323. Nor do I think
it's very intelligentCopy !req
324. to keep an electrical gadget

461. for everyone?Copy !req
462. I speak for myself.Copy !req
463. Well, you've
made your views known.Copy !req
464. Let somebody else do some of
the talking now.Copy !req
465. What do you propose to do?Copy !req
466. I can't say, really.Copy !req
467. Um, make up for lost time,
I suppose.Copy !req
468. First thing I want to do isCopy !req
469. take you out to see
your grandmother, at some point.Copy !req
470. I haven't been out there
since I was six.Copy !req
471. I haven't been out there at all.Copy !req
472. I was never invited.Copy !req
473. Well, she wasn't
your real grandmotherCopy !req
474. and I never knew how much
interest you had, uh, sweetie.Copy !req
475. Anyway, you're invited now.Copy !req
476. Thanks.Copy !req
477. You know, Rachael's buriedCopy !req
478. out there, too.Copy !req
479. Who?Copy !req
480. My wife.Copy !req
481. Oh, that's right, isn't it?Copy !req
482. Well, we'll have to swing
by her grave, too.Copy !req
483. Uh, I'll be right back.Copy !req
484. Chas.Copy !req
485. Chas.Copy !req
486. Can I see my grandsons?Copy !req
487. Why?Copy !req
488. Because I finally want
to meet them.Copy !req
489. Don't give me that guff.Copy !req
490. I think we'll pass.Copy !req
491. Pagoda...Copy !req
492. where's my Havelina?Copy !req
493. I'll say good-night
to you now, children.Copy !req
494. Dad.Copy !req
495. Thank you, my sweet boy.Copy !req
496. I'll contact you
in the next 12 hoursCopy !req
497. with further instructions.Copy !req
498. Look at that oldCopy !req
499. grizzly bear.Copy !req
500. Hello, Ethel.Copy !req
501. Good evening, sir.Copy !req
502. Hold the cab, will you, driver?Copy !req
503. Royal, this is Henry Sherman.Copy !req
504. Hey, lay it on me, man.Copy !req
505. How do you do?Copy !req
506. Not too well. I'm dying.Copy !req
507. How's Richie?Copy !req
508. I don't know.Copy !req
509. I can't tell.Copy !req
510. Yeah, me neither.Copy !req
511. He wrote me a letter.Copy !req
512. He says he's in love with you.Copy !req
513. What are you talking about?Copy !req
514. That's what he said.Copy !req
515. I don't know how we're
supposed to take it.Copy !req
516. Hang on.Copy !req
517. Hello.Copy !req
518. Sugar, it's Eli.Copy !req
519. Hey, baby, give me a second.Copy !req
520. What are we doing, Eli?Copy !req
521. Oh, I just got to pick
something up.Copy !req
522. Don't repeat that, by the way.Copy !req
523. About Richie.Copy !req
524. It was told to me in
confidence, and, you know...Copy !req
525. Good.Copy !req
526. Now just remove the loose soilCopy !req
527. and note the
decomposition levels.Copy !req
528. I'm sorry to interrupt
your work.Copy !req
529. Don't be silly.Copy !req
530. Come on.Copy !req
531. I just want to apologize
for the other dayCopy !req
532. when I proposed to you.Copy !req
533. Why?Copy !req
534. I thought it was very sweet.Copy !req
535. I know I'm not as accomplished
as some of the menCopy !req
536. you've been involved with.Copy !req
537. Uh, Franklin Benedict,
General Cartwright,Copy !req
538. and your ex-husband.Copy !req
539. Oh, that's ridiculous.Copy !req
540. But, but, I feel...Copy !req
541. I can offer
just as much as them.Copy !req
542. I know I went about it
backwards, but...Copy !req
543. Henry, I have no interest
in Franklin BenedictCopy !req
544. or Doug Cartwright -
I never did...Copy !req
545. and as far as Royal's concerned,
he's the most...Copy !req
546. Henry?Copy !req
547. Henry, are you all right?Copy !req
548. Yeah, I'm fine.
I'm fine.Copy !req
549. Anyway, let me know
when you make up your mind.Copy !req
550. Henry, wait a second.Copy !req
551. I'm sorry, I'm very nervous.Copy !req
552. Th-That's okay.Copy !req
553. Oh, thank you.Copy !req
554. Why are you so nervous?Copy !req
555. Well, to tell you the truthCopy !req
556. I haven't slept
with a man in 18 years.Copy !req
557. That's a hell of an old
hound dog you got there.Copy !req
558. What's he go by?Copy !req
559. Buckley.Copy !req
560. Buckley, sit.Copy !req
561. You know who I am?Copy !req
562. I'm Royal.Copy !req
