Mr. Kitteridge will be by
once a week to mow the lawn,

and I need to stop by
to deadhead those roses.

Oh, all right.

Don't worry. I won't be talking to you.

I'll do my job and then I go.

- Can we play with your dog?
- No.

He doesn't like children.
Don't throw balls

in the flower beds, please,
and keep the screen door closed.

We have flies when there's
no wind and they bite.

Towels and linens are on the bed.

Any questions, phone
numbers are right there.

We do not answer the
phone after 9:00 at night.

All right then. There you go.

- Clancy, come on, let's go.
- [Door opens, closes]

[Whirring]

Olive: Clancy, come here.

They all settled in?

Like bugs in a rug.

Olive: I'm gonna start lunch.
You come in when you're done.

Okay.

[Cricket chirping]

[Door closes]

- What do you think?
- Oh, Henry, that's nice.

That's a beautiful piece of wood.

Henry Thibodeau gave us that wood.

I think I'll give that to Denise.

Old what's-his-name won't like that.

Eating salad out of dead Henry's bowl?

Well, Jerry doesn't need to know.

- That's right. To hell with him.
- Mm-hmm.

[Phone ringing]

Afternoon. Kitteridge residence.

Chris: Pop, it's me.

Hi, Chris! How are you, son?

Chris: I need to talk to
both of you. Is Mom in?

Yeah, she's right here.
Is everything okay?

Chris: Yeah. It's just...
why don't you both get on?

Henry: Okay, hold on.
I'll get on the other line.

[Softly] He wants to talk to both of us.

- What's going on?
- I don't know. I'll pick up in here.

Hi, Christopher. It's your mother.

- Hi, Mom. Is Dad on?
- Your father's getting on the line.

- Henry, are you on there?
- Henry: Yep, yep.

Okay, all right. Go ahead.

Did you and Suzanne
try going to counseling?

Chris: Yeah, we went
for a couple of months,

but we knew it wasn't going to work out.

- I'm just... I'm so sorry.
- Chris: I'm okay with it, Pop.

- Chris: Really, I am.
- Did you fall in love with someone else?

- Chris: No.
- Did she?

[Sighs]

- Chris: I don't know.
- So she was having an affair?

Chris: Ultimately, that
is not really the point.

We were just a wrong match.

I don't even know what to say.

Chris: I'm fine with it,
Pop. It is what it is.

Well...

you come home then.
You can have your house.

It's only rented till the end of July.

Chris: I'm staying
here. I like California,

and my practice is doing well.

You had a good practice here. Everyone
asks if you're ever coming back.

Chris: I don't want to come back, Pop.

Oh.

Do as you wish, Christopher.

It's your life.

I have something on the stove.

Chris: Okay. Mom, I...

[Laughs] Jesus.

Chris, you there?

- Chris: Yeah.
- I'm sorry, son. I...

I really liked Suzanne.

Chris: She liked you too.

Maybe you'll come visit.

Chris: We'll see.
I'm pretty busy right now.

Listen, I have to call you
back. I'm at the office.

Oh, I'm... I don't want to keep you.

Okay, you take care of yourself, son.

Chris: Thanks, Pop. You too.

Henry: All right. Bye.

[Phone clicks]

Well, I did not see
that one coming. Did you?

What do you think happened?

The bloom wore off. She
thought she could do better.

That's the type she is.

He married an opportunist.

I thought he was calling
to tell us Suzanne was pregnant.

Well, not to be.

We should sell the house.

- I don't want any more renters.
- He could change his mind.

He's a grown man, Henry.

Why should he want to
live next door to us?

Yeah. Why should he?

Are you going to eat that?

Not right now, Ollie.

Go do something, Henry.

All right. I will.

[Scrubbing]

[Scrubbing]

Henry?

Henry, where are you?

[Muttering] Oh God.

I'm so tired of yelling my brains out.

Henry?

What are you doing?

Oh, hmm...

you know...

