(MUSIC PLAYING)
Can I help you find something, sir?
Um...
Yeah, do you have any black napkins?
I've been looking all over.
Black napkins. I don't think so.
If you don't like White,
this is a beige one.
They have to be black.
That's more of a Halloween item.
You might want to try a party store.
Hi.
Um...
You guys ran out last night so...
Oh, that was so thoughtful of you.
Thank you. Thank you. Come on in.
- Maury, how are you holding up?
- Hi. Uh...
- You know.
- Yeah.
Noah, come on in. Come on in.
WOMAN:
I just don't know what I would do.I keep thinking about her sweet little face
in Mommy and Me.
Just the most perfect little girl.
- Beth... Just so dear.
- WOMAN:
No, of course not.- MAN:
Is that turkey?- It's turkey pastrami.
- Pastrami turkey?
- Yeah.
The pink one is turkey pastrami.
WOMAN:
Just the mostlovely baby of them all.
What a dear child.
It's hard to understand.
Zach, I'm so sorry.
Um...
Thank you, Mr. Levin.
She was a special girl.
JUDY:
Kyle, we're back.- I'm gonna take a nap.
- NOAH:
Okay.Hey. you okay?
Yeah, I'm fine.
How did it go?
What kind of a question is that?
Zachy.
I mean, is that really the problem?
Is it the garden or is it you guys?
(TALKING INDISTINCTLY)
NOAH:
Well, it's not just beaches there.They have...
- it's islands. Two islands?
- There's mostly... Well, the Turks.
- And then, there's the Caicos.
- The Caicos.
We don't have to go to both.
We can just go to Turks.
You know what?
We don't have to decide tonight,
- JUDY:
You'll think about it.NOAH:
We know it's been a tough time.But Turks and Caicos?
KYLE:
I talked to Sam Hirsch today,and he said, "The reason I've been..."
(CAR LOCK BEEPS)
PEARLINE:
I'm getting out of here.MAURY:
Pearline, where are you going?- Geenie gave you the day off.
- Don't go in there, Zachery.
Pearline!
- Can we please talk?
PEARLINE:
I've had enough, you see.- Enough. No more...
- If this is a bad time, then I think...
Zach, can you believe this?
You want to come inside?
Yikes!
I just don't understand, you know.
- We gave her the day off.
- MAURY:
Right?Now, of all times.
- It's just not like her.
- She's lost her mind clearly.
- GEENIE:
She can't leave us, not now.- (STUTTERS)
She needs a break. I don't know.
Um, what are you doing here?
I'm just organizing Beth's stuff, you know.
- ZACH:
Oh, wow.GEENIE:
Pictures.I really didn't take enough pictures.
So foolish.
Eating Jell-O.
Oh, we used to eat Jell-O all the time
when Beth was little.
We ate a lot of Jell-O.
Yeah, we did.
I can't even focus anymore.
I'm a mess, Mr. Slocum.
You can call me Maury.
Okay.
(CHUCKLES)
Maury-
I think I have something
that might help us both.
Geenie's been keeping really busy
with all this cleaning.
(SIGHS) It's therapeutic, I guess.
And you still have your band, right?
Oh, we broke up. I mean, I left them.
Ah.
You know, I'll never play music again.
(SIGHS)
(INHALES)
(STAMMERING) Oh, I'm okay.
Come on.
- Well, I don't...
- Take it.
You're calling me Maury.
(CHUCKLES)
- Can I tell you something, Maury?
- Sure.
Beth and I were having troubles
before she...
I know.
She told me.
- Really?
- Look, the last time I spoke to her,
I was telling her
she had to go to the dentist,
and she told I was being annoying.
That's the last thing she said to me.
"Dad, you're being annoying."
Now, I could choose to remember that
for the rest of my life
as being emblematic
of my connection with my daughter.