563. Have you heard of me?Copy !req
564. I'm very sorry for your loss.Copy !req
565. Your mother was a terribly
attractive woman.Copy !req
566. Thank you.Copy !req
567. Which one are you?Copy !req
568. Ari.Copy !req
569. Uzi, I'm your granddad.Copy !req
570. Hello.Copy !req
571. I'm sorry we haven't gotten
to know each other.Copy !req
572. I don't get invited around
very much.Copy !req
573. What do you think of that,
by the way?Copy !req
574. Oh, you...Copy !req
575. you don't have to say anything.Copy !req
576. It's kind of a "fuck you"
to the old man, I guess.Copy !req
577. How's your daddy?Copy !req
578. Fine.Copy !req
579. You think so, huh?Copy !req
580. How often has he got you
working out?Copy !req
581. 16 times a week.Copy !req
582. Do me a favor.Copy !req
583. Tell him you want to meet me.Copy !req
584. But we just met.Copy !req
585. No, we didn't.Copy !req
586. Look, I'd like us to have
a relationshipCopy !req
587. but we have to pull some strings
to make it happen.Copy !req
588. Now, here's what you tell him.
You say...Copy !req
589. Well, I bet
Mom would have wanted usCopy !req
590. to meet him before he died.Copy !req
591. Wouldn't she?Copy !req
592. Don't you think?Copy !req
593. She was a tough old broad,
wasn't she?Copy !req
594. I wouldn't know.Copy !req
595. Excuse me.
Come on.Copy !req
596. Oh, that's right.Copy !req
597. We've got another body
buried here, haven't we?Copy !req
598. Uh, hold on.Copy !req
599. Take some of these.Copy !req
600. Come on.Copy !req
601. So what do you think of
this big, old black buckCopy !req
602. moving in up there?Copy !req
603. Who?Copy !req
604. Henry Sherman.Copy !req
605. You know him?Copy !req
606. Yeah.Copy !req
607. Is he worth a damn?Copy !req
608. I believe so.Copy !req
609. What happened to your finger?Copy !req
610. Uzi, shh.Copy !req
611. It's okay, I'll tell you.Copy !req
612. I'm adopted. Did you know that?Copy !req
613. Well, I am.Copy !req
614. When I was 14, I went to find
my real family.Copy !req
615. They live in Indiana.Copy !req
616. All right, now, just set one
of them hickory trunksCopy !req
617. right up top there,
sister Maggie.Copy !req
618. Did you try to sew it back on?Copy !req
619. Wasn't worth it.Copy !req
620. Hell of a damn grave.Copy !req
621. Wish it were mine.Copy !req
622. It's a shame, isn't it?Copy !req
623. What?Copy !req
624. Well, you probably had another
good two or three yearsCopy !req
625. of competitive play in you.Copy !req
626. Probably.Copy !req
627. I had a lot riding on
that match, you know.Copy !req
628. Financially and personally.Copy !req
629. Why did you choke out
there that day, Baumer?Copy !req
630. Mr. Gandhi leads 40-15.Copy !req
631. That's 72 unforced errorsCopy !req
632. for Richie Tenenbaum.Copy !req
633. He's playing the worst tennis
of his life.Copy !req
634. What's he feeling right now,
Tex Hayward?Copy !req
635. I don't know, Jim.Copy !req
636. There's obviously
something wrong with him.Copy !req
637. He's taken off his shoes
and one of his socksCopy !req
638. and... actually,
I think he's crying.Copy !req
639. I think you're right.Copy !req
640. Who's he looking at
in the friends' box, Tex?Copy !req
641. That's his sister, MargotCopy !req
642. and her new husband,
Raleigh St. Clair.Copy !req
643. They were just married
yesterday, Jim.Copy !req
644. Oh, yes.Copy !req
645. I've never seen anything
like this.Copy !req
646. Neither have I.Copy !req
647. Strange day out here
at Windswept Fields.Copy !req
648. I kind of disappeared
after that, didn't I?Copy !req
649. Yeah.Copy !req
650. But I understood.Copy !req
651. I know you're not very good
with disappointment.Copy !req
652. You still got that little BBCopy !req
653. in your hand, Chassie?Copy !req
654. Why did you shoot me?Copy !req
655. It was the object
of the game, wasn't it?Copy !req
656. No.Copy !req
657. We were on the same team.Copy !req
658. Were we?Copy !req
659. Well... you sued me.Copy !req
660. Twice. Got me disbarred.Copy !req
661. I don't hold it
against you, do I?Copy !req
662. And how is it possibleCopy !req
663. for Mr. Tenenbaum
to withdraw these fundsCopy !req
664. without your written
