I Do... Until I Don't Page #7

---

The seller's very motivated.

It's really beautiful.

Oh! This is

the seller's agent.

Honey, what do you think?

So just-- why don't you

just take it all in?

I won't be a sec.

Wanna look over there?

Yeah.

Hello.

Hello?

Mom?

Milly? Oh.

Hello?

Oh, honey,

i can't hear you.

I'm gonna call you back.

What?

Hey, it's milly.

Leave a message.

Oh.

Okay, I guess

you're in a bad area,

or maybe it's me.

I don't know.

I couldn't hear you, honey.

We-- we're so excited

that you're coming.

Um, i--

it's been so long.

I feel like I'll hardly

recognize you.

But I will.

I mean, I will, of course.

It's not even a nice thing

to say. I'm sorry.

Um... okay.

Well, call me when you can.

Okay? I love you so much.

So-- so what's the catch?

Call me.

I mean, did someone die

in here or something?

Uh, yes,

but natural causes.

Wait, what?

I've actually

got one that I think

will work for you.

Yeah?

Yeah.

It's an s1k that

we picked up from a yard

in Rhode Island.

Okay.

It's a little rusted out,

but I can sand that out.

It'll rig on there okay?

Oh, yeah.

I can prep the mount today

and then you can take it on

and off whenever you want.

I've never ridden

with the extra weight.

It's like training wheels.

You just gotta be careful

around the turns.

But it provides

extra support.

Sure, sure.

You got yourself

a copilot?

Uh-- well, in theory.

Oh. Is this

a special occasion?

Hopefully. Yeah.

Yeah.

Yeah. Okay.

I am so thrilled

we can make it work.

Me too.

Thanks so much.

All right. You got it, Mike.

You got it. Paperwork's

on its way to you.

Uh-huh.

Ha!

Okay.

Here we go.

What--

i just signed it.

I don't know

the password.

Is this it--

milly's not coming.

Hmm?

What'd you say?

How's the sex?

Horrible.

It's great.

He wears his glasses

during cunnilingus.

I did that once.

Well--

I am never gonna

live that down.

My vagina felt inspected.

I felt that I was under

scrutiny of some sort.

Why do you think

i can only come

when I have to pee?

What does that have

to do with anything?

Alice, what is going on?

- Can we turn the camera off for a second?

- Of course.

Noah.

What-- what-- this vibe.

I was just being honest

for the sake

of artistic integrity.

A noble cause.

Okay, excuse us.

I just was trying--

sorry. Come here.

Noah.

Pan out, pan out.

What?

Listen.

What's wrong?

Every time we come in here,

you make it seem

like we're miserable.

I think we have

a pretty great life.

Don't you?

- Yes, sometimes, yes.

- Get in there.

I don't think

this is good for us.

I think we should bail.

We need the money.

F*** the cash.

Fanny's doing it.

Besides, we can't bail.

Is that what this is about?

Your maniac sister

is doing this.

You said we need the cash.

My maniac sister?

Jesus.

You said she's

the most athletic person

you know, so--

okay. Who cares?

Do you think about

sleeping with her?

What? Oh, my god.

Do you?

Why would you

accuse me of that?

I think I've been more

than patient and reasonable

with your moody outbursts.

For someone

who wants a baby so badly,

you're making it

pretty difficult

to want to have sex with you.

You're being irrational

and mean.

I'm being mean?

Yeah.

You're being mean.

I am so nice to you, Noah.

I play tennis for you.

I let you smell my mouth

before I brush.

I listen to widespread panic

for you.

What about me?

What about you?

Well, okay, the most

creative thing I have done

in the past three months

is hem your f***ing pants,

Noah.

Well, there's--

don't bring up

brewing blinds.

Brewing never needs

any new artwork,

and that is the truth,

because you insist that

"we need a visual

that clients can trust."

Basic brand.

I understand that.

But you know what, Noah?

I could have moved

to New York without you,

because Terry Schultz

had that extra room,

and I could have dealt with

those cats easily if I just

took Claritin or something.

Then I could be getting

coffee on my lunch breaks

or buying gesso somewhere.

I could have a mohawk

right now, but I don't,

for you.

So don't tell me

that I'm being mean.

Alice.

No. I will not

have that!

Namaste.

Namaste.

Oh, god.

Fermented burdock?

No, thank you,

my love.

Fanny.

Yes?

No matter what roof

we've lived under,

whether it's tin

or hay or stars,

I feel like we've always

been transparent

with each other.

The hearth of truth.

Yes. The hearth of truth.

It's-- it's just...

This is--

is there someone you're

wanting to connect with?

Someone you're wanting

to bring into our bed?

No, it's not that.

I don't know if it's

because I'm getting older

or maybe

I'm losing my edge.

We haven't talked

about the fact

that neither you or I

have brought anyone

into our bed

in nearly six years.

Fanny,

you are so much more

than I could have ever

dreamed of.

And this hearth of truth--

our hearth of truth--

our fire...

I don't know

if I want to share

that warmth

with anyone anymore.

Jesus, al.

Knock sometimes.

I'm sorry. I didn't know

you were in here.

I really didn't.

That's why you knock.

Okay. Well, can i

just go pee?

Yeah. Of course.

No, alone?

Can I go alone?

'Cause i--

yeah, that kind of pee.

I got it. Yeah.

Thank you.

I'd like some privacy.

Yeah, I'm not really sure

if that's what I imagined.

Man, I get it.

It's hard to stick to

the one you're married to

when you could always have

the newer, sexier model,

right.

So, why don't you

live with it.

Yeah?

Right? And if it

doesn't turn you on,

you can always

replace it.

Good point.

Hey, Noah?

Mm-hmm?

Could I just talk to you

for a second, please?

Yeah. Sure.

Excuse me.

Okay. All right.

Sorry. Hey, I just

want to talk to you.

Okay.

Are you taking hydrocodone

because you want to

be with Fanny?

What are you

talking about?

I know you injured

your elbow three years ago

mountain biking,

and you took hydrocodone,

but there's no reason you

should be taking it anymore

unless you're deliberately

trying to sabotage our chances

of having a child,

which was your idea

to begin with.

Okay, where

is this coming from?

I saw you take those pills.

Those pills you take.

Vivian said I should

look out for signs,

and I saw signs.

I saw you

taking those pills.

She said Fanny was "abounding"

with all kinds of stuff,

and we're all baboons--

stop!

Just stop, okay?

Just tell me.

All right.

I don't even know

where to start.

I have to, like--

i--

I'm not taking

hydrocodone.

I'm taking he shou wu.

It's for male pattern

baldness.

"Maherpatterbaldas"?

What's "maherpatter--"

male pattern baldness.

Oh.

Okay?

I got it from a Chinese doctor

that Fanny and Zander

recommended.

I didn't wanna tell you

because I want you

to think of me

as this viral, hunky man,

and not some old dude

with his hair falling out.

But why did you go to Fanny

to talk about that?

Why do you have this secret

meeting with Fanny?

Fanny! Fanny!

Something you won't even
