Father...
Hey, sorry about the delay ...
storm at LaGuardia really bad.
It was not a big deal.
I only waited about an hour.
This service looks bigger now.
When was the last time you were here?
Is not that like, Thanksgiving?
Yes ... in '82.
(Women) Are they here?
[barking dog]
Aw ... Landry!
Do not let him out!
Boys my best! I miss you so much.
-Do you understand? -Yes!
Oh, Adrian. -Hai mother.
Oh, my God, you become very thin!
Yes, he's upset stomach.
-Are you okay now? -Yes, I am doing okay.
I'll take this big bag of stone in your room.
Andrew? Andrew, your sister here.
Hey, Andrew.
Wow, man, you become very high.
Hey, can I get a hug?
Oh, Andrew ... He's just a little shy.
- It's okay, Mom. -He was very happy to see you.
-No anything ... -Andrew!
We thank you, Father, to bring Adrian
back home safe and sound celebrates
this blessed holiday with us.
We pray that You would supervise and guide him,
like you have to supervise and guide us all.
Amin.
(All) Amen.
I make all your favorites.
Wow, this looks really good, Mom.
Andrew still play football?
He quit a year ago.
I was sucking it.
No, that's not true now.
Coach Jennings said you have great potential.
Andrew is vice president of the drama club now.
Wow, really?
He is in Arsenic and Old Lace recently.
I was in charge.
You are so convincing an older man.
And he's got the biggest applause.
He needs to speak was what she needed to do.
He mumbled most of the line.
I could hardly understand him half the time.
Sorry I missed it, man.
I bet you are brilliant,
You will not be cast as the lead opposite.
Are you still at the same place, an advertising agency?
Ya.
You've been there a long time. Still love it?
Yes, it's been three years. I still really like it.
Have you seen
Chocolate Crispy Puff the commercial
it is playing right now?
Oh, yes.
You work on it?
I wrote parts of it, yes.
I see it..
That sucks.
Andrew, it was not good.
No, he's right, ma'am.
This is quite difficult.
How is your roommate?
They are great.
Um, do they go home for Christmas, too?
Mm-hmm.
Where did they come from?
Brandon came from New Jersey, and Leo's from Ohio.
I think I spoke with Leo on the phone once
when you're not there.
He sounded very nice.
I can not understand how three men
they can live together.
It's like you go back to college.
Dale, the rent is much more expensive there.
I realized it was just--
Grilled meat, ma'am, as good as I remember.
I actually dream about your cooking,
I miss him very much.
Thanks dear, it's very sweet.
Hey, can you smell Georgie?
Yes? I think you two would like each other.
Knock, knock!
Hey ... Mom, I'm so full I could not have another bite.
Come on, please eat this cake?
Your brother will go to eat it, if not,
and all the sugar is not good for the skin.
Oh, poor guy.
Well.
It was ... it was very nice. It's very nice, Mom.
You know, your father wants to transform this space into storage
but I did not have the heart to take all your things.
And also I like to sleep here sometimes.
You know how your father's snoring.
I do not miss it.
I hope you're not too bothered by Andrew.
No, not me.
I know she's still mad at me.
I met Carly yesterday at the store.
He does not know you're coming to town.
I thought you were talking with each other occasionally.
Uh, no. It's been a long time.
I just got busy.
Well, it turns out he moved to Dallas.
He got a job there.
Yes, I heard it.
His father had a heart attack recently,
did you know that?
I do not know it. Is he okay?
She has recovered, but Carly at home to help her mother.
He gave me his new phone number
if you want to call him.
WELL.
Christmas is not the same without you.
I'm so glad you made it back this year.
Yes, I too, Mom.
Well, you have to rest. You must be tired.
Ya.
And eat this cake!
WELL! Well.
-Good night dear. Good night mother.
Landry?
Landry ...
This is our little secret, my friend.
Oh, you're hungry!
Shhh ... Stop.
Landry, you're such a pig bed, down ...
(Radio) you are listening to the Word with Dave Hewitt.
Just before the break, I'm talking about Santa Claus
How many of us, including myself,
has accepted the dominance of Santa at Christmas.
-Good morning. -Mornin '.
Morning.
But Santa has to distract us ...
How do you sleep?
I slept soundly.
I hope you're hungry because breakfast will be ready soon.
Can I do anything?
No, just drinking coffee.
Lies about Santa Claus may not be a big problem.
