00:00:00When I got up this morning, I didn't want eggs
00:00:19For yogurt or bananas or the usual dregs
00:00:23My tongue dissipated, the taste I love most
00:00:27Cause when I get up in the morning, all I want is some toast
00:00:31But the cat's been in the butter again
00:00:36I can tell by her slippery grin
00:00:40The cat's been in the butter again
00:00:44Now I'll have to eat raisin bran
00:00:48If I leave it in the fridge all night, it's too hard to spread
00:00:53If I lock up the cat, she just goes out of her head
00:00:57Hello, rock!
00:00:58I'm in a hard place, I don't know what to do
00:01:01Let's sing another chorus of these feline bruises
00:01:06Oh, the cat's been in the butter again
00:01:10There's tongue prints on the parquet, greasy tracks to her bed
00:01:14I won't fall prey to her cheap alibi
00:01:18She'll be off my suspect list when dogs learn to fly
00:01:23Cinnamon, peanut butter, jelly or jam
00:01:27You won't get numb today
00:01:30Because that bad cat's been in the butter again
00:01:34Looking back, I can't remember a time when the five of us weren't together
00:01:39We grew up through the summer of love in Woodstock
00:01:43In Vietnam
00:01:45There was Mary Mary
00:01:47Who called her that to differentiate her from the other four Marys in our class
00:01:52Muriel
00:01:56She was tough as nails and always the first to try something new
00:02:00She never cared what anyone else thought
00:02:03Muriel called her own shots
00:02:05Margie
00:02:08Margie didn't lose sleep over the honor roll
00:02:11She was too cool for school
00:02:14And just about everything else
00:02:17Me?
00:02:19I was just your average bookworm trying to fit in
00:02:22And sweet Caroline
00:02:23Good times never seemed so good
00:02:26We were young
00:02:28And we didn't know the rest of our lives were just a blink away
00:02:32Darn, buttercat
00:02:39Let's go down to Louise
00:02:41Shotgun!
00:02:43I already called it
00:02:44You always already called it
00:03:02Morning, Dicks
00:03:05Mailman left us your mail again
00:03:07Well, Patch, you didn't have to bring them back
00:03:08You could have just paid them
00:03:10Looks like Muriel got something from a lawyer
00:03:12Your pension check came in, too
00:03:15Lucky bastard
00:03:17And just what exactly makes me the lucky bastard?
00:03:21Big Farman's gonna take care of you till you die
00:03:23Myrna and me, we're stuck in the donut hole
00:03:26Again
00:03:27Forty years on the road pushing product
00:03:29But I don't feel too guilty about a nice return on my efforts
00:03:33Hell no
00:03:34You got no worries, lucky bastard
00:03:37I wouldn't be anxious to get off that tit, either
00:03:42Moron
00:03:46Who's suing you?
00:03:48I don't know
00:03:50Well, you got something from a lawyer
00:03:51It can't be good
00:03:53I'll look in a minute
00:03:55Come on, you got legs? Use them
00:03:58Meh
00:03:59Third place
00:04:01Well, it still pays
00:04:03Bix, you want me to fix lunch before I go?
00:04:05Where are you going?
00:04:07Margie's funeral, I told you
00:04:08You know you could go with me
00:04:10Or I could play 18
00:04:12Nope, sorry
00:04:15Asher, are these your gummies?
00:04:30It's gummies
00:04:32And no, must be mom and dad's
00:04:34What if I was sleepwalking some night
00:04:36And I came out to the kitchen to get a snack
00:04:38And I took some of those by mistake
00:04:40You'd probably sleep way better
00:04:41You know you can pay bills online half the time
00:04:45Well, maybe I don't want the whole internet knowing my business
00:04:49They shouldn't be leaving those around the house, you know
00:04:52How would the whole internet...
00:04:53Never mind
00:04:54Where's mom and dad?
00:04:56Your dad's meeting some guy who might know some guy
00:05:00Who maybe could get them a license to get serious about opening their dispensary
00:05:05Yeah, he's still pretty stung about getting fired
00:05:07Pretty much sucks at his age
00:05:09This whole marijuana business is a house of cards
00:05:12Perfectly good education down the drain
00:05:16Up in smoke?
00:05:18Did I say that out loud?
00:05:23What are you all dressed up for?
00:05:25A funeral
00:05:26You go to a lot of those
00:05:28Comes to the territory
00:05:30You want me to make us something?
00:05:32Beans and weenies?
00:05:34Really?
00:05:34Before you go out in public?
00:05:39Shotgun!
00:05:41Shotgun!
00:05:46Well, congratulations
00:05:47You outlived all your friends
00:05:49You get the front seat
00:05:50Oh, I didn't mean anything by it
00:05:51I was just trying to cheer you up
00:05:53Well, stop trying
00:05:54Well, stop trying
00:05:56Stop trying
00:06:09I see some sad faces here today
00:06:15So I would like to begin our memorial for Margaret with these thoughts
00:06:20We all are immortal and exist outside of time
00:06:25Our consciousness belongs to the universe
00:06:29And when we die
00:06:30Our consciousness returns to cosmos
00:06:33Now, for those who fear death
00:06:36Are never truly alive
00:06:38So enjoy every moment
00:06:40Because we don't choose how many moments we receive
00:06:43Now, Margaret
00:06:46As many of you know
00:06:48Wasn't a church girl
00:06:49But
00:06:50She was a woman
00:06:52With a deep sense of spiritual awareness
00:06:55So she asked her daughter, Nicole
00:06:58To offer these thoughts to her friends in her past
00:07:01The poem is by Margie herself
00:07:04Now she's a poet?
00:07:13Now you're an old Jewish woman?
00:07:15Where'd that accent come from?
00:07:16I would kill for a bagel right now
00:07:18Can you hear my stomach grow?
00:07:19Tell your stomach to put a sock in it
00:07:21And, Miss Smartypants, my great-grandmother was in fact from Poland
00:07:26Into the dark
00:07:27Into the light
00:07:30Into whatever's there
00:07:32We can't and we don't know from this side
00:07:35For we've never had means to compare
00:07:38So it tests the faith of regular folk
00:07:43Some who believe what they've been told
00:07:45And some who question
00:07:46If we accept as fact
00:07:49Tales from a book ever so old
00:07:51Do we turn to dust
00:07:54Or rust
00:07:56Or sizzle
00:07:56On a spit
00:07:57In a place that ablaze
00:07:59Or do we float
00:08:00On endless silence
00:08:02With dead eyes
00:08:03That can't see
00:08:04In the haze
00:08:05Is it the beginning
00:08:07Or end
00:08:09Or a place in between
00:08:10Or is there just
00:08:13Nothing at all
00:08:14Is forever a tomb of silence
00:08:17Like a long
00:08:17Never-ending dark hall
00:08:19Where no one's eyes can see
00:08:22Does exist deep purple splendor
00:08:24Where all faith or not
00:08:26To end
00:08:27Be whatever
00:08:28In the great
00:08:29Ever after
00:08:30So remember
00:08:39Margaret
00:08:40In whatever place you want
00:08:42Just remember Margaret
00:08:44Because that's what she'd want
00:08:46Let us pray
00:08:48Our Father
00:08:51Who art in heaven
00:08:53How I be thy name
00:08:55Thy kingdom come
00:08:57Thy will be done
00:08:58Thy will be done
00:08:59On earth
00:08:59On earth
00:09:00As it is in heaven
00:09:01Give us this day
00:09:03Our daily bread
00:09:04And forgive us
00:09:06Our trespasses
00:09:07As we forgive
00:09:08Those who trespass
00:09:10Against us

00:09:37Little
00:09:37Jer
00:09:38The chicken fried steak goes to Ed.
00:09:53The whole guy in the overalls in the corner.
00:09:55Thanks.
00:09:56Which is the chicken fried steak?
00:09:58What?
00:09:58They just threw in the deep end, didn't they?
00:10:00Somebody was supposed to train me.
00:10:01I walked in and someone shoved these in my hand.
00:10:04Miss?
00:10:04I don't know what I'm doing here.
00:10:05It's pretty obvious.
00:10:06Miss!
00:10:08Um, so are we going to get our omelets today or are you waiting for the chicken to lay the eggs?
00:10:21I'm so sorry.
00:10:22You're next.
00:10:23I think.
00:10:29You were late.
00:10:31I'm sorry.
00:10:32I have a two-year-old.
00:10:33Deliver these.
00:10:34I'll get the next order set up for you.
00:10:36I'm Joyce.
00:10:37Quinn.
00:10:38I know.
00:10:42I'm trying to live up to it.
00:10:47Before we go today...
00:10:49Margie would hate every minute of this.
00:10:52Funerals are for the family.
00:10:54When I die, just chuck my ashes in the Herbie and can the poetry too.
00:10:59And you can pick one up on your way out.
