00:01:03Just great, just great.
00:01:04Now get him in the freezer right away.
00:01:06Go, go.
00:01:07Come on.
00:01:20Hi.
00:01:21Are you a waiter or a bartender?
00:01:24You want the owner, Vivian.
00:01:26No, I want you.
00:01:27Hello, can I help you?
00:01:29It's personal.
00:01:33What are you talking about?
00:01:35Your husband's in big trouble.
00:01:37The people he owes want their money by five o'clock.
00:01:40Otherwise, there's gonna be a knock at your door.
00:01:48I'll be back before we start serving.
00:01:50Wait.
00:01:57Where is he?
00:01:58He's at lunch with an investor.
00:02:00Come on, Samantha.
00:02:01This is serious.
00:02:02Get him on the phone.
00:02:03I would, but...
00:02:04He disconnected his cell phone.
00:02:08If you find him, can you tell him that that...
00:02:10Boob is here again this morning?
00:02:13And coming in second, Gypsy Girl.
00:02:15Charge of light, and Donna Doll.
00:02:17Here comes Dusty Dog.
00:02:19Hoping God's giving her the win.
00:02:20And they're coming around the last turn.
00:02:22Donna Doll will come on the rail.
00:02:23Come on, Gypsy Girl.
00:02:24Come on, Gypsy Girl.
00:02:25Charge of light, and Donna Doll.
00:02:27Come on, baby.
00:02:28That's me.
00:02:29That's me.
00:02:30That's my girl.
00:02:31Come on, baby.
00:02:32Whoa-ho!
00:02:33That's me!
00:02:34I told you, 20 to 1.
00:02:36Ready to run.
00:02:37Honey!
00:02:38This time you've gone too far.
00:02:39Don't you ever, ever do that again.
00:02:41Help me here.
00:02:42What exactly did I do?
00:02:43It's not bad enough to embarrass me at work.
00:02:45Now you've got people threatening us.
00:02:47They're coming to the house, Eric.
00:02:49No, they're not.
00:02:50That was a big misunderstanding.
00:02:52It's all been cleared up.
00:02:53Look, I'll send Viv a dozen roses.
00:02:55And it was a lousy thing to do to you, too.
00:02:57I'm sorry.
00:02:58I'm always sorry.
00:03:00How much do you owe this time?
00:03:01Not a dime.
00:03:03Lisa, I said I was sorry.
00:03:06Wives get angry at husbands.
00:03:08Husbands get angry at wives.
00:03:09It's the yin and yang of a married life.
00:03:11Right, Jag?
00:03:12This is for you.
00:03:14Come have a quick drink with me.
00:03:15Come on.
00:03:16I'm working a party, Eric.
00:03:17I'll meet you at the gallery at 4.
00:03:18Lisa.
00:03:21I like you like this.
00:03:23Cheeks flushed.
00:03:25Those wild and tameable strands of hair.
00:03:29I can always make you smile.
00:03:40Let's skip the gallery.
00:03:42You're crazy.
00:03:44I'm one lucky guy.
00:03:47I wouldn't do a documentary.
00:03:49I see something more like the Civil War.
00:03:53What's the difference?
00:03:55Well, I see a, uh...
00:03:58A latitudinal history of, um...
00:04:01Of racing in America.
00:04:03I would, um...
00:04:04I would intercut profiles of the owner of a stud farm.
00:04:08A trainer, a jockey, a female jockey.
00:04:11A stable boy, the racing fan.
00:04:13And then build up to the climax the dirty.
00:04:16Have you seen any of Eric's films?
00:04:19They're thoughtful without being solemn.
00:04:22He is my biggest fan.
00:04:24And, of course, my toughest critic.
00:04:26How about if I send you some cassettes?
00:04:28How much would a project like that cost?
00:04:31Well, you know, we're talking about a labor of love here.
00:04:35So what do you think, dear?
00:04:38Eric's had three wonderful documentaries on PBS.
00:04:41And some of his industrials are little gems.
00:04:46But I think this might be the film that wins him his Emmy.
00:04:49Major backer would meet some very interesting show business people.
00:04:52We'd go to premieres.
00:04:53You might even have to come out to L.A.
00:04:56And this would be tax deductible?
00:04:59Well, it would work something out.
00:05:02We'd have a lot of laughs.
00:05:04Hey, hey, do you know why cannibals don't eat clowns?
00:05:09No, why?
00:05:10Because they taste funny.
00:05:14You want to hear a great title?
00:05:16O for a horse with wings.
00:05:19Oh, thank you.
00:05:34Thanks for helping me with Mrs. Fell tonight.
00:05:37You don't have to thank me for telling the truth.
00:05:39Could have mentioned I haven't had a film in seven years.
00:05:42I wanted to believe every one of those years you could do it again.
00:05:45I could have told her that, too.
00:05:47Hey, there's no one like you, honey.
00:05:56Here you go. Try that.
00:06:02Don't be mad at me, okay?
00:06:04Hmm?
00:06:05I'm going into business for myself.
00:06:07I just signed the incorporation papers.
00:06:10Why?
00:06:12We're in way over our heads financially.
00:06:17We just drove Sarah up to college last week.
00:06:21Barely been making Bruce's tuition payments the last two years.
00:06:25With the two of them away...
00:06:28Look, it takes capital to start a catering business.
00:06:31Dad left me a savings bond.
00:06:33I've got a little over 9,000 saved up.
00:06:35That's enough, isn't it?
00:06:37Oh, wow, is this moving fast.
00:06:43You think maybe you're a little spooked by the empty nest?
00:06:47There's another reason I need my own business.
00:06:51Yeah?
00:06:55I'm...
00:06:57thinking of leaving Eric.
00:07:02Oh, my God.
00:07:04It's a lot worse than I've told you.
00:07:07Business is a disaster.
00:07:09His gambling is out of control.
00:07:11He takes every penny you pay me
00:07:13if I don't sneak it right into my personal account.
00:07:15It's...
00:07:18I've just been waiting for Sarah.
00:07:21Oh, but he's such a great guy.
00:07:24You guys always seem to have such a good time together.
00:07:32Honey, I'm sorry.
00:07:34So it's okay?
00:07:36We'll still be friends?
00:07:38Of course we will.
00:07:40We'll work something out.
00:07:42I'll talk to Gary,
00:07:44see if he can't throw something Eric's way.
00:07:46He won't take it. I know him.
00:07:48He must see how desperate things are.
00:07:50He has no idea.
00:07:52He's living in a dream world.
00:07:56All right, here we are.
00:07:58Six stores.
00:08:00Specialty clothing along here.
00:08:02Can I have a charge account?
00:08:04Espresso bar over there.
00:08:06Espresso bar over there.
00:08:08And my video store.
00:08:10I'm keeping the franchise.
00:08:12No wonder. This is a great location.
00:08:14But I'm having a problem.
00:08:16I need someone to manage it for me.
00:08:18You know movies?
00:08:20I paid 40 grand the first year.
00:08:22What you don't understand
00:08:24when you're a graduate of Betty Crocker U
00:08:26is that there are just some things
00:08:28you can't put in the alumni newsletter.
00:08:30Eric, you don't have to tell Princeton Magazine
00:08:32you're managing a video store.
00:08:36Yeah, sure. Just be a minute.
00:08:42Honey, that was very sweet what you tried to do over there.
00:08:44But what does a girl from Betty Crocker U know?
00:08:46It was a joke.
00:08:48I'm sorry I didn't go to college.
00:08:50I'm sorry I embarrass you.
00:08:52You don't embarrass me. I was teasing you.
00:08:54We kid around. That's what makes our marriage so great.
00:08:56Yeah, our marriage is paradise.
00:08:58The house is leased.
00:09:00The furniture is leased. We're in debt up to here.
00:09:02I hate living like this.
00:09:04If you wanted a regular paycheck,
00:09:06you should have married a janitor.
00:09:08You think we're talking about money here?
00:09:10I'm a filmmaker.
00:09:12You're a fabulous filmmaker. You just don't make any films.
