Hello.

Who is this?

How did you get my number?

Okay.
Well, what's going on?

It's been a long time.

Um...

Laura, is this your number?

Alright.
Can I just give you a call back?

It's just not
the best time for me.

Alright.

Mm-hmm.
Bye.

Hi.

Um, sorry about earlier.

Uh, I just wanted
to call you back

and let you know
that I will be coming.

Mm-hmm.

So, I'm gonna hit the road,

and I should be there
in a couple of days.

Yeah.
Sure.

Um...

well, maybe we can, uh,
chat again before I get there.

Um, just touch base
when I get closer.

Okay.

Uh, how's she doing?

Hey, I'm outside.

Oh. Okay.

Hi.

-Can I give you a hug?
-Sure.

-Hey, Britney.

There's someone here
I want you to meet.

Britney! Britney!

My God.
I'm so sorry.

It's just the age that she's at.

Hey!
Britney!

This is Brody.

Brody, this is Monica.

-Hey, Brody.

-Hi.

- What's their name?

-They don't have names yet.

They're just babies.

-How old are you?

-7.

-We're, um--

we're trying to find some homes
for these little guys.

Buddy?

You remember what I said
about waking them up?

-I know.
I know.

-Okay.

-I'm really -- I'm just so happy
that you're here.

I've -- I've been wondering
what you'd be like

for such a long time.

So, um, how would you like
to handle this

when we get to the house?

-I...

I'm not sure.

It's been a long time
since I've seen them.

-You ready?
-Yeah.

-Okay, here we are.

-Hmm.

-She's resting.

-This is Monica.

Monica, this is Leticia.

-Hello.
-Hi.

-Well, let's go.

-Genie?
-Here.

-Let's go see Grandma.

-Oh, hi.
Hi, dear.

Oh, give me a kiss.

-Hey.
-Hey, give me a kiss.

Oh.

I'm just so happy to see you.

-Genie.

We've brought somebody with us.

This is Monica.
-Mm.

Hi.

-Hey.

-Monica's come to help us.

-What?
What are you doing?

I told you I don't want
anybody from hospice.

-No, no. No.
Sh-- She's not from hospice.

It's okay.

-And -- And she --
-I'm not dying, Laura.

-I know. I know.

It's okay. It's okay.

-I don't need any help.
-I know.

-You know I can do things
by myself.

On my own.
-Mm-hmm.

-By myself, you know?
-Mm-hmm.

-And I have Lettie.
-Yeah, yeah.

-Are you leaving?
-No, no.

Of course, not.
-You wouldn't leave me.

-No, no, no, no.
I'm leaving for the night.

But I'll be back tomorrow,
you know?

-But I don't need any help.

-Hey.
-I don't need her.

-Genie.
-I don't want her help.

-Genie? Genie?

I promise you everything's
gonna be okay.

Okay?
Monica's just come to help us.

I promise.

Hey, Jimmy.

Um, oh, f*ck.

I'm s-- I'm sorry.

I just thought -- I know you --
I know you told me not to call.

But, um...

I'm going through a lot
right now.

And um...

I just need to talk.

I just need to talk.

I just need to hear your voice.

That's all.

I'm sorry.

Okay?

f*ck.

If you could just call me...

Just call me when you can,
please.

Um...
Okay.

I love you.

-Hey.

-I love looking
at these pictures, too.

-I was just admiring
your wedding dress.

It's so pretty.

-Oh, that was actually
your mom's.

Um, obviously, I was --
I was very honored to wear it.

But my makeup was all wrong.

And that hair, it's so bad.

-It's not so bad.

-Guys, stop running, please.

Your grandma is sick upstairs.

God, they do this
every single time we're here.

The light switch for
the kitchen is -- is over here.

It's not the most obvious
place for it.

-Oh.
I remember.

-Oh.
Yeah, of course, you do.

I'm sorry.

Um, here is
all of the medication.

I know it's --
it's a lot to take in.

But there are instructions
on each of these bottles.

