( theme music playing )

( engine rattling )

OW!

ALL RIGHT.
COME ON.

( shouts )
BARB'S HOUSE.
MEETING.

NOW!

DID YOU HEAR HER
ROTOTILLING AT 6:00
IN THE MORNING?

IT'S LIKE
A GIANT CAVITY BEING
FILLED IN THE BACKYARD.

AND WHEN SHE'S
FINISHED WITH HER SECTION,
SHE WANTS TO DO OURS.

INCOMING.

OKAY.
THAT MUCH CLOSE
TO THE GRASS--

- NO MORE
DIRT IN DIAPERS.
- MORNING, MARGIE.

- MORNING.
- CLOGS, PLEASE.

( water runs )

ALL RIGHT.

LEE HATCHER SENT OVER
THE WILLS TO SIGN.

- OH, DO WE HAVE TO?
- YES, WE HAVE TO.

THE ONE I HAVE NOW SAYS
CINDY GETS CUSTODY
OF MY CHILDREN.

- ( sighs )
- AND UNTIL YOU
SIGN YOURS,

YOUR CHILDREN
WILL GO TO WHOMEVER
THE LAW DECIDES.

WE HAVE NO CHOICE.
SO THIS IS WHERE WE ARE.

IT'S A, UH,
MY-DEATH-PLUS-TWO FORMULA.

IF ONE OF US DIES,
THE KIDS GO TO BILL.

IF ONE OF US DIES
AND BILL DIES,

KIDS FOLLOW THE RULE
AND GO TO SECOND WIFE;

WITH THE EXCEPTION
OF SECOND WIFE--
MEANING YOU, NICKI--

IF YOU DIE AND BILL DIES,
YOU CAN'T GIVE YOUR KIDS
TO SECOND WIFE,

BECAUSE THAT'S YOU,
AND YOU'RE ALREADY DEAD,

SO YOU PASS YOURS ON
TO FIRST WIFE, ME.
GOT IT?

ME, BILL-- NICKI.
YOU, BILL-- NICKI.

NICKI, BILL-- YOU,
ON ACCOUNT OF NICKI
ALREADY BEING DEAD.

SEE?
SIMPLE SIMPLE.

WELL, IF ANYTHING
HAPPENS,

I KNOW THE KIDS
WILL BE TAKEN CARE OF.

THIS IS A BIG DAY
FOR US.

WE'VE COME A LONG WAY
TOGETHER.

I AM SO PROUD OF US.

NOT THAT MANY PEOPLE
ARE THIS LUCKY.

HUH-UH.
ALL RIGHT, JUST SIGN YOURS
AND GIVE THEM TO BILL,

AND HE'LL PUT THEM
IN THE SAFETY DEPOSIT BOX.

I AM HAPPY.

I LOVE YOU BOTH SO MUCH.

YOU'RE OVERHEATED.
PUT ON A HAT.

- ( classical music playing )
- ( people murmuring )

Man: HEY, HAS MY GUEST,
BILL HENRICKSON,
ARRIVED YET?

- YES, HE'S SITTING
OVER THERE.
- AH, YES.

Man £2:
STUART, HOW ARE YOU?

PLEASE, DON'T GET UP.
GOOD TO SEE YOU.

- HEY, STU.
- HOW ARE YOU?

- UH, BILL HENRICKSON.
- MR. KIMBALL.

- UH, STUART, PLEASE.
- OH.

- I'M SORRY I'M LATE.
- OH, I HAVEN'T BEEN
HERE VERY LONG.

- PLEASE, SIT SIT SIT.
- THANK YOU.

I WAS UH, DELIGHTED
THAT YOU ACCEPTED
MY INVITATION.

- Bill: WELL...
- I'VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD
TO THIS FOR SOME TIME.

GOOD MORNING,
MR. KIMBALL.

HI, TAMMY.
WOULD YOU BRING US
TWO JUICES, PLEASE?

OF COURSE.

- WELL, UH, YOU PLAY?
- GOLF? UH...

WELL, MY WIFE AND I
USED TO PLAY.

- I'M MORE THE
HUNTER-FISHERMAN TYPE.
- ( CHUCKLES )

OH, THANK YOU,
TAMMY.

- WE'LL ORDER
IA MINUTE.
- OKAY.

SO, BILL, UM...

DO YOU KNOW WHY
I ASKED YOU TO MEET ME?

NO, SIR, I REALLY DON'T.

BILL, I AM THE CHAIRMAN
OF RECRUITMENT

FOR THE SALT LAKE
LEADERSHIP LEAGUE.

WE'RE A GROUP OF BUSINESSMEN
WHO COME TOGETHER

TO PROMOTE THE CITY
AND THE STATE.

OH, I'M VERY WELL-VERSED
IN THE LEAGUE, SIR.

I-- I'M AN ADMIRER.

YOU'RE NOT JUST A BUSINESS
NETWORK, YOU'RE TRUE
PUBLIC BENEFACTORS.

WELL, THANK YOU.
HMM.

AND WE'RE IMPRESSED
WITH YOU, TOO.

WE WOULD LIKE
TO INVITE YOU
TO BE A MEMBER,

AND I WOULD LIKE
TO BE YOUR SPONSOR.

( exhales )

- YOU'LL HAVE TO EXCUSE ME,
SIR. I'M-- I'M--
- WELL...

I'M VERY FLATTERED.

I'M HONORED.

I JUST WONDER IF--

IF I'VE GOT THE TIME.
I'M--

WELL, MY BUSINESS IS
IN ITS INFANCY.

NURTURING IT TO WHERE
IT WANTS TO BE IS--

WELL, IT'S-- IT'S A--
IT'S A FULL-TIME JOB.

WELL, WE DON'T
INVITE MANY CANDIDATES
TO THE TABLE, BILL.

I DON'T--

I DON'T QUITE KNOW
WHAT TO SAY.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT:

DON'T SAY ANYTHING
FOR THE MOMENT.

LET'S GET
TO KNOW EACH OTHER,

AND THEN WE'LL SEE
WHERE WE STAND, HMM?

- FAIR ENOUGH.
- ( chuckles )

- GOOD MORNING,
MR. HENRICKSON.
- MORNING.

THERE'S
AN ERNEST HOLLOWAY
HERE TO SEE YOU.

HE INSISTED.
HE'S OVER IN
HOUSEWARES.

THANK YOU, WENDY.

THOSE ARE ALL THE SHARES
I'VE BEEN ISSUED,

GOING BACK TO 1962.

WE TALKED
ABOUT YOU AT THE UEB
MEETING YESTERDAY.

THEY JOKED FOR OVER
A HALF AN HOUR--

ALL THE WAYS THEY'D LIKE
TO SEE YOU GONE.

THEY ALSO TALKED
ABOUT NEGOTIATING
A CONTRACT WITH NASA

TO SELL CLAY
FROM ONE OF THE MINES
WE OWN IN MOAB

FOR THE HEAT SHIELDS
ON THE SHUTTLE.

THEY DON'T BELIEVE
WE EVEN WENT TO THE MOON,

YET THEY'RE IN BUSINESS
WITH THE AGENCY

THAT DIDN'T GO THERE.

