1
00:00:00,412 --> 00:00:02,903
- Are you in for life?
- It looks like it.
2
00:00:03,082 --> 00:00:05,448
- How long you been here?
- Almost a month.
3
00:00:05,618 --> 00:00:09,281
- Well, I feel like I've been here 10 years.
- Seems to agree with you.
4
00:00:10,189 --> 00:00:12,089
- Do you like boys?
- I love them.
5
00:00:12,258 --> 00:00:14,021
Yeah?
6
00:00:14,660 --> 00:00:17,720
Come with me.
There's something I wanna try.
7
00:00:31,010 --> 00:00:34,537
- All my life I've wanted to do that.
- Oh, poor little city boy.
8
00:00:35,981 --> 00:00:37,710
Hey, you know something?
9
00:00:37,883 --> 00:00:39,908
I never really understood...
10
00:00:40,686 --> 00:00:42,916
...the reason for haystacks before.
- Yeah.
11
00:00:43,088 --> 00:00:46,148
That crazy smell gives us
all those problems we hear about.
12
00:00:46,325 --> 00:00:48,384
- And the softness.
- Yeah.
13
00:00:50,329 --> 00:00:55,096
You know, I can't remember us
ever feeling like this before.
14
00:00:55,467 --> 00:00:58,402
- Except after a couple of drinks.
- Yeah.
15
00:00:58,637 --> 00:01:00,662
Was the other better?
16
00:01:02,074 --> 00:01:04,304
Can't see how it would be.
17
00:01:16,288 --> 00:01:18,256
Caught you drinking.
18
00:01:18,490 --> 00:01:22,085
No harm in one beer, Joe.
Or two or three.
19
00:01:22,261 --> 00:01:24,252
Matter of how much, huh?
20
00:01:25,731 --> 00:01:29,326
- Sanders says he'll pay you Monday.
- With Sanders it's always Monday.
21
00:01:29,501 --> 00:01:30,832
- And then Friday.
- Yeah.
22
00:01:31,003 --> 00:01:32,265
Hey.
23
00:01:32,438 --> 00:01:36,306
Remember Mrs. Michel, where you
delivered those roses about a month ago?
24
00:01:36,475 --> 00:01:40,172
Two months ago exactly.
My second day as a trusty.
25
00:01:40,346 --> 00:01:42,610
She phoned in a big order
this afternoon.
26
00:01:42,781 --> 00:01:46,410
Said she remembered us because of
the nice man who delivered the roses.
27
00:01:46,585 --> 00:01:50,043
All part of public relations, Pop.
Kirs upstairs?
28
00:01:50,889 --> 00:01:52,618
Joe.
29
00:01:53,292 --> 00:01:55,522
You want a beer?
30
00:01:56,996 --> 00:01:59,226
You're starting to trust me again.
31
00:02:00,833 --> 00:02:03,802
Well, thanks anyway, Pop.
32
00:02:11,910 --> 00:02:13,707
Hi-ho!
33
00:02:18,484 --> 00:02:20,816
A tasty little neck.
34
00:02:20,986 --> 00:02:24,012
- I'm glad you like it. Have some more.
- No, not right now.
35
00:02:24,189 --> 00:02:27,420
My, we have been good the last couple
of months. Just perfect.
36
00:02:27,593 --> 00:02:29,356
- We sure have.
- Much too good.
37
00:02:29,528 --> 00:02:34,363
Because you are much too beautiful
to be so good, and I was thinking...
38
00:02:34,533 --> 00:02:39,971
...being good is better than being bad, yes?
But being too good is worse than death.
39
00:02:40,139 --> 00:02:44,599
- There are times when I agree with you.
- Well, how would you like to spice up...
40
00:02:44,810 --> 00:02:49,713
...your exemplary life by just
slipping a teeny-weeny bit?
41
00:02:49,882 --> 00:02:54,376
- A teeny-weeny bit?
- Just a modicum, a jot, a minim.
42
00:02:54,753 --> 00:02:56,516
A drop?
43
00:02:56,688 --> 00:03:00,488
- Where is it?
- No, it all starts with a striptease.
44
00:03:03,495 --> 00:03:07,454
Oh, well, I thought you were talking
about something more tangible.
45
00:03:07,633 --> 00:03:10,295
Please, you're interrupting a performance.
46
00:03:24,983 --> 00:03:26,780
Joe!
47
00:03:29,588 --> 00:03:31,579
Oh, you're a genius!
48
00:03:31,757 --> 00:03:33,247
Nothing at all, my dear.
49
00:03:33,425 --> 00:03:37,691
Of course, getting this tape off
is gonna be a major operation.
50
00:03:37,863 --> 00:03:40,263
Okay, now, here we go. Fast, right?
51
00:03:45,804 --> 00:03:47,863
Next time I do this...
52
00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:50,065
...I'm gonna shave my legs.
53
00:03:53,078 --> 00:03:55,137
- No, Joe, we can't.
- What do you mean?
54
00:03:55,314 --> 00:03:58,806
- It'll ruin everything.
- Now, just a darn minute, lady.
55
00:03:58,984 --> 00:04:01,248
I'm not suggesting an all-out orgy.
56
00:04:01,420 --> 00:04:04,583
I think we've learned better than that,
I hope and trust.
57
00:04:04,823 --> 00:04:07,291
We've been working hard.
58
00:04:07,459 --> 00:04:11,987
Behaving ourselves. Just a wee little drop
in the privacy of our own little room...
59
00:04:12,164 --> 00:04:14,928
...isn't gonna hurt us.
Who's to know?
60
00:04:15,100 --> 00:04:19,002
We just lie back in bed like civilized people
and sip it through a straw.
61
00:04:19,171 --> 00:04:21,332
May I expect your cooperation?
62
00:04:21,507 --> 00:04:26,376
Well, now, how could I not vote
for someone who dances so divinely?
63
00:04:28,147 --> 00:04:29,637
Hold on.
64
00:04:32,584 --> 00:04:33,915
Twinsies.
65
00:04:34,086 --> 00:04:37,749
And there is another.
In the greenhouse.
66
00:04:37,923 --> 00:04:42,485
It is in the fourth pot
and the fifth table...
67
00:04:43,262 --> 00:04:46,754
Fourth pot, third table,
fifth row. Yeah, that's it.
68
00:04:46,932 --> 00:04:49,799
Fourth pot, third table,
fifth row. Four, five, three.