Um, I have to warn you, though,
she does not like to take them.

So, that can be a little tricky.

Every phone number
you might need is up here.

Paul's cellphone,
our home phone.

That is your mom's handwriting.

She writes everything down.

-Sorry.
Laura.

-Hey. Yeah?

-She's fine now.

Mm?
-Okay.

-She just needs some time.

You know her.

-Yeah.

-I'm off.

Um, it was nice meeting you.

-Oh, you, too.

-Thank you so much, Leticia.

You get home safe, okay?
-You, too.

-Have a great night.
Bye.

-You, too.
Bye.

-That woman is an angel.

I honestly don't know what we
would do without her.

Oh, my God.
I am so tired.

Let's sit down.

Would you like to sit?

-Um, sure.

-So...

the -- the three of us

usually just trade off time
with your mom.

Um, I come around
when I can.

Paul usually comes
in the morning before work.

If there's any kind of
an emergency,

I would prefer you to call
one of us before you call

Leticia, because
she's alternating nights

between here
and with her family.

So, you know, we don't wanna
impose on her too much.

We actually found this amazing
nursing home for your mom.

It was like -- like a
five-star hotel or something.

But she didn't wanna hear
about it, did she, buddy?

She didn't wanna hear about it.

Hey, it's okay.

It's okay.
It's okay.

I mean, I don't think Paul
wanted her to go there either,

to be honest,
which I get it, you know?

This is her home,
so...

-Yeah.

-As you saw, she was, um --
she was pretty confused.

-She was.

-Um, I hope it's okay with you

that I didn't try to explain
to her who you are.

-No.

Um, it's fine.

-I just thought, you know,

that's probably an important
moment for you guys.

I didn't -- I didn't wanna
take that away from you.

I don't know what I would do
if I couldn't be

with my own mom
at a moment like this.

So, that's -- that's why
I wanted to call you.

Actually, found you myself.

-Oh.
-Yeah.

Um, but Paul's
gonna be here tomorrow.

And I think it's -- it's gonna
be really important

for you guys
to spend some time together.

The two of us have actually
been having like a little --

a little rough patch lately.

-Oh.
Well, I'm sorry.

-No, no.
That's okay.

It's gonna be fine.

Would you like to hold him?

-Oh.
Um, I could.

-Yeah.
He won't bite.

This is your Aunt Monica.

-Hi, sweetie.

-Hey, bud.

This guy's always been
very affectionate with me.

He's my little brave heart.

But this one,
he was the end of me.

No more babies now.

It's gonna be the end
of the line for this family

for a long time
I think.

Have you ever thought
of, like, adopting maybe?

-Um, sometimes.

-Yeah.

-What's that?

-That is something I've had
for a very long time.

You wanna check it out?

Actually, if you wind
that thing...

...and pull this out.

-Oh.
Don't touch those, buddy.

-You're my good girl.

-Hmm.

You're my baby.

My sweet, sweet baby.

Sweet.

-Hi.

-Hi.
-Did she poop?

-No, she didn't.
-Hmm.

Uh, I was told
to bring you these pills.

-Well, you don't have to do
that.

I don't want them.

-But these are the ones
that Laura said to give you.

-I don't take those pills.

Can you close the door, please?

Thank you.

-Mm.

Hi, baby.

Oh, you did miss me.

I know you did.

You're so sweet.

Can you give me a tip?

You know I got
what you want here.

I know what you wrote.
I know it's unique.

Good boy.

You feed that meter, honey.

Make me feel nice.

Yeah?

Okay, I can do that.

-Mama!

Mama!

-Um...

-Mama!

Mama!

Mama!

Where's my mama?

Where's my mama?

Hey.

-Where's my mama?

-Hey.

It's okay.
Shh...

-I want my -- my mother.

Please.

I want my mama.

I want my mama.
-I know.

-I want my mama.
-I'm here.

I'm here.

I'm here.
It's okay.

It's gonna be okay.

Don't cry.

