Oh.

Did you check with the office?

Did you check with Admissions?

You know, I... I didn't.

Well, I did.

Um, I just, um... just

to find the classroom.

I-I... it was just

a spur-of-the-moment kind of thing.

Well, this is a college.

They're not very spontaneous.

Right.

Yeah.

Are you all right?

I'm so sorry. I just didn't...

I didn't think this through.

Well, no worries. I mean, the next

semester starts in January or...

- a couple months.

- No, I-I... no...

What?

You sure... are you okay?

No, it's just a...

an empty-nest kind of a thing.

I-I just wanted to keep busy.

Well, kids, huh?

They're just one long grieving process.

You know, where's my baby?

Where's my kindergartner?

Where's my little boy?

Exactly. Well, you know...

It's okay. It's okay.

- I... this is...

- It's okay.

- It's okay.

- I shouldn't have come.

No, it's all right.

No, no. I... this...

this isn't real.

- What?

- It's just not real.

You're not...

Wait.

Hmm.

Mm.

Yeah, right.

I understand.

Well, I'll see you Monday.

You're back.

Yeah.

Are you gonna run away on me again?

I might.

Understandable.

I mean, look at me.

I'm one scary dude.

Listen, I'm sorry.

I think I was a little

strange the other day.

Yeah, you were a little emotional.

I was.

Well, it's a strange time.

Kids leaving home...

it's got to be strange.

Mm.

Yeah.

Are you married?

Um... no.

Gone.

Gone?

Yeah. He left me.

Just up and left?

Brutal.

- Yeah.

- Sorry.

You go on, I guess.

I guess.

My wife left me.

Oh.

Ten years ago.

Found somebody else,

tells me he's the love of her life.

Ouch.

Right?

I mean, it's been a decade,

and I still feel it.

Well...

Listen, I... um, do you do

anything outside of school...

you know, like, uh,

private students?

What are we talking, lessons?

Yes.

Exactly. Lessons.

Well, uh, I-I don't usually.

Oh.

Um, well, listen,

I-I have taken classes before.

This is... I'm not a

complete amateur.

My studio's not really

set up for that.

Oh.

Well, wait. You could

come to my house.

Right?

Okay?

Uh, I could, uh,

give you my number,

uh, and I'll write it

down for you here, right?

And then you could, you

know, think about it.

Um... I'll write my name down,

and you could, you know,

think about how much

you would charge,

the whole bit, all right?

So anyway, thanks.

Thanks.

Hi.

Hi.

Wow. I can't believe you're here.

Why wouldn't I be?

Come on in.

Thanks.

Wow.

Beautiful house.

Thank you.

Who's the architect?

Uh, my husband, actually.

And the Ruscha?

So are you the art collector?

Uh, no, that was him too.

Well, good for you.

He splits, you get the

house and all the artwork.

There's some more in here if