69
00:04:49,968 --> 00:04:55,201
Now, remember the combination, because
if I die before I wake, that's your legacy.
70
00:05:01,213 --> 00:05:05,377
- You are depraved.
- Yeah, flattery will get you everywhere.
71
00:05:05,551 --> 00:05:07,314
Magic time.
72
00:05:32,010 --> 00:05:33,671
Here.
73
00:05:35,781 --> 00:05:37,908
- Step on it.
- What?
74
00:05:45,757 --> 00:05:47,452
Here.
75
00:06:17,122 --> 00:06:18,817
Kirsty.
76
00:06:20,125 --> 00:06:22,025
Kirsty?
77
00:06:26,298 --> 00:06:28,766
Must have had a nightmare.
78
00:06:30,402 --> 00:06:32,370
You all right?
79
00:06:33,972 --> 00:06:36,566
I'm fine, Daddy, just go back to bed.
80
00:06:52,124 --> 00:06:54,319
Come up now.
81
00:06:55,627 --> 00:06:57,857
We ain't fighting.
82
00:07:10,609 --> 00:07:12,201
Gulp.
83
00:07:12,744 --> 00:07:14,871
It's all gone.
84
00:07:16,248 --> 00:07:19,240
- Oh, it's all gone.
- Four thirty-five.
85
00:07:19,418 --> 00:07:22,581
Get the other one. Get the other one.
86
00:07:23,889 --> 00:07:27,723
You'll wake up Daddy.
He'll hear you.
87
00:07:33,899 --> 00:07:38,131
- What?
- I'm gonna go out the window...
88
00:07:39,271 --> 00:07:43,037
...and down the tree,
as silent as a squirrel.
89
00:07:43,642 --> 00:07:46,440
- Don't fall, then. Hurry up.
- Four, three, five.
90
00:07:47,112 --> 00:07:49,808
- No, no. Wait a second, Joe.
- What?
91
00:07:49,981 --> 00:07:52,472
- You said...
- I'll be quiet as a squirrel.
92
00:07:52,684 --> 00:07:55,778
- Three, five, four.
- No.
93
00:07:55,954 --> 00:07:59,515
- Yes.
- No. Four, three, five. Hold that.
94
00:08:17,409 --> 00:08:18,808
Hurry back.
95
00:08:19,644 --> 00:08:21,578
Four, five, three.
96
00:09:16,501 --> 00:09:18,401
Here we go!
97
00:09:19,271 --> 00:09:20,863
What was it?
98
00:09:21,106 --> 00:09:25,839
Fourth, was it? One. Two. Three.
99
00:09:26,011 --> 00:09:28,707
Fourth row! Third table.
100
00:09:28,880 --> 00:09:33,840
Two. Fifth pot.
One, two, three, four, five...
101
00:09:34,019 --> 00:09:36,317
...and come to Papa!
102
00:09:56,875 --> 00:09:58,570
What...?
103
00:10:05,150 --> 00:10:07,175
Five, four, three.
104
00:10:07,619 --> 00:10:11,282
Fourth, fifth row.
Third table, fourth pot.
105
00:10:11,456 --> 00:10:15,187
One, two, three, four.
106
00:10:18,630 --> 00:10:20,928
Wait a minute. What...?
107
00:10:25,737 --> 00:10:27,500
What happened?
108
00:10:28,540 --> 00:10:30,235
Wait a minute.
109
00:10:30,408 --> 00:10:32,535
Don't get excited.
Wait a minute.
110
00:10:33,245 --> 00:10:36,009
Start it all over. Wait a minute.
One.
111
00:10:36,181 --> 00:10:40,641
Two. One. Five, four, three...
112
00:10:40,819 --> 00:10:43,845
One. It's the fifth pot!
113
00:10:44,022 --> 00:10:46,991
One more. Third.
114
00:10:55,433 --> 00:10:57,264
Where is it?
115
00:10:58,703 --> 00:11:00,398
What?
116
00:11:06,311 --> 00:11:08,142
Who took it?
117
00:11:16,988 --> 00:11:19,980
Where is it? Red flower!
118
00:11:20,158 --> 00:11:22,149
It's a red flower!
119
00:11:23,495 --> 00:11:26,658
Lights! Where are the lights?
120
00:11:39,978 --> 00:11:43,607
Who took it? Who took it?
121
00:11:43,782 --> 00:11:46,683
Who took it? Who took it?
122
00:11:46,851 --> 00:11:50,412
Where? Where? Where is it?
123
00:11:50,589 --> 00:11:54,150
Who took it? Who took it?
124
00:11:54,893 --> 00:12:00,331
Somebody stole it!
They stole it! They stole it!
125
00:12:01,533 --> 00:12:03,626
Who took it?
126
00:12:10,542 --> 00:12:12,976
They took it!
127
00:12:13,144 --> 00:12:17,046
Took it! They took it!
128
00:13:10,168 --> 00:13:11,897
Daddy?
129
00:13:13,371 --> 00:13:14,998
Daddy?
130
00:13:15,440 --> 00:13:18,204
- I'm drunk as a skunk.
- Kirsty!
131
00:13:18,743 --> 00:13:21,803
I'm plastered and Ionely.
I want you to kiss me good night.
132
00:13:21,980 --> 00:13:24,540
- Dirty Joe brought whiskey.
- Kiss me good night.
133
00:13:24,716 --> 00:13:27,549
- You get back to your room.
- What's the matter, Daddy?
134
00:13:27,719 --> 00:13:30,085
I just want you to kiss...
135
00:13:32,390 --> 00:13:34,187
Granddaddy?
136
00:13:34,693 --> 00:13:38,094
- Go to bed, Debbie!
- You get out of here! Get out of here!
137
00:13:39,030 --> 00:13:42,693
- You leave my daddy alone, leave him alone!
- Debbie! Go ahead!
138
00:13:42,867 --> 00:13:45,495
- You come along with me, now.
- I'm not a kid.
139
00:13:51,876 --> 00:13:53,844
- Get in the tub.
- No, I don't wanna.
140
00:13:54,012 --> 00:13:56,708
- Get in the tub!
- Daddy!
141
00:13:56,881 --> 00:13:58,678
Get in there!
142
00:13:58,883 --> 00:14:00,714
What are you doing?
143
00:14:16,768 --> 00:14:18,963
One-sixty-eight, Ed.