It's okay.
It's okay.

-Hello?

-Hi.

-Hi.

-I made some coffee.
Do you want some?

-Uh, no.
Thank you.

Gotta say, I never would've
recognized you.

How long you gonna stay?

-However long.

I met your family.

They're lovely.

I like Laura.

And Brody.

He looks just like you.

-Yeah. He actually reminds me
more of you.

- I'm gonna go check on Mom.

-Paul.

Um...

What do the doctors say?

-Uh, I'm takin' her
later today.

I'll know more.

-And how are you doing?

-Things have been very tough
around here.

-So, how long will she be here?

-I don't know how long.

-I only want Lettie.

-Stay like this.

This light looks so lovely
on you.

-Are you filming me again?

-I am.
-Oh.

No, I'm tired.

I look awful.

-You look beautiful.

-Mm.

-You're the beautiful one.

Not me.

Not now.

-Enough of that nonsense.

I love you.

-I love you more.

I made you.

You've come out of my body.

I was the one to make you.

Listen, Paulie.

Those kids need a mother
and a father.

-You're right.

-Whatever's happening,
it's not worth it.

-Mom.

Come on.

-Family comes first.

-Please don't worry.

-I never wanna come here again.

Understood?

I-I don't care
what they say.

Promise me.

-Everything alright?

-This usually doesn't
take too long.

-She didn't recognize me.

-Well, did you expect her to?

When are you gonna tell her?

Or are you gonna tell her?

-I don't know.

-I wanna show you something.

I've been taking these videos
for us, uh, or for Benny.

Uh, this one.

-Ever since you were
a little boy,

you always got
what you wanted.

But you never wanted to ask
for permission.

You were too -- too shy.

Too polite.

So you'd always send your
brother to do your bidding.

And he'd come over to me
and say...

"Paul wants to go camping
with his pals.

Can he go?"

And I'd say,
"No, he can't go."

"Okay, I'll tell him
you said, 'Yes.'"

And he'd walk away
thinking it was funny.

And I'd find you
packed and ready.

And I'd say,
"Who told you you could go?"

And you boys would go
to bed all quiet.

You'd give me
the silent treatment.

I couldn't stand it.

And he'd come back again
in the morning.

And again, "Mama, Mama,
can Paul go?

Please let him go, Mama.

Please, please let him go."

And he wouldn't stop
until I'd finally tire out

and say, "Fine.

Let him go. Go on."

And I'd start making
a packed lunch for you.

And together,
we'd watch you go.

I never could resist him...

...and his relentless
little pleas.

You always got what
you wanted that way.

That little devil.

The house was never quiet.

-The doctor is ready for you.

-I'll show you the rest later.

-Should I come?

-Her condition is worsening.

Um, the tumor is growing,

putting additional pressure
on the brain,

which causes confusion
and limited mobility.

There is a new experimental
treatment we could try.

-Well, the last surgery
almost k*lled her,

so she doesn't wanna go through

those excruciating
procedures again.

And who could blame her?

And she doesn't wanna take
the Donze-- uh, Donzepil --

-Donepezil.
-Whatever it's called.

-Mm-hmm.
-She doesn't wanna take that.

It gives her headaches
and makes her nauseous.

So...

- Well...

Look, there really is
no sugar-coating this.

It --

-I'm sorry.

Oh.
Paul, I'll just be a minute.

I have to take this.
-Okay.

-You need to stop calling me
once and for all.

Don't make this harder
than it has to be.

Stop calling,
stop thinking about me.

-Okay, Jimmy.

Okay.

That's all you had to say.

Yeah.

-They just want the best
for you.

-Mm-hmm.
-I don't like being there.

Hmm.

-Is this sore?
I know, I know.

-Mm.

-We are done.

-Okay.
-Okay?

You ready?

-Mm-hmm.

-Monica?

Are you still there?

-Yeah.

-Do you mind helping us
with this part?

I think it's good for you
to know what we do.

Put your arms around my neck.

-Yeah.
-Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Robe, please.

