BASED ON THE BOOK MR. and MRS. AMERICAN PIE

BY JULIET MCDANIEL

Here she is.

Luckily you arrived just in time. I thought I was going to die of thirst.

Well, we certainly don't want that, do we?

It's deliciously dry.

Like the brains of these customers.

Come on, join me.

I don't think that's allowed, ma'am.

Come on, sit down.

Nobody will care. Believe me.

- Who are you? - Excuse me, how?

You served me these delights for the whole season,

yet I have to admit that I know almost nothing about you.

Tell me about the man behind the Martini.

My name is Robert.

And I grew up in Puerto Rico.

Tell me, Robert, How much do you miss your family?

We don't talk to each other.

It's a common problem.

I only have one nephew with a wife horrendous to say the least.

Well, I'm very sorry.

Do not be sorry.

However, I have to admit that I feel a little lonely sometimes,

when I wander in that big house, on my own.

I really need someone to carry out certain tasks.

What kind of homework?

In due time, my boy.

The only thing I ask in return it's complete discretion.

Are you the right man for the job?

Help!

Help! Help!

But where did they all go?

My so-called dear friends leave me die alone in the middle of the sea.

How can they do it?

They're all so obsessed

from their small, ignoble lives?

Have they forgotten about me?

Of course I say yes.

I just want to make your life easier.

Yes I know. Me too!

Motherfuckers.

Or should I say whores of whores.

It's so funny.

But it's also sad.

Very sad indeed.

But they don't know that

a forgotten woman she is the most dangerous woman of all

Because a forgotten woman she has nothing left to lose

Linda doesn't answer.

You are the only friend that I have left in the world, Bernadette.

Unless you stayed here just to feast on my bones,

like the rest of the savages of this city.

Who are you calling?

Maxine.

What will you tell her?

That they threw you in after an arrest of homosexuals?

Damn. What the hell happened to me...

Dellacorte Residence, I'm Mary Meredith Davidsoul.

Mary? What the hell are you doing in my house?

I took Norma home after the boat party.

Your wife had left her to rot on the bridge.

What are you talking about? Where has Maxine gone?

I haven't the slightest idea. But you have to rush home.

I'm late for my club of awareness,

and I'm not sure that my awareness...

should lose out just because your wife she is a complete disaster!

You shouldn't eat chocolate.

Maxine didn't come back last night.

She too will have an affair.

What are you talking about, handsome?

Let's go, you promised me to keep it a secret!

It is true. I promise I won't say anything more.

Well.

Because if Maxine found out, she would certainly die from it.

I was a fool, wasn't I?

To think that an insignificant nobody like the undersigned

could be chosen for...

Bernadette!

Save yourself, at least you!

Tell my husband I love him so much!

Ahoi, space man.

Ahoi.

How's it going, good?

- Yes she? - A fairy tale, now!

Would you like to come to a party?

What did she say?

A party!

It's called Dance... It doesn't matter, I'll explain later.

Swim towards me. I will save her.

Thank you, sweet celestial baby Jesus.

Mr. Diaz, I need to talk to you.

I told you to stay out of there, at night.

- I didn't understand what you meant. - What happen?

We have already seen each other.

Yes, I arrested her.

It's a pleasure to see you again.

Listen, if you could help us to get out of here.

I'm sure my wife

she-she is very worried. - I don't think so.

I would say instead that she is very busy, at the moment.

Very busy. Meaning what?

Tell us more about how you met this missing mermaid.

Well, I was passing by there,

Ithought I'd offer give this hitchhiker a lift.

It didn't seem too dangerous to me.

But what the hell?

Is he going to go to the White House

I'm sure the President wants it offer her my congratulations

Yes, I would be happy to do so.

I would really like to visit the President.

But I was invited to a party

from this lovely lady to my right.

The President will also be welcome if he wants

- We have to get out of here. - It's the 50th anniversary

- of the Dance on the Beach. - I know who to call.

Excuse me, I have to make a call.

I will sing.

Wow. I would really like to listen to it.

Nice move by NASA take you both to the studio.