00:11:02Not even a limerick.
00:11:03Only if it's dirty.
00:11:04Only if it's dirty.
00:11:06There once was a woman, Babe Muriel, who didn't want any burial, she said, put my ashes in the can where the trash is.
00:11:17I'll go shut yourself.
00:11:26Lift your feet.
00:11:32Why?
00:11:33I just gotta chill.
00:11:35Ghosts.
00:11:36This place is probably crawling with them.
00:11:37Lift your feet.
00:11:38No.
00:11:39Will you please?
00:11:41Please.
00:11:41Please.
00:11:42Please.
00:11:42Please.
00:12:13Is this the place?
00:12:23It's cute.
00:12:24Kind of small, though.
00:12:25I wonder why they're having the reception here.
00:12:27Someone said the church basement flooded.
00:12:29But Margie will have her party, come hell or high water.
00:12:43I don't think it'd be a nice one.
00:12:48Yeah, I got it.
00:12:49Yeah, I got it.
00:12:51Yeah, I got it.
00:12:53Yeah.
00:12:54Yeah.
00:12:55Yeah.
00:12:56Yeah.
00:12:57Yeah.
00:12:58Yeah.
00:12:59Yeah.
00:13:00Yeah.
00:13:01Yeah.
00:13:02Yeah.
00:13:03Hey, I got some good shit.
00:13:13Wanna smoke one with me?
00:13:14Oh, I don't, you know, smoke really.
00:13:17That's okay.
00:13:18Just trying to be hospitable.
00:13:20I like beer.
00:13:21Oh, I don't, you know, drink beer, really.
00:13:24Seems we've had an impasse.
00:13:26Or a solution.
00:13:27Just depends on how you look at it.
00:13:28Also, this is also a solution.
00:13:36You don't really trust me.
00:13:38You don't really trust me.
00:13:39I was borndzieial chickenMY.
00:13:41I was born mapped out in prison.
00:13:47I was born in prison.
00:14:18Is this chicken or beef?
00:14:39Nothing.
00:14:40What?
00:14:41Where have you been?
00:14:42You look like you've seen a ghost.
00:14:44Hi.
00:14:45I don't know if you remember me, Nicole, Margie's stepdaughter.
00:14:48Of course we remember you.
00:14:49We're so sorry about Margie's passing.
00:14:51Oh, thank you.
00:14:52We've been going through Mom's papers for the past few days and...
00:14:56Oh, I shouldn't say anything.
00:14:57You'll get a letter from the attorneys.
00:14:59But she left you something.
00:15:01What?
00:15:01She left us something?
00:15:03What is it?
00:15:04Muriel!
00:15:04I shouldn't say any more.
00:15:06It's a legalese thing.
00:15:09We're both so touched that Margie would think of us like that.
00:15:13Mom didn't have any sisters.
00:15:14Oh, I know you know that.
00:15:16And I think she always thought of you two that way.
00:15:21Aw.
00:15:21Is this chicken or beef?
00:15:23Muriel?
00:15:24Lamb, actually.
00:15:26My husband's family's Greek.
00:15:28They made all the food.
00:15:31Okay, then.
00:15:32You know, Mom used to tell us stories about how much fun you had growing up in the 70s.
00:15:37How you got to see all the best bands without having to mortgage your home to purchase tickets.
00:15:42Oh, I could tell you some stories.
00:15:43But you won't.
00:15:45But I won't.
00:15:46Oh, I see some folks I need to get a word with before they get away.
00:15:49There's plenty of food.
00:15:50The folks made enough to feed an army.
00:15:52Bon appetit.
00:15:53No, no, we're good.
00:15:55She left us something?
00:15:57She left us something.
00:16:14No, Uncle Jed.
00:16:16It was a fox.
00:16:23Ella, Mom's home.
00:16:24Pray over if she gets in here.
00:16:26Shoot!
00:16:27How do you spell hydroponics?
00:16:28Is it an A or an O?
00:16:30Who cares?
00:16:30Just get casual fast.
00:16:32Looks like the whole clan's home.
00:16:34Yeah.
00:16:34Thanks for driving.
00:16:35I couldn't get to my car if I needed to.
00:16:38What's the matter?
00:16:40It just hit me.
00:16:41We're the last two from our group.
00:16:44Who'd you think it would be?
00:16:45I don't know.
00:16:45I never really thought about it.
00:16:48Mary Mary, Sweet Caroline, and now Margie?
00:16:51They're all gone.
00:16:52I know there were times I should have been dead.
00:16:55How many nights did I drive us home with one eye closed so I could stay between the lines?
00:17:00I'd have killed Jeremy if he'd done half the stuff we did.
00:17:03We?
00:17:03Said the good girl.
00:17:05You were only naughty by association.
00:17:07Well, you had to have someone to call for bail money.
00:17:10You want to come in for a glass of wine or something?
00:17:12We could have a toast to Margie.
00:17:14I'll pass.
00:17:16Thanks, though.
00:17:19You two streaming porn?
00:17:21What's the big deal?
00:17:23Grandma's going to be coming here and start asking a bunch of questions.
00:17:25About what?
00:17:27Jobs that we don't have yet.
00:17:28Hey, one of us works.
00:17:32Real jobs.
00:17:33And she has a hard time understanding why we can't find any because there's so many old
00:17:36wanted signs everywhere.
00:17:38Guy I work with just got put on as a plumber's apprentice.
00:17:41A plumber fixes pipes and unclogs toilets.
00:17:43I know what a plumber does.
00:17:45I need to spend 80 grand on education to tug a lug wrench around and fix toilets.
00:17:50Funny, is it?
00:17:51Kind of is.
00:17:53I'm going to have to sneak out for coffee later to finish this and my unemployment reporting
00:17:57is due today.
00:17:58I thought Grandma liked having us here.
00:18:01Well, she does.
00:18:02I mean, it's good for her to have us around, you know, to help out with things.
00:18:05Like unclogging toilets?
00:18:09What's so funny?
00:18:10Your grandson thinks he's a card.
00:18:12King of diamonds.
00:18:13I'd just be KD to my friends.
00:18:15Have you given any thought to dinner?
00:18:17Not really.
00:18:17Whatever you want to make is fine.
00:18:19I'm probably going out.
00:18:21I thought you had to work.
00:18:21I got called off.
00:18:25Oh, no.
00:18:25Please.
00:18:26Let me.
00:18:46Shotgun.
00:18:51I got called off.
00:19:18I got called off.
00:19:18I got called off.
00:19:21To you, Margie.
00:19:28Missing you, Margie.
00:19:37Dear Ms. Hauser, you are hereby notified of the public reading of the will of Mrs. Margaret Hope Daniels.
00:19:51Aren't you going to open this? What if it's something important?
00:19:57I already know what it is.
00:19:59You want to share the news then, Houdini?
00:20:02It's nothing. Go away and let me sleep.
00:20:04One doesn't usually get correspondence from an attorney for no good reason.
00:20:11If you're so crazy to know what it's about, why don't you just open it?
00:20:15It's not addressed to me.
00:20:17You do still have some southern gentlemen in you, don't you?
00:20:21Okay, you want to know?
00:20:23I inherited a bucket of money and they're telling me to come pick it up.
00:20:26Don't be funny.
00:20:28I'm not.
00:20:29Margie left something to me and Joyce, and we have to go to the reading of the will to find out.
00:20:34Oh, okay.
00:20:37Oh, and just for the record, I'd be okay with that bucket of money.
00:20:41My partner's about Shah.
00:20:43A man your age should never say that, Bix.
00:20:46Lots of women have dense tissue masses.
00:20:51Your mammograms were inconclusive.
00:20:55And the CT scan will just give us a better idea of what you've got going on there.
00:21:00Try not to worry until we know if there's anything to worry about.
00:21:04You'll get a call in the next day or so to schedule.
00:21:06And the CT scan will just give us a better idea of what you've got going on there.
00:21:11Try not to worry until we know if there's anything to worry about.
00:21:14You'll get a call in the next day or so to schedule.
00:21:34You came back.
00:21:35Why wouldn't I?
00:21:36Well, your first night was a little rough.
00:21:39Oh.
00:21:40You don't know me.
00:21:41I may be a lot of things, but I'm not a quitter.
00:21:43You a singer?
00:21:44What?
00:21:45A juggler, arsonist.
00:21:48Can you weld?
00:21:49What?
00:21:50Just curious to know what else is on the list.
00:21:53You're hilarious.
00:21:54You don't even know.
00:22:01Libby said her neighbor Wesley was asking about you again.
00:22:04Well, he can stop asking.
00:22:06It would kill you to go out with a fairly wealthy widower.
00:22:09I'm just not interested.
00:22:10You haven't been interested in 30 years.
00:22:13What?
00:22:15You owe me 360.
00:22:17For what?
00:22:18We could have won if you hadn't landed us in that stupid four-spaid contract when three-note Trump was cold.
