Wait a minute.
hold on.
hitting her?
you think he
actually hits her?
just look at what's
been happening
with her, man.
because, man,
if that's true...
Griffin, we've
been over this.
she comes home from school
acting like they broke up.
I mean,
and her arm's hurt.
she makes up
some bogus story
about being
in a car accident.
listen, I've watched them,
and there's no sign
of anything--
what bogus story?
how do you know
it was bogus?
I went out to look
at the car.
there's no dent
where she said
she got hit.
I've watched them--
a lot--
and all I see is,
is they're...
they're in love.
and maybe that's
what's bothering you,
when you're right about
to sign your divorce papers.
they are? You are?
you think
I like this,
Charlie? Huh?
you think it's fun
for me to look
at you guys
and see that
you're thinking,
"poor stupid
Griffin.
can't get over
Julia."
hey, man.
nobody's saying...
I mean, what if
it's possible?
really, let's just
for argument's sake.
because if it's
at all possible--
Bailey, it's not.
come on. She's, like,
the strongest one
of all of us
and the smartest.
the idea that she would
let someone hit her--
Sarah: It could happen.
it could.
are you serious?
there's this woman
in my victims group,
you know, who I thought
was a counselor.
she was always
on her cell phone
and telling everybody else
what their problem was.
but do you wanna know
why she was there?
she was there because
her secretary--
this guy that she was
having an affair with--
was beating her.
beating her so badly
that she had to miss giving
her acceptance speech
for being head
of her sales division.
the bruises, she, um...
she couldn't
cover them up anymore.
no amount of makeup
would do it.
I'm gonna
talk to her.
Bailey.
no. She can hate me
if she wants to,
but I'm gonna ask her.
she'll probably say no.
ok. You'll see,
right?
just talk to her.
you'll see.

Guess who.
ned.
ok. Not who. What.
my very tardy
boyfriend?
ok. Not what. Why.
a very good reason,
I hope,
for leaving me
alone and bored
for half the morning.
sorry. Correct answer
was Valentine's day,
stupid.
not for 48 hours.
who you calling stupid,
stupid?
see, but that's
a normal person's
Valentine's.
you, you get
more than that.
you get the Valentine's
weekend
with a special
opening ceremony
so breathtaking
you need
to be blindfolded
to get the full effect.
ned.
no hanky,
no surprise.
your choice.
ok, but not too tight,
and don't take me through
the english department.
I work with those people.
ok.
come on.
so all of their
California locations.
that's gotta be--
how many hotels
is that?
7. And they want
a restaurant
in every one.
that's...
that could be huge.
well, it's just a bid.
they're asking me
to make a bid
for the business.
and you're talking
to me because...
well, I need a package--
not just numbers,
but faces.
successful faces.
and I think, they meet you,
they feel your passion,
they see how young
you are.
being 20,
that's a good thing?
young is hot.
Bailey, this is the chance
of a lifetime here.
no. I know.
it's just...
you and I haven't
always seen
eye-to-eye
on everything.
I'm not handing you
something on a platter.
this is gonna be tough
and risky.
it's just, you know,
I've seen
how hard you work,
and I think maybe
a piece of this
is worth a piece of that.
Dr. baring:
police reports,
doctors' files,
Texas
social services.
is there any
overview in here?
uh...no.
not really.
I guess I should, uh...
um, basically...
Daphne's mother locked her
in the basement
and disappeared.
left her there with no
food or water
and just...Took off
with her boyfriend.
and, um, the neighbors
started to worry
because the lights
had been left on
and Daphne's mom had
left her alone before.
so after 3 or 4 days,
someone broke a window.
it's all there
in the police report.
who'd she stay with
after?
cousins, grandmother,
all different family.
18 months.
then her mom came back.
there were some hearings,
some court-ordered
parenting classes,
and then she got
Daphne back.
so, what does this mean?
