"Previously on side order of life... tell him how you really feel." "How am I supposed to tell a total stranger " "I don't even know his name,I've never seen him,all we do is talk the phone -- that I love him?" "I don't know where she works,where she lives." "The flight from beijing took forever." " It's him." " Who?" "Cellphone man." "I grabbed his credit-card slip." "He left his copy." "We have a name!" "I got an offer from klein,denton,and kelso in seattle." " Will you marry me?" " Yes." "What about jenny?" "Let me remind you that you just got out of a major relationship." "The only rebounding you should be doing is on this court." "Are you,um... him?" " You're the girl..." " on the phone." "So,I'm jenny." "You know,it's so weird." "We've had so many phone conversations,but we've never had the normal ones." "Like where are you from?" "What do you do?" "****I run a global strategies company that specializes in spotting trends." "Finding burgeoning markets " " I go and study the cultures and find out what will translate to here." "So,that's why we talk so infrequently." "You're a -- you're a man on the move." "Well,it's hard to stay connected,especially when my whole life's in that cellphone." " When I lost it in beijing - - you lost me." "You found me." "Here we are." "It's crazy." "Dial the wrong number,and it could change your whole life." "It's like fate." "And yet I I feel like I have already experienced this -- being with you -- even though I haven'T." "It'S...weird." "Not if you believe in déj?" "vu." "You know,the hindus say it's like the universe telling you you're exactly where you're supposed to be in your life." "So,dessert." "What would the lady like?" "Holding hands in the restaurant over candlelight?" "Kissing you on the neck and caressing you tenderly in the parking lot?" "Or my favorite -- a decadent night of passion at your apartment served with whipped creamand raspberry coulis." "Or perhaps a sampler of all three?" "W-we'll take the sampler." "Or we could... skip desert." "We could... or we could go slow,savor the moment." "Slow is...good." "Becca." " Hi!" " Hey." "What's all this?" "When did you get here?" "I know you've been working really hard on the forester deal, and my wedding research has reached critical mass, so I thought I would bring the mountain to mohammed." "Well,you didn't have to do all this." "Although I am starving." "I had to skip lunch." "Perfect." "So,what do we got?" "Okay." "For dinner,I'm thinking beef tenderloin with a horseradish cream." "I found this adorable little gourmet place on third street." "Jones on third." "I love that place." " We - - we what?" "Um...nothing." "Jenny and i were gonna use this place." "Okay." "Takes care of that." "Why?" "I love their food." "Moving on." "Invitations." "Italian paper with an antique font and a hand-set printing press." "Papel." "Yes,wonderful place." "I had my -- my business cards printed here." "You sure?" "Sure it was just your business cards?" "Yeah." "Yeah." "Just my business cards." "Well,I bet jenny didn't think of this." " Red velvet cake from -- cookie casa." " Cookie casa." "I love your choices." "I'm sure you do." "You already picked them out with jenny." "We're having the same wedding." "I shouldn't have said anything." "It was totally insensitive of me." "No." "Do you know what?" "It was honest." "This is what we're facing." "I mean,it makes sense,you know?" "Jenny and I -- we have a lot in common." "We're both best friends with vivy." "We both love you." "So,back to the drawing board." "Are you gonna be okay?" "Jenny didn't have an amsale wedding dress,did she?" "No." "Thank god." "Thank god." "Could I have a little more of that cake?" "Nope." "Okay." "Yep." "We're taking it slow." "Slow,slow,slow." "Then why are you so wired?" "You come over here at midnight to celebrate the fact that you are not having sex?" "Exactly." "This relationship is gonna be different." "More mature -- you know?" "You okay?" "Yeah." "No,I'm fine." "Just tired." "Everything go okay with you and eduardo?" "Oh,he is gorgeous,and we make beautiful music." "But after all that ice cream,you have to cleanse the palate." "And we're both type a'S." "You're more like an a-minus." "Maybe b-plus." "What can I say?" "I would like my space." "But that is not the only reason I'm tired." "I went shopping today,and although it wore me out,it was worth it because I bought these." "Wa-pow!" "That is extreme retail therapy." "*********" "Oh,okay." "Is that like my own advice on replay?" "Great." "I feel like wonder woman." "Haaa cha-ching!" "You're my wonder woman." "Okay,now go home because I have a big meeting