All language subtitles for Party of Five s03e06 Going Home.e

[passengers chattering]

-[plane rattles]
-What was that?

Nothing. Just a little
turbulence, perfectly normal.

[rattles]

Talk to me.

Talk to me. Yeah. Distract me.

-Distract you?
-Yeah. You know. Uh...

You know, tell me what you're planning
to say when we're, like, at, uh,

Dartmouth and the
admissions officer says,

"So, Miss Salinger, what do you think
our college has to offer you?"

The best damn male-female ratio
on the eastern seaboard.

[laughs]

[gasps]

Sarah, come on, we're
going to have fun.

We're going to meet a
lot of cool people,

and we're going to
see great campuses

and we're going to
ace our interviews.

Look, I'm sorry.
This isn't working.

Do you think by any chance the
in-flight movie stars Brad Pitt?

[passenger coughing]

God.

God, we have to fly
across all that?

Wow. Three thousand miles. That's,
that's a long way from home, huh?

-[laughing]
-I know.

Isn't it great?

[laughing]

[door opening]

[horn honking]

-Hey.
-Hey.

Julia get off okay?

I guess. Um, Charlie--

Is Bay back from the
airport with Owen?

No, not yet. Charlie,
there's something--

Listen, there's a few more bags in the
truck. Would you get them for me?

Yeah, in a sec. But,
first, Charlie, I really--

No Claud, I did not get
you that French shampoo.

That stuff costs like a
jillion dollars a bottle.

-Look, there's something-- -[Gene] Anybody
thought to open a window in there?

The room is like a morgue.

Gene, what are you-- What's he--

-Look, I was trying to tell you
that-- -It's slim pickings in there.

[Ellie] But I found
enough for a fruit salad.

Ellie...

Charlie, hello.

Uh, you're out of milk.

Wait a second. What's going on here?
What are you two--

Oh, you think you're the one
owed an explanation? Is that it?

Our daughter's ill. Our
daughter's been ill for weeks.

We don't hear squat
from you, Mr.

Charlie, You couldn't have picked
up the phone and called us?

Ellie, why are we surprised?

Just thank God she had the good sense to
know you were in over your head and call us.

Kirsten called you?

No, no. Your sister.

Julia?

[Claudia] Uh-uh. Me.

I did.

I called them.

[theme song playing]

? Everybody wants to live ?

? Like they wanna live ?

? And everybody wants to love ?

? Like they wanna love ?

? Everybody wants to be ?

? Closer to free ?

? Closer to free ?

No one does laundry
around here anymore.

She wasn't getting
any better, Charlie.

I mean, you couldn't
make her better.

Are you kidding me?

It's just like you
said with Jody.

I mean, just what you said.

Can't play around with stuff
that's over your head, Charlie.

Are you--

[sighs]

Did you do this just
to get back at me?

Did you do this to hurt me?

I did this to help Kirsten.

They had a right to know.

Why didn't you talk to me first?

Why didn't you tell me
before you called them?

What the hell did
you do that for?

I did the right thing.

You can't--

Do you have any idea what a
mess of this you've made?

Do you?

Get out of here.

Go to your room. Close the door. I don't
care. I just don't want to look at you.

I want you out of my sight.

[Ellie] Honey, you
barely nibbled.

When was the last time you ate?

[Ellie] Have you eaten
anything today?

I don't remember.

-Honey, how can you not remember?
-Stop grilling her, Ellie.

I'm not. I'm not grilling her.
I'm--

I'm just trying to help.

Honey, are you, uh, on some kind of
medication? You know, some kind of pills?

No.

Are you seeing somebody?

You know, a specialist? You
have to take care of yourself.

I have a doctor, Mom.

Why didn't you say something?

Why didn't you let us know?

We could have taken care of you.

[Charlie] God, I mean-- I
mean, talk about stupid.

Like those two people ever made a
situation better in their entire lives.

She just--

She shouldn't have called them.

You're right. She
shouldn't have.

You should have.

As soon as Kirsten got sick.

They're her parents.

Look, Kirsten asked me
not to tell them. Okay?

Like she's thinking real
clearly these days?

What do you want, huh?

You want to give me a hard time?
Is that it?

Yeah. Yeah, I do.

