How could you let that happen?

You were supposed to short it.

I don't care what
the indicators said.

Hey Bobby, can you
bring the car around?

We're gonna be ready to
go in like 10 minutes.

Well, I operate on
information, not market trends.

You know that.

- This is Pierre.
- Come on.

How may I help you?

Hello Pierre, this
is Mrs. Dutchman.

We're running about
an hour behind

so I'm gonna need to
push our reservation.

Your table will be ready
for you whenever you arrive.

Gorgeous.

It's Ok?

Absolutely gorgeous.

But...

There's something missing.

Close your eyes.

Happy 19th, baby.

Mark.

It's stunning.

Just like you.

Only the best for my girl.

I love you.
- Love you.

Let's go.

Welcome to the boom boom room.

One drink and we're out.

We can raise
whatever you need.

You believe that you
Italians invented sex

whereas everyone knows...

We could have a
little private party.

That we Greeks did.

- Hey.
- Hey.

So that cryptic
message on the phone,

what are we talking about?

Bronson and Jennings.

It's selling at 25, come
Monday, it's half that.

Their new cancer drug is...
- shh.

It's getting
squashed next week.

So we short B & J?

And buy up what's
left with the profit.

I didn't see you at
the conservancy lunch.

I know, I'm sorry,
I couldn't make it.

Well you know, there's
an opening on the board.

I know, but my
plate is so full...

And I was thinking that
Deanna would be perfect.

- I'd be honored to help out.
- We should talk.

Positiv.

What the fuck is positiv?

The most successful female
Viagra the world has ever seen.

B & J holds the patent.

Now you have my attention.

Ladies, you know it's
my anniversary, so I am...

Happy anniversary.

Yes, say goodnight.

Well, in that case,
I'll wire the funds.

Yeah, yeah, the
family account.

I know about the family account.

Family account?

What are you boys plotting?

Our new summer house
in south Hampton.

Suzanne.

Ladies and gentlemen.

Miss Sasha Lazard.

Taxi for you, Mr. Dutchman?

My driver's here, thanks.

How do you know my name?

I've seen you on mad
money and the crunch.

"Put your drive at
the top of the list

"and you become an
unstoppable force."

Your words really
hit home with me.

Keep watching, kid.

Sir, any chance
a hard working guy

who's ready to put the job first

could catch a break
and come work for you?

Why the hell would
I give you a job?

How else is a guy from the
outside supposed to get in?

Give my office
a call tomorrow.

We'll see if we can use you.

Now that is what
I'm talking about.

What was that
business with Howard

about the family account?

It's just an opportunity
that shouldn't be missed.

I know, but what
did it have to do

with the family account?

Just tax reasons, baby.

Let me worry about
the business, Ok?

I've done well so far, right?

Excellent.

Oh, did I tell you who
called me the other day?

Who?

- Aaron.
- Steele?

Your old boss, huh?

Yes.

For what?

That they're looking
for an executive editor

and he was wanting
me to come back.

For what, 120 k
a year plus dental?

Why bother?

Well, it's not really
about the money and it's...

Baby, between India and China

and this new deal with Howard,

I need all your attention
on me right now.

All of it.

It's too important.

I love you so much.

Stop wasting my time, Lewis.

I don't want to hear it.

Yeah, don't call me
again until it's done.

All right?

We're only interested
in Alpha projects

with outsized returns.

Stop nodding when you
don't understand something.

- It's your worst tell.
- Tell?

Pick up a copy of Doyle
Brunsen's super system.

Read it cover to
cover by next week

- what's it about?
- Power poker.

- Got it.
- Don't say got it.

Faster than I would have
given you credit for, Lewis.

Let's hear it.

You just earned
your Hanukah bonus.

Congratulations.

- You play golf?
- Not well.

You only play the deep
Dale club in long island.

Why the deep Dale club?

You don't know something,

act like you do until
you've figured it out.

And what if I can't
figure it out, boss?

You can't figure it out,
join the fucking peace corps,

'cause that means you're
not cut out for this game.

I should have my own show.

Fuck trump.

Fuck me.

That's a true story.

Oh, hold on.

My, my, my, I like this place.

Indeed I do.

Excuse me, I have to go
speak to my concierge.

Yeah, give me that leg.

Are you sure you have enough?

My dear woman,
I'm an aristocrat.

We always have enough.

You're facing
real time, Howard.

And believe me, we would
love to see you do that time.

But there's something
we'd love even more.

Inhale, the right leg up.

Exhale, step the right
foot in between your hands.

Inhale, open up your chest.

Exhale and pop the left
knee behind the right ankle,

sit down seated, final twist.

Inhale, the right hand
down, the left arm up.

Exhale, twist, look over
your right shoulder.

Suzanne Dutchman?

Yes?

I'm gonna need
you to come with me.

Let's go.

What the hell is going on?

This is all Howard.

We are not guilty in any way.

Without his testimony,
they ain't got shit.

Why are they holding
you without bail?

You know they're saying
they're gonna charge me.

The lawyers are going
to straighten this out.

Listen to me.

Nothing is gonna happen to you.

Ok?

Is this your first time?

Yeah.

What made you come?

Sorry?

Why did you volunteer?

I wanted to do something
good for the community.

When people see a blind
man start to get up,

their instinct is
to grab his arm.

Big mistake with bill.

Got it.

Don't use hand signals.

Bill can still see
some shapes and light,

but he won't be able to
discern any waving or pointing.

No gesticulation.

I'll take two.

I'll take one.

Flush, Jack high.

Sorry Sonny, straight
flush to the king.

When you speak
to a blind person,

don't omit words
like see or look.

