AND A DASH OF CINNAMON.
JENNY, DON'T DEVIATE
FROM THE RECIPE
OF MY SIGNATURE DISH.
SHOULD I TOSS IT?
I DIDN'T SAY IT WAS BAD,
MERELY IMPERTINENT.
[METAL BOWL CRASHES]
SORRY, CHEF.

BE SO CLUMSY?
MUST YOU ALWAYS BE SO MEAN?
IT'S MY SIGNATURE MOOD.

JENNY FINTLEY.
IS THAT YOU?
ASHLEY?
HI!
HI, YEAH, WE ACTUALLY--
WE WENT TO SCHOOL TOGETHER.
OH! HOW NICE FOR YOU.
I ALWAYS WONDERED
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU.
UM...
MY MOM ACTUALLY GOT SICK,
SO I HAD TO QUIT SCHOOL
AND GO TO WORK.
SO YOU'RE A CATERER NOW?
I HOPE TO BECOME A CHEF
AND OPEN
MY OWN RESTAURANT ONE DAY.
WELL, ARE YOU MARRIED?
NOT YET, BUT I HAVE
A WONDERFUL BOYFRIEND,
DARYL.
WE'RE PRACTICALLY ENGAGED.
I'M SURE HE'S GONNA
PROPOSE ANY DAY NOW.
WELL, WHAT'S THE HOLD-UP?
NOTHING SAYS "COMMITMENT"
LIKE TIFFANY'S.
[]
JENNY?
AHEM! JENNY.
GARNISH.
RIGHT.

IS THAT A NEW DRESS?
YOU SAID
THIS WAS A SPECIAL OCCASION.

[CHUCKLES]
I WANT TO REMEMBER THIS
MOMEN FOREVER.
THANK YOU.
I HAVE GREAT NEWS.
[TAKES A SHAKY BREATH]
GENTROTECH!
THEY'RE THIS REALLY HO NEW BIOTECH COMPANY
AND THEY'RE GOING GLOBAL.
THEY'RE SENDING ME

I CAN'T EVEN
BELIEVE IT.
NEITHER CAN I.
[WEAK CHUCKLE]
AND THEN
STOCKHOLM, MADRID--
EVERYWHERE I'VE
ALWAYS WANTED TO GO.
WOW...
DARYL, THAT'S JUST...
THAT'S GREAT.
BUT, UH...
WHAT ABOUT US?
UM, HEY...
OUR RELATIONSHIP CAN
WITHSTAND
SOME TIME APART.
I-I THOUGHT YOU WERE
GOING TO PROPOSE, BUT...
[STAMMERS] JENNY...
I LOVE YOU.
YOU KNOW THAT.
I'M NOT SURE THAT'S ENOUGH.
I DON'T WANT TO LOSE YOU.
I--
THERE'S NO RIGH OR WRONG HERE, DARYL.
WE WANT DIFFERENT THINGS.
WHAT?
YOU'RE BREAKING UP WITH ME?
YOU'RE ON YOUR WAY
TO SINGAPORE,
AND I WANT A PICKET FENCE.
GEOGRAPHICALLY...
WE'RE OUT OF SYNC.

