Now, you understand,
children... they react to
what goes on around them.
This is not like Gabriel.
I don't mean to pry,
but I have to ask.
No. He's not acting out
or anything like that.
Not with him. With the family.
Stan and I...
we're getting a divorce.
I see.
Gabriel shouldn't be punished
for what's happening at home.
He's not. He's being
punished for fighting.
Can't you make an exception?
I wish I could. School policy.
You should see this suspension
as an opportunity.
Talk to him.
Try to make him understand.
Divorces are never easy,
but they don't have to be final.
You want to tell me
what happened?
I don't want to talk about it.
Gabriel... fighting? Why?
Things are difficult
enough around here
without getting a call
from your principal.
You broke Dougie's nose.
It'll be a miracle
if we don't get sued.
Are you listening to me?
I don't want to talk about it!
I don't know what
I'm going to do with you.
What do you mean, suspended?
I left three messages
at your office.
Well, I was working.
Yeah? I work, too.
Thank you, Susan.
I know you work.
You can't do me
the courtesy of waiting
until our divorce is finalized
before you run around
with that woman.
I was working! Do what you want!
Keep it down, okay?
Gabriel can hear.
There you go again,
trying to avoid the issue.
God, you are driving me crazy.
You ruined my life! Oh, yeah?
Well, that's a two-way street,
sweetheart!
You okay?
Sure.
Heard you had a scrap yesterday.
You want to tell me about it?
you pushed that boy down
and broke his nose.
Hey. Look at me.
Fights happen.
It's what you do after
that matters.
What you learn from
the situation. Okay?
You know, fights don't always
have to be with other people.
Sometimes they're just problems that
you're dealing with, you know?
Do you know what I'm saying?
Okay. Well, I gotta go.
You... stay out of trouble.
Okay. I gotta go to work.
I made you lunch,
it's in the fridge.
And you have mine
and your dad's numbers
in case of an emergency.
You gonna be okay by yourself?
Why aren't you shooting hoops?
Hey, Tully. Don't feel like it.
I hear you.
It a holiday or something?
What?
It's a school day.
I'm suspended.
Ah.
I know about that, too.
What are you escaping from?
You wouldn't understand.
Try me.
I've developed a list myself.
Responsibility,
problems, parents.
Yeah?
Always on my case
"My house, my rules."
My old man always said that.
So what did you do?
What'd I do?
I left.
Hey, Tully!
Ah, gotta bolt.
while Stan and I work.
I'm close by.
Gabriel doesn't fight.
He does now.
Recess.
How is he?
Him? He's fine.
Few scrapes. Nothing bad.
And the other kid?
I'm worried.
I'll talk to him.
He doesn't respond to lectures.
Gabriel doesn't respond
to much of anything lately.
How are you doing?
I'm managing.
Is that enough?
What?
The kid...
He sees things, I'm sure.
Hears things.
What's he supposed to think?
Our marriage is over.
Of course we fight.
What couple doesn't
when it's all ending?
Sometimes we're loud.
Sometimes we're really loud.
Don't get started.
This is hard enough.
I can't fight a two-front war.
Neither can a ten-year old.
There's more.
What? You're not gonna
send him to boarding school.
He has to choose.
What?
Who he wants to live with.
It's only fair.
And I remember when math
was my only problem.
Talk to him.
I'm glad you're here.
Hey, I'm hiding from
the widow down the block.
