uh, around two o'clock.

Uh, two, two...

Um...

Yeah. That-

that should work out fine.

Oh, great.

I'll see you then.

All right, bye-bye.

( sighs )

( car starts )

Aaah!

Aahh aaah aaah aah!

Aaah aah aaah aah!

Aaah!

( breathing heavily )

You're alive.

You're alive.

These people, I don't

know who they are. Those...

They say he'll get worse.

What's wrong with him?

( chuckles )

According to harry?

Nothing.

According to the doctors

he has Alzheimers disease.

I make his breakfast,

so it'd be lunch,

Maybe dinner, depending on

what time I get back. Mm-hmm.

Don't worry about his bath. I'll

take care of that, unless you-

Oh. (laughs)

No, that's...

That's cool.

It's-really, it's just...

Keeping an eye on things.

Okay.

Harry:
Oughta be able

to figure 'em out...

Harry.

...Too damn many of them.

Harry?

This is Sophie.

Okay. I guess I'll let you two

get to know each other.

Good luck.

( door opens, closes )

Harry?

Can I use your restroom?

Upstairs at

the end of the hall.

# ( music box plays )

( music continues )

Bathroom's

the next one down!

( music box off )

sorry.

( music box resumes )

Cheers.

( chuckles )

Apart from the gimp,

how ya doin'?

'07 was so much better.

I heard about the appeal.

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Benefits denied.

Yep, it's been

a year and a half,

And everybody in

this gossipy f***in' town

Is still saying that

Andy killed himself.

I don't think they... They

all think that, ya know?

Well, the insurance company

thinks that.

Well, that's what they do,

these insurance companies.

I mean, they just...

They drag these things out.

You know, Steven, I was driving

by the office the other day,

Mm-hmm.

And I couldn't help but notice

My name was still on the sign.

I was promised

a monthly payment,

By you, by the bank,

There was a whole schedule

worked out. Remember?

We're just way past time,

okay?

Andy's interest in the firm

falls to me, right?

I'd like to help you,

really I would, but...

So...

What are you saying?

You just have to be patient.

( humorless laughter )

just a little while longer.

Sure.

Another year?

What is it?

Huh?

Um, I'm in a little bit

of trouble here, Steven.

What kind of trouble?

Uh, just, um, behind on

the mortgage a little bit,

And the creditors are-

are circling.

I mean, I guess I could, uh...

Could sell the house, uh,

or, I don't know... what, um-

F***ing foreclosure.

How far behind are you?

Three months.

Let me talk to some

people, and, uh.. Who? Who?

Who can you talk to?

I know some people

down at the bank.

I'll go chat with them and we'll

see if we can figure this out, okay?

Don't worry.

All right?

What are you doing?
