Oh, excuse me.

Fuck!

God damn it.

Where were you?

I went for a walk.

Nice.

Well, he had to go to the bathroom,

and you weren't there to help me lift him.

I thought Nikki showed you how to do it yourself.

Oh, yeah. You try doing it yourself.

It's not that easy.

I'm sorry, I just--

I did not sleep very much last night.

- Go take a nap. - No.

Yeah, Mom.

Mom, I got it.

- Barbara! - Dad.

- I'm here, Dad. - Barbara!

Dad, do you need something?

I can do it.

Oh!

Agh!

Okay, all right.

Mom, he's calling for you.

Okay.

Hi, honey.

Barbara!

I'm here, I'm here, I'm here.

Hi, sweetheart.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Okay. All right.

Just--

Let me--let me just--

- The morphine. - What?

On the nightstand.

Pass me the morphine.

Okay.

Yeah, that's fine.

All right.

Thank you.

Okay, here we go.

Barbara!

Okay, we'll do half.

Only half.

Okay.

Okay, here we go.

Here we go.

Here you go, sweetheart.

Here we go, here we go.

Okay, there you go.

Drink it up.

There we go.

Okay.

Shh.

Here we go.

Here we go.

There you go.

Is he--is he--

No.

I should have come back sooner.

Yeah, you should have.

What did you do?

Mom, it's fine!

I didn't--No, I didn't throw anything away.

They're in the night--

Well, what about this?

Well--well, it's-- it smelled like shit

and had human teeth inside.

Where do you even get teeth, Ma?

You know what? I really don't want to know.

It's a medicine bag.

Well, it's disgusting.

When did you start believing in voodoo?

When did you become a cultural chauvinist?

I've always had a spiritual side.

You went on a yoga retreat once 20 years ago.

I'd hardly call that being spiritually enlightened.

Well, Deb says that all experiences

have meaning and value.

Oh.

Well, if Deb says it, then it must be true.

They don't just let anyone become a yoga instructor.

Get out.

What?

He doesn't need this negative energy weighing him down.

Mom, I'm--

Go, go.

Just go.

Fine.

Jesus.

Any changes in the medication?

Uh, he's not eating, so we stopped the Ondansetron

and.

That's to be expected at this point.

You should talk with his doctor.

You may be able to stop the dexamethasone tablets and

the Thorazine, and just stick with the mirtazapine

and oxycodone.

Has he been responding to the morphine?

Yes.

Oh, he doesn't need that much.

That's the recommended amount.

No, but he--he doesn't like taking that much.

It clouds his mind.

I think he's beyond that.

Clearly, he's in pain.

You need to be giving him the full dose.

Mom, come on.

We should.

Okay.

Thank you so much for your time.

You need to make sure he's getting

his full dose of morphine.

It's important to stay ahead of the pain.

Okay.

I see this happen all the time.

She's withholding it because it makes her feel needed.

I'm sure she already feels pretty needed.

He calls out for her all the time.

He calls out for her because he's in pain,

not because he wants her.

If she gave him the correct dosage, he wouldn't call out.

Oh.

Almost there.

Okay. Come on, honey.

Yep.

Here we go.

Here we go.

This will be much easier than getting you to the bathroom.

Mom.

Yeah.

Um, do you remember that thing

Dad and I were working on?

What thing?

The--um, the nonprofit.

The scholarship program?

The--

Oh, the one to help ethnic kids.

Low-income, Mom.

Jesus Christ.

Is that still a thing?

Yeah, we definitely don't call people "ethnic" anymore.

No, I meant the scholarship program.

Oh, yeah.

Yeah.

Uh, that's the hope.

Dad said that if--if the grant didn't come through, that he

would pay to contribute to--

No.

What do you mean, no?

The answer is no.

Can we have a conversation about it, please?

We can't afford it right now.

Can I ask why?

Medical expenses.

I thought insurance was covering the medical costs.

It's not that.

Look, I would not ask if we had any other options,

but we were counting on that money.

Why are you always borrowing money?

I'm not always borrowing money.

And it's not for me.

It's for the kids.

What a martyr.

Mom, I'm not a martyr.

- Mom! - You know what?

Is this something you even wanted,

or are you just doing this for him?

Of course I want to do this.

Of course.

Because if you really wanted to do this,

you would have applied for more grants.

What was the backup plan?

