What style do you paint?

He's a, um an abstract

abstract impressionist.

Expressionist, but that's fine.

When was your last show?

My last show was September 10th.

This Sept of this year?

I didn't hear about it.

2001. I'm sure you were at

a Hamptons function

snorting cocaine or on a yacht.

Okay, you know what?

I think you've had enough.

Yeah, not nearly.

You think you can maybe

stop being such a jerk

and just not embarrass me?

[MAN] No, Amy, it's okay,

don't worry about it.

It's no problem.

Actually, I

I think I was on a yacht

snorting cocaine in 2001.

[JAMES] See? What he said!

- I should go, actually.

- What are you talking about? Just stop.

I've got two children that my

life revolves around at home.

Remember? One's about this tall.

The other's this tall.

Jesus, James, come on,

Alexis is babysitting.

- It's fine.

- That's exactly why I need to get home.

- Excuse me.

- James.

James! James!

[EXHALES SHARPLY]

[HORN HONKS]

James!

What are you doing?

What does it look like

I'm doing?

I'm going home.

Go back to your party.

- Go be a social butterfly.

- Don't do this.

Do what? I'm going home.

I'll see you later.

No, the whole point

in being in a relationship

is that we actually

do things together.

Otherwise, what's the point?

We do do things together.

What are you talking about?

Look, lounging on your couch

with carryout watching a movie

once your kids go to sleep

has kind of lost its luster.

Look, I'm bored!

I'm sorry I bore you.

I just want to have fun,

and I don't really

want to play house anymore.

Okay, here it comes.

Go ahead, go ahead.

I can't do this anymore.

I tried.

I really did.

I'm just not in a place

for that kind of commitment.

Really, after the day I had,

you're gonna do this to me?

I really am sorry.

- [SIGHS]

- I'm sorry.

[SIGHS] Okay.

I have to talk to you girls

about something important.

Yeah, did you get dumped again?

What? No.

Who told you that?

So you're saying that you

and Amy are still together then.

If you must know, we decided

to part ways amicably.

- Mm.

- What's "amicably"?

It means we broke up

on good terms.

- It means she dumped him.

- Oh, stop it, Alexis.

It's not nice!

Are you okay, Daddy?

I'm fine, sweetheart, I'm fine.

Sometimes relationships

just don't work out.

Or in your case,

they never work out.

- Oh, shut up, stupid!

- Alexis

- She's the one that hit me.

- Put a cork in it, okay?

Nobody wants to hear

your comments.

- Yeah, put a cork in it.

- Grace, Grace, Grace!

You, too. Now, listen.

I have to go to Buffalo today.

- [GASPS] Can I come with you?

- You can't, sweetheart, you have school.

- That's not fair!
