00:00There's room for dessert.
00:14How come Uncle Danny doesn't like clean peaches?
00:17Clean peaches. Not clean. As in cling stone.
00:21And who says Uncle Danny doesn't like clean peaches?
00:23Uncle Danny loves clean peaches. He just can't have any.
00:26Why can't he have any?
00:27Because he has the diabetes.
00:30Hit me. Hit me again.
00:32Did you just have that plum tree in the backyard?
00:34Again.
00:34It wasn't a plum tree.
00:36It was nectarines of nectarines.
00:39Are you sure it was nectarines? I thought it was plums.
00:42First thing that goes is the memory.
00:47Well, I made him for Christmas. Just like him.
00:51I made her a capon, but she still didn't like that everybody else was eating ham.
00:55I so like her. Her daughter got a tattoo. She said, I don't have a daughter.
00:59I remember.
01:02How could anyone say that, that they don't have a daughter?
01:04She's so vindictive.
01:06Nothing was ever good enough of her.
01:08Oh my God, it was so sweet.
01:10She's a big girl.
01:11No, she got her stomach staple.
01:12She did that?
01:13Yeah, she lost almost 200 pounds.
01:15No kidding.
01:15Yeah, she got married.
01:17She did.
01:17She married a foot doctor.
01:19She was so sweet.
01:20Yeah, and then she married a foot doctor.
01:21I went to the foot doctor.
01:23For your corns.
01:23For my bone spur.
01:25You had a bone spur?
01:26Painful like you would not believe.
01:28Did you get the surgery?
01:29They did.
01:30Doctors.
01:31What they can't do today.
01:33Staple your stomach, shave off a bone spur.
01:38To youracs.
01:43I'm so inhuman.
01:45You're king ghost.
01:47You're between me and my girl.
01:54You're the king, you're king died sir.
02:03What are you guys doing?
02:05I'm so interested in spending time.
02:05You're fantastic.
02:05You're welcome.
02:22That was lovely.
02:25Wasn't it?
02:26Mm-hmm.
02:34I know how hard this has been on you.
02:37I know you.
02:38I want to make it up to you.
02:40You don't have to make anything up to me.
02:42I want to try to close this distance between us.
02:45What distance?
02:47I think we should travel.
02:49Travel?
02:50George, you're not well.
02:53No, I'm feeling much, much better.
02:55Where on earth would we travel to?
02:58Anywhere we wanted to.
03:00Anywhere the wind blows us.
03:03Could we talk about it another time?
03:07Yeah.
03:08Sure.
03:10Of course.
03:31You know, I was thinking about inviting Maggie over sometime.
03:35What for?
03:36She's new in town.
03:37She doesn't really know anybody except for George, my mother.
03:40I don't know.
03:41I think you'd like her.
03:42Okay.
03:43I need to go party.
03:46Oh, well, I am running a little late, so Mommy will take you.
03:49Okay?
03:53Maya, do you remember your other Mommy?
03:57What are you doing?
03:58Just asking her an honest question.
04:01It's important that we're honest with her, that she grows up with a coherent narrative,
04:06that she understands where she came from and how I came into the picture.
04:10Well, I am all for her growing up with a coherent narrative, but I think that we have to pick
04:15the right time to start telling this particular story.
04:18I mean, don't you think?
04:19I need to go party.
04:22What better time than the present?
04:24Well, how about after she makes potty, for starters?
04:26Okay.
04:27Come on, Mommy's going to take you to make potty.
04:38Why should we call Mary?
04:41No, we don't want to pressure her.
04:43Pressure?
04:44We just inseminated her.
04:46Has she tried to call you?
04:47You inseminated her, okay?
04:49Well, not personally, I didn't.
04:51Has she tried to call you on your cell phone?
04:53Keith, relax.
04:54I'm sure if she was pregnant, we'd be the first people she called.
05:01I'm not sure I want to do this.
05:03Do what?
05:05Go to this adoption fair.
05:08First of all, it's not a fair, it's a picnic.
05:11Second of all, we have to.
05:12Sissy Pasquese went through a lot of trouble to get us moved up the list.
05:16This just seems weird.
05:18Weird how?
05:20Like we're going to look at puppies.
05:23We're not going to look at puppies.
05:25We don't know if Mary is even pregnant, or ever will get pregnant.
05:29Besides, we always agreed we'd keep moving forward on both prongs of the two-pronged approach until one of the
05:34prongs pays off.
05:40Look at this.
05:41You know what we look like?
05:44Homos.
05:46He wanted to be cremated.
