" Johanna?" " I'm here." "Yes." "I'd like to wear my blue dress." "Yes, ma'am." "Hi." "Yes." "I'd like to report a death." "Yes, ma'am." "No..." "I don't know." "She's very old." "I take care of her." "No, I work here." "Yes, ma'am." "I hope it was peaceful." "It was in her sleep." "Thank you." "So, you got another job lined up there?" "Yeah." "Whole new everything." "Mrs. Willits' pastor set it up." "Hey, gorgeous!" "Hey, Dad." " Hey, Edith." " Hi." "What's going on?" "I'll just leave you with it." "There's this model that I wrote out to get the loan." "'Cause I think if you check that out..." "Are you sure you want to have this conversation?" "It's a really good opportunity." "I just thought you might be interested in it." "Why don't you just leave him alone?" " It is a really good opportunity." " There's a lady over there." "I'm Johanna Parry from Plainfield." "The pastor sent me." "Oh, yes, we've been expecting you." "Only a suitcase and a bag?" "Oh, this my granddaughter..." "Sabitha." "She lives in the house with me." "And that makes me Ken." "I'm Sabitha's father." "He's usually not here." "He doesn't live here." "Did you have any problems finding the house?" "Oh, no, I asked in town." "Oh." "Good." "Good." "Okay." "We're going to the astro later for burgers, if you want to join us." " Ken, please." "She just got here." " I'm just being friendly, Bill." "Let me show you to your room." " She's gonna be working here?" " Yeah." "Look at her shoes." "Oh, shit." "You scared the hell out of me." "Sorry." "I was just looking for some hangers." "Well, they're not in here." " These are Mr. Mccauley's." " Yeah." "How much is he paying you?" "I'm only asking 'cause he's a cheapskate, and I wouldn't want him ripping you off." "Hey, don't tell Sabitha I got a headache." "She'll just worry about me, okay?" "Thanks, gorgeous." "And now turn." "Let's see." " Send it." " What's taking him so long?" "So, you know Sabitha from school?" "What?" "Yeah." "Where does her mother live?" "She died." "Oh, my God." "Stevie thought Johanna was your mom." "Look. "Sabitha's mom seems weird."" "Please text him back and tell him she's not my mom." "Get down." "Hey, you missed the action at the astro burger, Bill." "You're not gonna be home to Chicago till 1:00 or 2:00 in the morning." "Well, I was thinking I'd just stay and then leave tomorrow." "I don't think that's a good idea." "I'm glad you're here at least." "Sabitha needs someone like you." "Where did grandpa go?" " He's supposed to take Edith home." " I'll drive her home." "You know, that's okay." "I can call my mom." "Not a problem." "Her parents don't want her driving with you." "Come on." " I wasn't driving..." " It was an accident." "It was an accident." " Okay, okay, okay!" " Damn it!" "And now you're trying to suck up to me to get my money for your sleazy motel Ponzi scheme?" "The thing is, I got the motel for practically nothing, right?" "So, when it's up and running, it's all profit." "I'd pay you back in three months, four at the most." "Yeah, well, you haven't paid me back from the last time I lent you money." "That was mainly for Marcel, wasn't it?" "I mean, I just..." "I think if you saw the improvements I've done, you'd jump right in." "You know, Ken, I'm really trying here." "I'm really trying." "You know, Marcel would have been 36 last month." " Yeah, I know that." " Do you know that?" "I miss her, too, Bill, a lot, okay?" "Okay." "I have to drive Edith home." "$18,643 on the dot." "For a savings account, I'm gonna need a government-issued I.D., and I put some X's there to show you where to sign at." " May I have a bank book?" " Oh." "Thank you." "You live with Mr. Mccauley over in South Cedar?" "He banks here, too." "You're the one taking care of his granddaughter." "Yeah." "See Sabitha is in class with my grandsons." "they're twins, both football players." "Yep." "Oh, gosh, poor little thing..." "Sabitha, I mean." "Well... losing her mother in that terrible accident, right?" "And then having her father go off to prison like that." " Just..." " It's none of my business." "Thank you." "I'll be home at 5:30." "Yes?" "My dad left this note for you in the letter he wrote me." "Oh." "Okay." "Thank