Wake Page #6

How are you doing?

Oh, trying to cope.

Hello, Marissa. How are you?

I feel ill.

I'm sorry to hear that.

You were at the funeral.

How did you know Anna?

Oh, how did I know Anna?

Gosh, it's been a while.

Well, it wasn't from college.

I was at Brown with my sister.

And I would have

remembered you. Yeah.

No, it wasn't at college. Oh.

Definitely not at college.

It was here, here in L.A.

We, uh, took a class together.

What sort of class?

Uh, art class.

Anna was taking an art class?

She never mentioned

anything about that.

I'm sure she was good.

She had that artistic flair.

Yes, I'm sure she was good.

Yeah.

You know, I'm just wondering...

Do you have a bathroom I could use?

Yes, right through there.

Thank you.

[Door closes]

[Sighing]

JOHN:
I don't think

this is the right time, Marissa.

MARISSA:

No, tell him.

Why should we

be embarrassed to say it?

He should be embarrassed.

He came here with a date.

JOHN:

Marissa, calm down.

MARY:
Tyler, you know

why we asked you here.

I'm pretty sure I do.

It's awkward to discuss this so soon,

but we need to talk to you

about the money.

Good, because

I want to talk to you, too.

Well, it's difficult for us to ask,

but we feel that Anna's money

should go to her family.

I wish it were that easy,

but she left me as the executor,

and... and I take that responsibility

very seriously.

Well, we think you should resign

as executor and let us take over.

[Water splashing]

[Gasps]

Oh, f***.

What was that?

- Oh, my goodness.

- Did you hear that noise?

What was that?

Just let... let's stay focused.

Okay, all right, all right.

Obviously Anna thought that she

was going to be married to you

for 50 years before she died,

but that didn't happen, as you know.

And you were not married.

You were her boyfriend.

Her fianc, and it was

very clear what she wanted.

This is the last thing I can do

for her, and I'm gonna do it.

Anna didn't know about

our financial difficulties.

Well, for a close family,

you sure have a lot of secrets.

Oh, who are you

to talk about secrets?

I know what you did.

Look, you're upset, and I understand.

I wish that there was

something I could do.

I should probably go.

I called the police.

We've discussed this before.

You're tired.

We're not going through this again.

Please, Marissa,

just go to the safe-deposit box.

We'll go to the box when we're ready

to go through her effects.

No, Sir, it has to be Marissa.

[Bathroom door closes]

There you are.

We should go.

Thank you very much

for having us over.

It was nice to see all of you again.

[Door opens]

That was great. Thanks.

Oh, I'm so sorry.

Bringing you here was inconsiderate.
