All language subtitles for 2012 - Dark Secret

Hey, beautiful.

Oh, so it's like that today, is it? Mm
-hmm.

Well, we can do this the easy way or the
hard way.

The easy way.

Thank you.

you

No. No.

Hey, baby.

Sit here for a minute. I want to test a
new light.

I'm going to be late for class.

You know how I feel about college.

I didn't even know you went.

A waste of time.

You go to college to find the potential.

You already had it.

You're going to be my star.

Towel?

Show me what you got. There you go.

Love it.

Love it.

Love it.

Thank you.

That's just what I needed.

That's just brutal.

How could Pottery 101 be brutal?

Well, I was late, so I missed the
instructions on the new wheel.

And David insisted on shooting me, so I
was late, and I screwed up the piece

I've been working on all week.

I don't get you. You have a super
talented photography boyfriend, and all

wants to do is take pictures of you. You
always get so annoyed.

And haven't you always talked about when
you hit it big as a model?

Hello? I know, it sounds like I'm
whining.

You are whining.

I hate when he acts like he knows so
much better than me.

I don't really know the man, but he
probably does.

You know, that whole older and wiser
thing.

Yeah, well, older and wiser isn't
helping me get to know him any better.

We've been dating a few months and he
acts like he has it all mapped out.

Seriously, Marissa, do you hear yourself
right now?

A great guy wants to spend his life with
you and you're complaining?

I wish David would give Brian lessons on
being in a committed relationship.

The man should hold a clav. Maybe that
way I won't have to spend so much money

on therapy.

How's that going, by the way?

Max and I have only gone to two
individual sessions, but the group

Bree and Brian are pretty good.

The only way I get Brian to go is if I
threaten to deprive him of sex.

That works every time.

Yeah, I suffer too, but...

No long -term solution.

You should come to one of the group
sessions with us, Marissa.

I've learned more about Max in therapy
than I have in four years of dating.

Bree, we have to call Serena for a group
session with all of us.

She's only had her practice for a year,
but she's really good.

I don't know.

Therapy just seems like for the people
who are really screwed up.

No offense.

Therapy is for everything, Marissa.

Max and I are working on making our
relationship a priority.

Bree and Brian are working on
communication.

And you need to work on finding out who
David is and why a future with him

freaks you out so much.

All right.

Okay.

What are you working on?

Mackenzie proposal.

Oh.

When's it due?

Five o 'clock.

Oh.

Do you mind?

You have therapy tonight.

Nope. Cannot make it.

What do you mean you can't make it?

You said the proposal was done at five.

I set the appointment for six.

But our relationship won't if you keep
treating it like this.

I'm here.

I love you.

I'm trying to make this work.

Not hard enough.

It may be hard enough.

Are your friends coming tonight?

Marissa said she would try.

Good.

What? I thought the whole reason we were
here tonight is because of Marissa and

what's -his -head.

David.

Yes? You made it.

It was important for Marissa, so of
course we're here.

Dude, you're killing him.

Felicia?

Nice to meet you, David. Serena Daniels.

Please.

Yeah, that's Marissa.

I'm glad you both could make it.

So make yourself comfortable.

We can get started.

Marissa, David, basically the way we do
our group sessions is just very much

like a conversation.

Everything's on the table. No topic off
limits. My only rules are be respectful,

be truthful, and be kind.

Sounds good. Okay.

Is there anything in particular you
would like to talk about, baby?

It's your party. I'm just along for the
ride.

I'd like to talk about how someone knows
when they've found the one that they'd

like to commit to for life.

Jesus, you sound like Animal Planet.

The Barn Owl mates for life.

Wolves and eagles do.

So do termites and vultures.

What's your point?

Okay, I think the point is not about
mating for life. It's about knowing that

the love is real enough to sustain a
lifetime together.

Exactly. And it's a great topic of
conversation, Felicia.

