Maggie and Nate in “Unfinished Business”

Maggie

Blackpoole's a bastard, Nate. He was a bastard when you worked for him. What's changed? Just help me understand.

I have to tell you something, Mag. [sits down on a bench] Please.

Maggie

What?

Mag, when Sam was in stage 4, I found a treatment that would've helped him. And I went to Ian to pay for it, and he wouldn't.

Maggie

He wouldn't?

He wouldn't. I told him we had mortgaged the house, sold the car, that we were broke, and he still wouldn't pay the claim. 20 years at that company, and they wouldn't help save our son.

Maggie

Why didn't you tell me this? I work with these people, Nate. I am friendly with them. You just let me walk around like an idiot. He’s my son too! [wipes tears]

I know, I know.

Maggie

Why have you just been carrying this around all this time?

I didn't want you to hate me, Maggie.

Maggie

Why would I hate you?

I do. If I had ever seen you look at me the way I looked at myself in the mirror, I would've blown my damn brains out.
