Come on, get in.

No, I'm just here.

Come on.

I was surprised to see you.

Really, why?

Sometimes, yes.

They told me you got along.

She really liked you.

So what do you do now?

Do you have another patient?

Not yet. No.

This is me. Just here.

Do you wanna get some breakfast or something?

Just talk a little bit more?

I don't... I-I should go.

I just want to ask you a couple of questions about my aunt.

I'm sorry.

I might need another drink.

All right. What do you want?

Should I be the husband? The decision maker?

Can I get, uh...

Can I get two shots of Patron?

-Are you alone? -Mm-hmm.

-Okay. Three shots! -We'll get three. Thank you.

We're celebrating. We're getting married...

Well, we're getting... we got engaged.

-She asked me. -Congratulations.

What? Sort of.

I did, I asked him to marry me.

Are you married? Do you have to deal with this?

I was. My wife passed away recently.

I'm sorry.

Mm-hmm. She was very sick.

I took care of her so...

What... what was her name?

Sarah.

-Pretty. -Yeah.

To... to Sarah.

Yeah, to Sarah.

-Sarah. -Cheers.

How long were you married for?

Twenty-one years.

-Long time. -Yeah.

Sorry to ask a personal question.

No. She had AIDS.

Hello?

Hello?

Hello?

They're not answering.

Hello?

How are you feeling, John?

This is David.

Can you say hi to David?

Can you say 'Hi, David?'

Fuck you, Mildred.

Who are you?

I'm a nurse, John.

-The stroke was five days ago. -Okay.

How does he look to you?

Let's take a look.

Well, he seems strong.

You have experience in these types of cases?

Yes, I do.

Do they improve?

Well, that depends on John, really.

The doctor is coming in two hours.

Okay, let's put this on the bed, John.

But with therapy they improve a lot, right?

Mildred, will you shut up?

You can start today?

Yes, if John wants me to.

Okay. Yeah. Thank you.

Do you mind if I close this?

No, go ahead.

Need to see the bathroom?

It's right there.

All yours.

I shit in bed.

Okay, good. Let me get your back now.

I want you to do the front, okay?

Oh, there we are.

Are you ready?

Okay, now.

Good, John.

Very good.

Get your privates for you.

Like that, okay.

Hey, Dad. Linda, yes or no?

Linda. Yes or no?

No, no.

Let me get that.

That was very good.

Very good indeed.

Good.

You want me to maybe open a window?

You want some air, John?

All right, this one you can help with, okay?

Just give me a...

Just push back as much as you feel comfortable.

Shouldn't he be on oxygen when you're doing this?

Can you get out of the room?

Good.

My head hurts.

You want one of my pills?

I want you to leave.

We'll be right outside if you need anything.

Okay.

What really... really... Really scares me...

having to depend on them.

They're scared too, John.

You married?

No.

That's better.

Women are unbearable.

I'm just going to get this pillow out from under.

You're fine, don't worry. I got you.

I got your neck.

You're an architect, right?

Uh, yes.

You can... there.

You married?

No. I got... I got divorced 25 years ago.

I'm going to turn you, John, all right?

So you tell me if it hurts.