authorization?Copy !req
665. Objection, Your Honor.
Damn it, I...Copy !req
666. Why don't you leave
the objections to me, Royal?Copy !req
667. Because I started the
corporation when I was a minor.Copy !req
668. So, my father
was the primary signatoryCopy !req
669. on most of my accounts.Copy !req
670. He also stole bondsCopy !req
671. out of my safety deposit box
when I was 14.Copy !req
672. You think you could
start forgiving me?Copy !req
673. Why should I?Copy !req
674. Because you're hurting me.Copy !req
675. Come on.Copy !req
676. Were you in prison?Copy !req
677. Kind of.Copy !req
678. Minimum security.Copy !req
679. I got jacked by the IRS.Copy !req
680. Should we split?Copy !req
681. Yes, sir.Copy !req
682. No, call me Mr. Tenenbaum.Copy !req
683. Okay.Copy !req
684. No, I'm kidding; call me Pappy.Copy !req
685. Okay.Copy !req
686. Come on, let's shag ass.Copy !req
687. Well, just let me knowCopy !req
688. if you need somebody
to talk to, okay?Copy !req
689. I like Raleigh very much.Copy !req
690. I know he's a lot older
than you areCopy !req
691. and you two are having
some problemsCopy !req
692. but... anyway,
maybe I can help.Copy !req
693. Okay. Thanks.Copy !req
694. Hey, Baumer! All right!Copy !req
695. All right! Ha!
Oh, shit! Oh, Jesus.Copy !req
696. By the way, I heard about
that letter you sent to Eli.Copy !req
697. You dropped some cigarettes.Copy !req
698. Those aren't mine.Copy !req
699. They just fell
out of your pocket.Copy !req
700. Oh, my Lord, look at you.Copy !req
701. Come in.Copy !req
702. Did you tell MargotCopy !req
703. about that letter
I wrote to you?Copy !req
704. Why? Did she mention it?Copy !req
705. Yes, I did.Copy !req
706. Why would she
have repeated that, I wonder?Copy !req
707. Well, I would ask you
the same question.Copy !req
708. Rightly so.Copy !req
709. What'd you say?Copy !req
710. Hmm?Copy !req
711. What?Copy !req
712. I didn't say anything.Copy !req
713. When? Right now?Copy !req
714. I'm sorry; don't listen to me.Copy !req
715. I'm on mescaline.Copy !req
716. I've been spaced out all day.Copy !req
717. Did you say you're on mescaline?Copy !req
718. I did, indeed.Copy !req
719. Very much so.Copy !req
720. How often do you, uh...?Copy !req
721. I'm worried about you, Richie.Copy !req
722. Why?Copy !req
723. Well, actually, Margot is,
for some reason.Copy !req
724. But I did find it oddCopy !req
725. when you said
you were in love with her.Copy !req
726. She's married, you know.Copy !req
727. Yeah.Copy !req
728. And she's your sister.Copy !req
729. Adopted.Copy !req
730. Where are my encyclopedias?Copy !req
731. They've been placed in storage.Copy !req
732. Well, damn you.
You're taking my encyclopedias.Copy !req
733. - Th-this is humiliating.
- I'm sorry.Copy !req
734. Would you like to make
a complaint in writing?Copy !req
735. Where am I supposed to go?Copy !req
736. You're turning me
into a damn hobo.Copy !req
737. I'd be happy to make
a reservation for youCopy !req
738. - at another hotel.
- You son of a bitch.Copy !req
739. Frederick.Copy !req
740. Hello there, Dusty.Copy !req
741. Hello.Copy !req
742. Could you spot me a quarter?Copy !req
743. Of course.Copy !req
744. Richie? Hi.Copy !req
745. It's your dad.Copy !req
746. I think he's very lonely...Copy !req
747. Ionelier than he lets onCopy !req
748. maybe lonelier
than he even realizes.Copy !req
749. Have you spoken
to him about this?Copy !req
750. Briefly,
and he agreed that we...Copy !req
751. I'm sorry, maybe I'm
a little confused here.Copy !req
752. What are you suggesting?Copy !req
753. That he come here
and stay in my room.Copy !req
754. Are you out of your mind?Copy !req
755. No, I'm not.
Anyway, I think thatCopy !req
756. he'd be much more comfortable
here than he would...Copy !req
757. Who gives a shit?Copy !req
758. I do.Copy !req
759. You poor sucker.Copy !req
760. You poor, washed-up papa's boy.Copy !req
761. All right, let's not
get out of hand.Copy !req
762. Please, don't get in the middle
of this, Mr. Sherman.Copy !req
763. This is a family matter.Copy !req
764. Don't talk to him like that.Copy !req
765. - Call me Henry.