I certainly do not think of it.
But there are many other lies, in our society,
which do more damage.
You want more coffee, Dad?
Hmm? There is not. I'm good.
(Radio continues) I'll get more into this in a minute,
because what I feel the intention is truth.
Churches, our places of worship,
is the foundation of truth.
When we were there for each other federal,
we hear the truth.
But, when not in church,
we are surrounded by so many lies that permeate.
Remember what Jesus said in John 8:32?
Then you will know the truth,
and the truth will set you free ...
Honey? Are you alright?
Yes. Yes, no, I'm fine. I just woke up.
[Knocking]
Andrew?
Andrew ...
What?
I want you to get up for breakfast.
Return it.
Sorry.
Hey um ...
I want to apologize to you for um,
You can not come to New York to visit me.
I know you're really upset about it.
I just ...
something happened and I could not get time off so ...
Hey, you know what? listening to at the moment?
Is that Madonna? Since when are you to Madonna?
Hey, um, I was in the final event,
at Radio City Music Hall.
Wait, you went to the Virgin Tour?
Yes! Leo caught us front row tickets.
Impossible.
It was great fun, man. We had a blast like that.
I've got another album as well, but ...
Dad found it in my backpack and throw it away.
Very?
He dumped a lot of tapes.
I have posters of Bryan Adams but he tore it off the wall.
There is a sermon in church about "secular music."
It's not a new thing, Andrew,
they will always find a way to make the stuff.
Yes, well, the people around here do not think it was made.
You know Mr. Thompson from the end of the road?
-Yes? -He has all the records.
Oh, yes. He has an incredible collection.
He has an incredible collection.
He had Pastor John and they burnt them in his backyard.
You could see the smoke from a block away.
Firefighters had to come and remove it.
Do you think I'm ugly?
I mean, like, if you're not my brother and all.
Andrew, why are you asking me that?
Well, I do not know. Children in school, they ...
They called pizza face.
Tommy Clements said that his brother told
there is no way we related
Because you are so much better than me.
You're not ugly, okay?
My skin is also very bad. It disappears after a few years.
Children can only be a bastard.
Also sister of Tommy, Susie, very annoying.
And there is nothing like it
because he was trying too hard to be cool,
so he's probably the same.
You just said the A and the B-word.
Yes, I'll do call word-A
if you do not wake up for breakfast!
It's pancake day! We eat pancakes!
We can eat pancake--
Drop it! Breakfast is ready!
It's your fault.
What?
Yes, all your fault!
Give all you got now! Come on!
I'm trying...
So, if you see someone?
Barely have time for myself, let alone anyone else, ma'am.
Because you know I'm talking to Carly
and I think he's still on the market.
-Mom. -What?
I'm very fond of her.
Yes, well, my father did not.
It was a different story, and you know why.
Can I borrow your car?
I had to get some things in stores.
Sure, um, can you drive me to church?
I volunteer for the evening services.
Yes, of course.
Are you going to pick up some stuff for me, too?
I will make a list for you
and you can get money out of my wallet.
No, no, do not just make a list, Mom, I understand.
It is very close!
It's not just about power; it's about influence, right?
So ... turn the wrist rotate it, move on.
There ya go. There ya go!
-Yes! -See?
-WELL! -It's a good job.
So, you should do it with the wrist?
-Yes, you feel it? -Yes.
With your size, you will need to influence, okay?
Just check Georgie. Is he okay?
Did he stop throwing up?
Well, good, okay, that's good.
How are you?
[Chuckles]
Oh man.
Uh, no, I have not.
I just got here, Brandon.
Ya.
Yes I know.
It is very rich coming from you.
What, you just--
You do not even talk to your own family again!
Not!
So stop telling me what I should do!
S fine. I'm sorry, Brandon.
I'm just not really want to talk about it.
A ...
OK, I'll call you back in a few days, okay?
Do not worry about me, okay?
And um ...
Georgie Give lots of kisses for me.
All right. Bye
It was rejected.
Uh, can you try again?
Yes, it still did not work.
Um, OK, if you take Diner's?
Not.
All right, I'll do pay cash then. It is okay.
Here you go.
Hey, Lester!
Adrian Lester! Ha! I thought it was you.
As ...
Oh, Marc, we went to Arlington Heights together.
Ya, ya, hei.
Have you moved back to Fort Worth?
No, sorry, I um, I just ... I'm home for the holidays.
