Playing ball.
What are you wearing?
My tux.
It's uniform mom.
Where are my keys?
hair done?
Yes, and I've gotta get out of here.
The house is a mess.
Could you at least clean your room?
I need a vacation.
You just got back.
What, you think we were on vacation?
Go talk to your brother.
He needs you to talk to him.
Okay.
Okay, mom.
Morris, it's David.
Morris, you wanna talk?
I'm coming in, okay?
Hey Morris, can I turn that music down?
Morris, so, can I turn that music down, please?
Great, it was really loud, you know.
So what did you do today?
You're just reading Hebrew books.
Dad's sleeping and mom's getting her hair done.
But all in that same moment.
She understood everything.
Infinite happiness-
- Crime and Punishment, Fyodor Dostoevsky, page 549.
Amazing, you get it right every single time.
You're a genius, Morris.
So I won my first game today,
Lafayette fields, the big one.
90 feet base to base.
I had this really great catch,
a single double and I even drove one in.
Anyway, it was great talking to you Morris.
See you around.
What position?
Did I play?
Center, just like metal.
DiMaggio, Gerrick, Ruth, Ty Cobb.
He used to sharpen the spikes and slide in high.
Honus Wagner, Jimmie Foxx, Mel Ott.
That was baseball.
Yeah.
Well, this is real baseball too, you know.
I heard the Yanks won last night.
Middle Maris,.
Anyway, it was great talking to you Morris.
I'm gonna go get changed.
I can't wait till my next game.
Do you want to come to my next game?
Who's this, who's this, who's this?
Wow. I want her bad.
Man, come on, who's this?
Who's this, who's this?
I'd give up my left arm to have girls legs
wrapped around mine.
Richardson.
Come on, that was an easy one.
If only she was easy.
All right, who's this?
Wow, how can she get away with that,
with tits.
All right, who's this, who's this?
I don't know.
How did Saturday go?
That's me, two over three, single, double, RVI
and I missed some great catches.
What about your dad?
Isn't your bar mitzvah coming up?
Yeah.
Can I share Chumash homework?
Again?
Yeah, again, don't be an ass.
Screw you.
No, screw you.
David.
Come on, it's time for shul.
David, come on.
I can't today, dad, I'm sick.
What?
What are you talking, come on.
Come on, you're okay.
Let's go.
Let's go, come on.
I ate too much last night.
My stomach is killing me.
Yeah, mom's food that can do it.
Well, come on, come on.
You gotta go.
We gotta go, come on.
I'll come, I'll come, just a little late.
Promise?
Okay.
All right, I'll see you soon.
Esther, honey, get the door.
There's someone here for you.
Mrs. Sabah.
Yes, can I help you?
I come from the agency.
Wonderful, come in.
I'm just making lunch.
It's so hot in here.
This house needs a good cleaning.
I'll take you to your room.
We took our son, Morris, to Israel to get help,
and we just got back so the house is a mess, I'm sorry.
He's sick, he has problems,
but he saw a top doctor in Israel,
a psychiatrist and he's getting better.
I think he's getting better.
The doctor says that he's depressed,
and schizophrenic.
But I think he's getting better, maybe.
But this is your room.
Just unpack your things and then come on down
to the kitchen, okay.
Mrs. Sabah, I'm sorry.
Hey David, you're here early.
That's great.
Aren't you going to introduce me to your new buddy?
Yeah, this is David, the new kid.
Hi David.
Hi.
Vinny tells me you're only 12.
And a pretty decent player.
You did good last week.
Thanks.
Thank you.
Got to go.
You know I'm almost 13.
Don't mess up Vinny.
You need to win today.
This is no bullshit.
All right, we're the better frigging team.
We're The Bonnies for Christ's sakes.
So here's today's lineup.
Vinny, you're going to bat first, okay.
You get on base any way you can.
These guys don't know how to pitch.
Rodriguez, you're second.
Smith, you're third.
Sabah, you bating clean up today.
So you go out there and you show me what you got.
All right?
All right guys.
Let's go.
Strike.
Time.
Dave, hi.
This is your time kid.
You're down by your own.
You go out there and you show them
you're not some little bitch, you hear me?
Yes, coach.
Play ball.
This guy's gotta a big curve ball.
So you wait for it to be in your wheelhouse and you rip it.
You got it?
Got it.
All right, go.
That's it. That's it.
All right, let's go.
Let's go, let's go.
Bring it in, bring it in. Bring it in.
Let's go, let's go.
Sabah, come here.
Listen to me.
You got some real talent.
That was a hell of a way to hit the ball today,
you got us into the playoffs.
I want to see you at practice this week, okay?
Thanks coach, I mean Nikki.
All right, go on.
Get out of here.
Look, David's home.
David, where were you?
You were not in shul.
You lied to me, David.
You said you were coming.
You were playing baseball.
David, enough, your bar mitzvah is coming up.
It's almost the 25th.
You're gonna be a man.
