Once again no rain,
but mostly high clouds.
Since you got so much
information, can you tell us
why it smells like skunk
outside the studio
- in Hollywood here?
- It does?
Sam, do you know
why that is?
Okay. Okay, now!
Happy birthday!
Well, thank you.
Thank you very much.
- Happy birthday.
- Thank you.
Are you excited to see
all your friends at daycare?
Yeah.
Did you notice anything
in the bathroom?
Aside from a few
new wrinkles, no.
It was right by the toilet.
Are you pregnant?
Yes.
That's great!
Congratulations!
Congratulations?
To whom?
- What am I supposed to say?
- Nothing.
- To you, to all of us!
- Whatever comes up in your head.
- Brenda, what's the matter?
- No, nothing.
Thank you for your
hearty congratulations.
- Come on, honey.
- Are you sure it's positive?
There you go, honey bun.
Maya's gonna be late.
Brenda, I'm happy, l...
Come on, grab hold.
Come on, baby.
- Brenda...
- See you, I gotta get ready for work.
I'm happy,
just tell me again.
***!
Have you seen my
Ski Iraq shirt anywhere?
- You had that on last night.
- Yeah, I didn't ask
whether I had it on last night,
I asked whether you've seen it.
I haven't.
***!
What is your problem?!
Nothing,
I just don't think
I can wear clothes today.
Don't you have class?
Yeah, well,
nothing feels right.
Look, maybe you should like
see a doctor or something.
- Are you *** serious?
- Well, yeah,
I don't know, every day with you
it's like a bigger problem.
Not everything is something
that you can medicate, Claire!
I know that.
It's just
my clothes are...
all heavy today...
or something.
I want my Ski Iraq shirt.
Okay, I'll help you
find it.
Okay, thanks.
That's all I wanted
was some help.
Okay.
Okay.
***, I feel like
I still have something on.
Mary, Keith and David have
something they want to ask you.
I'm on pins and needles.
We've decided that we want you
to be our egg donor
and our surrogate.
- Both?
- Is that okay?
Yeah, it's just I've never been
proposed to like this.
Most people are
so businesslike.
You guys are so sweet.
- Whose seed will it be?
- His.
So this is something
that you would want to do
- for Keith and David?
- Yeah, I'd love it.
- I didn't say yes?
- Uh, no.
Oh, then yes yes,
of course, yes!
Well, good.
Can I ask a question?
Please, David.
We're in this together.
Ask ask ask.
Is there caffeine in that?
Oh, we're into that
already.
Okay. It was so nice
for a minute there.
No, I was just thinking...
I've read some books
that say caffeine makes it
harder to conceive...
sometimes, that's all.
Just curious.
Maybe you've read
something different.
I get pregnant super-easily,
David, trust me.
It's kind of unsettling.
- Okay.
- But I assure you,
once we've signed the papers
I will look forward
to working very close
with you to make sure
our baby is healthy
and gets conceived.
Thank you.
Gosh, I'm extra excited.
Aren't you?
Well, I think
we're all very excited.
- Are you finished with your eggs?
- I'm done, thank you.
When I saw the built-ins,
I fell totally in love,
and I put my name on the list.
The owner calls me
yesterday morning, he said
I could have the place.
But then he called back
an hour later and said
he wasn't renting it,
he was gonna sell it.
Oh, that's so annoying.
Whatever,
I'll find a place, I guess.
- It's all good.
- Time's up.
Oh, I was just
finding my rhythm.
Next week we start
our capelets,
so pick out some colorful
stuff and get ready.
And remember
your class fees include
unlimited knitting
circle time,
so feel free
to drop in whenever.
- See you next time.
- Ciao-ciao, Victoria.
Ciao.
Suddenly one "ciao"
was not enough.
She says
everything twice.
So...
give us
the George report.
Well, this week
has not been a cakewalk
You don't know
what a relief it was
to walk in here
and sit down.
What happened?
Oh, he started another
round of electroshock,
because George and Maggie
think it helps.
But the days
after the treatments are
such a challenge for me.
He comes home so scattered.
It's like dealing with a sleepwalker.
I don't know where you find
the strength to deal with it.
Clearly, I don't either.
Have you signed up
for next week's class?
I haven't yet, no.
