Martin: Couldn't, um,
pass me a paper towel, could you?
[paper rustle]
[rip]
Jude: Hannah, is my hairbrush still in your room?
Hannah: Yes.
J: And you'll offer some smoothie to Martin as well, won't you?
M: Already Friday.
You got a big day ahead of you, eh?
Still got a bit of work to do on the old art board.
H: Do you want some?
M: Sounds delightful.
[splash]
M: I'm here for you, Hannah.
I hope you know that.
[clack, clack]
H: Do you know what my comic is about?
M: I picked up a- [loud blending]
few pieces here and there! But I'd be happy to learn more!
H: Once upon a time there was a king and a queen.
who ruled over the land.
The king had a passion for gardening.
People said that the plants were so happy that they had begun to smile.
One day the king was mysteriously murdered.
A knight was called upon to protect the land and investigate what had happened.
And as she travelled towards the castle
She had found that the plants had gotten out of control.
And had left the garden and were spreading through the forests and villages.
When she reached the castle she was met with a flower.
That had grown so big and powerful that it could walk and talk and smile and
and LIE. [thunk]
This flower man was named Oz.
And by the time the knight had reached her destination Oz had already seduced the Queen.
Now he had access to the Queen's Treasury,
and the power to control all the beautiful flowers.
He could control the Queen herself,
bending her to his will.
Jude: Hannah.
Can I talk to you?
J: I need you to try with Martin.
H: I was just telling him a story.
J: Hannah, you're angry, and that's okay.
I need you to understand a few things;
You remember when...
When you were younger especially,
your father, sometimes he couldn't get out of bed for weeks.
And then he'd be fine. He'd be really good.
He'd go out and buy a barbecue and invite all our friends over all in one afternoon.
Just before your father left,
He did something very, very careless, and he took himself off his meds.
And sure enough when he stopped taking them he felt really good.
But I knew that would drop.
But then he started to think that- that I was against him, Hannah.
And when things started getting worse,
I was worried. For his safety.
And I told him if things didn't get better I'd have to -
When things get serious you have to send that person to a hospital or a home.
And next day he was gone.
To England.
H: My dad wasn't crazy!
J: No, no, I'm not saying he was.
H: Martin-
J: Martin! Martin was there for me.
H: Can't you see? Martin wanted to get rid of him to get to you!
And he did!
J: Martin isn't out to get you.
H: But dad was right. You were lying to him.
J: I tried to help your father when he was manic but he refused.
And I'm trying to do the same for you. I'm trying to help.
But if you don't go to counselling,
And you continue to see Martin, or me, as a threat.
There are only so many things I can do.
H: You just want to lock all your problems away.
M: Hannah?
[strangled breathing]
M: What was in that smoothie?
Not, uh, cashews perhaps?
[laboured breathing]
M: It's alright. You'll need to get my EpiPen.
It's in the hallway. It's okay.
Hannah, please. It's in my bag.
[swoompf]
J: Remind me to show you how to do this.
It's quite simple.
You can't go in to work today, I'll call Theresa now.
[school chatter]
Sophia: You look like you've seen a ghost.
Hey, hey, what's wrong?
H: Martin. He looked like he was gonna die.
I almost killed him.
I knew about the cashews but- but I didn't know.
He was like, "auhh!" And then, "bluhh"
And then my mum came in And she was like, "AUHHH!"
And now my mum, she threatened my dad,
And now she's trying to threaten me.
And, it was never Martin. It was her
S: I don't know what you mean.
H: Fuck.
I'll tell you all this tomorrow.
But today I have to act like everything's fine.
Tomorrow, yeah?
