Episode #16: The Collision Confession
The scene is a montage of everyone having breakfast, as their lives hang somewhat in limbo. Throughout the scene, Rilo Kiley's "Does He Love You" plays the entire time in the background, louder throughout the entire scene until the very end when dialogue is spoken. It begins with Ryan and Marissa sitting and eating breakfast together on Monday morning at the dining table. Their chairs are pulled close together as they share the paper while they eat. No words are spoken between them, and although they are comfortable and enjoy the others company, they find themselves looking up at the two empty chairs across from them. Summer and Seth are conspicuously absent. As they both look up, they turn to the other and meet each others gaze and hold it as their eyes convey their inner sadness about how their relationship has not only deteriorated with their best friends but that there is another relationship in their life, that with Caitlyn, which is up in the air at the moment. The camera leaves them and goes to show Seth and Summer sitting in their bed, eating their breakfast and drinking their coffee while they each read, Summer her latest script and Seth his comic books. Although she is only one actually working, they both look very studious. Their backs are straight up again the headboard, their hair messy, and the covers pulled up to their waist. Their pajamas are simple and show due to the position of the blankets on them. While the camera stays with them, they each steal miserable glances at the other. While they are happy and content with each other, the events of the past couple of days have left them shaken and unsure of their future, and their anger towards their best friends and family is waning and being replaced with regret and sadness, but both are too stubborn to say anything. Instead they just keep silent and occasionally look at their partner hoping to see something that inspires them to make the first move towards reconciliation with Ryan and Marissa. As the camera pulls away from them, they both sigh audibly. It goes next to Sandy, Kirsten, and Zoe silently not eating their food as they watch a glum and despondent Caitlyn eat her breakfast without even looking up from the table. With her head down, she does not know that they are all watching her with concern evident in their eyes. As the doorbell rings, Kirsten gets up to get it, but Caitlyn still stares at her food and Sandy and Zoe continue staring at her. As Kirsten opens the door, she is enveloped in a hug by Jane, surprising her. Once the older woman lets go of her, Kirsten leads her into the kitchen and shows her Caitlyn and both women just stare at her together as well. Caitlyn finally looks up and meets her Grandmother's eyes, but instantly lowers her gaze back to the table and continues eating. Zoe gets out of her chair and goes over and puts her hand on Caitlyn's arm to comfort her. Caitlyn looks up and smiles slightly, but the sadness does not leave her eyes. With that, the camera changes again. It goes to the diner. Jimmy is sitting happily in his regular booth with a large breakfast spread out in front of him, completely oblivious as to what has happened with his daughters over the weekend because he still has not gone home. He's been staying at the office. As he eats, the door opens and the bell makes him look up. He locks gazes with the man who walked in, and as the camera shifts to the man, it is revealed to be Dan with a baseball cap on trying to remain as nondescript as possible. At first the two men watch each other warily, but eventually Jimmy just smiles, shrugs his shoulders, and goes back to his food, leaving a very relieved Dan to find a seat. Although Jimmy may not have recognized Dan from anywhere, Dan could have sworn that he had seen Jimmy before or at least someone who looked like him. It was the eyes. Leaving the diner behind, the camera goes to Caleb as he is talking on the phone and finishing his breakfast in his large dining room. Annoying him, Julie saunters in and makes herself a plate of food, sitting down close to Caleb so that she can listen into his conversation. Without giving her a chance, he stands up, shoots her a glare, and leaves the room. Julie just smirks and starts to eat, their typical morning routine now. Finally, the camera goes back to Ryan and Marissa as they sit and continue to stare off into space and think. Slowly turning to each other, Marissa is the first to break the silence.
Marissa: We need to fix this, Ryan.
Ryan: I know. Meet me at the fountain in front of my office building at noon and we'll have lunch and plan….something. (He takes her hand and kisses it before they stand up and go to take their plates to the kitchen. As they leave the room, the camera fades out and goes black as the music once again becomes louder until nothing is heard and the scene ends.)
Credits and Commercial Break
The second scene opens up with Seth on the phone with his mystery woman late in the morning that same day. He is sitting in the living room, aimlessly flicking through the channels, looking for something to watch, in theory, but really just playing with the remote to keep his hands busy while he talks. The TV is muted so as not to disturb his conversation. He is on the couch, legs up on it, flopped down, and in a comfortable position. He is waiting for the person to answer the phone while he lays there. After a moment, they finally answer.