05:48No, he didn't.
05:48We had a conversation.
05:50He was my brother.
05:51He was my brother, too.
05:52And if Carl says he wanted to be cremated, that's what we're going to do.
05:55Over my dead body.
05:56Fine with me.
05:57Can we please take it down a notch?
05:58She was always difficult.
05:59You leave her alone.
06:01Is there something in your faith that might provide us with some guidelines?
06:04We have no faith.
06:06We did when we were children.
06:07This is America.
06:08Since when do we have to have a faith in order to bury our brother?
06:11I didn't mean to imply, sir.
06:12We're Catholic, but lapsed.
06:13You might be lapsed.
06:14Vera and I still go to Mass every Sunday.
06:17It's a waste of time.
06:18There is no God.
06:19All I know is Danny did not want to be cremated.
06:22He did.
06:22He told me himself six months ago at bingo.
06:25He told you he wanted to be cremated at bingo?
06:28Look, I think what we all need to do is take a collective deep breath and try to be honest
06:33about what we think Daniel would have wanted.
06:37Not what we might want.
06:47I feel like everyone's here just to scope out the most adorable kid.
06:51And they're all adorable on the surface.
06:53All these kids have gone through some serious damaging shit in their lives.
06:57Like we haven't?
06:58This whole thing's a little weird, don't you think?
07:01It's just kids playing.
07:03It's not.
07:04They're acutely aware that they're being observed like some animals in a zoo.
07:11Hey.
07:12What about her?
07:15She's adorable, but she's surrounded.
07:17We've got to get in there.
07:39Hi.
07:41Hi.
07:44You keep getting sand in your shoes?
07:46That's why I hate sandboxes so much.
07:49Show me sand.
08:05Oh, thanks.
08:07I wasn't sure if you did or not.
08:10In my younger days, I did.
08:14But right now, I'm not sure it would mix so well with my meds.
08:21You could eat downstairs with us, you know.
08:25Yeah, I don't know if you've noticed, but I'm kind of trying to avoid Mom right now.
08:30Might want to take it easy on her.
08:32She's been through a lot lately.
08:34Well, that puts her in the same boat as the rest of us, doesn't it?
08:40I really like that piece.
08:43God, why is that like the one thing that people like, you know?
08:48So I tore up some photos.
08:49Who cares?
08:50It's like everybody wants that to be the one thing that I can do.
08:53I just think it's very provocative and disturbing and beautiful.
08:58Yeah.
09:00Isn't that what art's supposed to be about?
09:02Yeah.
09:03Just right now, with all this shit going on in the world, art seems kind of besides the point, you
09:08know?
09:09Yeah.
09:10I do know.
09:11Plus, I'm just not, like, inspired.
09:15The muse isn't with you.
09:16The muse isn't with you.
09:19Exactly, George.
09:21George, here you are.
09:23You had me so worried.
09:25I'm fine.
09:26What on earth are you doing up here?
09:29I'm just hanging out.
09:32Do you need me for something?
09:33No, I just wanted to know where you were.
09:37You left your laundry in the dryer.
09:39Sorry.
09:40Is that my food?
09:43That's from the fridge.
09:45The family fridge?
09:46Yeah, so?
09:47I'm coming down.
09:48No, don't, please.
09:49Stay here.
09:54Your phone's ringing.
09:56I know.
09:59I just thought, you know, maybe you were too strong.
10:09Hello?
10:14I've never been in one of these before, have you?
10:18This is fun, huh?
10:19Uh-huh.
10:24You know something?
10:25If I don't stop doing this, I think I'm going to throw up.
10:33Are you okay?
10:35Yeah, just a little queasy, that's all.
10:38There's no way you could ever be an astronaut.
10:42Why not?
10:43Because you can't throw up if you want to be an astronaut.
10:47I never really thought about it that way, but I guess you're right.
10:51My mom's coming back to get me.
10:54She is?
10:55As soon as she gets out of rehab.
10:57That's in six more weeks.
11:02I couldn't break through the gauntlet.
11:05This is Anthony.
11:06Hi, Anthony.
11:08Anthony, this is Keith.
11:09Hi.
11:11Anthony's not up for adoption.
11:13You're not?
11:13No.
11:14My mom's coming back to get me.
11:17Good for you.
11:20The moon balance make you hurl?
11:22No.
11:23Almost.
11:24Yeah, he gets motion sickness.
11:26He can never be an astronaut.
11:28No way.
11:36Excuse me.
11:37Hi, yeah.
11:37I'm sorry to bother you, but your kid was picking on my kid during recess.