144
00:15:11,689 --> 00:15:13,782
Ed, give me a hand!
145
00:16:36,474 --> 00:16:38,567
How you feeling, fella?
146
00:16:39,577 --> 00:16:41,101
Rotten.
147
00:16:46,084 --> 00:16:49,645
- Who are you?
- I'm Jim Hungerford.
148
00:16:50,054 --> 00:16:52,454
Nurse says you want help.
149
00:16:55,526 --> 00:16:57,653
I'm from Alcoholics Anonymous.
150
00:17:00,665 --> 00:17:03,099
- Honey, please read the book.
- No.
151
00:17:03,268 --> 00:17:05,862
Hungerford says the AA meetings
are terrific.
152
00:17:06,037 --> 00:17:09,495
Just a bunch of alcoholics
keeping each other sober, and it works.
153
00:17:09,674 --> 00:17:13,041
- Now, please read the book. It makes sense.
- No!
154
00:17:13,211 --> 00:17:16,408
I don't know why you took it.
They must think you're a bum.
155
00:17:16,581 --> 00:17:20,881
I asked for it. I must have needed help,
I was in the hospital.
156
00:17:21,052 --> 00:17:24,249
- You didn't belong there.
- I was there. Nobody belongs there.
157
00:17:24,422 --> 00:17:28,085
I passed out on Mission Street.
I didn't belong there, but...
158
00:17:28,259 --> 00:17:31,558
All right, you had too much.
Doesn't mean you're an alcoholic.
159
00:17:31,729 --> 00:17:36,029
Look, dear. What's wrong with just going
to a meeting? Now, what could we lose?
160
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,260
You can go if you want,
I don't care, but I'm not gonna go.
161
00:17:39,437 --> 00:17:42,929
I am not an alcoholic
and I refuse to say I am.
162
00:17:43,141 --> 00:17:45,735
I refuse to ask for help in something...
163
00:17:45,910 --> 00:17:49,903
...that is just a matter
of self-respect and willpower.
164
00:17:50,114 --> 00:17:54,141
I refuse to get up in front of a bunch
of people and degrade myself.
165
00:17:54,852 --> 00:17:58,618
I know I can't drink,
because it gets the best of me, so I...
166
00:17:58,923 --> 00:18:03,155
I will just use my willpower and not drink,
and that's the end of it.
167
00:18:19,877 --> 00:18:23,210
- We got time for a cigarette.
- You nervous?
168
00:18:23,381 --> 00:18:24,905
No, I...
169
00:18:25,083 --> 00:18:27,415
- Button came off my jacket.
- Leave it open.
170
00:18:27,585 --> 00:18:30,486
- Yeah.
- Oh, yeah. Here.
171
00:18:32,690 --> 00:18:35,090
I used to be a pretty fancy dresser.
172
00:18:35,259 --> 00:18:38,126
I wouldn't have been caught dead
with a button off me.
173
00:18:39,297 --> 00:18:44,064
- You're scared?
- No, this is natural complexion. Pale green.
174
00:18:44,235 --> 00:18:49,332
- Nobody will notice. Come on.
- Well, wait a minute. Just, you know...
175
00:18:49,507 --> 00:18:53,170
Hey, you know, you are turning pale green.
Now, will you come on?
176
00:18:54,178 --> 00:18:56,146
It's facing all the people.
177
00:18:56,481 --> 00:18:58,642
- You sure?
- What do you mean?
178
00:18:58,816 --> 00:19:02,115
- It's facing yourself, isn't it?
- I don't mind sharing my life.
179
00:19:02,286 --> 00:19:06,222
Even the most embarrassing parts of it.
That's not what bothers me.
180
00:19:07,025 --> 00:19:09,994
The idea of standing in front
of everyone and saying:
181
00:19:10,161 --> 00:19:12,595
- "I am an alcoholic."
- Are you?
182
00:19:12,764 --> 00:19:15,096
- Yes, l...
- So are we! Now, you've heard us...
183
00:19:15,266 --> 00:19:19,225
...night after night saying, "I am an
alcoholic." It's a big step forward.
184
00:19:19,404 --> 00:19:22,999
But it's funny that four months ago
you saw me in the violent ward...
185
00:19:23,174 --> 00:19:26,735
...and you told me about AA.
I went to the meetings, I listened...
186
00:19:26,911 --> 00:19:31,905
...and I've been sober ever since. Kirs
has been sober too, just as sober as I am.
187
00:19:32,083 --> 00:19:37,111
And she has never said, "I am an alcoholic."
She hasn't been near a meeting.
188
00:19:37,288 --> 00:19:39,654
She claims she
can do it on willpower alone.
189
00:19:39,824 --> 00:19:41,519
Can you?
190
00:19:44,062 --> 00:19:46,496
My name is Jim Hungerford.
191
00:19:46,764 --> 00:19:48,664
And I'm an alcoholic.
192
00:19:48,833 --> 00:19:50,425
I'm your chairman for tonight.
193
00:19:50,601 --> 00:19:54,469
Now, all I have to do to qualify myself
is to say that I drank too much...
194
00:19:54,639 --> 00:19:57,301
...too often over too long
a period of time.
195
00:19:57,708 --> 00:20:02,111
Welcome to the meeting of the Mason
Street group of Alcoholics Anonymous.
196
00:20:05,583 --> 00:20:10,111
"Alcoholics Anonymous is a group of men
and women who share their experience...
197
00:20:10,288 --> 00:20:13,780
...strength and hopes that they may
solve their common problem...
198
00:20:13,958 --> 00:20:16,483
...and help others
to recover from alcoholism.
199
00:20:16,661 --> 00:20:20,392
The only requirement for membership
is a desire to stop drinking.
200
00:20:20,731 --> 00:20:23,222
There are no dues or fees
for AA membership.
201
00:20:23,401 --> 00:20:27,235
We are self-supporting through our own
contributions. AA is not allied...
202
00:20:27,405 --> 00:20:31,705
...with any sect, denomination, politics,
organization or institution.
203
00:20:31,876 --> 00:20:37,007
Does not wish to engage in controversy,
neither endorses nor opposes any causes.
204
00:20:37,181 --> 00:20:42,483
Our primary purpose is to stay sober and
help other alcoholics to achieve sobriety."
205
00:20:43,855 --> 00:20:47,791
Now, we got a couple of speakers tonight
I know you're gonna enjoy hearing.
