For When You Get Lost (2023) Movie Script

1
["I'm Going to Get You Back" playing]
I don't always get it right
I'm never right on time
But one thing
That's crossed my mind
I will put up a fight
You, you, you
I'm gonna get you back
Because we're meant to last
Yeah, you
Yeah, you, you, you
I'm gonna get you back--
[music stops]
[engine idling]
Hello, Jack.
Almost here. Damn it.
[engine stops]
[car starts]
[engine stops]
[groaning] Fucking hybrid gas saver.
[car beeps, then starts]
[cell phone ringing]
[sighs]
Oh, Dad, I didn't mean to answer. Sorry.
Don't answer the phone
when you're driving.
I'm not driving. I'm parked.
When was the last time
you changed your oil?
Uh, listen, Dad,
I can't really talk right now.
-I'm kind of in the middle of something.
-When?
Um...
-Four thousand miles ago?
-[Michael groans]
You're supposed to change it
every 3,000 miles.
[sighs]
Listen, Dad, I gotta go.
Hey, why do you have an eye patch?
Oh, uh, the tumor's
pushing against my eye.
-Oh...
-Listen, Joann wants to throw me
a birthday thing this weekend.
Book a flight and get up here.
Uh, yeah. No, Dad,
that sounds pretty last minute.
-I don't think I can do it.
-Well, Mikey's flying in from school.
Well, okay, maybe. I'll try.
Have you, uh...?
Have you talked to Cami?
Not in seven years. Have you?
Well, when you get up here...
we need to have a talk.
I, uh...
Dad?
There's just some things
I need to say to you.
-[Michael coughing]
-Dad?
-Dad, is that a cigarette?
-Call Joann...
[coughing]
when you book your flight.
-Dad!
-[call drops]
[exhales sharply]
[suspenseful music playing]
-Fuck!
-[Jack] Someone here?
[door rattles]
What? June?
-June, is that you?
-[shouting] Jack!
[doorknob rattling]
Shit, shit, shit.
What? What are you doing, June?
What's going on? Come on.
[grunts]
-[engine stops]
-[gasping softly]
What the fuck?
June!
What the hell was that?
Did you just try to kill yourself
in a low-emissions vehicle?
-Did you hire a housekeeper?
-Yeah.
[stammers]
Did you just try to kill yourself?
No, don't be so dramatic.
I'm being dramatic?
June, if I would have been here
a few minutes later, you would...
Oh, my God.
Was that staged?
April Fool's?
Oh, my God.
I'm fine, by the way. God.
-Hey, where's my beer?
-I threw it out.
Yeah, I'm going dry again this month.
-You threw it out?
-Yes.
Next time, just leave me in the garage.
Oh, that is pretty fucked up,
considering your family history.
Oh, what, my mother killed herself,
so now I can't make a joke?
Yes, exactly, you psycho.
"Psycho."
Wow... That is low...
considering my family history.
Yeah, okay. I'm sorry.
It's just that you drive me crazy, June.
Where's my lucky beer mug?
It's in a box
with your stuff in the bedroom.
You really want me gone, don't you?
Yes, June, I do.
'Cause this is so hard.
It's just tiring, and you don't
have any awareness
of other human beings on this planet.
Zero.
My dad called.
You know he never calls me.
It was really intense
and it was really scary,
and he's sick, and it's... [sighs softly]
-He called?
-Mm-hm...
Don't. June.
Boundaries.
Fine. I'll just get my stuff and leave.
Great. That's the plan.
-What'd you do with my mom's clothes?
-In the closet.
[sighs sharply]
Where are you staying, June?
Where are you gonna go?
-I'm gonna go see my dad.
-Alone?
No, I'm gonna go get Cami.
She still lives in Sonoma.
I thought she wasn't speaking
to anyone in the family.
She's not, but I'm gonna
take her up to see my dad
because he told me he wants to apologize.
[Jack] He did?
You can have one.
He said he was gonna apologize.
Well, he said
he wanted to see me in person.
I know he wants to say sorry
for all the fucked-up stuff he did,
and then I'll be better,
and then you can take me back.
An apology's
not gonna fix everything, June.
That'd be a Band-Aid
on a huge gaping generational wound.
One of those little tiny
circular Band-Aids for warts.
No, it's not a Band-Aid for warts.
Why do you have that ridiculous hat on?
Aren't you sweaty?
-I told you, I'm going up north.
-Put it on when you're up north.
I'm gonna fix my family, Jack.
You'll see.
I'll be whole and you can love me again.
June.
You need help.
[gasps softly] You should come with me.
["Better" playing]
I think I think too much
Harboring things
With such emotion
Feel like I'm choking
Can't help but wonder why
I've gone down
This road inside I've chosen
I think I'm broken
The lights are on
I'm not home
[woman on radio]
I want you to take a look in the mirror
and observe that strong, powerful woman,
and remind yourself, "Ya got this, girl."
-Ya Got This, Girl is hosted by--
-[radio turns off]
[Siri beeps]
-Call Mikey.
-[Siri beeps]
[Siri] Calling Mikey Stevenson.
[voicemail beeps]
[Mikey on voicemail]
If you've made it this far, you're old.
-[voicemail beeps]
-[groans]
Excuse me, Micheline, I'm not old,
I'm driving, so I can't text.
-Okay? So call me--
-[voicemail beeps]
[voicemail operator] If you are satisfied
with your message, press 1.
-[Siri beeps]
-Call Mikey.
[Siri beeps]
[text alert beeps]
"Oops, cellular data exceeded"?
What?
[sighs]
No.
Ya got this, girl.
[whispering] Ya got this...
[birds chirping]
-[car horn honking]
-It wasn't me. It's a...
[pensive music playing]
[muttering] Shit...
[glove compartment closes]
-["A Brief Intermission" playing]
-A mother went up to the mountain
She said it was for gold
[music continues faintly over speakers]
Said buddy was a good boy...
Oh, wow... I haven't seen
actual maps in a long time.
Oh, yeah, my dad stashed them
in my car for when I get lost.
That was nice of him.
Trust me, it's not nice.
It's condescending.
He thinks I'm lost.
-Can I...?
-Yeah, thank you.
