Wilfred

So long, girl next door.

Hope they find my body before the smell becomes a problem for you.

I completely forgot to make arrangements for my dog.

And they say that if I leave him in the house...

Would it be okay if he stayed in your yard...

...until I get home from work? Huh?

Got any DVDs? A few.

I like Matt Damon.

Jenna's in trouble. What happened?

I'm gonna lose Jenna and it's all your fault. Do whatever it takes.

Wilfred? Wilfred!

Who are you? There's a stranger in my room!

- I don't know you! - You need to leave.

- Tell me what to do! - Get out!

Ryan.

Ryan?

Ryan!

Is Thursday going to happen?

Thursday?

Yes, Thursday. ls Thursday possible?

I think so.

You think so.

Well, I don't wanna hear what you think. I wanna hear what you know.

I want you to know it in your brain, know it in your heart...

...and I want you to know it in your balls!

Let me remind you, all of you, what's at stake here:

Millions of lives, billions of dollars. Life, Ryan.

Life itself.

So I'm gonna take another five goddamn seconds...

...out of my incredibly valuable time, and I'm gonna ask you again.

Will you be ready on Thursday?!

It said, "Wake up." Hmm.

Which is weird. I read somewhere that people can't read when they're dreaming.

Well, maybe you dreamed that you read that.

Then you woke up.

It felt so real. Mm.

And I had a report or something due.

On Thursday.

Today.

Dreams are the way our subconscious communicates with us.

What do you think you're trying to tell yourself?

And remember, there's no right or wrong answer.

It was a stress dream. That's the right answer.

Do you think I'm ready for today?

I mean, I feel like I am. But maybe deep down...

Whoa, whoa, slow down, Hamlet. Let's not overthink this.

That's what got you here in the first place, remember?

You're about to see Jenna and Wilfred for the first time in nearly four months.

Now, a little anxiety is to be expected.

But you've learned how to accept the world as it really is, right?

So maybe it's time to see Wilfred as he really is.

I'm ready.

You are gonna be so excited when you see Ryan.

Thanks for driving all the way up here.

It's so great to see you. How are you doing?

Oh. Good. Just needed some time away.

So...

...you married yet?

Drew and I broke up when we found out I wasn't pregnant.

Oh, I'm sorry.

It's for the best. I've had my hands full with Wilfred.

His recovery has been slow.

But I think spending a couple days with his best buddy...

...is gonna do wonders for his spirit.

Isn't that right, Wilfie?

So it all came back to you?

You remember everything?

Yeah.

There's nothing wrong with my mind.

I'm not sure we can say the same about yours.

No. I don't need your help. Wilfred, you're disabled.

No. I'm not defined by my injuries, Ryan.

I can do anything you can.

Unh. I'm not to be pitied.

And I don't need to be waited upon.

I guess it's the least I can do after the way I treated you.

I'm really sorry, Wilfred.

Well, maybe none of this would've happened...

...if I'd been honest with you.

About what?

Me. Who I am.

Why I'm here.

After what we've been through, I think it's time I gave you some answers.

Let's start with an easy one.

Why are you the only person who can hear me speak?

Ryan, you and I...

Stop. I don't wanna know.

Of course you do.

I can't trust a word you say.

And even if I could, I don't care anymore.

I just wanna stay out of my head and live in the real world.

I can't. I'm on medication.

Heh, heh. Medication? What for?

Because I need it.

Ryan, when I was lying in that hospital bed...

...crumpled up like some metaphor of a crumpled-up aluminum can...

...I had a lot of time to think.

And, like you, I just wanted it all to stop.

At first I tried to wank the thoughts away.

I wanked so much, I had nothing left by midmorning.

I was totally dry.

My penis eye was just like:

Pfft.

What are you talking about? Hear me out.

Do you know why dogs dig?

They're searching for bones?

Because we're searching for truth.

That's what I needed to find.

So I dragged myself out of that bed and started to dig.

I dug for hours.

My paws were a bloody mess, but I kept digging and digging.

And I didn't stop until I hit China.

So much for truth.

I'm not making this up!

It was one of those underground electrical Chinas.

Like they usually have on the poles with the telephone Chinas.

You mean wires?

I don't know words, Ryan. Okay?

We didn't all go to Stanford Law School.

My point is you can't stop looking for answers.

And if you ever wanna break through, then you gotta get out of this place.

There's no life for you here. Not without me.

This place saved me.

I lost my mind, Wilfred. Apparently, for the better part of three months...

...I was sitting in a coat closet getting baked with a dog.

That's messed up. What are you talking about?

After you got amnesia, I tried to get down to the basement to find your will.

But the basement wasn't there.

It was never there. Heh, that's crazy.

I mean, what you have to ask yourself, Ryan...

No, no. I'm not gonna think myself back to insanity. No more questions.

Ryan, you can't stop now. Don't you wanna know who you are?

I know who I am.

And I know what you are.

You're the part of me that lies to me.

And I'm through listening.

Ryan, you can't run away from me just because I'm in this chair.

Christ. Will someone get this Tic Tac from under my wheel?

There's a bloody Tic Tac under my wheel.

So Jenna and I got caught up...

...on gossip from the neighborhood. Mm-hm.

That's about it.

Very nice visit.

Two pills? Why?

I think we both know why, Ryan.

What do these do?

I hope they do the trick.

Dr. Eddy, when can I leave this place? Whenever you're ready.

So it's up to me?

Heh-heh-heh. So many questions.

That sounds more like the old Ryan.

So let's just focus on the right now.

You're gonna feel much better in the morning.

Do you play tennis?

Not really. That ball belonged to a friend of mine.

We should play sometime.

I mean, if we ever finish this stupid report.
