...with chocolate candy
when you first met?
1:23:03
A psychologist might have told you
then she was a potential alcoholic.
1:23:07
You wouldn't have believed him.
And he might have been wrong.
1:23:10
How many strawberries does it take
to start an allergy?
1:23:13
And which one gives you hives?
1:23:15
Alcoholism is an illness. It's pretty hard
to diagnose an illness until you've got it.
1:23:20
- Come on, Joe. She'll turn up, honest.
- Why did she do it, why did she leave?
1:23:24
- That's...
- She wanted a drink.
1:23:27
She had to drink, she could drink
right here, and she knows it.
1:23:31
You're sober.
It's no fun to drink around you.
1:23:34
It's worse¡Your sobriety would be
an accusation to her.
1:23:37
She'd be miserable.
She's lost her playmate.
1:23:40
And Joe...
1:23:43
Listen, don't be too surprised
if she finds another one.
1:23:55
She loves me. You just don't understand,
there's no trouble between us.
1:23:59
There wasn't any trouble.
Joe, don't forget.
1:24:01
For a long time, booze has been
an integral part of your relationship.
1:24:05
If she drinks and you don't,
you gotta find a new meeting ground...
1:24:09
...a different basis for a relationship.
It takes adjusting.
1:24:12
I find it hard to believe this.
There was one thing about us...
1:24:15
...we always knew we were in love.
There was no doubt about it. We knew.
1:24:19
Do you understand what I'm saying?
We had something.
1:24:22
Things like that don't just evaporate.
1:24:24
Joe, the night you tore up your
father-in-law's flowers...
1:24:27
...looking for the bottle?
1:24:29
- What'd you do with it?
- I drank it.
1:24:31
You didn't take it back
and drink it with Kirsten?
1:24:36
No.
1:24:38
There comes a time for every alcoholic
when the bottle is God.
1:24:41
Nothing matters but the next drink.
You know that.
1:24:44
I know I know it, I just-
1:24:46
I can't believe that this
is happening to me, that's all¡
1:24:50
Two people. Seven years.
1:24:52
Booze, no booze, drunk, sober.
1:24:55
Isn't love... love?
1:24:58
I don't know.
