1
00:00:57,683 --> 00:01:00,482
Oh, God.

2
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:48,196
Mr. Morrison, you are here
because you are in contempt of court.

3
00:01:49,067 --> 00:01:52,196
The Building Commission has documented

4
00:01:52,362 --> 00:01:57,084
repeated efforts to give you an opportunity
to bring your house to code.

5
00:01:57,242 --> 00:02:00,166
There are 26 violations

6
00:02:00,329 --> 00:02:01,751
against the structure

7
00:02:02,080 --> 00:02:04,629
and they're requesting that
your house be bulldozed.

8
00:02:04,791 --> 00:02:07,715
It has also come to my
attention that you have

9
00:02:07,878 --> 00:02:11,849
violated a court order expressly
prohibiting building on the site

10
00:02:12,049 --> 00:02:14,427
until those matters have been resolved.

11
00:02:14,593 --> 00:02:19,019
Do you understand the
gravity of these charges?

12
00:02:19,348 --> 00:02:20,816
That you could go to jail?

13
00:02:21,350 --> 00:02:22,522
Yes, I do.

14
00:02:26,104 --> 00:02:28,072
Are you a baseball fan, Your Honour?

15
00:02:30,108 --> 00:02:31,234
Excuse me?

16
00:02:40,035 --> 00:02:41,378
When I was 11

17
00:02:41,536 --> 00:02:44,460
my father took me to Boston to see a game.

18
00:02:44,623 --> 00:02:45,875
It was a doubleheader

19
00:02:46,041 --> 00:02:49,090
between the Boston Red Sox and the Yankees.

20
00:02:49,252 --> 00:02:54,099
Dad pulled a baseball
out of his pocket and he said to me,

21
00:02:54,257 --> 00:02:59,013
"You go down there to that dugout
and get Babe Ruth to sign that ball."

22
00:02:59,179 --> 00:03:02,353
I'm going to tell you right out of the bush
I was scared to death.

23
00:03:02,516 --> 00:03:04,564
<i>Anyhow, so down I go.</i>

24
00:03:04,726 --> 00:03:09,027
Babe Ruth said to me,
"Why sure, Sonny, I'll sign your ball."

25
00:03:09,189 --> 00:03:11,112
Then, at the other end of the dugout,

26
00:03:11,274 --> 00:03:15,120
Lou Gehrig was looking at some bats.
He signed her, too.

27
00:03:15,946 --> 00:03:20,622
Well, sir, that ball is famous even today.

28
00:03:20,784 --> 00:03:23,788
Lelands wanted to put it
in their auction down in New York.

29
00:03:24,621 --> 00:03:27,670
They wrote about me and that ball
in the St. John paper.

30
00:03:27,833 --> 00:03:30,507
I still have the article.

31
00:03:30,669 --> 00:03:33,263
Who's Babe Ruth, Grampy?

32
00:03:36,591 --> 00:03:39,686
Just the greatest sportsman
that ever lived.

33
00:03:39,845 --> 00:03:42,189
Hey, how old are you, anyway?

34
00:03:42,347 --> 00:03:43,473
Nine.

35
00:03:43,765 --> 00:03:47,770
You mean to tell me you're nine years old
and no one's told you who Babe Ruth is yet?

36
00:03:47,894 --> 00:03:49,646
No. How old are you?

37
00:03:50,021 --> 00:03:51,068
Eighty-seven.

38
00:03:51,231 --> 00:03:53,233
Do you know who Drake is?

39
00:03:54,985 --> 00:03:56,328
Who?

40
00:03:56,486 --> 00:03:57,829
Then we're even.

41
00:04:00,282 --> 00:04:02,009
The little bugger reminds me of his father.

42
00:04:02,033 --> 00:04:03,956
He reminds me of someone else I know.

43
00:04:26,475 --> 00:04:29,149
Doesn't seem like a day
for a funeral, does it?

44
00:04:29,311 --> 00:04:30,938
No.

45
00:04:31,104 --> 00:04:33,903
Then again, I don't
imagine too many days do.

46
00:04:35,984 --> 00:04:38,078
Do you think much about dying?

47
00:04:39,613 --> 00:04:42,457
Probably not as much as I should.

48
00:04:45,035 --> 00:04:49,131
When I was young, I looked at old people

49
00:04:49,289 --> 00:04:51,917
and thought, "if you live long enough,

50
00:04:52,083 --> 00:04:54,962
you probably had time
to figure out dying."

51
00:04:58,507 --> 00:05:02,137
But I'm no closer now to the great mystery

52
00:05:02,302 --> 00:05:05,021
than when I was ten.

53
00:05:07,516 --> 00:05:09,143
See that as a problem, do you?

54
00:05:11,895 --> 00:05:14,398
We'll find out soon enough.

55
00:05:16,566 --> 00:05:18,568
Speak for yourself.

56
00:05:18,735 --> 00:05:21,079
I plan on beating the odds.

57
00:05:25,534 --> 00:05:28,378
Shall we bow in a moment
of prayer together?

58
00:05:58,567 --> 00:06:02,913
The TSX hit a record again
yesterday reaching 14,660

59
00:06:03,071 --> 00:06:06,701
and shattering last year's high of 14,625.

60
00:06:06,867 --> 00:06:08,164
That represents a...

61
00:06:26,177 --> 00:06:28,179
Good morning, ladies.

62
00:06:31,600 --> 00:06:33,773
Oh...

63
00:06:58,001 --> 00:07:00,424
We should have put the
beds in these years ago.

64
00:07:00,587 --> 00:07:04,182
Your oldest daughter thinks
we look like trailer trash.

65
00:07:04,341 --> 00:07:05,968
It's installation art.

66
00:08:01,856 --> 00:08:04,029
Do you see the cows?

67
00:08:07,112 --> 00:08:09,035
Yes, dear, I see the cows.

68
00:08:09,197 --> 00:08:10,870
I wonder who they belong to.

69
00:08:12,075 --> 00:08:14,669
They're ours.
You know that.

70
00:08:18,915 --> 00:08:19,962
Ho! Ho!

71
00:08:23,461 --> 00:08:26,214
Come on now, come on.
Ha! Ha!

72
00:08:32,262 --> 00:08:34,356
Hey, Dad.
Ruthie.

73
00:08:36,016 --> 00:08:38,439
How'd the checkup go?

74
00:08:38,601 --> 00:08:41,195
Clean bill of health for both of us.

75
00:08:41,354 --> 00:08:42,526
Really?
Mm...

76
00:08:43,857 --> 00:08:45,859
Doctor didn't say anything
about her memory?

77
00:08:46,026 --> 00:08:47,653
I forgot to ask him.

78
00:08:47,819 --> 00:08:50,789
You're kidding, right?

79
00:08:51,281 --> 00:08:53,909
No, really, I forgot.

80
00:08:54,075 --> 00:08:56,498
Maybe I should be asking about my memory.

81
00:08:56,661 --> 00:08:57,661
Huh...

82
00:08:57,787 --> 00:09:01,007
Where's Mom?
She's out in the truck.

83
00:09:01,166 --> 00:09:03,168
She didn't want to come in?

84
00:09:03,334 --> 00:09:05,007
No, she was content to stay put.

85
00:09:13,261 --> 00:09:16,231
Maybe we should buy our milk at the store.

86
00:09:16,389 --> 00:09:18,232
How's Ruth?

87
00:09:31,321 --> 00:09:33,699
Hey, Dad.
John.

88
00:09:33,865 --> 00:09:35,037
Need anything in Sussex?

89
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:37,373
I'm going over to pick up some fencing.

90
00:09:37,535 --> 00:09:39,128
Not right now.

91
00:09:40,747 --> 00:09:41,839
I heard about the cows.

92
00:09:44,501 --> 00:09:46,299
Everybody's heard about the cows.

93
00:09:47,587 --> 00:09:50,090
Well, I'm done with them.

94
00:09:50,256 --> 00:09:52,133
What, really?

95
00:09:52,300 --> 00:09:54,974
Unless, of course, if you want them.

96
00:09:55,136 --> 00:09:57,685
Well, you know, with the
beef market the way it is,

97
00:09:57,847 --> 00:09:59,567
it's not really a hobby I can afford, so...

98
00:09:59,724 --> 00:10:01,192
Fair enough.

99
00:10:11,528 --> 00:10:12,654
Really?

100
00:10:12,821 --> 00:10:15,040
Now?

101
00:10:40,765 --> 00:10:43,484
How many miles you got
on them tires, Craig?

102
00:10:43,643 --> 00:10:47,443
You know, this is what happens
when you're too cheap to buy new ones.

103
00:10:49,149 --> 00:10:51,447
I heard the boys bought
themselves a new tractor.

104
00:10:51,609 --> 00:10:54,829
Sure surprised they gave the
old man the keys, though.

105
00:10:55,530 --> 00:10:57,908
No wonder those cows escaped.

106
00:10:58,074 --> 00:11:01,203
I would have replaced
some of those fence posts years ago.

107
00:11:01,369 --> 00:11:04,748
How's that strawberry crop of
yours doing there, Chester?

108
00:11:05,623 --> 00:11:08,547
Oh, goddamn global warming.

109
00:11:08,710 --> 00:11:11,463
I haven't seen a spring
with this much rain ever.

110
00:11:11,629 --> 00:11:15,304
That's funny, I got more
berries than I can handle.

111
00:11:15,466 --> 00:11:17,639
So you know anybody who's
looking for work picking...

112
00:11:17,802 --> 00:11:19,896
you send them my way.

113
00:11:20,930 --> 00:11:23,479
Well, aren't you a smug bastard.

114
00:11:46,456 --> 00:11:48,800
What if I was ten minutes later?

115
00:11:52,128 --> 00:11:54,551
Goodness, Craig, what did
you do to our kitchen?

116
00:11:56,299 --> 00:11:59,769
I didn't do anything to the kitchen.
You left an oven mitt on the stove.

117
00:11:59,928 --> 00:12:01,726
Oh, don't be ridiculous.

118
00:12:04,682 --> 00:12:07,481
I didn't.
Yes, you did!

119
00:12:37,090 --> 00:12:38,558
Well...

120
00:12:38,716 --> 00:12:40,218
we've been talking about it.

121
00:12:42,762 --> 00:12:44,389
Who's "we"?

122
00:12:46,849 --> 00:12:49,352
Well, your first mistake was
having seven children, so...

123
00:12:50,311 --> 00:12:53,110
She has her good days and
her bad days, that's all.

124
00:12:55,066 --> 00:12:56,192
She's fine.

125
00:13:28,224 --> 00:13:29,771
Do you smell smoke?

126
00:13:31,602 --> 00:13:34,572
I was burning some brush out back today.

127
00:13:35,982 --> 00:13:37,825
Some of it must have blown into the house.

128
00:13:51,289 --> 00:13:52,836
I want to see you.

129
00:13:55,501 --> 00:13:59,005
It's been a while.
Has it?

130
00:14:00,006 --> 00:14:02,054
Take off your clothes, old man.

131
00:14:37,293 --> 00:14:38,715
I'm sorry.

132
00:14:40,213 --> 00:14:41,305
What for?

133
00:14:45,093 --> 00:14:46,185
Nothing.

134
00:14:47,887 --> 00:14:49,560
I'm just sorry.

135
00:14:53,935 --> 00:14:57,690
It never gets old, does it?

136
00:14:57,855 --> 00:14:59,323
No, it doesn't.

137
00:15:01,901 --> 00:15:04,324
We always did the passion part well.

138
00:15:08,908 --> 00:15:10,910
Remember that hotel in St. John...

139
00:15:12,370 --> 00:15:13,917
when we were first married?

140
00:15:15,331 --> 00:15:18,335
Remember the drive to St. John
before the hotel?

141
00:15:21,712 --> 00:15:26,388
Jeez, you always seemed so prim and proper.

142
00:15:26,551 --> 00:15:27,848
I was...

143
00:15:30,096 --> 00:15:31,769
until I met you.

