AHH, THERE YOU GO.
I'LL BE BACK AS SOON AS I CAN.
I'LL BE BACK AS SOON AS I CAN.
YOU'RE GONNA BE JUST FINE.
HA, ISN'T THAT FUNNY?
I WAS JUST THINKING TODAY
THAT IF THIS WERE JUS A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO,
I WOULD HAVE BEEN
REALLY WORRIED
TO LEAVE YOU ALONE
FOR DAYS AT A TIME.
DID YOU KNOW THAT?
I WAS ALWAYS SO AFRAID THA YOU'D GET YOURSELF INTO TROUBLE.
I MEAN, YOU KNOW HOW YOU WERE.
IT WAS HARD TO RELAX.
HERE YOU GO, SWEETIE. OK.
THERE'S A SECURITY IN FEELING
THAT THE WORST HAS HAPPENED.
MAKES ME FEEL LIKE NOBODY
WOULD HURT US.
YOU KNOW, I HAVE THIS IMAGE
SOMETIMES
THAT SOMEONE BREAKS IN
AND THEY TRY TO ROB US,
AND THEY SEE YOUR LIGHT ON
UNDER YOUR DOOR, AND I SAY
DON'T GO IN THERE, THERE'S
NOTHING FOR YOU IN THERE,
BUT THEY DON'T LISTEN
AND THEY COME IN,
AND THEY SEE YOU LYING HERE,
AND THEY LEAVE.
THEY JUST DROP THEIR BAGS
AND WALK OUT THE DOOR.
THEY DON'T EVEN WAN OUR THINGS.
THEY DON'T WANT ANYTHING
THAT WE'VE TOUCHED,
BECAUSE, I MEAN,
YOU KNOW HOW PEOPLE ARE.
THEY THINK THAT MISFORTUNE
IS CONTAGIOUS.
THEY THINK THAT MISFORTUNE
IS CONTAGIOUS.
[SIGHS] MAYBE I SHOULDN'T HAVE
TOLD YOU ALL THAT.
BUT, YOU KNOW, I DON'T THINK

RIGHT OR WRONG.
WE'RE RULED BY CHAOS.
THAT WOULD MAKE
MORE SENSE.
THAT THERE ARE NO REWARDS,
NO PUNISHMENTS.
LIFE ISN'T A SERIES
OF RESULTS
OF THINGS DONE
RIGHT OR WRONG.
IT'S ALL JUST RANDOM.
THOSE ARE THE RULES.
THERE ARE NO RULES.
OF COURSE
THERE'S RULES.
IF THERE WEREN'T,
NONE OF US
COULD WIN.
WHO'D PLAY IF
THEY COULDN'T WIN?
HELLO?
LOOK WHERE YOU'RE A RIGHT NOW.
LOOK WHERE YOU'RE A RIGHT NOW.
ESTHER...
ARE YOU GONNA PLAY?
ARE YOU GONNA PLAY?
I SPY...
WITH MY LITTLE EYE...
[THINKING]
A LIE.
[THINKING]
A LIE.
HOW'S THAT SHIRT FIT? OK?
YES.
I THOUGHT IT WOULD.
YOU PUKED ALL OVER YOURS,
AND I FIGURED
YOU WOULDN'T...
WANT TO SLEEP IN IT.
WANT TO SLEEP IN IT.
I'LL MAKE YOU
A BIG BREAKFAST.
I'LL MAKE YOU
A BIG BREAKFAST.
Woman: YOU KNOW
WHAT WE NEED?
WE NEED ONE OF THOSE
MASSAGE GUYS
TO GIVE US MASSAGES
ON OUR NECKS.
OR SOMEONE TO SHAMPOO
OUR HAIR.
OR SOMEONE TO SHAMPOO
OUR HAIR.
DON'T YOU PEOPLE PROVIDE
EXTENSION CORDS?
NOT THAT I KNOW OF.
NOT THAT YOU KNOW OF.
NOT THAT YOU KNOW OF.
Jim:
THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
THEY CAN'T EVEN GET ME
AN EXTENSION CORD.
JIM, I'M FINE.
YOU ARE NOW,
BUT BELIEVE ME,
THIS IS GONNA HELP,
BECAUSE WHEN YOUR BACK
SEIZES UP, IT'S ALL OVER.
WELL, THEN IT'S OVER.
DON'T TALK LIKE THAT.
THE ONLY ADVANTAGE
YOU HAVE IS UP HERE.
FUCK THIS.
THIS IS INSANE.
FUCK THIS.
THIS IS INSANE.
IF I WANT A CAR,
I'LL BUY ONE.
LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE.
SEE THAT?
WHOO! YEAH!
YOU KNOW WHAT I LOVE
ABOUT THIS, ESTHER?
NO.
THERE'S A GOAL.
YOUR HANDS ARE ON IT.
THE RULES ARE CLEAR.
YOU PUT IN THE WORK,
AND IT'S YOURS.
EFFORT EQUALS REWARD.
LIFE COULD LEARN A LOT OF
LESSONS FROM THIS GAME.
LIFE COULD LEARN A LOT OF
LESSONS FROM THIS GAME.
Emily: MOM, DID DADDY