I always thought that someday
I'd bring the grandkids up here.

Show 'em their dad's old train set.

We'd dust it off and
put the tracks together,

get it running again.

Maybe I'll set it up anyway.

- Henry.
- What?

Snap out of it.

- [Bell rings]
- [Gulls caw]

[Humming softly]

- [Car honks lightly]
- Thank you.

- Man: Hi, Henry.
- Hey, Ed.

- Oh, hi.
- Hi, Carol.

- Hi, Henry. Thank you.
- You're welcome.

- Thank you, Henry.
- Hey, Stan the man. You're welcome, buddy.

[Entry chimes]

You in line?

I am.

It's not like the old days, is it?

Excuse me?

The service isn't what it used to be.

No, it isn't.

- Okay, all set?
- No.

I don't know what in God's name
is going on back there, but...

- Hello.
- Hi.

Henry Kitteridge?

- My pharmacy used to be...
- Oh, of course.

- We used to use you.
- You did, yes.

- Jack.
- Yeah?

This is our old pharmacist.
Do you remember?

Oh, yes.

[Chuckles] Hi.

Oh, listen, Henry. We're taking
a cruise to Belize next week.

Can you recommend
something for seasickness?

Well, I always recommend Dramamine.
Would you like me to get it for you?

Thank you, Henry. That's very kind.

Sure.

Oh boy. I forgot it was that time of year.

- Excuse me?
- Fathers' Day.

Oh. Yeah.

- Did you send yours off yet?
- My what?

- A card to your dad.
- Oh, no. Hadn't thought about it.

No? Well, I'm sure he'd appreciate it.

It's a made-up holiday.
I don't think he cares.

Well, everybody likes to get a card.

It's a nice reminder that
you're thinking about him.

My dad doesn't want to
know what I think about him.

Oh.

Gee, that's too bad.

No, it isn't.

P.A.: Attention, pharmacy, you
have a call holding on line three.

Line three, please.

[Barks] Oh, Clancy, no!

[Sighs] Oh God.

- [Henry kissing]
- Don't reward him for running at the car.

- Henry: Oh, it's okay.
- Oh my God.

- It's okay. Yes.
- [Dog whimpering]

[Chuckles]

- What's this?
- I thought they were unusual.

Thank you, Henry.

I love you, Ollie.

Yeah, you too, Henry.

Clancy, come on. [Grunts]

Clancy.

[Piano music playing]

Woman: ♪ How much do I love you? ♪

♪ I'll tell you no lies... ♪

Does Christopher have a lawyer?

He didn't say. We didn't ask.

If she's a greedy gump,
he's gonna need one.

We think it's fairly amicable.

She wanted out. She
thought she could do better.

- You don't know that, Ollie.
- Sure I do.

[Scoffs] Good riddance.

- What about the house here?
- It's under his name.

- Oh, that's good. One less thing to grab.
- Mmm.

You think he'll move back?

- He still could.
- Not in a million years.

Well, thank God they didn't have kids.

That could've been a real nightmare.

- Who has the crab cakes?
- Right here.

Over here. Thank you very much.

- That looks nice.
- Anyone mind if I start?

No, go right ahead.

So how are your grandkids?

[Groans] They're spiteful.

Oh, really?

You know what the little
one said to me the other day?

She looked me right in
the eye and she said,

"You may be my grandma, but that
doesn't mean I have to love you."

And the other one looked at
me and she said, "me too."

- Henry: Oh gosh.
- That's rotten.

- Bonnie: Ha!
- Did you talk to Julie about that?

Oh, well, she encourages it.

Oh-ho. She wants them to be
able to express themselves.

- For God's sake.
- That's no good.

- She needs to teach them better manners.
- Yeah.

Well, that's not gonna happen. Huh.

She's rude to me as well.

You can't win. Even when you do your best.

No, you can't win.

Well, to hell with her.

To hell with all of 'em.

Humph.

Bonnie: Yeah.

