00:07Hi mom and Paul and Patricia. Well I'm here. It's not exactly the Holiday Inn as you can see.
00:18Mostly we're filling sandbags and cleaning vehicle filters. This particular war it's
00:24really important to keep the mechanisms clean because of all the sand which can be as much
00:28of a threat as any missile that Saddam can send. Captain Summer says. I can't say much
00:35but pretty soon we're going to get into the real action and we're well prepared I'll tell you.
00:40You guys can you mind because I'm sending this on to my folks. I'll be done in a minute just
00:45so.
00:46What else? We're protecting your ass folks. I love you America. Thank you.
00:56Bailey come on I'm just. Hey guys you want to say hello to victim's phone? I'm up.
01:01Come on you guys. Damn it.
01:05Sorry mom. Some of these guys are kind of crazy. They're good soldiers. I'm getting a lot of
01:14responsibility here. I think it's been very beneficial in terms of personal leadership
01:18skills and getting a job. A lot more than had I stayed at home. Well I've got a lot to
01:22do before
01:23lights out. So until next time this is private first class Victor Kovic signing off.
01:27Thanks. Hey buddy. Brought to the latest South Park.
01:53Fuck David. Hey sleepyhead. You know I had the weirdest dream. Really? Yeah. This guy comes
02:04into my house at like 4am. He climbs into my bed. But instead of having his way with me he
02:13just passes out. And all night long he keeps jerking. That is weird. And he talked in his sleep.
02:22Now what did he say? It was completely unintelligible but angry. Huh? It was even teeth grinding.
02:29Well that explains the headaches. I was thinking exposure to formaldehyde gives me a brain tumor.
02:35Hey would you like some caffeine with that tumor? Okay. David I can't. Why not? Because last night I drove
02:46Mr. Sinopolis body all the way to San Jose. Then straight back I barely got four hours sleep. And
02:51frankly I'm getting tired of always getting the shitty jobs you don't want. I'm half owner of this
02:54business. You can't legally do intake without me. You're not a licensed funeral director. I'm getting
02:59my license next month. If you pass the test. Hey thanks for the vote of confidence. And how am I
03:04supposed to study for that test and only four hours sleep a night? Coffee and diet pills
03:07worked for me. Nate I can't pick her up. I've got a deacons meeting. Enrico's got Vanessa's
03:11ultrasound. Shit. You know the last time I had to pick somebody up at a nursing home and nobody
03:15had even told a roommate she was dead. I had to. Just be thankful we've got the business.
03:22Thankful I'm not you.
03:30What?
03:33Oh. It's Mr. Sinopolis. Sorry. Fuck I smell like a dead guy. No you smell fine. Your life
03:41stinks. You complain all the time and that's really dull. Huh. I didn't realize I was boring
03:47you. Nate you need to take a break. Some major stress release that's not me. It's too much
03:52responsibility. I thought you liked being an undertaker's girlfriend. Is that what I am to
03:59your girlfriend? Well I like to think of you as my mistress. Well then you better start buying me a
04:06lot more shit mister.
04:07Oh god I love you.
04:14Okay. Um I said it. Let's just move on. Let's go to Two Bunch Palms this weekend.
04:19Uh what? Fuck it yes. I'm just gonna I'm gonna take the weekend off and David can just bite me.
04:24This weekend? Yeah. We'll sit in the hot mud. We'll get massages. We'll eat like pigs. We'll drink a lot.
04:30If we leave Friday night we can be naked for two whole days.
04:32Oh I got three clients this Saturday. We'll postpone. Cancel. Lie. Come on. We've never taken a trip together. We
04:39need to do this.
04:41Two whole days. Two whole days. What if we drive each other crazy? Well we don't.
04:54Hovering.
05:05Claire I've invited a friend of mine over for dinner tonight. Okay. And I want you to be nice to
05:10him.
05:14Is this the guy?
05:18The guy that um... Yes.
05:23Okay.
05:29Thanks for your patience everybody. I know we're running late. By the way I spoke to Father Clark this morning.
05:34He's holding up well.
05:35He says you folks are the most thorough search committee he has ever encountered.
05:42David I understand you're the last one to meet with him.
05:45This afternoon.
05:45Good. We've been interviewing associate priests for three months. It'll be nice to have an open mind.
05:52Clark struck me as a player. Man of God wants to listen but there's ego there.
