Please leave.

What's going on?

Get out.

It's me.

- Who?

- Lu!!

What are you talking about?

Leave! Get out!

What's wrong with you?

Get out!

Get out!

Get out!

Get out!

Get out!

Dandan.

Your mother didn't recognize me.

Dandan. Come in.

We've been waiting for you.

Yu, I brought Dandan.

Mother.

What are you doing here?

Greet your father.

Greet your father for your mother.

So that she knows he's your father.

Go on, Dandan, greet your father.

What can she prove?

Ask her.

Did she acknowledge him before?

I don't want to see her.

It's pointless if you won't greet your father.

Yu, I'll tell you one last time.

Times have changed.

Lu has been rehabilitated.

We've received notification.

Official letters are normally classified.

There's an official letter?

NOTICE OF REHABILITATION

Lu.

He's alive and he's coming home.

I'll meet him at the train station tomorrow.

You don't have to. He's right here.

No, that's not him.

Comrade Yu.

Do you trust the Party?

Yes, I do.

Am I the Party representative?

Then shouldn't you trust me?

Yes, I should.

Good.

Come in.

In the name of the Party, I assure you...

This man right here

is your husband Comrade Lu.

Yu.

I know who he is.

He's Fang.

Mr. Fang.

I don't want him in my home.

You should ask him to leave.

I don't want him here.

Make him go away.

That's how she is now.

Some days are worse than others.

She looks all right. It's her mind.

If Teacher Yu doesn't want you here,

we can't risk upsetting her.

We'll find a place for you to stay.

Xu.

Is the store next to the kiosk still empty?

- Yes.

-You can stay there for now.

I thank the Party.

Also, you can go back to work now.

Do you want your job back?

Given her condition, I'll wait.

Okay, one step at a time.

Deputy...

Who is this Fang?

He was a Party official.

Yu had been asking him to help you.

Could we bring him over

to help her remember?

That's not going to help.

He was transferred to the suburbs

and we lost contact.

I'll get the door.

It's not much.

Xu. Let's tidy it up a bit.

Okay, I'll find someone.

- It's just temporary.

-I'm okay.

It has its benefits.

It's close to Yu's place,

just across the street.

I'll tell you something.

- Yu doesn't lock her door.

- Why not?

Ever since that night you couldn't get in

she stopped looking the door.

She's always saying,

"I must never lock Lu out again."

How did your mother end up like this?

- Has she seen a doctor?

- Yes, he said it's psychogenic amnesia.

- Psychogenic amnesia?

- Yes, psychogenic amnesia.

- How long has it been?

- Over a year now.

Can she manage day to day?

Yes.

- She doesn't get lost?

- No.

Dandan.
