your fault

[Music]

that child that little boy changed my

life forever and all time

that little boy taught me the joy of

living for someone other than myself and

yet when he was killed I continued to to

sleep and wake and breathe and in my

agony and my anger I contaminated anyone

and everyone that had the misfortune to

touch me so after I demolished my

marriage I truly realized but if I

wasn't going to kill myself

I had to get on with my living so all

right

it's a sorrow without end but we don't

have to die the rest of our lives to

prove that we hurt or that we're lonely

so all right

[Music]

[Music]

blaming everything with a baby

down what Peter is saying darling it's a

Sisyphus is condemned to roll the

boulder up the mountain he has no choice

every fiber of his being to the

enterprise anyway even though I'm just

gonna roll back down I mean it's stupid

he's an idiot

because it's the effort day but that

gives meaning to our lives is that right

[Applause]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

I didn't mean this Claire I didn't do

this to hurt you

how could you do this to me after all

trusting faith I put in you how could

you do this to me there were so many

things I mean did he die too

that's not your business is it is it I'm

sorry that does none of your business do

anything you say you have ruined our

friendship

you haven't been living at home

regularly for weeks and it suddenly

dawned on you the staying out so much

might not be the best thing to do to a

kid who's become dependent on a black

woman who's not speaking so to make up

for it you want to put him in therapy

excuse me but this is not a discussion

of my living arrangements I see what is

that

an accepted way of seeing someone when

we make it pointy bill you say you are

studying at the feet of our dr. Epstein

to be al a therapist no pun intended to

help families deal with the loss of

children doesn't end up Kirti of putting

your own child in therapy with a

stranger it's gonna make him feel even

more separate if I thought that bill I

wouldn't be doing it now would I

predicting your motives Lee's not

something that I care to make book on

tell me to pay for this treatment Leslie

I want your support not your money bill

that's why I asked you to come here so

we could discuss this face-to-face

I believe well I cannot believe you send

in a child into therapy stay out of this

Clara oh you wanna mess up your own life

fine but you don't have to drag him into

it don't talk to us that way Clara I beg

your pardon mrs. huh don't you talk to

me like this I'm not your child we have

a Jamaican Saint nobody gives a damn

about your Jamaican say I stay out of

this pal

they hide a monkey climb the more he

exposed Jesus you tell her you're not

interested in her native expressions she

tells you anyway

can I ask a question but of course

what's wrong with me nothing's wrong

with you psychiatrists just help you to

understand yourself better that's all

well they get Claire to talk to me again

well he might help you to understand why

you feel like disregarding her privacy

I'll make fun of me at school always all

my friends what friends don't you see

that's part of the problem so what about

dr. Epstein can't he straighten this out

I mean look what he's done bill I swear

to god you'll leave God out of this God

would not want no part of this mess now

you want a childhood go to psychiatrist

I make sure he goes but you leave this

boy out the middle Laura I can't tell

you how much I resent your intrusion

into this then fire me mr. Hart he's not

firing anybody David

I don't believe I quite follow you David

pictures photos from old family albums

in Clara we take him out of the album

pin it on the wall and throw darts out

wait a five three one scoring system

photographs of your father right but

they were old ones when he has mustache

he hates him then you swore you won't

tell anyone what I'm confiding in you

doctor because frankly I mean if my dad

found out he'd really be obsessed yeah

I'm sure he wouldn't know I mean he

really thought he looked like a stud in

that moustache so I take it then that

you're not that crazy about your father

and what else for the two of you do

that's too close what do you things

together what she didn't ask as many

questions as you do well as our time is

up for today why don't I not ask her any

more questions then until next week

great you told that man that we throw

darts at pictures of your father

I told me at a scoring system and

everything David that was the wrong

thing to tell that man you must never

put me up against your parents not even

in jest he told me why no but I did not

mean that man must think that I love

both of your parents equally

and still ok yeah I see I don't what you

think I would said because I'm not I

just got a little overexcited well there

must be room for mistakes when you play

games such as days no I'll be more

careful next time

good cigar now David Hart we must think

of something absolutely devilish to tell

this man next week you really want to

hear this please well when when bill

gets home from work he and Leona like

like to get dressed up if you know what

hello David hi David come in sweetheart

come in

what's going on sit down David no I get

the feeling I should stand no I think

you make us all less uncomfortable if

you sit David David Peters accepted an

offer to relocate the main base force

workshops in California and it's all

very sudden but we're leaving in two

weeks

and we want you to come with us and I'd

prefer of course you live with me you

guys are joking right

no no joking would Clara be able to come

again to be a big guy Dave I'm sure

Claire doesn't expect to be burden with

you for the rest of her life very good I

think what we're saying here David is

that you're a statistic kid but each one

of us wants you to be a happy statistic

both of us your mother and I we want you

to be happy

I'm very happy dad I think we have to

reestablish it's normal a family

environment as possible for you David

and you in turn have to understand that

we're going to be a family this is

ridiculous in what way bill David

understands what we're saying which is

what building we're in an office

situation one not entirely of our own

making but we both love them and we want

what's best for them so why don't we

just give him a few days to think about

this

how's that sounding how's that sound

sweetheart not good why not see I don't

want to move with you to California and

I don't want to live with you in the

city so what do you want to do move to