tomorrow." "I thought we were -- shh!" "Big meeting." "Okay." "Knock 'em dead,wonder woman." "Rick:" "Okay,newsstand sales are down,corporate is bugging, marketing just gave me this massive research packet -- and their fix..." "More aliens?" "Celebrity touch runs this weekly column written by alien boy." "These geniuses think this is why they're kicking our ass." "Oh,god." "The readers want more alien-interest stories." "You can't make this stuff up." "So we have to?" "To compete with alien boy?" "We'll do a more realistic,more science-based version of it." "It's a woman divorcing her high school-sweetheart husband because she thinks he's an alien." "And this is science-based how?" "It's called capgras syndrome." "It's a mental disorder that's caused by a tumor,schizophrenia,or head trauma." "The doctors can't figure out a reason for the problem." "All right." "So,what?" "Is she in a mental institution?" "Okay,this is the interesting part." "She was just named teacher of the year in simi valley." "She runs an annual fund-raiser for the school,weekly book club." "Her delusion is solely isolated to her husband." "Well,that's a creative way to get out of a marriage." "********" "So,what's the current status?" "They both agreed to go into mediation to rule on her mental competency." "If she's competent,the divorce will proceed." "It's in a day and a half." "You know the drill." "Interview the parties,take the pictures,you need it yesterday." "Got it." "Cellphone man?" " He doth exist?" " Yeah." "Yeah" "W-w-we went out last night." "Oh,it must have gone pretty well to be orchid worthy." "When do I get to meet this guy?" "You don'T." "No family and friends for awhile." "We're taking it slow." "Fine,fine." "So long as you're happy." " Have you done a background check?" " Rick!" "What?" "He is a really nice guy." "Since when do you date perfect strangers?" "I mean,what do you know about this guy specifically?" "Where's he from?" "What college did he go to?" "It's my understanding that until recently,you didn't even know his name." "Are you done?" "Yeah." "Okay." "I'll tell you what I know." " He is smart,funny,soulful - - come on,please." "Down-to-earth,spiritual." "How spiritual could he be?" "He drives a porsche." "Okay." "Just go.Go." "She was just standing there,you know,just doing the dishes." "It was a week after our 10th anniversary." "I remember because we finally had to throw out the roses I'd given her." "Anyway,I went up behind her,kissed her on the neck, and she turned to kiss me back and her face goes ghost-white." "And she says,who are you?" "Where's my husband?" "Where's ben?" "What'd you do?" "At first,I thought she was joking." "But then she ran into our bedroom and locked herself in and called 911." "So,did you try to talk to her?" "She stayed on the phone with 911 until the cops arrived." "Then she opened the door very calm,but when she saw me,she panicked." "I had to walk away just so they could calm her down." "They asked me lots of questions about us." "And so finally,I got them to take her to a doctor,but they wouldn't let me come along." "She didn't want me to." "So,they took her to a hospital?" "And after multiple tests and lots of specialists, they said that she has this disease that makes her believe in her mind that I'm an imposter." "Someone who looks like me,but isn'T." "Like I'm a frickin'body-snatcher alien,or something." "Where is she now?" "She's at home staying with my brother." "So,let me get this straight." "Visually,she sees you." "Emotionally,mentally -- she sees a stranger?" "Okay,look." "The doctors said that she has this,uh,condition." "But they also said that they can't find out what caused it." "She wasn't schizophrenic or epileptic." "She doesn't have any brain injuries." "I mean,she teaches every day and she does her volunteer work and she's fine with everyone else." "She's normal except with me." "So,you think this has something to do with you." "It's awful." "I feel like I'm losing her." "I can'T." "I can't lose her." "You ready for me,ladies?" "Oh,yeah." "All right." "Let's go,girls." "Yeah,yeah,yeah." "Okay,you have what's called peripheral neuropathy." "It's a common side effect of chemo." "Basically,the drugs that kill the cancer cells also kill nerve endings in your feet." "Okay,wait." "If the nerves have been killed,why do I feel them?" "I mean,it's like needles in my feet." "Because your nerves are all firing at once, and your brain is getting so many mixed signals it can't process it." "That's why you fell." "Well,have you had it?" "No." "I've had different,but equally delightful,side effects." "Hey,we can get you a handicap license -- parking kicks ass," " especially at the mall." " No,no,no." "Time out." "I don't want people looking at me differently." "Vivy,people always look at you differently if you appear sick or disabled." "It's called there,by the grace of god,goes I expression." "They can't help it." "Scares them." "But they're not scared of you." "They're scared of what you make them feel about themselves." "Well,that's just a little too much responsibility." "What happened to the whole cancer's just a pimple on your ass thing?" "New week." "New challenges." "That's great." "Vivy?" "What?" "What is it?" "Jenny came over to my house yesterday to tell me about her new boyfriend and being in her moment." "And all I could think about was how much I hate being in my moment, and at the same time,how scared I am of losing it." "Okay." "*******" "I'm happy for her." "I really am." "It just... just feels lonely sometimes." "You need to find somebody who's in the same boat as you -- someone who gets it." "I mean,your friends,as wonderful as they are,they are in a different boat." "You know,there's a support group that means downstairs every day at 2:00." "I want you to try it." "Hey,in the meantime,I'm gonna write you a prescription for shoes." "I can assume you're not sending me to nordstrom'S." "Sara:" "I knew right away that something wasn't right." "He looked like ben -- same sweet face -- but it wasn't him." "It was terrifying." "What about there in that photo?" "Is that ben or his double?" "Oh,that's ben." "We got married senior year." "We always wanted the same things." "Like this house." "We even fixed it up ourselves." "He was working on the nursery " "I miss him so much." "But you still want a divorce?" "Yes." "From the stranger." "I can't have an alien living in my house." "It's a mind-body separation." "Firms may think they're being honest, but when one part of the company doesn't know what the other is doing, it's a recipe for disaster." "So,I've set up a system at this firm that" "I'm proud to say has been embraced by other financial institutions around the country." "And the system is?" "I call it unilateral communication -- so that within a company,no matter how big or small, the right hand always knows what the left hand is doing." "So,basically,it's the return of good,old-fashioned talk." "Yeah." "It's all about face time." "Cut!" "Thanks,mike." "I'm right behind you." "You were great,ian." "I find it hard to believe that you've never been on camera before." "Oh,thanks." "You,uh -- you made me feel really comfortable." "I-I never miss your show." "It was like talking to an old friend." "I'm gonna be here for two more days." "Maybe we can grab coffee and you can fill me in on the major players here?" "Let me give you my number." "Uh,sure." "Let me just clear it with P.R." "Get it." "You don't want to be seen sleeping with the enemy." "Hey." "I got your e-mail and came right over." "Oh,no." "I was just wanting to update you." "My feet are fine." "It's no big deal." "Okay,hold on." "You're wearing black beauty on your second date?" "What happened to slow?" "*****Nobody said I can't look hot while I take it slow." "That's slightly scorching." "What's this?" "Oh,I was just doing some research on cancer support groups." "Thought it might be good for me to meet some people in the same boat." "Okay." "That's a good idea." "Here's the deal." "I'm giving you a cancer vacation." "Hey,I-I don't need a vacation from you, and I don't need to go on this date tonight if you need me." "This is where I want to be." "I know." "But for now " " I know this is hard to hear " "I need to meet people who are in the exact same boat." "Okay." "I get it." "No,it'll be great." "'Cause it's like we're going on these fancy cruises, and when we get back,we'll share our pictures and tell each other about how we picked up hot guys in the casino and at shuffleboard." "So go." "Okay?" "And here is a little bon voyage gift." "No." "These are your wonder woman shoes." "Don't worry." "I still have my superhero powers." "Mm-kay." "But you call me if you meet any hot guys in the casino." "And you call me if you meet any hot guys at shuffleboard." "Oh,it's a shoo-in." "I'm sorry for being so uninventive, but this place is so close to my office." "No,I love this place." "It's where I found you." "Thank you." "Jenny!" "Imagine seeing you here." "Imagine!" "Uh,uh,rick -- rick purdy,my boss." "Brian fowler." "How do you do?" " Nice to meet you." " What are you doing here?" "Uh,just meeting a friend for drinks." "Giselle,amber,whatever." "Uh,tatiana." "Brian,tell me a little bit about yourself." "Jenny and I go way back,and as a friend and