LILY: "Dear diary. I finally got the courage
to write a good-bye letter to my father.
'Dad, I am thankful for all you've done for me.
But I can't be afraid for my physical health anymore.
You don't listen. You're lost!
I hope you find peace and forgive yourself.
I'm sorry, I can't stay here. Not like this. It's time.
Goodbye. I love you. I'm fucking out of here.'"
[♪♪♪]
I'm just starting to realize how much I'm gonna miss my mom.
NEIL: Do you think it's a good idea to turn our phones on?
I just wanted to tell her I'm okay,
and that I'm sorry... Lily!
Okay, you're right.
Is it off?
Neil, I'm not stupid.
Are you serious right now?
You'll get it back once you start thinking clearly.
[SIGHS]
[♪♪♪]
[FLY BUZZING]
Don't.
You told me he didn't hit you.
It's nothing.
Get your lazy ass outside now!
LILY: Leave me alone.
Look at your daddy when he's talking to you.
You're not my dad and you smell like a cheap beer.
We said we'd be honest with each other.
[FLY BUZZING]
[♪♪♪]
Do we still have water?
No.
[SIGHS]
How much longer?
Just a little.
This looks like a good place.
For bears, maybe.
You know, I never realized how much anxiety you have.
You would if you really knew me.
Stay here.
Let me see if I can find that river.
You can pitch the tent while I'm gone.
I won't be long.
[♪♪♪]
Oh, no.
Neil!
[♪♪♪]
[FOOTSTEPS STOMPING]
I asked you to clean up the kitchen and what did you do?
Run off to your room to write in your fucking diary.

Now maybe we'll get some actual work done around here.

Hello? Is anyone here?
[SIGHS]
Oh, God.
Hi. Um....
Hello, sir, I-I need help.
I'm so sorry for banging on the door like that.
I was with my boyfriend-- It's all right. It's all right.
I'm just happy you're safe.
Thanks. Do you have a phone--
Don't just stand there. Come inside. Come on.
I'll get you some water.
Thanks. You're very kind.
Can I use your phone?
My boyfriend probably needs help.
[♪♪♪]
Here.
I really need to use the phone. Here you go.
Oh-- I'm so sorry.
I'm not mad.
You stink. You go take a shower, we'll talk later.
Excuse me?
Um, thank you for the glass of water,
but I think it's better if I go now.
Where you're going? Hey! No, no, wait, wait, wait.
Hey, Come back here.
What is the matter with you?
What do you want from me?
I want you to come inside
so we can have a normal conversation.
What? I am not gonna say it again!
[PHONE RINGING]
Get inside now. Okay.
What do you-- Wait-- Come on. You come.
Oh, God. Stay.
[PHONE STOPS RINGING] Oh. Goddamn it.
Give me your bag.
Come on.
Sit.
Please.
More water?
You don't understand how serious my situation is.
Well, you can tell me.
I'm here for you.
There's nothing to tell you. I don't get it!
I came here for help and-- Hey, shh, shh.
You hear me yelling? You were a minute ago.
[SOFTLY] I'm sorry.
This is ridiculous. No, sit down!
You can't tell me what to do-- You-- Sit!
[♪♪♪]
I just wanna go. You wanna go.
Well, you can come with me then. Come on.
What are you doing? Shut up. I don't wanna hear it.
You are coming with me now. You are hurting me.
And you are going in here.
Get in there. Get in and think about it.

I've got to get the hell out of here.
What are you doing?
What were you gonna do with that?
Get away from me.
Well, I was gonna come down and let you out.
I was gonna say sorry, but now
I find you've been messing around with all my stuff.
Congratulations. You're grounded.

