All accounts are closed

until further notice.

Even coffee.

Sandy, come on in please.

- Your ring.

- Yeah, my ring.

Is everything okay?

I just had a bit of a problem.

I cannot buy this.

These things happen.

Small glitch.

If there is any expense tied up

to the resizing of the ring,

I want to take care

of it out of petty cash.

I need you

at the house tonight.

Bring the whole

rolodex with you.

Brian's gonna

meet us there

and we've got

some work to do.

Thank you.

I'm really sorry.

Hey, there you are.

Come here.

Sit next to me.

What are you

so late for?

Happy birthday, baby.

Thank you.

What happened?

Why are you so late?

Small, small problem

at the office.

- Oh.

- Baby...

Problems are never

small for you.

Inexcusable, baby.

Inexcusable.

It's not right.

It's okay, sweetheart.

You're here.

Baby, I feel terrible.

It's all right.

Look at the party.

It's beautiful.

I know, I know.

I'm having such

a good time.

What's up?

What's going on?

It didn't happen.

Didn't happen.

It's bad, right?

It's gonna work out, baby.

It's gonna work out.

You know me, right?

It's your birthday, baby.

What are we talking about?

It's your birthday...

And I'm having a wonderful

time on my birthday.

Yeah?

You've got

some things to do.

I want you to go do

what you need to do -

and then come back.

I know you so well.

I know what you need.

Go ahead.

Go.

Okay.

Amer?

Can I talk to you

for one second?

I hope it's okay.

I don't know what's happening,

but I organized

this for her 40th

birthday and she's...

not so happy tonight.

And I think she's missed you

and you were late and...

if you could just,

I don't know.

I'm not...

Just cherish her tonight.

It's her 40th birthday

and I'm stuck right here.

Understand?

I don't know if you get it.

I don't know

if you get it, right?

I'll be out there

in a little while.

I'm sorry, yeah.

No, don't.

I'm sorry myself.

- She loves you.

- And I love her, too.

Have no doubt

about it, okay?

Don't open the curtain.

You wanna open it up, baby.

You wanna open it up.

I don't wanna

look at that.

You're punishing

me for last night.

You're really upset

at me, aren't you, baby?

I'm upset because

I'm worried about you.

I see what this

is doing to you.

The look on your face

when you walked

into that party last night...

My God, it's heartbreaking.

That was yesterday, baby.

Today's okay.

- I know, but...

- Today's okay.

I took a blow yesterday

at the office.

You've taken

a lot of blows.

But who do you

think I'm doing this for?

Who do you think

I'm doing this for, my love?

Don't do this for me.

Well, I'm doing it for you

and Charley, too, baby.