05:57You didn't want Jack.
05:58Honey you say that so easily and you know it's not true. I've never seen you so desperate.
06:03Listen you folks have to represent the whole congregation and believe me if Clark's not right
06:07I'm ready to start over from the beginning.
06:09Let's vote right now. You know him David. He's been a visiting rector. You got his resume.
06:14All the deacons are here. There's no reason why you can't vote now. I'll be happy to leave the room.
06:18No. I want to meet with Father Clark myself so I can make the most informed decision.
06:22This how it works Jack? You bring in the new generation deacon. The new deacon brings in the radical priest
06:27you want.
06:28I can assure you there's no agenda here Mr. Kriegenthaler.
06:31Except yours. Don't worry Dave. I had a parish in Ohio where punches got thrown.
06:36Steel workers. St. Bart's doesn't even come close.
06:40Actually David your father was against Jack here. And as I said at the time your father was wrong.
06:49Oliver.
07:11I'm sorry. I was biking down the boardwalk. I didn't have my cell phone on me. Good morning Nate.
07:20Bill?
07:21Oh Brad I got some fucking amazing shots of these hookers on sunset I want to show you. Real human
07:26tragedy shit. I think they're really good.
07:35Well your mom walked in on us once. So I guess we're even.
07:42This chick has seen the fucking worst life has to offer.
07:45Jesus Billy these are incredible.
07:48And what is that thing on her neck? She's got like this big tumor and she's still turning tricks.
07:52And you just know there is some freak for whom that is a big turn on.
07:56I love the bank of America in the background.
07:59Well I have to go to work. Bring out your date.
08:02They're great.
08:04Don't forget cancel those appointments on Saturday.
08:17So it's Saturday.
08:21We're going to California Cactus World out on Rosemary Boulevard. I want to get something really weird to plan out
08:25back.
08:29I want to get something really weird to plan out back.
08:30Yo Dave.
08:30In here.
08:32Sorry there was an accident in the 405. Both cars totaled.
08:37Should have stopped and handed out cards.
08:41This is Paul Kovic. His brother Victor just passed away.
08:44I'm sorry.
08:45It's my brother Nate.
08:47Paul Kovic. You went to Bonaventure High?
08:50Yeah.
08:50I was there when you pinned that huge guy from Eureka and won the state wrestling championship.
08:54You're the man.
08:55Me and my friends were so jealous because we all knew how much we were getting laid.
08:59Are you wrestling?
08:59No. I played a little baseball but we always lost.
09:02So what are you doing now?
09:03I run Kovic trucking up in Camarillo.
09:06Why? So you know how expensive you can be?
09:08No.
09:09Paul and I were just going over the options for his brother's funeral.
09:12Okay. I run a business too. Let's just cut right to it.
09:15Of course.
09:15I buried both my parents and no offense.
09:18But I hate you guys. I hate what you do.
09:20The whole thing of let's all gather and look at this plastic dead version of our loved one.
09:24It's really twisted.
09:25I want Victor cremated.
09:27No coffin.
09:28I can put him in one of those cardboard boxes you charge a hundred bucks for.
09:32I'll take him up to where our mother's buried up in Tehachapi and let his ashes blow away.
09:37I see Victor's a veteran. If you'd like, we can research any death benefits he might be.
09:41No.
09:42Vic hated the army.
09:43Me and him have been fighting the army for seven years.
09:46His unit cleaned up a place called Bunker 73 in the Iraqi desert.
09:52Chemicals all over.
09:54Saddam stuff, we blew up.
09:55As soon as he came back, he got sick.
09:57Lung cancer at the age of 29.
09:59Never smoked a day in his life.
10:01Still no one will say the word Gulf War Syndrome.
10:04He just wasted away in and out of that hospital.
10:10So fuck the army.
10:12Let them keep their fucking money.
10:14I gotta fly up to Idaho Falls to tell my stepfather he's got Alzheimer's.
10:18I don't know if he'll hear me or not.
10:21You're absolutely sure you wouldn't like the opportunity to say goodbye to Victor before?
10:25I already said goodbye.
10:26Let's do it.
10:28And as for a receptacle for his cremains?
10:31Paper sack on it, dude.
10:32Just fine.
10:36Nine hundred bucks.
10:39Well, he obviously doesn't know about the Poseidon Society or that's nine hundred we'd be out of.
