200:00:02,712 --> 00:00:04,302to make myself happy and feel better.

300:00:04,327 --> 00:00:06,904- You're gonna have to get over it.- Get over my dead husband?

400:00:06,932 --> 00:00:08,064Why the hell hadn't I thought of that?

500:00:08,100 --> 00:00:10,917Winter storm Pam shouldhit New York later today

6

00:00:10,953 --> 00:00:12,902dumping at least a foot of snow.

700:00:12,938 --> 00:00:14,671Just coordinating Mae's travel.

800:00:14,673 --> 00:00:16,773Listen, are you guys sureit's okay if she stays here?

00:00:16,808 --> 00:00:18,942- Of course.- Guess I really am my father's daughter...

1000:00:18,977 --> 00:00:20,827They way I'm acting because Leo died

1100:00:20,879 --> 00:00:23,883and the way Dad was acting because yourmom was pressuring him to be with her.

1200:00:23,908 --> 00:00:25,958- Who told you that?- George.

1300:00:26,868 --> 00:00:28,501We need to talk.

2/57

00:00:28,537 --> 00:00:30,503I know, I ate all the hummus.

1500:00:30,539 --> 00:00:32,722I'll restock you guys before I leave.

1600:00:32,758 --> 00:00:34,758It's not that. It's...

1700:00:34,793 --> 00:00:36,347I have a couple ofquestions about something

1800:00:36,372 --> 00:00:39,299- you mentioned the other day about Dad.- Oh. What's up?

1900:00:39,324 --> 00:00:42,509Remember how you said Olivia was

pressuring him to get back together?

2000:00:42,534 --> 00:00:44,517Uh, I think so.

2100:00:44,569 --> 00:00:47,287Well, I mentioned that to Natalie,and she says that her mom's been in

2200:00:47,322 --> 00:00:48,940

a serious relationship for years.

2300:00:49,708 --> 00:00:51,207Huh.

2400:00:52,404 --> 00:00:54,320Did you know Marco?

2500:00:54,345 --> 00:00:57,029I mean, if you've known

Olivia and Natalie this long,

2600:00:57,249 --> 00:00:59,049you must have crossed paths at some point.

2700:00:59,144 --> 00:01:01,022Uh, I mean...


3/57

2800:01:02,137 --> 00:01:04,287Yeah, now that I think of it, I...

2900:01:04,323 --> 00:01:08,777Yeah, I... I do remembera guy who was around Olivia.

3000:01:10,062 --> 00:01:13,296Maybe Natalie didn't know hermom still had feelings for Dad?

3100:01:15,574 --> 00:01:17,250How sure are you about this Olivia thing?

3200:01:17,302 --> 00:01:18,918I'm really not.

3300:01:18,943 --> 00:01:21,077

Um, it was so long ago, I'm just guessing.

3400:01:21,613 --> 00:01:23,479S... sorry. I wish I could be more helpful.

3500:01:24,242 --> 00:01:27,777And there was nothing else goingon with Dad during that time?

3600:01:27,813 --> 00:01:30,680

Uh, just the usual: Pressures from work.

3700:01:30,682 --> 00:01:33,783I know his editor was all overhim about finishing that spy novel.

3800:01:35,463 --> 00:01:37,321I thought you didn't know about the book.

3900:01:39,891 --> 00:01:42,926

Oh, sorry. This is from, uh, the airline.

4000:01:42,961 --> 00:01:45,712I'm flying out after dinner with Mae.

4100:01:45,764 --> 00:01:47,115I really need to...


4/57

4200:01:47,140 --> 00:01:48,681- Hello, April.- Hi, Mae.

4300:01:48,706 --> 00:01:51,561George, did you get thequart-sized bags for the toiletries?

4400:01:51,586 --> 00:01:53,370- I did.- Thank you.

4500:01:53,422 --> 00:01:56,639And since the airline is tellingme that our flight is on time,

4600:01:56,692 --> 00:01:58,358I really should start packing soon.

4700:02:00,245 --> 00:02:01,544You haven't packed yet?

4800:02:28,640 --> 00:02:31,776Sync and corrections by Albandawww.Addic7ed.com

4900:02:36,231 --> 00:02:37,480I think he's lying.

5000:02:37,482 --> 00:02:39,199I really do.

5100:02:39,234 --> 00:02:41,534It's not that out there for George to lie,

5200:02:41,570 --> 00:02:44,571as the person who'sexistence he denied for years.

5300:02:44,623 --> 00:02:48,374Well, technically, hedidn't deny your existence.

5400:02:48,410 --> 00:02:49,626No one asked him.

5/57

00:02:49,661 --> 00:02:51,294Hey, Bren, isn't the role

5600:02:51,329 --> 00:02:53,379of the documentarian to remain objective?

5700:02:53,415 --> 00:02:56,299I'm reinventing the genre,

5800:02:56,334 --> 00:02:58,435and it doesn't sound likeUncle George is lying.

5900:02:58,470 --> 00:03:00,437It sounds like he just got his facts wrong.

6000:03:01,473 --> 00:03:03,389When I first told him about the book,

6100:03:03,425 --> 00:03:06,176he acted like he didn'teven know it existed,

6200:03:06,228 --> 00:03:08,611and then today, he just happens to remember

6300:03:08,647 --> 00:03:12,348Dad being stressed out about turninghis spy novel in on time? I...

6400:03:12,350 --> 00:03:15,401Yeah, not to mention the lie he toldabout my mom still wanting our dad.

6500:03:15,783 --> 00:03:17,064I have a question,

6600:03:17,089 --> 00:03:19,456but, April, you can't

get mad at me for asking.

6700:03:19,491 --> 00:03:22,609If you think I'm gonna get mad atyou for asking a question, then...

6800:03:22,661 --> 00:03:24,410You're turning the camera off first.


6/57

6900:03:24,446 --> 00:03:28,123I do not need Berkeley's summerfilmmaking program this up in my business.

7000:03:28,700 --> 00:03:30,283Okay, fine.

7100:03:33,705 --> 00:03:35,572Are you sure

7200:03:35,607 --> 00:03:38,241George said that he didn'tknow there was a book?

7300:03:38,276 --> 00:03:41,261I mean, you've been goingthrough a lot lately.

7400:03:41,296 --> 00:03:44,098It's possible you mighthave just remembered wrong.

7500:03:45,584 --> 00:03:47,617And I knew that you would get mad at me,

7600:03:47,652 --> 00:03:50,637but, seriously, what is there left to hide?

7700:03:50,689 --> 00:03:54,040What is more of a secretthan a secret family?

7800:03:54,517 --> 00:03:56,788I mean, two secret families?

7900:03:56,929 --> 00:03:58,060Dude!

8000:03:58,085 --> 00:03:59,863Why would George go to all the trouble

8100:03:59,865 --> 00:04:01,932to keep another family from us,

8200:04:01,967 --> 00:04:03,750


7/57

after we found out about Natalie?

8300:04:03,803 --> 00:04:05,178Okay, listen.

8400:04:05,178 --> 00:04:07,428Everyone in that bookwas based off of one of us

8500:04:07,464 --> 00:04:09,514or someone we know,

8600:04:09,549 --> 00:04:11,382except for one character.

8700:04:11,451 --> 00:04:13,151- The woman at Langley.- Yes,

8800:04:13,186 --> 00:04:15,153and he focused a lot of the story on her,

8900:04:15,188 --> 00:04:16,616so who's she based on?

