Clean, washed up, kids, all the sh*t, but here: Irina.

You like being called Suzy Lush?

Who cares? Separate, always.

In the boot Suzy, at home with my child Adam, with my friends, Luisa.

Forget, sh*t happens.

You're round.

Been working hard?

Are you ignoring me?

I do think you've been just teenious but selfish, don't you? Sneeking off

to heaven's know where. Leaving your closest friend. We had some kind of race or something?

Maggs! Maggs, slow down.

Maggs! What - Oh, for god's sake

What's got into you?

Maggs! Maggie, what's going on?

Please Jane, I'm late.

Late? Late for what?

Late for work.

Late for work? Oh.

You've got a job?

What job? Where?

- I've got to go.

- You're blushing.

I'm not. I've got to go.

Don't follow me. Just don't.

A job?

A job? Where?

Where indeed.

Doing what?

She wouldn't say.

Why not?

Maggie can't do anything, can she?

Oh, God! Yes!

P 750.

What?

Nothing.

This one.

Hi Nana!

Look what I've found.

Lying in the street.

No, you didn't.

I can't stay long.

Why not? You're never here anymore.

Well, I've got things to do, Mr.

Like trying to make sure you get better.

How?

It's a secret!

I like secrets.

Yes, but the thing about a secret is that it has to stay a secret.

And it will be a long time before a can tell you this one.

So, remember:
shh! It's a secret.

Maggie!

You didn't tell us you were coming.

A flying visit, you know, to keep him ??

You look in a bit of a hurry. Doing something special?

No, not really, few things to do.

I must go.

You're good.

Thank you.

Not many women have your touch.

I tried you out.

You tried me out?

You have - How to say?

When?

Yesterday. Of course I tried you out.

I have to know. If I don't know how do I build your future?

I want you to work more, longer. Evenings.

You can became big earner.

I need P 6,000.

It's not a problem with you hands.

Now, I need it now.

That's it, I have enough of this.

Where are you going? P 6,000 is a lot!

I don't have time to become a big earner.

Why?

Okay, if I give you... If!

What do I get?

I'll earn P 800 a week minimum.

I will work for 10 more weeks.

So you get you're P 6,000 and can keep all the rest as interests.

Okay. If you cheat me, I'll find you, and I'll kill you.

For the flights, the hotel, for the... well, you know, thing usual.

It's enough, isn't it?

I think I better go.

It'll be ready tomorrow.

Where did you get it?

Always the right elbow...

I don't know how to do it.

Where did you get the money?

Well the stitch won't show, I hope.

Mom, this is a lot of money, where did you get it?

Listen to me! This if you're gonna need it out there.

Mom, can we just stop this for a second, please, this is creepy.
