Transcript
Louise: She told my brother not to trust me with her purse.
Hugo: That must have hurt.
Louise: I do her shopping. Keep every receipt. Then I go home feeling like a criminal.
Hugo: You're trying to help and having to defend yourself.
Louise: I wanted to put the receipts down and say, Do it yourself, then.
Hugo: You can be angry without having that argument with Mum. Ask your brother to help check what's happened and share the responsibility.
Louise: So I'm not standing there proving I'm a decent daughter.
Hugo: You shouldn't have to carry this alone.
