All language subtitles for Beauty.in.the.Broken.2015

NARRATOR: The story of life is
like sailing, the water rushing

past the keel.
It trails ever distant,

and is all too soon more
behind us than ahead.

And with the voyage of
time fade our chances

of finding what has been
lost or ever getting

that which has never been.

Love and happiness
may be fleeting,

or elusive, or evasive,
and not always attained.

This is one of those
stories, of one life hoping

for a second chance
in the eternal quest

for love and happiness.

Loss.

There are lots of
kinds of losses.

What are some losses that you
guys might have experienced?

I lost my virginity.

Not the kind of loss I meant.

Some losses are significant,
life-changing events.

Aren't they?

MAN: Mothers, fathers,
and lost and found.

I lost my mother.

I lost my boyfriend.

I wouldn't be in this place
if she were still alive.

Here we go again.

Hey, what about the
loss-- hey excuse me.

What about the loss
that comes from being

sick with a serious
mental illness?

That kind of messes up
your life, doesn't it?

Yeah.

Since you guys have
been in this hospital,

you're all too familiar with
the problems that you have

and how you think
and how you feel.

But there's something else going
on, and it's called grieving.

Now this is something
that everyone experiences,

whether they're
aware of it or not.

And there are some
well-known stages of grief--

anger and depression.

The two most problematic.

Anger.

Woo.

This is a difficult
emotion to handle,

even if you're not sick.

Any of you guys feel
angry about your illness?

I'm not angry.

So I guess I don't belong here.

Roger, sit down.

If there's anyone who
needs to be here, it's you.

Yeah, Roger.

If we have to be here,
then you have to be here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Sit down.

Hey, chill.

Sit down, sit down,
sit down, sit.

Let's just-- let's pick
this up tomorrow, OK?

You OK, Doc?

You look a little bummed out.

Never better.

MAN (OVER INTERCOM): David,
Dr. Wallenstein wants

to talk to you on line one.

Hi, Carl.

So you know about Roger?

You better call
a case conference

and get some PRN's on it.

Yeah, yeah.

Thanks, Carl.

I'll do just that.

CARL (OVER PHONE): David,
David, everything OK?

DAVID: Yeah.

Doc, wait a minute.

How about a nice, home cooked
meal, some good company?

I don't think that's
a good idea, Sally.

I thought it was.

WOMAN (VOICEOVER): My
dearest, darling David,

I don't know when you
will find this letter,

and I hope that when you
do, enough time has passed

that you have done
your grieving and have

gotten beyond the pain.

I never want you to forget me,
but I don't want to keep you

from ever being happy again.

Can't you watch where
you're going, dude?

What, are you high or something?

I could have broken an
arm or a leg or something,

then I couldn't have worked.

Then what would I have done?

I think this is yours.

What?

Good morning.

Your favorite patient bust
out a window this morning.

Thanks.

I'll take care of it.

That's good because I
put him in your office.

I've been a bad boy, huh?

I've been sent to the
principal's office.

Roger, you're not
a kid in school,

and this isn't disciplinary.

I shouldn't be here.

I didn't do nothing.

Reality check.

You assaulted someone, which
got you into this hospital

in the first place.

Here, you hit a patient, and
you just broke out a window.

I wouldn't call that nothing.

He was listening
to my thoughts.

OK.

My mind is my mind,
if you don't mind.

Roger, that is
your illness talking.

Now the meds are going
to help with that.

But you've got to take them.

That's all part of your plan.

Goodbye, Doctor.

I'm out of here.

You don't stop, and you are
out of here, like for real.

What did you say?

I said if you
don't take your meds,

you'll be sent back
to the mental health

unit at county jail, and
from there, to state prison.

You don't play fair.

I think I do.

The decision is yours.

Frankly, in my opinion,
it's a no-brainer.

Come on.

Take the meds.

Work with me.

OK, I'll take them.

What was that?

I said I'll take them, OK?

Can I go now?

You can go.

Fuck, what am I doing?

Excuse me.

I'm looking for a
young, uh, heh, woman.

She's usually right around here.

I think that she
might be homeless.

Lots of young
women around here.

Yeah, dark hair, combat boots.

She might be an artist.

What you want with her for?

You like that homeless pussy?

You know what?

I think I made a mistake.

Hey, hey, you gonna
give up that easy?

Shit.

Man, you ain't got no bones.

You want to find her, you gonna
have to try harder than that.

Now the info you
want is a highly

confidential, sensitive data.

You know, first amendment
rights and all that shit.

Not your typical hand out,
if you get what I mean.

OK.

Listen, if you must know,
I found something of hers,

and I want to return.

