[KIM]
Good evening, maam

[ELLEN]
Don't turn the bed yet

[KIM]
I'm not the maid

[ELLEN]
What do you want then?

[KIM]
They must have written the room number wrong
I am looking for someone named Christopher Scott
Three-seventeen, oh I'm sorry... unless
Well, you must be, of course, you're John's wife, are you not?

[ELLEN]
Oh God, I see
It had to happen
You must be Kim, Chris went to find you
Please come inside, no one will hurt you
I'm Chris' wife, my name is Ellen

In a way, I am glad I am meeting you first
Understand, you were only a name till tonight
I don't know how I'd feel if our roles were reversed
Please won't you sit down?
[KIM]
Tell me you are lying

[ELLEN]
We've been married a year, I am sorry, it's true

[KIM]
He said he'd come to get me

[ELLEN]
He says he tried to reach you, but what could he do?

[KIM]
Please tell me you're not married
You don't know, you can't know what I've done to be here

[ELLEN]
You don't know how he needed a new start

[KIM]
I feel walls in my heart
Closing in
I can't breathe
I can't win

[ELLEN]
As for the child, you say it's Chris'
[KIM]
Oh yes, Madame, my son is Chris'

[ELLEN]
Of course we'll help

[KIM]
Please keep your pity

[ELLEN]
It's not a gift, it is our duty

[KIM]
I had a dream for my son to belong
Not live his life in the streets like a rat

[ELLEN]
We aren't rich, but we'll shoulder our load
Chris and I are totally together on that

[KIM]
Then you must take Tam with you

[ELLEN]
Take a child from his mother, impossible! Kim -
[KIM]
You will take Tam with you
Then he'll get what I wanted for him

[ELLEN]
But Kim, your child needs you
Chris is married to me, we want kids of our own

[KIM]
Tam's chance lies with you now, not with me

[BOTH]
No!
Can't you see
It won't work
It can't be

[KIM]
If you're saying that because you've made him change his mind
Chris must go away and leave me and his son behind
If you're saying that because my husband has another wife
My child has no future, like the dust of life
He must come tonight to my place
Tell me so to my face

[ELLEN]
I don't want this
I didn't come here
To meet a girl
Who loves my husband
I came here to help, but what do I do?
Now, after this, what do I—