00:09:14You love to put me down for having a dream, don't you?
00:09:16I married you because you had a dream.
00:09:18I didn't marry a guy who plays the horses
00:09:20or who plays around.
00:09:26Gary,
00:09:28thanks for the offer,
00:09:30but I don't think I was cut out for retail.
00:09:32I'll take some of your money in my poker game.
00:09:40Excuse me.
00:09:42You let somebody raid my account.
00:09:44Your teller says I've got only $42.
00:09:46I know I've got more than $9,000.
00:09:48Please, sit.
00:09:52Let's see what's going on here.
00:09:56You had that much,
00:09:58but you've been making ATM withdrawals.
00:10:00Those aren't mine.
00:10:02Who withdraws $300 a day for a month?
00:10:10Do you have some I.D.?
00:10:14This is a personal account.
00:10:16He let somebody steal from me.
00:10:18He let somebody steal from me.
00:10:28The system says there are two cards.
00:10:30What about your husband?
00:10:32Doesn't he have one?
00:10:34No. I told you, it's not a joint account.
00:10:38Tell her.
00:10:40About a month ago,
00:10:42a couple came in.
00:10:44He had a statement for the account,
00:10:46and she had some I.D.
00:10:48I think a credit card in your name,
00:10:50only she wasn't you.
00:10:52They said that they had lost the ATM card
00:10:54for the account,
00:10:56and we issued a new card.
00:11:00Was it him?
00:11:04Uh-huh.
00:11:12This woman,
00:11:14what did she look like?
00:11:18She had beautiful hair.
00:11:20Beautiful red hair.
00:11:44Beautiful hair.
00:12:14You want to watch TV?
00:12:18I heard that...
00:12:22What is this?
00:12:26I went to the bank today.
00:12:28They were surprised
00:12:30my hair wasn't red.
00:12:32Samantha and me?
00:12:34That's nothing.
00:12:36Nothing new, I think you mean.
00:12:38Honey, look, we've had some rocky moments lately.
00:12:40What couple hasn't?
00:12:42Stealing my furniture and stealing my savings
00:12:44is a rocky moment?
00:12:46The kids come first.
00:12:48They needed money in their checking accounts.
00:12:50Honey, I had to give them each a hundred the day they left.
00:12:52I'll get around to opening the accounts.
00:12:54Hey, I had a call today.
00:12:56HBO is this close
00:12:58to picking up the racing documentary.
00:13:00That money was mine.
00:13:02My name was on the account.
00:13:04It was from my debt, my work.
00:13:06I want it back now.
00:13:08I'll pay you back
00:13:10when I have it.
00:13:12You used it
00:13:14to pay your bookie, didn't you?
00:13:16They were coming
00:13:18after us.
00:13:20You've got money. Give it to me.
00:13:22The poker game is rigged. Give me what you've got!
00:13:24Hey, hey, hey! Hey, would you please
00:13:26calm down?
00:13:28Mrs. Feld is going to come through
00:13:30and HBO. I can feel it.
00:13:32Come on, we're on a roll here.
00:13:34Let go
00:13:36of me.
00:13:41That woman
00:13:43is not going to give you a dime.
00:13:45HBO doesn't know you exist.
00:13:47Honey, don't you understand
00:13:49the power of a dream?
00:13:51I have to make this film.
00:13:55Get your story straight, Eric.
00:13:57I put a couple of grand on the pony
00:13:59so the kids could have book money or so you could win
00:14:01the jury prize at Cannes. Which was it?
00:14:03Well, it was a spur-of-the-moment thing.
00:14:05It just seemed like a good idea
00:14:07at the time.
00:14:10We were going to borrow it,
00:14:12hit the double, put it back.
00:14:14You were never going to know.
00:14:16Would you take this?
00:14:18It was a lousy game. I want you to have it
00:14:20as a down payment.
00:14:22Give me another shot.
00:14:24Samantha's history.
00:14:26I'm going to quit gambling.
00:14:28And I'm going to take Mrs. Feld's money
00:14:30and give you $10,000
00:14:32right off the top.
00:14:34Listen, we have been in some tight spots
00:14:36before. You know that.
00:14:38I don't even understand what's...
00:14:40$300?
00:14:42You do something like this and you think
00:14:44you can buy me off with $300?
00:14:46Hey, can we sleep on this tonight, please?
00:14:48Things are going to look
00:14:50a lot different in the morning.
00:14:52That used to work, Eric. And then for years
00:14:54I faked it and I felt guilty and trapped.
00:14:56And all the time you had this other life
00:14:58and I felt trapped.
00:15:00Hey, Samantha,
00:15:02give me one more chance. For the kids.
00:15:04I'm leaving you, Eric.
00:15:06I've said that before.
00:15:08This time, I mean it.
00:15:36Hi, this is Sarah. Guess what? I'm out. Leave me a message. Thanks. Bye.
00:16:00It's Mom.
00:16:02It's after 2. Where are you?
00:16:04I'm on the road
00:16:06on the way to Canada and I just
00:16:08realized that I don't have the new number
00:16:10Everest Storm.
00:16:12I...
00:16:14I have something to tell you guys.
00:16:16So
00:16:18could you call me at
00:16:20315
00:16:225550
00:16:24125 before your first class
00:16:26is in the morning?
00:16:28I'll wait for your call.
00:16:30I love you.
00:16:32Bye.
00:17:02No.
00:17:20Hello.
00:17:22Mom, thank God.
00:17:24Bruce and I are going to the hospital. It's Dad.
00:17:26What? He collapsed in the driveway.
00:17:28Bruce said the doctor told him it's some kind of stroke.
00:17:30We'll meet you
00:17:32there.
00:17:38The Kingsleys
00:17:40were coming home from a party. They think it was about
00:17:4212.30. Thanks.
00:17:44The car door was open and he was just lying
00:17:46there.
00:17:48The dome light hadn't been on. They wouldn't have seen him.
00:17:50What I don't get is
00:17:52where were you?
00:17:54What were you doing in Canada?
00:17:56Mom,
00:17:58he must have needed cigarettes.
00:18:00There were all these quarters
00:18:02in the ground. They figured he'd been robbed.
00:18:04Mrs. McKeever,
00:18:10I just showed the CAT scan
00:18:12to the chief of neurology and there's no doubt
00:18:14it was a stroke
00:18:16and it involves the brainstem.
00:18:18Oh, my God.
00:18:20Now, he could live a few weeks
00:18:22or he could go on for a lot longer.
00:18:24Now, given the type of stroke
00:18:26he's had, he's probably going to have some
00:18:28trouble swallowing, but there's
00:18:30no other paralysis and fortunately
00:18:32his speech hasn't been impaired.
00:18:34Is he awake?
00:18:36Can we see him?
00:18:38Yeah, but he's still groggy.
00:18:40Doctor,
00:18:46really, how bad is it?
00:18:48It's hard to predict.
00:18:52We'll know more in the next 48 hours.
00:18:54All right.
00:18:56Mom,
00:18:58you had to see us
00:19:00in person for some big announcement?
00:19:04Could we do this some other time?
00:19:08You were finally leaving him, weren't you?
00:19:18He's got me at left wing right now,
00:19:20but I think he's moving me into sweeper for the Colgate gang.
00:19:22I was
00:19:24counting on you coming.
00:19:26I'll be there, honey.
00:19:28I have never missed one of your games.
00:19:30I'm not going to start now.
00:19:34Dad.
00:19:36Dad, we love you, okay?
00:19:38We're going to stay right here beside you
00:19:40until you're out of the woods.
00:19:42Out of the woods?
00:19:44I never liked them.
00:19:46How can you bet with a tree?
00:19:52Like this whole thing was just a way
00:19:54of getting us all together
00:19:56for a few hours.
00:19:58Monday morning, I want the two of you
00:20:00back in class.
00:20:02Okay, but only if you promise to be well enough
00:20:04to go home by then.
00:20:06Simone could take care of you.
00:20:22He's come a long way in one week.
