07x03 - While the Cat's Away

[bunniefuu]

[theme music playing]

[mellow music playing]

[birds chirping]

I thought you were going to be here a half hour ago.

Well, I'm here now. What can I do for you?

Gary wants the structure built over there.

We have to have it built over there.

Oh. Well, um, what does Gary think the problem will be?

Gary's afraid that the blasting over there will...

...destroy the underground aquifer recharge zone.

-That's the runoff. -[scoffs]

Since when did you become such an expert

in environmental protection?

-Morning, Mrs. Ewing. -Good morning, Elliot.

Lord, is it hot out here. I don't know how you work.

I would not survive. I'd wilt.

I find that hard to imagine, Mrs. Ewing.

Mr. Sumner tells me you have some problem

with a new site for our broadcast center.

Oh, there's no problem, really. It's just that, um,

I'm waiting for approval from Mr. Ewing.

Oh, why didn't you say so?

I've spoken to Gary, and the new site

does have his approval.

[Elliot] He knows about the potential risk

to the underground water supply?

Oh, sure.

You know, I'm just getting a little uncomfortable

about how I'm getting my orders.

Oh, Elliot, please tell me you're not one of those men

who hates taking orders from women.

It's not a question of that, Mrs. Ewing.

I'm used to getting my orders directly from Gary.

Oh, I know, but when he's away, I represent him

and I guarantee you, this new site has his complete approval.

Elliot, can I talk to you in confidence?

Yeah.

Look, it's really been hard on Gary since his brother died.

It's been hard on all of us, and we need people like you

to help us through this time.

Okay?

[birds chirping]

-Can I look at these? -Yep. Yeah.

You see, that's uh, the place that Gary originally wanted to,

uh, have the broadcast station.

Oh, because of the runoff problem

to the aquifer recharge zone, huh?

That's exactly right, yes.

I'm really sorry Gary never got back to you on this.

I guess with everything that's going on, he forgot.

But we had new soil samples done.

There is no runoff problem anymore.

I know you do a terrific job out here.

Just terrific.

Gary and I would really hate to have to hire another engineer.

We'd never find one half as good as you.

[soft music playing]

Okay, fellas, let's get back to work.

Move the trucks. Load up the equipment.

That field break should last you about a week.

[engine idling]

What's this going to cost me?

-Lunch. -12 o'clock.



[mellow music playing]

Can you explain how something

like this could happen?

[Mack] No, I can't.

I don't understand it any more than you do.

Then why are you treating us as if we were the kidnappers?

Oh, the questions I'm asking you are routine.

The district attorney is going to ask you

the same questions at the deposition.

You'll have your lawyer there and he'll advise you as...

Our lawyer got us into this.

[sighs] Mr. McKenzie understands that, dear.

He means another lawyer.

Maybe I should choose the lawyer this time.

I couldn't do any worse than Kavanaugh, could I?

Take it easy now. Come on.

I'm sorry. My wife has been under a lot of stress lately.

I understand, Mr. Fisher.

Mrs. Fisher, you've been victimized

just as much as the natural parents have been.

Now, it's my job to find out how such a thing could happen.

I know all this is crazy for you. I know it is.

You got all these different toys.

[baby crying]

You got different houses and different cars, but no more.

[toys rattles]

Yeah.

Because you're home now.

Yeah, you are.

We were told that everything we did was legal.

I don't doubt that for a minute.

It just isn't fair. It isn't fair.

Anyone who wants babies should be able to have them.

Is that all?

[Mack] Yeah, for now, we'll just set a time for the deposition.

Why didn't you go through a traditional adoption agency?

Well, we tried that, but it just takes so much time.

[Mrs. Fisher] Adequate, Harry.

Don't you remember? Adequate. That's what they said.

They said we were not adequate parents.

How would they know

in an interview?

Did anybody ask my parents if they were fit?

-[thud] -[sobs]

I mean, every day, people have babies.

Nobody asks them, are you going to be a fit parent.

I mean, do they hand out questionnaires

at the maternity ward? Do they? Do they?

[melancholy music playing]

-[sniffles] -Okay, come on. Let's go now.

So just watch Mommy, see?

Watch Mommy here.

Mama loves the squash, okay? So you try it, huh?

Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum. Come on.

-Sweetheart. -Open up.

Why don't you try the choo-choo?

It always worked with you.

Never worked with me, Mama. I hate squash.

-Here comes a train. Choo-choo. -Here you go.

-[telephone rings] -Yum, yum, yum.