9000:04:16,641 --> 00:04:18,556Oh, I know.

91

00:04:18,608 --> 00:04:22,443She's based on Dad'ssecret sister. That's it.

9200:04:22,479 --> 00:04:25,363And she's in cahoots with Uncle George

9300:04:25,398 --> 00:04:28,616who's not this amazingdoctor, but, no, a spy,

9400:04:28,652 --> 00:04:30,468who's a part of this whole

9500:04:30,504 --> 00:04:34,050world-wide secret family conspiracy.

9600:04:35,342 --> 00:04:38,110


8/57

That's how crazy you guys sound.

9700:04:39,329 --> 00:04:40,411Whatever. I want to reread that part

9800:04:40,463 --> 00:04:42,297- of the book about her.- Me too.

9900:04:42,332 --> 00:04:45,770Okay, well write me apostcard from crazy town.

10000:04:45,795 --> 00:04:47,829I hear it's beautifulthere this time of year.

10100:04:51,508 --> 00:04:55,183Hey, Beth. Wow, it's really

coming down out there.

10200:04:55,884 --> 00:04:58,919April didn't tell me you were coming over.

10300:04:59,266 --> 00:05:01,316Oh, I... I kind of didn'ttell her that I was.

10400:05:02,402 --> 00:05:04,102

You two still haven't spoken?

10500:05:04,154 --> 00:05:06,154No, so I just decided

10600:05:06,189 --> 00:05:08,523to show up in the middle of asnowstorm like an insane person.

10700:05:08,575 --> 00:05:11,159

You're not insane. You're a good friend.

10800:05:11,194 --> 00:05:12,327April's upstairs.

10900:05:12,900 --> 00:05:14,700April's right here.


9/57

11000:05:16,449 --> 00:05:17,733Everything okay?

11100:05:18,535 --> 00:05:21,336- You haven't replied to my texts.- What? I replied.

11200:05:21,371 --> 00:05:23,851April, a bitmoji doesn't count.

11300:05:23,876 --> 00:05:25,042It said, "all good."

11400:05:25,184 --> 00:05:27,342Okay. Uh...

11500:05:27,377 --> 00:05:29,260Then I guess I'll just, uh...

11600:05:29,296 --> 00:05:31,513Head back out into thefreezing cold, and...

11700:05:31,538 --> 00:05:32,597No! Please don't.

11800:05:32,632 --> 00:05:36,434As your surrogate Boston mother,

I'm not letting you leave.

11900:05:36,469 --> 00:05:38,002George is flying home later,

12000:05:38,054 --> 00:05:40,754and we're gonna have an earlydinner, maybe some games.

12100:05:41,308 --> 00:05:42,772

- Okay.- Okay.

12200:05:45,111 --> 00:05:47,211Or... sorry. Is that all good?

12300:05:47,596 --> 00:05:49,680Of course. All good.


10/57

12400:05:57,157 --> 00:06:00,692Well, Berkeley is sucha great school, Brenna.

12500:06:00,744 --> 00:06:02,026You have the grades,

12600:06:02,078 --> 00:06:04,746and I bet you the summer programwould really help with admissions.

12700:06:04,781 --> 00:06:06,798Mom, stop. I'm not going to college.

12800:06:06,850 --> 00:06:09,934I'm only going to Berkeley for thesummer, and that's only if I get in.

12900:06:09,970 --> 00:06:12,904Well, if you're new film is anything likethe one you premiered in Northeastern,

13000:06:12,906 --> 00:06:15,673- it's a shoe-in.- What did you premier?

13100:06:15,709 --> 00:06:17,675Uh, that film I did with Ford.

13200:06:17,677 --> 00:06:20,745The next one I'm making isdocumentary style about our family,

13300:06:20,780 --> 00:06:22,780so bring on the drama.

13400:06:22,782 --> 00:06:25,273Oh, that'll be no problem.

13500:06:25,298 --> 00:06:29,134Not too much, though. I don'twant it to be unrealistic.

13600:06:29,806 --> 00:06:32,323Well, you know, I love documentaries.


11/57

13700:06:32,375 --> 00:06:34,242I can't stop watching My 600-lb life.

13800:06:34,294 --> 00:06:35,662It makes me feel so tiny.

13900:06:35,687 --> 00:06:38,588That's not a documentary.That's a reality show.

14000:06:38,623 --> 00:06:40,507Yeah, it's the same thing.

14100:06:41,643 --> 00:06:44,360Mae, how was your presentation at Columbia?

14200:06:44,362 --> 00:06:47,330I've never felt so popular. There

were 11 people in the audience.

14300:06:47,365 --> 00:06:49,632It's because there is less than adozen experts in the entire world

14400:06:49,634 --> 00:06:51,301who can understand her research.

14500:06:53,438 --> 00:06:55,421

Hey, maybe we should start thinkingabout getting to the airport?

14600:06:55,457 --> 00:06:57,340Yeah, it might take a littlelonger in this weather.

14700:06:57,342 --> 00:06:59,259Sara, thank you so muchfor your hospitality.

14800:06:59,311 --> 00:07:00,343- You're very welcome.- Uncle George?

14900:07:01,613 --> 00:07:04,247Before you leave, can I getthat manuscript back from you?


12/57

15000:07:04,249 --> 00:07:07,050Well, actually, I'm still reading it.Can I mail it to you when I'm done?

15100:07:07,085 --> 00:07:09,102You still haven't finished half of a book?

15200:07:09,137 --> 00:07:13,189He's been a little busy gettingApril into her trial and everything.

15300:07:13,241 --> 00:07:14,874I've had a few distractions.

15400:07:14,926 --> 00:07:16,125Hey, George,

15500:07:16,127 --> 00:07:18,625

you promised we'd play atleast one game before you left.

15600:07:20,065 --> 00:07:22,031Okay. Okay, one game.

15700:07:22,067 --> 00:07:23,783Pick one.

15800:07:23,835 --> 00:07:25,969

I remember packing yourboard games at the apartment.

15900:07:26,004 --> 00:07:29,689Oh, um, maybe they're in one ofthe boxes in my room. I'll go check.

16000:07:29,741 --> 00:07:31,483Maybe you can find a ouija board up there.

161

00:07:31,508 --> 00:07:33,424We can ask Dad a few questions.

16200:07:45,863 --> 00:07:48,064Why is everything wet?

16300:08:03,783 --> 00:08:06,199Got you a little something to


13/57

17300:08:34,155 --> 00:08:35,872Actually, I'm going to Baltimore first.

17400:08:35,907 --> 00:08:36,923What's in Baltimore?

17500:08:37,910 --> 00:08:39,092You know, just research stuff.

00:09:23,305 --> 00:09:25,972I thought it could be fun for usall to play, and I can't find it.

19200:09:26,024 --> 00:09:27,357No, I think Grandma stole it.

19300:09:27,893 --> 00:09:30,543She took Balderdash too.

19400:09:31,363 --> 00:09:32,693What's going on?

19500:09:33,331 --> 00:09:35,932Just thinking about dad.

19600:09:35,950 --> 00:09:37,200What about him?

19700:09:38,367 --> 00:09:41,435The more I think about it, the moreI have this nagging feeling that...

19800:09:41,954 --> 00:09:44,543When he said goodbye tome for the last time...

19900:09:45,525 --> 00:09:48,292It's like he knew it was the last time.

