and I'm getting good pay

and nobody knows who I am.

Well, of course not.

They didn't take many pictures of you.

They didn't need me.

They had you, the great actor.

Now you're getting a lead

role after all those walk-ons.

Leave me alone.

Please, you know, it wasn't just us.

There were others.

Why do you, why do you think

it only happened to us?

It didn't just happen to us.

Same thing could've happened again.

There haven't been any in two months.

The experts say there won't be any.

Experts. How can anybody be an

expert on something they

know nothing about?

Stephen, I have a guy.

He's an older man, he's a friend.

He's very nice.

And he doesn't know anything about it.

Would you risk having a child with him?

We can't have any more children.

How did that happen?

I had it done.

You...

Sure don't take any chances, do you?

It's better like this, you know.

You, you could never forget.

You could never leave it alone.

It was the big event of your life.

Hey, come on now, Ellen.

What, are you trying to hurt me?

It's easy, go ahead.

Hurt you? I still have nightmares.

I can't bear the thought of him.

I can't bear the thought

of what might have been.

I thought I was gonna have

such a beautiful baby.

Anyway, he's alive somewhere

Because of you, Stephen.

You should be proud.

Are you proud?

I'm lonely.

Is he bugging you, Ellen?

No, I'm fine, thanks.

Enjoy the show, buddy.

Ellen, would the marriage

have lasted if the kid

hadn't been that way?

I guess not.

I guess whatever we had for

each other just wasn't enough.

Ordering a whiskey sour, a vodka tonic,

a Virgin Mary straight up.

This is my best joke in the

world, ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you very much, thank you.

Here, Chico.

This whole pier is getting to

be a meat market, isn't it?

Kids think they own this town.

They're okay.

How about a little

adult companionship, huh?

No, thanks.

Got a place right around the corner.

And I got some, some great

videotapes you might like.

You know, grown-up stuff.

Not tonight.

And I get the Disney channel.

Okay, you don't know what you're missing.

On the house.

You've got a great arm.

Yeah?

Thanks.

Wait 'til you see the rest of me.

Hey, Mister.

Thanks.

Is this for me?

Yeah.

Take it easy.

I'm not charging you by the hour.

Oh, you got a weekly rate?

Say, when was the last time

you made love to a woman, huh?

It shows, huh?

God, you're like a high-school kid.

I was good as a high-school kid.

Yeah?

And it's been about that long.

Since this is a such a