I'm going to leave this here. I'm gonna get the phone, okay?

Hello? Oh, hi, darling.

Val, how's it going?

Well, Mama's trying to get them to eat their squash.

like she did with me when I was little.

It's not working too well. [chuckles]

I swear that... Mama, why don't you try the pears?

They'll be better.

I swear that these kids are going to be ready

for college in a week.

They are so bright.

Don't you dare laugh.

Who's laughing?

You say they're advanced, Valene?

Oh, come on, they are. I'm telling you.

[baby crying]

There's a little choo-choo.

I'm going to have to go.

Okay, I'll call you when they grow up.

No, no, no, that's okay. I'll call you

when they take their nap, alright?

Like you did yesterday?

I'm sorry about that, Ben.

I won't let that happen again, I promise.

[Ben] Well, that's okay, really. Just have your social secretary

put me down on your appointment calendar.

Would you stop that? You know I love you.

I do. I'm coming.

I'll call you later, okay? Bye-bye.

I can understand you being frustrated or even angry.

Being a parent is a full-time job and with two little ones.

You know, when I need your understanding or your opinion,

I think I'll ask for it.

Well, I just hope that you and Val

will be able to find some time on your appointment calendar

for yourselves.

[gloomy music playing]

[thuds]

Kick it low!

[metal rattles]

How much you want for this drill bit?

You mean to strike it rich?

How much?

[metal clanking]

I can't cheat you, mister.

That doesn't work anymore.

-How much? -Ten bucks.

And $65 for the car.

[car engine revving]

[birds chirping]

For lunch you're on time, huh?

Of course.

I've been thinking to myself,

"Why is this woman being nice to me?"

I'm just looking after my husband's interests.

And I realize she loves it.

Let's have lunch.

You'd never admit this, but I bet you'd just k*ll

to get invited to the White House, wouldn't you?

You'd love having lunch with the head of the Credit Suisse

when you're weekending in Switzerland.

Have your kisser plastered all over the cover of Time ,

international humanitarian awards hanging from your walls.

Don't be embarrassed, Abby.

I think it's admirable you wanting to be on the A-list.

Whatever the A-list might be.

Oh, you know exactly what it is.

What I do know is that we're on a deadline

and that we're building where we shouldn't.

I love it when you say we.

It makes me feel like I have a partner.

What I don't know is how Gary feels.

What I don't know is

everything that you know about Empire Valley,

and that doesn't make for very happy partners, now, does it?

My bet is you'd do anything to get on that A-list,

which means go along to get along,

which translates to what's good for Empire Valley

is good for Ewing Enterprises.

Here's to Empire Valley.

And here's to Ewing Enterprises.

I'm getting the excavating done before Gary returns.

Oh, don't worry.

I can handle that.

Thanks for lunch.

[car engine revving]

[Abby] It's nothing that I can't handle.

Don't worry, the important thing is how are you?

[thinking] Look what I found. It's a drill bit.

Oh, yeah.

Honey, I'm worried about you.

-Gary? -[chuckles]

You'll never guess what I found.

Try me.

-A drill bit. -A drill bit?

Yeah, an old one, like from one of Daddy's early strikes.

It reminds me of the time when I was a kid, and we all...

[sighs]

Yeah, well...

Honey, have you been taking care of yourself?

Are you getting enough sleep?

Yeah, I'm fine.

[Abby] Well, are you sure you don't want me to come down?

I could hop on a plane and be there in a couple of hours.

I don't think the airlines could find this place.

I'm serious, I could meet you.

Unless, of course, you want some more time alone.

I don't want to be in the way.

I'm driving the route Daddy took us when we were kids.

Well, then you call me every night

and tell me about it, alright?

-Yeah, okay. -You drive carefully.

-You got it. -I love you.

I love you, too.

[Mack] Sheila Fisher had a nervous breakdown.

[Karen] The character, temperament,

and mental health of the adopting parent

must be, in the opinion of the social agency, adequate.

to give the child a secure and emotionally stable home.

You know, from what I saw today,

the Fishers couldn't pass a routine screening.

Not that an agency screening is perfect...

But it is better than no screening at all,

which the Fisher case proves.

I feel so sorry for those people.

-What people? -The Fishers.

Their loss is like Val's was,

only they'll never get their babies back.

-Alright, hold it. -Honey, all I'm saying...

-No, no, hold it. -Look, all I'm saying...

No, no, you look, you look.

You're married to the governor's special investigator,

who's specially investigating this case, right?

