WE'RE RENTING A PLACE HERE. YOU ARE. [SIGHS] DON'T YOU JUST LOVE OUR LITTLE CORNER OF THE WORLD? WELL, YOU KNOW WHAT? I KNOW EVERYONE IN TOWN. IF YOU NEED ANYTHING, YOU JUST ASK ME.

OF COURSE I DO. DON'T YOU? YEAH, I REMEMBER THAT, BUT WE DIDN'T SPEAK. I DIDN'T THINK YOU REMEMBERED. WELL, I MAY HAVE STARTED LIFE IN A CLOSET, BUT IT'S VIVIAN WHO'S GOING TO END UP THERE. [THUDS] YOU THINK I'LL EVER DO ANYTHING I CAN BE PROUD OF AGAIN? OH. OF COURSE YOU WILL. HMM. [CHUCKLING] -WHY DO WE HAVE A BEANBAG? -I DON'T KNOW. [SOFT MUSIC PLAYING] THAT'S A SAD MOVE. WHAT? HMM. I LIKE A DAY THAT'S CLEAR OR AT LEAST A NIGHT SO BRIGHT, IT CHASES DARKNESS... -OH, YEAH? -MM-HMM. THAT'S A GOOD MOVE IF YOU'RE A GIANT CHEATER. [MUSIC CONTINUES] LAINEY, WHAT ARE YOU DOING? DO YOU NOT WANT TO PLAY ANYMORE? ARE YOU BORED? [GASPS] [LAUGHING] HERE. THANKS. YOU SEEM DISTRACTED. IS IT STRESS? FROM FIVE SHOWS A WEEK WORKING TO DECIDING WHERE THE TOASTER GOES? I THINK I CAN HANDLE IT. I AM GOING OUT OF MY MIND. I'M GLAD YOU HAVE SO MANY REASONS TO BE HAPPY. -NO, THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT. -THAT MAKES ME FEEL GREAT. THAT'S NOT WHAT I MEANT. WELL, WHAT DID YOU MEAN THE OTHER FIVE TIMES YOU'VE MENTIONED HOW POINTLESS IT IS SINCE WE GOT HERE? I'M HAPPY TO BE HERE WITH YOU. I'VE NEVER DOUBTED THAT, BUT... WORK HAS BEEN A BIG PART OF MY LIFE, AND IT'S GONE, SO CAN YOU JUS NOT TAKE IT PERSONALLY UNTIL I FIGURE THIS OUT? I LOVE YOU. I LOVE SPENDING TIME WITH YOU. BUT NOW THAT YOU'RE SPENDING SO MUCH TIME AROUND ME, MAYBE I'M JUST AFRAID THAT YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO FIND THINGS TO STILL LOVE. IT'S NOT EVEN A QUESTION. -HEY. -HEY. SO, VAL AND JASON ARE DRIVING THROUGH NEXT WEEKEND. THEY'RE HEADED UP THE COAST. THEY WANTED TO SEE IF THEY COULD STOP IN. YEAH, SOUNDS GOOD. -ARE YOU SURE? -YEAH, SOUNDS GOOD. [MUTTERING] SOUNDS GOOD. I HATE THIS HOUSE. YOU CAN'T FIND ANYTHING. YOU WANT SOME? SO BETWEEN MY SON'S BRAIN HEMORRHAGE AND SAYING GOOD-BYE TO THREE EXES, I AM NO STRANGER TO A DOCTOR'S OFFICE. [CHUCKLES] WELL, ALL WE'RE GOING TO DO IS CHECK THA YOUR SHORT-TERM MEMORY AND YOUR COGNITIVE FUNCTIONING ARE-- THEY'RE ALL WHERE THEY SHOULD BE. OKAY? SHE'S FORGETTING SMALL HOUSEHOLD THINGS, YOU KNOW, WHERE THINGS GO, THEIR NAMES, THINGS WE'VE TALKED ABOUT. IT-- IT'S A CONCENTRATION THING. I'M NOT CONCENTRATING BECAUSE I DON'T CARE. RIGHT. WELL, HAVE YOU EXPERIENCED CHANGES IN MOOD? DEPRESSION? LOSS OF INTEREST? NOPE. MY MEMORY IS JUST FINE. THIS IS WHY WE'RE HERE, 'CAUSE IT'S-- YOU KNOW, JUST SEEMS KIND OF SUDDEN. YOU KNOW, SEEING AS YOU ARE HERE, THERE'S NO REASON NOT TO GO THROUGH WITH WHAT WE CALL A MINI COG TEST. AND IT JUST MEANS I'M GOING TO SAY THREE ITEMS, AND I'D LIKE YOU TO REPEAT THEM BACK TO