00:00:00Little circles. Feel those arms. Those are muscles. You're gonna need them to swim laps.
00:00:15Pretend like you're polishing chrome. Harvey?
00:00:18My arms don't want to go that way.
00:00:23Aren't we done yet, you guys?
00:00:28Do one of those Esther Williams moves.
00:00:33You got 15 more minutes.
00:00:38All right, Harvey. Just one.
00:00:58Sorry, you guys. That's it.
00:01:25I know you have an exciting life with Johnny.
00:01:28Boy, if I was ten years younger, I'd give that husband of yours a run for his money.
00:01:33You haven't run since 1950?
00:01:36Was that Ed Lee Stevenson?
00:01:38Oh, no, honey. We're talking about something else.
00:01:42Okay, you guys. No Esther Williams tomorrow. We gotta get ready for senior day.
00:01:46I've seen the other team, and not a one of them wears water wings.
00:01:52Oh, you can swim the relay race for us. Show us how it's done, and we'll sit on the sidelines and cheer.
00:01:57Is she going to Wilshire? Is that where Johnny's taking her?
00:02:02What makes you think Johnny's taking me anywhere?
00:02:04If I was married to you, you'd be non-stop.
00:02:07Yeah, just you, Susan, and the pacemaker.
00:02:11Uh-oh. Where's my inhaler? Thank you.
00:02:17Oh, come on. Tell us. He's gonna take you out tonight, right? Some big cocktail party?
00:02:22A movie. I bet it's dinner.
00:02:26Yeah. Harvey, yeah, you're right. It's a cocktail party.
00:02:29I knew it. Five bucks.
00:02:36So DPD, Dependent Personality Disorder, has two key elements.
00:02:41People see the world as a hostile place.
00:02:44And themselves as powerless and desperate.
00:02:46In a world freezing them out, forcing them to spend an eternity alone.
00:02:50They hold on tight to anyone they feel can save them.
00:02:53Yes.
00:02:55What is the underlying dynamic?
00:02:57Fear of abandonment.
00:02:59They're so needy that they usually send their loved ones screaming in the other direction.
00:03:03Getting them to believe in their own power, that's a challenge.
00:03:07Any more questions before our seminar ends?
00:03:11Any more questions before our seminar ends?
00:03:15Alright, thank you very much.
00:03:21Good job, Laurel. Thanks.
00:03:24Great presentation, Laurel. Very clear. Thank you.
00:03:27I have a question. Yes?
00:03:30Will you have dinner with me?
00:03:34Jake, what are you doing here? Is that a yes?
00:03:38I thought you were going to be in Atlanta this week. That's what your email said.
00:03:41I rearranged my schedule so I could come through San Jose a little sooner and give you some support.
00:03:48So, can we have dinner?
00:03:52You can walk me to my car.
00:03:54Okay.
00:03:57How long are you in town?
00:03:59Just until tomorrow. Just to see you triumph with your colleagues.
00:04:03Feels odd seeing you again.
00:04:05Odd, Brad, or just odd?
00:04:08Three months of emailing, all very charming, I have to admit.
00:04:12But this is only the second time we've seen each other.
00:04:15And calls. We've talked on the phone.
00:04:18Hit or miss. You never left a number where I could call you back.
00:04:22Only because I was on the road.
00:04:25I tell you what, if you say yes to dinner, I promise I will not spill coffee on you like I did the first time that I saw you at Starbucks.
00:04:34I still can't believe I did that.
00:04:36My dry cleaner loves you.
00:04:38I think you helped finance his oldest child's trumpet lessons for a year.
00:04:42That's the least I can do.
00:04:44So what do you say?
00:04:47Okay. Dinner.
00:04:50Seven?
00:04:52Excuse me.
00:04:54Oh, before I forget.
00:04:56Dr. Laura MacArthur.
00:04:58Address?
00:04:59Tess, hang on one second.
00:05:05Okay.
00:05:06What about your number?
00:05:08Tonight.
00:05:10Okay.
00:05:12What's up, Tess?
00:05:27Hello?
00:05:31Roxy?
00:05:33Who is it?
00:05:35It's me, Susan.
00:05:39I thought we had plans.
00:05:41Well, we did, Susan.
00:05:44But things changed suddenly.
00:05:46Now I have company.
00:05:49I brought pie.
00:05:51Please don't make this awkward for me.
00:05:53Who is it, honey?
00:05:56Uh, it's Susan, Al.
00:06:00Um, Susan, this is my new friend, Al.
00:06:04You two old friends?
00:06:06Not exactly.
00:06:08Um, I know you're going to find this hard to believe,
00:06:10and I don't want you to fall over backwards or anything,
00:06:13but she's my daughter.
00:06:30So.
00:06:33Toyota wagon, right?
00:06:35Excuse me?
00:06:37No frills, low maintenance.
00:06:39Oh, it's the kind of car game.
00:06:41Al is so good at that.
00:06:43I can spot a low-end station wagon a mile away.
00:06:47I drive a Ford Taurus.
00:06:49Oh, well, Al will get it on the next guess, won't you, honey?
00:06:53He guessed a low sporty model for me, something pink,
00:06:56with real leather buckets,
00:06:58and if I wasn't driving that, I should be.
00:07:00If life was fair, which, of course, we all know it isn't.
00:07:04I'll check the stuffing.
00:07:08Susan is very good in the kitchen.
00:07:11I had her when I was 16,
00:07:13and believe me, it cut my childhood too quick.
00:07:16But I never once thought of giving her up.
00:07:19It was my duty, and I was going to have her,
00:07:21even if it killed me.
00:07:23It's done.
00:07:25Oh, Susan, why don't you fry the pork chops?
00:07:28They're in the fridge, and the frying pan's on the counter.
00:07:31I mean, since you're already in there.
00:07:33Hmm.
00:07:35What are you doing? What are you doing?
00:07:37I'm having fun.
00:07:49I haven't told you,
00:07:51I haven't told you
00:07:53how impressed I was with your lecture.
00:07:56I haven't told you how impressed I was that you showed up.
00:07:59Oh, are you kidding?
00:08:01That was my family you were describing.
00:08:03Now, who told you that stuff, was it Mom?
00:08:05That's what everybody thinks.
00:08:07Actually, my family is stupefyingly normal.
00:08:10Well, that's what you think.
00:08:12Their last therapy session,
00:08:14you should have heard what they said about you.
00:08:16Oh.
00:08:18Now, I didn't think psychologists were allowed to be funny.
00:08:21As long as we do it on our own time.
00:08:24And don't reach.
00:08:26Yeah, overreaching can be a problem.
00:08:28Has been for me.
00:08:30I can see that.
00:08:33How about you?
00:08:35Oh, I overreach all the time.
00:08:49It's funny
00:08:51how water looks in different parts of the world.
00:08:55Three weeks ago, I was working for the Indian government,
00:08:58reprogramming 4 million lines of computer code.
00:09:01It's late at night, I'm exhausted,
00:09:03and I walk outside,
00:09:05and the Arabians here are just stretched out.
00:09:08It's all silver, purple, glistening.
00:09:14And I don't usually talk this way out here.
00:09:22I like it.
00:09:26When I was a kid, I just wanted a job
00:09:29that would make a difference, you know?
00:09:31I do know.
00:09:33That's exactly how I feel about being a psychologist.
00:09:36It's absorbing and frustrating.
00:09:40And every once in a while,
00:09:42someone will do something so remarkable
00:09:45that takes such courage.
00:09:47Who do you talk to?
00:09:50Well, that's a good question.
00:09:52I spend all day trying to get people to open up.
00:09:56But I can't talk about what they say or how they feel.
00:10:01So the work part, the part that most people share,
00:10:05I have to just close off.
00:10:07So that must be tough on relationships.
00:10:10I wouldn't know. I haven't had one in three years.
00:10:15How about you?
00:10:19I've always been married.
00:10:22It ended. I mean, it's been over a year.
00:10:27I'm sorry.
00:10:29I must.