20000:09:48,317 --> 00:09:50,267When we look back

20100:09:50,292 --> 00:09:52,697on big moments from our past

20200:09:52,784 --> 00:09:55,785we don't always remember themexactly the way they happened.

20300:09:56,124 --> 00:09:57,824No.

20400:09:58,409 --> 00:10:00,309He was so emotional.

205


16/57

00:10:00,625 --> 00:10:03,776He cried. Dad never cried. I mean...

20600:10:06,765 --> 00:10:08,983Do you remember why he went to Baltimore?

20700:10:10,652 --> 00:10:12,335No, I don't.

20800:10:12,370 --> 00:10:14,637He traveled so much.

20900:10:14,672 --> 00:10:18,658Honey, really, this is not amystery that needs to be solved.

21000:10:18,693 --> 00:10:21,617Your father was a complicatedman, to say the least.

21100:10:23,415 --> 00:10:28,484And I think there's a danger of your notbeing present in your own life right now.

21200:10:30,372 --> 00:10:35,291And all the things that could be excitingabout it, and all the people who love you,

21300:10:35,326 --> 00:10:39,754

because you're focusing somuch on someone else's past.

21400:10:40,131 --> 00:10:41,364Someone who is gone.

21500:10:48,173 --> 00:10:50,173You're right.

21600:10:52,177 --> 00:10:53,943

- I'll see you downstairs.- Yeah.

21700:10:56,748 --> 00:10:58,581Bring Scrabble.

21800:11:19,687 --> 00:11:24,119Getting a little liquid courage before we


17/57

hit Uncle George with the tough questions.

21900:11:24,492 --> 00:11:26,592I say we just ask himabout family number three.

22000:11:26,644 --> 00:11:28,578Maybe Brenna's right.

22100:11:28,613 --> 00:11:31,514Maybe we're being a little crazy.

22200:11:31,549 --> 00:11:34,117You know, think about how thatwould go. What would we even say?

22300:11:34,135 --> 00:11:36,135Did Dad have a third family?

22400:11:36,171 --> 00:11:37,693We don't have any evidence to support that,

22500:11:37,718 --> 00:11:39,155especially without the book.

22600:11:39,190 --> 00:11:42,158- Which he's hiding from us.- Well, we don't know that, either.

22700:11:42,210 --> 00:11:45,361And since they're leaving tonight,I think maybe that's a sign.

22800:11:45,396 --> 00:11:46,979Oh, what kind of sign?

22900:11:47,015 --> 00:11:49,899A sign that we should let thisgo so I can take my life back.

23000:11:49,951 --> 00:11:52,118Okay, just one game, andthen we're out of here.

23100:11:52,170 --> 00:11:54,170I hate you, Pam.


18/57

23200:11:54,205 --> 00:11:56,222Who's Pam?

23300:11:56,274 --> 00:11:59,593Pam is the winter storm that justcaused our flight to be canceled.

23400:12:00,335 --> 00:12:03,497Yeah, looks like we're stuckhere for one more night.

23500:12:03,535 --> 00:12:05,724Guess we're going toplay more than one game.

23600:12:08,953 --> 00:12:11,621What were you saying about signs?

237

00:12:17,657 --> 00:12:19,457Yes! Okay, good. Um...

23800:12:20,730 --> 00:12:23,614Oh, uh, Sweet Home Alabama.

Okay, stop.

24400:12:31,691 --> 00:12:34,492The score is tied 15 to 15.

24500:12:34,544 --> 00:12:36,181Beth, you're up.

26400:13:13,116 --> 00:13:16,050I have no idea what just happened.These two are of one mind.

26500:13:16,085 --> 00:13:18,936Can we try something that adults can play?

26600:13:18,972 --> 00:13:20,705Like a bluffing game?

26700:13:20,740 --> 00:13:23,315Where you have to decide ifsomeone's telling the truth?

26800:13:23,347 --> 00:13:25,826Uh, well, I think Sara told me

26900:13:25,878 --> 00:13:27,929that Emma took Balderdashwith her to Sedona.

27000:13:27,981 --> 00:13:29,146Yep.

27100:13:29,182 --> 00:13:31,916That's okay. I feel like youmight have an unfair advantage.

27200:13:36,506 --> 00:13:38,856Or, uh, you know, wecould stick to Celebrity,


21/57

27300:13:38,891 --> 00:13:42,493let's just try picking people notripped from the pages of US Weekly.

27400:13:42,528 --> 00:13:44,345And... and we're going tohave to switch up the teams.

27500:13:44,380 --> 00:13:45,796Beth and Brenna can nolonger be on the same side.

27600:13:45,832 --> 00:13:47,765- No!- What?

27700:13:47,800 --> 00:13:50,534- Oh, come on.

- That is not fair.

27800:13:52,205 --> 00:13:56,107How 'bout Shiloh Jolie-Pitt?

27900:13:56,159 --> 00:13:58,409Oh, good one. Is it weirdthat I want to be Shiloh?

28000:13:58,461 --> 00:14:01,212

- A little bit.- Thank God I'm on your team.

28100:14:01,264 --> 00:14:03,147I don't know who any of these people are.

28200:14:05,438 --> 00:14:07,438Good to see you two getting along.

28300:14:09,122 --> 00:14:10,635

When weren't we getting along?

28400:14:13,259 --> 00:14:17,795Uh, I... I came by hereyesterday to see you,

28500:14:17,797 --> 00:14:20,181and I had a little chat


22/57

with my free therapist.

28600:14:20,233 --> 00:14:22,950- Mom.- She was worried about you.

28700:14:22,986 --> 00:14:26,671Look, I know I was actingall Britney Spears circa 2007,

28800:14:26,706 --> 00:14:28,308and I know it's because you guys care.

28900:14:28,333 --> 00:14:31,776But talking about me behind my backdoesn't make me feel any less nuts.

29000:14:32,829 --> 00:14:34,745Just believe that I'm trying, okay?

29100:14:36,649 --> 00:14:37,960Hey, guys...

29200:14:38,443 --> 00:14:40,359As luck would have it,

29300:14:40,384 --> 00:14:42,592I bought stuff for s'mores.

29400:14:42,617 --> 00:14:44,931Oh yay!

29500:14:48,728 --> 00:14:53,597Okay. Okay, girls. Uh, if someonehas something they want to ask me,

29600:14:53,633 --> 00:14:55,666then go ahead and ask. We'regoing to be stuck in here, so...

29700:14:55,702 --> 00:14:58,137Did Dad have a third family in Baltimore?

29800:14:58,162 --> 00:14:59,591- April, I thought we decided...- He


23/57

29900:14:59,616 --> 00:15:02,615said I could ask him whatever Iwanted, and that's what I want to know.

30000:15:02,640 --> 00:15:05,869No. No, there was no third family.

30100:15:06,170 --> 00:15:07,969Then what was he doing there?

30200:15:08,693 --> 00:15:12,170Well, he was a writer, so hetraveled for research all the time.

30300:15:12,195 --> 00:15:14,128Remember, this bookwasn't set in Baltimore.

304

00:15:14,153 --> 00:15:16,610Well, maybe it was fora future book. Who knows?

30500:15:16,635 --> 00:15:18,768Now that you're notrushing to make a flight,

30600:15:18,793 --> 00:15:20,660can I please take a look at the manuscript?

30700:15:20,685 --> 00:15:23,215It's buried in my luggage.I'd really have to dig it out.

30800:15:23,240 --> 00:15:26,332- We've got time.- Okay. You know what? Enough.

