Cyrus Page #4

to talk to you man-to-man.

No. I'm-- I'm all right.

I didn't want to say anything,

'cause Molly asked me not to, but...

I think-- I think you might be

coming on a tad too strong.

Okay.

She said that?

She didn't say it

in those exact words but--

Wow. I mean--

I don't want to get into it, but

those were not the signals...

I was getting at all tonight.

In the past,

when she's losing interest,

she tends to

overcompensate sexually.

I just think that if you

pulled back 10% to 20%,

emotionally speaking,

you'd do a lot better for yourself.

Wow.

Okay.

Okay, I'm gonna

go to sleep.

Night, John.

Good night.

Did you see John this morning?

He actually left

last night.

Last night?

Come take a seat, Mom.

You look so serious.

I talked to John last night.

Uh-huh.

What?

He...

feels that things

are moving really fast,

and...

I think he wants to just

slow down a little bit.

He said that?

Read the note.

I mean,

it's just so not like him.

Are you saying

that I'm making this up?

No, I'm just--

I'm confused.

You're confused?

What do you mean you're confused?

I'm just trying to tell you the truth,

and you're, like, attacking me?

- I'm just trying to help!

- Wait!

Where are you going?

Hello?

Hey.

Hey.

Can you come over?

Something's going on with Cyrus.

Is everything okay?

He's been gone all day.

He's missing.

Yeah. Yeah.

I'm on my way.

Thanks.

Okay, bye.

Hey.

You okay?

Mmm.

Thanks so much for coming.

Are you hungry?

You want something to eat?

Mm-mmm.

No?

I could order something

or pick something up or--

Mm-mmm.

You should eat something.

Mmm, I'm not hungry.

Hey. Hi.

Hi.

Hello.

Hi. Come here.

What happened?

Molly, why don't you,

uh-- why don't you sit down for a sec, okay?

Sit down for a second.

Um--

You guys want to

talk alone or--

No, this concerns you.

You should stay, John.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Okay.

I don't want to make this emotional.

I've decided to move out.

I'm an adult now, and I think

it's time for us to move on.

I-I--

It's pretty sudden though.

- I rented a room.

- You rented a room?

I found some musicians on Craigslist,

and I'm gonna rent a room in their house.

And it's gonna be

better for both of us.

And besides,

you have John now,

and you guys need some space

for your relationship to flourish.

It's for the best.

Yeah.

I think that maybe--

This is so sudden.

- Maybe you're feeling some anger or--

- I'm not angry.

Maybe you should just

take it slowly, step-by-step.

You guys are so serious.

It's not a big deal.

Well, I need to go,

'cause I'm gonna go paint my room tonight.

Then I'm gonna come back with a truck

tomorrow and get the rest of my things.

Will you pack them up

for me, Mom?

Uh--

Please. It'll be easier.

Just give me a hug.

I love you.

It's okay. We'll take some time off

and let the dust settle a little bit,

and we'll all get together

for dinner or something, okay?

John, really nice

spending time with you.

Okay.

It's gonna be good.

I'm excited about the new place.

Tilt it sideways a little bit.

Thanks, John.

Yeah.

Will you thank Molly for packing

up all this stuff for me, please?

Actually, she had to work,

so I did most of it.

Oh.

Thanks.

No problem.

Okay.

See you.

That's great.

There you are.

You are not gonna believe this.

He did it.

He stole my shoes.

This means my whole friendship

with the guy is based on bullshit.

All right, let me just finish-- The first night

I was there, he was messing with me.

That means there hasn't been

an honest moment yet.

Jamie!

I get it. I'm sorry.

I have to do this. Then I have to go

to the flower shop for my wedding.

Can we just talk about this later, please? Yes.

I will wait.

It was the act of taking the

shoes that was the big deal...

and the fact that he's been lying

the whole time I've known him.

Bringing me in, acting like, "Hey, yeah,

come on in. No problem.

Any friend of my mom's

a friend of mine."

The whole time just

to get me to trust him,

so he can turn around

and stab me in the back.

Oh, my God.

It's interesting.

Don't you guys see?

By saying he's leaving because of me,

he makes me the bad guy.

Right?

It's like he lit the fuse and ran away.

Will you go look over at those flowers?

I'm sorry, you guys.

That's okay.

These are nice ranunculus.

Keep naming flowers, John.

Whatever you'd like.

It's just a wedding, honey.

Don't sweat it.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'll leave you guys alone.

I just have to--

I feel like--

It's all right.

She's sitting there, lonely,

in this house, miserable,

which is exactly

what he wants her to feel.

Are you all right?

No.

Come here.

It's gonna be okay.

No, it's not.

I know it seems just weird that it was so fast,

but it really is gonna be all right.

No, it's not okay!

Okay.

Let's just go to sleep.

Yeah.

Listen, I know you're tired

of me saying this.

So don't say it.

And it's upsetting to hear.

It is.

But it's not

gonna be all right.

It's gonna be terrible.

That's true.

Things are really

not gonna be okay.

That makes me feel better.

Just be honest with me.

Yeah. Yeah.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

I like you.

I want to be with you.

I love being with you.

I want to wake up

in the morning at your house...

instead of waking up

at my house going,

"I gotta get over to her house.

I miss her."

What do you think?

Did you just ask to move in?

Yes. I did.

So, hold on. Hold on. But...

I don't know which way the wind

is blowing with Cyrus.

And I don't know how he's feeling.

Yeah, of course.

I don't think that he knows

how he's feeling and--

Let's take it day by day...

for as long as we can go.

Okay.

Yeah, let's do this.

Where are you going?

Where are you taking me?

Right there.

Hmm?

I'm taking you right there.

Oh, my goodness.

What are you doing?

I want to get f***ed.

You're naughty.

Mm-hmm.

Hey, guys.

Whoa! Whoa! Whoa!

What the--

Hey, man.

Cy--

Sorry for interrupting you.

Good to see you.

Hi.

Yeah.

Uh, were you planning on

coming over?

We didn't get a message.

Just came home for a bit.

That was, uh, bad timing

there, huh?

Can I have a hug?

Yeah.

Come here.

I went through something

really tough tonight.

Oh, baby.

What happened?

He wants to come back home.

Okay.

He's been having

panic attacks.

Oh, no.

Hmm.

The weird thing is,

it was his decision, you know?

He is an adult and--

I mean--

But these

are panic attacks,

and that doesn't have anything

to do with being an adult or not.

Yeah.

An adult, that's--

No. I know, I know.

Yep.

Ohh.

Do you mind if

I go talk to him?

Hey.

You can relax.

It's just me.

I'm sorry?

We should talk.

What the f*** are you doing

with all your sh*t in my room?

Oh, you're going to stop

bullshitting now? This is good.

You know,

I was gonna come back.

I was gonna apologize

to you both.

But after this sh*t you just pulled?

You just f***ed yourself, John.

What are you gonna do?
