Intolerable Cruelty

# I am just a poor boy #

# Though my story's seldom told #

# I have squandered my resistance #

# For a pocketful of mumbles #

# Such are promises #

# All lies and jest #

# Still, a man hears

what he wants to hear #

# Just a come-on from those gals #

#Just a come-on from the whores #

# On Seventh Avenue #

Whoo-whoo!

# I do declare #

# There were times

when I was so lonesome #

# That I took

some comfort there #

# La-la-la, la-la-la-la ##

Bonnie?

Who is it?

Donovan?

Bonnie?

Yes?

Donovan?

In here.!

Yes? Donovan.

Is everything all right?

Yeah. The production meeting

was put off, so I thought... Who's here?

Here?

Mm.

Who owns that piece-of-sh*t van

down there?

Oh...

It's just a guy, you know, going door-to-door

selling... pool cleaner.

So why did he lock himself in the den?

Well, he...

Oh, God.

- Remember my friend Ollie?

- Ollie Olerud?

Short, cretinous wanker?

Ohh. Ollie's in there?

- Yes.

- I see.

Well, I'm glad he finally

got himself a job.

I'd always picked him as some sort of

deadbeat, but... happy to be proved wrong.

So, he's selling

pool cleaner now, huh?

Well, this is the neighborhood for that. Just

door-to-door..."Running low on chlorine?"

It's quite a coincidence,

him just dropping by...

and you two

knowing each other so well.

Donovan, please, let's just all talk...

How you doin'?

Donovan? How you doin', man?

Good day, Ollie.

I'm great. You?

I... can't complain, man.

Excellent.

Well, let's get right down

to it then, shall we?

We'll take a couple vacuum hoses.

We probably need a new filter right about now, maybe...

Wait a minute, darling.

Do we actually have a swimming pool?

Okay, okay, man. Now, let's be

reasonable about this, okay?

So, you caught me porkin'...

havin'relations

with your old lady...

Oh, God.

and now we're all feelin' just a little bit

embarrassed by the whole thing, so, uh...

What the hey, man.

I mean, I know it's a drag and all,

but these things...

Hey! Hey, hey.

Uh, w-we... we...

we didn't actually have sex.

I was depressed 'cause

I'm impotent. You know?

Unable to achieve an erection.

I have been for over

a year now, man,

and I needed someone to talk to.

I mean, think about it, man.

A year without an erection?

Leave him alone!

- You should've seen this coming, you Australian piece of sh*t!

- You b*tch.!

That's my Daytime Television

Lifetime Achievement Award!

Cheesy bastard!

Aaah!

You whore.!

Oh, Christ!

Okay.

All right, you want fun and games?

All right.

I'll give you fun and games.

Explain this away.

# Li-la-li #

Aaah! Ollie!

# Li-la-li-li, li-la-li #

That's my Jag.! That's my Jag.!

# Li-la-li #

# Li-la-li-li, li-la-li #

That's my bloody Jag!

# Li-la-li-li-li #

You b*tch!

B*tch! B*tch!

Bye-bye, baby!

Oh, what are you looking at?

Explain this away, darling.

# We're caught in a trap #

# Because I love you

too much, baby #

# Why can't you see #

# What you're doin'to me #

# When you don't believe #

# A word I say #

# We can't go on together #

# With suspicious minds #

#Suspicious minds #

#And we can't build our dreams #

# On suspicious minds #

#So if an old friend I know #

#Drops by to say hello #

# Would I still see suspicion #

#In your eyes #

#But here we go again #

#Askin' where I been #

# You can't see the tears are real #

#I'm cryin'#

# Yes, I'm cryin'#

# We can't go on together #

# Suspicious minds #

# And we can't build our dreams #

# On suspicious minds #

# Oh, let our love survive #

# I'll dry the tears from your eyes #

# Let's don't let a good thing die #

# When, honey, you know #

# I have never #

# Lied to you #

# Mm-mmm #

# Yeah, yeah #

# We're caught in a trap #

# I can't walk out #

# Oooh #

#Because I love you #

Miles Massey's office.

Hey, it's me. Any messages?

Yeah, quite a few. Where are you?

Just whitening.

Jim says he wants a meeting today, if possible.

Mm-hmm. What else?

Chapman says his wife

is now in Tahoe.

Tell Amstedler

I'll return in 20 minutes,

get Wrigley to look up Oliphant v. Oliphant,

Common wealth of Virginia...

for its relevance

in the Chapman filing...

Oliphant v. Oliphant, relevance to Chapman...

She said she took the kids to Tahoe?

That's right.

Wait, which side of Tahoe?

She's on some kind of cruise.

Yeah, well, if the cruise goes all the way around

the lake, she's left the state and she's in breach.

Tell Wrigley to prepare a filing to attach.

A filing to attach.

What do you want in it?

Everything.

Primary residence, beach house, ski cabin,

auto, stocks, bonds, dental floss.

Everything.

Uh-huh. Gonna lose ya.

Uh-huh.

And tell Fred Armatrading that we finally

have pictures of his wife with the oral surgeon.

Oh, and get a fruit and pastry basket in the conference

room for my 9:
30. Didn't have time for breakfast.

Where are you?

Comin' at ya.

Your 9:
00 is here.

Bonnie Donaly.

Bonnie Donaly.

Mrs. Donaly.

Hmm.

Mm-hmm.

Hmm.

Yes, your husband did show remarkable

foresight in taking those pictures,

and, yes,

absent a swimming pool,

the presence of a pool man

would appear to be suspicious.

But, madam,

who is the real victim here?

Let me suggest to you

the following.

Your husband, on a prior occasion,

had slapped you... beat you.

I think that word is not inappropriate.

No, I...
