Mommy?

Mommy?

Mommy?

Mommy?

Hello, Joanna.

Mom...?

Quite a lot of worry

you caused everybody.

Poor Walter is very concerned.

Where are my children?

The first time I met you,

I knew you were a good mother.

Well, they're quite safe.

Having a lovely

evening with Charmaine.

She was thrilled to have them.

What have you got there?

Oh, no. No.

No, you're not gonna need that.

It's nothing like that at all.

You've got quite the wrong idea.

You've had the wrong

idea all the time.

It's nothing like you imagine.

Just another stage.

Think about it like that,

and there's nothing to it.

Why?

Why?

Because we can.

We found a way of doing it,

and it's just perfect.

It's perfect for us

and perfect for you.

You're a very good subject.

Perhaps the best we've had.

You were brighter than most.

Do you mind if I make a call?

See, think of it

the other way around.

Wouldn't you like some perfect stud

waiting on you around the house?

Praising you? Servicing you?

Whispering how your sagging flesh

was beautiful,

no matter how you looked?

Excuse me.

Everything's fine.

Just as I said.

Aren't I always right?

Yes, I'll take it from now.

Everybody can go home.

Well,

that's all there is.

So why don't we get it over.

You know, you hurried us a little.

We weren't quite ready for you,

if you want to know the truth.

Oh, no.

Oh, God.

- Hi, Kit. How are you?

- Hello, Marie Ann.

Linda, what do you want?

I don't want to spend my

entire day in the supermarket.

Look, we live in a nice neighbourhood.

This is clean, safe.

Why don't you give it a chance.

- Hello, Marie.

- Hello, Charmaine.

- Hi, Carol.

- Hi, Charmaine.

- Hello, Carol.

- Hi, Pat.

- Hi, Bobby.

- Hello, Carol. How are you?

Oh, I'm fine.

- Hello, Bobby.

- Hello, Joanna. How are you?

- Oh, I'm fine. How are you?

- I'm fine.

- How are the children?

- They're fine.

- And yours?

- Fine, fine.
