And then he, like,

gets some eyeballs.

Like, he gets fake eyeballs...

like, emerald ones

and gold ones,

and when he puts the gold one in

he transports to this place

where the person...

like, he sends him on a mission.

That's really kind of

where I'm at.

On the mission?

Yeah.

I know what I want!

Yeah? What?

a bean bag chair.

A bean bag chair?

Uh huh.

Sitting!

something to sit in?

They're cool!

Alright.

Any toys?

trampoline.

Trampoline?

In the back yard?

That ain't happening.

I want a tree house?

What? What about toys?

Clothes, books, toys?

I want some clothes!

I do not want toys.

too old for toys now?

Sorta.

Alright, guys.

Alright, love you!

Watch out!

Watch out!

You can call your garbage!

I heard it!

Dave, time out.

One sec.

- Kelly wanted me to ask

if you were coming over

- Absolutely.

Are you kidding me?

I got a feeling.

I got a good feeling.

About...?

About you!

Quail.

This year's gonna

be the year for you.

You're gonna get one.

Oh my God!

That's nasty!

Oh my God!

That's impressive.

Impressively nasty.

- That's years of

hard work right there.

Yeah, hard work.

Like lookin' in a mirror!

So?

How bad?

Am I teaching these

kids anything?

Yes.

Hey, do you have a second?

Uhh, yeah.

Ummm...

I'm sorry...

Mandy.

Mandy. Mandy...

Come on in.

Open or closed? -

Closed.

- Umm, I just wanted

to talk to you about...

my grades?

Grades haven't come out yet.

Uhhh, the paper

that you assigned...

Uhh, I didn't do it.

Gotcha.

So...

What happens now?

- Your grade becomes

an incomplete,

and if it's not on my desk,

or in my box,

by the beginning

of next semester

it becomes an F.

Is there...

any other...

No.

Okay.

Kay.

Everything okay?

Yeah.

Do you have a minute to talk?

Can we do it later?

Yeah.

Okay.

Hello?

Anyone home?

Hey!

Oh, you're getting

so big and heavy!

You're getting heavy.

You're getting heavy.

Hey, hey!

Yummy, yummy! What do we got?

Peanut butter!

- Grapes? He said he

wants some grapes.

Yummy!

Here you go, buddy!

This looks...

incredibly sparse.

Where's the chips?

No?

Crunchy.

Mmmmm!

Do you have to go back?

Yeah.

- Don't be late, because

don't forget we have

your Mom's tonight.

Tonight?

Yeah! The tree trimming!

- I've got final grades

due tomorrow...

9, 10, maybe?

That's alright.

I mean, we'll miss you.

It's nicer when you're there...

but, umm...

me and the kids and

a bunch of sugar,

and your Mom and Dad...

I got it.

- Sounds fun.

- I got it.

I'll make it up to you.

- I know.

Thank you!

- Thanks for the

delicious lunch, mommy!

I feel so much lighter now!

Hey!

Hi Daddy!

- Are you having

fun at Grammy's?

- I miss you. Are you gonna

be home for bedtime?

I'm gonna try!

I'm gonna do my best.

Put your sister on.

Hi Daddy!

Hey, are you guys having fun?

Yeah!

Put it on the tree.

Yeah?

I'm sorry, I wish

I could be there.

Does your Mom

need to talk to me?

Sure. Here she is.

Hi.

Hey!

So...

I guess we're just

all missing you,

but we'll see you later.

Okay.

Okay.

Alright, I love you!

Bye.

When you're 46 years old

a lot of things start happening.

You get hair where

you don't want it...

And not where you do.

Smells come off you

in strange places.

Cheers.

That was amazing.

- It's not too late

for you to come.

To L.A?

I can't.

I can't!

You were fantastic tonight.

Want me to walk you to your car?

Yeah.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

What happened?

Where's my family?

Where are my kids?

I want to see my kids!

Yeah.

There you go.

- What time is the doctor going

to see my daughter-in-law

in the morning?

- I'm sorry, what was

your daughter's name?

Kelly Conrad, in 27... 127...

What happened?

Looks like a car accident.

Was anybody else hurt?

- I can't be sure,

but we'll find out.

Dave?

David?

David!

Come out here!

That drunk driver

is in that room.

Right there.

He's in that room

right next to your wife!

Who's in charge here?

I want him moved, right now.

Get him out of here.

Are you in charge here?

Who is in charge here?!

Who is in charge?!

I want someone in charge!

Right now!

Right now!

I need your help over here.

Get away from me.

Sir, I need that

chart back right now.

What... what's going on here?

Get him out of here!

Get him out!

Okay, listen! Listen!

Get him out!

Right now!

Oh my God!

Jesus Christ!

So, why are you here?

Why are you here?

Umm...

My wife had a car accident.

I'm sorry to hear that.

My grandma had a

heart attack last night.

I think she'll be okay.

She's strong. Real strong.

Yeah, she'll be okay.

I need a drink.

It's the middle of the night.

I always wanted to have another.

Little brother or

sister for you.

We tried and tried.

It's not as easy as

they'd like you to believe.

When I was a teenager, I

thought if a boy so much as

looked at me I

would get pregnant.

It's too dangerous

to just have one.

Mom.

I used to lie awake at night

listening for you to come home,

thinking "What if... "

The kids?

Anyone need anything?

Dave?

You sure?

Something to eat?

- I don't need a f***ing

sandwich, Dad.

He's just trying to help.

- I don't need a

f***ing sandwich!

Sorry.

I'm exhausted.

I think I'm gonna go out.

Oh my God!

Listen, if there's

anything I can do.

No, really. Anything...

It's f***ed up.

Look, if...

If I knew what to say...

I'd say it.

I can't.

Stop!

Stop!

Stop!

Come here.

I can't!

F*** me!

I can't!

I should've died.

I should've...

I always wear my seatbelt.

Always.

And the one...

and the one time I don't...

I should've f***ing

burned up in that car.

Thank God you didn't.

Oh yeah.

Thank God.

I need, uh...

some 12 gauge bird shot please.

Nine dollars.

Anything else?

How about a Stetson hat to

go with those pretty blue eyes.

Just the uhh...

Shells.

Okay.

There you go.

You okay?

Yeah.

Where'd you get this?

- When we went to the

lake at the Ozarks.

Oh.

- That was before

I married Kelly.

That's right.

How's she doing?