You paid good money.

I'll return it for you.

Uh, yeah.

That's OK.

I think I'll do it.

Do you know where
I can find her?

You see, that's not a simple
answer when you think about it,

all the ramifications
and implications that

might go off in the universe.

You see, there I am,
right there in the middle.

If it goes down
good, I the mean.

If it goes down
bad, I'm the shit.

Oh, no, no, no.

Ain't worth the risk.

All right.

I-- I-- I give up.

Pele?

Hey, you in there.

PELE: I need a broken vase.

Come on, where are you?

Look, somebody's
looking for you.

Who's looking for me?

I don't know.

Some white dude.

Says he has something
to return to you.

You know a white boy
that's hot for you.

Was he cute?

No, he was an ugly old guy.

You know, buck teeth.

He ain't got no style
like ol' Zeek.

Ha ha Found it.

Can you take that?

This ain't broken.

Gimme it.

Now it is.

Hey, you didn't say
anything to him, did you?

Why would I do that?

This will
be absolutely perfect.

It was before,
but now it ain't.

Zeke, you need to find
the beauty in the broken.

Beauty in the broken.

Hello?

Oh, hey, Sally.

Listen, I'm driving right now.

I can't really talk.

He's taking him?

Great.

I'll be right--

Oh, my god.

Good, Randy.

The poetry therapy's
really working.

Keep it up.

If you believe,
you can achieve.

Aren't you a
little old for that?

See you tomorrow, Sally.

Hello?

Hello?

What the hell
are you doing here?

Oh, shit.

Oh, my.

You're a fucking stalker.

Aw, hey.

Take it easy.

Take it easy.

Get the hell away from here.

Oh.

You may now take your leave.

Now get the hell out
of here so I don't

have to call reinforcements.

Reinforcements?

Guys.

Guys, he's right here.

Come and get him.

Who?

What?

Ow, Jesus.

Hey, hey.

That's intentional.

Ow.

Yeah, you better run.

I miss her, Doc.

I miss her so bad.

She was the prettiest
girl I ever saw.

I couldn't stop looking at her.

It was love at first sight.

I thought I'd live the
rest of my life with her.

Love at first sight,
the world is so bright.

But it never lasts, does it?

Stan, what was she like?

The person?

I don't know, Doc.

I only saw her one time.

What?

43 years, seven
months, eight days,

14 hours, 16 minutes, and--

That's so sad,
it's almost funny.

So Stan, you never
got to know her.

I took a picture of her.

You should have
listened to her thoughts

instead of your heart.

They are never who
you think they are.

You know, that can also
work the other way around.

But you're right, you
got to get to know them.

She's been married already.

She's had kids.

She had 30 grandchildren.

She's old and fat.

Don't do this, guys.

Yeah.

Probably dead and
buried, a friggin' ghost.

You guys are cruel.

Stan.

Stan.

Say

Come on.

Stan.

Guys, guys, it's OK.

Let him go.

He needs some time alone.

He needs some time to cry.

That trash is my trash,
and you better keep

your filthy hands out of there.

No way, dude.

Once it's in the can and on a
public street, it is fair game.

MAN: Homeless are the
scourge of the city.

PELE: Oh, yeah?

And you capitalist pigs are
the rapists of this society.

POLICEMAN: Hey, we should be
able to settle this amicably,

don't you think?

PELE: No.

Miss, please.

I don't want to
have to take you in.

Oh, Jesus.

Hi, hi, hi.

Can I help?

Look, this doesn't concern
you, and you're not involved.

I'm Dr. Myers, and
this woman's a patient.

Look, we've got ordinances
in this city against loitering

and against littering.

We also seem to
have an issue here

with being a public nuisance.

So why don't you take him in
for harassing the good citizens

of this society.

OK.

OK.

Would you just stop
it for a second.

She's in a new innovative
program at the hospital

for obsessive kleptomania,
which is really,

it's an impulse control
disorder, and an inability

to try to stave off
the urge to scavenge,

which is actually a subcategory
of the main disorder, which

is to steal.

Which incidentally
enough, she's not

doing with the public trash.

The treatment for
which is basically,

a patient does it over and over
and over to endless absurdity,

so much so that they get
so sick and tired of it,

they just stop.

Anyway, thank you for
your understanding.

I'm really sorry if
she bothered you.

And you know, we'll be
taking our leave now.

We're going--

No, no.

We're not leaving that.

Yes, you are going
to leave it now.

I am not an
obsessive kleptomaniac.

I am an artist.

I know.

You want to have lunch with me?

Did you do all that just to
get me to have lunch with you?

Yeah, come on.

I'm David.

What's your name?

