The Waiting City Page #2

to - to see Didi now?

You will need to telephone

Didi Chatterjee directly

to make an appointment.

She's your case manager.

It's just that we've come

all the way from Australia.

Fee. Fee. It's just -

Mr. and Mrs. Simmons.

Do you have us

in there somewhere?

It's just a phone call, Fee.

This is a circus.

Dhanyabad.

Thank you.

I just wanted to check

the pronunciation of your name.

It's Didi Chatterjee?

DIDl:
Yes. I'm looking forward

to meeting you.

We're looking forward

to meeting you as well.

Sorry, I didn't catch that.

Hello?

Didi?

I'm not quite sure

what happened there.

Do we have an appointment?

Fiona.

Garth, Debron have finally

agreed to negotiate.

So we need to get you

on a plane this afternoon.

We've got to set up a conference

with the elders.

This deal has got to be

completely transparent.

Can you -?

Ben, I've got it.

Can you -

can you call me back?

Hello? Didi?

Excuse me? Two weeks?

No, I don't think

that's gonna be possible.

That - that's just my other phone.

Can you -

can you hang on one sec?

Garth.

Can you hang on one moment?

Garth, I need you to, uh,

talk to Ben for a second.

Hello?

Yeah, hi, Garth.

Hello? Didi? Hello?

I think that Didi woman

just hung up on me.

Ben?

So, I finally got through

to Didi Chatterjee.

Yeah, and...?

We have an appointment

in two days.

Okay, that's good.

You feel better?

Yeah.

I was thinking of going for a swim.

I wouldn't risk it if I were you.

I don't know.

Looks clean to me.

Go on, jump in, then.

Hey.

I didn't mean to snap at you before.

I think it's just easier

if one of us handles the agency.

And who picked you?

Hey, hey, hey.

Sorry.

Fee.

This way!

Ben!

Ben?

No need to be alarmed, my dear.

I didn't see it.

Come, I'll give you something.

I'll give you something.

This is for welcoming you

to Calcutta.

For you and... for her.

She is standing by you?

It's just me here.

Is this your mother standing by you?

Thanks.

I got dragged off by this guy.

I thought you'd come with me.

I want to get my camera.

I want to film that.

What?

Nothing, I just - I thought

I'd lost you for a minute.

- You all right?

- Yeah.

Is that, um, clean?

Yeah, very clean.

Is it from bottled water?

Yeah, bottled water.

So, what, you boiled it?

Yep, yep.

- Sure - are you sure?

- Yeah, I'm sure.

You want to play?

Take that.

This is a song

a lot of the kids sing.

You want me to play this for you?

Here, give me this.

You're a rock star.

Are you a rock star? Are you?

Oh, no! Oh!

Oh, gross!

A dog just peed on me.

It's not funny!

Even amongst all the cars,

you know, like,

there was a couple

of kids' voices there,

and they were pretty good.
