[Elizabeth]

Emily?


Are you in here? Didn't you hear me calling?


[Emily]

Daddy's not here.


[Elizabeth]

Well, actually, it was you that I came to see. Would you mind if we talked for a moment? I brought you some daisies. I wasn't sure which one was your favorite color, so I just got all kinds.


[Emily]

Thanks.


[Elizabeth]

Emily, I'm really sorry about what happened the other night. I want you to know that I'm not trying to come between you and your dad. Do you think maybe we could start over? (Can) we be friends?

Do you like games?

I love games. Would you like to play one?

I'm already playing.


[Elizabeth]

What game are you playing?

Hide and seek.


[Elizabeth]

Don't you need another person to play that game?


[Emily]

He's already hiding.

Charlie.

You stay here. Charlie... Come out, come out wherever you are.