My father gets disappointed in me too.
I work here in a brewery,
not in the vineyard with him
like he always wanted.
And how do you deal with that?
Well, whenever we fight,
I grab his hands or his face like this:
I make him look at me in the eyes,
and I say to him:
[speaking Italian]
"Not all doughnuts
come out with a hole."
What does that mean?
It means things
don't always turn out how you planned.
Yeah.
I don't think
I could grab my dad like that.
He's, um-- He's intimidating...
and I haven't been
that close to him since I was a kid.
Maybe I'll make my sister do it.
-[attempting to say Italian phrase]
-[repeating phrase in Italian]
Got it.
[keypad clacking]
[text message sends]
["A Brief Intermission" continues playing]
Where are you going
With the cold skin blues
Well, I just want to be with you
I know you never said
That you would stay forever
And it's getting late
[music stops]
[grunts]
[car alarm chirps]
-[exhales sharply]
-[girl] Daddy! I'm gonna get it.
[gasps]
I told you it wasn't Daddy.
Hi. I'm June.
Auntie June?
Yes. I'm Auntie June.
And I have to pee really, really bad.
-Can I come in?
-[screams]
[shouting]
Stranger danger! Stranger danger!
[June] I'm not a stranger.
I'm Auntie June.
Are you from the North Pole?
[Cami] Girls, just let Daddy in.
Is he dead?
[door opens, then closes]
[June] I hope I don't get a UTI.
[exhales]
Do you have any cranberry juice?
Remember how much cranberry juice
Mom used to have in the fridge?
[sighs] Makes me wonder
how much sex she was having.
[exhales]
Man, it is hot!
I thought we were up north.
[Gigi & Olivia chatting]
[June sighs]
You can't just show up like this.
They don't know you.
Yeah? Whose fault is that?
I'm sorry.
Are my boundaries too healthy for you?
Oh, is that what you call
that wall around you?
What the fuck
is with everyone and boundaries?
Auntie June said a bad word, Mama.
I know, sweet pea.
She doesn't follow the rules.
That's why she's... like this.
Any other words you wanna teach them?
Look, it's Dad's birthday this weekend.
There's going to be a party.
[groans softly]
-Did Joann tell you about the--?
-She left a voicemail.
She said it was stage four
and he had six months.
Yeah. And you just wanna
leave things the way they are?
Me? He has a phone.
My number hasn't changed.
Cami, he's stubborn. You know that.
He barely calls me.
But listen.
He said he wants to talk to us. In person.
He said he wants to apologize.
He said that?
He said, "I want to apologize"?
Well, in his way, yeah.
Oh, my God, June.
This is for real, Cami.
We get to heal as a family.
[Gigi] Olivia, look.
I mean, don't you wanna have
a family again? To have sisters?
I have a family.
Yeah.
Where is Matt?
Why do the girls expect him
to knock at his own house?
-Girls, come in to eat.
-[Olivia] Okay, coming.
Coming!
-[door closes]
-If Dad wants to talk...
he can call me in the next six months.
He smoked pot in front of me.
[somber music playing]
-He knew you could see him?
-Yeah, it was on FaceTime. He knew.
He doesn't have six months, Cami.
We have right now.
Come with me, please.
[Matt] Olivia!
Gigi!
June Stevenson.
Holy shit! Ooh!
Shoot. Holy shoot.
[whispering] I haven't seen you since
you fucked my best man at our wedding.
That was your best man?
-I thought that was your dad.
-Ha!
I need to talk to you.
-Good luck, man.
-[door opens]
-So good to see you.
-Good to see you too.
[exhales sharply]
[Matt] Hello?
-[Olivia] Daddy! Yay!
-[sighs]
-His best man.
-[Matt] Hi!
["Ball and Chain" playing]
[Cami speaking indistinctly]
[Cami] And no screen time after 6.
-Relax.
-[Cami] Okay.
[Cami grunting playfully]
-Come on, kitty cat. Aw...
-[Gigi] I'll miss you.
-I'll be back soon.
-Bye, Mommy.
Bye, love you.
Bye, Pocahontas. Bye, Ariel.
Bye, Captain Jack Sparrow.
[Cami] Don't.
Have fun!
What am I, your Lyft driver?
Five stars if you shut the fuck up.
Well, it wouldn't be the same
Without my little ball and chain
Yeah, my little ball and chain
Yeah, yeah
Well, it wouldn't be the same
Without my little ball and chain
You'd think life was
Just a game without you
And it's anything but the same
[June] Is everyone so relaxed here
because they're, like, tasting all day?
Is that all you see
when you drive through here?
Wineries? Yeah.
God, you're like
a truffle pig for alcohol.
You're like a truffle pig
for [stammering] lameness.
-Oh, my God.
-What?
[chuckling] Oh, my God.
It's like Sleeping with the Enemy
back there.
What, do you beat Matt
if he messes up the hand towel?
[laughing mockingly]
Why are we driving
all the way to Washington?
[in mocking voice] Because I can't
afford a last-minute plane ticket.
Gas is just as expensive.
[in normal voice] Yeah, well, I have
Dad's emergency gas card, so...
Shut up. You still have Dad's gas card?
You are 40 years old.
Jesus flipping Christ, Juniper!
I know. I'm a big fucking loser.
I know, all right?
Okay.
Okay.
What is that?
It's my oil diffuser.
I use essential oils
to block out negative energy.
Oh, my God.
["Over Achiever" playing]
You're welcome to stay
Feel free, it's okay...
These trees are amazing.
-Avenue of the Giants is way better--
-What? What?
[music fades]
What? I'm sorry,
you wanted me to wear these.
As I was saying,
the Avenue of the Giants is way better.
Some of those trees
are, like, thousands of years old.
How do they live that long?
They grow their own defenses.
Their bark protects them
from fungus, rot, wildfires.
That's cool.
I'm not staying the whole time, June.
I'm going up,
and then I'm coming right back.
-I see why you resonate with the trees.
-I'm coming back by plane.
So you'll have to find another Thelma
to your Louise driving home.
Okay, fine.
[resigned exhalation]
But you mean Louise, right?
Because I'm obviously Thelma?
I mean, look at that back seat.
