00:04If you were a teacher, I would fill your class, take a nap, over and over till you notice me.
00:17If you were a waiting room, I would never see a doctor, I would sit there with my first day.
00:32I'm gonna be the power ballad that lifts you up and holds you down.
00:39I wanna be the broken love song that feeds your misery.
00:46And I can wish all that I want, but it won't bring us together.
00:53Plus, I know whatever happens to me
00:58I know it's for the better
01:06So...
01:08So...
01:11You learned some new tricks.
01:14Oh, well...
01:15I don't need to know how.
01:22So...
01:25Hmm, about this?
01:27Yeah, I hope it's for her.
01:37Okay?
01:38Yeah.
01:39Do you need anything?
01:40Do you know how much longer it's going to be?
01:42No, it shouldn't be that long.
01:43Okay.
02:02She's gone.
02:14Oh, thank God you're here.
02:16Okay, they're both okay.
02:17Merit's in the back with the doctor.
02:18She has a mild concussion.
02:20Yeah.
02:20Wait, Flora?
02:21Still waiting to be seen.
02:22She's...
02:23She's all right.
02:24Why don't you go check it?
02:24We'll be over here.
02:25Okay.
02:25Yeah.
02:28Hi.
02:29Hey.
02:30Are you okay?
02:32What the hell happened?
02:33They took Jenny's car.
02:35No, that much I know.
02:35I'm sorry.
02:36Merit and I have taken the car out a couple times now, so...
02:39You knew about this?
02:41I know she has her permit, but no, not this.
02:43So what?
02:44They were just out joyriding your car?
02:46They weren't joyriding.
02:47Your son took the car with Flora in it and almost killed them both.
02:50We usually just, like, drive around, but...
02:53Tonight, Merit was upset, and he was...
02:58He was drinking, and I didn't know.
03:01And he's been drinking a lot lately, and he was drunk at the party.
03:06And I should have told Lori, but I...
03:08I just didn't...
03:09I should have told her.
03:10I'm sorry.
03:11I'm so sorry.
03:12Hey.
03:13That's what happened.
03:14I'm so sorry, honey.
03:15No.
03:16I'm sorry.
03:16David.
03:17He's over here.
03:21Oh, my God.
03:23Hi, hi, hi, hi.
03:27Oh, Mary.
03:30Oh.
03:31I don't...
03:31I don't even...
03:32I don't know where to start.
03:35I'm sorry.
03:37I screwed up.
03:42I'll pay Malcolm back for the car.
03:43I'll find...
03:44Mayor, this has...
03:45This goes so far beyond the car.
03:47Hey, you've been lying to us.
03:50You could have died.
03:52I know.
03:53Hey, Flora could have died.
03:55I know.
03:56I get it.
03:57You were drunk.
04:00No, I wasn't.
04:01Oh, you were legally drunk.
04:02They took your blood.
04:04You ran Jenny's car into a lake.
04:08You're going to get a T.U.I.
04:10Lose your license, a minimum.
04:11Do you...
04:12Do you get that?
04:13Okay, David.
04:14Please, just please.
04:15Do you get that?
04:23You have been drinking, okay?
04:25And not just at parties.
04:26So there...
04:27There is a lot...
04:28There are a lot of conversations that...
04:31We will be having.
04:33Okay, but right now...
04:36We're just so thankful that you and Flora are okay.
04:38I mean...
04:56Okay.
04:58Hey.
04:59Hi, uh, Flora left her phone.
05:03Hey, Malcolm.
05:06I'm so sorry.
05:08I had no idea that Merit...
05:10No, I should have been more careful with Jenny's car.
05:12I'm sorry, too.
05:17Hey, uh, where are you parked?
05:18I'll walk you to your car.
05:20Oh, I came with David.
05:22Oh, okay.
05:51I'll go get Casey.
05:52Yeah, give us a minute.
05:57Son, listen to me right now.
06:01This life isn't just yours.
06:05Do you hear me?
06:07What you do affects everyone around you, everyone that cares for you.
06:10Me, your mom, your sister, your friends, your girl, everyone.
06:16I'm telling you this from experience.
06:18I've thrown away so much of my damn life to alcohol.
06:22The idea you will go down that same road, son, like...
06:25I'm not you.
06:25You don't have to be.
06:27It's a disease.
06:30Yeah, well, you got sober and our family still fell apart, so what does it matter?
06:38Thanks for freaking everybody out.
06:40Now they're never going to let me drive, dude.
06:45I'm staying home today.
06:50I'm staying home today.
