- YES, SIR, I DID. - YEAH, WELL, I...
DID MY TIME, MY SON DID HIS TIME.
THAT'S HOW I MET YOUR GRANDFATHER.
- HE'S A GREAT GUY. - REALLY?
UH, YEAH, YEAH, REALLY!
IT'S JUST, YOU KNOW, HE NEVER TALKS ABOUT THE SERVICE.
AH, I'M NOT SURPRISED. HE HAD IT ROUGH.
ANYWAY. UH, TO MAKE IT OFFICIAL FOR THE SUITS,
LET'S GET DOWN TO BUSINESS.
WE AT R.G.B.S.
ARE NOT ONLY LOOKING FOR THOSE WHO EXCEL,
BUT THOSE WHO EXCEED EXPECTATIONS
UNDER PRESSURE.
WELL, I CAN DEFINITELY WORK WELL UNDER PRESSURE.
THAT I CAN ASSURE YOU, MR. KORMAN.
YEAH, I CAN SEE THAT.
I CAN SEE THAT.
BUT I STILL NEED TO KNOW
WHERE THOSE AREAS OF EXPERTISE LIE
SO I CAN FIT YOU IN THE COMPANY.
I CAN UNDERSTAND THAT, AND...
I GAVE FIVE YEARS OF SERVICE,
MOST OF WHICH WAS IN COMBAT.
YEP. OKAY.
I'M HIGHLY TRAINED BY THE UNITED STATES MARINES,
AND I THINK I'D BE A PERFECT FIT FOR YOUR COMPANY.
WELL, I THINK SO TOO,
BUT WHAT I NEED TO KNOW FROM YOU
IS WHERE YOUR AREAS OF EXPERTISE ARE.
I WAS IN CHARGE OF MY UNIT,
AND, UH...
UH, I WAS IN CHARGE OF, UM...
[HARRY] DID YOU GAIN SPECIAL TRAINING IN ANY SPECIFIC AREA?
I HATE THIS FUCKING WEATHER.
IT'S BETTER THAN THAT HOT IRAQI DESERT WE WERE IN.
- I DON'T KNOW ABOUT THAT. - ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
YOU WERE ONE OF THE BIGGEST COMPLAINERS ABOUT THE HEAT.
- BULLSHIT! - THAT AIN'T NO BULLSHIT.
MAN, LISTEN HERE.
I HEAR HIS ASS MOANING FROM HERE.
AH, WHATEVER, AT LEAST I'M NOT A SORE LOSER.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S GO TO WORK, BOYS.
- [CHATTER] - SHUT THE FUCK UP.
[SHOUTS]
[HARRY] DID YOU GAIN SPECIAL TRAINING IN ANY SPECIFIC AREA?
DID YOU SPECIALIZE IN A SPECIFIC AREA IN THE MARINES?
JOE, ARE YOU OKAY?
MR. CARUSO?
JOE!
ARE YOU OKAY?
I'M SORRY, SIR. I GOTTA GO.
NO, JOE, DON'T DO THAT..
JOE!
JOE, COME BACK HERE. JOE!
WHO'S THERE?
[MAN SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]
I REPEAT. WHO'S THERE?
[MAN SPEAKING NATIVE LANGUAGE]
FUCK!
[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]
HELLO?
UH, UH, RAY, I, I...
I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SAY THIS.
YOUR GRANDSON JUST LEFT AND...
SOUNDS LIKE IT DIDN'T GO THAT WELL.
HE HAD A FLASHBACK, AND THEN HE BOLTED.
I'M JUST CALLING TO SEE IF EVERYTHING'S OKAY ON YOUR END.
HARRY, HE'S NOT HOME YET.
L-LISTEN.
I'D HIRE THAT KID IN A SECOND IF YOU WANTED ME TO,
BUT AT THE SAME TIME,
I'D HATE MYSELF IF HE GOT HURT HERE.
I NEEDED TO TALK TO YOU, AND NOW THAT I HAVE DONE THAT,
WHATEVER YOU WANT ME TO DO, I'LL DO. IT'S YOUR CALL.
YOU GUYS DID GREAT TODAY, MAN. YOU GUYS WERE ALL RIGHT.
- THANKS, COACH. - SEE YOU LATER.
YOU GUYS, TAKE CARE, MEN. HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND.
- ALL RIGHT? - YOU TOO, COACH.
ALL RIGHT. SEE YOU GUYS.

[FRANK] WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, WHOA, EXCUSE ME FOR A SECOND.
DANA. DANA!
YEAH, FRANK?
CAN YOU TAKE CARE OF PHIL FOR A SECOND?
OKAY, I'M ON MY WAY.
JOEY, WHAT'S GOING ON, KID?
HEY, FRANK.
HOW ARE YA, BUDDY?
I'M GOOD.
BUT YOU'VE BEEN GOING AT IT WAY TOO HEAVY AND WAY TOO LONG NOW.
JOEY.
YOU'RE NOT DRINKING, YOU'RE BINGE-ING.
RELAX, FRANK.
I'M GONNA PAY FOR IT.
IT'S NOT ABOUT THE MONEY, AND YOU KNOW THAT.
IT'S ABOUT YOU.
YOU'VE BEEN HITTING THE BOTTLE WAY TOO HARD LATELY.
WHO THE FUCK ARE YOU, MY FATHER?
NO, I'M NOT,
BUT THE ANSWER IS DEFINITELY NOT IN THE BOTTLE.
IS THERE A PROBLEM HERE?
NO, THERE'S NO PROBLEM.
JOEY'S JUST A LITTLE CONFUSED. THAT'S ALL.
COME ON, JOEY. FRANK'S BEEN REAL GOOD TO YOU.
I KNOW.
WELL, YOU BOTH HAVE.
BUT I'M A GROWN-ASS MAN. I CAN DO WHAT I WANT.
OH. A LITTLE RESPECT HERE, HUH? FRANK DOESN'T HAVE TO DO SH--
SAL, SAL, SAL. DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
JOEY'S GOING THROUGH A LOT OF EMOTIONS.
THAT DON'T MEAN HE CAN COME IN HERE
AND DISRESPECT YOU LIKE THAT.
YOU'RE RIGHT, SAL.
BUT I'M GOING THROUGH A ROUGH PATCH RIGHT NOW.
I JUST NEED AN OUTLET.
LISTEN, JOEY.
I SEEN A LOT OF GUYS GO DOWN THE SAME PATH,
AND THEY'VE NEVER FOUND THEIR WAY BACK.
I DON'T WANT TO SEE THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO YOU.
I APPRECIATE THAT.
WHY DON'T YOU GO DOWN TO FATHER TEROMINA
OVER AT SAINT PETER'S?
NOT READY TO TALK TO GOD JUST YET.
- WOULDN'T KNOW WHAT TO SAY. - HOW ABOUT ASKING FOR HELP?
THAT KID'S IN NO MAN'S LAND.
