"Don't you thing that they are awfull small for all this smashing and tackling?" "I don't know." "When I was a kid, we just played in the street." "If you didn't come home with bloody elbows and knees.." "Then you just weren't trying." "That's not making me feel better." "OK." "Give yourself position!" "Pass it here." "Dang, girl..." "I wasn't quarterback for nothing." "Okay I've got to scoot." "Finn, you're going home with Ms. Moran, OK?" "And dad is going to prepare dinner tonight." " Where are you going?" " The Hump Bar." "Mommy has her reopeing, remember?" " Thanks." " See you later." "Hey kiddo, you want a couple of pointers?" "Yes, ma'am." "OK, laces up, arms out... then you drop it, OK?" "Don't throw it, drop it.." "So it's drop, kick, follow through." "Where is everyone?" " It's still early." " No." "I think maybe Roxy reopened a little too soon." "You know Roxy." "She only has one speed, full throttle." "I was hoping that Denise would stop by." "Something I should know about?" "Roland..." "time will sort it out." "OK." " Round two?" " Thank you, sugar." "How's everything?" "What?" "Is Someone here allergic to shrimp?" "Was I dreaming or this baby began his day in the freezer?" "You're not crazy." "My distributor stiffed me this morning so I had to go with frozen." "Excuse me." "The beer is good." "Check." "This year would be good.." "Yeah, opening night..." "and one of my waitress didn't show." "Let's see..." "One Draft, shrimp..." "Let's say $10." "The next time the first round is on me." "Thank you for the tip." "Sorry I'm late." "Lucas's coach talked to me after practice." " He asked me to be his assistant." " What?" "Don't be so surprised." "I played when I was a kid." " I never knew that." " Did you take the job?" "Are you kidding?" "Who's got the time?" "Besides, It's much more fun to boo from the bleachers." "Hooray, reinforcements." " Sorry I missed the crowd." " This is the crowd." "Oops." "Things will pick up, Rox." "It's hard to open on a weeknight." "Right." "Once the word of mouth gets around" "What word of mouth, that the food is lousy and the service is terrible?" " It's not you." " It's the economy." "Don't kid a kidder.." "This is a disaster." "Willow's Team ~ Translated by aMvEL ~" "Emmaline, it's time to go to school." "Tell me that's not the shirt I bought you." "Why would you ruin a perfectly good shirt?" "I didn't ruin it, I improved it." "Back upstairs and change." "What?" "Mom, this is the look." "The look?" "Homeless vagrant is the look?" "You're overreacting." "I thought you liked that shirt." "I do like it." "Why else would I wear it?" " Okay." "I'll be late..." " OK." "Stop." "You're not embarrased looking like that?" "No." "Get in the car." "Get in the car." "I am tired of fighting you over everything." "Roland, I've been thinking..." "Woman, we don't need to recover that couch.." " I had given that up." " Good." "It's about Sara Elizabeth." "It's going to sound strange coming from me, but..." "I'd like to have her christened." "Christened?" "In a Church?" "I said it was strange." "Yes." "You wouldn't consider this when you were pregnant." "I know." "And I'm not suddenly all religious either." "OK." "I'm curious..." "What changed your mind?" "I don't know exactly." "Before I deploy, I'd like to have this ceremony for our daughter." "You want me to call Pastor Robinson?" "No, I'll call him." "He'll be surprised, considering that you never come to service." "I know." "You should call Claudia Joy too." "Godparents have a big role in christenings." " Right." " Right." "Hey, what do you think about this, baby girl?" "I think she's on board." "Hut!" "Nice catch." "Good toss." "Ready?" "Darn it." "Somebody loose a football?" "Dad!" "Hey, guy!" "Have you ever heard of a cell-phone?" "It wouldn't be a surprise." "You okay?" "I thought you were coming back Friday?" "Things changed." "You complain?" " Where's Katy?" " At a playdate." " Which one's our house?" " The green one." " You want to come see my new room?" " You bet I do." "It's a big house." "How many times was your husband deployed during your marriage?" "OK..." "Kosovo, Iraq." "He's on his third tour." "In 20 years of marriage, would you say you were separated six years?" "8 years?" "Why does that matter?" "Ms. Sherwood you've admitted infidelity." "To protect your interests, I have to convince the judge that your actions were those of a single parent who was essentially abandoned by her husband." "But that's not true." "At times it was hard, but Frank was in the army." "Earlier, you described your husband as... short tempered, insensitive, rigid..." "Wait, I never used those words." "It's right here." "I may have said he could be that way..." "You said he didn't want you to work, when you aquired a motorcycle he tried to sell it without your consent he was unwilling to attend