1
00:01:59,828 --> 00:02:03,624
(Elliot) God, she's beautiful.
She's got the prettiest eyes.
2
00:02:03,749 --> 00:02:06,251
She looks so sexy in that sweater.
3
00:02:07,211 --> 00:02:10,589
I just want to be alone with her
and hold her and kiss her,
4
00:02:10,714 --> 00:02:14,801
and tell her how much I love her
and take care of her.
5
00:02:14,927 --> 00:02:17,804
Stop it, you idiot!
She's your wife's sister.
6
00:02:17,930 --> 00:02:23,268
I can't help it. I'm consumed by her.
It's been months now.
7
00:02:23,393 --> 00:02:26,855
I dream about her,
I think about her at the office.
8
00:02:27,898 --> 00:02:30,776
Oh, Lee. What am I gonna do?
9
00:02:31,902 --> 00:02:35,822
I hear myself mooning over you,
and it's disgusting.
10
00:02:37,074 --> 00:02:39,952
Before, when she squeezed
past me in the doorway
11
00:02:40,077 --> 00:02:42,621
and I smelt that perfume
on the back of her neck...
12
00:02:42,746 --> 00:02:46,166
Jesus, I thought I was gonna swoon.
13
00:02:46,291 --> 00:02:49,753
Easy. You're a dignified
financial advisor.
14
00:02:49,878 --> 00:02:51,880
It doesn't look good for you to swoon.'
15
00:02:52,005 --> 00:02:53,423
Elliot?
16
00:02:53,548 --> 00:02:56,134
- Elliot? Sweetheart?
- Mm?
17
00:02:56,260 --> 00:03:00,305
Have you tried these? They're wonderful.
Holly and her friend made them.
18
00:03:00,430 --> 00:03:03,684
Fantastic.
Your sister is an unbelievable cook.
19
00:03:03,809 --> 00:03:06,687
I know, I know.
She has all the cooking talent.
20
00:03:06,812 --> 00:03:09,731
- No, you've got tons as well.
- I've eaten five of these.
21
00:03:09,856 --> 00:03:13,652
- Holly, why don't you open a restaurant?
- Mm, we practically are.
22
00:03:13,777 --> 00:03:18,699
Well... not a restaurant, but...
April and I are gonna do some catering.
23
00:03:18,824 --> 00:03:21,159
- What? You're kidding.
- No, we decided.
24
00:03:21,285 --> 00:03:22,911
Perfect.
25
00:03:23,036 --> 00:03:26,581
We like to cook for friends, so...
until an acting job comes through,
26
00:03:26,707 --> 00:03:29,001
we could make money
doing private parties.
27
00:03:29,126 --> 00:03:32,921
- Great idea. That's where your talent lies.
- I know.
28
00:03:33,046 --> 00:03:35,507
Get outta here.
Could I speak to you privately?
29
00:03:35,632 --> 00:03:37,926
I'm her husband. She tells me anything.
30
00:03:38,969 --> 00:03:41,346
Hannah, I need more money.
Don't get upset.
31
00:03:41,471 --> 00:03:44,308
- I never get upset over that.
- This is the last time.
32
00:03:44,433 --> 00:03:47,269
- I'm keeping strict accounts.
- Please, don't insult me.
33
00:03:47,394 --> 00:03:50,314
- Someday I'll pay it all back.
- I know. How much do you need?
34
00:03:50,439 --> 00:03:52,524
- $2,000.
- Uh-huh.
35
00:03:52,649 --> 00:03:56,653
I know it's a lot, but April and I have
this catering idea. It's gonna be great.
36
00:03:56,778 --> 00:03:58,739
You admit that we're great cooks.
37
00:03:58,864 --> 00:04:02,868
In order to get started, there are a few
things to buy and some old debts to pay.
38
00:04:02,993 --> 00:04:05,787
Just tell me one thing.
Are we talking about cocaine again?
39
00:04:05,912 --> 00:04:09,875
I swear. We've already got
some requests to do dinner parties.
40
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:14,379
Obviously I'm not gonna be a caterer
for ever. We both still go on auditions.
41
00:04:14,504 --> 00:04:18,258
Something could come up at any
moment, but the parties are at night.
42
00:04:18,383 --> 00:04:21,678
I can still take my acting class.
I haven't clone drugs in a year.
43
00:04:21,803 --> 00:04:26,433
♪ A whimpering, simpering child again

00:04:27,059 --> 00:04:31,188
♪ Bewitched, bothered
and bewildered... ♪
45
00:04:31,313 --> 00:04:34,900
Mom and Dad are floating
down memory lane again.
46
00:04:35,025 --> 00:04:38,779
- Have you tried Holly's shrimp puffs?
- They're fantastic.
47
00:04:38,904 --> 00:04:43,367
I need an antihistamine for Mom's
asthma before she turns into Camille.
48
00:04:43,492 --> 00:04:45,494
Mom's Camille when she gets up
in the morning.
49
00:04:45,619 --> 00:04:49,331
- At least she isn't drinking.
- Doesn't she look great in that dress?
50
00:04:49,456 --> 00:04:51,708
She knows it
cos she's flirting with the men.
51
00:04:51,833 --> 00:04:56,129
When she's 80, she'll stop straightening
her garter belt when there's a guy around.
52
00:04:56,254 --> 00:05:00,258
- Where's the antihistamine?
- Elliot's got them somewhere.
53
00:05:01,676 --> 00:05:04,346
- Frederick didn't come with her.
- When does he ever?
54
00:05:04,471 --> 00:05:08,016
He's such an angry...
He's such a depressive.
55
00:05:08,141 --> 00:05:10,685
- I thought she was moving out.
- I don't know.