Can you imagine what the press...

Forget what the courts, would do

if they got hold of a story that my wife was interfering

in this investigation?

I shouldn't go talk to them.

You shouldn't go talk to them, exactly.

Now, that that's out of the way...

I still feel so sorry for those people.

Feel sorry for me.

Gary wanted it there. We had to have it here.

Excellent. Excellent.

How did you do it?

I got Mrs. Ewing to handle it.

-Abby? -You remember her first name.

Must have been something nice.

Greg, our associates don't want to utilize anyone

who's not absolutely necessary.

It was absolutely necessary to get Abby's help.

After all, Professor, you utilized her, didn't you?

And then you told her all about Empire Valley.

Why, Greg, that sounds like an accusation.

It is, Professor.

Loose lips sink ships.

You don't think that I told her the truth.

You told her enough of the truth to put her onto my back.

I set her on a wild goose chase.

Er, just what control do you have over her?

She can't let her husband find out what she's done.

The more she helps us, the more we have against her.

Don't underestimate this woman.

Thanks for the advice.

Nor her husband, neither, for that matter.

Honest people have a way of surprising you.

-By their alien logic. -[laughs]

Greg, my dear friend,

don't uh, let's bring anyone else into this, shall we?

Outsiders mean leaks.

Leaks result in publicity.

And publicity is the one thing that can k*ll our project.

[soft music playing]

It's just such a shock.

I haven't had a chance to talk to Gary since it happened.

Yeah, neither have I.

I know he's in Dallas.

Bobby was the only one who ever treated me like a...

Who ever acted like he was on my side.

I just can't stand it for Gary.

I-I-I wish there was something

that I could do for him.

It hasn't been totally...

I was worried how they would take to me, you know.

If they'd like me or...

How long it was gonna take for them to get used to me.

[both laughs]

It almost makes me want to have another baby.

Well, then why don't you? I bet Mack would love it.

-Oh, foul. -What?

You're kidding.

They don't always stay that way. They get bigger.

I've done my time.

Alright, alright. It's just a suggestion, that's all.

Oh, dear. Look what time it is.

I gotta get... Hey!

I gotta get back to work.

Karen, wait.

What?

There's something I want to say.

I've never properly thanked you.

-Oh, come on. -No, would you stop that?

Now, listen to me. I want to say it.

[gloomy music playing]

I will never, ever forget what you've done for me.

And I love you for it.

Elliot, I get nervous when things slow down.

There is no slow down. Thank you.

We just can't rush this phase of it.

Don't tell me why, Elliot. Make me ask.

This is a delicate operation, Mr. Sumner.

It's like surgery. If we're not careful,

we can disrupt the underground water table.

Like surgery, Elliot,

-when will the patient be ready? -What?

Surgery, Elliot. Your metaphor. When will we be ready to blast?

When do you want to blast?

I would like to blast right now.

-Maybe tomorrow. -Maybe?

Maybe you haven't picked up on my sense of urgency.

Tomorrow, Mr. Sumner.

Unless we run into some unforeseen difficulty.

How did I know you were going to say that?

-[crickets chirping] -[telephone rings]

[telephone rings]

Hello?

Oh, I'm sorry I didn't call you back. It's just that I...

Let me guess. You got busy and then you got tired.

I'm sorry, Ben.

-No problem. -Yes, it is a problem.

It's... Well...

It's a problem that all new parents face, I guess.

You know, they just, don't have as much time

for each other as they used to.

I heard that from another source recently.

What?

Listen, what you doin' right now? I could come over.

No, not tonight. I am so wiped out.

I am just exhausted.

Um, could I... Could I take a rain check?

Sure. How about tomorrow night?

Tomorrow night?

Yeah, that'd be great. That'd be fine.

The babies will probably be over their colds by then.

The babies have colds?

It's unbelievable.

The minute they get over one thing,

it seems like it's something else.

It just kills me to see them go through it.

But it doesn't seem to phase them.

-How about Sunday? -Sunday?

Yeah, you know, you and I could, uh, go out.

Lilimae could sit with the kids.

Okay, but couldn't we just take them with us? I'd love that.

Well, we could, but, uh, hey, even babies need to break away

from their mother every once in a while.

I know that. It's just that I, I hate to leave them,

even for just a little while.

I feel like I've been away from them too long as it is.

Oh, one of them's crying. I've got to go, hon.

I love you. I love you. I'm sorry. Bye-bye.

Bye.

