"Wow." "Thank you." "This is bliss." "Mm." "Take this." "Looks posh." "Phew." "It's the poshest of the posh." "It's really difficult." "You know, I wanted, um..." "You think it was gonna be like this, but..." "Boy:" "Granddad!" "Granddad, help!" "The rip cord!" "Pull the ripcord!" "Grandfather:" "Get the boy out!" "Joe:" "Jump out." "Grandfather:" "Get him out!" "Just get him out!" "Climb out!" "Granddad!" "Grab the rope!" "Pull the ripcord!" "All the way down." "The ripcord!" "The red one!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "No!" "Granddad!" "Oi!" "Pull it." "The ripcord." "Whew." "What's your name?" "Harry." "You wanna get out?" "Grandfather:" "Let's get you out of here." "His name was John Logan." "He was a GP from Oxford." "Had a wife and a small child." "Fuck." "Maybe he thought it was his duty." "He's not obliged to kill himself." "Not exactly in the Hippocratic oath, is it?" "Exactly, he was just a good bloke." "Well, I couldn't have done it." "You would have done the same." "I couldn't." "I'm a born coward." "He just hung there for a few seconds." "Like he was gonna flap his arms and fly away like a cartoon." "Bugs bunny." "Tom and Jerry." "Tweety pie." "Tweety pie." "But he didn't, did he?" "Joe:" "I mean, what do you do?" "It's like..." "Suddenly, I was the leader." "Everyone all right?" "These people need my help." "You know, shit like that." "Oh, no, you were." "You were like, um, a..." "A mummy." "Claire:" "Zombie." "Yeah, you were." "Joe:" "I mean, there was a body to be found, work to be done." "There might be something that we can do." "And he might not be dead." "Do you think he's dead?" "Joe:" "But, in a funny way I knew what he meant, because I kept on expecting him..." "T-to get up, walk away." "I don't know..." "Maybe he was in shock." "I was in shock." "I'm in shock now." "There's not a lot we can do now." "We can pray." "I find it helps." "Times like this." "Well..." "It's really not my thing." "I think you really need to." "I'm sorry." "No." "You, please." "I... if you need to, then go ahead." "Why won't you?" "Well, don't you think he prayed?" "Please." "Please?" "Rachel:" "What happened to the boy?" "Joe:" "He pulled himself together brought the balloon down in a field five Miles away." "Rachel:" "Oh, no." "Robin:" "Oh, God." "So the doctor died for nothing." "Robin:" "That's terrible." "It doesn't make any sense, does it?" "You tried." "You did the best you could." "You're so brave." "Isn't he brave?" "I would have been a gibbering wreck." "Oh." "I am a gibbering wreck." "Yeah, well, I'd..." "I'd have started shrieking." "Running around wringing my hands and twisting my ankle." "Robin:" "All the same." "So there you go." "But I let go of the rope." "I let go." "But if you hadn't..." "yeah, but I let go." "If you hadn't, I'd be sitting here without you." "Yeah, but if I hadn't have let go..." "None of us had let go..." "We could have brought that balloon down." "Oh, I'm sorry." "She's teething." "Listen, you flew through the air." "You were actually airborne." "It was an airborne rescue attempt." "You know, you wrestled with the gods, and you lived." "Compared to most people, you're a fucking action hero." "It was the wind." "It was the wind." "Would you stop saying that?" "It wasn't the fucking wind." "Hey." "Come on." "Hey." "Joe:" "When we say we're in love..." "What does it mean?" "Could it be..." "That this..." "Complex..." "Dazzling, transformative feeling is just..." "An illusion?" "Could it be just a trick?" "A trick played on us by nature just to make us fuck." "We imagine that love is meaningful." "But could it in fact be..." "Meaningless?" "Spud..." "How's your love life?" "Girl:" "Mommy!" "Mommy!" "Hello." "Jed:" "Hello, mate." "It... it's Jed." "You know, uh, from the balloon." "Hi." "Um..." "How did you get this number?" "Oh, I got, uh..." "The police gave it to me." "So, um..." "What's the problem?" "I was wondering whether you'd like to meet up." "You know..." "Actually, you know, I'm..." "I'm really, really busy at the moment." "In fact, I'm right in the middle of something now." "So..." "I really wouldn't mind talking about this, you know." "Talking about what?" "Oh, you know, things." "What are you doing now?" "Um, well, I... look I..." "I know you're busy." "I know this is a bit forward of me..." "Look..." "look, I'll..." "I'll make you a promise." "Just to see me this once, yeah?" "And I'll never bother you again." "Now, that's a solemn promise." "Do you know what I mean?" "I just..." "Really think we should..." "Talk about what happened." "I