Music From Another Room Page #4

And what's the event?

She didn't say. She just called

up and ordered the cake.

- Nothing written on it?

- No.

- Nothing?

- Nothing.

You don't want to take it?

No, I'll take it.

It's my chance to meet them.

- Yes, coincidence.

- Exactly!

I can deliver the cake.

I recognize the house,

see the name on the door...

...introduce myself.

This is your chance to

meet the young lady.

Yeah.

Anna.

What is she? She's, you know,

not an astronaut or anything, is she?

- She's just a woman, right?

- Correct.

Right.

The world's full of women.

- More than men.

- Exactly! No big deal.

I helped deliver her.

What's, you know, the big deal?

Two normal people

being introduced.

Take all the mystery out of this situation,

and then we can just be friends.

Right.

Okay. Here.

Give me the cake.

Hi.

I'm Danny Kowalski.

I delivered you,

and now I'm delivering you a cake.

Hi.

Remember me?

I'm Danny Kowalski.

I remember you.

I really remember you.

It's me,

Danny Kowalski. Remember?

Hi.

I'm Danny.

- Hi!

- Hi, honey.

I'm glad you're here.

My God.

- You shouldn't move.

- Here, I'll put this... Is this cold?

- Now that blood will never come out.

- What happened?

- The delivery boy fell off his bike.

- I'm all right, really.

- I have your cake somewhere.

- That must be the cake I ordered.

What's the occasion?

- Are you okay?

- He'll probably sue.

- You think so?

- I would.

- I'll call an ambulance.

- No!

- Keep still, you idiot!

- I'm all right.

No. Really. Thank you.

I'm all right.

I'm fine.

Hello.

My name's Danny.

Danny Kowalski.

Oh, no.

Here.

Watch his head.

- Give him room. Just give him some space.

- Let's get him inside.

Hello.

No, wait.

Stop screaming!

Anna, would you

fetch that for me?

- Billy, come out of the refrigerator.

- Where's that beer I bought?

- You drank it, Billy.

- Hello.

Daniel!

There you are!

- Are you feeling better?

- Much better, thank you.

- Everybody...

- Hi.

Listen.

This is the man-child...

...who thrust these

very hands...

...deep inside my

reluctant womb...

...and wrestled...

...until he had

wrenched life itself...

...from my unwilling loins.

- Come here!

- That's extraordinary!

That's the retard!

You're the retard.

Here she is.

- Anna, come here.

- I thought you were kidding.

Isn't she magnificent?

Mother, please.

Hi.

Nice to meet you.

Last time we met,

you were covered in afterbirth.

- There's a line I bet you never

heard before. - Danny, this is Eric.

Danny is the man responsible

for bringing me into the world.

I'm very grateful. It'd be a less

interesting place without her.

- Think nothing of it.

- Glad you're feeling better.
