All language subtitles for Lucky Hank s01e06 The Arrival.eng

[Hank thinking]
Hey, Dad, welcome to Railton.

Just a couple questions.

How come you didn't come
to my wedding?

Or want to meet
your only grandchild?

Or how could you abandon me

when I had a rope
around my neck?

That's it,
just those questions.

Feel free to write
your answers on a postcard

and mail it to me.

Then we can go back
to avoiding each other.

[imperceptible]

[car engine turns over]

[theme music playing]

[grunts]

[shower running]

I'm coming in!

- [Julie shouts] Dad! Get out!
- [gasps]

Hmm...

I almost took a shower
with our daughter.

[Lily] Yeah,
she came in the night.

She slept upstairs
in her old room.

What's that about?

[Lily] Mmm...

She didn't want to say,
she wanted to sleep.

If we turned her room
into a gym,

this wouldn't happen.

Or she'd get into great shape.

- Bright side.
- Mmm.

[clears throat]

- I saw my father on Tuesday.
- What?

I was in my car.
I just wanted to get a glimpse.

There he was.

What did he say?
Or just how... did it go?

We didn't talk.

I don't want to be lied to,

and I only want to know
he's here because he's old,

unemployed, and wants
to be taken care of.

- That's understandable.
- I'm going for a run.

- Great.
- That's... important.

Oh, it's my mom.

Oh, yeah,
she's been calling me.

You too?

- Did you talk to her?
- No, no, I wouldn't know what to say to her.

Why haven't you
answered my calls?

Because my, um,
caller ID works.

You hurt your father
very badly, you know.

He played me
the message you left.

Oh, he's keeping my messages.

What message?

[Hank] Oh, I didn't tell you,
I left a message for my dad.

I told him he's not welcome
here in Railton.

It was a cruel thing to say.

It stung him very badly.

It was so over the line,

Henry says he's leaving
after the weekend.

He says he's going
to North Carolina.

North Carolina?
What's in North Carolina?

Oh, [snaps fingers]

a graduate student
that he hasn't seduced yet.

- Gruen.
- What's that, the monster from Beowulf?

[Laurel] His second wife.

[sighs]

It would be
a terrible situation for him,

living out the last of his days

in a place
he has no connection to,

far from any family...

and the monster's Grendel.

[Hank] Well, you tell him
to have a nice trip,

and the monster
is Grendel's mom.

Hank!

This is something
that's very important to me.

He'll leave for good

if you don't come by
and ask him to stay.

[quietly]
I'm not going to do that.

I'm asking you.

Hank isn't available
this weekend.

He has a conference.

Is that true?

It's true I've been invited
to a conference,

in Harrisburg.

Oh, you can skip that.

You have a choice to make

between your father

and an insignificant
regional conference.

It's good for guys
to have a thing.

This conference
is kind of our thing.

[chuckles]

And the one year
you decided to pull out

is the one year I'm presenting.

I was beginning
to take it personally.

[Hank sighs]
Yeah, I've had a lot going on, you know.

Oh, sure, sure, sure.

It's just that you decided
not to come weeks ago,

like the minute you saw
the program

with my name and photo
prominently displayed on it.

- I did?
- Mmm-hmm.

I think we have
a different definition of "prominent".

It's page three.
Page three is the best.

Phew...

- I got two other pages
that will knock your socks off. - [chuckles]

Let's go.

I hope I don't meet anyone
from last year.

- You probably won't.
- Or the year before.

Uh, Rosencrantz
and Senor Guildenstern, please.

How many times
have you heard that today?

Beats the Nietzsche brothers.

No, it does not.

Devereaux and Conigula.

[Tony] Go right to page three?

[inhaling sharply]
Whoa, whoa.

I did not know Gracie
was going to be here.

Quick, hand me
my fake mustache.

You've got a beard.

Right. So,
my Austin Powers teeth.

- You're too kind.
- [Hank] Look at her, holding court.

Wait till they find out
she's an idiot.

That Atlantic poem
was a total fluke.

It was one of those
infinite monkey things?

Infinite monkey? No.

Twenty monkeys,

and they can take breaks,
and they need one typewriter.

They'll poop out that poem
in 10 minutes.

- [chuckles] Come on.
- No, no, drinks first. Come on.

[woman] I can't believe

that was just your first poem
published in The Atlantic.

- Wonderful.
- And such specificity.

Do you write with a pen
or a scalpel?

- [laughing]
- Oh, please.

You all honor me, truly.

Honestly, I don't know
what comes next.

I'm just trying
to slurp the marrow from the present moment.

- Poet laureate, 5:00.
- [woman] Dr. Grillo!

