Abby and Carter in “Tell Me Where It Hurts”

Abby

My family's so screwed up. If I were you, I'd run for my life and never look back.

Carter

You don't hold the monopoly on screwed up families. You met my mother.

Abby

She's not certifiable.

Carter

I have an idea. I think we should get them all together for the holidays... Gamma, my parents, your mom. [Abby laughs]

Abby

...I'm really scared for him, Carter

Carter

I know.

Abby

And it's so unfair, 'cause he was such a good kid. And we went through so much growing up, and I thought, 'God, I'm through!' I thought... he was safe.

Carter

He's gonna get all the help that he needs now. We're going to make sure that he does. And nothing that you did, or didn't do, could've prevented this.

Abby

It's just that, Eric... He was the only constant thing in my life... He was the only thing I could ever really count on.

Carter

That's not true anymore.

Abby

Promise? 'Cause, I really need something to hang onto right now.

Carter

I'm not going anywhere.
