Don't tell your sister.

You draw your lines in some pretty strange places, Tim

Try once.

See that?

Was that a joke?

Come on, let's get out of here.

How is it?

I can't subrite my teeth

I can't think straight

Try to think about things never changed

Like, look at the stars.

Same stars,as last week,last year

We were kids,we weren't even born

In a hundred years,

no one will ever know who we were.

They'll know those same stars.

Let's get out of here.

Ohh! Ow!

Hey,what time is it anyway?

Come on.

I would have left first,

but I live here.

I don't know

what just happened.

Don't say that, Kyle.

What,man?What do you want me to say?

It's the ecstasy

The ecstasy?

Listen Tim,I'm,I'm not,

New British Office,Ben Travis

Please leave a message.

Frankly Client,

How can I transfer your call?

yes,er,I'd like to speak to Ben Travis

This is his wife

I keep getting his voice mail

One moment, please.

Sandy,Bob

Ben's not here.

He's still on leave

Leave?

Sandy,it was...it was clear to us that Ben wasn't that happy

being cooked up in the office,so...

So the company gave him a

three-month leave of absence.

But if he's not here, he must be--

I'm sorry,I didn't apply anything,I just...

what I mean,What if...

he's not here, where does he go all day?

I don't know what to say.

I love you.

You gotta be kidding me.

You don't look so good.

Do you think it's my fault that he killed himself?

No.

Do you think it was Dad's?

Maybe

I think he does too.

Have you ever considered it?

doesn't everyone?

Sometimes I think you're the only one stopping me

You shouldn't be saying this to me.

I never had this or thousands other

conversations like this with your brother.

We never told each other the truth.

Sometimes I feel like I don't fit into this family.

You're too much like me

People like us,

we don't fit in everywhere.

If there's anything you want from your brother's room,

take it out tonight.

Why?

Because it'll be gone tomorrow.

Sandy, I'm coming over.

Sh*t.

Our sons have taken their brothers to war

Did you know that?

Oh,Jesus f***ing Christ,I'm not the one should be apologizing,Sandy

You f***ed my husband,and now you're the one that won't speak to

me,what kind of black words logic tells you that's valid?

It's not about that

OK,I'm sorry I told Ben,I thought he has the right to know

You don't know,what kind of problem it cost

Sandy, it didn't even phase him.

Your problem went a lot deeper with my big mouth

Marge,show me my life,the way it should work

Show me the life I would have had

Without your big mouth

Show me the life I deserved.

I can't.

You know I have never touched you

F*** off.

That one's for your mom.

Teach him a lesson, huh?

I will f***ing

cut your face off!

Whoa. Whoa

. Come on.

I can't go to community service today.

Don't mention that

Oh,it's your last day

I'm sure I'm gonna miss you

what happened to your nose?

It's war injury I told you

I don't like to talk about it

No I will never get tired of that one

I get very tired of that one.

Sandy!

Sandy!

Mom!

What am I doing here?

Did you do this to me?

No.

Sweety,leave it,leave it

Sandy.

When was the last time you check that

Something is wrong with your body.

I know.

Tim. Tim!

What?

Did you see this note?

No

Com'on,we got to go,we've got to go,Timmy

What happened to your face?

It's nothing,what's happening?

Come sit over here

You guys are speaking again?

Your mom is a strong woman

You mean "b*tch" ,right?

Don't say "b*tch" in the hospital, dear

What am I gonna do?

Start by passing me the joint

In life

What am I gonna do for the rest of my life?

All of a sudden,it matters.

Well,Tim, the secret of a successfull life is finding something you love

Is there somethi

ng that you love?

Yes

Good

Then you have to do that for

the rest of your life.

And you'd better hope you're good at it

because if you feel,then you'll probably fail

How do you know if you are good at it?

I am not good at it

Yes.

People tell you.

Is there such a thing as a human heart?

Now,that is a better quesiton

Well if you listen closely

You can hear him breaking

Are you all right?

It's ok

You okay?

It's all right.

It's all right.

How did we let it happen, Sandy?

Em...I'm not sure exactly which it

we're talking about.

Everything's going to be okay.

We should save what every little money we have left

We both know what the test gonna say

-No,we don't

-Yes,we do

No,we don't

Please,don't make me play this game

This is not a f***ing game

I am not gonna stand around while another member

step away and kill himself

Okay?

So...until those tests come back...

Okay, Ben.

Okay.

It's time to go home you guys.

Your dad is waiting outside

Say good night

Could you please

hand me the notebook?

Sandy has streptoccal in the

in affection of lung

but the tumers we found there are benign

However, that doesn't mean she's in the clear.
