Same Kind of Different as Me
It's quite a home, isn't it?
15,000 square feet
of overpriced art
and big ol' bathtubs.
I know it's ridiculous,
but I love it.
After all, I'm from Texas.
We tend to like things big
down here.
This is my home.
And you probably can't tell
it's broken.
One that begins and ends
with a girl I married.
Debbie hall.
A girl with a heart so big
that Texas can't even hold it.
So I'm gonna try
to write it all down.
Hopefully make some sense
out of how I got here.
Problem is,
I'm not an author.
I'm an art dealer.
Hello?
Julio?
Hello?
You must be
Mr. hall.
No. No, no, no.
Just call me Ron.
Okay, Ron.
I'm Willow,
Julio's assistant.
Your drive up okay?
Yeah,
drive out was fine.
Good.
you're an author.
Oh, he did, did he?
Yeah.
Oh.
So what kind of book
are you writing?
That's a good question.
Is it a true story?
Yeah, very.
Uh, I have to get that.
It's revival season.
You see that path
over there?
Thank you.
Well, if you change your mind,
follow the bells.
Where is he?
That was him on the phone.
He's late, as usual.
Ay, ay, ay.
Always forever
the perfectionist.
I always thought
this was the saddest painting
I'd ever seen in my life.
You gave it to me for free,
and now he's worth
a million dollars.
Hmm.
It's not worth
a million dollars?
No. No, it is. I just...
Just not sure
what a million dollars
is worth anymore.
Are you okay?
Well, I made it here.
Yes, you did.
Ah.
Oh, this. What is this?
It ain't a Rembrandt.
Oh, yes, this is, um,
into eating bull's balls.
They're called calf fries,
and I seem to recall
you loved them.
Yes, I did.
Yes, you did.
Mm-hmm.
Okay. You can have
any bedroom in the house, okay?
Except the one
that I'm sleeping in.
Now get to writing
that book of yours,
and I'll leave you alone.
Oh, it's done?
Well--
is that off or crooked?
Uh--
better.
No, down. Yeah.
I still don't know why
it needed restoring, but...
Is it different?
Oh, it seems like
it was better before.
Oh.
Maybe I like
the way time treated it,
like you could see
its history
or something.
Well, everything just needs
once in a while.
I gotta get
out to north Dallas.
I'm supposed to sell a Remington
to a crazy old lady, all right?
I'll see you
at the gala tonight?
Yeah.
Kids are coming, right?
Right.
Don't let them back out, Debbie.
It's important.
I know it's important.
Well, it is, Debbie.
I know.
Hey, you all know my definition
of modern art.
You take a canvas,
you throw a little paint on it,
you wipe it off with a rag,
you throw out the canvas,
and you sell the rag.
You know that's true.
- You know that's true.
- It is true.
That's why
i only deal in the classics
and you all have
my telephone number.
for coming out here tonight
to support
fort worth art in public places.
This is an important cause
for all of us.
We couldn't do this without
your decency, your kindness,
and, of course, your generosity.
for more donations later.
Thank you for coming down.
Have a good time tonight.
Thank you.
How'd it go?
Good job, dad.
Thanks.
Hey.
I always say
give till it hurts.
Well, that's what I said.
I was trying to say it
like you, give till it hurts.
How are you, dear?
Okay, listen,
i want you to tell everybody
how good I was.
You guys have fun.
Hey.
Come on.
It can't be that bad being
the prettiest girl at the ball.