you." "Stephen." "S-T-E-P-H-E-N." "Hateship, friendship, courtship, loveship, marriage, hateship..." "Friendship!" "Shit." "It's friendship." "This woman says she can reach orgasm just by shaking her leg." "The only thing worse than friendship is hateship." "Wait, this other woman started masturbating when she was 8 years old, rubbing up against some doll she slept with." "Do you think Stevie's ever sex?" "I heard he screwed Robin Simpson with his socks on." "Oh, my God." "So, what do you think about?" "How do you do it?" " Shut up." " What?" "It's totally normal." "Yeah, totally." "'Cause you're my best friend, I'll tell you." "My parents have a handheld shower in their bathroom," " so whenever I'm alone in the house..." " Okay, thank you!" "TMI!" "No more." "What?" "It's totally normal." "Everyone does it." " Totally normal." " It is." "Hold on a second!" "I don't know." "Let me just..." "Get... get that." "Oh, God." "Just..." " God, she's so annoying." " Do you think she heard?" "Come in!" "I told grandpa I'd clean up later." "I need your father's address." "Why?" "I have a card for him." "Why?" "I'm just responding to the note that he wrote me." "You know, I'm going right by the post office." "I can mail that for you." "Thank you." "Oh, it's not a problem at all." "I go right by there, so..." "There you go." " See you tomorrow." " Bye." "Bye." "Did you have a good day?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Thank you." " I waited for you to open it." " Oh, my God." ""Dear Mr. Ken Gaudette,"" ""I just thought I would write and send my thanks to you"" ""for the nice things you said in your note,"" ""in which you included in your daughter's note..." Ever hear of grammar?" ""I'm grateful for you saying that since some people"" ""feel that a person like me that they do not know the..."" ""the background of is beyond the pale." What?" "This doesn't make sense." "She capitalized "beyond the pale."" "Isn't that... that means, like, the other side of the tracks." ""I was born in Ames,"" ""but my mother and my brother and me"" ""moved to Twin View Heights when I was a girl."" "No." "Blah, blah." ""Then I cared for Mrs. Willits." Blah, blah." ""I'm afraid I've bored you long enough."" " You can say that again." " No kidding." ""Thank you for your good opinion and for taking me to the restaurant."" ""It was a pleasure to be included."" ""Your friend, Johanna Parry."" "Say something about her beautiful hair." "This has to be realistic." ""I was so happy to see that you... underlined 'your friend'"" "Someone like me, with a checkered past, can use all the friends he can get." "Sometimes I think, 'who is my friend?" "'" ""Then comes your letter."" "That's boring." "Well, we can't just immediately write that he wants to suck her titties." "Okay, how about you say something like," ""you should wear your hair back more often so the world can see your pretty face"?" " How about that?" " That's good." "Yeah." "Stevie!" ""P.S., let's continue this correspondence"" ""through e-mail." "It's much faster."" ""My address is kengaudette..."" ""And we'll save money on stamps."" "Why did you have to put the "12 step" thing?" "For authenticity." "What?" "Recovery is a good thing." "I'll talk to you later." " Why are you staring at me?" " Oh, I'm not..." "I don't mean to." "Why are you even in here?" " Came to..." " Yeah." "Okay." "We were just kissing, okay?" "Normal people do that." "That was my wife's furniture." "My wife gave it to my daughter when she and Ken first got married." "After his poor judgment killed my daughter, I..." "I took that furniture back." "There's no reason for him to have it." "Why should he?" "It just sits out here." "It seems like a waste." "Maybe he could use it in his hotel lobby." "He couldn't run a one-pump gas station." "That one doesn't work." " When will you be finished?" " Well, you have to sign up." "First name." "Click the mouse for the last." "And then your password." " My own word?" " Your own word." "We're staying near the White House." " Is that boy going?" " His name's Stevie, and, no, he's not going." "He went last year, so you don't have to worry." "Oh, okay, I won't worry." "Sabitha, is that thing surgically attached to your hand?" "Thank you, Johanna." "Put that