[SIGHS]
[PHONE RINGS]
HELLO?
-IS THIS JENNIFER ANN
FINTLEY?
- YES.
I'VE BEEN TRYING TO
TRACK YOU DOWN.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
IF THIS IS ABOUT THE CAR
LOAN,
I HAVE ALREADY PAID IT IN
FULL.
IT'S ABOU YOUR INHERITANCE.
YOU HAVE INHERITED A HOUSE
IN BUCKS COUNTY,
PENNSYLVANIA.
I DON'T UNDERSTAND.
SOMEONE LEFT ME THEIR HOUSE?
THE OWNER OF
THE PROPERTY
WAS EMILY ADAMS.
SHE LEFT I TO HER COUSIN, MADGE,
WHO IS YOUR MOTHER'S AUNT.
NOW, IT'S SOMEWHA COMPLICATED...
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.
WHY DON'T YOU JUST COME DOWN
TO MY OFFICE IN HARRISBURG,
AND I'LL EXPLAIN THE
DETAILS?
OKAY!
[]
I FOUND THIS PICTURE
OF MY MOM
WHEN SHE WAS A LITTLE GIRL.
I REMEMBER HER SAYING
SHE SPENT A SUMMER
IN BUCKS COUNTY.
I-IS THIS THE HOUSE?
I BELIEVE SO.
YES. UH, THE, UH,
OWNER OF THE HOUSE,
EMILY ADAMS,
DIED IN A NURSING HOME
FOUR MONTHS AGO.
A WILL WAS FOUND,
WHICH DATES BACK TO 1965.
SHE NAMED TWO
BENEFICIARIES--
HER COUSIN, MADGE,
AND THE CARETAKER
WHO LOOKED AFTER THE
PROPERTY.
BOTH ARE DECEASED,
SO I'VE TRACKED DOWN THE
HEIRS.
I CAN'T BELIEVE
I HAVE A HOUSE.
AM I DREAMING?
I MEAN, IS THIS--
IS THIS REALLY HAPPENING?
AS FAR AS I KNOW.
THIS IS A BRAND-NEW
BEGINNING FOR ME.
I DO HOPE MR. HOWELL
HAS REMEMBERED OUR
APPOINTMENT.
-[DOOR OPENS]
-WHO?
IF WE DON'T CLOSE THIS DEAL
BY THE END OF THE WEEK--
THANK YOU--
IT'S GONNA GO TO GOLDMAN.
LOOK, I GOTTA CALL YOU
BACK, OKAY? RIGHT. BYE.
HI.
-WELCOME.
-PLEASURE.
-PLEASURE.
-HI!
NICE TO MEET YOU.
[LAWYER]:
THIS IS JENNIFER FINTLEY,
THE OTHER OWNER OF THE
HOUSE.
UH, PLEASE.
MR. HOWELL IS DESCENDED
FROM EMILY'S CARETAKER.
YOU TWO ARE NOT RELATED
TO EACH OTHER,
BUT YOU EACH OWN
HALF OF THE HOUSE.
GREAT!
WE CAN SPLIT THE PROFITS.
I MEAN,
WHAT'S THE PROPERTY WORTH,
AND HOW QUICKLY CAN WE SELL?
I HAVE NO INTENTION
OF SELLING MY HOME!
I WANT TO
KEEP THE HOUSE.
CAN'T SELL
HALF A HOUSE.
WHY DON'T YOU DRIVE
DOWN TO BUCKS COUNTY,
AND TAKE A LOOK
AT THE PROPERTY?
MAYBE YOU CAN COME
TO SOME KIND OF AGREEMENT.
FINE! WE'LL DO THAT NOW.
WHOA, WHOA, WHOA,
WHOA, WHOA.
LET'S SLOW DOWN HERE.
I DON'T HAVE THAT KIND OF
TIME.
I DON'T EVEN HAVE A CAR.
I CAME HERE ON A TRAIN.
I HAVE A CAR.
AND IF YOU'RE IN THAT MUCH
OF
A HURRY, WE'D BETTER GE GOING.
THANK YOU!
[SHE HEADS OUT]
[BRIAN]: YOU THINK YOU COULD
SPEED IT UP A LITTLE?
[JENNY]:
AH! IT'S SO PICTURESQUE!
OOH. LOOK AT THAT CORNFIELD.
I MEAN, IT GOES ON FOR DAYS!
RIGHT. AMAZING CORN.
IT'S A COMMODITY
THAT'S WAY OVERPRICED.
WHAT GOOD IS MAKING MONEY
IF NOT TO BUY
SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL?
YOU ALREADY HAVE BEAUTIFUL--
IT'S RIGHT OUTSIDE
YOUR WINDOW.
ARE YOU ALWAYS LIKE THIS?
[]
HELLO!
HUH?
HOW DO I GET TO MAPLE LANE?
UH, IT'S TWO MILES
DUE EAST OF HERE.
-THANK YOU!
-THANKS.
YOU LET YOUR WIFE
DO THE DRIVING?
OH, NO, NO.
WE'RE NOT MARRIED.
[SHE CHUCKLES]
TOO BAD FOR YOU.
-[LAUGHS] THANK YOU!
-THANK YOU.
-THAT GUY'S SO CUTE.
-OH, HE'S ADORABLE. YEAH.
[SIGHS]
IT'S PERFECT.
IT'S A WRECK.
[]
[BRIAN SIGHS WEARILY]
I SHOULD'VE
BROUGHT GLOVES
AND A HAND-SANITIZER.
[DREAMILY]: OH!
[COUGHS AND SCOFFS]
ISN'T THIS CHARMING?
YEAH, IF YOU'RE
INTO DOILIES.
[STAIRS CREAKING]
OKAY. LOOK, LISTEN.
I DON'T TRUS STAIRS I CAN HEAR.
I CAN ACTUALLY
TASTE THE DUST.
A FOUR-POSTER BED!
A MAN CAN ONLY TAKE
SO MUCH LACE. [COUGHS]
[GASPING]
[SHE SIGHS DREAMILY]:
OH...
I MEAN, THIS IS JUS SO SPACIOUS AND-AND HOMEY.
NOW, YOU KNOW, ALL YOU SEE
ARE THE SILVER LININGS.
AND ALL YOU SEE
ARE THE PROBLEMS.
OH! WAIT, WAIT...
BECAUSE THIS HOUSE
HAS TONS OF PROBLEMS--
[BLEATING]
WHOA. BACK UP,
BACK UP.
THAT'S A GOAT.
THAT'S, UH...
VERY CHIVALROUS,
BUT I THINK WE'LL SURVIVE.
SHE WON'T HURT YOU.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
WHAT IF IT BITES?
SILVER LININGS ARE FRIENDLY.
HEY, WHAT'S UP?
[SNEEZING]
[GOAT BLEATS]
YOU ALL RIGHT?
WHAT'S THAT?
YOU ALL RIGHT?
YEAH, NO. APPARENTLY,
I'M ALLERGIC TO GOAT.
THIS HOUSE GETS
BETTER AND BETTER.
[BRIAN GRUMBLES]: OH, COME
ON!
COME ON.
[WHACK]
THIS IS JUST A LOVELY ROOM.
YEAH! YEAH, IT'S GREAT,
ISN'T IT?
I CAN'T GET CELL PHONE
RECEPTION
FOR THE LIFE OF ME.
I JUST FEEL LIKE
I BELONG HERE, YOU KNOW?
THAT'S GREAT.
I BELONG IN NEW YORK.
I'M LATE FOR A MEETING.
WELL, WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO
ABOUT THE HOUSE?
YOU KIDDING ME?
WE'RE GONNA SELL IT.
NO!
NO, NO. PLEASE, PLEASE.
OKAY, WHAT DO YOU SUGGEST?
WHAT IF I BUY YOU OUT?
OKAY, NOT NOW, BU EVENTUALLY.
YOU SEE, I HAVE THIS DREAM
OF OPENING A RESTAURANT.
SO, I-I COULD
REVISE THAT DREAM
AND I COULD TURN THIS PLACE
INTO A BED AND BREAKFAST.
[LAUGHING]
WELL, I HOPE
YOUR BREAKFASTS ARE GREAT,
BECAUSE THIS HOUSE
IS THE PITS.
LOOK, I KNOW YOU THINK
I'M NUTS, BUT...
THIS JUST FEELS LIKE HOME.
PLEASE?
FINE.
I'M SURE YOU LOOK A LO BETTER
IN LACE THAN I WILL.
CAN WE PLEASE GO?
YES! YES. LET'S GO.
SO WE HAVE A DEAL?
YEAH. WE HAVE A DEAL.
[SIGHS HAPPILY]
I'M SO EXCITED!
HURRY UP.
IT'S NOT BRAIN SURGERY.
-YES, CHEF!
-YOU'RE LATE.
HANG UP YOUR COA AND GRAB AN APRON.
NO, CHEF.
CHOP THE RADICCHIO.
YOU CHOP THE RADICCHIO,
CHEF.
WELL, AS YOU CAN SEE,
I'M BUSY WITH THE MAIN
COURSE.
YOUR MUSTARD-CRUSTED SALMON
IS DRY.
I WILL NOT TOLERATE
THIS KIND OF ATTITUDE..
AND I WILL NOT TOLERATE YOU.
I QUIT. I QUIT.
[QUIETLY]: WHAT?
[SMACK]
WAIT!
WHAT IS IT?
YOU WANT A RAISE?
NO. I'M MOVING TO BUCKS
COUNTY
AND I'M OPENING
A BED AND BREAKFAST.
THAT'S NOT EXACTLY
A RESTAURANT.
WELL, IT'S CLOSE ENOUGH.
AND YOU KNOW WHAT?
SOME B&BS ARE ACTUALLY
KNOWN FOR THEIR FOOD.
A RESTAURANT YOU CAN SLEEP
IN,
HOW QUAINT.
WHY ARE YOU ALWAYS
SO HARD ON ME?
BECAUSE I KNOW HOW
TALENTED YOU ARE, JENNY,
AND I ONLY WAN THE BEST FOR YOU.
WELL, YOU COULD'VE SAID THA A LONG TIME AGO.
NO ONE EVER SAID IT TO ME.
WELL, THEY SHOULD HAVE.
WELL, IT'S ABOUT TIME
YOU HAD YOUR OWN KITCHEN...
CHEF.
THAT IS A TERRIBLE THING TO
DO.
WHAT IS?
MAKE ME MISS YOU.
OKAY. GET OUT OF HERE.
[ROARS]: BACK TO WORK!
[STAFF]: YES, CHEF!
[SIGHS AS BUSTLE RETURNS

