Too Close to Home

Every time we go out, it's always something with you!

Always! Get out!

Fine. I don't want to be with you, anyway.

- Good! Get out, then! - Fine, I will!

Go back to your trash home! Get out!

You're... you're just a loser.

Hey!

Get the hell out of my car.

Mama! Mama!

Mama, I know you hear me!

Mama, open this damn door!

It's me, Mama!

Bonnie.

- Bonnie? - Hmm?

Mm.

What time is it?

I don't know.

Why don't you go back to bed, baby, okay?

She's out there.

Who?

My mama.

- Where? - At Grandma's.

Okay. All right. I'm up.

- Can we tell her? - No, no.

I want you to go to bed, okay?

- You sure? - Yeah. Go on.

Night.

Mama, I know you're in there!

Mama, open up the door!

Mama! Mama!

Mama! Mama!

Mama, I know you hear me!

Mama, open this damn door!

I got to pee, Mama!

Shelby.

- What the hell are you doing? - What?

I had to go, and she wouldn't open the door!

So you're just gonna piss on the ground like an animal?

When a lady has to go, a lady has to go.

- A lady, huh? - Oh, don't you start, too.

What happened to your face?

Damn loser.

Who, Ray?

Bonnie, come on. You're blowing my high.

So you're gonna admit that you're high?

Well, don't you... don't you say shit to me.

Little Miss Perfect. Mama, Mama!

Open this damn door, Mama!

- Shelby, what are you doing? - Hey, she hears me.

- She hears me! She does. - What are you doing?

- She's asleep, Shelby. - But I need to talk to her.

Why?

She hasn't got no money for you.

Well, did I say I wanted money?

Well, then why else are you here?

I can't go home.

Why?

Is it because Ray's hitting you?

Ray kicked me out of the house.

What? I... I didn't hear what you said.

Ray kicked me out, okay?

It was my fault.

It's your fault, huh?

It's always your fault. You know, I can't do this anymore.

Bonnie, no. Please. Please.

- Look, I'm so sorry. - Please don't cry right now.

Bonnie... Look, I am, okay?

- All right. Okay. - Look, I can't do a damn thing right.

- All right. No, no. Come here, come here. - And I just need to stay for a little while.

Come here, come here, come here, come here.

- Bonnie, I don't got nowhere to go. - Okay. All right. All right. I know.

- I ain't got nowhere to go. - Okay. All right. Listen.

You can stay with me,

but you got to behave this time, all right?

- I will. I will. I promise. Yeah. - You will?

I'm serious.

I will. But why... why won't she talk to me?

I want... I want you to look at me, okay?

Look at me, please.

- Shelby. - Yeah, okay, what?

If you come in my house,

I don't want you talking to Mac.

- Okay. - Promise me?

Yes. Yes, I do.

- Let's go. - I'm tired.

It's okay.

All right.

Oh, no.

I don't even know how I got here, really.

- It's okay. - I think I walked.

It's okay.

Hey.

It's okay.

The kids are asleep. Okay?

- Okay. - Just watch your step.

- Hey, Mac. - Shh, shh.

- Can't I just hug him? Can't I hug him? - No. No. No. That's not happening.

I want you to sit down. Look at me right now.

- Hey, Mac. - Listen to me. Shelby, look at me.

You're gonna stay the night tonight.

You're gonna leave tomorrow morning, all right?

- I don't want you talking to Mac. - Okay.

Promise me?

- You promise me that? - But he looks like he wants

- to talk to me, though. - I know. Okay.

Are you sure?

Lay down. Scoot up. Scoot up.

- Okay. - Just lie down.

Are you sure?

Okay.

- I'm tired. - I know, honey.

Just close your eyes and just try and sleep, okay?

Go on. Go to bed.

It's all right.

Night.

- Hi, Anna. - Hi.

Come on in.

- Come on. - Thank you. Is Dax here?

Uh, yeah. Yeah. Uh, Dax!

- Anna. - Hi.

Hi.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Yeah. Come on in.

- Hey, can you give us a minute? - Yeah.

What's going on? We both know.

- Valerie. - I've got nothing to say to you.

Val.

- She shouldn't be here. - Let's hear her out.

- I told you what she said. - I know that.

I want to hear her out.

- Fine. Then I'm going home. - No, you're not.

I don't want to be a part of this.

We already are whether you want to be or not.

Now stop it and listen.

- Valerie told me... - Valerie, I told you not to tell anyone.

You don't have the right to ask me

- to keep that kind of secret. - It's me. It's okay.

Anna, I need you to tell me the truth.

- I don't want to know the whole story. - Valerie, stop it!

Anna...

Are you having an affair with the president?

Okay, you can't tell me.

Then... what happened to him? Did you...

- did you do something to him? - I didn't do anything to him.

Then why is the news saying he's suffering from the flu?

He was fine earlier.

Anna.

Answer him.

- I don't know. - Tell me everything.

- I can't. - Anna...

I can't.

Okay.

No. Not okay.

Dax, do you know that the Secret Service

and the press are gonna be all over us

- when they find out about this? - Val...

Yeah, Dax, they will. Because we know her,

- our careers are ruined. - No, they won't.

Really?

Well, why don't you ask anybody who's ever slept

with the president what their lives were like

after their affair?

Valerie, calm down.

How can I? This girl is ruining our lives, Dax.

You know what? I'm out of here.

This was so selfish and so wrong!

We were your friends!

We were.

Valerie!

She's right, you know.

I didn't expect for any of this to happen.

No.

You never do when you're in it.

Dax, I have no money,

and...

my apartment... I just...

I can't go back to it, so I just...

I just need a place to stay for a few nights.

Anna.

Please.

- Dax? - Hey...

Yeah?

I'm sorry.

Look, I can't get involved in this.

What happened to your apartment?

I just don't have it anymore.

Why not?

Listen, I just need your help.

Then you need to call your parents.

- I can't. - Anna, your father is an attorney

and your mother is a college professor at Harvard.

You need to call them. They called and got you that job.

They can help.

Uh, we don't...

You know, we don't come from money.

People can't help us.

No, you need to call them.

- I can't. - Why not?

It's complicated.

That's just another way of saying you can't tell me.
