Seven Pounds

Okay

911 emergency.

I need an ambulance.

I have you at 9212 West Third Street in Los Angeles.

Yes, room number 2.

What's the emergency?

There's been a suicide.

Who's the victim?

I am.

In seven days, God created the world.

And in seven seconds..

I shattered mine.

- I can have four new fillets overnight. - Oh, no. No, thank you.

What is your name again? Ezra? Is that right?

Yes, sir. I'll just need your first and last name...

- so I can call up your account. - You know what?

Here's what I'm thinking, Ezra. I think I'm gonna mail you the meat back...

so you can see firsthand the type of dog food that you're peddling.

That won't be necessary, sir.

So how about we just start with your last name?

Thomas.

And don't even get me started on the pork.

- Have you tried the pork? - Well, no, sir.

I'm not much of a meat eater myself, but I hear really great things...

about the pork.

- Oh, so you don't eat pork at all? - No, sir.

Are you Jewish? Is that why you don't eat pork, Ezra?

Well, can we...? What's your first name, Mr. Thomas?

Ben.

Hold on, what was that voice?

I don't... I don't have an order for a Ben Thomas.

Ezra, what was that voice?

- What voice? - Are you blind?

- Excuse me? - You're kidding me.

A blind beef salesman who doesn't eat meat.

Now, that... That is rich That is rich.

Have you ever had sex, Ezra?

Did Lawrence in Accounting put you up to this?

Because somehow I can't imagine the blind, vegan...

beef salesman having sex.

- Listen, I'm trying to help you, sir. - You're trying to help me?

The blind beef salesman is trying to help me?

I'm actually starting to feel pretty bad for you, Ezra.

Because I look at my life, and it is surrounded by so much beauty...

and you can't see shit.

Is that fair?

Does that seem fair to you, Ezra?

Do you even know what colour the ocean is?

Do you?

- It's blue, sir. - "It's blue, sir."

Say what you wanna say.

React. Say what you wanna say to me.

Thank you for calling Cheyenne Meats.

That's not what you wanna say, you coward. You coward.

You blind, vegan, beef-salesman, virgin coward!

- Goodbye, Mr. Thomas. - Say what you wanna say.

Ken Anderson. Nicole Anderson. Allie Anderson. Ed Rice.

Steven Phillips. Monica Freeman. Sarah Jensen.

Ken Anderson! Nicole Anderson! Allie Anderson! Ed Rice!

Steven Phillips! Monica Freeman! And Sarah Jensen!

Hi, can I help you?

Yes. Hello, I'm looking for Emily.

- You're a friend of hers? - Yes, ma'am.

- She's not home. - Oh, goodness.

No, she left this morning. She had to do some more tests.

She asked me to watch Duke until she got back.

Okay.

You ever try mixing banana peel into the soil?

- Really? - It works, I swear.

Oh, would you by chance know where I could find her?

Supervisor to 104 Supervisor to 104.

Cardiac wing?

Take the elevator to the fifth floor then turn left.

Thank you.

Well, that's what I was just saying. It's absolutely impossible.

Hold the elevator.

Thank you.

Can I help you?

Yes. Good evening.

I'm here to see Emily Posa.

I'm sorry, visiting hours are from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.

You know, it is really important I speak to her for just a moment.

You'll just have to come back during visiting hours.

Thank you very much.

So if there is one thing that I have learned...

and you all should remember about winning these contracts:

Three steps. First, tell them what you're gonna tell them.

Step two, you tell them.

Step three, tell them what you told them.

We are gonna close by reminding them...

that old girl has a 3-percent better impulse from sea level to vacuum...

and if they pass on that, quite frankly, they deserve another Sputnik.

Now, if you will excuse me...

I have a very lovely, very hungry woman at home waiting for me.

Sarah.

Honey.

Everyone at work kept saying it was daylight-savings time.

You were supposed to be here a while ago.

- I kept saying it wasn't. - This happens all the time. It's work.

- I'm sorry. I'm sorry. - No, I'm angry with you.

I'm gonna be angry all night long.

- I'm angry with you. - What are you doing?

How about that? How about I'm angry with you?

- Hello? - Hey, it's me. It's your brother.

Where are you?

I'm at the beach house.

Are you okay?

Of course.

Listen, why'd you disconnect the landline?

The phone broke.

I don't need it anymore.

Did I...? Did I do something?

No.

Not unless you're smoking again.

No, I've put on 20 pounds. I'm in the best shape of my life.

Are you eating? Are you taking care of yourself?

- You sound terrible again and... - Yeah, I'm fine. Look, I gotta go.

Give Melanie and the kids a hug and a kiss.

I'll talk to you later. You take care of yourself.

Hold on. I know it's been a while, but when you were staying here...

you didn't take something of mine by mistake, did you?

I remember giving you something.

You remember that? Because I remember that very clearly.

Yeah. Yeah.

Just remember I love you.

Hi, my name is Ben Thomas. I'm here to see Stewart Goodman.

Inez, look at me, please.

Inez. I'm speaking to you.

I understand you refused to take your meds again. Is that true?

No, no, no.

Let's try using your words this time, okay, Inez?

I mean, this silent treatment isn't doing anybody any good.

Inez, how can we help you if...?

Okay, how about I come back tomorrow...

and see if you've changed your mind, okay?

Thattagirl.

I thought I was coming to your office today.

I was in the neighbourhood. I thought I'd stop by, save you the drive.

Terrific. Well, look, let's go talk in my office, yeah? Come on.

I take a no-nonsense approach

I mean, I cut the operating costs of this place...

over 17 percent last year alone.

- I'm sure that made them happy. - Oh, hell, yeah.

Now, if I could only get my own finances...

in that kind of shape, I wouldn't have you sitting here.

No offence.

That your new Beemer out front?

Ben, I mean, when I found out...

that my bone-marrow transplant wasn't successful...

I'm well aware of your ongoing medical condition.

Things aren't looking very promising for me.

Look...

I have a bonus coming in January.

I just really need this six-month extension.

Really, I mean, I am doing the very best I can here, I promise you.

I'm gonna show myself out.

I'll be in touch.

Well, thank you. I appreciate it.

I mean, this way everybody wins, right?

Hello.

My name is Ben.

I totally understand if you don't wanna speak to me either.

But I would really like to just have a moment of your time.

I'm trying to figure out what kind of man Stewart Goodman is.

It is within my power to drastically change his circumstances.

But I don't wanna give that man a gift that he doesn't deserve.

I need you to tell me whether or not he is a good person.

"The drug he gives me..."

Makes me dizzy.

"I want a new one."

Well, that sounds very reasonable, Inez.

What else?

You can trust me.

What else, Inez?

He's punishing you?

How is he punishing you?

How is he punishing you, Inez?

Ben?

- Hey, Ben, where you going? - Where's the washroom?

To the right. Is there a problem?

- Give her a bath, right now. - Absolutely.

Thank you. Thank you.

You have the wrong impression here.

I'm gonna stop by from time to time...

make sure you're showing these people some respect.

Look, this is a misunderstanding, okay?

You don't treat people like that.

Let me explain, okay, Ben?

- And I'm not giving you an extension. - Ben!

I'm not giving you anything.

I almost believed you, you son of a bitch.

I almost believed.

Okay. Grip and rip.

This time it's gonna be a lot different.

Hey.

- Hey, Michelle. - Hey.

- Good to see you. - You too.

- How are you? - I'm good.

- Hey, man. - Hey. What are you doing here?

Just coming to make sure that she is still kicking your ass at everything.
