That's right, what's your number?
01...
Just any easy number's fine.
Hey!
You can't just make up a new number.
My sister doesn't care for that stuff.
She only gets calls from the hospital anyway.
It's not like she has a secret boyfriend or anything.
Come this way please.
I'll send you the money as soon as we get to the US.
Sure, don't worry about it.
What's up with you?
The person who says not to waste electricity.
I'm just touched by a younger sister who's thinking of her older sister.
Of course, it's fine.
Where are you going?
Let's go to her now.
Oh, why would you go that far?
Just give it to her at home.
No, I have to.
Let's go.
Why?
If we go home, you'll sit worried about your sister.
Since when did you care so much for me?
I'm going home.
I can't let you be worried!
Let's go!
No, I'm not going!
Ah, really!
You could just give it to her at home.
|
Call her, ask where she is.
What if she's in the middle of an emergency procedure.
Wait here.
You're smarter than you look.
Why are you following?
What if rumors circulate that some man is looking for her at the hospital?
I understand.
I'll wait here!
Ah, that dork.
Excuse me, where can I find Dr. Seo.
I'm her sister?
Hang on a moment.
Do you know where Dr. Seo is?
Why do you bother asking?
No doubt, she'll be in the director's research office.
Please go to room 315.
Okay.
Hey, where are you...?
Aishh...
Third floor!
Since I'm here already, I'll see her for two minutes.
Oh, don't be like that!
Seriously, please don't be like this.
It's ending today.
Go away, hurry.
I'm doing anything.
Where were we?
I said, you can't do that.
It's just one word.
I'll do it.
|
I will.
Hey, you!
Why did you suddenly run.
Let's go home.
You have to go to give the phone don't you.
I already did.
She said she was very thankful.
Why?
Do you need to see my sister?
No...
I'm hungry.
Let's hurry up.
Seo Jung Kyung.
So, you think you're all that with guys, huh?
Such a fake goody goody.
That's not a normal relationship.
What is this?
So, Kang Hyun Soo is her blinded blundering love puppy?
Hey, Jung Kyung.
I went to the hospital and back and I'm disappointed that I didn't get to see your face.
You'll get sick if you over work yourself.
So, take it easy.
Kang Hyun Soo.
Poor guy.
He doesn't know anything.
I'm disappointed too.
Also, thanks.
With a h... h... heart!
Hey!
Where's Chauffeur Kang?
|
Hey, Ahjusshi!
In the auto shop, please call him 'president' okay?
Hey, Kang Sang Hoon!
Hey, watch your tongue in front of elders.
Why are you being like this?
Chauffeur Kang, Chauffeur Kang...
You!
Know your place!
Hey, now that you understand order, behave yourself from now on.
Okay?
Chauffeur Kang!
Oh, hello.
Chauffeur Kang, did you prepare what I asked for you yesterday?
Yes...
Young master, how about reconsidering doing this?
Why are you like this?
If you're going to give, give big!
What's this?
Are these tickets from a mileage reward program?
Airplane tickets?
Are you telling us to fly to the US on redeemed miles?
The seats are the same anyway.
I thought there'd be no difference.
What do you mean, 'there's no difference'.
I'm going to the US to start my life again.
Are you telling me to restart like a free-loading by sending me off on redeemed miles?
Geez... the way you handle things.
Then, I'll cancel these.
It's fine!
You miser...
|
Oh my goodness, why do you just take this?
Would you rather me had a go and just?
Oh wow, I just applied the lotion once and my hands look great.
Oh, my.
If you use your bare hands you'll damage them.
They're already rough as is.
Aigoo!
I guess you're more oblivious than I thought.
Do you see anything different?
Sorry?
You see, my son bought some hand cream for me.
You have a son too, right?
Have you received one from your son?
I don't need that since I've no need to get my hands wet.
Oh... so you haven't!
Then again, he hasn't called even with his family like this.
Why are you doing this to me?
Do you dislike me that much?
Then, do you think you'd be lovable to me?
Hey, honey.
- Honey
- What?
When are we going to the States.
She keeps picking fights with me here and there.
I'm scared.
Wha... what?
What are you scared of?
Am I a ghost?
You look more scary than I do.
As a man, I am too a little scared of you, ahjumma.
|
You!
Pack your bags.
Let's go.
To the hotel.
What money do we have for that?
Here, here.
What are these?
I ask for some plane tickets.
And, the old fool really got them for me.
So, I traded the miles for some cash.
What money does grandpa have that you stick him?
As soon as we find Sung Joon in the US, I'm going to repay him with interest even.
Yes, yes, let's go now.
Leave now?
Yes, of course.
Let's leave immediately.
Jung Kyung, it's me.
Yes.
Let's leave right now.
Mom, dad, just a moment.
Why?
The phone disconnected.
Can you talk for a moment?
No.
Is it not a good time to talk?
Yes.
Sorry, I just finished my lecture.
If you're able to go home together, call me.
I'll be waiting.
Oh, this dork!
|
Is something going on?
I almost dropped my patient's liver.
Text next time.
Text!
Oh!
Such bad timing.
I understand.
Next time, for sure... sure... sure...
Hey, there are no double letters here.
You're here.
Yeah.
You bought something for them again.
Yes.
This is meat.
Barbeque it.
Meat?
Father... you're too much.
What?
When our Hyun Soo returned after 2 years away from home, you wouldn't allow us to eat meat saying it was unhealthy.
How can the young master's family be more important than your only grandson?
They're leaving tomorrow.
Tomorrow?
Yes, it's their last meal.
Serve them well.
Yes, Sure, I'll do my best, father.
Oh, young master!
Where are you going?
Ah yes.
I was talking to a friend in the hotel business.
We'll stay there before we leave for the States.
|
And, wouldn't it be better for you if we vacate sooner than later?
Let's go.
Grandfather... going to America is good, but the fact that I won't be able to see grandfather anymore makes me sad.
Grandfather you have to stay healthy.
I'm back.
Young master, you must have dinner before you leave.
Are they going somewhere?
They're going to a hotel.
Right now?
I know, you should stay for a meal together.
Because father likes agasshi, he bought meat.
It's not like we've never eaten meat before.
Let's go.
I want to go after eating.
Who knows when I'll be able to see grandfather again.
Young Master.
Yes, please eat and then go.
Really now!
You're bothering up to the very last minute.
Our spread here isn't much.
But my daughter-in-law has put forth much of effort for you.
You should've just eaten yourselves.
I don't see much I can eat here.
Hurry, let's just eat and go.
Is that true?
Honey, what are you doing?
They're burning.
Hey, hey.
My wife prepared these for you.
Since it's your last meal here, eat up lots.
|
We might not see you again once you're gone away far across the ocean.
Look at you, so stupid.
The United States isn't the moon or something.
We're coming right back with the money when we get in touch with Sung Joon.
Hey, hey, have you even rode on a plane before?
Fine.
Say all you want to say before leaving for the states, okay?
Really?
Then can I talk about this too?
What are you talking about?
Hey, hey Jung Gil, have some of this and this.
Eat this too.
Alright, alright.
I'll eat.
Here, feed me that.
Since it's our last meal.
Let it be.
Delicious, right?
Grandfather, come join us too.
I'm fine.
Eat all.
You eat too.
Aigoo...
Eat up.
Grandfather, you have to stay healthy until we meet up again.
Sit down.
Don't worry about our father, worry about yourself.
They carry guns in the States.
Don't go spastic all over the place there.
To be honest, you're a little sad that we're leaving, right?
|
A little regretful that you should've treated us better too, huh?
Hey, where are you going?
Huh?
If someone comes, they might not know we're all out here.
Are you worried about Kyung Soo?
He's not coming.
He went to a reunion.
Really?
Unni isn't here yet.
Well, Jung Kyung will call if she can't find us.
Hey hey...
Here's some meat.
Eat up.
The smell is nauseating me.
Honey, I want to drink some coffee.
Coffee?
I'll get it for you.
Hey, Hyun Soo!
Hyun Soo!
Oh so tough.
Hey, Sang Hoon, for this beef, do you have any liquor?
No, I'll get it.
Huh?
I'm going.
So tough.
You should just go home rather than to your friend's place.
That's why I said I'd get a cab.
What if you lie to me and go somewhere else.
Are you doubting me now?
Sure, I'm a man too.
|
Man?
Oh, now that I'm looking, you do have facial hair.
Let's go somewhere to have dinner.
Meet your friend tomorrow.
I'd like to.
But we're almost here anyway.
You can drop me off over the hill.
Alright.
I'm out of breath walking over this hill.
Why did you tag along?
Such a nuisance.
You're overjoyed that I'm going to the US, right?
How did you know?
It's as freeing as getting rid of bad bowel movement.
What?
And, I'm saying this for your good.
Work on your temper when you get to the US.
You can't shout at just anyone.
And, you're in big trouble if you're sprawled drunk on the streets somewhere.
Do you even know how to speak English?
And what if someone abducts you while you're plopped sitting in the middle of the streets crying?
So, two-timing in plain sight.
What?
Are you going somewhere?
Oh, when did you get here?
Miss?
Who's that?
Who?
That car?
A car?
|
You don't need to know.
It looks like you two were going somewhere.
I'll go first then.
We're not going somewhere together.
I came to get some coffee.
And why did you come?
Anyway, we were each headed in a different direction.
But, your mother didn't tell me what kind of coffee...
Espresso?
Cafe latte?
Look at how he's asking you.
Why don't you go with him to pick which.
Here, I'll carry that for you.
It's okay.
You're sad that all your family is going to the US, right?
Yes.
But since you have the phone.
You can talk to them often.
Right?
I suppose.
That's what I'm talking about.
Live entertainment becomes boring.
But, where are you planning to stay after your family leaves?
- At the hospital?
- The hospital?
It'll be too uncomfortable there.
We'll have a room available anyway.
Why don't you stay in that room?
Unni, if you use that room, you might not come out of there alive, even your bones.
No, that's not true.
|
We're planning to rent the room out anyway.
Last time I went there, Ahjumma almost beat me to death.
Today, since we're leaving, she's so excited that she's barbecuing and all in a tizzy.
Just to think if you were the only one to remain.
Think of all the frustration you would feel.
My mother isn't like that...
She is so like that.
I know my mother better than...
No.
I'm grateful for your words, but I don't want to be an inconvenience for you any longer.
Let's go, Jung In.
Umm..
Now that I'm seeing this, you are way too friendly.
Wow... really...
At least, I still have the cell phone.
Why is it taking them so long?
Sang Hoon... just make a quick run and get some.
Huh?
Uhm... the meat.
Alright, I'll...
What's the matter with you honey.
They're our guests.
Hey, Jung Gil.
Since this is your last time, say all except the thighs.
Tell me if there's anything you need.
Sang Hoon.
Now or years ago, still has the heart for people.
It was when you were living in the back house right?
Was that in high school?
I didn't even ask him.
|
But, he mowed the lawn.
Washed the cars.
In his young mind, he probably wanted to help his father.
It wasn't that.
He needed money to go on a date with a girl.
A girl?
When did I?
It's all in the past.
It's fine.
You even went to church for that girl, huh?
You even went to church for her?
No, it's not like that.
Oh, this dude!
