Breakfast with Jerry Addie Mae's Oak Street

- Hi! Ha, ha, ha, ha. - Hey, how you doin' today? Good morning.

How's it goin'? It's good to see you.

Right on time!

Monday, May 28th, 7:22 AM.

Gonna be... sunny and humid. A light breeze, outta the west.

Mild headache. Gotta meet Jerry at 8:20.

OK, what else is new?

Come on, Molly, pick up. I know you're there.

You're standing by the machine, you're flipping your Pez.

Please, look, I'm sorry. I'll make it up to you. Please, pick up the phone.

- Uh, uh, uh! Don't you dare. - He's sorry. - They're always sorry.

- He wants me to make it up to me. - By letting him do it again?

- ...or call me, whatever! - No! Jolene!

Look, forget about him! Forget about all men like him. You can do better.

- Aren't you gonna be late for work? - Oh!

My keys, where are my keys?

- It was good in the beginning. - It's always good at the beginning.

Haven't you figured that out yet?

Oh, of course!

It couldn't be helped. It was... - A car thing?

Actually, nothing went wrong with the car this time, it was...

- Towed? - Well...

Booted...

Yes! Uh... I brought flowers!

- I got flowers. - You got plastic flowers...

And can we be straight for a second, customers hate them. I hate them.

And if you were being completely honest, you'd say you hate them, too.

Ugh, gum! Perfect.

That's so gross!

- Hi! Are you ready to order? - Ummm, uh.

- Ummm, in your bag, maybe? - Smart thinking. Y-yes, yes... yes!

- Oh, missed it. - Is that a horse?

Uhhh, that's a, that's an elephant. The... trunks are kinda hard... to...

- So, what'll you have? - Food, yeah, right!

- You need a minute? - I would love a minute. Yeah, thank you, Molly.

Still waitin' on Jerry, on my fourth cup of coffee here at, uh, Addie Mae's.

Good coffee. Make a note to come back.

Should be clear tonight. Venus visible... I hope so.

Right now, I'm looking at some fresh flowers. Smell good! Sweet.

- I wonder what kind they are? - Ha!

Yeah, make a note: Addie Mae's. Definitely come back.

- Gus?! - Hmm? - Anybody in here named Gus?

- Yeah, that's me. - You got a phone call.

- It's over here. - OK. Thank you.

Thank you! Hello?

Hey! Jerry!

No, yeah, I mean I got your missed call, but I got to the phone right as it was...

you know, missing it... I do... I don't... it just said missed call so...

Interferometer gravitation. Hmm.

Tuesday. Breakfast with Jerry at the new location. Smile at strangers.

Uh, yeah, I'll talk to you soon. OK, bye.

- Here you go. - Oh! Thank you.

- Uh, that's actually all for you. Yeah. - Oh. Thank you.

- How was everything? - Uhhh, wonderful.

Good.

- Uh, Freesias. - Huh? - Uh, the flowers? They're... they're called Freesias.

Oh, huh, OK. Bye.

Bye.

- Mornin', Ardis. - Mr. Gus, here I am thinkin', for once he's gonna be...

- Late? - But you never are.

- Sam's in back, he needs to talk to you. - Oh, uh... I like your haircut.

Why, thank you... Gus, but my appointment's at noon.

Right, what I meant is, your hair looks great, so... don't let'em change it too much.

- Hey, Sam. You OK? - Yeah.

No, uh, I'm missing a stone, that nice blue diamond. Have you seen it?

I think you were cleaning it the other day.

Gus, you were the last one to have it.

Never mind, we'll find it. Listen, Mrs. Bing needs her brooch soon.

- Can you get to it? - Mrs. Bing?

Mrs. Bing is the lady who uses too much perfume.

- Yeah, I-I wouldn't know. - Well, don't worry, when you smell that, you'll know her.

Ok, uh, top piority, fix Mrs. Bing's brooch.

That's the big one not to worry about, it's the diamond. The diamond I need.

And you. I need you.

Find blue diamond.

End of the month. Tuition due, rent due, student loans calling,

my stupid booted car...

I'd just like one thing that worked out in my favor, you know?

- OK. How much? - Oh, no. No, Jolene, I cannot ask you to loan me money again, no.

Let me at least help get your car out of jail.

Just... round number.

Well, uh...

past tickets, current tickets, boot removal...

it's like $175, $200!

Alright... OK.

- Here. - I'm good for it.

I know.

Are you getting any closer with that inheritance probate thing?

Mission Impossible? I'm starting to wonder if it's all a lost cause.

I-I'm going to do things differently. I am.

Starting today! I'm going to get my money situation straightened out, I'm even gonna...

Break up with Roger! You were right! What kinda guy stands a girl up on her birthday?

See? Thatta girl! And do yourself

a favor. Find a nice, normal guy, for a change.

- He's out there. - No one knows about you, Jolene.

- That you're a good person. - See, well, that's we're roommates.

Because you're totally deluded.

Hey, Gus!

- Oh, hi! - It's Bernadette and Max.

- We live right above you. - Nice to meet ya.