00:22:24Sorry.
00:22:25What's done is done.
00:22:26You want to split the rest of that Caesar?
00:22:29Muriel, can I tell you something?
00:22:31Suppose I can't stop you.
00:22:33The other day at Margie's funeral, I thought I saw somebody I know I couldn't have seen.
00:22:39And it kind of freaked me out.
00:22:41And I can't stop thinking about it.
00:22:46Who was it?
00:22:47Nobody.
00:22:48Well, it had to be somebody.
00:22:49Nobody you know.
00:22:50Was it somebody famous or just regular?
00:22:53Did you see a dead person?
00:22:54Oh, forget it.
00:22:55I'm sorry I said anything.
00:22:57Well, don't get your knickers in a knot.
00:22:59I'm sure it's just your mind playing tricks on you.
00:23:01Mine does that sometimes, too.
00:23:03Probably the onset of dementia.
00:23:05So, yea or nay on the Caesar.
00:23:07Where you headed to now?
00:23:18Someone else dead?
00:23:20Close.
00:23:21The reading of Margie's will.
00:23:22Oh, yea.
00:23:23You gotta go pick up your bucket of money, right?
00:23:26Yea, and maybe after we'll drive up to the casino.
00:23:29Muriel.
00:23:37I bet she's leaving us her fiesta ware.
00:23:51Yep, I bet she's leaving us her whole collection of fiesta ware.
00:23:56God, I hate fiesta ware.
00:23:58You know, we're gonna have to look surprised and happy when they tell us we're getting all those ugly dishes.
00:24:03Well, maybe she left us some cash.
00:24:05That'd be alright.
00:24:06I'm not mad at money.
00:24:08Now remember, whatever it is, act pleased.
00:24:13Now remember, whatever it is, act pleased.
00:24:39And smile.
00:24:40I'm not the one who's mad at fiesta wear.
00:24:46And as to the matter of Sun Cat 19, I would like my two dear friends, Muriel Chambers and
00:24:51Joyce Hauser, to use it in good health and remember all our good times.
00:24:56She's a great getaway when you need to get away.
00:24:59What?
00:25:00She leave us a tanning bed?
00:25:02It's a boat.
00:25:03What?
00:25:04You two just inherited a 19-foot sailboat.
00:25:07She's a beauty.
00:25:08How long have you been sailing?
00:25:09Never.
00:25:10There must be a mistake.
00:25:11Are you sure that's for us?
00:25:13Who's getting the dishes?
00:25:14According to the will that Mrs. Daniels swore in this office just two months ago, it is.
00:25:19I wish you two could see your faces right now.
00:25:23So, now what do we do?
00:25:26Sign a few papers and you can sail her off into the sunset.
00:25:30My clerk will get you all set up.
00:25:32Okay.
00:25:33So, moving on to some of the other household possessions, there's the matter of the Wurlitzer
00:25:37organ.
00:25:43A boat!
00:25:44So you're not mad at money and you're not mad at fiesta wear.
00:25:47How do you feel about a boat?
00:25:48I don't know what I am at a boat.
00:25:49I don't know what I am at a boat.
00:25:50How was there this whole side of Marky we knew nothing about?
00:25:54People change and women tend to become what their husbands want them to be.
00:25:58That's not true.
00:25:59Otherwise, you would be a golf whore instead of a golf widow.
00:26:01I'm an exception.
00:26:02Face it.
00:26:03In the end, all they really want is a housewife and a whore.
00:26:07Mariel!
00:26:08Sometimes I think you're lucky never to have married again.
00:26:11You're way too malleable.
00:26:13Guess it wasn't in the cards.
00:26:16At the end of the day, it's a boat and we're stuck with it.
00:26:40And I guess we have that new husband of hers to blame for this whole mess.
00:26:44Well, he was new 20 years ago.
00:26:46Didn't like him then.
00:26:47Still not a fan.
00:26:48And how is this his fault?
00:26:50Well, if he didn't take Margie away up north, there wouldn't be a boat.
00:26:54And if they don't blow their money on a boat and splurge on regular luxuries,
00:26:59then right now we'd be inheriting an Audi coupe.
00:27:02I wonder why she didn't leave it to the kids.
00:27:05Who knows what kind of hellions they were growing up.
00:27:08Margie never even wanted kids.
00:27:10We've all said that one time or another.
00:27:12But you can't give them back.
00:27:14I can't even get mine off the couch.
00:27:16If she'd wanted kids, she could have had them with Del.
00:27:18He shot blinks.
00:27:20Or that's just the story they put out there.
00:27:22Yeah, I'm sure that's the first choice alibi for most guys.
00:27:26Okay, why didn't she have a kid when she first got with Bill?
00:27:29Easy.
00:27:30They already had enough.
00:27:32Why should she throw her hips out of the joint just to make a point?
00:27:38Muriel, let's go see our boat.
00:27:41Now?
00:27:42Not right this minute.
00:27:43I suppose we should.
00:27:44Where is this boat we've inherited?
00:27:46Well, I assume it's up north.
00:27:48That's where they spent summers.
00:27:49You want to take a road trip tomorrow?
00:27:51Can't. Steamship Downs runs at noon.
00:27:53I thought Bix didn't want you betting the ponies anymore.
00:27:56Well, good for him.
00:27:57I'm willing to put my money where his mouth is.
00:27:59Besides, it's awfully hard for him to keep track of what I'm doing from the 19th hole.
00:28:04I'm sure in your head that made sense.
00:28:07Day after tomorrow, I'll get directions.
00:28:21Oh, did you do the dishes?
00:28:23I was going to get up and do them in a minute.
00:28:25Didn't take long.
00:28:26I hate to let them sit when we've finished eating.
00:28:29Well, tomorrow's my night.
00:28:32You just remind me to get up off this couch and do them.
00:28:35Right.
00:28:38Oh, hey, Mom.
00:28:39You got a list there for the groceries?
00:28:41Yes.
00:28:42What do you need?
00:28:43Snack stuff.
00:28:44Frozen pizzas.
00:28:45You know what we like.
00:28:46Oh, can you put those little cheeseburgers on there too?
00:28:48And corn chips.
00:28:50And corn chips.
00:28:51What do you think?
00:28:52We live in the Alps?
00:28:53I heard her.
00:28:54Okay.
00:28:55You know the blue ones, right?
00:28:56I think there's another bag in the cupboard behind that.
00:29:00Stip box of ambition.
00:29:02What?
00:29:03Uh, nothing.
00:29:05Anything else, Your Highness?
00:29:07Not now.
00:29:09You know, in case you were wondering, it was a nice service for Marky a week ago.
00:29:15We forgot.
00:29:16I'm sorry, Mom.
00:29:17I was going to ask you how that went.
00:29:19It went like a funeral.
00:29:22They're pretty much all the same.
00:29:24When I die.
00:29:25Don't serve lamb.
00:29:26Kiss me again.
00:29:27Cause I'll not show what time it is.
00:29:32So how long have you been working at this place?
00:29:47Forever and not long enough.
00:29:50Huh?
00:29:51Trying to make enough money to get out of here.
00:29:53Get out of here?
00:29:54Where are you going to go?
00:29:55California.
00:29:57And what's out there that you can't find here?
00:30:00Me?
00:30:01California.
00:30:02Wow.
00:30:03What are you going to do there?
00:30:04I have a friend who says he can get me some work in the movies.
00:30:07Uh, I'll probably be a stuntman.
00:30:08I'm not afraid, and I love the rush.
00:30:09That sounds exciting.
00:30:10I'll probably be a teacher my whole life.
00:30:11Teacher, what are you doing here?
00:30:12We need a new furnace.
00:30:13We?
00:30:14Yeah.
00:30:15Oh.
00:30:16I figured tips would be better without it.
00:30:18According to my old man, I'm not good for much other than falling down.
00:30:19So might as well make some money at it.
00:30:20Well, if you don't make it in the movies, you could always be a reporter.
00:30:21Can you type?
00:30:22No.
00:30:23I've got it.
00:30:24You're brilliantly persuasive.
00:30:25I'll probably be a teacher my whole life.
00:30:26Teacher, what are you doing here?
00:30:27We need a new furnace.
00:30:28We?
00:30:29Yeah.
00:30:30Oh.
00:30:31I figured tips would be better without it.
00:30:32According to my old man, I'm not good for much other than falling down.
00:30:37So might as well make some money at it.
00:30:39Well, if you don't make it in the movies, you could always be a reporter.
00:30:44Can you type?
00:30:45No, I've got it.
00:30:46You're brilliantly persuasive and quick to flip an argument.
00:30:50You could be a lawyer.
00:30:51Great.
00:30:52Me.
00:30:53A lawyer.
00:30:54Don't sell yourself short.
00:30:56It sounds like everybody else already has.
