I'm the one that gave you

a reason to breathe.

I'm every single f***ing moment

ever mattered in your life.

No, you're not.

I don't even know you.

No? Well...

I'll tell you what.

There was a time I remember

when I was about to go up...

and you begged me not to.

You remember

how scared you were?

And I told you then...

that I was gonna bring you back

a little piece of heaven.

Then you cried.

You remember that?

Well, f***ing a!

I did!

What do you think's inside you?

I gave you heaven.

No, you didn't.

You're not Spencer.

It don't got to be like this,

honey.

Please, come on, now.

Step out of that water.

Please, baby,

get out of that water.

Come on.

Oh, my God.

Please.

Oh, my God.

You killed my sister.

You killed my husband.

I did.

And then I f***ed his wife.

I live there.

I live there...

forever.

No, you don't.

I live there.

No, you don't!

Ready for your first day

of school?

Ready.

Wait.

There's an apple in there,

and I want you guys to eat it.

No trading.

Promise?

Promise.

OK. Give me a kiss.

Go, go, go, go, go.

Be good.

What do you think they'll be

when they grow up?

Grow up?

Give them some time, Susan.

It's their first day of school.

I think...

they're gonna be pilots.

Just like their father.

Step father.

You're their father now.
