The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel Page #2

We can't wait any longer.

We need to put this flat on the market and

at least start paying off Dad's debts.

I've talked it through

with Polly and the boys.

Of course, we all agreed.

Ma will come and live with us.

I think that's best, Evelyn.

And it's what Hugh

would have wanted.

Good. Well, that's settled.

End of discussion.

Oh! That's just what your

father used to say- Ma.

When there'd never been

any discussion at all.

I want to look after

things for you.

What, like he did for 40 years?

Look how that turned out.

How on earth do we know

what Hugh would have wanted?

And would he have seen Ht

to tell us anyway?

Obviously,

the flat's got to be sold.

And you're very kind,

and dear Polly.

But I shan't be

coming to live with you.

You need a new hip,

Mrs. Donnelly.

It's not a difficult operation.

That's easy for you to say.

You're not having it.

Regardless.

You do need a new hip.

- I'm not gettin' it from you.

- Not me personally, no.

- No, none of your lot.

- I see.

When do I have the operation?

I'm afraid you'll be on the waiting

list for at least six months.

At my age,

I can't plan that far ahead.

I don't even buy green bananas.

There is another way.

Our hospital trust is funding

a pilot scheme...

that will enable us to outsource

you to another hospital...

where they can perform the

procedure almost immediately...

and at a fraction of the cost.

Is it local?

They cover the

cost of the flight out apparently.

When did you get a computer?

How far along

is the progress bar?

That thing at the top.

It tells you- I know what it is, Ma.

What are you

showing me anyway?

Come and spend

your autumn years in an Indian palace...

with the sophistication

of an EngliSh country manor:

Tucked away on the outskirts of Juipur, and

graced wiih breathtaking surroundings-

" Lofty terraces,

open courtyards,

domes, arches...

and canopied balconies

abound with opulent comfort.

Indeed, the entire buildihg

exudes historical ambience...

and transports one back in time to

the proud tradition of the Rej.

Is that good?

It is. It is.

Very good.

Thirty-six years, four months since

the day we were called to the bar,

and you've never once

talked about India.

Do you want

any of these books?

You might be needing them again.

Mrs. Megson. Sir?

I want you to have this.

Are you sure?

Oh, absolutely.

Th-There's a little crack there

just on the bottom,

but I think you know something

about that already.

I used to live there...

a long time ago.

There won't be

any golf courses.

Well, that's just as well.

I can't afford the green fees.

But a retirement home?

It's a luxury development...
