How does that make you feel?
Well, he's already away a lot,
so it doesn't really
matter that much, but...

That wouldn't be fun.
Maybe it would be better
if they were separated.
Mmm-mmm.
No?
That's not good.
Right.

I'm getting lonely here.
I need some help. Just,

I don't trust you.
Am I imagining things?
You're not imagining anything, honey.

just 'cause of two f***ing times.
She couldn't even speak English.
Look at our life. You're
driving the kids to school.
You're picking them up.
You're like a single mother.
And you're not a single mom.
You're my wife. You're my baby.
I shouldn't be in China
trying to sell Oreos to people who
don't want to f***ing talk to me.
I'm gonna get a normal job. I'm
gonna be just around the corner.
It's just gonna be you, me and the kids.
All I want is a fresh start.

(GRUNTlNG) Oh.

was just a flirtation.
It was nothing. He really

Well, it's good to see you guys, though.
What's going on? Laura?
What the hell is going on?
Uh... Ask her.
I was so mad at you for the
way that you've been treating me
that I was on my way

to find another place to
live when you got back.
But then... I came here to stop her.
CLARKE:

Where is he? George, where is he?
He's at your house.
He's at our house? With our kids?
LAURA:
Please don't getthat look on your face.

It was a mistake. I'm gonna kill him.
No, no, no, no, no.
I'm sorry.
You're sorry?
I came here to stop... Who are you?
I don't know. Who are you?
(SlGHS) What are you doing here?
I was trying to help you.
Get the f*** out of my life!
Okay.
Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no. Oh, no.
Where is it? Where is

So stupid! Stupid sh*t!
I wanted to tell you I miss

You've gone crazy!
You're a lightweight...

...named lra Wiener! Ira Wiener!
You should have died!
Well, I ain't going nowhere!
I'm never gonna die! I hope you die!
I'm never gonna die, baby! Die!
Boys, stop it! IRA: I

I know what you're trying
to do, the pair of you!
You're trying to distract
me so I won't hit him!
Lackey! Lackey!
IRA:
Wait!Oh, sh*t, Clarke! Dude!
Are you okay, George?
Where's your stunt man now, hey?
Stop it!
Will you stop hitting me?
I'm better now, but it can come back!
Laura, tell him. Tell
him what you told me.
Tell him that you love me more
than you love him. Tell him!
Yeah, when she told you that,
did she think you were dying, huh?
Tell him. Tell him. Is it me or him?
Him.
What? Come on! Are you serious?
He's my husband. We have a family.
I love him.
And you didn't even cry
when Mable sang Cats.
What's the matter with you?
I didn't want to lie. I don't know.
I've seen it on Broadway before.
It wasn't as good as it.
What are you guys doing on the lawn?
I'm hungry!
Nothing. We're just...
We're just mucking around.
Come on. Go back inside.
Sorry, George. I'll always love you.
But what are we gonna do?
I love you.
I'm sorry I came up here.
I shouldn't have come.
No, I'm glad you did.
Maybe when we're 70?
I hope you find a way to be happy.
Sh*t. He's coming back.
He's coming back. Let's go.
LAURA:
Clarke.You know what? I've just worked
out why all this sh*t has happened.
In the East, they call this karma.
And I have brought all this
sh*t upon us with my misbehavior.
That's why all this sh*t has happened.
This had to happen.
But some good sh*t's
gonna come from this.
We have to learn from
this, you know, all of us.
There's a good lesson here.
Underneath anger is hurt,
but underneath hurt is love.
You feel it?
Okay?
Yeah. Thank you.
I'm sorry about this.
Yeah, yeah. Don't worry about it.
Do you want me to drive?
(SlGHS)
No, you don't have to
drive me. I'll drive myself.
In fact, you're never gonna have to
drive me again because you're fired, lra.
You're the only person
that I've ever heard of
