Wow, it was barely an
inch when we went in.

It's so beautiful.

It's good, it's good, it's good.

I can't feel my fingers.

Thank you.

You love that song.

Oh, Leo.

Hey, I have this theory.

Mmm-hmm.

That a girl's guaranteed to get preggers
if she does it in a car.

What?

Mmm-hmm.

I have a theory, too. My
theory is about moments.

Moments of impact.

My theory is that these
moments of impact,

these flashes of high intensity

that completely turn our
lives upside down,

actually end up defining who we are.

Thanks.

Next in line.

One of my absolute favorite moments.

Oh!

You forgot your permit.

Yeah. Well, I just sort of come here
to enjoy the two-hour line.

The permit's sort of a bonus.

The Art Institute.

You work there?

No, I'm a student.

I'm Paige.

I'm sorry. I'm Leo.

Well, thank you for this, Leo.

You know what, I noticed, in a
totally non-threatening way,

we have the same RPP zone.

Is that right?

Yup.

Hmm.

You have impressive powers
of observation.

Yes.

What's an RPP zone?

Residential permit parking zone.

Oh.

That sounds intimate.

Yeah.

Okay.

What I was thinking is that...

I think we owe it to ourselves, really,

to maybe get a drink,

out of respect for our zone
compatibility and all.

Okay. Okay?

Mmm-hmm.

All right, okay.

After you.

Pick a hand. Pick a hand. Pick a hand.

That one. Here we go.

Mmm. Mmm.

This is good.

Did you just fart?

No.

Oh.

Maybe a little.

That is so twisted.

But totally romantic.

God, I'm so in love with
you, it's insane.

As you know, your wife's CTscan

showed intracranial hemorrhaging.

We purposely keep patients with
traumatic brain injuries

in a comatose state in order
to calm their systems

and allow the brain time to heal itself
while the swelling subsides.

And then we slowly wean
them off it. Now...

The thing is, each one of
us is the sum total of

every moment that we've
ever experienced,

with all the people we've ever known.

And it's these moments that
become our history.

Like our own personal greatest
hits of memories that we play

and replay in our minds
over and over again.

Aren't you hungry?

Hey. Hi.

What you doing? Nothing.

Really? No.

What's that? Nothing.

Oh, nothing? Food's ready.

Look, if you keep feeding that fleabag,

it's gonna keep coming
back and I'm allergic.

Like you claim to be allergic
to cilantro?

I can't stand cilantro.

Exactly. But you're not allergic.

Does anybody want strawberries I
bought at the farmers' market?

Buying groceries, bad sign.

What?

And we all know what that means.

I like her.

She's like our mascot.

Thanks, I think.

I would rather have her than that ferret
you tried to make us adopt.

And she makes great coffee.
Let's keep her.

Thank you.

- Have some.
- Thank you.

"Movie"? I think you spelled
"movie" wrong.

No.

Told you.

Yes. Mmm-hmm.

I vow to help you love life,

to always hold you with tenderness,

and to have the patience
that love demands.

To speak when words are needed

and to share the silence
when they're not.

To agree to disagree
on red velvet cake.

And to live within the
warmth of your heart

and always call it home.

Wow, you set the bar kind of high.

Did you write your vows on a menu?

Yeah. Why?

I vow to fiercely love you

in all your forms, now and forever.

I promise to never forget that this
is a once-in-a-lifetime love.

And to always know in the
deepest part of my soul

that no matter what challenges
might carry us apart,

that we'll always find the
way back to each other.

Do you take each other
as spouses forever?

I do.

I do.

Then by the power vested in me
by the State of Illinois, I...

Security.

I now pronounce you man and wife
and best friends for life.

Kiss! Run!

I have one piece. One piece.

It's... It's not happening.

I don't...

Oh, my God.

You're gonna be fine.

Oh, my God. I'm gonna
have to call them.

I'm gonna have to call them

and tell them that I can't do it.

Come to bed with me.

Come on. I know you wanna
come to bed with me.

Don't!

Oh, no, please, no.

Stop it!

Okay, okay, okay.

I think this one's coming along fine.

I mean, I know it's not finished,

but I'm already starting to see a mood.

It's got like a darkening curtain
thing happening there,

and then a competing light
element, there.

Mmm-hmm.

It's abstract, but, I
mean, I don't know,

I kind of think it's already powerful.

What?

You totally love me.

Yeah, I do. Yeah.

I know because this is my piece,

and that's the scrap pile,

which I'm now saving.

Hmm.

A moment of total physical, mental,
and every other kind of love.

Don't crowd her.

She's gonna be a little groggy,

so let's just give her some space.

Hey.

It's so good to see you.

Paige?

It's okay. You're in the hospital.

You were in a car accident.

You hit your head, but you're okay.

We just kept you asleep
for a little while.

How do you feel?

My head hurts.

Yeah, well, that's perfectly normal.

I'll get you something for that.

Was anyone else hurt, Doctor?

Uh...

Paige, you know who I am, right?

Yeah. You're my doctor.

Um...

I'm your husband.

Paige?

Mr. Collins? You said things
were very good.

A brain injury isn't like a broken
bone or a laceration.

Brains are much less predictable.

Sometimes, due to the way the swelling
tissue presses against the skull,

it can cause some impairment.

Some impairment?

She doesn't remember me.

Even though she's awake, the swelling

can cause confusion or memory loss,

erratic mood swings.

What? But that's normal.

So, that's my theory.

That these moments of impact
define who we are.

But what I never considered

was what if, one day, you could
no longer remember any of them?

Hi.

What are you up to?

Sleeping.

Right.

I brought you some clothes.

Thank you.

I'm kind of hungry.

Okay.

Come on.

So, I just wanted to verify a
few things with you about me,

about us.

Great. So, we're married?

Yes. Yeah.

And I have weird hair.