Now, go take that off.
No, no, now.
Go change now.
Vivian, hey, it's David.
David, hi.
Hi, I'm so tired.
Why are you calling me so early?
It's 02:00 here.
What are you talking about?
It's 11:00 there.
Shit. Shit. Shit.
You're okay?
What happened?
No, I'm just supposed to be at my therapist you know.
And I think my sleeping pills are too strong.
David, how is my little brother?
I miss you so much.
I'm doing good, I guess.
I played baseball today in the big field.
That's great.
Come on Vivian, we're going to be late.
Let's go for God sake.
Okay. I'm talking to my brother, David.
You just don't understand me.
We haven't had sex in...
Fuck, I can't even remember.
Tell me about the baseball game.
David.
Hey, Rita, don't you know how to knock?
It is Shabbat.
What are you doing on the phone?
Who are you talking?
Is that Rita?
Wow, I love her.
She really is something.
Tell her to go fuck off.
What is so funny?
Vivian sends her love.
Yeah, right. Okay.
I'm going to go if you don't get out of
the phone right now.
Okay, I'm coming. I got to go.
I love you, you know why?
David, get off the phone.
Why?
Because you're perfect just the way you are.
I think it's so neat you're playing the game you love.
Go for your dreams, always.
I'll see you real soon, bye.
Bye, Vivian.
All right, buddy, bring it in, bring it in.
Now, listen up.
I've seen a lot of good things out there okay,
but I don't want that to go into your heads.
Because we've got the playoffs coming up.
So I need you ready and focused.
Another thing, came down from the league the other day,
they moved the game to Saturday the 25th,
but don't let that throw you.
All right, you're ready.
You stay ready?
Don't be late.
Let your folks know about the game change.
All right, let's go.

I love you.
I just got a new recipe for the kibbeh.
I'll give it to you, it's great.
No he's not going to listen to her.
David, well, you're so quiet and you're not eating.
Go get Morris.
Mom, he's not coming down.
Eli, tell him to go get Morris.
David, listen to your mother, okay.
Esther, I have a business trip coming up this Wednesday.
I forgot to tell you about it.
David, how are you doing in school?
How's the Hebrew coming?
I'm doing all right.
Hey, I had the game winning hit last baseball game.
What game?
Just all right?
I spent so much money on your school
for it to be just all right.
Your bar mitzvah's coming up.
It's almost here.
You need to be ready and not fooling around.
What fooling around?
This baseball game, all right.
I don't want you playing baseball, especially on Shabbat.
Understand?
Especially with those kinds of kids.
Well, what kids?
What are you talking about?
Let it be.
Go get Morris.
No, no, no, no, no.
David, sit down, please.
Please, sit down.
Sit.
Listen, you need to be serious.
You're becoming a man, so now you have to act like one.
You're gonna be going to high school,
maybe some college and then going into business.
Just like everybody else.
This is the best community in the whole world.
You need to stick to your own kind.
You understand?
Yes.
Good.
Now, please, go get Morris.
So mom and dad
While you were away, I started seeing someone.
Apocalypse.
Apocalypse, I see.
Do you believe in that?
I think we should all die one day.
It will all end.
But there will be nothing, Morris.
No chance for tomorrow's people.
No, nothing.
How was it?
What?
The hospital for the brain.
What's funny?
Bad, really bad.
People are easier than me.
Everywhere, people talking to themselves.
I hated it.
I wanna write.
Like one of the greats.
Dostoevsky, Mann, Tolstoy.
But I can't, I'm stuck,
I'm very stuck.
I don't understand that.
You are so very smart.
You have read all these books.
You know all these things.
Write, just write.
No, I-
- You're sweet, but troubled.
Come on.
You should be happy.
You should do what you want to do.
You're not like any of the rest of them.
You're different.
You care
Maria, what are you doing here?
I need you in the kitchen.
Eli.
Morris.
I have your dinner.
It is the way you like it.
Chicken, rice, potatoes, vegetables.
Thank you, Maria.
Would you sit with me?
Morris, I can't.
I'm sorry.
Your mother wants me to finish laundry.
Okay.
I'm sorry.

I want you to wear it for your bar mitzvah
and special occasions. Okay?

Here, you open it.
Thank you daddy.
And Esther, look what I have for you.
Eli.

Eli, no, you didn't have to.
David, would you go see if Morris will come down to dinner?
Come on mom.
It's me every time.
Esther, what's wrong?
What's wrong?
You did not like it?
I gave it all to this woman.
She said she could help him.
She said you could save him and make him well again.
I need him to be better, and she said he will.
You gave what to who?
Please, come in.
This gypsy woman, my jewelry.
I gave her all of my jewelry, everything.
You gave some woman all the jewelry
I've ever bought you, Why?
Let me see if Morris wants to come.
Is there something wrong with you?
Esther, are you going crazy?
Morris, Morris.
She said it would work.
It's working.
Morris.