I'LL TAKE THESE
UEB SHARES TO MY LAWYER
FOR AN OPINION

AND SEE WHETHER
YOU CAN SELL THEM
AND WHETHER I CAN BUY THEM.

HOW MUCH DO YOU THINK
THOSE THINGS ARE WORTH, HUH?

I DON'T KNOW.
WE'LL HAVE TO FIGURE OUT
SOME VALUATION PROCESS.

- MMM.
- THANK YOU, ERNEST.

THANK YOU.

YOU HAVE NO IDEA
HOW THIS INFORMATION
HELPS ME.

( water running )

RHONDA'S COMING
THIS AFTERNOON.

- COMING HERE?
- MM-HMM.

- FOR HOW LONG?
- SPRING BREAK.

SHE'S REPRESENTING
JUNIPER CREEK

IN A DRAMA COMPETITION
AT THE U.

- WHERE IS SHE STAYING?
- SARAH.

WITH NICKI.

IT'S EASY TO SIT AROUND
AND PASS JUDGMENT.

IT'S MORE DIFFICULT
AND MORE MEANINGFUL
TO LOVE SOMEONE.

MOM, I SPENT THE
ENTIRE AFTERNOON WITH HER
AT WAYNE'S BIRTHDAY PARTY.

SHE'S LIKE
FROM ANOTHER WORLD.

AND I THINK
SHE STOLE MY iPOD.

WELL, MAYBE THE WEEK
SHE SPENDS WITH US WILL
HAVE A POSITIVE EFFECT.

LET HER SEE HOW A NORMAL,
HEALTHY FAMILY CAN LIVE.

( phone rings )

HELLO.

OH, HI.
YEAH, HOLD ON.

( presses phone key )

BEN, BRYNN'S
ON THE PHONE.

TELL HER I'LL
CALL HER BACK.

YOU WANT ME
TO LIE AGAIN?

NO, THANK YOU.
YOU DO YOUR OWN DIRTY WORK.

SARAH, COME ON.

BRYNN, CAN
HE CALL YOU BACK?

- EVERYTHING OKAY?
- I DON'T WANT TO TALK
TO HER RIGHT NOW.

WHY?

I THINK MAYBE
WE'RE MOVING TOO FAST.

DOES THAT SOUND STUPID?

NOT AT ALL.

HOLD BACK, BENNY.

PLEASE HOLD BACK.
YOU'LL REGRET IT
IF YOU DON'T.

( sighs )
I WISH I'D BEEN
AS SMART AS YOU.

- I DON'T KNOW
IF I'M THAT SMART.
- YOU ARE.

I WASN'T.

IT WAS JUST SOME BOY
FROM THE APARTMENTS
NEXT DOOR.

YOU'RE LUCKY.
YOU WERE TAUGHT
IT'S SOMETHING SACRED.

YEAH, IT IS.

BARB, CAN I TALK TO YOU
FOR A SECOND?

OH, HONEY, CLOSE THAT DOOR.
THAT FERTILIZER SMELL
IS LETHAL.

SORRY.

- UM...
- OH--

OH, SORRY.

SO...

I LOVE WHAT YOU SAID
THIS MORNING--

I LOVED IT--
ABOUT HOW FAR WE'VE COME,

BUT CAN I HAVE MY KIDS
GO TO YOU INSTEAD OF NICKI?

MARGIE, WHY WOULD
YOU SAY THAT?

WE LOVE NICKI.

- WELL, SHE'S
A WONDERFUL MOTHER.
- OH,

IT'S NOT ABOUT
HER BEING BAD,
IT'S JUST--

- YOU'RE SO GOOD AND--
- ( sighs )

I MEAN IT.
LESTER AND AARON

REACH FOR YOU
BEFORE THEY REACH FOR ME.

I THINK THAT'S MORE
IMPORTANT THAN ANYTHING.

( sighs )
THEY SHOULD GO TO YOU.
IT'S WHAT I WANT.

UH, WELL...

- HOW ARE YOU
GONNA TELL HER?
- ( sighs )

NO, I CAN'T TELL HER.

- THAT WOULD HURT
HER FEELINGS.
- MM-HMM.

BUT MAYBE I COULD JUST
GET YOUR PERMISSION

TO TALK TO THE ATTORNEY
AND HAVE IT CHANGED.

AND JUST TELL HIM
IT'S CONFIDENTIAL.

( whispers )
TOTALLY CONFIDENTIAL.

- YOU WANTED TO SEE ME
ABOUT YOUR WILL?
- Nicki: YES.

MMM, BARB IS
A WONDERFUL WOMAN,

A WONDERFUL MOTHER.
WE'RE VERY CLOSE.

BUT I CAN'T LEAVE
MY CHILDREN TO HER.

IN THE EVENT OF MY DEATH
AND BILL'S DEATH,

I'D LIKE MY CHILDREN
TO GO TO MY PARENTS
AT JUNIPER CREEK.

SO REMOVE BARB
FROM YOUR WILL?

Don:
STUART KIMBALL?
I MEAN--

- Bill: HE'S A REAL
NICE GUY, DON, REAL NICE.
- PRODUCT RECALL ON A SINK?

HONEY, UH,
BILL MET WITH, UH,
STUART KIMBALL.

HE'S BEEN
INVITED TO JOIN
THE LEADERSHIP LEAGUE.

- DREAM COME TRUE.
- GUYS, DO YOU KNOW
WHAT THIS MEANS?

FIRST MEMBER SAYS,
"I WANT TO LAY FIBER OPTIC
CABLE ALONG THE FRONT."

SECOND MEMBER SAYS,
"I'VE GOT A BANK.

I'LL LEND YOU
THE MONEY FOR IT."
OR A THIRD MEMBER SAYS,

"I WANNA BUILD
A 20-STORY HOTEL."

AND THE FOURTH MEMBER
SAYS, "I'LL SELL YOU
THE MATERIALS."

AND THE FIFTH MEMBER SAYS,
"NO, THANKS. YOU'RE
A POLYGAMIST."

- AND NOBODY LIVES
HAPPILY EVER AFTER.
- COME ON.

WE SPEND OUR WHOLE LIVES
TAP DANCING.

THIS IS JUST ONE MORE
"FOR INSTANCE."

- THE LEAGUE IS
A SWARM OF LDS.
- WE JUGGLE.

- YOU'VE BEEN IN ROTARY
FOR HOW MANY YEARS?
- LONG TIME.

PEG, YOU'VE BEEN
CHAIRPERSON OF PEO
FOR HOW LONG?

- I RESIGNED.
- I SEE THE BIGGER PICTURE.

WE PROVIDE DECENT JOBS
FOR DECENT PEOPLE,

AND I'M PROUD OF THAT.

BUT I WANNA BE MORE THAN--
THAN JUST A STORE,

AND THE LEAGUE MAKES
THAT POSSIBLE.

SOMEDAY, I'D LIKE
TO GIVE GRANTS,

SUPPORT INSTITUTIONS,

AWARD SCHOLARSHIPS.

LOOK AT THAT
McDONALD'S WIDOW.
LOOK AT PAUL NEWMAN.

PEG'S BECOME
A PURIST.

SHE WILL NOT
VOLUNTARILY BELONG

TO ANY ORGANIZATION
THAT DOES NOT ACCEPT US.