YEAH, BUT HE'S A GOOD KID.
HE'LL FIND HIS WAY BACK.
DR. BROWNE, YOUR NEXT PATIENT
A DAVID PARENTE IS HERE.
OKAY.
- HI, DAVE, HOW ARE YOU? - GOOD. HOW YOU BEEN?
GREAT. GOOD TO SEE YOU.
HOW YOU DOIN'?
I'M HERE TO SEE DR. GALANTE.
- UH, YOUR NAME PLEASE. - JOE CARUSO.
SO YOU'RE STRUGGLING WITH THIS.
NO, DOC. NO.
NO WAY.
EVERYBODY KEEPS TELLING ME I CAN'T DO THIS,
I CAN'T DO THAT. WELL, I AM GONNA, DAMN IT!
I AM GONNA!
I'M EVEN GONNA GET OUT OF THIS CHARIOT!
YOU KNOW, LAURA, THE...
THE MIND IS A VERY STRONG FORCE.
FILL THIS OUT, AND THE DOCTOR WILL BE WITH YOU SHORTLY.
TOO LATE FOR THAT.
CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS? DOCTOR WILL BE WITH ME SHORTLY.
I'VE BEEN BACK A YEAR ALREADY.
BASICALLY I HAD TO JUMP THROUGH HOOPS TO GET THIS APPOINTMENT.
THE WAR STARTED. I WENT.
I DIDN'T TELL THE WAR TO WAIT.
I HEAR THAT.
I'M MAX SCHELL.
- JOE CARUSO. - OH, NICE TO MEET YOU.

ARMY?
THIRD BATTALION, FIRST MARINES.

RAINBOW DIVISION. [LAUGHS]
AIN'T THAT A KICK IN THE ASS.

NO, I'VE BEEN HERE A FEW TIMES ALREADY.
OH, YEAH? SO WHAT'S THE VERDICT?
- GALANTE? - YEAH.
YEAH, HE'S A GOOD ENOUGH DUDE,
I MEAN, A LITTLE ROUGH AROUND THE EDGES,
BUT, I MEAN,
YOU FEEL BETTER GETTIN' THINGS OFF YOUR CHEST, YOU KNOW?
I GUESS IT'S TOO SOON FOR ANYTHING ELSE.
SAME TIME NEXT WEEK?
UH, NOPE. EVERY OTHER WEEK FROM NOW ON.
OKAY.
YOU THINK WE GOT IT BAD, RIGHT?
POOR GIRL.
YEAH, SHE'S ACTUALLY A REALLY COOL GIRL.
- SHE DEALS WITH IT WELL. - YOU KNOW HER?
WELL, I KNOW HER FROM HERE. JUST A LITTLE BIT.
- HI. GOOD TO SEE YOU. - HOW ARE YOU?

LAURA, THIS IS JOE.
- OH, NICE TO MEET YOU, JOE. - YOU, TOO.

WELL, LISTEN, I, UH, GOTTA GET OUTTA HERE.
- I GOT A DATE TONIGHT. - LOOK AT YOU.
SO, UM, HOW LONG YOU BEEN BACK NOW?
UH, ABOUT A YEAR AND A HALF AGO.
LIKE I SAID, IT'S BEEN A YEAR FOR ME.
THEY CALL THIS THE ADJUSTMENT PERIOD.
WHILE EVERYONE ELSE WAS LIVING THEIR LIVE CONTINUOUSLY,
WE NOW HAVE TO "ADJUST."
I'M ACTUALLY GLAD YOU SAID THAT.
IT'S GOOD TO FEEL LIKE YOU'RE NOT ALONE.
- MAX SCHELL. - OH, I'M UP.
NICE MEETING YOU.
YOU TOO, MAN.
TIME TO GET MY HEAD SHRUNK.
[LAUGHS] SEE YOU.
I'LL SEE YOU ON THE REBOUND.
HERE YOU GO.
THANKS.
THIS GONNA BE MUCH LONGER?
JUST HAVE A SEAT.
YOU ARE UP.
- DID YOU CUT YOUR HAIR? - I DID.
- I LOVE IT. - THANKS.
HEY.
YOU'RE JOE CARUSO?
- YEAH. - I'M MIKE GALANTE.
DO YOU WANNA HAVE A SEAT?
I WAS JUST SITTIN' OUT THERE FOR AN HOUR.
YOU USUALLY KEEP EVERYBODY WAITIN' THAT LONG?
YOU KNOW, JUST SO I CAN GET A SENSE OF WHERE WE'RE AT HERE,
DO YOU DRINK?
YEAH, SOMETIMES.
HOW OFTEN?
I'LL HAVE A BEER EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE,
- JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE. - JUST A BEER?
YOU DON'T DRINK VODKA?
YOU'RE NOT A JACK MAN?
NOT SINCE I LEFT THE SERVICE.
WHAT TIME OF DAY?
- I DRINK AT NIGHT. - OH, SHIT.
WHAT TIME OF DAY IS IT NOW?
WHAT THE FUCK KIND OF QUESTION IS THAT?
IT'S A SIMPLE ONE.
LOOK WE BOTH KNOW WHAT TIME OF DAY IT IS, ALL RIGHT...
SO WE KNOW WHAT TIME OF DAY IT IS. LET'S CUT THE SHIT.
- ARE YOU DRUNK? - NO, I'M NOT FUCKIN' DRUNK.
HAVE YOU BEEN DRINKING MORE THAN USUAL?
- NO! - WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?
COME HERE TO DROWN YOUR SORROWS?
MY SORROWS DON'T DROWN ALL RIGHT?
THEY JUST KEEP COMING BACK.
IF I WANNA HAVE A DRINK EVERY NOW AND THEN, WHAT DOES IT MATTER?
WHAT DOES IT MATTER? IT DOESN'T WORK.
HAVE A SEAT PLEASE.
- YOU GOT SOMETHING THAT WORKS. - YEAH, WHAT'S THAT?
YOU GOT YOUR PAD RIGHT THERE. WHY DON'T YOU WRITE ME A SCRIPT?
YOU CAN'T TAKE MEDS AND DRINK.
WHAT DO YOU THINK, I'M STUPID?
YOU THINK I WANNA BECOME SOME FUCKING JUNKIE PILL ADDICT?
YOU HAVE SOMETHING SPECIFIC YOU WANT TO DISCUSS WITH ME TODAY?
BECAUSE I READ YOUR RECORDS, OKAY?
I KNOW YOU DID A TOUR IN AFGHANISTAN.
- LET'S CUT TO THE CHASE. - WELL, IF YOU READ MY RECORDS,
THEN YOU KNOW WHAT TO TELL ME, RIGHT?
I'M NOT GETTING THE SENSE YOU WANT MY HELP, SON.
OH, I WANT THE HELP, I'M JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT
HOW IN THE HELL YOU'RE GONNA HELP ME
WHEN YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW ME.
- NO, I DON'T KNOW YOU. - NO, YOU DON'T KNOW ME.
