to medical school, in the Middle Ages.

- So, you're a doctor?

- Was.

I mostly do veterinary work now

and odd bits of research.

What do you research?

- He's a big pumpum researcher.

- What's pumpum?

- You're such a bad girl.

- Thank you.

- What's pumpum?

- Come on.

What? Why is everyone laughing?

What's pumpum?

Pumpum. Now this is a question

that deserves an answer.

No, no, no, hold on a second.

Very interesting...

What is pumpum?

- Oh, you're kidding. You're kidding!

- No!

I don't get much opportunity

for shop talk.

Spider to obeah

is as a snake is to voodoo.

- Why a spider?

- It's the wisest of all creatures.

No direct conflict with the prey,

just lays traps, waits.

...and then boom!

I'm surprised you'd be interested in it.

My interest is purely professional.

I have a patient interested in it.

Poor Wesley.

Is he expected?

Well, Paul was hoping,

but it's tough on both these boys.

First the mother tragedy,

then Wesley so sick.

You know, I have this

fabulous property in Negril.

- Thank you.

- What happened to the mother?

Murdered 20 years ago. Horrible thing.

Caro's mother also,

same way, a month earlier.

- How?

- Little chop-chop.

Machete action.

Wesley.

Wesley.

Wes.

Wesley, you look so much better.

Thank you.

Come on,

your seat's all ready for you.

Oh, that's great...

...but maybe I should sit

next to the doctor...

...just... Just in case I need

some sudden medical attention.

As you wish.

Oh, Wesley.

It's so wonderful to see you

back at the dinner table again.

I missed your cooking.

Sit down, sit down.

So sick of that crap

those doctors made me eat.

The smell makes me feel better already.

So, Polidori, how do you like Jamaica?

I like Jamaica very much, Your Lordship.

Every day I learn something new.

What did you learn today, Polidori?

Today I learned what pumpum is.

A napkin, Your Lordship?

Goodness!

Oh, yay!

Whatever you're doing for him,

it's working.

I haven't seen him

like this in over a year.

It's not me. I haven't

done anything yet, but I will.

Come on, Wesley!

Oh, man!

- Does anybody want to dance with me?

- Yes, Caro...

Whoo!

- Yeah, baby!

- Come on, baby.

Here we go now. Come on now.

Once the estate sells...

...the brown b*tch will be hocking her

wares on the street where she belongs.

I love it!

Don't you find her repulsive?

Actually, no.

I think she's a great girl.

Did you just say Paul

is selling the estate?

Yeah, baby!

Get your hands off of my girl.

Cut it out.

- What?...

- Come here.

- Take it easy, man!

- Let him go!

- I'm just dancing with her.

- Hold on, brother.

Don't you have any shame?

Thank you for coming.