00:31:01With your Wexford set is this complimentary cookbook.
00:31:04Our Shop at Home Network chefs have broken down time-tested recipes into a handful of simple steps.
00:31:10So easy to make a delicious meal every time.
00:31:14And remember, every time that bell rings, another angel gets her cookware.
00:31:19Don't miss this opportunity to get your Wexford set.
00:31:22Our producers tell me we're under 200 now.
00:31:24Less than 200 opportunities left to own these world-class pots and pans.
00:31:29Think of the delicious meals for your family.
00:31:32Let's be honest.
00:31:33These days, it's hard to get everybody around the dinner table at one time.
00:31:37Let's give them a delicious reason to show up.
00:31:40Another angel gets her Wexford.
00:31:47Don't miss this opportunity to make a drink.
00:31:48Oh my God.
00:31:49Don't know that old partner.
00:31:50Come on.
00:31:51Oh my God.
00:31:52Oh, I need a perfect one still.
00:31:54I don't know an alligator from a crocodile.
00:32:16Are you going to deal with these cards or what?
00:32:18Yeah, he's out of here.
00:32:19Come on.
00:32:22Swear us off the bottom of the deck again.
00:32:25Oh, I'm watching.
00:32:27Well, there you go.
00:32:29Put up a no vacancy sign.
00:32:31This house is full.
00:32:35Son of a bitch.
00:32:37I'm out.
00:32:38I've had enough fun for one night.
00:32:40You make it sound like we're done.
00:32:42Don't I get a chance to win my money back?
00:32:44You know, Vegas never closes, Vicks, but we do.
00:32:47Well, I guarantee my wife's either passed out
00:32:49or she's playing on that damn computer.
00:32:52Either way, I'm good to stay, so deal her.
00:32:54Vicks is campaigning for husband of the year
00:32:57for the 40-something year in a row.
00:33:00Word to the wise, I do is a life sentence.
00:33:03You either got to put up with them or pay them all.
00:33:06Oh, he's a hopeless romantic, isn't he, fellas?
00:33:08You know, Hallmark calls them up
00:33:09when they want a new slogan for their cards.
00:33:11Okay, so make me take more of your money.
00:33:14The game is five-card drawing.
00:33:16Deuces wild.
00:33:17We still got some beer in that, Pony?
00:33:19Yeah, I'll go grab some.
00:33:21You know, two of you need to ante up.
00:33:22Don't think I don't see that.
00:33:24Here we go.
00:33:25It's like playing cards with my sister's kids.
00:33:27You caught me.
00:33:32How far is it?
00:33:33It's on a lake up near Traverse City.
00:33:35It's gonna take us about three hours to get there.
00:33:38What?
00:33:39I didn't pack an overnight bag.
00:33:41Keep your voice down.
00:33:42The kids are still asleep.
00:33:44Jeremy's still in the sack?
00:33:45Yes.
00:33:46I can't believe a job can't find him.
00:33:48Asher works.
00:33:49He didn't get home till after midnight.
00:33:51It's gonna be hard for him to support both of his parents.
00:33:54What?
00:33:55Well, you're not gonna be around forever.
00:33:56I like having them here.
00:33:58It's better than always coming home to an empty house.
00:34:01Touche.
00:34:03Oh, I didn't mean anything by it, Muriel.
00:34:06I'm the one that doesn't like to be alone.
00:34:09Everybody hates to be alone.
00:34:11You ready to go?
00:34:13We got a lot of road ahead of us.
00:34:28Welcome to Up North.
00:34:40You remembered the papers, right?
00:34:42Right here.
00:34:47What's that?
00:34:48I hope you'll love her as much as we did.
00:34:51She's a great place to get away when you need a getaway.
00:34:54Love, Margie.
00:34:55Aw.
00:35:17We were wondering if you could help us.
00:35:20But first, I gotta know.
00:35:21Do they call you Doc or Billy?
00:35:24Yeah.
00:35:25Never heard that one before.
00:35:26Okay.
00:35:27I'm just gonna lay our cards on the table.
00:35:30We inherited a boat.
00:35:31Well, congratulations.
00:35:33Look, Doc.
00:35:34We don't know what we're doing here.
00:35:36Kinda pissing me off is the answer so far.
00:35:39And we so do not mean to do that.
00:35:41What is your first name, by the way?
00:35:43Mister.
00:35:44You can call me Mister Holiday.
00:35:46Got a brother named Happy?
00:35:48Stop it.
00:35:49I can't.
00:35:50Stop it.
00:35:51We did not drive all this way to get kicked out of here without our boat.
00:36:03Something wrong with you girls?
00:36:05Are you drunk?
00:36:07For starters, we're not girls.
00:36:10We're women.
00:36:11And neither one of us usually act like this.
00:36:18But our friend died.
00:36:20And she left us a boat.
00:36:24And we'd like to see it.
00:36:26Yeah?
00:36:27Well, who is this friend of yours?
00:36:29Margaret Daniels.
00:36:30Oh, okay.
00:36:31You're Margie's friends.
00:36:33Sorry to hear about her passing, I was.
00:36:36She and her Mister have been coming up here longer than I have.
00:36:39It's a shame they're both gone now.
00:36:40Oh, amen, Mister.
00:36:42Mister Holiday, would you take us to see our boat?
00:36:44I will.
00:36:45I'd be happy to.
00:36:46And you can call me Eugene.
00:36:48Hop in your car and follow me.
00:36:50We gotta go to that little cove around that point.
00:36:52Come on.
00:37:08It's beautiful.
00:37:10She's a good little boat, she is.
00:37:12I don't know what I expected, but I like it.
00:37:16Her.
00:37:17Don't you, Mario?
00:37:18Looks like a fine boat to me.
00:37:20It floats.
00:37:21I'm gonna miss her.
00:37:24This boat's been in this little slip ever since I've been dockmaster here.
00:37:28Don't you want to take it out for a ride?
00:37:30I mean, we came up here all this way and we could've done it over the phone, but we came up here.
00:37:36Let's take it out for a ride.
00:37:38You own the boat.
00:37:39You're welcome to take her for a sail.
00:37:41Come on, Muriel.
00:37:42Let's take her out.
00:37:44You're forgetting one little thing.
00:37:46We don't know how to sail.
00:37:48I'm sure Eugene, Mr. Holiday, would take us out.
00:37:53Wouldn't you, Eugene?
00:37:55Nothing I'd love more than to spend all afternoon trawling around on the water with you women, but we've got a meeting with the city commission at 2.30.
00:38:03We could take her out tomorrow if once.
00:38:04Oh, we're not staying.
00:38:05This is a day trip.
00:38:07So how long do you think you'd be before you find a buyer?
00:38:10Well, we're just getting into the season, so it's a good time to put her on the block.
00:38:15But you girls, women, don't need to worry about that.
00:38:20Margie made sure that the slip fees and the launch tickets are paid through the season.
00:38:23That'll save you having to haul her out.
00:38:25Wait!
00:38:26Don't you at least want to get a picture?
00:38:29Mr. Holiday, would you take a picture of us with the boat?
00:38:32Sure.
00:38:39Say, Margie.
00:38:41Margie!
00:38:43Take a couple more. Just to be sure, I always blink.
00:38:55Do you know much about your sun cat?
00:38:57Up until a few days ago, we thought it was a tanning bed.
00:39:00It's too bad you two didn't get the call of the sea.
00:39:03If you had, that would have been a good little boat to get started on.
00:39:06Is it hard to learn to sail?
00:39:08Not on that little boat, especially if there's two of you.
00:39:11Stand the mast, insert the safety pin, attach the headstay, lock the shroud lever.
00:39:16In the beginning, you could should raft into them little gunk holes out by the coast.
00:39:20Go up to the thin water where the big boats can't go.
00:39:23But it wouldn't be long before you'd want to turn your nose to the wind.
00:39:30I swear I can almost still see Margie running her out to the lake.
00:39:33Margie knew how to sail?
00:39:34Margie was a good little sailor.
00:39:36I think she came out even more after a mister died.
00:39:38Margie took the boat out?
00:39:40By herself.
00:39:41Sure she did.
00:39:42It's easier with two, but one person could man it.
00:39:45I don't know, Doc.
00:39:46I'm not the man I used to be.
00:39:50You sure we ought to sell the boat?
00:39:53It feels kind of disrespectful to Margie.
00:39:56Now what the hell are we going to do with a boat?
00:39:58I don't know, sail it?
00:40:00Don't look at me like I'm crazy.
00:40:02When did we get too old to have fun?
00:40:04At our age we just have different fun.
00:40:06But we'll sail the boat and we'll go to Las Vegas or something.
00:40:10We'll be a couple of dangerous old broads loose on the strip.
00:40:13Can we go on the zip lines?
00:40:14No, but give me enough rum and we'll find a conga line somewhere or start one.
