Hello!

Keep your voice down.

Look.

I have your jacket.

Yeah.

I'll get it tomorrow.

What?

Look.

It could've waited

Till the morning.

Is that all

You have to say?

Look, I'm really sorry

About the zoo, Paquita.

It's just mum.

She's...

You know.

I'd like to...

We go out again?

To a movie?

But it's not...

It's just not possible.

Look...

Not possible?

But we are romantically

Entangled.

Entangled?

Oh, Look...

Look, I don't know

What you're thinking,

But, Um...

I just can't see you

Anymore.

Oh, Paquita.

There will be

One romance...

And it shall last

Forever.

Mum, What a beautiful day.

I'm gonna call

Nurse mctavish.

No. You'll do

No such thing.

I'm perfectly

All right.

But...

You look after me,

Lionel.

Nora matheson.

Ladies welfare league.

Your mother's

Expecting us.

The mathesons are here.

No, Mum.

You're not well!

Get my dress!

Jeez.

Please go back to bed,

Mum.

I'll put them off.

It's only the mathesons.

It's the w.L.W.L.

Sorry.

Careful.

It'll stick on crooked.

Ok.

Our...

Main objective

Next year,

Is to...

Get the younger

Generation

Involved

In the league.

That's why

I'm so pleased

That you're on

The committee.

Thank you, Nora.

It's a great... Honor.

H- Have you had

Any thoughts

On the agenda for

The annual meeting?

Annual meeting.

Annual meeting.

Ann...

Ann...

What we need's

Another war!

Yes, Dear.

I hear

Sir Edmund Hillary's

Planning an attempt

On the south pole.

Right you go.

Have some more beans,

Mrs. Matheson.

I'll have

A few of those, Lad.

I really think

We should be going.

Thank you, Lionel.

What?

No pudding?

Only custard,

I'm afraid.

Custard!

I haven't had

A good custard in years.

She never

Makes the stuff.

Damn fine custard.

Mmm.

Rich and creamy,

Just the way I like it.

Touchy on

The old food front, Eh?

Never mind.

That was

A fine meal, Boy.

Thank you,

Mr. Matheson.

Lionel!

What's wrong?

Lionel,

You must listen to me.

Dark forces are amassing

Against you.

My grandmama has seen it.

Say, "The path ahead

Is one of fear

And great danger."

Eh?

Fernando!

Paquita, Wait!

God, Mum.

Oh, Fernando.

Your mother ate my dog!

Not all of it.

Get nurse McTavish, Quick.

How long has your mother

Been like this?

Since this morning.

Oh. I'll call

An ambulance.

You pack some things

For the hospital.

I'll do it.

Nurse McTavish.

Your mother's dead,

Lionel.

I'm sorry, Lionel.

There was nothing

We could do.

She loved you very much.

Which toothbrush?

Lionel!

Your mother's

Toothbrush...

The white one

Or green one?

Green!
