Negative.

I'm being recorded

and you're being recorded.

You know how I'm being recorded?

Because every call you make

I'm recorded on.

But this time you're

being recorded by my people.

I love you.

I love you, too.

Have sweet dreams.

You, too.

- Bye.

- Bye.

The caller has hung up.

Okay.

I always gotta wait for

"the caller has hung up."

That way I know she has hung up.

But, yup, that's what it's like

talking to my mom.

I work with my dad.

I make 20 bucks a day

whenever I work a full day.

He does oddball jobs and stuff.

Right here is the garden

we've been working on.

And, I mean,

it's still a work in progress,

everything is, basically.

Hear that lonesome

whippoorwill

It sounds too blue to fly

The midnight train

Is whining low

I'm so lonesome I could cry

Pretty much just

dumping the water in it.

But just can't bump that iron,

it's gotta set real easy.

Take an electric skillet,

put it over there

and heat it up quick,

it's like five minutes,

you got hot water.

See, that one's steaming now,

that's almost good enough.

Put a little water in that tub.

Then the coffee pot.

And by the time this one's done,

that one will be ready to go.

It's steaming now so it's ready.

Take the whole thing in there.

When you're in a place

where there's no work

and you can't pay the bills

and it gets shut off

you learn to survive,

the survival.

There's other people

waiting to take a bath.

One minute.

Minute's up, move.

Go.

All right.

Get that bath,

get that ass washed, boy.

You're ready for

your next school day.

I don't know why

he wears shorts.

I guess he's just

crazy like that.

My little, bitty,

baby twin sister.

I'm not that short.

Yeah, you are.

She's just great.

I mean, we have our times

where I'll throw down

and do a little bit of this.

And there's times whenever

she goes...

"Come on,

you wanna tussle?"

I don't know if he thinks

he has something to prove.

I have no clue,

but he's totally changed.

Now he's Mr. Big and Bad

and gonna fight

everybody out there.

Here, baby, tuck it under ya

and then when you sit down

you tuck it under you.

There.

My air is on

and we don't have a dog.

Keep that door shut.

Get out of the kitchen, you'll

eat supper when it's done.

I'm hungry!

How can you be hungry, Pac?

You ate a whole can of raviolis

meant for three people.

So?

I don't think you need

anything else right now.

What do you want?

No.

I said no, get out of my face.

More.

I don't think it's funny.

I don't f***ing care.

Good.

Goddamn!

I never got to have any

dreams or ideals about my life.

I turned 17, moved out

of my mom's house,

started working,

met Jeremy and got married.