ME. -OKAY? -MM-HMM. SPOON, CHAIR, TREE. SPOON, CHAIR, TREE. GOOD. EASY, RIGHT? SO JUST TRY TO REMEMBER THOSE, AND IN A MINUTE I'LL ASK YOU TO REPEAT THEM. NOW, I WOULD ALSO USUALLY ASK YOU TO DRAW THE NUMBERS ON A CLOCK FACE FOR ME, IF YOU WOULD. AH, LOOK AT THAT. IT'S A-- IT'S A BEAUTIFUL PART OF THE WORLD THERE BY THE OCEAN. IT'S GORGEOUS. IT JUST GETS MORE BEAUTIFUL AS YOU DRIVE UP THAT COAST. -IT DOES. -ALWAYS WANTED TO GE A PLACE BY THE WATER. -YOU SHOULD. -YEAH? ALL RIGHT, GOOD. WE'RE NEARLY DONE HERE. LAINEY, JUST REPEA THOSE THREE ITEMS FOR ME, IF YOU WOULD? -LAINEY. -YEAH. UM... CHAIR. CHAIR... SPOON. YOU SAID SPOON. UM, THIS IS CRAZY. COME ON. I COULD REMEMBER THESE EASILY, BUT THEY'RE ABSTRACT. THEY HAVE NO CONTEX OR MEANING, RIGHT? THIS IS SILLY. IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE. OKAY, UM... ALL RIGHT, WELL, THERE'S-- THERE'S ONE MORE THING I COULD RECOMMEND-- A NEUROIMAGING SCAN. THAT'LL GIVE US A GOOD PLACE TO START. SIX WEEKS? YOU'RE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING? OKAY. THANK YOU. I WILL. WHO WAS THAT? THE DOCTOR. IS HE NOT TALKING TO ME DIRECTLY? AM I OFFICIALLY INCOMPETENT? ARE YOU MY LEGAL GUARDIAN? I CALLED HIM. HIDING IN THE BEDROOM. I'M NOT HIDING. HE LEFT A MESSAGE, AND YOU NEVER PLAY THEM, EVEN WHEN THE LIGH IS BLINKING. OKAY. DO YOU WANT TO TELL ME? UM, THE SCAN IS CLEAR. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. THAT'S GREAT, RIGHT? YEAH, IT RULES OU A LOT OF SERIOUS PROBLEMS, BUT THEY RAN A BLOOD TES FOR A GENE, AN INHERITED GENE. IT'S THE EARLY ONSE INDICATOR. OH. WOW. YOU KNEW. YOU KNEW THA THIS WAS A POSSIBILITY, AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME? WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE IF I HAD TOLD YOU? THAT'S WHY WE'RE HERE. BECAUSE YOU WERE AFRAID THIS WAS HAPPENING TO YOU, AND YOU DIDN'T TELL ME? YOU'RE SO CALM. HOW CAN YOU BE SO CALM? YOU DIDN'T THINK IT MIGHT BE HELPFUL TO TELL ME, THAT MAYBE I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE TIME TO PROCESS THIS, TOO? I DIDN'T KNOW FOR SURE. IT WAS A 50% CHANCE. THEY SAID IT WAS A 50% CHANCE. IF I HAD TOLD YOU, YOU WOULD'VE SPEN THE LAST TEN YEARS OF OUR LIVES WAITING FOR THIS DAY JUST LIKE I HAVE. WELL, AT LEAST I KNOW WE WON'T PASS IT ALONG TO OUR KIDS. CAN WE GET OUT OF HERE? YOU'LL NEVER GUESS WHAT I HUNTED DOWN, AND I JUST COULDN'T PASS UP THE OPPORTUNITY TO ASK YOU TO SIGN IT. WOULD YOU MIND? OF COURSE. UH, WHAT'S YOUR NAME AGAIN? -JULIE. -JULIE. AND COULD YOU WRITE I TO HAL, TOO? HE WAS MY HUSBAND. HE WATCHED YOU EVERY DAY. HE'S GONE NOW, BUT I KNOW THIS'LL MAKE HIM SMILE DOWN FROM HEAVEN. THANK YOU SO MUCH. YOU BET. EXCUSE ME. SO SHE DIDN'T MARRY JASON AFTER ALL? NO. THAT JUST BROKE MY HEAR WHEN I READ ABOUT IT. IS SHE OKAY? SHE'S