Not good.

This guy...

This guy should not

be walking around

like nothing happened.

He should not just

be walking around

like nothing happened.

Lock him up and

throw away the key.

Yeah.

- The DA's working

on that, right?

I don't know.

They don't tell us anything.

Nothing.

What if I told you

I wanted to kill him.

Dave.

I'm just kidding.

That would be f***ed up.

Dave?

Dave, did you walk the dog?

What are you working on?

- I'm chatting with

a Dad in Idaho

who's son died of

stomach cancer.

15 years old.

Why?

- Because he needs

someone to talk to.

Your Mom called.

She wants to see you.

Us.

Okay.

When?

Whenever.

Are you ready?

Yeah.

Forgot the keys.

I...

I'm without words.

It's okay.

I'm so sorry. So sorry.

- We've been through

this kind of grief.

It's so different when

it's your children.

Yes.

I'm so sorry.

Congratulations!

Thank you...

- If there's something we

can do, please let us know.

- I know it's hard to ask.

- Anything at all.

I'll cover your classes.

That will make them glad

to see you come back!

Alright. Appreciate that.

- So we want to offer some

kind of condolences,

and... there's just

nothing we can say.

Except that we love you.

Okay?

I'm just gonna go grab some.

I'll be right back, okay?

I'm so glad you came, though.

Oh, thank you.

- It must've been a

hard choice to come.

- I think it's fine to be in

Scotland, to be in Ireland.

It's taking your shoes off

to get on the plane.

It's getting there.

Right, right.

- And travel is not

what it used to be,

as far as I'm concerned.

Oh, yes of course.

- It's just not a

pleasant experience.

Plus, my legs are too

long for those seats.

I'm sure that's not true.

- It's so good to

hear you laugh.

Mmm hmm.

- It's... it's very

nice to see you.

I'm glad to see you again.

Glad to see you... out.

Ohh, thank you.

- I'm sorry to hear about

your children, my dear.

I appreciate that.

- Hope you're doing well.

- I'm doing okay.

- Excuse me. Is

that the family...

Yes, yes that was.

Hi.

Hi.

- I'm sorry about

the other day.

Physically, she looks...

Subdued, I thought.

Surprisingly together,

for what they've experienced.

But they're strong.

Excuse me.

Hello!

How are ya?

How you doing?

I'm good, how are you.

I'm fine.

- Yeah, it's good to see ya.

- Thanks.

- Kelly's here somewhere.

I saw her around.

I thought she was...

I'm surprised she

showed up.

- It would change

a person forever.

I thought they might pass.

It's great to see them

out and about.

Did you see the

mother's hands?

Thank you.

You doing alright?

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

I'm so glad to see you.

Okay. That's enough.

I don't know you that well.

So getting hugged by you

makes me feel really weird.

So... stop hugging people

you don't know that well.

That's just a tip for you, okay?

It's a tip.

And I'd like to actually

make an announcement!

No more hugs!

From people I don't

know that well.

Because I don't need

any more hugs!

And I actually don't

need any of your pity.

Okay?!

I don't need any of your pity,

I don't want any of your hugs!

I am sick and tired!

Of all of this!

Okay.

And I need to go!

I don't know where the

f*** you have been

all f***ing night!

Don't touch me.

Do not touch me!

Woman with dead kids!

Walking out this f***ing door!

How's your family?

They're good.

They're good, yeah.

Billie's third grade,

Sarah's kindergarten.

Thanks, David.

So... look.

I gotta ask you.

Have you been drinking?

Just a couple of beers.

How's he doing?

Not so good.

Why don't you take him home?

I was with Katie that night.

The night of the accident.

I was with Katie.

Wanna get out of here?

The other guy...

and she couldn't get back in.

When was that?

Just on Christmas Eve.

Was that in the paper there?

Yeah.

I must've missed it.

They all got killed?

What about the mother?

Father.

I was told that I should

bring that to you.

I hope that's the right amount.

I'm sure it's fine, Dave.

Umm... Is there anything

I can do for you?

What do you mean?

I don't know.

We could talk... I could...

I could lend you an ear.

You're gonna lend me an ear?

Sometimes it helps to talk.

Okay.

Thanks.

Dave. Please.

Do I look sane to you?

I... I don't know.

I don't know what sanity

looks like, I guess.

Exactly.

- Dave, I know this

gonna be hard...

I know this is hard

for you to hear, but...

Sometimes, things happen.

Horrible, horrible

things happen.

But maybe... just maybe...

there's a reason.

- I should punch you right

in the f***ing face right now.

Get 'em out.

Get 'em out of here!

Get 'em out of here.

Who is it?

F***! Who is it?!

What do you want?!

Go sit down.

Go sit down!

Sit down!

Sit the f*** down!

I'm sitting.

Shut that blind.

Shut. That. F***ing blind.

I know who you are.

you know why I'm here, right?

Yeah.

- Put your head right on

that f***ing table right there.

Put your goddamned

head right on that

f***ing table right there.

Just lay it down.

- This isn't gonna

solve anything.

Just shut up.

- What are you

gonna f***ing do, huh?

Hey?

Shut!

The f***!

Up!

It was an accident.

Shut up!

Shut up! I don't...

Shut up!

Yeah...

Shut up!

You...

F***ing...

F***.

Hey.

Hey, you want a drink?

You want a drink?

Do you want a drink?

Are you f***ing kidding me?

Are you f***ing kidding

me right now?!

Can I have a drink?

Huh?

You want a drink?

Yeah.

Yeah!

Yeah!

Go ahead.

Go get a f***ing drink.

Go get a drink.

There you go.

Go ahead.

Real slow. Real slow.

Slow.

Sit down. Pour your drink.

Sit down and pour

your f***ing drink man!

I only got one hand.

- Am I supposed

feel sorry for you?

Am I... Am I supposed to

f***ing feel sorry for you?

You only have one f***ing hand?

Pour your drink.

Pour your f***ing drink.

Go ahead.

I am not waiting

all f***ing night.

Alright, that's it.

Put it down.

Put it down.

Now put your head

between your legs.

Go ahead, swing around

here and put your head

between your legs.

Right there.

I'm sorry.

You don't get...

to be sorry!

Do it.

Shut up!

Do it.

Shut up!

Shoot.

Pull the f***ing trigger!

Pull it, goddamn it!

Shut up!

Shut up!

- Do it!

Shut up!

Shut up!

Look at all this stuff.

I forget.

I forget not to buy so much,

and then, you know, you're

not eating here anymore,

so, um... I don't know

what I am thinking.

I'll eat at home more often.

Sure you will.

Hello?

Yes.

Hey!

What's wrong?

What?

Oh my God.

No, no. That's okay.

Dave's here. We'll be okay.

I don't know. We will.

He died.

Wow.

- Is... is that all

you have to say?

What do you want me to say?

Umm...

Well, I'm glad.

Or f*** that motherf***er.

Or... I don't know, that sucks.

That makes me really sad.

Just anything.

F*** that motherf***er.

- Someone saw a car drive

away from that house

the other night.

They got a partial plate.

I don't know if you knew this...

But, umm...

I was one of the first
