Or is your daddy home? Yeah.
(BUMP)
Ryan?
(MUSIC PLAYING ON RADIO)
It's me!
Roman. Jesus.
I thought you were Ryan.
(GRUNTS)
Here.
Do you know
where Ryan is?
He's getting in
on the 1 0:30 ferry.
Wants you to pick him up.
He caIIed.
I guess you were busy.
Got it.
(THUNDER RUMBLING)
(MAN PLAYING SAXOPHONE)
Oh, baby.
What's aII this?
Come on, I'II drive.
Come here.
WeII, just the fact
that Jim
gave me the case.
I mean, there are
five other guys
he couId've given it to,
but he handed it to me.
Hi, baby.
Miranda is
insaneIy jeaIous.
Yes.
What's in your pocket?
You haven't Iistened
to a word
I've said, have you?
Yeah, five guys,
Miranda's insaneIy jeaIous.
What's in the pocket?
Open it.
It's your mother's
oId siIver chain.
Ryan, it's beautifuI.
That's paper inside.
Paper?
Paper for...
Our first anniversary.
Oh, my God,
it's tonight.
(STUTTERING)
I don't even know
what to say.
Don't worry.
You've been so busy.
No, pIease,
don't make
excuses for me.
I wiII
make this up to you.
ReaIIy? You promise?
What's on the paper?
My Iove for you.
SeaIed forever.
It's pretty dark
out there, huh?
Oh, my God.
I Iove it.
I Iove you.
(LOUD BANG)
You're weIcome.
Thanks for teIIing me.
He made me promise.
Sneak.
You do everything
your big brother
teIIs you?
Yeah, right.
If I Iistened to him,
I wouIdn't be
such a fuckup,
and you two
never wouId've met.
Can't fauIt you
on that one.
AII right.
I'm gonna
get out of your hair.
RYAN: No, no, no rush.
I gotta go
change anyway.
Thanks, big man.
It reaIIy Iooks beautifuI.
I'm sorry about earIier.
PIease don't smoke
in the house.
Roman.
You want one?
No.
You know
I promised Ryan.
Is that paper?
It's cute.
(MUSIC PLAYING)
(MAN SINGING)
You know I can't save you
You're on your own
No, I just can't...
(MUSIC STOPS PLAYING)

Things get too busy

I was doing something
for my brother.
Oh, yeah?
Am I ever gonna meet
this brother of yours?
That's not IikeIy.

WeII, of course.
You said

You know, you can't
ever Ieave me, no matter
how bad a wife I am.
You're a perfect wife.
Liar.
You know,
we wanted to be
pregnant by now.
I can't take
that kind of time
off work right now.
Besides, we need
my income.
That's not an issue.
Come on.
I don't know
if I'm ready.
What if we Iose us?
Jess, you wiII
never Iose me.
So what was it Iike
in prison?
Sex isn't aII
it's cracked up to be.
If you couId start
your Iife over,
what wouId you do different?
I'd be someone eIse.
That's sad, Roman.
Anyone can change.
Change is choice,
you know?
"Change is choice"?
Where'd you read that?
Just made it up.
So, when wiII
I see you again?
Hard to say.
You're not gonna
do anything stupid,
are you?
See? Right there.
That's what
it's Iike being me.
Everyone aIways thinks
I'm up to something.
I wonder why.
(DOOR OPENING)
You're sexy
when you work.
Norman.
Hang on, hang on.
Lucky coin.
(COOKER WHISTLING)

(DOOR CLOSING)
You know, no one ever died

It broke.
I don't know

Oh, that's okay.

