the value of promises!
-Your word didn't do too well
on this last outing!
-Yours is fine!
It's certainly a lot better
than your cheque!
[All Murmuring]
I'll get you
your money back!
I don't want the money!
This is my house, and I'm not moving!
It's a big house!
We'll divide it up!
You stay in your half,
I'll stay in mine!
That is such a dumb idea.
Sometimes it amazes me
you ever passed the bar.
I'm sure it does.
You've never passed a bar in your life.
You are so much less attractive
when I'm sober.
-Thank goodness it's not that often.
-All right, that's it!
I've had it with you, the house,
Max, the orchestra and everything!
How long will it take
to put this place together?
-Two weeks.
-[Workers Laughing]
[Man Laughing]
Two weeks! Two weeks.
Okay, we'll stick it out
until the house is finished.
Then we'll sell it, get our money back
and get the hell away from each other.
Fine.
Get back to work!
[Murmuring, Chattering]
Bam! Zoom!
[Sobs]
[Speaks French]
[Speaking Vietnamese]
What are you doing here?
-You missed a rehearsal.
-That's right.
-Did you tell Walter
what happened between us?
-Yes.
And what
did he say?
Walter and I are through.
-I hate us both.
-You'll get over it.
-You'll come back to me.
-No.
I'm just going away
someplace.
You can't go anywhere.
We have performances.
You don't understand. I have to
get away from here, from both of you.
You are leaving
the symphony?
What have I done?
Oh, it wasn't your fault.
It was my fault.
I was weak.
No, you weren't.
What?
I made it up.
You made what up, Max?
You slept in the bedroom.
I slept in the living room.
Sex would have been
a miracle.
Oh, Max!
I wanted you back, and I truly thought
I could make you happy this time.
Oh, Max.
Tell Walter the truth.
No.
He couldn't forgive me,
and I can't forgive him for that.
He's lost a wonderful woman,
and I know what that's like.
I've lost many.
-You must hate me.
-No.
I used to hate you.
Now I hate Walter.
Lucky guy.
[Workers Chattering]
-Walter!
-Well, this is an unexpected revulsion.
Are you hot?
Can I take your life?
I can see
that my presence here...
could be construed
as in poor taste.
-No!
-Do you realize what you've done?
You've taken
a woman who loves you...
one of the great women
on the face of this Earth...
and thrown her away.
I've lost her too, but I'll get over it
because I am shallow and self-centred.
But you, you won't
because you are complex.
You will suffer terrible anguish
for the rest of your life.
This is turning out to be
a pretty good day.
-Good day.
-## [Whistling]
Smooth strokes.
Up and down.
Paint,
don't tickle.
And don't smoke.
## [Whistling Continues]
Well, folks, I guess this is
hasta "so-long-a."
[Chuckles]
You know,
just between us...
there were a couple of times
when I didn't think we'd ever be
able to put this baby back up.
-But it, uh, it turned out.
-It's beautiful, Curly.
It is, really, much better
than I imagined.
Thank you.
That's very nice of you.
One more job, though.
Here's your key.
It's the only one I've got.
Who wants it?
Hmm?
Well, I'll just put it
on the bannister here.
You'll have no trouble
selling this place, that's for sure.
-Shirk Brothers'll give you
a million for it tomorrow.
-Great.
No, this wasn't an easy one, but the
foundation was good, I'll say that.
And if that's okay,
then everything else can be fixed.
Well, goodbye, folks.
Good luck.
[Door Opens, Closes]
Well, this is it.
Are you going
to spend the night here?
No. You?
I'm already packed.
I'd better get packed
myself.
I'll get my bags.
Walter?
Walter?
This step.
This... This was our step.
This is where
it all started to...
Turn to crap.
[Sighs]
Too late to put it
back together, isn't it?
You slept with Max,
and I don't care.
What?
I don't care.
Well, I care, but not enough