06:57Laura, the car's going to be okay.
07:00I looked it up.
07:01All you have to do is pull it out with a turn line.
07:03Okay, bud.
07:04It's really cool.
07:05Justin, stop.
07:07We get it.
07:08You know how to use Google.
07:09I'm sorry.
07:19I'm sorry.
07:20Just stay away from Merritt.
07:24You promise me?
07:26Okay.
07:28All right.
07:29Is everybody ready?
07:32Hey, you sure you don't want to stay home tonight?
07:34You can.
07:35Especially after last night.
07:36No, it's okay.
07:37All right.
07:37At least let me give you a lift.
07:38Come on.
07:39I'd really rather walk, Dad.
07:41Clear my head.
07:43All right.
07:45All right.
07:46Okay, kiddos.
07:46Let's go.
07:49There's their work, so just check in with them.
07:52Hey, can you take a look at this?
07:53Yeah, of course.
07:54Oh, shoot.
07:56Oh.
07:57David?
07:59Malcolm.
08:03Oh, bachelor number three.
08:04Well, answer it, woman.
08:08Hey, you.
08:09Hey.
08:10How are you?
08:11What happened?
08:12You said there was a family emergency?
08:13Yeah, um, I apologize for the cryptic alarmist text.
08:19My son actually got into a car accident.
08:22Oh, my God.
08:23Is he...
08:24Yeah, no, no, he's fine.
08:25He's fine.
08:25Everyone is fine.
08:27It just really gave us a scare.
08:29We spent the night in the ER last night, and that's why I didn't call you right away.
08:34I'm so sorry, Laurie.
08:35I'm glad he's okay.
08:36Yeah, it was intense.
08:38But, um, it's all good now.
08:39He's home.
08:41He's fine.
08:41Good.
08:43Well, uh, if it helps, I, uh, I missed you.
08:47It does.
08:49I missed you, too.
08:50I'll take a rain check when you come up for air.
08:52Great.
08:52Thanks for being so understanding.
08:54Yeah.
08:55Are you kidding?
08:56Accidents happen, right?
08:58Um, I'll call you later.
09:00Okay.
09:01Talk to you soon.
09:04So, timeline question.
09:05Oh, can we please not play this game?
09:07Why did you send this cryptic text to Joe before you slept with your ex-husband?
09:13That's what I thought.
09:15I don't know why I did it.
09:18I don't know what it means.
09:21Oh, my God.
09:23He leaked the car?
09:24Yep.
09:25That is so cool.
09:26It's not cool.
09:27I mean, Fleur was in the front of that car.
09:29She could have, like...
09:30Nika, it's on.
09:32Jackson said he and Eli are going to meet us under the stands after practice.
09:36Okay.
09:37Is Eli cool?
09:38Well, he's a freshman in high school.
09:41I don't.
10:04It's coming on Christmas, cutting down trees, putting up rain and totes.
10:12Singin' dear, singin' songs of joy and peace
10:16Oh I wish I had a river, and I could skate away
10:24But you know that it don't snow here
10:28You know it stays pretty green
10:31I'm gonna make a lot of money
10:33And I'm gonna quit this crazy scene
10:37Oh I wish I had a river, and I could skate away
10:47Oh I wish I had a river so long
10:52I would teach my feet to fly
11:02Oh I wish I had a river, and I could skate away
11:38Oh I wish I had a river, and I could skate away
11:40Oh I wish I had a river, and I could skate away
11:41It's okay
11:43It's okay if I cry
11:47You don't always have to fix everything
11:48Okay, but...
11:50No just, just...
11:51Just let me be sad
11:56It's not bad for me to feel this way
12:00I really...
12:01I just... I really need you to be okay with that
12:05I am, you're right
12:07I'm sorry
12:08Okay, okay
12:08Okay, okay
12:10Okay, okay
12:16By the way, I need you to write my Little Women essay over the break
12:20It's due for a day back
12:22Seriously?
12:23Yeah
12:25Just don't make it sound like you
12:35You know what, Dakota?
12:37Write your own essay
12:41For real?
12:44Wow
12:46I don't know why I even listen to Casey
12:49What?
12:51At the thrift store
12:52She totally guilt-tripped me about you
12:55She's even more holier than thou than you are
12:58No
13:00She just doesn't care what other people think about her
13:03Penelope!
13:04No wait, it's fine
13:05No, it's not fine
13:06My sister almost died last night
13:08Do you seriously think that I care about what grade you get in English?
13:14You're not a real friend
13:18Hey coach?