Watch out, you guys! Beep-beep!
61
00:05:26,785 --> 00:05:30,956
Your kids are so adorable.
It gets so lonely on the holidays.
62
00:05:31,081 --> 00:05:34,543
Oh, gosh. Well, that's why
I invited Phil Gammage tonight.
63
00:05:34,668 --> 00:05:37,879
- Hannah, he's such a loser.
- He's not a loser at all.
64
00:05:38,004 --> 00:05:41,341
- He's the head of Daisy's school.
- He reminds me of Ichabod Crane.
65
00:05:41,466 --> 00:05:44,344
His Adam's apple jumps up and down
when he gets excited.
66
00:05:44,469 --> 00:05:47,556
He's a lot better than your ex-husband.
He's got a good job.
67
00:05:47,681 --> 00:05:49,850
- He's not a dope addict.
- Give me a break.
68
00:05:49,975 --> 00:05:52,561
- Am I interrupting any sister talk?
- (Hannah) Mm-mm.
69
00:05:52,686 --> 00:05:56,064
Good, because there are no
interesting single men at this party.
70
00:05:56,189 --> 00:06:01,361
Well, listen. Maybe April would like Phil.
Phil Gammage? The tall guy?
71
00:06:01,486 --> 00:06:04,197
Oh, yeah, I met Phil.
He looks like Ichabod Crane?
72
00:06:04,322 --> 00:06:07,534
I love that. That's my type.
No, really!
73
00:06:09,119 --> 00:06:11,079
No, we mustn't get discouraged.
74
00:06:11,204 --> 00:06:15,625
Hannah will invite some men over
who don't look like Ichabod Crane.
75
00:06:15,750 --> 00:06:20,797
Maybe at Christmas, or if not Christmas,
New Year's, or maybe next New Year's.
76
00:06:20,922 --> 00:06:22,048
Ouch!
77
00:06:22,174 --> 00:06:24,509
- It must be here some place.
- (Lee) Oh, you know?
78
00:06:24,634 --> 00:06:26,970
I love that book you lent me,
"The Easter Parade".
79
00:06:27,095 --> 00:06:29,723
You were right.
It had very special meaning for me.
80
00:06:29,848 --> 00:06:32,058
How's Frederick? He didn't come.
81
00:06:32,184 --> 00:06:34,895
You know Frederick, one of his moods.
But it wasn't a bad week.
82
00:06:35,020 --> 00:06:37,230
- He sold a picture.
- Oh, great.
83
00:06:37,355 --> 00:06:40,901
Yeah, it was one of his better drawings,
a very beautiful nude study.
84
00:06:41,026 --> 00:06:42,694
Actually, it was of me.
85
00:06:42,819 --> 00:06:47,240
It's a funny feeling to know you're being
hung naked in a stranger's living room.
86
00:06:47,365 --> 00:06:51,161
But you can't tell it's me, although...
You're turning all red, Elliot.
87
00:06:51,286 --> 00:06:53,413
Oh, really?
88
00:06:53,538 --> 00:06:56,291
- So what else? What are you up to?
- I don't know.
89
00:06:56,416 --> 00:06:58,460
My unemployment cheques
are running out.
90
00:06:58,585 --> 00:07:01,379
I may do a course at Columbia
with the last of my savings.
91
00:07:01,505 --> 00:07:03,632
- Like...?
- I don't know, exactly.
92
00:07:03,757 --> 00:07:05,800
Sociology, psychology maybe...
93
00:07:05,926 --> 00:07:08,220
I always thought I might like
to work with children.
94
00:07:08,345 --> 00:07:11,515
Incidentally, I always have clients
who are furnishing places.
95
00:07:11,640 --> 00:07:15,852
Someone might be interested
in buying art. Shall I call you?
96
00:07:15,977 --> 00:07:19,356
Yeah, sure. Frederick would
really be grateful for a sale.
97
00:07:19,481 --> 00:07:21,316
(Hannah) Guys, dinner's ready!
98
00:07:21,441 --> 00:07:23,568
You look so beautiful. Doesn't she?
99
00:07:23,693 --> 00:07:27,489
I bumped into your ex-husband on
the street the other day. He's still crazy.
100
00:07:27,614 --> 00:07:31,201
- He was on his way to get a blood test.
- Mickey's such a hypochondriac.
101
00:07:31,326 --> 00:07:35,372
I wonder how he'd handle if there was
ever anything really wrong with him.
102
00:07:35,497 --> 00:07:39,251
- (Glass being tapped)
- Now, ladies and gentlemen...
103
00:07:39,376 --> 00:07:41,670
- Dad! Dad!
- (Glass rings)
104
00:07:41,795 --> 00:07:44,965
- Dad!
- No, now this is a toast...
105
00:07:45,090 --> 00:07:48,009
This is a toast. This is a toast.
106
00:07:48,552 --> 00:07:55,016
You know, this beautiful Thanksgiving
dinner was all prepared by Hannah.
107
00:07:55,141 --> 00:07:58,144
I had a little help from Mavis.
Also, Holly and April...
108
00:07:58,270 --> 00:08:02,023
No, no. You did it. She did it.
109
00:08:02,691 --> 00:08:04,693
And we drink to her,
110
00:08:04,818 --> 00:08:10,699
and we congratulate her on her wonderful
accomplishment during this last year.
111
00:08:10,824 --> 00:08:13,910
Her great success in "A Doll's House".
112
00:08:14,035 --> 00:08:16,079
(All) Hurray!
113
00:08:17,581 --> 00:08:20,667
I played Nora.
I'd hate to tell you what year.
114
00:08:20,792 --> 00:08:25,130
And it's very difficult to behave
like Torvalds little chipmunk
115
00:08:25,255 --> 00:08:29,050
without making a perfect ass
out of yourself.
116
00:08:29,175 --> 00:08:33,471
Now, I think that Ibsen would've been
damned proud of our Hannah.
117
00:08:33,597 --> 00:08:35,432
Speech! Speech!
118
00:08:35,557 --> 00:08:38,268
No, no. I've been very, very lucky.
119
00:08:38,393 --> 00:08:40,770
When I had the kids,
I decided to stop working
120
00:08:40,895 --> 00:08:44,899
and just devote myself to having
the family, and I've been very happy.
121
00:08:45,025 --> 00:08:49,154
But I've always secretly hoped that
maybe some little gem would come along
122
00:08:49,279 --> 00:08:51,698
and tempt me back on the stage
just for a second.
123
00:08:51,823 --> 00:08:56,578
Now I got that out of my system, I can go
back to the thing that makes me happy.
124
00:08:56,703 --> 00:08:59,247
Bravo! Bravo!
125
00:09:12,010 --> 00:09:16,222
Is it my imagination or does Elliot
have a little crush on me?
126
00:09:16,348 --> 00:09:19,601
It's funny.
I've had that thought before.
127
00:09:19,726 --> 00:09:22,228
He pays a lot of attention to me
all the time.
128
00:09:22,354 --> 00:09:25,774
And he blushed tonight
when we were alone in the bedroom.
129
00:09:25,899 --> 00:09:28,735
I wonder if he and Hannah are happy.
130
00:09:28,860 --> 00:09:33,657
It's funny, I still feel a little buzz
from his flirting.'
131
00:09:39,079 --> 00:09:42,165
- Want some coffee or tea?
- (Frederick) No, thank you.
132
00:09:42,290 --> 00:09:45,251
- How about something to eat?
- No, nothing.
133
00:09:45,377 --> 00:09:47,837
- Are you sure?
- Absolutely.
134
00:09:47,962 --> 00:09:50,674
What am I gonna do with you? God!
135
00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,719
Why didn't you come tonight?
We all had a terrific time.
136
00:09:54,844 --> 00:09:56,846
I really think you would've
enjoyed yourself.
137
00:09:56,971 --> 00:10:01,434
I'm going through a period of my life
where I just can't be around people.
138
00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:06,022
- I didn't want to abuse anyone.
- You wouldn't. They're all so sweet.
139
00:10:06,147 --> 00:10:09,359
Lee, you are the only person
I can be with,
140
00:10:09,484 --> 00:10:11,778
who I really look forward to being with.
141
00:10:11,903 --> 00:10:15,490
You're too harsh with everyone.
You know that, don't you?
142
00:10:17,325 --> 00:10:21,329
- Isn't it enough that I can love you?
- You're such a puzzle.
143
00:10:21,454 --> 00:10:25,583
So sweet with me, and
so contemptuous of everyone else.
144
00:10:25,709 --> 00:10:29,087
There was a time when you were
very happy to be only with me.
145
00:10:29,212 --> 00:10:32,966
You wanted to learn everything
about poetry, about music.
146
00:10:33,091 --> 00:10:37,721
Have I really taught you everything
I have to give? I don't think so.
147
00:10:41,933 --> 00:10:45,645
Elliot said he might have
a couple of clients for you.
148
00:10:45,770 --> 00:10:48,982
I'm sure those morons he handles
have a deep feeling for art.
149
00:10:49,107 --> 00:10:52,819
You never know, they might.
He was just trying to do the nice thing.
150
00:10:52,944 --> 00:10:55,196
- Because he likes you.
- Me?
151
00:10:55,321 --> 00:10:58,074
Yeah. Elliot lusts after you.
152
00:10:58,199 --> 00:11:00,285
Based on what? You never even see him.
153
00:11:00,410 --> 00:11:01,703
Based on...
154
00:11:01,828 --> 00:11:04,956
Whenever you see him, you come home
full of books he's recommended.
155
00:11:05,081 --> 00:11:09,210
- Or films you must see, or...
- Oh, no, no. He's my sister's husband.
156
00:11:09,335 --> 00:11:13,757
I think if you gave him half a chance,
you'd like him. He's very intelligent.
157
00:11:13,882 --> 00:11:16,926
He's a glorified accountant
and he's after you.
158
00:11:17,969 --> 00:11:21,973
And I prefer to sell my work to people
who appreciate it, not to rock stars.
159
00:11:24,017 --> 00:11:26,060
You understand?
160
00:11:27,187 --> 00:11:28,813
(Chuckling)
161
00:11:34,235 --> 00:11:38,156
- They won't let us do the sketch?
- Standards and Practices say it's dirty.
162
00:11:38,281 --> 00:11:41,493
We showed them the rehearsal. They
just figured out what the words mean?
163
00:11:41,618 --> 00:11:45,121
- Mickey, we got a half-hour to air.
- The show is five minutes short.
164
00:11:45,246 --> 00:11:49,542
- How? We timed everything long.
- With no sketch, we're ten minutes short.
165
00:11:49,667 --> 00:11:53,755
- How can they do that to us?
- It's because our ratings are low.
166
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,382
- I have a migraine.
- Hey, Mickey! Listen.
167
00:11:56,508 --> 00:12:00,303
You better go to Ronny's dressing room.
He took about 1600 Quaaludes.
168
00:12:00,428 --> 00:12:03,681
- I don't think he can do the show.
- Why me, Lord?
169
00:12:03,807 --> 00:12:07,393
You Standards and Practices?
Why, all of a sudden, is the sketch dirty?
170
00:12:07,519 --> 00:12:09,979
Child molestation is
a touchy subject...
171
00:12:10,104 --> 00:12:13,066
- Half the country's doing it!
- Yes, but you name names.
172
00:12:13,191 --> 00:12:16,903
- We don't. We say "The Pope".
- That sketch cannot go on the air.
173
00:12:17,028 --> 00:12:20,990
Hey! Who changed my sketch
about the PLO?
174
00:12:21,115 --> 00:12:23,409
I had to make cuts.
It's four lousy lines.
175
00:12:23,535 --> 00:12:26,579
- The whole premise is ruined!
- It's not so delicate.
176
00:12:26,704 --> 00:12:31,376
- Everybody's married to every line.
- I don't care! Don't tamper with my work.
177
00:12:31,501 --> 00:12:34,128
- OK...
- You want 'em cut? I'll cut 'em myself.
178
00:12:34,254 --> 00:12:38,967
Mickey, listen. Instead of the child
molestation sketch, why don't we repeat
179
00:12:39,092 --> 00:12:41,845
the Cardinal Spellman-Ronald Reagan
homosexual dance number?
180
00:12:41,970 --> 00:12:46,057
- I don't feel good, Mickey.
- What did you do? Swallow a drugstore?
181
00:12:46,182 --> 00:12:48,476
- I lost my voice.
- Oh, Jesus!
182
00:12:48,601 --> 00:12:51,813
Ronny, you know,
you do have to go on in 25 minutes.
183
00:12:51,938 --> 00:12:54,941
Does anybody got a Tagamet?
My ulcer's starting to kill me.
184
00:12:55,066 --> 00:12:57,110
You want a Quaalude?
185
00:12:57,986 --> 00:13:00,613
(Mickey) Christ!
This show is ruining my health.
186
00:13:00,738 --> 00:13:02,866
Meanwhile, my ex-partner
moves out to California
187
00:13:02,991 --> 00:13:07,203
and every stupid show he produces
turns out to be a big hit.
188
00:13:07,328 --> 00:13:10,498
Brother, what am I gonna do
with my life?
189
00:13:10,623 --> 00:13:14,210
Speaking of that, I gotta remember
to see my ex-wife tomorrow.'
190
00:13:17,964 --> 00:13:19,632
- Hi.
- I know, I know.
191
00:13:19,757 --> 00:13:24,345
- Glad you could put in an appearance.
- I got two minutes. The show's killing me.
192
00:13:24,470 --> 00:13:27,307
I got a million appointments today.
It just fell this way.
193
00:13:27,432 --> 00:13:30,894
- I gotta see new comedians...
- Just two minutes on your sons' birthday.
194
00:13:31,019 --> 00:13:34,105
- It's not gonna kill you.
- Happy birthday, fellas!
195
00:13:34,230 --> 00:13:36,482
Daddy brought presents!
196
00:13:36,608 --> 00:13:40,278
Hey, a little hug? What is this?
How about a little action from the kids?
197
00:13:40,403 --> 00:13:42,739
- How is everything?
- Everything's good, everything's fine.
198
00:13:42,864 --> 00:13:46,242
OK, you can open the presents now.
I wanna get a little reaction.
199
00:13:46,367 --> 00:13:48,328
- How's Elliot?
- He's fine.
200
00:13:48,453 --> 00:13:53,041
I'm trying to convince him to produce
a play. I think he'll find that satisfying.
201
00:13:53,166 --> 00:13:56,836
I like him. I think he's a sweet guy,
the few times that I've met him.
202
00:13:56,961 --> 00:14:00,632
Cos he's a loser. He's awkward
and he's clumsy, like me.
203
00:14:00,757 --> 00:14:03,760
- I like an underconfident person.
- This is really nice.
204
00:14:03,885 --> 00:14:07,055
- He's been wanting a mitt.
- You have good taste in husbands.
205
00:14:07,180 --> 00:14:09,599
Thanks. That's a beauty!
206
00:14:09,724 --> 00:14:12,018
Isn't that great? Come on, let's go!
207
00:14:12,143 --> 00:14:15,021
Go out by the Sung vase
and catch this. See?
208
00:14:15,146 --> 00:14:16,940
- Watch the...
- (Crash)
209
00:14:17,065 --> 00:14:18,858
(Mickey) Hannah's sweet,
210
00:14:18,983 --> 00:14:22,278
although sometimes I still do
get angry when I think of things.
211
00:14:22,403 --> 00:14:25,990
What the hell.
At least I'm not paying child support.
212
00:14:26,115 --> 00:14:29,118
God, I hope there's nothing
physically wrong with me.'
213
00:14:29,243 --> 00:14:32,997
- So what's the problem this time?
- I really think I have something.
214
00:14:33,122 --> 00:14:36,209
I'm absolutely convinced,
not like that adenoidal thing,
215
00:14:36,334 --> 00:14:39,629
where I didn't realise I'd had them out
when I was younger.
216
00:14:39,754 --> 00:14:43,633
I saw your father this week about his
sinus and he complained of chest pains.
217
00:14:43,758 --> 00:14:47,595
Well, this guy's the real hypochondriac
of the family. He's, you know...
218
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,515
- You said you'd had some dizziness.
- Yes, a little.
219
00:14:50,640 --> 00:14:53,559
And I think I'm developing
a hearing loss in my right ear.
220
00:14:53,685 --> 00:14:58,356
Or my left ear. No, I'm sorry...
My right or my left ear. I can't remember.
221
00:14:58,481 --> 00:14:59,941
OK, let's take a look.
222
00:15:21,337 --> 00:15:25,967
Well, you have had a significant drop in
the high-decibel range in your right ear.
223
00:15:26,092 --> 00:15:27,385
Really?
224
00:15:27,510 --> 00:15:30,888
Have you been exposed
to a loud noise recently, or had a virus?
225
00:15:31,014 --> 00:15:35,476
No, I've been perfectly healthy. You know
me. I always imagine that I have things.
226
00:15:35,601 --> 00:15:40,440
- When did you first notice this?
- About a month ago. What do I have?
227
00:15:40,565 --> 00:15:45,028
You've had some dizzy spells.
What about ringing or buzzing?
228
00:15:45,153 --> 00:15:47,238
Yes, now that you mention it,
229
00:15:47,363 --> 00:15:50,033
I have buzzing and also ringing.
230
00:15:50,158 --> 00:15:52,660
Ringing and buzzing. Am I going deaf?
231
00:15:52,785 --> 00:15:54,704
- It's just in one ear?
- Yes.
232
00:15:54,829 --> 00:15:58,082
Is it healthier to have problems
in both ears?
233
00:15:59,542 --> 00:16:02,587
I'd like to make an appointment
for you at the hospital.
234
00:16:02,712 --> 00:16:06,507
- I'd like to have them run some tests.
- The hospital? What kind of tests?
235
00:16:06,632 --> 00:16:08,760
Now, don't get alarmed.
236
00:16:08,885 --> 00:16:13,264
These are more sophisticated audiometry
tests than I can run here. It's nothing.
237
00:16:13,389 --> 00:16:16,142
Then why do I have to go
into the hospital at all?
238
00:16:16,267 --> 00:16:20,563
I hear fine. So I'm a little weak on
the high decibels. I won't go to the opera.
239
00:16:20,688 --> 00:16:23,816
There's no reason for panic.
I just wanna rule out some things.
240
00:16:23,941 --> 00:16:27,904
- Like what?
- It's nothing. Will you trust me?
241
00:16:28,029 --> 00:16:33,326
Hello, Dr Wilkes? This is Mickey Sachs.
I wanna ask you a question.
242
00:16:33,451 --> 00:16:35,203
Sure, Mickey. What's up?
243
00:16:35,328 --> 00:16:38,081
If you have a hearing loss in one ear,
244
00:16:38,206 --> 00:16:43,836
and it's not from a virus or a loud noise
or anything, what are the possibilities?
245
00:16:43,961 --> 00:16:49,884
Anything. Often it's hereditary.
Flu. Even a small noise'll do it.
246
00:16:50,009 --> 00:16:51,803
Right, but nothing worse?
247
00:16:51,928 --> 00:16:56,808
Well, yes, I guess the dark side
of the spectrum is a brain tumour.
248
00:16:58,434 --> 00:17:00,478
Really?
249
00:17:00,603 --> 00:17:03,773
- OK, so here's the new pages.
- Did Cards get these?
250
00:17:03,898 --> 00:17:06,109
- Not yet, no.
- Let's hope it's good.
251
00:17:06,234 --> 00:17:10,321
Yeah, really, really.
We'll be down in a minute, OK?
252
00:17:10,446 --> 00:17:13,699
- (Phone ringing)
- Mickey, what's the matter with you?
253
00:17:13,825 --> 00:17:16,577
I feel dizzy, you know.
I don't feel well.
254
00:17:16,702 --> 00:17:19,413
Do you hear a ringing?
ls there a ringing sound?
255
00:17:19,539 --> 00:17:21,290
Yeah, yeah. I hear it, I hear it.
256
00:17:21,415 --> 00:17:23,042
- No, not that.
- Hello?
257
00:17:23,167 --> 00:17:25,628
Yeah, we're gonna be
working late tonight.
258
00:17:25,753 --> 00:17:27,755
No, we'll order out, it's all right.
259
00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:30,049
If I have a brain tumour,
what am I gonna do?
260
00:17:30,174 --> 00:17:33,386
You don't have a brain tumour.
He didn't say you had one.
261
00:17:33,511 --> 00:17:37,682
No, they're not gonna tell you because
sometimes the weaker ones will panic.
262
00:17:37,807 --> 00:17:40,101
- But not you?
- God!
263
00:17:40,226 --> 00:17:44,522
- Can you hear buzzing?
- Come on, we got a show to do.
264
00:17:44,647 --> 00:17:48,025
- I can't keep my mind on the show.
- But there's nothing wrong with you.
265
00:17:48,151 --> 00:17:51,404
If there isn't, why does he want me
to come back for tests?
266
00:17:51,529 --> 00:17:54,323
- He has to rule out certain things.
- Like what?
267
00:17:54,448 --> 00:17:58,327
- I don't know. Cancer.
- Don't say that. I don't wanna hear that.
268
00:17:58,452 --> 00:18:02,456
- Don't mention it while I'm in the building.
- You don't have any symptoms.
269
00:18:02,582 --> 00:18:05,042
I got the classic symptoms
of a brain tumour.
270
00:18:05,168 --> 00:18:08,087
Two months ago, you thought
you had a malignant melanoma.
271
00:18:08,212 --> 00:18:12,049
Naturally. The sudden appearance
of a black spot on my back!
272
00:18:12,175 --> 00:18:16,596
- It was on your shirt.
- Was I to know? Everyone was pointing.
273
00:18:16,721 --> 00:18:20,725
- We've got to make booking decisions.
- I can't think of it.
274
00:18:20,850 --> 00:18:24,604
This morning I was so happy.
Now I don't know what went wrong.
275
00:18:24,729 --> 00:18:26,606
You were miserable this morning.
276
00:18:26,731 --> 00:18:30,234
We got bad reviews, terrible ratings,
the sponsors are furious...
277
00:18:30,359 --> 00:18:33,905
No, I was happy,
but I just didn't realise I was happy.
278
00:18:38,159 --> 00:18:40,870
(Woman) These things are delicious!
What in the world are they?
279
00:18:40,995 --> 00:18:44,373
- Those are quail eggs. Aren't they good?
- They're very good.
280
00:18:44,498 --> 00:18:47,168
My friend April makes those.
Try a shrimp puff.
281
00:18:47,293 --> 00:18:50,379
- Oh, thank you. That looks good.
- I make those.
282
00:18:51,339 --> 00:18:52,715
Excuse me.
283
00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,550
Oh, thank you.
284
00:18:55,801 --> 00:18:58,012
- The stroganoff is ready.
- We're a big hit!
285
00:18:58,137 --> 00:19:02,183
In this we are. Yesterday I auditioned for
"Come Back Little Sheba". Not such a hit.
286
00:19:02,308 --> 00:19:04,977
You will be.
You'll get five jobs next week.
287
00:19:05,102 --> 00:19:09,065
- Excuse me. Are there any more clams?
- Yeah, a few. Do you like 'em?
288
00:19:09,190 --> 00:19:11,776
- I can't resist.
- Really? How flattering.
289
00:19:11,901 --> 00:19:15,613
- Did you try the shrimp puffs?
- You are too attractive to be caterers.
290
00:19:15,738 --> 00:19:17,740
- Something's wrong.
- We're actresses.
291
00:19:17,865 --> 00:19:20,493
- Is this your first job?
- Really? ls the food that bad?
292
00:19:20,618 --> 00:19:21,869
No, not at all.
293
00:19:21,994 --> 00:19:25,331
We need more bread and
béchamel sauce for the lasagne. Hi.
294
00:19:25,456 --> 00:19:28,084
You're an actress with
a great flair for shrimp puffs.
295
00:19:28,209 --> 00:19:32,338
No, the shrimp puffs are Holly's.
I do the crépes caviar.
296
00:19:32,463 --> 00:19:35,341
- The quail is responsible for the eggs?
- Let's hope so.
297
00:19:35,466 --> 00:19:38,219
Here, I stole you a couple of extra clams.
