Little Orphans (2020) Movie Script

(soft piano and cello)
Gwen: Hey!
Janet: Hi!
Welcome back!
You waiting a while?
-Yeah.
I mean, sort of.
No Kay?
Not yet.
You okay?
Huh?
Yeah!
Did Kay tell you
Mom's coming?
Mom's coming?
Well, if Kay thinks Mom is
coming, at least she'll show up.
-How do you
think she'll be?
Difficult.
Hi!
(Kay laughs)
Yeah!
Oh my God.
You look amazing!
What is this?
Kay: Oh!
Baby Janny!
(Janet laughs)
(big kiss)
Where's Mom?
Janet: Arrives tomorrow.
Shall we?
Janet: That's all
you brought?
I can wear
Gwen's stuff.
(soft piano)
Kay: Hi!
(Uncle Bill laughs)
Hello sweetheart!
Gwen: Still Uncle
Bill's favourite.
Janet: She reminds
him of Mom.
Maureen: Well,
they made it, yeah?
Janet: Hi.
Maureen: Hi.
Kay: Hi Aunt Maureen.
Maureen: Sit.
Kay, you're too thin.
Sharon says hi!
Hi Sharon!
Yeah, they can't
wait to see you too.
Okay.
Bye.
Where's Billy?
Maureen: She's at Sharon's.
Kay: Okay, well
let's go get her.
She's staying there tonight.
We've got that big
party at Greg's parents'.
We didn't want to get her
hopes up until we knew.
Knew what?
Jesus Christ, Maureen.
I'm her mother
for fuck sake!
Maureen: Language!
Till we knew what kind
of shape you'd be in-
if you managed
to show up at all.
You smell like a
brewery, by the way.
That's weird.
I haven't had
any beer today.
Anyway, I'm on vacation!
It's not vacation if
you're coming home.
(Gwen laughs)
(Maureen sighs)
(soft piano)
(bath water)
Gwen: So Billy spends a
lot of time at Sharon's.
Maureen: What?
She likes being
at Sharon's.
Maureen: Really though,
we should've had her here.
You hurt Kay's feelings.
Maureen:
Believe it or not-
Kay's feelings are not my
main concern at the moment.
Gwen: What
happened with Kay-
taking her up to
Calgary with her?
It didn't work out.
I don't know how stable
things are for her up there.
Gwen: Right.
Janet: We
couldn't take her.
This year has
been hard.
And the renos were
supposed to be finished-
a hundred million
years ago.
And I never would've
even started them-
if I'd known that the house
would still be totally fucked
by the time the
wedding came.
It's just a lot.
I never said anything.
Well, someone is going to have
to be responsible for her-
at the wedding.
I'm going to be
up to my eyes.
Janet: Okay.
Don't look at me!
Kay can do it.
(Maureen scoffs)
Janet: Well, maybe
Tom could do it.
My Tom?
He's not your
Tom anymore.
And Billy is not
Tom's responsibility.
She's not my responsibility!
Gwen: She's not
my responsibility!
Why would
Tom do it?
He's actually been
really great with Billy.
Gwen: What?
Maureen: He comes
by every so often.
Takes her out.
Why?
Janet: Tom was
really happy-
when Kay and Billy were
living with you guys.
Oh my God.
She's Kay's child.
Honestly, I don't think it's
good to tip toe around her.
You can be responsible for
Billy at the wedding, right?
Yeah.
There you go.
Where'd you
get the lipstick?
The bridesmaid's
dresses are really pretty.
We can make any last minute
alterations tomorrow.
Wait till you hear
my speech, Jan.
I don't want you
to say a speech.
Is Gwen?
-No.
I don't care if Gwen
says a speech.
I don't want you
to say a speech.
I don't want to
say a speech.
So you can-
Kay: What time does
Mom's flight get in?
Did you know Janet
paid for Mom's ticket?
Kay: Really?
How much money do
nurses make now, anyway?
How did you afford
all our tickets?
You paid for
Mom and Kay?
Can we just
drop it?
Stop eating the
chocolates, Kay!
Fine!
(Maureen sighs)
Maureen: You know
what your sister's like.
Your mother's worse-
if anything.
Well, we're all here.
That's the main thing.
Mom's not.
Kay, just so
you know-
Greg's parents are
kind of conservative.
(Kay laughs)
Read you loud
and clear, Janny.
(phone ringing)
Gwen: Jesus, who
keeps calling you?
Rudy.
He's obsessed with me.
It's complicated.
Hi!
Greg: Hey,
how are you?
(kiss)
Hey!
Fuck!
Off!!
Rudy!!!
Gwen: Jesus, Kay.
Hi.
(kiss)
How are you?
Richard: Cheers to you.
Linda: Thank you.
-You look- (kiss)
You look great.
-Thank you.
-You look nice.
Hey!
How are you?
Nice to see you!
Janet: Richard.
Richard: Janet.
Good to see you.
Janet: Good
to see you.
Linda: Hello dear.
Linda.
(kiss)
These are my sisters.
Linda: No!
Kay and Gwen.
Welcome!
Thank you, it's
nice to be here.
-Welcome.
-Gwen.
Nice to meet you.
Linda: And your mother?
Oh, yes.
She's getting in tomorrow.
-Oh.
That's the earliest
she could get here.
Because of work.
-Oh.
Kay: (scoffs) Work?
Mom?
She'll be at
dinner tomorrow.
Jigg's dinner!
Richard: Nice!
Where's the bar
in this dumpster?
(Kay laughs)
Just kidding, obviously.
What a beautiful
home you have.
The bar is
right over here.
Help yourself.
Ah, say no
more, Rich!
Interesting decor!
Linda: Well, it's
a duck motif.
Kay: Duck motif?
How original!
(Kay laughs)
Linda: Oh!
That's a goose, dear.
Shut up!
One last chance left
You and your
liquor store flowers
Georgie, this one's Kay.
And that one's Gwen.
Kay: Yeah.
Okay.
Kay: Nice to
meet you, Georgie.
Georgie.
Georgie: Yes, Georgie.
Nice to meet you.
(rock music)
Gwen: So you're
a groomsman?
Hey!
Richard: Hi!
Kay: How's it going?
Richard: How are you?
Oh! Just fine.
Yeah, It's amazing
down here.
And you have more
ducks up here too.
Yes, that's my motif.
Welcome.
Do you want
to dance?
Yeah, fuck it.
Let's dance! Jesus!
-I'll take your lead.
Okay.
(Kay laughs)
Okay.
And you won't
give it to me
But you still
won't let me leave
But I got
a knife
It's got designs
Gonna cut the line-
and change it all
(Kay laughing)
I'm bending backwards
in strange ways
It's like there's
springs on my hips
I'd put away
the bowling ball
Drop the ham radio
Swallow the bazooka joe
For your kiss
Tom: Hey, man.
Congratulations.
Tom.
-Congratulations.
Thanks.
-Hey, Georgie.
How're you doing?
Hey.
You're back.
Yeah, I didn't have
a choice, really.
It's-
Uh-
Yeah.
Oh my God!
Hey, Tom!
He's here!
Say yes say no
Where's Maureen?
She wasn't sure if she'd
be feeling up to it.
Really?
Greg: Listen, it means a lot
to Janet that you're here.
I've got this
big family.
And she's got-
She's a lot
to handle.
Kay: She's a
lot to handle?
Or she's got a
lot to handle?
-Both.
Don't be afraid
So you didn't like grow
up in this house?
Is this your
family house?
No, no, we live
downtown.
Richard: Hi.
Greg: Hey.
Can I bum one?
Didn't you quit?
Well-
Quit buying them!
Yeah, just a quick
puff, alright?
You alright?
Just a second.
Dad, here.
Okay.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
(laughter)
He would have
killed for that.
(Jan sniffs)
Were you smoking?
No.
(laughter)
Linda: Go
ahead! Kiss it!
Alright, here
comes the cod!
Okay, here you go.
Ah, kiss it!
(applause)
Ah, that's
not so bad.
You've kissed worse
than that, I'm sure.
Okay.
'Deed I is,
me ol' cock!
And long may
your big jib draw!
Now, put it
on your head.
(cheers and applause)
Well done!
Kay: Oh my God.
Fuck this.
Gwen: Did you
try any of those-
like, little tiny, circly-
Like, I guess they're
mushrooms, but-
Yeah, with the little red
thing in the middle?
Yeah, they were deadly.
-They were gross.
They were gross.
(laughter)
They were disgusting.
Rudy thinks I should
confront Mom.
That it would be important
for my personal growth.
Who's Rudy?
He's your therapist, or-?
Like, look at us.
She did permanent damage,
the way she treated us.
Taking off
all the time.
And I know what
you're thinking.
But I am
trying with Billy.
It's not exactly easy-
when Maureen's got her
under fucking lock and key.
And Janet's
off her rocker.
I guess that you probably
think that you're fine.
That you're over it.
But I guarantee
you that you aren't.
And repressing shit
gives you cancer.
I'm going to do
it at the wedding.
Confront her.
-That's a
really bad idea.
What's it going
to prove anyway?
She's never
going to change.
Where'd you get
her lipstick?
From our spot.
From when
we stole it.
-Maureen's really got to
start throwing shit out.
You stole it.
I got in trouble.
I got in
trouble too!
That was an
awful day.
-No! I love
that day!
It was so thrilling.
And Aunt Maureen gave us
that sex pamphlet, remember?
-That wasn't
the same day.
Yeah, it was so.
I'm staying.
I'm not going
back to Calgary.
I've been trying to
get my shit together.
I know no one
thinks I am.
But I am.
I know that
it's hard.
And that maybe
you're trying.
No, Gwen.
I am trying.
Well, why not actually
move home this time?
Actually move home?
What's that
supposed to mean?
Why don't you
fucking move home?
-We should
probably get back.
(ding ding ding ding)
Hi!
Hi, I just wanted to
thank Linda and Richard-
for welcoming our family into
their beautiful, baller mansion!
And for welcoming
our little baby sister-
little Janny,
into their family.
(applause)
Linda: Oh!
Well, welcome!
Welcome.
Welcome, everyone.
