"** [theme]" "The prince and the princess will live together in this magical land, and you can always come and visit them on the moon, tiger." "But remember, if you tell anybody, you'll never be able to find it again." "And if Mommy and Daddy eat all their lima beans, will you take us with you?" " Hi." " Hi." " Hey, pumpkin." " Hi, Daddy." " Hi." "Hi, Lauren." " Hi." "You guys having fun?" " Well, I am." " Hi." "[Hope] Hi." "Hi." "You're home early." "Uh, yeah." "Uh, Hope and I, we just, uh" " We have to-- - ...get some things out." " ...discuss some things." " Yeah." "I mean, it's nothing serious or anything." "It's just" "Some of them are sort of pressing." "Yeah." "Yeah." "Shall we?" "Uh, be right back." "We'll" " We'll be down here." "See how she definitely knows?" "Well, I'm sure she runs into a lot of this in her line of work." "Other couples make babies." "I loved your message." "All I said that my temperature was up and that I needed you." "Drew says he knows exactly how you feel." "He had a temperature last week, and he's still achy." "Well, I ache for you." "Listen, Lauren's got to leave in 15 minutes." "15 minutes?" "I'm not 16 anymore, Hope." "Oh, thank God." "Yeah, lucky for you, huh?" "What are you doing?" "I'm cold." "You cold?" "Anyways, I'm leaving the office." "Drentell breaks up this meeting with a client so he can yell at the guy who details his car." "What?" "Nothing." "Hmm." "See?" "We should do this more often." "Yeah." "It's 4:00 in the afternoon, so I can actually see you." "Who are you?" "I'm your wife." "Kiss me." "What?" "Nothing." "I'm not allowed to look at my wife?" "Hmm?" "The earth doesn't have to move every time, you know." "Sure it does." "Mmm." "Michael." "[Lauren laughs]" "Listen, this is our house." "We're allowed to do this." "No, I know." "It just feels weird." "We can't waste another month." "[Hope laughs]" "Shut up, Hope." "See, women are lucky." "They don't have these moving parts to wear out." "Well, we'll just lie here and not think about it." "I have to stay like this for a half an hour." " You bet." " [Lauren] Hope, I got to go!" "Just a minute." "Have fun." "[Janey] Hi, Mommy." "Hi, Hope." "Do you need some help?" "Uh, no, I'm okay." " Whoa, whoa." " Oh." " Geez." " Thanks." "Oh, I got stuck in the rain." "But you know what, Janey bird?" "I did not forget your pretzel sticks." "Yeah." "There you go, sweetie." "We've been drawing pictures of the sun." "Oh, how nice." "Uh, let's see." "There are pesticides in that." "Yeah, well, when you get your license, you can go all over town to three different stores looking for organic spaghetti sauce." "It's too late for me." "I grew up on pesticides and radiation." "I practically glow in the dark." " Very funny." " [Janey babbles]" "I read your article on ozone." " I liked it." " Thanks." "But it's kind of scary, you know?" "Seems like we're running out of everything that's good." "Do you need me to stay longer?" "Actually, I was wondering if you could sit tonight." " Um" " What?" "I can't tonight." "With Bernard, we're going out tonight." "Oh, Bernard." "This must be serious." " Is it three weeks now?" " Almost four." "He's picking me up here." " I'm sorry about tonight." " Oh, that's okay." "I mean, you're talking about a date with destiny." "I was just talking about dinner." "Oh, he's so intense." "And we are completely and totally telepathic." "He's got these beautiful shadows on his face and these eyes that kind of pierce right through me." "Hey, do you think that maybe you could French braid my hair like the way you wore yours to the party?" "Sure." "Thanks." "Why do I feel like I'd rather be having a root canal done right now?" "because if Miles hates this idea, he's going to hate it forever, and a root canal only lasts an hour, and you get drugs." "Huh." "Listen, I'm going to go out on a Milk Dud run." "I got to get out of here." " Elliot." " Oh, Miles." "Want some Milk Duds?" "No, thank you." "I'm not really a Milk Duds kind of guy." "So, gentlemen, Kenwa phones tomorrow 10:00?" "Couldn't you just tell us now?" "That would be presuming I'd had a chance" " to look at your proposal." " Excuse me." "Hi." "Hey." " Hey." "How