I picked up this magazine for you.

There's this great article on kids' health.

-Thanks. Hey.|-Yeah.

So, how was your day?

It was good.|Do you wanna read to your brother?

-Okay.|-Yeah, go ahead and read to him.

It was really good. How was yours?

-I had a great day. I did.|-Yeah?

Yeah, I mean, it was a heavy workload

-but it was still a great day.|-Okay.

You know what I wanna know, right?

What are you talking about?

Pat and Gavin, honey. What happened?

You know I can't talk about it, right?|You know that.

But I will say that|you probably should go see him.

-Yeah.|-I bought these flowers.

-Don't they smell great?|-Yeah.

Yeah, they smell good.

Mom, Dad taught me how to do fractions.

He did? Well, that's fantastic!

Terry. Terry. Terry!

-Feel like chicken?|-Yeah, chicken.

-Yeah?|-Yeah.

Chicken it is. Great.

You must've had a really great day at work.

You're so happy, honey.

-It was a good day. Yeah!|-Yeah?

-These come with a card?|-No.

-No?|-No...

There's a stick for a card.

Right. Well, you know,|the florist must've made a mistake.

The florist made a mistake, huh?

Okay. I'm gonna get started on the chicken.

I hope you kids are hungry,|'cause I'm making chicken!

There you go. And what about you?

-I'm all right.|-All right, okay!

-I wanna watch my dad.|-Okey-doke.

-There he is!|-...he's gonna throw into

that much traffic? What was he thinking?

I don't know what he was thinking...

-Hey, where's Marcus at?|-Excuse me, ma'am.

-Marcus!|-Ma'am, you can't go out there.

-Wait a minute. What's this?|-Angela?

-Marcus.|-Lady, we're live.

I don't give a damn about you being live!

How you doing, Rodney?

Marcus, who the hell|have you had at my house?

On Tuesdays and Thursdays|at noon, Marcus?

Maybe we should watch something else.

You are a nasty...

Wow.

Marcus' nasty behind|has the nerve to have some hos

with them little wide receivers,|with them tight ends,

having touchdowns up in my bed!

Your nasty ass... I'm so sick of this!

Marcus! Who'd you have in my bed?

Well, evidently we have some|late-breaking Marcus news.

And we'll have that for you|when Sports Shuffle comes back.

Don't go anywhere.

What is this, Springer?

And we're out. Let's go to commercial.

You are like three crazy people!

Oh, yeah? You know what, Marcus?|You ain't seen crazy.

Who did you have at my house in my bed?

How many times I got to tell you? Nobody!

You are such a liar.

-You trying to make me lose my job?|-I don't give a damn about this job!

You're about to lose your wife|and your kids!

You're so damn evil!

Yeah? You ain't seen evil.

What do you want?|You want the cell phone? Is that what it is?

All right, I'll give you the cell phone.

I'll give you the cell phone. Here you go.

Take the damn cell phone. All right?

The password to my cell phone|and the e-mail is your damn birthday.

Now, just get to stepping,|so I can keep my job.

'Cause you know good and damn well|we need the money,

because your damn salon|ain't bringing in jack!

That's what you think this is?

Because I'm going through a recession?

That that justifies you to bring|somebody into my bed, Marcus?

Are you listening to anything|that I'm saying,

or just the crazy people in your own head?

Get your ass out of here,|so I can make us some money.

Yeah, I'm leaving, but this ain't over with.

Where is my damn purse? I'll see you later.

What y'all doing, you little nosy-ass...

Just going over notes.

-...Sports Shuffle people?|-Just doing notes.

-Yeah.|-Wow.

I'm done with this, Marcus!|I'm not taking this from you no more!

-I'm about to dump you...|-Are we back?

And we're back in five, four, three...

No, I can't...

Listen, I'll talk to you later.|He just got in, okay? Bye.

You know, I think it's best if I move out.

It's a good idea.

How do you do that?

Always have to be in control,|never show any emotion?

You've been drinking again,|haven't you, Gavin?

What do you want me to do? My wife

doesn't love me.

You know who does love me?

Your co-worker.

What's her name? Denise.|She's been calling me. She's...

"Gavin, I love you."

You know what you are right now?|Pathetic!

Be an adult, okay? Settle this, Gavin.

Give me the money!

Stop drinking, okay?

You know what?|You need to have a drink, okay?

Gavin, you're not taking our pictures.

-You're not taking those pictures!|-What do you...

What do you care about, okay?

You didn't shed one tear|when our son died.

-That's enough. That's enough.|-Okay?

Don't talk to me about no damn pictures.

No. You know what?

Gavin, stop!

No, you're gonna sit here...

You're gonna sit here|and you're gonna listen to me, okay?

-I'm gonna tell you...|-Stop it!

...what I've been holding on to|this whole marriage.

You're drunk. Look, you're...

-How about it? You want to join me?|-Stop it!

Let's drink together.

-Gavin, stop it!|-Nope.

-Stop it!|-Cheers, baby.

You're drunk.

I'm gonna tell you.

You say purge, right? No, no, no...

No, get off of me! Get off of me!

Baby, listen.

-Now, isn't this what you tell your readers?|-Get off of me!

You tell your readers to purge, right?|To purge?

I'm gonna purge. Now, listen to me.|I'm gonna purge.

-I'm gonna purge... No, listen...|-Don't touch me. You're hurting me!

-Doctor, doctor, listen to your patient.|-Don't touch me.

Listen to your patient.

I'm gonna purge. I'm gonna dump.

No, no. This is what you tell them?

-I'm gonna purge. I'm gonna dump.|-Get off of me.

No, listen. Just tell me. Tell me something.

Baby, listen, no, no. Listen, tell me.

Why... Why do you always have to...

Why do you always have to be right?|Why do you have to be in control?

Just tell me something.|What happened to you?

What happened to you?|What makes you like that, huh?

No, no, just tell me.|Tell me what makes you like that.

-You...|-Leave me, Gavin.

-You got all this advice for everybody...|-Get off of me.

-No, no...|-Get off of me...

-You got advice for everybody...|-Get off. You're hurting me!

-...but you don't want to help yourself!|-Get off of me.

-You don't want to...|-Let go!

You're sick! You're psychotic!

-Baby, listen...|-You've gone crazy!

Hey! Baby!

No. No, Gavin.

Not the baby's pictures!|Those are the only ones we have!

Gavin, don't!

-You like that? You like that?|-No! No! No!

I love you.

I love you. I love you.

Okay.

Okay. Okay.

-Hey, babe.|-Hey.

I'm glad you called me.

-How are you?|-I'm fine.

I can't lie, I was...|I was shocked when I got your call.

I really was.

I knew you missed me.

Stop.

Joke.

I'm just here because I need a favor.

What is it?

I cannot believe I'm asking you this.

What is it?

Are you still friends with|the chief of police?

Do you still play golf with him?

Yeah, why?

Troy's been trying to get a job and|they've been giving him the run-around.

Can you help him?

Sheila.

Just a yes or a no.

Sure.

Sure, I'll give him a call.

Thank you.

Is that the only reason you came?

Yeah.

But, Mike,|Troy cannot know about this, okay?
