00:00Previously on Desperate Housewives
00:03Grandma's here!
00:04In life...
00:05It's called a post-nuptial agreement.
00:07I'm not signing this.
00:09Sign it!
00:10Stop! You're hurting me!
00:12This is Elise. What are you doing here?
00:14You can't change what's already been done.
00:17People leave trails. One of those trails will lead to Deirdre.
00:20I'm not taking my money to the grave. I'm gonna use it to save your ass.
00:23Or who people really are.
00:26Andrew just told me he thinks he might be gay.
00:35Every morning as she went to take out her trash,
00:38Lynette Scavo would indulge in a little daydream.
00:41The details of which were always the same.
00:46One day, her nasty neighbor Karen McCluskey would keel over and die.
00:54And her home would be bought by a lovely Swedish family
00:58with two adorable twin daughters.
01:01The families would form an everlasting friendship.
01:06Culminating in their daughters marrying her sons at an elaborate wedding.
01:11The Scavo's wouldn't have to pay for her.
01:17Yes, Lynette enjoyed her little daydream.
01:21But Mrs. McCluskey always had a way of pulling her back to reality.
01:28Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
01:31Why are you stealing my garbage cans?
01:33The garbage pickup was two days ago.
01:35These cans have been on the street ever since.
01:36I just assumed you didn't want them anymore.
01:38Oh, that's very cute. That's good.
01:41Here. Give him hair.
01:43Bad enough we gotta look at that god-awful color you painted at the house.
01:46We shouldn't have to stare at your cans for days on end.
01:49You wanna talk about good neighbor etiquette?
01:51How about you hire a gardener to take care of that jungle you call a lawn?
01:54I am on a fixed income.
01:56Oh! Well, perhaps you should consider moving somewhere less expensive.
01:59Like a nursing home.
02:01Go to hell.
02:02Run by Germans, hmm?
02:06And, you know...
02:08Oh.
02:10Oh, Mrs. McCluskey?
02:12Mrs. McCluskey, are you alright?
02:17I'll get the door.
02:22For a brief moment, Lynette was presented with an interesting choice of options.
02:30And though she knew she'd hate herself in the morning, Lynette chose to do the right thing.
02:36Lynette, where are they taking me?
02:38You're going to the hospital, Mrs. McCluskey. You're gonna be fine.
02:41Well, I don't want to go alone. Come with me.
02:43Oh, um...
02:45These are trained technicians, and I've got a roast in the...
02:49...freezer.
02:50Please.
02:51I'm scared.
02:56Yeah, I'll come with you.
02:58Okay, here I am.
03:01If I die, I don't want it to be with strangers.
03:05You're not going to die.
03:06How can you be so sure?
03:10Of course, Lynette didn't respond.
03:13How could she tell her neighbor that some dreams are just too beautiful to come true?
03:30I don't think it's so beautiful to me.
03:33I'm scared.
03:39You're not going near you.
03:40How could she tell them...
03:40No, I'm scared.
03:46Well, I don't wanna be in trouble.
03:47YSR-BYRODON
03:47I'm not going to die.
03:48What's left behind you?
03:48I'm scared.
03:48You're scared.
03:49OK, I'm scared.
03:52You're scared.
04:08Life is a journey, one that is much better traveled with a companion by our side.
04:15But sometimes we lose our companions along the way, and then the journey becomes unbearable.
04:25Noah?
04:27Didn't know you were a religious man. What's with the rosary?
04:32They found Deirdre.
04:34What?
04:37Her body had been stuffed inside a toy chest.
04:42Can you believe that?
04:44A kid's toy chest.
04:51She'd been dismembered.
05:00My God.
05:04Cops ID'd her from her dental records.
05:10She's been dead 15 years.
05:14All that time I was looking for, she was already gone.
05:22I'm so sorry.
05:26I have to bury my baby.
05:30I came out here to, uh, figure out what kind of tombstone to get her.
05:37You shouldn't be doing this now. Let's get you home.
05:42There's a cop I want you to talk to.
05:45A cop?
05:45His name is Sullivan.
05:48I paid him to take the heat off you for your neighbor's murder.