10:43That guy was the shit when I was in high school.
10:46You know, I never even knew he had a brother.
10:48It's time you introduced yourself.
10:49He's at the VA hospital.
10:52All right, but first, I just gotta talk to you about something.
10:54Nate, it's out of the question.
10:56I cannot spare you.
10:57We have three bodies right now.
10:58What is the problem?
10:59Mr. Jacobson's going into the ground tomorrow and Vic Kovic will be toast by the weekend.
11:02What if we get another body or two?
11:04We cannot afford to turn down business.
11:06No, I'm sorry.
11:07I don't need your permission.
11:09Do you know how long it's been since I've had two days off?
11:11Well, you see, here's the difference.
11:12You're willing to live like that.
11:13I'm not.
11:14I've invited my friend Hiram Gunderson over to dinner tonight.
11:17You're welcome to join us.
11:19Wouldn't a restaurant be better?
11:20This is our home.
11:22This is my home.
11:24Oh, the camping guy.
11:26Okay.
11:27Can I bring Brenda?
11:29Hiram will be cooking.
11:31He spent 17 years as a top chef in Chicago.
11:34The food critic of the Sun-Times called him the father of the new rustic cuisine.
11:38And then he gave it all up to become a hairdresser.
11:42And he has never been happier.
11:49You're multiplying differing variables.
11:52So, you have to simplify.
11:55Okay, and then finally, oops, look at that.
11:58Same variable, okay?
11:59Four and four gives us what?
12:02Eight!
12:03And finally, these two binomials, right here, are exactly the same.
12:08So we what?
12:13Combine!
12:14Two, x to the third, y to the fourth.
12:20Okay?
12:24Any questions?
12:29Claire Fisher.
12:31What?
12:32Can you explain this formula to the class?
12:36Not really.
12:36Well, maybe if you paid attention in class instead of reading.
12:39Well, maybe if you talked about something that was actually going to be useful to me, I would.
12:43Oh, algebra is useless.
12:46Know a lot of physicists who'd beg to differ.
12:48Well, I don't want to be a physicist.
12:51Algebra forces your mind to solve problems logically.
12:54It's one of the only perfect sciences in the world.
12:56You think the world runs on logic?
12:57Come on, open your eyes.
12:59Okay, I'll see you after class, Miss Fisher.
13:04What are you doing?
13:09Right, now let's try another one, and I'm going to make this a little tougher.
13:19Okay, x to the a power times y to the b power.
13:25Okay, now we've got two.
13:32Of course we have catalogs for a wedding package, but you have to come in and look.
13:36I can show you over the phone.
13:38Website? What website? We don't have website.
13:43Mister, you have to come into my shop and look at my work.
13:48Website.
13:50Ah, the day just get brighter.
13:53Hush.
13:54So, who's dead now and what do you need?
13:57Nobody's dead. I can't return these vases.
13:59You should recycle them, save a little money.
14:02So thoughtful.
14:04I am touched.
14:05Look, don't be silly. It's wasteful, that's all.
14:07Here.
14:10You still have that sign in the window.
14:12Yes.
14:13You know somebody good?
14:14I do.
14:15Me.
14:15You?
14:18I am interested. Let's talk.
14:19Robbie, I'm going to lunch.
14:20I'm not going to lunch with you, Nicolai.
14:23I'm seeing someone.
14:24So what? This is business.
14:25I hope so, because otherwise I withdraw my offer.
14:28Tell me. Why I should hire you?
14:31I've been working with people for over 30 years and I know how to treat them with respect.
14:35I respect people too.
14:36You're pompous and arrogant and you're full of yourself.
14:38You act like the customer needs you.
14:40Of course the customer needs me. I have what he wants.
14:43You'll never build a business that way.
14:45I'm better with people and I know about flowers.
14:47And if you don't think so, you can fire me.
14:49Fire you? How I can fire you? You don't even work yet.
14:55My parish in New Mexico, I think they're afraid of me.
14:59They recommend you highly.
15:01They always do after I'm gone.
15:04I won't lie to you, David.
15:06I'll push for some change at St. Bart's.
15:08I mean, this is one of those congregations that thinks sitting through church once a week
15:12absolves them of all moral responsibility and they can ignore the plight of others.
15:16Don't get me wrong. They're good people.
15:20They're just lazy.
15:22I don't think that's entirely fair, Clark. We have a homeless outreach.