That's what I say.

♪ How high ♪

♪ Is the sky? ♪

[Piano fades]

- That was great.
- Man: It sure was.

[Sighs]

[Henry humming]

[Burbles]

[Chuckles]

- Boy, that's just awful.
- Hmm?

The rotten grandchildren
talk to Bonnie like that. It's just...

They sound like real hellions, oh...

That Julie's not much.

Bonnie always talked about
her like she was God's gift.

- You never really know what goes on.
- No, you do not.

[Stomach burbles]

[Burps] I ate too much.

- You want a Rolaids?
- Yes, please.

[Humming]

[Groans] But you know,
if you think about it,

Suzanne would've raised
her kids the same way.

Well, I don't think Christopher
would've allowed any rudeness.

- Mm, but it's a mother they listen to.
- Hmm.

I'm sure you'd have
straightened them out, Ollie.

- You bet I would.
- [Stomach growls]

You know, I was thinking.

We should take a trip together.

- Mm, wouldn't that be nice?
- Yeah. Someplace warm like Bermuda?

- Or maybe a cruise?
- I'd rather go someplace on our own.

- You get a lot of dopes on a boat.
- You're right about that.

We'd see a lot more on our own.

Oh, Godfrey.

- What's the matter?
- I need a bathroom.

We'll be home in 10
minutes. Can you hold on?

My bowels are about to explode.

- Just try to hold on.
- I don't think I can.

You need to find something,
Henry. I'm trying, I'm looking.

Let's go. Oh, here. Hold on.

My bowels are about to explode.

- Go to the hospital, go to the hospital.
- Are you sure?

- [Honks]
- Yes. Run the light, Henry. Run the light.

- Henry, run the light.
- I can't...

Go! Oh, there's nobody else around, go.

[Car bumping] [Olive groaning]

[Sighs] Oh God. Go to
the emergency entrance.

Oh. What are you doing? There! There!

- All right. all right...
- Go, go!

Come on! Come on, Henry!

Go, go, go, go!

Wait. Don't hit the lady.

- Hang on.
- Okay, stop. Stop here, stop.

Oh.

All right. I'll wait here for you,

but if they want me to move
I'll come in and look for you.

Yeah. Right.

All right. Go, go, go.

- I need a bathroom.
- It's right across the hall.

[Flatulence] Oh Godfrey.

[Door slams]

[Faint groans]

[Softly] ♪ How much do I love you? ♪

♪ Mm, I'll tell you ♪

♪ O lies... ♪

Whew.

- Are you all right?
- All clear.

- Diarrhea?
- Explosive.

I had dinner with friends
and I ate everything in sight.

I'm fine now. Thank you very much.

- Any vomiting?
- Excuse me?

Did you have any vomiting?

No, none of that.

You seem pretty short on business tonight.

Well, weekends we pick up.

Well, I'm sure you have a lot of fools

that pass through re who drink
and drive and crash into trees.

Oh, we get all kinds of situations.

We had a man come in who sawed
off his finger with chainsaw.

He was smart enough to
put the finger on ice,

so we got it back on, good as new.

Good.

I was born here in the old wing.

That's so neat. Welcome back.

And I brought my father's body in here.

I don't know why. He
couldn't have been more dead.

Oh, well, people can be
revived after a heart attack.

- We've done that.
- No, no. He, uh...

blew his head off.

- He was dead, dead, dead.
- Oh. I'm sorry.

No. No need. It was just a fact.

All right. I'm going home now.

- Thanks much.
- Oh, but the doctor's ready to see you.

I don't need to see a
doctor. I just needed the john.

Are your ears always that red?

Why, am I getting ready to die?

Did you have any shellfish?

Just a couple of crab cakes.

We lost a woman in here
just the other night.

She had been out to dinner
with her husband and had crab.

She came in here with diarrhea

and three hours later she was
dead of anaphylactic shock.

For God's sake.

- Are you allergic to shellfish?
- Never have been.

