Synopsis: After falling off the roof at a New Year's Eve house party, Owen decides that it's time to make some wholesale changes in his life. Over the next year, he quits drinking, re-enters his estranged son's life, reignites old friendships, and falls in love with Vera, a bank teller and fellow divorcee...all in an attempt to replace members of his family who he'd lost prematurely. Owen, a vending machine proprietor, soon finds that sometimes in life, you just need a little change.

- They're okay.

- You think everyone's okay.

But I didn't see any

of your friends

in the waiting room with you.

- I did notice that.

- Well, you should

give that more

than just a passing thought.

- I got that.

- All right, thanks.

- Here ya go.

- Hi.

- Hey.

- Think this is yours.

- Ah, sh*t.

Thanks.

How's it goin' Todd?

- About the same.

- I was just takin'

him for a walk,

and I thought I'd

check up on you.

How's your arm?

- Still broken.

- You need any help

with anything?

- No, I'll be fine.

- Hey, Pete!

Hey!

Wake up!

Hey, Pete!

You wanna be the first

one to sign my...

- Oh sh*t.

- Well, look at that!

- Let's not get all excited.

- Hey!

- Pam, Get outta my way

I'm gonna smash Pete

in the head with this.

- Go home!

It's not like we were

married or anything.

You're just someone I

like to get stoned with.

- Oh, that was it?!

- Yeah, that's it!

I'm with Pete now.

- You are?

- F*** you both.

- Look c'mon, let's talk about

this rationally. C'mon.

- Yeah, okay.

- Oh my god!

- That's the rational

thing to do!

What?!

- Get outta here!

What the f*** is

wrong with you?!

Sh*t!

- I deserved that.

- Just put your head back.

Ooo, sh*t he f***ed you up.

Yeah, its broken.

- Yeah.

- Hi. Owen?

- Who's this?

- Oh, it's, it's Vera.

Is it too late to call you?

- Vera?

- Yeah.

- No. I'm up. What's goin' on?

- I feel silly but you

told me to call you so...

- I did?

- Yeah.

- I did.

Don't feel silly.

What's goin' on?

- Okay, well, um, good night.

- Good night.

I was thinkin' we should

make a plan to...

Hello?

- That looks like it hurt.

- Not really.

Kind of.

- The more things change.

- Cindy, don't start, all right.

Oh, here's your check.

So, we can avoid that fight.

- I've been meaning to

tell you something.

- Huh?

What?

Hey!

- Hi.

- Ready to go?

- I guess.

- Sweetheart, why

don't you go wait

in the van for your dad, okay?

He'll be right out.

- What's that about?

- I've been offered a

position in San Diego.

Obviously, I would

take Adam with me.

- San Diego?

That's like on the other

side of the world.

I'd never see him.

- You barely see him as it is.

And even when you do, you're

usually half in the bag.

It wouldn't be until

the end of the year.

I just wanted to let you know

that I'm thinking about it.

- You can't just take my son

away from me like that.

- Actually, I can.

- Do you wanna get the

lawyers involved again?

Is that it?

- Right. Because a judge

would rule in favor

of a father who drunkenly falls

off rooftops at parties.

- I think you're being

incredibly selfish.

- Well, now you

know how it feels.

- So, what's the verdict?

- They're like wearing pillows.
