Bertha Swift was out of sorts all day, so David Locke had her film other people's scenes.
The next day, Mary Scott, Brian Joule, Zoe Thatcher, James Jerome, and Stella Murray all went to film the "Detectives and Wilderness" variety show.
This left only Bertha Swift, Adam Piers, and some unimportant extras with the crew.
Bertha Swift had a rough day yesterday, and even in her dreams she was acting. When she woke up in the morning, there were faint dark circles under her eyes, which the makeup artist had to cover with foundation.
The dark circles might be covered, but the fatigue couldn't be hidden.
Since her abortion, she hadn't properly rested, and combined with a lack of nutrition leading to some iron deficiency anemia, her mental state had always been poor. Lately, she had been working nonstop with the crew, and although the set's meals were unusually good, it couldn't make up for her body's deficiencies.
