Are you okay?

Mary...

the house, the baby,

it's expensive.

So I'm telling you, that if I

don't get on that plane...

they will find someone who will.

Baby, if I don't go...

we're f***ed.

Look at me.

You're a great mom.

We're gonna be fine.

Promise?

Yeah.

Come here.

(SOFT MUSIC PLAYING)

I love you.

It's more Richard's thing,

he needs the attention.

God knows I don't give him any.

You should come.

Yeah. If Jack's back.

How long is he gone for?

A week, maybe two,

he's not sure.

Business trips, Rich goes on

them all the time.

Whatever, don't ask, don't tell.

Right?

Oh, uh, it's not like that.

Oh, I just thought you guys were

maybe, you know, down.

No, No. Not down.

Definitely not.

I don't know how people do it,

personally. It's so archaic.

- Do what?

- Monogamy.

Talk about repressing your

animal instincts.

Check it out. Not bad, right?

Miranda got just a normal

two-Queen... sucker.

So it's just the two of you,

then?

Yeah, for now, Walt flies in

Wednesday before the meeting.

Must be nice, flying in, shake

a few hands, get wasted...

and fly out.

So, are you... you know, taking

your...

Meds?

Yes, your crazy wife is still

taking her meds...

while you're out gallivanting...

in some fancy hotel room

with another woman.

It sounds like they're not

working yet.

Hah-hah-hah.

Check this out.

That's terrifying.

Yeah, I can watch you all day.

So you know, feel free to walk

around naked whenever you want.

You would like that.

Hey, hey, let me see the little

guy for a second.

Hey, hi, buddy. Hi.

Daddy misses you.

He misses you, too, don't you?

Daddy, come home.

Jesus Christ.

(LOUD BANG)

(ADAM CRYING OVER MONITOR)

Oh, my god.

(EERIE MUSIC PLAYING)

(WIND BLOWING)

Look, it was probably just

teenagers.

I mean, they're bored and

getting into trouble...

all the time around here.

How's he doing?

Fine.

They're a lot tougher

than they look.

Do you have kids?

Uh, no.

I recognize you.

Yeah, I just live a few doors

over.

Look, if you need anything,

don't hesitate to knock.

Okay, it's probably quicker

than calling 911.

Thanks.

Ssh... ssh.

It's not fine...

I hope these punkass kids try

this sh*t with me...

I will be out the door so

fast...

I don't care if they're

ten years old...

I will beat the sh*t out

of them.

Relax.

I need a drink.

[MARY] Up.

Sweet. Oh, crap.

- What?

- It's empty.

It is?

Yeah, no worries, I got some at

my place, like five minutes.

- Can you watch him?

- Yeah, sure.

(DISTANT THUNDER ROLLING)

(DIALING, RINGING)

Hey, you've reached Jack...

I'm not here to take your call

right now.

Sh*t.

(EERIE MUSIC PLAYING)

Mommy's gonna be right back,

okay?
