“Driven to Extremes” · Season 5, Episode 18

In this episode: Griffin Holbrook (3), Julia Salinger (2), Bailey Salinger (1), Claudia Salinger (1)

The only person that can help Julia now is Julia. That's it. That's the truth. She's gotta make up her own mind that this is gonna stop, or else...

Or else what? He just keeps hitting her? Is that what you're saying?

You know what, Griffin? This whole pathetic little kidnapping fantasy of yours is over, so you don't get to tell me what to do anymore.

Since when have I ever told YOU what to do? You've been marching me around since the day we first met.

That is not true!

You wanted us to move into the shed, you wanted me to sell my shop, you wanted to go back to school. And everytime I said 'Whatever you want, Jule,' like an idiot, thinking maybe... But, it looks like all you ever really wanted was someone to beat the selfishness right out of you.

I thought it was him and me against everything else, everything that ever hurt me. My last year at home, my breakup with Griffin, even my mom and dad. I thought if I chose him and I pushed away everyone else and I lost myself in us that I'd be safe from all the bad stuff. And that I'd be making this really great and safe thing with him. But all I really did was lose myself.

You're right. I don't have a life. I HAD a life. With you. But I gave that up so you could have what you wanted. So how do you think that makes me feel, Jule, to find out that you wanted this... to know that you'd rather be with some guy that hits you than be with me?

You're asking a judge to take your little brother out of a sober hard-working home and place him with an alcoholic single with a record.

Single? No, I have a girlfriend you lives with me.

Oh, make that an alcoholic shacking up with a young girl. The court will think you're a terrific role model for a five year old.
