new job.
I came home before work on
Wednesday and your car was here.
- You didn't have to lie to me.
- Yes, I did.
- No, you didn't!
- I did. I missed the appointment.
- Why'd you miss it?
- It slipped my mind.
It didn't! You didn't want the job.
You saw the counsellor
because they forced you to.
- What's your point, Andie?
- My point is you just didn't go.
- I deliberately missed the appointment?
- Yes.
Is this how you feel about me?
Yes.
- Well, I didn't know this.
- Well, now you do.
You know everything now, huh?
You're 18 and you got a scholarship...
- That's not fair.
- I'm ignorant, never gave you anything.
- I never asked for anything!
- That's brilliant.
Why can't you just forget her?
- It's late. You got school.
- No! Don't walk out.
- Will you please listen to me?
- I've already been through this.
Sure! You go through it every day.
Why can't you just realise that she's
gone and she's not gonna come back?
- She's never coming back!
- Shut up!
Why can't you accept it?
She's just gone! She...
Why can't you accept it?
Because...
I love her, that's why.
Well, I loved her, too, you know.
She just didn't love us back.
OK, she tried. I don't know,
she just couldn't handle it.
Yeah, but I knew it. I knew it all along.
When I was five, I felt it.
Remember when she didn't
come home that time?
I knew it then. I knew why.
I was 14 and I knew it.
You were 50 and you didn't.
You know, you can't go on
living every day in the past.
She left us. We didn't leave her. There
was nothing we could do about it.
Since when is a daughter supposed
to know more than her father?
I've just been a blind fool.
And you're a blind fool
that needs a shave, too.
And I need a shave.
Well...
You better get to bed. You got school.
And I gotta hit the hay too, cos I got
a few things I gotta do tomorrow.
OK.
I would have got you some shoes,
but I didn't know your size.
Hey, Mary.
- How you doin'?
- Why haven't you called me?
I got nailed for the stable thing. The
groom saw us. It's against club rules.
I called you three times
and I left messages.
Yeah? Well, I didn't get 'em.
My family, they're irresponsible
about that stuff.
I waited for you this morning.
- Yeah? Where?
- Parking lot.
I saw you, and I thought
that you saw me.
No.
What about prom, Blane?
I'm having a bad day. Can we talk later?
- No. What about prom?
- Why don't we meet after school?
- No! What about prom?
- Andie, come on.
- Just say it.
- What?
I wanna hear you say it.
- Andie, please. All right?
- I wanna hear you say it.
A month ago, I asked
somebody else and I forgot.
You're a liar! You're a
filthy fucking no-good liar!
You didn't have the guts
to tell me the truth.
- Just say it!
- I'm not lying.
- Tell me!
- What do you wanna hear? What?
- You're ashamed to be seen...
- No, I am not. I am not.
You're afraid! You're terrified that your
goddamn rich friends won't approve!
Just say it! Just tell me the truth!
You don't understand that
it has nothing at all to do with you.
Andie!
Andie!
Forget about it.
It's not worth getting upset over.
- Why don't you take off?
- Any girl that did that to me,
I would not be too jazzed
to hold on to, Blane.
It's not worth it.
I told you it wasn't gonna work.
The girl was, is,
and will always be, nada.
You got a problem, friend?
All right, all right.
Thanks, huh?
- Andie?
- Yeah.
- You're Andie, aren't you?
- Yeah, I am.
- How do you know me?
- Well, lona told me. I'm Terrence.
- Pet shop. Right?
- Yeah, among other things.
She's in the bedroom getting ready. You
might wanna go and tell her we're late.
OK.
lona?
Nice to meet you.
- lona?
- Hi, honey! I'm in here.
- Laugh and I'll deck ya.
- What happened?
Either it's all those drugs
I took in the '60s,
or I am really in love.
What do you think? Honestly?
Honestly I think you look great.
- I look like a mother.
- No. Well, yeah, a little, but that's