00:20:24We're going to have to
00:20:26discharge him soon.
00:20:28When will he get off the feeding tube?
00:20:30Probably never,
00:20:32but we can put a shunt in his side
00:20:34so we can feed him directly into his stomach.
00:20:36He can move around,
00:20:38maybe sip a little liquid,
00:20:40nibble on something soft.
00:20:42Basically, he's going to need help for the rest of his life.
00:20:46Oh, boy.
00:20:48Yeah.
00:20:50You were talking permanent round-the-clock nursing care?
00:20:52Yes.
00:20:54I think you'd be better off
00:20:56taking care of him at home.
00:20:58As long as he's got you,
00:21:00I think it's a perfectly good way to go.
00:21:10Easy.
00:21:12I got you.
00:21:14I got you.
00:21:20I'm going to
00:21:22sleep better tonight
00:21:24having you next to me.
00:21:28I moved into Sarah's room.
00:21:32Boy,
00:21:34you really miss her, huh?
00:21:36Yeah, that's it.
00:21:38No reason to start confronting reality
00:21:40at this late date.
00:21:42I can smile.
00:21:44Liking you was never the problem.
00:21:46God, Lisa.
00:21:50Did you add some steps before I came back?
00:21:56Oh.
00:22:04Don't misjudge the way things are, Eric.
00:22:06You're Bruce and Sarah's father.
00:22:10They'd be here if they could.
00:22:12Since they can't,
00:22:14I'm not going to walk out on you.
00:22:18Well, what happens when I get better?
00:22:22I'm here now.
00:22:24I think that's what matters.
00:22:30I'll make you love me again.
00:22:32I'll...
00:22:34I'll make you love me again.
00:22:38Could we
00:22:40take this one day at a time?
00:22:42The reality is
00:22:44you're never going to see me
00:22:46because I'm going to be out
00:22:48all the time.
00:22:50Doing what?
00:22:52Trying to pay for nurses,
00:22:54food,
00:22:56rent, textbooks.
00:22:58I'm not going to let you
00:23:00come on.
00:23:02I'll figure out something.
00:23:20Just try not to talk.
00:23:24If that's possible.
00:23:30Just one thing.
00:23:32When the kids ask,
00:23:34tell them this is the way
00:23:36you want it to be.
00:23:54Needs a valve job.
00:23:56What kind of money
00:23:58are we talking about?
00:24:00The dealer will charge you $800.
00:24:02I'll do it for $600. I'll have it for you tomorrow night.
00:24:06$600 is a problem
00:24:08for me right now.
00:24:10Put it on a cart.
00:24:12The cart's got taken away.
00:24:14My husband's had a stroke.
00:24:16Wow.
00:24:20Gee, I'm sorry. He comes in there all the time.
00:24:22Give him my best.
00:24:24I will.
00:24:26Listen, since you know us,
00:24:28I...
00:24:30I mean...
00:24:32This is hard.
00:24:34I don't have a job right now.
00:24:36But I've never not paid a bill
00:24:38in my life.
00:24:40I need a car to look for work.
00:24:42Can you fix it and let me pay you,
00:24:44I don't know,
00:24:46a hundred a month?
00:24:48No.
00:24:50I couldn't live with that.
00:24:52Can I use your phone
00:24:54to call another tow truck?
00:24:56You know,
00:24:58I got this sales rep who has this gimmick.
00:25:00Every time he comes in,
00:25:02he gives you something, you know.
00:25:04Makes it impossible for him to leave without an order.
00:25:06Sometimes it's wine, hockey tickets.
00:25:08This week,
00:25:10he left me these.
00:25:12Looks like they'll fit perfectly.
00:25:14You said I had to pay up front.
00:25:16I said I wasn't willing
00:25:18to take money from somebody
00:25:20who didn't have any.
00:25:22So you're saying...
00:25:24If you use that old car out there,
00:25:26pick this one up tomorrow night.
00:25:28I close at 6.
00:25:30I will pay you back.
00:25:32Sure.
00:25:34As soon as your husband gets back on his feet.
00:25:36I can't depend on that happening.
00:25:40Keys are under the visor.
00:25:42Thank you.
00:25:46I meant what I said.
00:25:48I will pay you back.
00:25:50Eventually.
00:25:52I can tell.
00:26:10Is it bad tonight?
00:26:12No.
00:26:16You been asleep at all?
00:26:18No.
00:26:20I'm sorry.
00:26:22I gotta get up every night and do this.
00:26:28You want codeine?
00:26:30God, yes.
00:26:32Could you...
00:26:34Could you just...
00:26:42Shit.
00:27:12Maskin and Son.
00:27:14Uh, Mr. Maskin, it's Lisa McHeever.
00:27:16I'm running late,
00:27:18and I don't want to hold you up,
00:27:20so can I pick up my car tomorrow?
00:27:22Um, yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:27:24It's done. Tomorrow will be fine.
00:27:26Great. I've been handing out
00:27:28samples of my brownies all day.
00:27:30Your idea isn't working.
00:27:32That's why I'm late.
00:27:34My idea?
00:27:36About not going anywhere
00:27:38without a free sample.
00:27:40Since 9 this morning,
00:27:42I've booked a lunch and a baby shower,
00:27:44and in another half hour,
00:27:46I may even have a whole bar mitzvah.
00:27:48You rent rooms or what?
00:27:50I'm a caterer.
00:27:52If I'm lucky and get a deposit,
00:27:54I may even be able to pay you.
00:27:56You sure my keeping the loaner
00:27:58another day's okay?
00:28:00Oh, no, that's okay.
00:28:02I'll switch him on my way
00:28:04to work in the morning.
00:28:06Okay. I gotta go.
00:28:08Take care.
00:28:10Okay.
00:28:30Hey!
00:28:32Hey, hey!
00:28:38Hello?
00:29:08Hello?
00:29:30She's not smoking again.
00:29:32I'm sorry.
00:29:34No.
00:29:36For you.
00:29:38I didn't get the bar mitzvah.
00:29:40I won't be paying you for a while.
00:29:46You should see the garbage
00:29:48people buy out of these machines.
00:29:52They'll be gone by 2.
00:29:54I didn't make these for sale.
00:29:56I know, but I can't eat all of those.
00:29:58I'll have some after lunch.
00:30:00Why shouldn't you make some money?
00:30:02Actually,
00:30:04that's a good idea.
00:30:06Caterers spend most of their time
00:30:08waiting around for jobs.
00:30:10If I lined up a bunch of places
00:30:12that could sell fresh baked goods...
00:30:18You know,
00:30:20I usually eat at a diner across the street there.
00:30:22Would you like to get a sandwich or something?
00:30:24I would.
00:30:26I have a 12.30 meeting.
00:30:28Right.
00:30:30Thanks for the cookies.
00:30:35Ah.
00:30:40Ow.
00:30:42Sorry.
00:30:44You know, I've taken care of some
00:30:46very big people in my time.
00:30:48Like basketball players?
00:30:50I mean
00:30:52well-known people.
00:30:56What the hell is that?
00:30:58Just a gardener.
00:31:00We don't have a gardener.
00:31:02Maybe the missus hired one.
00:31:04Somebody's got to clean up the yard.
00:31:06Clean up the yard.
00:31:30I need commercial ovens.
00:31:32What if I
00:31:34What if I rated your kitchens,
00:31:36every night you're not using them,
00:31:38say, from 6 to 2 a.m.?
00:31:40You have that much baking?
00:31:4218 outlets, 72 dozen a day.
00:31:44Wow.
00:31:46I could do more,
00:31:48but I've got to get home by 2
00:31:50to change Eric's nutrient bag.
00:31:52How's he doing?
00:31:54Well, you know, you and Gary
00:31:56could stop by any time you like.
00:31:58What the hell is that?
00:32:04You know, I...
00:32:06I just have to figure a way
00:32:08to dampen the noise a little bit.
00:32:10Why are you doing all this for me?
00:32:12I figure you could use
00:32:14a little help around here
00:32:16with the trees and the raccoons.