Seth: Finally, what took you so long? (As always when he talks to the mystery woman, only his responses are heard, so it is quiet while she speaks. She speaks, pause.) Oh, yeah, I forgot about that…time difference, what a btch! (Pause) What! (Pause) Look, I'm just making conversation. (Pause) Oh, yeah, and I was calling for a reason. (Pause) Well, first of all, great idea on the gift. It was amazing. She loved it, and if it wasn't for the tiny, insignificant issue we had Friday night….(Pause) oh, yeah, Marissa, (Pause) yep, Ryan's girlfriend, well she was attacked by Ryan's brother. (Pause) No, not me, what are you smoking, his biological brother. (Pause) Yeah, from what I know, he was going to kidnap her after possibly raping her, but this isn't important. (Pause) What! (Pause) Yeah, she's fine. (Pause) No, she knocked the ex-con, well he's going to be a convict again, so what do I call him…. (Pause) oh, yeah, she knocked his ass down and hard! (Pause) Do you remember those self-defense classes I was taking before? (Pause) Yes, those ones…and that wasn't very funny or nice! (Pause) Haha. I see someone is quick even during strange hours. (Pause) Why does every say that. No, it's not inherited. (Pause) I didn't call about Marissa or her problems with Ryan's psycho gene pool; I wanted to talk about me. (Pause and he laughs) That's because it's the best topic there is! (Pause) Well, I was supposed to get hot steamy sex after the necklace, but, yeah, that was an over share wasn't it? (Pause) Sorry, but anyway, it didn't happen. In fact, after the attack the evening got worse. (Pause) Ryan and Marissa decided to share with us after we got back from dealing with the cops for them, that they were staying in LA for the summer and would only see us on the weekends. (Pause) Oh, she got promoted to full time and he got this paid internship at some prestigious design firm. I mean, is that really worth not spending as much time with me as possible? (Pause) So? (Pause) I guess you're right, but I don't want to be away from them that long. Who's going to play Playstation with me? I mean, there's Zoe, but she has her own friends. And who's going to cook for me? (Pause) I've been trying. She yelled at me last week about that and made me wash dishes. (Pause) It was poor Seth! (Pause) So, how are you going? (Pause) Are you still as tired as you were a couple of weeks ago? (Pause) Well, have you seen a doctor? You can't just let this stuff go! You're not a spry young chicken like me anymore. You're getting old…OLD! (Pause) Fine, you're not old. (Pause) You know what it sounds like to me, it sounds like you have the legendary kissing disease! You have mono. I will bet you my….um….how about….no…. (Pause) Oh, yeah, sorry, I already lost Deathcab and Brighteyes for a month, can't do that again, so I'll bet you my signed edition of Kavalier and Clay that you have mono! (Pause) So what if I have three signed copies, it would still pain me to get rid of one. They're like my children. They have been nurtured on my…. (Pause) Yeah, okay, you get the picture. But get that checked out. I want to know what the doctor said the next time I call you….which will be the next time I have a problem. (Pause) No, not in an hour! (Unbeknownst to him, Summer slipped silently into the apartment to surprise him. She was supposed to work all day long, but they were having camera problems so they quit early and she had thought that they could spend the day having fun together, enjoying summer break. She hears the end of his conversation.) Yes, yes, yes, I swear, no one knows about you. (Pause) Yes, not even Ryan. I can't wait. (Pause) Oh, she doesn't expect a thing. You see, I'm what they call stealth, there's nothing I can't get past Summer. (Pause) Okay, yeah, I understand. I love you, too. (He flips his phone shut and un-mutes the TV, settling back for some Spanish soap operas and never hears Summer slip right back out the door she just entered with tears falling steadily out of her eyes. The camera moves away from their living room and goes to Ryan and Marissa having lunch. Ryan is sitting outside on the edge of the fountain, food beside him, waiting for Marissa, watching the crowds of people milling around the business center for any sign of her. When he finally sees her walking towards him, a smile already on her face because she has spotted him, a grin takes control of his face as well. Standing up to greet her, he pulls her into a sweet hug and kisses her cheek as she holds him tightly to her for a second before they move away from each other and sit down. Knowing that they have limited time, they cannot spend their entire lunch break holding each other and kissing playfully, so he takes the food and hands her one of the containers.)
Marissa: Oohhh….fancy.
Ryan: Hey, I have a limited selection here, and I knew that if you stopped and picked up something for us, it would take you at least ten minutes, and those are ten minutes I would rather spend with you. I'll sacrifice satisfying my stomach in order to satisfy my Marissa quota. (He grins at her while looking at her reaction out of the corner of his eye, and when he sees that she is laughing so hard that there are tears in her eyes, he leans over and kisses her on the lips stopping her instantly from laughing at him as she takes his mouth in her own. Finally, after a few moments, he pulls away, leaving them both breathless.)