[]
[BLEATING]
OH. I WISH I SPOKE GOAT.
[BLEATS]
WELL, YOU CERTAINLY
HAVE A LOT TO SAY, HUH?
I THINK I'LL CALL YOU GABBY.
OKAY?
[GABBY BLEATS]
WOW.
WELCOME HOME.
[]
[GASPS]
[SQUEAKING]
I WOULD SCREAM
IF I WASN'T SO TIRED.
[]
"DEAR EMILY.
"WISHING YOU MY VERY BES ON THIS SPECIAL DAY.
LESTER."
WHO WAS LESTER?
I WISH I'D KNOWN YOU.
[KNOCKING AT DOOR]
WE HAVE A VISITOR!
I'M ALICE.
I LIVE DOWN THE ROAD.
OH! ON THAT BEAUTIFUL FARM?
YEAH, IT'S A LOT OF WORK,
BUT IT'S WORTH THE EFFORT.
THIS IS FOR YOU.
THANK YOU!
WHAT SMELLS SO GOOD?
WHERE DID YOU LEARN
TO COOK LIKE THIS?
[CHUCKLES]
MY DAD DIED
WHEN I WAS A KID,
SO MY MOTHER HAD TO
WORK FULL-TIME.
I WOULD DO ALL THE COOKING.
I WOULD MAKE
THESE ELABORATE CONCOCTIONS,
AND SHE WOULD PRETEND
TO LOVE THEM.
I DON'T THINK
SHE WAS PRETENDING.
DO YOU HAVE ANY FAMILY
AROUND HERE?
NO. I LOST MY MOM
A FEW YEARS AGO.
IS THERE A FELLA
YOU HAVE YOUR EYE ON?
THERE... WAS, YES,
BUT IT, UH,
IT DIDN'T WORK OUT.
MM.
DID YOU KNOW EMILY?
NOT VERY WELL.
SHE KEPT TO HERSELF.
I FOUND A CARD
FROM SOMEONE NAMED LESTER.
YOU KNOW WHO HE WAS?
NOT A CLUE.
MAYBE HE WAS A BOYFRIEND.
I GOT THE IMPRESSION
EMILY WAS ALONE.
I DON'T LIKE TO USE
THE TERM "SPINSTER,"
BUT THAT'S WHA THEY CALLED HER.
WELL, MY PLAN IS TO OPEN A
B&B,
SO I'VE STARTED
EXPERIMENTING
WITH BREAKFAST FOODS.
I SUSPEC YOU WILL DO WELL.
THANK YOU. IF I CAN EVER
GET THE HOUSE FIXED UP.
I WAS HOPING TO SELL
CROISSANTS AND SCONES
TO THE LOCAL RESTAURANTS,
JUST TO MAKE
A LITTLE EXTRA CASH,
BUT I CAN'T EVEN
GET AN APPOINTMENT.
MY NIECE WORKS
AT THE COFFEE SHOP.
LET ME SEE WHAT I CAN DO.
THANK YOU!
[BOTH CHUCKLING]
I'M FROM THE CITY.
I'M NOT USED TO MY NEIGHBORS
BEING FRIENDS.
I ALWAYS THOUGH THEY WERE THE SAME THING.
[]
[SIGHS QUIETLY]
YOU CAN DO THIS.
HMM.
OH, THAT'S LOVELY!
CROISSANTS AREN' REALLY OUR THING,
BUT WE COULD
GIVE IT A TRY.
YES!
OH!
I HAVEN' SEEN HIM BEFORE.
YEAH.
THERE ARE NO AVAILABLE MEN
IN THIS TOWN.
IF THEY HAVE A PAYCHECK
AND A PULSE,
THEY'RE ALREADY TAKEN.
[SIGHS]
WELL, I HAD A BOYFRIEND.
YOU KNOW, DARYL SEEMED
PERFECT ON PAPER.
HE WAS SMART,
HE WAS ATTRACTIVE.
I KIND OF THOUGH HE WAS THE ONE.
I DON'T MEAN TO PRY,
BUT WHAT HAPPENED?
I WANTED MORE
AND HE WASN'T READY.
YEAH, I MISS HIM SOMETIMES.
OR WHAT WE MIGHT HAVE BEEN,
YOU KNOW?
I WISH I HAD
SOMEONE I COULD MISS.
MAYBE YOU SHOULD CALL HIM.

STOP, STOP, STOP.
WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
I'M MOVING IN.
[SIGHS WEARILY]
YOU CANNOT JUST SHOW UP
LIKE THIS. WE HAD A DEAL.
THAT WAS BEFORE
MY LIFE BLEW UP.
YOU ARE LOOKING AT A FALL
GUY
IN A BOTCHED MERGER.
I DON'T EVEN KNOW
WHAT THAT MEANS.
IT MEANS THAT MY LEGENDARY
BOSS
JUST BLEW A BUSINESS DEAL,
AND I GOT BLAMED.
I WAS FIRED ON THE SPOT,
JUST LIKE THAT,
BEFORE I EVEN KNEW WHAT HI ME.
THAT--
THAT MUST HAVE BEEN VERY
HARD.
NOW LOOK AT ME.
I'M PERSONA NON GRATA
ON WALL STREET.
I'M SORRY
THAT YOU'RE HAVING A TOUGH
TIME,
BUT YOU ARE NOT "GRATA"
HERE.
JENNY, I HAVE NO PLACE TO
GO.
ALL RIGHT?
NOW, MY STOCKS ARE TIED UP
IN A BONUS I'M NEVER GONNA
SEE.
DO YOU KNOW THAT I ONLY HAVE
$2,643 IN MY SAVINGS
ACCOUNT.
I USED TO BLOW THA ON A SUIT!
ARE YOU DRUNK?
[GROANS]
NO, I'M NOT DRUNK.
I DON'T DRINK.
DULLS THE MIND.
I JUST-- I HAVEN'T SLEPT.
I'M JUST SO TIRED.
WHAT ABOUT YOUR FRIENDS
AND FAMILY?
IF I HAD ANOTHER PLACE TO
GO,
JENNY, I WOULDN'T BE HERE.
OKAY, BUT YOU CANNO MOVE IN HERE,
BECAUSE WE DON'T EVEN
KNOW EACH OTHER.
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
IT'S TEMPORARY.
AND TEMPORARY IS TOO LONG.
[GRUNTS]
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I OWN HALF THIS HOUSE. OKAY?
SO WHY DON'T YOU STAY
IN YOUR HALF
AND I'LL STAY IN MY HALF?
-RIGHT?
-YOU KNOW WHAT?
I DON'T MEAN TO BE RUDE,
BUT WE DON'T EXACTLY GE ALONG.
[LAUGHS]
WE'LL JUST AVOID EACH OTHER.
WHAT ABOUT THE KITCHEN?
IT'S MUTUAL TERRITORY.
RIGHT? WE BOTH GOT TO EAT.
WHAT ABOUT BEDROOMS?

I'LL GIVE YOU THAT--
IT'S PEACEFUL.
I CAN'T GE CELL PHONE RECEPTION.
YEAH.

WE COULD WE SHARE YOUR
LANDLINE?
I'M GOING TO NEED A PHONE,
OBVIOUSLY, TO FIND A JOB.
UH-HUH. THAT'S FINE.
WHAT DO WE HAVE HERE?
THEY'RE PEACH-AND-CRANBERRY
TARTS.
I'M EXPERIMENTING
WITH BREAKFASTS FOR THE B&B.
MM.
DO YOU WANT ONE?
WELL, I MEAN,
I, YOU KNOW--
AT THE RISK OF ENCOURAGING
YOUR B&B FANTASY,
I DON'T MIND IF I DO.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN, "FANTASY?"
WELL, I'M STILL PLANNING
ON SELLING THE PLACE.
[PASTRY CRUNCHES]
AH, MAN...
THOSE ARE GOOD.
WHAT DID YOU EXPECT?
I'M A CHEF.
AND YOU'RE ALSO REALLY GOOD
AT TAKING A COMPLIMENT.

LOOK, BUDDY...
I KNOW YOUR VALUE,

YOU'RE JUST DAMAGED GOODS.
HOW CAN YOU SAY THA TO ME, HARRY?
YOU KNOW ME. RIGHT?
I DID NOTHING WRONG.