144
00:15:34,559 --> 00:15:36,357
Who would have guessed it?

145
00:15:43,568 --> 00:15:47,368
Oh, strawberries are A-1 this year, boss.
Yes, they are, Gus.

146
00:15:48,906 --> 00:15:51,785
We'll take off another load this afternoon
once it cools down.

147
00:15:52,577 --> 00:15:53,577
Roger that.

148
00:16:02,879 --> 00:16:07,055
Mr. Morrison,
didn't expect to see you again this year.

149
00:16:07,216 --> 00:16:08,513
Oh? Why's that?

150
00:16:08,676 --> 00:16:10,553
Didn't you get my letter?
Hmm...

151
00:16:10,720 --> 00:16:12,222
Not that I recall, no.

152
00:16:12,388 --> 00:16:15,642
We sent it back in February
on account of new regulations.

153
00:16:15,808 --> 00:16:19,187
We only buy from growers who ship
their products in refrigerated trucks.

154
00:16:21,230 --> 00:16:23,824
These were on the plants not two hours ago.

155
00:16:24,650 --> 00:16:26,994
There's no heat of the day in them at all.

156
00:16:27,153 --> 00:16:29,622
Well, it's a head-office decision.

157
00:16:32,992 --> 00:16:35,415
Any wiggle room on this?
Afraid not.

158
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:38,794
Well, that just means I'm shit out of luck.

159
00:16:39,832 --> 00:16:43,086
I can't afford a refrigerated truck
for less than an acre.

160
00:16:43,252 --> 00:16:44,720
Yeah, I know.

161
00:16:44,879 --> 00:16:47,177
I'm sorry, I wish there was
something I could do about it.

162
00:16:47,340 --> 00:16:49,843
Yeah. Me too.

163
00:16:51,010 --> 00:16:54,480
It seems like there's some kind of
regulation for everything nowadays.

164
00:17:00,811 --> 00:17:03,485
Never understood why you can't
just double the recipe.

165
00:17:03,648 --> 00:17:06,868
We could make a whole lot more.
It doesn't work that way.

166
00:17:07,026 --> 00:17:09,996
No. Old wives' tale.

167
00:17:11,405 --> 00:17:12,873
Craig...
Hm?

168
00:17:13,032 --> 00:17:15,876
Just because you have a
field of strawberries,

169
00:17:16,035 --> 00:17:19,414
I'm not going to make 10,000 jars of jam.

170
00:17:21,832 --> 00:17:23,049
Give them away.

171
00:17:38,891 --> 00:17:40,484
Goddammit.

172
00:17:57,076 --> 00:17:58,623
Here we go.

173
00:18:09,922 --> 00:18:13,017
This reminds me of my milk delivering days.

174
00:18:13,175 --> 00:18:16,304
Back before I knew you, I
had a horse and a wagon.

175
00:18:16,929 --> 00:18:19,557
Took over the route from old man Lefebvre.

176
00:18:19,724 --> 00:18:20,941
I know.

177
00:19:40,096 --> 00:19:42,190
The water in the toilet froze last night.

178
00:19:44,809 --> 00:19:47,187
My bet is it's going to
freeze again tonight.

179
00:19:49,605 --> 00:19:53,075
We've already been through
three cords of wood this winter.

180
00:19:53,234 --> 00:19:55,657
Barely keeping this place warm.

181
00:19:55,820 --> 00:19:58,414
Truth is, may not be much longer

182
00:19:58,572 --> 00:20:01,041
before this place doesn't
work for us anymore.

183
00:20:03,828 --> 00:20:06,206
The view's not all that great either.

184
00:20:06,372 --> 00:20:09,296
You sound like Ruth.
Oh?

185
00:20:09,458 --> 00:20:11,631
No, I'm not moving into town.

186
00:20:11,794 --> 00:20:14,673
And you'll have to shoot me
before you find me in a retirement home.

187
00:20:15,715 --> 00:20:17,467
The only view there

188
00:20:17,633 --> 00:20:20,352
is of the slow shuffle into the ground.

189
00:20:21,387 --> 00:20:22,639
That's not what I meant.

190
00:20:24,640 --> 00:20:28,110
I was thinking of building
us something smaller,

191
00:20:28,269 --> 00:20:30,317
more manageable,

192
00:20:30,479 --> 00:20:32,732
on that plot of ours across the road.

193
00:20:32,898 --> 00:20:34,241
One level.

194
00:20:34,942 --> 00:20:36,239
We don't have the money.

195
00:20:37,069 --> 00:20:39,663
This place isn't worth a thing.
Mm.

196
00:20:39,822 --> 00:20:41,870
And we're not taking a mortgage.

197
00:20:42,950 --> 00:20:45,078
If I did the work myself,
we could afford it.

198
00:20:47,747 --> 00:20:49,499
With the strawberries and the cattle gone,

199
00:20:49,665 --> 00:20:51,838
I seem to have a lot more free time.

200
00:20:59,467 --> 00:21:00,935
Promise me one thing.

201
00:21:01,594 --> 00:21:03,267
Mm-hmm.

202
00:21:03,888 --> 00:21:07,643
We won't move until we have to.

203
00:21:09,643 --> 00:21:11,645
Fair enough.

204
00:21:34,627 --> 00:21:35,844
' Dad!

205
00:21:43,511 --> 00:21:45,934
Well, it looks like you got
another project in mind.

206
00:21:46,514 --> 00:21:49,688
Are you the official spokesman
for all your brothers and sisters,

207
00:21:49,850 --> 00:21:51,318
or just here by yourself?

208
00:21:52,520 --> 00:21:53,692
A bit of both.

209
00:21:55,147 --> 00:21:56,524
Well, that's nice.

210
00:21:57,316 --> 00:21:59,739
No, we just felt awful
if it wasn't mentioned

211
00:21:59,902 --> 00:22:02,405
that you could get someone
else to build it for you.

212
00:22:02,571 --> 00:22:04,164
No. Don't have the money.

213
00:22:04,323 --> 00:22:05,996
Dad, you're sitting on 2,000 acres.

214
00:22:06,158 --> 00:22:08,752
Sell off a piece.
You know as well as I do,

215
00:22:08,911 --> 00:22:10,754
if you're going to live here
you need a big land base.

216
00:22:10,913 --> 00:22:12,881
Big land base, yeah.

217
00:22:13,040 --> 00:22:15,384
Besides, nothing's stopping
me from doing the work.

218
00:22:15,543 --> 00:22:17,841
Except that you're in your eighties.

219
00:22:18,003 --> 00:22:20,927
Well, Son, way I look at it,

220
00:22:21,090 --> 00:22:23,684
age is just an abstraction,
not a straightjacket.

221
00:22:23,843 --> 00:22:26,187
The truth is...

222
00:22:26,846 --> 00:22:29,019
I'm sort of looking forward to it.

223
00:22:29,181 --> 00:22:32,401
I haven't had a big project
like this in quite a while.

224
00:22:34,144 --> 00:22:35,191
Fair enough.

225
00:22:36,355 --> 00:22:38,608
Is there anything any of
us can do to help here?

226
00:22:38,774 --> 00:22:41,618
Sure.
Need a bit of work with the backhoe

227
00:22:41,777 --> 00:22:44,280
if you've got the time.
Yeah, no problem.

228
00:22:47,908 --> 00:22:49,956
Um...

229
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:52,588
Can you at least promise
me that you'll be careful?

230
00:22:52,746 --> 00:22:54,214
What?

231
00:22:55,040 --> 00:22:58,965
You know, if you... cut your hand off
with the circular saw

232
00:22:59,128 --> 00:23:01,847
in a fit of geriatric stupidity,

233
00:23:02,006 --> 00:23:05,636
my sisters, my wife, they're not going
to let me forget about that, so, uh...

234
00:23:05,801 --> 00:23:07,223
Wow!

235
00:23:07,386 --> 00:23:11,061
Must be tough waking up every morning
afraid of tripping over your own shadow.

236
00:23:11,223 --> 00:23:13,191
Aw...

237
00:23:19,607 --> 00:23:22,702
So the living room will go right here.

238
00:23:24,570 --> 00:23:26,243
Don't want to make it too big.

239
00:23:27,823 --> 00:23:30,667
I figure if the house
faces in this direction,

240
00:23:30,826 --> 00:23:32,624
that should give us the best view.

241
00:23:35,414 --> 00:23:37,837
I bet on a clear day you
can see half the county.

242
00:23:41,754 --> 00:23:42,846
Irene?

243
00:23:44,924 --> 00:23:46,767
What do you think?

244
00:23:47,551 --> 00:23:49,474
What are we doing, Craig?

245
00:23:50,262 --> 00:23:52,560
Irene, we've been over this before.

246
00:23:57,853 --> 00:23:59,855
We won't move in until we're ready.

247
00:24:01,148 --> 00:24:04,322
That's a promise, okay?

248
00:24:08,781 --> 00:24:09,873
. Okay-

249
00:24:11,200 --> 00:24:13,077
Thank you.

250
00:24:14,078 --> 00:24:17,127
So it's true.

251
00:24:17,289 --> 00:24:20,133
You know, I didn't believe
it when I heard it.

252
00:24:21,085 --> 00:24:23,929
I figured they'd have to carry you
out of here in a pine box

253
00:24:24,088 --> 00:24:26,887
before you'd spend money on a new house.

254
00:24:27,049 --> 00:24:28,471
Who you getting to build it?

255
00:24:30,094 --> 00:24:32,893
Chester, why do you ask questions
you already know the answer to?

256
00:24:35,724 --> 00:24:37,852
You got a permit?
A permit?

257
00:24:38,018 --> 00:24:40,942
Why would I need a permit?

258
00:24:41,105 --> 00:24:43,324
This is my land.

259
00:24:43,482 --> 00:24:45,826
Ever since they did the Royal
Commission two years ago,

260
00:24:45,985 --> 00:24:50,115
you got to have an official stamp
if you want to take a crap.

261
00:24:50,280 --> 00:24:53,329
Trust me.
You definitely need a permit.

262
00:24:53,492 --> 00:24:54,493
Yep-

263
00:24:58,914 --> 00:25:01,963
It just seems funny to me that
I should have to pay $400

264
00:25:02,126 --> 00:25:05,756
to build the house on a piece of property
I already own and pay taxes on.

265
00:25:05,921 --> 00:25:08,344
Yeah, we get that quite a bit.

266
00:25:08,507 --> 00:25:11,351
It's an administrative fee.
As you're building the house,

267
00:25:11,510 --> 00:25:14,730
we come out and check on you
and make sure it complies to code.

268
00:25:14,888 --> 00:25:17,311
Well, I suppose someone needs a job,

269
00:25:17,474 --> 00:25:19,397
but it's completely unnecessary.

270
00:25:19,560 --> 00:25:22,360
In case you haven't noticed,
there are a lot of houses in Saint Martins

271
00:25:22,521 --> 00:25:24,364
that are well over 200 years old.

272
00:25:24,523 --> 00:25:25,945
They're still standing.

273
00:25:26,692 --> 00:25:29,115
Where was your code then?
Yes sir.

274
00:25:29,278 --> 00:25:32,532
I think you're missing the point, but yeah.
I sure am.

275
00:25:33,699 --> 00:25:35,918
But if that's the way it's going to go,

276
00:25:36,076 --> 00:25:38,795
I guess I'll just have
to hand over the $400.

277
00:25:38,954 --> 00:25:40,797
There you go.
Thanks.

278
00:25:41,373 --> 00:25:43,796
And I'll just need to see your plans.

279
00:25:43,959 --> 00:25:45,211
Plans for what?

280
00:25:45,961 --> 00:25:47,178
For the house.

281
00:25:48,213 --> 00:25:49,715
I don't have any plans.

282
00:25:49,882 --> 00:25:52,681
Well, how are you going to build a house
without any plans?

283
00:25:53,469 --> 00:25:55,392
The way I've been doing it all my life.

284
00:25:56,096 --> 00:25:57,268
I know what I want.

