"I can't remember if Joel told me or not." "Actually, no." "I, uh..." "I wasn't serious about things at that age, at your age." "I, uh, I had other ideas, things." "Oh." "Yeah?" "Music." "I thought maybe, uh..." "I played a lot of music." "Mostly keyboard, piano." "Ah, I was wondering about that." "I figured Joel took lessons as a kid." "Mm." "Well, I wanna hear." "Play something." " No." " Oh." "Those days are far away." "That thing is a shelf now." "If it wasn't so heavy, it'd be long gone." "So, when you met Mary, you were a musician?" "A long, long time ago." "Oh." "I sold her a bill of goods." "Well, we all change." "Yeah." "It's too bad." "Oh, well." "What can you do?" "[Robert] Don't fall for his bullshit." "Not after so many years of it, not when..." "We're so close." "You are so close to finally breaking free." "No, but I can't do it." "It's... not..." "I'm confused." "I'm confused." "And my son is here with his girlfriend." " It's not a good time." " Mary, listen to me." "It is a good time." " It's the only time." " No." "This is all you get, this is it, okay?" "It's either him or me, and I'm not even joking this time, okay?" "You need to make a choice." "Now." "But before you make this choice, you need to consider this." "Is this man he's being now, this... this new him who would suddenly, after years, turn into Mr. Right the very week that he feels threatened, when he knows that he's gonna lose you..." "Is that the real him?" "If that's not the case, then you know it's only a matter of time before the real him shows himself again." "The man you couldn't take until recently." "And this time..." "you'll be facing it alone." "And this time..." "you'll be facing it alone." "And this time..." "you'll be facing it alone." "♪♪" "All alone, I swear to God." "I will move if I have to." "[keys jingle]" "You will never, ever see me again." "Have me to cry to." "Have me to love you." "Not until you make your decision." "[laughing]" " Oh, there she is." " [ERIN LAUGHS]" "Hello." " Hello." " Hi, Morn." "They just had breakfast if you can believe it." "When was the last time you woke up at noon?" "Geez, I miss those days." " You okay?" " Yeah." "Hey, we were just hearing about the cover band." " [scoffs] The worst." " Mm-hmm." "I thought we should be called The Butchers." "[sighs]" "So, what, this is it?" " Pajamas all day?" "Hmm?" " Mm-hmm." "What, are you gonna go back to bed now?" "You gonna have a little breakfast at dinnertime?" " What's up?" " No, we're gonna make dinner." "And when I say we, I obviously mean him." "Oh, is that true?" "For real?" " Sure, why not?" " Good." "Oh." "Well, I guess, uh..." "I'll take Erin shopping with me." " Mm-hmm." " Yeah?" "And then if you need some help cooking, your father can..." "Stop." " Stop it." " What?" "What can I do?" "I don't know." "You tell us." "What can you do?" "Huh?" " Have fun, yeah?" " Yeah." "You want something to drink?" "Some, uh, soda or something?" "[dishes clattering]" "What?" "[bottles clatter]" " Hey." " Hey." "[pouring liquid]" "So... [clears throat]" "Seems like you and Mom are getting along." "It happens." "Does it?" "Occasionally." "It's cool." "[chuckles]" " I've been having a really good time." " Oh." "Wanted to meet you for awhile." "I mean, Joel, he loves you, you know?" "Oh, I know." "It's just nice to hear." "He's not the best at sharing." "At least with me." "Well, what guy is?" "What the...?" "Excuse me." "[hissing] [hitting car]" "What was that?" "No, it's... it's all right." " Did she just hiss at you?" " It's all right." " That's insane." " It's all right." "It's all right." " [doorbell rings]" " Coming." " Hello." " Hi." "You're a vision on my front porch." "You don't have to ring the bell, hon." " You can just come in." " Okay." "Where's Mary?" "Does she need help with the bags?" "No, she doesn't." "She's out." ""She's out"?" "Okay, well, come on in." " [phone vibrating]" " Hold on, that's her." "Hello?" "Okay." "All right, hold, uh..." "Let me get upstairs." "Hold on." "♪♪" " Hey." " Hi." " That was weird." " Yeah." " What was that?" " I don't know." "What's wrong?" "What happened now?" "Something weird happened outside just now." "Wait, what do you mean "weird"?" "Why?" "What are you talking about?" "Okay" "Okay" "Okay" "♪♪" "Where's Mom?" "No, don't bullshit me." "Where's Mom?" "She'll be here soon." " Soon?" "Where did she go?" " I don't know." "I need you to tell me where she went." "I swear to God, I will beat the shit out of you." "All we can do is wait." "No, Joel!" "You're a cheating piece of shit." "You know that, right?" "You do know that, right?" "Yes." "♪♪" "[crying]" "[sets parking brake]" "[tires Screech]" "[sobs] [hitting car]" "[crying]" " [keys jingle] - [cuts engine]" "[crickets chirping]" "♪♪" "I know you're mad at him, but I made mistakes, too." "I'm sorry, you'll never know how sorry I am." "[sighs]" "We messed up, but we're not bad people." "Okay" "[groans]" "[footsteps approaching]" "Please?" "Nah, I don't need to sit." "I'm fine here." "[Mary] What happened to your hand?" "Oh." "Please, please sit down." "I'm asking you, please." "I don't know why, though." "I mean, I got it." "Dad's a lying, cheating piece of shit, and you're leaving him, you've finally had enough of it, right?" "Yes, right." "[chuckling]" " Okay." " No, but don't, please." "This is my time to talk, so would you sit the fuck down?" "Damn it, I get it, okay?" "I get it, it's worse for you than it is for everyone else." "[sighs]" "And I am sorry." "You'll never know how sorry I am, and I'm sure you'll never forgive him or me." "This is why I wanted to wait to tell you until you were here, so we could speak face-to-face and you would be with somebody that you love and that loves you." " So, let me just say..." " Wait a second." "You were planning on telling me this?" "You were waiting until I got here?" "So, why all the show?" "Like, why would you... act like this, that?" "Like, why are you acting like you're happy together?" "Okay, we weren't pretending." "No, no, you don't get the chance to tell me anything." "No. 'Cause none of it's true." "You're the same as him." "You're the same hypocrites." "You fucking disgust me." " Joel." " Joel." "No." "Fuck your stupid lies and your bullshit world." "No, Joel!" "Fuck... it's all bullshit." "That's bullshit." " Honey!" " [Erin] Don't, no." " It's bullshit." "Bullshit." " Stop!" "Fuck this." "I'm getting your stuff." "We're out of this place." "God." " [door slams] - [sighs]" "Well." "Geez." "You have to do something." "[stammers]" "We can't let him leave like this." "We'll never see him again." "But he's right." "Come on, you're dragging this out." "We need to go." " I'm going as fast as I can." " Well..." " Are you sure you wanna leave like this?" " Yeah." "No, are you kidding me?" "We need to go now, Erin." "We need to go, like, right now." "[Erin sighs and clears her throat] [crying]" "Hey." " Baby, it's okay." " No." "Sorry." "I'm sorry." "Sweetheart..."
