Delivery Man Page #7

I just want to feel

like I have a part of myself.

The last ultrasound

that is on Friday at 2:00,

do you think that you can make it there?

There is no contract, okay?

They've broken the contract!

They break with the contract!

The man signed an anonymity

agreement for 693 donations!

He has a right to punitive damages,

because you should hear

what people are saying about him now.

- You have got to be prepared!

- I am prepared!

Well, then why don't you do it?

You're my friend, I'm sorry.

- I'm just so pissed off.

- Yeah.

So we hope that it has been made clear

that the intentional blocking

of this vital information

has had, and will continue to have

a negative psychological impact

on each and every single one

of Starbuck's children.

In finishing,

while the donor may have bargained

for confidentiality with the clinic,

and the parents may have

accepted that confidentiality

as a condition to receiving

the sperm donation...

The children didn't agree to anything.

Yet, they are the ones,

they are the ones most directly affected.

This makes no sense.

Thank you.

These are some great kids.

Without the anonymity clause,

none of them would be here.

And not to have these beautiful kids,

that would be a great loss.

We need the anonymity clause.

The court will now take

the matter under advisement.

How long could it take?

I don't know, David. I do not know!

What don't you know?

I know absolutely nothing!

My mother was right.

I'm useless and I'm out of my league.

You should have got

a real lawyer, David.

All rise!

You may be seated.

In the adjudicated action,

the parties will receive

a detailed document,

in which you will read

that Starbuck is entirely,

and without reservation,

entitled to remain

anonymous.

He will also be entitled to $200,000

in punitive damages

from the Graboski-Levitt Clinic.

You are adjourned.

Starbuck, therefore, will be entitled

to remain completely anonymous.

He also will receive

$200,000 in damages.

Yes! Yes!

Brett,

what's your reaction to the verdict?

Obviously, I feel great compassion

for the children.

But I am very, very happy.

I am very proud to have vindicated

my client and his rights.

And I want to say thank you

to my own children and to my mother.

Mom, I won.

I won.

And I just want to say, David, we did it!

No!

We did it, David!

- No.

- Who's David?

He's my lover

who has always been there for me.

And, David, my darling...

I love you, David. I love you, David.

Obviously,

a very emotional trial for everyone here.

Did you expect this verdict?

We're disappointed.

Our case was dismissed,

and we've now exhausted

every possible legal recourse.

But we haven't lost everything.

While we were told today there's no law

requiring Starbuck to identify himself,

there's more to this

than just legal obligation.

There's us, and there's him.

And beyond any law,

there are human beings.

So, ultimately,

the final decision is Starbuck's.

He's under no legal obligation

to identify himself.

But now that he's seen all of us,

he may well decide to do so.

That decision is his.

There has been a lot of

unfavorable comments about Starbuck

in all of this media coverage.

We would really just like

our father to know

that in our eyes,

he's not a criminal or a freak.

To us, he's someone

who gave life and happiness

where it was badly needed.

Congratulations, darling.

I had it.

I had pitched the perfect game

and I had to screw the whole thing up.

My mother saw the whole thing on TV.

Well, she must have been surprised

to find out that you had a male lover.

No. She said she always suspected it.

She told me we make a lovely couple.

And your kids?

- They think it's cool.

- Mmm.

I'm just wondering...

And really just theoretically, but...

If I decided to identify myself,

would I lose all the money

from the countersuit?

Yeah, I think you would.

Emma always says that, uh...

That I don't have a life.

So, um, I officially set out

to try and do the right thing.

It's harder than I thought.

Pop.

Pop, I'm Starbuck.

You are El Masturbator?

Yeah.

Now, for once in my life,

I'd like to make the right decision.

Once.

For once in my life, I would

like to be a normal person.

How would a normal person

handle a situation like this?

A normal person would

not be in this situation.

Let's just say that a normal person

had a slight lapse of judgment

and donated sperm 693 times.

What would they do?

What would my brothers do?

Your brothers are not mentally equipped

to deal with a situation like this.

When you get right down to it,

you're probably one of the

few people on this earth

able to deal with such a situation.

Why not just tell them?

As you know,

I have some money problems.

Yeah, your debts.

You know I grew up

in terrible, terrible poverty.

Yes, I know, Pop.

I know.

When I left Warsaw to go to the States,

my father gave me $10.

That was everything he had.

I couldn't turn down his help,

so I promised him I'd pay him back

1,000 times over, once I got rich.

My father died

when your mother and I

still didn't have a cent.

I always wondered

what was harder for him.

Not being able

to give his children enough,

or not being with them

when they hit hard times.

My great good fortune in life

is to see you boys every day.

That, for me, is success.

So, like my father, I want to help you.

Here is $10.

It brought me good luck.

With $10, I built my empire.

So, take the $10.

And also take...

It's your share of the meat store.

It's your inheritance, in small bills,

to pay off your debts.

I'm scared I'll disappoint them.

Why would they be disappointed?

I'm a meat truck driver.

I'm an incompetent meat truck driver.

True, you are incompetent.

It takes you four times longer

to deliver meat than anyone else.

But wherever you go, people love you.

They're going to love you.

Everyone loves you.

Thanks, Pop.

We'll be right with you, sir.

Emma!

Emma!

Mr. Wozniak?

You gave us a little scare, there.

Yeah.

Hi.

Mr. Wozniak?

Yeah.

Your family is here to see you.

Is he healthy?

Yes.

Does that mean he can work tomorrow?

This is weird.

Hey!

I lied to you.

I am your biological father.

And you have a little brother.

He was in a bit of a hurry. But...

He's doing very, very, very well.

Can we see him?

I'll find out.

Hey!

He's so small.

Emma.

Will you marry me?

Wouldn't you want to wait and see

if I get my figure back?

If you stay flabby,

I promise I'll get flabby as well.

I wonder if that's

the first time the word "flabby"

has been used in a marriage proposal.

Emma...

I'm Starbuck.

Why are you always scamming?

God, how could you think

that a marriage proposal

would excuse the fact that

you're the father of 533 children?

David! God!

How...

This is no longer your child.

I want to be very clear on two points.

The first point.

I said I was gonna change

as quickly as possible,
