Programa de TV: South of Nowhere - 2x8
So, you guys weren't supposed to be home so early.
So just don't be surprised if they weren't expecting you.
Oh my God.
Oh my God!
Get out of my house!
Let go of me!
Let go of me!
You are out of here, go!
Mom!
Stop, please!
Paula, stop it!
Come one!
Can't you see what's happening?
Daddy, I love her!
It's gonna be okay.
No, it's not!
I just want to be with her.
I'm so sorry.
Why are you doing this?
Get out of my house!
You disgust me!
I hate you!
I can't eat this.
Force yourself, honey.
The smell only makes me wanna puke!
Why don't you try taking deep breaths, son.
It's the withdrawal effects.
They'll go away in a couple of days.
How many?
Well, enough that you realize how much damage those pills have done to your body.
And as the dopamine level wells up, don't be surprised if you feel a little depressed over the next few days, okay?
I just don't know how I got myself into this.
It's okay!
We're gonna get you better.
Good morning, Clay.
Good morning.
We're late for school.
Hey, listen.
Tough it up as long as you can but if it gets to be too much, you come on home.
Good morning.
Good morning!
We should probably get going.
Spencer, wait!
You're staying home, today.
What?
What?
I don't want you seeing Ashley which means until we figure this all out, you're not going to school.
Yes, she is!
Mom!
No, she is not!
And I'm not going to work, either.
You two, go!
Paula, why are you doing this?
Mom!
Because I love you, Spencer.
You're sick!
I'm sick?
And I wannna help you.
Mom, Glen was so addicted to pain killers that he wound up in jail.
And I am the one who has to get better?
Give me a sec with your mother.
I'll be right there, honey.
Why are you doing this, Paula?
I'm trying to help our daughter!
Well, you're pushing her away.
You know we're gonna lose her?
Open your eyes, Arthur!
We already have.
I knew you'd be here.
Imagining that's Kyla?
I'm not into hitting girls.
What, have you talked to her?
Nope.
She hasn't called and I sure as hell am not calling her.
Look, I didn't mean to spill some secret.
I just figured she'd told you about her ex.
Yeah, well she didn't.
And considering she just went to spend the week-end with him, I don't really think he's an ex.
I'm sorry.
Don't be.
I learnt my lesson.
What does that mean?
I'm done with it.
With what?
Girls.
From here on now, I'm going straight for women!
They know what they want, they don't play games.
And did I mention "MILF"?
It's my new favorite four-letter word!
So, goodbye Kyla?
Goodbye, Kyla!
Her loss!
Hey, have you heard from Spencer today?
No, why?
Can you give us a sec?
Fine!
You and I will finish this conversation later.
Spencer's mom walked in on us.
She kicked me out of the house and now Spencer isn't even answering her cell.
Why does this hurt so much?
I don't know.
But I do know something that might help.
What?
Pretend this is Paula.
Wow, wild thing!
It's either you or the bag, so put it back.
What's up?
It's all falling apart.
Could you be more specific?
Okay.
My brother's picked in at drug habit, my mom's freaked out after walking in on my sister and her girlfriend and then Chelsea is...
She won't talk to me.
Right.
Well, relationships can be tough.
She may be thinking about going to art school.
She's got a lot to think about, so let it be!
She's pregnant, Sean.
What?
I'm sorry.
Can you believe this?
The first time I have sex, I get a girl pregnant?
Now wouldn't be a good time to talk about using condoms, huh?
Okay!
okay.
It's not funny.
Spencer?
In here.
I wanted to tell you.
I...
I was going to.
It just It wasn't supposed to happen like this.
You don't hate me, right?
No, of course I don't hate you!
I love you!
And I'll never stop.
Ever.
Mom's already stopped.
No, she hasn't.
Your mom is just afraid.
We'll get through this, I promise.
What if we don't?
That's not an option.
Okay?
Stacy, we'll be there in about 15 minutes.
How is she?
More upset than I've ever seen her.
Why aren't you talking to her, Paula?
Because I don't want to say anything to her that I will regret.
I think it's too late for that.
