That is the show, I'd like to
thank my guest Roger Griffith
of Cal Tec,

fashion designer and my
new BFF, Deven Crane.

And of course the always
loquacious, Brian Eno.

And now, unfortunately,

This.
[audience laughs]

Yesterday, I suffered

from what some are calling,
an on air meltdown.

[audience laughter]

The powers that be are convinced
that I

said some things,
and did some things
that I shouldn't have done.

And those powers, including
my wife and producer
of this show, Claire,

have uh made it clear that
I need to publicly apologize..

[audience laughs]

Now.

And if I do then,
I get to keep my show.

[giggles]

Here's the thing, I could
apologize all day long,

but that is not going
to get my show back,

because the truth is, it
hasn't been my show for
quite some time.

so I'm not going to apologize.
Not going to do it.

I'm going to leave.

[audience laughs]
You just watched my last show.

I know, I want to thank
all of you for taking

this journey with me
for all these years.

and I know, that our paths
will cross again.

So for the last time,
I'm Dick Romans

from somewhere in Los Angeles,
this has been

And, Or None of the Above.

[crickets]

Ok, hiatus is over,
enough is enough.

Time to get back to the..
in the swing,

time to get to the old

Dick Roman's magic,
here we go.

[clears throat]
today is April...

[crickets]

Doesn't matter.

It's all the same day anyway.

Today on the show we have
a very special guest.

So happy that he is here with
us today.

Dick Romans, world class
fuck up.

and his dog. And later in the
show...

we'll have uh Dick Romans
pop by to...

set himself on fire.

That should be fun.

Alright.

It's your turn to be Dick Romans,
go ahead.

It's easier than it looks.

company.

And [blustering]

a really bad accident
at the uh..

airport.

- [Lenny] Oh my god.

- Well, we can cry for God
all we want, but
it's not going to bring

Claire's face back.

- [Lenny] What?
- [Dick] Claire's face was
sheared off..

by an airplane
propeller.

- [Lenny] What?
- [Dick] Claire, was actually
fooling around

acting like a little, "Oh
everything's so fun
on an airplane!"

On the airport tarmac."

And then, whack!

The thing just cut
her head in half.

- [Lenny] Who are you?

- [Dick] Who are you?

- [Lenny] I'm the caterer.

- [Dick] Oh it's nice to
meet you, the caterer.

- [Lenny] Nice to meet you.

- [Dick] Are you stepping in
for Lenny?

- Yeah, no. I'm Lenny, I'm
Lenny Wright.

Wright Caterers. I'm dropping
stuff off for the party.

your hands full but I got to...

- [Dick] Yeah look, Lenny the caterer
in about 24 hours I
got a bunch of people

descending on my home to
celebrate a ten yea anniversary

that was never consummated
because my wife

Claire, the ass face, decided
to divorce me

this morning so please,

if you'll excuse I'm trying
to stop an embarrassment

of legendary proportions from
unfolding.

Thank you.

- [Lenny] Alright, well what do I
do about this?

- [Dick] It's a lot of crap.

- [Lenny] It's a lot of work.
- [Dick] The booze is ours?

- [Lenny] Yep, it goes
in the bar.

- [Dick] Huh, alright, well
you can take that inside.
I'll take the booze.

- Ok.
- What's this?

- [Lenny] That's my lasagna,
- Oh and what's in the...

- Cheesecake.
- [Dick] Oh my god. Wow.

Ok, time out. Cheesecake.

Try the lasagna, and the booze.

- What do you want me to do
with the rest of the stuff?

- [Dick] I don't know. Lenny,
find some skinny kids, feed
them.

[phone ringing]
- Hey Dickie, how are you
brother?
How are things up there?

- [Dick] Not good, really
not good right now,

man it's dire up here.
Ok.

Claire left.

- [Micky] Wait a minute. Left,
left?

- She left. Divorce. And now I
got to cancel the week.

- [Micky] The week, what was
the week?

- [Dick] The week, it's the
anniversary week, is this week,

you were coming up here right?

- [Micky] Probably?

- [Dick] Micky, really?
you know what?
It doesn't matter.

There's events planned on every
day.

There's a bunch of people
coming up here right now.

- [Micky] Hold on second, I'm
here for you.

What can I do for you, little
brother?

- [Dick] I don't know, I don't
want you to go

out of your way
to do anything.