I mean, does it make
sense to you
that she'd be the kind
of person that...
that wouldn't want kids?
well, from what
you've just said,
a girl like Daphne--
3 years old,
her mother leaves her,
leaves her like this--
I'd be amazed
if she trusted any
emotional commitment,
never mind with a baby.
really?
we call it primary
attachment aversion.
and this little girl,
she's a classic case.
really.
anthro 12. Ok.
you were saying?
it's a long shot,
for sure,
like any new business is,
but you can't beat
the location.
we'd be partnered
with these huge hotels--
really deep pockets
and a captive clientele.
that's great. That's...
notes for my take-home.
I almost forgot.
yeah, so definitely,
let's celebrate.
I mean, let's nuke up
a good time tonight.
well, tonight I can't
because I have to go
see Julia with Charlie.
right, right.
of course.
which is why we're
having lunch instead.
lunch. I can't.
I can't.
I've got, um...
medieval civ, I know.
which is why I'm gonna
drive you to class,
so I can drive you back.
so we can have
a ridiculously
extravagant,
expensive lunch
at le chevre
where I've already
made reservations.
really?
really.
oh, my god.
that's--no.
no.
no?
I forgot.
Charlie called,
and he's got a doctor's
appointment
or something.
you have
to pick up Owen.
now? I do?
well, who am I gonna
celebrate with?
sit up straight, o.
you're in a nice
place here.
what are we doing here,
Bailey?
I'm supposed to be
practicing my dribble.
you're supposed to be
coaching me.
it's a special
occasion, o.
well, why aren't we
at salinger's then?
because it's not
a special occasion
if I have to work.
so have some more...
have some more caviar.
it tastes like
mushed-up seaweed.
no, it doesn't.
I've had mushed-up
seaweed, Bailey.
it tastes
just like this.
ok. Here.
just let me tell you
what's special about
this occasion, ok?
our family
has a tradition
of being in
the food business,
and your big brother
is about--
mushrooms! Gross.
I'm gonna gag.
psych me, Cody.
I need psych.
ok.
the crowd is hushed
as master bowler stu
prepares to throw
his patented
destructo-mama.
adoring women of all
shapes and sizes
come from every corner
to see the wonder boy
bowl.
oh, yeah.
yes!
told ya.
all I needed
was psych, baby.
Claudia, you're up.
no, no, no, I'm not.
not playing.
come on, you're
on raff's team.
he already went.
you're up.
can I talk to you
a second?
I can't bowl.
I told you that,
like, 6 or 7 times.
everyone says that,
but they love it
when they try.
Cody, this is supposed
to be a date.
and I don't know
about you,
but my idea of a date
is when 2 people go out
and do something
that both of them
want to do.
stu and raff are
my buds, you know.
I always have a good time
when I'm with them,
so I thought,
if they come along,
you'd have a good time.
come on, bro.
is she goin' or not?
guess not, huh?
I just feel so bad.
ok. But,
Charlie, why?
I mean, if it's
like you said,
if it lets her
off the hook...
the stuff I said to her.
I mean, here she was
hating being a mother
and hating herself
for feeling that way,
and all I could do
was push her.
Charlie--
and all this time
there was stuff
to explain it,
stuff that could help her.
help her?
if she saw what was
in that file,
if she knew the stuff
that had happened to her.
do you really think this
is such a good idea?
do you really think that
this is something
you should do?
I don't know.
I mean, I always thought
she just wasn't cut out
to be a mother.
she was missing a gene
or something.
but--but now I can see
that this...
the trouble she had,
it wasn't her.
it was something
that happened to her.
and maybe she'd start
to see it that way, too.
maybe she'd start
to feel ok about--
about stuff that
felt wrong before.
like what?
like--like...
about being
with Diana?
like being with Diana.
like being here.
all of it. You know,
maybe we could...
maybe we could
be a family again.
hey.
hey, kiddo.
hi.
so, is it time?
it's time.
I gotta...
I'll, uh, see you later.
bye.
I can't believe that's
what you think of him.
I can't believe that's
what you think of me.
Jules.
Julia, we don't.
ok? We don't.
well, you must have
thought it was possible,
because you
came over here
to talk to me.
