"You don't realize you've done it until it's too late." "Like music." "I didn't suddenly stop." "I started playing less and less." "Until I wasn't playing anymore." "And it also just didn't fit with... everything." "Evan-everything?" "Did you ever give up on something big?" "Besides life, singing, school, pleasing my parents, love?" "No, no, no." "I have no idea what you're talking about." "So this is how it goes." "It's Christmas at my mother's," "New Years Eve at Alyssa's, and a very traditional Thanksgiving at Keely's." "Personally, I'd rather staple my tits to a burning building than have Christmas or Thanksgiving at Keely's." " You know what?" " Hm?" "Me, too." "# We've been waiting for the sun" "# We've been waiting for the sun to come out and play" "# All these rainy days..." " Honey, that's Jill's date." " Right." "Okay." "A toast to friends..." "old, new..." "Reluctantly invited." "My guest." "Not reluctant." "Like..." "I was saying... to friends, old and new, but most of all, to Kate." "Who's the bravest, toughest, coolest, chick I know." " Thank you." " To Kate." "To Kate." "Happy Thanksgiving." "# We are waiting on a dream" "# So we go to sleep" "# But nothing happens when..." "# We wait too long..." "Boy, you ain't got no game." "Go ask her to dance." "Would you care to dance?" "Sure." "It's Brazilian." "You ever wish you weren't just watching moments like this?" "Oh, I'm not just watching." "I feel it." "Feel life more than I ever felt it before." "How come you never ask me to translate for Kate?" "I read lips." " Nice try." " It's true." " What's that mean?" " Uh, my older brother is deaf." " You just said something pervy." " No, I didn't." "What did you say?" "Come on." "I said... maybe one day you'll stop punishing me for liking you as much as I do." "I should start cleaning up." "Surprise." "# Happy Thanksgiving to you..." "What are you doing here?" " You know why I'm here." " You're drunk." " Just a little bit." " I don't wanna do this anymore." "You know, I think you say that because you think it makes the sex hotter." "Which it does." "Go home, now, to your wife." "Come on." "Now." "To your wife." "Come on." "I want you." "I know you want me." "Oh, come on." "I miss you." "You can have... everything." "Everything." "Just don't let me end up like that." "Please." "I can't die in a hospital, strapped to a machine." "I'm not condoning what he did." "It was wrong." "But for God's sake, it's time to forgive him." "Men cheat." "It happens." "But she didn't have to blow up his whole life." "I mean, blow up all our lives." "So, why'd you want me to come here?" "You want me to apologize for her inconveniencing you?" "Okay, you clearly don't like me very much." " Which is fine because I don't really like you either." " Alyssa..." " So are you in the will yet?" " Alyssa!" "She can't expect to come out of nowhere and for people not to question her intentions." " Wait." " I mean, we were her friends first." "Alyssa, shut up." "Look, just tell her that we love her." "And that we miss her." "And that we're here." "You will not believe what I..." " Who's this?" " Rachel." "I just thought maybe we could give you a break some time." "Okay." " So you don't cook or clean?" " Yes, absolutely..." " Any experience with ALS?" " Not specifically..." " She's worked with disabled people." " But not ALS?" " No." " We'll be in touch." "We'll be in touch." " Thank you." " Thank you." "I'm sorry I didn't discuss it with you." " I get it." " It's not to take over." " No, I get it." "Actually, I don't get it." " What's going on?" " You have school... your music." "I'm worried I'm asking too much." "Have you ever heard me complain?" "Have you?" "I'm fine." "Hey." "Hi." "So I've uh..." "I've been thinking about us a lot." "And I could have been more patient." "You know, I thought that I was at the time, but I really wasn't." "And I'm sure there's 9,000 other things that I could've done better, too." "But..." "You should know that it wasn't it wasn't just sex." "Okay." "It was..." "I just needed..." "I just needed to touch someone without hurting 'em, that's all." "But I just want you to know that I'm sorry." "I'm sorry." "Do you remember..." "when we re-met after UT?" " Yeah." "At your concert, yeah." " And afterwards, we went to 300 Houston and drank Martinis." "Yeah." "That night, I could see in your eyes that you didn't see me for who I was." " Kate, that's not..." " But then again I wanted to be the woman you saw." "So... it wasn't just you." "We did this." "You want me to go up and down or around and around?" " Hey." " Hey." "Brace yourself." "Your parents are here." " What the hell?" " They're outside." "They came by the apartment and..." "Merry Christmas." "Yeah." " I didn't know you were coming." " We left you five messages." " Didn't you check them?" " Of course, Mom." "Come on in." "Dad." "Wanna cut the evening short?" "I can make a pass at your mom." "This is Kate." "Merry Christmas." "I'm Elizabeth..." " ... and this is Bruce." " Nice to meet you." "Would you like to stay for dinner?" "She wants to know if you want to stay for dinner?" "Oh... thank you." "I'm sure I can whip something up." "I got it." "Oh, that's right." "I cook now, Mom." "Lasagna's in the oven." "So you, are you actually living here now?" "Your wife sounds like Bec." "What's in the back?" "Your wife's voice sounds like Bec." "One..." "One more time." "When your father and I didn't hear from you, for a couple of weeks... or get a tuition bill for a couple of months..." " Can we talk about this another time?" " ..." "I decided to finally call the college." " I was gonna call you." " Oh, really?" "When were you gonna call me, and let me know that you had decided to drop out?" "No." "Leave it." "I'm just taking some time off, Rebecca, you spend more time taking time off, than you do in college." "What are you doing here?" "If you're actually asking me a question," "I'd be happy to answer it." "But if this is just another one of your ways to put me down, by all means..." "Answer it." "I'm doing something... positive." "Something good." "I'm helping another human being." "No, Rebecca, my darling, you're not." "What you are doing is exactly what you've done your entire life." "You're focusing all of your energy, all of your time, on something that is doomed to fail." "That poor, poor woman out there is going to die." "And when she is gone, where does that leave you?" "With no future, no degree, and no means of supporting yourself." "Nothing!" "Merry Christmas to you, too, Mom." "Come back in here, Rebecca." "I am not done talking to you." " Rebecca, you come back in here." " Shit." "Why didn't you tell me you dropped out?" "Please, Kate, I've already had, and lost this fight once today." "Your mother is right." "My mother has never been right about anything in my entire life." " I am going to die." " With that attitude." "It's not an attitude, Bec." "It's a fact." "There are experimental drugs." " If your doctor would..." " I want you to move out." "That's ridiculous." " Who'll take care of you?" " I'll call my mother." "Your mother who lives an hour away, who hasn't been here to visit you once since I've been here?" "I'm not gonna let someone else ruin their life because of my illness." "I didn't tell you about school because I..." "Like you didn't tell me about having an affair with a married professor." "You've been damning Evan." "What's the difference between you and Cynthia?" "I'm dying and his wife isn't?" "Fuck you." "Fuck you." "You wanna die, and you know I won't let you, and that's what this is about." "I'm outta here." "Look at you." "Oh, my family's home." "Hi, Gwen." "Oh, darlin'." "You know, I always preferred your hair up." "I'm gonna send my hairdresser over in a little while." "Okay?" "It'll give you such confidence." "Now, how come y'all haven't opened your presents?" "What in the world is going on here?" "Here, Gwen, let me help." "Oh, here, I got you something special." "Merry Christmas, darlin'." "# Slippin' and a slidin' on a frozen pond" "# All the snow has turned to ice..." "And you remember Evan?" "Hi." " Enjoy the bar." " Sure." "I've got somebody for you to meet." "There's the belle of the ball, and my favorite niece." "First things first." "Inoculation." "I've done too many of these Christmas parties without you." "Having fun yet?" "Over the moon." "# Christmas with the one..." "# Christmas with the one that I love..." ""I told you, it was a 'Yankee doodle dandy'. "" "Christmas cheer." "Bec." "Hi." "Hi." "Are you playing tonight?" "Not feeling very musical." "How's Kate?" "I wouldn't know." "She kinda fired me." "Or broke up with me." "I'm not really sure which." "Turns out it's no different than breaking up with a guy." "You still torture yourself listening to their music and going to their weird places." "You never called me back." "It's complicated." "It's complicated." "Um... out of curiosity, if um..." "If I was to be dumb enough to ask you out on a date... would I stand a chance?" "I'm just not..." "Alright, okay." "Um, say hi to Kate... or..." "I'm sorry about you getting fired." "Um, she was cool." "Wil!" "I'm thinking one day I might come to my senses, so don't lose my number." "Okay?" "Hello?" "# Climb" "# Is all we know" "Hey." "I'm here to see Kate."