You're clearly the uptight Susan Sarandon,
and I'm the fun, curly-haired Geena Davis.
Juniper.
[sighs]
What? What are you doing
back there anyway?
I am getting my real-estate license.
Oh... What about teaching?
Teaching does not pay
a California mortgage.
You wouldn't understand.
It's grown-up stuff.
[in mocking voice] "It's grown-up stuff."
I mean, I get to sleep with Brad Pitt
because I'm Thelma, so...
[sighs] I'm flying right home, Juniper.
Aw, sugar...
Oh...
[pensive music playing]
[car turns off]
What?
-What are you doing?
-Just real quick.
June, why are we on the coast?
What do you mean?
This is not the direct route
to Washington.
No, it's prettier, and it's only
about a half an inch difference.
June, a half an inch
is, like, two extra hours of driving.
Oh...
Oh?!
-Oh, my God.
-Well, do you wanna go back to the middle?
It looks about an inch
to go back to the middle.
This is ridiculous.
I am Waze-ing us back on track.
Do you have service?
Maps. Old-school.
But listen.
While we're here,
we should really go look.
The glass is left over from
when the beach used to be a landfill.
It's garbage
made into something beautiful.
Get out.
-Did you wanna go?
-Get out!
Okay.
["Worries" playing]
-I see you
-Okay.
And you see me
But there's fire in your eyes now
Saying goodbye
Standing at the door
And looking in on me now
Backwards and forwards
Nothing is sure
But the air that we breathe
Inside and outside
Storms rage
And I don't know what to believe
Ooh...
I follow the rules.
I didn't take the glass.
Shut... up.
Okay.
...Frown
There's no need to worry
She worries, they all run out...
[June] Look, defensive trees.
And everybody knows...
No.
The way the story goes...
[June] Oh, this is a cool place.
[Cami] No!
One woman's son becomes...
[Cami] No!
No. Keep driving.
[June] I have been driving
since last night.
I need to stop.
[Cami groans] Fine. I'll drive.
I can't work in the dark anyway.
Cami, we are going
to have to stop eventually.
And Arcata is the perfect place.
Just hear me out, okay?
No.
Remember when I used
to work at that brewery?
Do you mean when you left me
with our mentally-ill mother
and her revolving door of boyfriends?
I don't know. I was in my 20s.
Anyways, I used to pour beer
for the brewery at festivals.
Sounds like a great job
for a budding alcoholic.
Yeah. And at these festivals,
I met everyone
in the Pacific Northwest brewery scene.
-We were like a family.
-What is your point?
My point is,
is that Redwood Curtain Brewery
is just down the street
and all the way up the coast,
all the way to Dad's,
it is filled with breweries.
So we can stay near one each night,
get some free beer,
and we can have some
actual fun like we used to.
Each night? No, June,
we're getting there tomorrow.
Do you think this is a vacation?
'Cause I need to get there
and do what I need to do
and then go home to my family.
I'm not interested in some beer version
of Sideways with my estranged sister.
Well, I have the keys,
so you better get your shit
because I'm going to the bar.
Oh, great, June.
Go. Find your people.
See if they'll let you stay in their tent
because I'm not sharing a room.
My father is dying.
My sister's a bitch. I'm having a beer.
[car alarm chirps, then door locks]
[country music playing]
[groans]
-What can I get for you?
-Uh...
I'm curious if Dustin still works here.
He does, but he's off tonight.
Okay.
Um, can you tell him that
June Stevenson dropped by?
-Sure.
-Great.
You want a beer?
Yes, I'll have whatever
you recommend that is not an IPA.
Thank you.
Right, you're "not IPA."
Great.
You want company?
-Uh, sure.
-Great.
What's wrong with IPAs?
Nothing if you like all the moisture
sucked out of your mouth.
-Safe to assume you do not like hops.
-In moderation.
And look, there's nothing wrong with IPA.
It's just gotten way out of control.
IPA, Double IPA, Hazy IPA, East Coast IPA,
West Coast IPA, Session IPA,
Grapefruit IPA, Frozen IPA.
I mean, whatever happened
to balance and variety?
There's a whole beer world out there
that is beautiful and delicious.
We are not limited to an accident
that happened on a boat
from Britain to India, people.
[snickers weakly]
So you like fruit beers?
-Why? 'Cause I'm a girl?
-That's not what I was saying.
Look, on a hot day,
a fruit beer is delicious.
But I like, um, a standard pale ale,
malty and hoppy, balanced, "drinkable."
I hate that word, "drinkable."
Me too. That's why I said "drinkable."
What are you drinking?
Triple IPA.
[rock music playing]
[Cami imitating reveille]
It's time to get up
It's time to get up
It's time to get up this morning
[scatting reveille notes]
-It's time to get up--
-Shut up. Shut the fuck up.
Let's go. I need to eat.
[groans]
Why are we at a brewery for breakfast?
Last night, I was thinking
about this concept I learned
at a Sonoma wine tasting
women's empowerment group.
It's called radical acceptance.
So in order to stay sane,
I've decided to lean in.
Seasonal sampler.
That's for her.
This is what you wanted, right?
Beers, breweries.
-Here's coffee and cream for you.
-Thank you.
[blows weakly]
Are you sure you didn't overdo it?
You might not taste the coffee.
Why did you order me this?
I have to drive.
Oh, so you do have limits.
Yeah, I think in California it's 0.08.
That's not what I mean.
I know. I was joking.
Hey, do you have a hotspot?
I wanna text somebody.
Jack?
-How do you know Jack?
-He DM'd me on Instagram.
He did? What did he say?
Did you pretend to try
to kill yourself two days ago?
Oh, my God, no. He's lying.
I hope so, because that would be
pretty crazy given our mom--
Okay, whatever. It was a joke.
I thought that if he realized that he was
actually losing me, he would take me back.
Are you serious?
[scoffs]
Why don't you just boil a rabbit, June?
I'm too young
to understand that reference.
You're turning into her.
I saw it at my wedding.
You're the one with the color-coded
backseat and the drop of cream.
[scoffs]
[shouting] Fucking IPA!
Okay.
Yeah, you're totally sane.
Oh, fuck you.