Oh, Ruth, you must. You're
the only version of my mother
- I can talk to.
- I'll try and make it.
It's all good, right?
Yeah, it is.
Well, I have
errands to run,
and Maggie's waiting.
Bye.
Lila was the most active person
I ever met in my life.
I mean,
I try to stay busy
with bridge
and the Angels.
I'm a big Angel fan.
- I can see that.
- But Lila,
she was
a runaway train!
It's so hard to believe
that she won't be outside
messing around with her flowers
when I get home.
Are you sure she never married
or had any children?
Oh, she was going to,
but her beau died
very young.
After that
she ran a resort
up in Ojai
all on her own.
There were families
that came there every year,
and then
their kids would come
and their kids
would come
and they all
kept up with her.
No one
in the neighborhood
got more Christmas cards
or visits than Lila.
- Sounds like a good life.
- It was.
Today would have been
her 95th birthday.
Hmm.
What?
Well, today is
his birthday too.
Oh, how old are you?
- I'm 40.
- You don't look that old.
Thank you.
- Are you doing something special?
- Not today,
but my wife and daughter
are gonna take me
up to Big Sur
next weekend.
Oh. Big Sur.
It's so beautiful
up there.
So stunning!
I suppose I'll be
gone soon too.
- Oh...
- I will.
That's okay.
It happens.
Couldn't you say,
"Roger, my partner and I
plan to spend the morning
together, I can't pick up
- your cat at the vet"?
- David, let it go.
Why can't he get one of his
Abercrombie & Fitch
party boys to do
something like this?
You're a bodyguard,
and I'd like to get to work
at some point today.
Do you like
your new plasma TV?
I do.
Then let it go.
That cat stinks.
Keith Charles!
- And you must be David!
- Yes.
Sissy Pasquese.
Come on in.
Roger's making Kir Royales.
- Sister?
- I don't know.
- The kids are almost ready.
- Kids? Ex-wife?
- I don't know!
- How could you not know?
David, we're married,
Roger's gay,
and I'm fine with it.
But we keep it quiet, because
we're very private people.
Thank you.
- That's all I needed.
- Honey, guess who's here.
- Hello.
- Mr. Diaz?
Yes, who is this?
Agnes, I work
for the Campbells.
Julio came home
with Lucas after school.
Oh. Yeah?
Well, he kind of needs
to be picked up.
Oh, okay,
my wife Vanessa
should be there
in a little bit, I think.
No, we called her
like 10 times,
and she's not answering
her phone or something,
and the Campbells left
for Arrowhead an hour ago.
I'm sorry.
I'll be right over.
And I told Roger
10 years ago,
"Roger, I want out
of this *** L.A.
It's a plague.
I want to go home."
I haven't been
back here since,
except for two-day trips,
three-day trips, right?
I miss her
when she's gone.
I'm an Aspen girl,
what can I say?
So, what brings you
to town?
A pedunculated fibroid.
*** for me, huh?
And Tate and Enzo
need haircuts.
So, Roger tells me you two
are thinking of adopting.
Looks like that's not
happening anymore.
Because you bit Roger?
No.
It got complicated.
*** for you guys, huh?
Keith, you think you could run
the kids by Laissez-Faire
while I take Sissy
to the doctor?
Uh, we actually
have an errand
that we need to run
at some point.
It's on the way.
We'll take them.
Thanks.
Honey, the cat
still reeks.
I know, I know.
People do things for other
people. That's okay.
Well, I don't want him
to do it just for me.
- Why the hell not?
- Because I want him
to want to have
our baby,
not to do me the favor
of letting me have mine.
Don't be weirder about this
than you absolutely have to be.
But he should want to have this
as much as I do.
- He has Maya already.
- No, it's not the same thing.
Then maybe he's afraid
of losing another one.
You know?
And anyway,
let's say he is doing it just for you.
Is that so terrible?
We had Sylvia
for all the perfect
both-of-us reasons,
and I had Josh for Mark,
because he couldn't imagine
life without a boy.
I was happy with one.
Can you not tell anyone
about the pregnancy?
- *** you.
- No, I want to wait this time
until I know
everything is gonna be all right.
Brenda, stop.
I swear, sometimes
you're like Eeyore.
Check it out.
Oh, that's a good one.
10,000 to go.
