00:03:03Hey, Ray. How's the wife?
00:03:06Well, I...
00:03:07How's the family?
00:03:10Ha ha ha ha ha!
00:03:20The first case I see here is Rearden v. Rearden.
00:03:28Will counsel please stand?
00:03:31For the petitioner, Your Honor.
00:03:33And for the respondent?
00:03:35Mr. Rearden, I ask you again. Where is your counsel?
00:03:39I fired him. I no longer contest any aspect of this divorce.
00:03:44Mr. Rearden, this court was prepared to render a judgment quite favorable to your interests, but...
00:03:49It's a mistake, Your Honor. She can have whatever she wants.
00:03:52We were impossible. We were like oil and water.
00:03:56I still love you.
00:03:57Me too. That's what made it so hard to leave.
00:04:00Until you hit me.
00:04:02I slapped you. I pushed your face with my...
00:04:04With your hand.
00:04:05Well, betrayal is not my best thing.
00:04:07Well, I know.
00:04:09I'm not the only guy who gets upset he finds his wife sleeping...
00:04:11Look, I wasn't strong enough to break away without it.
00:04:18He's a jerk.
00:04:20Of course he was a jerk.
00:04:23It's not easy to find someone like you.
00:04:26Try harder.
00:04:31Oh, God, I'm already jealous.
00:04:34I know you're going to find the right person.
00:04:37And when you do, she's going to be the luckiest woman alive.
00:04:52To a free man.
00:04:54There we go.
00:04:56Thank you. You never sleep alone.
00:04:59I told you not to marry her.
00:05:01You two had absolutely nothing in common.
00:05:03Forget in common, okay? She wasn't his type.
00:05:05Ray always went for brunettes.
00:05:07You're telling me.
00:05:09You're Larry's wife.
00:05:10Picky, picky.
00:05:11Plus, you're a lawyer.
00:05:12That's right. Ray likes artsy types.
00:05:14He likes them thin and dark and artistic.
00:05:16Right. So are we talking sex here or marriage or...
00:05:19What about love?
00:05:20Love?
00:05:21But in the long term, you're interested in a family, right?
00:05:24I want everything.
00:05:25The kids, the dog, Alvo.
00:05:28Whoa, whoa, whoa. Slow down on the family sport.
00:05:30I mean, first you get laid.
00:05:31Then you get laid.
00:05:32Exactly.
00:05:33There are many, many women out there.
00:05:36Ah. Lots of skinny women, even.
00:05:39Anorexics, yes.
00:05:41Dark, angelic anorexics.
00:05:43They're 33 years old.
00:05:44Their biological clock's a tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock.
00:05:47Come now! I'm ovulating!
00:05:52I'm fertile today.
00:05:54Just today.
00:05:56That is not time, Larry.
00:05:57It kills me to say it,
00:05:59but I'm going to agree with Norman on this.
00:06:01You are attractive. You are straight.
00:06:03You are not overtly psychotic.
00:06:06Oh, thank you.
00:06:08Listen, you just take your time,
00:06:10and don't you be a slave to your glandular reactions.
00:06:13By the way, have I ever mentioned
00:06:15that my family crest is actually a big gland?
00:06:20I rest my case.
00:06:23I am down on my knees!
00:06:26I am begging you!
00:06:28All right. This is humiliating.
00:06:31Are you deaf? Huh?
00:06:33I'm guaranteeing you 100% return in six months.
00:06:37You're my friend, Norman.
00:06:38Sure. That's why I'm bringing you the deal.
00:06:41You see, I'm going to loan money once, I'll do it again,
00:06:43and sooner or later, I'm going to lose a friend.
00:06:45Great. Well, so, I'm floating face-down.
00:06:49All right, look, you know,
00:06:51I wanted to emphasize the positive here.
00:06:53The money's not just...
00:06:55It'd keep me alive another 72 hours, okay?
00:06:58Would your friendship allow you to do that?
00:07:00I love this!
00:07:02How much for the investment?
00:07:04To save your life.
00:07:06Well, say, 20 grand.
00:07:11I'll give you half.
00:07:13You'll save half my life?
00:07:16I'll give you half.
00:07:18You'll save half my life?
00:07:19See, this isn't good. Between friends...
00:07:21Just forget the whole thing.
00:07:22No, no, I need the bucks. It's just that...
00:07:24I know you can afford more, and I'm wondering...
00:07:26This isn't my job to rescue you from yourself.
00:07:28All right?
00:07:32You're going to regret this.
00:07:34What?
00:07:35A year or two, fortunes could change.
00:07:37You could come to me wanting something.
00:07:41See? Now, see what happened here?
00:07:44It's the same with girls.
00:07:46A little friendly advice. Remember the girls I set you up with?
00:07:48Norman, those women were...
00:07:49I'll do better, okay?
00:07:50The point is, they told me.
00:07:51What you give off...
00:07:52You know, you're lonely. It's understandable.
00:07:54But it comes off needy,
00:07:56just like I was here in its bad technique.
00:07:59They said I was needy?
00:08:01Desperate.
00:08:02So long.
00:08:03They're throwing me a party next week, okay?
00:08:0534 years old and still an asshole.
00:08:07They said I was needy.
00:08:08Forget that. I'm trying to tell you something.
00:08:10I invited a girl there, brunette, Midwest, so forth.
00:08:12Perfect for you.
00:08:13Uh, please.
00:08:14Tits? Did someone say tits?
00:08:16Like pears.
00:08:18Huh?
00:08:19And not the hard green ones, either.
00:08:21The juicy camiche you get in the box from Oregon.
00:08:23Harry and David's.
