inclusive.

Today is Sunday,

For which

I give thanks.

Oh, the drinks.

Come in.

Sit down.

Thank you.

Put it on the table.

Si.

Tell Pedro to take it out of my salary.

Pedro says you already owe him.

Well, make it worth his while to sue.

Tip yourself a buck.

Muy bien.

Undehydrate yourself,

tourist.

From the united states

air force to this.

From bomber to bar.

From riches to rags.

Sad, isn't it, hmm?

Yes, sir.

I flew way up

high in the sky

Like a guy.

Me and the wild

blue yonder.

Tug, please.

Speaking of pleasing,

you please me.

Have I ever told you

that you please me?

I'm jealous of my wife,

And what do you

think about that?

Tug,

I wish you'd stop.

I can't, Liz.

Can't stop.

All wound up.

Got to run down...

slowly.

Very slowly-

Tug.

Tug.

I'm sorry. It happens

this way with Tug.

He thinks

he's all right.

Then suddenly

he's just gone.

Tug.

Here, let me

help you.

Thanks. I got to

get him home.

O.K.,

here we are.

Home again.

Put her right

down there.

Atta boy.

I'm sorry.

That's

all right.

Liz, come here.

I love you, Liz.

I know.

I love you.

Darling,

go to sleep, please.

Be quiet.

I'll make him

some coffee.

You could have

that beer.

There's some

in the kitchen.

I'd like it.

Come and get

your beer

Before it

starts to boil.

There was something

about her,

A softness.

You had to tell yourself

it was a good routine-

A very good routine.

Thank you.

Carlota's a funny place

for people like you to land.

Oh, it's a living

down here...

or rather,

it was at first.

Been here long?

Almost seven months.

Tug came down

with the airline-

Passenger stuff,

airmail.

He was very good.

You got to be

on that run.

He didn't drink when he first came down,

But then the airline people let him go,

Very suddenly,

just like that.

It hit him

very hard.

You see where

he wound up.

You know

all that business

About flying way up

high in the sky?

It sounded like whining, but it isn't.

It's...

it's just nerves.

A lot of those kids

had nerves,

With reason.

He came home from the wars,

and you got married.

Didn't everybody?

Why am I telling you

all this stuff?

Blame it

on the climate.

Why haven't you

gotten out?

We're stuck-

Broke and in debt

and stuck.

You can't get out

of this country

While you're

in hock, you know.

Is there anything more

I can do?

No, thank you.

I'm used to it.

Well, Mr. Rigby, I

work tomorrow, all day.

Housekeeping,

daytimes.

Pedro's, nighttimes.

Well, thanks

for the beer.

And the story

of my life?

I'd have liked that

better if I didn't think

You skipped

some of it.

For instance?

The parts

that count.

Liz.

Your master's voice?