298
00:19:38,344 --> 00:19:40,304
Incidentally, I'm David Tolchin.
299
00:19:40,429 --> 00:19:43,099
- April Knox. Hi.
- You're Holly?
300
00:19:43,224 --> 00:19:46,143
Yeah. We're the Stanislavski
Catering Company.
301
00:19:46,269 --> 00:19:50,898
Now I'll tell you the truth. I really came in
because I was bored stiff by the party.
302
00:19:51,023 --> 00:19:52,817
How are we more interesting?
303
00:19:52,942 --> 00:19:56,070
Actually, I'm gonna listen to "Aida",
if I'm not in your way.
304
00:19:56,195 --> 00:19:57,488
(Both) No, not at all.
305
00:19:57,613 --> 00:20:01,534
We saw Pavarotti in "Ernani"
at the Met, and I cried.
306
00:20:01,659 --> 00:20:03,494
I cry at the opera.
307
00:20:03,619 --> 00:20:06,831
(April) I go limp in the last scene
of "La Traviata".
308
00:20:06,956 --> 00:20:09,709
Me too.
I have a private box at the Met.
309
00:20:09,834 --> 00:20:14,171
I bring a bottle of wine. I open it, I sit
there, I watch and I cry. It's disgusting.
310
00:20:14,297 --> 00:20:16,507
- What do you do?
- I'm an architect.
311
00:20:16,632 --> 00:20:19,719
- What kind of things do you build?
- Are you really interested?
312
00:20:19,844 --> 00:20:21,637
Yeah.
313
00:20:21,762 --> 00:20:24,056
What time do you get off?
314
00:20:26,017 --> 00:20:28,686
(Holly) The red one?
(April) It's magnificent!
315
00:20:28,811 --> 00:20:30,771
The design's deliberately
noncontextual,
316
00:20:30,896 --> 00:20:33,983
but I wanted to keep
the atmosphere of the street
317
00:20:34,108 --> 00:20:36,736
and the proportions
and in the material.
318
00:20:36,861 --> 00:20:40,531
- That's unpolished red granite.
- Is that what it is?
319
00:20:40,656 --> 00:20:43,200
- It has an organic quality about it.
- Right.
320
00:20:43,326 --> 00:20:47,747
Almost entirely, wholly interdependent,
if you know what I mean.
321
00:20:47,872 --> 00:20:52,251
I can't put it into words.
The important thing is, it breathes.
322
00:20:52,376 --> 00:20:56,130
You know, people pass by vital
structures in this city all the time
323
00:20:56,255 --> 00:20:58,007
and never appreciate them.
324
00:20:58,132 --> 00:21:00,509
I get the feeling you tune
into your environment.
325
00:21:00,634 --> 00:21:02,720
Oh, it's really important.
326
00:21:02,845 --> 00:21:05,431
- What are your favourite buildings?
- Wanna see some?
327
00:21:05,556 --> 00:21:08,017
- Yeah.
- Well, let's do it.
328
00:21:52,228 --> 00:21:55,272
(Holly) It's just so romantic,
I just wanna put on a long gown
329
00:21:55,398 --> 00:21:58,442
and open the French doors
and go on the balcony.
330
00:21:58,567 --> 00:22:02,947
(David) It's romantic. And it's got
a handsome partner sitting beside it.
331
00:22:03,072 --> 00:22:07,660
They fit right in together. And your eye
goes along, lulled into complacency.
332
00:22:07,785 --> 00:22:12,123
- Look at this.
- (April) That's disgusting. A monstrosity.
333
00:22:12,248 --> 00:22:15,126
(Holly) It's really terrible,
and it ruins everything else.
334
00:22:15,251 --> 00:22:19,380
(David) It does.
(April) We have seen a lot of stuff today.
335
00:22:19,505 --> 00:22:23,092
- Maybe we should go home.
- Oh, jeez, yeah.
336
00:22:23,217 --> 00:22:27,388
- Who gets dropped first?
- Oh, gee, I don't know.
337
00:22:27,513 --> 00:22:32,226
- Well, I live downtown.
- Yeah, we both live downtown.
338
00:22:32,768 --> 00:22:35,354
- It depends on what way you wanna go.
- I know.
339
00:22:35,479 --> 00:22:41,110
If we took Fifth,
then we'd get to your house first.
340
00:22:41,235 --> 00:22:46,240
- Yeah, but Fifth is so jammed, isn't it?
- Well, sometimes.
341
00:22:46,365 --> 00:22:48,617
- You live in Chelsea, don't you?
- Yeah.
342
00:22:48,742 --> 00:22:51,954
Well, I guess if you live in Chelsea,
that's probably first.
343
00:22:52,079 --> 00:22:54,373
- Oh, OK.
- And then April.
344
00:22:54,498 --> 00:22:56,125
Great.
345
00:23:02,381 --> 00:23:07,386
Naturally, I get taken home first.
Obviously he prefers April.
346
00:23:07,511 --> 00:23:10,014
Of course,
I was so tongue-tied all night.
347
00:23:10,139 --> 00:23:12,892
I can't believe I said that
about the Guggenheim!
348
00:23:13,017 --> 00:23:17,146
My stupid little roller-skating joke.
I should never tell jokes.
349
00:23:17,271 --> 00:23:20,733
Mom can tell 'em, and Hannah,
but I kill 'em.
350
00:23:20,858 --> 00:23:26,322
Where did April come up with that stuff
about Adolph Loos and "organic form"?
351
00:23:26,447 --> 00:23:30,117
Well, naturally, she went to Brandeis.
352
00:23:30,242 --> 00:23:32,870
But I don't think she knows
what she's talking about.
353
00:23:32,995 --> 00:23:35,623
Could you believe the way
she was calling him "David"?
354
00:23:35,748 --> 00:23:40,628
"Yes, David." "I feel that way too, David."
"What a marvellous space, David."
355
00:23:40,753 --> 00:23:43,380
I hate April. She's pushy.
356
00:23:43,881 --> 00:23:47,843
Now they'll dump me
and she'll invite him up. I blew it.
357
00:23:48,928 --> 00:23:51,180
And I really like him a lot.
358
00:23:52,014 --> 00:23:55,518
Oh, screw it. I'm not gonna get
all upset. I've got reading to do.
359
00:23:55,643 --> 00:24:00,814
Maybe I'll get into bed early, turn on
a movie and take an extra Seconal.'
360
00:25:23,856 --> 00:25:27,484
- Oh, my goodness!
- Oh, Elliot! What are you doing here?
361
00:25:27,610 --> 00:25:30,988
- I'm looking for a book store.
- In this section of town?
362
00:25:31,113 --> 00:25:35,159
Well, yes, I'm killing time. I have
a client near here and I'm quite early.
363
00:25:35,284 --> 00:25:36,869
- How about you?
- Well, I...
364
00:25:36,994 --> 00:25:40,039
Oh, yes! You live near here, don't you?
365
00:25:40,164 --> 00:25:43,334
- Where are you headed?
- I was just going to my AA meeting.
366
00:25:43,459 --> 00:25:46,545
Why do you still go to those?
You never touch alcohol.
367
00:25:46,670 --> 00:25:48,964
You didn't know me before Frederick.
368
00:25:49,089 --> 00:25:52,092
I'd start with a beer
about ten in the morning.
369
00:25:52,217 --> 00:25:56,430
- You must've been very unhappy.
- Yeah, unhappy and fat.
370
00:25:56,555 --> 00:25:59,183
And I still find the meetings
very comforting.
371
00:25:59,308 --> 00:26:03,896
I'll never understand it. You're so
bright and charming and beautiful...
372
00:26:04,021 --> 00:26:07,274
I think to myself, "What problems
could she possibly have?"
373
00:26:07,399 --> 00:26:10,319
Don't let me get started
on my childhood.
374
00:26:10,444 --> 00:26:14,114
Oh, know what? There is a book store
a couple of blocks from here.
375
00:26:14,239 --> 00:26:17,284
If you don't know about it,
you should. You'd love it.
376
00:26:17,409 --> 00:26:19,453
Well, if you have some free time?
377
00:26:19,578 --> 00:26:21,622
- Yeah, sure.
- Thank you.
378
00:26:23,457 --> 00:26:26,085
(Lee) Isn't this great?
They have everything here.
379
00:26:26,210 --> 00:26:28,671
- (Elliot) Yes, it's wonderful.
- What book did you wanna buy?
380
00:26:28,796 --> 00:26:30,798
- What?
- You wanted to buy a book.
381
00:26:30,923 --> 00:26:34,510
No, I'm killing time.
I just want to browse.
382
00:26:34,635 --> 00:26:37,680
You sure picked the right place,
you can stay all afternoon,
383
00:26:37,805 --> 00:26:39,556
not buy anything and just read.
384
00:26:39,682 --> 00:26:43,310
Unless, if you have some time,
we could get some coffee.
385
00:26:43,435 --> 00:26:46,355
- No, I don't have time.
- No, I understand completely.
386
00:26:46,480 --> 00:26:49,233
No problem. You're busy. I...
387
00:26:49,358 --> 00:26:52,194
- You seem tense. Everything all right?
- No, no.
388
00:26:52,319 --> 00:26:54,113
- No?
- Uh, yes.
389
00:26:54,238 --> 00:26:55,906
- Everything's OK?
- Yeah.
390
00:26:56,031 --> 00:26:58,575
- How are you?
- I'm... all right.
391
00:26:58,701 --> 00:27:01,161
- How's Frederick?
- Fine.
392
00:27:01,286 --> 00:27:04,289
We went to the Caravaggio
exhibition at the Met.
393
00:27:04,415 --> 00:27:09,086
It's such a treat to go through a museum
with Frederick. You learn so much.
394
00:27:09,211 --> 00:27:12,464
- Do you like Caravaggio?
- Oh, yes. Who doesn't?
395
00:27:13,424 --> 00:27:17,553
Look! E. E. Cummings.
396
00:27:17,678 --> 00:27:19,555
I'd like to get you this.
397
00:27:19,680 --> 00:27:24,476
- Oh, no. I can't let you get me that.
- Yes, I'd like to, very much.
398
00:27:24,601 --> 00:27:27,730
I read a poem of you
and thought of his last week...
399
00:27:27,855 --> 00:27:31,108
A poem of his and thought of you!
400
00:27:32,317 --> 00:27:34,486
- You'll be fine, though.
- This is great.
401
00:27:34,611 --> 00:27:38,031
- I love E. E. Cummings, but...
- Listen. I'd love to get you this.
402
00:27:38,157 --> 00:27:42,077
- Are you sure?
- Maybe we could discuss it sometime.
403
00:27:47,291 --> 00:27:50,878
- Well, thanks a lot.
- Thanks for showing me the book store.
404
00:27:51,003 --> 00:27:54,465
Perhaps you could take me
to an AA meeting sometime.
405
00:27:54,590 --> 00:27:57,009
- I'd love to see what goes on.
- Yeah, you'd love it.
406
00:27:57,134 --> 00:28:00,471
It's really entertaining.
I know you'd have a good time.
407
00:28:00,596 --> 00:28:04,016
And don't forget the poem on page 112.
408
00:28:04,141 --> 00:28:06,643
- It reminded me of you.
- Really?
409
00:28:11,064 --> 00:28:13,317
Page 112.
410
00:28:13,442 --> 00:28:15,277
- Bye.
- Bye.
411
00:28:22,618 --> 00:28:26,413
(Lee) "Your slightest look easily
will unclose me
412
00:28:26,538 --> 00:28:29,124
"though I have closed myself as fingers
413
00:28:29,249 --> 00:28:33,796
"you open always petal by petal myself
as Spring opens
414
00:28:33,921 --> 00:28:38,258
"touching skilfully, mysteriously
her first rose
415
00:28:40,135 --> 00:28:44,306
"I do not know what it is about you
that closes and opens
416
00:28:44,431 --> 00:28:47,267
"only something in me understands
417
00:28:47,392 --> 00:28:51,313
"the voice of your eyes
is deeper than all roses
418
00:28:52,523 --> 00:28:57,861
"Nobody, not even the rain,
has such small hands"
419
00:29:53,750 --> 00:29:59,047
I wasn't too happy with the results
of your ENG or your BSER, either,
420
00:29:59,172 --> 00:30:04,136
which is why I sent you to Tomography,
where you saw that stuff rolling around.
421
00:30:04,261 --> 00:30:06,847
You see this little grey area here?
422
00:30:06,972 --> 00:30:10,809
That grey area's what I had hoped
that we wouldn't run into.
423
00:30:10,934 --> 00:30:14,771
I'd like you to come in Monday morning
for a CAT scan.
424
00:30:15,856 --> 00:30:19,526
- A brain scan?
- Mr Sachs, let's take one step at a time.
425
00:30:19,651 --> 00:30:24,865
We won't make any decisions until
we have all the information in front of us.
426
00:30:27,743 --> 00:30:30,537
OK, take it easy.
427
00:30:30,662 --> 00:30:33,248
He didn't say you had anything.
428
00:30:33,373 --> 00:30:36,960
He just doesn't like the spot
on your X-ray, that's all.
429
00:30:37,085 --> 00:30:41,465
It doesn't mean you have anything.
Don't jump to conclusions.
430
00:30:41,590 --> 00:30:43,342
Nothing's gonna happen to you.
431
00:30:43,467 --> 00:30:46,345
You're in the middle of New York City.
This is your town.
432
00:30:46,470 --> 00:30:50,098
You're surrounded by people
and traffic and restaurants. God...
433
00:30:50,223 --> 00:30:53,477
How can you just one day vanish?
434
00:30:54,811 --> 00:30:58,148
Keep calm. You're gonna be OK.
435
00:30:58,273 --> 00:31:00,192
Don't panic.
436
00:31:00,817 --> 00:31:03,028
I'm dying! I'm dying!
437
00:31:03,153 --> 00:31:05,822
I know it! There's a spot on my lungs!
438
00:31:05,948 --> 00:31:10,118
All right, now take it easy.
It's not on your lungs, it's on your ear.
439
00:31:10,243 --> 00:31:14,331
It's the same thing, isn't it?
Jesus, I can't sleep!
440
00:31:14,456 --> 00:31:18,085
God, there's a tumour in my head
the size of a basketball!
441
00:31:18,210 --> 00:31:21,254
Now I keep thinking I can feel it
every time I blink!
442
00:31:21,380 --> 00:31:24,967
Oh, Jesus!
He wants me to do a brain scan
443
00:31:25,092 --> 00:31:27,678
to confirm what he already suspects.
444
00:31:27,803 --> 00:31:29,888
Look, I'll make a deal with God.
445
00:31:30,013 --> 00:31:33,767
Let it just be my ear, OK?
I'll go deaf, and blind in one eye, maybe.
446
00:31:33,892 --> 00:31:36,770
But I don't want a brain operation.
Once they go into my skull,
447
00:31:36,895 --> 00:31:41,274
I'll wind up like the guy with the wool cap
who delivers for the florist.
448
00:31:41,400 --> 00:31:46,196
Relax, will ya? Your whole life, you run
to doctors, the news is always fine.
449
00:31:46,321 --> 00:31:49,408
No, that's not true.
What about years ago?'
450
00:31:49,533 --> 00:31:52,828
I'm sorry to say, Mr Sachs,
that you cannot have children.
451
00:31:55,247 --> 00:31:56,999
Gee.
452
00:31:57,124 --> 00:31:58,917
Is there no chance?
453
00:31:59,042 --> 00:32:02,129
This doesn't mean that
you can't have a normal sex life,
454
00:32:02,254 --> 00:32:05,340
but Mr Sachs' tests indicate
that he is infertile.
455
00:32:05,465 --> 00:32:08,385
Small sperm volume and infertile.
456
00:32:08,510 --> 00:32:10,887
Is there anything I can do?
Push-ups? Hormones?
457
00:32:11,013 --> 00:32:13,765
- I'm afraid not.
- I gotta get a second opinion.
458
00:32:13,890 --> 00:32:16,643
- This is the second opinion.
- Well, a third opinion.
459
00:32:16,768 --> 00:32:18,812
I realise this is a blow.
460
00:32:18,937 --> 00:32:23,316
My experience is that many
very fine marriages become unstable
461
00:32:23,442 --> 00:32:27,863
and are destroyed by an inability
to deal with this sort of problem.
462
00:32:27,988 --> 00:32:30,407
I hope you won't make too much of it.
463
00:32:30,532 --> 00:32:35,662
One can adopt children, and there are
various artificial methods of fertilisation.
464
00:32:35,787 --> 00:32:39,791
- I'm so humiliated.
- Could you have ruined yourself?
465
00:32:39,916 --> 00:32:43,712
- How could I ruin myself?
- I don't know. Excessive masturbation?
466
00:32:43,837 --> 00:32:46,715
Hey, you gonna start knockin'
my hobbies? Jesus!
467
00:32:46,840 --> 00:32:51,178
- Maybe we can adopt a child.
- What about artificial insemination?
468
00:32:51,303 --> 00:32:54,097
- What are you talkin' about?
- I would get implanted.
469
00:32:54,222 --> 00:32:58,268
- By a stranger?
- They have banks where they're frozen.
470
00:32:58,393 --> 00:33:02,022
- You want a defrosted kid?
- I want to experience childbirth.
471
00:33:02,147 --> 00:33:05,984
- With a stranger?
- Just think about it, that's all I ask.
472
00:33:06,109 --> 00:33:09,905
Oh, that was a wonderful show.
That's the best show you two ever wrote.
473
00:33:10,030 --> 00:33:14,367
The funniest show that Mickey and I ever
did was the one we won the Emmy for.
474
00:33:14,493 --> 00:33:19,748
I think as far as plain laughs go, that was
probably the best thing that we ever did.
475
00:33:19,873 --> 00:33:24,586
Yeah, it was funny, but the show about
the two Frenchmen was funny and warm.
476
00:33:24,711 --> 00:33:28,548
- We got that idea on that trip to Paris.
- Remember that summer in France?
477
00:33:28,673 --> 00:33:30,884
Hannah, you had jet lag
for six straight weeks.
478
00:33:31,009 --> 00:33:34,805
Yeah, but it was... I guess
we had fun when we were there.
479
00:33:34,930 --> 00:33:37,057
Sorry. Coffee?
480
00:33:37,182 --> 00:33:39,810
Listen, you guys... Want some more?
481
00:33:39,935 --> 00:33:43,772
We had something
we really wanted to discuss with you.
482
00:33:43,897 --> 00:33:48,026
Yeah. Jesus, this is very delicate.
483
00:33:48,151 --> 00:33:51,488
And I only bring this up amongst friends.
484
00:33:52,531 --> 00:33:56,660
This should not go
any further than this room.
485
00:33:56,785 --> 00:33:58,787
I'm all ears.
486
00:34:00,205 --> 00:34:03,250
Hannah and I can't have any children.
487
00:34:03,375 --> 00:34:08,880
Now, I don't wanna get into whose
fault it is. It's my fault that we can't.
488
00:34:09,005 --> 00:34:11,174
The details are too embarrassing to...
489
00:34:11,299 --> 00:34:16,763
We've decided, after a lot of discussion,
that we'd try with artificial insemination.
490
00:34:16,888 --> 00:34:19,474
Yeah, I'm not so sure
that I like that idea myself.
491
00:34:19,599 --> 00:34:25,272
I didn't want to go to a sperm bank
and have some anonymous donor.
492
00:34:25,397 --> 00:34:27,315
I just wouldn't want that.
493
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:31,486
We felt, if we were gonna do it, we'd like
somebody who we knew and liked,
494
00:34:31,611 --> 00:34:33,864
and was warm and bright...
495
00:34:33,989 --> 00:34:36,700
(Hannah) You can say no.
Feel free to say no.
496
00:34:36,825 --> 00:34:39,411
We realise it has all kinds of implications.
497
00:34:39,536 --> 00:34:43,165
The point that we're making here
is that we need some sperm.
498
00:34:46,126 --> 00:34:47,460
Gee.
499
00:34:48,420 --> 00:34:54,801
Well, my first reaction, after the initial
shock, is flattered that you'd ask me.
500
00:34:54,926 --> 00:34:58,763
I would be the father. You would just
have to masturbate into a little cup.
501
00:34:58,889 --> 00:35:03,685
- I can handle that.
- Obviously we wouldn't have intercourse.
502
00:35:03,810 --> 00:35:07,772
Gosh, listen. I've gotta tell you the truth.
I'm a little uneasy about this.
503
00:35:07,898 --> 00:35:12,819
- I know it's a lot to ask.
- Well, I feel for you, I do. I...
504
00:35:12,944 --> 00:35:16,656
I'm gonna cry. You want my husband
to have a child with you?
505
00:35:16,781 --> 00:35:21,995
Don't answer now. Just take it home
and think about it for a while.
506
00:35:22,871 --> 00:35:27,500
I gave blood before...
and clothing to the poor.
507
00:35:27,626 --> 00:35:30,754
OK, Norman, listen.
I really wanna talk about this at home.
508
00:35:30,879 --> 00:35:34,549
I think it's a matter
for your analyst, and mine.
509
00:35:34,674 --> 00:35:36,259
And maybe my lawyer.
510
00:35:36,384 --> 00:35:41,264
We understand completely
if you feel you'd rather not.
511
00:35:42,682 --> 00:35:47,687
I didn't mean to spoil the evening.
Let's move on to another topic.
512
00:35:47,812 --> 00:35:51,650
(Mickey) So you had
my ex-partner's baby. Twins.
513
00:35:51,775 --> 00:35:56,446
And maybe that did cause some trouble,
but I think we were drifting apart anyhow.
514
00:35:56,571 --> 00:35:59,658
Now, instead of man and wife,
we're just good friends.
515
00:35:59,783 --> 00:36:03,370
Boy, love is really unpredictable.'
516
00:36:03,495 --> 00:36:05,956
(♪ PUCCINI: "Sola, perduta, abbandonata")
517
00:36:56,298 --> 00:36:59,467
Lee? Frederick?
Say hello to Dusty Frye.
518
00:36:59,592 --> 00:37:01,011
- Hi, Dusty.
- Hi.
519
00:37:01,136 --> 00:37:05,140
Dusty's just bought a huge house in
Southampton and he's decorating it.
520
00:37:05,265 --> 00:37:09,853
Yeah, it's kind of a weird place.
A lot of wall space. How you doin', man?
521
00:37:09,978 --> 00:37:12,856
I told him about your work
and he's very excited.
522
00:37:12,981 --> 00:37:15,859
I got an Andy Warhol,
and I got a Frank Stella too.
523
00:37:15,984 --> 00:37:19,612
It's very beautiful.
Big, weird, you know?
524
00:37:19,738 --> 00:37:24,117
If you stare at that Stella too long,
the colours just seem to float. It's weird.
525
00:37:24,242 --> 00:37:26,578
Are you excited about
becoming a collector?
526
00:37:26,703 --> 00:37:31,249
Yeah. I got a lot more to learn, though.
I really wasn't into art when I was a kid.
527
00:37:31,374 --> 00:37:33,877
Do you appreciate drawings?
528
00:37:34,002 --> 00:37:35,295
Yeah.
529
00:37:35,420 --> 00:37:38,715
Oh, hey, wow. She's beautiful.
530
00:37:40,383 --> 00:37:44,512
But really I need somethin'...
I'm lookin' for somethin' big.
531
00:37:44,637 --> 00:37:47,807
- Frederick, show him the oils.
- (Frederick) They're in the basement.
532
00:37:47,932 --> 00:37:50,935
Frederick's done a new series
that I'm sure you'd love.
533
00:37:51,061 --> 00:37:53,813
- Are they big?
- Yeah, some of them are.
534
00:37:53,938 --> 00:37:55,982
Cos I got a lot of wall space there.
535
00:37:56,107 --> 00:37:59,444
I don't sell my work by the yard.
536
00:37:59,569 --> 00:38:01,237
Oh, Frederick!
537
00:38:06,826 --> 00:38:09,996
- How's everything?
- Oh, you know...
538
00:38:10,121 --> 00:38:12,290
I talked to Hannah this morning
on the phone.
539
00:38:12,415 --> 00:38:15,001
She said you were going
to the country for the weekend.
540
00:38:15,126 --> 00:38:17,379
Yes, she loves to go out in the woods.
541
00:38:17,504 --> 00:38:20,590
But I go nuts. It's a conflict.
542
00:38:22,967 --> 00:38:27,097
- I have to get my teeth cleaned this week.
- Oh, that's nice.
543
00:38:29,224 --> 00:38:31,810
I figured I'd get Frederick
and Dusty together.
