It's mine!

- Believe that,Jack?

- Yes, I do.

- [ Children Arguing ]

- Ow!

- Freddy, stop it.

Mommy, Freddy

hit me in the arm.

Which arm, baby?

This one.

Jack, don't start.

Hold out your other arm

and let your brother hit you.

- Give me it!

-Jack, no!

Hold it out.

Whoever slaps you

on the right cheek,

turn the other to him also.

Hit her.

Don't be afraid.

- Jack, no!

- [ Pounds Table ]

- Hit her!

Isn't that great. Wonderful.

Great parenting,Jack.

Good job.

It's okay. Shh.

He didn't hurt her.

[ Sighs ]

There's no hitting

in this house.

Understand?

Get in the corner!

Do I put the chocolate chips

in now, Mommy?

That's right, honey,

and then stir.

[ Radio, Indistinct ]

Stir really quick.

Laura, put that back.

Come on.

When is Daddy coming?

Soon. Now let's

get this finished, honey.

- Mmm!

- None for you.

Mmm!

[ Chuckles ]

- No, Laura, stop it now.

- [ All Laughing ]

Next Friday, ask Lupe

to stay the night.

I can't stay, 'cause I invited

the company managers

over for dinner.

I fired her.

What, you fired her?

Why?

She made me feel

like a cripple.

Oh, goddamn it, Paul.

So, now who's going

to cook for you?

Who's going to clean up after you?

Who's going to take care of you?

Who?

I can do it for myself.

Oh,you can do it

by yourself.

I can't do it anymore, Paul.

Really, I can't.

[ Kissing ]

What are you doing?

I'm just-- What?

What does it feel like

I'm doing?

Don't. Don't.

You might hurt yourself.

I'm not gonna

hurt myself.

Besides, I need you to--

Huh?

I went to

a fertility clinic.

Oh good, more doctors.

Mary, I can't have

this discussion again.

No, this is a--

this is a specialist.

He said that with surgery,

I might get pregnant.

You need to donate

sperm and then--

Mary, no.

I could take care ofhim.

But I can't.

So what's the point?

This is what I most want

in the world.

Do it for me, please.

[ Machinery Whirring ]

This'll be $58.95.

[ Cash Register Beeping, Dings ]

[ Cashier ]

Thank you.

[ Bottles Clang Together ]

Find everything you need, sir?

I'll have, uh--

Oh, you know what?

I left my wallet.

[ No Audible Dialogue ]

[ Chattering, Laughter ]

[ Stereo ]

Gonna be hot.

Great.

When does my brother

plan to show up?

He said he'll be back

by 6:
00.

One hundred percent

pure golden lager.

You outta your mind?

[ Chuckles ]

Pretty much.

Oh, it's warm.

Okay, well, hey, if you wanna

drink lemonade all night--

No, no, no, no.

Just give it here.

Give me--

Katie? Laura?
