No, this nice man

just wanted to know how you were.

I'm fabulous!

I've never felt better in my life!

Well, great.

What'll you have?

- What'll you have?

- Southern Comfort with ice.

Make that two.

Okay. You bet.

I'll be right back. I gotta lock my car.

There you are.

Cigarette?

- What was that?

- Nothing, sir. Just setting up your drinks.

- What was that?

- Nothing.

Jake!

- He said he'd be back in just...

- Jake!

He said he'd be back in a minute, Andy.

- How did you know any name?

- Well, your friend called you...

Jake!

Where are you?

What is this?

What are you doing?

What are you doing with me?

What is this?

What the hell is this thing?

What kind of a place is this?

Hey!

- I'm right here, Andy.

- Jake!

I'm right here.

Don't ever leave me again, Jake.

I'm sorry, he can't, he's...

Sorry.

At the tone,

the time will be 8:09 and 50 seconds.

All right, time to go back to bed.

You don't want your mommy

to be angry with me, do you?

Come here.

I want my mommy.

When you wake up,

your mommy will be here to pick you up.

Night-night.

Is she on a date?

I don't know.

She asked me to keep him for one night.

Well, what about the other kids?

I don't know.

Well, what am I supposed to say to Joe?

Nothing!

Don't you tell that son of a b*tch anything!

Come on now. He's our friend.

He's a rat.

I would have left him long before she did.

What is that supposed to mean?

If anything like that ever happened to us...

...I don't know what I would do.

- We better just drop the subject.

- No. Now, wait a minute.

Now we're talking nicely and calmly.

Let's hear what you have to say on the subject.

Teddy...

I know you think you know everything about me,

but you don't.

I'm really a very jealous woman.

I know you think, emotionally, I'm like this, but...

...you know, I really...

...am a little...

...crazy.

But just in some ways.

- Why are you telling me all this?

- You asked me.

I know I asked you,

but you make it sound as if we're not a happily...

What?

What have you got there?

It's a gun.

I know it's a gun,

but when did you ever get a gun?

Well, Mama gave it to me after they moved.

You realize you might have shot me?

I would never do that.

I mean, not without a reason.

You're not like Joe.

Do you know what he did to Theresa,

right in front of me?

He had his secretary call at 10:00 at night...

...and say he had work to do at the office.

- He did that?

- Yes.

You mean, that old trick still works?

Not anymore.

I'll get it.

Hello?

Yes, just a minute. It's Richard.

Hello.

Yes, Richard. How are you?

Yes.

You what?

Is this a joke?

You want me to do what?

Are you crazy?

They said...
