00:01So I ask you again, are you drugging us?
00:05It's called micro-dosing and it's perfectly safe.
00:08You could go to jail for this.
00:10You know, some drugs, they can really help people.
00:14They're watching us.
00:16And the threats, they wouldn't be coming from you, would they?
00:18Why would I want to threaten Marsha? She's the fucking greatest.
00:21You get violent.
00:23Yep, you know.
00:25Tomorrow's your 21st birthday. It's his 21st birthday.
00:29We weren't close. Oh, I don't believe that.
00:31Many of us have actually been damaged by other people.
00:36I'm a drug addict.
00:38I got two kids that don't talk to me.
00:40I got a career that ended in a blink.
00:42Why am I here?
01:00You've got this strange effect on me
01:07And I like it
01:10You've got this strange effect on me
01:17And I like it
01:20You make my world seem right
01:28You make my darkness bright
01:32Oh yes, you've got this strange effect on me
01:39And I like it
01:45And I like it
01:50And I like it
01:57And I like it
02:28Are you okay?
02:30No! No!
02:32Are you okay?
02:34No!
02:58Just water.
03:12Just two comments, one question.
03:15First, happy birthday.
03:18Second, not your fault.
03:22Okay, now for my question.
03:24Why do you keep telling people we weren't close?
03:26You're not real.
03:30I'm standing right here, Zoe.
03:37See? Couldn't do that with a ghost.
03:41Hey, you can hug me now.
03:44This is so fucked.
03:45Well, yeah, it could be so fucked.
03:47Could be a dream.
03:49Could definitely be that, I don't know, smoothie you had at dinner.
03:52Point is, I'm here.
03:54Okay, what did dad always say?
03:56Celebrate every moment, big or small,
03:58because the moment may not be last.
04:04Now, I do need you to listen to me very, very closely, okay?
04:07Okay, what?
04:10Don't tell people we weren't close.
04:13Okay? You're my only legacy other than, you know.
04:19I miss you every single day.
04:24Every single day.
04:26I know.
04:28I'm so lonely.
04:34I didn't know what it felt like to be lonely,
04:37because I always had you.
04:43I know.
04:45I know.
04:54Zoe?
05:00Oh, hey. I heard a noise.
05:03And I heard you talking.
05:06Yeah, I guess I was just talking to myself.
05:09What about?
05:12I miss it.
05:17Happy birthday.
05:25This could be rough.
05:27You think?
05:41We can do this.
06:12Oh.
06:15The trauma that you've witnessed.
06:19I should have been more attentive to you.
06:24But you're so strong, I forget.
06:31I'm still a work in progress, you know.
06:34Forgive me.
06:36My love is debilitating.
06:41Yeah, too.
06:51I got chills, they're multiplying
06:55And I'm losing control
06:59Cause the power you're supplying
07:03It's electrifying
07:05Happy birthday

08:13Oh, yeah, because mine were no I had I had an amazing dream. No, I was a beetle I
08:21Kid you not one of the fab four while playing in Shades Stadium in front of her sold-out 50,000 people
08:29Hold on you were a beetle
08:31What yeah, I was I could feel what it was like to actually be a beetle
08:37I
08:38Whatever's in these they keep them coming. All right
08:42Which beetle I think I was John
08:44I mean, I never saw myself, but John wasn't there and I was singing a ballad with Paul Charlie
08:49Sing a verse for you now
08:54We were singing something which is
08:59That's a George song technically I had a dream logic I suppose but we we found these wonderful harmonies
09:06I
09:17Guess that triggered me. I don't know why it was a beautiful wedding and it's it's a lovely song
09:25Folks don't lie. Okay
09:33That's all you need
09:36a
09:38Spoon
09:41Cereal
09:45Morning sorry, I'm late if I am late
09:51Head maybe maybe I'm too well rested
09:58Is this just
10:01Straight up or is it lace with something? It's just oatmeal
10:05Yeah, okay
10:08Okay team listen up. Let's quickly go over today's schedule. Wait, I want to hear Larson's drink because it sounded good
10:22You must know I gave birth
10:26What do you mean you gave birth just as I said and you were all there it was quite insane but
10:34kind of beautiful
10:45You gave birth baby burn
10:47No epidural. I'm tougher than I look and we were all there you especially Tony seems that you were the father
10:58Still see it like vividly
11:01Beautiful baby boy
11:04And
11:06You know what Tony you cried like a baby yourself
11:11You had a son you kept saying you never thought you'd see the day and
11:15You began to weep
11:20The fucking lunatic, you know that Lars yeah, I know so it's good to get a second opinion
11:25I think hey Francis. Yeah
11:28Yeah
11:31You have a visitor I
11:33Do they've come all the way from Canada? Did you say Canada?
