Spring Forward
|
00:02:02 |
Armed robbery. |
00:02:05 |
I wasn't gonna ask that. |
00:02:07 |
You know, that's what it was. |
00:02:09 |
That's the story. |
00:02:12 |
You were gonna hear it sooner or later, |
00:02:14 |
None of my business. |
00:02:16 |
Sure, it is. |
00:02:18 |
Actually, you're right. |
00:02:23 |
You know, if we're going |
00:02:25 |
...you should know these things |
00:02:28 |
It's your right. |
00:02:30 |
It's your right |
00:02:32 |
I know. |
00:02:35 |
I agree. |
00:02:41 |
I walked into a Dunkin' Donuts at 2:00 a.m. |
00:02:44 |
- I was broke. |
00:02:50 |
- Dan. |
00:02:53 |
Oh, no? |
00:02:56 |
Fredrickson. |
00:02:58 |
Son of the first elector. |
00:03:00 |
The family owns a big nursery. |
00:03:02 |
Every year, |
00:03:05 |
Stuff from last year |
00:03:08 |
- Some donation. |
00:03:11 |
Yeah. |
00:03:13 |
He's lived here his whole life. |
00:03:17 |
They always pull that "local guy" stuff |
00:03:23 |
Fuckin' politicians for you. |
00:03:26 |
- Yeah. Where you from? |
00:03:29 |
When did you graduate? |
00:03:33 |
I was supposed to finish in '83... |
00:03:37 |
...but I didn't. |
00:03:39 |
Figured if I read a lot I'd be okay, you know? |
00:03:42 |
Sounds like a good idea. |
00:04:00 |
You read? |
00:04:02 |
I get the paper for the sports. |
00:04:06 |
- Current events? |
00:04:10 |
My wife reads all of Stephen King's. |
00:04:13 |
My son gave me this guy Jim... |
00:04:17 |
Jim Thompson? |
00:04:18 |
They're pretty good. |
00:04:22 |
I think I read about every Stephen King. |
00:04:36 |
Up in Danbury... |
00:04:39 |
...I started reading spiritual books. |
00:04:42 |
- Bible stuff? |
00:04:46 |
More spiritual. More like... |
00:04:50 |
...men's souls and their spirits, you know? |
00:04:53 |
Like how in society, they don't have the space. |
00:04:57 |
No sort of... |
00:04:59 |
- No fuckin' outlet for all the things... |
00:05:03 |
No more with that word. |
00:05:07 |
What? |
00:05:10 |
Oh! "Fuck." |
00:05:13 |
- Sorry. |
00:05:16 |
Sorry. |
00:05:24 |
How long were you in Danbury Correction? |
00:05:27 |
Eighteen months. |
00:05:29 |
It was only my first offense, you know. |
00:05:35 |
Here he is, driving his '98 BMW. |
00:05:48 |
Mr. Murphy. Hello. |
00:05:53 |
Hello, nice to see you. Very sorry I'm late. |
00:05:55 |
- That's okay. Where's the truck? |
00:05:58 |
- Fine. |
00:06:00 |
Fine. Where's the truck? |
00:06:02 |
They're not here yet? |
00:06:04 |
No. |
00:06:06 |
I was afraid of that. Hang on. |
00:06:10 |
I hope you don't have to load by yourself. |
00:06:13 |
Hey, Mona! |
00:06:15 |
I'm over at the storage barn. |
00:06:19 |
Well, what... |
00:06:21 |
How long of a delay? |
00:06:24 |
Goddamn. |
00:06:26 |
All right. No. |
00:06:28 |
No, I'll ask them if they want to wait, |
00:06:32 |
Trouble with a delivery over at Perkins... |
00:06:34 |
- We'll come back tomorrow. |
00:06:37 |
I need to get the stuff out of here today. |
00:06:44 |
Do you think you guys could start to load it on... |
00:06:46 |
...until my guys get here, |
00:06:49 |
Would that be okay? Hey. |
00:06:51 |
- That's Paul. He's the new guy. |
00:06:54 |
- Hi. How you doing? |
00:06:57 |
I know you guys need to get |
00:07:01 |
Could you just start? |
00:07:04 |
Just get over here immediately and help you out? |
00:07:09 |
Otherwise, I just can't think of what to do. |
00:07:14 |
I want the town to have access |
00:07:22 |
I don't want to load a bunch of... |
00:07:24 |
...seed fertilizer on the back of the truck. |
00:07:27 |
Do you? |
00:07:32 |
- Is there another way? |
00:07:35 |
Your guys are supposed to help us |
00:07:38 |
My father donates all the materials. |
00:07:43 |
Sometimes he has his employees |
00:07:47 |
It's a donation for the town. |
00:07:50 |
Since you guys work for the town, I thought... |
00:07:52 |
Maybe Terry Kaiser can send someone over to... |
00:07:55 |
I have to get going. Let's wrap this up. |
00:07:57 |
Let's take a look at what there is. |
00:08:01 |
Wait a second. |
00:08:03 |
I don't know what's going on. I just started. |
00:08:05 |
But don't go walking over there, |
00:08:10 |
What the fuck is that? |
00:08:15 |
I'm just going to show you |
00:08:20 |
I know this is your first day, but... |
00:08:25 |
It's a donation for the town. |
00:08:29 |
Shut up a second. |
00:08:32 |
...then act like we're doing it |
00:08:35 |
Fuck. |
00:08:36 |
I don't think you understand... |
00:08:38 |
Just show us what your father wants to donate. |
00:08:58 |
I guess these throw away. No. These look... |
00:09:03 |
I don't know if they're supposed to go. |
00:09:05 |
And, see... |
00:09:07 |
- Be careful, don't get the fertilizer in the hand... |
00:09:10 |
Okay. And as I say... |
00:09:12 |
...l'll tell Sanchez and Ricky to skip lunch and... |
00:09:16 |
That'd be fine. |
00:09:18 |
Back the truck up, will you? The keys are in it. |
00:09:20 |
Great. |
00:09:22 |
You gonna stick around and give us a hand? |
00:09:24 |
What? I mean... |
00:09:27 |
Okay. |
00:09:31 |
My guys shouldn't be that long. |
00:09:35 |
- Usually, I have gloves in the car. |
00:09:44 |
It's not a question of gloves, really. I mean... |
00:09:47 |
It's not my job. |
00:09:49 |
I run the business. |
00:09:54 |
- Neither were we, really. |
00:10:01 |
I'll run back to the nursery, see if I can |
00:10:06 |
That makes more sense. |
00:10:07 |
- Whatever. |
00:10:10 |
I said I'll go back, free up one of the workers |
00:10:14 |
- I said I'll do it, I'm gonna do it. |
00:10:18 |
I don't like your attitude, Mr... |
00:10:21 |
- I don't like yours, faggot. |
00:10:23 |
- Fuckin' faggot comes here like the king of Siam! |
00:10:26 |
Sorry, Mr. Murphy. I won't say "fuck" anymore... |
00:10:29 |
He means the word "faggot," moron. |
00:10:32 |
- Jesus Christ! |
00:10:35 |
It's okay, Ronnie. |
00:10:37 |
I don't mean anything negative. |
00:10:40 |
Enough, Ronnie. |
00:10:51 |
Look, I've got to go. |
00:10:53 |
I'm very sorry the guys aren't here. |
00:10:58 |
Call Terry Kaiser. |
00:11:00 |
Tell him we're gonna be longer than we thought. |
00:11:02 |
As soon as I know what's going on. |
00:11:05 |
Tell Bobby my thoughts are with him. |
00:11:07 |
And please say hello to your wife for me |
00:11:12 |
I will. |
00:11:29 |
"When I see her," |
00:11:43 |
- I'm sorry. I didn't mean "faggot" like... |
00:11:53 |
- I got nothing against them, you know. |
00:12:00 |
- I meant "pussy." That guy was a pussy. |
00:12:05 |
Enough. |
00:12:10 |
I meant no insult at all. |
00:12:13 |
It's no problem. |
00:12:15 |
Let it go. |
00:12:20 |
I don't even know your son. |
00:12:22 |
I don't even know you. Here I am... |
00:12:25 |
My first day, and I can't even... |
00:12:31 |
What is it, three hours? And already I'm... |
00:12:35 |
I quit. |
00:12:37 |
- What are you doing? |
00:12:40 |
He has authority. |
00:12:43 |
Fuck! |
00:12:46 |
I call your son a faggot. I mean... |
00:12:48 |
Shit! Three fucking hours. |
00:12:52 |
For some fuckin' reason, |
00:12:58 |
My first fuckin' day! |
00:13:45 |
Fuck. |
00:13:53 |