00:32:18I would have got to the trees.
00:32:20I think taking care of a sick husband
00:32:22and working at night
00:32:24to start your own business,
00:32:26that's a lot of work for one person.
00:32:28I know, but there's no...
00:32:30You just can't keep doing things for me.
00:32:32I like working with my hands.
00:32:34It kind of relaxes me.
00:32:38Thanks.
00:32:54Who's that?
00:32:56The new handyman.
00:32:58The new handyman.
00:33:12I see you got that filling station guy
00:33:14trimming the trees.
00:33:16It was his idea.
00:33:18We got to talking
00:33:20when he fixed the Explorer.
00:33:22Are we paying him or what?
00:33:24What's the deal?
00:33:26Brownie customers.
00:33:28Damn!
00:33:30Hey!
00:33:32I dropped the remote.
00:33:36You drown in there or what?
00:33:40Lisa, you know
00:33:42how hard it is for me to get out of bed.
00:33:48Thanks, honey.
00:33:50I am so bored.
00:33:52Why don't you call some of those poker buddies?
00:33:54Those guys from the track have forgotten you exist.
00:33:56I never knew his name,
00:33:58that mechanic.
00:34:00Art Maskin.
00:34:16Hi.
00:34:18Hi.
00:34:20I brought you three dozen brownies.
00:34:22Half walnut,
00:34:24half pecan.
00:34:26Good.
00:34:28You know,
00:34:30the other day when I asked you out for lunch,
00:34:32was that meeting
00:34:34that day or are you always kind of busy for lunch?
00:34:38One of the things about caterers,
00:34:40it's hard to work and you need lunch
00:34:42to keep going.
00:34:44Oh, well, you know, I'm going to be finished here
00:34:46around 1.30 too.
00:34:48How about we grab a sandwich?
00:34:50Earlier would be better.
00:34:52I should be home to relieve the nurse.
00:34:54Fine, we'll make it a quick sandwich.
00:34:56I won't even spoil your dinner.
00:34:58I'd like that, as long as...
00:35:00Yeah?
00:35:02It's just lunch with one of my customers.
00:35:04Lunch means lunch.
00:35:06See you then.
00:35:12That new warehouse club's
00:35:14incredible.
00:35:16I got a pallet of flour
00:35:18and 200 pounds of baking chocolate.
00:35:2020% below wholesale.
00:35:26That woman missed her calling.
00:35:28She was born for vaudeville.
00:35:30I've got to go out again.
00:35:32Viv calls about the flour.
00:35:34Tell her I'll get it out of her garage tomorrow.
00:35:36I thought you were off the rest of the day.
00:35:38No, I'm having a sandwich with a client.
00:35:40Well, push it to tomorrow.
00:35:42We'll send the clumsiest woman in the world home
00:35:44and go see a movie.
00:35:46John, I wish we'd talked about it earlier.
00:35:48Paper or plastic?
00:35:50Mark my words, plastic.
00:35:52Paper does it to you every time.
00:35:54Must be a big client.
00:35:56Some guy in the market
00:35:58for a couple of tons of brownies.
00:36:00He'll do a movie on Saturday.
00:36:02What should we have for dinner?
00:36:04Oh, you know,
00:36:06New York strip, medium rare,
00:36:08cottage fries, and a Caesar
00:36:10with anchovies.
00:36:12Right.
00:36:14He's got his strip.
00:36:18Oh.
00:36:20Old habits are tough to break.
00:36:22Nice to see you so happy.
00:36:24I'm late.
00:36:26Tell him the trees need some more work, will you?
00:36:34I, uh,
00:36:36hope you like chocolate.
00:36:38Oh, God.
00:36:40Okay.
00:36:42You were giving a formal lunch
00:36:44and your original 12 guests came down with pneumonia.
00:36:46I finished up the ambulance
00:36:48sooner than I thought,
00:36:50so I closed up early.
00:36:52Some sandwich.
00:36:54You did all this yourself?
00:36:56Told you.
00:36:58I'm good with my hands.
00:37:00Um, you sure you don't want another lobster?
00:37:02No, thanks. I'm stuffed.
00:37:06Couldn't your dad have
00:37:08spelled you at the station?
00:37:10Well, I, uh, never knew my dad.
00:37:12I'm sorry.
00:37:14I assume from the way you answered the phone.
00:37:16No, um,
00:37:18when I bought the station, I had to come up with a name.
00:37:20So,
00:37:22Baskin and Son.
00:37:24Sounds stable, like you've been around forever.
00:37:26Or
00:37:28maybe I was just wishing out loud.
00:37:34How'd you learn to cook like this?
00:37:36I like to eat.
00:37:38When you live alone, there's
00:37:40TV and cooking.
00:37:42Oh, thanks.
00:38:08I thought you were taking me home.
00:38:10I am.
00:38:12In kind of a roundabout way.
00:38:22Is that legal?
00:38:24Well, as long as we stay under the commercial lanes,
00:38:26FAA's happy.
00:38:28Can you just do this?
00:38:30No.
00:38:32I can't.
00:38:34I can't.
00:38:36Can you just do this?
00:38:40Look.
00:38:44Horseshoe Falls.
00:38:46As a kid, I used to sit in a fence next to this old
00:38:48country airfield watching this pilot
00:38:50fuel up his crop duster.
00:38:52Kept asking him questions about how planes
00:38:54flew and
00:38:56I never figured he'd take me up for a ride.
00:38:58And when you grew up?
00:39:00I knew it was the one thing I had to do.
00:39:06Look, look.
00:39:08Look down there.
00:39:18It's so great up here.
00:39:22I forget.
00:39:24I forget everything.
00:39:26That was the idea.
00:39:36Hi.
00:39:38How are you?
00:39:40Need anything?
00:39:42I'm fine.
00:40:06Nice lunch.
00:40:08It was okay.
00:40:24Business is picking up.
00:40:26I'm putting on five party chefs
00:40:28Thanksgiving evening.
00:40:30Not quite sure what
00:40:32we're going to do.
00:40:34We're having dinner with the kids.
00:40:36I meant about having time
00:40:38to cook.
00:40:42You know what drives me crazy
00:40:44about you?
00:40:46The way you think you keep pulling the
00:40:48wool over my eyes.
00:40:50I have no secrets from you, Eric.
00:40:52Oh, no? You just come in
00:40:54whistling after a five hour lunch
00:40:56with the tree trimmer because there's a
00:40:58bright golden haze in the meadow?
00:41:00Art and I
00:41:02have an occasional lunch.
00:41:04We're friends. I'm not allowed
00:41:06to have friends.
00:41:10I've got two more Thanksgiving dinners.
00:41:12Big? One's 40 people.
00:41:14Wow.
00:41:16I'm interviewing party chefs this afternoon.
00:41:18But I've still got to find someplace
00:41:20to do the pre-cooking.
00:41:22Do it at my house.
00:41:24Really? Sure.
00:41:26That would be great.
00:41:28I can't get anything
00:41:30done at home.
00:41:32How's he doing? Better.
00:41:34Better, but
00:41:36not great.
00:41:42You have to
00:41:44understand the way Eric and I have been living.
00:41:46He's a man
00:41:48who never, not once since we've been married,
00:41:50ever cleared the table after a meal.
00:41:54When Sarah was born,
00:41:56we decided we should
00:41:58both have life insurance policies in case we were
00:42:00run over by a truck or something.
00:42:02He borrowed on the equity until the company
00:42:04finally canceled the policies.
00:42:06Naturally, he didn't tell me.
00:42:08When I found out, I asked him why.
00:42:10He looked at me like I was crazy.
00:42:14Native dancer was even money, he said.
00:42:20He also loves his kids more than any man alive.
00:42:22You never thought of leaving?
00:42:24I thought about it.
00:42:28Just never did?
00:42:32There are all kinds of good excuses.
00:42:34I'll never be able to support myself.
00:42:36At least we're past that.
00:42:38You already make more money than me.
00:42:42It wasn't really money.
00:42:44He was Bruce and Sarah's daddy.