I think that's taking a narrow view.

You said it takes too
long to straighten

and you'd rather use that time
to work in your studio.

My studio? Why do I have a studio?

You're an artist.

Sculptor. A really good one.

Right now, you're working
on four pieces

for the Tribune Tower lobby,

which is huge.

Everyone in town wanted
that commission.

But your show at the MCA's
12 x 12 was amazing,

so you won it.

What about my law degree?

I don't have a law degree?

I think you were

a few credits shy.

Last time I wanted to be an artist,

I was in high school.

I think you need to look
at it like a win.

Traumatic brain injury is
a win? You're an idiot.

If she doesn't remember who you are,

then she doesn't remember all
the stupid shit you ever did.

You can start over, wipe
the slate clean.

I'm just worried if she
doesn't remember you,

how's she going to remember she's
in love with you? What?

I was frankly a little stunned

she went for you the first time.

If anything, you've become
less attractive.

You guys are a great support system.

Seriously, though.

What if she doesn't remember me?

Then what?

She's gonna remember you.

She's gonna remember all of us.

We're her family.

Yeah, you're right.

Excuse me. I'm looking for
my wife, Paige Collins.

She was right over here yesterday.

Well, it looks like they moved
her up to the VIP floor.

That sounds expensive.
It's a donor's wing.

Just go down here and take the elevator

to the second floor and make a right.

Okay. Thanks.

Paige, your long-term memory
recall is intact

and I'm very optimistic the rest of your
memory is going to improve with time.

Mr. Collins, I'm so glad you're here.

This is bizarre. I'm Leo,
Paige's husband.

Do you know how disconcerting
it was to hear second-hand

that my daughter had been
in the ICU for weeks

and we hadn't been told?

You should have called us.

I'm sorry.

You've never met my parents?

I don't understand. Why
haven't you met him?

So, Doctor, now what is the next step?

The sooner she settles
back into her life,

her normal routine, the better.

Starting in a week or so,
I'm gonna recommend

that Paige see a neural psychologist.

Okay.
- Whatever she needs.

Therapy, specialists,

I'll make sure she gets the best.

You'll come home where I
can take care of you.

Mom can make up your old room,

and I can take some time off work.

I don't mean to be disrespectful,

'cause we really appreciate that,

but you just heard Paige's doctor say

that she needs to go back
to her normal routine.

Her life with me is her normal routine.

Yes, but that's a life
she doesn't remember.

She will.

That's what her doctor just
got through saying.

No. What she said was that
maybe Paige will remember.

Now, why not let her come home

and recover with people that she knows?

And loves?

We're only trying to do
the best for Paige.

That's interesting, 'cause you
haven't even asked her once.

Well, no, but... What I really
need is for everyone

to just stop bickering!

Listen, none of this needs
to be decided right now.

No. Sorry.

I think you should all head
home, get some rest.

I'm sure everyone could use it.

How is it that you're my husband

and you've never met my family?

You haven't spoken to them in years.

Why would I ever stop speaking
to my family?

It all went down before we met.

And we never talked about it?

No, we did.

So?

For starters, you wanted
to move into the city

and go to the Art Institute.

And your father insisted that
you stay in law school.

He had some pretty strict views

on what you ought to be doing.

Things just spiraled from there.

Okay. Look, what I remember
is being in law school

and being engaged to Jeremy.

I... I don't know.

Paige.

Okay, babe, babe, just, just...

The best thing to do at this point

is to go back to your life with me.

You heard what the doctor said.

It's the best thing for your recovery.

Okay, but I don't know you.

And I'm just supposed
to get in your car

and go and live at your place?

It's our place.

Without any proof of us
even being in love?

Other than our marriage?

People get married for all kinds
of different reasons.

Okay. Like?

Like for a green card.

I'm from Cincinnati.

Did I keep a journal?

No, not that I know of.

I guess this is all he could find.

Oh, well. It looks fine, honey.

I mean, we're just going home, so...

It's horrible... Paige?

I understand you're finally leaving us.

Oh, yes, that's what they tell me.

So, no driving until I
give you the say-so.

But other than that, I'm gonna
see you in four to six weeks.

All right? Thank you so much.

Thank you, Doctor, for everything.
- Thank you, Doctor.

Okay. You ready? Let's go.

Wait, hold on. I got a voicemail.

It's from before the accident.

You said you wanted evidence.

Okay, yeah. Well, let's have a listen.

Hey, baby.

Ugh. I'm sorry, I'm still at my studio.

I miss you so bad my sculptures
are starting to look like you.

So, what are you doing later?

I kind of need some Leo time,
if you know what I mean.

Yeah. Anyway, call me back.

Love you.

I don't know, I guess in
listening back to it,

it doesn't exactly prove anything.

No, no, it's...

It's cute. I mean, I sound happy.

Okay, look. Think about it.

You quit law school, you broke
off your engagement

and you moved into the city.

Those were all choices that you made,

way before you even met me.

I think that you owe it to yourself

to honor those decisions,
at least for right now.

This is a mistake, Paige.

I promise that I will take care of her.

Please, come home with
me. Come home with me.

We'll figure this out together.

I guess I could just try it out

to see if it would help
my memory and...

Mmm-hmm.

I could always come home
if I change my mind.

I married him. It must have
been for some reason.

A guarded endorsement.

But I will take it.

I look like a freak.

I think you look great.

Where do we live?

On the north side.

Who's the president?

Of the country? Yeah.

Obama.

The senator?

Yeah. You voted for him.

I did?

Welcome home.

After you.

Surprise!

Uh...

It's good to see you.

We were there every day
at the hospital,

but Leo didn't want us
to overwhelm you.

Yeah. They were. Every day.

We really missed you.

I gather we're close?

I'm Sonia. And this is
my boyfriend Kyle.

Hey, Paige.

