And I want you to tell me
what happens when I let go.

:55:04
Good girl, well done.
:55:05
- We'll do an internal, Sister.
- All right, doctor.

:55:11
Now then, Mrs. Barnes,
:55:13
l, uh... I don't have
very good news, I'm afraid.

:55:17
- Why, why, what's happening?
- I'm going to have to operate.

:55:21
- Pamela is a very sick girl.
- She ain't gonna die, is she?

:55:23
We sincerely hope not, Mrs. Barnes,
:55:25
But this is a grave situation,
as I'm sure you'll understand.

:55:28
Now then...
:55:29
when Pamela was admitted this evening,
:55:31
you stated that she was having a miscarriage.
:55:33
Yes.
:55:35
But that isn't the whole truth, is it?
:55:39
Mrs. Barnes...
:55:41
did you do something to Pamela to try
:55:43
- to bring about a termination?
- No, I didn't!

:55:45
Well, somebody did.
:55:47
You know that and I know that.
:55:50
Mrs. Barnes, I've been a doctor
for over 25 years.

:55:54
Sister and I see cases like this
every weekend,

:55:56
- don't we, Sister?
- Yes, we do.

:56:01
All right...
:56:04
someone come to the house.
:56:08
And what did they do?
:56:09
She grated pink soap
into a bowl of warm water

:56:11
and she had a bottle of stuff and she put--
:56:13
- And she used a syringe.
- Yes.

:56:16
And no doubt, she'll use her syringe again.
:56:18
And again and again
and again, and Sister and l

:56:20
will have to deal with dozens of cases
just like Pamela's.

:56:23
Mrs. Barnes, these people must be stopped.
:56:29
You're going to have to inform the police.
:56:31
l ain't talking to them.
:56:35
Sister Coombes.
:56:37
Righty-oh. They're ready for you
in theater, Mr. Walsh.

:56:41
Thank you, Sister.
:56:44
Mrs. Barnes, if you don't inform
the police, I'm going to have to.

:56:47
Unfortunately, it's my
legal obligation to do so.

:56:50
Excuse me.