I WANT TO CALL

WELL, YOU CAN'T.
I DON'T HAVE A PHONE.
ISN'T THA ILLEGAL?
WHAT ARE YOU,
MISTER LAW AND ORDER?
JUST BECAUSE EVERYBODY'S GO A PHONE, FAX, COMPUTER,

IT'S ILLEGAL NOT TO.
IT DOESN'T MEAN

[ANSWERING MACHINE BEEP

BRUCE, IT'S ME.
MAKE SURE SAM

I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW
YOU ARE REALLY MESSING UP

I DON'T WANT TO DEPRIVE

YOU'RE GETTING A LITTLE OLD
FOR THAT, DON'T YOU THINK?
WHY DO YOU ALWAYS

WHY DO YOU ALWAYS
SAY THAT?
BECAUSE YOU'RE

[BEATBOXING]
[BEATBOXING]
COME ON.
COME ON.
IT'S PRETTY GOOD, HUH?
I BET YOU'VE NEVER HAD
FISH THIS FRESH BEFORE.
I BET YOU'VE NEVER HAD
FISH THIS FRESH BEFORE.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?
YOU'RE A KID.
YOU SHOULD BE
FULL OF IDEAS.
BUT YOU NEVER EVEN TALK.
THERE'S SOMETHING
WRONG WITH YOUR SISTER.
IT'S PROBABLY GENETIC.
YOU SHOULDN'T SAY
STUFF LIKE THAT.
IT DOESN'T SEEM THAT FAR
FROM THE TRUTH
OR ANYTHING.
MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING
WRONG WITH YOU.
MAYBE THAT'S WHY YOUR
MOM STUCK YOU WITH ME.
SHE DIDN'T STICK ME
WITH YOU.
THEN WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE, HUH?
I'M SERIOUS, THOUGH.
HAS ANYONE
EVER TESTED YOU?
SHUT UP.
HEY, DON'T BE
AFRAID OF ME.
YOU SHOULD BE AFRAID
OF YOURSELF!
YOU'RE THE ONE
WITH THE PROBLEM!
SEE THAT?
YOU GOT THINGS TO SAY.
YOU'RE GOING TO GET LOST.
YOU'RE GOING TO GET LOST.
[HORN BLOWS]

OH, YEAH.
OK.
OK. YEAH. OK, OK.

Bill: WELL, IT'S

LET'S GE YOU SITUATED.

OK.
[SIGHS AND GROANS]
[SIGHS AND GROANS]
DON'T GO.
I WANT TO TELL YOU SOMETHING,
SO DON'T GO.
OK? STAY SO
I CAN TELL YOU.
HEY, I'M HERE.
HEY, I'M HERE.
LAST YEAR, WHEN PAUL
GOT INTO HIS ACCIDENT,
I REMEMBER THE DOCTORS.
THEY CAME TO US
AND THEY SAID
THAT THEY BELIEVE PAUL WOULDN' LIVE UNTIL THE MORNING.
"YOU SHOULD PREPARE
YOURSELVES."
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAID.
AND I--
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAID.
AND I--
I MEAN, HOW DO YOU
DO THAT?
PREPARE?
THERE WAS A CHAPEL
IN THE HOSPITAL,
AND I WENT THERE
AND I STAYED THERE
FOR 4 DAYS.
AND I PRAYED.
I HAVE NEVER PRAYED
LIKE THAT IN MY LIFE.
NOT FOR ANYONE.
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW
IF I BELIEVED IN GOD.
I JUST KNEW SOMEONE
HAD TO HELP ME.
BUT THIS IS WHA I WANT TO TELL YOU.
IF YOU ARE EVER, EVER
IN A PRAYING SITUATION WITH HIM,
BE SPECIFIC,
INCLUDE CERTAIN CLAUSES.
IT'S NOT ENOUGH TO ASSUME
THAT IF A PERSON LIVES,
THEY'LL BE OK.
BECAUSE GOD HAS
A WICKED SENSE OF HUMOR.
AND EVEN THOUGH
HE KNOWS YOU MEAN MORE,
HE'LL ONLY GIVE YOU
EXACTLY WHAT YOU ASK FOR.
HE'LL ONLY GIVE YOU
EXACTLY WHAT YOU ASK FOR.