00:40:19I don't know if I want to go to Vegas.
00:40:21Well, where do you want to go?
00:40:22I don't know.
00:40:23I've hardly been anywhere, but here.
00:40:27Thought about California once.
00:40:29Well, I can tell you there's one place I don't want to go and that's Tennessee.
00:40:33Even Bix can't stand his relatives.
00:40:42Are you serious?
00:40:43What you said last night about leaving?
00:40:45I can chicken fry a steak anywhere.
00:40:47As soon as I've got the money, I'm out of here.
00:40:49I grew up here.
00:40:51Probably die here too.
00:40:53There's gotta be more than this.
00:40:55Out there, I bet nobody cares who you are or what you are.
00:40:59So you're just gonna throw all the cards in the air
00:41:02and assume everything's gonna work out?
00:41:04That's the plan.
00:41:08What?
00:41:09Nothing.
00:41:10That's not your nothing things.
00:41:12I'm just kind of bummed that you're leaving.
00:41:14You barely know me.
00:41:16And why I'm kind of bummed that you're leaving.
00:41:18A few years from now, you won't even remember me.
00:41:21Or if you do, I'll just be a cool breeze that blew through your life.
00:41:25Hey, Asher.
00:41:26Where's your folks?
00:41:27I don't know.
00:41:28They weren't here when I got home.
00:41:29Not working tonight?
00:41:30Nope.
00:41:31Fine, do you need something?
00:41:32Asher, what do you want to be when you grow up?
00:41:33God, Grandma.
00:41:34You haven't asked me that since I was like eight.
00:41:35I think back then you wanted to be a dump truck driver.
00:41:36Is that still your life ambition?
00:41:37I don't know.
00:41:38Why?
00:41:39Why do you want to be when you grow up?
00:41:40God, Grandma.
00:41:41You haven't asked me that since I was like eight.
00:41:42I think back then you wanted to be a dump truck driver.
00:41:44Is that still your life ambition?
00:41:45I don't know.
00:41:46Why?
00:41:47Just curious.
00:41:48You want a glass?
00:41:49I'm not 21 yet.
00:41:50Oh, come on.
00:41:51Take a walk on the wild side with your grandma.
00:41:52How dangerous can that be?
00:41:53I don't know.
00:41:54I think back then you wanted to be a dump truck driver.
00:41:57Is that still your life ambition?
00:41:59I don't know.
00:42:00Why?
00:42:01Just curious.
00:42:02You want a glass?
00:42:03I'm not 21 yet.
00:42:04Oh, come on.
00:42:05Take a walk on the wild side with your grandma.
00:42:09How dangerous can that be?
00:42:20Now that we're drinking buddies, can I tell you something?
00:42:34Old person to young person?
00:42:36Sure, I guess.
00:42:37What?
00:42:38It goes by quick.
00:42:41And when you look back you'll realize that there were decisions in your life that were pivotal.
00:42:48Even if it didn't seem momentous at the time.
00:42:50Okay.
00:42:51And you don't want to find yourself at the end wondering if it could have been different.
00:42:57If you had just had the courage to make different choices.
00:43:02Did dad set this up for you to grill me?
00:43:04Is that why they're not home tonight?
00:43:06So, I mentioned I had looked into a plumbing apprenticeship.
00:43:09Sue me.
00:43:10Maybe I don't want to chop onions or peel potatoes at the grill house for the rest of my life.
00:43:15Plumbing would be a bad thing?
00:43:16Dad didn't seem very excited about it.
00:43:18Guess to him it's not a real job because it doesn't come with a degree.
00:43:22I think that's a fine career if you want it.
00:43:24Don't make choices to please other people, Asher.
00:43:27You're the one that has to live with it.
00:43:29Thanks, Grandma.
00:43:30I'm not sure.
00:43:31I'm just looking into it.
00:43:33I have a bag of extra butter popcorn with your name on it.
00:43:36You want to watch a movie?
00:43:37Sorry, Grandma.
00:43:38I got a date.
00:43:39What are you doing drinking then if you're going to be out driving?
00:43:42I have like a sip.
00:43:44Oh.
00:43:45Oh!
00:43:47Can I tell you one more thing?
00:43:49Sure, I guess.
00:43:50What?
00:43:51I inherited a boat.
00:43:52Don't tell your dad though, okay?
00:43:54Have a good time!
00:43:56Wait, what?
00:43:57I don't know.
00:43:58Bye.
00:43:59Bye.
00:44:00Have a great time.
00:44:01Bye.
00:44:02Bye.
00:44:07Bye.
00:44:27Joyce?
00:44:51Joyce?
00:44:57My pager, it beeped. Excuse me, I have to go.
00:45:13Who is that?
00:45:14Oh, no one. I thought she was someone I knew. Guess not. How'd it go? As always.
00:45:27If past is proof, nothing good can come of this.
00:45:57Great. You woke the kid. Are you happy now?
00:46:03Let me put my stuff down. I'll go tuck him back in.
00:46:06Where the hell have you been? You thought the diner closed at seven. Takes you two hours to clean up?
00:46:11We had a couple of beers after we locked up.
00:46:14Who's we?
00:46:15Me and the prep cook.
00:46:17Who is this guy? Does he know you're married?
00:46:20Yes. Don't worry. I bought my own beer.
00:46:27I can't stay out every night after work with you.
00:46:46Saying I'm a bad habit?
00:46:48No.
00:46:49I'm just saying I have to go home.
00:46:52Who says?
00:46:53Al will be really mad if I stay out again tonight. I really got the third degree last night.
00:46:58Oh.
00:46:59So what are you gonna do then?
00:47:01I'm just gonna go home and...
00:47:04I don't know.
00:47:06Okay then.
00:47:07Okay.
00:47:08I'm sorry.
00:47:20I don't want you to be.
00:47:30Getting on?
00:47:32Oh.
00:47:33Yeah.
00:47:34Sorry.
00:47:51Where is your head? You got food coming up and tables to clean.
00:47:54Sorry.
00:47:55What? Food first. You do know what we do here, right?
00:47:59Sorry.
00:48:00I gotta go get a newspaper.
00:48:02Try to stay awake until I get back.
00:48:08What's the matter?
00:48:09Nothing.
00:48:10Again, not your nothing face. I can tell.
00:48:12How long for the pot pie?
00:48:14It'll be up in a minute.
00:48:26Thought I'd stop in for a cup of coffee.
00:48:28Who's watching Jeremy?
00:48:29I asked Theresa to sit with him.
00:48:31Probably won't be out very long.
00:48:33Will I?
00:48:34You've made your point, Al.
00:48:39So, this is the diner.
00:48:41All these interesting people come in to eat.
00:48:45Huh.
00:48:47Doesn't look too exciting to me.
00:48:48It's a slow night.
00:48:49So, is your drinking buddy back in the kitchen?
00:48:54No.
00:48:55He's off today.
00:48:57How convenient.
00:48:59This is a nice place.
00:49:05I have to make it a point to stop in more often.
00:49:17Maybe you need to brew a fresh pot.
00:49:20This tastes like shit.
00:49:38Mom!
00:49:41What?
00:49:42What are you doing?
00:49:43What's it look like I'm doing?
00:49:44I'm vacuuming.
00:49:45You vacuumed already this morning.
00:49:47Oh, I did?
00:49:48Yeah, you did.
00:49:50Maybe you need to get out a little more.
00:49:52Maybe you need a hobby.
00:49:54Really?
00:49:56Yeah.
00:49:57My aunt, she took this class and she learned how to make fairy houses.
00:50:02And then her friends, they saw them online and everybody wanted one.
00:50:07And then, now, she has lots to do.
00:50:14Maybe you could do something like that.
00:50:20Well, you know, Mom, you could go get a job.
00:50:22Why don't you get a job?
00:50:23Oh, come on.
00:50:24You know I've been looking.
00:50:25Speaking of Muriel, she was right.
00:50:27How's a job going to find you if you're laying around in the sack all day?
00:50:30Who said anything about Muriel?
00:50:32And, like, she's wanting to talk.
00:50:33Her kids don't even come around anymore.
00:50:34Because they live on the other side of the country.
00:50:37P.S. They both have jobs.
00:50:39You want me to get a job?
00:50:40I'll go out and get a job before dinner.
00:50:41I'm sure it'll be something miserable.
00:50:42But I'll get a job if that's what you want.
00:50:44I don't know what I want!
00:50:53You want to yell some more?
00:50:54Not really.
00:50:55When you yell, I hear your dad.
00:50:57Are we getting on your nerves?
00:50:58I mean, I know things haven't really worked out the way they're supposed to since we've been back.
00:51:04I like having you around.
00:51:06Mostly.
00:51:07I mean, I can't run around the house anymore without a bra.
00:51:11Or go naked from the bedroom to the shower.
00:51:14No, no.
00:51:15No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:51:16Mom, mom, no.