If they've heard any
good movies lately.

Got it.

Remember, he's a person.

His disability is only one
feature of his personality.

I know who he is.

He doesn't like fans, either.

What are you doing with
that fucking thing?!

If the Luddites had persevered,

we'd all be a hell
of a lot happier.

I'll give this shit
something to worry about!

I was trying to teach
him about the new GPS app

saying that technology was
gonna rob us of our humanity.

- Oh.
- Good luck.

Gavin O'Connor,
meet bill Oakland,

our very own indominus Rex.

You know I prefer the sound

of a lady's voice, Ella.

When are you
going to run away with me?

When are you going to shave?

You know, everybody
keeps talking about

how beautiful you are, Ella.

But to me, it's your spice.

I'll see you in two hours,
you blind son-a-bitch.

Hello, young man,
come in, sit down.

Thank you.

- Speak.
- Excuse me?

I'm gonna need a little
bit more than that.

Sorry, I don't understand.

Keep going.

Keep going with what?

For the love of god,

would you connect three
sentences together

so I'll have some
sense of whether or not

the next two hours of
my bleak and blind life

will be bearable or
torture to my ears.

Could you do that?

You're not doing
community service, are you?

I volunteered.

Why?

You got a hard-on for blind men?

No, I couldn't
get into your class.

- You're an undergrad.
- Sophomore.

You couldn't
get into my class,

so you found out where I go

to have my students'
stories read to me?

I don't appreciate
stalkers, O'Connor.

I'm not.

Seen any good movies lately?

Are you fucking kidding me?

Why are you here?

I want to learn how to write.

I don't teach
people how to write.

What about your students?

I teach them
what not to write.

If they learn something from
that, that's their business.

Sorry I bothered you.

Jesus Christ!

O'Connor, you're never going
to get anywhere in this world

if you give up so easily.

I mean...

Well, I don't particularly
want you to stay,

you creepy fucking kid,
but as you can see,

there wasn't a line of people
begging to come in here

and read my students'
mediocre stories to me,

now is there?

So...

Proceed.

How to love a woman
by Joseph Epstein.

Ah, Joey Epstein.

Jewish kid from the Bronx

who thinks he knows
all the ins and outs

of how to love a woman.

Well, does he?

No.

Does anyone?

One or two.

Do you?

Read.

Far, far away,

behind the word mountains,

far from the countries,

there lived the blind texts.

Separated, they lived
in bookmarks groove.

Right at the coast of
a large language ocean.

I guess sometimes
people get in a rut

and can't see how to get out.

But what momma must
have forgot is,

there's always a way out.

Suzanne Dutchman, while
your name is on the account

associated with your husband's
alleged illegal activities

and while you did
stand to profit

from your husband's actions,

I do believe that you
were not fully aware

of those activities.

Therefore I endorse
your plea to 100 hours

of community service
effective immediately.

Hey, Ella.

You Platza?

The Russian baths
out in Brighton beach.

Platza.

I'm still not following you.

They lay you down in a sauna

and then a big fat hairy
Russian guy comes in

with an oil-dipped
oak-leaf brush

and just beats the
stress right out

of your back and shoulders.

Wow, people pay for this?

They say it keeps you young.

I'm going this Saturday
if you're curious.

Back to work, Jimmy.

Yes, ma'am.

Thank you so much.

I'll see you soon,
have a good one.

Hello.

I'm Suzanne Dutchman.

I think I'm supposed
to report here.

Dutchman.

Docket number 2564.

Welcome to the
beacon for the blind.

Right this way.

Always keep in
mind his disability

is only one aspect
of his personality.

Yeah, you'll get used to it.

Use his name when addressing
him in a group setting.

- Oh, hey, Janice.
- Hey, howdy.

Don't ever push,
poke or shove him.

Well, when people see a
blind person start to get up

their instinct is to help him.

But with bill, if he
ever needs any help,

but don't use any hand
signals or gestures.

He won't be able
to make them out.

For the visually impaired,
feeling is seeing.

So don't be alarmed
if he touches you.

Touches?

Just give me one minute.

Bill?

- Bill.
- Yes?

Good news for you today.

We finally have a
female reader for you.

What does she look like?

What do you care?

Well, I wasn't always blind.

Suzanne?

Suzanne Dutchman,
meet bill Oakland.

How do you do, Mr. Oakland?

Tough name to carry around
these days, I'm sorry.

- Excuse me?
- Dutchman.

The guy who wanted to lay off

3,000 workers to make a buck
that he didn't really need.

You must have heard
of this sociopath.

Yes, I have.

He's my husband.

Well, I'm sure he's nice
once you get to know him.

I'll be leaving
you two alone then.

Just, just one minute.

You're not leaving me
alone with him, are you?

Yes.

But are you sure
that he's stable?

Stable?

He's not the one here
because of a court order,

Mrs. Dutchman, you are.

And please keep in mind that
if I report one violation

of your agreement you will
be remanded to prison.

Look, I don't want trouble.

Then don't commit
any violations.

Ok.

Won't you sit down?

What would you like
me to read first?

Before we get to that, I'm
just curious, why are you here?

I was given 100 hours
of community service.

No, I mean, how did
a nice girl like you

end up married to an
asshole like mark Dutchman?

I don't have to
explain myself to you.

Well, I already know
everything I need to know.

- Do you?
- Oh, my dear.

Even a visually impaired man
can see what you're all about.

And what am I all about?

I know your type.

And what type is that?

The type who loves
her enormous penthouse

and her ridiculously
oversized diamond ring

enough to cast a blind eye
to all the heartless acts

her husband had to commit in
order to get her these things.

I don't have to tolerate this.