What?

Ms. DuBois,
when I read your poem in The Atlantic,

I revisited
your book of sonnets.

- I've added it to the syllabus
for my spring seminar. - Oh.

I'm collecting selected poems

for an anthology
of contemporary poets

re-imagining traditional forms.

I would love to include
a villanelle of yours.

Let's get a drink later.

I would love that.
I would...

[gasps]

I do remember you, yes.

You had a hat
with a feather in it,

and the feather blew off

and landed
in a lady's drink, right?

Uh, that was you.

Well, I prefer to be
remembered for my work...

- Well...
- ...but I'll take it.

Hank's a novelist,
so it's his job to be kind of a dick.

Ah.

[Tony] When do you present?

[man] Tomorrow afternoon.

I have a paper on Ecophilosophy
in a Post-Roe World.

- How about you, Hank?
- [imperceptible]

Are you presenting?

- I don't know.
- You don't know if you're presenting?

[Tony] So you were saying
about Appiah's piece in the Times last Sunday?

[man] Absolute rubbish.

This widower wrote in

- to ask if it would be ethical
to read his deceased... - Sorry.

...and asked him
specifically not to do.

Uh, gin martini,
extra olives, please.

Thank you.

- [Tony] That would be
a mistake. - What?

That woman
you followed in here.

"Anna Howard, professor
of comparative literature,

University of Michigan."

However tempting,
a dalliance for a dalliance is not an ethically-sound idea.

I shouldn't be here.

You're my biggest fan.
I'm on page three.

I'm afraid I'm going to do
something stupid.

Let me get you a drink.

After that, get a massage,
take a schvitz.

Do any stupid thing you want,

except boink her,

'cause you'd regret it.

[sighs]

[Hank thinking]
When am I going to learn

that hotel rooms
aren't fun anymore?

I mean, when you're young,
they're full of potential,

an exotic alternative
to your own crappy bedroom,

and clean sheets, too,

but at some point,

you just start thinking

about all the losers
who stayed here before you.

Oh, that's sad.

All the losers,

hoping beyond hope

to meet someone
in the hotel bar and get laid.

[Lily] Hey!

- Do you need a hand?
- Hi, yeah.

Can you put this
in the very front.

Are you finally
moving your stuff out?

Mom, how many times
are we going to talk about this?

Is it such an inconvenience
for me to keep, like,

a little bit of my stuff
at your house?

[Lily] I thought you liked
having this conversation.

I thought that's why
you kept your things here

even though you have
your own big storage space.

Trunk.

Are you going somewhere?

Yeah, Russell and I
had a fight,

so I'm going to take you up
on that offer.

What offer?

I'm going to come
stay with you in New York.

Okay, let's just, um...

Let's just back this up.

How bad a fight was this?

That's none of your business.

Julie!

- Mom.
- You are married.

You cannot just run away

from the first big fight
you guys have.

[laughs ruefully]
First big fight.

Mom, Russell
literally is like...

Mom!

Russell is just...

he's pissing me off,

and this is...
Honestly, this is all Dad's fault.

How so?

Because he got him that job,
and it destroyed us.

It just destroyed us.

Like, I honestly don't think
we've had sex

more than, like, ten times
in the last month.

- [dryly] Oh, yeah?
- Yes,

and he's not masturbating
like he used to,

so he's totally cheating on me.

Julie.

Honey, do you...
Do you really think so?

- I mean...
- Yes.

[Tony] Hello?

Hank?

I hear the sounds
of a party down the hall.

Female voices.

[Tony] What time is it?

[Hank] Are you already in bed?
[chuckles awkwardly]

Yeah. My presentation
is in the morning.

You're coming, right?

Of course.

It's hours away.

I mean, come on,
I really need a distraction.

["Freheit Ist Nicht Umsonst"
by Up With People playing]

[man singing in German]

Ooh, what are the specials?

We have vodka and soda,

and...

soda with vodka in it.

Oh, that's a tough choice.

I'd say soda with vodka?

I'm going to look for
some of those female voices.

Cheers.

[people chattering
indistinctly]

[Hank thinking]
Hard to believe,

but these are some of
the most above-average minds in academia.

Why are they here?

Will they change the world?

Not unless being published
in an academic journal

read by 40 people

is earth-shattering.

No, these people
are in a fierce competition.

I don't know.

A provocative thesis
is one thing,

but Marjorie DeCampos
is going to be there.

- [woman] From Emory?
- Yes.

They're battling to see
who can stick their heads

furthest up their own
butt holes.

Ah, maybe I can help.

Make sure you have a printout.

Why?