One who used to sling the bicycle chains around, had a Bible tucked under his arms.
You went so diligently.
I thought you were going to become a minister.
What are you talking about?
Are you drunk without having even drunk anything?
I see...
Ahjumma.
This was for laughs.
Don't take it in too much.
He went after her, but he never dated her.
After he confessed his love, he got rejected or something.
Then, he quits going to church and shaved his head to become a monk.
That was so pathetic...
I remember all the details, man.
Ahh... well it happened 40 years ago.
All 40 years ago.
Ah!
|
These mosquitoes bit my thighs.
Wow... this mosquito sucked so much of blood from my thigh.
The mouth of the mosquito became pink like lipstick.
Hey!
Seo Jung Gil!
You!
Seo Jung Gil!
You, bastard!
Dad!
Dad!
You bastard!
Why did you hit me?
Don't talk like that!
Although my mouth itched to say it,
I was not going to talk about you touching that girl's thighs.
What?
Did you touch thighs?
You!
I didn't!
Why did you make a false accusation?
You did it, didn't you!
I am not making it up!
You know what?
He even kissed her!
Don't challenge me!
You!
Bad jerk!
Be quiet!
Why do you stare at me?
Sang Hoon kissed her.
|
I know, you are too talkative to have time to kiss someone.
What?
Honey, you did a good job!
You got what you paid for.
If a guy paid to drink, he could do such behavior.
If you're only going to drink, why do you pay so much to go to a fancy bar?
Although my son is here, a guy could do such things.
The fact that you didn't tell me the truth?
It's totally understandable.
There is a courtesy between husband and wife.
This can happen.
You could tell me that kind of white lie.
Honey...
Do you have anything more to add?
If there is nothing more to say, please get out of my house immediately!
Chauffeur Kang!
Okay, I see, I will go.
Why do you hold on to a person whom you want to leave?
Alright, go away!
No one is trying to hold you onto this house.
Aigoo... don't brag about this tiny humble house.
Aigoo... such mean people.
Aigoo...
If Sung Joon was here, I wouldn't even step in this house.
Okay, I got you!
Oh, everyone is here!
Sung Joon!
- Oppa!
- Sung Joon!
Yes, oppa arrived...
|
Father, mother!
I am back!

You treated me horribly.
I won't forget about it until I die.
- Let's go to a hotel.
- You can't go.
From now on, we should change.
You said that today was the last day.
I can't kick out the guests who wants to stay in this house.
You look quite attractive.
If my sister brings a guy like you, I'd allow him to date her right away.
Cuckoo... cuckoo.
Do you like him that much?
That much?
I think your behavior was too much in front of the restaurant.
At least, Jung In and I were once married.
What happened to my sister Jung In?
Since she needs to be taken care of as she was hurt so much.
You, Lee Han Se!
Come here!

I don't care eee
I don't care eee
Oh, stop singing already!
You see, how good it is to laugh?
Now that you've calmed down, go home.
It's chilly out here.
It's so dark now.
When I ran out, it was still daylight.
I'm right here.
You don't have to be scared.
Where are you going?
Nowhere.
Then did you come looking for me, because you were worried about me?
Well...
Episode 11
It wouldn't look good if we go in together.
Why don't you go in first?
All right.
But Sang Hoon,
I didn't realize that I was your inspiration in the song Julia.
Joo Hee.
No one has called me by that name for a long time.
No, that can't be right.
There is no way.
Honey!
Honey!
This lady is asking for trouble.
Why didn't you lock the door outside?
Hey, Honey, are you asleep?
|
Why are you here?
Are you mad because I came late?
That's because Father went to bed later than usual.
Come now, it's not as if we are distantly related.
Honey, let's stop this and come home.
Sing a song for me so that I would feel better.
It's late at night and you want me to sing!
You don't want to sing?
Then forget it.
All right!
I'll sing.
In this world, I have only one love.
She is Geum Ja.
There is nothing I won't do for you.
If you ask for the stars in the night sky, I'll...
Cut it out!
Do you seriously believe that you have a great voice?
Don't make me laugh!
I can't stand to hear it.
Unni.
Are you coming back home?
No, I'll see you later.
Are you making your nightly rounds?
Yes.
I heard that you sleep in your truck.
Don't you feel cold?
I think of it as a camping.
- If it gets any colder, I'll find a room to rent.
- You could get sick.
Why don't you ask Grandpa to let you sleep in the office?
|
As it is, I'm already imposing on your generosity.
I am grateful for your kind thoughts.
You're one stubborn lady too.
By the way, how about asking President Kang to forgive Unni?
It seems like she really wants to come home.
Did Jung In come by?
Yes.
She was standing here just now.
Where on earth did she go?
Hey, Snivel!
What are you doing over there?
Nothing much.
Ahjumma wanted me to go home and get some chili paste.
Don't lie.
You left the restaurant early evening.
Are you a wandering dog?
It's late at night and you're still running around.
You don't even answer your phone.
What were you doing?
Why are you getting so mad?
I'm worried about my mom.
Tsk, no wonder!
Where did you go?
Since you're not talking, are you in some kind of trouble again?
No, I didn't feel like working.
That's why I was walking around.
Didn't I ask you to come home?
I even bought the dried squid for you.
You didn't even buy it for me.
Wasn't it for Ahjumma?
|
If I said it was for you, my mom would get jealous.
Anyway, the dried squid ended up at your mom.
So the arrangement to persuade your mom to return home is cancelled.
- I'll think of other conditions, so just wait.
- You brat!
I'm trying to get you home and you want to discuss conditions with me!
There's no such thing as a free meal in this world.
Since I started working, I finally understand.
I must have served up 100 bowls of beef rib soup today.
I see the world in a different light now.
You've only worked for one day, and you're in this regret state.
What, look at my muscles now.
Look, look.
Okay.
I'll walk you home.
Let's go.
Really?
You're going to walk me back?
I'm afraid you'll run off to someplace else.
It's so dark now.
We should hurry.
Please help me carry this.
No.
Please!
- Why do I have to help you?
- I'm freezing to death.
Help me please!
There must be some loan documents somewhere.
Where did he put it?
Chauffer Kang, this is President Seo.
|
The house I bought for you must be comfortable.
Chauffer Kang, where are the loan documents?
Go on in.
Remember to lock the doors.
Are you leaving like this?
Then?
Since you're here, let's get a drink together.
This bratty kid!
From now on quit drinking.
You don't even know how bad my mood is.
All right.
Leave.
What?
How do you feel?
Are you hungry?
Want me to buy you a snack?
Tell me.
Apart from alcohol, I'll get you anything.
Really.
You'll listen to what I have to say?
But you have to come home tomorrow.
Okay.
Oppa won't lie to me.
I'll trust you and listen to you.
What is it?
Then lend me a hundred million won.
What?
A hundred million!
Yeah.
Isn't it true that Oppa is very talented?
|
Help me think of a way to come up with the money.
I'll definitely pay you back.
Seriously!
You were kicked out because of money.
When are you going to wake up?
It's not even a hundred or even a thousand but a hundred million!
- Didn't you say you'd listen to me?
- Yes, but there must be a limit!
Don't talk nonsense anymore.
Persuade my mother to come home tomorrow.
Go in quickly.
Go in quickly.
I'm not going home.
You have Jung Kyung you don't need me.
What?
You...
Ahjumma, are you asleep?
If you want to settle things cleanly...
Return the wedding ring.
Are you here alone?
Where did you go?
Jung In was in front of the house.
I took her back to the restaurant.
How come you're not asleep yet?
You must be tired after your rounds at the hospital.
I had to think over some stuff.
I apologize that Jung In is such a bother.
It's not a problem.
I wanted to send her back.
I was worried that she'll get into trouble again.
|
If you can't sleep, I'll lend you a book.
No, you really won't be able to sleep if I lend you a book.
You can lend me a book some other time.
I should be able to sleep now.
That's good.
Goodnight.
Is there absolutely no leftover change in this house at all?
What are you doing?
Oh, I wanted to borrow your cell phone.
- I was worried about Jung In.
- There is no need to worry.
She just went back to the restaurant.
You seem to know about Jung In quite well.
What?
Nothing.
I was thinking of having a beer before I sleep.
Can you lend me a few thousand won?
I'll pay you back once I get my pay.
Drinking alcohol is unhealthy.
Exercise is better for you.
I've been working all day.
I feel like my arm is about to break.
What's the matter?
You're not willing to lend me money.
Hey you.
Come over and taste this for me.
I have no money.
This is free.
Just try this.
Here.
|
I'm very picky.
Give it to me.
Is it not tasty?
I think it's lacking something.
Don't do anything.
I'll be back soon.
Oh my goodness!
What a mess!
This is bellflower soup.
It's not really medicine.
Don't leave a drop behind.
Just drink it in one go.
It's like drinking ginseng tea.
You will gain some more energy.
Hate is also a feeling.
When you asked me to pay for the kimbap, I no longer wanted to see your face.
But you shouldn't do this.
What?
What kind of money can you get by selling this?
If you want to earn more money, you need to sell alcohol.
Yes, but if I sell alcohol, I have to deal with drunk customers.
I don't like it.
You don't have to worry.
If there is trouble, Oppa will deal with them for you.
What are you?
An Ahjussi.
Not Ahjussi, it's Oppa.
Oppa here was a sportsman.
Did you see that?
I'm a chocolate board.
|
When I see those drunks, I'll go pa, pa, pa!
What sport did you play?
Golf.
I played professional golf when I was in America.
Wow, how did you end up washing cars here?
Since you are a pro, you can make good money by giving private lessons.
For someone so young, all you think about is money.
I guess you don't understand Oppa well.
I prefer my freedom to money.
I'll have to deal with whiny, complaining students all day long.
I refuse to do that.
You understand.
That's true.
But I think it's a waste of your talent.
Ji Soo, in this world, money is not everything.
Right now, Oppa here has hit rock bottom.
This experience is something even money cannot buy.
Oh, you're drunk.
No more soju for you.
It's okay.
This small amount of soju doesn't affect me at all.
Do you want to bet?
But why are you alone?
Could it be that you ran away from home?
No.
I was in an orphanage when I was young.
When I came of age, I decided to leave.
Gosh!
Did your mom and dad give you up?
- God will definitely punish them.
|
- Don't say such things.
Frankly speaking, I did bear a grudge against them.
I don't anymore.
Ever since I had to earn my own money,
I realized how difficult it is to survive in this world.
How much difficulties they must have faced.
I think they're quite pitiful.
You have certainly matured early.
Don't worry.
You have Oppa to protect you.
Even if you're lonely, you mustn't go astray.
Ahem, Ahjussi...
It's not Ahjussi but Oppa.
Say Oppa.
Oppa!
Let me go.
So cute, so cute, so cute!
Ji Soo
Ahjussi!
Ahjussi!
Wake up!
Grandpa is awake.
Ahjussi!
Oh, oh!
How did I end up here?
Shhh!
Since no one has seen you yet, you better leave quickly.
All right.
Wait!
Wait!
|
It's President Kang!
President Kang!
Did you sleep well last night?
- Oh, did you just get up?
- Yes.
What about your business during the breakfast hour?
President, I would like to ask you something.
Really?