11:39Yes. Yeah
11:42Should I take you to him?
11:53How do I even begin to say I'm sorry
11:57You don't Paul
12:01Francis
12:04You said you were 6-1
12:06Just started lying right out of the gates. Well, I didn't lie about my loving you
12:14What about Ari
12:16Did he really need surgery?
12:19Do you even have a son?
12:21Or is that just part of the scam to get my money? I thought you might say that so I brought a check here
12:26Payment in full plus interest. I've been trying to reach you for days. And when you wouldn't respond I hopped on a plane
12:33Your agent said I could find you here
12:39Well, they confiscate our phones here so I have no way of knowing if you actually were trying to contact me I
12:48Don't understand why you just went silent
12:52I sent you the money and then it's just like
12:55He's fell off the face of the earth, which is why I assumed you were
12:59scamming me more fake
13:01ironic, I
13:03Became convinced that you were the fake
13:05Me why?
13:07Well, how do I say this? I
13:10Read your books all of them. There's not a hint of truth to be found in any of them. They're so gimmicky
13:18What yeah, I mean you don't dig in you just take a little bit of romance and a
13:24Topical cocktail of your choice sexism ageism racism ableism. There's no story at all. There's just
13:30Isms, that's not what I do
13:32That's not what you do when you write a whole story
13:35I don't have to explain this to you, but it's not what I do
13:37Are you saying that you ghosted me because you didn't like my books? I couldn't stand your books
13:42I don't know how anyone could do that
13:44Like my books I couldn't stand your books
13:47I don't know how anyone could possibly stand your books and I panicked I thought oh my god
13:53I've fallen in love with a total and utter hack
13:56I came all the way here at considerable expense to myself to prove
14:00Otherwise that you're worthy of my love that you're a significant dimensional being
14:05Albeit someone who literally just cannot write a lick
14:10Francis
14:11Things could have been so good between us. If only I hadn't have read your kill him dreadful. Let's do it
14:26I think maybe you're giving her like too much about stuff
14:30Okay, I suddenly got sleepy
14:34You guys get sleepy. Maybe we start to reduce your dose. Yeah, you think maybe yeah, never mind
14:40Fuck never mind, man. She just passed out in her breakfast. I mean not be feeling on your percent. What is on my
14:47Face. Oh, yeah. Why is there no mail my face took a header into your breakfast?
14:53I'm sure that I'm okay, right?
14:57Did I have a visitor come see me that actually happened? No, we don't allow visitors Francis
15:05Okay
15:06Well, then I must have been hallucinating as all because I also thought that you'd given birth to a baby
15:12How that part did happen in my dreams?
15:16Tony was enough already. Okay, I don't think I'm feeling great cuz I'm finding this very confusing
15:27Okay, well it's not exactly appropriate therapist behavior, but we'll table it come on
15:32Was it at least Quaker oats because that's my favorite oatmeal, you know, I lost my virginity
15:39to a Quaker
15:41Tender and loving
15:44Almost mushy
15:46Like he's oatmeal. Okay, come on. Let's go to bed. I mean what let's go to your room. How much are you giving her?