Marissa: First of all, what was that for?
Ryan: I had to stop you from laughing at me somehow, and besides, I rather enjoyed it. What, didn't you?
Marissa: You know I enjoyed it you smug ass,…
Ryan: Aren't we starting to sound like Summer!
Marissa: Haha, funny, yeah, do you want me to channel her in the bedroom department, too, because I am very capable of going months without sex, too. I went 21 years without it, a few months won't kill me, though it might you.
Ryan: (He leans closer to her pulling her body closer to his and snakes one of his hands up her shirt, gently massaging the small of her back with his finger tips and then letting them work their way up to her back and around to the front of her chest, dipping his fingers into her bra. Because they are sitting so tightly together, it is hard to tell what exactly there are doing, so those around them would not know just how intimate they were getting in such a public place.) Are you sure you want to go a few months? (He leans his lips in to her neck and kisses it softly before pulling back and whispering huskily in her ear.) I think you would miss me making love to you as much as I would.
Marissa: (Her voice is low and hoarse as he elicits severe urges and feelings in her.) Ryan, please, we can't do this here…and definitely not now. You have to stop, because if you don't, I'm going to lose it in front of about a hundred, unsuspecting people. (He pulls his hand down from her breasts and back out the back of her shirt but he keeps his arms wrapped around her.) Thank you. (They stare into each other's eyes for a moment before she starts laughing all of a sudden, but this time it is softer.)
Ryan: Now what?
Marissa: Sorry, just thinking about your cheesy line from before. You do know that if Seth ever heard you say something like that, he would never let you live it down.
Ryan: What? (He tries to play it off as if he doesn't even remember what she is referring to.)
Marissa: Um, your Marissa quota would be a good place to start. I'd keep that one just between us.
Ryan: Oh, so you mean I can't use that on the women I date on the side?
Marissa: Only if I can tell all my little flings about your cheesy lines so we can make fun of you while in bed. (Although they are both teasing each other, Ryan suddenly stops smiling and looks at her earnestly.)
Ryan: You do know that I would never cheat on you, right?
Marissa: Ryan, of course I know that, and, (She starts to laugh.) just to warn you, if you do, let's just say you better enjoy it, because it would be the last time you're with any woman me or otherwise. (He laughs at her.)
Ryan: Well, I think that I'm safe. Oh, and just to let you, if any guy ever lays a finger on you,…
Marissa: Alright, alright caveman, back down, I get the picture, but like you said to me, you don't have anything to worry about. You're more than enough….well, you'd be practically perfect for me if you'd let me go long enough to eat. (He laughs at her, kisses her one last time and then lets her go. They both open up their plastic sandwich containers and start to eat.) So, did you get me anything for dessert…and I don't mean you, so don't even try another cheesy line. I think you've shared enough of those with me already this afternoon.
Ryan: I guess you'll just have to be patient and wait and see.
Marissa: That's not funny or nice while I think of it.
Ryan: So, you made fun of me.
Marissa: (She laughs.) Fine, be that way. Besides, we have bigger fish to fry. (Now it is Ryan's turn to laugh.) What?
Ryan: I may say cheesy lines, but sometimes, out of the blue, you say something so…hillbilly.
Marissa: I do not!
Ryan: Fish to fry, oh, I beg to differ!
Marissa: That is a common expression.
Ryan: Yeah maybe for, what did you call it, BFE.
Marissa: Anyway, what should we do about Seth and Summer. Did you come up with any ideas, because I came up with one, but you're probably not going to like it?
Ryan: Smooth.
Marissa: (She ignores him laughing at her.) I have no idea what you're talking about. So, do you have any ideas?
Ryan: No, I don't, what's yours, and you're not getting out of this teasing session that easily. We'll pick up on it later.
Marissa: (She smiles cheekily at him.) Yeah, we'll see about that. I have many ways to get what I what from you, Ryan Atwood.
Ryan: As do I Marissa…..
Marissa: So, my idea is that we would spend this weekend focusing on Seth and Summer, the guys would have male bonding time and the girls would go away together.
Ryan: Wait, what, go away? You're right; I'm not going to like this. You know we haven't been apart since we first got together.
Marissa: It had to happen sometime, and this is for a good cause. Besides, it will only be for one weekend.
