Tara Fitzgerald: Mother
Quotes
-
Mother : Robert! Robert, wait! Now, Uncle Albert will meet you at the station.
Robert : Do you think he'll have model planes? Fighters, like the ones Dad will be flying?
Mother : I'm not sure, dear, but he does have a son called Horace who's about your age. He might.
Father : Cyril, you're in charge now. Children, you're all to listen to Cyril while we're away.
Robert : Why is he in charge? You're not in charge of me!
Cyril : Robert, I am.
Robert : Dad, is there any way I can come with you?
Father : Robert, who is the most important member of any mission?
Robert : You are. The pilot.
Father : No, it's the navigator. A pilot would be lost without one. Your mum and I need you to keep everyone on course.
Robert : You can count on me.
Father : [hands him a compass] So you always know where to find me.

Jane : Mummy, I can't believe you're home!
Robert : Mum, we didn't know you were coming!
Jane : Did you get my letter?
Mother : Yes, I did, precious.
Cyril : Something's wrong.
Mother : It's your father.
Robert : Is he here?
Mother : No, Robert. His plane went down behind enemy lines several days ago. He's missing.
Robert : No!

Mother : [to Robert about Horace] He's in shock. But he'll be okay. You did the right thing bringing him to me. Now... what happened?