counselling sessions..." "But he went to them." "Quote; "He wanted me to stay exactly the way I was when we we got married." "He wouldn't let me change."" "End of quote." "Your wife admitted to the affair with Corporal McCadden." "Had there been others?" " No." " Are you sure?" "Yes." "Well..." "not that I know of." " There was this doctor she worked with..." " Name?" "I don't know if anything happened between them." "But you had your suspicions." "He was killed in a motorcycle accident." "But before he died, He was in the hospital... and I stopped in to see Denise." "She didn't know I was there." "The guy was unconscious." "Just hanging on." "And..." "She took his hand and she kissed it." " What are you typing?" " I'm going to want that name." "I just told you, I don't know if anything happened." "And we're going to check it out." "Even without evidence your testimony suggests a pattern of adulterous behavior." "I'm not here so you can sling mud at my wife." "Why are you here Major Sherwood?" "It's my job to show the judge that while you risked your life in Iraq" "Your wife was running around back home, betraying not only you, but everything you believe in." "Shall we proceed?" "Your blouse is beautiful." "Really?" "I don't know what to wear." "No, you look perfect." "I've only met Pastor Robinson once before." "Thank you for being here." "Please." "I am delighted to be with a little girl who doesn't understand sarcasm." "Yes, I'm talking about you, Sara Elizabeth." "Oh, here he is." "Hello, Joan." "Pastor Robinson So good to see you again." "This is Claudia Joy Holden our daughter's godmother." " It's a pleasure, pastor." " The Same." "And this must be Sara Elizabeth." "She's late for her nap, but I wanted you to see her." " I'll put her down now." " Thank you." "Roland would've liked to be here, but he's got a patient." "Give him my best and tell him I said Sara Elizabeth is a beauty." "I will." " Please, have a seat." " Thank you" " Can I get you anything?" " No, nothing." "As I said on the phone," "Normally parents and godparents take a baptism class but your Deployment makes this a special case, Joan." "Thank you for your understanding." "Of course, I am especially eager to hear about your relationship with our lord." "I see." "Well..." "I don't have one actually." "As a soldier, I have a deep reverence for tradition." "Baptism is more than tradition." "It's the cornerstone of our faith." "I thought this was about Sara Elizabeth." "Your daughter will emulate you and walking her own path, with Christ." "Joan..." "Have you been baptized?" "Wake up, girl." " Viola?" " I brought you something." "A little housewarming present." "Fresh as a baby's bottom and twice as firm." "My brother runs the best shrimp boat out of Charleston." "I'm so sorry." "I'm so tired the bags under my eyes have bags." "It takes a long hours to make a business run." "When I started selling my Gichi sauce," "I worked 70 or 80 hours per week." " You owned a business?" " I ran a few too." "Bars, restaurants..." "I came in early just to look over everything from last night." "It was so awful." "A blind man can see you need some help." "I can't afford to hire more help." "You can't afford not to." "Unless you want to hand over your keys to the tax man." "Maybe that's what I should've done in the first place." "Oh come on." "Now that's no way to be." "You've got any better ideas?" "Maybe I do." "Frank, come on in." " Sorry I'm late, sir." " 1 minute 30 seconds." "Damn lawyers, they just want to drag everything out." "That bad?" "Nasty business." "It's just so ugly." "Have a seat." " I don't want to overstep..." " Please." "Have you considered a mediator?" "How does it work?" "If you and Denise agree you hire one person to handle the whole thing." "Cheaper and faster than lawyers, and more civilized." "I know a Captain from division that used one." "I'd be happy to get a name for you." "Yeah, I would appreciate that." "Preliminary Evaluation for the MRA, as requested sir." "Let's have a look." " No." " Why not?" "I told you, I'm a one woman show." "I don't need a manager." "I've never had one." "You've got the wrong newspaper." "What?" "The mercury bleeds." "Didn't you see all that inky shrimp last night?" "You need the post and quarry." "I'll make a note of it." "All I'm asking is the chance to turn this place into the kick-ass joint that it used to be." "That's what I'm trying to do." "I know." "It's not your fault that you don't know what you're doing." "Viola, I like you, but you're beginning to bug me." "Why?" "Because I've got ideas worth hearing?" "Because I've already told you I don't need help." "Says you." "Why is this so important to you?" "I'm losing my home." "I gave my life savings to my son last year." "He was working New York and put it in some hedge fund." "It would be safer