Opening Shot

Monologue

I don't know why the doctor wanted me to see you. It was just a stupid accident. I wasn't thinking, that's all. It's not like I intended to do anything to hurt myself. I just wanted to listen to some music. And honestly, the sound system in the car is terrific. I'm just so glad I spent the extra cash on it. So that's why I closed all the doors to their bedrooms and the house. I didn't want to wake them. I would never try to kill myself. I just forgot to open the garage door, that's all. Now, of course, it's a big deal. I see that now. And like I've already said to you and the doctor and the nurse and the EMT, I just lost custody of my kids, and I wasn't thinking about the damn garage door. Look, I'm overwhelmed, okay? So why doesn't anyone believe me?

I see you’re upset.

Well, you've got a great grasp of the obvious. Of course I'm upset. Wouldn't you be if nobody believed what you were saying? Of?

Tell Me More

What more do you want to know? I had just gotten off the phone with my attorney, and he said the judge ruled in favor of my ex and he was going to get full custody. I mean, really full custody. I only get to see them two weekends a month. Okay? Sometimes I forget to take meds and I don't get up in time to take the kids to school. And yet that I'm an unfint mother? Let me tell you something. That is ridiculous. Like, I love my kids. I wouldn't do anything to put them in harm's way.

Why do you feel that way?

Because my kids are my life. That's why I feel this way. Without them, I have nothing. It's overwhelming to think I'm not going to get to see them every day. And then that started me thinking, maybe they're better off with him.

Oh, I wouldn’t be so sad about that.

Oh, I'm not sad. I am devastated. You obviously don't have kids, and don't tell me oh, now I have all the time to do the things that I want to do. How dare you tell me how I should feel? You have no idea how I feel.