away." "Come back." "The ad says 10:00 to 3:00." "You don't have to get there exactly at 10:00." "If I want the job, I do." "And you're gonna breathe paint fumes all day?" "That only pays like $8 an hour." "Well, it's better than sitting around watching TV all day." "My brother manages a huge food warehouse." "They're always hiring forklifters, and they pay them like 20 bucks an hour." "I don't know how to drive a forklift." "He'll be back in three weeks." "You'll make a lot more money." " He isn't gonna hire me." " Yeah." "I'll tell him to." "I got to check this out first." "Just let yourself out when you're ready." "You have the 30 bucks you owe me for dinner last night?" "That's not even including the blow." ""I'm sitting here drinking a glass of Chardonnay,"" ""wishing I could hold you"" ""tight in my arms."" "In reality, he's probably sitting in his underwear somewhere, drinking warm beer." ""I must say goodbye."" ""And the only way I can do it is to imagine you"" ""reading this in your nightgown," ""thinking about me,"" ""as you drift off to sleep."" "Come on, grandpa!" "We're going to be late!" "Hi." "I came to get my black sweater." "I texted you like five times." "You... you told me I could borrow it." "I'm sure your grandfather can buy you one." "Why'd you tell Melissa and Jessica that I couldn't afford to go to D.C.?" " You told me you couldn't afford it." " I didn't mean for you to tell everyone." "That's the bitchiest thing you've ever done to me." "God, I didn't know it was some big secret." "If I would have known, I wouldn't have said..." "If you weren't so stupid and selfish, you'd understand that I don't want the whole school knowing." "Look, Edith, no one at school cares." "You're so evil." "Are you kidding?" "She loves this." "Actually, it's pretty mean." ""You're beautiful..."" "Hello." "May I help you?" "Yes, I would like to try on the suit in the window, the shiny one." "Oh, that's a lovely suit." "Yes." "Oh, it's so expensive." "Well, it's very fine silk." "It's Italian." "Well, of course you'll need your nylons and your heels and some lipstick, but with some tailoring, it might work." "How does it feel?" "Is it comfortable?" "The suit feels fine." "There's nothing the matter with the suit." "Sometimes that's just the way it is." "You never know till you try something on." "Hold on." "Why don't you slip into this, just for the heck of it?" "Come out here and look at it in the big mirror." "Well, I better take it off so you can wrap it up." "Wonderful." "It's probably what I'm gonna be married in." "You know what why I got you a red car?" "Because red cars get the most tickets." "So, if you get any tickets, you have to pay for it yourself." "I won't be getting any tickets." " Hi, Johanna." " Oh, hi." "I'll start dinner right away." " I got this for my dad for Christmas." " Oh, that's nice." "I got this one for Edith." "She really wanted one." "Are you wearing makeup?" " Oh, you look nice, Johanna." " Oh, it's just..." "No." "Here." "Here." "Try this." "It's more natural." "Thank you." "Edith." "I got this for you." "Thanks." "I talked to Jessica and Melissa." "Neither one of them said anything about why you didn't go on the trip." "They're not like that." "Julie and Marie didn't go 'cause their parents couldn't pay." "Are you gonna talk about this all day?" "I won't." "Sorry." "Stop bragging about your car." "It's kind of nauseating." "I wasn't bragging." "Justin asked me about it, and I answered." "What about the pictures on Facebook?" "That's bragging." "If you got a car, you'd be doing the same thing." "So, there's a table, six chairs, a bed, dresser, sofa, coffee table, end tables, side..." "I'm sorry." "I can't write that fast." "I can't..." "There's no kitchen stuff." "It's just one bedroom." "It's only going to Chicago." "All right..." "Well, if this is it, you're probably looking at... $2,300, $2,500." "Seems like a lot." "When's the last time you had a bunch of furniture moved?" "You have somebody in Chicago who's gonna be looking out for it when it gets there?" "Okay, we'll have my guys here first thing Monday morning." "After 9:00." "They can't be here before 9:00." "After 9:30, actually. 