That can change. Do your palms itch?

Not that I can tell.

We better have the doctor take
a look at you just to be safe.

All right.

[Stammers] Let me just tell my husband.

- Olive: Henry.
- [Knocks]

They want to check me out.

- You all right?
- Yes.

Some dumb woman died of crabmeat here,
and they're afraid they're gonna get sued.

- You want me to come in with you?
- No, I'm fine.

You better park the car though. God knows
how long they're gonna take with me.

Seems business is slow in there.

Doctor: How long ago did
you have the crab cakes?

About two hours ago.

Did you have anything else?

A steak, a baked potato,

creamed spinach, a puny little salad,

but with a nice dressing on it,

and a lovely piece of cheesecake.

Your blood pressure is a
little on the high side.

- Are you on any medication?
- No.

I'm just gonna check your lymph nodes.

Don't see any sign of a rash.

Are you having any more abdominal pain?

I'm just a little queasy.

This could just be a
case of gastro reflux,

but we should examine you.

If you could put this on.
Everything off. Open in front.

Oh, for heaven's sake. Do I have to?

We want to make sure you're
all right, Mrs. Kitteridge.

Better safe than sorry.

Oh, for God's sake.

Have you ever been to the Florida Keys?

They have boat trips where
you can swim with dolphins.

Wouldn't that be something?
I'll have to look into that.

And have you ever thought
about going to Cuba?

You'd have to fly out of Toronto
because of the restrictions and all.

But I hear it's really neat.
All the cars are from the 1950s.

Oh, that would be a fascinating
trip, then wouldn't it?

I think my wife would enjoy that.

- I love Cuban music.
- Do you?

Do you and your wife like to dance?

We haven't in years, but you know, it's...

- [Rifle clicks]
- Don't fucking move!

[Muttering] Stupid.

Stupid, stupid, stupid.

This is just ridiculous.

Hello? I'm ready.

May we please proceed?

[Whispers] Oh, for God's sake.

[Door opens] Well, it's about time.

- Get down!
- Hey now!

- Get down. I said get down!
- Get down where? Be clear.

Come on, just grab the shit!

He said fucking move, you bitch!

Move!

- Where the fuck is it?
- Come on, come on.

Let's fucking go.

- Shit!
- Fucking move it!

- Come on!
- [Groans]

Fucking go!

Go!

Hurry up!

Come on, hurry the fuck up!

Fucking go, you bitch!

Hurry up! In there! Get in there!

[Olive moans] In there!

Olive. Olive, did they hurt you?

Shut the fuck up!

Hands behind your back.

You, hands behind your fucking back!

Don't say another word, old man,

or I will fucking blow
your head clean off.

Fuck!

- [Robber growls]
- [Henry stammers] No, wait.

No, don't wrap her
hands too tight, please.

Henry: You're gonna cut
off her circulation.

- Olive: Sh!
- [Man growls]

- Henry: Don't wrap it so tight.
- Shut the fuck up!

Get down. Get down!

On the fucking ground!

Get down! I'm trying, I'm trying.

Well, help her, for God's sake!

Pig Mask: Fucking help her.

If any of you fucking moves,

you will get shot in your fucking head!

Don't anyone look at me or I'll
shoot your fucking heads off.

Henry: Sir? Sir?

Would you please cover up
my wife? She's all exposed.

- God, Henry!
- Oh, Jesus. Lady.

What was I supposed to do?

These stupid people
wanted to have me examined.

- Don't look at me.
- Okay.

[Whimpers]

[Sighs]

That's the first decent
thing you've done tonight.

Shut up! Get your fucking head down.

There's no need for that. You
don't have to speak so filthy.

What'd you say to me, old man?

What the fuck... fuck did you say?!

You'll get us all killed.

Ski Mask: What the fuck did you say to me?

Answer me! What the
fuck did you say to me?

I said you don't need to talk so filthy.

You should be ashamed of your mouth.