And this is Jim.

You look great, Paige.

And Lily.

Hey. What, were you, like, working
out at the hospital?

Hey, Paige.
- And Josh.

I... Sorry, I... Excuse me.

Thank you all for coming.
I'm sorry it ended early.

It's all right. Take care, Leo.

Are you okay?

What do you think?

I know. It's a lot to take in.

No.

A lot to take in would've
been coming home,

to a strange apartment, with
a man I don't know.

That would be a lot to take in.

But coming home to all of that,

plus a house full of people

pulling on me, and hugging
me, and crying in my face,

and talking about more shit
that I don't remember,

that's not a lot to take in,
that's total bullshit.

You're right.

It was only supposed
to be a few people.

Will you please just get out?

Paige, I'm sorry.

Are you honestly not gonna
leave me alone?

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Of course.

I'm sorry.

Oh.

Oh, my God. Oh, my mother's
gonna kill me.

Good morning. Good morning.

What? You didn't knock!

It's habit. I'm sorry.

It's not like you haven't
seen it before. Come on.

This is not funny. You should knock.

I'm sorry.

You look nice.

Really?

This is about the only piece of my
clothing I feel comfortable in.

That's mine, actually.

Oh.

No, it's fine.

What? Huh?

You're looking at me like I'm
some kind of zoo animal.

Sorry, I don't know. I'm just trying

to figure this out, too, I guess.

You normally do all this?

This is my apology for last night.

That was such a bonehead move.
I just wasn't thinking.

No, please. I'm sorry. I...

I don't want you to worry
about me, okay?

Just go about your normal
routine and...

Do you work? Do you have a job?

Yeah. Well, that's if I'm
still in business.

I own a recording studio.

Hmm. Cool.

So, what is my routine?
What do I do all day?

Well...

You usually get up and make coffee.

All right. No, no, no. I got
it, I got it, I got it.

I did it this morning, I think.

And then you... Oh, no, don't.
That one's for me.

You don't eat meat.

Oh.

Then you check e-mails and pay bills.

Okay.

Which I'm betting that you don't
remember any of the passwords

or account numbers, huh? Mmm-mmm.

So, I guess I'll do that.

Okay.

And then you go down to your studio.

I could take you down there, show
you what you're working on.

You know what? We don't have to
rehash everything right now.

I mean, just...

You go to work, and we can make

flashcards later, or something.

Are you sure?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

Okay. Well, your, look...

You got keys, phone here.

If you need me, all my
numbers are on there.

Okay. Okay.

All right. Yup.

Have a good day.

What's up, Lil? Hey.

Fill me in.

That guy, Pointy Shoes? He's
a really bad kisser.

I don't think I'm gonna
keep him in rotation.

Okay.

Honestly, though, it's
actually been hell.

Yesterday, we were somehow
double-booked.

Too many clients, that's
a high-class problem.

Yeah, but with only one studio,

it's pretty impossible
to take on both gigs.

Right? So, Dune Advertising
weren't flexible

and they rebooked over at Soundspace.

Wait? What? Come on. That's
a big account.

They should always be prioritized.

You know that.

Yeah. Look...

I can't run the sessions and handle
account services, right?

This isn't a one-woman operation.

It's not like I flaked or something.

I know, I get it. I'm not mad.

I'm just... I'm just saying
shit's slipping.

Well, I'm here now.

How's she doing?

She's getting there.

She's...

Look, thanks.

It'll be fine.

Okay. Good.

So, you'll be at the 3:30 pitch?

Of course.

I'm going to head home, then
change, and check on Paige,

but I'll be there. Okay.

I vow to help you love life,

to always hold you with tenderness,

and to have the patience
that love demands.

To speak when words are needed

and to share the silence
when they're not.

To agree to disagree
on red velvet cake.

And to live within the
warmth of your heart

and always call it home.

Did you write your vows on a menu?

Weird.

I vow to fiercely love you

in all your forms, now and forever.

I promise to never forget that this
is a once-in-a-lifetime love.

And to always know in the
deepest part of my soul,

no matter what challenges
might carry us apart,

that we'll always find the
way back to each other.

Oh, hi.
- Hi.

Could I have a...

One of these?

You don't want the usual?

I have a usual?

That would be perfect.
I'll have the usual.

All right.

Here you go.

Thank you.

Thanks.

♪ You know you can't keep
letting it get you down

♪ And you can't keep dragging
that dead weight around

Paige?

much to lug around

Hello?

Hey, Lil. No, I know it's 3:30.

Look, I can't. I can't.
I gotta find Paige.

No, no. I don't know. Make it up.

I'm sorry. I didn't know
who else to call.

Get in, sweetheart. Get in.

Oh, sweetie.

You all right? Yeah.

♪ When the morning comes ♪

Hey. Hey.

Where you been? I was starting
to get a little worried.

Thought something might've
happened to you.

Sorry. I was lost, physically.

Mentally, I guess, as well.

Well, you should've called me.

Yeah, I forgot the phone

and I don't know your number by heart,

so I called my mom

and we made a day of
it, which was great.

She invited us for dinner tonight.

Dinner? Okay.

You don't have to go.

Well, you're not allowed to
drive, so I do have to go.

But that's not the point.

You know, maybe I'm gonna
wake up tomorrow

and remember everything,

but right now they're the only
thing I'm sure about.

Okay.

We'll go.

Okay.

Okay.

Are you gonna change?

Mmm. Mmm-hmm.

Changing.

It's just a left up here
at the Caldwells',

and then a right at the cul-de-sac,

and we're six houses in on the right.

Oh, the Prestleys got a
new mailbox. So cute.

You know, this arrangement
doesn't exactly say,

"I'm sorry that we haven't spoken,

"but now that I have a brain injury,

"maybe you can overlook it."

You're right.

We should've got them forget-me-nots.