TO JCPENNEY.
Doll: JAKE,

YEAH, YEAH, IT IS.
I CAN'T TELL.
Jim:

Jake, whispering:
Tani.
JAKE, WHY WERE YOU
TRYING TO KILL ME?
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
THE STRANGLING

SHE WAS REALLY HURTING YOU,
AND I HAD TO MAKE HER STOP.
YEAH, BUT YOU COULD
HAVE OFFERED HER
A SLICE OF BACON...
A PIECE OF PANCAKE
AND SOME WAFFLE
OR SOMETHING.
I WASN'T THINKING STRAIGHT.
AND SHE WAS REALLY
CHOMPING AWAY THERE.
INDEED, BUT YOU'RE SURE
IT'S NOT 'CAUSE YOU WERE
DOING IT ALL NIGHT LONG
AT YOUR SO-CALLED
SLEEPOVER?
NOT EVEN CLOSE.
SO YOU SQUASHED EMILY'S
FOOT JUST FOR ME?
YEAH.
OH, YOU'RE THE BES BOYFRIEND EVER!

PRETTY SERIOUS DECISIONS.

THAT WE'RE GONNA
GET MARRIED.

YOUR SECOND MOM.
I AM...
I AM SO EXCITED
ABOUT THAT, GIRLS.

BUT THEN THEY DON'T HAVE
THE STERILIZATION SETTING.
AND YOU KNOW
WHAT THAT MEANS.
IF YOU OR SOMEONE
IN YOUR FAMILY GETS SICK,
THEN YOU ALL GET SICK.

DIET DRINKS IN MY ROOM,

JULIE. HI.

COME ON.
FINE.
IF YOU COULD JUST GE YOUR HOTSHOT LAWYER
TO GET HIS FINGER OUT,
WE COULD HAVE
THE COURT DECIDE
EXACTLY WHAT'S
MY RESPONSIBILITY
AND WHAT ISN'T.
THEY HAD A BOMB THREAT.
A BOMB THREAT.
THAT'S A NEW ONE.
I'VE GOTTA
HAND YOU THAT.
OK, THAT'S IT.
OH, MY GOD.
HE'S COMING OVER HERE.
RAYANNE, HONEY...
DADDY'S GOT TO GO.
Catherine: THIS MUST BE
HARD FOR YOU.
SWEETIE?
A LITTLE.
A LITTLE.
LOOK, I REALLY
DON'T WANT TO
ADD ANY FUEL
TO THE FIRE, HERE.
AND THAT'S WHY I WAS WAITING
FOR BRUCE TO LEAVE, BUT...
WE WERE JUST WONDERING
WHEN IT WOULD BE ALL RIGH TO HAVE SOME MOVERS COME
AND TAKE A COUPLE OF
THE BIGGER THINGS.
[YELLING]
Annette: BRUCE!
YOU CAN'T DO THAT TO HER!
OK, SAM, I THINK
I CAN HANDLE IT.
OK? GET OFF
THE PHONE ALREADY.
JUST TO TAKE A COUPLE
OF THE BIGGER PIECES,
LIKE THE ARMOIRE. UH...

BRUCE'S GREAT-GRANDFATHER.
CATHERINE, PLEASE.
[YELLING]

