THANK YOU FOR YOUR DILIGENCE, DR. CHANNING.

I'LL INFORM MRS. FISHER.

LADY HOXLEY, IT WASN'T MY INTENTION TO UPSET YOU.

THERE'S NO NEED TO EXPLAIN.

YOU'VE MADE YOUR FEELINGS PERFECTLY CLEAR.

NO, I DON'T THINK I HAVE.

ELLEN, I'D LIKE NOTHING MORE THAN TO STAY AND DANCE WITH YOU, AS WE DID THAT FIRST NIGHT.

♪ ELLEN: JOYCE.

IT'S JOHN.

HE'S HERE.

WHAT, HE'S HERE NOW?

CAN I SEE HIM?

HE'S UNDER DR. CHANNING'S CARE.

I DON'T SEE WHY NOT.

THANK YOU, LADY HOXLEY.

YOU'VE GOT SOME FRONT SHOWING YOUR FACE HERE.

JUST TRYING TO MAKE A LIVING.

THAT'S FUNNY, 'CAUSE I THOUGHT YOU LOT WOULD BE JUST BEG IN THE STREETS.

YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH DENNIS, YOU TAKE IT UP WITH HIM.

YEAH, WELL, THERE'S NOTHING I'D LIKE MORE, BUT UNFORTUNATELY HE'S RUN AWAY LIKE THE COWARD THAT HE IS.

SO I'LL JUST HAVE TO DEAL WITH YOU.

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

TO FIND THE HOLE THAT HE SLITHERED INTO.

AND I KNOW JUST THE PERSON TO LEAD ME TO HIM.

WELL, I DON'T KNOW WHERE HE IS.

AND EVEN IF I DID, I'D DIE BEFORE I TELL YOU.

WELL, IF THAT'S WHAT IT TAKES.

YOU DO WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO.

YOU KNOW WHERE TO FIND ME.

OUTSIDE NOW.

MUM!

MUM!

HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING?

NO.

THAT'S THE SECOND LIE YOU'VE TOLD ME TODAY.

I CAN SMELL IT ON YOU!

WHY CAN'T YOU JUST LEAVE ME ALONE?

DON'T YOU RAISE YOUR VOICE TO ME.

WHY SHOULDN'T I?

YOU'RE NOTHING BUT A STUPID OLD COW!

MARTIN.

MARTIN.

[VOMITING] IF I COULD, I'D SLING YOU OVER MY SHOULDER RIGHT NOW, CONNIE CARTER, AND CARRY YOU OFF HOME WITH ME.

WELL, I AIN'T STOPPING YOU.

I KNOW.

I'M STOPPING MYSELF.

I WANT OUR WEDDING NIGHT TO BE A COMBINATION OF BODY, OF MIND, OF SPIRIT, EVERYTHING YOU ARE AND EVERYTHING I AM ENTWINED TOGETHER IN OUR LOVE.

WE CAN WAIT A BIT LONGER FOR THAT, CAN'T WE?

YEAH.

HA HA HA!

♪ OH, DR. CHANNING, I'M HERE TO SEE MY HUSBAND.

JOHN FISHER.

HE'S JUST SETTLING IN.

I JUST WANT 5 MINUTES.

HE NEEDS TO BE ASSESSED BEFORE I CAN ALLOW ANY VISITORS.

I'M SORRY.

WELL, I'LL WAIT, THEN.

IT MAY TAKE SOME TIME.

PERHAPS YOU'D LIKE TO COME BACK TOMORROW.

NO.

I'M FINE HERE.