11:41Excuse me?
11:42Tell her.
11:43He pushed me down in the bathroom and tried to take my Yu-Gi-Oh! backpack.
11:47No, that can't be true.
11:49He must have Julio mixed up with some other kid.
11:51No, he said it was your kid.
11:53That's not true, is it, Julio?
11:54Because you would never do something like that, would you?
11:57Your kid made a mistake, you see?
11:58It was him!
11:59He just said he didn't do it.
12:01He did, and he's lying!
12:02My son doesn't lie.
12:04Julio?
12:04I didn't do it.
12:06He said he didn't do it.
12:07That's good enough for me.
12:08He did it!
12:08So what?
12:09It was just a stupid game.
12:20Hey.
12:22Hey, thanks for coming.
12:24Okay.
12:26Yeah, sure.
12:26How are you?
12:28I'm good.
12:30Yeah?
12:30I'm good, too.
12:32I'm back on my meds.
12:35Oh, good enough.
12:40Is there some specific reason you could tell me that on the phone?
12:44Yeah.
12:44Yeah, I just needed to see him.
12:48I could use some closure.
12:50That's all.
12:51Okay.
12:53Should we order?
12:54I'm not really hungry.
12:58Yeah, me neither.
13:06Is that it?
13:07Have we achieved closure?
13:09Yeah.
13:11I guess.
13:11I just...
13:12What?
13:13I just want you to know that I still care about you.
13:17Okay.
13:17I think I know that.
13:20Do you still care about me?
13:22Yeah, of course I still care about you, but we're broken up now.
13:26Of course we are.
13:30Can I give you a hug?
13:33Sure.
13:42Okay.
13:43I'm going now.
13:44Oh, right.
13:45Can I walk you to your car?
13:47No.
13:51All right.
13:52I'm just going to stay here and have a piece of pie.
13:55Bye.
13:56Bye.
14:08Bye.
14:11Hello?
14:13Uh...
14:14Oh, I'm just here to pick up my dad.
14:15Oh, cool.
14:16Uh, he's upstairs.
14:17Great.
14:18Here for a mint?
14:19You know, buy them in bulk.
14:22No thanks.
14:23Yeah.
14:24Hey, uh, would you like to come over for dinner tomorrow night?
14:28Here?
14:29Uh, no, at my place.
14:30I mean, our place.
14:30Brenda and Maya and me, I mean.
14:33Okay.
14:34Good.
14:35I'd like that.
14:35All right.
14:36We're here.
14:37With the food.
14:39Ah.
14:40Uh.
14:40Okay, well, tomorrow then.
14:42Yeah.
14:42Yeah.
14:44Food?
14:45Who said anything about food?
14:46The cold cuts for during the viewing.
14:47Danny would have wanted there to be food.
14:49So we brought cold cuts.
14:50And bacon-wrapped handballs.
14:52It's what he would have wanted.
14:54Well, of course.
14:55Fine.
14:56Where do we put them?
14:57Uh, downstairs in the refrigerator.
14:58Oh, but, uh, wait.
14:59You have to let me take those.
15:00I'll put them down there.
15:02Hang on.
15:03It's okay.
15:04He doesn't even want to be adopted.
15:06Well, of course he's going to say that.
15:07He's got to protect himself from further rejection.
15:10I just thought he was special.
15:13Not retarded special.
15:17You connected with him, too, you know.
15:19He has serious problems, David.
15:20You liked him.
15:21You know you did.
15:22He was kind of cute.
15:23He was, wasn't he?
15:24Yeah, in a fucked up with serious problems kind of way.
15:27I want him.
15:28Are you serious?
15:29I think we could give him a happy childhood.
15:31We can't undo anything that's already happened to him.
15:33You know that.
15:34Yes, I know that.
15:35It's not going to change anything that's already happened to you, either.
15:39I know that, too.
15:43I just think it's doable.
15:53What are you doing here?
15:55I heard Uyo got into some trouble at school today.
15:58What did you hear that from?
15:59I'm on the carnival planning committee.
16:01One of the moms told me about it.
16:03I thought I'd stop by to see if I could help.
16:05Since when are you on the carnival planning committee?
16:07I don't see them every day at home.
16:09You think it's important that I be involved at school?
16:11It's fine.
16:11I can handle it.
16:12What happened?
16:13He picked on one of the other boys.
16:15For no reason?
16:16It's no big deal.
16:18I'm sure it's no big deal.
16:20It's like us sleeping together.
16:21It's no big deal, right?
16:22Let's just pretend like it never happened.