Let's not get too personal.

You can't smoke
a joint in here.

I've got a prescription.

Put it away.

You get your
drugs, I got mine.

Put it out.

Put it out

You know what?

You really need to relax.

What was that for?

I'm so sorry.

Hi, David.

Hi, Patty.

Let me get you some water.

Thank you.

PATTY: Of course, David.

I'll be right back.

So here we are.

Yup.

Here we are.

So have you lived on your--

where you live-- your place--
have you lived in your place

long?

What's with all the questions?

I'm just trying to
make conversation.

Oh.

Where do you live?

Um.

How do you like
all my questions?

My situation changed, so,
so, so now I live on a boat.

What happened?

Did your wife throw you out?

OK.

Patty, you know
what I would love?

A barbecue bacon cheeseburger.

You can actually just put
it on sliced white bread.

It would be more of
like, a patty melt.

All right.

And if you could just
do like, extra mayo.

Just right on there.

Lots of grilled onions.

I love grilled onions.

And you know what?

Maybe you could put an egg
on there, just right on top.

Is that going to be it?

Yeah, I think so.

And you over here?

I'll just have
the salmon burger.

OK.

Anything to drink?

Hello?

Drink?

You know, I would love a beer.

And you?

(STRAINED) I'll
take a Diet Coke.

Thank you, Patty.

What the hell was that?

What was what?

OK.

You just put your
foot in my crotch.

I don't know what
you're talking about.

Nervous?

On meds?

I mean, other than the,
uh, what do you call it?

You know, it's none of your
damn business what I'm on.

Are you always in
people's business and

telling them what to do?

Yeah, sometimes.

Great.

Don't.

You shouldn't drink
alcohol if you're

on psychotropic medication.

Judging from that
little shake you have,

you may have a touch
of tardive dyskinesia.

Hey, dah, dah, dah.

I did not let you take
me to lunch just to have

a doctor's appointment, thanks.

No, no.

I'm not a medical doctor.

I'm a psychologist.

So you guys are crazy.

I'm out of here.

No, no, no.

Wait, wait, wait.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Don't touch me.

Sorry.

I'm sorry.

It's just--

There's nothing wrong with me.

I didn't say there was.

I didn't say there was.

Just, I didn't bring
you here for anything.

So why would you
take me here anyway?

I don't know.

I t--

What does someone like you
want with someone like me?

I thought maybe--

Yes, I sure will.

Sorry.

If you think you're
do me, forget about it.

You were with
someone, weren't you?

That's why you wouldn't
have dinner with me.

I think that you've been
working here too long, Sally.

I didn't realize
paranoia was catching.

I'm not doing that.

Doc, you have to get over it.

You want to be mired
in your misery.

I do not want
to be mired in my misery.

No dates.

No women.

You want to be all alone.

You have been
working here too long.

The dinner offer's still good.

PELE: Do you drink coffee?

I mean, do you have decaf?

Jesus, what good is that?

It's like the pot without THC.

OK.

I'll have what you have.

Good.

Live dangerously.

Did you paint this?

Who do you think did it?

This is good.

No, it's not.

Yeah, it is.

I mean, there's
pathos, tension, drama.

All right.

This isn't a Rorschach test,
OK, Doctor Psychologist?

What I see is for me
to know and for you

to none of your damn business.

Tardive discombobulation?

Ha ha.

Pretty sure not.

It must me then.

Take a hit.

It'll relax you.

Mm-mm.

Do you smoke to get
high, or does it help you?

Is there a difference?

All right.

You really want to know?

Yeah.

The demons.

It keeps the demons away.

It keeps the demons away?

Haunting, horrible
things that come

at night that want to fuck me.

So now you know.

I'm sorry.

That must be awful.

It is.

Is Never told
anyone that before.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Relax.

Relax.

We all have demons.

I'm sorry.

I--

Are you serious?

I can't.

I can't.

46.

47.

Come on, David.

Come on, push, David.

Push, David.

Come on.

Give me one more.

You can do it.

Easy for you to say.

You did it last time.

Come on.

Yeah, that was last time.

This time, I'm tired.

Tired?

Why are you tired?

Who knows if I'm tired?

Look at me.

I'm old, and I'm tired,
and I keep on going.

Ouch.

You know, physical activity is
the best thing for depression.

I'm not depressed, Carl.

I'm just tired.

What do you think
about synchronicity?

Best Police album ever.

Sting is awesome.

I think he means when
seemingly unrelated

events don't happen by chance.

Like mailing a letter
and meeting someone

that you never would have met.

A door opens.

A path is revealed.

The world moves in mysterious
synchronistic ways.

