Return to Two Moon Junction (1995) - full transcript

Dear April,

- it's been over a year
since the last time we spoke.

And thanks to Robert,
my modeling career-

- is really taken off.

I'm not so sure
about a relationship.

He wants to control my whole life.

Sometimes, I wonder
if he really loves me-

- or just the money
I make modeling for him.

Lately, I've been thinking
about Two Moon Junction.

Remember when Mother
would take us there-

- for Sunday picnics?



I wonder if Grandma Belle
still has those home movies-

- of Mom and me rowing
around the lagoon-

- and playing in
front of Two Moon.

I still have the music box
that Mom gave me that day.

You were already in
high school by then,

- busy with cheerleading and boys.

After Mom drowned,

- Nana Belle just seemed
to close up inside.

It was like she blamed
Two Moon for Mom's accident.

She wasn't very interested
in me anymore, either.

I guess I reminded her
too much of Mom,

- always so independent.

I know you're still upset with
me for coming to New York-

- without telling anyone,



but we both know Nana
would not have let me go.

Her birthday is next week.

And I'm catching a
plane after my show-

- to help her celebrate.

She won't be around forever, you know.

Besides, I'd like to see
Two Moon again.

And, who knows,
she might even be happy-

- to see me.

Maybe you could join us.

We'd certainly have
a lot to talk about.

It's been a long time, April.

I hope we'll see each other soon.

Take care.

Love, Savannah.

Okay. People,
let's get our shit together.

Mr. Lee is in the house.

Let's get it together, people.

Jerry, I like it.

Steve, get rid of
that chest hair.

Nick's got another nosebleed.

Mia's probably purging in the can.

Hey, glad you could make it.

Well, I got to keep up my reputation.

Look.
I've got your ticket-

- for your flight and...
- Thank you.

...left you time to schmooze
and Robert's not too happy-

- about you leaving.

We're rolling.

Okay, it's Jewels.
We're back.

We're jamming.
It's the blowout-

- for the truly hip
and demented Cleo,

- New York's fave designer.

And in a few minutes,
we're gonna go backstage-

- and behind the scenes
so just you stay tuned.

Silvee, thanks for this hat.
I love it.

You're welcome, Savannah.
I'll be right back.

- Okay.
- How's my girl?

Exhausted. I can't wait
to get out of the city.

Silvee, remember,
lots of volume, please.

I am comping Glamour
at Club 99 for later.

I want you on the October cover, okay?

So, sit next to Ed Worth.

Hon, you know I'd love to, but I can't.

- The plane leaves at ten-thirty.
- I'll change it.

What's a few days difference, anyway?

Then you can do the
Saint Thomas shoot as well.

Wait a second.

I have had plans to go to
Nana's birthday for months.

You can't just change it.

Bloomie's buyer just showed.

We'll discuss it later, okay?

Barn!
From Jeffrey Mason.

Is he that kiss up over
at Benton and Wily?

I don't remember.

Ah. Whoever he is,
it doesn't matter.

You are gonna knock
Paulina's sorry ass-

- right out of the checkout lane.

So, you don't just do clothes,

What's the dirt?
Mushrooms, right?

I like things that hold fabric together.

I like hooks, and eyes, and...

...clasps, and zippers,

- and buttons, and bows,
but most of all,

- you know what I like?

You know what I like?

What?

I like...

Velcro.

And the reason I like Velcro
is not for what you'd expect.

It is because I like the sound
it makes when you pull it apart.

It kind of goes kawwwk!

♪ Yeah, babe ♪

♪ Let me go, babe ♪

♪ Let go, you home girl ♪

♪ Oh, yeah ♪

But what is your philosophy?

My show is Vertigo.

It is about spinning out of control.

It is about climbing the
stepladder of success-

- and getting a nosebleed.

And looking down
at all the pond scum.

And thinking, I'm better than you.

No?

Yes?

Savannah, get back out there!

Savannah, what the hell
do you think you're doing?

What the hell
were you doing with Gina?

Savannah, stop.

This is childish
and unprofessional.

You've got interviews.
I've booked Club 99.

We can discuss this later.

I won't be around later.

- Robert?
- Savannah?

- Robert?
- Savannah!

They loved it.

They're all out there waiting
to tell you what a genius...

Ronnie, handle her.

Savannah?
Savannah?

Be careful, okay.
He could make New York-

- one hell of a black hole.

Ronnie, I'll call you.

Savannah, don't forget
about the Saint Thomas shoot.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

There's something about
traveling always zaps-

- the life right out of you, don't it?

Long time since you've been home?

Yes.

You ain't kin to
Charlie Newman, are you?

You favor him?

No. Belle Delongpre?

Belle Delongpre?
You the model?

Ha!

