[Jay] I promise it willbe very, very quiet.

[snoring]

[laughs]

How can drivingmake you so tired?

Do you still think allof this was a good idea?

I refuse to have thisconversation again.

It is too late.I'm too tired.

I'm sorry, you are right.

Could you really have keptliving in that building?

No, I guess not.

-Hey.-Hey.

This is for the best, Lil.

Yes, it's for the best.

We hit the freaking jackpot.This house is ridiculous.

Why would anyone justboard it up and let it go?

I didn't even know it existeduntil mom offered it up.

Everyone can have theirown room, have two if they want.

Shh!You know he hates itwhen we talk about that.

You said so yourselfhe's out cold.

I really think he's goingto rise to the occasionof being a big brother.

Fingers crossed.

Like I still dream fora bathroom. Get ready for bed.

I'm so tired.I don't want to get up.

I had to stop every 20 minutesfor you to pee, and now nothing.

-I got it all out.-Fine.

I didn't want to get up anyway.What in the hell is that?

Shh![boom]

Whoa!

[Lillian] I don't know,

[struggling sound]

[brother]I'll protect you.

Childish philistines.

Clean it, the damnthing's disgusting.

[doorbell rings]

[rolling furniture]

That's worth morethan you are!

[Pa] Oh, cry Minnie.Get up off the floor!

[Pa] I said get up!

[Pa] Get off the floor!

Nor...

to clean this up.

Out of here.

-Scram!-Yes, sir.

[door opens]

There she is!

[laughter] Arthur, you scaredme. I thought you wouldstill be in bed.

No rest for the wicked.

-You want some help with those?-No, no. It's a surprise.

-You don't have to do that.-Oh, it seems only fairsince it's hububles for me.

-You know Kilroy out therelooks a mess.-I'll take care of it.

[Arthur] Prey tell are yougoing to take that down?

[loud rumbling sound]

[laughing]

-No! Be careful. No.-[Arthur laughs]

[Arthur] I think you wantsome of this.

Poor old boy hasseen better days.

Deer season iscoming up soon.

Gordon is really excited togo with you all this year.

I might pass up onthat this time around.

So, what's beencooking with you?

Oh, nothing.

Better grab that chair, girl.Come on, don't give me nothing.

I've been busytaking care of the house.

-Any boys I got to go beat up?-No, of course, not.

-So, no parties,no dates, not even dances?-Dances?

Do you even knowhow to dance?

That's it.

-Get up.-What?

-Come on.-What?

-I'm going to teach you.-Do you know how to dance?

Single-handedly taught Jitterbugto every single girl overseas.

-I have becomequite the shin-cracker.-I don't believe it.

-You better believe it.-Stop.

-I'm coming to steal you.-[Gordon] Daddy wanted me toclean up the living room.

Whoa, what the hell happened?

You all right? I'd hate tosee the other guy, huh.

Shame as always.

You see Mary is crying,and the other one istrying to suck his dick.

-Robert...-Oh, you've heard worse.

Arthur, thank you for your help.Could you put that back?

I have to start dinner.

-Have you seen this?-Holy shit.

That looks amazing.What did you do?

-I put his drink on the radio.-Well, the thing isworth more than you are.

The damn thingdoesn't even work.

Dad tripped over it onenight and the back fell out.

-I think we shouldget him to the doc.-No, no, no, no.

He'll be fine. Do him some goodto ride this one out.

Put a little hairon that chest.

Fine. Just go get a steakon that eye.

Help me get thisback on the wall.

-[Jay] He is on a time-out!-[Lillian] What did he do?

I'm trying to get him to startunpacking in his room.You know what your son did?

-What?-Your son told me to fuck off!

That's it? Jesus Christ, youalmost gave me a heart attack.

-Really?-Oh, come on. I justexpected worse than a fuck off.

Fair enough.

Can we address this now?

[chuckles] By all means.

Why did your momtake that and all hislittle friends out of storage?

