- Subtitles by explosiveskull
- 2
- 00:00:49,466 --> 00:00:50,935
- Can I get you
- anything else today?
- 3
- 00:00:52,768 --> 00:00:55,336
- That's a nice necklace.
- 4
- 00:00:55,338 --> 00:00:56,974
- Thanks.
- It was my grandmother's.
- 5
- 00:00:58,308 --> 00:01:00,374
- My mom gave it to me.
- 6
- 00:01:00,376 --> 00:01:02,743
- Beautiful ring, too.
- 7
- 00:01:02,745 --> 00:01:03,948
- Thanks.
- 8
- 00:01:05,681 --> 00:01:07,649
- It seems valuable.
- 9
- 00:01:07,651 --> 00:01:09,553
- I don't know about that.
- 10
- 00:01:11,321 --> 00:01:13,554
- But it is to me though.
- 11
- 00:01:13,556 --> 00:01:17,561
- I've worn it every day
- since she passed it on to me.
- 12
- 00:01:19,496 --> 00:01:21,529
- When are you due?
- 13
- 00:01:21,531 --> 00:01:23,434
- In January.
- 14
- 00:01:24,567 --> 00:01:26,401
- Do you know
- if it's a boy or girl?
- 15
- 00:01:26,403 --> 00:01:27,702
- No.
- 16
- 00:01:27,704 --> 00:01:29,506
- It's a surprise.
- 17
- 00:01:31,841 --> 00:01:33,309
- A mystery.
- 18
- 00:01:35,511 --> 00:01:36,713
- Yeah.
- 19
- 00:01:39,848 --> 00:01:41,416
- Well...
- 20
- 00:01:41,418 --> 00:01:43,351
- I can get you change.
- 21
- 00:01:43,353 --> 00:01:45,018
- It's all yours.
- 22
- 00:01:45,020 --> 00:01:47,021
- Thank you.
- 23
- 00:01:47,023 --> 00:01:48,423
- God bless.
- 24
- 00:01:48,425 --> 00:01:49,923
- You, too.
- 25
- 00:01:49,925 --> 00:01:50,893
- Thanks.
- 26
- 00:04:10,033 --> 00:04:12,032
- - Yes?
- - Hi.
- 27
- 00:04:12,034 --> 00:04:14,604
- I'm Daniel Coleman,
- from Assembly Mutual.
- 28
- 00:04:32,856 --> 00:04:35,492
- What are you looking at?
- 29
- 00:04:55,844 --> 00:04:58,813
- If there is anything
- you want specifically noted
- 30
- 00:04:58,815 --> 00:05:02,519
- as being in need of proper
- appraisal, just let me know.
- 31
- 00:05:04,854 --> 00:05:07,188
- I thought that's
- what you were here to do.
- 32
- 00:05:07,190 --> 00:05:09,657
- I'm here to make sure
- the value of your home
- 33
- 00:05:09,659 --> 00:05:13,027
- is more or less what your
- granddaughter Bethany assumes.
- 34
- 00:05:13,029 --> 00:05:16,963
- Anything like furniture or art.
- You know, little odd pieces...
- 35
- 00:05:16,965 --> 00:05:18,799
- - Rare books would have to be...
- - Rare books?
- 36
- 00:05:18,801 --> 00:05:19,967
- Yeah.
- 37
- 00:05:19,969 --> 00:05:22,869
- Come on.
- Have a look around.
- 38
- 00:05:22,871 --> 00:05:25,708
- You think I got anything
- like that laying around?
- 39
- 00:05:27,042 --> 00:05:29,309
- I don't know.
- You probably don't know either.
- 40
- 00:05:29,311 --> 00:05:33,179
- We'd have to get somebody
- who deals more with appraisals
- 41
- 00:05:33,181 --> 00:05:35,715
- to come in and let me know
- what the value is.
- 42
- 00:05:35,717 --> 00:05:37,684
- Well, the place itself,
- 43
- 00:05:37,686 --> 00:05:40,253
- it's gotta be worth
- more money.
- 44
- 00:05:40,255 --> 00:05:42,789
- Now, certainly.
- But it doesn't matter.
- 45
- 00:05:42,791 --> 00:05:44,991
- You know why?
- 46
- 00:05:44,993 --> 00:05:47,861
- Because they'll just tear
- it down and build it again.
- 47
- 00:05:47,863 --> 00:05:50,698
- I just went through that.
- On both sides of me.
- 48
- 00:05:50,700 --> 00:05:52,633
- You still live here, though.
- 49
- 00:05:52,635 --> 00:05:54,869
- Well, what am I
- supposed to do, move?
- 50
- 00:05:54,871 --> 00:05:56,671
- Because they closed
- my spots?
- 51
- 00:05:56,673 --> 00:05:58,575
- Sure.
- People have moved for less.
- 52
- 00:06:00,008 --> 00:06:01,979
- I raised my family here.
- 53
- 00:06:03,111 --> 00:06:05,715
- My wife, my two kids.
- 54
- 00:06:06,683 --> 00:06:08,585
- My wife died here.
- 55
- 00:06:10,787 --> 00:06:12,989
- It was not easy.
- And you know what?
- 56
- 00:06:14,022 --> 00:06:17,794
- It's home,
- and I still like it.
- 57
- 00:06:22,065 --> 00:06:23,534
- What are you writing?
- 58
- 00:06:25,034 --> 00:06:27,268
- Just that,
- as best as I can tell,
- 59
- 00:06:27,270 --> 00:06:29,837
- nothing conflicts with what
- Bethany claimed was here.
- 60
- 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:31,672
- I told her,
- "Get a Dumpster."
- 61
- 00:06:31,674 --> 00:06:33,808
- There are things
- she might want to keep.
- 62
- 00:06:33,810 --> 00:06:36,010
- For sentimental reasons.
- 63
- 00:06:36,012 --> 00:06:38,912
- Well, then she
- should be here.
- 64
- 00:06:38,914 --> 00:06:41,248
- She was going to be. Last-minute thing.
- I couldn't reschedule...
- 65
- 00:06:41,250 --> 00:06:45,018
- Of course. Last-minute thing.
- She had to change her schedule.
- 66
- 00:06:45,020 --> 00:06:48,289
- How come nobody thought to ask
- me if I'd change my schedule?
- 67
- 00:06:48,291 --> 00:06:51,258
- You know, there's no need. In fact,
- you don't even need to be here.
- 68
- 00:06:51,260 --> 00:06:53,326
- A lot of the times I'm not
- even brought in until after.
- 69
- 00:06:53,328 --> 00:06:54,897
- After?
- 70
- 00:06:55,832 --> 00:06:57,734
- After I'm dead?
- 71
- 00:07:01,837 --> 00:07:03,638
- That, uh...
- 72
- 00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:06,373
- You could put that one down.
- I haven't read that yet.
- 73
- 00:07:06,375 --> 00:07:08,743
- I thought everything
- was trash.
- 74
- 00:07:08,745 --> 00:07:11,315
- Well, it is, or will be.
- 75
- 00:07:23,258 --> 00:07:26,126
- Do you mind
- if I take a picture of you?
- 76
- 00:07:26,128 --> 00:07:27,962
- Why?
- 77
- 00:07:27,964 --> 00:07:30,300
- - I don't know.
- - Be my guest.
- 78
- 00:07:31,967 --> 00:07:33,900
- I'm not a relic.
- 79
- 00:07:33,902 --> 00:07:35,871
- Wow.
- 80
- 00:07:39,308 --> 00:07:41,945
- - What, I break your camera?
- - No.
- 81
- 00:07:42,779 --> 00:07:44,214
- It's a great shot.
- 82
- 00:07:45,113 --> 00:07:46,149
- Thank you.
- 83
- 00:07:47,784 --> 00:07:49,719
- Why are you still
- looking around?
- 84
- 00:07:51,453 --> 00:07:53,220
- Isn't all the stuff
- adding up?
- 85
- 00:07:53,222 --> 00:07:56,123
- It all adds up, Mr. Ashmore.
- 86
- 00:07:56,125 --> 00:08:00,193
- Everything
- is mathematically consistent
- 87
- 00:08:00,195 --> 00:08:04,097
- with a widower in his 80s
- who collects pension regularly.
- 88
- 00:08:04,099 --> 00:08:07,100
- And what if it all turns out
- to be nothing?
- 89
- 00:08:07,102 --> 00:08:08,436
- You still get paid?
- 90
- 00:08:08,438 --> 00:08:10,270
- I still get paid.
- 91
- 00:08:10,272 --> 00:08:12,138
- The next guy, the appraiser,
- 92
- 00:08:12,140 --> 00:08:15,109
- he only gets a percentage
- of whatever this stuff is worth.
- 93
- 00:08:15,111 --> 00:08:18,212
- But he only comes if I
- determine it'll be worthwhile.
- 94
- 00:08:18,214 --> 00:08:19,847
- And is it?
- 95
- 00:08:19,849 --> 00:08:23,017
- There are a few pieces
- that should be looked at.
- 96
- 00:08:23,019 --> 00:08:24,818
- Well.
- 97
- 00:08:24,820 --> 00:08:27,724
- Then it ain't
- all trash, is it?
- 98
- 00:08:28,924 --> 00:08:31,127
- Thank you for having me,
- Mr. Ashmore.
- 99
- 00:08:32,728 --> 00:08:36,129
- Hey, you got
- a handshake, bud.
- 100
- 00:08:36,131 --> 00:08:38,431
- No one
- shakes hands anymore.
- 101
- 00:08:38,433 --> 00:08:40,401
- Might you
- be coming back?
- 102
- 00:08:40,403 --> 00:08:42,272
- No, I don't think so.
- 103
- 00:08:47,175 --> 00:08:48,911
- You can take that.
- You can have it.
- 104
- 00:08:50,413 --> 00:08:52,812
- I think
- I read this one already.
- 105
- 00:08:52,814 --> 00:08:54,284
- Have a good day.
- 106
- 00:09:21,977 --> 00:09:24,448
- I knew he wasn't gonna be able
- to deal with this on his own.
- 107
- 00:09:26,314 --> 00:09:28,014
- I knew it.
- 108
- 00:09:28,016 --> 00:09:31,284
- I knew he wasn't gonna be able
- to go through all of his stuff.
- 109
- 00:09:31,286 --> 00:09:35,791
- I mean, no one's gonna fly
- in there and do it for him.
- 110
- 00:09:37,459 --> 00:09:39,192
- "Thanks, Bethany."
- 111
- 00:09:39,194 --> 00:09:41,394
- You gotta understand
- where he's coming from, though.
- 112
- 00:09:41,396 --> 00:09:43,931
- I don't want us to end up
- with every single little thing...
- 113
- 00:09:43,933 --> 00:09:46,867
- I wasn't talking
- about every single piece.
- 114
- 00:09:46,869 --> 00:09:49,869
- I was talking
- about one thing, okay?
- 115
- 00:09:49,871 --> 00:09:53,941
- Just... Just one thing
- that he could maybe say,
- 116
- 00:09:53,943 --> 00:09:56,176
- "Hey, this means a lot to me, and
- I'd like for you to have it."
- 117
- 00:09:56,178 --> 00:09:58,878
- Just one thing. It doesn't
- even have to be of value.
- 118
- 00:09:58,880 --> 00:10:00,281
- There could
- still be something.
- 119
- 00:10:00,283 --> 00:10:02,416
- I'm recommending a walk-through
- with an appraiser.
- 120
- 00:10:02,418 --> 00:10:05,119
- I probably can't be there, but you
- guys should be there for that.
- 121
- 00:10:05,121 --> 00:10:07,421
- Nothing major, but...
- 122
- 00:10:07,423 --> 00:10:09,455
- You know, with folks
- like your grandfather,
- 123
- 00:10:09,457 --> 00:10:12,125
- there's always a chance that
- underneath ten years of magazines,
- 124
- 00:10:12,127 --> 00:10:14,396
- there's a table
- worth $10,000.
- 125
- 00:10:21,504 --> 00:10:24,274
- I don't like to think
- about my grandfather dying.
- 126
- 00:10:27,909 --> 00:10:29,609
- I really, really don't.
- 127
- 00:10:29,611 --> 00:10:32,549
- And you being here can only
- reinforce the notion that...
- 128
- 00:10:35,183 --> 00:10:37,319
- sometime soon
- that's gonna happen.
- 129
- 00:10:57,539 --> 00:10:58,638
- Have a seat.
- 130
- 00:10:58,640 --> 00:11:00,075
- Thanks.
- 131
- 00:11:03,379 --> 00:11:06,817
- So let's say he does decide there's
- something he wants to bestow.
- 132
- 00:11:08,885 --> 00:11:11,554
- While that's all warm and fuzzy,
- I have to ask the question:
- 133
- 00:11:13,289 --> 00:11:15,192
- Is anything worth anything?
- 134
- 00:11:16,259 --> 00:11:17,427
- What, um...
- 135
- 00:11:18,995 --> 00:11:21,030
- What do you want
- from your grandfather?
- 136
- 00:11:27,470 --> 00:11:29,372
- I don't think
- there's anything left.
- 137
- 00:11:31,439 --> 00:11:34,343
- I mean, I got all of it.
- Or Dad did.
- 138
- 00:11:36,544 --> 00:11:38,244
- And I couldn't really say
- 139
- 00:11:38,246 --> 00:11:41,148
- when the whole "if you want it,
- take it" attitude started.
- 140
- 00:11:41,150 --> 00:11:44,417
- But, boy, I'll tell you.
- 141
- 00:11:44,419 --> 00:11:48,955
- His whole "you can't even
- wait until I'm dead" period started
- 142
- 00:11:48,957 --> 00:11:51,060
- right around
- the time Grandma died.
- 143
- 00:11:57,198 --> 00:11:59,068
- He's not a very generous man.
