Wait, watch it, watch it, wait!

Stop, stop!

Jesus Christ, what's

wrong with you?

Don't you see that?

What the hell are you doing?

It's a goddamn wall scratch.

Are you stupid?

- Oh, my god...

- So where's Ramona?

Did you drive separately?

She doesn't drive.

I know she doesn't drive.

Don't attack me.

I can't do this today.

Esther:
Are you taking

those vitamins I gave you?

Dr. Chan says you gotta

take 'em every day.

You don't want to end

up like my uncle Gomer.

Dropped dead

right at his car dealership.

He was your age when he died.

That's not that old.

His heart stopped working.

Just didn't want

to work anymore.

Ramona:
You never

thought about being

with another woman. Really?

I think you would like

seeing someone else.

I gave you ten years.

Are you listening?

- Hola, Howard.

- Hi, Rosa.

- Say thank you.

- Henry, come here, buddy.

- Yes, I understand.

- All right, how are ya?

I've already been on hold

- for like 20 minutes.

- Still single, right?

- I just have...

- Keep your options open.

Yeah, I can hold, one second.

- Hi, dad. Hi.

- Hi, sweetheart.

- How are you?

- Great.

- I understand, I just...

- Ah, sweetie, do me a favor.

Please explain to Rosa

I just had these walls redone...

Team, let's go in the kitchen.

Let's help out a little bit.

I don't do it how

your mother likes it.

My mouth is so dry.

I'm so sweaty.

I'm so hungry.

They put out snacks,

and I really want a snack.

Will you go get me one?

Please will you

go get me a snack?

No, no, no, don't go.

I shouldn't... you know what?

I should've just brought snacks.

It's fine, it's fine.

My head is seriously killing me.

It's like there's a knife

going through my face

and then there's

heartburn in my chest

that turns into this...

Cramp like inside of my stomach.

That's like a stake just

stabbing me through my insides.

Why aren't you saying anything?

What, are you depressed?

Unclear.

Esther:
What is all this food?

We have so much food.

Why bring food?

Adam:
The girls

can be picky, ma.

- Esther:
I'm insulted.

- Don't be insulted, okay?

They're just picky.

Ma, don't look

for meaning in this.

Girls, why don't you play

in the front yard please?

This isn't a good time.

Pull yourself together.

Can you please help?

Is that something you can do?

I'll do it.

When my brother turned 50,

he lived in a place

like your place.

Bigger, but like your place.

No wife, no kids, no family,

no money, no nothing.

He went to a home for old people

because his brain was very sad.

He didn't remember anything,

but also, he didn't have

anything to remember.

He had nothing.

- Come on.

- No, no, you can stay.

- You don't have to go.

- I want to leave.

Ma showed us your advertisement.

The aids one.

It was hepatitis.

Adam:
Was it fun?

Loads of laughs.

You know, it seemed

real sad to me.

And I know that was the point,

but still, very depressing.

Probably because I know you.

And with stuff like that, you

don't usually know the people.

I thought...

With that kind of advertisement,

they would get people that

actually have the thing

that they're advertising.

You know, like they

do with no smoking.

You know, they have

people who have actually

had problems with that.

Like, there was that one

that was going around.

Have you guys seen that one?

It was the one with the woman

with the hole.

She has a hole in her neck

that's being plugged

with a tube...

So sometimes when

she talks, it leaks.

She has to wipe it

with a tissue.

It's very difficult to watch.

You'd remember if you saw it.

Gravelly voice, low.

- Have you seen it?

- Mm, yeah, it was a good one.

Must pay well, to have...

To have your face be the face

of something like that.

Did it pay a lot?

Can I get you anything?

So, are you doing any

more advertisements?

- Very good.

- You don't like it?

- It's fine.

- What does it need?

How the hell do I know

what it needs? I don't know.

I added coriander.

Ah. Well, it's like dog food.

I had an aunt.

She had a bad husband.

She had three bad husbands.

This one was very bad.

He talked rough.

One night he was sleeping,

and she took a frying pan,

she hit him in the face.

He wake up screaming.

She hit him in the back,

she hit him in the legs,

she hit him in the chest.

After, he don't talk bad to her.

You know the iron flight

of stairs behind the market?

Mm-hmm.

She slipped and lost control.

Her neck hit the railing,

and the back of her head

hit the stairs.

- I told you.

- It was hours

- before anyone found her.

- Ruthie:
I told him.

- Was there bleeding?

- A little.

But doctor Schlachter thinks

it's nothing to worry about.

She should see Chan.

She's not comfortable

with Chan, ma.

Ruthie, please pay attention,

you're gonna peel the skin

right off your fingers.

Mom...

Adam:
A call

would've been nice.

- Do you like chocolate?

- Henry:
Yes.

- Is it your favorite food?

- No.

Shana:
Do you think

aunt Ruthie and uncle Josh

- are your mom and dad?

- Yes.

But they're not

your real mom and dad.

Henry:
I know.

Where are your real mom and dad?

- Dead.

- How did they die?

They were killed.

Esther, you look beautiful.

Oh, and whatever it is you're

cooking smells gorgeous.

What, what is it?

You seem unhappy.

- Me? No.

- Yeah.

No, I'm wonderful, really.

I'm just a little tired.

You know, all the cooking.

I've been up since very early.

- Mm-hmm.

- I ran into Nessa last week.

Oh, she stopped

returning my calls.

But I hear she's thriving.

- Adam:
Dr. gold.

- Adam, you look beautiful.

Did you see? I had

the whole den entirely redone.

- I noticed.

- Beautiful, right?

The light fixtures are Italian,

and the rug is Persian.

But get this, I had the entire

bookcase hand-constructed

by an extremely well-known

Israeli designer.

Nobody brings anything

inside that room.

Zelda poured a glass of water

into a waste paper basket.

- What waste paper basket?

- The one in the living room.

Sh*t.

Ruthie:
So they don't feel

closure, and they're just trying

- to connect with her.

- Who?

The daughters with the mother.

She was murdered.

- Stabbed 30 times.

- That's terrible.

Yeah, and while she's trying

to connect with the mother,

the medium finds

herself in communication

with the stepfather.

- Well, that's nice.

- No, mom, that's not nice.

The stepfather was the killer.

Look, she can't even see him.

She can only hear him.

Smaller.

A little smaller.

Half.

I'm trying my best.

Howard:
Did you get

the flowers that I sent?

Yes, yes, they were divine.

Thank you.

Sharon was a good woman.

Well, she was one

of my best friends.

She was a miracle worker.

Did you know that we shared

an office for over 30 years?

Yeah, I know. Isaac went to her

for his mobility.

Hmm.

All of us are really still

in shock about the whole thing.

- Yeah.

- Did they get any money

- on that house?

- Well, some,

but it'll never replace

all that was lost.