- I'M NOT YOU. - OH, YOU'RE NOT ME.
- WHO THE HELL AM I TO TELL... - THAT'S RIGHT!
WHO THE HELL ARE YOU TO TELL ME WHAT'S BEST FOR ME ANYWAY, HUH?
HUH?
DOC?!
LOOK AT YOU.
YOU'RE A FUCKIN' JOKE.
YOU DON'T HAVE A CLUE.
WELL...
I MAY NOT HAVE A CLUE,
BUT I THINK IN 1968, RECON,
I THINK I SAW MORE THAN YOU THINK I SAW.
AND I TURNED THE SHIT I SAW INTO A PHD.
YOU UNDERSTAND? THREE BOOKS WERE SOLD.
NOW YOU WANNA GIVE ME SHIT,
I'M GONNA SHOVE IT RIGHT BACK UP YOUR ASS.
YOU DON'T WANT WHAT I GOT?
WELL, THERE'S A HUNDRED MEN OUT HERE THAT DO.
'CAUSE THEY READ CREDENTIALS.
NOW YOU SEE THAT LITTLE GIRL HERE THAT JUST WHEELED HERSELF OUT OF HERE?
YOU KNOW WHY SHE'S HERE?
BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO GET BACK TO WHO THE FUCK SHE WAS.
YOU KNOW HOW SHE DOES THAT? SHE TALKS.
SHE TALKS TO ME IN A CIVIL TONE.
'CAUSE SHE'S SCARED.
SHE'S SCARED JUST LIKE I WAS. THE WAY YOU ARE.
THE WAY ANY KID THAT COMES IN THIS ROOM WITH SHIT IN HIS PANTS
AND HE DON'T KNOW WHY.
NOW YOU FIND THAT INSUFFERABLE?
DO YOU FIND THAT UNACCEPTABLE?
HEY, THEN DO YOURSELF A FAVOR, MARINE,
AND GET THE FUCK OUT RIGHT NOW.
'CAUSE YOU KNOW WHAT?
YOU'RE NOT EVEN A GRUNT IN MY EYES RIGHT NOW, SON.
YOU WOULDN'T MAKE IT AS A FUCKING MOONBEAM.
OKAY?
THAT'S YOUR SCRIPT FROM THE DOC! YOU GOT THAT, RAG MAN?
THAT'S YOUR MED FROM THE JOKE!
IT NEVER STOPS.
I BEG YOUR PARDON?
THE DREAMS.
VOICES.
I THINK ABOUT THIS ONE DAY IN AFGHANISTAN.
WE'RE SCOUTING THE AREA,
I SPLIT UP THE UNIT.
I SENT CRUZ ACROSS THE STREET TO CHECK ON A GROUP OF CIVILIANS.
AND THERE WAS THIS EXPLOSION.
AND THEY WERE ALL GONE.
WE STARTED TO TAKE FIRE
AND BENNY...
HE WENT DOWN IMMEDIATELY.
I WENT TO CHECK ON BENNY.
HE WAS GONE.
THEY KILLED HIM.
THAT'S WHEN I STARTED SHAKING.
I DOVE BEHIND THE CORNER OF A BUILDING,
AND THAT'S WHEN I HEARD THE VOICES.
THERE WAS PEOPLE COMING, AND I--
I COULDN'T TAKE THE CHANCE.
AND WHEN IT WAS OVER,
I CAME AROUND THE SIDE OF THE BUILDING...
AND THAT'S WHEN I SAW THE BODIES.
I KEEP SEEING THE BODIES.
THAT'S WHAT I SEE.
HOW OFTEN?
EVERY DAY.
I DREAM ABOUT IT EVERY SINGLE NIGHT.
I LOOK DOWN,
I SEE THIS KID
WITH HALF A HEAD.
DO YOU HAVE A PLAN?
TO HURT YOURSELF?
HMM?
HELLO, MR. CARUSO.
HOW'S JOE?
SAME.
- HOW ARE YOU DOING, SARAH? - I'M OKAY.
WHAT'S GOIN' ON WITH YOU TWO?
DID HE DO SOMETHING WRONG TO YOU?
NO.
I JUST DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO, MR. C.
I'M SO SCARED.
I KNOW YOU ARE, SWEETHEART.
WE ALL ARE.
HAS HE CALLED YOU AT ALL?
NO.
WE REALLY LEFT OFF ON BAD TERMS.
BE PATIENT. HE'LL COME AROUND.
I HOPE SO.
I LOVE HIM SO MUCH.
LISTEN, I'M SURE THINGS ARE GONNA WORK OUT.
HE'LL WAKE UP.
HE'S JUST GOING THROUGH SOME TOUGH TIMES NOW,
BUT I KNOW THAT HE LOVES YOU.
WHY DON'T YOU GO HOME AND GET A LITTLE REST?
THINGS WILL GET BETTER. I PROMISE.
NOW LET ME SEE A BIG SMILE ON THAT PRETTY FACE.
- GOOD TO SEE YOU. - YOU, TOO.
- HOW'S NEXT TUESDAY? - UM...
- HOW'S ONE O'CLOCK? - PERFECT!
- OH, MAX. - JOEY, HOW YOU DOIN'?
AH. NOT BAD, MAN. HOW YOU DOIN'?
GREAT. THINGS ARE REALLY GETTIN' BETTER FOR ME.
DOC IS REALLY HELPING ME OUT A LOT.
REALLY, I MEAN, I CAN SEE THINGS MORE CLEARLY NOW.
- AH, THAT'S GOOD, MAN. - YEAH, THAT'S GREAT.
WHAT'RE YOU DOIN' TONIGHT? YOU WANNA GRAB A BEER?
OF COURSE. I'LL MEET YOU AT THE BAR?
HOW ABOUT I JUST COME PICK YOU UP LIKE,
I DON'T KNOW, TEN O'CLOCK?
- EVEN BETTER. - THAT'S COOL?
- YEAH. - ALL RIGHT.
- GOOD LUCK. - I'LL SEE YOU LATER.
BYE.
[CAR BEEPS]
NO, I UNDERSTAND.
YEAH, I'LL BE RIGHT THERE.
SAL!
WHAT'S UP, BOSS?
I GOT TO LEAVE EARLY AGAIN.
ELLEN'S HAVING A BAD NIGHT.
I'M SORRY TO HEAR THAT.
- HEY, WHAT'S UP? - HEY, HOW'S IT GOING, BOYS?
CALL ME IF YOU NEED ANYTHING
OR IF THERE'S ANYTHING I CAN DO.
WHAT'RE YOU GONNA DO?
I APPRECIATE IT, THOUGH.
NOW YOU CALL ME IF ANYTHING, OKAY?
WILL DO. WE'RE GOOD.
DON'T WORRY.
- LAURA. - WHAT'S UP, LAURA?
- GOOD TO SEE YOU. - LOOKIN' GOOD.