Maria, please go and get Morris some soup.
Morris, sit.
Morris, sit down, please.
Eat something.
Sit with us.
I thought you said he was improving.
What am I, his doctor?
You don't do anything for him.
You're not ever even around.
I work all the time.
I pray to God everyday for him.
I kill myself to buy you all the jewelry
and you give it to some woman?
Do you have idea-
We got to do something.
crazy.
What did you do to my son?
I'm sorry-
- I need you to get all of your things
and you need to leave this house right now.
I didn't do anything.
No, you need to leave now.
He was getting better.
He was-
- I need the job.
You need to go now, now.
Mom, will you help me with my dress?
Come here.
You're looking nice and spiffy, dad.
Okay, there you go my love.
Thank you.
God, I love playing baseball more than anything else.
Why can't I have both?
David, you're ready?
Just about.
How are you, excited?
Yeah.
I'm very proud of you.
This is for you.
This belonged to my father.
He gave it to me when I was very young.
I want you to wear it today.
It's your special day.
Guess who?
Hi, David.
How you've grown?
You got so, so big.
Give your big sister the biggest hug.
How is everyone?
Look at this big baseball bat mitzvah boy.
Rita, I hear you're seeing someone.
Is he wonderful?
Tell me about him.
Can I meet him?
You will, he'll be at shul.
Vivian, you're so thin.
Are you eating?
It's called dieting.
Actually it's called dieting and divorce.
You might as well know.
Chuck and I filed for divorce last week,
but we are still the best of friends.
I thought you were going for help.
I was, but we fight all the time.
Rita, I hope you do better than I did.
Sorry, Vivian.
You need to eat honey.
Why dad, I don't look good?
Come on, I'll make you something fast before we go.
Come on, help me Rita.
Don't you have help?
You always have a maid.
Don't ask.
David, you look great.
You're excited for your bar mitzvah?
Yeah, except that I have
a really big playoff game coming up.
You just can't tell anybody, all right?
Hey, Morris, it's me.
Can I come in?
Hey, Morris, how are you?
Look at all your books and records.
You read all these?
I never read anything.
I'm always so busy.
I always loved that picture, birds are so free.
Remember when we were kids
we used to go in on the beach together.
Those were fun times.
The beaches in California are beautiful.
What was it like being locked up in the mental hospital?
Doesn't sound like much fun to me.
I guess you don't want to talk to me.
That's all right, maybe later.
I've been seeing this therapist
and she's really been helping me a lot.
Our little brother loves baseball so much.
He got that because of you.
You know that?
You don't want to talk to me.
It's all right.
It's all right. It's all right.
Maybe later.
It's okay.
Morris, I know you're hurting.
I love you no matter what.
Even if you don't talk to me.
We're going to David's bar mitzvah now.
Are you sure you don't want to come?
You know that I love you, right?
We'll be back soon.
Remember to take the new medication.
What's taking so long?
We gotta go, come on.
Let's go, let's go.
We gotta go.
Come one.
Vivian, you can't wear that dress to shul.
It's too showy.
Why? I like this one, it's so sexy.
That's one word for it.
I have a sweater for you.
Come on, we'll cover you up.
Morris, darling, please come to David's bar mitzvah.
It would make mom and dad so happy if you came.
See you later, Morris.
That's my little brother.
He's doing so good.
I'm just really proud of him.
I remember when he was a little baby
and now he's getting-
Strike two.
You guys know where Sabah is?
No.
You don't go to school with him?
All right.
Got it.
Let's go.
Thank you so much.
We appreciate it, thank you.
He's so nice.
Mazel tov.
Morris, Morris. You okay?
Morris.
Dr. David telephone please.
Honey, we've contacted your family.
They're on their way.
Do you need anything?
No, How's my brother?
The doctor will be here shortly.
- Dr. Claire. Dr. - Claire.
Are you Morris Sabah's brother?
Yes, how is he?
Did you know he swallowed an entire bottle of pills?
No I just got home.
Will he be okay?
Your brother's gone.
I'm sorry.
Gone, you mean he's dead?
Yes, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry.
Mr. and Mrs. Sabah, I regret to inform you
that your son has passed.
Please, come this way.
See Morris, you look really peaceful now.
Rest in peace my brother.
I love you.

Coach, can I just hit a few more pitches?
Yeah, give him a few more.
Good work Sabah.
You're done for the day.
Vinny, you're up.
Gomez, I want to talk to you for a minute.
So your parents, they never come to watch you play. Why?
They don't think I should take baseball seriously.
They're old fashioned I guess.
Yeah, I know what it is like.
My folks were the same way.
Never watched me play, never played past high school.
I had to get a job.
My dad, he got sick and all.
You're a great coach.
I know.
But seriously if there's anything you ever need,
you just let me know.
I love you.
I'll see you later at Pete's.
Hey, big guy, how are you?
Big guy?
Yeah, big guy.
Will you sign the baseball you hit me?
