- I'm running for mayor.
- You look gorgeous.
That's true. I want you to meet Meredith.
Hi.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Hi. Hi.
- What is going on with him?
- All hail. The prodigal son returns.
Hey, Mama. I found your laundry here.
A big sack of filthy Christmas laundry,
just for you.
Hey.
- Where's your husband?
- What husband?
That husband. He'll be here on Christmas.
Queen bee, how are you doing?
- So, where's Dad?
- He ran away. Joined the circus.
- A better circus.
- Yeah, less clowns.
Sorry. We might have some glue.
No, it's OK.
I think I have another pair for that outfit.
It's a good color.
Excuse me.
You need a hand with that?
Now, don't dilly-dally there, pretty lady.
We're all gonna be down here
talking about you.
Do you remember Miss Lewin?
Remember her?
- Second grade?
- Yeah.
- Wait, the one without the lips?
- Exactly. Man, I was so into her.
- You are a freak.
- Yeah.
- She's sweet, right. Incredible.
- Thank you, sir.
- I mean, doesn't she seem incredible?
- Yeah, it appears that she is incredible.
So, Everett, where'd you find her?
Hong Kong, last spring.
Well, actually, over on Kowloon side,
not Hong Kong Island.
Although we were both staying there -
on Hong Kong Island -
Everett at the Grand Hyatt,
I was at the Mandarin.
But we were introduced
in the lobby of the Peninsula.
That's on Kowloon side.
I was there for
this post-postunification conference,
and I had a meeting over at the Peninsula,
and there I am, crossing the lobby,
and who do I see but Rachel Graham?
- Who?
- What were you wearing?
It had been, what? 10 years?
More? God, almost 16. Andover.
I'm with Rachel, and here comes Everett.
I don't know him, Rachel does.
They got their masters together. You hadn't
seen each other in, what? Eight years?
- The point is, Everett was lost. Remember?
- What?
- How you were lost?
- I was pretending.
He was on his way to take some boat to...
What was the name of that place?
Lantau. Lantau Island.
Right. Some pilgrimage
he'd gotten into his head,
on his way to see some Buddhist statue
at some monastery.
It's one of the largest metal buddhas
in the world.
- Metal buddha.
- Fascinating.
- You can stay at this monastery. Actually...
share meals with the monks.
But they've taken a vow of silence.
A vow of what?
Your tie's crooked.
- Incredible. How long were you there?
- Well, he never made it.
One thing led to another,
Rachel suggested lunch, we got to talking.
Everett, what did you two talk about?
I don't remember.
- It's just a little tight.
- Will you take that goddamn tie off already?
Please. Of course you remember.
