Did your mother do anything about it ?
- She tried...
but she couldn't help.
You never, ever...
let an attractive woman take
a power position in your home.
- lt's very bad business.
- A power position.
You heard what l said.
What's that saying ?
- ''The hand with the baby...'' that...
- Hey, Marl ?
How much did you get for
the Fletcher house last week ?
Three...
and change.
All l'm saying is
you have to watch your back.
l'm serious !
There's too much pressure.
A woman can feel like a failure if
she doesn't bring in 50 grand a year...
and still make time for
blow jobs and homemade lasagna.
Marlene's not
much of a cook.
Marlene, l think l'm
gonna bum one of these.
You're such
a bad influence.
He only smokes
around you now.
- One isn't gonna kill me.
- Oh, l got it.
''The hand that rocks
the cradle...
is the hand
that rules the world.''
You wanna look
at the baby ?
Ahh, look.
Hi !
Ahh, look, honey.
- Boy or a girl ?
- Boy. His name's Joe.
- How old ?
- Three months.
He is beautiful.
- Thank you.
- He has your eyes, you know.
Do you really
think so ?
Absolutely !
Do you have
any other children ?
Yes, he has a sister.
Her name's Emma.
She looks more like
her father though.
We have one more too,
don't we, sweetheart ?
- Peyton.
- Hi, Emma.
Tell me, which one
is he ? Where ?
Take that !
- The one with the blue
and gray striped shirt ?
- Mm-hmm.
Okay.
[ Arguing ]
- Watch it, Trippy !
- Sorry, Roth.
Ouch ! My arm ! My arm !
l got a message for you, Roth.
Leave Emma alone.
lf you don't, l'm gonna
rip your fucking head off !
Ow !
l get it, ma'am.
Let me go !
Don't forget it.
[ Girl ]
Awesome ! Wow, that was cool.
Ha-ha ha-ha-ha.
Secret club.
Good morning.
What's the matter ?
You're not hungry,
sweetheart ?
Shh-shh-shh.
Claire, l thought...
maybe you could use
a cup of coffee.
Oh, thanks.
- Peyton ?
- Yeah ?
Have you noticed anything
different about Joe ?
No, l haven't.
Why, is something wrong ?
No. l was just wondering.
l'm real tired. Michael was up all
night finishing his E.P.A. proposal.
- l got up at 4:30 to help him type it.
- l hope it works out.
- Good morning.
- Good morning.
- See you tonight.
- You're not gonna have pancakes ?
Nah, l've got to go to Federal Express
before l go to the lab.
Let me. That's the last thing
you need to worry about.
You have the time ?
My proposal has to go out today.
Okay. Thanks.
l love you.
- Bye-bye.
- Bye, Michael.
[ Peyton ] How long have you
been volunteering here ?
Gee, about seven years.
These days, l mainly take care
of the morning maintenance.
- Hi, Claire.
- Hi, Stan.
Kinda like a big
botanist family here,
- right, Stan ?
- Yep.
We sit around talking
about root rot,
drainage properties of shredded bark
and other topics like that.
[ Peyton ] ls your greenhouse gonna be
something like this one ?
Oh, well, hopefully.
On a much smaller scale.
l've always loved
growing anything.
When l was little,
my parents thought l was crazy.
They thought l should've
been born on a farm.
[ Cooing ]
Hey !
Ohh !
Hello.
Hello !
Do you have relatives
in Seattle ?
Oh no.
No, l don't.
My husband
was my only family.
He's the only one who ever...
really understood me.
He took care of me.
He was murdered.
Murdered ?
They never caught
who did it.
But l firmly believe...
what goes around,
comes around.
ls there a
bathroom here ?
- Yeah, down through there
on the right side.
- l'll be right back.
Come here,
little one.
Do you need
to be changed ?
[ Wheezing ]
[ Wheezing ]
Come here.
[ Wheezing ]
Michael's proposal. l can't find it.
lt was in your purse.
l saw you put it in there !
- Claire, are you all right ?
- Asthma. l'll be okay.
Asthma.
Michael, it...
just disappeared.
l retraced my steps. l spoke to
the manager in the restaurant.
He said he'd call
in the morning.
What did they say
when you called again ?
They said they'd
