[suspenseful music]

[gasping]

[yells]

She said it would be the
best summer ever, and it was.

I wanted it to last for
the rest of our lives.

As much as I hate what she did
to me, I will always love her.

[suspenseful music]

Hi, Vivian, hi!

MAN: Good morning, Mrs. Conrad.

Hi, Brent.

Hi.

Hi, Felicia.

[whistle blowing]

[cheering]

Keep it going.

There you go.

There you go.

Keep going.

You can do it, Lauren!

Bring it in, sweetheart.

Yes, honey!

[whistle blowing]

[cheering]

ANNOUNCER: The winner in
the junior girls' freestyle

is Lauren Conrad.

Congratulations!

Did you see my mom?

Did you see me win?

Of course, I did, darling.

And that's the first
medal of the summer.

Come on, Lauren.

Let's look at your medal.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

[chatter]

You must be very proud
of your swimmers, today.

You really whipped
them into shape.

It's so early in the summer.

Thanks, Mrs. Conrad.

Matt, we've known
each other for years.

Don't you think it's
time you call me Vivian?

OK, sure.

ANNOUNCER: Your
attention, please.

Next Wednesday the 14th--

Hey, how about a
picture of the winner?

Matt, we need the coach, too.

Come on, guys, smile.

Say, Matt, we're going
to throw some steaks

on the grill tonight.

One more wouldn't
be any trouble.

Well, I-- I don't know.

LAUREN: Come on, Matt.

Please, come?

OK, sure, yeah,
sounds like fun.

Yay!

Good.

Justin will be glad, too.

We have so much to catch up on.

Thank you, Mrs.--

Vivian.

Dinner is at 7:30.

OK.

So are you off the clock yet?

Uh, n-- no, I still
got to punch out.

Are you coming to the party
at the Winstead's this weekend?

Of course, he's coming.

My man, Matt, would
never miss a big blowout.

Would you, Matt?

[sighs] Actually, I got
some stuff I need to do.

Oh, well, I hope
that you can make it.

Uh, I think we'd have
a pretty good time.

Bye, Matt.

I'll see you, Alec.

You bet.

What is the matter?

Diane's really hot for you.

What do you need?

A tour guide?

An engraved invitation?

A note from your mother?

Is that all you
think about is sex?

Yeah.

Look, face it, man.

Sooner or later, you've
got to do it with somebody.

Well, maybe that
someone hasn't come along.

Look, Diane is a sure thing!

Go for it!

Look, when it
happens, it'll happen.

Yeah, but at the
rate you're going,

you'll probably collect
Social Security first.

Come on.

[doorbell ringing]

Oh, I'll get it, Mrs. Conrad.

No, no, I'll get it, Maggie.

You finish the salad.

Hi.

Hi.

Um, I hope I'm not too early.

No, not at all.

Come in.

Would you like a drink?

Yeah, yeah, a
beer would be great.

Lauren's going to be
so excited you're here.

She's right outside.

Looks like you survived
your freshman year.

How are your grades?

Uh, Dean's list
both semesters.

Congratulations.

I do hope, though,
that you managed to do

something more than study.

Uh, not really.

It's what summer
vacations are for.

Are you still diving?

Um, not as much as I used
to when I was competing.

The pool at school is
really always crowded.

Hey, Matt.

Hey, squirt.

VIVIAN CONRAD: Lauren
has not taken off

that medal since we got home.

Wow!

LAUREN: Do you like it?

MATT TEMPLETON:
Yeah, that's great.

I got a new video game.

Do you want to go
upstairs and play it?

Oh, maybe some other
time, sweetheart.

But right now, Maggie could
use your help in the kitchen.

OK.

All right, I'll see
you later, squirt, OK?

See you later, Matt.

I think somebody's
got a crush on you.

[chuckles awkwardly]
She's a great kid.

I don't know where Justin is.

He was supposed to
be home an hour ago.

Matt, how do you feel
about starting the fire?

No problem.

OK.

So how late does Mr.
Conrad usually work?

Depends.

I stopped trying to keep
up with Justin's schedules.

[door closing]

Speak of the devil.

Well, company for dinner.

Any calls?

No.

Uh.

Nice to see you, Matt.
How is school?

- It was great, Mr. Conrad.
- Good.

- Daddy!
- Uh-huh.

Look what I won!

Whoa!

Look at that thing!

Congratulations, sweetie!

Look, I'm sorry I wasn't there.

That's OK, dad.

No, no, I'll be
there next time.

I promise.

LAUREN: Really?

JUSTIN CONRAD: Really.

VIVIAN CONRAD: Of
course, he will.

Matt, would you
excuse me a minute?

I'm going to go get out
of this suit, all right?

Sure, I'm in no hurry, sir.

Here, come on.

Grab that.

Yeah, take your time.

JUSTIN CONRAD: All right.

[music playing]

So have you thought
about what you

want to do after you graduate?

No, sir, not really.

Mm.