I wonder if it's because the weather is getting cold that my kimbap business is not going so well.
I was thinking of making something different.
What are you planning to change to?
Dukbokki or udon noodles.
It's a waste to have my truck idling here.
Perhaps, President Kang, you can repair my truck so that it'll allow me to sell food nearby.
Are there any other moving food stalls selling this type of food?
Why don't you check around?
Yes.
I checked.
There are some food stalls but not those that move around.
Make sure you look into it thoroughly.
It's not easy running a food business.
Yes.
Speaking of which, my daughter-in-law is a very good cook.
What?
Huh?
Nothing.
Grandfather, you're up early.
- It must be because Hyun Soo's mother is not here.
- Are you a child?
Do you still need someone to wake you up?
|
After breakfast, fix that car first.
Did you sleep well?
Aigoo, it's work out time, but what kind of get up do you have on?
Go in and change your clothes.
I don't have the appropriate clothes for exercise.
Give her a set of Hyun Soo's mother's.
Goodness!
How can I possibly wear that?
As for that long hair of yours, you should cut it.
Or else pull it back.
- My hair is my special feature.
- Silence!
It's so unsanitary if your hair happens to fall into the food.
Pull your hair back immediately!
Here, take this.
We're missing someone.
I didn't see him when I woke up.
One, two, one, two, one, two
- Good morning everybody!
- Where did you go?
I got up a little early and ran round the block.
Oh, the morning air is invigorating.
Sung Joon, what happened to your face?
What's wrong with my face?
Ouch!
I wish everyone a good workout.
Since you're not seriously injured, let's exercise.
- It's so cold.
- Ebbi, get ready.
Ready, start!
|
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
What a sly fox!
I shouldn't have left.
Ahjumma!
Where did Ahjumma go?
- She has left already.
- What?
Here.
No matter what, how could she have left by herself?
Why am I aching all over?
Ah, I can't remember anything!
Where is Sung Joon?
He said he's not feeling well.
It could be that he got up too early, so his body is not used to it.
Mom.
- Here, give it to me.
- Thank you.
Didn't I say it's okay?
Oh, it looks good on you.
Now I'm even being told what to wear.
Why waste money to buy clothes?
This is fine.
If you had worn it earlier, it would've been great.
Honey.
Yes.
Once you're better off, you can wear whatever you want.
This type of clothes suit you fine.
No more complaints
Mom.
|
Honey, why are you here?
Am I not supposed to be here?
Hello.
Come in quickly.
It was so tiring all by myself.
Don't touch my things.
Who gave you permission to enter this house?
Father, receive my bow first.
I came back because I have repented my ways.
- Please forgive me, Father.
- What did you repent?
Father asked me to leave, so I left.
My place is by Father's side.
Hyun Soo's place is by my side.
Hyun Soo's father's place is also by my side.
I will no longer let anyone take over my place.
I, Baek Geum Ja, will definitely protect this place.
That is how you reproach yourself?
Yes.
I will then assume that Father has forgiven me.
I will now go in and get my chores done diligently.
Stop right there.
You come back from running away and now you're back early in the morning, confusing all of us.
Do you really think all is well now?
Father, please wait a moment.
Let me go to the bathroom first.
Chun Hyang went to jail because she disobeyed Mayor Byeon's decree.
I have disobeyed Father's will, so I will wear this as my punishment.
You're really something!
30 years!
|
For 30 years, you've been jabbering.
I think you've finally learned your lesson.
All right, start by wearing these clothes and do your chores.
Let's eat.
Yes, Father.
Nice going, mom.
- Isn't it great to have mom back?
- Of course.
It's good to have you back.
Of course, I belong here.
Ahjumma, you certainly took care of him.
Honey, what about me?
I should talk to him too.
Eat your breakfast quickly and get to work.
Yes, yes.
Hyun Soo, give me some more rice.
You go ahead first.
Huh?
I would like to talk to Jung In.
Hey!
Hey!
How could you just leave like this?
Jung In.
Snivel.
Since you played truant yesterday, you should've receive only half of your pay but I'll let it go and give you the full amount.
How are you?
Let's get going.
Hey, go home, all right?
But who is this?
She is Jung In's eldest sister.
|
This is Grandpa's friend.
How are you?
Yes, yes.
I heard there's a doctor in the Seo family.
You're pretty too.
Go ahead.
You two make such a great couple.
The both of you look good together.
I hope Grandfather loses all his hair very soon.
This girl!
Hey, don't ever come back.
I'm back!
Why are you wearing someone else's clothes?
I'm sad too.
We are both women.
You shouldn't be like this.
Who should be saying this?
I have compassion for you because I'm a woman too.
But you stabbed me in the back.
Omo, did you put on makeup?
Yes, I did.
Why?
I can't put on make-up?
Ahjumma!
Ahjumma!
You left without a word.
How could you betray me like this?
Do you know how distraught I was this morning?
It's like being given ice cream and then being abandoned by my mother.
Jung In, your mother is right here.
|
Why?
What kind of mother are you?
You don't even know what happened to me.
You don't even know how lousy I feel.
Well, I was busy because I had housework to do.
That should be the case.
Although I don't know what you did.
Why are you treating me like this?
I'll just stop talking.
I had my reasons.
It's good that you're back now.
So go in and wash up.
Who gave you permission to come back?
Get out!
No.
You've already forgiven Ahjumma.
Why am I the only one who has to leave?
Your daughter-in-law is family, so you forgive her.
I'm an outsider, so you can't forgive me.
Then you're wrong.
I have never thought of Grandpa as an outsider.
What?
Now that we're living together, we are considered a family.
Didn't Grandpa say so himself?
Therefore, don't show favoritism.
Even if you were an elder, if you were wrong, I wouldn't obey you.
Emmi, step forward.
Me?
Open your eyes and take a look.
I won't forgive my daughter-in-law for no reason.
|
While she was thinking about the wrong she have done, she'll continue wearing those clothes.
Can't you see?
If you did something wrong, you must think about it and realize why you are wrong.
Why are you screaming at people?
I did think about my wrongdoing.
To earn these money, I washed the dishes and wiped the tables.
This is thinking over my wrongdoing.
Isn't it?
Of course not.
It is not important to understand how to earn money.
It is more important to learn how to spend money.
Alright.
If you want to continue living in this house, for half a month, when you are using the restroom, eating, or sleeping, you will have to pay me.
What?
Don't you like spending money?
I will make it so you can spend a lot of money.
Emmi, you will be responsible to collect the money from her.
Father, I am very busy too.
How can I be the one pursing her to pay?
Don't you two like working together?
You must have the money by nighttime.
Let's see how you perform.
This is ridiculous.
Fine.
Pay.
I will pay.
Wait.
Wait a moment.
You have to pay for the room rent.
Since so much people use it together, pay 6000 won per day.
|
I will give you 10,000 won.
Give me my 4000 won change.
I don't have change on me.
To earn 4000 won, how much bowls of sparerib soup would I have to carry?
Hurry up and give me my money.
Lawyer Kim, don't be like this.
Let's meet face to face.
Alright, alright.
We will meet there.
There.
Thank you for your call.
President, can I get an advance?
An advance?
Sung Joon is always suffering from coughing and I want to buy him some medicine.
I don't know what's wrong with the child.
Jung In is back.
Aren't you going to go see her?
President probably already taught her a lesson.
It was me who spoiled her in the past.
Even though I haven't been here for long, but from President, it looks like I have learned a lot of things.
Why are you looking at me like that?
Why do you make me feel so scared when you actually say something that is human-like?
Gosh.
Why are you so sensitive?
Why can't you believe what people say?
Then, about the advance...
Don't look down on dukbokki.
Lately, there has been so much mouth to feed and they are picky too.
Here, try it.
It tastes so good.
|
But how do you make this chili sauce?
That isn't something you can learn easily.
I will just take some ingredient fees from you.
Take some to use.
Because you are serious about living your life, I will specially treat you better.
Thank you very much.
But my Father, other than saying my cooking taste good, did he say anything else about me?
He didn't say much of anything else, but it felt like he missed you.
When Ahjumma is not here, he looks uneasy.
That's true.
Without me, can the days at home go by normally?
You need to be an expert to make home comfortable.
Father couldn't take it anymore.
That temper he had, and yet he forgave me once I came back.
I am also very glad that you are back, Ahjumma.
And you even help me so much.
If you have any questions, feel free to come ask me.
- Do you understand?
- Yes.
- I am going to leave now.
- Alright.
- Sell a lot.
- Okay.
That girl's face is sure shameless.
When did you meet her?
She even came and got seasoning from you.
How can the word shameless be coming out of your mouth?
Also, we harvested these daikon a long time ago, and yet you still have so much not done?
The sun is setting soon.
The sun.
|
I was afraid my hand might be tainted with green.
So I didn't dare to work on them that fast.
These are not touch-me-not flowers.
Hurry up and finish this up.
Then scrub the floor.
I need to wash the blankets.
You sure have a lot of excuses.
Where is my wife?
Are you by yourself?
I don't know.
She left me working by myself and went to sleep.
I even have to scrub the floor after this.
How can she be like that?
- Honey.
- What's wrong?
Honey, how can you be like this?
You are both women, so you should two help each other.
Jung Gil's wife is crying outside.
Don't you pity for her?
How can you still sleep knowing that?
What?
Why are you so work up that, that woman is crying?
No, that's not it.
I... that...
Right now, your wife is wearing this clothes to do chores and is feeling very uncomfortable.
Can't you see me with your eyes?
I understand.
Don't be so loud.
Pity what?
Pity.
|
Who is more pitiful?
I did 30 years of house work.
What are you trying to say?
I understand.
I understand.
Forget what I have said.
I understand.
Really.
Will it suddenly blow up when the car is running?
Something like that will not happen.
Hey!
Come over here.
Come over.
What are you doing?
What did you do to me last night?
What do you mean what I did?
Last night, before I slept,
I was walking outside and I saw you unconscious in the yard.
Because I was worried about you, I pulled you into the car.
I didn't mean any harm.
Then why does my whole body hurt so much?
Did you try to do something to a drunk person?
- And once I object to it...
- Ahjussi.
Are you not sober yet?
You shouldn't drink so much.
But why do you need your car fixed?
Are you going somewhere?
Didn't I tell you yesterday that I was going to make my own bar truck?
A bar truck?
|
That means you are selling alcohol, right?
It will go with beer.
A few shots.
Like a side dish.
One or two glasses only.
For a young woman, you sure have no fear.
What kind of a woman sells alcohol?
Ahjussi, wasn't it you yesterday that advised me to sell alcohol if I want to earn money?
Me?
Geez, do you listen to a drunk man's advice?
You can't sell alcohol.
But I already bought some.
Why are you so quick with matters like this?
You can't sell alcohol.
One glass turns to a second glass.
The two glasses turn into two bottles.
That's alcohol.
If anything happens to you, I can't take responsibility for it.
Do you understand?
Go.
Okay.
What are you doing?
Hyung, what are you doing?
- Do you really want to bleed?
- What?
I can only warn you this much.
There is poison on the thorn of a rose.
Poison.
What are you saying?
Hey!
|
Don't worry about me.
Take care of yourself little girl.
Don't starve yourself just to look skinny.