And in this mysterious
synchronistic world,

does one follow the path?

There's never a simple answer.

Yeah, I heard that recently.

It cost me $10.

Make that $11.

Yeah, he got taken.

But I got a freebie for you.

Carlos Castaneda,
the great author,

once said, "Look at every
path closely, deliberately.

Turn as many times as
you feel necessary.

Then ask yourself one question.

Does the path have heart?

If it does, then it's good.

If it doesn't, then
it's of no use to you."

Does the path have heart?

Yeah.

Does the path have heart?

You should go for it.

Now, let's jam out these squats.

You are like a bad dream.

Hey, I'm good with dreams.

We can work on that.

You're very
dense for a shrink.

I feel sorry for your patients.

Yeah, me too.

OK.

Let me see how I can
put it in simple terms

that you can understand.

First, I never
wanted to meet you.

And second, I never
want to see you again.

I know I shouldn't barge in.

I know.

I know that.

I was driving by, and I just--

Mm-hm.

Mm-hm.

I thought I'd say hello.

Just driving by.

OK, great.

Yeah, hello.

Buh-bye.

No, no, no, please.

I don't want to be alone.

Please?

That was cool.

Was that rap?

OK.

Come out of here.

Let's go.

OK.

This is when they throw out
all the day old baked stuff,

all the out dated cans,
all the soggy vegetables,

all sorts of goodies.

You never know what
you're going to find.

That's the beauty of it.

Listen, you're going
to get in trouble again.

OK?

And next time, I may not
be there to help you out.

No.

They know what we're doing.

They're cool with it.

We're part of the cycle.

You know?

They throw it out.

We take it in.

Everyone's happy.

Freeganism.

Haven't you ever
heard of freeganism?

Google it.

You'll learn something.

I'm the lucky one.

I have a place.

What to come in for a while?

I got decaf.

I can't believe I'm
going to say no,

but it's been a long
day and a long night,

and I've got an early morning
meeting at the hospital.

Oh, come on.

Please?

You're killing me.

Tomorrow?

Sounds good.

I'd love too.

Hey, Zekey.

What are you doing?

Oh, you know, I noticed your
door wasn't closing right.

How you going to
keep the place up?

You know, keep the riffraff out.

I'm fine.

No worries.

You know, I should have
put some deadbolts on here

when I built it.

Don't worry.

I'll get you some
really good ones.

No, really.

I'm good.

You don't even have to bother.

Wouldn't want nothing to
happen to my little girl.

Zeke, for the millionth
time, I'm not a little girl.

I mean, you--

you is really special to me.

You got to know that?

I never felt anything like
I do for you like for--

for anybody else.

Me too, Zeke.

You're a real special friend.

That's nice.

You should get back to work.

All right.

I'll see you later, alligator.

(SCREAMING) Boo.

Oh, my god.

You scared me.

I'm sorry That's
pretty nice, isn't it?

Why are mannequins so skinny?

It's going to
look great on you.

What I got is fine.

Listen, what you got, this
whole thing is not fine.

If I want something,
I'll get something.

Where?

Out of the dumpster?

Jesus.

Are you trying to
change me or something

No.

It's just what you wear says
a lot about who you are.

You know?

I mean, certain people
take one look at you, and--

Yeah, I'm adorable.

And they're going to see--

You are adorable.

I'm me, and I'm
fine with that,

so you can go fuck yourself.

Right.

Will you--

Come on.

Thank you.

DAVID: You're gonna give some
props right now, aren't you?

Yes, I do.

I do know what I'm
talking about, don't I?

My art should in here.

Someday, maybe it will be.

How are you on the streets?

I mean, I, know you got a
place and everything, but?

I don't know.

I ran away from
home when I was 14.

That's young.

Yeah, well, you
shrinks know there's

a reason for everything, right?

Right.

Wanna talk about it?

No.

What about you?

Well, you know,
it's rare for anyone

to go through life unscathed.

I mean, it's kind of
like you said, you know?

Everybody's got something?

Do you wan to talk about it?

Not really.

Are you there's nothing
you want to talk to me about?

Yeah, that.

Oh, yeah.

That.

I'd rather not.

I think we need to, don't you?

My wife died.

She died 11 months
ago from cancer.

Really?

Fuck, I'm sorry.

Here.

Some meds. Guaranteed
to help you cope.

Doctor's orders.

Come on.

God, sunsets are beautiful.

Why doesn't the moon
set like the sun?

Maybe it's because the moon's
cold and the sun's fiery.

Kind of like you and me, huh?

Thanks.

I still don't know your name.

Pele.

My name is Pele.

That's beautiful.

Three, two, one.

Hey, Carl.

