Dr. Tom: Ultimately, Erica, you just have to decide. You have to
choose how are you going to be. I mean, you could spend the rest of your life caught up,
in that fear. Okay. Or, you could face it. Take the leap. See what comes. Your ice
cream’s melting.
Erica: Our friendship, it’s still there. And I know that
I’ll find my way back to it, but I need some time.
Dr. Tom: What have you done?
Erica: My dream is to write fiction, and that will happen
someday. I am not letting that go.
Dr. Tom: I think it might be time to rip away the safety net.
Erica, today you’re gonna solve your problems like the other six billion souls on this
planet: all on your own.
It’s not complicated. You can’t stay in this hallway forever—you have to choose.

’cause Kai said it was gonna happen—which means it’s already happened for him,
which means . . .
Look at me. You went back there and you faced what happened, and now you have to face how
it made you feel. And that’s how you break the pattern.