"I'm sorry to hear about that." "I thought Kate should know." "It didn't want to tell her on the phone." "Yeah, of course." "Will you tell her about Marilyn?" "I'm not sure that's the best idea right now." "This is a copy of the letter that Marilyn's husband sent all of her friends when she died." "Kate'll wanna hear it." "# I'm growing like the quickening hues" "# I..." "# I'm telling darkness from lines on you..." ""Marilyn called herself the black Lou Gehrig." "Most of you know what that means."

"" "He played in a record 2,130 straight games, over 17 seasons, until ALS forced him to retire." ""He bid farewell to his fans and teammates by saying," "'I consider myself the luckiest man on the face of the earth. '" "What he meant was that although adversity had weakened his body, it had strengthened his connection to those around him." "Sound like anyone you know?"" "In Marilyn's final years, she developed bonds with more people than I can count." "We were married... 44 wonderful years." ""But we were never closer than we were during those final four." "So pardon me for saying that I too feel like the luckiest man on the face of the earth. "" ""In the event I am not capable of giving consent," "I designate and appoint the person listed as my attorney-in-fact for all healthcare decisions. "" "Why the hell didn't you say no?"

" Did you know about this?" " Look, I just got off the phone with a judge, and he said that whenever a patient's health takes a turn for the worse, changes like this, last-minute changes, don't usually hold up." " Then it's settled." " No, it's not settled." "It's not what Kate wants." "Legally, yes, you're right." "No, she goes on a ventilator now." "Evan?" "Look, I'm sorry, Gwen." "I know that you're upset, but we have to honor what she wants to do." "We have to honor what she wants to do." "You heard what the doctor said, honey." "If she don't do this now, we may not see her tomorrow." "I know." "I know." "I know." " When did she come in?" " Earlier tonight." "Did they ventilate her?" "She didn't want that." "Not yet." "They wanna talk to you first." "Alright." "She left it up to you." "Me?" "What did you do?" "What've you done?" "I told the doctor..." "she wants to go home." "And you'll put her on a ventilator?" " That's not what she wants." " Don't you tell me what my daughter wants." "How dare you?" "She is my daughter." "Ma'am..." "Please... don't do this." "Don't take her from us."
