Ryan?
Perfect.
Norman, you scared me.
Did you leave that door open or is your Daddy home?
Ryan
Fuck me!
Roman.
Jesus.
I thought you were Ryan.
Here.
Do you know where Ryan is?
He's getting in on the 10:30 Ferry.
Wants you to pick him up.
He called. I guess you were busy.
Got it.
Oh baby.
What's all this?
Come on, I'll drive.
...just the fact that Jim gave me the case.
I mean there are five other guys he could've given it to,
but, he handed it to me. Hi baby.
Miranda is insanely jealous.
What's in your pocket?
You haven't listened to a word I've said have you?
Yeah, five guys... Miranda's insanely jealous.
What's in the pocket?
Open it.
It's your mother's old silver chain.
Ryan, it's beautiful.
That's paper inside.
Paper?
Paper for...
Our first anniversary.
Oh my god, it's tonight.
- I don't even know what to say. - Don't worry, you've been so busy.
No, please. Don't make excuses for me.
I will make this up to you.
You promise to do ...
What's on the paper?
My love for you.
Sealed forever.
It's pretty dark out there huh?
Oh my God!
I love it.
I love you.
You're welcome.
Thanks for telling me.
He made me promise.
Sneak.
You do everything your big brother tells you?
Yeah right.
I'm I'd listened to him, I wouldn't be such a fuck up
and you two never would've met.
Can't fault you on that one.
Alright.
- I'm gonna get outta your hair. - No, no. No rush.
I uh... I gotta go change anyway.
Uh...
Thanks, big man.
It really looks beautiful.
I'm sorry about earlier.
Please don't smoke in the house.
Roman.
You want one?
No.
You know I promised Ryan.
What's that?
Paper?
It's cute.
# No I can't save you
# You're on your own
# No I just can't help...
Things get too busy on the couch to call?
I was doing something for my brother.
Oh yeah?
Am I gonna meet this brother of yours?
It's not likely.
Thornton Wilder wrote, "There's a land of the living,"
"and a land of the dead."
"And the bridge is love."
"The only survival, and the only meaning."
My Mom would have loved you.
Well, of course. You said she had good taste.
You know, you can't ever leave me.
No matter how bad a wife I am.
You're a perfect wife.
Liar.
You know we wanted to be pregnant by now.
I can't take that kind of time off work right now.
Besides,
we need my income.
That's not an issue. Come on.
I don't know if I'm ready.
What if we lose us?
Jess.
You will never lose me.
So what was it like in prison?
It's actually not so cracked out to be.
If you could start your life over, what would you do different?
Be someone else.
That's sad, Roman.
Anyone can change.
Change is a choice, you know?
Change is a choice? Where'd you read that?
Just made it up.
So when will I see you again?
Hard to say.
You're not going to do anything stupid are you?
See, right there!
That's what it's like being me!
Everyone always thinks I'm up to something.
I wonder why.
You're sexy when you work.
Norman.
Right, hang on.
Lucky coin.
Damn it.
You know, no one ever died from taking a day off.
It broke. I don't know what happened.
Oh, it's ok. I'll fix it.
Unless you forget where you put it.
Don't you worry, I'll find a perfectly safe place for it.
We're out of juice.
Norman.
Come on.
When are we getting our house back?
Jess, come on.
I'm serious.
Look, I feel bad enough about what my Dad did already.
Everybody's always giving Roman a raw deal.
He's my brother. I'm not gonna do that.
I didn't mean it like that.
It's just... I know you don't see it but...
He scares me.
And I don't trust him.
Remember, I'm the one that caught him snooping in our bedroom.
Come on, Jess.
He's not a bad person.
I plead his case.
I know exactly how bad he is.
I can't do this for another 18 months.
We need to get him into a halfway house.
Alright. As soon as we find a place, he's out of here.
Hello.
Hey.
I think Roman is pulling some kind of stunt.
What're you talking about?
Well, he just tore out of here in his car
and he took all his stuff with him.
Ryan, you know he's not allowed to leave the state.
Alright, I'm coming back.
They both suffered total cardiac arrest.