- Come on, you know us! - OK... alright.

OK, let's Gus go now. OK? Come on.

- Can you gimme back that five bucks you owe me? - Oooh, ahh!

You don't owe him anything! How many times do I have to tell you?

You stop telling Gus he owes you money! That can't man help it,

he can't remember one day from the next.

Bernadette Max! Bernadette Max! Bernadette Max!

- Oh, great! Thanks Romaine! - Yeah, see you next time, Molly.

Alright darlin', where you hidin'?

Venus.

If you aren't using social media, then why not?

Where's your website, or your blog? Do you know how to promote yourself on Twitter

and Yelp and Google Search? The possibilities are endless and the bottom line

is, if you aren't conversant with how to drive small businesses these days,

then you can't start one yet.

I want you to have a plan. That's your assignment for Monday.

Tell me your plan. Got it?

You guys wanna see an example of a good template, you can download the PDF off my website.

Right now I'm looking at some fresh flowers. Smell good. Sweet.

I wonder what kind they are?

Yeah, make a note: Addie Mae's. Definitely come back.

Um, hi. You don't know me, and, believe me, I've never done anything like this, in my life, but, um

I just wanted to say thanks for noticing the flowers.

You seem like a really, well, nice guy... and

I hope Mars comes out tonight, like you said. Venus, you said Venus... anyway, um

Have a nice day, a nice... life. Uhh, oh, my name's Molly.

I don't want you to let the grade discourage you, because this flower shop is a fine

idea, but you're vision is unfocused. Think about all the other competition in this town.

I just don't want you throwing your money into some hole that you can't get yourself out of.

What do you know about what you're getting into? I mean, tell me why a flower shop?

Well, some kids wish on stars.

I plucked petals off of daisies.

Getting a bouquet can j-just make someone's day, and I...

I know it's not... a big dream.

OK, but it is to you. So show it some respect, and get yourself organized.

- Hi! Ha, ha, ha, ha. - Good morning!

- Hey! - Good to see ya! - Hey, man.

You're a minute late!

Hey, you okay? You need to talk about it?

So, I call you every morning, huh?

- You need me to come over? - No, no, it's OK. Ummm...

Luce, I left California and moved back to New Orleans, because of this?

Yeah, so, you could be close to the familiar... so I could be

here for you, whenever you need me. And Jerry... too.

Thank you... you know, for-for putting all this togther and just...

- helping me. - What are sisters for?

Venus, you said Venus. Anyway, umm,

Have a nice day, a nice, life. Uh, oh, my name's Molly.

Remember Suzy Watkins, 5th grade? She gave you all her Valentines.

- What does that have to do... - Lily Gazinski, Junior year?

She asked you to Junior Prom. I didn't even stand a chance!

Until you moved to California. 12 years, of school, watching

women just fall into your lap. And what did I always get?

I got a double feature at home, with popcorn

and my sister. And I even had a flat stomach, back then.

- Even Brenda liked you better than me. - Jerry.

- Who... is... Molly? - Yeah, right, uh, Molly. Um...

I'd say... nice girl, probably not very pretty.

Uh, sensitive type, big heart, playful sense of curiosity.

Kinda psycho leaves messages for strangers? How do you like her?

- I like her. alright, - Only you.

I have paying clients and a case to win.

- Get lost! Go! I mean, you have to leave! - Yeah, I-I picked up on that.

- Yes. - Yeah, you leave now, yeah!

- Oh, whoa! - Whoa!

- Sorry! - Oh, my Gosh! I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to startle you like that.

Oh, hi, I-I didn't realize you worked here.

Um, it's me, you remember?

Gus, right? I um, I waited on you.

Uh, sorry if I, freaked you out that day. I was... having one of those days.

Actually, this is one of those days, too. I need to sell this.

It's pretty pricey. Umm, it was a gift.

But, I am, like, broke, so I'll take half of whatever it's worth.

- I'm really sorry, but I-I-I can't help you out today. - Tomorrow, then? You tell me.

Uhhh, no, really, I mean, I-I can't.

- Why not? - Uh, well, because it's a.... fake.

- Noooo! - Yeah.

- It can't be! - Yeah. Come here, I'll show you.

Let's see. Yeah, right there. So!

Genuine article. Yours.

You can tell, first off, by the finish.

Then you can really feel the difference... here. You can kinda feel the difference, there.

And then, really, the, the kicker is there is a trademark,

on the real deal and, unfortunately, that is missing, on yours.

- Oh, of course! - Sorry. You alright?

- Worthless, lying, jerk! - Jewel!

- Which one was that? - I'm so sorry, I did not mean, to do that... I...

I s... oh, "Forever, Roger". So, we're good. - OK.

I'm so sorry. Um, yeah, forever didn't actually turn out to be that long.

Thank you for looking at it, anyway.

Yeah... hey, that's a really nice ring you've got there, with the rubies?

- What, this one? - Yeah. you mind if I take a look at it?

- Um, it's got half the stones missing. - So they are.

Ha, ha. But still, it's a really nice ring. And there's plenty of stones still in it.