00:08:24Norman, I'm coming to your party as your friend, all right?
00:08:27But please, promise me,
00:08:29you won't introduce me to any more women.
00:08:31Exactly my point, if you'd let me finish.
00:08:33Believe me, I can find her myself.
00:08:35Who says no?
00:08:36Hey, a safe doesn't have to fall on me.
00:08:38Huh.
00:08:39We still friends?
00:08:41Can I go back to work now?
00:08:46And thanks for the 20 Gs.
00:08:48Uh, uh, uh...
00:08:49Ten! Ten!
00:08:53After completing the novel,
00:08:55I went back to my work on the particle accelerator.
00:08:57What is that, microchip?
00:08:58Norman is the only person I know
00:09:00who can turn his birthday into a scam,
00:09:02and he's not paying food, drinks.
00:09:05He's providing the idiots, you know,
00:09:07who might buy the work of this artist.
00:09:10The artist, the cowboy?
00:09:11Of course that's him.
00:09:14Guns and buns.
00:09:16It's not that bad.
00:09:18I guarantee you, if there are any sales tonight,
00:09:20you know, Norman's friends,
00:09:21Betty's gonna get a piece out of him.
00:09:23Excuse me, but did he come to you about this crazy...
00:09:25Oh, the jackpot idea, 100 grand?
00:09:27Yeah.
00:09:28He got the money.
00:09:29What?
00:09:30Well, he must have,
00:09:31because, well, one day he was talking to me,
00:09:32and I mean, I'm a harder sell than you are, right?
00:09:34I got two kids, private school,
00:09:35but I ain't starting our own law firm.
00:09:37I wouldn't joke.
00:09:38The guy says...
00:09:39Hey, where you going?
00:09:46Are you Ray?
00:09:47Hey, did I...
00:09:49I'm Cheryl, Norman's friend.
00:09:53Right, that's right.
00:09:55Good to see you.
00:09:56I'm...
00:09:57Norman told me.
00:09:58I know, I know.
00:09:59According to him, we're practically engaged.
00:10:02Yeah.
00:10:09I just love a sense of humor in a man.
00:10:13You know, I think laughter
00:10:15is the greatest aphrodisiac.
00:10:18Don't you agree?
00:10:19In the right circumstances.
00:10:22You know, it's strange.
00:10:25I feel something.
00:10:27Do you feel something?
00:10:29I usually feel something.
00:10:30No, not like that.
00:10:32I mean, you know, when two people fix you up,
00:10:35you two will be perfect for each other,
00:10:38and usually it's just awful, right?
00:10:42Right.
00:10:43But just somehow,
00:10:44just this moment we're having right now.
00:10:48This moment?
00:10:49Yeah.
00:10:52Look, I don't want to be forward,
00:10:54but would you, you know,
00:10:56like to go someplace else?
00:11:01Yes, actually, I, um...
00:11:04Would you excuse me for a moment?
00:11:07I don't want to be rude, but, uh,
00:11:10there's something that I must tell Norman.
00:11:16So if you could, all right?
00:11:18Hey, will you look where you're going?
00:11:20Oh, Jesus.
00:11:21This is mine. You ruined,
00:11:22get your hands off me.
00:11:23It's bad enough you ruined my dress.
00:11:25I was just turning away from...
00:11:27You don't like me.
00:11:28No, no, no, no.
00:11:29What did he do to you?
00:11:31He is just unbelievably rude.
00:11:35You're not kidding.
00:11:36I was trying to say it was an accident.
00:11:39I was turning...
00:11:40I'll save it.
00:11:41Why don't you apologize first and foremost
00:11:43to your girlfriend and leave me alone?
00:11:45She's...
00:11:49Look, please,
00:11:50I'm sure you're a wonderful person, but...
00:11:58This jerk's funny.
00:12:02Hey, sport.
00:12:03How do you like my party?
00:12:04If you ever set me up with another woman,
00:12:06I'm gonna kill you, understand?
00:12:08Sure, sure.
00:12:09Why don't you say something for him?

00:32:37Uncle used to say
00:32:39Sissy, aren't you? Sissy?

00:33:27Of course I do
00:33:29Only doesn't life seem sometimes like this

00:35:23Marriages, well, I don't like it

00:35:46No, no, no boys

00:43:58Is that what she did to you
00:44:02She did things me I can't even pronounce
00:44:06Sorry, I'll give her this though. She always had it in her mind to marry somebody rich
00:44:13I
00:44:27Gotta go work
00:44:32What's her name her real name you don't know
00:44:38I
00:44:41Almost need her. She's still a family here
00:44:48You know
00:44:50Most folks find this stuff out beforehand
00:44:55Look that road there right on branch left on Hickory
00:45:02It's third house
00:45:04Another high from buddy
00:45:34Oh
00:45:41Yes, ma'am, is everything okay? Yes
00:45:49Is it safe for you to be here safe with your job
00:45:55I'm sorry. I'm misunderstood. Oh, you don't have to pretend sissy wrote us all about it
00:46:00Hey
00:46:10You got any recent pictures of Tina I do actually yes
00:46:16Well, I'll be put it in there Ray. It's good to finally meet you. Could you go and get us some coffee hot?
00:46:30Surprise.
00:46:37Thank you.
00:46:41I'm glad it's over.
00:46:45Dan, come see the baby.
00:46:49I have to go.
00:46:54When are you coming back?
00:46:57Come see the baby.
00:46:59Look at this.
00:47:04Y'all need any help out there?
00:47:06No, thanks.
00:47:09I'm in the CIA.
00:47:11I had to give them some reason why they couldn't visit.