When Janet first started
showing up, I said to myself-
I am not going to get close to
any more of Greg's girlfriends!
Because I just
get close to them.
And then
they'd be gone!
And so I said,
no more.
But Janet kept
coming around.
And after three years-
Well, she's in the
family now, I suppose.
Well, she will be,
in a couple of days.
So, welcome.
Welcome!
(applause)
We love you
so much, Greg!
Greg: I love you.
Linda: I love
you too, darling.
(quiet music)
(Kay at piano)
Hey.
Hi.
Who you looking for?
It's really thinned out.
Yeah, let's go downtown.
Greg: Fuck yeah, bud.
Fuck yeah, bud.
Let's go!
Janet.
This isn't like him.
Sweetie.
Here.
I know.
I know.
Greg doesn't
drink like this!
He can just stay
with us for the night.
Janet: Honey, it's
time to go home.
Look, he's just nervous.
It's pre-wedding jitters.
Janet: I'll go
get our coats.
Kay: He had
two beer.
Actually no, four.
Do you get it?
This is it
Gwen.
Let's go.
Greg: I love you
so much, baby.
Catch 22
And then too
many more come
Oh, please!
Greg was never
a drinker?
Remember safe grad, when
he beer-bonged a full case?
Keep dreaming, Linda!
Janet: Kay,
get in the car!
Gwen, keep an
eye on her, okay?
Gwen: Kay can
take care of herself.
Janet: Just make sure
she doesn't disappear.
Kay: We're only going to
Diane's party for one drink.
(car starting)
(loud electric guitar)
Liar, cheater, loser
Liar, cheater, loser
Liar, cheater, loser
Liar, cheater, loser
Kay.
Kay, we should go.
Yeah, totally!
Just- soon.
We'll go soon.
So what are you at
in Toronto anyway?
(music changes)
(Kay screaming)
You left to go
to school, right?
Uh- no.
I left to just get
my shit together.
You married?
-Diane.
No.
So did you?
Get your shit
together after?
-Where's the
bathroom in here?
No.
No, I'm good Kay.
Thank you.
And who do
you think you are
Who do you
think you are
to call me down?
Tom.
No.
Sure?
-No, I'm good.
Yeah, man.
Thanks.
Okay, on three!
One! Two! Three!
All: Whooo!
Kay: Cheers!
Diane: Cheers!
Kay: Whoo!
Diane: Whoo!
Making out in
a ruined room
Remember baby
when we were two
Kay: Light?
It isn't hard to
push it farther
It isn't hard to
get through to you
But how
does it happen?
How does this happen?
Is it me
is it you?
Is this just
what we do?
And who do
you think you are
Who do you
think you are
to call me down?
I know who you are
I'm out on the edge
Nobody knows me
Out on the edge
where nobody loves me
Everybody takes
a piece away
Let me give you
a piece of advice
I'm everything bad
when you cross me twice
You'd be better
You just stay the
fuck out of my way
(phone chiming)
Hello?
Janet: You're late.
Where are you?
And Kay?
What?
Oh I don't-
-The fitting!
I think she's
still here.
Janet: You think?
Sorry.
-One thing I asked.
Oh, what time is it?
-It's 9:15 !
Fuck.
We're already
15 minutes behind!
Sorry.
Yeah, sorry.
Okay.
-Now!
(Gwen sighs)
Kay?
(Tom groans)
Kay!!
Man: Shut up!
Woman: Shut up!!
What's up?
We're late for
Janet's fitting.
She's really
losing her shit.
So, I'll take you.
My car's just parked
down the road.
That's okay.
You don't have
to do that.
No, I'll take you.
You don't mind?
-I don't mind.
I should never
even fucking-
Gwen: Time
to go, Kay.
We're late for that
fucking fitting.
Kay!
Now.
Tom is taking us.
Kay!
God, I'm coming!
Chillax, Maureen.
I'll see you after?
(kiss)
Sorry!
Traffic was really,
really crazy.
You guys fucking suck.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry but my inner
clock must be on Calgary time.
Oh, is that
what happened?
We're here.
What more
do you want?
Come on!
(jazz music)
Diane: God that was
a time last night!
Kay: Oh my God!
How do you
look so good?
We just left
your house!
Are you going at anything
tonight or what?
Yeah.
I'd say.
Ughhh!
I'm not wearing this.
Janet: What?
What's wrong?
Kay: It's accentuating
all of my problem areas.
You look good, Kay.
I swear.
I can't wear this.
You look fine.
Janet: You have
to wear this!
Oh, I have to?
What is this?
Saudi Arabia?
Oh my God!
You are such
a psycho!
Kay, just wear it.
It doesn't matter.
It does matter!
Gwen: I know, Janet.
If you think I'm going
to be seen in that-
you're out of your
fucking mind.
I didn't come back
here to be badgered
and paraded around
like a goddamn clown.
Kay.
Janet: Jesus Christ.
Where are you going?
(Diane sighs)
I'd say I've
seen a better fit.
But I've seen
worse, too.
(Gwen sighs)
Gwen!
You're still here.
Did you see Kay?
No.
Fuck.
Good fitting?
Yeah, really top notch.
You want to
go for a drive?
Yeah.
Come on.
Let's go.
Kay: Hey!
Hey!
Hey.
Woman: Oh my gosh.
Those are brand new.
Didn't even notice
they were gone.
Thank you!
Yeah, you've got to
keep their feet warm.
I'm a Mom
too, so-
Oh! Okay.
(music box chiming)
(stone falling from dashboard)
Tom: Oh!
Gwen: What-
(Tom laughs)
was that?
Okay.
Your worry rock.
-They're meditative.
Here, look.
No one needs
to know.
It's just something to
rub in your pocket!
They're not worry rocks.
(Gwen laughs)
Whoo!
Wow.
Look at that.
It's beautiful.
You know,
looking at it-
Who wouldn't
want to live here?
-I guess me.
I just don't understand
what Toronto could
possibly have to offer you.
I don't know why anyone
would want to live here.
-Come on.
It's home.
Not for me.
Do you have
a job there?
Bartending.
-Seriously?
Mm-hmm.
It's a good gig.
It's a nice spot.
I make the schedule.
You couldn't
do that here?
Tom.
-I'm serious.
Hey.
I'm serious.
Why?
Why stay there?
I have peace.
Oh yeah.
Peace.
What horseshit.
Maybe.
(Gwen sighs)
Thanks for coming
here with me.
I didn't have anywhere
else to go, so-
Gwen: Hey.
Kind of you to grace us
with your presence.
Janet: Perfect.
Thank you so much.
Boxes are finally ready.
You're back.
Thanks for leaving
me at the bridal salon.
We can go now
pick them up now.
Gwen: Pick what up?
Artisanal boxes
for the centerpieces.
That won't work.
My mani-pedi is
in a half hour.
You're here!
Where else
would I be?
And Billy needs to be
picked up at preschool.
I really need to
get cleaned up.
Maureen: Janet.
You go get your
nails done.
I'll drop you.
Then swing over to LeMarchant
Road and get the boxes.
Gwen?
Can you go pick
up Billy at preschool?
Kay: Why?
Maureen: It's
just down the road.
I can go.
I'll do it.
Great, Kay
can do it.
Kay: Why not?
I'll go with you.
Maureen: Great.
(soft guitar)
Do you think it would've
been different for us-
if Maureen was related?
Like, blood?
Probably not.
She never liked me because
I remind her of Mom.
Well yeah, Mom is
definitely a fucking asshole.
But I don't think
you're like her.
Maureen thinks
I'm like Mom.
Are you nervous
to see her?
No.
Are you?
I don't know.
I don't want to
think about it.
I've never not
wanted to see her.
It's just never
been up to me.
You're excited.
You brought
it up, loser!
Thank you for
coming with me.
Maybe neither of us
has to be like her.
Maybe.
(knocking)
Put it out.
Hi!
Can I help
you ladies?
Uh- yeah.
We're here to
pick up Billy.
We haven't seen
you here before.
Oh yeah, we
don't live here.
(knocking)
Hey baby!
She's right there!
We do need clearance
from a guardian-
if someone new is
collecting a child.
Oh, well that's Kay.
Kay is her mom.
Worker: That
may be true.
But we do
need clearance.
Oh may it?
Oh my God!
You want me to
take a blood test?
Kay, let's just let me get
Maureen on the phone.
We'll figure this out.
I'm just going
to call Maureen.
(Gwen sighs)
Maureen: I'm rotted.
Kay: Billy!
Hi Baby!
Maureen, why am I
not on that list?
Maureen:
The two of you.
Now I'll be late
getting the turkey in.
Come on, dear.
Let's go.
Kay: Billy!
Billy! Billy!
Janet: So just put all
the white ones in here.
And then the green and
pink over there for now.
Gwen: And the silver
ones in there?
Kay, are you
going to help?
Oh my God.
Remember when Mom
went out with Robert?
Oh and Gwen,
you saw his dick.
So gross.
I don't remember him!
You lived with Maureen
when we lived with him.
And I didn't see
his thing, you liar.
Okay, Maureen.
And you did so!
No, it was just-
he was always
wearing jogging pants.
And his dick would be like
constantly jangling around.
(Kay gags)
(Janet laughs)
His name was-
Roger.
Robert.
Roger.
-Rob.
Rodger.
Rodge.
Rodge.
Oh yeah, right on.
Jogging pants Rodge.
Mm-hmm.
She was beautiful
then and everything.
We should all go to
the airport to get her.
I don't
need to go.
It would be nice
if we all went.
Supper will be late.
But that's like
European, right?
Oh, I hope Greg's
parents like her.
She can be funny-
charming.
Yeah, it's just Greg's
parents are so hoity-toity.
Well I mean, yeah.
They can be snobs.
But they've got
zero class.
Janet.
Mom will be Mom.
But it'll be fine.
(Billy playing)
I'm going to
jump in and fly!
(soft piano)
(Gwen sniffs)
(Gwen chuckles)
(Maureen sighs)
Hey.
Um-
I haven't been well.
Did you know that?
No.
No.
Why would you?
Billy is-
Well, we love
her, but-
There's not enough years.
Enough health.