15:53I'll wait don't tell me I should fuck off too, right? Hmm. I
15:59Think I will share a quote from Maya Angelou if you don't mind today is a wonderful day
16:05I've never seen one like this before
16:10Fabulous quote D fabulous
16:18I got back there. I
16:20Got it. No, I could do this myself
16:23I mean they like I like you doing it, but for the record, okay, I'm capable. I got you
16:32Just can't believe how real it seemed, you know, he was just there Paul was
16:40Standing there in front of me brought me flowers
16:47But
16:50But but what there's a lot of truth and when he said about
16:55my books
16:56just shallow takes and you know, whatever the flavor of the moment is and I
17:02Shove some romance into it
17:07They're hollow
17:09Maybe I'm hollow
17:12Well, he was right I can't write
17:15Hey look at me
17:17You can write
17:20Look at me. I know you can write. Okay. Yeah. I read a snippet. It was good shit
17:30You may not play football now, but but you could I bet you were really something
17:39Let me I never have been
17:45Oh
17:53You're gonna vomit I'm gonna go
17:55I
18:11Think you asked to see me. Mm-hmm. Shit, please
18:21I hear you told Tony to fuck off
18:26I'll apologize apologies are good
18:32And I think I owe you an apology
18:36Recently I've been meditating I've been
18:41Seeing your face
18:45What you went through with Connelly
18:48I
18:50Underestimate the trauma that you have been through I am sorry for this. I'm fine
18:57Are you back on your dosage
19:03What draws from psilocybin they can render you dangerous
19:07Meaning what?
19:09You think I'm the one sending you death threats
19:18We are on the precipice of something great
19:23Stay with me stay together. Yeah
19:29Tell me what do you need? I'm fine. You're fine
19:37Talk to me
19:39Okay
19:42Actually, I need you to stop fucking you
19:48You
19:51Think he's capable of making that adjustment. Yeah, I don't know
19:57That's why I need you to make that adjustment for him
20:01And are you capable of making that adjustment I
20:06Am
20:17I think so
20:26I'm proud of you. You came here. You were broken and now
20:31You know what you want you say what you want I had help
20:47I'll show you how can't ever know. No, he's never gonna know
20:53He never did know he never won't know
21:13Ma
21:18Wow, that was good straight from the diaphragm
21:33Even better you were giving birth
21:38Very funny you want to talk about that? No, what's there to talk about? It was just a crazy situation
21:44It's what broke up my relationship
21:48He wants to have a child and his sister even volunteered to be the surrogate I just
21:54I
21:55Don't go there. Why not? I mean, you know besides
21:59Overpopulation and imminent apocalypse. I just think the world's a tough place for a kid right now
22:05I
22:07Don't go there. Why not? I mean, you know besides
22:10Overpopulation and imminent apocalypse. I just think the world's a tough place for a kid right now
22:18Was it a tough place for you as a child
22:24I
22:26Was bullied I
22:28I knew very early on that I was gay
22:31As did the other kids
22:33As did my father
22:37Hydepool was not in his DNA to have a homosexual child. Certainly not
22:43And
22:44Then in the end he left her
22:48No, I I suspect he was more fleeing me his genetically flawed offspring
23:08I
23:10Thought came to me last night
23:13What?