I think she justhad them delivereverything from storage.

-How did it end up on a wall?-Elves?

-Cute.-I have no fucking idea.

Maybe the movers thought theywere doing us a favor

or maybe they were tryingto make up for the fact

that none of theboxes are labeled?

[Jay] What?

Nothing is labeled.

So, I cannot tellwhat is shit from storage

and what is our shitfrom the apartment.

So, we are now stuckgoing through everything.

-[Jay] Shit.-Shit is right.

God!

Were they butchers?

-Were they what?-Butchers, your family.

Not that I'm aware of,

but I don't reallyknow that much about

my father sideor anything at all, really.

-I was named aftersomebody in the family.-You know about uncle Robert.

Great uncle Robert.

I know, we foundthat out by accident

when they did thatbackground check

for that snooty school.

What was he in jail for?

No idea.I was always curious about that.

[Jay] There's got to be someonein your family you can ask.

They're all dead.

[Jay] Dead men tell no tales.

What in the heck?

There is like five boxes herefilled with journalsand photo albums.

Bound to find somethingin all this mess.

You know what, this feels likean invasion of privacy.

They're dead, we're living.

They pretty much waived theirright to privacy at this point.

-I don't thinkthat's how it works.-Don't be such a wuss.

Fine. I will dip a toe in.

That looks official.

It's a life insurance policyfrom like 1880s.

Someone works in the big barks.

Hey, have you got any thoughtas to how we should handle

the whole school situation?

Well, the school year'salready startedso that limits things.

I think we have to gowith Springwood Hills.

What about thatprivate school?

They will check referencesand contact his last school,so, no.

-Okay. Well, what about...-He requires too much attention,

-Just send him to public school.-We can always...

-And homeschooling isno longer an option.-We could give it one more try.

We?

This is hard enough already,please don't make it worse.

You're right.Sorry.

-Just hate those places.-It's not one of those places.

We're going to startrunning out of options.

Hey.

[noise upstairs]

Not it.

Yes.

[sighs]

[boom]

What are you looking at?

Creepy mother...

[chattering]

Shh!

[clears throat]

It's with great pleasurethat I welcome you all here

to help us celebrate theengagement of Miss Mildred Moyer

-to my son William Jr.-Cheers.

Thank you for coming to sharethis momentous occasion with us.

It means so much toLillian and myself.

We're deeply saddenedthat Mildred's family

were unable to come intotown on such short notice,

but the Moyers send they theirregards and have generouslyprovided us

with some provisions.

They didn't realizeI always bring my own.

[laughter]

And a little bit better.

[Guests]Cheers!

I only wish mother was aliveto share this with us.

See, we're all grown up.Such a fine young man.

To the late,great Lady Anna.

To Lady Anna.

I realize I've beenbeating my gums plenty.

You sure have.[laughter]

I want to end by thankingmy enchanting wife, Lillian.

I've been stuck on yousince the moment we met.

You stood by me through thickand thin, you've beenmy rock, my heart.

The only woman in this worldI can say is truly my own.

To Mildred and William Jr.May you always have food onthe table, wine in your glass

and a baby on the way!

[everyone]To Mildred and William Jr.!

Now, enough of thissentimental mumbo jumbo.

Let's haul those crates ofbubbly out to the backand light the bonfire

and drink ourselves blind.

Lillian, my love, come.

Look at this place here.Your friends are a bunchof wild animals.

Let the girl get that now.Come on.

You gave her the night off,don't you remember?

I'm just going topick up a little.

Why don't you go outthere and entertain?

Show them those new lightsyou just put up, huh?

[heartbeats]

-Baby, you look goodfrom every angle.-Didn't anybody miss you?

They're all so drunk, theywouldn't notice if I hadn'tshowed up to begin with.

I wasn't sure if youhad gotten my note.

I know. [laughs]

It was all consuming,the way the plans have been.

I just couldn't miss theopportunity to stealsome time away with you.