Olive: Please! Please, please, please!

He got that from his
mother. Just ignore him.

- Is this guy your husband?
- Olive: Yes.

- Well, he's a fucking nut!
- He can't help it.

He can't help it. You would've
had to know his mother.

She was just full of pious crap.

[Nurse whimpering]

Oh God.

[Weeping] Oh God, no.

Okay, no, no, Patricia,
it's gonna be fine.

- Shut up!
- This young woman needs some comfort.

- Henry: Please allow me that.
- Are you a fucking preacher?

Olive: No, he just can't help himself.

He has to give comfort
to cute little mice.

He'd risk his life to
save a mouse in distress.

The fuck is that supposed to mean?

My wife is scared.
She's just saying things.

- Just saying things.
- I want both of you to shut up, okay?

My son used to have acne also.

There are things that you
can use to clear it up.

- Shit, lady.
- The main thing is

you have got to stop touching
your face. It aggravates it.

Okay, lady. Just shut up, all right?

Everyone just be quiet.

What the fuck?!

What the fuck are you doing?!

What the fuck did you take
your mask off for, you retard?!

Who's toying now, you dumb shit?!

Fuck!

Listen to me. Tape their
fucking mouths shut!

Yeah? Any of you fucking move,
you will get shot in your fucking head!

Tape their mouths shut! Fucking do it!

I'll be right back!

[Nurse praying rapidly]
Hail Mary, full of grace...

Hail Mary, full of grace.
The Lord is with thee...

[Growls] Come on.

[Growls] Stop it. Stop it.

Fuck!

Stop it. Stop with that.

[Ski Mask growls]

Olive, leave her alone.

Really. Who are you trying to impress?

You have known this girl
for less than an hour,

and you're trying to show
her what a saint you are?

- Enough. Enough!
- Mr. Perfect, that's who you are.

Hey, you want to know why our son left?

He couldn't live up to his father's
perfect record as a perfect man.

No, no, no. He left home because
she made his life unbearable!

Unbearable! You and your
terrible judgments!

Doctor: Both of you stop, please.

Do you know what your
saintly mother said to me

when my father committed
suicide? She said that

he committed a sin and was going
to hell. How's that for judgment?

How's that for Christian charity, Henry?

Jesus Christ, shut up!

Let's try and be calm.
Let's try and be quiet!

- Oh, shut up, you.
- Why are you so hateful, Olive?

Because you were too
goddamn simple for me, Henry.

- I should have left you years ago.
- Why the hell didn't you then?

I was going to, but he's dead.

Henry: Wouldn't have
lasted two weeks with him.

His drinking would've disgusted you.

And you wouldn't have lasted
two weeks with your little mouse.

She was half your age and dumb as a rock.

Well, aren't I a sap?

- Huh?
- Olive: We both are, Henry.

We're just both big saps.

Please. She won't be able to breathe.

- Doctor: Please.
- Just shut up.

[Bangs]

[Distant man] Put the gun down. Freeze!

In here! We're in here!

- Doctor: Help!
- Oh, Christ! Oh, fuck. Oh, Christ.

Oh, no.

Oh, no! Don't!

- [Whimpers]
- [Doors slam]

Drop your weapon! Drop your weapon!

- [Ski Mask cries out]
- [Sirens blare distantly]

[Sighs]

[Sobbing]

Officer: Okay, easy. Easy.

- [Sirens approaching]
- [Police radio chatter]

Henry: My guess is they
weren't gonna shoot us

until they finished stealing
whatever drugs they were looking for.

But...

a male nurse was coming in for his shift

and he called the police
before they could do the deed.

- Chris: Jesus.
- Yeah. Yeah.

But I...

I talked to the fellow afterward
and he told me that...

- Chris: Really?
- Henry: Yeah.

And he said he saw your mother's clothes
thrown all over one of the cubicles

and so he knew something was wrong.

- Chris: Is Mom okay?
- [Clatters]

I'm sorry. Say it again, Chris?