That's funny.

Actually, that is funny.

So, well, you've already
met my parents,

but my dad will say to call him Bill,
but he prefers Mr. Thornton.

And my sister's name is...

Gwen.

I know a lot about your family, Paige.

Right. Yeah.

We're married. You know?

Oh, my God, you're engaged! I know.

Wow.

You guys make a really cute
couple. Oh, thanks, Paige.

Wow.

It has been forever.

Has it?

Yeah.

The weird thing is that everyone
looks a little bit older.

Really? Yeah. You, especially.

Oh, I'm... I'm so happy
to have you back.

Voilà.

In honor of Paige being home,
I made your favorite dinner.

Filet mignon.

Oh, please. Please. Sit down.

Before we start, I think this
evening deserves a toast.

Darling?

Well, I... I would like
to drink to my family.

I am so fortunate to have these three
beautiful women in my life

and, when we're all together,
that fortune just multiplies.

Paige, honey, welcome home.

To family.

To family.

So, Leo, what about your family?

Do you see them often?

No.

Oh, that's a shame.

Both my parents are dead.

It's just Paige.

She's my family now.

And what kind of work do you do, Leo?

I just opened up my own recording
studio downtown.

Paige actually convinced me
to turn it into a business.

I did?

Yeah.

Isn't that sort of a dying field?

No, I just mean, can't
people record things

on their computers at home

and they sound just as good? Ryan.

What?

Look, the records that I like,

they have life and warmth and soul.

Like the slapback on Scotty Moore's
guitar on Mystery Train.

Look, you're not gonna get
that in your computer.

You're gonna want a live room, you're
gonna want to bounce to tape.

You're gonna want real musicians in
a room, vibing off of each other.

You...

I guess, to answer your question,
it may be a dying field

and you can record high-quality
stuff at home.

But, I mean, come on,

you can't get the Sun Sessions
on your laptop.

Wow.

Wow.

Wow. Wow.

I heard everyone is gonna
be here tonight.

This kind of thing might be a
little too much for Paige.

Oh, no, I'm good here, actually.

Isn't that Diane Chain?

Yeah, we don't really hang out anymore.

God, you have been away a long time.

Oh, my God!

Good luck, man.

Hi. Hi!

Sorry. Leo, these are my friends
from high school.

This is Shana, Carrie, Lizbet.

Hi.

What about me? I don't
get an introduction?

Hi.

Hi.

Sorry, this is...

Jeremy.

It's been a long time.

Has it?

It doesn't seem like it. You
haven't changed a bit.

I'm not sure if she mentioned
it. I'm Leo.

Hi. Paige's husband.

Right. I'm gonna grab a drink.

You guys want anything?

Disaronno sour?

I'll have a blueberry mojito.

Really?

Yes, I remember.

Oh, my God, Paige.

Do you remember when we were
in the ninth grade,

and we were getting ready
for the Christmas dance,

we were curling your hair...

We ended up burning off half your hair.

I totally remember that!

And didn't I wind up having to
wear a beret to the dance?

No, no, no, that was the...

It was like she was some
sweater-set wearing,

mojito-drinking sorority girl.

Like a Stepford wife?

Yeah, basically.

She was even flirting with Jeremy
right in front of me.

Ex-fiancé Jeremy?

No, no. No.

In her mind, it's current
fiancé Jeremy.

Which is why it was probably
pretty annoying

to have her stranger husband
cock-block her all night.

That is a lot to get my mind around.

So, what turns her on?

Paige?

No, her mother.

Yes, Paige.

Like, in bed?

Oh, my God, Leo.

What? It's private. It's...

I don't know.

It's... It's kind of a between-me-and-her
kind of thing.

Hey, I'm not gonna judge.

She likes being tickled.

Seriously?

Wow. Thought you weren't gonna judge.

I'm not. I'm just... I...

I don't care if you're into kink.

It's not like that.

It just breaks her down when
she's stuck in her head.

Okay. You should give that a shot.

Seriously?

Yeah. What do you have to lose?

Hey, Lisa. Hey.

Paige?

Because I've been dealing with these people
forever and I know they have...

Something important just popped up.

I'm gonna call you right back. Okay.

Hi. Hi.

Please.

So, you remember that time at the lake,

when you told me you'd always
have my back, no matter what?

The night in the boathouse.

Mmm-hmm. Yeah.

Yeah.

So, can you please tell me
what went down with us?

Only you, Paige, can dump a guy,

then come back and demand answers.

So I dumped you?

A cruel, hard, pre-wedding dumping.

Why?

Well, that's a question that
I and all of my friends

and the two rebound girls,

yeah, we'd all love an answer to.

Come on, seriously.

I must have had some kind of reason.

You...

You... You changed.

You talked differently, you
dressed differently.

You weren't sure about
law school anymore.

And you definitely weren't
sure about me anymore.

Did I give you your ring back?

Yeah, you did.

Who has that now?

No one yet.

But I've been with Rose.

You remember? From Gwen's class.

I've been with Rose for
about a year now.

I couldn't wait forever, Paige.

You couldn't have anticipated

that I'd have a brain trauma
and forget our break-up

and come waltzing into your office

demanding answers?

What's wrong with you?

I'm sorry. I'm gonna let
you go back to work.

Sure.

Sorry. I'm sorry.

I was not expecting that.

Habit, I guess.

I honestly didn't even know where I was
headed until I found myself here.

It just seems so ridiculous to me

that I shut everyone
out for five years.

It just doesn't feel right.

Hey.

Hey. How was your day?

Uh...

It was fine.

I'm just happy to be home with you.

Sorry about the mess here.

No problem.

What, are you collaging?

Do I collage?

No, not that I remember.

No, you know, I was just so inspired

just seeing everybody last night.

To collage?

All those memories just came
flooding back to me,

so I thought I'd make a timeline,
you know, of my life.