Do you work here?
Yes, I am the Assistant Manager.
That is cool.
Hey, you want fresh pumpkin pie?
I can hook you up.
It is true--
No, you should try to ours, they are the best.
Wait here, huh? It took one second.
Well.
Hei!
To.
Sorry, I do not know--
I'm just going to put it here in your bag.
How much should I pay you for this?
Oh, no, it was at home, work facilities.
Uh, do you two years ahead of me in school?
Ya.
You're there for the football team, right?
Go Yellow Jackets!
I was much heftier later.
Marcus. Marcus Peterson. Right?
Yes, I went by Marc after I graduated.
Marcus just sounds so corny, you know?
It's funny what dropped two letters of your name
can do for your self-image.
Listen...
I do not want to pretend like nothing happened before.
I'm not too good to many people in the school.
And uh, I know I'm not very good for you.
I know it's not an excuse, but,
I was having a lot of stuff at home
and I take it from you.
You know it's really time immemorial. But...
Do not worry.
Well...
I think it was the will of God I meet with you today.
Yes, uh, it was very nice to see you, Marc.
Too.
-Merry Christmas, Adrian. Hey, Merry Christmas, Marc.
Say hello to your people for me.
[Murky]
Dale, rolled.
Hey, if you go before I ...
Will you wait for me?
Because I'll be waiting if I go first.
Merry Christmas, Landry.
[Hymns Christmas]
Come on now, go.
Pastor John advised them;
He says it sounds like the stuff you listen to.
But without all the dirty lyrics.
thanks.
Are equally.
All right, who's next?
What is that?
Oh!
Why, thank you!
You are welcome. You can do all kinds of stuff with him.
I know. I saw it on TV. Wow ...
And you get it sold!
Damn, I forgot to take it off.
Thank you, Andrew.
You know it as it was the third time you gave me a tie.
Yes, but not with the crate!
True, no one with the dam. Ah, cufflinks as well.
We thought that would be obsolete old now.
It's ... It's very beautiful, thank you.
The original gold leaf.
It is a mild skin very soft
so perfect for winter Texas.
Let's see what I have.
Well.
Oh this ...
This cashmere.
All right, Andrew.
Open it, pal.
So, who is actually recorded and it was a little smaller
so it should be easier to carry around.
And it has Dolby.
You are the best.
Yes, now you do not have to give him a new one,
His grandfather worked well.
Dale, come on, it's Christmas.
And um, this is for all of you.
Ooh ...
Well.
This ...
This is a round-trip ticket to Honolulu.
Let me see it.
Give here ...
3 days hotel?
You always want to go Mom.
And this is an open ticket
so you can use it anytime next year.
Hawaii?
So--
We're going to get room service?
Wait, you're not going to go with us?
Well...
Uh ...
I mean, of course, I really want to. I just--
I do not know if I could come home from work.
How do you pay for this?
It was a special deal.
Um, Brandon, roommate, she's a travel agent.
But all these gifts, it must spend a lot of money.
No, not nothing.
Uh, Bloomingdale's is one of our biggest clients
so I got a great discount there.
And um ...
I uh, I got some news--
... to share with you.
Um, I'm just trying to find the best time to do this.
I got a big promotion.
You do?
The ...
And I hope to soon get my own place.
Wow congratulations.
We always know that you have the talent.
So, now I can come visit you?
Ya.
[Knocking]
Listen.
Every one...
Praise!
Every one...
Praise!
Oh wow.
- It sucks, right? - It's happy.
Hey, um,
I buy something else but um,
I do not want Mom and Dad to panic.
Warehouse hundred dollars to Vote?
Ya.
Yes, so now you can get tapes whatever you want.
You just- you have to hide it well.
It was incredible.
thanks.
Yes, friends, Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas.
Praise!
Every one--
Praise!
You just harus--
Praise! Seduction!
I just wanted to see what you look like.
It's a little warm today, hun.
Stop whining and just made for one minute.
Come on.
Well...
Spinning.
Wow! Look how handsome!
Hey, I'll do it bring Landry streets.
WELL.
[Sobbing] I do not know what to do.
Oh, my God...
I miss you so much.
Halo?
Hey Carly, Adrian.
Well, all right.
Merry Christmas.
Right...
You know I do not count on hearing from you.
Hey, how's your father?
I'm really sorry to hear what happened to him.