00:51:17No.
00:51:18And yeah, I still worry that you're going to be okay.
00:51:21That's the problem, mom.
00:51:23You worry about everything.
00:51:24No, I don't.
00:51:25Yeah, you do.
00:51:26So maybe I don't want to tell everyone my son works in a pot shop.
00:51:30What's wrong with just getting a regular job?
00:51:32My fate is in the hands of the universe.
00:51:34I mean, not much I can do to control it.
00:51:37Give me a break.
00:51:38Don't go on again about being a fatality.
00:51:41Fatalist.
00:51:42It's a different thing, really.
00:51:44You know, mom, while we're talking, you seem a little distracted.
00:51:48Is everything okay?
00:51:49Is that your delicate way of asking me if I'm playing with a full deck?
00:51:54No, no.
00:51:55You're telling me something's wrong, right?
00:51:57Always the suspicious one.
00:51:58Just like your dad.
00:52:10Al's not a bad guy.
00:52:12Really?
00:52:13Yeah.
00:52:14He seems like a prince.
00:52:19What do you mean?
00:52:40Not in the mood?
00:52:41Again?
00:52:42I'm tired, okay?
00:52:43Hmm, it'll help you sleep.
00:52:46I said no, Al.
00:52:48Hello?
00:53:10Mom, hold on.
00:53:15I can't hear you over the music.
00:53:18Okay, you've got to get a what?
00:53:29When did this start?
00:53:39Al's mother has an appendectomy scheduled for Thursday.
00:53:42Oh.
00:53:43In Cincinnati.
00:53:44Oh?
00:53:45He won't be home until the weekend.
00:53:52It's a sign.
00:53:59It's a sign.
00:54:03It's a sign.
00:54:10How you feel tomorrow starts today.
00:54:12Don't suffer in silence.
00:54:13Pop your cork.
00:54:14Let it out.
00:54:15Find a friend or professional to listen.
00:54:17Do it today.
00:54:18Do it for you.
00:54:19It's a sign.
00:54:20It's a sign.
00:54:21It's a sign.
00:54:26It's a sign.
00:54:27It's a sign.
00:54:28Okay, bye.
00:54:29I have a wait.
00:54:30Mmm, that's all right.
00:54:31It's a sign.
00:54:32It's a sign.
00:54:33I've got a look.
00:54:35You know what?
00:54:36I don't know.
00:54:37I don't know what that means.
00:54:38I know.
00:54:39I know you.
00:54:40I'm trying to figure it out.
00:54:41I'm trying to figure it out.
00:54:42I know you guys can't make it work.
00:54:44I know.
00:54:45You're looking for all the mosquitoes.
00:54:46You don't mind if grandma burrows your car for an errand, do you?
00:55:01Awww
00:55:31Muriel, I don't want to sell the boat. But I thought we decided to sell it. Then we can undecide.
00:55:50Those kids of yours drive you up and out of the house already this morning?
00:55:53Do you have to tell him everything?
00:55:55She's my wife. Of course she tells me everything.
00:55:58You have a name that sounds like a breakfast cereal.
00:56:01Southern Mamas been naming their baby boys unusual names for generations. It's where we get our character.
00:56:08I don't have time to squabble with you. Muriel, I really don't want to sell the boat.
00:56:12Boat? What boat?
00:56:13But we already decided to sell it.
00:56:15What boat?
00:56:16The boat that we inherited. That I didn't tell you about until just this minute. Because apparently not everything.
00:56:24Forget everything. You didn't say anything.
00:56:27Well now I'm glad I didn't because I could tell what you'd say.
00:56:29Because I know exactly what you thought. You thought you could sell that boat and bet those stupid horses and I wouldn't find out about it.
00:56:36Oh Bix, what a great idea. That never occurred to me.
00:56:40Oh, I believe I'll take myself out to the garage before I lose my temper in front of a guest.
00:56:46Bixby Chambers.
00:56:52Are you happy now?
00:56:54Well, Margie did say it's a great way to get away.
00:56:58We already contracted an agent.
00:57:00I haven't signed anything. Have you?
00:57:02We're too old. We'd fall overboard and drown.
00:57:06Margie didn't drown. Eugene said she took the boat out all the time.
00:57:09How do you know she didn't drown?
00:57:11She didn't drown?
00:57:12Well, how did she die?
00:57:14Heart attack.
00:57:15Oh.
00:57:16How did you not know that?
00:57:18I don't like to know. Knowing doesn't change anything.
00:57:21Besides, I like to remember people the way that they lived, not the way they died.
00:57:25I never knew that about you.
00:57:27Now you do.
00:57:28Look, we've tried hobbies. Painting light bulbs, Tai Chi, poetry class, drunk art class, which by the way was the only one I half enjoyed.
00:57:37Just think about it. That's all I'm saying. Please.
00:57:42I'll think about it. I'll talk it over with Bix now that he knows.
00:57:46Yes.
00:57:48Now I've got to run home before Asher wakes up and reports his car stolen.
00:57:58Don't sell that putter. I'm coming down for it this afternoon.
00:58:05You know, I think I heard that last week. Then you come in here all hang dogs and, oh, I probably shouldn't.
00:58:12Well, things have changed. The old gray mare came into a bunch of moo life. You get what I'm saying?
00:58:17I'm not sure if I do, but okay.
00:58:20You know, cows go moo.
00:58:23I think you might have your equine confused with your bovine again, but I'll take your money, pal.
00:58:29That is, if Mariel will up your allowance.
00:58:31Oh, she will. She can't resist my southern charm. Never has.
00:58:41The hell I can't.
00:58:43What made you change your mind?
00:58:49Can I walk you in?
00:58:53Love you, people.
00:58:56Love you, everybody.
00:58:58Love you.
00:58:59Bye.
00:59:00Bye.
00:59:01Bye.
00:59:02Bye.
00:59:03Bye.
00:59:04Bye.
00:59:05Bye.
00:59:09Bye.
00:59:11Bye.
00:59:12Bye.
00:59:14Bye.
00:59:15Bye.
00:59:17Bye.
01:00:18I have more fun with you than anybody.
01:00:28So, if we decide we want to keep this boat, and by the way, today was certainly no testament
01:00:36to our sea womanship, we can't leave it up north.
01:00:40Where do you think we should look to dock her?
01:00:42I don't want to put her in Lake Michigan.
01:00:44We'll never get over there enough to use her, and using her at this point might mean it's
01:00:47a floating patio for drink.
01:00:59Well, what do you think?
01:01:00I don't know.
01:01:03Maybe you're right.
01:01:04Maybe we should sell it.
01:01:05Why are you peeing on my Wheaties?
01:01:07You know, you always do this.
01:01:08Nag at me to do something until I'm excited about doing it.
01:01:11Then you don't want to do it anymore.
01:01:16You know, I have something to tell you.
01:01:18It's a secret.
01:01:19Oh, well, whatever your big secret is, a million bucks says I already know all about it.
01:01:25I'll take a check.
01:01:27What's the matter with you?
01:01:28Are you dying?
01:01:30Do you have cancer?
01:01:31Do I have cancer?
01:01:32No, I haven't known how to say it.
01:01:34Well, it must be something horrible the way you're building this up.
01:01:37You just let me tell it?
01:01:39Okay, so I was at the hospital the other day.
01:01:42Outpatient labs because I had to get an ultrasound.
01:01:44A what?
01:01:46You didn't tell me?
01:01:47Because when I had my mammogram, they told me I had this dense mass.
01:01:51Like we're strangers.
01:01:52Like she never met me before.
01:01:54Yes, ma'am.
01:01:55Because you never want to know what anybody dies of anyway.
01:01:57You're dying?
01:01:58Now she tells me she's dying?
01:01:59No, no.
01:02:00The tests came back fine, thank God.
01:02:02What I'm trying to tell you is that when Alan and I got a divorce, it wasn't because he cheated.
01:02:09What did he do?
01:02:10Drink?
01:02:11Did he hit you?
01:02:11No, no, nothing like that.
01:02:14In fact, nothing like that at all.
01:02:16I was the one who cheated.
01:02:18You?
01:02:19What?
01:02:21If you please, we're trying to have a private conversation here.
01:02:27Why would you say something like this to me?
01:02:31Because it's true.
01:02:32I don't believe it.
01:02:35I was out of town.
01:02:57Hi.
01:02:59Hi.
01:02:59Do you want a drink?
01:03:05Sure.
01:03:10I think it's time to go.
01:03:12We haven't even ordered yet.
01:03:13I'm suddenly not hungry.
01:03:16Muriel!
01:03:18Muriel!
01:03:18Muriel!
01:03:19Muriel, will you let me finish?
01:03:33Who was it?
01:03:34Does it matter?
01:03:35And Al knew that this happened and never told anyone either?
01:03:39That's kind of hard to believe.