15:25You don't give the swing vote.
15:28I've been a deacon three weeks. I'm still getting used to how political the whole thing is.
15:32Religion is politics, David.
15:36Jesus was a revolutionary.
15:39Threatened those in power and they had him assassinated and they did the same thing to him today.
15:44I'm not sure how much luck you'll have getting St. Bart's to stage a coup.
15:48The last thing that God wants from us is complacency.
15:51Maybe you should be in the Peace Corps.
15:53Already done it. Three years in Nicaragua, fresh out of Divinity School.
15:56It's where I lost my wife.
15:59I'm sorry.
16:05The hardest part about my work is the fact that most people don't want a real relationship with God.
16:11I mean, sure, they'll pray to a man nailed to a cross, but they'll ignore the gay kid who gets
16:17strung up or the black man who gets dragged behind a car or someone's mother living in a box.
16:22Were you this forthcoming with the other deacons?
16:26Hardly.
16:26Hardly.
16:28What did you and Walter Kriegenthaler talk about?
16:31Golf.
16:34So, why did you decide to be so honest with me?
16:40Because I can tell that right and wrong actually matter to you.
16:59This thing is fucking medieval. We gotta get it fixed before somebody loses a finger.
17:01You never cared until it was your finger.
17:04Rico, a little help?
17:05Why should I?
17:06You know, it's because of you I'm gonna be working double shifts this weekend.
17:10Okay, that's just David being dramatic. We'd have to get at least two new bodies for that to be necessary.
17:15I'm in bigger numbers than that.
17:18Let's forget it. I know the score. It's never gonna be Fisher and Sons and Diaz. I know that.
17:25Let's see what we got.
17:26This one's a direct cremation. Nothing for you.
17:28Oh, fuck. What is that? You shouldn't just burn people like they're garbage.
17:35What the?
17:45Look, it came with fries.
17:49Hey, look at this. Doesn't even look like the same guy, does it?
17:55It says he applied to be buried at the National Cemetery.
17:58He signed a request for a flag fold, military escort.
18:01Oh, man.
18:02Then you can't burn him.
18:06I can make him look like that again.
18:09Well, almost.
18:11You could ace algebra, Claire, and we both know it.
18:13Power rests on the kind of knowledge one holds, so what's the use of knowing something that's useless?
18:17Like, don't quote Castanet at me.
18:19Why not? You quote Bob Dylan at me.
18:22You need algebra for college.
18:23See, you're just assuming I'm going to college.
18:25I know you're taking the PSAT tomorrow afternoon. That means you're thinking about it.
18:28But is that the only option? Go to college, get a job so you can be a good consumer until
18:32you drop dead of exhaustion. I don't want that.
18:34So what do you want?
18:38I just want something to matter.
18:44Maybe I should wander around the desert and eat peyote and see God.
18:47Yeah, be a homeless drug addict.
18:50You can get bored with that pretty fast.
18:53Hey, have you heard of the, uh, Sierra Crossroads program?
18:57What's that, like bungee jumping for Jesus?
19:00No, no, it's not affiliated with any religion.
19:02It's, um, actually a great program.
19:04Spent a couple years there as an instructor.
19:06I think you might really like it.
19:08Why?
19:08Because it would get you out of yourself, get you out of your head.
19:12Now, I'll warn you, it's, it's hard, but exhilarating.
19:15I think it might just give you the challenge you're looking for.
19:17Yeah, there's an expedition going on over spring break.
19:19I could pull some strings, see if I could get you in.
19:22Why do you care what happens to me?
19:24Because I like you.
19:26I don't want to see good things happen for you, and I know they can.
19:31We had to dig his service records out of St. Louis.
19:35Then there's the big question of whether his cancer was service related.
19:38That means finding a doctor who thinks it was.
19:41Yeah, it took me four months to get all the approvals, but it means a burial allowance of up to
19:461500 from the VA.
19:48Might as well, uh, take that stuff too.
19:50I packed it up for him.
19:51That's too bad nobody told his brother what he wanted.
19:53I did.
19:54Oh yeah, I gave Paul the forms.
19:57I found them later in the trash.
19:59Well, it's mostly somebody else's writing on the forms.
20:01It doesn't match Victor's signature at all.
20:03I filled them out for him.
20:05He tried to do it himself, but those boxes are pretty small and he shook a lot.
