dry summer.
You been shopping classifieds?
Yeah, the personals,
"Lonely, creepy bachelor
seeks same."
Oh.
Actually, I'm thinking
about finding a new place.
Neighborhood's a bit
of a ghost town for me.
Have any plans for the summer?
You know, not really.
I don't know.
I make a lot of...
Every summer I make a lot
of big plans, you know?
Whether or not they happen.
Yeah, I know what you mean.
Look, Eric, um...
About that night I, um...
I wanna...
I just want to make sure
that you know that I am...
Rach, hold on!
Rach!
Rachel, listen, listen!
I know how this looks, okay?
Rachel, I know you think
I lied to you.
I know you think I made
this whole thing up
but I didn't, Rach.
Okay, I didn't!
Everything else
I told you was true.
No, it wasn't.
Four months ago, she disappeared
without any warning whatsoever.
She moved 3,000 miles away
and I was never
going to see her again, ever!
And yet, here she is.
Rach, until today,
she might as well
have been dead.
Eric, Eric!
If she was dead, you would never
have to explain it, ever!
And you asked
what you wanted
And the rest, it begins
With attacking tone
For crying,
I don't understand
When you find it's over
Seeing the light up ahead
Is the darkness over
Starting to break and forget
Cause I know one way out
They seemed to have isolated
themselves to the inner thigh.
Everything else
looks pretty good.
How much longer do you think?
Till they go away.
You still think
about something else
each time I spray?
Yup.
Still the same thing?
Really depends.
Okay, you're good for today.
Let's see.
It's pretty good, huh?
I thought the cold sore one
had a better ending
but that is a pretty solid
page turner.
What are you doing here?
Dr. Rice is my dermatologist.
Dr. Rice is my father.
Small world.
Hey sweetie.
Hi.
Here they are.
Thank you, thank you.
Um.
So, I guess
you already know Eric Battie?
Yes, indeed I do.
Eric and I, uh...
We both used to go
to that group together.
Ah, oh.
Oh.
Well, I have someone waiting.
- Okay.
- Have fun, sweetie.
Thanks.
Any plans?
Another wedding.
Have you been going to the...
Yeah, me neither, obviously.
Well, I mean, don't worry.
No one knows about it.
I didn't belong there
to begin with.
Besides, I'm actually
moving back downtown.
When?
Today.
Yeah, I think it's more my speed
and plus it's closer to school.
Oh, so you decided to go back?
Yeah, figured I'd give it
another shot.
Well, um, good luck with that.
Thanks.
Enjoy the wedding.
Did you talk to her?
What did she have to say?
Doesn't matter.
Anyway, she took off again, so.
- She did?
- Yeah, she was just in town
picking up the rest
of her stuff.
She's back in Oregon for good.
Did you say anything to her?
Yeah, I told her to find
a good dermatologist.
Well, I'm gonna go.
It was good seeing you again.
It's from my brother.
Oh.
How's he doing?
Surviving.
Rachel... I'm so sorry.
I never meant to...
I just...
I couldn't shake it.
I couldn't shake the feeling
that someone had died.
I was certain of it
but I was wrong about who.
Eric, no part of you has died.
- Eric.
- I can't imagine
what you went through.
I just can't imagine.
How did you survive?
Thank you.
- Oh, man.
- We're going downtown?
Yes.
Yes, please.