mean, what was all that about, eh?" "Fuck." "It's like..." "You know, fuck." "Where are you?" "I..." "I can..." "I can come to you." "No, no, no just..." "just, um... just... just tell me where you are." "I'm, uh..." "I'm in the park across the street." "How you doin'?" "Hey." "Good to see you, Jess." "How you doing?" "Jed." "Sorry?" "Jed." "Jed parry." "Sorry." "Jed." "Jed." "How are you?" "Hi." "Hi." "So, uh..." "Well, there's a Caf up the road I've..." "I've eaten." "Cook a blinding' fry-up." "No, I've already had breakfast." "I'm fine, thank you." "Well, I..." "I'd rather go inside." "You know what I mean?" "It's, uh, quite important." "Can't you tell me here?" "You... you know what I'm talking about." "Do you want me to spell it out?" "Yeah, I Th..." "I think I would, actually." "I'm..." "I'm a bit in the... come on, Joe, be a sport." "Look I've got a lot of work." "Nonsense." "No, I have." "I'm very busy." "I've got..." "I'm right in the middle of something." "I don't know what this is about." "Don't pretend you don't know what I'm talking about." "Well, I don't." "Why can't you just say it?" "Say it." "Open up to me." "Look, uh..." "Thanks, but, um..." "I-I've got to go and do something else." "Right." "Well, bye." "Bye, then." "Okay." "See you." "Bye." "Bye." "Joe:" "He's just sort of weirdly familiar." "Like he knows me, or we're old friends or something." "Well, maybe he's lonely." "Yeah." "That's what I thought, just lonely." "He's very friendly." "Well, he sounds nice." "Claire:" "Joe?" "Spud:" "So we're saying art is just an evolutionary tool." "Perhaps all sorts of complex human behavior serves the same purpose." "Perhaps moral behavior is another one." "Fairness, kindness, self sacrifice." "So... there isn't... it has nothing to do..." "With character or..." "Or personality or your simple..." "Goodness." "Maybe that's an illusion too." "Wow." "That's excellent." "Frank:" "She's kind and, uh, bright, and she has a good sense of humor and..." "The trouble is, she only speaks Polish." "Where did you meet her?" "She's the Au pair." "Classy." "It's very classy." "But she is so much more than that." "Um..." "You're my sister." "You're supposed to say something nice." "Joe:" "Fucking hell." "When we get married..." "Uh-huh." "If we get married..." "Yeah." "I'm gonna have so many children that if you left me, the child support would cripple you." "I mean, what if you run off with the Au pair anyway?" "We haven't got an Au pair." "I mean, if we get one." "Depends on what she looks like." "You might be tempted." "I can't imagine that happening." "I mean, how can you be sure?" "No, I mean, I can't imagine being tempted." "Ohhhh." "I don't want to leave it too late, you know." "Ah!" "Ah!" "Claire:" "Procreation and all that stuff." "Joe:" "Well, you know, we'll cross that bridge when we come to it." "Claire:" "I think we have come to it." "Joe:" "What, now?" "Claire:" "Mm." "Jed:" "Psst!" "I thought you said we weren't gonna see each other again." "Haven't you got something to say to me?" "You got to stop following me like this." "This is getting a bit weird." "Well, why don't you write it in your lovely book?" "Go on, no one can see." "Yeah, well, okay." "How's that?" "Why can't you write it down?" "What?" "I think you know." "Jess, I don't know what this is all about, but it's..." "Jed." "Jed." "It's just Jed." "What?" "Jed." "You signed it to Jess." "It's Jed." "Sorry." "How's that?" "Okay?" "It's... were you christened Joe or Joseph?" "What?" "It's nothing to be ashamed of." "Joey, Joe-Joe." "Don't you think it's time you faced up to who you really are?" "Who I am." "I don't..." "I'm sorry." "The fruit of the spirit is love." "What?" "Love." "Galatians, chapter five." "Oh, Jesus, now what do you want?" "Joe." "Joe, it's like..." "Joe, what...?" "What have I done to you?" "You haven't done anything." "Why keep this up?" "I can't control my emotions as well as you." "I know this give you power over me." "But there's nothing I can do about it." "Please." "I don't know where you're going with this." "There's nothing I can do about it." "But please don't put on this act." "What act?" "If this is a joke, it's got to stop." "It's hurting us both, Joe." "It's doing us harm." "It's fucking us up." "Look, I really don't know who you are, and I don't know where you live, and I don't know what you want, really." "And, quite frankly, I don't care." "So could you please just leave me alone?" "God." "You say that." "Then you make that face." "What face?" "What is it you really want me to do?" "I don't want