[00:00.71]Anyway, I get lunch set up, labeling anything that'll go bad with the date and time.
[00:05.03]I let the pants out for one of the pilots who's been enjoying our cooking,
[00:08.32]make a balloon animal for a crying toddler, and then I check on Hannah,
[00:12.71]leaving messages for anyone she can reach.
[00:14.89]
[00:14.90]HANNAH
[00:14.91]I am here
[00:18.65]I am here on an island.
[00:21.65]Hello? Hello? It's me again.
[00:24.37]Yeah, my son.
[00:25.83]He's with Rescue 2
[00:27.14]Any news?
[00:28.63]I am his mother
[00:29.71]I'm far away, stuck here.
[00:31.26]I'm trying to find out if-
[00:33.09]Fine. I'll hold again.
[00:34.79]I should be down there
[00:35.92]and check in the hospitals,
[00:38.00]putting up signs,
[00:38.88]doing something, instead I am
[00:41.50]here
[00:43.96]I am here in Canada
[00:46.49]I am telling you, listen,
[00:48.53]my son, he takes risks
[00:50.18]He's not missing; he's helping or hurt
[00:52.24]He'll get out of this.
[00:53.55]Yes, I keep trying
[00:54.69]And yes, here's the number
[00:56.52]And yes, at the Legion in Gander, I'll be right here.
[01:00.23]I should be there,
[01:01.25]when it's over and done,
[01:02.90]when he comes through the door and says,
[01:04.83]\"I'm home, mum.\"
[01:06.63]I should be there for my son
[01:08.46]but instead I am
[01:10.00]here
[01:12.08]I am here.
[01:16.30]
[01:16.31]BEULAH
[01:16.32]She leaves message after message for her son,
[01:18.83]until there's no more room on his answering machine.