That last bomb you hit wasn't that to me?
Okay.
Here's a pen.
You're going to sign it or do I have to twist your arm?
Natalie, right?
No, Sophia.
Sophia Loren, I wish.
You're beautiful just being Natalie.
Okay, Romeo.
Are you going to come get drinks with us later?
Yeah, sure.
Great.
Hey, no, no, no.
David, you're coming with us to Pete's later, right?
Yeah. You bet.
See you there.
See you later.
Looking good out there.
PD, let me get another round for the guys here
and for this young hot, beautiful woman.
Give her three doubles because she's drinking me
under the table.
Let's get them, let's get them.
Where are you gonna play ball, David?
I don't know, maybe one of the colleges around here.
Ait guys.
Raise up your glasses.
Bottoms up.
Here's to baseball.
Come on, Dave, drink up.
Let him finish at his own pace.
What kind of role model are you, come on.
I'm sorry, I taught you what little brother.
Are you okay there kiddo?
Yeah, I'm good.
I'm doing good.
Because you were hitting some bombs today at practice,
and you were seeing the ball really good.
Thanks.
Buy you're serious?
You're thinking about playing baseball locally?
Sticking to his roots.
I like it.
You might want to think about playing ball year round.
Go out west.
I do have a sister that lives out in California.
I love this song.
Well, there you go.
I got friends out there.
They're coaches.
I'll give them a call.
David.
You're all right, you can really hit.
There she goes.
My name, it's Nikki.
Nikki, Nikki, Nikki.
Nikki, big fucking Nikki.
Biggest bat in the five barrows.
All right, muscle man, can I have this dance?
I don't really know how to dance.
Just hold me.
Come on.
You have my permission.
What about you?
What are you gonna do with you career, nothing?
I'm gonna go join the navy.
Join the navy?
Yeah, why not?
If that's what you wanna do.
I have to pee.
David, where have you been?
It's so late, we were worried.
I was out with Adam.
I didn't realize what time it was.
Holy shit, it's late.
David, don't talk like that.
What is wrong with you?
You've been drinking?
No. Okay, maybe one beer.
I was celebrating.
Celebrating what?
Adam talked to Rachael Goldberg today.
Rachael Goldberg, the girl with beautiful breasts,
yay Adam.
Hey, dad.
David, go to bed now.
Stop talking like that.
Guess what?
I hit some amazing shots in practice today.
It felt great.
Why don't you come and see me play?
Like on a weekday, it doesn't have to be on Shabbat.
Shabbat, Shabbat, Shabbat.
Make some time for me.
You're drunk David, enough talking like that.
You're with the wrong kind of people.
Grow up.
What are you saying?
Come on.
Come to a game.
Come to a game once.
Come to a game.
See your son play ball.
I think I'm about to throw up.
Hi Vivian.
Hi David, how are you?
When are you coming out here?
You've gotta play baseball in California.
You would love it.
There's so many major league scouts here.
I love you, David.
It's the best thing for you.
That's a big, big move Vivian.
There's no way mom and dad will let me.
Dad hates the idea of me playing baseball,
it's too American or something.
Screw them, it's your life.
You have to follow your dreams.
Hey, before I forget,
did you get that postcard I sent you?
Mm-hmm.
You did?
David, you're my best friends so I can tell you this.
I met the most wonderful person, romantic, sweet.
I'm tingling, I'm so happy.
Hey, you're still a virgin?
Vivian-
- No weed or pussy for my baby brother?
That's okay.
I know you're gonna be a great lover.
You can hang naturally from just playing baseball.
I can't wait for you to meet Danny.
We fuck like two cats clawing at each other.
Wow, that's amazing.
I can't wait to meet him.
Actually we're together now.
Hey, I got to go.
I'm coming home soon for your birthday.
Bye.
We missed all the great babes.
You know they like to get here early to work on their tans.
You were so late today.
I'm sorry.
It was a long game,
a lot of run scores.
Why are there not enough women on the beach
for you now to talk to one?
Hey, schmuck, it's a percentages game.
The more they are of them, the better my chances.
Really, even if you don't go over to one and talk to them?
Hey, I got no problem talking to anybody.
Really, okay.
Well that one.
Green bathing suit polka dots.
She's okay, not my type.
Not you're type.
You're a dope.
Did you win?
No.
Struck out with the bases loaded on a full count
last inning, lost 10 to 9.
Come one, it's baseball.
I suck.
Yeah, you suck.
It pisses me off.
Hey, I'll race you.
Okay, let's go.
Wow.
Why?
Right there.
It's Natalie.
Wow.
You were telling the truth man, you struck gold.
Shut up shmuck, okay,
She can hear you.
Just be cool.
I want to touch.
Hey, Natalie.
David, hi.
What are you doing here?
Just hanging out.
This is my best friend, Adam.
Hi there, nice to meet you, Adam.
I like that name.
Really? Why?
Adam and Eve, first man ever,
must've been something.