her employer, quite frankly,I think I have the right to know something about a perfect stranger that she met on the street." "We're not total strangers." "I think tatiana's calling." "No,jenny,it's fine." "It's okay." "I like the fact that your friends care about you so much." "It's nice." "Speaks volumes about you." "Okay." "I'll have her back by 10:00." "How's that sound?" "10:00?" "Okay,11:00." "Deal." "Yeah,welcome to my world." "So,uh,you know,the other night you said we really never had the who/why/where conversation -- that we kind of just fast-forwarded to this." "I wasn't complaining." "I love this." "It's just I thought before we got any further,I thought I might fill in some of the blanks." "Jenny,uh..." "I'm not the man you think I am." "What?" "Is this the part where you tell me about the three other families you have in colorado?" "My company is also my wife's company." "Y-your wife?" "As in,like,currently married?" "Um,I'm in the middle of a protracted divorce, and it's all because of the business that we created together." "It's getting pretty ugly." "So,it's about,um,the custody of the business?" "Yes." "We were both unwilling to give it up,so ultimately,we decided to share it." "H-how exactly are you -- are you planning on sharing it?" "We're gonna be working together as two divorced people." "I-it's very,um...modern." "Oh,oh,sorry." "Is this the only,uh,custody battle you're dealing with?" "No." "I have a boy and a girl." "My son,cal,is 8." "Kristin's 6." "Two kids." "I know it's a bit of a shock." "A-a bit." "Yeah." "Hey,hey." "Come on,guys." "********" "The kids will probably hate you their whole lives for loving me." "Their mom's gonna make your life a living hell by filling their heads with horrible lies about you." "Your whole experience will be filled with feelings of inadequacy and insecurity about your entire existence." "But,hey,it's gonna be great." "Uh,s-so,this is -- is why you wanted it to go slow." " No." "*******" "My current life can be very overwhelming to somebody new." "Nice to see you again." "Specials?" "Our entrées include a chopped salad of confusion and doubt, a spicy stew of anger and disappointment,followed by a hasty exit,or the healthy choice -- a broth of distance and clarity." "For the lady?" "I think I need more time." "I'll come back." "She was talking to me." " Hi." " Hi." "You saw sara yesterday?" "I did." "She says she misses you." "She said that?" "Yeah." "Hi,sara." "Are you all right,ms.Rose?" "I will be,your honor." "Let's begin." "Thank you for your testimony,dr.Simm." "We'll take a short recess." "Ben?" "If I lose,sara divorces me,and she's out of my life forever." "If she's found incompetent,I move back in,and she lives in mortal fear of me." "It's an impossible situation." "Hey." "What are you doing here?" "My sources tell me your footsies are sore,so I took a sick day." "You're not sick." "Sick of work." "These expire soon,so we got to use them or lose them." "Oh,nice." "Burke williams spa." "They will wrap your feet in 400-thread egyptian cotton." "You will not feel a thing." "Oh,but you know what?" "I can'T." "I have an appointment to buy some fabulous shoes." "You don't want to come." "Trust me." "So,we'll shop,we'll spa." "A little girls' day out." "What do you say?" "Why are you here?" "In all honesty,look,I need a personal day with,like,a real person." "You are the closest thing I know to one." "Well,what the hell." "I need a ride." "My whole life has become one big,old long personal day." "Okay,what first?" "Neiman's or barneys?" "I'll tell you in the car." "Okay,not exactly what I had in mind." "Yeah,that makes two of us." "I haven't seen these since sister mary rose angela in high school." "Oh,you'd make a terrible nun." "I just feel ancient,like the people I saw in that support group." "Ooh,my size right here." "You went to a group?" "Good for you." "Oh,I bailed before going in." "It just felt so somber and depressing." "Well,you were afraid." "I probably would be,too." "Are you gonna go for the baby poop or the rotten tomato color?" "No,I can't do it." "I'm to young to be my grandmother." "Okay,suit yourself,but I think I'm gonna get me a pair of these right here." "Why?" "They're hideous!" "Hideous?" "Come on,they're slamming." "Hey,we can set a whole new trend with these right here." "It's all about comfort,okay?" "So -- oh,my -- so comfy." "No." "You don't have to do this." "Whoa." "You got to be kidding me." "Happy hour." "A different kind of cancer support group." "This is more your speed." "Where?" "On magnolia somewhere." "Tomorrow at 6:00." "The place will be crawling with hot,bald chicks." "And?" "Just