Everybody's Fine Page #3

-Come on.

-Are we here?

Man.

-Dude, I can't believe you, man.

-What?

I can't believe you, all night...

David.

What are you gonna do

when you grow up?

I wanna be a painter

and do my pictures.

No, not a painter.

Christ, painters paint walls,

and dogs pee on walls.

You're gonna be an artist.

Artists paint pictures

that change people's lives.

-So what are you gonna be?

-An artist.

That's right, an artist.

So, you gonna work hard?

Yes, Dad.

You gonna make me proud?

I'm trying, Dad.

Unfortunately, it's going to be

on top of the coast sometime tomorrow.

Right now, Hurricane Alice is packing

winds of 165 miles per hour.

We've got a Category 5 hurricane.

The pressure...

Looks like a bad storm.

A bad storm.

I'm 94.

-I keep away from the doctors.

-Boy.

I have 3 children, 6 grandchildren.

They're busy.

They're too busy to talk to me.

I gotta make an appointment.

They got lost someplace.

They don't need anybody.

People changed, life is changed.

Today, you shake hands

with somebody,

you gotta count your fingers

to make sure you got 5 fingers back.

-Hi.

-Hi.

-Can I help you?

-Do the bells work?

Yeah.

My son lives in apartment 9.

I'm not sure if he's home.

-All right.

-Thank you.

David?

Through my sleepless days

I found

That in my dreamless sleep I'm bound

To one night hear the sound

Of you calling

Do not stumble through tonight

Have no fear of falling

We won't stumble through tonight

Drowning in their laughter

Amy, it's Rosie.

-Dad's not answering his phone.

-Well, don't call him.

Not till we know what's going on

with David.

-Is there any more news?

-No.

I just had that one call from Mexico

saying he'd been arrested.

I keep leaving messages,

but no one's calling back.

I think we should tell Dad.

Not until we know what's going on.

Just avoid talking to him

for a couple of days

-till we know the facts, okay?

-Okay.

-My God!

-Surprise.

Yeah, definitely. Come on in, Grandpa.

-Man, does Mom know?

-No, I hope not.

Well, hey, look at you.

I thought you were supposed to be

in bed with a fever.

-I don't know, am I?

-That's what she told me.

Yeah, I think I was...

-It's got a handle.

-Of course it's got a handle.

-I didn't know that.

-It's got wheels.

-Yeah. Look how big you got.

-I know, right?

-Gee.

-Hey, listen. I'm online.

-I'll be back in a minute.

-All right. You do your thing.

-Mom's out back.

-Okay, good.

No, I need to get down there. Yeah.

Can you check out some flights

and see what's available?

Amy!

Dad?

What are you doing here?

What do you mean,

what am I doing here?

Everybody didn't show up for the visit.

So I said, "If you don't come to me,

I'm gonna go to you."
