"Are you ok?" "Yeah, are you?" "This night was rough." " Did you come to take care of me?" " Is there an option?" "Yeah." "What most people do when they're around me." " Leave." " No way." "Life would just be too predictable." " How do I look?" " Good." "You suck at lying." "But I'm glad you tried." "Rise and shine, darling." "I'm heading out for today and I might not be home tonight." "Really, Ashley." "I tolerate your playmates, but do they have to be here in the morning?" "I'm sorry, I just fell asleep." "You remember my friend Spencer, right mom?" "Right." "Look hon, I can't leave you if you insist on bringing home this kinda friends." " Actually I just came to take care of her." " And I'm sure you did that very well." " Mom, could you please try and be nice?" " Oh I have been." "To Paige who stole my credit card." "To Elizabeth who passed out eating my valium." "Then there was the one with the piercings." "She moved in and we had to have help to get rid off her." "There, this ought to cover you to get home." "Ciao." "I'm so sorry." "It's how it is every morning?" "No, that only happens once a month, when I see her." "Did you really sleep with all those girls?" "Those are just the ones she found out about." "They never meant anything." "That makes it better." "Better watch out, Mom and Dad are back They know you were gone all night." "You sound almost happy about that." " You're okay, Spencer?" " Yeah, I'm fine?" "Ashley isn't feeling too good though." "Ashley?" "you were supposed to be with Aiden." "Forget it, Glenn, your stupid plan didn't work." "Is it too much to ask for a phone call?" "Whether we're here or not we deserve to know where you are and if you're okay." " Not to mention you missed church." " I'm sorry I spent the night at Ashley's." "I didn't think you and dad would be back so early." "Now we know you don't go to mass unless we make you." "Sorry." "Spencer." "Don't you see I'm worried about you?" "Ever since we moved here, you've changed." "What am I supposed to do?" "Stay the same?" " Spencer, list..." " No, dad." "You know what?" "Glenn goes out every night." "And nobody says anything." "And then I go out to help a friend and get the Inquisition?" "A little double standard, don't you think?" " It's that girl, I've told you." " Here we go again." "You know what?" "Her name is Ashley, Ashley." "Why won't you ever say her name?" "You want me to say her name?" "I'll say her name." " You are not allowed to see Ashley." " What?" "Why?" "Because she's a bad influence." "I am telling you, you are forbidden to see Ashley." "How are you gonna stop me?" "You're never home." "Paula." "What is wrong with you?" "You're on the edge, here" "Don't you dare make this about me." "This is about our daughter." "And this relationship she's having with that Ashley." "Don't you see you're letting it drive a wedge between you and Spencer?" "Really?" "Maybe I should go away and you'll deal with it, cause you obviously know best." "You do what you have to do." "I'm sick and tired of following you and not really knowing why." " What are you doing?" " I'm checking your lifeline." "I wanna know if you're gonna be around for a while." "Get a room!" "Since when did this become the island of Lesbos?" "It's hard to get pissed when she makes a geography joke." "I wonder if she even knows what it means." "I know her evil minions don't." "you know you're right." "We're gonna be late for class." "I'm glad your folks were fighting." "Cause, I mean, it normals them up." "My mom loves a good fight with my dad." "She says it's all about the make up sex." "Thanks for the image." "Now I'll never be able to have dinner at your house!" "I called her." "My mom." "I spoke to her." "You think I should go see her?" "Only if you need to." "With no expectations on who or how she'll be." "I don't want you to get hurt." "Maybe I'll learn something." "Maybe when she sees me she'll want to know about me." "Maybe you need to tell her that you are a... wonderful, talented, smart black man that forgives her." "I know it'll help you whether it changes her or not." "Duke, that's who that was." "And they are talking of a full ride." "All I have to do is stay healthy and keep putting the ball in the hoop." "That's good baby." "Congratulations." "Good?" "It's freaking awesome." "That's the place to be." "Their team is always in the final four." "We're talking about national TV just to see your man shoot the rock." "Glenn Carlin, nothing but net, the crowd goes wild... ahhhh!" "Hey baby, I mean." "Aren't you happy?" "This isn't what you wanted?" "For us, for me?" "Of course I'm happy for you." "It's just..." "Now I have to start thinking of what it's gonna be like without you." "Without me?" "Long distance relationships are really hard." "I mean, come on, you didn't keep a girlfriend in Ohio when you moved here?" "Right." " Maybe you can come with me." " I would love that." "But I don't know about moving out there just to be with you." "Unless we are married." "Married?" "I think I should probably just be focusing on playing ball and school right now." "I would never pressure you, I mean, this is an opportunity of a lifetime." "I just think we should be honest on how this is gonna affect us." "If there is an "us"." "Hey, we don't have to figure this out today" "Why don't you drive me home and we'll celebrate?" "My mom's out of the house." "I wish my parents weren't acting like complete freaks." "Suspicious, controlling." "I wish I didn't care." "I have a lot of