BYE.
DON'T BE OU TOO LATE.
CAN I SPEAK
TO YOU?
CAN I SPEAK
TO YOU?
ARE YOU DOING THIS
ON PURPOSE?
WHAT?
TURNING MY CHILDREN
AGAINST ME.
WHAT DID YOU
EXPECT, BRUCE?
YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THEM
IN 4 MONTHS.
SEE? THAT'S EXACTLY
WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT.
THAT'S THE KIND OF THING
YOU'RE SAYING TO THEM, ISN'T IT?
YOU KNOW, ANNETTE....
YOU THINK YOU'RE NO DOING ANYTHING,
BUT YOU'RE MAKING THEM
COMPLETELY AWARE OF TIME.
WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?
YOU KNOW PERFECTLY WELL
WHAT I MEAN.
KIDS DON'T HAVE
ANY SENSE OF TIME.
IT'S ONLY ADULTS THAT GIVE THEM
ANY KIND OF CONCEPT OF IT.
SO YOU'RE PROPOSING...
THAT ALTHOUGH
YOU HAVEN'T SEEN...
OR SPOKEN TO YOUR
CHILDREN IN 4 MONTHS...
THEY WOULDN' BE AWARE OF THA WERE IT NOT FOR ME
REMINDING THEM OF IT?

OF TWISTING THINGS AROUND
TO MAKE THEM SEEM
RIDICULOUS.
TO MAKE THEM SEEM
RIDICULOUS.
I WANT SAM TO COME TO MEXICO

TOMORROW.
NO.
SHE CAN SWIM,
SHE CAN PLAY.
THEY GOT A WHOLE KIDS'
PROGRAM DOWN THERE.
YOU SAID YOURSELF
THAT SHE WAS MAD
THAT SHE COULDN' GET TO GO AWAY.
WHY AREN'T YOU ASKING
FOR RAYANNE, BRUCE?
YOU KNOW SHE'S
GOT SCHOOL NOW.
SCHOOL YOU DON' WANT TO PAY FOR,
BUT YOU WANT TO USE
AS AN EXCUSE.

PLEASE?
ANNETTE, SHE DOESN' EVEN LIKE ME.
ANNETTE, SHE DOESN' EVEN LIKE ME.

Bruce, on answering machine:

I'VE HAD IT WITH YOU.
YOU KNOW...
YOU'VE ESCALATED THIS SITUATION
TO THE PLACE IT'S AT.
AND IF YOU LEAVE ME
WITH NO OTHER RECOURSE
BUT TO TAKE MY CHILDREN
OUT OF YOUR SICK LITTLE WORLD,
THEN SO BE IT.
BUT I WANT YOU TO KNOW
EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENS
FROM HERE ON OU IS A DIRECT RESUL OF YOUR ACTIONS
AND NOT MINE.
[HANGS UP]

Esther, thinking:
HOW DID I GET HERE?
SOMEWHERE ALONG THE WAY,
THINGS HAVE GOTTEN
OUT OF HAND.
I DON'T KNOW HOW.
I TRIED TO DO THINGS
RIGHT, BUT...
MAYBE THAT'S
THE PROBLEM.
MAYBE THERE IS NO
RIGHT OR WRONG.
WE'RE RULED BY CHAOS.
THAT WOULD MAKE
MORE SENSE.
THAT THERE ARE NO REWARDS,
NO PUNISHMENTS.
LIFE ISN'T A SERIES
OF RESULTS
OF THINGS DONE
RIGHT OR WRONG.
IT'S ALL JUST RANDOM.
THOSE ARE THE RULES.
THERE ARE NO RULES.
OF COURSE
THERE'S RULES.
IF THERE WEREN'T,
NONE OF US
COULD WIN.
WHO'D PLAY IF
THEY COULDN'T WIN?
HELLO?
LOOK WHERE YOU'RE A RIGHT NOW.
LOOK WHERE YOU'RE A RIGHT NOW.
ESTHER...
ARE YOU GONNA PLAY?
ARE YOU GONNA PLAY?
I SPY...
WITH MY LITTLE EYE...
[THINKING]
A LIE.

A LIE.
HOW'S THAT SHIRT FIT? OK?

YOU PUKED ALL OVER YOURS,

WANT TO SLEEP IN IT.

