All language subtitles for Ladies.Room.1999.720p.BluRay.x264.AAC-[YTS.MX]

Have you been here before?

No.

There must be a door somewhere.

I had no idea.

Come.

The night is here.

It feels like an eternity just to get
your turn.

It's because men build ladies' rooms.

You never see them waiting in line to
go. Oh, I used to blame men for

everything. Try women who run with wool.

It changed my whole perspective. Listen.

I can hardly find the energy to walk the
dog, let alone run with wolves.

Is that a get -naked -in -hell group?

I wish.

This is odd.

What's this about?

I have no idea.

Some kind of practical joke.

This is a very peculiar ladies' room.

Excuse me.

Do you know what we're doing here?

Waiting for our maker.

You mean makeover?

Uh, not exactly.

Lines. They make me crazy. I can't stand
the wait. I'm sorry, darling, but this

is one line you're just gonna have to
endure.

But I don't even know why I'm here.

I know, I know.

Nobody knows.

Did you see that? She lost her space.

Where are we?

Ever heard of purgatory?

Purgatory?

The ladies from Dead's Purgatory?

That's right, dear. The timeless place
where we re -examine our lives before

moving on.

No!

Oh, my

God.

I need you.

I'm on this bridge.

That's the dream?

Yes. And I'm standing over the stream.

Yeah? And it's got like... No, it's not
a stream. It's more of gates with a

canal. Water. That's the issue. Yeah.
And there's Bill down below waving at

I nod to him and I... Like I'm saying to
him, sure, go ahead, honey. And he

jumps in.

The water?

Yeah. And he's swimming, sort of smiling
at me.

And...

and I don't know what happens. He
changes, his face changes and he's

I know he's not going to make it.

Damn, that's morbid as hell.

Oh my God, it gets worse because he was
taken in like a whirlpool and being

dragged under and I was just getting
like little glimpses of him

There was a brunette woman beckoning to
him, really a beautiful young woman and

so I'm on the bridge and I'm trying to
get to him but I can't.

And that's it.

Well, maybe, you know, maybe she was
like you in the past, you know?

No, I don't think so.

I don't think so. Maybe it was a
premonition.

Yeah, I don't think so.

I think you just got pretty jitters, you
know? Forget about it. Yeah, well, I

never remember my dreams.

Oh, my God!

Holy shit!

Whoa! It's a flood!

Ricky! Ricky!

Oh, my God!

I take it back.

It was a premonition. Look, there's
Bill.

Okay,

the lights have been done. Everything's
ready for the first act. Thank you very

much, gentlemen.

Everything's great.

What? Dan! What?

Dan!

Dan! Have you seen our dressing rooms?
They're completely flooded.

It's a catastrophe.

How are we going to go on to previews in
two hours?

I'm just hearing about it now.

It looks like the Titanic down there,
okay? I want Harry here. I want to know

we can have the day off. This is
impossible.

You're not going to have the day off.

Give me five minutes. Have I ever let
you down? No.

So there you go.

Thank you, Miss Barker.

A bottle of champagne while we wait two
hours for previews?

Champagne, it'll be okay, guys.
Everybody downstairs with mops. Now,

go.

I'll go get the glasses. All right.

Thank you for watching.

Thank you.

Bill wasn't entirely to blame.

Men are dictated by their hormones, and,
um... I seduced him.

Did you really think that old sexual
game would fly, Julia?

When the balls are full, the brain is
empty.

It's an old Yiddish proverb.

Bill.

Bill!

I want your undivided attention.

No, I'm not going to be playing
supporting roles forever.

Okay, I am ready now.

Julia, you're 22.

Don't you think you might need a little
time to learn?

I don't need to learn. I'm already
there.

I was born here.

Oh, this isn't retina surgery, you know?
It's a little more instinctual.

I think that instinctive might be the
word you're looking for.

Whatever.

Who?

Me? No, baby. Not you. I'm sorry,
Maggie.

I hope not. Listen, my stuff's in the
room, but I have to work in the

Everything's wet.

Can you manage without me? I think we
can handle it.

Gentlemen, that was the app.

All I need is one great heart.

Baby, write it for me.

Eve.

I don't know that I could write
something for you.

Okay.

Okay.

Come up before me, okay?

All right.

All right? I would really appreciate
that. No, no, no, no, no. This way.

Dan, where are you taking us?

It's a little grim, but it should do for
the moment. At least we've got power on

this side.

The ladies' room?

That I can do.

You're lucky you're so damn cute, Dan.

