"I've known him his whole life, so..." "Um..." "Well, drive carefully." "Sarah." "Oh, Julia, I didn't see you." "Here, this is for Owen." "I figured if I came by late that, you know, the odds of my running into Bailey were significantly diminished, so..." "Hey, are you crying?" "Yeah." "What--?" "What happened?" "Everything... is just so screwed up." "Okay, can--?" "Can you be, like, a little more specific?" "Bailey." "He ruined Owen's party." "It was just awful." "My God." "Was he drunk?" "You know, for five minutes yesterday he was himself." "And then he drinks, and he just turns into this... [***]" "God, Sarah." "It's really bad, isn't it?" "Is he still here?" "Yeah, he's passed out." "He was right-- He must have woken up." "Charlie!" "Damn it." "What?" "His jeep is gone." "He's gone." "[SIGHS]" "Hi, Marcus." "Mark." "I was just-- He's not here." "Oh." "Well, is he gonna be back soon?" "He's just out, okay?" "Do you have to know his whole schedule?" "I'll..." "I'll come back later." "Oh, great." "Why don't you come back when it's just him and me so he'll have someone interesting to talk to?" "I didn't mean to... intrude." "Wow." "You do it without even trying." "You must be one of those gifted kids." "No wonder he likes you so much." "[CRYING]" "Oh, God." "Don't." "L-look..." "[SIGHS] ...I'm sorry." "I'm not crying about you, you stupid idiot." "I couldn't care less about you." "It's just my whole family, it's" "They're falling apart, and I" " I don't know what..." "[INHALES SHARPLY]" "What am I supposed to do?" "There's a Tricky Rock Block playing." "Do you wanna come in and watch?" "Hey, is, uh, Julia around?" "Yeah, she's out back." "Hi." "What's the matter?" "Did I do something?" "Yeah, you" " You did." "And I know that you probably think that you" " You didn't." "I know you" " It was probably just another joke or something." "Oh, man, not this again." "God, Julia, there is nothing wrong with joking a little." "I-I know you think that." "And I-I can't convince you that" " That how you are or" " Or how you think, that-- That it's bad." "It's just... for me, I know it is." "And..." "I don't know how to be with someone who thinks that way." "So..." "Hey, wait." "Jule" "No, I-I feel sick, Sam." "When I let the things that you said run around in my head," "I feel ill." "S-so... what?" "Are you ending this?" "'Cause that" " That-- That's insane." "Julia, to just casually end a relationship" "You think this is casual?" "You did so much for me, Sam." "You, like, walked into my life, and you" " You turned it into something better, and that's" "That is an amazing thing to do for someone." "And then, just by being this way, how you are, who you are, y-you took that away." "I think you should go." "This is..." "This is not us here." "This is an argument about a stupid moral or ethical" "I-I don't know, a political thing." "It is nothing." "I just told you that I care about this." "Don't call it nothing." "Julia-- I-I really" "I really think you should go." "[***]" "Sam left?" "Yeah." "I told him to." "Why?" "You mean because of...?" "So is it--?" "Is that it?" "I'm sorry." "[***]" "You know, if there's" " There's something so awful in someone, something you know you can't live with, it should erase all the good things." "Yeah, I know." "It should make it easy to walk away." "[DISHES CLINKING]" "You and I are gonna write notes to all your friends and thank them for the presents, 'cause that's what you do when someone does something nice for you." "Thank you." "Just like that." "[IMITATING MOTOR]" "When did you get back?" "Just." "I dropped them off at the station." "Mom took more pictures." "Dad cried." "The whole routine." "I see what you were saying now about them." "About how they stick their noses in when they don't belong." "[SCOFFS]" "Man, your dad." "Who did he think he was going on about Bailey like that?" "Yeah." "None of his business." "But, um... for the record, I'm sorry, but I think he's right." "[SCOFFS]" "Are you kidding me?" "Grace, he" " He's in college." "He's a freshman." "He's got, like, crappy judgment and all that, but he's not a..." "He's exactly like I was then." "Did you ever hit anyone in your family?" "'Cause he hit you." "Look, all I know is that I've been out of control like that." "I was like that." "He's just-- He's just doing what I did." "JULIA:" "No." "Charlie, he's different." "You drank, a lot, but you were always you." "[SIGHS] [PHONE RINGS]" "[PHONE BEEPS]" "Bailey?" "Okay." "Thanks for calling back." "[PHONE BEEPS OFF]" "It was Callie." "She hasn't seen him." "And his car's not there either." "But, uh, she's gonna have him call us as soon as he gets in." "[***]" "He'll call." "[***]"
