My Soul To Take Page #6

Brandon's the one for

you, Brit. He's a diamond.

A diamond in the rough,

I admit,

but a diamond

just the same.

Compared to him,

Bug's a lump of coal.

I know. Church in two hours. I'll be there.

I'll be home

in two shakes. Bye.

Hey, Brittany!

Training for the

marathon, Brandon?

Yeah. You know,

I got to keep in shape.

You're in great shape.

You got time

for that oral?

You're like a crotch dog.

You know, the kind that stick their nose

in your crotch when you're not looking?

It's like a handshake,

really.

My father had a crotch dog.

Mom had it put

out of its misery.

Misery is what

I'm talking about.

Come on, Brittany, I went

the extra mile for you today.

I could've gotten

expelled for that eight.

Plus, I got sh*t on twice.

Once by a Jesus freak,

once by

a f***ing buzzard.

Condor.

It's just got me tense.

Start a hobby.

This is my hobby.

Besides, it's my birthday.

It's all of our birthdays.

I know, but I need it.

And I want it.

It should make

you feel special.

Come on. Fang thinks

we're a good match.

Fang doesn't run

my private life.

Does she know that?

Because I could bring

her up to speed.

You threatening me?

I'm begging you.

In the woods.

You hate the woods.

It's spring. I'm feeling

romantic. Count to 60.

You tricking me?

I got a temper.

You're not

the only one.

Sixty seconds.

Fifty.

Forty-two.

Thirty.

Fifteen.

Three.

Hey, Brittany!

Hey, you f***ing b*tch!

Hey!

Hey! Wait!

Hey, Brittany!

Where did you go?

Brittany!

Brittany!

Penelope?

Penelope.

Now you're going to get it.

- Hello?

- Just because she embarrassed you

in front of me,

you killed her?

You are going to burn in hell. What?

Better start running

the other way, Brandon.

I've called the police.

What? No, no. Brittany,

Brittany. Don't! Don't!

Brittany, Brittany, Brittany!

Please don't get

me arrested, all right?

I knocked up

Principal Pratt's daughter.

He'll have me

murdered in my cell.

Hey, do you understand

what I'm saying?

Brittany, look,

I know you're there.

I can hear you

walking. Just...

I understand that

you don't want to talk.

I probably disgust you.

It's okay, I disgust myself, sometimes.

I know I'm a pig.

I can't help it.

No! Pigs are nicer.

Actually, I'm just what you

said. I'm a f***ing crotch dog.

I'm sorry.

It's too late to be sorry.

Who is this?

Someone from your past.

You wouldn't remember.

Put Brittany on, please.

She's not here.

Well, where is she?

Where you're going to go.

I'm going to go

to the church.

No, you're not.

What do you mean,

"No, I'm not?"

Think hotter.

Miami?

Try hell!

Anybody you want

to say goodbye to?

My unborn child.

F*** your f***ing

unborn child.

Now, where did

I leave your b*tch?

What?

Whose phone?

Oh, my God.

This is Riverton 9-1-1.

Please hold.

All our circuits are busy. We will

get to your call as soon as we can.

Be home, Bug Hellerman.

Okay, 10:
00 a.m., Boston

Psychiatric Clinic. I got to go.

Oh.

Wow!

I'm sorry I'm so late.

You should be.

Have a seat.

You're too big to spank.

Okay.

Sweater.

Did you fall?

I was burying a friend.

My condor.

Brandon ruined it.

I gave it a decent burial.

You gave me a start.

Why, you think

I killed somebody?

No, of course not.

Make a wish.

Do you want to know

what I wished for?

No.

I wished that I could

take back what I did today

and make you proud

of me instead.

I was trying

to get my phone back,

the one you gave me, and

unfortunately, I fell into the toilet.

My phone fell into Brittany Cunningham's bag

and I didn't have

a chance to get it out.

What was your phone doing in the

girls' bathroom in the first place?

We were trying to gather some

information about something.

Don't tell me.

You and Alex?

I wanted to know what

Brittany thought of me.

Brittany Cunningham?

She's a little sophisticated

for you, isn't she?

I like her.

So did you find out

what she thinks of you?

She thinks he's a retard like everyone else.

Do not use that

word in this house!

It's okay.

Just because Leah says mean

things, doesn't make them so.

What if they are so?

What?

They are.

Watch your nuts,

little squirrel.

Leah told Brittany that I

had been in institutions.

That I had killed people.

Have I?

Leah will say anything.

You don't have the most

supportive sister in the world.

Who are you calling?

Your phone.

Mom! Come on, Mom.

No, please.

Hey.

Hey.

Penelope Bryte.

Done with a knife,

just like the others.

Oh, f***.

Hey, Frank!

Keeps going to voicemail.

She's with Brandon.

How did you know that?

I just do.

Time for presents.

Well, this is a first.

I don't give gifts

just to give them, May.

Gifts should mean something.

Happy sweet 16th.

What is it?

Open it.

I don't understand.

Bug!

Huh?

Go to your room, now!

What did I do?

Just go!

What?

No, leave

that thing here.

Leah gave it to me,

so I guess it's mine.

How could you?

Somebody's got

to bust his cherry.

I'm sorry to hit you.

But you deserve it.

Your friends

are calling, May.

They want you at the

church so you can all lie

to each other again.

You know? How God works in mysterious ways

and how everything

works out for the good

if you just keep

repeating the lies.

Like, "The Ripper's dead,

he's not coming back."

Would it kill you to look at

things positively just once, Leah?

You're scared

of being human.

You get your friends

to do your dirty work.

You're still in

high school at 19

because you're too chicken-sh*t

to get on with your life.

You hide behind what

should be dead and buried.

Like you hide

behind me and Bug?

And my mother?

No, I did what I did to save

Bug from what you've become.

And because my sister

had more heart and courage

on any given day than you have

had in your whole miserable life!

F*** you, May.

Hi.

F*** you, too!

Leah.

Thanks, Leah.

That felt good.

Why do you hate me? I've

never done anything to you.

You've ruined my life!

That's what you've done,

you little sh*t!

Why?

Why?

I will tell you why,

maggot.

From the moment

you were born

everything went

to sh*t for me!

You were the miracle baby,

and I was the

painful reminder!

You got to live

in this dream

and I got stuck in

a f***ing nightmare!

I am sick to death

of your innocence!

It is an insult to me!

Why am I innocent?

You are so clueless,

it is stunning!

Tell me.

Do you know

who your father was?

May said that

he loved us very much.

But who was he?

I don't know.

He died in a car crash.

On the way to the

hospital to be with May

when she was

having you, right?

Yeah.

What a sad,

yet beautiful story.

Have you ever asked yourself why

May doesn't ever talk about him?

Or why there isn't a single f***ing

picture of him around the house?

Maybe it's too painful.

Do you know who

Abel Plenkov was?

The Riverton Ripper?

Besides that?

No.

Take a look

in the mirror, Bug.

Remember how much

I loved you, Leah.

Leah, unlock

the door for Daddy.