Personally, I think that it's when the
person you're with is also your best

friend and you put them before work or
anything else.

But that's just unrealistic.

Why is it so much to ask that you turn
off your computer and look me in the

when you speak to me?

This is me looking you in the eyes. What
do you want me to say?

My job pays the bills. Do you want me to
just...

Ignore it because you're feeling
insecure?

I'm insecure?

You know, Felicia, I got something
really interesting from what you just

I think some part of you feels like Max
doesn't really see you anymore.

He doesn't.

If he were to close his eyes right now,
he'd have no idea what I'm wearing.

Black pants.

Too tight.

Sequin top.

Low cut. Black shoes.

Not exactly the most appropriate outfit
for the therapist.

Okay, Felicia, are you dressing this way
because he doesn't compliment you

anymore? And he doesn't comment because
he's worried that you won't like what he

has to say?

I didn't like it.

Okay, but let's just say when you were
still at home.

If he said, hey, I really love that red
top you used to wear.

Or let's just be casual tonight.

Or the way you're dressed makes me feel
like we're going to a business thing.

Well, that's just the point. He doesn't
say those things. He doesn't say

anything.

David, is this conversation amusing to
you?

I notice everything Marissa wears, and I
compliment her every day.

Is that true?

The thing is, compliments don't cost
anything.

And when they're genuine, they're
priceless.

For example, Serena, your shirt, perfect
color for your eyes.

And Bree, if I were Brian, I'd have a
hard time keeping my hands off you in

sweater. And Felicia, you can wear a
brown paper bag and still be beautiful.

That went well.

He strangled me to get to you.

Like I said.

But what I didn't say the night in that
room is how much I want you every minute

of every day.

Oh.

Huh?

I can't believe you thought I looked
trashy last night.

I didn't say that.

I said I thought you looked overdressed.

David thought I looked nice.

David said you looked good in a paper
bag.

And your precious Serena said it looked
like you were trying to get my attention

with your outfit.

Read.

Overdressed.

God, at first you say nothing. Now it's
only criticism.

That's fine.

I'll go back to saying nothing.

No.

What do you want from me, Felicia?

Honesty. No, you don't.

Of course I do.

Honesty would be me telling you you look
like you're wearing a bath mat right

now. You don't want honesty.

Hey, don't be late tonight. We have
another session with Serena.

Like hell we do.

Come on, you promised we'd work on this.

I didn't promise to be anywhere in the
same room with that piece of work your

friend is dating.

Now we're making progress, Brian.

Is this what progress looks like?

Personally, I'd rather stick my hand in
a garbage disposal.

Oh, you're so charming.

You're just mad because someone else was
right about something.

What was he right about?

David always focuses on things, even
small things.

What the hell does that mean?

Just because he complimented you on your
sweater doesn't make him the guru of

fashion. He's always telling Marissa how
beautiful she is, always giving her

compliments.

Don't confuse me with Max.

Compliments are not our issue. Yeah,
everything else is.

I'm in here. Yeah?

For what?

For your turn.

No.

You think compliments are not our issue.

They're not.

So say something nice about me.

You have a nice ass.

No I don't.

See? That's our issue.

You have no confidence in yourself.

I do.

So why don't you believe you have an
idea?

Because I know you don't believe it.

You have a great ass.

And I'm gonna fuck you.

You believe that?

Maybe.

Oh.

Hello.

Oh my God.

Well, I guess we can get started. It
doesn't look like David and Marissa are

going to make it. Good.

Why is that good, Brian?

The guy's an asshole.

Why do you say that, Brian?

Why do I say he's an asshole?

Because he goes around giving advice on
everyone else's relationship, and yet he

can't see two feet in front of him that
his own girlfriend looks like she's

ready to bolt the drop of a hat.

Interesting. Is it something you know or
something you're guessing?

Anyone with two eyes can see the girl
freaked out.

He goes around playing this suave guy
with all the answers, and it's either

bullshit, or he just doesn't care that
Marissa's ready to run.