13:19I quit
13:33I can't believe you're going
13:35Merit's gonna be there
13:36So?
13:37I'm not going for him
13:38I'm going for Lori and Casey and David
13:40It's Christmas Eve
13:42We go every year
13:43I don't care
13:43I don't want to see them
13:44I'm staying here
13:48What?
13:48I can't read this
13:50Okay
13:51Don't worry about it
13:52Uh
13:54I'm doing anything for Christmas
13:56The decorating
13:57The cookies
13:57Alright, calm down
13:59The special ingredient
14:00The spice
14:01I think
14:03I can't read it
14:04Well, it can't be all that important
14:06Just make them without it
14:07I can't
14:09It's Mom's recipe
14:10They won't be hard cookies
14:14Please
14:15She told it to me last Christmas
14:17I can't remember what she said
14:21Forget it
14:21Oh
14:22Oh
14:24Justin
14:24Hey
14:25It's okay
14:28Anything that you bake
14:30Will taste great
14:31Yeah, and we'll help you
14:32We'll make our own special ingredient
14:34Yeah
14:35That's what Mom would do
14:36And you'll still have Mom in them
14:39I promise
14:41Okay
14:41Let's do it
14:43Definitely flowers
14:44We have that for sure
14:46Mhm
14:49Dad's here
14:53Hi
14:54Hey, baby
14:56Merry Christmas
14:57Merry Christmas
14:59Merry Christmas
15:00Merry Christmas
15:01Hey
15:02Hey
15:02What?
15:05Hey, buddy
15:08Merry Christmas
15:09Huh?
15:12Merit
15:12What?
15:16I can't believe you invited the Jeffreys
15:18It's like
15:19So awkward
15:20I invited them because we love them
15:22And they love us
15:23And we work through our problems
15:25Uh huh
15:28I'm sorry, but this whole Christmas
15:29Is just feeling
15:30Super fake
15:33I
15:34I know, it's weird
15:35Merit
15:36We're all trying here
15:37How's it gonna work tomorrow?
15:39We get two Christmas mornings
15:40One here and one at your crappy townhouse
15:43Hey
15:43Merit, hey
15:46Look, I'm sorry
15:47I
15:47I hate that you're still this upset, son
15:52Come on, man
15:52Tell me what I can do to make things better
15:54You can stop asking me
15:55How you can make things better
15:57Figure it out yourself
15:59You know, you're the reason Flora and I broke up
16:02You're the reason she hates me now
16:03We were doing great
16:04And then you came over
16:05And you were so worried about her
16:07Not me
16:07You didn't even think about me
16:08Your own son
16:09You just assumed I'd hurt her
16:10Poor innocent Flora
16:13Merit, I'm sorry
16:14Okay, I never meant to like
16:15Don't
16:16Don't worry about it
16:19You're right
16:27No
16:29That was wrong of me
16:31Okay, to put any of that on you
16:33To make you feel
16:38Merit, I'm so proud to be your dad
16:41I am
16:43Do you know how very special you are, son?
16:46I don't want you ever thinking any less of yourself
16:49Because you're not
16:52Mijo
16:54I love you all
16:55I love you all
16:57I love you all
16:59You're hurt
17:00Okay?
17:03I'm sorry
17:16Merry Christmas!
17:18Hi
17:19Should we...
17:20No, come on in
17:21Okay
17:23Hi
17:24Merry Christmas
17:25Where's Penn?
17:27She is...
17:28She's staying home
17:30Yeah
17:31Merry Christmas
17:34Merry Christmas to you too
17:35Hi
17:36Uh, who's hungry?
17:37I am, it smells wonderful
17:38Please, come on
17:39Merry Christmas
17:39Merry Christmas
17:46Okay, I know things are bad between us
17:52And you don't want to talk about it
17:54And I know you're pissed at my brother
17:55I totally...
17:56I am too
17:56But I don't want that to make things even worse
17:58Okay?
17:59So we are gonna talk
18:01Now
18:03Okay?
18:13Let's go for a walk
18:15Okay?
18:18Let's go for a walk
18:22Hey, thanks for saying something to Dakota, by the way
18:24You know, you didn't have to do that
18:25Well, did it help?
18:27No
18:27No, of course not
18:27She's the worst
18:28Oh
18:30Yeah
18:34Penn
18:35Mm-hmm?