I sleep just down the hall.

You can steal me anytime.

Please don't joke.

[glass breaks]

[woman from distance] Some dumb door broke a glass.

[voice next door] Lillian. Lillian.

[voice next door] Where are you, Lillian?

The only woman in this worldI can say is truly my own.

What an ass.

[20-ies dance music playing]

[tying rope]

[Lilly] I'm sorry thatit took so long.

Minnie? Minnie?

[Minnie] Sixteen.

[Lillian screams]

-I guess he didn't like the box.-[Jay] No, I guess not.

So, besides fearingwoodland creatures,what are you doing down here?

[Jay] I don't know.Just reading.

-[Jay] Didn't wantto keep you up.-Is the washer running?

You are related to somegnarly motherfuckers.

So far, I count a bootlegginggangster and a con artistposing as a medium.

Man, did I pick the wrong box.

All I got is a bunch of ledgers.

I guess this usedto be a boarding houseabout 100 years ago.

Say, back then would people

pay with their gold teeth?

-Like, was that a thing?-What?

Yes, there's just a lotof entries for gold teeth.

I have no idea.I guess it's possible.

[laughs] I know itjust seemed weird.

-Sure.-I found one on Robert.

I found the phone number forhis lawyer in California.

Why is the washer running?

There's a load.I was going to be up,I figured I'd toss it in.

Since when do you do laundry?

Baby, go back to bed.

He wet the bed again,didn't he?

Didn't want you to worry.

Jesus Christ, did you changehis PJs and put onfresh sheets?

-Yes, of course I did.-This isn't good, Jay.

-Kid wet the bed, Lil.-Goddamn!You know what I'm talking about.

-It doesn't have to be a warningsign of some bigger issue.

-I knew moving himwas a mistake.-Lil, you have to stop making

-everything such a big deal.-Maybe if you met me halfway

with some measure of concern,I wouldn't feel the need...

-to react so strongly.-It's head would explode!

[washer buzzer rings]

You don't see it, do you?You honestly don't see.

Oh, I see it.Just not the way you do.

We have a kid

who wears a Halloween maskpractically every day.

A kid who is on moremedication than most adults.

A kid who can go weekswithout talking orcommunication of any kind.

We have a kid

who almost burnt down anentire apartment building,

knowing thathis mother was inside.

[chuckles] I can'tbelieve you would say that.

He would never, in amillion years, hurt you.

Yes, he has a ton of behavioralproblems, I know that.I'm not blind.

But he is completely incapableof ever hurting anybody.

We are not going to havethe upper hand much longer.

-We can't affordto miss anything.-We won't!

[floor creaking]

[crashing sound]

[Pa] Sit!

You know, pa'sdisappointed in brother.

Our Mister Louis was not due totravel for another week yet.

-I---Do not speak!

God gave men dominionover all animals.

Therefore, we shouldnot behave like animals.

You can go.

Are we prepared forour Mr. Sweetak?

-Speak.-Yes, sir.

-Brother shall bethe good boy tonight.-Yes, sir, good boy.

-Now, send in our Anna.-Yes.

-Do you approve, papa?-I do.

Lovely Anna.

Let me, look at you.You seem very well.

As do you, my dear.

-And thisstrapping young man is?-You know Frank.

-Frank shakeMr. Pomeroy's hand.-Yes, I remember Frank.

I remember Frank verywell. Come on, boy,

when you shake a man's hand,

you've got to have a bitof the devil in your grip.

Frank dear, why don't you gocheck on the chickens?

-We don't have any chickens.-[laughs]

Where are my manners?Please.

-Drink?-No, thank you.

-Well, I hope youdon't mind if---By all means.

Are you nothappy to see me?

Whatever could you mean?

I just did not expectto see you until spring.

I have businesshere in town.

What brings youto my doorstep, dear Pomeroy?

You.

-You seem to be doing very well.-Back to your visit.

I, the ever weary traveler,I'm simply in searchof a place to lay my head.

