Abby and Luka in “300 Patients”

Abby

I started drinking again.

Luka

When?

Abby

The night Joe got hurt. And I.... [long pause] can't stop.

Luka

I thought when I came back, we just had to get used to being married again. But then things didn't get better and I thought... [long pause] So what do we do?

Abby

I need to fix it. I need to go somewhere, a facility, with professionals, and get better. And I need to believe it this time, and I need you to believe it. [long pause] And I need you to help me. [another long pause] So... so, take Joe... go to Croatia, for your father, while I do that.

Luka

You want us to go without you?

Abby

Yeah, I just...

Luka

But you're his mother!

Abby

I know that! I know that! [pause] But I haven't been a very good one. And I honestly don't think I can be until I deal with this.

Luka

Can't we do this together?

Abby

This is how we do it together! You have to help me do it... alone.