I'm sorry. Maybe you're turning into Dad.
You know what?
Not all of us had the luxury
of growing up after the divorce.
You got to be a kid. I didn't.
I watched our parents rip each other apart
while holding you in my arms
and changing your diapers and feeding you.
I was too young for all of that.
But now, when we get up there,
he's going to apologize.
-And you're gonna thank me--
-June, he is never going to apologize.
He is a coward.
He doesn't even think
he did anything wrong.
And if you're not careful,
you're gonna turn into both of them.
[slams table, then shouts]
You suck at road trips!
[Cami sighs]
[charged rock music playing]
[uplifting music playing]
-[retching, then coughing]
-[music stops]
[screaming]
[tense notes playing]
[notes stop]
[upbeat music playing]
-[attendant] Cash or card?
-[June] Oh, card. Thank you.
Cool.
All right, 87. Whoa, whoa...
-I got you.
-Whoa, whoa. Hey, what are you doing?
-Don't worry.
-No, it's okay. Thank you.
-I got it. Sir?
-Ma'am.
-I'm gonna need that pump.
-Sir?
-I'm gonna need the pump.
-What do you mean?
-I'm fine. I can pump it--
-Ma'am, let go of the pump.
I'm fine. If you wanna pump it,
you got such a hard-on for pumping.
Asshole.
It's only full service in Oregon.
Well, that's dumb.
[seatbelt clicks]
I'm sorry I left you.
Okay.
[attendant knocks on car]
[pensive music playing]
I'm worried you're pinning
all your hopes on this apology.
He's never going to change.
He may have treated Joann differently
than our mom, but he didn't change.
Okay, got it.
[June] I'm stopping for food.
Okay, let's make this quick.
I'm gonna pee. Order me something good.
Gluten-free.
Oh, I didn't order that.
That is our black agate bock.
It is our sample of the day.
We give it to everybody.
Okay, thanks.
[in foreign accent]
Would you like to try something else?
[chuckles] Let's see.
How is your 804 Pilsner?
[in normal voice] Ah, it is... balanced.
Not too hoppy or malty.
Ah?
It's delicious. May I please have one?
Oh, but don't let me have more than one.
I'm driving and we have a long way to go.
You're leaving me already?
We have matching scrunchies
and everything. See?
[June chuckles]
Ah...
Where are you going?
We're driving up to Washington.
Our dad is dying.
I'm so sorry.
Thank you.
Guess I'm driving.
I'm just having one.
-What? You ordered me beer for breakfast.
-This morning was a failed experiment.
Could I have a diet something?
Do you know Paddy?
I think he used to work here.
No, I just moved here
a few months ago from Ashland.
-Diet something?
-Thank you.
Oh, I'm not done with those.
No, it's just I'm not driving anymore,
so I can handle the samples.
Can you?
[pensive music playing]
Yes.
-I'm Adam.
-I'm June.
This is my sister, Cami.
Aw, I haven't gotten to say that
in so long, sissy.
Nice to meet you both.
Nice to meet you.
Could we eat outside?
Totally.
I'm gonna go find some Wi-Fi
since you won't share your hotspot.
Hurry, we need to get back on the road.
[line ringing]
[blows nervously]
[Michael] Yeah.
Oh--
-Hey, Dad.
-Ah...
What? What do you want?
Oh, I just wanted to let you know
I decided to fly up,
and my plane arrives, um,
tomorrow morning.
No.
-What?
-No. There's too much going on here.
Uh, Mikey flies in the day after tomorrow.
[stammering]
You change your flight, rent a car,
and you can drive her to the island.
Oh, but I can't.
No. I got too much going on here.
[grunts]
Okay, Dad. Day after tomorrow.
[Michael] Day after tomorrow.
June.
Oh, hey, Joann.
You can pick up Mikey on Thursday?
Sure. I'll change my flight.
Ah... That's great.
That's gonna be a big help.
I'll e-mail you the information.
Yeah. Are you sure you're okay doing this?
You're not married anymore.
It's not your responsibility.
[Michael] Oh, Joann--
[Joann] Here, come--
Sorry, honey.
We'll talk when you get here.
-Things aren't easy right now.
-Okay, bye.
We'll see you soon.
[whispering] Shit.
[Cami] Put Daddy back on real quick.
Bye, sweetpea. Kisses.
[smooches into phone]
I know, so how long are they gonna
give us before they start foreclosure?
Well, I--
I gotta go.
Coffee with a single drop of cream.
Thanks.
-Ready?
-Uh, yeah.
There's just been, you know,
there's a slight hitch in the plan.
He didn't know we were on our way?
I didn't wanna tell him I was driving
because I knew he'd be mad
'cause I'm a girl by myself.
By yourself?
He didn't even know I was coming?
-Um...
-June!
I thought it'd be better
if you just showed up.
You know, you'd see him, he'd see you,
and then you'd remember
how much you love each other.
-[groans]
-Please don't leave. It'll be worth it.
I promise. He is going to apologize.
We can stay at this motor lodge
that I saw about a half mile back,
and this nice hipster person
at the coffee shop told me about Astoria,
which is about halfway
from here to Seattle.
-Astoria?
-Yeah.
It's where they filmed Goonies.
You know, the truffle shuffle?
Come on, we could stay there
and explore the town and have some fun.
-Please.
-No.
Juniper, I'm not here
to have fun with you.
Then why are you here?
For an intervention?
It's not working.
We are so close,
like two inches on the map away.
It's like six inches to get back.
Okay, you're in 3, I'm in 4.
-Two rooms?
-Yep, they were cheap.
Thank God for credit cards.
Okay, well, you wanna hang out
or go for a walk or something?
I need some time to think.
And honestly, you need a shower.
[sniffs]
[muttering] It's not that bad.
[upbeat music playing]
[sighs]
[door unlocking]
[door unlocking]
-Night.
-Night.
[both sighing]
[somber music playing]
[seagulls calling in the distance]
[keypad clacking]
[text message sends]
[knocking on door]
Hi... llo.
Hi.
-I like your hair.
-Thank you. It's my first-date hair.
["Anywhere in the World" playing]
Just passing through
Another night...
-[June] So when did you move to Yachats?
