"I feel truly terrible that we haven't had a chance to connect." "You know, I'm usually very good about making our guests feel at home." "It's just that it's been insane at work and with Robert's injury, and I haven't had a minute to myself and I'm afraid my manners have gone right out the window." "You must give me a chance to make it up to you." "How about 3:00?" " Okay." " Oh, wonderful." "I'll see you then." "[Yvonne] That's the tour." "Well, you have such a beautiful home." "Thank you." "A house, it's... it's like a marriage, actually." "You gotta be in it for the long haul if you ever want to see it come together." "What kind of tea can I get you?" "I'll..." "I'll take anything, really." "So polite." "You clearly had excellent parents." "All righty, I'm making Moroccan mint." "Oh!" "Darling." "Look who I found." "Hey." "I see you got back here all by yourself." "How was the dump?" "The dump is literally Robert's favorite place in town." "You never know what you'll find at the dump." "Someone dropped off a Herman Miller chair today." " No!" " Yeah." "That's astonishing." "I saved that chair and I'm gonna refurbish it and when it's done, you're not gonna be allowed to sit in it." "You rest." "I made you lunch." "What happened?" "Ugh, I had a knee surgery a few weeks ago." " It's fucking annoying." " I'll tell you what's annoying." "The fact that you won't do your physical therapy exercises because you think you're smarter than Hugo." "I am smarter than Hugo." "Who's Hugo?" "He's this ridiculously expensive physical therapist that Yvonne imported from France." "He's from New Jersey." "Who has choreographed an entire exercise routine for me because what he really wants to do is dance." "Hugo made the mistake of telling Robert that he had been in a ballet corp when he was younger, and now Robert can't take anything he says seriously." "The best thing you can do after knee surgery is just walk." "How do you know that?" "Everybody knows that." "The whole internet knows it." "Actually, the best thing you could do is work out with an elastic band." "A lot of people make the mistake of focusing on strength building, but in the beginning range of motion is much more important." "Oh, you sound like you know what you're talking about." "Sit, dear." "Oh, well, I was a nurse for a while." "You were a nurse?" "Fascinating." "Well, what are you doing now?" "Uh..." "I don't actually know." "I know that sounds ridiculous because I'm 32, but I, uh..." "I guess I'm still trying to figure it out." "Welcome to the club." " [phone rings]" " Oh, shit." "I have a conference call." "I forgot." "You know, Yvonne has been looking for a personal assistant." "Oh?" "Yeah, someone to help her and me around the house." "She really shouldn't be here at all." "She usually spends Monday through Thursdays in the city for work." "What does she do?" "She's the head of Radford House." "Uh..." "It's a major publishing house." "Oh." "[chuckles]" "I don't know anything about publishing." "My God, I like you." "Anyway, our last assistant wasn't competent." "We had to fire her, but it's been a disaster here without her." "Yvonne's afraid to leave me alone." "[Yvonne] Well, I don't understand why this wasn't done when I asked, Shane." "I specifically laid out the numbers that needed to be run and you said you'd have it on her desk..." "She's starting to resent me for keeping her here." "If I don't figure out how to get her back to the city soon, it's going to get ugly." "Uh..." "I'd be happy to help." "It's not a glamorous job, and you seem horribly overqualified for this position." "I just thought, since you're here and you seem kind of bored" " and we get along so well..." " I'll take it." "I told you, I should have fired Shane after the holidays, but you made me feel bad because his wife had just had those hideous twins." "Yvonne." "Meet your new assistant." "Oh, God bless you." "[vehicle approaches]" "Hi." "How was your day?" "Fine." "What are you making?" "Dover sole." "Does that taste fishy?" "Well, it's a fish." "Whatever." "What's wrong?" "A shit day." "What happened?"