Justin, maybe Matt would like
to learn about your securities

business while he's home.

Yeah, good idea.

Would that interest you, Matt?

Yeah, that would be great,
but I know how busy you are.

No, I'm sure we can
work something out.

[phone ringing]

Excuse me.

Yeah.

Yeah, hold on.

This is Bailey from the office.

This could take a while.

Why don't you two
finish without me?

Sorry.

Yeah.

Well, what do they counter with?

You're kidding.

No, that's unacceptable from
our standpoint, you know that.

When did they say
they'd call again?

Who?

Yamasura?

But don't you have a
connection inside his office?

Are you listening to me?

Oh, no, I can't
do it on Thursday.

I-- I have a lesson to go to.

Well, then change--

VIVIAN CONRAD: It's been
very nice having you

here this evening, Matt.

[sensual music]

Bill, you're not listening.

Hey, that's your job,
not mine, all right?

Bill, I want you
to go talk to him.

I'll be by tomorrow.

Thanks.

Look, I think I should go.

JUSTIN CONRAD: I want this
cleared up by lunch tomorrow.

Thanks for a
really nice evening.

JUSTIN CONRAD: I said lunchtime.

Would you tell Mr.
Conrad I said goodbye?

[chuckles]

[children chattering]

I'll get the rest of
my bags out of the car.

What-- what is he doing here?

Your father decided it's
time for him to come back home.

[scoffs] Mom, you've
got to be kidding?

Matt, he's been sober
for six months now.

Says who?

Is that what he told you?

Mom, I can't believe
you're giving in to him

after what he did to you.

He can't afford to
rent his own apartment

and pay the mortgage
on this house anymore.

Well, he should have thought
about that before he moved out.

Hi, Matt.

Son, I want to put
the past behind us.

I'm sure you do.

What did you say?

Nothing.

No, what did you say?

Nothing.

Look, whether you like it
or not, I'm moving back in.

I don't need your permission.

ANNOUNCER: Mr. Green and party
to the first tee, please.

Mr. Green and party
to the first tee.

And when you're done
with those towels,

my car could use a wash and wax.

Don't hold your breath.

A little testy.

[sighs] Yeah.

Yeah, I'm sorry.

My old man moved back in.

Oh, that's a drag.

Yeah, I knew he
couldn't leave us alone.

I-- I knew he'd worm
his way back in somehow.

You never know, man.

Maybe he's changed.

[scoffs] Changed?

My old man?

He'll never change.

Yeah, well, father
or no father, you're

coming to the party tonight
whether you want to or not.

I won't let you pull your little
shy act again this summer.

Do I have to wear a tux?

Yep, but don't worry,
I got you covered.

I'm warning you, man.

You better watch out.

You might just have a
little bit of fun tonight.

Mwah Catch.

Mwah.

Hey!
[reggae music]

(SINGING) Paradise nights.

Mr. Paradise Nights.

Paradise nights.

Mr. Paradise Nights.

Give us a look, come on.

[sighs]

And you know you're
almost presentable.

Do we have to do this?

Yes, you do.

[sighs]

Let's go.

[chatter]

WOMAN: Hello!

Hi!

Oh, I'm sorry.

Excuse me.

You look wonderful.

Thanks, so do you.

Where's Justin tonight?

Chicago on business.

Oh, poor baby's all alone.

[chuckles] Yes, all alone.

[laughs]

[sighs] I have to go be a wife.

All right.

I'll catch up with
you in a minute.

OK.

Hi, Vivian.

HI.

You look wonderful.

I'm interested
to hear all about.

It's about 150--

Well, well, well.

Justin's out of town, I take it.

[chuckles awkwardly]
Whatever gave that idea, Frank?

Oh, just a lucky guess.

Uh, uh, exactly what do
you think you're doing?

Merely, my dear,
taking advantage

of a perfect situation.

But thanks, but
no thanks, Frank.

Got one like you at home.

[chuckles]

Yes, OK.

Well, that's--

[applause]

He looks like he
could use some company.

I think I'll go talk to him.

Vivian, you are
absolutely shameless.

[chuckles] How do I look?

[reggae music]

Irresistible.

(SINGING) Human eyes.

The Earth and now.

Human eyes.

The Earth.

Human eyes.

The Earth and now.

Mind if I join you?

No.

No, not at all.

Are you having a good time?

I guess so.

[chuckles] You
don't sound so sure.

I-- I feel sort of
out of place here.

Why is that?

A lot of these people used to
be, um, friends of my parents

before--

before my dad's
business went under.

I never really know
what to say to them.

Well, you seemed just fine
when you're at the club.

People treat you differently
when you work for them.

Oh, Matt.

Don't let any of these people
make you feel uncomfortable,

not for a minute, believe me.

They are just not worth it.

It's easy for you to say.

Not really.

It used to bother
me, too, at first.

You seem so relaxed.

It's probably because I
just got to learn how to play

their games, that's all.

I'm from a small town, Matt.