Our time with her
is full of joy, but-
We just
can't manage.
It's as simple
as that.
-I'm not sure I'm the one you
should be talking to about this.
There is no reason why that
child can't be with family.
I'm not her mother.
I just mean she should
be with her mother.
There's no reason she
can't be with her mother.
I'll talk to Kay.
She should know better.
Right.
(Maureen sighs)
(crows cawing)
(dog barking in distance)
Sorry.
I just needed
a minute.
Sure.
Well, you're here so-
dig in.
But if you want a
good crop of garlic-
you've got to put the
work into the garlic.
Like this?
Yeah, that's good.
Janet: Remember the
junk she used to feed us?
Mac and cheese
like every night.
Like, actually shameful.
Kay: No bedtime.
Gwen: Yeah.
Honestly, like-
Gwen: Yeah but look at
how well we turned out.
(Kay laughs)
Kay: Oh my god.
Remember when she took us out
of school to see Harry Potter?
And all the
teachers were like-
trying to give us
shit for leaving.
I'm like-
Uh, yeah, take it up
with our guardian.
(Janet laughs)
Oh my God, Jan.
Remember your fifth birthday?
Not really.
Kay: At the
bowling alley?
More than we ever
got, hey Gwen?
Anyway, Mom didn't
show up, of course.
Janet, you disappeared.
And I finally found you
outside that chicken place.
Gwen: That wasn't
a chicken place.
Kay: No, they had like
the chicken and taters.
Okay, then- uh-
Kay: Anyway Janet,
I found you there.
And you were
like, crying.
Like crying and
crying and crying.
I was like, come
in, you know?
Like, open your presents.
Cheer up.
And you wouldn't budge.
You said you felt
too homesick.
And I was like-
Well, we're going to be
heading home soon anyhow.
And you just sat there
until everyone left.
My God, Kay.
Your baby's breath
ratio is inscrutable!
Kay: Huh?
(phone chiming)
That's her flight.
Here.
You can mix some
white and some pink.
Kay: I like this one.
Well it doesn't
matter if you like it.
You can't just do
whatever you want.
Janet: Let's go.
We can finish
this later.
(soft music)
Guys!
Let's go!
(Kay sighs)
(soft music)
Janet: Something
must've gotten mixed up.
I hope she's okay.
She's always okay.
Why the fuck did you make
us all come to the airport?
Kay-
Kay: Like, why did
you even invite her?
Janet: It's my
wedding, Kay.
Kay: You are
so deluded!
Thinking she would
actually come?
Gwen: Kay!
Kay: What a fucking
waste of money!
It's a fucking waste.
Here you go, Billy.
Some more apple.
(kiss)
Oh good.
You're back.
I'm going to take
off and get dessert.
(phone chiming)
It's just the caterer.
Okay.
Well, I won't
be long.
My God, fuck her!
Who needs her Jan?
Seriously.
Fuck her!
It's okay.
This is the last time
she ruins our day.
Okay?
Fuck her!
(kisses)
Oh my God!
Hey, my little Janny.
I can't believe our little baby
is getting married tomorrow!
Yeah?
It's going to be
so good Janny!
Forget her!
Fuck her, man!
(kiss)
Hey Billy, look!
She's getting married tomorrow!
(kisses)
Right?
Hey baby.
Woop!
Ohhhh!
(Kay laughs)
What are you eating?
Gwen: Careful, Kay!
(phone chiming)
Is that her?
Huh, Janet?
(Billy crying)
Kay: It's okay.
Janet.
Billy: Momma!
Momma!
(thump)
(Billy wailing)
Jesus Christ, Kay!
It was an accident!
She slipped!
-What did you
think would happen?
My God Janet, can
you look at her?
You okay?
Janet: She's fine.
(Kay sighs)
That was Mom.
She's not coming.
(Kay sighs)
Billy: Momma?
Momma?
(soft music)
(Kay crying)
Fuck.
Fuck.
(knocking on door)
Just a sec.
(dinner chatter)
We were so looking forward
to meeting your mother!
Maureen: Well, I
can't say I'm surprised
She just got stuck.
It was a work
thing, last minute.
She's hoping to get here for
tomorrow for the reception-
or- you know-
at least.
You know, actually-
I heard they were calling
for weather tomorrow.
I guess that's
what I get-
planning a winter wedding.
You know
what they say-
If the weather
doesn't suit you-
If you don't like
the weather-
just wait five minutes.
-just wait ten minutes!
Yeah.
Jesus, Kay!
Oh my God, what?
I'm here!
Janet: Guys.
You're going to give
Janet an ulcer.
I'm fine.
So what-
you're going to play house with
Tom for the next 24 hours?
And then leave and never
speak to any of us again?
Yeah.
Well, at least I'm
not a deadbeat.
Gwen.
Maureen: Kay!
Colourful bunch.
Radio: Strong winds are expected
across the Avalon Peninsula
tonight and tomorrow.
A high wind
warning is in effect.
Gales expected to increase
to 120 kilometres tomorrow-
with gusts
up to 160.
That's a severe
weather state.
I have a boyfriend.
In Toronto.
Just so you know.
I'm sorry.
Coming back
here for me-
It's like-
too much.
-Hey.
(soft music)
These blankets stink.
They're meant
for the dog.
Why do you
visit Billy?
I don't know.
Because I like her.
Hmm.
Where are we?
-I mean- this is-
This is my land.
Wow.
Yeah.
We start building at
the end of the month.
Dad's going
to help me.
Wow.
That's going to
be a lot of work.
(Gwen sighs)
We should
really get going.
It's like a wind
tunnel up here.
(soft violin)
(bathtub running)
(Gwen coughs)
(Gwen coughs)
Oh fuck!
(Gwen sighs)
(Gwen sighs)
(Gwen sighs)
Are you awake?
(Kay groans)
I fucked Tom.
You slut!
He showed
me his land.
What?
Like he waxed
all his pubes off?
What?
(Gwen laughs)
No!
What?
He's got land
in Portugal Cove.
Oh!
I'm sorry about earlier.
That was really bad.
With Billy.
-It was an accident.
Remember when
Billy was a baby?
When you guys lived
with me and Tom?
-Yeah.
I was pregnant.
What?
Miscarriage?
-Oh.
Does Tom know?
No.
Anyway.
I'm sorry I wasn't
here for you then.
Do you think I
should tell Tom?
Fuck no.
(wind)
Tom: Can you
draw this guy?
Come on!
(Billy laughs)
Wow!
Whoah!
My turn!
Boop!
(Billy laughs)
Your turn!
Yeah!
(Tom laughs)
-I want to
use orange.
-You want orange?
Yeah, I like that!
Whoah!
That one looks cool!
(Billy laughs)
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay, listen.
I've got to go.
Okay.
Bye.
What's up?
Do you like
living in Toronto?
I don't know.
Yeah, I guess.
Maybe things could
work for me up there.
I thought you
were staying here.
Well, yeah I am.
I just- I mean
like, eventually.
Maybe Toronto could
be a good place.
And Billy could
come too.
Once I got settled.
Think you could
get me a job?
At the bar?
Yeah.
Um- it's a pretty
small place.
So?
Well we aren't
hiring right now.
Well it could just be a
couple of shifts to start.
And you expect to be
able to make ends meet-
off a couple
of shifts?
I don't know, Gwen.
I could
figure it out.
Toronto is really expensive.
You seem to
manage alright.
Well anyway, it
wouldn't be fair-
to just take shifts
from somebody.
Oh my God, okay.
Forget it.
I don't know that Toronto would
really solve your problems.
My problems?
I just mean you wouldn't have
the support you have here.
Okay, don't worry, Gwen.
I won't saddle
you with Billy.
That's not-
Can everyone just get off my
fucking back for a second?
I'm going through
a really hard time.
Okay.
(Kay sighs)
Let's just get
through this wedding.
And when I get back
to Toronto, I can-
Just don't bother.
Just- whatever.
I'm good, okay?
Yes, I'm staying.
Can everyone just
get the fuck over it?
This is too
much blush.
(Jan sighs)
Shouldn't you go
meet the guys?
It's fine.
All I have to do
is put on a suit.
-And fix your hair.
Is my hair
really that bad?
I just don't want your
mother looking at me today.
-You don't want my
mother to look at you?
Your mother thinks
that I'm trash progeny.
(Greg sighs)
Jan.
She doesn't.
She loves you.
(Jan laughs)
Honestly.
I really don't
think it's fair.
My mother is not the
problem right now.
Right.
I knew she
wouldn't come.
I mean,
Gwen said it.
But-
I love you.
(phone chimes)
(Janet sighs)
They'll be here
any minute.
(kiss)
(kiss)
(soft music)
(wind and waves)
Tom: Wow!
Maureen: You're up!
Where's the sugar, Maureen?
-Right here.
What are you doing?
Getting her lunch.
And you're
giving her sugar?
Cinnamon toast.
It's going to be
a long day, Kay.
She needs some
good food.
Cinnamon toast is good!
You go get ready.
Billy: That's my frog!
Yeah! I know!
That looks good!
Billy: What did you put
on half of the picture then?
Oh!
Oh, he's
going to fall!
Look, he's
on the back!
You look beautiful.
I'm sorry things aren't
going the way you planned.
It's just embarrassing-
(Janet sighs)
her not coming.
I mean, it's not like it would
actually change anything-
if she did come.
It's not like I
actually care.
You got a smoke?
Yeah.
If Greg's mother came in and
saw me smoking right now-
I'd probably
just end it.
She'd just
look at me-
and think-
I knew it.
Then I'd just have to run
away to Mexico or something.
-All because you
had one smoke?
(Janet sighs)
She'd think-
Of course she smokes.
And then give
me that look.
Who cares about Linda?
You don't live here.
You don't have to care
what people think.
No one cares about
today like you do.
Yeah.
That's become abundantly clear.
I just mean no one is
watching that closely.
Please.
People will be talking
about this forever.
Her absence.
We should've hired someone
to play Mom for the day.
An actor or something.
We should've thought of that
when we were toddlers!
(they chuckle)
(Janet sighs)
(wind)
And now comes
the weather.