We need to talk this out.
I agree.
I think we should consult a specialist.
A specialist?
In what?
In turning her back.
In saving her.
Save her from what?
It's not natural, Arthur, what she's doing.
According to who?
According to God!
According to the type of people that will judge her and hate her.
Like you.
I'm gonna take Glen to his rehab counselor.
We'll finish this when I get back.
'Hi, this is Cecily, Leave a message.
' Cecily, hi!
It's Clay.
I just thought we could get together.
I'd really like to talk to you.
I mean, if you're around, you know?
Call me.
Please.
I don't feel well.
I think I'm gonna...
I'm gonna die!
You're not gonna die.
Just kill me!
Okay.
Okay?
Yeah, do you want me to use a gun, knife, Chinese water torture or what?
Very funny, dad!
You've already made it through the toughest part: admitting you've got a problem.
Thanks.
For being there for me.
Wait until Rhonda gives you an electroshock therapy before you thank me.
What?
I'm kidding.
Come on!
I wanna see Spencer.
Well, I'm afraid that's not gonna happen.
Really?
Spencer!
Ashley, you're not welcome in my home, so just go.
Don't you want her to be happy?
Doesn't she deserve that?
Right.
No, I'm not leaving!
I will stay here night and day if I have to but I'm not going anywhere.
Great!
Then I'll have you arrested.
Spencer, please!
Let's just leave.
Spencer, you are not going anywhere.
Mom, stop it!
You can try to keep her away from me but you cannot keep me away from her, Paula!
Watch me.
Hello!
Hi, Mrs.
Carlin?
Yes.
I'm Crawford Taylor.
Hi, Mr.
Taylor.
Please come in.
You must be Spencer.
I'm here to get you through this.
Get you back to a normal lifestyle.
What?
Goodbye, Ashley!
Mom, stop!
This is probably the worst day of your life.
I don't know.
The other night sucked, too, when mom walked in.
You know, I've had a lot of experience in this area.
And I've helped a lot of people in your condition.
What condition?
Being in love with a girl, or having a mother that just can't accept that?
Spencer, I just want you to have the best life you can.
Your mother was crying when she called me on the phone.
Spencer, she does love you.
She just doesn't understand your choice.
Love?
Love is unconditional.
It's not something you feel for someone only when they act the way that you want them to.
True.
And is your love for Ashley unconditional?
Yes.
So, did hydrocodeine turn you on?
Kind of the opposite, actually.
How many pills do you think you were up to a day?
Ten?
A dozen?
Do you miss it?
What?
The high?
Did you really even get the high in the end or were you just not getting so low?
Is there even really a difference?
Yeah.
I'm guessing this is the first time you've ever dealt with addiction.
Which is a good thing.
So, she is the first girl you've ever dated?
Yeah.
Right when you moved out here?
What are you getting at?
Paula, you moved down here for a job, right?
That's right.
I'm an emergency room surgeon at County.
Late days, long nights.
Yes.
More active than it was back in Ohio, then?
I admit I've been a bit absent.
A bit?
Understandable.
You know, a lot of girls, when they feel their mother have abandoned them put them on the back-burner.
They turn to another girl for that maternal support.
Maternal?
You so don't know Ashley!
Are you saying this is my fault?
All I'm saying is, experience shows us that it's more layered than we can imagine.
Spencer, if you're doing this to get back at me...
Mom, why can't you just accept that this is who I am?
Because who you are is not acceptable!
Ashley is a predator who exploited your emotions when you were most vulnerable.
Yeah, kind of what my mom is doing now!
What you’re doing right now is impressive.
It's tough to kick an addiction.
But if you keep coming here 3 times a week I think we can make it happen.
I'm in.
Easier to say, harder to do.
Just remember two important things every time you feel you wanna get high: One: breathe!
The moment will pass if you're strong enough to pass through it.
So one day at a time, right?
More like: one minute at a time.
Two: take all that energy you found for those pills, put it somewhere else!
Learn to surf, join a band.
Run a marathon, that's what worked for me.
It'll help.
Oh, another text from Kyla!