That's... That's great.
That's a great idea.

Yeah.

I kind of rummaged through some of
your stuff. I hope you don't mind.

It's fine. It's fine.
What's mine is yours.

I even have a certificate from the
State of Illinois to prove it.

Yes, I found that. It's
in the lost years.

See, I started over here.

I found some family photos, me when
I was little, stuff like that.

That was easy to put into
chronological order

because I remember that stuff.

That's good, right?

Yeah, yeah. I guess so.

But what I've been trying to do

is pinpoint the last memory I had

before everything just went blank.

How's that going?

I think I was at the Macaroni Grill,

and I was asking them if they had
those special toasted ravioli.

And I don't remember the answer.

That's it, that's all,
that's my last memory

before I woke up in a hospital.

Oh, no. How are we ever gonna know
if they had toasted ravioli?

God, this is not happening.

It's okay.

This is not happening.

Okay? No, no, no, no,
please don't do that.

Come on. What...

What are you doing?

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. Was that... That
was one of our things?

Yeah, kind of. It... I'm sorry...

No. You don't have to say it.

You don't. I get it.
It'll all come back.

We just have to keep doing
what we're doing,

let you fall back into your life.

It'll all sort itself out.

Yeah.

About a dozen downtown businesses
were boarded up...

About a dozen downtown businesses
were boarded up...

Glass littered sidewalks, following
two nights of protests

over the police shooting of an...

Hey.

There were few people on the street.

I think I'm ready to see my studio now.

Will you show it to me?

Yeah.

Come on.

This is the first studio you've
ever had to yourself.

It's a cool space, huh? Wow.

You weren't sure you liked
it at first, though.

Until you had this idea to
burn some smudge stick

that you bought from some guy
on the corner of Diversey.

We lit this thing

and we started waving it around

until we realized that it was just
some old pieces of lettuce.

So, we're waving around burning
lettuce. I don't know.

But it must've done the trick, though,

'cause after that, I couldn't
get you out of here.

You would come in and crank your music,

and you'd get lost in a project,

and I'd have to come and remind
you that it was night-time.

This is one of your pieces for
the Tribune Tower series.

What is it supposed to be?

I'm not sure if you even knew yet.

But come here.

I...

Here, just help it figure
out what it wants to be.

Okay.

I don't... I don't really know

how to use this thing.

Sure you do. Wait, hold on.

That's better. Come on.

Just try it. It might be fun.

Can you just turn down
the music, please?

I swear you used to listen to it

so much louder than this.

I never could understand
how you would just

be able to focus...

I have a clinically bad,
goddamn headache!

Please turn down the music!

I'm trying to help you!

But I am not your punching bag.

We don't speak to each other like this.

This is hard for me, too, Paige.

Paige?

Yeah?

Hey. Hey.

I passed by that little
Portuguese bakery

that you love on the way home,

and I got us some...

Is somebody here? Yeah.

Leo. Hey.

My sister's just up to her eyeballs
with this wedding stuff,

and we've got the engagement
party coming up.

And we all thought Paige could
come home and help her out.

It just seems like the
right thing to do,

to be there for Gwen.

Okay. But what about your life here?

What about all the work that
you haven't finished?

I talked to the people at the Tribune.

And they were really understanding
about the accident,

and Dad's gonna loan me the money

to pay back their advance, so...

I don't know. I just... I can't do it.

You just come out when
you're ready, honey.

Okay, thanks, Dad.

I'm sorry. It's just until
after the wedding.

I just want you to be careful, okay?

Well, I'm not joining a cult.

I'm just going to stay with my family.

I know, but... But what?

Can I at least give you an awkward hug?

So, how are you feeling?

Mmm. I feel fine.

Yeah? No dizziness, disorientation,
sleepiness?

Nope. Great.

Well, I'm very happy, and your
CT scan looks excellent.

Oh.

What a relief. Well...

So, your memory recall, anything?

Not really.

No, huh?

That's not normal, is it?

Listen, when it comes to the
brain, nothing is normal,

because no two brain injuries
are the same.

Paige seems perfectly herself again.

It's wonderful.

Mrs. Thornton, could I just talk to
Paige alone for a moment, please?

It's okay, Mom. I'm... I'm good.

All right.

Thanks.

Paige, do you want to
regain your memory?

Yes.

Because some patients fear

that when their memory comes back,

so will the memory of the trauma,

but mercifully that's rarely the case.

Oh, no, that's not it. I'm... I'm...

I'm not afraid of the accident.

So, what are you afraid of?

I guess I just... I don't know. It's...

I mean, what if I don't like
the life that I had?

Or what if I like it too much?

I...

I just don't know.

I only did one psych rotation,

so this may be terrible advice.

But I think you have to
try and fill the holes.

You can still decide you
want a different life,

but if you don't at least

open yourself up to remembering,

I'm afraid you're gonna live
in fear of your own past.

Hey. I'm here.

These guys are?

Knife Skillz, with a Z.

Right.

Okay, Mikey, sounds amazing.
Let's just go for it.

I am going for it.

The bass line is one note.

Just one note.

Okay, cool.

Take two.

Wow.

You look different.

Yeah. Going for a Kanye kind of thing.

I'm gonna say more Michael Bublé,

but, whatever, it's still good.

Hmm.

So... I'm gonna be in
and out for a while.

Sounds really good, Mikey.

Let's just take it from the top
or the middle or wherever.

You know what? People come here
to work with you, okay?

I mean, I'm doing my best,
but you gotta be here.

I know.

But if Paige is in Lake
Forest with her family,

that's where I gotta be.

I gotta make my wife fall
in love with me again.

Oh, you found each other.
- Hi!

Hi. Let's see it.

It's good to see you. All
right, take it easy.

The countdown's on, man. Hey, man.