But Jason is only in town
for tonight, Charese.
You have to be there,
all right?
You have to!
He just got done with basic,
and he's going, like,
in two days!
Then get off work.
I'm trying!
I'm leaving
as soon as I can.
Don't get a tone
with me
when you can't even get
your butt out of Pizza Hut.
Oh, hey, Mr. Diaz.
No, I said the 110.
- Come on, let's go home.
- The 110 to the 710.
Stop for a second
and listen to me.
I'm giving you the directions.
For crying out loud!
Next new message...
today at 2:54 P.M.
Claire, it's Billy.
Uh, sorry about this morning.
Give me a call.
Next new message...
today at 2:58 P.M.
Claire, hey, it's me.
Are you still at Amoeba?
Because if you are,
I really need to hear
some Brian Eno today,
or I'm going
to tear my eyes out.
Oh, shut up.
Next new message...
- today at 3:01...
- Oh.
Please, get a life
for one minute, please!
Do you guys have wives
besides being gay?
No.
We're a married couple,
essentially.
Well, when our Dad
married our Mom,
he was completely homosexual
in his orientation.
Only he was in such
denial about it
because of the social
pressure, it was like
- he didn't even know he was gay.
- That happens.
Well, it wasn't until he became
a success in his chosen field
that his ego felt, you know,
strong enough to face the truth.
Do you ever have sex
with chicks?
- I don't.
- So, you do?
I've had sex
with a few women.
- Have you had sex with our Dad?
- You are kind of his type.
- Do you guys have ***?
- Okay, that's enough.
No more talking
until we get to the salon.
They have ***.
- He was waiting with that girl...
- I'm sorry.
...for more than an hour!
They were gonna be there
until 4:00.
- They left early and she called you.
- My phone didn't ring.
Oh, ***.
Don't pretend you don't know
that *** happens.
I don't have to pretend anything.
The way it is is bad enough.
- If we were still together...
- This wouldn't happen? ***!
- It would happen less!
- Really? What a good point.
I know it's all
my fault, Vanessa.
Whenever anything
goes wrong with the boys
from now until the end of time
it will be because I went out
and *** some ***, okay?
I know, I know, I know!
- Look.
- What?
You wanna hang out for a while?
You wanna stay for dinner?
I was supposed to go
to this, um...
but you know,
I can call and change it.
No, you're not
doing me any favors.
Oh, God, I didn't say I was
doing you any favors. ***.
I'm feeling
pretty secure now,
but I went
through a phase last year
where, you know,
I was so shy around chicks
that I thought
maybe I was gay, too.
I think it's pretty normal
to go through a phase like that.
Yeah it is,
but then we had
some group sessions
with our therapists and Dad,
and it turned out
what I was really afraid of was
not being gay.
I mean, if I wasn't gay,
would Dad still love me?
So, that cleared it up.
I'm not gay, and I have
a girlfriend in Aspen.
- Oh, what's her name?
- Alison. She's bi.
Keith, does this look
completely deviant?
No! Looks good.
We're almost done.
Thank you.
My Mom has a friend
back home named Vernon,
but she doesn't feel like he'd be
a good *** partner for her.
I have to say
I kind of agree.
You know what?
I think I'm gonna stay here
and get a haircut while you take
these two back home.
- If that's okay.
- Sure.
I'll come back and pick you up
after I drop the kids off.
Thanks.
- So how is he doing?
- Not great.
He's been asking to go down
to the bomb shelter again.
I don't think
it's a good idea.
I told him
I would ask you.
No, I don't want to risk
going through all that again.
We should board that place up
and forget it's there.
Maybe it would be
good for him
- to have somewhere...
- No.
Did you have a nice time
out in the world?
I did. It was a very nice day,
thank you.
- Happy birthday.
- Happy birthday.
Thanks.
The day I turned 40
you were in Europe.
I spent the whole day
wondering if you'd call.
Sorry.
Don't apologize,
you did what you had to do.
You little ***.
So much crazy ***
has happened
since these pictures
were taken.
So much.
The idea
of 40 more years...
Oh, but the next 40
fly by much faster.
It will be over
before you know it.
Time flies when you're
having fun, huh?
No, huh-uh.
Time flies when you're
pretending to have fun.
Time flies when you're
pretending to love Brenda
and that baby
she wants so much.
