I'm hungry.

I think Howard's wonderful

the way he organises everything.

He's not an efficiency consultant

for nothing.

If he were, he wouldn't

be married to you.

I'm hungry.

Hand me that guide book, sugar.

Thanks.

I want to eat something now.

If you want to ruin your lunch,

Ruthie, you can.

We believe in leaving things

for her own free decision.

Does that key make the car go?

Sort of.

Ruthie, that hurt Mommy.

Did you see what she did?

She pinched me.

She probably thinks you're excluding

her. She needs reassuring.

If she does it again,

I'm going to need hospitalisation.

We're covered.

Have you ever been

in analysis?

No.

It can be very worthwhile.

Shall I tell you a story, Ruthie?

Joanna, thank you.

There we are, love.

Come on, Ruthie.

Quite like old times,

Mr. Wallace.

I see what you mean about

rearranging the luggage.

I thought you might, Howie.

That's a real sun.

We're getting way down south, honah.

Mummy, I'm hungry.

I want to eat something now.

I don't want anything to eat.

I think she's going to be

late fixating.

She felt we hurried her.

Why don't we all relax?

Marcus, I've been meaning

to say about expenses.

I think I've come up with a formula.

Ruthie.

If you're agreeable,

we'll call Ruthie a half,

in which event we can divide

everything into nine parts

and split them in the ratio

of five to four.

I think that's the final breakdown

on this morning's expenses.

If you'd care to check it.

I believe you.

Shall we go?

You don't like my house, do you?

It's very handsome.

Market at 25000, I like it a lot.

It's beautiful, Ruthiebelle.

Come on, sweetheart.

I want to take my house with me.

She's feeling insecure.

Only natural.

Come on, sweetness.

I want to take my house

with me!

I want it!

Ruthie, this time I have to say

no, and I mean no.

It's very reassuring at times

to retain a flexibility of attitude.

He has a tremendously mature quality,

that's what I love about him.

He has a quiet assurance.

Don't you think he has

a quiet assurance?

Very quiet assurance.

He's the husband type.

You were always the lover type.

I guess you still are.

I've been married to Joanna

for nearly two years.

But your relationship is volatile.

Anyone can see that.

Joanna, I don't want you

to feel badly about what happened.

It doesn't matter.

I think it does matter.

You resent Ruthie, don't you?

A little spilt wine...

You misunderstand me.

You resent her because

you want to have a child.

We're 17 minutes behind schedule.

Mark, you have 53 Km.

Still to go.

It's hot.

Sweetheart, we should've left

the car under the sun-shelter.

Let's move it, Marcus.

- Mummy.