- 144
- 00:12:01,636 --> 00:12:03,106
- Honestly...
- 145
- 00:12:04,340 --> 00:12:06,243
- I think he's probably right.
- 146
- 00:12:08,110 --> 00:12:10,176
- It's all just trash, you know.
- 147
- 00:12:10,178 --> 00:12:12,546
- It's all just become part
- of the decor of the place.
- 148
- 00:12:12,548 --> 00:12:14,517
- That's why it's so easy
- for him to be...
- 149
- 00:12:15,418 --> 00:12:17,618
- surrounded by it.
- 150
- 00:12:17,620 --> 00:12:22,690
- I don't think any specific thing
- has a particular meaning,
- 151
- 00:12:22,692 --> 00:12:24,394
- an individual meaning.
- 152
- 00:12:31,467 --> 00:12:33,734
- But it doesn't mean
- it's not related.
- 153
- 00:12:33,736 --> 00:12:36,003
- You know? Just...
- 154
- 00:12:36,005 --> 00:12:38,107
- It's some, um...
- 155
- 00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:40,376
- some middle.
- 156
- 00:12:41,077 --> 00:12:42,279
- You know?
- 157
- 00:12:44,246 --> 00:12:46,613
- Maybe that's, um,
- 158
- 00:12:46,615 --> 00:12:50,520
- one of the advantages
- of living a long life...
- 159
- 00:12:52,621 --> 00:12:57,391
- is you outgrow the tendency
- to assign emotional meaning
- 160
- 00:12:57,393 --> 00:12:59,029
- to a piece of paper.
- 161
- 00:13:05,201 --> 00:13:08,271
- Well, we should
- all be so lucky.
- 162
- 00:13:11,039 --> 00:13:12,541
- You don't have
- to outgrow.
- 163
- 00:13:15,644 --> 00:13:17,710
- Me, I'm hardly the person
- to tell people
- 164
- 00:13:17,712 --> 00:13:21,181
- that it's wise to accumulate
- more things in their homes,
- 165
- 00:13:21,183 --> 00:13:26,420
- but you should remain open to the
- possibility that something...
- 166
- 00:13:26,422 --> 00:13:28,122
- it could be anything...
- 167
- 00:13:28,124 --> 00:13:31,226
- of your grandfather's has
- remained unseen by him for years.
- 168
- 00:13:32,395 --> 00:13:33,563
- And you...
- 169
- 00:13:34,429 --> 00:13:35,731
- maybe forever.
- 170
- 00:13:39,501 --> 00:13:41,303
- Undiscovered.
- 171
- 00:13:43,172 --> 00:13:45,041
- A box of love letters.
- 172
- 00:13:46,042 --> 00:13:47,310
- Diaries.
- 173
- 00:13:48,276 --> 00:13:49,979
- Photographs.
- 174
- 00:13:52,515 --> 00:13:54,317
- Lives lived.
- 175
- 00:13:59,587 --> 00:14:03,389
- So it all falls on me
- because I live the closest?
- 176
- 00:14:03,391 --> 00:14:05,462
- That seems to be
- the way it works.
- 177
- 00:14:09,731 --> 00:14:12,235
- He's lucky
- to have you nearby.
- 178
- 00:14:17,073 --> 00:14:18,741
- - I'll walk you out.
- - Yeah.
- 179
- 00:14:24,813 --> 00:14:27,147
- - Hey. Pleasure.
- - Oh.
- 180
- 00:14:27,149 --> 00:14:29,351
- - Thank you. Have a good day.
- - Thanks.
- 181
- 00:14:33,521 --> 00:14:35,624
- - Everything will be okay.
- - Thanks.
- 182
- 00:16:40,415 --> 00:16:42,983
- Oh! Are you
- the insurance man?
- 183
- 00:16:42,985 --> 00:16:45,418
- Daniel Coleman.
- You must be Helen Greare.
- 184
- 00:16:45,420 --> 00:16:46,820
- Yes.
- 185
- 00:16:46,822 --> 00:16:49,690
- I'd invite you in,
- but there is no "in."
- 186
- 00:16:52,794 --> 00:16:55,428
- - So?
- - So sorry.
- 187
- 00:16:55,430 --> 00:16:59,368
- Yeah. This is my home.
- 188
- 00:17:02,638 --> 00:17:04,374
- This is my kitchen.
- 189
- 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:13,449
- This is the living room.
- 190
- 00:17:21,290 --> 00:17:22,955
- This is
- the powder room here.
- 191
- 00:17:22,957 --> 00:17:24,393
- So, uh, what happened?
- 192
- 00:17:27,463 --> 00:17:28,398
- You know...
- 193
- 00:17:29,531 --> 00:17:32,302
- I used to be
- very sloppy about...
- 194
- 00:17:33,569 --> 00:17:36,969
- changing the batteries
- on the fire alarms.
- 195
- 00:17:36,971 --> 00:17:39,805
- Ned was always the one
- that did it.
- 196
- 00:17:39,807 --> 00:17:42,275
- I would wait until I heard
- the beeping and then say,
- 197
- 00:17:42,277 --> 00:17:45,579
- "Oh, the batteries
- ought to be changed."
- 198
- 00:17:45,581 --> 00:17:49,448
- But he did it
- before they started beeping.
- 199
- 00:17:49,450 --> 00:17:53,986
- Every 90 days,
- like it says on the package.
- 200
- 00:17:53,988 --> 00:17:57,427
- But I'm better now.
- I've had to learn how to do it.
- 201
- 00:17:58,660 --> 00:18:00,961
- So, the fire department
- still doesn't know
- 202
- 00:18:00,963 --> 00:18:03,629
- if it was just, like,
- a spark that went wrong
- 203
- 00:18:03,631 --> 00:18:06,632
- or, you know,
- 204
- 00:18:06,634 --> 00:18:11,571
- roll of paper towel left
- too close to the pilot light,
- 205
- 00:18:11,573 --> 00:18:14,675
- or what.
- 206
- 00:18:14,677 --> 00:18:16,642
- You probably know
- all this already.
- 207
- 00:18:16,644 --> 00:18:18,678
- Well, the details,
- they're helpful.
- 208
- 00:18:18,680 --> 00:18:20,546
- Okay.
- 209
- 00:18:20,548 --> 00:18:23,750
- Do you know why the fire
- department was so delayed?
- 210
- 00:18:23,752 --> 00:18:26,586
- Something about
- an electrical malfunction.
- 211
- 00:18:26,588 --> 00:18:30,090
- Oh. They were called,
- like, 20 minutes
- 212
- 00:18:30,092 --> 00:18:33,859
- before the O'Bryans
- came home, 11:00 p.m.
- 213
- 00:18:33,861 --> 00:18:36,032
- Response time is supposed to be...
- Oh, I don't know.
- 214
- 00:18:37,599 --> 00:18:39,002
- I understand.
- 215
- 00:18:42,571 --> 00:18:46,042
- When the wind took
- the fire to the O'Bryans...
- 216
- 00:18:47,543 --> 00:18:49,978
- that was when I had this moment.
- 217
- 00:18:52,014 --> 00:18:54,917
- You know, just an awful feeling.
- 218
- 00:18:59,721 --> 00:19:01,023
- I knew...
- 219
- 00:19:02,990 --> 00:19:06,659
- I need to go inside
- and do that thing
- 220
- 00:19:06,661 --> 00:19:09,765
- that people wonder about
- their whole life.
- 221
- 00:19:11,467 --> 00:19:14,637
- Decide what you take
- from a burning building.
- 222
- 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,678
- I mean, it's easier when it's
- just a hypothetical question...
- 223
- 00:19:23,812 --> 00:19:26,646
- instead of when you see the...
- 224
- 00:19:26,648 --> 00:19:28,517
- the tree...
- 225
- 00:19:30,119 --> 00:19:34,920
- that touches both your home
- and the one next door
- 226
- 00:19:34,922 --> 00:19:36,659
- is on fire.
- 227
- 00:19:39,695 --> 00:19:41,794
- It's just chaos at that point.
- 228
- 00:19:41,796 --> 00:19:43,932
- People in their yards,
- screaming.
- 229
- 00:19:45,601 --> 00:19:49,436
- The police were here,
- but a lot of good that did.
- 230
- 00:19:49,438 --> 00:19:52,608
- They were the ones
- that came in after me.
- 231
- 00:19:54,509 --> 00:19:58,080
- I got, like, one minute
- in my house...
- 232
- 00:19:59,448 --> 00:20:01,580
- before they came
- and took me out.
- 233
- 00:20:04,585 --> 00:20:06,688
- Felt like ten seconds.
- 234
- 00:20:16,598 --> 00:20:21,571
- Well, the rings and broaches
- belonged to my great-grandmother.
- 235
- 00:20:23,104 --> 00:20:26,138
- Standing out here, they were
- the first things I pictured.
- 236
- 00:20:26,140 --> 00:20:31,447
- I made for them like it
- wasn't even a conscious decision.
- 237
- 00:20:32,848 --> 00:20:35,615
- So now I'm upstairs,
- 238
- 00:20:35,617 --> 00:20:38,851
- and already I can hear
- the police calling my name.
- 239
- 00:20:38,853 --> 00:20:41,591
- They're inside, downstairs.
- 240
- 00:20:43,057 --> 00:20:46,126
- So, wouldn't
- it have been smart
- 241
- 00:20:46,128 --> 00:20:48,628
- for me to take
- this whole chest?
- 242
- 00:20:48,630 --> 00:20:51,601
- Oh, God. I don't know.
- I can't tell you why.
- 243
- 00:20:53,502 --> 00:20:56,602
- I knew that if I was gonna take
- anything else, it had to be now.
- 244
- 00:20:56,604 --> 00:20:59,505
- From this room,
- our bedroom.
- 245
- 00:20:59,507 --> 00:21:03,209
- And that's when I...
- 246
- 00:21:03,211 --> 00:21:05,147
- saw this on the mantel.
- 247
- 00:21:07,716 --> 00:21:10,486
- It was Ned's baseball.
- 248
- 00:21:11,887 --> 00:21:14,553
- He wasn't a player
- or anything.
- 249
- 00:21:14,555 --> 00:21:16,892
- It just was
- family history.
- 250
- 00:21:18,025 --> 00:21:19,993
- The ball.
- 251
- 00:21:19,995 --> 00:21:23,996
- His father gave it to him.
- It's from the '40s.
- 252
- 00:21:23,998 --> 00:21:25,898
- You know?
- 253
- 00:21:25,900 --> 00:21:29,836
- If you asked me now who won what
- game with it, I couldn't tell you.
- 254
- 00:21:29,838 --> 00:21:33,776
- It was just "the ball."
- 255
- 00:21:35,043 --> 00:21:38,915
- He always spoke about it
- with such pride.
- 256
- 00:21:39,948 --> 00:21:41,516
- Such value.
- 257
- 00:21:43,217 --> 00:21:44,187
- Um...
- 258
- 00:21:48,689 --> 00:21:51,992
- It was instinct.
- It fit in my pocket.
- 259
- 00:21:51,994 --> 00:21:54,664
- That's when they came in
- and took me.
- 260
- 00:22:00,067 --> 00:22:03,705
- When Ned died...
- 261
- 00:22:04,939 --> 00:22:09,809
- um, the first thing
- that Henry, my son,
- 262
- 00:22:09,811 --> 00:22:11,977
- said was,
- "What about the ball?"
- 263
- 00:22:11,979 --> 00:22:15,581
- I mean, when we sat down
- to go over the estate, you know.
- 264
- 00:22:15,583 --> 00:22:18,017
- He said, "What about
- the ball?"
- 265
- 00:22:18,019 --> 00:22:19,721
- He wanted it.
- 266
- 00:22:21,122 --> 00:22:24,991
- It was his birthright,
- as far as he was concerned.
- 267
- 00:22:24,993 --> 00:22:26,926
- I said,
- "Well, he could have it,"
- 268
- 00:22:26,928 --> 00:22:30,597
- but I just needed to keep
- on looking at it for a while.
- 269
- 00:22:30,599 --> 00:22:32,735
- I wasn't ready
- to not see it there.
- 270
- 00:22:34,636 --> 00:22:38,040
- It's been in some prominent place
- in every home we've ever had.
- 271
- 00:22:39,908 --> 00:22:44,910
- I told Henry when I moved,
- it would be his.
- 272
- 00:22:44,912 --> 00:22:49,518
- 'Cause I knew that this house,
- eventually, would be too much for me.
- 273
- 00:22:51,786 --> 00:22:55,024
- I just didn't know that there
- wasn't gonna be an "eventually."
- 274
- 00:23:00,595 --> 00:23:02,896
- It could be worth more
- than the house.
- 275
- 00:23:02,898 --> 00:23:04,598
- For claim purposes.
- 276
- 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:08,801
- If it is insured and you
- would have left it behind,
- 277
- 00:23:08,803 --> 00:23:12,237
- I'd be writing you a check next
- week for the amount of, uh...
- 278
- 00:23:12,239 --> 00:23:14,174
- Well, it'd be substantial.
- 279
- 00:23:14,176 --> 00:23:15,311
- Ah.
- 280
- 00:23:18,246 --> 00:23:22,752
- Things that mattered more to
- me, to the children, are gone.
- 281
- 00:23:24,620 --> 00:23:28,088
- But I have Ned's ball.
- 282
- 00:23:28,090 --> 00:23:31,894
- I don't understand it
- or know what to do with it.
- 283
- 00:23:32,861 --> 00:23:34,296
- I have it.
- 284
- 00:23:37,765 --> 00:23:39,799
- - Helen?
- - Oh, hi.
- 285
- 00:23:39,801 --> 00:23:43,637
- This is Mrs. Singer. Jane Singer.
- This is the insurance man.