16:24It's just boys being boys, Rico.
16:26Yeah.
16:26Where is he?
16:27I want to talk to him.
16:27It's late.
16:28He's in bed.
16:28They're both in bed.
16:29You know, when I was a kid, when I got into some trouble, my old man took a belt to
16:32me.
16:32It was a good thing you're not your old man.
16:34Can I come in?
16:34No, you cannot come in.
16:36Not tonight, Rico.
16:37No, I'm taking care of this.
16:38Go home.
16:49Did she sleep?
16:51Yeah.
17:02I want to talk about what happened this morning.
17:05Okay.
17:08First of all, it made me angry that you would say that to her without us talking about it
17:12first.
17:15You're right.
17:19I am sorry.
17:22But, Nate, it's always better to acknowledge the truth.
17:24Yes.
17:25I am all in favor of being honest with her about where she came from and who she is.
17:30I just think that we should follow her lead on this one.
17:33When she's old enough to start asking those questions, then we'll answer them.
17:36But, Nate, just because she doesn't have the language to ask the questions doesn't mean
17:40that she isn't mentally capable of asking them.
17:42Right.
17:43I just think that you're going to confuse her.
17:45Okay.
17:45Listen.
17:45One day, she's going to find out that I'm not her biological mother.
17:49Now, I'm trying to avoid that moment of horrible explanation.
17:52Well, there doesn't have to be a horrible moment of anything.
17:54Kids need to know their own stories.
17:56It's how they integrate their sense of self.
17:57You need to know everything.
17:58There is such a thing as too much information.
18:00You, of all people, should know that.
18:02Okay.
18:02So, I grew up with parents who had no boundaries.
18:05You grew up with parents that had nothing but boundaries.
18:07Do you really think that was so much better?
18:08I just don't want you throwing some shit at her from some book that you haven't even finished
18:11reading yet.
18:13She's my daughter, and I get to decide that much.
18:24It's gotten so bad, I can't even stand to sit at the dinner table with him.
18:28Relationships change.
18:29They do.
18:30They do.
18:31Does he bite his fork?
18:32I had a boyfriend once who bit his fork, and it so gave me the chills.
18:36No, he doesn't bite his fork.
18:38He's not being abusive in any way, is he?
18:40No, no, no.
18:41He just insists on talking about everything, all the time.
18:44I can't stand the sound of his voice.
18:46It's like fingernails on a blackboard.
18:48You know, I know what this is.
18:51What?
18:52A friend of mine nursed her husband through cancer a few years ago, and when he was cured,
18:57she was done.
18:59With him?
19:00Mm-hmm.
19:00It wasn't his fault.
19:02It wasn't her fault.
19:03She was just done.
19:06You know, we were talking about going to Tangier for a little something.
19:11You want to come?
19:12Yep.
19:13I can't.
19:14I have to go home and fix dinner for George.
19:16Oh, Ruth, you need to do things for yourself every now and then.
19:20It's important.
19:21Care of the self.
19:22It is.
19:24It is.
19:28Okay.
19:33I had a dream about Anthony last night.
19:36See, I knew he got to you.
19:39He kept putting blankets on top of me.
19:41Each one weighed like a ton.
19:42My ribs felt like they were going to break and I couldn't breathe.
19:46Oh.
19:47Well, at least he made an impression.
19:56Hello.
19:57Guess who's pregnant?
19:59You are?
20:00That's right.
20:01I'm having your guys' baby.
20:03Mary's pregnant.
20:05She is?
20:06At first, I thought I was just late, but now I'm really late.
20:09Plus, I've been craving carne asada.
20:11And you know what that means.
20:13Well, maybe you don't, but I do.
20:14Should I tell him we're happy?
20:16I guess so.
20:17I mean, yeah.
20:18David and I are both very excited.
20:20Me too.
20:22I mean, at the very least, this means I can start having sex with my husband again.
20:25He will be so fucking happy.
20:26Yay!
20:27Listen, I gotta go.
20:28I got diarrhea like you would not believe.
20:30Which, by the way, is also a very positive sign.
20:33But I'll call you guys later, okay?
20:34Okay.
20:35Hey, Mary.
20:35Mary?
20:39Wow.
20:41We're gonna be dads.
20:43What about Anthony?
20:47Anthony?
20:49Well, somebody else will find him.
20:52Look, except for Taylor.
20:53We really don't have much experience with kids.
20:56Listen, I think taking on more than one right now would be, uh...
20:58Would be crazy.
21:01Do you disagree?
21:04No, I don't.
