I'm assuming my jewelry is safe?

I don't know that I can

actually guarantee that.

Well, then you better get home.

Alright, look. I got...

I got one more client

I gotta finished up with,

And then, I promise, I will race home,

I will take care of this.

Did you um... did you

know that she was coming?

She called me a couple

of months ago and said

She was thinking about leaving la,

Saving up for an air fare.

But I mean, I never thought that she

would actually show up.

Well she did and, she is under

the impression that she's staying with us.

She made herself right at home,

in the guest room. F***!

Alright babe, look.

I will take care of this.

We'll put her up in a hotel or...

No, no. It's totally fine.

I mean, you know, she's your sister.

I'm your wife, so...

we'll do the right thing.

Cool. Thank you.

Alright. See you tonight.

See you.

I know Linda was a pretty

screwed up kid.

You know, our dad died

when she was 16 and...

then she ran away

from home after that,

Moved out to la, so...

in Los Angeles...

not a recipe for success.

Guess who?

Ah... you know, Im just...

Im in town!

And ah... I just wanted

to call and say hi.

See how you've been.

How you been?

I need to see you. I'm here.

I'm in new York.

I thought maybe we

could get together.

I'm did hear actually.

Where'd you guys go

on your honeymoon?

Was it nice?

Come on. I just...

I just want to see ya.

You still there?

Listen don't be an jackass.

Just meet me for a drink, okay?

Yeah, okay. Hey!

Thanks.

Are you kidding me?

Oh my god!

I don't believe this!

Hi.

Your in N.Y.

Yeah. Here I am.

Wow. All the luck.

I was just rushing home

From work, to say hello.

But where are you off to?

Yeah. I'm on my way to meet a

friend for a drink right now.

But Im really glad

that I ran into you.

I'm kind of in shock.

Look at you, your all grown up.

When was the last time I saw you?

God. I must have been

a teenager still, huh.

You know when it was?

It was dad's funeral.

Yeah, that's right.

Neither one of us cried.

You still speak to your mom at all?

Or...

No. No I don't.

You know, and I don't have any plans to ah..

Reach out to her anytime soon either.

I can not say I blame you, either.

Um... is that Katies coat?

Oh, yeah, oh you know... 1

I just... I came right from la and

I was really unprepared for the weather,

Which is crazy,

by the way, and um...

I hope she doesn't mind.

Do you think it will be alright?

No, no. I'm sure it's cool.

You should know, though, that

I did not... I forgot to mention

maybe that you might be coming.

Because I didn't know

that it was set in stone.

Oh!... well that explains

why she was so weird this morning...

I mean, a little weird.

Um, look. I got to run, actually.

To go meet my friend but um...

Ill see you later, we'll catch up,

Maybe we can talk some more, you know.

I will be home all night so.

Excellent! Okay.

So see you then, alright!

Yeah. Welcome to N.Y.

And see you tonight, right?

Yeah absolutely. Yeah.

I'll see you later. Alright.

I don't know what buzzy

would say if you asked him this, but

I felt really close to him growing up,

you know.

He... he um...

was in the house all the time,

And when I was a kid... and uh...

Im really glad that I can come and...

see him for a little bit, I think and...

I don't know... reconnect with him.

Linda... what can I say about Linda?

You know what. I...

I can't say I really know her that well.

I was already off in college

When she was a little kid and...

you know I don't...

I don't really have any memories of her.

I miss him. I really do.

How does one book like more studio

time here... cause my band um.

How many in your band?

Um... there's me and three other guys.

You know, my wife owns the studio

we live upstairs so...

Oh cool. She's out at, you know she goes

to the country on the weekends.

It's this time that you know,

I can sort of sneak you in.

How old are you?

Well... how old are you?

Really?

Yeah.

Well that's good.

I was born in '87.

Mm mm. Hmmm.

I see.

And where were you in '87?

Well that's ah...

it's a long history, actually.

Yeah. I think I have

a good daddy complex.

Oh my god, you're

giving me a heart attack.

But I can't believe you

did that in one stint.

I know. And he didnt

even get this part here...

- what?

- See you later.

- What?

- What are you doing?

What do you mean? Nothing.

Why don't you just ask her out?

You know.

I mean, Im sitting right here,

but you know...

why don't her just ask her out?

I mean you know.

What do you mean ask her out?

I'm not... Im going over...

No. I can see you!

Through the glass, I can hear... pt.

P.T. Did you see him?

Did he not try to f*** or what?

Don't... get drawn into this!

Marsha, we've just

gone over the lines

And you're making

a big deal about this.

I do not understand this.

Don't lie to me.

I'm not lying to you!

That's all we were

talking about it!

Okay. Now you're the writer?

Youre the writer? And the musician?

And the owner of the studio?

Marsha. You know what?

No. That would be my job, okay?

You are here because of me.

You know nothing!

You know nothing!

You have this job because of me.

Don't you?

Alright?

Because I shouldn't really

sit here and have to watch you

Try to f*** some girl

While Im standing

right here in the room!

If you're gonna do it, do it in private!

You're just turning into

a disgusting old man.

I am a musician, I... I had

ideas, I had dreams

That I could ah...

do something creatively, but...

I don't know... they got squashed.

Thanks for keeping me waiting

here for 2 hours, by the way.

I couldn't get a cab and I

had to come all the way from queens.

Ok! But I mean... 2 hours! Really?

So what are you doing in new York?

I came for you.

You came for me?

I think your about 10 months

too late for that.

Yeah, so I see.

Why didn't tell me you were getting married?

Well, I told you I met someone

and it was getting serious.

I told you that.

Yeah, but that's a lot different

than saying "I do".

When you left L.A. I didn't think

the next time I saw you, you'd be married.

You know, I should get out of here.

What is this? Do you still hate me?

Is that what this is about?

No, I don't hate you,

But I don't want to have

these conversations, Linda.

Well, he took the job after

I said I wouldn't marry him.

I guess um...

I didn't think I was ready.

But um... I think maybe

now that was a mistake.

You broke my heart once already.

Why don't you just...

get on with your life?

Because Im still in love with you.

No, no.

I do not want to hear that.

Why not? It's true.

Because Im f***in'

married now, okay?

That's not my fault, alright?

Just because you

couldn't marry me,

Doesn't mean you have to run

out and marry somebody else.

I didn't know you were

a guy on a timeline.

No! No! Is not it,

that's not what happened!

That's not what happened.

Let me just want to ask something.