18:36I'm really sorry
18:41About how I handled everything with your mom
18:44You know, she was like my second mom
18:47That's how I think of your mom
18:50I didn't really know what to say
18:52I didn't really know what to say
18:52Or do
18:52Or
18:57But I blew it
19:03I'm coming in for the bear hug
19:05I'm coming in
19:09Oh
19:10Oh
19:10Big group hug
19:11Big group hug
19:17You know, I think about your mom like every day
19:24So I should have tried harder
19:26To understand what you've been going through
19:28To understand what you've been going through
19:30It's okay
19:32You know, I don't even understand
19:34I kinda don't want to
19:37And uh, I've just
19:40I think I've been trying not to be me
19:43You know, it's easier to be a cool cheerleader than a sad PK
19:48You know, more fun too
19:51Or
19:51You know, I thought
19:55I'm really sorry Penn
20:03I'm really sorry too
20:08Yeah
20:09So I quit cheer, by the way
20:10Wait, no, you're serious
20:11Actually, you
20:12And uh, no, I don't really know what I'm gonna do instead
20:16But...
20:17Truth?
20:18It really sucks doing it without you
20:22Well, you could always join wrestling
20:24I mean...
20:25I don't know, I think that's all yours
20:26Don't worry
20:28But...
20:28Maybe give more rewatch over Christmas break?
20:31Yes
20:31Let's do it
20:31Yes
20:32Yes, I need more Rory
20:34Oh my gosh
20:35Me too
20:40Justin, these are so good
20:41I can really taste the love
20:42Thank you
20:46Thanks again for helping out with the gala
20:48Oh yeah

21:08I...
21:09I...
21:09I'm sorry
21:11I didn't realize you were having people over
21:13I really should have thought to call for a spot
21:14No, no, it's okay
21:15Do you wanna come inside?
21:16No
21:17No, I...
21:18You already have enough men in your house

21:37I'm just headed to my sister's

21:55Weekend stays a thank you
21:56Oh, wow, it's gorgeous

22:04Uh...

22:06Just the weekend away
22:07No, uh...

22:14Be together
22:16Oh
22:18You don't have to say anything right now
22:20I know it's a big step, but...

23:14Yeah
23:14Yeah
23:16But, um...
23:19I am sorry
23:22Don't ever do anything like that again
23:26Okay?

23:40Okay, alright, get out
23:41Okay!
23:41Oh, you know you love me four things
23:43Yeah, I love you too
23:44I love you too
23:55What? What's up?
23:57Well, I wasn't gonna bring this up
23:58But, uh...
24:00After that fun little cup of Joe drug but it just happened
24:02I thought I'd...
24:05Ask, you know, what the deal is
24:08So...
24:08You guys are still seeing each other?
24:10Yes
24:11But you slept with me
24:14Yes
24:15What was that?
24:18Old habits
24:20Okay
24:21Okay, well old habits aren't all bad
24:23I mean, I like that old habit
24:25Maybe we'll make it a new habit
24:28I... David knew it was nice
24:31Okay, it was more than nice
24:33It was probably necessary
24:35Lori, it doesn't mean anything
24:37Okay
24:37It happened, right?
24:38It is what it is
24:39Yeah
24:40But that wasn't just a hookup for me
24:42That was about one thing
24:43You
24:46I miss you
24:47You miss me
24:50Now you miss me
24:51My timing's always sucked
24:55I'm not gonna say that there isn't a part of me
24:58That misses you
25:00Clearly there is
25:03But I'm pretty confident that you and I sleeping together
25:07Was a step backwards
25:09Not forward
25:16I'm sorry
25:18No
25:19No
25:19No, I'm sorry
25:21Okay
25:21We should go
25:24What...
25:28Why don't you stay here tonight?
25:30Not with me
25:31I mean on the couch
25:34And then you could be here in the morning
25:36For the kids
25:39Thank you
25:41That'd be amazing
25:42Yeah
25:49For God so loved the world
25:51That he gave his only son
25:52So that everyone who believes in him
25:54May not perish
25:55But may have eternal life
25:59Thank you, Pastor Harris
26:03John 316
26:05This year my heart brings me to this
26:07This simple verse
26:09This humble, beautiful sacrifice
26:11That God would send his only son
26:15So that we could have eternal life with him
26:18What a gift
26:19In such a small package
26:21What...
26:22Hope and peace and joy
26:24And love
26:28You know, I've been thinking
26:30About all the packages under the Jeffrey's tree
26:32All the...
26:33Wrapped gifts
26:34Piled up there this year
26:35I'm guessing...
