It's okay, Danny.

This is going to be a process.

How about we go further back? Okay?

How about we talk about...

you, when you were a little boy.

What about it?

Well, um,
can you tell me about the good times?

Can you tell me a happy memory?

"Fourteen, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19."

We struck out 19 times.

- And won.
- Amazing.

Swoboda hit two homers.

But the Cubs won too.

Stop worrying about the Cubs.
I'm telling you, Dan, this is our year.

I can hear you in there.
What part of "bedtime" wasn't clear?

You think that they have
channel nine in London?

I don't know.

London's pretty far.

- You cheer 'em on while I'm gone.
- They need it.

Cleon.

- Jones steps to the plate.
- Cleon.

- Jenkins deliver.
- Cleon.

A swing and a miss! He struck 'em out.

What?

Mets lose 'cause Danny Sullivan
didn't cheer loud enough.

I'll cheer, okay? I'll cheer.

Dad's picking me up pretty early.

I wish you didn't have to go.

I'll be saying the same thing to you
come Christmas.

You'll be just fine. Good night, Danny.

Good night, Adam.

You were twins, right?

Mm-hmm.

My mom used to say that
we were joined at the hip.

And it was true.

When was this?

We were in grade school, my brother and I.

It was summer, the tail end.
You know, when school's back.

And that was the first time
you two had been apart?

Yeah.

The thing is, is Adam was the one
who always had my back.

Come on in.

Oh.

Hey, man.

Hey, Bill.

Should we get some?

Sure. I mean, I guess.

I forgot my money. Do you have any on you?

Wow.

I get my allowance today
for the whole week.

We could get change.

I'll pay you back.

Just use ten cents, okay?

Don't worry.
Like I said, I'll pay you back.

Pick a hand, Danny.

Payback.

We tried to reach your mother,
but we keep getting no answer.

The machine's broken.
She says it's not worth fixing.

She works afternoons at the hospital.

And since your dad, well, he...

That's why Mr. Jones is here.

Mr. Jones is our guidance counselor
for elementary school.

Now, this is not an ideal way
to start off, hmm?

Now, clearly,
what Mr. Carter did was not acceptable,

but neither is throwing
a tantrum like that.

It's okay.

Do you have something you want to say,
Danny?

Can I go home?

Of course. Of course you can.
You and I can meet once a week.

Give this to your mother.

Don't slam the screen.

Sorry, Mom.

Happy Friday.

How was my big boy's
first full week of third grade?

Fine.

- Everything okay?
- Yeah, Mom.

Let me see that smile.

They're moving out
of the bed-and-breakfast.

Yeah, baby, it's closing up.

Who's gonna live there now?

I don't know. Ghosts, maybe.

Made you PB and J.

- Can't you stay home?
- Sorry, baby.

We only got my paychecks
putting food on the table.

And I gotta go get dressed for work.

Can't you not go tonight?

You know I gotta work, baby.

I don't like staying here alone.

You'll be perfectly fine. You miss Adam?

It's not fair.

Send me to Dad's.

You got the list of numbers.
You call me if you get scared.

Let me come with you.

You know you can't.

Just this one time.

Please. I'm begging you.

Please, Mom.

Please, Mom.

Okay.

- God. You choose.
- Good.

And I choose this.

Mmm, no. Too hot.

Hmm.

- This one.
- Mm-hmm.

You like it?

I spoke with your mom.

What? We... You spoke to my mom?

Is she okay? How i... How is she?

She's okay. Yeah, she's okay.

She says she wants to come see you.

- Really?
- Really.

- What was that?
- Nothing.

Thought you fell into a well.

Your shift starts at...
Oh, no. Uh-uh. No way.

Kid can't come in here. It's state law.

- Color.
- I could get shut down.

- But Mario said...
- I know. Let me handle it.

We've been over this. Candy, I'm serious.

Count to ten Mississippi,
and then put your song on.

You know which one, right?

One Mississippi, two Mississippi,
three Mississippi...

- Hey, it's a onetime thing.
- Every time is a onetime thing.

four Mississippi, five Mississippi,
six Mississippi, seven Mississippi,

I'm sorry that Pete turned out to be
the same asshole he always was.

eight Mississippi,
nine Mississippi, ten.

They come in here
and see a kid eating in the bar and...

It's double illegal if he's sitting at it.

Come on, Candy.

What? I shouldn't let the kid
play the jukebox now?

It's not my fault
you guys got the same favorite song.

