Sister.

I'm afraid you're

too late for soup.

I'm not hungry.

I need medicine.

You're hurt?

I need antibiotics.

I'm not allowed

to dispense antibiotics.

But you do it for people

who can't get into the system.

- Go to emergency.

- I can't.

Why not? If you don't

want to give your name,

just call yourself

Smith or something.

That would be a mistake.

- Why?

- My name is Smith.

Jones, then.

Sister...

I'm on the run

from a court-martial.

I was in a Special Forces unit.

There'll be no forgiveness.

How do you know

it's antibiotics you need?

I've got two broken ribs.

There's an infection

around one of the breaks.

If it spreads

to the bone, I'll die.

I've been wounded before.

If you drink alcohol

with these, they won't work.

I'll need painkillers.

Give me something

with dihydrocodeine.

Yes, sir.

I've asked around

about your friend Isabel.

How'd you know about Isabel?

Last night, don't you remember?

Did I come here last night?

Do something stupid?

You said you'd had some luck.

"God," you said.

( CAP CLICKING )

You don't believe?

So how do you explain

those new clothes?

I don't.

So what'd you find out

about Isabel?

She doesn't come

for food anymore.

If you see her, give her this.

Tell her she can come to me.

Tell her she can be safe.

- Who lives here?

- Me.

- Did you break in?

- I fell.

Did you hurt someone?

Only myself.

Do you know the boys

say you're an angel?

Good night, Joseph.

WOMAN ON TV:

The solid sterling silver.

You've got lots of pieces of solid

sterling silver and, of course...

there we go...

you can see all of that

from your hat pins to your...

uh... to your...

shepherd's hook,

your... your clasp,

your crimp beads,

and six meters of elastic,

your beading thread...

one large

and one small gift pack.

MAN ON RADIO:

...showers good.

40s, Cromarty,

Forth, Tyne, Dogger.

Easterly or northeasterly

four or five, occasionally...

MAN #2:
...Bible tells us,

you know, in Gethsemane,

talking to God and wanting to

not go through with this thing

and hesitating, you know.

And as all these

incredible things,

ISABEL'S VOICE:

JOEY, it's Isabel.

There's no need

to look for me. I'm okay.

And I'll just cause trouble.

I've agreed to work for them

for a few weeks

until I've got enough

for a deposit on a nice place.

Then I'll go back up north.

Thanks for lookin' after me, Joey, and

for thinkin' of me. When I get away from London,
