"I don't know." "Maybe I wanted herto love me." "Is that something you still want?" "I bought a gun." "That's not uncommonfor attack victims." "It gives them a feelingof control." "Unless you're having thoughtsof hurting your mother." "No." "I mean,I'm not crazy." "But it occurs to me that." "it wouldn't bother meif she were dead." "And that can't be healthy,right?" "To feel likeif your mother was dead,you would't miss her,that you might be betterfor it." "And I just don't knowhow it got to this." "Maybe you should ask your motherthat question." "Antwon came to see me today,and he said that deb broke up with him." "He's pretty upset." "Good." "He shouldn't have beensleeping with my mom." "Said theanwho slept with my sister."

"Your nanny deb is also my mom." "Yeah.But I let you kiss my mom." "Eat your soup." "As you all know,tonight's basketball gameis dedicated to quentin, and I think it would be great if you could all be there,so no homework." "But don't worry.We'll make itup next week,though.I promise." "Sam.stick around.I want to talk to you." "Um.I read your paperthat you wrote on quentin." "It was very good,and I think you should spendsome more time writing." "and maybe a little less timeshoplifting." "I don't knowwhat you're talking about." "Relax." "One of my best friends,brooke,owns clothes over bros,and she's not gonnapress charges." "Actually,she sent you a gift." "You know,I'm not homeless,okay?" "Tell your friendl don't need her charity." "Sam.I don't knowwhat you're going through." "I don't know anythingabout your life." "But if you want to talk,I am here to listen." "Great." "why don't you guyshead to the locker room?" "Come on.We got a game tonight." "Hey,nate,can we talk?" "Hey,grandpa." "Look,I'm hereto support the team,skills." "I don't really have anythingto say to you." "Then don'T.Just listen." "I know me and deb together sounds likesome freaky porn thing,and maybe it startedthat way." "This isn't helping." "But the thing is." "Your mom makes me happy." "And I thinkI make her happy,too." "I can't believe we're evenhaving this conversation." "Look,neither one of uswants to do anything that's gonna mess things upfor you." "It's a little latefor that." "Okay,you're right." "I should have told you abouteverything from the beginning." "But I reallycare for her,nate." "Look,I'll just leave the ballin your court." "all right,look,I know you don't feel muchlike playing basketball tonight." "And I get it." "When I was in high school,someone close to mewas taken away." "And I-I couldn't understand how a gamecould matter anymore." "But my coach was a wise man, and he told me that basketballwas more than just a game," "that it had the powerto heal me if I let it." "he was right." "now there's someone elseI'd like you to hear from." "Hi,guys." "This last weekhas been hard on all of us." "But what gets me through is trying to rememberthe happy times with quentin." "And lord knows that boywas never happier than when he was holdinga basketball." "Now,coach says that,um,some of you might be feelinga little guilty about playing tonight." "Well,let me tell youone thing that I know." "Quentin would want youto play tonight." "Play your hearts out." "And if you don'T." "well,andre here " " I think he's gonna go outand play for you." "Right,baby?" "And one more thing." "Don't feel like you're moving onwithout quentin because he's gonna be with youon that court." "I'm sure of that." "So am I." "And he's gonna be right here right by your heart." "So.who wants to carry him outonto that court?" "every day,we facethe same truth,that our time here is short." "And to honor the fallen,we must liveour own lives well." "We must take the high roadwhen we can and allow our common loss to bring us together." "I think that's the way Q.Would have wanted it." "And while tonight we miss our fallen teammate." "friend." "loved one." "we commemorate him for all time." "No raven will ever wear the number 44 again." "And for as longas this gym stands,quentin fields." "will be here with us." "No one can take his placeon this team." "And no one." "can take his placein our hearts." "moment silence for Number 44,quentin fields." "Hi,chester.Long time,no see." "I just need." "a few of jamie's thingsfor our little road trip,just enoughto make him comfortable." "These peopleare so lost without me." "It's a good thingyou can't talk,chester." "Otherwise,you'd be my dinner tonight." "Mmm.Tasty." "Hello,victoria." "What are you doingin new york?" "♪♪♪♪♪♪" "Let's go.Bring it in."

