All language subtitles for 7th Heaven s09e07 Regret To Inform

What's going on?

We were going to play some pool to blow
off some steam after studying, but it

looks like all the tables are full.

You can wait with us if you want to.

Sure.

Hello?

Hi. I know you're out with the guys and
you should spend time with your friends,

but on your way home, could you pick up
a chocolate shake for me?

Of course.

So when are you coming home?

That shouldn't be long. An hour or so.

Or now.

Perfect. See you soon.

She sure is keeping you on a short
leash.

Doesn't your wife realize that this
pregnancy thing is just as hard on you?

mean, you need your alone time, too. The
fact that you two aren't married truly

amazes me.

Hi, guys.

Hi, Venus.

How have you been?

I've been good.

So, you guys are new.

Yeah, we just got here.

No, I mean, new on the job.

We don't work here.

Looks like you're going to have some fun
breaking those new guys in.

New guys?

They're coming out of the academy
looking younger and younger every year.

Oh, yeah.

You know rookies.

Dark -haired one's kind of cute.

Make sure you keep them in line.

Will do.

Good luck.

What does that mean?

Who knows?

Hey, don't look now. That woman is
checking you out.

What woman?

Smooth move.

She's not looking at me. She's like five
years older than us. Whatever. She's

looking at you.

When I see their happy faces smiling
back at me.

I know there's no greater feeling than
the love of

family.

Where can you go when the world don't
treat

you right?

The answer is home.

7 -7 7 -7

7 -7

Martin's still not home? No sign of him,
and he hasn't called.

Why didn't you try him on his cell
phone?

Do you have his number?

Neither do I. I've never had to call him
before, so I guess I never thought to

ask for it. He's always been so great
about coming home on time and doing his

homework. I hope nothing's wrong.

I'm sure he just lost track of the time.

That's probably true.

You're still going to try to find him,
right?

Yeah.

Don't pay any attention to them.

I'm not. Good for you.

They try to make it hard for you.

But they respect you more if you don't
take everything they dish out.

Good shot.

Thanks.

Where did the time go?

I know, it's kind of late and I should
be getting home.

You're going to take me home, right?

You want me to take you home? Yeah, my
friend dropped me off earlier, but she

already left.

I need a ride.

Can you handle it?

Uh, yeah, I can handle it. I'm sure your
friend can find his own way home.

I'm giving her a ride home.

We're giving her a ride home.

Actually, I think she just wants me to
drive her.

What am I supposed to do?

You drove me here. I'm sure one of
Kevin's buddies can take you.

Ready?

Sure.

I'm glad you're still up.

I'm not interrupting anything, am I? I
was just doing some reading before I go

to sleep.

I'm willing to postpone it if you need
anything.

Shoot. Do you have Martin Phil phone
number?

No. Why don't you just snoop around his
room and get it yourself?

That's what I would do.

I'm not going to snoop around his room
looking for a phone number.

Okay, I couldn't find it.

Do you have his friend Mac's number?

No. He's too old for me, remember?

Do you have any idea where Martin might
be?

I don't know.

He's usually home by now.

Oh, the pool hall. He said something
about studying and then going to the

hall. Pool hall.

Thanks.

Glad to help.

Thanks for the ride.

My pleasure. And thanks for walking me
inside.

No, it was nothing. Just a few feet from
the car to the door.

True. But you can never be too careful.

Well, now that I know you're safe, I
think I'll, uh, be on my way. What's the

rush? Uh, no rush, really. Just should
probably get home.

Are you sure you don't want to stay for
a drink?

Uh, thanks, but I don't drink.

Coffee?

Afraid it'll stunt your growth?

No, I just don't like the taste.

Also, it could make you jittery, and in
your line of work, you need to keep your

cool.

Then how about a soda?

Juice?

Walter, you were so nice to me. I should
do something to try to return the

favor.

Come on.

Stick around for a while.

Okay, but just for a minute. Then I
really need to get home and get some

Don't worry. I'll make sure you get to
your shift on time.

I'm just gonna go make some tea.

You rookie cops are all alike.

Sorry to bother you, but Martin hasn't
come home yet. I was wondering if you

any idea where he was.

I was at the pool hall with him earlier.
He was there when I left. Yeah, Ruthie

told me about the pool hall, but I
called and he isn't there anymore.

Did he say something about going
somewhere afterward?

He's probably with his friend Mac
hanging out somewhere.

Everything on the promenade's closed by
now. Where else could he be?