00:47:14What about that story of your mother beating you and your father watching?
00:47:18Not true.
00:47:20There's lots of different kinds of abuse within a family.
00:47:23Right.
00:47:25But if the things that you tell me aren't true,
00:47:28then what is true, Lena?
00:47:31Who are you?
00:47:36I'm your wife.
00:47:44Called her sissy because we wanted to have another child, a boy.
00:47:50Of course, we never did.
00:47:52But sissy was always so, so beautiful that it didn't really matter.
00:47:58Still, when she wrote me that she was...
00:48:01Wrote us?
00:48:03Of course. That goes without saying.
00:48:05Well, then say it.
00:48:07She wrote us. She was changing her name.
00:48:10Well, naturally, I was insulted.
00:48:12We both were.
00:48:14But it was kind of a woman's lib thing.
00:48:17Women change their name for a man.
00:48:20Women change their name for a man when they get married,
00:48:23so why not change it for their own sakes?
00:48:26But she'll always be sissy to us.
00:48:39Your parents seem imperfectly decent people.
00:48:42Yep.
00:48:44Why'd you hide them from me?
00:48:46They're stuck.
00:48:48In Texas, in poverty.
00:48:51Can't you feel it? They were this weight dragging me down.
00:48:53If I'd have stayed there, I would have married that guy,
00:48:55but I would have had his kids.
00:48:57I would have drunk beer every night
00:48:59till I got really fat, ugly and bored.
00:49:02So I invented myself.
00:49:05I made up Lena Mathers, and I became her.
00:49:08They say you replace every molecule in your body every seven years.
00:49:12I changed my name eight years ago. No more Thelma Snyder.
00:49:18Aren't you going to give me credit for it?
00:49:21Doesn't it seem at least brave
00:49:23that I just became this completely different person?
00:49:26It makes me look at you in a completely different way.
00:49:29Me or you?
00:49:31Isn't the real question who are you?
00:49:33Are you really Ray Reardon,
00:49:35or is that the name your parents hung on you?
00:49:37Oh, you've always been a good boy.
00:49:39You've gone along with who Ray was supposed to be,
00:49:41done what Ray was supposed to do.
00:49:43But who are you? Where are you really from?
00:49:45What do you really want?
00:49:49Come here.
00:49:54I'm tired.
00:49:56I don't want to go to bed.
00:50:12I tried to tell you so many times, lying here like this.
00:50:19I'd say to myself,
00:50:23now we know, Thelma.
00:50:27I wish you had.
00:50:31I was afraid.
00:50:36If you knew the real me,
00:50:40I'd lose you.
00:50:42I'd lose you.
00:50:48She's a good girl now.
00:50:50Have a seat.
00:50:52She does.
00:50:54Goodbye.
00:50:59If you're not divorcing me, I'd like to send them money every month.
00:51:02Sure.
00:51:04Okay.
00:51:06Look at me.
00:51:09Tell me it's the truth.
00:51:12You know it is.
00:51:17No matter who you were, and no matter who you are,
00:51:19and no matter who you will be,
00:51:21I'm in love with you.
00:51:32From now on, better than ever.
00:51:39Okay.
00:51:44I love you.
00:51:47Announcing the landing of Flight 250 from Hyrum, Texas.
00:51:51Now better than ever.
00:51:53You're late, Ray. The show's already started.
00:51:56Ray!
00:51:58Ray, my boy!
00:52:00You're looking grand!
00:52:02You like these, huh?
00:52:04And this?
00:52:06Tell me, Ray.
00:52:08Tell me true.
00:52:10Am I the girl of your dreams?
00:52:12Actually...
00:52:14Of course not!
00:52:16Look! Lookie here!
00:52:18Some guys look at the eyes.
00:52:22Some guys look at the thighs.
00:52:25I just look at the purse.
00:52:27How about that?
00:52:29You like it, Ray? Sure you do!
00:52:32Recognize her yet, huh?
00:52:34And now, the moment we've all been waiting for.
00:52:37The moment which will determine Ray Redden's fate.
00:52:41Here she is, folks!
00:52:51And last but not least is...
00:52:54Baby Bob! Yeah!
00:52:56For those of you who don't remember Bob Baby
00:52:58from last year's Cutie Pie contest,
00:53:00well, he wasn't born yet.
00:53:02Okay, and now it's...
00:53:04Tina, cute as ever, yeah.
00:53:06And Lena, cuter than ever.
00:53:08That's right. All right, come on now.
00:53:10That's it. Don't save it, baby. Feel the burn.
00:53:12Atta girl. Okay, and...
00:53:14Pinhead Ray, that's right.
00:53:16Pinhead Ray with the perfect life.
00:53:18He's got the perfect wife, the perfect family.
00:53:20Why, he's got everything a man could possibly want
00:53:22except a Wednesday afternoon golf game
00:53:24and, well, a cute young mistress.
00:53:26But never mind that now. He doesn't have time for any of these things.
00:53:28Stop it, Norman. That's not funny.
00:53:30Thanks, German Judge Lena. It's not funny.
00:53:32So now we come to our legal beagle, Elaine,
00:53:34and her client, Bernardo from West Side Story,
00:53:36and... a post.
00:53:38That is a great post, buddy.
00:53:40And now let's turn the camera on.
00:53:42This guy, yes. This is a stupid guy.
00:53:44This is a guy who can't make a living.
00:53:46This is... this is, uh...
00:53:48You're a pain in the ass. Thank you, Ray.
00:53:50Thank you.
00:53:52This is a guy who's going in way fast.
00:53:54This is... this is, uh...