Right, um. He's doing much better.
Thanks for asking.
Hoping to return to work after the holidays.
OK that's good.
Tell him I said hey when you get a chance.
Ya.
Hey, guess who I met yesterday?
Marcus fucking Peterson.
Carly ...
Carly, are you really this mad at me?
Did she give you dirt free?
Yes he gave me a pumpkin pie, actually.
Why? Did he give you anything?
Ya.
He gave me a damn rotisserie chicken
when I was there with my mother.
It was very strange.
I think he was fair to try to make amends.
You know, he's the man who changed, thank God.
The chicken was tasty.
Yes, as well as the cake.
Uh, are you busy?
Uh, it will happen very pleased to meet you.
You know I live in Dallas now, begitu--
OK, uh ...
I could borrow my mother car.
You're just like, 45 minutes.
Well, I have to get ready for tonight.
What are you ... What happened?
(Carly on stage) How is everyone tonight?
[applause]
Well.
My name is Carly.
But my Korean name Jeong Ki-Bum Choi Young-soon.
True enough, please call me Carly.
Uh ...
Growing up in school, I do not think so
different from what one of the other students,
until one day, in the 6th grade,
in class we learned about the history of World War II.
Madeline, the most popular girl in school,
stand for education, pointing at me,
and called "dirty Jap."
[Audience complain]
Yes, terrible, right?
That's racist! It's just, like,
assume that we are all equal.
You know I was American-Korean. I am very proud and I ...
thought it was important to explain it to her.
So the next day I went to school ...
wearing ...
Korean traditional clothes, which I ...
very well explain to him called Hanbok.
And then I kicked his ass.
Yes!
Yeah, kick him ...
Ass! Felt very good.
But you know what, I do not condone violence.
No, looking back I feel very bad about it.
But I think it is important to teach him a lesson,
that there is a difference between "dirty Jap" ...
dan motherfucking "gook!"
thanks. Yes.
thanks.
[Audience laughter, applause]
Hei!
To.
Aw, man, you're so cute!
thanks. Yes thanks, I'm still working on a joke.
It's very, very nice.
My cheeks are a little sore from smiling so much.
Um, do you want a drink? I will get the first round.
Please.
Hey, Gene, can I drink vodka soda?
And I'll have a gin and tonic.
I do not know I just,
started taking some classes improver for fun.
One of my colleagues have been doing it for a while
and he suggested that I try it.
And you know what, I just, um,
I felt it was really liberating.
You have to say all the crap that you would not say in real life.
That's cool.
I never ...
Would never imagine you do this.
It's amazing.
Yes, well, I'm still very amateurish.
No, Carly, you're actually very good at it.
thanks. My parents do not even know if I did.
I mean, if they knew I was doing stand-up in front
a bunch of drunks in this part of town,
Shit, my father would have a heart attack again.
And, you know that the whole reason why I moved to Dallas.
To get them off my back.
I wish I had the guts to do what you did.
You uh, you did. Damn you leave Texas. 558 00: 36: 23.381 -> 00: 36: 24.847 You do it.
Look at you now.
Making waves on Madison Avenue.
My God, what is it that my mother say?
Geez, uh ...
Yes its me ...
I still have not made money and uh
I stayed in the uh, the same homely environment.
I've been robbed three times.
Wow, it sounds like you are living the dream.
Yes, no, this year is actually really rude to me.
If nothing else,
a bad year is about to expire.
So this is 1986.
Hopefully this new year, give us a break.
Yes, a toast to that.
You do not have to go home soon, right?
- You can hang out? - Yes! What I am, 15 years?
I do not know, man, you always have a curfew.
What's in your mind?
I'll take this bitchin club.
[Music playing in the background]
-Hi. -Hi.
You want wine?
Uh, no, I'm fine.
We used to do this all the time.
Yes, Carly, I-
Me, I really just want to walk.
WELL?
[Turn off music]
Why did you stop calling me?
I left so many messages damn
and you just check me.
Yes I know.
To.
Adrian, please look at me.
Please.
What is going on? What is wrong?
There is no.
Can I really get the water?
Are you happy?
A ...
Yes, I am fine. How are you?
Well.
Do you see someone in New York?
Uh, no, I do not.
Are you seeing someone?
Adrian, I--
Carly, the reason I did not call you kembali--
I went there to start over.
I really need a new beginning.
I do not love my life here, and um ...
Like that
WELL.