He was the backup plan.

What?

You cannot rely on us forever!

Oh, God damn it.

Where are my glasses?

Mom, your alarm.

Yes, I know, I know.

But I can't read the Goddamn spreadsheet without my glasses.

- Mom? - Where are they?

Mom! Mom!

Mom! Mom!

What!

They're right there.

Sorry.

Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry,

I'm sorry.

Let me give him his meds. Let me do it.

Let me do it. I'll do it.

- Yeah. - Yes, fine.

Do it.

Why don't we take the night off?

All right?

We deserve a break.

I can't leave him alone.

It wouldn't have to be for long.

I--no, we--

We can just go to dinner.

I--I can't.

I'll call Nikki, and she can come over.

- No. - You trust Nikki.

That is--no, that is out of the question.

Then you go, and I will stay here with him.

What if something happens?

What if--what if he stops breathing?

I'll call you.

I got it.

I got it.

How's it going?

It's the same.

I honestly don't know how much longer we can keep this up.

I'm sorry.

It's fine, it's fine.

I mean, it's not, but I finally convinced her to take a night

off, so that's something.

Hey, really?

What's she doing?

Going to dinner with friends, I think.

Maybe a movie. I don't know.

Wow.

I mean, that's a big step for her.

Yeah.

She hasn't taken a night off since Dad got sick.

Look, I know this is terrible timing, but did you ask

her about--d working on it.

I'll get the money.

Barbara!

Agh!

It's okay.

It's okay.

I'm here.

Do you want some water?

Barb--Barbara!

She's not here, Dad.

It's just me.

Oh, Barbara.

Dad, um--

What can I--

Oh!

Barbara!

Barbara!

Barbara!

Barbara!

- Barbara! - I'm coming, Dad!

I'm coming, I'm coming!

Oh, Dad!

Dad!

Here we go, here we go.

Open, open!

Ah!

There you go.

There you go.

It's okay.

It's okay. I got you.

It's all right.

Dad?

What's wrong with it?

I think he's dead.

Can you fix him?

No, sweetheart.

When something dies, they can't come back.

Why not?

Oh, it's just the way it is.

All you can do is let him go.

Do people die?

Yeah.

Everything dies eventually.

Will you and Mommy die?

Yeah.

But not for a very long time.

I don't want you to die!

It's okay. Hey, hey.

I know.

Death isn't anything to be afraid of.

It's natural.

Death is what makes life so special.

You know what the funny thing about death is?

Even when someone dies, they don't really go away.

They don't?

No.

As long as you remember them and love them,

they'll always be with you.

You know what that means, right?

You are stuck with me forever!

Dad?

Dad?

Dad, let's get you back to bed.

They're watching.

What?

Come on.

Oh, it's okay.

I already gave him his morphine.

What?

What?

He was in pain, so I gave it to him a little early.

You can't just give him his medication whenever you like.

There's a schedule in place.

There's a set time.

All right, I'm sorry.

I will not do it again.

I'm so sorry, Mom, but he's fine.

Look, he's fine.

What's the big deal?

I just gave Robert his morphine.

What?

Why?

Why would you walk in the door and immediately give

it to him without checking in?

Because my alarm went off.

Oh, my God, the fucking alarm.

It's not my fault.

Oh, so it's my fault?

Should we call somebody?

Should we take him to the hospital?

I don't know.

He's on one of those DNR things.

I don't think they would allow us to help him.

Is two doses lethal?

I don't know.

What do we do?

Do you hear that?

What?

That scratching sound.

It's just the rats.

Rats?

We've had them for years.

They get in through the roof.

It was Robert's job to call the exterminator

when things got really bad.

I think it's time to call the exterminator.

Mom--Mom.

Mom.

When do you think he--

I don't know.

He's already cold.

I thought the end would be different somehow.

Some final moment.

We weren't even awake.

It doesn't feel right.

- Oh, no. - What?

What?

We need to close his eyes and mouth before the rigor

mortis sets in.

Okay.

Okay.

All right.

Um--

Okay.

- Oh, it's stuck. - We waited too long.

Push harder.

I don't want to hurt him.

It's a little late for that.

Try.

Give it another try.

Okay, here we go.

Oh, God.

Close his eyes.

They won't stay down.

That'll have to do.

It doesn't feel real.

No.

Mom.

Mom.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, it just happened.