you doing." " Hey." "Good to see you." "Hey." "Uh, Miles, this is Gary Shepherd." "Gary, this is Miles Drentell." "Hey." "Uh, nice to meet you." "Good to meet you." "10:00?" " Bye, Miles." " Excuse me." "Bye." "Sure." "Wahoo." "What charm." "Hmm." "So, uh, Shepherd, don't you think it's about time you started wearing long pants, huh?" "That's a tragically hip tie, Mike." "What did you think of El Excellente?" "Oh, this place is great, you know?" "Why didn't you tell me about the incredibly beautiful android receptionist" " up front?" " Only the best for Miles." "Yeah, he's a guy's guy, you know?" "[Mike] So, Dad, any day now." "Yeah." "What, are you nervous?" "Just remember your Lamaze." "It'll give you something to do while she's having the baby." "Meanwhile, you're going to quit outraging the public morals" " by then or what?" " Not if I can help it." "Really?" "Yeah." "Why should we ruin what we have with marriage?" "Oh, that's a good one." "Now, why is he such a big fan of the conventional nuclear family?" "Beats me." "Personally, I like stretching the envel" "Drew!" "Hey." "[whistling]" "You know, in stable societies" " Oh, no." " Oh, yes, yes." "In stable societies, marriage is an economic agreement." "It has nothing to do with love and sex." "I mean, in fact, they use it as a tool to suppress dangerous sexual impulses so that lust and passion don't interfere" " with the rate of production." " Amen." "Oh, come on." "You don't really believe that." "Don't I?" "Oh, right there." "Oh, yeah, huh?" "Oh, you want to put yours up?" "Oh, big girl." "There you go." "There you go." "Oh, very good." "Yeah." "Very good, huh?" "See the Pleiades?" "Pleiades." "Mm, I think that's such a pretty sound," " Hi." " ...don't you?" "Hi." "I kept her up late for you." "Sorry." "Drentell came gunning for us, so we had to plan a new line of attack." "You know, there's some dinner, sort of." "Hey, button." "Hey." "Hi." "Oh." "You remember me?" "Hmm?" " She's tired." " Yeah?" "Well, just think, Janey." "You can wake up now, and you'll think you've been kidnapped by a band of gypsies." " Let's get some PJs, Janey." " All right." "Yeah, I think it's really, really bedtime now." "Give me your right foot." "Man." "She asleep?" "Finally." "You know, I think maybe she'd go to sleep a little easier if she stopped taking a nap." "In the oven." "Was I supposed to take your car in today?" " Yes." " I'm sorry." "I'm going to have to take it in next week." "Uh, can you hand me that pan, please?" " I'll do these, honey." " No, that's okay." "Thanks." "So, um... what do you think about the nap?" "I think everybody should have a sleepy mat and a blankie and a Fig Newton at 2:00." "She still needs her nap." "Want a back rub?" "A back rub?" "A real back rub or a Michael version of a back rub?" "Well...you look so smooth." "Mmm." "I just can't switch gears that fast." "There's some things that I got to finish." "Okay." "I'm dead." "Come up." "Yeah, I will." "Come up soon." "I'll be there." "Good night." "Good night." "That girl's never coming up for air." "Hope, they're going to see you." "Are you kidding?" "I really wanted to run before I met with Elliot." " Just a minute." " This is ridiculous." "I'm trapped in my own house because some prepubescent babysitter is having sex with a Hell's Angel in front of the whole neighborhood." "including Mr. Cenzio, who's probably having a coronary about now." "They are not having sex." "They're just kissing." "Do you know how lucky we are to have a babysitter who comes on Saturdays?" "That motorcycle's bigger than my car." "You're jealous." "Listen, I remember guys like this from high school." "I got to be Vice President of my junior class." "They got to have sex." "Yeah, well, Lauren says he's very sensitive." "Go." "Uh, hi, Mr. Steadman." "Hi, Lauren." "This is Bernard." "Bernard, this is Mr. Steadman." " Hi." " Hi." "Nice meeting you." "[wheels skid] [engine stops] [engine restarts] [wheels screech]" "God." "Can Drew really be this boring?" "There aren't even any dirty magazines in here." "We aren't supposed to work on Saturdays." "Supposed to play ball." "So here's what we'll do." "We'll