Hi, Grandma.

You look beautiful.

Are you feeling better today?

What? I asked if you were feeling better
today.

I feel fine.

But I'd feel a whole lot better if
someone would tell me who you are.

Grandma, it's me.

It's Tara.

I don't know you.

Help! Help!

Grandma, it's okay. It's me. Help!

What's happening to my grandmother?

Why don't you leave for a few minutes?
She'll be fine.

Help! Help!

Help!

He doesn't even remember me anymore.

I know.

Alzheimer's is cruel that way.

Who a person is, the things that make
them special, it all goes away.

That's why you have to focus on
everything she gave you and hold on to

experiences.

That's how you keep her alive inside of
you.

What? Is he hurting?

Absolutely not.

We won't let that happen, Tara. That's a
promise.

We will always take care of her and make
sure she feels safe and comfortable.

Thank you, Dr. Adler.

I wish we could do more for her.

I'll be back tomorrow.

Come on, people, move it. Let's get Mr.
Lewis set up in here.

Okay, we got her.

I'm sorry to rush you all, but his
family's going to be here at three o

Come on, gentlemen.

Are those all of Mr. Lewis's photos? I
can swear he had a few more. Mr.

Lewis here?

Bring him in, please.

Easy now, Mrs. Banano.

Where?

Come on.

There is nothing wrong with your
television.

Do not attempt to adjust the picture. We
are now controlling the transmission.

We control the horizontal and the
vertical. We can deluge you with a

channels or expand one single image to
crystal clarity and beyond.

We can shape your vision to anything our
imagination can conceive.

For the next hour, we will control all
that you see and hear.

You are about to experience a mystery
which reaches from the deepest inner

mind.

In a world where youth is valued more
than wisdom, what will become of our

elders?

Let's take it on home.

Happy 75, Grandpa.

All right. Did you hear what I found
just now?

A cat house in New Orleans.

It's a joke, Hank.

How come I'm not laughing?

I can only imagine what else my father's
been teaching him.

Well, now, this may be my birthday, but
I got a little present for my grandson

Ronnie here.

A little song I wrote called Sitting
Here Blue.

Well, I got no job, but I don't give a
damn.

Ain't no paycheck in this world gonna
make me who I am. I got this unhurried,

no excuse.

Perfectly happy just sitting here loose.

Start packing that up, please.

Don't spoil the fun, Hank. Please.

No kind of fun.

Just wanna play this old guitar and wear
no shoes.

I got this unhurried, no excuse.

Perfectly happy just sitting here blue.

Yeah.

Oh, hey, Joe.

Come here, come here, come here, come
here.

Hey, listen.

I've been thinking about that song you
wrote for me.

Now, it's sort of Robert Johnson. Robert
who?

Those lips are all mine, sonny.

No, you're thinking too hard. Just let
it happen.

Yeah. That's cool.

Ronnie, is your homework done?

Looks to me like you're screwing around.

Yeah, little man, that cord that you're
doing. Do your damn homework, Ronnie.

It's important.

What are you afraid of?

If he takes two minutes off, he won't
get into college? Stay out of this, Joe.

It's none of your business.

Well, all I meant was... I don't care
what you meant.

You had a chance to be a father and you
opted out. Then you leave him out of

this. It's okay, Ronnie.

It's okay.

I know you... Look, man, are you happy?

You win, okay?

You win. You got the guitar, and I'm
doing my homework.

Yes, yes. You're damn good, ain't you,
man?

Thanks, man. A real player's player.

Chili.

Ronnie.

How many kids your age even heard of
Lightning Hopkins, much less player's

stuff? Well, I'll tell you a little
secret.

My grandfather used to sit in with him
sometimes.

Your grandpa? Oh, yeah.

Joe Madman Dell.

The Madman?

Yeah. Your grandpa was righteous, man.

That explains a lot.

Like why you're not in school.

Screw school.

Yep, chip off the old.

Is that what you're going to tell that
cop?

What cop?

Oh, now you see the madman would have
got all up in that officer's face.

I'm still working on that part.

I'll catch you later. Don't be a
stranger. Yeah!

Hey, sit in with us next time.