544
00:38:31,935 --> 00:38:35,814
- Yeah, that's really nice of you.
- This kid, he's earned a trillion dollars.
545
00:38:35,939 --> 00:38:40,402
- He's got six gold records.
- Oh, speaking of records...
546
00:38:40,527 --> 00:38:42,695
I bought that Mozart trio
you recommended.
547
00:38:42,821 --> 00:38:45,573
The man in the shop showed me
another one I think you'd love.
548
00:38:45,698 --> 00:38:49,119
It's another Bach, second movement.
549
00:38:49,244 --> 00:38:52,664
You have that one? I'd love to hear it.
550
00:38:52,789 --> 00:38:57,419
Oh, and Holly met a wonderful man
who loves opera, an architect.
551
00:38:57,544 --> 00:39:01,339
Well, that's nice.
I'd love to see her wind up settled.
552
00:39:01,464 --> 00:39:03,508
She's a tense one.
553
00:39:03,633 --> 00:39:05,635
(♪ Harpsichord playing)
554
00:39:12,851 --> 00:39:14,811
Isn't that beautiful?
555
00:39:14,936 --> 00:39:16,688
I know this.
556
00:39:16,813 --> 00:39:20,775
Bach, F Minor Concerto.
It's one of my favourites.
557
00:39:24,112 --> 00:39:26,156
Erm...
558
00:39:26,281 --> 00:39:29,451
Did you ever get around
to E. E. Cummings?
559
00:39:29,576 --> 00:39:31,828
Yes, he's just adorable.
560
00:39:33,037 --> 00:39:37,333
They have a very large gay clientele
where I get my teeth cleaned.
561
00:39:37,459 --> 00:39:41,296
All the hygienists now wear gloves
because they're afraid of AIDS.
562
00:39:41,421 --> 00:39:43,506
Oh, right.
563
00:39:46,092 --> 00:39:49,679
Did you ever get around
to the poem on page 112?
564
00:39:50,805 --> 00:39:54,934
Yes, it made me cry,
it was so beautiful, so romantic.
565
00:39:56,811 --> 00:39:59,230
(Elliot) I want so badly to kiss her.
566
00:39:59,355 --> 00:40:02,942
Not here, you idiot!
You've got to get her alone some place.
567
00:40:03,067 --> 00:40:08,281
But I've got to proceed cautiously.
This is a very delicate situation.
568
00:40:08,406 --> 00:40:10,074
OK, er...
569
00:40:10,200 --> 00:40:13,536
Ask her if you can see her for lunch,
or a drink tomorrow.
570
00:40:13,661 --> 00:40:17,457
And be ready to make light
of the offer if she's unresponsive.
571
00:40:17,582 --> 00:40:22,170
This has to be clone very skilfully
and very diplomatically.'
572
00:40:22,295 --> 00:40:24,339
Did you ever read this one?
573
00:40:25,965 --> 00:40:28,843
- Elliot, don't!
- Lee, I'm in love with you!
574
00:40:30,011 --> 00:40:32,305
- (Record jumps)
- What are you doing?
575
00:40:32,430 --> 00:40:35,642
I'm sorry. I have to talk to you.
There's so much I want to tell you.
576
00:40:35,767 --> 00:40:39,354
- I've been in love with you for so long...
- (Frederick shouting)
577
00:40:40,313 --> 00:40:42,732
Forget it!
I'm not interested in selling it.
578
00:40:42,857 --> 00:40:46,069
I only asked if you had something
with a little puce in it!
579
00:40:46,194 --> 00:40:47,612
(Lee) What's the problem?
580
00:40:47,737 --> 00:40:49,739
I don't care about your interior decorator!
581
00:40:49,864 --> 00:40:54,285
I can't commit to anything without
consulting her first. That's why I have her.
582
00:40:54,410 --> 00:40:58,623
This is degrading! You don't buy
paintings to blend in with the sofa!
583
00:40:58,748 --> 00:41:01,834
It's not a sofa. It's an ottoman!
584
00:41:01,960 --> 00:41:05,630
God, forget it.
Let's just get outta here, Elliot.
585
00:41:06,506 --> 00:41:09,384
What a weirdo that guy is. Paranoid...
586
00:41:11,094 --> 00:41:13,638
- What's the matter with you?
- I'll be OK.
587
00:41:13,763 --> 00:41:17,392
- No big deal, we just didn't hit it off.
- No, you go on ahead.
588
00:41:17,517 --> 00:41:20,895
- Are you OK? You're sweating.
- Yeah, I just need some fresh air.
589
00:41:21,020 --> 00:41:25,400
It's probably something I ate.
I'll walk, you go ahead. Go on.
590
00:41:42,417 --> 00:41:44,377
- (Phone rings)
- Hello.
591
00:41:45,211 --> 00:41:46,629
Hello?
592
00:41:47,422 --> 00:41:49,257
Hello!
593
00:41:57,056 --> 00:41:59,392
Oh, there you are!
I was looking for you.
594
00:41:59,517 --> 00:42:02,395
I must apologise.
I'm sorry. I'm so mixed up.
595
00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:04,564
How do you expect me to react?
596
00:42:04,689 --> 00:42:07,275
I know, but I am in love with you.
597
00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:10,903
- Oh, don't say those words!
- I'm sorry. I know, it's terrible.
598
00:42:11,029 --> 00:42:13,823
- You know the situation.
- I know, I realise.
599
00:42:13,948 --> 00:42:17,994
- What do you expect me to say?
- Hannah and I are in the last stages.
600
00:42:18,119 --> 00:42:21,122
She's never said so,
and we're very close. She'd tell me.
601
00:42:21,247 --> 00:42:23,499
It's so sad, she's crazy about me,
602
00:42:23,625 --> 00:42:26,836
but somewhere along the line,
I've fallen out of love with her.
603
00:42:26,961 --> 00:42:30,590
- Not because of me, I hope?
- Oh, no, no... Well, yes! I love you.
604
00:42:30,715 --> 00:42:35,470
- I can't be the cause of anything...
- No, it was inevitable that we part.
605
00:42:35,595 --> 00:42:37,764
- Why?
- For a million reasons.
606
00:42:37,889 --> 00:42:41,893
- But not over me?
- No, we're going in different directions.
607
00:42:42,018 --> 00:42:44,020
- Poor Hannah.
- But how about you?
608
00:42:44,145 --> 00:42:47,899
Do you share any of my feelings, or
is this an unpleasant embarrassment?
609
00:42:48,024 --> 00:42:52,362
- I can't say anything.
- Be candid. I don't want you to feel bad.
610
00:42:52,487 --> 00:42:56,282
Yes, I have certain feelings for you,
but don't make me say anything more.
611
00:42:56,407 --> 00:43:01,245
OK, OK, you've said enough. It's my
responsibility now. I'll work things out.
612
00:43:01,371 --> 00:43:05,249
Don't do anything for me. I live with
Frederick, and Hannah and I are close.
613
00:43:05,375 --> 00:43:10,088
- Yes, but you do care about me?
- Elliot, please, I can't be a party to this.
614
00:43:10,213 --> 00:43:13,132
I'm suddenly wracked with guilt
just talking to you.
615
00:43:13,257 --> 00:43:16,052
Your guilt is because
you feel the same.
616
00:43:16,177 --> 00:43:19,597
Oh, please, I have to go.
I have to get my teeth cleaned.
617
00:43:20,515 --> 00:43:23,810
I have my answer. I have my answer.
618
00:43:24,811 --> 00:43:26,813
I'm walking on air!
619
00:43:44,247 --> 00:43:46,541
- Hi. How's she doing?
- Am I glad to see you!
620
00:43:46,666 --> 00:43:49,919
She's in the kitchen there.
It's the same thing.
621
00:43:50,044 --> 00:43:53,047
She promises, promises.
And it's all lies, always.
622
00:43:53,172 --> 00:43:55,133
Don't make it worse, Dad.
623
00:43:55,258 --> 00:43:57,051
Hi, Mom. How are you doing?
624
00:43:57,176 --> 00:44:00,847
I'll get you some coffee.
That's enough of that. What triggered it?
625
00:44:00,972 --> 00:44:03,099
We were making a commercial
at the mayor's office.
626
00:44:03,224 --> 00:44:05,268
There was this young
good-looking salesman
627
00:44:05,393 --> 00:44:09,897
and your mother was throwing
herself at him in a disgusting way.
628
00:44:10,022 --> 00:44:12,817
Then she found she was too old
to seduce him,
629
00:44:12,942 --> 00:44:15,236
that he was just embarrassed by her.
630
00:44:15,361 --> 00:44:16,696
Liar! Liar!
631
00:44:16,821 --> 00:44:22,160
At lunch, she got drunker and drunker,
and finally she became Joan Collins!
632
00:44:22,285 --> 00:44:26,497
All my life, I've had to put up
with insults from this non-person!
633
00:44:26,622 --> 00:44:30,251
This haircut that passes for a man!
634
00:44:30,376 --> 00:44:32,211
He could never support us.
635
00:44:32,336 --> 00:44:35,006
It's a good thing
we had a talented daughter.
636
00:44:35,131 --> 00:44:37,759
I can only hope that she was mine!
637
00:44:37,884 --> 00:44:41,846
With you as her mother, her father
could be anybody in Actors' Equity!
638
00:44:41,971 --> 00:44:44,557
She's talented,
so it's unlikely she's yours.
639
00:44:44,682 --> 00:44:48,311
Dad, could you stay in the other room
and let me take care of her?
640
00:44:48,436 --> 00:44:53,691
You never know when she's gonna fall
off the wagon and humiliate everybody.
641
00:44:53,816 --> 00:44:56,068
Here, Mom. Drink this.
642
00:44:56,194 --> 00:44:59,614
You know, you're awful.
You probably were flirting.
643
00:44:59,739 --> 00:45:03,075
No! I like to joke around and have fun,
644
00:45:03,201 --> 00:45:05,912
and he gets angry
because I get the attention.
645
00:45:06,037 --> 00:45:11,083
He's gotten sourer as he's gotten older
and I've tried to stay young... at heart.
646
00:45:11,209 --> 00:45:13,169
You promised to stay on the wagon.
647
00:45:13,294 --> 00:45:15,588
The sacrifices I've made
because of that man...
648
00:45:15,713 --> 00:45:20,968
He's ruined me with his ego,
his philandering, his... mediocrity!
649
00:45:21,093 --> 00:45:23,179
OK, stop being so dramatic.
650
00:45:23,304 --> 00:45:26,015
He's the one that's laid
every ingenue in stock!
651
00:45:26,140 --> 00:45:27,850
OK, OK.
652
00:45:27,975 --> 00:45:30,353
- They wanted me for a screen test.
- I know.
653
00:45:30,478 --> 00:45:33,606
But I knew that he'd get up there
and flounder around
654
00:45:33,731 --> 00:45:37,109
with his expensive haircuts
and hairdos and clothes.
655
00:45:38,236 --> 00:45:39,987
He's all show.
656
00:45:40,112 --> 00:45:44,784
Now, how can you act when
there's nothing inside to come out?
657
00:45:46,994 --> 00:45:48,996
(♪ Father plays piano)
658
00:45:55,461 --> 00:46:00,341
(Hannah) She was so beautiful
at one time, and he was so dashing.
659
00:46:00,466 --> 00:46:05,930
Both of them just full of promise
and hopes that never materialised.
660
00:46:06,055 --> 00:46:11,435
Then the fights and the constant
infidelities to prove themselves
661
00:46:11,561 --> 00:46:15,064
and blaming each other. It's so sad.
662
00:46:15,189 --> 00:46:20,069
They loved the idea of having us kids,
but raising us didn't interest them much.
663
00:46:20,194 --> 00:46:25,408
But it's impossible to hold it against
them. They didn't know anything else.'
664
00:46:26,158 --> 00:46:28,828
You know, of all of us in the family,
665
00:46:28,953 --> 00:46:31,706
you were the one
blessed with the true gift.
666
00:46:31,831 --> 00:46:37,295
My true gift is luck, Mom. I just had
a lot of luck, from my first show.
667
00:46:37,420 --> 00:46:40,047
I thought Lee was the one
destined for great things.
668
00:46:40,172 --> 00:46:45,136
Yes, she's lovely, but she doesn't
have your spark. She knows it.
669
00:46:45,261 --> 00:46:48,764
She worships you.
She wouldn't dare get up there on stage.
670
00:46:48,890 --> 00:46:53,311
- Now, Holly's not shy.
- Holly's game for anything.
671
00:46:53,436 --> 00:46:55,479
- Holly takes after me.
- True.
672
00:46:55,605 --> 00:46:58,107
I'd have been a great dope addict.
673
00:46:59,609 --> 00:47:01,652
Remember this, Hannah?
674
00:48:25,444 --> 00:48:28,531
Mr Sachs,
I'm afraid the news is not good.
675
00:48:30,825 --> 00:48:33,619
If I can show you exactly
where the tumour is,
676
00:48:33,744 --> 00:48:38,958
and why we feel that
surgery would be of no use...
677
00:48:39,083 --> 00:48:41,085
(Mickey) 'It's over.
678
00:48:42,169 --> 00:48:44,630
I'm face to face with eternity.
679
00:48:45,464 --> 00:48:47,550
Not later, but now.
680
00:48:48,634 --> 00:48:52,930
I'm so frightened,
I can't move, speak or breathe.'
681
00:48:55,683 --> 00:48:59,395
Well, you're just fine.
There's absolutely nothing here at all.
682
00:48:59,520 --> 00:49:01,731
And your tests are all fine.
683
00:49:02,982 --> 00:49:07,069
I must admit, I was concerned,
given your symptoms.
684
00:49:07,194 --> 00:49:10,156
What caused this hearing loss
we'll never know for sure,
685
00:49:10,281 --> 00:49:15,494
but whatever it was, it's certainly not
anything serious. I'm very relieved.
686
00:49:15,619 --> 00:49:17,580
(♪ Lively jazz)
687
00:49:32,803 --> 00:49:35,931
What do you mean, you're quitting? Why?
688
00:49:36,057 --> 00:49:40,311
The news is good.
You don't have canc... the thing.
689
00:49:40,436 --> 00:49:43,647
Do you realise what a thread
we're all hanging by?
690
00:49:43,773 --> 00:49:46,484
Mickey, you're off the hook.
You should be celebrating.
691
00:49:46,609 --> 00:49:49,403
Can you understand
how meaningless everything is?
692
00:49:49,528 --> 00:49:53,616
I'm talking about our lives, the show,
the whole world. It's meaningless.
693
00:49:53,741 --> 00:49:57,787
- Yeah, but you're not dying.
- No, I'm not dying now, but...
694
00:49:57,912 --> 00:50:01,749
When I ran out of the hospital, I was
so thrilled because I was gonna be OK.
695
00:50:01,874 --> 00:50:05,044
I'm running down the street,
and suddenly I stop. It hit me.
696
00:50:05,169 --> 00:50:08,756
So I'm not gonna go today,
I'm not gonna go tomorrow,
697
00:50:08,881 --> 00:50:11,467
but eventually I'm gonna be
in that position.
698
00:50:11,592 --> 00:50:15,805
- You're just realising this now?
- No, I've known it all the time.
699
00:50:15,930 --> 00:50:18,307
But I stuck it in the back of my mind,
700
00:50:18,432 --> 00:50:22,228
because it's a very horrible thing
to think about.
701
00:50:22,353 --> 00:50:24,772
- Can I tell you something? A secret?
- Yeah. Yes, please.
702
00:50:24,897 --> 00:50:28,609
A week ago, I bought a rifle.
I went into a store and bought one.
703
00:50:28,734 --> 00:50:30,778
If I had a tumour,
I was gonna kill myself.
704
00:50:30,903 --> 00:50:34,615
The only thing that might've stopped me
is my parents would be devastated.
705
00:50:34,740 --> 00:50:36,784
I would have to shoot them first.
706
00:50:36,909 --> 00:50:40,246
And then my aunt and uncle...
It would've been a bloodbath.
707
00:50:40,371 --> 00:50:44,750
Well, you know, eventually
it is going to happen to all of us.
708
00:50:44,875 --> 00:50:50,005
But doesn't that ruin everything for you?
It takes the pleasure out of everything.
709
00:50:50,131 --> 00:50:53,968
You're gonna die, I'm gonna die,
the audience, the network, the sponsor...
710
00:50:54,093 --> 00:50:56,554
- I know, and your hamster.
- Yes!
711
00:50:56,679 --> 00:51:00,015
Listen, kid.
I think you snapped your cap.
712
00:51:00,141 --> 00:51:04,436
Maybe you need a few weeks in Bermuda
or something, or go to a whorehouse.
713
00:51:04,562 --> 00:51:06,689
I can't stay on this show.
I need answers.
714
00:51:06,814 --> 00:51:10,776
Otherwise, I'm telling you,
I'm gonna do something drastic.
715
00:51:29,837 --> 00:51:33,340
- I thought you weren't coming.
- I almost didn't.
716
00:51:34,383 --> 00:51:37,469
- I didn't sleep all night.
- No, I'm sure.
717
00:51:38,804 --> 00:51:42,057
What are we doing,
meeting in a hotel room? It's terrible.
718
00:51:42,183 --> 00:51:45,060
I couldn't think where to invite you
without taking risks.
719
00:51:45,186 --> 00:51:49,023
I promised myself I wouldn't let this
happen till you were living alone.
720
00:51:49,148 --> 00:51:51,066
I was so torn when you called.
721
00:51:51,192 --> 00:51:55,446
I've wanted to call you every day
since I first told you how I felt.
722
00:51:55,571 --> 00:51:57,907
I resisted so many times.
723
00:52:00,743 --> 00:52:02,786
Don't think badly of me.
724
00:52:05,497 --> 00:52:07,583
This is not an easy situation.
725
00:52:07,708 --> 00:52:09,752
I know it isn't.
726
00:52:26,560 --> 00:52:28,604
(Lee) That was just perfect.
727
00:52:29,563 --> 00:52:32,149
You've ruined me for anyone else.
728
00:52:32,274 --> 00:52:36,320
(Elliot) I don't want anyone else
ever to have you.
729
00:52:36,445 --> 00:52:39,073
I was so worried
I wouldn't compare with Hannah.
730
00:52:39,198 --> 00:52:43,244
Oh, my God. You really do have
those thoughts, don't you?
731
00:52:43,369 --> 00:52:45,412
All the time.
732
00:52:45,537 --> 00:52:47,915
I know she must be
a really passionate person.
733
00:52:48,040 --> 00:52:53,420
Yes, she's very warm and giving,
but it's me that wants to be giving to you.
734
00:52:53,545 --> 00:52:58,592
I wanna do things for you.
Hannah doesn't need me as much.
735
00:52:58,717 --> 00:53:03,138
Oh, I'm being presumptuous.
Not that you need me...
736
00:53:03,264 --> 00:53:05,641
I want you to take care of me.
737
00:53:07,059 --> 00:53:09,937
And I love when you do things to me.
738
00:53:39,008 --> 00:53:40,634
(Frederick) You're late.
739
00:53:40,759 --> 00:53:44,430
Lucy and I kept talking
and I didn't realise how late it had got.
740
00:53:45,306 --> 00:53:49,435
You missed a very dull TV show
about Auschwitz.
741
00:53:49,560 --> 00:53:53,772
More gruesome film clips,
and more puzzled intellectuals
742
00:53:53,897 --> 00:53:58,319
declaring their mystification
over the systematic murder of millions.
743
00:53:58,444 --> 00:54:02,573
The reason why they can never answer
the question "How could it happen?"
744
00:54:02,698 --> 00:54:04,575
Is that it's the wrong question.
745
00:54:04,700 --> 00:54:08,620
Given what people are, the question is
"Why doesn't it happen more often?"
746
00:54:08,746 --> 00:54:14,168
- Of course, it does, in subtler forms.
- I have a headache from this weather.
747
00:54:17,421 --> 00:54:20,632
It's been ages since I sat
in front of the TV,
748
00:54:20,758 --> 00:54:23,594
just changing channels
to find something.
749
00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:26,013
You see the whole culture.
750
00:54:26,138 --> 00:54:29,099
Nazis, deodorant salesmen,
751
00:54:29,224 --> 00:54:32,644
wrestlers, beauty contests,
the talk show...
752
00:54:33,479 --> 00:54:37,399
Can you imagine the level
of a mind that watches wrestling?
753
00:54:37,524 --> 00:54:40,652
But the worst are the fundamentalist
preachers.
754
00:54:40,778 --> 00:54:44,198
Third-rate con men telling
the poor suckers that watch them
755
00:54:44,323 --> 00:54:46,283
that they speak for Jesus.
756
00:54:46,408 --> 00:54:49,912
And to please send in money.
Money, money, money.
757
00:54:50,037 --> 00:54:54,166
If Jesus came back and saw
what's going on in his name,
758
00:54:54,291 --> 00:54:56,126
he'd never stop throwing up.
759
00:54:56,251 --> 00:54:58,670
Oh, God, would you please lighten up?
760
00:54:58,796 --> 00:55:03,342
I'm really not in the mood to hear
a review of contemporary society again.
761
00:55:04,510 --> 00:55:08,180
- You've been very nervous lately.
- I can't take this anymore.
762
00:55:08,305 --> 00:55:11,392
I'm trying to complete an education
I started five years ago.
763
00:55:11,517 --> 00:55:14,061
I'm not your pupil. I was, but I'm not.
764
00:55:14,186 --> 00:55:17,648
When you leave the nest, I want you
to be ready to face the real world.
765
00:55:17,773 --> 00:55:19,983
We're going to have to make
some changes.
766
00:55:20,109 --> 00:55:23,237
- Like what?
- You know what. I'm suffocating.
767
00:55:23,362 --> 00:55:28,075
- Are we having this conversation again?
- Yes, we're having it again.
768
00:55:28,200 --> 00:55:31,370
- I have to leave. I have to move out.
- Why?
769
00:55:31,495 --> 00:55:34,832
- Because I have to.
- What are you going to use for money?
770
00:55:34,957 --> 00:55:38,419
I don't know. I thought maybe
I'd move in with my parents for a while.
771
00:55:38,544 --> 00:55:43,382
I always told you you would leave me.
Does it have to be now?
772
00:55:43,507 --> 00:55:46,844
Maybe it'll only be temporary,
but I have to try.
773
00:55:46,969 --> 00:55:50,055
Oh, Lee. You are my whole world.
774
00:55:53,809 --> 00:55:57,146
Good God. Have you been kissed tonight?
775
00:55:57,271 --> 00:55:59,648
- No.
- Oh, yes, you have.
776
00:55:59,773 --> 00:56:02,276
- You've been with someone!
- Stop accusing me!
777
00:56:02,401 --> 00:56:04,820
I'm too smart, Lee. You can't fool me!
778
00:56:04,945 --> 00:56:07,072
- You're turning all red.
- Leave me alone!
779
00:56:07,197 --> 00:56:09,658
Christ, what's wrong with you?
780
00:56:12,327 --> 00:56:15,205
- I'm sorry.
- Couldn't you say something?
781
00:56:15,330 --> 00:56:18,959
- You have to slither behind my back...
- I'm saying it now!
782
00:56:19,084 --> 00:56:21,128
So you met somebody else?
783
00:56:21,795 --> 00:56:23,130
Yeah.
784
00:56:23,255 --> 00:56:27,259
But you knew it was going to happen
sooner or later. I can't live like this!
785
00:56:27,384 --> 00:56:30,637
- Who is it?
- What's the difference? Somebody I met.
786
00:56:30,762 --> 00:56:35,058
- But who? Where did you meet him?
- It doesn't matter. I have to move out.
787
00:56:35,184 --> 00:56:37,853
You are my only connection
to the world.
788
00:56:37,978 --> 00:56:42,024
Oh, God, that's too much
responsibility for me. It's not fair!
789
00:56:42,149 --> 00:56:45,068
I want a less complicated life.
I want a husband.
790
00:56:45,194 --> 00:56:49,448
- Maybe even a child, before it's too late.
- Jesus! Jesus!
791