Griffin was just...
he was really
sure about it.
Griffin is jealous.
don't you see that?
don't you see that's why
he would do this?
yes, we do, but--
no. Don't blame Griffin
for this,
because you're the ones
standing here.
you're the ones asking me
if my boyfriend beats me,
and how am I supposed
to answer that, huh?
how am I supposed
to convince you
that he isn't?
you want me to tell you
everything that we
do together?
you want me to tell you
what we say when we fight?
'cause we do fight,
if that's ok.
Julie, nobody's
asking--
or is that not enough?
you wanna know
how we make up?
you wanna know
about the sex?
Julia, that's enough.
ok? That's enough.
This just really hurts.
you know?
'cause while you guys
are having babies
and managing
restaurants,
ned is there for me
every second--
worrying about me
and taking care of me
like no one has since...
god, since mom and dad.
so maybe instead
of insulting ned,
you should be
saying thanks.
No, i--
none of it.
I don't want
his money, Martha.
it's not that kind of divorce.
that's not why I hired you.
look, if it's your fee
that you're worried about,
I have other expenses
to take care of first--
just, you know,
moving expenses, but--
well, I'll get a job.
I haven't
thought it through yet,
but obviously I have to.
I'm on my own now, so..
so I'll...
I'll do what
I have to do.
ok, can we just...
can we just
get this part done?
ok.
Charlie?
where are you?
Charlie?
I was just--
I need--
I need your advice.
I'm going to need to find
a job in a hurry, and--
I'm going to go
see her, Kirsten.
what?
I'm going
to go see her.
I mean...
what else can I do,
you know?
she won't return
my phone calls.
there's no way
I can talk to her.
and I can't just
mail it to her.
no way.
unless you give it
to one of her friends.
no, no.
no. I have to be there
when she sees it.
I gotta tell her
what the doctor said.
I mean, this is...
this is way too intense.
ok. If--if that's
what you think.
ok. Bring it back now.
let's go.
he's open.
Sean: That's why
we have an opening.
they're all softened up
for our pitch.
now if we--
was this the only place
we could meet, or what?
I'm sorry.
let me just--
hey, guys.
ok. Ball.
guys, guys,
guys, guys.
hey, hey, hey. Guys.
don't just
hog the ball, ok?
sometimes you gotta
look for the open man.
well, we're actually
working on shooting.
yeah, but if they're
5 feet out,
they can't even
reach the hoop.
hey, Bailey. I got
Rutledge on the line.
he wants to hear
about our floor plan.
ok.
you guys are on
a team here.
ok? So don't try
and play every position.
if everybody's on you,
look to pass sometimes, ok?
good. Thank you,
Bailey.
good idea.
passing drill, guys.
2 lines, single file.
hello.
right. Ok. I'll
describe it to you.
you walk into
a vestibule.
no, no. The kitchen's
across from the bar.
if you try
and picture--
Jerry, yeah,
hang on a second.
look, we can't do this
over the phone.
he's 20 minutes away
downtown.
why don't we just
drive over there,
put the drawings
right in front of him?
coach: Good. Back
of the line. Pass.
Sean, I've got
these kids.
Bailey, come on.
you wanna close
this deal or not?
we are this close.
pass. Shoot.
back of the line.
pass. Shoot.
hi.
wait. Listen.
before you say
anything...
ok, last night
with stu and raff,
I've been thinking
about that a lot,
and it was bad.
uh-huh?
I mean, the bowling thing
and stu and raff...
look, I'm not gonna
lie to you.
it sucked.
yeah. Those guys can be
such jerks, you know?
you know what?
I don't care
about them.
they're not the ones
who asked me out.
I know. I know.
which is--here. Wait.
tomorrow's
Valentine's day,
and I just...
here.
open it.
it's Jimmy Garrison's pick.
he used to play
with Coltrane.
Cody, I...
I don't--
I got it from this
collector guy I know.
and he didn't have
any papers or anything,
but I trust him.
it's real.
ok, but...
why?
