Never Let Me Go Page #4

---

Does that mean

you want to be alone?

I'm not even saying

that I'll apply

to be a carer.

Just that several people

have said that

I'd be good at it.

But then Laura went around

telling everyone

that I'd been saying

I was the most likely

to get selected.

That's so not true.

So not true.

Thank you.

I'm getting

more plates.

Is there

anything left for us?

I don't know.

Perhaps not.

Ruth, why do you

do that thing?

Squeezing

Tommy's shoulder.

I'm allowed

to touch Tommy,

aren't I?

It's the way

you're touching him.

You know what I mean.

It's copied from

that television show.

That's so not...

Don't tell me

"that's so not true."

All that behavior,

that's not what people do

out there, in real life,

if that's what

you were thinking.

So what? Look,

it's no big deal.

A lot of us do it.

What you mean is

Chrissie and Rod do it.

Oh, Kathy.

So that's what

this is about.

It must be really

awful for you,

surrounded by

all these couples.

I never said that.

I just think it's daft.

You copy them,

and they copy from

a television show.

I'm right,

aren't I?

You don't like the fact

that Tommy and I are friends

with Chrissie and Rod,

whereas you hardly

speak to anyone.

No. You're not right.

"So" not right?

Thank you, Mr. Keffers.

Hello, Tommy.

Hello, Kath.

Well, don't just

hover in the doorway.

Come in. Join the fun.

Didn't know you liked

that sort of stuff.

You're very welcome to them

after I've finished.

Oh, no,

it's just sex stuff.

I expect I've seen

them all already anyway.

Kathy, what are

you looking for?

What do you mean?

I'm just looking

at dirty pictures.

What, just for kicks?

I suppose you could

say that, yes.

If it's just for kicks,

then you don't do it

like that.

You need to look

at each picture

more carefully.

Nothing really happens

if you go that fast.

How do you know

what works for girls?

Kath, you're not

looking for kicks.

Here, give it to Ruth.

See if it does

anything for her.

Hi.

I suppose you've heard

what Rod and Chrissie

have been saying.

No, I haven't.

Well, you know that

Rod and Chrissie

have been thinking

of applying

to be carers,

so they've been

learning how to drive.

Yeah.

Well, last weekend,

they went up to a town

on the Norfolk coast,

and they think

they saw this person.

What kind of person?

A lady

working in an office.

And...

What is it, Ruth?

But they thought

this person

was a Possible.

For me.

They found

your Original?

They aren't sure,

obviously,

but Rodney

said that the resemblance

was really striking.

Oh, my God. Ruth!

I know.

They want to drive me

back up there so that

I can see for myself.

Tommy will come, but...