20:16Going for a victory parade.
20:18Victor said marching and it was the proudest moment of his life.
20:24Why would he keep it and watch it over and over if he hated the army?
20:28Did Paul visit him much?
20:29Oh yeah, three or four times a week.
20:31He was really good about it.
20:33So how come he didn't?
20:34He couldn't.
20:35Paul would say the fucking army stole your life, Vic.
20:38And Vic would keep his mouth shut.
20:40I can tell you this, Victor wanted to believe that what he did in the Gulf meant something.
20:46That his life was not a waste.
20:50But hey, I only counseled the veteran.
20:52I'm not supposed to interfere with what the family wants.
20:54So you taped his medals to his chest, fished his files out of the trash and passed them on to
20:57me?
20:58Well, you can always blow it off.
21:00I mean, you didn't even know the guy, right?
21:11What are you doing?
21:14There was a form that said he's getting a military funeral.
21:16Who authorized this, Nate?
21:18Uh, yeah.
21:19God damn it, how many times have I told you when Nate gives you instructions you were to check with
21:23me first?
21:23Turn them off.
21:25I'll drive him to the crematorium right now.
21:29Do I have to do it myself?
21:32Fucking Nate.
21:33Paul Kovitch is who our contract is with.
21:35And if he finds out about this, he will either sue us or break our legs.
21:44Right, it's right there.
21:49Wow.
21:52Look who's here.
21:53Hello, Mrs. Fisher.
21:55Hello, dear.
21:57Hello, I'm Brenda.
22:00Hiram Gunderson.
22:01I understand you like to camp.
22:04Why, yes, I do.
22:08I wish I could tell you where Nate is, but I have no idea.
22:11It's okay, I can't exist without him.
22:16Toast and sesame seeds in the salon?
22:18Yes, that would be lovely.
22:29There's my little girl, Claire, honey.
22:31This is Hiram Gunderson.
22:35Pleasure to meet you, Claire.
22:40This is delicious, Mrs. Fisher.
22:43Hiram is a chef.
22:44Oh.
22:55I can't get enough of his cock.
23:07I can't get enough of his cock.
23:15And confront fear and get in touch with your most basic self.
23:21It looks good on your college application.
23:23Sorry I'm late.
23:24It was this major accident at the Long Beach Freeway.
23:26You always seem to hit the bad traffic.
23:28Yeah.
23:28Hi, I'm Nate.
23:29Hiram, I've heard a lot about you.
23:31Well, don't believe a word of it.
23:33Hey, sorry.
23:35Don't be.
23:36I'm having fun.
23:38So, what did I miss?
23:39I want to go to Sierra Crossroads.
23:41We'll talk about it later, Claire.
23:43Oh, Mom, you should let her go.
23:45Crossroads is great.
23:46You went?
23:46Yeah, we went kayaking down the Colorado River this summer.
23:49I was just, what, 17?
23:50I don't think you were even born yet.
23:51I don't remember this.
23:56That's because I lied to you and Dad.
23:59I knew Dad had never let me go, so I told you I was going to Sacramento for three days
24:02to witness state government in action.
24:08Oh, by the way, everyone, I got a job.
24:13Cool.
24:14I'll be working at Nikolai's flower shop.
24:16I start tomorrow.
24:17It's just part-time.
24:20You didn't tell me about that.
24:21Didn't I?
24:24Need some help?
24:27Incidentally, Nate, I dropped Victor Kovach off at the Oak Valley Crematory.
24:30I need you to pick him up first thing tomorrow.
24:32Oh, fuck, David.
24:33He wanted a military funeral.
24:34He filled out the forms.
24:35Was he paying our bill?
24:37You were there with his brother.
24:39It was clear he did not want the body embalmed.
24:41He could sue us and we wouldn't have a case.
24:43Okay, you know what?
24:44When you talk to me like this, it makes me want to not listen to a thing you say.
24:48You and I could lose everything.
24:50Mom could lose her home.
24:52You know, Vic is eligible for a much bigger burial allowance from the VA than we thought.
24:56Really?
24:58I'm leaving.
24:59I'll walk you down.
25:02Hi, David.
25:03Hi.
25:06Why don't you come over?
25:08Spend the night.
25:08I can't.
25:09I've got to be in Pasadena tomorrow morning and add an extra hour to my trip.
25:13Okay.