Yeah, sure.

I could use a break.

Man, the world looks so
beautiful from up here.

Yeah, it's because you can't
see what's going on down there.

You missed group today.

That's not like you.

Yeah, I know.

Overslept.

Sorry.

Well, David.

Always tired, loss of appetite,
shirking your responsibilities.

It sounds like depression.

No way, Carl.

Come on, man I am the
furthest thing you can

imagine from being depressed.

You are entering
the manic phase.

You should know this.

Can't someone be tired,
not hungry, feel good,

and it not be a clinical issue.

All right.

Well, if it's not
that, what is it then?

Does it always
have to be something?

You wanna get that?

Nah, that's OK.

It'll go to voice message.

No, it's all right.

Go ahead.

I'm good.

Go on.

Yeah?

Listen I, can't
really talk right now.

Come on.

Do you miss me?

Yeah, I miss you.

PELE (ON PHONE):

That's better.

Oh, my God. it was so
romantic last night.

Out on the beach,
under the stars.

Why don't you come over?

Oh, god.

I would love to, but I
just got in right now,

and I can't get away.

I'm working, remember?

Me too.

But you know what?

I am willing to take time
off from the dumpsters.

Come on.

I promise we'll
have a good time.

Listen, Pele.

I really can't.

You know, maybe I
don't miss you after all.

Oh, come on, Pele.

Don't be that way.

Listen, I'll call
you after work.

Yeah, don't worry about it.

Pel-- shit.

Is everything all right?

Yeah, yeah.

No, it's the call dropped.

You seem upset.

Come on.

What's wrong?

No, it's nothing important.

It's just-- look,
I've got to go.

David, we need to talk.

Listen, no.

We will.

We will.

I gotta go.

You look sexy as hell
in them jeans, baby.

You like?

I like a lot.

What dumpster they come out of?

I don't remember.

It's funny.

Just your size.

Yeah, good fine, right?

Good find.

Was the dumpster behind
the clothing store?

All right.

Someone got them for me, OK?

And why would someone
do something like that?

Do something for him?

No, I did not do
something for him.

White dude, huh?

Yeah, the white dude.

There's nothing there anymore.

He pissed me off.

It's over.

You're really done?

Yeah, like,
stick a fork in me.

Done.

Sure, sure. Got you
a nice pair a jeans, huh?

Stop.

Zeke, that's enough.

Stop.

Get off me.

Zeke, we're just friends.

Get off of me.

No, you listen to me, girl.

I take of you.

You take care of me.

No, no, nope.

is that you?

Oh, Mr. Hero.

What's going on?

Stop.

Zeke, stop.

Zeke.

You gone and done
it now, motherfucker.

Fucking stop.

This never happens again.

You understand me?

Just leave him alone.

Are you OK?

Better get your
ass up out of here.

Come on.

Fuck.

You said you
weren't coming over.

I said after work.

No, you said you'd
call after work.

And you said he
was just a friend.

He is just a friend.

You know what?

Why am I always
having to rescue you?

You don't always
have to rescue me.

Just sometimes we get
in situations where

we don't have a choice, David.

You don't always have a choice.

We always have choices, Pele.

Don't be so damned
self-righteous, dude.

You've never been
on the streets.

You don't know what it's like.

I can't live like
you doctors can.

I don't fucking
need this shit.

Wait, don't go.

I'm sorry.

Don't go.

You know, for me,
physical intimacy

is for when two people who
care about each other deeply

share themselves
because of love.

Do feel making love to me
is cheating on your wife?

Don't go there, Pele.

Please, please, don't go there.

It's really sweet.

Really.

It's really sweet.

I know you loved her.

I know you're faithful to her.

But she's gone.

She's gone now.

Pele?

She ain't there, white boy.

You know what?

I think it'd be better
for the both of us

if you get your ass out of here.

I don't think so, Zeke.

Yeah.

I think so.

You see, this is my world.

And this is Pele's.

and you ain't got
no place in it.

Is really your world, Zeke?

Hey?

It is.

Because it's pussies like you
that get more afraid of who

done three tours in Iraq.

I seen shit no man should see.

Done shit no man should do.

I'm not scared of you, Zeke.

You see, they
all go on like you go on.

Then it's back to old old Zekey.

Always back to old Zekey.

Because Zekey could've
cared for her.

Yeah, well, if old Zekey
cared about her so much,

maybe you'd let me help her.

See?

And that's what I'm afraid of.

You help her, I lose her.

No fucking way
that's gonna happen.

What's wrong?

Nothing's the matter, really.

I'm a nurse.

Don't you think I know
when someone's hurting?

What?

You need some TLC.