- I can't do this. |
00:13:59 |
I'm sorry, but I'm not gonna make it here. |
00:14:03 |
Relax! |
00:14:06 |
- The guy is a jerk! |
00:14:10 |
- I mean, your son. I had no... |
00:14:13 |
I'm not insulted. |
00:14:16 |
The language, that's all... |
00:14:18 |
The son of the first elector, |
00:14:21 |
Kaiser hates this guy. I mean, the guy is... |
00:14:26 |
The guy's got a cupcake mentality. |
00:14:34 |
Cupcake mentality? |
00:14:39 |
He's a jerk! A soft life, his whole life. |
00:15:09 |
- I just need to start with a lawyer. |
00:15:12 |
My parole would be so completely fucked. |
00:15:14 |
Forget it! Last thing Fredrickson wants |
00:15:18 |
This is the shit those books |
00:15:32 |
Should we... |
00:15:34 |
...start loading that stuff? |
00:15:36 |
No. |
00:15:39 |
What about... |
00:15:43 |
You really think |
00:15:46 |
No. He's a liar. |
00:15:49 |
Guys like that, |
00:15:51 |
I smell that, and I swear to God, |
00:15:54 |
- I know, but you've gotta watch that. |
00:15:57 |
The only thing it's gonna get you |
00:16:00 |
- No offense. |
00:16:04 |
I'm not saying that. |
00:16:07 |
Do what you wanna do. |
00:16:08 |
A guy'll tell you to do something... |
00:16:10 |
...and just by having the balls to say it out loud... |
00:16:14 |
He got the upper hand on you... |
00:16:15 |
If you say no, you're the problem, |
00:16:19 |
...by telling you what to do, like you're unhuman. |
00:16:21 |
They back you into a corner |
00:16:26 |
Know how many people wanna hire you |
00:16:30 |
It's like, "Hello! I'm radioactive!" |
00:16:32 |
Kaiser hired you. |
00:16:40 |
One guy. |
00:16:43 |
He just told me, "I've been there." |
00:16:44 |
He was! The judge told him, |
00:16:48 |
- I didn't get a choice. |
00:16:54 |
- I needed the money. |
00:16:56 |
I bought a car so I could get to my new job. |
00:16:59 |
A good job. |
00:17:01 |
Working at the kitchen over there, |
00:17:04 |
Minimum wage, but hey, right? |
00:17:06 |
One whole year I looked, taking those |
00:17:12 |
I demoed for a guy five weeks in a row. |
00:17:16 |
Ripped down asbestos for him, |
00:17:19 |
And now, could I help him out? |
00:17:21 |
Meanwhile, I eat peanut butter sandwiches, |
00:17:25 |
- Couldn't say he was fuckin' me or... |
00:17:31 |
Sorry. |
00:17:36 |
So that job was over. |
00:17:38 |
Never saw the money. |
00:17:40 |
I couldn't get unemployment. |
00:17:43 |
Why call it unemployment? |
00:17:44 |
Watch this. That's sumac. It's poisonous. |
00:17:47 |
So I get the job at IBM. |
00:17:49 |
After two weeks, I get my first paycheck for $310. |
00:17:52 |
- Tax. |
00:17:54 |
I go to the manager, say, |
00:17:57 |
"No, there isn't," he says. So I tell him: |
00:17:59 |
"Look. I worked 91 hours at $5.25." |
00:18:03 |
I feel something coming on. |
00:18:04 |
He tells me that four of my days |
00:18:07 |
- When I'm not... |
00:18:09 |
Where I'm just learning the ropes. |
00:18:11 |
I don't get paid for those, |
00:18:16 |
That would have frosted me! |
00:18:18 |
What? |
00:18:20 |
Frosted. |
00:18:22 |
- Pissed me off. |
00:18:25 |
I tell him I don't think that's fair. |
00:18:27 |
He says it is. |
00:18:29 |
Like I was a fuckin' junkie or something. |
00:18:32 |
Next thing I know, |
00:18:34 |
...like I was some kind of terrorist. |
00:18:37 |
- Jesus. |
00:18:40 |
I just saw the whole thing slipping away, |
00:18:45 |
My friend's wife giving him shit about |
00:18:49 |
So I go into this Dunkin' Donuts off |
00:18:53 |
And I rob them. |
00:18:56 |
What was I gonna do? |
00:19:09 |
What about the armed part? |
00:19:11 |
Were you on the drugs? |
00:19:14 |
No. |
00:19:17 |
I figured I wasn't going without a gun, you know. |
00:19:20 |
Some off-duty cop. You never know. |
00:19:26 |
How'd they catch you? |
00:19:33 |
A woman who worked there |
00:19:41 |
What was I gonna do? Shoot her? |
00:19:46 |
Next morning, |
00:19:48 |
All night, I sweat bullets, |
00:19:51 |
In the morning, I get busted. |
00:19:53 |
It's tough! |
00:19:55 |
Worst part is, these cops driving me |
00:19:59 |
I've never been so hungry in my entire life. |
00:20:12 |
I need this job, Mr. Murphy. |
00:20:15 |
I gotta get back on track, you know? |
00:20:32 |
Sure you don't want me to load that fertilizer? |
00:20:34 |
No. |
00:20:36 |
- I don't mind loading it by myself. |
00:20:40 |
You heard him. |
00:20:41 |
He's got deliveries all day tomorrow. |
00:20:44 |
He's gotta have that space cleaned out, |
00:20:48 |
We're not gonna do something for him |
00:20:51 |
The minute he said that, I knew we had him. |
00:20:54 |
- Isn't he expecting us to do it? |
00:20:58 |
We'll go to the duck pond, |
00:21:00 |
Eat lunch. Go prune the border back. |
00:21:08 |
It was one of those places, |
00:21:13 |
Just saw red. |
00:21:16 |
Got a lot to learn. |
00:22:43 |
I read this interview with the Dalai Lama... |
00:22:45 |
- Wait. |
00:22:48 |
- I know who he is. |
00:22:50 |
This interview asks him what human behavior |
00:22:55 |
Like an early warning sign |
00:22:59 |
...or closer to another... |
00:23:01 |
...Nazi attitude. |
00:23:03 |
The Dalai Lama looks at him for a second, |
00:23:06 |
"Routine." |
00:23:13 |
Routine? |
00:23:14 |
Yeah! Like, everybody unconsciously... |
00:23:19 |
...or even consciously, I guess, |
00:23:22 |
Just following the same system or rules. |
00:23:24 |
Routine. |
00:23:26 |
- Programmed? |
00:23:29 |
You want a coffee? |
00:23:31 |
Maybe you've had enough coffee today already. |
00:23:35 |
Get me a... |
00:23:40 |
I don't have any money. |
00:23:42 |
Me neither. It's payday. |
00:23:44 |
I must have left it on the dresser. |
00:23:46 |
I'm sorry about that $20 I owe you. |
00:23:49 |
Don't worry about it. |
00:23:50 |
No. |
00:23:52 |
- I like to pay my debts. |
00:23:55 |
I told you, pay me when you can. |
00:23:59 |
This is getting a little routine. |
00:24:02 |
That's very good. |
00:24:06 |
You think I don't listen. |
00:24:20 |
Fuckin' vandals. |
00:24:23 |
Vandals. |
00:24:26 |
What's the point of this? |
00:24:28 |
They're losers. |
00:24:33 |
- Kids are spoiled, don't know they got it good. |
00:24:37 |
...you just have to say, "Things are looking up." |
00:24:41 |
Start looking up. You have to make an effort. |
00:24:46 |
Look here. Here's a wallet. |
00:24:54 |
Senior ID. Driver's license. |
00:24:59 |
Dennis Ramirez. |
00:25:01 |
Rubber. $50. The whole thing. |
00:25:04 |
Looks like Dennis is gonna have |
00:25:07 |
No. We'll take it back to his parents. |
00:25:10 |
What are you talking about? |
00:25:14 |
People learn to behave. They set me straight. |
00:25:16 |
Maybe they'll get him |
00:25:20 |
It's not armed robbery, you know. |
00:25:26 |
It's a senior prom prank. |
00:25:41 |
You know about karma? |
00:25:44 |
Yeah. |
00:25:49 |
- Okay, no. |
00:25:52 |
- American Indian? |
00:25:55 |
The energy you put out there... |
00:25:57 |
Energy? |
00:26:00 |
More like the good fortune you put out there. |
00:26:04 |
When you put it out there, it stores up. |
00:26:08 |
Then there's so much, |
00:26:11 |
