That's it.

That's water.

It is, ma'am.

Ah.

- Dehydrated otherwise.

- Mm.

There.

Okay.

Mm.

You should get into the bed.

Ma'am.

- Oh.

- There you are.

Are you warm enough there, Miss Duke?

Oh yeah, I'm... yeah.

Still a little confusing.

Who's that?

Let me... let me just slip that out.

Mm.

See? We have a wee temperature

of just over 99.

Just take these now.

What is that?

Antibiotics.

What I need now

is the strongest

pain pill known to man.

Okay, but take these first.

I remember leaving the clinic.

L... I...

remember being in the car.

But you know,

it's like a jigsaw puzzle

put together in my head.

And I...

I remember taking a drink.

A drink or two,

plus a few painkillers.

Oh.

Lafferty, did we f*** last night?

No, ma'am.

I don't know if you fitted the nurse

piece into your jigsaw puzzle.

Oh, sh*t.

I'm gonna get sued again.

No no no, I called

the clinic this morning.

I explained that you had

a bad reaction to the medication.

I told them that you

regretted the incident.

And I hope you don't mind,

but I took the liberty

of sending the nurse some flowers

and a wee gift certificate.

For how much?

- $5,000.

- Jesus.

All concerned agreed that the matter

is now completely closed.

Bet she spends it all

on Nazi memorabilia.

That's good.

Well done.

Will that be all, Miss Duke?

Yeah.

Mmm. Oh, but, Lafferty,

your outfit...

- Yes, ma'am?

- Um...

well, you look like

a goddamn undertaker.

I mean, you think you

could lighten up a little bit?

Of course.

I'll do that.

Miss Duke?

Can I help you, ma'am?

Yes, you can start on that.

My babies have outgrown

their pots

and I'm going to

repot them all.

Right you are.

- This one here, is it?

- This one.

Right here.

Take that out...

and then you'll cut it in half.

- Take it out?

- Mm-hm.

Here, let me help you.

There.

- Okay, now try.

- Okay.

You loosened...

loosened it up.

Mm-hm.

- There we go.

- That's it, that's it.

- And get your knife.

- All right.

And don't... here,

put it in the alcohol first.

Just one infected bulb

and they'll all go.

- That's it.

- In half?

Mm-hm.

Tough little creatures, huh?

And then any of the bulbs that don't

have leaves, you're gonna get rid of.

All right.

Then you can fill it up and you can clip

off the excess dried roots.

You can see which ones

they are with this.

L... I worked in a flower nursery

some time ago for a while.

And if I may say so,

Miss Duke,

you have one hell

of a collection of orchids.

Yes.

This is my newest baby.

All the way from Brazil.

It doesn't look like much now,

but wait until you

see it in bloom.

You know, my daddy...

he loved orchids.

And when he died,
