my neighbors had chimpanzees.
174
00:09:57,303 --> 00:09:58,838
Why am I not surprised?
175
00:09:58,838 --> 00:10:01,207
It was a very nice
neighborhood in Passaic.
176
00:10:01,207 --> 00:10:02,845
There is no such thing.
177
00:10:04,045 --> 00:10:05,244
Sweetheart,
178
00:10:05,244 --> 00:10:08,647
I am so, so sorry, but... Well,
179
00:10:08,647 --> 00:10:10,449
- I have rehearsal this morning.
- Yeah, yeah.
180
00:10:10,449 --> 00:10:11,683
Yeah, yeah, well, another time.
181
00:10:11,683 --> 00:10:14,790
- And you have your...
- Dog biographies.
182
00:10:16,257 --> 00:10:17,522
(PHONE RINGS)
183
00:10:17,522 --> 00:10:19,058
- MARGARET: So, Mom?
- LILLIAN: Huh?
184
00:10:19,058 --> 00:10:20,827
- Before I go, I took Finn...
- (PHONE RINGING)
185
00:10:20,827 --> 00:10:23,162
...to the orthodontist
this week.
186
00:10:23,162 --> 00:10:25,664
- I didn't even want him to go.
- Edith! Phone!
187
00:10:25,664 --> 00:10:27,800
Kept telling him about
all the brilliant writers
188
00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:28,968
with crooked teeth.
189
00:10:28,968 --> 00:10:30,935
Lillian Hall's residence.
Yes, how are you?
190
00:10:30,935 --> 00:10:32,705
Anyway, according
to this orthodontist,
he has, uh...
191
00:10:32,705 --> 00:10:34,807
Well, you're in luck.
She's just, uh...
192
00:10:34,807 --> 00:10:36,108
She's just finishing up
a meeting.
193
00:10:36,108 --> 00:10:37,677
- And, uh...
- ...malocclusion problem.
194
00:10:37,677 --> 00:10:39,378
EDITH: Sorry about the emails.
195
00:10:39,378 --> 00:10:42,014
- Oh, that doesn't sound good.
- EDITH: Our internet
was down for a while.
196
00:10:42,014 --> 00:10:44,783
- EDITH: Is that...
- Uh, Edith, who is it?
197
00:10:44,783 --> 00:10:47,419
The problem is that between
the extractions and the braces,
198
00:10:47,419 --> 00:10:49,021
it's gonna cost
like eight grand.
199
00:10:49,021 --> 00:10:51,358
- EDITH: Alright, hold on, honey.
- Whoa, wow. Huh.
200
00:10:51,358 --> 00:10:53,192
EDITH: It's Bill Long.
201
00:10:53,192 --> 00:10:54,360
LILLIAN: Bill?
202
00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,596
American Theatre Wing?
Lifetime Achievement Award?
203
00:10:57,596 --> 00:10:59,899
- LILLIAN: Oh.
- Oh, oh my God, Mom! Really?
204
00:10:59,899 --> 00:11:01,968
How old do they think I am?
205
00:11:01,968 --> 00:11:03,169
By now, 104.
206
00:11:03,169 --> 00:11:06,038
Just tell him
I... I... I can't talk now.
207
00:11:06,038 --> 00:11:07,906
- EDITH: No, Lillian. Lillian.
- That we are in rehearsal.
208
00:11:07,906 --> 00:11:10,977
- And I've got, I'm doing a play.
- EDITH: You tell him.
I've told him multiple times.
209
00:11:10,977 --> 00:11:12,278
- LILLIAN: No, come on!
- EDITH: Lillian.
210
00:11:12,278 --> 00:11:13,813
You're acting like a child.
211
00:11:13,813 --> 00:11:15,248
- I don't care.
- Argh!
212
00:11:15,248 --> 00:11:17,250
She's finished with the meeting.
Bill, you have perfect timing.
213
00:11:17,250 --> 00:11:19,722
Oh, she's dying to talk to you.
Here she is.
214
00:11:21,890 --> 00:11:24,690
LILLIAN: Bill. Oh, darling.
215
00:11:24,690 --> 00:11:28,627
What a wonderful treat
to hear from you today.
216
00:11:28,627 --> 00:11:34,166