00:42:46They were crazy.
00:42:48He was Bruce and Sarah's daddy.
00:42:50They were crazy about him.
00:42:52I was crazy about them.
00:42:54You just don't seem like the kind of person
00:42:56to put up with all that stuff.
00:42:58Affairs, gambling debts,
00:43:00stolen money.
00:43:02People change.
00:43:04I'm not the same woman I was when I married him.
00:43:08When my wife left,
00:43:10I realized what total strangers
00:43:12we'd become.
00:43:14The people we'd met and fallen in love,
00:43:16the ones with the private nicknames,
00:43:18and the ones that stopped at Pet Stray Cats,
00:43:20those people had just vanished.
00:43:24Why did she leave?
00:43:26She never really said.
00:43:30And nobody else ever came along?
00:43:36Not till now.
00:43:46I thought I was able to leave him.
00:43:48I can't now.
00:43:52I don't want you to.
00:43:54I just want you to know
00:43:56how things are.
00:44:02It would be really nice right now
00:44:04if you would go wash your hands or something.
00:44:16Okay.
00:44:36Viv picked her up.
00:44:38I don't know where they were going.
00:44:40Viv?
00:44:46Can I do something for you?
00:44:48Yeah.
00:44:50Save my ears.
00:44:52Sorry.
00:44:54You know,
00:44:56we really don't know each other.
00:44:58I'm Art Maskett from the garage.
00:45:06Would you like me to drive you somewhere?
00:45:16No.
00:45:46I thought I told you!
00:45:56Hey!
00:46:00Hey!
00:46:04Oh, did you know
00:46:06that Eric can drive?
00:46:08He can barely get in and out of his wheelchair.
00:46:10Yesterday, while you and Viv were at Pittsburgh Plaza,
00:46:12he drove himself out to the mailbox and back.
00:46:14He's always done that.
00:46:16Oh, he's milking his invalid routine.
00:46:18He's not nearly as helpless as he pretends to be.
00:46:20He admits he's lazy.
00:46:22Well, does he admit how angry he is?
00:46:24That is the question.
00:46:26Nobody likes what a stroke does to them.
00:46:28Angry about us.
00:46:30About us?
00:46:32There's nothing to be angry about.
00:46:34We're friends.
00:46:36We are. That's all we are.
00:46:38Well, you have to grant the fact
00:46:40that it's after midnight,
00:46:42which would possibly suggest something else to him.
00:46:44I've been totally up front with him
00:46:46about it being over. Where's the pineapple?
00:46:48Pineapple? Here.
00:46:50I'm just taking care of him. He knows that.
00:46:52Maybe he does, but he doesn't like seeing me around.
00:46:54He's jealous.
00:46:56He lost the right to be jealous
00:46:58after about the first three women
00:47:00after he lost all my money at the track.
00:47:02It's not about money for him.
00:47:04What side are you on?
00:47:06I think that would be obvious by now.
00:47:12I can't.
00:47:14I can't.
00:47:42What time are the kids coming home on Wednesday?
00:48:08I don't know. They're getting rides.
00:48:10When they were little, remember,
00:48:12we used to always go skating
00:48:14on Thanksgiving Eve?
00:48:16That was the best night of the year.
00:48:18We had that rink all to ourselves.
00:48:20Could you put that down for a minute?
00:48:30I have all these dinners I'm doing.
00:48:32I'm gonna be cooking nonstop
00:48:34for the next three days.
00:48:36Well, I can peel potatoes or something.
00:48:38You never peeled a potato in your life.
00:48:40Yeah, well, I can learn.
00:48:42To help.
00:48:44I've invited Art to have dinner
00:48:46with us Thursday here.
00:48:48I'm making all the dishes at work.
00:48:50He'll just cook the turkey
00:48:52and warm everything else up.
00:49:02That grease monkey
00:49:04is not coming through this door
00:49:06into my house.
00:49:18I don't want to hurt you.
00:49:20I will say this only once.
00:49:24I feel like a robot.
00:49:28A caterer.
00:49:30I change your bed.
00:49:32I shop.
00:49:34I get up in the night
00:49:36to change the drip.
00:49:38Every minute
00:49:40of every day,
00:49:42I think about the fact
00:49:44that I'm the one who has to
00:49:46earn the money for tuition,
00:49:48medicine,
00:49:50doctor bills.
00:49:54And I pretend to the kids
00:49:56that everything's all right.
00:50:00I'm not a robot, Eric.
00:50:04I've said it's over
00:50:06between us.
00:50:12What you've done
00:50:14to me,
00:50:20it's just over.
00:50:24What are you really saying, Lisa?
00:50:28I'm saying
00:50:30if you want Thanksgiving dinner served
00:50:32in this house,
00:50:34Art is going to do it.
00:50:36Forget Thanksgiving.
00:50:38He's telling me to my face
00:50:40that you're involved with the yard man.
00:50:44I'm saying I need help.
00:50:46The kids can help. The kids are great.
00:50:48Sarah can bake
00:50:50and Bruce and I can figure out
00:50:52the turkey.
00:50:56I want Art with me on Thanksgiving.
00:50:59But what if that isn't possible?
00:51:04One way or another,
00:51:08it's possible.
00:51:28Hello?
00:51:32Eric! Eric!
00:51:34The door's locked.
00:51:38Hello?
00:51:42Whoa!
00:51:58You okay?
00:52:00Yeah, I'm okay.
00:52:02Just kind of had the wind knocked out of me.
00:52:04He's not home.
00:52:06I mean, I really can't do much to help you.
00:52:08Anything feel broken?
00:52:10Should I call 9-1-1?
00:52:12I'm okay. Just let me catch my breath.
00:52:14No, don't...
00:52:16Whoa! Hey!
00:52:18I mean,
00:52:20you're on top of me.
00:52:24Look, why don't you just
00:52:26load me up before one of us gets killed, okay?
00:52:28Okay.
00:52:44Good God, look at that.
00:52:46I haven't had a beer in two months.
00:52:48Want a beer? Have one.
00:52:50Can't.
00:52:52Doc says it's one of the many ways
00:52:54I did this to myself.
00:53:24What the hell?
00:53:38Well, one more's not gonna hurt anything now.
00:53:40No, no, it's just for the taste.
00:53:42One more would just make you want to keep on going.
00:53:48So tell me, Art,
00:53:50what's in this for you
00:53:52to torment a cripple?
00:53:54Nobody likes to be alone
00:53:56on a holiday.
00:53:58Well, to each his own.
00:54:00Being a fifth wheel doesn't sound too swift to me.
00:54:02I'll do whatever it takes.
00:54:04Whatever what takes?
00:54:06That's my question.
00:54:08To be a part of her life.
00:54:14You're unbelievable, you know that?
00:54:16You come into my house
00:54:18and you just say something like that.
00:54:20She needs help.
00:54:22She's about to snap.
00:54:24Don't tell me what my wife needs.
00:54:26Yeah, well,
00:54:28you just don't seem to get it.
00:54:30The most
00:54:32important thing to her
00:54:34is that you are taken care of.
00:54:36And you're gonna do that?
00:54:38Well, don't
00:54:40waste your time, my friend.
00:54:42I'm a real pain in the ass.
00:54:44Yeah, well,
00:54:46you give it your best shot,
00:54:48but it's an act.
00:54:50And you know that after just an hour, huh?
00:54:52I know it
00:54:54because she's loved you for 23 years.
00:55:14I'm not gonna be able to eat anything
00:55:16but yogurt till Easter.
00:55:18The turkey was delicious, Mom.
00:55:20Art cooked the turkey.
00:55:26Um, anybody want another cappuccino?
00:55:28No, thanks.
00:55:30Mom makes it too strong.
00:55:32Could I have some regular decaf?
00:55:34Sure, I'll put a pot on.
00:55:40Someone want to tell us what's going on here?
00:55:42Who exactly is Art?
00:55:44Come on, Mom. He's gonna be back in a second.
00:55:46Who is this guy?
00:55:48A friend.