285
00:25:57,973 --> 00:25:59,691
Well, how do you know?

286
00:26:02,144 --> 00:26:03,942
Because it's in my head, that's how.

287
00:26:04,104 --> 00:26:06,357
Well, that doesn't solve our problem.

288
00:26:06,523 --> 00:26:07,991
We need stamped blueprints.

289
00:26:09,651 --> 00:26:11,824
But... I'm not an architect.

290
00:26:11,987 --> 00:26:13,955
I don't know how to draw out plans.

291
00:26:14,114 --> 00:26:16,833
This is just going to cost
me a whole lot more money.

292
00:26:16,992 --> 00:26:18,414
Sir, we have to have them.

293
00:26:22,414 --> 00:26:26,840
Well... okay, I'll see what I can do.

294
00:26:27,002 --> 00:26:28,845
We'd appreciate that.
Hmm...

295
00:26:29,004 --> 00:26:32,429
Hmm. You have yourself a nice day.

296
00:26:32,591 --> 00:26:34,389
You too.
Hmm.

297
00:26:40,557 --> 00:26:41,774
Jeffrey?
Yeah.

298
00:26:42,935 --> 00:26:45,438
I'm going to put a big window right here.
Yeah.

299
00:26:45,604 --> 00:26:49,199
And, um, there'll be another
one against that wall.

300
00:26:49,358 --> 00:26:52,658
And one or two more small
ones along the back.

301
00:26:52,820 --> 00:26:53,820
All right.

302
00:26:54,655 --> 00:26:57,776
You don't happen to have the dimensions
of any of these windows, do you, Gramp?

303
00:26:58,700 --> 00:27:00,543
Not for the big one, no.
No'?

304
00:27:00,702 --> 00:27:03,205
I'm not sure whether I'm going
to go with a bay or not.

305
00:27:03,997 --> 00:27:07,092
I suppose I could commit
to where they're going right now,

306
00:27:07,251 --> 00:27:10,346
I mean, if we really need to.
Yeah, we really do.

307
00:27:11,713 --> 00:27:13,386
Uh, any idea about doors?

308
00:27:14,341 --> 00:27:16,093
Yep. We're going to have
some of those too.

309
00:27:17,469 --> 00:27:18,971
There's decency to be considered.

310
00:27:19,138 --> 00:27:21,857
Yeah, that's hilarious, Gramp.

311
00:27:22,558 --> 00:27:24,310
Two of them are already built.

312
00:27:24,476 --> 00:27:26,649
I'll have the measurements
for you in the morning.

313
00:27:28,105 --> 00:27:32,326
You do realize I'm an engineer,
not an architect, right?

314
00:27:32,484 --> 00:27:33,656
Oh, come on, Jeffrey.

315
00:27:34,361 --> 00:27:36,864
How hard could it be?

316
00:27:39,908 --> 00:27:41,034
. Okay-

317
00:27:43,078 --> 00:27:44,671
Jeffrey?
Yeah?

318
00:27:45,289 --> 00:27:49,135
I really appreciate the help.
I know how busy you are.

319
00:27:50,919 --> 00:27:54,014
Gramp, you gave me the land for my house.

320
00:27:54,173 --> 00:27:57,302
In comparison, this is no big deal.

321
00:27:59,344 --> 00:28:03,099
The pitch is delivered and...

322
00:28:05,893 --> 00:28:08,362
Aw, jeez, they stink.

323
00:28:08,520 --> 00:28:10,397
Yeah, they need a new manager.

324
00:28:12,107 --> 00:28:15,327
It's not a management problem,
it's a hitting problem.

325
00:28:16,570 --> 00:28:19,289
Oh well, there's always next year.

326
00:28:19,448 --> 00:28:22,873
We're just into May.
The season has barely begun.

327
00:28:23,035 --> 00:28:25,504
Why would you say that?

328
00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:33,758
Where are you going?
Upstairs to bed.

329
00:28:33,921 --> 00:28:36,424
We start on the foundation tomorrow.
What foundation?

330
00:28:38,967 --> 00:28:40,469
For the house, Irene.

331
00:28:40,636 --> 00:28:42,138
Goddammit.

332
00:29:30,978 --> 00:29:33,948
You're absolutely certain you
want to do this, old man?

333
00:29:35,691 --> 00:29:37,068
I sure am.

334
00:29:37,734 --> 00:29:39,486
Say, how's that chest cold of yours?

335
00:29:39,653 --> 00:29:42,076
Sure you don't need me to work the backhoe?

336
00:29:42,239 --> 00:29:44,162
Walking pneumonia, Dad.

337
00:29:44,324 --> 00:29:46,873
Where I come from, if you can
walk, it's not pneumonia.

338
00:29:47,536 --> 00:29:49,656
If the rest of us could rely
on strength of character

339
00:29:49,788 --> 00:29:53,213
instead of universal healthcare,
the world would be a better place.

340
00:29:56,628 --> 00:30:00,132
So now, how do you want to do this?

341
00:30:00,299 --> 00:30:02,659
I think we should just start in the east,
work our way back.

342
00:30:03,218 --> 00:30:05,391
Well, sounds like a plan.

343
00:30:05,554 --> 00:30:07,272
All right then.

344
00:30:19,484 --> 00:30:22,704
Here we go.

345
00:31:18,543 --> 00:31:20,136
'Morning, Grampy.

346
00:31:20,295 --> 00:31:22,172
Well, 'morning there, Gavin.

347
00:31:22,339 --> 00:31:24,057
Aren't you supposed to be in school?

348
00:31:24,216 --> 00:31:26,059
Summer vacation.

349
00:31:26,218 --> 00:31:28,721
On. on, right.

350
00:31:29,763 --> 00:31:33,313
So, uh, what are your plans for today?

351
00:31:33,475 --> 00:31:35,523
Don't have any.
Ah.

352
00:31:35,685 --> 00:31:38,188
I hear you're pretty handy with numbers.

353
00:31:38,355 --> 00:31:40,073
I guess so.

354
00:31:40,232 --> 00:31:43,156
Well, I could use a good
man with a tape measure,

355
00:31:43,318 --> 00:31:46,572
if you think you're up to it.
It depends.

356
00:31:47,656 --> 00:31:48,999
On what?

357
00:31:49,157 --> 00:31:51,125
Is this a paying job?

358
00:31:53,203 --> 00:31:55,501
Depends.
On what?

359
00:31:55,664 --> 00:31:57,962
If you're any good or not.

360
00:32:11,304 --> 00:32:14,023
You sure this is the right length?
I'm sure.

361
00:32:14,182 --> 00:32:15,684
Good. That's what I like.

362
00:32:15,851 --> 00:32:20,527
A man with the confidence to measure once
and stick with it, regardless.

363
00:32:32,075 --> 00:32:34,043
Everything all right?

364
00:32:35,787 --> 00:32:38,040
Just a little sore, that's all.

365
00:32:51,344 --> 00:32:52,391
Oh!

366
00:32:54,181 --> 00:32:56,650
Dad, are you all right?
Oh, yeah, I'm fine.

367
00:32:57,767 --> 00:32:59,861
Should have braced it better.

368
00:33:01,771 --> 00:33:03,318
Why don't you let me call Darryl?

369
00:33:03,482 --> 00:33:05,280
He can come and he can help you.
No.

370
00:33:05,442 --> 00:33:07,820
I can manage.
Your husband has enough

371
00:33:07,986 --> 00:33:09,283
to keep him busy on the farm.

372
00:33:09,446 --> 00:33:11,699
He doesn't need to be out here with me.

373
00:33:12,866 --> 00:33:15,369
Farm's not going anywhere.
Well, that makes two of us.

374
00:33:17,204 --> 00:33:20,378
All of us working together,
we could finish this in two or three weeks.

375
00:33:23,126 --> 00:33:24,548
What?

376
00:33:27,297 --> 00:33:29,675
I'm enjoying myself.

377
00:33:29,841 --> 00:33:32,685
I wasn't sure when I started
I still had it in me.

378
00:33:32,844 --> 00:33:36,098
But I don't need this to be finished
in two or three weeks.

379
00:33:37,682 --> 00:33:40,526
And more importantly,
neither does your mother.

380
00:33:56,785 --> 00:33:59,129
Oh, damn it!

381
00:33:59,287 --> 00:34:01,085
Don't you ever get bad cards?

382
00:34:03,041 --> 00:34:04,884
Well played, Irene.

383
00:34:05,043 --> 00:34:07,045
Come on, she got lucky, again.

384
00:34:07,963 --> 00:34:10,386
Have you seen that place
they're putting up on 17?

385
00:34:10,549 --> 00:34:13,052
At first I thought it was a hotel,

386
00:34:13,218 --> 00:34:15,516
but I hear it's just for one family.

387
00:34:15,679 --> 00:34:17,602
Well, how many kids do they have?

388
00:34:17,764 --> 00:34:19,617
Oh hell, if that damn
place were an orphanage,

389
00:34:19,641 --> 00:34:21,842
they still wouldn't know what
to do with all that room.

390
00:34:28,984 --> 00:34:31,282
Who's for another hand, hmm?

391
00:34:31,444 --> 00:34:32,912
Yeah.
Last one.

392
00:34:33,071 --> 00:34:35,165
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.

393
00:35:32,589 --> 00:35:35,809
I suppose it's too much to hope
you're here on a social visit.

394
00:35:35,967 --> 00:35:38,641
I don't tend to do much socializing
in St. Martins.

395
00:35:39,554 --> 00:35:41,932
Now, why doesn't that surprise me?

396
00:35:42,098 --> 00:35:45,853
I suspect you saw that Stop Work order
I left here yesterday.

397
00:35:46,019 --> 00:35:47,396
Oh yeah.

398
00:35:48,146 --> 00:35:50,319
I thought that was your handiwork.

399
00:35:51,566 --> 00:35:53,239
Did you understand it?

400
00:35:53,401 --> 00:35:55,995
Yeah, seemed pretty straightforward to me.

401
00:35:56,154 --> 00:35:59,124
Then why are you still building
without a set of approved plans?

402
00:36:00,450 --> 00:36:02,999
Uh... well, that's the thing.

403
00:36:03,161 --> 00:36:05,505
See, the plans aren't quite ready yet.

404
00:36:05,664 --> 00:36:08,042
And, well, the weather
is just about perfect.

405
00:36:08,208 --> 00:36:11,178
Jeffrey that's my grandson -

406
00:36:11,336 --> 00:36:13,509
he's been kind of buried
over at the refinery.

407
00:36:13,672 --> 00:36:16,016
One of the distilleries went down.

408
00:36:16,174 --> 00:36:18,768
Otherwise, he'd have had them done by now.

409
00:36:18,927 --> 00:36:21,047
But you weren't supposed to
start in the first place.

410
00:36:21,429 --> 00:36:23,682
I thought that was very clear.

411
00:36:23,848 --> 00:36:26,852
Well, you said you needed plans.
You didn't say anything

412
00:36:27,018 --> 00:36:29,362
about not starting to build
before you had them.

413
00:36:29,521 --> 00:36:32,195
Well, if that were the case,
what would be the point of them?

414
00:36:32,357 --> 00:36:34,735
Now you're talking.

415
00:36:34,901 --> 00:36:37,074
Those are my sentiments exactly.

416
00:36:37,237 --> 00:36:40,241
Mr. Morrison, no matter what you may think,
no matter what you may believe,

417
00:36:40,407 --> 00:36:42,125
a building permit is not optional.

418
00:36:43,284 --> 00:36:46,333
And just so you and I are perfectly clear,
that Stop Work order,

419
00:36:46,496 --> 00:36:48,376
that's a legally binding document.
Yeah, yeah.

420
00:36:51,459 --> 00:36:53,507
Ignore it at your peril.

421
00:37:04,556 --> 00:37:07,184
"This notice shall not be removed."

422
00:37:08,059 --> 00:37:09,857
Well?

423
00:37:10,895 --> 00:37:13,193
Well, you want me to tell
you what you want to hear

424
00:37:13,356 --> 00:37:15,779
or what I think you should do?

