Maine. That's right. You said

Kay Iikes the ocean.

So, how was it? You going to go back?

Um, probably not. It's

a Iittle overpriced.

Yeah. I hear you, but, hey, if it keeps

the missus happy another year,

I'd say it's well worth the money spent!

Yeah.

Jon Ross came in today.

Mmm-hmm.

You'd think it was the first

time he'd ever heard that

October 15th was the deadline

for an extension.

The guy never filed on time in his Iife!

And we have the same conversation

every year.

Every goddamn year.

For 17 years.

Can you imagine that?

KRAIG KANN ON TV: Hi, again,

everybody. School of Golf

is back in session for another week.

This week, it is Chapter 24, "It's

AII About the Putting Stroke."

I'm Kraig Kann. This is the

professor, Martin Hall.

Putting. We're rolling it tonight.

Well, yes. We all want to

hit it fewer times...

(SIGHS)

EILEEN:
So you guys had fun, huh?

Kind of hard to get back

into the old routine.

Mmm.

What is it?

You Iook Iike you could cry.

No!

Do you still need somebody to take

care of that cat when you go away?

Oh, we already got the girl next door.

But I don't trust her. She's not bright.

Well, I could do it.

Really? Mmm-hmm.

Oh, gosh, are you sure?

Because I think I might have

a spare key with me.

And maybe I could stay over.

A night, or two nights.

Well, sure. You do that.

I saw The Caine Mutiny is on Iater.

Mmm-hmm.

You want to watch it? I don't think so.

I'm just going to go up to bed.

Kay.

I'm just a Iittle tired.

Is it really all that bad?

It's just expectations.

Like one of those makeovers, you know?

You Iook different for a minute

and then go back to yourself, right?

Right?

I don't know if I can.

What?

I don't know if I can go back.

(DRAMATIC MUSIC PLAYS)

You sure this is a gallon can?

Yes, sir, it's a Iard can. Just

took it from the pantry, sir.

I suppose you're wondering

why I called this meeting.

As you all know by now, we had an excellent

dessert for dinner tonight,

ice cream and frozen strawberries.

An hour ago, I sent Whittaker to the

pantry to bring me another portion.

(WHY? PLAYING)

# Why?

# How many times

# Do I have to try to tell you

# That I'm sorry for the things I've done?

# Ooh

# But when I start to try to tell you

# That's when you have to tell me

# Hey, this kind of trouble's

# Only just begun

# Yeah

(STIFLED SOBBING)

# I tell myself too many times

# Why don't you ever learn to

keep your big mouth shut?

# That's why it hurts so

bad to hear the words

# That keep on falling from your mouth

# Falling from your mouth

# Tell me why

# This is the book I never read

# These are the words I never said

# This is the path I'll never tread

# These are the dreams I'll dream instead

# This is the joy that's seldom spread

# These are the tears, the tears we shed

# This is the fear, this is the dread

# These are the contents of my head

# And these are the years

that we have spent

# And this is what they represent

# This is how I feel

# Do you know how I feel?

# 'Cause I don't think you know how I feel

# I don't think you know what I feel

# Why?

# I don't think you know what I feel #

Kay.

(SIGHS)

(MOANING)

You are beautiful. (LAUGHS)

You... You...

(GASPING)

(MOANS)

(SIZZLING)

I'm Iate.

Oh. Okay.

Well, have a nice day.

Okay.

Chicken tonight. Good.

With potatoes and maybe some spinach.

Good. No spinach. (CHUCKLES)

Okay. 6:
00? 5:30.

What's the matter?

What'd you forget?

(KAY MOANS SOFTLY)

(KAY GASPING)

(GRUNTS)

Have a nice day.

Arnold!

Arnie!

Hey! Hi!

Carol!

You got another corgi!

I know. This is Emma.

But three's the Iimit. I'm done.

How was y'all's trip?

Our trip was... Our trip was really...

You should come over tonight and

we'll tell you all about it.

That'd be great. I'd Iove to.

Yeah.

AII right. I'll see you guys Iater.

KAY:
Okay.

(LAUGHING)

That's not going to happen.

Kay. Arnold.

We are all here today to witness

the renewals of your vows of matrimony.

We are thrilled, and I especially

am very thrilled,

to be here and to be a part

of this very special day.

KAY:
Arnold, after 32 years of marriage,

I can honestly say that I Iove

you more than I ever did.

The day I met you changed my Iife.

It made my Iife.

And now I can't imagine Iiving

my Iife without you.

It wouldn't be any kind of Iife at all.

When I think about spending the

rest of my Iife with you,

I only regret it won't be Iong enough.

So I want to now

make this next chapter

of our Iives together

something that we'll both cherish.

I vow to watch more golf with

you without complaining.

(LAUGHTER)

I vow to watch Iess golf,

and to buy you good presents

that aren't for the house.

Maybe Iike jewelry.

Like jewelry.

Jewelry. Yes.

I vow not to cut my hair

any shorter than it is,

'cause I know you Iike it Iong.

Longer.

I vow not to complain so much.

If I can help it,

because sometimes there's something

that really needs to be complained about.

And I vow to go to one

of those sleep studies

Iike you've been asking me to go to.

And I vow to take you

somewhere once a year

that's more than 200 miles away from home

and isn't to see a family member.

Now, on this wonderful day,

I give you the rest of my Iife

and I thank God every day

that you're in it.

And I vow to tell you how I feel,

not just when you ask me.

And I'll tell you how I feel about this.

I Iove it. I Iove you.

(MOUTHING)

(LAUGHING)

We will have the ceremonial

breaking of the nose.

(LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE)

See? That wasn't so hard.

Thank you.

Yes, a big boy.

Congratulations.

(BRIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD PLAYING)

# We'll be lovers once again

# On the bright side of the road

(LAUGHTER)

KAY:
I'm so glad to meet you!

Finally!

Brad, Brad, Brad!

# From the dark end of the street

# To the bright side of the road

# Well, into this Iife we're born

# Baby, sometimes

# Sometimes we don't know why

# And time seems to go by so fast

# In the twinkling of an eye

# Let's enjoy it while we can

# Won't you help me share my load?

# Help me share my load

# From the dark end of the street

# To the bright side of the road #