you to do anything." "You're not even trying to be convincing, Joe." "It's obvious." "This is just... okay, okay." "Um, if there's something I've done that's upset you, or I've said something that given you... given you an idea." "I don't know what it is." "I don't know what..." "what it is." "But whatever it is, I'm sorry." "I'm really, truly sorry." "Now, I just don't know what you're on about." "I don't know what this is about." "Joe." "J-j-j-Joey." "Joey." "Joseph!" "Sorry." "Don't do this." "Please, don't do this." "Don't let me down." "What do you mean?" "Like you let down that other bloke." "What?" "Be brave." "What do you mean, "be brave"?" "What do you mean?" "Brave, brave." "You know what I'm saying." "I didn't let him down." "What are you saying?" "It was all of us." "Well, wasn't it?" "Robin: "I see my work as part of a tradition that goes back to the great sculptors of the renaissance."" "I didn't say that." "It says here." "Not like that, anyway." "I can't see you." "Sorry." "Thank you." "I love your voice." "Huh." "Oh." "I wish I could sculpt your voice." "My dear, is there...?" "Is there anything I can do?" "Uh, no, because the more you talk, the more frustrated I get." "What...?" "I won't say another word." "Thank you." "I think I'm done for today." "Joe:" "Anybody home?" "Hi." "Hiya." "Joe:" "Posing again?" "Yeah." "He's a grandfather." "Grandfather?" "Yeah." "Ridiculous but true." "It's the other lot." "You know, Mary." "He's a gene machine." "Bye-bye thank you." "Don't know how you do it." "It's easy." "I'll teach you." "You know, you're gonna get a reputation." "At my age, I deserve a reputation." "Congratulations." "That's very good news." "Thank you." "Now fuck off." "You're way too happy." "Claire:" "Give love to Rachel, yeah?" "Robin:" "Yeah." "Bye." "Bye." "Robin:" "Bye." "So, what do you think?" "It's good." "What's wrong with it?" "No, it's good." "It's really good." "What?" "We... we did talk about this, you know." "What?" "Well..." "Why couldn't you do that for me?" "I cast your hands." "You cast every fucker's hands." "I mean, any idiot can get his hands done." "Well, hands aren't so personal." "What's wrong with the rest of me?" "I'm only interested in your hands." "Thanks a lot." "I like your hands." "Anyway, they're nice and bony." "Bony, you want?" "You should do my feet." "My feet are really bony." "I don't do feet." "Anyway, it's not the same." "Why can't you do my face, eh?" "Why?" "I don't know." "I can't explain." "It's... well, try." "Um..." "I don't know, it's just..." "It's hard to articulate." "I'm just..." "Too close to you, I suppose." "How can you be too close to me?" "That's..." "But what does...?" "What does "too close" mean?" "I need to be objective." "I need objectivity." "What does that mean?" "I need distance." "I'd have to examine you..." "Objectivity." "And I don't want to examine you." "I want you to be my lover, not my subject." "Okay?" "Now, what's wrong?" "I saw that guy again today." "Hmm?" "I think..." "I think he's some kind of fan." "It's just..." "That's a bit weird." "Yeah." "No, he's quite intense." "Well, just ignore him, okay?" "Yeah, I'm sure... you know." "I'm sure he's harmless." "I'm sure he's harmless." "It's just..." "Hey, I feel a bit sorry for him, really." "He's..." "A bit lonely, I think." "Don't let it bother you." "No." "No, of course not." "You can't help feeling responsible." "You were just in the wrong place at the wrong time." "Yeah, but I can't help thinking that we might have saved him." "I don't think so." "Well, he thinks so." "But how?" "He said so." "In a helicopter?" "Look, come on." "There's no way you should feel responsible." "I just wish I'd been able to do something." "I wish we'd saved him." "I really wish we had, because, you know, it would just be so much easier now." "Why?" "What, so you wouldn't feel so bad?" "No, because he fucking died." "I just... come here." "Look at me." "You are such a good person, okay?" "You're just a little bit overwrought." "Stressed out and sad and tired." "There's nothing wrong with that." "Mm-hm." "I love you." "Come here." "It's gonna be okay." "I love you." "Come here." "Joe:" "I-I'm saying all these things have meaning but they only have meaning because we, as human beings, give them meaning." "That's your theory." "Life is a meaningless, Darwinian expedient." "It's just biology, but humans struggle to give it meaning." "Yeah, that's what makes us human." "Well, that's a good theory." "Man:" "Simple but effective." "Joe:" "Good." "It's evolutionary." "I should be on