The distance between the two is almost tangible and he torments her incessantly. In the garden he sees a one-legged blackbird that symbolises all he is going through, the desire for happiness but never quite achieving it. Whilst he is sitting there writing his diary a frisbee comes over the wall closely followed by it’s owner, Debbie, a 16yr old tearaway who’s been in trouble all her life. The two talk, she’s not ware of his situation and he hopes that she’ll come again. She does. A relationship develops. She enlivens his final days while he tries to teach her to read and write. Moira, the wife, discovers the relationship and the nurse, Sister McCluskey, sends the girl away. Harry is distraught but in the dead of night Debbie returns with gifts of whiskey and cigarettes. He has conformed all his life and persuades Debbie to steal one final car for them. She takes him to a hill overlooking the lights of the city where he reflects on his life and its worth. As he nears the end the nurse discovers the evidence of the whiskey bottle. He begins to weaken and the wife is brought to the bedside where she meets the girl again. The two them are present in his final hours but his last cry is not for the wife but the girl. As Debbie sadly leaves the scene at the end of the play she finds the body of the one-legged blackbird.
