Hey!
Soapsuds all around
Little bubbles on the ground
Rub a dub a dub
in her little tub
W-What's the condition?
Jesus, Richie, I c--
I can't remember.
God if you-if you pay
attention in class...
You hated school.
What? No, I didn't, I liked it.
I liked school
but-but I had to quit,
we were poor
you know, I had to work.
I was lucky.
I was lucky. I-
I had some talent.
You know, I-I was a-
I was a--
I was a very promising
young actress.
Oh, God. Oh, God, if you could've
seen me in some of those shows...
Let me show you a couple of
pieces but this is-this--
-Again?
-this is from Dulcey, okay?
You know, I know I
showed you these pieces
but I never know if you're
paying any attention.
I wore this in Dulcey, look at
that, it's not real, but, you know.
-I've seen it.
-Isn't it beautiful?
God, look at that, it's--
let me show you this uh...
Wait, did I show you the, uh,
the piece from the musical?
-Yes.
-from--okay?
I don't know if I did,
I had an incredible voice,
you know, I almost
got the lead in that show
and the-the girl who
got the part...
she was fat.
I had a much better
voice than her.
Is that where you met Dad?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah, your-your real
father was a drummer.
He played jazz music.
God, he had perfect rhythm.
Oh! It was quite amazing.
And he also had black hair and...
he had...he had green eyes...
-Oh.
-Where is my father?
My real father?
I told you many times.
Gone.
A rainy day at the beach.
Time off for me.
Nobody swims during
a lightning storm.
I guess this is as good
a time as any to tell you.
I'm having an affair with Ginny.
Humpty's wife.
Let me fill you in on that.
It started at the
beginning of the summer.
At that point, I didn't know
either Humpty or Ginny.
I saw the harbor lights
They only told me
we were parting
The same old harbor lights
That once brought you to me
How could I help
if tears were starting
Goodbye to tender nights
And then, at the end of a
cloudy day, it started to rain.
And the last few stragglers were
packing up and leaving the beach.
And suddenly, this
kind of interesting woman
comes walking along
the water's edge.
And the dramatist in me
sensed she was in
some kind of trouble
because her body language
read "vulnerable"
and "desperate."
Miss...
you can't be out here right now.
Everybody has to go in.
We're expecting lightning storms.
What?
Yeah, we gotta-we gotta go in.
Really?
Yeah, we gotta go in.
Yeah, I've...I've been
all over the world.
I went to NYU and
right when I started, boom.
