I think it might be time for
you to see another therapist.
You're breaking up with me?
We need her.
Why'd she do that?
- I mean, you are a handful, Tara.
- What does that mean?
There's four of you.
That's not
a relationship.
It's an ***.
I'm sorry, ma'am,
but it's your sister.
Of course it is.
Tara.
Oh, my god.
Sounds like Gimme came out.
How many times do I have to tell you?
I don't know *** about that Gimme ***.
What the hell is that?
I saw it on your fridge,
- and I couldn't resist.
- You stole a picture from me?
You know, you might have
grounds for *** harassment.
You should call HR.
To mother issues.
- It wasn't bad, was it?
- Wasn't bad at all.
You're Marshall's BF.
I'm not anybody's BF.
Marsh, man, I am I am so sorry.
Marshall.
That wasn't me.
I would never
Hey.
Hello?
The shed's on fire!
Holy ***!
Kate, get that other hose!

We had a priest who used to
give us gum balls
in the confessional at St.
Anne's.
We'd be in there
"Bless me, father,
I cheated on my french test.
",
or, "Bless me, father,
I did whippits with a hot townie.
"
I mean, you couldn't phone it in,
but if you were really penitent
and Father Roger could feel
the sorrow in your heart,
he'd hit you with some hail marys
and put a little gum ball in the slot.
Tell me that you know
that was wrong, right?
A lot of ways to express yourself.
Dad, please don't send
me to military school.
It's worse than that, pal.
You're going to regular-*** school.
Go get some clothes on.
- But what if I see him?
- Like I give a ***.
Go get dressed for school.
That's absurd.
What's absurd?
Nothing.
Marshall.
It's okay that he's mad at me.
To tell you the truth,
I'm pretty mad at me right now, too.
She should be put away.
Shut your gob.
Seriously, what are we doing here?
We're just gonna treat it
like a normal Tuesday
and act like nothing even happened?
Nobody's acting, Marsh,
especially not your mom.
Right, because she's insane.
I mean,
we're living so far off the map,
it's like early John Waters
or something,
before Divine was even adorable.
He's kind of right, dad.
Do we need a plan or something?
I mean, maybe she should at
least be back on her meds.
I know it's messed
up right now, okay?
But we're not gonna bail on her
like Dr.
Ocean
and all those other useless ***
doctors we dealt with.
She made a commitment to get off
her meds till she gets better, so
It doesn't seem to be
getting any better, dad.
In the words of police chief Martin
Brody, we need a bigger boat.
Sometimes the strongest thing
you can do is ask for help.
We need a bigger *** boat.
Your hospitalization in 1989.
Yeah, I drove into the back of
an ice cream truck.
Well, Buck did.
But that was before any
authenticated diagnosis, correct?
None of the doctors
could figure it out.
Until they did,
we were just
drowning.
Well, disassociation is
Look, it's so tough.
I want to commend you
for making your way here.
Yeah, I kind of had to.
We're just lucky my sister
was able to watch the kids.
She's not gonna bring that new guy over
and sleep with him in our bed, is she?
Sorry.
So what can Tara expect from this?
Well, it's pretty straightforward.
Look, you you can't get better
until you know what happened to you.
My program provides
a two-week protected environment
where patients can really dig in.
Once we start breaking down
the walls between you and your alters,
you'll be able to get out of survival
mode and really start to live.
You'll have individual therapy with me,
plus group therapy,
long-term-recovery planning, all sorts
of good stuff you'll find helpful.
I know I will.
Sounds good, huh?
And for you, too, Max.
Pardon?
I've found a 12-step model
of family involvement
is effective for trauma
recovery as well.
That was the moment I decided that
it's God's will that Marty's a multi,
so I better make me some lemonade.
And if I get him a CD
for his birthday,
I'm pretty sure at least
one of the alters will like it.
When I started
disassociating after Iraq,
I seriously thought
that everybody woke up
in strange hotel rooms
with people they never met.
Don't they?
Since I was a child,
I always knew there was something
bizarre going on with my memory.
At least you can
remember being a child.