206
00:20:47,959 --> 00:20:51,520
To start, we're gonna hear from a man
who came just four months ago.
207
00:20:51,696 --> 00:20:54,494
Now, this will be his first talk
at an AA meeting.
208
00:20:54,699 --> 00:20:56,394
Joe.
209
00:21:14,619 --> 00:21:16,780
My name...
210
00:21:18,523 --> 00:21:21,822
My name is Joe Clay.
211
00:21:25,263 --> 00:21:27,527
I'm an alcoholic.
212
00:21:46,384 --> 00:21:48,215
Honey?
213
00:21:50,454 --> 00:21:52,251
Debbie?
214
00:22:05,937 --> 00:22:07,370
Come in.
215
00:22:07,572 --> 00:22:09,631
Oh, hi, Jim.
216
00:22:09,974 --> 00:22:12,602
- I'm sorry to...
- No, you should've called sooner.
217
00:22:12,777 --> 00:22:14,108
Any word?
218
00:22:14,278 --> 00:22:18,305
Two days and two nights and l...
I had to call you. I was afraid I might...
219
00:22:18,482 --> 00:22:21,508
- Yeah, I know. Did you tell the police?
- Yeah.
220
00:22:22,019 --> 00:22:25,614
I just... I can't see how
this could be happening to us.
221
00:22:25,790 --> 00:22:28,782
- You drank too much.
- A lot of people drink as much...
222
00:22:28,960 --> 00:22:32,259
...as Kirs and I and they're not alcoholics.
- Yet.
223
00:22:32,430 --> 00:22:34,455
A lot of them never are.
224
00:22:35,166 --> 00:22:37,225
It's a lottery, Joe.
225
00:22:37,635 --> 00:22:40,263
- And you lost.
- Yeah. Well, how?
226
00:22:40,438 --> 00:22:43,134
No way to find out before it's too late.
227
00:22:44,141 --> 00:22:47,668
Joe, you remember how you told us
about Kirsten's obsession...
228
00:22:47,845 --> 00:22:50,109
...with chocolate candy
when you first met?
229
00:22:50,281 --> 00:22:53,944
A psychologist might have told you
then she was a potential alcoholic.
230
00:22:54,118 --> 00:22:57,417
You wouldn't have believed him.
And he might have been wrong.
231
00:22:57,588 --> 00:23:02,457
How many strawberries does it take to start
an allergy? And which one gives you hives?
232
00:23:02,627 --> 00:23:07,291
Alcoholism is an illness. It's pretty hard
to diagnose an illness until you've got it.
233
00:23:07,498 --> 00:23:11,901
- Come on, Joe. She'll turn up, honest.
- Why did she do it, why did she leave?
234
00:23:12,069 --> 00:23:14,867
- That's...
- She wanted a drink.
235
00:23:15,206 --> 00:23:18,573
She had to drink, she could drink
right here, and she knows it.
236
00:23:18,743 --> 00:23:22,110
You're sober.
It's no fun to drink around you.
237
00:23:22,313 --> 00:23:25,248
It's worse! Your sobriety would be
an accusation to her.
238
00:23:25,416 --> 00:23:28,510
She'd be miserable.
She's lost her playmate.
239
00:23:28,853 --> 00:23:30,718
And Joe...
240
00:23:31,255 --> 00:23:36,488
Listen, don't be too surprised
if she finds another one.
241
00:23:43,934 --> 00:23:47,768
She loves me. You just don't understand,
there's no trouble between us.
242
00:23:47,938 --> 00:23:50,463
There wasn't any trouble.
Joe, don't forget.
243
00:23:50,641 --> 00:23:54,600
For a long time, booze has been
an integral part of your relationship.
244
00:23:54,779 --> 00:23:58,078
If she drinks and you don't,
you gotta find a new meeting ground...
245
00:23:58,249 --> 00:24:01,377
...a different basis for a relationship.
It takes adjusting.
246
00:24:01,552 --> 00:24:04,851
I find it hard to believe this.
There was one thing about us...
247
00:24:05,022 --> 00:24:08,788
...we always knew we were in love.
There was no doubt about it. We knew.
248
00:24:08,959 --> 00:24:11,655
Do you understand what I'm saying?
We had something.
249
00:24:11,829 --> 00:24:14,127
Things like that don't just evaporate.
250
00:24:14,398 --> 00:24:17,424
Joe, the night you tore up your
father-in-law's flowers...
251
00:24:17,601 --> 00:24:18,966
...Iooking for the bottle?
252
00:24:19,136 --> 00:24:21,161
- What'd you do with it?
- I drank it.
253
00:24:21,339 --> 00:24:24,001
You didn't take it back
and drink it with Kirsten?
254
00:24:27,111 --> 00:24:28,373
No.
255
00:24:28,546 --> 00:24:31,777
There comes a time for every alcoholic
when the bottle is God.
256
00:24:31,949 --> 00:24:34,645
Nothing matters but the next drink.
You know that.
257
00:24:34,819 --> 00:24:36,787
I know I know it, I just...
258
00:24:36,954 --> 00:24:39,946
I can't believe that this
is happening to me, that's all!
259
00:24:40,958 --> 00:24:43,119
Two people. Seven years.
260
00:24:43,294 --> 00:24:46,286
Booze, no booze, drunk, sober.
261
00:24:46,464 --> 00:24:48,898
Isn't love... Iove?
262
00:24:50,101 --> 00:24:51,693
I don't know.
263
00:24:51,869 --> 00:24:54,963
I was drunk for 12 years,
I've been sober the last 14.
264
00:24:55,139 --> 00:24:59,098
All I know is the drunk world is one world
and the sober world is another.
265
00:25:02,880 --> 00:25:05,280
Such a Ionely person.
266
00:25:06,417 --> 00:25:08,442
Oh, God, keep her safe.
267
00:25:09,420 --> 00:25:13,413
- Is your little girl all right?
- Yeah, she's...
268
00:25:13,591 --> 00:25:16,492
...on the peninsula
with her grandfather.
269
00:25:19,330 --> 00:25:20,661
Hello?
270
00:25:20,831 --> 00:25:22,594
Yes, this is Mr. Clay.
271
00:25:22,767 --> 00:25:24,758
Yes, Kirsten Clay, that's right, yes.
272
00:25:24,935 --> 00:25:25,959
- Where?