9:30." "Okay." " You know, we'll send you a bill for this." " I'd rather pay now. $2,300?" "That's fine." "That's good." "Hello?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Hello?" "Oh, you're awake." "What are you doing here?" "Didn't you get my e-mail?" "I don't have e-mail." "I sent you e-mails." "I don't even have a computer." "Just so you know, I've been sick." "That's why this place isn't so clean." "This stove hasn't been cleaned in years." "Hey!" "There are no buses this time of night." "You should just come back inside." "You're gonna freeze out here." "You know, we can just make up the couch and sort this out tomorrow, okay?" "How are you feeling?" "I can't really tell." "A little better maybe." "You're swallowing your phlegm." "Don't do that." "It's not good for you." "Spit it out." "You'll get in trouble with your kidneys by swallowing it." "You didn't find the coffee, did you?" "What are you doing?" "Cleaning the floor." "It could use some wax after." "You're never gonna feel better if you keep smoking like that." "You know, anyone could have been tricked by those two." "Teenager girls are pretty nasty." "You really don't have to scrub the floor." "Just trying to keep busy." " When do you have to be back at Bill's?" " I wasn't planning on going back." "You really don't have a computer?" "No, I..." "I want to get one." "You okay?" "Look, I don't know what happened." "I mean," "I did put a note for you in with the letter I sent to Sabitha, but I didn't send anything else." "I'm sorry." "Hi." "Hi." "I'm Chloe." " Who are you?" " I'm Johanna Parry." "Ken's friend." "Ken's friend from... where?" "From Iowa." "I was taking care of his daughter." "Wow." "His daughter?" "Her name is Sabitha." " Where is he?" " Sleeping." " He's ill." " Ill." " Yeah." " Right." "It's gonna be totally fun." "Everyone's gonna be there." "Polo just got back from Seattle." "I'm sick." "I practically coughed up a lung this morning." "That Swedish guy is supposed to bring some of this "x"" "that doesn't have any speed in it." "You do actually look sick." " You should probably just sleep." " That's what I've been saying." "Johanna Parry?" "You're late." "You were supposed to be here this morning." "Everything looks good." "Thank you." "Let's get this one last..." " Come by later if you feel better." " Probably not gonna happen." "I'll call you." "I can set a place for you if you want to stay for dinner." " What's going on?" " That's the furniture." "Does Bill know you're here?" "Sabitha?" "I didn't tell them." "And Bill doesn't know you took the furniture, does he?" "No, he doesn't." "You just... you just took it?" "How'd you do that?" "Mr. McCauley was at work, and Sabitha was at school." "And now it's all here." " There's no damage to any of it." " No." "No, I bet there's not." "I bet he's fucking freaking out." "Here." "Here." "I'll do that." "She probably just got sick of it here." "I always drive people away." " Where do you want these?" " Just right here is fine." "All right." "Maybe we can have your father out again." "And this time, he can stay over." " I know you're trying with him." " I am." "I don't know how Johanna ever cleaned this." "Elbow grease." "I was in the middle of renovating when I got sick." "So, I'm gonna put in new carpeting and plumbing." "I just need a bit more cash." "You know you can't go back there now." "He'll have you arrested for stealing that furniture." "I'll figure something out." "You should take an aspirin before you go to bed." "You look a little pale." " You'll be all right in here again?" " Yeah." "What about your family?" "Can you stay with them?" "I'll be out of your hair tomorrow." "Actually, you know what?" "You can't leave, anyway." "You're an outlaw now." "I thought you might need that." "I'll see you in the morning." "Gone, just like that, thousands of dollars worth of antique furniture." "That's horrible." "Are you gonna file a police report?" "'Cause you sure should." "Mr. McCauley, I..." "I probably shouldn't be saying this, but... she withdrew $21,000 in cash last week." "No one here has ever done that." "Well, I knew the moment I met her that there was something a little, you know, peculiar with her." "But I suppose you miss having someone around, right?" "I miss my