00:10:38Look...
00:10:40I'm not very good at this,
00:10:42and I'm probably not going to get it right,
00:10:45but I was wondering.
00:10:47I have this trip.
00:10:49I have to take some time in the next month.
00:10:52I want it through a company I contract with.
00:10:55Anyway, it's to the Bahamas.
00:10:58The water's amazing.
00:11:00It's clear blue, 200 feet down.
00:11:03Do you like to swim?
00:11:06You could relax or go snorkeling.
00:11:13I mean, you'd have your own room, of course.
00:11:16I'm not...
00:11:18I'm sorry.
00:11:22I'm suddenly not feeling very well.
00:11:37I just want you to know...
00:11:39You first.
00:11:41Okay.
00:11:42Jake, I had a wonderful time.
00:11:44Me too.
00:11:45Laura, I want you to know I don't usually make a habit
00:11:48of asking women I barely know to the Bahamas.
00:11:51I want to do this right.
00:11:53However long it takes.
00:11:55I'll call you, and I will e-mail you,
00:11:58and here is my number in Atlanta.
00:12:02Okay?
00:12:03Okay.
00:12:06Jake, I'll think about what you said about the trip.
00:12:10Great.
00:12:12Good night.
00:12:13Good night.
00:12:36Good night.
00:12:56I'd like the number of the community center, please.
00:13:01You've reached the San Jose Community Center.
00:13:03We'll open daily from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m.
00:13:06Please leave us a message.
00:13:08Hi, this is Laura MacArthur.
00:13:10555-6720.
00:13:14If somebody could please call me back.
00:13:17I'd like to inquire about swimming lessons.
00:13:25I think so.
00:13:27So I tell the cop, this thing won't even go 65,
00:13:31and he lets me go!
00:13:33So I stomp on it, get it up to 65,
00:13:35and keep it there, clear in the Kingman.
00:13:38Not bad.
00:13:40You know, we got an extra bed in the RV.
00:13:42It's kind of small, but maybe you and Al
00:13:44could squeeze in with it.
00:13:46Come on, see how long you can stand.
00:13:48Tony, stop!
00:13:50Four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten.
00:13:57Six, seven, eight, nine, eleven.
00:14:06You okay?
00:14:08What's going on?
00:14:12Somebody hurt? Anybody hurt?
00:14:23Susan, for Pete's sake,
00:14:25I didn't assume you were looking out for our own grandkids.
00:14:28We was playing, that's all.
00:14:30You certainly know how to cast a paw, I'll give you that.
00:14:33She surely didn't learn this from me.
00:14:36If you'll excuse me, I'm going to walk her to the gate.
00:14:41You didn't say more than two words to my friends tonight.
00:14:44The least you can do is make decent conversation.
00:14:47Where's the movie?
00:14:49What?
00:14:50The movie I rented.
00:14:52Well, I haven't watched it yet.
00:14:55You know, you're going to need to get out and make your own friends.
00:14:58You can't rely on me for your entire social life.
00:15:00I thought it would be fun. My mistake.
00:15:02But we have different ideas about what's fun.
00:15:05That's all, Susan.
00:15:08Hey, we're not done with that yet.
00:15:22I love you.
00:15:49Johnny.
00:15:51So good to have you home.
00:15:53Hey, Susan.
00:15:54Oh, you're home early.
00:15:56I didn't expect you till after Chicago.
00:15:58I know.
00:16:07Are you okay?
00:16:09Susan, I...
00:16:10Where...
00:16:11Where's your wedding ring?
00:16:14Somebody stole it.
00:16:15Stole it?
00:16:16Yeah.
00:16:17Who would do something like that?
00:16:19I was in the hotel room, and I was washing up,
00:16:21and I took it off, and I put it on the sink,
00:16:23and when I came back, it was gone.
00:16:27And I didn't want to tell you over the phone.
00:16:32There's pie in the fridge.
00:16:34I took it to Roxy's.
00:16:36She's got this new guy.
00:16:38I think we should separate.
00:16:40Oh, clumsy of me.
00:16:42Did you hear what I said?
00:16:43What could I have done?
00:16:45Honey, honey, things haven't been so good.
00:16:47Why are you saying that?
00:16:49Stop saying that.
00:16:50Just stop it!
00:16:51Stop it.
00:16:52Stop it and just listen to me.
00:16:54No.
00:16:55You listen to me.
00:16:57We've been married for ten years, Johnny.
00:17:00We've known each other since we were kids.
00:17:02You can't just come waltzing in here and tell me you're out of here.
00:17:05It's over.
00:17:06I am not the same man that I was ten years ago.
00:17:10How would I know that?
00:17:12You're hardly ever here.
00:17:15Maybe I should get my own place.
00:17:17It might help.
00:17:19Our marriage doesn't need help.
00:17:21It needs you.
00:17:23Not off on longer business trips or closed up in your office when you are home.
00:17:27When I am home, all we do is fight.
00:17:29And whose fault is that?
00:17:39Susan.
00:17:40Susan!
00:17:42You can't be any happier than I am.
00:17:45We both want very different things.
00:17:49You like to stay at home.
00:17:50I like taking care of you, Johnny.
00:17:52Is there something wrong with that?
00:17:54That's not what I meant.
00:17:55I'm just saying that our lives...
00:17:56Stop it!
00:17:57Stop!
00:17:58Stop sorting my stuff!
00:18:01It's my job, Johnny.
00:18:02You want my job?
00:18:04Fine.
00:18:05Take it.
00:18:06You can have it.
00:18:07Look, all I'm saying is that maybe
00:18:11if you stop focusing on me for just a minute,
00:18:14you might have a little more time for yourself.
00:18:17That's all.
00:18:18Oh.
00:18:20You're trying to help me.
00:18:23You are something.
00:18:26Don't put that away.
00:18:28It's got gravy on it.
00:18:30Oh.
00:18:31Yeah.
00:18:32So tell me something.
00:18:34What do you have?
00:18:36Besides swimming and teaching that little class.
00:18:39Little class?
00:18:40It's important.
00:18:42And not just to me.
00:18:44And you'd see that if you ever came down and watched,
00:18:47like you promised.
00:18:49And as far as the swimming...
00:18:50It's not all you are!
00:18:52It's the best part of me, Johnny.
00:18:54The swimming.
00:18:56You knew that when you married me.
00:18:58You used to love it.
00:19:01Maybe it's the swimming.
00:19:03It's messed up your cycles.
00:19:07That's what this is.
00:19:10I went for testing, Susan.
00:19:16You're trying to force me to get tested?
00:19:19Is that it?
00:19:20I won't do it.
00:19:22I'm not gonna put our sex life on some chart.
00:19:26Not that we have one.
00:19:28You know, I don't think I even want a baby anymore.
00:19:31What are you saying?
00:19:35You always wanted a baby.
00:19:37The first thing you did when we got married was build a cradle.
00:19:40Johnny.
00:19:42You're upset.
00:19:44It's okay.
00:19:45It's fine.
00:19:47You want a baby?
00:19:49Great.
00:19:50That's great.
00:19:52We can work on it.
00:19:53We can make that happen.
00:19:55You're only saying that now because I just told you I want to separate.
00:19:59No, no.
00:20:00I am saying that because it's the truth.
00:20:03Susan.
00:20:04Some people aren't meant to be together forever.
00:20:08I don't think we are.
00:20:11You made a promise when we got married, Johnny.
00:20:14That we would be.
00:20:17All I'm asking for is a little fairness.
00:20:21A chance to work it out.
00:20:30I still have Chicago tomorrow.
00:20:32And then you'll be back.
00:20:34I can't leave this way.
00:20:37This way.
00:20:39Susan.
00:20:41No, you said this way.
00:20:43It's late.
00:20:47Can we just go to sleep?
00:20:57I can drive you to the airport.
00:20:59No.
00:21:01You'll be late for class.
00:21:03Is it the 715 tomorrow?
00:21:05It's open ended.
00:21:06I don't know how long it could be.