I'LL MAKE YOU
A BIG BREAKFAST.
I'LL MAKE YOU

WE NEED ONE OF THOSE
MASSAGE GUYS
TO GIVE US MASSAGES
ON OUR NECKS.
OR SOMEONE TO SHAMPOO
OUR HAIR.
OR SOMEONE TO SHAMPOO
OUR HAIR.
DON'T YOU PEOPLE PROVIDE
EXTENSION CORDS?
NOT THAT I KNOW OF.
NOT THAT YOU KNOW OF.
NOT THAT YOU KNOW OF.
Jim:
THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
THEY CAN'T EVEN GET ME
AN EXTENSION CORD.
JIM, I'M FINE.
YOU ARE NOW,
BUT BELIEVE ME,
THIS IS GONNA HELP,
BECAUSE WHEN YOUR BACK
SEIZES UP, IT'S ALL OVER.
WELL, THEN IT'S OVER.
DON'T TALK LIKE THAT.
THE ONLY ADVANTAGE
YOU HAVE IS UP HERE.
FUCK THIS.
THIS IS INSANE.
FUCK THIS.
THIS IS INSANE.
IF I WANT A CAR,
I'LL BUY ONE.
LIKE NORMAL PEOPLE.
SEE THAT?
WHOO! YEAH!
YOU KNOW WHAT I LOVE
ABOUT THIS, ESTHER?
NO.
THERE'S A GOAL.
YOUR HANDS ARE ON IT.
THE RULES ARE CLEAR.
YOU PUT IN THE WORK,
AND IT'S YOURS.
EFFORT EQUALS REWARD.
LIFE COULD LEARN A LOT OF
LESSONS FROM THIS GAME.
LIFE COULD LEARN A LOT OF
LESSONS FROM THIS GAME.
Emily: MOM, DID DADDY

I'M NOT TAKING ANY MORE
OF EMILY'S CRAP. YOU'RE
COMING TO LIVE WITH ME.
REALLY, JAKE?
I DON'T HAVE TO LIVE
WITH EMILY ANYMORE?
NO MORE.
I HAVE TO START PACKING.
OH, YOU'RE THE BES BOYFRIEND EVER.
YOU'RE NUMBER--OOH!

I BET YOU'VE NEVER HAD
FISH THIS FRESH BEFORE.
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?
YOU'RE A KID.
YOU SHOULD BE
FULL OF IDEAS.
BUT YOU NEVER EVEN TALK.
THERE'S SOMETHING
WRONG WITH YOUR SISTER.
IT'S PROBABLY GENETIC.
YOU SHOULDN'T SAY
STUFF LIKE THAT.
IT DOESN'T SEEM THAT FAR
FROM THE TRUTH
OR ANYTHING.
MAYBE THERE'S SOMETHING
WRONG WITH YOU.
MAYBE THAT'S WHY YOUR
MOM STUCK YOU WITH ME.
SHE DIDN'T STICK ME
WITH YOU.
THEN WHAT ARE YOU

I'M SERIOUS, THOUGH.

HEY, I'M HERE.
HEY, I'M HERE.
LAST YEAR, WHEN PAUL
GOT INTO HIS ACCIDENT,
I REMEMBER THE DOCTORS.
THEY CAME TO US
AND THEY SAID
THAT THEY BELIEVE PAUL WOULDN' LIVE UNTIL THE MORNING.
"YOU SHOULD PREPARE
YOURSELVES."
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAID.
AND I--
THAT'S WHAT THEY SAID.
AND I--
I MEAN, HOW DO YOU
DO THAT?
PREPARE?
THERE WAS A CHAPEL
IN THE HOSPITAL,
AND I WENT THERE
AND I STAYED THERE
FOR 4 DAYS.
AND I PRAYED.
I HAVE NEVER PRAYED
LIKE THAT IN MY LIFE.
NOT FOR ANYONE.
I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW
IF I BELIEVED IN GOD.
I JUST KNEW SOMEONE
HAD TO HELP ME.
BUT THIS IS WHA I WANT TO TELL YOU.
IF YOU ARE EVER, EVER
IN A PRAYING SITUATION WITH HIM,
BE SPECIFIC,
INCLUDE CERTAIN CLAUSES.
IT'S NOT ENOUGH TO ASSUME
THAT IF A PERSON LIVES,
THEY'LL BE OK.
BECAUSE GOD HAS
A WICKED SENSE OF HUMOR.
AND EVEN THOUGH
HE KNOWS YOU MEAN MORE,
HE'LL ONLY GIVE YOU
EXACTLY WHAT YOU ASK FOR.
HE'LL ONLY GIVE YOU
EXACTLY WHAT YOU ASK FOR.
YOU HAVE SOME TIME.

SHE'S GETTING US MARGARITAS.
WE COULD TALK ALL NIGHT,
PRETENDING WE'RE GETTING

WHEN WE BOTH KNOW WHA WE WOULD END UP DOING
IN THE END ANYWAY.
IN THE END ANYWAY.
I THINK I COULD GIVE YOU
SOMETHING THAT YOU NEED
AND I THINK

SOMETHING THAT I NEED.
THAT'S A WIN, WIN
