Erasing Eden

1

- Hello, would

you like to leave a message?

- Eden's daily message.

One.

No.

Scratch that.

Eden's daily message.

All right, so, I am

getting married tomorrow.

I'm staying with my

future mother in law.

I just want to remind myself

that I self sabotage

and that I deserve to be happy.

It's okay.

It's okay to have

good sh*t happen.

It's okay to be happy, you know.

- No.

- Eden, stand up.

Girl, what are you doing?

- Getting married tomorrow.

- Pull your skirt

down, your ass is showing.

- Do it.

- How much did you drink?

You in a total black out.

Don't get in that car.

Eden.

Eden.

- F***.

- Hey baby, I know I'm not

supposed to talk to you

on the day of the wedding,

but just gimme a call back.

I just wanna see when

you're gonna get here.

- Hello, would

you like to leave a message?

- Hey Eden, it's me again.

Remember when I

told you to fake it?

I lied.

This isn't you,

and you're a fraud.

So quit lying to yourself,

and do what you want.

- No, please, stop, no.

No!

- Thank you.

- Thanks a lot.

- Hello.

I think you're

just imaging stuff.

She's probably just really

busy with this wedding.

I wouldn't worry about it, man.

- You really haven't

talked to her?

- Mm-mmm.

- She knew you'd be worried,

and she told me to tell you

that she's focusing on

getting ready today.

- You're the bridesmaid, so

I thought she'd be with you.

Is there anyone else

you can think of

that she may have

gotten in contact with?

- Not really.

She told me she wanted to

go to her own hairdresser,

to focus on myself

today, and not to worry.

- Hello, would

you like to leave a message?

- Hey, Eden, this is

a daily message to yourself.

You're getting married tomorrow,

and you are gonna

stand at the alter

and make a promise

that you don't know

if you can keep.

- Are you all right?

Are you okay?

I'm sorry.

I'm gonna make a

call, don't worry.

Hey.

We got another one of those

meth heads in here again.

This one looks

beat up pretty bad.

I don't wanna bother

you all the time.

F***.

But I think you

should come out here.

All right, let's

just go outside.

Go, all right, outside.

I'll come help you

in a minute, okay.

Please, just have a seat.

- My husband lost his job.

- Expecting a lot of people.

Do you want something to drink?

Just sit outside

for a second, okay.

- You been drinkin'?

Oh.

You been drinkin'.

What do you call me for this?

You should've called

pd or an ambulance.

Oh she has a

freakin' head wound.

Oh that's great, you

didn't tell me that.

Technically she's

outside my jurisdiction.

Okay, but since your friend

here has a freakin' head wound,

now I am obligated.

Well, I'm not touchin' her, so,

you gotta put her in the car.

I'm tellin' ya she stinks,

put her in the car.

I am not touchin' her.

Take her and put her in the car.

Come on, boy.

How are you doin' today?

I'm sergeant berg.

- You wanna do it yourself?

You wanna get there by yourself?

- You have really cute hands.

Where do you have

your nails done?

Thank you so much.

Martha.

- Copy, sheriff, go ahead.

- Martha, can you tell Pete

to go wait in my office?

I'm gonna be back

around noon, okay.

I got something I gotta do.

- All right, will do.

- I appreciate it.

Thank you.

Why don't you just relax

and sit back there, all right?

Please.

God, oh sh*t.

Oh god.

Okay, come on now.

Move your leg in the car now.

That's right.

Okay, all right.

Jesus Christ.

- She still hasn't called.

- You know, everything's okay.

- Do you think

she's with someone?

- Like it's your birthday party

when your mom ripped

her panties off

and tried to sit on

uncle Rick's face?

Like that?

Is that what you mean?

I'm sure everything's fine.

- hey man, I'm

lookin' for my girl.

Was she here today?

- She missed her appointment.

- Seriously?

- She usually

calls me to let me know

that she won't be here,

but I haven't heard anything.

I'm sure she'll call.

- You're sure you want

me to leave you here?

Is that what you want?

Because if you want,

I can stay with you

or I can take you

somewhere else.

You want me to leave you here?

All right, you have the right

to refuse my assistance.

Have a nice day.

- You's a hot mess, ain't you?

Damn, you feel hot.

C'mere.

Oh, come here, girl.

Come on, sweetie,

come on sweetie.

Here we go.

Wee!

Gear shift.

Shift it.

Shift nice.

- Oh, you know, you know it.

You know it.

Oh, I gotta go.

What the hell?

- No one was helping her.

- Seriously?

- It damn Skippy.

- Name?

- Eden...

- Oh.

Come on.

Okay, honey, I really need

to get your blood pressure.

Keep still for me.

You know I'm meeting

somebody in the cafeteria.

I'm leaving early today.

You knew that.

- Oh, come on in.

Doctors are back from lunch.

- It's less than six

hours before the wedding.

What is going on here?

- Nothing.

- This does not

look like nothing.

What is it?

Christopher, what happened?

- Mom, I called her school,

and I called her BFF,

and I've called what's

left of her family.

Dad, can you please do

something about mom?

- No, I gotta deal with this.

Went to Eden's house, she

never came home last night.

- So she started drinking again?

- Dude, are

you f***ing kidding me?

Do you think he knows?

- Oh, did you

contact the police?

- Yeah, can't

file a missing person's report

for 24 hours.

- You're kidding me, right?
