Come on We should check your hand. We will buy food on the way home. Hello Maura I'm Dr. Williams. I used to take care of your mother. Was her mother like this when ... We are not talking about Margaret. He could not take care of Brianna and Bonnie. He had looked after the children for years. Putting aside his career, While Duncan is traveling around the world. Maybe he is able to do that was before, But the current condition not very good, is that right? This is not a diagnosis. But I think Maura is starting to show signs of bipolar disorder. Like his mother. But it takes a team to make a diagnosis properly. We will do that when he was taken to the hospital. I can stay here and help. Cancel my delivery for several weeks. Paula is here. Maura will not improve ... ... with a little help around the house. He is having a crisis, Ian. He could not take care of himself or children. How about the father? He is on his way. That bastard finally came for her children. Duncan will bring the kids to his parents' house in Scotland. Maura will never forgive you. He is their father. Close your eyes. You need to sleep well the long one. Mother!/ Mother, I want to give a farewell kiss. Children ... Come on. Your mother needs rest ... ... if he wants to improve. I do not care. Mother needs me to take care of her. Mother, I want to give you farewell kiss. No! Mother! No! We can stay. Mother, I want to stay. We love you, Mother. That's strange, why them Didn't register the number? It's okay, you can give it to me. I am their son-in-law. And my children there. Dear? Hello? This is your father. Why do you keep away are they from me? We just try to do what the best for children. The best for you. This is not the best for me. My children have disappeared. And my husband thinks of me is dead. Maura, calm down. Don't think I don't know what father do. You think I can't take care of them. You know what Duncan did? He did not register his telephone number. And his parents' phone number! I can't even do that talk to them! Maura Dr. Williams wants you to come to the hospital. So they can think a way to help you. I don't want to go We plan for tomorrow. I'll drop you off. Dr. Williams said there was a piano good there. you can practice. I don't want to play the piano. I'm done with that. I'm going to ask Paula to come and a bit of tidying up this place. I don't want Paula here. I don't want to play the piano. I just want my children back! Stop, okay? Stop. Will I end up like Mother? You have to take your medicine. Maura! I go now. Dinner in the fridge. Maura Maura What are you doing here? We need to talk, Maura. Where are the children? They are at my parents' house. They start school a few weeks ago. I registered them for school here. Yes I tried to contact to tell you. But I think your phone is broken. And I tried to call you, But your parents' phone number not listed. I just want tell you if ... They are happy, Maura. How can they be happy? without their mother, Duncan? You have to get better soon, Maura. I talked to your father. We both think you should go to the hospital to be treated properly. I'm trying, Duncan. I took the medicines. But it messes things up. You take too long leave me alone. Dear. Honey, it's fine. It will be alright. As if there is a wall who hit me. I want my children back. I want you, Duncan. I want my life back. Bonnie broke her hand on the island. Duncan, I'm begging you. I hired someone to look after it children when I go off duty. Her name is Sophie. He is very extraordinary. I'm their mother. Duncan, I know I do very bad thing. But this will be fine. I'm going to the hospital. I will improve. I will do anything. It will never come back as previously. I have to do what the best for children. Duncan! Duncan! Bring my children back to me! Duncan! Bring them back to me! Or I go to Scotland! Duncan! What's wrong with chaos downstairs? He told me this was over. Who? Duncan Honey, why don't you let it your father took you to the hospital? Then I'll make you a promise meet with my lawyer. He will fix this. Maura, you have the right to meet your children. I like your new appearance. This is a good improvement. I received a letter from my doctor the most handsome in the hospital, Said developmental ones very amazing. I know you can do it. All my letters are back without opening. I did not meet my children for six months. I know he tried divorce me. And I have to try over custody, But I have family support. It is true. The best interest for children always the court's attention. I'm in my best interest for my children. I'm their mother. And he tried get me out of their lives. Duncan applies discrimination towards me because of my illness. And that is a fact. Can you help me? Look, if there is anything else that needs to be done, I don't mind. You can stay here. It's okay, father. I want Duncan to see if I've improved. I don't need someone to look after me. Let me take care of it. Mother! We go home! Mother! Look, our dolls! Mother! Mother! Mother, here we come! Mother? Mother, where are you? Mother? Children, we must leave immediately. Father. Can we be here a little longer? I beg of you, father. Mother will come. No! Promise Father will pick us up if he returns. Of course, dear. I will see you soon. Bonnie? Brianna? Too late. What do you mean, late? It's 13:30, Maura. Visit time ends half an hour ago. What happened? I went to pick flowers. And I fell down. And I managed to disappoint our daughters once more. Sorry. I fell. I guess I'm really hurt. I want a divorce. I married Sophie. Do you understand? That is not surprising. You are not really there for me again. That's so unfair. Is it true? You leave me alone with two children, While you're out expand your scope. You know how important it is the assignment was for my career. How about my career? Remember that? My career died in this house. That's exactly always you want. What do you mean? You're so jealous of attention. Concerts and awards. Come on It's always your career rather than mine. Jeez. Whatever. Whatever you say, Maura. That's your letter of divorce. But if you think I won't fight for custody of children, You are wrong. How much more do you want make them suffer, Maura? Out of my house. From what I see ... Children are still quite young to forget. Hi. I love your cats. Can I pet it? I have two daughters your age. May we play together with them? They are not at home now. Maybe we can go eat cake. May we play with their toys? Yes! Yes, you want to do that? Okay. Okay. Okay. Come on I live in the house over there. Children! Children! Come back here Come back quickly now! Enter the house! I live just down the road. We just want ... I've heard all about you. Stay away from my children. If you see them male, I make sure you go to prison! Dear Duncan. I have decided for the sake of the kindness of my children ... to let them be growing up without me I no longer have strength to fight you You are determined to distance yourself my children are from me And I can't live without them Maybe one day they will forgive me Bad news, everyone. Looks like there's a problem by ferry again. It's cooler than it looks. Hey! Ma'am! Why don't you go back to the bar? It's warm. Before the big waves take you drifting into the sea. Okay. You are okay. You are ok You are okay. No problem. Please. By the way, what's your name? Mrs. Trap? Maura MacKenzie. M-A-C. Nice to meet you. My name is Ben Cale. B-E-N. We might get stuck here for ... Gosh, one week or more. The weather is more reliable than that ferry service lately. What happened to your shoulder? You don't mind, right? Just curious. OK... My mother married an American sailor. One night I cried and make the man emotional. So he lifted me ... ... then threw me out window to the parking lot. Gosh ... Sorry. Somehow I laugh. Yes. Of course it's quite funny ... ... when you imagine a child cheerful little one floating in the air. So, Mrs. Mac. What do you think... ... if inaugurated this introduction with ... You know, a dance. No. No? Come on, let's be interesting. Ten-second dance. 10 seconds. 10 seconds. Please pay attention. We regret to say ship Tonight's crossing is canceled.

For trapper women the prettiest I've seen. That doesn't say much. I don't know about that. Trap installers are the sexiest group of people. This is ridiculous. Why?

That's the hard thing about your children. That will make anyone crazy. He's right. They could have died that day. I can no longer believe myself. And now, same as me, They will grow big without their mother. You will meet them again. Because of you. What are you talking about? My mother jumped from the ferry in the strait around here.