30900:15:26,357 --> 00:15:29,945April, I don't think this could possibly

be good for you getting worked up like this.

31000:15:29,970 --> 00:15:31,937Can we please just playanother round of Celebrity?

31100:15:31,962 --> 00:15:33,559Actually, I'm going to sit this one out.


24/57

31200:15:33,584 --> 00:15:35,417I have to take my meds anyway.

31300:15:36,753 --> 00:15:37,835S'mores?

31400:15:37,887 --> 00:15:39,970Yes, please.

31500:15:49,599 --> 00:15:51,632- Hey.- Sorry.

31600:15:51,923 --> 00:15:54,148If you don't want me to film this, I won't.

31700:15:54,173 --> 00:15:57,471

Oh, sure. I mean, if they don'tlet you in after seeing your

31800:15:57,473 --> 00:16:00,341dying sister give herselfchemo, then they're evil.

31900:16:00,837 --> 00:16:01,986You're not dying.

320

00:16:03,329 --> 00:16:04,545We'll see.

32100:16:04,547 --> 00:16:08,232It's weird. Death usedto be my greatest fear,

32200:16:08,284 --> 00:16:09,844but now...

323

00:16:12,121 --> 00:16:16,023It's such a real possibility,that if I don't, it's like a bonus.

32400:16:17,026 --> 00:16:19,790Imagine if you hadn'tfound out when you did.

325


25/57

00:16:19,970 --> 00:16:22,963Remember, George was thefirst person to tell you.

32600:16:23,281 --> 00:16:26,031- Bren...- You basically called him a liar.

32700:16:28,805 --> 00:16:31,055That's because I think he's lying to us.

32800:16:31,090 --> 00:16:33,573Brenna, I know how you feel. I do.

32900:16:33,598 --> 00:16:36,036It's the same way I feltwhen I found out about Dad.

33000:16:36,746 --> 00:16:39,630

I loved him so much that I was blindsided,

33100:16:39,682 --> 00:16:42,678and I just want you to prepareyourself for that with George.

33200:16:45,988 --> 00:16:48,757- Can I talk to you for a sec?- Hmm.

333

00:16:53,746 --> 00:16:56,363Sorry I asked Georgeabout the other family.

33400:16:56,416 --> 00:16:58,432- I just thought that...- It's okay.

33500:16:58,468 --> 00:17:01,268And I understand why you think that,

33600:17:01,270 --> 00:17:04,132but I'm positive it's not true.

33700:17:04,487 --> 00:17:06,618How do you know that?

33800:17:20,197 --> 00:17:21,947


26/57

When you were gone to college,

33900:17:22,604 --> 00:17:24,376your dad began to have...

34000:17:26,574 --> 00:17:28,608Well, a problem.

34100:17:33,028 --> 00:17:34,135How was your night?

34200:17:34,184 --> 00:17:35,473Good.

34300:17:35,517 --> 00:17:37,366The girls and I had the turkey meatloaf.

34400:17:37,418 --> 00:17:38,847

There's...

34500:17:40,371 --> 00:17:42,472There's more in thefridge, if you're hungry.

34600:17:46,244 --> 00:17:48,394- How's Edwin?- Oh, he didn't show.

347

00:17:48,429 --> 00:17:52,031He's probably off doing some research

34800:17:52,066 --> 00:17:54,217- with another T.A.- You were by yourself all night?

34900:17:54,269 --> 00:17:55,434Not by myself.

350

00:17:55,436 --> 00:17:57,103Bartender was good company.

35100:17:57,105 --> 00:17:59,188He was on Jeopardy once.

35200:17:59,240 --> 00:18:00,423Thomas.


27/57

35300:18:00,458 --> 00:18:03,009It helps the writing. Everyconversation helps the writing.

35400:18:03,044 --> 00:18:04,478I study the human condition.

35500:18:04,503 --> 00:18:06,219I'm not buying that anymore.

35600:18:08,917 --> 00:18:10,591How many drinks did you have?

35700:18:14,923 --> 00:18:17,890I know I have been overindulginga little bit lately,

358

00:18:17,942 --> 00:18:19,909- but I'm fine.- No, you're not.

35900:18:21,462 --> 00:18:24,603You're all over the place. You'reslurring. You're stumbling over things.

36000:18:26,801 --> 00:18:28,148Something's gotta change.

36100:18:30,858 --> 00:18:34,231- You think Dad was an alcoholic?- He admitted it to me,

36200:18:34,408 --> 00:18:36,790and I made him go to rehab.

36300:18:37,645 --> 00:18:39,284He found a place in Baltimore.

36400:18:40,615 --> 00:18:41,747That's why he was there.

36500:18:41,783 --> 00:18:44,467Not as long as I wanted.He only stayed a week.

366


28/57

00:18:46,804 --> 00:18:49,488I don't think he evergot well before he died.

36700:18:49,524 --> 00:18:52,325Why didn't you tell me this before?

36800:18:52,377 --> 00:18:53,709You know your dad, his hubris.

36900:18:53,745 --> 00:18:57,530He... he'd had a pretty hardfall from grace as it was,

37000:18:57,565 --> 00:19:01,334and I just didn't want toruin whatever last shred of...

37100:19:01,369 --> 00:19:02,850

Good memories that were left.

37200:19:03,671 --> 00:19:06,571We can't choose who we love, but...

37300:19:08,443 --> 00:19:11,244We can choose how werespond to those people

37400:19:11,279 --> 00:19:13,412

when they do self-destructive things.

37500:19:13,448 --> 00:19:15,414I used to think I should protect you

37600:19:15,450 --> 00:19:17,116from the truth about your dad,

37700:19:17,151 --> 00:19:20,219but it wouldn't have been healthy

to let you keep him on a pedestal

37800:19:20,238 --> 00:19:23,039as some ideal man who could

37900:19:23,074 --> 00:19:24,425do no wrong.


29/57

38000:19:29,097 --> 00:19:31,197Someone else is on that pedestal now.

38100:19:31,232 --> 00:19:32,331Leo.

38200:19:32,367 --> 00:19:34,140I know, sweetheart.

38300:19:35,970 --> 00:19:37,884And a first love is hard to top.

38400:19:40,563 --> 00:19:42,162Actually, I'm...

38500:19:43,011 --> 00:19:45,802Not sure that was thefirst time I fell in love.

38600:19:48,216 --> 00:19:49,966And it won't be the last.

38700:19:54,105 --> 00:19:56,072Where are you going?

38800:19:56,545 --> 00:19:58,178Home.

38900:19:58,214 --> 00:19:59,642Now? Why?

39000:19:59,677 --> 00:20:01,143Because I'm going stir crazy here.

39100:20:01,179 --> 00:20:04,397Have you noticed there's some superweird energy in this house tonight?

39200:20:04,422 --> 00:20:06,949I notice there's a weirdenergy in this house

39300:20:07,001 --> 00:20:08,217pretty much every night.

30/57

00:20:08,252 --> 00:20:11,721Well, since I'm not a part ofthis family, I get to opt out.

39500:20:11,773 --> 00:20:13,472Are you sure you want to go?

39600:20:13,474 --> 00:20:14,640- Yes.- Fine.

39700:20:14,692 --> 00:20:17,410All right, um. It's really bad out there.

39800:20:18,680 --> 00:20:20,266You're not going anywhere.

39900:20:31,659 --> 00:20:33,342By the way, you're wrong...

