Feast of Love Page #5

We had a deal.

Well, that was then and this is now.

I'm so sorry, Bradley,

(DOG BARKS)

But Billy loves the dog

and we love the dog.

Don't talk to me about love, okay?

My wife left me.

- I know.

- Okay? For another woman.

I'm alone, okay?

I want a dog. I need that dog!

Brad... Bradley!

My heart goes out to you, sweetie.

I think Kathryn is a selfish b*tch.

I think what you should do

is go straight to the pound

- and pick yourself out another dog.

- We had a deal!

I know. Well, I have to take it back.

It's null and void.

Aggie, I need that dog, okay? Please. I...

This is not a joke.

I'm talking about my stability, here.

- I know. I'm really sorry, Bradley, but...

- No...

As Billy's mother,

my responsibility is to him first, okay?

- Good luck.

- No. No!

Aggie!

(DOG CONTINUES BARKING)

(WHIMPERING)

(WHISPERING) Hi, Bradley.

Hi. Oh, God. How you doing?

Huh?

I missed you. I missed you so much.

Uncle Bradley?

Hey, how you doing, Billy?

Come over here.

Come on.

I wanted to have a little talk with you.

How are you?

- Mom's not here.

- No, I know. I know.

I just... I don't know if you've heard or not,

but your Aunt Kathryn

has gone away to a place

where boys aren't allowed.

And I'm all alone in the world, kiddo,

and I need...

- I need Bradley Jr.

- Who?

- Bonkers.

- Who's that?

- Bingo, the dog. I need this dog.

- But he's mine.

I know, I know, and someday,

when you get a little older,

we're going to have a long conversation

about the nature of deals, you and I, okay?

But I'll tell you what.

Right now, look at this.

I want you to go buy yourself

a brand new dog.

On me. Okay?

But that's not enough.

- Yeah, it is.

- No, it's not.

It's... Okay, okay, okay.

- You can buy a horse with that.

- It's still not enough.

AGATHA:
Billy?

- Mom!

- Okay, okay.

Is that Uncle Bradley's car?

I'm keeping the leash.

I'm taking this.

(HALLELUJAH PLAYING)

The newspaper said there was gonna be

a meteor shower tonight.

So...

I figured this would be the best place

to see it.

Hey, you know how

when people are super rich,

they got those hallways at the front

of the house, you know, by the front door?

OSCAR:
And they put those

grandfather clocks there and...

- You mean like a foyer.

- Yes! Yes, like a foyer.

All right. It's the future, okay?

So picture this, Oscar of the future,

and I'm heading home from whatever

cool thing it is that I decide to do.

- Where am I?

- You? You're in the house.

- We live together?

- Of course we live together.

What do you think?

- What kind of house?

- Big.

I go get the mail out of the box,

and we've got these huge f***ing bills.

Never seen anything like it.
