taking
a new formula.
I've only nine more weeks
of the protocol.
It's funny how you don't appreciate
somebody until they're gone.
I'm not gone. You're gone.
What do you want to talk about?
It's about our contract.
You got a couple of minutes?
Not really.
I really need to talk to you.
I feel so humiliated.
Don't be. People get sick all the time.
There's no need to be ashamed.
I feel like I lost control
over my body.
Control's important
to you, isn't it?
What do you mean?
Same three shirts,
week in, week out.
Same coat peg,
same wash basin.
That odd little ritual with
the liverwurst and apple every day.
I like order.
What's wrong with that?
Nothing.
It's just an observation.
And I don't like being sick.
Is there anything wrong with that?
No. It's just that men...
-Men what?
-They're pathetic when it comes to pain.
You should try being a woman sometime.
It's a nightmare.
Your body goes peculiar with your period
and doesn't stop until menopause.
It's a lifetime
of leaking and swelling...
and spotting and smears.
Crippling cramps,
raging hormones, yeasts!
And that's if
everything's normal.
- I never wanted to be a woman.
- I'm just saying.
That's perfectly normal.
Not to worry.
Just stay off your feet. Use an ice pack
for a few minutes every hour...
and call me in the morning.
- Larry!
- No, it's okay. That's why I'm here.
- Lar!
- All right. Bye-bye.
Look at this.
Leave 'em alone.
- Don't snap at me.
- Angela, this is my house now.
Larry, you may live here. You may die
here, but this will always be my house.
Floral, houndstooth,
then paisley.
Alex, Angela.
Angela, Alex.
Colleague of mine.
Nice to meet you...
God, excuse me.
Charmed.
- I'm going upstairs to my bedroom.
- Yeah.
He's going through
a confusing time.
I'm letting him stay here
for a couple of weeks.
- So what do you want?
- I don't like Sneller.
Angela, we've been over this.
Ned Sneller is a top, top guy.
He's creepy, Larry.
I'm not goin' back to him.
- You're bein' ridiculous.
- No, I'm not.
I can't deal with this.
Where's the goddamn father?
- I haven't been able to reach him.
- He disappeared?
They're touring. I don't know.
Europe, Asia? I can't remember which.
Who is?
Aerosmith.
One of Aerosmith
knocked you up?
What a lovely phrase, Larry.
Oh, excuse me.
I'm a little shocked here.
- You're gonna have to deal with it.
- I don't have to deal with it.
We're divorced. Remember?
It's not like I'm asking you
to fix my car.
All right. Call Louise in the morning,
and she'll fit you in.
- Thank you.
- Angela.
I am happy for ya.
Thanks, Lar.
- What's the matter?
- She was daddy's little girl.
Don't the pictures of
your lifetime deserve Kodak film?
- Now he's giving her away.
- Come on.
- Come on. Get a grip.
- Okay.
Physically, you're in tiptop shape.
Everything's right on track.
- All right, one more week. That's it.
- Okay.
I'm sorry. I'm just not myself.
- Just relax. All right?
- Yeah.
Don't wait up for me tonight.
I'm gonna be late.
Why? Where are you going?
To the pharmaceutical convention at
the Hyatt. I'm meeting the Lyndon guys.
- The convention is tonight?
- Yeah. I told you it was tonight.
Oh, Larry, please take me with you.
No. You stay home.
Get back in bed
and just take it easy.
You don't understand.
- I do understand. No!
- Please, listen to me.
- No. It's bad for business.
- I'm pregnant and all alone.
Will you stop saying that?
You're not pregnant pregnant.
You got to think of this
as an experiment.
Think of it like you swallowed
a piece of gum. A tiny piece. Dentyne.
Look, I won't be in your way.
I'll take walks. I'll disappear.
Please, I feel so isolated.
Oh, all right.
Okay, you can come.
But don't do that thing
with your eyes.
- I can come?
- Yeah.
Oh, Larry.
But I have nothing to wear.
Oh, I'm starting
to get a little headache over here.
I feel we could make
a definite contribution here.
