The Next Three Days

Please, get me to a hospital!

I can't breathe.

You know what? If you were smart, you would stop talking right now.

Sue me. I just know that women should never work for women.

How can you say that?

Because they're always threatened.

Especially if you're beautiful, and they're not.

Fine! You never had a fight with your boss?

Never. You know why?

Because he's a man.

Can we please drop this?

I just want to go home and kiss my son. Honey.

See, you have to mention that you have a child and we don't.

-There's my point. -Erit, I didn't say anything of the sort.

Don't apologize, it's genetics.

Women are always competing with each other.

That's why you're having problems with your boss.

-Because she's a woman. -Exactly.

Women should work under men, men under women. That's it.

What about men under men?

That's fine, too. I mean, they can deal with it.

-Can we go now? -Either of you guys want another drink?

-We're good. -Shot? Double?

Women can do amazing things. I am one. I know.

But even I would never work for me.

That we can agree on. Good night, Mick.

We are in a bad mood.

She's got a point, bro, you know. I'd much rather work under you than her.

That's nice. I'd rather work under him, too.

You'd rather "work" under John?

You have a problem with that, too?

No! Why would I have a problem with your little sexual innuendo?

What is up your ass tonight?

So I should just sit here while you come on to my husband right in front of me?

Lara, if I wanted your husband, I would have him, like that.

How? You couldn't possibly show him more of those tits.

-You know what your problem is? -Okay...

My problem is your brain is as big as those tits.

-Baby, this is your fault! -Huge, exactly!

This is your...

If you had half a brain, we wouldn't be having this conversation.

Baby. Let it go, let it go, let it go.

-Good night, brother dear! -Good night!

-She's completely full of herself. -Don't try and agree with me now!

I don't even think she's a member of the dental profession.

Shut up!

She probably can't even spell "anesthesiologist."

-The woman's a complete fraud. -We went to her office party, you idiot!

And I believe she hit on me that night as well.

You are completely delusional. She didn't even hit on you in there. I just don't like her.

I understand your point of view. I really do. I agree with you.

Somebody who looks like that should not be allowed anywhere near oral surgery.

You are an asshole!

You're sitting in the chair, you're trying to stay calm,

and you got them things hanging in your face...

-So, see you next weekend. All right? -Okay.

-Thank you. -Good night.

-Bye. -Bye!

Bye!

Oh, gee.

Look at this.

-Now you say go. -Go!

Smash.

All right, squeeze in.

You know, you can't do this every morning. It's way too corny.

Come on. Smile.

It's just till he's 18.

-A present. -Oh, great. What's that?

You hate brushing your teeth and that brushes them in 30 seconds.

I love brushing my teeth. Don't believe everything your mother says.

-What time's your last class? -3:00.

But I got some papers to grade. Can you pick up Luke?

After yesterday, I probably don't have a job anyway, so...

Was it wrong of me to call her a useless cow?

I think bosses admire that kind of frank exchange.

-Did you call your dad? -When?

Birthday, yesterday!

Yeah, I sent him some freshly cut flowers, little pink roses.

I sent him a handmade card.

And I finished that quilt I've been sewing since spring.

You are completely impossible.

Did you notice what I got for my birthday this year? I got a grunt.

Mom said, "Happy birthday, sweetheart," and Dad went...

It was just... It was a beautiful moment in my life. I teared up.

Ever think that somebody has to be the bigger person here?

Now I want you to remember this for the custody hearing,

how Mommy is always scolding Daddy, okay?

Can you remember that?

You know, how are you gonna feel

when Luke grows up and doesn't call you on your birthday?

And now she's trying to drive a wedge between us.

-I give up. -And now she's abandoning you.

Hey, buddy, do you wanna try and knock him over again?

You ready? Line it up.

-Line it up now and you say go. -Go!

I got it.

Pittsburgh Police. This is an arrest warrant for Lara Brennan...

-Arrest for what? -...and a search warrant for the premises.

-Hold on! -Lara Brennan?

-You touch me again, I'm gonna arrest you. -Hold on.

-Stay where you are! -This is my house!

-Lara Brennan? -Yes!

I will arrest you.

You're under arrest for the murder of Elizabeth Gesas.

-Calm down! -I got my kid in the kitchen!

What are you doing? Arrest her for what?

-Turn around! -Mommy!

-John! John! -You have the right to an attorney...

Go get Luke. Go get Luke.

-...understand these rights... -Luke!

It's okay, buddy! It's okay!

-Mommy! -Luke!

It's all right. It's okay!

Daddy! Daddy!

-Daddy! -What's wrong? What's wrong, buddy?

What's wrong?

I got you.

Well, you can stay in here

as long as you sleep on this side of the bed, all right?

You little snake.

I don't know why I keep falling for the same old trick.

You have your tricks, don't you?

Hey, go to sleep.

Go to sleep.

-But Sam is your friend, right? -Not at lunch.

-Why, does he steal your food? -No.

-Did he say something mean? About Mom? -Yeah.

-Did you hit him? -Yeah.

Good. Where'd you hit him?

On the playground.

Wow! That must have hurt.

Hold it there, son.

It's a toy.

Thank you.

Hey. All right.

And the other arm.

Don't worry about the car. We'll get it back later, okay?

Hey!

Hi, honey!

Hey.

You won't give Mommy a kiss?

Can Mommy please have a kiss?

Rat-bag. Give your mom a kiss.

-Is Daddy reading you my letters? -Every night at bedtime.

Yeah?

You smell so good.

What are you gonna build today?

You gonna build a fort?

A door? Or a castle?

Hey.

Was he scared going to school?

No. I walked him to his class, gave him a kiss, he just walked right in.

Didn't even turn back for a wave.

Look at his friends!

And his desk.

-How was your first day? -Excellent.

Half the class stayed awake, you know.

-I talked to your mom. -When is she coming?

She's having a lot of trouble with her business, so...

Well, it's only been a couple of years, I'm sure she'll get around to it.

Have you heard anything?

About the appeal?

Yeah, and I've just decided not to tell you.

-Remember what Meyer said. -Don't.

It can take months for a court to make a ruling.

I saw that woman. She was there. She couldn't have just disappeared.

Meyer is looking for a new investigator.

Her coat snagged my purse, and I felt that button pop,

and they're blind if they can't find it.

He's gonna go through all the evidence again.

That's great, because we're not quite bankrupt yet.

We're fine.

How you just lie and lie.

But you're so handsome.

Can you do me a favor?

I don't know, I'm kind of busy.

I need you to run for governor.

I can do that.

You can change this rule about no conjugal visits,

'cause I don't think I can last another 20 years.

Hey.

I'm okay.

-I'm okay. -Everything is gonna be all right.

I promise.

You think he'll ever kiss me again?

I need you to stand up.

Tag, you're it.

Tag, you're it.

Luke! Let's go, yard ape.

Hey.

-Have fun? -Yeah.

She's kind of crazy, that little girl, right?

Time to go, Carrie!

No!

He didn't even read the thing. Half the time, I'm telling you... We'll get him in there.

What happens if we find the woman who was leaving the parking lot?

The PCRA has been rejected.

No new evidence can be submitted. Not anymore.

It was a robbery.

And if they had used her credit card, we could have argued that.