00:55:50Your mom's business is really taking off.
00:55:52She's going all the time now.
00:55:54But, I mean, is he...
00:55:56We're not here.
00:55:58I'll say it.
00:56:02We've been worried since the hospital
00:56:04about you two breaking up.
00:56:06We're not breaking up.
00:56:10There's no big mystery here.
00:56:12He helps me.
00:56:14He helps you.
00:56:16She's looking for someone to help full-time at work.
00:56:18It's a temporary problem.
00:56:20That's what your mother is saying.
00:56:22No.
00:56:24It's not temporary.
00:56:30I'm thinking of looking for a cheaper house.
00:56:32What is not temporary?
00:56:38Mom?
00:56:40Honey.
00:56:42This is our home.
00:56:44Our ranch would be better for you.
00:56:46You could get around easier.
00:56:48It'd be simpler for you to eat with us.
00:56:50With us?
00:56:52With the family.
00:56:54When you guys come home.
00:57:04I made you something.
00:57:06I had this windshield wiper hose in my truck.
00:57:08Great. Now you're going to feed them to something
00:57:10you found in the back of your truck.
00:57:12I sterilized it.
00:57:14Now we can hang two bags before you go to bed.
00:57:16No more waking up during the night.
00:57:18Lisa changes them. She doesn't mind.
00:57:20No, she loves getting up in the middle
00:57:22of her nightly five hours.
00:57:24A real chance to do some good husband-wife bonding.
00:57:26That was her on the phone?
00:57:28Yeah. Apple pie is a Kool-Aid.
00:57:30She'll be here when the miss-meet's done.
00:57:32When the phone rings in my house, Art,
00:57:34I'll take the calls. Got it?
00:57:36Yeah.
00:57:48You know that ranch house you saw?
00:57:50The one with the separate apartment?
00:57:52I took it.
00:57:54Well, I was thinking, you know,
00:57:56I'm paying $1,100 a month here.
00:57:58How about I move into that apartment?
00:58:02You'd save $600 a month.
00:58:04Well, I think it's worth more,
00:58:06but besides, I could also chip in for my share of the food.
00:58:14Well, that's what you want, isn't it?
00:58:16It was your idea.
00:58:18My idea was a cheaper house.
00:58:20A ranch for the wheelchair.
00:58:26Well, we spend all our time together anyway.
00:58:28Plus, when Mrs. Skinner's out,
00:58:30there'd be somebody in the house.
00:58:32You think about him more than I do.
00:58:34I like him more than you do.
00:58:36He's in an impossible situation.
00:58:38And you think having you living with us
00:58:40is gonna make things less impossible?
00:58:44Well, if I lived in the apartment,
00:58:46wouldn't it make things simpler?
00:58:50Hmm?
00:58:52No.
00:58:54Don't you understand
00:58:56how hard it is for me
00:58:58having you near me and having to pretend?
00:59:00Pretend what?
00:59:08That we're just friends.
00:59:24Fine.
00:59:28We'll keep things just the way they are.
00:59:32That feels wrong, too.
00:59:34Like we've got some secret from him,
00:59:36as if we're waiting for him to die.
00:59:38Honey, I don't think he's gonna die.
00:59:40Not anytime soon.
00:59:46The house is partially furnished.
00:59:48Look at that great tree.
00:59:50The apartment downstairs
00:59:52has its own bath.
00:59:54The kids' rooms are twice what they are now.
00:59:56I thought the apartment
00:59:58was for one of the kids.
01:00:00No, I rented out the apartment.
01:00:02For $1,100 a month.
01:00:04That means we're living here for $1,400
01:00:06instead of $2,500.
01:00:08Who are the tenants? I hope they're not noisy.
01:00:12One tenant.
01:00:14Art.
01:00:16You're moving in
01:00:18the guy you're having an affair with?
01:00:20I'm not sleeping with Art.
01:00:22Oh, yeah, right.
01:00:24I never lied to you, Eric. I never will.
01:00:26I'm not sleeping with Art.
01:00:28The word I used was affair, Lisa.
01:00:30You care to comment on that?
01:00:32Eric, I promised to take care of you.
01:00:34That didn't mean I was giving up the right
01:00:36to take care of myself or be happy.
01:00:38And he makes you happy.
01:00:40You admit that.
01:00:44He's moving in.
01:00:50Eric?
01:01:08Eric?
01:01:12Honey, are you in here?
01:01:14He must be in his room.
01:01:16Wait here.
01:01:30Lisa!
01:01:44You okay?
01:01:48You all right?
01:01:50Let go of my chair.
01:01:52I said let go of my chair!
01:01:54Do you hear what I said?
01:01:56You go back into the house.
01:01:58We will go inside and talk about this.
01:02:00We're not gonna talk about anything.
01:02:02I'm out of here!
01:02:04Hold on.
01:02:06I am going to Sarah's.
01:02:08She will rent me an apartment.
01:02:10Would you come inside and talk about this like an adult?
01:02:12No!
01:02:14No, I want to talk about it out here
01:02:16so that all of our new neighbors
01:02:18can see what my wife and her boyfriend
01:02:20are doing to me!
01:02:22Look at them!
01:02:24You're impossible and I'm freezing.
01:02:26Do whatever the hell you want.
01:02:28That's what I intend to do.
01:02:30Where are you taking me?
01:02:32Where are you taking me?
01:02:42The way I see it,
01:02:44you've got the advantage now.
01:02:46She thinks you tried
01:02:48to kill yourself over her,
01:02:50so she'll do anything you want.
01:02:52That was the idea.
01:02:56It'll never occur to her
01:02:58that you couldn't stop
01:03:00because the wheels were wet.
01:03:06What do you want?
01:03:08How can you let her
01:03:10move you into my house
01:03:12while I'm still alive?
01:03:16I want her
01:03:18to be happy.
01:03:20And you're willing to
01:03:22share her?
01:03:30Yeah.
01:03:34What is this?
01:03:36The popular mechanics version
01:03:38of Trolls and Jim?
01:03:42You're one weird guy, you know that?
01:03:44Well,
01:03:46this is, uh,
01:03:48one weird situation.
01:04:02Okay.
01:04:04Here's the deal.
01:04:06There are some obvious
01:04:08financial advantages to having
01:04:10a tenant,
01:04:12as long as he sleeps in his own room.
01:04:14And some major drawbacks,
01:04:16like what are the kids
01:04:18gonna think, for example.
01:04:20Bottom line,
01:04:22he's willing
01:04:24to do stuff for me,
01:04:26and I'm willing to let him stay.
01:04:36Well,
01:04:38why are you
01:04:40suddenly willing to look the other way?
01:04:44I guess I realized
01:04:46out there today that
01:04:48you were right.
01:04:52I don't have any other choice.
01:05:06I can't help myself.
01:05:10I have to be near you.
01:05:24Uh, Lisa and I
01:05:26are flying up to Toronto for lunch.
01:05:28Here's the number, in case you need it.
01:05:30Here's your catalogs.
01:05:32Thanks.
01:05:34Spending the night?
01:05:36Uh, no.
01:05:38No, we wouldn't do that.
01:05:40Uh, you're sure
01:05:42you got everything you need?
01:05:44Yeah.
01:05:48Buy her a nice lunch.
01:05:50All right.
01:05:52I'll see you.
01:06:02You think it was okay
01:06:04we flew over here and left him?
01:06:06Oh, he's fine. He's got a stack of catalogs.
01:06:08He's doing his Christmas shopping.
01:06:10You've become the expert
01:06:12on my husband.
01:06:14Next he's gonna have you
01:06:16walking in bets for him.
01:06:18He can talk to me.
01:06:20That's no reflection on you.
01:06:22I'm just saying he takes advantage of people.
01:06:24I'm not the one who misses him.
01:06:26Coming over here was my idea.
01:06:28He knows we're here.
01:06:30He said, have a good time.
01:06:32You're the one who's talking about him.
01:06:36Lisa.
01:06:38Lisa, there's no reason.