05:51He'll get you the file on Deirdre's case.
05:55Apparently they have some leads.
06:05I don't know. I think we may be making a huge mistake.
06:08We made our decision. Let's just stick to it.
06:10Let's say we leave him here three more weeks.
06:13What's the worst that could happen?
06:16Our son just told us that he might be gay.
06:19There are 200 other boys in this camp.
06:22Now, I could explain to you what might happen if we left him here,
06:26but I'm a lady and I don't use that kind of language.
06:34Now, I bet we're worrying ourselves sick over nothing.
06:37This is probably just a phase.
06:38Exactly. So we'll get him home, we'll get him into Christian counseling,
06:41so it won't become a lifestyle.
06:43Well, whatever's going on with him, he's still our son and we love him.
06:47Why would you say that to me?
06:48Because it's obvious how freaked out you are by the whole gay thing.
06:53I may be freaked out, but that doesn't change how I feel about him.
06:56I'm just saying, be cool.
07:02And I can be just as cool as you can.
07:04All right.
07:16It'll be nice to have you back.
07:21Andrew, I would love you even if you were a murderer.
07:36Mommy, the life's not moving.
07:38Oh, for Pete's sake.
07:41Mommy, I'm sorry.
07:44That wasn't real.
07:47Mom. Mom, kids are waiting.
07:50Oh, honey, Hector here teaches salsa dancing at the community center.
07:54I give private lessons, too.
07:56Oh, I bet you do.
07:58Mom.
07:59What?
08:00Would you please not flirt with the ice cream man?
08:02Why not?
08:03Do you need a reason beyond the fact that he's the ice cream man?
08:06It's called moving on with your life.
08:10You just broke up with Morty two weeks ago.
08:12Don't you think you can at least pretend to mourn the relationship?
08:14Oh, you are such a stick in the mud.
08:17We should be out there having fun.
08:20I know what we can do tonight.
08:21We can go to some hip club and get some hot guys.
08:25Mom.
08:26Oh, it'll be great.
08:28I'll say I'm 42 and you can be 28.
08:32What?
08:34Oh, you can pull it off.
08:42Miss McCluskey, you're back from the hospital already?
08:45Turns out I OD'd a little bit on my arthritis medication.
08:48One pill I can open, a jar of four pills, I'm face down calling for my life.
08:52You'll find out about that soon enough.
08:56Well, I'm glad to hear you're all right.
08:58Here.
08:59It's my way of saying thank you for not letting me die out there on the lawn.
09:03Oh, Miss McCluskey, you don't have...
09:04You don't keep that.
09:05It's genuine Tiffany.
09:07Been in my family for years.
09:09I don't know what to say.
09:11It's stunning.
09:27I didn't fight you in, but...
09:29Well, I wanted to tell you what my doctor said.
09:30It seems that arthritis is the least of my problems.
09:32See, I had this skin tag, or what I thought was a skin tag.
09:35But it turns out it might be more serious.
09:43What do you think you're doing?
09:44Please, I can't sleep in the den anymore.
09:47I need to sleep in a bed.
09:48Well, then you might want to try a motel because you're not coming back in here.
09:53How many times have I got to say I'm sorry?
09:56Obviously a few more.
09:59I am not proud of what I did.
10:02I admit, I was way out of line.
10:05You want back in this bed?
10:07You know what to do.
10:10I'm not tearing up the post-nup.
10:12Why not?
10:13Because it's the one way that I can ensure you'll be here when I get out of jail.
10:17Well, then have fun at the motel.
10:20Fine.
10:21Tomorrow I'm cancelling your credit cards.
10:24What?
10:25And I'm taking away your ATM as well.
10:27What am I supposed to do for money?
10:29Maybe once you see how good you've got it here, you'll start treating me with a little respect.
10:33You want my respect? Then tear up the post-nup!
10:36Give me my pillow.
10:40One more thing.
10:41If you ever hurt me again, I will kill you.
10:44If you ever leave me for another man, I'll kill you.
10:51Boy, with all this passion, is it a shame that we're not having sex?
11:09I feel trapped.
