Take Shelter
No, no, no. Don't feed the dog, darling.
Thanks, babe.
- You slept late.
- Yeah, I need to go.
What you got going today?
I've got to finish up some curtains
for Saturday,
and Nat and Cam are coming over.
- With the kids?
- Yeah.
Cammie said she just needed
to get out of the house.
Tell Nat to take it easy on her.
Cam can hold her own.
We need to send in the deposit
for the beach condo.
I love you.
- Just write the check, babe, okay?
- Okay. Bye.
No more food.
You, eat.
Yeah, let's keep going with that bit.
It'll go another 10 feet.
We won't get the gravel pack down today.
Why not?
Clouds.
We're gonna have to call it.
Happy hour starts at 5:00, Dewart.
Not if it's raining.
- Ready?
- Yeah.
They were just drinking and laughing
And, oh, my God,
it was like I was being in a museum
and I saw the progress from apes to men.
I saw it. I saw the future.
Dewart, that was him,
that was going to be him in 20 years.
Let me tell you, you laugh.
You laugh. But this little one in your arms is
gonna be shuffling in a bar just like them.
- Yep.
- No.
Don't listen to her.
- Hannah!
- What?
- You guys okay?
- Yeah.
No. Don't touch.
You understand?
Okay. Come here.
Go play.
Hey, DJ. Bring the girls inside.
What?
- It's not my fault. I told you.
- Yeah, all right.
All right, I'm calling it. Shut it down.
- Bye, guys. Thank you for coming.
- I'll call you about the Lions Club supper.
- Okay. Love you.
- Bye, Sam.
BYE, Cam!
Can you sign
S-T-O-R-M?
Storm.
I gotta get home.
Nat and me been looking into a threesome.
We've been chatting with this girl online
from Canton.
Yeah. Big old girl.
What's big?
She's about 250, 275.
She can't be no taller than five foot.
Sh*t, man.
I don't see me and Sam
getting into something like that.
No. I don't guess you would.
You got a good life, Curtis.
I'm serious.
I think that's the best compliment
you can give a man,
take a look at his life
and say, "That's good.
"That guy's doing something right."
Well, it ain't always so easy.
Hell, I know that.
Sh*t. I gotta go.
Good night.
Hey, baby.
She do all right today?
She was fine.
She's still not playing
with the others, though.
She can't connect.
Honey, you gotta clean up that trash pile
in the back.
She fished out a
board that had nails on it.
I'll get to it this weekend.
I still take off my boots,
so I won't wake her up.
I still whisper.
Curtis?
- What?
- Did you hear me?
You got to be home, showered,
ready to walk out the door by 6:00 tonight.
What's wrong?
Nothing. I just want her to eat her breakfast
and stop playing with the damn dog.
She's fine down there.
She had toast already.
- All right.
- What?
Hannah. Come here. Hannah.
- Curtis?
- What?
I'm late.
- You didn't eat anything.
- It's okay.
I didn't say you had control
over the weather, Russell.
What I did say was that the top shelf
has got to be cleared by the 15th.
That's non-negotiable.
Curtis?
Curtis? Where we at on that East 82nd site?
Yesterday slowed us down.
We couldn't get the second pilot hole drilled.
It rained for two hours yesterday.
Two hours,
and our entire schedule went in the toilet?
We lose the permit
if you're not out of there, end of day.
- Yes, sir.
- End of day, Curtis.
that the father-son pancake cook-off...
Hey, I gotta make a stop
before we head out there.
- Think we got time?
- Yeah, there's time.
Sh*t.
Son of a b*tch.
- We stripped that bit.
- Yeah.
Well, bring it up. We gotta reset it.
Curtis!
- You ever see birds fly like that?
- What?
Damn it.
Damn it.
Come on, we gotta go.
Jesus.
Honey, I can really use a shower.
Hi.
So if you continue with
the basic vocabulary,
this will allow you to communicate
with your children better.
Between the ages of four and seven,
the focus is more on the sign.
And then later,
we'll begin adding the alphabet
as more of a support system.
Now, in ASL, the male sign is
signed at the forehead area.
For example, "father,"
is signed up here like this.
Father. Very good.
- You're not sorry.
- I am sorry.
Well, you stink. You smell really bad.
Do I smell good?
See? Maybe I should marry her instead.
Stop.
Man.
You okay?
Sh*t!
You okay?
You're okay.
It's okay.
No!
Hannah!
Hannah!
Hannah!
Here, honey. Put on your shoes.
- Good, you're up.
- Yeah.
Honey, you're soaked.
I've felt better.
I guess we can stay home if we need to.
Where you going?
It's Saturday.
I was going to take Hannah to my booth.
Yeah.
You look really sick, honey.
I'm all right.
It's just a cold or something.
Let me get you some Advil.
Just go. I'll be fine.
You sure?
Better already.
Okay. I got my phone if you need anything.
Don't forget, Sunday
lunch is here tomorrow.
If you're sick, we should cancel.
I'll be all right.
Okay, we'll talk later.
Come on. Let's go.
- You sure?
- Honey, please.
How much you asking for this pillow?
This pillow is $15.
That's more than I want to spend.
This is all hand stitched.
That's why I charge that.
I'll give you $7 for it.
I can't go that low.
Well, that's my offer.
How about 10?
I'll give you $8, but it's in change.
That's fine.
Lucky for you she likes to count change.
Red.
Come on.
Get in. Good boy.
I'm sorry about this, buddy.
We just gotta work it like this
for a while, okay?
While rescue workers made several
attempts to reach the family,
- Walter Jacobs' wife and brother-in-law died.
- That's what I don't understand.
If he didn't do anything,
why did you put him out back?
What?
Did you hear me?
I said if he didn't do anything,
why did you have to put him outside?
I just wanted him to be
outside for a while.
He's your dog.
He's always been an inside dog.
He's my dog, that's why he's outside.
Look,
right now with Hannah and everything,
I just think it'd be better.
- Hold on.
The gas cloud spread across
their six-acre property.
The only way off their land
which were blocked by wreckage.
and some towels to breathe through,
but that just seemed
to make it worse.
While rescue workers made several
attempts to reach the family,
Walter Jacobs' wife and
brother-in-law died in the home.
Jacobs survived despite enduring 11
hours of exposure to the gas cloud...
You hearing this?
It's awful.
Eleven hours.
No way out.
Hannah.
Hey!
Hey!
Hey! Hey!
- Babe?
- Yeah?
You got the number for Dr. Shannan?
You're still not feeling good?
Yeah, we got the number?
Yeah, baby, but he'll be closed today.
Right. Yeah, I'll call tomorrow.
Honey, if you're not feeling good,
- we got to take you...
- No. Stop!
Okay.
Do you want me to cancel lunch today?
Sh*t.
- What is that?
- I'm sorry.
I'm sorry. I just...
I got a sore throat.