01:06:40If he builds up his strength, he can't come over with us.
01:06:42I thought we came over here to be alone.
01:06:46You can't have it both ways.
01:06:48I mean, we can do
01:06:50what we can to make him part of our lives
01:06:52and then just try to live and enjoy ourselves,
01:06:54or we can work shifts
01:06:56nursing him and get off on what martyrs we are.
01:06:58You and I cannot
01:07:00organize our lives exclusively around him.
01:07:02We have to have something else.
01:07:04Who told you you get to organize
01:07:06what I feel about my husband?
01:07:14Give a little bit of it. Let go of it.
01:07:16Stop giving me advice.
01:07:18I'm sorry.
01:07:20I did not mean to sound like I was giving you advice.
01:07:22You do it all the time.
01:07:24You love him.
01:07:26Admit you love him.
01:07:28I can wait as long as it takes.
01:07:30Honey, I can.
01:07:32I mean, I'll do whatever.
01:07:34Whatever.
01:07:36Just love me. Don't try to understand me.
01:07:56Oh, hi.
01:07:58Oh, you look cold.
01:08:00Would you like a cup of coffee?
01:08:02Why are you being so nice to me?
01:08:04Love me.
01:08:06Don't try to understand me.
01:08:08I don't remember if I had an afternoon
01:08:10as bad as today. I was so awful to you.
01:08:12You're right. I can't have it both ways.
01:08:14I can't ask you to love me
01:08:16if I never let you see how I feel.
01:08:26I love you.
01:08:48Mrs. Skinner.
01:08:50Is he asleep?
01:08:52Oh, I checked him
01:08:54about a half hour ago.
01:08:56He was reading that Tim Clancy.
01:08:58Tom Clancy.
01:09:00It must be exciting.
01:09:02He told me he wanted
01:09:04to be alone.
01:09:06Oh.
01:09:08Thank you for everything.
01:09:10I'll see you tomorrow.
01:09:12Night-night.
01:09:14You need anything before I go to bed?
01:09:16Eric?
01:09:18Mrs. Skinner, call 9-1-1 and Mr. Maskett
01:09:20at the station.
01:09:24No.
01:09:38Another stroke?
01:09:40Heart attack.
01:09:44It could happen at any time.
01:09:46There's nothing you could have done
01:09:48if you'd been there.
01:09:51Oh, hi.
01:09:53Where is he?
01:09:55He's having angioplasty.
01:09:57Where's Mom?
01:09:59She's on the phone with the insurance company.
01:10:01They want a second opinion.
01:10:03All right, I gotta find her. Where is she?
01:10:05Down by the cafeteria.
01:10:10What are you doing hanging around here?
01:10:12You have no right to be here.
01:10:14Right?
01:10:16I was here with your mom
01:10:18so you and Bruce could show up.
01:10:20Our father loves our mother.
01:10:22People see you hanging around, they think we're trash.
01:10:24Sarah,
01:10:26I know you're upset, but believe me,
01:10:28nobody thinks your mother is trash.
01:10:30Why can't you just leave her alone?
01:10:49I can't take this.
01:10:51I thought you said the insurance wasn't gonna pay.
01:10:53They aren't. It doesn't matter.
01:10:55I'll borrow the money.
01:10:57Oh, no, you won't.
01:10:59You're starting to climb out of that hole
01:11:01you've been in all these years.
01:11:03Can we talk about money tomorrow?
01:11:05Sure.
01:11:07How's he doing?
01:11:09He's asleep.
01:11:11Carpenter thinks the procedure worked.
01:11:13Good. I'll go see him in the morning.
01:11:19What is Max Flight Enterprises,
01:11:21and why are they willing to pay you all this money?
01:11:23We'll talk about money tomorrow.
01:11:25Art?
01:11:27It's, um, Ted. He's a friend.
01:11:29Come on. You hungry? Let's get something to eat.
01:11:31Oh, my God. You sold it.
01:11:33Hey, if I want to fly, I'll rent a plane.
01:11:35No big deal.
01:11:37You love that plane more than anything.
01:11:39No.
01:11:41Not more than anything.
01:11:49Boy.
01:11:51We're gonna have to start fattening you up.
01:11:58Hi, Sarah. It's Mom.
01:12:00Sorry I missed you again.
01:12:02Please, one of these days, call me.
01:12:06Daddy's good.
01:12:08The doctor's amazed at the progress he's making.
01:12:12And I want to talk to you.
01:12:14The way we used to.
01:12:16I love you.
01:12:21Where's that salad bowl?
01:12:23It's up top there.
01:12:45Art and I are talking about
01:12:47sneaking off to the track on Saturday
01:12:49while you're doing that wedding.
01:12:51You're not strong enough.
01:12:53Oh, well, that doesn't matter.
01:12:55I'm his newest project
01:12:57now that the garbage cans have been secured.
01:12:59Why do you say things like that?
01:13:01Is it supposed to be a joke?
01:13:03You work. Art drives me around and looks after me.
01:13:06I might live forever.
01:13:08A lot of guys would be bothered
01:13:10having their wife's lover live under the same roof with them.
01:13:12Not me.
01:13:14I'm finding it very broadening.
01:13:16I never, ever knew
01:13:18what was on sale at Track Auto.
01:13:21How did I live?
01:13:23Why are you doing this?
01:13:25Wheel of fortune.
01:13:27I never, ever knew when that was on.
01:13:29He doesn't make fun of you.
01:13:31I'm not making fun of him.
01:13:33We're the two amigos.
01:13:35I just don't want the kids to find out
01:13:37and start calling him Uncle Art.
01:13:39Stop it. I'm warning you.
01:13:42This is no way
01:13:44for two married people to live.
01:13:46This is a way for me to survive.
01:13:48Well, what about me?
01:13:50You have a choice. Accept it or say no.
01:13:52Oh, there's a no-brainer.
01:13:54But if you say no, you're going to a home.
01:13:56I mean it, Eric.
01:13:58Will you skip the noble wifely crap?
01:14:00You would love to put me in a home.
01:14:02You just don't have the guts to do it.
01:14:04I don't have the guts.
01:14:06Art lives here.
01:14:08I live here.
01:14:10What you do is up to you.
01:14:12You're my wife. This is my house.
01:14:14If this is my house, I sign the lease.
01:14:16I pay the rent.
01:14:18I want him out!
01:14:38I love you.
01:15:08I'm putting myself in a home in the morning.
01:15:20I'm putting myself in a home in the morning.
01:15:34Come over here.
01:15:38Come on.
01:15:50Nobody wants you to leave.
01:15:58How was it last night, Art?
01:16:00No performance anxiety, I hope.
01:16:02I think Lisa and I think that we need to talk.
01:16:05Fine. I'll start.
01:16:07I am not living in this house with you two anymore.
01:16:10That's not what we want.
01:16:12Last night was about you and me,
01:16:14about the argument we had.
01:16:16You said some things about Art
01:16:18that just sounded so vicious.
01:16:20After all he's done for you.
01:16:22Well, excuse me.
01:16:24I didn't mean to offend St. Arthur.
01:16:27Neither of us is proud of...
01:16:29Do you mind?
01:16:31May my wife and I have a word
01:16:33without you sticking your oar in?
01:16:35He's just trying to help.
01:16:37Surprise, surprise. He's not.
01:16:39All right, then. I'll say it.
01:16:43We are sorry, Eric.
01:16:47I am sorry.
01:16:49It was my idea.
01:16:53It was a cruel, bad,
01:16:55unnecessary thing to do.
01:17:01I agree.
01:17:04But, Eric, no matter what happens,
01:17:08the three of us are in this together.
01:17:12So...
01:17:14you two just imagine
01:17:16that I'm gonna let last night slide?
01:17:21I'd say that 90% of loving
01:17:23is forgiving the people you love.
01:17:28I like you, Art.
01:17:30But I will never, ever love you.
01:17:32Okay?
01:17:37Nobody knows the rules here.
01:17:39Don't you see that?
01:17:41We're all just making them up as we go.