Ryan: First of all, it did not have to happen and still doesn't, and second of all, yeah, one weekend filled with tossing and turning at night when I can't sleep, sexual frustration, and missing you.
Marissa: We'll survive. We need to do this for them.
Ryan: No we don't.
Marissa: Ryan, they're our best friends, your brother, your future sister in law, we can't let this divide between us continue.
Ryan: We didn't cause it.
Marissa: Inadvertently, we did.
Ryan: Just because we got real jobs for this summer and don't want to commute everyday back and forth to LA and want to spend a little time alone together, does not mean that we don't value them or want them in our lives. What Seth said was way off base.
Marissa: You're right, it was, but it was Seth, and we all know that he overreacts, and he doesn't take alone time very well. Without us in Newport with him this summer, he's going to bored stiff all day long.
Ryan: But you said that Summer is only going to filming a day or two a week, so that leaves plenty of time for her to spend with Seth.
Marissa: Yeah, but they're not like us. They don't spend all their time together. They need breaks, and if I know Summer, she'll be shopping, tanning, and going to spas on all of her days off. Seth does not like to do any of those three things. He'll probably end up being Zoe's permanent babysitter all summer, entertaining her and her little friends.
Ryan: More like they will entertain him.
Marissa: Exactly, so even though wanting to stay here in LA is justified, you have to look at it through Seth's eyes. He's afraid of being lonely; he's going to miss us.
Ryan: You're right.
Marissa: I always am. (He laughs, but when he looks at her and she is watching him carefully, just asking him to question her, he stops laughing but still keeps the smirk on his face.)
Ryan: Continue.
Marissa: Better, and thank you. Now, I think that when we do spend time with them, we're going to have to step it up a notch and make the weekends a little more special to show that we still care. So, my idea was that you, Sandy, Neil, Caleb, and Seth could have a male bonding weekend in Newport at the house, grill, drink beer, shoot pool, play video games, watch porn. (Ryan raises his eyebrow at her.)
Ryan: Porn?
Marissa: Well, don't you guys do that together, watch it?
Ryan: No, at least, I don't watch porn with other guys. (She starts laughing.) What?
Marissa: But you do watch porn?
Ryan: (He realizes the trap he got himself into.) Occasionally, (His face turns red out of embarrassment.) but I swear to you that I haven't since I met you.
Marissa: Ryan, it's okay with me if you watch porn. I understand….it's just something guys do.
Ryan: And do girls do it?
Marissa: Do what?
Ryan: Watch porn.
Marissa: This one does not. (She starts laughing.)
Ryan: Ah ha, so you do.
Marissa: No.
Ryan: Then….why were you laughing?
Marissa: It's nothing, forget about it.
Ryan: Oh, I don't think so. You brought this conversation up. Spill.
Marissa: Fine! (She looks away from him embarrassed and plays with the hem of her skirt as she avoids his eyes.) If you really want to know, there's no need for porn. I get turned on by regular movies.
Ryan: Oh really?
Marissa: Yes, now can we please drop the subject.
Ryan: Nope.
Marissa: What?
Ryan: Not until you tell me what movie turns you on.
Marissa: You've got to be kidding me.
Ryan: Oh, I don't think so. I need to know what those movies are.
Marissa: Why? You've never had a problem turning me on before. Are we doubting our sexual prowess?
Ryan: No, but I thought this might come in handy down the road sometime. Besides, you never know when I might need to jump start you.
Marissa: I can't believe we're having this conversation.
Ryan: Must I remind you for a second time that you brought this up.
Marissa: (She mumbles under her breath.) Dirty Dancing.
Ryan: Hm…mumbling, now we're sounding like Seth. (She shoots him a glare, but he just keeps teasing her.) Now, what did you say, because I couldn't hear you?
Marissa: (She is still mumbling and talking softly.) Dirty Dancing.
Ryan: Still can't hear you.
Marissa: (She yells at the top of her voice eliciting many stares from those around them which makes her embarrassed and causes Ryan to laugh.) Dirty Dancing! (Once she realizes what she's done, she lowers her head in shame and tries to avoid the eyes all looking at her. Ryan moves in and attempts to kiss her, but she pushes him away.) Look what you made me do!
Ryan: What?
Marissa: I just made a total fool out of myself in front of some of the most successful businesses men and women in LA!
Ryan: Who cares?
Marissa: I care!
Ryan: Marissa, come on, please look at me, pretty please. (She looks up at him and tries to hold a smile in but can't. When she smiles, he laughs.) There, that's what I want to see, and for that, you do get your dessert.
