You're too rough on my publicist.

You know, she doesn't need to hear it from you and from me.

She gets you interviews in markets

the film's not even being released in.

It's a waste of everyone's time.

And you're not my manager.

So don't treat me like one.

Come on, I don't need to come to this shit.

Dad used to go with me.

Oh!

Are you okay?

Hmm.

Aah!

Avery?

You know where you are?

San...

San Francisco?

There's nothing in the medicine cabinet,

so don't bother.

It's okay.

You come out when you want.

Mornin'.

Morning. He's in the kitchen.

- Thank you. - For what?

Clean sheets?

- I'd like to go home now. - Okay. To accomplish what?

You know, I can only do like four miles now.

It's embarrassing.

You know it's illegal, locking me up there.

Someone had to.

Hey, Ryan, you know what cirrhosis is?

No?

All right,

you don't want to eat, let's get to work.

Dan.

Avery, Dan.

How long you been cutting it for?

About a year.

Fired the director six months ago.

I can't seem to find it.

You can find it.

There are better editors than me.

Yeah, I don't want better.

I want you.

When was the last time you felt this clean?

When was the last time you saw your kid?

Year and a half?

You are running out of people who would do this for you.

I'm giving you work.

Say thank you.

How much does it pay?

There are work drives, backups, and then triple backups

over in storage in Brisbane.

- But as far as what was shot? - Yeah, you've seen it.

You like me because you need me.

I need you because I love you.

I think that the beat before

is the physical need for somebody,

um, you know, the want for somebody else,

and ultimately, that gets washed away.

- It feels very honest. - Thank you.

That's great. Thank you.

We fought really hard to make it feel like you were there.

It... It was really important for us

to have the audience understand

the... the stakes for this woman,

to empathize, to breathe her in.

It was bit of a burden for me, if I may say so,

being the person who... who got to play

this wonderful woman.

Um, but, uh, yeah, I think it -

I think it started me thinking that it...

it's just really important for me

to surround myself with... with friends

and... and family maybe,

uh, people who you can trust.

- You have siblings? - I do.

I have... I have an older brother.

He's an editor for commercials and... and film.

You know that I lie for a living, as an actress

so it's really nice to be surrounded

by, uh, people, family, a brother

who... who really makes sure that I stay grounded

and a husband who does the same.

And I just hope that, uh,

that I can... that I do repay them for that.

- That's great. - Thank you so much.

Hi.

Can we get some menus?

Come to this place a lot?

When did you get back?

About a week ago.

I was going to call sooner, but...

So, what's the job, Avery?

Recutting "Americana."

Calib wants to show it to some folks

who didn't buy the last one.

Play off her success.

- And Calib brought you back? - Yeah, he needed a good editor.

How's the drinking?

Stop it.

I'm fine, pal.

He's sorry. I'm sorry.

- I'm not sorry. - It was an honest question.

It's fine. I'm fine.

You guys know what you want?

Yeah. Do you?

God knows, you think you can,

and then turn your back

on your friends and your family

for something you could never have.

I never believed in "Americana," Vernon.

And I never believed in you.

You did.

You wouldn't be here if you didn't.

If they're all gone, we should leave.

Stay for a second.

For an hour or two.

We should rest.

I doubt they'll come back.

Charlie...

...you can't have it all.

You like me because you need me.

I need you because I love you.

It's addictive. It's addictive,

moving little pieces around, making them fit.

Keeps me busy.

If you can stay sober in a bar, you can stay sober anywhere.

How's the kid?

Jack? Uh, I think he's good.

You gonna try to go see him?

Call Claire, say,

"Hey, let's pretend I wasn't a drunk shithead.

Let me take Jack to a matinee?"

I don't know, Josh.

Avery, you're so close,

but you've got to admit what you did wrong

and get over it.

It doesn't have to be in a courtroom,

but you've got to get over it.

Yeah.

I'm not talking about the program.

I'm talking about you getting out again.

being a human being.

I know.

I'm working on it.

You're the only one that's still letting it get to him.

Hello?

Wrong number.

- Hello? - Something happen to you?

Mom not teach you manners,

or you just don't think too hard?

- All right, bye. - Does it not hit you

in the gut every day like it does for me?

Pretty face.

No need to think about it.

I thought, for a while,

you didn't feel it because he was so small.

Maybe you just didn't feel

yourself taking the life out of him.

Maybe that's why you didn't stop.

So when you hit him, I'm asking you if you felt it.

You killed my best friend.

How does that feel?