425
00:37:20,029 --> 00:37:23,078
When did we become a
country of bureaucrats?

426
00:37:23,241 --> 00:37:25,460
Look, save yourself the trouble.
It's not worth it.

427
00:37:25,618 --> 00:37:27,996
Just don't build until
Jeff finishes the plans.

428
00:37:28,163 --> 00:37:30,558
The whole thing will blow over.
You know they're asking me

429
00:37:30,582 --> 00:37:33,927
to pay another $300 just to
get the damn things approved.

430
00:37:34,085 --> 00:37:35,928
I imagine you won't go bankrupt.

431
00:37:37,213 --> 00:37:39,181
Open up your wallet,

432
00:37:39,340 --> 00:37:42,014
welcome the moths to the 21st century.

433
00:37:45,680 --> 00:37:47,523
Well, okay.

434
00:37:47,682 --> 00:37:51,607
If you're telling me
that's the way the world works, I'll do it.

435
00:37:52,687 --> 00:37:56,032
But I still feel I'm being asked to pay
for other people's mistakes.

436
00:37:56,900 --> 00:37:58,277
You better put this back up.

437
00:38:18,838 --> 00:38:21,136
Craig!

438
00:38:34,312 --> 00:38:36,314
Irene? What's wrong?

439
00:38:37,315 --> 00:38:39,113
Where were you?

440
00:38:39,275 --> 00:38:42,370
I called you, but you didn't answer.
I didn't know where you'd gone.

441
00:38:42,529 --> 00:38:44,782
Easy, easy.
I told you I was in the shop.

442
00:38:44,948 --> 00:38:47,997
How could I have forgotten that?
I'm sorry.

443
00:38:48,910 --> 00:38:50,503
I wasn't gone that long.

444
00:38:52,247 --> 00:38:53,749
Don't do that again.

445
00:38:55,166 --> 00:38:58,670
_ Okay. Okay.

446
00:39:28,283 --> 00:39:30,377
Well, you better be careful up there.

447
00:39:30,535 --> 00:39:34,210
You know, it's my feeling
that a man over 70

448
00:39:34,372 --> 00:39:37,216
should never be up on a
ladder in the first place.

449
00:39:38,167 --> 00:39:40,761
It's tempting fate.

450
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:44,675
Chester, don't you have someplace else
you're supposed to be?

451
00:39:47,468 --> 00:39:50,893
Aw, looks like you got company.

452
00:39:51,681 --> 00:39:54,480
Oh, Jesus, what now?

453
00:40:02,901 --> 00:40:04,949
Just stay out of it.

454
00:40:06,154 --> 00:40:07,154
Mr. Daigle.

455
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,078
I thought you and I were square.

456
00:40:10,241 --> 00:40:11,242
We were...

457
00:40:11,409 --> 00:40:13,787
until I did the framing inspection.

458
00:40:19,626 --> 00:40:24,553
It says here that the wood I'm using
to frame my house is not stamped?

459
00:40:25,214 --> 00:40:29,344
As noted in my report, there are a number
of building code violations.

460
00:40:29,510 --> 00:40:33,185
Most of them can be fixed, but I'm not sure
how you're going to remedy the fact

461
00:40:33,348 --> 00:40:36,101
that none of your wood was stamped
by a certified inspector.

462
00:40:36,267 --> 00:40:39,612
And your joists and trusses
were not engineer-approved.

463
00:40:45,109 --> 00:40:47,988
I realize you're probably
a very busy man, Mr. Daigle.

464
00:40:49,405 --> 00:40:51,999
Would you mind humoring me for a moment?

465
00:41:05,838 --> 00:41:07,215
In order to qualify for your job,

466
00:41:07,382 --> 00:41:11,933
did you have to have any
kind of expertise in lumber?

467
00:41:12,095 --> 00:41:14,939
Or at least a working
knowledge of the subject?

468
00:41:15,098 --> 00:41:18,318
Yes, of course.
Well then, in that case,

469
00:41:18,476 --> 00:41:21,605
huh... forgive me for stating the obvious
to a man of your training,

470
00:41:21,771 --> 00:41:25,821
but I'd hate to think
there was any kind of misunderstanding.

471
00:41:27,485 --> 00:41:30,455
All of the wood in this house
is old-growth spruce...

472
00:41:31,781 --> 00:41:35,251
that's been air-dried
for at least two years.

473
00:41:35,410 --> 00:41:38,630
I'd also like to point out
that there's not a single stud

474
00:41:38,788 --> 00:41:41,041
or sill plate that's warped or twisted.

475
00:41:42,667 --> 00:41:44,761
Go ahead, see for yourself.

476
00:41:44,919 --> 00:41:46,762
I believe you,
I looked at them myself...

477
00:41:46,921 --> 00:41:49,470
Okay, okay, so then we have
no argument there, then?

478
00:41:50,008 --> 00:41:53,137
Now as for the ﬂoor joists
and the roof trusses...

479
00:41:54,095 --> 00:41:56,518
I built them the way my father
taught me to build them.

480
00:41:58,766 --> 00:42:00,860
Do you have any idea what
he did for a living?

481
00:42:01,769 --> 00:42:04,192
No, I don't.
He was a shipwright.

482
00:42:05,148 --> 00:42:07,367
St. Martins was the third largest
shipbuilding centre

483
00:42:07,525 --> 00:42:09,448
on the Eastern Seaboard at that time.

484
00:42:10,111 --> 00:42:12,990
Over 500 sailing vessels
came out of those yards.

485
00:42:13,156 --> 00:42:16,660
So, like most of the men
who worked around here,

486
00:42:16,826 --> 00:42:19,079
he knew a thing or two about joinery.

487
00:42:19,704 --> 00:42:23,174
I'm sure he did.
But that's not the point, sir.

488
00:42:23,332 --> 00:42:28,213
Well, then, what exactly is the point, sir?

489
00:42:29,172 --> 00:42:33,177
To maintain safety standards,
we need to have wood that is stamped.

490
00:42:33,718 --> 00:42:36,392
And I'm sorry, but you
are not an exception.

491
00:42:36,554 --> 00:42:39,182
Have you not listened to a word I said?!

492
00:42:39,348 --> 00:42:40,725
Look around!

493
00:42:40,892 --> 00:42:44,317
Take all the time you
need to evaluate my work,

494
00:42:44,479 --> 00:42:47,904
and then you tell me whether or not
I'm building a sound house!

495
00:42:48,733 --> 00:42:51,202
I paid $400 for your permit,

496
00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,579
I went to the trouble of
having plans drawn up,

497
00:42:53,738 --> 00:42:57,663
and now you're telling me
that my material is sub-standard?! Ha!

498
00:42:59,410 --> 00:43:02,835
I may not be the most sophisticated man
in the world, Mr. Daigle,

499
00:43:02,997 --> 00:43:04,795
but there is one thing I do know,

500
00:43:04,957 --> 00:43:06,584
and that's lumber.

501
00:43:07,710 --> 00:43:11,135
Look, I don't have the time or patience
to argue with you,

502
00:43:11,297 --> 00:43:13,049
because there is zero leeway on this!

503
00:43:13,216 --> 00:43:16,015
Deal with the violations
or I will pull the permit

504
00:43:16,177 --> 00:43:18,020
and bulldoze this place.

505
00:43:25,103 --> 00:43:26,320
Is that a threat?

506
00:43:28,606 --> 00:43:31,405
No. It's the law.

507
00:43:42,036 --> 00:43:43,333
Not a word.

508
00:44:20,408 --> 00:44:21,500
Irene.

509
00:44:35,298 --> 00:44:36,515
Irene...

510
00:44:49,061 --> 00:44:50,108
Irene...

511
00:44:55,109 --> 00:44:56,361
Craig...

512
00:44:56,527 --> 00:44:59,531
Don't move. Don't move.

513
00:45:40,988 --> 00:45:42,786
I fell down the stairs.

514
00:45:44,575 --> 00:45:45,576
Yeah, you did.

515
00:45:47,954 --> 00:45:49,001
How are you feeling?

516
00:45:50,373 --> 00:45:51,590
Not so bad.

517
00:45:55,169 --> 00:45:56,386
Did I break anything?

518
00:45:58,881 --> 00:46:00,975
No.

519
00:46:05,596 --> 00:46:07,473
What's wrong?

520
00:46:08,933 --> 00:46:10,185
Nothing.

521
00:46:11,894 --> 00:46:13,567
Are you going to tell me?

522
00:46:19,527 --> 00:46:22,622
I'm just worried that our
luck's beginning to run out.

523
00:46:24,282 --> 00:46:27,957
No, I don't think so.

524
00:46:28,119 --> 00:46:31,498
Oh really?
How do you figure that?

525
00:46:32,498 --> 00:46:35,798
By all rights, I should have broken my hip.

526
00:46:36,877 --> 00:46:39,596
It's got to count for
something, doesn't it?

527
00:46:50,683 --> 00:46:51,809
What are you doing?

528
00:46:53,144 --> 00:46:56,239
Oh... Just in case you forget,
I put these gates up.

529
00:46:56,397 --> 00:47:00,118
Oh... I won't forget.

530
00:47:01,235 --> 00:47:02,657
Of course you won't.

531
00:47:02,820 --> 00:47:04,663
But... just in case.

532
00:47:04,822 --> 00:47:08,452
I don't think it's a good idea
for you to be on the stairs right now.

533
00:47:09,660 --> 00:47:13,961
Oh, and the bathroom is
outside, just for now.

534
00:47:20,046 --> 00:47:21,298
Where's the bathroom?

535
00:47:22,965 --> 00:47:24,342
On the porch.

536
00:47:24,508 --> 00:47:26,181
I love you.

537
00:47:29,805 --> 00:47:31,523
My handsome man...

538
00:47:31,682 --> 00:47:33,025
Where are you going?

539
00:47:33,184 --> 00:47:35,778
In town, for some groceries.

540
00:47:36,687 --> 00:47:38,127
I'm going to make us dinner tonight.

541
00:47:39,982 --> 00:47:42,906
Did I bump my head or lose my mind?
You're cooking?

542
00:47:43,694 --> 00:47:45,412
Well, if you can read, you can cook.

543
00:47:45,571 --> 00:47:48,120
That's what my father always used to say.

544
00:47:48,282 --> 00:47:52,583
Well, it's certainly taken you long enough
to test his theory out.

545
00:48:16,352 --> 00:48:17,353
Hey, Dad.

546
00:48:17,520 --> 00:48:19,898
Hi, Ruthie.
Where's Mom?

547
00:48:21,190 --> 00:48:22,282
She's taking a nap.

548
00:48:26,237 --> 00:48:29,912
Is that the, uh...
porta-potty from Linda's wedding?

549
00:48:32,118 --> 00:48:33,119
Yeah.

550
00:48:34,995 --> 00:48:36,463
It sets the porch off nicely.

551
00:48:38,332 --> 00:48:40,334
It, uh... goes well with the freezers.

552
00:48:41,419 --> 00:48:44,218
Well, that's one of the
advantages of growing old.

553
00:48:45,172 --> 00:48:48,517
You don't care so much about
keeping up appearances.

554
00:48:52,263 --> 00:48:53,731
Dad, I know what happened.

555
00:48:55,474 --> 00:48:57,522
My friend Jeannie's a
nurse at the hospital.

556
00:48:58,644 --> 00:49:00,066
You should have called.

557
00:49:00,855 --> 00:49:02,323
You know, I never did like Jeannie.

558
00:49:03,274 --> 00:49:06,869
As I remember, she was always sticking
her nose in other people's business.

559
00:49:08,612 --> 00:49:10,410
Would you have told us?

560
00:49:15,911 --> 00:49:17,163
No.

561
00:49:19,331 --> 00:49:20,332
Why not?!

562
00:49:20,499 --> 00:49:23,878
Well now, Ruthie, don't
take this personally,

563
00:49:24,587 --> 00:49:27,636
but I imagine that you and
your brothers and your sisters

564
00:49:27,798 --> 00:49:30,802
would have come to a different conclusion
about what to do next.

