with him, no?

My wonderful Harry.

May I keep it?

- Yes, of course.

You're OK?

Yes.

I'm glad you're here.

I had a terrible nightmare

about my father.

You were his little princess.

My dad loved me.

His arms around me so strong...

so strong.

Then he left.

He should never have left you alone.

Nobody could have saved him.

Not you, not me, not your mother.

My mother?

My mother didn't love him enough.

She never stopped loving him.

That's the tragedy.

And you?

You were the only man

that made her laugh.

You're leaving? Where are you going?

- Away, mum, far away.

Why are you so angry?

Why did you lie to me

for all those years?

To protect you.

Dad left us alone.

I want to know why.

He forgot about us.

- I don't believe you.

I know why you don't want me

to see Jacobi.

Dad killed himself

and you kept it away from me.

Finally.

That's four hours

I'm waiting for you.

I've been working for two.

The boss came by earlier.

He was furious.

He said 'I'm going to fire that b*tch.'

- Did he say that?

I always work hard, always on time,

never absent.

He's going to fire you.

Why don't you leave now?

I'll work for both of us.

You have to continue

to fill the boxes.

And you have to start up

a new batch of hearts.

Everything has to be ready

by 07:
00 a.m.

Good luck.

Did you see the doctor?

- Yes.

It wasn't an accident.

She needs you.

Only you can help her through.