One week left of your former life.

How you feeling?

I feel pretty good, actually.

I mean, I do get a little dizzy

if I think about it for
too long, but...

What?

No, honey, it's like a good
dizzy. It's like...

It's like panic or excitement.

Well, panic and excitement
are different.

Honey, there's gonna
be 400 people there.

Right.

Hey, do you also have a little
tingling in your fingers?

Yeah. Is that bad?

Do you listen to Radiohead?

Uh-huh.

Thom Yorke, he talks about
dizzy spells all the time.

He says when his fingers tingle,

that's how he knows that he's
creating something genius.

And then he gets so amped up playing

that he almost passes out.

Ryan, it sounds to me like you're
on the verge of genius.

That's cool, man. Cheers.

Ooh, Ryan, I have someone
I want you to meet.

Mom, you listen to Radiohead?

Yeah. Why wouldn't I?

So, is that true?

Mmm-hmm.

Paige?

Hey, Leo.

What? Your hair.

It looks so different.

You look beautiful.

Thank you.

Okay, look, so I've been thinking
about something.

Okay.

What's your favorite book?

It's probably not what you remember.

That's fine. That's not the point.

Okay. The Beach House
by James Patterson.

No, really? Yeah.

Okay. The Beach House.

Okay, if it was great, you probably
loaned it to somebody, right?

Yeah. Gwen, I think.

Okay, and you probably
said to yourself,

"God, I wish I was the person
that hadn't read it,

"so that I could experience
it all over again."

Yeah, I guess so.

That's how I think we
should look at this.

What?

You can't remember how we met.

Mmm-hmm.

And you can't remember
how we fell in love.

And in a way, yeah, that sucks.

But it was the greatest
time of my life.

I just thought how cool it would be

to get to experience it all over again.

Like reading your favorite
book for the first time.

Exactly. Got you.

Which is why I want to
ask you out on a date.

A date?

Like two people that are just
meeting for the first time.

Jeremy...

Yeah, I'm sorry.

Well, I don't know. I mean, you know,

we've got the wedding coming up.

But if we go out before then,

you might still be able to
take me as your date.

I can't promise anything,

but I'll put in a good word for you.

All right.

Yeah? A date.

So, I have an idea, but it involves
going into the city.

You okay with that?

Yeah, that's fine.

I just have to be back by
10:00 in the morning.

Oh, my God.

What?

First date and you're already

inviting yourself to stay the night?

I'm just a little scandalized is all.

No, I just meant...

Don't worry. I'll have
you back tonight.

If you wanna stay the night, that's...

I mean, it's... If you want...

You wanna just see how
it goes? All right.

♪ You can love me foolishly

♪ Love me foolish-like

♪ Well, I wake

♪ In the morning and dress ♪

Should we get out?

We don't have to.

Is this the part of the
date where I find out

you're not actually my husband

but some crazy stalker,

and you're gonna strangle
me with my purse?

No. This is the exact parking spot

where we first met.

Oh.

I'm gonna take you on a little
retrospective of us.

Mmm.

That is so good.

You ready for dessert?

Dessert? Hmm.

We just had waffles.

Mmm-mmm. This is dinner.

These are dessert.

Well, how do you know what
flavors they all are?

It's like a chocolate Russian roulette.
It's part of the fun.

We'd be surprised by the ones we liked

and the ones we didn't.

Okay.

And...

You don't like it?

I do not like that one.

Here. Try this one. I think
you'd like this one.

Oh? Mmm.

Told you. Okay.

Your turn.

Are we going shot for shot?

Wait till you try their hot chocolate.

We would come here whenever it snowed.

Are you trying to make me
diabetic or just fat?

No, I...

You got a... It's still in your hair.

So, we come down here at night
and look at the lake?

That's not exactly what we do.

I... I'm not...

I don't...

No, no, it's not that.

We said we'd go in once
a month every month,

and we haven't done April yet.

We started in July.

Why? Why would we do that?

We were at this spaghetti place,

and we had this waiter
and he said he did it.

And he was, like, 80. So
we thought we could.

Yeah.

Now, we said no wetsuits, but...

You're serious.

...for you, I guess I'll
make an exception.

All right. Turn around.

Turn around.

Okay.

Wait. No wetsuit?

We said no wetsuits, right?

Yeah.

Oh, no.

No, no. No, no!

Come on.

Thank you.

Heat, heat.

My left eyelid's frozen shut.

I can't feel my fingers.

I can't feel them.

I don't know what your Paige
did on a first date,

but with me, you're only
getting to first base.

Okay.

I'm sorry. I can do better.

My... My lips are still numb.

It's nice.

Second base, tops.

This is perfect.

Thank you for coming
out with me tonight.

I had a really nice time.

I've missed you.

I miss our life together.
I miss being with you.

I love you.

I should probably get inside.

Good night.

Good night.

Hey.

Hey. I didn't know you
were gonna be here.

Were you out with Jeremy?

No.

I was with Leo.

I like him.

Yeah.

Me, too.

Are you okay?

Paige, I've never seen
you like this before.

I mean, is this crying
thing the new you?

Because it's bizarre.

I don't know. I don't know what's me.

I have a tattoo.

And I'm a vegetarian, too.

Look, it was just like it used to
be. It was better, actually.

Everything that I fell in love with

about Paige is still there.

You know, to you, I'm sure it seemed

like a confirmation of your love

or your marriage, right?

But to her, it probably seemed more

like a really good first date.

Exactly. Which is why I
think you've gotta wait

the requisite three days
before you call.

I gotta wait three days

to call after a date with my own wife?

At least. This is a unique
case. Maybe longer.

It can't be longer.

I'm gonna see her on Saturday
at the wedding.

I'm telling you, it was so obvious.

Even with all this crazy shit going on
around us, we still belong together.

Obvious to her or to you?