Oh, I would be honored.
I would be so honored.
217
00:11:34,166 --> 00:11:36,736
But listen, dear,
we're in rehearsal.
218
00:11:36,736 --> 00:11:38,971
Previews start next week.
219
00:11:38,971 --> 00:11:42,642
I mean, is there any possibility
220
00:11:42,642 --> 00:11:45,911
that perhaps
this could wait until...
221
00:11:45,911 --> 00:11:48,147
Well, until after we open?
222
00:11:48,147 --> 00:11:49,982
Why can't she
just accept it now?
223
00:11:49,982 --> 00:11:52,752
Oh, it's an actress thing.
Don't even try.
224
00:11:52,752 --> 00:11:54,921
LILLIAN: I knew
you would understand.
225
00:11:54,921 --> 00:11:56,459
Oh, Bill, wait, wait.
226
00:11:57,458 --> 00:11:59,058
Will I see you opening night?
227
00:11:59,058 --> 00:12:00,930
- (SCOFFS)
- (LILLIAN GIGGLES)
228
00:12:01,329 --> 00:12:03,863
Okay! (LAUGHS)
229
00:12:03,863 --> 00:12:07,900
Yes. And the same to you.
Bye now.
230
00:12:07,900 --> 00:12:10,773
- And the Oscar goes to...
- Oh, shut up.
231
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:12,371
Oh, honey,
232
00:12:12,371 --> 00:12:15,341
I'm sorry we got interrupted.
What was it you were saying?
233
00:12:15,341 --> 00:12:17,509
- MARGARET: About the braces.
- LILLIAN: Yes, yes, yes.
234
00:12:17,509 --> 00:12:18,877
Well, George has
a new commission.
235
00:12:18,877 --> 00:12:21,748
He's doing a... restoration
on a brownstone in Brooklyn.
236
00:12:21,748 --> 00:12:22,982
But until that gets started...
237
00:12:22,982 --> 00:12:25,179
Lillian, It's time to get
your bony ass in gear.
238
00:12:25,179 --> 00:12:26,889
Well, isn't he painting?
239
00:12:27,422 --> 00:12:28,921
Well, yeah, yeah, yeah.
240
00:12:28,921 --> 00:12:32,124
He's doing some
really fantastic watercolors,
241
00:12:32,124 --> 00:12:33,725
but he's between jobs,
you know.
242
00:12:33,725 --> 00:12:35,528
- LILLIAN: Uh-huh.
- And he still hasn't been paid
for the last one.
243
00:12:35,528 --> 00:12:36,362
- So...
- Oh.
244
00:12:36,362 --> 00:12:38,731
Lillian.
You're leaving in 20 minutes.
245
00:12:38,731 --> 00:12:40,399
Twenty minutes?
246
00:12:40,399 --> 00:12:42,034
Oh my God, I'm not dressed.
247
00:12:42,034 --> 00:12:45,204
I haven't combed my hair.
I haven't even brushed my teeth.
248
00:12:45,204 --> 00:12:46,972
Listen, sweetheart.
249
00:12:46,972 --> 00:12:50,443
We will talk
about this very soon.
250
00:12:50,443 --> 00:12:51,777
- Okay? All right.
- Okay, yeah.
251
00:12:51,777 --> 00:12:54,483
Yeah, yeah.
Whoa! I gotta go too.
252
00:12:56,617 --> 00:12:58,551
- So, okay.
- LILLIAN: Dogs and chickens.
253
00:12:58,551 --> 00:13:00,990
- Chickens and dogs.
- Bye.
254
00:13:01,623 --> 00:13:03,092
Bye, Edith.
255
00:13:03,758 --> 00:13:05,494
Goodbye, Margaret.
256
00:13:06,227 --> 00:13:07,263
Bye, Mom.
257
00:13:12,261 --> 00:13:13,333
(BREATHES DEEPLY)
258
00:13:13,333 --> 00:13:14,470
Okay.
259
00:13:17,105 --> 00:13:21,974
Eight thousand dollars?
What do I look like, a bank?
260
00:13:21,974 --> 00:13:23,879
On a good day, yeah.
261
00:13:24,478 --> 00:13:26,845
(SCOFFS) Dog biographies.
262
00:13:26,845 --> 00:13:30,553
EDITH: I think autobiographies
would be a lot more fun.
263
00:13:31,586 --> 00:13:33,619
Hey, I'll do it.

