The Constant Gardener Page #2

Justin, please don't say that sentence. Sorry. Sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry. That's really-

Just yes or no?

Well, we-we hardly know one another. I mean-

You can learn me.

Learn you? Mmm.

Yes or no?

Then I-

Oh. A gift.

Oh, thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you so much. It's beautiful.

- Hey. - Arnold.

That's so nice.

- Isn't it beautiful? - Yeah.

They made it for me.

Hey, Mr. Bluhm.!

Careful.

Ooh. Take my hand.

What did you give her, Arnold?

Nevirapine. The government clinic didn't have any again.

Jomo. Yes, Mama Tessa?

Have you had your test yet?

No. Jomo.

If she's H.I.V. Positive, chances are you are too.

Look, Dr. Bluhm, I really must go.

We can talk about this later. Thank you. Take you minutes.

- Woodrow is very particular about time. I will be in trouble. Bye. - I'll see you later.

Jesus!

You shouldn't be wandering around in this heat.

Arnold, stop fussing. You're as bad as Justin.

If you were my wife, I'd tie you to the bed.

Then what would you do, Doctor?

That's another story.

Tell me what you'd do. Hey!

All right.

Now, for the first time,

we are exploring a new territory.

This is a new discovery...

for the famous marine biologist-

Jacques Cousteau.

You are a voyeur.

It's fantastic.

Now we are going down, down, down.

Oh, what do we have here?

Zoom.!

Wipe it. I must keep this new discovery for posterity...

and admire the new person inside.

You have to go wipe this. Go and wipe it.

Wipe it right now. No, I can't wipe it. I'm completely inept with computers.

- I'm gonna keep it. I'm sorry. I love it.

Will you see who that's from, darling? Sure.

What is it? What?

The e-mail.

Oh, it's, um-

It's just junk- some ad.

- For? - For the Nairobi Hilton.

Oh, my b*obs hurt.

Would you, uh, mind, uh-

Weekend package deal.

Two nights for the price of one. Mmm. Two guests for the price of one.

Sweetheart, would you come and make yourself useful?

Yeah, I'm coming.

My darling. Sweetheart, I'd like you to put this up right in the middle.

Right? Yeah.

So, um-

Right there. Mm-hmm.

What do you think? I think it's gorgeous.

I think it's very tangled. No, no, no.

I meant- I meant about a weekend at the Hilton.

Oh, no. It's a bit flashy for my taste. Is it?

Mm-hmm. Oh. I wouldn't know. I- I've never been there.

Well, I have. I was there the other night meeting someone with Arnold.

Oh, well, just a thought.

Sweetheart.

Were you just inviting me away for a dirty weekend at the Hilton?

Mm-hmm. Were you?

I would love to,

but maybe after... Arturo is born. Oh, Tessa.

We're not calling him Arturo, please.

Why not? No. Not- Not Arturo...

or Giuseppe- All right. Then what about...