Dad likes chubby girls.
Yeah.
Seo Jung Kyung, did you know?
Other people may not know, but I support your love.
If it is a simpler love, it would be even better.
But if it is you, you would definitely protect that love till the end.
Don't miss classes.
Alright.
- After going home, do you feel better?
- Yes.
Please tell me Yeon Jae's phone number.
What?
Since she doesn't want to meet me, I will try to get closer to her slowly by voice.
Why all of a sudden?
After seeing me put in so much effort,
Director must feel bad and would put in more effort too.
Hurry.
She isn't that easy to talk to.
Yeon Jae?
It's me.
Doctor Seo.
It is noon, right?
What did you eat?
Hello?
Hey.
One at a time.
Try it slowly.
|
Even if we argue, we must try to bond.
If I don't do anything, it won't solve the problem.
Did something happen at home?
Why did you suddenly turn so confrontational?
After talking with Kang Hyun Soo, I gained some strength.
Kang Hyun Soo?
Evil woman.
Disappear.
This girl is really...
At least Yeon Jae replies faster than you, Director.
So, that's good.
Did you know that my birthday is coming up?
If Director tries hard enough, then I can eat a meal with Yeon Jae that day.
Right now, the shock raid BEAT assembled, did not pass the requirements.
Considering the battles in market, we must change this.
Are we going on a break again?
This is all to save the project.
If you look at this, ...edge spider and long cradle.
These two must fit together nicely.
If you look at the simulation, adjusting these two till they fit will make this car the one of safest cars in the world.
Did you consider the extra expenses?
Changing one part may cost several hundred million won.
Mr. Kang Hyun Soo, are you thinking that this is a car repair shop?
It doesn't need to be fixed.
Continue with the plan.
I can't do that.
The extra expenses aren't that high.
If we can solve this problem, the car would be competitive.
Self-confidence is good.
But what if a problem occurs?
|
Would Mr. Kang Hyun Soo take responsibility for it?
Think of it as a future investment for Global Motors.
You can't buy with cash the trust of the consumers.
Trust, faith.
Aren't these just words without meanings that males use when they are pursing females?
Those words don't work with me here.
Just continue with the plan.
I didn't come here to listen to instructions.
I will stop the project while waiting for your answer.
I hope you can fully reconsider, before making your decision.
Hey.
Clean up.
Immediately find another person to replace Kang Hyun Soo as the project leader.
As for the plan, continue with it.
Sunbae.
Sunbae.
Director Lee Han Se said he's changing the project leader.
So you should be careful.
If sunbae is not there anymore, I don't have any reasons to stay either.
Will you take us with you?
I will see well you two perform
What if the professor say something about this?
What do we do?
Because of this matter, what if they won't let me lecture anymore?
What should I do?
What should we do?
So why did you do that?
Go in first.
I will come soon.
Hey.
|
Because I was curious, I was going to give you a call.
Are you home yet?
Geez, it's as if you care about me.
Judging by your tone, it sounds like Grandpa yelled at you.
Are you that happy that I got yelled at?
Yes.
Because of you, my mother was also punished.
To be honest, you don't care about me.
You were just worried about your mom, that's why you wanted to call, right?
Well... for both reasons.
Only if there is peace in home that I don't worry.
Are you hurt somewhere?
Maybe an irritable bowel syndrome from all the stress.
My stomach hurts.
Then go get it checked at the hospital.
Go to Jung Kyung's hospital for an examination.
Do you think I can just go there?
Is Jung Kyung, the only doctor around here?
For a sick person, your voice is sure loud.
Stop annoying me.
I am dying from the pain.
Hurry up and give me your password for the computer.
You're in my room?
I want to look up something.
Before Ahjumma comes in here, hurry up and tell me.
1, 1.
Okay. 1, 1.
2.
2.
Is the next number 9?
|
What?
1129.
Seo Jung Kyung's birthday is your password, right?
Because I didn't have time, I didn't change it yet.
That's good.
Where is your ATM card?
The ATM card's password must be 1129 too.
I don't have money right now, so where is it, where is it?
Don't you dare to search my desk drawers.
Oh.
Desk drawers?
I got it.
Hey!
Hey, hey, hey.
Hello.
Hey...
After all that, you still can't forget her?
How to make one million won in one night?
What are these?
Why are you coming up from there again?
- Restroom.
I need to go to the restroom.
- Wait a moment.
Wait a moment.
Then you will have to pay me.
It's an emergency, I really need to go.
From what I can see, it must be a big one.
500.
Give me 500 won.
Do you really have to be like this?
|
I am so uncomfortable in these clothes, that I want to die.
Ah!
My stomach hurt so much.
Right now my guts want to shrink.
Do you understand how I feel?
I know.
Here.
It's coming out.
I am certain.
How come you cannot find it?
You know that you can't just depend on the law.
You need evidence.
So, everything that I wanted you to bring, did you bring them?
Because you asked, I am giving it to you.
Don't you think this is kind of bad after all the hospitality he offered you?
It's not like I don't know Chauffeur Kang.
I know.
I know.
Once I find the evidences, I will contact you.
You can leave now.
Don't contact me.
Even if you found your money back, Chairman Seo, God will punish you.
No...
If I find my money back, why would God punish me?
Gosh, Lawyer Kim.
I will drink slowly.
Sung Joon.
This is too heavy for mom.
Help me.
My whole body is aching too.
|
Mom, do it yourself.
You are so selfish.
Mom washed all the clothes by herself too.
What kind of an elder son are you?
Hurry up and go help your mom.
Hurry.
Hurry.
I know.
Mom really is...
Here.
My shoulders hurt.
It's not even very heavy.
It hurts, mom.
It obviously looks like something is up.
Kim Ji Soo.
Why me?
Just help me.
No matter what, it was because I was drinking with you.
Is it that hard?
Just help me put some on.
Hurry up.
Where?
Here?
Be gentler.
Where else?
Here?
How can a woman be so rough?
Be gentler.
Even though I didn't tell you, you are quite accurate at where I am hurting.
I did business and I occasionally got into fights.
|
If you got hit before, you would know where it hurts.
You got hit?
What punk would hit a woman?
It's just pushing around here and there.
It's nothing.
Go rest.
Wait.
Can you?
Can you reconsider?
If you want to sell alcohol, you will be confronted with a lot of problems.
I have to eat and live too.
Geez.
What?
Hit someone?
Isn't your fist very good?
Every time I think about Chairman Kim, that bastard, I get even more angrier.
Forget it, forget it.
What time is it?
I don't do those things.
Don't hold a grudge.
Just forget it.
Forget it.
Then do you have to pay a lot of fees to hit people?
Depends on how much the injured person ask for, for the settlement of the problem.
Whoa!
Then you must have wasted 3-4 years of your father's salary.
It wasn't just 3-4 years of salaries.
Before I met Hyun Soo's mom I have been causing trouble, so that should be at least 7-8 years of my father's salaries.
If I continued like that,
I could have bought a house like this with all those money I wasted.
|
Okay.
Keep working on your abs.
Don't cause trouble.
Not only my father but my wife also are not in a good mood.
You...
Why are you so afraid of your wife?
Gosh, your life is so pathetic.
Because you were afraid of your wife, you never had an affair before, right?
- What?
- But then again, to have an affair you must have money and what do you have?
Do you need only money to have an affair?
It almost sounds like you have a hidden woman somewhere.
Geez, you don't even have money and because you are afraid of your wife you don't sleep elsewhere other than home.
Is she your pen pal?
You have time to make fun of me, you should use that time to treat your wife better.
I already treat her quite well, how much does she need.
Bastard.
We are sure ill-fated.
I feel much more comfortable when we don't see each other face to face.
Punk, just you wait.
Days we won't see each other will arrive soon.
I knew it would be like this.
What a waste of electricity.
Kiss Employment.
100,000 won for one time.
This child, really...
Don't think about earning 100 million won so easily.
Think about working hard and saving a few won instead of spending it all.
Saving a few won?
Then I will finished paying my debt in 100 years.
|
What do you want again?
Don't you miss me?
I do.
If you are by my side right now,
I would certainly give you a big slap in the face.
That's why I can't go see other women.
It's because you are so attractive, Seo Jung In.
Stop joking around.
I am hanging up.
Is Kang Hyun Soo still okay?
What?
Who?
Today in the company, I taught him a lesson.
You should go comfort him.
What?
Why?
That punk doesn't know who is the boss.
I was worried enough that he was living with you, I want to fire him.
Scum.
You dare.
You, being like this makes me want to fire him even more.
Fine.
Fire him.
You can even fire a woman you married, why can't you fire a little employee like him?
You still have a bunch of grudges against me.
I know.
I will be nicer to you in the future.
Hurry up and return to my side, do you understand?
Secretary Kim?
Yes.
|
I am hanging up now.
What?
You.
You are planning to change the researcher we found for the new car project.
Yeah.
That punk doesn't listen to authority.
I will deal with it, don't worry.
What do you know?
Dad is very angry right now.
Why?
That punk wants to raise the development expenses of the car.
Is money the problem?
Your dad would never tolerate a car that is lacking.
The car we are developing right now, is to be the mascot of Global Motors.
Why are you changing the project leader?
Without that punk we can't make the car anymore?
I will make one that is even better, is that okay?
Your older brother submitted that project leader's revision report to your father.
Your father looked very happy and wants to replace your plan with the project leader's
- What?
- There's no more time.
Hurry up and go to your father's place.
You will complete the new car with the revisions the project leader submitted.
Immediately!
I wonder if she understood what I meant.
Oppa.
Hey, you.
Your clothes... what happened?
What... what... what are you trying to do?
Hey wait.
|
Don't.
100,000 won.
Just give me 100,000 won.
I can't.
I can't.
Dongsaeng.
What's wrong with you.
No... nothing.
Then I have to go to a grand opening ceremony.
Do you have 1000 won for me to borrow?
What?
I will back you all back when I get my salary.
Don't mention money again, please.
Gosh!
Just because he has money, doesn't mean he can get mad like that.
Do you only want this kind?
Yes.
My wife only like sesame bread.
That's right.
What are you doing?
Open the lid.
Yes.
Oh my!
What should I do?
Geez, this woman... how can you throw a thing like that toward me?
Now this expensive clothing is stained with soup.
Gosh.
Geez.
And she didn't even ask if I got burned or not.
Um, here...
|
Where is my wife?
Why do I deserve a punishment like this?
Buying clothes like this, I keep getting punished.
What should I do?
This stain better not stay.
After my wife was kicked out, she must have been a bit more sensitive.
Please forgive her, Joo Hee.
I can only do that, what else can I do about it?
What is that?
This, this...
Sounds like is going pretty well.
I'll get it.
Sock!
Something is happening with my mouth!
What?
Nina!
Sock, Sock, hey Sock...
Hell spawn, the blood of the martyrs compels it!
In the name of God!
Ah!
Who are you?
Menudo.
Benjamin, get him out of here!
No, no, no!
Ben, Nina loves you so much, and she will love you forever!
Hey guys I think is gone!
Well, how do you feel?
I feel good.
I think you should worry about him.
I think that the demon jumped.
|
Oh so now it resides in this poor men, does it?
If you want to dance demon, you'll dance with me.
Sorry Sock...