GREAT. SHE'S FINE. HAVE YOU-- HAVE YOU BEEN FRIENDS WITH HER FOR A WHILE? A WHILE. YEAH. CAN I JUST ASK YOU. I-- I WON'T TELL ANYONE. I MEAN, IT'S GONNA STAY RIGHT HERE BETWEEN US. HAS SHE MOVED ON? IS SHE SEEING ANYONE NEW? SHE'S DEFINITELY SEEING SOMEONE. SOMEONE FROM THE SHOW? UH, NOT-- NO, NOT REALLY. NO, IT'S-- SHE'S-- NO. UM, IS IT SERIOUS? YEAH. YES. CAN YOU TELL ME? I JUST WANT HER TO BE HAPPY. WELL, YEAH, SHE-- YOU KNOW, SHE'S-- SHE'S WITH ME. OH. I'M SORRY. OH. I DON'T-- UM... OH, GOSH, I'M IN YOUR SEAT. I, UM... THANK YOU FOR THIS. YEAH. [SIGHS] [MAN CHUCKLES] -HI. -FOR YOU. OH, THANK YOU. -HELLO. -HOW ARE YOU? -GOOD. -GOOD TO SEE YOU. -OH, MY WORD, LOOK HOW BEAUTIFUL THIS IS. -WOW. IT'S BEAUTIFUL. IT'S NOT AS BEAUTIFUL AS YOU TWO. -COME HERE. -DO YOU WANNA SEE OUTSIDE? YES, OF COURSE. SO THE WRITERS CAME TO ME WITH THIS IDEA. RIGHT? OH, THEY'RE BRINGING TODD HAYES BACK. DID YOU KNOW? N-NO, I DIDN'T. I-- WELL, IT'S INSPIRED, IF YOU THINK ABOUT IT. WE FIND OU THAT TODD'S MY SON. [CHUCKLES] OH, GOSH, I DIDN'T SEE THAT COMING. IT MAKES SENSE, YOU KNOW, GIVEN OUR HISTORIES, BECAUSE WE KNOW THAT AVERY LIED TO ZACH ABOUT THE BABY, RIGHT? AND THEN OF COURSE... HONEY, JASON, REALLY PLEASE. WOW. I THINK LAINEY'S HEARD ENOUGH FARFETCHED BABY ANTICS TO LAST A LIFETIME. WELL, SHE HAD SEX WITH TODD. OH, GOD. FOR THE FIRST TIME, I REALLY UNDERSTAND WHY IT'S A LITTLE STRANGE TO LET THIS JOB CONSUME YOU, 'CAUSE YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE YOU END AND THE CHARACTER BEGINS. WELL, THEN YOU'RE WELL ON YOUR WAY TO BEING NORMAL AGAIN. CHEERS. [WOMEN LAUGH] ANYONE WAN ANYTHING ELSE TO DRINK? WOULD YOU LIKE SOME COFFEE? YEAH, THAT'D BE GREAT. I'LL GET IT. WELL, THIS IS A CHANGE OF PACE FROM THE LAINEY I KNEW. FIVE DAYS A WEEK AND ALL THOSE HOURS TO A NICE PEACEFUL SPO LIKE THIS. I DON'T KNOW. A LESS HECTIC LIFE WOULD NEVER HURT ANYBODY. EXCUSE ME, I'LL BE RIGHT BACK. JUST ONE SECOND. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, JASON, READ THE ROOM. WHAT? [SIGHS] [MUTTERING] YOU WANT ME TO SAY YOU'RE HAVING AN EARLY NIGHT? NO. I THINK THEY'D UNDERSTAND. YOU KNOW, MAYBE WE SHOULD JUST TELL THEM. TELL THEM? I DON'T WANT A PITY PARTY. JASON? YOU MIGHT AS WELL SEND OUT A PRESS RELEASE. WHAT'S HAPPENING TO MY LIFE? I'M GOING TO FADE AWAY, AND YOU'RE ALL JUST GOING TO GO ON WITHOUT ME. I WON'T. YES, HONEY, YOU WILL. I AM SO SORRY. MY HUSBAND-- BLESS HIS HEART, I LOVE HIM TO DEATH, BUT HE'S GOT THE EMOTIONAL SENSITIVITY OF A WALNUT. YOU KNOW, I KNEW THERE'D BE A CHANGE. I JUST-- I DIDN'T EXPECT THIS. IS SHE OKAY? YOU KNOW, SH-- IT'S BEEN HARD SINCE THE MOVE. AND... -EVA? -SH-- OKAY, WHOA-WHOA-WHOA, EVA. IF THERE'S SOMETHING GOING ON WITH LAINEY, IT'S GOING ON WITH YOU, TOO. AND WHETHER OR NO SHE WANTS TO TALK ABOUT