I mean, why?
it's...
um...
'cause nobody ever
made me feel
the way you did
last night.
you know, embarrassed
or whatever
of me and my friends.
and I don't know
why that is,
except that maybe
I just never cared
what anybody
thought of us before
because I never met anyone
that I liked that much...
until you.
Wow, Cody.
wow.
should we
call him again?
my sister said
he left an hour ago.
I don't know
where he could be
if he isn't--
there you are.
you're 40 minutes late.
where were you?
I was trying
to figure out
what I was gonna do.
now that you got
your brothers fooled.
ok. You know
what you can do?
you can cut it out.
Griffin,
leave me alone.
I don't need
your help, ok?
I'm fine.
he-he's got you
fooled, too.
ok, you know what,
let's just sign
the papers
and get this
over with,
all right?
no.
no. I won't.
Griffin, you've wasted
enough money as it is
making everybody wait.
I'm not signing anything.
send them home.
god! Oh! What is
the matter with you?
what the hell
do you want?
I want it to stop.
I don't know what
to say to you, Griffin.
tell me you won't
see him again.
tell me that he
won't come near you.
you promise me that,
I'll sign
anything you want.
you'll never
see me again.
can he do this to me?
can he lie and refuse
to do what he promised?
why do we even need him
to sign these papers?
can't I get a divorce
without him?
well, there's an extra
hearing process,
but if you can
show just cause--
I can show whatever
you need, believe me.
You think 2 jumbos
will do it?
well, they sell diapers
in L.A., I guess.
I guess.
should I call Joe?
'cause I don't know
if I'm gonna have
time to see him.
I don't know how long
this is gonna take.
yeah. There's a lot
you don't know, huh?
what?
what are you doing,
Charlie?
are you going
so you can drop
this file off
and hope
for the best?
are you planning
on taking her
to see a doctor?
or, I mean...
you said you wanted her
to come back here.
is that so she can be
Diana's mother?
or is it more than that?
are you hoping that
you two can be
together again?
Kirsten, what's...
are you mad at me
or something?
did I do
something wrong?
that file that you
have, Charlie,
that's a really
big deal.
it could
shake her up
and not just
in the ways that
you want it to.
ok. But i--
you put her
in this position
in the first place,
ok,
when you asked her
to keep the baby.
you rushed
into something
without really
thinking about it,
and now look
what you've got.
so this time...
you should know
what you're doing.
you should really
think this through
before you do it,
Charlie.
Hi. Excuse me.
is Cody here?
I hope not.
well, when
he gets back,
could you
give this to him?
he's not
coming back.
he doesn't work here
anymore.
why not?
well, it's
a store policy.
if I catch
a customer stealing,
I throw him
outta here.
if I catch
an employee
stealing...
you...you caught
Cody stealing?
I'm not calling
the cops.
that's assuming
I get my pick back.
(loud music playing)
so, I was thinking,
for the anaheim location,
we're not far from
Disneyland there,
so why not cater
to the kids a little bit?
you know, um,
paper tablecloths
and crayons.
yeah.
maybe look into a tie-in
with one of the parks.
sure.
so who's next
for a dance?
Bailey?
uh, no. No, thanks.
not for me.
do a little something
for my pal flackett
over there.
uh...ahem,
now I had some thoughts
on speeding up
food delivery,
so I made some
kitchen drawings here.
who's got a light?
this Cuban's dying on me.
Could we maybe so this
somewhere else?
it's a little, uh,
distracting--
all the moving
body parts.
Bailey, relax.
we got the gig.
no. I know.
I just...
I thought we were
supposed to be working.
we're working.
we're also having
a little fun.
we are?
Bailey.
have a drink.
just relax.
thanks. I don't drink.
come on, kid.
take the edge off.
I don't drink.
guess the kid
doesn't drink.
Bailey.
what's the matter
with you?
