[phone ringing] hi. you've reached meryl morgan. i can't take your call right now, so leave a message and have a great day. thanks. [answering machine beeps] [man] hello. it is me, your husband. um, at least, legally still your husband, as recognized by the state of new york. and, in the end, who are we to argue with the governor?
i wanted to call and just say hello, as it is approaching the three-month anniversary of our being separated, and i thought, perhaps it might be nice to get together, as, you know, occasions like this only come around once in a lifetime. and, uh... oh, yes! and i saw the cover of new york magazine's real estate issue, and there you were. and you looked lovely, frankly.
you are staring out from every newsstand and bus and taxi. and it is... "it is genuinely incredible how you have built your business "into the premier boutique real estate firm in the city." i'm quoting here from the article. i have five copies. this way, if we ever get back together and lose yours, we're covered. [paul] anyway, the point is that i am sad, and i miss you,
and i bitterly regret what i did, and it would be very, very nice if you called or, in fact, if we could see each other. i hope you're getting the gifts. i know they're not all perfect. the ice sculpture, i concede, was a disaster. i did specify that they shouldn't leave it if you weren't home, and i will be suing. talking of which, i must get back to work.
i'm actually in court. i have a man... [meryl] isn't thisa beautiful view? you could payfor this whole apartment just by charging peopleto come and look at this. and if you like this,you're going to love this, what i call the ballroomor the grand salon. it's the perfect combinationof classic architecture and understated elegance. [whispering]
[both arguing in french] [gasps]you're pregnant? i mean, if you're planningon having a baby, this is the mostmagical place. how many childrendo you have? how many? oh...let me see, i have... [in french accent]well, i have zero. my husband and iare separated. i know what you're thinking,the clock is ticking, right?
[speaks french] but i'm, you know...i'm considering adoption, and you gotta stay optimistic.you know? don't get downon yourself. [adam] mr. morgan,i have the depositions onthe anderson case for you. [paul] excellent.i hear it's a page-turner. now, where are weon the star front? well, you can buyand name a star "meryl." it's $75, and you get acelestial map and a certificate.
well, i was reallylooking for somethingmore impressive. can i buya constellation? i don't know.you can buya black hole. i'm not sure a black holesends exactlythe right message at this pointin our relationship. somewhat redundant. [applause] [meryl] thank you. and thank youto everyone

i recommend you bothenter the witnessrelocation program. - what?- what? - hang on. hang on.- wait, wait, wait.wait, wait.

there's a jet? so, it's out of the city? here's what i think we shoulddo. let's just stay logical and examine all the parameters,if that's possible. i can't leave. i can't leave.i have a company to run. well, we've both gotcompanies to run, - so that's important...- right, right.who runs my business? all i'm saying is,i think there areother things which should... - [stammering] and what about...- for instance...
...all of our friendsand our family? what, we just upand disappear? i mean, we'd leave?that's crazy. that's nuts.is that whatyou're suggesting? we don't know what he'ssuggesting because you haven'tstopped talking yet, so... - well...- excuse me. this isn't the first timewe've done this. we'll get a listof people to contact. but first,we've got to get youto a safe location.
and what happensif you neverfind this man? we'll find him.in the meantime, we put youin a temporary spot until we can finda more permanent site. what do you meanby "permanent"? i don't mean permanent.i mean official site. yeah, but you said permanent. so if you don'tcatch this guy, then the official sitebecomes the permanent site?
right, so why don'twe just let himexplain that bit. [stammering] oh, no. no, no,i'm sorry. i'm sorry.i can't do this. really, i can't.i'm, you know... i'm a new yorker.you know, i was born here.this is my home. i've had bagelsin other parts of the country. i don't evenlike connecticut. this man isa professional killer. he found you in one night,and he'll keep coming back. wouldn't you ratherlive someplace elsethan die in new york?
meryl? i'm thinking. there's nothingto think about. if you want to live,you're out of options. i'm sorry, i don't meanto drag our personalproblems into this, but at this exact moment, i can't commit to spendingthe rest of my lifewith my husband. i know exactlyhow you feel. this is justa temporary location.
you'll be therea week at most. we'll look into arrangingseparate sites afterwards, but first, we've got toget you out of the city. mmm-mmm. you... i don't... you won't tell mewhere i'm going, so i don't knowhow to dress. this, 'causeit's pretty? now that we're on the jet,can you tell uswhere we're going?

