All of My Heart Page #2

I'M NUTS, BUT...

THIS JUST FEELS LIKE HOME.

PLEASE?

FINE.

I'M SURE YOU LOOK A LO BETTER

IN LACE THAN I WILL.

CAN WE PLEASE GO?

YES! YES. LET'S GO.

SO WE HAVE A DEAL?

YEAH. WE HAVE A DEAL.

[SIGHS HAPPILY]

I'M SO EXCITED!

HURRY UP.

IT'S NOT BRAIN SURGERY.

-YES, CHEF!

-YOU'RE LATE.

HANG UP YOUR COA AND GRAB AN APRON.

NO, CHEF.

CHOP THE RADICCHIO.

YOU CHOP THE RADICCHIO,

CHEF.

WELL, AS YOU CAN SEE,

I'M BUSY WITH THE MAIN

COURSE.

YOUR MUSTARD-CRUSTED SALMON

IS DRY.

I WILL NOT TOLERATE

THIS KIND OF ATTITUDE..

AND I WILL NOT TOLERATE YOU.

I QUIT. I QUIT.

[QUIETLY]:
WHAT?

[SMACK]

WAIT!

WHAT IS IT?

YOU WANT A RAISE?

NO. I'M MOVING TO BUCKS

COUNTY:

AND I'M OPENING

A BED AND BREAKFAST.

THAT'S NOT EXACTLY

A RESTAURANT.

WELL, IT'S CLOSE ENOUGH.

AND YOU KNOW WHAT?

SOME B&BS ARE ACTUALLY

KNOWN FOR THEIR FOOD.

A RESTAURANT YOU CAN SLEEP

IN,

HOW QUAINT.

WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS

SO HARD ON ME?

BECAUSE I KNOW HOW

TALENTED YOU ARE, JENNY,

AND I ONLY WAN THE BEST FOR YOU.

WELL, YOU COULD'VE SAID THA A LONG TIME AGO.

NO ONE EVER SAID IT TO ME.

WELL, THEY SHOULD HAVE.

WELL, IT'S ABOUT TIME

YOU HAD YOUR OWN KITCHEN...

CHEF.

THAT IS A TERRIBLE THING TO

DO.

WHAT IS?

MAKE ME MISS YOU.

OKAY. GET OUT OF HERE.

[ROARS]:
BACK TO WORK!

[STAFF]:
YES, CHEF!

[SIGHS AS BUSTLE RETURNS

TO KITCHEN]

[]

[BLEATING]

OH. I WISH I SPOKE GOAT.

[BLEATS]

WELL, YOU CERTAINLY

HAVE A LOT TO SAY, HUH?

I THINK I'LL CALL YOU GABBY.

OKAY?

[GABBY BLEATS]

WOW.

WELCOME HOME.

[]

[GASPS]

[SQUEAKING]

I WOULD SCREAM:

IF I WASN'T SO TIRED.

[]

"DEAR EMILY.

"WISHING YOU MY VERY BES ON THIS SPECIAL DAY.

LESTER."

WHO WAS LESTER?

I WISH I'D KNOWN YOU.

[KNOCKING AT DOOR]

WE HAVE A VISITOR!

I'M ALICE.

I LIVE DOWN THE ROAD.

OH! ON THAT BEAUTIFUL FARM?

YEAH, IT'S A LOT OF WORK,

BUT IT'S WORTH THE EFFORT.

THIS IS FOR YOU.

THANK YOU!

WHAT SMELLS SO GOOD?

WHERE DID YOU LEARN

TO COOK LIKE THIS?

[CHUCKLES]

MY DAD DIED:

WHEN I WAS A KID,

SO MY MOTHER HAD TO

WORK FULL-TIME.

I WOULD DO ALL THE COOKING.

I WOULD MAKE:

THESE ELABORATE CONCOCTIONS,

AND SHE WOULD PRETEND

TO LOVE THEM.

I DON'T THINK

SHE WAS PRETENDING.

DO YOU HAVE ANY FAMILY

AROUND HERE?