DON,

THIS COULD BE HUGE.

( doorbell rings )

- MRS. HENRICKSON?
- YES.

I'M WENDELL PELLER,
THE PHOTOGRAPHER FROM
"THE TRIBUNE."

- ( sighs )
- FOR THE MOTHER-
OF-THE-YEAR LAYOUT?

OH, GOOD NIGHT.
I AM SO SORRY.

- I COMPLETELY FORGOT.
- MM-HMM.

WELL, YEAH.
YEAH, SURE.
COME IN, COME IN.

WELL, WE'LL JUST HAVE
TO DO CATCH-AS-CATCH-CAN.
WHERE DO YOU WANT US?

- MAYBE IN THE FRONT YARD?
- ACTUALLY, NO.

INSIDE'S BETTER.
THE KITCHEN'S GOOD THAT'S
WHERE MOST FAMILIES REALLY LIVE.

- THIS WAY?
- NO, HERE.

WE LIVE
IN THE DINING ROOM.

IT'S A BIT FORMAL,
BUT IT'S WHO WE ARE.

IT'S A-- AWFULLY
BIG TABLE.

WE DO A LOT
OF HOBBIES HERE--

MODEL SHIPS, PLANES,
CARS, UH, PUZZLES.

- BUSY, YOU KNOW?
- MMM.

TANCY, WHY DON'T YOU GO UP
AND GET BEN AND SARAH?

( sighs )
OKAY.

MAY I OFFER YOU
SOMETHING TO DRINK?

( shutter clicking )

( chuckles )

SO YOU VOLUNTEER

AT AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY
AND HOSPICE?

- YES.
- ( door slides )

Wendell:
HEY, WHO ARE THESE
LITTLE GUYS?

THIS IS MY NEIGHBOR
NICKI.

AND THESE ARE HER SONS,
WAYNE AND RAYMOND.

- WELL, HI THERE.
- Wayne: HELLO.

UH, WE CAME BY TO BORROW
SOME HOT DOGS.

- IN THE MEAT DRAWER.
- AREN'T WE GOING TO BE
IN THE PICTURE, BARBARA?

OH, THIS IS JUST
FOR FAMILY, LITTLE GUY.

( Wendell chuckles )

MMM, OKAY.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S HAVE
A NICE BIG SMILE.

HERE WE GO.

( keyboard clicking )

Roman:
HOW LONG HAS THIS
BEEN GOING ON?

I DON'T KNOW.
THIS IS THIS MORNING.

( keystrokes continue )

THAT JUDAS.

YEAH, THAT'S ENOUGH.
GET IT OUT OF HERE.

( sighs )

IT'S A PLEASURE
TO MEET YOU.

HI, IT'S NICE TO MEET YOU.
UM, IT'S WHAT I SAID
ON THE PHONE,

I NEED TO CHANGE MY WILL.
I'D LIKE TO CHANGE IT

- FROM NICKI TO BARB--
WHO GETS MY CHILDREN.
- Woman: UH, LEE,

JUDGE WINSLOW'S CLERK
IS ON THE PHONE.

- COULD YOU EXCUSE ME
A MOMENT?
- MM-HMM.

I'M SORRY I DIDN'T GET
TO MEET YOU EARLIER.

I HAVE THAT
NEW WILL FOR YOU.

WOW!
THAT'S FAST.

UM, UH...

OH, HMM, NO,
THIS ISN'T RIGHT.

UH, I WANT
TO LEAVE THEM TO BARB,
NOT TAKE THEM FROM HER.

WAIT. I'M NOT NICKI,
I'M MARGIE.

OH.

THE COMPOUND?

YES.

I WANT MY KIDS TO GO
TO MY MOTHER.

WHY?
WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT?

IT'S THIS PLACE.
IT'S THE BAD VALUES.

UM, NOT YOUR BAD VALUES.
YOU HAVE FINE VALUES

MOST OF THE TIME.
IT'S THE CULTURE HERE.

- CULTURE?!
- THE DISRESPECT,
THE LOOSE MORALS.

I WANT
MY CHILDREN RAISED
IN AN ENVIRONMENT

WHERE GOD
ISN'T UNDER ATTACK,

WHERE GOD
HASN'T BEEN TAKEN
OUT OF THE SCHOOLS,

WHERE THE TEN COMMANDMENTS
ARE SHOWN IN PUBLIC.

WE AGREED
THAT ALL THE KIDS
WOULD STAY TOGETHER.

SO IF I DIE AND BILL DIES
AND YOU GET MY CHILDREN,

AND THEN YOU DIE,
THEN ALL THE KIDS GO
TO THE COMPOUND?

- IT'S WHAT I WANT.
- WELL, IT'S NOT
WHAT I WANT.

LET'S JUST AGREE
TO DISAGREE.

NICKI, I DO NOT
WANT THE KIDS TO GO
TO THE COMPOUND!

- ( dialing )
- ALL THE KIDS?
OR JUST YOUR KIDS?

ANY KIDS,
AND CERTAINLY
NOT MINE.

AND MINE
INCLUDE YOURS.

LEE HATCHER, PLEASE.

LEE, BARB HENRICKSON.

I NEED ANOTHER WILL
SENT OVER,

TO ME.

YES, AND AND
PLEASE JUST

LEAVE IT BLANK
WHO I'M LEAVING BEN,
SARAH AND TANCY TOO.

MM-HMM.

NO, I'LL-- I'LL FILL IT
OUT LATER.

- YES. ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU.
- Raymond:COME HERE,
COME HERE.

- ALL RIGHT, YOU TOO. BYE.
- Raymond: HURRY UP, WAYNE.

BARB, YOU'RE
GONNA LEAVE ME OUT
OF THIS, RIGHT, BARB?

"VALUES"?
OH, THE COMPOUND
IS A CESSPOOL.

NO NEED TO BRING ME
INTO IT, RIGHT?

NOW, I MEAN,
THERE IS NO WAY-- UGH--
ON GOD'S GREEN EARTH

- THAT I AM
GONNA GIVE MY CHILDREN--
- NO REASON FOR NICKI TO KNOW

THAT I CHANGED MINE,
RIGHT?

HEY, LEE.

- THANKS FOR
SQUEEZING ME IN.
- NO PROBLEM. HAVE A SEAT.

UH, I HOPE I'M NOT
OUT OF BOUNDS.

- ARE YOU KIDDING?
WHAT IS IT?
- YOUR WIVES.

EVERY ONE OF THEM'S
COME BY TO CHANGE
HER WILL.

IT'S A REVOLVING
DOOR OUT THERE.

THE POST-MORTEM
PLACEMENT OF A CHILD'S
AN IMPORTANT THING,

BUT HELP ME OUT.
I'M GOING A LITTLE
NUTSO HERE.

- I'LL DEAL WITH IT.
- YOU'RE SURE?

PIECE O' CAKE.
NOW, MORE IMPORTANTLY...

WELL, YOUR AGED FRIEND
IS FREE TO SELL
THESE STOCKS.

THESE SHARES PREDATE
ANY REISSUED BUYBACKS

AND ANY UEB
FIRST REFUSAL,

SO HE'S FREE TO SELL,
YOU'RE FREE TO BUY.