I don't know, Edith.
273
00:13:54,040 --> 00:13:57,309
Do you think actors
should have children?
274
00:13:57,309 --> 00:13:59,445
You want an argument
or an answer?
275
00:13:59,445 --> 00:14:00,547
LILLIAN: An answer.
276
00:14:00,547 --> 00:14:01,617
No.
277
00:14:02,451 --> 00:14:03,850
Why not?
278
00:14:03,850 --> 00:14:05,885
- Now you want an argument.
- LILLIAN: Come on.
279
00:14:05,885 --> 00:14:08,455
There are a lot of actors
who are also parents.
280
00:14:08,455 --> 00:14:10,623
That's known as an oxymoron.
281
00:14:10,623 --> 00:14:12,124
Speaking of,
it wouldn't kill you
282
00:14:12,124 --> 00:14:14,154
to pay for your
grandkid's braces.
283
00:14:14,154 --> 00:14:15,227

- Okay.
- Just don't go anywhere.

Hmm.

Weird.
298
00:14:52,066 --> 00:14:54,200
I was born here.
299
00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,769
My father
and my mother lived here.
300
00:14:56,769 --> 00:15:00,539
My grandfather too.
I love this house.
301
00:15:00,539 --> 00:15:03,910
I can't imagine my life
without the cherry orchard.
302

So if it must be sold,
then sell me along with it.

I sympathize with you.

ought to say it differently.

And it's so noisy here.

- What?
-"I'm afraid of the silence."

Because I'm afraid
of the silence.

Don't judge me
too harshly, Peter.
317
00:15:57,666 --> 00:15:59,402

to my own family."

I've loved you as if
you belonged to my own family.

No, I can't sit still.
I'm not in a state to do it.
322
00:16:12,879 --> 00:16:14,581
Now let me try to remember.
323
00:16:14,581 --> 00:16:16,382
- Red to the corner.
- Wait.
324
00:16:16,382 --> 00:16:20,119
- Twi... twice to the center.
- That's act one.
325
00:16:20,119 --> 00:16:21,887
- LILLIAN: What?
-"Red into the corner."
326
00:16:21,887 --> 00:16:23,226
That's from act one.
327
00:16:27,663 --> 00:16:29,061
Yes.
328
00:16:29,061 --> 00:16:31,234
Of course it's act one,
I know that.
329
00:16:32,133 --> 00:16:35,404
But that's what's on
her mind right now.
330
00:16:36,370 --> 00:16:39,138
You know, it's called,
uh, subtext.
331
00:16:39,138 --> 00:16:41,340
Anybody here
ever heard of subtext, huh?
332
00:16:41,340 --> 00:16:42,942
- Okay, here we go.
- LILLIAN: All right.
333
00:16:42,942 --> 00:16:46,179
What about emotional recall
or sense memory?
334
00:16:46,179 --> 00:16:49,581
Does the name Stanislavski
mean anything to anyone?
335
00:16:49,581 --> 00:16:52,284
I mean, we are doing Chekhov,
aren't we?
336
00:16:52,284 --> 00:16:55,254
Or is this just a sitcom
where we hit our marks,
337
00:16:55,254 --> 00:16:58,424
say our lines, maybe we can add
a laugh track to it?

- (SHOUTS) What?

- DAVID: Lillian.
- What? What?

- ♪ (MUSIC FADES) ♪
- We're okay.
341

...foolish of me. I got dizzy.
1393
01:14:49,763 --> 01:14:51,063
She was sitting on a swing.
1394
01:14:51,063 --> 01:14:53,298
She didn't have far to go.
You know, just boom,
1395

- And that was it.

Well, she fell as a result
of a neurological condition.

- It's typical.
- Typical of what?

I'm sorry, what did you say?
1412
01:15:42,448 --> 01:15:44,853
I guess she didn't
want anyone to know
1413
01:15:45,420 --> 01:15:46,553
because of the play.

1415
01:15:49,057 --> 01:15:50,657
Of course it's the play
she's worried about.

regarding her health care.
1423

- Because I asked her.
- MARGARET: Oh.
1434
01:16:49,484 --> 01:16:52,485
Yeah, so let me get this right.
You chose an employee over me
1435
01:16:52,485 --> 01:16:53,719
to take care of you?
1436
01:16:53,719 --> 01:16:56,222
Why did you even call to tell me
that you were in the hospital?
1437
01:16:56,222 --> 01:16:57,990
No, you didn't.
You didn't. You never would.
1438
01:16:57,990 --> 01:16:59,959
She did that for you,
just like she does everything.
1439
01:16:59,959 --> 01:17:01,260
Maybe now is not the best time.
1440
01:17:01,260 --> 01:17:03,332
Now is absolutely the time.
1441
01:17:05,332 --> 01:17:08,400
So, this is what your visit
to see us was really all about?
1442
01:17:08,400 --> 01:17:11,338
What were you doing?
Auditioning me?

01:17:11,338 --> 01:17:12,571
No.

could have been like with us?

- I don't like it either,
1449
01:17:21,713 --> 01:17:23,482
- but your mother's lying
in a hospital bed right now.
- That's fine. No, it's fine.
1450
01:17:23,482 --> 01:17:25,017

the chance...

to have some time
together before...