Well, NASA appreciates good publicity.

- Sometimes... - I swear to God,

that woman is like a cockroach. She has nine lives.

I thought you were amigas.

It made its way into my environment. This doesn't make us friends.

Yes you say.

That's how it is.

I'll prepare dinner for you this night.

- Why? - For me an incredible dish.

Do you do this with a lot of women in the club?

What intends with "esto"?

This, this, this.

If I recover everything well, you asked mi de besarte.

You truly enchanted me every minute.

- Are you waiting for someone? - Eddie, it's me.

The door is barred, so I know you're locked in there.

Go away, entre nosotros is over. I was serious about what I said to you.

Oh really? Well, you were serious even when you promised me

to love me forever?

I don't speak Spanish, Eddie.

Well, if that's what you really think

you can leave this apartment that I'm paying you. Immediately!

- Leave me in peace. - I hope you die in absolute misery!

It will happen to you safely!

Were you saying?

I'm sorry. I...

She insists on keeping secret the relationship

I no wanted to, but I think you're ashamed of me.

But I thought what I told you.

Whether you believe it or not, I'd like to prepare dinner for you.

Only, we'll have to do it en tu casa.

Here, I have to let you know later.

I just need to check my calendar first.

Saved by an astronaut.

That's the problem with this city, Norm.

Good people like us they get crushed,

but incompetent liars like Maxine Simmons gets cheered.

That cat is really worth $75,000,

right, Norma?

Since your niece he doesn't want to keep his word,

I have no choice but to confiscate this old stone pussy...

for fibrotics.

- Who? - Is anybody there?

Oh, screw it.

Douglas.

Mary.

Thank goodness you're back.

Where's Douglas?

I can't keep up to all your family, Maxine.

Isn't your poor aunt already enough?

Yes, sorry. Thank you so much for looking after Norma.

I do what he would do any good person.

I am very sorry for your misadventure, Maxine.

Thank you, Mary.

That astronaut is very handsome, though.

Oh yes? I hadn't noticed it.

Mary?

Don't you want to remind me of fibrotics?

Don't worry dear. We're even.

Thanks for coming.

I didn't know who else to call that she had some cash ready immediately.

I feel a little embarrassed for this situation.

I agree, and I believe that I should let you talk, so...

Yes, that would be a good idea.

Yes, but I have to get out of the car.

And you have to go out first to be able to get me out.

Thank you.

You're sending me mixed signals, Douglas.

I did not want to.

We made a mistake, that's all.

I wouldn't have wanted to take your money, but I decided that I will take them anyway...

minus what I paid for the bail...

and I'm going to New York to be a model.

This seems like a great plan to me.

Well, then I wish you have a good life, Mitzi.

Right back at you.

No, no, no.

Girls, I've learned that, if you want to get noticed,

you have to make a grand gesture. Like Maxine's.

She probably jumped into the sea alone from the boat to attract attention.

Well, we are manufacturing counterfeit passports.

We don't need any further attention.

You broke the vow of silence, or do you want to mime your bullshit to me?

I became hoarse from the silence. So come talk to me?

Woh. You started really fast.

Well, participate, make yourself useful.

Sorry I can not. I'm leaving for an ashram.

Well, say hello to Ringo.

Let's hope. I'm going to Peru.

But, anyway, you can stay all here as much as you want.

I'll leave you the checkbook, please help yourself.

Take your beanbags and get out of my house, hippies.

- I'm moving back here. - Like hell.

I need a place to make dinner. Therefore, miss,

give me this house back immediately or I...

Or otherwise? You will call the police and will you tell her that I killed my father?

What are you talking about?

Douglas arrived long before you.

Therefore, Douglas will get two million of daddy's money.

And you won't get shit.

- I'm sorry, Evelyn. - Fuck you, Mary.

Boone's Farm Fruity Wine?

What the... But where did it go? my champagne?

What a mess it is...

Oh, Maxine. Oh, baby, thank goodness you're okay.

Yes, but certainly not thanks to you. Where have you been?

Well, I already told you, I had an urgent business meeting at the club.