Come upstairs, we'll get you a shower.
Don't touch me.
I'm not gonna hurt you.
I wanna go find my boyfriend.
Enough with this shit. You just do as I say.
I'm sorry.
[SOBBING] I'm sorry, I-- Look--
I'll get you a new sandwich. We'll sort everything out.
How does that sound?
I can't have you leaving again.
Again?
I can't even talk to you, for God's sake!
It's okay, honey. Come here. Give me a hug.
Leave me alone! What is the matter with you?
What's the matter with me? Does any of this make sense to you?
All right, that is it.
I'm not playing games. What are you doing? Stop!
Get off me. Come with me.
You get in here, now! In you go.
Hop on!
You're crazy!
It's time for you to train. Train for what?
Can we just try to make this work?
You promise not to grab me like that again?
I'm really sorry.
What can I do to make it right?
Just leave me alone.
[♪♪♪]
I'll give you the weekend.
Goodnight.

Just let me out, please.
[DOOR OPENS]
It's Sunday.
Sunday is a day of rest.
So how about you save your strength, stop all the yelling
and accept this is the way things have to be
I'm not gonna let it happen again. You're going to win.
I have no idea what you're talking about.
Stay focused. What am I supposed to win?
I told you many times. Win what? Win what?
We both need a clear mind. Argh!
Enough.
One more day.
Wait. Please. I'm hungry.

Fuck you!
Shit!
Okay.
I'm hoping you've calmed down a bit.
Are you ready to give it another try?
[♪♪♪]
What's going on?
What?
Why did you do that? I didn't do anything.
You're allowed to touch the box with your name,
you're not allowed to touch anything else.
This is all organized.
What were you trying to do? Nothing.
Do you think I'm happy leaving you down here?
If you'd just behave, I wouldn't have to.
Look, it's fine, fine.
Let's just do five, huh?
Then we can go upstairs, we can have a nice dinner.
Really? Yes.
But you have to do what I want first.
Okay. Okay. Come on.
You just needed motivation. Hmm?
I'll keep that in mind.
And one.
And two.
And three. Come on.
And four.
Oh, never mind.
Wait. I'm trying.
Come upstairs. I made you something special.
[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]

I take it by your reaction that it's satisfactory?
Have a seat. Hmm?
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. No.
Grace.
We always say grace. Go on, Katherine.
[♪♪♪]
I thought you were hungry.
Our father who art in heaven.
Thank you for the meal.
Please bless the food that we are going to...
Going to... To...
I will take that. Thank you very much.
I don't understand why you are disrespecting this food.
What, you can't even say grace properly now?
What are you? A baby?
I try to do something nice, you go ahead
and destroy everything. If you're gonna act like a baby,
you can eat with that.
Don't understand why we can't have a nice dinner together.
Well, go ahead and eat.
Eat your salad.
What are you doing?
Katherine, do not throw food on the floor.
What--
Don't you dare. Fuck you!
Hey! You can get back to the basement.
You gonna disrespect the food? Get back to the basement.

Evan, listen. We're gonna go for gold.
Evan, listen, okay? If we can reach our goal
within two months. Evan stop. We all love you!
Okay? You know this.
Why did you come out here, Jeff?
Hey.
And once you come all this way, for God knows--
It's been ages since you've come out here. Why? To piss me off?
No, listen-- Yeah, to bring me down.
I came all the way to see you. Just like Dad's memorial.
You hugged a teenage girl out of nowhere. What'd you expect?
I expect my brother to give me a bit of support.
I do support you, Evan. Oh.
Will you do me a favor? Let's just--
I'll take you to the doctor. I don't--
I don't need that stuff anymore. I can take you there now.
No, I don't have time for that.
I got Katherine, we gonna work. Evan.
I can't do this anymore.
What do you mean? I'm leaving, Evan.
This time for good. [TREADMILL BEEPING]
I'm gonna call that doctor. Oh.
And he better tell me that he's seen you recently.
I'll go, I promise. I-I will.
Take care, okay?
Yeah, yeah, sure.
Hey, Jeff.
Wanna say hello to Katherine?
I'm tired, Evan. Get some help.