I don't know, still come up
anyway.

- [Micky] Solo [mumbling]
- [Dick] Some brother time?
I don't know....

- [Micky] Yup! Yes! Good!
- [Dick] Yeah?

- [Micky] What?! No.
- [Woman] Wait?

- [Micky] Not you. I can't
Dick.

This is just not a good time.

Hey, you know what?
I got a better idea,

why don't you come down
and see me, get a little L.A.
time.

We'll catch up, get a little
hummus.

Pick up a bunch of uppers
and go paint balling?

[aside] Why are you laughing at that? p[Woman] That sounds awesome.

- [Micky] People paint ball.

- [Dick] I'm not in that state
of mind right now.

Alright, we'll listen man
you sound good,

and really glad you called, and
give Claire my love.

Yeah, you too, and like I said...
[dial tone] Did you hang up?

Son of a bitch.

Hi, Patty, John, I'm sorry
I have to do this right now.

I'm calling to...
I got to cancel the week.

Thomas, Jessie, it's Dick,
I got to talk to you,

The week.

We're concealing the week.

I'm trying to send everybody
emails, and stuff

Claire, just fucking bailed on
me.

Everybody is coming in 24 hrs

I'm just trying to get
everybody to stay goddamn home

Weren't you invited?

It's life, we'll figure it
out one way or the other,

or we won't.

Ah, this is so shitty dude.

I can't control everything in
the universe.

People think I can, but I
can't.

If you hear from Claire. Tell
her that

I've been thinking about her a
lot.

And I hate her guts.

Could you tell her that her
father died?

Just tell her that some people
home invaded the house.

And that I was killed.

Bye bye.

[country music]

Want a taste?

You know what?

This is kind of an opportunity.

We could do stuff that we could
never do before.

You want to sleep in the bed?

Done.
I can wear my hat.

I could wear my hat.

Ok, what do you think?

I know what we can do!

Let's break some of Mommy's
shit.

I'm not an orthopedist Dick,
but the imaging was negative

so my guess is you probably
have some low grade patella

tendon damage and, or
medial meniscus bruising

either way, it ain't
very serious, and it ain't
life threatening.

Alright, let's see now,
I got a.. goddammit.

- [Dick] What are you looking
for?

- Oh, bear with me. Patty?

Oh what the hell!
Nevermind Patty, found it!

Haha, look at that there.
[groans]

Now three very important
steps when you are
putting this brace on.

One, always apply the brace
from the ankle to the thigh
like this.

Step two. Always make sure
the knee setting is

set at minus two.

And three, and this is
the most important step of all.

After you've completed
steps one and two,

get a small tube of salve.
You squeeze about a

dime sized amount

into the palm of your hand
and rub that vigorously

into your vagina.
[giggling]

- [Dick] Can I go now?

- Does that mean I can back to
my bird watching?

- [Dick] Sure.
- [Doctor] Scram.

[beeping]
No, no, no.

No, we're all filled up on the
douche bag department.

- [Thomas] Whoo! Part - tay!

- [Dick] Thomas, what, hey!

- My god, what happened to your
leg?

- What the hell's going on buddy?
[Dick] I was just chopping

some wood and I,
I fell down.

- In your robe?

- You really shouldn't be
walking around with an axe,
Dick.

If I could, just real quick..
[Tom] Bud, where are your
pants?

- [Dick] You're not supposed
to be here.

- Why?
- [Tom] Yeah, missed the
party?

- No, see the thing, Tommy,
the party's canceled, Claire..

wants a divorce.
- Oh god.
- What?

- [Dick] I left you guys a
message.

I sent you an email, I
explained the whole thing in an
email.

- No, Dick I changed the email
to a different email.

- I left a message on the phone.
- A home phone?
- [Dick] Maybe

- I think so.
- No Dick, nobody checks the
home phone,

you gotta call my cell.

- Here's what we're going to
do, you can drop the farm
implement, and we'll put some

trousers on you. And I'll make a meal.pWe'll talk about this.

- [Dick] No, no, no...

- [Tom] We're doing something
here.

- [Dick] No, no you don't
have to do it.

- You guys are so alive together,
so electric.
- Oh yeah we were electric
alright.

But then the wires got really
old and we burnt our fucking
house down.

- God, your wires aren't old,
nobodies house has burned down.

- [Dick] That's really god
damned good.

