Humboldt County
WOMAN:
When I came home from the clinic,everyone was asleep.
( sniffs )
Normally they'd hear my truck.
We live in the middle of nowhere.
I parked it about
a half a mile down the road
and I walked home.
But my boyfriend heard.
Hmm.
He hears everything.
When he came in to
see what was wrong,
I just tried to pretend
to be asleep.
But I couldn't
hold it in.
I started to cry.
Go on.
Sorry.
I was bawling my eyes out.
He held me.
And I wished--
I wished
I hadn't done it.
I wished--
and it was still alive.
Mm-hmm.
I've had four of them now.
I don't know why,
but when I make love
I can't feel anything.
- ( cough )
- Shh!
- Sometimes I think--
- Mmm.
Well--
I can't really see
a reason to keep trying,
to keep going.
Aren't you supposed
to say something?
I mean, I just told you
I'm thinking about
killing myself
and have no
reason to live.
Um, yeah.
Yeah.
I think a
prescription of, uh,
Paxil, uh, might
be the uh,
the right
prescription.
Mm-hmm.
Okay.
Anything else, Peter?
Hmm?
Um, "...can't
feel anything...
...reason to
keep going..."
Paxil?
Really?
All right. Sandra,
you're up next.
Okay.
He said you
should go in now.
Oh, thanks.
He's a bit of a
curmudgeon, isn't he?
He's-- he's not so bad.
I have something
for you.
- Here.
- Peter?
Later, alligator.
This an acceptance
into one of the best
residency programs
in the country.
I was hoping this meeting
would be a celebration.
But I--
I have to fail you.
What?
I can try harder.
I've been studying nonstop.
I haven't slept
in three days.
I'm doing rounds, I--
- I'm a little--
- If today's exam had been real,
you would have put
a life in danger.
could make a great doctor,
I have my own
moral imperative.
But Dad,
if I fail,
I won't graduate.
I'll lose the residency.
Peter,
we worked so hard for this.
I'm unbelievably
disappointed.
Congratulations.
Mmmm.
Idiot.

Puts my brain in such a huff.