Time flies when you're
pretending to know
what people mean
when they say...
"love."
Let's face it,
buddy boy,
there's two kinds
of people in the world...
there's you and
there's everybody else,
and never
the twain shall meat.
Take it.
I got time.
What are you doing?
Still at work.
Is everything okay?
Yeah, everything is fine.
- How's the baby?
- Well, I haven't lost it
since this morning,
if that's what you're asking.
That's not what I meant.
Could you stop by Whole Foods
on the way home
and pick up some
Chocolate Silk for Maya?
- Yeah, sure.
- And can you call me from there
in case I've forgotten
anything?
Yep.
Look, I'm not gonna come home
to some big fight, am I?
No.
All right.
- Bye.
- Bye.
It's not the size
of the animal
that makes it deadly,
it's the size of its mouth.
The bigger the mouth...
And then we go to the vet,
and then back to the house,
and then all over Beverly Hills,
and then finally
we come here.
It's like his job came
and found my day and ate it.
Well, I learned
when I was a kid...
don't go to work with Dad,
it's never fun.
But saying no is
the hardest thing
in the world.
- At least for me.
- Me too.
- Just wait a second.
- What's the matter?
I don't think
I should do this.
- All right.
- I mean, you seem really nice...
- That's not a problem.
...but Keith and I are doing
this whole surrogacy thing,
it's really confusing and hard,
- and plus I got abducted last year...
- Okay, David,
you don't have to explain.
Just stay in here
a second.
Get your *** together.
Surprise!
Happy birthday!
Happy birthday.
- Hey, thank you
- Give Daddy a kiss.
"Oh Lordy, Nate's 40."
Is that your idea?
This is Jackie
from work.
- Oh, family dinner Jackie.
- Yes.
- Hi, nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.
So the Big Sur thing was
just a ruse, huh?
- Why, are you disappointed?
- No no no, not at all.
- You need a beer.
- Yeah, a beer would be great.
Mazel tov, by the way,
on the baby.
- Oh, thank you, thank you.
- Yeah, that's great.
- Thank you very much.
- Yeah.
Thank you, God,
for this food.
- Amen.
- Amen.
That's it?
"Thank you, God,
for this food. Amen"?
Yeah.
Whatever happened
to "Bless us, O Lord,
and these thy gifts
which we are about to receive"?
- We shortened it up. Didn't we?
- Mm-hmm.
- Are we sure it's right?
- Yeah, we are.
Want some Fritos?
Breakfast in bed.
No, thank you, Papito.
I'm good.
Ruth, would you like
- a refill for that?
- Thank you very much.
We're right
in the boondocks, okay?
Pretty soon I had started
turning into social events
during the week,
and I'd be cranking along,
and she'd be like,
"It's kind of just us, Todd,
it's just the club."
Next thing I know
she's *** this guy
with nut cancer.
- Jesus!
- She's *** Lance Armstrong.
No! She's ***
Lance Armstrong?!
No no, of course not,
but in essence, yeah,
- she's *** Lance Armstrong.
- Oh.
Here's the kicker, though.
This divorce is the best thing
that ever happened to me.
I've had more ***
in the last year
than I've had in my life.
I hate you.
Moral of the story...
40 is only the beginning.
It's just
the *** beginning.
- Here's how, man.
- Cheers.
I used to mountain bike
in Griffith Park,
and I saw
this guy once
- who had totally endo'd, you know?
- Uh-huh.
And he was laying
12 *** feet from his bike.
His ball sack was
completely ripped open.
It was like, uh,
two pink eggs
kind of vibrating
in this totally
shredded mess.
It was insane.
- ***.
- Jesus, Billy.
- What the ***, man?
- No, I was just thinking
about the guy
with nut cancer.
- Yeah, I got you.
- Oh, yeah.
Happy birthday.
Sorry we're late.
He had to get a haircut.
- What, for this?
- Yeah, that's what I thought.
- Well, it looks good, I guess.
- Thanks.
So how long have you two ***
known about this?
Couple of weeks.
Yeah, what else
aren't you telling me?
Nothing.
- What?
- I think it's cake time.
- Hey, did you meet him, man?
- Meet who?
- Lance Armstrong.
- I was speaking metaphorically.