Okay, I don't--all right, I don't really know.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, no, um--

Mom?

No, I--

- Mom, Mom. - Okay.

What the hell?

Mom?

The fuck?

I understand.

All right.

Thank you.

What the hell was that?

What?

What--why were you running away from me like that?

I wasn't running away.

Were you talking to the funeral home?

No.

Well, who--what are you doing?

We need to keep the body cold.

Why?

To stop it decomposing.

We need to keep it cold so it stays fresh through tomorrow.

You want to keep him here overnight?

Yes.

Well, are we allowed to do that?

Alexa, play "Of You."

Here's "Of You" by Human Beinz.

Are you okay?

Alexa, stop.

Alexa, play.

Alexa, stop.

Mom, just tell me.

What's going on?

I didn't mention it before, because I

didn't think you'd approve.

Approve of what?

Deb recommended him.

Recommended who?

He doesn't have a name.

I mean, she gave me his number.

I mean, not his number, but--

they sent me a list.

Things we have to prepare before his arrival.

Mom, who is coming over?

The man Deb recommended.

Recommended for what?

To bring Robert back.

From where?

Oh.

- You don't know. - Oh, Mom.

- No, he's-- - Um--

Deborah said he's--

he's done it before.

Listen, will you-- will you just let me--

I always--

I always let you.

When the chemo stopped working, I

went along with the crystals and

the herbal teas and the smudging and

all the other bullshit that didn't work.

Well, maybe it didn't work because you

didn't believe that it would.

Oh, yeah, sure.

It's my fault that incense can't cure cancer.

The point is, I let you try it.

But this?

Mom.

Mom, this is fucking crazy.

Well, luckily, it's not up to you.

Alexa, play!

Mom, wait!

I can't seem to find "Mom, Wait."

Alexa, shut the fuck up!

Look, I know, I know we don't always

see eye to eye on everything, but

I really need you to just take a minute, take a minute,

and really think about this.

Okay?

Do you honestly believe that some random guy

can bring Dad back?

Yes.

See, this is why I didn't tell you.

Mom, you're a smart woman.

How can you possibly believe that?

Deborah said.

Fuck Deborah!

Deborah still thinks vaccinations cause autism!

You cannot listen to her.

But what if she's right?

What if he can bring Robert back?

We--we can't just sit around and do nothing!

You have no idea what it's like.

You're not the only one who lost someone.

Actually, it is not the same!

It is not the same.

40 years.

I don't know who I am without him anymore.

Alexa, play "Of You."

Here's "Of You" by Human Beinz.

Fuck.

Hey, kiddo.

I don't know what to do.

Your mother's grieving.

You gotta be patient with her.

But she's--

If you fight her on this, she's just going

to dig her heels in more.

What would you do?

Oh, well, if you don't let her try this,

then you're the bad guy.

She'll resent you and always wonder if it could have worked.

But if you go along with it and it doesn't work,

then what's-his-name is the bad guy, not you.

I hate when you're right.

♪ --are here with me

♪ Though you're far, far away

Alexa, turn down the volume.

Have you been smoking?

Have you been drinking?

♪ I need you here

♪ To fill the emptiness--

Where do you want to start?

♪ --I feel inside

We need to gather all his precious objects.

Anything that holds the most memories of him, things he

most loved.

We really have to clear this all out?

It has to be a blank slate.

♪ If you know what it's like to be alone ♪

♪ Then you know that it's true ♪

♪ All I do is sit around

♪ Sit around, thinking of you

Turn, turn.

Here we go.

Turn, turn.

Okay.

Okay.

I'm insane.

Oh, my God.

Okay, Okay.

Can't we just burn one thing?

We have to burn everything.

It's just stuff.

It's not him.

It's all we have left, Mom.

Do you think keeping a watch is gonna help you

remember your father better?

No, that's not what I mean.

Because none of this matters.

It just doesn't matter.

It's the memories, that's what's important.

I love that photo of you two.

It's my favorite.

You were such a good little dancer.

Couldn't get enough of it.

It was so sad when he made you give it up.

What are you talking about?

You don't remember?

Robert thought that dancing was a distraction,

so he took you out of your classes.

That doesn't sound like him.

It was exactly like him.

It's what he did.

He molded people.

That's why you ended up in chess club instead.

Well, that's not how I remember it.

You always had a glorified image of your father.

You never saw him clearly.