00:21:08Johnny.
00:21:09Things can change.
00:21:11People can change.
00:21:14I'll try if you will.
00:21:17Susan, you know I love you.
00:21:24You're just not in love with me.
00:21:26Is that it?
00:21:27You are stronger than you think.
00:21:30Not about you, Johnny.
00:21:32I'll call you from Chicago.
00:21:35Okay, Susan?
00:22:01Yes, I'd like the number of the Sheridan.
00:22:04Downtown San Jose.
00:22:07Can you connect me, please?
00:22:11Yes.
00:22:13I'd like to make a reservation.
00:22:16Jake Miller.
00:22:18No, a single.
00:22:22I'll be checking in in about ten minutes.
00:22:31Oh, he's doing it again.
00:22:34Harvey!
00:22:42Harvey!
00:22:44Gotcha!
00:22:46You need to grow up or come back during family swim.
00:22:50Honey.
00:22:52What's wrong?
00:22:53Nothing.
00:22:55I'm fine.
00:22:58I see chlorine in my eye.
00:23:01If it's something about Johnny, then he's a fool.
00:23:08Okay, beginners.
00:23:10Everybody in.
00:23:23Spread out, spread out.
00:23:26Good, good.
00:23:27Come on, move out a little bit.
00:23:29Move out.
00:23:30Okay, Laurel, come on in.
00:23:35A little further, please.
00:23:42Come on, you can do it.
00:23:44One more step.
00:23:49That's it, Laurel.
00:23:51Okay, good.
00:23:52Class, we're going to start with breathing first.
00:23:55Get some bubbles underwater.
00:23:59Easy, right?
00:24:01Now, everybody do it together.
00:24:03One, two, three.
00:24:04Here we go.
00:24:09Come on, Laurel.
00:24:15Head under.
00:24:16There you go.
00:24:21It's okay.
00:24:24You all right?
00:24:27Hey, Laurel, come back.
00:24:29Come back.
00:24:43I saw what happened.
00:24:45You okay?
00:24:47No, I'm not.
00:24:51Can I get you some water?
00:24:54Okay.
00:25:04Here you go.
00:25:05Thanks.
00:25:08It was a stupid idea, my coming here.
00:25:11I never thought I could learn to swim in a couple of weeks so I could go in the ocean.
00:25:18It was a guy, okay?
00:25:20Stupid reason, huh?
00:25:22I've heard worse.
00:25:26I could teach you.
00:25:28I don't think so.
00:25:29No, really, it's what I do.
00:25:32Well, the teacher's not the problem.
00:25:35Look, you're afraid.
00:25:39I know what that feels like.
00:25:44You really think you could?
00:25:46No, I could.
00:25:48Susan Miller.
00:25:51Lauren McArthur.
00:26:06Jake.
00:26:12Hi.
00:26:13Hi.
00:26:14Hey, you all right?
00:26:15I went to your office and your assistant said you were sick.
00:26:17Oh, not really.
00:26:18Something happened today I had some trouble with, that's all.
00:26:21Chicken soup.
00:26:22It solves everything.
00:26:23You relax and I will get you a real bowl.
00:26:26I have a rule of never letting anyone take care of me.
00:26:29Well, then you're overdue.
00:26:30Relax.
00:26:31Go, sit down.
00:26:46Wow.
00:26:49Thank you.
00:26:51Thank you.
00:26:53For what?
00:26:54For making things clear.
00:26:56What was unclear?
00:26:58Something very important, but I don't want to talk about it, I just want to handle it.
00:27:03I have things I'm working on that I don't want to burden you with also.
00:27:07You know, that's funny.
00:27:09I look at you and I think none of it's a burden.
00:27:15I don't have little relationships.
00:27:19Neither do I.
00:27:26I'll call you later.
00:27:45Bye.
00:28:16It's just like riding a horse or a bicycle.
00:28:20And after what happened the other day, we're going to get you right back in the saddle.
00:28:25I don't ride horses and I haven't ridden a bike in years.
00:28:29So what do you do for fun?
00:28:31I don't have fun, I'm a psychologist.
00:28:33A psychologist who's afraid of the water.
00:28:36Very interesting.
00:28:39Can you come a little further?
00:28:42I can't go any farther.
00:28:43You're okay.
00:28:44I'm not going to let anything happen to you.
00:28:46The water's not going to let anything happen to you.
00:28:49The water's going to hold you up.
00:28:53Tell me about this guy.
00:28:56Jake, he lives in Atlanta.
00:29:01That's funny, his last name's Miller.
00:29:03They're everywhere.
00:29:06Okay, now we're going to breathe.
00:29:08We're going to lower our chins to the water.
00:29:10Watch me.
00:29:12I'm going to breathe in.
00:29:18And out.
00:29:20Now you.
00:29:26That's great.
00:29:27Now, this time, I'm going to lower not my face, just my lips.
00:29:34Okay? Just my lips.
00:29:43There you go.
00:29:50Tell me to turn on the pool!
00:29:55Are you okay?
00:29:57I knew someone once drowned.
00:30:01Chlorine stays, doesn't it?
00:30:03Mm-hmm.
00:30:04You're doing great.
00:30:06Put up my hand, Laurel.
00:30:08Just like we were.
00:30:10Chin to the water.
00:30:12Breathe, Laurel.
00:30:14Breathe.
00:30:17My mom loves orchids.
00:30:21Do you like jazz?
00:30:22I love it.
00:30:24There's this group I like playing on Friday night at the Golden Horn.
00:30:28Would you like to go?
00:30:29Sure.
00:30:32Thank you.
00:30:33So what else do you love?
00:30:35Independent films.
00:30:37Reading.
00:30:38Running in the park.
00:30:40Traveling.
00:30:42My mom's mac and cheese.
00:30:44Oh, yeah.
00:30:45Oh, God, I sound like some singles ad.
00:30:47Loves pizza and small children.
00:30:52So do you?
00:30:54Love children?
00:30:56Sure.
00:30:57How about you?
00:30:59I'll have the pizza.
00:31:02Oh, and before I forget, I'm moving here.
00:31:06My condo's up for sale.
00:31:08You can do that? Just move?
00:31:10It's the advantage of being a troubleshooter.
00:31:12I can work from anywhere.
00:31:15Jake, I'll come with you to the Bahamas.
00:31:18Yeah.
00:31:32Take a look behind you.
00:31:34Hello.
00:31:36You do marriage counseling?
00:31:38Yes. Something wrong?
00:31:40No, not me.
00:31:42A friend.
00:31:44My marriage?
00:31:45Great. Johnny's great.
00:31:47I'm glad you're married to somebody nice, Johnny.
00:31:50Yeah, the best.
00:31:53Okay, let's work on our arms.
00:31:55Okay?
00:31:56Circle us like this.
00:31:58So what's great about him?
00:32:00In school, word got out that I didn't have a dad,
00:32:06so I was always getting teased.
00:32:08Johnny was the most popular boy in junior high,
00:32:12and when I was 12,
00:32:15we were in the same gym class.
00:32:18And after he saw me swim,
00:32:20he never let anybody tease me again.
00:32:24He could have had anybody,
00:32:27and he chose me.
00:32:29I'm not surprised.
00:32:31Okay.
00:32:33Let's work on putting our faces in the water, like this.
00:32:44That's it. Relax.
00:32:47Good. Good.
00:32:50Of course, it's not all I want to do, be married,
00:32:54but it's kind of a cornerstone.
00:32:57So what else do you want to do?
00:33:00Truth?
00:33:02I have a year left on my degree.
00:33:05Johnny graduated a year before I did,
00:33:08and the main thing I wanted to do was make a home for us,
00:33:11so I dropped out.
00:33:13Okay, this time, when you put your face in the water,
00:33:17just let your body go.
00:33:19Feel the water hold you up.
00:33:23I'll do it first.
00:33:28Okay.
00:33:38I'm thinking of going back,
00:33:40but I'm going to be 32 on my next birthday, so I don't know.