Oh, God, where did you guys
get this amazing cake?
This Cuban place
in Atwater.
Porto's. It's in Glendale.
Light from a cake
is such a great light.
We should just live
in cake light.
Yeah, okay, here we go.
Come on, make a wish.
Speech speech speech!
- No.
- Aw, come on, man.
Look, I'm sorry. Seriously,
I don't know what to say
you know, that wouldn't
sound lame.
I have something to say,
if that's all right.
Please.
It is the most difficult
thing in the world
to watch your children
grow up and move on.
And when you left home,
my firstborn,
- I was very sad.
- Here we go.
This is not about you!
These past five years with you
have been a gift, Nate.
That's all I wanted to say.
Happy birthday.
Thank you, Mom.
Well, I can't think of anything
to say to add to that,
so, uh...
Can I tell 'em?
You're pregnant?
Uh... yeah.
Fantastic!
- Congratulations, my man.
- Thank you.
That's great.
Congratulations.
What the ***?
- Wait, where's Maya?
- I've got her.
Sounds like
something fell.
- How did it get in?
- Through the window.
So blue.
- It's a good omen.
- Sci-Fi channel says it's a bad omen.
- It's not an omen. It's a bird.
- Amen.
- No, omen, it's pronounced omen.
- Thanks.
Birds don't usually fly at night.
It's probably sick.
Do you think
it has avian flu?
Obviously, we don't know.
Just open the window,
close the door, and it'll find
its own way out.
But he'll poop all over everything
in the meantime.
- Ruth!
- Seriously, what kind of plan is that,
to let a sick bird run wild
in the house pooping?
You know what, Mom? I think
George is right.
I am just gonna...
open the window.
I'm gonna open this door.
Somebody close that door.
- Hey, Nate, grab the beer, okay?
- Yeah, I'll grab the beer, Tom.
- Thank you.
- It's a beautiful bird.
God,
it's *** cerulean.
So let's just
close this door
and see what happens.
Jesus.
- Thanks for letting me stay.
- Sure.
I haven't put the boys
to bed for awhile.
I miss that.
Yeah, they miss it too.
What are you doing?
I gotta get the ***
out of here.
Why?
I just do. We'll cruise Mulholland.
We'll go to the lookout.
No, I don't want to go.
It's my brother's birthday.
There's a bird in the kitchen.
Isn't being with other people
ever too much for you to deal with?
Yeah, like right now.
Look, there it is.
- Shoo it out the window.
- Wait a second.
- Don't touch it.
- David, shut up.
Good job.
- You're not coming?
- No, I already told you that.
Here.
You keep the car.
- You can't walk home.
- If it's too far, I'll take a cab.
Stop it! Just relax
and stay, please.
I want you to stay.
Please.
All right.
- But just for a little while, okay?
- Fine.
***... ***!
***! God!
***! ***!
It's just a bird.
What is your problem?
I'm just kinda
freaked out by things
that are moving around
that I can't control.
It's not a problem.
Did you stop taking
your medication?
Yeah, but that's
a good thing.
- Why?
- Because, Claire, okay,
I'm sick of feeling
like I'm living every moment
inside a giant Xeroxed
*** cotton ball.
- I gotta go outside.
- No, don't go.
I'm just going outside.
Will you *** listen when I talk?
- Hey, what's going on?
- I'm just going outside.
- Jesus Christ.
- What the *** is going on?
Nothing.
Everything is fine.
- He didn't just hit you, did he?
- No.
Would you please stop
being such a freak?
By the way, the bird
is in the bedroom now.
Yeah, well, how did the bird
get in the bedroom?
It flew in the door.
Stop *** up.
She used to be the wife
on that big fat husband show.
- Which one?
- "More for Me."
Are you sure this is
the same Victoria Adams?
Oh, yeah yeah, that show was
a huge hit for seven years,
and then when they finally
shut down,
- she opened that knitting store.
- She never mentions it.
Well, then I bet she still does
that winking thing, right?
She does do that
winking thing.
Well, that was her thing
on the show, yeah.
- Hey, are you okay?
- Oh, yeah.
"Max the poet,
and he's the dog."
What are you reading?
We are reading a book about
a dog who is also a poet.
- Excuse me.
- You are? Great.
Yeah, doggie
doggie doggie.
