Regarding Henry Page #4

---

Henry, where are you?

Okay.

Thanks.

Hi.

Hi.

Hungry?

Yeah.

That's what I like to hear.

Mustard and kraut?

Kraut?

Where is he?

Hello. It's Henry.

Check it out, check it out.

Oh, my.

He was wearing a blue shirt

and khaki pants.

Listen, you're the fifth person

to ask me these questions.

I just want to find my husband.

I'll wait here.

I won't be long, sweetheart.

I've just got to go look.

Henry!

Where were you?

I bought a dog.

Mom, look!

A puppy, look!

Wow.

You really missed me, huh?

Can we call him Buddy?

Jennifer has a dog named Buddy,

but he's really ugly.

Buddy.

Yeah, is that okay?

How you doing?

Sit, boy.

Yeah, Buddy's fine.

Hi, Buddy.

Just let me know

before you go out next time.

Okay?

Okay.

Sit, boy.

Excuse me.

Shh. Oh, sweetie.

Buddy...

Why is she so mad?

If you're going to be late,

you have to call her.

Oh.

Okay.

Some of them

you can borrow and take home,

but some of them

you have to read here.

And you can't talk loud.

Right.

Dad, stop it.

Dad!

I'm serious.

I know.

V- Very.

Dad.

Read your book.

I can't.

I'm sorry.

A...

Ah.

Ah...

Ah... roo...

Ahroo,

ahrooee.

The "E" is silent.

- See, it's just "are. "

- Are. "

Now Miss Petesky

always made us repeat it

over and over,

but I won't make you do that.

This next one's easy.

Wiii...

U...

U... yoo...

Yo...

yo...

Ooh.

Yo, youu.

Yo... ooh...

- Yo. "You. You. "

- You. "

"Are you. "

"You, you. "

See, the letters make up words,

and the words make up sentences.

"Are you. "

This is a little one.

Mmm... mmm...

Mmm, wha, wha.

Mmm, why?

Mmmiii... my?

"My. My"?

"My"!

"Are you my. "

"Are you my. "

Okay, one more.

This is the toughy.

Mmm, mmm,

moooat, moat...

"Th", remember, thhhhh.

Moooo, moooth,

moooth, moooth.

Mooth.

Er. Er...

Mooth er.

Ma, ma, ma, moth.

Moth er.

Mo, moth er.

"Mother"!

"Mother"?

- "Mother. "

- Ha!

You did it!

"Are you my mother?"

I... I can read!

Sarah, Rosella.

- I can read.

- He can read!

- I can read!

- He can read!

Ayy, ayy, jax.

A- Ajax!

This is Ajax.

Yes, it is!

I can read!

I can read!

What happened?

- She taught me how to read!

- I taught Dad to read!

This is Ajax!

That's great!

I can read!

That's right!

The door was unlocked.

I knocked, but...

I can read.

Hi, Henry.

Christ, I can't tell you

what a shock it was.

I mean, one minute

you're at the restaurant,

the next, you know...

And the newspapers.

Jesus, they never stopped

calling the office.

Charlie was out of his mind.

Linda... everybody.

Henry...

If they'd found

that son of a b*tch,

I'd have brought

the death penalty

back to New York

single-handedly.

Anyway.

So, uh, here we are, huh?

And, uh...

we got the big party coming up.

I'm looking forward to then.

And... I know Charlie is, too.

W- Were we

really good friends...

Bruce?

Yeah.

Oh, of course.

You know, we're... partners.

You know.

Mm.

Aren't you going to open it?

Oh, yeah.

It...

it's a...

You know, it's a frame, it's...

it's just a little frame, but...

Okay. Thanks.

"What am I going to do

with him?" Henry's Dad said.

"I've grounded him,

but I don't know

what to do with that boy. "

I said, "Are you kidding?

"Grounded him?

I want that boy in the firm. "

And as it turned out,

it was the best decision

I ever made.