in a tin can in my garden." " Oh, my God." " Yeah." "Everything is gone." "Little girl, I could run this place in my sleep." "I need the work." "I felt like I was being interrogated." "What's your relationship with the Lord?" " What did you expect?" " I don't know." "Not that." "Pastor Robinson is in the God business, that's what he does." "I guess I wanted something more like our wedding." " Our wedding?" " Where we'd get to write our own vows..." "There wasn't so much..." "religion." "A christening is different." "Clearly." "The Pastor thought I was crazy asking for this when I haven't been baptized myself." "You know you could always change that." "No thank you." "I don't know what I was thinking?" "I'm sorry, baby." "You're going to give up that fast?" "It just didn't feel right." "So we'll find another church for the ceremony." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "Yeah." "Thank your father for dinner, and go brush your teeth" " Thank you, Daddy." " Thank you, Daddy." "Will you come hear the new song I downloaded?" " Roger that." " Then you'll go to sleep." "I want you to hear the song that I downloaded too." "First Lucas, then you." "Upstairs." "All hail our conquering hero." "Amazing what a little pepperoni and icecream can do." "Hey did you happen to see how far our bedroom is from the kids'?" "Roger that." "Where did the couch come from?" " You don't like it?" " Well..." "Before you say anything, keep in mind I bought it for next to nothing at the thrifty nickle." " You hate it." " I don't hate it..." "How come our recliner isn't in front of the TV anymore?" "Well, I moved the couch here, because the kids and I like to watch TV together, and in case you didn't notice we don't all fit on your recliner anymore." "I'm ready for you to hear the song, Daddy." "Hey I asked first." "Go." "We'll argue furniture later." "Hard to believe they were ever so small, isn't it?" "How can you put up with that?" "Put up with what?" "When I was with Joan today I fought the urge to tell her that no matter what, kids end up going their own direction." "Yeah." "Probaby best to share that on a need to know basis." "Emmaline, turn that down!" "Please!" " Pamela?" " Be right there." "I think we should switch the couch with my recliner." "Rearrange a few things in here." "How would you like to rearrange this?" "So what do you think?" "I spoke to this guy Cameron on the phone." "He seemed okay." "I didn't even know what a mediator was before you told me." "We both want this handled..." "I'm just trying to... find a way to save time and money." "OK." "I get it." "We do not have to do this, Denise." "You can stick with your lawyer." "I am not trying to railroad you." "I never said you were." "The only thing left to talk about, is the Ohio property." "I don't want it, Frank." "We bought it together Denise." "Keep it." "You and Jeremy can use it to go fishing some day." "Wasn't that the idea?" "Yes, that was the plan." "And we were going to watch over the grandkids together." "But I guess that's not in the cards now either..." "Look, we'll talk about this tomorrow when we meet this guy, OK?" "Right." "Good night, Denise." "Good night." "Good morning." "Hey, what're you doing?" "The earnings last night." "I hope it does not bother you." "No." "Bar reciepts weren't bad..." "but the food orders." "Yeah, tell me about it." "We've got to change it up." "Probably, yes." "It don't mind you coming in early, that's why I gave you a key, but let's slow things down, just a little." "All right, I'm an inch worm baby." "Taking things slow." "The first order of business has to be shaking up this menu." " What'd you have in mind?" " KISS" "Keep it simple, stupid." "You only need one or two shrimp dishes if they're lip smacking good." "You've got five." "So just cut out a couple of options, huh?" "That's all I'm saying." "Before I forget, my kids are at a school assembly this afternoon." "Could you watch things for me?" "Can birds fly?" "Thanks" "Mediation is different than working with lawyers." "Traditional Divorce proceedings are based on an adverserial relationship." "Here the goal is to cooperate, find a way to settle things." " Honestly, openly, fairly." " That is exactly what we want." "At least that's what I want." "Denise can speak for herself." "That's what I want too." "From what you've told me, this situation is pretty straight forward." "Your son is an adult and the only asset of material value is the Ohio property." " We can sell it." " He can have it." "I'd like to sell it and split the proceeds." "I told you I don't want it." "I'm not going to use it." "I'd rather just sell it and be done with it." "Perhaps you two would like time to discuss it?" "No thank you, I've made up my mind." "I don't want there to be any outstanding issues." "Could we please just move