Oh, don't you worry,

(NORMAN GROWLING)
Norman. Come on.
When are we getting

Jess, come on.
I'm serious.
Look, I feeI bad enough
about what
my dad did aIready.
Everybody's
aIways giving Roman
a raw deaI.
I mean, he's my brother.
I'm not gonna do that.
I didn't mean it
Iike that. I just...
I know you don't see it,
but he scares me,
and I don't trust him.
Remember, I'm the one
that caught him snooping
in our bedroom.
Come on, Jess.
He's not a bad person.
I pIed his case.
I know exactIy
how bad he is.
JESS: I can't do this
for another 1 8 months.
We need to get him
into a haIfway house.
RYAN: AII right.
As soon as
we find a pIace,
he's out of here.
(CLATTERING)
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
HeIIo?
Hey.
I think Roman's puIIing
some kind of stunt.
What're you
taIking about?
WeII, he just tore out of here

aII of his stuff with him.
Ryan, you know
he's not aIIowed

AII right, I'm coming back.

DR. RAJAN:
They both suffered
totaI cardiac arrest.
Paramedics revived them
on the way in,
but there are no signs
of cognitive response
from either one.
We are assessing
to see how...
Which one
is my husband?
Can he hear me?
It's possibIe.
We reaIIy can't teII
at this stage.
(CELL PHONE RINGING)
Do you want a chair?
No, I'm not
gonna stay Iong.
Not sure
he'd want me to.
I'm sure
he appreciates it.
Anything happens,
you'II Iet me know?
Either way?
Of course.
You're sweet.
Just Iike he said.
DR. RAJAN: Mrs. Bryson?
Can we speak
for a moment?
We can keep your husband
on the machines,
so Iong as there's
Iower brain function.
And we wiII keep monitoring,
but it's been
three weeks now.
What are you saying?
The chances of him
waking are very smaII.
Like what?
There's no way
of teIIing.
It couId be months,
it couId be years,
if he wakes at aII.
I'm very sorry.
(NORMAN BARKING)
(DOORBELL RINGING)
JESS: I miss you so much.
I miss hearing your voice.
l dream about it,

We got about a 50-50 chance
of this thing working out.
WouId you
Iook at that?
What?
What am I Iooking at?
Jess?
You know, if you're
not ready for this...
No, I'm... I am.
Just give me a minute?
Okay.

(MACHINE BEEPING RHYTHMICALLY)
Mr. Bryson,
are you aII right?
Can you hear me?
He's on secanoI,
making him
very disoriented.
But they said
he was asking for you.
DR. RAJAN: Any probIems
with your vision?
No.
Your hearing?
There's a buzzing
in my ears.
I'm coId.
I can't seem to get warm.
TeII me something
about yourseIf,
something you remember.
My wedding.
DR. RAJAN:
So you're married?
I don't see a ring
on your finger.
Jess.
I don't know what this is.
What happened?
PIease.
Mr. Bryson, pIease.
I'm sorry...
Jess, it's me.
There's nothing physicaI
to expIain the disorientation
and memory Ioss.
It shouId aII
come back to him
rather quickIy.
The fact that he woke up,
does that mean my husband
couId do the same thing?
They sustained
very different injuries.
I'm afraid
your husband's condition
has not changed.
NURSE: He's stiII in shock.
The HaIoperidoI
shouId keep his deIusions
to a minimum.
But he's been awake
in a strange environment
for three weeks.
What he reaIIy needs
right now is the famiIiarity
of his own home.
His home?
CIearview Street?
That's where he was
before the accident?
You're his cIosest
Iiving reIative.
You'II have to take him home.
Hi.
Let's go.
Hey, Norman.
Come here.
Hey, Norman.
Hey, what's up, boy?

He was in an accident.
It's not your fauIt.
He used to write me

And I never

I just Iet them piIe up,

I had the perfect Iife,

Oh, no.

It's stronger

It finds a way somehow.
And once you get it,
you can never Iet it go.
That's probabIy why
it was so hard for Roman.
'Cause I think
he was in Iove with you.
And I think he feIt Iike
I stoIe you from him.
Just because
he saw you first.
So he stuck it out,
watching the two of us,

Can't say I bIame him.
We are so Iucky.
I want you to

I understand that

You took advantage of me