11:11You want me to open a window?
11:12No, I'm talking about my life.
11:15Oh.
11:16Are we done making out?
11:18No, no. Keep going.
11:22So what's up?
11:24I'm unhappy.
11:25With Carlos and my marriage.
11:27I feel like I don't have options and it's driving me crazy.
11:30Every time something went south in my life, I always had a plan B.
11:34Now, I feel like I have nothing.
11:35What about me?
11:37And can I be your plan B?
11:38Damn it, John. What is our new rule?
11:41Stop pretending we have a future.
11:45Can't you just walk out?
11:46No.
11:47Because if I leave, then I'll be broke and that's awful.
11:50If I stay, then he's in control and that's horrifying.
11:53And he cut up all my credit cards.
11:54Which means I'm married to him and unable to shop.
11:57Which is probably the worst of all possible worlds.
12:00I'm sorry.
12:02I'll figure something out.
12:06I'm not much fun today.
12:07I'm gonna go.
12:11Wait.
12:16What's this?
12:17You deserve nice things.
12:19And if Mrs. Solis won't provide them, I will.
12:23With your student credit card?
12:25I own my own business.
12:27You mow lawns.
12:28I make good money.
12:29You know, I have 20 houses and I'm this close to getting the driving range of the country club.
12:32I can't.
12:33Yes, you can.
12:41I'll pay it off.
12:43If you want.
12:44But you don't have to.
12:47Mrs. Solis, to take care of you, it's my dream.
12:54Well, far be it for me to stand in the way of a young man's dream.
13:00Okay, Tom.
13:01Yeah, I will swing by the dry cleaners after I hit the market.
13:05I don't know.
13:05Porter has a dentist appointment at 4 o'clock, so the car might have to wait until tomorrow.
13:11Okay.
13:12Yeah.
13:12I love you, too.
13:14Bye-bye.
13:15Hi, there.
13:15I brought you some avocados.
13:17I have a tree in back, but I hate them, and your family seems like the kind that would eat
13:20guacamole.
13:23Mrs. McCluskey, thank you.
13:24That is very nice.
13:25So let's make up a batch.
13:26Oh, um, now's not a good time.
13:29I'm on my way out.
13:31I have a ton of errands.
13:32Oh, you know, that's great, because my car's on the fritz, and I could hitch a ride.
13:35I need to drop by the pharmacy anyway.
13:37No, I can't.
13:38I'm sorry, but I have a lot of things to do.
13:41Well, maybe you could take me later.
13:42I can drop by tomorrow.
13:44Mrs. McCluskey, I'm not going to have any time tomorrow.
13:46Oh.
13:48It's kind of interesting that you can't spend two minutes with me, but you have no trouble taking my Tiffany
13:52lamp.
13:54Oh, for God's sakes.
13:58Here.
13:59You should take this back.
14:01I...
14:02I don't have a place for it.
14:04But that was my thank you for saving my life.
14:07I know, and it was a beautiful gesture.
14:10Really.
14:11But I just...
14:12Save it, Lynette.
14:14I get the picture.
14:28Ah!
14:29Oh!
14:30Oh!
14:30Oh, God!
14:30Susie, this is Tim.
14:34Sorry if we startled you.
14:36Oh, uh...
14:38Yeah, that's okay.
14:39I...
14:40I just didn't expect to see anybody up at a quarter to one.
14:43Oh, Susie, you should have come out tonight.
14:46I met Tim here at the Island's Bar, and he introduced me to this crazy drink.
14:52The dirty volcano.
14:54Ah!
14:55What?
14:56And then we danced, and he dipped me.
15:00Sophie's very limber.
15:03Um, Mom, could I just talk to you in the family room for a minute?
15:07Oh, sure.
15:08Susan is your daughter?
15:11Um...
15:12Yep.
15:12No!
15:13She can't be!
15:14Jess!
15:15No!
15:15Yeah?
15:16No!
15:18Okay, we get it.
15:20She looks young.
15:25Oh!
15:26The man has magic fingers.
15:28What are you doing?
15:29I have a teenage daughter in the house.