- He's a dog.
- Yep yep.
By the way,
just for the record,
I don't know what Sissy Pasquese
means when she says "private,"
but those kids of hers know
way too much about everything.
I think it's nice they've been given some
perspective.
Yeah, in exchange
for a childhood.
Whatever we do, we're not gonna
put our kids through that.
Parents can have a few secrets.
It's not a bad thing.
- I'm serious.
- Fine. We'll have secrets.
You got it.
Okay.
"Paris, the city of dreams,
the city of lights,
the city of love."
Shh shh shh.
You're gonna wake the boys.
No, they sleep
through it now.
Okay.
Is this the line to pee?
Yep.
So the bird's in there now?
- Yeah.
- How'd it get in there?
I don't know.
What did you say to Billy?
He was really upset.
I didn't say anything to Billy.
He had some thing with Claire,
- he got mad and walked out.
- Well, what happened?
You know, I don't know
what happened, Brenda.
I guess what usually happens.
Your brother went *** mental.
Hey, you might want to wait a few seconds
before you go in there.
Thanks.
Why did you ***
invite that guy?
- I thought he was your friend.
- He's not.
- You know, it really...
- Excuse me.
I hate that you're always jumping
to conclusions about Billy.
You'll never believe
he's getting better.
No, I won't. I hate that he's with Claire and
in our *** house.
Yeah, well, at least
he knows how to keep a secret.
Look, I know that you told Jackie,
so what's the big *** deal?
There is a very big difference
between me telling my supervisor,
and you telling our entire family,
who are now looking at me wondering
- when I'm gonna lose this baby.
- Jesus Christ!
This morning I wasn't excited
enough, now I'm too excited.
That wasn't excitement. That was
macho, aggressive male ***.
What the *** is this?
It makes me wonder
if we should be together.
We just got married.
Yeah, well, if it's not
right, it's not right.
You might want to light a match
in there. It wasn't me.
You're freaked out because you're
pregnant. You see that, don't you?
Yeah, with a baby
that you don't even want.
- ***!
- You don't respect me enough
to wait until we know
everything's all right
- before you tell the whole world.
- Shut the *** up!
I need to pee.
Nate!
Yeah?
Tequila shots
in the kitchen.
Get in here!
So you stopped taking it?
- Just like that?
- Yeah.
And you feel?
I feel a little tingly.
That's about it.
What do they got you on
these days?
Well, they just switched me
from lithium to Tofranil,
in between
the shock treatments.
What are those like?
Honestly...
I don't know.
I go in. They put me on a bed.
They give me some oxygen.
They say, "You're gonna feel
a little prick in your hand."
That always makes me laugh.
And then the next thing
I know I wake up
with the worst headache
I've ever had in my life.
Do you think it's helping?
I think that...
as Émile Coué used to say,
"Every day in every way,
I am getting better and better."
But not everyone agrees.
Yeah, it's hard to get
your *** together
with someone watching
all the time.
Yeah, it is.
But when no one's watching,
then where are you?
Where the ***
are you then?
I'm gonna take off.
- Okay.
- Why don't you give these to Claire?
- Yeah, sure.
- Thanks.
Happy birthday.
I mean, it's nice
to see you.
Yeah.
"Louie's wearing
the green hat."
- Who's that?
- Louis.
Louis. That's right.
Hey.
Hey.
You must be looking forward
to this routine.
Yeah, I think it's
gonna be wonderful.
Oh, come on.
Who's got on
the blue coat?
- Who's that?
- Bear.
- The bear, the bear.
- The bear.
For so many years, David was
always the one saying,
"Come on,
let's have kids."
And I was the one
on the fence,
but now that it's
actually gonna happen,
I'm finally realizing I'm gonna be
disappointed if it doesn't work out.
Oh, it'll work out.
It's like I'm already missing this kid that we
don't even have yet.
I mean, don't get me wrong,
David's excited too.
Oh, yeah, you know,
Nate too.
It's a team effort.
I'll let you guys
have your moment.
Say "Good night,
Uncle Keith."
- Good night, Uncle Keith.
- Good night.
Are you sleepy,
little one?
- Could you turn the light off?
- Oh, yeah, sure.
And close the door, thanks.
Okay, little one,
I think that's enough
for tonight.