00:53:56A pain in the ass again. Thank you, Ray.
00:53:58A pain in the ass. A pain in the ass.
00:54:00Stop me? I can't be stopped.
00:54:02That's why somebody shoot the camera.
00:54:04Christ's sake.
00:54:06Tell me twice.
00:54:08Hey, where's the beer?
00:54:10So, uh...
00:54:12How's everything since we talked this morning?
00:54:14Come on.
00:54:16Now, come on. I haven't seen Lena in a while.
00:54:18She looks great. You're right.
00:54:20She looks great. Four months after giving birth,
00:54:22she looks really great. Very, very great.
00:54:24And I'll be honest with you... Yes?
00:54:26No, I won't, actually.
00:54:28I changed my mind and I will not be honest
00:54:30because it's just that
00:54:32I think I saw somewhere where
00:54:34for them, giving birth is like having an affair.
00:54:36That's what I mean. It gives them a glow.
00:54:38A glow, yes.
00:54:40So she's alive again in a whole new way
00:54:42and that's beautiful if so happens.
00:54:44You, by the way, can kiss my ass
00:54:46and that'll make us both happy.
00:54:48It's the strangest thing. See for yourself.
00:54:50Well, Bernardo?
00:54:52Well, it doesn't look like him to me.
00:54:54I rest my case.
00:54:56He doesn't look like either of his parents.
00:54:58I think he was switched in the hospital.
00:55:00Oh, I'm sorry. Is that what happened?
00:55:02Did some drunken nurse switch you?
00:55:06There you go.
00:55:08Good night.
00:55:10Good night.
00:55:12Good night, sweetie.
00:55:24I can't.
00:55:30Oh, I told you I couldn't.
00:55:32Of course I won't.
00:55:34It's just...
00:55:38You just have to be patient.
00:55:42Yeah? Uh-huh.
00:55:46I absolutely guarantee it.
00:55:50Are you okay?
00:55:54Okay.
00:55:58Bye.
00:56:04Debbie.
00:56:08She wants me to go see those male strippers.
00:56:12That should be fun.
00:56:18Could you try her again, please?
00:56:20I just did, sir.
00:56:24Keep trying her every ten minutes
00:56:26until you reach her.
00:56:28Yes, sir, but it's Wednesday.
00:56:30I have that funeral tomorrow, so I'm leaving early.
00:56:34Just keep trying, please,
00:56:36until you go.
00:56:38Yes, sir, of course.
00:56:50I love these late dinners after the kids are asleep.
00:56:52You have a bruise on your leg.
00:56:54Christ.
00:56:56Where'd you get it?
00:56:58My shrink says I should...
00:57:00Why do I always have to go through this?
00:57:02I'm clumsy, I bruise easily,
00:57:04and I don't want to talk about it every time I bump into a chair.
00:57:06Did you cook this?
00:57:08No, it's takeout.
00:57:10Why didn't you cook?
00:57:12What?
00:57:14Why didn't you cook?
00:57:16Because cooking gets boring. Why didn't you cook?
00:57:18I work all day.
00:57:20Why didn't you cook?
00:57:40I hope you enjoy these psychotic episodes.
00:57:42So you go to his place?
00:57:44Excuse me?
00:57:46You fucking met his place?
00:57:48Yeah.
00:57:54Open it up.
00:58:00Did your secretary tell you I called today?
00:58:04At noon.
00:58:06I was out on site.
00:58:08I called back all afternoon.
00:58:14I had this fantasy of coming to your office
00:58:16at your desk.
00:58:18I guess the fantasy was misplaced.
00:58:20When you weren't there, I went to my shrink's
00:58:22and then I went to Debbie's.
00:58:24If you don't believe me, call Debbie.
00:58:26Want to call her?
00:58:32Go ahead.
00:58:40I'm ashamed.
00:58:42And you didn't leave a message.
00:58:46You won't leave a message here.
00:58:50You're sick.
00:58:52Get some help.
00:59:12Ray.
00:59:14What do you want, Ray?
00:59:20I know what you want.
00:59:26Pretend it's all a dream.
00:59:44Sorry, I'm late, everybody.
00:59:48Are you the temp?
00:59:50Yes, sir.
00:59:52Alice Keller.
00:59:54I'm Ray Reardon.
00:59:56I guess my secretary left.
00:59:58Have we met?
01:00:00No, sir.
01:00:02I don't believe we have.
01:00:04Yes, we have.
01:00:06Wait.
01:00:08You're friends with my wife, right?
01:00:10Yeah.
01:00:12You're friends with my wife, right?
01:00:14Lena?
01:00:16Sure you are.
01:00:18Lena Mathers. You were at our wedding.
01:00:22Tell me.
01:00:30What a nice idea to meet in the park.
01:00:34You recognize that woman?
01:00:42Yeah.
01:00:50You hired a temp to be your friend?
01:00:52A person's supposed to have friends, right?
01:00:58Everyone has friends.
01:01:00When you told her what the job was,
01:01:02you were laughing at me, making fun of me.
01:01:04She didn't understand.
01:01:06See, it wasn't just that I became Lena
01:01:08and Lena happened to meet you.
01:01:12I chose you.
01:01:16I first saw you five years ago in New York.
01:01:22Party on the west side, riverside,
01:01:24in the 90s up there.
01:01:26I saw you,
01:01:28and somehow I knew.
01:01:30I knew you were it.
01:01:36I was still married.
01:01:38Then later I heard you'd left your wife.
01:01:42A friend of mine, Mimi Moore,
01:01:44knows Nerman,
01:01:46and so she got information from him.
01:01:48Information?