[Greg] I don't trust Elliot.

I'll never finish this by Monday.

-Why not? -It's too much.

He's gonna have a fit of conscience sooner or later.

We have to blast before that happens.

I'm sure you can handle it, honey.

They wouldn't assign you more than you can handle.

If I could handle it, I wouldn't be calling you.

[laughs]

Well, look, Greg, I'm happy to do anything I can.

What you can do is be there in the morning.

You're doing it in the morning?

Have to. We can't wait.

We have to blast tomorrow.

I want you there at 9 o'clock sharp.

You're the only one who can handle them.

Alright, I'll be there.

Bye.

Mom, maybe you can help me.

Alright, I'll try.

Oh, Lord, is that algebra?

Yeah, see, they give me all these...

[Olivia] Gary.

I missed you.

[soft music playing]

[Abby] Honey.

How are you?

I'm okay.

I'll talk to you in the morning.

I've been worried about you.

Come on. You must be exhausted.

I'm glad you're back.

Did you eat anything?

I could have Maria fix you some supper.

No.

Are you alright?

What can I do? Tell me.

I missed you.

I'm glad you're back.

[mellow music playing]

Will I see you again, senator?

I'll call.

You know you were great. I mean that.

-You weren't like what I... -Whatever.

See you.

[telephone rings]

[Laura] I'm sorry I can't come to the phone right now.

[Greg] Not half as sorry as I am.

[Laura] Please leave your message

after the sound of the tone,

and I'll get back to you as soon as possible.

[Greg] Good hearing your voice, beauty.

I got the reservation.

The Plaza Del Sol, the same suite as we had the last time,

and the plane leaves at noon.

Honey, a week in the springs is going to do you a world of good.

But you better eat.

You have to take care of yourself.

I'd rather not go to the springs.

[sighs]

Where would you rather go?

Cabo San Lucas?

We could go to New York or Tokyo, anywhere.

Maybe I should go back to work.

No, I don't think so.

Why?

Look, you're exhausted.

I've been really worried about you.

I think you ought to at least take a couple of days off.

I could use a break myself, you know.

I don't really feel like traveling right now.

Well, you know what we could do?

We could have an at-home vacation.

Call everybody and tell them we're out of town

and just stay here.

You could ride a lot, I could swim a lot.

Come on. How about it?

I'm going to drive out to the construction site.

[tense music playing]

Well, Gary, I'll tell you what. Why don't uh,

why don't I go along with you?

Just uh, give me a minute to call the office

and let them know I'm going to be in later.

[telephone rings]

Greg Sumner.

Sherry. Hi, it's Abby. I just wanted to let you know

I won't be into the office until later.

I'm going out to the construction site with Gary.

Yeah, that's where I'll be if anybody needs me.

Oh, he's fine.

Elliot. Well, get him.

Elliot, this is Greg Sumner.

Now, I want you to listen to me very carefully.

Mrs. Ewing just called

and said you should go ahead and blast now.

Do not wait for us to come.

I don't care what we said yesterday.

I'm telling you to do it now.

Tim, clear the blast area right away.

We're not waiting for our audience. Move it, guys.

[car engine starting]

[dramatic music playing]

I'm sorry I took so long to get ready.

[Elliot] Sure we got enough of this, Jimmy?

Does now mean to you what it means to me?

-Get this signed, will you? -Thanks.

The state law prohibits the use of high expl*sives

unless we're clear to a minimum...

Well, then clear it.

We're doing it, Mr. Sumner.

[suspenseful music playing]

Now, as in now, Elliot?

Everybody in, Tim.

Bill and Ross are right behind me.

-When they get here. -Here they come.

Come on. Let's go.

Looks like Mr. Ewing.

Hold that blast, Tim, until he gets here.

Surprise, surprise.

[car engine revving]

Gary, sorry to hear about your brother.

Thank you.

We didn't expect you back so soon, Gary.

Glad you're here.

Sorry about what happened to your brother.

-Thank you. -I got to talk.

Elliot, why don't you let me show Gary our progress, huh?

[laughs]

You're going to explain to me about concrete density

and tensile strength and where the steel reinforcement

-has to be laid? -Well, sure.

Right. Honey, let the man do his job.

That's what we pay him for.

So, Elliot, I'd like an update on everything.

Even the things you don't want to bother me with.

Yo! Watch it.

-Been keeping busy, Elliot? -Yes, sir, I sure have.

I have to show you the original location.

-[child 1] Look what I found. -[child 2] What is it?