25:17Give me five minutes.
25:18I'll follow you.
25:23Tonight wasn't so bad, was it?
25:26I suppose not.
25:28I don't know why I was so nervous.
25:31I mean, for heaven's sake, I gave birth to those people.
25:41You know what occurred to me tonight that's really strange?
25:45I wish you'd known my husband.
25:48I think the two of you would have liked each other.
25:59Who would get me a gift basket?
26:01It's probably some Hollywood bigwig you were kind of secretly wants to sleep with you.
26:06It's from my brother.
26:08And it is addressed to both of us.
26:14Sorry about this morning.
26:15Have fun at Cactus World.
26:17Oh, who knows?
26:18Well, this is nice.
26:20We can take it with us this weekend.
26:21I cannot wait to get out of here.
26:23I'm in dire need of some serious relaxation.
26:26Oh, fabulous.
26:29Smoked oysters?
26:30Really?
26:30Is there any caviar?
26:32No, but there are condoms.
26:36And, okay, edible underpants.
26:39That's a little scary.
26:41I'd say this whole thing is a little scary.
26:42No, it just means he likes you.
26:44Believe me, there are guys Billy didn't like.
26:46It's much better this way.
26:49I've, uh, meaning to ask you, what's up with those matching tattoos you have?
26:54We're in Vegas.
26:56We're very drunk.
26:58And, oh dear.
27:00These things have always struck me as kind of ridiculous.
27:03Just stop that.
27:06What does he think we're going to do with this?
27:08Brenda, this is, like, hostile.
27:10Look, Billy's bipolar.
27:12He's medicated.
27:13Sense of what's appropriate can be a little off at times.
27:18Look, you have no idea what he's been through.
27:22Don't judge him, please.
27:25All right.
27:28All right.
27:57You're never going to work your way out of this one, soldier.
27:59I was nowhere near the latrine, sir.
28:01I promise.
28:02Give it up, Private.
28:03Your ass is busted.
28:04Yeah, you're in big trouble.
28:06But my father's on the Joint Chiefs of Staff.
28:08Well, maybe we can't court-martial you, but there is something else we can do.
28:16Come on, Private.
28:17Yeah.
28:19You do love that, don't you?
28:24Hello?
28:25David, Walter Kriegenfaller.
28:27Did you meet with Father Clark?
28:29Yes, today.
28:30We'd like to meet at 9.30 tomorrow and vote.
28:33Can you make it?
28:34Absolutely.
28:35Let me ask you a question, David.
28:39Do you think Clark is gay?
28:45Uh, I don't think so.
28:46He mentioned something about having a deceased wife.
28:49I mean, I don't care if he is.
28:51I just don't want him to push that agenda.
28:54You know, marriage, that whole thing.
28:57I have a cousin in D.C. whose church split because of that.
29:01Literally half the congregation left.
29:03I don't want to see that happen to St. Bards.
29:06I've been going there for 40 years.
29:09Well, it's late.
29:11I'll see you tomorrow morning.
29:12Good night.
29:30Okay, I got Victor, but I called the National Cemetery from the car.
29:34And you know what? They can bury and earn.
29:35They call it in-earnment. We can do it today at three.
29:38Why are you so determined to sabotage our business?
29:40I don't think Paul ever knew how his brother really felt.
29:43Nate, why do you even care?
29:45Because it's what Victor wanted.
29:47And he deserves it. He got a raw fucking deal.
29:49I'm telling you, Victor Kovic did not hate the army.
29:50You just watched these tapes he made in the Gulf.
29:56Yes, sir. Fuck me, Sergeant.
29:58Oh, fuck yeah.
29:59Don't be private. Give it to me.
30:00Take it.
30:01Come on. Come on.
30:03How's it funny?
30:04I have some place I have to be.
30:06Dave, Dave, it's okay. I watch porn too.
30:25It's just too much reading.
30:34So you guys taking the PSAT this afternoon too?
30:38Uh, yeah.
30:46So what happens to you guys?
30:50I go to UC Irvine and Northwestern Law, meet a totally great guy. He's a triathlete.
30:55We get married and I practice law for eight years and we get really rich and then I have two
31:00great kids.
31:02So you're like unbelievably happy?
31:04Kind of.
31:05I get a master's in French and then live in Paris for six months. And hate it. So I come
31:11back, become a TV development executive and I work out all the time.
