(tense music)

- [Papa] That's 12 two.

You don't have to wait for a suitcase

and leave the train station,

walk over to find a bus.

- Oh, Lord those buses
this time of the night,

they're miles apart.

It's raining cats and dogs (indistinct).

- Well, at least I've had a great job.

- Hm, like father like son.

We don't know that.

We don't even know if he passed.

It's so emotional.

Papa?

- [Papa] Hmm.

- [Mama] Take off your shoes.

- What for?

- You'll be more comfortable,
put your slippers on.

- But just before dinner?

- You think you can indulge.

- [Papa] What's the matter with you?

- Papa, where's his letter?

- Here.

- You had to pocket it.

It's not addressed to you
personally, so far as I know.

Carry is my son too.

- Mama, I just wanted to read it again.

I mean-

- You know it by heart.

Give it to me.

- Boy, boy, (laughs).

You're something (laughs).

- Papa, did you get the wine?

- Yeah, I bought him two bottles.

- Two?

- Well, you said two.

- One.

You're not allowed to drink wine.

I only have a sip or two
and carry only drinks water.

What do we need two bottle for?

- Mama, we should celebrate
his return, I mean-

- By getting him drunk?

Good lord, what a brilliant idea.

For a kid who can't even
(indistinct) part of me.

- What does that mean?

- His stomach, his pancreas, his liver.

Poor baby.

I bet he got hungry.

I know he is cold.

Oh, it's so dirty out there,

I was a fool to ever let him go.

Papa, watch out for the wine,

are you trying to break it?
(Papa laughing)

Filthy garbage bin.

- I told you not to touch
that, I was gonna fix it.

Are you bleeding?

- Where do you want me to put the garbage

on the table, Papa?

- I promise you I'll fix it
as soon as I have a chance.

- Oh, please, wait, wait.

(dog whining)
(feet shuddering on the floor)

- What is it that noise?

(Mama shushing)
(dog barking)

- It's a dog digging in the trash.

(Mama sighing)

Papa stop standing with the cork.

- God dammit.
(bottle bangs on the table)

- [Mama] Papa?

- [Papa] Hm?

- [Mama] What's the matter with your back?

- [Papa] No, nothing.

- No, nope, you're walking funny.

Did you hurt your back.

- No, no, no, no, no.

- Does it hurt?
- No, no, not at all.

Not at all.

- You're all twisted, did you
take your rheumatism pills?

- Yes, the blue ones, the blue ones.

- The blue ones, oh, Lord
Papa, if you keep mixing

your colors you're really
gonna be in trouble.

Blue heart, yellow liver,
gray spleen, green kidneys-

- Green, kindeys.

- Green kidneys, yellow liver,
gray spleen, blue heart.

- What about the pink ones?

- Your intestines.

- Oh, God (laughs).

- I took the blue ones, the
blue ones are for the heart.

- Papa, take the white ones,
the white ones, rheumatism.

How many times did Dr. Otero told you

not to stop taking them.

Do you think you're still a young man?

- Honey, please stop treating
me like an old man, honey.

I'm fine, look, look
- Papa, no, no

don't do that.
- One, two, three, four.

- [Mama] Listen you're hurting your back.

- Oh, dammit.

- Oh, Lord you're paralyzed.

- Oh, no, no something
is stuck in my back.

- [Mama] Just a minute,
wait, I'll call doctor-

- Don't call the doctor,
just give me a hand.

- Oh, I knew it, I knew it, I knew it,

I'm suffering for you, but you deserve it.

- Will you help me, will you help me?

- Yes, Papa-
- Just, just

help, help me will you.

- Oh, Lord, exhausted as are (indistinct)

You've got to take care Papa,

I keep telling you over and over again.

- That's why I'm exhausted.

- [Mama] Oh, I'm exhausted too.

- You're exhausted, I'm
exhausted, we're all exhausted.

Just push on my leg, will you.

Oh, no, harder, harder.