Oh, and you did?

People save the worst parts of themselves

for their spouses.

That's terrible.

Yeah, sometimes it was.

If you were so unhappy, why didn't you just leave?

Because he also saved the best part for me, too.

Robert wasn't perfect.

Nobody is.

Loving the best part of someone is easy.

It's seeing their flaws and accepting them and knowing

they do the same for you.

That's love.

Come on, honey.

I know it's just best.

Mom, one photo will not make a difference.

Please, give it to me.

- Oh, no, no, no, no. - No!

No!

No phones, no phones.

Look, you will thank me tomorrow.

Now, let's--let's get cleaned up.

Is this really necessary?

Ow!

What's wrong?

I lost my place.

I've lost my place.

I don't know if I should start at the beginning,

or if I should go pick up from where I left off.

Mom.

It's okay.

Okay.

I'm here with you, okay?

Okay.

Okay.

Okay, tilt your head back.

Don't start.

I didn't say anything.

I think you should slow down.

It's not too late to back out.

I can't back out.

He's not even here yet.

We could just call and say we changed our minds.

I'm not changing my mind.

Jesus, when did you get so stubborn?

Okay, Mom.

My mother always said the punishment

of having a daughter was they turn out just like you.

I'm not--

Oh, yes, you are.

I mean, you blame me for all your shortcomings

- while your father-- - Can we not?

Please?

I think you should slow down.

Good for you.

Okay, I'm not trying to talk you out of anything.

I just think it seems like you're a little stressed.

That's all.

I'm here for you.

Okay?

I'm just saying, I'm here for you, whatever you want to do.

Are you okay?

Mom?

We both know that you just don't want to be here.

I just said, I'm here for you.

You know, I just--you'll ruin everything if you stay.

What? I'm ruining--

Honey, I want you to go. I want you to go.

What is going on? I'm not gonna leave--

Just go! It's what you do best!

That is not fair.

You knew he was sick, and you left anyway.

And then, you didn't come back until it was too late.

I did not leave because Dad got sick.

Yes, you did. Yes, you did!

Your precious life in New York was more important to you

than your dad!

No, Mom, I left because of you.

Me?

Yes!

You were so controlling.

You were breathing down my neck.

You were micromanaging everything

I did, everything he did.

Well, what was I supposed to do?

I mean, how was he supposed to take care of himself?

I could have helped, but you treated me like a child

- that was getting in the way. - Oh, fine.

It's my fault that you left? Is that what you're saying?

Fine.

Then it is my fault. No, it is your fault

that you stayed away so long!

You should have come back sooner.

You should have come back when he was coherent enough

to recognize you!

I didn't know how bad it was!

You just kept saying he was doing fine!

Nobody says those kind of things!

It's--I couldn't go into every excruciating detail!

The weight loss, the vomiting!

You should have told me!

You knew he was sick.

And you just didn't want to deal with it.

No, you didn't want to deal with it.

He wanted to die in peace without the chemo,

but you forced him into treatment,

even though the doctor said it wasn't gonna save him!

But it didn't matter what he wanted.

And it didn't matter what I wanted.

Because the only thing that ever fucking

matters is what you want!

Go.

Go.

Hello.

Thank you for coming.

I--I hope you didn't have any trouble finding the place.

This is Megan.

Mom?

Mom?

Oh--

Mom?

Mom!

Mom!

Mom.

Mom.

Mom!

Mom?

Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm fine.

Take those off.

We cleared everything out.

I got the incense and candles you requested.

The crystals have been hanging for three weeks now.

Oh.

Of course.

You--you want us to prepare the body first, right?

Um--so we'll get started.

Would you help me?

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

All right.

Good.

Great.

Is that really necessary?

He's supposed to be naked for the ritual.

What are you doing?

I told you--

He can have a little modesty until the ritual starts.

Is that all right?

See?

It's fine.

What is that?

It's a witch's ladder for protection.

Is that your hair?

Oh, my God.

What was that?

Ashes.

Oh, my--

Here are the ashes.

Mom!

He wants us to put Robert in the circle.

How are we going to--

Just do it.

I'm gonna get under him right here.

Okay, 1, 2, 3.

Okay.

Uh--oh!

Shh, shh!

Mom, can we talk for a second?

Not now.

Yes, now.

How much are you paying him for this?

- None of your business. - Mom.

Mom?