- 286
- 00:23:43,639 --> 00:23:47,640
- Oh, very nice to meet you. Would you both
- like to come and have a cup of coffee?
- 287
- 00:23:47,642 --> 00:23:50,644
- We've been kind of playing
- welcome center these days.
- 288
- 00:23:50,646 --> 00:23:53,312
- - Oh, that'll be nice. Okay.
- - Good? Oh, good.
- 289
- 00:23:53,314 --> 00:23:56,081
- - Thanks.
- - Oh, our pleasure. I'll just leave the door open.
- 290
- 00:23:56,083 --> 00:23:58,019
- Okay.
- Thank you, Jane.
- 291
- 00:24:04,325 --> 00:24:08,029
- The insurance covers the
- home, the car, the valuables.
- 292
- 00:24:09,063 --> 00:24:14,167
- It's the stuff
- that's left out.
- 293
- 00:24:14,169 --> 00:24:19,304
- We've lived here, um,
- just over four years.
- 294
- 00:24:19,306 --> 00:24:25,078
- So our restructuring and cleansing
- and pawning off to the kids
- 295
- 00:24:25,080 --> 00:24:27,213
- was done then.
- 296
- 00:24:27,215 --> 00:24:30,250
- We didn't get the worst of it.
- 297
- 00:24:30,252 --> 00:24:33,990
- Helen, I... I can't imagine
- how it is for you.
- 298
- 00:24:38,325 --> 00:24:41,261
- Thirty years.
- 299
- 00:24:41,263 --> 00:24:43,929
- We moved here
- when Lisa was three
- 300
- 00:24:43,931 --> 00:24:46,134
- and Henry was seven.
- 301
- 00:24:50,839 --> 00:24:52,805
- Did anything make it out?
- 302
- 00:24:52,807 --> 00:24:55,041
- Well, we were very lucky
- 303
- 00:24:55,043 --> 00:24:58,712
- because Riley had
- a safe in his office.
- 304
- 00:24:58,714 --> 00:25:01,851
- And not a small one either.
- It was about this big.
- 305
- 00:25:03,884 --> 00:25:08,021
- And our valuables and irreplaceable
- heirlooms, and, um...
- 306
- 00:25:08,023 --> 00:25:10,122
- My family's...
- 307
- 00:25:10,124 --> 00:25:13,827
- My family's immigration papers.
- Things over a hundred years old.
- 308
- 00:25:13,829 --> 00:25:16,161
- We put them all in there.
- Thank God.
- 309
- 00:25:16,163 --> 00:25:18,330
- It was
- a Father's Day gift.
- 310
- 00:25:18,332 --> 00:25:21,269
- Kind of frivolous,
- but I-I wanted it.
- 311
- 00:25:23,170 --> 00:25:26,741
- I always dreamt of having
- a nice study with a safe.
- 312
- 00:25:28,176 --> 00:25:31,043
- Well, when I got the study,
- they bought me the safe.
- 313
- 00:25:31,045 --> 00:25:33,279
- It was mostly
- entertaining.
- 314
- 00:25:33,281 --> 00:25:38,051
- I love pushing
- the buttons and...
- 315
- 00:25:38,053 --> 00:25:40,790
- resetting the code
- out of boredom.
- 316
- 00:25:42,224 --> 00:25:45,958
- Never dreamed it
- would come in handy.
- 317
- 00:25:45,960 --> 00:25:50,062
- I'm usually listening to people lament
- that they never bothered to lock it.
- 318
- 00:25:50,064 --> 00:25:53,099
- What you're describing
- is actually quite uncommon.
- 319
- 00:25:53,101 --> 00:25:57,870
- Not that there was anything
- of extreme monetary value,
- 320
- 00:25:57,872 --> 00:26:00,976
- aside from my rings
- and silver.
- 321
- 00:26:02,977 --> 00:26:06,314
- But you know how it is.
- It's the personal things.
- 322
- 00:26:07,282 --> 00:26:08,514
- Personal things.
- 323
- 00:26:08,516 --> 00:26:10,917
- I'm really glad
- we put 'em in there.
- 324
- 00:26:10,919 --> 00:26:15,455
- It's fine. We used to
- hide little surprises in there.
- 325
- 00:26:15,457 --> 00:26:17,991
- As a... As a joke.
- 326
- 00:26:17,993 --> 00:26:23,263
- So if anybody needs a bobblehead
- from the 1995 All-Star Game,
- 327
- 00:26:23,265 --> 00:26:26,499
- Anna put two in there to get back
- at me the day before the blaze.
- 328
- 00:26:29,537 --> 00:26:31,937
- I shouldn't laugh.
- 329
- 00:26:31,939 --> 00:26:33,808
- Well...
- 330
- 00:26:35,476 --> 00:26:38,077
- - We should hit the road.
- - No. Don't be silly.
- 331
- 00:26:38,079 --> 00:26:40,282
- Please, stay,
- as long as you want.
- 332
- 00:26:42,249 --> 00:26:45,019
- We're staying about 50 miles
- away, with our daughter.
- 333
- 00:26:46,188 --> 00:26:48,521
- You're...
- You're welcome to stay.
- 334
- 00:26:48,523 --> 00:26:52,992
- I've got a drive to look forward to.
- Thank you.
- 335
- 00:26:52,994 --> 00:26:55,765
- - Daniel, can I ask you something?
- - Please.
- 336
- 00:26:57,966 --> 00:27:02,505
- What does it do to a person
- to take all of this in?
- 337
- 00:27:03,839 --> 00:27:05,508
- All due respect to Helen...
- 338
- 00:27:07,309 --> 00:27:10,042
- this is pretty common,
- right?
- 339
- 00:27:10,044 --> 00:27:13,413
- You're clearly not hearing anything
- that you haven't heard before.
- 340
- 00:27:13,415 --> 00:27:16,014
- You're just sitting there. You're
- barely reacting to anything of this...
- 341
- 00:27:16,016 --> 00:27:18,150
- - Jim, Please. That's rude.
- - No.
- 342
- 00:27:18,152 --> 00:27:20,219
- It's okay. I understand.
- 343
- 00:27:20,221 --> 00:27:21,420
- You're right.
- 344
- 00:27:21,422 --> 00:27:24,456
- It's best to not become
- terribly invested.
- 345
- 00:27:24,458 --> 00:27:27,126
- I'm not a doctor or anything.
- 346
- 00:27:27,128 --> 00:27:31,630
- My proximity to tragedy
- is a smidge further away
- 347
- 00:27:31,632 --> 00:27:35,270
- than somebody who truly
- has to develop a barrier.
- 348
- 00:27:36,237 --> 00:27:38,807
- But to be honest...
- 349
- 00:27:40,074 --> 00:27:42,311
- it never
- hurts me personally.
- 350
- 00:27:44,278 --> 00:27:46,414
- And it never gets old.
- 351
- 00:27:48,650 --> 00:27:52,153
- Every story has details
- I've never heard before.
- 352
- 00:27:53,487 --> 00:27:57,092
- Every person I talk to,
- I learn something new.
- 353
- 00:28:00,394 --> 00:28:03,097
- Not many people get to say that
- about their jobs.
- 354
- 00:28:08,637 --> 00:28:11,040
- You will never replace
- your things.
- 355
- 00:28:13,675 --> 00:28:15,311
- Or lives.
- 356
- 00:28:20,247 --> 00:28:21,283
- But...
- 357
- 00:28:22,117 --> 00:28:25,321
- I find something...
- 358
- 00:28:27,288 --> 00:28:29,121
- magnetic...
- 359
- 00:28:29,123 --> 00:28:31,957
- talking to people like yourself,
- 360
- 00:28:31,959 --> 00:28:36,465
- who could have easily have been
- trapped inside a burning house...
- 361
- 00:28:37,532 --> 00:28:38,634
- and know it.
- 362
- 00:28:41,101 --> 00:28:44,169
- Or people who feel some relief
- 363
- 00:28:44,171 --> 00:28:48,611
- that the belongings they've accumulated
- have avoided similar fates.
- 364
- 00:28:51,111 --> 00:28:52,413
- And here's the thing.
- 365
- 00:28:55,950 --> 00:28:58,621
- Nobody wants
- to be talking to me.
- 366
- 00:29:00,255 --> 00:29:02,224
- And I think
- knowing that...
- 367
- 00:29:04,191 --> 00:29:06,428
- makes my job a lot easier.
- 368
- 00:30:53,200 --> 00:30:54,736
- Lives lived.
- 369
- 00:31:58,332 --> 00:32:00,166
- Hey, Mom. We're getting
- ready to hit the hay.
- 370
- 00:32:00,168 --> 00:32:01,801
- You need anything else
- for tonight?
- 371
- 00:32:01,803 --> 00:32:03,272
- No, thanks.
- 372
- 00:32:04,471 --> 00:32:05,840
- Everything okay?
- 373
- 00:32:07,374 --> 00:32:09,678
- What do you think?
- 374
- 00:32:12,546 --> 00:32:14,679
- - Good night, Mom.
- - Good night.
- 375
- 00:32:14,681 --> 00:32:15,784
- Good night.
- 376
- 00:33:26,787 --> 00:33:29,254
- You'll never
- be able to get me!
- 377
- 00:33:33,594 --> 00:33:36,561
- Hey, boys, settle down.
- Shh, shh, shh.
- 378
- 00:33:41,401 --> 00:33:43,602
- - There you are.
- - Hi.
- 379
- 00:33:43,604 --> 00:33:46,371
- I wanted to ask you. Um...
- 380
- 00:33:46,373 --> 00:33:49,908
- That photograph in the
- guest room of Christmas,
- 381
- 00:33:49,910 --> 00:33:51,977
- is that 2008?
- 382
- 00:33:51,979 --> 00:33:54,480
- Uh, actually,
- I think it was 2010.
- 383
- 00:33:54,482 --> 00:33:56,919
- Oh. Yeah.
- 384
- 00:33:58,785 --> 00:34:01,753
- I was looking at it
- this morning when I woke up.
- 385
- 00:34:01,755 --> 00:34:04,523
- Holidays have
- been nice here, though.
- 386
- 00:34:04,525 --> 00:34:06,958
- Oh, yeah. But...
- 387
- 00:34:06,960 --> 00:34:10,997
- Well, I love coming here
- to see the boys.
- 388
- 00:34:10,999 --> 00:34:14,966
- But, you know,
- Ned never had Christmas here.
- 389
- 00:34:14,968 --> 00:34:21,774
- His... I mean, you bought the
- house after he was here.
- 390
- 00:34:21,776 --> 00:34:24,876
- It's been long enough
- that I...
- 391
- 00:34:24,878 --> 00:34:28,847
- I just assumed
- I was through giving things up.
- 392
- 00:34:28,849 --> 00:34:30,952
- Now this morning I realized...
- 393
- 00:34:32,052 --> 00:34:33,919
- more to give up.
- 394
- 00:34:33,921 --> 00:34:38,724
- It's the second Saturday. You know,
- we had second Saturday cards.
- 395
- 00:34:38,726 --> 00:34:44,296
- So I guess there'll be no more
- cards with friends at my house.
- 396
- 00:34:44,298 --> 00:34:46,465
- Hmm. But cards are light.
- 397
- 00:34:46,467 --> 00:34:48,566
- You can
- take 'em anywhere.
- 398
- 00:34:48,568 --> 00:34:49,704
- Yeah.
- 399
- 00:34:50,704 --> 00:34:53,338
- But it's...
- 400
- 00:34:53,340 --> 00:34:54,842
- not about the cards.
- 401
- 00:34:55,809 --> 00:34:57,878
- Okay. Thank you.
- 402
- 00:35:09,923 --> 00:35:11,726
- I didn't mean it like that.
- 403
- 00:35:12,994 --> 00:35:14,760
- You could've fooled me.
- 404
- 00:35:14,762 --> 00:35:17,430
- I'm not
- being insensitive.
- 405
- 00:35:17,432 --> 00:35:20,802
- You're just reacting because
- you're afraid it's inevitable.
- 406
- 00:35:21,903 --> 00:35:23,702
- Assisted living?
- 407
- 00:35:23,704 --> 00:35:27,673
- It is completely
- independent cottages.
- 408
- 00:35:27,675 --> 00:35:30,675
- But in a facility
- with employees, staff.
- 409
- 00:35:30,677 --> 00:35:33,646
- Only if you need anything
- or want something.
- 410
- 00:35:33,648 --> 00:35:36,981
- Even just a ride somewhere. Sometimes
- maybe you don't want to drive yourself.
- 411
- 00:35:36,983 --> 00:35:41,454
- I like driving myself.
- I'm fine driving myself.
- 412
- 00:35:41,456 --> 00:35:43,988
- You have to have thought about
- where you're gonna live.
- 413
- 00:35:43,990 --> 00:35:46,124
- - The insurance money is...
- - Yeah, you're right.
- 414
- 00:35:46,126 --> 00:35:48,561
- It's a lot.
- It's quite a bit.
- 415
- 00:35:48,563 --> 00:35:50,829
- But you're cash poor.
- 416
- 00:35:50,831 --> 00:35:53,966
- I am accustomed
- to having my own house.
- 417
- 00:35:53,968 --> 00:35:56,535
- Well, your house
- burned down,
- 418
- 00:35:56,537 --> 00:35:58,570
- and you can't
- live there anymore!
- 419
- 00:35:58,572 --> 00:36:02,041
- I don't mean to yell.
- But come on.
- 420
- 00:36:02,043 --> 00:36:04,477
- Mom, things are not the same
- as they were before.
- 421
- 00:36:04,479 --> 00:36:08,012
- Things have changed.
- You need a plan. We need...
- 422
- 00:36:08,014 --> 00:36:10,149
- Well, you know,
- I can sell some things.
