Estranged Page #3

Synopsis: January is forced to return home after six years traveling abroad. A near-fatal accident has left her temporarily wheelchair bound and depleted of her long-term memory. She is accompanied by her boyfriend 'Callum' whom she met whilst traveling. He was also the driver in the fateful accident. Not only has she forgotten her family, but her childhood as well and is surprised to discover that her home is a stately manor in the middle of the country-side. As January tries to settle in, she finds herself becoming even more estranged from her family, who just want their daughter back. The trouble is, January cannot remember who that she was, or why she ran away. Desperate to discover why she left all those years ago and with Callum's help, she sets out to find the truth. They soon discover the family are not as loving as they seem to be. Was there a dark reason why she left them in the first place?

to anyone like that.

Not at my table.

But I...

-You come back here

after all these years,

we allow

your worthless boyfriend...

-Don't call him that.

-You should be ashamed of yourself.

I am tired of you

behaving like an outsider.

You should never have left.

It's changed you.

You're not the same girl.

You're... you're not our Jan.

Your sister was doing

your washing the other day.

She came across a T-shirt.

You know what it said?

"Queen slut."

Do you know

what a slut is?

Why advertise yourself as one?

From now on, we are

going back to the old ways.

The way it was

before you left.

From now on, you will dress

as a proper girl.

Is that understood?

That boy was no good for you.

You need time to heal.

We are your family.

You don't need anyone else.

Don't you look pretty.

Jan, we were wondering...

We all do chores around here...

Thomas, bless him,

he can't do everything,

so we all pitch in.

I know you weren't very well,

but you can help out now.

It'll make you feel

like you're part of the family.

Might make you feel

closer to Mum.

Thomas.

Come here. Here. Here.

What are you doing?

Pick it up.

Oops-a-daisy.

Probably best

if you don't stand up. Careful.

Careful.

God, I'm so jealous of you.

I'd love a wheely chair.

Can you do tricks yet?

If I had a broken leg

or something

and had one of these,

first thing I'd be doing

is bunny hops

up and down the corridor.

When my head stops spinning,

I'll give it a go.

That bump on the noggin

really f***ed you up, didn't it?

Do you still smoke?

Yeah.

Laurence?

Yeah?

Why aren't you

and Katherine married?

'Cause we're brother

and sister?

You know what I mean.

Well, to be honest...

I don't know.

It's not like

I'm a virgin or anything.

I'm not ugly, am I?

You're not ugly.

There was a girl.

But I tried

to make it work.

But it didn't happen.

How about Katherine?

Some birds just

don't leave the nest.

You're definitely not a virgin.

How many?

I'm not telling you that.

Is it over 20?

I can't remember.

-I'll tell you how many I've had.

-I don't care.

Six. I've had six.

How many?

I'm not saying.

-Come on. You can tell me.

-No, I can't.

-I'm your bro.

-Are you?

You don't think so?

Well, you know how

we can prove it?

How?

Suck my cock.

It's not incest

if you don't think we're related.

And you did just say

I'm not ugly.

Is this a joke?

You tell me.

God, you really

are sick, aren't you?

When you were away,

I never stopped thinking about you.

I've never been out

of the county.

You've been all over the world.

I used to lie in bed

when I couldn't sleep

and imagine

what you were doing.

What you were seeing

at that very moment.