00:33:44So what? You're going to be 32 anyway.
00:33:47Susan, I might look like I come from a long line of Ph.D.s,
00:33:51but I was the first one on either side of my family to finish college.
00:33:55Every summer I worked in the same factory as my dad
00:33:58just to pay my way through, but you didn't.
00:34:01You got out.
00:34:03Yeah, who would have thought?
00:34:08Someday I want to write a book, a kid's dream book, I think,
00:34:13an adult voice telling them that there's a place for them
00:34:16in this bigger world and that they can do it,
00:34:19that their dreams count.
00:34:26What?
00:34:28What?
00:34:56Johnny!
00:34:58I'm so glad you're home.
00:35:00I have a surprise for you.
00:35:02What kind of surprise?
00:35:04Come on, I'll show you.
00:35:11I want to get tested, Johnny.
00:35:14I want to have a baby with you.
00:35:17Susan, this isn't going to solve it.
00:35:20Susan, this isn't going to solve it.
00:35:25I need to move forward and get my own place.
00:35:28No, you need counseling. Is that it?
00:35:32We could go together. I have a student that does that.
00:35:40I'm going to sleep on the couch tonight.
00:35:50Good night.
00:36:20Good night.
00:36:50Good night.
00:36:52Good night.
00:36:54Good night.
00:37:20Sorry I'm late. A session ran long.
00:37:25Oh, my God.
00:37:27Laurel, you did it! You put your whole head underwater.
00:37:30It's because I'm a trained psychologist.
00:37:33Don't try this at home.
00:37:35Are you okay?
00:37:39Two of you! I'm in heaven!
00:37:42You got to watch out for this one, Harvey.
00:37:45This is my friend Laurel.
00:37:47Harvey, other end of the pool.
00:37:49Bossier and bossier. Have you noticed that or is it just me?
00:37:53Go!
00:37:56Okay, today we're going to work on breathing again.
00:38:00But this time, when we take a breath,
00:38:04we're going to turn our head and blow it into the water.
00:38:08Watch.
00:38:18Have you ever been married?
00:38:20Not yet.
00:38:21What about this guy from Atlanta?
00:38:23I don't know. Anything's possible.
00:38:26Is he nice?
00:38:28Yeah, he's great.
00:38:30How long have you been married?
00:38:32Ten years.
00:38:37Susan, what is it?
00:38:45He wants to separate.
00:38:48I think there's somebody else.
00:38:51Susan, I'm so sorry.
00:38:53He lies.
00:38:55He told me somebody stole his wedding ring.
00:38:58And then I found it.
00:39:00He'd hidden it.
00:39:02Have you told him that you know?
00:39:04I don't know. I don't want to hear the answer.
00:39:07Maybe it has something to do with work.
00:39:09Well, it could be. What does he do?
00:39:11Computers, but I know it's not that.
00:39:14The worst part is...
00:39:18It used to be so easy at home.
00:39:21I never had to think about what I said or did.
00:39:24I just knew he was on my side.
00:39:27No matter what happened out there, at home,
00:39:31it was just us in this little world.
00:39:35And I don't know how to get that back.
00:39:38Johnny doesn't think I have any ambition.
00:39:41I don't want to do anything.
00:39:44But he's wrong.
00:39:47My huge ambition and the big success of my life
00:39:52was always closing off the rest of the world
00:39:55and keeping us inside.
00:40:00And I just thought,
00:40:03if I stayed close to home
00:40:06and I kept it small,
00:40:09that I could get it right.
00:40:13That nothing could hurt me.
00:40:16And now...
00:40:17You know what? I think we need a break.
00:40:20A girl's weekend, maybe.
00:40:22Or, you know what? A spa.
00:40:27Laurel, he's hardly ever home.
00:40:31I'm not just going to leave him when he is.
00:40:34If it is true, if there's somebody else...
00:40:40I'll take care of you, okay?
00:40:47Yeah.
00:41:05Thank you.
00:41:06To you and your move.
00:41:08To us.
00:41:11I'm having dinner at my mom's next Wednesday.
00:41:14Want to come?
00:41:15Wednesday. If it's late.
00:41:18I've got a little something to do, but Wednesday will be just fine.
00:41:21Great. Bring an appetite.
00:41:27Oh, my God. I can't believe it.
00:41:30What is it, Bits?
00:41:32Look at that table to the left of the piano.
00:41:35That is him, isn't it?
00:41:37That's Johnny Miller.
00:41:39That's not Susan with him.
00:41:41Maybe it's just a client.
00:41:44I'll be back.
00:41:52Bits, stay out of it. It's none of your business.
00:41:57If it was me, I'd want to know.
00:42:04See? I told you.
00:42:07Once you bring the bike, it all comes back to you.
00:42:10This is so good for me.
00:42:13Me, too.
00:42:15I never had any real friends when I was a kid, except Johnny.
00:42:20Until just now.
00:42:22I didn't realize how lonely I was.
00:42:25Yeah, I know all about loneliness.
00:42:28You know what a psychologist is?
00:42:30False intimacy.
00:42:32Laura, you help people.
00:42:34You're being too hard on yourself.
00:42:36I don't know, am I?
00:42:38It lets me get close without ever giving anything back.
00:42:41Which is fine for work.
00:42:43I just don't want to do it in my personal life anymore.
00:42:46Things are heating up with you and Jake.
00:42:49There's that.
00:42:51He sounds like how Johnny used to be with me.
00:42:54Concerned, paying attention.
00:42:57Yeah, there's Jake.
00:42:59But there's also you.
00:43:01Our friendship, our talks.
00:43:03He can talk to you about anything.
00:43:05I'm the one who should be saying that.
00:43:07I was never comfortable around women like you.
00:43:10They always seem to have this gift that they knew everything.
00:43:15You're the one with the gift.
00:43:17Haven't you seen the way Harvey and the others just light up when you're around?
00:43:21You make people feel safe.
00:43:24You make me feel safe.
00:43:30Johnny's coming home tonight.
00:43:32I'm meeting him at his folks' house.
00:43:36We have dinner every Wednesday when he's here.
00:43:38Are you close with him?
00:43:40I only see him when he's here.
00:43:43Jake's meeting my mom tonight.
00:43:45You scared?
00:43:46No.
00:43:48Some.
00:43:51Okay, a lot.
00:43:53Could be worse.
00:43:54You could be meeting his parents.
00:43:57Susan.
00:44:07I was hoping I'd run into you.
00:44:09I mean, here we live, what, two blocks apart and we don't even see each other?
00:44:12Well, here he is.
00:44:15Hi, Betts.
00:44:17Hi, little guy.
00:44:18I've been meaning to stop by.
00:44:20Oh, no, no, it's fine.
00:44:21I know you had a lot on your mind.
00:44:23How are you?
00:44:24Fine.
00:44:25Really?
00:44:26Really.
00:44:27You okay?
00:44:29Yeah.
00:44:30Any reason I shouldn't be?
00:44:32No, no, I just didn't know if you and Johnny...
00:44:34Me and Johnny what?
00:44:37Oh, he wants out.
00:44:42Hey, little pumpkin.
00:44:46You want to hold him?
00:44:47No, I've got to go change.
00:44:51Betts, just say it, okay?
00:44:54We saw Johnny at this club over on Fifth.
00:44:57The Golden Horn.
00:44:59There's this group we love, Andrew's Jazz Ensemble.
00:45:03He was with somebody.
00:45:05A woman.
00:45:09It was just a client, probably.
00:45:12Yeah.
00:45:13Yeah, it was a client.
00:45:15Yeah.
00:45:16Your baby's cute, Betts.
00:45:18Oh, thanks.
00:45:19Great seeing you.
00:45:20Yeah.
00:45:25Ooh, there is such a chill tonight.
00:45:27This is probably going to be the last night we eat out this year.
00:45:30Thank you, dear.
00:45:32You look a little pale.
00:45:34Are you pushing too hard with your swimming?
00:45:36I'm fine.
