Social Nightmare Page #7
That's what it's got to be.
What?
Yeah.
Taking all the same classes.
Making the same plans.
You guys even go to
the restroom together.
Yeah. We're girls.
That's, like, what we do!
I'm not the one
who took her vulnerable,
trusting first attempts
at sexuality
and just tossed them all out
there for the world to see!
You know, whatever.
Are we done here?
You and I, yeah, we're done.
You know what? I think we're
all pretty much done.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, peace, out!
I know. Shut up.
This sucks.
Dad!
Dad, I got into Brown!
They just...
They said they were
moved by my appeal,
and they're... they're
letting me in!
Dad!
What time is it?
You scared the life out of me.
I wish you wouldn't
sneak up on me like that.
How long was I asleep?
A while.
You probably needed it.
Your body needs to recover
from all that stress.
Ehh. I don't like
this medication.
It makes me sleepy.
Well, the doctor said
that you'd need time
to adjust to it, so...
Is the sun coming up
or going down?
It's evening, honey.
It's almost time for dinner.
Are you hungry?
No.
Oh, Kitty Cat, why don't
you look at that after?
It's from Brown.
Well, maybe after you've
woken up or eaten something.
Let's see.
"We are sorry
to inform you, d...
"due to the extenuating
circumstances,
we have revoked your
acceptance to Brown/RISD."
Oh, baby, I'm so sorry.
I know how hard you've worked.
You could still apply
to community college
and live here and be
near your friends.
I don't have any friends.
I could still look after you.
What are we having for dinner?
I want mac and cheese.
Oh, baby, I think we're out,
but I can make it from scratch.
Mm, I like it from a box.
Okay.
I'll run to the store
and get some.
No, you don't have to do that.
Baby, I love looking after you.
Anything else
you want me to get?
Did you call the school
about my cellphone?
Nobody's turned it in.
Oh. I want
to go look for it.
We did that already, honey.
I talked to the office,
and they said
nobody's turned it in.
Well, I want to go look again,
because somebody
took it, so...
Don't get so upset.
It's probably just
in the house somewhere.
I'm sure I can find it.
Maybe I'll go back to sleep.
I think that's a good idea.
I'm gonna run to the store,
and I'll wake you up
when it's time for dinner.
There's nothing like
a warm mac and cheese
to make all your troubles
fly away, hmm?
HoneyDaddies. This is Miles.
How can I help you?
Finally.
I'm calling again
about an account
on your pervy website.
I'm trying to delete it.
Please hold.
N-No!
No, Daniel.
"Due to the extenuating
circumstances,
we've revoked
your acceptance. "
It's okay, sweetie.
I'm gonna fight this thing all the way.
No, it was me.
I... I started it.
I feel like I'm losing my mind!
No, Daniel.
I understand you want
to remove an account?
Yeah.
I-I'll call you back.
Pick up. Pick...
Thanks for calling,
and have a fantastic day.
Cat, it's me. Please
call me back right away.
I... I think I know
who the hacker is.
Hi. You've reached
Cat's voice mail.
When you hear the beep,
please leave a message.
Thanks for calling,
and have a fantastic day.
No wonder everyone
hates me. I hate me.
Whoa! What the...
Hey! Hey!
You stay away from my daughter!
You stay away from her!
Oh, my God.
No!
Mom.
Oh, my God!
I wish you wouldn't...
Honey, I thought you were
gonna go lay back down.
What?
What?
I saw your computer.
I saw my BuddyMe page.
I saw everything...
all the videos and letters.
What were you doing in my room?
What were you doing
in my room?!
What is this?!
You were spying on me.
Why?
Because I was
worried about you!
And I was right.
You were sneaking boys
into your room,
and you were...
you were drinking.
You were sending nasty
pictures of yourself.
You hacked into my computer!
You... You posted
those disgusting things!
You changed
my AP English final!
You lied to my principal!
You ruined my life.
You're getting hysterical.
I'm calling
Dr. Greenburg.
Oh, Kitty Cat.
Stop calling me that!
What is wrong with you?
I'm protecting you.
It's what I do.
It's my job.
You need help.
I'm leaving.
I'm packing my things.
You can't do that.
You can't do that!
I can't stay here
another second with you!
If you leave, I'll kill myself.
I'll take every one
of your pills.
Oh, stop trying
to manipulate me.
Without you,
I don't want to live.
I don't want to live.
I was an only child
just like you,
and I... I know what
it's like, and it's lonely,
and I tried to give you
a baby brother or a sister,
but I kept losing them,
my poor, beautiful babies.
Then the doctor said that it was
too dangerous to try anymore,
and that's when
your father left.
Oh, Mom...
But I'm so proud of you.
I'm so proud and so happy
that you have so many friends
and you're so popular
and you're into projects and on
teams and you run for office,
and you're just...
You're so amazing,
and that's why I wanted...
I wanted you to feel like
you were part of something.
Then why did you ruin it?
Because I just
can't lose another baby.
Cat!
You've hurt people, Mom,
people who I care about!
They don't care about you!
Cat!
Mom, this is my life!
Stay out of it!
Emily doesn't even care
about your four-year plan!
Stay out of my life!
Cat!
Baby, don't. Don't!
Oh, my God!
Leave us alone!
Stop it! No!
Just leave us alone.
Get off!
Stop it!
Can't take my daughter!
You can't have my daughter!
Stop!
What's your emergency?
It's my mother!
She's attacking my best friend!
Please hurry!
Let go!
Let go!
Let go!
Let go!
Let go! Get off!
Look at yourself!
Look at what you're doing!
Look at what you're doing!
Em! Em!
Breathe.
Breathe.
Breathe. You okay?
Police!
No!
Hey, Hey!
That's enough.
That's enough.
Ma'am, that's enough.
Calm down.
Calm down.
Cat!
Oh, Cat!
Cat!
That's enough.
Cat! Cat!
Calm down, ma'am.
Cat!
Mom.
My baby. My baby.
Better get off that thing.
We don't want to be late for class,
especially after the way Professor
Claude chewed us out last time.
Okay, I'm almost done.
Hmm, Daniel sent you
another one.
So romantic how he
sends you real mail.
Jeez, aren't you
ever gonna forgive him?
I know what he did
was messed up,
but he had...
did have a lot going on
with that whole
birth-mom situation.
I do forgive him.
But?
I can't forget.
Well, plainly that
was a bonehead move.
However, you did look very
hot in those pictures.
Yeah.
At least I'll have something
to show my future grandchildren.
Oh. It's my mom.
I'm out.
She feels really bad.
She asks about you
all the time.
Cool, but I can't forget
either, so see you in class.
Hi, Mom.
Hi, baby. How are you?
Good. Really busy.
How are you doing?
I love it.
How are you feeling?
I'm good.
Still getting used
to being in here.
Don't think I ever will.
I've been doing some painting.
Are they still trying