I'm sure he's fine.

He's never been late like this before.

I'll make some calls. Maybe we should go
look for him. No, let me make some

calls first.

Or maybe we should call the station, see
if there have been any accidents.

Don't worry. It's nothing.

How do you know it's nothing?

Martin was talking to this girl. He's
probably just out with her.

What kind of girl's out until the time
of night on a school night?

Lots of girls.

Yeah, lots of girls. Like the 20
-something -year -old woman whom you led

believe that Martin was a rookie cop.

Why would you do that?

She likes cops.

She's always hanging around.

I'm sure she's figured out the truth by
now.

It was just a joke.

Doesn't sound very funny. Older women
picking up younger men.

Martin's only... I'm 17.

Not only is it not funny, it's illegal.

Don't you have some calls to make?

Go back to the house. I'll find them.

I don't think it's funny either.

Sorry it took so long.

The minute I walk through the door, I
have to change into my pajamas.

Clothes are so confining, don't you
think?

Yeah, confining.

Look, when you called me a rookie
earlier... Sorry about that.

I'm not sure what the other guys are
calling you nowadays.

Rook, meet, newbie, plebe.

You think I'm a rookie cop?

It's kind of obvious, isn't it?

You've got a real boyish thing that none
of the other guys have.

You couldn't have been on the force for
very long, right?

Uh... Not exactly.

Don't worry.

It's not important.

I know some of you guys don't like to
talk about the job too much. No, really,

it's not that.

My dad's the same way. He hates to talk
about work.

Not that he's a cop, but being a
Marine... Your dad's a Marine?

In Afghanistan.

My dad's a Marine in Iraq.

Really? I wouldn't lie about that.

Master Sergeant, Bo Brewer. Captain Tom
Graybridge.

Hard, isn't it?

The worst.

Being so far away from them.

Knowing they're risking their lives
every day. Always worrying about them.

Dreading late night phone calls. And
every single knock at the door.

And trying to watch reports on the news,
but... They're either too much to

take... Or not enough information.

That it just drives you crazy.

And then there's trying to keep in
contact.

Knowing that your emails are never
enough.

But they're all you can do because they
can't call that often. But when he does

call and I hear his voice... That's the
best thing.

Just to talk to him. And for a minute,
everything seems... Normal.

Like he's just down the street.

Yeah. Only he's not.

No.

But then the phone calls over.

And you remember where they are.

And what they're going through.

I miss my dad.

Yeah.

So do I.

So you don't have Venus' phone number?

Thanks anyway, and again, sorry to wake
you.

Good night.

No luck?

Not yet.

Well, hurry up. It's not easy to fall
asleep like this.

I have a sleeping baby in this house, so
this better be important.

Phil, hi, it's Kevin.

Kinkirk, what do you want? I was
wondering if you knew Venus' number.

Venus? Uh, might have it around here
somewhere.

Hang on.

So. So.

Uh, look, I, um...

Hello? Venus, hi.

It's Kevin.

Kinkirk. Hey, Ken Kirk.

You wouldn't know what happened to
Martin, would you? You know, the dark

rookie from tonight?

He's sitting right across from me.

Could you put him on the phone? It's
important.

Sounds like urgent police business.

Hello? Do you have any idea what time it
is? Uh, oh, it's, uh, late.

Yeah, it is.

There better be nothing going on. What
do you mean? We're just talking.

Get home now.

I'm on my way.

I have to go. So I heard.

Will I see you tomorrow night?

Uh, I don't know.

Do you have some kind of special case
you're working on?

Uh, something like that. I'd tell you
more, but I can't. I really can't.

okay. I understand.

Are you forgetting something?

Uh... Aren't you going to kiss me
goodnight?

Uh, no.

That wouldn't be right.

This was just a ride home. It wasn't a
date.

In fact, I... I love a man with a sense
of honor.

That is so rare.

Except with men like our dads, of
course.

Good night, Venus.

Good night, Martin.

I'm a little late, isn't it?

We were going to ask you the same thing.
Are you waiting up for me?

Yes, we are.

No one knew where you were.

You should have called. We were worried
about you. You shouldn't have been. I

was fine. I am fine.

I'm sorry I came home late. I'm sorry
you were worried, but Venus and I got to

talking, and I just lost track of time.

Venus, the older woman you were out
with?

Kevin told us about her.

Really? Did he also tell you this whole
thing was his fault? Whole thing?

