Ardsley-on-Hudson is boring and routine.
It's a fucking baby factory.
I want to start my life over again.
So far, I've been a rebellious teenager...
lover... Waitress... Gallery director...
Nanny... and... A whore.
And not necessarily in that order.
I can't just be a wife anymore.
That's why I... Stay awake at night staring at the ceiling.
In fact, the only time I feel like myself is when I'm running.
You always felt that way?
Maybe since I was... About 17.
With Mac.
Mac? Who's Mac?
My brother's best friend.
My brother who died.
I tend to smile when I'm nervous.
Sometimes I laugh.
For a year, Mac and I lived in this hunting cabin.
We started fucking.
We were the saddest people we knew.
But in a way, that cabin made us happy.
No one could find us.
Everyone thought we were dead.
And if you were to run away today, right now, where would you go?
I read once that...
when a train hits, it can rip the clothes right off of you.
I'm pretty sure Scott thinks
the nanny job is gonna make me less restless.
Make me want to get pregnant.
And that's not the case?
When I finish work every night, I run home and I get in the shower
and I wash the smell of that baby off of me as fast as I can.