- Chris: Is Mom okay?
- Huh? Oh, no, no, she's fine.

She's fine. She's here.
You wanna talk to her?

- Chris: Yeah.
- It's Christopher. Wants to talk to you.

Hello, Chris.

- Chris: Mom, how are you doing?
- I'm doing fine, I'm alive.

[Chuckles]

- Chris: Are you gonna talk to someone?
- What do you mean?

Chris: You and Dad should
get some counseling.

Especially Dad. He's acting
like everything's fine,

but he's gonna crash
and get really depressed.

Well, it's just ducky you're worried
about your father at this point.

- Chris: Excuse me?
- Good night. I'm going to bed.

- Chris?
- Chris: What the hell, Dad? What the hell?

It's not you, son. Your mother's been
through a terrible ordeal.

She's not herself.

Chris: All I was saying to Mom

was that I think you
should get some counseling.

- Well...
- Chris: That's all I was saying.

Well, you know, I think
we're gonna do some traveling.

- Chris: Yeah?
- Maybe we'll come out and visit you.

- Huh?
- Chris: Sure.

Well, we'll see.

Your mother doesn't like to leave
her garden this time of year.

Chris: Sure.

[Clancy whimpering]

[Chain jangling, bowl clatters]

- Chris: Was that the dog?
- Yeah, having his midnight snack.

Chris: That's nice.

Look, son, we'll be fine.

Your mother and I'll
be... don't worry about us.

Chris: Okay, Pop.

I'm glad you're okay. Take
care of yourself, all right?

I will. Okay, good night.

Hey, buddy.

There's a good boy.

That's my good boy.

Good boy.

[Chuckles]

I know.

Ollie? Want something to help you sleep?

No, I do not want to get
started on those things.

Henry: Oh, they're mild
enough. You won't get hooked.

Well, you go ahead. Knock yourself out.

Henry: You like something
to help settle your stomach?

Yes, thank you. Please.

Thanks.

- Olive...
- Let's not.

Let's not talk about it, Henry.

Let's just erase it from our minds.

- [Sink running]
- I'll take this out.

- [Birds calling]
- [Instrumental music playing]

[Car door closes]

Henry, what are you doing?

Just looking at the bay, Ollie.
Is that all right?

[Sighs]

I saw Harmon at the post office.
Why don't you call him?

I will.

Would you turn that thing
off please? It's depressing.

- [Clicks, music stops]
- Listen, Henry.

I don't remember what I said that night,
but I could not stand that little nurse

and all her Catholic mambo jumbo.

And then you started to defend her
and I knew that you knew better.

You know what, Ollie?

I don't think in all the years
that we've been married...

in all the years...
I don't think you've ever...

ever apologized to me for anything.

[Flatly] Sorry, sorry, sorry.

I'm sorry I'm such a
hell of a rotten wife.

Olive...

listen.

We were so scared that night.

It was a situation

that no one should
ever, ever have to be in.

We were frightened.

We said some things.

You know?

We'll get over it.

In time.

- Hm?
- Mm.

Ollie, did you hit the dog?

Olive: He was running
straight at the wheels.

For God's sake, he's got
to learn sometime, Henry.

- All right, all right.
- You didn't even see him, Henry.

You could've run him right over.

Mm-hmm. Yup.

He misses the garden.

I saw a bunion on his right foot.

Mmm, uh-huh.

There's some swelling here on
his metatarsophalangeal joint.

How long has he had this?

I don't know. He never
let me near his feet.

I see a couple of corns.

You need to keep better care of his feet.

Well, that's your department, mister.

I'll be back, Henry.

How are you doing, Mrs. Kitteridge?

Doing just fine.

I wanted to tell you we have
a wonderful support group

that's meeting here tonight.

My son is visiting.

I'm not gonna leave him at home
to go talk to a bunch of strangers.

Oh, but he's welcome too.
It's for the whole family.