the fucking South bank show." "Well, okay, why don't we talk about that?" "Talk about what?" "Getting you on TV." "Well, we should." "Kinda think it's important." "I should, you know..." "Pull myself together." "Just do something constructive instead of sitting on my fucking ass." "I need to do things." "I never do anything." "You do loads of things." "What are you...?" "What are you talking about?" "I... all I do is pontificate about... you know I have never, ever made anything that you can hold in your hand." "I've never..." "I've never helped anybody." "I just have..." "Theories." "But they're good theories." "Perhaps you should do more with them." "I don't know, maybe we could..." "It's... it's silly!" "Why are you saying all this?" "For fuck's sake." "What?" "What?" "Jed:" "We must stop meeting like this." "Don't you ever go home?" "S-sorry." "No, no." "Go ahead." "It's all right, Joe." "I'm preparing myself to forgive you." "This is insane." "What do you want?" "You know what I want." "Look." "Not now, for fuck's sake." "I am having my lunch." "This is just fucking stupid." "Not giving up, you know." "Yeah." "I know." "Yes." "I'm really sorry about this." "This is one of my many fans." "Very quick, very quick." "You're a smooth one, aren't you?" "Look." "Go away, please." "Come on, Joe." "Joe-Joe." "Look, stop calling me that, please." "Just listen." "No, no, I am not listening." "Look, please just piss off." "This is driving me fucking mad." "We can't go on like this, Joe." "Just give into it." "You can't live your life in denial." "I-I'm not in denial." "Jed:" "Yes, you are." "No, I'm not." "You are." "I..." "look, I'm not in denial." "Now, I don't even know you, you mad bastard." "Yes, you do." "No, I don't." "You do." "I don't!" "I think you do." "Better than you think." "Joe!" "Joe, cool it." "Cool it." "Cool it, man." "Good idea." "Sorry." "Man 1:" "I know." "Man 2:" "Did you see it?" "No, I missed it." "I'm sorry." "I just... really pisses me off." "What's he done?" "Doesn't matter." "Well, um, perhaps it does." "Please." "How's Claire?" "Nice piece in the guardian." "She must be thrilled about the report." "You both must be thrilled about it." "It's great." "Very good." "Claire:" "Why is he following you, anyway?" "I don't..." "I mean, what have you done?" "I..." "I haven't done anything." "Well, you must've done something, or he wouldn't be following you." "Well, he just..." "you know, he... what do you do?" "He just turned up." "Careful, okay?" "Yeah." "He turned up and..." "and..." "And I recognized him and I just..." "I smiled at him." "Why?" "Well, why not?" "Well, if you don't even know him, why are you gonna smile at him?" "Well, I felt sorry for him, that's all." "Don't encourage him, okay?" "That's ready to be dipped." "I told her." "Thank you." "I'm just being friendly to the guy." "You know, we've both been through this, like, really, like, awful, awful experience." "It's been really, you know..." "Joey." "Joey, I'm at work, okay?" "I can't deal with this right now." "I'm trying to explain." "We'll talk about this later." "I'm trying to explain to you that..." "what?" "It's just really difficult." "It's... because nobody understands." "I do understand." "Do you?" "Do you really understand me?" "Yes." "Do you want me to talk to him?" "Of course I don't." "I want to." "I don't want you to." "I want to find out his problem." "There's no fucking problem." "It's fine." "Maybe he's suffering from post-traumatic stress or something." "Yeah, he probably is." "Yeah." "You know, maybe you both are." "You know?" "I-I think you need to see somebody and talk about all this." "I'm talking to you about it." "I want... no, I mean somebody professional." "Professional?" "Why won't you let me speak to him?" "Because I don't want you to." "He was always traipsing off somewhere." "Having adventures." "To, um..." "Orphanages in Yugoslavia and Inoculation Safaris in Uganda." "Very Gung ho." "When you think about it, he was bound to die rescuing somebody." "It was instinctive." "Or reckless." "You know, I think he was unlucky." "Unlucky." "Yes, I do." "I think that, um..." "If we'd all..." "Been able to keep hanging on, um, I..." "Somebody let go, and then we all had to let go." "If they hadn't, I think we might have saved him." "I need to find out who let go first." "I wish you hadn't told me that." "I'm sorry." "Uh, there was what..." "Someone with my husband on the day he died." "Did you notice?" "There was someone with him in the car when he stopped and there was someone who got out with him and