I mean...
793

It's not sexual any more.
794
00:57:03,378 --> 00:57:07,216
It's certainly not intellectual.
You're so superior to me in every way...
795

years ago, when you wanted to.

- It never would've worked.

What passion today with Lee!
She's a volcano.
800
00:57:42,084 --> 00:57:46,630
It was a totally fulfilling experience,
just as I'd dreamed it would be.
801
00:57:46,755 --> 00:57:51,343
That's what it was. It was like
living out a dream. A great dream.
802
00:57:52,427 --> 00:57:56,014
Now I feel very good and cosy
being here next to Hannah.
803
00:57:56,139 --> 00:57:58,892
There's something very lovely
and real about Hannah.
804
00:57:59,017 --> 00:58:03,605
She gives me a very deep feeling
of being part of something.
805
00:58:03,730 --> 00:58:07,776
She's a wonderful woman...
and I betrayed her.
806
00:58:07,901 --> 00:58:10,571
She came into my empty life
and changed it,
807
00:58:10,696 --> 00:58:14,408
and I paid her back by banging
her sister in a hotel room.
808
00:58:14,533 --> 00:58:18,412
God, I'm despicable!
What a cruel and shallow thing to do.
809
00:58:18,537 --> 00:58:21,164
I have to call her now and tell her
what we did was crazy.
810
00:58:21,290 --> 00:58:25,502
It can't happen again. I'm not that kind
of man, and I value Hannah too much.
811
00:58:25,627 --> 00:58:29,214
I love my wife.
Now I betrayed her. Oh, God!'
812
00:58:30,007 --> 00:58:33,635
- Where are you going?
- I've, uh, got to get a phone number.
813
00:58:33,760 --> 00:58:36,179
- I forgot to phone Mel Kaufman.
- It's so late.
814
00:58:36,305 --> 00:58:38,307
Yeah, I can't believe I forgot.
815
00:58:39,474 --> 00:58:42,185
If he answers, I'll hang up.
816
00:58:42,311 --> 00:58:46,982
I'll tell her we can't communicate until
I terminate my marriage. It's immoral.
817
00:58:47,107 --> 00:58:51,278
Then time will pass, I won't call,
and she'll get the idea.
818
00:58:51,403 --> 00:58:54,072
Gotta stop this before I get in too deep.
819
00:58:54,197 --> 00:58:58,285
I'd rather hurt Lee a little
than destroy Hannah.
820
00:58:58,410 --> 00:59:03,290
It's 1:30. She can't have a conversation
with me with him around.
821
00:59:03,415 --> 00:59:05,542
I'm getting hysterical.
822
00:59:05,667 --> 00:59:08,003
I'll call her first thing in the morning.

00:59:08,128 --> 00:59:09,796
I'll call her at six.

I'll call her and nip it in the bud.

I would've hung up if you hadn't
answered and I won't do this again,

but I just had to tell you...
I feel very close to you tonight.

What the hell's he got to teach me?
837
01:00:06,978 --> 01:00:11,274
And Nietzsche, with his theory
of eternal recurrence.
838
01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:14,695
He said that the life we live,
we're gonna live over and over again
839
01:00:14,820 --> 01:00:17,531
the exact same way for eternity.
840
01:00:17,656 --> 01:00:21,410
Great. That means I'll have to sit
through the "Ice Capades" again.

Nothing happened.

with their stationary bike
and their exercise.

01:00:47,227 --> 01:00:52,649
Oh, look at this one. Poor thing.
She has to tote all that fat around.
850
01:00:52,774 --> 01:00:55,819
She should pull it on a dolly.

Maybe the poets are right.
Maybe love is the only answer.

Jeez, I was in love with Hannah,
but it didn't work out too well.