01:17:43Yeah, I thought we were gonna try
01:17:45and figure out something that had
01:17:47the remote chance of making us all happy.
01:17:49Well, then, we're all gonna have to work at it.
01:17:51Yeah, what does that mean?
01:17:53That means you getting off your ass
01:17:55and showing her you're alive.
01:17:57You don't think she knows that after 23 years?
01:17:59I think, for 23 years,
01:18:01you've driven down to the mailbox
01:18:03and you could have walked.
01:18:05Now I think you better prove to her that you can walk.
01:18:07Yeah, well, if I really do get better,
01:18:10you may just lose her.
01:18:12Possible, yeah.
01:18:15You wanna bet?
01:18:19You're on.
01:18:26What are you doing?
01:18:29Oh, trying to prove to somebody or other
01:18:31that I can walk to the mailbox.
01:18:34This is your idea?
01:18:36No, our roommate's.
01:18:38He said if I made it, he'd take me flying.
01:18:41He's got no plane.
01:18:43You told me he had a plane.
01:18:45He sold it to pay for your operation.
01:18:50You okay here?
01:19:00Put your coat on.
01:19:02I'm taking you out for an early lunch.
01:19:04I've been to the bank.
01:19:06They'll loan me the down payment.
01:19:08What do you think?
01:19:10Can you get it up in the air?
01:19:12Well, it'll take a little work.
01:19:14I gotta stick the wing back on
01:19:16and we'll pick up a new engine, but...
01:19:18Oh, hell yes, I can do it.
01:19:20Then we'll do it.
01:19:22As long as it takes.
01:19:24You promised.
01:19:26Promise what?
01:19:28You promised my husband a plane ride.
01:19:34Come on.
01:19:40Yeah, put it up.
01:19:42Come on to your left.
01:19:44All right.
01:19:46Okay, good.
01:19:48Now, just hold it there, darling.
01:19:50How long do I have to hold this?
01:19:52An hour, two...
01:19:58Get down!
01:20:28Come on.
01:20:49Eric!
01:20:51Have you seen my carving knife, the serrated one?
01:20:55Honey, are you in the bathroom?
01:21:01Eric!
01:21:03Honey, I...
01:21:05Lisa, she just dropped by.
01:21:07It was a surprise.
01:21:09Did she lose her voice?
01:21:11My God.
01:21:13I thought you had another attack.
01:21:15I'm surprised you didn't call out with the good news.
01:21:18Sarah, you're being childish.
01:21:21You're being childish.
01:21:23Is everyone else in town being childish, too?
01:21:26Dad says not even Vivian talks to you anymore.
01:21:29All I care about is your father. He misses you and Bruce.
01:21:32I'm here, aren't I? So am I.
01:21:34Yeah, well, I don't insist on bringing my lover with me when I come.
01:21:40Someday you'll understand.
01:21:42Why my mother was attracted to greasy fingernails.
01:21:45Why every wife has to invent her own life.
01:21:49That means torturing your own husband.
01:21:52I'm staying with your father because he asked me to.
01:21:56And because I love him.
01:21:58Art makes me able to do that.
01:22:01You admit that.
01:22:03That's what you don't understand.
01:22:06I love two men.
01:22:10There's a name for women who do that.
01:22:13Mom.
01:22:19Mom.
01:22:41Okay, today is the day.
01:22:43Outside, both of you.
01:22:49Come on.
01:23:19Come on.
01:23:50Sorry.
01:23:52Damn it, we're going flying.
01:23:55There it is.
01:23:57That looks great.
01:24:00No, hey, no wheelchair.
01:24:02You said I had to walk, and I'm gonna walk.
01:24:05Here, take that.
01:24:07This thing doesn't even look used.
01:24:09Well, at least there's sand in every inch of it.
01:24:11I don't know, an airplane just doesn't seem like the ideal do-it-yourself project.
01:24:17Are we sure this thing's gonna fly?
01:24:19No, not really.
01:24:21We'll find out.
01:24:22So where are you taking me tonight?
01:24:24Lisa and I want to show you something special.
01:24:26You're not gonna throw me out or anything, are you?
01:24:28No.
01:24:29Not that it hasn't occurred to us.
01:24:31Okay.
01:24:32Ready?
01:24:33Yeah.
01:24:34Okay.
01:24:43Wow.
01:24:45Isn't this spectacular?
01:24:47This is damn special.
01:24:49Worth every one of those steps, I think.
01:24:53We thought of it on our first date.
01:24:55Oh, please, give me a break.
01:24:57Okay, not exactly the first date, but later, when things changed,
01:25:00we knew we had to show it to you.
01:25:02Yeah, yeah.
01:25:03You just needed someone to hold a stick while you two necked.
01:25:06Not a bad idea.
01:25:07Come on, take over.
01:25:09Oh!
01:25:10Oh!
01:25:11Oh, please, no!
01:25:12Heart!
01:25:13Heart!
01:25:14Come on!
01:25:15Come on!
01:25:16Okay, okay, I got it.
01:25:17I got it, I got it.
01:25:18I got it.
01:25:19Eric, it was never right without you.
01:25:40Hey, how about you and me go see if the mail's come in?
01:25:47You go.
01:25:49Want me to drive you to the mall?
01:25:52Get a racing for him.
01:25:56Bring one back for me.
01:25:58Oh, come on, you're acting like an old geezer.
01:26:03Old geezers have a way of knowing when it's time.
01:26:10You keep an eye on those falls for me, will you, buddy?
01:26:18Come on.
01:26:19Come on.
01:26:20Come on.
01:26:21Come on.
01:26:22Come on.
01:26:23Come on.
01:26:24Come on.
01:26:25Come on.
01:26:26Come on.
01:26:27Come on.
01:26:28Come on.
01:26:29Come on.
01:26:30Come on.
01:26:32We have to go to the hospital now.
01:26:43Thanks.
01:26:44I haven't finished yet.
01:26:47For giving me six months longer than I had any reason to expect.
01:26:56You know why cannibals don't eat clowns?
01:27:00No, why?
01:27:02They taste funny.
01:27:06I could always make you smile.
01:27:16Someday when you and Sarah are watching our grandchildren play,
01:27:21you tell her something.
01:27:25Tell her that she and Bruce and all the others that cut us off,
01:27:34they really missed something.
01:27:38They missed a chance at one percent of what we had.
01:27:46I'm glad you have somebody to love.
01:27:51And I'm so sorry I was such a lousy husband.
01:28:03You were the best husband for so many years.
01:28:09You were a great father.
01:28:13You were a great father.
01:28:16The kids are going to be just fine.
01:28:22In 76, you made me laugh.
01:28:27Remember the one about the blonde and the donut holes?
01:28:37It took guts, all of it.
01:28:43A life in the movies.
01:28:46Living the way we have.
01:28:49Making it to the mailbox.
01:28:52The mailbox?
01:28:55You're crazy.
01:28:56No, I'm not crazy.
01:29:00I love you.
01:29:03I love you too.
01:29:13Tell the kids.
01:29:16More than anything on this earth,
01:29:20I love you.
01:29:42I love you too.
01:29:46I love you too.
01:30:09Let's go home and have some lunch together.
01:30:12Got any party food you need to move?
01:30:15Simple. Pasta with one of your dad's favorite sauces.
01:30:20I can't eat in that house today, Mom.
01:30:45I'll get it.
01:31:04I got this.
01:31:15You always like looking at that apple tree.
01:31:46I love you.
01:31:49I love you too.
01:31:52I love you.
01:31:55I love you too.
01:31:58I love you.
01:32:01I love you.
01:32:04I love you.
01:32:07I love you.
01:32:10I love you.
01:32:13I love you.
01:32:16I love you.
01:32:19I love you.
01:32:22I love you.
01:32:25I love you.
01:32:28I love you.
01:32:43I love you.
01:32:46I love you.
01:32:49I love you.
01:32:52I love you.
01:32:55I love you.
01:32:58I love you.
01:33:01I love you.
01:33:04I love you.
01:33:07I love you.
