Your Rolex President in 18 karat gold.

A very handsome timepiece, Mrs. Nolan.

- What's the occasion?
- Mr. Nolan's birthday.

- I'd like it engraved, please.
- Very good.

I'll put the watch on
Mr. Nolan's account.

No.

I mean... that won't work.

You see, it's a surprise
for Mr. Nolan's birthday,

and he can't know anything about it.

I'll pay in cash when I pick it up.

But the watch needs to be purchased

in order to engrave it,

which means it must go
on Mr. Nolan's account.

And if that's not possible,

I'm afraid I can't help you.

Will there be anything else?

No.

I'm... I'm sorry to have troubled you.

I completely understand your position,

and I know you'll understand
when I have my husband

close his account here
and take his business,

which has included many
substantial purchases,

elsewhere.

- Elsewhere?
- Yes.

As in somewhere else.

I can hold the watch for you
until Thursday, Mrs. Nolan.

That's the best I can do.

Thursday will be fine, Andre.

Am I missing something here?

The caterers want to put
the food in a tent.

It's a birthday party,

not a scene from "Lawrence of Arabia."

This party's gonna cost a fortune.

Every day at work, I keep thinking

you're gonna walk into the
bank and ask for a loan.

You know what I think would be fun?

Please don't say a costume party.

A costume party,

and don't sit there and act like

you didn't have a good time at mine.

I love a costume party.

I went as Wonder Woman. I
just love Lynda Carter.

She's dating Paul Michael Glaser.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

Greg works in casting at Paramount,

and he gets all the Hollywood gossip.

Kathleen tells me you stayed

to be an actress back in New York.

True, but then talkies came in,

and I was out on my ass.

I'm just curious as to why you
didn't pursue your career.

I got pregnant, and that was not

what proper, unmarried girls
from nice New York families

- did in those days, so...
- Mommy.

Ooh, baby.

Becca, darling, come over here

and give your mother
a disinterested hug.

Hey.

These are the stars in this family.

Girls, say hello to your
aunt Kathleen's friend Greg.

- Hello.
- Hi.

Have Julia to get you girls a snack.

Julietta!

- Romantic.
- Oh, my God, Diana.

The pool boy keeps looking over here.

I think he sees something he likes.

Mm, yes. Shade.

Would it be all right if I take a dip?

Of course. Follow the path.

There's a door that leads
to the guest bathroom.

Mmm. Have fun.

- This way?
- Yes.

I don't know why you take
those diet pills, Kathleen.

You look thin already.

Well, now I've got a man,

and I'm doing everything
I can not to lose him.

Why are you worried about losing him?

Well, I'm not worried.

Greg is great.

He's so sweet and attentive.

But there's just no spark.

Sometimes I think I
might not be his type.

Well, what is his type?

Honey! I'm home.

Hello, handsome.

You look fantastic. Is that a new dress?

Got it today.

Mmm.

I like the color.

How was your day?

Good.

The girls came by.

We had a nice afternoon by the pool.

Kathleen has a new boyfriend.

Mm-hmm.

Of course she does.

I'm so tired I can barely
keep my eyes open.

If you're too tired,
maybe we should cancel.

No, I can't.

Paul and his wife are new in town.

They don't know anyone.

Besides, they kind of remind me of

you and I when we first started out.

... major in physics or
become a brain surgeon.

It is the working woman demanding

that she get the same pay

and promotion opportunities as a man...

What, are you watching this?

Not really. I just had it on.

Wait, do you understand
what she's talking about?

- 'Cause I sure don't.
- Well, I think some women

want to work

and have a career.

That's what Diana's doing.

- I don't think it's that crazy.
- Yeah, I guess,

but it's no picnic out
there in the real world.

And I feel like you women
have it pretty good.

I mean, why complain?

I-I proposed to her at a drive-in.

During "Ben-Hur." And I
had this whole plan.

I was gonna wait till the movie
was over, everyone's gone,

get down on my knee,

pull out the ring, pop the question,

the whole romantic thing, okay?

I even had the bottle
of champagne set aside

in case she said yes.

But I-I got a little nervous, didn't I?

Did I?

I asked her during the chariot race.

So what are your thoughts
on Jerry Brown, Steve?

Jerry Brown? Oh, you know,

I'll take a "wait and see" on that.

He's dating Linda Ronstadt.

Do you listen to rock music, Bonnie?

How old do you think I am, Margo?

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't
mean it like that.

You just seem sophisticated,

and a lot of what they
play is kind of out there.

Linda Ronstadt has a great ass.

But not as good as yours, honey.

Isn't he the sweetest?

I'm gonna pop into the
ladies' room for one moment.

- Bonnie?
- Just let me grab my walker.

How long have you two been married?

Two years.

And how far along are you?

Oh, my gosh, can you tell?

Lucky guess.

We don't want anybody to know.