Meaning? Nothing happened. We talked.
That's it.

It's not like I have a curfew. I know
you don't have a curfew.

You've always been responsible enough
that we never thought you needed a

You're not my... I know.

We're not your parents.

But your father trusted us with the
responsibility of making sure you stay

of trouble.

Staying out late on a school night with
an older woman, we see these things as

signs of trouble.

This has nothing to do with an older
woman. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have

school in the morning and I need to get
some sleep.

Good night.

I'd walk home last night.

Sorry.

So what happened with Venus?

I stayed out late. I came home late. The
Camdens were waiting up for me. End of

story. Sure.

End of story. You got in trouble with
the Camdens, but did you get in trouble

with Venus?

It's not like that. We just talked. You
just talked.

Sure. Oh, but get this.

She thinks we're cops.

You told her we're cops?

We were with Kevin. I guess she just
assumed we worked with him. And you

told her otherwise?

I tried, but...

I'm going to tell her. I'm going to call
her and tell her tonight.

You might get your chance sooner than
that.

What's she doing here? I don't know, but
she's headed this way.

What are you doing here?

I'm a substitute teacher. Mr. Newton's
out sick, so they called me.

What about you?

Wait.

Are you undercover?

Is that it?

NARC.

Right? Right.

NARC. Wow.

How very Starsky and Hutch.

Oh, please.

It's nothing like you see on TV. Most of
the time, our job's pretty tedious, but

when the action goes down, it's an
adrenaline rush you can't believe.

So I've heard.

Well, don't worry. Your secret's safe
with me.

I had fun last night.

Yeah, I did too.

So, call me.

You know, about tonight.

Did Kim Kirk called you looking for
Venus's number too?

I had a message on my machine from him
when I got home.

I didn't want to give him any trouble,
though.

So I didn't call him back.

Yeah, neither did I.

Clever use of the kid, though. Got to
hand it to him.

What are you talking about? Kim Kirk.

Looking for Venus late last night.

You didn't give him her number, did you?

Yeah, I did.

What? My wife had her number.

Venus babysat for us a couple of times.
I didn't see what harm could come from

it. Why do you think he wanted the
number? He didn't need a babysitter

the baby's not here yet.

Oh, come on. You don't think... She's a
minister.

He's just a lost little lamb.

He's cheating on Lucy?

Are you talking about who I think you're
talking about?

His father's counting on us. I
understand. And again, I'm sorry.

He looks up to you.

There's enough bad influences for him
out there.

How's everyone doing?

Back from your camping trip? How was it?
Oh, it was great.

I went camping with some of the guys
from the station house. You know,

who fight fires.

That's who I was camping with, firemen.

Why are you still here? Captain
Michael's called looking for you.

Gotta go.

Oh.

How was your camping trip with the guys?

Oh, it's great.

Well, I thought you were supposed to
come back last night. Yeah, one of the

wanted to stay a little longer, so we
did.

Oh, that's nice.

Oh, um, someone called for you, too.

Really? Dr. Pearson.

Isn't that your doctor, the woman Dr.
Kevin didn't like?

Huh, what'd she want?

She called to say that she had a
wonderful time with you this weekend, so

her.

Thanks.

I'm very uncomfortable when a kinkirk
lies to me. If you could lie to me about

something, then Kevin could lie to me
about something, and that's not a very

good feeling right now.

I'm sorry.

Smitty said you wanted to see me, sir.

How's everything going with Lucy?

How's everything at home?

Lucy's great.

Everything else is fine, too, except the
Camdens are giving me a hard time.

About? It's a stupid thing with Venus.

Obviously, you've already heard about
it. Eric and Annie know?

Yeah, and they're not too happy about
it. I would imagine.

I made a mistake.

I'm going to fix it. How are you going
to do that?

I'll talk to her.

I don't think you should do that.

In fact, I'm going to give you an order.

Not to talk to her or go near her.

Got it?

So you hate me, but what do you think
about Miranda, Dr.

Pearson?

Well, I only met her that one time she
filled in.

I hope you'll use her for delivery. I'd
feel more comfortable with that. She's

very professional.

While it's nice of you to worry about
things you shouldn't worry about, Kevin

and I decided to go back to our regular
doctor.

Dr. Klein?

How do you know that?

You and your doctor have been talking
about our doctor?

Kind of funny, actually. Dr. Klein is
Miranda's ex -husband.

So you really can't go back to him now.
It's a conflict of interest.