...and you have... |
00:26:14 |
...more good fortune. |
00:26:18 |
So, basically... |
00:26:22 |
...what goes around comes around? |
00:26:25 |
Yeah. |
00:26:45 |
Losers. |
00:26:47 |
They got boot camps for vandals. |
00:26:59 |
What do I know? |
00:27:13 |
My father used to sing every morning. |
00:27:16 |
While he was having his coffee. While he shaved. |
00:27:20 |
Even when he was losing his shirt at the pub. |
00:27:25 |
He'd make this effort to sing. |
00:27:53 |
- You believe what goes around comes around? |
00:28:01 |
So, my life has been so fucked up |
00:28:04 |
Like, I was sending out bad karma? |
00:28:05 |
No, it's a different thing entirely. |
00:28:09 |
A little bad fortune. |
00:28:12 |
Couple of bad breaks. |
00:28:14 |
You get into a cycle like we were talking about. |
00:28:17 |
Routine. |
00:28:19 |
I gotta break the routine? |
00:28:22 |
Yeah. |
00:28:26 |
How? |
00:28:27 |
One thing would be not to be so apologetic |
00:28:31 |
- You think I am? |
00:28:33 |
You were in a tough spot. |
00:28:38 |
- Put it behind you. |
00:28:40 |
- How? |
00:28:46 |
Learned the rules of society, you know? |
00:28:48 |
Paid my debt to society. |
00:28:50 |
I realized I lived amongst others. |
00:28:53 |
- Paid my debt to society. |
00:28:58 |
You broke 'em. You were in a tough spot. |
00:29:00 |
But still, I had... |
00:29:01 |
How does your jail time affect things |
00:29:06 |
As a matter of fact... |
00:29:08 |
...see, with the apologizing |
00:29:12 |
...might make you worse. |
00:29:13 |
- No, I wouldn't say that. Definitely not. |
00:29:19 |
Wait a minute. |
00:29:20 |
- Are you talking about me owing you money? |
00:29:23 |
The fact that you worry about it, |
00:29:27 |
Remember that day last week? |
00:29:28 |
Three times you said there was no water |
00:29:32 |
- You thought I was lying? |
00:29:35 |
You don't owe me anything, okay? Nothing. |
00:29:37 |
You and me, we're the same. That's it. |
00:29:40 |
If I lend you money, I tell you |
00:29:45 |
You're starting to bug me |
00:29:48 |
Be who you are. Say what you want. |
00:29:50 |
- I can handle that, okay? |
00:29:56 |
Give me back the wallet. |
00:29:59 |
I'm gonna take it over there to his house. |
00:30:02 |
So he'll know I know who he is. |
00:30:06 |
I know where he lives. |
00:30:09 |
And I'm giving him a break. |
00:30:12 |
That puts some good karma out there, |
00:30:15 |
Karma. Fuck. |
00:30:18 |
- Quit saying "fuck." |
00:30:30 |
What the fuck? |
00:30:37 |
I'll just get out of here, okay? |
00:30:39 |
Let me get my stuff out. No force! Okay? |
00:30:46 |
Brooks. Fran Brooks. |
00:30:49 |
Who's that? |
00:30:51 |
My God. You're Fran Brooks. |
00:30:53 |
- Who the fuck are you? |
00:30:55 |
- You're Fran Brooks. |
00:30:57 |
- I said watch your mouth! |
00:31:01 |
Rob... |
00:31:03 |
- Bobby Murphy's father. |
00:31:06 |
I'm Bobby Murphy's father. |
00:31:18 |
Mr. Murphy? |
00:31:31 |
You got a cigarette, sir? |
00:31:37 |
Give him a cigarette. |
00:31:49 |
This is Paul. |
00:31:52 |
- Hi. |
00:32:00 |
What are you doing in there? |
00:32:06 |
- Fran, what are you doing back there? |
00:32:10 |
- You living in there? |
00:32:12 |
- You can't live under there. |
00:32:14 |
- It's illegal! |
00:32:16 |
Take it easy, Paul. |
00:32:21 |
- So, what's your plan? |
00:32:26 |
You're not still drinking, are you? |
00:32:30 |
You, sir? |
00:32:35 |
You hungry? |
00:32:38 |
I am, sir. |
00:32:42 |
I'm gonna give you some money. |
00:32:46 |
- They won't let me in. |
00:32:50 |
- He don't want me there. |
00:32:52 |
- Stuck up! |
00:32:54 |
Look... |
00:32:57 |
- I don't have any money. |
00:33:09 |
Let's see if we can turn Dennis Ramirez's... |
00:33:12 |
...karma around. |
00:33:17 |
Go over there. Get a table. Order up some eggs. |
00:33:21 |
I'll just... |
00:33:23 |
I'll be a few minutes. |
00:33:25 |
I don't want to leave the tools. |
00:33:28 |
- You want a fried-egg hero? |
00:33:36 |
How is Bobby, Mr. Murphy? |
00:33:39 |
- I heard he was doing well. Some big job. |
00:33:44 |
Hey, Frannie? |
00:33:49 |
Actually, he's not doing so good. |
00:33:54 |
I'm sorry to hear that, sir. |
00:33:56 |
I always liked Bobby. |
00:33:58 |
I know you did. |
00:34:03 |
Things will be better. |
00:34:08 |
I hope so. |
00:34:41 |
Jesus! |
00:34:48 |
Everything's out of whack. |
00:35:51 |
What? |
00:35:52 |
Is it the money? 'Cause I'll buy you the pills. |
00:35:57 |
No. |
00:35:58 |
If you take drugs, you reduce your body's |
00:36:02 |
Drugs? |
00:36:04 |
It's an antihistamine. Doctors take them. |
00:36:06 |
- What? It's not a natural thing to do? |
00:36:10 |
If you want to go see this car naturally, |
00:36:13 |
Christ, Murph, come on! |
00:36:16 |
What's with "natural"? Okay, "natural." |
00:36:20 |
Science is not a bad thing. |
00:36:24 |
I know. I'm just trying to balance my body. |
00:36:27 |
Mind and body clean. Keep 'em one. |
00:36:30 |
- The hangovers last week, what was that? |
00:36:32 |
I would call that an imbalance, all right? |
00:36:35 |
Of course, |
00:36:40 |
This happens to me every year. I'm used to it. |
00:36:42 |
Maybe it's part of a mutation process. |
00:36:45 |
I'll survive the greenhouse effect, you won't. |
00:36:47 |
You think somebody wants you to survive, |
00:36:51 |
Shit. Come on. I told the car guy by 12:30. |
00:36:59 |
45 Oakridge Way. |
00:37:04 |
I don't know why you have to have a car. |
00:37:07 |
I don't mind picking you up on the way in. |
00:37:10 |
It's the summer, all right? |
00:37:14 |
Maybe you ought to tell the girls |
00:37:17 |
That's a good tactic. |
00:37:20 |
Sometimes you're so lame, you know that? |
00:37:23 |
What are you doing? |
00:37:28 |
What's killing me right now is listening to you. |
00:37:33 |
All the classics, all the time, on WMRA. |
00:37:47 |
The other night, I couldn't take it anymore. |
00:37:50 |
I wanted sex. |
00:37:53 |
I'm a guy. |
00:37:58 |
So I went down to the Ancient Mariner. |
00:38:03 |
I gotta get laid. Start talking to this girl, Julie. |
00:38:07 |
28. Stacked. Beautiful. Drunk. |
00:38:10 |
She's there with her girlfriends |
00:38:13 |
- What, she's like a fifth wheel? |
00:38:15 |
I'm dressed exactly like the boyfriends. |
00:38:20 |
...docksiders... |
00:38:22 |
- They're like boat shoes. |
00:38:28 |
They all wear 'em, okay? |
00:38:31 |
So I told her I work in my father's gardening firm |
00:38:37 |
She says, "You know, you got a great body. |
00:38:40 |
"How'd you get so tanned?" |
00:38:45 |
"I work outside all day with my shirt off." |
00:38:47 |
- "I thought you sold garden supplies." |
00:38:50 |
- Bitch just gets up, turns around... |
00:38:54 |
The snot gets up, gives me this look like "later"... |
00:38:58 |
...gets her two friends and leaves. |
00:39:02 |
Like I wasn't good enough for her or something. |
00:39:05 |
How would a '77 Datsun change this? |
00:39:10 |
I could have left with her. |
00:39:13 |
I got a car. I would have seemed like less of a... |
00:39:16 |
- Less of a what? A liar? |
00:39:20 |