Paul wants me to get rid of it.

Why?

He says it's not a good time.

And he's right, you know.

He's just starting out in his career

and he doesn't want a family right now.

Well, what about what you want?

Well, I...

I would like to have a baby.

I've always wanted that.

To be a mom.

Anyway...

It's not about me. It's about Paul.

We have to support our husbands, right?

Isn't that what we do?

Yes, that's what we do.

You don't smell like you.

- Don't I?
- No.

Are you wearing a different cologne?

Yeah, I thought I'd try something new.

- Steve...
- Hey.

I need more money for the party.

Listen, I told you not to go overboard.

- Didn't I say that?
- I'm not.

I just want it to be special for you.

This party's my gift to you.

Well, it's not a gift if I pay
for the entire goddamn thing.

Hey. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I know you've been working
really hard on the party.

If I had some of my own money,

I wouldn't have to ask you all the time.

Oh, hey, listen to me. Listen to me.

Tomorrow morning, I'm gonna
write you a check, okay?

Get everything you need.

You forgive me?

Yes.

I love you.

- Yeah? I love you.
- I love you too.

- Aw.
- You're so goddamn beautiful.

All right. Come here.

Steve, it's late.

Don't mind us. We're just
here for the drinks.

- Ah.
- I'm so glad you're here.

- Hi, Greg.
- Hi.

You can be the first to congratulate us.

We're going into business together.

Greg's opening up his
own casting agency.

You don't know anything about casting.

Greg's in charge of that.

I'm just putting up the money.

I've always wanted to
get out of the studio

and work for myself, but I've
never been able to afford it.

Oh, I got to run.

So maybe we could meet up tonight

and celebrate at Crush Club?

- Okay.
- All right.

- Bye, baby.
- I want to see this one dance.

- Oh. Okay.
- Bye, Greg.

- Mmm.
- Did you order?

Oh, no, I'm not eating.

I want to lose a few more
pounds before Steve's party.

I need to watch my figure.

You're probably right.

The only thing Greg
wants to see fat on you

is your pocketbook.

- Bonnie...
- Mmm-hmm.

It's an investment.

We're gonna split the profits 50/50.

You know, women can start businesses.

- That's true.
- A couple on "Phil Donahue"

opened a nudist colony together.

Really? They like seeing
each other nude that much?

Phil had this woman on

who found out her husband
had been flying to Miami

every other weekend because

he secretly married another woman.

- Oh, my God.
- And do you know

what made her suspicious?

His sudden craving for Cuban food?

No. He changed his cologne.

You want to split the club sandwich?

I'm not eating.

- Hello.
- Hey, honey, it's me.

Hey, listen, I'm stuck at
work. I'm gonna be late,

so just have dinner without me.

That's all right, darling.

I'll just keep everything
warm until you get here.

No, it's okay. I'm gonna be really late.

- We're having an emergency.
- Really?

You have emergencies in real estate?

Yeah, so, listen,
they're calling me now.

I got to go. I love you. Don't wait up.

Ow. Get off me.

Mom, slow down.

You're always wanting to
go on those ridiculous

amusement park rides that throw
you around like a rag doll.

This is just like that, and it's free.

Why are we at Daddy's work?

What's so funny?

I am.

Let's go home.

We can go home now.

Look, Mommy. Daddy got flowers for you.

Mom? What's going on?

Where's Dad going?

- Mom.
- Don't look in the windows.

We don't know these people.

Mom, I'm getting bit by mosquitoes.

How can I go to my dance
recital with bites all...

Wear pants. You'll be
the Katherine Hepburn

of your school.

Girls, stay down.

Out of sight.

Come on.

Mom, I stepped in dog poop.

That makes two of us.

I'm hungry.

Me too.

Mom.

I heard you.

We'll stop at Pioneer Chicken
and pick something up.

- Oh, can we have biscuits?
- Biscuits?

Does it feel like we're
celebrating to you?

- Mom, where are we?
- Oh, God.

Are there parts of this town
they just didn't finish?

Hey.

How much will $20 get me?

Aw.

Mom, who was that?

Lee Majors. How should I know?

Seriously, Mom, if you
keep on driving like this,

I'm gonna need a neck brace.

Mom, that dude is following us.

Mom, what is he doing?

Make him go away!

Mom!

Mom, do something!

Okay, okay. Okay, girls.

Keep the doors locked until I get back.

Where are you going?

Becca, take care of your sister.

Wait, Mom. Just...

Whatever you do, don't tell
'em you voted for Nixon.

Are you having fun? Huh?

Driving around trying
to frighten people?

Well, you're not frightening me.

Okay?

So you better get the hell out of here,

or I'm gonna grab the tire
iron from the trunk of my car

and make friends with
the side of your face.

Your brights are on.

What did you say to 'em, Mom?

I let them know what's what.

