"Barbara and i, we're never gonna forget that." "Well, you forgot it okay for about 20 years." "At least barb pitched in." "I know i made my share of mistakes." "But, ma can't stay in the hospital forever." "Let me tell you something about this stroke of hers, and i got this from a doctor." "It's called a conversion reaction." "It's a big fuckin' opera brought on by repressed rage." "It's bullshit." "There was no infarc- whatever- the- fuck." "But they also said the symptoms are the same as a stroke, so the results is the same, she cannot take care of herself." "She's on the lam in that fuckin' hospital, from me." "Well, who did what to who, it's not my business." "All i know is mom is bewildered by all of this." "I mention you, her eyes fill up with tears." "Oh, boy." "I'm not asking you to step in, tony." "It's my turn now, that's why i came." "She's a streg', she's the devil." "She was." "Now, she's just a confused, frightened, old woman." "So, look, all i need is a couple hundred bucks." "To fix her car so i can get back and forth to the hospital." "Then i'll take her home to seattle." "Maybe, stay at her house here temporarily." "Oh, i doubt that." "I just put her house on the market." "Oh." "Look i'm glad you're here, okay?" "You wanna play florence nightingale, that's your choice." "Only this is the last time we mention her in this house."

"I've been telling you, spend more time down at the brokerage." "You're the fuckin' sce compliance officer for christ's sake." "You gotta exercise impulse control." "Okay, tony." "I'm sorry." "Okay, alright." "I can't show it in this condition." "What the hell is this?" "There's a high school up the street." "A sink was left on upstairs." "You don't even wanna see the toilets." "Excuse me." "Wait until i catch the kids who did this." "Break a few windows, they think they're johnny bad- ass the fuckin' jackals." "Will you stop, please?"

"What the fuck you talkin' about?" "Two years with eddie stakes." "Besides waxing eddie's car." "When he did the jolt in county-- then you know when you're bleedin' a guy, you don't squeeze him dry right away." "Contrarily, you let him do his bidding, suavely." "So, you can bleed him next week and the week after, at a minimum." "You mean, we don't need one of these guys getting pissed and running to the sce." "I mean, is that what you're saying?" "Break it down." "Sorry, chris." "Webistics is at 80, when are we dumping the stock?" "You'll know that when you need to know that." "Excellent." "This is cold, by the way."

"Ma, i'm going downstairs." "You spend the whole day on that elevator." "Grandma, you've gotta eat." "Let me die." "Don't say that." "I saw a light, there were voices calling out to me." "Grandma, what went on between you and dad?" "Mom won't tell me anything." "What, why, what did he say?" "Nothing, he won't mention you at all." "Oh, that one." "He blames me for everything." "I know, me too." "At night, they hit us." "Why can't this family just get along?" "Some peopl e don't wanna." "But you, you listen to him." "You do what he says." "He's your father." "I won't let them leave you here like this." "They can't stop me from seeing you." "Meadow, meadow, take that." "In the drawer." "In the drawer, take it." "Oh, my god." "This was your grandmother's, wasn't it?" "It's so you won't forget me." "Come on, motherfuck!" "Motherfuck...!" "...fuck... i told my family i got broadsided, but, i passed out behind the wheel." "See, my mother and me, we had a fallin' out." "And, since then, things have been good." "Clean break." "What kind of falling out?" "One of those unfortunate situations." "A lot of screaming." "Profanity." "Anyway, things were good." "And then my sister came back." "It's good to see her, i guess." "Cues from childhood kick in, older sister." "That should be obvious enough." "Yeah, but those feelings are starting to bleed into my business." "What sort of business are you in?" "Commercial waste." "Mr. Spears, i watch the news, like everyone else." "I know who you are, and i saw "analyze this"." "I don't need the ramifications that could arise from treating someone like yourself." ""Analyze this"?" "Come on, it's a fuckin' comedy."

"A lot of changes since you've been here." "With that "mommy dearest" around never again, i swore it." "Which is exactly what she wanted." "You played right into her hands with that." "Remember what she said to you at your wedding?" "She said it was a mistake, tony would get bored with you." "Hey, take it easy!" "I love seeing them like that, over a fire." "They're better over a spit." "Who's anthony look like to you, right now?" "Dad." "We stopped in to see ma on the way over." "How do you think she is?" "Mom, a little weak, but, she's all there." "Some family reunion." "The woman who bore them all is barred from the premises." "I don't think you should get too close, janice, look what she tried to do to tony." "I have no fantasies about my mother." "You know, he's trying to sell the house?" "What house?" "Ma's house." "See, that's what i'm talking about." "Don't get involved , let tony handle it."

"What the fuck?" "I'm sure there's an explanation." "There is, there is." "Take ma back to seattle." "She came here for the house, and a $400 car." "That was the con from the first." "That's the level she works at." "Maybe the sign was broken." "Maybe it fell down." "I'm still a little fat kid to her." "What does she think?" "She's gonna stop the house sale by picking up one fuckin' sign?" "If she were here i'd be bouncing her head against the wall!" "Look at yourself, tony." "Look at how angry you are!" "What do you care about that house?" "It's not gonna stop with the house." "The $300 pillow which we're gonna pay for." "The video equipment, which you already heard her talkin' about."

"We'll do anything." "Wet work, pick up his shirts." "Does tony ever talk about us?" "No." "You gonna drink or just sit there?" "Sit." "What the fuck is the matter with you?" "What's the matter?" "You leave my gas burner on?" "I almost lit a cigarette, i could have died." "I apologized." "Why you can't use a lighter to cook your shit like normal people is beyond me."
