Susan Spafford: Nanny
Quotes
-
Angelica's Mother : Is that locket yours?
Angelica : Yes, it's always been mine.
Angelica's Mother : Do you still have a picture in it?
Angelica : [opening the locket] Yes, ever since my mother put it around my neck as a baby. And then left me...
Angelica's Mother : And then left you because she was forced to. Gertrude seemed so nice, told us we could get you whenever we wanted. But then she vanished. Left no address, all your father had was an account number to pay your support money into.
Angelica : Mother? Mummy! Oh Mummy!
[they hug]
Angelica's Mother : Baby! My baby! I mean, I hope you understand that neither I nor your father wanted to give you up. But we had to. And Gertrude seemed so nice. She told us we could get you whenever we wanted to.
Angelica : I never thought you'd abandon me! And the hope that one day I'd find you kept me going like a burning light. You and my father were always there, always in my heart.
