We Don't Belong Here Page #3

to Elisa anymore, Mom?

Are we supposed to act

like she doesn't exist?

Will you stop?

I saw her in a magazine

and her website.

Stop.

Stop it.

May I be excused?

Yeah, you're excused.

You need to pay attention

to her, Mom.

She's clearly not well.

Madeline,

you're not here with her.

Every day, I see her.

I've seen how she's progressed.

She's really doing great.

How's Max?

I haven't talked to him

in a while.

I haven't spoken to him either.

He doesn't return

my phone calls and...

Do you think he's gay?

I don't have any idea

about that.

Elisa's diary.

Elisa by the pond.

A man named Frank Harper.

Who are you?

Max in the closet.

Time travel.

Elisa?

Elisa?

Elisa in a closet.

Mom, I'm scared.

Where's Max at?

Max by the pond.

The bad man.

Love you.

Love you.

Don't know well if I do

What I am here to do

In my head

Don't know well if there's

Sanity or not

Sanity or not

Hi.

Morning.

Wanna go shopping or something?

No,

I have a doctor's appointment.

Yeah?

Didn't you go yesterday?

Yeah.

Sunday, Monday, Thursday.

Wow.

That's a lot.

It's really good though.

It's great.

You seem off.

Did you take your meds?

Yes.

I told Mom to tell you

to stop asking me about my sh*t.

Why?

It's good to have support.

You know?

Plus, the key to you having

an amazing life is medication.

Is that so?

Mm-hm.

An amazing life?

Yeah.

You're the worst.

Max told me he was gay once.

Just me, nobody else.

I was 12

and it made me feel important.

Then he took it back.

He asked me not to tell anyone.

I never did.

It's time for checks, Maxwell.

Maxwell?

A few days, but he

doesn't want to talk to you.

I'm sorry. I'll try and get him

to call you later.

Can you please...

Max is gonna go to Elisa's.

Is that okay?

Yeah, it's... It's...

Yeah.

We are discharging him

this afternoon.

Thank you so much.

Of course, Nancy.

Thank you, doctor.

I'll look forward to hearing

from you soon then, right?

I'm sure he'll call you later.

Okay. Thank you.

I think my

mother's greatest fear

is that Max will leave

the same way Elisa did.

What would she have then?

What are you

looking for up there?

Just looking.

Oh, no, no, no, I shouldn't.

Thank you.

What did you do that for?

Because the nurses just hate it.

Dan, you better stop that

or you're gonna lose

all your privileges.

Smoking break is over,

time for group.

Oh, and they approved your taxi

for this evening.

Where are you going?

Eight, seven...

six.

Sh*t.

- Hey.

- Hi.

You seem good today.

I am good.

I'm better, thanks.

I just...

I wish that...