01:01:50What kind of things you like, what kind of woman you like.
01:01:52Wait a minute.
01:01:54So what you've pretended...
01:01:56Just a few things, just the outside.
01:02:00Like putting on new clothes
01:02:02or a new perfume.
01:02:04Personality is a perfume.
01:02:08Sure.
01:02:10You like somebody, but it's not the thing you fall in love with.
01:02:12Is it?
01:02:14I don't know.
01:02:22Is this the end?
01:02:26I can't keep opening my heart to you
01:02:28and getting...
01:02:30Isn't that what love is?
01:02:32I don't mean passion.
01:02:34Love.
01:02:36Isn't an act of faith
01:02:38loving someone
01:02:40despite having to put up with things which are intolerable?
01:02:46Opening your heart
01:02:50again
01:02:52and again.
01:02:58She's right.
01:03:00I mean, are you perfect?
01:03:02No, but you want to be loved anyway, right?
01:03:04Love her anyway.
01:03:06It's how we save ourselves
01:03:08by loving people.
01:03:10I mean, I could tell you some stories about Elaine.
01:03:12It's just I feel like a fool.
01:03:14No.
01:03:16We're all fools in love.
01:03:18Aren't we?
01:03:20You...
01:03:22Follow your heart.
01:03:28Thanks, man.
01:03:30Yeah.
01:03:33This is what friends are for.
01:03:41Hal, they're being very generous.
01:03:43I just... I just don't need the work.
01:03:45You should lower the pitch.
01:03:47Just... All right. Okay.
01:03:49Listen, on that other matter, just forget it, okay? Let's settle.
01:03:51Yeah. Okay.
01:03:53He's always in the car.
01:03:55Just a very... Also, Sally,
01:03:57we should call Mr. Murr, please, all right?
01:03:59Yes, sir. Also, your wife's visa bill
01:04:01is here instead of the house.
01:04:03Lena handles the money. Why would they have sent...
01:04:05Apparently it's a new card, and I made a mistake.
01:04:07Okay, so pay it, and I'll ask her about it tonight.
01:04:09Do you want to look it over?
01:04:11No.
01:04:15Should I?
01:04:32What day of the week was May 27th?
01:04:34A Wednesday, sir.
01:04:50Why don't you call my house, please?
01:04:52I did, sir. She's not home.
01:04:54Try the Hotel Chanticleer.
01:04:56Yes, sir.
01:04:59Lena Reardon, please.
01:05:04She's checked out.
01:05:29You got the keys?
01:05:31Oh, good girl.
01:05:35Hi, sweetie. Be careful.
01:05:37Hi.
01:05:39I put a snack on the table.
01:05:41Oh, good. That's a good boy.
01:05:43Hi.
01:05:45Hey.
01:05:47Hey.
01:05:49Hi.
01:05:52Jean, take the kids out.
01:05:54What?
01:05:56Take the kids outside, please.
01:05:58Where will I take them?
01:06:00Anywhere. The park.
01:06:02Yes, sir.
01:06:04Come on, Tina.
01:06:06Oops. Come on.
01:06:08Tina, come on.
01:06:15Is it really necessary to throw a scene
01:06:17every single time?
01:06:19Is it really necessary to throw a scene every single day?
01:06:28What's that for?
01:06:49What's that for?
01:07:13He threw away the bill.
01:07:15What bill?
01:07:17Every fucking Wednesday.
01:07:22I throw it away.
01:07:40Let me ask you this.
01:07:42Why weren't you more careful?
01:07:44Why didn't you get a second diaphragm?
01:07:47I mean, leaving evidence around like this, it's sloppy.
01:07:49Why didn't you use a prophylactic?
01:07:51Sometimes we do use a prophylactic,
01:07:53and sometimes I just give him a blowjob.
01:07:57I always knew you were abusive.
01:07:59I do you, you do me.
01:08:01Who is it?
01:08:03Don't you know?
01:08:05Can't you guess?
01:08:07Debbie.
01:08:11Debbie's an answering machine.
01:08:13That's right. Just a woman's voice.
01:08:15Someone's saying they're Debbie.
01:08:17Who the fuck is it?
01:08:19You know him better than I do.
01:08:21Well, in some ways you know him better,
01:08:23and in other ways I know him better.
01:08:26What?
01:08:28Aren't I telling you what you've always suspected?
01:08:30What you've always wanted to hear?
01:08:34What else do you want to hear?
01:08:36Want to hear how good it was?
01:08:38Stop it.
01:08:40It was fucking great.
01:08:42His cock is so huge.
01:08:44Come, come.
01:08:47And the amazing thing is, really,
01:08:49all this time you never suspected.
01:08:51All the time?
01:08:53The whole time, Ray.
01:08:55Even before we were married.
01:08:57All my bruises.
01:09:01The whole time?
01:09:03What about the kids?
01:09:06Are they mine?
01:09:09Do you know?
01:09:11Of course I do.
01:09:14Whose are they?
01:09:20I loved them, and I raised them.
01:09:24Yes, you have.
01:09:27But I'm still not going to tell you.
01:09:44Is that all?
01:10:14Wednesday.
01:10:16Wednesday.
01:10:18No, man, it's fucking half-game.
01:10:32Mr. Reardon, who are you?
01:10:34I'm a cop.
01:10:36I'm a cop.
01:10:38I'm a cop.
01:10:40I'm a cop.
01:10:42Mr. Reardon, who are you?
01:10:44I'm Dr. Steinlein, a psychiatrist.
01:10:46What the fuck happened here? Where's my wife?
01:10:48She was hysterical.
01:10:50I am here to evaluate your mental state.
