:12:02
I mean, I gotta get home
at some point. I got a kid.
:12:05
But, uh...

# So, God
give me strength #
:12:23
[Denise] I don't know. Maybe I put too
much of myself in the song.
:12:29
The whole game's changed now, kiddo.
Everyone's writing their own material.
:12:33
And now with Betty checked into
Lexington and Sha Sha getting married,
:12:36
that pretty much puts an end
to The Luminaries.
:12:39
I gave Doris some leads
on session work out in Los Angeles.
:12:42
Have you, um... you know, have you
thought about what you're gonna do?
:12:46
- Well, with Matthew dumping
Cheryl, I thought maybe...
- You and Cheryl?
:12:50
Nah. Nothing's going on with us.
It's strictly business. You see?
:12:54
She was a married lady
and l... I don't mess around.
:12:57
Geez, does she know how you feel.
I mean, do you have a plan?
:13:00
I'm gonna ask her
to marry me.
:13:04
Joel.
[Laughs]
:13:07
Maybe you should, you know, ask her
out for dinner and a movie first.
:13:12
You think that's a better
idea, huh? Oh, well.
:13:15
Yeah. I do.
:13:21
Why don't you level with me?
"God Give Me Strength" broke you, right?
:13:25
What?
Get out of here, huh.
:13:28
You're just like a woman to think
she's the ruination of a guy.
:13:32
Look here.
You made me, Denise.
:13:36
I was the laughing stock of this town
before you wrote me my first hit...
:13:39
a-and my second,
and how many since?
:13:43
See, you forced me to take...
chances I would've never had
the guts to take alone.
:13:51
You made me, kiddo.