- Police?
273
00:25:26,137 --> 00:25:29,538
Where is...?
Shore Motel, where is that?
274
00:25:30,074 --> 00:25:34,101
I see... Who is...? Mr. Turning?
Is she all right?
275
00:25:36,814 --> 00:25:38,509
She alone?
276
00:25:39,517 --> 00:25:42,315
I'll be there as fast as possible.
Thanks for calling.
277
00:25:42,486 --> 00:25:44,954
She's in a motel.
Mr. Turning owns the motel.
278
00:25:45,122 --> 00:25:50,424
He said that she came in a cab and checked
in drunk and she's been drunk ever since.
279
00:25:50,594 --> 00:25:52,858
- Want me to go with you?
- I better go alone.
280
00:25:53,030 --> 00:25:54,964
- Here, take my car.
- Thanks.
281
00:25:55,132 --> 00:25:57,965
Joe, listen, listen.
At the risk of sounding preachy...
282
00:25:58,135 --> 00:26:01,798
- I know. Easy does it, first things first...
- No, no. Something else.
283
00:26:01,972 --> 00:26:05,305
She may resent your being sober.
It separates you.
284
00:26:05,476 --> 00:26:07,637
- I know that.
- But Joe!
285
00:26:08,212 --> 00:26:12,581
If you're not sober, you're not worth
a damn to her or anybody else, are you?
286
00:26:12,750 --> 00:26:14,308
No.
287
00:26:23,260 --> 00:26:25,387
- Yes, sir?
- Hello, I'm Mr. Clay.
288
00:26:25,563 --> 00:26:29,397
- She's in the last bungalow, Mr. Clay.
- Thank you.
289
00:26:52,556 --> 00:26:57,493
One sliced turnip, two stalks of celery,
add pepper and salt...
290
00:26:57,661 --> 00:27:00,391
... and a dash of Worcestershire sauce.
291
00:27:00,564 --> 00:27:05,592
My, my, what nobility has to put up with
just to have dinner.
292
00:27:05,769 --> 00:27:09,205
- I'm glad I'm a rabbit.
- Now place rabbit into oven...
293
00:27:09,373 --> 00:27:12,604
... and heat oven to 350 degrees.
294
00:27:12,776 --> 00:27:16,610
Three hundred and fifty degrees?
Too hot for me.
295
00:27:16,780 --> 00:27:20,614
I just remembered another commitment.
Give my regrets to His Majesty.
296
00:27:20,784 --> 00:27:25,084
I bid you farewell, arrivederci, sayonara
and all that sort of jazz.
297
00:27:25,256 --> 00:27:28,623
Oh, no, you're not.
You're staying.
298
00:27:28,792 --> 00:27:33,024
- I insist.
- Okay, okay. If it's that important.
299
00:27:33,197 --> 00:27:38,829
Cook! Cook!
Where's my hasenpfeffer?
300
00:27:40,771 --> 00:27:43,797
Coming right up, Royal Highness.
301
00:27:43,974 --> 00:27:48,911
Bon app�tit, O gracious Majesty.
302
00:27:52,182 --> 00:27:54,742
You bonehead, that...
303
00:28:18,075 --> 00:28:20,100
Have about a drink, honey?
304
00:28:20,744 --> 00:28:22,575
- Not now.
- Come on, have a drink.
305
00:28:22,746 --> 00:28:24,714
No, I don't want one.
306
00:28:24,949 --> 00:28:26,507
I do.
307
00:28:28,185 --> 00:28:29,880
You think...?
308
00:28:32,823 --> 00:28:35,553
Honey, do you think you're about
ready to come home?
309
00:28:43,834 --> 00:28:45,597
It's you.
310
00:28:46,770 --> 00:28:49,967
- What do you want?
- I want my wife.
311
00:28:52,876 --> 00:28:54,969
Sober Joe.
312
00:28:55,479 --> 00:28:57,743
Milkman's friend.
313
00:28:58,949 --> 00:29:03,352
Well, now you got me,
what do you want to do?
314
00:29:03,821 --> 00:29:06,085
I was hoping to take you home.
315
00:29:11,729 --> 00:29:13,663
I like it here.
316
00:29:15,933 --> 00:29:19,096
My friends are here.
317
00:29:20,404 --> 00:29:22,895
You have your friends, I have mine.
318
00:29:24,174 --> 00:29:26,005
Have a drink.
319
00:29:31,148 --> 00:29:33,082
Excuse me, I forgot.
320
00:29:33,684 --> 00:29:35,845
Shame, I'm all out of...
321
00:29:38,255 --> 00:29:39,950
...milk...
322
00:29:41,325 --> 00:29:44,226
...coffee, tea and orange juice, those...
323
00:29:45,062 --> 00:29:47,553
...non-alcoholic beverages.
324
00:29:49,600 --> 00:29:52,797
- Honey, if you'd just come home.
- No!
325
00:30:00,411 --> 00:30:02,811
Well, you laid in a good supply.
326
00:30:02,980 --> 00:30:05,744
- We could take it home and have a...
- No!
327
00:30:08,786 --> 00:30:12,483
- You have your friends, you don't need me.
- Oh, honey.
328
00:30:13,857 --> 00:30:17,156
Joe. Kiss me, Joe.
329
00:30:24,234 --> 00:30:26,600
I taste like gin.
330
00:30:27,438 --> 00:30:31,340
You never did like gin,
so I didn't drink it, but...
331
00:30:31,542 --> 00:30:34,943
...now I'm alone,
so I drink it because I like gin.
332
00:30:44,855 --> 00:30:46,914
Together in heaven.
333
00:30:47,257 --> 00:30:49,157
Likely story.
334
00:30:51,228 --> 00:30:53,355
Now he doesn't even like...
335
00:30:54,565 --> 00:30:57,125
...the taste of me anymore.
336
00:31:07,544 --> 00:31:09,102
Honey...
337
00:31:11,115 --> 00:31:12,844
- Let me get you some food.
- No.
338
00:31:13,016 --> 00:31:15,507
- You're gonna get sick, you know...
- I don't care!
339
00:31:15,686 --> 00:31:21,318
I don't care, just go away and leave me
alone. I don't care about anything.
340
00:31:26,930 --> 00:31:28,329
I'll be back.
341
00:31:28,499 --> 00:31:30,126
Don't bother.
342
00:31:37,708 --> 00:31:39,107
Joe.