Hey, you know, it's
actually my civic duty perhaps

to punish you just a little.

Your civic duty to punish me

for a crime I didn't commit

and something that you
know nothing about.

You know what, go fuck
yourself, Mr. Oakland.

It's go fuck yourself, bill.

I'd like to
request a transfer.

Oh, you're not allowed
to leave the room.

Well, I did and I am
not spending the next,

I don't know,
however many months

reading to that cretin in
a prison cell of a room.

He's absolutely repugnant.

Did someone tell you
this is supposed to be fun?

You have an hour
and 40 minutes left.

And remember, one violation.

So I suggest you get back there.

Now.

Oh my god.

Can we just start reading?

You know, it's rude to leave
the room without telling me.

I was sitting here talking
to you and now I don't know

what you heard and
what you missed.

You could be nicer to me.

Look, we got off
on the wrong foot.

Could we start over again?

No.

Why not?

Because I don't want to.

Why don't we begin with...

Margie Thompson,
Jeannie lost her way.

So, what's the
latest with mark?

When's he getting out?

He just keeps telling
me not to worry.

But I'm worried.

Well, he's going
to get out, right?

It's mark, I'm sure he's
gonna figure out a way.

Can you believe that he
hasn't even apologized to me?

I don't know
whatever this crap is

that he and Howard got into.

Using the family
account, what an idiot.

Everyone makes mistakes.

Yeah, well, this is a big one.

At least you're not
the one in prison.

After all, how bad could reading
to a blind man really be?

You try it.

- If it were me.
- Yeah?

I'd make the most of it.

Have a little fun.

Try something outrageous that
you can only get away with

if you're stuck in a
room with a blind man.

I mean, is he good looking?

Believe me, there
is nothing fun

about spending
time with this man.

I just want to let you know
that I went to the store

and I'm gonna cook you
one hell of a sexy dinner.

So work up an appetite.

Hey, it's me calling.

Have I told you lately
how brilliant and bold

and how beautiful, and brave,
and all the other b-words

that mean perfect
man, that you are?

In case you don't know who's
calling, this is your wife.

Anyway, I love you.

Hey, how it's going, Ella?

Oh, Gaelin, how are you?

No, it's Gavin.

Oh, sorry.

That's all right.

Yeah, I'm sorry, I had
to switch my service.

Well, bill's been assigned
a court ordered reader,

so he won't be
needing you anymore.

Oh, well, can I go
up and say goodbye?

Please.

Pretty please.

Five minutes.

Thank you.

So I hear you finally
got a woman's voice.

Is that you, Gavin?

The one and only.

Come in for a
minute, sit down.

And say that it's been real
fun hanging out with you.

You are a true
masochist, Gavin.

Well, the truth is my father
ran out on me when I was two.

Hold on, let me
get out my violin.

Would you just listen
to me for a second?

I got into a lot
of fights as a kid.

Good for you.

My mother was great to me.

She was really lonely.

Ended up with a really nice guy

and I should be thankful, but...

He wasn't a man, you
know what I mean?

I might.

When I read throw it
on the line for Venus,

for the first time
in my life, bill,

it was like someone taught
me what it meant to be a man.

When did I tell you
you could call me bill?

Seriously.

What is it you
want to say, Gavin?

You still live
up to your book.

And I lied to you.

I'm not enrolled at NYU.

I moved to new
York two months ago

with 700 bucks in my pocket.

And you know what, bill?

It was worth it.

Are you handy, Gavin?

What do you mean?

I have some projects
I'm working on at home.

Maybe you could come by and
give me a hand this weekend.

Call me on Friday.

Cool.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean to disturb you.

No, not at all. Ah...

You're just in time
to meet my protege.

The only kid crazy enough
to volunteer to read for me.

Gavin O'Connor, meet
Suzanne Dutchman.

How do you do?

Fascinated to meet you.

Oh, why is that?

I just can't imagine
anyone volunteering

to spend time with this man.

Well, he's an acquired
taste, but he's worth it.

All right, Gavin, I'll
talk to you on Friday.

Thanks, bill.

It was nice meeting you.

Nice meeting you.

I'm sorry I talked
to you that way.

I had no call to
treat you like that.

Thank you.

I appreciate your apology.

How was your day off?

It was fine.

That's good.

You still don't like me, do you?

Am I supposed to like you?

You might try.

You know, I'm sure that
you were self-centered

and narcissistic
before your accident.

And now you're self-centered,
narcissistic and blind.

I brought you a present.

Is it a green tea candle?

It might be.

Why, can you smell it?

Yes. It stinks.

- You don't like green tea?
- No.

But I'll tell you
what I do like.

I like your perfume.

Muguet de Bois.

How do you know
Muguet de Bois?

They don't make it anymore.

My stepmother used to wear it.

Well, she's got good taste.

Yes.

In everything except men.

So do I just take one
from the top of the stack?

Yes, and please get rid of
that foul smelling candle.

It really does stink in here.

You'll get used to it.

So where are we?

The grand jury's being sworn

and they're gonna start
to hear evidence soon.

It's impossible
to say at this time,

but you know,
maybe 3 or 4 weeks.

Not good enough.

I need you to take an honest
look at what you're facing.

There's a possibility of
you doing substantial time.

Your associate is
testifying against you.

Arnold, let me
ask you something.

Why the fuck am I paying
you $1200 an hour for?

To represent your interests.

Tell me again?

To represent your interests.

So why are you
telling me the obvious?

Do your job, stop dicking around

and get me the fuck out of here.

Ok.

Thank you, my
beautiful wife is here.

- Hello, Arnold.
- Mrs. Dutchman.