That's when you're not telling the truth. |
00:39:22 |
- Mr. Philosopher. |
00:39:27 |
- What? |
00:39:30 |
"I go in the bar to get laid." |
00:39:32 |
Not, "I go to have a good time, |
00:39:35 |
That's pretty narrow, you know? |
00:39:37 |
What are you? The Dalai Lama? |
00:39:39 |
"Hello, Dolly..." |
00:39:46 |
Sometimes when it gets heavy like this |
00:39:52 |
- I've been having these weird dreams. |
00:39:56 |
Come on. Take 10. |
00:40:05 |
I wrote down this one dream, |
00:40:09 |
Like a monster or something. |
00:40:12 |
I got this huge gun. |
00:40:15 |
This other guy's supposed to be with me. |
00:40:18 |
A Native guide or something, |
00:40:22 |
But he's missing, and it's definitely dangerous. |
00:40:25 |
I don't see any tracks or anything, but... |
00:40:28 |
...there is no way I'm leaving this path. |
00:40:36 |
And the birds are whispering, "A gun is stupid." |
00:40:42 |
I think they want me to drop the gun as a trick... |
00:40:45 |
...so that I get killed or something. |
00:40:48 |
My hands are sinking into |
00:40:53 |
At that exact moment... |
00:40:55 |
- The monster appears. |
00:40:58 |
And I'm just terrified. |
00:41:01 |
I just piss my pants right there. |
00:41:04 |
Then I notice this other set of eyes... |
00:41:06 |
...like a little dog. |
00:41:10 |
A puppy. |
00:41:18 |
Suddenly my hands are just freed from the gun. |
00:41:25 |
So the puppy leads me off the path and... |
00:41:28 |
...out to this... |
00:41:30 |
...big field. |
00:41:34 |
The puppy comes up to me, |
00:41:38 |
...with smoke coming out of it... |
00:41:40 |
Light blue. |
00:41:44 |
And we eat it. |
00:41:46 |
And I feel this... |
00:41:49 |
Relief? |
00:41:51 |
No. More like... |
00:41:54 |
I don't know. Knowledge. |
00:41:57 |
And I'm not so... |
00:41:59 |
I don't feel like I need |
00:42:04 |
I feel like I can just sit there. |
00:42:07 |
The puppy. |
00:42:09 |
The birds. |
00:42:11 |
I can hear the breeze. The whole thing just... |
00:42:15 |
It just feels... |
00:42:17 |
...more alive. |
00:42:48 |
- What are you doing? |
00:42:51 |
The guy's waiting with the car. |
00:42:55 |
You want her to get a ticket? |
00:42:58 |
You asshole. |
00:43:01 |
Whenever you wanna do something... |
00:43:02 |
Besides, we don't want to waste the water, |
00:43:06 |
Don't. Please? |
00:43:11 |
Miss! |
00:43:13 |
Excuse me, miss. |
00:43:14 |
I called Parks and Rec five months ago. |
00:00:04 |
The previous owner |
00:00:06 |
Railroad ties, gravel. |
00:00:09 |
You never came. |
00:00:13 |
- We never heard about 'em. |
00:00:16 |
Covered in dog shit, but still there. |
00:00:19 |
- What's the matter with your eyes? |
00:00:22 |
- I got allergies. |
00:00:26 |
- Don't you take anything? |
00:00:29 |
You know the herbal tea? |
00:00:33 |
- No. |
00:00:34 |
I got some. It tastes like hell, |
00:00:38 |
- When it doesn't, I take a prescription. |
00:00:42 |
- What do you think? |
00:00:47 |
It's a good way to be. Don't make fun of him. |
00:00:49 |
I'm not making fun of him. |
00:00:53 |
- You know about the new watering law? |
00:00:56 |
I let my lawn die, |
00:01:02 |
Jesus. You sound like shit. Do you want a pill? |
00:01:04 |
- No, thanks. |
00:01:07 |
- He's trying to cleanse. |
00:01:09 |
- I'm not... |
00:01:13 |
- You eating cheese? |
00:01:16 |
He had pizza for lunch yesterday. |
00:01:21 |
- I'm trying to cut down. |
00:01:27 |
Come in. I'll give you some of that tea. |
00:01:29 |
It's herbal. Herbal's good for you. |
00:01:34 |
Come on. The car guy's waiting. |
00:01:37 |
- Are you on lunch break? |
00:01:39 |
So am I. I'll give you some food. |
00:01:43 |
I've just gotta feed these puppies. |
00:01:46 |
Two minutes! There goes the break. |
00:01:47 |
Get some of this tea off of her anyway. |
00:01:50 |
Come on, quick! |
00:01:53 |
Get back! |
00:01:54 |
I got 'em. Watch the puppy! |
00:01:59 |
Look at that one. Watch it. Get it! |
00:02:02 |
There's too many pharmaceutical labs |
00:02:06 |
Come on! |
00:02:17 |
Come on. Out. |
00:02:19 |
Lunchtime. |
00:02:24 |
Just make yourselves comfortable |
00:02:29 |
They're beautiful, aren't they? |
00:02:31 |
- What are they? |
00:02:33 |
Black lab, though. Why, you want one? |
00:02:37 |
- I don't know if it's... |
00:02:47 |
- You got a dog? |
00:02:50 |
Never? |
00:02:51 |
- Not even when you were a kid? |
00:02:54 |
Look how much |
00:03:00 |
You wanna show me |
00:03:03 |
...and we can load them up? |
00:03:05 |
Right back there behind the shed. |
00:03:08 |
Take the ties and the gravel, I'll throw in a dog. |
00:03:11 |
I don't think my wife |
00:03:13 |
It's up to Paul there. |
00:03:16 |
Never mind the bong. Look out for the dog shit. |
00:03:24 |
She likes you. |
00:03:29 |
You got a girlfriend? |
00:03:31 |
No. |
00:03:32 |
- A roommate? |
00:03:35 |
- Yard? |
00:03:38 |
You should take her. |
00:03:40 |
You never get lonely. |
00:03:41 |
I come home from work, I'm so glad they're here. |
00:03:44 |
It's like a marriage. |
00:03:46 |
A group marriage. |
00:03:49 |
They're our equals, you know, animals. |
00:03:51 |
Some ways, our superiors. |
00:03:54 |
They don't care who you are. |
00:03:56 |
You're sincere with them, they love you. |
00:03:58 |
No head trips. |
00:04:03 |
I don't think that humankind |
00:04:07 |
A lot of problems would be solved |
00:04:11 |
I love animals. |
00:04:13 |
- You eat meat? |
00:04:15 |
That's good. |
00:04:17 |
I mean, how could you love a... |
00:04:20 |
...sweet little thing like that and eat a steak? |
00:04:22 |
You know? |
00:04:27 |
You should take her. |
00:04:35 |
If you don't want her, |
00:04:41 |
- Okay. |
00:04:43 |
Here. I'll give you my number. |
00:04:57 |
- Thanks. |
00:04:58 |
- Paul. |
00:05:02 |
I work at the school. |
00:05:04 |
Why did I say that? |
00:05:05 |
Don't you hate it when people define you |
00:05:08 |
- We were just talking about... |
00:05:12 |
- There's... |
00:05:15 |
I went to that bar, the Ancient Mariner. |
00:05:17 |
They all look like escapees |
00:05:21 |
Chinos, the whole uniform. |
00:05:33 |
Look how much she loves you. |
00:05:42 |
I don't have a car... |
00:05:43 |
Murph and me, we were gonna go look at one. |
00:05:47 |
- I'm sorry. |
00:05:50 |
It's just that in this town... |
00:05:53 |
...there's not a lot to do without a car... |
00:05:57 |
I have a car. |
00:06:01 |
You can... |
00:06:03 |
...go other places and stuff... |
00:06:04 |
- But me, I mostly... |
00:06:08 |
Those ties, gravel, |
00:06:11 |
Did you see the old barrels? |
00:06:13 |
- Barrels? |
00:06:15 |
Next to the shed, not behind it. |
00:06:17 |
Next to the shed. |
00:06:19 |
I'll go look. |
00:06:27 |
So, you don't have a car. |
00:06:36 |
- You want to go out sometime? |
00:06:38 |
- I mean, it's... |
00:06:41 |
Because in this town, there's not a lot... |
00:06:43 |
I can drive. Just call me. |
00:06:47 |
Okay. |
00:06:50 |
When? |
00:06:52 |
- When? |
00:06:55 |
- You don't waste any time, do you? |
00:07:03 |
There's only one barrel. |
00:07:05 |
I know. It's back there. |
00:07:08 |