21:21Hello?
21:26Claire?
21:27Yeah.
21:28Uh, hi, it's Margaret.
21:29Margaret Chenoweth.
21:31Oh, hi.
21:33Listen, I hate to call you like this, but there's a serious problem with Billy.
21:37Oh, is he okay?
21:39Well, perhaps it'd be better if we spoke in person.
21:42Um, okay.
21:45I just want to apologize to the both of you for my son's behavior.
21:50Well, your wife wasn't very apologetic.
21:52Well, then I apologize for her behavior as well.
21:55You see, my wife and I are separated, so as you can imagine, this has been a difficult time for
21:59Julio.
22:00Of course.
22:02And my wife has been on antidepressants, so she's been a little lax on doling out discipline.
22:08Plus, she was dating this guy who, like back in high school, was a total pothead.
22:11And for all I know, it still is.
22:14And I just think that all this stuff at home has contributed to Julio acting out with your son.
22:18And I've already talked to Julio, and he would like to apologize to your son.
22:22Tomorrow morning, before school, if that's okay.
22:25Yeah, yeah, that would be lovely.
22:29Well, I wish we had more fathers like you in this school.
22:31Yeah, well, I'm a funeral director.
22:33And perhaps that's why I'm a little better at dealing with people than my wife.
22:36Well, my almost ex-wife.
22:42So, do you think that it's our impending divorce that's causing Julio to, you know, misbehave?
22:52I suppose it's possible.
22:54Thank you for being honest with me.
22:58You know, there's some other things that have been going on as well.
23:04Frankie Yankovic was his favorite.
23:06Frankie Yankovic was not his favorite.
23:08He was his favorite.
23:09He had all his records.
23:10All of them.
23:11Herbie Hancock was his favorite.
23:13He wanted Herbie Hancock playing at his funeral.
23:16He told me that years ago.
23:18Okay, look.
23:19Maybe he had two favorites.
23:20Ever think of that?
23:22Who the hell has two favorites?
23:25I have two favorites.
23:27In fact, I have at least, I don't know, three favorite songs.
23:30And my daughter, you know what her favorite color is?
23:32Blue.
23:33And green.
23:35So, here's what we're going to do.
23:36We're going to play Frankie Yankovic and Herbie Hancock.
23:39How's that?
23:43You said this was some kind of emergency.
23:46I never said emergency.
23:48Yeah, but you definitely kind of implied it.
23:51You know, Billy's harmed himself in the past.
23:54He could do it again, you know.
23:56Okay, that's not my problem.
23:58But they told me everything, Claire.
23:59And believe me, I understand.
24:01Given the family you come from, why you ended it?
24:04My family doesn't have anything to do with it.
24:06You know, Billy also told me that the sex was erratic.
24:09Now, that was his fault.
24:10And by the way, he's on a new medication with fewer side effects.
24:13But he did say that when he was able to and when he was up for it, the sex was
24:17very good.
24:18For Billy, that's really saying something.
24:20Okay, he told you about our sex?
24:22Of course he did.
24:24I'm his mother.
24:26You know, when you were with him, there was this light beyond his eyes.
24:30I haven't seen that in him since he was, I don't know, four.
24:34You were really good for him, Claire.
24:36He's better off without me.
24:38And even if he isn't, I am better off without him.
24:41What do you need from him to make this work?
24:43This isn't a negotiation.
24:45Everything is negotiable.
24:47I have a son who tried to kill himself in the past.
24:51Now, he still really loves you.
24:53And I think you still love him.
25:01Hey.
25:03Hey.
25:06How's my girl doing, huh?
25:08Yeah.
25:08You good?
25:09Yeah? You helping mommy make some dinner?
25:10Uh-huh.
25:11All right.
25:12All right.
25:15Is everything okay?
25:16Need help with anything?
25:17Yeah, you can not act like an a-hole tonight at dinner.
25:20Now, why would I act like an a-hole at dinner tonight?
25:23Because you're an a-hole last night.
25:26She's not just your daughter anymore, Nate.
25:28Do you know how offensive that was?
25:29Look, can we just put a pin in this, please?
25:31Is that okay with you?
25:31Okay, fine.
25:34Hello?
25:35Hi.
25:37Uh, yeah, I'm sure.
25:39That's fine.
25:41Positive.
25:42I'm sure.
25:43Okay?
25:45All right.
25:45We'll see you then.
25:47So, uh, we need to set an extra plate for dinner tonight.
25:50Maggie's gonna bring George.
25:52What?
25:52Was I supposed to say no to her?
