Hanging Up Page #8

Synopsis: Georgia Mozell, Eve Marks and Maddy Mozell are adult sisters. Georgia is the editor of her own wildly successful self-titled women's magazine. She strives for publicity at any cost. Party planner Eve is the mother hen of the group, not only of her own family, but also of her siblings and father as their mother, Pat, not only emotionally left their father when they divorced, but her daughters as well. And Maddy is a vacuous soap opera actress who has always struggled for her own identity. Despite being as busy with her own life as the others, Eve is the only one of the three who deals with the long term hospitalization of their cantankerous seventy-nine year old father, Lou Mozell, when he enters the early stages of dementia, and the associated outcomes of that hospitalization. Eve's caring for Lou is despite an especially hurtful incident with him seven years earlier. As the emotional aspect of looking after Lou becomes more and more stressful, Eve has to figure out how to maintain her

Georgia, it looks exactly right.

Are these onions supposed

to get this limp?

Yes, they are. It's called cooking.

That's what happens to an onion.

But wait. See?

That looks very good.

You have made my stuffing.

Let me see what this is like.

All right.

This is so good!

It's so good!

I can't believe you guys are doing

this. I can't believe it.

- Does it need more apricots?

- It doesn't need anything!

Please sit and have fun.

Enjoy your life.

We're supposed to put the stuffing

inside the bird with our hands?

You have to stuff it way

to the back of the bird.

It'll be goopy and awful,

but you have to do it.

Well, you enjoy that.

That's my gift to you.

You guys, listen. I do want to tell

you that I've decided to quit acting.

My character gets killed

in some random violence...

...while drinking a decaf cappuccino.

That's so sad!

And so I quit.

I'm sad for you. This is sad.

This bird is done.

You were good.

You were great, I'm sure.

Please open the door.

Is the oven preheated?

- Is it heavy?

- Yes! Could you help me?

It is really heavy.

You're strong. It's in!

You did it! All right!

Let's go sit with the bullet!

Do you wanna sit with the bullet?

- Thanks for helping!

- You're welcome.

You know what?

You're a little bit shiny!

This is Donna Karan!

Good God! That's Donna Karan!

No, wait a minute!

You can't stop me!

It's in your mouth.

No, Maddy. Eve, help me!

I have a Donna Karan dress...

Wait a minute!