40000:20:33,378 --> 00:20:35,678About not being a part of this family.

40100:20:35,713 --> 00:20:37,396I mean, you're here for

40200:20:37,448 --> 00:20:42,949breakfast, lunch, dinner,cancer, weddings, funerals.

40300:20:45,239 --> 00:20:46,737You're my sister.

40400:20:46,762 --> 00:20:49,475Get used to it.

40500:20:49,477 --> 00:20:53,045You are a good egg, Brenna Carver,

40600:20:53,081 --> 00:20:55,414and also, impressively good at Celebrity.

40700:20:55,416 --> 00:20:57,185- I know.- We killed it.

408


31/57

00:21:02,023 --> 00:21:04,123- Dad was an alcoholic.- What?

40900:21:04,158 --> 00:21:06,175Mom just told me, thereason he went to Baltimore

41000:21:06,210 --> 00:21:09,061was for a rehab he didn't even finish.

41100:21:09,097 --> 00:21:11,864If you think about it, itpretty much explains everything.

41200:21:11,899 --> 00:21:14,166It definitely doesn't explainwhy George has been lying.

413

00:21:14,432 --> 00:21:17,203Maybe he was just trying toprotect Dad, like he always does.

41400:21:17,238 --> 00:21:21,236Well, if that's the case, then the bookshould be in his suitcase like he said.

41500:21:21,295 --> 00:21:22,427Let's go look.

41600:21:23,111 --> 00:21:24,777Come on.

41700:21:24,829 --> 00:21:26,539What else is there to do in here?

41800:21:27,048 --> 00:21:29,674And what happened to your reporter skills?

419

00:21:30,017 --> 00:21:31,884If this was a story, no way in hell

42000:21:31,886 --> 00:21:33,736the old April Carter would have dropped it.

42100:21:35,323 --> 00:21:38,982To give you some perspective on


32/57

this potentially historic storm.

42200:21:39,007 --> 00:21:42,728- The low pressure area...- They're talking about three feet of snow.

42300:21:42,764 --> 00:21:44,780We could be in this house for a while.

42400:21:44,816 --> 00:21:47,094Ooh.

42500:21:47,902 --> 00:21:49,719Sunny and 60 one day,

42600:21:49,754 --> 00:21:51,721freak blizzard the next.

427

00:21:52,013 --> 00:21:53,696Welcome to New England, Mae.

42800:21:54,642 --> 00:21:56,106Thanks.

42900:21:59,347 --> 00:22:01,297Well, I'm glad I stocked the fridge,

43000:22:01,349 --> 00:22:04,300

though I don't know. Can the familysurvive on hummus and s'mores alone?

43100:22:04,325 --> 00:22:05,351Oh, well, you know,

43200:22:05,353 --> 00:22:08,571during a snow storm, Tequila definitelymoves to the top of the food pyramid,

433

00:22:09,657 --> 00:22:11,173or the bottom.

43400:22:11,209 --> 00:22:12,291Where'd you find that?

43500:22:12,326 --> 00:22:14,310Uh, in the back of the sideboard.


33/57

43600:22:14,345 --> 00:22:17,146Hope you don't mind, Sara.We are totally out of wine.

43700:22:17,181 --> 00:22:18,397- No, that's fine.- Okay.

43800:22:18,433 --> 00:22:21,010I can't even rememberwhere that bottle came from.

43900:22:21,035 --> 00:22:22,468Maybe a gift from a long time ago?

44000:22:22,503 --> 00:22:24,683It is a pretty bottle, though. What is it?

44100:22:24,708 --> 00:22:28,343A very high quality anejoI haven't had in a long time.

44200:22:29,444 --> 00:22:33,078Two years in Los chivos jaliscowith Doctors Without Borders.

44300:22:33,131 --> 00:22:35,767Well, since it's doctor approved...

44400:22:35,792 --> 00:22:38,621And it looks like we're going to bestuck here for who knows how long.

44500:22:38,646 --> 00:22:39,952Ah, well, none for me, thanks.

44600:22:39,987 --> 00:22:41,120I'm good.

44700:22:41,155 --> 00:22:42,492We're out of marshmallows.

44800:22:42,565 --> 00:22:43,616On it.

449


34/57

00:22:46,894 --> 00:22:47,927Count me in, please.

45000:22:47,929 --> 00:22:48,994Oh, yay!

45100:22:50,385 --> 00:22:53,810Is it my imagination or isMae a little prickly with me?

45200:22:53,835 --> 00:22:55,734Oh, I wouldn't read too much into it.

45300:22:55,770 --> 00:22:58,671You know how doctors are. Oneminute they're healing a person,

45400:22:58,673 --> 00:23:00,739the next minute, they're moody as hell.

45500:23:00,775 --> 00:23:03,659Hi, George. Hi, Sara.

45600:23:03,711 --> 00:23:05,744Hi, Natalie. What are you doing?

45700:23:05,746 --> 00:23:08,714Doing? Nothing. Just, youknow, hanging in the kitch.

45800:23:08,716 --> 00:23:10,716April, what's going on in there?

45900:23:10,718 --> 00:23:14,487Hey, why are all my clotheslying all over the floor?

46000:23:16,491 --> 00:23:18,424- Where's the book, George?

- April!

46100:23:18,459 --> 00:23:20,593You said you packed the book. Where is it?

46200:23:20,628 --> 00:23:23,646George, just show her thebook so we can drop this.


35/57

46300:23:23,698 --> 00:23:25,564I cannot believe that youwent through my luggage.

46400:23:25,600 --> 00:23:27,433Because you weren't being honest with us.

46500:23:28,719 --> 00:23:31,957Okay, listen to me. I... I got rid of it...

46600:23:31,982 --> 00:23:34,306For the good of this family.There's nothing truthful in it,

46700:23:34,325 --> 00:23:36,406and it was making everybody crazy.

468

00:23:39,213 --> 00:23:40,437Mae!

46900:23:44,646 --> 00:23:46,436You really need stitches.

47000:23:46,611 --> 00:23:48,260I don't need stitches.

47100:23:48,296 --> 00:23:50,329

Pretty sure you nicked your radial nerve.

47200:23:50,381 --> 00:23:53,466If there's a nick on my nerve,it's because of your tweezer work.

47300:23:53,501 --> 00:23:55,401Now I see why you didn't go into surgery.

47400:23:55,436 --> 00:23:57,169

Thought you might want some water.

47500:23:57,205 --> 00:23:59,155Is there anything else I can do?

47600:23:59,207 --> 00:24:01,140Yes, please turn up the anesthesia.


36/57

47700:24:02,477 --> 00:24:05,344- Stop clenching your fist.- Stop poking in the wrong place.

47800:24:05,346 --> 00:24:07,029Stop backseat driving.

47900:24:07,065 --> 00:24:10,082Isn't there a saying that doctorsare, like, the hardest patients?

48000:24:10,118 --> 00:24:13,302No, I think it's just when theother doctor isn't instilling trust.

48100:24:13,337 --> 00:24:16,965Well, maybe it's just that the firstdoctor doesn't know how to trust.

48200:24:21,028 --> 00:24:22,384Ah, ah, ah. I'll do it.

48300:24:23,965 --> 00:24:24,997Thank you.

48400:24:24,999 --> 00:24:26,762Thank you. I... I'm going to bed.

485

00:24:33,257 --> 00:24:34,757Good night.