You're a real
piece of work, you know that?

Takes one to know one.

- How you doing, Dan?
- Hi, Mario.

Get him a Coke and a burger or something.
Kid's thin as a reed.

- Last time. I promise.
- Sure.

Thanks, but that was...
Oh, watch your step, girl.

Sorry.

How y'all doing?

What can I get you folks?

Couple of pitchers of Bud, please, ma'am.

Hey, little man. What you got there?

Coloring book.

Dinosaurs. Ah, cool.

You ever get down to the, uh,
Museum of Natural History?

Yeah. Fourth floor, all dinosaurs.

Yeah. They have that...

that big mural with, uh,
the pterodactyls on it. Yours is better.

Excuse me. You're, uh...
You're sitting on my shirt.

- Yeah.
- Sorry.

Hey there. Hey. Hi.

Where y'all from?

- We're just having a beer. Mmm.
- That so?

Yeah.

Yeah. Look, man.
We don't want any trouble, okay?

That so?

Danny, come on over here please.

You best listen to your mama, son.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.
Nobody told you you could talk to him.

Nobody told me I had to ask permission.

You niggers is hardheaded.

I got you. Just breathe, okay?

Sometimes I think
the blood that night marked me.

What do you mean?

Well, from ancient Judaism
to Shakespeare, blood,

especially blood spilled in violence,
has magical powers.

It can ward off evil,
or it can even summon it.

Is that what you think?
That what happened to you is your fault?

Well, everything that came afterwards

couldn't possibly
just be a coincidence, could it?

Hey, baby.

Why aren't you asleep?

I can't stop thinking about the fight.

I'm sorry. You wanna sleep in my bed?

But just tonight, okay?

Come here.

The thing is,
is Dad going left us vulnerable.

My mom was perpetually disappointed.

- I mean, always thinking that...
- ...she wanted

someone to... ...fix things

or help m-make life turn out
the way she'd expected.

We needed a savior.

Hello.

Hey. I'm Marlin.
You know, like the fish.

Sit down. Go on.

We're good, Joe.

Seriously, I don't bite, um... Christopher.

Go on.

Coffee?

- For real?
- Yeah.

- Sure.
- Okay.

Uh, milk and sugar?

Nah, just sugar. Strong and black like me.

Okay.

So, I'm senior counselor here,

and I'm gonna manage your intake.

Now, the first thing I'm gonna tell you
is that you can trust me.

I know you think
that's bullshit, and that's okay.

Anything you managed to hide
and didn't surrender,

you can give it to me now.
No consequences.

They find it on you after you leave
this room, can't make any promises.

Nah, man. I ain't got nothing.

Okay.

Breaking and entering.

Yeah, man.
My grandma locked me out the house,

and I was supposed to be staying with her.

How you gonna arrest me
for breaking into my own house?

That's a good point.

Wow. Your birthday was yesterday?
You made juvie by a day.

Nah, I don't need no juvie none.

So here's the thing, Christopher Forbes.

You can try and sound all hard,
but it's rough in here.

And you look a lot younger than you are,
and you're too small.

And in here...
too small gets tested just like too big.

So you're gonna need a friend.
I can be that friend.

I can watch out for you.

Nah, man, I'm good.

Yeah. Whatever you say, kid.
Look, follow the rules.

Don't get... ...pulled into shit
you can avoid.

And you and me,
we'll make sure you do your six months

and get you outta here in,
hopefully, one piece.

- You got me?
- I got you.

Say, "I got you, Marlin."

- I got you, Marlin.
- Okay.

All done, Joe.

I got the ribs. Uh, give me a second.

Don't even worry about it.

Uh, you know what, Joe?
Sorry, one more thing I've gotta ask him.

Hold on one sec. Sorry.

What's up?

Ah.

Guy from my block taught me that.

And, um, that thing that you said about,
uh, watching out...

Not that I...
Not that I need it or anything.

- No. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah.
- Yeah.

We're good, Joe.

How you doing?

Passed this place
a hundred times, never came in.

Why today?

I guess I decided to,
um, take your sign as a sign.

- Can I get you something?
- Yeah, why not?

Um... I'll take a beer.
Miller, if you got it on tap.

- That we do.
- Thanks.

You care to join me?

Am I drinking alone?

You don't really know any
of that happened though. Not really.

No, not exactly. But there's a difference.

How so?

Well, there are things
that you know because you've lived them.

Things you know because you've read them.

But there are some things you know
because you've been told

the story a thousand times.