Hey, baby.

Hi.

Any progress?

I have faith in
the legal system.

Is he saying how long?

Soon.

Are you doing Ok in here?

It's not a situation
I can't handle.

Where's your ring?

I didn't think
it was a good time

to be flaunting what we have.

I want that ring
on your finger.

You hear me?

There's nothing
to be ashamed of.

It's just a little
uncomfortable.

Tell me about the
community service.

It's fine.

What do you want to know?

This blind man you read to.

He was a novelist
and now he teaches.

Teaches.

What's his name?

Bill Oakland.

He wrote that book, throw
it on the line for Venus.

It made a lot of money.

Oh, he doesn't have
a lot of money now.

What'd you think?

- Of the book?
- Yeah.

I never read it.

"She put down her
book, leaned back

"and clasped the paper
knife tightly in both hands.

"There was nothing
to be ashamed of.

"She called up all
her Moscow memories.

"She recalled the ball,
and Vronsky and his humble,

"enamored gaze, and their
relations with one another.

"There was nothing
to be ashamed of."

Hold on.

Why are you reading it that way?

This is the most important
moment in the book.

This is the moment
that Anna realizes

that she can no longer go
on bullshitting herself

that she's happy with her life.

You either have to make
the terrifying change

that will alter your life in
ways you can't imagine, or.

Or?

You take the safe route.

To live out the
rest of your days

drowning in that
familiar security,

while at night your
dreams are filled

with feasts you never touched

and love you never tasted.

Why aren't you saying anything?

I thought I was supposed to be

reading your students' stories.

I'm teaching
Karenina next semester.

I wanted to get reacquainted.

Ok, sorry, I'm...

Where were we?

"Nothing to be ashamed of."

"There's nothing
to be ashamed of.

"And yet,

"at this very point
of her recollections,

"the feeling of
shame was intensified

"just as though when she
was thinking about Vronsky

"some inner voice said to her,

"warm, very warm, hot.

"Resolutely changing her
position on the seat,

"what about it?

"What does it mean?

"Am I really afraid
to look straight

"at what passed between us?

"Well, what did pass between us,

"is there really, can
there be anything more

"between myself and
that boy officer

"than there is between me

"and every one of
my acquaintances?"

Oh, honey pot, you
like your Chanel no. 5.

"Something in my blood
was screaming out

"can we still save
the big easy?"

Can we open the window?

I'm sorry, would
you repeat that?

Can we open the window?

If I may, please don't
break the rhythm of a sentence

to ask some question.

I mean, the kid
was getting close

to writing a
halfway decent line,

and now the rhythm
is lost to me.

It's just really
uncomfortably hot in here.

What is going
on with you today?

Nothing.

Is everything Ok?

Everything's fine, it's just.

It's just hot.

Look, it isn't easy to edit

when you can't
look at the words.

We can't open the window
because the noise from outside

makes it hard for me to
follow the rhythm of each

sentence, paragraph, page, so...

Can you help me?

Yes, yes.

"The snake of the river below
as you fly into the city

"is a good portent
for the balance

"between sweet and sinister
one encounters in New Orleans.

"The winding river works
his way through her center

"providing the city with life

"knowing all the time he
can take it away on a whim.

"Down by the river,

"in the heart of the quarter,

"there stands a statue.

"Old man river, a
man with a past.

"Arms reach empty handed,

"god to a city in love with..."

wait.

What just happened?

I don't know, he
kinda lost me here.

No, I mean with you.

Nothing.

Your scent just changed.

What do you mean my scent?

Your pheromones got stronger.

Hey, bill, just getting the...

Trash.

Hey, Joey.

How's that Shakespeare
workshop coming?

Just great, bill.

In fact, it's
fan-fucking-tastic.

That's good to hear.

Ok then, you two
have a good time.

Where were we?

"God to a city in
love with water."

It was just really,
really hot in there today.

I feel like I'm going crazy.

Like I'm losing my shit.

I don't even know
what's real anymore.

I don't even know if I
know who mark is anymore.

I don't even know
if I know who I am.

Well, I know who you are

and I think you're
fucking fabulous.

That's real.

Do you think
mark's a good guy?

What?

I mean, yeah, of course.

Do you really think
that he's a good man?

Yes.

Why would you ask me that?

He's having an affair.

My god.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

Do you know who she is?

Not yet.

God, I feel so stupid.

You're not stupid.

No, I really,
I feel so stupid.

Like such an idiot.

Fuck him.

What are you gonna do?

I don't know, it feels
like it's all falling apart.

Suze.

Literally everything,

everything is falling apart.

But something has to change,

'cause this isn't working.

I was just checking to make
sure this is the right place.

The right place for what?

I'm looking for
a friend of mine.

- Papi, who?
- Bill Oakland.

Yeah, this is the right place.

I'm the super, he expecting you?

Yeah.

Hey, you want a beer?

Thanks, but it's a
little early for me.

Don't ever let people
tell you how to live.

Bill's on the second floor.

- Thanks, man.
- You got it, buddy.

Bill?

I'm back here.

Hey.

Welcome, Gavin,
make yourself at home.

Gee, thanks.

So...

What's this project
you're talking about?

You know this wasn't
really what I had in mind

when you said projects.

Scrub.

You don't have
a vacuum cleaner?

No.

Bill!

I don't entertain much.

So what are you having
me do all of this for?

You ever see the karate kid?

Yeah.

You're awfully quiet, Gavin.

I just had an idea
for a short story.

See, there's a
method to my madness.

Right.

I'll be out soon, baby.

You won't be doing community
service any longer.

It's not that bad, actually.

Not that bad?

