Blue Valentine Page #6

Synopsis: Dean Pereira and Cindy Heller Pereira are a young, working class married couple - Dean currently working as a painter, and Cindy working as a nurse in a medical clinic - with a young daughter named Frankie. Despite their relatively tender ages, they are both ravaged by the life they've eked out together and by the experiences they've had leading into their marriage. Dean, a high school drop out, comes from a broken home, where he never really had a mother figure. He never saw himself getting married or having a family despite falling in love at first sight with Cindy. He doesn't have any professional ambition beyond his current work - which he enjoys since he feels he can knock off a beer at 8 o'clock in the morning without it affecting his work - although Cindy believes he has so much more potential in life.

Head over heels.

Falling in love with him.

Chapter 11... "

Hi.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- I want a cigarette.

- No, Gramma, it's bedtime.

You're in bed.

You can't have a cigarette now, OK?

Do you want me

to keep reading or are you tired?

I need a cigarette!

Excuse me.

Can I talk to you for a second?

Why?

You think I stole that money, don't you?

- Yeah, you do.

- No.

Look, I've stolen money before, OK?

I know what it's like to get busted.

- That's what it feels like.

- OK.

I didn't steal it. I got a job.

- OK? This is my job.

- All right.

- All right? I make money.

- OK, I got it.

Money I can take girls out

on dates with.

Just so you know.

Good to know. OK.

- What's your name?

- Go away.

- "Go away"?

- Go away.

That's a weird name.

OK, hold on a second.

I wanna give you something.

Look at that. That's my business card.

I don't have a phone...

or a phone number,

but if you call

this number right here...

...and then you ask for me...

- ... they'll tell me you called.

- Great.

Who should I say is calling?

Whoa!

Where are we, huh?

We're inside a robot's vagina.

Was this the only one

that they had?

I told you, you know...

they had Cupid's Cove or this.

You want me to see

if we can get Cupid's Cove?

I'm gonna make a drink.

There's no windows.

Cool bed, huh? Check this out.

Whoa!

The bed turns.

Hey, did you see this?

Hey.

Hey, look at me.

I don't think that there's a fridge.

Hey, that's how they laugh

in the future. Like this...

Oh, God.

I thought the whole point of coming here

was to have a night without kids.

Hello? Yeah, hold on.

Here, sweetheart, it's your mommy.

She wants to talk to you.

- Hi, Mom.

- Hi, sweetie!

Yes.

OK, honey. Don't forget

to go potty before you get into bed, OK?

Bye... Bye, I love you!

Frankie, this is

how they laugh in the future.

Try it.

Huh?

Frankie, are you tooting?

Is that you tooting?

Frankie... I can hear...

I love you like crazy. I gotta go, OK?

Kiss, kiss.

Bye-bye.

What are you doing?

What? What's it look like I'm doing?

Getting all wet and naked.

I'm gonna go order some food.

Do you want some?

You know what I like.

Can you close the door?

Oh.

- What are you doing?

- What does it look like I'm doing?

All right.

Come up.

Come up.

What are you so grumpy about?

Oh, I don't know. I don't know why.

- Do you want a drink?

- Yes, please.

- Hey, how are you?

- Fine, thank you.

You're Gramma.

It's great to meet you.

Cindy, come on.

Could you talk to me

for five minutes, please?

I don't want to talk to you anymore.

Gramma, you know you have

an amazing granddaughter?

- Oh, of course I do.

- She's unbelievable.

I got these for you.