-Oh.

Ah.

-Hi.

Yeah, that's what
I thought, too.

Um, so, wait.

What are your initials?

What -- I mean,
what's your name?

What do your initials
stand for?

Oh, that's cute.

Yeah.

Right.

Um...

No, actually,
I-I don't live here.

I'm just here for a while.

I'm not sure how long.

Mm-hmm.

Well, thank you.

Likewise.

So, you remember
what I told you, right?

Okay.

Yeah, that's how I feel.

Um...

So, I guess, I'll link up
with you in a bit.

How long have you been
standing there?

-Oh. I --

-Please knock or just
announce yourself.

It's the proper thing to do

when you're a guest
in someone else's house.

-Sorry.

I just came to see
if you needed anything before --

-You're all dressed up.

-Yeah.

I figured I would just step out
for a little bit.

-Well, that's good.

You know, you don't need
to stay around all the time.

I can take care of myself.

I'm sorry you've been put
in this position.

What's your name again?

Please remind me.

-Monica.

-Monica.

That's a nice name.

Is it a family name?

-No.

It's the name
I chose for myself.

-Oh.

I wish I could change
my name, too.

Eugenia means...

"born into good genes."

That's not me, clearly.

Look at me.

Mm.

I hate my name.

-Hi.
-Hi.

How beautiful you look.

-Thanks.

-Hey, love.
-Mm-hmm?

-One more thing.
Do you have somewhere

I could plug in my phone?
It's dying.

-Oh, no, honey.
I'm so sorry.

-I have nowhere to plug it
in here.

-It's okay.

Um, where's the bathroom?

Hey, hey.

Um, I'm here, at the place.

Um, it's right off the highway,
so you can't miss it.

I just wanted to check on you,

and see, uh, how far away
you are or whatever.

Um...

I will be at the bar,
drinkin' my bourbon.

And I'll see you soon.

Okay.

Bye.

-Hey, love.

Do you have somewhere
I can plug my phone in?

It's dying.

-Good one.
-I can charge your phone.

I have a charger in my truck.

-I'm sure. Um...

I'm good, though, alright?

I'm waiting on somebody.

Thanks.

Probably him.

-Hello?

Hi, Laura.

Um, hold on.

It's loud.
Let me go outside.

Okay?

Hey, uh...

I guess you're not coming.

Um...

I drove from really far away.

So, I don't know what --
what the point

of even making plans with me was
if you weren't gonna show up.

The least you could do
is f*cking call me

and tell me
that you're a coward.

I don't know why you asked me
all those questions

about my body
if you were not interested.

I'm not
your f*ckin' experiment.

f*ck.

What?

Hi.
Uh, I'm sorry about that.

Look...

I'm just --
it's been a rough week,

and, um...

that wasn't really directed --

that wasn't --
that wasn't for you.

Uh, I'm still here.
Just chillin'.

I'll be here for a little bit.

If you decide to come, cool,
you know, sh**t me a text.

Um...

I'll be here for a little...

Okay.

Hey, Jimmy.

I just wanted to call you
and tell you

that you're a f*cking coward,

and I'm stupid.

I am stupid for giving you
so much of myself for so long.

You're a taker.
That's what you are.

You're a taker.

And I actually feel sorry
for you,

because you'll never meet anyone
who will love you

the way that I loved you.

Know that.

Have a good f*ckin' life!

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah, choke me.

-I have to --
I have to go home.

Okay?

-Alright.
-Could you zip me?

-Yeah.

-Thank you.

f*cking hell.

sh*t.

Ugh.

f*ck.

f*ck!
f*ck, f*ck, f*ck, f*ck!

f*ck you!

f*ck you!

f*ck you!

Hi, Mom.

It's me.

It's me, your party girl.

Your party girl.

Hold me.

-I'm sorry.

Hey.
-Are you coming with us?

-I don't really know
how to say this,

but, uh, something's come up,

and I have to,
actually, leave.

-Is everything okay?