- [Tom] No need to bring Him
into it.

You can make this recipe right
here in the comfort of your
home.

Using my latest endeavor.
- Ahhh

Look at that handsome devil,
huh, on the cover

of another book. And it's an
Atheist cook book.

Yes and it is personalized to
you.

- [Dick] That's really sweet
buddy. Thank you.

- [Tom] Sure.

- [Dick] Should I burnt it now,
or wait

till you guys leave. "Claire"

- [Tom] I'm an asshole.
- I like the peace, love, and
pepper part.

Tomorrow, good question, I was
thinking I found these

cute purple dinner napkins, and
these little Hi-C juice boxes

and like a shit load of
cyanide, and what I thought
I'd do is

off myself with the dog and
catch a little comet tail out
to a different world

a better place, it's a heaven's
gate...

I know it's kind of little bit
dated but...

- [Jessie] I don't really think
suicide jokes are funny.

Well, we're going to stay here
until you're back on your feet.

- [Dick] No.
- [Tom] Yes.
- [Dick] I am fine.

- She's right.
- [Dick] I'm fine
In fact, I have a plan

A real non suicide plan.

I'm going to go and

do all the things this week
that we had planned

for the anniversary celebration

I'm going to go and do those
things to show Claire

- [Jessie] To show her what?

- [Dick] I'm ok.

A vision quest, you know, I'm
bucia, a little code du sue.

Those crazy fucking Indians
would dig a hole, all the way
out

in the tribe, vision quest, in
the pit, you know?

- Ok, didn't these guys have

medicine man to guide them?
- Not always.
- [Tom] Here we are.

We could be your medicine men.
- Well, I'd be your medicine
woman.

- I was really focusing on the
part where I was in the hole
alone.

- Dick, we're going to stay
here, we're going to do this
with you. It's fate.

- [Tom] Well let's not go
crazy.

- What is on the schedule for
tomorrow?

- I'm sure it's some shit.

[thoughtful music]

- Ok, time to wake up.

♪ And she's everything

I wanted to forget ♪

Flashing eyelashes ♪

- [Tom] Well there's your
problem right there,

you're looking for meaning at
the end

and not in the whole of it.

Ask yourself, do you really
need to find a happy ending in
all this?

Is that really going to help?

- [Dick] Ah Tommy, when did you
become such an asshole?

Jesus Christ.

Claire was here. And now she's
not.

Don't look for meaning where
there isn't any.

[chattering]

[giggling]
I think I was fucking around.

[laughing]
It's just funny.

[sighs]

- [Jessie] I've always loved
you.

It's not like its unmanageable,
hmmm?
Right?

I love my husband,
I love my family

[kissing]

- [Dick] Jessie, no I can't

[sigh]

[sighing]

- [Tom] Do not be a bitch to me!

- [Jessie] Did we finally find
a crack in your impervious
philosophy of

random, fucking
meaninglessness.

- [Tom]I have been more than
tolerant of your little

sexual awakening glory hole
thing.

- [Jessie] We talked about
this.

- We sure as hell never talked
about Dick!

- [Dick] Wait, what?

- I'm not going to do this, I'm
not going to let you rewrite
this,

you don't get to be mad.

- Jess, can I just say, he gets
to be a little mad.

- [Tom and Jessie] shut up
Dick!

- [Dick] Ok, I'm understand
that people are really pissed
off right now,

and I get it. All I'm trying
to, I just think that maybe

we can get through this,
without it being such a big
deal.

- [Tom] Oh so your grand opus
of self destruction

isn't over yet?

You fucked up your own marriage
so you figured hey why not take
ours down with you?

You little piece of shit.

- No Tom, all I'm saying is
that

yeah, okay, my penis was inside
your wife.

[Jessie groans]

so hold, on I'm not finished.
But now my penis is not

inside of your wife.

[Jessie groans]
What I'm suggesting is..

we don't try to find meaning

when there isn't any.

Right?

[whack]
[groaning]
- [Jessie] Wow, Thomas.

- You know what, that's fair.
That's a fair move.

[Jessie] Oh my god!

Oh he hit me right at the top of the head.
[groaning]

- [Tom] You know what really
pisses me off.

You orchestrated this whole
thing Jess.

You weren't worried about Dick.

You didn't want to take care of
him. You wanted to bone him.

- [Jessie] Oh really, well
who's making up stories now,
Thomas?