26:01Pardon me?
26:02I'll take that.
26:04I should go.
26:06No, stay.
26:07Besides, I should be the one leaving.
26:13You know, Billy has a few things he needs to say to you, and who knows?
26:17You two may have more to talk about than you even realize.
26:24Honey, you be sure to call me later, okay?
26:26Let me know how it goes.
26:27Okay, Mom.
26:28I'll take this.
26:31You planned this?
26:33I just wasn't completely sure if I made myself clear yesterday.
26:39If there's ever a moment, any time in the future, whether it's in an hour or a month or a
26:46year,
26:47when you change your mind about, you know, us,
26:54I want you to know that I would be open to that.
26:56You used your mother to ambush me?
26:58It wasn't an ambush, exactly.
27:00I am so out of here.
27:02But I know, I know, I know.
27:05I just didn't want you out there in the world not knowing how I feel.
27:11Okay, I get it.
27:12I know how you feel, but that is never going to happen.
27:17You know beyond any doubt that you're never going to feel that way about me again.
27:23Pretty much, yeah.
27:34How can you know how you're going to feel in the future?
27:36How can anybody know that?
27:39God, I've got to go.
27:40Claire.
27:41To the bathroom.
27:41Claire.
27:43Don't leave.
27:44I won't.
27:45I'm just going to run to the ladies' room for a second.
27:48I'll be right back.
27:49Okay?
27:50Okay.
28:11You told him about our situation at home?
28:13Yeah.
28:14I didn't go into details, no.
28:16But he's the principal at our son's school.
28:18And he was looking for some sort of explanation for Julio's behavior.
28:22He was very concerned.
28:24He is?
28:25He said that our divorce is causing Julio to lash out.
28:27And frankly, he's surprised that it hasn't caused him more problems than it already has.
28:31He did?
28:34He was very sympathetic.
28:39It's been hard for me, Rico.
28:41The boys are getting older.
28:42I'm doing this alone.
28:45But I didn't realize there was that much of a problem.
28:48It's okay.
28:50I'm on top of it.
28:53We're on top of it.
28:57Who is at the door?
28:59Who is at this door?
29:00It's my friend Nagy.
29:02Yeah.
29:03Hey, you guys.
29:04Come on in.
29:05Hey.
29:06Oh, thank you.
29:08Mwah.
29:10George, welcome.
29:11Mwah.
29:11I hope it's okay I brought my dad.
29:12Oh, of course.
29:13You sure?
29:13Yes.
29:14Please don't talk about me like I'm not here.
29:16No, I just want to say, if Nate and I seem a little tense tonight, it has nothing to do
29:21with you.
29:22Hey, Brenda.
29:22We've been having a fight.
29:24A fight?
29:24Yes.
29:25No, we haven't been having a fight.
29:26We just had a disagreement.
29:27What about?
29:28It's about when Maya should, um...
29:31You know, Brenda, maybe we should do this when there's no company here.
29:33You're right.
29:34It's not important.
29:35But if you feel, you know, a weird energy in the air, it's us.
29:39It has nothing to do with you.
29:42Should we start on the light?
29:44Please.
29:45Father, that's a Nagy.
29:50So, if he's more or less all better, why can't you leave him?
29:54I can't do that.
29:56The way he looks at me, I just see the little boy in him, you know?
29:59That's always been my problem with men.
30:01It doesn't matter if they're 10 or 80.
30:03I see them standing there, like children in short pants.
30:09Just skinny little boys lost.
30:12Why do I always pick men with such skinny legs?
30:16I'm a horrible train wreck of a person.
30:18Oh, you are not a horrible train wreck.
30:20I am.
30:21You're not.
30:21You're human.
30:22Yeah.
30:23I don't know how much you can take.
30:24Could I have made a vow to this man?
30:26Oh, God.
30:26She feels everything so deeply.
30:29Ruth, marriage, especially to someone who is making you miserable, does not have to mean
30:33till death do you part.
30:35He's sweet and ill.
30:37He lives with me in my house and he can't even take care of himself.
30:40Well, what about his daughter Maggie?
30:41She has her own life to live.
30:45Let me tell you something.
30:47I had a friend once.
30:49A romantic friend.
30:51And he had a very bad problem with alcohol.
30:54Oh, God.
30:55So you know what I did?
30:56What?
30:57I dried him out.
30:58I called everybody I could think of.
31:01I got him a job.
31:02I got him an apartment.
31:04And when I was sure he was safe, I cut him loose.
31:09I could never do that.
