Every time we go out, it's always something with you!
Always! Get out!
Fine. I don't want to be with you, anyway.
- Good! Get out, then! - Fine, I will!
Go back to your trash home! Get out!
You're... you're just a loser.
Hey!
Get the hell out of my car.
Mama! Mama!
Mama, I know you hear me!
Mama, open this damn door!
It's me, Mama!
Bonnie.
- Bonnie? - Hmm?
Mm.
What time is it?
I don't know.
Why don't you go back to bed, baby, okay?
She's out there.
Who?
My mama.
- Where? - At Grandma's.
Okay. All right. I'm up.
- Can we tell her? - No, no.
I want you to go to bed, okay?
- You sure? - Yeah. Go on.
Night.
Mama, I know you're in there!
Mama, open up the door!
Mama! Mama!
Mama, I know you hear me!
Mama, open this damn door!
I got to pee, Mama!
Shelby.
- What the hell are you doing? - What?
I had to go, and she wouldn't open the door!
So you're just gonna piss on the ground like an animal?
When a lady has to go, a lady has to go.
- A lady, huh? - Oh, don't you start, too.
What happened to your face?
Damn loser.
Who, Ray?
Bonnie, come on. You're blowing my high.
So you're gonna admit that you're high?
Well, don't you... don't you say shit to me.
Little Miss Perfect. Mama, Mama!
Open this damn door, Mama!
- Shelby, what are you doing? - Hey, she hears me.
- She hears me! She does. - What are you doing?
- She's asleep, Shelby. - But I need to talk to her.
Why?
She hasn't got no money for you.
Well, did I say I wanted money?
Well, then why else are you here?
I can't go home.
Why?
Is it because Ray's hitting you?
Ray kicked me out of the house.
What? I... I didn't hear what you said.
Ray kicked me out, okay?
It was my fault.
It's your fault, huh?
It's always your fault. You know, I can't do this anymore.
Bonnie, no. Please. Please.
- Look, I'm so sorry. - Please don't cry right now.
Bonnie... Look, I am, okay?
- All right. Okay. - Look, I can't do a damn thing right.
- All right. No, no. Come here, come here. - And I just need to stay for a little while.
Come here, come here, come here, come here.
- Bonnie, I don't got nowhere to go. - Okay. All right. All right. I know.
- I ain't got nowhere to go. - Okay. All right. Listen.
You can stay with me,
but you got to behave this time, all right?
- I will. I will. I promise. Yeah. - You will?
I'm serious.
I will. But why... why won't she talk to me?
I want... I want you to look at me, okay?
Look at me, please.
- Shelby. - Yeah, okay, what?
If you come in my house,
I don't want you talking to Mac.
- Okay. - Promise me?
Yes. Yes, I do.
- Let's go. - I'm tired.
It's okay.
All right.
Oh, no.
I don't even know how I got here, really.
- It's okay. - I think I walked.
It's okay.
Hey.
It's okay.
The kids are asleep. Okay?
- Okay. - Just watch your step.
- Hey, Mac. - Shh, shh.
- Can't I just hug him? Can't I hug him? - No. No. No. That's not happening.
I want you to sit down. Look at me right now.
- Hey, Mac. - Listen to me. Shelby, look at me.
You're gonna stay the night tonight.
You're gonna leave tomorrow morning, all right?
- I don't want you talking to Mac. - Okay.
Promise me?
- You promise me that? - But he looks like he wants
- to talk to me, though. - I know. Okay.
Are you sure?
Lay down. Scoot up. Scoot up.
- Okay. - Just lie down.
Are you sure?
Okay.
- I'm tired. - I know, honey.
Just close your eyes and just try and sleep, okay?
Go on. Go to bed.
It's all right.
Night.
- Hi, Anna. - Hi.
Come on in.
- Come on. - Thank you. Is Dax here?
Uh, yeah. Yeah. Uh, Dax!
- Anna. - Hi.