565
00:49:33,762 --> 00:49:38,188
Well, it's been obvious for a while now
that Mom is getting worse.

566
00:49:38,350 --> 00:49:39,727
You think I'm not aware of that?

567
00:49:40,978 --> 00:49:44,232
That's why I'm building the house.
But a house isn't going to fix it.

568
00:49:44,398 --> 00:49:46,821
No, but it will make everything
a lot more manageable.

569
00:49:46,984 --> 00:49:49,838
I've been looking into some programs
that I think would be good for her.

570
00:49:49,862 --> 00:49:51,034
No!

571
00:49:55,117 --> 00:49:56,597
It's not what your mother would want.

572
00:49:56,702 --> 00:49:58,420
You haven't even heard what I have to say!

573
00:50:00,456 --> 00:50:02,959
Besides, I'm not so sure she even knows
what she wants anymore.

574
00:50:07,213 --> 00:50:08,260
Yes, she does.

575
00:50:19,725 --> 00:50:22,478
Okay, then, if you're good
here I'll go up and see Morn.

576
00:50:26,732 --> 00:50:28,780
Bed's been moved to the living room.

577
00:50:52,424 --> 00:50:53,721
'Afternoon, Craig.

578
00:50:54,468 --> 00:50:57,813
Hello, Margaret.
Didn't expect to see you around here today.

579
00:50:57,972 --> 00:50:59,252
Well, I brought you some dinner.

580
00:51:00,641 --> 00:51:01,641
Who died?

581
00:51:02,977 --> 00:51:04,650
I heard about Irene.

582
00:51:07,898 --> 00:51:09,098
Yeah.
I'm going to say something.

583
00:51:09,149 --> 00:51:10,571
I want you to hear me out.

584
00:51:11,610 --> 00:51:15,331
Whether you like it or not, once a week,
I'm going to be dropping off a casserole.

585
00:51:15,489 --> 00:51:18,117
I want my dish back.
Do you understand?

586
00:51:18,284 --> 00:51:21,288
We're fine, Margaret.
Honestly.

587
00:51:22,496 --> 00:51:25,045
Matter of fact, I made us
a stew just last night.

588
00:51:26,041 --> 00:51:28,715
Julia Child must be rolling
over in her grave.

589
00:51:28,877 --> 00:51:31,380
You're getting a casserole!

590
00:51:31,547 --> 00:51:33,424
We don't need it.

591
00:51:33,591 --> 00:51:36,936
Uh-huh. Just like we didn't need
a winter's worth of beef

592
00:51:37,094 --> 00:51:39,472
and all the fuel tanks filled up in '73.

593
00:51:40,222 --> 00:51:42,065
I'm pretty sure we'd have lost the farm

594
00:51:42,224 --> 00:51:44,693
and ended up in St. John
if it weren't for you.

595
00:51:44,852 --> 00:51:47,212
Yeah, and Chester's been mad at me
because of it ever since.

596
00:51:48,105 --> 00:51:49,527
That's Chester's problem.

597
00:51:50,524 --> 00:51:52,151
Look, if the roles were reversed,

598
00:51:52,318 --> 00:51:54,992
Irene would do the same and you know it!

599
00:51:55,154 --> 00:51:58,784
Besides, I never liked you.
It's your wife I'd walk over hot coals for.

600
00:51:58,949 --> 00:52:01,577
Fair enough.

601
00:52:01,744 --> 00:52:05,169
Craig?
Craig, are you upstairs?

602
00:52:05,331 --> 00:52:09,962
Um, it's easier for me to keep track of her
when I'm out here.

603
00:52:11,420 --> 00:52:13,263
We all do what we have to do.

604
00:52:13,422 --> 00:52:15,925
I'll go in and see her, hmm?

605
00:52:25,643 --> 00:52:27,691
What if Dad has it under control?

606
00:52:27,853 --> 00:52:31,608
Are you completely delusional?
Ruth, Ruth, Ruth, I'm not the enemy here.

607
00:52:31,774 --> 00:52:34,197
Seriously, they're sleeping
in the living room

608
00:52:34,360 --> 00:52:36,579
and they're shitting on the front porch.

609
00:52:37,738 --> 00:52:40,662
Part of me just wants to go ahead
and hire a nurse without even asking.

610
00:52:40,824 --> 00:52:42,952
Yeah, and how long do you
think that would last?

611
00:52:43,118 --> 00:52:44,916
Then talk to him.
Will you just try and make him see

612
00:52:45,079 --> 00:52:49,129
that it's not working anymore?
I have. He's not budging.

613
00:52:54,463 --> 00:52:56,591
Why aren't we allowed to be a part of it?

614
00:52:58,175 --> 00:52:59,722
She's our mother.

615
00:52:59,885 --> 00:53:01,307
He's her husband.

616
00:53:03,263 --> 00:53:06,688
And what if, in spite of what you or I
think, he's making the right decisions?

617
00:53:06,850 --> 00:53:09,273
He's not.
You can't know that!

618
00:53:09,728 --> 00:53:13,858
You can't be certain that you or I
have a better alternative!

619
00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:22,328
You know, there is another
way of looking at this.

620
00:53:22,491 --> 00:53:24,914
Mm-hmm.
What's that?

621
00:53:25,077 --> 00:53:27,671
If he was asking us to
tuck him in at night,

622
00:53:27,830 --> 00:53:30,674
we'd be phoning Brock Reid
and telling him to warm up the hearse.

623
00:53:42,344 --> 00:53:44,722
And until then?

624
00:53:47,933 --> 00:53:50,903
Guess we hope he doesn't give
them both food poisoning.

625
00:54:02,865 --> 00:54:05,414
Are you awake?

626
00:54:07,119 --> 00:54:08,666
I am.

627
00:54:11,248 --> 00:54:13,501
Why is our bed in the living room?

628
00:54:17,713 --> 00:54:20,933
Because you fell down the stairs last week.

629
00:54:22,551 --> 00:54:24,724
Did I hurt myself?

630
00:54:24,887 --> 00:54:28,266
No, mm-mm.
Nothing serious.

631
00:54:30,267 --> 00:54:32,986
It's funny, I can't remember it at all.

632
00:54:38,859 --> 00:54:41,988
Well, you bumped your head.

633
00:54:43,030 --> 00:54:45,203
Probably has something to do with it.

634
00:54:45,365 --> 00:54:47,709
Still, I should remember, shouldn't I?

635
00:54:51,371 --> 00:54:52,497
I wouldn't worry about it.

636
00:54:54,082 --> 00:54:57,131
But I am worried.

637
00:55:06,136 --> 00:55:10,061
So you can't remember a
couple of things, so what?

638
00:55:11,475 --> 00:55:13,102
We're still here.

639
00:55:14,937 --> 00:55:16,689
We have each other.

640
00:55:17,731 --> 00:55:19,904
And isn't everything else a bonus?

641
00:55:21,193 --> 00:55:23,070
I hope so.

642
00:55:26,406 --> 00:55:28,875
You know what scares me?

643
00:55:29,910 --> 00:55:31,503
No, what?

644
00:55:32,120 --> 00:55:36,000
What if I forget everything?

645
00:55:40,838 --> 00:55:42,431
You'll still be my Irene.

646
00:55:49,221 --> 00:55:50,438
Promise?

647
00:55:52,933 --> 00:55:55,482
I've never broken a promise to you yet.

648
00:55:59,940 --> 00:56:01,783
But you almost did.

649
00:56:04,945 --> 00:56:07,539
With Bernice... what's-her-name?

650
00:56:08,740 --> 00:56:11,209
Punchard.

651
00:56:12,202 --> 00:56:14,375
Bernice Punchard.

652
00:56:14,538 --> 00:56:18,543
But my darling heart, she
was an extraordinary woman.

653
00:56:22,546 --> 00:56:24,594
How close did you two come?

654
00:56:26,383 --> 00:56:30,229
You know, jealousy has never been
one of your more endearing qualities.

655
00:56:30,387 --> 00:56:32,515
Jealousy has nothing to do with it.
Uh-huh.

656
00:56:33,390 --> 00:56:36,894
I would have left you so fast
if I ever caught you with another woman.

657
00:56:37,060 --> 00:56:38,903
So I've been told...

658
00:56:40,898 --> 00:56:43,697
So I've been told.

659
00:56:43,859 --> 00:56:46,328
Can we go to sleep now?

660
00:56:46,486 --> 00:56:47,612
I still will.

661
00:56:50,198 --> 00:56:51,245
What?

662
00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:54,453
Leave you if you cheat on me.

663
00:56:54,620 --> 00:56:56,839
Oh, Jesus.

664
00:56:58,415 --> 00:57:02,136
Okay, okay.
Now let it go.

665
00:57:04,129 --> 00:57:09,101
So whatever happened to...
lovely Bernice what's-her-name?

666
00:57:10,010 --> 00:57:11,432
Punchard.

667
00:57:12,721 --> 00:57:16,396
She died 30 years ago.

668
00:57:19,144 --> 00:57:20,236
That's terrible.

669
00:57:22,064 --> 00:57:23,987
Now I feel awful.

670
00:57:25,525 --> 00:57:26,868
So you should.

671
00:57:29,279 --> 00:57:31,373
You're a mean woman.

672
00:57:44,294 --> 00:57:46,968
And, in fact, Mr. Morrison's done

673
00:57:47,130 --> 00:57:49,224
exactly the opposite of what
the Commission is suggesting.

674
00:57:49,383 --> 00:57:52,478
He's tried to address every
single one of their concerns.

675
00:57:54,054 --> 00:57:57,228
He hired Mr. Folkin,
an accredited wood inspector.

676
00:57:57,391 --> 00:57:59,860
Found absolutely no fault with the lumber

677
00:58:00,018 --> 00:58:02,612
and stamped it as such on 30 June.

678
00:58:02,771 --> 00:58:06,821
He enlisted Jeff LeBlanc,
a certified engineer,

679
00:58:06,984 --> 00:58:09,783
to redraw the joists and truss specs.

680
00:58:09,945 --> 00:58:12,539
And Mr. Morrison's already added
the reinforcements

681
00:58:12,698 --> 00:58:14,917
to comply with the
Commission's recommendations.

682
00:58:15,075 --> 00:58:17,248
These are the photos of those improvements.

683
00:58:17,411 --> 00:58:20,961
Additionally,
Mr. Raymond Debley -

684
00:58:21,123 --> 00:58:22,643
you'll recognize that name, Mr. Daigle

685
00:58:22,708 --> 00:58:25,382
one of the most successful
and respected builders

686
00:58:25,544 --> 00:58:29,139
in New Brunswick inspected
the house on 10 July

687
00:58:29,297 --> 00:58:31,846
and those are his findings.

688
00:58:32,009 --> 00:58:35,604
As you'll read, it's quite a glowing report
of Mr. Morrison's construction.

689
00:58:39,057 --> 00:58:40,434
Is that all, Mr. Fulton?

690
00:58:41,393 --> 00:58:42,393
Yeah...

691
00:58:44,271 --> 00:58:46,148
Except, sorry, uh...

692
00:58:46,314 --> 00:58:48,834
You know, it's worth remembering
that the National Building code

693
00:58:48,942 --> 00:58:53,539
is not a set of rules,
it's a set of standards.

694
00:58:53,697 --> 00:58:57,543
And it's our belief that Mr. Morrison's
not only met those standards, but...

695
00:58:58,535 --> 00:59:00,537
in most cases, he's exceeded them.

696
00:59:09,921 --> 00:59:12,424
It is the opinion of the
Building Department

697
00:59:12,591 --> 00:59:14,810
that Mr. Morrison
has still not satisfied

698
00:59:14,968 --> 00:59:17,391
the concerns raised by the
inspection of his house.

699
00:59:20,098 --> 00:59:22,726
Therefore, until such time
that a workable solution

700
00:59:22,893 --> 00:59:26,193
to all 26 violations has been accepted,

701
00:59:26,354 --> 00:59:29,073
the Stop Work order is still in effect.