Listen, I know that
you care about me,

and I really
appreciate it, but--

Maybe you need
someone to talk to.

Everyone's always dumping
on you, but who do you have?

Thank you.

It's not something that I
really want to talk about.

Whoever it is and
whatever it's about,

you don't need the hurt.

Obviously, it's not
working, and I'm guessing

it's complicated and messy.

It wouldn't be that way with us.

Sally, I like you, just not
in the way that you want me to.

I'm so sorry.

I'm sorry, guys.

Do you mind if we
just skip group today?

If you could just, please?

Sure.

You sure about this?

Hey, Stan.

Sure, Doc?

How come you never
went after her?

I thought she didn't want me.

It's haunted me all of my life.

I don't wish it on anyone.

Thanks, Stan.

Look, sorry doesn't cut it.

If you can just run
out on me like that,

how can I trust that you're
going to be there for me?

I'll be there for you.

OK?

I promise.

Yeah, You and everyone else.

Look, I don't need
you or anything else.

OK.

You don't.

I get it.

But just, there's something
I want you to see.

OK?

Would you just-- would
you come with me?

No.

Please?

Why are you always
telling me what to do?

I'm not telling you.

I'm asking you.

Where are you taking me?

You'll see.

What are we doing here?

Come on.

We're gonna get in trouble.

Let's get the hell out.

No.

We're not going
to get in trouble.

Wait.

Why do you have the keys?

Who's pad is this anyway?

It's yours.

And you get to
pick the furniture.

Oh, yeah, sure.

Come on.

Will you take me home?

You cannot use the--

A real toilet, and hot
and cold running water.

You're gonna like this place.

In the bathroom?

No.

In the apartment.

It's yours.

Are you trying
to change me again?

I wouldn't think of it.

I like my place.

It's home.

I understand.

Look, even if I worked
the dumpsters night and day,

I couldn't afford this.

OK?

So let's just go.

Someday you will, when
you sell your artwork.

But for now, I'm paying for it.

No.

I will not be a kept woman.

It wouldn't be like that.

I'm out of here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

You almost ran into your easel.

What?

Your art studio.

What the hell are
you talking about?

Your easel's there.

Cabinet for your
paints and brushes.

A table for your sculptures.

Right?

I love it.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

You are such a pain in the ass.

Hi, baby.

What are you doing here?

You're happy to see me, huh?

These are for you.

Can I come in?

I'm kind of busy, so--

It's quite a place.

Yeah.

You sure have made
it out the streets.

Must be big bucks.

Now I know you ain't
got that kind of dough,

so you must be paying
for it somehow.

Yeah, I'm gonna sell
some of my paintings.

Don't you bullshit me.

He loves me, Zeke.

And I don't?

Zeke, it's different.

It's no different.

Just because I can't
afford what Dr.

Whitey can don't mean I don't.

Zeke, I'm sorry,
but it is different.

Do you love him?

Fuck.

Give me that.

Hey, stop.

Give me that.

Zeke.

(SCREAMING) Don't
call here anymore.

You get it, asshole?

Come on.

Pick up, pick up, pick up.

SALLY: Where are you going?

You have your group in 20 min?

You do it, Sally.

They'll love you.

You is my baby.

Get off me.

And you call him again,
I'm gonna kill him.

Huh?

Do you hear me?

Get off me.

Now he goes away,
one way or the other.

Pele, it's me is.

It's David.

Open it.

Pele?

Are you in there?

Please, just go away.

What do you mean, go away?

Open the door.

Pele.

PELE: Please just go away.

Who's there?

Pele, it's me.

It's David.

Oh, my god.

What are you doing here?

You can't be here.

We have to talk.

Please.

No, David.

Please just go away.

I won't.

I'm staying until
you open the door.

Fine.

So stay.

Fine.

Never had kids, did you?

No, no.

She couldn't.

I'd love to have
a little girl.

I'd make sure she was
a happy little girl.

I'm sure you would.

I mean, it doesn't
have to be a girl.

I know guys always
want to have a son.

You're not too old
for that, right?

Like, old guys can still have--

can still do all that?

Whoa, whoa.

Slow down.

I haven't had that much
fun in, uh, ever, actually.

Yeah?

Yeah.

You're pretty fun, old man.

I love your lips.

I love your neck.

Mm.

I love your breasts.

You think you can
go again, old man?

Who are you calling old man?

PELE Zeke, stop.

stop.

stop.

Following your path?

I guess you could say that.

Want to tell me about her?

There's nothing to tell.

Are you trying to rescue her?

Maybe in the beginning.

I'm gonna tell you something.

This is not "My Fair Lady."