I'm a preacher's daughter.

I didn't grow up with
all these people.

[laughter]

(SINGING) Human eyes.

The Earth and now.

Lauren and I got
a little surprise

for you this afternoon.

Really?

Uh-huh.

I mean, just a little
something to say

thank you for all the time
you spent coaching her.

Let's get out of here.

Why don't you put on
something more comfortable

and drop by my house and
pick up your present?

And here's a little something
extra for staying late tonight.

Oh, you didn't have
to do that, Mrs. Conrad.

No, really, I want to.

Please, Maggie, take it.

I feel bad about keeping
you away from your family

on a Saturday night.

MAGGIE: Well, thank
you very much.

VIVIAN CONRAD: Oh,
you're welcome.

Goodnight.

[electronic whirring]

[sensual music]

Where is everybody?

Lauren's upstairs asleep.

She's going to be very
upset she missed seeing you.

And Justin's out of town.

So when is Mr.
Conrad getting back?

I haven't the faintest idea.

I'd like to propose a toast.

To the best summer ever.

To the best summer ever.

Here, open it up.

I think you're going to love it.

Well, aren't you
going to try it on?

Where?

What's wrong with right here?

Matt, I see you in much
less than that at the pool.

It's just a shirt.

Slip it on.

OK.

I better go.

I wish you wouldn't.

Matt.

I shouldn't even be here.

Th-- thanks for the shirt.

Matt?

I'd really like you to stay.

I can't do this.

Well, you can trust me.

I-- I haven't been with
that many girls before.

[sensual music]

I'm a very good teacher.

[sensual music]

Is everything OK?

Yes, Lauren's sound asleep.

Can I ask you something?

Of course.

Did, um--

[chuckles awkwardly]
was-- was that good?

[chuckles] Terrific.

Really?

(CHUCKLING) Mm-hmm.

Really.

The truth is, um,
tonight was my first time.

I-- I just feel like I
should tell you that.

I-- I don't know why.

I-- I just thought
you should know.

That's very special, Matt.

I'm quite flattered.

Does that mean I
can see you again?

The best summer
ever, remember?

But you do have to
promise me one thing.

Anything.

While this can be as wonderful
a summer as you want it to be,

as long as we keep this
just between you and me.

But what about Mr. Conrad?

I thought I told you to
let me worry about Justin.

I know, I know, but what if--

Matt, you have got to
tell me and promise me

that you will not say one
word about this to anyone.

Promise?

I promise.

[moans]

[sensual music]

[door closing]

[chatter]

What are you looking at?

[chuckles] The look on
your face says it all.

Nothing serious, Jackie.

You know that.

[chuckles] Yes, but
the question is, does he?

He's adorable, isn't he?

There's just this
innocence about him

that I find fascinating.

[laughs]

Well, if you can tear yourself
away from Mr. Fascinating,

our court is ready.

SPORTSCASTER (ON TV): The
bottom of the fifth inning.

[phone ringing]

MATT TEMPLETON: I got it.

SPORTSCASTER (ON TV):
The prospects look

good in the fourth when
the bases were loaded.

[phone ringing]

--struck out by
Corvales, leaving

everything up in the air.

CHARLES TEMPLETON: Hello?

VIVIAN CONRAD (ON
PHONE): Charles.

CHARLES TEMPLETON: Hi, Vivian.

VIVIAN CONRAD (ON PHONE):
It's been a long time.

Yes, it-- it has
been a long time.

VIVIAN CONRAD (ON
PHONE): Is Matt home?

Matt?

Yes, he's-- he's here.

VIVIAN CONRAD (ON PHONE):
May I speak to him?

Just a minute.

Hello?

VIVIAN CONRAD (ON PHONE): I hope
it's all right that I called.

Of course.

I was beginning to wonder
if you'd forgotten about me.

VIVIAN CONRAD (ON
PHONE): After the evening

we spent together, how could I?

Where are you?

VIVIAN CONRAD (ON PHONE):
Look out your front window.

So want to play a little
tennis for a while?

I'll be right out.

So I take it we're not
going to play tennis?

Would you like to play tennis?

I have been wanting to
do this all day long.

[upbeat music]

MATT TEMPLETON: I'd say you
have been officially stood up.

ALEC: Man, she'll show.

I'm telling you, this
girl really digs me.

Whoa!

Inspiration has arrived.

Viv, I have a little
surprise for you.

I've rented a house
at the beach for us.

A whole week of nothing but
sea and sun, just and me, hm?

Justin, that's wonderful.

I called your folks.

They'd be happy to take
Lauren for the week.

This is what you
wanted, isn't it?

Of course, we haven't been
away together in a long time.

Hey, Matt.

Matt!

Uh, Matt, what do
you want to drink?

You drinking anything?

Uh, nothing.

Excuse me, for a
minute, will you?

[chatter]

Well, hello there.

What are you doing here?

I might ask you
the same question.

The girl you're with is pretty.

Yeah.

Y-- yeah.