THAT MUST BE ROUGH.
YEAH. UM... LISTEN.
I-- I'M GONNA GO FOR A RUN,
'CAUSE I WANNA BURN OFF
SOME OF THIS ANGST.
I REALLY NEED TO POLISH
THE HARDWOOD FLOORS.
WOULD YOU MIND MOVING

PRETTY IRRELEVANT ANYWAY.

ESPECIALLY PLUMBING I NEVER
WANTED IN THE FIRST PLACE!
WHAT ARE WE--
OH, I FORGOT.
WE CAN'T SELL
HALF THE HOUSE, RIGHT?
THIS PLACE IS NOT ME!
I BELONG IN WALL STREET,
NOT MAIN STREET.
YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENS WHEN
I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY

MY PLUMBING? I CALL A SUPER.
DO YOU UNDERSTAND THAT?
NOPE.

[GABBY BLEATS IN PANIC]
UH... YOU KNOW.
I DON'T KNOW,
SOMETIME NEXT YEAR?
[]
WHEW.
AH-HAH!
GO ON...
I DARE YOU--
TURN THE WATER ON.
[INHALES SHARPLY]
HMM...
[PIPES RATTLING LOUDLY]
[LOUDLY OVER THE RATTLE]:
HOW ABOUT THAT?
YOUR PLUMBING
IS SO...
MUSICAL.
FIGURED
YOU COULD SING ALONG
WHILE DOING THE DISHES.
[DING]
I FINALLY GO THE BRAIDED FLEX LINE
TO CONNECT TO THE ANGLE
STOP.
A CITY BOY
WHO SPEAKS PLUMBING?
WELL, IT'S "PLUMB OR
PERISH,"
RIGHT?
ISN'T THAT WHAT YOU SAID?
BESIDES, I GOT TO GE THIS HOUSE FIXED UP, MAN.
AND JENNY,
SHE WANTS TO TURN IT INTO A
B&B
AND BUY ME OUT,
WHICH IS FINE,
BUT I MEAN, I GOT TO
TURN THIS LEMON INTO CASH
QUICK.
YOU KNOW, LISTEN.
WE AGREED
TO PAINT THE HOUSE, RIGHT?
CAN'T AGREE ON A COLOR.
AS A MATTER OF FACT,
WE CAN'T AGREE ON ANYTHING.
SHE WANTS TO PAIN THE HOUSE YELLOW, TOMMY.
I WOULD PREFER SOMETHING
SIMPLE,
LIKE MAYBE A SUBTLE BLUE.
HERE YOU GO.
THE CROISSANTS ARE
SELLING REALLY WELL.
I JUST-- I COULD
REALLY USE THE MONEY.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
I WAS THINKING--
IT MIGHT HELP
BUILD MY REPUTATION.
THERE ARE JUST SO MANY B&BS
IN BUCKS COUNTY,
BUT THEY DON'T ALL
HAVE A PROFESSIONAL CHEF.
SO, UM...
TOMMY JUST GAVE ME
A BUNCH
OF COLOR SAMPLES.
MM. YEAH, WE'RE GONNA
PAINT THE HOUSE,
BUT WE CAN'T AGREE
ON A COLOR.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
WHICH ONE DO YOU PREFER?
OH--
A FRENETICALLY-CHIPPER
YELLOW...
VERSUS... A SUBTLE BLUE.
UH, A VERY DRAB AND
DEPRESSING,
WASHED-OUT BLUE.
UH...
WHY DON'T YOU
COMBINE THE TWO COLORS
AND PAINT IT GREEN?
HMM...
THAT'S THE COLOR OF MONEY.
LET'S HOPE
IT'S A GOOD OMEN.
THAT'S TRUE.
YOU KNOW, BUT I MEAN,
LIKE, A PALE GREEN.
YOU KNOW, LIKE A--
A SEAFOAM MINT--
SOMETHING THAT DOESN' COMPETE
WITH THE COLOR OF THE TREES.
RIGHT. OF COURSE, YEAH.
YEAH.
"NON-COMPETITIVE SEAFOAM
MINT."
I'LL SEE IF
HE HAS THAT COLOR.
GREAT!
OKAY.
OKAY.
YOU TWO MAKE
A VERY CUTE COUPLE.
NO!
OH, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO, NO.
WE ARE NOT A COUPLE.
NO. HE'S HOPEFULLY GETTING A
JOB
AND MOVING BACK TO NEW YORK.
HMM.
CAREFUL WHAT YOU WISH FOR.
SEE YOU LATER.
SORRY, GO AHEAD.
YOU, KNOW COMPROMISE IS A--
IT'S
A VERY PRETTY COLOR.
MM-HMM. I'M GLAD
WE CAN AGREE.
IT'S A GREAT COLOR.
[SHE SHRIEKS, HE GROANS]
[BOTH STARTING TO LAUGH]
WOW!
I JUST BOUGH THIS SHIRT!
SORRY, I THINK
YOU MISSED A SPOT.
OH, REALLY?
YOU'RE GONNA DO THAT?
-YEAH.
-I AM ARMED AND DANGEROUS.
CHECK THIS OUT.
OH, REALLY?
WHAT ARE YOU GOING
TO DO ABOUT THAT?
OKAY. YEAH.
YOU KNOW WHAT?
-WHAT?
-IT'S ON.
-IS IT ON?
-IT'S ON!
YOU'RE ABSURDLY CONTENT.
DRIVES ME INSANE.
AND YOU--
YOU'VE GOT A--
YOU'RE ALLERGIC
TO LIFE!
WHAT ARE YOU TALKING
ABOUT? I'M A REALIST.
YOU KNOW THAT?
I'M A REALIST!
YOU ARE THE GREEN--
PALE-GREEN FACE OF DOOM!
PAH!
THAT IS GREEN!
[SHRIEKING AND LAUGHING]
[YELPS]
WHOO-HOO!
I WIN!
OKAY. OKAY.
OKAY, OKAY.
[]
[BRIAN]:
THE SECTOR IS BURNING UP.
YOU GOTTA TRUST ME
ON THIS, ALL RIGHT--
THERE'S A PLAY TO BE MADE.
I GET IT.
THANKS FOR THE TIP.
HEY, GOTTA RUN
OFF TO A MEETING.
[BRIAN]: HEY!
WHOA-WHOA-WHOA-WHOA.
LOOK, HARRY,
I HEARD THAT, UM,
THERE MIGHT BE
AN OPENING AT J.P.
AH, IN YOUR DREAMS.
BUT I WILL LET YOU KNOW
IF ANYTHING REAL COMES UP.
-LOOK--
-[GABBY BLEATING]
WHAT WAS THAT?
GABBY!
KNOCK IT OFF, SWEETIE.
WHO'S GABBY?
UH, THAT WOULD BE THE GOAT.
