Scenes with Mack

3 scenes
Mack

He's kinda lonely, but he seems peaceful about it.

That would be nice.

Dee

Ya know, it would be great if you could sort of be down about things, but still be alright with it. Like, finally accept that fact that you're gonna feel bad most of the time and not fight it.

Mack

Of course, it would also be nice not to feel bad most of the time.

Dee

Yeah, but that's how you get yourself in trouble. By thinking how nice it'd be to be happy more.

Dee

You've denied me in every way you can. Everything I've wanted, you've denied me.

Mack

I've been honest all along. Even that night.

Dee

Who gives a shit? Don't you see what you do? Even now, you wanna deny me what's rightfully mine.

Mack

Which is?

Dee

To resent the hell outta you. To feel totally rejected and hated. To hate you for doing it to me. There are good men out there who are gonna treat me like I'm the very thing they want. And then you do that thing with Jane.

Mack

What?

Dee

You know, with that guy, that tow-truck guy.

Mack

What about it? What's that got to do with anything?

Dee

You don't even know, do you? You don't even know why that hurts me so much. Jane's in love. She thinks this could be the one.

Mack

Is that bad? I thought she was your friend.

Dee

She is my friend. I'm very happy for her, but it makes me feel like shit... that you're out there finding her the love of her life and I'm here like what? I'm here like shit. How do you think that's gonna make me feel?

Mack

Dee, I understand you're angry with me, but why would...?

Dee

Forget it. It doesn't have to make sense.

[as Mack and Simon and their wives and families look at the Grand Canyon]

So what do you think?

Mack

I think it's not all bad.