Alec keeps trying to
set me up with her.

I-- I got stuck.

No, no, really, I--

I-- there was nothing
I could do about it.

Matt, I'm just teasing you.

Oh, right.

I tried calling
you this afternoon.

That's funny.

Maggie didn't say there
were any messages.

Messages?
I'm not crazy.

I didn't leave any messages.

I've been thinking
about you all day.

Really?

When can I see you again?

I'm free tomorrow.

I'll arrange for Maggie
to take Lauren someplace.

And we can spend part
of the day together.

That would be great.

Whoa, little jumpy, aren't we?

I-- I, uh--

Hello, Matt.

Hi, Mr. Conrad.

I-- I was just telling,
uh, Mrs. Conrad that I--

I've been meaning to drop by
the office and-- and see you.

I-- I've been really busy.

Any time.

Any time at all, Matt.

Well, thanks.

Uh, just a minute.

Lauren won't be at swim
practice this week.

Viv and I are going
to be going out

of town, so, uh, Lauren will be
staying with her grandparents.

Is that a problem?

No.

No, sir, not at all.

Good.

Always nice to see you, Matt.

[chatter]

They're all out.

I can't believe you're going
away with him for that long.

Matt, it's only a week.

Yeah, but the summer is
short enough as it is, Vivian.

School's starting soon.

Oh, Matt, look,
don't do this to me.

Justin planned this trip.

He just dropped it on
me out of the blue.

What was I supposed to do?

You're going to miss me?

Of course, I'm
going to miss you.

You're going to miss me?

Let me show you how much.

[water splashing]

[sensual music]

[birds chirping]

[clock chiming]

Your mother was worried
half out of her mind

when you didn't come
home last night.

I told her I'd be late.

This isn't late, Matt.

It's dawn.

Where the hell have
you been anyway?

None of your business.

Matt.

As long as you're living under
this roof, everything you do

is my business.

Look, I just want to make sure
you're not doing something

you'll be sorry for later.

Get real.

You don't care about me.

You don't care
about mom, either.

And the only reason why
you're back in this house

is because you're flat broke.

There's the dad I know.

[seagulls squawking]

[sensual music]

Let's go inside.

[moans]

Look, I hate to do
this, but I have

to fly back to Chicago tonight.

The Cramer deal's falling apart.

Why didn't you
tell me this earlier?

[sighs] Because I didn't
want to disappoint you.

Oh.

This is so typical
of you, Justin.

You say you want us
to be alone together,

then you just run off on
business the first time

the phone rings.

Business is what pays
for vacations like this.

Business puts a
roof over your head

and a tennis racket
in your hand.

I'm sorry you find my
business so offensive.

How long are you
going to be gone?

[sighs] Well, if I'm
lucky, only a day or two.

And I'll probably have
to go straight back

to the office when I return.

Look, I'm sorry.

I better go pack.

[phone ringing]

Hello?

Hi, I'm glad it's you.

MATT TEMPLETON (ON
PHONE): Hey, how are you?

I'm fine, but I miss you.

Are you where you can talk?

Uh, sort of.

What's up?

Well, Justin had to
leave on business today.

I can leave right now.

Mm, why don't you
come down tomorrow.

But you call me just as
soon as you get to town, OK?

I'll give you the number.

OK.

See you tomorrow.

Who was that, honey?

Uh, Tommy Ferguson.

Oh, your old roommate.

Yeah, yeah.

Um, he wants me to come
up to his parent's cabin.

A bunch of friends
are there from school.

When?

Tomorrow.

I can be there before lunch.

What about work?

I'll get somebody
to replace me.

[uplifting music]

VIVIAN CONRAD: You did it!

Oh, it looks great!

Yes!

Come on!

Let me hold it.

Oh!

[chuckles]

You still have the kite?

I still have the kite.

Do I have to hold this kite now?

Yes.

I might not.

I might let go.

You better.

[chuckles] OK, I'll hold it.

[sensual music]

[sighs]

I wish the wind could
pick us up like that

and never bring us back.

Yeah, Mom, hi.

I just wanted you to know,
uh, I got here safe and sound.

OK, I'll be home in
a couple of days.

OK, bye.

That was so sweet.

I don't like my mom to worry.

Well, all mothers worry
about their children.

Yeah, well, this is different.

It is?

How is this different?

I-- I did something
a while back

that really scared her a lot.

Mm, that sounds like it
must have been pretty serious.

It was serious.

Well, do you want
to tell me about it?

I don't think I really want
to talk about it right now.

I hope you know that
you can tell me anything.

And it's never going to change
the way I feel about you.

[somber music]

I tried to kill myself.

Why?

To get away from my dad.

What did he do to you?

It started when
I was about six.

He used to slap
me with his hand.

That wasn't so bad.

But when that didn't
work, he used to whip me

with a belt, a thick,
black, leather belt.

Anything would set him off.

If I-- if I didn't
win a swim meet.