Marissa: (Now it is her turn to laugh.) Awww…you did get me something. (He turns around and gives her a cupcake which makes her laugh. She kisses his cheek and starts to eat it while he talks.)
Ryan: Alright, so while we're having a guys weekend in Newport, where exactly are you lovely ladies going to be going?
Marissa: San Diego.
Ryan: To the zoo?
Marissa: (She rolls her eyes at him.) Although Zoe might like that idea, I don't think Summer would appreciate it too much. Actually, we're going to a bridal show this weekend. I figured Summer would be in seventh heaven with your Mom, planning away, and Zoe and I could eat the cake samples.
Ryan: You have had quite the sweet tooth lately.
Marissa: Lately? Try my whole life. (Ryan laughs.)
Ryan: Okay, so that solves that family issue, though I'm still not convinced it's a good idea.
Marissa: I'll make up it up to you later, promise. (He smiles at her and pulls her to him while she continues to slowly eat her cupcake.)
Ryan: Now about your sister, I had an idea, but you're not going to like it.
Marissa: What?
Ryan: You, Newport, Jimmy, Julie, and Caitlyn.
Marissa: Oh no, I don't think so.
Ryan: Marissa, you know you have to do this.
Marissa: Not like this, not with them.
Ryan: Then how else are you going to help your sister?
Marissa: I'll talk to her over the phone.
Ryan: Yeah, because that's worked so well so far. She's not answering your calls, and from what we've seen and heard about her so far, I think she needs someone to be watching over her pretty much all the time. Jimmy and Julie might not be the best parents, (Marissa gives him a questioning look.) okay, so they could possibly be the worst ones ever, but they're all she has, and you've got to try and do something for her. (She just keeps looking at her cupcake, or what remains of it.) You know I'm right. (After a moment she looks up and nods at him.)
Marissa: I know, but there's a part of me which thinks she would just be better off on her own.
Ryan: Not when we don't know what Trey did to her. When she told us about the guy she was dating, it sounded serious, I think she was sleeping with him. I hate to say it, but she needs to have herself checked not only to make sure she's not pregnant but for diseases as well. (Marissa shakes her head and closes her eyes in disgust at Trey.) Plus, she probably blames herself for Trey getting close to you.
Marissa: What, why?
Ryan: Think about it. He, not only probably pumped her for information on us, but he was her date to the party. If she wouldn't have brought him, he wouldn't have been able to be there to attack you.
Marissa: But that's ridiculous, even if she wouldn't have brought him, he would have just found another way to get to me, another time.
Ryan: She's not thinking logically right now. Common sense has flown out the window a long time ago, and she's running on raw emotion right now.
Marissa: And she's a minor, so for medical reasons, she's going to need one of them.
Ryan: Right.
Marissa: I can't believe this is happening.
Ryan: Are you going to do it today?
Marissa: Yeah, after lunch, I'll go back to the office, talk to Josh, and just stay late an hour or so every night the rest of the week to make up for it. It won't be a problem.
Ryan: I wish I could come with you.
Marissa: (She turns her body to face his and smiles up at him while resting her hand on his cheek.) I wish you could come, too, but I know, work calls. If I want you home with me tonight, which I do, then you have to get everything done this afternoon, and that's fine. Oh, I could stop by your parents' house, too. I could let them know about this weekend and ask for Kirsten's help in getting the hotel.
Ryan: (He kisses her nose.) They'd love to see you.
Marissa: Do you think I should call ahead and let them know I'm going to be stopping by?
Ryan: Nah, surprise them. (She laughs and then looks down in her hands at the little bit of cupcake that she has left and holds it up to him laughing.)
Marissa: Do you want the last bite?
Ryan: (He opens his mouth and leans towards her.) Sure. (She then pops it into her mouth and giggles as he stares at her in mock indignation. While chewing it, she makes noises to show just how much she enjoyed it, making him pick her up and swing her around.)
Marissa: Ryan, put me down! (He keeps swirling around with her.) Ryan, come on, I'm going to be sick! (Still he doesn't do anything.) Strike? (She is down on the ground within seconds. They stare into each others eyes for a few seconds before she puts her hand out.) Can I have some change? I want to make a wish. (She nods her head to the fountain. He laughs at her childish antics but pulls out some change from his pocket anyway and watches her mesmerized.) Thanks. (She goes to the edge of the fountain and stands up where they had been sitting and silently thinks of a wish before she throws in each coin. Once she finishes, she climbs down, picks up her stuff and goes to stand by Ryan. He takes her hand in his and kisses it before they walk off and throw their garbage away from their lunch.)