AND THIS GETS ME HIS SEAT
ON THE UEB COUNCIL?

YOU BUY HOLLOWAY'S SHARES--
HIS SEAT INURES TO YOU.

AS YOUR ATTORNEY--
WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS,
MAY I ASK?

- IT'S BUSINESS.
- AS YOUR FRIEND--
BALONEY.

- I KNOW WHAT I'M DOING.
- I'D RECOMMEND YOU
DON'T DO IT.

AS YOUR CLIENT,
I RECOMMEND YOU FIGURE OUT

HOW THE HECK
WE'RE GONNA PUT SOME
VALUE ON ALL THESE.

WELL, VALUATION
ON THE WORTH OF A PIECE

OF THE UEB TRUST--

IT'S GONNA TAKE TIME--
COUPLE MONTHS.

FINE.
NO RUSH.

( panting )

- HEY.
- WHY HAVEN'T YOU
CALLED BACK?

- ARE YOU MAD AT ME?
- NO.

THEN WHAT'S THE MATTER?

NOTHING. I JUST NEEDED
TO TAKE A RUN.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA
TURN INTO ONE OF
THOSE CREEPS

WHO DON'T CALL,
ARE YOU?

YOU KNOW
I'D NEVER DO THAT.

LOOK, I'M ALL SWEATY.
- I DON'T CARE.

IS THAT BEN?

Margene:
AND THAT MUST
BE BRYNN.

- WHAT DO WE DO?
- THIS.

- ( loud honking )
- NICKI! STOP IT.

- STOP IT, STOP IT.
- ( honks )

- THIS IS WHY MOTHERS
SHOULDN'T WORK.
- WE DON'T WORK.

- BARB SHOULD BE AT HOME.
- WE'RE AT HOME.

HI.

UH, WE TOLD YOUR MOM
WE'D PICK YOU UP.

- SHE HAD TONS
OF PAPERS TO GRADE.
- OH.

UH, WELL, OKAY...

- EVERYBODY,
THIS IS BRYNN.
- Margene: HI.

I'M LUCY.
THIS IS ETHEL.

THESE ARE MY NEIGHBORS.

SO WHERE CAN WE
TAKE YOU, BRYNN?

UM, SANDY POINTS DRIVE
OFF SOUTH STATE.

- THANKS.
- MM-HMM.

- SORRY ABOUT THE SOD.
- OH, THAT'S OKAY.

WATCH OUT FOR GRUBS.

I LIKE YOUR SKIRT.
TARGET?

- UM, GAP.
- Margene: OH.

Brynn:
SO YOU KNOW
BEN'S MOM AND DAD?

- THEY'RE SUPER NICE.
- DEPENDING.

- I HAVEN'T MET THEM YET.
- OH, WE KNOW.

- BUT I'D LIKE TO.
- YOU SHOULD INTRODUCE
THEM, BENNY.

YES, YOU SHOULD.

( door opens )

( clears throat )

HI, HONEY.
HOW WAS YOUR RUN?

FINE.

- THANKS FOR
THE RIDE, MARGIE.
- MM-HMM.

SO WE MET BRYNN.

YOU DID?

HMM, YEAH.
AND SHE WANTS
TO MEET YOU.

OH.

WELL, I'VE SET IT UP
THREE DIFFERENT TIMES
WITH BEN,

AND EVERY TIME
HE'S WEASELED OUT
OF IT, SO--

OH, HE'S PROBABLY
AFRAID FOR YOU
TO MEET HER.

( whispering )
THEY WERE KISSING
BEHIND THE TRACK.

REALLY KISSING.

SO DID YOU SAY SOMETHING
TO HIM ABOUT IT?

NO. I'M NOT SURE
WE SHARE THE SAME VALUES
ON THESE THINGS.

OH, GET OFF IT,
NICKI.

- I'M GOING.
- NO, HEY!

- WHAT IS THIS
REALLY ABOUT?
- ( sighs )

ALL RIGHT.

IF I DIE AND BILL DIES,
I DOUBT YOUR COMMITMENT
TO THE PRINCIPLE,

AND THAT'S THE WAY I WANT
MY CHILDREN RAISED,
PURE AND SIMPLE.

- I LOVE YOUR CHILDREN
WITH ALL MY HEART.
- I KNOW YOU DO,

BUT THE REASON YOU'RE ABLE
TO GO OFF AND WORK IS

- 'CAUSE MARGIE AND I
ARE HERE AS BACKSTOPS.
- ( sighs )

I KNOW YOU HATE
TO HEAR THIS,

BUT WOMEN ARE DESIGNED
TO TEND TO THE CHICKS
IN THE NEST

WHILE MEN GO OUT EARLY
TO GATHER WORMS.

IF WOMEN GO OUT
TO GATHER WORMS,

WHO WILL TAKE CARE
OF THE CHICKS?

NICKI, THAT'S JUST NOT
THE WORLD WE LIVE IN.

WELL, IT'S THE WORLD
WE SHOULD LIVE IN.

ONE MOTHER CAN'T
DO IT ALONE.

IT REALLY DOES TAKE
A VILLAGE, BARB.

Adaleen:
EGGS GIVE HER HIVES,

AND SHE WON'T DRINK
REGULAR MILK BY ITSELF.

IT'S TOO RICH FOR HER.
SO MIX IT WITH THE POWDERED,

AND USE LOTS OF ICE.

- SHE LIKES IT COLD.
- IT SMELLS LIKE CAT.

- DO YOU HAVE CATS?
- NO.

- I SMELL CAT.
- SHE'S ALLERGIC.

YOU SHOULD KEEP THESE
IN THE REFRIGERATOR.

THEY CAN
DEVELOP BACTERIA.

- IS SARAH HOME?
- I THINK SO.

I'LL GO SEE.

WHY DON'T YOU GO
UPSTAIRS AND UNPACK?

ADALEEN, UH, DID YOU
TAKE YOUR VITAMINS?

- YES.
- 'CAUSE YOU FORGET.

WELL, I DIDN'T.

I DON'T KNOW
HOW YOU DEAL WITH HER.

I LOVE HER,
AND WE'RE ALL EQUALS.

BUT LAST NIGHT
I DID DREAM

I WAS TRYING TO PUSH HER
OUT THE CAR DOOR

WHILE DRIVING ALONG
AT A PRETTY QUICK CLIP.

MAMA,

WE'RE MAKING UP
OUR WILLS,

AND IF SOMETHING WERE
TO HAPPEN TO BILL AND I,

WOULD YOU BE
THE LEGAL GUARDIAN
OF MY CHILDREN?

CERTAINLY NOT.

YOUR CHILDREN GO
TO YOUR SISTERWIVES.
YOU KNOW THAT.

WELL, I'M NOT SURE
THAT BARB WILL CONTINUE
TO LIVE THE PRINCIPLE.

- WHAT ABOUT MARLENE?
- MARGENE.

NOT AN OPTION.

NICOLETTE,
WORK IT OUT.

BE HAPPY.

YOU WERE ALWAYS
SUCH A HAPPY BABY.

ACTUALLY, NO.
THAT WAS CHRISTA.

ANYWAY, ENOUGH.
I HAVE TO GO.