Thank you. We're not those types.

Well, we're here if you need us.

[Music fades]

I don't know how you
can stand that place, Ma.

I can't, Chris. It's lousy.

What can I do? I can't
take care of him on my own.

No, of course you can't.

He's a big guy. It would
be too much for you.

Well, I do what I can for him.

I take him food from home,

and when I'm there, I
give him an extra wash.

Just for the record, your
father's the only one in the place

that doesn't smell like a dirty sponge.

I'm thinking of selling your house.

All the upkeep. It's a lot of upkeep,
renting it to all the summer people.

Unless you want to keep it
in the family, of course.

No, you should go ahead and sell it.

We'll go over there tomorrow, see
if there's any furniture you want.

No, you can keep it.

Didn't what's-her-name clean you out?

No, she didn't and you can say her name.

She's not Satan.

[Chuckles]

Are you dating yet?

No. I'm in therapy.

You can't do both?

It's not advisable, no.

I'm sure you talk about
what a rotten mother I was.

We talk about a lot of things.

There's nothing wrong with your childhood.

The biggest trauma you ever had

was when Sparky got hit by a car.

It's not just about trauma.

I think it's stupid to dwell on the past.

Let's not have this
conversation, all right?

You had a normal happy
childhood, just for the record.

Okay, Ma, I'll let my therapist know.

Dad's sight is gone.

Not necessarily.

I'm afraid it is.

I flicked my fingers in front of
his eyes and he didn't respond.

Is that what you were doing
instead of talking to him?

I did talk to him.

How do you think he feels,

you flicking at him?

He wasn't even aware, Mom.
He barely responds.

- You don't know.
- The stroke really fried him.

You're not a doctor. You don't know.

- Excuse me?
- You're a podiatrist. It doesn't count.

- Thank you.
- Don't be offended. It's a fact.

I am offended.

That was a shitty thing to say.

And who are you to go snapping
your fingers in your father's face?

- Who the hell are you?
- I wasn't snapping my fingers, Jesus.

Did you even bother to
say three words to him?

- Yes!
- What?

Do you want a transcript?

I want to know what you said
that was so goddamn wonderful.

Nothing, Mom, nothing. I'm
a fucking idiot, all right?

No, you're just selfish.
You're just selfish.

You couldn't bother to come
right out and see your father.

You're the one who told me
that I didn't have to come.

Because it was very clear from your
calls you didn't really wish to.

Oh my God!

- Admit it. You know I'm right.
- No, Ma, no!

You need to admit that you
say these horrible things to me

that make me want to
crawl into a hole and die.

- So dramatic.
- You do, all the fucking time!

You never call me, so
how could that be true?

I don't want to fucking call you
because you make me feel like shit.

Stop with the horrible language.

Screw my language.

But you know what my shrink says?

He says it's a fucking
wonder I'm even standing

after all the crap you've said
to me when I was a kid.

- What crap? Give me an example.
- Abusive crap! Putting me down!

You say crazy destructive things

and you then act like
nothing fucking happened.

Just admit it for fucking once!
Admit that you were a horrible mother!

Oh, Christopher, please, you
have got to stop yelling at me.

I almost got murdered and I have
just lost my dearest companion.

- [Choked]
- I need someone to be nice to me.

Okay, Ma.

Okay.

There's ice cream.

Sure.

Yes, please.

[Airplane engines hum]

[Sighs]

Bye, Mom.

Goodbye. Take care.

Travel safe.

I will, Ma.

Attendant: Have your tickets out, please.

- Here you go.
- Thank you.

Attendant: Thank you.

Watch your step boarding
the aircraft, sir.

Thank you.

- [Clancy barks]
- All right, that's it. Let's go.

Attendant: Thank you.

Look who's here, Henry.

There you go.

Chris is on his way home.
He says he'll be back real soon.

Oh, he is just crazy about you, Henry.

Kept going on about what a
wonderful father you were.