(Janet sighs)
(organ music)
Where is Kay?
She said she
had to run home.
What?
Why?
-I don't know.
You couldn't stop her?
-I'm not Kay's keeper.
Maureen: Put that
old idiot box away.
What?
The TV is the idiot
box, Maureen!
I beg to differ!
Oh my God!
It's not, like,
up for debate!
There you are.
Why aren't you ready?
I told you I'm not
wearing that thing.
Did you think
I was kidding?
Janet: Kay!
No.
You'd better go change
right now, young lady.
Anyway, the ceremony
is about to start.
There isn't enough time.
Oh my God.
(Maureen sighs)
I thought we got off easy, not
having to deal with your mother.
You don't have to be
the perfect stand-in.
Janet: Maureen!
Kay: Fine.
If I'm not wanted,
that's fine.
No! Kay.
Stay.
You two are the only
family I have left.
(knocking on door)
(Janet sighs)
(organ music)
Janet: Stop biting
your fingernails!
What difference
does it make?
You couldn't have got a
manicure for my wedding?
There's always next time!
Maureen: (whispering) Go!
Maureen.
-Oh.
Go on now.
(Wedding March)
(applause)
(orchestral music)
(applause)
(cheering)
(music stops)
Crowd: Ohhh!
Oh no.
What is that?
Gregory?
(Gwen sighs)
We'll figure
something out, Janet.
Maureen: We'll go
back to the house.
Janet: No.
No no no.
Their place?
Ughhh.
No.
We don't have much choice
in the matter, unfortunately.
(Janet sighs)
You look so amazing.
Honestly, so hot.
Janet: Thank you, Georgie.
Maureen: We're heading
back to the house.
The dining hall
is in the slings.
Tree through that
big gorgeous window.
It's not a dining
hall, Maureen.
It's a Country Club!
I'll tell everyone.
Where's Greg?
Greg?
Greg: Come on.
The car is outside.
(wind)
(Janet sighs)
(Greg sighs)
(kiss)
(soft piano)
(rock music)
(party crowd)
Woman: I brought
bubbly for you!
Uh uh.
They need to
be cut for Billy.
That's something
that Jesus wouldn't do
(country rock music)
Best kiss ever
Janet: Are your parents
getting here soon?
Greg: Yeah.
When?
They had to check
on the dogs.
But they're going
to try to make it.
So they aren't coming?
I don't know, Jan.
Listen, what
do you care?
Tell me you love me
til the day I die
And kiss me baby,
one more time
(kiss)
Excuse me.
I waited for
that moment
And when it
came around
Every little bit
of me came alive
When you leaned over
Put your hand
upon my shoulder
(piano music)
You be the boy
I'll be the girl
You're the real McCoy
Make a ma purr
You're a candy cane
A cool cat
You're pumped up
And I like that
When they
come in cars
They'll come
in the night
Under the rugs
Now out
in the light
I'll bring the bark
You bring the bite
Now you be the girl
Ahhhh!
I just need
your touch
It's a cold world
It's just too much
Man: Turn them off!
Oh our love
(cheering)
It's a strange beast
I just wanted
to bring you
Love for the feast
(Tom laughing)
I don't think
it's working.
I think it's working.
(Gwen chuckles)
Do you love
your parents?
Yeah.
Yeah, I do.
You know, we see
each other all the time.
Sometimes it
doesn't feel close.
But I do
love them.
If that make
any sense.
(Tom laughs)
They're good parents?
Yeah.
You turned into
a good man.
I'm sorry your
mom never showed.
You know, I know
why you left.
I should have never
mentioned Billy-
about us taking her.
The fact that you
suggested that-
I mean-
It must be clear
to you now-
that I'm not able to take
something like that on.
And if not,
my God-
you are wearing some
serious blinders.
-Blinders?
That is so fucking
condescending.
Honestly-
Honestly, you are not
your mother, Gwen.
-Do you love Billy?
-Do I love Billy?
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
Yeah, I do.
-I don't.
-Oh come on, Gwen.
-I'm not a mom.
I don't feel how you're
supposed to feel.
-How do you
know that?
-I know.
-Well, you're wrong.
-I'm wrong?
-Yeah, you're wrong.
You know?
Okay?
Because- you know-
Love- you know-
It isn't a-
Love is a decision.
You know?
It's a commitment.
And then you can go and
feel everything after that.
I love you.
(Gwen scoffs)
Maureen: Where
have you been?
Nowhere.
Billy's getting really tired.
Okay.
She should go
to bed soon.
Okay, Maureen.
-Kay.
She needs someone
to help her with
her jammies.
Make sure she brushes
her teeth, washes her face.
I know.
I'm not an idiot.
Can we just enjoy the
wedding for one minute?
(Maureen sighs)
Do you have coke?
No!
Well, can you
get me some?
Oh, like you
want some?
Yeah I got some.
Maureen: Kay!
Just a minute!
That'll straighten you out.
(Janet sniffing)
Gwen fucked Tom.
What?
(Janet laughs)
(fiddle and guitar music)
(Gwen sighs)
Kay: That's before
I was pregnant.
God, that was such
a fun summer!
Gwen and I
couldn't get jobs.
So Maureen hired
us to do yard work.
We had the best tans and
went out like every night.
That's Billy.
Here's Jan and Mom.
Are you even listening?
Yes. Yes.
(Kay snorts)
Billy is two here.
She's really cute, hey?
Like objectively?
Who's Billy?
My kid, dumbass!
(Georgie laughs)
You're a mom?
You're serious?
I just-
Wow.
I just would never
have guessed.
It's a compliment.
I mean it.
(violin music)
Gwen fucked Tom!
-So what?
Oh my God.
You don't know
me at all, do you?
What are you
talking about?
-I feel so lonely.
I don't feel
different at all.
-Jan, you've
got to let it go.
(Jan sighs)
As I roved out on a
bright May morning
To view the meadows-
Where is your sister?
I don't know.
(Maureen sighs)
And the flowers gay
Whom should I spy
But my own
true lover
As she sat under
yon willow tree
(door opening)
Maureen's going
to kill you.
I can take
the hit.
-You're going
to stay, right?
Billy is still
really young.
I mean, I guess it's never
too late for certain people.
That's why the charming people
get to come and go as if-
The charming people?
Have you canceled
your flight?
Jan's lucky Mom
never showed.
Some people just
fuck things up.
(door closing)
A rose in the
wildwood blooming
Singers: A rose in
the wildwood blooming
The briar
desired the rose
The briar
desired the rose
There were sweet
smelling blossoms plenty
Singers: Sweet smelling
blossoms plenty
The briar
befriended the rose
The briar
befriended the rose
And the rose
embraced the briar
Singers: The rose
embraced the briar
The briar
desired the rose
Singers: The briar
desired the rose
But the gentle rose
could never tell that briar
Of a longing-
to be free
And the briar was
blinded by love
Couldn't see
(pouring wine)
Where's Greg?
I don't know.
Kay: (whispering) You don't
know what you're in for.
Gwen: He's probably just
sleeping it off somewhere.
Fuck!
Greg, what the fuck?
No! No!
Stop! Stop!
She kissed me
out of nowhere!
Why can't you just do
the right thing for once!
Prove us all wrong!
-Do the right thing?
Give me a
fucking break.
Did you tell Tom
about the abortion?
Janet: What are
you talking about?
Tom.
Janet: What's going on?
Gwen: Fuck.
Fuck!
What the fuck is
wrong with you?
You have to go!
Get the fuck
out of here!
(Janet crying)
You're a fucking idiot!
Greg: Fuck!
(knocking)
(Janet crying)
(Janet sighing)
I'm so fucked up.
I know.
Everyone is
so messed up.
You're not the same.
As them.
(Janet exhales)
-Kay was never
going to stay.
Gwen: (whispering) Kay.
Kay: Go
back to sleep.
I'll see you, okay?
(soft violin)
(wind)
(waves)
(dog barking in distance)
Good morning.
-Hi.
Your sister left.
The apple doesn't
fall very far-
-Maureen's not going
to ask you to stay.
I can't.
You know, I don't see either
of your parents in you.
You remind me of
Maureen, if anything.
Look, it's hard to
keep things together-
without ticking people off.
That's my take
on it, anyway.
Come summer, we're
going to have more scapes-
than we'll know
what to do with.
Did I ever tell you
about my friend Diana?
Yeah.
Smoked.
All her life.
Diagnosed with lung cancer.
Age 35.
Died 8 weeks later.
3 kids.
The oldest still
in middle school.
What a sin.
Figured I might see
Tom this morning.
It was nice to see Tom
when you were around.
He's like-
He's more-
like he's got
his sea legs.
Shall we mosey then?
I can get
a cab.
-No.
I'll take you.
Come on then.
(soft piano)
Winter Winter
are you calling
My love away?
Where is she going?
Winter show the way
Lover lover
will she fall?
Lover don't
hear me call
Will I reach
her if I crawl?
Winter show the way
Oh but if she
falls in the snow
Will you carry her?
Carry her home?
And oh if there's
no way home
Will you cover her
Till she can't
feel no more?
(Maureen and Tom laugh)
(Tom sighs)
Winter Winter will
you lay them down?
These words on
my love's brow
Will my lover
come round?
Winter show the way
Oh but if she
falls in the snow
(car approaching)
Will you carry her?
(car door closing)
Carry her home?
And oh if there's
no way home
Will you cover her
Till she can't
feel no more?
Hey.
You're back!
Yeah, I guess so!
Look at you!
All grown up.
(they laugh)
Oh
And if I'm calling
and calling
Will you carry these
words on your winds
While I'm calling out
Lover to find
her and put a
Kiss on her cheek
And all that pain
behind her?
Doggie!
Yeah!
Winter winter
is she lost?
Like it?
Don't leave
my love
cold and
lonely now
Lay down your frost
And send my
lover home
Say yes say no
Somebody told me
Don't be afraid
I am still here
till the end of time
Don't be afraid
I am still here
till the end of-
I am still here
till the end of time
Say yes say no
Somebody told me
Don't be afraid
I am still here
till the end of time
Don't be afraid
I am still here
till the end of-
I am still here
till the end of time
(soft piano and cello)
Gwen: Hey!