Okay.

Max, did David say anything last session
that resonated for you?

I second Brian's statement. I think the
guy's a complete jerk that just has to

stir up trouble with other people so he
doesn't have to deal with his own crap.

What did he stir up for you?

I don't know.

Why don't you ask Felicia?

Well, I'm asking you, Max.

The bullshit about compliments has
caused a continuous fight between me and

Felicia, and frankly, I'm sick of it. If
he walked in tonight, I'd probably

leave.

Is that how you deal with difficult
situations?

Wow, you are really pushing it tonight.
You sound just like Felicia.

Does Felicia push you? Yeah, lately.

And what's your instinct when she does?

I just want to get out of there.

He said we have to work, and he just
leaves.

I usually do have to work.

But not always. Sometimes you just
leave.

I'll show you right now.

This is me leaving. No, Max.

Seriously, this is bullshit.

I'm sitting here being attacked because
I want to leave. I'm the bad guy? No,

that's your story. I wasn't bringing
good or bad into it at all.

Well, it's obvious, isn't it?

Leaving is bad.

Sticking around being miserable the rest
of your life is good.

Are your parents still married, Max?

His dad left them when he was seven.

So he feels like the bad guy every time
he leaves rather than stick around and

deal with what's going on with you guys.

Do you realize the baggage that comes
with this every time you fight?

What happened to Max?

Is he still outside?

No, he jumped in his car, peeled out
like someone came at him with a knife.

Someone did.

I've got to go home.

Come on, we'll take you.

Um, Felicia, I would like to continue
working on this with you.

Enough's enough.

Sounds like we missed something
fascinating.

She's processing some things. It's part
of making some real changes.

I'm sorry we're late.

I'm glad you guys are back.

Um, David, you made... Some interesting
insights last session. I was wondering

how they impacted you both.

Well, I thought it was really
interesting to watch you work.

The buttons you push.

This game you play is very entertaining.

It's not a game, David. These are real
people.

Real life.

They're stereotypes.

And they're here thinking they can find
the real parts to make themselves

interesting. I can't believe you would
talk about my friends that way.

Especially you. You haven't revealed a
damn thing about yourself that's real.

You want me to take you home?

No!

Well, here, take the keys.

I'll give you some time.

I apologize for what I said about this
being a game.

Your job is to bring out the
imperfection so people can polish them

them look pretty.

Somehow that doesn't sound so
flattering.

You don't need flattery.

Flattery is for shallow -veined birds
with no self -awareness.

You understand depth.

I understand you're flirting with me.

Maybe I am.

Maybe I want to peer under the
perfection to the woman beneath.

You wear your profession like armor.

But even you have cracks in ships.

They show through occasionally.

Like tonight.

And what about tonight?

You doubted yourself when you spoke to
Max and Felicia.

You were afraid you pushed too hard. I
think I did.

No, you didn't.

Trust yourself.

Trust that you're extraordinary and
brilliant and beautiful.

And that men desire you and women want
to be you.

I thought he didn't see me before, but
now Max doesn't even look at me at all.

What happened in therapy last night?

I don't know. Serena pushed him pretty
hard, and he finally admitted that he

thinks about leaving.

But you push him, too. Why do you do
that?

I don't know. I want us to be good
together.

But when you push, bad things happen.

I don't know any other way of getting
his attention.

Oh, sure you do.

Now you know that he pays attention to
what you look like, so why don't you try

to get his attention that way?

You want me to go home, put on his
favorite outfit, and basically seduce

compliments? No. No, no, we're saying
try more of a tactical switch.

Instead of pushing, try seducing him.

And instead of getting up in his face,
let him come to you.

There's always room to meet in the
middle.

God, after last night, I'd be shocked if
he ever looked at me again.

What about you?

Have you learned anything about David
yet?

Well, you think with all this talking
and sessions that I would have learned

something real about him by now?