furniture." "Yeah." "Oh, gosh, I'm sorry." "I think we're all set here." "We're gonna have Stan review all this, and then we'll get it to you in your office" " early next week." " All right." " Okay." " Well." " Thank you very much, Eileen." " Thank you, Mr. McCauley." " All right." " Right." "And, you know, I have to drop some documents off down at Beckman's, and there's this new restaurant I've been checking out down there." "Quinn Davis has eaten there." "Maybe, if you wanted to, you could join me for lunch." "That is the nicest offer, but I..." "I really can't leave." " Well, thank you for your help, Eileen." " Thank you, Mr. McCauley." " Bye-bye." " Bye-bye." "Oh, you're up." "Thought you were gone for good." "May I?" "Got you some fresh milk." "Sit down." "I'll bring you some aspirin and some juice." "I'll get dinner started." "Need some help?" "No." "I'm okay." "I cared for Mrs. Willits since I was 15." "She needed me there, so she didn't let me do a lot of stuff outside the house." "She didn't let you?" "Well, I went to Iowa city with my neighbor, but then my neighbor moved." "That appointment I have in the morning... it's with my probation officer." "And then I have a narcotics anonymous meeting at 4:00." "You know I spent time in prison, right?" "It's none of my business." "I crashed a speed boat with Sabitha and her mom..." "Marcel." "Marcel was killed." "I know." "You know." "It was an accident." "I was drunk." "And high." "Yeah, but it was still an accident." "Oh, hey." "I brought Chinese." "We ate already." "I got an early day tomorrow." "Kung pao chicken, spring rolls, moo shu pork, and the pancakes." "What are you doing, babe?" "What are you doing?" "Hanging out with "little house on the prairie"?" " Don't say that." " In your P.J.s?" "Having a sleepover or whatever?" "Listen, why don't you just give me back the key and go, okay?" "You still owe me 200 bucks." "Sorry about that." " You remember them." " No, I don't." "Oh, they had..." "They had eight kids, and they all played different instruments." "And then they'd all play those corny songs at the fair." "I don't remember 'em!" "Well, one year, they had a float in the parade." "One of the daughters fell off and she broke her little finger and they came to me, wanting me to sue the whole damn town." "Okay, wait." "Wait." "Wait." "I remember them." "Did they have these big old buckteeth?" "Oh, God, I'm horrible." "I don't know what you talkin' about, ma'am." " You're horrible!" " Yes, I am." "Wait." "Wait." "The blonde one... remember?" "She always sang that same old song." "What was that?" "Hello, my baby," "Hello, my honey, hello, my ragtime gal..." "Oh, gosh." " Well..." " Well..." "I guess I should be going." " Oh, okay." " Yeah." "All right." "Yes, of course." "I'm..." "I'm really happy you came." "Thank you." " Oh, no, no, no, thank you." "Thank you." " No, seriously." " Thank you." " Thank you." "Thank you." " All right, there you go." "You in?" " Yep." "And don't be a stranger." " No." " All right?" "Okay." "You know, I wouldn't want this to ruin our business relationship." "No, me neither, not at all." "Lift you!" "Yes, right here." "How was the movie?" "It's past midnight." "Supper ran late." ""Really" late." "Really late." "Do you smell like perfume?" "I can't tell whether you smell like Budweiser or Michelob." "I do not know what you are talking about." "Well, I don't know what you're talking about." "Where's Edith tonight?" "She's probably out screwing Stevie in the back of his brother's crappy little jeep." "Either someone on the bus must have stolen it, or I lost it." "I'm really very good with money." "Yeah, I had my wallet stolen on the bus once." "But they only took $400, and there was a lot more in there." "I know because I counted it when I paid the movers." "I told you I couldn't pay you back for that if that's what you're hinting at." "No." "No, I just lost $400." "I'll be back later, okay?" "Are you feeling well enough?" "Well, I still feel like shit, but I can't miss a meeting with my P.O." "Unless I got all kinds of bullshit medical documentations and..." " Did you take an aspirin?" " Yeah." "Hey, it wouldn't surprise me if Chloe took your money." "I mean, she's pretty fucking sneaky." "She