"What -- what happenedto your eyes?" "As if you don'talready know." "All I know is that my daughtershows up at my doorstep with a gun." "All I know is my motherhad me attacked in my store." "Oh,my god.Brooke." "are you sayingit wasn't you?" "Did you go to the police?" "Does anyone elseknow about this?" "Don't worry." "You've trained me very well." "I put the company first." "It's just the publicity." "This from the woman who saidshe could spin it favorably if I had a drug problem." "I want you to answermy question." "You want an answer?" "Here's one." "I would neverphysically harm you." "Well,maybe you didn'tmean to." "It was late.You thought millicentwould be there.You hate her." "You are so paranoid --and wrong." "Someone died last week." "And I wasn't close to him,but my friends were,and yet,in the midstof all their grief,I felt nothing." "I just felt cold." "And I realized I'm turninginto the one person I do not want to become." "I'm turning into you." "What do you want meto say,brooke?" "That I was a failureas a mother?" "You got everythingyou wanted." "Except your love." "When I was your age,I dreamed of havinga clothing line,of having a business." "Of all the thingsyou have." "But I stupidly fell in love." "And one morning,your father and igot a little surprise." "I told himI didn't want kids." "It was never the plan." "But he wanted a sonmore than anything." "And as soon as I got fat,he had an excuse to jump intoany bed he wanted." "And when we hadour little baby girl,I made sure I would neverbe pregnant again." "If I couldn't have my dream,your fathercouldn't have his,either." "I probably took it out on youa little too much along the way,but you know what?" "You should be thanking mefor giving you life.Do you understand that?" "I do thank you." "Because now I knowit wasn't my fault." "It was never my fault." "I'm calling the lawyerstomorrow,and I'm divesting my interestsin clothes over bros -- the magazine,the line." "You can have everything." "Congratulations,victoria." "Now you have a companyand no daughter." "You got your dream." "Years from now,the record bookswill show that." "the ravens lost to the wildcatson this night." "But here's somethingthat those records won't show,something that." "no one in that gymwill ever forget." "that the four-man ravens made the wildcats fight and scratch and claw for every single secondof that win." "And in doing so,they showed that a team will always be more importantthan statistics." "When your grandkids ask you about this game,you tell them that you played hard." "for quentin fields." "that you stood tall." "and you did itto honor your friend." "You shouldbe proud of yourselves,men." "I know I'm proud of you." "Coach." "we want to play with fourthe rest of the season." "That's gonna be hardon all of you." "We want to do it for Q." "He's our fifth." "it's been an honorcoaching you guys." "so,are you sure you don'twant to stay and meet lucas?" "Another time." "I think I'm gonna stay aroundfor a little while,do some recording." "Oh.It just so happensI have an empty studio." "Really?" "I thought you said you didn'thave anything left worth saying." "Maybe one more thing." "Okay,mick." "When mia said that there wassomebody asking about me who knew ellie." "I thought maybe.you were my father." "That would be something,wouldn't it?" "I'll see you later." " where to?" " The airport." "I'm going home to my family." "see you soon,baby." "Mom.I want youto move back in." "Jamie's been througha lot lately." "He needs his nanny deb." "Thank you." "He really makes you happy?" "He does." "But you've had to sacrificeso much for me over the years,nathan." "I just don't want to see it." "Okay,I don't want to hear about it." "But whatever you want." "hey hello?" "Yeah,this is haley." "Really?" "Uh,okay.Yeah.Thank you for calling." "You too." "What's wrong?" "Uh.that was dan's doctor." "Apparently,they had a heart for him and he neveranswered their call." "Then he really hasgone off to die." "Hey,nate." "I know Q.Was working with youto get your game back." "What were you working on?" "he always saidI couldn't go left." "So maybe that'swhere we start."