- 423
- 00:36:10,151 --> 00:36:12,921
- Stop. Don't sell anything.
- 424
- 00:36:16,990 --> 00:36:19,892
- I mean,
- the jewelry alone is...
- 425
- 00:36:19,894 --> 00:36:21,760
- You don't want it.
- 426
- 00:36:21,762 --> 00:36:24,065
- I mean, Lisa might, but...
- 427
- 00:36:25,432 --> 00:36:26,932
- We can take care of you.
- 428
- 00:36:28,903 --> 00:36:31,570
- You've just been saying
- that you won't.
- 429
- 00:36:31,572 --> 00:36:34,943
- That's not what I said. And you
- know that's not what I said.
- 430
- 00:36:38,713 --> 00:36:40,782
- Those belong to you.
- 431
- 00:36:41,749 --> 00:36:43,749
- Lisa wants 'em.
- 432
- 00:36:43,751 --> 00:36:47,019
- She's never admitted to you
- how badly she wants 'em.
- 433
- 00:36:47,021 --> 00:36:48,856
- Trust me.
- 434
- 00:36:54,961 --> 00:36:56,995
- You're just like him.
- 435
- 00:36:56,997 --> 00:36:59,568
- Always telling me what to do.
- 436
- 00:37:17,718 --> 00:37:19,488
- I love you, Mom.
- 437
- 00:37:21,856 --> 00:37:25,727
- Don't feel like you have a limit
- on how long you can stay here.
- 438
- 00:37:30,164 --> 00:37:31,633
- Thanks.
- 439
- 00:37:57,057 --> 00:37:59,191
- She just needs more time.
- 440
- 00:37:59,193 --> 00:38:01,129
- She has to process it.
- 441
- 00:38:02,762 --> 00:38:04,632
- I know, but how much?
- 442
- 00:38:05,566 --> 00:38:07,666
- She has to understand by now
- 443
- 00:38:07,668 --> 00:38:13,204
- that pretending things will somehow go back
- to the way they were before is ludicrous.
- 444
- 00:38:13,206 --> 00:38:14,840
- She's an old lady
- 445
- 00:38:14,842 --> 00:38:19,144
- who spent decades
- looking at these objects.
- 446
- 00:38:19,146 --> 00:38:22,717
- She still thinks of herself as
- living in or with these objects.
- 447
- 00:38:26,521 --> 00:38:29,021
- I just wish she could have
- gotten more of Dad's things.
- 448
- 00:38:29,023 --> 00:38:32,461
- Then maybe she wouldn't feel
- so untethered.
- 449
- 00:38:33,961 --> 00:38:37,095
- You know, she told me
- that the logs in the fireplace
- 450
- 00:38:37,097 --> 00:38:39,298
- still had kindling
- under them and everything
- 451
- 00:38:39,300 --> 00:38:41,901
- - from the last fire that your dad built.
- - Mm-hmm.
- 452
- 00:38:41,903 --> 00:38:45,037
- She thinks that because
- they'd been there for ten years,
- 453
- 00:38:45,039 --> 00:38:47,640
- it somehow made the fire worse,
- like a bomb.
- 454
- 00:38:47,642 --> 00:38:50,742
- She loved that fireplace.
- 455
- 00:38:50,744 --> 00:38:52,611
- She loved everything.
- 456
- 00:38:52,613 --> 00:38:55,314
- Once he was gone,
- she'd never let it be used.
- 457
- 00:38:55,316 --> 00:38:57,048
- Dad's fire.
- 458
- 00:38:57,050 --> 00:38:58,953
- The last fire he built.
- 459
- 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,089
- Such a bummer.
- 460
- 00:39:05,892 --> 00:39:07,195
- I know her.
- 461
- 00:39:08,996 --> 00:39:11,129
- I know she can't have
- half the jewelry
- 462
- 00:39:11,131 --> 00:39:13,832
- without thinking
- of the other half.
- 463
- 00:39:13,834 --> 00:39:18,236
- She can't have the car without
- thinking of everything in the garage.
- 464
- 00:39:18,238 --> 00:39:20,939
- - She won't get rid of it.
- - She's insinuating.
- 465
- 00:39:20,941 --> 00:39:24,776
- I know she'd never
- go through with it.
- 466
- 00:39:24,778 --> 00:39:29,347
- She's too attached
- to everything it represents.
- 467
- 00:39:29,349 --> 00:39:31,816
- It's just like his ball.
- 468
- 00:39:31,818 --> 00:39:35,854
- It's some thing
- that makes no sense to her
- 469
- 00:39:35,856 --> 00:39:40,061
- but that she doesn't have the
- ability to detach herself from.
- 470
- 00:39:44,599 --> 00:39:46,030
- No.
- 471
- 00:39:46,032 --> 00:39:47,932
- I'll know for certain
- 472
- 00:39:47,934 --> 00:39:52,070
- the day she seriously considers getting
- rid of the jewelry or the ball
- 473
- 00:39:52,072 --> 00:39:53,974
- is the day I eat my hat.
- 474
- 00:39:55,977 --> 00:39:57,876
- I almost wish she could.
- 475
- 00:39:57,878 --> 00:40:01,914
- I'd like the ball, just as Lisa
- would like everything else.
- 476
- 00:40:04,352 --> 00:40:06,184
- But for Mom's sake,
- 477
- 00:40:06,186 --> 00:40:08,989
- I almost wish she'd get rid
- of the stuff.
- 478
- 00:40:11,726 --> 00:40:15,126
- She's gonna drag it around
- with her, like an albatross?
- 479
- 00:40:15,128 --> 00:40:17,765
- I'd be happier for her
- to see it all gone.
- 480
- 00:40:19,166 --> 00:40:21,100
- Riley?
- 481
- 00:40:21,102 --> 00:40:23,301
- Hi. It's Helen.
- 482
- 00:40:23,303 --> 00:40:25,403
- I-I hope
- I didn't wake you up.
- 483
- 00:40:25,405 --> 00:40:27,207
- I'm sorry to call so late.
- 484
- 00:40:28,275 --> 00:40:29,975
- Oh, good.
- 485
- 00:40:29,977 --> 00:40:31,580
- Listen, um...
- 486
- 00:40:32,813 --> 00:40:35,713
- I wanted to ask you
- about that gentleman
- 487
- 00:40:35,715 --> 00:40:37,850
- that you mentioned
- the other night,
- 488
- 00:40:37,852 --> 00:40:41,323
- the re-saler
- that your daughter found.
- 489
- 00:40:42,356 --> 00:40:44,659
- Appraiser. I see. Yeah.
- 490
- 00:40:46,026 --> 00:40:47,294
- Oh, sure.
- 491
- 00:40:52,967 --> 00:40:55,235
- And you found him
- really helpful?
- 492
- 00:40:59,173 --> 00:41:01,209
- Las Vegas?
- 493
- 00:41:02,276 --> 00:41:03,345
- Oh.
- 494
- 00:41:05,311 --> 00:41:06,780
- Uh-huh.
- 495
- 00:41:08,715 --> 00:41:10,682
- Well, no, I wouldn't...
- 496
- 00:41:10,684 --> 00:41:14,221
- I wouldn't send anything really
- valuable in the mail either.
- 497
- 00:41:16,691 --> 00:41:18,356
- Well...
- 498
- 00:41:18,358 --> 00:41:20,191
- I'm... I'm not sure.
- 499
- 00:41:20,193 --> 00:41:23,128
- It's not definite yet.
- I just...
- 500
- 00:41:23,130 --> 00:41:26,932
- Well, you know,
- I just thought that I...
- 501
- 00:41:26,934 --> 00:41:30,839
- What could it hurt if I gave him a
- call and see what he says, right?
- 502
- 00:41:32,907 --> 00:41:34,338
- Okay.
- 503
- 00:41:34,340 --> 00:41:36,140
- Yeah, thanks a lot, huh?
- 504
- 00:41:36,142 --> 00:41:39,179
- And listen, tell Anna...
- You know, send her my love.
- 505
- 00:41:40,280 --> 00:41:41,983
- Okay. Thank you.
- 506
- 00:41:42,450 --> 00:41:44,015
- Bye.
- 507
- 00:43:19,046 --> 00:43:21,381
- These are our remainders.
- 508
- 00:43:25,218 --> 00:43:28,553
- Of our lives, of many forms.
- 509
- 00:43:28,555 --> 00:43:30,224
- Emotional.
- 510
- 00:43:31,191 --> 00:43:32,392
- Physical.
- 511
- 00:43:35,296 --> 00:43:38,133
- These are our artifacts.
- 512
- 00:43:40,534 --> 00:43:42,470
- Our scars.
- 513
- 00:43:44,604 --> 00:43:46,273
- Objects.
- 514
- 00:43:49,343 --> 00:43:50,979
- Memories.
- 515
- 00:43:56,883 --> 00:43:59,219
- Items that are tangible.
- 516
- 00:44:00,220 --> 00:44:01,789
- Memorable.
- 517
- 00:44:03,523 --> 00:44:05,559
- We live our lives and ask...
- 518
- 00:44:07,260 --> 00:44:09,530
- "What do we leave behind?"
- 519
- 00:44:11,331 --> 00:44:14,298
- When we look at the pictures
- long enough,
- 520
- 00:44:14,300 --> 00:44:16,236
- they reappear.
- 521
- 00:44:18,005 --> 00:44:20,874
- What is the value of anything?
- 522
- 00:44:30,985 --> 00:44:34,255
- Can what we hold in our hands
- be the same...
- 523
- 00:44:35,389 --> 00:44:38,055
- as what we hold in our hearts?
- 524
- 00:44:57,311 --> 00:45:01,082
- Um, hello, Mr. Bleam.
- This is Helen Greare...
- 525
- 00:45:03,082 --> 00:45:08,289
- calling to confirm what time
- it would be good for us to meet.
- 526
- 00:45:28,508 --> 00:45:29,644
- Can I help you?
- 527
- 00:45:32,146 --> 00:45:34,345
- I'm Helen Greare.
- 528
- 00:45:34,347 --> 00:45:37,515
- Oh, yes. Oh, my gosh.
- I'm so sorry. Of course.
- 529
- 00:45:37,517 --> 00:45:39,216
- It's nice to meet you.
- 530
- 00:45:39,218 --> 00:45:40,519
- - Hi. Welcome.
- - Thank you.
- 531
- 00:45:40,521 --> 00:45:42,354
- Will Bleam.
- Come on in, please.
- 532
- 00:45:42,356 --> 00:45:45,157
- Uh, have a seat.
- Let's see what you've got here.
- 533
- 00:45:45,159 --> 00:45:47,425
- - I know it's a lot.
- - It's a lot.
- 534
- 00:45:47,427 --> 00:45:48,961
- Right?
- 535
- 00:45:48,963 --> 00:45:52,030
- Most of the stuff I get
- is from people like you.
- 536
- 00:45:52,032 --> 00:45:54,599
- But I also get, you know,
- some conventions,
- 537
- 00:45:54,601 --> 00:46:00,472
- and, uh, you know, trips I take
- and other stores, what have you.
- 538
- 00:46:00,474 --> 00:46:02,740
- And sometimes the families
- of players reach out...
- 539
- 00:46:02,742 --> 00:46:06,345
- - Please, please, have a seat.
- - Thank you.
- 540
- 00:46:06,347 --> 00:46:08,546
- But honestly, mostly my
- reputation, at this point,
- 541
- 00:46:08,548 --> 00:46:11,385
- gets most of the heavy
- lifting done, so...
- 542
- 00:46:12,619 --> 00:46:14,521
- Uh, let's take a look
- at what you have.
- 543
- 00:46:16,256 --> 00:46:18,256
- People my age
- come to Las Vegas
- 544
- 00:46:18,258 --> 00:46:22,697
- to gamble away their pensions
- and their life savings.
- 545
- 00:46:24,030 --> 00:46:27,365
- Mm-hmm.
- 546
- 00:46:27,367 --> 00:46:30,369
- Well, you have come to unburden
- yourself in a different way, huh?
- 547
- 00:46:34,541 --> 00:46:36,678
- So, why don't you tell me...
- 548
- 00:46:37,778 --> 00:46:40,012
- how you came across this.
- 549
- 00:46:40,014 --> 00:46:45,017
- Um, my husband's father
- got it,
- 550
- 00:46:45,019 --> 00:46:47,651
- um, from his father.
- 551
- 00:46:47,653 --> 00:46:50,555
- And I think it was given
- to him at a game.
- 552
- 00:46:50,557 --> 00:46:53,225
- And it's been
- in the family ever since.
- 553
- 00:46:53,227 --> 00:46:58,062
- Huh. Well, the good news is I can
- almost guarantee you it's authentic.
- 554
- 00:46:58,064 --> 00:47:02,033
- - Yeah.
- - Um, you know, there's not a lot of things like this
- 555
- 00:47:02,035 --> 00:47:06,671
- that are in families for generation after
- generation that turn out to be fake.
- 556
- 00:47:06,673 --> 00:47:08,673
- Yep. Why is that?
- 557
- 00:47:08,675 --> 00:47:11,108
- Well, honestly,
- something like this,
- 558
- 00:47:11,110 --> 00:47:13,544
- it was just a more
- honest time back then.
- 559
- 00:47:13,546 --> 00:47:15,814
- There wasn't as much money
- to be made from collectibles.
- 560
- 00:47:15,816 --> 00:47:17,783
- That sort of thing.
- 561
- 00:47:17,785 --> 00:47:20,651
- The only thing we generally have to be
- careful for is a situation like this,
- 562
- 00:47:20,653 --> 00:47:22,620
- where somebody passes away.
- 563
- 00:47:22,622 --> 00:47:26,158
- They're going through their
- valuables, and it's mostly artwork.