To both of us.

- Oh. Oh, Paige?
- Yeah?

We have to start writing out those
place cards after we eat.

Yes.

Before you start on that,

I have a little surprise
for you, Paige.

Oh?

You know Ray Porter, right?

He taught constitutional
law at Northwestern.

He and I were on law review together.

We've known each other 1,000 years.

He is the dean of the law school now.

Okay.

And they're gonna let you back in.

What?

Well...

I didn't even apply.

I took care of it.

This is crazy.

I feel like I'm getting
a free do-over in life.

You look like you could use a drink.

I've already had several.

But you haven't had this.

All right.

I'm glad we're having a moment alone.

I haven't gotten a chance to
really talk to you, Leo.

Yeah.

Yeah, cool.

Congratulations.

That's nice.

Yes, it is.

I've been thinking.

And I think that it's probably time
to let us take it from here.

Take what?

Things with Paige.

Look, I know she didn't have
health insurance because

you chose to live in a certain way,

and I know you must be
drowning in debt.

But I also know a way out of this.

What's that?

Divorce her.

The bills have only just begun, Leo.

Mr. Thornton, I don't think
this is the time

or the place to discuss this.

Fine. If you don't care about
losing your business,

which, clearly, you don't,

what about Paige?

What about doing what is obviously

the right thing for her?

And you know what's right for her?

As a matter of fact, I do.

You're such a hypocrite.

What did you say?

If you're such a family
man, how come I...

I never once saw you come and try

to put things back together with Paige?

You're such a coward.

Hey, can I introduce you
around a little bit?

Can't feel good to be the odd man out.

I'm not the odd man out.

All right. If you say so.

You just seem a little creepy
over here all by yourself.

I'm just waiting for Paige, man.

All right, well, best
of luck with that.

You like this, right?

I'm sorry, like what?

Paige leaves you behind.

She goes and has this life without you,

with some guy that no one gets.

And now you get to see
her reject all that.

I mean, I like it a little bit.

Yeah?

Well, let me tell you what I like.

I like the fact that Paige told me

everything about you, Jeremy.

Okay.

She told me that when she was with you,

she would wake up at night in a panic,

thinking, "Is this all there is?"

Wow.

She told you everything, huh?

Mmm-hmm.

Did she tell you that she threw herself

at me the other day?

Did she tell you that?

Or did she stop telling you everything

when she forgot who the hell you were?

Look, I get why you're
being such a dick.

You obviously love her,

and you think you're
gonna get her back.

But the thing is, she outgrew you.

What makes you think that
won't happen again?

Thank you for that advice.

I will mull it over while I'm
in bed with your wife.

Leo!

Paige, wait!

What the hell were you thinking?

I don't know. That's a
really good question,

because I have been driving
myself insane,

making a complete ass of myself!

Literally trying everything possible

to try to save what we have.

And you've been throwing
yourself at Jeremy.

That's not fair.

It's not fair?

I see the way you look at him.

I know,

because you used to look
at me that way.

Leo, I...

No, I think we need to
start being realistic.

Your memory's not coming back.

The fact is that I'm still
just a stranger.

I'm not trying to hurt you.

But I'm just...

I'm so tired of disappointing you.

I know.

I'm so sorry.

I'll apologize to Gwen and Ryan.

Oh, God, no, it's fine.

Wedding disasters have a way of
turning into great stories.

Eventually.

How do you look at the girl you love

and tell yourself it's
time to walk away?

Leo?

I hope one day I can love
the way that you love me.

You figured it out once.

You'll do it again.

Shit.

You're here, not there.

Are you okay?

I'm done.

It's over. I give up.

No, you never give up, Leo.

No, if we were meant to be together,

we would be together.

I was just thinking about
the first time

that we went to that Greek restaurant

on the corner.

There was this big banner saying

"Now Serving Soup,"

and I just started to go on and on

about all the obstacles

that the owner must have overcome

to achieve his lifelong
dream of serving soup.

And then... And when I was finished...

She didn't say anything
for a few seconds

and she just...

She just sort of exhaled it.

It was almost to herself.

"I love you."

And it just hung there.

It was the first time she had said it,

and I didn't even wanna respond.

I just wanted to keep hearing it.

That was two weeks after we met.

It only took her two weeks

to fall in love with me before.

She doesn't love me.

Sign here, please.

Come here, little buddy.

Diane?

Hey.

How are you? Listen...

I know it's been years.

I was away for a while.

I never had a chance to apologize.

I was just going through
a really weird time,

but your dad ended it

as soon as your mother confronted
him about us.

And I just always wanted
you to know that.

I don't mean to open old wounds, but...

I just really needed to
say that I'm sorry.

No, I'm really glad that
you said something.

You were always a really good friend.

I just wish I could've
returned the favor.

The lilies were bad, so I
got sunflowers instead.

I wanted to tell you.

You knew?

You knew the whole time?

I'm sorry. Don't talk to me.

Paige. Paige. Paige!

Hey, where have you been
all day, stranger?

Hmm?

Paige?

I ran into Diane Chain at the store.

That's why I left, isn't
it? Because I found out.

Mom, I barely even know who I am,

and then it turns out
you're lying to me,

and you've used my accident
to rewrite the past?

I couldn't bear the thought
of losing you again.

Do you have any idea how betrayed
I feel right now?

I'm sorry, Paige.

We were happier than
we'd been in years.

Oh, Mom!

We finally had you back again.

Back on your terms!

No!

Yes, as usual! Paige!

He cheated on you with my friend!

How could you stay with him?

I...

I was going to leave.

I was. I was all ready to leave.

And then one afternoon, I was
all alone in the house,

and I started looking at all
the photographs of you

and your...

And your sister.

And the house seemed so
full of all of us.

We were a family, Paige.

And I realized in that moment that

that was the most important
thing in the world for me.

