MOSHE So you get blamed by Dad for things that are not your fault at all?                         DONNA ERNIE DONNA ERNIE DONNA Yeah. Oh not really that. The same happens with Mum just sometimes. But we don’t really see much of each other now. Why? (accusing) Why, ’cause Dad’s always at work, then with you at the footy. So and then… ? And then I go out Friday nights. I never see him at nights during the week. I see him when he is at home and that’s all. ✻ Donna’s words can be understood in a number of ways.

But there is some confusion here between Moshe and Donna about which of the three items is being considered. If she was simply asked to come to a further session, and this was not coupled with an implied request that she go home and act differently, she may have responded more favourably. Nevertheless, she listens closely and her voice as she begins to respond is much softer and more reflective. She is wary because she sees therapy as keeping her at home, and therefore as a way of preventing the change which she sees as the only viable solution.

When it comes to her interests, she feels she is on the outside. She misses the warmth or comfort which is absent even when she is in great distress.     ✻ MOSHE DONNA MOSHE DONNA MOSHE DONNA MOSHE DONNA MOSHE Donna, when you took the overdose, did you try to kill yourself? Yeah. You just felt that life was just not worth living? Yeah, exactly. You felt what’s the point in going on? Yeah. Did you have any other thoughts then? No. Do you think you are likely to do it again? ✻ Moshe does not allow Ernie to distract Donna from her despair.
