Mum, can I ask a favour?
You know how you were going to send me a hotel gift certificate… is there any chance you could just transfer me a few hundred dollars instead?
There’s some professional training I’d like to do
Matt doesn’t have to start paying child support until the divorce is final and I can’t quite squeeze it into my monthly budget
MUM
I’ll do it right now
But I’m going to send you that gift voucher too
You should do something nice for yourself, sweetheart – not just to keep your head above water
FIONA
This is for me. I promise.

FIONA

SATOSHI