There was a lot of money in that bag.

How much are you paying him?

The deal is done.

Mom, Mom, this conversation is not over.

How much?

Everything.

What does that mean?

All of it.

But you still have your savings and your 401, yeah?

All of it.

Mom!

Mom, Mom, tell me.

Tell me you didn't.

Tell me you didn't.

I had to.

Oh, my God.

It's worth it.

- Oh, my God! - Shh!

Oh, my God!

Mom!

Mom, what are you--what are you--what are you doing!

What are you doing?

You're supposed to be the pragmatist!

You've been squirreling away money your whole life.

How--how could you-- how could you do this?

How could you--how could you be so reckless?

What happened?

It's a calculated risk.

Undo it.

I can't.

It's too late to turn back now.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

What are you going to--what are you going to live on?

I can't support you.

- I can't. - Doesn't matter.

Of course it matters.

Of course it matters.

Okay, Mom.

Mom, okay, Mom.

Imagine you're actually able to bring Dad back.

What are you going to live on?

Did you ever think about that?

It doesn't matter.

Oh, for fuck's sake, Mom!

How could you do this to me?

That wasn't just your money!

That's not fair!

It wasn't just your money!

Did you think about me for a fucking second!

Leave.

I'll do the ritual myself.

Mom!

Shit.

Don't be so hard on your mother.

She's trying her best.

I--I can't.

I--I can't.

You know you can't leave her alone with him.

Fuck.

I wish you were here.

Take care of her.

You're all she has left now.

Where is it?

Where is it?

What did you do with it?

What did you do with it!

Megan.

What is that?

What's that for?

Protection.

Protection from what?

Once the circle is sealed, we cannot leave

until the ritual is complete.

Okay?

We have to do exactly what he says, or things could get--

What?

Once we prepare the body, we'll do the second surrender

and perform the spell to take us to the other side.

The other side?

Then we'll summon Robert's spirit back to his body.

And the third surrender will bring us home.

Are you ready?

Yes.

What's that for?

Cry.

Cry?

Mom?

Well?

I can't just cry on command.

Your father just died.

I'm sorry.

I--

You know what that means, right?

You're stuck with me forever!

Honey?

Rob?

Robert! There you are.

What are you doing?

We're gonna be late.

Is that what you're wearing?

I thought you liked this dress.

I do.

It's fine to wear when we go see your friends.

We never go see my friends.

I just don't think it's appropriate

for dinner at the dean's.

That's all.

--this is reinvigorating my career.

I would be back before the semester even started.

Five weeks is a long time.

You left for three months during your sabbatical.

It's not the same.

No, it's not, because you would be the one

left alone here with Megan.

That's not my--

It's not the right time.

Maybe in a few years.

Hey, kiddo!

This is ridiculous.

Robert, you're overreacting.

I knew this was a mistake.

I should have never let you talk me into this.

It's not a mistake. She loves dancing.

Well, it's a distraction.

She should be focusing on her studies.

Robert, she's seven years old.

Yeah, you have to start good habits when they're young.

All she said was that Megan should be in a more

advanced dance class.

What could possibly be wrong with that?

Because it's not just a dance class!

It's starting her down a path, and

if she goes too far down it, she could end up like--

Swallow.

I don't feel so good.

Shh.

I can't feel my legs.

Mom?

Mom?

Mom?

Mom!

Mom!

Oh, no!

Oh, God!

Oh, no, no, no!

No, no, no!

I can't!

Oh, no!

Please stop!

Please stop!

No, no! Please, stop!

I can't!

Please stop!

What did you do?

The second surrender.

No, Mom.

No, I don't want to do this anymore.

We're so close.

Okay.

Okay.

Was that supposed to happen?

What was that?

Where is he?

- Where is he? - Where is he?

- Mom! - Where is he?

Mom! Where did he go?

Where did he go? Where is he?

Where is he!

Oh, my God!

I don't understand.

The circle was supposed to protect us.

Why isn't it working?

How could this have happened?

How could this have happened?

What's that?

What?

How did you?

We burned that!

I--

Burn it.

Seal the circle.

What?

Mom!

Quick!

Megan!

Do it!

I'm trying!

Do it!

Do it!

Dad?

Dad!

Do you see him?

No.

Where is he?

Robert?

Robert?

We're here, Robert.

Follow my voice.

Where are we?

Robert.