A business meeting,

while I instead was floating in the sea like huge shark bait?

Couldn't you have sent someone? The Coast Guard!

At least one fishing boat.

I didn't even know you were missing.

I'm very sorry, Maxine. I feel guilty.

Robert, it's not your fault.

Listen, when I was out there afloat, alone...

I felt guilty.

I couldn't stop thinking about you. I had good intentions.

Don't worry, please. Everything is fine.

No, however.

What a friend I would be if I knew that someone might hurt you,

and I didn't tell you anything?

- A very bad friend. - Exact.

Baby, why now Aren't you going upstairs to relax?

- Relax? - Already.

Do you want me to relax? Relax? I can't relax.

I will host the party of my life in 48 hours!

I have to go upstairs, then put on my leotard and try my choreography.

Relax.

Easy for you to say.

Relax with your business meetings to the club!

You are very good.

- To lie. - What should I have said?

That they threw me in with some gays while I confessed to the pool cleaner

to have had a relationship with the beautician?

- Douglas. - Mitzi,

- what are you doing here? - OMG.

I hid waiting for Maxine to go upstairs.

- Why? - My car won't start.

- Maxine. - Maxine?

- What happens? - Ann.

- Maxine? - My God. What happened?

I do not know. She said she wanted to give take a look at Norma's albums,

and I found her lying like that.

- I can still feel the pulse. - Thank goodness.

Maybe she just fell asleep.

- Mitzi? - In the meantime I'll call an ambulance.

Yes.

Hello, Maxine.

Oh, thank God you're here. We need all the help we can get.

I do not know what to do. Ann! Ann!

- Will he recover? - Hard to say.

They will have to do some tests on her.

I'm sorry, but I really have to go now.

- What? - I just stopped by to say hello.

I'm going to New York City.

Mitzi, you can't abandon me before the Dance on the Beach.

- You should help me with the choreography. - I can't stay.

- I left my apartment. - Nonsense. You will stay with us.

- We have many rooms. - I don't want to disturb you.

We really have to go.

- Okay. A minute. -You said you don't want to disturb us.

Well, I don't care what you guys want. I almost drowned.

Maybe it's time to do it my way.

But what are you doing?

What am I doing? I'm going with her.

I know what she means be left to die.

You can only do this when is there a problem?

Eat your nails? Stop that!

Mitzi, do me a favor, put aloe nail polish on Douglas.

- He needs to break the habit. - We really have to go.

Agree. Let's go then!

PALM BEACH FIREFIGHTERS

What is aloe nail polish?

You have the worst nails ever.

You must be very stressed.

Out of curiosity, do you do this often?

No it's the first time.

No, not the manicure.

No.

It was the first time with you too.

I find it hard to believe, you know.

It's this fucking Palm Beach.

Palm Beach certainly didn't invite me in that closet, Douglas.

I had told Maxine that I didn't want to come back here.

Now you're blaming Maxine?

Ninth. The thing is, I didn't want to disappoint her.

It's very easy to talk to you, Mitzi.

Beauticians and bartenders.

They are good listeners.

You study human nature.

To get tips.

It seems like both we had a bad night.

Oh, it must be hard face all this

without anyone nearby.

Do you have any loved ones, Ann?

Let's do this, you'll tell me what I should know about you

when you wake up. Agree?

Maxine?

Oh, by all the stars.

We continue to meet.

We are in the same orbit. Excuse me. It's terrible astronaut humor.

Who is your friend?

This is my friend Onn Haliday. Ann Holiday.

She is a journalist. She writes on The Shiny Sheet

Now in a coma. She is a journalist in a coma.

What a horror!

Yes. What are you doing here?

I had to do some blood tests, since I won't be able to return to base.

And then here is the oncology department pediatrician and I had to say goodbye to everyone.

Why can't you return to base?

You invited me to a party in a couple of days, remember?

And you will sing!

- I know this might sound silly. - Of course not.

Before I became passionate about space,

I was a really good pianist.

I'm sure someone like you He already has someone who will accompany him...

