The Intervention Page #2

I'd just like to

have one drink.

Everybody's grumpy after

travel. It's not a big deal.

No. Jack, you need to take

off your blinders, okay?

Just look at the situation.

Yeah, we're gonna do this.

No, I'm not saying that i don't

think we should do it at all.

I'm just saying that

with the leg development,

that maybe this is

not the best weekend.

When else are we all

gonna be together?

I mean, we have to do it.

Look, you have to admit,

even after five minutes,

you can feel it.

The oppression,

just the weight,

the burden of

their marital prison.

I mean, it's terrifying.

Yeah, I know, but it's like...

You know the kind

of person who likes

having the mirror

held up to them

so they can better

see the ways in which

they need to improve?

Mmm-hmm.

Ruby is the opposite

of that person.

Mmm-hmm.

I don't know.

I feel very scared.

We can't think

about ourselves right now.

We have to save them.

You can't tell Jessie I'm

smoking. We quit together.

Like I give a sh*t.

Today is mine and Peter's anniversary, so...

Congratulations.

How many years?

A lot. A lot of years.

Should we do something

tonight to celebrate?

Um, well, no,

'cause that would mean

we would have to

acknowledge it,

and we haven't

acknowledged sh*t, so...

If we acknowledge

the anniversary,

we haven't had sex

in six months, and...

Right.

What's up with this?

Oh, yeah,

i do this again.

Don't give me that look.

It's fine.

It's totally under control. Okay.

Not...

Fine.

When did you

start smoking again?

I didn't.

And they really hit it off. She went

like this, "we really hit it off."

You know what I mean?

Not my type.

Yeah, but she's

Jessie's type.

Ah, come on, please.

What is she, like, 12?

Well, she's early-20s.

That's Jessie's type.

I want to...

I want to... kiss me.

Did you see it coming?

Is that connected back...

So, Pete, um,

do you still lease?

Huh?

Your car?

Yeah.

Cute. Oh, my... Go like this. What about 'em?

What?

It's like a little puppy.

You still have

that, um, BMW?

Let me do it to you.

I wanna put your entire nose

in my mouth.

I wanna suck everything

out of your nose.

Hey! Hello.

What?

You guys mind taking this

inside or into traffic?

Okay. I'm gonna go shower. No.

You hang out with your friends. No!

- Sorry, Lola, it's not you.

- Don't be sorry.

I just haven't seen this guy

in a long time.

I'll be back.

Give me that.

No.

I'll be back.

I'll miss you.

I'll miss you more.

That is just puppy love. What,

do you forget what it looks like?

She doesn't make you feel,

like, super-old?

Her?

Like, so old.

She doesn't...

No. Stop. First of all, "so old"? No.

We talk about...

Was Titanic out yet?

No. But I've explained it to

her, and she knows how it ends.

- Made a cheese plate.

- Ooh!

- That looks yummy.

- So...

So there's...

Where is it? There's Sadie.

Oh!

Oh, my gosh!

In her little dress.

Annie, look at this one.

Oh, cute.

Oh, my god.

Will you send that one to me?

How could you

ever have a bad day

when you get to

look at that face!

You gotta send me

that one.

What is that,

like, a little lion costume?

What're you guys

all looking at?

Looking at Pete

and Ruby's kids.

- Oh, can I see?

- Yeah, look.

He's a cute kid. I can't

believe how big they are.

So cute. Well, you see them so infrequently.

You know, when you're

around them all the time,

they don't really

change that much.

How old is that?

Yeah, she has...

Well, Leo is eight,

Sadie's six,

and Stanley's two and a half.

He's almost three.

In six months.

In like half a year.

October's in three months.

Sadie is in October. Stanley

is in January, so, six months.

He's gonna be three.

Oh.

How 'bout you guys? When

are you gonna have babies?

I don't know.

Well, we have... We have to

get through the wedding first.

Right.

So, first things first.

But that's on our list.

Yeah. Of course.

But you gotta...

You know, like,

you don't wanna

wait too long, right,

because they say, like,

after you pass 35,

it's harder to get pregnant.

I've heard that. Yeah.

Ruby. Ruby.

The eggs aren't...

Trust me, take your time.

No, I'm just...

They're a handful.

Thank you.

Hmm.

So, Annie is drinking again.

Well, she just has a glass or

two, um, you know, some nights.

Um...

But it's nothing

like before.

Um...

Yeah, that's good.

Yeah.

Hey, uh, we haven't got your

"save the date" card yet.

We have to...

We gotta save that date.

Yeah. It's just...

We haven't exactly

decided on what

it's gonna look like.

Mmm-hmm.

So we... There's a little

bit more decision-making.

Yeah, but the wedding

is in three months,

so shouldn't you

get those in the mail?

I was gonna ask you,

what happened?

It was a softball game and I

was walking down the stairs,

and I had

Stanley and a bunch of,

you know,

snacks and water bottles,

and I just missed a step

and I end up cracking my knee

on the stairs and...

Oh, my god.

Yeah, so, six to eight

weeks on crutches.

Ruby, that's horrible.

Yeah. It's my idea

of a good time.

It's a long time.

Hi.

Hi.

Hey.

I'm talking about, we went to

Paris and Rome and it was amazing.

But after like a month,

i thought to myself,

"you know what country

i really wanna see?

We've lived in America our entire

lives, right, the entire time?

Have you once driven cross-country? No.

That's a crime.

It's f***ing amazing!

You're getting so upset.

I said, "let's get a car,"

and she said, "okay."

So, we got that truck.

And the best part is,

i get to choose where we go.

We can literally say, "okay, now

we wanna go north," and just...

We'll just f***in' go north.

Does it need to be...

You want some?

Here, have some.

Oh, yeah.

I'll show you how.

You gotta come home though,

at some point.

Nah, I can't be in L.A.

It looks like it's something... look. Yeah.

Cheers.

Cheers.

Am I right?

No!

...about

the serial killer.

Right.

I think that, like,

very few people set out

to intentionally do something

that they know is wrong.

You know, when you look at history... Great.

Oh, my... I'm not pro-Hitler.

Is that where this is going?

I'm just... I'm using

him to make a point.

I don't know if we need to... No, go on.

Go on, make your Hitler point.

Okay, uh...

Hitler was, um,

doing what he thought

was the right thing.

He truly believed it.

And he thought that

he was doing good.

So does that

mean that he is bad?

Yes.

Yes, it does.

Yeah, he's Hitler.

He's Hitler,

of course, yes, but what...

But what he did was bad,

but he didn't mean to be bad.

He was trying to...

He was probably the most

evil man in the world,

and you're trying to

form an argument...

Well, I'm sorry, i don't

understand being a Nazi sympathizer.

I'm not a Nazi sympathizer.

I am just trying to...

Stop!

Stop being so handsome

in schindler's list,

Ralph fiennes.

Because it makes knowing

who to root for too confusing.

You know, when you...

"Ralph" fiennes, she means.