COULD I GET TWO BEERS, PLEASE?
LOOK, I KNOW I ASKED YOU ALREADY AND YOU WEREN'T READY TO TELL ME,
BUT I GOTTA ASK YOU AGAIN, ALL RIGHT?
WHAT'S THE DEAL? WHY THE SHRINK?
TO TELL YOU THE TRUTH, I'M GAY.
AND THE MILITARY DOESN'T ACCEPT IT.
NO MATTER WHAT THEY TELL YOU. BELIEVE IT OR NOT.
I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT'S WHY YOU WERE SEEING A SHRINK.
WELL, THAT'S NOT THE ONLY REASON, BUT...
LOOK, MAX,
WITH WHAT WE'VE BEEN THROUGH,
ALL RIGHT, THAT SHIT DON'T MATTER TO ME.
YOU ARE WHO YOU ARE. ALL RIGHT?
YOU DON'T OWE ME ANY EXPLANATIONS.
I APPRECIATE THAT, BUT MOST SOLDIERS DON'T AGREE WITH THAT.
WELL, SCREW THEM! ALL RIGHT?
I WOULD HAVE BEEN HONORED TO SERVE WITH YOU.
I GUESS I JUST DIDN'T REALIZE HOW HARD IT COULD BE ON SOMEBODY.
THANKS.
YOU KNOW WHEN THE DON'T ASK DON'T TELL POLICY ENDED,
THAT'S WHEN I CAME OUT, AND THE ABUSE I TOOK.
I MEAN, THE BEATINGS AND THE RIDICULE.
I MEAN, I COULDN'T SLEEP.
SO I JUST KEPT REHASHING THAT OVER AND OVER AGAIN IN MY MIND.
AND I JUST WANTED IT TO END,
SO THAT'S WHEN I DECIDED TO GET SOME HELP.
WHAT ABOUT YOU? WHAT'S YOUR STORY?
AH.
I DON'T WANNA TALK ABOUT IT.
JUST THAT I'M HAVING TROUBLE
DEALING WITH ALL THE SHIT THAT WENT ON OVER THERE.
I JUST FEEL ISOLATED.
YOU KNOW, CUT OFF FROM WHO I WAS BEFORE.
I FUCKED UP AND PEOPLE DIED.
I'M JUST BARELY KEEPING MY SHIT TOGETHER.
HEY, GUYS, ON THE HOUSE.
THANKS, SAL. APPRECIATE IT, MAN.
EXCUSE ME?
GO GET A ROOM.
HEY, I THINK THEY'RE IN LOVE.
IT AIN'T WORTH IT, JOE. HE AIN'T WORTH IT, MAN.
WHOA. WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING, YOU FUCKING GIMP.
- WHAT THE FUCK? - [LAUGHING]
- THAT'S NOT COOL. - WHAT?
- YOU'RE AN ASS! - WHAT...
YOU COMING, GRACE?
I CAN'T.
TAKE IT EASY, DUDE! AGH!
- WHAT THE FUCK YOU GONNA DO! - THAT'S ENOUGH!
- OPEN YOUR FUCKIN' MOUTH! - THAT'S ENOUGH.
GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE RIGHT NOW BEFORE THE COPS SHOW UP.
GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE AND TAKE HER WITH YOU.
HE AIN'T TALKIN NOW IS HE, THAT MOTHER FUCKER?
AND IF I EVER SEE YOU IN MY FUCKING BAR AGAIN
I'M GONNA SHOVE THIS BAT SO FAR UP YOUR ASS
YOU'RE GONNA THINK YOU'RE A POPSICLE.
OH, WHAT'S UP, BRI? LONG TIME NO SEE.
YEAH.
WHAT CRAWLED UP YOUR ASS?
JOE, I'M SURE WHAT HAPPENED OVER THERE WASN'T PLEASANT.
YOU'RE NOT THE SAME GUY NO MORE.
TOO MUCH FUCKIN' BOOZE AND ONLY GOD KNOWS WHAT ELSE.
LOOK AT YOU. ALL HIGH AND MIGHTY.
NO. NOT ALL HIGH AND MIGHTY, NOT AT ALL.
BUT I'M NOT TRYIN' TO BRING EVERYONE DOWN
AND GET EVERYONE DRUNK 'CAUSE I'M HURTIN'.
WE ALL LOOKED UP TO YOU.
WHAT HAPPENED?
I WENT TO WAR, YOU PIECE OF SHIT.
I COME HOME AND EVERYBODY'S JUST LAUGHING IT UP!
OH, SO NOW EVERYBODY AROUND YOU HAS TO PAY THE PRICE?
WHAT, WE'RE NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE FUN NO MORE?
YOU MOTHERFUCKER!
OH, OH, GUYS! GUYS! GUYS. CALM DOWN.
JOE, BRIAN'S RIGHT, MAN. WHAT HAPPENED?
YOU CHANGED. WE ALL LOOKED UP TO YOU.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
SCREW YOU TOO, IAN, ALL RIGHT?
I'M SICK OF YOU FUCKIN' CRYBABIES.
COME ON, JOE, LET'S GET OUTTA HERE.
JUST COME ON.
COME ON.
[SIREN WAILING]
- FUCK! - WHAT?
IT'S THE COPS.
DAMN IT.
WERE YOU SPEEDING?
I DON'T FUCKIN' KNOW!
WANNA GIVE ME A LIFT TO THE MOVIES?
YOU'VE BEEN HOME FOR OVER A YEAR, AND THERE'S STILL NO STRUCTURE.
NO JOB, NO CHANGES.
ALL YOU DO IS HANG AROUND THE HOUSE AND DRINK.
PASSES THE TIME.
I DON'T GOTTA LISTEN TO THIS.
WHERE YOU GOIN'?
IS IT THAT EASY FOR YOU TO QUIT NOW?
MAYBE IF YOU ACTED LIKE A MAN I WOULDN'T GIVE YOU ANY SHIT.
YOU EVER THINK ABOUT THAT?
WHY DON'T YOU SHAVE THAT MESS OFF YOUR FACE?
- I KINDA LIKE IT. - YEAH, YOU LIKE IT
BECAUSE IT GIVES YOU SOMETHING ELSE TO HIDE BEHIND.
I JUST TOLD YOU I'M TRYIN'. ALL RIGHT?
AND I KNOW IT DOESN'T HAPPEN OVERNIGHT.
I GET THAT!
BUT YOU HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO!
AND YOU HAVE TO GET MOVING!
YOU KNOW WHAT?
FORGET IT.
RAY. JOEY.
- HEY, UNCLE NICK. - HEY.
OH, WHERE YOU GOIN'?
I'M TRYIN' TO GO TO THE MOVIES,
BUT I'M GETTIN' A LECTURE INSTEAD OF A RIDE.
WHERE'S YOUR CAR?
OH, BIG SHOT.
LOST HIS LICENSE FROM A DUI.
- SEE? - COME ON, RAY.
