She then focuses in on one photo in particular, of a child, she then tears it into pieces in a angry rage. It then cuts away the woman going into a cupboard and retrieving a suitcase in which there is the doll. She immediatly treats the doll as if it where living and the film then shows different scenarios involving both the woman and doll; such as them playing in the park and the woman brushing the dolls hair in the mirror. It then cuts to the woman in the park watching the children and mothers playing together. She then focuses in on one child in particular she becomes intranced by her. She then follows this child and mother home. The child is then putting her bike away in front of the house alone, and the woman is stalkerly watching from the pavement.