702
00:59:31,902 --> 00:59:34,200
Make no mistake, Mr. Morrison,

703
00:59:34,362 --> 00:59:37,161
violating a Stop Work order
is a serious of fence

704
00:59:37,324 --> 00:59:39,998
and will force us to take
further legal action.

705
00:59:43,246 --> 00:59:44,589
Do you understand?

706
00:59:47,375 --> 00:59:49,878
Jesus, what a mess.

707
00:59:51,463 --> 00:59:53,261
You ever wonder if their
minds are already made up?

708
00:59:53,423 --> 00:59:56,893
That no matter what we propose,
the answer will still be the same?

709
00:59:57,052 --> 01:00:01,523
Well... they just have to come around,
that's all.

710
01:00:03,308 --> 01:00:05,276
Nothing else makes any sense.

711
01:00:07,479 --> 01:00:11,859
I got enough work in the shop
what with the doors and the trim and all.

712
01:00:12,776 --> 01:00:15,450
I suppose I could keep going
for at least a couple of weeks.

713
01:00:15,612 --> 01:00:16,738
Sure.

714
01:00:17,823 --> 01:00:22,294
Hopefully, by then,
the wind will have shifted in our favour.

715
01:00:33,922 --> 01:00:39,019
At 11,542.58,
a fourteen-month low.

716
01:00:39,177 --> 01:00:42,431
In the energy sector, crude is down 13%

717
01:00:42,597 --> 01:00:44,395
from just six weeks ago.
You hear that?

718
01:00:46,393 --> 01:00:48,316
I sure hope the refinery doesn't shut down.

719
01:00:49,896 --> 01:00:52,319
Jeff's carrying far too much
debt for that to happen.

720
01:00:52,482 --> 01:00:54,860
And the third month in a row
that auto sales

721
01:00:55,026 --> 01:00:56,573
are below last year's levels

722
01:00:56,736 --> 01:00:59,785
all point to the possibility
of a double-dip recession

723
01:00:59,948 --> 01:01:01,388
triggered largely by the subprime...

724
01:01:16,590 --> 01:01:18,263
Irene?

725
01:01:28,560 --> 01:01:29,686
Irene?

726
01:01:31,938 --> 01:01:32,938
Irene?!

727
01:01:33,815 --> 01:01:36,113
Irene?

728
01:01:39,154 --> 01:01:40,246
Irene?

729
01:01:53,543 --> 01:01:56,763
Hey, Dana, did you happen to see Irene
out and about today?

730
01:01:56,922 --> 01:02:00,142
No, I can't say that I have.
Huh...

731
01:02:38,755 --> 01:02:41,224
I don't think I've seen
you smoke in 50 years.

732
01:02:43,093 --> 01:02:44,345
You haven't?

733
01:02:45,470 --> 01:02:46,767
No.

734
01:02:49,057 --> 01:02:50,775
Where'd you get the cigarettes?

735
01:02:54,479 --> 01:02:55,526
I don't know.

736
01:02:57,065 --> 01:02:58,066
Isn't that funny?

737
01:03:02,445 --> 01:03:03,617
I was worried about you.

738
01:03:05,198 --> 01:03:07,951
I went back to the house
and you weren't there.

739
01:03:09,286 --> 01:03:11,004
I've been looking for you for hours.

740
01:03:11,621 --> 01:03:12,793
I'm sorry.

741
01:03:14,082 --> 01:03:16,505
Didn't I tell you I was
going out for a walk?

742
01:03:20,463 --> 01:03:22,591
We should come down to
the beach more often.

743
01:03:24,509 --> 01:03:25,806
C'est beau.

744
01:03:28,596 --> 01:03:31,065
Yeah, maybe we should.

745
01:03:37,814 --> 01:03:38,815
Craig, look.

746
01:03:42,736 --> 01:03:44,659
Someone's building a new house.

747
01:03:44,821 --> 01:03:47,495
Oh, they picked a nice spot for it.

748
01:03:47,657 --> 01:03:50,831
Oh, they'll have a
beautiful view of the bay.

749
01:03:52,579 --> 01:03:54,673
Something I wish we'd have had.

750
01:04:32,869 --> 01:04:33,870
Irene.

751
01:04:35,580 --> 01:04:37,708
Irene.
Mm?

752
01:04:37,874 --> 01:04:40,923
I'm sorry, honey, I can't
let you stay out here.

753
01:04:42,253 --> 01:04:45,006
It's... it's too cold.
My legs hurt.

754
01:05:03,066 --> 01:05:04,739
Come on, come on.

755
01:05:11,324 --> 01:05:12,541
Oh!
I gotcha.

756
01:05:24,129 --> 01:05:27,599
No. No. I'm staying.
I'm staying out here.

757
01:05:27,757 --> 01:05:29,100
Irene, come on.

758
01:05:29,259 --> 01:05:31,978
Those same legs got you
into town just fine today.

759
01:05:32,137 --> 01:05:36,608
No! No! No! No!

760
01:05:36,766 --> 01:05:40,361
No! No! No!

761
01:05:42,063 --> 01:05:44,737
I'm sleeping... right here.

762
01:05:44,899 --> 01:05:48,278
Oh, Jesus, really?! Now?!

763
01:05:51,739 --> 01:05:55,664
You can't do that and you know it.
Now come on. Come on, let's go.

764
01:05:55,827 --> 01:05:58,296
Get your damn hands off me!

765
01:05:59,122 --> 01:06:01,671
Irene, please.

766
01:06:01,833 --> 01:06:05,258
Ow! Goddammit!
That hurt!

767
01:06:05,420 --> 01:06:07,138
Come on! Now, come on!

768
01:06:08,798 --> 01:06:11,642
Hey! Let me go!
No. Come on.

769
01:06:12,886 --> 01:06:15,355
Come on. No.
Let me go!

770
01:06:15,513 --> 01:06:17,811
No! No!

771
01:06:44,417 --> 01:06:45,669
Oh!

772
01:07:01,476 --> 01:07:03,353
Every night I would make sure

773
01:07:03,520 --> 01:07:05,022
there was nothing on the floor.

774
01:07:07,690 --> 01:07:09,192
I forget once.

775
01:07:11,611 --> 01:07:14,080
She trips over her damn shoe.

776
01:07:14,239 --> 01:07:16,458
Hey, Dad, could have been anything.

777
01:07:18,409 --> 01:07:19,877
I was mad at her.

778
01:07:22,038 --> 01:07:23,290
We had a fight.

779
01:07:23,790 --> 01:07:26,839
She wanted to sleep out on the front lawn,
I wouldn't let her.

780
01:07:31,631 --> 01:07:33,474
I dragged her into the house.

781
01:07:37,095 --> 01:07:39,974
I mean, you had to get her inside.
No, I didn't.

782
01:07:40,974 --> 01:07:42,066
Not like that.

783
01:07:43,393 --> 01:07:47,569
You don't... drag someone.

784
01:08:05,498 --> 01:08:07,091
Roses?

785
01:08:10,461 --> 01:08:12,429
They're from an admirer.

786
01:08:19,721 --> 01:08:24,818
You never bought me roses, never before.

787
01:08:25,727 --> 01:08:27,855
You never broke your hip before.

788
01:08:29,939 --> 01:08:31,236
I broke my hip?

789
01:08:33,109 --> 01:08:34,110
How?

790
01:08:36,821 --> 01:08:38,869
Because your husband is a fool.

791
01:08:57,133 --> 01:08:58,976
The surgery went very well.

792
01:08:59,135 --> 01:09:00,728
So when can she come home?

793
01:09:00,887 --> 01:09:02,981
We'll keep her here for a few more days,

794
01:09:03,139 --> 01:09:07,610
then she'll be moved to the rehab wing
for four to six weeks of therapy.

795
01:09:08,561 --> 01:09:10,404
Four to six weeks?

796
01:09:12,607 --> 01:09:17,864
Your son and daughter have told me
a bit about your situation.

797
01:09:19,113 --> 01:09:23,789
Mr. Morrison, your wife
will require some follow-up therapy.

798
01:09:24,327 --> 01:09:25,624
And some home care.

799
01:09:26,329 --> 01:09:29,299
Now, given her physical
and mental health, I...

800
01:09:30,625 --> 01:09:33,003
I don't foresee a time when
it would stop altogether.

801
01:09:43,012 --> 01:09:44,138
. Okay-

802
01:09:47,350 --> 01:09:48,852
You comfortable with that, Dad?

803
01:09:50,019 --> 01:09:52,397
Your mother and I have
been together 61 years.

804
01:09:54,565 --> 01:09:57,819
Never spent more than a
handful of nights apart.

805
01:09:59,904 --> 01:10:01,030
But...

806
01:10:02,824 --> 01:10:04,371
if that's the way it's got to be...

807
01:10:06,953 --> 01:10:08,421
then that's the way it is.

808
01:10:39,235 --> 01:10:42,660
I realize you and I son' of
got off on the wrong foot...

809
01:10:45,241 --> 01:10:46,413
but, uh...

810
01:10:48,077 --> 01:10:50,079
this doesn't have to get personal.

811
01:10:55,251 --> 01:10:56,298
I apologize.

812
01:10:57,462 --> 01:10:59,760
I... I didn't mean any disrespect.

813
01:10:59,922 --> 01:11:04,302
You have certain... violations
against your house.

814
01:11:06,596 --> 01:11:10,476
Could you please tell me
what to do and I'll do it.

815
01:11:10,641 --> 01:11:14,612
Mr. Morrison, this office
does not have the resources to spend

816
01:11:14,771 --> 01:11:17,866
to teach people the
fundamentals of how to build.

817
01:11:18,024 --> 01:11:22,495
They either know how to do it
or they hire someone who does.

818
01:11:27,867 --> 01:11:30,245
You've seen my report.
You know what needs to be done.

819
01:11:32,705 --> 01:11:34,298
Yes, I do.

820
01:12:15,331 --> 01:12:17,584
Are you sleeping, okay?

821
01:12:17,750 --> 01:12:19,752
No. You?

822
01:12:20,586 --> 01:12:22,634
No. Not really.

823
01:12:24,465 --> 01:12:28,220
Remember when we met?

824
01:12:28,970 --> 01:12:30,347
Yes, of course.

825
01:12:31,764 --> 01:12:33,391
You were drunk.

826
01:12:33,558 --> 01:12:37,529
No, not drunk, tipsy.

827
01:12:37,687 --> 01:12:40,156
You threw up on my sister, Pierrette.

828
01:12:40,314 --> 01:12:43,067
I ate something that didn't agree with me.

829
01:12:44,193 --> 01:12:45,740
Flask of whiskey is what you ate.

830
01:12:46,863 --> 01:12:48,206
Oh...

831
01:12:48,364 --> 01:12:49,365
Yeah.

832
01:12:49,949 --> 01:12:53,328
She and I never did get back
on solid ground after that.

833
01:12:53,494 --> 01:12:56,168
My sister, Pierrette, was an elephant

834
01:12:56,330 --> 01:12:59,379
when it came to remembering
slights against her.

835
01:13:01,669 --> 01:13:04,639
I don't blame her.
It's a beautiful dress you ruined.

836
01:13:04,797 --> 01:13:07,641
She missed the rest of the dance...

837
01:13:07,800 --> 01:13:09,802
and her best friend ended up

838
01:13:09,969 --> 01:13:13,644
marrying the boy she was
hoping to enchant that night.

839
01:13:13,806 --> 01:13:17,686
Is that why she was a spinster?
Mm-hmm. 'Cause you threw up on her.

840
01:13:19,395 --> 01:13:23,070
Gee... I'd hate me too.

841
01:13:26,027 --> 01:13:29,076
What do you think would have happened to us
if we'd never met?

842
01:13:30,615 --> 01:13:33,539
Or if I'd thrown up on you instead?

843
01:13:34,493 --> 01:13:37,212
Oh, we probably would
have found someone else.