So why is that do you call me today?
Why are we doing this?
Because, I really want to see.
It has been a long time and I want to ...
I'm in town ...
And, I can not go without seeing you.
I love you ... I really care about you!
You can not say that to me. You can not--
Damn you!
Damn you.
Adrian, we've known each other since we were ten years
and this is how you do it end this shit?
I...
I just wanted to see you one last time.
Well it looks like you get what you want.
You fucking coward.
You are a piece of shit.
I think you should go now.
I really am sorry, Carly.
Oh shit, Mom!
Language!
My God, what are you doing here?
Your father's snoring storm
and I came here to wait
and I think I just fell asleep.
Where have you been?
Um, I'm hanging out with Carly.
Oh, are you having fun?
Oh dear, you do not look very good.
Yes, no, I do not feel good.
Have you been drinking?
Mother ...
And you drive all the way from Dallas,
You could have killed someone!
I'm not drunk, Mom, Jesus.
Adrian!
Oh, my God...
[Wretched]
Hopefully not another stomach flu.
Maybe I should take you to the doctor tomorrow.
No, it's not the stomach flu.
And, I actually started to feel a little better.
Are you able to undress himself and got into the tub?
Ya, Bu.
It smells like chewing gum.
Just as childhood.
You know, right? shower me
every time I was sick.
And I still do.
I'm sorry, ma'am, I did not mean to make you angry.
I swear I'm not drunk.
Is this about Carly?
We have a very big fight tonight.
Pretty sure that friendship ended.
Nonsense.
You guys have known each other forever,
such was not the first time you fight.
I'm sure you both work through this.
Mom, I'm never going to be with Carly.
I want you to understand it.
You should drink your tea, before becoming cold.
I do not want you to think we do not like the present
You got to us.
We're just not used to having nice things like that.
And you know, your father is a kind of stingy.
Oh, Mom.
Well, he is.
You'll never believe me when I tell you this.
What?
I did not choose to Reagan last year.
Mom!
Your father does not know.
You chose Mondale?
You actually choose a Democrat?
I change my mind at the last minute.
I really like the policy of nuclear freezing and--
I do not believe in war.
I saw what happened to your father, and to his friends.
And then there is the Equal Rights Amendment.
I just had a good feeling about him.
I do not even know you were into politics.
Unfortunately, I did not fair a mound country.
I like to consider myself as
citizens are better informed today.
You think you're ready for bed?
Um, I'll stay here a minute longer.
WELL.
Thank you mom.
Adrian?
Adrian.
Uh, ya?
Wake up, we'll be late.
It's okay, let him rest he was unwell.
But Mom, he's already told me he would take me.
Adrian? Can we go now?
Yeah, hey can you give me the padaku--
Give me two minutes?
Hey, can we ...
one adult, one child for A Chorus Line, please?
Sorry, this one is sold out.
I'm sorry, my friend, it's my fault we're late.
Nothing. I would not mind seeing Back to the Future.
How many times have you seen it?
I do not know, like, four?
OK, let's see something you have not seen.
WELL...
Oh Nightmare 2.
It's rated R. I can not take notice of it.
Mom and Dad will kill me.
Mom and Dad do not need to know.
Please?
[Movie is playing]
So, I thought I would get this.
You do not have to spend all your
gift certificates today, man.
Yes, but they had everything I wanted.
Bud, you ...
Wow, you listen to too many Top 40.
Well, we have to catch several different tapes ...
Did you know The Cure?
Or REM?
- Who? - OK let's go.
To.
You want a drink?
No, I'm good, thanks.
Can not sleep, huh?
Not.
Come on, lower the water.
Drinking beer with your old man, come on.
Take a seat.
There ya go.
Sit.
If I had a drink with you before?
No, I do not think so.
Hell, I was 15 years old when I first drank beer with my dad.
Oh, well, toast.
Cheers, Dad.
You...
take off as soon as you can.
You can not ...
be taken more quickly.
Are you running away from something?
I do not run away, Father.
I could feel Andrew away from me.
I do not even know what to do about it.
Everything was fine when he was playing football.
I was at every game.
Once he started to get into the theater,
I just do not know how to talk to him again.
Well, you can ...
ask him questions about it, it's a good place to start.
She does not think I know anything about it,
think I do not understand.
Perhaps he was right, I sudah--
I've never been the kind of guy too artsy-fartsy.
