SAILING

AND MY MOTHER SAID

THAT MY CHILDREN WOULD BE
BORN WITH HOOVED FEET

AND FORKED TAILS.

SHE WAS WRONG.

GOD DIDN'T PUNISH ME,
NOT WITH YOU.

YOU ARE PERFECT.

YOU HAVE TO BELIEVE IT,
NO MATTER WHAT ANYONE SAYS.

THAT LOVE DOESN'T ALWAYS COME
WHEN YOU WANT IT.

SOMETIMES IT JUST HAPPENS,
AGAINST YOUR WILL.

I DON'T CARE WHAT YOU DID, MOM,
OR DO.

I'LL ALWAYS LOVE YOU.

WHY DID GRANDMOTHER

WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO TELL
YOUR FATHER ABOUT US?

WHEN DO WE GET TO LEAVE?

MY FATHER HAS JUST
FINALLY ACCEPTED ME BACK.

THEN WHY CAN'T HE ACCEPT US?

ARE WE SO TERRIBLE,
OR STUPID, OR UGLY,

THAT HE WOULDN'T WANT TO MEET
HIS OWN GRANDCHILDREN?

I CAN'T.

I CAN'T TELL HIM
ABOUT YOU, EVER.

MY FATHER FORGAVE ME
ON ONE CONDITION...

THAT I DIDN'T HAVE ANY CHILDREN
WITH YOUR FATHER.

YOU KNOW WHAT?

I'LL CANCEL
MY MOVIE DATE,

AND I'LL STAY HERE
WITH YOU AND THE TWINS.

IT'S OKAY, MOM.

YOU GO.

WE'LL BE FINE HERE.

HE COULD GO
ANY DAY NOW.

THAT'S HOW
HEART DISEASE WORKS.

A BLOOD CLOT
COULD BREAK FREE

AND FIND ITS WAY
TO HIS LUNGS OR HEART,

SNUFF HIM OUT

[GASPS] LET GO!

CATHY, GO TO THE ATTIC!

NO! GIVE ME THAT!

COME BACK HERE!
COME BACK HERE!

CARRIE, PLEASE!

[CARRIE GASPING]

CATHY!

[BANGS DOOR SHUT]

WHY DID YOU DO THAT?

DON'T CLOSE THE DOOR.

I NEED FOR THE DOOR
TO BE OPEN!

NO. NOT THE DOOR.

DON'T TURN OFF
THE LIGHT.

OPEN THE DOOR!
TURN ON THE LIGHT!

I NEED THE DOOR
TO BE OPEN!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

NO! NO! OPEN THE DOOR!

[WEEPING] NO!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

LIKE YOU SAID,

GOD SEES EVERYTHING.

HE'LL PUNISH YOU
FOR WHAT YOU DID TO US.

TO CORY.

IT WASN'T ME!

IT WAS YOUR MOTHER
WHO POISONED YOU, NOT ME!

IT DOESN'T
MATTER ANYMORE.

[GRANDMOTHER SOBBING]

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

DON'T GO!

DON'T LEAVE ME!

HELP! HELP!

HELP!

WE NEVER HAVE TO SEE
THAT PLACE AGAIN, CATH.

IT'S ALL OVER.

[CATHY]: AND FOR THE FIRST TIME
IN A LONG TIME,

WE FELT ALIVE,

FREE.

WE HAD EVERYTHING AHEAD OF US.

BUT SOMEDAY,
WE'D SEE MOM AGAIN.

AND WE'D LOOK HER
STRAIGHT IN THE EYE,

THE CHILDREN SHE ONCE LOVED,

AND ALL OUR SHAME
AND HOPELESSNESS

WOULD BECOME HERS.