Bring the madman, would you?

What's going on?

Why aren't you at school?

Why are you not at the office?

Now, what's going on in here?

Okay, kid.

Your father and I decided that maybe I
should make different living

arrangements.

Where are you going?

Oh, nice place.

What's it called again?

Silver Sunset.

Now, listen to me, Ronnie.

I want you to put that guitar away. I
want to see what you're taking, Joe.

it, Ronnie. Will you listen to me?

Maybe it'd be easier if we just... Take
him along.

Yeah, just take me along.

Wherever Joe's going, I'm going.

And I think if you talk to most of our
residents, oh heck, I'm going to go out

on a limb and say all of them.

You'll find that they're genuinely
happy.

Much happier than wherever they were
living before.

It does seem peaceful.

Maybe I ought to be the one checking in
instead of Joe.

So what's the place like this called
anyway?

Ronnie.

Sorry about that, Dr. Adler. Please,
it's all right.

I'd be shocked if Ronnie didn't feel a
little angry.

I can see how much he loves his grandpa.

Ronnie, let me ask you something.

What's the most important thing to you
where your grandfather's concerned?

I know, it's a complicated question.

But you don't want him to be happy,
right? Yeah.

And comfortable and well looked after?
Yeah, but we're doing that already. Oh,

know you are.

But the truth is we can do it better.

Because that's all we do here.

We look after people.

We take care of them.

And now this is hard what I'm going to
say to you.

But there's probably going to come a
time when your grandfather is going to

a lot of looking after.

And when that day comes, I want you to
know that we'll be there for you,

grandfather.

We absolutely will.

Well, everything is in order.

And you're going to call me if you need
anything, right?

Well, I'll call you if I don't need
anything, just to annoy your daddy.

Well, you know, I'm going to come visit
you all the time.

Just don't annoy my daddy.

Just give us a call before you visit.
That's one of our rules.

You see, it isn't just your grandpa's
home.

It's home for a lot of other people as
well.

Okay. Okay.

This guy sounds like a greeting card
commercial.

Hey, Ronnie.

Would you do me a favor? Why don't you
have a seat down here?

I just need to have a quick word with
your dad.

and then he'll be right with you, all
right?

Sure. Okay.

Hi. Hey.

Take your time.

Hi. You want to sit here?

Whatever. Cool.

Is that your grandfather you came with?

Yeah.

There's something strange about this
place.

What do you mean?

Hello?

Move it.

Yeah, that's it.

Hello?

What's that for?

To help make you leave.

to make you forget.

Why?

Why would I want to...

forget?

Locking.

Lock.

Here.

Stand by, everybody.

Exit.

Hey, tell Mom I'm gonna be home a little
late tonight. I'm gonna go visit Joe.

Maybe you should give Joe a little more
time to settle in. Hey, man, I've waited

a whole week already. I'm not gonna wait
anymore.

I just don't think it's a good idea,
that's all.

You know, man, you threw that man out
the house.

Wasn't that good enough for you, or
would you rather he feel lonely, too?

Ronnie.

I know you think that Joe is a great
guy.

But let me tell you something about him
that you don't know.

He wasn't half the father to me that I
am to you.

Then how come I wish he was my father?

This is Inga.

She's been trying to get into my pants.

What do you think? Should I give in?

Well, I don't know.

I don't know. Do you think you can
handle it? Handle her?

Can she handle me? That's what you
should be asking.

Funny. Come on now, Joe. Down the hatch.

Hey, wait a minute, wait a minute. What
is that?

Oh, it's blood pressure medication.

Does he need it?

They give out Viagra in here like candy.

Yeah, you want Viagra. That would be
scary.

I don't need no damn Viagra.

Sex is all in the mind.

And the lips.

Kissing.

That's where lovemaking begins.

When's the last time you tuned it?

What day is it?

Tuesday. Really?

It's Tuesday?

You lose track of time in this place.

Man, are you sure you're okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I'm pretty happy, actually.

Except for the weird dreams I keep
having.

I've been thinking about the sitting
here blues and, you know, the thong you

wrote for me.

Sure.

Check this out.

Well, I got no job.