We've got time to look at the car if... |
00:07:10 |
I got some Kleenex if you guys want it. |
00:07:14 |
And you're taking a pill. |
00:07:22 |
- I'll take the pill. |
00:07:24 |
I didn't wanna go |
00:07:28 |
She got hungry... |
00:07:29 |
We don't have to rush. Haste makes waste. |
00:07:33 |
You gonna ask her out? |
00:07:37 |
I already did. |
00:08:25 |
One year McCain had these left over. |
00:08:28 |
Every year they come up. |
00:08:31 |
Lilies round the trash. |
00:08:38 |
You know... |
00:08:41 |
...I been thinking about going |
00:08:45 |
The thing in the woods? The brochure? |
00:08:48 |
- It only costs $200. |
00:08:54 |
That includes food... |
00:08:57 |
...lodging... |
00:09:02 |
- Food... |
00:09:06 |
I don't know. They got Porta-Potties. |
00:09:09 |
Must be money for the organization, too. |
00:09:11 |
They got speakers! They got a sweat lodge, too. |
00:09:15 |
Sweat lodge? |
00:09:17 |
A sweat lodge. It's like a sauna. |
00:09:21 |
It's like an American Indian hut |
00:09:27 |
It's like healing. |
00:09:28 |
You need healing from the wound |
00:09:32 |
It's just a place for men... |
00:09:35 |
...to go and relate to other men |
00:09:39 |
Feel good. |
00:09:46 |
You don't have to spend $200 |
00:09:48 |
- I know. |
00:09:50 |
You know what? Maybe it's not about the money. |
00:09:53 |
Like you say. |
00:10:00 |
You watch late-night TV? |
00:10:02 |
You know those guys... |
00:10:05 |
They're speakers and they're selling their tapes, |
00:10:09 |
What do you call that? |
00:10:10 |
- Infomercials. |
00:10:13 |
If they really got the secret to inner peace, |
00:10:35 |
Why do you have to pee back there? |
00:10:37 |
Too much soda. |
00:10:40 |
That makes sense if you think about it. |
00:10:44 |
What are you doing? |
00:10:46 |
Us? |
00:10:47 |
We're playing tennis. What's it look like? |
00:10:52 |
- Right? |
00:10:53 |
Yeah, we are, too. |
00:10:57 |
Can I try? |
00:11:00 |
I don't know. What do you think? |
00:11:03 |
- He looks like a tennis player to me. |
00:11:07 |
All right. |
00:11:08 |
This is what you do. You paint. |
00:11:11 |
Here to here, there to there. Right there. |
00:11:20 |
Watch it, now. |
00:11:24 |
- What do you think? |
00:11:29 |
What do you say? |
00:11:31 |
- Thank you. |
00:11:37 |
What do they find out |
00:11:41 |
We're all supposed to be warriors? |
00:11:43 |
Yeah. |
00:11:45 |
Just there aren't any more wars to test us. |
00:11:48 |
Plenty of wars. |
00:11:50 |
It's also a place for men to relate to other men. |
00:11:54 |
A place where it's safe for you |
00:11:57 |
Maybe figure out why you feel empty at your job. |
00:12:00 |
Why your life has no meaning. All that stuff. |
00:12:03 |
The speakers there... |
00:12:06 |
...they give you the meaning? |
00:12:07 |
I don't know. That's why I wanna go. |
00:12:09 |
There must be something behind it. |
00:12:13 |
Sure there's something. |
00:12:17 |
I read this really good book last week. |
00:12:19 |
- This one's good! |
00:12:21 |
This is a good one. |
00:12:24 |
In the Middle Ages, |
00:12:28 |
Then, in a later century... |
00:12:31 |
...all the biggest buildings are political palaces. |
00:12:34 |
Today, what are the biggest buildings? |
00:12:42 |
I mean, you know... |
00:12:44 |
That shows how things have changed... |
00:12:48 |
...over time. |
00:12:50 |
There's no room in society anymore |
00:12:53 |
It's all business now. |
00:13:05 |
Maybe that's why men feel empty at their jobs. |
00:13:10 |
I don't feel empty at my job. |
00:13:12 |
I like my job. |
00:13:14 |
I also like eating meatloaf, but what the heck? |
00:13:16 |
Okay. How come you go to church? |
00:13:18 |
I go to church to... |
00:13:21 |
...see my neighbors, think about my life. |
00:13:24 |
Wish people well. Help out. |
00:13:27 |
It's not all theology. |
00:13:30 |
- What's the point of that? |
00:13:34 |
That's just to hook you in. |
00:13:36 |
But you know what? |
00:13:39 |
People wanna do good. They wanna be good. |
00:13:42 |
The people that run these religions, |
00:13:45 |
They tell you, "This is what you do to be good." |
00:13:48 |
That makes you feel better. |
00:13:52 |
But it's mostly things |
00:13:57 |
How come they don't? |
00:13:58 |
Most do. |
00:14:01 |
Look at these lilies. |
00:14:04 |
I hope they come up next year. |
00:14:10 |
There's nothing that will make you feel emptier... |
00:14:14 |
...in your life... |
00:14:15 |
...than to spend all your time |
00:14:18 |
But nobody who wants your $200 |
00:14:21 |
What about war? |
00:14:24 |
That's money, too, isn't it? |
00:14:26 |
They might say it's about something else |
00:14:30 |
So you don't think man is naturally violent? |
00:14:34 |
"Man"? |
00:14:36 |
Come on. Look around you. |
00:14:43 |
Can my friend try? |
00:14:45 |
You want your friend to try? |
00:14:47 |
Get him to show you how. |
00:14:49 |
You gotta paint the back. |
00:14:56 |
There you go. |
00:14:59 |
Go ahead. |
00:15:03 |
- What's your name? |
00:15:07 |
- Okay. What's her name? |
00:15:10 |
You step on those lilies, |
00:15:15 |
He means that. |
00:15:17 |
You know what my general rule is? |
00:15:21 |
Look at Earth from the moon, |
00:15:25 |
It's all about money. |
00:15:29 |
What do you guys think? |
00:15:31 |
- Pretty good. |
00:15:33 |
Okay. You owe me $150. |
00:15:39 |
Bobby, come here. |
00:15:43 |
Go over there... |
00:15:45 |
...and get us four sodas. |
00:15:47 |
What do you say? |
00:15:49 |
"Please." Help him out there, would you? |
00:15:52 |
Make him hurry. |
00:15:56 |
It's so hot. |
00:15:58 |
In my little sweat lodge. |
00:16:59 |
This time of the school year, |
00:17:03 |
- I had it once. |
00:17:04 |
I don't know. It was kind of like sniffing glue. |
00:17:07 |
Except with a really great taste and no crash. |
00:17:14 |
In high school, they hired this guy, O'Rourke, |
00:17:19 |
He was an older guy, in his 20s. |
00:17:22 |
He was the kind of guy you related to. |
00:17:25 |
I mean, girls would leave notes with him. |
00:17:28 |
A book to give to somebody two periods later. |
00:17:31 |
He was cool, smoked cigarettes, |
00:17:35 |
Turns out the guy was a narc. |
00:17:37 |
- Canary. |
00:17:38 |
- Stool pigeon? |
00:17:39 |
All of a sudden, kids started getting busted. |
00:17:42 |
Vice-principal would find pot |
00:17:45 |
Cops would bust up parties |
00:17:49 |
No one could figure it out. |
00:17:50 |
Then one day, |
00:17:53 |
...tells O'Rourke she's going home for study hall, |
00:17:57 |
Twenty minutes later, vice-principal shows up, |
00:18:01 |
How old is she? |
00:18:03 |
I don't know. 16 or something. |
00:18:05 |
Anyway, they take the girl to the office |
00:18:09 |
The boyfriend... |
00:18:11 |
...sees O'Rourke in the vice-principal's office... |
00:18:14 |
...and he's going: |
00:18:15 |
"I know it wasn't drugs, |
00:18:20 |
That's how we knew. |
00:18:21 |
That was his proof O'Rourke knocked. |
00:18:24 |
He follows him out into the smoking lounge. |
00:18:26 |
And he confronts him. |
00:18:28 |
O'Rourke knows he's caught, |
00:18:32 |
- Boyfriend, he's a student? |