48600:24:37,103 --> 00:24:39,497Sorry you had to see that.

48700:24:39,522 --> 00:24:41,355No, no. Not at all.

48800:24:41,380 --> 00:24:42,885

I mean, it just seemed like...

48900:24:43,651 --> 00:24:45,442You know, couple banter.

49000:24:46,053 --> 00:24:47,970Hmm, not exactly.


37/57

49100:24:48,005 --> 00:24:50,144Things with us aren't working out.

49200:24:53,511 --> 00:24:55,578And I thought you goingthrough your uncle's luggage

49300:24:55,613 --> 00:24:57,517was going to be thehighlight of the evening.

49400:24:58,666 --> 00:25:01,600I know I'm probably completelyobsessing about this stuff,

49500:25:01,636 --> 00:25:02,818and honestly,

496

00:25:02,854 --> 00:25:04,770I don't blame you if you just wanna

49700:25:04,772 --> 00:25:08,344delete my number from yourphone and throw in the towel.

49800:25:10,761 --> 00:25:13,462You know, it seems like foreversince you told me about your life.

49900:25:15,844 --> 00:25:17,711It was kind of intentional,

50000:25:18,452 --> 00:25:21,353'cause my life's pretty good these days.

50100:25:22,390 --> 00:25:23,639Tell me more.

502

00:25:23,674 --> 00:25:29,278Um, things are getting alittle serious with me and Josh.

50300:25:29,330 --> 00:25:31,163Pretty sure we're going to be a thing.

50400:25:31,165 --> 00:25:33,265


38/57

What? You never talk like this.

50500:25:33,301 --> 00:25:34,433I know.

50600:25:34,468 --> 00:25:35,777Why didn't you tell me?

50700:25:36,686 --> 00:25:38,686How could I? I mean,

50800:25:39,190 --> 00:25:41,110you just lost Leo.

50900:25:43,093 --> 00:25:46,095That doesn't mean I don't want youto find someone to fall in love with.

510

00:25:46,147 --> 00:25:47,980I didn't say I loved him.

51100:25:49,283 --> 00:25:50,916You pre-love him.

51200:25:50,952 --> 00:25:53,732Maybe. Oh my God.

51300:25:54,222 --> 00:25:55,318

Ape.

51400:25:57,601 --> 00:25:59,895Oh, hey, you can go. I got this.

51500:26:12,874 --> 00:26:15,908If there's nothing in the book,then why did he get rid of it?

51600:26:15,910 --> 00:26:17,910

I know. There was something in there.

51700:26:19,013 --> 00:26:20,880Bet we have a brother.

51800:26:20,882 --> 00:26:22,848I always wanted a brother.


39/57

51900:26:22,850 --> 00:26:25,429Not like this, obviously.

52000:26:26,387 --> 00:26:29,211I kind of believed George when hesaid there weren't any more of us.

52100:26:29,236 --> 00:26:31,957Maybe Dad killed someone?

52200:26:31,993 --> 00:26:33,859I don't think he could if he tried.

52300:26:33,895 --> 00:26:35,861What if Dad was gay?

52400:26:35,863 --> 00:26:38,867And George went to these

extremes to cover it up?

52500:26:38,892 --> 00:26:39,941I mean, what year is it?

52600:26:41,352 --> 00:26:42,434What if...

52700:26:43,804 --> 00:26:47,489Mom and George wanted to have an affair?

52800:26:47,575 --> 00:26:50,459What? Are you trying tostir up drama for your movie?

52900:26:50,511 --> 00:26:54,153No. There's no camerahere, just a question.

53000:26:55,316 --> 00:26:58,584

Mom and George? Because theydated before Mom and Dad?

53100:26:58,619 --> 00:27:01,062Sara and George dated?

53200:27:01,087 --> 00:27:03,221Yeah, and...


40/57

53300:27:04,558 --> 00:27:07,192They dated, like a few months ago.

53400:27:07,194 --> 00:27:10,496- What?- And George and Mae just broke up.

53500:27:10,498 --> 00:27:14,550Maybe Mae is picking upon something between them?

53600:27:17,321 --> 00:27:19,939Do you think they hookedup while Sara was married?

53700:27:21,375 --> 00:27:23,915God knows Dad was out of town enough.

53800:27:26,347 --> 00:27:27,846You guys...

53900:27:28,454 --> 00:27:31,877The first line of Dad's book isthe main character saying that...

54000:27:31,986 --> 00:27:33,984He's planning his own death.

54100:27:34,922 --> 00:27:36,460What if that's what happened?

54200:27:37,942 --> 00:27:40,006What if Dad killed himself

54300:27:40,031 --> 00:27:42,966because he found out about anaffair between Mom and George?

54400:27:45,016 --> 00:27:48,567No. Wait, actually, that'simpossible. George was driving the car.

54500:27:48,602 --> 00:27:50,002Unless he wasn't.

546


41/57

00:27:50,037 --> 00:27:52,705But then the only way thepolice report would say that

54700:27:52,740 --> 00:27:55,607George was driving, is if George lied.

54800:28:01,142 --> 00:28:03,500Blankets, blankets.

54900:28:03,644 --> 00:28:05,978Where are you, blankets?

55000:28:06,013 --> 00:28:07,730"We're hiding from you, because

55100:28:07,732 --> 00:28:10,566"you're addressing us by name,and it's a little creepy."

55200:28:10,601 --> 00:28:11,902"We used to like it."

55300:28:11,927 --> 00:28:13,961- Okay.- Okay.

55400:28:15,473 --> 00:28:16,588I got it. Thank you.

55500:28:17,775 --> 00:28:19,278Hey...

55600:28:19,352 --> 00:28:22,086I'm sorry about you and Mae.

55700:28:22,111 --> 00:28:24,724I'm a little surprised. It seemedlike things were going well.

55800:28:24,749 --> 00:28:27,349Well, uh, I thought they were,

55900:28:27,384 --> 00:28:29,485but you know how it is whenthere's so much distance,


42/57

56000:28:29,520 --> 00:28:33,372and just two insanely demanding careers.

56100:28:33,424 --> 00:28:37,226Yeah. I thought you guys wantedthat kind of relationship, though.

56200:28:37,261 --> 00:28:40,562I mean, it worked in theory,rather than in practice.

56300:28:40,598 --> 00:28:44,133Um, this was sort of our attemptto have a last conversation

56400:28:44,168 --> 00:28:47,102about whether to make it work, andthat's why she came up from New York,

56500:28:47,138 --> 00:28:50,826but sometimes if it's broken,you gotta stop trying to fix it.

56600:28:52,343 --> 00:28:54,960Well, I'll let her know, that...

56700:28:54,995 --> 00:28:57,980She's got a friend if she everneeds one when she's in Boston.

56800:28:58,015 --> 00:28:59,097Yeah, I wouldn't do that.

56900:28:59,133 --> 00:29:01,984She has some complicatedfeelings about you.

57000:29:03,370 --> 00:29:05,287Me?

57100:29:05,322 --> 00:29:08,323You and I were over before you met her.

57200:29:08,359 --> 00:29:10,794Well, she could never get over it.

573


43/57

00:29:20,037 --> 00:29:22,771Oh!

57400:29:22,807 --> 00:29:25,774No, no.

57500:29:25,776 --> 00:29:27,141Beth, I think that one's a goner.

57600:29:27,166 --> 00:29:29,249No. No way. I like them well done.

57700:29:30,080 --> 00:29:33,565Bleh, oh.