Mm, raspberry.
Everything tastes
like beer right now.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Hey.
George told me
that Billy told him
to tell you to give you these.
Billy left?
That's what George said.
I'm sorry.
You want some cake?
- No.
- Come on, have some.
- Hey, dude, leave her alone.
- I can take care of myself, thanks.
Looks like
it's cake time.
I've been saving up
for this.
Ooh, good.
***. All right, fine,
I'll have a piece.
Here you go.
I'm in here.
- Hey.
- Sorry.
No, that's okay.
It's cool.
I just needed a moment.
Yeah, me, too.
Is it gone?
- Yeah.
- Finally.
You know, Mom and George,
they left.
I'm getting a ride
from Keith and David.
Oh.
Tequila?
Sure.
Thanks.
Impressive.
Yeah, many years
in Arizona, much Tequila.
Oh.
Good birthday?
Yeah, it's okay.
Feel like all I can
get out of this birthday
is that life
is really *** lonely.
You have this
wonderful family
- and a baby on the way.
- I know.
And it's really
*** lonely.
I just feel like
all I do all day long
is manage myself,
try to *** connect
with people.
But it's like no matter
how much energy
you pour into getting
to the station on time
or getting
on the right train,
there's still no guarantee that anybody's
gonna be there for you
to pick you up
when you get there.
You know what I mean?
Well, I know that if you think
life's a vending machine,
where you put in virtue
and you get out happiness,
then you're probably
gonna be disappointed.
I know that.
Is that how I sound?
A little.
Nate! Nate!
Get in here!
- ***!
- I don't think believe it.
Oh, my God!
Well, how the ***
did it get in again?
- Through the window.
- Yeah, why was the window open?
'Cause you said it was
in the bedroom. Don't be such a jerk.
*** off.
I have to do every
little *** thing myself.
I have tried
all night long
to do the right thing
by this bird,
but it just keeps
*** with me.
- Try not to take it personally.
- Shut up, David.
Nate!
Get out!
Jesus Christ, chill.
Get the *** out!
How many times do I have
to *** apologize?
Sorry.
I'm so sorry that I'm putting you
through all of this.
- It's not your fault. I know that.
- No, you don't.
You say that you do, but I can tell
by the way you look at me,
you think that all of this
is my fault.
You don't wanna make love to me.
You don't wanna kiss me.
You don't wanna be
in the same room with me!
- That's not true.
- Oh, yes, it is!
Ruth...
don't you understand?
Nobody grows up thinking this is
how they're gonna turn out to be.
If I could change
just by snapping my fingers,
- I'd do it.
- I know you would, George.
I am trying...
so hard to get better.
- And you are.
- But not fast enough for you!
You're getting better as fast
as you can. I know that.
I am so lucky.
I hate that I'm the lucky one.
No one's ever lucky
to have me.
Nobody's ever been
lucky to have me.
It's good, right?
Rico, wake up.
Baby, hurry up.
You gotta get out of here.
Why?
I don't want the boys to see you.
It'll confuse them.
Oh.
All right.
- I know there's beautiful snow there...
- No, that's great.
I just, you know...
Thank you.
Okay, bye.
Who was that?
- Roger.
- What did he want?
It turns out Sissy
was the board chair
- of an adoption agency once.
- Yeah...
She called in a favor, and she said
we could adopt through them,
if we still wanted to.
We kind of made a commitment
to Mary.
I know, but we don't know for sure
that that's really going to work out.
We always said
we'd pursue both options
until it made sense
to stop, right?
Yeah, I guess so.
So now Roger's your hero?
A little.
So you got like almost no
haircut yesterday, right?
He just took a little
off the top.
Where have you been?
Nowhere.
I stayed at my house.
You *** somebody.
It's okay.
I'm not mad.
Just tell me who it was.
Was it that divorced guy?
- Billy, come on.
- I forgive you, Claire.
You can just admit it.
Just... just be
honest with me.
Yeah, it was him.
Okay.
Will you *** me now?
- Please.
- No.
- You know I forgive you, Claire?
- No.
It's okay.
Just *** me now.
- No. No!
- Come on, take off your pants.
- Please? Come on.
- Get the *** away from me!
But I forgive you.
- Come on, I need to be inside you.
- No!
I'm sorry.