By the end of the first act, your
dressing room will be dry and clean.

Is everything okay, Miss Larkin?

Everything is okay, Dan.

Gotta go.

You know, it's been ages since we shared
a dressing room.

Do you know what this reminds me of? No.

Do you remember...

Look back in anger?

How can I forget?

Oh, God, five actors in the same room
the size of a kiosk.

My God, by the end, we were all looking
back in anger.

You know, that was 20 years ago.

Oh, shut up!

What the hell is going

on around here, Dan?

Some kind of problem with the pipes.

It just happened.

I don't get it.

Do you ever, Dan?

What do you

think? This place stinks. That's what I

think.

Where am I supposed to go now, Dan?

That's what I wanted to tell you. I'm
not sharing with Ricky.

Actually, you're sharing with Ricky and
Gemma.

Close and cozy, huh?

You got that right.

After you had sex with Bill, you
actually sat down next to his wife?

Must have been horrible.

Where's Maggie?

She's over in wardrobe.

We're on our own. Fuck.

Am I sitting here?

Sure.

What do I do?

Ricky, help her.

Well, why don't you start with number
three?

Where? In the case here.

Lower deck.

What am I looking for exactly?

Green. You'll be wearing green today.
You're a little high in the color, you

know. Need to tone down the cheeks,
maybe.

It's probably just riding the bike.
Maybe I didn't have my visor shut.

Oh, yeah.

Riding the bike.

That would do it.

Well, I think she looks good.

I wish I looked that good.

What is it?

Previews or are you in love?

I never knew the difference.

They both make me nauseous.

I guess because both audiences and
lovers keep you on edge.

You never really know how they feel
about you.

Whatever.

Am I missing something here?

Would your girlfriend dump you again or
something? Christ, I'd say you had your

period if I thought you had any female
hormones.

Wow. A lesbian joke. That's my favorite.

First of all, girly.

My girlfriend did not leave me.

She has impeccable taste.

And second of all...

I am not the victim of some freak
accident or freak of nature like your

grandmother probably told you. I just
happen to like women.

Let me rephrase that.

Some women.

I'll remove you from that equation.

Dan,

may I come in?

Come in.

She's arrived for Miss Barker. Oh, good.
Just put them anywhere.

You got a card with that?

Sure. Thank you.

Julia.

This is only the first draft, but I
think it's not too far off the mark.

Anyway, I really hope you enjoy reading
it.

Christelle is really based on you.
Right.

Bill loved it. Okay, thanks, Dan.

Bye -bye.

You didn't even see him.

No, I brushed him off.

That's the thing about nice guys.

It's like we're conditioned not to even
notice them.

Why is it we always go for the
inaccessible?

Good old bed of nails.

Now, you see, there is a good -looking
guy with lots of talent who absolutely

adores you.

So God only knows why.

You know, maybe you two should get
together.

Dan? Yes, Dan.

Why not?

Because he's too young.

And he's an idiot.

Besides, everyone in this town is a
budding playwright.

Oh, yeah, like budding actors are really
hard to come by.

Well, uh, I don't like young guys.

They're too risky. I want a guy who's
already made it.

Well, apparently he's really good.

I mean, even Bill says so, right, Jim?

Jim?

Yeah, promising.

Yeah, well, promises get broken.

And so do dreams.

What the... Nothing.

Nothing.

Two nothings.

That could be a something.

It's just this card.

They'll

send me

flowers with this card.

And for the first time, there are only
five kisses.

Oh, what a bastard.

I mean, the next thing you know, they'll
be beating you senseless with a

crowbar.

Hello, Angels Anonymous.

That's me.

I was there.

Oh, my God, how embarrassing.

What is next, group therapy?

My name is Lauren. Would you like to
tell me yours?

Yes. No, um... You sound anxious. Are
you in any immediate danger?

Could you give me your exact location?

You don't get it. Yeah.

No, I... Hello?

You can tell me.

Listen. Listen, I'm here.

I'm here for you. You can tell me
everything you want, okay?

Talk to me, please.

Hello? Hello?

Hello?

You don't get it.

He always sends seven kisses. It's his
lucky seven.

Well, maybe the flower lady forgot.

No.

He writes them himself. He's a writer
after all, Ricky.

Jesus, God forbid. Someone should mess
up one of his lines.

I used to joke about it with him.

I used to say to him,

you're obsessive compulsive.

It had to be the seven, not the six, not
the eight.

It had to be the seven.

Those were his exact words.

He said, hey you, if you're going to be
my leading lady, well then, you'll have

seven kisses.