- 564
- 00:47:26,160 --> 00:47:29,160
- You know, I just can't go
- out 10,000, $20,000 out
- 565
- 00:47:29,162 --> 00:47:31,562
- on something that might
- be proven to be false.
- 566
- 00:47:31,564 --> 00:47:33,564
- - Oh, no, there's no chance.
- - Of course not.
- 567
- 00:47:33,566 --> 00:47:35,633
- Not with this.
- I understand.
- 568
- 00:47:35,635 --> 00:47:38,503
- Uh, that said, if we're looking
- at something like this,
- 569
- 00:47:38,505 --> 00:47:42,744
- we are probably looking at
- something like 80,000 to 100,000.
- 570
- 00:47:44,378 --> 00:47:46,278
- Um...
- 571
- 00:47:46,280 --> 00:47:48,245
- it's in excellent
- condition,
- 572
- 00:47:48,247 --> 00:47:51,483
- and, uh, Ted Williams
- autographs are very scarce,
- 573
- 00:47:51,485 --> 00:47:54,419
- especially on an
- actual piece of equipment.
- 574
- 00:47:54,421 --> 00:47:56,390
- - Do you know who Ted Williams is?
- - No.
- 575
- 00:47:57,523 --> 00:48:01,626
- Well, it's a terrific piece.
- 576
- 00:48:01,628 --> 00:48:04,729
- And the people who specialize
- in collecting this era,
- 577
- 00:48:04,731 --> 00:48:07,769
- they know what price point
- they're getting into.
- 578
- 00:48:09,802 --> 00:48:13,204
- I guess everything here
- has a story, huh?
- 579
- 00:48:13,206 --> 00:48:14,409
- Yes.
- 580
- 00:48:15,508 --> 00:48:16,707
- Yes. And, you know,
- 581
- 00:48:16,709 --> 00:48:19,778
- I try to relate that
- to the buyers.
- 582
- 00:48:19,780 --> 00:48:22,247
- And some of them
- are actually eager to learn.
- 583
- 00:48:22,249 --> 00:48:23,881
- - Mm-hmm.
- - You know?
- 584
- 00:48:23,883 --> 00:48:29,287
- But also sometimes my buyers
- come in looking for a gift.
- 585
- 00:48:29,289 --> 00:48:32,657
- You know? And so,
- to that person,
- 586
- 00:48:32,659 --> 00:48:34,595
- the object
- just sort of appears...
- 587
- 00:48:36,497 --> 00:48:38,762
- on their birthday
- or their anniversary
- 588
- 00:48:38,764 --> 00:48:40,365
- or their retirement.
- 589
- 00:48:40,367 --> 00:48:41,302
- You get what I'm saying?
- 590
- 00:48:43,570 --> 00:48:46,204
- - Well...
- - Saying good-bye is hard.
- 591
- 00:48:46,206 --> 00:48:47,508
- I know that.
- 592
- 00:48:49,510 --> 00:48:53,245
- And you-you shouldn't, you know,
- feel ridiculous about that either.
- 593
- 00:48:53,247 --> 00:48:57,615
- - No.
- - It's... It's-It's difficult.
- 594
- 00:48:57,617 --> 00:49:00,353
- What was your husband's
- name, if I may ask?
- 595
- 00:49:02,356 --> 00:49:03,424
- Ned.
- 596
- 00:49:05,291 --> 00:49:07,427
- Edward Roger Greare.
- 597
- 00:49:11,197 --> 00:49:12,930
- I bet Ned liked
- to talk about the ball.
- 598
- 00:49:12,932 --> 00:49:14,399
- Oh!
- 599
- 00:49:14,401 --> 00:49:16,734
- I bet he... I bet he liked
- to talk about it a lot.
- 600
- 00:49:16,736 --> 00:49:18,702
- Tell the same story
- over and over again.
- 601
- 00:49:18,704 --> 00:49:19,803
- - Yes.
- - Right?
- 602
- 00:49:19,805 --> 00:49:21,907
- And it's my understanding
- 603
- 00:49:21,909 --> 00:49:23,675
- from the brief conversations
- that we've had
- 604
- 00:49:23,677 --> 00:49:25,876
- that you didn't retain
- the legend of the ball.
- 605
- 00:49:25,878 --> 00:49:27,178
- - Is that correct?
- - No.
- 606
- 00:49:27,180 --> 00:49:29,213
- No. Right.
- And that's okay too.
- 607
- 00:49:29,215 --> 00:49:31,216
- - It's not your ball.
- - Mm-hmm.
- 608
- 00:49:31,218 --> 00:49:33,852
- Ned loved the story
- of the ball.
- 609
- 00:49:33,854 --> 00:49:38,423
- And you selling it to me doesn't... doesn't
- change that, doesn't take it away.
- 610
- 00:49:38,425 --> 00:49:39,360
- You know?
- 611
- 00:49:41,227 --> 00:49:42,359
- Yeah.
- 612
- 00:49:42,361 --> 00:49:44,863
- Um, do you have
- any children?
- 613
- 00:49:44,865 --> 00:49:46,530
- Two.
- 614
- 00:49:46,532 --> 00:49:49,236
- You know, would either
- of them maybe want this?
- 615
- 00:49:50,803 --> 00:49:53,370
- Perhaps. Maybe.
- 616
- 00:49:53,372 --> 00:49:57,742
- Okay. Well, when you...
- If you decide to...
- 617
- 00:49:57,744 --> 00:50:00,881
- But when you
- tell them, uh...
- 618
- 00:50:02,515 --> 00:50:03,847
- Worst-case scenario,
- 619
- 00:50:03,849 --> 00:50:07,755
- they may be upset
- with you for a moment.
- 620
- 00:50:09,923 --> 00:50:12,356
- But...
- 621
- 00:50:12,358 --> 00:50:16,727
- best-case scenario,
- I think they will understand
- 622
- 00:50:16,729 --> 00:50:20,267
- and realize that you doing this
- was the best for you.
- 623
- 00:50:21,767 --> 00:50:25,269
- Because you have so many
- other things to remember Ned
- 624
- 00:50:25,271 --> 00:50:26,671
- other than this ball.
- 625
- 00:50:26,673 --> 00:50:28,508
- Right?
- 626
- 00:50:32,412 --> 00:50:33,648
- Right.
- 627
- 00:50:39,519 --> 00:50:41,686
- Do you have children?
- 628
- 00:50:41,688 --> 00:50:42,956
- No.
- 629
- 00:50:43,990 --> 00:50:45,659
- Are you married?
- 630
- 00:50:47,727 --> 00:50:49,426
- Not recently, no. No.
- 631
- 00:50:49,428 --> 00:50:51,863
- Uh, she...
- 632
- 00:50:51,865 --> 00:50:53,832
- she left me.
- 633
- 00:50:53,834 --> 00:50:55,469
- Why?
- 634
- 00:50:57,271 --> 00:50:59,539
- Well, uh...
- 635
- 00:51:01,340 --> 00:51:03,675
- She came in one day and said
- that she had had enough.
- 636
- 00:51:03,677 --> 00:51:04,812
- She didn't love me anymore.
- 637
- 00:51:08,814 --> 00:51:12,383
- It was right around the time
- when I started with this place.
- 638
- 00:51:12,385 --> 00:51:13,688
- And I was...
- 639
- 00:51:15,488 --> 00:51:17,824
- pretty unavailable,
- to say the least.
- 640
- 00:51:19,425 --> 00:51:21,561
- But still a bit of a shock.
- 641
- 00:51:25,731 --> 00:51:28,666
- Uh, about nine years ago.
- 642
- 00:51:28,668 --> 00:51:30,704
- Still trying
- to make sense of it.
- 643
- 00:51:38,778 --> 00:51:40,447
- Well...
- 644
- 00:51:42,448 --> 00:51:44,316
- it's just a thing.
- 645
- 00:51:46,385 --> 00:51:48,019
- You've never
- seen it before,
- 646
- 00:51:48,021 --> 00:51:51,555
- and by tomorrow,
- it'll be up on that shelf.
- 647
- 00:51:51,557 --> 00:51:56,093
- And maybe by next week,
- it'll be gone already.
- 648
- 00:51:56,095 --> 00:52:00,501
- Or maybe it'll sit here
- for a year or maybe two years.
- 649
- 00:52:03,503 --> 00:52:04,705
- And...
- 650
- 00:52:07,807 --> 00:52:09,610
- you won't remember me.
- 651
- 00:52:11,644 --> 00:52:14,611
- When people come
- and sit where I'm sitting
- 652
- 00:52:14,613 --> 00:52:16,448
- and feel what I'm feeling...
- 653
- 00:52:20,019 --> 00:52:23,687
- you'll just be able to tell them,
- with a little more confidence,
- 654
- 00:52:23,689 --> 00:52:27,794
- that what they're feeling
- is common.
- 655
- 00:52:29,796 --> 00:52:31,032
- Yeah.
- 656
- 00:52:32,365 --> 00:52:34,634
- You won't remember Helen.
- 657
- 00:52:35,735 --> 00:52:36,903
- Ned's wife.
- 658
- 00:52:39,439 --> 00:52:41,375
- With Ned's ball.
- 659
- 00:52:44,010 --> 00:52:46,914
- You'll just know
- that these things happen.
- 660
- 00:52:48,414 --> 00:52:52,950
- And widows and... and children
- 661
- 00:52:52,952 --> 00:52:54,986
- have a hard time.
- 662
- 00:52:54,988 --> 00:52:57,421
- And you give them money.
- 663
- 00:52:57,423 --> 00:52:58,659
- And...
- 664
- 00:52:59,825 --> 00:53:02,063
- the money does make it easier.
- 665
- 00:53:03,130 --> 00:53:04,532
- A bit.
- 666
- 00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:08,336
- And that's okay.
- 667
- 00:53:10,736 --> 00:53:12,539
- Because, um...
- 668
- 00:53:18,644 --> 00:53:20,514
- Ned's gone.
- 669
- 00:53:27,854 --> 00:53:30,424
- And now so is his ball.
- 670
- 00:53:33,894 --> 00:53:35,129
- Oh.
- 671
- 00:53:45,472 --> 00:53:47,742
- - Thank you.
- - Mm-hmm. Thank you.
- 672
- 00:54:05,791 --> 00:54:07,727
- Bleam Collectibles.
- This is Will speaking.
- 673
- 00:54:09,061 --> 00:54:10,997
- Hey, Chris,
- how's it going?
- 674
- 00:54:14,568 --> 00:54:16,604
- Yes, I did. I thought
- you'd be interested.
- 675
- 00:54:17,938 --> 00:54:20,874
- Yeah, it's very fresh.
- It's still warm, in fact.
- 676
- 00:54:23,776 --> 00:54:26,544
- I think it was
- on her husband's side.
- 677
- 00:54:29,115 --> 00:54:31,886
- Uh...
- 678
- 00:54:33,019 --> 00:54:33,954
- Yeah.
- 679
- 00:54:35,155 --> 00:54:36,490
- Yes.
- 680
- 00:54:37,858 --> 00:54:40,660
- Well, she knew
- it was worth something.
- 681
- 00:54:41,827 --> 00:54:43,596
- Mm-hmm.
- 682
- 00:54:44,831 --> 00:54:46,064
- Mm-hmm.
- 683
- 00:54:46,066 --> 00:54:47,966
- I was very fair.
- 684
- 00:54:47,968 --> 00:54:50,167
- Yes. Very fair for me.
- 685
- 00:54:50,169 --> 00:54:51,936
- Uh...
- 686
- 00:54:51,938 --> 00:54:54,508
- Listen, I got
- another call. Can...
- 687
- 00:54:56,809 --> 00:54:58,709
- What do you mean, no?
- 688
- 00:54:58,711 --> 00:55:00,046
- I'm gonna take...
- 689
- 00:55:02,849 --> 00:55:05,182
- Okay, that's $10,000 more
- than I'm asking.
- 690
- 00:55:05,184 --> 00:55:07,053
- And you know I'm asking
- more than it's worth.
- 691
- 00:55:10,624 --> 00:55:11,992
- Uh...
- 692
- 00:55:13,626 --> 00:55:15,693
- Yes.
- 693
- 00:55:15,695 --> 00:55:18,798
- I mean, you've seen the pictures.
- It's absolutely perfect.
- 694
- 00:55:20,800 --> 00:55:23,166
- No. No, no, no.
- That won't work.
- 695
- 00:55:23,168 --> 00:55:26,105
- I'm, uh... I'm flying out
- tomorrow afternoon.
- 696
- 00:55:28,909 --> 00:55:31,642
- I'm going home.
- I'm going to my old home.
- 697
- 00:55:31,644 --> 00:55:34,814
- I'm gonna help clean out my
- parents' house with my sister.
- 698
- 00:55:36,282 --> 00:55:38,084
- Yeah.
- 699
- 00:55:40,220 --> 00:55:42,320
- Yeah, well, look,
- nobody knows more than me
- 700
- 00:55:42,322 --> 00:55:46,090
- that when it's time for it all to
- go, you gotta get rid of it all.
- 701
- 00:55:46,092 --> 00:55:47,695
- That's right.
- 702
- 00:55:50,095 --> 00:55:53,030
- All right.
- I'll talk to you Monday.
- 703
- 00:58:45,838 --> 00:58:47,273
- Have you talked
- to them recently?
- 704
- 00:58:48,775 --> 00:58:51,508
- I did. I called to say
- that I was coming here.
- 705
- 00:58:51,510 --> 00:58:55,012
- They were less interested in that fact
- than I thought maybe they would be.
- 706
- 00:58:55,014 --> 00:58:56,981
- Come on. Take it easy.
- 707
- 00:58:56,983 --> 00:58:58,883
- No. This is important to me.
- 708
- 00:58:58,885 --> 00:59:00,218
- - I flew here.