01:03:40He knew I had an affair, but he never knew who with.
01:03:43I wouldn't tell him.
01:03:45So why are you telling me this now?
01:03:46I thought I was over it, that I'd left all thought of her behind.
01:03:51And then suddenly, after all these years, there she was.
01:03:54Where?
01:03:55At the funeral?
01:03:56I think.
01:03:58Definitely at the hospital.
01:04:02Keeping this secret feels like I've been holding my breath for 30 years.
01:04:07I guess I had to finally just let it out.
01:04:10That's what shrinks are for.
01:04:12Even if you don't understand, I feel better for having just said it.
01:04:15Well, I'm glad one of us does.
01:04:17Oh, for God's sake.
01:04:18I didn't cheat on you.
01:04:19It kind of feels like you did.
01:04:21I didn't cheat on you.
01:04:51You're my best friend.
01:04:57I'm supposed to be able to tell you anything.
01:05:00Then it seems like that might have come up at some point over the past 30 years.
01:05:13And the more he keeps putting it off, the more desperate he gets.
01:05:17And the more desperate he gets, the more irritable he gets.
01:05:21And the more...
01:05:22Well, you can go out there.
01:05:23You see how irritable he is?
01:05:24It proves my point.
01:05:25It proves you're worrying that it does want to...
01:05:27Hey, Asher.
01:05:28How do you find people online?
01:05:31What?
01:05:31You working on a class reunion or something?
01:05:34Yeah.
01:05:35Something like that.
01:05:35Okay, so first you need to log in.
01:05:41What's the matter?
01:05:42Your horse break a leg?
01:05:44What?
01:05:45What's going on?
01:05:46You've been cloudy for a week.
01:05:49Is there something I should be doing, Vix?
01:05:51Huh?
01:05:52You want to tell me exactly what it is you want me to do?
01:05:54Oh, hold on, girl.
01:05:56What are you horse whipping me for?
01:05:58Never mind.
01:05:59What'd I do?
01:06:00Nothing.
01:06:01You didn't do anything.
01:06:09Do you keep secrets from me, Vix?
01:06:12Well, of course I do.
01:06:14If this marriage was built on complete and total honesty, I don't think we'd stand a chance.
01:06:19Well, that's a hell of an attitude.
01:06:20You don't keep secrets from me?
01:06:22No.
01:06:23Bullshit.
01:06:24Well, not the really important ones.
01:06:26Oh, I know that face.
01:06:29Who are you mad at now?
01:06:31Joyce.
01:06:32She lied to me.
01:06:34Kind of.
01:06:34By omission.
01:06:35What happened?
01:06:38Ironically, I can't tell you.
01:06:40See?
01:06:41And I'm sure we're the better for it.
01:06:43As far as I'm concerned, Joyce and I are done.
01:06:47Maybe you want to rethink that position.
01:06:49Why?
01:06:50So she can lie to me some more?
01:06:51Not exactly standing room only in your social circle these days, is there?
01:06:56What's that supposed to mean?
01:06:58Just saying.
01:06:58Maybe you don't want to turn people out every time they don't agree with you.
01:07:02I don't push people away.
01:07:06Really?
01:07:07How are the kids?
01:07:15Oh, stop being right.
01:07:17I hate when you do that.
01:07:18Hey, it's me.
01:07:35I just did something crazy.
01:07:37I sent a friend request to you-know-who, and I don't even know why I did it.
01:07:41Call me and tell me what you think.
01:07:43You know you can't stay mad at me forever.
01:07:50Wanna bet?
01:07:57Oh, I'm sorry.
01:07:58Another one of your friends died.
01:08:01What?
01:08:02You're wearing your funeral clothes.
01:08:04I look like I'm going to a funeral?
01:08:06Well, yeah.
01:08:08Maybe not.
01:08:09Oh, no!
01:08:14What?
01:08:14Mom?
01:08:15Hello.
01:08:39Hello.
01:08:40Hello, hi.
01:08:41Yes, it has been a long time.
01:08:45Oh, you look good.
01:08:52Hello.
01:08:55Yes, there is a lot to tell you after all these years.
01:08:59It's just really good to see you.
01:09:00You know, you broke my heart.
01:09:09I left the diner.
01:09:11I left Al.
01:09:14I kept waiting for you.
01:09:18Looking for you to come back.
01:09:22I always knew you would, though.
01:09:24I just thought it might be a little sooner.
01:09:26But, God, it's good to see you.
01:09:29Playing in my bed, trying to hold you in my head.
01:09:41Staying falling away from all I've got left.
01:09:47I've never, you know, I know.
01:09:51Laying in bed while you're kissing.
01:09:56My fingertips, the silence is love.
01:10:01It breathes on.
01:10:06We are alive.
01:10:11We are living.
01:10:19And we're beautiful.
01:10:22I told myself that I wasn't going to let that happen.
01:10:27I know.
01:10:29Me too.
01:10:30Are you sorry?
01:10:31I don't want you to...
01:10:33Do I look sorry?
01:10:34Do I look sorry?
01:10:34Do I look sorry?
01:10:34Do I look sorry?
01:10:36Just to keep me awake
01:10:38So I'll be here with you alone
01:10:41And all you've got to take
01:10:45Will you kiss me again
01:10:47Would you ever leave your husband?
01:10:55Are you asking me to?
01:10:57Just making conversation
01:10:59We have Jeremy
01:11:02Maybe
01:11:04I don't know
01:11:05How is it that you're still single?
01:11:10You don't know that I am
01:11:11Are you?
01:11:15Yes
01:11:15And why?
01:11:18Nobody wants me
01:11:19Who?
01:11:20Who?
01:11:21Or you
01:11:22Have you ever been in love?
01:11:27You mean like roses and honey and silly love songs and stuff?
01:11:32Yeah, just like in the movies
01:11:34I don't think I'm really square
01:11:36No I won't
01:11:37I promise
01:11:38Okay
01:11:40I've been in like
01:11:41Like
01:11:42I guess
01:11:43You only get to give your heart away once
01:11:47I'm
01:11:47Waiting for the right time
01:11:49What are you thinking about?
01:12:00Nothing
01:12:01That's not your nothing face
01:12:04Let's just lay here a little while longer
01:12:10Before I have to leave
01:12:11You know you can tell me anything
01:12:14What's it say to say?
01:12:17Yeah
01:12:17I'm gonna be late
01:12:28Better?
01:12:34I guess
01:12:35Where are you going?
01:12:36Just having dinner with an old friend
01:12:37Have fun
01:12:48Have fun
01:12:48Keep it continue still
01:13:13Where's Quinn?
01:13:20Your guest is as good as mine.
01:13:21She was a no-call, no-show all weekend.
01:13:24This has been up to Tony.
01:13:25He's going to be helping us out until I hire somebody permanent.
01:13:28Tony, finish mixing up the meatloaf.
01:13:31I'm going to go get a newspaper.
01:13:33And don't let the scallop take it.
01:13:35Yes, you've got what you're wanting.
01:13:40Yes, you've got what you're wanting.
01:14:05You're exactly who I knew you'd be.
01:14:13I didn't know if you wanted dinner or what.
01:14:16The maitre d' said we can eat here if we decide to.
01:14:19Okay.
01:14:19Or we could go in the dining room.
01:14:21It's quieter here, I think.
01:14:23This is fine.
01:14:25This is fine.
01:14:30So what's it been?
01:14:31The 35, 36 years?
01:14:34Something like that.
01:14:35It's been a long time.
01:14:37You look good.
01:14:39You too.
01:14:40So what have you been up to?
01:14:42Just the highlights.
01:14:43The place of clothes before we get through 35 years, right?
01:14:45Yeah.
01:14:46That's a tall order.
01:14:48Let me see.
01:14:51I wish I know when I would be making memories along the way,
01:14:53I would have paid better attention.
01:14:55What made you come tonight?
01:14:58I'm not a cat,
01:14:59so I realize indulging my curiosity couldn't hurt.
01:15:03Right.
01:15:03So many questions.
01:15:07I know.
01:15:08Me too.
01:15:13Would you like drinks?
01:15:14Uh, Chardonnay?
01:15:16Two.
01:15:17Perfect.
01:15:17So what brings you back to town?
01:15:21Back to town?
01:15:24Oh, yeah.
01:15:25When I knew you,
01:15:26I was heading to California, right?
01:15:28Gonna make movies.
01:15:30Truth is,
01:15:32I never went anywhere.
01:15:34Frankly,
01:15:35I'm surprised it took this many years to run into you.
01:15:38Little big town that it is.
01:15:40You never left?
01:15:42No California?
01:15:44I went in a different direction.
01:15:46Where?
01:15:47College.
01:15:48Then law school.
01:15:50I worked for ACLU.
01:15:52Who knew I would get a scholarship?
01:15:54I'm not surprised.
01:15:56You might be the only one.
