baby's.

I'll come and pick you up

after school.

Okay?

I better get gone.

See you later.

how was school today?

They told us

about peter and emily,

And their mother.

They said we must

always stay together,

And tell someone

if we see a stranger.

We mustn't go

into the forest.

Don't' worry, sweetheart,

it won't be for too long.

Here.

You haven't had

too many sweeties today.

Here.

I'm gonna read you a story,

and then it's bedtime.

story about murders?

I think not, sweetheart.

Would you like

anything else?

I'm going to my room

to read.

Oh, neve..

Stop pushing me away.

We'll never get on

If you keep on treating us

like your enemy.

Neve, my sweet little kitten..

You can read downstairs,

with us.

I know it seems

like a nightmare,

But one day it'll be better,

you'll see.

Trust us.

Stop it, neve, please!

You're gonna wake up

ryan and lucy.

It's just for tonight, we can't

let you sleep on your own.

Wandering around

the countryside

Alone at night like that

is dangerous.

shh.

Aaah!

Aaah!

Neve, stop it.

That's enough now.

Stop screaming.

Neve, please, neve.

Stop it!

Neve..

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, sweetheart.

I just wanted you

to stop screaming,

And come to bed, I..

I just wanted you

to be a good girl.

No, no no.

No, neve, what are you doing?

Nat..

She'll sleep in her room,

but I'll stay with her.

It's just for one night.

Can block up her window

tomorrow.

Come along, neve.

Go to sleep, please.

It's late.

What the hell

are you doing?!

Who gave you these?

I got them from

the album downstairs.

I like them.

What gives you the right?

Who do you think you are?!

These are ours,

they're not yours!

I forbid you

to touch them!

Lucas, have you gone crazy?

She took those,

she was playing with them.

daddy!

You go to them,

I'll stay here.

Daddy!

Neve, why would you

take these?

This is our little girl,

mary.

The one who got sick,

do you remember her?

Why would you show them

to lucas?

It hurts us, we

we loved her so much.

Then why is she dead?

But neve..

That wasn't our fault.

She was seriously ill.

There was nothing

we could do.

And that had nothing to do

with her being ill.

Try and get some sleep now.

mary..

Mary..

Mary..

Hi, my name is olivia.

Welcome.

Neve, the other children

are in the garden.

Join them.

Look.

She's the prettiest doll

in the shop.

Do you like her?

Anne loves dolly parties.

Have you heard of them

before?

No.

I I want to go home.

I don't want it.

Ah, we we can't go home now,

sweetheart.

That wouldn't be very nice

for anne.

Anyway, I'm sure you'll play

lots of other things,

And there'll be cake,

and presents, and..

I think colette has even
