Looking for Grace Page #4

---

Oh, for God's sake.

I just-- it just--

What is wrong with you?

Come on.

Come on.

Look, just--

No, listen.

Listen.

It's perfectly fine if

we don't do this, OK?

And it's just--

No, no, no.

No.

Come on.

No.

We are going to

do it, all right?

Yes.

Yeah.

Come on.

We've waited, waited so long.

We're not going

to wait any more.

Oh, you smell so good.

Really beautiful.

Maybe we should have

a little shower.

I had a shower

this morning, Dan.

It's only 11:
00.

That's a stupid idea.

Isn't it?

It is it a thought, though.

Oh, f***.

What?

What?

Come on, just give me a--

oh come on.

I-- I just can't--

oh God, do it.

God.

Oh, I am such a bloody tool.

I'm such a bloody tool.

Can't get-- God.

Oh.

Bloody idiot.

I can't even--

anything right, ever.

Ever.

You'll be all right.

Oh, God.

I've got

you Under my skin.

I've got you.

Denise called.

Any messages?

Uh, I just said

Denise called twice.

Thanks.

What did-- did you

say where I was?

I just said you were

out getting a bun.

I've got

you under my skin.

Where are you going now?

Just going out for a bun.

Want anything?

I said to myself, this

affair never will go so well.

But why should I try to resist

when, darling, I know so well.

I've got you under my skin.

I'd sacrifice anything

come what might.

Pine palace.

Uh, yeah.

Hello?

What's wrong?

So, uh, thanks, inspector.

David.

David.

Give him a call.

Oh look, this is the--

Tom Norris.

I'm sorry.

No, we-- we'll--

we'll be all right.

We'll sort it out.

You know, I might

just grab that.

My wife will think it's me.

I hope you don't mind

me sitting on your bed.

No, no.

That's all right.

What's with the pot?

Oh, it's jardiniere.

Oh?

A jardiniere.

They're very expensive.

Really?

Yeah.

You like it?

No.

Then how come you've got it?

My aunt left it to

me and my two sisters.

Why do you keep

it in the safe?

Oh, the bloody

thing's worth a fortune.

My two sisters couldn't

agree on what to do with it.

One of them was like, oh we--

you know, we have to keep it.

It's a family heirloom.

And the other one was like,

no, no, let's sell it.

It got very ugly.

So Elaine turns up in Eileen's

place with a big Tongan

husband, and someone pulls

out a knitting needle.

So in the end I had to go around

there, take the bloody thing,

put it in the safe.

Problem solved.

I have trouble

with my sister, too.

Oh yeah?

Why?

She doesn't like

me doing this work.

Oh yeah?

Yeah, and know why?

Maybe it's because

she's a lesbian.

Really?

Yeah.

Her partner, her girlfriend,

she's pretty down on me, too.

Don't k now why.

How-- how old is your sister?

She'll be 67 in June.

Not that she'd invite me.

Never does.

Just has the girls.

I'd be happy to go.

If I was the only bloke

there, it wouldn't worry me

but says no.

You might feel uncomfortable.

Only she comes to mind.

I don't get it.

How much money was there?

About $13,000.

Really?

How come?

How come what?

How come you had that

much money in the safe?

I was going to take it

to the bank, all right?

But I've been under

a lot of pressure.

And I was-- you know, I would

have gone there this week.

I-- I don't know.

I don't know.

I don't know why.

I don't know.

Rosemary's leaving.

You're going to

need to pull over.

I need to pee.

What, now?

Yes, now.

Bloody hell.

Righto.

All right.

Can you keep an eye open?

Yeah, yeah.

Wait a minute.

Righto, off you go.

Can't sleep?

Can't sleep.

Ever had an affair, Tom?

Not really.

You?

Not really.

I came close once.

What happened?

Oh, failure of

nerves, I guess.

Doubt I could have felt any

more guilty if I'd done it,

if you know what I mean.

Yeah.

What was her name?

Mary.

I've never said that

name to anyone before.

What, no one?

No.

No.

No one.

It's quite a release, really.

Do you think it's better

to-- to do it or not to do it?

I don't know.

It's not too good not doing it.

I know that much.

Doesn't go away.

I can't stand it.

I-- but I can't stop it.

And now bloody Grace.

I swear, when we

find her I'm not

going to know whether

to hug her or kill her.

I just--

So you haven't--

you haven't done it yet?

No, no, not really.

Pretty close.

Denise seems

like a good woman.

Yes she is, but

that's the point.

No.

She liked my smile, at

least she said she did.

You have got a good smile.

Really?

Yeah, for a bloke your age.

Yeah.

Yeah, it's very

genuine, you know?

And you-- and your eyes sort

of crinkle up at the same time.

It's-- it's-- it-- looks good.

Well, thank you.

Um, what does she do?

Works in my shop.

Oh.

Yeah, I know.

She's sort of the

manager, really.

Uh-huh.

It's the sex.

Can't stop thinking about it.

It's there all the time.

All the time.

Yeah.

I feel like I'm 13 again.

She's got me, you know.

She knows it.

She just has to walk past.

I'm gone, you know?

It's just this-- it's

like like it's in the air.

She's doing something

with her hair.

I don't know if it's a

shampoo or something,

there's something.

Look.

I-- I don't know how Denise

has missed it so far.

Don't--

I think I've got

it under control.

Don't tell.

At least not until you decide

which way you're going to jump.

No.

I suppose not.

I tried to tell Nell once.

Didn't work.

Problem is I tell

Denise everything.

Oh yeah?

Yeah.

Just-- just one thing then.

How would Grace have been

able to break into that safe?

She said the combination.

Oh, yeah.

I couldn't get the

body thing to work.

Mind you, it might be better

if you don't mention that

to Denise.

Just not right now, anyway.

Oh yeah, yeah.

Tom.

Tom, can you hear me?

Tom.

Can you get out?

Sh*t.

Leave him.

Tom.

Leave him.

What are you supposed to do?

Nothing.

We can't do nothing.

Yeah, it'll stop.

Are you supposed to put

something in their mouths?

No, Dan, just leave him.

Shh.

Shh, you're all right, mate.

Shh.

You're all right.

You're all right.

You're all right.

Shh.

Shh.

Hey.

Very well.

I'm sorry.

That hasn't happened for years.

That's all right, Tom.

There?

Yeah.

You reckon?

It's a bloke, isn't it?

No.

That's her.

You sure?

Yes.

Stop.

I don't think so.

Stop the car.

No, can't.

What are you doing?

Wait till I stop.

Stop the bloody car.

Wait, wait.

What are you--

Grace.

Grace.

Grace.

Where do you think you're going?

Grace.

What's his name?

Jamie.

Jamie what?

Don't know.

What do you mean

you don't know?

I don't know, all right?

No, it's not all right.

Well, he didn't tell

me his second name.

Grace.

Dan.

What?

Damn it.

Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t.

I hope you realized you've

caused your father a lot

of grief, young lady.

Anyway, you better

have this back.

Where'd he get that?

This isn't his.

Why's he got it?

We just thought we might

need them in case something.

Just needed him, all right?

Well, when you go missing,

you lose a lot of privileges

and privacy is one of them.

I wasn't missing.

I wasn't lost.
