Are you going to help me?
l live to serve.
Make your wishes known.
- Pivot. Pivot.
- Hello.
Did l get you at a bad time?
l just want to set the date
for the end of the week for lunch.
How's Friday?
Friday.
Hold on one second, Harvey.
l have steamers in the fridge
from a week ago Sunday. You hungry?
No. l make it a practice
never to ingest bivalves
that have been dead more than 72 hours.
Christ, l need a drink.
This room just isn't right.
What are these?
[Amanda:
] Water-purifying tablets.What for?
ls the plumbing backed up?
Thursday's better.
What do you want to talk about?
The who, the what and the wherefore.
Thursday, lsabella's, at noon.
- Right. Bye.
- [Paula:
] No, you're doing it.- Just pivot it.
- What's happening here?
l have it under control.
Nothing that can't be done
with 12 stevedores and some oxen.
- Paula, where do you want this?
- Against the wall.
- l'll help you do it.
- Sir, would you take this?
Mom, here you go.
[glass shatters]
[Paula:
] Jesus, what a butterfingers.Watch your hands
when you pick these up.
- [Amanda:
] These things happen.- This can be glued.
l don't understand why those people
could leave the room
after the dinner party
and go home.
- What'd you think?
- lt was great.
Yeah, l agree.
Listen, l'm sorry about my mother.
- l know she's been out of control.
- Don't worry about it.
She is a little tough,
but nevertheless, l will gladly
help her with her singing act.
You are a sweetheart.
l don't know what l'd do without you.
l've got a great idea.
lnstead of going home,
let's check into a hotel.
Let's check into a hotel.
Maybe away from everything
in a completely different atmosphere,
you'll be more relaxed.
We used to check into hotels
all the time.
- lt was exciting and fun.
- But it was different then.
But it won't be different.
lt'll be just like we used to.
Come on, it'll be great.
Hi. How are you?
We're interested in a single room.
How much is that?
- A single room is $200 a night.
- $200. Wow.
lt's amazing how even
the cheapest ones have gone up.
Let's not get a single.
lt's so sleazy.
We're trying to be romantic.
You're right.
Um, do you have a small suite?
- A small suite?
- Very small.
Let me check.
l'll be right back.
Wow.
- Look at this place.
- lt's nice.
Thank you.
Have a good one.
- How much did you give him?
- Three bucks.
Not five?
Five?
He just turned the light on.
We have no luggage.
Should l have given him five?
lt doesn't matter.
l'm sorry. l'm just tense.
This is fun, isn't it?
lt's kind of sexy, being back in a hotel.
Should we order caviar?
Caviar? You just had
all that popcorn at the movie.
Plus the peppermints
and the ice cream sandwich.
l know.
l'm definitely going on a diet tomorrow.
l can't believe how much they charge
for a suite.
lt's not what l expected.
- ls that what you're thinking about?
- No.
No, l'm thinking of you
and how sexy you are.
- l need another.
- Come here. What's wrong?
- lt's too bright.
- Too bright?
Okay, well, l can fix that, l guess.
- ls that better?
- No, it's still too bright.
Really?
Yes. You know how hard this is for me.
Maybe it's because of this room.
l'll shut these off.
- There. ls that better?
- No. Turn that off.
You used to like making love
with the lights on.
Or in a sunny room in front of mirrors.
Remember?
- Can we start with the lights off?
- Okay. Not a problem.
There we go. How's that?
Thank you.
Come here.
You know how sexy you are?
Here... let's take off your sweatshirt.
l'll take my pants off here.
[coins falling]
[Amanda:
] Christ.[Falk:
] l'm sorry.l had all this change from the movie house
when l bought your popcorn.
l can't do this.
The moment's ruined.
That's crazy.
lt shouldn't be that delicate.
lt's not about should.
Look, l'm a wreck.
Okay, l'm sorry.
l'm sorry, but l can't.
l can't do this.
We'll start again, okay?
lt'll be fine. A clean slate, okay?
We got this room.
Let's take advantage.
We'll just start over, okay?
Come here.
[kissing]
See? lt's nothing we haven't
done before, right?
Jerry?
Jerry, l can't breathe.
What do you mean?
- l can't...
- What do you mean?
l can't breathe.
My throat's swelling.
- Your throat's not swelling.
- lt is. This has happened before.
Why don't you sit down?
Amanda, sit down for a second.
You want me to get you some water?
- No. l feel nauseous.
- You're not nauseous.
- l am.
- Just, just take it easy.
Amanda, do you want me
to open the window?
Maybe you need some fresh air.
You're getting pale.
Are you serious?
[wheezing]
l need a doctor.
You don't need a doctor.
Just lay down for a second.
l'm really dizzy.
All right.
Just, um, hold on.
Just, um, breathe
through your nose, okay?
Come on.
Come on. Here.
[Amanda:
] Leave a tip for the maid.[Dr. Reed:
] So, if l pushon your chest here, do you feel any pain?
[Amanda:
] Well, it's right underthe breast l get a shooting pain.
- Your left breast?
- Yes.
Have you ever had a reaction
like this before?
Yes.
Do you have any allergies?
l hope not.
l'm just checking
your glands right now.
- You take all these pills?
- Yes. They're different diets.
Then l have my antidepressants
and my sleeping pills.
But they have opposite effects.
l don't take them all
on the same day.
You had a few vodkas, you say?
Breathe in.
Hold. Let it go.
Why do you use diet pills?
l have some trouble
with my weight.
You're not overweight.
You have a lovely figure.
Lean back.
This doesn't hurt, does it?
No.
- You're a very beautiful young woman.
- Thank you.
Yeah, breathe. Good.
The doctor had better sex examining her
than l've had in 6 months.
She has this wayward appeal.
Men go instantly crazy for her.
What do l do?
l'm trapped in a situation here.
What do l do?
Say something.
Our time is up.
Suppose we continue
at our next meeting.
Mr. Falk, l would like to say that
l will stop treating you if you
insist on keeping that rifle.
- What? Why?
And it's more to your advantage
to talk about it than act out.
But Dobel thinks in the end,
we can only count on ourselves.
l'm afraid our time is up.
lf you don't get rid of the rifle,
l can't continue the analysis.
- Jerry.
- Hey, Bill. How are you?
l'm good.
So, what are you doing here?
l'm having lunch
with my manager, inside.
That Harry Wexler clown?
l saw him go in.
Harvey. Yeah, yeah.
Nobody understands
why you don't lose him.
- Lose Harvey?
- The guy is a joke in the business.
- Oh, yeah?
- Yeah.
l'm telling you this as a friend.
You're starting to happen a little bit.
You don't need a character
like this representing you.
Thanks. l'll certainly think about it.
- How's your girlfriend?
- Amanda? She's good.
She's studying
acting and singing.
Promise me one thing.
You guys ever break up,
you give me her number.
Just kidding.
Except l'm deadly serious.