Sorry I took so long. Your uncle stopped by.
Hey, I'm down here, hey.
What are you doing? He's gone.
Call him and tell him to come back, please.
I wanna see my uncle. I know, honey.
I told him you wanted to see him but he had to go.
Oh, look at you. You're all sweaty.
You were running for a long time. I'm very proud of you.

Oh, I forgot. We can't waste water.

I thought I'd surprise you and make your favorite.
What do you think about that?
Risotto. I love it.
Risotto. Since when do we have risotto?
Is that what you like now? No.
Well, yeah. But whatever you wanna make.
[CHUCKLES] I'm making spaghetti.
Oh, I love spaghetti. It's my favorite.
Go ahead and chop that tomato.
We're gonna need that. Okay.
When did you learn to do that?
My mom taught-- Your mom?
She was terrible at chopping tomatoes.
I didn't finish. She taught me how not cut them.
She was so bad at it. [CHUCKLES]
Oh, that.
That's the Katherine that I know and love.
I'm done with cooking now. Okay.
You go off and have a rest.
We're gonna have to work out later.

So where are you off to now?
I was just gonna get some fresh air.

"Dear diary, my dad took away my friend, Mr. Mo today.
I miss him but dad says I need to be a grown-up girl now."
"All my family was here for my birthday.
After everyone left, my mom started cleaning as usual.
Dad and I played our game in total darkness.
He tried to chase me around the house,
but he caught me right away.
He was mad at me for being too slow and now I'm grounded."
What was all that about? You can do better than that.
I mean, that was not fast. If I can catch you,
the guy in the back can definitely catch you. Okay?
I told you time and time again, you got to stay focused.
You can't get distracted.
"We played hide and seek again.
I love this game, but my parents always fight afterwards.
He's so bossy and always makes me cry."
I want all lights on from now on.
That's the second of my vases you've broken in two months.
Ivy, is just a vase.
Don't you dare raise your voice at me.
Sorry.
Here.
What you're doing is wrong. What is wrong?
What's happened to you, Evan?
I don't know what to do anymore.
I want our daughter to succeed. Is that a crime?
She's 12 years old. It's sick. Let her enjoy her childhood.
She's not just a child anymore.
It is not normal at her age to get that much exercise.
Don't you get it? We were just playing.
It's good for her. She loves it.
Let her choose her own dreams.
Not yours.
You've become like your father.
Oh, don't.
It's the truth.
[DOOR CREAKING]
She doesn't want this.
Look, am I really like my father?
You can't just throw that in my face and walk away.
She's gonna thank me one day. You're gonna see that.
She's gonna thank me. You need to stop this madness.

Oh, you're taking me way back now.
I thought your dad already told you.
Yeah, but I want to hear your version.
Well, we were working at the same school together,

It took your dad two semesters to ask me out.

You can't tell by looking at him now, but he used to be shy.

No, wait, wait, Katherine.
[YELLS] No, Katherine.
Katherine. Katherine.
Please, no, don't leave.
Don't leave. [SCREAMS]
My ankle. My ankle.
What? What? Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no.
Careful. Okay.
Can we eat it?
Yep. Great.
[LAUGHS]
Okay.
Seventy-one, 72, 73...
[PLAYING PIANO]
Whoa, whoa, no, whoa, whoa. Oh.
You're not ready.
Am I not ready or is it you?
Switch around. Come on.
[EVAN CHOPPING]
[CROW CAWING]
Come on, you must've finished your homework by now.
Your dinner's getting cold. I did. Okay.
Come on, grab the plates.
I know somebody who's gonna have a birthday soon.
Oh, right. What?
Oh, you did not forget your birthday, did you?
Just for a second, I remember now.
[TUTTING]
Better start thinking about what you want.
Anything you like. Name it.
You know exactly what I want, Dad.
I just wanted to say how very, very proud I am of you.
It's true. I, uh--
you worked towards your goals with determination, commitment,
and you've got out of your comfort zone every single day--
Would you stop it already? Why?
I just want to say what I really feel.
We did it together, Dad.
If it weren't for you, I wouldn't come this far.
So you're feeling ready? Yeah.
Hey, that's good, 'cause I've entered you in a race.
What? Oh, yeah.
You're gonna be running in seven weeks.
I'm running in seven weeks? You sure are.
Thanks, Dad. [CHUCKLES]
I waited for such a long time. That's it!
What's it? The best present.
Oh. You forgot the tomatoes.