come up with three more expletively sexual uses for a cordless phone," " Then we'll play ball." " Gentlemen." "I trust you're not missing your favorite cartoons this morning." "Our wives are taping them for us." "Isn't it more relaxed here on weekends?" "I find I get a lot more work done." "Heading up to Bucks County later." " Ever hunt?" " Several times a week." "You should try it sometime." "So how's the new new Kenwa approach coming?" " Swimmingly." " Hmm." "Too bad about your New Yorker idea." "It's really very droll." "But we're not targeting TheNew Yorker, are we?" "Oh, that's all right." "We got lots of skin for you, so" "You don't think people are smarter than that?" "Really." "You don't think people are beyond that and they'd rather just laugh at themselves?" "Nobody laughs at himself, Michael." "First rule of advertising." "Have a good day, gentlemen." "I must shoot some quail." " All right." " All right." "Here we go." "A guy on a huge Harley" "Oh, Mike-- ...and he's ripping the clothes off a teenage babysitter." "You got motorcycle on the brain, man." "She's 16, for God's sakes." "You know the worst part?" "I realized that watching them together," "I realized nobody's going to look at me like that again." "Mike, Mike, the other day, I was walking through Penn." "I discovered a whole new affliction for old age." "Worse than balding." "Invisible to teenage girls." "Huh." "That would look good with black stretch pants." " Yeah." "You know what?" " What?" "I want something really delicate and sweet and sexy to wear under my white suit." "Something like this." "Oh, am I out of real life here?" "I mean, do you wear this on the street?" "Well, I wouldn't exactly walk down Broad Street in a garter belt and stockings," " would you, Ellyn?" " Only on national holidays." "I don't know." "I'd feel so on display." "Exactly." "I don't know." "With Michael, it's one thing." "He would laugh at me, but, you know, in public?" "You got to do it for fun, you know?" "Dating isn't what it used to be, Hope." "You spend the whole evening being witty and sexy and fantastic, and then what are you supposed to do, whip out an ammo pack of condoms at the last minute?" "There aren't any single men anyway who are cute, straight, healthy, nice." "You can't give up, though." "You got to believe in the possibility that something great is going to happen." "so what you do is you try to feel privately sexy, even though the rest of the world has gone sort of green around the gills." "Hey, do you like this?" "This is pretty." "Am I hopelessly out of real life?" "Yes, but we like you anyway." "I mean, in 1964, this was an ugly garment that old women wore." "What a difference 25 years makes." "Okay, what about this?" "Ellyn, I think this is more you." "You're right." "You know, at Woolworth's, right across the street, they have white cotton bikini underpants." "Three for $5.00." "[Melissa] Get out of here." "You were." "You were flirting with some guy who's obviously buying underwear for his girlfriend." " Oh, Melissa." " He was not." "Who's that on your front lawn?" "Looks like she's got her hands full." "Oh, let me out." "Let me out here." " What are you doing?" " He's in trouble." "** [loud rock on radio]" "Where's Janey?" "She's asleep." "I just checked on her." "I want to talk to you inside now." "[music stops]" "You never would have heard her if she had cried" " with that music on." " I'm sorry." "I checked on her twice." "I didn't know he was coming over." "Look, I know that we've never discussed this, and I guess-- [sigh]-- that we should have." "I don't know this boy." "Look, I'm really sorry." "I just" " I wanted you to meet him." "We had" " We had something to talk about." "Janey must be your first priority and your only priority when you are here." "I love Janey." "I would never do anything to hurt her." "I know that." "I guess." "Something happen?" "His mom." "She" "She got this job at a nursing home somewhere." "I don't know, really far away from here." "And Bernard wants to quit school because he doesn't want to be away from me." "Do you love this guy?" "Yeah." "You should talk to your mother about this." "No, you don't