Hi.
I wasn't|expecting an answer.
I wasn't expecting to tind|some crazy woman on the roof.
Wanna come up?
No, not really. I think probably that|the top ot the train might be otf-limits.
I know. How many times in your life you|gonna see a view like this? Come on.
Seize the moment,|Benjie. Come on.
I am. I'm eye level|with the sunset here,
so I have a better view|because I'm-
Come up.
Okay, buddy, this time, we're gonna|do it with a little more teeling.
- Okay.|- We're just gonna-
Echo!
I am alive!
Just a little- Open.|Just push out.
Push out. No one can hear you.|Just throw it out there.
I am somebody!
- I think-|- Oh, God.
I think He heard me.|Excuse me. I'm fine.
Let me show you how I do it.|Okay, ready?
All right, here we go.
Oh, God!
Stella!
Well, that was nice.|You know, I mean, as sunsets go.
This is interesting.|I don't remember the rooster car.
- Do you remember seeing roosters?|- No, I'm a vegetarian.
Oh, no, not again.|Didn't you two hear the announcement?
When we stop|outside Youngsville,
no one on the Savannah-bound train is|supposed to board the last three cars.
- We uncouple there, and then we reroute.|- What does that mean?
That means this train's|going to Chicago.
Aah!
I got you. I got you.
You try to seize the moment,|you end up getting yourself killed.
- Will you jump? It's not going that fast.|- It's too tast!
I got you. I got you.|There you go.
There's another one coming tomorrow|afternoon, or there's a bus station in town.
Okay, thanks!
I'm starting to get the teeling that there's|maybe a hint that I'm not getting here.
Just spell it out tor me!
- That pretty much spell it out for ya?|- I'd say it does.
Whoo! Yeah!|Whoo!
Hey! Come on!|What are you doing?
- Oh! Come on!|- Oh!
Whee!
Oh, come on!
Ah! It kills. It kills. Ah!
Ow!
- Not exactly a hub city, I guess.|- No!
But we'll come back|in the morning.
- What do we do tor the next 12 hours?|- Come on.
- I have an instinct about these things.|- No! It's hailing! No!
How are you?
It's so good to see you!
- You gotta see Linda. Remember Linda?|- Hi!
Hey, you guys, look who came.|Bridget's getting married this weekend.
Hey, hey, hey, hey
- Ouch! It kills! It kills!|- Hey, hey, hey, hey
Oh! Oh, man!
- It's open 24 hours.|- What are you doing? No, no, hey.
Benjie, they|cannot kick us out.
- Please, get up.|- Oh, God!
I love this place so much.
- Oh! Oh!|- This is dry. It's the best thing I can say.
Oh, my God,|this is heaven.
Baby has an old witch doll|My baby rang his bell
I didn't have the time to tell|my baby fare you well
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Takes him down.
I just wish we'd|stayed in touch.
- I regret not keeping the friendship going.|- We're triends.
Steve, triends.
I regret that too.
How can I just|let you walk away
Let you leave|without a trace
When I stand here|taking every breath
With you|Ooh, ooh
You're the only one who|really knew me at all
So take a look at me now
There's just|an empty space
There's nothing lett here|to remind me
Just the memory|ot your tace
Take a look at me now
- Do you remember that song?|- Yeah.
I thought you would.
All I'm saying is that I don't|understand the idea of living...
with just one person|tor the rest ot my life.
How do you make|a choice like that?
That's like choosing what|you're gonna wear in 25 years.
It things worked that way, everyone|would still be wearing hot pants.
- Ya dig?|- I never wore hot pants, so there goes your whole argument.
Hey, life is supposed|to be a ride, right?
You want to be on your deathbed saying,|"I played by all the rules," or "I lived"?
'Cause I lived. I loved.|I tought. I broke hearts.
I screamed. I bled.
I guess thinking like that can explain|your hostility toward marriage.
I don't have hostility toward marriage.|I just have hostility towards my husband.
You're married?
Yep. Twice, actually.
you saw him. I was|kissing him at the airport.
My husband Carl was a hustler|from the first day I met him.
Who am I to talk?|I was a dog walker.
He convinced me I should invest|in a bagel store down in Savannah,
because he thought they couldn't|make good bagels.
That's why they lost|the Civil War.
Of course, we had|to invest all my money,
because Carl's was tied up|in some phony tax shelter.
- Is that your $25,000 you were talking about?|- Yep.
I am going to sell the place,|get the last in a string of divorces.
Ot course, he doesn't|know about it, or the divorce.
Wow. What a story.
So do you think it's|a terrible thing I'm doing?
You know,|deceiving my husband?
No, I-|It's none of my business.
Well, I do.
Beg you listen me, don't be|kissin' me till I'm done
I'm some champion of reason|like seasoning
Pepper your thoughts with spice|and entice you to a space
Where bass players|or layers are leaps
Think what I think|with my prayers, it's nice
My world is everything|I've become contained
In the hum|between voice and drum
I'm comin' from the same place|I'm still runnin' from
Even sittin' in the garden|I can still get stung
- Hi.|- Hello.
I'm gonna go outside|and take a walk.
Will you watch|my stutt tor me?
- Yeah, sure.|- Okay.
My Jesus
Mr. Spiro, hi.|It's Sarah Lewis.
Yeah, listen, I'm on my way down to sell|the bagel shop. I should be there-
What?
No.
Mr. Spiro, I think|that's a misunderstanding,
'cause the man who called couldn't|possibly have been my husband.
No.
No, Mr. Spiro, actually, my husband|- He's coming with me to sell the property.
- Hi.|- No, no, no, no. I have these. How ya doin'?
- It's okay. I can pay for them.|- It's the least I can do.
- Two tor the 9:
30 to Savannah, please.|- Thank you.Residents of Savannah,|Georgia, are at risk...
for the hurricane to make landfall|by tomorrow afternoon.
Where's my wallet?
Fun in the sun.
You've already won.|We're taking you to Miami.
Hey, Ben,|you know what this is?
This is one ot those real estate things|where they give you prizes.
You look at one ot their condos. I used|to do phone solicitation for these guys.
I was wonderin' why you hadn't|mentioned phone solicitation.
They'll take you anywhere it they think|there's a chance of you buyin' a condo.
I'm sure you've done this before,|but it's not my speed.
Benjie, make you|a deal, okay?
I will get you on the bus. I'll get you|down to Savannah for your wedding,
if once we're down there just for a couple|ot minutes, you pretend you're my husband.
What do I have to do? Treat you badly|and get you to make bad investments?
No. We have no other option.|What options do we have? Zero. None.
Yet still somehow, they seem|more appealing than this one.
I'm going another way.|Wait, Sarah.
- I don't wanna be your husband.|- Ben. Ben.
- Do you think I like these?|- I don't know. Everybody's ditterent.
No, Ben, this is not tor me.|This is tor a little person.
- I know, your nephew.|- No, not my nephew, my son.
- You have a son?|- Yes, I have a son.
I have a ten-year-old boy who lives|in Savannah with my tirst ex-husband.