What, you like
reading to this guy?

No, it's not that.

It just feels good to
be productive again.

What's that supposed to mean?

I need stability
outside of you.

Why would you say that?

Why?

Because you made choices.

Choices that you
didn't consult me on.

You know how many
choices I make in a day?

Am I supposed to consult
you on every one?

I don't care how many
decisions you have to make.

I care about this decision
which landed you here

and implicated me.

We're not guilty!

Howard is.

You'll understand that when
I'm out of this hellhole

and you won't have to read to
any fucking cripple anymore.

I'm sorry, baby, I'm sorry.

Just this place
is getting to me.

You can, listen to me.

I got your back, huh?

You can depend on me.

I promise you.

So how come you never
finished your second book?

How come you never
finished your first?

I'm building life experience.

What's your story, Gavin?

You got a girl?

There's a girl.

I'm just waiting for the
moment to present itself.

What's she like?

Well, you know her.

You mean Ella?

Yeah.

Forget it.

What?

Don't stop
cleaning, by the way.

You are definitely not
ready for a girl like that.

You might not know this, bill,

but I am a very
good-looking guy.

That's so funny, because you
don't come across like one.

Well, I was voted best
looking guy in high school.

Not enough for a quality
woman, a keeper like Ella.

And besides, your looks are
only one part of the equation.

So what's the rest?

Smarts, humor, money.

The ability to
make her feel safe.

The unpredictability
of a great lover.

So I got four out of five,
with potential for money.

How you gonna make money?

Writing.

What?

One day, you're
gonna meet a girl.

And she's gonna be lying
in your arms in bed,

and everything is just
going to make sense.

Jesus, bill.

You're getting me all hot
and bothered over here.

No, but seriously,
when was the last time?

You know, the last time
you were with a woman?

Not since my wife.

Your sympathy is
much appreciated.

I'd lose my fucking mind.

How do you know
I haven't already?

Oh, that explains a lot.

Hey, bill, I'm leaving.

Bill.

Gavin!

I didn't expect you to work

for the privilege of my company.

I don't want to
take your money, bill.

I'm not offering you money,

you presumptive little shit.

I'm inviting you to
sit in on my class.

Consider it a token
of my appreciation.

Thank you, bill.

You're all right, O'Connor.

Not the worst you
ever met, right?

You're quoting my book.

Get the fuck out of here.

What's your problem, Michelle?

I don't know how many more
of these parties I can do.

Well, the party
is in my honor.

It would be rude not to show up.

Rude?

How about how rude it is

that you're never home anymore?

Our strong readers could
come in three hours early.

And then you can do the rounds
I would normally be doing

when I'm talking to the
volunteers that first come here.

And then there was one other
thing that I wanted to ask you.

Oh, hey, bill.
You're here early.

I just thought I'd
do a little cleaning

before she gets here.

Oh, my.

You do windows too?

Anyway, where was I?

I must be in the wrong room.

I was looking for bill Oakland.

You inspired me.

I inspired you?

Every time you
walk in this room

you make me feel something I
thought I never would again.

And what's that?

Possibilities.

Do you need to get that?

Yes, I'm sorry.

Is everything Ok?

Yes.

Great.

May I ask you to
do something for me?

Sure.

But you'd really be
doing me a big favor.

I used to love
the smell of this.

Reminds me of when I was a kid.

My father injured himself
in a grilling accident

and I had to shave
him for two weeks.

That sounds so
naughty, but I love it.

Don't be obscene.

We're all just trying
to get home, I suppose.

I'm about to put an
extremely sharp razor

against your neck.

I would choose my
next words carefully.

They could be your last.

I'm in your hands.

Nice.

How many times did
you say you shaved your father?

I was a kid.

Look, I need to get your chin.

There you go, stretch it out.

Sexy.

How do I look?

Very handsome.

Suzanne Dutchman.

What's up, homes?

What's the matter?

You got ass-burgers?

What?

You anti-social
or something, hey?

You mean Asperger's?

No, I don't.

I just don't particularly
want to talk right now, Ok?

Listen to this
particular motherfucker.

From now on, you don't eat.

You bring your food,
you put it on a tray

and you bring it to me.

Big Ricky g.

Entiendes?

You understand?

Didn't your mother teach you

not to touch another
man's brownie?

What the fuck did you
say about my mother?

Break it up, break it up!

Now exiting subway.

Your destination is 200
feet straight ahead.

Beacon for the blind.

Approaching 50 feet.

You've now arrived
at your destination.

Turn right.

Hello.

Oh, you're here early.

I am.

How are you today?

Well...

I'm doing Ok.

How are you doing?

I'm pretty good.

What would you like
to start with today?

Maybe...

Margie Thompson?

Get her out of the way.

I want to go to the park.

I want you to take
me to the park.

I'm not allowed
to leave the room.

I know, so...

We'd better not get caught.

But I don't know if
I know how to do this.

It's Ok, I'll show you.

How you doing, boss?

What'd you find?

She reads to him two
hours, three times a week

and then she goes home.

Yeah, I don't think
you got anything

to worry about there.

Have you seen what
my wife looks like?

Yes, boss, but he's blind.

That doesn't
make him a eunuch.

I'm on it, Mr. Dutchman.

Take care.

I feel like we're the bad kids

ditching school to go smoke.

What's wrong with that?

I was as a matter of fact,
but that's a long time ago.

Isn't this pond just beautiful?

And that rock face over
there, its just exquisite.

Don't you think?

Yes, I do.

It's stunning.

Do you still remember
what it looks like?

Oh, oh, oh, yes, yes, I do.

And over again so
I don't forget.

No, it's the other things that
are hard about going blind.

