Joey, eat your food just a few more bites
and drink your juice.
[dishwashing]
Honey do you have.to wash the dishes right now?
Tim, could you drop Joey off at school today?
I can't honey.
I have no time. I have this presentation it's driving me freaking crazy.
I got a meeting to go to.
I'm really sorry.
I can't have this go wrong today and it's already...
Tell Joey to stop messing around with my laptop the battery is almost dead.
[drops the pen]
[breaks the vase]
Oh my God! look what you did!
Sorry, honey, it was an accident. It's just a vase. Just a vase? No-no, this
It's just a vase. Just a vase?
No-no, this was my grandmother's vase, her favorite vase.
She didn't give it to her daughters
she saved it and gave it to me.
I think everyone would understand it was an accident. It was too close to the edge.
... Okay I'm sorry.
I don't know what else to say,
I'm sure your grandma would understand it's an accident.
Look, we'll talk about it tonight. okay?
I got to go.
Bye Joey.

Don't be mad, mom, dad didn't mean break the vase.
I'm not mad it's not that.
It's your father. He just always has an answer and excuse for everything.
Excuse me. Can I ask you to take a picture of me with that view in the background?
Yes, absolutely.
Got it, there you go.
You probably live here. Can you recommend what I should see while I'm visiting?
Yeah absolutely. What are you looking to see?
Well, I'm a designer, I'm interested in architecture
now though I'm in San Francisco I want to see as much as possible.
Sure. I'd really recommend the Castro district and
and in fact, it's not very far from here
and you're already on your way.
Maybe we could go together?
I'm.. actually, busy today
but thank you. Well, maybe tomorrow? Let me
give you my business card.
I think we could have fun talking.

[TV NEWS music]
Tiffany? Jen?
Hi how are you? I'm good! So good to see you!
Good to see you! It's been so long. I know, it's been forever.
I was just looking through the kids yearbook and it made me think about you.
We should get together for dinner sometime. Great, I'll check my calendar.
Tiffany, I lost you. Hello there.
Michael, this is Jen - my old friend from school.
Oh, hi.
Michael, wait for me in the car outside? I'll be right there. Okay.
Who's that? That is my stress relief.
Okay, um, so are you cheating on Ben?
You know, Ben and I have an emotional connection, this is just physical.
Please don't look at me like that. Come on, we've known each other so long.
I know you can keep a secret.
I don't know what to say, but for you of course I will.
(meeting host) Yesterday I told Mary to inform you that we are starting a new TV show
So, we have to fly in New York in few days. (host's voice fades out)

Picked it out myself.
It's nice. It's nice, right?
It's nice, right? I thought we would replace the one

I know it's not your grandma's but looks good, right?
[silence] I'll just go put it.
[opera song on TV continues]
I got to go to New York next week. Really?
Again? Yes, again honey. You were just
You were just there. I know I was just there, honey
but I have to go. What am I gonna say?
They put me on the spot what am I gonna say?
Come on. I don't know.
Look, it's just hard doing everything by myself.
To have the house in order and r eady for you,
when you get home. It's just not why we moved here.
We moved here for many reasons. Right? My job is one of them.
My job is what put food on the table. If we didn't have my job we'd be f...ed
And, if we'd being frank now, let me just say that, you could get a job.
You have ever thought about that? You could contribute more. Tim, I changed who I was
for you and Joey. I am sorry you feel that way.
Okay? I'm trying to plan something out. We can make it work.
You know what? How about you take Joey with you?
so that I could work on myself?
Okay. Okay.
Sweetie, it'll be good for you to spend some time with your dad.
Come on, it's not that bad being with Daddy.
But, what will I do when dad's at work?
You can come to work with me.
We'll get you some coloring books. Come on, it's gonna be fun. Okay
Okay, yeah. ok... OK! Good!

