Ijust been so busy working, I've had no chance to shave.
You were busy today? Yeah.
Just doing some collating.
That's what i'm doing now.
Collating.
Mm-Hmm.
You didn't pick up the mail.
I had no time just running around.
'Cause you were busy.
Very busy.
I understand.
What'd i miss? Anything important? Bills, solicitations Ah, something for murray.
Look at all this.
What's that? This was sent to me at the explorer channel.
I guess they forwarded it.
This stuff's a month old.
We were invited to a screening of The adventures of flounder boy.
We missed it.
"The silver sprocket awards.
" Really? Maybe you were nominated.
For what? They butchered everything i did.
They totally destroyed weed.
You were nominated for weed! Get out of here! See? Vindication.
I don't care.
Care! When is it? What's the difference? I'm not going.
It's tomorrow.
Do you believe they waited this long To send this to me? I'm not going to go to this.
You have to go.
So i can wear a tuxedo? You're very handsome in a tuxedo.
Sit with the people who fired me? Yes.
That's exactly why you should go.
This will give you a chance To display your class, your dignity, your panache.
Hey, i don't display my panache to anybody but you.
That's private.
You have lovely panache.
Thank you.
What if i go and lose? Then, with as much grace and equanimity as you can muster, You give 'em the finger and run away.
I'm not going.
The other thing is the contacts, the networking.
I bet you'd get a dozen job offers.
I don't want to go and sit with those people.
But i'll be there right next to you.
'Cause you my woman.
Yes.
You're my wife.
Yes.
My soul mate.

I'm very competitive.
I like winning.
I hate losing.
But cheating in gin I wasn't cheating.
I wasn't cheating.
That's why i wanted to go with paul tonight.
I gave him this speech about grace and dignity.
Truth is, i wanted him to win.

Gin.
And i loved the film with the lion and the jackal, And the jackal and the lion.
Lion, jackal.
Jackal, lion.
Back and forth.
Back and forth.
And who wins and who eats And all this time i'm thinking, "Why can't they all just get along?" What sort of films do you make? I'm not a filmmaker.
Really? No.
I'm a doctor, a gynecologist.
We're thinking of starting a medical channel.
Perhaps you'd give us a call, share some thoughts.
Oh, that's great.
[Choking.]
You all right? I'll be right back.
Can i have a beer so big it hurts to lift it? Well, who knows better than you do? I hate these things.

Go get them.
This is crazy.
We'll never make it.
The train will be here any minute.
So what? We get up there, We shake three hands, Show our faces for eight seconds, And get back on the train.
What difference does it make? You know it makes a difference.
I want to go home.
You can't! What about brockwell? Brockwell? What about him? He's somewhere listening to old man river.
[Train whistle blows.]
See? That's our train.
No, it's not.
That's the train back to the city.
No, it's coming from that way.
No, it's coming from that way.
I'll tell you what.
No.
If that's the new york train, we're on it.
That's not an option.
It's totally fair.
If that's the city train, we get on it.
I cannot do that.
I have to, and so should you.
Have a life! I do, such as it is.
It's that way.
Well, mine is that way.
[Pager beeps.]
Ooh.
That's me.
I'll be right back.
Where are you going? To make a call.
You're leaving me with them? You can survive without me for two minutes.
Excuse me.
I've got an emergency c-Section.
I'm going with you.
You'd rather watch me perform a c-Section Than stay and win an award? Yes.
Know what? What? That is sick.
I want to go.
You can't.
I have i have to.
You cannot come with me.
That's final, paul.
Now march in there.
Sit yourself at the table like a young man.

I'll see you later.
Good luck.

I guess so.
You're not going to go back inside? No.
The truth is i don't care.
I really don't.
I don't care about any of this.
It's stupid.
You know, it's ridiculous.
The whole thing is ridiculous.
Awards.
You know, i mean, awards.
They're insulting and stupid.
And the winner is weed, paul buchman, director.
Whoo! Yeah! All right, this isthis feels really, really good.
Uh, the explorer channel.
This is for us, you know.
I couldn't have done it without the explorer channel.

You still don't care? Well, i, boy as bourgeois as it sounds, I must tell you, it feels very good to win.
You didn't know that? No.
I didn't.
I've never won anything, ever.
No.
Losing's bad.
Winning's good.
Yeah.
There's no comparison.
Well, enjoy it.
I have to go.

It's that time.
So, wait, so a person like you, if they were leaving, They would go where? Home? Probably.
Why? No why.
Nono.
I was just thinking And no implication here, but i'm leaving, So do you want to split a cab? Actually, i thought i'd take a walk.
Oh, o.

Yeah, i should.
I just don't particularly want to.
Well? What then? We can't.