-[correcting pronunciation] "Yaw hots."
-What'd I say?
-"Ya-hots."
-That's weird.
-It's the weirdest.
- But, you know, I can follow...
- [dialogue fades away]
Hear the roaring of the falls
Feel the mist against your skin
Do you hear nothing at all?
Do you think of her again?
[inaudible dialogue]
-Come on, come on, come on.
-Okay.
I can't see-- My hair, my hair, my hair!
[both giggling]
We almost kissed.
-That almost happened.
-Shut up!
That almost happened.
That almost happened.
-Anywhere in the world
-[indistinct dialogue]
Anywhere in the world
Sorry about your dad.
Thank you.
How long does he have?
Oh, um, they told me six months,
but, um, then he smoked pot
in front of me, so...
[both chuckle]
Um, I mean, it's not like he was a stoner.
He was a businessman.
But he did smoke pot every day,
um, to manage his anxiety.
But, um, he never would smoke it
in front of us, you know, as kids.
Um, but then the other day,
he did smoke in front of me.
So now I think he's gonna die soon.
Death, it, uh...
changes everything.
Except it all stays the same,
which is the heartbreaking part.
You try to move on, and you get stuck,
and everyone else just keeps on living.
Okay, I'm either too stoned
to follow you or not stoned enough.
I don't-- [chuckles]
I don't know which one it is.
Adam?
[clicks tongue]
My, uh...
little brother...
he died a month ago today.
What?
Yeah, he was hit by a drunk driver
walking home from work.
Are you serious?
[somber music playing]
And the thing is...
we hadn't talked in months.
I hadn't talked to him for a long time
'cause I was still mad at him
about something so stupid.
So, so stupid.
And then, um...
Then he just died.
And I can't--
I can't fix that. I can't--
I can't get my little brother back.
-I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to...
-No, no, no. Blah, bleh... Gross.
[snickers uneasily, then inhales sharply]
No, it's what I liked.
You know, you didn't know.
Don't give me that "I'm so sorry" look.
That one. That's what everyone gives me.
I don't want that.
Let's just--
Let's have fun.
[emotional music playing]
[cans clattering]
-[Adam grunting] Ooh...
-[June] Oh, wow...
[seagulls calling in the distance]
[exhales]
Where are we?
[Adam in groggy voice] Hmm?
Where are we?
My RV.
We wanted to smoke more
but we ran out of weed,
so we walked back here.
[whispering] Shit.
Oh, God...
[gags]
Do you have any water? [clears throat]
[Adam] In the sink.
[muttering]
All right, the sink, the sink...
Do you have any bottled water?
[still in groggy voice]
Yes, L.A., in the fridge.
You don't have anything
in the fridge except for these--
Yeah, there's some cherries.
[somber music playing]
[sighs]
I think you're depressed.
Yeah?
[in sarcastic voice] You think? [groans]
[keys jingling]
[door unlocks]
-June, you up?
-Yeah.
-We should get going.
-Oh, okay.
-I just need to take a shower real quick.
-Okay.
[Cami] I'll check out and grab a coffee.
I'll drive.
I need a break from work, anyway.
[somber music continues playing]
[water running from tub faucet]
[Cami] You smell better.
Look, starlings!
Oh, my God.
I sound just like Mom. [chuckles]
-Pull over. I'm gonna be sick.
-What?
I'm gonna be sick. Pull over.
You okay?
[voice breaking]
Do you really think that I'm like...?
[June shuddering softly]
-Mom?
-Yeah.
I mean, I don't know, June.
You're making a lot of the same choices.
[crying] I know, I know.
What happened last night?
I just, I couldn't get quiet--
I just, I can't get quiet
because there's just all these thoughts
in my head, all this, like...
[June continues crying softly]
Remember that guy, Adam?
We walked back to his RV, and, um...
he had this, um-- He had this bowl of I--
What?
His brother died, and he had this...
God, it must have been
sitting in there ever since he--
[sobbing] Oh, okay, listen.
You have to forgive us.
I don't even know what I did, okay?
And you're just-- You're so mad.
You have to forgive us,
because if you don't,
then we are gonna be like
these cherry raisins.
-Cherry--
-Cherry raisins, okay?
Because that's where
we're all headed, okay?
You have to forgive us,
or else we're all gonna get stuck,
and it'll be, like,
everyone will be like me,
-and I don't want everybody to be like me.
-Okay, okay, okay.
[June continues whimpering softly]
[heaves]
I miss her. [sobbing]
I miss her too.
No cherries.
-They won't be cherry raisins.
-[June chuckling]
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
-Good morning.
-[chuckles]
So Astoria?
[pensive music playing]
[Cami] Why don't we go out tonight?
-[June] Really?
-Yes.
["When I'm With You" playing]
[June] You know I still have
mom's old clothes, right?
Mm...
When I'm losing my mind
When things have overflowed
And I can move on
Let's leave it all behind
Take it on the road
And put the cruise on
-[June] Isn't this great?
-[Cami] Yeah.
God, it's so beautiful.
Hey, you should take one
of your epic photos.
-No, I don't do that anymore.
-Why?
You were so good at it.
Nothing inspires me.
Here you go.
-Thank you.
-Thank you.
[both stammer]
First, you've got to do
the truffle shuffle.
Ha, ha. Give me my beer.
First, you've got to do
the truffle shuffle.
It is bad enough I'm enabling you already.
Give me my beer.
-Do it.
-Come on.
Do it.
[whispers exasperatedly] Oh... my God.
[grumbling]
[June laughing]
Yay. Sissy's happy.
[Cami sighs]
Are you gonna--?
Oh, you're gonna finish that all?
-[groans]
-Whoa!
Mama needed a drink.
Yeah, I really did.
["When I'm With You" continues playing]
And just for tonight
I'm feeling all right
I'm in the moment
When I'm with you...
-Here you go, ladies.
-[both] Thank you.
Like no one's around
I'm in the moment
When I'm with you
[inaudible dialogue]
[barking]
[all mimicking seals barking]
[indistinct chatter]
Just for tonight...
-Hey.
-How you doing?
Good. How you doing?
-Sorry, we gotta go.
-Where you going?
[Cami] We're just gonna go.