No, I don't have anyone.

I don't really have someone who...

I would be truly honored if you would like to caress my keys.

Of course. I'd love that. What song will you sing?

Is that all?

Is that all?

If that's all, my friends

Then let's continue dancing

It's the perfect shade! I thank you.

Okay. So, then my balloon will drop.

I told you I'll be sitting astride a balloon?

- Fantastic. - Yes. Okay.

Okay. Okay.

The showgirls will cross paths, I will move the seaweed.

Then the seahorses will descend.

Oh, Mitzi! At that point, you will go down the stairs.

And when you do, you will have to execute a grapevine, right?

To the left. I want a grapevine.

Not a shuffle off the buffalo.

All right, then I'll come down.

And I will wait for the applause. Oh thanks.

Oh, and bubbles afterwards.

Bubbles everywhere. Bubbles will start raining.

Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles. Which will start my speech.

"Thank you all. Thank you.

You may be wondering now: Who is Maxine Dellacorte? I'm right?"

Oh, and I was thinking that for this part,

I could sit on the edge of the stage, to make everything intimate.

Do you think it's too much?

Maybe that's a little too much.

I appreciate your sincerity.

Agree.

"Well, the answer is simple. She's just a girl, really.

A simple orphan girl of Tennessee."

No, wait a minute. Are you from Tennessee?

Already. Chattanooga.

But it's crazy. Johnson City.

- Are you taking me for a ride? - Not at all.

Don't use our sayings.

I travelled a lot.

Are you really an orphan?

Yes.

My parents left me in a sink

on the steps of an orphanage when I was six months old.

- I am very sorry. - It happens.

- I'm an orphan too. - Now you're really making fun of me!

But no, I swear.

Well, look at you now.

As an orphan that you were, you have become a space hero.

And look at you. Born in a sink, you've become the rich girl of the year.

I don't think I was actually born in that sink, but who knows?

But you're America's sweetheart, right?

Let's all take a break.

Five minutes.

Douglas?

I don't like that guy.

Astronaut Herkimer? But he is harmless.

You're too naive, Maxine.

You don't see what you own in front of your eyes, sometimes.

I know astronauts well. I was a pilot, remember?

Good afternoon.

But what is he doing here?

Oh, Sergeant Sanka.

To what do we owe the pleasure... this afternoon?

I'm here because I would like to introduce you Agent Clune...

and Agent Stevens.

Oh, never! The FBI.

Secret services.

President Nixon accepted his invitation, ma'am.

He will attend his party.

Nix... What?

Oh, mom. Oh... I'm about to pass out.

He wants to congratulate with astronaut Herkimer

for his extraordinary act of courage.

He is a true American hero.

Why this obsession?

The President will come. He wants to meet us.

- We! - Big thrills!

-He will come to the party. - Big thrills!

Come here! OMG...

Precisely at 9.00 pm, the President will arrive.

He will say a few words on American exceptionalism

personified by astronaut Herkimer and...

Maxine Dellacorte.

At 9.10pm, you will pose with the President for an official photo.

Don't touch it. At 9.13pm, the President will leave.

Oh, maybe he'll want to stay for my musical number.

We saw the cottage cheese upon entering.

Nice touch. It is the President's favorite dish.

Everything will be perfect for Nixon!

Major Herkimer has already passed the security check.

But about you two... There are still some problems.

A file. How official.

We were hoping you could help us to clarify doubts.

So, this is your signature, correct?

Yes. What is it?

It's a petition from an organization radical feminist

in which it says that you support the removal of the President

give him assignments because he is a warmonger and an evil man.

Believe me. I had no idea what I was signing about.

- You don't like reading? - No.

But I can assure you that now I am not, nor have I ever been,

and nor will I ever be a feminist.

That document is... It's completely harmless.

Just like those ladies that smell like patchouli

and they are on the other side of the street on some velvet pouf.

On the other side of the road?

They completely infested the Rollins villa.

- Evelyn is beside herself. - Who is Evelyn?

-She IS my best friend from the club. -He's a thorn in her side.