Janet: Hi!
Welcome back!
You waiting a while?
-Yeah.
I mean, sort of.
No Kay?
Not yet.
You okay?
Huh?
Yeah!
Did Kay tell you
Mom's coming?
Mom's coming?
Well, if Kay thinks Mom is
coming, at least she'll show up.
-How do you
think she'll be?
Difficult.
Hi!
(Kay laughs)
Yeah!
Oh my God.
You look amazing!
What is this?
Kay: Oh!
Baby Janny!
(Janet laughs)
(big kiss)
Where's Mom?
Janet: Arrives tomorrow.
Shall we?
Janet: That's all
you brought?
I can wear
Gwen's stuff.
(soft piano)
Kay: Hi!
(Uncle Bill laughs)
Hello sweetheart!
Gwen: Still Uncle
Bill's favourite.
Janet: She reminds
him of Mom.
Maureen: Well,
they made it, yeah?
Janet: Hi.
Maureen: Hi.
Kay: Hi Aunt Maureen.
Maureen: Sit.
Kay, you're too thin.
Sharon says hi!
Hi Sharon!
Yeah, they can't
wait to see you too.
Okay.
Bye.
Where's Billy?
Maureen: She's at Sharon's.
Kay: Okay, well
let's go get her.
She's staying there tonight.
We've got that big
party at Greg's parents'.
We didn't want to get her
hopes up until we knew.
Knew what?
Jesus Christ, Maureen.
I'm her mother
for fuck sake!
Maureen: Language!
Till we knew what kind
of shape you'd be in-
if you managed
to show up at all.
You smell like a
brewery, by the way.
That's weird.
I haven't had
any beer today.
Anyway, I'm on vacation!
It's not vacation if
you're coming home.
(Gwen laughs)
(Maureen sighs)
(soft piano)
(bath water)
Gwen: So Billy spends a
lot of time at Sharon's.
Maureen: What?
She likes being
at Sharon's.
Maureen: Really though,
we should've had her here.
You hurt Kay's feelings.
Maureen:
Believe it or not-
Kay's feelings are not my
main concern at the moment.
Gwen: What
happened with Kay-
taking her up to
Calgary with her?
It didn't work out.
I don't know how stable
things are for her up there.
Gwen: Right.
Janet: We
couldn't take her.
This year has
been hard.
And the renos were
supposed to be finished-
a hundred million
years ago.
And I never would've
even started them-
if I'd known that the house
would still be totally fucked
by the time the
wedding came.
It's just a lot.
I never said anything.
Well, someone is going to have
to be responsible for her-
at the wedding.
I'm going to be
up to my eyes.
Janet: Okay.
Don't look at me!
Kay can do it.
(Maureen scoffs)
Janet: Well, maybe
Tom could do it.
My Tom?
He's not your
Tom anymore.
And Billy is not
Tom's responsibility.
She's not my responsibility!
Gwen: She's not
my responsibility!
Why would
Tom do it?
He's actually been
really great with Billy.
Gwen: What?
Maureen: He comes
by every so often.
Takes her out.
Why?
Janet: Tom was
really happy-
when Kay and Billy were
living with you guys.
Oh my God.
She's Kay's child.
Honestly, I don't think it's
good to tip toe around her.
You can be responsible for
Billy at the wedding, right?
Yeah.
There you go.
Where'd you
get the lipstick?
The bridesmaid's
dresses are really pretty.
We can make any last minute
alterations tomorrow.
Wait till you hear
my speech, Jan.
I don't want you
to say a speech.
Is Gwen?
-No.
I don't care if Gwen
says a speech.
I don't want you
to say a speech.
I don't want to
say a speech.
So you can-
Kay: What time does
Mom's flight get in?
Did you know Janet
paid for Mom's ticket?
Kay: Really?
How much money do
nurses make now, anyway?
How did you afford
all our tickets?
You paid for
Mom and Kay?
Can we just
drop it?
Stop eating the
chocolates, Kay!
Fine!
(Maureen sighs)
Maureen: You know
what your sister's like.
Your mother's worse-
if anything.
Well, we're all here.
That's the main thing.
Mom's not.
Kay, just so
you know-
Greg's parents are
kind of conservative.
(Kay laughs)
Read you loud
and clear, Janny.
(phone ringing)
Gwen: Jesus, who
keeps calling you?
Rudy.
He's obsessed with me.
It's complicated.
Hi!
Greg: Hey,
how are you?
(kiss)
Hey!
Fuck!
Off!!
Rudy!!!
Gwen: Jesus, Kay.
Hi.
(kiss)
How are you?
Richard: Cheers to you.
Linda: Thank you.
-You look- (kiss)
You look great.
-Thank you.
-You look nice.
Hey!
How are you?
Nice to see you!
Janet: Richard.
Richard: Janet.
Good to see you.
Janet: Good
to see you.
Linda: Hello dear.
Linda.
(kiss)
These are my sisters.
Linda: No!
Kay and Gwen.
Welcome!
Thank you, it's
nice to be here.
-Welcome.
-Gwen.
Nice to meet you.
Linda: And your mother?
Oh, yes.
She's getting in tomorrow.
-Oh.
That's the earliest
she could get here.
Because of work.
-Oh.
Kay: (scoffs) Work?
Mom?
She'll be at
dinner tomorrow.
Jigg's dinner!
Richard: Nice!
Where's the bar
in this dumpster?
(Kay laughs)
Just kidding, obviously.
What a beautiful
home you have.
The bar is
right over here.
Help yourself.
Ah, say no
more, Rich!
Interesting decor!
Linda: Well, it's
a duck motif.
Kay: Duck motif?
How original!
(Kay laughs)
Linda: Oh!
That's a goose, dear.
Shut up!
One last chance left
You and your
liquor store flowers
Georgie, this one's Kay.
And that one's Gwen.
Kay: Yeah.
Okay.
Kay: Nice to
meet you, Georgie.
Georgie.
Georgie: Yes, Georgie.
Nice to meet you.
(rock music)
Gwen: So you're
a groomsman?
Hey!
Richard: Hi!
Kay: How's it going?
Richard: How are you?
Oh! Just fine.
Yeah, It's amazing
down here.
And you have more
ducks up here too.
Yes, that's my motif.
Welcome.
Do you want
to dance?
Yeah, fuck it.
Let's dance! Jesus!
-I'll take your lead.
Okay.
(Kay laughs)
Okay.
And you won't
give it to me
But you still
won't let me leave
But I got
a knife
It's got designs
Gonna cut the line-
and change it all
(Kay laughing)
I'm bending backwards
in strange ways
It's like there's
springs on my hips
I'd put away
the bowling ball
Drop the ham radio
Swallow the bazooka joe
For your kiss
Tom: Hey, man.
Congratulations.
Tom.
-Congratulations.
Thanks.
-Hey, Georgie.
How're you doing?
Hey.
You're back.
Yeah, I didn't have
a choice, really.
It's-
Uh-
Yeah.
Oh my God!
Hey, Tom!
He's here!
Say yes say no
Where's Maureen?
She wasn't sure if she'd
be feeling up to it.
Really?
Greg: Listen, it means a lot
to Janet that you're here.
I've got this
big family.
And she's got-
She's a lot
to handle.
Kay: She's a
lot to handle?
Or she's got a
lot to handle?
-Both.
Don't be afraid
So you didn't like grow
up in this house?
Is this your
family house?
No, no, we live
downtown.
Richard: Hi.
Greg: Hey.
Can I bum one?
Didn't you quit?
Well-
Quit buying them!
Yeah, just a quick
puff, alright?
You alright?
Just a second.
Dad, here.
Okay.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
(laughter)
He would have
killed for that.
(Jan sniffs)
Were you smoking?
No.
(laughter)
Linda: Go
ahead! Kiss it!
Alright, here
comes the cod!
Okay, here you go.
Ah, kiss it!
(applause)
Ah, that's
not so bad.
You've kissed worse
than that, I'm sure.
Okay.
'Deed I is,
me ol' cock!
And long may
your big jib draw!
Now, put it
on your head.
(cheers and applause)
Well done!
Kay: Oh my God.
Fuck this.
Gwen: Did you
try any of those-
like, little tiny, circly-
Like, I guess they're
mushrooms, but-
Yeah, with the little red
thing in the middle?
Yeah, they were deadly.
-They were gross.
They were gross.
(laughter)
They were disgusting.
Rudy thinks I should
confront Mom.
That it would be important
for my personal growth.
Who's Rudy?
He's your therapist, or-?
Like, look at us.
She did permanent damage,
the way she treated us.
Taking off
all the time.
And I know what
you're thinking.
But I am
trying with Billy.
It's not exactly easy-
when Maureen's got her
under fucking lock and key.
And Janet's
off her rocker.
I guess that you probably
think that you're fine.
That you're over it.
But I guarantee
you that you aren't.
And repressing shit
gives you cancer.
I'm going to do
it at the wedding.
Confront her.
-That's a
really bad idea.
What's it going
to prove anyway?
She's never
going to change.
Where'd you get
her lipstick?
From our spot.
From when
we stole it.
-Maureen's really got to
start throwing shit out.
You stole it.
I got in trouble.
I got in
trouble too!
That was an
awful day.
-No! I love
that day!
It was so thrilling.
And Aunt Maureen gave us
that sex pamphlet, remember?
-That wasn't
the same day.
Yeah, it was so.
I'm staying.
I'm not going
back to Calgary.
I've been trying to
get my shit together.
I know no one
thinks I am.
But I am.
I know that
it's hard.
And that maybe
you're trying.
No, Gwen.
I am trying.
Well, why not actually
move home this time?
Actually move home?
What's that
supposed to mean?
Why don't you
fucking move home?
-We should
probably get back.
(ding ding ding ding)
Hi!
Hi, I just wanted to
thank Linda and Richard-
for welcoming our family into
their beautiful, baller mansion!
And for welcoming
our little baby sister-
little Janny,
into their family.
(applause)
Linda: Oh!
Well, welcome!
Welcome.
Welcome, everyone.