Yeah, well you know,
I never really thought of my name that way.
There you go, nice to meet you.
Nice to meet you too.
I hate to be a killjoy.
I got to go.
Lame, okay.
Does that mean you have to go too?
No, but Mr. Adam and Eve drove, so-
- That's all right, I can drive you home.
You can say.
You're sure?
Yeah, no problem.
Bye, Adam.
Nice to meet you.
Hope I see you soon too.
Yeah, I hope I see you soon too
I'll call you later David.
Later, later.
Come on, let's go.
Okay, David, tell me about yourself.
Like what?
Well, like what?
I don't know, like family.
Big brother or sisters, that kind of thing.
Okay.
I have...
How do I say this?
I have an eccentric older sister
who lives out in California,
and another sister who is younger,
who is extremely religious.
She's nice though.
Are you religious?
Religious?
Not really.
I mean, to some degree, yeah.
I don't know.
I believe in God.
I mean, I think I do.
Do you?
Do you believe in God?
That is a good question.
Do I believe in...
You know, I think it depends on what is going on
at the time that you ask.
How about now?
Now, I do, yeah.
Okay, so you have two sisters and no brothers.
What's wrong?
Nothing.
Do you want to smoke a joint?
Yeah.
Yeah?
Yeah. Here, right now?
Yeah, we can just go to the pier.
Okay. Sure.
Shit, this is good.
This is good, okay.
Yeah, it's cool if we smoke here.
Like this.
Too much. Too much. Too much.
Are you okay?
I'm okay. I just feel dizzy.
Okay, here, take it easy, okay.
There you go.
Tell me about you and baseball.
You, you're so good.
I love watching you play.
I love baseball.
When I'm playing, it's like the ultimate escape.
There's nothing else going on in the world.
It's just me, a ball, a bat, the glove.
Even if you mess up, you're going to get another chance.
It's all just kinda fair.
You know what I mean?
When I'm playing, I can zone out all the noise.
And judgements.
That's heavy.
I'm sorry.
Okay, so you like baseball?
Yeah. I like baseball.
This feels nice.
Yes, yeah. Well,
What?
I believe there is a God.
David.
David, it's me.
God, what beautiful muscles.
Can I feel?
I thought you were coming next week.
It's 2:00 in the morning.
When did you get in?
Tonight, but I met this guy I the plane.
We had a few drinks and, you know-
- I do. I know.
We got a little romantic in the bar, then I got fired,
so that's why I'm a week early.
Hi mom.
Vivian.
When did you get here?
Hi dad.
Hi, how are you? How are you?
I thought you were coming next week.
You're not happy to see me now.
Yes, of course, we are.
Have to have some tea.
Yeah, here I'll get you a fresh cup.
Thanks mom.
Hey, dad, how's business?
Everything going well?
Yeah, okay.
It's okay.
You're funny.
I'm funny.
Why?
You never tell me you love me.
You know that?
Is it because I'm divorced,
you're ashamed of me or something?
What are you talking about?
Don't be silly.
I actually have to go to work now, okay.
We can talk later.
Have you thought about that loan I asked for
for starting my dating business?
Later, honey.
Morning.
You can't give your daughter who came all the way
from California a moment of your precious time?
I need to go to work now, honey.
We'll talk about it later.
You don't love me.
What?
Nothing? Nothing.
I'm going to sleep.
Vivian, stop it.
No, I can't take it.
It's always later.
Ball two.
Come on David.
Hit a bomb, hit a bomb.
Go, go, go, go.
That's my brother.
Go, go, go.
Hey man.
Great job.
At them boy, see you later.
Hey David, that was a great game, man.
Listen, I want to introduce you
to a really good friend of mine.
This is coach Petracelli.
He's the head coach of Vista University.
Pleasure to meet you, David.
I really enjoyed watching you play.
Thank you.
What are your plans in September?
I was thinking of going to school,
maybe one of the city colleges.
Well, how would you like to come play for us?
I think you would fit in nicely.
My center fielder tore his knee cap
and he's out for the year.
So, what do you think, David?
Where?
Out west, my man.
We're a division one, four year college in Los Angeles.
David, you were great.
Fantastic.
Isn't my baby brother amazing?
Vivian, it's so good to see you.
How have you been?
Let me talk to you for a sec.
What do you think?
I think that sounds great.
Give me a call next week.
Thank you, I will.
Hey, Nikki, hurry up.
You're gonna make me late, I gotta catch a flight.
Vivian, great to see you.
Great to see you, I'll be right back.
David, man, great job.
I'm going to talk to you more, great.
Good luck.
What?
You're something else.
What does that mean?
I don't-
- What?
Nothing.
It's good, Vivian.
It's good, really.
Hey, thanks for coming and watching us play.
I wouldn't miss it for the world.
Who was that guy?
He's a friend of Giambi's.
He seemed nice.
Yeah, very nice.
Guess where he's from?
I don't know.
Oh my God.
David, oh my God.