23:15Yeah, I was in my bathroom and he just appeared and
23:19It wasn't a dream. He was there
23:23He was as real as he ever was
23:27Did you tell your parents about this no
23:32Figured that couldn't handle it
23:34No
23:36Fragile day
23:39Yes, you shouldn't be alone with this I'm not alone
23:54Don't be ridiculous. Oh, yeah, that's very safe. It doesn't look very safe. Yeah, it's gonna be

25:36Mean, okay, I would but but on this it is so exhilarating such a shot of adrenaline of life
25:44I'm terrified. That's part of it. Isn't it? You do something that scares you
25:49It's like the John Burroughs quote leap and the net shall appear. It means take that plunge go for it
25:55I remember this mountain climber Polly and shut up. I'm up here. It's happening

28:30I really hate that money
28:33There's just no going back right
28:36You know, that's
28:38That's what what do you say? We go all to bunch palms on each other the gold days
28:48Silver I'm the first time I asked you out

30:12More importantly
30:14The oxys weren't just for my knee
30:17But numbing a lot of shit for a lot of years

31:16I think maybe it's exactly where you need to be
31:21You're a good person Francis, I know I keep saying that but it's never said that really I keep saying that
31:28Repeatedly hoping it'll you know, catch on I knew I heard it somewhere
31:38Every time I close my eyes here. I just I just I keep on seeing those things that I don't want to face
31:45Every fucking mistake that I ever made
31:50Maybe you just shouldn't close your eyes
31:54I'm not sure. I want any of this bad enough Francis
31:59I'm not gonna make it
32:03What do you mean you're not gonna you're not gonna make it where it's at the end of the week the end of the year

33:56Just I get sick of it
33:58Yeah, me too
34:00sick of what
34:02It's pretending
34:04Pretending to be okay. Okay with me. Okay with his happy life pretending to be happy for the sake of my kids
34:12happy happy like it doesn't bother me to see see
34:16Married couples even unhappy ones doing what married couples do like fucking in a fucking hot tub. Why should that trigger me?
34:23Why does it take me over that my ex and his pretty young thing are fucking all over Florence that
34:28She's probably flossing her teeth with little pencil dick right now while my kids are in the next room
34:34Why does it?
34:37Can I even hear reference to my wedding song without wanting to set the table I'm just I'm sick of it
34:42I am I'm sick of all of it
34:46Don't you look at me like like don't stare at me like I'm a fucking psycho. All right, which I
34:53probably am
34:55Carmel
34:58Listen to me
35:00I've spent most of my adult life in psychotherapy. I could literally be the camp counselor here. Honestly
35:10What you need to do is
35:13Dissociate from him hating him has its benefits stabbing him even better
35:19But dissociation is the only lasting cure
35:22You
35:28Do it the old-fashioned way
35:31You meet someone new and you will
35:34Because you are a vibrant beautiful woman
35:39I
35:41Am giving you that because it's true. Okay
35:44Not only that but you're passionate
35:47You're a passionate vibrant beautiful woman my god Carmel this whole world of men waiting out there for you
36:02God what is it Masha putting in your smoothies?
36:08I know right
36:11Creeping myself out
36:14Hmm
36:17Hmm
36:23Come on I thought you were going to the hot springs not after what you told me absolutely
36:34Happy birthday
36:43You have to make a wish first
36:47I
36:56Like to make toast
37:00First to Zack who I really wish was here right now
37:05And would be cringing so hard at this speech. It was definitely definitely his thing
37:13Yeah, happy birthday Zack
37:17You
37:20Know yesterday
37:22my parents said that we could leave if I didn't want to be stuck here on my birthday, but
37:27The truth is I really wouldn't want to be anywhere else
37:31Believe it or not. Maybe maybe it's a smoothies, but
37:37You guys are all really starting to feel like family to me I don't know how the
37:48But I don't know no
37:50Nobody's really treated me like a person for the past three years. Um
37:58They've treated me like a patient and
38:02Definitely a victim but
38:05Not really as a person so
38:10Sorry, I'm just really grateful for you guys and I've made friends here
38:17Um
38:19No one should be alone on their birthday, and I'm not I got you weirdos
38:26But let's not forget
38:28No, good deed goes unpunished and as far as punishments go
38:34There is a tradition on my birthday
38:37and
38:39It pains me to say that it is my father singing
38:42I've been singing this song to my kids since they were a little what?
38:47And
38:48never mind and
38:51It's become as Zoe says
38:53Sort of a birthday tradition when you can dance to if you're so inclined