- I prefer Mr. Sherman.Copy !req
766. Call him Henry.Copy !req
767. Why? I don't know him
that well.Copy !req
768. You've known him for ten years.Copy !req
769. As your accountant,
Mr. Sherman, yes.Copy !req
770. Where are you going to sleep?Copy !req
771. I'm just going
to camp out upstairs.Copy !req
772. We brought our sleeping bag...Copy !req
773. Uzi!Copy !req
774. We don't mind, Dad.Copy !req
775. We like him.Copy !req
776. Who, Pappy?Copy !req
777. "Pappy"?Copy !req
778. He can sleep in
the room above us.Copy !req
779. Ari, it's not your decision.Copy !req
780. Nor is it yours.Copy !req
781. Well, he's already up there.Copy !req
782. What?Copy !req
783. I think he's asleepCopy !req
784. because of the medication
he's onCopy !req
785. but I... I guess you can
wake him up and throw him out...Copy !req
786. if Mom says it's okay.Copy !req
787. Get out.Copy !req
788. All right.Copy !req
789. Let me just collect my things.Copy !req
790. Would you mind handing me
my cane, Richie?Copy !req
791. Let me see,
where's my suitcases?Copy !req
792. I'll get 'em.Copy !req
793. Oh, thanks.Copy !req
794. Oh!Copy !req
795. Dad!Copy !req
796. Mom!Copy !req
797. Grab me a Nembutal,
will you, son?Copy !req
798. Are you okay?Copy !req
799. What the fuck you care?Copy !req
800. Oh, my goodness.Copy !req
801. Pagoda?Copy !req
802. Call Doctor McClure.Copy !req
803. Take a breath and hold it.Copy !req
804. Now cough.Copy !req
805. His condition is stable.Copy !req
806. The attack was
just a side effect.Copy !req
807. I recommend you push fluidsCopy !req
808. and continue the stomach cancer
medication.Copy !req
809. Can we move him?Copy !req
810. Absolutely not.Copy !req
811. For how long?Copy !req
812. We'll have to wait and see.Copy !req
813. Is he going to be all right?Copy !req
814. That depends. Is he a fighter?Copy !req
815. Yeah.Copy !req
816. Then that's the best we've got.Copy !req
817. Pagoda's in possessionCopy !req
818. of a parcel containing my willCopy !req
819. and some instructions
for the funeralCopy !req
820. including my epitaph,
for when the time comes.Copy !req
821. Proofread it for meCopy !req
822. before they carve it
on the headstone, okay?Copy !req
823. Okay.Copy !req
824. I never did stop loving you,
by the way.Copy !req
825. Do you believe that?Copy !req
826. Not really.Copy !req
827. You look terrific.Copy !req
828. That dress is stunning.Copy !req
829. Thanks.Copy !req
830. Lights out, old man.Copy !req
831. I thought I'd read
for a while, Chas.Copy !req
832. Sorry. 11:30. Lights out.Copy !req
833. I'm right in the middle
of a sentence.Copy !req
834. Well, you'll have to finish it
in the morning.Copy !req
835. Them's the rules.Copy !req
836. Chas?Copy !req
837. Good night, my boy.Copy !req
838. Looks like you and Dad are
back together again, huh?Copy !req
839. He's your dad, too, Chas.Copy !req
840. - No, he's not.
- Yes, he is.Copy !req
841. You really hate me, don't you?Copy !req
842. No. I don't. I love you.Copy !req
843. Well, I don't know
what you thinkCopy !req
844. you're going to get out of thisCopy !req
845. but believe me, whatever it is,
it's not worth it.Copy !req
846. Chas...Copy !req
847. I don't want to hurt you.Copy !req
848. I know what you and the boys
have been through.Copy !req
849. You're my brother,
and I love you.Copy !req
850. Stop saying that!Copy !req
851. What's that jackass doing?Copy !req
852. I know you, asshole!Copy !req
853. Did Eli send you that?Copy !req
854. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
855. He always sends me
his clippings.Copy !req
856. What for?Copy !req
857. I think he just likes
the encouragement.Copy !req
858. He's done it for years.Copy !req
859. He used to send me
his grades in college.Copy !req
860. That's ridiculous.Copy !req
861. How long do you intend
to stay here?Copy !req
862. I don't know.Copy !req
863. Are you ever coming home?Copy !req
864. Maybe not.Copy !req
865. You're joking.Copy !req
866. No.Copy !req
867. Well, I want to die.Copy !req
868. Raleigh, please...Copy !req
869. Have you met someone else?Copy !req
870. I couldn't even begin
to think aboutCopy !req
871. knowing how to answer
that question.Copy !req
872. I don't like the way
you're treating Raleigh.Copy !req
873. What are you talking about?Copy !req
874. You don't even know him.Copy !req
875. Well, I've met him,
and I don't think he deserves...Copy !req
876. Stay out of it.Copy !req
877. You're two-timing him
with that bloodsuckerCopy !req
878. Eli Cash.Copy !req
879. Now, that's just not right,
damn it.Copy !req
880. You used to be a genius.Copy !req
881. No, I didn't.Copy !req
882. Anyway, that's what
they used to say.Copy !req
883. Richard, I know you're
terribly close to MargotCopy !req
884. and probably understand
her better than anyone.Copy !req
885. May I confide in you?Copy !req
886. Okay.Copy !req
887. I believe
she's having an affair.Copy !req
888. I'm utterly devastated.Copy !req
889. I... don't know
where else to turn.Copy !req
890. Will you advise me?Copy !req
891. I don't know.Copy !req
892. What do you want to do?Copy !req
893. I don't know.Copy !req
894. Perhaps, uh...Copy !req