No more, no less.

Maybe saving him up for private.

From an adoring fan.

Thank you, Maggie.

Maybe he's already given him away.

Where is Bill?

Packing. He leaves this afternoon.

I don't know, Jenna.

I've been with you on this. I mean, even
if he did just forget subconsciously.

Still a flop in the face.

Enter at your own risk.

Ladies, we're on in 50 minutes.

We're on in 50 minutes. What are you
doing? What?

It's all right. I'm a big girl.

Go on, Julia.

That's all, really. I mean, I just don't
understand how anybody could make it in

this business for more than five
minutes.

Well... Bill and Gemma have been
together for over 15 years, and I say

pretty damn good.

Well, they had a few good rounds.

Well, I can't live my life like that. I
mean, I would rather trust and be a fool

than never have trusted at all.

Yeah, well, me, I'd have a contingency
plan.

Well, you'd need one. Everybody needs
one. Man is not a faithful animal.

Well, that's where you're wrong.

Humans are genetically predisposed to
pair bond for life.

I read that somewhere.

Human, geese, and something else. I
don't remember.

Shoes? Shoes don't have a pulse, idiot.

What's wrong, Ricky? The whole nature
versus nurture debate getting to you?

Ooh, another lesbian joke.

Wow, and it's only been what?

Ten minutes?

What's the matter, girlie? You afraid to
come out of the closet?

Because it's been on your mind a hell of
a lot.

Oh, my, my, muffies.

be very touchy this afternoon.

Ladies, we're on in 15 minutes.

Yeah, Dan, we know.

Okay, this whole man mating for life
idea, uh -uh. Maybe in the wild.

But that's a contingency plan, too. I
mean, any animal who's young or

vulnerable, that's why they bond. A
better shot at survival.

That's creepy.

Scratch the itch and move on.

Animals are eminently practical.

I think I envied this girl's social
life. Now I know all she does is sit

and watch reruns on the Discovery
Channel.

Keep going. I'm depressed, but
interested.

Okay, Gemma.

Classic example. When you were a kid,
you listened to records, right? On a

record player.

Okay, now I'm really depressed.

But if that record player broke, you got
it fixed, right? I mean, there was

somebody who could actually fix it.

Yes, I guess.

Yeah, I remember that, yeah. Okay, well,
what now? I mean, our whole culture is

based on the fact that if you can afford
to purchase, then you have power, but

nothing lasts for more than three years.
I mean, cars, CDs, washer -dryers,

everything breaks pretty damn quick.

Maybe you're just heavy -handed. And you
know why?

Built -in obsolescence. I mean, the
manufacturers actually build stuff so

it will break in three years.

That's why there's always some guy
trying to sell you warranty insurance.

Because they know that shit is going to
blow.

Listen, what has that got to do with
Bella Gemma? I'm just saying.

It's like TV and fast food, extended
credit. You know, it's like, get it now.

Well, the whole thing is about immediate
empowerment.

Okay, don't you see? The message, the
hidden message is move on.

Move on to a better...

Like, a better thing, a better person.

And when you get there, guess what? It's
time to move on again.

God.

That's quite a lot.

What about this, then?

Not everyone lives like that.

Oh, what, happy ever after?

Nobody gets to see that. I mean, even
kid stories draw the line there. Happy

ever after.

Nobody even knows what that bit looks
like. Only that it's a terrifying

Forever.

Without change.

Better than waking up for the millionth
time alone.

I don't have to wake up alone.

I doubt I ever will.

Just another way of being lonely.

Right. Well, variety is the spice of
life.

I don't want to be fighting over the
toothpaste somewhere down the line.

I don't want to...

Look over at someone and think, if that
man clears his throat one more time, I

will scream the house down.

Yeah, I blew it. I mean, the minute it
came out of my mouth.

Bill has this thing about clearing his
throat before he speaks like every time.

Everybody in the room knew it.

God, you have no idea what it was like
sitting there.

How about Gemma?

Did you ever consider her feelings?

Or were you too busy being wrapped up in
your own little agenda?

What made you so cynical at 22?

Articulate. Oh, I give you that.

I'm not cynical.

I'm just from a different age, is all.

Well, I think it's tragic.

Why? Because I know how to protect
myself?

Because I'm not sentimental?

No.

Because you're emotionally barren.

I used to know an old Jewish woman who
used to have the same worldview as

but she had tattoos on her arm. She'd
lived through the Holocaust.

It is not that depressing.

It's not once you see it for what it is.

In fact, it is positively liberating.