00:45:37Johnny's the one who's been busy.
00:45:40It's true.
00:45:42And I'm going to have to go out again tonight, too.
00:45:44Got a call from Richards at Unitech.
00:45:46A virus in their patient's file.
00:45:49Could be a long one.
00:45:50Well, they have to let you eat.
00:45:52I mean, especially after being cooped up on that airplane all day.
00:45:56Long flight?
00:45:58Long dinner, Boston.
00:45:59You want to pass that coleslaw, Mom?
00:46:01I heard the weather was clear.
00:46:04Well, I was there, Susan, and we were on the ground for two hours.
00:46:08Johnny, you want another hamburger or hot dog?
00:46:10Hamburger.
00:46:12Dad, it's nice to have a home-cooked meal.
00:46:14Maybe if you were home.
00:46:17I'm just trying to make a living, Susan.
00:46:20Johnny, I ran into your old high school quarterback the other day.
00:46:24Bill Jeffers?
00:46:26I haven't seen him since graduation.
00:46:28How's he doing?
00:46:29Oh, fine.
00:46:30Bald.
00:46:34It's amazing who you can run into when you least expect it.
00:46:38You know Betz?
00:46:39The woman down the street with the baby?
00:46:41Yeah.
00:46:43She and her husband went to this new club the other night.
00:46:46The Golden Horn.
00:46:48This is great, Dad.
00:46:53Andrews Jazz Ensemble.
00:46:55Isn't that one of your favorite groups, Johnny?
00:47:00You know, speaking of Andrews,
00:47:02guess who just got awarded the contract for reconfiguring the computers at Andrews Air Force Base?
00:47:08Oh, that's wonderful!
00:47:09Terrific! Great!
00:47:11I guess I will have to be gone a little bit more.
00:47:16Excuse me.
00:47:19It's all right.
00:47:27What do you think you're doing?
00:47:28Me? You were at that club, Johnny!
00:47:31What are you talking about?
00:47:32You know damn well what I'm talking about.
00:47:34Who is she? What is her name?
00:47:36I don't want to hurt you.
00:47:37Oh!
00:47:41Oh God, it's true.
00:47:44You're not going to believe it when I found this in the garage.
00:47:48Nobody stole it.
00:47:49You took it off and you hid it.
00:47:51I have been trying to tell you.
00:47:52This is not happening!
00:47:56Susan, we have to talk.
00:47:59I am not ready for this to be over.
00:48:03This is not the time, okay?
00:48:05We'll talk later.
00:48:09I'm going to be late.
00:48:17Hi Mom!
00:48:18Hi!
00:48:21Oh, you must be Jake.
00:48:22Hi!
00:48:23Hi!
00:48:24Oh my, that's a rare Brazilian orchid.
00:48:29Thank you.
00:48:30Come in.
00:48:37So Laurel tells me she was born in Michigan.
00:48:39Were you too?
00:48:41Third generation.
00:48:43We decided to leave after...
00:48:45Well, we moved to Chicago when Laurel was eight.
00:48:49More potatoes.
00:48:50Oh, thank you.
00:48:51It was delicious, but I could need another bite of them.
00:48:54Oh, you have to save room for dessert.
00:48:57I made peach cobbler from scratch.
00:49:03What do you think?
00:49:04I like him.
00:49:05Me too.
00:49:06All right.
00:49:07That is all of them.
00:49:08Oh, thanks.
00:49:09Just put them over there.
00:49:10Want me to start loading?
00:49:11No, it's broken, I'm afraid.
00:49:12Why didn't you tell me it was broken?
00:49:14Let me take a look at this.
00:49:16Could be a piece missing or something.
00:49:18You know, this just needs to be tightened up.
00:49:20Do you have a toolbox?
00:49:21Yeah.
00:49:22Dad's old toolbox is in the hall closet.
00:49:23Do you want to get it, honey?
00:49:26I miss so much of Laurel's dad.
00:49:28He used to be able to fix anything.
00:49:30He was so good with his hands.
00:49:32You must miss him.
00:49:34Every day for the past 12 years.
00:49:37Here we go.
00:49:39Thanks for doing this.
00:49:48You look comfortable.
00:49:49I am.
00:49:51Thank you.
00:49:57So my Atlanta realtor found a buyer.
00:50:00Now all I need is a place here.
00:50:02Want to help me look?
00:50:04Sure, if you want me to.
00:50:07Laurel, I can't get you off my mind.
00:50:10I can't stop thinking about you.
00:50:13I wonder what you're doing when you're not with me.
00:50:19I want to spend every minute with you.
00:50:21I hope that doesn't frighten you, and I hope it's not too fast.
00:50:27I just have these feelings.
00:50:51Good morning.
00:51:11I made some coffee.
00:51:13I can't believe I slept so late.
00:51:19Smells good.
00:51:22I told you I wanted to do this right, and I do.
00:51:26Oh, Jake.
00:51:29There's something that I need to tell you.
00:51:34What is it?
00:51:36And, uh...
00:51:41I'm still married.
00:51:47How dare you come in here with your words and your orchids and your soup when I'm sick?
00:51:52How dare you manipulate me?
00:51:54Is that what you think?
00:51:56Look what it'd help if I talked about her, if I told you why I couldn't just leave?
00:52:01Well, you think by sharing intimate details about her feelings and her weaknesses
00:52:05and what she looks like in the morning and what she's afraid of,
00:52:09that that will somehow make what you did okay?
00:52:13Well, suddenly go, oh, yeah, now I get it.
00:52:18We're getting divorced.
00:52:20Does your wife know?
00:52:23She doesn't want to believe it, but she knows there's someone else, and it's over with her.
00:52:27Jake, the truth is it's not.
00:52:29If it were, you'd be divorced legally,
00:52:32not just in your mind for a couple of hours while we're together.
00:52:35Laura, I've done a terrible thing, not only to you but to her,
00:52:38and I am just trying to make it right.
00:52:40The only way to make it right is to go back in there and figure out the ending on your marriage.
00:52:45You have to settle it, Jake, one way or the other.
00:52:48I meant everything I said to you.
00:52:51Did you mean it to her once too?
00:52:56He's married.
00:52:59Oh, Laura, in therapy I hear the same kind of stories all the time.
00:53:03I should have known.
00:53:04Have you ever tried calling him in Atlanta?
00:53:06Yeah, he had a voicemail in his condo.
00:53:09We mostly emailed.
00:53:13Of course I still love Johnny,
00:53:17even though he just told me he really does have somebody else.
00:53:21Do you really want a guy who would treat you like that?
00:53:25Okay, don't answer that.
00:53:28God.
00:53:31Men.
00:53:33We need a vacation.
00:53:34I'll tell you what.
00:53:36If you let me continue teaching you swimming, the only reason I was taking swimming lessons was because of Jake.
00:53:41But you can't just stop now.
00:53:43I mean, you've come this far.
00:53:45I'll make you a deal.
00:53:47If you stick with your swimming lessons,
00:53:50I'll take you up on that girl's vacation.
00:53:52Okay?
00:53:53Deal.
00:53:55But I don't want us wasting a minute talking about these guys.
00:53:58Us?
00:54:00I know.
00:54:02Five bucks every time one of us brings him up.
00:54:06So I've thought about this,
00:54:09and I do want to try.
00:54:13Being here.
00:54:15Us.
00:54:18What changed your mind?
00:54:20I've had time to think about it, that's all.
00:54:24I want to try it for a month.
00:54:26A month?
00:54:27A month.
00:54:28Give it six months.
00:54:29Six months together.
00:54:30I'll be back on Sunday.
00:54:31I'm from Cincinnati.
00:54:32This time thing is only a month.
00:54:34It's about her, isn't it?
00:54:36Tell me about her.
00:54:38No.
00:54:39I want to know.
00:54:41Susan.
00:54:43It's only fair I know what I'm up against.
00:54:45She's very different than you.
00:54:48I don't know.
00:54:51She's more like me.
00:54:59I'll get dessert.
