Why did you lie to me?

What?

You made me forget.

Okay, maybe I should just

call for that ambulance.

Elizabeth!

Will you let go of me, please?

I don't want you to go.

I don't want you to go.

And then...

Look, I'm sorry, whoever

Elizabeth is, she isn't me.

A few months

later you came back.

Mr. Maxwell?

Mr. Maxwell?

That's...

...that's me.

Is something the matter?

Of course not.

I'm Elizabeth...Lamb.

You've come to

find your car keys.

Well, they're just

right in here.

Stop.

Can you give her

the keys, Franck?

It's in the back.

Is it there, Elizabeth?

Elizabeth, is it there?!

I'm sorry.

I don't want it.

I don't know that

I ever really did.

Maybe you can

tell me sometime.

No!

No.

No, no, no...

Simon, you don't

have to do this.

I want... to forget

that you did all this.

No.

Please!

Bring it to me.

Stop, please!

Are you okay?

No!

Hey!

Shall I tell you something?

I'd rather not.

There's a parcel

for Le Pere.

Thank you.

Hello, Franck.

It looks good...

...don't you think?

Hanging on the wall.

I thought it might make me

think too much of him, but...

...instead I think of you.

You want me to send

it back, don't you?

Or sell it. ..

...and divide the money.

But...

...you know I can't do that.

Not when it means

so much to me.

Not when I've worked

so hard for it.

Simon, you're forgetting me.

You're forgetting us.

Even when you have forgotten

the one you love...

...you will gamble...

...lie, cheat...

...and steal.

Sold!

Steal for her a painting.

Simon, a painting...

...for the woman you hurt.

For the woman

you left behind.

Now perhaps,

some day, you'll find me.

I hope that you do.

But, if it's all too much...

...if you wish

that we'd never met...

...that it had

never happened...

...I can make it

go away, Franck.

All you have to do

is touch the screen.

Press right here...

...and follow my voice.

The choice is yours.

Do you want to

remember...or. ..

...do you want to forget?