IT, YOU MIGHT, AND YOU HAVE A SAY. HONEY, WHAT'S GOING ON? THERE SHE IS. I WAS JUST SAYING HOW GREAT I IS WITH YOU GUYS HERE AND MY PARENTS FURTHER UP THE COAST, AND THEY'RE AT THAT AGE. I'M GOING TO BE DRIVING BY A LOT. WELL, THANKS FOR COMING BY AND CHECKING ON YOUR LADY HERE. ABSOLUTELY. ONE MORE TIME, GIVE ME A HUG. -OH, YEAH. -I MISS YOU. OH, MISS YOU. OH, MAN, IT WAS A PLEASURE TO LOVE YOU AND HATE YOU AND FIGHT WITH YOU FOR THE LAST 20 YEARS. AND I'M GLAD TO LEAVE YOU IN THIS BEAUTIFUL PLACE WITH, OF COURSE, THIS BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. -GIVE ME A HUG. -OH. SHE WAS A NIGHTMARE BEFORE SHE MET YOU. -I'M JUST SAYING. -[EVA LAUGHING] -BYE, HONEY. -BYE. THANK YOU SO MUCH. THIS WAS REALLY LOVELY. -I'LL SEE YOU SOON. -OKAY. -OKAY. TAKE ME HOME. -ALL RIGHT. TAKE ME HOME. -SAFE TRAVELS. -[VAL] BYE, EVERYONE. YOU TOLD HER. LAINEY, I'M SORRY. I'M REALLY SORRY. I JUST NEEDED TO TALK TO SOMEONE. I'M TRYING REALLY HARD TO APPRECIATE EVERY SECOND WITH YOU. BUT I CAN'T HELP IT. YOU KNOW, I-I-- I CAN'T HELP THINKING ABOU ONE DAY LOOKING IN YOUR EYES AND-- AND YOU'LL BE GONE. SO HOW DO WE DO THAT? HOW DO WE-- HOW DO WE NOT LIVE LIKE WE'RE JUST WAITING FOR YOU TO DISAPPEAR? I DON'T KNOW, 'CAUSE IT'S EXACTLY WHAT WE'RE DOING, RIGHT? -WHERE ARE YOU GOING? -YOU KNOW WHAT? YOU'RE RIGHT. THAT'S WHAT THIS IS. WE BOTH DON'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH THAT. YOU CERTAINLY DON'T HAVE TO GO THROUGH THAT. -OH, MY GOD. -I SHOULD JUST PACK MY THINGS WHILE I STILL CAN. I SHOULD JUST TELL YOU NOT TO FEEL GUILTY -WHILE I STILL CAN. -DON'T DO THAT. THAT IS NOT WHAT I WANT, BUT I NEED TO TELL HOW I FEEL, AND I HAVE TO TELL YOU WHEN IT'S HARD. YOU DON'T THINK THAT I KNOW THAT THIS IS HARD? OF COURSE YOU KNOW. AND YOU KNOW I LOVE YOU, BUT I STILL TELL YOU. I J-- I-- I AM-- I'M SCARED. WHAT WAS YOUR PLAN? TO JUST NEVER TALK ABOUT THIS? ABOUT ALL OF THE THINGS THAT ARE GOING TO HAPPEN? -IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT? -THAT'S WHAT I WANT. I WANT THIS THING TO SWALLOW ME UP WHOLE WITHOUT DISCUSSING I EVERY 15 MINUTES AND HOW IT'S GOING TO FEEL FOR BOTH OF US. THAT'S GOOD. THANK YOU. SHE HAS ALZHEIMER'S. HOW DO YOU KNOW? HAL STOPPED BEING ABLE TO WRITE, TOO. HE'D LEAVE ME NOTE, AND HE'D THINK IT MADE PERFECT SENSE, BUT THEY WEREN'T LETTERS ANYMORE. AND SHE LEFT THE "VALLEY." SHE WAS VIVIAN. SHE NEVER WOULD'VE LEF IF SHE DIDN'T HAVE TO. WELL, THIS IS FAMILIAR, BUT I THINK YOU SHOULD BE NAKED. SO SHOULD YOU. I COULD HANDLE BEING BANISHED FROM EDEN IF I WAS WITH YOU. THAT'S BECAUSE WE CAN HANDLE ANYTHING. WE WOULDN'T BE ANY GOOD AT POPULATING THE EARTH. WELL, EVEN IF WE COULD, HALF OF THEM WOULD BE DEMENTED BY THE TIME THEY WERE 50. I'M SORRY. I WAS BEING SELFISH. I DON'T WANT PEOPLE