Echo Valley

Good morning, sweetheart.

I had to leave super early this morning to drop off some saddles.

I hope I didn't wake you.

Could you take the horses out if it stopped raining?

I'll be back home in about an hour.

Come on. Let's go.

I was thinking, let's stay home this weekend, huh?

Catch up on that to-do list we keep putting off?

I promise I'll fix that crack in the bedroom ceiling.

Hey, I just wanted to say sorry about last night.

I was just drunk and being insensitive.

Anyway, I'm back home in half an hour

and I'm going to shower you with kisses until you forgive me.

- Kate. I'm sorry. - Oh.

- I-I didn't mean to scare you. - No. Sorry.

Let me just, uh, take out my…

What's the verdict?

You wanna come and have a look with me?

I don't know. Do I?

Okay. Come on, Coop.

You see the dips? Those rafters could collapse any day now.

Then you've got a real mess on your hands.

How much to replace it?

Well, if you stick with the shingles, you're looking at around $9,000.

Okay, let me think on it and I'll get back to you.

Ah, no rush.

- Morning, Kate. - Hi.

Hannah, why are you not dressed?

Could you be a little polite and say hi to Kate?

Hi, Kate.

Hi, sweetheart.

Richard, honey, Kate's here again.

I'm back in my office.

Sorry, I gotta get this little one ready.

- Do you wanna just go on in? - Yeah, of course. Thank you.

Come on, sweetie. We got to hustle.

I'm coming, I'm coming. Geez, Mom.

- Good morning. - Hey.

Come in.

Ah, I'm trying to find a brief.

I hired a new assistant, and it's not working out.

I don't know where the hell anything is. Oh.

Please, sit.

Thanks.

Yeah, this is good.

So, your message said you needed to discuss the roof. Is that right?

Yeah, um…

Randy came out to take a look and unfortunately, we need a new one.

- Well, not surprised. - I know. I know.

I thought that we had two years,

- you know, at least. - How much?

How much?

9,000.

9,000. This is turning into a bad joke.

No, but it's guaranteed to last ten years.

He said at least ten years.

You know, I ran into Kathy Dumont at the club.

She said you'd canceled her daughter's riding lessons for the past six months.

Hilary Stafford told me the same thing.

Look, I'm sorry you lost Patty,

but I can't continue to pour money into a failing business,

especially 'cause we're not married anymore.

And I never wanted that farm in the first place.

If you can't make it work, you're gonna have to sell it.

Bye, Richard.

Bye, Dad.

Bye. Nice to see you guys.

- Have fun. - I'm late. Let's go.

Thanks.

I'm guessing you haven't heard from Claire.

She showed up here last week.

Three o'clock in the morning and she's pounding on the front door.

What did she want? I me--

What does she always want? Money.

And it doesn't help that you continue to give her anything she wants.

She's our daughter, Richard.

- What-- - We made promises

when we sat down with the counselor, do you remember?

- We both made pledges not to enable-- - Yes. You know I tried.

- You know I tried-- - You never tried, Kate.

She'll show up and give you that smile and you'll gladly pretend everything is fine.

It's not fine. Our daughter is very sick.

He only barks when you come home.

Are you feeding him enough?

- He's about to eat my hand off. - Stop it. Come on, he's fine.

Oh, I missed you so much.

I missed you more.

What is going on with your hair, Mom?

Oh, I could ask you the same thing.

Okay, well, I'm gonna call and make you an appointment.

You really need to start taking care of yourself again.

Why didn't you call me back?

It's a long story.

Speaking of, can I, um, have your iPad so I can check my messages?

Okay. Where were you?

Uh, a couple of Ryan's friends rented a house down in Dewey Beach.

You didn't get my messages?

No, my phone died.

W-We just bought it.

- It broke already? - Ryan threw it into the ocean

like a Hail Mary pass. Like…

Splash. Fish food.

Why did he do that?

'Cause he is a fuckface.

Don't worry, I got him back.

Before I left, I went into his closet, and I gathered up all his shit

and I threw it over the 21st bridge.

He is probably freaking the fuck out right now.

Oh, my God. He totally is.

Mission accomplished.

Oh, Claire, come on.

Well, that's what happens when you send dick pics to skanks

in front of your girlfriend.

Maybe you should break up with him.

Oh, I am going. Sprinting.

But first, I need…

I need a phone, so can we go to Verizon?

Um, yeah, let me put the horses in and we can then ride over.

You hungry? You want a grilled cheese?

I am starving.

So, uh…

are you feeling good?

I'm clean, Mom. I'm good.

So happy you're here.

Are you getting jealous? Are you getting jealous?

You wanna go for a swim tomorrow down at Marsh Lake?

It'll be good for you.

Yeah, well, we'll see.

Remember when I was little, and I was convinced a ghost lived in the lake?

Yes, of course I remember that.

You called her Ariel, right?

- No, Aurora. - Aurora.

The ghost of Marsh Creek Lake.

Ooh, so scary.

No, I got it.

Where's my stuff?

Oh, my God. What happened to your face?

Stop fucking around, Claire. I know you took it.

Ryan, I don't know what you're talking about.

Do you have any idea how much fucking trouble I'm in right now because of you?

There was a half a fucking kilo in my bag.

Well, I told Jackie that you stole it.

- So if you don't give it back… - What?

- You told Jackie? - …he's gonna come looking for you.

Ryan, what the fuck is the matter with you?

Why the fuck would you do that to me?

Because I'm fucking scared, that's why.

- You know what Jackie's like. - Ryan, do not tell him where I live.

Do not tell Jackie where I fucking live!

Hey.

Hey, everything okay here?

I'm going out.

Go where?

Where are you going?

- Honey? You okay? -

Claire?

- Claire? Claire? - Mmm?

Claire.

Stand up for me.

Come on, stand up for me.

There you go.

Okay. There you go.

Claire.

Honey, I need to talk to you about last night.

I'm gonna go take a dip.

You can't keep avoiding this.

Okay.

Trip number 15. I think my arms are gonna fall off.

I remember those days.

Tell me it gets easier.

Oh, God, no. Just you wait.

I'm just kidding.

Every day is a gift.

Okay, do you guys want me to do a front flip or a backflip?

Backflip!

You guys have to promise me you're not gonna try this.

You have to pinkie promise, okay?

Let me see all of you.

- We pinkie promise. - That's not a pinkie!

- Yes it is. - Now, go!

Okay!

- Three, two, one. -

- Hey. - Hey.