It's a drill bit. Help me lift it.

It's too heavy.

Not if we both carry it.

What if it belongs to someone?

Bobby, it's junk.

Nobody will ever know we have it.

What are we going to do with an old drill bit?

We'll put it with our other stuff.

It's too heavy to carry all the way back to the fort.

No, it's not. Come on.

[emotional music playing]

What the hell is this doing here?

Who left it here? Why does everything...

-Mr. Ewing. -Forget it, Elliot.

-Mr. Ewing. -Elliot, not now, please.

See how he is? He needs some time.

Just, please, we appreciate your understanding, alright?

Don't worry, I'll handle it.

[car engine revving]

-Now, Mr. Sumner? -I'll tell you when.

Now.

[b*mb blasts]

What's the matter?

Nothing.

[birds chirping]

What better testimony to the power of prayer

than the miraculous recovery of my sister's babies?

Did you change the lighting this week?

-It looks different. -Shh.

...of the power of faith?

I don't think the lighting is as important

as the words, Cathy.

Some miracles are public,

like the return of these precious children.

These miracles allow the whole world to see

and to feel the power of prayer.

Other miracles are known only to you,

in your heart, and to the Almighty.

These private miracles might have changed your life...

I'll get it.

...or the lives of those around you.

Yet we seldom are witness to such miracles.

Perhaps our faith is not strong enough

to subject these miracles to public scrutiny.

I was hoping to have missed this.

Stop it, come on.

Come on.

I know it's not very fashionable these days

to believe in miracles, but I do.

You and I have worked miracles with faith.

It was your faith which gave me and my sister

the strength to survive this ordeal.

Your prayers, your faith gave us hope.

Strengthened our faith.

My sister will always be grateful to you.

I will always be grateful.

Because what you did for us, what we did, was a miracle.

My sister's children have brought so much happiness

into her life, and your faith

has just made that happiness greater.

When my niece and nephew are grown,

I intend to tell them the story of their recovery,

a story of redemption.

It is a story of faith.

Because we never lost faith.

Oh, Joshua, that was beautiful.

Oh, don't you think so, Val?

[Lilimae] Val?

I think you'd be wanting to say something to your brother

for what he did.

Huh?

No, it's okay, Mama. She doesn't have to thank me.

I know you meant well, Joshua.

But the truth is, if you would have asked me first,

I would have told you not to talk about my babies again.

-Valene. -Because for the longest time,

no one kept the faith that my babies were alive except me.

I kept the faith, Joshua, and not you and not your viewers.

[Lilimae] Oh, Valene.

Oh, it's okay, Mama.

My viewers appreciate my ministry,

even if my own sister doesn't.

Would you stop that? That is not what I...

Cathy, are you coming?

[gloomy music playing]

His father was always a little edgy after a good sermon.

I wanted to applaud.

Oh, stop it.

-I'm glad that you didn't. -At least it's over.

[sighs] Yeah.

Are the babies asleep?

Yeah.

Chores done?

Chores are done.

-Wood chopped. -[laughs] Oh, stop.

I just wanted to make sure that all the things

that need to be done are done.

What are you doing?

Oh, just that which makes looking

at all this TV nonsense worthwhile.

You sound as if you're taking their side.

They're no sides, Josh.

[sighs] Look, you remember when you announced

that I was going to sing on your show,

and then you announced that we were engaged on the air,

and you didn't even ask me?

I was furious at you. Well, it's the same thing here.

You can't just presume things about people.

You're telling me that I can't presume

to do something nice for someone?

No.

What I'm saying is that what you might think

is right for somebody doesn't necessarily mean

that it's right.

You know what? I found it.

Found what?

The perfect, perfect apartment for us.

You're going to love it. It's so beautiful.

Will you just please take a look at it?

-Please? -Alright, tomorrow.

Oh, great. [laughs]

You're going to love it, I promise.

[mellow music playing]

Where's Gary?

I think he went for a walk, honey.

He didn't say good night.

Look, he didn't mean anything by that. I think...

I think he just needs a little time alone right now, okay?

-I hope he feels better soon. -I know. I do, too.

But we can help him a lot now by just being patient with him.

[doorbell rings]

[sighs]

Look, whoever it is, just send them away,

-and then we'll go to my house. -Uh-huh.

-Okay. -Just a minute.

[doorbell rings]

[clears throat]

Hi.

Gary.

I was in the neighborhood, and I thought...

[Valene] That's okay.

[crickets chirping]

I heard about Bobby.

