The Invitation Page #5

It's a little grim.

She looked at peace to me.

- I'm not judging her.

- No, I know, babe.

Yeah, no one's judging her.

I just don't understand

why you'd show

something like that at

a dinner party, David.

- You don't get it?

- Mm-mmm.

I guess this is not really being

taken the way we meant it.

I mean, it is a pretty heavy

thing to drop on us, David.

But it's not heavy.

For us, it's not.

- No.

- It's okay.

Not everybody gets it.

It's not about the fact

that she died. We all die.

What's it about?

It's about communion.

Right, like Eden said,

she's just trying to show you

that there's nothing

to be afraid of.

Look at me. My pain had turned

me into some walking clich.

I was a coked-up,

out-of-control

record producer, for god's sake.

I was a slave to my own grief,

but not anymore.

Dr. Joseph

freed me from that.

I just...

Phew!

He gave me back

my center, you know?

I don't have to be

afraid anymore.

Amen, brother.

You know, we've all been

through horrible things,

but those things

don't have to define us.

What happened

to Eden and will...

No, don't. Don't!

David, don't.

Finding this saved my life.

I almost died after.

I almost

couldn't keep on living.

You know that, will.

But look at me now.

I'm great. I'm happy.

I'm not angry anymore.

And if anyone is gonna try

to take that away from me...

My god, look at the way

you're looking at me.

If anyone is gonna try

to say that this isn't...

Edie, I... Edie...

It's just you

don't think I know?

Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.

- I know!

- Let's get a drink.

It's just that easy for you?

Come on. Come on.

Let's get a drink.

Yeah, we all are lost.

We can agree on that, right?

It's just...

It's too big.

It's too big

for any of us alone.

You got to...

That better be...

No, I've got it.

I've got it. I got it.

David.

Oh, sorry.

Excuse me for a second.

Hi there.

- Hey.

- Hey.

Are you okay?

I-I'm sorry.

No, not you.

I mean, I knew it was

gonna be heavy, but...

I was just... why CHOI and I were

supposed to be here together for you.

We have to make a better effort.

It's on us,

and I was trying

to give you space,

and I don't know if that came

across like I was checked out.

It's...

I think you should probably...

Okay, hello.

I don't...

You haven't heard

a word I said, have you?

I-I'm sorry, Gina.

Just a couple people

looking for a party on foot.

Good luck. They'll die

of dehydration.

Yeah.

Anyway, um, we can talk later.

I just... i wanted you

to know that...

I have been thinking about you.

- Yeah.

- All right?

- I love you...

- I love you, too.

And I miss you.

I miss you, too.

I'm gonna get a refill.

Get a... get a drink.