If-- if I didn't bring home
straight A's in my report card.

Oh, Matt.

He would just grin at me.

And then he'd snap that
belt. I can still hear it.

Did your mother
ever try to stop it?

She'd try.

But he'd just slap her
down and keep coming at me.

When did it stop?

[scoffs] Stop?

It never stopped.

There were times when
he beat me so hard,

I thought he was
going to kill me.

That's-- that's why I
decided to kill myself

and save him the trouble.

But my mom walked in on me.

[sensual music]

[phone ringing]

Hello?

Oh, hi.

Just taking a nap.

How did your meetings go?

Well, I don't know, Justin.

Uh, I'll be home
in a day or two.

I miss you, too.

Yeah, that's good.

We'll just-- we'll
see what happens.

Yeah, I am.

I'm-- I'm sleepy.

[chuckles]

I love you, too.

[seagulls squawking]

VIVIAN CONRAD: Are you OK?

MATT TEMPLETON: I don't
want to go back to school.

I don't want to be away from
you, not even for a day.

That's sweet, Matt.

You have to go back to school.

You can't lose your scholarship.

I don't care about my
damn scholarship anymore.

[giggles]

I love you.

Do you love me?

I care for you so much.

I've told you that.

[somber music]

Matt, the fact that you
tell me you love me,

that means so much to me.

And I want to be an
important part of your life.

You are my life, Vivian.

Matt, listen to me.

We both have our
own lives to lead.

You have to go back to school.

I have my family.

Stop it, Vivian!

I love you!

I want to be with you.

Matt.

Say you love me, too!

It's not that easy.

You told Justin you loved him.

I heard you!

Vivian, I've told you
things that I've never

told anyone before in my life.

You're the first person I've
trusted enough to do that.

Doesn't that mean
anything to you?

Of course, it does.

Then why can't you
tell me you love me?

Tell me you love me!

Matt, you're hurting me.

Three words, Vivian!

I want to hear them!

I love you.

Again!

I love you.

Again!

[ominous music]

I love you!

See, was that so hard?

ALEC: You know, I can't believe
you actually showed up today.

Sorry, man.

But it's not like
I've been hiding out.

Yeah, well, you
could have fooled me.

MATT TEMPLETON: Alec, have
you ever cared about someone

so much that it hurt?

That if you left them
behind, you thought you die?

[scoffs] Once.

Well, then maybe
you'll understand

what's been going on.

I'm in love.

Well, that explains a lot.

You finally did it, didn't you?

You did it, and you
kept it all to yourself.

Well, come on,
Matt, who is she?

Vivian Conrad.

We've been seeing each
other since the beginning

of the summer.

We're-- we're in love.

Oh, man.

You are in way over your head.

KATHERINE TEMPLETON: I didn't
know whether to show them

to you or not.

Matt, get in here!

Charles, he leaves
for school soon.

You let me handle this.

What?

What's going on here?

This is Vivian
Conrad's credit card.

I want an answer.

I'm in love with her, mom.

[ominous music]

You can't mean that.

Vivian's the best thing
that ever happened to me.

You must be out of your mind.

Matt, she's a grown woman.

She's married.

And she has a child.

You haven't even
finished school.

Vivian wants me
to finish school.

She's the only reason
I'm bothering to go back.

[sighs] This
just isn't normal.

Oh, sure, like this family
wrote the book on being normal.

Just a minute.

I'm not through with you yet.

Don't you touch me again.

KATHERINE TEMPLETON: [sobs]

VIVIAN CONRAD: Oh, the
cake was so beautiful!

Yeah.

[chatter]

Thank you very much.

Oh, this is just--
[doorbell ringing]

--lovely.

Matt.

What are you doing here?

We need to talk.

This is not a good time.

Vivian, my parents
found out about us.

I thought we had
an arrangement.

How did that happen?

It doesn't matter.

They-- they found out!

Look, you have to leave now.

Vivian, we need to talk.

Viv, who is it?

Oh, hello, Matt.

What can we do for you?

Matt just stopped over
to say goodbye on his way

back to college, isn't
that right, Matt?

Yeah, sure, whatever.

Well, good luck.

Uh, you're going to
have to excuse us, Matt.

We have company

Right, company.

Sorry, Matt.

Yeah, I'm sorry, too.

[birds chirping]

See you tomorrow, bye.

[electric whirring]

[sensual music]

[water splashing]

You are absolutely beautiful.

[gasps] Matt, what
are you doing here?

I wanted to see you before
I went off to college.

I've been trying to call you
for the last couple of days,

but Maggie keeps giving
me the runaround.

How did you get in the house?

No one answered.

I let myself in.

That's OK, isn't it?

No, it's not OK.

Justin and Lauren will
be here in a few minutes.

Well, then we
got a few minutes.

No, don't.

Stop it, Matt.

We could get caught.

You never wanted
me to stop before.

[ominous music]

[moans]

[door closing]

Justin's home.

He's going to kill
me if he finds you.

