- It's terrible.

669

00:
49:01,012 -- 00:49:04,017

- That's terrible.

- It's terrible.

670

00:
49:04,236 -- 00:49:05,702

That's...

671

00:
49:05,895 -- 00:49:08,378

Yeah, it's... That's terrible.

672

00:
49:09,307 -- 00:49:11,391

It's a personal question...

673

00:
49:11,580 -- 00:49:15,569

...but have you ever been

through anything like that?

674

00:
49:15,756 -- 00:49:18,396

- Me? No. No, no.

- No.

675

00:
49:23,868 -- 00:49:25,552

When I was...

676

00:
49:26,139 -- 00:49:28,193

When I was 16...

677

00:
49:29,612 -- 00:49:33,080

...I was completely in love

with this guy.

678

00:
49:34,006 -- 00:49:35,836

He played guitar...

679

00:
49:36,799 -- 00:49:38,485

...and I ran away from home...

680

00:
49:38,673 -- 00:49:41,953

...and went to San Francisco

so I could go live with him.

681

00:
49:43,067 -- 00:49:46,040

Yeah, he convinced me

I had a beautiful voice...

682

00:
49:47,397 -- 00:49:49,973

...and I dreamed of becoming a singer.

683

00:
49:51,545 -- 00:49:53,044

I love San Francisco.

684

00:
49:53,235 -- 00:49:55,935

Yeah, he was...

He was my first love.

685

00:
49:57,165 -- 00:49:59,313

Probably the only one.

686

00:
50:00,731 -- 00:50:04,534

- He must have been a great guy.

- I don't... I don't know, I...

687

00:
50:04,818 -- 00:50:07,789

He may have been. It didn't last

long enough for me to find out.

688

00:
50:07,979 -- 00:50:10,556

Yeah. Truth is, I...

689

00:
50:10,806 -- 00:50:13,447

I can't even remember

what he looked like.

690

00:
50:13,940 -- 00:50:15,501

- Really?

- Yeah.

691

00:
50:15,691 -- 00:50:17,249

Then that's too bad.

692

00:
50:17,440 -- 00:50:20,509

My dad... My dad showed up, actually.

693

00:
50:20,697 -- 00:50:22,102

- You were in trouble.

- He came in.

694

00:
50:22,326 -- 00:50:25,575

Yeah, I was in trouble.

He yanked me back to Chicago.

695

00:
50:25,952 -- 00:50:27,573

Yeah.

696

00:
50:28,530 -- 00:50:30,824

And he was sick, and he...

697

00:
50:31,018 -- 00:50:35,682

He had these... These dreams

of me becoming a doctor, you know?

698

00:
50:38,114 -- 00:50:41,761

You know, and eventually,

they became my dreams too.

699

00:
50:44,659 -- 00:50:46,408

He was right.

700

00:
50:47,484 -- 00:50:50,332

You know, I...

I feel good helping people.

701

00:
50:57,131 -- 00:50:59,057

Then he died.

702

00:
51:03,704 -- 00:51:05,390

Kate.

703

00:
51:07,545 -- 00:51:09,197

What?

704

00:
51:16,792 -- 00:51:18,748

I...

705

00:
51:21,059 -- 00:51:22,893

You?

706

00:
51:28,434 -- 00:51:30,297

I just...

707

00:
51:30,521 -- 00:51:32,019

What?

708

00:
51:35,960 -- 00:51:37,888

Do you know this song?

709

00:
51:39,952 -- 00:51:41,483

Yeah.

710

00:
51:45,760 -- 00:51:48,516

- Do you sing?

- No.

711

00:
51:48,708 -- 00:51:51,651

Nobody wants to hear me sing.

You don't wanna hear me sing.

712

00:
51:51,964 -- 00:51:55,337

I... I didn't mean, you know...

713

00:
51:57,587 -- 00:51:59,419

But, yeah.

714

00:
52:03,238 -- 00:52:05,197

But I can dance.

715

00:
54:14,747 -- 00:54:16,119

Kate.

716

00:
54:17,665 -- 00:54:19,069

Hey.

717

00:
54:19,509 -- 00:54:23,407

Alex was... Alex was just telling me

about the... The lake house.

718

00:
54:24,917 -- 00:54:28,445

- Yeah, it sounds... Sounds really great.

- Great.