JOE, I'LL TAKE YA.
IF MY BROTHER HERE DOESN'T HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT?
NICK, IT'S BEEN A LONG MINUTE.
WELL, I JUST STOPPED BY TO SEE HOW THINGS ARE GOIN'.
OH, THEY'RE GOIN'. HE'S JUST BEING A LITTLE DIFFICULT.
WELL, AREN'T WE ALL AT TIMES?
BESIDES YOU KNOW THE KID'S BEEN THROUGH A LOT.
HE'S GOT A HEART OF GOLD JUST LIKE HIS MOTHER.
YEAH, BUT HIS MOTHER WAS AS REASONABLE AS CAN BE,
AND HE'S A HARD-HEADED KID.
DON'T I KNOW IT.
HEY, I'M RIGHT HERE!
YEAH, YOU ARE.
- OKAY IF I TAKE HIM? - SURE.
IT SAVES ME FROM HAVING TO DO IT.
COME ON, JOEY, LET'S GO.
WHAT'S UP WITH YOU AND YOUR GRANDFATHER?
I'M DEALIN' WITH ALL KINDS OF SHIT.
AND HE JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND ME.
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHIN'.
WHEN YOUR MOM AND DAD DIED,
NORA AND I WANTED TO RAISE YOU,
BUT RAY WOULDN'T HAVE IT. HE STEPPED UP.
HE SAID, NO, HE'S GONNA RAISE YOU.
HE DEVOTED HIS WHOLE LIFE TO GIVE YOU
EVERYTHING THAT YOU NEEDED.
SO DON'T THINK FOR ONE MINUTE THAT HE DOESN'T CARE.
I DON'T KNOW.
I MEAN, MAYBE.
NO, NOT MAYBE.
HE CARES!
YOU KNOW, I KNOW YOU'RE GOIN' THROUGH A LOT OF STUFF RIGHT NOW,
BUT, MAN, YOU'RE HITTING IT HARD,
AND YOUR GRANDFATHER'S RIGHT.
IF YOUR MOTHER AND FATHER WERE ALIVE RIGHT NOW
AND THEY SAW THE WAY YOU ARE
IT WOULD BREAK THEIR HEARTS.
WELL, THEY'RE NOT!
LISTEN, I'M SORRY, UNCLE NICK, ALL RIGHT?
I KNOW.
JOEY, LISTEN.
WE'RE FAMILY. LEAN ON US.
THAT'S WHAT WE'RE HERE FOR.
ALL RIGHT, THANKS, UNCLE NICK.
IT'S JUST SOMETHIN' I GOTTA DO ON MY OWN.
ARE YOU DRUNK AGAIN?
YEAH, YOU'RE DRUNK.
WHAT ARE YOU DOIN'? WAITIN' UP FOR ME?
YES, I'M WAITING UP FOR YOU.
YOU KNOW, I DON'T KNOW IF YOU'RE GONNA COME HOME
OR IF THEY'RE GONNA FIND YOU DEAD SOMEWHERE.
- I CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS AGAIN. - YOU CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS?
I DID NOT RAISE YOU TO BE A LOSER.
YOU UNGRATEFUL LITTLE--
THIS IS HOW YOU PAY ME BACK?
THIS IS HOW YOU SMEAR THE MEMORY OF YOUR PARENTS.
YOU'RE PUSHING ME TOO FAR THIS TIME.
OH, REALLY?
MAYBE THAT'S WHAT YOU NEED TO WAKE THE FUCK UP!
YOU KNOW WHAT, GRAMPS? I HAD ENOUGH OF YOU, ALL RIGHT?
YOU'RE NOT MY MOTHER, YOU'RE NOT MY FATHER,
SO THANKS FOR THE LIFE YOU GAVE ME, BUT STAY THE FUCK OUT OF IT!
WELL, THEN YOU GET THE FUCK OUT!
IF YOU CAN'T MAN UP!
I CAN'T TAKE THIS ANYMORE.
I JOINED THE MARINES TO BE LIKE YOU.
I'M SO SORRY!
I'M SORRY TOO, JOEY.
I JUST WANTED YOU TO BE PROUD OF ME.
I AM.
I'M PROUD.
BUT I'M SCARED.
I'M JUST TRYIN' TO GET THROUGH TO YOU. I DON'T KNOW HOW.
I JUST NEED SOME TIME.
PLEASE JUST GIVE ME SOME TIME.
[MUFFLED HELICOPTER BLADES WHIRRING]
- HEY, SWEET SUE. - HEY, MAX.
- HI. - YO!
- WHAT'S UP? - AH, NOTHING, MAN.
- HOW'VE YOU BEEN? - STILL BREATHING.
- HOW'S WORK? - IT'S TOUGH.
YOU KNOW, WHEN YOU'RE IN THE SERVICE,
YOU KNOW THAT SOMEONE ALWAYS HAS YOUR BACK.
WELL, THAT'S HOW WE SURVIVE.
YEAH, BUT WHEN YOU GET BACK, THAT'S DONE.
EVERYONE'S OUT FOR THEMSELVES.
YEAH, TELL ME ABOUT IT.
HOW YOU MAKING OUT? HE'S HELPING YOU?
AH. YOU KNOW, THE TRUTH IS SOMETIMES
WHEN THINGS ARE BROKE,
THEY CAN'T BE FIXED.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKIN' ABOUT?
DON'T TELL ME YOU'RE THINKIN' OF QUITTIN'!
THAT'S IT?
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
OH, COME ON, JOE.
DON'T TALK LIKE THAT.
NOTHIN'S EVER THAT BAD.
GUYS!
OH, MY GOD, LAURA. YOU LOOK FANTASTIC.
THE DOC SAYS HE DOESN'T NEED TO SEE ME FOR ANOTHER MONTH.
OH, I'M GONNA MISS THAT SMILE.
YEAH, RIGHT?
SEE? SOMETIMES YOU WORK HARD ENOUGH AT SOMETHIN'
AND SOMETIMES YOU WIN.
YOU SEE? SOME THINGS THAT ARE BROKE CAN BE FIXED.
YEAH, BUT I HEARD THE WOUNDS YOU CAN'T SEE ARE THE WORST.
AND I BELIEVE IT.
- HOW YOU FEELIN'? - I'M ALL RIGHT.
I FEEL LIKE I SHOULD'VE STARTED MUCH SOONER.
YEAH, ME TOO.
I WISH YOU HAD.
CAN'T SAY I'M LIKING THE WAY YOU LOOK.
GOTTA DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS WARDROBE.
YOU LOOK LIKE A SWAMP HOG.
WHAT ARE YOU, A THERAPIST OR A STYLIST?
YOU COULD TIGHTEN IT UP.
WOULDN'T HURT.
WHAT DOES IT MATTER WHAT I LOOK LIKE?
- IT'S ALL ONE-SIDED ANYWAY. - HOW SO?
YOU DO EVERYTHING YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU TO DO
AND THEY JUST LEAVE YOU...
