"Two minutes, honey." "Okay?" "What?" "What is that..." "What was that thing you said?" "The malaise?" "Oh, that's just a fancy way of saying bullshit." "Okay, no." "The other thing." "ADD." "You, Tommy, have emotional ADD." "Okay, you keep promising the world to your children and to your wife, and then you spend half of your waking hours spoon-feeding your brain-damaged godson and giving emotional support to your ex-girlfriend." "I mean, you missed three dinners this week." "And right now, you were supposed to be at the St. Celia CYC AA." "Okay, not to mention the F.D.N.Y. thing, the PAL thing, and the PTA thing, all of which you missed last week." "Tommy, you promised me that you would be focused here at home on us." "But no, you are so busy trying to save the goddamn world, rescuing people from fires, from cars," "Sheila, Damian, every other goddamn soul on this planet, except your own goddamn family." "I mean, it's like you have OCD, except instead of germs, you're obsessed with saving strangers." "When it comes to Sheila..." "Have you thought about PTSD when it comes to her?" "Honey, I told you, I got tested." "She got tested" "PTSD, post-traumatic stress disorder, Tommy." "And thank you for that visual." "Okay." "I don't know." "Maybe I do have ADD." "and CBS and NHL, the LPA." "I don't know." "I'm just one guy, you know, with" " With one family." "No." "With two families." "Okay, two families." "You know..." "Okay, has Mickey resurfaced yet?" "A couple of the guys saw him, but he's not helping out." "He's not involved." "He doesn't know..." "Okay, so Damian and your girlfriend are now your responsibility." "Jesus Christ." "It's not my girlfriend." "This is not a girlfriend thing." "This is a family thing." "If I'd never slept with her and this happened to Damian, wouldn't you expect me to do what I'm doing for Jimmy?" "Yes, yes." "Okay, see?" "Yes, but you did sleep with her, and that is the difference." "Look, Katy has a dance recital tomorrow night, and Colleen has her 50th meeting in 50 days." "You need to be there for both." "Okay." "Jesus Christ." "Dad." "Vietnam, right." "What have you got so far?" "Okay, I have that once we got in, we couldn't get out." "And both sides dug their heels in and neither one would let up any ground." "And that's basically the main idea, right?" "Don't I know it." "JANET:" "What?" "Uh, we're talking American history here." "SHEILA:" "So you're gonna be with him at this pavilion hoosie-whatsie, right?" "Yeah." "SHEILA:" "Okay." "SHEILA:" "Then I shouldn't worry." "I mean, I would go." "It's just that I really wanna catch this specialist." "It's like he's only here one week out of every year." "Yeah." "Listen, it'll do him some good to be out of the house." "You know what I mean?" "SHEILA:" "I guess." "Besides, you know what, you've gotta drive the van." "It's not that I don't trust the guys." "It's just that honestly, that van cost more than all of them put together." "I am the only person who will be driving the van." "I guarantee you that." "Okay?" "So this specialist, he has got a clinic in Zurich, and, um, he is into this whole alternative form of therapy." "And it's wicked expensive, but he says that the proteins are great." "Um, he just wants to add some injectable steroids and then a series of blood supplements." "And, um, it's 25 grand a month." "But he has got a patient in Sweden who's getting the circulation feeling back in his legs." "Yeah, because he's sitting on an empty wallet." "Twenty five grand." "That's a lot of money." "I don't care what it costs." "I" " No, I know." "I know." "I want Damian to walk again." "Okay." "Right." "Right." "Hey, you're reading this, huh?" "What?" "Oh, yeah." "I have." "I really love those self-help books." "I feel like no matter what they have to offer with, like, either, you know, weight or quit smoking or grief, they do have something to offer that's worth it." "And I think that's why they sell so well." "Yeah." "To chicks." "You've never read a self-help book?" "I, uh, read How to Throw a Football by Johnny Unitas when I was, like, 12." "And then again when I was, like, 35, when Jimmy and I joined that flag football league." "Jimmy used to call it "fag football" league." "It was pretty faggy, which is why I threw, like, 48 touchdown passes when I was playing quarterback that year." "Listen, um," "I really appreciate what you've been doing, for the both of us." "It's..." "Don't mention it." "Don't." "You don't have to say anything about that." "Jimmy's definitely looking down and he