Synopsis: Dean Pereira and Cindy Heller Pereira are a young, working class married couple - Dean currently working as a painter, and Cindy working as a nurse in a medical clinic - with a young daughter named Frankie. Despite their relatively tender ages, they are both ravaged by the life they've eked out together and by the experiences they've had leading into their marriage. Dean, a high school drop out, comes from a broken home, where he never really had a mother figure. He never saw himself getting married or having a family despite falling in love at first sight with Cindy. He doesn't have any professional ambition beyond his current work - which he enjoys since he feels he can knock off a beer at 8 o'clock in the morning without it affecting his work - although Cindy believes he has so much more potential in life.

Please, sir!

Don't touch her back there, please?

- Thank you! Thank you very much.

- Come on! Why not?

Sir! Please there's no sex in my taxi!

Do not touch the young lady in my taxi!

I'll have you know that she was

putting the moves on me.

That's not true.

Would you believe a face like this?

- Look at that face. Look at that face.

I will not have you trying

something that's wrong in my car!

What's wrong?

This is my car,

You're in my home now, OK?

You got me feeling sick, you know?

I'm very intuitive.

I know there's something up.

Stop, come back, please!

Please come down. Please come down.

Is it mine?

- I don't know. I don't know.

- You don't know?

Maybe.

- Maybe?

- Probably not.

What are you gonna do?

- What am I gonna do?

- What are you gonna do?

I don't know...

You're gonna have it? You're not

gonna have it? What are you gonna do?

- You thought about this?

- I don't know.

You don't know?

You've opted for our

vacuum-aspiration abortion today.

I'm just gonna ask you a few questions.

They're sensitive in nature,

so if at any time, you're uncomfortable,

you just let me know, OK?

At what age were you

when you first had intercourse?

- Thirteen.

- OK.

That's not unusual.

OK, and how many sexual partners

would you say you've had

from when you first began?

Maybe...

...twenty... twenty...

- ... twenty-five?

- GK.

Do you know

which partner you were with

at the time that you became pregnant?

CK. And is that partner

supportive to you?

Um...

No. OK.

Good, all right, now I'm gonna

put my hand on your belly...

...and then I'm gonna

introduce a finger.

You're gonna feel it.

OK, there you are.

All right...

That's it, OK, good.

Deep breathing. That's it.

All right, I feel the uterus.

Indeed, it's probably

11 and a half, 12 weeks.

It's in a safe position

for the procedure.

OK, I'm gonna insert a speculum.

it's gonna cause some pressure.

Here it goes, this is it.

That's it. I know it's uncomfortable.

I know it's uncomfortable.

But as much as you can relax,

the easier it goes, OK.

It's set right where I need to have it.

Good work. Keep that breathing.

- You're making me breathe hard.

- You're doing great.

The next thing I'm gonna do is I

want to give you some local anesthesia.

It's a little uncomfortable,

so what I want you to do...

Right now, I'm gonna

give you the first injection.

Take a giant breath and cough.

Go ahead. Breath... Cough.

OK, fine, fine, fine.

OK. I'm just gonna

put that down and let it take effect.

Breathe deeply, slowly, deeply...

What I'm gonna do

is apply an instrument,

so I can hold the cervix still.

Shouldn't feel this.

Maybe a little pressure.

- I can't.

- Oh, sweetheart, are you OK?

Cindy?

- Stop.

- OK. OK.

- Stop.

- OK, I'm sorry and I will stop.

All right, you wanna sit up?

OK, all right.

You want me to just stop

the whole procedure, is that correct?

All right, I'm gonna step out.

- Felicia...

- Yeah.

- Do you wanna put your things back on?

- Can I see my...?

- Can I see my friend?

- Sure, honey.

Let's do it.

Let's be a family.

Let's be a family.

You don't have to do this,

you know.

It's not your fault.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Hey, it's me Cindy. Hi.

We need you to come in...

Who else did you call?

- I called Janet, and I called...

- I'm out of town, too.

What time is it? What time is it?

Six, seven, eight, nine...

Nine o'clock.

If I'm there at nine?

I'm coming if I'm there at nine.

Cindy!

Cin!

I'm gonna f***in' kill her.

Yo.

This is your 11:
00am wake up call.

OK. Thank you.

Cin?

Yeah. Um...

Where's the nearest bus station?

Sunday, 11:
16 pm...

I just want to say to you,

thanks for making all bets off

and for freeing me of my human decency.

All your sh*t is going in the trash.

All your books

are gonna get f***ing ripped up.

You want to go to war? I mean,

well go to wan we'll see who wins.

I know who the f***er is, OK?

And I'm gonna destroy him.

Sunday, 11:
58pm.

You probably don't even know

what you did.

I want you to hear something, OK?

I have never... I have never

cursed at a girl in my life.

F*** you!

F*** you, b*tch!

Do you understand that?

I'm gonna find him

and Im gonna f*** his ass up!

I hope he looks so beautiful to you...

I hope he looks so beautiful

to you when I'm done.

Do you hear me?

End of messages.

Hey.

Hey, I'm looking for Dean.

For Dean. I'm looking for Dean.

You know where he's at?

- Yeah, I'm Dean.

- Oh, OK.

Your little boy's
