Dr. Dominguez.

Hi.

How's your husband doing, today?

the usual.

Ms. Page,

I mean to speak out of turn, but

I get a distinct feeling that

you are a underappreciated woman

you've done that before?

man, your husband's

age and disposition

especially with this type of injury,

it'd be quite burdensome.

It would be perfectly understandable

if you were to leave him here with us.

and you could resume your own life and

(let this enjoy you???) run it's course.

rest assured,

he's in good hands, Irma.

can I have my cookies, please?

I don't git it.

I come back here every day

day and day out,

He barely even notices.

he's more preoccupied,

telling tall tales to my staff

I can't believe

there isn't some place, you'd rather be

My husband is a complicated man.

Buenos das, (tour milon ???)

told you, you wouldn't

have this place to yourself for long.

is that who I think it is?

I wondering how long

it would take you to notice.

I couldn't believe it,

when they brought him in

but, I know where exactly to put him

Ned Pritchard. well (I'd be .... | I beat ???)

What's a matter with him?

he's dying, Rex.

I'm sure you will.

no one can deny your

talent after hearing that monologue.

Are you making fun of me?

Rex, we need to talk.

It is important.

Rex!

What? for god sakes,

what is it? woman.

hi, Grandpa

- oh, can I have little peace?

- Clementine owes you an apology.

What for?

What did you do?

Denise, I keep asking you,

keep an eye on her.

I'm sorry, grandpa.

Rex, it's not the end of the world.

Give me that.

- permission to mount?

- denied.

- denied. grow up.

- enough!

If anyone owes anyone here an apology

it's you, Rex!

for missing her game

and all her plays.

I'm missing her whole damn life.

What do you know about my life? huh?

maybe it's okay for you

to go bed at night, knowing

that you're not gonna

amount to anything, but not me

when this life that

you've been waiting for gonna start, dad?

this little girl's imagination is a gift

and I refuse to let you kill it

just because you've lost yours.

it's one thing to you to be the other guy

but it's another to make it bitter

and to take it out on her

What? So you can kick soccer ball

you know how many girls

can kick soccer ball? big deal

What's makes you so special?

you wanna act.

so did I!

you know What's came off that? nothing.

I am a flop

I'm a complete what nobody wated to be.

- No, you're not. you're the man who shook hand of ...

- I am a nobody

and that's what you gonna amount to

if you don't shape up

- Stop it!

- nothing

I dealt with the fact,

that your family nerver even came to close

to giving you things

that's you wanted

but you better not miss another one of her games.

do you hear me, dad?

that's what you think?

that you amounted to nothing?

we have a marriage of 47 years and

you think it's nothing?

why, cus you don't become a

movie star?

Come on, we're leaving.

I'm leaving you here, Rex.

did you hear me?

Do what you gotta do, woman.

- Irma?

- hey, buddy.

- Who is this?

- what?

I am.

guess, What?

You got the part!

I've got the part, one line.

it's a cockamamie scheme, Burt!

Hey, what they always say?

No, just small agents

and rotten pictures!
