Shane : You okay ?
Nancy : That guy.
Shane : Yep
Nancy : Was I like that ? A douche ? A-a gouge-y clown douche ?
Shane : Well, at least your customers weren’t sick.
Nancy : Sickness is relative. I think I was a bad person. I don’t want to be like that any more.
Shane : Okay good for you.
Nancy : No, no. Good for all of us. We’re not gonna be like that any more. That was the « before » Botwins. Now… We are the « after » Botwins. Like those people on the weight-loss ads. « Before »… Unhappy. « Now » Lovely and better dressed… with our hair done. Cause we are… we are feeling good about ourselves, right ? You notice how they are ever smiling in the « after » photos ? The smiling makes a big difference. Let me see you smile,honey. Come on. Really ?

Silas : You are moving. Is that a safe word I heard ?
Woman : No. Just one thing and I’ll stop. Two. I prefer your hair dark. Why can’t you dye it again ? Second… you need to talk to your uncles. They come to the loft and take from the supply. And whit… Is he even related to you ?
Silas : Am I here to talk about business ? No, I am no here to talk about business.
Woman : When is your mother coming back ? I need her help. I’m about to run out of supply, and I can’t… Ohh !
Silas : You done ?
Woman : I’m not sure.
Silas : You think you can stay quiet ?
Woman : Probably not.
Silas : Hello ? Sure ? When do you need it ? I can be there in… Two hours. By mom.
Girl : Obstacle course again.
Shane : He said 85%, right ?
Girl : Sorry ?
Shane : In class. Sergeant Salzberg said 85% of all male juvenile offenders come from fatherless home.
Girl : Not too surprising, right ? Your father dies, you go off the rails. You punish everybody any way you can.
Shane : You’ve given this some thought.
Girl : Dead father, psych major, expert on the topic.
Shane : But you are not out the rails. You are here and I’m here and we are both in the « dead daddy » club.
Girl : Well, look at that… Kindred spirits. Maybe we are just two sleeper cells of rage waiting to explode, and this our way to get the gun.
Shane : You’re dark.
Girl : You talking shit about my skin tone now ?
Shane : Uh no, I did not, I just..
Girl : Fucking with uou. Come on. Let’s do this stupid obstacle course.
Nancy : We should have made sugar. Everyone like sugar cookies.

Nancy : We are not taking any money for them.
Silas : Huh ?
Nancy : It’s not right to profit from pain,honey. We’re not that kind of people. My mother worked in... in gift wrap. At the Hudson’s on woodward, downton Detroit. All of our gifts had to prepare at the Hudson’s way. Perfect. Christmas morning killed her to see us tear them all apart. She actually cried. Perfect.
Silas : We are at least gonna need to cover our costs.
Nancy : Honey, you are thinking like « before » Silas. Don’t be « before » Silas. That was the past. That was the prologue. Come here. Smile. Here, help me wrap. I’ll teach you the Hudson’s curl.
Silas : Was she nice ?
Nancy : My mother ? No.
Andy : Whoa ! Hey, you can clean up nice. Are those Nancy’s shoes and… dress ?
Jill : Mm-hmm. She’s gonna be home soon. I got to wear it while I still can. It look okay ?
Andy : More than okay. Why so, you know, fancy ?
Jill : It’s called shoving it in his face. I didn’t wither on the vine. I’m thriving.
Andy : Good logic. Smart. Might gain you some leverage with the custody ? Cross your legs a lot during dinner slowly, and dangle the shoe off your foot. No, that might be too much. Is he taking you somewhere good ?
Jill : Chinese. I’m gonna have everything on the menu. I will order extra ad bring some home. What do you want ?
Andy : Sesame noodles.
Jill : Oh, yes. Good call on the noodles. Those will be great tomorrow. I won’t be late.
Andy : Okay. Remember… Afree to nothing just hear the man out, be kind and respectful, and think of the kids. And cross your legs a lot. Good Luck.
Clown : You are out of your league. Way the fuck out of your league. Back off !
Woman : Whan will they be satisfied ? Animals.
Shayla : I always thought we’d stick around long enough to see the « foil-age ».
Taylor : It’s not « foil-age ». It’s « foliage ».
Andy : What are you girls doing ?
Taylor : Packing up. Going home.
Andy : Home ? Why ?