sees what a good man and friend" "Best friend-- You don't have to say it." "You are being, unlike Mickey." "Douchebag." "Mm-hm." "What did he say, exactly?" "He said some very hurtful things." "He couldn't handle it." "No." "You know what, just don't get me started." "What I want to say is that I really" "Those things I said about hating you, I" "No, no, no, no, listen." "Forget about that." "I know." "You don't hate me." "You don't blame me." "I blame myself." "No, you shouldn't." "It was me." "I talked him into being a firefighter." "Did he want to do it?" "Yeah." "But I pushed him in that direction, you know, so..." "Yes, but I should have, uh, done more of the, like, reverse psychology thing and kept telling him that I wanted him to be a firefighter." "Reverse psychology is ridiculous." "That was never gonna work, no." "He wanted to go back on the rig, but I urged him." "I shouldn't have done it, you know." "Yeah, and you shouldn't have shown him his father's badge." "Are you talking about the badge that you gave me specifically to save and keep for him?" "The one to keep the hell out of my house?" "Yes." "The house you suffocated him in." "[DAMIAN GROANING]" "What is it, honey?" "Are you okay?" "What?" "Give him a drink." "Here, here." "See if you can..." "See if you can get it, Damian." "Come on." "Yeah, a little more." "Whoa!"

"You were supposed to be my sponsor, which was a stupid idea to begin with and even more idiotic now that I realize that in trying to do 90 meetings in 90 days, out of the 49 I've hit so far," "you've only been with me for 10 of them." "No." "One-zero." "Okay, and every time I try to call you to talk about booze or an urge to drink or something about recovery that I need to know, you not only don't pick up, you don't call me back or text me." "Honey, I can't text." "My fingers are too big." "I tried typing in "What's going on,"" "and it sends out "Who's blowing Juan?"" "I can't do it." "Here's the thing." "I don't even wanna drink this stuff now." "That's good, honey." "I just wanted to see how fast you'd get here if I lit a fire under your ass." "[SIGHS]" "You know I have a lot of stuff going on." "I try to juggle everything at work and home." "Meaning Damian." "He's crippled." "So am I, by a disease I inherited from you!" "Shh!" "Keep it down." "My 50th meeting is tonight."

"[CHUCKLES]" "Unless you're gonna say you're a gutless, spineless, no balls pussy," "I don't wanna hear it." "I'd rather just keep doing this." "At least I get some satisfaction out of it." "All right." "Is that what you wanna hear?" "Yeah." "All right." "I'm a no-good, gutless, spineless pussy, okay, who abandoned his girlfriend and a paralyzed kid because I'm just a self-centered goddamn asshole!" "Does that about cover it?" "Yeah." "[SIGHS]" "Did you guys hear that?" "LOU:" "Yep!" "Actually, that last part was a little garbled." "The trouble is, fellas, we only bet the physical confrontation, so there's some money kind of hanging in the balance." "Come here." "I want you guys to hear this." "You wanna know why I left Sheila?" "It's not because I'm a coward or I'm a pussy or I suck like he's telling you." "It's because I couldn't take it anymore." "All right, she's wasting her life, all her energy, her time, her money, her hope, on a string of quacks!" "Endless." "I mean, pills, protein powders, injections, aqua acupuncture." "What is that?" "I don't know." "She's going for it hook, line, and sinker." "So I try to tell her." "I was trying to tell her the truth." "What this guy should be telling her and everybody, which is Damian ain't ever walking again." "He is as is." "Done." "So she told me to take a hike." "I didn't come down here to tell you guys that it took a lot of balls to tell her that." "The truth." "But I'm here to say it took a little bit of balls." "And if any of yous had any, you'd tell her the same thing." "Soon." "[SIGHS]" "Be safe." "[DOOR BANGS]" "Well, always good to see Mick." "[CROWD CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]" "It's a shitter."

"Couldn't get the ramp back in the van." "The van cost an arm and a leg you'd think it would have an automatic ramp, uh..." "What's wrong?" "They've decided to honor Patrick Mahoney, our fallen brother-- A hero." "With a shit pavilion." "I don't know." "Looks pretty good to me." "Not in form, in function." "They got his name on a plaque." "Look behind that blue curtain." "It's a crapatorium, Tom." "A turd temple." "A boo-boo barn." "A fudge hole." "You know, we need a guy in a suit now."