- - Just don't be...
- 709
- 00:59:00,220 --> 00:59:01,986
- I flew here for this.
- That's more than they did.
- 710
- 00:59:01,988 --> 00:59:05,388
- You always fly here.
- Just don't be negative.
- 711
- 00:59:05,390 --> 00:59:08,258
- - I travel twice a month for work.
- - I know that.
- 712
- 00:59:08,260 --> 00:59:10,428
- So flying here twice a year
- is not that big a deal.
- 713
- 00:59:10,430 --> 00:59:12,765
- I have a very favorable
- mileage situation.
- 714
- 00:59:14,834 --> 00:59:18,336
- I just... I can't believe they didn't
- take more of their stuff, you know.
- 715
- 00:59:18,338 --> 00:59:19,937
- - That...
- - Well, duh.
- 716
- 00:59:19,939 --> 00:59:22,405
- It's not their stuff anymore.
- You know what I mean?
- 717
- 00:59:22,407 --> 00:59:26,244
- At this point. They took what they
- wanted and they left the rest.
- 718
- 00:59:26,246 --> 00:59:30,814
- That's the whole point of why old
- folks move from a house to a condo.
- 719
- 00:59:30,816 --> 00:59:33,486
- There's less space,
- less stuff.
- 720
- 00:59:36,789 --> 00:59:39,990
- You talk down to me so much.
- 721
- 00:59:39,992 --> 00:59:42,059
- - I don't talk...
- - You think I'm an idiot.
- 722
- 00:59:42,061 --> 00:59:44,394
- - I'm not... I don't. I don't.
- - Yeah, you do. Yeah.
- 723
- 00:59:44,396 --> 00:59:45,732
- And I'm not talking
- down to you.
- 724
- 01:00:00,180 --> 01:00:02,379
- I wish you
- would stay with us.
- 725
- 01:00:02,381 --> 01:00:04,182
- I don't want
- to inconvenience you.
- 726
- 01:00:04,184 --> 01:00:06,184
- Besides, maybe staying here
- a couple extra nights
- 727
- 01:00:06,186 --> 01:00:08,952
- might make me actually
- feel something.
- 728
- 01:00:08,954 --> 01:00:10,923
- Doesn't sound like you.
- 729
- 01:00:14,927 --> 01:00:16,262
- Oh!
- 730
- 01:00:17,930 --> 01:00:19,932
- - Whoa.
- - Right?
- 731
- 01:00:20,900 --> 01:00:22,302
- Yeah, no joke.
- 732
- 01:00:23,336 --> 01:00:24,772
- Uff-da.
- 733
- 01:00:29,575 --> 01:00:32,475
- This is difficult.
- I love this house.
- 734
- 01:00:32,477 --> 01:00:35,515
- I love this place too,
- but, you know...
- 735
- 01:00:37,916 --> 01:00:40,153
- Got a lot of good memories here.
- It's just a house.
- 736
- 01:00:41,387 --> 01:00:44,258
- - That we grew up in.
- - Mm.
- 737
- 01:00:46,358 --> 01:00:48,526
- Boy.
- 738
- 01:00:48,528 --> 01:00:50,928
- I think Tallie's having
- a really hard time with it.
- 739
- 01:00:50,930 --> 01:00:52,533
- - Hmm?
- - Yeah.
- 740
- 01:00:53,867 --> 01:00:55,135
- And every...
- 741
- 01:00:56,369 --> 01:00:58,001
- Christmas
- and Thanksgiving...
- 742
- 01:00:58,003 --> 01:01:01,606
- Every memory she has
- is in here.
- 743
- 01:01:03,409 --> 01:01:04,975
- Yeah, well,
- she'll get over it.
- 744
- 01:01:04,977 --> 01:01:06,313
- I mean, she still
- has the memories.
- 745
- 01:01:08,581 --> 01:01:10,249
- Make new ones.
- 746
- 01:01:12,418 --> 01:01:16,120
- I think it's harder
- on her them moving away
- 747
- 01:01:16,122 --> 01:01:18,088
- than...
- than she even knows or...
- 748
- 01:01:18,090 --> 01:01:19,155
- I don't know.
- 749
- 01:01:19,157 --> 01:01:20,591
- She was really lucky
- 750
- 01:01:20,593 --> 01:01:23,260
- to have gotten to grow up so
- close to her grandparents.
- 751
- 01:01:23,262 --> 01:01:25,264
- There's gonna be
- other holidays.
- 752
- 01:01:26,499 --> 01:01:28,001
- Mm.
- 753
- 01:01:40,046 --> 01:01:42,012
- God, it was easy
- to sneak out.
- 754
- 01:01:46,184 --> 01:01:48,486
- I don't want
- to spend Christmas in Florida.
- 755
- 01:01:48,488 --> 01:01:52,455
- Well, better get your serving trays
- out, 'cause it's on you now.
- 756
- 01:02:01,267 --> 01:02:03,035
- Oh, geez.
- 757
- 01:02:25,557 --> 01:02:31,062
- But it's so weird to stay in a house
- that's been empty for too long.
- 758
- 01:02:32,264 --> 01:02:34,064
- Well, if I don't make it
- through the night,
- 759
- 01:02:34,066 --> 01:02:36,269
- you can tell everybody
- that I died as I lived...
- 760
- 01:02:37,403 --> 01:02:39,238
- in my childhood home.
- 761
- 01:02:41,006 --> 01:02:42,608
- Uh... Yeah, well...
- 762
- 01:02:44,376 --> 01:02:47,577
- You're a puzzle, little Bro.
- 763
- 01:02:47,579 --> 01:02:50,381
- You're gonna meet me
- at 10:00, right?
- 764
- 01:02:50,383 --> 01:02:55,218
- Yes. You know, I should refuse
- to do that out of principle.
- 765
- 01:02:55,220 --> 01:03:00,256
- - Why? You have a principle against storage lockers?
- - No. I love storage lockers.
- 766
- 01:03:00,258 --> 01:03:05,095
- In fact, I've probably found hundreds of
- thousands of dollars worth of sales in them.
- 767
- 01:03:05,097 --> 01:03:08,631
- - I just don't think you should be renting one.
- - Oh, God.
- 768
- 01:03:08,633 --> 01:03:13,303
- You know, just because you have nothing
- in your life that you love or care about
- 769
- 01:03:13,305 --> 01:03:17,041
- doesn't mean
- that we all should be the same.
- 770
- 01:03:17,043 --> 01:03:20,012
- - I care about things. I care about things.
- - Sure, so you say.
- 771
- 01:03:21,314 --> 01:03:23,717
- - Okay. See you in the morn.
- - Drive safely.
- 772
- 01:03:25,218 --> 01:03:28,285
- - Drive safely.
- - I'll try.
- 773
- 01:03:28,287 --> 01:03:30,220
- - All right. Later, gator.
- - Bye.
- 774
- 01:03:30,222 --> 01:03:31,691
- - Ooh!
- - You got it.
- 775
- 01:06:03,809 --> 01:06:05,475
- Oh, man.
- 776
- 01:06:05,477 --> 01:06:08,245
- I bet that the cost of your
- two-year lease on this thing
- 777
- 01:06:08,247 --> 01:06:10,914
- is worth three times more than
- anything you're putting in here.
- 778
- 01:06:10,916 --> 01:06:13,684
- It's not about the money.
- 779
- 01:06:13,686 --> 01:06:15,718
- But you have an attic.
- 780
- 01:06:15,720 --> 01:06:18,888
- You have a basement. You have a house.
- Can't you put this there?
- 781
- 01:06:18,890 --> 01:06:22,626
- Well, then I'd have to fucking see it
- every single day, and I don't want to.
- 782
- 01:06:27,332 --> 01:06:31,669
- Maybe I just don't want
- to go downstairs every day
- 783
- 01:06:31,671 --> 01:06:33,736
- and see all this stuff.
- 784
- 01:06:33,738 --> 01:06:36,606
- Maybe it'll remind me of something
- that's a little too hard,
- 785
- 01:06:36,608 --> 01:06:38,209
- and I just...
- 786
- 01:06:38,211 --> 01:06:40,213
- It would get to me. Do you understand?
- No, you don't.
- 787
- 01:06:43,782 --> 01:06:47,785
- Well, just saying, what is this,
- 25 percent of their stuff?
- 788
- 01:06:47,787 --> 01:06:49,919
- They took 25 percent
- of it with them.
- 789
- 01:06:49,921 --> 01:06:51,722
- You take whatever
- you're gonna take.
- 790
- 01:06:51,724 --> 01:06:54,992
- So we just throw 50 percent
- of it into a Dumpster?
- 791
- 01:06:54,994 --> 01:06:56,595
- I guess so.
- 792
- 01:06:58,697 --> 01:07:00,866
- Well, this is
- exploitation of labor.
- 793
- 01:07:01,968 --> 01:07:04,401
- People usually
- get paid for this.
- 794
- 01:07:12,878 --> 01:07:15,678
- I know why Carol left you.
- 795
- 01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:17,715
- Wow. What a shitty thing
- to say.
- 796
- 01:07:19,751 --> 01:07:21,654
- You're such a shit, man.
- 797
- 01:07:22,655 --> 01:07:23,957
- I love you.
- 798
- 01:07:26,258 --> 01:07:27,858
- God, this is all junk.
- 799
- 01:07:27,860 --> 01:07:30,693
- We don't need any of this,
- all right?
- 800
- 01:07:30,695 --> 01:07:33,530
- You wanted my professional opinion.
- This is all junk.
- 801
- 01:07:33,532 --> 01:07:35,798
- Look through this and see
- if there's anything valuable.
- 802
- 01:07:35,800 --> 01:07:37,300
- There's nothing valuable
- up here.
- 803
- 01:07:37,302 --> 01:07:39,602
- That's why it's been
- in the attic our whole life.
- 804
- 01:07:39,604 --> 01:07:42,673
- - These were their wedding present.
- - Who cares?
- 805
- 01:07:42,675 --> 01:07:45,975
- No, because...
- From Grandma and Grandpa.
- 806
- 01:07:45,977 --> 01:07:48,379
- And if it meant
- anything to them,
- 807
- 01:07:48,381 --> 01:07:50,414
- they would have taken it
- down to Florida with them.
- 808
- 01:07:50,416 --> 01:07:51,948
- Oh, come on.
- These are nice.
- 809
- 01:07:51,950 --> 01:07:54,751
- I'm gonna save them. Give them
- to Tallie to take to college.
- 810
- 01:07:54,753 --> 01:07:57,588
- What? You don't send
- a kid off to college
- 811
- 01:07:57,590 --> 01:07:59,722
- with bowls and plates
- from the '50s.
- 812
- 01:07:59,724 --> 01:08:02,760
- You buy her 60 bucks worth of plastic
- shit that she'll throw away in two years.
- 813
- 01:08:02,762 --> 01:08:05,629
- All right.
- I know. But, I mean...
- 814
- 01:08:05,631 --> 01:08:07,798
- Just shut up. What am I
- supposed to do with it?
- 815
- 01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:09,432
- - Donate it. Get rid of it.
- - No.
- 816
- 01:08:09,434 --> 01:08:11,669
- Give it to Goodwill. Send it
- to the church donation center.
- 817
- 01:08:11,671 --> 01:08:14,305
- That is the solution
- to all of this stuff
- 818
- 01:08:14,307 --> 01:08:16,573
- that isn't
- direct family ephemera.
- 819
- 01:08:16,575 --> 01:08:18,309
- Mom!
- 820
- 01:08:18,311 --> 01:08:19,877
- You're just... sad.
- 821
- 01:08:19,879 --> 01:08:22,413
- - Uncle Will.
- - Oh, my God, that's me!
- 822
- 01:08:22,415 --> 01:08:24,547
- - Tallie! Hi.
- - Hi.
- 823
- 01:08:24,549 --> 01:08:25,682
- Mwah.
- 824
- 01:08:25,684 --> 01:08:26,850
- How'd you know?
- 825
- 01:08:26,852 --> 01:08:29,520
- "Uncle Will arrives
- this weekend."
- 826
- 01:08:29,522 --> 01:08:31,454
- - About 1000 times.
- - I get it. Right.
- 827
- 01:08:31,456 --> 01:08:34,958
- - Hi, babe. How was school?
- - I don't know. The same.
- 828
- 01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:38,861
- "The same, Mom. It was the same.
- School was the same."
- 829
- 01:08:38,863 --> 01:08:40,698
- But, uh, how long
- is this gonna take?
- 830
- 01:08:40,700 --> 01:08:43,370
- But you just got here.
- You got somewhere else to go?
- 831
- 01:08:45,437 --> 01:08:46,970
- Okay. Uh...
- 832
- 01:08:46,972 --> 01:08:50,474
- - Wait a second. Did I show you these?
- - Oh, God.
- 833
- 01:08:50,476 --> 01:08:54,011
- Dad's rackets. Did I tell you that
- she got a scholarship to Vanderbilt?
- 834
- 01:08:54,013 --> 01:08:56,913
- Yes, you told me that. You've told me
- 1000 times. Of course you told me.
- 835
- 01:08:56,915 --> 01:08:58,047
- Congratulations, Tallie.
- 836
- 01:08:58,049 --> 01:09:00,383
- - That's very impressive.
- - Thank you.
- 837
- 01:09:00,385 --> 01:09:02,819
- Yeah, these are cool.
- I'm gonna save these for you.
- 838
- 01:09:02,821 --> 01:09:04,922
- I'm gonna play tennis
- at Vanderbilt
- 839
- 01:09:04,924 --> 01:09:07,958
- with some
- antique wooden racquets.
- 840
- 01:09:09,594 --> 01:09:13,896
- Uh, how about this record
- about a blind guy?