a personal fantasy." "Oh,my god." " Sinéad o'connor,demi moore in G.I.Jane, natalie portman in v for vendetta." "Come on." "Let me go." "All right?" "I'll let you do your thing,and you can let me live out a personal fantasy." "Wait." "You're wearing those out?" "Hell yeah." "I love these." "Suffice it to say, there is no precedent for this case in california law." "Clearly,ms.Rose is not competent if she believes her husband is an alien." "However,the evidence of her competence as a teacher argues that her life would return to normal if a divorce were granted." "Ms.Rose,do you still want to file for divorce?" "Yes,I do,your honor." "And,mr.Rose,do you still refuse her request?" "No." "I withdraw my petition." "Are you sure?" "Yes,I'm sure." "Counsel will meet and agree on the terms for the dissolution of marriage." "Ladies." "Hey,you never told me how that interview went with maria woodson." "It went pretty good." "She's damn smart." "And what did becca think?" "I haven't told her yet." "She's too busy planning the wedding." "Wedding?" "Whose wedding?" "Oh,I didn't tell you yet?" "We,uh -- we got engaged last week." "Well,at the risk of sounding all girly,man," "I kind of thought we were a little closer than that." "Yeah,I didn't feel like hearing an earful from you." "Because people don't want to listen when they know that they're dead wrong." "Okay." "Fire away." "This is all about your wounded pride with jenny,all right?" "You are a compulsive deal closer." "I am not." "Self-examination,man -- why are you so afraid of it?" "Why don't you just relax,take your time,explore your options?" "You know what you really are?" "You're a serial monogamist." "And what's so wrong with that?" "I appreciate your concern,but -- buddy,you are sowing the seeds for a midlife crisis 20 years too soon,all right?" "Look at jenny's dad." "He gave away the best years of his life for a marriage of convenience." "You have a lot of arguments against falling in love,rick." "What are you so afraid of?" "Touch?" "I think we just had our first fight." "Yeah." "Come on." "Hug it out." " See you later." " All right." "Hey,you." "I got your message." "So,husband let her go after all that,huh?" "Yep." "He thinks it's his fault." "Won't accept it's a disease,a disorder." "If there was some way to prove to him that it's real,maybe." "What does that matter?" "Her wires are still crossed." "Yeah,but if he believed it was a disorder, he wouldn't blame himself and he would fight for her." "We're not looking for a fairy-tale ending here,just a good alien story,okay?" "What are you doing here anyway,sporty spice?" "I just came from the gym,tying up some loose ends." "What's your excuse?" "Same as you." "But we're talking about you." "So,what happened to brian?" "Trouble with the connection now that you're not on the phone anymore?" "Yeah,it's a miracle we had any connection at all after you showed up." "Thanks again,by the way,for that little stunt you pulled." "Fraternal instinct." "He seemed pretty cool." "Why do I get the impression that you're not having that much fun?" "I am." "Look,he told me that he's in the process of getting a divorce." "It's -- it's messy." "So?" "Weren't you engaged when you started talking to him?" "Yes,I was,but it's more complicated than that." "He's gonna be working side by side with his soon-to-be ex." "He's got kids." "That's a lot of baggage,but let me just say this." "If he was a bad guy,he would've just told you what you wanted to hear,knocked the old boots,and left." "Is that the voice of experience talking?" "'Cause it can be quiet now." "Look,you put this guy on such a pedestal." "You built him up so high,he could've never possibly lived up to it,okay?" "That's not his fault." "It's yours." "I'm just saying." "He looks and sounds like the same guy, but now he feels like somebody different." "Let me leave you with another concept." "Half the men in this country are divorced,which means that you either get a guy like brian -- who's made some mistakes,but wants to be a better man -- or you get a guy like me." "You do the math." "Are you okay?" "Yeah." "The judge said the divorce would be fast,uncontested." "It's funny." "I don't feel any better." "Not relieved." "Just this longing." "Sara,ben feels,um... responsible in some way for your situation." "No." "Ben and I were so happy." "We were gonna start a family." "He would have been a great father." "He kept this picture here." "Said our daughter was going to look just like that." "Who is this?" "It's me." "I don't know where it was taken." "I can't remember." "When my mom died last year,I found it in her attic." "Has your