I'm so jealous of people
who can really answer the question
"How was your day?"
Yeah, I used to turn it
back on him really fast.
I'd be like,
"Good, honey, how was yours?"
I got really good at hiding it.
My trauma happened when I was 16,
so I didn't start switching
till after that, but
whenever I would come back
from a transition,
I knew exactly how to cover
and get by.
Yeah, we'll do almost
anything to appear normal.
I don't remember what happened
at boarding school, but
I do have vivid memories
of a few weeks afterwards.
It was a month until summer break,
and I couldn't wait to get out.
I'm such a total summer person.
And I remember I wore my bathing
suit under my clothes every day.
And while everybody was going to
class and going on with their lives,
I just sat in my dorm window
waiting for summer to come.
Did it?
The next thing I remember
is snow
everywhere.
I was at my parents', and
six months had gone
by in an instant.
And it was just
white.
What'd you think of the snow?
It was
I mean, not what I expected.
But it was beautiful.
I don't even know what to say.
I am so sorry.
It's not your fault.
I mean,
my mom's a total freak show.
She's actually at a hospital
for the criminally insane now.
She is?
I didn't even know they had hospitals
for the criminally insane anymore.
There's, like, one.
It's outside of Chicago.
Anyway, my aunt's staying with us,
which I'm cool with, so
So do you want
I feel really bad
about what happened.
I even talked to my dad about it.
Listen, I think you're the most
awesome kid in this school.
Remember me when you
win your Oscar, okay?
So you really think you
can get him to come out?
Some patients have an easier time
using hypnosis
or sodium pentothal, but you
You've been experiencing
co-consciousness, which indicates
permeability within your system.
I've never experienced
co-consciousness with Gimme.
Well, what about the time when T.
hit on your son's friend?
I could see everything
she was doing.
I don't know what's worse
Not knowing the *** you do or seeing
it and not being able to stop it.
Look, you can do this, Tara.
Once we can access the trauma
by probing your alters,
and the odds are high
that at least one of them knows,
then even if it's hard to watch,
you'll finally know.
Okay, let'*** it.
Okay.
So Mr.
Stuart called you hot,
said your hair was too provocative
for daytime.
Right.
Did Mr.
Stuart ever make
any requests for dates?
All the time.
He always wanted me to go to Brookstone
to check out the massage chairs.
That's not a date.
- What?
- It wouldn't hold up.
Look, Miss Gregson,
if you're claiming *** misconduct,
it has to be crystal clear
the advances were unwelcome.
Of course they were.
The food-service industry is
a hotbed of *** impropriety.
It's basically institutionalized.
That's why people
work at restaurants.
It's not uncommon
for young waitresses
to develop feelings
for their manager.
It's okay if you blew him.
Did you blow him?
No.
I didn't.
Miss Miss Jackson,
I got this job to get some extra money,
because my mother is very, very sick.
I have much better
things to do than
than spend my time
being in a relationship with some
loser guy from loser Barnabeez.
No offense.
I've heard worse.
***.
***!
It's really okay.
It's not okay.
What is wrong with me?
I was able to be co-conscious
before I came here.
You've been through a lot.
It's been four days.
Why isn't the hypnosis working?
There are some patients
that don't respond.
How am I supposed to get
to the truth and get better
if the alters won't come out
and talk to you?
This is a process.
They're not ready.
Tara, and to be fair to them,
look, they just
They just met me.
Well, I like you.
I trust you.
God, it's so
frustrating.
These alters,
they use Tara's body as they please,
and then when Tara's out,
she spends all her time
in a state of
- guilty overdrive.
- I'm sorry.
But you keep saying,
"Tara this", and, "Tara that".
Aren't we supposed to keep
our sharing focused on ourselves?
- That's right.
- Yeah.
Like what's really going
on deep down inside of you.
I don't know how that could help.
So how are you doing
with your group stuff?
It's fantastic.
I'm learning a lot about myself.
***.
Oh, it's just a lot
of useless yammering.
I thought I was gonna enjoy meeting
people in my situation, but
Yeah, well,
if it makes you feel any better,
I'm not having much luck bringing
any of my alters out.