I guess they promoted you.

I will work at the party as an officer liaison with the police.

You just had to unmask a bar full of men like you.

I'm sure you are a saint.

That your lifestyle doesn't have Never caused problems for others.

Most of the time, I love my job.

Other times, however, no.

We both know they are there a right time and a wrong time

to open your mouth.

Well,

now that we know my wife he won't set fire to her bra,

- are we done, guys? - Not yet.

Her wife isn't the only one he has some stain in one's past.

If it's the Perry Donahue deal, well, you know that has already been clarified.

Yes, it may be,

but now we are referring on charges of indecent exposure

and solicitation of homosexuals with a certain Mr. Diaz.

- What risk are you talking about? - How do you know?

- It just happened. - Douglas!

We're the Secret Service, sir. It's our job to know the secrets.

Douglas, what are they talking about?

It's just a big misunderstanding, Maxine.

Sense? It's just a big misunderstanding. That's all.

It does not mean that the President isn't coming, right?

If it was for me,

I wouldn't let the President approached this house of corrupt people,

but he really wants to meet the astronaut.

MY HERO!

An astronaut? It was obvious that Maxine would succeed

to overshadow my engagement.

Honestly, I don't know what it is so special about her.

She really hasa very beautiful house

That astronaut, however...

I would love to measure his crotch. Here, dear. Try this.

Grayman, I thought this it was for Evelyn.

The little voice goes around that she can't afford it.

And these are my congratulations for the wedding.

It's all so strange.

I'm about to become the young trophy wife of a fabulously rich man.

I should be happier.

But Axel confessed to me something disturbing.

Won't he be sick?

Worse. He is a Democrat. He was Humphrey's biggest supporter.

Oh dear. There are much worse things.

Just the woman I was looking for. Dinah, the dressing room?

- The one over there - You come.

Yes ma'am!

I thank you infinitely.

Gentlemen, I wish you a good day.

Drive slowly.

What a hellish Lucifer is this happening here?

While I was holding on to a piece of driftwood,

my husband and my friend are coming Caught soliciting gays in a bar?

And you told me that Douglas wasn't your type.

Oh, no?

Of course not.

And it wasn't this what we were doing, Maxine.

Agree. Well, what were you doing then?

Answer me!

Well, he wanted to talk to me but he didn't know I was in a gay bar.

So, I, you know, we were...

We were planning a surprise for you. For your dance.

It's right.

Have you continually thought about me?

You were the topic of conversation for the whole evening, Maxine.

Isn't that true, Robby?

Robert. Certain.

Sorry if I doubted you.

But I don't want to cry and ruin my makeup.

I have to deal with the vultures at Ceil Chapman who left me to drown.

- Well, you're beautiful, Maxine. - Excuse me.

Thank you.

For a moment I thought that you would have exposed me.

Better get organized a big surprise for my friend.

Yes.

- Pretty dress. - You didn't come here

- to talk about my dress. - No.

- So, what do you want? - Just sentimental advice.

I'm new in this field, and you are clearly very successful.

A little birdie told me you were dating secretly a very sexy Cuban tennis player.

So, that little bird's name is Maxine?

Maybe she. Yes.

If you want to know, unfortunately, now she's over between the two of us.

I would have married Axel just to support Eddie.

You don't have the slightest idea how expensive a lover is.

Girls! I have an announcement to make.

I know. Yes. You are surprised to see me, since you had given me up for dead.

But the lemons you gave me they became lemonade,

because the President, Mr. Richard Milhous Nixon,

he'll come here, to the Beach Dance.

Is President Nixon coming to your fiesta?

He wants to meet the astronaut, yes. And me.

Absolute amazement!

But should we really applaud it?

Nixon is evil, right? He is a bad person.

Mary, you have a shoelace around the brain.

He's killing innocents, Evelyn.

I would say leave politics out of the party, okay?

We're all American patriots, right?

I'll go get your dress. It is an exceptional creation.

Just like you.

Maxine, one word.

Let's dish out the truth!

I'm happy to hear you say that.

I had some problems with the catering in recent days.