01:07:11,528 --> 01:07:15,240
Suppose I said, "Yes, I am disenchanted,
I am in love with someone else"?
947
01:07:15,365 --> 01:07:18,326
- Are you?
- No!
948
01:07:18,451 --> 01:07:22,872
But you keep asking awful questions.
It's like you want me to say yes!
949
01:07:22,997 --> 01:07:27,627
What are you talking about?
Of course not. I'd be destroyed.
950
01:07:27,752 --> 01:07:30,630
(Elliot) For Christ's sake,
stop torturing her.
951
01:07:30,755 --> 01:07:33,550
Tell her you want out
and get it over with.
952
01:07:33,675 --> 01:07:37,470
You're in love with her sister.
You didn't do it on purpose.
953
01:07:37,595 --> 01:07:40,932
Be honest. It's always the best way.'
954
01:07:41,057 --> 01:07:43,393
Can I help you?
955
01:07:43,518 --> 01:07:46,688
If you're suffering over something,
will you share it with me?
956
01:07:46,813 --> 01:07:48,231
Hannah.
957
01:07:49,691 --> 01:07:51,901
You know how much I love you.
958
01:07:53,945 --> 01:07:57,657
I ought to have my head examined.
I don't deserve you.
959
01:08:04,831 --> 01:08:08,168
(Holly) I want to look good,
but I don't want to feel overdressed.
960
01:08:08,293 --> 01:08:10,753
- No, not at all.
- Well, how about this?
961
01:08:10,879 --> 01:08:14,549
I really like that.
I think that's a pretty colour on you.
962
01:08:14,674 --> 01:08:17,969
Ever think you'd be helping me
buy something to wear to the opera?
963
01:08:18,094 --> 01:08:20,346
I think it's great.
I can't wait to meet him.
964
01:08:20,471 --> 01:08:24,851
He's married and his wife's in and out
of institutions. She's schizophrenic.
965
01:08:24,976 --> 01:08:27,937
Sometimes she's terrific,
and then she just breaks down.
966
01:08:28,062 --> 01:08:33,151
He has a sweet daughter. When she goes
to college, he's gonna split permanently.
967
01:08:33,276 --> 01:08:36,779
He's paid his clues, but she helped
put him through architectural school.
968
01:08:36,905 --> 01:08:39,115
You found all this out on one date?
969
01:08:39,240 --> 01:08:42,702
I figured he's dying to open up.
It's so sad.
970
01:08:42,827 --> 01:08:45,872
Now, what should I wear to my audition?
971
01:08:45,997 --> 01:08:50,084
I've got a singing audition for a Broadway
musical. Of course, I'll never get it.
972
01:08:50,210 --> 01:08:52,045
- Singing?
- Can you believe it?
973
01:08:52,170 --> 01:08:55,340
- Really?
- Well, I mean, why not, you know?
974
01:08:55,465 --> 01:09:01,221
- What have I got to lose?
- I know, I just... I didn't know you sang.
975
01:09:02,096 --> 01:09:04,599
You think everybody in musicals
sings so well?
976
01:09:04,724 --> 01:09:06,559
No, no.
977
01:09:06,684 --> 01:09:08,603
Just that... they sing.
978
01:09:08,728 --> 01:09:10,772
Well, you know...
979
01:09:12,148 --> 01:09:16,402
- I sing a little. I mean...
- Oh, I know. No, I know.
980
01:09:17,612 --> 01:09:20,406
Don't say that, cos confidence
is not my strong point.
981
01:09:20,531 --> 01:09:23,117
No, I'm sorry. I didn't mean that.
982
01:09:23,243 --> 01:09:25,286
I think I can fake my way
through a song.
983
01:09:25,411 --> 01:09:27,455
- Uh-huh?
- Easily.
984
01:09:29,666 --> 01:09:34,379
- Why? You don't think it's realistic?
- No, I didn't... That's... No.
985
01:09:34,504 --> 01:09:39,175
I just hate to see you put yourself
in a position where you get hurt.
986
01:09:39,300 --> 01:09:41,678
You know how you take
every single rejection
987
01:09:41,803 --> 01:09:45,223
as a confirmation that
you have no talent or something.
988
01:09:45,348 --> 01:09:48,309
- Yeah, well, maybe I'll get it.
- I hope.
989
01:09:48,434 --> 01:09:51,521
Boy, you really know
how to cut me down.
990
01:09:51,646 --> 01:09:54,607
What? No, don't be so sensitive.
Can't I say anything?
991
01:09:54,732 --> 01:09:58,361
Well, I sing! For Christ's sake,
Hannah, you heard me sing!
992
01:09:58,486 --> 01:10:01,155
OK! What happened?
993
01:10:01,281 --> 01:10:06,619
We were having a really nice time, and
suddenly everything went to bad feeling.
994
01:10:06,744 --> 01:10:09,497
Nobody but you can do that to me.
I don't know why.
995
01:10:09,622 --> 01:10:12,417
Look, everything's going your way.
996
01:10:13,501 --> 01:10:16,170
You're right. I'm happy!
997
01:10:18,089 --> 01:10:22,302
Why must I let my insecurities
spoil everything?