- 841
- 01:09:13,898 --> 01:09:17,133
- That's Grandpa's jazz. That's
- his collection. Forget it.
- 842
- 01:09:17,135 --> 01:09:18,668
- This actually
- might be worth something.
- 843
- 01:09:18,670 --> 01:09:20,069
- I thought everything
- was worthless to you.
- 844
- 01:09:20,071 --> 01:09:21,739
- No, this is...
- Some things are not.
- 845
- 01:09:21,741 --> 01:09:23,974
- These?
- These are worth something?
- 846
- 01:09:23,976 --> 01:09:26,709
- Yes, they might actually be worth something
- because they're first pressings.
- 847
- 01:09:26,711 --> 01:09:29,145
- And they're
- in decent condition.
- 848
- 01:09:29,147 --> 01:09:32,716
- And they probably haven't been played or
- seen the light of day in over 30 years.
- 849
- 01:09:32,718 --> 01:09:35,485
- But can't you just get
- the music somewhere else?
- 850
- 01:09:35,487 --> 01:09:37,954
- No, darling,
- this is not that.
- 851
- 01:09:37,956 --> 01:09:39,489
- But you can just download it.
- 852
- 01:09:39,491 --> 01:09:42,426
- - Honey, don't.
- - No... Yes, but no.
- 853
- 01:09:42,428 --> 01:09:44,160
- Because then it doesn't exist.
- 854
- 01:09:44,162 --> 01:09:47,431
- Trust me.
- This is what I do for a living.
- 855
- 01:09:47,433 --> 01:09:48,768
- Okay.
- 856
- 01:09:49,902 --> 01:09:51,037
- All right.
- 857
- 01:09:56,075 --> 01:09:57,173
- What are you doing?
- 858
- 01:09:57,175 --> 01:09:59,109
- No, I...
- 859
- 01:09:59,111 --> 01:10:01,779
- I just...
- I don't need anything.
- 860
- 01:10:01,781 --> 01:10:04,080
- Oh, my God.
- Suddenly you're so content.
- 861
- 01:10:04,082 --> 01:10:07,751
- Well, why... why would I bring
- all this stuff into my room
- 862
- 01:10:07,753 --> 01:10:09,988
- just to move it again
- in August?
- 863
- 01:10:11,689 --> 01:10:13,058
- She makes a very good point.
- 864
- 01:10:14,460 --> 01:10:16,726
- I mean, who are you? I don't...
- 865
- 01:10:16,728 --> 01:10:18,761
- You know it's a good point.
- Doesn't make sense.
- 866
- 01:10:18,763 --> 01:10:20,631
- No, it actually...
- 867
- 01:10:20,633 --> 01:10:23,467
- So, how long am I gonna
- have to stay and help?
- 868
- 01:10:23,469 --> 01:10:27,104
- Are you... Okay, uh, this is...
- 869
- 01:10:27,106 --> 01:10:29,672
- I was thinking I could go up to
- Kathleen's lake house with her and Marie.
- 870
- 01:10:29,674 --> 01:10:31,708
- They invited me. I could
- be back Sunday afternoon,
- 871
- 01:10:31,710 --> 01:10:33,543
- if you guys
- are still gonna be here.
- 872
- 01:10:33,545 --> 01:10:35,678
- No, you can't go, sweetheart.
- You can't.
- 873
- 01:10:35,680 --> 01:10:38,015
- I'm sorry. You can't go.
- I told you about it...
- 874
- 01:10:38,017 --> 01:10:39,816
- Donna, it's fine.
- I don't care.
- 875
- 01:10:39,818 --> 01:10:41,985
- We can do this together. I don't mind.
- Let her go to her friend's.
- 876
- 01:10:41,987 --> 01:10:44,555
- Please stay out of it. This isn't...
- This really isn't...
- 877
- 01:10:44,557 --> 01:10:47,190
- This has nothing to do with you,
- but it's just...
- 878
- 01:10:47,192 --> 01:10:50,993
- We made an agreement, and I just
- expect you to stick by it, that's all.
- 879
- 01:10:50,995 --> 01:10:54,565
- No, I will. And I know...
- I know that it matters.
- 880
- 01:10:54,567 --> 01:10:58,037
- It's just hard for me to understand
- what this all means to you.
- 881
- 01:11:00,039 --> 01:11:06,877
- I get that you grew up with it and
- that it's probably always been here.
- 882
- 01:11:06,879 --> 01:11:10,213
- There's just a lot of it,
- and it takes up so much space.
- 883
- 01:11:10,215 --> 01:11:13,816
- Space that we don't
- even have, Mom, so...
- 884
- 01:11:13,818 --> 01:11:17,055
- I'm just a little confused.
- That's all.
- 885
- 01:11:20,259 --> 01:11:21,757
- I mean...
- 886
- 01:11:21,759 --> 01:11:24,962
- I do like these, uh,
- 887
- 01:11:24,964 --> 01:11:28,030
- little grandma-y things.
- 888
- 01:11:29,168 --> 01:11:30,734
- But... I don't know.
- 889
- 01:11:30,736 --> 01:11:32,869
- I mean,
- 890
- 01:11:32,871 --> 01:11:36,606
- being up here,
- it... it isn't fun.
- 891
- 01:11:36,608 --> 01:11:41,878
- And it doesn't remind me
- of spending time here.
- 892
- 01:11:41,880 --> 01:11:45,218
- I actually never
- even came up here.
- 893
- 01:11:47,152 --> 01:11:51,788
- So most of this stuff is stuff
- that I've never actually seen.
- 894
- 01:11:53,726 --> 01:11:57,964
- I mean, most of it is probably where
- it has been since before I was born.
- 895
- 01:12:01,700 --> 01:12:02,936
- So...
- 896
- 01:12:05,137 --> 01:12:07,974
- this is...
- this is your space, not mine.
- 897
- 01:12:12,777 --> 01:12:15,611
- Uh...
- 898
- 01:12:15,613 --> 01:12:18,485
- But it's really cool that
- you both are so into it, and...
- 899
- 01:12:20,553 --> 01:12:24,288
- I mean, I'm happy
- that I get to see you,
- 900
- 01:12:24,290 --> 01:12:26,989
- that you flew here
- to see us, so...
- 901
- 01:12:26,991 --> 01:12:29,728
- Yeah. Me, too.
- 902
- 01:12:31,095 --> 01:12:32,264
- Me, too.
- 903
- 01:12:33,799 --> 01:12:37,199
- Uh, so I'm... I'm glad
- you found your records,
- 904
- 01:12:37,201 --> 01:12:41,337
- and if you come by
- some cool tunes or whatever,
- 905
- 01:12:41,339 --> 01:12:44,209
- you can just send me the name,
- and I'll download them.
- 906
- 01:12:45,710 --> 01:12:48,811
- - Deal.
- - Uh...
- 907
- 01:12:48,813 --> 01:12:52,218
- But Kathleen keeps texting me.
- Can I go or not?
- 908
- 01:12:55,920 --> 01:12:57,122
- Thank you.
- 909
- 01:12:59,157 --> 01:13:00,692
- I love you both.
- 910
- 01:14:21,372 --> 01:14:23,977
- "Being away from
- you and the kids is just awful.
- 911
- 01:14:26,210 --> 01:14:27,977
- I told them
- now that Donna is born,
- 912
- 01:14:27,979 --> 01:14:30,116
- I can't go
- on company business as often.
- 913
- 01:14:36,722 --> 01:14:39,722
- I thought you'd appreciate
- the enclosed photograph.
- 914
- 01:14:39,724 --> 01:14:42,324
- I bought it at the gas station,
- along with a Coke.
- 915
- 01:14:42,326 --> 01:14:44,761
- And it cost a nickel, but they
- said I could just have it,
- 916
- 01:14:44,763 --> 01:14:47,963
- on account of how thirsty I looked
- and how badly I needed the Coke.
- 917
- 01:14:47,965 --> 01:14:50,233
- I left my change on the counter.
- 918
- 01:14:50,235 --> 01:14:52,871
- I'll be home by the time
- this arrives, most likely."
- 919
- 01:14:57,409 --> 01:15:01,110
- "Please show the enclosed clipping
- from the newspaper to Will.
- 920
- 01:15:01,112 --> 01:15:04,013
- I think he'll be amused by the
- sizable collection of geodes
- 921
- 01:15:04,015 --> 01:15:06,315
- that this town
- prides themselves on.
- 922
- 01:15:06,317 --> 01:15:08,318
- Had I known
- I would be in Arkansas
- 923
- 01:15:08,320 --> 01:15:10,453
- during their
- annual geode festival,
- 924
- 01:15:10,455 --> 01:15:12,855
- I would have made an effort
- to bring him along.
- 925
- 01:15:12,857 --> 01:15:15,292
- Do not tell him, but I will
- bring him home a souvenir geode
- 926
- 01:15:15,294 --> 01:15:17,263
- that I purchased
- from a merchant in town."
- 927
- 01:15:19,865 --> 01:15:22,132
- "Sweetheart,
- I cannot express my excitement
- 928
- 01:15:22,134 --> 01:15:24,333
- to return home to you next week.
- 929
- 01:15:24,335 --> 01:15:28,305
- Our last Christmas
- with just the two of us looms.
- 930
- 01:15:28,307 --> 01:15:31,941
- I may be bringing home a surprise
- ornament or two for the tree.
- 931
- 01:15:31,943 --> 01:15:35,111
- I love you. I love you so much.
- 932
- 01:15:35,113 --> 01:15:37,750
- I love you deeper
- than I've ever loved anyone."
- 933
- 01:17:18,349 --> 01:17:19,518
- Jesus.
- 934
- 01:17:27,226 --> 01:17:28,294
- Hello.
- 935
- 01:17:30,128 --> 01:17:31,264
- Hello.
- 936
- 01:17:58,122 --> 01:17:59,922
- Hello.
- 937
- 01:18:01,526 --> 01:18:05,031
- What? Whoa, whoa, whoa. Whoa.
- Whoa, whoa. Slow down. What?
- 938
- 01:18:05,664 --> 01:18:07,032
- What?
- 939
- 01:18:16,040 --> 01:18:18,408
- Tallie...
- 940
- 01:18:19,978 --> 01:18:21,110
- Oh, God.
- 941
- 01:18:21,112 --> 01:18:22,378
- Oh, Donna. Oh, God.
- 942
- 01:18:22,380 --> 01:18:24,316
- Um... Oh. Um...
- 943
- 01:18:25,416 --> 01:18:26,585
- Uh...
- 944
- 01:18:44,937 --> 01:18:46,606
- Only one of them made it.
- 945
- 01:18:49,607 --> 01:18:53,111
- Police got ahold of us
- at 3:00...
- 946
- 01:18:54,545 --> 01:18:55,981
- 3:30.
- 947
- 01:18:58,517 --> 01:19:02,088
- A drunk had crossed over the line
- and drove them off the road.
- 948
- 01:19:03,287 --> 01:19:05,491
- I guess they never had a chance.
- 949
- 01:19:10,228 --> 01:19:14,066
- They said, uh, she had died...
- 950
- 01:19:15,701 --> 01:19:18,271
- before the ambulance
- ever got there.
- 951
- 01:19:39,223 --> 01:19:40,927
- I'm sorry.
- 952
- 01:20:25,269 --> 01:20:27,572
- Why?
- 953
- 01:20:30,207 --> 01:20:32,074
- Come here, baby. Come here.
- 954
- 01:20:35,781 --> 01:20:38,451
- Oh, God, no!
- 955
- 01:20:40,152 --> 01:20:43,319
- I got you.
- I got you. I got you.
- 956
- 01:20:43,321 --> 01:20:46,459
- - I got you.
- - No! No!
- 957
- 01:21:43,714 --> 01:21:46,684
- I wanna fucking do something.
- 958
- 01:21:50,522 --> 01:21:54,423
- I can't. I don't want... I don't
- want anyone to fucking touch me!
- 959
- 01:21:54,425 --> 01:21:56,128
- Don't fucking...
- 960
- 01:21:58,629 --> 01:22:02,398
- I don't know what to do. I don't
- know what to do.
- 961
- 01:22:02,400 --> 01:22:04,566
- - What do I do? What do I do?
- - Let's take a walk.
- 962
- 01:22:04,568 --> 01:22:06,336
- - No, no. What do I do?
- - Let's take a walk.
- 963
- 01:22:06,338 --> 01:22:08,471
- I don't wanna walk.
- I don't want to.
- 964
- 01:22:08,473 --> 01:22:11,341
- - Let's be outside.
- - I don't want to walk.
- 965
- 01:22:11,343 --> 01:22:14,146
- I don't wanna...
- 966
- 01:22:37,369 --> 01:22:40,572
- I'll get it.
- I'll get it. I'll get it.
- 967
- 01:22:41,939 --> 01:22:43,442
- Oh, fuck.
- 968
- 01:22:54,619 --> 01:22:58,187
- Yeah, it'll be helpful, but
- just give us a couple of hours.
- 969
- 01:22:58,189 --> 01:23:00,422
- I think we'll have...
- 970
- 01:23:00,424 --> 01:23:02,225
- We'll be ready.
- 971
- 01:23:02,227 --> 01:23:03,496
- Okay?
- 972
- 01:23:04,595 --> 01:23:06,529
- Okay. Thank you.
- 973
- 01:23:34,625 --> 01:23:37,362
- Why don't you go see...
- 974
- 01:23:48,740 --> 01:23:49,942
- I'm sorry.
- 975
- 01:23:55,246 --> 01:23:56,980
- Sorry.
- 976
- 01:23:56,982 --> 01:23:59,518
- I'm so... I'm so sorry.
- 977
- 01:24:00,951 --> 01:24:03,619
- Kathleen's
- going to be okay.
- 978
- 01:24:03,621 --> 01:24:05,557
- She should be fine.