How does that feel when you sleep?

I guess it doesn't matter.

I'm gonna see him soon. I'm gonna see Henry.

And my family, they're gonna be just fine.

You know why?

'Cause it's going to do great now.

And when it does,

you're gonna feel that red-hot heat in you.

And I hope it runs out your ass, all over the floor.

See you soon.

- A great actress. - And a great actress can do

with a few bucks and a few favors.

With those things, I can go back

into the office of those fucking tight-ass investors,

and I can say...

And what's the name of the other guy?

- Herman something. - Thank you. Herman something.

I can go to the office of Herman something,

and I will say, "Herman, my man, I created jobs,

a sustainable industry in this town,

and I have a movie that is opening wide."

And after that, I'll probably throw a glass of wine

in the banker's face.

Oh, by the way, are we done with dessert?

Are we getting coffee, or are we just going to take a walk?

- I just got another drink. - Okay.

And then we'll go for a walk.

- Do we have a driver? - Oh, I sent our driver home.

I guess we're sleeping here tonight, gentlemen.

Oh, no.

Will you hold this for me, please?

Thank you.

Oh!

Have you got the number for Kate's driver?

- Kate sent him home. - You know, I'm good to drive.

- Do you have the number? - Why would I have it?

- Katie? - Why would I have it?

All right.

Thanks for the help, man.

You know,

there's a general sick mentality of the locals

when it's warm outside and people expect an earthquake.

- Mm-hmm. - Yeah, it's crazy...

- Avery! - ...that you get nervous

every time it warms up a little.

I came to a wedding here a couple months ago.

Horrible couple. My God.

Oh! It's so beautiful!

Kate, come on. Let's go.

Look at these angels!!

It's like a beehive, honeycomb thing.

I should have taken ballet.

Hey.

- Seriously, let's go. - What?

Hey! Hey! Kate! Kate!

It's going to do great now.

You've been drinking?

No.

I thought about your pop on the way over here.

The police told me that they got the name

of the guy that, uh...

They... They, uh, found it

in his wallet and, uh...

What?

The guy's name is Mark Taylor.

Blowback is what they told me.

From Sir Francis Drake Boulevard.

He was the boy's cousin.

Do you think he could have been the one who called you?

Yeah.

All right.

- I know. - She didn't do anything.

I know.

- I drove us home. - We went to bed.

I know.

Avery...

I know that there's a pin.

And it's really tiny.

And you're balanced on the tip of it...

and you could fall off in any direction.

People are gonna blame you.

You're going to see it in their eyes.

And when you do...

I need you to remember

that this guy was crazy...

that his resentment and his rage

had nothing to do with you.

It's no one's fault but his...

this brutal thing.

Now...

I need you to sign your name five times.

Okay?

Here, here, here, here, here.

All right?

That discussion we had about wages...

did you sign anything?

No.

Well, take the points...

because it'll sell now.

To be honest with you,

I'm not really thinking about the film.

Yeah.

Well, to be honest with you, I don't know

when you'll be sober enough again to pick up a phone.

- I care about her! - This is my house!

- This is for her! - Josh, be quiet for a second.

No, you think you're

on my intelligence.

I am begging you.

You don't deserve this.

You're the smart guy, Josh.

I am being smart by getting rid of this right now.

- You're not being smart. - Right now! Right now!

- You want me to put it down? - Yes, I do.

- I'll put it down. - Look...

- You want it down? - It's very easy, Calib!

Please, put it on the table, and let's talk.

Look, is it something to do with Avery?

No, it's not! It has nothing to do with fucking Avery!

It has to do with you!

- I don't know what you're doing. - What is this worth now?

To you, Calib? What is this worth?

- P-Please. - What's it fucking worth?!

- Stop shouting at me! - Listen, please!

Put it down and let's talk. All right?

How you doing buddy?

We should talk sometime.

It's going to do great now.

It's fine. It's just a backup.

There is so much money tied up in this film.

It's sand castles, children playing with toys,

making this entire... thing

that doesn't do anything.

It just gets washed away after a few years.

He just lost his wife...

and you just lost your sister.

But you plug that thing in down there...

...she's right there.

That is miraculous, I think.

I wonder if you can tell me something.

Of course.

What's going to happen first,

you selling this film or us putting her in the ground?

Honey.

I don't want to talk about my sister.

- And I know it's been a while... - Avery.

...but right now

I'm just going to ask you if I can borrow the car.

Just the car.

Please.

Okay. Why?