Don't live or die.

There ain't a paycheck in this world.

Don't make me.

Well, maybe later then, right?

How's your grandfather?

Hey.

Um... He's, uh... He's fine.

How's your, uh... Grandmother.

Yeah.

Not so good.

She doesn't even know where she is
anymore.

Look, what did you mean the other day?
You know, when you said this place was

pretty strange.

Um... I don't know.

Yeah, but what I mean is, look, I've
been thinking about it.

And, like, this whole thing is just...
Let's talk

later, okay?

Okay, cool.

But he said he was happy. I know what he
said, but I don't think that's what he

means. You think Joe's not happy being
there?

I don't know.

Mom, I just know Joe is not being Joe.

It's a new home. It takes some time to
get settled in.

We have been in this house for ten
years. Your father still doesn't know

some things are, like the laundry hamper
and the dishwasher.

Hey, anybody home?

Ah, Ronnie, good you're here. Give me a
hand with some boxes, will you?

What is this stuff?

It's a computer.

What's it look like? Yeah, no joke, but
you know nothing about computers, Dad.

Who says?

Hank, you can't even work an electric
can opener.

We're not talking about can openers.
We're talking computers.

Ed? Just so happens I've been teaching
myself down at the office.

Hank, can we even afford this?

Can we afford not to have it?

Look, I want things to be better for us.

For all of us.

Oh, and you think buying a computer is
going to solve that?

I phoned your computer.

What are you dreaming?

You're dreaming again, Joe.

Is that what's happening?

You bet.

How is he?

Still with us.

Is that right?

Well, well, my friend Joe, you've built
up a little tolerance.

Yes, indeed. You've built up a little
resistance here, haven't you?

I know how to have a good time.

I bet you do.

What's up, Smith?

Now, I understand you used to be
something of a lady, man. Joe, is that

Still have.

Sanctuous. All in the mind.

And lips.

All right, Joe.

Chin forward.

Get your favorite hat here, buddy.

Good. Locking.

Come on, don't fight it, Joe. Make it
worse than it has to be. Come on, settle

down.

Activating needles four.

Ten. Eight.

All right. Stand by.

Activating.

Hey, hey.

Hey, I'm glad you made it. Yeah, when
you said he played guitar, I thought you

meant like one of those guys who thinks
he can play guitar.

Hey, stop that right there, man. His
head is swollen enough as it is. Hey,

a minute, wait a minute. If the lady
wants to say nice things about her

she can say nice things. You were great,
too.

Um, I'm Tara.

Jilly. Yes, Jilly.

His head, that's full.

Don't give him any kind of... Are you
okay?

Um, no, it's just my grandmother.

They called this morning. I don't know
how much longer she's going to hang on.

Hey, Shirley.

Oh, man, thanks, man.

Five minutes? Yeah. Okay. Come on. Let's
talk.

Was she locked with that Quentin?

It's almost like we checked her in one
day and she began to fade the next.

You're pretty close to her, though.

She practically raised me after my
mother died.

You know, my grandmother wasn't sick a
day in her life except for maybe a

high blood pressure.

What?

They said my grandfather had.

And when she began to fade, they told me
that she has Alzheimer's. Yeah, but

they just can't give somebody
Alzheimer's.

Can they?

Johnny?

And perfectly happy just sitting here
blue.

Man, I just want to laugh at it. Johnny,
what's wrong?

I got a whole life to be busy. Just wait
ahead of me.

That song.

What do you mean, where did I hear it?

I didn't hear it anywhere.

I made it up. Man, don't play me, man.
My grandfather wrote that song.

No, no, your grandfather.

Yes, he did.

Now tell me how you hurt.

Yeah, because you definitely play just
like the madman. It's just how I play,

that's all. Oh, that's garbage.

Something unnatural about you, man. Hey,
you know what? I just want to practice

a little.

I didn't mean to upset anybody.

Hey, you wait for that.

Come here, man.

Let him go.

Let him go. You're chilling?

Spend some time with her.

As long as you'd like.

Okay.

Hey.

I'm sorry.

They killed her.

I don't know how, but they did.