understand." "I love him." "And I want to be with him." "I have to go." "Wait" " I mean wait before you do anything." "I don't think you're ready to have your whole life happen to you just now." "He is my whole life." "I think she's having nightmares again." "She was never really completely awake." "So Lauren wasn't even in the house." "She's in love." "What can I do?" "Oh." "Drentell try to do a number on us again today." "Oh, yeah?" "I don't know what I'm gonna do." "Uh, God, I am so tired." "[groans]" "Want me to rub your back?" "Would you?" "What?" "Nothing." "So you told Lauren this guy is not supposed to show his face around here again, right?" "Well, not in those words, no." "But I told her." "It's just they are so overwhelmed by their bodies and each other." "I don't know,love." "Can you imagine being 16 again?" "Wasn't all bad." "It wasn't?" "I wish we could" "Well, I wish we had more time to talk." "Well, no, not to talk, but to" "We'll go out to dinner tomorrow night, okay?" "Okay?" " Okay." " Okay." "God, you look pretty." "Why did we come to this party?" "You know something?" "I really want you." "We'll just stay for half a hour." " Half a hour?" " Yeah." "I can't wait half a hour." "What are you doing?" "What do you mean what am I doing?" "Oh, what am I doing?" "We can't." "Somebody might come in." "They'll never know." "The door is not even locked." "Simone de Beauvoir and Jean-Paul Sartre really had the right idea." "They lived next door to each other for 50 years." "Mmm, good idea." "What's the weirdest place you ever made love?" "Um, oh, when I had a boyfriend before Elliot, and we tried to make love on the ski slopes in New Hampshire." "Boy, did that not work." "Michael and I did it on the train in France near Montreau." "There were all these tunnels and flashing lights." "It was incredible." "Oh, why does all the good stuff always go away?" "Oh, that's easy." "There's never any time." "I mean, you've got kids." "Either one kid's sick, or another kid is sick, you know?" "I mean, then you're either worrying about money, or you worry about work." "Yeah, we worry about work." "They obsess about it." "Yeah, but they worry about the kids, and we obsess about that." "I know I do." "But there used to be a time when all I had to do was look at Michael and everything would fall away." "I wanted him so much." "Michael's crazy about you." "No, not crazy." "Not anymore." "How long have you been married?" "Five and a half years." "Oh." "It comes with the territory." "Hope, your babysitter called." "Everything okay?" "She said everything was fine." "She just wants you to call her back." " Great." "Thanks, Michelle." " Okay." "Isn't there anybody else you could've called?" "No, there's no one." "And I wouldn't have asked unless it was really important." "Well, how far is it?" "It's not too far." "It's just past Lansdale." "Lansdale?" "That's 20 miles from here." "But, Hope, I'm never gonna see him again." "Oh, man." "I'll take Janey." "Why don't you go?" "I'll tell Michael where you are." "This is not even good." "Just because it's vulgar and sexy doesn't mean it's good." "You know, Mike, you're right." "You're right." "I think women should stop wearing bathing suits like this to protest this kind of exploitation." "As a matter of fact," "I think Hope should stop wearing bathing suits like this." "You think you guys are ever gonna start liking each other again?" "I like Hope." "Oh, yeah, but do I?" "What?" "Whoa." " Nothing, nothing, nothing." " Whoa, whoa." "Never mind." "I love my wife." "You wouldn't understand anyway." "Oh yeah, I wouldn't understand these kind of things." "What?" "No, listen, you know, we're not like you guys." "We're healthy." " Expect for?" " Shut up, okay?" "I don't know." "It's just not" "I don't know, man." "Not as attracted to her anymore." "I don't know." "Maybe it's not automatic anymore." " Oh, yeah." " Yeah." "I mean you know I used to just look at her and" "You know, her neck or I smell or something." "I just be trying to tear her cloths off." "But now-- Oh, man, she's" "Hey, man, I thought sex was great for you two." "I'm in advertising, remember?" "No, it's just" " It's