Because it's a long walk to Marin.

Okay.

Come on.

I can drive.

Can you?

I'll drive.

If I can, at some point, I would like to see Jack...

...to explain myself.

You call me, and we'll talk about it.

I'd like that.

And it would be okay.

I haven't had a drink since before Kate.

Believe me, I walked in

with every intention of burning that place down.

You angry at me?

No.

Good. I'm glad.

You know, Calib rides a nice little line

between being holier-than-thou

and completely emotionally ignorant.

Makes him a hell of a producer.

I met that guy...

Mark Taylor...

just outside the courthouse last... January.

He had a way of speaking.

Heard he worked at a... a textile plant in Fairfax.

What do you think he meant by, "It's going to do great now"?

Oh, come on.

You do.

You've been around these people long enough.

I mean, I haven't been in too many meetings.

I don't a lot about the business,

except for whatever Kate told me,

but even I knew what he meant.

So do you.

Now, what did he mean?

Press.

"Who wants to see that indie with, uh, what's-her-name...

the girl that was in that thing?"

"Who wants to see a movie with, uh, that girl who was... pop?"

I do.

So?

So, what the hell does a textile worker from Fairfax

care about sales projections?

You guys want some breakfast?

- I had breakfast. - How about some lunch?

I had this moment after I knew she died...

and I knew who Mark Taylor was.

I knew I recognized him.

I couldn't stop thinking about what he said.

And I... I thought of this script

that Kate had gotten

like, I don't know, probably a year ago,

right after, like, "Dreamer's Fog,"

right when she was really beginning to blow up,

get famous...

right after your trial...

when you left town to go fill yourself with scotch.

It was about, uh,

the air-raid siren in San Francisco.

You know?

- The Tuesday Siren. - Right. Exactly.

They test that air-raid siren every Tuesday at noon.

Every Tuesday at noon, the siren comes on

and this voice... this voice says,

"This is a test of the emergency broadcast system."

And so this movie... this movie is...

this movie is about these guys...

they're, like, terrorists or something...

this group of terrorists who decide

that they're going to bomb San Francisco...

...on a Tuesday...

at noon.

Right?

While the test siren is going off.

I mean, it's good, right?

I mean, they decide to do it when everybody thinks, "Oh,

this is just, you know, this is a test.

We hear this shit every Tuesday."

Then, the bomb drops, the siren comes on,

everybody just goes about their business.

That's the whole story?

Yeah.

Yeah, that was the movie.

And, uh, Kate would have played the... the nurse

or the doctor or, you know,

whoever it was that saves all the people in the movie.

- But everyone can hear the bomb? - Right, everyone hears the bomb,

but the thing is, is that in the movie,

they hear it and they go, "Oh, what's that?

Oh. Oh, that's nothing. We hear that every Tuesday."

See?

The plan was to cover something bigger

with expectation of the public. Right.

To cover the unexpected with the expected.

Right.

So, I'm sitting in the ambulance,

next to my wife, who I knew was dead.

And... And I suddenly think,

"That story...

That story really got it right."

You would expect that the family of a dead child

would be upset at the family they thought killed that child,

that Mark Taylor would be mad... at you...

that he would want some sort of a...

balance, revenge.

You would expect that.

Like the siren...

you'd expect it.

And it would be a great time to drop a bomb.

- What do you need... - right now... from me?

I need you to stop listening to the siren.

- I'll take a share... - of the film.

You mean points.

"Shares" is a corporation. This is a partnership.

You know what I mean.

Okay.

Did you figure I would?

I think he thinks that you're taking advantage.

- Who's that? - Josh does, of Kate's...

And that it might be benefiting the film.

What do you think?

Did you know him?

Taylor?

Calib.

Hey, buddy. How are you?

Listen, you got to call me Daddy, all right?

Now, Daddy has to work, so go there.

- Calib, can you... - Yeah, sure.

- Ryan! - Come get some food, Buggy.

Avery, you too.

You sleeping?

I've been having a lot of trouble.

So, you didn't know him?

Who's that?

- Taylor? - Mm-hmm.

You didn't recognize him that night?

I don't know.

I... I made a statement to the police.

I realized there were things I didn't remember.

But what I do remember,

honestly, I-I would like to forget,

if possible.

Avery, um, when I was working

on trying to keep the business going...

and I'm... I'm not comparing...

but I went to see this guy.

Um, he's a friend of a friend down on Mason.

He's a... like a specialist, right?