I know how the world operates, and I can
use it to my advantage. I can get what

I want, and I will.

I'm saying that I like the speed.

It's my pace.

What made you so angry?

God, you scare me.

You should be scared.

You know, I don't buy into your instant
empowerment theory of yours.

Because we have choices.

Of course, there are things that Bill
has done that irritate the hell out of

But I know them.

They're like my old friends by now.

You want to know what the trade -off is?

I don't have to speak in footnotes for
him to understand me.

He's already there.

If you're so close, then how come you're
freaking out about some card he sent

you, huh?

Because it would tear me apart if he
left me.

You know...

The more you give, the more you receive.
The more you share, the more you care.

It's like compound interest.

You want to know what empowerment is?

It's freedom, Julia.

Freedom to be who you are and like
yourself.

That's the key.

Free to be able to share your fears and
secrets.

And know that they're safe.

I know that might not sound very sexy to
you.

But there is comfort in knowing someone
for 15 years.

Comfort? That would come quite low on my
list of needs.

Well, maybe you've never known it. Yeah,
I'm not sure I care.

Well,

thank God you're not sure. It's a turn
of phrase.

No. It's a profound love.

It's a union.

You have this with Bill?

Yes, I do.

And if he were to die tomorrow or leave
me, whichever, I would have no regrets

that I spent every single morning waking
up to his brilliant and firing head. A

little older every day, but that's okay,
because we all are, at the end of the

day, obsolete.

That's why every precious minute counts.

Every human relationship, every passing
moment, good or bad, as long as we

connect and communicate and as long as
we share our secret stories, well, then

there's a point.

But to pass each other in the night like
ships and call it progress,

that's a kind of dying.

That's a death of a soul.

Break a leg. Cheers, baby.

You're on in five, Ms. Barker. Okay,
thanks, Dan.

I'll be waiting in the wings.

Gemma?

Break a leg.

I hope

you feel like the scum that you are.

God, Julia.

Have you no sense of loyalty?

You're like a cuckoo trying to kick
somebody else's eggs out of the nest.

Well, go build your own nest.

It makes any difference to you how you
turned me down.

That's... That's why I was so mad. I was
just so... Humiliating.

I can't believe you even tried.

God, you know how tight those two are.

Gemma is the one that drives him. Listen
to her.

She's the writer.

Him too.

Together they're a team, but apart
they're... They're nothing.

Bill knows that. He's no fool.

Yeah, I guess.

I just... I just wanted a better part.

I just... I just wanted someone to
believe in me.

Gemma believes in you.

That's why you're here.

I know you don't like to hear this, but
you are young.

There's no hurry.

Work for it.

Ask Gemma.

She's been there before.

She'll understand your frustration. She
can help you.

That's good there.

That might be the one.

When I walked in, he was there.

With his black velvet eyes, he knew how
to caress me inside and out.

And with a smile that filled my soul.

And he said, hello, my name is Filippo.
And I said, excuse me, I'm old enough to

be your mother.

Ricky was right.

Gemma is an extraordinary woman.

She became my mentor instead of my
enemy.

You were very lucky. Most women would
have ripped you to shreds.

As if you weren't lucky, Laura.

Me?

Oh, no, you must be mistaken.

Oh?

No, really. I was completely innocent.

You must believe me.

Of course.

New shoes.

Oh, bowling again, huh?

No, I'm going to the opera.

That was a joke.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm a little nervous.

Hello, Angels Anonymous.

My name is Lauren. Would you like to
tell me yours?

No.

I'm sorry.

No, sorry.

We are not that kind of service
organization.

No, I couldn't.

Sorry.

Another one.

I have no jewelry.

I'll be too sad. It's all I have.

No, they're fine.

So is he handsome?

Yes. He's older.

I think I need an older man, you know.

So what did he do?

Hey, you're worse than my mother.

I have no special life. Throw me some
scraps.

Business. He's in some kind of business.

Business? Yes, well, we're all in some
kind of business.

Is he coming to pick you up?

No, but he's sending a car for me. I'll
meet him at the opera house.

How exciting.

Yeah, I know.

This is the first time we're going
anywhere important together, even though

not official yet.

Official? What do you mean official?

You have to get a special security pass
to see this guy? No.

He's just... It's hard to explain. He
has to be cautious about keeping his

private life private.

Yeah. Because of work. He's kind of high
profile.

Bye. Bye.

Lauren, take these.

These are transmitter.

And that way I can feed you lines in
case you get stuck.

They were my mother's.

They're beautiful.