- You had sexual intercourse
with the man on the porch.

- [Jessie] Yes that has been
very clearly established but

I didn't plan it, I didn't
orchestrate Claire leaving Dick

and I certainly didn't cancel
the party.

And anyway when we got the
email

you were the one who said we
should come up.

- [Dick] Wait. What?

- [Jessie] Yes Dick, we got the
email.

- Then what the hell are you
doing here?

- [Jessie] We thought you
should be around friends and we
knew

you wouldn't let us if we told
you.

But that was his idea. Do you
remember that Thomas?

Huh? We've already booked the
baby sitter, why don't we just
go up?

We'll drink a bunch of wine,
we'll hang out with Dick we'll
relax.

Fucking revisionist.

You know, I'm not going to
apologize for anything. God.

I for twelve years had planned
nothing but focused on this
family.

[clattering]

I have managed my career.

three children, your career...
- [Dick] Okay, time to go!

- What?
- [Dick] I love you but you're
both

fucking crazy and I need you
out of my house.

- Come on Dick!

- No come on Dick, time to go.
- [Jessie] We're working
through
something here,

it's really important and kind
of involves you.

- No, doesn't involve me at
all. Really doesn't.

- [Tom] Ok brother, it's probably
2:30 in the morning

and we are going to have to
drive all the way back to LA.

- [Jessie] It's not safe Dick.

- Okay. You can spend the
night.

But you're out of here at seven a.m.
- [Tom] That's a tad early.

- [Dick] Seven a.m.!

Good night!

That's better, we're getting

[gasp]

- [Dick] T.O. T.O

- T.O.

It's a beautiful day.
- [Dick] Hmmmm

I mean have you ever had a day
this good in your life.

Um yeah.

You smoke?
- [Dick] No, quit years ago.

- How about this guy?

- [Dick] Oh yeah, yeah peace pipe?
- Yeah.
- Sure why not.

- Why don't you get on that.
- Ok
- Just like it looks.

- [Dick] Nice and easy.
- Jump right in.

[inhale]

Wow. I get that one.

- Yeah. Good, right?

- Yeah, it's really good,
really good.

[lighter flicks]
- [Dick] You got the look man.

You're rocking a crazy great
look. I love that headband.

You love the headband?
- [Dick] I do.

- I'm getting you a headband. I
can get you a headband.

You're a broken man.

- Yeah, I mean, it's a little
bit of patella.

Meniscus. I know what you're
saying.

And you came to me for a lesson.

Dick Romans.

- [Dick] I mean, tennis.

- Yeah. Sure.

- Tennis lesson.

Right. A tennis lesson.
[Dick laughs]

There's a little more going on
though. Wouldn't you say?

Yep.

Tennis is not just forehands
and backhands, right?

I mean it is those things.

- [Dick] Because without those
things you know

it's not really even tennis.

- It's not even tennis right.
You have to have forehands and
backhands.

You have to have spin, lob, you
got to have the racket.

- [Dick] There are a lot of
things..

- There are a lot things.
That's very well said.

We are having a moment here.
This is best friends stuff,

my point is, tennis lessons,
life lessons.

Life you only live once.

But tennis, you get to serve
twice.

- [Dick] Wow.

- I mean that's the business.

Am I in your head? Cause I feel
like I'm in your head.

- [Dick] It doesn't work though if you ace everybody.
- Yeah.

- I mean if you're somebody that
just constantly aces people
you don't need a...

you don't need the second serve.
You're winning right off the
bat.

You're just a winner.
So, it's a good quote.

But it's kind of little bit
more of a loser quote.

Looks like things are getting a
little worse around here.

You're probably not hip to all

This is basically called

It's all over Japan. The kids
are wearing neck braces,

like prostetic shoes and
different types of hands.

- Ah well. I guess I'm in.

Why does everyone always

It wasn't a great marriage.
He wasn't a great man.

I mean don't get me wrong
it's not like I hated him
or anything.

He was a good father.

We should of split up way
before then. And we would've of
but then

he got sick and I spent two
years taking care of him.

I couldn't let him do it alone.

And I put my life on hold, it
was pretty bad.

It was hard on all of us.

But it's better now. It's just
better.

What happened to you?

- [Dick] Indeed.

Claire was my producer and we

And it was great. We got

Then the day before

anniversary week, she split.