NO. I LOST MY MOM

A FEW YEARS AGO.

IS THERE A FELLA

YOU HAVE YOUR EYE ON?

THERE... WAS, YES,

BUT IT, UH,

IT DIDN'T WORK OUT.

MM.

DID YOU KNOW EMILY?

NOT VERY WELL.

SHE KEPT TO HERSELF.

I FOUND A CARD:

FROM SOMEONE NAMED LESTER.

YOU KNOW WHO HE WAS?

NOT A CLUE.

MAYBE HE WAS A BOYFRIEND.

I GOT THE IMPRESSION

EMILY WAS ALONE.

I DON'T LIKE TO USE

THE TERM "SPINSTER,"

BUT THAT'S WHA THEY CALLED HER.

WELL, MY PLAN IS TO OPEN A

B&B,

SO I'VE STARTED

EXPERIMENTING:

WITH BREAKFAST FOODS.

I SUSPEC YOU WILL DO WELL.

THANK YOU. IF I CAN EVER

GET THE HOUSE FIXED UP.

I WAS HOPING TO SELL

CROISSANTS AND SCONES

TO THE LOCAL RESTAURANTS,

JUST TO MAKE:

A LITTLE EXTRA CASH,

BUT I CAN'T EVEN

GET AN APPOINTMENT.

MY NIECE WORKS:

AT THE COFFEE SHOP.

LET ME SEE WHAT I CAN DO.

THANK YOU!

[BOTH CHUCKLING]

I'M FROM THE CITY.

I'M NOT USED TO MY NEIGHBORS

BEING FRIENDS.

I ALWAYS THOUGH THEY WERE THE SAME THING.

[SIGHS QUIETLY]

YOU CAN DO THIS.

HMM.

OH, THAT'S LOVELY!

CROISSANTS AREN' REALLY OUR THING,

BUT WE COULD:

GIVE IT A TRY.

YES!

OH!

IF THEY HAVE A PAYCHECK

AND A PULSE,

THEY'RE ALREADY TAKEN.

[SIGHS]

PERFECT ON PAPER.

HE WAS SMART,

HE WAS ATTRACTIVE.

I KIND OF THOUGH HE WAS THE ONE.

I DON'T MEAN TO PRY,

MY LIFE BLEW UP.

YOU ARE LOOKING AT A FALL

GUY:

BOSS:

JUST BLEW A BUSINESS DEAL,

AND I GOT BLAMED.

I WAS FIRED ON THE SPOT,

JUST LIKE THAT,

BEFORE I EVEN KNEW WHAT HI ME.

THAT MUST HAVE BEEN VERY

HARD.

TIME,

BUT YOU ARE NOT "GRATA"

JENNY, I HAVE NO PLACE TO

GO.

IN A BONUS I'M NEVER GONNA

DO YOU KNOW THAT I ONLY HAVE

$2,643 IN MY SAVINGS

ACCOUNT.

I USED TO BLOW THA ON A SUIT!

ARE YOU DRUNK?

[GROANS]

NO, I'M NOT DRUNK.

I DON'T DRINK.

DULLS THE MIND.

I JUST-- I HAVEN'T SLEPT.

I'M JUST SO TIRED.

WHAT ABOUT YOUR FRIENDS

AND FAMILY?

IF I HAD ANOTHER PLACE TO

GO,

JENNY, I WOULDN'T BE HERE.

OKAY, BUT YOU CANNO MOVE IN HERE,

BECAUSE WE DON'T EVEN

KNOW EACH OTHER.

WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

IT'S TEMPORARY.

AND TEMPORARY IS TOO LONG.

[GRUNTS]

SO WHY DON'T YOU STAY

IN YOUR HALF:

AND I'LL STAY IN MY HALF?

-RIGHT?

-YOU KNOW WHAT?

I DON'T MEAN TO BE RUDE,

BUT WE DON'T EXACTLY GE ALONG.

[LAUGHS]

WE'LL JUST AVOID EACH OTHER.

WHAT ABOUT THE KITCHEN?

IT'S MUTUAL TERRITORY.