Uh, the virus.

What virus?

- You guys don't know?
- No.

Oh. [chuckles]

There's a computer virus
being spread by the hotel WiFi.

Oh, no.

Some hacker from outside
infected the whole system.

- When?
- Like an hour ago.

- Oh, my God!
- They've got an IT team from Zurich is working on it,

but I lost work
from the last four years,

so... effing nightmare.

I'm so sorry.

It probably
won't affect you guys

- because it only activates
if you use certain programs. - Oh.

- Word, or Google Docs...
- Oh, that's fine.

...or, um...
[snapping fingers] PowerPoint, and Keynote.

Oh, my God!

- What?
- Yeesh!

- That's everything.
- I'll tell you what,

it'll destroy your hard drive.
Good luck.

- Oh, no, no.
- My presentation is in Keynote.

Yeah, but mine is tomorrow.
I have two!

I have two presentations.

[woman 1 on TV]
I have to operate my happy family of clothing.

[woman 2] Because it's
a charity rummage sale.

[woman 1] I know!

[woman 2]
That you helped organize!

This is the best.

This could be
every night in New York.

Hmm.

There's lots of stuff to do
in New York at night.

Yeah, but
what's better than this?

[woman 2]
Okay, get out of the way.

[woman 1] What are you doing?

[woman 2] Get away
from the closet, please.

[Hank] I see you bought
your own coffee.

Smart move.

They're feeding us
battery acid over here.

Hank.

Anna.

You're, uh,
one of the panelists, right?

You're the Bronte scholar?

- That's right.
- Where did you study?

Northwestern.

Grad school?

Columbia.

See, I think we have
someone in common.

- Mmm.
- Henry Devereaux?

Henry?

Of course.

Yeah, he was my thesis advisor.

He was a real mentor to me.

Just a mentor?

So, did you study under him
as well, or...

No, but I know you did.

I'm his son.

[sighs]

Do you want something from me?

Not really.

Well, that's not true.

[inhales]

Did he ever mention

that he had a son
around your age?

[Anna] I knew
you existed, yeah.

Did he express any affection,

or have any fond memories?

It's hard to remember.

How about for you?

Do you feel like
he cared about you?

Do you think he's capable...

of caring?

You should talk to him.

He's a...

He's a good man.

Is he?

her brachyology,

wielding rhetorical devices,

syllepsis and apokoinou

to challenge you on that, Fran--

Why is it that we...

How can someone not be self-aware enough

I mean, if your gut
doesn't tell you this,

there's a lot of clues.

Just look around.

There's 700 channels on TV,

and not a single one of them
is devoted to poetry.

And you've accomplished

the greatest achievement
of your career,

and seven people
showed up for...

whatever this is.

No. No...

No, I don't want to hear it.

Yeah, well, then,
you shouldn't have stayed out late every night for a month.

That's not someone
wanting to be with me.

How long does it take
to put up chairs?

There's, like, 30 chairs,

and it takes
five seconds a chair.

That doesn't add up, Russell!

That's just math!

Okay, I'm just
going to say something

- that you don't want to hear.
- [sighs]

Is it possible that he's just
actually working late?

Yeah, but it's
"why is he working late?"

It's because he took a job
to be away from me,

just like you're taking a job
to be away from Dad.

That is not...

That...

That is not
why I took this job.

Oh, come on, it's me.

Yes, I know
who I'm talking to.

Okay, calm down.

- You guys are just
going through something. - I get it.

- No, you don't.
- Okay, so you and Dad are just perfect then?

No. No, Julie,
there are little things,

but they're little things,

and then when
there's a bigger thing,

then we work it out.

Okay, so that's
what you want from me?

- Yeah.
- You want me to work it out with Russell

and stay with him,
and then in, like, 25 years,

leave him in a cloud of denial?

[gasps] Oh!

Oh, my God.
Get in the car.

We are going
to talk to Russell.

No, we're not doing that.
We're staying here. I want to finish the game.

[firmly] Get in the car.

No!

[tiles clattering]

That was super mature.

[pinball bells dinging]

[Hank] Come on!

You got it! That's it!

[dinging]

Aw!

[text notification buzzes]

A little early, no?

It was a disaster.

- What was?
- What was? My talk was.

I'm almost glad
you weren't there.

It doesn't matter.

I just, I don't even
know where to start.

Can I get the same thing?

Um... [clears throat]

start in the middle?

I missed a key paper
last year.

Everything I was saying
about the neuroscience of moral judgment

was apparently made irrelevant

in the third quarter of
the Journal of Neuroscience,

which, in hindsight,

may have been
a pretty good thing for me to have been reading.