is a junkie, so..." "But if she comes over, don't say anything." "I'll..." "I'll handle it." "Hey, everybody, this is Craig Bruin." "Welcome back to the morning radio, live from Chicago." "Today the weather is..." "let's just say it's cold." "Wow, that smells great." " What you making?" " Biscuits and beef stew." "It's ready." "You can start." "I could get used to this." " Oh, shit." " Sorry." "I thought you were getting sick." " No, I was throwing this out." " Sorry." "Are you awake?" "I..." "I know I'm an idiot." "And I..." "I just wanted to say..." "That..." ""You should wear your hair back more often so the world can see your pretty face."" " This is embarrassing." " No, it's not." "You do have a pretty face." " I don't want to read any more." " Come on." ""I've known since that afternoon at Astro burger that you and I will be together."" ""I haven't stopped thinking about you."" "Well, I did think about you." " Not like that." " Well..." "I do now, all the time." "They wrote all about your past and... your time in prison and your problems and... said how you don't have many friends." "And how did you respond to that?" "I said I was your friend." "I..." "I don't know how long I can keep this up." "It's Christmas." "Don't you want to get up?" "I'm fine here." "Electronic cigarette." "It's to help you quit smoking." "Yeah." "I got that." "My two girls taking care of me at Christmas?" "Hey, you know what?" "If I get that job, maybe we can celebrate Christmas again, send Sabitha a better gift and get you something good." "I don't need anything." "Well, you need breakfast." "I'm gonna make it, okay?" "It's got to be noon, doesn't it?" "Thank you." "We go to the bottom of the fourth with the score St. Louis 2, Chicago nothing." "It'll be 2, 3, and 4 in the Chicago order, Bell, Pena, and Johnson against the St. Louis righty, Murphy." "The 1-0 to Bell, fast-ball strike at the knees to even it up 1-1." "Bell leads off here, but the reason Teruso likes him in two hole... the ability to hit and run..." "excellent contact hitter." "The 1-1..." "Bell has swung off." "Soft fly into right center." "Will Paul..." "I think we should go with brown one." "It's shinier." "It'll be easier to clean." "Okay, sounds good." "Oh, that's probably Rachel." "Will you tell her I'll be there in 20 minutes?" "Yeah." "We have to finish the walls in 1B today," " just the walls." " Okay." " Hello?" " Is this Ken Gaudette's phone?" "Yes." "Hi, Rachel." "He's gonna be on his way shortly." "I'm so sorry." "Johanna?" "Is that you?" "Yes." "Why are you answering my dad's phone?" "He didn't say anything about pressing charges, right?" "No." "No, no, he won't." "Shit." "Here he comes." "Okay." "Hey, Bill." "The one-two pitch is a curve ball, and strike three." "Smells like you're barbecuing." "You trying to get back in prison in time for softball season?" "Hi." "We're just bringing back some furniture." "Johanna thought it was mine." " It's not your furniture." " I think that's up for debate." "I explained the history to you." "...as we heard toward the summer months..." "Hey, sweetie." "You're, like, with her now, aren't you?" "Yeah." "If you and Edith weren't so good at writing letters." "...was a stillwater pioneer at the high school there before he went to Oklahoma state." "So, 1-0, the fast ball..." " I'll be right back." " Okay." "Berkins centers in, and here's the one-two pitch." "You boys want to help with the furniture?" "...and roll to the wall, as Dsango's around first." "He is headed into second with a..." " Get out." " Sabitha, look..." " Are you deaf?" "Get out!" " Look, I..." "I understand..." "If you're trying to bond with me, just forget it and get out." " My father..." " I don't care." "Your father's trying." " I know that you're mad at him." " I'm not mad at him." "Why do you get to live with him?" "We're gonna finish unloading the furniture." "He wears that sweatshirt all the time, the one that you gave him." "I like your shoes." "Thank you." "Hey, Sabitha?" "We were thinking that maybe you should come back to Chicago with us and... you know, stay for the rest of the summer." "Wow." "What an amazing offer." "Or whatever you think is right, Bill." "I mean, it would just be for the