She had to be pretty desperate
to get out cause

she didn't bother canceling
the anniversary week,

and Claire is not like that.

She's detail oriented. You
worked with her.

- She's got things in order.

- It's just a fucking week.

All you got to do is hug a few

the maze?

- Yeah Dickie listen, I spoke to
Claire's lawyers.

She doesn't want to see you,
doesn't want to talk to you,

doesn't want mediation, and...

- And uh, Dickie,
there's worse news.

- Oh great, as long as there's
worse news, let's hear it.

- [Neil] Normally I wouldn't
bring this up,

but I read your horoscope this
morning. And this is literally,

the worst month in twelve years
for you to be getting a
divorce.

And I'm not talking about the
horoscopes in the back of some
bullshit LA times, Dickie.

This is the guy that Ronald Regan
used.

- [Dick] Oh fantastic
- [Neil] Imagine that, okay?

- [Neil] Exclusive club,
members only invited.

This is the worst time for you
to be thinking about getting a
divorce.

- [Dick] I don't have a lot of
control over that Neil.

Maybe buy her something,
something meaningful.

I use Etsy, are you familiar
with Etsy? This woman,

this lady makes personalized
baskets, handmade they're
wonderful.

Maybe you should think about
getting Claire that? You know?

It'll show her that you're
trying.

- [Dick] Um, I don't even know
what to say to that.

How do I pull that off exactly
when she doesn't want to have
contact with me?

Now you're telling me that I
should get her a fruit basket.

Based on Ronald Reagan's horoscope.
[Neil] They're not just baskets
Dickie, they're

customized to the individual.
- [Dick] Let me ask you
something. Is this the top

This is the good stuff?
- [Neil] I'm sorry Dickie okay?

This is hard on all of us pal.
I mean you and Claire are that

- You guys baked cookies?

Yeah you got to taste one of

They are horrible. Right?

- [Lenny] What? Oh my god.

- [Dick] That's the worst
cookie.

There's a urine kind of
taste to them. I don't know how
you get that in a cookie.

- Why did you make me eat that?

- Your son made those. He takes after you.p- [Lenny] No.

- No, he doesn't. Cause you
actually cook really well. How

for a big country club wedding
and I nailed it.

You mean you want to do it

Yeah, let's do it right now.

Ok, he's drunk. He's been

Today.

Is April 11th, could you state
your name for the record please?

Lenny Jane Wright.
- Lenny Jane Wright.

What should we talk about today?
We could talk about boxing,

we could talk about cats.
We could talk about cat boxes.
We could talk about..

Only children, single mothers
milk of human kindness, the DLP?

Coincidence.
- Let's talk about coincidence.

I was almost an Icelander.

That might be my favorite
sentence I have ever heard.

[laughs] When I was in the
fifth grade, um..

my father was in between jobs

and he worked with computers
and satellites.

And he got this job offer in
Iceland.

So he hired me and my brother
and an Icelandic tutor.

And we spent the entire summer

three days a week learning
Icelandic with Johannes

- [Dick] Ah Johannes.

Anyway, so he was a college student
on break touring America

and he became part of the
family.

He put part of his trip on hold
so that he could stay

and teach us and get us ready.

Because Georgia to Iceland that
is a huge adjustment.

- [Dick] That's a big jump.
- Yeah.

Anyway my father, he goes over
there

to look for a house and to get
us into school

and when he comes back

he shows us this super 8 mm
film that he shot

of this street festival in
Reykjavik.

And there is no sound, so
Johannes is talking us through
it

and he's telling us all

about about the city, and the
food.

and the clothing and all of a
sudden

he just starts crying.

Nobody knows what is going on.

And he just gets up and he
leaves.

And we don't hear from him for
like a week.

And one night my dad gets this
call and Johannes went back to
Iceland.

Now um, the reason was because,

the film my dad showed us.

of the street festival,

in the crowd

Johannes saw his fiancè

making out with his best friend.

- [Dick] Ouch.
- [Lenny] Yeah.

That's my first memory of
anything completely true.

It was proven right there in
front of all us.

It was real.

Just like your final show.

The one that never aired.

- [Dick] Truthfully, there
wasn't much to air.

- [Lenny] January 13, 2012.

- [Dick] You've done your
homework.

- The day that your show died.

was the same day that my
husband died.

January 13, 2012.

It can't just be coincidence.