(groans) That's it.
- All right, okay.

- [Papa] Thanks.
- Come on, here we go, Papa.

Yeah, now, (groans).

- [Papa] Steady, stead.

- There, you can make it.

There we go, on your feet.

There, oh, Papa, come on.

Here, can you walk?

- Yeah.

- Try and walk, try and walk, that's it.

Your age, no shame to be handicaped.

- Oh, God.

- There, Papa, don't lean on the table.

Oh, Papa, oh, there's grease on the table.

- I want you to find
any grease on my hands.

- You tried to make a (indistinct),

I mean, there's a grease mark.

Oh, he must have missed his train,

otherwise he'd be here.

Look at that rain.

Oh, and he's so fragile, so fragile.

Ever since he was a child,
he's been so delicate,

so prone to illnesses.

- A baby that weighed 10 and a half pounds

when he was born, he was
almost abnormal, he was so fat.

- You're telling me, it
wasn't you was ripped apart

when he was born.

I almost lost my life,
he was such a big child.

Oh, Papa, why did he have to grow up?

- He had to become a man.

- Are you a man?

(jazz instrumental music)

Got to lay in bed, Papa.

(Papa sighs)

- You know sometimes I feel

that you've got something against me.

(feet thumps)

(knife scraping on the board)

- Well, don't slice too much.

Once it's sliced it'll dry out.

No point in wasting it.

We're doing without
enough things as it is.

- [Papa] For instance?

- The little niceties in life

- Are you hinting about that car again?

What the hell would we do with a car?

You know I failed my driving test.

- Five times.

I couldn't look the neighbors in the eye.

- You think I didn't wanna pass?

First, I couldn't afford a car.

When I saved a little money

they wouldn't give me my license.

- Oh, why didn't you open the wine.

(Mama sighs)

It's so dark out there.

(daunting music)

Evening, I begin to feel
tense, it's black, pitch black,

and they keep talking about
putting in the street lights.

It's like the sea.

You were gonna take to see, remember?

- Mama, we went.

- One for 15 minutes, 27 years ago.

And I still up here (indistinct).

I smell the salt air,
the seagulls circled,

screaming high above my head.

Would it be real if it
comes right out of my head.

- Mama?

Mama, I promise I'll take you back.

- When, when, (laughs), my life's over,

and I've never seen any of the world.

How many times I stood at
this window and I looked out,

at what, nothing.

When all the people were
driving away in a nice cars

and waving and smiling, we
like a couple of dummies

motored down, like a couple of nules

for miles and miles to catch and old bus,

that wasn't eve on time.

Oh, God, just like poor folk.

- Mama we were rich.

- Well, whose fault was it.

- It was because of the depression.

(suspense music)

- I could have Had a life like Lena's.

- Tell me what the hell does Lena have

that you don't?

- A rich husband, and she has a maid,

and she goes to the beauty parlor.

She travels, I mean, in the winter time

they go down to Orlando
and stay in this palace.

- Tell me, can you see yourself staying

at a palace in Orlando?

- I sure could.

- Mama, the place where she's goes is full

of old people they ain't
gonna find their rent,

they will come and collect phones.

You know their main distraction

is comparing their varicose veins.

They're all alone and bought a desk.

Nobody likes him.

And they like nobody.

And they expect money,
and you know what Mama?

You want to know something now, ah?

They are without love.

- But they are rich.

- Well Mama then, you
shouldn't have met me,

(indistinct) just as awful.

It's shocking.

- Shocking.

Shocking is the living (indistinct).

I've been humiliated too often.

During the depression,

I had to go out and strap doors,

and clean those filthy houses,

for those devious greedy
but rich white trash.

You, how are you and a nourish idiot.

You had a little meat on your bones.

You would chucky white almost transparent.

Oh God, enough what now,

You were honest, God knows you're honest,

but so them (indistinct)

and you guys are going to kill.

How long is it taken.