31:15That was a lovely dinner, even if it was prepared under trying circumstances.
31:20It was delicious.
31:23How is she?
31:24She is out like a light.
31:26That little girl can fall asleep at the drop of a hat.
31:29Most of the time.
31:31Well, whatever you two were arguing about earlier seems to have blown over.
31:37Well, it wasn't an argument, really.
31:39We were just discussing the possibility of telling Maya that Brenda's not her biological mother.
31:43She doesn't remember Lisa?
31:46I...
31:46No, I mean, I don't know.
31:49She's barely walking.
31:50I mean, how can you know for sure?
31:52I think she's old enough to know her story.
31:55And how I came to be her mommy.
31:58You know, there's something I've always wanted to ask.
32:01Yeah.
32:02Lisa's brother-in-law, what was his name?
32:04Hoyt.
32:06Did they ever determine for certain whether or not he was involved in Lisa's death?
32:09Death.
32:10No, it's all right.
32:11It's okay.
32:15Look, with both Lisa and Hoyt dead, they don't know for sure.
32:20No one ever will.
32:22But you think you know it.
32:23Dad, I think that's enough.
32:24Yes, I'm pretty sure I know what happened.
32:27Because I think knowing what happened is really important.
32:29In fact, I think knowing what happens is crucial.
32:31I said I think I know what happened.
32:32Well, do you feel that you have closure about the whole thing?
32:34As a matter of fact, no.
32:35I don't have closure.
32:38I think we should change the subject.
32:43Oh, I'm sorry.
32:45My medication makes me feel a little wonky.
32:47And if I get a thought or a question in my head, it keeps going round and round like it's
32:51called some kind of endless loop.
32:52Sorry.
32:55It's not a problem.
33:00Here's to our baby.
33:02Yay!
33:06Is this alcoholic?
33:08No, it's just sparkling cider.
33:10Too bad.
33:10My OB-GYN says it's okay to have a glass or two of red wine up until the second trimester.
33:16Really?
33:17Listen, I don't want to worry you guys or anything, but I woke up this morning with a tiny bit
33:22of spotting, which is nothing to worry about.
33:24I spotted through all my other pregnancies.
33:27Besides, I'm still having my cravings for meat, so I just know I'm pregnant.
33:30You're sure?
33:31Spotting is par for the course.
33:34Besides, my boobs are so sore I can hardly put on a bra.
33:37That's why I'm not wearing one.
33:41Is there any more locks?
33:43Yeah.
33:46Why would you sign it if it's not a loan?
33:48It's either you sold a card and you don't understand English.
33:51Excuse me?
33:52I just said, I understand English.
33:55I just don't understand the irony.
33:56Okay.
33:58You're high in the morning, huh?
34:06Mom wants me to get a job.
34:09Can you believe that?
34:10Well, we all have to work, Claire.
34:12We all have to get a job.
34:14Why can't anyone in this family just let me fucking be?
34:21I just flashed on Maya at your age, sitting in front of the TV, feeling sorry for herself.
34:27Not caring about anything or anybody.
34:31It just broke my heart.
34:45Bye.
34:45I love you.
34:47Mr. Stiaz.
34:48Yeah?
34:48I, uh, I was wondering if I might have a word with you in my office.
34:54Sure.
34:58You don't want to know what we ended up paying.
35:00What, for the caskets?
35:01The casket is one thing.
35:03Then there's everything else on top.
35:04What, everything else?
35:05It's a list as long as my arm, you don't want to know.
35:07Maybe I don't want to know.
35:08Believe me, you don't.
35:09But that's what money is for for times like this.
35:11God bless him.
35:12He was a son of a bitch, but God bless him.
35:14Um, he looks good.
35:16Bullshit.
35:16He doesn't look good.
35:17He looks dead.
35:18He is dead.
35:20So have you guys figured out what you want to do with his remains?
35:23Carl and I want to have him cremated and scattered off the San Monica Pier.
35:26That's where he'd like to go fishing.
35:28He told me that's what he wanted.
35:29Your sister's still arguing for a plot before he's long.
35:33Tough shit.
35:36I'm hungry.
35:37Let's lose some handballs before they're all laid up.
35:43No offense, pal, but your family is a bunch of fucked up control freaks.
35:47Who's is it?
35:50I wish you could just tell me what you want.
35:52You're asking me what I want?
35:55Yeah.
35:55It's your funeral.
35:56For 20 years, nobody ever asked me anything.
36:01This is what I want.
36:04I want Maya to have a mummy.
36:17George.
36:19I've been thinking about it a lot.