00:55:03I'm going away for the weekend.
00:55:06Can you get the phone?
00:55:07Did you hear me?
00:55:09Can you get the phone?
00:55:16Hello.
00:55:18Yeah.
00:55:21Roxy.
00:55:25Hi.
00:55:29Hi.
00:55:31No, I can't right now.
00:55:35Did you hear what I said?
00:55:37You said you're going away.
00:55:38That's okay.
00:55:39Okay, that's it?
00:55:41Susan.
00:55:42No, we're not fighting.
00:55:43What do you want me to say?
00:55:44Fine.
00:55:46Susan.
00:55:47Sure.
00:55:52Are you going to see her?
00:55:55No.
00:55:57Thank you.
00:55:58Susan, we may not know what the ending is yet,
00:56:02but it means that I know that I have to
00:56:05try hard to make it work with you.
00:56:10I'll be trying too.
00:56:13I don't want you to leave,
00:56:17and I will do whatever it takes to keep you.
00:56:22What?
00:56:26Nothing.
00:56:27Tell me.
00:56:28Forget it.
00:56:29No, I want to know.
00:56:30You're laughing.
00:56:31Okay, fine.
00:56:32It's just, you know how you've always said
00:56:34that you never wanted to be like Roxy?
00:56:36Well, right now you...
00:56:40you sounded just like her.
00:56:46You can do the dishes.
00:56:49Yeah.
00:57:03Gorgeous place.
00:57:05You're not intimidated by any of this, are you?
00:57:08Should I be?
00:57:09No.
00:57:10Don't tell me Johnny never takes you on business trips.
00:57:14And yes, I know.
00:57:15I said his name.
00:57:16I owe you five.
00:57:18So does he?
00:57:19What?
00:57:20Take you on trips?
00:57:21Not the business ones.
00:57:22He wanted me to, but I was always happier staying home.
00:57:27And after a while, he stopped asking.
00:57:31I mean, I'm never comfortable meeting people.
00:57:36All right, this trip we're going to work on your confidence level.
00:57:39I need that.
00:57:40Last night I made Johnny tell me about her.
00:57:42I know, keep your five bucks.
00:57:45Excuse me.
00:57:46It was awful.
00:57:48I felt so small.
00:57:50I never want to feel like that again.
00:57:53Want some advice?
00:57:54No.
00:57:56Yes.
00:57:58Maybe this isn't the right thing for you.
00:58:02Maybe this isn't the right thing for you.
00:58:05Maybe you should think about getting out.
00:58:18Did you ever know your dad?
00:58:20Are you kidding?
00:58:21Roxy hardly knew him.
00:58:24She was a cheerleader when she got pregnant.
00:58:27She had to drop out her junior year.
00:58:30I lived with my grandparents until they threw her out.
00:58:35I was two.
00:58:37We moved into this apartment.
00:58:40And she's still there.
00:58:44We'd shop for dented cans of spaghetti and pears.
00:58:48Eat off paper plates.
00:58:51Nothing permanent.
00:58:53Just half-priced cans and plates we could toss.
00:58:58It's like at any moment she was going to hit the road if the right man came along.
00:59:05And leave it all behind.
00:59:07Me included.
00:59:10I can't imagine what it would feel like to have a real mother.
00:59:16We could share mine.
00:59:22When did you get so good at this?
00:59:24When did you get so good at swimming?
00:59:26You first.
00:59:27No, I'm the artiste.
00:59:29You don't want an eyebrow across your nose, do you?
00:59:32I won my first regional gold when I was in high school.
00:59:37I've been swimming since I was four.
00:59:40One of Roxy's boyfriends, Skip or Rick or some short name,
00:59:45used to drop me in the deep end over and over again until I thought I'd drown.
00:59:49And then one day I learned to hold my breath and get away.
00:59:53Roxy never stopped him?
00:59:55Working on her tan or just had her hair done. Important stuff.
00:59:59Have you ever tried to talk to her about any of this?
01:00:02What's the use?
01:00:04Well, it's not going to change her, but it might make you feel better.
01:00:07Like what you did in the water.
01:00:10You took something that terrified you and you made it your best safe place.
01:00:14That's what I'm going to do.
01:00:17I'm going to get to where you are.
01:00:22Do you like that?
01:00:25Wow, Susan, you're beautiful.
01:00:27Come on, look for yourself.
01:00:37That's such a great color on you, you have to keep it.
01:00:51They all seem wrong.
01:00:53I mean, look at you.
01:00:55Susan, when's the last time you bought yourself something with color?
01:00:58I don't want to be Roxy. That's Roxy's thing.
01:01:01She's even one of those color consultants.
01:01:04Well, that's a great reason to wear beige for the rest of your life.
01:01:08Come on.
01:01:10Where are you taking me?
01:01:12We are going out.
01:01:14But come on, let's just go.
01:01:18When I was a kid in Chicago,
01:01:20I used to study the fashion magazines and try to sew dresses to look like the models.
01:01:25My mom and I tried so hard, but they always looked homemade.
01:01:30At least they felt that way.
01:01:32You know, when I got my first paycheck, I went out and bought myself a suit.
01:01:39Wow.
01:01:40What do you think?
01:01:41Gorgeous.
01:01:43Oh, here, try this one.
01:01:44One isn't enough?
01:01:45No.
01:01:46Okay.
01:01:48It's like a confessional.
01:01:50Are you Catholic?
01:01:52When Roxy's boyfriends were Catholic, I was Catholic.
01:01:56When the boyfriend was Baptist, I was Baptist.
01:02:00The only thing I've never been was a kid.
01:02:07Johnny really wants kids.
01:02:10And?
01:02:12And...
01:02:15I've been trying.
01:02:18I haven't gotten pregnant yet.
01:02:21And the reason is...
01:02:27I'm still on the pill.
01:02:31Johnny thinks my cycles are just messed up.
01:02:37I'm afraid to have kids.
01:02:39But I've seen you with the seniors.
01:02:41You're patient in giving.
01:02:43You'd be a wonderful mother.
01:02:45No.
01:02:46That's just it.
01:02:48I wouldn't.
01:02:51I've done okay.
01:02:55But there's this hollow place...
01:02:59inside that never goes away.
01:03:03And sooner or later...
01:03:07the kid would need something...
01:03:09that I couldn't give him.
01:03:12And that's when I'd pass that same hollow thing on.
01:03:17I wouldn't mean to.
01:03:19But I would.
01:03:21Susan, if you're gonna stay with him and work things out,
01:03:25you're gonna have to be honest with him.
01:03:30I know.
01:03:39Thank you.
01:03:50Wow.
01:03:53You look great.
01:03:57Did you have a good time?
01:03:58Yeah. It was fun.
01:04:01Did you go with anybody I know?
01:04:03A friend.
01:04:09Did you dress like that for me?
01:04:11What if I did?
01:04:15I just don't want to be the reason you do things, that's all.
01:04:19It's a little late for that.
01:04:21What is that supposed to mean?
01:04:24My high school freestyle medal.
01:04:26Yeah, I'm just cleaning out some of my old stuff.
01:04:29This pile is yours. What did you mean?
01:04:34This pile's yours? This pile's mine?
01:04:36I bet you were trying, Johnny.
01:04:38Susan, I...
01:04:41I am just cleaning out the garage.
01:04:43Don't read any more into it than that.
01:04:48Remember my old high school coach?
01:04:51Went to the University of Florida?
01:04:53Yeah, that same year he took three of the swarms to the Olympics.
01:04:59He offered me a full scholarship.
01:05:02You could have trained for the Olympics and you passed.
01:05:05Why didn't you tell me?
01:05:08I did what I wanted to do.
01:05:10Go to state. With you.
01:05:12So that's why you didn't do it.
01:05:15Because of me.
01:05:16I knew you'd say this.
01:05:17Well, damn right, that's the stupidest thing...
01:05:19Why? Because I chose you?
01:05:22I had choices.
01:05:24That's all I wanted to say.