But as I'm speaking to you today,

I was at lesson live in the poorest

of the poor should expect.

Now she has a son in
the middle of the night,

sometimes when they get
up to go to the bathroom,

sorry I find it right
here, sitting in this chair

just staring off into the distance.

- On that chair?

- Her eyes wide open, the bathroom

airflow just lower inner thoughts.

- What did she think about Papa?

- Who not you I guess, who else
would she be thinking about?

- [Mama] Carry.

- Coming Mama.

So Papa tell me some more.

- Mama didn't want Carry to
go to the training center.

You know, after all he'd
never left home before.

I suppose you have to say
probably your parents.

- Her father's already dead.

- Oh, I didn't mean, please
accept my condolence.

- Okay Papa, he died over 30 years ago.

- [Mama] Carry?

- Coming.

You don't like that, you
don't like guns, a father.

You're still a father.

I mean, you only get one in life,

for terrible loss when the father dies.

I mean, something you never did over.

Even at my age, it's
still I haven't gotten

to know what they did to my father.

And I don't mean to say that
a mother is not important.

It's just, I don't know why,

it's different case with a mother.

I mean, I don't know.

It's just different, you know.

You Really, you don't write the deal.

I totally changed to get the drinking.

(Papa whispers)

(laughs)

- Carry tells me that his
friend from the training center

wants to stay for diner.

- (indistinct) There was no problem.

It's totally natural.

you here as a guest for dinner.

Would you please help me set the table?

There really is no fear of
Mama cares from the depression.

That's why she always piles food.

We're loaded down with cans

of everything from flour to rice.

How many plates (indistinct),

Here would you please (indistinct).

Sometimes they have so much food

Carry?

- Hmm.

- Kiss me.

You never left me before, did you?

- Mama? (laughs)

- We've always lived together
just the three of us.

We devoted an entire
life to his education.

We wanted him to do better than we did.

We sacrificed everything for it.

- I didn't ask for anything, Mama.

- Oh, I didn't mean that.

Honey, I have no regrets.

It's that I don't understand.

With your father's education,

you could have done far better.

My husband never mentioned it

but he's got a stack of diploma.

And it's quite a responsibility.

He's in charge of all those parking lots.

- Mama one lousy parking
Ilana crumby (laughs).

I'm just one of the attendants.

- Are you drunk?

- In a four-by-four booth
and I see a bunch of tickets.

A bunch tickets with this
all day long (laughs).

Oh, yes, sometimes I make changes.

- He doesn't drink very much.

No drink (indistinct)

I suppose you're not gonna tell us

that you didn't finish high school.

- Well, like everybody else.

- Too petty.

Back then you had so many
chances, so many contexts.

(indistinct)

What makes you money?

What about Leo Graham?

- I didn't know him.

What?

But he is a girl with your child

that you played together Little Mitchelle.

- Oh my God, you're right
I was four-years-old.

I had a fight with a little
girl on this public park

and about a pain and a shovel

and the news broke it up and she told

the nurse told my mother that the child

was related to Leo Graham.

I never saw a little girl again.

- It would make a liar of me.

You think we were half cast.

We know nobody, we've
never had any friends.

- Mama we didn't have any friends.

- Well, what about the bikini,
the bone gay, the Bradley's.

I mean, they were all our
friends, rich, brilliant.

They invited us
everywhere, do you remember

all the lovely parties? (laughs)

- Sure mama, all because I did
him a favor at the City Hall.

You're right, you're right.

There is the bikini didn't
write as one and only once.

And that was to a funeral of the niece.

I don't think we went, did we?

- No, problem, but we couldn't.

Baby you had chickenpox and
they couldn't leave him.

You dispatch yourself like a
dog would have been. (laughs)

Do you know I didn't want
you to have birth marks.

So I tied my hands to yours
so I could suffer with you.

You were such a difficult child.

No approach though (sighs).

And I think that the
patience I had with myself

just to teach you the first word

mama, mama, mama.