I made myself a lover...

and he doesn't know that I'm homeless and without money.

But I've decided that I want to keep it.

Maxine,

I learned something about myself

the evening I looked straight that whale in the eyeballs.

Oh, that's funny you should say that.

I learned something too during my stay at sea.

- Let's say it together with my three! One... - I should organize it

Dancing on the Beach.

Here, as much as I respect your cetacean change...

Not even if you kill me!

I would be really willing to organize it with you,

as established in our initial agreement.

For half the proceeds, obviously.

What if I refused instead?

Well, then I'd raise a bomb threat

and little Dicky Nix wouldn't come at Maxine's little party.

You would not.

Try me.

I was a showgirl, darling. We are all grit and handfuls of greasepaint.

You liked the fruity wine and the cottage cheese?

Who do you think made those orders?

Looks like it backfired on you,

because the President loves it the cottage cheese.

I can't wait for you to taste them all at our party.

Grayman, tell Dinah to take off my dress

and put it on the bill of Mrs. Dellacorte.

We have already agreed.

- Hands up! You are under arrest! - Stop!

You have the right to remain silent.

Everything you say can be used against you in court.

Who sent you?

You are under arrest for threats against the President

and for aiding and abetting dissidents.

Watch your head.

Oh hello.

HI.

Gimlet? Are we keeping it simple?

Hey.

You left the room.

I'm leaving the country. I will go to an Ashram.

How long?

A year, maybe more. So I wanted to say hello.

Why?

I am officially a complete disaster.

I'll miss you.

Well, come with me then.

- What are you saying? - Leave this bullshit behind.

- Oh, come on, Linda. - Robert, I'm not joking.

Go where you can be yourself.

He go to New York City.

The Stonewall riots will succeed to change anything.

I can't leave Norma.

Douglas and Maxine will think of her.

You know it's my fault if this is the case, right?

No, you don't know this. And now I need a drink.

So...

I didn't tell anyone...

but the night she almost died,

I had an appointment,

and she didn't want me to leave,

so we fought really a lot.

I was angry.

I left and I did it on purpose. I wanted to punish her.

And when I came back, she was lying on the floor.

She had tried to get high one injection alone,

and apparently there was an air bubble in the insulin.

I didn't even know she was diabetic.

Nobody knew. She didn't want to that no one would know that she is weak.

Robert... Please don't do this to yourself.

Don't do that what I did with my father.

Let go of the guilt.

Linda. I don't like the outside world as you like.

I just want an easy life, safe and secure...

and she offered me one.

Sure, Palm Beach is beautiful.

And you actually think you feel safe here with Norma.

But this city is built on secrets,

and secrets don't keep you safe.

The outside world always has a way to find us.

Before he finds us.

Before he finds us.

My love! Congratulations to your President.

Oh, thank you, Raquel.

Maybe he will be the first member of the nuevo club.

- How, sorry? - You did not hear?

Douglas and Pinky will build a club todo nuevo.

Y serà mas grande and mas hermoso of the old and rusty Palm Royale.

Wait, what new club?

The new club that will be based in your home.

At my home?

You home. Casa de Norma.

House of Douglas. What does it matter? It has become our home now!

What are you talking about?

Douglas!

Here she is!

You didn't sell our house without telling me about it first,

It is not true?

- Treasure... - And don't "tear" me, please.

You did it?

I wanted to tell you, but then you fell off that boat.

Don't you dare blame me.

I can't believe I thought that that would have been different.

You do shit, and I'll fix it.

We move and start over.

Actually, I thought that if I had given you all this,

maybe you would have changed!

Maxine, I'm trying not to do any bullshit.

I did it for us.

It doesn't seem like it at all.

Darling, you deserve to become the queen of Palm Beach.

The Queen of Palm Beach?

The man who insured himself says so that I wouldn't become Miss Chattanooga.

Oh, hi, Mary. But where are they all?

They took them to prison.

They gathered them in a mobile van.

Those bastards.

You know why they call him mobile van?

Because it massacres cells!

I don't think that's the reason.