experience is that area." "It's not you, it's totally them." "Parents are not rational people." "Something happens when you get older." "I think it's hormones." "hey focus on you so much so they don't have to focus on themselves and all their crap." "Thanks." "I have to go." "Hey, next time you get polluted, you need to let someone else drive." " You scared me, man." " But I'm still here." "Black eye, ain't nothing going to stop me, baby." "You must be high on your meds." "We'll catch you later." " Take it easy, Boz." " Stay up, Clay, player." "That brother has to learn to think." "Just cause he lives now he thinks he's invincible." "He Sean, I need to borrow your car." "I know you just got it, I promise I'll be careful." " Cool, just don't wreck my ride." " Thanks." " You're not gonna ask me why?" " You're gonna go see your mom." "What do you think?" "It's not about what I think." "It's what you think." "See, you're looking for something, maybe you will find it in that woman." "Thanks, man." "I just need some time, okay?" "I need some distance." "I think we ought to the kids to tell them what's going on." "Okay." "Here are the club sodas." "I'll just talk to myself." "Maybe meet 2 new girls to get messed up in the head with." "What is up with you, Ashley?" "Look, sometimes you're pulling me close to you." "And then I try to make a step towards you and you close up and move away." "Exactly." "Can you give us a minute?" "Sure." "I'll be right over here if either one of you guys decide to straighten up." "Cute." "Do you want that life?" "Stupid little comment about what you are and how you feel?" "So I learned to laugh most things off, cause it hurts too much to do anything else." "You know what?" "I can't just be your friend, Ashley." "It has to be more than that or I'm out of your life." "I need to figure out mine." "What do I do about Spencer?" "Don't ask me, I'm the only one in the school not hooking up." "Yeah but you alone, this gives you a certain clarity." "What do I do?" "Do you wanna be with her?" "I don't know." "What if I scare her away?" "I think you're the one who's afraid." " No." " Yes." "I know from experience that you're the one that does the heartbreaking." "Maybe..." "Maybe you're afraid that Spencer is the one that's gonna break yours." "What are you thinking?" "That you'd make a great girl." "You sucked today, Carlin." "You aren't at Duke yet, alright?" "We still got games to win and a whole season next year, so don't blow it" "Thanks man, it's just a bad day." "Yeah, I had one of those the day you showed up." "Funny." "But I mean, you still have college opportunity, right?" "Yeah I mean, I'm not too worried." "Although I'm not gonna lie, it was a lot better before you got here." "And I was better." "My life was a lot better before I got here too." "Not possible." "You got game, you got a hot girl." "You're living a dream." " Yeah, about the girl." " Yeah I know, she's a handful." "You know, when you two were together." "Did she ever pressure you?" "To play better, treat her better, cement the relationship." "All the time." "That's part of what makes her so... hot." "With all due respect to a lady." "Hello." "Are you Mrs. Garrison?" "Yeah, yeah, Cecily." " Are you Clay?" " Yes." "I'm Clay Carlin and I think I'm your son." "Sit down." "So, tell me about yourself." "Well, I'm a junior in high school." "Actually I love school, I'm doing very well." "I live in California with my adopting parents." "I have a brother and a sister." "Whole family." "How did you end up in Nevada?" "Well, I needed to leave my life in Cincinnati." "You know?" "Too many memories." "Too many people looking down on me." "So I left school and I started working my way West." "I liked the weather here, so I stayed." "You wanna ask me something?" "Yes." "How could you just give up your son?" "What do you want?" "I was fifteen." "Fifteen." "I couldn't raise a child." "That's it?" " Did you even tried to figure it out?" " What did you come here expecting to find?" "You know what?" "I just thought I'd find some missing piece to the puzzle." "Well you did, okay?" "I'm sorry if it's not the piece that you wanted to find." " Yeah, this was a waste of time." " Well it's not for me." "Because I got to meet my son." "And I know I made the right decision." "For you." "For you." "It was right for you." "Over here, over here." "Watch it man." "I want you and mom to be okay." "I know you do." "So do I." "But your mom and I might need to take a little break from each other." " Get things back on track." " You mean splitting up?" "How does that get things back on track?" "Maybe we'll remember why we get together in the first place." "We'll figure it out." "What about you?" "You're okay?" "I don't know." "Spencer." "You're my daughter." "I love you so very very much, no matter who you are." "Are you expecting someone?" "Hi." " It's good to see you, Ashley." " Nice to see you too, Mr. C." "Send him to X-ray and then in ER3." "Glenn, can you move your knee at all?" "Oh God it hurts." "I can't even bend it." "Mom, will I be able to play again?" "Honey, don't worry about that." "Let's just getting you fix up, okay?" "So?" "So..." "I'm sorry." "I'm sorry for the "come here, go away" trip I've been putting you through." "Okay." "Why would you do that?" "Because I want you." "And I don't wanna hurt you." "I can take care of myself." "And with some left over to take care of you." "Come to my place tonight." "Mom's gonna be in the Costa for a couple of days." "Okay."