Just for tonight
I'm feeling all right
And just for tonight...
Thank you.
-How's things? Good?
-Thank you.
[June giggles]
Yeah, beer is good.
I told you, gluten is amazing.
You should have more of it.
-This is plenty.
-Okay.
So...
-why did you and Matt break up?
-Mm...
-I don't wanna talk about it.
-Come on. No cherry raisins, remember?
-Fine.
-[pensive music playing]
He got drunk, we got in a fight, I fell.
And it scared me and the kids, so I left.
Or I made him leave.
Was it an accident?
-It doesn't matter.
-Okay.
-Did he apologize?
-Yeah.
He stopped drinking. He went to therapy.
[June] That sounds like
he's taking it seriously.
He should.
Yeah.
Do you think
you'll ever get back together?
No.
Absolutely not.
Uh, hey, excuse me,
can we get some more coasters
for my sister's little anger project
she's got going on?
Sure. I do the same thing
when I'm upset with my husband.
I take his socks
and I shape them into little animals
and put them
in order of Darwin's evolution.
Takes all night.
-[pensive music playing]
-Forget Matt, this is your soulmate.
I get off at 1.
-[whispering] She's hot.
-[whispering] I know.
[trunk opens]
[uplifting music playing]
[airplane flying overhead]
-Where is she?
-I don't know.
The plane landed 45 minutes ago.
I thought she'd be here already.
[sighs] Flight number?
UA0959.
Her flight is delayed two hours.
Go park at the cell-phone lot.
I passed.
[in groggy voice] Huh?
-I passed.
-What?
[stammering]
My real-estate exam, I passed.
[in normal voice] That's what
you've been doing this whole time?
Yes. The practice version, but still...
-You passed?
-I passed.
-Oh, my gosh. This is amazing.
-[shouting]
Oh, yes!
[shouting] You passed!
[shouting] I'm gonna sell
so many overpriced houses!
Yeah, you are. So many Silicon Valley
weekend getaway houses.
-Yeah. That's right.
-Bring it in.
[both laughing]
Mikey!
You're late.
How'd you know we were here?
You didn't show, so I had to take
the shuttle to the island-hopper pickup.
Oh...
Why are you here?
["For You" playing]
[muttering] Oh, God...
Must have been 40 times or more
We changed our minds
That's enough to drive anyone mad
Never know what we...
[Mikey] I'm hungry.
Can we get food before we get to the cove?
There's a brewery in Freeland that's good.
Oh, God.
[shouting] What?!
I knew we were related. High five!
Gross.
Cami, you need to sit up.
You can't sleep in bars.
Believe me, I've tried.
[Cami sighs]
[June] Menus...
There.
[sighs]
[Cami scoffs]
Oh, good.
At least we know the alcoholism
comes from Dad's side.
Whatever. Nice to see you again.
-What's it been, seven years?
-[Cami] You'll understand one day.
I'm genuinely sorry
that you were collateral damage.
I was 13.
Come on.
I'm not saying I handled it well,
but there was a whole other life
before you were born
that you don't understand.
You mean when our dad was
married to your fucked-up mom.
-Micheline, she was my mom too.
-Yeah, that's obvious.
You think it was our mom
that was the problem?
Cami, don't. She doesn't understand.
Our mom...
barely survived before
she finally killed herself,
no thanks to the damage Dad did.
-I mean, look what he did to June.
-Wait, he didn't do anything to me.
Well, he never did anything like that
with my mom, so do the math.
Oh, wait. That's right.
Neither one of you graduated college.
I did.
State school doesn't count.
Hey, don't drink it all.
Once she pops, she can't stop.
I've seen it.
[retches]
Oh, no.
[groans]
How was that, huh?
Having a dad who was around,
who supported you...
who went to father-daughter dances
with you?
-It worked out for me.
-Hey, none of this matters anymore.
Yeah, well, I'm sorry it didn't
work out for your mom either.
But hey, maybe she'll get
a bonus prize in the will.
Or a nice refrigerator magnet that says,
"Nice lady, too bad about her
'See You Next Tuesday' daughter."
[Mikey gasps softly]
Whoa!
Actually, she gets more
than a bonus prize.
She gets all of it.
-What?
-They got remarried a couple of days ago.
-Dad wanted her to have everything.
-Everything?
Yep. They were together for 25 years.
They shared the business,
and she's taking care of him now.
It's only fair.
Mm-hm...
[June] Cami.
Hey.
She's still a little girl.
She's a little girl
who's losing her father.
Just remember why you came.
For Dad.
[pensive music playing]
[June sighs sharply]
Hey, Cami. It's okay. We can do it.
We can walk in together.
Wait, Cami. Remember why you came.
I came for the money, June.
I came for the inheritance.
I thought, at very least,
something good could come
of his existence, if only for my kids.
But now you have a chance. Okay?
He's gonna apologize,
and you can forgive him.
I don't need an apology from him, June.
He was barely my dad.
No, he is our dad. And he was fucked up.
But I can make peace
with what he did to Mom
[voice breaking]
and what Mom did to herself...
because I can't control any of that.
But I can control
who I let into my life now.
And I cannot forgive him
for what he did to you.
He didn't do anything to me.
And then what you did to me.
-Uh--
-The pushing and the name-calling
and the psychological torture.
Oh, God, that is what siblings do.
You are ten years older than me.
We're sisters.
You stabbed me with knitting needles.
No, I don't remember that.
I still have the scars.
I protected you.
I protected you
so that you wouldn't hear them,
so that you would be okay.
You also abused me, June.
He taught you that that was okay.
No, he stopped. He stopped. It stopped.
With Joann, it stopped.
But it was all over our mother.
It's still all over you.
It's why I left the family.
It's why Mom killed herself.
You shut up. You shut up!
I wish you were never born!
[yelling] You fucking stole my childhood,
you stupid little bitch!
[June sobbing]
[somber music playing]
[shouting] Fuck!
[tires screeching]
[continues shouting] Dad!
-[in normal voice] Where is he?
-Hold on.
-I need to talk to him right now.
-Not now.
Something's wrong.
[siren wailing]
-What just happened?
-I don't know.
Did you do those things?
I had a different childhood
than you did, okay?
