The Sleepwalker

- Hey, you.

- Hey.

Yeah.

Whenever you want.

Thanks.

Hey, who is this?

Oh, it's J&F Andrew.

Oh, sorry.

Yeah.

No, I know.

You want me to deliver that?

No, I'll come pick it up

on Thursday, man.

Don't worry about it.

Can you help me?

Wait, say that again?

It won't work.

Uh-huh.

Well...I told him that.

Yeah, all right.

Perfect.

I'll see you then.

Thanks.

Got it?

I'll fix that later.

Yeah.

- Hey.

- Hey.

Are you almost finished?

Yeah.

Have you seen

my router anywhere?

Your router?

Yeah.

I think there's one in the garage.

In the garage?

In the garage.

All right.

Come on, Tiny.

It's gonna be great

when it's done.

Yeah.

Yeah?

I like having you here

with me, though.

I like being here.

You mind if I set up

a workspace in the garage?

No, of course not.

It's what it's for.

Saw most of your dad's

stuff's in there.

I didn't want to start

throwing it all out.

Just get rid of it.

I just..I haven't gotten around to it.

All right.

Happy birthday.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

It's beautiful.

It's perfect.

That's good.

Is that good?

- Yeah.

- Yeah?

Yeah.

What's wrong?

Nothing, I just lost it.

Do you want me

to go down on you?

Yeah.

Hello.

Kaia, hey.

Hi, it's me.

Can you hear me?

Yeah, I can hear you.

What's wrong, Chris?

Sorry, I know it's late,

but I was wondering

if you could pick me up.

Pick you up where?

Train station.

Can you turn the heat on?

Yeah.

I hope I didn't wake you.

Sorry for calling so late.

It's all right.

I was up.

It was my birthday.

Gah.

Yes, f***.

Happy birthday.

Guess what.

You're gonna be an aunt.

What?

I'm pregnant.

What?

Nothing.

Jesus, Chris.

Be quiet.

My boyfriend is sleeping.

You have a boyfriend?

That's crazy.

Yeah.

Kaia?

I'm sorry.

I didn't want to wake you.

It's all right.

This is my sister, Christine.

Hi.

Hi, I'm Andrew.

Nice to meet you.

I'm very sorry for waking you.

Kaia, I'm really cold.

I'm gonna take a shower.

Okay, go ahead.

What's going on?

Is she okay?

I don't know.

I just picked her up

at the train station.

You go back to sleep.

I'll talk to her for a second.

All right.

Hey, Kai.

What?

I need to call my fiance.

You're engaged too?

Yeah.

Actually I need to call him

and tell him where I am.

And you're gonna love him.

What's going on, Chris?

His name is Ira.

He'll make a great dad.

Are you taking anything now?

No, but just because

it's bad for the baby.

Okay.

I don't know if you want

to come pick her up,

but if I don't hear from you

by tomorrow morning,

I'll bring her back to Boston.

My number is 860-581-9826.

860-581-9826.

Thanks.

F***, Chris.

I couldn't find you.

You're sleeping in dad's room?

You went in there?

Yeah, well, nice touches, Kaia.

It looks sweet in there.

Don't worry.

I didn't wake him.

It doesn't work.

What do you need?

I don't know how we used

to sleep alone up here.

I'm not used to it.

Are you afraid?

Kind of, yeah.

Listen.

I'm really sorry.

Yeah, well, you're not forgiven.

I know that.

I know that, but right now,

I need you to be nice with me.

So he's nice, huh?

Ira?

Yeah.

He's great.

I love him.

He's a little different from me.

He works at the UN.

With what?

Something to do with human rights

in Grozny or something.

Sounds kind of honourable.

I don't really understand it.

Me neither.

Look, I'm here now.

I'm gonna make it

right between us.

Come here.

You can be such a child, Chris.

'Cause you're a good mommy.

Me too.

- Hey.

- Ah.

I'm making pancakes.

Hope that's okay.

It's the only thing

I know how to make.

Yeah, no, nice.

Where's Kaia?

She's sleeping in my room.

We had a late night,

so I figured she should sleep in.

All right, well,

I'll go wake her up then.

Sure.

Tell her breakfast is ready.

All right.

You, uh-you have

a different accent.

Yeah.

Different moms.

My dad and I lived everywhere.

You didn't know that?

Oh, no, I knew that.

I just...

I forgot.

Still asleep.

She doesn't really talk

about me much, huh?

Uh, no, it's not that.

I just forgot.

All right.

Morning.

Why are you sleeping in here?

Sorry.

We were talking,

and I fell asleep.

Mm. Okay.

Um, what's she doing here?

Apparently she's pregnant

and engaged to some guy.

- Really?

- Mm-hmm.

So, what, she just showed up?

Come here.

It's so weird that

that's your sister.

How far along is she?

14 weeks.

She's not taking care of herself.

She's too skinny.

Well, she's downstairs

making pancakes now.

It's the only thing

she knows how to make.

Mm.

- Hi.

- Hi.

- Kaia?

- Yeah.

- Ira, right?

- Yeah.

Thanks a lot for calling me.

Is Chris here?

Yeah, she is.

- Hi.

- Oh, hey.

- Andrew.

- Ira.

Nice to meet you.

Nice car.

Yeah, thanks.

Yeah, come in.

She's in the kitchen.

I'm really sorry about her

just showing up here like this.

She does this sometimes.

Yeah, I'm used to it.

It's not the best behaviour.

I guess we'll have

to start tying her up.

The kitchen is...

To the right.

You guys are fixing up

the house, huh?

Did your dad draw it?

It's from the 1920's.

It's by my dad's

favourite architect.

Okay.

It'll probably be worth

a lot when it's all done.

Well, no, we don't plan on selling it.

- Hi.

- Hey.

You're here.

Yeah.

Long drive up here, babe.

I had to tell Kaia about the baby.

Sorry.

Congratulations.

Thanks.

It's good news, huh?

Mm-hmm.

Couldn't you wait to come up here

in the morning, though?

You scared the sh*t out of me.

Oh, I'm sorry.

I'm terrible.

Kaia called you, right?

Yeah.

That's not the point.

You can't keep doing

this to me, honey.

Or we have to tie you up.

All right.

Well, thank you, guys,

for calling me.

It was nice to finally meet you.

You want to get your stuff?

Ready to go?

Hold on.

I made breakfast.

Yes, you did.

I'll have two, if you eat one.

- Oh.

- Come on.

She's just like you.

She can't eat in the morning.

Then I want apple jam.

Jam?

On pancakes?

Yeah, it's a Scandinavian thing.

It's awful.

It was Kaia's birthday yesterday.

I was thinking that

we could stay.

Oh-

I'm never around

for your birthday.

I thought it might be nice if

we all had dinner together.

Well, we should probably

head back, babe.

Yeah, I'm not really up

for another celebration.

See?

There you go.

Why don't we plan on

coming up here another time?

Come on, Kaia.

It'll be nice.

Well, aren't we keeping Ira

from anything?

Well, it's the weekend.

Yeah, but I..

I brought you your dress.

We have tickets for

the SPS benefit tonight.

Well, give them to your

mother or someone.

You hate those things.

Well, that sounds more fun