[restaurant noise]
Hello. Hi. This is Jen, I don't know
I don't know if you remember me but..
Yeah, sure, I remember. I'm in Santa Cruz right now
and I was just wondering if you maybe 'd like to get together?
Yeah, of course. Well, there's really good restaurant
called "La Catalana" they have a really good live band playing tonight.
Yeah sounds fun to me. I'll see you there.
[tender violin music]
It's crazy. New York subway.
This connects the whole city. Much different to the Bay Area.
[restaurant live music]
I thought you lived in San Francisco. I do. I do live in San Francisco.
But this is Santa Cruz. Well, I just kind of wanted to get out of town
and I've never been here before, so I wanted to see.
So, let's explore Santa Cruz. I'd like to wonder this unknown City with such a beautiful girl.
You're very straight forward.
Easier that way. No strings attached. Just here and now.
Sorry I kept you waiting but I also booked a hotel room. Place with an ocean view.
But I didn't trust it so I went to make sure we can see the ocean tomorrow.
[restaurant music]
So, how are you liking San Francisco? I haven't even made it to the Golden Gate Bridge yet.
I keep getting stuck in all those cahos along a strip.
I tell you, San Francisco's got his crazy side but goes to bed too early.
I wonder if Santa Cruz goes early too.
Let's take a walk to see what's fun here.
I'd like to stay here and it quiet.
Do you like a quiet? We should go to my place.
Soothing, calm and music way better there. I really like these guys.
They sound great. No. Come on, we don't need this crowd.
I'll be right back.
[“She goes” restaurant band playing]
[music fades out]
You've got to get yourself together.
Take a breath.
Excuse me, look I know you're here for the solitude and beauty in all,
but I was kind of here first. I know.. I..
I know, you didn't really notice me. I just didn't want to frighten you.
No, I'm sorry, you didn't fight me.
I'm Ryan. I'm Jen.
So, what brings you here Jen?
Someone suggested a bar up the road and I wouldn't got a drink.
Didn't go so well? Exactly, it did not go well.
What about you? What are you doing here? The view.
How can you say no to that?
You know, I know a nice little cafe about a mile or so that way.
They have a good food, live music.
You will like the music. I don't know.
[restaurant band playing]
I told you the music's good here. it's really good.
So do you play any instruments? I used to play piano and thing,
but it's been a very long time. What about you?
I play a little guitar just like everyone in Santa Cruz. Right?
We all play a little guitar. Well, I've never been to Santa Cruz.
Really? Wow. Welcome. I'm glad to help pop your cherry.
But I was born and raised here and I love it here.
People are so friendly, it still feels like a small town, you know.
And plus, you have the ocean and the beach. It's just right there.
It's beautiful. And the nights like this. It almost feels magical.
Excuse me. No-no-no, here, allow me.
Enjoy it. Thank you.
A little bit of wine.
That's good.
Cheers.
[“Lady, Lady” restaurant band playing]
[big city noise]
Why don't you introduce me to this lady?
Oh, I'm sorry. Jen, Roger, Roger, Jen.
Nice to meet you.
We go back like 12 years now.
So, we know each other for a while.
That's a long time. Right?
But, would you believe she has never been to Santa Cruz before?
It that so? Man, I wanna picture of myself with you.
Oh, no! What's wrong with that?
I've never meet someone like her.
Okay, it's time for me to go? Yeah.
[“She lost control” restaurant band playing]
Very nice guys, very nice. [Hiccup]
I'm sorry. You got the hiccups.
You know, I've had a really nice time but I'm tired and
I think it's time for me to go.
No-no-no! Come on, it's still really early
plus I mean if you go home now you're gonna wake up half the hotel
with those hiccups.
Well I already called a taxi. Well, I have a better idea.
How about we walk? I mean it's a beautiful night. Right?
I don't know. I'm tired. Is it far?
No, it's very close and we cut through the beach, both use of fresh air
and, trust me, the way that moonlight will bounce off of the water
like I said, it will be very magical.
Okay. Yeah? You want to walk?
Sure. Good. And it looks like the band's getting tired.
Thanks again, guys.
[restaurant band fades out]
Did you hear that?
Am I supposed to hear something?
Your hiccups - they're gone. Oh my gosh. You are right.
[hiccup] Well, sort of.
Wait, hold on, wait here. Okay.
What are you doing Ryan? It's okay.
Aare you sure? OK.
Yeah-yeah. No one lives in these houses.
Beautiful flowers for a beautiful lady.
Thank you, they're beautiful.
Come on, let's keep walking. Smell good too.
So how much longer should we get to the motel?
Do you think? Oh.. to the motel..
Well the motel is just actually a couple
blocks down this way and we're almost there but my house is just right here.
Here? Yes.
Want to come inside?
Do you won't come in?
Okay.
Watch your step.
[door closing]
Welcome to my place. You have an interesting sense of style.
Thank you. You're welcome.
Oh, um.. bathroom is right there. Thanks.
[knife sound]
[knife and plastic sound]
It should be good.
Let's go to the room we'll be more comfortable. I made you a vase.
It's beautiful.
I know. Here, follow me.
Please grab a seat. Thank you.
Have you ever had rose tea before? No, I have not.
That's what I thought.
Wanna know a little secret? Sure.
[water pouring]
[silence]
The rose is really good for hangovers.
No! That's what I've got.
Most people have never had rose tea before.
[silence]
I grew up drinking a rose tea.
But I swear it really does cure hangovers. Alright.
I cured for it. It'll be our little secret.

