Oh my god.

Alright.

I'm out.

Have a good day.

Hey.

Come here.

Should I put more of this?

Yeah.

- Like one more?

- That's good, yeah.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

Yeah genie likes this.

Really?

She likes the bread.

Here's this guy.

Like these seed things.

Yeah it's got

the seeds in the crust.

She's sick.

Genie has dementia and

other issues, the

dementia goes in and out.

It ain't all roses.

You're so sweet.

No.

Yes.

No, here get it.

Hey, arty,

can I use the bathroom?

Uh huh.

It's through the TV room.

Thank you.

- I think so.

- I just need one button.

- I like that.

- One button to turn it off.

It is one button now.

On that main remote.

Well how come

it's still like snow?

Thank you.

What?

- It's still snow.

- That's 'cause the cable's

not going on, so you have to,

you have to switch it to

the cable at the top, okay?

Martin, do you have a sister?

- Um no.

- We'd like to say

a little grace.

I saw a picture.

- If you'd like.

- No.

- Gabi.

- Sure.

We thank you god, for this food

we are about to eat, and

for the company of friends

and for all of the

blessings you bestow upon us

every day, thank you god.

Where's Bethany?

No, this is gabi, mom.

Gabriela.

Bethany and Martin

divorced several years ago.

This Martin's new girlfriend.

She's from Spain.

Barcelona.

Have your special bread.

With the seeds in the crust.

Yeah, I know.

I like those seeds in the crust.

How long were you married?

Eight months.

I don't wanna talk

about it please.

Silent treatment

the whole way home

and now you're gonna

dig up this sh*t.

Your mom said where is Bethany.

I think I should know

something about that.

She made a mistake, okay.

Her brain's

deteriorating, she can't

figure a lot of stuff out

you just have to get past it.

Yeah, but that's

the other thing, I know that,

I know that, because

your dad has talked to me

about that today.

You have not said that

to me about your mom.

You have not said that

you have a sister.

I don't, so.

Just talk to me.

Do you have a sister?

No, gabi, I don't have

a sister, she's dead.

She's dead?

Yeah, please, stop.

I'm sorry.

It's fine, but you keep digging.

I'm not digging.

Don't say that, I'm asking.

Because I should know

because I'm your

girlfriend, right?

I mean.

Girlfriends know

that kind of stuff.

You wanna talk about it?

You can talk about it with me.

Fine, I'll talk about it.

Okay, look.

My sister died in a car

accident when she was 16.

The money from the settlement

paid for me to go to college,

it completely

destroyed my family,

and it's never been

the same since then.

Is that better?

Yeah, it's better

because I know.