I thought this guy was the ***.
And at home,
we can't get them to stay in.
Hey, it's the dude from
the picture you keep by your bed.
Is that Jenny? Hey.
Jenny's integrated.
Why are you whispering?
You know how some people
aren't happy for you
when you've lost a bunch of weight?
That That's amazing.
How'd you do that?
Well
A lot of time and hard work,
like what Tara's doing.
But it's doable, right?
I mean, we can fix this.
It's not like taking me
to the dry-cleaner's, Max.
I know.
I know it's a process.
And Dr.
Holden
said it's not gonna happen overnight.
I get it.
Just as long as it happens
before our insurance runs out.
- Morning, fake mom.
- "Mornseys".
Is fake dad still here?
No.
Guess what I did.
I didn't sleep with him.
I didn't let him sleep over,
and
perhaps extended this lovely thing
yet another day
by continuing to treat myself
like a special prize he has to win.
Oh, really?
So was it you or that special prize
that was having a screaming ***
at 1:30 in the morning?
You're imagining things.
He was long gone by then.
Oh, really?
- I didn't let him sleep over.
- Oh, my god!
I'm a ***.
- Hello?
- Hey, it's Max.
Hey, Max.
More Xanax, Moosh?
What is this,
Anna Nicole Smith time?
Sorry, but even in Fagland,
this is really done.
It just makes everything better.
Yeah, but if you take a pill
to make everything better,
you never know
when things are *** up.
If you don't know when things are
*** up, you can't fix it yourself.
Believe me, I know what's *** up.
Do you even get
what mom's alters do?
- Ruin my *** life?
- No.
They do stuff for mom.
She was protecting you.
Jason is nothing but
a bi-curious church monkey
who's using you to find some edge.
That's not true.
So maybe he will *** some guys,
and maybe you can
get him to *** you.
But he's gonna marry a girl,
and he's never gonna love you
the same way that you love him.
So T.
came out
to try and put a stop to it.
You slept in the truck?
Yeah, too many significant others
at the Ramada bar.
They just want to talk
and share and stuff.
Why aren't you sharing and stuff?
Why would I want to do that?
Who wants to hear my ***?
You know what I think?
I think you don't want
to hear your ***,
because you got a lot of it,
and you're afraid you might lose it,
and your voice will get all high,
and you'll sound like a woman.
Yeah, right.
*** off.
How are the kids?
They're doing so great,
I think you guys should stay
another week or something.
Yeah, right.
- Good luck.
- Thanks.
We're beginning to inject the medicine
into your IV.
You'll
notice you're beginning
to feel a little more relaxed.
So I can tell the medicine
is reaching you,
I'd like you to count backwards
from 100 for me.
Now?
Yeah, go ahead.
Very good.
I'm wondering if anybody inside Tara
has a memory
of a night when something happened
with Tara and a boy named Trip.
Can anyone help us with a memory?
What's in it for me?
Don't *** with Buck!
So, listen, Buck, I understand you don't
want to have therapy in my office.
Oh, yeah, I'm done with that.
Great, well, then I'll just
I'll just hang with you, then, okay?
You can hang all you want,
but nobody wants to talk to you.
That's why I'm here.
You see that?
Lick it and stick it.
Yeah, lucky shot.
Whatever, get out of the way.
Lucky, huh?
Cocky sumbitch.
I could hit that *** facedown
munching your mama's ***.
I apologize about my foul tongue.
I'm gonna make you my special lady.
If everybody could just sign this card
for Tonya, that would be great.
And when she comes back,
no comments about missing eyebrows.
And yes, in case
anyone is wondering,
we will continue to serve our signature
volcano choc-splosion drink,
just without the "splosion" feature.
- You guys got me?
- Yeah.
One more thing.
If anyone has anything
to say to me
I ask that they say it to my face.
- Have a great shift.
- Thank you.
I'm gonna sign it now.
That includes you.
- I don't have anything to say.
had something to say to corporate.
I have friends all over Barnabeez.
That means when there's something
scooting up the flagpole, I get a call.
