I want to ask you something.

Did you notice anything funny

about the way your son

was looking at my Georgia today?

Beagle?

No, ma'am.

That's just Beagle.

He's got absolutely no game

in that area, trust me.

Georgia.

It's time for your friend

to go home.

Oh, sh*t.

Come back tomorrow.

Yeah?

Yeah, we can go somewhere.

Okay.

Honey, wrap it up.

I'll see you tomorrow.

- Great.

Bye.

Now, I'll be sure

and call the school on Monday

and let them know what

a hardworking teacher they have

that comes

to his student's house

on a Saturday night

when he could be out

with some friends his own age.

Okay, bye.

Good night.

Hey. Morning, Buddy.

Morning.

What do I smell?

I smell eggs.

Eggies!

Eggs,

my favorite thing.

And you know what?

You know

this man right here,

he will not allow me

to eat one egg.

It's because you're supposed

to be watching your cholesterol.

To cholesterol.

What have I got this morning?

My two boys in the same room

with me.

I'm eating eggs, Bud.

You gonna be able

to stick around for a while?

Yeah. I-I-I don't know.

I, um...

I'm kind of in between gigs.

Music thing's

not really working out.

Didn't you just tell us

that you made a record?

And we still got

to pay for it.

I think we sold,

like, 13 copies,

Come on, you could...

I'm thinking

about bartending again, I guess.

You... you can always help out

in the shop.

Right.

Oh, no.

I don't believe it.

- What's wrong?

No, I don't...

oh, my God.

What?

"Dear Miss Kaminski,

"we would be delighted

to publish your continued work

"on the Georgia

still life series,

"and you have been chosen

as the aperture foundation

portfolio pick."

That's me.

Are you serious?

- Yes.

That's incredible, baby.

That's what you wanted.

Yes, it is.

- Good.

Congratulations.

You hear that, Georgia?

That's awesome, Mom.

It is, isn't it?

Oh, baby,

just think.

Someday your images

are gonna be hanging up

next to Sally Mann.

No, your image is.

No, god gave me

such a beautiful daughter,

and I want to show the world

how special you are.

Mama, do I have

to do this today?

I just really

don't feel like it.

Why not?

I love your photos.

It's not that. I just...

well, let's just get you

into this and take some...

baby, she don't want

to do it.

Well, how do you know that?

Okay, who's up

for a day of beauty?

I'm gonna go.

- Where are you going?

Nana's taking me
