- He's the problem, not me.

- That's right, girl. Stand your ground.

Make him respect you.

If there's one thing

a man understands...

It's respect. That's the issue. That's

the reason our marriage is failing.

She shows me no respect at all.

And the saddest part about it is...

He doesn't have a clue.

He thinks our marriage

has been fine for the most part.

You know, he probably thinks...

Our marriage has been fine

until this year.

Now, all of a sudden,

she goes off the deep end.

Do you think this happened

all of a sudden?

I don't know what to think.

I don't understand her.

She's emotional about everything.

She's easily offended

and way too sensitive.

I mean, he's so insensitive,

you know?

He doesn't truly care how I feel.

He doesn't listen to me.

Even if I say it over

and over and over again.

And then she starts nagging me

and saying I don't listen to her...

...or something like that.

It drives me crazy.

I feel like I'm going...

Insane.

You know,

he doesn't understand my needs.

I feel like we are

completely and totally...

Incompatible.

She's probably whining to her friends,

making me sound like a criminal.

I can see them all right now, crying,

having some sort of group hug.

It's gonna be okay, sweetie.

It's gonna be all right.

You'll get through this.

We have your back.

Whatever you need.

Whatever you need.

So you think

it's past the point of no return?

I don't have a reason to return.

- Bethany.

- Hey, Kyle. Hey, Ross.

- What's going on?

- What are y'all doing?

We're heading to the pizza barn

to meet friends.

Y'all wanna come?

Sure.

Hey, we'll race you there.

And if you win, we'll buy.

Ready, set...

Go, go, go.

Hey, Dad.

No, not really.

I think Catherine and I are done.

No, it's over.

She said she wants out.

Sure, yeah, you can come over

tomorrow. I'll be home.

Dad, I gotta go.

Public Safety

to Engine 1, Battalion 1.

Respond to the intersection of

Roosevelt and Kelley, 10-50-I rescue.

Okay, let's roll.

Engine 1 is en route

to Roosevelt and Kelley, 10-50 rescue.

10-4, Engine 1.

Lieutenant, you and Sanders have

the Hurst tools ready if we need them.

- You stay with me when we pull up.

- Yes, sir.

We've already got a crowd.

- Can you see it?

- We've got one car on the tracks.

You're kidding me.

Oh, it doesn't look good.

Engine 1, it's 10-23.

We have a two-vehicle accident

with possible entrapment.

One of the vehicles

is on the train tracks.

to stop all trains in progress.

Be advised, EMS is en route.