- That's why he didn't say
Papa until he was 2 1/2.

- Three.

Your lungs was so delicate.

I had to put you into my bed every night,

I hold you close me just to keep you warm.

- I wasn't allowed to come
into your room for months,

for months I slept on
that damn coach all along.

- [Mama] Papa had to bail all alone.

- I was asking for my
sister come between you

once in a while.

Was I asking too much.

- Would you take my body from him.

- I know how to sleep with my wife.

I mean, men get married
to sleep with their wives.

- Why didn't you tell my father
when you are (indistinct)

- Because you were pregnant.

- I guess that's when
I was on the way, huh?

(dramatic music)

- No, the other one.

- Papa.

- What other one?

Mama what are you two talking about?

Was there another child or what?

- That child as I know would
be four years older than him.

It was stillborn.

- Mama this is true?

- The birth is recorded to the County.

- Papa, that's enough.

- Baby was baptized in the name of Carry.

(somber music)

She was a girl.

Mama we promised ourselves
the story we would tell him

and I think the time has come.

I'm gonna get some coffee.

- Papa.
- Your father is sick.

Carry he is really sick.

- What are you talking about Mama?

- Carry I've been trying
to get him to doctor.

- Mama tell me the truth.

What was he talking about, Mama?

Was he telling the truth?

Yes or no Mama?

Tell me.

Mama, was there anybody

in this house named Carry besides me?

Tell me Mama.

- She didn't live.

- So Papa told the truth?

- Being named Carry just long enough

to come out of the womb
and go into a casket.

Does that really count?

- Mama listen to me,

was her name Carry, yes or no, Mama?

- Yeah.

- Tell me.

- Carry yes.

Yes, that was her name.

Thank you Mama.

Come on Regina.

- What have I done to you?

- Mama, Regina and I gonna
get married in a month

on the 15th in Baton Rouge

and I don't want you to come.

- You're judging us
without knowing the facts.

- I know it Mama.

- You'll listen to me anyhow.

- Why?

- Because your father is
jealous of his own son.

- What the hell are you
telling the boy for jealous.

- Yes, jealous, jealous.

Jealous fro that moment he
was born you've been jealous,

and you forced yourself on me,

I didn't know anything I was innocent.

You lie, you bragged enough
about not being a virgin.

- Don't make me feel
guilty about that murder.

- What do you mean murder?

- Who are you to decide what's a murder?

I was alone, alone.

Fighting, desperate, shame.

Yeah I took some pills.

I did everything I could do,

anything to get rid of
that illegitimate thing

that was inside me.

- You succeeded my Carry, my Carry died.

- If I have the same need to do again,

I would do it exactly the same.

- Oh God, oh God.

- What about me?

Where do I fit to all these?

I'm like the feeling that I'm
taking somebody else's place.

- Oh no my baby, no, no.

I wanted you with all my strength,

with every fiber of my body

with my eyes, with my blood.

- Can you do that?

Carry, Carry I wanted you,

I wanted you long before
I knew you could exist.

I loved you long before
you were conceived.

I used to pray for you night after night.

Night I wake up with eyes
wide open in the dark

and imagine the warm of your flesh.

Is your cry, your smile.

Oh, I used to talk to Carry.

And I waited and waited
for you months after months

and when the moment you came

and I hold you in my arms.

Nothing is started, but you nothing.

(dramatic music)

- Excuse me.

Excuse me I'm going to bed.

- Tell me before you go anywhere,

in front of your son,

- No.

- And you and the presence of your father?

- No.

- Have I been a perfect mother to you?

- Yes.

- Hey, well then, good night Papa.

- Good night.

- Papa, aren't you sleeping in your room?

- (mumbles) Today comfortable.

- It's a nice place to sleep.

You can share my room with me.

- No, thank you, Mama.

- It's your father just
giving you his place?

- No.

- Carry, be nice.

(gentle music)

- Papa I play, you have
to get up with it anymore.