895. Find the guy and get him?Copy !req
896. Well, no, I thought we could...Copy !req
897. Who do you think it might be?Copy !req
898. I don't know at the moment.Copy !req
899. Let's look
at the actuals, okay?Copy !req
900. I agree with you
a hundred percent.Copy !req
901. That's why we have
marketing grids.Copy !req
902. Hey.Copy !req
903. What do you say
we go down to Little TokyoCopy !req
904. and get some fireworks?Copy !req
905. What do you need?Copy !req
906. Nothing.Copy !req
907. I see you got them,
uh, crunching numbers for you.Copy !req
908. Please don't come in this room.Copy !req
909. Chas has those boys cooped upCopy !req
910. like a pair ofjackrabbits,
Etheline.Copy !req
911. He has his reasons.Copy !req
912. Oh, I know thatCopy !req
913. but you can't raise boys
to be scared of life.Copy !req
914. You got to brew
some recklessness into them.Copy !req
915. I think that's terrible advice.Copy !req
916. No, you don't.Copy !req
917. We take boxing
and self-defense classes.Copy !req
918. I'm not talking
about dance lessons.Copy !req
919. I'm talking about
putting a brickCopy !req
920. through the other guy's
windshield.Copy !req
921. I'm talking about taking it out
and chopping it up.Copy !req
922. What do you mean?Copy !req
923. Go!Copy !req
924. Come here.Copy !req
925. Whoo-hoo!Copy !req
926. Yippee!Copy !req
927. He saved my life, you know.Copy !req
928. 30 years ago, I was
knifed in a bazaar
in Calcutta.Copy !req
929. He carried me
to the hospital on his back.Copy !req
930. Who stabbed you?Copy !req
931. He did.Copy !req
932. Yeah, there was
a price on my headCopy !req
933. and he was a hired assassin.Copy !req
934. Stuck me right in the gut
with a shiv.Copy !req
935. Hey!Copy !req
936. What?Copy !req
937. Where have you been?Copy !req
938. Uh, we just stepped
out to get some air.Copy !req
939. What's that?Copy !req
940. Holy shit.Copy !req
941. That's not...?Copy !req
942. What is that?Copy !req
943. Oh, no, no,
that's, uh, dog's blood.Copy !req
944. Come here.Copy !req
945. What?Copy !req
946. You stay away from my children.Copy !req
947. Do you understand?Copy !req
948. My God, I haven't been
in here for years.Copy !req
949. Hey! Are you listening to me!Copy !req
950. Yes, I am!Copy !req
951. I think you've having
a nervous breakdown!Copy !req
952. I don't think you recoveredCopy !req
953. from Rachael's death.Copy !req
954. I...Copy !req
955. There you are.Copy !req
956. How are you feeling?Copy !req
957. I'm having a ball.Copy !req
958. Scrapping and yelling
and mixing it up.Copy !req
959. Loving every minute
with this damn crew.Copy !req
960. I want to thank you
for raising our childrenCopy !req
961. by the way.Copy !req
962. Okay.Copy !req
963. I'm not kidding.Copy !req
964. You always put them first,
didn't you?Copy !req
965. I tried to.Copy !req
966. Lately I feel like maybe
I didn't do such a great job.Copy !req
967. Goddamn it,
don't do that to yourself.Copy !req
968. I'm the one that failed them.Copy !req
969. Or, anyway,
it's nobody's fault.Copy !req
970. Plus, that - it doesn't...Copy !req
971. Why didn't you give
a damn about us, Royal?Copy !req
972. Why didn't you care?Copy !req
973. I don't know.Copy !req
974. I'm ashamed of myself.Copy !req
975. I'll tell you
one thing, though...Copy !req
976. you got more grit, fire and gutsCopy !req
977. than any woman I have ever met.Copy !req
978. What... what are you
smiling about?Copy !req
979. Nothing.Copy !req
980. No, wha...
what's so funny?Copy !req
981. Nothing.Copy !req
982. It's these little
expressions of yours.Copy !req
983. I don't know
what you're talking aboutCopy !req
984. but I'll take it
as a compliment.Copy !req
985. You're true blue, Ethel.Copy !req
986. You really are.Copy !req
987. How's your love life?Copy !req
988. None of your business.Copy !req
989. I'd like you to talk
to Royal about usCopy !req
990. if you don't mind.Copy !req
991. I don't think the timing's right
for that, Henry.Copy !req
992. Well, I'd agreeCopy !req
993. if I thought he was really
going to die in six weeksCopy !req
994. but I don't.Copy !req
995. Well, I hope you're right.Copy !req
996. Actually, I don't believe
I'll join you tonight.Copy !req
997. I'll call you in the morning.Copy !req
998. She said that?Copy !req
999. Great.Copy !req
1000. Got the sucker on the ropes.Copy !req
1001. Can I ask you something, Hank?Copy !req
1002. Okay.Copy !req
1003. Are you trying
to steal my woman?Copy !req
1004. I beg your pardon?Copy !req
1005. You heard me, Coltrane.Copy !req
1006. Coltrane?Copy !req
1007. What?Copy !req
1008. Did you just call me "Coltrane"?Copy !req
1009. No.Copy !req
1010. You didn't?Copy !req
1011. No.Copy !req
1012. Okay.Copy !req
1013. But if I did...Copy !req
1014. you wouldn't be able to do
anything about it, would you?Copy !req
1015. You don't think so?Copy !req
1016. No, I don't.Copy !req
1017. Listen, RoyalCopy !req
1018. if you think
you can march in here...Copy !req
1019. You want to talk some jive?Copy !req
1020. I'll talk some jive.Copy !req
1021. I'll talk some jive
like you've never heard.Copy !req
1022. - Oh, yeah?
- Right on!Copy !req
1023. - Sit down.