Hurry, Matt.

Get going, quickly!

My shoes.

What?

- Will you write to me?
- Yes, of course, I will.

- Promise.
- Yes, I promise.

Go.

Hi!

Oh, hi, sweetie.
LAUREN: Hi, mom.

JUSTIN CONRAD:
Lauren, go change,

and then you can watch
the videos, all right?

I think I'll get dressed now.

You do that.

[school bell tolling]

[chatter]

VIVIAN CONRAD (VOICEOVER):
Dear, Matt, as always,

it was great hearing from you.

Why is it that
whenever I'm alone,

my mind goes back
to thoughts of you?

I can almost touch
your smooth skin,

see your bright, beautiful
eyes, and feel the way you

used to hold me in your arms.

We both know you
going back to school

was the right thing
to do, but I will

always cherish the time we
spent together this past summer.

I hope your classes
are going well.

I just know you'll
make the dean's

list again this semester.

I am so proud of you.

And I know you have a
bright future ahead of you.

Write again, soon.

I miss you.

Vivian.

[door closing]

Mom's here.

Isn't that nice!

It's beautiful!

Hi, Maggie.

Where's Mr. Conrad?

He's in your bedroom.

Any messages?

Matt Templeton called.

Three times, mommy.

Three times?

You better get a move on.

We have to be there in an hour.

OK, I won't be long.

I won't be long at all.

Good.

[phone ringing]

I'll get it.

Hello?

Thank god, you're home.

I've been trying to
call you all day.

VIVIAN CONRAD (ON PHONE): Hi.

Hi, Jackie.

I guess you can't talk.

No, Justin and I are just,
uh, getting ready to go

out for dinner this evening.

Listen, I thought I was always
supposed to call you, remember?

I know, I know.

I-- I couldn't help it.

I've been getting your
letters, they're great.

I can't wait to see
you over the holidays.

No, actually, this is not a
very good time for me to talk.

OK.

I get it.

Well, when would be a good time?

I'd love to talk to you.

Well, thank you for calling.

I'll, uh, talk to you soon.

[chatter]

[thunder clap]

[phone ringing]

STUDENT: Hey, Tony, telephone!

TONY: Oh, I got it, thanks!

[thunder clap]

MATT TEMPLETON
(VOICEOVER): Dear, Vivian,

all I do is think about you.

Just when I think I
can't miss you anymore,

the hurting starts
all over again.

I see people everywhere, but
I don't try to make friends.

What's the point?

They're not you.

I'd much rather be
alone in my room

with only my thoughts of us.

I still can't believe how lucky
I am you let me into your life.

I asked myself a
million times, why me?

I think it's because deep
down you know that no one will

ever love you as much as I do.

[crashing]

LAUREN: [sobs]

Here I am, sweetheart.

[sobs]

Oh!

OK, honey, here
take your foot out.

Come on, come on.

Mommy's going to
make that all better.

Here, here, you lean on me.

Come on now.

Lean on me.

OK.

Is it bad?

No, no, nothing a little
antiseptic won't fix.

I'll be right there, sweetie.

[sighs]

[ominous music]

MATT TEMPLETON (VOICEOVER):
When I'm missing you,

the most I keep telling myself,
I'll be home before I know it

and that you'll hold
me in your arms again.

Remember that I will
always love you.

Matt.

VIVIAN CONRAD: Oh, there.

So it wasn't as bad as
we thought it was, right?

It stings a little
bit, but it's better now.

VIVIAN CONRAD: OK.

Now you go and scoot.

You made quite an impression
on Matt Templeton last summer.

What are you talking about?

Care to explain this?

Vivian, I want an explanation.

VIVIAN CONRAD: Keep
your voice down.

Lauren can hear
every word you say.

You always get exactly what
you want, don't you, Vivian?

Oh, don't you dare
look at me like I'm

the only one in this room
who's ever had an affair.

I never claimed to be
perfect, but even at my worst,

I still used a
little common sense.

The boy is only 19 years old.

Dammit, Vivian, this isn't
just a casual affair to him.

He thinks he's in love with you.

What the hell were you thinking!

I was thinking maybe I
was happy for a change.

For a change.

How could you not be happy?

You have a daughter who
loves you, a beautiful home,

clothes, cars, money, the club.

I have given you everything
you have ever asked for.

You just don't get
it, do you, Justin?

You've given me everything
except what I needed.

Yeah, what's that?

- I needed you.
- Uh.

But you've never
been in this home

long enough to even see it.

So your way of
getting back at me

is to have an affair
with Matt Templeton?

No, I was not
getting back at you.

I was merely trying to keep
myself from being so alone!

You don't know the
meaning of the word

alone till you have
to live in this house

without your husband
or your daughter

because that's exactly what's
going to happen if you don't

cut this thing off with Matt.

I will see to it that
you lose everything,

me, Lauren, everything.

Do I make myself
perfectly clear?

Do I!

Call Matt.

I think you know the number.

