"Why do you think I came here?" "To get some help." "obviously, you're dealing with some inconsistencies." "well, yeah." "I wake up every morning to find my husband has died again." "I think that goes just a little beyond inconsistent." "How do you feel during the times he's dead?" "What?" "I mean, what kind of emotions run through you?" "Is it sorrow?" "Resentment?" "relief?" "What are you saying?" "well, it's a pretty common daydream to imagine people being dead." "I'm not daydreaming, okay?" "I wake up and he is dead." "Except for today." "Do you have any history of mental illness in your family?" "No." "What about yourself?" "Any episodes of psychosis?" "Memory loss?" "Judgment Iapses?" "I don't want him dead." "It was a car accident." "well, there's no crime imagining something." "I'm not imagining it." "He's dead." "well, it is a little odd" "that the prescription was for lithium." "Why?" "Because that's probably the best thing for you right now." "It'II help you cope." "Do you think you can make it in to see me here tomorrow?" "Hey, look who's here!" "Hey, Bob." "Is Jim here?" "Yeah." "How come you don't come by and see us anymore?" "Honey?" "I need to talk to you." "What is it?" "What's going on?" "I know I've been acting strange, but there's something wrong." "There's something very wrong." "What is it, the girls?" "No, no, no." "They're fine, at Ieast for now." "Can we just go somewhere?" "Just us?" "Let's just take the girls." "Let's go, just go." "Linda, I can't go anywhere." "I have to work." "please!" "I really need you." "Can you just..." "Linda, I need to go to the sales meeting." "Excuse me." "Jim, we're waiting for you." "I'm sorry."

"Put her in 1 4, please." "Ma'am, I'm gonna need you to wait out here." "Can I go with her?" "No, ma'am." "We'II take care of her." "Everything's gonna be fine." "It's gonna be okay, baby!" "Is she okay?" "Yeah, they just took her in." "They just took her in." "You all right?" "What happened?" "She just..." "She was running." "I had to get the laundry and she was..." "She just went through the glass window." "Honey." "It's okay." "It's okay." "What are you doing, Mommy?" "We are gonna forget about mirrors for a while." "till you feel a little better." "Is Bridgette gonna have ugly scars forever?" "I don't want any talk about scars." "AII right." "Because as far as I'm concerned, there are no scars." "And I don't care what anyone tells you, okay?" "You understand?" "Because you're beautiful." "Like a princess?" "Yeah." "Like a princess." "My two princesses." "I thought you were gonna put up stickers." "I did." "I don't know." "Maybe..." "Maybe I thought I did." "Christ, Linda." "What?" "What are you blaming me for this, now?" "I've asked your mother to come and stay while I'm gone." "What?" "Why?" "Just to help, you know." "I don't need any help." "help take care of the kids." "I don't need any help." "Look, you can take a break." "You know, get some time to yourself." "For what?" "Time to myself for what?" "What?"

"Friday and Sunday are still open and Wednesday." "You have one new message." "When?" "Yesterday." "Oh, God." "Jim dies" "Wednesday." "What you doing?" "Jim, don't go on this trip, please." "I have to." "We waited a year for this interview." "Besides, it could be good for us, you know?" "Take a break from each other." "well, it might be a bigger break than you bargained for." "What if something happens to you?" "Something could happen to me on my way home from work." "should I stop working?" "Jim, I'm begging." "You want me to beg?" "I will beg." "please, just don't go." "You have children and you have a family." "Why are you saying that?" "You think I've forgotten that?" "No, I haven't..." "Because I haven't!" "I realize that." "I didn't say that you've forgotten." "AII right." "Good." "Just listen to me." "I need for you to listen to me." "No, just stop it." "No, just listen to me." "Stop it." "Stop it." "Just do me one favor." "If tomorrow's Wednesday, just please wake me up before you leave." "If tomorrow's Wednesday?" "Just..." "I know it sounds crazy." "Just please wake me up, okay?" "Jesus." "Promise me." "I promise."

"You don't remember?" "claire." "claire." "Yeah." "Mom, I have to go." "What?" "You need to be with the girls." "You had the shock of your life yesterday." "tell me about it." "Is there something we should be talking about?" "Something involving my husband?" "Who told you?" "I think you just did." "He was gonna cheat on me." "He what?" "well, wait a minute." "How do you know?" "How did you find out?" "Because I talked to her." "She told me everything." "When?" "Today." "Oh, hon, I'm sorry." "Are you still in shock?" "No." "No, I passed up shock a couple days ago." "The whole thing is bad." "The accident, the other woman, it's a mess." "I don't know if it's so bad." "You know, maybe it was supposed to happen." "What do you mean?" "Even though he didn't do anything yet." "The damage that it wouId have caused us, the girls." "Maybe it was enough that he was going to." "Are you listening to what you're saying?" "We were roommates, Annie." "We were roommates with two girls, and my roommate was a liar." "well, as far as your mortgage and your daughters' education, it should all be taken care of." "And with the annuity Jim left you, you should be pretty much set income-wise, so..." "You know, Linda, I have to tell you, the timing on all this..." "Timing?" "What do you mean, timing?" "Jim stopped in to see me Wednesday morning, right before his trip." "Wednesday?" "Yeah." "And he seemed very anxious, Iike he wasn't quite sure of things, and he kept talking about you and the girls, and he said that, no matter what happened, he wanted to make sure you're all okay." "And then he tripled his death benefits." "I mean, it's not a problem." "The police reports all confirm it was an accident." "So, I'II just get this cleared through the main office and I should have a check for you fairly soon." "Nice view, huh?" "Yes, very." "You have a family?" "I have two daughters but..."

"Thank you, Mommy." "You're welcome." "You know how much I Iove you, right?" "Linda?" "Yeah." "I don't want to upset you." "What is it, Mom?" "I know this is very difficult, but I really do think we need to drive out to the funeral home, dear." "I'II go with you." "Oh, it's done." "What?" "I already made all the arrangements." "Oh."
