Moon Garden

Emma.

Wake up, Emma.

Emma. Wake up.

Momma?

Yeah. Shhh.

We're going to go chase the sunrise, ok?

Ok.

But you have to be quiet.

Come on, sweetie. Up, up.

Give me your feet.

Give me your feet.

There you go.

Good girl.

Go grab your backpack.

Come here. Come here. Come here.

Put your backpack on.

Don't forget your rhino. Ok sweetie?

Come on.

Ok.

Come on up.

Here we go.

Take off your backpack.

Keep your rhino.

Where's Daddy?

It's ok, love.

It's just a girls trip, ok?

Ok.

You want to see the countryside, right?

Where Mommy grew up?

It's going to be great.

It's going to be really really great.

Alex, don't!

Give me the keys!

Come here, bug.

Come here.

Let's get you back inside and give Mommy a moment.

Shhh. You have to be quiet.

Why? What is it?

We're in the night forest where it's always nighttime.

And when it's nighttime all the bad feelings come out.

Brrr. I feel cold.

Maybe I should sing a song to keep us warm.

No. Shhh. Don't.

The bad feelings will hear you.

They're everywhere.

Quick, we gotta make it back to the castle before...

Ha ha ha!

Oh no! The Mud Witch!

I can grow anywhere!

My dress is the ground!

What were you thinking?

Stop.

Just stop.

What? And leave you alone?

Leave you alone so you can grab up everything and yank it out of my life?

Oh, like you care.

All you care about is your writing and your career.

Forest fairies, eat this dress!

Yum, yum, yum!

Are there any bugs in it?

Lots!

Delicious!

Every time I have a deadline...

Every time I have a hard burn you pull something like this.

You don't see anything I do around here?

Stop making this about you.

About me?

About me?!

You were gonna take Emma.

Emma, sweetie.

I thought you were playing.

You know you shouldn't be playing on the stairs.

But I needed space for the night forest.

Come on.

Let's get you back to bed.

Here we go.

Why was Mommy crying?

I don't know, bug.

It's complicated.

Your mother is a complicated woman.

And she has her moments.

And you have to yell at her?

I shouldn't have yelled.

But yelling isn't the only thing that makes things mean.

The important thing is that we work through it.

We clean up the mess.

That's right.

Family is work...

Just like anything.

Maybe we should get Mommy flowers.

Maybe we should get Mommy...

Like, a purple flower, or...

Some color she hasn't seen like...

A rainbow flower or a unicorn flower.

You see colors like that?

When I dream sometimes.

Wish I could dream like that.

It'd make writing my book a heck of a lot easier.

Tell you what...

Tomorrow, when you're done dreaming...

We'll go and we'll see what we can do for Mommy, ok?

Ok.

I love you, Daddy.

Love you too.

Goodnight, bug,

I'll be on the couch.

You do whatever you want to do.

The moon is big.

That's a full moon.

It doesn't happen every night.

I wish I could go there.

You can.

I could take one of the clouds.

Yeah.

But clouds drift so...

You need a way to make them go where you want them to go.

Now...

Close your eyes, love.

Close your eyes.

And float far away.

No, I can't forget this evening.

Or your face as you were leaving.

But I guess that's just the way the story goes.

You always smile but in your eyes your sorrow shows.

Yes, it shows.

Night, beauty.

I'm done now, Alex. I'm done!

Nice. Real nice, Sara.

You scream and you yell.

You poor victim!

You treat me like garbage in front of our own daughter!

You push and you push...

And I shove back and then I'm the problem?!

You're the one who wants to destroy this house.

I just want out!

You want out?

All right.

Fine! You want out?

Say goodbye to the credit cards!

Good mooch off your parents and see how far you go!

Sorry I'm such a burden to you!

Sara, with everything I've got going on...

I cannot be responsible for your feelings.

Stop saying that!

Then do something for yourself!

I just want you to listen!

Stop!

No, stop!

Emma, sweetie.

No, I'm never going to talk to you ever again!

She's going to be okay.

Is she going to be ok?

No, no...

One, two, three.

Can you please be careful with her?

Sarah.

We just need to stabilize her neck in case there's any damage.
