The Rebound Page #4

We're just playing "American Idol."

That was truly dreadful Aram

Finklestein, awful.

You kinda like a little pitchy in the beginning

but dawg, I mean you put it together in the end,

and man you rocked.

Well Randy liked it, but I still doint' think

I'm going to the next round.

I'm not gonna be able to make it home for dinner tonight.

Yeah, no problem.

I could feed the kids.

You may have to put them to bed too.

Can be a late one, huh

Yeah, a couple of / i

the Vikings player, / i

were charged of sexually assaulting a stripper

I have to come up with something fizzy for the board to leave this. / i

Well, Vikings

have been attacking people on ships for centuries now.

Aram, that's good but thank you. I'll see when I get home okay.

I'm sorry.

God, I can't imagine to be many more days like this.

No prob, there's dinner for you on the table there.

Oh thanks, you didn't have to do that.

Just whipped up on stuff that I learned on Top Chef

The kids helped,

and Frank's pretty good.

Delicious, wow, hmm...wait

I have these two tickets for the fight

on Saturday, I thought you might be able to use them.

Aren't the kids with their dad this weekend?

-- Yeah -- And you don't wanna use this?

My girlfriend's not free and I'm facing another date.

So take whoever you want.

--That's really nice, thanks. --You're welcome.

Hey, I was wondering if you are free this weekend.

Coz I've got these tickets to the big fight.

I hate it when the ref does that.

Why bother having a rest, just let them bareknuckle it.

I can't believe you were thinking of that coming.

Me neither.

I can never be like this with Frank

It was like I didn't even know if I was happy when I was with him

What makes

people do that? Just coast along.

And you know the thing that really sticks for me

is that I never got the chance to

tell him how I felt.

He has this strange ability,

to make me entirely lose my voice.

Like some superpower, it's crazy.

No Voice Man

Steal You Voice Man, Quiet Man

Dr. Silence. - That's a good one.

Hey, Aram, right?

Gile from Roscoe Mathis, I interviewed you.

Oh, yeah yeah. How are you?

Dude, you're the only person that's ever said no to us

most people would kill for that job.

Sorry about that.

Ringside at the fight,

doesn't look like you're doing too bad.

Let me know if you ever change your mind.

--Thanks. --Good to see you around.

What?

It's just an entry level thing.

At Roscoe Mathis? And you

let them go to be my nanny?

Idiotic.

I thought so too, for a minute.

I wasn't really thinking clearly there after Alice.

And suddenly I just had a very clear thought in my head.

What really matters are

the people in my life.

You and your family were, are some of those

people that make me feel good,

make my life good, every day.

That is the most wonderfully

and jaded naive thing I've ever heard..

It's rare to find

a guy who's such a romantic.

Bright light.

Close those eyes.

I'm not tired. --You're really gonna sleep this off with me.

I'm gonna put this here okay.

I really love your kids.

I know.

I had fun tonight.

Yeah...me too.

None of you to call me that word, okay.

It's not a weird word, though

It's just means a "female dog"..

I'm not gonna have semantics today, okay. --What are you doing here?

You know what it means, it's not okay to call me that or anyone else for that matter

You've been in the city for a few months

they're already totally corrupted.

-- Dad's play sucks.

-- Frankie, what happened?

-- Aram!?

-- Guys, careful...

C'mon you late night criminals

Hey, guess what? --You wanna give me a million dollars?

We saw a dead junk on the road.

Oh, even better.

We wanted to touch it but dad wouldn't let us.

You're running a home for delinquent boys.

Aram helps me with the kids, Frank.

The kids weren't here, so what's he doing here?

Can I just explain something to you?

You have no

rights in this house, okay.

I don't like the way this separation is going.

Oh Really?

Well, I'm loving the way it's going, this is exactly how I envisioned my life.

--Noticed how weird this thing was.

-- That's mine.

What I wanna say, it's gonna come out wrong.

I want you back. I want our life back.

Why are you doing this?

The truth is I couldn't handle the kids, I just wanted to see you.

You must missed me, at least a little.

I don't want you here.

Of course, I don't wanna be here.

If you're good, I'll come back and do the grunge.

You can even work if you wanted to.

Part time.

Imagine this..

There are so many things

I wanted to say to you.

We're not gonna need you anymore.

Unless you wanna grab a bite to eat and you can sit, are you on hourly?

I think Sandy had something that she wanted to say to you.

Didn't you?

I just wanted to tell you about some feelings I've been having

you know

regarding you and your treatment with me.

What she wanted to say was...

and, this is pretty much, word for word, if I remember properly

that you're a dirty little f***ing scumbag

and I might be paraphrasing here, but you should

take your diseased riddled whore and f*** her in hell for all eternity.

While the devil burns you ...

with hot jagged metal and suffocates you

with molten fury.

F***ing nutheads.

Don't come beg me to come back.

This was the last straw.

That was really good.

And by the way, I never loved you.

And I'm changing our son's name to Pablo

so I'm never have to be remembered of you.

And stuck at your little b*tch.

You are off tomorrow, come take me out.

Dude, back in the saddle!

Who's the unsuspecting lovely lady?

--Her name? --Yes

The thing that you will be calling out in bed.

if she's all upon you...

Sandy

It's your boss' name, isn't it?

Wait a minute, are you

gonna date your boss?

Oh that's hot.

Oh, wait no, she's like 60 though, I thought.

She's 40.

But she got like a hundred kids though.

Two

So, when's this all going down?

Actually, tonight.

Dude...

tonight's my showcase.

I sent you a postcard.

Right. It's just that she already hired another babysitter.

Work's been really busy so finding another time would be virtually impossible.

You'll understand.

Welcome one and all to the second

annual Holligan theater, group showcase workshop

Stella!

To be ..

or not be.

That is the question

Whether it is nobler

in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune

There he is.

I had him in view.

I was feeling over the edge into a dive.

He saw me when I moved in for the kill.

Is that how you remember it, Maverick?

-- Is this Top Gun?

-- Not pretty sure.

The rules of engagement

are not flexible, Maverick.