Paramedics revived them on their way in
but there were no signs of cognitive response from either one.
- We're assessing... - Which one is my husband?
Can he hear me?
It's possible.
We really can't tell at this stage.
"Casey"
Do you want a chair?
No, I'm not gonna stay long.
Not sure if he'd want me to.
I'm sure he appreciates it.
Anything happens, you'll let me know?
Either way.
Of course.
You're sweet.
Just like he said.
Mrs. Bryson?
Can we speak for a moment?
We can keep your husband on the machine
so long as there is lower brain function.
And we will keep monitoring but...
It's been three weeks now.
What are you saying?
The chances of him waking are very small.
Like what?
There's no way of telling.
It could be months.
It could be years.
If he wakes at all.
I'm very sorry.
I miss you so much.
I miss hearing your voice.
I dream about it.
And then I wake up, and...
I can't remember what you sound like.
We got about 50-50 chance of this thing working out.
Would you look at that?
What? What am I looking at?
Jess?
You know, if...
If you're not ready for this...
Umm...
I am. Just... give me a minute.
Okay.
Mr. Bryson, are you alright?
Can you hear me?
He's on Seconal, making him very disoriented.
But they said he was asking for you.
Any problems with your vision?
No.
Your hearing?
There's a...
buzzing in my ears.
I'm cold. I can't seem to get warm.
Tell me something about yourself.
Something you remember.
My wedding.
So you're married?
I don't see a ring on your finger.
Jess.
I don't know what this is.
What happened?
Mr. Bryson?
Jess, it's me.
There's nothing physical to explain the disorientation and memory loss.
It should all come back to him rather quickly.
The fact that he woke up,
does that mean my husband could do the same thing?
He sustained very different injuries.
I'm afraid your husband's condition has not changed.
He's still in shock.
The Haloperidol is to keep his delusions to a minimum.
But he's been awake in a strange environment for 3 weeks.
What he really needs right now, is the familiarity of his own home.
His home?
Clearview Street, that's where he was before the accident.
You're his closest living relative.
You'll have to take him home.
Hi.
Let's go.
Hey Norm, come here.
Hey Norman.
Hey, what's up boy?
Norm, stop it!
In here.
You alright?
I'm fine.
Thornton Wilder wrote, "There's a land of the living,"
"and a land of the dead."
"And the bridge is Love"
"The only survival, and the only meaning."
I love this part.
Jess...
No, dont!
Don't say my name like that.
What do you want from me?
I'm scared.
I don't know what's happening and...
Come with me.
This, is your bed.
Okay? These, are your things.
This is your life,
and I'm not part of it.
- Jess, please listen. - No, don't touch me!
Something happened to me in that accident.
Look...
I don't blame you for what happened to Ryan okay?
- Please... - I just want you to get better,
and move on.
I would just, kick him out.
- I can't do that, Miranda. - Why not?
The guy's done time for assault along with God knows what else.
He's dangerous. You of all people should know that.
- Ryan wouldn't want me to. - Sorry I didn't mean...
No, it's okay.
I know you're right.
Look babe, all I'm saying is, you have to do something.
You can't live like this.
Alright?
Thanks for doing this.
It'll be good for him to see you.
How's he doing?
He's... not really himself yet.
No shit.
You left it at my place.
Figured you'd... erm... want it back.
You must be a friend of Roman's.
Look, I knew you'd still be pissed.
I'm sorry... I really,
really don't know you.
What? Like at all?
I'm sorry.
Want one?
I don't smoke.
What the hell are you doing?
I want us to talk.
Fine, Roman. Talk.
Don't call me that.
I've been trying to figure this out.
Trying to...
remember things.
And it's like, everything's there but,
it all happened a hundred years ago.
Remember the storm in Cancun?
The alabaster hair barrette you lost in Maui?
We searched the ocean for hours.
Remember when we went to Pastis and
the waiter spilled a bottle of Barolo all over my white shirt?
- No. - Sarah's at Kentucky?
- Why are you doing this? - Because I have no choice.
These are my memories.
Jess...
I love you.
- No, no you don't. - You're my wife.