I need your opinion Sammy.
On my lapel which you think makes my eyes pop more?
Carnation or Lily?
I know ... both are right
That is the beauty of wearing a dark suit and having this face.
Go away.
Oh, why the big frown?
I thought you'd be on cloud nine.
- Why would you think that?
- You and me, quarters rematch.
Is all set up.
You didn't know?
What are you talking about?
Someone made it worth my while.
So the contest is back on.
- Someone?
Who?
- Your girl.
Andi.
She put up her own soul as collateral.
She must be really into you.
You are a lucky guy.
Tell me you didn't do it.
Yeah, I-I kinda did.
Andi... what were you thinking?
I was thinking that I want you out of your deal.
This is the only way to do it.
|
No you have to stop it.
You have to go back to the devil and tell him that you changed your mind.
No.
No, I want to do it.
I need to do this.
I believe in you.
And I believe that you can beat him.
And I am tired of being alone.
- Aren't you?
- Is too much to risk.
Well is my risk to take.
We are going to beat the devil, Sam!
I know it.
Come on.
- You're nervous?
- Yeah.
Are you?
Oh yeah.
This is for the lady's file.
Is not every day that I get to win such a beautiful trophy
Yeah, we'll see about that
I'm already liking the woman's touch.
Very nice Andi, well it spruces the place up
Sam, get this over with.
Yeah, Sammy.
Let's do get this over with.
There is something else Andi brought to the party.
This time I think you should go first.
Now I know you are the brains of this operation.
Your turn.
|
Sam, you just have to get two in.
You got this.
I am a bad looser.
All right?
Make you sure, if you eventually win this thing don't expect any hugs or grab ass.
There are shot glasses in the housewere.
I will be right back.
Hey buddy.
Steve, hey.
What are you doing here.
I heard some bonehead screwed up an ancient translation.
Guilty.
Ah, don't worry about it man.
Do you have any idea what a Mensch you are?
Thanks, listen I gotta go.
I am about to get out my deal with the devil.
I know.
I heard.
And let me just say how truly, deeply sorry I am.
Sorry for what?
Sam, I'm so sorry.
Why?
Is for the best.
That's all I know.
Oh, my God!
Sam, what happened?
- Is broken.
- What?
!
- How?
|
- Can't talk about it right now.
Hey, Sammy, come on, if you want to forfeit,
All you have to do, is say so.
No.
No forfeit.
Oh, man.
That's pathetic, come on.
Just stop right now.
Please.
For your own sake.
I still have one good hand.
You are not leftie, eh?
Shut up.
Oh, this is hard to watch.
So...
Let's just take a survey who had the worst week
I lost my soul to the devil.
Top that.
An angel broke my hand is six places.
which evidently means, heaven hates me.
and the devil still owns my soul.
Ok, let's recap for Sock.
I got frog roofied.
My mouth is like sand.
My mind is melting.
I tasted music and it tasted like garbage.
I had a pretty good week.
What?
Sock saved my girlfriend from going back to hell.
- Yeah.
|
- Thank you.
I really hate your grandmother.
- I know.
- Yeah.
Let me get fruit on my pancakes.
- Sure.
- Whipped cream, maybe.
Sure.
Ahhh so..
I am really sorry that your soul got damned for eternity
That's... that's a bummer.
- Let's...
Come here.
- Thanks Sock.
I'm sorry.
Thank you, Ben.
Shotgun.
Look Andi I want you to know I feel terrible about what happened.
You put yourself on the line, put your soul on the line.
And I let you down.
I don't expect you to forgive me.
I... just .... only hope that...
- What was that about?
- The devil owns my soul,
But I don't... feel any different, you know?
And I still love you more than I ever did.
And as bad as things seem...
I'm... really happy.
- Is that weird?
- Yes, completely.
|
We can still try to get out of our deals with the devil.
And we can try to change our fates
You did it once before, and we can try again.
You know if nothing else then... we have time together.
Then I am happy too.
Then I am happy too.
Steve, what do you want?
I thought I heard you over say you are happy.
I figured it would be a good time to poke in.
Get out!
Look, I'm not exactly pleased
With the way things turned out either, but I just...
Hey, Ow!
Andi, are you throwing rocks at me?
Yes, I am trying to break your hand
Hey, Sam, would you please tell her to quit it.
Ow!
Would you let me explain?
!
Fine, fine, explain.
What is your explanation?
I'm acting from.. on orders from upstairs.
I don't know exactly why they had me do the things that they had me do.
Guys!
Stop!
Stop!
You've every right to be upset.
But throwing rocks is never constructive.
Enough!
Yeah I got my wings earlier today.
|
I wanted it to be a surprise.
You got your wings because you broke my hand?
That's great.
Congratulations.
Is because of how I helped you.
Helped?
The devil owns both of our souls.
Heaven works in mysterious ways, Andi.
- You got to believe.
- Believe what?
That you are not alone.
Believe me, Leucò
I didn't understand right away.
Sometimes I get the formula wrong, sometimes there's amnesia.
And yet I'd touched him.
The truth is I'd been waiting so long for him I wasn't thinking about it anymore.
The moment I understood everything
-he'd jumped up and grabbed his sword-
I almost smiled, I felt so happy and at the same time disappointed.
I even thought I might at least escape fate.
"After all he's Odysseus," I thought,
"someone who wants to go home."
I thought of putting him in a boat right away.
Dear Leucò.
He was waving that sword-silly and brave like only a human can be-
and I had to smile and look him in the eye as I do with them, and then to look surprised and draw back.
I felt like a girl,
like when we were children and were told what we'd do when grown up
and we laughed.
|
It all happened like a dance.
He took me by the wrists, raised his voice, I blushed
-but I was pale, Leucò-
I clasped his knees and began my lines:
"Who are you?
What land gave birth to you...?"
Poor fellow, I thought, he doesn't know what he's in for.
He was tall, curly haired, handsome,
Leucò.
What a stupendous pig he'd have made, or a wolf.
But all this you told him, in the year he spent with you?
O child, you don't talk
about the things of destiny with a human.
They think they've said everything when they call it the iron chain, the final decree.
They call us the fatal ladies, you know.
They don't know how to smile.
Yes.
Some can laugh in face of destiny, can laugh afterward, but at the time they have to be serious or they die.
They don't know how
to joke about divine things, and listen to themselves reciting lines like us.
Their life is so short, they can't bear to do things already done or known about.
Even he, Odysseus the courageous, if I said one word about this, he'd stop listening to me and would think of Penelope.
What a bore.
Yes but you see, I understand him.
With Penelope he didn't have to smile, with her everyything, even the daily meal, was serious and unrehearsed
-they might have been preparing themselves for death.
You don't know how much death attracts them.
Yes, to die is a destiny per them, a repetition, something known,
but they fool themselves into thinking it changes something.
Why then didn't he want to become a pig?
|
Ah, Leucò, he didn't want even to become a god,
and you know how much Calypso begged him to, that idiot.
Odysseus was like that, neither pig nor god, just a man,
extremely intelligent, and brave in face of destiny.
Tell me, dear, did you enjoy yourself a lot with him?
One thing, Leucò.
None of us gods has ever wanted to become mortal none has ever desired it.
Yet this might be the novelty
that would break the chain.
Would you like to?
What talk, Leucò...
Odysseus didn't understand why I smiled.
He didn't understand often even that I was smiling.
Once I thought I'd explained to him why a beast is closer to us immortals than an intelligent and brave man.
The beast that eats, that mounts and doesn't have memory.
He answered me that at home awaited him a dog, a poor dog that maybe was dead,
and he told me its name.
Imagine, Leucò, that dog had a name.
Also to us they give a name, those humans.
Many names gave me Odysseus while in my bed.
Each time there was a name.
At first it was like the noise of a beast of a pig or wolf,
but he himself bit by bit realised they were syllables of a single word.
He called me by names of all the gods, of our sisters, names of the mother, of the things of life.
It was like a struggle with me, with fate.
He wanted to name me, to hold me to make me mortal.
He wanted to break something.
Intelligence and courage he put into it
- he had that - but he never knew how to smile.
He never knew what the smile of the gods is - of us who know destiny.
|
No human understands us or the beasts.
I've seen them, your humans.
Turned into wolves or pigs, they howl still like completely human.
It's torture.
In their intelligence they're quite crude.
You've played a lot with them?
I enjoy myself with them, Leucò.
I enjoy them as I can.
It wasn't given to me to have a god in my bed,
and of men only Odysseus.
All the others I touch become beasts and go crazy, and chase after me like beasts.
I take them, Leucò - their frenzy is no better or worse than a god's love.
I mustn't even smile!
I feel them get on top of me and then run off to their lairs.
I don't lower my eyes.
-And Odysseus...
-I don't ask myself who they are...
Want to know who Odysseus was?
Tell me, Circe.
One evening he described his arrival at
Aeaea, his companions' fear, the sentries posted by the ships.
He told me all night they listened to the roaring and snarling,
lying in their cloaks on the sea shore.
And then when day came, they saw beyond the wood rise a spiral of smoke,
and they shouted for joy, recognising their country and houses.
These things he told me smiling
-the way humans smile- seated beside me in front of the fire.
He said he wanted to forget who he was and where he was
and that evening he called me Penelope.
O Circe was it so silly?
|
Leucòina, I too was silly and told him to cry.
Imagine!
No, but he didn't cry.
He knew Circe loves beasts, who don't cry.
He cried later he cried the day I told him of the long voyage that remained
and the descent into Avernus and the blackness of Ocean.
The sort of crying that cleans the eyes and gives strength, I Circe understand it too.
But that evening he spoke to me
-laughing strangely- about his childhood and destiny, and asked about me.
He spoke playfully, you understand.
I don't understand.
Laughing.
With his mouth and voice.
But his eyes full of memories.
And then he told me to sing.
And singing I went to the loom and my raucous voice became the voice of his home and childhood.
I sweetened my voice, I was his
Penelope.
He put his head in his hands.
Who had the last laugh?
No one, Leucò.
I too that evening was mortal.
I had a name Ð
Penelope.
That was the only time that without smiling I stared my fate in the face and lowered my eyes.
And this man loved a dog?
A dog, a woman, his son, and a ship to sail the sea.
And the countless succession of days didn't look like destiny to him, and he ran toward death knowing what it was, and enriched the earth with words and deeds.
O Circe, I don't have your eyes but now
I too want to smile.
|
You were naive.
If you'd told him the wolf and pig mounted you like a beast, he'd have done it
and turned into a beast too.
I did tell him.
He barely grimaced.
After a moment he said, "So long as they're not my companions."
So he was jealous.
Not jealous.
He was loyal to them.
He understood everything.
Except the smile of us gods.
That day he wept on my bed, he didn't weep from fear, but because the last voyage was imposed on him by fate,
it was something he already knew.
"So why do it?" he asked me, buckling his sword and walking toward the sea.
I brought him the black lamb and, while his companions were weeping, he noticed a flight of swallows over the roof
and said: "They're going away too.
But they don't know what they're doing.
You, lady, do know."
Nothing else he said to you?
Nothing else.
Circe, why didn't you kill him?
Ah, I'm really stupid.
Sometimes I forget what we gods know.