You know them as well as
if you lived them yourself.

Your mother, she told you?

They both did.

All the time when we were growing up.
They told Adam and me.

So, what happened then?

They talked and talked all night
until my mom's shift was over.

Whatever they said exactly,
I don't know.

But it's what people say
when they fall in love.

Mmm.

I guess my mom hoped
that Marlin would save us.

That he could be someone
who could keep the monsters out.

And I guess she thought
that Marlin was the guy for the job.

I mean, I guess we both did.

But?

But the truth is,
is that we didn't stand a chance.

The monsters were already there.

Boy, you get 'em!

You make breakfast every day?

- Good morning, sir.
- Look who's up early.

- Hi.
- Hey.

Come on, let's have some breakfast.

- Do you wanna sit down?
- No. Don't wanna be late.

- Adam's back today.
- Have a good day, young man.

Hey, your lunch box.

Mmm.

And don't forget your jacket.

Danny, wait up! Hold the doors!

- Hey.
- How was Dad's?

- It was okay.
- Mom had a guy over.

Dad asked about you a bunch of times.

He really misses you.

He's going to London again.

He said when he gets back,
he's gonna ask Mom if he can come over.

She's only gonna say no.

Yeah, but you know Dad, he'll keep asking.

I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't just
come over and kidnap you.

- I wish.
- Danny, heard you got beat up by a girl.

Hear you choked on your own cock.

I really miss him.

Like I said,
Adam always had my back, you know?

My dad travels a lot,

which is why we don't really
get to see him.

And he's...
His company's opening an office in London.

He's gonna have
an apartment there now.

That's why he got me this.

So when my dad's work
is settled at the travel agency,

we're gonna go visit
all the places in the book.

Like it says on the cover, A to Z.

Thank you, Danny. That was very good.

Teacher's pet.

That's enough.

Sarah. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you. Thank you.

Thank you.

Dan, could you hold back for a minute?

Thank you.

Thank you so very much.

Thank you.

Come on.

Take a load off.

You're a sweet kid, Danny.

Sensitive... I can tell that.

Wouldn't you say that's true?

I guess. I don't know.

I think you are.

I think you feel things deeply.
Very deeply.

Your dad's not around, huh, Dan?
And your mom, she works a lot.

Two jobs.
Seems to me like you need a friend.

Someone to talk to.
Someone that thinks you're special.

I see you, Dan.

I think you're special.
You don't have to feel so alone.

I don't wanna hurt you, son.
I wanna help you.

If something's bothering you,

you promise...

What's going on here exactly?

Just talking.

Boy's mom asked me to pick him up.

Let's go, Dan.

He seemed just like
what the doctor ordered.

It's funny, right?

Not really, no.

No, I guess not.

What'd you say?

They need to mow their grass,
don't you think?

Do you mow lawns?

No? You want to?

Want me to carry that? Okay.

Come on.

Up you go.

I got worried when you didn't come out.

Okay.

Okay, here we go.

All right.

You okay, Dan?

- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah?

What were you doing back there?

Nothing.

Did he touch you?

You can tell me.

So...
I'm thinking of proposing to your mom.

- Really?
- Yeah.

I think she'd like that.

Don't you think? Yeah?

Truth is she's having trouble
making ends meet.

She's having trouble,
what with both jobs.

Real truth is,

I'm not even sure
how she could keep you, you know?

I'd be willing to help her out.

But...
we gotta make a pact.

You know, like a secret.

Think we can do that?

- Sure.
- Yeah?

Can I stop now?

It's...

It's really important
that you try to continue.

And we can stop at any time.

But it's important that you-you try.

We're gonna do something.

And you're-you're gonna like it.

And it's gonna be our secret.

Come on.

Come on.

Don't.

Come on. Over here.

I just wanna show you something. Come on.

Come on.

Hey, you don't wanna
upset your mom, do ya?

I want you to look at me.

Hey, none of that.

Be a good boy.

Now, come on. I wanna...
Just want to show you something.

Come on.

I wanna see what's in the barn.
Take me instead. I won't tell Mom.

None of that bullshit!

It's okay, Dan.

Okay, come on.

How long after
did he marry your mom?

Was a few months. That winter.

And he kept it up?

Why stop?

And your mom?

She never knew.

And it was always Adam?

Every time.

He was my savior.

So what happened to him?

How did he die?

What has any of this
got to do with Ariana?

I thought that we were here to talk
about Ariana and Rockefeller Center.