When Janet first started
showing up, I said to myself-
I am not going to get close to
any more of Greg's girlfriends!
Because I just
get close to them.
And then
they'd be gone!
And so I said,
no more.
But Janet kept
coming around.
And after three years-
Well, she's in the
family now, I suppose.
Well, she will be,
in a couple of days.
So, welcome.
Welcome!
(applause)
We love you
so much, Greg!
Greg: I love you.
Linda: I love
you too, darling.
(quiet music)
(Kay at piano)
Hey.
Hi.
Who you looking for?
It's really thinned out.
Yeah, let's go downtown.
Greg: Fuck yeah, bud.
Fuck yeah, bud.
Let's go!
Janet.
This isn't like him.
Sweetie.
Here.
I know.
I know.
Greg doesn't
drink like this!
He can just stay
with us for the night.
Janet: Honey, it's
time to go home.
Look, he's just nervous.
It's pre-wedding jitters.
Janet: I'll go
get our coats.
Kay: He had
two beer.
Actually no, four.
Do you get it?
This is it
Gwen.
Let's go.
Greg: I love you
so much, baby.
Catch 22
And then too
many more come
Oh, please!
Greg was never
a drinker?
Remember safe grad, when
he beer-bonged a full case?
Keep dreaming, Linda!
Janet: Kay,
get in the car!
Gwen, keep an
eye on her, okay?
Gwen: Kay can
take care of herself.
Janet: Just make sure
she doesn't disappear.
Kay: We're only going to
Diane's party for one drink.
(car starting)
(loud electric guitar)
Liar, cheater, loser
Liar, cheater, loser
Liar, cheater, loser
Liar, cheater, loser
Kay.
Kay, we should go.
Yeah, totally!
Just- soon.
We'll go soon.
So what are you at
in Toronto anyway?
(music changes)
(Kay screaming)
You left to go
to school, right?
Uh- no.
I left to just get
my shit together.
You married?
-Diane.
No.
So did you?
Get your shit
together after?
-Where's the
bathroom in here?
No.
No, I'm good Kay.
Thank you.
And who do
you think you are
Who do you
think you are
to call me down?
Tom.
No.
Sure?
-No, I'm good.
Yeah, man.
Thanks.
Okay, on three!
One! Two! Three!
All: Whooo!
Kay: Cheers!
Diane: Cheers!
Kay: Whoo!
Diane: Whoo!
Making out in
a ruined room
Remember baby
when we were two
Kay: Light?
It isn't hard to
push it farther
It isn't hard to
get through to you
But how
does it happen?
How does this happen?
Is it me
is it you?
Is this just
what we do?
And who do
you think you are
Who do you
think you are
to call me down?
I know who you are
I'm out on the edge
Nobody knows me
Out on the edge
where nobody loves me
Everybody takes
a piece away
Let me give you
a piece of advice
I'm everything bad
when you cross me twice
You'd be better
You just stay the
fuck out of my way
(phone chiming)
Hello?
Janet: You're late.
Where are you?
And Kay?
What?
Oh I don't-
-The fitting!
I think she's
still here.
Janet: You think?
Sorry.
-One thing I asked.
Oh, what time is it?
-It's 9:15 !
Fuck.
We're already
15 minutes behind!
Sorry.
Yeah, sorry.
Okay.
-Now!
(Gwen sighs)
Kay?
(Tom groans)
Kay!!
Man: Shut up!
Woman: Shut up!!
What's up?
We're late for
Janet's fitting.
She's really
losing her shit.
So, I'll take you.
My car's just parked
down the road.
That's okay.
You don't have
to do that.
No, I'll take you.
You don't mind?
-I don't mind.
I should never
even fucking-
Gwen: Time
to go, Kay.
We're late for that
fucking fitting.
Kay!
Now.
Tom is taking us.
Kay!
God, I'm coming!
Chillax, Maureen.
I'll see you after?
(kiss)
Sorry!
Traffic was really,
really crazy.
You guys fucking suck.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry but my inner
clock must be on Calgary time.
Oh, is that
what happened?
We're here.
What more
do you want?
Come on!
(jazz music)
Diane: God that was
a time last night!
Kay: Oh my God!
How do you
look so good?
We just left
your house!
Are you going at anything
tonight or what?
Yeah.
I'd say.
Ughhh!
I'm not wearing this.
Janet: What?
What's wrong?
Kay: It's accentuating
all of my problem areas.
You look good, Kay.
I swear.
I can't wear this.
You look fine.
Janet: You have
to wear this!
Oh, I have to?
What is this?
Saudi Arabia?
Oh my God!
You are such
a psycho!
Kay, just wear it.
It doesn't matter.
It does matter!
Gwen: I know, Janet.
If you think I'm going
to be seen in that-
you're out of your
fucking mind.
I didn't come back
here to be badgered
and paraded around
like a goddamn clown.
Kay.
Janet: Jesus Christ.
Where are you going?
(Diane sighs)
I'd say I've
seen a better fit.
But I've seen
worse, too.
(Gwen sighs)
Gwen!
You're still here.
Did you see Kay?
No.
Fuck.
Good fitting?
Yeah, really top notch.
You want to
go for a drive?
Yeah.
Come on.
Let's go.
Kay: Hey!
Hey!
Hey.
Woman: Oh my gosh.
Those are brand new.
Didn't even notice
they were gone.
Thank you!
Yeah, you've got to
keep their feet warm.
I'm a Mom
too, so-
Oh! Okay.
(music box chiming)
(stone falling from dashboard)
Tom: Oh!
Gwen: What-
(Tom laughs)
was that?
Okay.
Your worry rock.
-They're meditative.
Here, look.
No one needs
to know.
It's just something to
rub in your pocket!
They're not worry rocks.
(Gwen laughs)
Whoo!
Wow.
Look at that.
It's beautiful.
You know,
looking at it-
Who wouldn't
want to live here?
-I guess me.
I just don't understand
what Toronto could
possibly have to offer you.
I don't know why anyone
would want to live here.
-Come on.
It's home.
Not for me.
Do you have
a job there?
Bartending.
-Seriously?
Mm-hmm.
It's a good gig.
It's a nice spot.
I make the schedule.
You couldn't
do that here?
Tom.
-I'm serious.
Hey.
I'm serious.
Why?
Why stay there?
I have peace.
Oh yeah.
Peace.
What horseshit.
Maybe.
(Gwen sighs)
Thanks for coming
here with me.
I didn't have anywhere
else to go, so-
Gwen: Hey.
Kind of you to grace us
with your presence.
Janet: Perfect.
Thank you so much.
Boxes are finally ready.
You're back.
Thanks for leaving
me at the bridal salon.
We can go now
pick them up now.
Gwen: Pick what up?
Artisanal boxes
for the centerpieces.
That won't work.
My mani-pedi is
in a half hour.
You're here!
Where else
would I be?
And Billy needs to be
picked up at preschool.
I really need to
get cleaned up.
Maureen: Janet.
You go get your
nails done.
I'll drop you.
Then swing over to LeMarchant
Road and get the boxes.
Gwen?
Can you go pick
up Billy at preschool?
Kay: Why?
Maureen: It's
just down the road.
I can go.
I'll do it.
Great, Kay
can do it.
Kay: Why not?
I'll go with you.
Maureen: Great.
(soft guitar)
Do you think it would've
been different for us-
if Maureen was related?
Like, blood?
Probably not.
She never liked me because
I remind her of Mom.
Well yeah, Mom is
definitely a fucking asshole.
But I don't think
you're like her.
Maureen thinks
I'm like Mom.
Are you nervous
to see her?
No.
Are you?
I don't know.
I don't want to
think about it.
I've never not
wanted to see her.
It's just never
been up to me.
You're excited.
You brought
it up, loser!
Thank you for
coming with me.
Maybe neither of us
has to be like her.
Maybe.
(knocking)
Put it out.
Hi!
Can I help
you ladies?
Uh- yeah.
We're here to
pick up Billy.
We haven't seen
you here before.
Oh yeah, we
don't live here.
(knocking)
Hey baby!
She's right there!
We do need clearance
from a guardian-
if someone new is
collecting a child.
Oh, well that's Kay.
Kay is her mom.
Worker: That
may be true.
But we do
need clearance.
Oh may it?
Oh my God!
You want me to
take a blood test?
Kay, let's just let me get
Maureen on the phone.
We'll figure this out.
I'm just going
to call Maureen.
(Gwen sighs)
Maureen: I'm rotted.
Kay: Billy!
Hi Baby!
Maureen, why am I
not on that list?
Maureen:
The two of you.
Now I'll be late
getting the turkey in.
Come on, dear.
Let's go.
Kay: Billy!
Billy! Billy!
Janet: So just put all
the white ones in here.
And then the green and
pink over there for now.
Gwen: And the silver
ones in there?
Kay, are you
going to help?
Oh my God.
Remember when Mom
went out with Robert?
Oh and Gwen,
you saw his dick.
So gross.
I don't remember him!
You lived with Maureen
when we lived with him.
And I didn't see
his thing, you liar.
Okay, Maureen.
And you did so!
No, it was just-
he was always
wearing jogging pants.
And his dick would be like
constantly jangling around.
(Kay gags)
(Janet laughs)
His name was-
Roger.
Robert.
Roger.
-Rob.
Rodger.
Rodge.
Rodge.
Oh yeah, right on.
Jogging pants Rodge.
Mm-hmm.
She was beautiful
then and everything.
We should all go to
the airport to get her.
I don't
need to go.
It would be nice
if we all went.
Supper will be late.
But that's like
European, right?
Oh, I hope Greg's
parents like her.
She can be funny-
charming.
Yeah, it's just Greg's
parents are so hoity-toity.
Well I mean, yeah.
They can be snobs.
But they've got
zero class.
Janet.
Mom will be Mom.
But it'll be fine.
(Billy playing)
I'm going to
jump in and fly!
(soft piano)
(Gwen sniffs)
(Gwen chuckles)
(Maureen sighs)
Hey.
Um-
I haven't been well.
Did you know that?
No.
No.
Why would you?
Billy is-
Well, we love
her, but-
There's not enough years.
Enough health.
Our time with her
is full of joy, but-
We just
can't manage.
