It's The Only

Way It'll Work.

Keep An Eye On Georgia,

She's Manic-Depressive.

Keep Her Away

From The River.

I'm Always Afraid

She'll Fall In And Drown, Or Jump.

Afraid Or Hoping?

Very Funny.

Um...

Keep This On You

At All Times

In Case I Need

To Contact You.

All Right?

[ Sigh ]

God, Ellie,

This Is Insane!

I Could Be Shut

Down For This.

If That Little Sh*t,

Mr. Evans,

Comes Snooping Around...

We've Just Had

An Inspection.

He Won't Be Back

For Months.

That's Not How

Mr. Evans Works.

Anyway...

I'll Send A Temp

As Fast As I Can.

Worst Case Scenario,

The Staff Will Be

Back On The 28Th.

That's A Week Away.

I Said, "Worst Case".

I Just Can't

Afford To Lose

Any More

Residents, Ellie.

You Really

Need To Be... Look, I'll Be Nice To Them,

Look, I Promise.

Will You Call Me

When You Get There?

All Right, Okay.

[ Sigh ]

Hi.

Hi. Here You Go.

And A Miss Nightingale,

Hazel?

Yeah.

Sign There, Please.

[ Footsteps ]

No, I Had A Very,

Very Bad Experience

With Mushrooms.

Now, Miss Harris

Knows That.

Where Is She?

Our Mother

Isn't Very Well.

So, Kate Has Gone

To Look After Her.

Well, If Miss Harris

Is Not Here, Who Is?

Well, Only Me,

I'm Afraid.

I Think She Means:

"Anyone Of Any

Consequence".

Well, How Long Is

Miss Harris Going To Be Away For?

Well, It Could Be

Until After Christmas

Now, I Don't Know.

Oh, No This Is Not

Good Enough. No.

We Pay Good Money

To Be Here

And We Don't Need

To Put Up With This.

[ Chuckling ]

Well, Where Would You

Two Raconteurs Go To?

That Is, If You Can

Get Your Sister

To Go Out Of

The Front Door.

[ Chuckle ]

Santa Della Maria

Della Rosa, Actually.

Oh, Please, Go!

And Regale Them

All With Stories

Of Your Fabulous Love

Lives And Your Careers.

Ellie:

Santa Rosa Della Maria

Is Closed For

Christmas Now. And...

Georgia Is Banned

From Santa Rosa, Anyway,

So She Can't

Go Anywhere.

So, It Looks Like

We're Just Stuck With Each Other.

It Seems The

Only Way To Leave Here Is In A Box.

What About Me Soup?

Ellie:

You Can Have Chicken Noodle,

Classic Vegetable,

Carrot And

Coriander Soup,

Potato And Leek Soup,

Pea Soup, If You Like.

You Could Have

Mutton Broth,

Or You Can Have

Lobster Bisque.

Oxtail Soup,

Mmm!

Or You Can Have

French Onion Soup.

It All Comes

Out Of A Tin,

So It Makes No

Difference To Me.

What Would You Like?

[ ]

[ Electronic Beep ]

[ ]

[ Telephone Ringing ]

[ ]

Georgia? Hello?

Man:
[ On Tv ]

I Expect You've Got An Ailment

And I've Got The Cure.

We'll Beat The Loath

From Your Body

And Every Morning You

Come Here To Work...

[ Spraying ]

Georgia, What's Wrong?

There's A Bluebottle

Buzzing.

What?

A Bluebottle, Buzzing!