343
00:31:41,678 --> 00:31:43,009
I'm Ionely, Joe.
344
00:31:48,318 --> 00:31:49,979
Have a drink with me, please.
345
00:31:51,522 --> 00:31:53,080
I can't.
346
00:31:53,490 --> 00:31:56,357
- I'm Ionely!
- I'll stay with you, but I can't.
347
00:31:56,527 --> 00:31:58,586
Don't do me any favors!
348
00:31:58,762 --> 00:32:01,731
Can't have a drink,
too good to have a drink with me.
349
00:32:02,399 --> 00:32:05,095
What'd they do to you down
at that AA place, anyway?
350
00:32:05,269 --> 00:32:08,466
Aren't you a man anymore?
Can't you hear a woman calling you?
351
00:32:08,639 --> 00:32:10,504
I'm a woman, can't you hear me?
352
00:32:11,074 --> 00:32:13,338
- I hear you.
- What're you gonna do about it?
353
00:32:13,510 --> 00:32:17,412
- But we've got our own little apartment...
- No, we haven't.
354
00:32:17,581 --> 00:32:20,550
I'm not going back there.
Never, never.
355
00:32:20,717 --> 00:32:23,777
I want to be where people live.
I don't want any of your...
356
00:32:25,122 --> 00:32:27,317
...mealy-mouthed...
357
00:32:28,125 --> 00:32:31,925
...holier-than-thou, do-gooder
Boy Scouts with their...
358
00:32:32,496 --> 00:32:36,523
...with their hot coffee and their cold feet.
359
00:32:36,867 --> 00:32:41,770
I don't want anybody who doesn't have
the guts to take a drink. Now, go away.
360
00:32:47,945 --> 00:32:49,469
I want a cigarette.
361
00:33:35,559 --> 00:33:37,288
Keep the pack.
362
00:33:39,496 --> 00:33:41,691
You're not giving me anything.
363
00:33:41,899 --> 00:33:43,992
They're community property.
364
00:33:44,167 --> 00:33:47,295
So's the gin, 50-50. Here.
365
00:33:52,976 --> 00:33:56,207
I'm not coming back, Joe.
You're too good.
366
00:33:56,813 --> 00:34:01,113
And there's no bore in the world
like a goody-good.
367
00:34:52,436 --> 00:34:54,734
Want some of mine, honey?
368
00:37:17,380 --> 00:37:19,177
Hello!
369
00:37:27,791 --> 00:37:29,850
We're closed, buddy.
370
00:37:30,393 --> 00:37:33,191
- I said, we're closed.
- No, come on, please!
371
00:37:33,363 --> 00:37:37,322
- We close at 11. Go on home.
- Oh, please.
372
00:37:38,001 --> 00:37:41,835
Now look, you. Get out of here before
I call the cops. Now, beat it.
373
00:37:42,005 --> 00:37:45,406
No, please, please...
374
00:37:46,710 --> 00:37:48,507
Please.
375
00:38:19,142 --> 00:38:20,404
Oh, please.
376
00:38:20,577 --> 00:38:22,101
What is it, what's happening?
377
00:38:22,279 --> 00:38:26,272
Go on inside, I'll take care of this.
Go on!
378
00:38:27,150 --> 00:38:28,913
So you like booze, hey, buddy?
379
00:38:32,289 --> 00:38:34,450
I didn't know you wanted it that bad.
380
00:38:34,624 --> 00:38:36,558
Why didn't you ask?
381
00:38:37,027 --> 00:38:40,190
I'll give you all the booze you want.
382
00:39:07,591 --> 00:39:08,990
Why?
383
00:39:09,459 --> 00:39:11,256
Joe, who am I?
384
00:39:11,728 --> 00:39:13,355
- Joe.
- What?
385
00:39:13,530 --> 00:39:15,122
Who am I?
386
00:39:16,333 --> 00:39:17,925
Who am I?
387
00:39:19,002 --> 00:39:21,664
- You're...
- Say it. Come on.
388
00:39:23,006 --> 00:39:24,473
Jim.
389
00:39:26,243 --> 00:39:29,303
- What happened?
- What happened? You took a drink.
390
00:39:29,646 --> 00:39:31,113
You're drying out now.
391
00:39:31,281 --> 00:39:36,446
For two days there was a little green man
chasing you around with pruning shears.
392
00:39:37,621 --> 00:39:40,089
No, no, no, no, no.
393
00:39:44,961 --> 00:39:46,360
Gotta...
394
00:39:47,731 --> 00:39:52,293
- Gotta get my wife.
- No, let her stay with her dad for a while.
395
00:39:56,706 --> 00:39:58,503
I want...
396
00:39:59,576 --> 00:40:01,635
I want her with me.
397
00:40:03,780 --> 00:40:05,338
Joe.
398
00:40:08,385 --> 00:40:10,853
Joe, you gotta stay sober.
399
00:40:11,221 --> 00:40:13,951
Even if it means keeping away from her.
400
00:40:17,560 --> 00:40:19,357
I can't hear you, Joe.
401
00:40:21,131 --> 00:40:23,622
I love her!
402
00:40:24,367 --> 00:40:27,962
Joe, if you really love her,
I mean if you really love her...
403
00:40:28,138 --> 00:40:29,935
...then you help her.
404
00:40:31,107 --> 00:40:33,268
- How?
- You set an example.
405
00:40:33,443 --> 00:40:37,038
Show her that an alky can beat the rap.
Give her something to aim at.
406
00:40:37,213 --> 00:40:39,306
Come on, will you do that?
407
00:40:44,754 --> 00:40:49,714
Oh, boy. I should have never told you
about that guy with the pruning shears.
408
00:41:02,205 --> 00:41:04,002
Hello, Pop.
409
00:41:06,676 --> 00:41:09,076
I told you before, Joe.
410
00:41:09,746 --> 00:41:11,577
Don't come here.
411
00:41:12,349 --> 00:41:16,308
I've got something important, Pop,
something I have to talk to you about.
412
00:41:18,221 --> 00:41:20,519
Really, this means a lot to me.
413
00:41:27,864 --> 00:41:31,231
- Kirs gone out someplace, or...?
- She's gone to the movies.
414
00:41:32,535 --> 00:41:33,797
She okay?
415
00:41:33,970 --> 00:41:37,303
- You come here to talk about Kirsty?