"The guy gets cancer working at Ground Zero, and you guys think that this is, uh..." "That this is..." "Fits?" "That this is, uh..." "Appropriate?" "No." "That ain't it, dude." "Are you members of the Mahoney family?" "Not technically, no, but, Jesus" "The family was given a list of naming options." "This is the one they chose." "They wanted a pavilion." "Were they made aware that pavilion means outhouse?" "Your friend is being honored here, whether you believe it or not." "Just go with the flow." "Hey, problem is, the flow is full of feces, pal." "This is a slap in the goddamn face is what it is." "Pat was no different than the men who died when the towers came down." "He's dead because he worked long hours on that cancerous pile of shit." "You didn't have a urinal to offer?" "Something smaller, more insignificant?" "You wanna make a scene?" "How about I bring Mr. Mahoney's mom here so you can ruin this day?" "Thanks for nothing." "Thanks, bud." "Have a good day." "What a dick." "What's going on?" "The ruckus?" "Hey, where the hell you been?" "I had a long walk." "Had to take a leak."

"No, I took a leak at Pat's pavilion." "No, dude, in." "Pat Mahoney's pavilion is a public shitter." "You're kidding me." "Jesus Christ." "I thought the pavilion was this whole kind of area out here, therefore, the shitter was pavilion-adjacent." "Oh, Christ." "I gotta talk to the family." "The family doesn't need to know."

"Ooh!" "Let me say hi to Damian." "Well, the thing is, I'm driving, so it's not..." "It's against the law to talk on a cell while driving." "I shouldn't be talking." "Yeah, I would like him to hear my voice." "All right, here we go, here he is." "Hey, sweetie!" "Did you have fun with the guys in the park?" "Did you miss your old ma?" "God." "[IMITATING DAMIAN]" "Happy now?" "I think he answered me." "Did you hear that?" "He's never done that." "That must be the protein." "I think it's working." "You think it's protein?" "I wouldn't put too much on the protein." "Look, there's a cop up ahead." "I gotta go." "Okay?" "Goddamn it." "A new personal goddamn low!" "Hey, shithead, where are you?" "Hey." "Damian didn't wanna go dancing, so we took him to the bar." "Oh, my God." "Jesus Christ!" "Hey, just relax, will you?" "We're not feeding him drinks." "We're feeding him beer nuts, feeding him pretzels, but no drinks." "Don't put anything in his mouth!" "Goddamn it!" "All right, hold on a second." "He's trying to..." "He wants to tell you something." "Here." "Just spit it out, Damian." "Uh-huh." "Yeah, he says you're an asshole." "Yeah, you're a regular riot." "I'm gonna be there in 10 minutes, asshole." "You're looking good." "[CHUCKLES]" "Ah, Dame." "Ahem." "What do you think he's thinking?" "Pfft!" "I don't know." "Nothing?" "Or maybe he's having a great time." "How would you know?" "I don't know." "I thought maybe one brain-damaged individual might give us some insight into another." "[FRANCO  SHAWN LAUGH]" "Another what?" "Check, please!" "MIKE:" "Guys, I'm sorry." "Like, I don't mean to sound mean or insensitive or anything, but I think it's really weird that we have him hanging around." "Look at him." "He's fine." "He likes it." "Um, is he okay?" "Uh, well, actually, he's, uh, paralyzed, and he's got a bit of brain damage too." "That's so sad." "SEAN:" "Yeah." "Was he in a car accident?" "No." "He was a firefighter." "We're all firefighters." "He was on our crew." "Happened on a call." "Do you guys still hang out with him?" "SEAN:" "Yeah." "Oh, that's sweet." "[MIKE CHUCKLES]" "Yeah, well, you know, hey, once a brother, always a brother, right?" "I didn't mean to be rude." "I'm Franco, by the way." "This is Sean." "SEAN:" "Hi." "Hi." "Black Shawn here." "And, uh, this right here is Damey-Dame." "Damian, actually." "And this one." "Whatever." "Mike." "Hey, Mike." "So, uh, you guys take care of him and everything?