Come Back to Me

No!

[ Woman yelling in pain, sounds of a struggle ]

Please, let me go, Jimmy!

Man: You're not going anywhere. You're staying here with me, ain't ya?!

Get back here!

I said get back in here!

Woman: You're very high. You're scaring me. Man: Oh, I'm high? Oh, really?

Woman: Please, I'll take Dale, and we'll stay at my mom's.

[ Woman screaming, being punched ]

You're not going anywhere, bitch!

You always run away, you're always runnin' somewhere.

I know it's worse this time.

[ Fighting and yelling continues ]

You wanna go watch?

Suit yourself.

Stay here.

Man: ...That little freak? That little piece of shit?!

I ain't certain he's mine! Is he?

Is that little fucking freak mine?!

Did you fuck around on me?!

Who you been fucking around with?

You're hurting me!

Help me.

Come here.

Put the knife down!

Get on the ground!

Drop it!

Drop the knife! Drop the knife!

Get on the ground!

Get on the ground!

Get on the ground! Freeze!

Go, go, go!

Hey, kid, what's your name?

Dale.

Dale, you okay? Is your mom inside?

Stay here.

Reno P.D., entering premises.

Police, coming in.

Stay there.

This is unit 610. Code 999.

Shots fired, requesting backup.

Did you hear that, mama?

I think they got him.

It's gonna be all right now.

Mama?

[ Tires screeching, glass shattering ]

[ Truck engine rumbling outside ]

[ Man on radio giving weather forecast ]

Shit.

Well, this is a disaster.

What are you doing up? I was gonna make you breakfast in bed.

Well, you've gotta get it on the plate first.

Ha ha ha.

Besides, I haven't quite worked up an appetite yet anyway.

Um, well, what about pancakes?

You can lick butter and syrup off me.

I like it.

Uh, did you notice someone new just moved in across the street?

Really? That's what you're thinking about right now?

Yeah, thought we could go introduce ourselves before I go to work.

Okay.

What?

Nothing.

I just, I don't have time right now.

Oh, but you have time to meet the new neighbor.

Sarah...

Look, it's fine.

It's fine. I'll be down in a sec.

Okay.

Sarah: He's home, right?

I think that's his car in the driveway.

Hi, we live across the street.

Thought we'd come and introduce ourselves.

I'm Josh and this is my wife, Sarah.

Hi.

Dale.

Dale.

Are these for me?

Yeah, welcome to the hood.

Did you make them?

No, I'd be lying if I said I did.

So you didn't make them?

No, they're from a packet.

It's the thought that counts.

Great house you got here.

Probably rented it for a steal, huh?

With the economy and all.

Is everything okay?

Sorry.

It's just that you remind me of someone.

So, what is it that you do, Josh?

Croupier over on-- I work on the strip.

Yeah, no, Sarah's the brains in this relationship.

She's just finished grad school

and is working on her dissertation,

the sociological effects of Internet pornography on modern relationships.

Or something like that.

Yeah, she's going for her doctorate in social science

and already has an offer from UNLV.

You know what, Josh? Maybe we should let Dale go, don't you think?

Right, of course.

Sorry, listen to me.

Anyway, great to meet you, Dale.

And we'll... See you around.

Nice to meet you.

Oh, my God, Leslie.

I can feel him kicking.

How do you know it's a him?

Oh, no girl could be that cruel.

I know what you're thinking, smart ass.

I didn't say anything.

Okay, wait, what was it, again?

You've slept with two guys since your divorce?

One was black, one was Korean, so when this one comes out,

it won't take a genius to do the math.

Right, right.

Black, Korean, it is all extremes with you.

One was probably too big, one was probably too small.

No shit. That Korean was hung like an elephant.

He'll come around. You'll see.

I know, I just...

I don't know, I want him to be ready, too, you know?

Oh, my God.

Buster!

Buster, come here!

That scares the shit out of me every time.

Best watch dog a girl could ever have, aren't you?

Do you want some more tea?

No, I should get this one home.

Right, and yeah, I should get some work done.

But it's Sunday, a day of rest.

I'll rest when I'm dead.

Hi, Sarah.

It's, uh, Dale.

Oh, of course, Dale. I'm sorry.

I'm a little out of it today.

So, how long have you been working here?

Um, I just transferred from the other super a.

Clerk: 72.80.

Let me help you out to your car.

Dale, this really isn't necessary.

Oh, that's your car, right?

Yeah.

Oh, here, let me get it for you.

Thank you.

This is really nice of you.

Please. Oh, no, no, no.

I'm your neighbor, just take it. Not a stranger.

No, no, no.

I'm your neighbor, not a stranger.

Okay, thank you.

Oh, Dale? Shoot.

I'd forget my head if it wasn't screwed on.

Thank you. Bye.

And river...

Whoo hoo.

She's a winner.

Sorry, sucker.

You're on a roll.

You're my lucky charm.

Thank you.

And that's my cue.

Uh-oh. Can I buy you a drink?

Uh, it's a casino, Helen. Drinks are free.

So am I.

Bye, Helen. All yours.

What's that, your retirement fund?

Yeah, fucking day shift. Welfare checks only, please.

I know, man. But you wanna grab lunch?

I got the good stuff.

C'mon, Johnny, you know I can't do that shit anymore.

Besides, I got another one of those appointments.

Wow. Wow, okay.

Well, you're a determined son of a bitch, I'll give you that.

Shot for luck?

Nah, nah, nah, come on.

On the house.

Thank you.

Sarah: You do wanna have a baby with me, don't you?

I mean, starting a family, it's a big deal.

I guess I just need a little more time.

It's only been like the last couple of months

since your accident that we've even talked about it.

I got a second shot, babe.

I don't wanna waste any more time.

I want to make every moment count.

So, let's go skydiving.

[ Loud music coming from car ]

Sarah: Hello?

Josh: Hey, babe, it's me.

Shouldn't you be home?

I know, I'm sorry,

I haven't been able to call 'til now.

Um, I am gonna rest up here for a couple of hours

and take another shift.