15:31You can't just bring strange men you meet in bars here in the middle of the night.
15:34Just having a few laughs?
15:36What's the big deal?
15:37Look, I know you're trying to get over Morty, but this is not the way to do it,
15:40so can you please just go out there and tell him to go home?
15:43You know how blue I've been.
15:46Why can't you be supportive?
15:47I have been plenty supportive.
15:48No, you haven't.
15:49You really haven't.
15:51Now, Tim is my guest, and he will go home when I say so.
15:57If he's not gone in five minutes, I'm gonna go out there and tell him exactly how old you really
16:02are.
16:12Damn, it's time for me to go sleepy-bye.
16:24Delfino.
16:28Yeah.
16:30He must be Sullivan.
16:33The file on Noah's daughter.
16:37Yeah, he said you had some leads.
16:40Yeah, sure, we got some leads.
16:44Is there a problem?
16:45Gee, I don't know.
16:46I'm handing a confidential police report over to a killer and drug dealer.
16:51Why should that be a problem?
16:58Thanks.
17:00Is this what our justice system has come to?
17:02Guys like you walking the streets without a care in the world?
17:07I did my time.
17:08I did my time.
17:08Not nearly enough, you piece of garbage.
17:15You know, I'm glad we had the chance to meet.
17:18Because apparently I'm no longer a murder suspect, thanks to you.
17:22So I don't want to seem ungrateful.
17:25But just out of curiosity, how much does it cost to buy off a homicide detective these days?
17:36Thanks again.
17:39Hey, Delfino, one more thing.
17:59Now this file was misplaced.
18:03Understand?
18:05If even a whisper of this gets traced back to me,
18:09there will be one less cop killer on the street.
18:19For God's sakes.
18:21Don't get any blood on the file.
18:45Ma'am, I'm sorry, but your credit card has been declined.
18:48What?
18:51Oh no, that's impossible.
18:52It's a new card.
18:54I just went shopping with it.
18:56Try it again.
18:56Ma'am, I ran it three times and then I called the bank.
19:00Now may I try another card?
19:03Of course you may.
19:04Will you just give me a moment?
19:14Hello?
19:15It's me.
19:16I've been trying to call you, but you turned your cell off.
19:18Because I'm in a lovely restaurant having a lovely meal that I now can't pay for.
19:22Well, did you order already?
19:23I ate already.
19:25Look, the credit card company called my mom.
19:27I mean, they said that there was unusual activity on my card.
19:30I bought shoes.
19:31Well, I didn't know that.
19:32You know, and then my mom started asking all these questions,
19:34so I just blurted out that the card was stolen and she canceled it.
19:37Why would they call your parents as your account?
19:40They co-signed for it.
19:42Look, if you just explain to the waiter.
19:45What?
19:45That the credit card was canceled by my lover's mommy?
19:48What other options do you have?
19:50Unless you return the shoes and get the money back.
19:52Return the shoes?
19:54I can't talk to you when you're being hysterical.
19:59So, ma'am, what would you like to do about the bill?
20:16Afternoon. I've got a package for your neighbor, Karen McCluskey.
20:19When signing?
20:20Well, isn't she home? She usually never goes anywhere.
20:22No one answered.
20:24All right.
20:29Okay.
20:42So, let me get this straight.
20:44You play tennis, you know wine, and you speak Mandarin.
20:49Does every other man in the world want you dead?
20:53Well, I'm not that impressive.
20:55I pulled a gray hair out of my chest this morning.
20:58I don't know. I'd watch your back.
21:02You know, I really enjoyed talking to you.
21:06You, uh...
21:08Well, you made my day.
21:10I was thinking if you'd like to get together again.
21:15Well, Sam, to tell you the truth, I'm kind of in a relationship right now.
21:19I just wanted to be honest.
21:21It's perfectly okay, Tina.
21:25By the way, this is on me.
21:29Oh, no, you shouldn't.
21:30Oh, please.
21:31Okay.
21:32It's my pleasure.
21:40This is gonna be a disaster.
21:42It'll be fine.
21:45Andrew?
21:46Honey, hurry up.
21:47Dinner's ready.
