OK, it's OK, it's OK. I'm here.
I'm here. It's all right.
It's OK. Now, breathe.
Breathe.
Look at me and breathe.
In and out.
In and out.
That's it.
That's it.
Now, don't worry.
The baby is fine.
What have you done to me?
What?
You've had a bad fall.
No, I don't know you.
Get away from me.
I know this isn't right.
I shouldn't be here.
Wait a minute.
James?
This will help you remember.
Here we go.
Do you remember me now?
Well, must be the fall.
The fall?
You've been unconscious for two weeks.
Oh, Anna.
Anna?
Your name?
Hey.
Oh!
Look who's awake.
Well, I'll leave you two to it.
Wait, who's he?
Sweetheart.
James is your husband.
Who's that?
Maybe James will help you remember.
I promise.
I won't go far.
Now, I think the fall has knocked some memories out
of her.
Peter will be so happy you've come round.
Not too long.
She needs her rest.
Dr. Henry says the baby is doing fine.
Who's she?
Helen.
And Peter?
Her husband.
He's been helping us with the farm
while we've been looking after you.
He'll be along soon enough.
It's all my fault. I was late.
You came looking for me.
You slipped.
I'm sorry.
This must be a lot for you to take in.
There'll be loads of time to talk
when you're rested and ready.
Tell me about this.
That?
That is your first day on the island.
Island?
Yeah.
We live on an island, far away from it all.
What happens when it comes?
I've delivered before.
And the doctor comes regularly from the mainland,
so you have no need to worry.
Do you have babies?
I, um...
I did.
But he died.
Where's my family?
You never knew your parents.
James says that's why this baby is so important to you both.
Right.
Well, we will have you up walking and about in no time.
We have big hopes for you, little one.
Hmm.
Yes, we do.
Steady as you go.
Anna.
This is Peter, my husband.
Good to see you up and about.
These are for you.
Right.
Let's sit.
I wish you wouldn't keep carrying that old thing
around with you.
Any dizzy spells?
That's good.
And no physical discomfort?
Yes, of course.
It's just...
Well, isn't this fun?
There you go, Peter.
I don't know you people.
You can't keep me here.
Oh, I know.
We're not.
Why can't I remember anything?
You are doing very well.
Oh, baby.
I've got an idea.
Oh, such a glorious day.
And then, I just remembered, the weather turned, didn't it?
Oh, James, it's so lovely to see all this again, isn't it?
Oh, look at you, Anna.
Gorgeous.
Oh.
Does that bring back anything?
Maybe going outside to help jog a memory?
No, no, no, no, she needs her rest.
Goats.
We have goats.
Amazing.
You remember something?
I can't believe it.
Now, this calls for some music.
Careful, James.
She's not a plaything.
Come on.
A new development.
This calls for a celebration.
Dance.
How big is the island?
Oh, it's only small.
Peter and I live on the other side.
It's a little more sheltered over there.
Is there anyone else?
No.
No, just us.
Shouldn't you be over there?
Oh, no.
Getting you better is what's important now.
And I'm happy to help.
Ah, we'll be checking the lobster pot.
Come on.
Careful as you go.
What's that?
Oh, wow.
That is a snow globe.
Wow.
Here we go.
Oh, the storm must have washed it up.
Come on.
Let's keep going.
Exercise is good for the baby.
Overall, how has she been doing?
She's adapted very widely, taking everything in her stride.
It's really quite impressive.
Sounds good.
There's been nothing...
Oh, Anna.
Anna.
Anna, Dr. Henry has come to see how you're doing.
Hello, Anna.
Helen here tells me that your memory has gone missing.
Do you remember me?
Well, I am very forgettable,
so I won't take offense.
Please sit down.
First things first.
I'm just going to do a quick examination
to make sure everything's OK with you and baby.
Now.
Hold still there for me.
Just stay still for me there, Anna.
OK.
You're healing very well.
Mm-hmm.
Mm.
Here.
Have a listen.
How long until it comes?
Oh, I'd say two weeks.
Proud father?
Anything to report?
All's well, sir.
How's she doing?
Well as it should be.
You remember goats?