26:36Guessing your trees are probably the same
26:39And how tomorrow morning
26:40We will be sitting there surrounded
26:42By a sea of wrapping paper
26:44And open gifts
26:47But Christ's gift to us
26:49The real gift of Christmas
26:51Is eternal
26:53Unwrapped not once
26:54But over and over again
26:56Opened not just tomorrow morning
26:58But every day
26:59Friends, Christmas is holy
27:03About God's love
27:04I encourage you
27:06To celebrate his gift to us
27:08God sacrificed
27:09His only son for us
27:11Live in honor of that gift
27:13That sacrifice
27:14Put love and care for others
27:16Ahead of self
27:17Live that gift
27:19Live that sacrifice
27:22Amen
27:22Amen
27:23Amen
27:37What are you...
27:38What are you doing here?
27:39Where are you going?
27:41I, uh...
27:43I can't...
27:45I can't...
27:46I can't listen
27:49Um...
27:50I...
27:54I feel...
27:56So...
27:56So awful
27:59That night
28:02When you asked me to come over
28:05The reason I didn't
28:09I was...
28:09I was drunk
28:12I wanted to be with you
28:13I...
28:14I...
28:14I really...
28:15I really did
28:16I...
28:17I'm like...
28:19Dad...
28:24I got scared
28:30And I ruined everything
28:32I'm so sorry
28:35Hey, hey, hey
28:37It's...
28:38It's good that you feel awful
28:40I mean...
28:41It's...
28:42It's good to feel awful
28:45It...
28:45It is...
28:46Yeah, hey, trust me
28:48Feeling something is so much better than feeling nothing
28:56And you're not alone
28:57I'm...
28:58I'm your friend
29:01I...
29:02I do want you in my life, Larry
29:10I'm sorry
29:11Well...
29:13With our families, it's not like you really have a choice
29:19Yeah...
29:20Yeah...
29:21I mean, you know...
29:28Oh...
29:37What a holy night
29:39How blessed we are with these gifts of Christmas
29:43Hope...
29:44And peace
29:48And joy...
29:50And love
30:04Merry Christmas, Dad
30:06Merry Christmas, Laura
30:07Merry Christmas, Laura
30:08Thank you
30:20O holy night
30:24The stars are brightly shining
30:29It is the night of our dear Saviour's birth
30:39Long lay the world
30:43With sin and error pining
30:48Till he appeared
30:51And the soul felt its worth
30:57A thrill of hope
31:01The weary world rejoices
31:06For yonder reigns
31:10A new and glorious morn
31:15Fall on your knees
31:22O hear the angel voices
31:33You know
31:36Him
31:38All a holy night
31:41When Christ was born
31:45A night
31:49O holy night
31:53O night
31:57O holy night
32:02Merry Christmas.
32:07Hey, bud.
32:08Merry Christmas.
32:09Merry Christmas.
32:13Come on, all righty.
32:15All right.
32:16Hey, no presents until Coco, Mom's rule.
32:19Gotcha.
32:20Gotcha.
32:21There you go.
32:21Careful.
32:22Boom.
32:23Let's take it hot.
32:24Kind of.
32:25Okay.
32:25Anyway, you guys, you guys always used to get up so early on Christmas morning.
32:32I don't know how she did it, but somehow your mom always managed to beat you downstairs.
32:37I have Coco waiting.
32:51All right, Justin.
32:53Let's open some presents, huh?
32:54Come on.
32:55Show me what we got.
32:57Okay.
32:58It's calling my name.
33:00Oh.
33:01Is it?
33:02Oh, you're right.
33:03Okay, that's the first one.
33:04You're right.
33:04Okay, wait.
33:04Let me take one.
33:05It's a pretty good haul.
33:11Actually, there's one more.
33:14What did you do?
33:16What?
33:16Come on.
33:23I didn't say anything.
33:25I didn't say anything.
33:30You said you always wanted one.
33:32Oh.
33:33Oh, my gosh.
33:34David.
33:37There's a lot of things I should have done a long time ago, Lori.
33:40But it's not too late for me to start doing them now.
33:44It's not too late for us.
33:47Um, this is very sweet.
33:51But...
33:54I'm not the same person I used to be, Lori.
33:57David, you...
33:59You are barely two months sober.
34:04I'll always be an alcoholic.
34:08I'm always going to be in recovery.
34:12You know, my sponsor said,
34:14shame doesn't help anything.
34:16He's right.
34:19I don't want to beat myself up anymore.
34:22I don't want to go backwards.
34:25Living alone these last few months,
34:26I've realized I've taken everything.
34:28I took the kids.