21:48It's like we're setting a trap for him.
21:50It's for his own good.
21:52You'll see.
21:55Smells good.
21:56What are we having?
21:57I'm making homemade bratwurst with sweet and sour cabbage.
22:01It's a recipe I found in an old German cookbook.
22:06I'll get the door.
22:07Honey, why don't you pour the wine?
22:12Isn't Danielle spending the night at Wendy's?
22:15I believe she is.
22:16Well, then why did Mom set the table for four places?
22:20Huh?
22:21Uh, I asked who's coming for dinner.
22:25Andrew, you remember Reverend Sykes, don't you?
22:29Oh, come on.
22:30Um, Reverend, why don't you have a seat and I will get some refreshments.
22:38Ah.
22:40So, Andrew, it's been a long time.
22:44Yes.
22:46Yes, it has.
22:47Would you like some water?
22:48I have flat or bubbly?
22:49Oh, bubbly, please.
22:53Sue, your mother tells me you've started having some sexual desires for other boys.
23:04I don't suppose I could get some of that.
23:07Nope.
23:08I'm gonna need every drop.
23:11And over the years we've had so many young people come to our ministry
23:16hating themselves for their unnatural desires
23:19and within a few months they've found an inner peace and a tranquility that is nothing short of miraculous.
23:25Oh.
23:26All it takes is a little faith and a desire to change.
23:31I'm sorry, but I really don't want to talk about my sex life.
23:35Well, that's just too bad because this needs to be discussed.
23:38Free, please, let the boys speak.
23:41Go on.
23:43Well, I appreciate your offer to help.
23:45I do, but I don't hate myself.
23:50So, I'm good.
23:52Son, I know what it's like to be a teenager.
23:54It's a very confusing time.
23:56I'm not confused.
23:58I know exactly who I am.
24:07Well, if you ever do want to talk, my door is always open.
24:18Reverend, I don't mean to criticize, but it sounds like you're giving up.
24:24We can't force him on a path of righteousness.
24:27He himself has got to want to make the journey.
24:31Well, then what do we do?
24:32Just stand by while he starts dating boys?
24:35And by the way, the correct word is not gay.
24:37It's sodomy.
24:38We're in the middle of dinner.
24:39So?
24:39So can you at least wait till dessert before calling our son a sodomite?
24:43How you can sit there and be so casual is beyond me.
24:45For starters, I knew this dinner was a bad idea the moment you suggested it.
24:49Well, at least I'm trying to be proactive.
24:51Please, there's no need to get upset.
24:53I am upset because there is a problem here and no one seems to notice it but me.
24:56As far as I'm concerned, if Andrew is happy with who he is, then it is our job to support
25:01him.
25:10Your father is into S&M.
25:12Bree!
25:13He makes me beat him with a riding crop and I let him.
25:16It's no wonder you're perverted.
25:18Look who your parents are.
25:26Excuse me.
25:30What a fun night.
25:32You know, we should really do this again sometime.
25:47Hey!
25:48Hey!
25:49Good news!
25:51I know why you've been so furious at me.
25:54I haven't been furious at you.
25:55Well, yes you have.
25:56And I don't blame you.
25:58Men have been coming on to me from left and right.
26:01And I just, I've been having so much fun and just enjoying life and...
26:05Well, what do I do?
26:06I throw it right in your face.
26:08I'd hate me too.
26:09Mom, I don't hate you.
26:11Well, be that as it may, from here on out I'm including you in all the fun.
26:16The fun?
26:17Mm-hmm.
26:18Your mother's come through.
26:20What have you done?
26:22You and I are going on a double date tonight.
26:25What?
26:25Tim has a friend from the box factory.
26:27And I thought the four of us could hang out, have a few drinks and more d'oeuvres and...
26:31Forget it.
26:32What, Susie?
26:33Mom, I'm sorry.
26:34I'm just not in the mood to hang out these days.
26:37Susie, sweetie, please.
26:38I can't cancel now.
26:39Of course you can.
26:41Just call him up and tell him not to come over.
26:48Tim.
26:49Oh, hi, Sus.
26:51Hey, this is my buddy, Lamont.