This is not beena boarding housein some time now, Palm.

I know dear, Lady Anna.

Such an astonishingmetamorphosis.

Will you be with usfor a while?

And with your familyall dead and gone...

Will you be with usfor a while, Pomeroy?

Such a terrible fire.

I said, will yoube with us for a while?

If you will have me.

But I do not think you arein any position to say no.

[crashing sounds]

[sighs]

Isn't this onethe man of the house?

Is the devil inhim, all right?

Leave the boy alone, Palm.

He doesn't understandgrownup business.

Isn't that right, William?

Come, let us talk somewherewe shan't be disturbed.

[boom]

I've never caredfor that man.

Nor have I.

But I do not thinkhe will be a problem.

He already is.

Boys, Mr. Pomeroy will bestaying here for a while.

But we do notlike Mr. Pomeroy.

-We did not likeMr. Pomeroy in the least.-Well, it's too damn bad.

-What was that, mother?-I said that's too damn bad!

-Yes, mother.-Yes, mother.

[mother] Now you will be goodboys, and you'll be niceto Mr. Pomeroy.

Do whatever he asks of you.He's our guest.

-Yes, mother.-Yes, mother.

Now finish the preparationsfor the next appointment.

Oh, did you feed her?

-Meaning.-I know I did.

Yes.I fed many.

Good.Thank you, boys.

I simply don't know whatI would do without you twoto take care of--

[crashing sound]

[glass breaking]

[dance music]

-Go to your room!-Go to your room.

-Robert?-I'm not missing this.

[father] Look at you.So protective.

You left her here!

Norma barely leaves this housebecause she's trapped heretaking care of you.

She wouldn't have toif my wife was still here!

-That isn't Norma's fault.-No! It's not her fault!It's yours.

I know what I want.I want a stake, still bloody.

[door closes]

You can always cook up the onethat Gordon used for us.

[car engine starts]

It's not dad this time.Now, let's stay on.

-[Norma] Is he gone?-[Gordon] Yes, Norma!

And I think I saved dinner.

Dad's got a touch ofa bee in his bonnet.

He would have made itthrough and stayed.

This is ridiculous.I mean, I'd go after him.

-No, that's not a good idea.-It's not a good idea.

-I'm going to go look for dad.-[Arthur] I'll go.

Must have headed offto the usual spots?

-Yes, but dad's right.-I'm going with you.

-Norma, please.-I said, I'm going.

Guess that's settled.

I'll take the car throughto the high street.

Are, you kids heading south?

-[Gordon] Wait, what do I do?-[Arthur] Stay here.We will be back soon.

[mouse screams]

[boom]

[Jay] Pretty garden, overgrown.

Baby, what are you doing downhere? You should be in bed.

He is upstairs.

You going to have to talkto him at some point.

-Did you lock it up?-Why?

Babe, I'm just grabbing a beer,I'll be back upin a few seconds.

-It only takes a few seconds.-It really don't--

-I found thison his bedside table.-I've been looking for that.

-Oh, have you?-I gotta go and ask him to move.

Please lock up the mowerand the gasoline in the shed.

[Jay] Lillian, yousaid he's upstairs. I'm goingto be right back outside.

-Do you need anything from---No.

[Jay] Sweetie, I can onlyimagine what you're feelingright now.

[Jay] But it was--

[Jay] It was so early on,and you know thattime window always touch and go.

-We can always try again.-What?

-I don't mean right away.-Are you fucking kidding me?

-Like in a year or so.-If I were you,

I would go back outsideand I'd finish the yard.

-Lillian---And take your son with you.

Get out of my houseand give me some space.

[Jay] He left a toy on thestairs. It was an accident.-[Lillian] Right.

I'm so sorry for what happened,

-but you can't keep blaming him.-You know what?

-It's probablyfor the best, anyway.-Don't say that.

[Lillian] No, I mean it.It's probably for the best.