Hi.
Can I talk to you for a second?
Yeah. Come on in.
- Hey, can you give us a minute? - Yeah.
What's going on? We both know.
- Valerie. - I've got nothing to say to you.
Val.
- She shouldn't be here. - Let's hear her out.
- I told you what she said. - I know that.
I want to hear her out.
- Fine. Then I'm going home. - No, you're not.
I don't want to be a part of this.
We already are whether you want to be or not.
Now stop it and listen.
- Valerie told me... - Valerie, I told you not to tell anyone.
You don't have the right to ask me
- to keep that kind of secret. - It's me. It's okay.
Anna, I need you to tell me the truth.
- I don't want to know the whole story. - Valerie, stop it!
Anna...
Are you having an affair with the president?
Okay, you can't tell me.
Then... what happened to him? Did you...
- did you do something to him? - I didn't do anything to him.
Then why is the news saying he's suffering from the flu?
He was fine earlier.
Anna.
Answer him.
- I don't know. - Tell me everything.
- I can't. - Anna...
I can't.
Okay.
No. Not okay.
Dax, do you know that the Secret Service
and the press are gonna be all over us
- when they find out about this? - Val...
Yeah, Dax, they will. Because we know her,
- our careers are ruined. - No, they won't.
Really?
Well, why don't you ask anybody who's ever slept
with the president what their lives were like
after their affair?
Valerie, calm down.
How can I? This girl is ruining our lives, Dax.
You know what? I'm out of here.
This was so selfish and so wrong!
We were your friends!
We were.
Valerie!
She's right, you know.
I didn't expect for any of this to happen.
No.
You never do when you're in it.
Dax, I have no money,
and...
my apartment... I just...
I can't go back to it, so I just...
I just need a place to stay for a few nights.
Anna.
Please.
- Dax? - Hey...
Yeah?
I'm sorry.
Look, I can't get involved in this.
What happened to your apartment?
I just don't have it anymore.
Why not?
Listen, I just need your help.
Then you need to call your parents.
- I can't. - Anna, your father is an attorney
and your mother is a college professor at Harvard.
You need to call them. They called and got you that job.
They can help.
Uh, we don't...
You know, we don't come from money.
People can't help us.
No, you need to call them.
- I can't. - Why not?
It's complicated.
That's just another way of saying you can't tell me.
I just need a place for one night, Dax.
- You can crash on the sofa. - No.
We... we just... we can't get involved with this.
I'm sorry. You need to call your parents.
I'm sorry.
Well, then...
Can you loan me some money so I can get home?
What are you doing?
Here.
- That's all the money we have. - Victor!
You know, you need to go.
Thank you.
What the hell you doing here?
Why do you care?
Well, I just want to know how deep to hide my wallet.
I ain't gonna steal nothing from you.
As if you haven't before.
J.B.
I don't want to talk to you.
Then leave.
Did you hear me?
- I can't. - Why not?
Ray kicked me out of the house, okay?
- You happy? - That's my boy.
Ass...
Well, what'd you do this time, huh?
You don't see my face?
Yeah. What did you do?
Nothing worth him giving me this shiner.
Who you screwing now, huh, Shelby? I mean,
is it cousin Frankie?
Milton?
- Who was it? - Nobody.
Yeah. As if you haven't before.
- Can I go to sleep, please? - Well, I'm talking to you.
Well, I don't want to talk to you.
Then get the hell out of my house.
Yeah, this is Bonnie's house.
- I pay the rent. - Oh, yeah? This month?
Well, what happens when you want to go off again
and go do god knows what?
Who pays for it then?
- You don't know nothing. - Oh.
I know you only come around here
when one of your whores in Tanner
- kicks you out of the house. - Get out.
I'm sorry.
- No, you ain't. - Yes, I am. I'm just...
I'm not feeling well.
Yeah, I'll bet.
- How you been? - No, don't even, Shelby.