01:05:27It wasn't weakness that brought me to you.
01:05:30And if we make it,
01:05:32it's not going to be weakness that keeps us together.
01:05:36You're right.
01:05:39I am stronger than I thought.
01:06:03I love you.
01:06:08Okay, that's it for today.
01:06:10We're almost there.
01:06:14It's getting harder and harder instead of easier and easier.
01:06:17Thanks.
01:06:19Hey, that Harvey, he sure is one big kidder.
01:06:22You know him.
01:06:24Laurel.
01:06:26Last night was incredible.
01:06:28It was just like when we were first married.
01:06:31Well, that's great, but...
01:06:32But what?
01:06:33He's back.
01:06:34That's the main thing.
01:06:36Susan, I don't want to say be careful,
01:06:38but be careful, okay?
01:06:41He's not going to leave.
01:06:43Not now.
01:06:44Susan, you can't pretend that the last few weeks never happened.
01:06:48It's amazing how long Harvey can hold his breath.
01:07:00Going down, going in.
01:07:02Laurel!
01:07:03Call 911, he's on a heart attack.
01:07:08Laurel!
01:07:11Laurel!
01:07:12Susan, I got him.
01:07:13I'm on him.
01:07:16Got him.
01:07:18Come on, you got him?
01:07:27Stairs.
01:07:28Lift.
01:07:30Breathe.
01:07:34Keep going.
01:07:35Okay.
01:07:36Okay.
01:07:37Easy.
01:07:38I got his head.
01:07:39Watch his head.
01:07:46Oh, please.
01:07:49He's got no breath.
01:07:56Come on.
01:07:58He's got no pulse.
01:08:00Start the compressions.
01:08:04One and two and three and four and five.
01:08:08One and two and three and four and five.
01:08:14Come on, Susan.
01:08:15Let's go.
01:08:16One and two and three and four and five.
01:08:18Easy, easy, Michael.
01:08:19I need your help.
01:08:25Come on.
01:08:27Mike, get in here.
01:08:31Go.
01:08:33Step in here.
01:08:34Start compressions.
01:08:36One, two, three, four, five.
01:08:52Laurel.
01:08:55It was my brother.
01:08:57It was my little brother who drowned.
01:09:01We were on vacation.
01:09:02First time at the beach.
01:09:05Dad and Mom were unloading the car, setting things up.
01:09:09I was supposed to watch him and not let him go in until they were there.
01:09:13He was so fast, he just ran and kept going out into the waves.
01:09:18And he was laughing.
01:09:21This wave came, it was huge.
01:09:25Tim tried to get back, but the riptide grabbed him and pulled him under.
01:09:32And this wave came and he went under.
01:09:36His head came up.
01:09:40He was reaching out to me.
01:09:44And then another wave came and he was gone.
01:09:49How did I let that happen?
01:09:52I was supposed to be watching.
01:09:54I was supposed to be taking care.
01:10:00I'm so sorry.
01:10:02Come on.
01:10:22It's hard, so hard.
01:10:30I'm sorry, I didn't mean to make so much noise.
01:10:45I'm glad you came.
01:10:47Johnny, this is my husband, Johnny.
01:10:49Johnny, this is my friend.
01:10:58Susan, I'm sorry I can't stay. I'm not feeling well.
01:11:07She's a psychologist. Sometimes things just hit her hard.
01:11:11I'm sorry.
01:11:20Laurel, I've been looking for you for an hour.
01:11:23Why didn't you tell me you were taking swimming lessons?
01:11:25I was taking them for you, you son of a bitch.
01:11:27What else have you lied about?
01:11:29Not the important things.
01:11:31Not about falling in love with you.
01:11:33Love? What do you know about love?
01:11:35The only thing you know about is taking care of Jake, that's it.
01:11:38You're really good at that.
01:11:40Last time we met, you were already lying.
01:11:44When I spilled that coffee on you that day, I'd just gotten off a plane from Atlanta.
01:11:47So when you asked me where I lived, Atlanta just slipped out.
01:11:50I didn't think I was ever going to see you again.
01:11:52So it didn't matter that I had misspoken.
01:11:54Because by then, it was too late.
01:11:56Misspoken? It started with a lie.
01:11:59I wasn't trying to start anything.
01:12:01But you did.
01:12:02You emailed me, you called me, you pursued me.
01:12:05You even had an Atlanta phone number.
01:12:07Not at first.
01:12:08The day I asked you out for the date, the day I showed up at your lecture,
01:12:10that's the day I got the Atlanta number,
01:12:12and that is the day that I decided that I wasn't going to stay with my old life any longer.
01:12:18She said it was like old times.
01:12:20You said yourself I needed to try.
01:12:23Well, maybe I was wrong.
01:12:25No.
01:12:27Susan's my best friend.
01:12:29Don't you see it's never going to work for us now?
01:12:31Don't say that.
01:12:34All I wanted was to get out of it with the least amount of harm to her.
01:12:38She never had to know.
01:12:40I never want her to know.
01:12:42You don't know how lucky you are.
01:12:44Susan is a gem and she deserves better.
01:12:47And frankly, Jake, Johnny, whatever you call yourself, so do I.
01:12:52If you care about me, if you really care, then don't call me and just leave me alone.
01:13:04I love you.
01:13:06I love you.
01:13:32Hi.
01:13:34Something fall. Are you all right?
01:13:40Oh, God.
01:13:42We didn't know. Laurel didn't know. I didn't know.
01:13:45Don't touch me.
01:13:47Oh, God.
01:13:49Just leave me alone.
01:13:51Oh, God.
01:13:53Just talk to me, okay? Just talk to me.
01:13:56Talk to me.
01:13:59She's scaring me. Stop it.
01:14:01How could you do that with her?
01:14:03She was my only friend, Johnny.
01:14:05You took everything.
01:14:07God, it must have been fun, huh?
01:14:10What are you talking about?
01:14:12Two of you must have had a couple laughs.
01:14:14We didn't know until the funeral.
01:14:16You expect me to believe that?
01:14:18That's the truth.
01:14:19Just get out.
01:14:21I don't ever want to see you again.
01:14:23Stop it. Stop it. Just listen.
01:14:25If you want her, just go to her.
01:14:27She doesn't want me.
01:14:29Okay?
01:14:31You're here because things didn't work with her?
01:14:35No. No.
01:14:38Don't lie to me.
01:14:40I am sick of your lies.
01:14:42Susan, look, we can start over.
01:14:45You are not the only one that lies.
01:14:47You see this?
01:14:49You want to know why we can't have kids, Johnny?
01:14:51This is why.
01:14:53How can you be on the pill and not kill me?
01:14:56I'm not good mother material, Johnny.
01:14:59You think magically I'd know how to do it
01:15:01by watching your mother once a week
01:15:03or reading a few books?
01:15:05I'd be faking it.
01:15:07And sooner or later, you'd start hating me,
01:15:10you and the baby both.
01:15:12This isn't about babies, Johnny.
01:15:14This is about us.
01:15:16You made me wrong.
01:15:19You made me feel wrong.
01:15:21You made me wrong in our marriage
01:15:23and wrong in my choices
01:15:25and wrong in who I am.
01:15:27You accuse me of doing too much for you.
01:15:30But I'll tell you something.
01:15:32What I'm doing now is for myself.
01:15:35No, you can make all the promises in the world
01:15:37and it doesn't matter.
01:15:39This isn't about you.
01:15:41It's about me, about finding out what I want.
01:15:44Susan, I...
01:15:46I want you to get out!
01:15:55Get out.
01:16:13Susan, I'm sorry.
01:16:17Are you?
01:16:19Yes.
01:16:21Which part, Laurel?
01:16:25The part where it didn't work out with him?
01:16:29Or the part where you broke my heart?
01:16:34I understand why I fell in love with you.
01:16:38You're everything I'm not.
01:16:40But you were my friend.
01:16:42Didn't that matter to you at all?
01:16:44Yes.
01:16:45That's why I ended it when I found out it was you.
