She's not infertile.

She's pregnant.

Here, this belongs to Tiny.

There is no letter. What's more,

I've never been examined.

I'm as fertile as anything.

I get pregnant from sitting in wet grass.

Henneman asked me to give you this.

Infertile as a result of inflammations...

- Enough.

What it boils down to is

that you told Henneman the truth...

...to get rid of him and that you lied to me

to marry me.

Or not?

All right, because I'm no longer

asking for your hand in marriage...

...there's no point in waiting for your

parents. Give them my regards.

What's the last word?

Erm... hourglass.

- Let me have a look.

Yes, hourglass. Well done.

Bye, old chap.

Something the matter?

Hey, are you ill?

That's normal when you're pregnant.

Now what's up?

I've had a miscarriage.

You make your bed, you lie in it.

It's a sin. They say that God punishes

but here He's offered a solution.

She could have married well.

That superintendent has a good future.

Let's go to bed.

Wait...

Your last wages.

You're going to do the housekeeping.

Mother is too ill.

That means I can never go out.

- Exactly.

At last, there you are.

I thought you were ill.

Go and make some tea.

Be nice to Grandma.

Here's your guest again.

Good to see you, young Albert.

Wait for me, we're going into town.

Looking for something?

- The woman who lives above the place.

She left. Years ago.

She runs a dog kennel

in the industrial estate.

I'm in trouble, young Albert,

because of a dirty woman.

She'll have to suffer for it,

never mind the consequences.

Is that why you put that knife

in your bag?

What are you going to do?

- Scare her or stab her. I'll have to see.

If something nasty happens,

get out and wait for me at the bus stop.

What do you want?

I might leave my dog Bobby here

for the holidays.

I'll lock up the Bouvier first.

You don't have a dog.

- She doesn't know that.

Don't I know you?

I wouldn't know why.

I don't know if my Bobby

would like it here.

It stinks and it's airless.

They get high quality dog food

three times a day...

...and clean water all the time.

And they get taken out every day.

I keep thinking I know you

from somewhere.

We did meet once, when you lived

over the fish market.

There was also such a stench then.

I've never lived over a fish market.

I don't know you.

I thought I did, but I was wrong.

Not true. I came to see you upstairs.

There was a stench of rotting eel.

You're mistaken.

I have never seen you before.

And my kennel is full up.

That woman did some really evil things,

young Albert.

Things your mother knows about.

What evil things?

- I should've killed her.

But that would be something worse...
