Usually. Usually it's normal.
:27:03
But in our family
all the women die young.

:27:07
Grandma's still alive.
:27:08
Barely, and don't contradict me.
:27:10
l might not be around for much longer.
l don't want to alarm you.

:27:15
l want to prepare you for my death.
:27:17
lt is so important that you understand
how precious your life is to me.

:27:21
How did we end up talking about
your death from my drug test?

:27:25
l don't understand. Could we not talk?
l don't feel very well.

:27:29
You should have Dr. Feldman look
at you. Maybe you have tumours.

:27:33
Mine was big as a grapefruit.
:27:35
l'm gonna kill myself.
:27:37
Don't say that, even in jest, Suzanne.
:27:40
You were in a drug clinic.
People might take it the wrong way.

:27:45
Looks as though
there's a party going on here.

:27:48
l invited a few friends over
to celebrate your coming home.

:27:51
Oh, no, Mom. l have to get up early.
l don't want to see them.

:27:55
All right, if you want,
l'll tell them all to go home.

:27:59
Surprise!

My little girl is home.
:28:09
There are people here
l haven't seen since high school...

:28:12

Louis Karasik!
:28:16
For chrissake, where did
she come up with Louis Karasik?

:28:20
Last time l saw him, he threw up
scrambled eggs out of his nose...

:28:24
...on the way to the library.
:28:25
Let me look at you, before your fat
old grandmother goes home to bed!

:28:30
Give me a hug, you fat old grandma.
:28:33
You sure do stink pretty.
:28:35
This is my friend Aretha.
:28:37
-Hi and bye. We're hitting the road.
-Not yet.

:28:40
Your mother started drinking wine.
:28:42
She'll rattle off
at the mouth all night.

:28:45
l'm hightailing it out of here.
:28:47
Now that you're better,
why don't you get her to stop?

:28:51

just like Owen.

:28:54
