- Maybe you're just not cut

out for the insurance business.

- I didn't call anybody a name.

- I've got at

least three witnesses.

- Which.

She asked me to move a box,

there were two, I didn't know.

- Okay, sure.

I think it's fair to

say we gave you a shot.

Give my regards to your mother.

- Did you love her?

- That was a long time ago.

All right, Sam.

- Oh my god.

You'll never believe who

has been texting me all day.

I told him, I cannot talk

to him while I'm at work,

he's like, gets all

insecure if I'm not

texting him back.

He's such a girl.

- With the Malibu look,

we want the feeling

of a fresh kissed cheek,

and a smoldering lip.

- Frank's bringing

a friend tonight.

- Heaver liner says you

won't be carried away

on any old breeze.

It frames the look

for sophistication.

- You're going to

give him a chance.

- Another friend?

- Guys like prince charming

don't just show up.

They're not perfect

from the get go.

I have to stop smoking.

- We're quitting again?

Sandy gold tones and sunset

pink light up your eyes.

- We can't stay

roommates forever.

We have to be grownups

with men, husbands.

- As long as the numbers

on the bottom of the color

start with, with a...

- Don't you wanna meet somebody?

- I met somebody today.

- You did?

Where?

- On the train.

- You talked to

some guy on the train?

- For over an hour.

- Sounds like a guy

with time on his hands.

- He has a job.

- Did you give him your number?

- He's an architect,

he's German.

- Did he ask for your number?

- I'm gonna see him again.

- On the train.

- Yes.

- Just give

frank's friend a chance.

- You've been smoking.

- They're not mine.

- How did they get here?

- How did you get fired?

- What did mills tell you?

- Can I hear it from you?

- We didn't get along so well.

- What does that

mean, a man, a woman?

- What did mills tell you?

- May I hear it from you?

- She was wasting my time.

- Didn't you get

paid by the hour?

- She misheard me.

- What did you really say?

- I said, "which?"

There were two boxes,

I didn't know, which?

Date tonight?

- It's worse that you lie to me.

- It's not my fault,

mills said I'm just not cut out

for the insurance business.

- What, did they teach him

that in management school?

- Yes, I asked him.

- Your favorite, general Tso's.

- Where'd you get it?

- New price, my compliments.

- Tea, please?

- Oh, you've eaten here

before, I know you don't tip.

- I was thinking I

could stay here tonight,

I mean, we could watch

TV, the two of us.

- I'm going out.

- The girls?

- A friend.

- Why don't you just

call him your date?

- Why don't you go

eat your dinner.

- I could wait up.

- You know, there's a

reason you don't live here.

- What's that?

- Why don't you go

eat your dinner.

- No more jobs, mom.

- So, I'm supposed to

pay your rent for you?

You think you have

a right to that?

- Take them.

- They're not even mine.

Lock the door on your way out.

- Frank here's the best.

- Oh, guitar concert.

- And I play the bass, I'm

the bassist for the band.

- Yeah, he's the best bassist.

Dude.

The stadium is packed,

everyone's going nuts.

They're going crazy.

- And then they rush

on stage and they go

oh, that's the

greatest guitarist,

greatest guitarist ever.

- Oh, okay, now

we're breaking stuff.

Okay, just intermission.

- Oh, ladies on stage.

- The groupie comes in,

the groupie's then like

the main, like the fan,

and you're so sweaty.

- You're really

beautiful, you know that?

- I have a really

sensitive gag reflex.

- Hi, Sam, my name is Harvey,

I got a call from your

mother saying you might be

looking for work.

Why don't you.

Your mother said you

really loved old people,

is that true, Sam?

- You have a lot of pictures.

- Hm, that's nothing.

You see those?

Those are full of pictures

of me and my clients

taken over the years.

Most of our clients are old

bachelors, old spinsters,

childless, loveless.

I wouldn't recognize half

the people in these pictures

because that's the only

time they ever smiled.

Those are the ones that

mean the most to me.

You really have to love old

people to work in this field.

- I don't think I'd be here

today without old people.

- You're not really cut

out for this business.

- That's funny, most

people wait to fire me

before they tell me that.

- Most people are just

looking to fill their staff

as simply as possible.

- You and my mom dated, huh?

- A long time ago

she broke my heart.

- Yeah?

- Yeah, I was surprised

to hear from her.

- It's really something

else when they smile, huh?

- Yeah, it is.

- Maybe I could give it a try.

- This is

Harold Washington library,

state and Van Buren.

Transfer to red, blue, purple

and brown line trains here

at Washington library,

state and Van Buren.

Doors closing.

Transfer to...

This is an orange

line train to midway.

- Susan.

Welcome home.

- Hi.

- Do you know that frank

and I have been together

for a few years now,

I mean on and off,

but now we are back on

again, and I'm pregnant.

- With a baby?

- We were getting older, I mean

this could be my last chance

to do this, and I can't

explain it, you just see things

differently when

it happens to you.

- I guess I wouldn't know.

- Obviously, I mean, I

need to make some changes.

- Changes?

- Well, we're gonna

be moving in together