[DOOR CLOSES]
[CHUCKLES]
That, uh, bird was driving me nuts.
Here, get in. What?
Oh, no. Don't. You don't want that.
I wanna remember the moment. I'm terrible at selfies.
[WHIRRING]
I love you, Dad.
I love you more.
Hey, come on. Let's eat.
We have to pray first.
Bless us, oh lord, for these, thy gifts,
which we're about to receive from thy bounty
through Christ, our Lord. Amen.
And 98, come on.
Here she comes, 99.
Here we go, ladies and gentlemen and it's a hundred.
Ladies and gentlemen, she did a hundred.
Whoo-hoo! Yeah!
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
You. I am so proud of you, you're amazing.
Come on. Up here. Let's go.
Stand up straight, stand up straight. Here we go.
And--
She's getting bigger. Come on, moment of truth.
Here we go. Up you get. Come on.
You get.
Don't look. Don't look!
Oh, no. What?
It's freaking perfect.
It is freaking perfect! Whoo!

What are you doing out here?
Hi, dad.
Well, don't just stand there.
Get over here. Give your old man a hand, huh? Come on.
Here. You take that one. And you take that one.
I'll take this one.
Oh!
Come on. Come inside.
Come on.
Dad? Are you okay?
Better get that ice cream in the freezer before it melts.
I got your favorite. Chocolate fudge sundae.
Oh, yeah, I know. There goes the diet.
But hey, it's only once a year.
What are you doing?
No, I don't want you in here while I'm setting up.
You go to your room. This could take a while.
How'd you know I'd be here?
You are going to spoil the surprise.
Go to your room. Go on, quick, quick, go, go!
That's it? Go to your room?
How about I miss you, I love you, I hate you,
where the hell have you been?
Of course I love you. What the hell kind of question is that?
Are you on your period?
I don't understand.
Just go to your room, please? Go on. Do some homework.
Homework? I don't have homework. Just go.
Okay, I'm going.
[EVAN HUMMING]
Hey. Heh-heh.
[♪♪♪]
LILY: I love your handwriting.
Who are you?
Did you read my diary?
Yes. To study you.
I've admired you for a long time.
What?
I never thought I'd meet you in person.
All right, enough. [SCOFFS]
It's funny. Your voice is just like I imagined it.
Happy birthday, by the way. Thanks.
How does it feel to finally be an adult?
Free? Independent?
Must not have liked it much, or you wouldn't be back.
Enough about me. I want to know who you are.
I'm you, a year younger.
Excuse me?
I live here now.
I sleep in your bed, eat your food, wear your clothes.
I chose this dress for tonight.
What do you think?
Dad likes it on me.
He says green is my color.
[♪♪♪]
I broke your record for the mile, by the way.
I finally made Dad proud.
Dad? Why do you keep calling my dad that? What's going on?
You see, I'm not afraid of anything anymore.
It's because I'm finally happy now.
You're starting to freak me out. I know. You're scared.
I was scared too. Please stay there.
You don't get it, do you?
[GASPS]
I don't know what you want. I just came here to see my dad.
I'm not looking for any trouble.
He needed help after the accident.
Even if he was speeding that night,
you could have supported him.
He didn't do it on purpose.
Oh, look at her.
She's crying. [SNIFFLING]
What a poor little bitch!
He loves you.
You have no idea how it really feels
to have a monster type of a father.
A beast!
I can't go back.
I'm sorry.

EVAN: Everything okay in there, sweetheart?