01:15:59Still teaching?
01:16:00I retired a few years ago.
01:16:02Now I just mainly tend to things around the house.
01:16:06Al?
01:16:07Doing fine with his second wife, I guess.
01:16:10We don't talk much now that Jeremy's grown.
01:16:12You left him.
01:16:15You stayed.
01:16:17Go figure.
01:16:20What?
01:16:22Nothing.
01:16:23That's not your nothing face.
01:16:27You always could tell.
01:16:31I want it to be 30 years ago.
01:16:33I want to change my answer.
01:16:34Yes, I would leave my husband.
01:16:36Joyce?
01:16:37I have a wife.
01:16:40Of course you do.
01:16:42I'm sorry I didn't say hello that day at the hospital.
01:16:47It's okay.
01:16:53All these years I hoped I'd see you,
01:16:55and then when I finally do, I can't open my mouth.
01:16:58I'm sorry I contacted you.
01:16:59I'm glad you did.
01:17:01I'm glad to know you're happy.
01:17:03Yes.
01:17:05I'm fine.
01:17:06I just feel...
01:17:09But...
01:17:10It sounds like it's not unfinished.
01:17:13We were a chapter in each other's story.
01:17:17Yeah.
01:17:18I guess that's what we were.
01:17:22No.
01:17:23It's like the wind, isn't it?
01:17:26You were just going to be like the wind that blew through and then disappear.
01:17:29Well, congratulations, you were.
01:17:31Joyce, where are you going?
01:17:36I'm going to leave before I embarrass myself any further.
01:17:39You didn't.
01:17:39I did.
01:17:42But I'm glad to know, finally.
01:17:45Gives me the chance to say a proper goodbye.
01:17:47Goodbye.
01:17:52Goodbye.
01:17:53Goodbye.
01:17:53Goodbye.
01:17:53Goodbye.
01:17:53Goodbye.
01:17:53Goodbye.
01:17:55Goodbye.
01:17:55Goodbye.
01:17:57Goodbye.
01:17:58Goodbye.
01:17:58Goodbye.
01:17:59Goodbye.
01:17:59Goodbye.
01:17:59Goodbye.
01:18:02Just leave them both.
01:18:18Is this Muriel?
01:18:28Chambers?
01:18:29Might or might not be.
01:18:31What are you selling?
01:18:32Don't hang up.
01:18:33This is Jeremy, Joyce's son.
01:18:36Oh, my God.
01:18:36What's happened?
01:18:37We hope you would know.
01:18:40What?
01:18:42Yeah, Mom's missing.
01:18:44We haven't seen her in like two days.
01:18:46What?
01:18:47She left the house with her last, and we haven't seen her since.
01:18:50I'm sorry, Jeremy.
01:18:51I haven't seen her in about two weeks, I guess.
01:18:55Well, damn it.
01:18:56We were hoping that she was with you, and you guys went somewhere.
01:19:00Maybe she forgot to tell anyone, because she's not even answering her phone.
01:19:05I wish I had any idea.
01:19:08When she left, she said something about meeting some old friend for dinner.
01:19:10Did she say who?
01:19:12It could be anyone.
01:19:13I mean, Ash has been helping her contact people for the class reunion.
01:19:15What class reunion?
01:19:17Yours, I guess.
01:19:18News to me.
01:19:19I haven't heard anything about...
01:19:21Wait a minute.
01:19:23What?
01:19:24I have a hunch.
01:19:26Don't worry, Ash.
01:19:27I'm sure Grandma's fine.
01:19:29Oh, I'm sure she is, too.
01:19:30She's probably just out on her boat or something.
01:19:33What boat?
01:19:34Did I say boat?
01:19:36I must be high.
01:19:38Kidding.
01:19:40But, you know, there is something you and I should talk about.
01:19:42I'm not prepared.
01:19:44I'm not prepared.
01:19:48I'm naked and new.
01:19:55I didn't have the armor.
01:20:01So I'm bear the wounds.
01:20:04Come on.
01:20:05You made me drive three hours up here to drag your happy ass home?
01:20:19What are you doing here?
01:20:21I came to find out if you're okay.
01:20:23Are you okay?
01:20:24No, I'm not okay.
01:20:28Have you ever been touched by someone so profoundly that it changes who you are?
01:20:36I made a complete fool of myself, Muriel.
01:20:40I don't know what I thought was going to happen, but trust me, it didn't.
01:20:43So you got your feelings hurt and ran away from home?
01:20:46I didn't run away.
01:20:47I sent Jeremy a text telling him where I was.
01:20:51What do you think I am, 12?
01:20:53Well, they never saw it.
01:20:54They think you're dead.
01:20:55I wish I was dead.
01:20:56Oh, people should never say that, Joyce.
01:20:59Oh, shoot.
01:21:01I didn't send it.
01:21:04You want to tell me about it?
01:21:05You're not a shrink, remember?
01:21:07I know, but maybe just this once.
01:21:10Probably sounds crazy after all this time.
01:21:13And all I remember are snapshots of her.
01:21:18Us.
01:21:21I guess you'd have to call it an affair, huh?
01:21:24I was married.
01:21:26I had no right to expect.
01:21:29Hope is a killer with a rusty knife.
01:21:31They're so stupid.
01:21:32I hoped.
01:21:35I found her online and asked if we could meet.
01:21:38I thought I'd just go in there and we'd pick off where we left off, as if 40 years hadn't gone by.
01:21:48But it has.
01:21:49Of course it has.
01:21:51She has a life and a wife and a whole world without a hole in it.
01:21:59Your life has a hole in it?
01:22:00I spent my whole life clinging to some stupid romantic memory to the detriment of my marriage
01:22:10and every other relationship I ever tried to have.
01:22:16Why didn't you ever tell me?
01:22:19It was easier not to tell you that I was a fool for someone who fooled me.
01:22:27Have you been sleeping on the boat?
01:22:29No.
01:22:31I got a hotel room.
01:22:34You do think I'm some kind of crackpot, don't you?
01:22:39It's just really sad, you know?
01:22:43In the end, all I can do is say I really screwed up.
01:22:49Oh, sure.
01:22:50Except for Jeremy and your career and all your friends.
01:22:53After all this time, it's just been like this song I couldn't get out of my head.
01:23:02Oh my God!
01:23:03Do you need me to go find three ghosts and a street urchin to cheer you up?
01:23:07Shut up.
01:23:08You don't understand.
01:23:09You have Bix.
01:23:10Ha!
01:23:10Oh, I understand more than you know.
01:23:14Bix left me years ago.
01:23:17He just never moved his clothes out of the closet.
01:23:21We are a pair then, I guess.
01:23:23Is it too early to day drink?
01:23:26It's day, isn't it?
01:23:28Or maybe...
01:23:30Or maybe...
01:23:45Got to admit, it sure is beautiful out here on the water.
01:23:49Can't argue that.
01:23:50And I do like to argue.
01:23:52Muriel, I don't want to be one of those old people who spends more time looking back than
01:23:59forward.
01:24:00If I move my head too fast right now, I'd tip over.
01:24:08Muriel, we got a lot of life left in us, the two of us.
01:24:13We've got a boat.
01:24:15Say it.
01:24:16We've got a boat.
01:24:17And nothing's stopping us.
01:24:19And nothing's stopping us from what?
01:24:22You really think we could learn to sail this thing?
01:24:25How hard can it be?
01:24:27Men do it.
01:24:31And here we are.
01:24:32I blinked.
01:24:34I forgive myself a moment of sentimentality when I think of Margie, Mary Mary, and Sweet
01:24:39Caroline.
01:24:41And for sure, everything didn't turn out the way I thought.
01:24:44Or maybe wanted.
01:24:47But that's okay.

01:25:52I'm trying to hold you in my head
01:25:55Instead of falling away from
01:25:59All I've got left of the memories and fantasies
01:26:06Of laying in bed while you're kissing
01:26:10My fingertips, the silence is low
01:26:14It breathes low
01:26:18We are alive
01:26:23We are living
01:26:28And we're beautiful
01:26:36We're all for this
01:26:43Keep the lights on just to keep me awake
01:26:52So I'll be with you longer
01:26:55And oh, for God's sake, will you kiss me again?
01:27:01Cause I'm not sure what town it is
01:27:05And all we'll have left after this
01:27:09This is all right to you, Lord
01:27:13We are alive
01:27:19We are living
01:27:25And we're beautiful
01:27:33And all for this
01:27:39And all for this
01:27:40Iguality
01:27:44And all for this
01:27:45A B
01:28:07We are alive, we are living
01:28:21And we're beautiful for this
01:28:35Keep the lights on just to keep me awake
01:28:45So I'll be waiting longer
01:28:49And oh, for God's sake, will you kiss me again?
01:28:55Cause I'm not sure what time it is
01:28:59And all we'll have left after this is our letters