[ominous music]

[phone ringing]

[knocking]

What is it?

STUDENT: Phone call, Templeton.

Who is it?

STUDENT: Some
woman named Vivian.

[ominous music]

Hi, I can't
believe you called.

Matt, I have
something to say to you.

It's important that you
listen very closely.

What are you talking about?

It's over, Matt.

You can't possibly
mean that, Vivian.

Justin found one
of your letters.

He knows everything.

I don't give a damn if your
husband found out or not!

VIVIAN CONRAD (ON
PHONE): I'm sorry, Matt.

It's over.

But you told me you love me!

VIVIAN CONRAD (ON PHONE):
I have to hang up now.

No, don't.

Please, don't--
Vivian, don't hang up!

[ominous music]

CHARLES CONRAD
(ON PHONE): Hello?

Hello!

[tires screeching]

[doorbell ringing]

JUSTIN CONRAD: [sighs]
What the hell do you want?

Where's Vivian?

JUSTIN CONRAD: Mrs.
Conrad is upstairs asleep.

I need to talk to Vivian.

JUSTIN CONRAD:
That's not possible.

You're no longer
welcome in our home.

Vivian!

Vivian!

Would you shut up!

Now are you going to
leave on your own, Matt,

or do I have to call the police?

Yes, I'd like to report an
intruder, 903 Braxton Way.

Thank you.

The police are on their way.

Do you care to wait in the den?

Are you proud of yourself?

LAUREN: Mom?

What's wrong?

Nothing, sweetheart.

Daddy just thought
he heard something.

You go back to bed.

[shouting, screaming]

KATHERINE TEMPLETON: No, don't!

JUSTIN CONRAD: [shouts]

KATHERINE TEMPLETON: [screams]

Get away from her!

You hear me?

Leave her alone!

KATHERINE TEMPLETON:
No, Matt, no!

Please?

No!

Matt!

Don't!

No!

No!

[groans]

Where's your belt now, Dad?

Matt, stop it!

You've got two choices.

You can pack your bags
and get out of our lives,

or I can finish
you off right now!

Which is too going to be?

I was only trying to
do the right thing, Matt.

I know.

I know.

What on Earth brought
you home from school?

Let's get you some
sleep, and we'll

talk about it in the morning.

[chatter]

Ma'am.

Matt's back!

Son of a bitch.

Justin, please, let it go.

Hello.

Hello.

[chuckling]

No, she's said it.

I promise you.

[chuckles] Yeah.

Oh, OK.

I've got to go, though.

Lauren and Justin are going
to be looking all over for me.

Bye, girls.

Bye.

I'm not so sure that
you should be here.

It's OK.

I just got my old job back.

Well, that's not going
to change anything.

I still can't see you anymore.

Not now, but it will.

I know Justin made
you say those things.

And he was right.

I love you, Vivian.

And I'm-- I'm willing
to wait for you,

no matter how long it takes.

I'm here to take you back.

Look, it's over Matt.

Nothing can change that.

Vivian?

You'll find somebody else.

You'll find someone
who is right for you.

Vivian, I don't
want anybody else.

I want you.

You can't have me.

You can't!

You're tearing yourself up over
something that can never be.

Look at me.

You have got to let this go.

[somber music]

Do you understand?

We have hurt enough
people already.

So next week same time.

No.

[chuckles]

Oh, I understand.

You'll take care of it?
Good.

[ominous music]
- Thanks, Brent.

Don't worry, Mr.
Conrad, leave it to me.

You're the best.

Sure.

[chatter]

[phone ringing]

Brent from the
club is on the phone.

[buzzing]

Vivian!

[dogs barking]

[buzzing]

[lounge music]

Where was Lauren off to
in such a hurry tonight?

Oh, the Hendersons
for a slumber party.

She was very excited.

[chuckles]

MATT TEMPLETON: Let go of me!

I have to speak to Mr. Conrad.

Get off me.

I'm very sorry, Mr. Conrad.

JUSTIN CONRAD: It's
all right, Henry.

I'll take care of this.

Matt, why don't you grab
a chair and join us, hm?

That'll be all.

Yes, sir.

What seems to be the problem?

You are the problem.

You just decided I
can't have a job here.

I have no idea what
you're talking about.

You liar!

Matt, calm down.

He had me fired, Vivian!

That job was the only
thing I had left.

JUSTIN CONRAD: I
don't think this

is the time or the
place to be discussing

your employment problems, Matt.

My problems are your
problems, Mr. Conrad.

You should know that by now.

You have to tell him, Vivian.

You have to tell him everything.

Tell him what, Matt?

- Take Mr. Templeton outside.
- Yes, sir.

Come on.

It's time everyone
knows the truth, Vivian!

SECURITY: Go on.

That's it.
Come on.

MATT TEMPLETON: Let go of me!

SECURITY: Come on, now.
MATT TEMPLETON: Vivian!

SECURITY: Relax.

[lounge music]

VIVIAN CONRAD: Dear,
Matt, alone again

with only my thoughts of you.

