I mean, cause

that's really funny.

Cause i heard,

that you fell down

on your little bicycle,

Got a boo-boo on your head,

and you died.

What is this a**hole talking

about?

It's a f***ing resurrection,

Captain!

A f***ing miracle

and it ain't even Easter!

Jerry, I got to

drink to that.

Oh, me too!

So, now you're into

f***ing the dead, huh?

Who I f***, and what

I f*** is my business.

Is he your way of making

you feel good about

yourself again, huh?

Has he forgiven you?

Have you guys

forgiven each other?

Nice mouth.

I think I'm gonna have

to shut this mouth.

Hey, that's a nice new

motorcycle you got there...

Did she buy it for you?

Son of--

- Take it outside!!

Come on, fuckhead!

Kick him in the nuts, Johnny!

Kick him in the nuts!

You know, Allison, you're

an easy mark for abuse!

Come on!

- Oh, I'm coming!

I am coming!

Start the bike!

Allison!

- Start it!

Start it!

- Did he ever find himself

after he made you the kid?

Huh?

Huh?!

Stop it!

Stop it!

Don't hurt him!!

Kick him in the nuts!

In the nuts!

Let go of me!

He needs my help!

He needs me to help him!!

Which one are you talking

to?!

Stop it!

[woman]

Someone get some help!

[indistinct chatter]

God!

- What a cheap shot, huh?

[party chatter]

It's the best thing

you've ever done.

It's truly remarkable, John.

It's gonna spin your career

around like a top!

I think I'm talking

the really big bucks, here!

Mark...

You're a scumbag.

It belongs to Ed Morley

and Greenscene.

They commissioned it...

It's a charitable

contribution...

A tax write-off.

[Oscar]

Right?!

Don't you see it?!

The whole problem with

the world today is...

We think we know

everything!

And therefore,

we can't learn sh*t!

And on any given issue,

any given time,

there's only one truth...

And it doesn't come

in shades and variations.

And ultimately it's the only

thing that matters.

Are those real?

Hey, hey!

- Are you crazy?!

This isn't your lease.

These freaks--

These freaks

in my place, man!

They're gonna

mess up the place!

Arnie, Arnie, Arnie!

The bulldozers are gonna

be here in a couple of days.

Any damage we do

is gonna save you money

on the back end!

Think of it

as good business, man!

You been drinking?

- Yeah!

I think you're right, though.

- All right, man.

I want you to--

introduce you to...

Luella and Susan.

This is Arnie.

He owns the place.

- I own the place.

You wanna--

You want a drink, man?

Yeah, scotch no ice.

Ice spoils the drink.

How you girls doing?

I own the place--

Friend of [indistinct]

down the street.

Do a lot of business

together.

I'm thinking about a lot of

exciting things for this area.

Gonna tear it down

and go about three high.

You guys enjoy condos?

You ever been down to...

John, the radio

tomorrow at 12...

Tune into the station.

I got a surprise for you.

Yeah?

What is it?

It's a secret.

It's your going away present.

All right.

Cool.

[party chatter,

rock music ]

[bird tweeting]

Go on now, girls.

[smacks cage]

Go on!

[tweeting]

[Paul on radio]

Today, I've got some good

news for everyone.

Instead of the usual stuff,

we're gonna talk about some

of the other interesting things

that're going on in our city.

More than 3.5 million people

didn't die today in LA.

They were not involved in

traffic accidents,

earthquakes,

plane crashes, fires or crime.

Now that's what I call

"news."

[horn blaring]

A Hollywood man...

What the hell

is going on here?!

Freddy?!

Freddy, what does he

think he's doing?!

...dedicated to helping

provide housing for the

homeless.

Jake is on the phone.

get him off!

- In Pasadena...

Paul!

- ...a 14-year-old put

together

a group of teenagers

to visit the elderly.

To learn from them.

To learn to respect them...

Paul, I swear to God!

A business exec in Century

City decided that by pooling

the various individual

talents of the poor...

You did it, you son of a b*tch!

You did it!

...manufacture profits and

well-being for its

participants.

A retired grandmother

decided to fund a group,

dedicated to instilling

a sense of accomplishment--

Listen, I want this stopped!

...even in the most

desperate of our citizens.

The balls, man.

The beautiful balls!

The phones are ringing

off the hook!

I've never seen

anything like this!

All right, all right, that's

it!

Just cut him off!

Pull the plug!

We're off the air!

What are you talking about?!

They love it!

They're all saying they

love what he's saying!

I'd like to end this first

edition

of "The Good News Report"

with an excerpt from a letter

that was written in 1852

by Chief Sealth,

in response to an inquiry

made by the US government

about buying tribal lands.

Chief Sealth said,

"The Earth does not

belong to man...

Man belongs to the Earth.

All thing are connected, like

the blood that unites us all.

Man did not weave

the web of life....

He is merely a strand in it.

What he does to the web,

he does to himself."

[knocking on door]

Uh, can I come in?

[door closes]

Something happened the

other night when you were--

When John dropped

Jennifer.

Something important.

Allison, I--

I'm sorry.

[voice breaking]

I'm so sorry.

What happened?

He loves you so much.

It opened my eyes.

His love for you

made me see--

Mother, what are

you talking about?

You can't keep living

on our terms,

because they're wrong.

Brandon?

There is a phase

of our lives...

that has to come to an end...

as of now.

Patricia, you can't change

the world in a single

conversation.

I need more happiness

in my life.

And so do you.

So does our daughter

and our granddaughter.

Now, we have

talked about this...

Yes...

We talked about it.

We're going to fix what's

wrong with this family...

Once and for all.

Your father couldn't

understand the

difference between...

running a corporation...

and allowing the love

of a family to--

He felt, he couldn't

show softness...

and vulnerability.

This thing about males...

is a carry-over from some...

distant tradition that

your father inherited

and foisted upon us.

And I let him.

Your husband was right.

We never worked our asses

off to make you feel great

about yourself.

And that was

a terrible mistake.

[metal creaking]

[glass breaking]

I told myself, "Someday.

Someday, I'm gonna do it!

I'm gonna do it!"

But I never did it!

You know, because

it gets stuck!

You get stuck in the rut

and then you don't know

what to do!

We just get stuck!

You know what I mean,

huh?!

You know what I mean?

Really what I'm talking about

here, huh?!

You know what I'm talking

about here or what, huh?!

[engine shuts down]

[waves crashing]

Can you believe this?!

No, I can't believe it!

All right, change it before

I miss my flight!

I can't!

What do you mean you

can't?!

The spare is flat, too!

Great!

No, it happened this

morning!

It happened this morning

and I did not have

a chance to get it fixed!