Yeah, well, you know what, Bailey?
You're not here.

You're not around. You drift in a few
times a month to steal toilet paper

and do your laundry, and you
think you have a right--

You know what? I don't need to live here
to see that keeping Kirsten's parents

in the dark was not
the smartest--

I'm telling you Bailey, you don't
know what's going on here.

You don't know what I'm dealing with and
you don't know how I'm dealing with it.

Instead of just waltzing in with
an opinion about everything,

why don't you just do us all a
favor, man, and just butt out.

[Slow rock music
playing on stereo]

[siren wailing]

[sighs]

Those are my beers.

So I'll replace them.

-Nice to see you too.
-[grunts]

I am in such a crappy mood.

Yeah? Well, join the club.

A Thousand and One Quips,
Epithets, Zingers, and Bon Motts.

What's a bon mott?

Bon mot.

I hope it's French for
something mildly insulting

to say to your father on the
occasion of his 60th birthday.

You have got to make a toast?

Yeah. It's okay. It'll actually be the first
time we've spoken in about two years.

You want to help?

Why not?

I'm in a bash-your-family
kind of mood right now.

Too bad it's not
Charlie's birthday.

To Charlie, up yours.

That's clever.

We need to be much more
drunk for this to work.

Here. Come on, catch up.

[sighs]

Okay.

To your dad.

To my Dad,

who put the "F" back in father.

What does that mean?

I have no idea.

Dad,

what can I say about you
that hasn't already

been said a thousand times
about Richard Nixon?

I'm moved.

Thank you.

Let's all raise our glasses to the man I
always hoped would be the father I never had.

[woman] And there's a
Master's tea tomorrow.

Oh, the-- The porcupine
labyrinth, that's Thursday.

Very big deal around here.

I'm sorry? The what?

Here, it's all in your campus-events
bulletin in your admissions package.

So, uh, what happened
to your friend?

Sarah, was it?

Oh, she's using the hall phone.

She wanted to let her family
know that she got in okay.

I was going to use it next.

So-- So you know a lot
about this place.

Any advice for my interview?

Just dare to be different.

I deliberately used the words "varmint"
and "grand pappy" in my interview.

And I only moved to Texas
in the 10th grade.

But I swear, that's
what got me in.

Ah, Texas, huh?
Well, California.

-San Francisco, actually.
-Cool.

Be prepared to get homesick.

Oh, not me.

Actually, distance is part of the
appeal of an eastern school.

[Sarah sighs]

Hey. Hey, are you all right?

Yeah.

Yeah. My mom was showing a
house in Pacific Heights,

tripped on a doggy toy, and
fell down some stairs.

She broke her hip.
She's in the hospital.

[woman] What?

Is she okay?

Well, I gave my dad
the payphone number.

He's going to call me after
he talks to the doctor.

You know, Julia, if you have to use the
phone, could you do it now, please?

You know what?

It's okay. I'm 3000 miles away.

I don't need to know what's
going on with them, right?

I want to know why she's
not on medication.

Well, she-- She was
on medication.

Sh-- We're having a little
trouble with the dosage.

She was feeling-- Look, I'm
talking to the doctor.

I'm going to talk to the doctor.

I said I'm taking care of it.

We have a right to be involved
in Kirsten's care, Charlie.

I'm not saying you don't. Okay?

I think you've made
enough mess as it is.

What the hell is that
supposed to mean?

That means that my daughter wouldn't
be upstairs, refusing to eat,

not caring whether she ever gets out
of bed, if it hadn't been for you.

This is a medical condition. This
is not something that I did to her.

You can add up all the
mistakes that I've made,

and all the problems that we've
had, and it doesn't add up to this.

This is something inside of her.

I'm telling you, I've
talked to the doctor.

There is some depression
in your family, Gene.

Really?

Your mother and her sister,
well, they both had a problem.

Do you mind?

How about that?

Man, you don't think you could
have mentioned the family history?

My family's got nothing
to do with this!

That's not what it
sounds like to me, Gene.

-If you want to start pointing
fingers-- -You know something--

Enough! Both of you! What
good is this doing her?

Tell me, is it making
her any better?

I don't want to hear anymore.

Hey.

You're up.

And you're dressed.

I forgot I had these shoes.