I'm so proud of you.
I love you, David.
I love you too, Vivy.
David, where's Vinny?
He just left.
Hi.
Hey, how are you?
I'm good.
Natalie, this is my sister, Vivian.
Vivian, this is-
- Natalie. Hi.
Hi.
I've heard all about you.
She's prettier than you said.
It's nice to meet you, Vivian.
You missed a great game.
Isn't my baby brother wonderful or what?
He's fun to watch.
Vivian, you want to-
- What?
He just got offered to play at Vista U-
- In California?
Oh my God, congratulations.
That's amazing.
Thank you.
So, I hear you two are getting it on.
You hear that.
Vivian-
- She hears that.
He digs you.
You have beautiful skin.
Thank you.
And a killer body, I would kill for your body.
Thank you.
Rita it's a shame Abe couldn't make it for dinner,
I made so much food.
His parents are always calling him for something.
He should be here later.
His kids are so cute.
Just like Rita, you are so beautiful.
Thank you daddy.
Hey ma' the food was delicious.
Nothing was burned tonight.
Thank you, David.
David, did you tell them?
You did, right?
Come on.
Tell them.
Tell us what?
What are you talking about?
You know, C-A-L-I-F-O-R-N-I-A.
What are you talking about Vivian?
Don't be acting crazy.
Dave is going to play college baseball in California.
What do you think about that?
Come on, David.
Don't we set a scary cat.
What are you talking about Vivian?
A baseball coach from California saw me play
and asked me to go to school there.
I could play ball all year round.
This could be my chance.
Chance for what?
To be a baseball player, ma'.
I don't know if you know this,
but it's all I ever think about.
Well I know you like to play, but-
Have you ever seen David play baseball?
What ma'?
I don't like to play.
I love to play.
I can't think of anything else I'd rather do.
Did you ever watch Morris play baseball?
Why are you bringing up Morris right now?
Because we never talk about him anymore.
Yes, yes.
We saw David play, didn't we, Eli?
No. You never saw him play.
Since I've been home,
I've watched you him three times.
He's amazing.
Say something Eli.
Say something.
Look, you could play right here, right?
It's not the same thing ma'.
The school is right by my house.
He could stay with me until he settled, it'll be fun.
With you?
Shut up, Rita.
David, you need to stay home.
You have your family here.
You have your friends here.
This is your community.
It's not like I'll be gone forever.
You're Jewish, David. You need to keep Shabbat.
You need to get married, and have a family.
Baseball is not for you.
What do you mean not for me?
I know I'm Jewish.
You don't have to tell me that.
Just because I don't follow all the rules
doesn't make me a terrible person.
That's ridiculous.
I love Shabbat, but getting married and having a family,
okay, but I'm not there yet.
What about Hank Greenberg, Sandy Koufax?
If you know what's best for him,
you should just let him go.
That's not what's best for him.
How do you know?
I know.
Come down, Eli.
What's best for me?
You want me to come home and find another man to marry?
As if that's going to make me happy.
What's wrong with that?
You don't have a job.
You need to get settled.
You need to come home.
You have nothing there.
What do you mean I have nothing there?
You want me to come home and live here?
Are you kidding?
No, No.
We'll help you.
I'm seeing someone and we're in love.
I just need this money to start this business.
You cannot be serious about this guy, Danny.
Yes, we're serious.
Is he Jewish?
Not exactly.
What does that mean?
It means no, not Jewish,
but I'm with the nicest, most gentle person I have ever met.
Here, here, here.
Here's a picture of Danny.
Who's this?
Oh my God.
I'm gonna go give the kids a bath.
I'll come and help you.
You're a good kisser David
I am?
Yes, no one ever told you that before?
Yeah, sure.
God, you're so cute.
Come here, sit.
Close your eyes.
No peeking.
You like classical music?
Yeah, you don't.
I can change it.
No, it's fine.
I'm just surprised.
Why, I don't seem like the type?
It helps me relax.
I can change them if you want.
No, it's cool.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
Does the music bother you?
No, it's okay.
You're arms are so beautiful.
What's wrong?
What's wrong.
Are you not attracted to me?
No, you're beautiful.
I'm just thinking.
About what?
Wait, David, do you want to talk?
What's wrong.
I don't-
- David.
Hey, hey, talk to me.
What's going on?
I had a brother.
He was much older than me, and he killed himself.
Oh my God.
Oh my God, I'm so sorry.
He was mentally ill.
All he ever did was read classical literature,
and listened to opera and classical music.
I'm sorry.
No, it's okay.
Are you sure?
Sometimes I feel guilty like I shouldn't enjoy life.
Like I should suffer or something.
Maybe I could have helped out more.
Sometimes I blame my parents.
I know that nobody's to blame.
David, I'm so sorry.
Why didn't you ever tell me?
I never talk about it with anyone.
I'm sorry.
No, no, no.
It's okay David.
David, David, David.
Hey, hey, okay, okay, okay, look.
