"You want a tushy cushion?" "It's okay." "I just want to be treated like everybody else." "Extra gravy for ya." "And two teas." "Three sugars for me." "Splenda." "How's that leg today, Tommy?" "Beats a sharp stick in the eye." "(GIGGLES)" "(GIGGLES)" "Tommy, you wanna..." "Oh." "Bless us, Lord, for these gifts we're about to receive, and for those gifts you've bestowed upon us." "Amen." "Amen." "Mmm, mmm, mmm." "Super good today, Sam." "Thanks." "How's that physical therapy I'm payin' for?" "Well, could use a couple more months." "How's that anger management class?" "Might need to go more often." "Mmm." "(LAUGHING) Whoa!" "Mmm." "(PHONE BEEPS)" "Shit." "Ugh, switch it off." "(PHONE BEEPS)" "Babe, what's wrong?" "It's uh... from my dad." "My grandma passed." "Oh my God." "I'm so sorry." "He texted that to you?" "Yeah, they're not the best communicators." "Do you need to go home for the funeral?" "You know what?" "I'll probably just send flowers." "You sure?" "Toni, your family would want you in Atlanta." "Nah." "I think I'm better off here." "(CHUCKLING)" "Sid Matt, poor thing." "He's been in and out of the hospital nine, ten months now." "He tells me, "Portia, the firm's all yours,"" "but I think people still like to see his name on the cards and signs." "Is the cappuccino okay?" "It's in the ballpark." "I had to improvise." "No one's ever ordered a cappuccino here." "So I tracked down your buyer, AIK." "Turns out their address is a PO box in the Caribbean." "Phone number is an answering service." "I can keep on it, but it may take some time." "You know my hourly rate." "I'm sure someone with your skill can do it in half the time." "Honestly, they must have put around fifty thousand worth of improvements into that house." "They'd at least want to be compensated for that." "Can't we negotiate some kind of settlement, a payment plan?" "I'll get a hold of someone at AIK." "Maybe we can appeal to their sense of compassion." "Thank you." "There's a lifetime of memories in that house for me." "(DISTORTED) Lifetime of misery and murder, she means." "Oh, poor girl." "Plus all those nights bangin' Bill Compton." "Must have been crazy for him, doin' his vampire business." "Wonder if she'll go crawling' back." "Better not." "He hardly mentions her at all." "Bill okay?" "I'm sorry, excuse me?" "Can I send you a bill?" "Oh yeah." "Sure, of course." "(LOUD DANCE MUSIC PLAYING)" "Hey." "Name's Matt." "Jessica." "Nice to meet you." "And I was thinkin' that you were way too beautiful to be alone here tonight." "And I figure it couldn't hurt to ask." "(DISTORTED HEARTBEAT)" "Actually, uh, I'm here with my boyfriend." "Sorry." "It's my loss." "It's uh, O-neg with a twist of B-five." "You dance with a drink in your hand?" "Sorry I lost my temper with you." "I know." "I'm sorry, too." "HOYT:" "You glad we came?" "I know it's been a while." "Yeah, I'm just, I'm just gonna go touch myself up." "I'll be right back." "(KNOCKING)" "PAM:" "Toilets are for humans only." "Do I need to explain why?" "Sorry, I just..." "I needed a minute." "It's been ages." "Not a letter, a telegram, a smoke signal." "We've been worried sick about you." "Really?" "Not really." "Well, I'm fine." "Me and Hoyt, we, we moved in together." "That tree with the plaid shirt, it has a name?" "Well, he seems sweet and all, if you're into that sort of thing, but if you're making him bring you here, I've got a hunch it's not enough." "Well, it was his idea." "You know, like a date night." "Mmm." "The way you're eye-fucking fang-bangers from across the room, that's especially romantic." "You had no reason to feel guilty." "You're a hunter." "You've never been on your own." "You live with a human." "Monogamously." "(LAUGHS)" "(LAUGHING) Sorry." "It's just so ridiculous." "Don't you think if all I wanted to do was kill and fuck, that I'd be out there doin' it right now?" "Mmm." "Look, I don't even know what you saw or what you think you saw, but when I go home tonight, I'm goin' home with the man I love, and I'm just sorry that you never had that." "(LAUGHS)" "But you know what gets me the angriest?" "SUZANNE:" "Hmm?" "EMORY:" "What's that?" "I thought I had it licked." "I finally cleaned out Tommy's apartment." "Good for you." "Oh, well, that's great." "No." "It brought it all back." "The...the sick feeling." "SUZANNE:" "Hmm." "And I knew it was wrong even before I pulled the trigger." "It was like some other person fired that gun, and there was nothin' I could do to stop him." "Oh, yeah." "I've