Stop it!
I don't know what he's doing but he's lying to you.
And you can't let him get to you.
What if it's real?
- Jess... - No, I mean it!
What if I could have him back?
What if I could do things right this time?
He was in an accident.
It's not your fault.
He used to write me love letters.
Every week.
And I never wrote him back.
I'd just let them pile up like... IOUs.
I had the perfect life and...
didn't matter how many people told me. I...
...took it for granted.
Thought he'd always be there.
Jess...
He's not gone.
Sorry, I uh...
My hands are not...
...working right.
I...
I have something for you.
I fixed it.
Norman.
You are disappearing...
You are becoming nothing....
You will hear nothing but the sound of my voice.
When your heart slows down...
... so will your thoughts.
... five ...
... four ...
... three ...
... two ...
... one.
I want you to go back to the day of the accident.
Where are you?
What can you see?
White.
Fog.
What else?
Driving.
Relax.
Go back... Go back.
Where are you now?
Birthday.
Whose name is on the cake?
Ryan.
Are you Ryan?
Who are you?
I'm hurting.
Say your name.
Roman.
I see Roman.
Say your name.
Give me your name.
Give me your one true name.
Clear!
Give me your real name!
Jess!
Take care of Ryan on his journey.
I so scared, David.
I don't wanna believe this.
You can't give up hope, Jessica.
You and Ryan have something...
... spectacular.
A connection most people will never know.
Who are we to place limits on what that can accomplish?
Jess...
You know Ryan better than anyone.
I think you're asking a question only you can answer.
I can't be Roman.
Get out!
Please don't send me back in there.
I keep getting these headaches.
I feel nauseous.
I'm afraid if I lie back down on that bed, I'm not gonna wake up again.
I can't do this.
It's too much.
Even if...
I need you to go away.
Roman?
Please...
If that's what you want, I'll do it.
You ready?
Where're we going?
You don't remember this place?
Things we used to do?
Look, if you really don't care about me, then why are you even here?
She asked me to talk to you.
Come on, hit me.
I know you want to. Come on.
She doesn't like you.
You scare her. You don't have a chance.
I'm not buying it, Roman! I know who you are!
Happy Anniversary.
When we took this picture,
you whispered something to me.
There was an old couple in the park and...
... and when I looked at them, I could only think one thing.
Our future.
Ryan... Ryan...
Hey.
What's wrong?
Nothing.
Just had a bad dream.
Everything's perfect.
When you were gone,
I promised myself that if you ever came back,
I would change.
And be a better person.
A better wife.
I'm back.
Yes?
Never realized how short you actually are.
Funny huh?
No, no!
Are you okay?
Hey, what's wrong?
I'll be alright.
He had a seizure.
We were able to stablize him almost immediately.
But now his involuntary body functions are weakening.
His heart is still beating but...
... if his condition deteriorates,
there's no way of knowing how he would react to another episode like this.
He's suffering.
That used to be you in there.
Maybe in some way, he still is.
I just think we should do what's best for him.
We don't know what that is.
We have no idea what will happen if we turn that machine off.
I'm sorry.
I can't risk it.
I can't lose you again.
Damn it...
Hey there, potty mouth.
Hey.
Didn't hear you come in.
Are you happy?
- I couldn't be happier. - Yeah?
Casey.
Yeah, I was wondering why you never got back to me.
Guess this would do it.
You do this?
Yeah.
Never did one of me.
My brother must've treated you very badly.
I hate you.
No matter what you do to me, I can't change the way I feel about you.
Anyone can change.
Anyone can change?
Change is a choice, right Roman?
Right?
I feel badly for her.
This is what matters.
... is all that matters.
Casey?
Baby, I'm so sorry. I've been trying to call. I got a flat tire.
Can you wait?
He's beautiful.
He?
She? I...
I don't know.
Doesn't matter.
God, I wish I was there.
Me too.
I love you.
I love you too.
- I'll see you at home. - Okay.
Congratulations. Everything seems just fine.
- Thank you. - Well, I'm not sure I'm the one to thank.
How long you had this rash on your neck?