We need to get out of here.

I'm not going anywhere without him.

Robert.

Didn't you say there's a--a--a summoning

spell we're supposed to do?

The spell summons the spirit back to the body,

but it won't work if we don't have his body.

We need to get it back.

Robert?

Robert.

Shh, shh, shh.

Robert.

I don't think that's him.

Of course it is.

No, look at his body.

That's not him.

If we can get him back into the circle,

we can summon his spirit.

What about whatever is inside his body now?

Oh, Mom.

Mom, we have to go home.

This is clearly not where we're supposed to be.

No, no, no, no. We can't leave him here.

That is not Dad.

We don't know where he is.

He might not even be here.

- We should just go home. - We're not going to leave.

- Why? - Because we can't.

- Why not? - Because I don't know how.

You don't know how to get back?

Of course not.

That's what he was for.

- But you said-- - No, no, no.

No, no, no.

I know we're supposed to summon his spirit,

and then do the third surrender to take us home.

But you don't know what that is.

No, I don't.

Okay, first--first, we need to get

his body back into the circle.

And then we need to figure out a way to summon the spirit.

And then, once we're all reunited,

we need to find a way to get home.

All right? Okay.

Robert?

Robert?

Robert, come here.

Why isn't he coming?

I--

We have to find a way.

We have to find a way.

Okay.

Robert.

Robert, come here.

Come here.

Robert?

You want this?

You want this?

Here you go!

Mom!

Mom!

Mom! Mom!

Mom! Mom!

Mom!

- Mom, what are you doing? - I'm fine.

No!

I'm fine.

You want this?

No, no.

Come here.

It's okay.

Maybe we could--maybe we could pull him in.

No, no, no, Mom, no.

Robert.

Robert, please.

Please.

One more step.

Robert.

One more step.

Please?

Ah!

No!

No, no!

No!

No!

No, don't do that!

No, don't. Come on.

Look!

Robert!

Robert!

Mom!

Robert, no!

Oh, God!

Oh, God!

No! Mom!

No, Mom!

Oh, no, Mom!

Mom!

No!

Oh, no! No!

No, Mom!

Stop!

No!

No!

No, no!

Oh, no!

No, Mom!

Please, God.

I don't know if you can hear me, but--

if you're out there, I--

I could really use your help.

Please.

If there's anybody out there who can hear me, please,

please help me.

Please help me.

Please, please.

Please, please.

I don't belong here.

I just want to go.

Hello?

Hello!

Help me!

Help me!

Please!

Help me!

How do I get out of here?

No, wait!

Wait! No!

Come back!

Please!

No, don't leave!

Don't leave me, please!

Dad, please come back.

Please help me.

Shut up!

Just shut up!

Go away.

Go away!

The third surrender will bring us home.

Oh!

Fuck!

Fuck!

No.

Fuck it.

Come on!

Hello?

Hello?

Do people die?

Well, yeah.

Everything dies eventually.

Will you and Mommy die?

Dad?

- Yeah. - Dad!

But not in a very long time.

I don't want you to die!

Dad! Dad!

Death isn't anything to be afraid of.

Dad! It's me.

Dad!

Dad! Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad! Dad!

It's me, please!

Please, Dad!

Yes, even when someone dies, they never really go away.

They don't?

No.

As long as you love them and remember them,

they'll always be with you.

You know what that means, right?

You're stuck with me forever!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

Dad!

No!

Oh, no!

Oh, God!

Dad!

What's wrong with it?

I think he's dead.

Can you fix him?

No, sweetheart.

When something dies, they can't come back.

Why not?

It's just the way it is.

All you can do is let him go.

Do people die?

Well, yeah.

Everything dies eventually.

Sorry, Dad.

Will you and Mommy die?

Yeah.

But not for a very long time.

You left for three months during your sabbatical.

It's not the same thing.

No, it's not, because you would be

the one taking care of Megan.

Mom?

Look at you.

How could you do this?

How could you die like that?

I know it's not really you.

I know.

But I need you to be her for now.

I always had this image of you in--

in my head, of who you both were.

It stopped me from really seeing either of you.

Maybe--maybe if I had, none of this would have happened.

I'm tired of fighting.

You're stubborn, and you're selfish.

And you drive me fucking nuts.

But I do love you.

All of you.

I'm sorry I didn't say that more.

Goodbye, Mom.