31:15I'm fairly miserable and have a slight substance abuse problem.
31:18But you look great.
31:21Thanks.
31:22I started an interior lighting design firm with my college roommate and it totally takes off.
31:26And then I die of ovarian cancer before I'm 30.
31:30Oh, that sucks.
31:31Tell me about it.
31:44Well, good luck.
31:48What a freak.
31:55Father Jack?
31:56David, come in, sit.
32:00And call me Jack. We'll be on that.
32:03Meeting over already?
32:05Yes.
32:08Damn.
32:10We all admire Clark's energy, but there is some concern that he may end up being divisive.
32:15As you said yourself, if we have to go back and start over from the beginning...
32:18And find some conservative lapdog who won't challenge anybody?
32:22Yeah, that's what we need here.
32:28Scotch?
32:29Oh, no, thank you.
32:32Clark thought he came on a little too strong with you.
32:34I liked him, Jack.
32:35I think the world would be a better place if there were more men like him.
32:37I just don't think that he's a good fit for St. Bart's.
32:40Do you really think that Father Clark would be happy here?
32:43Why should he be happy?
32:45How happy are you?
32:50You're right, I'm not happy.
32:52My life is very complicated and confusing.
32:54I've experienced a lot of loss recently, my father and my...
33:00And the one thing that helps me to deal with it is having a place that hasn't changed,
33:03like everything else in my life.
33:05There's a reason they call it a sanctuary.
33:17I think the majority of our congregation feels the same way,
33:20and my responsibility is to them, not you.
33:24Well, I've got a business to run.
33:39Yo.
33:41Speaking.
33:47Yes.
33:49What can I do for you, Mr. Gilardi?
33:53Here, this is good choice here.
33:55I don't like yellow.
33:58The bridesmaid's dresses are lilac.
33:59If the flowers are yellow, it's going to look like an Easter egg hunt.
34:02How about white tulips?
34:05Very simple.
34:06Just bunched together with a ribbon.
34:08I was kind of thinking I would be the only one with white flowers.
34:10Or you could be the only one holding a gorgeous bouquet of color against your white dress.
34:16People do that?
34:17It's your day.
34:18You can do whatever you want.
34:20Don't you think that would be pretty?
34:22I love the tulips thing.
34:24Tulips are one of my favorite flowers.
34:26So graceful and classic.
34:28Like little ballerinas.
34:34The only reason I even met Victor was I jumped off a Humvee and broke my feet.
34:39Here I am in the hospital with this guy who's dying, it turns out, listening to me complain.
34:43Playing cards, giving me his dessert.
34:46I wish he didn't die.
34:48It sucks.
34:54Have you heard from Paul yet?
34:56Not since I told him his brother was ready to be picked up.
34:58Well, without his consent in writing, I cannot allow this funeral to take place.
35:02Fine.
35:03At least we'll know we made an effort.
35:06When we were in the Gulf, Victor used to make these videotapes to send home to his family.
35:10We were always giving him a hard time.
35:13Messing him up.
35:14He was a real good sport.
35:17The perpetual...
35:19Is my brother ready?
35:20Yes, he's right in here.
35:23What is this?
35:24Victor's friends wanted to say goodbye.
35:26The hospital referred them.
35:27It's no problem for us.
35:28And no charge to you.
35:30Excuse me, are you his brother?
35:31Yes, I'm Paul.
35:34This man here, I don't know if you people know it, was like a lion for Victor.
35:38He made federal waves over Victor's disability case.
35:47I found a couple pictures of us playing baseball.
35:50Vic was a lousy batter, but a pretty good infielder.
35:55He's grinning like such a fool in these.
35:59I thought you might like him.
36:05Glad of you.
36:06Yeah.
36:08You sick?
36:10No.
36:11Never got sick.
36:12I don't know why.
36:13A lot of guys I knew over there did.
36:16Yeah.
36:18Thanks.
36:19Thank you for letting Victor have his military burial.
36:22Even though I know you were against it.
36:25I'm sure this means a lot to him.
36:29What the fuck is this military burial shit?
36:31It's an option that can easily be canceled at no charge to you.
36:35Victor didn't want a military funeral.
36:36I told you that.
36:37You think I'm lying to you?
36:37I think he was afraid to tell you what he wanted.
36:40He filled out those forms, Paul.
36:42He kept the videos.