OH, AND MAKE
SURE THAT RHONDA'S
DOWN AT THE UNIVERSITY

BY 10:00
TOMORROW MORNING.

I DON'T KNOW
HOW SHE'LL DO.
SHE'S NO ROMA DOWNEY.

Rhonda:
"I HAVE BECOME
SUCH A LIAR.

I NEVER USED
TO LIE ABOUT ANYTHING
ONCE UPON A TIME.

NOW I HAVE TO LIE,
ESPECIALLY TO MYSELF.

I'VE NEVER UNDERSTOOD
ANYTHING ABOUT IT, EXCEPT...

THAT ONE DAY
LONG AGO

I FOUND I COULD NO LONGER
CALL MY SOUL MY OWN."

- WOW.
- MMM.

THAT WAS REALLY GOOD.
WHAT PLAY IS THAT FROM?

"LONG DAY'S
JOURNEY INTO NIGHT"
BY EUGENE O'NEILL.

HE WAS A CATHOLIC.

IT'S ABOUT A FAMILY
WHO'S MISERABLE BECAUSE
GOD'S PUNISHING THEM.

WE READ THAT
LAST YEAR,

AND THAT'S NOT
WHAT MY TEACHER SAID
IT WAS ABOUT.

OH, YES.
MARY TYRONE,
THE CHARACTER I'M PLAYING,

CAN'T PRAY.
SATAN TOOK A HOLD OF HER.

SO NOW SHE'S
A DRUG ADDICT.

SO IF I WIN
HERE, I'M GOING
TO WASHINGTON, DC,

FOR THE NATIONALS.
AND THEN I'M GONNA
TAKE A BUS

TO NEW YORK CITY
TO BECOME A PROFESSIONAL
ACTRESS.

REALLY?
HOW ARE YOU
GONNA DO THAT?

WELL, I'M GONNA LIVE
AT A DORMITORY HOUSE

WITH A LOT
OF OTHER GIRLS
WHO ARE ACTRESSES,

AND THAT WAY I'LL BE
PROTECTED FROM SIN.

SO YOU'RE
JUST GONNA LEAVE
AND NOT GO TO SCHOOL?

I HAVEN'T GONE
TO SCHOOL SINCE I WAS
PREMARITALLY PLACED.

WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?

I'M GETTING SEALED
IN SEPTEMBER.

- AS IN "MARRIED"?
- TO THE PROPHET.

ON MY BIRTHDAY.

( Bill sighs, moans )

- Barb: MY LORD.
- ( moans )

- I LOVE YOU.
- YES, YOU DO.
AND VERY WELL.

( laughs )

YOU KNOW, YOU HAVEN'
SAID ANYTHING

ABOUT THE LEADERSHIP
LEAGUE.

- OH, IT'S
KIND OF AMAZING.
- YOU KNOW,

IT'S TRULY AMAZING.
I MEAN,

I APPLIED WHAT,
EIGHT, NINE YEARS AGO,

GOT THAT REJECTION LETTER,
AND NOW THEY WANT ME.

WELL, AREN'T WE
THE PERFECT LDS COUPLE.

ME, MOTHER OF THE YEAR,
AND YOU ON THE LEAGUE.

- WE WANTED IT
SO BADLY.
- MMM.

BUT DO WE STILL?

WELL, I FEEL LIKE
WE SHOULD, DON'T YOU?

WELL, HONEY,
WE HAD TEMPLE
RECOMMENDS THEN.

WE'RE NOT
THOSE PEOPLE NOW.

YEAH, BUT WE STILL
LIVE IN THE WORLD.

WELL, THIS IS WHY
WE DECIDED NOT TO LIVE
A PUBLIC LIFE

WHEN WE COULD HELP IT.
IT'S LIKE LIVING A LIE.

BUT WE'RE ALWAYS TELLING
LITTLE LIES, ALWAYS.

WE LIVE
A LIFE THAT SOCIETY
DOESN'T ACCEPT.

I DON'T KNOW
WHICH LIES ARE
GOOD LIES

- AND WHICH LIES ARE BAD.
- IT'S NOT SIMPLE.

I DON'T THINK YOU KNOW
HOW MUCH PRESSURE

IT PUTS ON ME
WITH NICKI AND MARGIE--

ME BEING OUT THERE
LIKE THAT.

WELL, WHAT ABOUT
MOTHER OF THE YEAR?

WHAT MAKES THAT SO DIFFERENT?
IS THAT A GOOD LIE?

BEEHIVE MOTHER OF THE YEAR
IS A SILLY LITTLE EVENT--

ONE NIGHT AS CINDERELLA
AT THE GOVERNOR'S MANSION

AND THEN PFFT.
IT'S NOTHING.

I THOUGHT
YOU OF ALL PEOPLE
WOULD BE HAPPY.

HONEY, I AM HAPPY,

FOR YOU.
BUT FOR THE FAMILY,

IT'S COMPLICATED.

( sighs )

Holloway:
HANNAH, WHERE ARE
THE BATTERIES?

SUPPOSED TO BE
IN THAT DRAWER.

I CAN'T HEAR
WITHOUT NEW BATTERIES.

NEOMA, THOSE BEEFSTEAKS
ARE A HEAVY PLUMP TOMATO.

I TOLD YOU 100 TIMES,
THEY NEED STAKING.

YES, DEAR.

- PAUL GANNETT.
- Girl: PAUL! WHOO! WHOO!

- Judge: DEBBIE VALANCE.
- Girl: ALL RIGHT!

AND LASTLY,

- TERESA MURDOCH.
- Guy: ALL RIGHT, TERESA!

- WHOO-HOO!
- Judge:CONGRATULATIONS
TO EVERYONE

WHO'S MOVING ON
TO THE NEXT ROUND.

WE'D LIKE TO THANK ALL
WHO PARTICIPATED.

WE'RE SORRY NOT EVERYONE
CAN BE MOVING ON,

BUT GOOD LUCK,
AND HOPEFULLY, WE'LL SEE YOU
AGAIN NEXT YEAR.

- YES?
- THERE WAS MISTAKE.

THERE MUST BE
A RHONDA VOLMER
ON THE LIST.

NO NO.
NO RHONDA VOLMER.

IS IT BECAUSE
OF HOW I'M DRESSED,
WHERE I'M FROM?

- IT HAS TO BE,
BECAUSE I'M GOOD.
- OF COURSE NOT.

EVERY CONTESTANT
IS JUDGED STRICTLY
ON THEIR MERITS.

AS I WAS SAYING,
YOU'RE ALL WINNERS.

OW!

Heather:
I TOLD HER THAT I VOLUNTEERED
ON ORRIN HATCH'S CAMPAIGN.

SHE DIDN'T KNOW WHO HE WAS.
SO I SAID THAT HE WAS
IN THE SENATE.

AND SHE DIDN'T KNOW
WHAT THAT WAS EITHER.

SO I TESTED HER,
AND SHE'S NEVER HEARD

OF DICK CHENEY OR IRAQ.

I ASKED HER IF SHE KNEW
WHO GEORGE BUSH WAS.

SHE SAID
SHE WASN'T SURE,
BUT SAID, "THE LEADER?"

