Proudly Presents Season 4 Episode 09 All right So we're all here because we love teddy and maggie and we want them to get healthy again.
Maybe that's why some of us are here.
And we know they can't get healthy until they realize that they have a problem and get proactive about it, which tommy and I can attest to.
True.
Yeah,look at tommy.
He's as healthy as a horse,you know.
What--what's that supposed to mean? What do you think that's supposed to mean? Oh,jesus,tom,it was a compliment.
Oh,yeah.
That was a compliment?Ok.
Why don't you say somethin' like most people,like,"hey,you look good"? You know,you try to say something nice to somebody, and what -- Why didn't you say I look good or whatever.
I mean,you're bringing animals into this.
-Guys,guys,please,please.
-He started it.
Give it a rest.
As I was saying,I've been a part of a lot of interventions,ok? They're never easy.
Some people get extremely defensive and even violent when they're faced with the reality that is their addiction.
But I just want you to remember one thing.
It's for their own good.
So,everybody bring their letter? Yes.
I just Jesus,garrity.
What?I got a lot to say.
Obviously.
Ok.
Now--oh,tom.
I got it all up here.

Try and kill 2 birds with one stone,all right? More like a badger and a rhinoceros.
Hey,whoa.
Don't be callin' my wife a badger,all right? You're assuming she's the badger.

My problem? Which one? The drinking.
[Sighs.]
This is gonna be really fun.
Mags,why don't you,uh,take a seat here next to your husband, and we'll get started.

Sorry,pal.
Maggie, we just want you to know that everybody is in this room because we love you,and we feel that you're slipping away.

Wait a minute.
Is this one of those,uh--those intervention thingies? Yeah.
I'll do it.
[Laughs.]
You'll do it? Yeah.
I'm tired of this shit.
Wakin' up god knows where with god knows who, havin' done god knows what, feelin' like an atomic bomb went off inside my skull.
I'm finished.
Box me up and ship me to rehab.
Ok,you know? We got you set up at an outpatient facility.
They have counseling there.

I'd like to-- to say my piece.
I'm with the kid.
I got grievances to air.
Oh,blow it out of your ass,old man.
I am not gonna give you the satisfaction.
Ok.
You know what?She's not taking this seriously.
She's gonna climb up onto a bar stool 5 minutes after she walks out that door.
I'm not gonna take this seriously? Oh,I beg to differ.
Watch this,sean.
[Cellphone rings.]
Yeah.
Ok.
All right.

Hey,guys.

Hey,teddy.
Hey.
How you all doin'? Good.
Hey,uh,where's the barbecue? Are you nuts? I am very disappointed in you,young lady,very disappointed.
This was my intervention.
Oh,I'm sorry.
But I love the show.
What's goin' on? Teddy,we just want you to know that everybody is in this room because we love you.
We do.
We And we just--we just want to say a couple things to you.
There's no reason to get angry about anything.
No,no,no.
Because-- We wrote letters.
Letters.
We have letters.
And notes.
Small.
Short.
And we just want you to keep an open mind.
Oh,for christ's sakes! This is it? Get out of my way,you goddamn pussies.
Look,you,everybody's in this room because you are acting like a raging asshole, and you're pissing us off.
You are 57 ye theodore, and still you behave like a goddamn child.
You take zero responsibility for all the shit you pull to feed your habit.
We are sick of it.
You grow up,or you're gonna lose everybody in this room, and you're gonna wind up drinkin' yourself to death.
Do you understand what I'm saying to you? Huh? I'm good.
So,what are you people tryin' to say? You gotta get off the sauce,teddy.
You gotta quit drinkin'.
This is comin' from you? Look at this place.
Look at your life.
Does being sober make your life any easier? Not really,but-- Well,there you go.
Hey.
Hey.
It's a process,ok? It's a--you know,one day at a time type of thing.
You do one day at a time,then 2 days, and turn days into weeks and then weeks into months, and gradually,slowly,it goes from bein' shitty to bein' good to eventually bein', uh,great.
Right? Right.
Great.
So what do you say,teddy? You gonna get some help? Uh,no.
Aw,goddamn it! Teddy.
Teddy.
No.
No,no,no,no.
Hey,hey,hey,hey.
Hey,listen to me.
She's right.
You leave now,you go out that door,that's it.
Ah-ah! Cousins,family,nobody calls you back,ok? Even if you need help and you call us,we're not callin' you back.
You're done.
[Shudders.]
Shit! Can't go back to rehab.
It doesn't work for me! Good.
Then let us help you,teddy.
God.
We love you! Hey-- -What? Everything's a negotiation,right? Teddy doesn't want to go to rehab,but he does want to get better.
I guess.
Mick,you start takin' him to meetings? Yeah,sure.
I mean,shit,we got enough drunks in this room to start our own meetings.
That's not a bad idea.
There's no reason we can'T.

You all right? I'm--yeah.

