I don't know why
you keep saying things like this.

2:56:03
It's not funny.
2:56:05
- I thought it was funny.
- Thank you.

2:56:08
Henry was making all of that up, Jenny.
Jenny, what are you doing?

2:56:12
"When a problem comes along
you must whip it. Before the cream..."

2:56:16
- Jenny, give me my letter.
- That's it?

2:56:19
That's all she left behind
to explain why she chose you?

2:56:21
- The lyrics to "Whip lt"?
- It makes sense to me.

2:56:25
What is it with you two and that song?
It's ridiculous. I don't get it.

2:56:29
- Exactly!
- What are you saying?

2:56:32
That that's the point? I'm no fun? That I
don't get things? That I never make jokes?

2:56:38
Show me your letter.
2:56:41
No.
2:56:42
No? No? What do you mean "no"?
2:56:45
We said you would read my letter
and I would read yours.

2:56:48
This is not a letter.
2:56:50
These are lyrics. Nonsensical lyrics.
This is not a letter.

2:56:55
If this was a letter, you could read my letter,
but this is not a letter.

2:57:00
(Helen) Not a letter?
2:57:02
What?
2:57:04
You are a smug,
2:57:06
bitter, colossal bitch.
2:57:10
(whines)
2:57:11
OK. Guys.
2:57:12
I think this is a good time
to take Origami for a walk.

2:57:17
No, we'll miss the fight.
2:57:19
If you're finished,
I think I'd like to serve dessert.

2:57:23
(Helen) You don't wanna help me,
you just wanna judge me.

2:57:27
Let's all go into the living room and listen
to Jasmine play the piano with one arm.

2:57:32
You just wanna prove that you're a better
mother than me, that Lindsay was wrong.

2:57:36
Why would I need to prove that?
Of course I'm a better mother than you.

2:57:40
I've been doing it forever. But does that
matter? No. She still chose you over me.

2:57:44
Exactly. She chose, Jenny. Not me.
I had no control over it.

2:57:50
You're angry with me because
of a decision that she made for me.

2:57:55
‡ Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily
Life is...

2:57:59
I am giving up everything for these kids,
and you have no idea what that's like.