And then I'm happy as if I were a girl.
As if all these things happened to the grown-ups, the Olympians,
and happened like this, inexorably but absurdly, unforeseen.
What I never foresee is in fact that I have foreseen, that I know each time what I'll do and say
- and so what I do and say always becomes new, surprsing, like a game,
like that chess game Odysseus taught me, all rules and regulations but so beautiful and unpredictable,
with its pieces of ivory.
|
He was always telling me that that game is life.
He said it's a way of conquering time.
Too many things you remember about him.
You didn't turn him into a pig or a wolf, you turned him into memory.
The mortal man, Leucò, has nothing immortal but this.
The memory that he carries and the memory he leaves behind.
This is what names and words are.
Confronted with memory even they smile,
resigned.
Circe, you too are saying words.
I know my destiny, Leucò.
Never fear.
When I first met Clarice in college, I was completely sprung.
She was smart, passionate, driven.
The sweetest thing I'd ever met.
You know the kind of woman I'm talking about, right?
The got-your-back kind of woman?
I did what a good man does when he finds the woman he's been dreaming about his whole life.
I went all the way.
For if one falls down, the other is there to pick him up.
That's right.
Even better is a cord of three strands because it is not easily broken.
My brother, my sister, life is going to try to knock you down.
Amen.
And it's hard to keep the good in a good marriage when bad things happen.
The two of you represents the first two strands.
But God represents the third.
And as long as you stay close to him your marriage will be a three-stranded cord this world can never break.
-l love you.
|
-l love you.
Congregation, Mr. and Mrs. David Johnson.
On our wedding night it was just the two of us in a little slice of heaven.
We didn't come up for air for two days.
Together, we had goals and dreams.
We were going places in this world.
She was gonna be a real-estate rainmaker.
I was gonna be a major-league ball player with hall-of-fame numbers, a big contract an entrepreneur, daddy.
The big life.
Till it all ended shattering my leg sliding into home plate during the final game of my rookie season.
Yeah, that's how young love always starts out.
Feels like the honeymoon will last forever.
But like the bishop said life has a way of knocking the hell out of you.
-Oh, hey, baby, sorry I'm late.
-Hey, baby.
There was this bumper-to-bumper traffic on the 5.
-lt's okay.
-But look at you.
Look at you in my little favorite, sexy, big, grown-girl outfit.
Oh, no, baby, I just touched my face up.
Can't go there.
All right.
-This is it.
-What's that?
This new property I've been dying to show.
I think I'm gonna get an offer on it soon.
-When are you showing it?
-Tonight.
-Oh, baby, not tonight.
-Why?
|
You know, I thought we could get a little quality time, you know?
Oh, God, Dave, I would love to spend quality time.
But, you know, my commissions pay for this house.
And besides, these clients could pay for that new work truck we've been dying to get you.
You think I want my big, strong, chocolate kiss driving around in that beat-up old thing?
David, you're building a business, okay?
And appearance is everything.
It's about time we put the pro back in Dave's All Pro Building and Remodeling.
Appearance is everything, that's what you said?
I'm saying, you can't show up to someone's house talking about you're here to remodel and rebuild in that beat-up old rusty truck.
-l happen to like that truck with rust.
-lt's a bucket.
-The rust, everything, I like that truck.
-Okay, okay, okay.
What about this weekend, you and I close ourselves in and try out that new Jacuzzi tub we bought?
I like that idea.
-But it has to be after Saturday.
-Why?
I'm meeting the boys and team on Saturday.
-The boys?
-But....
But after that-
- After that, it can then be just you and me, and me and you.
And then we could talk about little miniature you and mes.
Oh, God, please.
Don't press your luck.
And there goes our quality time, so that's on you, brother.
-Are you gonna hoop later?
-Yeah, meet Brock and Tree about 7.
Good, good, you know, because I feel a little extra around the middle section.
|
-You ain't feeling--
-Yes, I do, baby.
I'm feeling a little spare tire.
Get your hoops on tonight.
-For-- For real, you feel--
-Yeah.
-You don't-
- You-- -l'll see you later, okay?
Good morning.
You've been holding out on me, Clarice.
-What?
-You didn't tell me you was taking Oprah and Stedman out to look at houses.
Oh, hush, girl, that's Mr. and Mrs. Reid.
He's a federal judge and she's a chichi art dealer.
They're looking to get into a new zip code.
Well, you are already Salesperson of the Year.
How come you can't throw your girl charity and help me meet my quota for the month?
Because, sister girl, that's not how I got to be Salesperson of the Year.
When you live the life, you pay the price.
And these bills are about to strangle me.
What about Dave?
Go make that money, girl.
Sorry I asked.
Hey, Eminem, Eminem, you wanna turn that down a little bit?
Sorry, man.
Give my neighbors a heart attack.
You guys think I'm getting fat?
-You what?
-What did you say?
Yeah, Reesie says it looks like I'm gaining weight.
|
If she's says it's your ass, yes.
Yes, your ass did get bigger.
Not looking at my ass, are you?
If I am looking at your ass right now, I got good reason to.
Since Vanessa got pregnant, she won't let me see her naked.
So ass is an ass right now.
I can't wait to play ball today.
I'm giving everybody a good play.
Speaking of big asses, how did that disposition thing go with your divorce attorney?
-You mean, deposition, Tree?
-Depo-- That's what I said.
-Yeah, right.
-What did I say?
-You said disposition.
-All right, I'm sorry, human thesaurus.
-How did your deposition go?
-Oh, man, it's ridiculous.
I'm a dead man.
Fiona's gonna try to take everything.
My house, this car, half my salary.
That is ridiculous, man.
What, she gonna let you keep the big screen, though?
Please tell me she not gonna take your big screen.
-Oh, damn.
-That--
Can we talk about something else?
-You know, I will leave that alone.
-Thank you.
You over here worried about your weight, he's losing a TV.
-All right, all right.
|
Come on.
Let's go.
-Come on, y'all.
Damn.
Keep away from him, keep away.
Putting it up.
-Oh, no.
-Shake it off, babe.
Don't bring that here.
Don't bring that here.
What was that?
-Get off me.
-What was that, man?
Chill, yo.
Darnell, what's wrong with--?
Bringing in here street ball.
You brought it in here.
-That's what's wrong.
-Check yourself.
You ain't in the prison yard no more.
-What?
-You heard me.
You don't know what you're talking about.
You don't know what you're talking about.
-Ball up top, ball up top.
-Yeah, ball up top.
-l got my integrity, boy.
-Don't drop the soap.
You ain't nothing like you used to be.
I see how you are.
|
-Whatever.
You-- l'm from the 'hood.
-You not from the 'hood.
-You ain't from the 'hood?
-l know where l'm from.
-You're acting like you're not.
-Whatever.
-You Starbucks soldier.
-Don't drop the soap.
Starbucks security.
Get out of here with this bull--
Hey, watch out, Dave.
Oh, that's it, huh?
Game's over, huh?
What are you...?
Aren't you with him?
Why are you still here?
You're not on our side.
Big, just bully for no reason.
He's starting to shoot.
He's shooting.
Look at that view.
Big garage there, lt's beautiful, solar-lit.
Now, isn't this beautiful?
Look at this open space.
And what I love about this house for you, Judge Reid are the floor-to-ceiling built-ins in the study for all of your law books.
And for you, Mrs. Reid, the east-facing front door.
So feng shui.
Feng what?
It's Chinese, baby.
|
It means harmony.
I assume the sellers are looking for full price.
Well, we can ask, but I doubt they will be willing to come down.
But there aren't many homes in this neighborhood with a garage big enough for your vintage-car collection.
How did you know about my Corvettes?
Oh, I make it my business to know the unique needs of all of my clients.
I think I'd like to see how my chi flows...
-...through the master bedroom.
-Sure. I'll leave this with the judge.
Wait until you see the bedroom balcony.
The view is spectacular.
Funk shwa.
Don't know why Darnell needs to hate like that.
Come on, man. I kind of thought we'd been over this, D.
Yeah, it was 1 5 years ago.
He needs to get over it.
-Got three more.
-You gotta look at it like this.
-He feel he got dealt a bad hand.
-Nobody forced him to sling that crack.
Well, he just needs to realize that life isn't always fair, man.
Believe me, I know.
Come on, now, just what part of your magnificent life are you whining about now?
What are you talking about, man?
I'm getting screwed by the divorce lawyers.
Well, B, you act like you don't know why.
You getting screwed because you a hound.
-l'm not a hound.
-You get more tail than a public toilet.
True, but with Fiona, I was always faithful.
|
I mean, I may have browsed, but I never bought.
-You never bought?
-l never bought.
-Never bought?
-Never.
What about the Thai massages you like to get?
All right, so what?
I bought once or twice.
See, that's your problem, man.
Me, personally, I don't browse, I don't buy.
I keep my eyes straight ahead.
I'm focused.
I don't see nothing else.
I even turned in my player card.
Yeah, man, I feel you.
Clarice has radar.
She can even see my eyes moving behind my sunglasses.
You wanna know what I do, though?
When I wake up, I just tell Vanessa sorry.
I don't care if I did anything.
I tell her sorry.
I tell her sorry about 1 0 times a day.
Why?
Because if I do something, I already apologized.
She has nothing to say.
Makes her happy.
And a happy wife equals what?
A happy husband.
That isn't living.
That's just breathing.
|
Hey, I tell you what.
I'm not the one losing my big screen.
And why is the chair so low?
Put it so I can use the machine, Brock.
-Julie, Julie.
That's my girl.
-Who's that?
-My girl, Julie.
-Dave.
And the guy at the front desk says she's single.
So am I.
Well, almost.
Tell me why you walked over here.
What are you even looking at?
This is not our ballpark.
We're focusing, Brock.
Eyes on the prize.
I got my eyes on the prize.
Hey, looking good.
Keep going.
Keep pushing, Bryson.
Don't quit.
Keep pushing, buddy.
Last half lap.
Push to the end, Bryson.
Finish strong, buddy.
Kick it.
Good.
Good job, buddy.
Great heat, baby.
|
How did that feel, Bryson?
Good, I guess.
Feel that good?
New record.
Remember to count your strokes so you know when you're near the wall.
You see that scar?
No accidents.
-Sorry, coach, I forgot that time.
-All right.
Now, with the regional finals coming up, what would you say if I included your freestyle in the 400 medley?
It's the 1 4-year-olds, but I want you to start steering toward the Junior Olympics for next year.
I'll take that as a yes.
-We're gonna get some pizza.
-l'm so excited.
-Mom, stop, it's embarrassing.
-Why?
I'm excited.
You just cleaned the clocks of a bunch of high school freshmen.
Baby, you awake?
I am now.
Are you drunk?
No, I'm not drunk.
-Just had a beer with the fellas.
-That's nice.
-You know what I was thinking?
-What?
I was thinking that we need to get back to the loving part of our marriage.
I know what this is about.
Trying to keep up with Tree and Vanessa.
-No, I ain't trying to keep up--
|
-Yes, you are, yes, you are.
I just look at you, and I just think that we could have some beautiful babies.
David, how many times do we have to have this discussion?
I'm not ready for babies.
Would you move over?
It's hot in here.
I'm not ready for babies.