on?" "Okay." "With that out of the way, I only have a few basic questions for you." "Hey, sugar." "What's going on Viola?" "Ladies night?" "Free drinks?" " Just a few changes, that's all." " That's all?" "And what about that creepy stringbean hanging out in the kitchen?" " That's Chief." " The Chief?" "Right." " Who's the Chief?" " Your new cook." "I have a new cook?" "What happened to Julia?" "Table 3." "Talent like that deserves to be out in front." "What do you think you're doing?" "Hiring a new cook giving away my liquor?" "You agreed there had to be changes." "I didn't tell you to make them!" "I asked you to look after things, not turn them upside down." "Ladies nights always draws a paying crowd." "And we're lucky to have the Chief." "He's usually not available." "Why?" "Because he's living in a cave?" "Okya, Chief may not look like much but he's a magician with shellfish." "You should be thanking me." "For what?" "For taking over my bar?" " For helping." " This is not helping, this is sneaking behind my back." "I'm through." "You don't appreciate everything I'm doing for you, I'm out of here." "Good!" "Nice!" " Did you see that?" " I'm getting better, Dad." "Good." "Why did you move the chair?" "Why did you move the couch?" "If you're going to work with him, at least do it right." "You catch it with your hands and bring it in to your body." " That's for bigger boys." " Let me try." "Chase, his hands are too small." "Who played football?" "You or me?" " I know plenty about football" " Really?" "Yeah, really." "Enouch so that the coach asked me to be his assistant." "That must be one desperate coach." "Okay Lucas, here we go." " Ow, that burns!" " Let me see." "You just jammed him a little." "A little cold water and you'll be fine." "Nice going, Dad." "Someone is ready to spit nails." "Yeah, and they are all aimed at my husband's head." "What did he do?" "Nothing, except criticize everything he sees." "He doesn't like new sofa or dishes, he doesn't like the way I play catch with Lucas." "I'm sorry what's that smell, and can I have some please?" "One Gumbo!" "Don't ask." "I won't." "Chase is gone for weeks at a time I look after the kids," "I look after the house, and I move the damn house, and he comes in and thinks he can change everything." "He even hates where I put the toilet paper." " Well that's a whole heap of hate." " Yeah, tell me about it." "Thanks." "Mr, your change." "No, ma'm, you keep it." "It was worth it." " Really?" " Yes." "Best Gumbo I've had this side of Lafayette." "I'll catch you on the rebound." " Take care missy." " Nice." "I'm sorry, I was so pissed when I came in" "I didn't even notice all the changes you've made, Fantastic." " Yeah?" " Yeah." "This Gumbo..." "Oh, my God!" "That good, huh?" "When did you have time to do all this?" "You don't believe in knocking?" "What?" "In a garden?" " May I come in, please?" " Suit yourself." "OK, look..." "Maybe I overreacted." "Maybe?" "Oh come on, I leave you in charge for one day and you do a complete 180 on the place." " It needed it." " No, it didn't!" "OK, maybe it did." "That's not the point." "You should've asked me." "Thanks for stopping by." "You do not make this easy, do you?" "I admit I freaked out, but I'm not used to someone else knowing more about my place than I do." "About menus, ..." "You don't know your ass from your elbow when it comes to cooking seafood." "Ass, Elbow." "OK, I know I can be as stubborn as a mule sometimes but so can you." "This sure is a bad apology." "Look, the last person I was in a business with tried to steal the place from me, so you can understand if" "I'm a little gunshy about taking on a manager." "Nevertheless..." "I'd like you back." "I need you back." "I only know one way to be." "But I suppose it takes som getting used to." "But one thing you can take to the bank... is that you can trust me." "I'm believe I can." "We met with a mediator." "It was very nice, very congenial." "You can draw up papers right away." "Is that what you want?" "It's what Frank want." " Are you sure?" " Yes, I'm sure." "He could barely look at me." "It's over." "It's nothing left for me here." "What about your friends?" "What friends?" "I've never felt also one in my life." "Except you, of course." "Denise, I know that Claudia Joy..." "Roland, it's fine, I get it." "I'd probably act the same way." "No, you wouldn't" "You'd be there for them... the same way you were there for me." "I'll never forget that." "Thank you." "So... what's next?" "I had a lot of time to think about that." "I signed up for a travel nursing agency." "Travel nursing?" "I'm qualified" "I don't have a home anymore..." "It seems like a good way to see the country." "Right..." "You don't think that it'll get lonely?" "It cann't be worse than it is now." "There is an opening in Denver... next month." "In