You allergic to anything?
Not that I know of.
I'd say it's your necklace then. Is it new?
Oh, no.
Strange.
Could be your body just adjusting to the hormone change.
Sometimes women develop allergies during pregnancy.
Is the chain silver?
Cheaper metals cause rashes sometimes.
Oh, don't worry. Nothing serious.
Hey. Ah, that was fun.
Remind me never to get a flat in the rain again.
Oh...
Now, this...
Doesn't even look real.
Hey, you okay?
I'm fine.
What's wrong?
Nothing.
It's nothing at all.
Alright.
I'm gonna go change.
Hey...
How are you doing?
That's my boy.
You get any fatter, we gonna put you on Weight Watchers.
When did you see her last?
Mrs. Bryson?
Not... Not for awhile.
Not for weeks.
I'm sorry.
So you and Ms. Riggs, you were seeing each other?
- They... were - Well...
But not for some time.
Not a very happy relationship, I understand.
She was a troubled girl.
If you hear anything...
I'm sure they'll find her.
Sometimes, I can feel him.
I have his hands.
His heart.
It's like he's...
... he's waiting.
He's wanting to come back.
When you look at me, do you think about him?
Sometimes.
Lucky coin.
Nothing's gone forever.
Jess?
Hi baby!
Hey, what do you think of Victor?
I think... less thinking, more unpacking.
I love it when you boss me around.
I'm gonna go take the stuff upstairs.
Remember the storm in Cancun?
It's your mother's old silver chain...
Sarah's in Kentucky...
- These are my memories... - He's lying to you...
Remember when we went to Pastis and
the waiter spilled a bottle of Barolo all over my white shirt...
Memories... memories...
There was an old couple at the park and...
... and when I looked at them, I could only think one thing...
OUR FUTURE... OUR FUTURE...
You're cute when you do stuff.
I'm sorry?
No... you... uh... You just scared me.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Hormones.
Okay.
If you're hungry, I'm gonna go fix dinner.
Okay.
I... I'm just gonna be a minute.
Jess, you need anything?
No, I'm fine.
It's a funny thing, isn't it?
Love.
It's stronger than any of us.
It finds a way somehow.
And once you get it,
you can never let it go.
That's probably why it was so hard for Roman.
'cause I think, he was in love with you.
And I think,
he felt like I stole you from him.
Just because he saw you first.
So you stuck it out.
Watching the two of us,
torturing themselves.
Can't say I blame him.
We are so lucky.
I want you to come with me.
I think you'll like this.
It's almost finished.
I like it.
What do you think?
I guess I'll keep working on it.
Do not run away from this.
Jess, look at me.
It's just been too hard to get here.
I understand that you were hurt and confused,
but the truth is, you're happier now than you've ever been.
No.
No, you lied to me.
How sick are you?
You took advantage of me while my husband was dying!
No.
The only way that I could even stand to be in the same room as you was
when you were someone else!
First, Casey... Now, you...
Why do you do this?
Why do you all do this?
Why do you turn on me like this?
What? What did you do?
I love you!
I did it all for you.
We're starting to build a family.
I came back for you! He didnt!
Back for me?
Just the thought... of you touching me, makes me sick.
Come on, Jess. Stand up.
Something's wrong.
No, I'm serious.
Something's wrong.
Let me see.
You're hurting me!
- What's the jump in his pressure? - We're down by 25 percent.
Okay, we're losing him.
You knew what you were doing with me! You always knew!
Stop this!
I remember the first time you looked at me.
I knew what you wanted.
You kept looking at me like that even when you were with him.
I will not... let you go.
Time and...
Mrs. Bryson?
I have good news.
The baby will be fine.
What about Ryan?
He had another seizure last night.
He fought it.
He fought hard.
For a moment, it seemed his body wasn't strong enough.
And then somehow,
he pulled though.
I think, we're gonna be okay.
We'll get through this.
and...
I've taken a new case.
I think it's something I should do.
But I want you to know...
I need you, to know...
That... when you find your way back,
I will be right here,
and things will be different.
I will be different.
I promise you, baby.
Let me help you...