57800:29:33,601 --> 00:29:35,784Maybe not that well done.

579

00:29:35,809 --> 00:29:36,941Wow.

58000:29:36,987 --> 00:29:38,787What'd I miss?

58100:29:38,839 --> 00:29:41,824She's been putting on quitethe show for us down here.

582

00:29:41,859 --> 00:29:43,675I blame the Tequila.

58300:29:43,727 --> 00:29:45,511Ah, all of it?

58400:29:46,730 --> 00:29:48,697Haven't seen you this drunkie in a while.

58500:29:48,732 --> 00:29:50,582

I'm like a fun drunk, right?

58600:29:50,634 --> 00:29:52,801Yes, you are a super fun drunk.

58700:29:52,803 --> 00:29:55,337But when you get this drunk, you usually


44/57

58800:29:55,372 --> 00:29:56,772drunk dial your exes.

58900:29:56,774 --> 00:29:59,608Oh, yeah I do. I do.

59000:29:59,643 --> 00:30:02,544And now that your in,you know, pre-love...

59100:30:02,596 --> 00:30:04,563Yes. Yes.

59200:30:07,721 --> 00:30:09,921I am in pre-love.

59300:30:10,487 --> 00:30:14,623So I must put myself to bed

before I sabotage my own happiness.

59400:30:14,625 --> 00:30:18,293Good night. Farewell, loved ones.

59500:30:18,329 --> 00:30:20,429You're beautiful. You're beautiful.

59600:30:20,481 --> 00:30:23,081- Good night, Beth.

- Beautiful.

59700:30:29,223 --> 00:30:30,495Okay.

59800:30:31,141 --> 00:30:32,694This family needs to talk.

59900:30:34,378 --> 00:30:35,838There are some rumors going around,

60000:30:35,863 --> 00:30:37,697and I think it's timewe find out the truth.

60100:30:38,415 --> 00:30:40,032I think we already know the truth.


45/57

60200:30:46,720 --> 00:30:48,520Uh, lay it on me.

60300:30:50,194 --> 00:30:52,928Well, we know you destroyed a book

60400:30:52,963 --> 00:30:55,440that began with a line abouta man planning his own death.

60500:30:55,465 --> 00:30:57,132April, your father was a novelist.

60600:30:57,184 --> 00:30:59,067He wrote fiction.

60700:30:59,103 --> 00:31:00,135Is that true?

60800:31:00,170 --> 00:31:02,104Was it fiction, George?

60900:31:02,156 --> 00:31:03,989We've been through this.

61000:31:04,024 --> 00:31:07,351Right. Nothing truthful? Lies.

61100:31:07,376 --> 00:31:09,407Like what you and Sara have going on?

61200:31:10,147 --> 00:31:12,731Mom, have you and Georgedated since Dad died?

61300:31:12,766 --> 00:31:16,018Well, yes, but what doesthat have to do with anything?

61400:31:16,020 --> 00:31:17,753Why didn't you tell me?

61500:31:17,788 --> 00:31:18,987You had enough on your plate.

616


46/57

00:31:18,989 --> 00:31:20,656And now?

61700:31:20,708 --> 00:31:22,824What are the two of you hiding from us now?

61800:31:24,895 --> 00:31:28,680I... I'm trying to protect all of you.

61900:31:28,732 --> 00:31:29,898Can we just leave it at that?

62000:31:29,900 --> 00:31:32,567Protect us from what?

62100:31:32,603 --> 00:31:34,970Were you together with Georgewhen you were married to Dad?

62200:31:35,443 --> 00:31:37,773No! No!

62300:31:37,808 --> 00:31:39,474People make mistakes.

62400:31:39,510 --> 00:31:40,742We all know that Dad did,

625

00:31:40,778 --> 00:31:43,528and if, you know, you cheated back,

62600:31:43,564 --> 00:31:46,531how could you have possibly knownthat he would want to end his life?

62700:31:46,583 --> 00:31:49,851End his life? Where is this coming from?

628

00:31:49,887 --> 00:31:51,703Mom...

62900:31:53,424 --> 00:31:56,725We think that Dad killedhimself, and George covered it up.

63000:31:56,760 --> 00:31:59,311


47/57

You know what? You... Youdon't know what you're saying.

63100:31:59,363 --> 00:32:00,950You're talking about my brother's death

63200:32:00,975 --> 00:32:03,976like it was a soap opera,when really it was...

63300:32:05,536 --> 00:32:06,702It was tragic.

63400:32:08,422 --> 00:32:10,472Yes, Thomas...

63500:32:12,476 --> 00:32:14,443did want to end his life,

63600:32:15,446 --> 00:32:17,279but not because we were having an affair.

63700:32:19,383 --> 00:32:20,482Because he was sick.

63800:32:23,187 --> 00:32:24,319He was dying.

639

00:32:26,996 --> 00:32:28,215So, April's in New York, huh?

64000:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,196- She loves it.- Huh.

64100:32:30,248 --> 00:32:31,531Hey.

642

00:32:31,583 --> 00:32:33,078Damn it.

64300:32:35,220 --> 00:32:37,137Those twitches look likethey're getting worse.

64400:32:39,141 --> 00:32:40,390


48/57

They're not twitches.

64500:32:40,425 --> 00:32:43,010Well, it's been a few months.We should check your...

64600:32:43,048 --> 00:32:48,313Your thyroid. Rule out anyinfection or a minor stroke.

64700:32:49,267 --> 00:32:50,628Have you talked to Sara?

64800:32:50,653 --> 00:32:51,695No.

64900:32:52,437 --> 00:32:55,750Well, Tommy, this could be... Serious.

65000:32:55,775 --> 00:32:57,458It is serious,

65100:32:58,024 --> 00:33:00,343and my symptoms are obviouslygetting impossible to hide.

65200:33:00,378 --> 00:33:02,045What are you talking about?

65300:33:05,686 --> 00:33:08,134Well, it turns out Lou Gehrigand I have a lot more in common

65400:33:08,186 --> 00:33:09,903than our love of baseball.

65500:33:11,072 --> 00:33:13,823A.L.S.? Are you saying, that you have...

65600:33:13,875 --> 00:33:15,008Yes.

65700:33:15,043 --> 00:33:16,126I have A.L.S.

65800:33:24,319 --> 00:33:25,368


49/57

Yeah, but that's...

65900:33:25,536 --> 00:33:26,840Incurable.

66000:33:27,239 --> 00:33:29,038There's only one outcome...

66100:33:30,976 --> 00:33:32,008And it's coming.

66200:33:33,812 --> 00:33:35,221Which is why I need your help.

66300:33:36,948 --> 00:33:38,460I want you to help me die.

66400:33:38,812 --> 00:33:40,950

Don't talk like that. You can...

66500:33:42,387 --> 00:33:45,410Still live. You can have a productive life.

66600:33:45,435 --> 00:33:48,415And if I don't, you know what thatlooks like, I'm not gonna die like that.

66700:33:49,778 --> 00:33:52,562

George, you are theonly one I can count on.

66800:33:52,614 --> 00:33:53,663Please.

66900:33:53,698 --> 00:33:54,831You need to talk to Sara.

67000:33:54,866 --> 00:33:57,467

No. I'm not gonna sayanything to her or the girls.

67100:33:57,502 --> 00:33:59,552They'll just try to talkme out of it. This way...

67200:34:00,839 --> 00:34:03,506


50/57

I can go out with some dignity intact.