For you, maybe, but not for us.

Okay, I'll come clean and tell you the
truth since you're into that.

Your doctor's really not a nice guy.

What do you mean?

They went to med school together, they
started a practice together, they had

children together.

Now he wants us freedom, so he bought
himself some fancy condo and he's

Well, Dr. Pearson, Miranda is dating,
too. I'm the first guy she's gone out

with. So she went on a three -day out
-of -town date with you? I'm just trying

to help you guys out. How?

You don't want that sleazy ex -husband
delivering my niece, do you?

Well... Don't worry.

I'll talk to Kevin about it. I'm sure
he'll see things my way.

You know the substitute teacher in Mr.
Newton's class?

Martin's going out with her.

Really? How'd that happen?

She's hot.

I know. They met at the pool hall last
night, and he was over at her house

late. Really late.

Martin, we need to talk.

Look, I never meant for you to go off
last night with Venus.

She's older than you are, and she's much
more experienced than you are. I know

that. We didn't do anything. We were
talking.

That's it. Talking.

Good. Because if anything did happen,
that would be against the law because

you're underage.

You know what else is against the law?

Impersonating a police officer. But
thanks to you, I'm guilty of that now.

was a joke.

I figured the cop thing and the age
thing would come out naturally in the

of the evening.

Well, you figured wrong.

You're King Kirk's brother, right?

Yeah. Ben.

King Kirk him. Just waiting for Kevin. I
need to talk to him.

And this can't wait till he gets home?

That's not the kind of conversation I
want to have in front of Lucy.

Well, this isn't the kind of
conversation I want to have in front of

here.

This behavior isn't like Kevin. And
frankly, I find it quite concerning.

I hope as his brother, you're not doing
anything to encourage Kevin with this

sort of activity.

Of course not.

A person can do one wrong thing, and it
makes you start questioning his entire

character.

I've known Lucy since she was a baby.

And the thought of Kevin cheating on
her, well, there's no excuse for it.

I'll talk to him.

I've got him working tonight. I thought
it'd keep him out of trouble, give him

time to come to his senses.

But he's got to put a stop to this.

And sooner or later, he needs to tell
Lucy the truth.

Yeah, she's a stickler for that.

About last night.

If this is about my coming home late or
Venus, you don't have to bother. I've

had enough lectures for the day. I don't
want to lecture you. I just want to...

Tell me what I can and cannot do? Your
father trusts us to take care of you.

That's what I'm doing.

The only way I know how, by treating you
like my own son.

I don't want to give you the, in my
house, my rules speech.

But if you're living in my house, you
have to live by my rules.

Then maybe I shouldn't live in your
house anymore.

Look, you won't have to worry about me
much longer. I'll be just fine on my

Well, you can't just go off and live by
yourself.

Do you think your father would give you
permission to do that?

I'm going to become emancipated.

It's something my dad and I talked about
a while ago and decided not to go

through with. But now it seems like it
might be a good idea.

Emancipated? With my father overseas and
my aunt in New York, it makes sense.

I mean, what if something were to happen
to my father? What if something were to

happen to me?

I should be able to look after myself
and make decisions for myself.

Don't you need to have an income to
become emancipated? I have an income.

My mother had life insurance she put in
the trust for me.

I get a check every month. It's not a
lot, and it's been going into my

but it'll be enough for me to take care
of myself.

I know what you're going to say.

You do?

You're going to say I haven't thought
this through.

You're going to say I'm making a
mistake. You're going to say I'm too

be making all these decisions for
myself.

Believe me, I've thought about those
things.

I'm 17 years old.

In 10 months from now, I'm going to be
18.

What, in 10 months, I'm going to become
a responsible adult, but until then, I'm

just some stupid, irresponsible kid?

What is going to change in those 10
months?

Why is some arbitrary date going to make
me responsible for everything that I

do, but now I can't do anything without
the approval of my family?

Who I don't know if you've noticed isn't
exactly nearby to lend me a hand.

Or you, who I don't know if you've
noticed.

aren't exactly my family. If I need a
piece of paper to say that I'm an adult,

that I'm going to get that piece of
paper.

What are you doing?

Packing my things.

Are you moving in with your girlfriend?

What are you talking about?

I heard you're dating a substitute
teacher.

Where'd you hear that?

It's going around at school.

Mac.

She's not just a thug. She's a friend.

I'm not dating her.

So you're moving out to move in with
this friend that you're not dating?