Let that be a lesson to you girls.

Never let a man intimidate you,

under any circumstances.

You always have to
stand up for yourself.

Ah.

Little late for a nightcap,
don't you think?

I've been waiting to
hear about your evening.

What happened?

It's past midnight, so I'm assuming

you not only sold the house,

you also built it?

Ah, it's a whole lot of
boring business stuff.

Keep it simple.

I'll try to follow along.

For instance,

who was on top?

You?

Or did you shake things up

and let the human Barbie
doll have a break

from staring at the ceiling all night?

How do you know about that?

It doesn't matter.

Listen, Bonnie, it
doesn't mean anything.

That's your answer?

Is that supposed to make me feel better?

You should be ashamed of yourself.

Who do you think you're talking
to? I'm still your husband.

I thought you loved me.

- But you don't, do you?
- Of course I love you.

You're upset. I know that.

But we're just gonna forget
that this ever happened

- and just move on.
- Yeah?

I can't do that.

I want you out of this house tonight.

I don't care what you want!
This isn't a democracy.

It's a marriage, and
I'm in charge of it.

I've got a career and
reputation to uphold

that supports this family!

So this is a private matter, and
we're gonna keep it private.

Am I making myself clear?

If you think I'm going to live a lie

and be the topic of whispered gossip

- at people's dinner parties...
- Okay, okay.

So you could sell more
houses, you are mistaken.

I have always put you first!

Before me and before what I wanted.

But I won't do this, Steven.

I won't be shamed by you,

- not this time.
- Listen.

- Listen.
- I don't take orders from you...

- Listen!
- Anymore!

Are you afraid?

You should be.

Because your life

is never gonna be the same without me.

Turn the lights out when you're done.

I pay the bills around here now.

So based on what you told me,

I put together a list of
what it's going to take

to keep the house going.

I hope you included a case of vodka.

I talked to Daddy,

and he gave me the name of
a good divorce attorney

here in town, just in case.

All I want is the house.

The... it's my babies' home.
They grew up here.

No one is taking that away from them.

I understand you're angry, but...

how are you gonna survive?

My parents offered to give
me a little bit of money.

And I'm letting go of Julietta.

What? Who's going to clean?

And I also fired the gardener.

What? Who's gonna garden?

Being on your own isn't easy.

You have to be careful.

When I got hired at the bank,

I thought in five years I'd
be the general manager

of that branch, and I had
heard how hard it was

for women to go out on their
own, but I was convinced

it was gonna be different for me.

Diana, I don't understand.

You've always told us you
were doing very well there.

Yes, if by "very well" you mean

I don't go to the ladies' room
and cry more than once a day

or I manage to get out of
there without my idiot boss

telling me I have nice tits.

Then, yes, I guess I'm doing very well.

But I want more than that.

And there are not a lot of
options out there for us.

Believe me. I know.

But what am I supposed to do?

Maybe I should call him
and take him back,

forget this ever happened.

Bonnie, you cannot do that.

Diana's right.

Daddy always says a
snake can shed its skin

and straighten its line,
but at the end of the day,

it's still just a snake trying
to get back into the coop.

Okay, Texas is a very weird place.

Got a minute?

I'm sorry.

And I know you guys are
probably mad at me.

But we need to talk.

About what?

Your father is with another lady.

And he's probably not coming back.

And I wish I didn't
have to tell you this,

but I want you to know the truth,

because I love you and I
don't want to lie to you.

A liar is the worst thing you can be.

A stripper's also bad.

Is Daddy gonna live with
that other lady now?

I don't know.

Did you want him to leave?

No, I didn't.

But he needed to.

Are you sad?

A little.

Me too.

I wish he'd come back.

I know you do, baby,

and I'm gonna do everything I can

to make it better, I promise.

Come here.

I'm sorry about what I said.

You're not horrible.

That's all right.

Sometimes I am.

Bonnie Nolan, you really
know how to throw a party.

You actually managed to
have Steve's birthday

without Steve.

This is nothing.

Wait till you see what I have planned

for our anniversary.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

But I'm glad you two are here.

Hmm.

Are you getting sentimental on us?

I was talking about after the party.

You know how I hate to clean up.

- We can help you clean up.
- Ooh, sorry. Sorry.

- We will.
- I will.

I always... oh.

- It's our song.
- Ours?

- It's our song.
- Are you inviting me to dance?

I am inviting you to dance.

- Come on, Mom.
- So precious.

Y'all... you got it!

Come on.

- Right.
- Okay, right.

Whoo! Ooh.

Is this the Nolan residence?

What's the charge, officer?

Operating a home while
under the influence?

I have a warrant for the
arrest of Steve Nolan.

Is he in trouble?

Are you his wife?

I used to be.

But Mr. Nolan doesn't live here anymore.

This is my house now.

Not for long.

I'd get a lawyer if I were you.