mother ever mentioned any accidents -- any head injuries you might have sustained?" "Never." "She used to say that I was accident-proof." "And as the subprime mortgage market continues to falter, fed chairman ben bernanke pledges his continued commitment to protecting the positive growth of the U.S.Economy." "Oh,what the hell." "It's just one drink,right?" "Thanks,guys." "Woodson." "It's ian denison." "I saw that you'd called." "Oh,mr.Face time." "I was hoping you'd call." "Uh,so,you free for that cup of coffee?" "Okay." "Wonderful." "Thank you." "The,uh,files are so old they have to fax them to me." "They don't have them computerized." "So,what does this old picture have to do with my favorite martians?" "Sara has no memory of this,so she gave me her maiden name and I looked up the bus." "Our lady of mercy elementary school." "Webster groves,missouri,1979 -- a bus accident." "Kindergarten class on their way to the zoo." "One child survivived." "You think it's her?" "The parents asked the police not to reveal the name,so they kept it a secret." "Now,30 years later,they've agreed to release it to me." "Head trauma." "This is why her wires are crossed." "Are you sure you're not an alien?" "Your instincts are scary good." "Vivy:" "I don't have a very good feeling about this." "Aw,come on." "We're gonna have fun." "Hey!" "Welcome." "Hi." "We're looking for the group.Is it over?" "Oh,no." "No.This is the group." "I'm the founder,matt." "Welcome to the club that no one wants to belong to." "All these people have cancer?" "Oh,not all of them." "People bring their friends and family." "We're not your everyday cancer support group because people our age like to be with people our age." "Oh,yeah." "Looks like a fun group." "Over there,that's christine." "She's 30." "She had cervical cancer,and she and her husband just adopted twins from china." "Twins?" "And those two guys over there,mike and john -- they both had testicular cancer." "They're the best of friends,and we call them the nut jobs because they try to sleep with everyone in the group." "And you're the new girl,so watch out." "Oh,that's great." "I'm the new girl." "So,um,how does this work?" "Every couple of weeks,we get together,shoot some pool,have some drinks." "And in a little while,I'll open up the floor,and people can share their stories." "We got some great drink specials -- cancertinis and chemo shooters." " Have a great time." " Thanks." "Bye-bye." "You sit here." "Can I get you a,uh,chemo shooter?" "Oh,well,why not?" "I'll take a cancertini." "Cancertini." "Okay." "Anything for you?" "It's on me.All right." "Matt:" "Hello,everyone." "Thank you for coming out today." "It's really great to see some new faces in the crowd." "We are here because people our age get cancer,and no one cares but us." "1 in 10 cancer survivors is under 40." "There are 10 million cancer survivors,so there's 1 million of us, and there's no excuse to ever feel alone." "Someone just told me that they'd never been to a happy hour where everyone was actually happy." "So,you know,I'm a 12-year survivor." "We're changing the rules and making it hip to be a survivor." "Talk openly about our experiences." "We are not victims." "We are survivors,and we are too young for this." "The floor is open if anyone would like to share their story." "Right here!" "Thank you." "Hi." "I'm vivy." "Hi,vivy." "You know,it's funny,'cause when I was a kid," "I used to think that being an astronaut must be the loneliest job in the world." "I mean,how do you explain to someone what it's like to go to the moon and back who's never been?" "It's impossible,right?" "Then I got cancer." "And what I'm going through,my daily challenges are just -- they're making me feel so different from the people I love." "Like an astronaut who's just come back from the moon to his family." "And it's making me feel sad and lonely." "And I've been hiding my cancer." "I'm stenciling the eyebrows." "I've got this really fabulous wig,if I do say so myself." "Right?" "This whole neuropathy thing and these ugly shoes -- and I feel like it's just beginning." "So,I really need you to share with me what it's -- what it's like to go to the moon." "So,to your health." "**********Accident." "Her parents wanted her to lead a normal life,so they never told her." "That's why they moved from missouri to L.A." "Is but why would the effects of it come up so many years later?" "One of the doctors said in their findings there could be a trigger years later." "We went on a 10th anniversary roller coaster ride at magic mountain." "She always wanted to ride on one." "That would be a great place to start with her doctor."