THERE'S A GOA YOU KNOW WELL ENOUGH TO
NAME?
YEAH.
WE GOTTA GET YOU BACK
TO NEW YORK CITY.
[LINE RINGS, HEADSET BEEPS]
-SO W--
-[DIAL TONE BUZZING]
HELLO?
FANTASTIC.
WELL, I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING
FAIRLY WELL
UNTIL, OF COURSE,
GABBY INTERVENED.
SO HOW'S YOUR FRIEND HARRY?
HE LIKES TO THINK
THAT HE'S THE--
[HANGS PHONE UP]
...THE BIG SHO IN OUR RELATIONSHIP.
BUT I AM TWICE THE PLUMBER
HE'LL EVER BE, RIGHT?
OH, HO. HE MUST BE
A REALLY BAD PLUMBER.
OH, LET ME TELL YOU,
HE'S THE WORST ON WALL
STREET.
[JENNY LAUGHS]
[]
[]
NOW THIS IS STARTING
TO LOOK LIKE
THE KITCHEN IN MY HEAD.
YEP. STARTING
TO LOOK GOOD.
IT REALLY DOES.
CHERRY-AMARETTO SCONES.
YOU WANT ONE?
ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
PASS THIS UP?
THEY SMELL INCREDIBLE.
I WANT TO SELL THEM
AT THE COFFEE SHOP.
I MEAN, I GOT TO MAKE
MORE MONEY.
I'VE GONE THROUGH
HALF MY SAVINGS
AND THERE'S STILL SO MUCH
TO DO ON THE HOUSE.
YOU KNOW
WHAT YOU GOT TO DO?
YOU GOT TO THINK BIGGER.
JUST SLAP ON A LABEL ON
THESE
AND GO OUT THERE AND STAR TO ATTRACT SOME VENDORS.
WELL, A LABEL REQUIRES A
NAME.
I MEAN, DON'T YOU THINK
IT'S A LITTLE MUCH
FOR SOMETHING THAT'S
HOMEMADE?
NO. NOT AT ALL.
CALL IT WHAT IT IS--
"JENNY'S HOMEMADE."
OR WHAT ABOU "JENNY'S HOMEMADE
BREAKFAST"?
THAT WAY, IT TIES IN THE
B&B.
LOVE IT-- THAT'S PERFECT.
YOU SEE,
ALL YOU HAVE TO DO
IS GO TO ALL THE STORES
IN THE NEIGHBORING TOWNS.
RACK UP SOME NUMBERS,
AND I PROMISE YOU,
YOU WILL ATTRAC A DISTRIBUTOR.
SIMPLE.
YOU KNOW, MAYBE THAT MBA
WASN'T A TOTAL WASTE.
[CHUCKLES]
THANK YOU.
I HOPE NOT.
IT WAS VERY EXPENSIVE.
[LAUGHS]
-ALL RIGHT.
-BUT I'M NOT A SALESMAN.
LISTEN TO ME, OKAY?
YOU DON'T TAKE NO
FOR AN ANSWER--
YOU JUST DOUBLE DOWN
AND MAKE IT HAPPEN.
ALL RIGHT?
OKAY.
YOU'RE GONNA DO GREAT.
[CAR STARTS]
UH, HOLD ON!
JUST, UM--
FORGET EVERYTHING
I JUST SAID, ALL RIGHT?
JUST BE YOURSELF.
ALL RIGHT?
ALL RIGHT!
[CHUCKLES]
[]
THANK YOU. COME AGAIN.
I'M NOT INTO FRENCH PASTRY.
WHAT ABOUT IRISH?
I DO SCONES.
HI. DO YOU HAVE
ANY FOIE GRAS?
WE GOT CHOPPED LIVER.
IF YOU COULD JUST TRY A
SAMPLE.
NOT GONNA HAPPEN.
I SOLD AVON
TO PUT MYSELF THROUGH
COLLEGE.
MM!
THIS IS REALLY GOOD.
[JENNY]: THANK YOU.
LET'S GET SOME.
DONE.
HOW MUCH ARE THEY?
IS SHE YOUR SHILL?
SHE'S MY NEW BEST FRIEND.
ALL RIGHT, I'LL TRY
SOME OF YOUR FANCY PASTRIES.
DO YOU MAKE BLINTZES?
I DO NOW.
I'LL TAKE
A DOZEN OF EACH,
AND SEE WHAT SELLS.
PICK-UP ON SIX!
YOU KNOW...
I'M OPENING A B&B.
IF YOU'RE EVER IN DANFIELD,
BREAKFAST IS ON ME.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU.
[HUSHED]: YES!
[]
GOOD NEWS!
I GOT FOUR NEW CUSTOMERS.
ONE MORE STOP
AND I'LL BE HOME.
THAT'S GREAT!
YOU DID GOOD.
I'M PROUD OF YOU.
I'LL SEE YOU SOON.
WHOO!
[LAUGHS]
OKAY. THAT'S WEIRD.
THAT'S REALLY WEIRD.
[GABBY BLEATS]
SO I'VE BEEN
EXPERIMENTING
WITH CREPES.
I'VE GAINED FIVE POUNDS
SINCE YOU MOVED IN.
[LAUGHS] YOU KNOW,
I WAS HOPING I COULD PICK
SOME OF YOUR BLUEBERRIES,
'CAUSE FRESH MAKES
ALL THE DIFFERENCE.
YOU CAN PICK THEM
BY THE BUSHEL,
IF I CAN HAVE
MORE OF THESE CREPES.
YOU REALLY SHOULD
TRY HER SCONES, ALICE.
THEY'RE AMAZING.
YEAH, THEY'RE
SELLING REALLY WELL.
BRIAN LOOKS
AS PLEASED AS YOU DO.
WELL, MY ROAD TRIP
WAS HIS IDEA.
IT'S NICE TO SEE A YOUNG
COUPLE
PULLING FOR EACH OTHER.
OH, WE'RE--
WE'RE JUST FRIENDS.
CAN I GET YOU SOME COFFEE?
-SURE.
-GREAT.
YOUR PRESERVES
ARE DELICIOUS.
[PIPES RATTLING]
A SINGING SINK.
[TOGETHER]:
YOU SHOULD HEAR THE TOILET!
AFTER BREAKFAST,
WE CAN PICK BERRIES.
MAYBE I'LL WORK OFF
A CREPE OR TWO.
[CHUCKLES]
[PHONE RINGING]
HELLO?
[BRIAN]: HELLO?
[CLICK]
OKAY.
[DIALING]
[RINGING]
[SLOWER]: HELLO?
IS JENNY THERE?
[BRIAN]: UH, NO.
WHO ARE YOU?
BRIAN. WHO ARE YOU?
DARYL.
OKAY, DARYL.
ARE-- ARE YOU A CUSTOMER?
NO. I'M CALLING ABOU THE TRUFFLE-CUTTER.
SORRY. THE WHAT?
WHEN WILL JENNY BE HOME?
LIKE MAYBE IN AN HOUR OR SO?
WOULD YOU LIKE ME