Now, go on. Get out of here before I
spontaneously combust with envy.

And, Lorne. Yes?

You do make sure that he treats you
well, yeah?

Kelly, he treats me like an angel.

Bye.

So he should, because that's what you
are.

You really bought that thought?

Or is it what therapists call being in
denial?

In my case, I would say gullible.

As soon as a guy looks into my eyes and
tells me I'm adorable, my training flies

right out the window. It's like being
colorblind.

Hey, I went to that benefit.

No. Yeah, with Gemma and Dan, right
after our matinee performance. She and

are old friends.

No.

You were the one?

Believe me, madame.

The husband and the wife.

Madame. Of five years, no male of the
aristocracy ever, he

ever blew it. It was always the wife.
Anne Boleyn, Mary Stewart.

Uh, Beatrice, huh?

Back then it was a snap. Back then, what
you'd do is you'd frame your wife,

okay? You'd have a Speedy Gonzales
trial, and you would get the state to

her head. Thank you very much. Now, they
didn't really care for this, the hot

shots of the day. They bombed, okay?

The next morning, Bellini and Romani,
they tore at each other.

They tore strips off each other, and
they made it very public, too. They

totaled, in effect, their whole
relationship over this.

For life.

Hello, gorgeous.

Hi.

I think I could consider going straight
at this moment.

It's Roberta Brillinare, girlfriend.

Surprise!

I thought you had decided to stay alone.

Well, I wasn't going to leave you alone
on your birthday. Are you kidding?

You don't think I'd do that?

Oh, I hate surprises, Lutie.

Oh, don't be so stuffy.

Come on, kiss me.

One more, please.

What did you say it was?

Champagne with a white base. Oh, thank
you.

Well, I thought it was a wine.

It is very linear.

Excellent. Lucia, you look fantastic.

I'm so happy you made it.

Hey. This is so exciting.

Happy birthday!

I'm so happy.

This is Dan.

The two of you. And Roberto.

Dan.

Happy birthday, Roberto.

Guess what?

I'm producing.

What?

Dan wrote a great play and Julia loves
it. So I'm going to do it.

It's amazing.

No, in fact, hold them all, please.

Thank you.

So now we have two things to celebrate.
Three, actually.

What do you think of that birthday boy?
I think it is wonderful.

My congratulations.

Thank you very much.

Roberto,

you know the previews were fantastic
this afternoon. You can't imagine. Bill

wrote a gorgeous, gorgeous play, and I
want you to come see it. I want to tell

you from the bottom of my heart that I'm
so proud of you for this. You know I do

so much for the children's arts.

Oh, no.

I forgot.

The children.

Would you mind if I have the children?

To fly up my legs like you.

What am I saying?

Roberto, what happened?

You got hung up.

I thought you'd abandoned the stairs in
favor of rogues and crimps. Is it

crimpits or crimps?

What were you doing carrying on like
this in front of all those men?

I wasn't doing anything. I was just
talking about you.

I saw what I saw.

All those dirt men were looking at that.

That's a beautiful dress.

You really like my dress?

These are the shoes.

Look, they match.

Matching shoes, that's good.

One for each foot. I mean, they match
the dress.

And you've done a torso incredibile with
your matching.

I'm sorry, you have to go home. You
can't stay here tonight.

It's been a terrible mix -up.

Mix -up? My wife showed up.

X! Why?

My ex -wife.

Now.

Oh.

My ex -wife.

See, terrible mix -up.

Yes. You have to go home now.

Now, I've just arrived. What about
having dinner together?

We have clients who arrive. My wife is a
big, big saleholder. The world is a

corporate secret.

We didn't want to make the Japanese
nervous.

The rigid morals.

No, don't do that.

It's not a gun, you know.

Which one is your wife?

It's probably a real nice person.

How could he come and show up here
without letting you know? You're a

billionaire.

Don't you mean to be a good person?

Yes, yes. Now you know exactly.

My wife is not perfect.

Not like you.

Now I must go down and see my friend.

They don't look Japanese to me.

That's exactly what they want you to
think. They even hid their cameras.

I have a

little regalo for you.

I'm going to ruin my business.

I can't resist you any longer.

What are you doing?

I must get in place, go home, and make

familiar with you.

Don't worry, I'm not going to foil your
party!

I can do this all night.

Bravo, Roberto. Do you think you can
teach everyone to fly?

Did you break it?

No. You're the best. You are the best.

This is my husband, Roberto.

I just wanted to ask you... Excuse me. I
know where to go. I'll see you there in

a minute. I just have to powder my nose.

