• Callie Martel : Bailey, why are you treating me like this? I'm trying to help you.

  Bailey Salinger : That's the thing. I don't think you can help me.

  Callie Martel : Why not? I got rid of the bar, I threw away all the liquor bottles and beer, I even stopped drinking myself to know what you're feeling.

  Bailey Salinger : That's not it. It's this place... this whole place. This apartment is where it all began. My drinking... our sordid relationship... everywhere I look, makes me want to drink. I'm fine all day when I'm in class and when I'm around by family, but when I come back here it's like suddenly my tongue starts panting, like a dog wanting water. The first thing I do after I put my key in the door and let myself in is go straight to the fridge to get a beer or two to gulp it down and when I open the refrigerator... only then I remember that there's nothing there. The beer is gone. It makes me want to go out to a bar or liquor store to get a drink. Everywhere I look... everything around me... everything I see... everything in this apartment makes me want to drink.

  Callie Martel : Including me?

  Bailey Salinger : [pause]  Yeah... I think so. I'm sorry, Callie. At the end of the week, when I've payed you for this month's and last month's overdue rent, I'm leaving. I'm moving out and I'm moving back in with Charlie and the others.