Denver?" "She says there's nothing keeping her here." "No home, no job, no friends." "This is not fair, Roland." " What?" " We're still her friends." " Are you?" " Hey, come on." "What did she expect us to do?" "I don't know." "Listen, be there?" "That's what she did for me." "What are you talking about?" "I had an affair." "What?" "Denise found out." "She was disappointed but she stood by me." "When?" "It happened when Joan went away to get treatment." "It was just one night..." "The details aren't important." "What matters... is that Denise never stopped being my friend." "She never abandoned me." "And if I were a better friend, I would have told you this before... but I was ashamed." "Denise made a mistake." "Nobody knows that better than she does." "Nobody regrets it more." "Maybe you were all planning to reconnect with her on your own time, but time is running out." "If you can't put aside your differences now you may never have another chance." "So that's it?" "You sure work fast." "You made it simple." "Any questions before we proceed?" "Photographs, what happens to them?" "Take what you want." "What about pictures you want?" "I trust you to divide them up." "So what if I just copy them?" "Fine." "That'd be fine." "Anything else?" "No." "Well, if that's all then all that's left is for each of you... to sign where indicated." "I'll file these papers with the court and sometime in the next 30 to 60 days you'll be officially divorced." "Notification will come by mail." "It something comes up in the interim, we'll be in touch." "I'm glad you found us." "But I have to start by saying we don't perform baptisms here." "We call our service "An Infant Dedication"." "And what's that?" "Is similar to a baptism, in that everyone that loves your child will be welcome here." "But primarily we focus on the community, over theology." "I like the sound of that." "Another distinction is that we don't use a single fixed text." "We're flexible, in accordance to the desires of parents." "So we can be involved." "Maybe even help write service?" "Oh certainly." "Our service is centered around asking the congregation to pledge it's support." "To love and guide the child, to nurture her throughout heer upbringing." "Joan?" "Reverend Benkerd, this sounds exactly like what I've been looking for" "Good." "Why don't you tell me more about that?" "It's been hard to explain why this is so important to me why it matters so much." "My husband is a churchgoer." "I don't consider myself a religious person." "I find that issues of faith are... highly personal... and often difficult to articulate, but no less genuine because of that." "Thank you." "I'll be deployed to Iraq soon." "I think that's what's behind this." "I'm a soldier, and there is always the risk that I'll..." "That I..." "I guess I want to know that she's being watched over by that community that you talked about." "I want her to know that she's a part of something..." "A part of something that's..." "Something larger than ourselves." "Maybe something larger than all of us." "I want to know..." "I want her to know that... that..." "That she is loved." " Lucas." " I told you I'm coming." "And don't forget your mouthguard this time." "All right, good, good, good." "Don't cut it short." "High knees, guys." "There you go." "And turn around clean, and get to the end and back straight out of it." "There you go, keep the knees up." " Hey Coach." " Hey." " There you go." " Are you still looking for an assistant?" "Yeah, you bet." "Come on, keep running." "Send me in." "What made you change your mind?" "My husband." "I'll have to thank him some day." "Yeah, I'm sure he'll appreciate that." "Alright, Coach." "Let's go warm them up." "I kept thinking Frank wasn't going to sign." "I was looking at him, and... it was like being in a dream." "I was going to wake up, and find out that Frank had torn up the papers and that everything was all right again." "My marriage is over." "Denise?" "What's going on?" " I invited them all." " Why?" "We wanted to see you, Denise." "Roland told us about the mediator." "And the job in Colorado." "We don't want you to go to Denver." "We don't want you to go anywhere, period." "I thought they should know." "The last few weeks have been hard on all of us." "Maybe we could have done things differently." "I know I could have." "I'm sorry." "We're all sorry..." "for everything." " It's okay." " No, it's not okay." "It's not." "The five of us came together in a time of crisis, remember?" "Who could forget, I was giving birth to twins on a pool table." "And we did ourselves proud that day." "Not this time." "We love you, Denise, we didn't do a very good job showing it." "Yeah, we're pretty much idiots." "No, I'm the one who owes the apology." "I'm going to miss you guys so much..." "What am I going to do without you?"