26:53I bought peppermint schnapps.
27:08I'm sure she's fine.
27:11She never leaves her mail sitting out there.
27:13I mean, how many times has she thrown hours away because we didn't pick it up the second it came?
27:18That would be five.
27:20I don't know, Tom.
27:21I think something's happened to her.
27:23Okay, so go over and check on her.
27:24But if I'm wrong, then I'm sucked into a two-hour conversation about bunions.
27:29Don't go check on her.
27:31But six months from now, when they find her mummified corpse at the bottom of the basement stairs,
27:35what do I tell the kids?
27:36Oh, yeah, I let Mrs. McCluskey die.
27:38Yeah, and why would they care?
27:39Like they're gonna miss the dry-cleaning coupon she hands out on Halloween.
27:44Tom.
27:45Listen, honey, what can I say?
27:47You're damned if you do, you're damned if you don't.
27:49So, uh...
27:50Good luck with that.
27:53Honey, I'm hating you a little bit right now.
28:00Hi, honey.
28:01Look at my new shoes.
28:03Yeah.
28:04Aren't they gorgeous?
28:05Honey, I'm trying to watch the game.
28:09Sorry.
28:16How'd you buy new shoes?
28:18Shh.
28:18Talk later.
28:19You're watching the game.
28:20No, I want to talk about it now.
28:23You don't have any money, so what's the story?
28:24Oh, you've heard it before.
28:27Girl meets boy.
28:28Boy buys girl things.
28:29Girl leaves happy.
28:30What did you do?
28:32You know, I forgot how generous men could be.
28:35I also forgot I have options.
28:37A whole bunch of them.
28:38What the hell are you talking about?
28:39I don't need your credit cards, Carlos.
28:41And I don't need your money.
28:42But if our marriage is going to work, I need your respect.
28:46I'm not ripping up the post number.
28:48Yes, you are.
28:50Because if you don't, I'm going to put on my new shoes and walk out the door.
28:55Are you threatening me?
28:56No, I'm just pointing something out.
28:59I'm a pretty girl.
29:00And pretty girls are never lonely.
29:11What?
29:18Stop.
29:19I'm really ticklish.
29:23So, children's books, right?
29:25Don't.
29:26The tickle.
29:27Well, I hope you know how lucky you are.
29:28Not everyone gets to realize their bliss.
29:32Yeah.
29:32It can be rewarding.
29:35Why don't you join me?
29:41No.
29:42I'm really ticklish.
29:45Come on.
29:46What's wrong?
29:48For God's sake, Tim, she's ticklish.
29:50How many times do you have to be told?
29:51No.
29:52This is so much fun.
29:54Come on.
29:54Let's find another CD.
29:56Another.
29:57Don't you think it's getting a little late?
29:59Come on.
30:01You haven't even finished your snack.
30:11The perfect capper to the perfect evening.
30:14So, good night.
30:16It's been lovely.
30:17And, Lamont, good luck with all your inventions.
30:20It's only 11.30.
30:22Hey.
30:22I want to hit the club.
30:24I know a great place just off the interstate.
30:26Come on.
30:27Let's warm up the old doorway.
30:29Come on.
30:29Hold it.
30:31You are not getting in a car alone with those two.
30:34You barely know them.
30:35I have great instincts about people.
30:38I always have.
30:39Susie, you know that.
30:40You've been married four times.
30:41Yes.
30:42But twice to the same guy.
30:45No.
30:47Mother.
30:48Susie, please.
30:49You are embarrassing me.
30:50Oh, I'm embarrassing you?
30:52Yes.
30:53Well, I've had it.
30:54All night long I've been trying to get you to something so crappy.
30:58And you refuse to let me help.
31:01And your idea of helping is letting Tim just grope you?
31:04Hey, you shouldn't talk to your mother like that.
31:07She's a fine lady.
31:08Tim, could you just stay out of it?
31:10Yeah, mind your own business.
31:12Yeah, what's your problem, pal?
31:13Dude, you were feeling up her mother.
31:15It pissed me off too.
31:17Come on, Susie.
31:18Let's go back inside.