What'd you take? Well,I--I took,uh,a few,um,percocet and-- and whatever advil I had left.
How many percocets did you take? Uh,I don't know.
Whatever was left,like 3.
Yeah.
What's--what's goin' on with your ass? Uh,I--I cut myself.
Ok,I don't wanna monday morning quarterback you here, but you know,if you're trying to commit suicide, you're supposed to cut your wrists,not your ass.
Yeah,I know.
I-I've just been,um,like,takin' these pills,you know,and-- and I-- I never took--messed with 'em before,you know, and they got my head kind of,like,messed up, and I was thinkin' about my mom and the chief and-- and I got--thinkin' these crazy thoughts.
But I'm all good.
I'm--I'm sorry.
I'm good.
You're good.
Yeah.
Yeah.

Yeah,that's a real good mix,kid.

Tom,come on.
I just wanna sit down.
Pussy.
Come--come on.
You don't have to do this.
It's cool,man.
I'm good now.
I told you,I-- I just--I came up here for some fresh air,you know? I'm--I'm-- you know,I mean,my mom and everything.
[Sputters.]
It's cool,tom.
Just can we just go back down? Got a smoke,kid? Yeah? Yeah.
Aw,boy.
Got a light? Aw,boy.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
Aw,it's been a while.
Well--[Clears throat.]
Kid gotta look at the bright side.
Least your mom died before you did,you know.
I mean,that's,uh,natural course of events,you know.
Know what I'm sayin'? Parents are supposed to die before their kids.
That was one of the things that was so screwed up about 9/11,you know.
All these guys doin' the right thing,dyin',parents havin' to bury 'em.
It's not right.
Besides,I'm sure your mom was a pain in the ass half the time anyways.
Half the times she probably called you,you probably looked at your phone and let it go to voice mail,right,'cause you didn't wanna talk to her.
Much as I love my wife,same thing,man.
Sometimes,you know,we'd separate, arrange the schedule so we didn't have to see each other, except in passing for a couple weeks at a time.
And then,you know,you see 'em for a couple hours,and,you know, you start to get all those great feelings back.
Then a couple days later,you hate 'em again.
But at least she died before you did.
'Cause I'll tell you what,there's nothin' worse than buryin' your kid.
I did it,you know.
Remember after 9/11 when they found jimmy,what was it,like, And after the funeral, we were havin' a party,whatever, and my aunt bridie,his mother,has havin' a rough time, and my cousin noreen,his sister,was tryin' to help her along, and she said,"you know,ma,the only thing that's really gonna make this go away is time.
" I'll never forget what my aunt bridie said.
She said,"I'm 77 years old.
I don't have enough time.
" It's the truth.
I could live to be 106.
I'm not gonna get over connor.
And he was a real pain in the ass that mornin'.
He was ridin' that bike in and out in between cars.
You know,I was tryin' to fix the truck.
But I got 2 healthy kids.
Whatever else I say about my wife,she's been a great mother,you know? Lot to be said for that,you know? A lot.
Hey,do me a favor,will you? Step on that for me.
You got it? Yeah.
It was water,asshole.
Jesus christ.
You scared the shit out of me.
This building ain't up to code.
You ok? Yeah,fine.
Jesus.
Shit.
Mike,uh go,uh--go get your,uh,neighbor.
Tell--tell 'em to open this window here,all right? Ok.
Shit.
Our father who art in heaven,hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.
Lead us not into temptation,but deliver us from evil.
Amen.

Proudly Presents Season 4 Episode 09 All right So we're all here because we love teddy and maggie and we want them to get healthy again.
Maybe that's why some of us are here.
And we know they can't get healthy until they realize that they have a problem and get proactive about it, which tommy and I can attest to.
True.
Yeah,look at tommy.
He's as healthy as a horse,you know.
What--what's that supposed to mean? What do you think that's supposed to mean? Oh,jesus,tom,it was a compliment.
Oh,yeah.
That was a compliment?Ok.
Why don't you say somethin' like most people,like,"hey,you look good"? You know,you try to say something nice to somebody, and what -- Why didn't you say I look good or whatever.
I mean,you're bringing animals into this.
-Guys,guys,please,please.
-He started it.
Give it a rest.
As I was saying,I've been a part of a lot of interventions,ok? They're never easy.
Some people get extremely defensive and even violent when they're faced with the reality that is their addiction.
But I just want you to remember one thing.
It's for their own good.
So,everybody bring their letter? Yes.
I just Jesus,garrity.
What?I got a lot to say.
Obviously.
Ok.
Now--oh,tom.
I got it all up here.

Try and kill 2 birds with one stone,all right? More like a badger and a rhinoceros.
Hey,whoa.

This is gonna be really fun.
Mags,why don't you,uh,take a seat here next to your husband, and we'll get started.

Sorry,pal.
Maggie, we just want you to know that everybody is in this room because we love you,and we feel that you're slipping away.

Wait a minute.
Is this one of those,uh--those intervention thingies? Yeah.
I'll do it.
[Laughs.]
You'll do it? Yeah.
I'm tired of this shit.
Wakin' up god knows where with god knows who, havin' done god knows what, feelin' like an atomic bomb went off inside my skull.
I'm finished.
Box me up and ship me to rehab.
Ok,you know? We got you set up at an outpatient facility.
They have counseling there.