You have to relearn
everything like a child.

How to wash yourself.

How to boil water.

How to function.

It took me a year just
to get up the nerve

to step outside my apartment.

Well, and now look at you,
escorting me to the park.

What are the chances?

Is this the ball field?

You know what I like
most about this ball field?

Is I can walk around
here without my hands

in front of my face.

You don't walk around
with your hands in front

that doesn't mean I
live without that fear.

You know, I played
football on this field

every weekend until I was 40.

Are there kids on
the field right now?

Okay, then hit me long!

Bill!

Oh shit.

Oh!
Bill!

Bill!

Bill are you okay?

Are you okay?

Yeah, I think so.

Don't ever do that again.

Wait.

What?

I think I can see.

Oh, shit, we're gonna be late.

Get your, get up, come on.

Get up, get up.

She's there.

Let's take the stairs.

Okay, 10 o'clock, 10 o'clock.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

"When she read how lady
Mary rode to the hounds

"teased the bride and astonished

"everybody by her boldness..."
- it's 4:04."

Oh, Ella, if I could
have another moment

with Mrs. Dutchman.

I want to hear the
end of this chapter.

Yeah, well, that's up to her.

Oh, it's a page and a half.

It's fine.

Okay, suit yourself.

What is it?

It's a leaf.

Hi.

Okay, okay, now you
all know I respect

y'all's opinions, but I'm sorry.

Can we please just talk about

the obvious latent
homosexuality rampant

throughout this chapter?

I mean, the blood, the flesh,

and the 11 Greeks piling
out of Camille's house

and Dean stays in
bed for three days.

Hello?

Is there any question
that Sal wants

to stick it up Dean's ass?

Hey, come on.

A little respect, please.

Did you have another
interpretation, homophobe?

I see on the road
as being a little deeper

than Sal just wanting to
stick it up Dean's ass, yes.

Darling, you can
go as deep as you like.

I think Kerouac's
saying Dean is Christ.

Closeted!

All right, enough
of this shit.

A writer is always
entitled to his intention

just as the reader is always
entitled to his interpretation

of the work.

A lot of people think
that Kerouac was,

as Kyle put it, closeted.

But when it comes to on
the road I tend to agree

with O'Connor in terms
of Kerouac's intention.

Page 185, Dean says
"they came into the room

"and found me lying on the bed,

"my arms stretched out forever."

This is after three
days, page 186.

"They unwrapped the
bandages and showed me.

"The flesh, about half an inch,

was missing under the nail"

which could be an interpretation

of a stake going
through the hand.

How about the 11 apostles,
Sal being the 12th,

which makes Dean.

All right now, get
the hell out of here

and go get some experience.

Bill, thanks for
letting me sit in.

You're better than
the rest of them.

I told you not to ask
me stupid questions.

See you later, bill.

"I think about
that night every day,

"but still he haunts me.

"He hovers over my bed at night
and whispers in my dreams.

"I still have integrity.

"What are you left with?"

The end.

I'd say that's a step
up for Joey Epstein.

I'd hate to see
his early works.

What are you reading now?

Franzen.

Although I did just come across

this really interesting writer,

bill Oakland.

So, what did you think?

I was pleasantly surprised.

It certainly wasn't the
worst I've ever read.

You know what this
means, don't you?

You must have dinner
with me tonight.

What?

Come with me to Brooklyn,
and I'll take you to Paris.

Paris?

Everybody knows that
Brooklyn is the new Paris.

Really?

Bien Sur.

Well, it's been a long time
since I've been to Paris.

So?

So.

What do you say?

Brooklyn it is then.

Hello.

Allow me.

Chivalry is not dead
among the blind.

Milla, may I have a, a vodka

on the rocks.

Just a glass of
red wine, please.

Thank you.
- Red wine.

Thank you for coming.

Thank you for inviting me.

You're probably
wondering why I asked you

no, I was actually asking
myself why I said yes.

Well, I am guilty of a crime

that I would never forgive
someone else for committing.

I judged a book by its
cover and I misjudged you.

And in spite of your

ridiculously oversized
diamond ring,

I was wrong about you.

You're not at all what
I thought you were.

Well, I actually
misjudged you as well.

I said that you were
self-centered, narcissistic

and blind and I realized
that you're self-centered,

narcissistic, blind
and a little charming.

Thank you.

Oh, thank you, Wes.

So maybe we can start over.

To starting over.

Do you like to travel?

I love Paris.

Do you love Paris?

In fact, it's my favorite
place in the whole world.

I begged my father to take
me on my 13th birthday.

And I got there and it
felt like this was home.

And I was determined
to live there.

That was my plan.

I was gonna go
there, write poetry,

sit in cafes and
smoke cigarettes.

Did you end up living there?

No.

Why not?

Just life and you know,

it just seemed like it
was a romantic notion

of a teenage girl and...

and and you know,
it didn't fit mark's

agenda of building an empire.

'Cause for him,
business is pleasure.

And that's pretty much it.

The cage with the golden bars.

I know it well.

I never planned to
stay in New York.

I always thought I
would end up in Paris

like the lost
generation or better yet

in some seaside town
in the south of France.

And once I learned that you
don't need a lot of money

to travel I was hooked.

I went all over Europe with
very little in my pocket.

Who cared if the bed was
lumpy or the bathroom

was down the hall.

The cheese was
splendid and the wine

was out of this world, so.

What more do you need?

That truly sounds heavenly.

Except for the lumpy bed.

And here we are.

How do you know
this is where it's at?

That's amazing.

Really impressive.

Hey, bill, how ya doing?

Well, hey, frank.

