Wake Wood
- Happy birthday, Alice.
- Hi, Dad.
We got a new patient at the back.
Your kind of dog, you know?
You can see him after school.
He's so cute. Aw!
Hey, little boy. Thanks, Dad.
- The right one.
Yes.
A locket. I love it.
Thanks, Mum. I love you.
I love you too.
Birthday girl.
Oh, you're so silly!
And straight to school. Happy birthday!
Hi, boy. How are you?
Did Dad fix you OK?
[Barks]
[Growls]
No!
[Shop door opens]
Excuse me. Um...
Is this hypoallergenic?
- Hello there.
- [Man] Afternoon, Arthur.
- Afternoon, boss.
- You here to keep your hand in?
I would normally. The knee,
you see, not getting any better.
That's why I got a younger man in.
[Mooing]
Steady hand, see.
Just steady her there, yeah?
Ah, there we are.
[Phone rings]
[Ringing tone]
Hello. I'm sorry, I was hoping
to get something for a headache.
Sure. Come in.
Headache, was it, Miss Brogan?
- Mary. Are you all right?
- Yes, yeah.
I... I didn't see anyone else come in.
- Are you two togeth...?
- My niece. Deirdre.
- Hi.
- She's visiting.
- Looks like you need a refill.
- Right.
Yeah, thank you.
When did you do the place up?
- Just recently.
- Must be nine months.
More, even, since they moved here.
Ventolin. I need to see a prescription.
I might have it here.
I do hold on to everything.
- How long are you visiting for?
- What a relief.
This expired last year.
Hey.
You all right?
- What are you doing?
- You know what I'm doing.
No!
It's like a black hole in here.
We're not just throwing
Alice's stuff away.
- No, we can't keep them.
- D'you not understand?
I'm not... I'm not ready.
You'd forget her if you could.
What can I do?
You can let me go.
It's not you, Patrick.
It's not because of you.
You know what?
All I want is for you to be OK.
Drive me to the station.
[Thunder]
[Clunking]
What is it?
[Engine fails]
[Engine fails to start]
We'll get some help at Arthur's place.
He'll know a mechanic.
[Distant clunking]
Listen. It's there when the wind dies.
- What is this place?
- I don't know.
Brilliant.
[Woman] These look like gravestones.
[Rings doorbell]
Car's there.
- I'll try and call him.
[Clunking]
[Woman] Let's go home.
[Patrick] What happened?
Louise.
- [Patrick] Talk to me, will you?
- Look, I just wanna go to bed.
Louise, Patrick.
Arthur, what are you doing here?
I just wanted to make sure that
everything's all right with you both.
- What do you mean?
- Well, is it?
[Patrick] Our car broke down
in the middle of nowhere.
We walked to your place,
couldn't raise you.
What is this, Arthur?
You just let yourself into our home?
[Arthur chuckles]
Country habits, I suppose.
You say you came to my place.
Well, that would make sense.
- What the hell is this?
- All right, I'm going.
[Groans]
You're doing a great job here, Patrick.
We're so glad you chose Wakewood
and hope you've found solace here.
[Patrick] Yeah, we're fine.
And how about you, Louise?
Is everything all right with you?
[Engine starts]
[Gasping breaths]
Deirdre?
- Are you...
- There you are, my pet.
- I'm going home today.
- Is she OK?
Fine, thanks.
- Now...
- [Deirdre] I can't wait to go back.
I know, lovely. It's gone so fast.
Um, uh...
There. For the sunglasses.
Come on, darlir.
[Clunking wood]
Alice has a lovely voice.
- Tell me my daughter's name.
- I don't know.
- Tell me. Tell me my daughter's name.
- I don't know, truly.
Her name was Alice.
Now, how did you niece know that?
What goes on in Wakewood
