00:06 What is the appropriate amount of grief?
00:11 My husband is dead!
00:13 Get the--
00:13 And you don't even drink?
00:14 I want to start.
00:17 So how you doing, Mom?
00:18 [SCREAMING]
00:21 I'm fine.
00:22 Just tried to kill myself.
00:25 A new role in life.
00:26 I fall backwards.
00:27 It's the first life I ever saved.
00:30 No, there was that kangaroo.
00:32 You start your gratitude journal,
00:33 you'll be sure you put friendship at the top.
00:36 Right next to vodka.
00:38 Did you say right next to God?
00:40 Sure.
00:42 When's dinner?
00:42 I'm starving.
00:45 Want to smoke some weed?
00:46 Sure.
00:47 Pound Street's our street!
00:48 Have you lost your ever-loving mind?
00:50 I don't. She has.
00:51 She has lost her mind.
00:53 Did you miss me?
00:54 Isn't that what we all want, is to love someone so much
00:57 that we go mad without them?
01:00 Yeah.
01:02 Do you think that he would love the person you are now?
01:06 Or not?
01:07 Is this an intervention?
01:08 Because I'm 100% compos mentis!
01:11 This is Leah's mother, Kate.
01:12 Any hobbies?
01:14 I hang out with some kids who like to dress up
01:17 in Halloween costumes.
01:20 She's really turned a corner.
01:21 Still up, Mom?
01:22 Yes.
01:25 I guess I'll go to bed.
01:27 You might want to change your sheets.
01:29 Is there a point when it's assumed
01:31 you will no longer change?
01:32 My mom would never wear something like this
01:34 in public.
01:35 Mine too.
01:36 I mean, she's been dead for ages, but still.