- What? - I ain't giving you no money.
I ain't gonna ask for no money.
- Can I get one of them smokes? - No.
Come on, J.B. Don't be like that.
Yeah, y... you need to get yourself together, girl.
All right? Start helping out me and your sister.
- I know. - Your son is in that room,
and we've been taking care of him, and it just ain't right,
- you putting all this on Bonnie. - I know.
I'm working on something, okay? Something big.
Yeah, you... you always working on something.
This is huge. It's huge. You'll see.
You gonna wind up right back in county jail.
- No, not this time. - Not this time.
Go to sleep.
Hey. Hey, wait.
What the hell you doing?
You know she ain't no freak like me.
You know what I can do, J.B.
Huh?
I am with your sister, girl.
Well, she don't have to know.
Hmm?
What do you want in return?
Oh, I know you got some somewhere.
Oxy, heroin.
Something.
I'm clean.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, me, too.
Get out.
- Come on, J.B. I need some... - I said...
I said move, Shelby.
You want it, huh?
Yeah, it looks like you want it.
Shelby...
Get... Stop it.
Jesse.
Hey!
- Daddy, what the hell? - What did you do to your mom?!
- I didn't do nothing to her! - Where is she?!
- How did you get this?! - Where is she?!
- Let it go! - Where is your mom?
Dad, let it go!
I'm gonna kill you, Jesse!
I'm Brody, Daddy! Let it go!
I'm Brody.
- Brody? - Yeah.
Let it go.
Brody.
Oh.
Oh, my god.
What is going on with me?
I don't... I don't remember.
I know, but you're okay.
You've got... you've got to help me, son.
- I'm trying to, Daddy. - Please.
Please help me.
- I am. - No. No, I... I...
I don't know you.
I don't know where I am.
It's okay, Daddy.
No. You have to help me.
- I am. - Help me, Brody.
- Daddy, I am. - Please.
- Daddy, what are you doing? - No, I want to.
Dad. Stop it.
- Pull it. - Stop.
I'm in my right mind.
I can't go on living like this.
I can't be a burden to you.
- Not to you. - It's fine.
God, your mom...
- I hated her. - No, you didn't.
Yes, I did.
In the end, she was sick all the time.
But you were right there.
And I hated it.
And I gave her all her pills.
All of them.
Daddy...
I couldn't see her suffer like that.
- Daddy, what did you do? - Please.
Don't let me suffer like this.
Daddy, what did you do?
I... I gave her all her pills.
They were orange.
With yellow pigtails.
- You tell me what you did. - Don't you touch me, Jesse.
- Daddy. - Where is your brother?
Did you bring him in from the field?
Daddy...
You come back to me and you...
You tell me what you did.
What did you do?
♪ Be out until you call ♪
♪ in the field ♪
Get out.
Can't I just get one hit?
Then I'll go back in the house.
I said get out of my damn truck, Shelby.
- Give me one toke. - Shelby.
Stop it, Shelby.
Excuse me.
- Could I possibly use your phone? - Uh...
Please.
Not gonna run away with it, are you?
No.
- Make it quick. - I will.
Hey, this is Brody. Please leave a message.
- Thank you. - You're welcome.
Hey.
- Hi. - You still shy?
Excuse me?
You were shy last night when I met you.
Oh. T... that's right.
I'm John.
Um, Anna.
Yeah, I remember. Um, where you headed?
I don't know.
Are you okay?
I will be. I will be.
Oh, you need a drink. Let me buy you a drink.
- Come on. - Could I have two?
Absolutely. Um, what are you drinking?
- Bourbon. - Bourbon. Lady's a drinker.
You know, can you make them a double?
Sorry. Last call.
- Oh, come on, man. - Sorry.
- Pfft, look at her. - Sorry.
Great.
Just great, man. Um...
I'm sorry. It's last call.
It's probably for the best.
Look, I... I live a few blocks away.
We can go there.
I have bourbon.
