[Kim] I didn't mean it, Mom.

Maybe it was just a side-effect

of the drugs or something.

[Anna] Kim, can

you please be quiet?

Do your legs hurt,

do they feel numb?

Does your back hurt,

has it started yet?

(light music)

Dad!

Quick, Bob's dying!

Dad!

Bob's dying!

Dad.

Who's your best friend?

I don't know, Bob.

I have three.

Two boys and a girl in my class.

That's great, Bob.

It's good to have

a lot of friends.

Bob's eyes are bleeding.

Come to the living room.

- Now?

- Yes.

Now.

Steven, where

are the children?

They're already there.

I think I'm gonna wear that

black dress that you like.

Wear whatever you want.

Just hurry.