"Not gonna publish it, so in a month I will be broke, jobless, homeless, and I will have lost custody of my kids." "I'm sorry." "Is there anything I can do to help?" "What's going on with your house?" "What do you mean?" "Are you selling it or what?" "[small laugh]" "I-I don't think so, I..." "You hungry?" "Dinner's almost ready." "Where's my manuscript?" "I, uh, I put it in a drawer for safekeeping." " Have you... have you read it?" " No, of course not." "I don't want you to read it before it's done." "No, I..." "I was worried it would get blown away." "It was... breezy today." "And guess what I did today." "What did you do?" "I got a job." "[laughs] Where?" "With Robert and Yvonne." "They've asked me to be their personal assistant." "What?" "What, is something wrong with that?" "Uh..." "Yes, Alison." "That's fucking weird." "Why?" "Because we're their guests, and they invited me here to finish my novel." "What, so I can't work for them?" " Are you working for free?" " No." "Oh." "That is..." "That is completely inappropriate." "They're already doing me a favor and now they gotta pay you." "Noah, they offered me a job." "You should have said no." "Well, I didn't want to." "You know, I can't deal with this right now."

"Providing counsel to your husband." "What?" "I'm his lawyer." " No." " Yes." "What... what, did Noah call you?" "Helen did." "She shouldn't be getting involved." "I'm his wife now." "Yes, we are all quite painfully aware of that." "So any decisions concerning my husband's legal representation need to go through me." "Do they?" "Really?" "Because your husband has already accepted my services." "I'll tell you what." "From here on in, we will do our very best to keep you in the loop." "What, is she paying you?" "Yes, of course." " That's not acceptable." " If you will excuse me." "Ms. Bailey," "I am sure that this will work out exactly how it... should."

"You're from where, Indiana?" "Nebraska?" "When we first bought property out here, it was a farm and fishing community." "Our friends thought we were crazy." "So far away, nothing to do." "But I loved it." "I loved the peace." "I loved the way the corn grew so high in summer and then just disappeared one day." "I loved the colors in the fall." "The fallow fields in the winter." "The way the ocean changes like a moody woman." "Bright and blue one moment, cold and gray the next." "It's just not the same anymore." "And it'll never go back, you know?" "That's the terrible thing about living." "You never get to go back no matter how badly you miss it." "Just gotta keep moving forward." "I'm leaving my wife." "I'm going back even though I know it's impossible." "Does that make me a fool?" "I don't know, sir." "You'd have to tell me more about the situation." "[chuckles]" "It's a long story." "My son-in-law left my daughter recently." "He's a pathetic son of a bitch, and as far as I'm concerned, good riddance." "But it got me thinking." "If that poor, talentless schmuck thinks he deserves to be happy, why don't I?" "So I went online and I tracked down this girl I used to know." "I called her up." "And then I went to see her, and now we're in love." "I just took her to Barcelona for a weekend." "What do you think of that?" "[soft laugh]" "That sounds like fun." "[laughs] [sighs]" "You married?" "Me?" "No, no, I'm not married." "I've been married for over 40 years." "40 wasted years." "So what happened to your son-in-law?" "Sorry?" "Your son-in-law." "Or, I guess, your ex-son-in-law now." "Whatever happened to him?" "Oh." "I feel bad for the guy, actually." "He's 45, has no savings." "All the money was ours." "I heard he lost his job." "Some people are just destined to fail." "Nothing you can do about it." "Nice talking to you, son." "Take care." "You too, sir." "[engine turns]" "[woman screams]" "Nino." "Nino." "Are you okay?"

"My fault." "I can't believe I just did that." "Well, he's fine." "Nothing happened." "Don't worry." "[speaking Spanish]" "He yours?" "No." "Um, I'm his babysitter." "Ah." " I'm Cole, by the way."

"When was the last time you saw Mom, huh?" "She's not doing great." "Hmm?" "I don't care." "I need to talk to you." "What's going on with the house?" "What?" "Your house." "What's going on with it?" "Is she selling?" "What?" " [laughs]" " What?" "[coughing]" "I have no idea." " Well, have you heard from her?" " Nope." "Because you're sitting on a lot of money there, brother." "Money that we could all use, and as long as you are still married to her, you are entitled to half of it." "You should see where Mom's living right now, man." "It's not pretty." "And Mary Kate's pregnant." "They're sleeping on Mom's pull-out couch." "Is that what you want for your family?" "Scotty, I'm going to give you three seconds to get out of the front of this car and then I'm going to run you the fuck down."

"No." "I'm so sorry, Cole." "I'll do it." "Just give me the address." "I'll mail it out to her tomorrow." "I really don't mind." "I appreciate that, Jane."