Just save me some.
That's fine.
[guitar music]
[door opening]
Hey, babe. Hey.
How was your day?
Exhausting. How about you?
I was going through some old pictures.
We seemed a lot happier. Seemed?
You know what I mean, Tim.
I was looking at those pictures from Yosemite.
Ae you referring to the trail of Dome? Yeah.
Where I almost broke my neck?
I remember, that was right before I bought that camera for your birthday.
That's right. And you wanted to teach me photography
so we hopped on a flight from New York to California
and then... That's right. I was sitting next to that jerk.
I remember him. When we drove around
no clue what we're gonna do. No clue.
[silence]
Different, happier time.
But honey, you know, we had Joey and Joey's a miracle
and I would never not want to have him. I mean it's different.
It's a different chapter. I know. I know. I know.
I was just thinking that it would be good for us
you and I to go on an adventure
just the two of us. We could go to Monterey.
I can get my dad to take Joey for a couple days.
That would be great. Yeah. I'm gonna go lay down.
Okay.
[doorbell ring]
Wow. Hey, little man, look at you.
You've grown so much! You're slowly becoming a man.
Grandpa, can I go play your old guitar?
Sure, you can, go on. Be careful, buddy.
Hey Dad. You look like you could use a drink.
[Music]
[switching radio station]
Tim what are you doing?
I want to see if the games on. I was listening to that.
That was my favorite song. Sorry, honey.
[switching radio station]
..You have to turn the other.. Sorry.
What's going on up here?
[fire truck beeping sound] Wait a minute, I got somebody behind me.
Okay, well, I'm starting to get carsick.
Sick of sitting in the car.
Okay, I'm done. I'm getting out of the car.
Honey, what are you doing? [fire truck beeping sound]

Are you kidding me? Tim did you really have to do that? Really, Tim? Really?
You just left me there. I needed. I've got a car behind me, it's a fire truck!
You had enough time you could have waited. I wasn't gonna leave
I was just looking for a parking spot.
I think you just can't let staff affect you so much. You know?
just stupid little things. We are going to launching this staff someday.
I hope so. We will.
I'm just I'm tired we fight
about the same things all the time over and over again. You're right.
You are right. I'll try harder.
[sound of glasses]
I'm sorry. Ok? Let's try to have a good weekend.
Okay.
[phone ring]
Why don't you just text them?
(Phone ring) Or just call them and tell that you're busy.
Hello, can we?.. Can we talk another time? I'm kind of about dinner.
What Rick said that?
No, it doesn't work that way.
No, I talked to Phil two weeks ago about this.
You know I'm doing small promotions my name is Louie.
We're having awesome stand-up show just next door.
I'll call you back!
... and actually, that's my business card. What he's doing here?
I'm Tim. I'm her husband. Do you want to sit down to have drinks with us?
There are two drinks here! Right?
I mean somebody was sitting here. Oh, no. I was about to leave.
So, why won't you leave? Take your time. See you.
What the hell is that? Oh, God!
You gotta be kidding me. Tim, don't make a scene.
He was telling me about a stand-up act.
What the hell man? This is ridiculous.
Okay, what was that card he gave you?
Why don't you take a look? Why don't we just leave?
Where are we going anyways? I thought we were staying at the hotel.
No, we're going back home. I don't want to stay at the hotel.
Good idea.
Great weekend.
Maybe we should go back and see if that guy wants to come home with us?
[night crickets]
When your father was young like you, he also liked to sleep on this couch.
We often went fishing deep in the ocean,
far from the coast. When we came back late at night
your grandmother would bring him food and cover him with a blanket.
He would tell her how brave he had been that day.
When we were preparing the equipment to be put on the boat she moved her easel
next to the window.
She never went to sleep before we got back.
She drew all that time. People asked me:
"Why do you have so many pictures in your house
of the ocean at night?"
That's because we stayed so long in the boat with your dad.
This may be the only one picture that your dad drew. When we traveled to Japan
he heard a fairy tale that impressed him greatly. When we came back home, he drew this picture.
Grandpa, will you tell me that fairy-tell?
It might scare you. Are you sure you want to hear it? Okay.
Ok
[night crickets]
Somewhere, deep in Japan there is a pond surrounded by a forest.
Travelers stayed far from that pond, especially after sunset.
One day a man went hunting and got lost in forests.
Late at night he saw a woman crouching by a creek.
All alone. Weeping bitterly.
Afraid that she might drown herself he stopped to help.
[disturbing music] "Don't cry like that, tell me what the trouble is."
When the lady turned around and dropped her sleeve and stroked her face
with her hand the man saw that she had no eyes or
or nose or mouth and he screamed and ran away.
He ran and ran, and all was black
and empty before him. He did not dare
look back until at last he saw a lantern.
[disturbing music]
It was only the lantern of an itinerant soba seller who had set down his stand
by the roadside.
He flung himself down at the feet of the sober seller crying out. A-a!
"What is the matter with you?
Anybody hurt you?"
"I saw, I saw a woman by a creek and…
..and she showed me.. oh, I cannot tell you
what she showed me".
"Ha! Was it anything like this that she showed you?"
Cried the silver man stroking his own face
which therewith became unto like EGG!!!
Well, what are you? It's just a fairy tale.

