Mary Triplet watches Bernard from their truck while in town running errands. When left alone, Mary quickly becomes disorientated and forgets where she is even if she is in familiar surroundings that have been in her life since childhood. There is no other option for Bernard but to take her with him everywhere he goes because she can’t be left alone.