OR--?
JUST TELL HER TO CALL ME.
[BRIAN]: OKAY.
[DIAL TONE BUZZING]
HEY. UH, LISTEN.
YOU GOT A PHONE CALL TODAY.
SOME GUY NAMED DARYL.
SOMETHING ABOU A RUFFLE CUTTER?
[LAUGHS]
IT'S TRUFFLE--
IT'S A FANCY MUSHROOM.
WHAT ELSE DID HE SAY?
JUST THA HE WANTED YOU TO CALL HIM.
OH.
[RINGING]
HELLO?
HEY.
I COULDN'T FIND
YOUR TRUFFLE-CUTTER.
OH, THAT'S OKAY.
WHO'S THE GUY
WHO ANSWERED THE PHONE?
OH, THAT'S-- THAT'S BRIAN.
HE OWNS HALF THE HOUSE.
HE LIVES THERE?
WE'RE NOT INVOLVED.
IT'S JUS A REAL-ESTATE THING.
[MUTTERS]: HMM.
"JUST A REAL-ESTATE THING."
I THINK ABOUT YOU ALL THE
TIME.
I MISS YOU, JENNY.
I MISS YOU, TOO.
[]
WELL, I'LL BE
HONEST WITH YOU.
IT'S LOOKING...
PRETTY NICE IN HERE,
ACTUALLY.
IT'S VERY
BED-AND-BREAKFASTY.
YEAH.
[GRUNTING]
WHAT'RE YOU DOING?
WHAT'S WRONG?
I THINK
THE WINDOW IS STUCK.
STEP ASIDE.
TIME FOR A MAN
TO TAKE CARE OF THIS.
[EXHALES COCKILY]
[GRUNTS INTENSELY]
OOH-KAY.
OH! [GRUNTING]
[CHUCKLES AWKWARDLY]
UH, I MEAN, OBVIOUSLY,
I'VE MASTERED PLUMBING,
IT'S TIME FOR ME TO...
TAKE A HARD LOOK
AT CARPENTRY.
[JENNY]: OH, I'M SO SORRY.
WHAT'RE YOU APOLOGIZING
TO THE WINDOW PANE FOR?
I'M THE ONE WHO JUS BLEW OUT A DISC.
'CAUSE I FEEL
REALLY BAD FOR IT.
OKAY.
HEY, SKIPPY!
HOW ARE YA?
TO BE HONEST WITH YOU,
I DON'T THINK
CARPENTRY'S MY THING.
DON'T GET DEFEATED
BY A STUBBORN WINDOW.
FURNITURE POLISH...
AND USE A PUTTY KNIFE.
ARE-- IS THERE ANYTHING
YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO DO?
NOT WHEN IT COMES TO A
HOUSE.
PEOPLE ARE HARDER
TO FIGURE OUT.
WOMEN, FOR INSTANCE,
THEY ARE A MYSTERY.
YEAH.
YEAH, NO, THEY--
PFFT.
SO HOW'S THA PRETTY MYSTERY, JENNY?
YEAH, JENNY'S-- YOU KNOW.
SHE'S, UH...
I THINK YOU HAVE
A LITTLE CRUSH.
IT'S COMPLICATED.
I THINK
SHE HAS A BOYFRIEND.
WHAT MAKES YOU SAY THAT?
WELL, COUPLE DAYS AGO,
SOME GUY CALLED AND...
SHE SEEMED, UH,
HAPPY TO HEAR FROM HIM.
IT WAS A PHONE CALL.
NOT A WEDDING.
TELL HER HOW YOU FEEL.
I DON'T KNOW HOW I FEEL.
WELL, FIGURE IT OU BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
[GATE BANGS]
THANKS, TOMMY.
SEE YOU SOON.
HE'S STILL
A DUCK OUT OF WATER.
[TRUCK RUMBLES TO LIFE]
HE'S TESTING
HIS WINGS.
[TRUCK RUMBLES OFF]
[EXHAUST BACKFIRING]
[CHUCKLING]
YEAH.
[]
YOU KNOW, I THINK I WANT TO
GET SOME PLANTERS FOR THE
PORCH.
SURE. I'M SURE
THEY'LL LOOK GORGEOUS.
YOU KNOW, I GOTTA BE
HONEST WITH YOU.
THESE POSTS ARE, LIKE,
A HUNDRED YEARS OLD,
'CAUSE--
-[SNAP]
-OH!
[CRASH, THUD]
[GASP]
[GROANING] OH!
ARE YOU OKAY?
OH, I THINK
I SPRAINED MY--
-OW! OOH!
-SORRY!
OH, NO, I'M FINE,
I JUST THINK
I SPRAINED SOMETHING.
THIS ISN'T OVER,
YOU AND I.
OH, YOU THINK
IT'S FUNNY, HUH?
[HE BLEATS]
SORRY.
IN MY NIGHTMARES.
[MOCKS BLEATING]
FINALLY!
STURDY AS A ROCK.
AND PERFECTLY SYMMETRICAL,
TOO.
THAT IS,
IF YOU MOVE YOUR HEAD LIKE
THAT.
YEP. THAT'S THE PRETTIES RAILING I'VE EVER SEEN.
ISN'T IT?
I MEAN, YOU KNOW,
IT'S NOT BAD.
-HERE.
-OH, THANK YOU.
YOU KNOW,
EMILY SAT ON THIS SAME
SWING,
SHE LOOKED
AT THOSE SAME STARS.
YEAH, UNFORTUNATELY,
STARS ARE HARD TO SEE
AT NIGHT IN THE CITY.
YOU'VE CHANGED.
REALLY?
THAT A GOOD THING?
YOU TELL ME.
[EXHALES DEEPLY]
MAYBE SO.
SO I'VE SENT EVERY RESUME
TO EVERYBODY I KNOW
ON WALL STREET.
AND NOT EVEN A NIBBLE.
NOT ONE.
WELL, EXCEPT FOR GABBY.
OH! YOU SEE THAT?
ALL RIGHT.
I GUESS IT'S TIME
FOR A LITTLE CARPENTRY.
I'M GONNA GO GE MY TRUSTY SAW.
[QUIETLY, TO TABLE]:
I AM SO SORRY.
PLEASE BE CAREFUL.
I'LL BE FINE.
I'M ACTUALLY MORE
WORRIED ABOUT THE TABLE.
[THUMP]
[CHUCKLES] OOH!
I'M AFRAID THAT CARPENTRY
MAY NOT BE MY CALLING.
I DON'T MIND THE WOBBLE.
REALLY?
WELL, UNFORTUNATELY,
I HAVE TOSSED IN
MY PINSTRIPE SUIT FOR A
TOOLBOX,
AND NEITHER ONE OF THEM
FITS.
WELL, THE TOOLBOX GIVES YOU
THAT "RUGGED REPAIRMAN"
LOOK.
JUST DON'T OPEN IT.
[CHUCKLES]
ALL RIGHT, LET ME TRY
THIS ONE MORE TIME, OKAY?
WHOA! JUST HOLD IT STEADY.
IF IT GETS ANY LOWER,
WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO
SIT ON THE FLOOR.
[BOTH LAUGHING]
I WILL ADMIT,
I'M HAVING
A VERY GOOD TIME.
AND, UH...
I DIDN'T KNOW I WOULD EVER
KNOW HOW TO DO THAT.
SO THANK YOU.
SURE.
[GABBY BLEATS]
GABBY! COME ON.
TAKE IT EASY.
IT'S JUST A CAR.
HEY.
IS JENNY HERE?
YOU MUST BE... DARYL?
BRIAN?
HEY. NICE TO FINALLY MEE YOU.
OH. SORRY
ABOUT THAT. HERE.
JUST USE THAT.
IS, UH,
IS JENNY EXPECTING YOU?
[BRIAN CALLS OUT]:
HEY!
LOOK WHO,
UH, WHO'S HERE.
HI!
IT'S SO GOOD TO SEE YOU.
[AWKWARD CHUCKLE]
OH, I'LL GET--
AFTER YOU.
HI!
OH.
COME ON IN.
OKAY.
[BLEATS QUIETLY]
YEAH. COULDN'T AGREE MORE.
I BROUGHT YOU SOMETHING.
I FINALLY FOUND IT.
THIS IS SO SWEET,
BUT THIS ISN' MY TRUFFLE-CUTTER.
I WANTED AN EXCUSE TO SEE
YOU,
SO I BOUGHT YOU A NEW ONE.
DARYL, YOU DIDN' NEED AN EXCUSE.
I'LL BE HONEST,
WHEN I HEARD ANOTHER MAN
ANSWERING THE PHONE...
I WAS JEALOUS.
BRIAN, UH...
HE'S A HANDYMAN BY TRADE?
WHEN HE'S NOT WORKING
ON WALL STREET.
AND THERE'S NOTHING
BETWEEN YOU GUYS?
JUST THE HOUSE.
SEPARATE BEDROOMS?
SEPARATE EVERYTHING.
WE SPLIT THE HOUSE IN HALF.
[RELIEVED CHUCKLE]
AH, WELL, HE SEEMS
LIKE A NICE ENOUGH GUY.
YEAH, HE'S BECOME
A GOOD FRIEND.
MM.
WELL...
IT'S, UH...
IT'S NICE.
