Why? Because I care about what happens on the farm, and she doesn't.
Because I'm sick of seeing people die so the the farm can make money.
And And she's scared as hell I'm gonna say something to Dad.
Will you talk to them? When you wanted to go to that that That workers' rally, I stood with you, Jeanette.
Nobody else in the family would.
I did.
And now I'm paying for it.
I'm asking, please talk to them for me.
[Birds chirping.]
[Beeping.]
- [Scoffs.]
- You're shady.
I saw you snatch that phone.
I already got busted, so it don't matter.
You need a phone? Don't worry about it.

How come you never say anything during group? Whole time I've been coming, you never once said anything.
It's stupid, huh? It's not stupid.
Just don't have nothing to say.
Nothing? Why are you in here? Used to be messed up.

JD came to Jeanette.
Uh, he He was upset because Because we all we all need to be mindful about what's happening, how how it's happening, and JD said that he was turned away from seeing your father.
There had been a misunderstanding at the hospital.
He said you turned him away.
Well, like Carson says, there was a There was a misunderstanding.
Oh.
I'm sure it was a misunderstanding.
But JD was upset.
And you you feel like you know this because Well, I sat with JD, and I talked to I listened to him, and the the hurt was there.
It wasn't something anybody needs to guess at.
He came to me, he broke down, and it was very clear why.
Maybe maybe You don't want any hurt, but that doesn't mean - you didn't hurt somebody.
- Did Did he Did Did he tell you Did JD tell you that he showed up at the the hospital with liquor on his breath? I know he has problems.
Laurie Ann: He's a drunk.
And that's just a plain fact.
Do you think that we want that around our father in his last days? Well, he just wants to see your dad.
Well, then JD can clean himself up.
And I-I don't understand why you feel that you have the right to tell us about our family.
This is my family, too.
Well, you have a family, and your family needs help.
And we didn't tell you what to do when your sister was addicted, except to get her away from our business, which she was stealing from.
The same way you took from this family.
What does that mean? What are you talking about? What is she talking about? The check that you wrote to the workers' group.
They're attacking us, and you used the family's money That was my money.
the family's money to pay them off.
Can you imagine how that makes us look? And what kind of Of frivolous litigation it could have opened us to if If Carson hadn't put a stop on the check? [Sighs.]
Now, I understand with your situation if you're more sympathetic to an alcoholic than to an old man on his deathbed.
I really I do I get that.
But why don't you try to understand what this family's going through? [Clears throat.]
Thank you.
Thank you for, um, you know For hearing us out.
Of course.
You know, I, um While I'm thinking about it, I, uh I saw Wick Sommers the other day.
You remember Wick? Why didn't you tell me you put a stop on that check? Giving money to those people was not the right thing to do.
Well, why didn't you tell me? Because you did something that made you feel good, - and I thought that - "Feel good"? i-if I just didn't tell you, maybe you'd get out of whatever mood you're in.
You think I'm just trying to make myself feel good? You know, I don't know.
I-I don't I don't How do you think I feel right now? How do you think you're making me feel? [Car door closes.]

Do you have any contact with a parent or a legal guardian? No.
Do you know the whereabouts of your parents or a guardian? I don't know where my dad is.
I know where my mom is.
Do you have the means to contact her? Do Do I Either in person or by post or electronic communication? I-I know where she is, but Prior to requesting this waiver to have an abortion, have you made an attempt to contact her? No.
Are you aware of any medical reason that you would require a termination of your pregnancy within the next 24 hours? No.
Then it is my directive that you first attempt to secure permission from your parent.
If after no response is received, the court can again take up your request.
I want an abortion.
I understand, and I'm leaving open the possibility - You're telling me to go away.
- to take the necessary steps.
Why am I here? The law requires that un-emancipated minors receive a legal waiver.
I'm supposed to be testifying against my pimp.
You all want me to do something to stop people like him.
So how come when I decide how to take care of myself I'm the one in court? Not wanting a child isn't sufficient reason for a waiver.
- What's a good reason? - Shae What's a good reason? Inability to contact a parent, if contacting that parent could potentially put you in jeopardy.
I screwed guys in alleys.
I screwed guys in alleys 'cause that was better than what I came from.
I don't know if I'd be in danger.
But I shouldn't have to ask the person who made me want to screw guys in alleys if I can have an abortion.
[Door opens, closes.]
The judge will grant the abortion if you're under 20 weeks.
You're required to get an ultrasound first.
Why? Because you're required to.

Do you have any contact with a parent or a legal guardian? No.
Do you know the whereabouts of your parents or a guardian? I don't know where my dad is.
I know where my mom is.
Do you have the means to contact her? Do Do I Either in person or by post or electronic communication? I-I know where she is, but Prior to requesting this waiver to have an abortion, have you made an attempt to contact her? No.
Are you aware of any medical reason that you would require a termination of your pregnancy within the next 24 hours? No.
Then it is my directive that you first attempt to secure permission from your parent.
If after no response is received, the court can again take up your request.
I want an abortion.
I understand, and I'm leaving open the possibility - You're telling me to go away.
- to take the necessary steps.
Why am I here? The law requires that un-emancipated minors receive a legal waiver.
I'm supposed to be testifying against my pimp.
You all want me to do something to stop people like him.
So how come when I decide how to take care of myself I'm the one in court? Not wanting a child isn't sufficient reason for a waiver.
- What's a good reason? - Shae What's a good reason? Inability to contact a parent, if contacting that parent could potentially put you in jeopardy.
I screwed guys in alleys.
I screwed guys in alleys 'cause that was better than what I came from.
I don't know if I'd be in danger.
But I shouldn't have to ask the person who made me want to screw guys in alleys if I can have an abortion.
[Door opens, closes.]
The judge will grant the abortion if you're under 20 weeks.
You're required to get an ultrasound first.
Why? Because you're required to.