Ryan: Walk me back to my office?
Marissa: Sure, but I can't stay. (She looks at him slyly and they both smile when they realize they are thinking of the same thing, the last time she was in his office. They keep walking for a few moments in silence until he breaks the quiet and speaks again.)
Ryan: So, what did you wish for?
Marissa: If I told you, now they wouldn't come true, would they, and trust me, I think you'd like each and everyone.
Ryan: Well then, in that case, you should just keep them to yourself. (The camera pans away from them as they continue to walk towards his office, as they enjoy each others company and remain totally oblivious to the world around them. It leaves them and goes to the Cooper residence. Jane is sitting on the stairs in the foyer and staring at the door, waiting for Jimmy to come home. She still has not seen him since Friday evening and has been unable to tell him about the whole incident involving Caitlyn and Trey. After a few moments, the front door opens quietly and Jimmy walks in calm and collected, believing that no one is home.)
Jane: (Her voice is cold and unwavering.) Where have you been? (She startles him and he jumps slightly and then scowls at her.)
Jimmy: I think I'm a little too old to report back to my Mommy every moment of the day, thank you very much.
Jane: You're right, you are, but you're also too old for me to be taking care of your child, doing your laundry, and giving you a place to live, but yet, I'm still doing all that.
Jimmy: What's this about? Where's you car?
Jane: So I was right. You don't come home if you think I'm here.
Jimmy: Well I was trying to avoid another lecture, but it looks as though you like giving them so much, you'll resort to trickery to get your incessant complaints listened to.
Jane: My car is parked down the street at a friend's house, and did you ever think that I need to talk to you for a reason. I've been trying to reach you since late Friday night. Why didn't you answer your cell phone?
Jimmy: (He pulls it out of his pocket and laughs slightly.) Go figure, it's dead. Whoops.
Jane: It was important.
Jimmy: It always is with you.
Jane: (She glances up the stairs with a worried expression on her face before turning back to Jimmy.) Look, can we please talk in the other room. I don't want Caitlyn to hear us talking.
Jimmy: Wait, Caitlyn's home? Isn't it Monday? Shouldn't she be in school?
Jane: Yes, she would be, but she had a rough weekend.
Jimmy: What, something happened?
Jane: Oh, you could say that, hence me trying to get in touch with you for the past two and half days. (Jimmy puts his hand out to symbolize that she should lead the way into the room. She does. The camera moves away from them and music begins to play in the background, Wolfmother's "White Unicorn". As the song starts, Caitlyn creeps her way down the stairs and stops at the bottom of them to see if she can hear where the talking is going on. She does, so she moves towards the living room where Jimmy and Jane are talking.) Now, before you say anything, both girls are physically fine, but on Friday night at the launch party for Marissa's show that Caitlyn went to, Marissa was attacked again by Ryan's brother, who was, from what I can gather which isn't much because Caitlyn won't talk to anyone, also Caitlyn's boyfriend. Anyway, Marissa ended up winning the fight. Rumor has it your daughter has a mean fighting streak now that she took a self defense course, but anyway, she definitely held her own again this Trey fellow. (At the mention of his name, Caitlyn shudders but keeps listening.) He was arrested, but they haven't gotten his accomplice yet, his and Ryan's father, Dan. Caitlyn ended up seeing the end of the fight where they found Marissa standing over an unconscious Trey.
Jimmy: How long had they been dating?
Jane: I don't know, but they went away together a couple of weekends ago, so I think they were sleeping together. (Caitlyn has to stifle a sob and she leaves the doorway and sneaks off to the kitchen. Pausing with her hand on the door of the fridge to gather herself she contemplates what she is going to do and then she resolutely sets her face, opens the fridge, and pulls out a full bottle of wine. After uncorking it, she walks back upstairs with even bothering to take a glass. When she is back in her room, she locks the door and crawls into her bed, turning the music up even louder, drinking the wine quickly, and crying the entire time. As the song continues, the camera pans between Caitlyn drinking alone in her room, as she falls apart at the seams, and Jane and Jimmy as they talk intently in the living room. Finally, the camera ends up in Caitlyn's room as the song is drawing to a close. After drinking the wine as quickly as possible, she passes out drunk from the liquor and sheer exhaustion and the bottle rolls out of her hands and unto the ground where it rolls under her bed and hits a pregnancy test box. The scene goes black and comes to and end.)
