Four in the Morning Page #4
the least you can do is build shelves
for me to hang pots on.
- What wood would you like?
- Teak.
- No, pine.
Have you ever been in a pine forest
when they're tapping the trees?
It's very beautiful.
The smell is everywhere.
- Where'd you see that?
- In Canada.
- I told you we should emigrate.
- Hammersmith Broadway
is far enough away for me.
(birds squawking)
- What's your place like?
- Why?
- Just want to know all about you.
- There's time.
- There, all respectable.
- Do you need to be respectable?
We're there.
- I suppose we do have to get off.
- We always could go back again.
- I'm not serious.
Just love being on the water.
Oh!
- Here, hold that.
(laughs)
- No, no!
- Come on.
- I love you.
- Hm, what did you say?
- I said I love you.
I think I love you.
(soft music)
Say something.
- Thank you.
- My pleasure.
(soft music)
- I was just bringing
you this cup of coffee.
- I'll pour my own.
- I'm sorry.
I was trying to do
something pleasant for a change.
- I got glue on my nightie.
- How did you manage that?
- The baby wouldn't stop crying so I used
it to stop her mouth up.
- Look, I'm sorry if I upset you just now.
- Is Joe really staying?
- You heard me ask him.
- Where's he going to sleep?
- There.
- I see.
- Do you want this or don't you?
- No, I'll pour my own.
- Hey Jude, do you want some coffee?
Here, I'll pour.
Hey listen, a riddle.
What can go up a chimney down
but can't go down a chimney up?
- I know that, Joe, an umbrella.
- An umbrella, an umbrella, she got it.
$50,000 for the winner.
- She's so clever, you see, so clever.
Market research and all.
Has her own pocket money.
- Put that down.
- Then blames me
when she's tired in the morning.
- Fat lot of sleep we're
going to get tonight.
- Is he always niggling like this to you?
What was that, what was that?
Hey what who?
- I was talking to myself.
- Does he always mutter?
- You know how he gets.
- Hey Jude, how about you and me...
- I can't stop yawning.
- Well let's have a yawning party.
Yours and mine.
We'll yawn the night away.
- What am I supposed to do?
- Who was that, oh, Norm?
- I said what am I supposed to do.
- That's a very good question,
I'll tell you what,
have an audition, you can
audition for our yawning party.
Have a big yawn, big yawn.
Don't do that.
- You don't understand our baby.
Isn't that true, darling?
- Not surprising you two lovebirds
cuckooing around the hours.
- Lovebirds, he says.
Pigeons.
- Hello, city desk, yes?
Oh it's a private call for you,
sir, it's Mrs. Stockholm.
- Oh shut up.
- You're drunk, Joe.
- I'm not drunk.
- [Norman] He's sober.
- He's drunk.
- Go to bed, Joe.
- What for, for being sober?
- Go to bed, Joe, you can sleep inside.
- Well what about the baby?
- No.
- What about the lady of the house there?
proposition of your husband?
- Don't mind about the lady of the house.
You heard me say it'll be all right.
- Where are you going to sleep?
- Don't worry your head about me.
- I'm not worrying, I'm just asking.
I'll sleep in my old bed, where else?
Night, Joe.
- I'll take the coffee.
- Yeah, thanks.
Don't bother to wash them up.
- Jude will do them in the morning.
- See you then.
Of course, if you want any room service,
I'll be back like a shot.
Honeymoon couples are especially...
- Bed, Joe, please.
(muttering)
Well what exactly is the matter?
- What do you think is the matter,
why do you ask?
- I know you're behaving unreasonably.
- Well you try being kept awake all night.
- Go to bed then.
I suppose you've got to sit there moping.
- All right then, ask me how was my day.
- All right, how was your day?
- The same as yesterday.
- How was yesterday?
- The same as today.
- Heaven's sake.
It's not just that I went out.
It's not that, is it?
Look, Judi, what exactly is the matter?
- Everything.
the rest of our lives like this.
- You're going to go on with anyone.
- But I don't resent you.
It's just you can, you can get
out of these four walls.
You can see your friends,
you can go for a drink,
you can break away, I'm not prepared to cook
your meals and look after your baby and just
be here when you feel like it.
- Oh come on, darling,
that's your part of the bargain.
- No, a bargain.
- I'm sorry, but that's the way
society happens to be.
- I'm not talking about society,
- Well you're talking about us.
You weren't meaning the two of us.
- There happens to be three of us.
- But that should make
things better not worse.
- But it doesn't.
Does it?
- Jude.
- I haven't finished.
Why do we always have this kind of row
at this hour of the morning?
- Come on, let's go to sleep.
- No, darling.
- Do you think I like being like this?
- I don't like being like this either.
But you see, you always
put the blame on me.
You know, as though it's me keeping you
under lock and key.
All right.
I shouldn't have gone out tonight.
Does that make it better?
- No.
You know what happened to me today?
I just got one day older, that's all.
- And face got one more too.
How many has she got now?
- Four.
I'm going to teach her to bite you.
No, don't, just put it off
for another night.
You're hurting me.
- You're supposed to be my wife you know.
- You don't understand, do you?
- No I don't understand.
And I don't think I'm ever going to.
(door slams)
(soft music)
- You're very quiet.
- What do you want me to say?
- Say what you feel.
- I don't know what I feel.
I know what you want me
to say but I can't say it.
Not the way you want me to.
- Why can't you?
- I don't know.
- Wow.
Really feels like early morning.
These flowers need some water.
- Then let's go home and give them some.
- You found that easy enough to say.
- Why did you have to say that?
To get back at me?
- Yes.
- Very easy.
- I'm sorry I said I love you.
Probably didn't mean it anyway.
I just want to go home now, I'm very tired.
- Not now, not now.
- What do you want?
- I want you.
- But you don't.
- I do, I want to make
love to you, I want you.
- But you don't want me to say I love you.
- No.
- Well if I can't say what I feel,
I don't want to feel.
- Oh god, what a bloody waste.
Look, I'm...
something shuts down inside me and I...
all right, let's try, let's try
and meet each other halfway.
- Can you hear yourself?
I don't want to try anything anymore.
(dramatic music)
- You'll get a cramp in your neck
if you sleep there.
- There's not much point in sleeping at all.
(soft music)
- I dropped the tray this morning.
- Did you?
- Everything broke and
I had to throw it all away.
- I said I'd do it.
- I didn't do it properly.
- I'll do it properly for you