calm." "It's too calm." "It scares me." "No kidding?" "Mmm, so what are we going to do?" "Walk out on her." "She'll start looking great." "Worked for me." "This is beautiful." "No one knows about it." "Bernard and I found it together." "Well, it beats the mall I guess." "Listen, I really, really appreciate this." " Things have been just so-- - [music approaches]" "That's Bernard and his friend." "Well, I'll go for a walk." "You guys stay here for a very little while." "Okay." "Hey, thanks." "[car door closes]" "I'm Danny, a friend of Bernard's." "Okay, I guess." "Nice of you to do this." "It means a lot to Bernard." "[rocks tumble down hill]" "Oh well, it's no big deal." "So how long you known Lauren?" "Oh, a few months." "Not long." "She's a good kid." "Listen, you want something to drink?" "No, no, I'm fine." "Okay." "What do you say we look for a shooting star, huh?" "They come out early when it gets hot like this at night." "Indian summer." "I, uh" "I've never seen you before." "Uh look, I'm" "I'm not-- You know it's starting to get dark." "It's okay, I" "I like older women." "I always have." "I'm old enough to be your" "I'm older than you think I am." "I'm gonna get Lauren." " I got to get back" " Sure." "To my life." "[engine struggles]" "Come on, come on, come on." "Oh, no." "All right." "[engine continues to struggle]" "Ugh, it's the starter, damn it." "Maybe Michael will take this thing back to the dealer now." "Can I offer you ladies a ride?" "I don't believe this." "Bernard got accepted to art school on a scholarship." "That's great." "That's great." "I'm going to Bryn Mawr Ave." "Guys?" "Guys the light."

"In Lansdale?" "Oh, it was almost great." "It was the backseat of a convertible again." "Out of control it was." "I wish you had been there." "I wish we could back there." "Where, Lansdale?"

"Well, he didn't want to leave me, so he staying at Danny's." "Oh." "Um, I'll just wait on the porch." "Oh, you don't have to do that." "You can wait in here."

"There's no right moment or right way with you lately, is there?" "No, when you're here with me and your head." "And not at that place or talking about Miles Drentell all the time." "Wait a minute." "Wait a minute." "You wanted me to take the job, Hope." "Sure I did." "It doesn't mean I wanted you to check out of our marriage." "Oh, come on." "It's scary." "You never used to be like this." "It's a new job, Hope." "I have to work harder." "This is not the kind of life I thought we would have." "Well, it's not that different, Hope." "Elliot and I used to work on the weekends." "Yeah, you used to shoot baskets in the driveway." "You used to sit around and talk." "You used to be here." "I'm trying to be with you, Hope." "No, you're trying to be in bed with me." "With me." "You practically got me begging now." "Is that what you want?" "I want you to pay some attention to me." "To us." "To something other than that stupid job of yours, but I know I'm not gonna get that." "What about your attention?" "What about sexual attention?" "Meaning what?" "Meaning why can't you make some effort to make something happen here?" "To help me through this." "To make me feel I want you." "Are you saying you don't want me anymore?" "No." "Just" "It's not automatic anymore." "I want you, Hope." "Of course I want you." "Well, couldn't-- Never mind." "[Bernard] Oh, Lauren." "Uh, how are you and Susannah?" "I think we're doing extraordinary well for a couple who decided to have a baby before we knew each other's birthdays." "It's okay, I'll do this myself." "I got it." "I got it." "So how about you guys?" "Any news from the reproductive front?" "Nah, nothing." "Probably just as well anyway." "I thought you were the one who wanted another kid." "Oh, yeah, well, I don't know." "Oh, wait a minute." "Whoa, whoa." "Something dropped." "Something dropped." "Well, you don't want another kid now?" "No, it's just, you know, little things." "Just little things." "You know, like love, marriage, sex." "Little things like that." "I mean, what do women want?" " Lord, what do they want?" " Yeah, right." " Here we go" " Oh, no, no." "What?" "You know I was thinking the other day how we