0100: Father's Day [Accidental Video]

Rain's cowering as far up against a wall as she can, head ducked as if to avoid being hit. She clearly wants to cover her head with her arms, but doesn't - as if she's been warned not to.

No, I... People here say that's not true. I'm not bad.

She flinches away even more.

Please don't. Please.

She tries to slide unobtrusively along the wall towards the open front of the house where she can run, but it is as if an invisible person blocks her way, driving her toward the back of the house. Finally she slides down the wall, pulling her knees in tight and wrapping her arms around her head.

Okay, yes, YES, you're right!

I'm bad and ugly and stupid and a slut and it's all my fault, all of it. And I should never have run away. I was bad, I know, just please, please don't.

Do you want me to talk to you until one of them gets to you?

Yes please. I'd like that a lot.

Then I will.

How have you been? I'm sorry we haven't talked much, I've been a little busy.

I'm good. My mind's even a little better.

And it's okay. I've been busy too.

How have you been? Besides busy?

Mostly okay, nothing I can really complain about.

I'm glad your mind is a little better. Have you been learning things, then?

I've been learning more about me. About what's real and what things were lies.

I didn't know how much was lies before.

Funny. None of what I know now matters when he's back saying tha bad things again.

But you know what he's saying isn't true?

I think I will when he's gone.

And you know it's not him, it's the City being horrible.

Mostly, yes. It's hard when he's right here and so real.

Well, I don't think the same as him. You're one of the best people in the Library.

You're a very very nice man, Ianto.

Oh, not really. I'm just telling the truth.

Oh, Ianto!