You can't control everything.
You deserve to be happy.
It was not your fault.
Look, let's just hang out tonight.
no pressure.
I'm sorry.
It's okay.
Hey, mom. Hey, dad.
David.
What's going on?
We need to talk.
Please sit.
Okay, what are we gonna talk about?
Your dad's upset.
What's wrong with dad?
He's ulcer is acting up.
He's very angry with you.
Dad, what's wrong?
We don't want you to go to California.
There are plenty of colleges right here.
I know there are plenty of colleges here,
but I have an opportunity,
and I want to take advantage of it.
I want to see if I can make something of this.
This is something that I love.
You'll grow out of it.
What?
Be practical.
Go into business.
Enough fooling around, David, enough.
Hey, honey, calm down or you'll make yourself sick.
You think I'm just fooling around?
You think this is just something fun that I do?
You have no idea how I feel when I play baseball.
Maybe it's how you feel when you make a big sale
or business is good, or something like that.
I don't know.
You probably never felt like this.
I work fucking hard at it.
You don't talk like that here.
You're not with your baseball friends now.
What the...
What does that mean?
You just, you don't get it.
I don't get it.
You just want to do whatever you want to do.
Just give up everything that we ever gave you.
Family, religion.
I work so hard, so hard to raise a family,
to send you to the best schools, just to throw it all away?
Calm down, Eli, please.
Sit. Sit, please.
David, we want you to be happy.
You have your home here.
You have your family.
Your friends are here and you can still play baseball here,
right here.
Right, Eli?
It isn't the same thing.
I need to get away.
What does that mean?
Away from us?
I need some freedom to be on my own,
to have a new taste of life, to meet new people.
Vivian said that you have a girlfriend that's not Jewish.
What are you trying to do to me?
Are you trying to kill me?
You must not get involved
with anyone outside of our religion.
Do you understand that?
I will disown you if you do.
Eli, I'm sure she was just joking, please.
What are you talking about?
David, please.
Your father and I-
- I can't believe this.
You want to give up your religion?
I want you to meet with rabbi Stein.
I told him that you're going to call him.
What are you talking about?
This is nuts.
You want me to support you
just going around in California?
That's not what you went to Yeshiva for.
You left home when you were younger than me
and your religious.
What good is it anyway?
I'm not talking to rabbi , forget about-
- Enough David, enough.
I'm sorry, but you really don't know me.
I'm going to bed.
David, you will change your mind.
You'll see.
You've never seen me play baseball.
Not even once, not even one time.
My mind is made up.
You're quiet today.
What's going on?
You're thinking about the other night, or?
Nothing's going on.
Hey,
stop lying to me.
Natalie,
I decided to go to California and go to school,
and play ball.
Oh my God, that's great.
Congratulations.
What's wrong?
Your parents don't want you to go, or?
Would you come with me?
What?
Would you, think about coming with me to California.
Okay.
David, I really like being with you,
but my whole life is here.
I can't just go out there and start over.
Why not?
You have a job here that you hate.
Your dad's not around much.
Vinny is off in school.
Hey, come with me.
I'll get a part time job.
I'll go to school, play ball,
and you can get a job there too.
It'll be amazing.
And then what?
Then we have babies together?
What-
- Wait, well, who said anything about babies?
I mean, maybe we could. I don't-
- Okay, David, no, I can't.
I can't.
Look, I think you're really sweet,
and I also think that you need to go do this,
or you're always gonna wonder
what it could've been like.
I don't want to hold you back.
You're not going to hold me back.
We can have it all.
No, David, I can't.
Well, what do you mean?
I need to go.
What?
I can't get too serious right now with you or with anyone?
I'm sorry.
We're together, right?
Maybe we shouldn't be.
What are you saying?
Nothing, look, nothing.
I'm sorry.
Look I have to go, but let's just be cool about this.
We can talk about it later.
It's not-
- I love-
But all in that same moment.
She understood everything.
Crime and punishment, Fyodor Dostoevsky,
page 549.
Sabah, go run some sprints.
Okay guys, take some fly balls.
Sabah, you're hitting next.
Come on David.
That's all right, that's all right.
Come on David, let's go.
Nice and easy David.
I know you can hit.
Relax, this is just a practice.
All right David.
Come on David.
Way to go David.
That's my brother.
That's my paper.
Wow, yeah.
That's my brother. That's my brother.
He can hit.
Good job, David. Now, get in the outfield
and do some more sprints.
This looks divine, babe.
You're a great cook Vivian, thanks.
Thank you.
The veggies are from my little garden in the back.
I love it here.
Don't you love it here, David?
Yeah.
You're making any friends, David?
A couple.
It's kind of hard so far.
I'm supposed to hang out with some of the guys
later tonight.
How's the baseball?
A lot of really great players.
I hope I can just get a starting position.
Don't be silly.
You can't be negative David.
Vivian, this tastes so, so good.
You taste so, so good.
