but you wouldn't listen.

The woman took my kid.

That's kidnapping. Am I right?

My wife could've been killed.

If you won't do anything...

Take it easy.

You don't have to shout.

OK.

What are you gonna do?

We'll tell New York to pick her up

and bring her in for questioning.

OK.

OK. I'm gonna go

to the hospital tomorrow

to pick my wife up.

Hopefully, I'll be home

for the weekend

if you need to talk to me.

Thank you, Lieutenant.

You're welcome.

How's that feel? You warm? Good.

Are you all cosy?

Is Mommy gonna be all right?

Mommy's gonna be fine, honey.

She's gonna be fine.

Are you going to stay with us?

I'm gonna stay with you.

Now, go to sleep, OK?

Goodnight, doll.

Forever?

I promise, honey.

You mean the detectives in Manhattan

have no idea where she's gone?

They don't know where she is?

Yeah.

No, I see.

If you get any more information,

you'll let me know, Lieutenant?

Thank you very much.

- Here you go.

- Thanks.

How does the arm feel?

It hurts.

Can I get you some more painkillers?

OK.

Welcome back.

Our contestants have to decide...

Thank you.

Holler if you need anything else.

I'd love a cup of tea.

You got it.

What are you doing here?

Why are you here?

He tried... to say goodbye to me

last night.

But he couldn't,

because he and I feel the same way

about each other.

Do you know how it is when you meet

somebody for the first time...

...and you get

this instant attraction?

I understand what you're doing.

You're trying to move him

into the country.

And you're keeping him away from me.

And you're playing happy family.

But you... wouldn't understand that,

because you're so selfish.

He told me about you.

He told me about you.

He was very honest.

If you weren't so stupid,

you'd know that.

But you're a stupid, selfish b*tch!

You're a stupid, selfish b*tch!

Dan!

Dan!
