" We tried to find you." " A boy or a girl?" " A girl." " That's lucky." " She's just like you." "Lots of hair." " I think she knows me." "She's got your eyes." " Look at that." " I wanna keep her." "Of course you do." "Look at that itty-bitty face." "Excuse me, is there another Hotel Dupree around this area?" "No, it's the only one." "Problem?" "No, it's just not the dive I expected." "I'm here to see a guest." "Ray Ross?" "No, Mr. Ross is in the bar." " Why am I not surprised?" " But he isn't a guest." "Mr. Ross owns this hotel." " Hey." " Doug." "What a surprise." " You found me." " You left your number." "Yeah." "Come on, have a drink." "Listen, Ray, I just wanted to give you these." "I was gonna play along, Ray, like Mom and I always did." "Kind of take your gifts that drop out of the blue." "I decided, no, not gonna let you get away with it." "Not this time." "So...." "You're not my father." "A father is someone who was there." " You never were." " I know." "I'm sorry." "You and your mother deserved better." " She did." " You did too." " Hey, Jimmy, a bottle of Maker's here." " Right away." "I'm beat." "I delivered eight babies today." "Yeah." "Sure, I understand." "The night you were born, I swore I was a changed man." "Your mother must have told you how you came into this world." "It's a hell of a story." "She must have told you about the skates, huh?" "She tell you about the skates?" "We were at the cabin, and the lake" " The cabin, the one the bank took back?" " Well, that was a mix-up." "You weren't due for another two weeks, and your mother went into labor." " Right." " And the lake was frozen over." "The doctor was afraid to drive across the ice." "So there's your mother strapping on skates between contractions." "I thought I'd have to deliver you myself." " Where is everybody?" " You're the last one to clock out." " It's my last day for a while." " Good luck." "Excuse me." "Do you have any beet soup tonight?" " You want the beet soup?" " Surprise!" " Oh, they got you good!" " They did, didn't they?" "I hate you guys!" "I hate you!" " Congratulations, any day now." " We're so happy for you." " And happy it's not us." " Well put." "Here you go." "Little Susie liked it." "I hope you do." "One order of beet soup, and we can rush back for Conni's delivery." "I wish!" "Good shot." "Are you out of breath?" "No, no, no." "Get out of there!" " You're getting slow in your old age." " Come on, give me a break." "No, you can't spin it!" "Watch this one." "Better guard." "Score right there." " Rematch." "Two out of three." " What do you wanna play for?" "Tickets to the Bulls game." "One for each of us, all right?" "You're on." "Let's go." " Come on." " All right." "Are you out of breath yet?" "You need to sit down?" "Ready?" "Men are up." "That's a score, champ." "Ready?" "supplied by CoBeR coberus@go2.pl"