It's the truth.

And it's not good.

It's not beautiful. It's just
true.

I feel like

life keeps showing me this over
and over again.

I don't know what it means.

Maybe that's why we're here.

To figure it out.

cause my mailbox got wiped out
in a twister

- [Jaron] An e-ticket stupid.

- [Dick] What do you want to
see me for? That bridge is
burned.

- [Jaron] The bridge is mine
now, I'm the one who says

if it's it burnt or not. Okay?

Right now I say the bridge is
not burned.

What don't you understand about
me being president?

So come on man, stop playing
around. You owe me a one on one.

I need to see your face.

- [Dick] Then Skype me and
we'll have a little
conversation over Skype.

- [Jaron] Hey, hey, don't nobody
use Skype no more.

Why do you got to be so
obstinate from Jump Street,
Dick?

- [Dick] I'm not being
obstinate.

- No, no, see this right here,
this behavior right here

is why people passionately
don't like you.

okay, why people like me have
to fight for dumb asses like
you.

- [Dick] But I didn't ask you
to fight for me.

- Shhh. Stop it. Okay.

Cause you wouldn't know what is
good for you if it was blowing
you.

I do. I know what's good for
you.

This is what love feels like.

Bring your ass down to L.A.

- [Dick] Listen,
congratulations on the
promotion.

- Thank you.

And here's my advice, when
they push you out of the window

which they're going to do.

Try to aim for the bodies of
your predecessors,

that'll soften the blow.

- I'll keep that in mind. Now
my advice to you.

When your friend who also
happens to be the President

of a network tells you that
this is your last chance

he's not fucking around.

I will see you Thursday at
eleven a.m.

♪ in front of me

- Dick.
- Lenny.

I think we should probably talk
about yesterday

Can I just, for a real quick...

...about yesterday and the kiss.
The attempted kiss.

It was all my fault.

It was a compulsiveness and
or impulsiveness on my part

and we're not even that. It was
an attraction, in the moment.

I was feeling an attraction
towards you

but I shouldn't have

I shouldn't have done that.

I never had to apologize

for trying to kiss somebody
before so it's a little weird.

- [Lenny] Weird?
- [Dick] It's not about the
kiss though

I mean it is, and I'm sorry I
don't want to take away from
that

I have been giving this a lot
of thought and what I've come
up with is

I'm having legitimate feelings
for you

- [Lenny] Legitimate feelings?

- [Dick] Romantic, love
feelings.

- [Lenny] No.
- [Dick] No, no, you got to
hear me out.

Please Lenny

- [Lenny] No, Dick, this is
bull shit.

- No its not bullshit.

- Oh yeah, it is, it's bull
shit. I don't need to hear it.

[door slams]

What makes you think you have
legitimate love feelings?

Everything. You.

We're in all girl gangster rap
band

and so many things. You like my
hat.

Your son is super cool.
Stewart. And he's always saying
asshole.

and I think that's funny. And I
really, I like your food.

And I love the way that you
tell stories and Lenny I think

that you and I are are funny
and sad in the same way.

- [Lenny] Okay.
[door slams]

What's your problem?
Which one?

No jokes asshole. I'm trying to
raise a kid here,

I'm trying to keep a business
afloat.

You think you're going to knock
on my door

and sweep me off my feet.
Because I said I liked your hat?

Or am I just some twitchy
blonde that is going

to jump into your arms because
after three days

you think you have romantic
love feelings.

Your wife just left you. Grow
the fuck up Romans.

I don't need this particularly
headache in my life right now.

You're not going to complete
me.

[door slams]

Oh god.

[door shuts]
[exhales]

It's fine.. it's fine.

[ticking]

- [Dick] That's a great painting

- There's a crazy story behind that painting. p- Oh yeah?

[fast tense music]

- [Mick] What?
- [Dick] Are you going to tell
me the story?

- Do you want to hear it? - Ok.

- I was in Costa Rica and I was
on a bus that broke down

right outside of [speaks
Spanish]

so this chick, she wanders off
the bus

I think to get some fresh air,
stretch her legs.

She steps right into a fox
trap.

You know your brother, man, I
just go into hero mode.

I didn't do anything medical or
that great

I just fashioned her a
tourniquet from some cocoa bolo
branches.

Sprinkled water on her lips,
- [Dick] Kept her hydrated.