I can almost taste your
lips touching mine,

and it triggers my
craving for you.

[ominous music]

What starts out
as soft and gentle

soon bursts into
full-blown passion.

I can feel your hands move along
my body, and my need for you

grows until it's
almost unbearable.

Oh, I miss you so very much.

Oh!

Morning.

Hi, Vivian.

[whispering]

Morning.

Hi, Mrs. Conrad.

[giggling]

Good morning.

That bastard!

[bar music]

You did what?

I copied the letter she
sent me, the one about how

I made love to her,
about how she missed

being with me, everything.

Tell me you're
making this up, man.

You are making this up.

No, I really did it.

Excuse me.

[chatter]

I plastered it everywhere.

I plastered it all
over the club, all

over their neighborhood,
everywhere.

What did you do that for?

Because the Conrads run
around telling lies about me.

That's why.

I can't let them get
away with that, Alec.

I want everyone to know the
truth about me and Vivian.

The truth about
you and Vivian.

The truth is she used you.

She used you, and
she dumped you.

You don't understand.

We loved each other.

Matt, it had nothing
to do with love.

Damn it, Alec!

Matt, I know what
I'm talking about.

No, you don't!

No one understands.

Matt, I do understand.

Did she give you a shirt, too?

[ominous music]

I thought so.

Matt, I hate to
break this to you,

but she does this every summer.

Last summer, it was me.

[scoffs] Don't worry, man.

You'll get over it.

I did.

[doorbell ringing]

Yes.

I'm here to see
Matt Templeton.

Just a minute.

Matt?

Someone to see you.

Matt Templeton?

Yeah?

As an officer
of the court, I've

been instructed to deliver
this into your hands.

Here.

What is this?

If you have any questions,
just call the number

at the bottom of the document.

Good day, sir.

Come on.

Good.

This is 2 for 2 and 3 for 3!

Do right hand.

OK, right hand?

[groans] Time out, time out.

Change of player.

[chuckles]

Go on.

Go on.

OK.

See you in a minute.

Are you ready for this?

Oh, sorry.

[tires screeching]

Lauren, go inside.

LAUREN: Oh, Mom.

No, go inside now, Lauren.

Tell Daddy that I need
him out here right away.

You must want to go to jail.

What do you mean?

Weren't you served
with restraining

papers this morning?

Oh, yeah.

Big deal.

Yes, it is a very big deal.

You're not allowed
to be here legally.

If you don't leave,
I'll have you arrested.

I should have you
arrested anyway.

For what?

For making some sick,
public joke of my letters.

How could you do that?

Alec told me everything.

[ominous music]

Justin!

Save your breath, Vivian.

Justin can't get
you out of this one.

Everything's a game to
you, isn't it, Vivian!

I loved you!

I trusted you!

You never cared about me!

You only care about yourself!

You're just like everyone else!

[ominous music]

[knocking]

MATT TEMPLETON:
Uh, come in, Mom.

What's the matter?

I thought you had
a job interview.

I didn't go.

Oh, Matt, why not?

Uh, I had some
stuff on my mind.

It still hurts, doesn't it?

Yeah.

I really loved her, Mom.

But after what
she did to me, I--

I hate her, too.

I don't know.

I can't tell the difference
between love and hate anymore.

They both just feel
the same to me.

You can't hide in
your room forever.

That won't make your
problems with Vivian go away.

Sooner or later,
you're going to have

to come out and face the world.

Tell you what, why don't
you put on a fresh shirt

and go see if you can
still have that interview?

Yeah, anything you say, Mom.

Matt, everything's
going to be just fine.

[chatter]

[laughter]

I'm sorry.

What a shot.

I got lucky, again.

He's here again.

It's all right.

I can handle it.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

Look, would you ask
Justin to check on Lauren?

What is it now, Matt?

I just wanted you to
know that I'm sorry I

ever even met you, Vivian.

[ominous music]

Vivian!

[gunshot]

Vivian!

[gunshots]

MAN: Somebody call an ambulance!

Help!

Somebody call
an ambulance, now!

[door closing]

Hi, honey.

How did the interview go?

[ominous music]

[knocking]

Matt, what's wrong?

Matt, what's the matter?

[sirens wailing]

Come on, give us
some backup here.

[radio chatter]

There he is!

There he is!

No!

Get her out of here now!

You have the right
to remain silent.

If you give up this
right, anything you say

can and will be
used against you.

MATT TEMPLETON
(VOICEOVER): Vivian

looked me right in
the eye an instant

before I pulled the trigger.

It was as though she knew what
was going to happen and why.

KATHERINE TEMPLETON: No!

No!

Matt!

I love you, Matt.

[radio chatter]

MATT TEMPLETON (VOICEOVER):
Vivian meant everything to me,

but nobody understood
that, not even her.

Maybe now, they'll
all understand.

[somber music]

KATHERINE TEMPLETON: [sobs] No!
