adjustment for me

having him so close.

It's nothing I ever anticipated,

okay?

It's gonna take me some time.

Okay.

[scoffs]

[sighs]

How often do you

and your wife have sex?

Not as often as I'd like. Why?

How often do you fantasize

about someone else

when you and your wife have sex?

Not as often as I should. Why?

I've never been in

a relationship for so long.

I don't know how you married

guys do it, day in, day out.

Yeah, that's, uh--

I feel like I'm turning to dust.

That's how it is sometimes.

This is your son?

Yes.

He's cute.

Does he have a girlfriend?

No. Not really.

Not, uh, not yet.

The B story.

It doesn't work.

I've already written it, Garrett.

Rewrite it.

It sucks.

He overdoses on painkillers.

That is boring.

I mean, I've seen that.

I've done that.

Surprlse me.

He gets high.

He runs over someone. Paralyzes them.

Breaks their leg. I don't know.

Shock me.

[piped in music]

(Ernie)

Where are we?

We're at the doctor's, Dad.

My gums hurt.

I gotta see a dentist.

Well, I'll call mine.

We'll see when there's an opening.

Look, they're bleeding.

I've gotta see one right away.

I'll call when we get home.

And I gotta see a urologist,

too, you know.

I got, I got a rash on

the head of my penis, I think.

My, my balls are unusually

tender and--

Dr. Elias can look at them.

Is he a specialist?

He's a geriatric internist.

Well, I wanna see

a specialist, okay?

And I gotta see a cardiologist

too with this arrhythmia.

They're gonna have

to up my digitalis.

One thing at a time, okay?

I can't do everything.

I gotta--

I gotta pee.

Dad, I wish you wouldn't

do that. I can take you.

If I gotta wear these

f***in' things--

I might as well use 'em.

[moans]

[sucks in deep]

[exhales]

You're here late.

I have to rewrite

the whole B story.

Apparently, overdosing on drugs

and falling out a

window is too soft.

Isn't that sort of the whole point

of the episode?

The great downward spiral?

Yeah, it was.

Now it's incest.

[laughs]

Takes the edge off.

No, thanks.

I like my edge.

[laughs]

Why are you still here?

Oh, my ex is moving out.

Finally.

It's better if I'm not there.

[horn blarlng In dlstance]

How long have you

guys been together?

Too long.

Almost a year.

Hmm. Is he a writer?

Actor.

Ooh.

[chuckles]

Never again.

Yeah.

They're so f***ing needy.

How long have you and

your wife been together?

Uh, 19 years.

Wow!

Nineteen years?

Yeah, we met in college.

That is quite an accomplishment

in this business.

Yeah.

Two kids?

Three. My father-in-law's

the youngest.

Oh, that sucks.

Yes, it does, actually.

[laughs]

I mean, it's one thing if it's your parent,

but taking care of someone else's.
