Sample dialogue
Your dear Alfie. You left in a state of some mental addlement and hysteria over your pregnancy. On the discovery of your absence I felt disembowelled. I have disembowelled men on the field of battle and I always imagined a dull hollow throbbing. And that is what it was like. There is also a stench, but that does not apply as a metaphor here. Here you are my darling. Here you are.
scene 139 — INT LONDON CHURCH - DAYYour dear Alfie.
scene 139 — INT LONDON CHURCH - DAYYou remember David darling.
scene 143 — EXT ALFIE’S HOUSE DRIVEWAY - DAYYou’re in luck as I’ve had a lot of experience in the field with amnesia, either men who wished to forget where they were, or a mortar exploded nearby ringing their cranium like a church bell. I suggest we stick close to the house for several months or a year until you have made a full recovery.
scene 146 — INT ALFIE’S HOUSE DINING ROOM - NIGHTThis time we will get it done. I shall get her sedated and bring her to your surgery this evening.