844
01:13:38,831 --> 01:13:40,754
You think?

845
01:13:41,542 --> 01:13:43,135
* No!

846
01:13:44,921 --> 01:13:47,845
But the law's the law, am I right?
I mean, that's...

847
01:13:49,634 --> 01:13:51,261
Oh, here he is now.

848
01:13:57,683 --> 01:14:00,152
You're treading in dangerous
waters, my friend.

849
01:14:02,063 --> 01:14:05,112
'Morning, Owen, Marty.

850
01:14:05,274 --> 01:14:06,651
What are you on about, Chester?

851
01:14:07,610 --> 01:14:10,705
I couldn't help noticing you
started building again.

852
01:14:10,863 --> 01:14:14,367
Seems pretty clear
you're asking for a whole heap of trouble.

853
01:14:15,284 --> 01:14:18,083
Well, thanks for the legal advice, Chester.

854
01:14:18,245 --> 01:14:20,498
You charge by the hour?

855
01:14:20,665 --> 01:14:23,418
The Building Department
bulldozed a house in Upperton

856
01:14:23,584 --> 01:14:26,178
last month for pretty
much the same damn thing!

857
01:14:26,337 --> 01:14:31,639
Owning 2,000 acres doesn't put
you above the law, Craig.

858
01:14:31,801 --> 01:14:33,678
Goddammit, Chester,

859
01:14:33,844 --> 01:14:36,222
that's got nothing to do with it.

860
01:14:37,682 --> 01:14:39,184
For once in your life,

861
01:14:39,350 --> 01:14:41,478
why don't you mind your
own goddamn business?

862
01:15:07,128 --> 01:15:08,596
Anybody in there?

863
01:15:08,754 --> 01:15:10,506
Hold on, I'll be with you in a second.

864
01:15:16,512 --> 01:15:18,435
Are you Mr. G. Craig Morrison?

865
01:15:18,597 --> 01:15:20,599
I am.
You've been served.

866
01:15:53,299 --> 01:15:55,973
Do you remember when I built
our dining room table?

867
01:15:58,179 --> 01:16:00,932
We'd been using a sawhorse
and planks for so many years, I...

868
01:16:02,016 --> 01:16:06,271
I had all but given up on
ever getting a proper one.

869
01:16:06,437 --> 01:16:08,155
My father helped me mill the boards.

870
01:16:09,523 --> 01:16:12,902
I put 12 coats of finish on that table.

871
01:16:13,486 --> 01:16:16,990
Which still didn't help
when Ruth spilt ink on it.

872
01:16:18,866 --> 01:16:20,960
Oh, I wasn't that upset.

873
01:16:21,118 --> 01:16:25,464
Ha! You were very table-proud back then.

874
01:16:25,623 --> 01:16:29,548
No.
It's a very nice piece of carpentry.

875
01:16:30,920 --> 01:16:33,844
<i>Do you know how much</i> a <i>harvest table
would have cost you in</i> a <i>store?</i>

876
01:16:37,760 --> 01:16:39,433
The first few years...

877
01:16:40,096 --> 01:16:42,019
<i>every nick that table absorbed...</i>

878
01:16:43,390 --> 01:16:45,267
I took it personally.

879
01:16:45,434 --> 01:16:46,606
It's all I could see.

880
01:16:47,978 --> 01:16:51,232
The dent from a fork, scratch
from a skate blade...

881
01:16:53,025 --> 01:16:57,701
the ghost of someone's handwriting
pressed through a single piece of paper.

882
01:16:58,239 --> 01:17:00,367
I forgot about that.

883
01:17:01,367 --> 01:17:03,745
I mean, how hard can it
be for a kid to remember

884
01:17:03,911 --> 01:17:06,630
to put a few extra sheets
under their homework?

885
01:17:10,334 --> 01:17:15,511
Well, there were a lot of times I regretted
not making that table out of oak.

886
01:17:17,633 --> 01:17:21,103
But... as the years went by

887
01:17:21,262 --> 01:17:24,641
and... the scars added up...

888
01:17:26,642 --> 01:17:29,395
the imperfections turned that
table into something else.

889
01:17:35,276 --> 01:17:37,074
That's the thing about pine...

890
01:17:42,658 --> 01:17:44,581
holds a lot of memories.

891
01:18:09,602 --> 01:18:11,525
'Morning, Craig.
Gary...

892
01:18:12,938 --> 01:18:16,238
Seems like you've been busy.
That I have.

893
01:18:16,775 --> 01:18:21,030
Tried to call,
but there was... no answer.

894
01:18:21,197 --> 01:18:23,541
Did they serve you yesterday?
Oh yeah.

895
01:18:24,700 --> 01:18:26,794
Seems like there's a first
time for everything.

896
01:18:27,411 --> 01:18:30,961
You understand you're going to have
to appear in court on Tuesday?

897
01:18:31,707 --> 01:18:32,924
I certainly do.

898
01:18:34,877 --> 01:18:36,754
Craig, they're remarkably mad at you.

899
01:18:38,714 --> 01:18:42,594
If we're going to have a chance of winning,
you've got to stop building.

900
01:18:48,599 --> 01:18:50,442
Irene broke her hip, Gary.

901
01:18:50,935 --> 01:18:54,189
What?
She'll have to get around with a walker.

902
01:18:56,482 --> 01:18:59,110
Our old house doesn't work anymore.

903
01:18:59,735 --> 01:19:01,203
I'm sorry.

904
01:19:02,947 --> 01:19:05,120
Why didn't you tell me you started again?

905
01:19:06,992 --> 01:19:08,369
Well, I...

906
01:19:09,328 --> 01:19:12,377
I just didn't want to risk
you talking me out of it,

907
01:19:12,539 --> 01:19:14,633
convincing me there was a better way.

908
01:19:14,792 --> 01:19:16,544
No, I couldn't convince you.

909
01:19:16,710 --> 01:19:19,964
Oh, at that point, yeah,
maybe you could have.

910
01:19:20,881 --> 01:19:24,431
At least now, whatever happens,

911
01:19:24,593 --> 01:19:27,312
it'll be finished by the time
lrene's ready to come home.

912
01:19:31,809 --> 01:19:33,311
Not hungry?

913
01:19:34,561 --> 01:19:35,778
No.

914
01:19:36,772 --> 01:19:39,116
Don't seem to have much of
an appetite these days.

915
01:19:44,321 --> 01:19:46,619
I should get going.

916
01:19:46,782 --> 01:19:49,911
I've got to get to the hospital
before visiting hours are over.

917
01:19:52,538 --> 01:19:54,699
You look beat, Dad.
Why don't you take the night off?

918
01:19:57,418 --> 01:19:59,796
No, she's expecting me.

919
01:20:08,595 --> 01:20:09,596
I'll get it.

920
01:20:17,062 --> 01:20:18,234
Hello.

921
01:20:20,774 --> 01:20:23,152
Uh, just a second.

922
01:20:34,663 --> 01:20:36,256
Hello?

923
01:20:39,460 --> 01:20:41,053
Speaking.

924
01:20:41,211 --> 01:20:44,681
My name is Marty Klinkenberg,
with the Telegraph Journal.

925
01:20:50,804 --> 01:20:53,683
I already have a subscription
to your newspaper.

926
01:20:53,849 --> 01:20:55,817
Uh, no, it's not about that.

927
01:20:55,976 --> 01:20:59,697
I'm a reporter and I heard
you might be having a few problems

928
01:20:59,855 --> 01:21:01,607
with the Building Department.

929
01:21:01,774 --> 01:21:05,028
Well, that would be a gross understatement.

930
01:21:06,236 --> 01:21:09,035
Say, how did you ever hear
about a case like mine, anyway?

931
01:21:09,990 --> 01:21:12,869
Must seem like small
potatoes to most people.

932
01:21:13,035 --> 01:21:14,035
It's funny.

933
01:21:14,161 --> 01:21:17,540
One of your neighbours, Chester Jones,
started phoning me about two weeks ago.

934
01:21:17,706 --> 01:21:20,004
He kept calling till I had no choice

935
01:21:20,167 --> 01:21:22,886
but to look into the matter
just to get him off my back.

936
01:21:24,630 --> 01:21:26,632
Chester?
Chester Jones?

937
01:21:26,799 --> 01:21:28,972
Are you sure?
Yeah.

938
01:21:29,134 --> 01:21:31,432
Do you have time for a few questions?

939
01:21:35,307 --> 01:21:36,354
Yeah.

940
01:21:37,851 --> 01:21:39,023
Yeah, sure.

941
01:22:10,926 --> 01:22:13,224
" Dad?
" Huh?

942
01:22:14,388 --> 01:22:15,560
Are you all right?

943
01:22:40,914 --> 01:22:42,632
How are you feeling?
Oh...

944
01:22:43,500 --> 01:22:44,797
everything aches.

945
01:22:47,463 --> 01:22:50,512
This may be the start of my slow decline.

946
01:22:51,383 --> 01:22:52,509
Well, it's about time.

947
01:22:52,676 --> 01:22:55,350
Can I get you anything?

948
01:22:58,390 --> 01:22:59,983
I need to tell you something.

949
01:23:05,397 --> 01:23:06,740
All right.

950
01:23:09,902 --> 01:23:14,453
The Babe Ruth baseball is in the
kitchen cupboard in an old flour tin.

951
01:23:18,535 --> 01:23:19,627
Uh...

952
01:23:20,704 --> 01:23:22,752
Yeah, I already knew that.

953
01:23:24,875 --> 01:23:26,377
Mom told us.

954
01:23:28,670 --> 01:23:29,842
Jesus.

955
01:23:31,006 --> 01:23:33,225
Your mother never could keep a secret.

956
01:23:34,635 --> 01:23:37,980
I got a call last year.

957
01:23:39,681 --> 01:23:42,730
A guy offered me $40,000 for that ball.

958
01:23:43,727 --> 01:23:44,853
Can you imagine?

959
01:23:46,146 --> 01:23:48,945
$40,000 for a baseball.

960
01:23:51,401 --> 01:23:54,075
All these years, were you
ever tempted to sell it?

961
01:23:55,489 --> 01:23:56,490
Mm, sure.

962
01:23:58,158 --> 01:24:01,002
The thought crossed my mind once or twice.

963
01:24:02,287 --> 01:24:04,085
So why didn't you?

964
01:24:05,624 --> 01:24:08,343
I sleep better knowing it's still there...

965
01:24:09,461 --> 01:24:12,556
in case I ever get myself
in a really tight squeeze.

966
01:24:23,850 --> 01:24:28,230
Well, I tried to get them to postpone,
but... they're not budging.

967
01:24:29,690 --> 01:24:31,658
Have you seen the Telegraph-Journal
yet today?

968
01:24:32,568 --> 01:24:34,912
Uh, no, no. Why?

969
01:24:35,070 --> 01:24:37,414
Well, your father made the front page.

970
01:24:47,291 --> 01:24:48,759
Hi.

971
01:24:50,961 --> 01:24:52,508
I've been looking for you.

972
01:24:52,671 --> 01:24:54,218
Have you?

973
01:24:56,216 --> 01:24:57,638
Where were you?

974
01:24:58,468 --> 01:25:00,345
I came this morning.

975
01:25:00,512 --> 01:25:02,731
Wasn't supposed to be back till tonight.

976
01:25:02,889 --> 01:25:05,017
Came from where?

977
01:25:05,183 --> 01:25:06,651
The house.

978
01:25:08,228 --> 01:25:10,481
What house?

979
01:25:15,110 --> 01:25:16,327
Hmm...

980
01:25:17,904 --> 01:25:18,905
It doesn't matter.

981
01:25:23,243 --> 01:25:24,870
How was your day?

982
01:25:28,123 --> 01:25:29,841
Fine.

983
01:25:44,348 --> 01:25:45,349
Hello?

984
01:25:46,808 --> 01:25:48,151
Chester died.

985
01:25:50,771 --> 01:25:52,023
Oh...