-Yeah.
Everything will be fine.

-Where are you going?
Are you coming back?

-Um...

no.

No. So...

But thank you.

Thank you.

Um, I'm sorry.

I have to, um --
I have to go.

But I wanted to say
thank you

for everything
that you're doing.

Thank you so much.

- Good luck.

-Yeah. Yeah.
Thank you.

-Hey.

-I don't understand.
What -- What is this?

What are you doing?

-Paul, I can't be here
right now.

I just...

I'm sorry.

Okay?

I gotta go.

-So, what, that's it?

That's all you can take?

That's all I can take.

-Being here, yes.

-Oh.

Uh, your family's lovely.

Please hug Laura
and the kids for me, okay?

Take care of yourself.
-Come on.

You...

-What?

-Whatever. Just go.

-Ah.
There it is.

All fixed up.

- f*ck.

-You ready?

Go slow.

Okay.

You'll be in your own bed soon.

-Here, I got you.

Yeah.

-Hold on.
Hold on.

-Hold on.

All good?

-Is everything okay?

-Yeah.

Everything's okay.

-Thank you.

-You guys really
let this place go, huh?

-Yeah, well, we kinda stopped
taking care of it

after Dad d*ed.

-You know, earlier today
when you ran after me...

...it reminded me of that time
on the way to school

when I had two
different kinds of shoes on.

And you ran back a whole mile
just to get my other one

and bring it to me.

You ran so fast.

-I do remember that.

I still have this image of you
in the distance,

standing there on one leg,
like a flamingo or somethin'.

-I was scared
that Dad was gonna find out

and it would be all my fault.

I used to dream about this pool
all the time, you know?

This feels like another life.

One day...

the dreams just stopped.

-Is it -- Is it true
that you slept on the streets?

-"I can no longer
be your mother."

That's what she said to me...

...when she dropped me off
at the bus station

with five minutes
to spare,

so we couldn't talk
about anything.

And that moment
is b*rned into my brain.

After that, I was
just on my own.

-There were so many times
I wanted to run away.

I used to...

fantasize about coming to find
you and living with you.

-I thought about you, too.

All the time.

Mm-hmm.

It's pretty.

You look beautiful.

-She's the beautiful one.

-Mm-hmm.

-Let's try it on her.
-You want?

-Lettie.
-No.

-Yes, some. Yes.
-Come.

Open.

Mm-hmm.

Yeah.

You look the best.

-It looks gorgeous.
-Look.

Bonita.

-Bonita, too.

-How are your grandkids?
-Mm.

-I heard your grandson is
singing at the graduation.

-He's so happy.

He's singing the, uh...

He's singing the, um --

He's singing the, um...

What's it called?
The...

-What is what called?

-Oh.
This is terrible.

It's just, I'm stupid, stupid.

Um, what is it --

What -- What --
-The -- The national anthem.

-Yes.

-Don't worry, Genie.
-That's what he's singing.

-I always forget my words, too.

-Mm.
This has grown back in.

Do you see, in here?

-Yes!
Look how full this looks.

I'm never losing it again.

Never.

-Thank you for bringing her.

Genie was my very first client.

My number-one client.

Right, Genie?
-Mm-hmm.

-What do you think?

-You look beautiful.

What?

What?

- Look at him.

How sweet.

Look at you two.

-I am so sorry about what is
happening to your mother.

-It's okay.

-You know, I have a son.

-Oh, yeah?

-He was just released.

I used to take the bus
to see him once a month.

But...

he's out now.

They just released him.

-Oh, that's good.
-Mm-hmm.

Your mother,

she helped me so much.

-Aww!
-See?

This is him.

-Oh, he has a beautiful smile.

-Mm.
-Mm-hmm.

-He is a good guy.

-Yeah, I can tell.

-Yeah.

Maybe he look tough, but...

...when I look at him,
I see my baby.

-Mm-hmm.
-Mm.

-He's lucky to have you.

-Your mother, she's lucky, too.