Enough!

Your nose is fine.

No, Sunji, please let go of my hand.

No, not now. You'll miss the opening
scene.

What are you so jumpy about?

Why are you so jumpy?

Professor,

why are you so jumpy? No, no, please.

Don't leave me alone. I don't want to be
alone.

I love you too, Sunji. Sweet Abapini.

Is that Abapini? Hey, no. No, no. Hey.

Don't move.

What is it? It's... No,

it's... Yes, it's an eyelash infected.

We must wash it out with water upstairs
and the lady... No, because the water

down here, it's coming from just above.

No, forget it. I'm going to go down
here. No, no. No, here. The water is

from directly from upstairs.

Roberto, I'm going to wipe myself.

I'm very troubled.

Don't go too far away.

Did you get you something?

Anything?

No.

Thank you.

Do you want to talk about it?

Is that what you're crying about?

You obviously don't know the Beatrice
Latenda story.

She's about to be accused of adultery,
tortured, convicted and beheaded.

Not so romantic, huh?

Considering she was framed by her
husband.

I'm dead. Did I say something wrong?

Please don't spoil your evening.

You're missing the show.

It's too late.

Curtains up, they won't let me into the
next house.

I don't know if I listen to you in here
or the soprano out there.

What's the difference?

Worse lessons.

I don't know.

Oh, come on out. There's nobody here. I
feel like a priest in a confessional.

I can't go out there. I look terrible.

Wait till you see me. I look like
Quasimodo.

But I can't face him.

He told me to leave.

You mean he's here?

But not with me.

Where's Schmuck? I can't...

I can't believe he asked

you to go home and wait.

Yes, and what's even funnier, he thought
I would.

Boy, was he in for a big surprise.

The ship was about to hit the fan.

What have we got here?

Did you take one of these?

One of what?

Lipsticks and perfumes and samples from
the sponsors.

All kinds of things. Oh, quick, come and
choose something.

It's for the children.

Free?

Lipstick? Yeah.

Oh, wow, there's tons of it.

So who's wearing waterproof mascara
these days?

I wasn't counting on crying.

Well, never mind.

There's nobody here and there's all this
stuff we can try out. We've got remover

and everything here.

I'm so embarrassed.

Oh, why?

Because I came here tonight feeling like
Cinderella, enchanted in love, trying

to fit into a world where I do not
belong.

But maybe I could, thinking he would be
a wonderful husband.

Oh, dear.

American man.

No, no, he's Italian.

Oh, really?

Italian men love German women.

My husband's Italian.

No. Yes.

No. Isn't that a coincidence?

Oh, dear.

Latin lovers.

I'm Lucia.

Lauren.

That's not a German name. No, no. I'm
named after my father's American

girlfriend. Oh.

What did your mum say?

She just liked the name.

What happened to you?

Oh, I poked in the eye.

Oh, my God.

You know, that's a great dress, really,
Cynthia.

Really? Mm, it's beautiful.

Well, whose is it?

It's mine.

I mean, who's the designer?

Oh, actually, it's not even mine.

I rented it. No, really?

Yeah. I'm bearing a two -week paycheck
and I don't even own it.

I don't know who the designer is.
They're just like me.

Can you tell it's rented? I mean, does
it look cheap?

Oh, God, no.

No?

Yeah, well, that was a waste of money.

My dates took me up.

But you said he was here.

I know.

I feel like such a club.

His wife showed up with some Japanese
clients.

No, no.

It's not like it sounds. He's divorced.

But he had to do business functions with
her sometimes, just like brother and

sister, that's all.

Oh, I see.

Did you meet her?

Well, no, but... It's just that he's
after her.

Sounds strange to me.

I know. I know how it sounds.

But she really let herself go, though.
She's kind of run down. That can happen,

you know.

Poor woman. Wouldn't want to be in her
shoes.

I didn't see her shoes.

Was this your dress?

Mine?

Gooseberry bush.

Oh, maternity.

I must go and put my feet up.

Lie down. Bye.

That is so amazing.

You're kidding.

No, boy or girl.

Oh, I'm going to save that till the day.

It's really moving. Do you want to see
it? May I? Yes, feel that.

Did you feel that? Yes, it's awesome. I
felt it. I felt it move.

Oh, whenever I eat chocolate, he gets
very excited.

Hello.

You know the kid here now?

Do you play music?

I think all it hears is my digestive
system working all the time.

God, I couldn't bear the suspense.

I'd have to know right now.

Bye.

I put my sister through her trifles.