No, I know that van.

My husband, David Davidsoul he locked me in one of those,

a couple of times a year.

Oh yes. If I even just did it a noise in the house,

David called the van cell phone.

And all of this is Richard Nixon's fault.

I'm not following you.

If Nixon wasn't expected at Maxine's party,

the secret services would not have surrounded our great warriors...

- We could have protested. - We could have killed him.

What?

Killing it.

And we can still do it.

Oh, wait, Mary.

Sorry, you didn't mean it that he is responsible

of the deaths of thousands of people?

I know your intentions are good. But believe me,

you don't really want to become the woman considered the crazy girl of this city.

You would lose the only power that you own now.

You sound like a supporter of the patriarchy.

I'm not trying to oppress you.

Obviously, you're not clear-headed Right now.

For the first time in my life instead I am completely lucid.

Well, you know, I wouldn't want to have to call police.

Of course, me neither...

I want you to call the police.

Therefore, you will not do anything rash.

Certain.

Promise?

Obviously.

I think this season stressed me out a little too much.

I could use a little vacation.

Maybe I'll go visit Panama.

- Or Peru. - Safe.

Agreed, Mary.

I'm sorry, Linda. I am very sorry.

Excuse me. I arrived a little early.

I just wanted to try again another time.

I get nervous... before an event.

Seriously? You?

We need a term to describe feeling like an impostor.

It seems to me that you are the opposite.

I remember when I was little, I always looked at the moon.

I sat in the garden and I was shaking in my pajamas.

Is it a woman's face that I see?

Or is it a wheel of cheese?

And I thought to myself: "Is this really all there is to this moon?"

You're funny.

And you, sweet.

I love the piano.

I always wanted to play it at competitions of beauty. You know, for the talent test.

I learned to run instead.

I'm sure you're good.

You need the right teacher.

On. Come on, play. Come on, play with me.

Yes.

Okay.

Yes.

You're good. You do not need me.

I am sorry. Did I misinterpret the signals?

The signs?

My hero.

The invitation.

The song.

This is not a metaphor for failure of your wedding?

This song speaks to accept one's fate,

for better or for worse.

Grant, I...

I love my husband.

But where are you going?

I need some air.

HI.

Hola.

Were you leaving?

Already.

Listen, I'm...

In reality I was a secret too for Skeet.

He didn't want anyone to see me.

But now I think I want it that people see me with you.

I... Well, I'm not good at this stuff.

Do you want to go to a party?

Yes.

Miss Holiday. Is fine?

Where am I? What happened?

We need to check her pancreas.

There could be a tumor.

Her body is flooded with insulin.

There's no fucking tumor.

Miss Holiday, she is lucky to be alive.

- Here you are. Keep this. - Wait,

she's still on the IV.

You take these damn tubes out of me. I have a deadline to meet.

Now I have to put my pants back on. OMG!

Wait. Let me help you.

You know why sometimes it's so hard to see

what's in front of my eyes?

Because, for years, what I saw in the mirror

she was a girl that no one loved enough not to abandon her.

I love you, Maxine.

From the first moment I saw you, I understood that you were a star.

I was the one who couldn't keep up with you.

And for 20 years,

I waited that you could notice it.

You are right. I was selfish.

I should have told you about Pinky.

I was trying to do the right thing.

Oh. Well...

Douglas, you are good.

You are and I love you,

and you are everything to me.

I need you to know.

Is there anything else you haven't told me?

I didn't sell our house.

Seriously?

Oh, thank goodness.

You're the only one who could do it.

You are Norma's guardian.

I can't do anything without you.

Let's not talk about it tonight, okay?

We'll talk about it again tomorrow.

What is that?

This is something I should have given you in Chattanooga 20 years ago.

Oh, Douglas.

Here is my queen.

She is beautiful. Oh, Douglas.

Guests will arrive soon.

I love you, Maxine.

Hello, Robert.

Norma, you're up.

Do not tell anyone.

I have something very special in mind for tonight's dance.

What do you have in mind?

In due time, my dear.

In due time.