No.
I'm a nice guy. I promise.
Yeah, and you're a little drunk.
J... just only a little.
No, but thank you.
Okay, um...
Maybe next time?
Yeah. Maybe next time.
_
Mama, what's up?
I can't breathe!
Is your oxygen on?
I fell of the bed, and I can't get it.
All right, Mama. I'm gonna come get it for you, okay?
- Hurry. - Oh. Okay.
Okay.
Good night, Anna.
John...
Did you say your place was close?
Come on.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah, get it. Work for it, girl.
Uh-huh, uh-huh.
- So, you work at the White House. - How do you know that?
Your friends.
Oh. That's right.
What do you do there?
Can we not talk about my job?
Yeah. Okay.
You want to go easy on that?
I'm just trying to slow my mind.
You have a lot on your mind?
Yeah. Don't we all in this city?
Yeah. Some more than others.
Yeah, I guess you're right.
How's the president?
What?
How... like, how is he?
Or can you not talk about that kind of thing?
- You know, I should go. - Hey, no, look... Look, I'm sorry.
Okay, look. We won't... we won't talk about your job.
I'm sorry.
I just... I can't talk about the president.
Look, I... I totally get it, okay?
I just saw he had the flu on the news,
and that's all I meant by that.
Okay? We will not talk about him.
Okay. Thank you.
Sure.
You do not seem like that kind of girl.
You have no idea what kind of girl I am.
Are you a working girl?
Did you just call me a whore?
Are you?
No!
Oh, that's good 'cause I only have like 100 bucks on me.
- I have to leave. This is... - No, hey, look. No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, okay? Look. It's... it's getting late.
- Just please stay. - No, I should go.
No, no. You should stay. Look, Anna, I won't bother you.
Okay? Scout's honor.
All right? Look, you can stay on the sofa.
I'll be a total gentleman.
My mom would be so proud if I let a beautiful woman
stay on my couch and I didn't try to make a move on her.
You promise?
That I won't make a move?
Yeah.
Yeah, I promise.
And I promise you can stay.
Thank you.
Sure.
I'll get you a pillow and a blanket.
- Okay. - Bathroom's right over there.
Probably gonna be up for my morning run, so...
If I wake you, I'm sorry.
Move.
You done?
Get out of my truck.
Where's the stuff?
I don't have anything.
You said you had it.
No, I didn't.
- J.B., you said you had stuff. - I never said that.
Well, then give me some money.
Well, I don't... I don't have any money.
J.B... don't you do this.
Come on. Get...
- Get your whore ass out of my truck. - J.B.
- Now. - No!
- Shelby, damn it. - No! No, I ain't getting out!

and I'm gonna tell Bonnie if you don't give me my money.
You know what?
Get your... get...

Hey. Open... open the damn door!

I ain't gonna put it down. You get off the truck.
Right now.
Okay.
Hey.
Don't... don't you turn that truck on.
Oh, look what I did. I turned the truck on.
What you gonna do, huh?
- What you gonna do about it? - Hey! Shelby!
Bye-bye, bitch.
Don't you do this! Hey!
Damn it, get out of the truck, Shelby!
Hey! Don't you do this!
Come on, Shelby! Shelby!!

Heeeeeeeey!!

God, Shelby!
Bonnie, I need your keys. I need your keys.
- Why? - What do you mean, why?
Where you been?
I w... I was on a run.
You've been out in your truck for a while.
- Yeah. I... I was I was having a... - Shhhhhh!
Quiet.
- Bonnie, I need your keys. - You were with my sister, weren't you?
- No, I... No, I wasn't. - You weren't?
I didn't see her go out to your truck, then?
Look, she... she went out there, but I...
I... you know, I... look, look, I need your car.
- I need to go find my truck. - Okay.
You know what?
You're not getting my car keys, okay?
- Bonnie. Damn it, Bonnie! - Shh! Shut up.