You're doing classes?

Experience is something I prefer to gain
in retrospect.

Wow, who said that?

I did. Why, did I throw my voice or
something?

No, I miss most of the classes.

To be quite honest, they freak me out.

Oh, no, you should go. It really helps.

Yeah, but whenever I do, I feel like
tooting.

Endless films of badly dressed women
having cesareans.

Those are hospital gowns.

Believe me, fashion will be the last
thing on your mind.

Impossible.

The night rain. Oh, what a relief.

Now I need some thread.

No, it's got to be the hair of the
mother. Thread's no good.

Wrong electricity.

Here, you take it.

Here, girls, now hold still, okay?

Don't laugh.

It's a girl. It's a girl.

It can't be.

Wait a minute. Clockwise is for girls
and anticlockwise is for boys.

Backwards for boys. Sounds right.

Look, it's going back again.

I'm getting motion sickness.

Give me another one of those chocolates.

I think it's going to be my last one.

How many did you eat so far?

This is going to be my last one.

It better be, if you don't want to turn
into a balloon.

Lucia, what is it?

I've got some hot fatties.

No, no, no, that's menopause.

Whatever.

Wait a minute.

I know exactly what can make you feel
better.

Now you're feeling better.

This shore is so beautiful.

It's cold.

It's not cold in here.

Lucia?

You want to see what he gave me?

Yes,

show me.

You don't like it?

You don't think it's pretty, beautiful?

Lucia.

Lucia?

I jumped?

What happened to you?

Talk to me!

What about me?

I was just as shattered as she was.

Yeah, but she was married to him.

So?

Still claiming innocent.

All right.

So let's get this straight.

So, you're Roberto's mistress?

Well, I guess so. I don't know anymore.

I thought I just had a nice boyfriend,
and suddenly I'm a mistress.

You mean these are real diamonds?

Don't change the subject.

He said you were ugly.

Oh, great.

I mean, the other woman. What?

She showed me another.

Good guess. What can I say? You were
men.

Divorced.

Divorced? What do you think this is? A
cushion?

I'm having Roberto's baby.

You said it wasn't cheap.

Well, I lied.

Quick, get in the store. Get in your
store. Why? People are coming.

There's a scandal.

Child.

I need some air.

Oh, my God.

Pronto?

No, I'm sorry. That's the wrong number.

It's, uh, your mother.

Yes? Yes, well, of course it sounds like
your son -in -law. That's because it

is. I mean, it was.

Yes, ma 'am, how many times have I told
you not to ring on this number? This is

my ex -husband's business line.

Yes. Yes, as of half an hour ago.

Yes, I know you never liked him.

So, well done.

You were right.

Okay? Are you happy now?

Let me get my hands on you.

I believe you know Lauren, do you?

Lauren? Yes.

Lauren, this Lauren!

Ah, the, the, ah.

This Lauren, yes. Of course I know
Lauren.

But we haven't seen each other in a long
time.

How long has it been?

About 15 minutes.

Yes, of course. But before that it was
ages.

Like brother and sister.

No, no, no.

That's not what I said. Oh, yes, you
did. No, she's putting words

in my mouth.

And you better get yourself a lawyer.

You're going to need one.

Okay. If that was me, Snudgy would have
been pushed off the ledge.

I wasn't thinking.

He humiliated me, pretending he didn't
know me.

I would have killed him, but... You know
he was going to be a father.

Don't you think that's taking Ange's
anonymous a little bit too far?

Where was I?

You were saying my dress was cheap.

Yeah, well, you never crossed a pregnant
woman. Didn't anyone ever tell you

that?

I'm so sorry. It's all my fault.

I'm so goddamn naive.

I had no idea.

He did tell me it's been years since
you... I mean, he swore there was

between you and that you were just like
brother and sister, only business.

Yeah, well, brother and sister.

Tells you a lot about his family.

Oh, my God.

Don't. Don't have a baby. That would be
too surreal. No.

I can't believe this is Roberto.

Oh, you better bloody believe it.

Maybe it's Brixton Hicks.

I told you it's Roberto.

We don't all have the morals of a... You
are right. Like snakes, it's false

labor. What is false goddamn labor, you
imbecile?

No one I go to get help. Paramedic,
paramedic, paramedic.

Call the ambulance.

Do you speak English? She is having a
baby there. Go ahead, push her. I'm

coming.

You said you did classes, huh?

Yes. Okay, breathe, breathe.

In and out.

In and out.

