:26:04
Come in.
:26:06
Your mom's here.
:26:10
How was your day, dear?
:26:12
They made me do a drug test.
:26:14
l knew it.
l knew you shouldn't do this picture.

:26:17
Yeah, because it's a bad film, not
because they'd make me do a drug test.

:26:21
l don't analyse the way you do.
lt just felt wrong to me.

:26:26
l had a dream that it wasn't right.
:26:28
You don't believe my dreams,
even the one about your kidney stone.

:26:32
-l'd really like a Percodan.
-l had a dream the other night.

:26:36
-l had a dream that l was drowning.
-Two Percodan. Make that three.

:26:40
-A sequined gown dragging me down.
-What does that mean?

:26:44
l don't want to alarm you,
but l do want to prepare you.

:26:48
l didn't tell you this before
because of the drug clinic thing.

:26:52
Remember my hysterectomy?
:26:53
-The one last year?
-Right. Well, they found tumours.

:26:57
-Really?
-Fibroid tumours.

:26:59
But isn't that normal?
:27:01
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!