been there." "Mmm, me, too." "All of us." "Yeah, luckily, I didn't have a gun at the time," "(LAUGHING) or I'd have been a widow a long time ago." "It's primal, Sam." "We wouldn't be who we are if we didn't get emotional." "You can even measure the cortisol levels in your blood." "I bet we're all just naturally higher." "You know what helps the cortisol levels in my blood?" "Mmm-hmm." "Gettin' drunk with y'all." "(LAUGHING)" "Well, hell." "Let's crack open another one then." "Let's crack one open." "Oh, I am near to pickled as it is!" "You in, Luna?" "I gotta teach tomorrow." "Gotta teach?" "It's public education." "Who's gonna know the difference?" "Emory, no politics!" "I will break out in hives." "All right, all right." "So are we ready to move on from wine then?" "I am." "Yes." "Let's hit it." "Let's hit it." "SUZANNE:" "Whoo-hoo!" "Can I get unzipped, please?" "Uh, that's it." "Thank you!" "I have been looking forward to this." "(LAUGHS)" "Please, please." "(LUNA LAUGHING)" "(WHINNYING)" "BOY:" "He's here!" "It's Jason!" "(DOG BARKING)" "Hey, y'all!" "Soup's on!" "KIDS:" "Yay!" "BOY:" "Y'all come on!" "Hey, Timbo." "Hey, Becky." "BOY:" "What do you have?" "JASON:" "I did good this time, guys." "GIRL:" "Can I have some?" "Hot dogs, pork and beans, and ice cream." "Ice cream!" "You know what we do?" "We save this for later, yeah." "Uh, Timbo, go put that in the icebox." "BOY:" "Give me some." "Uh, oh, hey, hey!" "Don't open it." "GIRL:" "Mister Jason, can I have some?" "BOY:" "Let me have it." "How you doin'?" "Come on over!" "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!" "At least let me put it on the stove." "You gonna get sick if you eat raw meat." "(KIDS LAUGHING)" "We ain't never got sick before." "You want the rest of my hangubber?" "Ugh." "Yeah, we really need to get your Aunt Crystal back here ASAP." "Y'all could use a mama, and I could use a break." "Didn't you talk to Aunt Crystal?" "Not yet." "But I could think of one or two things" "I'd like to tell her when I do find her." "BOY:" "Let me have some of that!" "Dude." "Hey, Mister Jason?" "The, the ice box ain't cold or nothin'." "Well, are you sure?" "'Cause I just fixed it." "Come on." "Oh, shoot." "You left it open?" "Yeah, well, that's our air conditionin'." "No wonder you busted it." "Now I'm gonna have to replace the cooling element." "Oh!" "JASON:" "Oh, fuck!" "Wait!" "Timbo, what the..." "Hey!" "I'm gonna suffocate in here!" "Come on." "Minerva was much more than a pet to me." "She was my friend, my companion, my familiar." "I, I was wondering why she stopped eating, but now I realize it was her way of telling me that she had more work to do in the spirit world." "I've uh, looked up a ritual to ease her passage there." "Would you all join me, for Minerva?" "MARNIE:" "Guardians of life, shadows of death, we summon thee." "GROUP:" "Guardians of life, shadows of death, we summon te." "Guide Minerva from our realm to yours." "GROUP:" "Guide Minerva from our realm to yours." "Guardians of life, shadows of death, we summon thee." "GROUP:" "Guardians of life, shadows of death, we summon thee." "Guide Minerva from our realm to yours." "GROUP:" "Guide Minerva from our realm to yours." "Restore within her the spirit of life." "(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE)" "And return her to the plane of the living." "Uh, Marnie?" "Restore within her the spirit of life." "(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE)" "And return her to the plane of the living." "Marnie, we haven't studied this." "You!" "Join!" "(GASPS)" "(SPEAKING FOREIGN LANGUAGE)" "(SQUAWKS)" "(GASPS)" "(CHIRPING)" "(GASPING)" "(CHIRPING)" "Um," "I'm sorry after all that trouble, your bird's still dead." "It doesn't matter." "The king is expecting me." "Gate two." "Miss Pelham is at Garden One on foot toward you." "MAN:" "Copy that." "I have eyes on." "(WALKIE-TALKIE CHATTER)" "Your Majesty." "Good evening, Miss Pelham." "Please, sit anywhere." "(GASPS)" "What the hell!" "Excuse me!" "Mmm." "Such a strange sensation when the reality matches what you've pictured in your mind so precisely." "Is this another dream?" "It's been a year." "How much of your blood is left in me?" "Oh, it's not a dream, I assure you." "Then how are you here?" "I rescinded your invitation." "You don't own the house anymore." "I do." "Why would you do that?" "Why would you buy my house?" "Because I always knew you were alive, and if I owned the house," "then I would own you." "Sookie, you are mine."