Yes. Is there some other way? These are
pretty regular contractions. I think

you're in midterm. No, first stage. Stop
going on. We're in the paramedics.

Okay, clear your mind. You have to trust
me.

Come on, let's walk. Let's walk.

Yes, that's fine.

Yes, that's fine. I want drugs.

Oh, I'm serious. Drugs popped into my
brain. You'll get them later. I promise

you, I'm not going to get any worse.

Oh, fuck off.

It's okay.

It's okay.

You can control the pain through
breathing.

Believe me, huh?

Trust me. Oh, trust you.

Here. Why not?

Shut up and clear your mind.

Here. That's better. Now, I want you to
imagine you're on a desert island.

It's warm.

What is all this?

Phony psychology nonsense.

It's not phony nonsense. It's my
profession. I'm a therapist.

In your hand, you hold a balloon.

Hold it.

A pink balloon.

I hate pink.

A purple balloon with the word pain
written on it.

Yes, pain.

I pulled out all the stops, everything I
knew from my training.

I was desperate. I think I was more
scared than she was.

Why did you put yourself through that?

She was having that boyfriend's baby.

It's a tiny pink dot. It's purple.

Yeah, purple dot.

Okay, now hold it and breathe out.

Imagine you're on a desert island.

You've said this bit before.

Yeah, you've heard it before. Hey,
listen to the rhythm. It's like a

Concentrate, okay?

Imagine you're on a desert island and
you hand your hold of the moon.

I'm not in the ladies' room in some
compromising position with some tart

my head with travel augmented. No,
you're not.

I think it's coming. No, it's not
coming.

Okay, okay.

Forget that image altogether. Now, blow
out the candle. Blow out the candle. Do

not push. A bloody candle. What the hell
are you talking about?

God, imagine there's a candle between
you and me and you're going to blow it

out. That would kick me. You'd be like
this little guiding light of mine. I'm

going to let it shine.

Take my little light round the world.
No,

no, blow. Here's the candle. Here's the
candle. Come on. Come on. Blow.

Look at me.

Look at me. Blow.

Short pants. Hey, look at me.

Then it got worse. I didn't know what to
do. What if the baby came?

I fainted at the sight of blood.

That's why I became a therapist instead
of a doctor.

Yes, look at me. Don't stop. There's no
pain. There's nothing.

Yes.

No, it's not coming.

Okay.

Sorry I called all those names, okay?

That's nothing. You should have heard my
sister.

You've done this kind of thing before. I
just thought you'd change, that's all.

Save your breath.

You need all your strength.

Good heart, you know.

I hope it mends.

Yeah, well, I just seem to give it away
to all the romance.

I don't want to be alone.

I can't do this.

Yes, you can. No, I can't.

Please.

Please, I'm scared.

Come with me.

I don't know, Lucia.

Roberto might be there.

It's a lot to ask, I know.

She is having a debate.

Wait, wait.

I'm the husband.

You know this man?

No.

Kind of cute. It was almost snoozy, sort
of way.

Yes, he was yummy.

But was it worth the price of self
-respect?

Get back off.

Who are you to judge us?

No,

if we're here to be judged, then fine,
but you don't have to rub it in our

faces. No one is passing judgment. It's
all in your mind, darling.

Don't give me that crap. You've been on
our cases since we got here.

I only have questions.

They're your answers, not mine.

Life is a series of moments, an
opportunity to grow. What one does with

to the individual.

Are you saying we didn't take
responsibility?

A very wise man once said, the answer is
always in the question. What do you

think?

Hey! Back to your places.

I knew it all along.

I just didn't want to look at the truth.

Okay, I'll cop to it. I did the same
thing.

So what does that get us, a trip to
hell?

Only if you get into blame.

What is with this riddle shit?

Can't you just give us one straight
answer?

Well, if it's answers that you want, why
not find out for yourselves? All you

have to do is open the door.

Come on, Julia.

You're a tough guy.

Have a little faith in yourself.

What do we have to lose?

So far, she's been on the mark.

What's going on?

Are you okay?

What happened?

We had an accident.

My

face.

It's fine.

It's okay.

It happened so fast, I was just coming
from the plane.

I know. I didn't even see you.

We're really lucky.

We could be dead.

I've heard people talk about these type
of incidents.

They claim it's a wake -up call from
God.

My office is just around the corner.
Would you like to go there for a cup of

coffee?

I think right now I could use a really
stiff drink.

There's a bar down the street.

Come on.

What are you waiting for?

I can't believe that.

I'm looking to remember.

I can't believe it.

Thank you.

is is

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.