Don't forget to put out the lights.

Don't make any noise in the morning,

- Oh, goodnight.

- Goodnight who?

I'm in the way, but I'm getting
out you'll be (indistinct).

Maybe won't take me long
to park, I have nothing.

- Mama.
- Oh, nothing, no.

Everything I carry, always I carry.

Before anything in your first communion,

I have nothing, I owe nothing.

I owe you my house,

and I'm living it to you.

Take your hands off me,

I'm ashamed of you, I've paid
your mortgage, all paid off

and (indistinct) humiliation.

And to you, I'm leaving everything

in perfect working order, the pasta bands,

the dishes, the whole ball of wax.

You'll find the cleanses under the sink

and the canned goods, the
beverages in the pantry

and if you look for a barbecue

because there isn't one.

- Why are you doing all these?

Why are you packing and it's stupid Mama?

I mean nobody's asking

- Nobody is going-

- No, I'm living.

- Well that's because

Her father died before she was born, Mama.

The lady is very, very old.

- I keep forgetting this Mr. Bailey.

Is he your uncle, godfather or-

In fact, some years ago, Mr.
Bailey had gone to the spa

for his health he was already very sick

and became such good friends

is part of his household staff.

- Oh gosh, that's nice.

Are there any other children,
legitimate children?

- Legitimate?

Let's see five children,
three boys, two girls.

Of course, they've all grown
up and are at home by now.

You see, the more or
less on speaking terms

with Virginia's mother.

To babysit the grandchildren.

- Mama we wanna have three?

- She's too old.

Her womb already dried out.

- What are you talking about Mama?

- Oh look at her white tickling, a looser,

she has nothing, she is nothing.

But she'll be a burden to you.

- How can you say that Mama?

- She'll crush you by her
dullness, her emptiness.

- Mama, I want to marry her.

- Did she ever tell you about
her life before you met her?

- What difference does it make?

- She's the daughter of a (indistinct)

and if your of sexual betrayal deathbed

with a colleague politician,
doesn't like her mother.

- You are lying.

- No, I'm protecting my son.

Your mother lived as a
man who takes pity of her,

because she gave him an illegitimate child

conceived in a moment of bored and you.

- That's not true.

- Oh yes you're bastard.

- Okay, please.

- Mama, take back what you just said.

- If you follow her you'll
live a life of poverty,

the dreams that four people dream

without even having children

This is not exactly what
I dream for you, Carry.

- [Carry] Are you making
all these up, Mama?

- Oh no, you drawn away all of it,

just wondering how this
would have ended all

is very simple.

Regina is going to the door,
she is going back to the train,

tonight you'll spend all alone.

- Regina aren't you gonna say something.

Defend yourself at least.

- I want to go home.

- I'm gonna go with you.

- No Carry.

- [Carry] I have to go with her Mama.

- Damn, it's raining, you can't go.

But you'll understand, won't you Regina?

- Goodbye Carry.

- Regina, Regina don't.

Regina don't live me like
this, please, Regina.

- Goodnight Regina.

(door bangs)

(suspense music)

(indistinct)

At the moment, you
can't see beyond things,

you can't hear beyond words.

Do the condemn man.

Believe me honey, I'm not
against you getting married.

But not just anywhere,
anytime with anyone.

And also, it's not very nice

to show up without an invitation.

It's really bad manners.

(thunder rumbling)

- Should blame me for
that Mama was my fault.

- Oh you will miss that.

You're handsome boy.

You sentimental, honest,
gullible, the ideal prey.

Mama hasn't got a chance to
get the cleverness of a woman.

Nowadays I'll go to any
lengths to get your man.

(thunder roaring)

- What do you do all these clothes, Mama?

- I'm going to put them back in that box.

- You keep everything?

- Everything, I never throw anything away,

might come in handy.

Tomorrow we'll call Mandini.

I'm going to arrange for you

to be transferred back home.