00:18:36 |
So then these gearheads, |
00:18:39 |
...come over to stick up for him. |
00:18:41 |
The boyfriend says, "Wait! This guy's a narc." |
00:18:43 |
The gearheads are like, "No way!" |
00:18:45 |
A couple of them believe him. |
00:18:48 |
He's got this hot '73 Duster. |
00:18:51 |
Finally, O'Rourke admits it. |
00:18:54 |
And he says: |
00:18:56 |
"I understand kids. Right? You know? |
00:19:00 |
"I just narc on them for their own good." |
00:19:04 |
Like learning your best friend was a Nazi. |
00:19:07 |
Deceived. |
00:19:08 |
But it was like someone who... |
00:19:11 |
- Betrayed. |
00:19:13 |
There you are in high school. |
00:19:15 |
You're young, of course you wanna... |
00:19:18 |
...hang out with girls, talk. |
00:19:20 |
Smoke a little weed. It's harmless, though. |
00:19:23 |
We were still learning. |
00:19:27 |
What does something like that teach you? |
00:19:30 |
"Don't trust someone you think is one of you. |
00:19:34 |
"Return to doing everything secretly." |
00:19:40 |
So what happened to O'Rourke? |
00:19:46 |
The gearheads beat the shit out of him. |
00:19:49 |
I guess he learned something, too. |
00:20:01 |
It's always a surprise when you're betrayed. |
00:20:06 |
Like when Don Regan comes and tells me... |
00:20:08 |
- You mean Regan from next door? |
00:20:10 |
My neighbor. |
00:20:12 |
He comes and tells me, in my house... |
00:20:15 |
...my son Bobby can't be scoutmaster |
00:20:22 |
My neighbor. |
00:20:24 |
Seen the kid grow up for 20 years. |
00:20:27 |
He says, "I represent the Boy Scouts |
00:20:31 |
I say, "Regan... |
00:20:34 |
"...we're talking about Bobby." |
00:20:39 |
He looks at me with tears in his eyes. |
00:20:42 |
Tears in his eyes! And he says: |
00:20:46 |
"I'm sorry, Murph. |
00:20:47 |
"I'm just not comfortable |
00:20:51 |
"Them." |
00:20:59 |
He wouldn't cross the line. |
00:21:01 |
He had to, for the boys' own sake. |
00:21:05 |
Didn't want to. He had to. |
00:21:10 |
My God. |
00:21:12 |
I carried his daughter to the doctor, |
00:21:15 |
...when she tipped the barbecue over on her. |
00:21:21 |
I'm running five streets... |
00:21:23 |
...her in my arms, screaming. |
00:21:29 |
Bobby cut his lawn for six years. |
00:22:09 |
I don't know. |
00:22:15 |
I can't offer you applejack, so... |
00:22:26 |
- You got a light? |
00:22:37 |
I know. I'm supposed to hold it in, right? |
00:22:46 |
Jesus. |
00:22:47 |
Nice one, Murph. |
00:22:59 |
You sort of just go with the flow there, |
00:23:09 |
In 15 minutes you're gonna be craving |
00:23:12 |
You know what the doctor told me? |
00:23:15 |
Go easy on fat. Cut down on coffee. |
00:23:18 |
Now they tell me. I'd rather skip |
00:23:21 |
What have you got |
00:23:25 |
- There's always sex. |
00:23:28 |
God, me too. |
00:23:31 |
You ever think about what it must be like to be... |
00:23:35 |
...sixty... |
00:23:38 |
You know... |
00:23:39 |
Eighty years old. |
00:23:41 |
Knowing the last time... |
00:23:45 |
That the last time that you... |
00:23:50 |
Fucked? |
00:23:55 |
Knowing the last time you fucked, |
00:24:00 |
You are never gonna do it again. |
00:24:06 |
- I wonder if you relish it. |
00:24:09 |
I mean, what a... |
00:24:12 |
- Drag? |
00:24:14 |
...drag it would be! I mean, relish it. |
00:24:21 |
I just hope I die a little younger, |
00:24:25 |
I don't want to see my friends die. |
00:24:39 |
- Suppose your wife goes first. |
00:24:42 |
I don't see a point thinking about it. |
00:24:43 |
- I can't control what will or won't happen. |
00:24:48 |
This book says if your partner dies first... |
00:24:50 |
Wait. "Partner"? |
00:24:52 |
Partner. Husband. Wife. |
00:24:57 |
Partner. |
00:25:00 |
- So, if your partner dies first... |
00:25:06 |
No. |
00:25:09 |
Agreement would do. A simple handshake. |
00:25:13 |
Okay. |
00:25:16 |
So... |
00:25:18 |
- Lf your partner dies... |
00:25:23 |
Jesus. |
00:25:24 |
In a few minutes, you'll have the worst... |
00:25:26 |
...coffee jones of your entire life. |
00:25:30 |
I got a hankerin' right now. |
00:25:33 |
- Hankerin'? |
00:25:36 |
Let's stop off at Bagelrama. |
00:25:38 |
On the way on 35. |
00:25:53 |
So, if your... |
00:26:01 |
What? |
00:26:06 |
So, they say... |
00:26:11 |
I forget what I was saying. |
00:26:13 |
Partner! |
00:26:16 |
They say that if your partner dies first... |
00:26:19 |
...sometimes the ethereal body |
00:26:23 |
...because the partner still has issues... |
00:26:27 |
...with the survivor to take care of |
00:26:31 |
To let go of that fear. |
00:26:33 |
Fear of dying. |
00:26:35 |
Like a ghost? |
00:26:38 |
Sort of. |
00:26:41 |
Except more like her energy field. |
00:26:44 |
Her spirit. |
00:26:46 |
Then you can continue |
00:26:50 |
...all your time together... |
00:26:53 |
...in sync... |
00:26:56 |
...as... |
00:26:58 |
...temporal beings. |
00:27:01 |
Temporal beings? |
00:27:02 |
In the body, |
00:27:05 |
You know so much about her energy |
00:27:08 |
The relationship keeps going on. |
00:27:16 |
That's memory. |
00:27:21 |
Right. |
00:27:25 |
How long have you been married? |
00:27:28 |
Forty-five years. |
00:27:33 |
You... |
00:27:36 |
...never fucked around? |
00:27:39 |
No. |
00:27:44 |
Well, twice. |
00:27:47 |
That's fucking around. Once would be. |
00:27:49 |
It was during the war. We all did it. |
00:27:53 |
You were going crazy! |
00:27:55 |
You get married, |
00:27:57 |
Go into service, |
00:28:02 |
We were going nuts. |
00:28:05 |
They were nice girls, though. |
00:28:07 |
A porn star, I could screw. |
00:28:09 |
I don't know about a whore. |
00:28:10 |
You're obviously a man of discerning tastes. |
00:28:17 |
One time... |
00:28:19 |
...when my brother died in Ohio. |
00:28:23 |
My wife is sick. |
00:28:29 |
I felt weak. |
00:28:31 |
I don't know, |
00:28:36 |
My kid brother. |
00:28:38 |
Anyway, I'm driving around |
00:28:42 |
...section there. Dayton. |
00:28:45 |
I don't know what I'm doing. |
00:28:48 |
I knew what I was doing. |
00:28:54 |
I mean... |
00:28:56 |
I never told this to anybody. |
00:29:00 |
So I'm driving. It's a warehouse district. |
00:29:06 |
She asks me if I want a date. |
00:29:07 |
They say that so if you're a cop, |
00:29:11 |
...then they can say: |
00:29:13 |
"All I wanted was a date. |
00:29:16 |
Right. |
00:29:17 |
I don't know what to do. |
00:29:21 |
I look at her. I look at the steering wheel. |
00:29:26 |
What do I say to her? "My brother's dead"? |
00:29:29 |
What's that mean to her? |
00:29:31 |
She says to me: |
00:29:32 |
"I could blow you right here for $15." |
00:29:35 |
"Or we get a room, you do me any way you want. |
00:29:43 |
What'd you do? |
00:29:45 |
For a minute I'm thinking, "Do it." |
00:29:48 |
Only... |
00:29:51 |
...I don't know this woman. |
00:29:53 |
Nothing meaningful's gonna happen. |
00:29:57 |
When you're young, sex is like... |
00:30:00 |
You see it and just... |
00:30:04 |
But a few years go by and... |
00:30:07 |
...there's gotta be something more... |
00:30:09 |
...that's bigger than sex. |
00:30:12 |
Like jokes. |