I'm here to see my grandfather, man.
You're going to think you can undercut

right? Hey, Ted, just drop in on people
here. Hey, little man, I just want to

see my grandfather.

Hey, Ted! Joe! Joe!

Excuse me?

This is my grandfather's room.

Who the hell it is?

This is my father's room.

You see, Ronnie, that's why we have this
rule.

So things like this don't happen. Man,
screw your rules, man!

Where the hell is my grandfather? And I
want to know right now!

First, you're going to have to calm
down. Man, I'll calm down when I see

I think you should calm down before.

You see, Ronnie, your grandfather's
condition has changed.

That's why we moved him.

What do you mean, changed?

Oh, I'm sorry. I told your father. I
guess he didn't want to upset you.

And what's wrong with Joe?

Joe's an old man, Ronnie.

That's what's wrong with him.

Hey, man, man.

Hey.

Hey, buddy. What's happening?

Oh, man, what did they do to you?

Nothing.

Nothing.

It doesn't look that way.

Look, Joe, I told you about something.

Do you remember that song you wrote for
me?

Sitting here blues?

Did you play for anyone else?

I'm sorry, yeah.

It's just not there anymore.

Just not there.

And I know you hate this guy, but come
on, he's your father.

Dad, they're hurting him. I'll look into
it, Ronnie, okay?

I won't let them hurt Joe.

Dad, are you okay?

Better than okay.

Much better.

I quit my job today.

You what?

I know.

Seems impulsive, especially for me.

But my whole life, I always wanted to be
in business for myself.

And finally, I found a way to do it.

Look, up until now, everything I was,
everything I did...

I did because I didn't want to be like
Joe.

But for all of Joe's faults, there's
something about him I've come to

appreciate.

He did what he wanted to do with his
life.

And he was happy.

Why are you telling me this?

Sorry.

We may not always want what our parents
have to offer us.

But that doesn't mean that we can't be
the things that we want to be.

From now on, you and me, we start all
over again.

I love you, Ronnie.

That's all that matters.

What do you mean your dad is different?

I mean, one minute this man is like Mr.
Negative in the next year.

I don't know.

I don't know who he is.

Well, maybe he's just been, like, having
your grandfather around, and now that

he's not there... No, no, no, no.

Tara, look, it's more than that.

Look, he's changed somehow.

I don't know how, but he's a completely
different person.

You don't know how lucky you are,
Ronnie.

Your father and I want you to have all
the options available to you. Options he

never had, or thought he never had,
until now.

Is he acting different?

Yeah, okay, he's acting different.

But more importantly, he's thinking
different.

He has stopped denying himself.

And that is a good thing for all of us.

Okay, I agree with you there. But why
now?

I mean, don't you think this is very
strange?

What's strange?

Life. Life?

Strange? No, no, no, no.

Life, my dear, is great.

Do you want me to make you some
breakfast?

No, thanks, baby. I already had it.

God, you look beautiful.

Now, is that a new outfit?

No. Well, girl, you make it look brand
new. Come here.

Hank.

Hey, you're my woman now.

And I can do this whenever I want.

When did you suddenly start kissing like
that? That mouth of yours is dangerous.

Girl, didn't you know?

Kissing is where lovemaking begins.

Stupid guy.

Yeah.

Now, Hank, I just want you to relax.

You're going to feel a strong but not
altogether unpleasant sensation.

You should know the procedure by now,
Hank.

Ready? Ready.

Activate, please.

You there at school?

What were you doing at the Sullivan
Center today?

How'd you know I was there?

Because I saw you.

Now, you want to tell me what's going
on, Dad?

Now, where'd you get the money to quit
your job?

Where'd you get the money to buy all
this stuff?

What's really happening to you?

What's really happening to Joe?

I don't know what you mean.

Are you going to lie to me?

You're going to lie right to my room.

Is it that bad, Dad?

Are you ashamed of something?

Tell me.

I can't tell you.

I made a deal.

That's cool, man.

You know, because I'm just going to talk
to Dr. Adler. You know, maybe he'll

tell me something I want to know. Honey!

Honey!

Close the door.

There's something about you I just don't
like. See, you're one of those guys who

just can't help but cause trouble. And
you know, that's an interesting quality.

