Mom and Dad Page #3

All right,

but isn't it a fact

that we still have no real idea

what is causing this?

It could be

a natural phenomenon,

but let's just postulate

someone wants to wipe us out,

so they create

a biological weapon

or a neurotoxin which attacks

a very hard-wired human impulse,

which is to protect our young.

Any parent would rush out

in front of a speeding car,

or an oncoming train

or even a wild animal

to save their child,

but if you could take

that natural human impulse

and reverse it,

you wouldn't have

to wipe us out,

because at that point,

we ourselves

would be wiping out

our own future.

Kendall!

Oh, Jeannie!

It's about time, woman!

- Damn.

- Are you the father?

- No, I'm the...

- No, he's the boyfriend.

It's complicated. Dan the man.

I hope you remembered

to bring your camera.

Motherf***er!

I can't do this! I can't!

Dan, Dan, are you sure

you don't want to wait outside?

This might be a little more

than you signed up for.

This thing is f***ed up!

Holy f***ing sh*t!

How have you done this twice?

- You're inhuman.

- Easy there.

Less talking. More breathing.

- Okay.

- We're almost there.

80 percent dilated.

She's good to go, Doctor.

- Hey, I know it hurts. I know.

- This f***ing sucks!

I know this hurts, Mama,

but trust me.

The second you see

that beautiful baby

and hear that voice,

everything will just disappear.

It's some kind of magic,

okay? Trust me.

It will go away.

It's probably

just the drugs kicking in.

No, no, Jeannie.

It's something else.

It's... It's love kicking in,

okay? So just let it come.

And push!

Do you mind? Do you mind?

Are you getting this?

Get this.

Good job, Mama.

Look at that beautiful girl!

Very strong voice.

I bet Mommy wants

to hold her daughter.

Jeannie?

Jeannie?

Jeannie, you're

holding her too tight.

- Stop.

- Stop, Jeannie.

- No! No, no, no! Jeannie!

- Security!

- Call security!

- Okay.

- Stop her!

- No!

You're holding her too tight!

- No, no, no.

- Jeannie!

What's happening

with her?

Jeannie! Jeannie, let go!

Security!

No!

Jeannie, let go.

It must have been love

But it's over now...

Call security.

No! Keep her back.

Jeannie!

It must have been love...

Jeannie!

Why is this happening to her?

What the hell is going on?

From the moment we touched

'Til the time it ran out...

What the hell

is happening here?

Security!

Jeannie! Oh, it's me!

What is happening?

- No! No! No!

- It's me! It's me!

- I got you! I got you!

- Damon. The guy, he...

Don't worry.

He doesn't want us.

Come on. Come on.

But...

Damon, what happened

to your arm?

Sweetie,

where's your brother?

He's at home with...

- with Sun-Yi.

- What about your folks?

My dad's at work,

and my mom is...

She's at the gym with...

We have to go.

We have to go right now!

Hey, um...

I'm not taking any calls,

all right?

What about your wife?

Oh, especially not.

God damn it, Brent.

It's okay. It's okay.

Excuse me, ma'am.

You're the mother's sister?

Yes. Is she okay?

She's fine.

She's been sedated.

Sedated.

We need to ask

for the baby.

No. I think I need

to keep her close with me.

Ma'am, I need you

to give her the child.

But this is my family.

Ma'am, I'm sorry,

but we must insist.

It's for the child's safety.

Please understand.

No. No.

What is this?

What is going on here?

We're not sure,

but until we know more,

we need to protect

the children.

Oh...

Okay.

Unspoken love

If I could only tell you

What's in my heart

But it would be so wrong

A lonely song of love

That just can never be

There's nothing left for me

But love

Sun.

Sun, is everything all right

over there?

Hi, Ms. Ryan.

Everything is fine.

How 'bout your sister?

Did she have the baby?

Okay, stop. Is...

Oh, is Joshua all right?

Uh, Joshua, he's fine.

I make him lunch.

He's hiding

around here somewhere.

Okay, is... is Mr. Ryan home?

No. He go to work.

Okay, you haven't heard

from him?

No, Ms. Ryan.

Is everything okay?

No. Listen, I am coming home.

Whose car is that?

The housekeeper's.

My dad doesn't get home

'til late.

All right, let's do this fast.

We're gonna go in.

We're gonna get

your little brother,

and get the hell out, okay?

Okay.

Sun-Yi?

Carly, you're home.

Why you not at school?

We left early today.

Okay. Come here.

I make you the lunch.

That's your boyfriend?

Mr. Ryan say no boyfriend

in the house.

You understand me?

We're only here for a minute,

okay? Uh, where's Joshua?

In his room.

I don't know

why he's not come out.

Oh, my God.

I can't get this stain

out of the floor!

No, you need... you need...

you need to leave, okay?

You need to go right now.

I clean the mess,

and then I go.

No! You need

to leave right now!

Don't worry about the cleaning!

Just get out of the house!

- Go get your brother.

- Get out!

You want the lunch, kid?

I'm good.

Everybody so crazy today.

I don't understand

why they so crazy today.

I don't clean the kitchen.

I don't know

who's clean the kitchen.

Josh?

Where are you, bro?

Hey, are you okay?

Lisa.

Something bad happened to Lisa.

I know. I know. I know.

In Chinese... I didn't...

She didn't do anything wrong.

- I know, okay? I know.

- Why'd she do it?

Just listen to me.

I know. I know you're scared.

But we have

to get out of the house

before Mom and Dad come home.

I think it's

horrible what's happening.

- Yes.

- I only wish that I...

Intellectually,

I should feel devastated.

This should be

the most awful thing

that could happen to anybody.

I get that...

but it's just not.

Look...

I'm trying to summon up

some crocodile tears for you

just so you don't think

I'm a monster...

but I can't.

So you think it's good,

what's happening?

Absolutely not.

I think it's horrible

what's happening.

But for you...

It was exactly right.

What the hell

are you doing here?

It's not what you think,

Mr. Ryan.

What are you doing

in my house?

Is my daughter here?

Carly? Joshua?

Is that Dad? I want Dad.

No, we have to leave,

God damn it.

- I need to get my backpack.

- Why?

Fine. Just get it.

Mr. Ryan, we...

we need to talk, sir.

Oh, do we need to talk?

Yeah, we do need to talk.

You can't be here.

This is not about me and Carly.

- It's about what's happening.

- I get exactly...

...what's happening.

It's called hormones.

Shh.

Yeah, believe it or not,

I used to be young once, too,

and actually,

not all that long ago,

by the way. And I think

about how things were

- in my day.

- Mr. Ryan...

But now...

the world you kids

are living in,

the things you've seen

on the Internet,

mouth to dildo,

dildo to ass,

ass to ass.

Hi, Brent, anal beads,

things I only saw

in magazines!

No!

And the expectations

that must come with that.

Dad?

Yes

Daddy!

Come on!

Dude.

Right here.

Right here.

Yeah, that's sexy. Okay.

Hey, where's Spot?

Mom, where's Spot?

He ran away!

Run, Spot, run

Run, Spot, run

At 6:
00

The milkman comes around