I'm not moving in with her.

So you're just moving out?

Dad's never going to let you do this,
you know.

See you at school.

We just wanted to say good night,
Martin.

And goodbye.

We'll miss you.

Did you hear everything?

Yes. Good luck with your teacher. We
like our teacher, too.

Yeah, but we would never leave mom and
dad to date her.

I'm not dating her.

Bye, guys.

Oh, Martin, we don't want you to leave.

I'm sorry, Mrs. Kim, but I have to go.

Why does this have to be tonight?

Why can't you sleep on this for a night,
a week, or longer?

Things aren't going to change in a
night, a week, or longer.

This decision's been coming for a while.
It doesn't matter if I leave tonight,

tomorrow, next week, or in a month. I'm
still going to leave.

I might as well get it over with. Look,
I know we're not perfect, and our own

kids certainly aren't perfect.

But all families argue and confront
challenges.

Have we been so horrible to live with
that we've ever kept you from anything

wanted to do? I mean, have we ever done
anything but try to help you?

It's not that I don't want your help.
It's that I don't need your help.

Don't you think you're trying to grow up
a little too fast here, like, I don't

know, overnight?

I'm already grown up.

You think I wanted to grow up this fast?

I didn't want my mother to die. I didn't
want my dad to be fighting in a war on

the other side of the world. I didn't
want any of that.

I grew up because I had to.

Not because I wanted to.

Are you hungry?

No. Thirsty?

No. Because if you're hungry or thirsty,
I can run out and get you something,

anything. Thanks, I'm fine.

Sure I can't get you anything?

Where's Kevin? I thought he had the
night off.

Something came up. He had to work. He's
really working. I know because I talked

to Captain Michaels, and he told me he's
working, so he's not lying about

working.

He's working.

Okay. If you hear from him... At work.
Right. If you hear from him when he's at

work, would you let him know I need to
talk to him?

Sure.

What was that all about?

Nothing. Kevin's working.

Ken Kirk.

Kevin, it's me.

Lou, I'm back at the station, but I just
made an arrest. I can't talk now.

I'll call you later, okay?

Okay. Sorry.

Did you talk to Kevin when you were down
at the station this afternoon?

No, I talked with Captain Michaels, and
he told me, I swear, that Kevin's

working tonight.

Well, I know he's working. I'm just
wondering why you're making such a point

telling me that he's working.

No reason.

Where's your girlfriend doctor tonight?

Oh, I was with her the last three days.
I can't see her every night. Besides,

I'm here to spend time with you and
Kevin.

So I'm spending time with you and Kevin.

You spent the last three nights away
from me and Kevin.

Oh, I can't see you guys every night
either. I can't see anyone every single

night of my life.

That's why I'm not married.

I find it hard to believe that that's
the only reason you're not married.

No, it's true.

Do you think Kevin asked to work tonight
to get away from me?

Oh, no, no, no. Kevin is working tonight
because Captain Michaels asked him to

work tonight. Why would he ask him to
work?

I don't know. Yes, you do.

I don't, I swear.

Where are you going?

Down to the station so I can talk to
Kevin face -to -face. I'll go with you.

No, you won't.

Tenkirk. Cabot. I'm busy.

I said I'm busy.

Hello. Hi.

I was wondering when you'd call.

This weekend was great.

I thought so too.

But the funniest thing happened when I
got back.

What's that?

My ex -husband decided to come home.

He wants to give us another shot.

I thought you said he was a bad guy.

I was probably exaggerating, you know,
getting all the pent -up anger out of my

system.

But what it all comes down to is that
we're a family, and now we're back

together.

That's great.

And we have you to thank for it.

What do you mean?

When my ex picked up the kids and got
one look at you, he realized he was

So thanks.

You're welcome.

Who's that?

What are you doing here?

What's going on?

Nothing, except for me doing my job.

You should go home.

Cheating on you.

Some chick named Venus.

Lucy, wait!

Marriage is tough, isn't it?

Hello? Reverend Camden?

Martin. I'm so glad you called.

Come home. We'll talk.

I can't.

I need your help.

You can't go with Dr. Pearson or Dr.
Kwan. What?

Miranda just broke up with me to get
back together with her no -good husband,

-husband, husband, whatever.

You need a new doctor.

Sorry if I can't worry about which
doctor is going to deliver my baby.

now, I've got a plan to raise my
daughter as a single mother.

What? Kevin's cheating on me with a girl
named Venus.

