(MOANS)

(LOW GROWL)

You are nothing.

(SNARLING, HISSING)

You're nothing!

(HISSING)

This is my house!

(ROARING)

You are trespassing in my house!

(SCREECHING)

(GROWLING)

If you touch my son again

I'll f***ing kill you!

(SCREECHING, ROARING)

(SAMUEL SCREAMS)

No!

(GROWLING FADES)

(LOW MOAN)

Mummy, don't!

Don't!

(MOANS)

(HIGH-PITCHED SCREAM)

Aaaargh!

Watch out for your mum's leg,

little one.

He's fine.

I've had the stitches out.

What time's the party?

Any time after three is fine.

I'll see you in a few hours, then.

Bye.

Bye, Sam.

PRUE:
That school's

a good choice.

AMELIA:
I've been doing

a lot of reading about it

so I think

Sam will be happy there.

He's been out of school

over two weeks now.

It's time to get back.

We needed some time

to sort a few things out.

Mmm.

Are you having a party'?

It's Sam's birthday today.

My first birthday

I've ever celebrated.

That's not true.

Yes, it is.

My first party on the day.

That's unusual.

My husband died the day

that Sam was born.

He got killed driving Mum

to the hospital to have me.

Sam's just like his dad was.

Always speaks his mind.

Well, parties are lots of fun,

especially when they're yours.

My cousin's not coming because

I broke her nose in two places.

(TEACUP RATTLES GENTLY)

I'll take that for you.

Good shot.

Look, there's another one!

Where's your bowl?

Wow. You've got a lot today.

Am I ever gonna see it'?

One day, when you're bigger.

You go outside, and you don't

come in until I tell you.

(GROWLING)

Argh!

Argh!

It's alright.

(GASPS) It's alright.

It's alright.

Shhh...

Shhh...

Shhh...

Shhh...

Shhh...

How was it?

It was pretty quiet today.

Come here.

It's getting much better, Mum.

Wait!

I have a new trick.

Life is not always as it seems.

Nothing in my hands.

Nothing in my hands.

- That's great!

- I haven't finished.

Abracadabra!

How did you do that?

(LAUGHS)

Come here, you.

Come here.

Happy birthday, sweetheart.