67300:34:03,542 --> 00:34:05,344Dignity? Screw your dignity.

67400:34:05,911 --> 00:34:08,757Your children need you.Your wife needs you...

67500:34:10,015 --> 00:34:14,450If only for a... a finite time. Howcould you leave them before you have to?

67600:34:14,486 --> 00:34:16,553If not for yourself, you stay here.

67700:34:16,588 --> 00:34:18,294You stay with them...

67800:34:19,518 --> 00:34:20,929Every second you have.

67900:34:21,776 --> 00:34:23,179Do you hear me?

68000:34:33,438 --> 00:34:35,238That's not possible.

681

00:34:35,273 --> 00:34:37,290He wasn't an alcoholic, Sara.

68200:34:37,325 --> 00:34:39,542He went to rehab in Baltimore.

68300:34:39,578 --> 00:34:43,263To see a specialist at Johns Hopkins...

68400:34:44,316 --> 00:34:46,219

Where he accepted...

68500:34:47,152 --> 00:34:49,118How debilitating his disease was.

68600:34:50,488 --> 00:34:52,788It is no way to die.


51/57

68700:34:55,460 --> 00:34:56,844And still...

68800:34:57,928 --> 00:35:00,363He was telling me that he didn'twant to suffer through that.

68900:35:00,398 --> 00:35:03,478I thought I'd... I'd talked him out of it.

69000:35:03,876 --> 00:35:05,101What happened?

69100:35:05,136 --> 00:35:07,003Well, it was rightbefore his 55th birthday,

69200:35:07,038 --> 00:35:09,314

and he invited me...

69300:35:09,975 --> 00:35:12,734Down to Florida for some golfing and...

69400:35:13,044 --> 00:35:14,060Fishing to celebrate.

69500:35:14,112 --> 00:35:16,694Natalie probably remembers some of this.

69600:35:17,065 --> 00:35:23,488And, uh... and when I arrived, heagain pleaded with me to help him...

69700:35:24,222 --> 00:35:25,855And nobody could know.

69800:35:27,058 --> 00:35:30,126His insurance policy was

expiring when he was 55,

69900:35:30,161 --> 00:35:32,695so he had to do it before his birthday.

70000:35:33,832 --> 00:35:36,545Otherwise he'd have to renew,


52/57

70100:35:37,669 --> 00:35:40,600and then any physical he wouldtake would reveal how sick he was,

70200:35:40,972 --> 00:35:43,056and he wanted all ofyou to be taken care of.

70300:35:43,108 --> 00:35:45,397And all he needed was my help.

70400:35:46,611 --> 00:35:47,660You...

70500:35:49,047 --> 00:35:51,047You helped him kill himself?

70600:35:51,082 --> 00:35:52,570

April...

70700:35:52,595 --> 00:35:55,851I promise you, there willbe no more secrets left...

70800:35:57,022 --> 00:35:58,987When I stop talking, okay?

70900:36:02,627 --> 00:36:04,256

I didn't agree with his plan.

71000:36:05,597 --> 00:36:07,131We fought about it,

71100:36:07,699 --> 00:36:10,543but my God, he was... He was determined.

71200:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,871He hopped in his car, and... and sped off,

71300:36:14,906 --> 00:36:16,706and I got in my rental and I followed him,

71400:36:16,741 --> 00:36:18,933'cause I knew. I knew what he was...

715


53/57

00:36:22,397 --> 00:36:24,597I tried to get him to pull over.

71600:36:24,649 --> 00:36:26,506We were racing in this...

71700:36:27,369 --> 00:36:30,829Ugh, this empty, open street afew miles outside of Key West.

71800:36:33,458 --> 00:36:35,829We're driving along, and...

71900:36:37,395 --> 00:36:39,195He looked over to me...

72000:36:41,566 --> 00:36:47,521And he gunned the accelerator,

72100:36:48,206 --> 00:36:51,253and I watched him as heswerved head on into a tree.

72200:36:53,244 --> 00:36:55,922And, uh, I stopped...

72300:36:57,148 --> 00:36:59,340Ran over to him and he was, uh...

72400:37:01,436 --> 00:37:03,152I mean, he was...

72500:37:06,541 --> 00:37:08,693You know, my brother was all...

72600:37:11,496 --> 00:37:15,164He was broken. He was broken,and he was bleeding, and he was...

72700:37:15,200 --> 00:37:16,636He was hurt pretty bad.

72800:37:16,661 --> 00:37:18,394But he was still alive.

72900:37:19,387 --> 00:37:20,470


54/57

Barely.

73000:37:20,472 --> 00:37:22,071What did you do?

73100:37:24,370 --> 00:37:25,485I did nothing.

73200:37:27,412 --> 00:37:29,078I sat there...

73300:37:30,165 --> 00:37:32,081And I held onto him

73400:37:32,656 --> 00:37:33,772until the end.

73500:37:34,386 --> 00:37:37,220

But the police said...

73600:37:37,255 --> 00:37:40,305I had to make absolutely certain that

73700:37:40,389 --> 00:37:42,389it looked like just an accident.

73800:37:42,977 --> 00:37:44,758So I moved his body...

73900:37:44,783 --> 00:37:47,200into the passenger seat

74000:37:47,232 --> 00:37:49,679and I took a... a crowbar or something

74100:37:49,704 --> 00:37:52,672and I smashed the glasson the passenger side...

74200:37:54,038 --> 00:37:59,041And I dragged my hand, my arms,even my face in the gravel.

74300:38:01,179 --> 00:38:03,179And I hid my rental car


55/57

74400:38:03,231 --> 00:38:06,467and I reported the accidentwith myself as the driver.

74500:38:07,986 --> 00:38:09,035And...

74600:38:10,321 --> 00:38:12,288I spent the last years

74700:38:12,323 --> 00:38:15,008trying... trying to put this behind me.

74800:38:17,011 --> 00:38:20,196Why did you do all this for him?

74900:38:20,231 --> 00:38:22,965Why did you lie for him all these years?

75000:38:25,236 --> 00:38:27,103He's my big brother.

75100:38:27,155 --> 00:38:29,038I'd do anything for him.

75200:38:30,480 --> 00:38:32,646I know it's not logical,

75300:38:33,011 --> 00:38:35,912but it's the truth.

75400:38:37,212 --> 00:38:38,345I'm sorry.

75500:38:42,053 --> 00:38:44,720What you did was basically murder.

756

00:38:44,772 --> 00:38:48,024Well, some would say that I assisted...

75700:38:49,994 --> 00:38:54,412With something that he wanted, butyeah... yeah, the law says it's murder.

75800:38:55,733 --> 00:38:57,376


56/57

Could you go to prison?

75900:39:03,925 --> 00:39:05,608You should have told us.

76000:39:07,045 --> 00:39:08,811It's better that you didn't know.

76100:39:08,863 --> 00:39:10,780Because if the truth ever came out,

76200:39:10,815 --> 00:39:12,698then the insurance money

76300:39:12,734 --> 00:39:15,618that Thomas was so adamantyou receive would be gone.

764

00:39:15,620 --> 00:39:18,654The money for this house, for medical care.

76500:39:19,674 --> 00:39:21,399We never got any of that money.

76600:39:23,061 --> 00:39:24,760Why is that?

76700:39:25,930 --> 00:39:27,030

I don't know.

76800:39:29,601 --> 00:39:32,619I never wanted any of you to find out.