I have a career, I have dreams, I have places I wanna go.
-l do too.
-A baby's just gonna get in the way.
Besides, you're building a business, okay?
You can't come home all hours of the night after drinking with your boys, and then expect to have sex like rabbits all night long.
Oh, by the way, I need you home by 5:00 tomorrow for my awards ceremony.
Yeah.
Whatever.
Like that rag on your head.
That's why you're not getting any.
There we go, get it.
Keep your butt down.
Keep your butt down.
See the ball into the glove.
You'll get it, Marcus.
All right, here we go.
Get in there.
-There you go.
-Good play, that's what I like to see.
-That's what I like to see.
-Yeah, boy, yeah, boy.
Who's your daddy now, sucker?
Please, cracker.
|
You looking like your white mama making that play.
-What?
-Hey, not today.
Hey.
Hey.
-Just let go.
-Go, fight, fight, fight.
Get-
- Hey, hey.
-What--?
-Come on, man.
-Get your hands--
-Break it up.
-Boy, you better get up.
-Bring it in.
-Get up.
-Bring it in.
Des, what's wrong with you, huh?
How many times do I have to tell you?
Nobody is gonna disrespect anybody on this team.
You got that?
Now, both of you look at me.
What race am I?
Black.
Wrong.
You know what Brother King said?
He said I'm human first, then I'm black.
There's only one race of people, and that's the human race.
But there's two kinds of people, the good ones and bad ones.
Now, Darius, look at Coach Brock.
|
What race is he?
White.
We're gonna have to work on that.
Hit the bases.
Let's go.
What are you saying, man?
Martin Luther King never said those words.
No, that was Tyrone King.
You know, he owns that barber shop down there on Florence.
You're lying. I know Tyrone.
He stutter.
He don't even talk like that.
Look, look, we got company, dude.
Come on.
You gotta get up out of here with that King Cobra.
I ain't got to get up out of nowhere, man.
I can come see my boy anywhere I want to.
Not drunk on your ass, you can't.
It's a bad influence on the boys and against league rules.
Get out of here, man, come on.
Oh, what, you gonna go get the police on me?
Because of the rules, you gonna go get the police on me?
All right, I ain't gonna cause no trouble.
Darius, let's go.
Coach said we gotta go.
I ain't finished playing yet.
What?
Man, get your ass over here right now.
I said it's time to go.
-God.
|
-l'll drag your ass out of here.
Get over here now.
Who you talking to like that?
Better not ever talk to me like that, boy.
No wonder Darius has an attitude.
With him as his father.
Well, see, he's his daddy.
He's a long way from being his father, man.
Let's go.
Here we go.
Why you gotta make me quit the team?
You better watch how you talk to me, boy, before I put my foot in your ass.
But I wanna play ball like you did.
Oh, now you're saying you wanna be like me?
You really wanna be like me, then buck up.
Do you see me out there?
I ain't chasing after no empty dreams in no field wasting my damn time.
I'm in the real world.
You wanna come to the real world?
Because the real world eats your ass and spits your ass out.
Wake up.
Stop dreaming.
Did you really forget about my awards ceremony?
I know, I just got carried away with the boys, baby, all right?
-Give me five minutes.
Five minutes.
-You are so insensitive and selfish.
Everything is about you and those damn boys.
Do you have any idea how important this night is for me?
How hard I've worked for us?
|
Or what an honor it is to be Salesperson of the Year?
Look, I know it's a big night for you, okay?
I'm sorry. I got a little caught up on the field, I apologize.
Why do you waste your time with those boys?
Clarice, don't start.
Don't start.
You know how important it is for me to be coaching kids.
They're not gonna do nothing but end up in prison like their ghetto-pass-carrying daddies.
I saw your lips moving, but it was your mother's nagging-ass voice--
You leave Mama out of this.
You leave Mama out of this.
All I know is if you spent half of the time at home you do with those boys, we wouldn't be having--
-Look, I said I was sorry.
-Oh, whatever--
Clarice.
Clarice, baby, you okay?
-All right, what do you got for me?
-BP is 85l55.
-Resp. is 1 2 and falling.
-Distal pulse is dropping.
-We got a line in.
-There's obvious abdominal edema.
-Get the O.R. ready.
-l'll call.
-Come on, people, let's go.
-Move.
We will take care of her.
-Someone needs to take care of that.
-She needs me.
-lt's hospital policy.
|
-All right, all right.
-You're hurt, we'll take care of you.
-l got it.
Why don't you spend a few moments with her?
She's still coming out of anesthesia.
She's under a lot of pain medication.
You got one tough cookie here.
She told me I wasn't allowed to remove any of her body parts without her permission.
That's my Reesie.
Tough as nails.
Can I speak to you outside for a minute?
Mr. Johnson, this is a very severe injury.
If she doesn't wanna park in the handicapped spot the rest of her life, she's gonna need months of physical therapy.
You need to make her understand that.
Okay.
-Are you gonna be all right?
-Yeah, thank you.
You're welcome.
How is she doing?
Her leg was broke pretty bad.
is she gonna be all right?
Yeah.
It could've been a lot worse, though.
Yeah, it makes you count your blessings.
You gonna be able to take over the team for a while?
-Yeah, don't worry about it.
-Yeah, yeah.
We do most of the work anyway, right?
Here, look, I got Clarice some flowers.
She'll like these.
|
Yeah, I got you a bear.
You got him a bear?
Yes, I got him a bear.
-You bought that for him?
-Brock, yes, I brought him-
- Yes.
It's my money.
Clarice Johnson.
I'm looking for Clarice Johnson.
-She's in Recovery, right there.
-Thank you.
Dave, Dave.
Okay, okay, what--?
Just tell me what happened.
She's okay, all right?
-Now, she had to have surgery--
-Surgery.
-Why didn't you call me sooner?
-Everything was happening so fast.
I wasn't thinking straight.
It looks like you had time to call everybody else.
Where is she?
-We're gonna go.
-We're gonna go.
-Nice to see you.
-What happened?
-Okay, where is she?
-Okay, it was an accident, all right?
Somebody ran a red light and hit us.
It just came from nowhere.
|
You know what?
I don't wanna hear that.
She called me when she was at home waiting for you.
Now, if you hadn't been late coaching those kids you would've paid more attention.
You wouldn't have been in a hurry.
This is your fault, Dave.
This is your fault.
Now, where is she?
Two-fifteen.
Once, I heard a radio host ask the question:
"Why do bad things happen to good people?"
During Clarice's weeks in the hospital we asked that question a lot.
I tried to be there for her in every way a husband should.
But it just seemed like it was never enough.
And when we came home the reality that everything had changed began to sink in.
-We gonna get you through this.
-We?
We aren't the ones with their leg twisted up like a damn pretzel.
Got everything in the house already taken care of for you.
We got about a week's worth of meals in the freezer.
When we get inside....
-You all right?
-Yeah.
When we get inside, I'm gonna warm you up a hot little plate.
-Oh, boy.
-And get some food. I got you.
-l've moved in.
-Mama.
Hey, baby.
Well, don't just stand there.
|
Bring her on in.
Look, I appreciate your concern and all that, but I got this, okay?
I'm capable of taking care of my wife, and I got-- l got you, baby, okay?
Dave, I figured I was gonna have to break this down to you.
Now, if things was jiggy as all that I wouldn't have to be here now, would I?
-Okay.
-Like I said, bring her on in here.
-Come on.
-l'm so glad you're here, Mama.
I'm here, baby.
-Dave.
-See that?
-That's what I'm talking about.
-l got it.
-Be careful with her.
-l got it.
So rough.
-She already had one accident.
-Now you gonna break my other foot.
I know, that's what I'm talking about.
The only way you're gonna get Mama out of the house is to get Clarice back on her feet.
The doctor told me she wants me to get Clarice into physical therapy.
Oh, you know--?
Remember that girl I had my eye on?
-Which girl?
-No, the girl- lt's the girl over at the pool, Julie.
-Oh, okay, I do.
Word around the club is she's one of the top therapists.
You should give her a call.
See if she makes house calls.
|
-There you go.
-And then, you know, let me know.
You know what D's problem is?
He hasn't learned from the lessons I've learned from.
I try to tell you things, but you do not listen, man.
The other night, Vanessa's taking a bubble bath.
She's in the tub, looking good.
Normally, that's my green light to go in there and do what I'm supposed to do.
So I go in there, to get a little cuddly with her, and she shoved me off.
Like, pushed me.
She's bigger than me, you know that.
So when she pushed me, I fell back.
And she was like, you know, "Get away, you stinky man."
Now, what I need to know-- Not wanna know.
What I need to know, am I a stinky man?
Seriously, like, do I smell?
Am I the friend that stink and y'all don't tell me, because we close?
-Do I have stinky breath?
-l don't know.
-Do I have stinky breath?
-l don't know.
-Tell me.
Smell my breath.
-l'm not gonna.
-Smell my breath.
-l'm not gonna smell--
You're gonna smell my breath.
-l figured that.
-l'm telling you, man.
Even after everything Fiona and I have been through, I still miss her.
|
-Are you serious?
-lt's something about the way she....
She crosses those legs and she just bounces those high heels up and down.
My thing is when I just get home Reesie's just getting out the shower.
She puts on one of my little old tank tops.
Starts painting her toenails.
You know what I like?
I like it....
l like it when Vanessa has me rub this skin cream on her back.
She's got bad eczema.
Big bumps on her back.
And it needs to be moisturized.
And I do it. I do it.
It's a little rocky moisturizing roll on her back, but I don't mind.
Because that's what she has me do, you know.
-Years I've been doing that.
-Tree.
-Are you crying?
-What?
-Are you crying?
No, look at me.
-Come on, I'm enjoying myself, right?
-You are crying.
-l'm not crying, man.
It's not even tears, man.
I feel like these women got us in a beam, so we--
They got us in one of them Star Wars contractor-beam things.
It's pulling us in.
You know what I'm talking about?
It's like we couldn't escape that beam if we wanted to, you know.
|
It's like you want to, but you love it.
You love it so much that you can't.
You can't escape it.
It's an interesting way of putting it, Star Wars.
-That's what you said, Star Wars?
-Star Wars, man, it's a beam.
It's a beam, it's like a light.
They shine it at you.
It mess with your body, your nerves and stuff, and you can't move.
You just gotta allow yourself to get pulled in.
And I'm getting pulled in.
You need to get pulled in and you need to get pulled in.
Accept it, man.
Accept your life.
-l accept mine.
-No, no, no.
-You're right, I probably had enough.
-Yeah.
I probably had too many.
-Oh, no, honey, we're not buying-- -l got this, I got this.
I hope I have the right address.
I'm Julie Sawyer.
You called for an in-home physical therapist?
-Yeah, that's right.
-Okay.
-Dave Johnson, come on in.
-Nice to meet you.
Reesie, this is the physical therapist I was telling you about.
Please have a seat.
This is Miss Sawyer.
|
And I'm Mrs. Clark, her mother.
How do you do?
Mrs. Johnson?
Look, Mrs. Johnson, I know after all you've been through the last thing you want is a stranger in your life, so....
How about we get to know each other--?
I'm not looking for anyone to psychoanalyze me either.
Okay, well, that's good, because that's not why I'm here.