-She doesn't know who I am.

-You don't know that.

You know who she is.

Hmm?

-It's kinda quiet.

I should probably
go check on them.

Make sure everything's okay.

Do you mind holding him?

-Thank you.

Push!

Push, push!
Come on!

Push!
Come on, you're almost there.

Push!

Yes, yes!

One last push.

-It's a girl.

-Hm.

She's beautiful.

-What are you naming her?

-Monica.
-Aah!

-Hey!
What's going on in here?

Huh?
What are you doing?

Huh?
Are you hungry yet?

but was caught by another
it probably hadn't seen.

-Your tub is ready.

-Thanks.

Let's turn the TV off.

-Yeah, 'cause it's too scary.

Right?

-He's scared of everything.

-Yes, it is scary.

It's scary.

But not for me,
because I'm older.

-Later, I'll be older, too.

Right?
-Yes.

- Hmm.

Brody, can you help me,
please?

Just -- Just take both my hands.

Thank you.

Okay, step back a little bit.

-Got her?
-Oh, great.

He's got me.

-All right.
I'll get the door.

-On the count of three,
say, "Genie."

Ready?
One, two, three.

Genie!
-Genie!

- That's perfect. Thank you.

Now, one of the family,
if you don't mind.

Thank you.
-Sure.

-Please.
Please just leave it alone.

-No. I don't want the other kids
to tease him.

-Wow, you came a long way.
-They call him names.

-Mm.
-They're f*cking bullies.

-What do you wanna do then?
What do you wanna do?

Do you want to tell him
that he can't sing?

I don't care
what the other people think.

They don't have what he has.

-I just worry.

-Okay, well, listen...

he is who he is, okay?

So he likes to sing.

Who cares?
He's good at it.

He's practicing.

He was chosen out
of every other person.

He was chosen
to sing that song. Okay?

God. Why does everything have to

the light, please?

-Unfreeze.

Ha!

-Freeze!

-Good job!

-Hi, guys.

Aren't you tired
of carrying him?

-No.

I like being with him.

-What?

Can you stand?

-You know, I still don't know
anything about your life.

-What do you wanna know?

-You happy?

-Most days.

I'm happy to be here.

-Daddy, Monica,
look at me!

Cannonball!

-Oh!

-That was great.

-Good job.

You and Laura did a great job
with them.

Is everything all right
with you two?

-Well, I don't know.

It's complicated.

Hey, honey.
-Hey!

-Hey.

-Monica, you should jump in.

It's so nice.
-Okay.

-Here.
I can take him.

-All right.
-I got him.

-Come here.
Okay.

-Hey, Benny.
You good?

You okay?

I'm gonna take him up.

It's okay, it's okay.

-There we go.

Now...swallow.

Mm-hmm.

Swallow.

Very good, very good.

Let's give her some space.

I will go get more water.

-Let's go outside.

I'm gonna take
the kids home now.

-Okay.
Good idea.

Just call me when you get there.

-Mom, Dad!
She spit them out!

-Take him.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

-Mm...

Mm...

-How's that?
You feel better?

-Mm-hmm.

-It's time for her pills.

-Okay.
Uh, I'll handle it.

Don't worry about it.

-Sure. Okay.

-There are so many things
I want to tell you.

-Thank you so much
for staying with her.

-Hey.

This is so exciting.

-You ready, bud?
Let's go.

-I'm so excited for him.

-Me too.
-Yeah.

Brody.

Hey. Um, I wanna give you
something, okay?

I've had this a very long time.
And it's protected me.

And I want you to have it.

And it's gonna protect you
now, too, okay?

All right?
Give me a hug.

Anaconda squeeze!

-Oh! Thank you!

Listen....

when you get on the stage,
I want you to take a moment

and think to yourself as you
look at everybody, okay,

and you say to yourself,

"You lucky bastards,
here I come."

-Okay.
-All right?

And you slay that stage,
and you make a moment.

You got everything inside you.

All right? Okay.

Go get 'em.