What you doing just
sitting there?

-You want me to make you some--
-Gene, I am not having any luck.

We'll have to ask directions
from somebody on the street.

Oh, Charlie, O'Farrell and
Fillmore, where's that?

Uh, one block east and
about 10 blocks south.

Right near Mt. Zion Hospital.

Why? Where are you--

-Is he affiliated, Gene?
-[Charlie] Is who affiliated?

He's the head of Psychiatry. We
were lucky he could squeeze us in.

Fred Sullivan says that Dr.
Thornstrom is the top man

on the West Coast, Kirs.

I told you she already
has a doctor, Dr. Leto.

We just thought that a second
opinion would be in order.

Charlie keeps the maps in
the glove compartment.

It's okay, sweetheart. We
know where we're going.

We don't want to be late, baby.
Come on.

Look, just give me five minutes
to jump in the shower--

They're expecting
only the three of us.

Isn't that right, Ellie?

Yes. Uh, we, uh--

We thought it would be best
if it was just family.

Where they going with her?

What? No laundry?

Promised Owen I'd take him
to the Exploratorium today.

Hey.

Listen, I thought about

some of the stuff I said
to you yesterday and--

Whatever. I don't care.

[chattering]

Sorry, these things
are so stuffy,

but you get bonus points
for spilling anything

on any girl wearing knee
socks or a headband.

Are you kidding? This
is-- This is great.

I mean, finger sandwiches and--

And chamber music, and all this
amazing intellectual conversation.

Do you know that my dad
said that it might be weeks

before my mom can even go to
the bathroom by herself again?

What?

Oh, God, I'm sorry.

I, I'm really a total basket case.
I'm really sorry.

Don't be. You've got
a lot on your mind.

Yeah. Sarah, if you're
not feeling up to this--

No. No. I mean, I-- You
know, I-I-I'm here.

I might as well make
the best of it, right?

And you said the point
was to mingle, so...

Hey, isn't that Gerald Hoskin?

The English professor, yeah.
Why? You know him?

Professor Hoskin? Hi.

I-I'm Julia Salinger.

I'm applying for
admission next year.

So, Sarah,

why don't you go dazzle
Garvin over there?

You know, rumor has it
she's in line for a Nobel.

Or how about Hill d'Ville?

He's not tenured, poor
guy, but cute as hell.

Well?

Do you think they'd let me call San
Francisco if I put it on my credit card?

So I go over there to
make peace, right?

Even though he's the one
that owes me an apology.

But I figure, okay, why not just
be big about the whole thing.

And it's like, he doesn't
even want to hear it.

He could care less.

Well, screw it.

I'm through.

Interesting head-wear
you've got working there.

Took my kid brother
to the Exploratorium.

Oh.

What came express mail?

You want a laugh?

You have got to read this.

My dad, right, in
addition to sending me--

Three hundred dollars?

Yeah. For my ticket home.

Like he just assumes
that I wouldn't go

to his birthday thing
unless he pays for it.

And as if that's not enough,

sends me an outline
of suggested material

for me to include in
his birthday toast.

-Can you believe that?
-Wow.

-The nerve, huh?
-He actually Heimliched someone

on the floor of the New
York Stock Exchange?

You know, the thing is
I was actually working

on a toast when the
mail came today.

You know, I mean, it
wasn't anything hilarious

or eloquent, but--

I don't know. I mean, it
was pretty heartfelt.

You know, it's like
he never expected me

to come up with anything nice
to say about him on my own.

Like whatever I do, I'm
going to disappoint him.

[sighs]

You know what? What's the point?

You know, I mean, why even
bother making the effort, huh?

Hey, it beats me.

[scoffs]

Hi.

How did it go?

He had a really big fish
tank in his office.

-Well?
-It, uh, was productive.

What did he say?

-Well, he said that--
-Ellie.

We have it under
control, Charlie.

You've got what under control?

I'm just-- I'm going to--

Sweetheart, I'm going
to come with you.

Did he-- Did he talk
about her medication?

Did he recommend a
different kind of therapy?

What did he say?

Gene, Gene, don't do this to me, please.
I'm begging you.

I love her.

Like you loved her
on her wedding day?

Or like you loved her all
those months her mom and I

took care of her, the first time
this happened, and you were nowhere?