Shayla : Because they are getting back together. This is what happens… He gets control-freaky, and she gets pissed off and leaves. We live somewhere else for a while.
Taylor : It was Sausalito last time. She finds… A distraction.
Shayla : Rick. Rick with the houseboat. Dad gives her some time. A couple months. Then they have dinner.
Taylor : He apologizes. She remembers what she likes about him.
Shayla : He’s stable. He’s a good breadwinner. He talks about all the work he’s going to do one the house. She got her painting studio out of it last time.
Taylor : She sits us down and tells us we’re going home.
Andy : Did she say that ? She said you were going home ?
Taylor : No yet. She will. We’re getting a jump start.
Andy : Okay, this is not gonna happen at all. That’s is just… I just need to make a call. I’ll call.
Phone : Hi it’s Jill. Leave a message.
Andy : It’s probably in her bag. She can’t hear it if it’s in her bag. ‘Cause it’s zipped up, it’s muffled under the…
Clown : Ooh.
Nurse : Ooh. Yeah.
Nancy : So sorry to interrupt. Look super-erotic. Smells like… onions, thought. Uh. I don’t think we’ve met. Post road shooting. Maybe you’ve heard of me ? My family ? Costa Nostra.
Nurse : I heard things.
Nancy : Maybe you should enlighten drug-pusher bozo here about who he’s threatening.
Nusre : I need to get back work.
Nancy : Now that we’re alone… I’ll speak frankly. I come from a long line of people who can make other people disappear, as if by magic.
Clown : I didn’t know.
Nancy : No, you didn’t. And here I am, trying to live a better life and do the right thing and you bring all this negative shit into it. I don’t want any negative shit. I’ve had way to much of it already. Here’s what’s gonna happen. From now on, people in pain… They don’t pay. Hospital workers, nurses… I don’t care. Gouge them. But the patients… They are your charity. Price of business. I’m leaving here tomorrow, but I’ll back in a week to check on you. So don’t fuck around to see what you can get away with. Okay ?
Clown : Yeah, okay.
Nancy : You’ve got a second chance to be a better person. Use it okay ?
Jill : I just… I just want another.
Scott : Yeah, Yeah okay.
Jill : Hello ? Um, uno mas ? Ichi ? Por favor ?
Scott : I’m just gonna read it. « Jill, I come to you today a clean slate… Tabula Rasa. »
Jill : Mmm.
Scott : Empty, but for one desire… To start fresh. I hold no ill will for the choices you made, no grudges, no anger ».
Jill : Mmm. So good.
Scott : « We walked our paths… Sometimes difficult and hazardous… »
Jill : Mm-hmmm.
Scott : « And those paths led us here ».
Jill : Mmm. Oh, thank you so much.
Scott : Thank you.
Jill : Ahh. Okay, go ahead.
Scott : « I want you to know I regret who I once was and what i allowed our lives to become. I was a uh.. »
Jill : Fuck head.
Scott : A fuck head yes. « I’m here today to ask you to release your assumptions from the past and choose, instead, to be like the cells of all continually regenerating living beings who cannot but exist inside change. » « unfolding, unfolding. Jill, I m not here to reclaim our old lives but to redefine them, to toss out the calcified remains of the past and embrace our vital energy. Yours,mine… for our sakes, for our beautiful family’s sake. You have my vow that I will no longer attempt to control,lessen, or diminish who you are or what you’ll be but to embrace it, entire. This word is my throt.
Jill : Your what ?
Scott : Troth. T-H-R-O-T-H.
Jill : Why did you come here ?
Andy : I’m not a distraction. I’m not Rick with the houseboat.
Jill : You’re jealous ?
Andy : No, yeah. You can’t go. The girls can’t go. Nobody can go. This isn’t just fucking. This is something else.
Woman : Sounds like fucking to me. This is the ladies room.
Scott : I no longer choose to embrace all that you are,Jill, or will be. You no longer have my fucking troth ! People don’t change. It’s bullshit ! Six months in India down the fucking Ganges !
Woman : By.
Nancy : Oh. Oh goodbye. Good luck. Hey. Thank you. Oh, stop. Stop,Stop. Sweetie,say thank you to the clown. He is the one who made you all the balloon animals.
Steevy : Thank you, Mr.Clown.
Nancy : Good boy. Okay. See you later.
Man : Bye, Good Luck.
