If I Stay Page #3

Keep two on hold.

DOCTOR 22 I think we're gonna

need a lot more than that.

Let's see if we can

track down her relatives, please.

Right away, sir.

One of her parents

is on their way to OR four now.

Dad?

We just have to

relieve the swelling.

For a guy who was in such a bad

car wreck, he really lucked out.

Hey, Mia! Look what

I found loitering out front.

Do we want him?

I was hungry.

Well, I'm glad you came.

Because you're hungry and we

have food for you to eat, or...

Well, food to eat

is my favorite.

Out of my way, people. I just

worked a double and I need to feast.

I'm eatin' dim sum

for a twosome.

Hey, what's up, Willow?

Welcome, Adam.

It's nice to see ya.

Play your cards right, we

might make you a regular.

Okay, Mom, we got it.

Thanks.

Come on.

Okay, so who is it? Bobby

Schayer from Bad Religion.

Tim Leitch from FEAR.

Tim Leitch from FEAR.

The guy from Dead Moon.

Andrew Loomis.

And the guy from The Wipers, Sam Henry.

So if you think about it,

Portland's kind of like a haven

for legendary punk drummers, right'?

That's a good point.

Mia' your man knows

his punk rock history.

Thanks.

QM!

Oh, my God! Oh, God,

something just stung me.

Who does that?

A bee?

Babe, are you sure it's

a bee? ADAM:
Oh, yeah.

We got to get

the stinger out.

No, we're not doing that

Trust me, this is this only

thing I learned in Boy Scouts.

Got it.

Way hotter than tweezers.

Stand down, woman.

You're already knocked up.

You know, you should get

stung more often.

I'm sorry to say that's

the furthest we've gotten

since our first date.

Yeah. Maybe we should

do something about that.

I like where

your head's at, Hall.

Adam?

I'm coming up.

No, you cannot come up.

I have something

to tell you.

Besides, it's too late.

I'm already climbing.

Oh, God.

Okay. Um...

Oh! Schroeder.

Um...

Hey.

Hey.

I thought

you went home.

I got lost.

Did you actually learn that

beesting thing from the Boy Scouts?

No, I totally made it up.

I just really wanted

to suck your hand

in front of all

your parents' friends.

What did you want

to tell me?

Today was awesome.

You guys are like

a real family here.

I don't think I've ever seen

one of those up close.

It's impressive.

Yeah, well, trust me, it

hasn't always been that way.

When I was a kid,

things were so chaotic.

They'd be up late,

so I was up late.

And Dad would be on the

road for weeks at a time.

They didn't really get it

together until Teddy was born.

What about you?

What are your parents like?

They're not really

a part of my life.

Honestly, I can't remember them ever

being in the same place for a meal.

And if you want to track down the

old man, that's gonna take a while.

Son.

Adam.

No, it's cool. I'm good

at being mostly alone.

But that's the thing,

you're not alone.

Not anymore.

Wait.

I need to take it

slow, okay?

I love slow.

And meet

Me there

Bundles of flowers We wait

through the hours of cold

Winter shall howl

at the walls

Tearing down doors of time

Shelter as we go...

ls there enough room?

DOCTOR 22 A little more

underneath, please.

Suture.

There we go.

The surgery's been

going on for hours,

and they're nowhere

near done.

I need to find my family.

Kim?

Kim, wait!

I came here as soon

as I could. What happened?

Is everyone okay?

We don't know.

Gran. Gramps.

We need to find out

what the hell's going on here.

Excuse me,

my name is Estelle Hall.

Our son, Denny Hall,

his wife, Kathleen,

and their two kids

got in a car accident

this morning and we'd like

to find out how they're doing.

Yes, of course.

Mr. and Mrs. Hall?

I'm Liddy.

I'm your social worker.

I've just been

assigned your case.

I am so sorry

for what's happened.

Now, I haven't been able to

speak to anyone's doctors yet,

but I do know that Mia and

Dennis are still in surgery.

Most likely they'll

be heading to the ICU.

There is no information on

Kathleen in the system yet.

But Theodore...

Teddy?

Yes, Teddy.

He was conscious when

he arrived.

He's getting

a CAT scan now.

Why don't you make yourselves

as comfortable as you can

and I will come

and get you the second

I have any

new information. Okay?

Thank you.

Hey, Henry and Willow

are on their way.

And I tried calling Adam

and left a couple messages,

but I haven't heard

anything yet.

There are two types of

people in this world, Kim.

Those who

like real coffee,

and those who like froufrou

drinks with ridiculous names.

Um, wow. You know,

I'm not ashamed to be

a cinnamon-spice

chai latte lover.

Thank you very much.

Yeah, well, it kind of smells like

Christmas threw up in your mug.

Fine by me.

So, Adam.

Is it awesome?

It feels big.

It's crazy. I can't eat,

I can't sleep.

But."

For starters, I hate

going to his shows.

Do you not like

his music, or...

No, I love his music.

He writes these

amazing songs, and...

I don't know,

when he comes off stage

I just wanna, like,

lick the side of his face.

Oh, baby.

But when I hang out

with his crowd,

I just feel like...

Like a fish out of water?

Like a fish on Mars.

Come on, it's not his friends

you're afraid of, ifs him.

I mean, he's older,

he's in a band.

All those girls surrounding him. I mean,

it's scary. I get it.

What if

it doesn't work out?

You gonna be there

to pick up the pieces?

Every last one of 'em.

But if it gets serious,

you better not turn into

one of those girlfriends

who only speaks in

the first person plural.

"We love the winter."

"We never use deodorant"

"We only like quinoa."

If you ever turn into one of

those girls, I'mma gonna shoot ya.

If I ever turn into

one of those girls,

I'mma gonna give

you the gun.

Hey, Mom?

Who's the toughest, hottest

rocker chick you can think of?

Debbie Harry.

Okay, cool.

Or Patti Smith

or Joan Jett.

Lucinda Williams'

even though she's country.

Kim Gordon.

What's this,

a social studies project?

No, it's for Halloween.

Tonight, with Adam.

Oh, you're going

as the rocker chick.

I don't even wanna go.

Bunny rabbit.

What's up?

I wanna dive

into Adam's world.

You know, lwanna be

like his friends.

But what if

I can't pull it off?

The whole messy punk rocker

live-in-the-moment thing.

Then you return all the clothes

to my closet in the morning

and go about your life.

Baby, it's one night.

Right?

I mean, I know

it's not your thing,

but why not try out messy and

in-the-moment and see how it feels.

You might be surprised.

Hey, Adam.

Whoa, Hall. I didn't

think you had it in you.

Whoa, yourself.

I'm Beethoven.

Ludwig.

Come on, let's go.

What's up, Adam?

Debbie Harry

always said,

"A shot before showtime

does the trick." So...

Bottoms up.

Oh, I'm good.

Okay. Well,

it's there if you want it.

Yo, Adam.

We're goin' on.

Okay. I've gotta go

do my set.

No running off

with some me wannabe.

Rn try.

Have fun.

Oh, my God, Mia.

You look amazing. Did

you get this in Seattle?

Hey. Wanna bone?

You're frickin'