Frank, this is Suzanne.

Suzanne, this is frank.

Frank's the super
of our building.

How do you do?

Wow.

You're beautiful.

I tell people like it is
and you are a beautiful woman.

In fact, the two
of you look pretty

freaking beautiful together.

Bill, what'd you do?

The Botox.

Oh!

No, frank, it's just a shave,
but I appreciate the thought.

Hey, no problem.

Nice to meet you.

Quite a colorful character.

Yes.

Thank you for a
really lovely evening.

Where are you going?

I'm, I'm gonna go home.

Wait a minute, you
came all this way,

to see what a blind man's
apartment looks like?

Well, I didn't realize
that it was different.

Come on.

Thank you.

Can I get you
something to drink?

Would you like a glass of wine?

Sure, that sounds lovely.

White or red?

Red is perfect.

Oh good, because
all I have is red.

Is this your office?

Yes.

You look good on the track.

Well, it's how I put
myself through school.

Is this postcard from
the south of France?

Yes, it's from the
cote d'azur, my favorite place

in the world.

The town is called Eze.

Hmm.

Your wife is very pretty.

Thank you.

No kids?

No, I realized that I

couldn't be a good father
and good writer, so no kids.

How about yourself?

We tried for a long time, but

it didn't work.

Here you are.

Straight, 12 o'clock.

Thank you.

So tell me, dinner at the
French restaurant, the stroll,

the wine, I don't know

is this part of the normal
bill Oakland routine?

Actually, I haven't
had a woman up

to this apartment in five years.

Well, I guess then
I should be honored.

May I ask you a question?

Sure.

I can see shapes.

I can make out
your skin tone, but

what do you look like?

I have brown hair, Hazel eyes.

No, what do you look like?

Well, why don't
you see for yourself?

I can see that
you're beautiful.

And I can see that
you're fragile.

I wanna see the
way that you see.

How you see me.

I can see that
you're fragile too.

Suzanne?

Suzanne?

Hello?

Okay, yeah, okay.

I have a reservation
at Versailles at 7:00.

You think I'll make that?

Yes.

All rise.

Due to the untimely
death of our key witness

the government has no choice but

to drop all charges
against mark Dutchman.

Mr.
Dutchman, excuse me!

Mr. Dutchman, what do
you think really happened

to your former associate
Howard Cunningham?

Howard Cunningham
told lies about me

and I'll never know why.

But let's get one
thing straight.

I am, I am still grieving
over the freak accident

that took my friend's life.

That's all I have to say.

Sir did you have any comments?

Didn't I tell you that
it was going to work out?

You did.

Home sweet home.

What's wrong?

What really
happened to Howard?

He got hit by a bus.

Karma's a bitch.

I had nothing to do
with Howard's death.

How is your blind man?

I guess he'll be sad now
he doesn't get to sit

in his little room
jerking off about my wife.

Thought you'd be
happy about that.

Of course I am.

I'm gonna take a bath.

Yeah.

So they dropped
all the charges.

So this is it?

This is your last session?

I don't know how I
could justify coming.

Well, you could volunteer.

You do charity
work all the time.

You're not a charity case.

You're not coming
back, are you?

Please come back.

Please come back.
- No.

Oh yeah.

You're welcome, Mr. Dutchman.

What are you doing here?

Just in the neighborhood.

Did mark have you follow me?

I don't know what you're
talking about, Mrs. Dutchman.

What, you feeling
guilty or something?

What's it gonna take?

Not to tell him?

I don't know if I can
put a price on that.

Try.

Not tonight.

Are you fucking kidding me?

I'm tired.

Hey.

What'd you find?

Nothing.

Nothing?

I mean, she reads to him.

That's it?

That's it, boss.

Are you lying to me, Landry?

No.

You're fired.

Fired?

You got a hearing problem?

You sure that's a good idea?

I'm sorry?

Well, considering
everything I know about you

and given your current
standing with the us attorney

are you sure that's a good idea?

Now, that's the kind of
spirit I like to see in my team.

Maybe you're not such
a pussy after all.

There may be hope for you yet.

Thank you, Mr.,

fuck, fuck,

no, boss.

If I even dream,
you ratted me out

I'll take your fucking head
off with this golf club.

You hear me?

Are we clear?

Now I'm gonna ask
you one more time.

Is my wife having an
affair with the blind man?

Is she?

Yes!

Yeah, yes!

Fuck.

"He soaked in the
intoxication of her scent

"before diving headfirst
into her holiness.

"Sending her into a
paroxysm of pleasure

"she did not know existed
before his gentle touch."

You fuck as good as you write?

Who do I have the
pleasure of addressing?

Mark Dutchman.

Suzanne's my wife.

Dutchman's not
your real last name, is it?

Your voice has
a ring of queens to it.

I mean, polished, but
you can never take all

the far rockaway out
of there, now can you?

And where are you from?

Brooklyn.

You got balls for a blind man.

I'll give you that.

What is it you do for my wife?

Oh, I don't wanna
fight with you, mark.

No, I wanna know.

I need to know.

What is it you do?

You really need me to
spell that out for you?

I'm gonna say once, only once.

Do not see Suzanne again.

That's fine.

Just don't ask me to
keep my hands off her.

You think you can say
that shit to my face

and I'm gonna give you a
pass because you're blind?

No, no, mark, no.

I, I want you to treat me
just like any other guy

that's banging your wife.

What the fuck is
going on in here?

Get your hands off me.

What's wrong with you?

Get out of here.

Remember what I said.

You alright, bill?

Hey.

You remember this?

I had never been
as happy in my life

as I was in that moment.

You love him?

Mark.

Tell me.