You know, I kind of noticed he never
really shares anything personal about

himself at all.

That's what I'm saying.

So what are you going to do?

Will you guys set up another group
therapy session?

Sure. Why?

I think I know what I need to do. I
just, I don't want to do it alone.

Well, we'll be there for you.

Okay.

Thanks. I appreciate that.

That's what friends are for.

Hiya, honey.

Nice shoes.

Do you like them?

I hope you like them.

Can I see?

Very nice.

It's a little warm in here.

Mind if I join you?

May I help?

We have an appointment with Serena
tomorrow, and everyone's going to be

Everyone except me.

Come on, Brian. This is really
important.

Even the threat of no sex could get me
to do anything this weekend, Bree.

I'm wiped.

I have my attention.

If you come with me to Serena, I will
come with you right now.

What?

Oh, Marissa needs our help.

Why? What's wrong?

Something with David.

She wants us all in therapy to support
her.

You'll notice I'm not exactly jumping up
and down to go back there.

Me either.

And I'm really sorry about the way
things went down last time, but this

it's not about us. It's about Marissa.

Well, hopefully she needs our support
because she's going to tell that guy to

get lost.

You'll go?

Yeah.

I'll go.

I love you.

It's nice to see you and Max sitting
together, Felicia.

Actually, we're not here for us today.

You're not?

They came for me.

And why do you feel you need support,
Marissa?

Because I'm breaking up with David.

I think we can talk about this at home.

Actually, I want to do it here.

You're a very talented photographer,
David, and I've been incredibly

by the attention.

But I feel smothered.

Like, who I am doesn't really matter to
you, Glenn. It's just all about who you

want me to be.

You're being ridiculous, Merce. I'm in
love with you. I don't know that.

I don't know anything about you.

And I can't love what I don't know.

I'm sorry.

Give me an hour and I'll get my stuff
out of your place.

I'll help you, of course.

No, just please let me do this alone.

Whatever you want, Marissa.

I love you.

Are you okay, David?

I'll be fine.

Does it surprise you that she's leaving?

Does it surprise you?

Yeah, actually.

I didn't think she'd find the strength.

She's stronger than you think.

She's known something's been off the
entire time they've been together.

She said that to you?

We always said that you're a perfect
guy, but she's never bought into it.

always held something back.

Why would you say he's perfect?

If anything, he has all the right
answers, but I don't think he believes

the shit he says.

Thank you, Brian.

Well, it's been a lightning conversation
all around, but I'm going to be going.

Don't go home. You said you'd give
Marissa time to pack.

Felicia. You have more important things
to worry about than where I'm going.

Dude, that was unnecessary.

Go look, Max.

I have a feeling you're going to need
it.

He's going to hurt her.

He's an obsessive controller, and the
minute she's out of his control, he's

going to hurt her.

Brian, come on. Felicia, call the police
and have them meet us at Marissa's.

Take me with you. I've got to try and
talk him down.

Okay, let's go.

It's just me.

You never need to be afraid of me, baby.

I can't let you go.

Look, David, just let me go. You're not
going anywhere.

I said you're not going anywhere.

Let me go.

David, get off!

You can still turn this around, David.
It doesn't have to go this way. Just

fighting and let her go.

Your little relationship therapy
practice is a joke.

Don't turn your bullshit advice on me.

Save it for the morons who believe it.

You're smarter than everyone, right?

Use your brains. It's done.

You are finished here.

Just walk away, David.

I'm going to go down to the station and
file a report.

Are you going to be okay?

She's coming home with us.

Okay, good.

Hey, you guys were both heroes today.
Thank you.

My own private knight in shining armor.

I guess there's no such thing as a good
guy.

I'm sorry I pushed you to be with him.

Me too.

I thought you guys would still be on
autopilot.

You forced me to look at myself and my
relationship.

Yeah, look how that worked out.

Perfectly.

Now I'm free.