BUT HOW CAN YOU BE
SURPRISED?

AND IT'S NOT
JUST THE GIRLS EITHER.
WHEN MY DAD GOT KICKED OUT,

- HE DIDN'T EVEN KNOW
THAT EUROPE EXISTED.
- SHE DOESN'T KNOW

WHO GEORGE BUSH IS,
BUT SHE KNOWS "AMERICAN IDOL."

AND THIS STUPID COMPETITION.
SHE'S 15 YEARS OLD

AND SHE'S GETTING MARRIED
TO ROMAN GRANT?

HEY! I MADE IT.
I'M MOVING ON.

OH, THAT'S SO AWESOME.
THAT'S SO COOL.

- CONGRATULATIONS.
THAT'S INCREDIBLE.
- SO EXCITING.

HE'S INSIDE,
ON THE SETTEE.

WHO DID THIS?

- ALBY AND TWO OTHERS.
- WHAT DO THEY KNOW?

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT THEY KNOW,
BUT THEY KNOW ENOUGH!

DO THEY KNOW
YOU'RE TRANSFERRING
YOUR UEB SHARES TO ME?

I DON'T KNOW.
HANNAH, GO ON
IN THE KITCHEN.

HE DOESN'T
DESERVE THIS.

( wives murmuring )

THEY ARE REASSIGNING
MY WIVES

TO OTHER HUSBANDS--
MY LOVELY LADIES.

THAT'LL KILL ME.
THEY'RE COMING BACK
FOR IRMAY AT 5:00.

TWO MEMBERS
OF THE COUNCIL
HAVE HAD THEIR EYE

ON IRMAY
FOR A LONG TIME.

WELL, YOU DON'T
HAVE TO GIVE HER UP
JUST BECAUSE ROMAN SAYS SO.

- YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO.
- BUT HE'S THE PROPHET.

WELL, IF-- IF HE TOLD YOU
JUMP OFF A BRIDGE,
WOULD YOU DO IT?

LOOK, I'LL--
I'LL PUT YOU ALL UP
SOMEWHERE IN THE CITY.

- NO.
- SOMEWHERE WHERE
THEY WON'T LOOK FOR YOU.

( grunts )
NO. LISTEN TO ME!
LISTEN!

I'M AN OLD MAN
WITH NO INCOME AND
NO SOCIAL SECURITY.

YOU'VE GOT TO HELP ME NOW.
YOU'VE GOTTA BUY ME OUT NOW.

ALBY SAID
THEY WOULD KILL ME!

- NOBODY'S GONNA KILL ANYBODY.
- HE SAID THEY WOULD.

( rock music playing )

- I THINK
WE HAVE A YARD.
- MMM.

SORT OF.

I BROUGHT YOU THIS
TO COOL YOU DOWN.

THANK YOU.

- MARGE.
- HMM?

IF SOMETHING
WERE TO HAPPEN...

I DO WORRY ABOUT BARB
AND HOW SHE'D RAISE
THE KIDS.

AND YOU AND I HAVE
ALWAYS KIND OF CLICKED,

DON'T YOU THINK?

SO I CHANGED MY WILL
TO SAY I WANT YOU
TO TAKE MY KIDS.

ME?

WHAT ABOUT THE COMPOUND?

WELL, I'VE THOUGHT
ABOUT IT,

AND THEY REALLY SHOULD GO
TO MY SISTERWIVES.

AND I'LL TAKE YOURS.

- MARGIE?
- MM-HMM, JUST--

I FEEL REALLY
BAD, BUT UM,

I'M LEAVING LESTER
AND AARON TO BARB.

I KNOW YOU'RE A REALLY
GOOD MOM AND EVERYTHING,

AND REALLY CAREFUL, I--

I JUST DON'T--

I JUST-- I FEEL LIKE
YOU'RE NOT VERY WARM.

I AM WARM.

- NO, YOU'RE NOT.
- YES, I AM.

YOU CAN'T HELP IT.
IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT.

IT-- DON'T WALK AWAY.

WHAT DO YOU
WANT ME TO DO?

- GIMME A HUG.
- NO!

I HUG PEOPLE,
BUT I DON'T HUG PEOPLE
JUST TO MAKE A POINT.

NICKI!

Bill:
I KNOW IT'S A LOT OF MONEY.
I KNOW IT'S A RUSH.

JUST ADVISE ME.
WOULD YOU TAKE IT INTO
A SECOND MORTGAGE ON ONE HOUSE

OR DIVIDE IT
OVER THE THREE?

YEAH, I APPRECIATE IT.
JUST LET ME KNOW HOW MUCH
THE BANK CAN GIVE,

AND LET ME KNOW
HOW FAST YOU CAN GIVE IT.

- OH, HEY, BILL.
- YOU ALL SET?

- YOU BET.
- OKAY.

THE GUYS
IN THE PRO SHOP
ARE CLEANING YOUR CLUBS.

( sighs )
AND, YOU KNOW,
I PREFER TO, UM,

CARRY MY OWN BAG.
IT'S AN OLD HABIT.

THAT'S FINE.

YOU KNOW, BILL,

I HEARD YOU LECTURE
A FEW YEARS BACK.

- YOU DID? NO KIDDING.
- YEAH, YOU WERE
SO PASSIONATE

ABOUT YOUR LIFE STORY,

YOUR POLYGAMIST ORIGINS

AND HOW YOU WERE SAVED
BY THE CHURCH.

I MEAN, IT WAS
TRULY INSPIRATIONAL.

BIT OF ANCIENT HISTORY,
THOSE SPEECHES.

WELL, I'VE NEVER
FORGOTTEN IT.

WHAT THEY DO
TO THOSE BOYS--

KICKING THEM OUT LIKE THAT.
I MEAN, THAT'S A BLIGHT
ON MORMONDOM.

AND PEOPLE THINK
THAT WE ARE THEM.

- IT'S JUST WHAT GOD
PUT ON MY PLATE.
- HMM.

YOU KNOW
WHO YOU ARE, BILL?

YOU'RE
THE QUINTESSENTIAL EMBODIMENT
OF THE AMERICAN DREAM--

THE CERTAINTY
THAT ENORMOUS OPPORTUNITIES
ARE AVAILABLE

IF YOU WORK HARD,
NO MATTER WHERE
YOU'RE FROM

OR WHO YOUR
PARENTS ARE.

Rhonda:
WOULD YOU LIKE TO SAY
OUR PRAYERS TOGETHER?

I DON'T REALLY DO THAT
SO MUCH ANYMORE.

- WHY?
- I--

I JUST DON'T.

HEAVENLY FATHER,
THANK YOU FOR THIS LOVELY DAY,

AND THANK YOU
FOR LETTING ME ATTEND
THIS LOVELY TOURNAMENT

WHERE I KNOW YOU WILL
HELP ME TO SUCCEED.

THANK YOU
FOR BRINGING ME CLOSE AGAIN
TO MY STEPNIECE

AND GRANDDAUGHTER-IN-LAW
SARAH.

AND WATCH OVER
OUR PROPHET, ROMAN,

AND PROTECT HIM,

IN THE NAME
OF JESUS CHRIST,

AMEN.

I LIKE
YOUR FRIEND HEATHER.