Paint your room, change your mattress.

- And my springs too?

- Mm-hmm, the whole bed.

- You'll be very comfortable.

Do you like some tea?

You're (indistinct).

- No, Mama.

- Papa?

- I had a nightmare.

(dramatic music)

Just woke up.

Oh, I'm thirsty.

(dramatic music)

I must be late.

- Very late.

- I didn't think it's gonna be up.

What's all this?

- I was just (indistinct).

- Is your friend on to bed?

- Papa, it's late.

You have to get up in the morning.

(Papa sighs)

- What are you dong?

- Sitting in my own chair.

- In the middle of the night.

- I slept, didn't I?

- No, you have, now come on Papa.

Go on, go back to bed.

- Where is Regina?

- Do you mind if I have
just a few moments alone

with my own son.

- Is she gone?

- Oh God, Carry.

You let her go through you?

- What do you expecting to do, chain her?

- No, I'd follower her?

His live you might have
dared to say no to you.

- Have you ever said no to me?

- Mama.

- Don't you get involved in this.

- She must still be there on the platform,

under the rain.

- Let her stay there.

- You're idiot.

Son this is your chance.

Come on.

- You're crazy Papa.

- Carry.

- You let him go.

- No, no.

- Carry, what are you waiting for?

Believe me, you're gonna miss her.

Go on, go on.

What?

- Carry, Carry, Carry, Carry.

- No, please let him go, please Mama.

Please let him.
(Mama crying)

- He's gone Papa.

- Mama, Mama he's 36 years old.

He has a right to his own life, dear.

Mama, come on.

I swear I'll make it up to you honey.

Mama I'll make it up to you.

Just you and me, sweetheart,
I'll make it up to you.

Oh honey, oh Mama, Mama, Mama. (kissing)

- You make me sick.

- What the hell did you say?

Don't you to treatment me like that,

don't you ever talk to me like that again.

(indistinct)

Life hurts.

I could have put 16 of
then, everyday of my life.

Do you know that?

You know I've never
looked at another woman?

I never even got caught.

Look at me, I'm getting old.

I'm not used to anybody
and I regret, oh God.

Oh God I regret.

Tell me where was my life gone?

Look at me, look at me,

what have I done with my life?

What the hell have you done with my life?

- I'll tell you.
- I'll tell you what?

All your nudging, you're personality,

you're God damn scuff, you take your pill.

And I love to live you like...

I gave him to your lovely
women you know why?

Hey you wanna know why?

Just to get a smile out of you.

No come on, you made me pushed

that baby cage every Sunday afternoon

on empty street sniping with heat.

You wearing a tie with
prattle leather shoes.

Just so you could show
off your blue ribbon baby

in your model husband.

I'd come at home, having every
(indistinct) with that dummy

to whom was the pharmacist but the baker,

the grocer, the Cuban.

You could have cared less.

My god I was 30-years-old.

People behind my back were snickering.

Do you know what they were calling me?

Do you know what they said about me?

(laughs)

There goes the same.

- Papa, it's the worst thing.

- I'm a jackass, so as my son.

You wanna know something I don't?

I don't even think he is my son.

- I got you.

- Come on, come on.

I know what I'm saying.

I know what I'm saying.

Well, what about that Cuban?

Yeah, what about that?

You thought I was blind?

Did you really think I was blind

that every time you went into a shop,

I mean, that Winx behind my back

the snickering and oh, boy.

Oh, boy, did you love it?

Tell me, tell me, just tell me.

What went on in the afternoons

when I was stuck away in my office?

- Oh god you've been living
with this life of worrying.

Nobody's ever touched me but you, nobody.

I love you.

- You were right.

You swear?

- Oh, I swear, I swear on me.

- Come on, don't touch me.

You swear on your son's head.

- I swear on all that.

Your son (indistinct).
- Stop it.

Okay.

All right.

Good night.

You wake me at six

on some bacon eggs and strong coffee.