Um, and I'm not saying you got to see this guy,

but maybe you should see a trauma therapist...

deal with the anger,

maybe gain a certain amount of self-control.

Well, I already have a doctor in Lagunitas.

I know, but if you want to nip it in the bud.

Hey, hey, come on, don't do that.

Oh, I think I deserve it.

You're gonna tell me what I can and can't do, Anne?

- We're done doing her favors. - What does that mean?

Hey, what does that mean?

It means your sister asked my husband

if he could sober you up and give you a job,

which, to me, is a little like

asking, "Can you hold your breath for three weeks?"

We're all shaken.

I just think it's time you get a place

if you're going to stay in the city.

Hey, Ry.

Wake up, buddy.

Do I have school?

No, you don't have school.

I need you to tell me where you learned that song...

the one you sang last night.

- At the church. - What church?

Annnnnd...

Mrs. Taylor?

Mrs. Taylor?

Nora?

It's all right.

- Out. - I know.

25 yards, and you aren't allowed in the building.

Out.

I'm not going anywhere.

What do you want?

- Are you drunk? - No.

What do you want?

There's a producer named Calib Andrews.

I work with him, and my sister worked with him.

He's been here.

Why did he come here?

I want you to know that whatever was started

with your son's death,

whatever blame your nephew put on me...

we should stop.

There's no bad children.

They don't start out that way.

I'm not preaching.

I just read that in a parenting book.

I got him a job.

I-I tried with my nephew.

I...

I didn't try hard enough, maybe.

You were there when he shot her.

I'm sorry for your loss.

I don't blame you for anything.

No, I bet you're blaming yourself

for all the people paying for your mistakes.

Mr. Andrews worshipped here.

He and his family worshipped here.

We're 30 miles outside the city.

He's a compassionate man.

- Is he? - Very.

- To who? - Don't be glib.

- To your nephew? - To my family.

What does he want from your family?

- It's fine, Terri. - Are you sure?

I'm sure, honey. It's fine.

That's all, really.

You need to go.

Hmm.

Oh.

Get another one?

Hey.

...T...

...S... T...

...P... Q...

...G... H...

I...

It's your contention

that because of a conversation...

about what, we don't know...

a conversation between Calib and her

and the nephew maybe,

that he put an idea in the nephew's head?

And for what?

To sell a movie?

And this while you're wasted...

wasted beyond... and it's one p.m.

and I can fucking smell it on you!

Avery, you were so lucky to have your sister.

It's amazingly rare to have a person like her...

as extraordinary as... as public

and to really know her.

She stood up for you.

And I know that you want to stand up for her.

Don't.

It's like you're trying to prove

that she's not guilty of something.

But it is feasting on you, boy.

All right.

So, you'll stay with us tonight.

And I don't need to tell you what you can't do.

We fought really hard to make it feel like you were there.

It was extremely important for us

to have the audience understand the stakes for this woman,

to empathize and breathe her in.

It, uh, was a burden on my part,

if I may say so,

as, uh, as the person who was... who was playing her

and trying to bring all that, all those colors to life.

I do. I do. I have an older brother.

He's here somewhere, lurking in the background.

Oh!

It's really important for me to be surrounded by... by family

who understand what it is that I'm trying to do with my life.

What was that?

I don't know.

Pull over.

Katie, pull over.

The difficulties that come with that...

you know, the little inconsequential things...

you know that...

You know that I lie for a living as an actress,

so it's extremely important for me

to be surrounded by... by family

and... and a brother who help... ground me.

Yeah, you have to go.

Can he see me?

No.

But he knows I'm here.

He knows I can handle you.

I don't know, I... just feel like I'm losing my mind, Claire.

Yeah, it's good that I left.

Okay.

I sleep outside sometimes in the fall up there...

and I do that so that I, um,

I get too cold to get up at night,

grab a bottle of something.

But sometimes I wake up more or less straight.

Every time, I forget how easy it is to hate myself.

Like, I feel more like me with...

s-something in here,

you know, like... like I-I'm intended

to have something else in me.

But it takes not drinking for a few hours...

to remember that.

That's - Tat's the only reason I wasn't always.

To remind myself that I needed it.

Drinking is the only thing I've ever really been good at.

And when I don't have it...

I miss it.

I miss it more than I miss you...

more than I miss Katie...

...more than I miss my son.

And I should hate myself for that.

I need a place to stay tonight...

just a place to sober up.

Please don't, okay?

I love you, Claire.

Good night.

Hello?

I-I saw you at the church.

Who is this?