- 979
- 01:24:07,892 --> 01:24:09,628
- Thank God.
- 980
- 01:24:11,429 --> 01:24:14,633
- I'm... I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry.
- I don't know what to say.
- 981
- 01:24:16,567 --> 01:24:20,869
- - Okay.
- - Okay. Okay, listen...
- 982
- 01:24:20,871 --> 01:24:24,709
- We all wish they
- were both here. Okay?
- 983
- 01:24:28,946 --> 01:24:31,413
- - Was it a phone call?
- - Hi, sweetie. Hi, Hillary.
- 984
- 01:24:31,415 --> 01:24:34,016
- Um, yeah. It was a phone call,
- 985
- 01:24:34,018 --> 01:24:37,753
- um, around 3:15.
- 986
- 01:24:37,755 --> 01:24:39,622
- Right.
- 987
- 01:24:39,624 --> 01:24:43,059
- I guess it wouldn't make sense that
- they would go to your house, too.
- 988
- 01:24:43,061 --> 01:24:46,361
- I mean, they wouldn't
- do that, would they?
- 989
- 01:24:46,363 --> 01:24:47,566
- Oh.
- 990
- 01:24:49,300 --> 01:24:52,502
- I woke up... I woke up...
- 991
- 01:24:52,504 --> 01:24:56,806
- I woke up and then a car...
- I heard a car pull up.
- 992
- 01:24:56,808 --> 01:24:57,843
- And then...
- 993
- 01:25:01,879 --> 01:25:05,515
- the door slammed, and...
- 994
- 01:25:05,517 --> 01:25:07,816
- and there was...
- there was these...
- 995
- 01:25:07,818 --> 01:25:10,019
- f... footsteps.
- 996
- 01:25:10,021 --> 01:25:12,491
- Really slow footsteps. And...
- 997
- 01:25:13,558 --> 01:25:15,027
- I, uh...
- 998
- 01:25:17,461 --> 01:25:20,062
- I thought maybe that
- she had come home, you know,
- 999
- 01:25:20,064 --> 01:25:21,634
- that maybe the trip ended early.
- 1000
- 01:25:23,067 --> 01:25:27,537
- And then we heard knocks
- on the door and, um...
- 1001
- 01:25:27,539 --> 01:25:30,006
- - There was two guys.
- - Yeah.
- 1002
- 01:25:30,008 --> 01:25:33,512
- - They were so... They were so sweet.
- - Yeah.
- 1003
- 01:25:39,651 --> 01:25:40,585
- Young.
- 1004
- 01:25:44,656 --> 01:25:47,890
- Their job is just to come
- and tell a mother...
- 1005
- 01:25:47,892 --> 01:25:50,396
- outta fucking nowhere...
- 1006
- 01:25:51,629 --> 01:25:53,663
- that, you know...
- 1007
- 01:25:53,665 --> 01:25:55,565
- that her daughter's...
- 1008
- 01:25:55,567 --> 01:25:57,002
- that her daughter's...
- 1009
- 01:26:01,071 --> 01:26:03,374
- She's gone. Gone away.
- 1010
- 01:26:06,811 --> 01:26:10,014
- "Your daughter's gone."
- 1011
- 01:26:11,549 --> 01:26:14,586
- - Gone.
- - We're so sorry.
- 1012
- 01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:17,523
- I'm so sorry.
- 1013
- 01:27:32,863 --> 01:27:35,032
- - Hey.
- - Yeah.
- 1014
- 01:27:37,669 --> 01:27:38,967
- You okay?
- 1015
- 01:27:38,969 --> 01:27:41,002
- She had her computer with her.
- 1016
- 01:27:41,004 --> 01:27:43,909
- And her phone, of course.
- 1017
- 01:27:47,144 --> 01:27:49,881
- Both completely destroyed.
- 1018
- 01:27:51,883 --> 01:27:53,152
- What does that mean?
- 1019
- 01:27:54,619 --> 01:27:57,022
- It means
- we don't have anything.
- 1020
- 01:27:59,189 --> 01:28:02,928
- I mean, there's access to everything...
- computer, e-mail, text.
- 1021
- 01:28:05,162 --> 01:28:09,500
- She left everything open. I never even
- thought about asking for a password.
- 1022
- 01:28:11,236 --> 01:28:14,136
- I'm down there,
- trying to plan this memorial
- 1023
- 01:28:14,138 --> 01:28:16,204
- and realized we don't have
- any recent photographs.
- 1024
- 01:28:16,206 --> 01:28:19,177
- We've got, like, two. She took 100 a day.
- We didn't.
- 1025
- 01:28:20,777 --> 01:28:22,177
- Donna wanted
- to play some music,
- 1026
- 01:28:22,179 --> 01:28:25,114
- and we realized
- we don't know where that is
- 1027
- 01:28:25,116 --> 01:28:29,153
- or how to get it
- or even so much what it was.
- 1028
- 01:28:34,925 --> 01:28:37,293
- Did she have an older phone?
- 1029
- 01:28:37,295 --> 01:28:39,794
- No.
- 1030
- 01:28:39,796 --> 01:28:42,567
- She wiped it clean.
- Donated it.
- 1031
- 01:28:43,835 --> 01:28:46,538
- Twenty years ago,
- somebody dies...
- 1032
- 01:28:48,305 --> 01:28:52,842
- you could find
- some dog-eared book and open it,
- 1033
- 01:28:52,844 --> 01:28:55,948
- see a passage
- they'd underlined, read it.
- 1034
- 01:28:58,650 --> 01:29:01,217
- You could find an album,
- 1035
- 01:29:01,219 --> 01:29:03,822
- look at where it was worn and...
- 1036
- 01:29:05,822 --> 01:29:08,259
- find the song they liked
- and play it.
- 1037
- 01:29:11,963 --> 01:29:14,233
- You could find a roll of film...
- 1038
- 01:29:16,134 --> 01:29:17,603
- and develop...
- 1039
- 01:29:23,907 --> 01:29:25,510
- We don't have anything.
- 1040
- 01:29:56,874 --> 01:29:58,610
- That one's familiar.
- 1041
- 01:30:01,345 --> 01:30:03,180
- She liked that one.
- 1042
- 01:37:58,522 --> 01:37:59,587
- Hey.
- 1043
- 01:37:59,589 --> 01:38:01,191
- Hi.
- 1044
- 01:38:02,326 --> 01:38:03,659
- What's all that?
- 1045
- 01:38:03,661 --> 01:38:06,127
- Half the house.
- 1046
- 01:38:06,129 --> 01:38:08,565
- I took some of the stuff from your
- storage unit. I hope you don't mind.
- 1047
- 01:38:10,366 --> 01:38:13,569
- The Dumpster's being picked up tomorrow.
- All right?
- 1048
- 01:38:13,571 --> 01:38:15,436
- I wanna take
- all this stuff off your plate.
- 1049
- 01:38:15,438 --> 01:38:16,673
- Don't want you
- to worry about it.
- 1050
- 01:38:18,409 --> 01:38:19,744
- This stuff...
- 1051
- 01:38:22,412 --> 01:38:25,646
- is from the Dumpster.
- 1052
- 01:38:25,648 --> 01:38:27,716
- Most of it, anyway.
- 1053
- 01:38:27,718 --> 01:38:29,687
- Some of it's from the attic.
- 1054
- 01:38:31,488 --> 01:38:34,523
- You know, it's, like, letters.
- Dad to Mom, Mom to Dad.
- 1055
- 01:38:34,525 --> 01:38:38,228
- Nothing earth-shattering. But it
- shouldn't have been in the Dumpster.
- 1056
- 01:38:39,796 --> 01:38:42,898
- - You looked at it?
- - Some, yeah.
- 1057
- 01:38:42,900 --> 01:38:44,669
- Why do you
- think I kept it?
- 1058
- 01:38:46,804 --> 01:38:48,807
- Come here.
- 1059
- 01:38:50,174 --> 01:38:51,907
- There.
- 1060
- 01:38:54,478 --> 01:38:57,082
- - Thank you.
- - You're welcome.
- 1061
- 01:38:58,214 --> 01:39:00,649
- - I love you.
- - I love you, too.
- 1062
- 01:39:00,651 --> 01:39:02,353
- I'll be there for you.
- 1063
- 01:39:04,254 --> 01:39:05,887
- - Got me?
- - Yeah.
- 1064
- 01:39:05,889 --> 01:39:07,588
- All right, Donna.
- 1065
- 01:39:07,590 --> 01:39:08,726
- Come here.
- 1066
- 01:39:24,808 --> 01:39:26,842
- All right.
- 1067
- 01:39:26,844 --> 01:39:30,611
- You don't have to go back
- to that house. It's all done.
- 1068
- 01:39:30,613 --> 01:39:32,648
- It's all taken care of.
- 1069
- 01:39:32,650 --> 01:39:35,219
- - Okay?
- - Yeah.
- 1070
- 01:39:36,586 --> 01:39:39,557
- That house is
- the last place you saw her.
- 1071
- 01:39:40,823 --> 01:39:42,460
- So maybe...
- 1072
- 01:39:43,960 --> 01:39:46,662
- maybe one day we'll drive by
- and we'll say hi.
- 1073
- 01:39:46,664 --> 01:39:49,200
- The house
- isn't going anywhere.
- 1074
- 01:39:51,434 --> 01:39:53,204
- It's just a house.
- 1075
- 01:39:54,571 --> 01:39:55,739
- Right?
- 1076
- 01:39:57,840 --> 01:40:00,344
- Right? Right.
- 1077
- 01:40:04,447 --> 01:40:06,215
- I gotta go.
- 1078
- 01:40:06,217 --> 01:40:07,849
- Okay.
- You leaving?
- 1079
- 01:40:07,851 --> 01:40:09,420
- Not forever.
- 1080
- 01:40:11,388 --> 01:40:12,490
- Just for now.
- 1081
- 01:41:58,629 --> 01:42:00,598
- You guys,
- I'll be back, okay?
- 1082
- 01:42:08,004 --> 01:42:09,740
- Hi, Kathleen.
- 1083
- 01:42:11,575 --> 01:42:15,077
- You... You look like you're
- doing pretty well there.
- 1084
- 01:42:15,079 --> 01:42:17,048
- Yeah, I am. Thank you.
- 1085
- 01:42:21,585 --> 01:42:24,055
- I won't ask how things
- have been, though.
- 1086
- 01:42:25,555 --> 01:42:27,788
- That would be stupid.
- 1087
- 01:42:27,790 --> 01:42:29,893
- It's been
- a trying few weeks.
- 1088
- 01:42:31,562 --> 01:42:33,564
- Believe me, I know.
- 1089
- 01:42:36,400 --> 01:42:38,503
- How much longer do you
- have to be on those?
- 1090
- 01:42:40,370 --> 01:42:45,507
- My... My physical therapist thinks
- maybe only another few weeks.
- 1091
- 01:42:45,509 --> 01:42:48,413
- At first they were saying it
- could be the end of the summer.
- 1092
- 01:42:50,714 --> 01:42:52,950
- Well, it's good
- to see you up and around.
- 1093
- 01:42:55,719 --> 01:42:59,788
- Thank you for coming
- to visit me in the hospital.
- 1094
- 01:42:59,790 --> 01:43:01,390
- Of course.
- 1095
- 01:43:01,392 --> 01:43:03,061
- I mean,
- I can't imagine what that...
- 1096
- 01:43:04,061 --> 01:43:06,563
- what that must be like for you.
- 1097
- 01:43:28,619 --> 01:43:31,956
- I hope that you
- don't see me as some...
- 1098
- 01:43:33,189 --> 01:43:35,856
- reminder.
- 1099
- 01:43:35,858 --> 01:43:39,660
- I don't want you to look at me and ask
- why I'm here instead of Tallie or Marie.
- 1100
- 01:43:39,662 --> 01:43:43,164
- We don't feel that way at all.
- 1101
- 01:43:43,166 --> 01:43:44,535
- We don't.
- 1102
- 01:43:46,737 --> 01:43:48,139
- I know, but...
- 1103
- 01:43:49,138 --> 01:43:51,708
- it'd be okay if you did.
- 1104
- 01:43:52,742 --> 01:43:55,043
- I think it sometimes.
- 1105
- 01:43:55,045 --> 01:43:56,848
- Well, you shouldn't.
- 1106
- 01:43:58,182 --> 01:43:59,983
- That's no way to think.
- 1107
- 01:44:07,657 --> 01:44:09,727
- I'll remember Tallie.
- 1108
- 01:44:10,861 --> 01:44:12,897
- I'll remember her so much.
- 1109
- 01:44:17,034 --> 01:44:20,670
- Do you know
- what "saudade" means?
- 1110
- 01:44:23,139 --> 01:44:27,177
- Well, I wouldn't if I hadn't
- have taken an SAT course.
- 1111
- 01:44:29,012 --> 01:44:32,113
- It's, um...
- 1112
- 01:44:32,115 --> 01:44:36,586
- a melancholy nostalgia for something
- that perhaps hasn't happened.
- 1113
- 01:44:40,957 --> 01:44:43,059
- Well, I never got it.
- 1114
- 01:44:44,827 --> 01:44:47,631
- Tallie...
- Tallie got it, though.
- 1115
- 01:44:53,237 --> 01:44:56,874
- "A pleasure you suffer,
- an ailment you enjoy."
- 1116
- 01:45:01,111 --> 01:45:06,818
- A strong longing for something
- that isn't... the present.
- 1117
- 01:45:25,602 --> 01:45:30,204
- Uh, on our way up to the lake we
- stopped to get these key chains.
- 1118
- 01:45:30,206 --> 01:45:32,673
- It's like a...
- 1119
- 01:45:32,675 --> 01:45:35,479
- a little ritual that we had.
- 1120