31:20Let's go back inside.
31:21Lamont, give it up.
31:22You're not getting any.
31:27Why are you being this way?
31:28Just...
31:29I'm just trying to lighten things up.
31:31If you stop acting like tonight was about helping me,
31:34you wanted to go out and have fun,
31:36and Lamont over there needed a date.
31:38That's not true.
31:38No, yes it is.
31:42Okay, fine.
31:43It's true.
31:44I wanted to get out and have fun.
31:46Why shouldn't I?
31:47You know how depressed I've been over my breakup with Morty.
31:50Yeah, I do.
31:51And that's what makes me so crazy.
31:53You know, the difference between you and I,
31:54that you could be heartbroken,
31:56and you can just move on,
31:58and I am just broken.
32:07I know.
32:08You're sad.
32:09No, Mom.
32:10I'm not sad.
32:12And I'm not crabby.
32:15I'm devastated.
32:16And you keep acting like all I need is a couple of aspirin.
32:20Morty was just one guy in a series of guys for you.
32:25And Mike...
32:28He was the one.
32:31Why don't you get that?
32:40It's Lynette.
32:44Hello?
32:47Mrs. McCluskey?
32:52Mrs. McCluskey?
32:53You all right?
32:54How did you get in here?
32:57Uh...
32:57Mr. Mullins had a spare.
33:01Why didn't you open the door?
33:02Because I was hoping that you'd go away.
33:07Have you been taking your arthritis medication?
33:09I don't need to.
33:11Sometimes the pain goes away by itself.
33:13Uh-huh.
33:15Is that why you didn't open the door?
33:16Because of your hands?
33:20Mrs. McCluskey, do you have anyone that could help you out?
33:23A relative?
33:24A friend?
33:26I'm fine.
33:30Okay.
33:35Okay.
33:37Uh...
33:38Before you go, open these, would you?
33:41And put out the pills.
33:45Yeah.
33:47And don't get your hands all over them.
33:49God knows what your kids have picked up.
33:50Last thing I need, it's a case of pink eye.
33:54You're a piece of work, you know that?
33:57Well, this is crazy.
33:58Why'd they give you child-proof caps?
34:00Yeah.
34:00First thing tomorrow, I'm taking you to the pharmacy,
34:02and we'll get you new bottles.
34:04Don't do me any favors.
34:05You don't even like me.
34:06I don't want you doing anything because you feel obligated.
34:09Let me tell you something.
34:10Half of life is obligations.
34:12You don't want to go to your husband's company Christmas party,
34:15but you do.
34:16You don't want to sell candy
34:17so your kid's band can buy piccolos,
34:19but you do it.
34:20You attend your third cousin's wedding.
34:22You pick up the dry cleaning.
34:23That's life.
34:24It's obligations.
34:26And you are now my obligation.
34:28So tomorrow morning, I'll pick you up,
34:30and we'll go to the pharmacy.
34:31Gee, I'm touched by your outpouring of compassion.
34:34We don't have to be friends.
34:37But we're two human beings,
34:39living on the same piece of earth.
34:41We can at least try and help each other out once in a while.
34:49And you know what?
34:54I am going to take this.
34:58Fine.
34:59I'll see you tomorrow morning.
35:01Pick me up at nine.
35:03And don't be late.
35:12Andrew, come here. I want you to see this.
35:18Um, what are you looking at?
35:20I'm looking at your baby pictures.
35:23Look at that one.
35:27How old was I there?
35:28Just four weeks old.
35:39I never told you this, but when I gave birth to you, there were...
35:43complications.
35:45The umbilical cord wrapped around your neck and you stopped breathing.
35:50The room got very quiet.
35:53And I knew you were in trouble.
35:55So I turned to the doctor and I very calmly said that he was not to worry about me,
36:00that his job was to save your life.
36:03When I say I would die for you,
36:07that's not an expression.
36:10I mean it.
36:13Yeah, well, um...
36:16I'm gonna go eat my sandwich.
36:19Andrew, please just go and talk to Reverend Sykes.
36:23Oh, for God's sakes.
36:24He can counsel you.