- No, I didn't.
416
00:41:38,174 --> 00:41:40,699
Tell you what I came to talk about, Pop.
417
00:41:41,478 --> 00:41:43,708
I've come to square accounts with you.
418
00:41:47,283 --> 00:41:49,114
First of all...
419
00:41:49,285 --> 00:41:55,315
...the $500 that you lent us that time
to try and get started again.
420
00:41:56,159 --> 00:42:00,892
We spent it, most of it,
on a couple of benders.
421
00:42:02,499 --> 00:42:05,593
Really didn't make much effort
to get straightened out.
422
00:42:05,869 --> 00:42:08,895
I just stayed drunk as long
as the money lasted.
423
00:42:09,773 --> 00:42:12,139
We lied to you about that.
424
00:42:12,842 --> 00:42:16,539
- I know you worked hard for that.
- You started my daughter drinking.
425
00:42:16,713 --> 00:42:20,877
- Pop, please listen, I'm...
- You started my daughter drinking.
426
00:42:21,184 --> 00:42:24,153
When she lived here with her mama
and me she never drank.
427
00:42:24,320 --> 00:42:26,788
We never gave her even one beer.
428
00:42:26,956 --> 00:42:30,187
- You started her!
- Pop, what are you...?
429
00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:35,559
Pop! Don't! Are you nuts?
Now, what are you trying to do?
430
00:42:41,871 --> 00:42:43,361
Pop?
431
00:42:44,741 --> 00:42:46,936
Sure, we drank together.
432
00:42:47,110 --> 00:42:49,135
And we did right from the start, but...
433
00:42:49,312 --> 00:42:50,904
Where is she?
434
00:42:52,081 --> 00:42:54,345
She's been gone three days!
435
00:42:55,385 --> 00:42:57,148
My girl.
436
00:42:57,787 --> 00:43:00,119
- My girl.
- Pop...
437
00:43:01,858 --> 00:43:04,452
She went off with another bum.
438
00:43:05,228 --> 00:43:07,662
Not the same one, another one.
439
00:43:07,831 --> 00:43:10,459
It's always another bum.
440
00:43:11,134 --> 00:43:12,795
It's always:
441
00:43:12,969 --> 00:43:16,803
"Good night, Dad. I'll be home early."
442
00:43:16,973 --> 00:43:21,740
"Good night, Kirsty.
I'll leave the light on in the kitchen."
443
00:43:23,146 --> 00:43:26,343
I always turn it off in the morning, Joe.
444
00:43:28,384 --> 00:43:30,750
I thought you told me
she was getting better.
445
00:43:30,920 --> 00:43:35,823
Two weeks ago she was in the hospital
three days. Sick to death from drinking.
446
00:43:35,992 --> 00:43:38,222
Can't you tell her that...?
447
00:43:38,394 --> 00:43:41,886
Tell her how well I'm doing.
Tell her all about the new apartment.
448
00:43:42,065 --> 00:43:45,557
- Tell her I'll take her back any time.
- She wouldn't have listened.
449
00:43:45,735 --> 00:43:49,432
Well, tell her... Debbie cries for her.
450
00:43:49,606 --> 00:43:51,767
Then she'd get drunk for sure.
451
00:43:51,941 --> 00:43:54,102
I don't know what to do.
452
00:43:54,277 --> 00:43:56,541
I don't know what to tell Debbie.
453
00:43:58,882 --> 00:44:01,510
Well, Pop...
454
00:44:01,684 --> 00:44:05,017
...there's some things we can be
thankful for. Now...
455
00:44:05,188 --> 00:44:10,216
...I'm working steady and I'm sober.
And I'm starting to pay you back, Pop.
456
00:44:10,393 --> 00:44:14,386
The $500, there's the first installment.
I'll pay for her hospital bill too.
457
00:44:14,564 --> 00:44:15,826
- No.
- Yes, I am.
458
00:44:15,999 --> 00:44:21,266
I'll pay you board as long as she stays here
and for the potted plants I ruined that time.
459
00:44:21,437 --> 00:44:24,201
I don't need for you to do that, Joe.
460
00:44:24,374 --> 00:44:26,535
Pop, you don't understand.
461
00:44:27,577 --> 00:44:29,875
I need for me to do it.
462
00:45:47,323 --> 00:45:48,984
Kirs.
463
00:45:49,659 --> 00:45:51,524
Debbie asleep?
464
00:45:52,462 --> 00:45:54,555
Yes, it's after 11.
465
00:45:55,832 --> 00:45:58,198
I didn't want her to see me.
466
00:46:01,137 --> 00:46:03,469
- You don't look so...
- So bad?
467
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:06,234
Not as bad as you imagined I would.
468
00:46:06,409 --> 00:46:08,843
Well, thanks for trying,
but I know how I look.
469
00:46:09,012 --> 00:46:11,640
This is the way I look when I'm sober.
470
00:46:11,948 --> 00:46:15,111
That's enough to make a person drink,
wouldn't you say?
471
00:46:24,360 --> 00:46:25,793
Joe...
472
00:46:25,962 --> 00:46:28,624
...I haven't had a drink in two days.
473
00:46:29,532 --> 00:46:31,727
Well, that's wonderful.
474
00:46:32,368 --> 00:46:34,131
It wasn't easy.
475
00:46:34,303 --> 00:46:36,863
But I wanted to talk to you, so I...
476
00:46:37,040 --> 00:46:41,568
I thought I'd try and deserve it, at least
a little. Sort of a penance, you might say.
477
00:46:41,811 --> 00:46:46,441
You'd be surprised how much fun you can
have sober, when you get the hang of it.
478
00:46:46,616 --> 00:46:48,709
And you've got the hang of it?
479
00:46:48,885 --> 00:46:50,477
Think so.
480
00:46:51,621 --> 00:46:53,213
Believe me, it's the greatest.
481
00:46:53,389 --> 00:46:55,789
Joe, wouldn't it be wonderful
to begin again?
482
00:46:55,958 --> 00:46:58,791
Just erase everything in between,
start all over?
483
00:46:58,961 --> 00:47:01,054
Getting excited over a chocolate bar?
484
00:47:05,435 --> 00:47:06,959
I wanna come home.
485
00:47:15,144 --> 00:47:17,738
I know what you're thinking about.
486
00:47:19,982 --> 00:47:22,644
A lot's happened, lots of...