[clay] yeah.about 10 years ago, the government asked if we'dhide somebody for a week. ever since then,a couple of times a year,they bring somebody by. been kind ofinteresting, actually. now they want meto retire. so, you two aregonna be our last.
well, it's an honorand it's a lovely witness room, but, um, mr. morgan... mr. foster and iare separated. we are thinking ofseeing a therapist, yeah. so how do you want to handlethe sleeping arrangements,then? um, well, i cansleep on a couch. no, no, no, no,i'll sleep on the couch. no, no, 'cause i'm a lousysleeper anyway. really. i'd be fine on a couch.and do you have cable?
we got an antenna.got a bunch of dvds. john wayne and clint eastwood,mostly. that's great.that's great. oh, but i seeyou have a computer. so that means thatyou have internet?you're online? we do, but you wouldneed a code. which you're notgonna give me. no. trying to contactsomebody back home'sjust too big a risk. and i guess the samegoes for the phone?
'cause i just havea couple of thingsi have to check on. yes, if i could makeone quick call,it would be... yeah, and you know,you could supervise the calls. there's no dial tone. there's a code. so i guessthat is about it. there's towels and soapin the bath. great. terrific.is there a code?

no. no, you don't. that is the great thingabout being a doctorin a small town. you see it all. anyway, physiologicallyit's all the same. the body is the body. so, let's see if we can'ttake care of that boo-boo in your eye, mr. foster. you see, just calling ita boo-boo makes mefeel better already. let's go next doorto the exam room.
say, would you liketo come along,mrs. foster? - [clattering]- oh, no, i'm fine.i'll wait here. let me help you there,mr. foster. - say, do you like stickers?- [paul sighs] here, let's takea little visitto the giraffe room. [meryl sighs] you've reached trish pinger at the gotham adoption agency. - please leave a message. - [answering machine beeps] [softly] oh! um... hi, trish.this is meryl foster...
i'm sorry, meryl morgan calling.i just... i was just calling to thank you so much for everything that you've done for me, but i'm now sort of in the middle of something. i might be relocating, i might be in new york, i might be god knows where. um... i bet i sound reallystable right now, right? probably can't believeyou were gonna help meadopt a baby. [siren wailing, gunshots on tv]
- very soothing before bed.- hmm. ok. good night. paul? i called the gothamadoption agency. i filed for adoptiontwo months ago. you did? so i wanted to tell themthat i couldn't gothrough with it now. [tires screeching on tv] [tv turns off]
two months ago? must've beena big decision for you. well, i really thoughtabout telling you, but i didn't really knowwhere we were at. [stammering] and to be honest,you know, from the timethat we started havingtrouble getting pregnant, you weren'texactly supportive. i find it almost impossibleto believe you say that, because betweenthe fertility doctorsand the injections
and the womanwho chanted over my sperm... oh, man, come on.i have apologized forthat so many times. ...that i waspretty supportive. was i enjoying having sexon a schedule timed exactlyto your ovulations? maybe not as muchas i should've done, and i'm very sorry about that. or talking about reproducingevery second of every day. it wasn't every secondof every day.
i just wantedto be a mother. yes, and i wantedto be a father. i was the onewho suggested adoptionin the first place. then why did we never meetwith an adoption agency? because, by that time,you had become so wiredand so crazed that they would not havelet us raise a goldfish,let alone a baby. you know i was wiredfrom the hormone shots, and i am notnormally that crazy. and instead of youstaying homeand dealing with it,
you flew off to laon a business meeting,and then you... - oh, right.- i know! i know.i know what i did. i slept with someone else,and i'm sorry. i'm sorry. i'm sorry.i'm sorry. i'm sorry. i don't know how many timesi'm supposed to say it. i think you are beingcompletely irrational. these two are worsethan vito the butcher. [paul] i'd really preferit if you'd not tell mewhat i think. - it's quite annoying.- i kind of like them.
- [meryl] don't lawyer me.- [paul] fine! i wish there wassome way we could help them. yeah. muzzles. [paul] i think you arebeing unreasonable. [meryl] well,you're wrong. [paul] is that helpful? is that constructive?is that mature? [meryl] it's mature.i don't knowif it's "mature." [paul] oh, that is mature,yes. mock my accent.mock my heritage.