You are not going
to make a duchess

of that crazy, pot-smoking,
homeless piece of street trash.

You know that?

You know the story
of "Pygmalion."

Jesus Christ.

Do you know this story?

I know the story.

It's a myth, David.

Pele's not a myth.

She is for real.

Yeah, so is getting
the shit beat out of you.

All I know is
she makes me laugh,

and cry, and smile,
and feel good.

She's passionate, and
she loves me, Carl.

For the first time since
Ellen died, I'm happy.

You've got to let her go, or
next time he could kill you.

David.

I've got a second
chance, Carl,

and there is no way in hell
that I'm letting that go.

I think you could work a
little harder, don't you?

Good.

I'm going to hold
you to that, OK?

OK, get out here.

And I want that list.

Oh, Oh, my god.

This is Dr. Meyers.

I got a security
breech in my office.

I need somebody as
soon as possible.

Hurry, hurry.

Doc, no.

Wait.

Stop.

I'm not going to hurt you.

I just want to talk to you.

Doc.

You all right?

Zeke.

What are you doing here?

I can't take what
this does to me anymore.

And what I did to you.

You almost killed me, and
now you want me to help you?

I don't--

I know.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

But you know how
I feel about her.

I was I was crazy jealous,
but it was the PTSD.

This would be a highly unusual
and irregular arrangement.

Hey, ain't that what
you got with Pele?

Huh?

Are you willing
to let yourself be

hospitalized, take medication?

Therapy will not be easy.

You'll have to let yourself
re-experience the traumas.

It will be emotionally painful.

Do you think you
can handle that?

I'll go to hell
and back with you.

Mm-hm.

All right?

OK.

OK.

OK.

OK?

OK.

Don't hurt me again.

OK, thank you.

OK.

OK.

OK.

Take him to the front desk
and have him see Sally.

She'll know what to do.

OK, Zeke.

Thank you.

I'm sorry, baby.

I'm sorry.

Why the fuck is Zeke here.

He wants me to treat him.

What?

How could you do that
after what he did to you?

He should be locked up.

Are you nuts?

Yeah, maybe.

But you know, we
send them over there,

and they come back
all messed up.

Somebody's got to
pick up the pieces.

You are amazing.

Mm-hm.

You'd be a good dad.

I don't know about that.

Do you want to try?

Why would you?

Would you want to have a baby?

No, that scares
the hell out of me.

Especially it's a girl.

I thought you wanted a girl.

Things happen to little girls.

What things?

I don't know.

Things.

Nothing.

Forget I said anything, OK?

Pele.

Just drop it.

Why?

Don't worry about it.

Pele.

Talk to me.

What?

There's something I
haven't told you or anyone.

Well, you told me
about the demons.

It's not about the demons.

It's about why the demons.

It's what to do about the
demons that's important.

There's nothing you
can do about them.

They never leave.

Things happen.

You can't change that.

Yeah, that's true.

You can't change what happened.

But you can change how you
feel about what happened.

Lie back.

Why?

Just lie back.

OK.

Close your eyes.

OK.

This is therapy, isn't it?

Is it gonna hurt?

No.

Take a deep breath.

Take a deep breath in, hold it.

And as you do, you feel
a wave of relaxation move

through you, from
the top of your head

all the way down to your toes.

Just feel it as you
go deeper and deeper.

OK.

Are you trying to hypnotize me?

Because I can't be hypnotized.

I was in Vegas once,
and they wanted

people to come up
on stage and get

hypnotized and do stupid stuff.

And they couldn't do it on me,
and it's not going to work.

So I would just let you--

I think you should just--

Pele. : I'm beginning to
think that you don't want

to get rid of your demons.

OK, OK, OK.

I am in your power.

I am in your power.

OK.

OK.

One more deep breath in.

OK.

You're standing at
the top of a stairway,

and you're gonna walk down the
down the steps, one by one.

And as you do, you can feel
yourself deeper and deeper,

more and more relaxed.

Let me know when you get to
the bottom of the stairs.

OK, good.

In front of you is a doorway.

Open it.

And when you pass through
it, you'll be back in time.

You'll see yourself
from a time long ago

when you were a little girl.

Perhaps it's a time
when something made

you feel very uncomfortable.

Maybe it upset you terribly.

Maybe it even hurt you.

It's OK to open that door.

Don't tell me what you see, but
I want you to observe yourself

as the person that you
are now, a knowledgeable,

intelligent, mature adult.

Have her tell you
how she's feeling.

Tell her she has every
right to those feelings.

I want you to ask
yourself, with everything

you know as a grown
up, are those feelings

helpful or useful to you now?

PELE: No.

DAVID: Right.