00:30:14 |
Laugh together. |
00:30:16 |
There's gotta be something out there that's... |
00:30:20 |
...more important than just a physical thing. |
00:30:26 |
Gotta be connected. |
00:30:28 |
Murph. |
00:30:31 |
You're stoned. |
00:30:45 |
Sometimes, I can hear my brother |
00:30:51 |
"You ought to be a poet." |
00:30:56 |
How do you be a poet? |
00:31:00 |
How do you be anything? |
00:31:03 |
I feel like once you figure out |
00:31:07 |
...there's never time to... |
00:31:09 |
Live? |
00:31:11 |
Right. |
00:31:14 |
He said something to me once |
00:31:20 |
This Indian language he knew... |
00:31:22 |
...from this tribe up in New England... |
00:31:26 |
...where we grew up, near lthaca... |
00:31:31 |
...the word that they had for "poetry"... |
00:31:36 |
...was the same word they had for "breath." |
00:31:41 |
So, breathing was like making a poem. |
00:31:57 |
Maybe that's why they didn't have books. |
00:32:01 |
What do you mean? |
00:32:04 |
I mean... |
00:32:06 |
...breathing is the same as poetry... |
00:32:11 |
...and you're walking around and... |
00:32:15 |
...this is all you see. |
00:32:20 |
You don't gotta write anything down. |
00:32:24 |
You're living in a poem. |
00:34:51 |
One time Bobby and I were in church together. |
00:34:56 |
He was 13, 14. |
00:35:01 |
He went to early mass with me |
00:35:07 |
Boy, it was hotter than hell that day. |
00:35:11 |
Shoulder to shoulder in the pews. |
00:35:13 |
Bobby didn't like going to early mass. |
00:35:16 |
Wanted to watch Abbott and Costello, |
00:35:25 |
During the sermon... |
00:35:31 |
Bobby lays his head down on my shoulder. |
00:35:43 |
I let it sit there for about three seconds... |
00:35:47 |
...then I shoved my shoulder up, much to say: |
00:35:50 |
"Okay. Sit up straight. Now." |
00:35:57 |
Maybe he was tired. I don't know. |
00:36:02 |
He wasn't tired. He was a kid. |
00:36:08 |
He laid his head down on his dad's shoulder |
00:36:19 |
In my head I told myself, "This is good for him." |
00:36:22 |
"Too old to be putting his... |
00:36:25 |
"...head on my shoulder." |
00:36:30 |
But... |
00:36:32 |
...that wasn't it. |
00:36:38 |
I was embarrassed. |
00:36:40 |
Everybody can see us. |
00:36:43 |
I was embarrassed, |
00:36:50 |
That's the first thing I thought of... |
00:36:53 |
...when he told me and Elaine he was gay. |
00:36:57 |
He had been for four years, and... |
00:37:00 |
...he'd hid it from us, afraid to tell us. |
00:37:05 |
Four years of his life. |
00:37:08 |
Don't know why it's the first thing I thought of. |
00:37:23 |
Last time my father came around to... |
00:37:27 |
...pay my mother for my sister and me... |
00:37:31 |
...and he couldn't find work, |
00:37:37 |
Then he... |
00:37:40 |
...comes out to me in the alley and... |
00:37:45 |
...he says: |
00:37:48 |
"Time comes, you think about having kids... |
00:37:51 |
"...all's I can say is, don't." |
00:37:57 |
What a start. |
00:38:02 |
Fucking drunk. |
00:38:06 |
Fuckin' asshole loser drunk. |
00:38:45 |
Last time Bobby was in the hospital, what... |
00:38:48 |
...two months ago... |
00:38:53 |
...l'm in there, and... |
00:38:54 |
...Elaine's going out to get some orange juice. |
00:39:02 |
I'm holding his hand, |
00:39:11 |
I was thinking, "What can I say? What can I do?" |
00:39:17 |
I felt empty. |
00:39:21 |
An empty room. |
00:39:25 |
I'm sitting there holding his hand, and I... |
00:39:31 |
That's all that's left, you know? |
00:39:38 |
But it wasn't all that was left. |
00:39:41 |
I had debated mentioning it to him for years. |
00:39:45 |
I thought, |
00:39:49 |
In that moment, I realized... |
00:39:52 |
...that I was afraid... |
00:39:55 |
...to mention it. |
00:39:59 |
Embarrassed. |
00:40:01 |
I looked in his eyes, and his pupils were like... |
00:40:05 |
...black olives. |
00:40:09 |
I whispered to him: |
00:40:12 |
"Bobby, you know I love you, honey. |
00:40:17 |
"Something... |
00:40:20 |
"...l've been needing to say. |
00:40:24 |
"I wanted to for years." |
00:40:30 |
It was everything I could do to get out the word... |
00:40:34 |
..."apologize." |
00:40:38 |
And he said, "It's so okay, Dad." |
00:40:44 |
For years, I avoided mentioning it, and he says: |
00:40:50 |
"It's so okay, Dad." |
00:40:58 |
Regan, how's the ticker? |
00:41:02 |
Fine. |
00:41:04 |
I've been on my feet about five months now. |
00:41:11 |
I had a bypass. |
00:41:15 |
I live down the street from the Murphys. |
00:41:23 |
Danny and Bobby went to the country club |
00:41:28 |
I didn't know that. |
00:41:30 |
They hated it. |
00:41:31 |
Sweating. |
00:41:34 |
Something like $1 an hour. |
00:41:37 |
Third day of work, |
00:41:41 |
Could I come pick Bobby and Danny up? |
00:41:45 |
They were fired. |
00:41:49 |
So I get there and... |
00:41:52 |
...Mrs... |
00:41:55 |
What's it? |
00:41:57 |
Fat one, runs the Colonial Realty. |
00:41:59 |
Dolores Edmondson. |
00:42:02 |
She's there. |
00:42:06 |
In a swimming suit, |
00:42:11 |
That sailor hat. |
00:42:15 |
She caught Bobby and Danny... |
00:42:19 |
...going into the women's dressing room... |
00:42:21 |
...looking up under the... |
00:42:23 |
...floorboards at the naked women, |
00:42:29 |
She sees these two little sets of eyes |
00:42:33 |
...she starts screaming. |
00:42:35 |
I never knew this. |
00:42:40 |
So I'm driving them home. They're terrified. |
00:42:45 |
In the back, neither one of them's saying a word. |
00:42:49 |
Finally, Danny says under his breath: |
00:42:54 |
"What a gyp!" |
00:42:57 |
And Bobby goes, "Yeah. |
00:43:00 |
"Three whole day's work, |
00:43:09 |
Maybe that's what turned Bobby off it. |
00:43:17 |
Do you think? |
00:43:23 |
Maybe it is. Oh, God! |
00:43:29 |
I'm sorry about that thing with the Cub Scouts. |
00:43:34 |
Bobby would have been a great scout leader. |
00:43:40 |
I should have stood up to them, said: |
00:43:42 |
"Look, this is Bobby Murphy, for God's sake." |
00:43:46 |
I'm so sorry, Murph. |
00:43:49 |
Thanks for coming, Regan. |
00:43:52 |
It's not up to me, you know? |
00:43:54 |
It's okay. |
00:43:59 |
We gotta let these things go. |
00:44:17 |
Snow tomorrow. |
00:44:19 |
Maybe. |
00:44:41 |
No regrets. |
00:44:55 |
Don't worry about anything. |
00:45:02 |
That kid's putting dirty spark plugs |
00:45:20 |
You might wanna... |
00:45:23 |
...sandpaper those plugs |
00:45:26 |
Save you time. |
00:47:15 |
The snow comes and it comes. |
00:47:21 |
You know they got acid snow now, like acid rain? |
00:47:25 |
- I told you that. |
00:47:29 |
You know the rot at the bottom of the wise men, |
00:47:32 |
I think that's acid snow. |
00:47:36 |
Either that or the wise men got athlete's foot. |
00:47:44 |
We could've gotten to it today if it hadn't snowed. |
00:47:47 |
You take that fiberglass tape |
00:47:53 |
- But you leave a hole in the bottom. |
00:47:56 |
- Not an exact bottom. |
00:47:58 |
Three inches from the bottom, |
00:48:05 |
What am I worrying about? |
00:48:06 |
Next year, they'll probably buy new ones. |
00:48:11 |
You know, they got 'em at Wal-Mart now. |
00:48:15 |
