Hilary and Jackie Page #3

by Kiffer's father.

All right, go on.

Do another one.

Ok, um...

don't tap it.

Just think it.

Ok.

All right.

You really got me

by the kinks.

Absolutely.

You're just

saying that.

No, it's true.

We always know what

the other one is thinking.

You know what

I'm thinking now,

don't you, sis?

Not really.

Yes, you do.

No, I don't.

I'll tell you.

No.

I mean, just tell me.

I want

to sleep with Kiffer.

You don't mind,

do you, sis?

We always did say

that we'd share

everything, remember?

What?

What is it?

Nothing. I think

we should all go to bed.

I don't want

to go to bed.

I could stay up

all night.

Well, you have

to be very careful,

'cause it's very easy to

stand on one, isn't it?

Why don't you look

around there?

I think you might be

standing on one.

I'm just going over

to the Williams' place

for cheese, luv.

I'll come with you.

I thought you had jet lag.

The walk will help.

Why don't you two

go together,

and I can get on

with the gutters?

Fine.

Actually I'd just

as soon stay here.

Me, too.

It's settled, then.

Kiffer goes off

for the cheese

and we stay here.

I'll get the f***ing

cheese, all right?

I think you should

go with her.

Why?

'Cause she doesn't

know the way.

Jackie!

Jackie!

Jackie!

Jackie!

Jackie!

Jackie!

Jackie!

Jackie.

Get away from me!

You don't love me!

Don't f***ing love me!

All I want is a f***.

Jackie.

Aah!

Come on.

All I want is a f***ing f***,

for f***'s sake!

It's ok.

Ohh!

It's all right.

No.

We have to.

No, we don't have to.

Why would anyone have to?

Because she's my sister.

Yes, well,

I think you'll find

that this is not

the sort of thing

that sisters normally

ask one another.

Because I'm scared.

Yes, well,

she doesn't scare me.

I'm sure it would

just be the once.

Just the once, huh?

I wouldn't have asked.

Any particular position?

She just needs proof.

Proof of what,

for god's sake?

Proof that

somebody loves her.

She just went.

Didn't say a word.

Didn't...

cancel

her engagements.

How does she

seem to you?

Well, she has been acting

a little oddly.

It's beautiful.

I can see why

you wanted to come here

instead of Los Angeles.

Don't worry about

the cancellations, by the way.

I've seen to them.

Everyone was

very understanding.

No one wants to put

pressure on you,

so don't worry.

So...

Which is the daddy?

Which one?

There's a slate mine

on the other side

of the mountain.

Kiffer,

look what Theresa's found.

Will you excuse me

a moment?

Is that the one

with that one?

I was thinking...

if Kiffer and Hilary

can do it, so can we.

We can buy a house

near here if you like.

It would cost

next to nothing.

We could have all we needed.

We could have a little studio,

rehearsal rooms,

phones.

We could have a helipad.

What do you say?

I try to give her

everything she wants.

I don't know

what she wants.

Do you know

what she wants?

Not really.

Look after her,

won't you, Kiffer?

That's better.

It's just us again.

You know you

can't have toast.

I don't know why

you keep asking.

Daddy, I want toast.

Toast?

Toast? I want

toast, too.

Could we

have toast?

I haven't had a chance

to light the fire yet.

Well, we'll light

the fire, won't we?

Let's light the fire.

Yes.

There.

Take some of these

and put them

on the fire.

I feel a million dollars

this morning.

That was exactly what

the doctor ordered.

Oh, thank you, Hils.

You don't mind, do you?

No, of course not.

Well, here we all are.

Wouldn't it be wonderful

if we could stay

like this forever?

Get this one.

You get that one.

Come on. Throw some more

logs on the fire.

Come on! Throw it!

Come on,

throw it, throw it,

throw it, throw it!

Come on!

Come on!

Come on!

Come on, let's go.

Here, Kif.

Come on.

Come on, sweetie.

Kif, what are you doing?

I'm kissing you.

It's me... Hils.

I know.

You're my wife.

What about Jack?

What about her?

Ok.

What if she wakes up?

Look, I don't care.

Oh, that's good.

Oh, shh, shh. Shh.

Kiffer, shh.

Kiffer.

Kiffer.

Oh, god.

Kiffer. Shh.

Stop. Get off me.

Get off me.

Get off me!

She'll never

talk to me again now.

You've got to start

saying no to her.

The more you give her,

the more she wants.

You've got to start

saying no to her.

I've given you

everything.

Ever since we were little,

everything you've asked for

I've said yes.

Jackie, listen.

Jackie...

Jackie...

I'm sorry.

Cimbarozo Cotopaxi

took me by the hand...

over the Orinoco...

across the blazing

Kalahari desert...

through the untamed

grasslands of the valley.

We're in heaven.

Oh, put that

bloody light out.

jacki

Psst.

Psst.

Come. We must go.

You have a plane.

What?

Your plane to Germany

for your concert tonight.

What about my sister?

She will be taken

to her England plane.

It's all arranged.

You must hurry.

Very good.

Romantic.

We understand this.

Really?

I'm afraid I don't know

a bloody word, frankly.

Please?

Danke.

Bitte.

Ich bin ein Hamburger.

Yeah.

Wunderbar!

Oh, um, I'm sorry,

I'm sorry. Wrong number.

Entschuldigen.

Hello, mummy.

Is Hilary there? Can...

oh, sorry. Uh, sorry.

S-sorry, no, wrong number.

Sorry.

Fantastico,

fantastico, querida.

Casals was in

the audience tonight.

He was most impressed.

We would be honoured

if you'd join us for supper.

Oh, I'd love to.

Only the problem is,

is that I stink.

Excuse me?

Um, well, the sweat

just runs off me

when I'm playing.

What about Pablo?

Does he have

the same problem? Look.

Excuse me, um...

my clothes are dirty,

and I'd like to wash them.

Uh... wash, yes?

Um, dirty.

Washing?

S^. Lavadero.

Well, there's no plug,

and it's too small.

No. Lavadero.

Lvelo all.

Lo siento mucho, seora.

Look, look, is there

a washing machine?

Ay, esos ingleses...

Shut up!

The maestro's

pleased to see you.

He thinks you're going

to be a great cellist.

He wants to know

if all is well.

Do you have

happiness here?

Gosh. Yes. Heaps of it.

It's just, um...

it's just the cello.

Well, it's silly, really.

I just don't want

to be a cellist after all.

Well, I never asked

to be a cellist, you see?

It's all just a big cock-up.

One day, I was just playing,

and then the next day,

I was booked up

for the next 2 years.

I hate the cello,

if you want to know.

I think I understand

this wrong.

Yes.

Thank you.

Home.

This is what my home

smells like.

Aah!

Hello!

Who's this?

Kiffer.

Kiffer Finzi.

I'm in love

with Hilary.

I shan't be very late.

I came back

to see you.

I shan't be long.

It was terribly funny.

I'm going to get a job,

and I'm going to be

an ordinary person like you.

You couldn't be

ordinary in a million years.

And you don't know anything

apart from the cello.

I don't know anything

apart from the flute.

Jackie, we're babies.

Kiffer laughs at me.

Then why are you

marrying him?

Because he makes me

feel special.

You don't understand

that because...

you don't have anybody