You know my daughter gets
all them magazines. Hmm.

Well, then you must
be April's little sister.

Yes.

You like New York?

I've been lucky there.

Well, now, look at here.
Savannah Delongpre.

Lord, have you have grown.

Mr. Bowman,
you haven't changed a bit.

How are you?

Well, now, tobacco don't hold
the same glory it used to.

- And Mrs. Bowman?
- Mrs. Bowman?

She don't hold
the same glory, either.

So, did it get here in time?

Oh?
Special ordered it.

I special ordered it.

Oh, wonderful.
And the engraving?

Came out perfect.

Oh, thank you.
She's going to love this.

I'm gonna take
some flowers, too.

- How much?
- No. Flowers for a flower.

You probably don't remember me.

Henry Walker.
I was a friend of your Momma's.

Oh?
Nice to meet you.

Well, Mr. Bowman,
thank you so much.

Now don't you be a
stranger here, you here?

I won't.

She turned out the
spitting image of her mom.

Hard to believe, her being so plain.

Y'all take care.

- Good-bye.
- Bye now.

Mom's car.

I don't know why I
keep that old thing around.

It took a week to get
it out and running.

Nana Belle!

Um, these are for you.

Store bought flowers-

- are a waste of your
good money, Savannah.

And what's that you're wearing?

Where's your luggage?

Oh, they lost it.

Well, then, I guess that means
you'll have to get some things-

- out of the back room.

Come on in.

You know where everything is.

Dinner's at 8:00 sharp.

I don't like it cold.

Bean!

It's so good to see you.

Let me look at you.

Oh, ain't you something.

Oh.

So glad you're here.

Let's go up.

Get comfortable,

- relax, and I'll make us
something cool to drink.

How about a nice cold
glass of fresh lemonade?

You are a sight for sore eyes.

Come over here and talk to me.
I have so much to tell you.

What about Mr. Lee?

Is he treating you right, Bean?

Oh, Ruth, I don't know
about anything anymore.

Are you all right?

I'm just glad to be here.

All right.

Savannah,

- if you parade around
in those old things,

- people are gonna say
that the Delongpres-

- can't afford a decent
standard of living.

Well, this would cost
a fortune in New York.

Well, that's the
silliest thing I ever heard.

Oh, no thank you, Ruth.
Maybe just some salad.

No wonder you never fill out.

You're always gonna be scrawny
if you don't eat something-

- that sticks to your bones.

I just don't know.

Thank you.

Thank you, Ruth.

I thought maybe you'd
bring Mr. Lee home-

- with you this time, so I could
have a proper introduction.

I'm not seeing Robert anymore.

Savannah, if you're not careful,
you're never gonna settle.

Then what will you do?

I have a career, Nana.

You change clothes for a living.

You know,
I was thinking about going-

- to the summer place tomorrow.

Well, I rented it.

Until I sell it.

You... You're selling Two Moon?

I'll have my brandy
on the veranda, Ruth.

Please.

Why are you selling it?

That place has been
nothing but trouble.

But, Nana, she didn't...

...It was the current,
not Two Moon.

I just wish you'd told me.

The stars are bright tonight.

Oh, Ruth, I'll get it.

Thank you, Ruth.

- Hello?
- Savannah.

Savannah, don't hang up.

I want to apologize.

I missed you.

Robert don't.

I'm sorry. I was stupid.

I don't know what I was thinking.

I just...
I just want you to come back.

For Saint Thomas?

No, for us.

Savannah?

Robert, I'm not sure
there is an us anymore.

When will you be back?

I don't know. It's late. I got to go.

Savannah, it's late.

Nana Belle, come watch with me.

No. It's too late for me.

Don't stay up too long.

Tracy's coming by tomorrow-

- to go over the plans for the party.

Hi.

Hi, Mommy.

Oh, nice. Nice shot.

No mercy, huh?

Come on, let's play one more time.

- No. Let's get a drink.
- Come on.

- Gosh.
- Oh! Oh, man!

You know, I think I could beat you-

- if you didn't look so good.

Bert?

So, who else was there?

Uh, Remember Vaughn Woodman?

In our Biology class.

Hey, Bert, honey, playing so hard-

- might give you a stroke.
- Oh, that's good.

- You're really mean, aren't you?
- Yes, I am.

Mm. Hey, Junior.

You girls have fun, all right?

- I got to run.
- Bye.

- Bye-bye.
- So, Vaughn?

- Oh, Vau... Vaughn!
- The one with the, uh,

- with the real long hair, right?

- All right.
- Always so damn proud of it?

- Right.
- Completely bald.

No?

Oh, he looks so pathetic.

- Oh, gosh.
- So, you two are happy?

Oh, yeah.
Of course, we are.