01:10:52My mental state?
01:10:54If you're a danger to your wife,
01:10:56we can have you committed for 72 hours observation.
01:10:58Get the fuck out.
01:11:00Officer!
01:11:06What the fuck's this?
01:11:08Take him away.
01:11:105150.
01:11:22You will be held for observation
01:11:24according to Welfare and Institutions Code 5150.
01:11:28You may use the telephone,
01:11:30wear your own clothes,
01:11:32and you may petition the court
01:11:34at any time for your release.
01:11:36I don't care what kind of law you practice.
01:11:38I don't care what it costs.
01:11:40I want out of here right now.
01:11:42The law? Fuck the law.
01:11:52And now, baby cakes,
01:11:54the moment you've all been waiting for,
01:11:56the moment which will determine
01:11:58Ray Reardon's fate,
01:12:00here she is, folks!
01:12:02That's right, Ray.
01:12:04It wasn't your second wife.
01:12:06You should have stayed with Martha.
01:12:08Come on down! Come on!
01:12:10Give her one last dance!
01:12:36Come on!
01:12:54Hi, sweetie.
01:13:02How are the kids? I miss them.
01:13:04Just peachy.
01:13:06Want to go for a walk?
01:13:12I can't believe they let us out together.
01:13:14Oscar will protect me.
01:13:16Facility ain't this expensive.
01:13:18What if I fly into a rage
01:13:20and attack you?
01:13:22You're sedated.
01:13:24I am?
01:13:26I don't feel sedated.
01:13:28That's because you're crazy.
01:13:30So, what are you doing here?
01:13:34Friday's your hearing.
01:13:36I wanted to tell you,
01:13:38whichever way it goes.
01:13:40Whichever way it goes?
01:13:42I know it's dangerous.
01:13:44I know it's crazy.
01:13:46They aren't going to keep me in here.
01:13:48I just wanted to say,
01:13:52Ray,
01:13:58in spite of everything,
01:14:00I love you.
01:14:04I really, truly love you.
01:14:08Norman will be disappointed.
01:14:10Yeah.
01:14:12You've seen who I really am.
01:14:16You've seen more than anybody ever.
01:14:20And you kept on loving me.
01:14:30You're a psychopath.
01:14:36Probably.
01:14:40Psychopaths can still love somebody, can't they?
01:14:52Your Honor.
01:14:54Counselor.
01:14:56My client's been off medication for 36 hours.
01:14:58Yes, of course.
01:15:00The staff should be bringing him in any minute now.
01:15:18Mr. Reardon, you requested this writ hearing.
01:15:20Yes, Your Honor.
01:15:22You're being incarcerated against your will.
01:15:24And Dr. Spatz, the hospital recommends?
01:15:26It's a perplexing case, Your Honor.
01:15:28I suspect an atypical psychosis,
01:15:30but I need more time to evaluate.
01:15:32180 days additional.
01:15:34Wait a minute.
01:15:38Considering the danger to his wife, yes.
01:15:40That's what I'd recommend.
01:15:42Mr. Reardon,
01:15:44you understand this is a legal proceeding,
01:15:46but I find it very useful
01:15:48if the patient testifies first.
01:15:50Your Honor, we prefer...
01:15:52I'm glad to hear it.
01:15:54You're saying that your wife created a character and identity
01:15:56so you would fall in love with her.
01:15:58Yes.
01:16:00And she was guided by your friend this Norman...
01:16:02Yes.
01:16:04...who she slept with throughout your marriage at this...
01:16:06Hotel Chanticleer.
01:16:08And she'd call him sometimes on the phone
01:16:10and pretend it was this, um,
01:16:12fictitious girlfriend, Debbie.
01:16:14I mean, this sounds so crazy, but...
01:16:16No, no, no, not at all.
01:16:20But, um, the discovery of all this
01:16:22before time made...
01:16:28I hit her.
01:16:32I've never done that before.
01:16:34And the idea that I pose
01:16:36some sort of permanent danger to her
01:16:38is just ludicrous.
01:16:40I understand.
01:16:42I think any of us making that sort of discovery...
01:16:46Uh, right.
01:16:48Now, let's see
01:16:50what the other side has to say.
01:16:52I'd like to call
01:16:54Dr. Steen, please.
01:16:56Dr. Steen, as Mrs. Reardon's psychiatrist,
01:16:58do you find that her husband poses
01:17:00a threat to her life?
01:17:02I've thought so for some time.
01:17:04Mrs. Reardon has been seeing me for several years,
01:17:06and on many occasions
01:17:08she's had visible
01:17:10and very alarming bruises.
01:17:12When I asked her about them,
01:17:14she said that her husband hit her.
01:17:16That's bullshit.
01:17:19I've advised Lena
01:17:21frequently
01:17:23to go and see the police.
01:17:25So when this latest incident occurred...
01:17:29Your Honor, may I?
01:17:49Al, I told you before,
01:17:51I never hit that high.
01:17:53She's done this to herself.
01:17:55I'll take care of it.
01:17:59Then Mr. Reardon's accusation
01:18:01is about you and his wife.
01:18:03Look, I'm an asshole, Your Honor.
01:18:05Can I say that?
01:18:07All right, see,
01:18:09I've always been an asshole, but this?
01:18:11Even if Lena wanted me...
01:18:15Well, I probably couldn't resist,
01:18:17to be honest.
01:18:19Once I could have.
01:18:21I mean, look at her.
01:18:23But to carry on this long?
01:18:26Ray is my friend.
01:18:31Besides, every Wednesday afternoon
01:18:33for the last ten years,
01:18:35I've played golf.
