Dad, I'll--

You'll have your own horse.

My own horse?

Well, you like horses,|don't you?

When I was eight.

Well, the counselor|said that--

he warned me you would try|to talk your way out of it.

He said there's a danger of us|getting drawn back...

into old patterns|and destructive behavior...

and that we should spend|our time focusing on...

conversations that focus on|"We" versus "Me."

This is "We."

Oh. Well, good.

Good.

I'll go wherever|you want me to go.

I mean,|I know I'm a mess.

TOM:
No, you're not a mess.

NICOLE:
|No, I am. I am a mess.

And I'd probably|send me away, too.

[ Sighs ]

NICOLE:
|You've got Morgan now...

and you're gonna do it|right this time.

I just wish|I wasn't the child...

that everybody learned|what not to do from.

That's not who you are.

I know I remind you of Mom.

Everything that went wrong...

but sometimes you look at me|like you wish I wasn't there.

Like you wish|I'd just disappear.

And it just hurts so bad.

I know I'm not easy to love...

but could you try anyway?

TOM:
I do love you.

I love you so much.

[ Crying ]

I'm frightened for you|every minute.

Every minute.

And I need help.

I can't do it alone.

COURTNEY:
Tom, honey?

Morgan's got her swim class.|It starts in 10 minutes.

What's going on?

That's what we're trying|to figure out here.

COURTNEY:
|What do you mean figure out?

Didn't we agree on|a plan of action?

Rosa? Would you please|put Morgan in the car?

Thank you.|Yes, right now.

Oh, my God.

This is not gonna start up|all over again.

She needs discipline.|Children need limits.

They want limits!

- So we'll set them.|- We already have!

She's going to that school|in Utah.

No. I am not the bad guy.|This is not about me.

I have a child|that I'm thinking of.

So do I. Two children.

COURTNEY:
Oh, Nic...

Nicole, I just don't think|I can live with you.

I know I can't live without her.

We have to be at Pepperdine|in ten minutes, Tom.

I'm talking to my daughter.

It's Morgan's|very first swim class.

I'm talking to my daughter.

Nicole,|I just want Morgan...

to have an older sister|that she can look up to.

Me, too.

COURTNEY:
That's all right.|I've got her now.

NICOLE:
She's not like Mom.

TOM:
[ Chuckles ] No.

God, your mom|was an amazing woman.

She loved you very much.

I wish I remembered her better.

TOM:
Hmm.

[ Sighs ]

We should talk about her more.

We will, honey. We will.

Before you say anything, sir...

I just want you to know|that I love your daughter, sir.

TOM:
You don't have to--

She has so much beauty,|so much honesty...

and I love her so much.

Carlos, stop.|Now, I have something to say.

Thank you.

For what?

For not listening to me.

For sticking around.

Annapolis is gonna be|lucky to get you.

CARLOS:
But I had a speech.

I had a pretty good speech.

I bet you did.

You want to hear it anyways?

Why don't you tell it to her?

Seems to be doing pretty good.

How did that happen?

How did you do that?

Do what?

I wasn't even there.

NICOLE:
Yes, you were.

You were so there.

WOMAN SINGING:
|I want to believe in

I want to believe in us

NICOLE:
There are millions|of people out there...

but, in the end,|it all comes down to one.

I still panic sometimes,|forget to breathe...

but I know...

I know there's|something beautiful...

in all my imperfections.

A beauty which he held up|for me to see.

A strength that can|never be taken away.

I'm going out to see him|next week...

but until then...

there's one photo|I keep with me all the time.

I believe in us

Everyone falls

But not everyone rises

Why don't you get up

And rise again for me

What if the world|were a little more perfect

Would you stop crying

Would you take the leap

Now, what if the world|were a little more perfect

Would you open your eyes

And blink again for me

For me

Yeah, for me

What about friendship

What about friends

You said the whole world|was against you

It all had to end

What about love

What about family

What about all|that you have to live for

What if the world were|a little more perfect

Would you stop crying

Would you take the leap

What if the world were|a little more perfect

Would you open your eyes

And blink again for me

For me

And blink again for me

For me

It isn't easy|here without you

Why did you leave me

What am I supposed to do

Without you

Without you

And what if the world|were a little more perfect

Would you stop crying

Would you take the leap

What if the world were|a little more perfect

Would you open your eyes

And what if the world|were a little more perfect

Would you stop crying

Would you take the leap

What if the world were|a little more perfect

Could you open your eyes

And blink again for me

For me

Ooh

For me

For me, for me