HANGIN'.
YOU CAN'T KEEP ASSIGNING BLAME.
YOU KNOW?
WE DON'T DEAL IN HALF TRUTHS.
WE'VE BEEN THROUGH THAT.
YEAH.
HOW'S YOUR GRANDPA?
UH, HE'S ALL RIGHT.
YOU KNOW, OUR RELATIONSHIP'S STRAINED, THOUGH.
STRAINED, HUH?
YOU ADDING TO THAT?
[BOTH CHUCKLE]
THIS FUNNY THING LOVE.
IT'S ALL A PART OF IT, ISN'T IT?
THE SUPPORT PROCESS.
OR WHATEVER THE HELL IT IS.
COME ON, HAVE A SEAT.
- [CAR DOOR CLOSES] - [JOE] WHAT'S UP, GRAMP?
NEED A HAND?
NAH, I GOT IT.
BUT I CAN USE THE COMPANY.
AH, IT'S NO PROBLEM.
I GOT NOTHING GOING ON ANYWAY.
HOW WAS THE SESSION?
AH, IT WAS ALL RIGHT, I GUESS.
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
I DON'T KNOW.
I WISH I DID.
WELL, YOU JUST HANG IN THERE.
BY NOW YOU KNOW THAT SOME SESSIONS ARE BETTER THAN OTHERS,
BUT THE IMPORTANT THING IS YOU'RE GETTING THE HELP THAT YOU NEED.
I JUST-- I HOPE IT'S NOT TOO LATE.
IT'S NEVER TOO LATE.
I TOLD YA.
I HAD A TOUGH TIME WHEN I GOT BACK FROM VIETNAM.
YEAH, BUT THAT'S THE THING.
YOU NEVER TALK ABOUT IT.
NO, I KNOW, BUT NOW WE HAVE MORE IN COMMON.
- [CAR ENGINE STOPS] - OH, MAX.
- HEY, WHAT'S UP, JOE? - WHAT'S UP, MAN?
IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN, MR. C.
- IT'S RAY. - RAY.
IT'S NICE TO SEE YOU, MAX. YOU LOOK GOOD.
THANK YOU. I FEEL GOOD.
ME AND SOME FRIENDS ARE GOING OUT TONIGHT. YOU IN?
AH, I DON'T KNOW, I THINK I'M GONNA JUST CHILL IN TONIGHT.
I'M NOT REALLY IN THE MOOD.
JOE, IT'S GONNA BE FUN. YOU SURE?
NAH, I'M GOOD, MAN. I'LL CATCH YOU NEXT TIME, THOUGH.
- OKAY. - ALL RIGHT?
LET ME KNOW IF YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND.
ALL RIGHT, MAN. I APPRECIATE THE INVITE.
BYE, MR. C-- UH, RAY.
GREAT DUDE, MAN.
JOE, YOU CAN GO WITH THEM.
WE'LL TALK ABOUT THIS LATER.
NAH, I THINK WE SHOULD HAVE THAT TALK NOW.
WHAT DO YOU SAY?
SURE.
SO, GRAMP, HOW COME YOU NEVER TALK ABOUT YOUR TIME AT WAR?
ALL YOU EVER SAY IS YOU SERVED YOUR COUNTRY, PERIOD.
COMBAT IS A HARD THING TO GET YOUR HANDS AROUND.
MOST PEOPLE DON'T UNDERSTAND, EVEN THOUGH THEY THINK THEY DO,
AND I KNOW THEY WANT TO,
BUT UNLESS THEY'VE ACTUALLY BEEN THERE THEMSELVES,
THEY JUST DON'T.
LIKE I SAID, YOU AND ME HAVE MORE IN COMMON NOW.
WE BOTH SERVED.
BUT MORE THAN THAT.
I HAD PTSD BEFORE THEY CALLED IT THAT.
- YEAH? - OH, YEAH.
FLASHBACKS.
NIGHTMARES, PANIC ATTACKS.
HOW BAD WAS IT?
YOUR GRANDMOTHER AND I SLEPT IN SEPARATE BEDS FOR TWO YEARS.
WHY?
I CHOKED HER IN HER SLEEP ONE NIGHT.
I HAD MY HANDS AROUND HER THROAT
AND SHE WAS TURNING BLUE WHEN I WOKE UP
AND REALIZED WHAT I WAS DOING.
HOLY SHIT.
I HAD NO IDEA.
DID MOM AND DAD KNOW?
THEY KNEW I WAS A MARINE. THEY DIDN'T KNOW MUCH ELSE.
YEAH, WELL, HARRY SAID HE KNEW YOU FROM THE V.A.,
BUT HE REALLY DIDN'T GET INTO IT.
YEAH, BUT THAT'S COMMON.
MOST GUYS DON'T LIKE TO TALK ABOUT IT.
AND WHEN THEY DO, IT'S USUALLY ABOUT THE GOOD TIMES.
YEAH, BUT HOW'D YOU GET THROUGH IT?
I FOUND THAT, FOR ME, THE BEST THING WAS
I KEPT IN TOUCH WITH MY MARINE BUDDIES.
THEY UNDERSTOOD ME.
THEY REALLY HELPED ME GET THROUGH IT.
YEAH. YEAH, I CAN SEE THAT.
YOU KNOW, MAX HELPS ME OUT A LOT.
THAT'S A GOOD THING.
YOU KNOW, I STILL KEEP IN TOUCH
WITH SOME OF THOSE GUYS EVEN AFTER ALL THIS TIME.
IT'S A LIFELONG BOND.
ROGER THAT.
SO'S A FAMILY'S LOVE.
YEAH, BUT, YOU KNOW, THAT'S DIFFERENT.
NOT AS DIFFERENT AS YOU THINK.
I WILL ALWAYS HAVE YOUR BACK.
I KNOW, POP.
I KNOW.
WANT TO COME BY AND WATCH THE GAME LATER?
YEAH, DEFINITELY. WHAT TIME?
I THINK THE START TIME'S 8:00, SO COME BY 7:30.
WE GONNA EAT?
YEAH. I'LL ORDER, UH--
I'LL ORDER PIZZA OR CHINESE, WHATEVER YOU'RE IN THE MOOD FOR.
WHATEVER, WHATEVER.
I MIGHT WANT SANDWICHES.
UH.
YOU KNOW, YOU SUCK.
NOW THAT'S JUST NOT RIGHT.
NO, I DIDN'T MEAN IT LIKE THAT.
- I MEANT BASKETBALL. - I KNOW WHAT YOU MEANT.
YO, I THOUGHT YOU WERE SERIOUS.
[MAN] HEY.
MAXI PAD.
WHO'S YOUR NEW GIRLFRIEND?
RELAX. THE KID'S NAME IS JASON.
HE'S BEEN DOING THAT TO ME SINCE HIGH SCHOOL.
I DON'T KNOW HOW YOU LET THAT SHIT ROLL OFF YOUR BACK, MAN.