- What?Copy !req
1024. Wh-what did you say?Copy !req
1025. I said sit down, goddamn it!Copy !req
1026. Oh, I heard you!
I want you out of my house!Copy !req
1027. This is not your house!Copy !req
1028. I want your raggedy ass out!Copy !req
1029. Don't talk semantics with me.Copy !req
1030. Oh, this is not your...Copy !req
1031. What's going on here?Copy !req
1032. Nothing.Copy !req
1033. Mmm.Copy !req
1034. Hello, I'm calling in regards
to a Dr. McClure - yes...Copy !req
1035. at Colby General.Copy !req
1036. The name of the patient
is Royal Tenenbaum.Copy !req
1037. Hmm...Copy !req
1038. Is that a Tic-Tac?Copy !req
1039. How much is he paying you?Copy !req
1040. I don't know what
you're talking about.Copy !req
1041. Well, I grew up with the
Tenenbaum family, you know.Copy !req
1042. Right.Copy !req
1043. Across the street.Copy !req
1044. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
1045. They've fallen on hard times
now, haven't they?Copy !req
1046. I can't say no.Copy !req
1047. This is bullshit.Copy !req
1048. Change it, huh?Copy !req
1049. What did you do to your hand?Copy !req
1050. Uh, nothing.Copy !req
1051. Can we get somebody over hereCopy !req
1052. to kill these mice for us?Copy !req
1053. No. They belong to Chas.Copy !req
1054. Or anyway, he invented them.Copy !req
1055. Well, get him to stick them
in a fucking cageCopy !req
1056. or something.Copy !req
1057. Etheline... mind coming up here
for a minute, please?Copy !req
1058. What's cooking, Pops?Copy !req
1059. You'll see.Copy !req
1060. Now, your previous novel...Copy !req
1061. Yes. Wildcat.Copy !req
1062. Right.Copy !req
1063. Not a success.Copy !req
1064. Why?Copy !req
1065. Well, Wildcat was written
in a kind of obsoleteCopy !req
1066. vernacular...Copy !req
1067. Wildcat...Copy !req
1068. Wild... cat...Copy !req
1069. Wildcat...Copy !req
1070. I'm going to go.Copy !req
1071. I'm taking this off
and I'm going.Copy !req
1072. Stepping out.Copy !req
1073. What the hell
kind of way to act is that?Copy !req
1074. Open the door.Copy !req
1075. He's on drugs.Copy !req
1076. I'll be right back.Copy !req
1077. James Bradley...Copy !req
1078. Hold on a minute, please.Copy !req
1079. What's going on?Copy !req
1080. Pagoda has something to say.Copy !req
1081. He has a cancer.Copy !req
1082. No, he doesn't.Copy !req
1083. I know what stomach cancer
looks like.Copy !req
1084. I've seen it.Copy !req
1085. And you don't eatCopy !req
1086. three cheeseburgers a day
with French fries if you got it.Copy !req
1087. The pain is excruciating.Copy !req
1088. How would you know?Copy !req
1089. My wife had it.Copy !req
1090. Not only is there
no Dr. McClure at Colby GeneralCopy !req
1091. there is no Colby General.Copy !req
1092. It closed in 1974.Copy !req
1093. Aw, shit, man.Copy !req
1094. Oh, shit, man.Copy !req
1095. Yes, can you send a taxiCopy !req
1096. to 1 1 1 Archer Avenue
right away, please?Copy !req
1097. Thank you.Copy !req
1098. I guess we're back out
on the street, huh, pal?Copy !req
1099. Were you part of this, Pagoda?Copy !req
1100. Of course he was.Copy !req
1101. No, well, yeah, he wasCopy !req
1102. but, I mean,
he wasn't that involved.Copy !req
1103. Where'd you get all
these medical supplies?Copy !req
1104. A guy at St. Pete's
owed me a favor.Copy !req
1105. I did some malpractice work
for him.Copy !req
1106. I do have
high blood pressure, though.Copy !req
1107. Look, I know I'm going to be
the bad guy on this one.Copy !req
1108. But I just want to say,
the last six days have beenCopy !req
1109. the best six days
of probably my whole life.Copy !req
1110. lmmediately after
making this statementCopy !req
1111. Royal realized
that it was true.Copy !req
1112. Why'd you do this to us, Royal?Copy !req
1113. What was the point?Copy !req
1114. I thought I could win you back.Copy !req
1115. And then I thought I could
get rid of Henry...Copy !req
1116. and at least keep
the status quo.Copy !req
1117. But we hadn't spoken
in seven years.Copy !req
1118. I know.Copy !req
1119. Plus, uh...Copy !req
1120. I was broke.Copy !req
1121. And I got kicked out
of my hotel.Copy !req
1122. You're a bastard.Copy !req
1123. Good-bye, Royal.Copy !req
1124. Take it easy
on those boys, Chassie.Copy !req
1125. I don't want this
to happen to you.Copy !req
1126. You know, Richie, this illness,
this closeness to deathCopy !req
1127. has had a profound effect
on me.Copy !req
1128. I-I feel like a different
person, I really do.Copy !req
1129. Dad, you were never dying.Copy !req