1020
01:11:45,176 --> 01:11:48,596
(April) I'm glad we have a catering job
this week. I'm real low on money.
1021
01:11:48,721 --> 01:11:52,600
Yeah, we have Mr Morris Levine's
80th birthday on Riverside Drive,
1022
01:11:52,725 --> 01:11:56,104
or Riverside Memorial Chapel,
depending on his health.
1023
01:11:56,229 --> 01:11:58,606
Oh, listen. David called me up.
1024
01:11:58,731 --> 01:11:59,857
What?
1025
01:11:59,982 --> 01:12:04,112
David called me last night.
He wants to take me to the opera.
1026
01:12:04,237 --> 01:12:07,323
- I didn't know what to say.
- You're joking.
1027
01:12:07,448 --> 01:12:09,867
No, he called late last night.
1028
01:12:11,202 --> 01:12:13,913
I, uh... I'm very surprised.
1029
01:12:14,038 --> 01:12:16,791
He wanted to take me
to see "Rigoletto".
1030
01:12:16,916 --> 01:12:19,919
- And you're going?
- Well, I didn't know what to say.
1031
01:12:20,044 --> 01:12:22,130
First I said no,
but then he pressed it.
1032
01:12:22,255 --> 01:12:26,634
He said he'd taken you once
and he really wanted to invite me.
1033
01:12:28,177 --> 01:12:30,680
- But I'm seeing him.
- I know, I said that.
1034
01:12:30,805 --> 01:12:35,059
But he said it was something
he really felt like doing.
1035
01:12:35,184 --> 01:12:37,228
Gee, erm...
1036
01:12:37,353 --> 01:12:39,981
I don't know what to say.
1037
01:12:40,857 --> 01:12:45,445
It's just an evening at the opera.
Did I do wrong in accepting?
1038
01:12:46,404 --> 01:12:47,822
Huh?
1039
01:12:53,494 --> 01:12:56,831
Why do you think that you would like
to convert to Catholicism?
1040
01:12:56,956 --> 01:13:01,419
Well, because I've gotta have something
to believe in, or life is meaningless.
1041
01:13:01,544 --> 01:13:07,091
I understand, but why did you make
the decision to choose the Catholic faith?
1042
01:13:07,216 --> 01:13:10,136
First of all,
because it's a very beautiful religion
1043
01:13:10,261 --> 01:13:13,139
and it's a strong religion,
it's very well structured.
1044
01:13:13,264 --> 01:13:17,768
I mean the against-school-prayer,
pro-abortion, anti-nuclear wing.
1045
01:13:17,894 --> 01:13:19,979
So at the moment
you don't believe in God?
1046
01:13:20,104 --> 01:13:25,318
No, and I want to. I'm willing to do
anything. I'll dye Easter eggs, if it works.
1047
01:13:25,443 --> 01:13:28,029
I need some evidence.
I gotta have some proof.
1048
01:13:28,154 --> 01:13:31,782
If I can't believe in God,
then I don't think life is worth living.
1049
01:13:31,908 --> 01:13:36,162
- It means making a very big leap.
- Yes, well, can you help me?
1050
01:13:36,287 --> 01:13:38,956
Why? Oh, my God!
1051
01:13:39,081 --> 01:13:42,001
I don't understand.
I thought you'd be happy.
1052
01:13:42,126 --> 01:13:45,129
- How can we be happy?
- Cos I never thought of God in my life.
1053
01:13:45,254 --> 01:13:48,966
- Now I'm giving it serious thought.
- Catholicism? Why not your own people?
1054
01:13:49,091 --> 01:13:54,263
Because I got off to a wrong foot with
my own thing. I need a dramatic change.
1055
01:13:54,388 --> 01:13:58,392
- You're gonna believe in Jesus Christ?
- I know it sounds funny, but I'll try.
1056
01:13:58,518 --> 01:14:01,854
- But why? We raised you as a Jew.
- Just cos I was born that way...
1057
01:14:01,979 --> 01:14:05,233
- I'm old enough to make decisions.
- But why Jesus Christ?
1058
01:14:05,358 --> 01:14:09,362
- Why shouldn't you become a Buddhist?
- That's totally alien to me.
1059
01:14:09,487 --> 01:14:11,822
You're getting on in years.
Aren't you afraid of dying?
1060
01:14:11,948 --> 01:14:14,575
- Why should I be afraid?
- Cos you won't exist.
1061
01:14:14,700 --> 01:14:16,619
- So?
- That thought doesn't terrify you?
1062
01:14:16,744 --> 01:14:19,872
Who thinks about such nonsense?
When I'm dead, I'll be dead.
1063
01:14:19,997 --> 01:14:23,167
- But aren't you frightened?
- Of what? I'll be unconscious.
1064
01:14:23,292 --> 01:14:25,378
I know, but never to exist again?
1065
01:14:25,503 --> 01:14:28,214
- How do you know?
- It doesn't look promising.
1066
01:14:28,339 --> 01:14:32,385
Who knows what I'll be?
I'll either be unconscious or I won't.
1067
01:14:32,510 --> 01:14:36,013
If not, I'll deal with it then.
I'm not gonna worry now.
1068
01:14:36,138 --> 01:14:37,640
Mom, come out!
1069
01:14:37,765 --> 01:14:42,061
(Mother) Of course there's a God,
you idiot! You don't believe in God?
1070
01:14:42,186 --> 01:14:44,981
If there's a God, why is there
so much evil in the world?
1071
01:14:45,106 --> 01:14:47,900
On a simplistic level,
why were there Nazis?
1072
01:14:48,025 --> 01:14:50,987
- Tell him, Max.
- How the hell do I know?
1073
01:14:51,112 --> 01:14:53,781
I don't know how the can opener works!
1074
01:14:53,906 --> 01:14:56,951
(♪ Choir singing Latin hymn)
1075
01:16:16,364 --> 01:16:19,200
- Hi.
- Hi. Where's Holly?
1076
01:16:19,325 --> 01:16:22,662
She's auditioning for a TV commercial.
She said she'd be late.
1077
01:16:22,787 --> 01:16:26,916
- How's she doing?
- When she's depressed, she's manic.
1078
01:16:27,041 --> 01:16:29,502
I think it was a good idea
to invite her to lunch.
1079
01:16:29,627 --> 01:16:34,840
I hope you say it was your idea. Every
time I try to help, she gets so defensive.
1080
01:16:34,965 --> 01:16:37,927
Oh, Hannah, she's just embarrassed
in front of you, that's all.
1081
01:16:38,052 --> 01:16:39,970
- So how are you?
- Me? I'm OK.
1082
01:16:40,096 --> 01:16:41,764
- Do you miss Frederick?
- No.
1083
01:16:41,889 --> 01:16:44,934
Elliot and I can't think of someone nice
for you to go out with...
1084
01:16:45,059 --> 01:16:48,896
How are you? Are you doing OK?
How's Frederick? I mean, Elliot?
1085
01:16:49,021 --> 01:16:54,360
I guess he's fine. I don't know. He's been
kinda moody lately, the last few months.
1086
01:16:54,485 --> 01:16:57,697
I don't know what's wrong.
He's distant and difficult.
1087
01:16:57,822 --> 01:17:00,616
When I try to talk to him,
he says everything's fine.
1088
01:17:00,741 --> 01:17:04,578
I just leap to the worst conclusion,
that he's seeing someone else or...
1089
01:17:04,704 --> 01:17:07,206
Oh, no.
Everyone thinks things like that.
1090
01:17:07,331 --> 01:17:12,211
Well, I just came from an audition
which I did not get. So what's new?
1091
01:17:12,336 --> 01:17:16,006
- They said I was too offbeat-looking.
- What the hell do they know?
1092
01:17:16,132 --> 01:17:18,467
- And guess who's there, auditioning.
- April?
1093
01:17:18,592 --> 01:17:20,970
- Oh, gosh.
- You got it. I was very polite.
1094
01:17:21,095 --> 01:17:24,181
I maintained my poise. I said hello.
1095
01:17:24,306 --> 01:17:27,852
I never trusted April.
She has eyes in the back of her head.
1096
01:17:27,977 --> 01:17:32,773
She and the architect are now a very
definite item, which I still cannot believe,
1097
01:17:32,898 --> 01:17:36,110
although it's put an end
to the Stanislavski Catering Company.
1098
01:17:36,235 --> 01:17:38,904
I have to speak to you,
and you're gonna get impatient,
1099
01:17:39,029 --> 01:17:41,240
but I have to borrow some more money.
1100
01:17:41,365 --> 01:17:45,161
- Well, that's fine...
- What I've decided to do is some writing.
1101
01:17:45,286 --> 01:17:49,331
I've had it with acting. These
meaningless auditions are cattle-calls.
1102
01:17:49,457 --> 01:17:52,918
I can't handle another rejection.
You know, let's face it here.
1103
01:17:53,043 --> 01:17:56,255
I've gotta latch onto something
in my life.
1104
01:17:56,380 --> 01:18:01,969
Something with a future.
I'm not 16 anymore. It's just... crazy.
1105
01:18:02,094 --> 01:18:06,682
But I've got an idea for a story,
more than one,
1106
01:18:06,807 --> 01:18:10,561
and I just need a few months,
or a year, even.
1107
01:18:10,686 --> 01:18:14,273
I've picked up a lot about
dramatic structure from acting class.
1108
01:18:14,398 --> 01:18:19,779
That's good. It just seems to me
that... six months or a year,
1109
01:18:19,904 --> 01:18:22,364
if you spent it more productively...
1110
01:18:22,490 --> 01:18:25,701
- Like what?
- Well, I don't know. Erm...
1111
01:18:25,826 --> 01:18:29,955
Didn't Mom mention there was something
at the Museum of Broadcasting?
1112
01:18:30,080 --> 01:18:34,710
- That's clerical.
- No, it was in the publicity department.
1113
01:18:34,835 --> 01:18:38,214
- That can lead to other things.
- I knew you'd be discouraging!
1114
01:18:38,339 --> 01:18:40,633
I'm not. I'm trying to be helpful.
1115
01:18:40,758 --> 01:18:45,221
You don't just say one day "I'm
finished as an actress. Now I'm a writer."
1116
01:18:45,346 --> 01:18:48,474
- You mean, not at my age.
- Please, we came to have lunch.
1117
01:18:48,599 --> 01:18:52,144
Yeah, OK, right. Forget it.
What's to eat?
1118
01:18:52,269 --> 01:18:55,689
I just want a salad.
You really think I'm a loser, don't you?
1119
01:18:55,815 --> 01:18:58,275
- You're being ridiculous.
- You are. Stop it.
1120
01:18:58,400 --> 01:19:00,694
- You treat me like a loser.
- How?
1121
01:19:00,820 --> 01:19:03,989
You never have faith in my plans,
you undercut my enthusiasm...
1122
01:19:04,114 --> 01:19:06,659
Not so, no.
I think I've been very supportive.
1123
01:19:06,784 --> 01:19:09,662
I try to give you
honest, constructive advice.
1124
01:19:09,787 --> 01:19:11,997
I'm always happy to help you financially.
1125
01:19:12,122 --> 01:19:15,668
I've gone out of my way to introduce you
to interesting single men...
1126
01:19:15,793 --> 01:19:18,462
- They're all losers.
- You're too demanding.
1127
01:19:18,587 --> 01:19:21,882
I could tell what you thought of me
by the men you fixed me up with.
1128
01:19:22,007 --> 01:19:24,510
- That's not true!
- Hannah, I know I'm mediocre.
1129
01:19:24,635 --> 01:19:28,013
Stop attacking Hannah?
She's going through a rough time.
1130
01:19:28,138 --> 01:19:31,725
- Why are you so upset?
- You've picked on her since she came in.
1131
01:19:31,851 --> 01:19:34,061
Leave her alone. I'm just suffocating.
1132
01:19:34,186 --> 01:19:36,897
What's the matter, Lee?
Why are you so sensitive?
1133
01:19:37,022 --> 01:19:42,194
Listen. You wanna write, write.
Let's just not talk about it anymore.
1134
01:19:42,319 --> 01:19:45,906
Take a year, take six months,
whatever you want.
1135
01:19:46,031 --> 01:19:49,952
Who knows? Maybe you'll be sitting
with a good play.
1136
01:19:50,077 --> 01:19:53,581
What's the matter with you?
You look pale. Are you OK?
1137
01:19:53,706 --> 01:19:56,083
Yeah, you know, I'm just...
1138
01:19:56,208 --> 01:20:01,046
I've got dizzy all of a sudden and
I have a headache. I think we need to eat.
1139
01:20:16,896 --> 01:20:22,776
(Elliot) I can't seem to take action.
I'm like Hamlet, unable to kill his uncle.
1140
01:20:22,902 --> 01:20:26,530
I want Lee, but I can't harm Hannah.
1141
01:20:26,655 --> 01:20:29,992
And in no other area
am I a procrastinator.
1142
01:20:32,244 --> 01:20:35,956
Meanwhile, Lee has no direction.
She's taking courses at Columbia.
1143
01:20:36,081 --> 01:20:38,042
But just randomly.
1144
01:20:38,167 --> 01:20:41,587
I try not to call her,
but then she calls me,
1145
01:20:41,712 --> 01:20:47,676
and then I call, and we try to resist
meeting, but once in a while we meet.
1146
01:20:47,801 --> 01:20:51,430
Sometimes we argue
because I can't break up my marriage.
1147
01:20:51,555 --> 01:20:56,518
Sometimes we wind up making love,
and we both feel terrible.'
1148
01:20:56,644 --> 01:20:58,854
But it's my fault.
1149
01:21:00,189 --> 01:21:04,860
For all my education, accomplishments
and so-called wisdom,
1150
01:21:04,985 --> 01:21:08,030
I can't fathom my own heart.
1151
01:21:08,155 --> 01:21:12,201
♪ Krishna, Krishna, Hare, Hare... ♪
1152
01:21:12,326 --> 01:21:14,995
What makes you interested
in becoming a Hare Krishna?
1153
01:21:15,120 --> 01:21:20,793
I'm not saying I want to join, but I know
you guys believe in reincarnation.
1154
01:21:20,918 --> 01:21:23,879
- What's your religion?
- I was born Jewish.
1155
01:21:24,004 --> 01:21:27,549
Last winter, I tried to become a Catholic,
and it didn't work for me.
1156
01:21:27,675 --> 01:21:29,551
I studied and I gave it everything,
1157
01:21:29,677 --> 01:21:33,389
but Catholicism for me was:
Die now, pay later.
1158
01:21:33,514 --> 01:21:37,101
- I couldn't get with it, and I wanted to.
- Are you afraid of dying?
1159
01:21:37,226 --> 01:21:39,645
Well, yeah, naturally. Aren't you?
1160
01:21:39,770 --> 01:21:43,399
Does reincarnation mean my soul
would pass to another human being,
1161
01:21:43,524 --> 01:21:46,443
or would I come back as a moose
or an aardvark or something?
1162
01:21:46,568 --> 01:21:50,948
Take our literature,
read it over and think about it.
1163
01:21:51,073 --> 01:21:55,202
- OK. Thank you very much.
- You're welcome. Hare Krishna.
1164
01:21:58,122 --> 01:22:01,000
(Mickey) Who are you kidding?
You're gonna be a Krishna?
1165
01:22:01,125 --> 01:22:05,004
You're gonna shave your head and put
on robes and dance around at airports?
1166
01:22:05,129 --> 01:22:07,756
You'll look like Jerry Lewis.
1167
01:22:07,881 --> 01:22:10,009
God, I'm so depressed.'
1168
01:22:20,227 --> 01:22:23,105
(Lee) The nights are
really getting cooler.
1169
01:22:23,230 --> 01:22:27,109
Summer went so quickly.
Soon it'll be fall.
1170
01:22:29,028 --> 01:22:31,780
My literature professor really likes me.
1171
01:22:31,905 --> 01:22:34,992
It was fun being out with him last night.
1172
01:22:35,117 --> 01:22:39,329
Funny, I feel like I'm betraying Elliot,
but that's ridiculous.
1173
01:22:39,455 --> 01:22:42,875
Why shouldn't I see Doug?
Elliot's not free.
1174
01:22:43,959 --> 01:22:46,003
Just go one step at a time.
1175
01:22:47,087 --> 01:22:50,049
Let's see what
the next few months bring.'
1176
01:22:50,841 --> 01:22:52,968
Hannah? Hi!
1177
01:22:53,093 --> 01:22:57,931
Listen, you'll be happy to know that your
money has not gone completely to waste.
1178
01:22:58,057 --> 01:23:02,061
No, I have an actual first rough draft
of something I wrote.
1179
01:23:02,186 --> 01:23:03,812
Yeah, yeah.
1180
01:23:03,937 --> 01:23:07,149
I showed it to Lee and
she gave me some good pointers.
1181
01:23:07,274 --> 01:23:11,320
Listen, I'm pretty near where you live.
Could I just drop it off?
1182
01:23:11,445 --> 01:23:16,075
When you have some time, read it,
and we'll talk at Thanksgiving.
1183
01:23:16,200 --> 01:23:19,620
OK? All right. Oh, wait, listen.
1184
01:23:20,496 --> 01:23:25,918
I think Lee met an interesting guy
at Columbia. He sounds really nice.
1185
01:23:27,002 --> 01:23:31,673
Yeah, OK, all right. Well,
we'll talk at Thanksgiving. Bye-bye.
1186
01:23:33,092 --> 01:23:36,470
Now, here's a song that Norma sang
1187
01:23:36,595 --> 01:23:39,431
on that trip we made up
to the show in Buffalo.
1188
01:23:39,556 --> 01:23:42,518
And, oh, was she beautiful that night!
1189
01:23:42,643 --> 01:23:45,270
- Come on!
- Oh, yes, you were, dear.
1190
01:23:45,395 --> 01:23:49,566
Don't you remember that night?
She was so beautiful
1191
01:23:49,691 --> 01:23:52,111
that when men saw her
walking along the street,
1192
01:23:52,236 --> 01:23:55,948
they'd drive their cars
right up on the sidewalk.
1193
01:23:56,073 --> 01:23:58,867
- That right, honey?
- A slight exaggeration.
1194
01:23:58,992 --> 01:24:01,161
But only slight.
1195
01:24:02,246 --> 01:24:04,248
(♪ Father plays piano)
1196
01:24:27,813 --> 01:24:29,940
You've been very cold to me tonight.
1197
01:24:30,065 --> 01:24:31,733
No.
1198
01:24:31,859 --> 01:24:34,153
Is something wrong?
1199
01:24:34,278 --> 01:24:37,364
Not here.
There are too many people around.
1200
01:24:39,283 --> 01:24:40,784
Hey, Hannah?
1201
01:24:40,909 --> 01:24:46,790
I think Lee is really serious about
her new boyfriend. He sounds really nice.
1202
01:24:46,915 --> 01:24:50,002
I'm so happy for her.
I think she's in love.
1203
01:24:50,127 --> 01:24:53,964
- Hey, what's the matter?
- I'm real upset about what you wrote.
1204
01:24:54,089 --> 01:24:56,925
- My script?
- It's obviously based on Elliot and me.
1205
01:24:57,050 --> 01:25:00,345
- Oh, so loosely.
- No, not loosely. Real specifically!
1206
01:25:00,470 --> 01:25:02,139
Is that how you see us?
1207
01:25:02,264 --> 01:25:07,019
Can I not accept gestures and feelings
from people? Do I put people off?
1208
01:25:07,144 --> 01:25:09,813
- It's a made-up story.
- No, it's real exact!
1209
01:25:09,938 --> 01:25:12,316
The situations, the dialogue,
everything!
1210
01:25:12,441 --> 01:25:15,611
It's full of intimate details
between Elliot and me,
1211
01:25:15,736 --> 01:25:18,780
which I don't see how you could
even possibly know about!
1212
01:25:18,906 --> 01:25:21,200
A conversation we once had
about adoption?
1213
01:25:21,325 --> 01:25:24,953
Lee mentioned that to me,
so obviously you discussed it with her.
1214
01:25:25,078 --> 01:25:27,539
I took the essence
and I blew it up into drama.
1215
01:25:27,664 --> 01:25:31,210
How could Lee know about these things?
I don't tell her everything.
1216
01:25:31,335 --> 01:25:33,128
Wow. I guess I hit a nerve.
1217
01:25:33,253 --> 01:25:37,841
You make it sound like I have no needs.
You think I'm too self-sufficient?
1218
01:25:37,966 --> 01:25:40,510
Hannah, that's not what I meant,
you know?
1219
01:25:40,636 --> 01:25:43,513
Everybody relies on you for so much.
You're so giving!
1220
01:25:43,639 --> 01:25:45,933
It's not a criticism.
We love you, we're grateful.
1221
01:25:46,058 --> 01:25:48,560
You're grateful but you resent me.
1222
01:25:48,685 --> 01:25:52,105
Wow. I don't wanna have this
conversation. I didn't do anything wrong.
1223
01:25:52,231 --> 01:25:55,359
You mentioned to me yourself
you and Elliot were having problems.
1224
01:25:55,484 --> 01:25:57,819
Yeah, we're having problems,
but they're my business,
1225
01:25:57,945 --> 01:26:00,697
which I don't see how you could
know about in such detail!
1226
01:26:00,822 --> 01:26:04,326
How does Lee know about these things?
How? They're private!
1227
01:26:04,451 --> 01:26:08,205
- Why don't you share them with us?
- I don't want to bother everyone.
1228
01:26:08,330 --> 01:26:11,083
That's the point.
I'd like to be bothered.
1229
01:26:11,208 --> 01:26:14,836
How could you know about these things?
Has Elliot been talking to you?
1230
01:26:14,962 --> 01:26:19,007
No, he hasn't.
If I offended you, I'm sorry.
1231
01:26:22,052 --> 01:26:25,180
(Lee) It's over, Elliot.
I don't know how to be any clearer.
1232
01:26:25,305 --> 01:26:28,016
- I know I deserve it...
- I'm just as much at fault.
1233
01:26:28,141 --> 01:26:31,395
- I have such feelings for you...
- I've got to be honest with you.
1234
01:26:31,520 --> 01:26:32,813
I've met someone else.
1235
01:26:32,938 --> 01:26:35,440
- What do you mean?
- I've met someone else.
1236
01:26:35,565 --> 01:26:39,528
- I told you I wouldn't wait for ever.
- It hasn't been for ever.
1237
01:26:39,653 --> 01:26:42,864
It's been nearly a year
and you're still married to my sister,
1238
01:26:42,990 --> 01:26:46,994
which I now realise is fine. You're much
more in love with her than you know.
1239
01:26:47,119 --> 01:26:50,831
- But we made so many plans.
- And in a way you led me on.
1240
01:26:50,956 --> 01:26:53,375
I truly believed you were unhappy
with Hannah.
1241
01:26:53,500 --> 01:26:55,794
Otherwise I would never
have been drawn in.
1242
01:26:55,919 --> 01:26:59,423
I was very weak. So were you.
Now I've met someone...
1243
01:27:02,926 --> 01:27:05,804
- Dinner soon?
- About 15 minutes.
1244
01:27:08,056 --> 01:27:11,393
- But you're in love overnight.
- I care a great deal about him, yes.
1245
01:27:11,518 --> 01:27:15,397
- Lee...
- It's over. Elliot, I mean it. It's over.
1246
01:27:18,567 --> 01:27:22,279
Sweetheart, I loved your script.
I thought it was so clever.
1247
01:27:22,404 --> 01:27:25,324
You're my mother. Not everybody's
gonna be such a sucker.
1248
01:27:25,449 --> 01:27:27,909
I particularly liked
the character of the mother,
1249
01:27:28,035 --> 01:27:31,538
just a boozy old flirt
with a filthy mouth.
1250
01:27:31,663 --> 01:27:34,124
- I'm so proud!
- Oh, Mom, thanks.
1251
01:27:35,208 --> 01:27:37,377
Here's a toast to Thanksgiving,
all right?
1252
01:27:37,502 --> 01:27:41,256
Are we supposed to have beer?
Yeah, let me hear it!
1253
01:27:41,381 --> 01:27:43,258
How's that, Fletcher?
1254
01:27:43,383 --> 01:27:47,554
Doll, to Thanksgiving. Here's a little
toast, doll. Come on, bottoms up!
1255
01:27:48,138 --> 01:27:52,309
Have you been talking to Holly or Lee
about us, about our personal life?
1256
01:27:52,434 --> 01:27:54,061
(Elliot) Me? Of course not.
1257
01:27:54,186 --> 01:27:57,731
Holly wrote things about us
that are so personal,
1258
01:27:57,856 --> 01:27:59,483
they can only have come from you.
1259
01:27:59,608 --> 01:28:02,235
I've got a headache
and I don't like being accused!
1260
01:28:02,361 --> 01:28:08,575
I'm not accusing, I'm asking. Do you
find me too giving, too competent?
1261
01:28:08,700 --> 01:28:11,828
- Too disgustingly perfect or something?
- No.
1262
01:28:11,953 --> 01:28:15,123
What is it? What's come between us?
How have I alienated you?
1263
01:28:15,248 --> 01:28:18,710
- Hannah, my head is throbbing.
- You never wanna talk about it.
1264
01:28:18,835 --> 01:28:22,881
Every time I bring it up,
you change the subject. What is it?
1265
01:28:23,006 --> 01:28:25,842
We're communicating less,
you sleep with me less...
1266
01:28:25,967 --> 01:28:28,929
Hannah, I am very mixed up!
Now, please!
1267
01:28:29,054 --> 01:28:32,391
Do you talk to Holly or Lee
behind my back? Do you?
1268
01:28:32,516 --> 01:28:34,810
You must. They seem to know
so much about us.
1269
01:28:34,935 --> 01:28:37,896
Maybe I've asked advice
once or twice, or made a joke.
1270
01:28:38,021 --> 01:28:41,858
Do you talk to Holly, or Lee, or what?
Do you phone them?
1271
01:28:41,983 --> 01:28:44,069
Leave me alone, can you?
1272
01:28:44,194 --> 01:28:47,447
Jesus, I've told you.
I need someone I can matter to!
1273
01:28:47,572 --> 01:28:49,741
You matter to me, completely.
1274
01:28:49,866 --> 01:28:53,870
It's hard to be around someone who gives
so much and needs so little in return.
1275
01:28:53,995 --> 01:28:55,872
I have enormous needs.
1276
01:28:55,997 --> 01:28:59,501
Well, I can't see them,
and neither can Lee or Holly!
1277
01:30:00,061 --> 01:30:02,939
(Hannah) It's so pitch black tonight.
1278
01:30:04,733 --> 01:30:06,776
I feel lost.
1279
01:30:08,195 --> 01:30:10,238
(Elliot) You're not lost.
1280
01:30:19,831 --> 01:30:21,917
I love you so much.
1281
01:31:12,133 --> 01:31:16,388
I dunno if you remember me, but we had
the worst night of my life together.
1282
01:31:16,513 --> 01:31:18,682
- I remember you.
- Yes, you do recall?
1283
01:31:18,807 --> 01:31:22,936
I was walking past and I just saw you
and I thought I'd come in.
1284
01:31:23,061 --> 01:31:27,023
- We didn't hit it off.
- We did all but exchange gunshots.
1285
01:31:27,148 --> 01:31:29,484
- How are you?
- Good. You look wonderful.
1286
01:31:29,609 --> 01:31:31,903
- Oh, no.
- Yeah? No, you do.
1287
01:31:32,028 --> 01:31:35,740
It was a terrible evening. Remember
slamming the cab door in my face?
1288
01:31:35,865 --> 01:31:39,369
You came dangerously close
to emasculating my nose
1289
01:31:39,494 --> 01:31:41,288
in a really horrible way.
1290
01:31:41,413 --> 01:31:43,039
That was a long time ago.
1291
01:31:43,164 --> 01:31:45,125
- People change.
- I hope you've changed.
1292
01:31:45,250 --> 01:31:47,419
- I hope you have too.
- I hope so, for your sake.
1293
01:31:47,544 --> 01:31:52,465
Your personality left something
to be desired, namely a personality.
1294
01:31:52,591 --> 01:31:54,926
So how are you? What are you doing?
1295
01:31:55,051 --> 01:31:58,597
Oh, nothing much. Just some stuff.
Little of this, little of that.
1296
01:31:58,722 --> 01:32:02,851
Was that an embarrassing question?
Are you out of work or something?
1297
01:32:02,976 --> 01:32:06,938
- No, well, I've been trying to write.
- Have you? That's interesting.
1298
01:32:07,063 --> 01:32:09,232
- What kind of stuff?
- Oh...
1299
01:32:09,357 --> 01:32:12,527
- You're not interested in this.
- No, you can tell me. I am.
1300
01:32:12,652 --> 01:32:15,196
Millions must say to you,
"I have something I just wrote."
1301
01:32:15,322 --> 01:32:17,532
- Nobody ever said it. This is it.
- Really?
1302
01:32:17,657 --> 01:32:23,163
- Would you be willing to read something?
- Yes, if it would mean anything to you.
1303
01:32:23,288 --> 01:32:27,292
I don't know why it would.
You've always hated my taste in the past.
1304
01:32:27,417 --> 01:32:29,586
- No, I haven't!
- You have.
1305
01:32:29,711 --> 01:32:34,924
I think it might make a great television
script, and you're so active in television.
1306
01:32:35,050 --> 01:32:38,928
Not anymore.
I haven't been in television for a year.
1307
01:32:39,054 --> 01:32:41,056
No, I may have to get back into it
1308
01:32:41,181 --> 01:32:43,975
cos my accountant says
that I'm running out of dollars.
1309
01:32:44,100 --> 01:32:48,688
But no, I sort of dropped out for a year,
which is a long, dull story.
1310
01:32:48,813 --> 01:32:52,108
- You're OK, though?
- Yes, I'm fine. How are you?
1311
01:32:52,233 --> 01:32:54,027
- I'm fine.
- What about your script?
1312
01:32:54,152 --> 01:32:57,614
I'd love it if you'd read it
cos I really would value your opinion.
1313
01:32:57,739 --> 01:33:01,868
But you have to remember while you're
reading and you're cursing my name,
1314
01:33:01,993 --> 01:33:05,080
that this is my first script.
Well, it's not my first.
1315
01:33:05,205 --> 01:33:08,792
That was about Hannah and
her husband, but Hannah read it.
1316
01:33:08,917 --> 01:33:11,336
She got really angry
and then I felt badly.
1317
01:33:11,461 --> 01:33:16,466
- I can't imagine what you wrote.
- It wasn't anything bad, but she just...
1318
01:33:16,591 --> 01:33:19,678
So I threw it out,
but I have this other one.
1319
01:33:19,803 --> 01:33:23,348
Well, you know,
if you want me to, I would read it.
1320
01:33:23,473 --> 01:33:26,184
I don't know... Could I come over
tomorrow and read it to you?
1321
01:33:26,309 --> 01:33:29,896
Come over tomorrow and read it to me?
You must be joking!
1322
01:33:30,021 --> 01:33:33,566
I've been doing all my own reading
since I was 40.
1323
01:33:33,692 --> 01:33:36,653
I think it's lucky I ran into you.
Maybe.
1324
01:33:36,778 --> 01:33:38,780
What about me? I should've kept going.
1325
01:33:38,905 --> 01:33:42,784
I have a nagging sensation
that I should've kept walking
1326
01:33:42,909 --> 01:33:45,245
and not begun this conversation.
1327
01:33:46,413 --> 01:33:49,249
(Holly) "We all go through life
playing the hand we're dealt."
1328
01:33:49,374 --> 01:33:52,585
"Craig: And what hand were you dealt?"
1329
01:33:52,711 --> 01:33:57,382
"Emily: I'm two high pair,
maybe even aces up."
1330
01:33:57,507 --> 01:34:00,635
"The problem is,
you've got three deuces."
1331
01:34:01,928 --> 01:34:03,972
That's the end.
1332
01:34:04,889 --> 01:34:10,061
No, you can tell me straight.
It's OK. Just tell me what you think.
1333
01:34:10,186 --> 01:34:11,896
It's great.
1334
01:34:12,021 --> 01:34:14,315
I'm... speechless.
1335
01:34:14,899 --> 01:34:18,903
I was not in the mood
to listen to this thing now.
1336
01:34:20,739 --> 01:34:24,659
I don't know what to say.
I'm moved and I laughed and I...
1337
01:34:24,784 --> 01:34:27,662
I was on the edge of my seat.
I just think it's wonderful.
1338
01:34:27,787 --> 01:34:30,457
I'm totally stunned.
This is not an insult.
1339
01:34:30,582 --> 01:34:34,961
I'm amazed that you can...
I just thought it was great.
1340
01:34:35,086 --> 01:34:37,797
- Really?
- Yes. I was absolutely...
1341
01:34:37,922 --> 01:34:40,800
What made you think
of that climax scene,
1342
01:34:40,925 --> 01:34:44,554
where the architect is walking home
with his actress girlfriend
1343
01:34:44,679 --> 01:34:48,224
and the schizophrenic ex-wife
jumps out and stabs him to death?
1344
01:34:48,349 --> 01:34:52,270
- It just came to me one day.
- It was just fabulous.
1345
01:34:52,395 --> 01:34:54,689
Gosh, you really think I can write?
1346
01:34:54,814 --> 01:34:57,984
There's one or two things
I would do differently myself,
1347
01:34:58,109 --> 01:35:01,112
but who cares? It was fabulous.
1348
01:35:01,237 --> 01:35:06,451
I mean it. I'm so impressed!
I am. You've made my day.
1349
01:35:06,576 --> 01:35:11,206
It was just great.
I was all set to be bored stiff.
1350
01:35:11,331 --> 01:35:15,585
- Would you like to have lunch?
- I would love to talk about the script.
1351
01:35:15,710 --> 01:35:18,213
- I think we could do something with it.
- OK.
1352
01:35:18,338 --> 01:35:22,050
And I'd like to hear what made you
suddenly decide to drop out of life.
1353
01:35:22,175 --> 01:35:24,385
- Who cares?
- No, I care.
1354
01:35:24,511 --> 01:35:27,347
You used to be so ambitious and...
1355
01:35:27,472 --> 01:35:30,058
God, you really liked it?
1356
01:35:43,029 --> 01:35:45,073
(♪ Jazz music over dialogue)
1357
01:35:52,163 --> 01:35:56,668
Gosh, you really went through a crisis,
you know that? How did you get over it?
1358
01:35:56,793 --> 01:36:02,465
When I ran into you, you seemed just
perfectly fine. You seem fine now.
1359
01:36:02,590 --> 01:36:07,554
Well, I'll tell you. One clay,
about a month ago, I really hit bottom.
1360
01:36:07,679 --> 01:36:12,225
I just felt that in a Godless universe,
I didn't want to go on living.
1361
01:36:12,350 --> 01:36:17,772
Now, I happen to own this rifle, which
I loaded and pressed to my forehead.
1362
01:36:17,897 --> 01:36:20,441
And I remember thinking,
"I'm gonna kill myself."
1363
01:36:20,567 --> 01:36:23,152
Then I thought, "What if I'm wrong?
1364
01:36:23,278 --> 01:36:26,698
"What if there is a God?"
After all, nobody really knows that.
1365
01:36:26,823 --> 01:36:30,243
But then I thought,
"No, 'maybe' is not good enough.
1366
01:36:30,368 --> 01:36:32,871
"I want certainty or nothing."
1367
01:36:32,996 --> 01:36:36,082
And I remember very clearly
the clock was ticking,
1368
01:36:36,207 --> 01:36:39,252
and I was sitting there, frozen,
with the gun to my head,
1369
01:36:39,377 --> 01:36:41,754
debating whether to shoot.'
1370
01:36:41,880 --> 01:36:43,172
(Gunshot)
1371
01:36:44,090 --> 01:36:45,925
All of a sudden, the gun went off.
1372
01:36:46,050 --> 01:36:49,721
I'd been so tense, my finger had
squeezed the trigger inadvertently.
1373
01:36:49,846 --> 01:36:54,058
But I was perspiring so much, the gun
had slid off my forehead and missed me.
1374
01:36:54,183 --> 01:36:58,563
- (Gunshot)
- Neighbours were pounding on the door
1375
01:36:58,688 --> 01:37:01,733
and, I don't know, the whole scene
was just pandemonium.
1376
01:37:01,858 --> 01:37:07,614
And I ran to the door, I didn't know what
to say. I was embarrassed and confused.
1377
01:37:07,739 --> 01:37:12,076
My mind was racing a mile a minute,
and I just knew one thing.
1378
01:37:12,201 --> 01:37:14,454
I had to get out of that house,
1379
01:37:14,579 --> 01:37:18,666
I just had to get out in the fresh air
and clear my head.
1380
01:37:18,791 --> 01:37:22,337
And I remember very clearly
I walked the streets.
1381
01:37:22,462 --> 01:37:24,881
I didn't know what was going
through my mind.
1382
01:37:25,006 --> 01:37:28,801
It all seemed so violent
and unreal to me.
1383
01:37:28,927 --> 01:37:32,555
And I wandered for a long time
on the Upper West Side.
1384
01:37:32,680 --> 01:37:38,144
It must've been hours. My feet hurt and
my head was pounding. I had to sit down.
1385
01:37:38,269 --> 01:37:41,105
I went into a movie house.
I didn't know what was playing.
1386
01:37:41,230 --> 01:37:45,193
I just needed a moment
to gather my thoughts and be logical
1387
01:37:45,318 --> 01:37:48,738
and put the world back
into rational perspective...
1388
01:37:57,622 --> 01:38:00,875
And I went upstairs to the balcony
and I sat down.
1389
01:38:01,000 --> 01:38:06,381
And the movie was a film that I'd seen
many times in my life since I was a kid,
1390
01:38:06,506 --> 01:38:08,508
and I always loved it.
1391
01:38:08,633 --> 01:38:11,052
And I'm watching these people
up on the screen
1392
01:38:11,177 --> 01:38:14,555
and I started getting hooked
on the film.
1393
01:38:14,681 --> 01:38:19,602
And I started to feel, "How can you
even think of killing yourself?
1394
01:38:19,727 --> 01:38:21,354
"Isn't that stupid?
1395
01:38:21,479 --> 01:38:23,523
"Look at all the people up there
on the screen.
1396
01:38:23,648 --> 01:38:27,235
"They're real funny,
and what if the worst is true?
1397
01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:31,364
"What if there's no God and
you only go around once and that's it?
1398
01:38:31,489 --> 01:38:34,200
"Don't you want to be
part of the experience?
1399
01:38:34,325 --> 01:38:36,953
"What the hell? It's not all a drag."
1400
01:38:37,078 --> 01:38:40,665
I'm thinking to myself,
"Jeez, I should stop ruining my life,
1401
01:38:40,790 --> 01:38:45,753
"searching for answers I'm never
gonna get, and just enjoy it while it lasts."
1402
01:38:45,878 --> 01:38:50,883
And after, who knows? Maybe there is
something. Nobody really knows.
1403
01:38:51,009 --> 01:38:54,637
I know 'maybe' is a very slim reed
to hang your whole life on,
1404
01:38:54,762 --> 01:38:56,556
but it's the best we have.
1405
01:38:56,681 --> 01:39:02,520
And then I started to sit back
and I actually began to enjoy myself.'
1406
01:39:02,645 --> 01:39:06,107
♪ Oh, Freedonia,
Oh, don't you cry for me
1407
01:39:06,232 --> 01:39:08,234
♪ Cos I'm coming round the mountain ♪
1408
01:39:09,485 --> 01:39:15,283