For years,

the halls of our firm

have resounded with the call

of Henry Turner throwing

on his jacket,

striding through the office,

crying, "Come on, guys, let's

go out and break some balls. "

I offer a toast to the years

to come

when once more we will hear

that familiar cry.

To Henry!

To Henry!

- Henry!

- To Henry!

S- Sarah... Sarah s-said

I should say something.

Uh... I don't remember

a- any of you.

I don't really remember

very much of-of anything, and...

um, it's all mixed up, um...

Like I remember...

um...

that Rachel likes strawberries

on her pancakes,

but I don't...

remember any

of her birthday parties,

although I saw pictures,

and I was there.

Um...

I... I rem... remember

a woman in a blue dress

standing on grass,

and, um...

I- I think that's my mother, but

I don't know if it's my mother.

Um...

So-so if you'll...

if you just be patient,

I'll... I'm trying.

And here's another one of me

as a baby.

Wh-Who's this?

You.

Your father used to make you

mow the lawn

and take out the garbage

and walk the dog

and wash the car,

and then you learn

to appreciate the work ethic.

What's that?

I don't know.

Bike.

Hi.

Hi, Henry.

Hi.

- Good to see you.

- Hello.

Hey, good to see you.

Oh, thank you. Hi.

- Hi, Darcy.

- Hi.

- Hello.

- Hi.

Hi.

It's great to see you back.

Oh, thank you.

You look great, Henry.

Hi.

- Hello.

- Hi.

- Welcome back.

- Welcome back, Mr. Turner.

Oh, thank you.

Henry.

Hello.

I'm Rudy.

Ruuuu-dy.

I just want to say hello

and welcome back.

What's wrong with him?

- He's an a**hole.

- Oh.

Henry.

Hi.

It's Linda.

Hi, Linda.

It's good to see you

back at the office.

It's good to see you, too.

Linda.

Linda...

This is your office.

And this is...

Jessica.

Jessica.

She was your secretary.

And she was working for Steven

while you were away.

Nice flower.

Thank you.

Wow.

I'm at the end of the hall

if you need anything.

Okay, well, I'll be in here

if you need anything.

Let's grab lunch this week.

Okay.

He's back.

Grab lunch?

Grab lunch...

Grab lunch.

Matthews v.

East Shore Hospital.

Mmm.

Say when.

When you've had enough,

Mr. Turner, you say "when. "

Oh, when.

You want anything

from the kitchen?

Um, thanks, I'm okay.

A little milk and cookies?

Mallomars?

Uh, no, I just,

I have to finish reading this.

You don't remember mallomars,

do you?

No.

Marshmallows in chocolate?

I once watched you eat

a whole package

in three and a half minutes.

Okay, I'll have some mallomars.

Buddy... sit.

So we push for October.

We can go to trial then.

What about Lawson?

He's on the Barnes case.

How long can that take?

Lawson? Try a decade.

What did he say?

Nothing that helped us.

I'm telling you,

we've got to make a choice.

What, do we postpone?

We can't push this off forever.

Listen, either we get it

or we don't.

There's a phone call

to be made here.

If we lose Rodgers, half a dozen

other clients will follow.

We can't lose his case

because of Barnes.

So we go with September

with another witness.

Exactly. We'll pull

a Henry Turner.

Hey, it's really decent of you

to let Henry come back

like this.

Well, after all...

we're human, aren't we?

Is-is there more on-on

Matthews v. East Shore

Hospital?

That would be in the file room.

I'll get the file.

Okay, I'll wait here.

Uh...

you can wait in your office.

I'll bring it to you.

Okay, I'll wait in my office.

He's going to Paul Weiss?

They offered him 650

and a partnership.

What would you do?

Well, I'd have

to see the office.

Oh, yeah.

Welcome back, Mr. Turner.

Oh, hi.

Listen, I've got this question.

What is it?