Why am I just learning about this now?
You all treat me like some precious baby
that can't handle anything.
Is that why nobody told me
that he was this sick?
[siren continues wailing]
Why am I the last to know everything?
I'm an adult. I can handle it.
I didn't know any of this
was going to happen either, okay?
-I just got here.
-Yeah, with Cami.
You must have known something.
Why else would she be here?
Now I have to find all this out
in the car on the way to the hospital.
You're useless, June.
I know.
[somber music playing]
-[EKG beeping]
-[Michael coughing]
[Michael groaning]
[Joann whispering] Come with me.
What's going on?
[sighs]
They're giving him a catheter,
and then they're gonna run some tests.
-Can I talk to him?
-He's pretty out of it.
You need to give him some space right now.
-June.
-What? I won't bother him.
[pensive music playing]
[nurse] Sir.
-No. [groans]
-[nurse speaking indistinctly]
[nurse] It's okay.
Here. We need to close this.
This will make you more comfortable.
He's dehydrated,
and one of his tumors is septic,
and it's gone into his bloodstream.
Well, that doesn't sound good.
They can fix it,
but we have a choice to make.
Okay.
Technically, I have your father's
power of attorney,
but this needs to be a family decision.
Now, here are the choices.
He can die from the septic tumor
in the next 48 hours...
or he can die from the cancer
in the next few months.
Those are pretty shitty options.
If we decide to stay here,
they'll make him very comfortable.
They'll give him
all the morphine he needs.
He won't be in any pain.
So, what are you two thinking?
-[Mikey] Die here.
-[June] Go home.
-No.
-He doesn't want to live like this.
No, I know, but I just,
I need to talk to him.
But this is all so sudden.
I mean, we just got here.
What do you think?
I think the last week has been horrible.
And I know he doesn't want this.
No, I think we should wait.
I mean, this is just so fast
and he is so young.
It's the right thing to do.
[stammering]
I mean, just-- Can I have a minute?
We'll all take a minute.
I'll let the doctor know
that we're processing
and have him transferred
to a private room.
[Joann inhales sharply]
And then I'll go back to the house
and pick up a few things for him.
I'm gonna need
your help with that, Mikey.
June, can you stay with your father?
I don't think he should be alone now.
What? No, I...
And then later, we'll talk again,
figure out what we want to do.
Come on, Mikey.
[EKG beeping]
[Michael groaning and coughing]
[Michael groaning weakly]
[monitor alarm beeping]
[monitor alarm volume decreases]
[Michael continues groaning]
[Michael coughing]
[Michael sighs weakly]
[groaning and coughing]
[whispering] Oh, God...
[Michael moaning weakly in pain]
[EKG beeping continues]
[June exhales sharply]
[Michael moaning feebly]
[sighs]
[ticking]
[ominous music playing]
-[ticking and beeping gets louder]
-[groaning]
-[sighs]
-[Michael sobbing softly]
That's enough. That's enough.
[Michael groaning]
[Michael coughing]
How's the patient?
Pillow smothering's not as easy
as they make it look on TV.
Center of mass is very important.
What?
Your dad snored. I did some research.
I wasn't really gonna do--
You know that I wasn't...
I know. I'm sorry.
I was trying to lighten the mood.
[sighs] I don't know what I'm doing here.
Oh, June.
He's miserable. I mean, he keeps moaning.
He can't live like this.
-Let's get the doctor in here to try to...
-Fix him?
What, for us? That doesn't seem fair.
So, what do you want to do?
[pensive music playing]
Let him go.
Are you ready for that?
I'll go tell the doctor and find Mikey.
He loves you.
He loves all his girls.
[dramatic music playing]
[shuddering]
[panting softly]
[line ringing]
[on voicemail] Hi, you've reached
Camilla Riley. Please leave a message.
Hey, it's me. Um...
Uh, we're at the hospital
on Whidbey Island, and, um...
it's not good.
[voice breaking]
Um... Dad has a stomach infection,
and, um...
uh, we decided to let him go.
Um, the doctors think
it's gonna be pretty soon,
so, um...
I just wanted to let you know.
So...
Um, and also I just
wanted to say that, um...
that there's no excuse
for my behavior today.
And there's no excuse, really,
for my behavior ever.
I spent a lot of my...
life blaming other people
for the shitty hand I was dealt,
-and I can't live like this.
-[PA beeps]
I can't live like this anymore.
[woman speaking indistinctly over PA]
Because the truth is, I, um...
I think maybe it wasn't a joke...
with Jack in the garage.
I think a part of me
maybe wanted it to work.
And I don't want to be Mom.
I don't wanna die.
She didn't have any tools
to deal with anything,
and I think I need to get some tools.
So anyway, I just want to say sorry.
And then I'm gonna-- I'm gonna--
I'm gonna start being more accountable.
So...
And I am...
I think I have to start
with forgiving Dad.
But I can't even go near him, Cami.
I can't even go near him, he's my dad.
But, um...
this isn't your problem.
So, I love you, and I hope
I get to see you again one day.
Bye, sissy.
[woman over PA] Dr. Kravitz, you have
a visitor in the main lobby.
Dr. Kravitz, a visitor in the main lobby.
I stole some stuff from the gift shop
to warm up the room.
Thought it might be nice.
-June.
-Lord have mercy.
Where is he? Oh, my God, did I miss it?
-Is he gone?
-No, no.
They just took him out for some tests.
He'll be back soon.
There's a family room
at the end of the hall.
I think I'm gonna go rest my eyes.
-Can I come too?
-Yeah, sure.
But what about all this stuff?
I mean, I...
-I think you'll do great.
-[June] No, no, no.
But what happens when he comes back?
I mean, what do I do?
Just be here with him.
-And what about you?
-I've taken care of him for 25 years.
I'm okay.
-There's some ice chips if he needs them.
-But, I don't...
June, you know what I do
whenever I have to face something big?
The Wonder Woman stance.
Gets you through every time.
Life is messy.
Clean up your side so you can move on.
Thank you.
-And June?
-Yeah?
-Don't steal any more shit.
-[chuckles]
They'll come looking
for the only interracial family
on the San Juan Islands.
