- I'm not waiting anymore, Anna.

I wanna talk to you now.

- Okay, just wait,

I'm gonna come out, okay.

Clare, it's okay, I got it, okay.

Jacob!

Shh, do you have to do that?

Please Jacob, I really,

it was an accident.

I really didn't mean it.

Jacob, please, you don't know!

It's nonsense, don't you dare!

Don't you dare!

Jacob please!

Anna.

Anna, ever since you've been

here my anxiety is coming back.

And something's wrong,

like I can barely breath.

I'm having really bad heart palpitations.

It's such a weird feeling.

I'm sorry, Anna, I'm sorry,

but you have to leave.

- Sh*t.

I thought having you here

might mellow her out.

- This has been

your third ultrasound,

and we've come up with

nothing that's wrong with her.

- But why am I having

so many weird symptoms,

like I've had this weird pain that's been

shooting up the side of my arm.

It just feels like there's

something going on,

and I know you're saying that I was fine,

but you told me that I

was fine before, remember?

I came into you and you

told me that I was okay.

Yeah, and I told you that

I had a lot of pressure.

So, why did you tell me

that I was okay then?

- You were okay then.

There are some things we can test for,

and some things they

just happen in nature.

- But remember, I should

have gotten that other test

where, remember, you

took, they asked me to do

that cervical exam, and then I declined.

Maybe that was the thing,

maybe that was the thing that did it.

- Clare, you did nothing wrong.

- But then I remember I had a lot of fear,

I had a lot of fear,

and I had a lot of negative

thoughts, you know.

I kept thinking that maybe

something was gonna go wrong,

and then I kept coming in to see you,

but you told me I was okay, Doctor,

and then maybe it was

something that you did,

or you guys, or what about the hospital?

- No, no, the

hospital checked everything.

They ran the tests as they do...

- But they weren't checking my blood.

They weren't checking my urine.

Maybe if they had done that,

they would have found

that I had an infection.

Maybe if they had given me antibiotics?

Maybe something could've been different.

- These things

happen in nature everyday.

They just happen.

- I wanted to wait and make sure

everything was alright first,

but I'm pregnant.

I've gone to the doctors,

and I've gotten checked out,

and everything seems to be alright.

- This is something to be

happy about, congratulations.

- I'm happy now, I'm not in pain anymore.

- A lot of change, a lot of change.

That's great, well, we're

real excited for you.

- Don't be so hard on yourself.

- What?

- How are you dear?

How are you really?

He wants me to tell you that he's alright.

And that it wasn't your fault.

- Can you give me CPA

Hospital of Los Angeles?

Can you please connect me to room 305?

He checked out?

- Mommy, get me out of the car!

- If I'm not here, they'll be better.

I'm not fit.

It's better if someone takes him.

I know what I did was wrong.

- Please, I never

pictured burying my baby.

Please, I never pictured burying my baby.

- Hi.

- I don't want you here.

- Jacob.

This is my house too.

- You're lucky I haven't

pressed charges, Anna.

- Please, Jacob, I'm

sorry, I didn't think.

- I don't wanna confuse Jasper.

- Is he here?

I was, I've been so worried.

Can I just, he's alright, right?

He's alright?

- He's recovering, get it?

You almost killed him, Anna, get it?

- I didn't mean to, it was an accident.

- I want you to go.

- Please, I just wanna see him.

Just for a minute, please.

- I want you to go, Anna.

- I just wanna tell him,

please, Jacob, please!

Just for a minute!

- No!

- Jacob!

- Go!

Glorious thing

- Clare.

Jesus Christ, Clare.

Jesus, Clare, what did you do to yourself?

- I fell, I just fell.

- Clare.

- It's okay, it's alright.

- Baby, what

did you do to yourself?

- I just, please, leave me alone.

- Clare!

I was there when they

turned the machines off too.

- Please, please,

speak to me.

Please.

Why did this happen to me?

Why is this happening to me?

What have I done wrong? I'm sorry.

I'm sorry, please forgive me.

I can't get out of here, it

feels so dark, I can't breathe.

Please help me, what have I done wrong?

I'm sorry.

It's too dark.

I'm sorry.

It's my fault, please.

Forgive me.

I'm frightened.

I'm sorry.

I'm so tired.

My mind, it hurts.

It's too dark.

I'm sorry.

It's my fault.

I can't see.

It's my fault.

I can't see.

I can't take it anymore.

I can't breath.

My mind, it hurts.

I can't get out of here.

It feels so dark.

Please forgive me.

Must've been something I did.

Whatever I've done.

What did I do wrong?

Why is this happening.

- What did I do wrong?

Why is this happening to me?

- I'm so full of fear.

- It's my fault.

- Mom, it's me.

I'm okay.

It was supposed to be like this, remember?

- I can't keep driving around in circles.

I need to confess.

I need to get him back.

- Expect that

his savings would suffer.

- That seems like robbery.

They're just coming in and

taking money off people

without any money in the bank.

It's supposed to be secure, right?

They just took it.

- Dad, what happened? What did she say?

- They want her to appear

in court, in court.

The hand with the papers

said she was served,

then she takes off like

you two always use to,

never said a word to me.

Clare, it's unforgivable, that poor kid.

Of all things I've said or done,

I'd never, would never in a million years

do something like that.

Its unforgivable, that poor child,

I mean, you're accusing me

of things, I would never.

- I know where she is.

I'm gonna go look for her.

Anna!

Anna.

Anna, open the door.

Anna, what are you doing?

Come on, Anna, you need to open the door.

This is not helping.

It's too hot.

- Just close the door.

- I'm not gonna close the door...

- Close the f***in' door, Clare, okay!

- Can we open the window?

- Just be quiet.

- What are you doing?

- I wanna know what it

felt like to be him,

I wanna know how he felt.

Now, you can listen to me.

No one ever has time for my life.

Jasper was sick again,

and Jacob's been in a pissy

mood since his dad died,

you were missing in action.

Another f***ing day I couldn't stand.

He's yelling, "Let me out the car, Mommy!

"I wanna get out the car!"

- Mommy, get me out the car!

- Please, okay, stop screaming at me!

I'm lost, Jasper, please

stop screaming at me.

Mommy doesn't know where the hell I am.

This stupid thing is not working anymore!

This is the road we were driving on.

Right here, I'm driving

and he's screaming.

"I want to get out of the car!

"Let me out of the car!"

I'm losing my mind!

"Jasper, please stop it, Mommy's lost!"

- No!

- Maybe he'll stop if I swerve.

Please, okay, stop screaming at me!

I pull up right here.

"Jasper, please stop screaming at me.

"Mommy is lost.

"I need you to stop screaming at me!"

- No!

- Just stay here, scream
