NICHOLAS:
Which grad-school?
Conrad smiles. The brothers take each other in for a
moment. Long moment. They're a bit stunned to be reunited.
NICHOLAS:
You look good.
CONRAD:
So do you. And to think I was
worried...
NICHOLAS:
About me?
CONRAD:
How long's it been? Since mom
died... four years? How are you?
NICHOLAS:
Never better.
CONRAD:
Elizabeth?
NICHOLAS:
Divorced. Remarried to some
pediatrician or gynecologist, or
pediatric gynaecologist, in Sausalito.
CONRAD:
Too bad, I liked her. So, you're all
alone in the House of Pain?
NICHOLAS:
I redecorated. What about you?
CONRAD:
Nowhere in particular. Don't you
keep track of my whereabouts anymore?
NICHOLAS:
Connie... what brings you here? Is
everything alright?
CONRAD:
Yeah.
NICHOLAS:
You need anything?
CONRAD:
No.
NICHOLAS:
Really?
CONRAD:
I don't need anything from you. I
was laying on a beach somewhere in
Spain, naked, and, it hit me --
Nickie's birthday. So, here I am,
four layovers, twenty-seven hours
flying and one donkey ride later.
Not necessarily in that order.
Conrad drops an envelope on the table.
CONRAD:
For you.
NICHOLAS:
You shouldn't have.
Nicholas opens it, takes out a sappy, Hallmark B-day card.
A BUSINESS CARD falls out. Nicholas picks it up...
CONRAD:
What do you get for the man who has
just slightly more than everything?
The card:
"Consumer Recreation Services." With aPHONE NUMBER and ADDRESS below.
CONRAD:
Call that number.
NICHOLAS:
"Consumer Recrreation Services."
What, do they make golf clubs?
CONRAD:
Trust me. Call that number.
NICHOLAS:
Why?
CONRAD:
They make your life fun. Their only
guarantee is you will not be bored.
NICHOLAS:
Fun?
CONRAD:
You've heard of it. You've seen
other people having it. They're an
entertainment service, but more than
that.
NICHOLAS:
This isn't an escort service?
CONRAD:
It's a profound life experience.
NICHOLAS:
Like a stroke?
CONRAD:
Call them. Trust me.
The waitress shows up with Nicholas' iced tea, spills some.
Nicholas blots it up with a napkin.
WAITRESS:
Sorry. Let me get you another
napkin.
NICHOLAS:
I'll be fine... if we could just...
She moves off as Nicholas raises a finger to order, ignored.
CONRAD:
Tell me you'll call.
NICHOLAS:
Okay.
CONRAD:
Will you?
NICHOLAS:
I said I would...
CONRAD:
But, will you?
NICHOLAS:
Are you still on mediction?
CONRAD:
(taken aback)
Why would you say that?
The waitress arrives.
WAITRESS:
Ready to order, gentlemen?
NICHOLAS:
(ignores, to Conrad)
I didn't mean it like it sounded...
CONRAD:
I'm not on anything anymore. I'm not
even seeing a shrink. I'm happy.
(notices waitress,
turning to her)
Do you mind... ?!