I'm wasting
my time here
is what's
the matter with me.
everybody's
getting wrecked.
this place
is disgusting.
yeah? Well, guess what.
that's the way
these guys work, ok?
they meet in disgusting places.
they drink too many drinks.
so that's it?
it doesn't matter that
I don't wanna be here?
well, when you're
as big as them,
hold your meetings
in a convent.
until then,
just grow up.
'cause this
is the job, ok?
and we're lucky
to have it.
You know, you're, uh,
a lot better
than my old man was.
the only person
he managed to fool
was my sister.
how'd you get in here?
my ma, she--
she was smart.
she just took off.
and me, as soon as
I got big enough,
I just started
to hit back.
look, you're gonna
have to leave now.
but, uh, you, uh...
you, uh...
you managed
to fool everybody, huh?
Justin.
her brothers.
even her.
this is my dorm, moron.
there's college cops
like 10 feet away.
sit down!
now...
that's the thing.
the messing
with her head.
that's what makes me
want to kill you.
you know,
you're gonna be
in a lot of trouble.
you guys are done.
you hear me?
because you're not
gonna hurt her anymore.
I don't care
how it works,
but you're done.
and you're not gonna
see her anymore, ever.
actually, I am.
I'm gonna see her
in about 15 minutes.
no, you're not.
'cause I'm telling you,
if you see her...
you're gonna get hurt.
it's Valentine's day,
Griffin.
like it or not,
we're in love.
are you listening
to me?
want to know
what we're doing
on our date?
I'm giving you
fair warning.
strip poker
in her bedroom.
I know.
it's not so romantic,
but we did
hearts and flowers
yesterday.
Hey, man! Get off him, man!
let go of me!
who are you?!
let go of me!
let--go of me.
let me go.
I'm just gonna,
uh, get your stuff,
then I'll be right over,
ok, ned? Ok?
so nobody heard
how it started?
no. We just heard
a noise,
and when we came in,
he was already
whaling on ned.
you want to wait
for your boyfriend's
statement,
or shall we
bring him right in?
you mean arrest him?
are you kidding?
did you see
what he did?
did you see
what he did to ned?
yeah. Yeah.
I want him arrested.
I'm gonna need you
to put your hands
behind your back.
I'm placing you
under arrest.
you have the right
to remain silent.
anything you say
can and will be
used against you
in a court of law.
you have the right
to an attorney.
if you cannot
afford one,
one will be
provided for you.
(crying)
(Horn honks)
coming!
(honk honk)
I'm coming! Jeez!
hey, listen,
I brought that thing
that you wanted
for the, um...
hi.
listen before
you get all mad,
all right?
listen, I've been--
I've been calling you
for days,
and you obviously
don't want to talk
to me, and I get that,
but there's what's it
something really been, like,
important. 3 weeks?
listen. There's stuff
about you, about you
as a baby--
do you have any idea
how hard that was
to say good-bye to her?
do you have any idea?
and you brought her
here? What are you
trying to do to me?
don't you understand?
you've gotta read this.
you've gotta know
what's in this.
no. You...Stay...
away from me.
Daphne, please. Just
read it and call me.
I wrote my motel
number on here.
just read it
and call me, Daphne,
please! Ple--
(sighs)
x-rays look ok.
no broken ribs,
no bleeding.
I'm gonna
send you home.
good. That's great.
now, the, uh, stitches
over his right eye
need redressing
once a day. Can you
handle that for him?
ok. Good.
God. I'm so sorry.
I knew he didn't
want us together,
but I never thought--
I mean, he's not
the kind of person
who'd...
do something
like this. You know?
who'd hit someone.
what?
what's that mean?
nothing.
it...means
nothing.
Hey! I got
your message.
what's, uh--
don't get out.
look, I know it's
none of my business,
but I'd...Feel better
if you just gave this
back to your boss.
look, I was gonn--
I was gonna pay him back
or whatever, all right?
no, you don't
understand.
I don't want to hear
what you were "gonna"
do, ok?
you were supposed to be
more than this.
you were supposed to be
worth the fight.
worth what fight?
the fight with Griffin.
when he said that you
weren't good enough.
when he said that you
were basically the same
kind of loser as him.