I'm with the kid.
I got grievances to air.
Oh,blow it out of your ass,old man.
I am not gonna give you the satisfaction.
Ok.
You know what?She's not taking this seriously.
She's gonna climb up onto a bar stool 5 minutes after she walks out that door.
I'm not gonna take this seriously? Oh,I beg to differ.
Watch this,sean.

This was my intervention.
Oh,I'm sorry.
But I love the show.
What's goin' on? Teddy,we just want you to know that everybody is in this room because we love you.
We do.
We And we just--we just want to say a couple things to you.
There's no reason to get angry about anything.
No,no,no.
Because-- We wrote letters.
Letters.
We have letters.
And notes.
Small.
Short.
And we just want you to keep an open mind.
Oh,for christ's sakes! This is it? Get out of my way,you goddamn pussies.
Look,you,everybody's in this room because you are acting like a raging asshole, and you're pissing us off.
You are 57 ye theodore, and still you behave like a goddamn child.
You take zero responsibility for all the shit you pull to feed your habit.
We are sick of it.
You grow up,or you're gonna lose everybody in this room, and you're gonna wind up drinkin' yourself to death.
Do you understand what I'm saying to you? Huh? I'm good.
So,what are you people tryin' to say? You gotta get off the sauce,teddy.
You gotta quit drinkin'.
This is comin' from you? Look at this place.
Look at your life.
Does being sober make your life any easier? Not really,but-- Well,there you go.
Hey.
Hey.
It's a process,ok? It's a--you know,one day at a time type of thing.
You do one day at a time,then 2 days, and turn days into weeks and then weeks into months, and gradually,slowly,it goes from bein' shitty to bein' good to eventually bein', uh,great.
Right? Right.
Great.
So what do you say,teddy? You gonna get some help? Uh,no.
Aw,goddamn it! Teddy.
Teddy.
No.
No,no,no,no.
Hey,hey,hey,hey.
Hey,listen to me.
She's right.
You leave now,you go out that door,that's it.
Ah-ah! Cousins,family,nobody calls you back,ok? Even if you need help and you call us,we're not callin' you back.
You're done.
[Shudders.]
Shit! Can't go back to rehab.
It doesn't work for me! Good.
Then let us help you,teddy.
God.
We love you! Hey-- -What? Everything's a negotiation,right? Teddy doesn't want to go to rehab,but he does want to get better.
I guess.
Mick,you start takin' him to meetings? Yeah,sure.
I mean,shit,we got enough drunks in this room to start our own meetings.
That's not a bad idea.
There's no reason we can'T.
I mean No?Right? Sure.

Yeah,ok.
We could do it monday,wednesday.
Except I'm not a drunk.

Aw,boy.
Got a light? Aw,boy.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
Aw,it's been a while.
Well--[Clears throat.]
Kid gotta look at the bright side.
Least your mom died before you did,you know.
I mean,that's,uh,natural course of events,you know.
Know what I'm sayin'? Parents are supposed to die before their kids.
That was one of the things that was so screwed up about 9/11,you know.
All these guys doin' the right thing,dyin',parents havin' to bury 'em.
It's not right.
Besides,I'm sure your mom was a pain in the ass half the time anyways.
Half the times she probably called you,you probably looked at your phone and let it go to voice mail,right,'cause you didn't wanna talk to her.
Much as I love my wife,same thing,man.
Sometimes,you know,we'd separate, arrange the schedule so we didn't have to see each other, except in passing for a couple weeks at a time.
And then,you know,you see 'em for a couple hours,and,you know, you start to get all those great feelings back.
Then a couple days later,you hate 'em again.
But at least she died before you did.
'Cause I'll tell you what,there's nothin' worse than buryin' your kid.
I did it,you know.
Remember after 9/11 when they found jimmy,what was it,like, And after the funeral, we were havin' a party,whatever, and my aunt bridie,his mother,has havin' a rough time, and my cousin noreen,his sister,was tryin' to help her along, and she said,"you know,ma,the only thing that's really gonna make this go away is time.
" I'll never forget what my aunt bridie said.
She said,"I'm 77 years old.
I don't have enough time.
" It's the truth.
I could live to be 106.
I'm not gonna get over connor.
And he was a real pain in the ass that mornin'.
He was ridin' that bike in and out in between cars.
You know,I was tryin' to fix the truck.
But I got 2 healthy kids.
Whatever else I say about my wife,she's been a great mother,you know? Lot to be said for that,you know? A lot.
Hey,do me a favor,will you? Step on that for me.
You got it? Yeah.
It was water,asshole.
Jesus christ.
You scared the shit out of me.
This building ain't up to code.
You ok? Yeah,fine.
Jesus.
Shit.
Mike,uh go,uh--go get your,uh,neighbor.
Tell--tell 'em to open this window here,all right? Ok.
Shit.
Our father who art in heaven,hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come.
Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us.
Lead us not into temptation,but deliver us from evil.
Amen.
