They sent me home.

Oh.

He sends his love.

How long have

you got off now?

Only three days.

Oh.

Yeah. You know me.

I'm back.

Oh, sorry.

How long

has she been asleep?

What's the matter with you?

Cat got your tongue?

Have you taken my calendar?

Huh?

Have you taken my calendar?

No, I have not.

What would I want

with your calendar?

Don't be ridiculous.

You've taken it.

I have not taken it.

Yes, you have.

I don't know what

you're talking about.

What calendar?

Where is it?

Bess, you've got to

stop all this, you know.

You've got to go on living

when he isn't here.

I mean, he's not dead.

You're not dead.

You know what I mean?

You've got to stop it.

Shh. It's all right.

It's nothing.

What's going on?

Go back to sleep.

It's all right.

Was that Bess?

No. It's ok.

It's all right.

Bit of hysterics.

No, no. It's all right.

I'll sort it out.

We're not to have this

carry on in the house.

I know. Just stay where you are.

Go back to sleep.

It's terrible.

Bess McNeill, for many years,

you've prayed for love.

Shall I take it away

from you again?

Is that what you want?

Oh, no.

I'm still grateful for love.

What do you want, then?

I pray for Jan to come home.

He will be coming

home in ten days.

You must learn to endure.

You know that.

Oh, I can't wait.

This is unlike you, Bess.

Out there, there are people

who need Jan and his work.

What about them?

They don't matter.

Nothing else matters.

I just want Jan home again.

I pray to you.

Oh, please,

won't you send him home?

Are you sure

that's what you want?

Yes.

Ok. Get her up.

Blow out!

Get away!

Blow out!

Terry!

Terry!

Terry! Terry!

Terry!

Talk to me, will you?

Watch out!

Jan!

Go get... get a medic!

I don't know what kind of

condition he's in.

I think it's very serious, though.

I don't quite know.

It's Jan. There's been

an accident on the rig.

Jan, can you hear me?

Oh.

What are you doing?

I'm holding your hand.

Don't touch me.

Don't touch me!

Jan, relax.

Just take...

Sit down here.

All right.

All right.

Shh. Deep breath.

Hello.

Talk to me, darling.

Talk to me.

Talk to me.

Come on.

It's all right.

It's all right.

It's going to be all right.

Uh, they're going

to operate straightaway.

It will be a few hours,...

...so I think we better wait...

Bess.

Bess, you can't go in there.

It's not allowed.

I want to be with him.

I know you do.

I know.

But come on. Come with me.

Come on.

No. I want to see him

all the time.

Bess, it's not a good idea.

Come on.

Bess. Bess, please,

you can't stay here.

It's just not possible.

Bess!

Can I have

a word with you?

Stay there, all right?

Don't move.

I want you