You love her? Fine.

Look what good that's done her.

That was the stupidest, boringest,
worst movie I've ever seen.

[laughs]

No kidding. You know, I
just figure any world

in which someone can
get paid $10 million

to be in that piece of crap

is a world in which good things

can actually happen
to me too, you know?

I'm starving. What do you say?

Uh, I can't. It's
not in the budget.

Oh, come on, please?

I'm paying. Okay?

I've got $300 burning
a hole in my pocket.

Hey, why buy a plane ticket home

when you can get a
really great snack

for the same money, huh?

A $300 snack?

Look, if you disapprove, I
don't want to hear it. Okay?

Because I'm not going home.

-So just don't--
-No, I'm not--

I'm not going to make
you feel guilty.

This is what college
is about, right?

We move out. And we
finally have the right

to look back and say, "Hey, you know what?
That's your life.

That's your birthday.

That's your problem, not mine."

I mean, I can't worry about the
same four people my whole life.

I mean, enough is enough.

It's not like it
makes me feel good.

So...

...like Charlie says,

I'm butting out.

How'd it go?

Lots of questions, I bet, huh?

Yeah, a lot of questions.

Did he say he wants
to change anything?

Does he want to change how
you're being treated?

I don't know.

What about the medication?

I don't know.

Kirsten--

I don't know. Okay? I
don't-- I don't remember.

Okay. Okay.

I just...

I know you don't want to talk right now.
But I just need...

Did he say that I wasn't taking
care of you in the right way?

-Did he ever say that?
-Charlie--

Kirsten, please, I
am trying here.

I know. I know you're trying.
And everyone's trying.

[crying] Everyone wants me to be okay.
I just--

Stop pulling on me!
I want everyone

-to stop pulling on me!
-Okay. Shh.

Okay.

This is bad. I know.
This is making it worse.

I'm going to take care of it.

I'm going to take care of you.

[inhaling sharply]

Please.

I promise.

I promise.

[phone dialing]

Hoskin said I should bring my best
stuff to the interview tomorrow.

-That's a good idea.
-Yeah, I know.

I'm sure my brother will--

Claudia, hey, listen, there's some
stuff I need you guys to do for me.

I need Charlie to fax
some of my short stories.

Yeah. Wait, listen, Jule.

No, no. I can't get
Charlie right now.

[Gene] Hell we are--

-Something's going on here.
-[Charlie] You are a guest!

-Something pretty bad.
-[Charlie] Do what I say!

[Gene] I'm going to do what I
think is best for my daughter!

Claudia, who is that yelling?

Claud?

What's-- What's going on?

I don't give a damn. You're not running
around this house keeping secrets from me.

Sneaking Kirsten out, making
private doctor's appointments?

We're taking care
of her finally!

No! You're making it worse!

This is making it worse. All
this yelling and plotting,

this is the problem.

I agree.

Good.

So I want you out now.

Fine. No problem. We'll find a hotel,
will be out of here within the hour.

Fine.

Then we'll make arrangements to take
Kirsten back to Chicago with us.

Like hell you will.

You're not married to her.
She's still our daughter.

-You've got no right to
keep her here. -What?

Ellie?

We're taking her home.

I'll start packing.

It's mostly bad news.

Yeah, well, it's the
story of my life.

Can I see her? W-Would
you let me in?

Gene's probably right down the
block with the engine running,

waiting to make a quick getaway
as soon as you grab her, right?

No. He doesn't even know
that I'm here. Uh...

He's had a meeting
this morning with--

With a lawyer.

A lawyer?

[sighs] God.

So this is where we're
at, huh, Ellie?

Lawyers? Legal maneuvers?

I'm sorry this has
turned so ugly.

It's just that Gene feels
so strongly that--

What about you, Ellie? Huh?

Where are you on all of this?

Because I thought after your last
visit that-- That-- That you and I...

I thought we
understood each other.

I mean, didn't we?

Yes.

Then help me.

Please, tell him to back off.

Tell him that leaving her
here with me in this house

will get her better a
hell of a lot faster.

I can't do that, Charlie.

Why not?

Because I have rocked
the boat enough lately.

He took me back.

After what I did,
he took me back.