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "I mean, I feed him." "Oh, that's so great." "I'm gonna go outside and wait for Tom." "And maybe puke." "I have to stay and see how low this depravity elevator's gonna go." "And I, uh, you know, I dress him." "And I wash him, and I bathe him, as it were." "Seriously?" "Oh, yeah, yeah." "I mean, most of him." "I do his torso, arms, legs, face." "Try to avoid the groin." "That's gay." "Leave that to Mike." "Ha, ha!" "He's kidding." "So you don't help take care of him?" "Yeah, yeah, sure, I do." "What do you do?" "Uh, I change his diaper, actually." "[CHUCKLES]" "Ew!" "Yeah, so, uh, ladies, you think we might be able to interest you in a couple of drinks over by the bar?" "Yeah, yeah, I think we'd like that." "All right, I know we would." "It's just so nice to meet men that are so caring." "Thanks for that, Shawn." "Thank you." "Thanks." "Whoa." "Got it." "Yeah, nice work." "Thank you." "Why don't you go grab a couple of stools there." "Be right over." "All right." "Nice to meet you." "See you." "Right." "Fantastic." "Oh, my God." "How easy was that?" "What was happening?" "I don't understand." "We just bagged three chicks in under 45 seconds." "That's gotta be a land pussy speed record or something." "You know what it is?" "It's him." "You're right, bro." "He is, no doubt, the ultimate wingman." "He attracts chicks." "Doesn't mess with your game." "Won't dominate the conversation, and he can't cock-block you." "Unbelievable." "He's like a paralyzed pussy magnet." "I'm taking him on Saturday." "Okay, all right, well, I want him on Friday," "I want Saturday next weekend." "No, no, we'll switch off every other weekend." "Know what, that's perfect." "Guys, when do I get him?" "Go wash your hands, diaper boy." "That's bullshit." "If you guys are gonna..." "[ALL CHATTERING INDISTINCTLY]" "That's enough!" "That's enough!" "I cannot believe you!" "I'm sitting there listening to you actually using our paralyzed probie for you guys picking up pussy." "You know, you're right." "Sorry, chief." "Yeah, sorry." "Terrible, man." "Shameless action." "But look at that pussy." "I know." "We don't want it getting cold." "Let's hurry." "Go, go, go, go, go." "Who are these guys?" "I know." "You gotta start hanging out with a better class of people, kid." "What happened to your friend?" "Ah, he got hurt." "He's a firefighter." "Are you a firefighter?" "Nah." "I'm the chief." "What's your name?" "Abby." "Abby?" "Yeah." "NEEDLES:" "That's lovely." "ABBY:" "Thanks." "Shameful." "Oh, God, come on!" "[HORN HONKS]" "[SIGHS]" "[CELL PHONE RINGS]" "Hmm, hmm, hmm." "Yeah." "JANET [OVER PHONE]:" "You missed it." "I already talked to Colleen, all right?" "You missed Colleen's meeting too?" "I didn't know that." "I was talking about Katy's dance recital." "Honey, something came up, okay?" "Yeah, something involving Damian." "Pat Mahoney's pavilion dedication." "You know, things were running behind." "What do you want me to do?" "Okay, look, Tommy, I don't wanna sound cold here, but Pat Mahoney is dead and gone." "Okay, and for all intents and purposes, so is Damian." "But your daughter, on the other hand, she is here, and she still needs her father." "And more amazingly, she still wants her father." "How long do you think that's gonna last if you keep neglecting her?" "How did she do?" "She was..." "Words don't do it justice." "You had to be there." "Yeah." "Anything else you wanna tell me?" "What, about tonight?" "In general." "Anything, uh, on your mind?" "Yeah." "If you wanna rescue the world, start with your children." "[HORN HONKS]" "[GRUNTS]" "I'm gonna start upstairs." "You stay in here and finish the Pat Mahoney pavilion." "The what?" "Who the hell is Pat Mahoney?" "Some important dead mick." "I gotta know everything?" "Is this new?" "I been working City Hall six years," "I never seen it before." "That's your problem." "You're not observant." "How else you gonna have success in life?" "That's why he has a pavilion and you don't." "Yeah, well, maybe I don't want a pavilion." "I gotta clean the goddamn thing." "You did this to me, Tommy." "[***]"