IT'S NOT WORTH IT. IT'S NOT WORTH IT.
NO, YOU DON'T DESERVE THAT. YOU DON'T DESERVE THAT.
JOE?
WHAT THE FUCK, JOE?
YOU CAN'T TALK TO ME NOW?
[BELL RINGING]
[SNIFFLING]
I REALLY MISS THEM.
I'M GLAD THEY'RE NOT HERE TO SEE ME LIKE THIS.
YOUR PARENTS MUST HAVE BEEN WONDERFUL PEOPLE.
YEAH, THEY WERE.
ESPECIALLY MY MOM.
YOU KNOW, I LOVE MY FATHER, BUT MY MOM....
YEAH, SHE GOT ME.
SHE WAS SO COMPASSIONATE.
SHE'D KNOW WHAT TO DO TO STEER ME IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION.
SHE'D KNOW THE RIGHT THING TO SAY.
SHE ALWAYS DID.
LIKE I SAID.
YOU'RE DIFFERENT WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT YOUR MOM.
WHAT'S THE STORY WITH YOUR DAD?
[SCOFFS] MY DAD?
HE WAS JUST LIKE MY GRANDFATHER, YOU KNOW.
NOTHING'S EVER QUITE GOOD ENOUGH.
AND HE SHOULD KNOW BETTER.
HE WENT THROUGH IT HIMSELF.
YOU GOT TO GIVE HIM A BREAK
BECAUSE HE'S A GOOD MAN, AND HE LOVES YOU SO MUCH.
WHAT'D YOU COME HERE FOR?
TO PISS ME OFF?
LET'S JUST SAY I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LOVE AND HATE,
AND I KNOW THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ANGER
THAT YOU FEEL FUELED BY LOVE OR HATE.
OH, YOU DO?
WHAT, ARE YOU TRYING TO BECOME A THERAPIST NOW?
MAYBE. WHY NOT? THEY MAKE A LOT OF MONEY.
I COULD SPECIALIZE IN GAYS COMING OUT.
YEAH, RIGHT.
YOU KNOW, I ALMOST WENT TO JAIL BECAUSE OF YOU AND YOUR CAUSE.
OH, NOW, YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO GET VIOLENT.
YOU'RE THE ONE WHO PUSHED ME ASIDE AND THEN RAN OVER THERE.
I WASN'T GONNA HIT HIM, THOUGH.
WHAT WERE YOU GOING TO DO, GO GET A GAME OF PARCHEESI?
- HOW ABOUT DISCUSS IT? - COME ON.
YOU EVER HEARD OF DISCUSSING IT?
- DISCUSS IT? - YEAH.
WITH THOSE ASSHOLES? NO FUCKING WAY.
ALL RIGHT? THEY DESERVED EVERYTHING THEY GOT.
BESIDES, THEY HAD NO IDEA WHAT LAURA WENT THROUGH
OR THAT WE WENT TO WAR FOR HIS FUCKING RIGHTS.
SO YOU HIT HIM WITH A BOTTLE.
JOE, JOE, JOE.
YOU HAVE TO-- YOU HAVE TO CHILL.
I MEAN, YOU GOTTA PUT YOUR MIND IN A GOOD PLACE.
YOU GOTTA RELAX.
YOU CAN'T BE MAD AT THE WORLD ALL THE TIME.
- DOCTOR MAX. - YOU LIKE THAT.
I'M PROUD OF YOU, MAN. I KNOW.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW YOU'RE ALWAYS SO CALM.
I REALLY DON'T.
IT'S EASY.
YOU JUST HANG OUT WITH SOMEBODY MORE FUCKED UP THAN YOU.
[LAUGHING] YEAH, RIGHT.
OH, MAN.
WELL, I APPRECIATE YOU COMING, MAN.
LET'S GET OUTTA HERE.
- YOU READY? - YEAH.
EXPOSURE THERAPY IS ABOUT GETTING DOWN
TO YOUR PERSONAL HISTORY, YOU KNOW?
THERE'S NO OUT.
WHY DO YOU KEEP AVERTING TO THESE OPINIONS, HUH,
ABOUT YOUR OWN SELF WORTH?
I TOLD YOU ALREADY.
OKAY, INDULGE ME.
I COULDN'T TALK TO SARAH WITHOUT HER MENTIONING MARRIAGE.
YOU KNOW, I COULDN'T HOLD A CONVERSATION WITHOUT HER
SAYING WE SHOULD HAVE KIDS.
MISSED OPPORTUNITIES TO GO TO WAR.
I CAME BACK, I WASN'T THE SAME GUY.
[SIGHS]
I HAD TO PUSH HER AWAY A LITTLE.
SO YOU DON'T WANT TO GET MARRIED OR YOU DON'T WANT TO HAVE KIDS?
OR MAYBE YOU JUST WANT TO THROW ALL THAT--
I DON'T DESERVE IT.
WELL, HERE WE GO AGAIN.
I OPENED THE DOOR.
JOSEPH, DO YOU CARE ABOUT THIS GIRL?
I MEAN, YOU LOVE HER?
YOU MISS HER?
DOES SHE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED OVER THERE?
- NO. - WHY NOT?
CAUSE SHE DOESN'T NEED TO KNOW ALL THAT STUFF.
YOU DON'T THINK SHE DESERVES TO?
I DON'T KNOW.
DO YOU TALK?
NO, I THOUGHT IT WAS BETTER IF WE DIDN'T TALK.
CAN YOU CALL HER?
I MEAN, WHAT'S TO LOSE?
[CHUCKLES]
MAN, YOU DON'T STOP, DO YOU?
OH, I'M STARVING, MAN.
- FOOD'S HERE. - IS IT?
- WOW, THAT WAS FAST. - HI, GUYS. HERE YOU GO.
- THANK YOU. -HOW COME YOU GOT THE SAME THING?
I GOT THE CHICKEN, THOUGH.
IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE YOU GUYS NEED OR ARE YOU OKAY?
- OH, NO, THANK YOU. - OKAY, COOL. ENJOY.
- THANK YOU. - YOU'RE WELCOME.
YO, SO THE DOC THINKS I SHOULD CALL SARAH,
OPEN UP TO HER,
AND PART OF ME WANTS TO,
AND THE OTHER PART OF ME'S TELLING ME,
"EH, IT'S NOT A GOOD IDEA."
MAYBE THE DOC'S RIGHT. GIVE IT A SHOT.
WHAT IF SHE SLAMS THE DOOR IN MY FACE?
YOU TURN AROUND AND YOU LEAVE.
- YEAH, LIKE IT'S THAT EASY. - [BOTH CHUCKLE]
ME AND YOU, WE'RE SURVIVORS.
YEAH, YOU'RE RIGHT.
SO I GUESS THIS SHOULD BE NO SWEAT.
IT'S GREAT KNOWING SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS ME.
I FEEL LIKE THERE'S NO NEED FOR A TRANSLATOR.