And I couldn't, I couldn't,

I could not go.

So, you just WASPed it away?

No.

I chose to stay with him

for all the things that
he had done right

and not to leave him for the one
thing that he had done wrong.

I chose to forgive him.

Maybe Leo was right.

Maybe I can't figure out who I
am and be around all of you.

I still feel a little chilly.
I don't care what you say.

That's fine.

Paige.

I'm sorry.

Is everything okay?

Look, you two obviously need
to talk, so I'm just...

Okay. Talk to you later.

All right, bye.

I'm... I'm sorry.

What happened?

Can I ask you something?

Yeah.

You can always ask me anything.

Did you know about my dad's affair?

Yeah.

I knew.

Why didn't you tell me?

There were so many times
that I almost did.

But to drive you away from
your family again?

That just felt wrong.

I wanted your love, I...

Just not like that.

I wanted to earn it.

I just don't think I can afford
to lose them right now.

So don't.

Certain parties have sought to nullify
various congressional acts,

claiming that repeated extensions
of copyright protection

constitute a perpetual copyright

of the sort the drafters of the
Constitution would have rejected.

The United States Supreme Court,

in the 2003 case of Eldred
v. Ashcroft...

Thanks for lunch.

Actually, there's something
that I wanted to tell you.

Okay.

Things are over with Rose.

I ended it, Paige.

No. Why did you do that?

I thought you were getting engaged...

We were, but that was before you.

No, that was after me.

Okay, it was after you, but
it was before this you.

It was before the old you came back.

Jeremy, I'm not the old me.

I'm just me.

I'm just the me that's trying
to figure it out still.

I understand, but, whichever it is,

the old you or the new
you, I don't care.

I know you remember what
we were like together.

I know you do.

This is our chance to get that back.

What we had was wonderful.

Those were wonderful memories,
but those were...

Those are my only memories.

Everything after you is erased.

I...

I have to discover what it's like
to be without you, on my own.

Are you sure you don't remember

breaking up with me the first time?

Why?

'Cause it sounded a hell
of a lot like that.

Let's go.

Hey. I was looking all over.

I was worried when I didn't see
you outside the library.

So...

How's that intellectual
property class going?

Actually, I wanna talk
to you about that.

I've decided to leave law school.

And I'm gonna get an apartment
in the city.

It's happening all over
again, isn't it?

Damn it, Paige.

I've made a lot of mistakes.

Dad, this isn't about you
or anything you've done.

This is about me, who I
want to be, who I am.

Just tell me what to say, so
I don't lose you again.

You won't.

A moment of impact.

A moment of impact whose
potential for change

has ripple effects far beyond
what we can predict,

sending some particles
crashing together

making them closer than before,

while sending others spinning
off into great ventures

landing where you never thought
you'd find them.

You see, that's the thing
about moments like these.

You can't,

no matter how hard you try,

control how they're gonna affect you.

You just gotta let the colliding
particles land where they may

and wait until the next collision.

I vow to help you love life,

to always hold you with tenderness,

and to have the patience
that love demands.

To speak when words are needed

and to share the silence
when they're not.

To agree to disagree
on red velvet cake.

And to live within the
warmth of your heart

and always call it home.

Hi.

Hi.

I hope you didn't come all the way

into the city for hot chocolate.

Actually, I moved back
here six months ago.

I'm over in Rogers Park.

Really? That... That's great.

I'm actually back at the Art Institute.

What? Are you kidding me?

Mmm-mmm.

That's amazing.

Yeah. I mean, I'm sitting
in on a few classes,

and it's crazy what my hands remember

that my, you know, that my mind forgot.

Yeah.

So, thank you.

I didn't do anything.

You did everything.

You accepted me for who I am,

and not for what you wanted me to be.

I just wanted you to be happy.

That's all.

Isn't there some Cuban
place around here

where we used to go when
this place was closed?

Yeah. It's... Wait. You remember?

No, no.

I wish.

No, the memory stuff hasn't
come back, but I've...

Sonia and I have been hanging
out a little bit,

and I've been asking her about us.

Really? And what has she been saying?

That she doesn't think you're

seeing anyone right now.

She just happens to be right.

You? Are you seeing anyone?

That's good.

So, do you wanna go to the Cuban place?

With me?

Okay.

Okay.

What would you say to trying someplace

that we haven't been to before?

Someplace new?

I'd like that.

After you.

♪ I've been looking so long
at these pictures of you

♪ That I almost believe
that they're real

♪ I've been living so long
with my pictures of you

♪ That I almost believe

♪ That the pictures are

♪ All I can feel

♪ Remembering you standing
quiet in the rain

♪ As I ran to your heart to be near

♪ And we kissed as the sky fell in

♪ Holding you close

♪ How I always held close in your fear

♪ Remembering you running
soft through the night

♪ You were bigger and brighter
and wider than snow

♪ And screamed at the make-believe

♪ Screamed at the sky

♪ And you finally found
all your courage

♪ To let it all go

♪ Remembering you fallen into my arms

♪ Crying for the death of your heart

♪ You were stone white So delicate

♪ Lost in the cold

♪ You were always so lost in the dark

♪ Remembering you how you used to be

♪ Slow drowned You were angels

♪ So much more than everything

♪ Hold for the last time
then slip away quietly

♪ Open my eyes But I never see anything

♪ If only I'd thought
of the right words

♪ I could have held on to your heart

♪ If only I'd thought
of the right words

♪ I wouldn't be breaking apart

♪ All my pictures of you

♪ Looking so long at these
pictures of you

♪ But I never hold on to your heart

♪ There was nothing in the world

♪ That I ever wanted more

♪ Than to feel you deep in my heart

♪ There was nothing in the world

♪ That I ever wanted more

♪ Than to never feel the breaking apart

♪ My pictures of you ♪