34:29I took you.
34:30I took it all for granted.
34:32I'm not going to do that again,
34:33no matter what happens here.
34:36Listen to me.
34:39I can be happy again, Lori.
34:42We can be together again.
34:43We just need to decide to do it.
34:48It's not that simple.
34:52Isn't it?
34:57Why didn't you say all this stuff a year ago?
35:01I wasn't here a year ago.
35:07I am now.
35:24What's this one?
35:26I don't know.
35:27Oh.
35:28That was under the Christmas decorations and stuff.
35:31I thought it was from you, Dad.
35:33No, not from me.
35:34Let's see.
35:41Why don't you open it?
36:04Merry Christmas, love, Mom.
36:21There's something for everyone.
36:23Did you know about this?
36:35It's Mom's jewelry box.
36:53Except for me.
37:11Here, let me.
37:14There we go.
37:15Come on.
37:16Come on.
37:31It's you.
37:33It's you.
37:34It's me.
37:34It's me.
37:43It's me.
37:47I think he likes Christmas better.
37:51Say hi to Daddy, Justin.
37:54Say hi to Daddy.
37:55Say hi to Daddy.
38:00I know, I know, it's okay.
38:02Look at how happy you made her.
38:11It's from my mom.
38:12Pen.
39:24Bye, Mommy.
40:02My dearest Malcolm, Merry Christmas.
40:07How I wish I was there to celebrate with our beautiful children, with you.
40:15My gift for you is my hope for your future.
40:20A hope that you find love again.
40:25Someone who loves our kids as much as we do.
40:32Someone who shares your faith, who loves God as we do.
40:38Someone who truly, deeply cares for you.
40:44Someone you love.
40:47Someone who loves you.
40:51My dearest Malcolm, this is my hope and my peace and my joy.
40:57My love.
41:44Hi.
41:45Hi.
41:45I was just thinking.
41:47I mean, I can't believe you're here.
41:50Oh, I need to talk to you.
41:52I need to talk to you.
41:53I am so confused, Malcolm.
41:56Well, I'm not.
41:57Not anymore.
41:58You know, the other day, a few weeks ago, you said that we aren't good for each other.
42:03But that couldn't be further from the truth.
42:06You're nothing but good for me.
42:11I love you, Lori.
42:14And I know that scares you to hear.
42:15So before you run back inside, I just, I want to say it's not because I'm lonely.
42:19Or because I'm grieving.
42:21Or because I'm frightened of the future.
42:23Or that we're easy.
42:25I mean, come on, who are we kidding?
42:26You and I are definitely not easy.
42:28It's because you are the person.
42:33You're the person that I want to spend every day and every night with.
42:43Are you going to say something?
42:49No.
43:10I am so confused, Malcolm.
43:14I don't know what to do.
43:16Like, because on the one hand, I have this new guy, Joe, and he's totally into me.
43:21And, you know, I'm pretty into him, too.
43:23And he wants to, like, take me away on vacations and spend all the time with me that I'll let
43:30him.
43:31And he's, like, all potential, you know?
43:34Like, an unknown.
43:37But I...
43:41I slept with David the other night.
43:45David?
43:46Uh, I thought you and Joe...
43:47No, I know, I know.
43:48It was totally fear-based and probably, like, self-destructive, you know?
43:53But then, Malcolm, he wants back in.
43:57And he's saying all these things.
43:59If he had said them sooner, but he didn't.
44:03And I know that, but he's the father of my children, right?
44:09And he is a known quantity.
44:11Like, I woke up this morning, and I saw them with him.
44:17And I don't know, maybe he's right.
44:19Maybe it's not too late for us to be a family again.
44:30Laurie, I can't...
44:31I can't tell you what to do.
44:33Well, I know.
44:36But could you anyway?
44:39Uh, trust yourself.
44:42You know, you'll find your way forward.
44:47Oh, I'm sorry.
44:48I'm doing all the talking.
44:49You came to me.
44:50What did you want to talk about?
44:53I just, uh, I wanted to say Merry Christmas.
44:59Merry Christmas.
45:01You want to come in?
45:02No, no, no, no.
45:03I should get back.
45:04Okay.
45:07Good night.
45:08Get in there.
45:10No, it's for the better.
45:17No, it's for the better.
45:21No, it's for the better.
45:24No, it's for the better.
45:28No, it's for the better.
45:31No, it's for the better.
45:32No, it's for the better.
45:33No, it's for the better.
45:34No, it's for the better.
45:34No, it's for the better.