So now I have to be on his side,

on my husband's side.

In other words, you're willing to sell out
your daughter to hold on to your marriage?

That was a terrible
thing to say, Charlie.

Just let me look in on her, huh? I just want
to see her. Then I'll leave. It's all I want.

Can you just give me that?

[Julia] He said that?
Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

And what did her parents say?

Are you serious?

[phone clicks]

Claudia? Claud? Claud?

Can I borrow another quarter?

No way. You've been
on for half an hour.

I'll give you a
dollar for a quarter.

Two dollars?

Three?

[Sarah] What does that mean?

Mom?

Mom?

[sighs]

Put Dad on, okay?

I love you.

I said I love you.

-I said--
-She knows. Okay?

Dad? Dad, hi. Hi. No, no.

Our interviews aren't
for 10 more minutes.

What is mom talking about her--
Her Jell-O has freckles?

No, Dad. She's not
making any sense.

Really?

Well, what kind of painkillers?

Look, is Bay around?

Well, maybe you should
call him, Claud.

Because it sounds
bad, that's why.

I just wish I could
be there with her.

I don't know, just to be there.

Maybe if he were there,

maybe if one of us was there...

We need some-- Some kind
of order or something.

A restraining order,
whatever you call it.

Something that says they
can't come to my house--

It's not so simple, Charlie.

No. It is simple. It's simple.

Okay. Look, maybe, maybe a
restraining order's too much,

but my point is obviously they can't
just take Kirsten away, right?

That's-- That's
kidnapping, right?

Charlie, the problem
is you're not married,

and you're not engaged,

and they are her parents.

This is nuts. I mean, she wants to be
with me. There is absolutely no question.

That's your word, Charlie.

Come on, this can't be right. It can't be
just, "Hey, that's just the way it goes."

That's--

[sighs]

What can I do?

Well, you can take her
parents to court,

start legal proceedings.

What? Like
cross-examination with--

With judges and doctors and--
And a million questions?

You have to see her now.
She's not--

She can't--

I'd really have to put
her through all that?

Maybe.

Claudia, slow-- Slow down. Okay?

And stop yelling. I've
got a monster headache.

What is Charlie doing
at the lawyer's?

I don't know. But they said that
they were going to take her away.

They were going to
take Kirsten away?

-Yeah. Back home, to Chicago
and-- -[doorbell rings]

Someone's here.
Someone's at the door.

Look, you have got to come home, Bay.
You have got to come home right now.

-Oh, no.
-[Bailey] Claudia?

What's going on, Claudia?

Claudia?

[dial tone]

You can't come in.

Charlie isn't here, and
no one else is here.

So I can't let you in.

Come on, Claudia.

No. Because you might try to take her
away, and I couldn't stop you, so...

That's not why I'm here.

I don't believe you.

Just-- Just give Charlie
this letter. Okay?

It's from a lawyer. It explains
what's going to happen.

Please, don't do this.

-Claudia--
-Please.

He loves her and-- And he takes care of
her. And I shouldn't have called you.

Yes, you should have. You
were worried about Kirsten.

You did exactly the right thing.

No, uh-uh. I-- I was just angry at him.
That's why.

You really shouldn't
take her away.

I mean, this is
where she belongs.

And if you saw Kirsten and Charlie together,
you would know that. And I just--

You can still change your mind.

Please.

Please.

Just give your
brother this letter.

[Cheering]

[band playing marching music]

[Sarah] Whitmore? Padgett?

Rival dorms.

And they do this every year?

It's like this big
hundred-year-old tradition,

supposedly meant to promote
all this rah-rah stuff,

like good sportsmanship.

[announcer] Ladies
and Gentlemen,

behold the dueling porcupines!

[cheering]

[announcer] On your marks.

You looking for a payphone?

No, actually. Julia. We were going
to meet up after our interviews.

Julia! Julia, over here.

[announcer] And they're off!

Go! Go! Go!

Hey, hey, hey, so
how'd yours go?

What? Oh, that. Fine.
Look, I called--

What? You called who?

The airline. I called the airline.
They said it's fine.

We could change our
flight no problem.

Change our flight?

Yeah. There's one
first thing tomorrow.

I know it means missing the
rest of our interviews.

But look at us, can you focus on anything
except what's going on back home?