I am so blessed to be joined
by two of my most favorite people in the whole world.
I love you both more than you'll ever know.
We love you too.
Thank you, Vivian.
Sit, sit.
This feels good.
I have to look for a new job tomorrow.
I thought you had a new job.
I did, but I quit today.
Why?
Because my boss is woman.
She's a real cunt.
At first I liked her.
I thought she liked me.
She even hit on me once.
Maybe that's it.
Don't worry about it.
Hey, I talked to the dorm people, and they said,
it'll be ready to move in next week.
No, you can stay here as long as you want.
I love having you here.
Thank you.
Morris used to listen to this.
I took some of his records.
It helps me remember him.
I miss him.
What the fuck.
What the fuck is going on?
What is wrong with you?
Are you out of your mind?
God.
I'm getting the fuck out of here.
Sabah, coach tells me you're starting today.
Really?
Yeah, you're playing center and batting first.
Let's go.
Okay, David here we go.
Strike.
Good job.
Yes, great.
Hi.
So, how was your day?
It was good.
I'm thinking of going on a diet.
Why, you don't need to lose weight.
I think Danny thinks I'm fat.
What? That sounds...
I don't think you're fat at all.
Thanks, David.
How was your day?
Actually, my best day yet.
I had three hits.
Almost hit it out of the park.
Started and played center.
That's great, and sweet.
Danny and I are going to the movies.
You want to come?
No, thanks.
I'm just going to relax here and watch some TV.
Like I said earlier,
the dorm is going to be ready for me next week.
Okay, listen about last night.
I'm sorry.
I was out of control, it was the.
Can we just not talk about it?
Please, let's just forget it.
Why did you ring.
I always leave the door open when I know you're coming.
I just felt like ringing today.
What's with my suitcase?
That's right,
we talked about you staying over for the weekend.
But I thought you had that yoga seminar
or something on Sunday.
No, I'm not going.
So that's great.
Come on.
If we want to make the movie.
We have to run.
Can you come with me upstairs when I get ready.
David's just going to chill here.
No, Vivian, I don't feel like a movie tonight.
So cool. I can make some fresh fish
and then we can drink some wine and cuddle
and then beautiful sex and-
- I can't do this anymore.
I'm sorry.
I'm really sorry.
These are some of your things that you left in my place.
Is this a joke?
What are you talking about?
It this about my brother?
No, no, not at all.
He's cool.
And you're sweet and thoughtful.
I met a guy while you were in New York.
We've been hanging out a little bit and I like him.
I like being with a guy again.
It just feels more normal to me.
So I'm not normal?
What the fuck are you talking about?
I didn't say that.
Why don't we...
We can hang out all together and see how that feels.
I mean, just the other day you said you loved me.
I know.
It's over now.
Listen, I got to go.
My friend is waiting.
What's his name?
Douglas.
Yeah, he's really cool.
I got to go.
Go, you fucking cunt.
Go suck, Mr. Dougie's big fucking prick,
you fucking asshole.
Get the fuck out my house.
Vivian, Vivian, Vivian.
Vivian.
Vivian, are you okay?
Wake up.
Come on, let's go at the beach.
The sun is coming up.
What time is it?
Time to get up and go.
Come on, come on.
Throw on anything.
Let's go quick.
I made some breakfast, and you have some hot coffee.
You're sure you're leaving now?
Absolutely.
Come on.
It's beautiful, isn't it?
Yeah, it is.
You know he used to love the ocean.
Who?
Morris.
When he was a little boy he used to tell me
how he wanted to die in the ocean someday.
Roll around the water and just let the sea feel his heart.
Really?
I'm going to go climb that cliff.
I'll come with you.
I wanna be alone.
Sure?
Knock them out of the park for me?
Vivian.
Vivian, no.
Dear David, please take care of yourself.
I love you.
Tell mom and dad and Rita, I love them.
Love Vivian.
Hello.
Natalie, hi.
David. Hi.
I'm running out the door right now.
Can you just call me back later?
I can't call you back later.
Can you just give me a minute?
I've been trying to reach you.
Yeah, I've been busy, David.
I'm working overtime on these crazy hours
and my boss is out of town,
so I'm handling his shit.
It's not like going out to California and-
- I'm here in Brooklyn.
Vivian died.
She killed herself.
Oh my God.
I'm so sorry.
David, I really am.
Can I see you while I'm here?
Yeah. Yes, yes, of course.
I really have to go right now, but call me later.
I miss you.
I miss you too.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
It's so good to see you.
You look good.
Thanks.
What's that?
Sneak out the back.
Come on get over.
Come on.
I'm trying.
Try harder.
You're throwing like shit.
Let's go.
What the fuck is wrong with you?
Keep throwing, let's go.
Holy shit.
That could have killed me.
No man, you're hitting too hard.
I hit too hard?
It's enough.
I hit too... Come on you pussy, pitch.
I can't.
God.
Strike.
Strike two.
Strike three, you're out.
