"Kyle decided to bring Marianne with us." "Hi Luella, you skank, what's up?" "On my way to have brunch, with Ginger." "Who?" "Your boss's new assistant, darling." "I'll play corporate spy and find out when she's hiring you back." "Didn't you hear, the economy's getting better." "I hope so or else there'll be an uprising of junior fashion editors sporting Hermes Uzis and Balenciaga AK-47s." "I'll get the dirt and call you tonight." "And you better invite me up some weekend."

"Ten years ago my Dad was a big-time hoarder." "Imagine it now." "Frankly, I'm glad I never had to meet your dad." "I wish I could say the same." "That's pitiful." "Anyway, I told you to patch things up with him before it was too late." "Don't even go there." "Imagine how I feel?" "Like a son who's lost his father." "It's normal to feel bad." "Be cool with me, okay?" "I'm walking into my past here." "It's heavy." "It's stressful." "Here goes nothing." "This is it." "Hey!" "You can't go in there." "Hi." "I'm Walter's son." "Who are you?"

"We were friends as kids." "Oh really." "We had some time off." "So it seemed..." "He tried to contact you." "Did he?" "I'm sorry, what's your name again?" "Birch." "Welcome." "Do you live here?" "Yeah." "There's no reception here." "Your sandals are to die for." "Oh yeah?" "I made them." "Kyle works in fashion." "Oh." "So, when did you two first meet?" "We were kids together." "Birch spent summers with his grandparents down the road." "You never told me about a Birch." "So, when did you and my dad become friends?" "When I started working for him five years ago." "Doing what?" "Everything." "What's that mean?" "Carpentry." "Tarring roofs." "Working leather." "Everything he tried to interest me in." "He straightened me out." "He was a great man." "I guess you'd know better than me." "All I know is he helped me." "I find that hard to imagine." "I haven't talked to the man in a decade." "Some old lady calls me and says he's been dead for weeks." "We drive up, and find that you've been hanging with him for five years." "Yeah." "That's about right." "Andrew wants to clean the place up." "We might use it on the weekends, or rent it out." "So..." "This is not how I pictured your room." "I sold everything so I could move to the city." "That's all that's left." "So this is your house, right?" "Of course." "It was just my dad and me." "I'm his only living relative." "Maybe your dad left it to him." "I wouldn't be surprised." "Birch is hot In a Little House on the Prairie sort of way." "He used to be heavy metal." "Supper's ready in twenty minutes." "Um... okay." "Thanks." "Supper?" "This trout is incredible." "Did you catch it?" "Yeah." "And I got the greens down by the stream." "They're good, huh?" "My dad used to take us fishing." "By the waterfall." "I still go there." "Damnit." "It keeps dropping me." "Try the trout." "Not to be rude, but I don't eat seafood." "You eat sushi all the time." "Eat what you're comfortable with." "This cheese is yummy." "I made it." "You make cheese?" "Out of what?" "Dairy products, Kyle, milk." "I know that, but from what animal?" "Beaver." "Beaver milk?" "Mostly, with a little coyote milk for that sharp bite." "He's yanking your chain." "When my grandparents died, Walt told me if I ever needed work to come see him." "But I wanted to roam." "I drove around, living in my truck." "What did you do for money?" "Sold off my grandparents' stuff at flea markets." "Oh." "I went all over." "Vermont, Kentucky." "But then I couldn't take it anymore." "Eating every meal at Quick Marts." "People out there are crazy... dangerous." "Drifters and Grifters Express I call it." "So I came back here, and haven't left since." "So..." "You took care of him when he got sick?" "Yeah." "You want to tell me what happened?" "I didn't know you were interested." "Well I am." "Okay..." "Well, we were doing a job for the Presbyterian church." "Making pews." "The day we loaded the last pew onto their flatbed truck," "Walt looked funny." "Like he'd lost twenty pounds overnight, and his skin was yellow." "He said his belly hurt." "A week later he died in bed." "Those are his last drawings." "They were on the bed with him when he died." "Oh my God" "[folk music plays]" "My grandma used to play this all the time!" "You mind turning that off while we talk." "He wanted to contact you... but he said you hated him." "Look, man, I feel really strange about all of this." "Andrew said he was a hoarder, but this place is pretty tidy." "No..." "That entire wall, from the floor to the ceiling, was newspapers." "It was a disaster in here." "It took us four months to clean." "I found reminders of you everywhere." "Really?" "School papers." "A Christmas list from 1991." "Aw, that's so cute." "The hoarding was part of his depression." "Your dad was a sad man." "Sad about what?" "Doesn't it take feelings, sensitivity to be sad?" "Man, you're bitter." "No, I'm a happy person, and that's because he's out of my life." "He lost the wife that he loved more than anything." "Then he drove his son away." "It wrecked him... for a while." "Then he got on with his life." "Is that when you skipped in?" "I was in bad shape, too." "We helped each other out." "Life got better." "That's interesting..." "So you became the dutiful surrogate son?" "I told Andrew to patch things up with his dad." "Why didn't you even call me, invite me to the funeral?" "I didn't know how to get a hold of you." "Have you heard of Google?" "I'm listed on the NYU grad student home page." "I don't do electric mail." "Helen found you somehow." "But you didn't even try." "You know, Andy, you were a lot nicer when we were kids." "What happened?" "Kitty Wells?" "Montana Slim?" "Who are these people?" "Look who's here, buddy, it's Andrew." "Can you believe it?" "How's it going up there, flying around with the hawks and eagles." "By the way, the paint on the gravestone is temporary." "I can't find a chisel." "But when I do, I'll get to work." "Isn't burying a body in your yard illegal?" "I mean, won't the health department get mad?" "We did what people've done for thousands of years." "When that old lady called" " Helen." "She said she didn't know what he had, but probably cancer." "Yeah, we think it was pancreatic." "You think?" "What did the doctors say?" "Your dad hated doctors." "No he didn't." "He changed a lot since you left home." "I haven't forgotten what an asshole he was when we were kids..." "How he treated you." "But he really did transform." "Transformed into a doctor-hater?" "So you just let him die?" "We prayed for him to get better." "What the fuck?" "Let me guess, you administered the chemo." "No." "Look." "He called up an old girlfriend." "A Christian Science practitioner." "This is getting crazy." "Helen moved in and became his nurse." "Spiritual nurse." "No drugs." "No chemo." "So you're telling me my atheist father became a Christian?" "A Christian Scientist." "And no, he didn't become one." "He just really liked to pray." "My dad never prayed a day in his life." "There's a lot you don't know." "Obviously." "He loved music." "Had a great voice." "There was always a record playing." "Cowboy singers like Gene Autry during the day." "At night it was Billie Holiday and Julie London." "Helen and I -- we made him comfortable." "We'd make him laugh." "And Copper slept with him." "It did a lot more good than radiation." "I don't know this man you're talking about." "It was something else being with him."

"Birch makes it sound like they were this happy, well-adjusted father and son who fish and build church pews together." "And make gorgeous sandals." "You think he's lying?" "My dad was mean-- not fun, not supportive." "Maybe they got in a fight." "Birch killed him in self-defense." "Or maybe he's a sociopath?" "He killed my dad for the house, the workshop, social security, his pension." "Maybe something else was going on." "Once, when we were kids, Birch shot a woodpecker with a BB gun." "Killed it." "So." "That's what red-necks do." "I don't think Birch murdered your dad." "He used to kick me, call me lard ass, called me a girl."

"Forty bucks a pair." "Are you kidding me?" "Forty dollars?" "It's not like there's a high demand." "Are you insane?" "These things are incredible." "People will love them." "Forty dollars?"