NO, YOU'RE RIGHT.
YOU GOT MY BACK,
I GOT YOURS.
[DOORBELL RINGING]
CAN I HELP YOU?
- MR. CARUSO? - YEAH.
I'M MIKE. I'M JOE'S DOCTOR.
OH, PLEASE COME IN. IS EVERYTHING OKAY?
YEAH, SORRY TO SHOW UP UNANNOUNCED LIKE THIS.
- DOC. WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? - HEY.
WHAT'S WRONG?
I GOT SOME BAD NEWS.
IT'S YOUR BUDDY, MAX.
WHAT HAPPENED?
HE TOOK HIS LIFE.
DURING THE NIGHT.
WHAT?
NO.
NO, IT CAN'T BE.
NO, NOT MAX.
I WAS JUST WITH HIM YESTERDAY.
NO, I DON'T BELIEVE YOU. [SOBBING]
I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS.
BUT MAX WAS SO STRONG.
NO FUCKIN' WAY.
I WISH HE WOULD HAVE COME TO ME.
I'M HERE FOR YOU, JOE.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?
I'M HERE FOR YOU.
AND WHERE DID THAT GET MAX?
- YOU GOTTA OPEN UP, MAN. - NO.
HEY, YOU WON'T OPEN UP?
WE'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.
WE FAILED HIM. WE DID.
BUT YOU DON'T FAIL YOURSELF.
YOU DON'T FAIL YOURSELF.
I'VE GOT YOU DOWN FOR TOMORROW AT 10:00, ALL RIGHT?
- I'M EXPECTING YOU. - I DON'T KNOW.
LOOK, YOU DON'T LET ME DOWN.
YOU GOTTA KEEP AN EYE ON HIM.
DON'T WANT HIM TO SLIP FURTHER INTO, UH...
I'LL DO MY BEST, DOC, BUT HE KEEPS PUSHING ME AWAY.
YEAH.
WE CAN ONLY OFFER CHOICES.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU, SIR.
[HELICOPTER BLADES WHIRRING]
[MUSIC PLAYING]
JOE, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
NO, I'M JUST-- JUST LOOKING.
AS OF NOW, THE DOORS TO THIS PLACE ARE NO LONGER OPEN TO YOU.
YOU'RE NOT WELCOME HERE ANYMORE TILL YOU GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER.
THAT'S NOT COOL, MAN.
LOOK, KID, GO HOME TO YOUR FAMILY.
YOU HAVEN'T CROSSED ANY LINES YET.
MR. FAZIO...
I'M SORRY.
WHEN DID YOU GET IN LAST NIGHT?
DON'T KNOW. DON'T CARE.
JOEY, YOU REALLY NEED TO PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER,
GET PAST THIS.
I KNOW THAT MAX WAS YOUR DEAR FRIEND,
BUT YOU HAVE TO MOVE FORWARD.
WHAT DO YOU KNOW?
I KNOW THAT YOU HAVE TO MOVE ON.
I KNOW THAT YOU DID IT ONCE BEFORE AND YOU CAN DO IT AGAIN.
I DON'T THINK I CAN MOVE ON.
YES, YOU CAN.
LISTEN, JOE.
YOU NEED TO TAKE CHARGE OF YOUR LIFE.
NOBODY ELSE CAN DO THAT FOR YOU.
DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?
I'M SCARED.
WHY DON'T WE EASE INTO THINGS?
SHAVE, GET DRESSED,
THAT'LL BE THE FIRST STEP. SMALL STEPS.
SURE. SMALL STEPS.
WHAT DO YOU WANT?
- CAN WE TALK? - ABOUT WHAT?
HAVEN'T YOU HURT ME ENOUGH?
LOOK, I'M SORRY FOR BEING SUCH A JERK, ALL RIGHT?
I DON'T KNOW, JOE.
I CAN'T LET YOU KEEP STEPPING ON ME.
I KNOW, ALL RIGHT? AND I'M SORRY.
I JUST THINK WE SHOULD TALK.
- I DON'T KNOW. - DIDN'T YOU ONCE TELL ME
I SHOULDN'T BE GOING THROUGH THIS ALL ALONE?
COME IN.
I DID THINGS THERE THAT I'M NOT PROUD OF.
YOU KNOW, THINGS I CAN'T GET OUTTA MY HEAD.
I'M SORRY I TOOK IT OUT ON YOU.
I STUCK WITH YOU ALL THIS TIME
AND YOU STILL FEEL THAT YOU HAVE TO HIDE THINGS FROM ME?
JOE, YOU NEED TO TELL ME WHAT HAPPENED.
THERE'S JUST CERTAIN THINGS YOU SHOULDN'T HEAR.
WELL, I WANT TO HEAR IT ALL.
[LINE RINGS]
[RAYMOND] HELLO?
- YEAH, RAYMOND. - YEAH.
DOCTOR GALANTE HERE.
HEY, DOC, HOW ARE YOU?
I WAS CURIOUS, IS JOSEPH HOME?
NO, HE WENT TO HIS GIRLFRIEND'S.
IS THERE A PROBLEM?
NO, NO, NO, HE MISSED HIS APPOINTMENT.
I WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERYTHING IS ALL RIGHT.
HEY, JOE, GOOD TO SEE YOU.
- HOW'S THINGS GOIN'? - HEY, MAN. GOOD, MAN, THANKS.
ENJOY YOURSELVES.
WELL, THAT'S GOOD, GOOD. THAT'S ENCOURAGING.
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, THEN. JUST HAVE HIM CALL
AND RESCHEDULE?
LOOK, I TOLD YOU THINGS I WASN'T COMFORTABLE WITH.
I DON'T WANT YOU THINKING OF ME DIFFERENTLY.
NO.
NOW I UNDERSTAND.
I'M GLAD YOU OPENED UP TO ME.
I SHOULDN'T HAVE CAME AT YOU LIKE THAT, AND, WELL,
- IT'S OVER NOW. - IS IT?
SOMETIMES WHEN THINGS ARE BROKE, THEY CAN BE FIXED.
YOU'RE LEARNING TO LIVE WITH IT?
I'VE BEEN DOING A LOT OF THINKING LATELY.
OH, YEAH? ABOUT WHAT?
ABOUT BEING A HUSBAND AND A FATHER.
I THINK I WOULD HAVE BEEN GOOD AT IT.
I THINK SO, TOO.
I'VE MISSED THIS, YOU KNOW.
I'VE-- I'VE MISSED US.
TALKING ABOUT A FAMILY AND...
[GIRL] I DON'T WANT TO PUT MY COAT ON.
ONE DAY YOU'LL HAVE YOUR OWN KIDS.
THEN YOU'LL UNDERSTAND.
THESE ARE REALLY GOOD. YOU SHOULD TRY 'EM.
- I'LL BE RIGHT BACK. - OKAY.
- WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE DOING HERE? - SHUT THE FUCK UP!
