if it's my liver

and-- and i--

I need meds.

Something that can

keep me off the booze

for a little while.

I-- i-- I see things

that don't exist

and i-- the pain

doesn't stop.

I--

hurt myself, I don't--

i don't know in, I just--

-stay calm.

-But I can't live

like this anymore, okay?

Okay, don't do

anything stupid.

I'm gonna come and see you

after I finish up, okay?

I-- i-- I won't.

-Promise?

-Yeah, yeah, I promise

I promise. Yeah, yeah, yeah...

Yes, yes.

Can you please check

if this is correct?

And...

-Hey, Hannah.

-Hey.

Did Trevor leave you,

by any chance,

the keys

to the dispensary?

No, I have mine.

Do you need them?

Well, I have to submit

the meds inventory

to the board before lunch

and I had a little setback.

Mm-hmm.

Just hurry up, okay?

And bring them back

when you're done.

You're welcome.

-And now this one.

-Thanks.

What the f***

are you doing, Claire?

Stay out of this.

You didn't see me here.

Stealing

medication now?

Look, I'm warning you

right now, put it back.

--I said, put it back.

Don't you ever

touch me.

Claire-- I'm-- I'm gonna

tell the board about this.

You can consider

yourself fired.

Do you know

what happens here

when people get reported

for sexual harassment?

-You're a psycho b*tch.

-I know.

So how are you feeling?

Are you still in pain?

Yes.

Can you show me

where it hurts?

What kind of hallucinations

are you having?

None.

You told me

on the phone

that you were having

hallucinations.

No hallucinations

whatsoever.

Well, maybe...

I should

take these back

to the clinic then.

Give me those.

First you tell me

what you see.

First you give me

those f***ing pills.

Listen, I know

what is happening to you.

It's my job.

When you stop drinking

at your level of addiction

it can be

very dangerous.

No, stop!

No!

Don't do it.

When was the last time

you used alcohol?

If it hasn't been

at least eight hours

those anti-psychotics

could kill you.

Goddamn it.

F***ing b*tch.

Stop!

No!

No!

--Bullshit. Answer me.

--Stop!

Stop.

I never-- I never

wanted to scare you.

Okay?

You understand?

And I wouldn't

ever think

about hurting you, okay?

-Okay.

-All right,

so can we just--

can we work on this

together, okay?

You wanna--

you wanna help me,

right?

I- I don't even

know your name.

Okay, so, here's

what we're gonna do.

Okay, we're just gonna--

we're just gonna talk

like two good friends,

all right?

The fact is,

i do see things

that don't exist.

And I need those drugs,

but I don't think

i can stay sober

for eight hours.

-You follow me?

-Mmm.

I tried to stay clean.

I'd count the hours,

but I just can't do it.

That's why you have
