No, it wasn't a wrong number.
It was an announcement.
A ring a bell.
An indication.
For what?
Now, Vincent.
Now is the time.
Have you still got it?
What? Your secret?
Yeah, of course.
Sure?
No.
Yes.
Who are they?
My three secrets.
They're beautiful.
Thank you.
Where are they?
With my husband in Schenectady.
What are they doing up there?
Real question is,
what am I doing down here?
That's where I'm from, Vincent.
Born and raised.
My father was the janitor
at the grade school...
...and my mother left
home when I was 6.
Why?
To see if it was possible to
pretend the past never existed.
It's not possible.
Please, don't hate me, Vincent.
it would be you.
What's up? Seltzer water?
- Seltzer water, please. Seltzer water.
What the hell are you doing here?
Yeah, well, I guess I can
ask you the same question.
Does my mother know
that you have her car?
Does your mother know
that you're a stripper?
Give me the key.
Listen, I'm not trying to make any...
- Let me have the key.
You don't have it, do you?
You stole my mother's car, didn't you?
You're such a loser.
Hi, yeah, I like to report a stolen car.
Yeah, I'll hold.
Why are you even here, huh?
Yeah, hi, my mother's car was stolen.
Yeah, license plate number, hold on...
Give me that.
- Calm down!
You stole my mother's car.
- And you're a stripper.
Stripping isn't against the law.
- Oh, then it's okay for me to tell your parents of what you do.
No, don't you dare, you loser!
B*tch. Hooker!
Don't call me that!
I'm not a hooker!
Showing your tits for money,
what's that called, librarian?
I got suspended from school, alright
and I lost my scholarship.
It's just so I could
make enough money
so I could go back and have to tell my parents.
And I'm the loser, huh?
Come here. Come here.
- Get off. What are you doing?
I'm bringing your mom's car back
with you in it, you know, I really delivered.
And only you know, I took it.
And only I know you work here.
And that's gonna be the deal with us forever
until one of us blows it. That's how it works for us, Vivian?
That's how it's gonna work for you and me.
Got it, Vivian?
Take these off!
Why did my father
even bring you home?
I have no idea.
Did something happen between you and my mom?
- No.
Are you gonna tell them that...?
Hey, I gave you my word, didn't I?
My word's my word.
Which something you and your jerk off family
probably never even heard off.
That's weird.
- What's wrong?
She's not home.
Maybe she went out for some food.
This is so nice.
Yeah, my grandfather built this house.
He's a builder.
Yeah, so, here's what I'm thinking.
Now, when she comes in.
I'm just gonna say straight up,
I'll just look at her and say:
"Joyce, it's time we gotta talk."
Vincent, darling.
That's the wrong way.
Women, they feel...
challenged by too much honesty.
No, you gotta trust me on this.
After 20 years with her,
I know what I'm talking about.
Vincent.
- Why?
Darling, 30 years I've been
a woman. Let me handle her.
Remain casual and don't mention
about anything unusual going on.
Before she can even think and ask
what I'm doing here...
she'll be thanking me.
For having come into your life.
Hey, how are you doing?
You're home.
Yeah, Vince, I'm home.
Where I live.
Yeah, where you live.
Who's this?
- Who's this?
I'm Molly Charlsworth.
It's such a pleasure.
Yeah, Molly wants, see...
Molly here and I we got some...
we got something we wanna tell you.
Something we want...
Go ahead, tell her.
Well, I have something
I wanna say too, Vince.
Yeah, but, we gotta tell you here
something that's very important.
Really? Coz what I gotta say
Yeah. But is it more important or
less important than what I gotta tell you?
Well, I don't know Vince,
I don't know what it is you gotta tell me.
May I just...
- Not a word, b*tch.
Hey, Joyce, you don't have to talk...
Freak!
- Freak?
You bring her into my home.
Into my own house...
where I raised your 2 children.
You bring this...
this thing of yours.
Let me tell you something, Vince.
I'm gonna do you a big favor.
- What?
I'm gonna put both of you
out of your misery.
I would not be insulted
in my own home.
I want you gone, Vince.
Out of my life.
No more wandering around behind my back.
No more dirty cheap little lies.
No more lying in bed...
wondering who else has been touching my husband.
No more lying to myself
that it doesn't matter.
It felt great.
I was touched and kissed...
...and held.
And I felt like you haven't
made me feel in years.
What are you talking about here?
Tony? You did something with Tony?
I did more than something with Tony.
Dear...
...great in script.
Vince, get the key,
the key, I need it now.
Me and you, we're gonna go
for a walk right now.
It's not what you think. Just relax.
Settle down.
A little walk and a long talk.
Put down the knife, alright?
- Stay right there.
What're you wearing over there?
What's that you're wearing?
Vince!
Yeah, you better run,
you son of a b*tch, I'm gonna kill you!
Dad?
Where are you going? You piece of sh*t!
You're a piece of sh*t...
...who screwed my wife and screwed my daughter.
And who's next? Who's next, my son?
Hey, didn't screw nobody, alright.
He didn't screw nobody.
Vince, you're making a big mistake.
Put down the knife, alright.
He's defending you.
Put down the...
He's defending you.
- Just put down the knife!
Oh, dad, totally lame.
There's no more knife, alright.
- Okay, no more knife.
Peace, okay.
I don't know what you think
happened here but peace okay...
and we can talk.
- Okay, I'm sorry.
Leave him alone, Vince.
Rough.
Vince, stop it!
Stop it, Vince!
He didn't do nothing.
Hey, get off. Get out of here.
Do nothing? What about all that passion?
And all that crap you're talking about..
Yeah, what about yours?
Your Molly Ringworth over there.
Who I'm supposed to thank
for being in your life.
You bring your filthy girlfriend
into my house.
She's not my girlfriend!
I'm his manager.
Your what?
My manager for the Scorsese
and DeNiro movie.
What DeNiro movie?
I'm gonna be in a Robert DeNiro
movie with Martin Scorsese.
Your dad's an actor?
No, liar, he's a liar.
Oh, what kind of bullshit is that?
Actually, he hasn't been signed yet...
but he auditioned today and
apparently make quite an impression.
They called him back.
You went on a movie audition today.
That's right. That's what I've
been trying to tell you.
And Molly here she is a friend of mine...
a "friend". "Friend".
And we go to an acting class together.
And she's the one who told
me to go on the audition today.
And that's why I'm here.
And that's what's happening.
What acting class?
When do you take an acting class?
When I play poker!
It's the truth, you see...
Vincent didn't tell because...