I think you get a call
because you can't keep your ***
out of the face of every girl
who works for you.
*** is not an acceptable word
for the workplace.
You got this job because you wanted
to get out of your crazy-*** house.
.
- No, I was not.
And I was there for you.
And I still am.
Can you just stop acting like
whatever happened was important.
It was.
- Kitty, we fell in love
- Oh God, look at you!
You can't even stop
scamming right now.
Hey, Chucky!
Is that my yoo-hoo?
So help me, it better be
room temperature.
*** *** is freezing!
That's gonna *** with my system.
Idiot.
How's she doing?
This kind of regression tells me
I'm on the right track.
When Tara feels strong enough
to face the truth, she'll come back.
We just have to be patient.
Patient my ***.
You're *** $6,000 a week.
I can see this *** for free
in my living room.
Listen, I know it's not easy,
but you came here for a reason.
Please try to trust
the program, Max.
You need something to do with yourself,
I suggest going back to your group.
Cheating me, taking away
More wine, Char?
Yes, please.
I'll take a refill.
Is this
Is this what normal people are like?
Like, is this what dinner's
supposed to feel like?
Hey, sweetie.
Nick made white trash dessert.
There's pudding and marshmallows
and bananas and
I don't know.
I brought jiffy pop.
Who wants to watch Lost?
Okay, cool, I'll get started
without you guys.
You know, they say God never
gives you more than you can handle,
and that's just not true.
Marty's never getting better,
and I can't
effing handle it.
Do you think that Nick can tell
that I had a thing with Neil?
Because I really don't want him
to realize that he's dating down.
He's not dating down.
Okay, well
I don't want him to realize
that I date down,
because that would lower my stock.
Did he hear me?
No, he didn't hear me.
- I think you stopped before he came in.
- I did, right?
When I slide my Harley V-Twin
under a peterbilt
and pop out the other side
without a scratch.
There's no Highway 84.
She's quoting convoy and talking about
stunts she saw in a Burt Reynolds movie.
What the *** are we doing here?
Ask Buck.
I don't want to ask Buck.
I'm done talking to Buck.
Hey, doc, help me out here.
I'm trying like hell to communicate.
But this guy
He's making it real *** hard.
You want to know
what's *** hard, Tara?
Waking up in the middle of the night
not knowing where you are.
Yeah, that's hard.
Trying to piece together
some kind of normal life,
but down inside you're losing all hope
that the suffering is ever gonna end.
This is not what I had
in mind for my life.
You calling me out, tough guy?
Nope, nope, I'm not doing anything.
I'm out of here.
This is waste of time.
Don't you walk away from me.
Yeah, that's right.
Walk away, you ***!
Hey, Buck, do me a favor.
If you see Tara, you tell her
I'm through.
I'm not doing this anymore.
Oh, I'll give her the message
***!
He seemed nice.
I think he got a little freaked out
when I told him you like
doing it in the shower.
- No
- Charmaine, come on.
Really?
I would never tell him
about the ***, all right?
You heard me.
Oh, my god.
- Neil.
- You know
Look, I'm sorry.
You have better *** now,
all right?
You can't be
wasting your time.
And, BTW
I loved that body the way it was.
And BTW, BTW,
the thing between us
it's not just ***,
and you know it.
Good night.
Tara?
- Hi.
- You're back.
I heard you were
cleared for takeoff.
Oh, god.
See if it sticks.
- What?
- I've been integrated before,
and it turns out that some of the alters
were just hiding, but
I think this time I'm good, though.
Of course you are.
Who are these cuties?
Bella and Wendy.
They must be 10 and 12 now.
I haven't seen them in a while.
My ex has full custody.
Hey, Chucky.
Chucky, there's a 15-minute limit.
- Chucky!
- Okay, okay.
I need the phone!
Hang up now, fool!
I'm sorry.
I want to find Trip Johannsen.
If my alters won't tell me
what happened,
then I want to find him myself.
Can you help me?
You gonna call me cowboy,
get all mad at me?
Not tonight.
I miss you.
I miss you, too.