I WOULDN'T
TRUST HER, THOUGH.

( air conditioner humming )

I LOVE THE HUM
OF THE AIR CONDITIONING.

MUST BE NICE
LIVING HERE.

( cell phone ringing )

- WHO WAS THAT, HONEY?
- STUART KIMBALL.

WHO'S HE?

HEAD OF THE LEADERSHIP
LEAGUE.

IT'S A GROUP
OF BUSINESSMEN DOWNTOWN.

I KNOW WHO THEY ARE.
I READ THE PAPERS.

WHAT'S IT ABOUT?

THEY'VE INVITED ME IN.
LOOKS LIKE I'LL BE JOINING.

WHY ARE YOU EVEN
THINKING ABOUT IT?

LEE, UH, TOLD ME YOU GUYS
WERE HAVING PROBLEMS
WITH THE WILLS.

- NO.
- NO?

NO. WHY ARE YOU
JOINING?

NICKI, THIS IS
A GOOD THING.

IF IT'S SO GOOD,
THEN WHY DIDN'T YOU
TELL ME?

- IT JUST HAPPENED.
- WHAT'S GOING ON
AROUND HERE?

- WHAT DO YOU MEAN
WHAT'S GOING ON?
- YOU OUT THERE

IN THE LEADERSHIP LEAGUE,
AND BARB PARADING AROUND

ON SOME FOURTH OF JULY FLOAT
AS MOTHER OF THE YEAR?

WHAT HAPPENS
TO ME AND MARGIE
IN THIS PICTURE?

WHAT HAPPENS TO US
AS A FAMILY?

LOOK, BARB JUST
GOT THROUGH DEALING
WITH HER SISTER

WHO MAKES HER FEEL
LIKE YOU-KNOW-WHAT

AND SHE'S COMPLETELY
CUT OFF FROM HER MOTHER.

- I UNDERSTAND WHY
SHE NEEDED THIS.
- FINE,

BUT WHAT ABOUT YOU THEN?
WHY DO YOU NEED THIS?

MY JOINING THE LEAGUE
TRANSLATES TO PUTTING
FOOD ON OUR TABLE,

- ALL OF OUR TABLES.
- SO IT'S ABOUT MONEY?

IT'S NOT ABOUT MONEY.
IT'S ABOUT DREAMS.

YOU'RE PUTTING
YOUR OWN DESIRES BEFORE
THE WELFARE OF YOUR FAMILY.

THIS IS FOR THE WELFARE
OF MY FAMILY.

WHICH FAMILY?

THE FAMILY YOU HAD
SEVEN YEARS AGO OR
THE FAMILY YOU HAVE NOW?

YOU'RE GONNA
HAVE TO HIDE.

HIDING MAKES YOU
HALF A MAN.

YOU'RE HYPERSENSITIVE.

BEING SECOND WIFE IS
WHAT YOU'RE UPSET ABOUT,

AND IT CLOUDS YOUR VERSION
AND, FRANKLY, HURTS ME.

- ( flushes )
- ( screams )

( train whistling )

( pop music playing )

- WHAT?
- WHAT'S GOING ON?

- NOTHING.
- HEATHER.

I-- I THINK THAT WE HAVE
TO HELP RHONDA.

- HELP HER HOW?
- THERE ARE PLACES THAT
WE CAN TAKE HER.

THERE ARE PLACE WE CAN GO--
HELP THE CHILD BRIDES,

JUSTICE FOR CHILDREN,
CHILD PROTECTION PROJECT.

THEY CAN HELP HER
GET AWAY.

- I CAN'T DO THAT.
- I KNOW THAT THIS
CAN PUT YOU

IN A WEIRD SITUATION,
BUT THERE ARE WAYS
OF HELPING

THAT JUST HELPS
AND IT DOESN'T PUT
ANYONE AT RISK.

UM, MAYBE IT'S NOT
WHAT WE WANT FOR HER.

MAYBE SHE HAS AN OPINION.
SHE'S A REAL PERSON...

...THAT'S BEING
FORCED TO BE A WIFE
TO A 70-YEAR-OLD MAN.

HE'S 76, I KNOW!

JUST BECAUSE YOU'RE USED
TO IT DOESN'T MAKE IT
ANY LESS SHOCKING.

HEATHER, DON'T ASK ME
TO DEFEND IT.

IT'S-- IT'S HORRIBLE,
BUT I CAN'T DO ANYTHING
ABOUT IT.

THIS IS NOT RIGHT, SARAH,
AND YOU KNOW IT.

IT WOULD PUT
MY FAMILY AT RISK,
AND I'M NOT GONNA DO THAT.

MR. HENRICKSON?

- WENDY?
- MR. HENRICKSON,

I CAME IN A MINUTE AGO

AND, UM...

( sighs )
I INADVERTENTLY
PICKED UP THE WRONG FILE.

THANK YOU.

Woman:
Kimball-Collins.
How may I direct your call?

- STUART KIMBALL, PLEASE.
- Who's calling?

- BILL HENRICKSON.
- One moment, please.

( ringing tone )

- Stuart: Hello?
- STUART, HEY.

Bill, thanks for returning.
Just wanted to give you
a heads up.

I had the membership
application sent over
to your office--

technicality, really,
an opportunity for you

to give a bit
more information
about your business

- and your family.
- FINE, I'LL KEEP MY EYE
OUT FOR IT.

Good.
Hey, uh, by the way,

I happened to catch
a documentary on TV
last night

about a polygamist
compound.

- NO KIDDING.
- Unbelievable.

They called it
"An American Taliban"--

women as prisoners,
men as tyrants.

You knew a lot of people
like that?

NO, STUART, I DIDN'T.

Do you still have
family left back there?

YES, I DO.

It must weigh on you.

IT DOES.

- HEY, MOM.
- OH, HI, HONEY.

MWAH.
OH, YOU SMELL GAMEY.

- GO TAKE A SHOWER.
- OKAY.

BEN, WHY HAVEN'T
WE MET BRYNN?

UH, I DON'T KNOW.
JUST HASN'T HAPPENED.

WELL, LET'S MAKE IT
HAPPEN.

I'D LIKE TO MEET THIS PERSON
THAT YOU'RE SPENDING
SO MUCH TIME WITH.

- IT'S NOT THAT
MUCH TIME.
- BEN,

NO MORE DISCUSSIONS,
NO MORE EXCUSES.

I WANNA MEET HER.

( door opens )

HI. CAN YOU TELL ME
WHAT ROOM RHONDA VOLMER
WOULD BE IN?

VOLMER. VOLMER?

SHE'S NOT
IN THE COMPETITION.

SHE'S NOT?
ARE YOU SURE?

YES, I'M SURE.

SHE WAS ELIMINATED
IN THE FIRST ROUND

YESTERDAY.

AW, THEY'RE JUST
AT A COMPLETE IMPASSE.
NOBODY'LL SIGN IT.

HAVE YOU THOUGHT
OF GIVING THEM EACH
A BRACELET OR SOMETHING?

ZALES GIVES YOU A GOOD DEAL
IF YOU'RE BUYING
MORE THAN ONE.

NO, THAT'S NOT
GONNA FLY.

LISTEN, I NEED
TO ASK YOU A FAVOR.