[emma] ok,we're gonnado it like this. line it up throughthe sights to the can. now, when that gun goes off,it's gonna kick back - into your shoulder, ok?- ok. yeah. don't put your fingeron the trigger tillyou're ready to shoot. this is nothing.you should see how longit takes her to order dinner. whoa!there you go.

[paul] i think i've reallydone some damage. - meryl, i thinki have a welt.- [meryl] what? quite a big welt. look at that.do you see that? yes, it's quite big. purple. ugly.like a little map of ireland. yeah, real easyto hurt your shouldershooting a rifle.
i didn't. could you just wait outside?play with a toy? thank you. you ever shootbefore, meryl? nope. never helda gun beforein my life. although i could'veused one during sometense negotiations at work. i'm a real estatebroker. - you kidding?- no. my mom is getting onand she's moving inwith me. i can't get any biteson her house.
oh. well, it's lovely. but, you know,when the market'slike this, you really needto focus moreon presentation. - i mean, just, you know, justoff of the top of my head...- [clears throat] ...i think maybe the chairthat's sitting onthe front lawn, it looks very,very comfortable, but have you ever consideredmoving it inside the house? no. well, just thinkabout it. it's...
- i will.- ok. would you mindcoming out and takinga look at the place? oh. not at all. can you spare her, paul? yeah, absolutely.yes, i'm used tobeing separated. the shoulder,i mean. shoulder. [laughs]that's not separated. it's a tiny little bruise.wouldn't hurt a schoolgirl. [groans]

well, um, he bought me a remington .270with a night scopeand "emma" engraved on it. and he gave me some cows.i love cows. brilliant.brilliant. i wish i had thoughtof the cows thing.that's good. yeah, there was this one time,we were really butting heads. something abouthis brother. it's not important. but, anyway, it got to wherewe weren't even hardly talking,
and he asked meout on a date. a date? yeah. just like two kidsin high school. he asked me out,we went out to dinner, we talked andit worked like magic. very interesting. well, speaking of work, i think we're probablypretty much done here, so...
...i'll talk to you later. [meryl] thanks for coming.just whilewe're standing here, i just want to point outa few things. this whole railingis brand-new, and, actually,doc built it himself. fresh coat of paint. so i don't knowif you guys wanna go inside, kind of get a lay of the land. - [girl] i'm staying with you.- you're staying with me?

most people in rayhave two jobs.some have three. i'm alsoassistant fire chief. oh, really? [softly] then could youask the gentleman behind us to please put outhis cigarette? [softly] um, yeah,i can't do that. that's earl.he owns the place. well, why's itcalled annette's? um, annette washis wife.

[chuckles]chicago? i don't know howyou do things in chicago,i never been there, but this is god-fearingamerican country. we don't take kindlyto outsiders tryingto tell us how to live. well, people in chicagoare just as american and god-fearingas people in wyoming. i mean, not me,specifically.i'm an agnostic. next thingyou'll be telling usyou're democrats. [laughs] well, i mean,there's gotta bea few of us in town.

i mean, you meetlots of women. you're always at lunchesand meetings, so, why her? i mean, was it justthat she was pretty? who said she was pretty?she was quite hideous,actually. a leper, really.i mean, if the elephant manhad a sister, she... - i googled her.- oh. yeah, i just looked under"loose legal ladies." she's pretty. so, what's she like?
she's reserved.i don't know,a bit cynical. you know. yeah, no, i can see that.that makes sense. it was probably like,you know, going to a spa,you know, very quiet and cool and laid back, and nobody nagging youor asking you questions like some crazy,neurotic woodpecker who won't let goof an issue until it's beenpecked to death. i know. [stammering]it was nothing.it was nothing.
it was really nothing.it was... you know, i was stupid.i'd had a few drinks. i was upset about us. and it just happened,and i did not enjoy it. i was feeling guiltythe whole time, and her perfume smelleda bit like a burrito. and you are, easily, the sexiest,most exciting woman i have ever been withor ever wish to be with.