01:18:37Oh, I brought some letters
01:18:39from my golf buddies.
01:18:41Some, uh...
01:18:48Then these bruises,
01:18:50have you seen them before?
01:18:52Sure.
01:18:54And are you aware of any other examples
01:18:56of violence, particularly towards women?
01:19:00What was that?
01:19:02Um...
01:19:04Ray's first wife, Martha,
01:19:06when they broke up, he slapped her.
01:19:09I'm sorry.
01:19:11Your Honor,
01:19:13that was four-and-a-half years ago.
01:19:15So noted, Counselor.
01:19:17And your name?
01:19:19Debbie Tribium.
01:19:21And what is your relationship?
01:19:23I'm just, uh...
01:19:25I'm a friend of Lena's from dance class,
01:19:27and she calls me on the phone sometimes.
01:19:29Have you met Mr. Reardon?
01:19:31No, I haven't.
01:19:33I don't know him.
01:19:36Have you met Mr. Reardon?
01:19:38Sure, a couple of times.
01:19:40I had dinner there,
01:19:42once I dropped by.
01:19:46Debbie,
01:19:48you work for a temporary agency.
01:19:50Excuse me?
01:19:52Do you?
01:19:54I own a cookie shop on the north side.
01:19:56Chocolate chip, oatmeal raisin.
01:19:58Okay, then describe
01:20:00the Reardon's apartment.
01:20:02Uh, it's a penthouse apartment
01:20:05with, um, cathedral ceilings.
01:20:07Um,
01:20:09the living room is on the right,
01:20:11kitchen's on the left, and, uh...
01:20:13All right, all right.
01:20:17Mr. Reardon, you're a distinguished architect
01:20:19without a blemish on your record.
01:20:21There's no history of any mental illness.
01:20:23I'm sane, Your Honor.
01:20:25You look sane, you sound sane, sir.
01:20:27But everything you say seems to be a delusion.
01:20:30Frankly, I'd like to believe you.
01:20:32But without a witness or some sort of corroboration.
01:20:35Your Honor, what about her bills?
01:20:37The Hotel Chanticleer, every Wednesday.
01:20:39$333, $379.
01:20:44Mrs. Reardon?
01:20:46Your Honor, I went to this Hotel Chanticleer,
01:20:48and, um, I have a letter from the manager
01:20:50saying he's never seen me before,
01:20:52that I'm not the Lena Reardon he knows.
01:20:54Then who's responsible for these charges?
01:20:56I must have used that credit card once or twice
01:20:58and then lost it.
01:21:00I didn't realize it was missing until a few days ago.
01:21:02I called the company,
01:21:04and they sent over copies of the charges
01:21:06if you'd like to compare signatures.
01:21:08Uh, that's not necessary.
01:21:10What?
01:21:12I'm sorry, Mr. Reardon.
01:21:14You're sorry? You're sorry?
01:21:16This is my wife we're talking about.
01:21:18I'm aware of that, sir, and I'm doing you a favor.
01:21:20If you weren't in this hospital,
01:21:22your wife could have put you in jail.
01:21:24But, but, but, sir, that's not what this is about.
01:21:26I mean, don't you see what she's doing?
01:21:28She's stolen my children.
01:21:30She's stolen my house, and she's manipulating you.
01:21:32Mr. Reardon, that's enough.
01:21:34Get your fucking hands off me.
01:21:36I'm warning you, sir.
01:21:38Oh, fuck you, all right? You've already made up your fucking mind.
01:21:40Very well, then.
01:21:42Proceed.
01:21:44Just watch it.
01:21:46You have no idea who you're dealing with.
01:21:48She lies to me,
01:21:50and she tells a different lie to you.
01:21:52I'd be happy to take a polygraph test.
01:21:54You're fucking right she'd take it.
01:21:56She's not a machine. She is a machine.
01:21:58Mr. Reardon. I'm a machine. You married me.
01:22:00I married you, and I loved you, and you're fucking killing me.
01:22:02Hands up.
01:22:04Hands up.
01:22:06Get on your foot if you want to execute me.
01:22:08Your Honor, please.
01:22:12Here, take this.
01:22:18Don't let us wear these in here.
01:22:20Get your fucking hands off me.
01:22:26How are we doing today, Ray?
01:22:36God bless pharmaceuticals.
01:22:42You know what my daddy says?
01:22:48My daddy says there are no accidents,
01:22:52that we all get exactly what we deserve.
01:22:56Exactly what we want.
01:22:58Your daddy's wrong.
01:23:00Talk about it.
01:23:06Family makes you crazy,
01:23:08and friends ease the pain.
01:23:12Right, John?
01:23:14Yeah, that's what friends are for.
01:23:18That's what...
01:23:20friends...
01:23:26are for.
01:23:56It's Ray.
01:23:58Visit me soon,
01:24:00and don't tell anybody you're coming.
01:24:10Go to bed.
01:24:26Good night.
01:24:42Ray?
01:24:44Ray, it's Elaine.
01:24:48I'm here.
01:24:52Is it all right if I take him outside?
01:24:54With the drugs he's on,
01:24:56he couldn't hurt a fly in December.
01:25:00Come on.
01:25:02You called me, right?
01:25:04I'm sure it was you.
01:25:06Well, look,
01:25:08I've been doing some work on my own
01:25:10to get you out of here,
01:25:12but this is a very weird legal area.
01:25:14I...
01:25:16Thanks for coming.
01:25:18You know why I'm in here, right?
01:25:20Well, I was wrong about Pullman,
01:25:22What was Larry?
01:25:24Larry's been fucking Elena.