[muttering] Okay, okay.
[exhales deeply]
[poignant music playing]
[nurse] Excuse me.
Don't be scared.
[both groaning]
-Do you want to help move him?
-Sure.
Yeah.
Um...
Uh-huh...
Nice and close.
Grab the corners of the sheets.
We'll lift him on three.
-Oh, my God.
-One, two, three.
[all grunting]
[exhales sharply]
Thank you.
You did great.
[groaning]
I'm hooking you back up.
I'm coming in through your gown.
All right.
-I'm gonna replace your IV now.
-[Michael groans softly]
Um, I can-- I can do it.
-You wanna tuck him in?
-Mm-hm...
[nurse] Let us know
if he needs more ice chips, okay?
Okay.
I'm just gonna, um...
I'm just gonna tuck you in. It's okay.
[emotional music playing]
Oh, God. This is...
[exhales uncomfortably]
[breathing shakily]
I am a holeless doughnut.
And that's okay.
Because sometimes things
don't turn out the way you expect.
Like me.
I know you were disappointed in me.
But I was disappointed in you too.
[whimpering]
And I really wanted an apology.
But now I know I'm never gonna get one,
and maybe you were never
gonna apologize.
So I'm just going to forgive you.
[June sobbing softly]
No cherry raisins.
I love you.
Always, okay?
[in weak voice] Sweet pea...
No, Dad, it's not Cami. It's June.
[uplifting music playing]
-[Cami] Hey...
-Hey...
[whispering] I came back for you.
Well, I'm glad for you that you came back.
[Michael in raspy voice] Ice chips?
-Ice chips, okay.
-Over there.
Mm...
-More? Okay.
-Mm-hm...
Thank you.
Hey, Dad.
[soft sob]
[snoring]
[keypad clacking]
[camera clicks]
[door opens]
[whispering] Hey.
Wake up.
Come here.
[in normal voice]
It's time. You need to go in.
No, I'm okay. I just want to sleep.
You said you didn't want us
to treat you like a baby anymore,
so I'm gonna give it to you straight.
He's almost gone,
so you need to go in there.
-[whispering] I'm scared.
-[whispering] I know.
But it's really peaceful in there.
You'll see.
You're not doing it for him.
You're doing it for you.
'Cause you're the one that's
gonna be here when he's gone.
So you grab his hand
and you say goodbye, okay?
Hey, he loves you so much.
You made him a good dad.
So you go in there
and you take care of yourself
so you don't waste the next 20 years
wishing you had, okay?
Okay.
[poignant music playing]
-Are you okay?
-Yeah.
-Be right back.
-All right.
Is he...?
[sighs]
Did you...?
-What?
-What? Nothing.
So, what happened?
He was breathing, and it was quiet.
And then he just stopped.
It was really peaceful.
Oh, that's good.
Yeah.
I love you.
I love you too.
[pensive music playing]
[Joann] Morning.
Your father's ashes
will be ready tomorrow afternoon.
I was thinking we could take the boat out
and scatter them in the ocean.
It's your father's birthday today.
[sniffs]
[eccentric music playing]
[seagulls calling in the distance]
[Joann in slow, echoing voice]
Should we sing?
[in normal voice] Hey, should we
put the candles on and sing?
-[upbeat music playing]
-Cami!
I'm sorry, I thought it was time.
Did you find something
in your dad's closet?
Did you give it to your sisters?
But you didn't give any to me.
["The Deepest of Blues" playing]
[seagulls calling in the distance]
Stubborn as the winter
Fiercer than the August sun
I know you better
Than anyone
[boat revs gently]
[softly] Here we go.
Through the rain
Till the moment we go under
Ill remain
Tried and true
Into the deepest of blues
Ooh...
[June] Too much, too much,
too much, too much, too much.
-[Mikey] Sorry. Sorry, sorry.
-That's okay. That's okay, baby.
[sniffling tearfully]
Getting close to comfort...
I think I got a little of Dad in my mouth.
You let down your guard
Holding on was always
The hardest part
Into the deepest of blues
Ah...
Ah...
Oh, ah...
-You get that oil change?
-[June] Yes.
You know, your dad would die
if he knew you drove that car like that.
I know.
He died anyway. He was stubborn like that.
[inhales sharply]
I miss him already.
Mom.
Um...
you two take care of each other.
We will.
Okay. Come here.
Mm-hm...
When you get home, you let me know
what you need to save that house.
You don't have to take care of this alone.
We're family.
All right.
And I want to meet my grandbabies.
I'll be back.
I promise.
You're not useless, June.
I know.
[June] I love it.
Oh, my goodness.
[airplane descending]
[woman speaking indistinctly over PA]
-Okay. You sure about this?
-[sighs sharply]
'Cause I was actually thinking
Grand Canyon, off cliff.
I concede. You are Thelma.
[whispering] Yes...
Are you sure
you're gonna be okay all alone?
Yeah.
I got a number for a therapist,
and I'm gonna call them on the way home,
see if I can get a,
you know, real system for life.
-That's good.
-Yeah.
That's really good.
Hmm...
I think I might call Matt and...
be nice to him.
Wow...
I will not call Jack,
which will be nice for him.
Hey, maybe on your way back...
Yeah. I'll see you soon.
I'm really glad you stayed.
Hey!
Goonies never say die!
[sighs sharply]

["Another Map" playing]
I don't always get it right
Don't always see the sign
But there is a reason why
I'm staying for the ride
You, you, you
You take the long way back
And find you're off the track
When you, yeah
You, you, you
When you have lost the path
I'll be another map for you
For you
It won't always go to plan
Not making all the shots
But we do the best we can
And that's something we forgot
You, you, you
You take the long way back
And find you're off the track
When you, yeah
You, you, you
When you have lost the path
I'll be another map for you
For you
We've stayed up through the night
And let's get back on the road
And keep driving
When you see
It's lined with giants
Take it in, take it in, take it in
When you, you, you
You take the long way back
And find you're off the track
When you
Yeah
You, you, you
When you have lost the path
I'll be another map for you
For you, you, you
You can't rewrite the past
Because we're meant to last
When you
Yeah, you, you, you
When you have lost the path
I'll be another map for you
For you
