Yes.

Said she's at her parents' and you're invited to dinner.

Oh, yeah?

Thank you very much.

You're late, Henry.

I didn't know if you wanted me to come or not.

Where have you been?

You never come around anymore.

Dinner's almost ready.

Come on in.

[ Squealing, Muffled ]

Hello there.

Hello.

I'm very pleased to meet you.

Sit down.

[ Squealing Continues ]

[ Puppies Squealing, Suckling ]

It's Henry, isn't it?

Yes.

Mary tells me you're a very nice fellow.

What do you do?

Oh, I'm on vacation now.

What did you do?

- [ Mary Whimpering ] - Oh, I'm sorry.

[ Whimpering, Gagging ]

Well, I-I work at Lapelle's factor.

I'm —

I'm a printer.

Hen-Henry’s very clever at printing.

Yes, he sounds very clever.

[ Door Hinge Squeaking ]

I thought I heard a stranger.

We've got chicken tonight.

Strangest damn things. They're man-made.

Little damn things — smaller than my fist.

They're new!

I'm Bill.

Hello. I'm Henry.

Henry’s at Lapelle's factor.

Oh, printing's your business, huh?

Plumbing's mine. Thirty years.

I've seen this neighborhood change from pastures...

to the hellhole it is now.

- [ Train Rumbling, Approaching ] - I put ever damn pipe in this neighborhood.

- Dad! - Bill!

- [ Rumbling Grows Louder ] - People think pipes grow in their home.

Well, they sure as hell don't. Look at my knees!

[ Dog Barking ]

Look at my knees!

Bill, please.

- Are you hungry? - Bill.

The-The girls have heard this before...

but 14 years ago...

I had an operation on my arm here.

Doctors said I wouldn't be able to use it.

"Well, what the hell do they know?" I said.

And I rubbed it for a half hour ever day...

and I got so as I could move it a little.

And then I got so as I could turn a faucet.

And pretty soon, I had my arm back again.

Now I can't feel a damn thing in it.

All numb.

I-I — I-I'm afraid to cut it, you know?

Mary usually does the carving, but...

maybe tonight you'll do it, Henry.

All right with you?

Of course.

I'd be happy to.

Do I just, uh —

just cut them up like regular chickens?

Sure, just cut 'em up like regular chickens.

Over here.

Did you and Mary have sexual intercourse?

Uh — Why?

Did you?

Why are you asking me this question?

I have a very good reason.

And now I want you to tell me.

Oh, I-I'm very —

I love Mary.

Henry, I asked you if you and Mary had sexual intercourse.

Well, I don't — I don't think that's any of your business.

Henry!

I'm sorry.

You're in very bad trouble if you won't cooperate.

[ Breathing Heavily ]

Well, uh, I —

Mary!

[ Crying ] Mother!

Answer me!

I'm too nervous.

There's a baby. It's at the hospital.

Mom!

And you're the father.

But that's impossible. It's only been —

Mother, they're still not sure it is a baby.

It's premature, but there's a baby.

After the two of you are married, which should be very soon...

you can pick the baby up.

[ Murmurs ]

- [ Crying, Whimpering ] - Oh.

Ahh.

- Mom, he's got a nosebleed. - [ Henry Groans ]

Oh.

[ Sobbing ]

I'll get ice.

[ Sniffles ]

You don't mind, do you, Henry?

I-I mean about getting married. [ Sobs ]

Oh, no.

All I need is a decent night's sleep!

Why don't you just stay home?

I'll do what I want to do.

And you better take real good care of things while I'm gone!