It's as simple
as that.
-I'm not sure I'm the one you
should be talking to about this.
There is no reason why that
child can't be with family.
I'm not her mother.
I just mean she should
be with her mother.
There's no reason she
can't be with her mother.
I'll talk to Kay.
She should know better.
Right.
(Maureen sighs)
(crows cawing)
(dog barking in distance)
Sorry.
I just needed
a minute.
Sure.
Well, you're here so-
dig in.
But if you want a
good crop of garlic-
you've got to put the
work into the garlic.
Like this?
Yeah, that's good.
Janet: Remember the
junk she used to feed us?
Mac and cheese
like every night.
Like, actually shameful.
Kay: No bedtime.
Gwen: Yeah.
Honestly, like-
Gwen: Yeah but look at
how well we turned out.
(Kay laughs)
Kay: Oh my god.
Remember when she took us out
of school to see Harry Potter?
And all the
teachers were like-
trying to give us
shit for leaving.
I'm like-
Uh, yeah, take it up
with our guardian.
(Janet laughs)
Oh my God, Jan.
Remember your fifth birthday?
Not really.
Kay: At the
bowling alley?
More than we ever
got, hey Gwen?
Anyway, Mom didn't
show up, of course.
Janet, you disappeared.
And I finally found you
outside that chicken place.
Gwen: That wasn't
a chicken place.
Kay: No, they had like
the chicken and taters.
Okay, then- uh-
Kay: Anyway Janet,
I found you there.
And you were
like, crying.
Like crying and
crying and crying.
I was like, come
in, you know?
Like, open your presents.
Cheer up.
And you wouldn't budge.
You said you felt
too homesick.
And I was like-
Well, we're going to be
heading home soon anyhow.
And you just sat there
until everyone left.
My God, Kay.
Your baby's breath
ratio is inscrutable!
Kay: Huh?
(phone chiming)
That's her flight.
Here.
You can mix some
white and some pink.
Kay: I like this one.
Well it doesn't
matter if you like it.
You can't just do
whatever you want.
Janet: Let's go.
We can finish
this later.
(soft music)
Guys!
Let's go!
(Kay sighs)
(soft music)
Janet: Something
must've gotten mixed up.
I hope she's okay.
She's always okay.
Why the fuck did you make
us all come to the airport?
Kay-
Kay: Like, why did
you even invite her?
Janet: It's my
wedding, Kay.
Kay: You are
so deluded!
Thinking she would
actually come?
Gwen: Kay!
Kay: What a fucking
waste of money!
It's a fucking waste.
Here you go, Billy.
Some more apple.
(kiss)
Oh good.
You're back.
I'm going to take
off and get dessert.
(phone chiming)
It's just the caterer.
Okay.
Well, I won't
be long.
My God, fuck her!
Who needs her Jan?
Seriously.
Fuck her!
It's okay.
This is the last time
she ruins our day.
Okay?
Fuck her!
(kisses)
Oh my God!
Hey, my little Janny.
I can't believe our little baby
is getting married tomorrow!
Yeah?
It's going to be
so good Janny!
Forget her!
Fuck her, man!
(kiss)
Hey Billy, look!
She's getting married tomorrow!
(kisses)
Right?
Hey baby.
Woop!
Ohhhh!
(Kay laughs)
What are you eating?
Gwen: Careful, Kay!
(phone chiming)
Is that her?
Huh, Janet?
(Billy crying)
Kay: It's okay.
Janet.
Billy: Momma!
Momma!
(thump)
(Billy wailing)
Jesus Christ, Kay!
It was an accident!
She slipped!
-What did you
think would happen?
My God Janet, can
you look at her?
You okay?
Janet: She's fine.
(Kay sighs)
That was Mom.
She's not coming.
(Kay sighs)
Billy: Momma?
Momma?
(soft music)
(Kay crying)
Fuck.
Fuck.
(knocking on door)
Just a sec.
(dinner chatter)
We were so looking forward
to meeting your mother!
Maureen: Well, I
can't say I'm surprised
She just got stuck.
It was a work
thing, last minute.
She's hoping to get here for
tomorrow for the reception-
or- you know-
at least.
You know, actually-
I heard they were calling
for weather tomorrow.
I guess that's
what I get-
planning a winter wedding.
You know
what they say-
If the weather
doesn't suit you-
If you don't like
the weather-
just wait five minutes.
-just wait ten minutes!
Yeah.
Jesus, Kay!
Oh my God, what?
I'm here!
Janet: Guys.
You're going to give
Janet an ulcer.
I'm fine.
So what-
you're going to play house with
Tom for the next 24 hours?
And then leave and never
speak to any of us again?
Yeah.
Well, at least I'm
not a deadbeat.
Gwen.
Maureen: Kay!
Colourful bunch.
Radio: Strong winds are expected
across the Avalon Peninsula
tonight and tomorrow.
A high wind
warning is in effect.
Gales expected to increase
to 120 kilometres tomorrow-
with gusts
up to 160.
That's a severe
weather state.
I have a boyfriend.
In Toronto.
Just so you know.
I'm sorry.
Coming back
here for me-
It's like-
too much.
-Hey.
(soft music)
These blankets stink.
They're meant
for the dog.
Why do you
visit Billy?
I don't know.
Because I like her.
Hmm.
Where are we?
-I mean- this is-
This is my land.
Wow.
Yeah.
We start building at
the end of the month.
Dad's going
to help me.
Wow.
That's going to
be a lot of work.
(Gwen sighs)
We should
really get going.
It's like a wind
tunnel up here.
(soft violin)
(bathtub running)
(Gwen coughs)
(Gwen coughs)
Oh fuck!
(Gwen sighs)
(Gwen sighs)
(Gwen sighs)
Are you awake?
(Kay groans)
I fucked Tom.
You slut!
He showed
me his land.
What?
Like he waxed
all his pubes off?
What?
(Gwen laughs)
No!
What?
He's got land
in Portugal Cove.
Oh!
I'm sorry about earlier.
That was really bad.
With Billy.
-It was an accident.
Remember when
Billy was a baby?
When you guys lived
with me and Tom?
-Yeah.
I was pregnant.
What?
Miscarriage?
-Oh.
Does Tom know?
No.
Anyway.
I'm sorry I wasn't
here for you then.
Do you think I
should tell Tom?
Fuck no.
(wind)
Tom: Can you
draw this guy?
Come on!
(Billy laughs)
Wow!
Whoah!
My turn!
Boop!
(Billy laughs)
Your turn!
Yeah!
(Tom laughs)
-I want to
use orange.
-You want orange?
Yeah, I like that!
Whoah!
That one looks cool!
(Billy laughs)
Yeah.
Okay.
Okay, listen.
I've got to go.
Okay.
Bye.
What's up?
Do you like
living in Toronto?
I don't know.
Yeah, I guess.
Maybe things could
work for me up there.
I thought you
were staying here.
Well, yeah I am.
I just- I mean
like, eventually.
Maybe Toronto could
be a good place.
And Billy could
come too.
Once I got settled.
Think you could
get me a job?
At the bar?
Yeah.
Um- it's a pretty
small place.
So?
Well we aren't
hiring right now.
Well it could just be a
couple of shifts to start.
And you expect to be
able to make ends meet-
off a couple
of shifts?
I don't know, Gwen.
I could
figure it out.
Toronto is really expensive.
You seem to
manage alright.
Well anyway, it
wouldn't be fair-
to just take shifts
from somebody.
Oh my God, okay.
Forget it.
I don't know that Toronto would
really solve your problems.
My problems?
I just mean you wouldn't have
the support you have here.
Okay, don't worry, Gwen.
I won't saddle
you with Billy.
That's not-
Can everyone just get off my
fucking back for a second?
I'm going through
a really hard time.
Okay.
(Kay sighs)
Let's just get
through this wedding.
And when I get back
to Toronto, I can-
Just don't bother.
Just- whatever.
I'm good, okay?
Yes, I'm staying.
Can everyone just
get the fuck over it?
This is too
much blush.
(Jan sighs)
Shouldn't you go
meet the guys?
It's fine.
All I have to do
is put on a suit.
-And fix your hair.
Is my hair
really that bad?
I just don't want your
mother looking at me today.
-You don't want my
mother to look at you?
Your mother thinks
that I'm trash progeny.
(Greg sighs)
Jan.
She doesn't.
She loves you.
(Jan laughs)
Honestly.
I really don't
think it's fair.
My mother is not the
problem right now.
Right.
I knew she
wouldn't come.
I mean,
Gwen said it.
But-
I love you.
(phone chimes)
(Janet sighs)
They'll be here
any minute.
(kiss)
(kiss)
(soft music)
(wind and waves)
Tom: Wow!
Maureen: You're up!
Where's the sugar, Maureen?
-Right here.
What are you doing?
Getting her lunch.
And you're
giving her sugar?
Cinnamon toast.
It's going to be
a long day, Kay.
She needs some
good food.
Cinnamon toast is good!
You go get ready.
Billy: That's my frog!
Yeah! I know!
That looks good!
Billy: What did you put
on half of the picture then?
Oh!
Oh, he's
going to fall!
Look, he's
on the back!
You look beautiful.
I'm sorry things aren't
going the way you planned.
It's just embarrassing-
(Janet sighs)
her not coming.
I mean, it's not like it would
actually change anything-
if she did come.
It's not like I
actually care.
You got a smoke?
Yeah.
If Greg's mother came in and
saw me smoking right now-
I'd probably
just end it.
She'd just
look at me-
and think-
I knew it.
Then I'd just have to run
away to Mexico or something.
-All because you
had one smoke?
(Janet sighs)
She'd think-
Of course she smokes.
And then give
me that look.
Who cares about Linda?
You don't live here.
You don't have to care
what people think.
No one cares about
today like you do.
Yeah.
That's become abundantly clear.
I just mean no one is
watching that closely.
Please.
People will be talking
about this forever.
Her absence.
We should've hired someone
to play Mom for the day.
An actor or something.
We should've thought of that
when we were toddlers!
(they chuckle)
(Janet sighs)
(wind)
And now comes
the weather.