But I began to worry.
Is she...
Does he look soft to you?
He was a kid, Dad.
But you do not like it when you're his age.
You played sports all through high school.
You helped me in the store.
I mean, from Andrew would have been much more difficult
or she would have a difficult time in the world.
Your grandfather ...
Now he rigidly to me.
He did not embrace one of his sons, or ask us questions.
But he knew how
align us with discipline.
Or singing nice if it was needed.
I am who I am today because of him,
and i be okay, right?
Ya.
You know you can always count on me, right?
If something goes wrong, you need money, anything.
We may not have much but we always managed.
Hell ...
You would not believe some of the things I do
for my friend in 'Nam, against them.
Dad, you can not say "gooks."
I can call them whatever I want!
You were not there.
There lives of people depend on me.
I have helped many people. I am still known to it,
You ask anybody in town.
I'm the most dependable in the city. Tanya anyone.
So?
Is everything okay with you?
Come on now, I do not have all goddamn night.
Yes, everything is fine.
How do you pay the reward?
I already told you. 806 00: 56: 23.780 -> 00: 56: 25.013 That's a lot of money, Adrian.
I tried to call your office a few months ago.
Dad, you do not bisa--
You just ... If you need to talk to me you have to call my home.
They do not like a personal call.
I wonder why you do not want to give us your work number.
But it did not take long to find out.
They say it does not work there no more.
Well, I'm not sure with whom you speak,
The agency is very large, they may bingung--
Do not lie to me.
What happened?
I mean, did you get fired? Did you steal something?
Father!
Well, the answer ... Answer my question!
You may be a man but I'm still your father.
Okay, I did not steal anything!
I can not--
Honestly - Oh, my God, I have to go to bed.
You remember when I sign in Connecticut for the funeral of Frank?
He was my platoon commander.
- You remember? - Yes
Well...
They thought he was suicidal.
Knowing he might be just too wasted.
Playfully at some distance shooting
that he should not be there.
Kids are stupid.
So I was in Connecticut for Frank, and then I took ...
train into town to have lunch with you.
Ya.
I asked if I could see where you are
but you had reason to why it's not a good idea.
Dad, I just, do not want you to see what it's chaos.
If I had time to membersihkannya--
Why are you still crap I?
I took a cab to the neighborhood.
I want to see where you live.
As we drive past your building ...
I think I saw you with some guy on the stairs
but I am not sure at first if it's you
so I got a taxi driver around the block again.
This time I ...
I'm sure it was you.
You hug him.
I did not even recognize you.
It's like you're a different person.
T you even think about telling your mother.
You'll break his heart.
You hear me? Not a single word.
Ya pak.
Ow!
Did you cut yourself? Let me see ...
Yes ... Where's the Band-Aids?
I'll get it.
- Right there. - I got it.
Why do not you let me help?
I'm fine, Mom! I'm not a kid!
Adrian! Someone here to see you.
Are you sure there is not anything I can get for you, hun?
Make tea or something?
Oh no, I'm fine, Mrs. Lester.
Please, call me Eileen.
Where Mr. Lester?
He was in the shop with Andrew.
Oh, okay.
Ah, our man at the moment.
To.
Is.
I had a chicken to put in the oven so I'll leave you to it.
Say hi to your parents for me
and tell me if there is anything I can do.
I will, thank you very much.
Well.
Do not be a stranger.
I am not going to
I was starving, if you want a bite?
Wow, this place has not changed a bit.
Remember we used to come here every time we go bankrupt
and we will order an extra large fries
refills and get a Coke?
And do not leave a tip! We are very terrible.
Hi, what can I get for you?
Um, I'll have a Caesar salad and Diet Coke.
And I'll have a cup of coffee,
cream and sugar.
And we will get an extra large order of fries to share.
Okay perfect. I'll be right back with it.
I am so sorry...
about that night.
I just do not ...
I do not want to lose you as a friend again.
Yes, me too, Carly, I ...
I miss you so much. I just, um ...
I do not know if I would be here this time next year.
What do you mean?
Leo died two months ago.
In the month of October.
Nine months after she was diagnosed.
We spent all New Year's Eve together
since we met.
I really hope he will make it into this one.
I called her parents after she died.
They do not want anything to do with him.
He really wanted to be buried in Ohio,
where he was born.
I was not even able to do it for her.
I have lost many friends.
I've been to six funerals this year.