- But they're smaller. |
00:48:18 |
There's something about the eyes. |
00:48:21 |
- Crossed or something. |
00:48:27 |
- But do it anyway, tomorrow. |
00:48:30 |
Because next year, I mean... |
00:48:33 |
...you never know. |
00:48:35 |
I will. I'll do it. |
00:48:39 |
Wal-Mart. |
00:48:42 |
Good thing, bad thing? |
00:48:50 |
So... |
00:48:56 |
You all right? |
00:48:59 |
Yeah. |
00:49:05 |
Just thoughts. |
00:49:07 |
Last day sort of thoughts? |
00:49:10 |
Yeah. |
00:49:17 |
It's time. What's a job? |
00:49:27 |
You know... |
00:49:28 |
...for years, you think... |
00:49:31 |
...when I retire, finally I'll... |
00:49:34 |
Thoughts. |
00:49:36 |
A lot of time. |
00:49:50 |
What? |
00:49:52 |
What do you mean? |
00:49:55 |
- What is it? |
00:49:58 |
- You okay? |
00:50:01 |
Okay. |
00:50:04 |
Do I look okay? |
00:50:06 |
- Yeah. What are you talking about? |
00:50:10 |
You haven't noticed me repeating things, or... |
00:50:14 |
...not being able to remember, forget... |
00:50:17 |
- Talking. |
00:50:22 |
I just don't want to go off the deep end, that's all. |
00:50:29 |
- What do you mean, "go off the deep end"? |
00:50:35 |
Or croak. |
00:50:37 |
Who's gonna take care of Elaine? |
00:50:41 |
For years, you work towards this thing |
00:50:47 |
After a while, you begin to wonder. |
00:50:49 |
Is it certain, |
00:50:52 |
Is it like... |
00:50:55 |
...a mirage? |
00:50:59 |
Like the only thing you can know for sure |
00:51:03 |
...what you already did. |
00:51:04 |
But that's already behind you. |
00:51:08 |
I don't know. |
00:51:12 |
Besides, you're not gonna croak. |
00:51:15 |
You're a young guy. |
00:51:24 |
What am I gonna do with my life? |
00:51:27 |
You already done it! |
00:51:31 |
You still got your future to think about. |
00:51:37 |
- Future is an open book? |
00:51:43 |
It may be an open book. |
00:51:47 |
That's not true. |
00:51:50 |
- I don't know. |
00:51:54 |
I mean, it's not like it's one open book. |
00:51:57 |
A better way to think about it is, |
00:52:01 |
That way it doesn't matter how old you are, |
00:52:06 |
You don't know when it's gonna end. Nobody... |
00:52:09 |
- Because that's when you die? |
00:52:11 |
Who knows when that is, right? |
00:52:16 |
You could die tomorrow, |
00:52:19 |
"Shit, I've got all these pages left." |
00:52:26 |
You're right. |
00:52:30 |
I was winging it, but... |
00:52:32 |
...it sounded good to me, especially the last part. |
00:52:35 |
- My life, you're winging it? |
00:52:40 |
You get it all from them books, don't you? |
00:52:45 |
- Finding My Father. |
00:52:49 |
- How'd you get so smart all of a sudden? |
00:52:52 |
- You're just a kid. |
00:53:02 |
Time goes by, it seems like a little time. |
00:53:07 |
You turn around, it was a big time. |
00:53:13 |
Just like the movies. |
00:53:16 |
What? |
00:53:17 |
I was just thinking. |
00:53:19 |
Everything goes by so much faster in the movies. |
00:53:22 |
- Shit. |
00:53:27 |
- Get in the car! |
00:53:30 |
- Oh, my God. |
00:53:33 |
- Get in the car! |
00:53:36 |
- What's wrong with your mom? |
00:53:38 |
The car smells, and she screamed, |
00:53:41 |
Ma'am! |
00:53:45 |
- Did you have an accident? |
00:53:47 |
Mommy. Men are here. |
00:53:49 |
Get in the car! |
00:53:52 |
- What's your name? |
00:53:55 |
Is your mother hurt, Hope? |
00:53:58 |
I don't think so. |
00:54:00 |
Let's get you in the car. |
00:54:01 |
- You gotta keep warm. |
00:54:05 |
We have to keep you warm. |
00:54:07 |
Oh, my God, please! |
00:54:10 |
Ma'am? |
00:54:11 |
Go away. You don't know me. |
00:54:14 |
- I deserve to die! |
00:54:18 |
Yes, I do. My beautiful leather coat. |
00:54:24 |
It looks fine to me. |
00:54:26 |
It isn't! |
00:54:28 |
It's burned, look! |
00:54:30 |
Look at it! |
00:54:38 |
That's nothing. A little patch, you can cover... |
00:54:40 |
- Nothing? |
00:54:43 |
This is God's punishment for smoking. |
00:54:45 |
My husband bought me this coat, |
00:54:48 |
My whole life, I wanted a leather coat. Look at it! |
00:54:54 |
- I think your husband will understand. |
00:54:58 |
This is all so fucked. You don't get it? |
00:55:02 |
- Give me the light. |
00:55:06 |
No, darling. |
00:55:09 |
Mom's gonna be all right. |
00:55:11 |
It's okay. Talk to me. Come on. |
00:55:30 |
Wait! |
00:55:37 |
Shit! |
00:55:38 |
Get off me! |
00:55:42 |
Let me die! |
00:55:51 |
- Let me go. |
00:55:53 |
- Let me die. |
00:55:56 |
- God's punishing me. |
00:56:02 |
- Yes, he is. |
00:56:09 |
Wait! |
00:56:11 |
Don't go up the hill! |
00:56:15 |
What about Hope? |
00:56:18 |
Hope, my angel. |
00:56:23 |
- My angel. |
00:56:25 |
She's your angel. God sent her. You know that! |
00:56:30 |
Why would God send me a child |
00:56:34 |
- He looks right through me. |
00:56:38 |
She'd do anything for you. |
00:56:40 |
What's a jacket? |
00:56:42 |
You can't abandon her over a jacket. |
00:56:45 |
Her blaming herself her whole life, |
00:56:54 |
Stay there, okay? |
00:57:12 |
Shit. |
00:57:27 |
My husband hits me. |
00:57:31 |
Why does God let him do it? |
00:57:35 |
That's a sign. Like the angel. Maybe it's... |
00:57:38 |
It's a sign it's time to leave him. |
00:57:41 |
You know? |
00:57:43 |
He doesn't deserve you. God knows that. |
00:57:46 |
Leave your husband. |
00:57:48 |
Not Hope. |
00:57:49 |
Not your angel. |
00:57:56 |
How do you know all this? |
00:58:04 |
You Catholic? |
00:58:07 |
No. |
00:58:11 |
Where are you getting all this from? |
00:58:14 |
I don't know. |
00:58:22 |
Are you cold? |
00:58:26 |
So cold. |
00:58:29 |
I know. Here, take my coat. |
00:58:37 |
People... |
00:58:41 |
They look at you like you're some piece of shit. |
00:58:46 |
I know. |
00:58:49 |
Like you don't matter. |
00:58:52 |
I know. |
00:58:54 |
Like you don't belong here. |
00:58:57 |
I know. |
00:59:01 |
Like you're nothing. |
00:59:05 |
You're not nothing. |
00:59:39 |
I got cake. |
00:59:41 |
Here's Murph. I'll see you guys later. |
01:00:13 |
- Nothing like going out with a bang, huh? |
01:00:19 |
What was the problem? |
01:00:23 |
Her husband's a fucking jerk. |
01:00:25 |
A fucking jerk? |
01:00:31 |
Goodbye, fair workplace. |
01:00:43 |
Don't, okay? |
01:00:48 |
I gotta. |
01:00:52 |
Okay, then. |
01:00:57 |
- You're a great guy. |
01:01:03 |
You mean a lot to me, you know. |
01:01:06 |
Fuck you. |
01:01:13 |
You know what I mean. |
01:01:16 |
I know. |
01:01:21 |
I got you something. |
01:01:23 |
Sort of a retirement thing. |
01:01:33 |
What is it? |
01:01:36 |
I got it in one of those... |
01:01:40 |
...little bead shops. |
01:01:42 |
They have these little... |
01:01:44 |
...pot signs and crystals and peace signs. |
01:01:48 |
- It's a hand? |
01:01:50 |
It's called the "Hand of Fatima." |
01:01:54 |
What's it stand for? |
01:01:58 |
- I don't know. |
01:02:00 |
I just liked the way it looked, |
01:02:04 |
...shaking hands. |
01:02:08 |
Kind of... |
01:02:10 |
You gave me a helping hand. |
01:02:50 |
Thanks. |
01:02:53 |
No. |
01:02:54 |
Thank you. |
01:03:00 |
- Okay. |
01:03:12 |
Surprise! |
01:03:17 |
- Oh, come on. |
