So This Is Christmas Page #7

Nobody knows but Mac.

You're pretty great, Nicole.

What's the matter, nick?

Ken and the bar boys

not enough action for you?

You have to steal my boyfriend?

( CHUCKLING )

this is too funny.

I know what this

must look like,

But it's...

( LAUGHING )

I'm laughing.

JONATHAN:
Wha...

( GRUNTS )

Have a little faith in me.

I do. Very little.

Wanna reconsider that promise?

# If I knew now

# What I knew then

# If I hadn't forgotten #

# What we meant

# If I held on

# Though the hard times

# If I'd done what I needed #

# To make things right

# I'd know love #

# Before I lost it

# If I hadn't forgotten #

What are you doing in my room?

"Sharon's had it so tough.

I'm going to take care

of Jason until she's ready."

Your mother never really

loved the band like I did.

But she loved me and bill.

We thought we were

doing what she wanted.

What are you talking about?

You're a lot like her.

You're both so pretty.

Are you okay?

I watched you

sell Amandas things.

Have you been stealing my things

and selling them, too?

Honestly, Sharon, I haven't.

No... Why would I?

( SIGHS )

I don't know how

to be a good mother.

You're starting

to freak me out.

Why doesn't my son like me?

I'm gonna go get daddy.

I've pushed bill away.

Is he gonna leave me, too?

( SIGHS ) Why don't you just...

give me the diary?

No!

No, no.

Sharon!

What is going on?

( SIGHS )

Hey, sorry to come by so late.

Your mom's not home, right?

No, night shift again.

What's wrong?

Everything.

Just take this...

Most of it's yours, anyway.

Okay, well, come in.

Well, where's Jonathan?

With my ex-Best friend.

And Sharons freaking out

about something.

I don't know.

Will you help me with this?

Yeah.

( SIGHS )

Men are pond scum.

( CHUCKLES )

But... what are you gonna do?

( SIGHS )

honestly, I have no idea.

But I've talked to god

about it,

And I know that

he's forgiven me,

Which is definitely

More than I can

say for my mom at the moment.

So you talk to god directly?

Of course. Don't you?

Oh, yeah, all the time.

( SIGHS )

All I know is Jason

needs to get off the drugs.

Himself.

He has to decide.

Have you decided

If you're gonna

keep the baby, or...

go to school?

Both.

You can't be anything

if you haven't finished school.

W-What are you gonna

do when the baby comes?

Well my mom won't kick me out,

And since she works nights,

She'll be able to watch

the baby during the day.

I'm gonna try to work

for a store doing alterations

So I can be with her at night.

I see you've

decided it's a girl.

( CHUCKLES )

have you named her yet?

Shut up.

( CHUCKLES )

( KNOCKING ON DOOR )

I'm popular tonight.

( SIGHS )

You must be the angel.

I'm a friend of jazz.

I know who you are,

and you're not welcome here.

Who are you?!

Leave her alone!

( PHONE RINGING )

Angelina's mom

has already called the cops.

Your brother's an idiot.

GEO:
I'm not.

Whore's mom works nights.

That's when he gets

his free piece of ass.

Ain't that right?

( BREATHING HEAVILY )

Jazz...

is a very disappointing boy.

But... you already knew that,

didn't you?

Jason's too good for you.

( GASPING )

( GRUNTS )

Let her go, geo.

( WHIMPERING )

Everybody's here.

Nice.

I said, "let her go"!

( WHIMPERING )

( GROANING )

The money, jazz!

I don't have it.

Search him.

( GRUNTING )

I don't have it!

GIRL:
What?!

( CHOKING ) Nothin'.

Then this is our lucky night.

( ANGELINA GASPS )

( WHIMPERING )

( CLOTHING RIPS )

B*tch!

( GRUNTS )

( YELLS )

( GUN C*CKS )

We're gonna try this again.

This time

I want a better answer.

The money is where?

( GRUNTING )

It's outside.

Under the doormat.

( YELPS )

I-I brought it...

for the baby.

Money.

You give that back!

( GROANS )

Money.

GEO:
Easy.

You're okay.

( GROANS )

( YELLS )

Just chill.

( GASPING )

( GROANS )

( SOBBING )

( CRIES )

Ah!

( SOBBING )

The lord is my shepherd.

I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down

in green pastures.

Oh...

he leadeth me

beside still waters.

He restores my soul.

Shut up with that religious sh*t.

Yea, though I walk

Though the valley of the shadow of death...

GEO:
Get the money.

I will fear no evil, for you are...

( SOBBING ) Where's the money?

( GASPS )

No.

( YELLS )

ANGELINA:

Thy rod and thy staff,

They comfort me.

( SOBBING )

O lord, please!

( CRIES ) ( GRUNTS )

( GEO SCREAMING )

( ANGELINA PRAYING )

ANGELINA:
Though the valley

of the shadow of death.

Thy rod and thy staff,

they comfort me.

You prepareth a table

in the presence of my enemies.

Stop!!!

He anointeth my head with oil.

Get geo.

Let's get out of here.

Surely goodness and...

And mercy shall follow me

all the days of my life.

Take it easy.

You don't wanna hurt anybody.

( SIREN BLARING )

That everything?

Pretty much.

Okay.

Then, um,

We're done with you for now.

In the morning, I'll need you

to come down, and, uh,

Identify the accused.

Officer,

Do you think we could

have our costume money back?

The play is only

a few days away.

Mmm, right now,

it's still evidence

Confiscated at the scene

of the crime.

I have to have that money.

Those kids are counting on me.

I-I gave them my word.

I'm sorry.

There's nothing I can do.

So what made you come tonight?

I needed to see you.

But when you weren't home,

I figured you were at Angelinas.

After your date with Nicole?

It wasn't a date.

I mean, I wish you would

just listen to me so I could...

( JASON SCREAMING )

Let me go!

Give him the sedative now.

Let me go! Let me go!

JASON:
Let me go!

Is Jason gonna be all right?

The gunshot wounds

were superficial.

He had so many drugs

in his system

That he's actually doing better

now with the transfusions

We've given him.

Can you help him?

I mean, with the addiction?

We can monitor and assist

with withdrawal now.

But ultimately,

whether he stays clean,

It's up to him.

Right.

H-How soon can he come home?

He could go to jail.

But I am recommending

That he sign himself

into a rehab center.

Oh, thank you so much.

No, Jason... Jason...

Oh.

Is not going to jail.

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

That's our son

lying back there.

And that's our daughter

that almost got shot.

God!

Oh, my god.

Oh, baby.

Oh, god.

( SOBBING )

Sharon.

( SOBBING )

I haven't always

done what's right in the past.

I know that. But...

Bill!

Our whole world

is falling apart.

Let me finish.

What I want

to tell you, baby...

( SIGHS )

( CRYING )

Nothing in our lives

Has worked out

the way we wanted.

But believe it or not,

baby, I love you,

( WHISPERS ) And I want

our family to work.

It's up to us

to work things out.

Look at me.

( SIGHS )

( SOBBING ) Oh, oh, come here.

Come here, baby.

( SOBBING ) My girl.

Who's my girl?

I am.

I really enjoyed practicing

with you the other day.

( CHUCKLES )

Me too.

More than you know.

( SIGHS )

( WHISPERS ) I love you.

I love you, too.

( GASPS )

I'm caught.

I'm caught.

Stand still.

Stand still.