I feel like I lost my fucking mind.
Leo left me his Chihuahua.
It broke my heart a little when he saw me funny.
He was still wondering where Leo is.
And uh ...
My job at the agency, I lost it.
Someone may already know, I do not know.
And uh, I work in a restaurant.
Almost nothing, I spent all my money for Christmas gifts.
I can not believe it take you this long to tell me.
Do you really think so
I'm not going to be cool with it?
Ya.
I guess we're even. You also do not really know me.
Promise me something.
When you are sick, you should call me. WELL?
You do not want to be approaching this.
Believe me ...
Everything will be very ugly.
I should not have kissed you. If something happens padamu--
Stop it, okay, stop. You're paranoid.
WELL?
I'll see you next Christmas.
We're going to come out and we'll have fun.
And who knows, maybe there is no cure at that time.
Maybe there are new drugs, treatments baru--
I'm not going to work for it.
You're still healthy. You do not even look sick to me.
Sorry.
You do not have to say yes to this.
But in the future ...
Will you tell Andrew what really happened to me?
Please?
Honey, will you honor us?
Uh, yes of course.
Beloved father ...
A ...
Thanks for another outstanding meal.
And we want to thank you
to allow us to spend this Christmas together.
We pray that there are many more days like this come up,
and more memories that we look forward to it.
And we pray ...
You will continue to teach us how
love each other unconditionally,
just the way you love us.
We pray that your immortal Awards
continues to lead and inspire us. Amen.
(All) Amen.
It's beautiful.
Thank you mom.
Can not you just stay a few more days?
I really hope that, Andrew, but I have to go back to work.
So, when are you going home next?
I, or ...
The next chance I get.
Better not three years.
I mean, you have a promotion now, you make money,
Can not you fly back home whenever you want?
Let it go, Andrew.
To.
What is going on?
I'll tell you.
I'll tell Andrew.
Thank you, Carly.
thanks.
I already told you I do not need a new coat.
Unfortunately, he will soon be gone. Do you only wear it?
At least that's what you can do.
Do you stop bothering me?
If you would not wear it then put it to me.
Eileen!
God, you're stubborn.
Why do not you just take it to work with you?
It should be cold later
I'm sorry I have to go again, man.
Are you going to miss?
Well.
I wish I could take you with me, but you're too big.
I had to leave work early so your mother will
take you to the airport.
Well.
So, I'll say goodbye now.
- Take care of yourself. - You too, Dad.
I mean what I say.
You can always count on me.
WELL...
Hi dad.
Ya?
I was reading some passages in the Bible
that you and Mom made me and--
I know I need to make some changes.
I'm a little lost right now, but ...
With his light, I know I can find my way back.
I have to go.
Well.
Goodbye, Dad.
Andrew ...
Andrew?
mother
It is time?
Yes, we must go.
OK, I'll just drop you here.
And I ...
I will not drive you get in, okay?
WELL.
I do not want to miss your plane.
You know...
You do not need to tell me, until you are ready.
And I'll try to be ready when you are.
[Sobbing] Mother ...
Well...
I might have to go.
WELL.
I love you, mom.
I love you too.
(Adrian on tape) Hey, Andrew ...
Now I want you to keep this band as long as possible.
I think you may need to register for it again in the future.
May make more sense to you when you're older.
You will have some tough days.
The day when ...
You will feel like it's everything sucks.
And you do not want to get up from the bed.
The days where you feel like you do not deserve.
I have a lot of those days.
And I want you to know ...
You are not the only one who feels as you do.
There's a whole world out there for people like you.
I promise you, you are not so different as you think.
And Mom and Dad, they may not get it.
Many of your friends may not get it too.
And some of them may say some nasty things and terrible.
Because they do not understand.
But I understand.
And I know that you will learn to be happy ...
who are you with.
And you may have anywhere else to be happy.
And you know what? It is okay.
That's why I left home.
It may seem like the hardest thing to do at first.
But it's probably the right thing for you as well.
And at other times ...
At another place...
You'll meet the right person.
People who are just like you.
People who are just like me.
So hang on, Andrew.
Everything tends to be slightly darker
before they become brighter.
I will always regret that I did not quite at home
the last few years.
I feel like I just really get to know you
this time.
And I'm proud that you're my brother.
I will always be with you.
(Radio) We know that there is no forgiveness in hell.
Whatever is going to hell, will remain in neraka--