Those bad feelings are
no longer necessary,

and you can just let go of them.

You don't have to
keep them anymore,

and it will feel so
good to let them go.

PELE: Yes.

DAVID: Now your job is to
help her know that it was

not her fault what happened.

PELE: I was very
cute little girl.

His little princess.

DAVID: But it was no
excuse for what he did.

You were just a little girl.

And he was a big,
strong, grown up

man who beat you
and threatened you

if you didn't do what he wanted.

There was nothing you
could have done about it.

Nothing.

You fucking asshole.

I hate you.

I hate you.

There's an empty
place in my heart.

It's waiting for you.

You can live there forever.

OK.

DAVID: Notice how good it
feels to have her there.

Feel all the warm good
feelings that come with this.

And you can open your eyes.

Wow.

And then she tells me about
her abuse as a little girl.

CARL: She should see someone.

She did see someone.

CARL: Don't tell me.

OK, I want won't.

David, doctors have been
stripping their patients

since the beginning of time.

You know, there's very strict
rules about that kind of--

She's not my patient.

That's a pretty fine line.

I'd hate the ethics board
to come up against that.

It went well?

It went incredibly well.

I mean, it was
spontaneous, and she was

really ready for intervention.

I mean, we made progress.

We made such
incredible progress.

Would you mind if I
give you some advice?

If she's doing as well as
you say she is, and I have

no reason to doubt
that that's the truth,

you've got to give her
time to process it.

To see how she feels about it,
what she's going to do with it,

where she's going to go.

You have to give her that.

You know you do.

And you know what that means.

I don't think I've ever
even been on a boat before.

So this is it.

This is it.

This is where you live.

Yeah.

Have a look around.

Are you hungry?

Starving.

Dearest, darling Ellen,
thank you for freeing me.

Pele, don't.

Don't.

I did meet someone.

She's very different from you,
and I think you'd like her.

I hope so, because I love her.

There will always be a
place for you my heart.

I will always love you.

Goodbye, my darling.

David.

You know, if I had never
written her those letters, you

and I would never have met.

If she didn't die, we
never would have met.

I know.

It's OK.

It's OK.

CARL: Would you mind if
I give you some advice?

She needs time to process it.

Let her take a minute.

But you gotta let her go.

You always lived
your life reacting

to what happened to you.

I know.

Come on, let's eat.

Pele, I need you to understand
that you're different now.

You're going to see and
feel things differently.

I know, baby.

It's all good.

Can we enjoy our breakfast now?

I mean, you may not
even want me anymore.

Are you out of your mind?

Of course I want you.

I could never not want you.

It's the right thing to do, to
give it, to give us some time.

What are you saying?

I'm saying that I may not
even be on that path with you.

Are you-- are you
breaking up with me?

I'm sorry.

But I'm doing
what's best for you.

OK.

If that's what this
means, then forget it.

I need you-- just
change me back.

Just turn me back right now.

I can't.

That's not the way this works.

Listen, this is not
what I want to do.

No.

No.

You're doing what every other
man has ever done in my life.

They fuck me, and they
don't give a damn about me.

You fucked me.

I hope you're happy.

Pele, that's not it.

God, you were
like, this good guy

that actually liked me and
cared about me and respected me.

I do.

And God, through all my
faults and all my craziness.

I mean, I just had all
these broken pieces in me

that I never thought
could ever be put

back together until I met you.

You make me feel whole.

You make me feel normal.

It's o complicated.

You have to--

Goodbye, David.

Thank you for everything.

Pele.

Buddy, if you love
someone, set them free.

If they return,
it's meant to be.

Don't be a schnook.

You can't count on that.

You gotta go after her.

Thanks, buddy.

Oh, my god.

Are you OK?

This is getting to be a habit.

Yeah, it must be my karma.

I did what you told me
to do, and now she's gone.

You did what you had to do.

God, you're such a shrink.

So that we may
obtain forgiveness.

You know what?

Sometimes you just
gotta follow your heart.

Give me my crutches.

Watch the branches.

I already lost one love.

I'm not going to lose another.

There's no fucking
way that's gonna happen.

DAVID: Sometimes we
get lucky, and life

gives us a second chance.

Maybe it's happenstance, or
maybe it's synchronicity.

All we know is that
sometimes it happens.

But it happens only
if we follow our path.

And the path has heart.

All right.

It's time to go.

David.

It's time to leave.

DAVID: No.

There's great stuff in here.

Look at your shirt.

Look at that lettuce.

Perfectly fine.

It is-- all right.

Look at that.

See?

It's still good.

It is.

Should we-- all right.

Can I eat this.

You assholes.