01:39:15,408 --> 01:39:20,246
I just thought I'd tell you what it was
and just sort of clear the deck here.
1410
01:39:20,371 --> 01:39:24,584
I've always regretted the way
I behaved that evening we went out.
1411
01:39:24,709 --> 01:39:28,880
- I just thought I'd tell you that...
- Don't be silly. Don't be ridiculous.
1412
01:39:29,005 --> 01:39:32,383
I was the... You know, it was my fault.
1413
01:39:33,718 --> 01:39:38,598
So you wanna go out to dinner again?
Do you have any interest in that?
1414
01:39:38,723 --> 01:39:42,060
- Sure.
- Are you free this evening?
1415
01:39:42,185 --> 01:39:43,519
Yeah, yeah.
1416
01:39:50,359 --> 01:39:52,612
I want ice! Who's got some?
1417
01:39:52,737 --> 01:39:54,155
Oh, there it is.
1418
01:39:54,280 --> 01:39:56,282
Hey, where's Holly? She's late.
1419
01:39:56,407 --> 01:39:59,494
Did you read that last thing Holly wrote?
She's really developed.
1420
01:39:59,619 --> 01:40:01,454
She really writes good dialogue.
1421
01:40:01,579 --> 01:40:04,332
Hannah, can I tell everybody
you're going to play Desdemona?
1422
01:40:04,457 --> 01:40:07,960
- Mom, it's only television.
- But it's public television.
1423
01:40:08,086 --> 01:40:11,130
To me, Shakespeare doesn't get
any greater than "Othello".
1424
01:40:11,255 --> 01:40:15,468
- You with some big, black stud. I love it!
- Oh, honey!
1425
01:40:41,452 --> 01:40:44,455
(Elliot) Oh, Lee. You are something.
1426
01:40:45,540 --> 01:40:48,084
You look very beautiful.
1427
01:40:48,209 --> 01:40:50,253
Marriage agrees with you.
1428
01:40:51,838 --> 01:40:56,801
Everything that happened between us
seems more and more hazy.
1429
01:40:58,177 --> 01:41:02,682
I acted like such a fool.
I don't know what came over me.
1430
01:41:02,807 --> 01:41:06,894
The complete conviction
that I couldn't live without you.
1431
01:41:07,520 --> 01:41:09,897
What I put us both through!
1432
01:41:10,022 --> 01:41:16,195
And Hannah, who, as you once said,
I love much more than I realised.'
1433
01:41:19,115 --> 01:41:22,660
Hi! Happy Thanksgiving!
1434
01:41:24,078 --> 01:41:27,915
- Hi, Daisy. I didn't miss dinner, did I?
- No.
1435
01:41:28,040 --> 01:41:31,127
Hi, Marge. Happy Thanksgiving!
1436
01:41:31,252 --> 01:41:34,422
Happy Thanksgiving, Amy.
1437
01:41:34,547 --> 01:41:36,549
(♪ ROGERS and HART: "isn't It Romantic")
1438
01:42:35,608 --> 01:42:37,652
It's beautiful.
1439
01:42:41,197 --> 01:42:43,282
- Don't be nervous. It's your husband.
- Hi.
1440
01:42:43,407 --> 01:42:45,117
- Hi. How are you doing?
- OK.
1441
01:42:45,243 --> 01:42:47,912
- When did you get here?
- Just a few minutes ago.
1442
01:42:48,037 --> 01:42:50,248
- You look so beautiful.
- Thanks.
1443
01:42:50,373 --> 01:42:54,710
I was talking to your father before.
I was telling him that it's ironic.
1444
01:42:54,835 --> 01:42:57,463
I used to always have
Thanksgiving with Hannah.
1445
01:42:57,588 --> 01:43:01,092
I never thought that
I could love anybody else.
1446
01:43:01,217 --> 01:43:04,512
And here it is, years later,
and I'm married to you
1447
01:43:04,637 --> 01:43:06,806
and completely in love with you.
1448
01:43:06,931 --> 01:43:10,768
The heart is a very,
very resilient little muscle.
1449
01:43:12,770 --> 01:43:14,772
It'd make a great story, I think.
1450
01:43:14,897 --> 01:43:18,067
A guy marries one sister
and it doesn't work out.
1451
01:43:18,192 --> 01:43:23,489
Then, years later, he winds up
married to the other sister.
1452
01:43:23,614 --> 01:43:26,492
How you're gonna top that?
1453
01:43:27,618 --> 01:43:29,495
- Mickey?
- What?
1454
01:43:31,038 --> 01:43:32,665
I'm pregnant.