I don't know.

I forgive you.

Just end this thing with him.

Oh, I don't know
if I forgive you.

I've made mistakes.

Everyone makes mistakes.

Even you.

But we can change.

I've changed.

You know what I thought
of when I was in prison?

You know what got me through?

You.

The thought of coming
home and holding you.

That's the only thing
that held me together.

Is that why you
had me followed?

What do I have to do to
keep the one uncorrupted

thing left in my life?

Just tell me what
you need, Suzanne.

Tell me.

And I swear to god
I'll give it to you.

You're my everything, baby.

You know that, everything.

I know, I know you
think you love him,

but let me tell you something.

Bill, bill's a short story.

I'm your novel.

Novels are work sometimes
but the short story,

it doesn't go on
to the next day.

It doesn't endure.

It's fun for a while,
but then fun runs out.

Then you realize, there's
no new chapter to turn to.

I don't know what
this is anymore.

I don't know you.

Don't leave me.

Don't, I can't live without you.

I can't.

Please don't leave me.

Please don't leave me.

Not when my whole fucking
world is falling apart.

Baby, please.

Please, baby.

I need you so much.

And I need you.

I need you.

I need you.

Suzanne, is that you?

Yes, yes, it is.

Please come in.

You are not going to believe
the kind of day I've had.

I actually was
inspired by to write.

That's great.

What happened to your face?

I bumped into something
when I was doing something.

May I offer you a
glass of champagne?

I'm sorry, bill,
I can't do this.

You can't drink champagne
in the middle of the day?

No, I, this can't
go any further.

I'm married.

It's not right, it's...

it's only wrong if
you stay with him.

Do you still love him?

He's my husband.

That's not an answer, Suzanne.

Yes, I still love him.

I don't believe you.

I am sorry, bill.

I have to, I have to go.

Suzanne, good to see you.

Nice to have you around.

Frank!

Yeah?

Which way did she go?

To the left.

Suzanne!

Suzanne!

Suzanne!

Jesus, buddy, buddy
buddy, are you okay?

- You okay, hey, come on.
- Come on, come on.

Come on, come on.

Hey, you're looking to
get yourself killed?

You got him, you got him?

Yeah, I got him.

Breathe, okay.

It's me, bill, I'm right
here, I'm right here.

You got hit by a cabbie.

All right, don't
move, don't move.

Buddy, you okay?

I'm right here, yeah, yeah.

Hey, it's me calling.

I just wanted to tell
you to be nice tonight.

You've been a grouch for
the last three nights

and I'm feeling kinda fragile

so please just be nice

tonight, okay?

I love you.

Michelle, this cannot
come as a surprise to you

but I want a...

ahh!

What's going on here?

I lost something.

I took it.

What?

Here.

Nothing left to win or lose.

When I was cleaning
your apartment.

I would have told
you, but I knew

you wouldn't let me read it.

That's because
it's not finished.

But it's not far.

Goddamnit!

How dare you?

Are you gonna finish it?

Yeah, I'm gonna finish it.

I'm gonna finish it.
- What are you, what are you,

no, stop!

Let it burn, Gavin!

No!

Let it burn!

What the fuck
is wrong with you?

Why don't you mind
your own business?

And do what you were
put on this earth to do?

It's time to move on.

Enough with the self pity shit!

You're blocked.

Change up the scenery.

I'm blind, Gavin.

The scenery doesn't change ever.

Everyone makes their excuses.

But it's only the losers who
quit because it's not fair.

Nobody said it had to be fair.

All right, so?

Well, you wrote that.

If you wanna give up,
that's your business.

But if you need help in
getting your life together,

then you give me a call.

Got no chance of breaking 20.

Do we all cave eventually?

Convince ourselves not
to take the final leap?

Just when our dreams
are within reach.

The opposite of love is
not hate, but indifference.

"He saw that the spring
had sprung the food was gone.

"But no mouse.

"You see, the mouse would
come in the middle of the night.

"She called for my grandfather.

"Papa," he came quickly!

"What's the matter?" He asked.

"There's a mouse in
our house," she yelled.

"But the mouse was gone.

"Don't worry," said papa.

However the
Nemesis of love is fear.

Fear creeps into you.

Builds up walls.

Traps you inside yourself.

Fear strangles you, slowly,

subtly

until one day there's
nothing left to win or lose.

Nothing left but the
thirst for the one drink

you don't have.

Nothing left, but the memory
of the one pair of lips

that could have saved your soul.

If only fear hadn't kept
you from taking the leap.

Okay, that's great.

Thank you so much.

All right, bye.

How are you?

Oh, Mrs. Dutchman.

I didn't know you
were reading today.

No, no, I'm not.

And please call me Suzanne.

Okay, Suzanne.

Do you know
where he is, Ella?"

Bill?

No, not a clue,
he just vanished.

But by the way,
it was really nice

to see you reading
to those kids.

They really loved you.

Hey.

Suze, hi.

What are you doing here?

I was just in the
neighborhood and I thought

I'd drop by to see if
you want to have lunch.

That Chanel no. 5?

Every now and then it's fun.

Oh, honey pot.

He likes five minute
eggs, not three.

Hey, I was just
gonna call you.

Wanna grab some lunch?

Don't, don't do that.

What's wrong?

I'm done.

I am really done.

Are we really gonna
go through this again.

No, we're not.

Deanna will love that.

All I ever wanted was
for you to be happy.

Oh, hello, bill.

Bonjour, Jean.

Hello, bill.

How are you today?

Ca Va Marie, et vous?

How is your little dog?

Still peeing on the
sofa, but what can you do?

Well, either kill him
or learn to live with it.