986
01:25:58,153 --> 01:25:59,200
Oh, Margaret...

987
01:26:01,156 --> 01:26:02,408
I'm so sorry.

988
01:26:12,376 --> 01:26:13,923
Are you praying?

989
01:26:16,546 --> 01:26:18,173
I Trying to.

990
01:26:19,174 --> 01:26:22,178
Since when did you get religion?

991
01:26:24,429 --> 01:26:25,976
I'm not sure I have yet,

992
01:26:27,599 --> 01:26:30,193
but I figure this might be a
good time to hedge my bets.

993
01:26:32,187 --> 01:26:33,530
For what?

994
01:26:37,609 --> 01:26:38,861
I don't know.

995
01:26:40,028 --> 01:26:42,122
A miracle, I suppose.

996
01:26:45,617 --> 01:26:47,665
I've... I've missed you.

997
01:26:51,039 --> 01:26:52,211
I miss you too.

998
01:26:56,878 --> 01:26:58,050
How you doing?

999
01:27:01,425 --> 01:27:02,642
I've been better.

1000
01:27:09,599 --> 01:27:13,649
Yeah... me too.

1001
01:27:55,270 --> 01:27:56,396
Hey, Dad.

1002
01:27:56,563 --> 01:27:58,361
Ruthie.

1003
01:28:02,068 --> 01:28:05,242
I, uh... stopped by
the new house last night.

1004
01:28:12,871 --> 01:28:14,794
You and Morn are going to like it there.

1005
01:28:17,709 --> 01:28:18,926
You think?

1006
01:28:20,796 --> 01:28:23,925
Yeah. Definitely.

1007
01:28:24,716 --> 01:28:26,138
Hmm.

1008
01:28:29,095 --> 01:28:30,768
You planned it out well.

1009
01:28:31,932 --> 01:28:32,933
Thanks.

1010
01:28:35,685 --> 01:28:38,234
I sure hope so.

1011
01:28:59,626 --> 01:29:01,674
Gary, I want to ask you something.

1012
01:29:02,337 --> 01:29:05,181
How long have you been my lawyer?

1013
01:29:06,716 --> 01:29:08,593
Twenty-six and one half years.

1014
01:29:08,760 --> 01:29:12,014
And would it be fair to say
that you've done as much work for me

1015
01:29:12,180 --> 01:29:14,558
on this case as you have in
all those years combined?

1016
01:29:14,724 --> 01:29:17,068
Probably, yeah. More, maybe.

1017
01:29:17,227 --> 01:29:20,356
So, uh... why haven't I gotten a bill yet?

1018
01:29:21,064 --> 01:29:22,611
Well, that's a good question.

1019
01:29:22,774 --> 01:29:25,277
Since you know, I make it a practice
never to work for free,

1020
01:29:25,443 --> 01:29:30,825
but... Craig, I've misread
this situation consistently,

1021
01:29:30,991 --> 01:29:34,040
given you the wrong advice throughout.

1022
01:29:34,202 --> 01:29:37,206
This whole mess may be
just as much my fault as it is yours.

1023
01:29:37,914 --> 01:29:40,034
It doesn't sit right to have
you pay for my mistakes.

1024
01:29:41,126 --> 01:29:43,049
Do you really think, if you
hadn't made those mistakes,

1025
01:29:43,211 --> 01:29:45,305
things would have turned out differently?

1026
01:29:46,965 --> 01:29:48,888
No.
Me neither.

1027
01:29:51,761 --> 01:29:54,264
Look, if it's all the same to you,

1028
01:29:54,431 --> 01:30:00,234
once you finish your arguments,
do you think I could say a few words?

1029
01:30:00,395 --> 01:30:01,897
Losing faith in me?

1030
01:30:02,063 --> 01:30:03,906
It's too late now.

1031
01:30:04,065 --> 01:30:08,411
No, there's just some things
I'd like to get off my chest, win or lose.

1032
01:30:09,404 --> 01:30:10,747
What's this?

1033
01:30:11,448 --> 01:30:15,328
It's a deed to five acres of land.

1034
01:30:16,369 --> 01:30:20,374
Just about the nicest that I have,
not counting my own, of course.

1035
01:30:20,540 --> 01:30:22,292
It's got my name on it. Why?

1036
01:30:23,335 --> 01:30:25,212
" Why not?

1037
01:30:27,756 --> 01:30:29,850
Are you a baseball fan, Your Honour?

1038
01:30:34,054 --> 01:30:35,271
Excuse me?

1039
01:30:36,181 --> 01:30:38,275
I've been one all my life.

1040
01:30:38,391 --> 01:30:41,190
I've always appreciated how
you could compare a player

1041
01:30:41,353 --> 01:30:44,857
in one era to a player from another,

1042
01:30:46,024 --> 01:30:48,994
how what Babe Ruth was able to accomplish

1043
01:30:49,152 --> 01:30:54,124
is just as understandable
and awesome right now

1044
01:30:54,282 --> 01:30:56,284
as it was back in the day.

1045
01:30:57,619 --> 01:31:01,294
How the traditions of the game
have been maintained through the years.

1046
01:31:02,374 --> 01:31:06,629
There's a... kind of religion of the rules.

1047
01:31:08,421 --> 01:31:11,891
And, just like in baseball,

1048
01:31:12,050 --> 01:31:14,894
I've always believed in the
tradition of building...

1049
01:31:16,471 --> 01:31:18,314
and the religion of rules.

1050
01:31:22,477 --> 01:31:25,697
My father taught me how to
see lumber in a living tree.

1051
01:31:27,107 --> 01:31:31,829
Truth in a wall that was plumb
or a corner that was square.

1052
01:31:37,117 --> 01:31:39,336
I don't mean to put myself above the law,

1053
01:31:41,204 --> 01:31:43,502
and I never have...

1054
01:31:45,125 --> 01:31:46,502
until now.

1055
01:31:49,587 --> 01:31:51,510
I'm too old for this nonsense.

1056
01:31:53,466 --> 01:31:55,139
My house is sound.

1057
01:31:57,303 --> 01:32:00,523
My wife is due to get out of the hospital
next week, and, uh...

1058
01:32:01,975 --> 01:32:03,352
options are limited.

1059
01:32:05,603 --> 01:32:07,276
We're going to move into our house.

1060
01:32:09,566 --> 01:32:10,567
So...

1061
01:32:12,485 --> 01:32:16,160
it looks like... either
I'm going to jail...

1062
01:32:18,324 --> 01:32:19,951
or I'm going home.

1063
01:32:22,912 --> 01:32:27,167
Either way, I can sleep
with a clear conscience.

1064
01:32:39,554 --> 01:32:42,307
And after the storm

1065
01:32:45,268 --> 01:32:48,397
I run and run as the rains come

1066
01:32:48,563 --> 01:32:50,986
And I look up

1067
01:32:52,192 --> 01:32:54,411
I look up

1068
01:32:55,737 --> 01:33:00,584
On my knees and out of luck I look up

1069
01:33:03,203 --> 01:33:07,003
Night has always pushed up day

1070
01:33:09,375 --> 01:33:12,720
You must know life to see decay

1071
01:33:12,879 --> 01:33:15,428
But I won't rot

1072
01:33:16,883 --> 01:33:18,601
I won't rot

1073
01:33:19,886 --> 01:33:22,890
Not this mind and not this heart

1074
01:33:23,056 --> 01:33:25,229
I won't rot

1075
01:33:27,769 --> 01:33:31,023
And I took you by the hand

1076
01:33:32,440 --> 01:33:34,317
<i>And we stood tall</i>

1077
01:33:35,944 --> 01:33:39,039
And remembered our own land

1078
01:33:40,281 --> 01:33:42,409
What we lived for

1079
01:33:47,747 --> 01:33:51,047
And there will come a time you'll see

1080
01:33:51,960 --> 01:33:53,382
With no more tears

1081
01:33:53,545 --> 01:33:57,846
<i>And love will not break your heart</i>

1082
01:33:58,007 --> 01:33:59,930
And dismiss your fears

1083
01:34:00,093 --> 01:34:02,471
Get over your hill

1084
01:34:02,637 --> 01:34:05,811
And see what you find there

1085
01:34:05,974 --> 01:34:08,818
<i>With grace in your heart</i>

1086
01:34:08,977 --> 01:34:12,823
And ﬂowers in your hair

1087
01:34:26,703 --> 01:34:29,297
And I won't die alone

1088
01:34:30,582 --> 01:34:32,505
And be left there

1089
01:34:33,960 --> 01:34:37,009
Well I guess I'll just go home

1090
01:34:38,548 --> 01:34:40,425
Oh God knows where

1091
01:34:42,010 --> 01:34:44,980
Because death is just so full

1092
01:34:46,389 --> 01:34:48,312
And man so small

1093
01:34:49,767 --> 01:34:52,691
Well I'm scared of what's behind

1094
01:34:54,147 --> 01:34:55,945
And what's before

1095
01:35:01,321 --> 01:35:04,871
There will come a time you'll see

1096
01:35:05,992 --> 01:35:07,539
With no more tears

1097
01:35:07,702 --> 01:35:11,707
<i>And love will not break your heart</i>

1098
01:35:11,873 --> 01:35:13,625
And dismiss your fears

1099
01:35:13,791 --> 01:35:16,294
Get over your hill

1100
01:35:16,461 --> 01:35:19,806
And see what you find there

1101
01:35:19,964 --> 01:35:22,717
<i>With grace in your heart</i>

1102
01:35:22,884 --> 01:35:26,809
And ﬂowers in your hair

1103
01:35:49,619 --> 01:35:53,499
You know, I'd have been way ahead
of the game if I'd just gone ahead

1104
01:35:53,665 --> 01:35:56,134
and built that house without
ever asking for a permit.

1105
01:35:56,292 --> 01:35:59,387
Yeah, and I would have been much happier

1106
01:35:59,545 --> 01:36:01,513
if I'd just stuck you in an old folks home.

1107
01:36:02,507 --> 01:36:06,512
That's funny, I was just about to propose
the same thing to you.

1108
01:36:06,678 --> 01:36:08,851
I could check into some
options, if you don't mind.

1109
01:36:09,013 --> 01:36:11,107
Yeah, we should go in together
and get a group rate.

1110
01:36:11,266 --> 01:36:13,644
Now you're talking.

1111
01:36:14,978 --> 01:36:16,070
So...

1112
01:36:18,356 --> 01:36:20,233
you got another project in mind?

1113
01:36:22,902 --> 01:36:24,620
Maybe.

1114
01:36:25,697 --> 01:36:27,040
Do you want to talk about it?

1115
01:36:27,198 --> 01:36:28,825
No.

1116
01:36:30,451 --> 01:36:31,919
Is it big?

1117
01:36:33,288 --> 01:36:34,631
Might be.

1118
01:36:35,373 --> 01:36:38,718
Jesus, Dad.

1119
01:36:42,297 --> 01:36:44,971
What else do you want me
to do, sit around all day?

1120
01:36:45,133 --> 01:36:47,101
Time enough for that when I'm dead.

1121
01:37:14,662 --> 01:37:15,709
Oh...

1122
01:37:16,414 --> 01:37:18,792
look at this hair.

1123
01:37:21,753 --> 01:37:23,847
How long since your last haircut?

1124
01:37:25,048 --> 01:37:27,050
Oh, it's... it's been a while.

1125
01:37:40,688 --> 01:37:42,611
The usual?
Yes, ma'am.

1126
01:38:01,501 --> 01:38:02,878
Irene?

1127
01:38:05,755 --> 01:38:09,305
Yes?
Are you cutting my hair?

1128
01:38:11,719 --> 01:38:12,891
Of course.

1129
01:38:15,556 --> 01:38:16,899
Look at this hair.

1130
01:38:19,435 --> 01:38:21,733
How long since your last haircut?

1131
01:38:24,065 --> 01:38:25,362
It's been a while.

1132
01:38:27,902 --> 01:38:29,279
It's been a while.

1133
01:42:45,159 --> 01:42:47,161