[Mumbling incoherently]

Say it again, Henry.

Go ahead.

[Clancy whimpers]

- Hello, Olive.
- Cynthia.

I am so, so sorry about Henry.

Oh, nothing to be sorry about.

We all know these things can happen.

Not many are lucky enough to
just drop dead in their sleep.

How are you doing?

Just fine.

You know, my daughter Andrea,
she's got a degree in social work now.

I told her about everything
that happened to you

and she said she would
be glad to talk to you.

I remember Andrea in my class.

Not too bright with the math.

Glad she found her calling.

All right, Olive.

It's nice to see you.

_

Doyle, sweetheart, are you ready?

Sorry, Louise. He's got 20 more minutes.

He has an orthodontist appointment.

Detention is over in 20 minutes.

Really, Olive, don't be ridiculous.

You can have a seat while you wait.

[Doorbell chimes]

[Sighs]

Hello, Olive.

- Hello, Louise.
- Do come in.

I've set up tea in the living room.

You can leave your purse here if you like.

Can't stand a quiet house.

Tick, tick, tick.

I'm sure you miss having Henry there.

It's an adjustment.

He was always such a
kind and pleasant man,

a pure delight to be around.

Oh, I wouldn't go that far.

[Chuckles]

I've always enjoyed your candor, Olive.

Let me pour for you.

I hear that one of your young men

is staying at the same facility as Doyle.

- What young man?
- The one who tried to rob you?

If you ever pay him a visit,

I'm sure that Doyle would
also love to see you.

Why on earth would I pay him a visit?

There's something about
being held captive by someone,

you get attached.

Nobody believes this now, of course,

but Doyle is the sweetest soul alive.

Olive's voice: I had quite a day, Henry.

I went to see Louise Larkin
because she sent me a note.

I thought she was reaching out to me,

but it turns out she's
completely out of her mind.

She's not just crazy. She's wicked crazy.

She despises her husband.
She despises everyone.

The nicest word she
had to say about anyone

was about you, Henry.

She said you were the
kindest man in the world.

Which is true.

You were born kind.

You grew up kind.

And then you married
a beast and loved her.

You had a son who has
grown up complicated,

but at least he'll never
bludgeon a girl to death.

You were endlessly kind to townspeople
who came to you for their medicine.

You soothed their ills
in your clean, white coat.

You've had a good life, Henry.

You have.

You can die now, sweetheart.

It's all right. I'll be right here.

You won't have to do it alone.

Love you, Henry.

[Clock ticking]

Louise's voice: I hear
that one of your young men

is staying at the same facility as Doyle.

The one who tried to rob you?

If you pay him a visit...

Why on earth would I pay him a visit?

There's something about
being held captive by someone,

you get attached.

I haven't given that boy a second thought.

[Chuckles] I've always
enjoyed your candor, Olive.

How is Christopher?

He's living in California.
He's doing very well.

Does he get out here much to help you?

Olive's voice: Oh sure, sure
he has. Oh sure, sure he has.

Oh, come now.

He was always such a sensitive boy.

Just like Doyle.

[Chuckles] I'm sorry.

I'm not setting a very
good example for you.

What do you mean?

On how to cope with being pitied.

But still you're here for lessons.

Olive's voice: No, I came because
you wrote me a nice note, Louise.

I've always enjoyed your candor, Olive.

But did Christopher?

Chris's voice: It's a fucking
wonder I'm even standing after...

Henry's voice: You and
your terrible judgments!

Chris's voice: I don't
want to fucking call you

because you make me feel like shit!

- [Echoing]
- You've probably...

thought about killing yourself.

I hardly see how that
would solve anything.

Oh, but it would. It
would solve everything.

But the question is: how to do it?

You, I don't see you as a pills person.

Something more aggressive. The wrists...

but that would take so long.

I think I'll be going now, but I do
appreciate that you sent that note.

Oh.

You came for a nice dose of schadenfreude

and it didn't work.