I'LL CALL YOU.
I'D LIKE THAT.
[]
AH, HE SEEMS LIKE A NICE
GUY.
YEAH, HE SAID
THE SAME THING ABOUT YOU.
REALLY?
YEAH.
SO WHAT, IS HE YOUR
BOYFRIEND
OR SOMETHING?
HE WAS, BUT...
HE GOT THIS NEW JOB,
AND HE TRAVELS SO MUCH.
I MOVED HERE, SO...
I DON'T REALLY KNOW
WHAT WE ARE ANYMORE.
[]
[DING]
TURNS OU THAT DARYL IS HER
EX-BOYFRIEND.
EXCEPT HE DOESN' SEEM SO "EX" TO ME.
I'VE GOT AN EX-WIFE.
GLORIA.
I AIN'T OVER HER,
AND IT'S BEEN...
THREE YEARS.
RIGHT. ANYWAY.
HE JUST SHOWS UP UNANNOUNCED
IN HIS BROOKS BROTHERS SUI AND HIS BMW.
HAS HE NO DECENCY?
GLORIA
GOT THE HOUSE,
THE DOG,
THE BIG-SCREEN TV.
I MEAN, THE ONLY THING
SHE DIDN'T GE WAS ME.
UH...
SO, DARYL GOES OVER TO JENNY
AND SAYS "NICE GUY, HE'S
NICE."
BUT WE BOTH KNOW THAT WITH
GUYS
IT'S CODE FOR "BORING."
COULD BE CODE
FOR "TALKS TOO MUCH."
LOOK, TOMMY.
WHAT DOES HE HAVE
THAT I DON'T HAVE?
MONEY. CAR.
THE WAY I SEE IT,
YOU GOT TWO CHOICES.
OH, THIS SHOULD BE GOOD.
ENLIGHTEN US,
RUSTY.
MARRY THIS GIRL!
RIGHT NOW,
JUST HIT HER WITH THE RING.
[POPS HIS LIPS]
RUSTY,
WE HAVEN'T EVEN KISSED.
WELL, THAT'S WHY
SHE THINKS YOU'RE BORING.
IT'S COMPLICATED!
ARE YOU AMISH OR SOMETHING?
WHAT WAS THE OTHER CHOICE?
I FORGET.
JUST GIVE ME A MINUTE.
[EXHALES]
NOPE. IT'S GONE.
AND IT WAS A GOOD ONE, TOO.
HOW DO YOU KNOW,
IF YOU CAN'T REMEMBER IT?
NOW YOU SOUND LIKE GLORIA.
SHE WAS MEANER THAN A SNAKE,
BUT...
TSK, THAT GIRL COULD COOK.
MM!
JENNY IS
AN INCREDIBLE COOK.
YOU'D BETTER GET A PRENUP.
[SIGHS]
-HEY!
-HEY.
-I'M KIND OF WORRIED.
-WHAT'S WRONG?
I CAN'T FIND
GABBY ANYWHERE.
WELL, I MEAN,
SOMETIMES,
SHE FOLLOWS ME
WHEN I GO FOR MY RUN.
I MEAN, MAYBE
SHE WENT ON HER OWN.
CAN WE HAVE A LOOK?
ABSOLUTELY.
LET'S TRY THE TRAIL.
COME ON.
[BRIAN]: GABBY!
[JENNY]: GABBY!
WHERE ARE YOU?
GABBY!
[OVERLAPPING]:
GABBY! GABBY!
HOW DID I GE SO ATTACHED TO A GOAT?
[BLEATING]
GABBY?
HEY...
HEY, GIRL.
[JENNY]: IS SHE HURT?
ARE YOU OKAY?
WHAT'S WRONG?
WHAT'S WRONG WITH HER?
I HAVE NO IDEA.
[]
[JENNY]: SHE'S BEEN
LIKE THIS FOR HOURS.
YEAH, THERE'S OBVIOUSLY
SOMETHING TERRIBLY WRONG.
THERE'S NO NEED
FOR CONCERN.
JUST LET NATURE
TAKE ITS COURSE.
WHAT DO YOU MEAN?
WELL, SHE'S
ABOUT TO HAVE KIDS--
THAT'S WHAT THEY CALL
BABY GOATS.
SHE'S-- SHE'S PREGNANT?
AND KIDS USUALLY
ARRIVE IN PAIRS.
WE'RE GOING TO HAVE TWINS?
-WHAT?
-OH! DID YA HEAR THAT? HUH?
HUH? DID YA HEAR THAT?
I CAN SEE SHE'S IN GOOD
HANDS.
YOU'RE GONNA
BE A MAMA!
[FUSSING]: HEY... HI...
AW, WHAT SHOULD
WE NAME THE KIDS?
UH... HOW IS
"BONNIE AND CLYDE"?
OH, NO. NO.
THEY'RE TOO CUTE
FOR A LIFE OF CRIME.
WE NEED SOMETHING MORE
CHEERFUL.
LIKE, UH...
OH! LIKE "LUCY" AND "RICKY."
LUCY AND RICKY...
OKAY. I LIKE THAT.
WHAT DO YOU SAY...?
WE SHOW LUCY AND RICKY
THE GREAT OUTDOORS?
WANT TO GO OUTSIDE?
WANNA GO OUTSIDE?
-[KID BLEATS]
-YEAH?
[BLEATING]
[CHUCKLES] IS THA LUCY OR RICKY?
[BRIAN LAUGHS]
THAT WOULD BE LUCY.
THEY'RE SO CUTE!
OH, AND I AM SO TIRED.
WHY DON'T YOU GO IN
AND GET SOME SLEEP?
YOU SHOULD, TOO.
I WILL.
BUT FIRST, I'M GONNA
PUT 'EM IN THE BARN.
[GROANS WEARILY]
I GOTCHA, I GOTCHA.
ATTAGIRL.
COME ON, COME ON.
YEAH. I LIKE HIM, TOO.
THE INSPECTION FOR THE B&B
IS IN THREE WEEKS,
AND THIS KITCHEN IS A WRECK.
YOU KNOW WHAT I WAS
THINKING?
WHAT IF WE TURN
THAT STORAGE CLOSE INTO A PANTRY?
SURE. YEAH.
WE COULD DO THAT.
[SANDPAPER SCRAPING LOUDLY]
[]
I GOTTA GET SOME MORE S--
[]
I SHOULD GO
CHECK ON THE KIDS.
YEAH. ACTUALLY,
I NEED SOME MORE SANDPAPER.
GO AHEAD.
NO. AFTER YOU.
[]
SO I'M GOING TO GO
FIX THE LIGHT ON THE PORCH
SO WE CAN SEE
THE KIDS AT NIGHT, OKAY?
I'D RATHER JUST IMAGINE
THEM.
OH, YE OF LITTLE FAITH.
[ZAP]
[JENNY STARTS LAUGHING]
[BRIAN]:
HEY! I HEARD THAT!
[JENNY]: GOOD!
[BRIAN]: AW.
THIS RISOTTO'S AMAZING.
CONSIDERING
I MADE IT IN THE DARK.
WELL, I GOT TO TELL YOU,
YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY
OPEN UP A RESTAURANT.
I AM!
IT'S CALLED A B&B.
YEAH, BUT YOU SHOULDN' LIMIT YOURSELF
JUST TO BREAKFAST.
THINK BIGGER--
BED... AND BREAKFAST...
AND DINNER.
SO B-AND-B-AND-D?
MM-HMM.
YEAH, I JUST...
I LOVE COOKING.
I MEAN, I ALWAYS HAVE,
SINCE I WAS A KID.
WELL...
I WAS ALWAYS INTO INVESTING
AS A KID.
BORING, I KNOW.
OTHER KIDS WERE OU PLAYING HIDE-AND-SEEK,
AND I WAS LOCKED IN MY ROOM.
PLAYING STOCKS-AND-BONDS.
DAD WAS A BROKER,
SO I LEARNED THE LANGUAGE
FROM HIM.
BUT IT DIDN'T LAST THA LONG.
HE TOOK OFF
WHEN I WAS PRETTY YOUNG.
MOM ENDED UP REMARRYING--
ANOTHER SUIT.
THEY SHIPPED ME
OFF TO PREP SCHOOL,
AND THEN, OF COURSE,
WALL STREET.
NEVER LOOKED BACK.
AND THEN A HOUSE
IN BUCKS COUNTY CAME ALONG?
YEAH. I GOTTA TELL YOU--
THAT REALLY
THREW ME OFF-COURSE.
[CHUCKLES]
ARE YOU SORRY ABOUT THAT?
NOT TONIGHT.
[RAIN RUSHING,
WIND BREEZING]
FURNITURE POLISH
AND A PUTTY KNIFE.
WELL DONE.
OH, AT THE RISK
OF THE HOUSE BURNING DOWN,
UM, DO YOU THINK
MAYBE YOU COULD
GET WOOD STOVE GOING?
OF COURSE.
YOU CAN'T HAVE A B&B&D
WITHOUT A WOOD STOVE, RIGHT?
OH, AND SOME ELECTRICITY
WOULD BE NICE.
OF COURSE.
I COULDN'T AGREE MORE.
[]
I HAD A REALLY
GOOD TIME.
YEAH. I DID, TOO.
DINNER WAS...
FANTASTIC.
I'M GLAD.
WELL, GOODNIGHT.
[LAUGHS]
SWEET DREAMS.

