5 Flights Up Page #2
Well,
then we'll go where the houses are cheaper.
There's no way
we can leave New York.
We're not going to
leave New York. No.
All we need is a place for
you to paint and an elevator.
I handle the stairs
better than Lily does.
Sure, you do now, honey, but...
What about later?
I don't know.
You know, I...
I've read about
these open houses.
People steal things.
Okay, I will nail the
furniture to the floor. All right?
I don't like the idea
poking through our things.
You don't have to be here.
You do not have to be here.
You can take a walk.
You can go see a movie.
Well, I might do that.
We're just dipping our toes into the water.
That's all.
Nobody's making
any commitments. Nobody.
What's the matter, sweetheart?
What happened?
What's wrong?
Alex. Something's
wrong with Dorothy.
What?
What's the matter?
She's shaking. I don't know.
She's shaking,
and then when I picked her up she screamed.
What's the matter, girl?
She screamed.
I don't know,
I think she's in pain.
Maybe we should
take her to the vet.
It's probably nothing.
No.
Remember last year?
It cost us $700 to
find out she had gas.
Don't try to go so fast, Ruth.
You don't want to fall down these steps.
I'm not gonna fall down.
She's shaking,
because she's upset.
I think we could use an elevator.
Don't you? At this point?
Well, I guess we could,
but we don't have one.
What happened?
We think it's her back.
You want a cab?
Yeah. Please, please.
Taxi!
Thank God.
Is there a fire?
They say that
there's a gasoline truck
stuck on
the Williamsburg Bridge.
Always something, isn't it?
Thank you, Mr. Rahim.
You're welcome. You're welcome.
Good luck with the dog.
The tanker is
blocking two lanes.
That's right, Brian.
All Manhattan-bound traffic
Are they talking
about the bridge?
Could you turn the music down, please?
Yeah.
Please. Thank you.
...has jackknifed on
the Williamsburg Bridge
a few minutes ago.
The mayor made a statement urging
people to avoid all but essential...
I still don't hear anything.
What? Did you forget
your hearing aid?
Some tanker's stuck on the bridge.
That's all I'm hearing.
Now, the mayor's telling people
not to come into
the city tonight.
Should we have taken the tunnel?
Nah. No way.
Everything's a mess.
Hey... What's with your dog?
You know, actually,
we don't know.
Maybe he ate a plastic bag.
You know, my dog did that once.
He got real sick.
I'm sorry.
Okay, thank you.
There you go.
Keep the change. Thank you.
God. Here we go.
Hey, good luck with the dog.
You'll find out in the
morning if she ate a bag.
I got it, I got it, I got it.
