There's my poor little cousin.

You trying to burp him
or break his neck?
God, I really can't
Well, I don't want him ending
up with shaken kid syndrome.
I might be
doing him a favor.
What does that mean'?
Huh?
You want this'?
Hmm?
Yeah, yum.
Look at the cartoons.
What's happening?
Look, he's thinking
about a bird.
He's flying like a bird.
Can you do that'?
Wham Lily.
Get off your ass and grab
your uncle's Epsom salts.
I got to go help out
your mama, little one.
Lily
You wanna hand me the salt'?
Sorry.
Hogan says the fish
don't die from pollution,
because when the algae blooms,
it sucks up all the oxygen.
And then the fish suffocate.
That's boring.
I don't think so.
You're such a baby.
I'm two months
older than you.
The train's coming.
Come on.
What are you doing?
Is baby scared'?
Do you want mommy
to sing you your song'?
Cut it out.
Hush little baby,
don't say-
Stop it!
Come here.
No.
Mommy's gonna buy you a
mockingbird Cut it out.
And if that
mockingbird don't sing
mommy's gonna
buy you a...?
Lily, is that you?
Yeah.
Oh, hey, Ali, how are you'?
Good.
Ifs Alison, Mom. We're not,
like, five years old anymore.
I didn't realize you guys were so grown up
now. She's staying for dinner too.
Oh, actually, I was gonna
go cook my dad dinner.
Oh, how is your dad'?
Oh, he's good.
Have you seen my black pumps?
Are they up your ass'?
No, Lily, I don't believe
they are up my ass.
You're such a spazz.
You interrupted Alison.
I'm sorry, Ali.
That's fine.
It's Alison, Mom.
Alison. Your dad
found some wires?
I was just trying to say he's good.
Same as always.
That's good. Well, tell
him I say hi. Yeah.
Was that so hard'?
Since when did you
become Miss Manners'?
For once someone's gotta
be civilized in this house.
Why don't you
help me find my shoes?
So I'm going to go meet
some friends at the bar.
And don't forget, we have your
appointment tomorrow. F*ck.
And we can't cancel
because I lose money
every time we don't
cancel 24 hours in advance.
It's such a waste
of time, Mom.
Don't say that.
You need to talk to someone, kiddo.
You need to.
And you're surely
not talking to me.
I talk to you every day.
I just want to understand
why you did it.
Did what, Mother'?
You know what.
I'm sorry, Mother,
but I surely don't.
Why did you
out your leg'?
I was shaving.
I guess I'm just
not that good at it yet.
Okay, your appointment
is tomorrow at 10.
I got you something'.
Yeah?
Ifs in your room.
Thanks.
Hey! Does this look okay'?
I have to get ready.
Can you give me some space to
fucking pee by myself, please?
You know, stop saying the word
"f*ck" so much. You sound...
Well, then will you
give me some privacy, Mom'?
I'm just asking,
does this look cute'?
I don't know. I don't know.
Does this dress look cute'?
You look old!
You should
take down your hair.
You seem bored.
I don't understand
why I'm being punished.
What makes you think
you're being punished?
I'm here, aren't I'?
Well, what would
you rather be doing
