But you've ruled that out.

Now, who knows, you may be right.

Let's hope so, anyway.

How is she? Much better. Still

a little dopey, though.

You gave her the sedative? Yes, at

7:
00 this morning like you said.

Good. I'll look in tomorrow.

Thank you, Doctor.

Think over what I said, Baxter.

Yes, of course.

Now, thank you, Doctor, and good-bye.

Good-bye.

May I see her now?

Yes, please do. She's so

looking forward to seeing you.

Henry.

Hello, darling.

Where have you been? You should

have met me from school.

I couldn't. I'm sorry.

Was it your wife?

She hates to be left alone.

Am I forgiven?

Yes, if you promise

to stay here for a while.

I'm afraid I can't this time.

Please, Henry. I need you,

honestly, I do, Henry.

You're the only one who understands.

Can I go to London with you?

Perhaps, but later.

When you're better.

Did the doctor say I was ill?

He said you needed rest.

Nothing else?

No, why?

You know why.

What he said only confirms

what I've known all along.

There's nothing wrong with you.

You won't let them take me away, will you?

Take you away? What on earth for? You won't?

No. Of course, I won't.

This is where you belong

and as far as I'm concerned...

this is where you're going to stay.

Now, I must be going.

Good-bye, my dear.

I'll see you soon.

Who is it?

Who's there?

I'm going to take these up to Mummy.

Take your coat off first.

No, afterwards.

I'm going to take these up to Mummy.

Take your coat off first.

I'm going to take these up to Mummy.

To Mummy. To Mummy.

To Mummy.

No. No, please, not here. Not here.

Please. It's all right, dear.

Everything's all right now.

Please don't make me stay here.

Would you like to sleep

somewhere else, miss?

Yes, please, John, please.

My room.

All right, John, you may go now.

Good night, Miss Janet.

Take these.

What happened, Janet?

Janet, what happened?

All right, now.

Don't leave me alone. Of course

not, if you don't want me to go.

I don't even know who she is.

I don't even know who she is.

Who?

How can you dream about

someone you don't know?

I've never met her before ever.

Grace, what does she want

from me? What does she want?

Dreams and imaginations can be

very strange at times.

Often, things happen

that we just can't explain.

Now go to sleep.

It's your birthday tomorrow.

You want to be fit for that.

Go to sleep.

Grace. Grace, are you there?

Grace, I thought everybody was out.

No.

Please, who are you? Please leave me alone.

What do you want?

No, don't come near me, please!

Go away, do go away. Please.

Why don't you leave me alone?

Please, please leave me alone.

Go away. Please go away.

Luckily I heard the mirror breaking,
