#50. Jackie reads a bedtime story for Anna and Ben
JACKIE | ''One day, five men came in very funny hats to pick the biggest... |
fastest, roughest bull to fight in the bullfights in Madrid.'' |
#51. In the skate field
ANNA | Hi, Mom! (to Ben) Are you okay? There we go. |
Almost. Well, almost not falling. That was the first time he fell. | |
JACKIE | Awesome fall. You gonna try it again? |
ESABELLE | One over here, everybody. |
ALL | Oh. Cheese. |
JACKIE | Are you gonna go back? For more? |
BEN | Yeah. |
JACKIE | Alright. Go for it. I'm watching. |
JACKIE | You know, Ben was born in two hours, went straight to the breast... |
and camped there for the next four days... | |
always with this this mischievous look on his face... like he had a secret or something. | |
And his blanket always looked like a cape. Even the nurses said so. | |
He loves hearing that story over and over... about how he was born a magician. | |
ESABELLE | And her? |
JACKIE | Twenty-eight hours. |
The doctors wanted to go in and get her... but I knew she'd come in her own time. | |
That's just the way she is. Can't let anybody rush her. | |
ESABELLE | I'll keep that in mind. |
#52. In the hospital
JACKIE | Didn't work, did it? |
DOCTOR | I'm sorry. |
JACKIE | Hey, you did everything you could. |
DOCTOR | But there's still some options available. There's a treatment in Paris, one in Switzerland. |
And they become highly recommended. | |
JACKIE | Thanks, but... I think I wanna spend my time at home... with my family. |
DOCTOR | Yeah. |
JACKIE | Christmas will be here before you know it. |
#53. In Jackie's house
LUKE | (brings a tree for Christmas) I thought you might need one of these. |
JACKIE | I do. It looks great. |
(luke moves the tree) A little more. Okay. I think that's fine. Stop. | |
Oh, perfect. Smells great too. Thanks. | |
LUKE | What are we supposed to do without you? |
JACKIE | You'll be fine. You're a great father. |
I just never really... I didn't give you the chance to realize it. | |
LUKE | Thank you. Merry Christmas. |
