Marvin's Room Page #7

Hank?

I haven't had reason

to pretty myself up...

since, oh, I can't think when.

Well,

today is the day.

They almost got married

once before.

But Amber

set the church on fire.

Ha. So, is Coral

the same character...

who shot Lance's dad in the head?

Uh... huh.

And now they're getting married?

Well, he lived.

And she felt awful about it.

Huh.

Oh!

Oh, Charlie.

What a good job!

Ruth, you look beautiful!

Oh. Don't make fun of me.

I'm not.

I'm just a silly old woman getting

all dressed up for a TV show.

No, you're not.

Charlie, where's your brother?

I don't know.

Hank?

Hey!

Hey.

What are you doin' up?

Oh, I'm gonna get Dad's 1:00.

Oh, I was gonna do that.

I can do it.

You're supposed to be resting.

I am.

You want some snacks?

I'm making some nachos here.

Better just cut me up

some fruit.

Hello?

Oh, yeah. She's here.

What is it? It's Dr. Wally.

He wants to talk to you.

Ohh.

Uh, hello.

Oh, you did? Good!

Um...

Well, what is...

I see.

Then, I should keep taking

what I'm taking now.

No. No, no.

No. I understand.

N... I'm not. Okay.

Thank you.

Good-bye, Doctor.

Well, um...

They got the boys' test results back,

and it looks like it didn't work out.

Oh. Well, I mean, it's, it's

pretty much what we expected.

We knew that the...

What?

Maybe they should do the test again.

Maybe they made a mistake.

Maybe. Now...

I'm gonna continue taking

the therapies I'm taking now.

That's good. That's real...

That's good, because...

those are good things to be doing.

Okay.

Um, we should tell

the boys.

Well, I was in the middle

of doing something. I...

What was I do...

Lee? Oh, Dad!

Oh.

You wanna go lie down now?

No, no, no, no.

I'm...

I'm fine, I'm fine.

I just, uh...

Here, I can do this.

I just, uh...

No, no, no, Lee.

It's okay.

Oh, Lee.

I've been so lucky.

Oh, Bessie.

I've been so lucky

to have Dad and Ruth.

I've had such love

in my life.

You know, I look back...

and I've had such...

such love.

They love you very much.

No, that's not what I mean.

No, no.

I mean that I love them.

I've been so lucky to have

been able to love someone so much.

Yeah, you are.

Yeah.

Lee,

we should tell Hank, huh?

About the tests.

Yeah.

We will.

I better...

I better...

Where'er you going'?

Uh, uh, I'm going'...

Goin' into the kitchen.

Nobody's had any lunch yet,

have they?

Hey.

What?

Oh, nothing.

But just... If you decide to take

a ride or something, just...

You oughta let me know.

I worry about you.

Okay.

Okay.

Dad? Look.

Ooh.

Hi.

Ooh.

Around and around.

Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Yes.

Ooh, Ooh.

Dad.

Oh, see?

See?

Just us.

Look. Dad, look.

Lee's here too.

You know Lee, don't you?

Bessie! Oh, Bessie!

You missed it!

Coral finally married Lance.

But now,

wasn't Lance married to Coral's mother?

No. Coral was married

to Lance's father.

He's really a nice boy.