01:16:48I might have let it go on if it were someone else,
01:16:51but I ended it because I care more about you.
01:16:54He was the best thing I had.
01:16:56That and my friendship with you, and you took them both away.
01:16:59God, I didn't mean to.
01:17:01What else have you taken that doesn't belong to you?
01:17:06I never want to see you again.
01:17:08Susan, please, listen to me.
01:17:11Please, don't go.
01:17:13Susan, you're leaving.
01:17:22I know it's only been four days since...
01:17:33If you're hoping I can say something that's going to change it,
01:17:38I don't think I can.
01:17:41I can't think of one good thing about Harvey dying.
01:17:46I do know...
01:17:49when people leave us, it's hell.
01:17:57I don't know how any of us get through it, how we're expected to.
01:18:02It's over.
01:18:05I don't want it to be, but it is.
01:18:09And that's what we're left to deal with.
01:18:13So maybe all we really got...
01:18:17is the memory of the good things they gave us.
01:18:22And there were a lot.
01:18:25A smile.
01:18:27Compassion.
01:18:29Time.
01:18:31That's a big one.
01:18:33Just being there.
01:18:36And maybe, if we think about those things,
01:18:40someday, it'll stop hurting.
01:18:48Okay, you guys.
01:18:50Let's get in the pool.
01:19:01In the pool.
01:19:04Okay, little circles.
01:19:08Strength training.
01:19:27Fascinating.
01:19:31My goodness.
01:19:32I want to talk to you.
01:19:34I've got company.
01:19:35You've always got company.
01:19:36You need to go.
01:19:38And who are you?
01:19:39I'm her daughter.
01:19:40Now get out.
01:19:43You never told me you had a daughter.
01:19:52How old are you, anyway?
01:19:53I had her very young.
01:19:54Tell him, Susan.
01:19:55Tell him.
01:19:57See ya.
01:19:58Honey?
01:20:00Are you coming back here, Mark?
01:20:06You are something.
01:20:08You know, just blasting in here,
01:20:10thinking you can just interrupt my life whenever you want.
01:20:13It's all I've ever been, just one big interruption.
01:20:16I kept you, didn't I?
01:20:18I'm supposed to be grateful?
01:20:20You could have let your folks raise me.
01:20:22They wanted to.
01:20:23You could have adopted me out.
01:20:25To strangers.
01:20:28What do you think you were, Roxy?
01:20:30I didn't have anyone that cared about me.
01:20:32A mother is supposed to care.
01:20:34You know what?
01:20:35I am listening to all this stuff,
01:20:37and it's like you and I had different lives.
01:20:39You never made me important.
01:20:43I never mattered to you.
01:20:45Growing up was all about taking care of Roxy.
01:20:48I was a kid, and I was too young to be sabotaging with you!
01:20:51I wasn't the Roxy!
01:20:53I was the kid!
01:20:55You were supposed to be the mother, Roxy!
01:20:59You know, I don't have to listen to this.
01:21:05You can't hurt me anymore.
01:21:07You know the funny thing?
01:21:09I never wanted to be like you, but I was.
01:21:12I wrapped my whole life around a man,
01:21:15but I am done with that!
01:21:17I have no idea what you're talking about.
01:21:20I grew up being grateful just to get somebody.
01:21:24Because I believed that if my own mother
01:21:26didn't think that I was worth saving,
01:21:28then I must not be worth much.
01:21:30But I am, Roxy. I am!
01:21:33Well, beggars can't be choosers.
01:21:39You should know.
01:21:44Goodbye, Roxy.
01:22:03Goodbye.
01:22:10Thank you.
01:22:23Laura. Hi.
01:22:26You look good.
01:22:28How have you been?
01:22:30Fine. You got some sun.
01:22:32Bahamas. Alone.
01:22:36I could carry those for you. No, I've got them.
01:22:42The divorce is final at the end of the year.
01:22:45Well, good luck to you.
01:22:48Happy life.
01:22:50Doing my best.
01:22:57I miss her, too.
01:22:59Yeah.
01:23:02Goodbye, Jake.
01:23:04Goodbye.
01:23:18I can't find my earplugs.
01:23:20Where are my earplugs?
01:23:22I have an extra pair.
01:23:27I can't find my float belt, Annette.
01:23:30Look, you don't need it.
01:23:32You're gonna be fine.
01:23:34Well, I've got stage fright.
01:23:37All champions have stage fright.
01:23:40Oh, they do.
01:23:56Are you okay?
01:23:58Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks.
01:24:05Great color on you.
01:24:07Thanks.
01:24:09Oh, my earplugs.
01:24:14Ladies, in the pool in five minutes.
01:24:17Oh, boy. Let's go. Let's get them.
01:24:28Come on.
01:24:46Stella, you're almost there. Kick your feet.
01:24:50Come on, Tina.
01:24:52Come on, Tina.
01:24:54Come on.
01:24:56You can do it, Stella. Keep going. Come on.
01:25:00You can do it.
01:25:02Come on. You can do it.
01:25:04You can do it.
01:25:06Whoo!
01:25:14You did it, Stella. You did it.
01:25:18You won!
01:25:23You're a champion.
01:25:25Harvey!
01:25:27Harvey!
01:25:29Harvey!
01:25:31Harvey!
01:25:33Harvey!
01:25:40I stopped by the house when Harvey left.
01:25:44I had no idea.
01:25:46You're so good at teaching.
01:25:49Thank you. Thanks.
01:25:53Did you get the sliding screen door for the patio?
01:25:55Yeah. It's in the garage.
01:25:57I could put it in.
01:25:58No. Let's...
01:26:01The new owners. They'll do it.
01:26:05Yeah.
01:26:06I'm going back to school in January.
01:26:09I'm going to finish up, and then I'm going after my master's in sports psychology.
01:26:14Oh, that's... that's... that's great.
01:26:19Susan, do you think someday, along the way, we could be friends?
01:26:33I don't know. It's too soon.
01:26:37Yeah.
01:26:38I do know. I'm not sorry I married you.
01:26:42Neither am I. Neither am I.
01:26:51Goodbye, Johnny.
01:27:03Goodbye.
01:27:06It wasn't that long ago.
01:27:09I'm so happy. I can't believe... I can't believe it!
01:27:28Why are you here?
01:27:30Susan, if you want me to go, I will.
01:27:32But just listen to me.
01:27:34I've had a lot of time to think, and I've been thinking about friendship.
01:27:44Please, it's only going to take a minute.
01:27:47I've been thinking.
01:27:49Maybe the deepest part of who we are is not all the good stuff,
01:27:53but the things that scare us and break our hearts.
01:27:56That's why we don't want to show anybody.
01:27:59But when we do, those are the people that we never want to lose.
01:28:04You're the only friend like that I've ever had.
01:28:07I miss that. I miss you.
01:28:12Is there any way to get us back?
01:28:20How can we pretend that nothing happened?
01:28:23We can't.
01:28:25All we can do is be there for each other when it starts to hurt.
01:28:30I'll try if you will.
01:28:49I stood up to Roxy.
01:28:51Good. It's hard, huh?
01:28:54Yeah.
01:28:57Yeah.
01:29:00I still haven't gone in the ocean.
01:29:04It's kind of like riding a bicycle.
01:29:07Or a horse.
01:29:09I don't ride horses.
01:29:11You'd be amazed at what I don't do anymore.
01:29:15Maybe next summer.
01:29:17How about now?
01:29:19A girl's vacation. Someplace exotic.
01:29:27Charlie, I'm going up to the farm.
01:29:34You okay?
01:29:36I'm right here.
01:29:39It's beautiful.
01:29:42It is.
01:29:49Stay right next to me, okay?
01:29:51I'll be right here. I promise.
01:29:57You ready?
01:30:00Yep.
01:30:02Hold your breath.
01:30:04Now!
01:30:08Oh God, that was great!
01:30:11Okay, here comes another.
01:30:13I'm right beside you.
01:30:16Yes!
01:30:26Yes!