You knew?

I heard a rumor about it when I was down
at the station today, but I haven't had

a chance to confront Kevin about it yet.

I confronted him.

What'd he say?

Well, I ran out before I had to listen
to any of his lies.

There's got to be an explanation.

Kevin would never do anything like that
to you. You're everything to him.

If there's one thing Ken Kirk men are,
it's loyal.

Sometimes we fib a little. Well, I do,
but Kevin doesn't. But we're loyal.

You can't even be with the same woman
every night you said to yourself.

If that's an example of Ken Kirk
loyally, what does that say about your

It's not that Kevin is a luckier man
than I am.

I've never been able to find the right
woman. When I did, she didn't see me as

the right man. But Kevin did find the
right woman. He found you.

He would never cheat on you. I don't
care what anybody says. Don't believe

You did.

Yeah, well.

Not very smart, so I had to sit with the
information a little while before I

realized it wasn't true.

Martin?

You're going to find Martin?

His friend got some bad news. She's
going to need him.

Why are you going?

Because he needs me.

I need to talk to my wife. Okay, but
after that, we need to talk about your

doctor. Get out.

What do

you want me to say?

I want you to say that the Venus rumors
aren't true. I want you to say that

you're never going to leave me and our
daughter. I want you to tell me that

you're going to love me forever.

All those Venus rumors aren't true.

I'm never going to leave you and our
daughter, and I am going to love you

forever. And I want it to be the truth.

Lucy, it is the truth.

How could you even believe something
like that?

You're a cop, and isn't she like some
type of cop groupie?

And with what everyone was saying, I
don't know.

Maybe it just felt like familiar
territory for me.

I know you're not cheating. I know you
would never cheat on me.

Just to let you know how the rumor got
started, when I was calling around

to get Venus' phone number last night to
track down Martin, the guys thought I

wanted to track her down for a different
reason.

I guess they started talking.

I swear, you guys gossip more than old
ladies.

Do you want me to go down there and tell
each and every one of them that I trust

you? Not really, no. I think I can
handle it.

Lucy, it's Captain Michaels.

Did Kevin make it home?

He did. And did he explain how
everything was all just a big

He did. And did he get to the part where
he apologizes for me for helping to

spread such a nasty rumor?

Even though in my defense, I did it only
to stop something I now know never

happened. He hasn't gotten to that part
yet.

Oh.

Well, I guess I'll apologize for myself.

Apology accepted.

Have a good evening.

Good night.

You always expect that knock on the
door.

You have to.

You hope it never comes, but you have to
expect it.

That way, whenever deployment ends and
your dad comes home,

it's such a blessing.

You thank God for every day you get to
spend with him.

Because you know it won't last.

He'll get the next call.

You spend six months, a year, two years.

Far, far away from you.

So you tell him you love him and send
him on his way.

And then you start to wait for the knock
again.

You always expect the knock.

But you're never ready for it. My father
was a casualty assistance officer in

the Marines.

He's had to knock on more doors and tell
more wives and sons and daughters and

mothers and fathers that they've just
lost loved ones than I can even imagine.

It's an awful job.

I had to...

I do it quite a few times myself, you
know, when there's been a car accident

suicide or sudden death in a family.

But the most important thing is what
happens after I leave. The people who

forward to lend a hand or a shoulder to
cry on.

You know, what you were saying earlier
is true.

In a lot of respects, you're a grown
man.

And this is your friend.

And I can go in there with you if you
want, but... She's expecting you.

Her friend whose dad is a Marine.

Can you handle it?

Think I can handle it?

It'd be easier if I hadn't lied to her.

It still wouldn't be easy.

Thanks for coming over here. You should
know by now that I'd do anything to help

my family.

5550192. My cell phone.

In case it's late and I'm not home.

You come home when she's okay or when
someone can take over for you or when

wants to be alone.

The last time I answered the door,
something terrible happened.

This probably isn't a good time for you
to be here.

I was outside.

I was waiting for them to leave.

I'm not a cop.

I'm only 17 years old.

I know.

You do?

I pretty much figured it out at school
today.

I didn't figure a narc would brag about
going out with a substitute teacher.

Oh, Mac.

Yeah.

Well, I just wanted everything to be out
in the open.

And for you to know why I'm here.

I'm here for you.

As the son of a Marine and as your
friend.

Why did he have to die?

He died with honor.

The way all Marines do.

Fighting for what they believe in.

I miss him already.
