I ripped up the canvas

that painted our sadness

I know you're my friend

not my foe

whoa, ho

Damn it, frank!

( sobbing ) No!

And hope

is a lot like a rope

you're tangled

before you get choked

I ripped up the canvas

that painted our sadness

I know you're my friend

not my foe, whoa

nope.

( sobbing )

( Yells out ) Ah, f***er!

Ah, f***.

Laura:

I got it.

I... I can do this.

You don't have to worry

about me.

Your... your mother

didn't always take care

of me, you know?

Hell, there was that time

when I took care of both of you.

Oh, so I've heard.

( Slurps, spits )

B*tch! Ow! Ow!

We're gonna get you

someone good, frank.

You're just like your mother.

You worry too much.

Good night, frank.

( TV playing )

Hi, I was calling to setup

an interview

for the caretaker position

you applied for.

( Snorts )

I'm gonna need

the television every night

between primetime

and 2:
00 A.M.

I run a very successful

recap blog.

You remind me

of my late husband.

I don't cook or clean.

Just care take.

Dude, we are gonna kill it

when we hang out

at the skate park.

- Dude.

- Dude!

Yeah, this could

really work out.

But just so you know,

I don't clean or do laundry

with store bought chemicals.

- I'm allergic.

- F*** you!

Whew! Oh...

( Chuckles )

( Laughs ) It's lavender.

It'll calm him down.

Can I get paid in advance?

Yeah, and can I borrow

your car, too?

You have to talk to her

about the car.

I can't drive.

- Thank you for your time.

- Ah.

( Thick accent )

A rose and, uh...

Have you ever been on a cruise?

No, no.

Yeah, this sounds great,

but I have to ask.

Are there any elementary schools

within a quarter of a mile?

Do... do you have a problem

with little kids?

No, I love children.

Dude, you know what

we're gonna do?

We're gonna strap

some skates to your ass

and we're gonna

fly you down the ramp.

Dude, everybody's

gonna love you.

- You gonna strape...

- strap.

- Strap?

- Yes.

- Skates to my ass?

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- It's gonna be awesome.

- No.

- Awesome.

I make a pupusas, too.

Pupusas.

When can you start?

- Oh.

- ( Laughs )

Okay, yes, I guess.

Lastly, here is

our lovely kitchen.

- Oh.

- Hmm.

Frank doesn't cook,

so you'll have to do that.

And it's best

that you cook him things

that do not splat or squirt

or slurp.

Eh, excuse me,

splatter, eh, squirt?

With his ticks

it's just a lot easier

to clean up,

so you can stick to stuff

like burgers, sandwiches,

that sort of thing.

- Yes, yes, that's okay.

- ( Sighs )

- Okay, great, great.

- ( Sighs )

Lemme give you my number

and if anything comes up,

- you can...

- ( Grunts )

Frank.

Frank, what the hell

are you doing?