Sorry about your brother.

Thanks.

[Gary] Look, uh, I'll come back another time.

[Valene] No, uh, stay.

Uh, y-you can't go without seeing the babies anyway.

Please come in.

-We were just uh... -Yes, please stay.

Uh, okay, for a moment, to see the babies.

-Okay. -Oh, congratulations.

-For what? -The babies.

-Getting your babies back. -Thank you.

[Valene] You won't believe how beautiful they are.

[Gary] Oh, I'm sure I won't.

[Valene] Gary, I've been thinking, um...

I'd like to name my little boy Bobby.

If that's okay with you. Would that be okay?

[Gary] Yeah.

[soft music playing]

[birds chirping]

Shh, honey. Let Gary sleep.

He's very tired.

I like it more every time I see it.

Yeah, well, I hope Joshua likes it as much.

Oh, he will. I wanted to see it again to be sure, and I love it.

Yeah, you and three other couples.

Laura, I know she's your friend,

but I can't hold that place forever.

Well, she wants her husband to see it, right?

[man 1] Well, what if he doesn't like it?

I just can't keep putting off those other people.

I quit showing it as a special favor to you.

I'll tell you what. I'll give you a check right now.

First, last, and deposit, right?

Well, Cathy being your friend

puts me in an awkward position, Laura.

I mean, what if your husband doesn't like it?

I know I forfeit the check,

but don't worry, I'm sure he's gonna love it.

Alright, just as long as we understand one another.

Great. Thanks.

-Can you believe that? -Oh, that's great!

-Morning, Ben. -Hey, boss.

Looks like Joshua's ratings are slipping.

Oh, there is justice in this world.

What seems to be his problem?

Nothing, nothing except that Mr. Joshua Rush

feels he can say anything on any subject

and answer to no one, not the FCC,

not the targets of his criticisms, not to you.

I think I'm the wrong guy to be asking about his problems.

He doesn't operate by any standards I ever heard of.

Well, Ben, you're a journalist. He's not.

Exactly.

I am a journalist.

I was trained to differentiate

between fact and opinion.

Joshua doesn't even try.

I have to substantiate every claim that I make.

Joshua feels that he can say anything

because his claim is to a higher...

to the highest authority.

Do you think there's any way we can salvage the program?

If I had the authority, I...

You do.

-No, I don't. -Yes, you do.

I'm promoting you. You are now general manager of this station.

Congratulations.

-General manager? -Mm-hmm.

But why me? Why now?

Well, to tell you the truth, I'm real busy at Lotus Point,

and uh, I want somebody here

who can make sure situations like this don't happen anymore.

Oh, by the way, uh, a raise goes with a promotion, of course.

I know you'll be needing it

with marriage right around the corner,

and we all know how expensive

children are these days, don't we?

Daddy.

Well?

-It's not bad. -Does that mean you like it?

It's perfect, and you know it.

Oh, I knew you'd like this place.

Did I find us a great apartment or what?

I mean, it's beautiful. Come on, admit it.

Okay, then tell me one thing wrong with it.

I dare you. One thing.

See, you can't. [laughs]

I take it you like this place.

Oh, yes, and you like it, too.

I can tell. Come here with me.

You know what this is?

[sighs] Let me guess.

This is our bedroom.

Wait, you mean to tell me that you think that if you...

if we... that I'm gonna say yes?

Mm-hmm. It can't hurt to try.

Oh, gosh, if it means that much to you.

Oh, I knew you'd like it.

I knew I was right.

-It's already ours. -What?

Well, the landlord was pressuring me a little bit,

so I went ahead and rented it. I've got the key.

Cathy, I never expected a thing like that from you.

You're asking me to help you make a decision

that you've already made.

Nobody treats me like that.

Especially my own wife.

Why are you getting so upset?

You like this place so much, you live in it.

Alone.

[gloomy music playing]

Your turn.

He knows, honey. He's just trying to psych you out.

Um, honey, it's way past your bedtime.

You better go to sleep. Come on.

-Mom, I was waiting. -I know, I know. Come on.

You've got school tomorrow.

Kiss Gary good night.

Good night, Gary.

[gloomy music playing]

[gasping]

[whimpers]

Honey. Gary. Come on.

It's alright. Honey, it's okay.

Come on. Come on. It's alright.

It's okay. I'm here. I'm here. It's okay.

-It's okay. -[sobs]

It's okay. It's okay. I'm here. I'm here.

I'll take care of everything for you.