So, let's see here now,
we've got the...

...we got the wine.
We got the hors d'oeuvres.

The music? There is a
string quartet I use a lot.

Oh, you know what?

I don't think she's gonna
want to go for some big fuss.

- You know how she is?
- Oh, sure. Sure.

My whole damn life.
Boy this heat is getting to me.

You know what?
I don't miss it.

Oh, my gosh!
Oh, my gosh!

Oh, my gosh!
The baby just kicked.

- What? Oh, oh, okay.
- Put your hand and feel that.

Oh! You got a future
linebacker in there.

Now, see, if he's a boy,
we're gonna make him a junior-

- 'cause Bert likes that.
- Bert junior.

Foyer's full of roses from Mr. Lee.

- Oh, you're kidding?
- Hmm.

Oh, aren't you just Miss Lucky.

See, now, McDonalds is about
as romantic as Bert gets.

Oh. Do you mind if we
finish this up tomorrow? I...

Oh, no. No. Besides.
My feet are real swollen...

- Okay.
- ...and junior, here,

- she's getting restless.

Oh, Here. Let me help.
Let me help. Okay.

Are you leaving?

Oh, just for a little bit.

I hope you're not going out there.

I'm a big girl, Nana.

So was your mother.

I'll be fine.

Savannah?

Slothfulness is not a virtue, Savannah.

Did you know the foyer-

- is full of roses?
- I know.

I wish he'd leave me alone.

Well, you know the
proper thing to do-

- is just call him and thank him.

I'm not ready to talk to him yet.

Every blossom fades, Savannah.

Don't think you won't.

Henry Walker is here
and you're going with him-

- to the charity event
instead of your grandma.

What? What are you...

Her leg is acting up again.

Well, tell me,
how's your cousin Freddie?

- He's doing better.
- I don't believe it.

Nana, could I speak to you
for a moment, please?

Savannah, get dressed.

You'll keep the Dawson's waiting.

I'm sorry. I thought...

Well, you knew Henry'd be here.

Hurry up.

I'll be just a minute.

Take your time.

She's lovely.

Race.

Whoa!

We made the first heat.

Great.

Oh, I'm sorry.
You must be bored.

I doubt you play much
croquette in New York.

No grass.

You know, I know you're here
because of your grandmother.

Well, she does have a
way of getting her way.

Oh, don't I know it.

You know, it took all my powers
of persuasion to get her-

- to rent out Two Moon
after having it on the market-

- for a good year.

- That long?
- Yes, sir.

So, it wouldn't be
just standing still-

- eating up property tax.

Mm.

You know, it's just too out of the way.

Oh.
Too big to heat.

You know, people want efficiency
these days, not charm.

Who's renting it?

Salvage company.

Probably for storage.

They want to lease to buy.

Finally get it out of my hair
if the bank approves them.

Oh, I'd hate to see it sold.

I just wish Nana had told me.

Why? Are you interested?

Thought about it.

Well, you know the bank
would rather deal with you.

I mean, you're absolutely no risk.

If you want,
I can talk to Bob Fisher?

Okay. That'd be nice.

My pleasure.

- Thanks for going.
- Thanks for taking me.

It would have been
polite to invite him in.

I've been polite all day.

Who are you?

The guy who pays the rent.
Who the hell are you?

The guy you pay the rent to.

I pay old Lady Delongpre.

I'm Savannah Delongpre.

You manage a salvage company?

Something like that.

Let me guess.
You're just out here slumming?

No. I'm here to tell you
this isn't for rent anymore.

I'm buying it.

I'm sure you like throwing
your weight around-

- with the peasants,

- but I got a lease
to buy going through.

You're too late.

My family's had a fortune
in that bank for years.

I doubt it.

And before you leave,
I want all this stuff-

- out of here.

So, she said,

- "That's not a pig, that's a dog."

And I said Lady I
was talking to the dog.

Oh.

- I'm tired.
- Guess you had to be there.

- Ready?
- Get going. Yeah.

Yeah. You drive?

- Thank you for having us.
- Thanks for coming.

- Thanks for having us.
- [Bell] I wish you'd come more.

I think we're gonna have to do that.

- Bye, honey.
- Come here. Thanks.

- Thanks. Thanks.
- Are you okay?

I'm great.

I mean, she's almost like this
every single solitary time-

- I'm in this house, now why's
it getting to you tonight?

Oh, it's not that. It's just...

Well, I had this run in with
the most irritating man today.

- Oh, really? Where?
- Two Moon. Got me in a mood.

Uh-huh. And what were
you doing out there?

He was so arrogant,
he actually thinks-

- he's gonna buy the place.
And you should see...

- Oh, yeah?
- ...what he's done to it.

- He's got all this stuff.
- I bet he was cute.