then that someone vanished." "The car..." "Was on the far side of the field." "I only really noticed your husband when we were running towards the balloon." "We were..." "did you see the car?" "Well, yes, but I was... can you remember?" "Was there one car door open or two?" "Well, I..." "It's just... was there one or two?" "I..." "I think..." "No." "I can't remember." "I'm sorry." "Tell me what it is." "Go on." "It won't bite." "It was on the floor, by the passenger's seat." "Yeah." "Were gonna have a picnic." "Smell it." "It's rose water." "I've never used rose water in my life." "If you saw something, please don't feel you have to protect me." "If you saw her, I need to know." "No, I really..." "I did not see your husband with anybody." "I need to know how long it was going on." "How much it meant to him." "But how do you know it was going on?" "This doesn't mean anything." "You didn't know my husband." "This could just be..." "well, has he..." "Ever...?" "No, no, no, no." "I don't mean that." "I mean if you knew him, you'd know he doesn't take risks." "He was afraid of heights." "He wouldn't have taken a risk unless..." "Well..." "Unless he was showing off." "He was quite a show-off." "When we were young." "You know, when I was young." "When I was worth showing off to." "He was showing off to a girl." "Well, maybe, um..." "She might try and get in touch..." "If she comes near this house," "I'm gonna kill her." "God help me, but I will." "I'll kill her." "Have I let you down?" "Sorry?" "What do you mean?" "Do you think I've let you down?" "What do you mean?" "All your favorites." "Joe:" "Yeah." "Thank you." "There you go." "You look lovely." "So do you." "Thank you." "It's hot." "Be careful." "Nearly forgot." "Happy Birthday." "Thank you very much." "It's beautiful." "Thank you." "Thank you, Claire." "Cheers." "Cheers to you." "Thank you." "I love you." "I love you too." "Mmm." "That's good." "Right, then." "So we've got, uh, chili sauce and soy sauce." "Great." "Okay." "Oh." "Ohhh." "Hot, eh?" "Yeah, they are hot." "Mm." "Fuck's sake." "I've had enough." "Stay there!" "I need to talk to you!" "I need..." "I need to talk..." "stay there!" "Just... oop." "Just get over here." "Man:" "How are you?" "Woman:" "I'm all right." "Got melons." "Jed:" "Excuse me." "Sorry." "So that's coke, and..." "Oh, and a milky way." "That's 10.50" "so..." "Don't you think we should..." "Talk?" "I'm here, aren't I?" "What's there to talk about?" "Well, perhaps we should talk about what happened in Oxford." "Oh, terrible business." "The man who died, did you see him arrive?" "You mean arrive at the end of the rope or arrive in the field?" "If you mean arrive in the field, do you mean the first time or the second time, if you know what I mean?" "Well, you tell me." "I remember we prayed." "We knelt and prayed together, remember?" "Yeah." "Well, it was..." "I was humoring you." "You touched me on the shoulder, and you looked at me, and the way you looked at me, I could tell you knew what had passed between us." "What passed between us?" "Love." "God's love." "For fuck's sake." "You're mad." "That what they said about Jesus once." "They also said it about a lot of mad people." "You see, I think it was a sign." "What was?" "The balloon, the man, everything." "Well, what was it a sign of?" "What did it mean?" "Well, as if God's hand had reached down, and... and grabbed that balloon and..." "and plucked it from the earth, to bring that man to God and to bring us together." "You see, God understands." "He really does." "He really does understand." "What...?" "What were you doing there?" "Just meant to be, I suppose." "Destiny." "In...?" "In that field?" "Outside Oxford?" "What were you doing?" "Were you following him?" "Huh?" "John Logan." "Were you following him?" "No!" "I've never followed anyone in my life." "You know, I think you have." "I..." "I was looking for my dog." "I lost my dog." "He's very fond of the countryside." "He likes the trees." "Yeah, well, I..." "I've never seen you with any dog." "That's 'cause I lost him." "You know what I think?" "I think you're a bit lost." "I think everyone's a bit lost, aren't they?" "I think you think that there's this sort of..." "Special bond between us because of what we went through." "You think it somehow means something." "Well, everything means something to someone." "Otherwise there wouldn't be much point, would there?" "Everything happens for a reason." "That... that thing with the curtains you keep doing." "It's ingenious." "Fucking mad, but ingenious." "What?" "The way you