1130. But I'm going to live.Copy !req
1131. He's not your father.Copy !req
1132. Neither are you.Copy !req
1133. You son of a bitch!Copy !req
1134. God... damn...Copy !req
1135. That's the last time you put
a knife in me, hear me?Copy !req
1136. The 375th Street Y, please.Copy !req
1137. Everyone's against me.Copy !req
1138. It's your fault, man.Copy !req
1139. Yeah, I know, but damn it,
I want this family to love me.Copy !req
1140. How much money you got?Copy !req
1141. I don't have.Copy !req
1142. What, you're broke?Copy !req
1143. You got to be kidding me.Copy !req
1144. How are we going to pay
for this room?Copy !req
1145. All right,
we'll think of something.Copy !req
1146. Ow.Copy !req
1147. I'm not in love
with you anymore.Copy !req
1148. I didn't know you ever were.Copy !req
1149. Let's not make this
any more difficultCopy !req
1150. than it already is.Copy !req
1151. Okay.Copy !req
1152. Okay, what?Copy !req
1153. Okay, I'm not in love
with you, either.Copy !req
1154. Yes, I know;
you're in love with RichieCopy !req
1155. which is sick and gross.Copy !req
1156. Do you send my mother
your clippings...Copy !req
1157. and your grades from college?Copy !req
1158. Please stop belittling me.Copy !req
1159. You never gave me
the time of dayCopy !req
1160. till I started getting
good reviews.Copy !req
1161. Your reviews aren't that good.Copy !req
1162. But the sales are.Copy !req
1163. Gentlemen... how much
do you already know?Copy !req
1164. Very little, I'm afraid.Copy !req
1165. Would you like
to examine the report?Copy !req
1166. Yes.Copy !req
1167. She smokes.Copy !req
1168. Yes.Copy !req
1169. All right, well.Copy !req
1170. Everything seems
to be in order.Copy !req
1171. I'll contact you
in the next 24 hours.Copy !req
1172. I appreciate that.Copy !req
1173. Uh, which way are you leaning,
by the way?Copy !req
1174. I'll inform you of my decisionCopy !req
1175. at the appropriate time.Copy !req
1176. I get it.Copy !req
1177. Uh, Dusty, put in a good word
for us, will you?Copy !req
1178. I already did.Copy !req
1179. You want to play some word gamesCopy !req
1180. or do some experiments
on me or anything?Copy !req
1181. No.Copy !req
1182. I'm going to kill myself
tomorrow.Copy !req
1183. Dudley, where is he?Copy !req
1184. Who?Copy !req
1185. He'll probably sleep
for several hoursCopy !req
1186. and then I'll come back
to check on him.Copy !req
1187. All right?Copy !req
1188. How are you feeling?Copy !req
1189. Fine, thanks.Copy !req
1190. Are you in any pain?Copy !req
1191. Not really.Copy !req
1192. Why'd you try to kill yourself?Copy !req
1193. Don't press him right now.Copy !req
1194. I wrote a suicide note.Copy !req
1195. You did?Copy !req
1196. Yeah.Copy !req
1197. Right after I regained
consciousness.Copy !req
1198. Can we read it?Copy !req
1199. No.Copy !req
1200. Can you paraphrase it for us?Copy !req
1201. I don't think so.Copy !req
1202. Is it dark?Copy !req
1203. Of course it's dark.Copy !req
1204. It's a suicide note.Copy !req
1205. All right, that's enough.Copy !req
1206. Doctor said to let him sleep.Copy !req
1207. What?Copy !req
1208. Cover for us, will you, Dusty?Copy !req
1209. Yes. Yes, Royal.Copy !req
1210. You've made a cuckold of me.Copy !req
1211. I know.Copy !req
1212. Many times over.Copy !req
1213. I'm sorry.Copy !req
1214. And you nearly killed
your poor brother.Copy !req
1215. What's he talking about?Copy !req
1216. It doesn't matter.Copy !req
1217. She's balling Eli Cash.Copy !req
1218. Oh, my goodness.Copy !req
1219. May I have a cigarette?Copy !req
1220. What?Copy !req
1221. Shall I repeat the question?Copy !req
1222. You don't smoke.Copy !req
1223. I know that.Copy !req
1224. And a light.Copy !req
1225. Au revoir.Copy !req
1226. How long have you been
a smoker?Copy !req
1227. 22 years.Copy !req
1228. Well, I think you should quit.Copy !req
1229. How can I help?Copy !req
1230. Let me look at these forms.Copy !req
1231. Oh, Henry.Copy !req
1232. Richie Tenenbaum, please.Copy !req
1233. Your name?Copy !req
1234. Royal Tenenbaum.Copy !req
1235. I'm afraid visiting hours
are over, sir.Copy !req
1236. Wh-Wh-What does it say there -
they don't want me?Copy !req
1237. I-I'm sorry.Copy !req
1238. I have to refer you
to Dr. Burrows.Copy !req
1239. He'll be in tomorrow afternoon.Copy !req
1240. We could shimmy up that gutterCopy !req
1241. jump over that window ledgeCopy !req
1242. and then, uh, pry open
that ventilator shaft.Copy !req
1243. There he is.Copy !req