[SIGHS HEAVILY]
[RAIN BATTERING WINDOWS]
[WATER DRIPPING]
YOU'VE BEEN
LYING AWAKE ALL NIGHT...
OH.
[SIGHS]
YOUR HEAD'S BEEN RUNNING
AROUND THROUGH THE STARS...
[WATER DRIPPING]
IT'S A WONDERFUL NIGHT...
IS IT RAINING
IN YOUR ROOM?
YEAH. YOU?
YEAH. MINE TOO.
HEY, I'M JUST GONNA GO

MAKE SURE THEY'RE ALL RIGHT.
ARE YOU OKAY?
I'M FINE.
YOU SEE IT'S ALL RIGH HOLD ME CLOSE
I'LL BE THERE SOON
HOLD ME IN YOUR HEART...
I'M SORRY...

I-I'M REALLY LATE,
I HAVE SO MANY DELIVERIES.
SURE.
WE'LL TALK LATER.
WE'LL TALK
WHEN YOU GET BACK.
-OKAY.
-OKAY.
HERE, I'LL HELP YOU.
YOU IN?
-YEAH.
-ALL RIGHT.
[ENGINE STARTS]
[PHONE RINGS]
HELLO.
HEY, BRIAN.
I GOT SOME REALLY BIG NEWS.
ARE YOU SITTING DOWN?
I GOT A PROMOTION,
AND IT LEFT A VACUUM
IN THE DEPARTMENT,
AND I PITCHED THEM
ON YOU.
SO WHAT ARE YOU SAYING?
IS THIS IS A JOB OFFER?
I'D BE YOUR BOSS,
BUT IT'S OKAY--
IT'S OFFSET BY
THE BONUS AND THE PERKS.
BRIAN?
I TOLD YOU TO SIT DOWN.
DID YOU PASS OUT?
NO. UM-...
THANK YOU, HARRY.
THAT'S BETTER.
BUT I'M GOING TO
HAVE TO THINK ABOUT IT.
WHAT IS THERE TO THINK
ABOUT?
IT WOULD BE REALLY HARD
FOR ME TO LEAVE JENNY.
THE GIRL
THAT CAME WITH THE HOUSE?
YEAH. THE GIRL THAT CAME
WITH--
WELL, IT'S NOT JUST ABOU HER.
OR MAYBE IT IS.
I DON'T-- LOOK.
I LIKE WHO
I AM HERE, HARRY.
WELL, NOW YOU'RE SCARING ME.
I'M SCARING MYSELF!
CAN I ASK YOU SOMETHING?
DO YOU EVER THINK
THAT THERE'S THINGS OU THERE
THAT ARE FAR MORE IMPORTAN THAN JUST MAKING MONEY?
[CONFUSED CHUCKLE]
I WENT OU ON A LIMB FOR YOU.
AND I UNDERSTAND THAT,
AND I APPRECIATE THAT.
WELL, UNDERSTAND
THAT I'M GONNA NEED AN

MY BOSS IS ABOUT TO RETIRE.
MAYBE I SHOULD TRY
AND BUY THE COFFEE SHOP.
-YEAH! GO FOR IT.

THAT'S MORE
ENERGY-EFFICIENT.
PREFERABLY
FROM THIS CENTURY.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA SALUTE,
ARE YOU?
THIS IS JUST AN INSPECTION.
YES, SIR.

MM.
OH, YOU KNOW, THE SINK

I MEAN, I DRINK I EVERY DAY,
AND I'M GREAT.

EMILY WAS A GENTLE SOUL.
VERY SHY.

NOBODY KNEW IT BUT ME.
DID THEY BREAK UP?
I MEAN, WHAT HAPPENED?
LESTER DIED DURING THE WAR.
OH, I'M SO SORRY.
WELL, THEY HAD TO KEEP
THEIR ROMANCE SECRET.
THEY WERE BOTH VERY YOUNG,
AND HER DADDY WAS, UH...

[SCOFFS BITTERLY]
WHEN LESTER DIED,
EMILY HAD TO HIDE HER GRIEF.
SHE KEPT IT INSIDE,
AND IT-IT FESTERED THERE.
HER BROKEN HEAR TURNED TO STONE.
POOR EMILY.
MM.
BETTER TO HAVE LOVED AND
LOST,
I SUPPOSE.
YEAH, IT'S...

WHEN PEOPLE WHO OUGH TO BE TOGETHER
AIN'T TOGETHER.
