"It's hard enough just to ask." "You can at least, for Christ's sake... lie to me." "I'm not an idiot." "Don't tell me "nothing"." "Ann, I can't." "All right." "Never mind." "We'll go to Houston." "Fine, fine, we'll all go to Houston." "I can hardly wait." "I met a woman on a train." "I don't know..." "Nothing happened." "I mean, we didn't..." "We never, you know..." "It's over now." "Nothing happened." "I'm not seeing her, I'm not having an affair." "It's nothing like that." "No..." "No, it's worse, isn't it?" "Look, I'm going to take a couple of weeks." "I'll take the kids." "We'll go to Denver to see my mother." "And then we'll see." "No, I'm all packed and ready to go." "You miss me?" "What do you mean "no"?" "What kind of answer is that?" "Well, how's your grandmother?" "Well, give her a hug for me, OK?" "A what?" "No, not a bug, dummy, a hug." "A hug!" "I'll see you in a couple of days." "I love you." "Bye." "Hi." "Yeah, I'm just waiting for the taxi." "Yeah, yeah." "I did switch 'em off." "Ann, I wanted to ask you something." "Yeah, all right." "All right." "All right." "I'll call you as soon as I get there." "OK, bye." "Yeah, yeah." "I will." "All right." "If I can find it." "I will, if I can find it, all right?" "OK." "Bye." "Oh, Ann!" "Brian, you gonna get that?" "Bri!" "Hello." "Hello." "Hello?" "Yes, hi." "No." "No, I..." "A bath, I was just going to take a bath." "Where are you?" "Are you all right?" "Is anything wrong?" "Yeah, yeah, I miss you." "You do?" "Well, I miss you." "I miss you too." "Well, I'm going away." "I'm going away." "I'm going to Houston." "I'm leaving tonight." "I'm leaving in a few minutes." "Now." "Where are you now?" "Home, my house." "How have you been?" "Terrible." "Yeah." "Well, listen..." "Christ, why do people say "listen" on the telephone?" "What else you gonna do?" "I wanna see you." "Can I see you before I go?" "I'm sorry, I know I shouldn't call you, I know that I'm..." "What?" "Please, just..." "I only have a few minutes." "I don't want to go." "I'm turning off lights in here, I don't know." "Please, could I see you?" "Could I just see you?" "Frank, I..." " You did get it." " Yeah, I got it." "It's for me." "Can you talk?" "What?" "Yeah." "Look, just come over." "I'm on Bradley, it's right off Clinton." "You know where it is." "It's 421 Bradley." "I'll wait for you." "Yeah, look, I just..." "Thanks for calling me and I really hope that everything works out for you." "That's all." "What do you mean?" "Goodbye." "Well, that's done." " I'm gonna go see him." " What are you doing?" "He's going away." "I won't be long." " Why are you doing this?" " I just wanna say goodbye." " Brian, please." " Listen..." " Please!" " He's going." "That's it." " That's the end of it!" " I have to go." "Hi." "These over here." " Wait, I'll be right back." " Sure." "Hello." "Yeah, is Molly there, please?" " Who is this?" " I'd like to speak to her if..." "Look, don't call here." "Why are you calling here?" "My wife doesn't want to talk to you." "She's in bed." "She's asleep." "All right?" "Anything else?" "Merry Christmas!" " Hey, Lasky." " Jesus, I can't believe it." " How are you?" " Great." "I'm great." "I'm good." "I'm not too bad." "I can't believe it was you on the phone." "What are you doing here?" "I came back." " What's this?" "Champagne?" " You want a beer?" " No." " You're sure?" " What are we celebrating?" " I'm getting married." " I am." " When?" "June." "Well, if the divorce comes through." "If not, we have to wait." "You're gonna be the best man." "June?" "I'll have to see cos I got an offer on the house." " Good." "Good." " I need somebody here for the..." "For the closure." "Sure." " You can do that if I'm in Houston?" " Sure, we can do that." "That's good." "So, this is permanent, then?" "Houston?" "Well..." "What about Ann?" "It didn't work out so she went back to Denver." "I'm sorry." "Yeah, well..." "I have the kids with me now." "So we're gonna stop off and see her on the way back." "I don't know." " Is that why you're back?" "The house?" " Yeah." "Yeah." "So, you're getting married?" "Well, congratulations." "I'm gonna call you every day from Barbados until you take this job." " No, you won't." " You're right, I won't." "Listen, Molly, why don't you come down with us?" " Oh, no!" " Why not?" "I'm sure he has a friend." "These guys always have friends." "They lift weights together." " Will you stop?" " What?" "Stop trying to fix me up." "I'm fine." "It's Christmas." "What are you gonna do all by yourself?" "I'm fine." "I'm fine." "Yeah." "I should stay home, too." "I don't know why I go every year, I have such a lousy time." "The truth is, you know..." "I don't think I like men any more." "Send me a postcard, OK?" "Bye." "You wanna try Lex?" "Yeah." "Same difference." "Same thing." "I'll get off over here." " Keep the change." " Thank you." "Jesus." "Hello." "How are you?" " You surprised me." " Me too." " Yeah." " Sorry." "No, good, good." "You look terrific." "How are you?" "I'm fine." "How are you?" "I'm good." "Good." "When did you get back?" "Little while ago." "A few weeks ago." " Just in time for Christmas." " Yeah." "Christmas." " How is it?" " Good." "Good." "I thought about you out there." "It was OK." "I mean, I thought about you." "I was wondering how it was going." "It didn't turn out exactly the way I expected but, you know." "Yeah." "I'm sorry I didn't get to see you when you left." "I'm sorry I didn't get to say goodbye or anything." "Well, that's OK." "I wanted to but..." "I mean, I tried." "I would have..." "You don't have to be polite about it." "I'm not..." "I'm not being polite." "I shouldn't have called you that night." "That was a mistake." "It was a bad time." "I was confused." "Yeah." "Sure." " How are you?" "You look great." " I'm..." "I'm..." "Well, thanks." " How's the family?" " Good." " Mike?" " Worse." "Oh, no."