36:25It can help.
36:26Mom, I don't need any help.
36:28Alright? I'm fine.
36:30Why do you keep going on about this?
36:32Because if you don't change who you are, then you won't go to heaven.
36:43You, um...
36:45You don't think I'll go to heaven?
36:48No, I don't.
36:51And I need you there.
36:52I would be so lonely without you.
37:01Well...
37:02I guess I better go talk to Reverend Sykes.
37:06Oh, Andrew.
37:08Thank you so much.
37:09You don't know how much that means to me.
37:17Oh, my gosh.
37:20Are you okay?
37:21Oh, yeah. I just fell down the stairs. I'm fine.
37:25What's up?
37:26Susan still loves you.
37:30Wow.
37:32Okay.
37:34Look, this is just not a good time for this conversation.
37:36She just misses you so much.
37:39Sophie, I just found out that someone I was very close to is dead.
37:43Oh.
37:43I really gotta figure out what I'm gonna do, so I just don't have time to think about Susan right
37:47now.
37:48She's just very, very unhappy, and if you could just...
37:51I really don't.
37:54Sorry.
37:54I'm sorry.
38:29I swear before Almighty God I won't reveal a word that's said here today.
38:35Now.
38:37What's on your mind?
38:41Well, here's the thing.
38:42I lied to my parents.
38:45I'm not gay.
38:46You're not?
38:48Not really.
38:51Look, all I know is I wanted to get the hell out of that camp.
38:55So, I lied to my parents and I told them that I was really worried that I was having feelings
39:00for other guys.
39:01And they did exactly what I wanted them to.
39:04They are such tools.
39:06I'm sorry, just so I'm clear.
39:09Are you a heterosexual or aren't you?
39:11Look.
39:14I love vanilla ice cream.
39:16Okay.
39:17But every now and then I'm probably gonna be in the mood for chocolate.
39:22You know what I'm saying?
39:25I do.
39:27But God would prefer you stick to the vanilla.
39:31I don't believe in God.
39:33You don't?
39:35No.
39:36Sorry.
39:39You know, your mother's gonna be devastated.
39:41She's been praying so hard for you to change.
39:43Well, that's the good news.
39:46I am gonna change.
39:48Big time.
39:49I'm not sure I follow.
39:54You know what my mom said to me last night?
39:58She said she doesn't think I'm going to heaven.
40:01Can you believe that?
40:04I'm sure she didn't mean to hurt your feelings.
40:07But the only way you can know paradise is by repenting your sins.
40:15When she said that to me,
40:18it suddenly hit me how I was gonna get back at her.
40:21From now on, I'm going to be so good.
40:25I'm gonna eat my vegetables.
40:28I'm gonna get good grades.
40:29I'm gonna say yes ma'am and no ma'am.
40:32I'm gonna make her believe that God has delivered her this little miracle.
40:39Till one day, when she least expects it.
40:43I'm gonna do something so awful,
40:46it's going to rock her world.
40:49I mean, it is really going to destroy her.
40:54When that day comes,
40:57trust me,
40:59I'll know paradise.
41:14Yes.
41:15Life is a journey.
41:18One that is much better traveled with a companion by our side.
41:23Of course, that companion can be just about anyone.
41:27Miss McCluskey!
41:30We're gonna be late for the doctor.
41:32A neighbor on the other side of the street.
41:34I'm coming, jeez. Hold your water.
41:40There you go.
41:42No more post-nut.
41:44Or the man on the other side of the bed.
41:52The companion can be a mother with good intentions.
41:56Thank you for a wonderful service, Reverend.
41:59Thank you so much for me.
42:00Or a child who's up to no good.
42:03Very inspirational.
42:10Still, despite our best intentions,
42:13some of us will lose our companions along the way.
42:19And then the journey becomes unbearable.
42:26You see, human beings are designed for many things.
42:33But loneliness isn't one of them.
42:41Who wants us to stay inside the house.
42:44How are you doing?
42:44No matter.
42:48Who wants us to enjoy.
42:49Not him, we'll be.
42:54Not him, he emotional, you know?
43:06The way he goes?