[metal squeaking, loud boom]

No one pays withtheir gold teeth.

Not alone all their clothesand all their shoes.

I don't understand.

[rumbling sound]

Remember that bootlegginggangster? In allthe newspaper clippings

I've foundthey say he died in an accident

during an engagement party.

That's not true.

He strangled his sisterand then hung himself

in front of his wife and child.

What am I looking at?

That's a life insurancepolicy I found.

Who is this solebeneficiary listed?

[Jay]Anna Marie Dubois Hofheinz.

I've foundan article about Lady Anna.

It tells the story abouthow her father, brother,and mother all died

in a fire in a barn thatused to be on the property,

and she was the only onewho survived.

-Want to know whyRobert was in prison?-Not particularly.

He was convicted on seven countsof homicide in California.

He claimed there were more,but only seven bodieswere ever found.

All women, except for one.

-His brother Gordonwas the lucky fella.-Jesus Christ.

This is what I come from, Jay.

And it explainsa whole hell of a lot.

So, as I said,it's probably for the best.

[Jay] You're scaringthe shit out of me right now.

[chuckles]I am pretty scared, too.

Past few weekshave been too much.

I'm so sorry.

You know this isn't you.

I found a dead mousein the living room.[screams]

I know what you're thinking,I thought it too.

That darn cat, but...

It wasn't bitten or clawed.

It was squished.

Like it was squishedbetween two small hands.

What are you saying?

I don't know.

[Nicholas] Daddy!

I'll be right back.

[Robert laughs]

[moaning]

[laughing]

[Gordon] Did you find...?

-[laughs]-Oh, I am sorry.

No, no, no, no, stay.

You might learn a thing or two.

Please get her upstairsbefore dad gets home.

Why?Is he going to call dibs?

Robert. Robert,Robert, Robert, Robert, Robert,Robert, Robert, Robert.

Okay!

Fine!

Hey, Peggy.

Do you know

that I haveHitler's pinkie in a jar?

[laughing]

It's just upstairs.

-[laughs] It's Betty.-Yes, I bet it is.

Hey! No, No!

[laughs]

Please!Please!

Huh, huh.

[breathing heavy]

Aw, stop, you're crying.

She's fine.

Come on, Gordon.

Beggars can't be choosers.[giggles]

She's not breathing, Bert.

[snapping]

Damn.

I didn't want to be right.

-Get her feet.-No!

Hey, none of thiswould have happened

if you hadn't tried tomake us go upstairs.

[creaking outside]

I mean, you don't want mamato see this, do you?

Now, we don'thave a lot of time.

So, get her feet!

[dance music]

[Norma] Daddy!

Gordy!

Bert!

-[Robert] Hey, didyou find the old man?-No.

I guess you didn'thave any luck either.

No, but--I did miss a few spots.

Are you drunk?

[Robert] What? No.

-Where did you stop?-Around Dell.

You should probablyget back out there.

Get back out there?You get back out there.

Look, I say screw the old man.We got dinnerwarming in the oven.

-What is that?-What do you mean?

-What did you do?-Whose purse is this?

Robert,what did you fucking do?

It wasan accident, right, Gordy?

It was an accident.

He can sleep it off in the car.

Who else could take care of him?

He's a mean drunkwho's going tochew you up and spit you out.

It's the same thing.

a bit sooner than expected.

the job of entertainingbefore dinner.

Oh, I believe she has morethan one gift, Mr. Hofheinz.

Would you be interestedin trying to contactsomeone in the beyond?

[laughs]I'm sorry, Mr. Hofheinz,

but I will admit I don't puttoo much stock in such things.

Oh, dear Anna don't nowbe rude to Mr. Sweetak.

Of course,I wouldn't mind a littledemonstration, dear Anna.

[giggles]

Now, who shall we summon?

Ah, shall we try to contactMr. Louis' dear mother?

-Sorry?-Shall we try Mr. Louis' mom?

Since shehas not yet crossed over