719

00:
54:29,400 -- 00:54:31,213

Alex, it's late.

720

00:
54:32,780 -- 00:54:34,404

Yeah.

721

00:
54:34,593 -- 00:54:36,119

Yeah.

722

00:
54:36,741 -- 00:54:39,068

- Good night.

- Good night.

723

00:
54:51,882 -- 00:54:52,794

It was you.

724

00:
54:52,988 -- 00:54:55,167

- You working tomorrow night?

- Yeah.

725

00:
54:55,354 -- 00:54:57,132

Why didn't you say anything?

726

00:
54:57,318 -- 00:55:00,911

You would've thought

I was crazy or drunk. Or both.

727

00:
55:01,129 -- 00:55:02,720

Yeah, but...

728

00:
55:03,433 -- 00:55:05,642

...I liked you.

You should have said something.

729

00:
55:05,830 -- 00:55:08,467

How? You were with your boyfriend.

730

00:
55:08,654 -- 00:55:11,325

You know what? Excuses, excuses.

You are a coward.

731

00:
55:11,512 -- 00:55:13,261

I'm not a coward.

732

00:
55:13,448 -- 00:55:17,038

Oh, really?

Well, what about your girlfriend?

733

00:
55:17,500 -- 00:55:19,187

What? I told you already...

734

00:
55:19,405 -- 00:55:22,286

...she's not my girlfriend.

- He's not my boyfriend either.

735

00:
55:22,509 -- 00:55:25,883

Oh, really? Well, what is he, then?

Your brother?

736

00:
55:26,688 -- 00:55:31,232

We have a comedian. What'd you have,

a clown for breakfast this morning?

737

00:
55:32,770 -- 00:55:34,666

Wonderful. Our first fight.

738

00:
55:34,858 -- 00:55:38,501

You could write a song about it

and go sing it in San Francisco.

739

00:
55:42,445 -- 00:55:44,069

What?

740

00:
55:44,443 -- 00:55:45,794

Hello.

741

00:
55:45,979 -- 00:55:47,760

Hey, Henry.

742

00:
55:49,080 -- 00:55:50,305

What?

743

00:
55:50,463 -- 00:55:52,180

You'll let me know if you need anything?

744

00:
55:52,367 -- 00:55:54,022

Yes, I will.

745

00:
55:55,256 -- 00:55:56,167

- Hi.

- Good afternoon.

746

00:
55:56,394 -- 00:55:59,826

I'm looking for my father. I don't know

which room he's in. Simon Wyler?

747

00:
56:00,016 -- 00:56:02,593

- Mr. Wyler, the architect?

- Yes.

748

00:
56:02,782 -- 00:56:05,663

I'm Anna Klyczynski.

I'm the Attending for your father.

749

00:
56:05,854 -- 00:56:07,844

Hey. What happened? How is he?

750

00:
56:08,036 -- 00:56:12,171

He's okay. He's had a heart attack.

Fortunately, relatively minor.

751

00:
56:12,397 -- 00:56:15,309

His vitals are fine and he's stable...

752

00:
56:15,469 -- 00:56:17,397

...but it will require an intervention.

753

00:
56:17,621 -- 00:56:20,405

He's agreed to schedule it

for tomorrow.

754

00:
56:34,238 -- 00:56:36,721

Good to see you're taking it easy.

755

00:
56:37,465 -- 00:56:41,201

Well, you... You didn't need to come.

I'm perfectly well.

756

00:
56:41,549 -- 00:56:43,445

Perfectly all right.

757

00:
56:43,638 -- 00:56:45,879

Well, you had a heart attack, Dad.

758

00:
56:46,065 -- 00:56:49,134

I had an episode, for chrissake.

759

00:
56:49,322 -- 00:56:51,100

Nothing more.

760

00:
56:51,747 -- 00:56:54,816

Appreciate it if you kept everything

in its perspective.

761

00:
56:56,848 -- 00:56:59,980

Well then, I just wanna let you know

I'm here if you need anything.

762

00:
57:01,946 -- 00:57:03,601

Coffee.

763

00:
57:04,005 -- 00:57:05,566

What?

764

00:
57:05,971 -- 00:57:07,627

You heard me.

765

00:
57:09,842 -- 00:57:11,526

Coffee.

766

00:
57:13,220 -- 00:57:15,274

iI never told you, Kate./i

767
