No, thank you, Miss Plimpton.
I'll see Miss Bowman out.
- Good night, Miss Bowman.
- Good night.
Is he here?
No, he's at school.
He boards.
- I'd love to see him.
- I know.
David, please. I didn't
come here to ask that, I swear.
I came here to see you.
I admit that.
It's just that
now that I am here...
I must ask you. Please.
I'm sorry, Jenny.
You can't see him.
Well, why not?
What's the matter with me?
Have I some dread disease
or some kind of...
What are you so afraid of?
What is it, David?
- I want to see him!
- It's impossible.
Impossible isn't a word that
very many people use with me.
It must come as rather
a surprise to you now.
- I want to see him.
- You cannot see him, Jenny.
We made an agreement
a long time ago...
an agreement that you wanted...
never to see him ever again.
Do you remember?
Yes, I remember.
That was a long time ago.
It's the only good thing
I ever made in my life.
Now I can't...
Well, forget it.
Tell me, does he like school?
I mean, any more
than anyone does?
Yes, he likes it very much.
Is he clever?
He's average.
Better at Mozart than maths.
Is he musical?
A little odd if not.
Yes.
And the rest?
I think you'd be proud of him.
- Let me see him.
- No.
- Just once.
- And then what?
Nothing. I go.
Look, Jenny, to see him now
would make it much harder...
for you, for me, for all of us.
And that's final?
Final.
enough of your time, David...
and I'd like to get out of here.
Where's my coat?
It's outside.
I'll call you a cab.
- No, thank you. I'd rather walk.
- It won't take a moment.
No, thank you.
I'd rather walk.
Don't bother to see me out.
I'll take care of myself.
Jenny.
What?
You forgot your prescription.
What does it say?
Three times a day before meals?
And shake the bottle.
It's good for what ails me?
Good night, David.
You've been very kind,
and thank you.
Jenny.
so much to you, wouldn't it?
To see him again?
Yes.
If I let you...
and mark these words...
if I let you...
you'll promise to look once
and never look again?
I promise.
All right.
Are you sure you want to go on?
Well, I can't stop now
or I'll sink.
Peel it, Joe, peel it!
Tell me, do all
the mothers do this?
Yes. But they usually wear
good woman's shoes.
Where is Matt? Is he...
No, he's with
that lot over there.
The under-14s.
Come on, Roger, don't fall!
Give me the ball!
Come on, Roger!
David, wait a minute.
Here.
- Are you holding?
- I'm holding.
more sensible shoes.
They're all yours.
I'll take this.
Come on, on to the under-14s.
Where is he, David? Where?