-Hey.
-Hey.

You haven't seen my other blue sock
in the last few days, have you?

No. What are you doing?

I have got to head home.
Overnight, probably.

That much laundry, huh?

No.

It's this thing with
Charlie and Kirsten.

It's getting kind of bad.

So you're going home?

What happened to "I moved out and moved
on"? What happened to that, huh?

What? Are you mad or something?

No. No, I-- I don't
know, you know.

I just-- You know, I think it's
kind of interesting that--

That you, like, sat
there yesterday

and you give me this whole thing
about cutting the cord and--

And not looking back
and all that crap.

Well, what are you
so pissed off about?

It's not like I'm
making you do anything.

Yeah, I know. I know that.

[exhaling]

I just--

I-- I thought that we
were like these, um--

These kindred spirits here,
you know, you and me.

I mean, I thought that
we agreed at some point

you just have got to move on. I
mean, isn't that what we said?

Yes.

Yes, so then why are
you going home?

God, what a hypocrite.

Yeah.

I guess so.

So listen--

[sighs]

Go home.

[sighs]

It's your dad's 60th birthday.

And, yeah, he's a jerk.

And, yeah, the letter
he sent you was stupid.

And Charlie can be a jerk.

And you want to tell them to
go to hell sometimes, but...

I don't know. When you get that
call that says, "I need you,"

you walk away from that,

and you're really alone.

[sighs]

Charlie?

[sniffling]

What is it?

Nothing.

Shh. Just go back to sleep.

Go back to sleep. Okay?

[sniffling]

[sniffling]

[sighs]

What are you doing here?

Claudia called me.

I've got more than I can
handle right now, Bay.

So if you're here with some free
advice or handy criticism--

-Charlie-- -I don't need
it and I don't want it.

And to be honest with you,
I really can't handle it.

It's nothing like that.

[sighs]

I'm just here.

Okay.

[knock on door]

[door opens]

Are you up?

I heard you moving around.

Check it out.

You know those flowers you
planted in the backyard?

What do you call these again?

Well, anyway, they-- They
bloomed, like a lot.

You want to come see?

Well, maybe in the morning.

You look really nice.

Really nice.

Anyway,

I was thinking about how it
felt when you left before,

when the wedding didn't happen.

We never stopped feeling like any second you
were just going to walk through the front door.

It never got to feeling
right, you not being here.

And Charlie.

Charlie was never
right without you.

And the thing is...

The thing is...

[sighs]

The thing is I don't think
he can lose you again.

Now, I know you shouldn't have
to worry about that, but I do.

I worry about what's going to
happen to him if you go away.

Because, you see, you
changed him, Kirsten.

All of a sudden
he's like this...

This man.

A-And I think, I really think that he needs
to show you that he's going to be there.

That whatever happens,
he can handle it.

And no one knows that
except maybe him and me...

...and you.

I think you know that,
don't you, Kirsten?

Deep down, don't you?

Yeah.

Hey, can your dad meet
us at the airport?

I'm not going home.

I'm staying. I changed
my ticket back.

-So your mom--
-She sounded pretty okay.

Yeah. I mean, there's not really
anything I can for her anyway.

Not really. Going home would sort
of be more for me than for them.

You know, I think you
should stay too.

Sarah.

No. I mean, I'm sure if you called
Charlie, he'd say the same thing.

Oh, I'm-- I'm sure he would.

No one's telling
me to come home.

Well, then stay.

You know what my mom said?

She said that I should think of this
as my first day away from home.

You know, what are you going to do? Run
back to us, any time anything happens?

You'll spend more on plane fare
than you will on tuition."

This is-- This is what it means
to go away to school, Julia.

So maybe I shouldn't
go so far away.

Really?

When your dad says
grow up, move away,

move on, whatever, I mean,
that's-- That's fine.

That's the way it should be.

But...

Charlie's not my dad,

and he's not even just my brother.
He's...

[chuckles]

I can't explain it.

Ask Bailey.

It's like something you
just feel or we feel.

We don't move on
from each other.

We-- We don't have the
freedom to do that.

And that's not a bad thing.
It's just the way it is,

and that'll probably
never change.

So...

...I'll see you.

You threaten me with your
lawyers and your court orders.

