This happened last year,
a week before Christmas,
... about 80 kilometers
Los Angeles.
Mrs. Harper was ...
drive to Los Angeles y ...
Mom? Mom, where are you going?
- Mr. Darby is Ted?
- His name?
- Mrs. Harper. I want to see him.
- One moment.
If you have a call, excuse,
already know where I am.
Ok, I will.
Mr. Darby Quere
to wait at the bar.
At the bar?
This time will be talking ...
This guy has it.
Yesterday saw my bet of 50.
I do not think the game was clean.
It is too early
to serve something, miss.
- No problem.
- Do not take. Ten minutes.
Good day.
- Good morning. Where is it?
- You're at the bar.
- Mrs. Harper?
- Yes
Ted Darby. Pete, let them.
- So you're the mother of Bea.
- Yes, sir Darby and ...
I did not know she had
a mother so young.
They look very similar.
- I can not offer anything.
What I have to say
be quick.
Continue, please.
I do not want to return
to see my daughter.
This is not that Bea should decide?
I do not think. It's just a girl.
- Has 17 years.
- 18 next month.
Seventeen, Mr. Darby.
And it is clear that no age
to know what suits you.
Mrs. Harper, nothing happens.
Bea likes to get out and meet
interesting people. I'll give you that.
You can leave without you. I do not want
that Bea skirt with people like that.
Hope you're not judging
this temporary situation.
- ... Mrs. Harper. My apartment ...
- I know what kind of person you are.
- I've been checking.
- What Bea thinks of all this?
Do not say anything and I will not do
because you will not see her anymore.
Yes?
Yes, and I'll do whatever
necessary to prevent.
- I think we should talk about it.
- There's nothing to talk about.
Sure. You were very
frank. And I will be.
I did not know how much it bothered
to come out with Bea ...
And now ... I know, I
collaborate, want to help.
I think in agreement
We can hit everything.
Why is it so important to you
who miss Bea?
- Very important.
- I mean in monetary terms.
Otherwise I can not promise
I shall not return to see her, ma'am.
Do not worry, Mr. Darby.
Facilitated me things.
Can I talk to her and not have
that worrying about nothing ...
And know when ...
what you feel for her.
Goodbye, Mr. Darby.
Operator.
Call me with Balboa.
Harper 2626. Miss Harper.
Mom, How was Los Angeles
without telling us anything?
He had things to do.
- I'll put a new horn.
- It's late. Poe shirt, David.
Alright.
Santa?
How's it going?
Why not say it would
to Los Angeles this morning?
I wanted to go to a store
before that had a lot of people.
Sybil, or turn it off? I hear
the outcome of races.
I do not know that
wants to hear, Mr. Harper.
Hello, Mrs. Harper.
Never won.
- Sybil, where is Bea?
- I have not seen during the afternoon.
It is the fourth lady
using the shower again.
- Is that you, Mom?
- Yes, Bea.
When finished showering
I want to talk to you.
I know.
How do you know?
Mom. how can I
so humble, going to see Ted?
It was also humiliating for me.
I'm not used
to deal with people like him.
- Do you know what kind of man is?
- Yes I know.
- Will you tell me that looks bad.
- Yes
dirty and horrible.
When Ted called, commented
would you say that.
A moment.
I spoke to expect, Bea.
He also said that is
not willing to see you again?
Economically ... if you make it up?
I think not.
Do not think that will invent
something like that, right?
Ted said he made a drama,
He was very nervous ...
angry. You misunderstood.
Do not misunderstand.
He made clear his intentions.
Mom, do you think it means
people ...
But ... is very antiquated.
I could not understand
a man like Ted.
Neither want.
- Sybil, have spent my blouse?
- I have not had time.
I asked an hour ago.
Bea, do not talk well with Sybil.
Sybil, do not need
clean down there today.
Let's not lose your cool.
Let's be reasonable, this man ...
Mommy, I do not want to discuss it anymore.
The issue is not willing to discuss.
Not come to see this man.
Promise me.
I can not promise you, mother.
Not?
So do not come back to Los Angeles.
Send you to a hospital.
- Would you make such cosa.
- I just do.
This does not separate us.
We'll see you in some way.
Bea, to represent. There should
back to see him. Ended.
Dress up and store your clothes.
Mommy, can not trust me?
I'm not having an affair
with him, if that's what you think.
Bea, I made the mistake
to indulge.
Your father wanted
it was the university ...
And ... I went in his favor for
it was the art school ...
He did not like the ...
people who would be exposed.
choose better friends.
He was right I did not.
if he followed his father.
It's hard to understand you
because it is still a girl.
I would have done the
even at your age.
The difference is that today
17 years ...
Bea, I will not be
all day discussing it.
- Do not do this again ...
- Mrs. Harper!
- A call. Philadelphia.
Is your father.
How's son?
Do not tell me, Tom
- Fantastic.
- Can I speak to your grandfather?
One moment, son.

- You have to see it, this ...
- Let me talk to him, David.
