say thank you. That's the only...

You're f***ing friends

with him?

You're f***ing friends with that

trigger-happy piece of sh*t?

I'm not good friends with him,

he's just...

You don't come to see me, and

you're hanging out with him?

Maybe I should have

narced on you both.

Are you okay?

What happened?

Okay, stop. What are you doing?

What are you doing? Stop.

Stop.

What are you doing?

I love you.

I love you

and I wanna be with you.

Chris, I can't. I'm married.

I have a family.

They're all in the house

right now.

I know. I know.

But I know you love me.

I know you need me.

Chris, I have to...

I have to be with my family.

I'm sorry.

Is that it?

You're just gonna

shut me out?

No, no. I...

We can be friends.

Chris, I think

we can be friends...

We're not friends.

I mean, you're the only person

I can talk to.

You're everything to me.

That's too much

pressure, Chris.

It's too much for me.

I know you feel that way

about me.

I know you do.

You told me I'm the only one

you can talk to.

I have to fix that.

- Why?

- Because that's the problem.

I have to save

my marriage.

I have to save my family.

I've been messing it up there

for too long, okay? Please.

I can't do this thing

where I can't even

see you or talk to you.

It was better before

when I was locked up,

we could talk on

the phone for real.

- Yes, I know. I know.

- This is...

- I know, I know...

- F***!

We can be friends, Chris.

I think we can be friends who...

who can take care of each other

and...

have each others backs

and stuff, okay?

How are we gonna

be friends?

I'm...

Am I gonna come over to your house

and hang out with your family?

Yes.

- Yes, Chris. That's what you're gonna do.

- What?

You're gonna come over,

and you can...

get to know Hildy, and you

can get to know Tom, and...

We can...

spend time together.

That's what friends do, okay?

You want that?

That's what you want?

What...

are you doing?

Uh... I was thinking maybe

we could...

I've got work

in the morning.

Oh, I know. I know.

Carol.

I can't.

You know, but the doctor said

it's not entirely physical.

I mean, we could try and...

You know, we don't

have to do it.

Carol...

Please.

Could you just let me

get some sleep.

Okay, sure.

Hildy, how many times do I have to

tell you to get dressed already?

He's gonna be here

any minute.

How many times

have I told you

I will get ready

when he gets here.

It literally takes me

30 seconds to get ready.

Jesus.

Hey, wait a second.

Come back here, Hildy,

I'm speaking to you.

So did I do something

to upset you,

or was there something

you want to say to me?

What?

It's just 'cause