But I can't do anything with it.

I certainly can't sell it, if you know
what I mean.

Please.

Let me go.

Oh, no can do, Joe.

Sense memory. Right rear quadrant.

Uh,

the bad news, Joe.

Bad news?

You're just about to take a turn for the
worse, my friend.

So you're butchering other people's
minds just so you can make yourself

man? Ronnie, you got it all wrong.

The man that I got my technical skills
from.

The woman that I got my business acumen
from. They're both old.

It used to be when a person died,
everything that they were died with

it doesn't have to be that way anymore.

There isn't a skill in the world that
can't be implanted in... They are

people to do it!

I'm in the killing zone right now!

They're not killing him, Ronnie. Believe
me.

He's feeling no pain.

They are killing who he is.

And you don't even care.

Joe's an old man.

You want to hold on to him. You want to
keep him around forever, don't you?

Well, here's how.

I have part of him here, inside me.

I need you.

Roddy.

Everything that I've done to make things
better between us.

for coming, Chili.

I gotta tell you, man, I do not feel
good about... I know you don't.

Look, I promise no one's gonna get hurt,
man. You need some help to get in the

door, that's it.

Look, what if... No!

Look, man, I don't wanna go to prison
and I don't want anyone to die.

But this is the only way I know how,
man. I gotta get Joe out of there.

All right.

Let me come with you. No.

Look, I gotta do this myself, all right?
I don't want anyone else involved.

Chili, please, man.

It's for the madman.

For the madman.

Yeah.

I'm scared, Ronnie.

I know.

But that's why your grandmother seemed
to disappear.

It's what they're doing to Joe now, and
if I don't stop them, there's going to

be nothing left.

Okay, I, um... Why don't you meet me
right over there?

Okay?

Yeah.

All right.

Ronnie!

What's he doing here?

Don't do anything foolish, kid. Nobody
needs to get hurt here.

Well, that's about my grandfather.

Move!

Grandfather's over here, kid.

Oh, my God.

Which one is this?

Stop.

Open this door now.

Get him out of here!

Turn off the spray.

Let's get him down.

Let's go.

What now, kid?

Now you're going to get in.

Ladies.

What's happening?

I'm getting you out of here, Joe.

Don't worry.

Get out of my way, Dad.

Don't make a bad situation worse,
Ronnie.

Now, I know you're an angry young man,
but I really don't think you want to

anyone. Oh, I'm not afraid to kill you.

Ronnie, you think this is what Joe would
want?

For you to spend the rest of your life
in prison? Then what the hell do you

what Joe would want?

I'm sorry, Hank, but I think I'm going
to have to deal with this my way. Now

wait.

Give me a few minutes with him.

Alone.

I'll do what has to be done.

The meter's running.

I'll be in my office.

Give me the gun, Ronnie.

Why?

So you can do what has to be done?

Huh?

That's right.

You've got to trust me.

I know there's nothing I can do to
change what's already happened.

But it doesn't mean that I can't change
what will happen.

I can be the father you need me to be.
Let me give you that, man.

Don't lie to me!

Give me the gun, Ronnie.

Get your grandfather out to your
friend's car.

Now take him home.

Take him home.

Where's the boy?

You're about to lose your love of
science, Doctor.

Put it down!

Ronnie couldn't kill you if his life
depended on it.

I do not have that problem.

Come on, now, this is a waste of time,
Hank.

That extractor is a very complicated
piece of equipment.

It's a computer.

You'll be amazed how knowledgeable I've
become about them.

Hank, now, wait a minute. Look, you're
never going to get away with this.

And you won't remember that I did.

Hi. Now, hold it right there.

Now, you're thinking too hard. Just let
it happen.

Why do I feel like I've heard that
before?

Because I got a whole catalog of stuff
you used to say to me. And I believe I'm

going to hear every bit of it again,
aren't I? Mm -hmm.

Serves me right. It sure does.

Now, come on, Madman. You start.

Let's go back to the top.

The greatest lesson one generation can
bestow upon the next is that reverence

for the past ensures the future.

The madman is back in the house.

You got that right.