- [Mick] I let her use my ipod

Because I think that music has
a really calming soothing
effect

on people. There were tracks
that I were working on

they weren't mastered so I was a first a little..

She didn't seem to mind too
much.

She was screaming pretty loud.
I don't even know if she heard
the music.

After she got out of the
hospital, she invited me to
stay with her.

Which was super cool you know,
she had this rad little place
on the beach

You would have really dug it.
We just lived, man and hung out.

And I made music.

And she painted, we laughed,
and we made love every day.

Mostly in the mouth because I
couldn't stand to look at her

from the waist down because it
was really tough

her leg was so disgusting.

To me, it's life

It's sort of wobbly and
unpredictable

but you have to embrace it.

Before I spilt I stole that
painting.

[Dick grunts]

So was next for you? Didn't you
have this sort of deal going
down

- [Dick] At the network maybe,
who cares, it's probably just a
run around, it doesn't matter.

- [Mick] No it does, you have
to stay positive with this kind
of thing.

- [Dick] Do you have to really?
Staying positive can help you?

- I think it would be great,
you know change of scenery for
you,

come out to L.A., kind of boost
your energy a little bit.

LA is great for that what
would be cool

is you'd be here for the birth
too

- [Dick] Birth? Of what?

- [Mick] Baby's due in early
September.

- [Dick] What are... I'm just
not sure what the fuck you're
talking about man.

- [Mick] Lydia is pregnant.

- [Dick] Oh.

Who's Lydia?

[Mick] Lydia is my lady.

And she's pregnant with your
baby. That's what you tell me
right now,

that you're going to have a
baby in a couple months.

That's it. This is the first
time I'm hearing about this
Mick.

- [Mick] I thought I told you.

- [Dick] Dude!

Come here, really?

- [Mick] Yeah. Surprised you.

- [Dick] It's beautiful man,
it's beautiful.

And crazy and funny.

And sad.

- [Mick] Why sad?

I don't know. I don't even know
why I said it.

I really don't

- [Mick] cause I know what you
mean.

- [Dick] It's weird right?

It is a little sad.

[electronic music]

- [Dick] You know what have
been really sweet is if I was

good enough husband to get one
of those mugs

that says world's greatest
husband.

- [Mick] I got seven Grammys.

- [Dick] Seven Grammys?
- [Mick] So what.

- [Dick] So what?

- [Mick] I tell you so what, it
feels great.

- [Dick] It's not about the
mugs,

I don't care about the mugs.

I'm lost. I'm stuck.

- [Mick] I'm like in a maze.

I was in Glastonbury for a
little

it was a little festival,
there's was I party I wound up
at

over at Annie Lennox's castle,
and she has this hedge maze.

It's one of these traditional
old fashioned

it was real, there I was in the
middle of this hedge maze

and I'm not doing too well.

I kind of stop, and I plant
myself

because I don't want get any
further in.

Anyway, here comes Annie Lennox

and she grabs my hand and looks
me directly in the eyes

she said put your hand on the
maze wall

and you leave it there.

As long as you have your hand
on the wall and keep moving,

you'll find your way out.

Oh man. It was amazing.

- [Dick] So you made it out of
the maze?

- [Mick] No, I don't believe I
did.

[sigh]

- [Dick] I think it might be
time for bed.

[ding]

- [Dick] Look they might be
using Jaron to lure me down
here so they can

take turns throwing cinder
blocks at me. If things get
ugly

I want you to start kicking
some throats.

Oh oof.

[faint rock music]

By chance do you have one of
those mini scissors, the travel
size?

I don't want to pull this.
Lose a button.

No?

[spits]

Gentleman, Mr. Young is ready
for you.

- [Jaron] Where is he? There's
my..

What the hell?
- [Dick] I know.

- what you Robo Cop, you Steve
Austin?

You got like a fake eye and
shit. What happened to you?

- [Dick] You think that's bad
you should have seen the bear I
strangled.

- [Jaron] In the mountains?
- [Dick] Yeah big old black
bear.

- Oh you said it was a black
bear. You stupid...

You're strangling gummy bears.

You got a belly and shit.
Alright you guys, Harvard,
Columbia, Wharton,

Columbia, Wharton,

meet Dick Romans and his man,
Neil something.

- [Caroline] It's Caroline.
-

- Nice to meet you.
- Really great to meet you.