36:43They filled out those forms.
36:44This is all fucking army PR.
36:46And I threw those forms in the trash.
36:47I'll call the service off right now.
36:49He kept Saudi Arabian candy for 10 years.
36:51You just want to jack up your price.
36:52No, it's paid for.
36:55I just want your brother to have the funeral he wanted for himself because that's his right.
37:00Victor wanted to believe he died for something.
37:01You really want to take that away from him?
37:07Jesus.
37:11He's the only family I had left.
37:14And he can't even tell me what he wants when he's dead.
37:22He thought I would have talked him out of this.
37:25And he's right.
37:25I would have.
37:30Why don't you sit with his friends?
37:41I'd have to have you here.
37:43I'd have to have you here.
37:56I'd have to have you here.
38:13Where is Ruth?
38:14She's in the back, crying.
38:27What is wrong?
38:30It's the smell of the flowers.
38:32You get used to it.
38:34I am used to it.
38:37Today, I help people choose flowers for weddings, for anniversaries, for new babies.
38:45I can't remember being surrounded by so much happiness.
38:48I'm used to the smell of flowers, meaning something completely different.
38:52I'm used to people crying and being exhausted, people being shattered.
38:58Do not worry.
38:59We get funerals, too.
39:03I'm so happy.
39:04I can't wait to come back tomorrow.
39:10You're not going to be like this every day, though, right?
39:13I'm so happy.
39:14I don't care.
39:15I don't care.
39:31I don't care.
39:54This flag is presented on behalf of a grateful nation
39:57as a token of our appreciation for honorable and faithful services
40:00rendered by your loved ones.
40:16Give it to one of his friends.
40:41I love you, David.
40:43I always will.
40:48I could get hit by a bus in the way to the desert tonight.
40:51Just wanted to make sure you knew that.
40:56I love you, too.
41:01You did the right thing today.
41:03I know.
41:04Feels kind of good, doesn't it?
41:05You did the right thing.
41:34You did the right thing.
41:34I'm Westwood.
41:37Sometimes she gives me her eyes, okay?
41:39Because sometimes I go blind.
41:42Forty-six hours I've been looking at these pictures
41:45and sometimes I see amazing things
41:47and sometimes I just see shapes
41:49and that's when I go blind.
41:52Because what if I lost the ability to tell the difference?
41:56For real.
41:58For good.
41:59You won't.
42:00You say that and then you give me your eyes,
42:01but what if one day I can give them back to you?
42:04Well, that won't happen.
42:05We won't let that happen.
42:12Ah, God, this is crap.
42:14This is pretentious, derivative crap.
42:17Well, then, that's one last you have to consider.
42:19Right?
42:22Right.
42:26Billy, I'm going to go talk to Nate on the porch, okay?
42:30All right, and then he's going to go away.
42:32We'll be right outside.
42:35Pick out five you like
42:36and you can show them to me when I come back.
42:38Only five?
42:39Or ten or twenty.
42:41And, uh, I'll look at them
42:43and I'll tell you what I see.
42:44Okay.
42:50You can fuck her some other time.
43:05Sorry.
43:06I was obviously off his meds.
43:08Oh, intentionally?
43:09No.
43:09Happens occasionally.
43:11It's been a while.
43:12Oh, Brenda, come on.
43:13Sorry, Nate, I can't.
43:16I'm all he has when he's like this.
43:18You are letting him manipulate you.
43:20You don't know him.
43:22You don't know what he's doing.
43:23Well, I know he didn't like me
43:24and I have a feeling he doesn't like any man in your life.
43:26Am I right?
43:28Answer me!
43:28What, you think I fucked my brother?
43:32Jesus, I never said that.
43:33Nate, he's sick.
43:35He's my brother and he's sick
43:36and he needs me.
43:37This is who I am.
43:39This is what you get.
43:42Fuck you.
43:48You have no idea
43:50how much I wanted to go with you.
43:55Can I do anything to help?
43:56Yeah.
43:57You can go to the desert
43:59and sit in mud
44:00and relax
44:01and forget about everything.
44:04Including this.
44:09Oh, shit.
44:11Just go.
44:12Okay?
44:12God damn it.
44:29I'm not going to go.
44:30I'm not going to go.
44:30I'm not going to go.
44:30I'm not going to go.
44:31I'm not going to go.
44:32I'm not going to go.
44:32You