(Janet sighs)
(organ music)
Where is Kay?
She said she
had to run home.
What?
Why?
-I don't know.
You couldn't stop her?
-I'm not Kay's keeper.
Maureen: Put that
old idiot box away.
What?
The TV is the idiot
box, Maureen!
I beg to differ!
Oh my God!
It's not, like,
up for debate!
There you are.
Why aren't you ready?
I told you I'm not
wearing that thing.
Did you think
I was kidding?
Janet: Kay!
No.
You'd better go change
right now, young lady.
Anyway, the ceremony
is about to start.
There isn't enough time.
Oh my God.
(Maureen sighs)
I thought we got off easy, not
having to deal with your mother.
You don't have to be
the perfect stand-in.
Janet: Maureen!
Kay: Fine.
If I'm not wanted,
that's fine.
No! Kay.
Stay.
You two are the only
family I have left.
(knocking on door)
(Janet sighs)
(organ music)
Janet: Stop biting
your fingernails!
What difference
does it make?
You couldn't have got a
manicure for my wedding?
There's always next time!
Maureen: (whispering) Go!
Maureen.
-Oh.
Go on now.
(Wedding March)
(applause)
(orchestral music)
(applause)
(cheering)
(music stops)
Crowd: Ohhh!
Oh no.
What is that?
Gregory?
(Gwen sighs)
We'll figure
something out, Janet.
Maureen: We'll go
back to the house.
Janet: No.
No no no.
Their place?
Ughhh.
No.
We don't have much choice
in the matter, unfortunately.
(Janet sighs)
You look so amazing.
Honestly, so hot.
Janet: Thank you, Georgie.
Maureen: We're heading
back to the house.
The dining hall
is in the slings.
Tree through that
big gorgeous window.
It's not a dining
hall, Maureen.
It's a Country Club!
I'll tell everyone.
Where's Greg?
Greg?
Greg: Come on.
The car is outside.
(wind)
(Janet sighs)
(Greg sighs)
(kiss)
(soft piano)
(rock music)
(party crowd)
Woman: I brought
bubbly for you!
Uh uh.
They need to
be cut for Billy.
That's something
that Jesus wouldn't do
(country rock music)
Best kiss ever
Janet: Are your parents
getting here soon?
Greg: Yeah.
When?
They had to check
on the dogs.
But they're going
to try to make it.
So they aren't coming?
I don't know, Jan.
Listen, what
do you care?
Tell me you love me
til the day I die
And kiss me baby,
one more time
(kiss)
Excuse me.
I waited for
that moment
And when it
came around
Every little bit
of me came alive
When you leaned over
Put your hand
upon my shoulder
(piano music)
You be the boy
I'll be the girl
You're the real McCoy
Make a ma purr
You're a candy cane
A cool cat
You're pumped up
And I like that
When they
come in cars
They'll come
in the night
Under the rugs
Now out
in the light
I'll bring the bark
You bring the bite
Now you be the girl
Ahhhh!
I just need
your touch
It's a cold world
It's just too much
Man: Turn them off!
Oh our love
(cheering)
It's a strange beast
I just wanted
to bring you
Love for the feast
(Tom laughing)
I don't think
it's working.
I think it's working.
(Gwen chuckles)
Do you love
your parents?
Yeah.
Yeah, I do.
You know, we see
each other all the time.
Sometimes it
doesn't feel close.
But I do
love them.
If that make
any sense.
(Tom laughs)
They're good parents?
Yeah.
You turned into
a good man.
I'm sorry your
mom never showed.
You know, I know
why you left.
I should have never
mentioned Billy-
about us taking her.
The fact that you
suggested that-
I mean-
It must be clear
to you now-
that I'm not able to take
something like that on.
And if not,
my God-
you are wearing some
serious blinders.
-Blinders?
That is so fucking
condescending.
Honestly-
Honestly, you are not
your mother, Gwen.
-Do you love Billy?
-Do I love Billy?
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
Yeah, I do.
-I don't.
-Oh come on, Gwen.
-I'm not a mom.
I don't feel how you're
supposed to feel.
-How do you
know that?
-I know.
-Well, you're wrong.
-I'm wrong?
-Yeah, you're wrong.
You know?
Okay?
Because- you know-
Love- you know-
It isn't a-
Love is a decision.
You know?
It's a commitment.
And then you can go and
feel everything after that.
I love you.
(Gwen scoffs)
Maureen: Where
have you been?
Nowhere.
Billy's getting really tired.
Okay.
She should go
to bed soon.
Okay, Maureen.
-Kay.
She needs someone
to help her with
her jammies.
Make sure she brushes
her teeth, washes her face.
I know.
I'm not an idiot.
Can we just enjoy the
wedding for one minute?
(Maureen sighs)
Do you have coke?
No!
Well, can you
get me some?
Oh, like you
want some?
Yeah I got some.
Maureen: Kay!
Just a minute!
That'll straighten you out.
(Janet sniffing)
Gwen fucked Tom.
What?
(Janet laughs)
(fiddle and guitar music)
(Gwen sighs)
Kay: That's before
I was pregnant.
God, that was such
a fun summer!
Gwen and I
couldn't get jobs.
So Maureen hired
us to do yard work.
We had the best tans and
went out like every night.
That's Billy.
Here's Jan and Mom.
Are you even listening?
Yes. Yes.
(Kay snorts)
Billy is two here.
She's really cute, hey?
Like objectively?
Who's Billy?
My kid, dumbass!
(Georgie laughs)
You're a mom?
You're serious?
I just-
Wow.
I just would never
have guessed.
It's a compliment.
I mean it.
(violin music)
Gwen fucked Tom!
-So what?
Oh my God.
You don't know
me at all, do you?
What are you
talking about?
-I feel so lonely.
I don't feel
different at all.
-Jan, you've
got to let it go.
(Jan sighs)
As I roved out on a
bright May morning
To view the meadows-
Where is your sister?
I don't know.
(Maureen sighs)
And the flowers gay
Whom should I spy
But my own
true lover
As she sat under
yon willow tree
(door opening)
Maureen's going
to kill you.
I can take
the hit.
-You're going
to stay, right?
Billy is still
really young.
I mean, I guess it's never
too late for certain people.
That's why the charming people
get to come and go as if-
The charming people?
Have you canceled
your flight?
Jan's lucky Mom
never showed.
Some people just
fuck things up.
(door closing)
A rose in the
wildwood blooming
Singers: A rose in
the wildwood blooming
The briar
desired the rose
The briar
desired the rose
There were sweet
smelling blossoms plenty
Singers: Sweet smelling
blossoms plenty
The briar
befriended the rose
The briar
befriended the rose
And the rose
embraced the briar
Singers: The rose
embraced the briar
The briar
desired the rose
Singers: The briar
desired the rose
But the gentle rose
could never tell that briar
Of a longing-
to be free
And the briar was
blinded by love
Couldn't see
(pouring wine)
Where's Greg?
I don't know.
Kay: (whispering) You don't
know what you're in for.
Gwen: He's probably just
sleeping it off somewhere.
Fuck!
Greg, what the fuck?
No! No!
Stop! Stop!
She kissed me
out of nowhere!
Why can't you just do
the right thing for once!
Prove us all wrong!
-Do the right thing?
Give me a
fucking break.
Did you tell Tom
about the abortion?
Janet: What are
you talking about?
Tom.
Janet: What's going on?
Gwen: Fuck.
Fuck!
What the fuck is
wrong with you?
You have to go!
Get the fuck
out of here!
(Janet crying)
You're a fucking idiot!
Greg: Fuck!
(knocking)
(Janet crying)
(Janet sighing)
I'm so fucked up.
I know.
Everyone is
so messed up.
You're not the same.
As them.
(Janet exhales)
-Kay was never
going to stay.
Gwen: (whispering) Kay.
Kay: Go
back to sleep.
I'll see you, okay?
(soft violin)
(wind)
(waves)
(dog barking in distance)
Good morning.
-Hi.
Your sister left.
The apple doesn't
fall very far-
-Maureen's not going
to ask you to stay.
I can't.
You know, I don't see either
of your parents in you.
You remind me of
Maureen, if anything.
Look, it's hard to
keep things together-
without ticking people off.
That's my take
on it, anyway.
Come summer, we're
going to have more scapes-
than we'll know
what to do with.
Did I ever tell you
about my friend Diana?
Yeah.
Smoked.
All her life.
Diagnosed with lung cancer.
Age 35.
Died 8 weeks later.
3 kids.
The oldest still
in middle school.
What a sin.
Figured I might see
Tom this morning.
It was nice to see Tom
when you were around.
He's like-
He's more-
like he's got
his sea legs.
Shall we mosey then?
I can get
a cab.
-No.
I'll take you.
Come on then.
(soft piano)
Winter Winter
are you calling
My love away?
Where is she going?
Winter show the way
Lover lover
will she fall?
Lover don't
hear me call
Will I reach
her if I crawl?
Winter show the way
Oh but if she
falls in the snow
Will you carry her?
Carry her home?
And oh if there's
no way home
Will you cover her
Till she can't
feel no more?
(Maureen and Tom laugh)
(Tom sighs)
Winter Winter will
you lay them down?
These words on
my love's brow
Will my lover
come round?
Winter show the way
Oh but if she
falls in the snow
(car approaching)
Will you carry her?
(car door closing)
Carry her home?
And oh if there's
no way home
Will you cover her
Till she can't
feel no more?
Hey.
You're back!
Yeah, I guess so!
Look at you!
All grown up.
(they laugh)
Oh
And if I'm calling
and calling
Will you carry these
words on your winds
While I'm calling out
Lover to find
her and put a
Kiss on her cheek
And all that pain
behind her?
Doggie!
Yeah!
Winter winter
is she lost?
Like it?
Don't leave
my love
cold and
lonely now
Lay down your frost
And send my
lover home
Say yes say no
Somebody told me
Don't be afraid
I am still here
till the end of time
Don't be afraid
I am still here
till the end of-
I am still here
till the end of time
Say yes say no
Somebody told me
Don't be afraid
I am still here
till the end of time
Don't be afraid
I am still here
till the end of-
I am still here
till the end of time