487
00:47:23,186 --> 00:47:24,847
...detours.
488
00:47:25,922 --> 00:47:29,756
There were plenty of them, but they
were nothing. I never looked at them.
489
00:47:29,926 --> 00:47:33,794
They had no identity. I never gave
anything out of myself to them.
490
00:47:33,963 --> 00:47:37,956
I thought they'd help me
from being so Ionely.
491
00:47:38,134 --> 00:47:42,867
But love is the only thing that keeps you
from being Ionely and I didn't have that.
492
00:47:44,140 --> 00:47:45,607
Kirs...
493
00:47:46,943 --> 00:47:51,573
There's a little girl asleep in there that
would love to wake up and see you here.
494
00:47:51,748 --> 00:47:54,012
All you've gotta do
is say the right words.
495
00:47:54,417 --> 00:47:58,854
I don't know if I have the right words,
that's why it took me so long to get here.
496
00:48:01,791 --> 00:48:05,124
You see, the world looks so dirty
to me when I'm not drinking.
497
00:48:05,294 --> 00:48:08,695
Remember Fisherman's Wharf?
The water when you look too close?
498
00:48:08,865 --> 00:48:11,629
That's the way the world looks
when I'm not drinking.
499
00:48:11,801 --> 00:48:15,259
I don't think I could ever stop drinking
completely, not like you.
500
00:48:15,438 --> 00:48:17,338
- You could!
- Lf I really wanted to?
501
00:48:17,507 --> 00:48:19,941
Well, I don't. I know that now.
502
00:48:21,010 --> 00:48:23,843
I want things to look prettier
than they are.
503
00:48:25,114 --> 00:48:28,948
But I know I could be all right,
if you'd help me. I know I could.
504
00:48:29,118 --> 00:48:32,246
If we were together and things
were like they used to be...
505
00:48:32,421 --> 00:48:34,548
...and I wasn't so nervous.
506
00:48:34,724 --> 00:48:38,660
I need to be loved. I get so Ionely
from not being loved I can't stand it.
507
00:48:38,961 --> 00:48:40,861
I love you.
508
00:48:41,430 --> 00:48:42,795
I'm afraid of you.
509
00:48:42,965 --> 00:48:46,457
I'm an alcoholic, I can't take a drink.
I'm afraid of what we'd do.
510
00:48:46,636 --> 00:48:48,365
If you'd just say that you'd try.
511
00:48:48,938 --> 00:48:52,135
But I can't face the idea
of never having another drink.
512
00:48:52,308 --> 00:48:55,539
- Just one day at a time.
- I can't. I can't. I can't!
513
00:48:55,711 --> 00:49:00,171
Doesn't it impress you that I have been
sober for almost a year and I'm happy?
514
00:49:00,349 --> 00:49:02,112
I'm working steady.
I feel great.
515
00:49:02,285 --> 00:49:06,016
Debbie and I are living in a decent
place again, all because I'm sober.
516
00:49:06,589 --> 00:49:07,851
Yes.
517
00:49:08,024 --> 00:49:11,790
- There's plenty of room.
- You're strong. I know you can help me.
518
00:49:11,961 --> 00:49:14,987
- Lf we only had it back like it was.
- Back like it...?
519
00:49:15,164 --> 00:49:16,961
Do you remember how it really was?
520
00:49:17,133 --> 00:49:20,125
You and me and booze.
A threesome, do you remember?
521
00:49:20,303 --> 00:49:23,966
- Not that it wasn't great.
- We can have it back that way again, if...
522
00:49:24,140 --> 00:49:28,076
If I'll drink with you. But I'm not
gonna drink with you. It's finished!
523
00:49:28,244 --> 00:49:31,304
I wouldn't ask you to drink with me.
I'd control myself.
524
00:49:31,480 --> 00:49:35,109
You can't control yourself,
you're an alcoholic, the same as I am.
525
00:49:35,284 --> 00:49:36,376
No, no.
526
00:49:36,552 --> 00:49:40,386
You and I were a couple of drunks
on the sea of booze, and the boat sank.
527
00:49:40,556 --> 00:49:44,492
I got ahold of something that kept me
from going under. I'm not letting go.
528
00:49:44,660 --> 00:49:46,150
Not for you, not for anyone.
529
00:49:47,530 --> 00:49:49,657
If you want to grab on, grab on.
530
00:49:50,032 --> 00:49:53,126
But there's just room for you and me,
no threesome.
531
00:50:07,116 --> 00:50:10,085
I can't get over how dirty everything looks.
532
00:50:10,253 --> 00:50:13,017
Try it one more day.
533
00:50:14,457 --> 00:50:17,255
- Why?
- For her.
534
00:50:18,160 --> 00:50:19,889
Come and look at her.
535
00:50:31,507 --> 00:50:33,202
I can't.
536
00:50:33,576 --> 00:50:35,009
I can't.
537
00:50:40,283 --> 00:50:41,875
You better give up on me.
538
00:50:43,219 --> 00:50:44,481
Not yet.
539
00:50:46,522 --> 00:50:48,114
Thanks.
540
00:50:50,059 --> 00:50:51,617
Good night.
541
00:50:53,396 --> 00:50:54,988
Kirs?
542
00:51:01,304 --> 00:51:02,828
Take care of yourself?
543
00:51:14,150 --> 00:51:15,879
Kirs!
544
00:51:52,955 --> 00:51:54,616
Daddy?
545
00:52:04,233 --> 00:52:07,031
I thought I heard you call Mommy.
546
00:52:08,404 --> 00:52:10,804
You must have been dreaming, honey.
547
00:52:10,973 --> 00:52:13,032
Let's go back to bed.
548
00:52:18,447 --> 00:52:20,938
When is Mommy coming home?
549
00:52:24,286 --> 00:52:26,186
Honey, Mommy's sick.
550
00:52:26,355 --> 00:52:28,915
And she has to get well
before she can come home.
551
00:52:30,159 --> 00:52:32,218
Is she going to get well?
552
00:52:34,930 --> 00:52:36,761
I did, didn't I?
553
00:52:41,437 --> 00:52:43,098
Go to sleep.
554
00:52:43,506 --> 00:52:44,871
Okay.
555
00:52:45,608 --> 00:52:47,303
Night-night.
556
00:52:47,476 --> 00:52:49,239
Good night, honey.
557
00:53:28,784 --> 00:53:29,773