- Oh, okay

- [Jaron] Well listen man, this
is what happens when you're good

when you stay in Los Angeles,
you could keep your head out of
your ass,

and frankly

don't set shit on fire.
[laughing]

- [Dick] Well let me be the
first one to say that the chair
fits you.

- [Jaron]Yeah?
- [Dick] Yeah.

- [Jaron] Thank you brother
- [Dick] Congratulations

I only have one question.

And that is what the fuck am I
doing here?

[laughing]
This brings back bad memories.

[laughing]

I got your show. We've got your
show.

We've got your shit. It's huge.

This is the show that your
momma popped you out of the
belly for.

You're home.

And your safe. Your boy's
president.

Can I get my pitch on.

- [Dick] Sure.

You remember we used to talk
about the info-tainment shows
of the seventies?

Real People, That's Incredible,
even 60 Minutes right?

You know they interviewed
people on a quest to find a
real America.

On our show, our quest is to
find the real Dick Romans.

Okay?

It's all about you.

Alright this is your chance to
shout from the rooftop, push
the envelope, show the world

who you truly are, show them
the things that you like...

[inspirational music]

- [Neil] What is that?
- [Dick] What?
- [Neil] The look on your face?

What is that?
- [Dick] I'm thinking. It's a
lot to process.

- [Neil] Yeah well process
saying yes, because that happens
only one in million

this is a new beginning for you
Dickie, you need this.

- [Dick] Yeah, how do you know
it's not a dead end?

- [Neil] It's not a dead end. We
got a lot of work to do,

I got to get you complete
control. I'm going to send a
lot of emails right now,

have her start draft up the
paperwork. This is really
exciting stuff Dickie.

- [Dick] What's the matter with
me?

Why I am here?

- [Neil] Why are you here?
You're starting over.

- [Dick] I don't want to start
over.

Is Claire in Los Angeles?

- [Neil] Yeah but she's not
going to talk to you.

I don't need her to talk to me.

I just want her to sit down.

Could you do that for me?

- [Neil] I can try.

Yeah.

[Dick] Let's go this way.

[gentle music]

[waves gently crashing]

[silverware clattering]
[seagulls calling]

[footsteps]

[clears throat]

[Claire] Okay, can I go now?

Okay, let's do it.

[rustling]

- [Dick] What's today?
- [Claire] Fourteenth.

- [Dick] Happy anniversary.

I'm sorry. I'm really sorry.

I loved you with everything
that I had

and I'm just starting to
understand that I didn't have
very much.

- Hi.
- Hi.

- I'm sorry for disturbing you,
I just had a really quick
question that I wanted to ask.

- [Lenny] Could I say something first?
- [Dick] Sure.

- It's just that

you know, last time you came by

I couldn't do that right then.
Okay?

My mind couldn't do that.

I just couldn't process the
idea of a romantic gesture

from you

or anybody, or nobody

You know what I mean?
- [Dick] I do.

- The idea of being kissed

It just felt so wrong

With all the unhappiness

death and the guilt.

But I turned all that, I shut
it off

all that stuff

You started fiddling with all
those knobs

and it really just kind of
pissed me off.

Does any of this make any sense?
- [Dick] Total sense.

Okay.

I've been giving it a lot of
thought.

I think that we could be good
friends
- [Dick] Yeah.

and if we're good friends then
who knows what.
- [Dick] Who knows?

I think you're a good man.

- [Dick] Thank you.

- [Lenny] I like you.
- [Dick] I like you too.

[laughing]

Was there something you wanted
to say?

- [Dick] Oh, I just joined up
with the fire patrol

and was just making sure that
your brush was cut back to the
legal standard

and you're doing fine.
- [Lenny] Thank you.

Carry on ma'am, your brush is...
- [Lenny] Just tell me.

- [Dick] No, I don't think I
can. Probably better if I don't.

- [Lenny] Speak.

- [Dick] You ever consider
selling the RV?

To me.
[laughing]

- [Lenny] It's not for sale.
- [Dick] Okay, I was just
checking.

Of course it's not for sale.
Ok yeah.

I was just checking. I know
it's weird. But thanks though.

We're going to be in touch in
soon right?

We'll go on one of our famous
wine tasting expeditions.

- [Lenny] Dick?

- [Dick] Yep?

You could borrow it.

- [Dick] I could borrow it.

[Lenny] Yeah.