TO KNOW, BUT MAYBE YOU NEED THEM TO KNOW. SOMETIMES I THINK IT WOULD JUST BE EASIER IF I TOOK A LITTLE WALK OUT INTO THE PACIFIC. DON'T SAY THAT. PUT ONE OF THOSE BIG RED THINGS IN MY POCKET. NO, HONEY, YOU NEED SOMETHING HEAVIER THAN A POMEGRANATE. SEE, YOU HAVE TO WANT IT TO END. I DON'T WANT IT TO END. I WOULD SEE YOUR BEAUTIFUL FACE, AND MY LEGS WOULD JUST START KICKING. [CHUCKLES] SO HERE'S THE PART WHERE I SHOULD TELL YOU THA WHEN THE TIME COMES, YOU SHOULD FIND SOMEONE TO MAKE YOU HAPPY. BUT THEN YOU WOULD KNOW THERE WAS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH ME. YEAH. NO, I KNOW WHAT TO DO. CLUTCH A ROSARY AND WEAR A BLACK VEIL FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. THE FEWER PEOPLE TO SEE THA FACE, THE BETTER, THANK YOU. THERE'S JUST SO MUCH I WANT TO DO. THE TIME WE HAVE LEF CAN STILL MEAN SOMETHING. THAT IS SO BEAUTIFUL. DID YOU READ THA IN A GREETING CARD? YES, THE ALZHEIMER'S SECTION OF THE DRUGSTORE, -SMARTASS. -OH. WHAT I MEANT TO SAY WAS THAT I HAVE TO BELIEVE THAT YOU CAN STILL FEEL HAPPY EVEN IF YOU DON' REMEMBER WHY. SO WE DEVOTE OURSELVES TO A HAPPY NOW. A MILLION OF THEM. OKAY, I'VE NEVER HAD ONE OF THOSE APPLES ON A STICK. LIKE A CARAMEL APPLE? -IS THAT WHAT THEY CALL THEM? -YEAH. YEAH, I-- OKAY. WELL, TAKE IT EASY. I'M NOT A MAGICIAN. WHAT ELSE? I THINK YOU SHOULD GE A TATTOO OF MY FACE. -RIGHT... -ABOUT HERE. YEAH. I FEEL LIKE I SHOULD EXPLAIN TO YOU WHAT A BUCKET LIST IS. IT IS NOT A LIST OF THINGS YOU MAKE OTHER PEOPLE DO. THAT DOESN'T SEEM RIGHT. YEAH. [SOFT MUSIC PLAYING] OKAY. HERE WE GO. A VERY SMALL BITE... [LAUGHING] YEAH. IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME COMING I'VE BEEN A LONG TIME RUNNING FROM MYSELF -[CHATTERING] - THOSE DEMONS IN MY SOUL [SQUEALING] ALL I WANTED WAS SOME TIME TO MAYBE CHANGE YOUR LONELY MIND BUT THERE ARE THINGS THAT EVEN I CAN'T CONTROL I NEVER WAS THE BES AT MOVING ON ALL THIS TIME I'VE JUST BEEN TRYING TO GET ALONG KEEP MY SPIRITS STRONG STILL I'M HOLDING ON TO YOU ISN'T IT WEIRD...

I'M SUPER SMART, LIKE, ESPECIALLY RIGHT NOW. EXTRA... [CHATTERING] IT'S NOT WHAT I WANT, BUT EVERYONE WE'VE SPOKEN TO SAYS WE NEED TO DO THIS SOONER RATHER THAN LATER. IT'S NOT LIKE YOU TO BE SO DEFEATIST. YOU KNOW, WITHOUT THIS I AM NO ONE. GOOD MORNING. COFFEE AND A MUFFIN. GIVE ME A SEC. IS IT TRUE THAT LAINEY ALLEN LIVES AROUND HERE? I DON'T HAVE ANY COFFEE OR MUFFINS. YOU MIGHT DO BETTER SOMEWHERE ELSE. GREAT. MAYBE YOU WILL TOMORROW. OH, MY LORD. THE TRUTH IS BETTER THAN THIS. YES. WELL, HAL WOULDN' LET ME TELL ANYONE FOR THE FIRST SIX MONTHS. IT WAS HIS PRIDE. I MEAN, HE WAS SUCH A GOOD PERSON, AND I THINK-- I THINK YOU WOULD'VE REALLY LIKED HIM BEFORE.

THERE ISN'T A MOMEN THAT GOES BY THAT I'M NOT GRATEFUL TO BE LOVED BY HER.
