The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Her Page #4

---

No.

What is it, then?

I was gonna say

something good,

something that

would have...

solved all our problems

and made everything all better,

but you know what,

I forgot what it was.

That's too bad.

Isn't it?

I'm gonna go.

No.

All I want...

is a chance

to just talk it out.

Then after that, after that

you can disappear,

to wherever it is

you disappear to.

You ready, sir?

Yeah... yeah,

I was born ready.

- Nice and easy.

- Yeah...

Watch your step.

I'll see you around.

Bye, Conor.

All right,

watch your head coming up.

- Got him?

- I got him.

Now, take it easy.

Can I keep stalking you?

Put your arm there for me?

Hey. Hey, you OK?

Yeah. Um...

What happened?

No. My husband...

I don't know what

to call him anymore.

Oh, yeah.

I have one of those.

So... want to, want to

walk with me?

Join me for a drink

or something?

No, no, not right now, thank you.

Are you awake?

Auntie Em, are you awake?

No, Philip.

Your eyes are open.

Apparently.

Why do you have

your shoes on in bed?

Morning, sunshine.

Mom's making French toast.

All right, I'll be right down.

OK.

Charlie called for you again.

Great.

You came in late last night.

What's with the feast?

We have a special guest star.

Outside.

But it's been hard.

There's a barrier...

Good morning.

No f***ing way.

El...

- Come on.

- What the hell are you doing?

- Come on. Just one second.

- Don't touch me, Katy...

- No, no, no, no.

- Don't... touch me!

Don't... don't...

' Lt

' No!

" " Ow!

I will bite you!

I swear to God I will bite you!

I will bite you back!

Ow! Ow!

Goddamn it.

You sandbagged me.

He chairs the Psychology Department.

Good for him.

Well, I just thought he'd be

a bit more qualified to...

to deal with your

circumstance.

What's my circumstance?

He was my grandson.

I lost him, too.

None of us know how to help you.

Well, neither do I.

I'm so glad they delegated

the speech to you.

He's not a stranger...

...that some hospital referred you to.

He's a colleague of mine.

I don't think one session

a week would hurt.

Why can't you talk to me

once a week, Dad?

- Why outsource it?

- I'm not outsourcing it,

and I don't really think you

want to talk to me about it.

I don't need to talk

to another therapist.

Eleanor...

Please, stop reminding me

that something's wrong.

That's... not my intention.

Then... please let me

stop thinking about it.

Tragedy is a foreign country.

We don't know how to

talk to the natives.

What are you talking about?

You know, there's this

really cool thing called chairs.

Yeah, I, I heard about those.

It's actually not

too shabby down here.

You OK?

Sure.

Liar.

Sure.

When's your next class?