summer." "Do you want to?" "You'd come back here in the fall and finish school and..." "We'd love to have you." "...but a stop sign awaits him, and he'll scramble back to the bag." "Where you going?" "To pack my stuff." "...didn't have that much of a lead." "That may have cost him." "Her car will remain here." "Okay." "Yeah." "He's like mowing the lawn, doesn't have a shirt on, of course." "He's all wet." "She's really cute in the video, too." "She's got, like, you know, the bangs and high heels." "She's washing the car, trying to get his attention." "It's a bit obnoxious." "What does this have to do with the Olympics?" "Oh, the swim team made a video to it and put it on the Internet." "It went, like, completely viral." "You think my dad will ever pay you back?" "He and I are working on this place together." "Yeah, but you're paying for most of it, right?" "We're working together." "This smells so gross." "You ever think of all the people who've had sex in here, maybe even on this carpet?" "There was this thing on the news once where they went in hotel rooms and..." "Johanna?" "Johanna?" "Johanna?" "You could always name it Ken after my dad if it's a boy, but..." "How about something different?" " Omar." "That's kind of cute, different." " What if it's a girl?" "Allie's a cute girl name." "Hey." "Guess what." "Rachel quit, so you're looking at the new assistant manager." " That's great." " Yeah." "I'm gonna make two bucks more an hour." " What's wrong with her?" " I don't know." "You don't think you should have another test?" "The kit had two tests." "What about insurance?" "Do you know how much it costs to have a baby in the hospital?" "No." "I'm just not ready to have to another kid." "I mean, I barely just got my shit together." "You know that 400 bucks you said you lost and I said Chloe probably took it?" "I know you took it." "And I know you probably spent it on drugs." "I didn't spent it all on drugs." "You should have told me you knew." "I was waiting for you to do that." "And you didn't." "And then after awhile, it just... it didn't matter." "It didn't matter?" "Gee, thanks." "You're gonna have to stop, you know." " Stop what?" " Whatever it is you take." " I hardly touch it." " I'm not stupid." "That was it?" "Yeah." "You're married now?" "Yeah." " Here, will you take a picture?" " Yeah." "Got it." "Where'd you get that?" "So, that was good, right?" "You learned how to paint walls and ceilings, pull up carpeting, do grouting, and help pick out the tiles." "Cheap labor." "It's not like solon was any more glamorous." "I agree." " You'll be okay on the bus?" " Yeah, don't sit next to any weirdos." "That's impossible." "Thanks for helping my dad." " Have a safe trip." " Thanks." "See you soon." "I don't know why you don't believe me." "I told you, I gave it to the mechanic." " All $600?" " Yeah, all $600." "Pretty much." " I got the receipt somewhere." " Oh, just wait." "It's okay, buddy." "It's okay." "I'll take him." "What's on his face?" "Okay, you ready?" "We're finally gonna get this." "I think it's magic marker." "Oh, I just want to bite his little toes off." "Oh, you just look like butter." "I just want to eat you up." "Yum, yum, yum." " Oh, what's that on his face?" " It's lipstick." "Look at that." "What is that?" "Here." "Take him." "I'll go get us some punch." "Will you grab the wipes out of there?" "You know, Ken, I've been known to hold a baby now and then." " Okay?" " Yeah." "Yeah, this hand." "Oh, don't wake-up, pumpkin." "Don't wake-up." "What about something more piratical?" "Engineering?" "I think I'm gonna major in premed, and I really want to go to Cornell for medical school after, but I think I'll do a junior year abroad first, possibly in like France or Italy or England, something like that." " Cool." " Congratulations." "Thank you." "I was a history major, and you see what that got me." "Yeah, well, I really want to specialize in dermatology because it allows you a pretty good schedule so I can have kids." "I really want a girl." "So, hopefully I'll be married by the time I'm 26." "That way, by the time they go to college, I'll still have time to, you know, live a little." "What do you want?" "I have what I want." "Here." "You go up." "Okay."