Can you believe this?
Text her back.
Tell her you're moving on to older women.
No!
I'm just keeping that between me and you.
Our little secret?
I like it!
Let me handle those few orders.
I will be right back.
It's over!
What happened?
Her mom wouldn't even let her out the house.
I went over there, and some brain-washer she hired showed up the street in her alley.
Are you kidding me?
I need her.
Look, Spencer loves you, all right?
And nobody can change that.
Her mom is just freaking out.
Give it some time, it will calm down.
God, you can be so stupid, sometimes.
What do you want me to say, Ashley?
That you should kidnap her?
God, you can be so smart, sometimes!
What I'm saying is, you've got to look at the bigger picture.
Is this who you want to be?
10 years down the road, what kind of life do you want to have?
Have you thought about that at all?
I'm hungry.
You?
Yeah!
Hey, Clay!
How was it?
It was intense, but good.
Clay, who's that with Spencer and mom?
Some counselor, I think.
What the hell?
Excuse me, who is this?
Hi, M.
Carlin!
I'm Crawford Taylor.
I specialize in reparative sexual therapy.
Get out of my house.
Arthur...
You invite this person into our home without even telling me?
Are you completely out of your mind?
Spencer, you don't have to sit through this anymore.
Arthur, she was finally considering what her life would be...
You want to be in a therapy?
Fine.
Then it's all of us!
In an office, at an appointed time that we all know about.
Can I say just one thing?
That is "one thing".
Now leave my house before I throw you out.
Okay.
Arthur!
I just want us to be okay!
As a family!
What the hell did he forget?
Can I help you?
Yeah, I'm looking for Clay Carlin?
And you are?
I'm Cecily Jordan.
His mother?
That's my girlfriend, Chelsea.
Oh, she's beautiful!
Thank you!
For letting me stay.
I wanted to see where you lived, I wanted to see your family.
I wanted to see the life you got to have.
You could have picked a better day to see us in action.
Even the best of families have the worst of times.
Did you get that from a fortune cookie or something?
No, a bumper sticker!
So, you wanted to talk about?...
Yes.
It's my girlfriend.
I...
She and I...
She's pregnant.
She's...?
How could you let that happen?
You, a child of that very situation!
I know!
We got carried away!
Aren't you supposed to be smart?
This was my life!
It was not supposed to be yours!
That's why...
Do you love her?
Yes, a lot.
Oh, honey!
I know.
I'm sorry, I shouldn't have called you.
Maybe not.
I guess I thought, since you've been through this before, maybe...
Hey!
I can't tell you two what to do, Clay, okay, if that's what you're looking for?
I just got lucky.
Do you know that?
Lucky!
And so did you!
Yeah.
Yeah, lucky!
Yes!
And Chelsea is lucky to be in this situation with someone who loves her!
I didn't have that.
You make the choice you make.
You and her together.
She won't talk to me.
Not now.
But you'll fix that!
It's open!
Cecily, would you care to join us for dinner?
If it's okay with Clay?
Wonderful.
Thank you!
Spence!
Do you remember when you were 6, and we went to the Cuyahoga county fair?
And that little boy took your cotton candy and wrapped it in your hair?
Yeah.
And you started crying.
And you said: why is that boy being so mean to me?
And I told you: because he likes you.
I miss that little girl!
I'm not a little girl anymore.
I'm just afraid.
All the dreams I had for you.
A wedding, kids...
Family vacations with us.
That all just disappeared.
Your dreams for me.
What about my dreams?
I just want what's best for you!
Fine!
It's Ashley!
No!
Spencer, you're 16!
No, you have no idea what it's like for people who make that choice.
And I don't now if it's a life that I can be part of.
'We're running away!
'
So just don't be surprised if they weren't expecting you.
Oh my God.
Oh my God!
Get out of my house!
Let go of me!
Let go of me!
You are out of here, go!
Mom!
Stop, please!
Paula, stop it!
Come one!
Can't you see what's happening?
Daddy, I love her!
It's gonna be okay.
No, it's not!
I just want to be with her.
I'm so sorry.
