Family Possessions Page #5

about me like I'm

in some devil cult.

Who cares what people

in this town think, Mom?

I don't get you.

Why-- why can't you

just dress nicely

and have nice friends,

be popular?

Look, she just moved to town,

okay,

and I thought it would be nice.

You know, I'm sorry. Okay.

I know you are a sweet soul.

You have such a good heart...

and such a tiny brain just

like your stupid-ass father.

Because he took in every stray

that he encountered too

and that's why he left us for

that skank-ass b*tch stripper.

You know, I heard she

had a blue waffle.

You should google it!

Mom?

Mom!

What did I tell you

about rough housing inside?

-There's something in my room.

-What?

Look.

It's on the other side

of my bed. It was a...

-A something.

-Well, if it comes back,

maybe you can have it unpack

your room.

-But Mom--

-No, no moms, no buts,

no "deez nuts". I'm not kidding,

you're not leaving this room

until it's unpacked.

I want all

of these boxes put away.

Rachel, your grandmother

wasn't in a nursing home.

She was in an asylum.

Go to the address, you'll see.

Hey honey, how did it go?

-Huh?

-With the job search.

Oh, um, yeah, it went fine.

I put an application

in at Crave.

-God damn it.

You know, I told your brother

about playing ball

in this house.

You go up there

and tell him

that if I hear one more thing

hit the floor,

he is gonna be the next thing

to hit the floor.

Please.

Okay.

Andy, you little roach,

what did Mom tell you

about playing with that ball

in the house?

Yeah, he was, uh,

really impressed

with what I had to say.

I don't know if it's for sure,

but... I think I might be

the one.

Yeah? That sounds great, honey.

You are the smartest accountant

I know. Right, guys?

Well, once I get on

with this firm,

everything's gonna change

for us.

It's a great opportunity

and I can only move up

once I get on.

That sounds great.

Finally, some good news

for once.

Yeah, Dad, that's really great.

Thanks, Rach.

So, um...

Rachel put an application

in at Crave today.

Oh really? Well, maybe

if I get this job,

I can help you get a car.

I-- I know only having one's

been hard on you guys, so...

Yeah, Dad,

that would be amazing!

And do you know what else

you can help me with?

-What?

-Oh and Mom, you can help me

-with this too.

-Yeah, okay, what?

You two can help me understand

why grandmother was actually

in a mental asylum

instead of a nursing home

like you've told me

all these years.

Rachel, I don't know

what you're talking about.

Did you not think it would

eventually come out

considering everyone

in this damn town

thinks she was a witch?

-Grandma was a witch?

-No, Andy, of course not.
