you gotta go in after it,

but if it's a fish, you just let it

float downstream.

Uh, you can

if you'd like.

Hey.

Everything okay?

Come with me.

Hi, could you please turn that big heavy

bottle over, Maurice,

- while I have you?

- You got it.

See, my nails make

everything impossible.

You like bubbles?

I adore them.

Huh?

That was so easy for you.

You're so strong.

You work out?

No, I'm a strong guy.

I don't know why.

It's good genes.

Well, my mother

was a strong woman.

Mine too.

Hmm.

You know, we should

be talking business here.

Yeah yeah,

Dave said no flirting,

but I think he meant just me.

I mean, you can flirt all you want.

Go ahead. See if you

can get my attention.

Come. Show me

your meat.

Your partner seems

to think it's the best in the nation.

It's true.

Well, when you're all better,

you'll go shopping for a new fish.

Okay?

Good, now just put

your head down and be calm

and resty rest.

Okay. Bye-bye.

So of course to pass along

the savings to you,

we deliver

to you in quantity.

- You buy a whole side of beef...

- Will you bring it to me?

Myself personally?

Could you do me a favor

and just check it without the slide?

Yeah, uh-huh.

The same model withou...

Could you hold on

one second, please?

Hello? Suzanne.

I thought you were

supposed to be resting.

Yes, I am right here.

I'm still here.

Mm-hmm. Okay, what

I want you to do is calm down, okay?

Close your eyes and remember

there are so many things

to dream about.

An example would be

anything you like.

You like melon.

- You initial there. That's all right.

- Okay.

I don't think that's a good idea, Su...

you gotta calm do...

calm down, Su...

Suzanne!

- You didn't sign it. Did you sign it?

- Ay.

Hello, you gotta talk to her.

I think she's trying to kill herself.

Again?

I'm sorry, but I'm

really not a doctor.

Uh, you just gotta

talk to her.

Was about to sign

the f***ing check.

What am I supposed to do?

I'm not a doctor!

Oh, ju...

oh sh*t!

Suzanna, no no no, I'll be there.

Don't lock the door!

Suzy, no!

Suzy cut her wrist.

She says it's not for attention,

but I know it is.

I mean, I have to go.

I have to go and help her.

- I mean, we can meet later, right?

- We can't meet later.

We should take you.

Uh, we'll drive.

Okay, all right, let's go.

Let's go. We'll finish with this later.

- No no no. I shouldn't.

- He used to race.

Okay okay, let's go.

Close her in the car.

We could finish up

the paperwork now if you wanted to.

Yeah.

Ay, Suzy... she's like a friend

that I've had since I moved here.

You know, we've got

in trouble so many times together.

She taught me all

the bad words in English.

Like, you know,

like "f*** me" and "piece of sh*t"

and "motherf***er"

and "a**hole"

and "cocksucker"

and "blow me."

- That's pretty good.

- Yeah.

- It's good.

Suzy, Suzy!

Hey, you guys.

False alarm.

Totally false alarm. I'm doing much

better. Oh, you brought company.

Come in. I'm so embarrassed.

I've been yelling.

Did you guys

hear me yelling?

I can fly off

the handle, I admit.

Oh, wait wait.

Look, you guys.

Look look, watch.

Check it out, watch.

Ta-da!

I didn't even take

one class of nursing.

I could totally

be a nurse.

Ay, amiga, let me see.

What did you do?

Loridonna,

I didn't even bleed.

It's like... nothing.

Are you guys here

to kill me?

Ay no, Suzy, no.

That's the good doctor.

Oh my God.

Kissinger.

You... you...

That's me.

You...

You look weird.

Okay.

- Do you think I did the right thing?

- Ay, Suzy, please.

I don't know.

I think, uh, you drank a lot.

Don't you?

- No, l just...

- Yes.

I had like

just a little drink,

and I can't

believe you came.

You are such a good friend and you

brought... yay... people.

- We're in the middle of this thing.

- Let's just get the f***

- out of here.

- No no no.

She'll calm her down

and then we'll sign her.

I can't! I can't!

Just go. Go in there and occupy her

and send Loridonna to me.

- No way, no.

- What? Tell me why.

Maury, because

this is business.

Well, I know

this is business.

The doctor...

she wants the doctor.

She wants the doctor.

Just...

Dave, we're good.

I'll be

in the kitchen.

I think your friend has

everything under control.

Oh.

Yeah.

Dave's very good

under pressure.

Look what I found.

Ah.

You know what?

Maybe we should finish up here.

Maybe we should

have a drink.

We should probably finish up with

the little paperwork we have.

Are you a business-

before-pleasure kind of guy?

Well, there are a whole group of people

who think that that's the way to go.

- Uh, it's like you're worried?

- It's like I feel like there's like...

like peaks and valleys.

There's always...

but that's everybody, you know?

That's-that's... and that's

life, and I think that's God's plan.

- Peaks and valleys.

- Peaks and valleys.

Which is... which is

the bad part?

- Is it the peak or the valley?

- I would go with the valley

only because it's lower

than the peak and you just...

you know, in a...

in a whole state you feel that way.

Yeah, like you're just

like, out there alone.

- Right.

- You know what I mean?

You're so in control.

I like that.

Turns me on.

You're such...

a man.

Well, that's all an act.

Make-believe a lot.

I used to make-believe

all the time.

Are you

making-believe now?

Just... you know,

no girl is tough.

We cheat.

That's why you always win.

We should wrap up

the food business.

Yeah.

Yeah, we should do that.

We should...

just speed through

the paperwork.

Don't you think?

We will, we will.

- You're so right.

- See?

You're totally right.

- It's like "Be more solid."

- Yes yes.

Be more solid.

You have to want

to help yourself.

And I do!

I wanna help myself.

Well, you can 'cause there's

a good you right inside.

- You just gotta get the old you out.

- How do I do that?

How do I get

the old me out of me?

You've gotta... you've gotta be a bully

with it. You g... you can be a bully here

- and just kick it outta your body!

- I could like slam it!

- Kick it outta you!

- Kick it!

- L... yeah. Yeah.

- Right out!

It's not- it's not litera-

it's not... ah!

It's not literal, okay?

- It's kinda...

- Hit it which way?

- No, it's just inside.

- But which me am I?

You're the good you.

You're the strong you, okay?

Yeah. Oh...

Um, here...

- Here we go. This here...

- Okay.

...this is the old you.

- F*** you!

- Hey... all right.

F*** off.

- You f***er!

- Oh.

- Right. To be...

- You tried so hard to bury me.

- To bury... to bury you.

- I'm stronger than you.

- Much stronger than her.

- Stronger than you'll ever be.

- I'm just gonna check on Maury, okay?

- And you're so full of...

- Right, you are.

- Wait!

I'm... I'm not... it's okay. I'm not going

anyw... I'm not going anywhere.

I can't do this

without you.

It's okay, I'm here.

I'm right here.

Tony, you're home.

I'll be right back.

Oh my God.

- What?!

- Uh, you know, lj... uh, I'll move.