IF I DIE,

BARB DIES
AND NICKI DIES,

WOULD YOU, PEG,
VERNA AND JOJO
TAKE THE KIDS

AND RAISE THEM
IN THE PRINCIPLE?

- WE'D BE HONORED.
- ( sighs )

OH, I FORGOT.
THIS, UH...

JUST CAME BY MESSENGER
A FEW MINUTES AGO FOR YOU.

OH BOY.

FORMAL APPLICATION
FOR THE LEADERSHIP
LEAGUE.

YOU DON'T HAVE
TO DO IT, YOU KNOW?

NO, IT'S THE WIVES--
NO MATTER HOW MANY TIMES
I TRY TO EXPLAIN IT TO THEM--

WHAT THIS MEANS,
WHAT THIS COULD MEAN
TO ALL OF US,

THEY JUST GET ALL EMOTIONAL.
THEY JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND.

THEY WANT ME TO SAY NO,
BUT I WON'T.

I MEAN,
SOMETIMES YOU--

YOU SEE THOSE
POLITICIANS WHO DON'T
RUN FOR PRESIDENT

TO PROTECT THEIR
PILL-POPPING WIVES OR
THEIR ALCOHOLIC CHILDREN,

AND YOU JUST KNOW
THAT THERE'S A HOLE
INSIDE OF THEM

TILL THEIR DYING DAY,
WONDERING JUST...

WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN.

TRUE,

BUT WE'VE CHOSEN A LIFE
THAT REQUIRES SACRIFICE.

YOU HAVE TO DECIDE
THAT THAT SACRIFICE
IS WORTH IT.

YOUR CHARITY WORK
WAS IMPORTANT,
TO BE SURE,

BUT, TRUTHFULLY,

IT WAS YOUR CANCER
THAT SEALED THE DEAL.

THE FIRST LADY
IS TRYING TO SHINE A LIGHT
ON SURVIVORSHIP THIS YEAR.

YOU AND YOUR FELLOW FINALISTS
ARE ALL SURVIVORS.

MMM, WELL,
SO MANY PEOPLE ARE.

TRUE, BUT MOST
ARE MERELY TUMORS.
LUCKILY FOR YOU,

- YOURS HAD METASTASIZED.
- JUST LUCKY.

PART OF THE FINAL
SELECTION IS THESE
INFORMAL EVALUATIONS.

AS A SPOKESPERSON
FOR ALL THE MOTHERS
IN UTAH,

- POISE AND PRESENCE COUNT.
- OH, CERTAINLY, OF COURSE.

IN THE EVENT YOU WIN,

YOU ARE AVAILABLE
GIVE SPEECHES
AND MAKE APPEARANCES?

SPEECHES?
JUST-- UH, YES.

- ARE YOU COMFORTABLE
IN THE PUBLIC EYE?
- OH, SURE.

AT LEAST IN FRONT
OF MY SECOND-GRADERS.

- AHEM.
- ABLE TO ATTEND
OVERNIGHT EVENTS?

I HAD NO IDEA
THIS WAS SO DEMANDING.

YOU'D BE
A STATEWIDE ROLE MODEL,
VERY MUCH OUT IN PUBLIC.

VERY GOOD.

I ENJOYED MEETING YOU.
ANY QUESTIONS--

YOU CAN REACH ME
AT THE FIRST LADY'S OFFICE.

AND I'LL SEE YOU
ON THE BIG DAY.

( sighs )

OH, I THOUGHT THAT
INTERVIEW WOULD NEVER END.

IT'S SO LATE TO START
COOKING CHICKEN.

I MADE SLOPPY JOES.
THERE'S PLENTY.

WELL, THANKS.

YEAH, THAT--
THAT'D BE GREAT.

SO WHAT ARE WE
GONNA DO?

( sighs )
NICKI,

I CAN'T PROMISE

THAT I'D LIVE THE PRINCIPLE
IF BILL DIED.

I CAN'T.
BUT I LOVE YOU

AND I LOVE THOSE
TWO LITTLE BOYS

- LIKE THEY WERE
MY VERY OWN.
- I KNOW.

AND I WOULD CERTAINLY
RAISE THEM TO RESPECT IT

AND VALUE THOSE WHO STRUGGLE
TO MAKE IT WORK.

DO YOU THINK
I'M WARM?

NO.

Barb:
SO IF SHE DIES AND BILL
DIES AND I DIE,

- THEN YOU GET
LESTER AND AARON.
- YES.

AND IF SHE DIES
AND BILL DIES
AND I DIE,

THEN YOU GET
LESTER AND AARON.

MM-HMM.

- MARGIE!
- Nicki: MARGIE!

I NEVER THOUGHT
THIS DAY WOULD COME.

I'M FINALLY
GETTING OUT.

Bill: IT'S HARD TO LEAVE
A PLACE YOU'VE LIVED
YOUR WHOLE LIFE.

- Holloway: HMM.
- BUT IT'S A NEW WORLD
OUT THERE, ERNEST--

A BETTER ONE.

- THANK YOU.
- I DON'T KNOW IF YOU
SHOD THANK ME, BILL.

WHEN ROMAN FINDS OUT
THAT YOU'VE TAKEN MY SEAT
ON HIS COUNCIL,

YOU WATCH OUT
FOR YOURSELF.

I WILL.

WHAT I TOLD YOU ABOUT
YOUR GRANDFATHER,
ABOUT HIS DEATH,

WAS THE TRUTH.

AND YOU MIND THAT
ON YOUR JOURNEY, HMM?

Man over P.A.:
Ladies and gentlemen,
this is the final call

For the southbound 227
to Provo,

- Las Vegas,
Phoenix and Tucson.
- HERE WE GO.

LEND A HAND.

OH, THANK YOU,
YOUNG MAN.

( boys talking )

Nicki:
WATCH. WATCH WATCH WATCH.

- MARGIE, YOU OKAY?
- ( Aaron crying )

Nicki:
I'M SURE IT WAS
JUST SUNSTROKE.

I'M PREGNANT.

Bill on video:
I was born

into the worst kind
of ignorance.

There in the shadow
of a corrupt system
it parades as a religion--

polygamy.

There are kind
and gentle people
trapped in that system.

I was thrown out
in the streets,

forced to make it
on my own, and I did so

with the help,
compassion,

and the generosity
of this church.

- In exile
I found glory--
-( tape stops )

( sighs )

( ringing tone )

- Recording: Stuart Kimball
is not available.
- ( beeps )

STUART, BILL HENRISON.
LISTEN,

I'D LOVE TO JOIN
THE LEADERSHIP LEAGUE,

BUT I CAN'T RIGHT NOW.

I'VE JUST GOT TOO MUCH
ON MY PLATE.

I APPRECIATE THE OFFER.

KEEP ME IN MIND.

( beeps )

( closes cell phone )

Bill on video:
...and because I have
a partner,

not some...

self-proclaimed prophet--

the teachings of our Lord
Jesus Christ.

I'm on a journey.

Everything I've told you
here today is true.

I didn't choose it.

It happened to me.

As my journey
continues,

I don't know
where it leads,

but I walk it
fearlessly.

- Thank you.
-( applause )

( folk rock music playing )
