a-a few questions?

Please, yes, do.

Did you know what was going on...

between Madison and her mother

when Madison was young?

Well, now...

I don't know what you, uh...

I don't know what you mean...

what you mean.

Did you travel a lot

when she was young?

Yeah, I did, I did.

Quite a bit.

And you weren't curious...

about all the trips to the hospital...

while you were gone?

Um...

Hospital... hospital trips.

That's, um...

Well, if you're gonna pretend

that you don't know what happened,

then it's not gonna help her.

And I think that you should... tell her.

What should I say?

That you're sorry.

Can we read that part again?

Which part?

The part about being real.

"What is real?", asked the rabbit.

"Real isn't how you're made,"

said the skin horse.

"It's a thing that happens to you. "

- My turn?

- Go ahead.

"Does it hurt?"

"Sometimes.

When you are real,

you don't mind being hurt. "

I love my daughter.

I love her very much.

I know.

It's not worth playing

into her games like that.

What about it?

I have enabled her.

We know better.

We know better, Steven.

I just... it's just...

it's so hard for me, okay?

This is a dangerous situation, Steven.

I can't talk about it

anymore, darling.

I just can't talk about it anymore.

L-I know how difficult

this has been for all of us.

And your daughter is... is...

is, uh...

is...

Sweetheart, sweetheart...

You...

are...

our daughter.

I'm...

You understand?

- No.

- You understand?

You are.

You are.

Oh.

It's a little hard

for us to understand...

but...

Maddie, we'd like to help you

if we can.

Madison?

Yeah?

Hey. Hey.

Hey.

You should have told me.

I should have told you what?

That you weren't real.

I'm as real as you are.

And the others?

They real?

I don't care about the others.

I've only cared about you.

So, what happens now?

We say good-bye.

No. No good-byes, no good-byes.

Yeah.

It's time.

You're gonna be okay on your own.

You will.

You will.