I wanted to meet you, make sure you were...

You don't seem like such a bad guy.

And you should know about him because he wasn't that bad.

He just had trouble. You know?

I don't know why he did a lot of things.

He was mad at you and your sister

because he was mad at everybody.

He was mad that his aunt gave up so easy fighting for Henry.

Yeah.

You didn't do it though, right?

Do what?

Run him over and keep driving?

No.

You couldn't have.

You'd have to be... You'd have to be

a very hurt person to look someone in the eye

and lie about something that important.

He said we'd be rich if he killed her.

What?

He said the movie would do better if he killed her.

How would he get rich?

Can I hug you?

Yes.

We're both good people, you know...

With bad things happening around us.

You gonna tell me what's going on?

It's called a contingent compensation offer.

It's a contract.

The date.

Look at the date.

Signed four weeks before she was killed.

Calib Andrews paid in shares of the film...

to have my sister killed.

The movie may have done well without it,

but he kills her,

the movie comes out a few weeks from now,

does well, makes money.

The better it does,

the more money the Taylors make.

It's an incentive.

- What are you doing? - Where's Calib?

He's running.

What are you doing?

So, what do you want to do with these?

Hold on to them.

Hold on to them for a minute.

Then I'll format them, wipe them clean.

Hey! Hey!!

What you doin', buddy?

For the Taylor family.

Why did they have 30% of the film?

He had a share!

He killed her over this!

You silver-spoon fuck, he fucking killed her over this!

No, no, he killed her because

you ran over that child and kept driving.

- Nope. - Of course he did.

- No. - Your sister paid for you,

I paid for the lawsuit,

we settled with the family so we could move on.

How could you not see that's what this is?

It's a settlement!

It's a settlement.

How could I possibly know what that guy was going to do?

Come on, think about it.

Did that cross your mind?

I'm going home.

Your stuff will be on the curb. Sober up, please.

- It's still your fault. - Oh, fuck you!

Just say "thank you," Avery. Huh?

For your sister's help, for my help.

- I didn't want it. - She wanted it!

- And I thanked her for it! - Yeah, by leaving!

You're a child.

You hear me? You're a child.

You want to blame me, fine,

but I was trying to fix your fuckup

while you were drinking yourself to death.

You throw tantrums,

and you fuck up other people's lives.

Thanks a lot.

Gonna tell me what he said?

I wasn't driving.

She was driving, I wasn't driving.

I kept thinking about this, the whole way up here.

I don't know if Kate ever told you,

but, um, before my dad died, there was a few years

where he was traveling for work.

He was going around selling little bits of land

to people who probably couldn't afford it,

but he used to bring us with him sometimes for company.

And this one time, we go out with him.

I'm like 9, and Kate's 5.

And we're going and we're going and we get off the highway,

and we go some more.

And somehow we end up at this graveyard.

And I'm walking through the graveyard,

messing around...

and I find... these fresh graves.

It was three kids and a mom...

all lined up.

And there's a spot for the dad.

Had his name...

but no date on the gravestone.

But he was lined up with them.

And we keep going on,

and I just keep thinking about this mom and these kids

and how they probably died in a car accident

or from some disease there's no cure for.

And we're moving from house to house,

and we get to this farm.

And my dad goes up to talk to the guy.

And while he's talking to the guy at the door,

I look over at the mailbox..

...and it's the same name... from the graves.

It was his wife and his kids... all lined up there.

And I'm 9, but I knew. You know?

And I just kept thinking... how I knew

not only that this man had lost his entire family,

just in the last weeks or couple days...

...but I also knew where he was gonna be buried...

...where he was going when he died.

And it was terrifying...

to know so much about this man...

and how sad he was...

...and to see him try to smile.

I watched my dad die...

I lost my sister...

...and little boy.

I know where I'm gonna end up.

And I've tried to smile.

Have you seen Jack?

I can't.

I can't stay good long enough.

And have you tried?

To see him? Yeah, of course.

To stay good.

No.

You should start with that.

Excuse me?

Hi. Are you waiting for somebody?

- I'm waiting for Jack Wells. - I'm his dad.

If they're all gone, we should leave.

Stay for a second.

For an hour or two.

We should rest.

I doubt they'll come back.

- Charlie... - you can't have it all.

You think you can.

God knows, you think you can,

and then you turn your back on your friends and your family

for something you could never have.

I never believed in "Americana," Vernon.

- And I never believed in you. - You did.

You wouldn't be here if you didn't.

You like me because you need me.
