The Mirror Has Two Faces Page #4

While it does last,

it feels f***ing great.

I'm almost finished,

and you haven't started yet.

The perfect bite.

You need a therapist.

Do we have to have the TV on?

Can't we have a conversation?

I'm not intellectually stimulating,

like your university people ...

I'm sorry. How was your day, Mother?

- Who gives a sh*t?

- I said I was sorry. Let's talk.

I've lived too long.

I should be dead.

Give me that! Talk to me already!

All right. You haven't even noticed

I had my hair done differently.

I thought you looked different.

It looks great.

- What's different about it?

- The ...

Nothing. You're just like

your father. So easy to trip up.

- So, how was work?

- Same as always.

Though I had one customer in

for a make-over. She needed one.

Dyed blonde hair. Blue eyeshadow.

Ash-brown foundation. Hideous.

- She was shocked over my age.

- How old were you?

Sorry.

I ran into Mr. Jenkins again.

He cornered me in the elevator.

He invited me to an Alzheimer's

benefit. I said forget it.

I can't believe he still asks you.

Why don't you go with him sometime?

No ... I raised two daughters.

I buried a husband. That's my life.

I don't want to start another.

And he knows my situation with you.

You won't see him because of me?

How would it look? The mother's

dating and the daughter stays home?

Who's looking?

Hello ... Hi.

Hello, this is ...

Hello, I'm Gregory Larkin.

Professor Gregory Larkin.

Answer the phone. I'm sleeping.

Is Professor Larkin there?

I mean, is Professor Morgan there?

- Barely. Who's this?

- Gregory Larkin.

I'm a professor

in the math department at Columbia.

I was just calling to see...

- How are you tonight?

- I'm fine. How are you?

Fine.

I hope it wasn't presumptuous

of me, but I went to your class -

- and was very impressed. I hoped

we could eat dinner Saturday.

- Louder!

- I sat in on your class.

- Hold on. Don't go away.

- I was impressed by your teaching.

I was hoping

we could have dinner Saturday.

I can do this!

Can you hear me?

- Okay ... You want to eat dinner.

- I sat in on your class.

- Who's on the phone?

- Quiet! No, not you.

Gregory Larkin.

Math department. Columbia.

- I saw you pass by.

- I was just passing by ...

- I'm sorry about calling ...

- I was so confused.

- Are we on for Saturday night?

- Sure.

- I'm looking forward to it.

- Moi aussi.

He must be good-looking,

for you to go to all this trouble.

- I hate lipstick.

- Did you try the samples I brought?

- I'm not going.

- Oh, what do you want for dinner?

I don't care. I'm upset.

Can't you see that?

- You always cancel your dates.

- This is not a date.

Then why does it matter how you look