'cause that's
the thing, Cody.
Griffin?
he's not.
he's this amazing
person, who...
that no one sees
for how great he is.
I wanted you
to be that, too.
(Shouting)
ok, guys!
ok, guys, defense!
defense! Guard him!
don't let him shoot!
boy: Get it!
don't--don't let
him--he's setting
up to shoot! Don't--
yay!
it's ok! It's ok!
it's all right.
it's fine. Come on.
we're dead.
we are through.
we're not dead. We're
down by 3 points.
y-you know
how long it took us
to get the first 3?
it's 9 to 6
with a minute left.
ok. Owen.
just find
the open man,
buddy!
girl: Come on,
Owen!
boy:

I never thought--
jule, listen. Please?
Julia...my dad
won't help me.
and I can't remember
the name of that lawyer
you guys h...Have.
listen, I understand
if you don't want
to help me.
look,
I didn't go over there
to hurt him. Ok?
I just...
I said what I said,
and he--
he wouldn't listen!
which is...God, I mean,
it's no excuse.
i--i just...
Julia...
don't let this
make you forget
what he did to you.
don't forget what
he did to you.
officer:
that's it.
you only get one.
(sighs)
(Knock on door)
one second.
ok.
Daphne. Wow.
I didn't-- I want you
to tell me
something, Charlie.
I know. You gotta have
a lot of questions.
why are you doing this?
what do you want from me?
nothing.
nothing. I thought you
should know this stuff.
you thought that
I should know my mother
almost killed me?
uh...no. I wasn't
trying to upset you.
then are you trying
to punish me?
are you trying
to say that I did
the same thing to Diana?
no. No!
I thought that if you--
if you saw this,
then you'd--
you'd see that
this stuff with Diana...
it's not your fault.
then what do you want
from me, then?!
do you want me to stay
away from her? Because
I was trying to do--
Daphne, wait. Just--
just listen to yourself.
this is what
I'm talkin' about.
you won't trust me
because you can't...'Cause
that's what this did to you.
you're scared
that it's gonna be
like it was with your mom,
but...daphne...
you can trust this.
you can trust
your daughter.
she's not gonna leave you.
she's never gonna leave you.
(crying)
shh!
hey.
it's ok.
(crying)
hey, hey, hey,
hey, hey.
shh. Shh.
(crying)
(gurgles)
she's never gonna
leave you, Daphne.
so you don't have to
leave her first.
you don't have to
leave her.
(crying)
(door closes)
(sighs)
(crying)
(cries out)
hey, it's ok.
shh, shh, shh.
(crying)
shh, shh, shh, shh.
(Sighs)
Mmm...mmm...
mmm...mmm...
mmm...
(breathes fitfully)
mmm!
mmm...mmm...
mmm...
pfftt.
hello?
yeah. Hi. I, uh,
wanted to get
your schedule of flights
to San Francisco
tomorrow morning.
ok. And after that?
and, um...
what do you have
in the afternoon?
(Sighs)
Thank you very much. Bye.
(ring)
hello?
hello.
So, I know that you have
meetings all day with Sean,
but I'm not gonna be able
to cover with Owen
this afternoon.
you know what Owen
said to me yesterday?
he said...
that of all the dads
on his team,
that I'm the best...
because I'm most
like a kid.
he calls you a dad?
yeah, but that's
not even the part.
Sarah, he's right.
I'm 20 years old,
which...basically,
is still a kid.
and here I am, tryin'
to figure out...
(sighs)
um, deciding
whether I'm gonna
be a family man
or a--or a guy who's
starting his own business.
"deciding."
there's
a decision to make?
well, yeah.
there is.
you mean whether
to do this thing
with Sean?
mm-hmm.
Bailey, I thought this
was, like, the chance
of a lifetime.
yeah. I know.
but you know
what I realized?
maybe the chance
of a lifetime
means something
different to me.
because...
mom and dad dying
took...a ton away,
but it also
gave me something.
it made me grow up
really fast.
and so now...