spend our entire adolescence going crazy over women." "I mean, trying to meet woman, trying to find woman, trying to sleep with woman." "And then you find one, and you would make her the complete center of the universe." "So what will happen?" "She'd have contempt for you because you weren't cool." "Oh, stop." "It's too painful." "Come on, let's go." "Grab it, will you?" "I remember I made a fool of myself" "I mean a complete fool-- of myself over this girl from Easton." "Who?" "Lindy Koban." "She was before your time." "And I swore I would never let any woman subject me to that kind of humiliation again." " Susan Forrest." " Who?" "It's the one that did it to me." "Right, see?" "So, you know, we learn to keep everything under control." "Not to risk letting them see how much they really matter." "What was that line of yours, huh?" "That great line of yours." "What?" "Life is possibility, not predictability." "That got you laid a lot, as I recall." "Yeah." "So now Hope doesn't think I even" "When did the act become reality?" "You think we're still gonna have jobs after this little soiree?" " How do I look?" " Like you work for DAA." "They should probably call it DOA." "Just make yourselves comfortable here." "And I'm gonna check with my boys." "Hey." "Okay, boys, you ready?" "Yeah, listen, Miles, I think you should know we've tried working with your concept and it just isn't working." "Now, I'm willing to bust my ass for you, but I have to be able to believe in the campaign." "So we're gonna try it my way." "Mm-hmm." "John, try the dim sum, please." "Thank you, Miles." "Michael." "Michael, you surprise me." "I knew you were principled." "That's one of the quaint old-world things" "I halfway like about you." "But I didn't know you were into taking stupid risks." "Well, I don't think it's stupid this time, Miles." "You love these little scenes with me, don't you?" "Do it your way." "I suggest your way had better be good." "Of course, if you try a stunt like this again, you're out of here." "Gentlemen and ladies, the team of Steadman and Weston." " Hi, Pete, I'm Michael Steadman." " Hi." " Elliot Weston, hi, how are you?" " How are you." "Nice to meet you." "I can't let you continue to work if you're going to deceive us." "What you did was very irresponsible." "Do you even know about birth control, about AIDS?" "We used a condom." "Well, that's one good thing." "Lauren, listen, I don't know how to say this to you." "Your first boyfriend" "It's just the beginning." "He's not the person you're going to be with for the rest of your life." "I know that you don't want to hear this from me." "Well, it may seem like it's just the beginning to you, and it's not important, but" "I didn't say that." "Well, how much time do you actually get?" "I mean you get married and you have kids." "Look, no offense, I'm sure you're happy, but it just doesn't always seem that great to me." "Are you afraid you're going to lose him?" "Well, if I does lose him it's not gonna be because I didn't love him enough." "I know it seems incredible to you." "But I was 16 once, and I haven't completely forgotten what it's like." "I mean, the silly truth is that I'm a parent." "I just wish I could spare you some of things you're going to have to go through." "How did you know when you were in love with Michael?" "When you wanted to marry him?" "That's a question." "But I remember." "Oh, it was a very cold, foggy day." "And Michael and I had just came out of this awful movie." "And we were looking for the car, and we couldn't find it." "And it was starting to get dark, but we were laughing about it." "And we were getting tired, and I leaned against this car." "And I looked at him." "But I didn't see him, I heard him like a pressure and a sound inside in a place so deep" "I never thought anyone would reach." "And I knew I could listen to that sound for the rest of my life." "Should we talk?" "Do we know how?" "Are you having an affair?" "I don't have time to have an affair." "What's that supposed to mean?" "I don't want to have an affair, Hope." "I love you." "Well, if you love me, you'll be with me." "Well, sometimes I forget I can do that." "Why?"