hold them so..." "Delicately, so..." "Gentle." "Gentle, yet firm." "You know, with a firm grip." "No... no messing around." "K'ck-k'ck." "Simple, but effective." "And just generally, you know..." "Very, very..." "Lovely." "You want a crisp?" "This is fucking stupid!" "Hold on, Joe." "Just hold on to it." "We can't let go again." "Not this time." "Just hold on." "Hold on." "Look, if this is about Claire, we can work it out." "Where there's a will, there's a way." "Here." "Why did you throw it away?" "I didn't." "Then who did, Joe?" "Where did you get this?" "I..." "I found it in the bin outside your house." "Joey." "Joe-Joe." "Hm?" "Come on." "Everything's gonna be all right." "Forget about Claire." "I'm here now." "Frank:" "Which he does." "It's an excellent plan." "Robin:" "Yeah, you speak Polish..." "Robin:" "When you were with that other loser." "Rachel:" "Oh, he was lovely." "Robin:" "He was not lovely." "Not what you'd call lovely." "Not in any..." "you were just entranced." "Frank:" "I've seen Natasha stop traffic." "I mean, actually stop traffic, just by walking across the road." "She doesn't even know she's doing it." "Bikes ride into the back of buses." "And buses miss their stops." "Dog walkers plow unsuspecting dogs under cars." "They can't help themselves." "Can't stop staring at her." "Claire:" "Why?" "What's wrong with her?" "I'm saying you have um..." "Uh, magnetism." "Stop it." "Like... you understand?" "Like... like..." "like a magnet." "Do you know what a magnet is?" "A refrigerator..." "Magnet." "It's physics, dear." "Don't take any notice." "Joe:" "No it's not." "It's biology." "Joe:" "When we're in love..." "Or when we think we're in love, we do the things we do to ensure good breeding." "To ensure..." "A fuck." "We're just stupid organisms." "It's meaningless." "Don't even know why we fucking bother." "Robin:" "I think what Joe is trying to say is um, that to have an understanding of the science of love, doesn't make it any less remarkable." "Claire:" "Yes, but most people don't need to understand the science of it, do they?" "Natasha:" "I have no idea whatsoever what anybody's talking about." "Claire:" "Why don't you go upstairs, fetch your book, and we'll have a fucking recital, shall we?" "Frank:" "Love is like being under a spell." "An extraordinary magic spell, and then..." "One day the spell is broken and the love..." "Love just..." "Flies away like a bird." "Natasha:" "A bird?" "What bird is this?" "It was meant to be so special." "I had it all planned." "I brought champagne." "I brought a ring." "I was gonna propose to you." "Well, that's let the cat out of the bag." "Have you changed your mind?" "Frank:" "Well..." "If you ever want to see two people turn into two-headed fire-breathing monsters overnight, just put rings on their fingers." "Rachel:" "Frank..." "No." "He's right." "He's right." "'Cause you are an expert, aren't you, bro?" "When you're not busy sexing up the Au pair to within an inch of her life, you're a fucking authority, aren't you, pal?"

"We'd set out for a picnic, and my car broke down." "Your husband stopped and offered us a lift, then we saw the balloon and, um, your husband stopped again, ran to help." "I didn't know what to do, 'cause there were all these... all these people, all trying to help." "And suddenly it all went horribly wrong." "We got out of the car, and we wanted to... we just ran away." "We..." "We just ran away." "Penny is one of my students." "Professor:" "We kept it secret until now." "We had to."

"Were you frightened when the balloon went up into the sky?" "Yes." "Yes, I was pretty frightened." "Then why did you let go?" "Well, we all let go." "We had to." "You see, all the men holding onto the balloon let go." "Um..." "Apart from your dad." "But that's because your dad was such a brave man." "He was pretty brave." "For a long time, I was worried that I was the one who'd let go first." "But, in fact, we all pretty much let go at the same time." "The important thing is that your dad didn't let go." "He hung on." "He kept on hanging on even when the balloon went right up into the sky." "Right up to the top of..." "Bloody hell." "Bloody well right." "Algy!" "Algy!" "Algy!" "Daughter:" "Algy!" "How did it go?" "Okay." "It went okay." "How's the flat?" "Small." "Dark." "Cold." "Damp." "Lonely." "Good." "I'm glad." "I'm still..." "I still..." "Don't, Joe." "I made it so complicated..." "And it doesn't need to be complicated." "It's not complicated." "It's really..." "I don't know what to say." "Don't say anything." "Don't say anything."