But, you know, to be honest talking about how you're feeling emotionally can help me design a better plan to get you on--
How I feel.
Lord Jesus, where did y'all find her?
How I feel?
You wanna know how I feel?
I feel like Humpty Dumpty, that's how I feel.
Clarice, you need to calm down.
Let this woman do her job.
Now, you do know what you're doing, right?
Yes, ma'am.
Mrs. Johnson, I understand.
So why don't I just come back tomorrow, and we'll begin then?
Bingo, that's a great place to start.
How about you come back never?
What about that?
-That works for me.
-Okay, no, we're gonna do this today.
And you're gonna calm down.
You stop acting like this.
Come on now.
Just leave me alone, okay?
Just leave me alone.
Just....

The bishop used to tell a story about Adam and Eve.
When God made Adam, he instructed him to do three things:
-Work, cultivate, protect.
-Two, three, down.
-That's great.
-Oh, my God, that's incredible, okay.
What we're gonna do today is have a little fun.
Down through history, men have been measured by how hard they've worked and cultivated by how well they've protected their wives and children.
Down, three, two, one.
Up again.
Up, one, two, three, hold.
In the old days women saw their men as conquerors, providers, heroes.
But somewhere along the line, that changed.
Push, push.
Women started becoming their own heroes.
Okay, how's this there?
Maybe it was because their men forgot how to be heroic.
Or because women didn't wanna be protected anymore.
Or maybe women had to be their own heroes because of the pain they had to endure in life.
Look, he's handsome.
-Bryson.
-Bryson.
He's so handsome.
But whatever the cause the world took away a man's reasons for being a man.
They told him he wasn't important anymore.
And when that happened it turned the whole world upside-down.
-l don't know how to thank you.
-You don't need to.
You really don't.
You know what you can do?
|
You could write a letter to my boss at the clinic saying you've never met a skilled or more professional therapist.
I wanna thank you too, Julie.
Look at her.
She's doing extremely well.
Yes, you are truly gifted at what you do.
Thank you.
-Okay, I'll see you Monday?
-Yeah.
-Okay, great.
-Get home safely, okay?
-l will.
-Take care.
-Enjoy your evening, okay?
-l will.
-Hey, baby.
-Hey, what's up?
Not much.
No, no, no, don't worry.
It does it all the time.
It's probably just the battery.
I'll be fine.
-lt sounds more than just the battery.
-No, no, please go on inside, go on.
Nonsense, you can't be late for your son.
-Dave will run you home.
-Good.
-No, it's my hoop night.
-Hoops night?
I ain't gonna miss my night.
I can call her a tow truck.
|
Miss your hoops, are you insane?
You're missing the point here.
This woman saved your wife's life.
-He can miss his hoops.
-Okay, I don't wanna put anyone out.
-lt'll make me feel worse, please.
-Little girl, little girl.
Get your ass in this car.
Let me ask a question.
I have a friend who has actually been wanting to ask you out on a date.
-Me?
-Yeah, you.
But he's in a complicated situation.
Oh, God, no, don't tell me.
He's recently broken up or getting divorced or lives with his mother?
Getting divorced.
No, I appreciate that, but I think I'll pass.
Single mothers don't have a lot of options but I don't really need to be his rebound relationship.
If it's all the same.
So how long has he been swimming?
Oh, as soon as I could get him in the water.
He loves it.
-Hey, Bry.
-Hi, Mom.
This is Dave.
His wife's my patient.
-Remember, the ones in the accident?
-Right.
-How do you do, sir?
-How's it going?
|
My car broke down again, but Dave offered to give us a ride.
Cool.
So you like baseball, Bryson?
Well, I've always wanted to try it.
But Mom throws like a girl.
Watch it.
Well, I coach a team over at East Side Field and if you want, you could stop by some time and I could show you a few pointers.
-Really?
-Yeah.
That would be totally sick.
Oh, ours is....
The street up there.
The minute I get in the house, I'll call for a tow for that car.
You don't have to do that.
I know a mechanic that owes me a favor so I'll have him take a look at it.
Clarice and I owe you.
-Are you sure?
-Yeah, no problem.
Thank you.
All right.
-All right.
-Lord, yes.
Oh, yeah.
-All right.
-Praise the Lord.
-Hallelujah.
-Hallelujah.
Hallelujah.
Jesus called out to the multitudes.
-He said, "Come to me.
|
-Come.
-All who are weary, come to me.
-Come to me.
-And I will give you rest."
-Yes, he will.
He said, "l will give you rest if you come to me."
Amen.
So today, I want you to stand up and come down to the altar.
Come down.
I always felt church is like a hospital.
It's where sick people go to get well.
Anybody out there that needs praying for today.
Or maybe you just need just a little encouragement.
Jesus said....
Whenever I went to church, I felt hope.
Come on, come to me.
-Yes.
-Amen.
Glory, hallelujah.
Girl, when I saw you, hey, I almost went in.
I said my D was looking like Miss America...
-...up in here.
-Stop it.
I hope this don't mean you're about to come back to work and I gotta start fighting you for clients.
-Well....
-Oh, you know, I meant to tell you.
Mr. Hastings forced me to take some of your clients while you were gone.
Girl, don't worry about that.
-l would do the same thing to you.
-Okay.
|
But you better bring your boxing gloves to work.
Girl, I can't fight.
I just got my nails done.
You crazy, come here, girl.
It was really good to see you folks in church today.
Well, with what we've been through, it's good to be seen.
The Lord's been good, bishop.
Clarice has got her trainer, has her walking again and Dave's been a real trouper.
No, no, you have.
We are here for you, 2 4l7.
Even if you just wanna come in and talk.
-Come here.
-lt is so good to see you.
-You too, love you.
-l love you too, girl.
-Okay.
-See you tomorrow.
You better bring your gloves.
I'm glad it ain't a street fight because you know I don't wanna get my face scratched up.
Hey, baby, how you doing?
-Okay, take care of my girl.
-Todd, let's go.
Come on, now, you know I'm hungry.
I got to get to brunch.
You're walking all slow.
It's sickening, man.
He really disgusts me, dude.
-Hi, Julie.
-Yes?
I'm Brock Houseman.
|
I'm a friend of Dave Johnson's.
Yeah, I....
Has he mentioned me at all?
Yeah-
- No, well....
Bet you $ 1 0, he's gonna take all the credit for fixing the car.
You fixed my car?
I don't know what to say.
-No, don't.
-Thank you.
No, you don't understand.
Don't say anything. lt's my pleasure.
Why are we even here?
Tell me why we're here.
We're part of the problem, man.
-No, we're accomplices.
-No, we're not, you are.
-All right.
-You drove, I'm not a part of this.
-Look at him.
-Look, look, look.
What?
Why are you so happy?
-What?
-Nothing, nothing at all, Satan.
Satan?
Hey, hey, l-- l can't help it. I am not ashamed.
-Get in the back.
-l have no problem getting in the back.
Better not tell Vanessa I was here.
|
So I think you can see how a retail space in this neighborhood can be a home run.
Well, I like what I see, Clarice.
-lt's actually quite impressive, really.
-Yeah, it has lots of potential.
Excuse me, who will be taking the check?
-We will.
Sure?
-No, no, no, I got it.
-Please, I insist.
-No, l- l insist.
-No, I got it.
-Are you sure?
-Yeah, I'm positive.
Go ahead, Dave.
-Thank you very much.
-You're so welcome.
It's nice to see you back up on your feet now.
It is so good to be back.
I can only imagine.
Dave, tell me, I'm interested in getting your perspective.
What's it like to have a wife who is as progressive as Clarice?
Well, you know, anything Clarice puts her mind to is gonna be successful, so you guys are in good hands.
Oh, impressive.
As a general contractor, I thought you might be able to weigh in and share your perspectives from a professional level on the architectural flow chart that she's presented to us today.
Well, see, with this particular project, my approach....
l mean, I would approach it in a way that....
Actually, the projects I work on are a little bit smaller.
-About 3000 to 5000 square feet.
-Dave, Dave, don't be so--
He's just being modest.
|
David owns a very lucrative construction company.
-Really?
-Yes, sweetheart.
I was just letting them know that the projects I normally--
You don't have to let everybody know everything. lt's okay.
-We're looking to get into-- -l was just telling the man--
-Don't tell the man everything.
-Maybe we could work together.
You might be able to be the general contractor, do the finish-out work.
-Yeah.
-Perfect, I think that's a great idea.
Excuse me, sir, I'm sorry, but your card has been declined.
You know what?
It's gotta be a mistake.
-We'll take care of it.
-No, no, no, I can--
Let me give you another credit card.
Did I bring it with me?
I brought the American Express.
-Do I have it?
-Think you got it.
-Clarice, please.
-No, I can do it.
I'll handle this.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Nice music.
Oh, and the food....
l've never been so humiliated in all of my life.
-You realize how you made me look?
|
-How I made you look?
Well, if I embarrassed you in front of Mr. Big-Time-Development-Head that's too damn bad.
Think twice before you open your big-ass mouth talking about--
Big-ass-- lt is irresponsible of you to be over your limit on your credit card.
Do you mean to tell me you don't have $200?
-l'm done.
-While you was recuperating I was the only one bringing money up into this house.
I was the one paying bills.
Overextended?
It's because of you.
-This mortgage's about to bankrupt us.
-Oh, please, don't be so dramatic.
This mortgage is not going to bankrupt us.
And as soon as I clean up this little mess you made we will be fine.
We're gonna take the insurance money, put it down on an Escalade.
I just let you talk me into buying a 300.
We ain't buying no Escalade.
My clients don't ride in anything but an Escalade, okay?
-They're gonna be walking, then.
-Hey, hey, hey, settle down.
I can hear y'all all the way upstairs.
And if I can hear you, the whole neighborhood can hear you.
And you know what, Dave?
I've been waiting to tell you this for a long time.
Maybe if you stop spending so much time with them little gangsters-in-training down there and spend more time in this house handling your business you wouldn't be having this argument right now.
You better stop talking about my boys like that.
Now, look, I said what I got to say.
You know what, Mama?
I got this, I got this.
David, I have worked too hard to get us to where we are and hell will freeze over before I let you take us backward--
|
-Know what you need to work on?
-What?
Work on not being in a fantasyland, trying to be somebody that you not.
Hey, hey, hey, wait a minute.
-Don't talk to my daughter like that.
-That's my wife.
-l'll talk to her any way I want.
-Don't talk to my mother like that.
Are you crazy?
Have you lost your mind?
I'm out of here.
-Wait a minute, Dave--
-Hey, don't you dare run after him.
Sometimes when you don't know where to turn you got to turn to what you know.
I knew my chair, my records, my music.
Only problem is, when the song is over you're right back where you started.
I'm telling you, I don't know how much longer I can put up with all this drama.
Then why don't you just try to sit Clarice down and talk it all through?
I could talk all day long.
I think her and her mother are missing the listening gene.
Brock Houseman.
Yes, ma'am, thanks for calling me back.
Look, I was hoping we could talk about-- ls that right?
No, no, I understand.
I'm just sorry to hear that.
I will let him know.
Okay, bye.
Darius' mom.
She said Darnell still won't let the boy back on the team.
What's he trying to do?
