The House of Yes Page #2
I don't want a comb.
I want a brush.
- Combs straighten your hair out. I want it to gleam.
- It is gleaming.
- It is not.
- It is. It is. I need sunglasses almost.
- It is?
- It is.
- Marty!
- Uh, Jackie!
- Lesly, this is Jackie-O.
- Hi.
My mother. Anthony.
Meet Lesly.
Lesly and I are engaged.
- I have to find my hairbrush.
- Oh, I-I have a comb.
Marty, you're a wreck.
Give me your coat.
- I was in a hurricane, Mama. I just came in from a hurricane.
- Oh, you look thin.
You're thin. You look so thin.
Oh, my God, I sounded like a mother.
- Didn't I sound just like a mother?
- You are a mother.
I know, but I still
can't believe it.
I look at you people and wonder,
however did you fit in my womb?
Marty, why don't you get the fire really
going like you do? Anthony, you help him.
Squeeze the blower or something.
Lesly and I will check on dinner.
- No, you cannot.
- There's going to be girl talk in there.
- I like girl talk.
If you were there,
it wouldn't be girl talk, would it?
- Do I have to squeeze the blower?
- No, sweetheart.
You just have to do something
in some other location.
You have a lovely home.
- Home?
- Your house. It's lovely.
Oh, yes, it was. I mean, it is. I mean,
it will be until it gets blown away.
We'll all get blown away
to Oz or something.
- Can I help with anything?
- Oh, no. It's all under control.
So, Lesly, how long
have you known Marty?
- Um, about six months.
- And you know him pretty well, do you?
I don't know. I think so. I guess
you've met a lot of Marty's girlfriends.
- No, not really.
- Well, I hope I'm the first fiancee.
Oh, you're definitely the first
and, I hope, the last.
Me too.
I had one great passion in my life.
Do you know what that was?
- Your husband?
- My husband. Precisely.
I didn't know he was my one
great passion until he was gone.
Till he was gone, my one great passion was
the man I met that night at a party...
any man I met at a party who could use
a new adjective to describe me.
I really have no idea
All I know for sure is...
that Jackie and Marty
belong to each other.
Jackie's hand was holding Marty's penis
when they came out of the womb.
It's in some medical journal somewhere.
- I guess I should go freshen up now.
- Oh, do.
By all means.
Look at you, you're drenched.
- Anthony, did I put clean towels out on the bed?
- How should I know?
Go and see.
And show Lesly to the guest room.
- Why not my room, Mama?
- You're not married yet, are you, young man?
- Are there sheets on the bed?
- Mm-hmm.
Make sure to show her how to
jiggle the toilet so it doesn't run.
