Dark Circles
Hello?
Are... Are you okay?
Do you speak English?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. Here.
Come in, come in. Here.
I'm gonna get you a doctor.
Lie down right here.
You're okay?
Okay, yeah, just lie down.
Oh, my God. Oh, God.
Sh*t.
Okay.
Okay.
Oh, my God.
Please.
Please, please don't.
I'll do anything. Please.
Alex?
Alex?
What?
You thirsty?
Yeah.
Okay. All right.
All right. All right.
Careful.
- Thank you.
- You're welcome.
Thank y'all. Thank y'all.
All right, all right.
We let Alex shine a little bit
on that last one.
The bad news is our man won't be
with us too much longer.
He's decided to leave the nest.
Fly off on his own.
Think you can handle it?
All right. Two, three, four...
Look, there's a reason why you can
get a big house in the sticks for dirt cheap.
It's a wasteland.
It's not set.
I mean, one day she wants to go,
the next she wants to stay.
She's all over the map.
It's a pregnancy thing.
Well, if you think it's such a great idea,
then why wait?
I knew it.
You don't wanna go.
- You don't wanna go.
- It'll be fine.
Three hours away?
I'm never gonna see you.
I just can't imagine
raising a baby in the city.
This house, it is like
I mean, this would be a project for me,
not some client.
And Alex is cool with it?
Absolutely.
I mean, he's in the middle
of finishing up all these demos
and even ifjust a couple of them pay off,
then he can support me.
I'm very happy for you.
Thank you.
Oh, God.
You know what that look was, right?
Yes, I do.
I understand you're strapped,
but she'd be just as happy
with a placeholder ring.
I don't wanna be that guy.
I'm not gonna get her a piece of sh*t.
Okay, okay. I thought
maybe you were one of those people
who doesn't believe in marriage.
Your parents were married, right?
Three times each.
Now we're getting someplace.
So sorry.
When you stare at us while you're talking,
then we know you're talking about us.
Women have amazing powers.
Can I get you a non-alcoholic beer?
No, we have to go back to the office.
We have to finish up some work.
- Work?
- Yeah.
Yeah, you guys are going to Chippendales,
where some oily guy's gonna
give her a lap dance.
I don't have a lap.
Bye.
May I?
May you what? What are you... God!
Oh, my God, my back!
It's all these things
I never thought about before.
Like, I don't have a little brother,
I don't have a little sister,
I never even babysat,
and now I worry about everything, like,
what if I drop him on his head?
No, I'm being serious.
They come with skulls.
My mother's a disaster.
I mean, what if that's genetic?
What if I inherit
all her maternal incompetence?
I don't think there's a gene for that, Penny.
Penny?
- Penny?
- Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
- Yeah.
- Oh, my God!
- Yes.
- Oh, my God!
Michael. God damn it,
why don't you answer the phone?
Listen, if you're still with Alex,
tell him we are at the hospital.
We can't a hold of him and Penny is in labor.
Call me when you get this.
Okay.
- It's gonna be okay.
- Okay.
I missed it.
It happened really fast.
I can't believe I missed it.
Come in, come on, here.
Hey.
Okay.
Thanks.
Hey.
So tell me everything.
Honestly, I don't even remember.
It's like I blacked everything out.
He's so cute.
You're so cute.
Okay. This is your dad.
Hey.
That's your dad, huh?
Boy, we can just
about handle anything now, huh?
This side is up.
Hey, I know you're working,
but I talked to the realtor in Stanton.
I told him if he cut his fee in half,
we could close the deal right now.
He must be sick of my haggling
because he went for it.
I just think we have to do it.
It's such a steal.
We'd be crazy to pass this up.
And I really believe
I can turn it into something spectacular.
Anyway, I'll grab something from Carmines
on the way home.
We can start hammering it out.
I just wanna make sure
you're okay with this.
If you're having any doubts at all,
just let me know. Okay?
I love you so much.
Well, it looks a little dreary
in the late months.
But you know, in the spring with plants,
trees, I mean, it's gonna...
We could just paint it, paint the brick.
It's from Michael.
"May this beautiful tree
represent your growing love
"and blooming hopes, and blah, blah, blah."
- Does it really say, "Blah, blah, blah"?
- Yeah.
Tanner.
Hi, buddy.
You just hangin' out?
Oh, yeah.
Inspired yet?
There's something I don't mind
being left behind.
Yeah, just something else
we couldn't have in the city.
How would you like your rib-eye cooked?
I'm sorry. You okay?
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
Get rid of that thing.
Well, now everything we cook's
gonna taste like baby.
That's not funny.
That's in the kitchen.
Out back. And this one goes upstairs.
Hey, hold on! Hold on!
I'll... I'll help you with that.
Here, I'll get the door.
This was... This was supposed to be gone.
Can your guys get this sh*t outta here?
No, no, no.
You gotta arrange for a junk man.
I cannot put my piano
in there with this stuff.
So what, just leave it here on the ground?
What is all this crap?
Sorry.
How's little T?
He's good. He's napping.
Can I give you a hand with anything?
No, but maybe later
you could help me with the monitor?
Okay.
Poor girl.
Probably wondering
what she did to deserve this.
A lot of crap in here.
Sh*t!
No!
God damn it! God damn it!
Are you on channel A or channel B?
Channel B.
Got it.
Should I put it back on the shelf?
You don't have to yell.
I can hear you through the monitor.
Okay.
Yeah, put it back on the shelf.
I think you have it pointing at the ceiling.
You need to point it down to the crib.
All right, that's it.
Just move it a little bit to the left.
What's wrong?
Oh, God.
Where are you taking my mom?
I'm sorry, babe.
I love your mother, but the effect
with the camera was a little creepy.
- Well, what about the monitor?
- It's good.
Move it two inches to the right.
What's goin' on with him?
I don't know, but I cannot go back in there.
That counts as a turn.
Oh, God.
What the hell is that?
Oh, my God.
- What's going on?
- Oh, my God.
I don't know.
- Let's go see.
- Yeah.
I don't understand.
I'll check it out.
Why don't you take him inside?
I'm gonna throw up.
How could we not know?
We saw it on a Sunday.
We moved in on a Sunday.
We can't live like this.
With Tanner not sleeping?
It was his first night like that.
We'll... We'll get rest.
You need quiet.
I'll manage.
I mean, that was the whole point.
Nah, we'll be fine.
I mean, how long can this last?
A few weeks?
B*tch!
Alex?
Son of a b*tch!
These dumbasses didn't
hook up the dryer exhaust.
I could hear you all the way
upstairs in the bathroom.
I didn't know I was that loud.
No, it must be the pipes.
Just another charming
idiosyncrasy of this house.
I got it.
You know, I don't like you
leaving the baby alone up there like that.
No, I... I've got the Internet hooked up.
