- Every day!

Jon:
It doesn't matter how long

you've gone out for,

you always need to set it.

This is London. It's not

some bloody village, is it?

I thought I heard something.

It must have been upstairs.

It's me. Come back. Now.

Justin:
I can't come now.

Come back now!

- Hi.

- Hi.

- Can we come in?

- Sure.

Sorry. Kate!

Look!

- They've deleted them.

Give me the key.

Give me the key!

They've changed it.

What are you talking about?

You knew I was here

and you changed it!

When were you here?

I really didn't want you

to see this room.

I saw you in the garden.

You took a picture of him.

Yes, I did, so what?

Why would you do that?

Do you have any idea

what we're going through?

Kate, come upstairs.

Justin:
Come upstairs, now.

Go to work.

I said I'm working from home

this morning.

- You don't need to check on me.

- I'm not checking on you.

I saw what I saw.

Kate...

Listen to me.

Neither of us are

fully ourselves at the moment.

What does that mean?

It means that what you think

you saw, you didn't see.

Did I see you flirting with her?

Did I see that?

You're a liar.

My folks are coming down.

They're having a weekend

in London.

So they'll probably pop in.

- You called them.

- No, I didn't.

You called them and you asked

them to come and look after me

like I'm some f***ing

mental patient.

With your family history,

what do you expect me to do?

Oh, f***!

Where are you going?

Hi, baby.

Hi, baby.

I love you, baby.

Mommy loves you.

Mommy's going to look after you

so nothing will go wrong.

Nothing.

What do you need?

Tell me.

- I need to leave that house.

- Okay.

- I need to leave now.

- We'll go now.

I'll get the car.

We'll call some estate agents.

We'll find somewhere to rent.

Hey.

This might be more like it.

Yes, this is the one.

You like it?

Why can't we move today?

He said it takes a couple of

days for the credit checks.

Then let's go to a hotel.

It'll be fun.

It's expensive enough as it is.

It's two days,

and we don't have to see them.

I'll stay with you.

Okay?

Don't tell them

where we're going.

Don't tell them anything.

Promise.

Promise!

I promise.

Justin:

Why is it so last minute?

Look...

Okay, so... isn't there

someone else that can do it?

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, okay.

I'll see what I can do.

Justin:
It's someone from the

Michel khoury foundation.

He's in town. He wants to meet

me about a donation.

You said you would stay.

We're talking about five hundred

thousand pounds, Kate.

Do you know how far that'll go?

Look, it'll take two hours.

Phone some movers, arrange

them for tomorrow. Okay?

One letter of confirmation.

Please don't go.

Nothing is going to happen.

Justin...

Nothing. Go.

Tomorrow. At ten.

Forty boxes.

- How much will that be?

- 200 pounds in total.

Um... yeah. That would be fine.

Just remember, when you

get here, it's the top buzzer.

Yeah, alright. That's fine.

See you tomorrow.

- Thank you.

- Bye.

- Did you try the Swiss office?

- Yeah.

They're trying to work out

who it could have been.

He didn't leave a number?

F*** this.

Okay, I'm going home.

- Call me if you hear anything.

- Sure.

No! Oh, no!

Kate's... she's...

Where's Billy?

Did she give you Billy?

No. What's happened?

- Where's Jon?

- He's away on business.

Where is he?

What has she done with...

- Justin, calm down.

- What's she done with him? No!

- No! No!

- It's okay...

He's... he's not there!

He's not there!

He's not here...

He's not here!

No! Where is he...?

He's not here!

No!

When does your plane leave?

Uh, not 'til four.

Jon says that you're moving too?

Yes. We couldn't stay.

- Not after...

- Sure.

Jon left this morning.

He's in Frankfurt,

already finding a place.

I can't find the cat.

I mean, if you see it,

put it in a home, would you?

Yes.

I'll let you get on.

Goodbye.

It's much better this way.

Hello, Peter.