36:22And I think I want us to move out.
36:26Move out of the house?
36:27Yes, I think it would be best.
36:28For both of us.
36:30This house is too full of bad memories.
36:32I think we need to make a fresh start.
36:36We could make a fresh start.
36:38Leave all our troubles behind us.
36:40That's right.
36:45What on earth do you think you're doing?
36:48Just getting some food.
36:49Get out of here.
36:50I'm trying to have a private conversation with my husband.
36:52Get out.
36:53Go get a job.
36:54Leave now.
37:03I made us an appointment to look at a place near Park La Brea.
37:09That's within walking distance of the museums.
37:11And the farmer's market.
37:15Do you really want a new beginning?
37:18Because nothing would make me happier.
37:31Mary.
37:31Sorry I didn't buzz, but some old lady was coming out the front, so I just slipped inside.
37:37Okay, are you guys sitting down?
37:40Uh, I am.
37:41What?
37:42What's wrong?
37:43I got my period.
37:44Just about ten minutes ago.
37:45I came right over to let you know.
37:47But you took a test.
37:50Didn't you?
37:51No.
37:52I'm really sorry, you guys.
37:54But actually, it's probably a good thing, because I did just get a new set of x-rays at the
37:58dentist last week.
37:59Can I use your bathroom?
38:15Well?
38:17You still want to adopt Anthony?
38:26You told our son, school principal, that I was dating a drug addict?
38:30I never said drug addict.
38:32But I said it was pothead.
38:33Kenny never even tried the stuff, Rico.
38:35That was his sister.
38:36And it was in high school.
38:37And I stopped seeing him months ago.
38:40I just...
38:40And you also told him that I was on antidepressants?
38:42I said it was.
38:42You told him everything about us, Rico.
38:44I didn't tell him everything.
38:45He wanted to know if the trouble with the babysitter involved any molestation.
38:50I was like, what babysitter?
38:51He said he was required by law to report it to the police.
38:54But then he wanted to give me an opportunity to do it first.
38:56I never told him molestation.
38:58I said there was an incident.
38:59And there was.
39:00You didn't show up to get him.
39:03What the fuck, Rico?
39:06I thought it would be helpful to bring Mr. Schumacher into the loop of our family situation.
39:10And he never said that Julio's problems at school were caused by us being separated.
39:15I was just trying to do what's best for Julio, Vanessa.
39:17You're full of shit.
39:20You know, lately I was thinking there might be a chance that we would get back together.
39:23But boy, do I need my fucking head examined.
39:28I can't believe I've ever married a fucking embalmer.
39:44Hey.
39:45Hey.
39:46What's work?
39:47Is it okay?
39:49Where's Maya?
39:51Well, she's in my closet putting stuffed kitties in all my shoes.
39:56Hmm.
40:00Brenda, I'm sorry.
40:06I'm sorry.
40:10Now, what am I supposed to tell her?
40:11That her real mommy got pregnant and maybe trapped me into marrying her?
40:17That she was fucking her brother-in-law and he might have murdered her because she tried to break it
40:20off?
40:23That he might even be her real dad?
40:27And I just wanted to spare her that, you know?
40:31I don't want to spare me that.
40:34Oh, God, Nate.
40:35I didn't even think of any of that.
40:50You know, we can be honest with Maya about Lisa being a mother without having to go through every detail.
41:01Well, someday, someday, someday she might need to know.
41:07But not now.
41:10Not for a long time.
41:30Well, his mother's in rehab and his father's whereabouts are unknown.
41:34His schoolwork is a little below average.
41:39He's a good kid.
41:40He's very sensitive.
41:41Very sweet.
41:45You know he has an older sibling.
41:48No.
41:49No, we didn't.
41:50Yeah.
41:50His name is Durell.
41:53How old is he?
41:55Eleven.
41:57You know, we do prefer to try to keep siblings together.
42:08So when do we meet Durell?
42:12You know something?
42:14I like it.
42:17I think we could be very happy here, don't you?
42:19Yes, George.
42:20I thought you would like it here.
42:22Oh, I already do.
42:27So here we are.
42:29Dad.
42:30And Mom.
42:31And you.
42:33Can you turn the pitch for me?
42:36And this is Lisa.
42:38She was your first mommy.
42:40Your biological mommy.
42:41And that means that you lived there.
42:43Yeah.
42:43In her belly.
42:44Nine whole months of that.
42:46Just like your new brother or sister's living in your mother's belly now.
42:51She loved you.
42:52She loved you very much.
42:57Now, can I stick her?