I'm getting a shot
at stuff that most guys
have to wait for
till they're twice my age.
and...
if I pass
this one up...
I still have
a whole extra lifetime
to go after it again.
are you sure?
I mean, what about
those restaurants,
you know,
that you were gonna
build from scratch?
I know. I know.
I think about that.
but I just...
I go back
to yesterday...
watching Owen sink
that wobbly shot,
that one...
stupid basket.
and...
I can't miss that.
I don't want
to miss that.
I can't.
Claudia,
what are you doin'?
you should not be here.
well, someone had
to bail you out.
oh, with
your own money?
relax. You'll
pay me back.
(sighs)
ohhh!
when will I learn?
why can't I stay
the hell out of stuff?
(sighs)
god, I...Try to get Julia
to stay away from him,
and now she just feels
sorry for the guy.
you guys would all be better off
if I just stayed locked up.
I don't think that,
Griffin.
yeah, well,
maybe you should.
I don't know if you're
right about ned or not.
but what I do know...
if Owen gets lost or...
Diana needs eardrops
at 3 A.M., or...
I'm hooking up
with some bass-playing
loser...
you're just there.
and not
for any reason...
except...
we need you.
you're like this...
this angel, Griffin...
this guardian angel.
ok, the, uh, g-gauze
is stuck to the stitches,
so...almost got it.
there. God, are you ok?
did I hurt you?
I'm fine. Ok? Just...
wrap it back up.
after this, I'm gonna
order you some food.
and I don't know
what you're reading,
but I know
your eye's hurting,
so I'll read to you.
unless you want to watch
a movie or something.
uh, Julia...
you don't have to
do this. Please.
actually, ned, I do.
your face is
covered in stitches.
and your arm
is in a sling.
and, I mean...
god, ned,
my husband did it.
so just...
lie back and--
and let me do this
for you, ok?
I need you to let me
do this for you.
What do
those colors mean?
these highlights here?
they tell me when
reservations get here.
why's that one pink?
oh, that's
to Mark customers
who come here a lot
so we can give 'em,
you know, like,
a free dessert
or something.
I come here a lot.
where's my dessert?
(chuckles)
you like coming here,
Owen?
you like comin'
to visit?
yeah! It's fun.
because...
when you grow up...
if you want...
you could do
what I do.
you could be
the boss here.
me? Be the boss?
if you want.
dad gave it to me.
and I can give it
to you.
could I use
different colors
in the book?
you could use
any colors you want...
when you're the boss.
(chuckles)
(Sighs)
(Knock on door)
Daphne.
hey,
I hoped you'd--
Charlie, uh...
can I ask you
a question?
ask you a question
about that, um...
police report thing?
uh, was there
anything...
(clears throat)
um, was there
anything about, uh...
one of those...
string things?
a marionette?
was there...
uh...
yeah.
there was.
they said
when they came
down the stairs,
they...
they saw this thing.
at first they thought
it was you,
but it was this, uh...
little blue soldier.
right. That's right.
a soldier.
so...you remember
being...
every door I ever
tried to go through
in my dreams?
it was guarded
by that soldier.
and I thought that
that was just
a nightmare thing.
but it was real.
so don't--
doesn't that
make you feel better
to know that?
that everything
in my dreams was real?
and--and everything
real was a dream?
(chuckles tearfully)
(sighs)
do you know
what they told me?
why mom was missing
from so many family
pictures?
they said it was
because she was sick.
and they told me that
so many times
that I can still
see the hospital
where they said
they took me to visit.
oh, Daphne, I'm sorry.
and what about
all the lies
I told myself?
wondering why
I could never keep
a boyfriend?
hating myself so much as
to strip, even though I knew
that it made me miserable?
and what did I say
to myself?
I said,
"hey, daph, buck up.
your life is great.
you've got your friends.
you've got your family."
I don't even know
what my life is anymore.
I don't know
a single thing.
I don't know
a single thing.