01:25:26Is that possible? For a long time?
01:25:28Four or five years.
01:25:30It's possible, but I...
01:25:34It's more than possible.
01:25:36It explains...
01:25:38It would explain a...
01:25:40I think the two of them are trying to get my money.
01:25:42Yes.
01:25:44And go to New Zealand.
01:25:46What?
01:25:48What?
01:25:50He bought a house in New Zealand
01:25:52without my knowledge.
01:25:54It was a down payment
01:25:56we couldn't afford, and when I found out
01:25:58about it, he told me that it was some kind
01:26:00of an investment.
01:26:06Don't ever tell him you know.
01:26:08I won't.
01:26:10Make his life
01:26:12misery.
01:26:14Believe me.
01:26:20I want to retain
01:26:22your legal services. Is there any way
01:26:24you can be forced to reveal this conversation?
01:26:26No.
01:26:28Good. Then tell me if this will work.
01:26:30What?
01:26:36Lena, it's Elaine.
01:26:38I'm out here visiting Ray.
01:26:40No, he's sedated.
01:26:42He's silent.
01:26:44But he did say this one thing.
01:26:46He said
01:26:48He said
01:26:50you made a mistake.
01:26:52I don't know, but he
01:26:54kept repeating it. He said
01:26:56you made a big mistake.
01:26:58You forgot something.
01:27:00Yeah, that was all.
01:27:04Okay.
01:27:06Yeah.
01:27:08You too.
01:27:12I don't know, Ray. Maybe.
01:27:14Maybe not.
01:27:16Okay, Ray.
01:27:18I'll see you soon.
01:27:20Good luck.
01:27:36Billy.
01:27:38Billy, wake up.
01:27:40Talk about it.
01:27:42Okay.
01:27:44What's my name?
01:27:46John.
01:27:48What's your name?
01:27:50John.
01:27:52Do you want $100?
01:27:54American money?
01:27:56You bet.
01:27:58I'll remind you every night
01:28:00and one day I'll tap you on the knee
01:28:02and you'll know what to do.
01:28:04Okay?
01:28:06Okay, John.
01:28:12Okay.
01:28:36I'm ready.
01:28:38I'm ready as rain.
01:28:40I'm ready as Robert.
01:28:42Don't worry about me, John.
01:28:50Oh, hi.
01:28:52He's over there.
01:29:04Ray?
01:29:07That's how he is.
01:29:17Go ahead.
01:29:37Happy birthday.
01:29:56Timber!
01:29:58Jesus, Billy!
01:30:00Who woke you up? Get off of me!
01:30:02Get off!
01:30:07Your old boyfriend, Buddy,
01:30:09his father had his mother committed.
01:30:11Is that where you got the idea?
01:30:13Maybe.
01:30:15So everything was planned.
01:30:20Well done.
01:30:32I just think it's wonderful
01:30:34that you've come.
01:30:36Thank you so, so much.
01:30:38It came because of some bullshit you told Elaine.
01:30:40There's a flaw in my plan.
01:30:42Speaking of plans, I must ask,
01:30:44are you really going to New Zealand with Larry?
01:30:46Larry?
01:30:48When I'm done with him, he'll wish he was you.
01:30:50What are you gonna do with my kids?
01:30:52Take your kids with me and tell them you died
01:30:54or maybe I'll just leave them.
01:30:56I don't think so.
01:30:58You still don't have the faintest clue
01:31:00who I am or what I do.
01:31:02Likewise.
01:31:06God, you are so beautiful.
01:31:08Ravishing.
01:31:10You okay?
01:31:12Never better.
01:31:16Never, never better.
01:31:33What are you doing?
01:31:35Well, this is the last time
01:31:37we're gonna see each other, right?
01:31:39Right.
01:31:41I want to thank you with all sincerity.
01:31:43I've been sleepwalking my whole life
01:31:45and you've woken me up
01:31:47and I feel alive now.
01:31:49You're fucked.
01:31:51Yes, but I'm alive and inspired.
01:31:53I mean, you saw your plan with such clarity,
01:31:55such ruthlessness. Well done.
01:31:57Let me go. No.
01:31:59I'll scream.
01:32:01No, you won't.
01:32:03Why won't I?
01:32:05Because everyone will come running
01:32:07and you won't get it.
01:32:09Get what?
01:32:11What you want.
01:32:13What you deserve.
01:32:17I mean, you deserve to know
01:32:19all the flaw in your plan.
01:32:21You were so good at it.
01:32:27And you might want to do it again.
01:32:32Okay, tell me.
01:32:38Kiss me first.
01:32:40What?
01:32:42Kiss me and I'll tell.
01:32:44Only it has to be a real kiss.
01:32:48Something to remember.
01:32:54We don't need Oscar.
01:32:56We don't need anyone.
01:32:58We don't need anyone.
01:33:03Kiss me.
01:33:07And I'll release you.
01:33:19Who are you, Lena?
01:33:21Huh?
01:33:24Who do you be when you die?
01:33:28You don't have the guts.
01:33:30Don't I?
01:33:32No, Ray.
01:33:34You're too practical. What about the consequences?
01:33:36There are no consequences.
01:33:38That's the flaw
01:33:40in your plan.
01:33:42I'm crazy.
01:33:44You've driven me crazy.
01:33:46That was the whole idea.
01:33:48Well, crazy people aren't responsible.
01:33:50Crazy people aren't legally
01:33:52responsible.
01:33:56I'm not guilty by reason of insanity.
01:33:58In a year, I'll be sane again.
01:34:00And they'll have to let me out.
01:34:20I'm sorry.
01:34:50I'm sorry.