Charlie, it could
all be avoided.

Oh, give me a break.

Mom.

Dad.

We're right here, sweetheart.

[TV playing]

[Gene] Kirsten,

can I turn this off?

I'm watching too much TV, right?

Um, I should stop watching so much.
I'm sorry.

It's okay.

[sighs]

Kirsten,

we want to take you back
to Chicago with us.

We want to take you home.

You do?

Kirsten,

you have to tell
them what you want.

Do you want me to
take care of you?

Take care of me?

Yes.

Do you want to
stay here with me?

Okay.

Is that enough for you?

What more do you want to hear?

Sweetheart,

do you want your mother and
me to take care of you?

Of course.

-Aren't you?
-That's not--

You want us to do that?

Yes.

Then we'll take care of you.

That's not fair. Of course
she's going to say that.

Explain to her that
it's either-or.

Explain to her that
can't have both.

Charlie, what are you doing?

Kirsten, listen.

Kirsten, do you want
your mom and me

to go home today without you?

What?

No.

She doesn't understand--

Charlie, stop shouting.

Kirsten, listen, do you
want to stay here with me,

or do you want to go back
to Chicago with them?

-What? -You won't be with me
if they take care of you.

We won't be together anymore.

They want to take you away. Listen to me.
You have to choose. Kirsten--

I don't-- I don't--

[crying] Stop.

[sobbing]

Stop.

Okay.

Okay.

Shh. Hey, shh.

[sighs]

Our flight leaves at eight.

Oh, now, this-- This
is pretty, Kirsten.

I've not seen this before.

Is this new?

Why don't we put this on?

We don't want you catching
cold on the airplane.

[Gene] I found it.

[Ellie] Oh, good.

I was just telling Kirsten
how pretty this sweater is.

That's the exact same color
as my baby's baby blues.

All of this?

Yes, all of it.

[door closes]

They still packing?

Yeah.

-Charlie--
-Claudia, leave me alone.

I can't talk to you right now.

I know.

I mean...

I understand.

And I know that you're going to
be mad at me for a long time.

Maybe forever even.

And I want you to
know it's okay.

Claudia--

And if there's something

you want to take away
from me, like...

My violin or something or...

[crying] Whatever you want.

However you want to
punish me because...

[sobs]

I'm so sorry, Charlie.

Claud, okay.

Why is there a cab
in the driveway?

I thought you were
coming home next week.

What happened?

I talked to Claudia. She told me
what was going on. Is Kirsten...

That's their cab, isn't it?
They're taking her away?

Yeah, pretty much.

God.

Look, there's nothing you can do, Jule.
It's over.

So...

...you kind of came all
the way home for nothing.

Not for nothing.

[Gene] Ellie, you've got
the tickets, right?

[Ellie] Let me
just double-check.

[sighs]

Charlie.

There you are, baby.

All set. Do you have enough
cash for the cab driver?

I think.

Charlie.

I hope you don't think we don't
intend to keep you informed.

We will.

I'd like a minute
with her, please.

Well, the cab is outside.
We'd be cutting it--

Give him a minute, Gene.

We'll be right outside.

[chuckles]

I'm sorry.

Don't be.

It's okay, really.

Actually, it's
probably for the best.

I mean, this way you'll--

All you'll have to concentrate
on is getting better.

You won't have the five of us stomping
up and down these stairs all day long

and Owen screaming
and the dog barking.

And Bailey and I yelling at
each other all the time.

Hey, don't cry.

Please don't cry.

You're crying.

However long it takes, I'm
not going to go anywhere.

I love you.

You know that, don't you?

Don't you?

Could you just say it so
that I know you really know?

You love me.

[door closes]

[footsteps approaching]

Hey, we can't just sit here.
Maybe we should--

[sighs]

She's gone.

I'm sorry, man.

Me too, Charlie.

Yeah, well...

[chuckles]

You're back.

Yeah. I came back.

For this?

For you.

Oh.

Look, uh,

I'm just going to
go on upstairs.

[Julia] No.

Don't do that. You're just going to feel
alone upstairs, and you're not alone.

I mean, you are in a way,
but you're also not.

Why don't you come sit
with us for a while?

We won't even talk
if you don't want.

Just come sit.