You can call the sheriff.
Look, I... I got to get out there right now, Bonnie.
I don't have time for this. Let's go.
I told you that you can call the sheriff.
- I need these keys, Bonnie. - Don't touch me. Get out of here!
Bonnie, I need those keys.
You gonna make me wake these kids, J.B.? Huh?
What the hell's wrong with you?
You're taking advantage of a drug addict?
You are taking advantage of my sister?
Is that what you're doing?
Because I'll tell you what...
I'm done with you.
I've tried everything. You're never gonna change,
are you, J.B.?
The joke's on me. I want you to get out of here right now.
- Come on. We need to talk about this. - I want you to get out of my house.
- When I get... your sister took my load. - Yeah, she took...
She took both your loads, now, didn't she?
Bonnie, I need your keys.
- Shut up. - Damn it, Bonnie. You give me...
- Get off of me, J.B.! - I need these keys.
- You're not getting my keys! - You don't do it now!
- J.B.! - You let her go.
Give me the keys, Bonnie. Whoa, whoa!
Let her go! You let her go!
Hey, Mac.
Hey. Guys.
It's okay. It's all right. It's okay.
What the hell you gonna do, boy, huh?!
You gonna shoot me?! Do it!
- Get out of here. Get out of here! - Huh?
- Now. - Do it!
Go!
Go.
Yeah.
Hey, hey, hey.
It's all right. Come here, come here.
- She did something, didn't she? - It's okay.
Shh.
It is a very sad day in our country...
- Babe. - As more information becomes available,
- we will bring it to you live. - What? I'm sleeping.
- Get up. - But for now,
- all we know is... - Look.
- At 11:34 last night... - Stop.
- Look. - What, are you serious?
The president had a heart attack.
And we are being told that the vice president
is on his way to the White House as we speak.
As more information comes in, we will be breaking in live.
We are researching the events
of this late-breaking news story.
President Christian did have a flu,
and medics were at the White House.
As more information comes in, we will...
Reports are coming in slowly,
but we will be following this story closely.
I think it's only appropriate
that we reflect on what this truly means.
Yeah. Yeah.
What? Okay.
Yeah, no. I'm getting dressed now.
No.
Okay, I'm turning it on right now.
We are receiving reports
- the president suffered a heart attack. - Yeah, yeah. I'll be right in. Yeah.
Our prayers and our hearts
go out to his family and this nation.
But for now, all that we know is that the vice president
is making his way to the White House.
We're also receiving reports that the last person
to see the president was an aide.
Her name is Annie Belle Hayes.
Reports are sketchy at this point.
The White House has not yet said
why Ms. Hayes was meeting with the president.
The White House doctors had reported
- he was suffering from flu-like symptoms. - Washington Sun.
Deborah, get me Carol now.
- Stay on this channel... - What is it, John?
We're all working on this thing with the president.
Well, the last person to see him is in my house
sleeping on my sofa.
- What? - Yeah.
Don't let her leave. We're sending the cavalry.
This girl's gonna win me the Pulitzer.
This season on "Too Close To Home"...
Are you the backwards whore that fooled an entire staff
of decent hardworking young people
by screwing the president?
- Just get me a ticket home. Please. - Where are you going?
Happy, Alabama.
You hang around the bullshit long enough,
you turn into a warrior.
- Where's your grandma? - Don't go over there.
A lot has changed since you walked out on me.
- Oh, baby. How are you? - Both of you let him do it.
- We shouldn't have done this. - Oh, my god!
- Why did you leave? - Give me more time.
Grow up!
You think you were the only one, Shelby?
Anna, sometimes we hurt the people we love the most.
Hi.
Is Brody seeing anybody?
Nope.
- God help me. - This town is like an island.
It closes you off from the world.
How does it feel
to know that every lie that you've ever told us
is being revealed like this?
- Let her go! - No!
I think I may have to stay here for a while.
I know.
And I'm really scared.