A destructive tsunami triggered by
an 8.9 earthquake off the coast of Japan
[TV forecast voice] sent waves surging onto the Santa Cruz County coastline tonight.
Creating nothing more than a spectacle
on the shoreline except at the Santa Cruz
Small Craft Harbor. A forceful shove from the sea sunk 17 vessels and damaged
up to 50 more.
No injuries were immediately reported countywide.
Damage at Santa Cruz harbor estimated at $15 million.

Sorry. Listen, I have to take another business trip
I was wondering if you have any plans with Joey.
If you don't I was thinking of taking him to Niagara Falls with me.
Yeah. That would be great. He would really love that.
What are you doing? Oh, um. Not much.
See you later. All right. Buy.
Hey, sorry about that. That's alright.
So the weather up there is crazy, how are you doing?
You know, just a few broken branches. Boat drowned in the pear.
But that's about it.
Nothing big. Oh my gosh, that sounds crazy.
At least you're okay?
Still waiting my own storm.
Waiting for you to come visit again. Uh, I don't know.
Today? Alright. perfect.
I'll prepare that vine. And that tea.
That sounds really good.
[water splashes]
[music fades in]
Whoa, Whoa! Watch out hey this is not a San Francisco.

You should always start by filling in the background then
you could draw the objects over it so you start with
a thick brush it picks up a lot of paint.
You choose your colors and then you draw your shapes. Today I'm going to draw
giraffes. How about you? I want to draw some trees.
Great. Okay. For that you're gonna need green and brown colors.
Why don't you start with some of the poor brownie and fill in the bottom half
of the canvas?

Did you have fun at granddad's? Yeah
He's a good guy. He likes you a lot. I love you - you know that right?
Okay. Just feel like I have to tell you sometimes. Maybe I don't tell you enough.

[engine sound]
[restaurant noise]
So turns out that I'm gonna be able to spend more time at home.
Being transferring to a different department.
What do you think about that? That sounds great!
That means I could spend more time with you. That's great, hon!
That's not sound good? You like that?
Yeah! You better say yeah.
Is that mean we can go on trips with mom?
Yes, absolutely. You can show her New York you're an expert right?
It sounds awesome!
Cool turns out I have three weeks, actually, three weeks vacation paid.
Wow! Yeah actually a little bit more money

So, that's great! We're in the money.

Rodger. Nobody remembers my name from the first meeting.
Sorry. I'm terrible with names.
I'm the opposite I have an excellent memory with names.
It gets better with every customer. How have you been?
I'm great. Now I work on the top of that building.
I get to enjoy the city. That one on the right.
It's beautiful, right by the water. it's incredible. "Hungry photographer" - lovely place.
By the way, sometimes we have the band that played in Santa Cruz
from the last time I saw you. People like them.
"The shattered vase"?
Well you have a good memory for a bands, though.
They play every Thursday. Thursday is my only
day off but even then I sometimes come to the restaurant used to listen to the band.
You worked a month straight? That's a lot. No kidding.
What happened in Santa Cruz impressed me so much. I had been thinking about how to
change something in my life even before, but after that I just did it.
I'm sorry, it's been a long time, did something happen to you in Santa Cruz?
To me? No. I meant Ryan. What about Ryan?
I'm sorry, I thought you know. Ryan drowned in the bath.
I couldn't believe it. Police say because he had been drinking he must falling asleep
and drowned.
He laid there for several days. I was the first to find him.
Not the most pleasant sight. Trust me.
I don't even.. I don't even know what to say. I'm so sorry.
I thought you were close friends.
["Purcell" opera song playing]
Robert, ... Rodger.
Sorry, this is a lot of unexpected information I just.. I need a minute
information I just I need a minute to walk by myself.
Sure, I understand.
I'm sorry, too.
["Purcell" opera song playing]
So what we want to do is we wanna put the most important stuff at the front. Right?
So we can get it right away. So, probably put your backpack
right there, so we make sure this thing comes down.
Perfect fit okay let's go