Well, let's...

Let's qualify relevance here.
Relevant to who?

I mean, how many people
showed up at this thing?

What does that matter?
It was my research.

I'm just trying to put it
in perspective, right?

It's not like you lost
a patient on the table.

[sighs] The whole thing
was extra embarrassing

because I couldn't even
access my notes.

There was a virus
on the hotel WiFi.

[snorts with laughter]

I heard that was a hoax.

Oh, God...

Go on.

There's nothing
to go on about.

It was a nightmare.

I can never come back here.

I think you're wallowing.

It wasn't that important
to you yesterday,

or the day before.

I think you're sinking
into your feelings--

Of course it was important
to me yesterday.

This has been my work
for the last three years.

Your work
for the last three years was getting laid

and cheating at racquetball.

I was there, I saw it.
Not the sex.

Dude! If that's
what you saw,

you weren't there at all.

Are we... Are we having
a real argument right now?

Because this...

This isn't supposed to matter,

this academic
circle-jerk-a-thon we come to every year.

I mean,
making fun of these guys

has been one of
the foundational pastimes of our friendship.

No, it's not.

We make fun of them
for their haircuts.

We don't make fun of them
for caring.

I did, a little.

I see that now.

I don't get why.

You've checked out of academia.

You've checked out of writing.

You've detached yourself

from pretty much
everything you care about.

Every year,
you care about less,

and you're more depressed.

I just don't see why.

There's other things
to care about than work.

I got a wife and a kid.

I know that hasn't
worked out for you. I'm sorry,

but it's damn important to me,

so...

Things didn't seem so rosy

the other night
at your dinner party.

[clears throat]

This is going to be great.

You're acting like
we're on a reality show.

[clears throat]

My break ends in 10 minutes.

Thank you so much
for sitting down with us.

You're so welcome.

I'm always willing to sit down
and talk things through.

- [Julie] Yeah, for 10 minutes.
- I don't make the bar schedule, okay?

Mr. Travis,
he makes the bar schedule.

- The point is I've never seen--
- I've told you so many times--

Take a breath!

Take a breath,
'cause we can't get anywhere if we're hot-headed.

I agree.

Do you think you can use
your calm-down techniques for every situation?

Is this what you do with Dad?
Because I'm beginning to see your fight

from his point of view.

What fight?
We are not having a fight.

Uh, I mean,
to be honest, Mrs. D,

from the outside perspective,

it kind of seems like
something's going on.

No, absolutely not.

Then why you are kissing
other men at bars?

What?

I'll tell you about it later.

How do you know--

Okay, I'm sorry,
he called me the other day and told me

when he was in, like,
that crazy panic.

[Russell] Who did you kiss?

Okay, look, your father
is experiencing mental anguish

from childhood trauma,
so it actually has nothing to do with me.

Oh, my God, that's, like,
very serious.

[Russell] Well, is he
seeing a psychiatrist?

No.

- Well, he definitely should be.
- Yeah.

Actually, there's this guy
that comes into the bar,

and he's a therapist,

but he sees a psychiatrist,
like, for his own problems, right?

- He says it's awesome.
I can get you his card. - No, thank you.

Can we stop comparing
whatever this is to my marriage?

- Again--
- That's so unfair.

Mrs. D, I feel like
you're the one

who's kind of
not seeing things clearly here.

I support Julie, way more
than Hank supports you.

Oh, really?
How so?

I would go to New York
if Julie wanted me to.

- If you asked me to,
I would go. - Really?

Yeah, of course.

- That's very nice. Thank you.
- Of course, I'd go.

So then, why are you
cheating on her, big shot?

- Mom!
- Whoa! I'm not.

Julie thinks otherwise.

- What? I'm so not!
- No, I don't!

- I am so not!
- I know! I believe you!

What?

- I've told her that!
- That's the reason--

Then why aren't you
masturbating as much, huh?

- Whoa! Okay, hang on!
- Tell me that!

- Mom!
- You brought it up!

You can't say that to him!

[Lily] You brought it up
at the house!

- I'm so not!
- I didn't bring that--

Why did you
bring that up to her?

You're masturbating
the same amount.

Why would I ever bring that up?

You are a traitor!

You need therapy, too!

You need--
For real, you need help.

You do need therapy.
You should go to--

[together]
Couples counseling! Yes!

You guys deserve each other.
I think this went really beautifully.

Sit down,
let's keep talking about that.

[Lily] We managed to do that
with eight minutes to spare!

- Good luck.
- Where are you going?

- Don't leave.
- You drove me here!

I would go to New York
with you.