1244. Richie!Copy !req
1245. Richie.Copy !req
1246. Where's he going?Copy !req
1247. Richie!Copy !req
1248. Well, I have to sayCopy !req
1249. he didn't look half bad
for a suicide.Copy !req
1250. Attempted, anyway.Copy !req
1251. Thanks.Copy !req
1252. Who's there?Copy !req
1253. Hello?Copy !req
1254. W-What are you doing in my tent?Copy !req
1255. Just listening to some records.Copy !req
1256. Aren't you supposed to be
in the hospital?Copy !req
1257. I checked myself out.Copy !req
1258. How many stitches did you get?Copy !req
1259. I don't know.Copy !req
1260. You want to see?Copy !req
1261. Jesus.Copy !req
1262. Richie, that looks horrible.Copy !req
1263. I heard about your ex-husband.Copy !req
1264. Desmond?Copy !req
1265. I guess so.Copy !req
1266. I didn't get his name.Copy !req
1267. Yeah.Copy !req
1268. I met him in the ocean.Copy !req
1269. I was swimmingCopy !req
1270. and he came out to me
in a canoe.Copy !req
1271. We were only married nine days.Copy !req
1272. And I heard about Eli.Copy !req
1273. I know.Copy !req
1274. Poor Eli.Copy !req
1275. Anyway, they mostly
just talked about you.Copy !req
1276. They did?Copy !req
1277. Yeah.Copy !req
1278. I guess that was the attraction,
if you know what I mean.Copy !req
1279. I have to tell you something.Copy !req
1280. What's that?Copy !req
1281. I love you.Copy !req
1282. I love you, too.Copy !req
1283. I can't stop thinking
about you.Copy !req
1284. I went away for a year,
and it only got worseCopy !req
1285. and I don't know what to do.Copy !req
1286. Let's lie down for a minute.Copy !req
1287. This is the sleeping bagCopy !req
1288. we took to the museum,
isn't it?Copy !req
1289. Mm-hmm.Copy !req
1290. Why'd you do it?Copy !req
1291. Because of me?Copy !req
1292. Yeah, but it's not your fault.Copy !req
1293. You're not going
to do it again, are you?Copy !req
1294. I doubt it.Copy !req
1295. I think we're just going
to have to beCopy !req
1296. secretly in love with each otherCopy !req
1297. and leave it at that, Richie.Copy !req
1298. Lobby floor.Copy !req
1299. Thank you, sir.Copy !req
1300. Going up?Copy !req
1301. Yeah.Copy !req
1302. What floor, sir?Copy !req
1303. Doesn't matter.Copy !req
1304. So, you're
elevator operators now?Copy !req
1305. Yeah, just started.Copy !req
1306. We'll get a bump as soon
as we join the union.Copy !req
1307. What made you decide
to do that?Copy !req
1308. We're broke.Copy !req
1309. But in answer to your questionCopy !req
1310. I wanted to proveCopy !req
1311. I could pay my dues,
and whatnot.Copy !req
1312. I just hope somebody notices.Copy !req
1313. You asked me
why I choked out there that day.Copy !req
1314. I think I may know the answerCopy !req
1315. and I wanted your advice.Copy !req
1316. Sure.Copy !req
1317. Margot Tenenbaum?Copy !req
1318. Yeah.Copy !req
1319. Well, since when?Copy !req
1320. Since always.Copy !req
1321. Does she know?Copy !req
1322. Uh-huh.Copy !req
1323. Well, what does she feel
about that?Copy !req
1324. I think she feels confused.Copy !req
1325. Well, I can understand that.Copy !req
1326. It's probably illegal.Copy !req
1327. I don't think so.Copy !req
1328. We're not related by blood.Copy !req
1329. That's true.Copy !req
1330. Still frowned upon.Copy !req
1331. But then, what isn't
these days, right?Copy !req
1332. I don't know, maybe it works.Copy !req
1333. Why not, what the hell.Copy !req
1334. You love each other.Copy !req
1335. Nobody knows
what's going to happen, so...Copy !req
1336. You know something.Copy !req
1337. Don't listen to me.Copy !req
1338. I never understood her myself.Copy !req
1339. I never understood any of us.Copy !req
1340. I wish I could tell you
what to doCopy !req
1341. but I just can't.Copy !req
1342. That's okay.Copy !req
1343. No, it's not.Copy !req
1344. You still consider me
your father?Copy !req
1345. Sure, I do.Copy !req
1346. I wish I had more to offer
in that department.Copy !req
1347. I know you do, Pop.Copy !req
1348. I don't blame you, by the way.Copy !req
1349. Uh, she's a
great-Iooking girlCopy !req
1350. and smart as a whip.Copy !req
1351. Mordecai.Copy !req
1352. Holy shit.Copy !req
1353. You came back.Copy !req
1354. Jiminy crickets.Copy !req
1355. That damn bird must
have radar in its brain.Copy !req
1356. Is that true, Mordecai?Copy !req
1357. I-I'm not so sure
this is Mordecai.Copy !req
1358. What do you mean?Copy !req
1359. He flew right in here.Copy !req
1360. This bird has much more
white feathers on him.Copy !req