- Would you really?
- Yeah, of course.

[chattering indistinctly]

Give me a moment.

If I'm there
more than 30 seconds,

then just say
we're due somewhere.

Hank.

Thank you for briefly
stopping by my panel.

For a moment, I thought
you were there to heckle.

Heckle?

I'm sorry.

- Uh...
- What?

Well, the turnout, you know.

- I mean--
- Oh.

...it's tough
when the panelists outnumber the audience.

- We've all been there.
- No, not at all.

We ran with it,

and we turned the event
into a workshop.

It was...

It was the most invigorating
conversation I've had in a long time.

I don't know if I'm just
coming into my own,

or the world
is catching up to me,

but I want to wear a T-shirt

that says, "I've been...

here

the whole time!"

- Maybe I'd use
a different meter. - [Fran] Yoo-hoo.

[chuckles]

See you back at the playground.

Congrats on The Atlantic.

So, how did it go?

Is Julie still here?

They have got issues.

Well, I knew that,
but did she go home?

She's not here, is she?

You know what?

It's their marriage,
and it has nothing to do with ours.

- Who said it did?
- Nobody,

and I just think

that I'm going
to stay out of it.

You know,
I think this generation,

they don't...

They see marriage
like it's this game

where you just say anything
and you do whatever you want,

and you're really super
"over share-y"

about every single
stupid feeling,

and all of that

is just supposed to, like,

fit together
into a relationship.

I don't know what I'm saying,

except that thank God,
that's not our marriage.

Yeah, okay.

Do you know what I mean?

Yeah.

You ever feel like
you're right next to your life?

I feel like

I'm watching this guy
who looks like me,

and he's doing all this stuff,

and I just want to tap him
on the shoulder and say,

"What's your problem?"

I think I want back in.

Respect.

All right, well,

you want to start
with New York?

Absolutely.

Okay, great.

Um, I've asked
for a four-day week.

As for the living arrangements,

I found a couple of places

that I think
are pretty cute, and--

I need to see my dad.

What?

I'm sorry.

I know you were talking,
and I want to hear it,

but I think
I need to see my dad before he leaves.

Eh... I don't know.

I'm going to go.

[knocking on door]

Oh.

It's good to see you.

How's retirement?

Oh, well,

it's very new
for your father, of course,

and I would say

that an academic
never truly retires.

Mom, could I just
talk to Dad alone, please?

Where exactly
am I supposed to go?

I'll make some tea.

How...

How is your research
coming along?

No.

You tell me

what was behind your decision
to move here?

Oh.

Well, I recently retired.

The city no longer
felt essential.

Okay, but why here?

I have family here.

We haven't spoken in person
in almost 25 years.

Can we just cut the bullshit
and talk like two adults?

Would you be willing
to do that?

I am willing.

Well...

I...

I'm feeling a lot of stuff
right now.

[sighs]

I've gone over
this conversation

for years in my head,

but I don't really know
where to start.

Start in the middle.

I think I might begin
by telling you

how hard it was for me

to grow up without a father.

What happened to him?

I'm talking about you
leaving your family.

When I left,
I got a job at Columbia.

After a string of fellowships,

I had the opportunity
to stay at one institution

and focus on my research.

It was too good to pass up.

Yeah, I don't give a shit
about the job.

I mean, I know
it was impressive,

but you left mom and me
for another woman.

Oh, yes.
Well, that was a difficult time--

Difficult?
Was it difficult for you?

[scoffs] I'm not
being glib here,

I actually want to know.

How exactly
was it difficult for you

when you saw a child
on the floor

with a rope around his neck.
your son...

how did that impact you?

And why was the answer to that

to cut off all contact
with your son?

Oh, you're talking about Hank?

He was a stubborn child.

Strong-willed, demanding.

He won't actually
speak to me now.

Did you know that?

I'm talking to you right now.

Yes, you are.

Milk, two sugars, right?

Dad, how did you get to town?

Did you come by car or train?

Either way, I arrived.

What day of the week is it?

Oh, my God, we both need
a new calendar.

How do you like
living in Florida?

[Henry] It's quite pleasant
here in the winter,

but...

I'll tell you,

summertime,

the humidity is terrible
for books.

[Hank] Who's the
current president?

[Henry] Can we not talk
about politics tonight?

What do you want
to talk about?

[Henry] Well, I have
a new book coming out,

and the publishers
want me to tour

up and down the East Coast.

I'm awaiting approval
from the college, of course,

and we might have to delay it

until my sabbatical comes up.

I wish you luck with that.

[Henry] Thank you.

Thank you.
I hope it all works out,

but how are things
going for you?