It was like his personal junk yard.

- Bet he was cute.
- Tracy?

You're going on too much
about it for him to be ugly.

- Really?
- Umm-hmm. You are.

I'll call you tomorrow.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Nothing ever changes in this town.

Excuse me.
I have an appointment.

Yeah. I just had one.

When your great
grandfather cheated mine-

- out of Two Moon,
he just didn't take Two Moon.

He took his whole life
when he took that place.

Yes, ma'am, I did.

I just filed it...

Did Great Grandpa
cheat Warren Gilbert-

- out of the title to Two Moon?

It's unladylike to burst
in a room like that, Savannah.

Did he?

I have one nerve left,
Savannah, and you're on it.

I want to know.

Who have you been talking to?

Warren Gilbert's great grandson.

Warren Gilbert was
an uncivilized animal.

I don't care what he was like!
Did we still the property?

There was a gentlemanly
dispute about the property lines.

But that's ancient history.
And no need to drag it up now.

And us having more money,
the court listened better?

Savannah?

This place isn't yours, yet.
You still got to knock.

That swan used to be out front
before a hurricane came through.

I used to think it got tired
of being here and flew away.

What do you want?

You know you're wasted here.
You should go to New York.

This is beautiful.

I don't give a shit about New York.

And unless you're here
to personally kick me out...

I'm sorry about my grandfather.
I didn't know.

You're gonna have a hell
of a battle on your hands-

- when you try to take this place.

I'm not an easy mark
like my grandfather was.

That's not what this is about.

We're not our grandparents.

We are who we are.

Look. Forget it.

I came here to apologize
but just forget it.

Where do you come
off being so arrogant?

I went out of my way to find
out if what you said was true.

Hey, girl.

Ha-ha.

Ronnie. Girlfriend.

Woo!

- My luggage.
- Well, you did ask.

Now, I can't believe
you are getting along-

- without all your shit.

You'd be surprised.

Come on, let's get you settled.

Savannah running around
at all hours by yourself-

- is asking for trouble.

People talk.

What do you do around here?
Watch the cars rust?

God, Ronnie,
I'm so glad you're here.

You know, Robert's been
a major pain in the ass-

- since you left him.
You know, I got to find out-

- what you people put in grits.

You look relaxed.

Oh, God, Ronnie.

Woo! Shit!
What's his name?

Shh!

Did you already?
You slut.

I want to know
every disgusting detail.

Oh, yeah.
He's got this great art.

I want you to check it out.

Is that your... talking or your ass?

Did you sleep good?

Oh, yeah, great.

Cricket symphony
going in the background.

Remind me to get some bug spray.

Ooh.
Must be your perfume.

You mean the one you gave me?

Umm-hmm. So?
So?

Is this it?

You Southerner's
are some weird ass birds.

Fuck you, Ronnie.

I like it. I just might stay.

Whoa.

Whoa, girl.
Reality check, okay?

Robert's got you
booked for Christmas.

Screw Robert.

I don't get paid enough for that.

Whoa!

I like it.

Have I ever seen this before?

Has he ever had a show?

I don't think so.

What are you doing?

Ronnie has some friends
who run some galleries-

- and I...
I was thinking that maybe...

I'm not interested.

Little tense, are we?

Look, I was just thinking...

Jake, I hope you realize
how good you are-

- and you can blow
the critics away with this.

You're in to all that, not me.

Don't try to drag me down
to some higher social level.

That's not what I'm doing.

Okay, okay.
I'm gonna go outside-

- and play with the
crawdads or something.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize...

Take a look around, okay?

This is it.

This is me.

I know that. I know that.

What are you doing?

- What was last night about?
- I'm not sure. Are you?

I don't think you mean that.
I said I was sorry.

We're having a party tomorrow
and I want you to come.

What?
Are you turning trader on me?

A Gilbert's never been
behind Delongpre line.

I thought we were past all that?

Starts at 4:00.

He reminds me of this
rapper I used to date.

MC Ice Pick.

I think his songs were so good
because he was such an asshole.

Law of proportion, girl.

Oh. I'm sorry he was so rude.

I don't know what's
wrong with him today.

He lives in the middle
of the fucking woods,

- that's what's wrong with him.

You realize this could
just be a rebound thing.

Yeah. I know.

Watch your step, girls.

Ooh!
What's so funny in here?

Stop all that laughing.
No more fun.

Savannah and Belle,
I want to get a picture of you-

- cause I got my camera.
I need a new picture.

Can you just stand up-

- because I want to get
the sunlight coming in,

- so I can catch it
on your pretty face.

Belle, I want to get a picture
of you and Savannah,

- so could you two stand up together.

Yeah.
There we go.

Let's get this in the frame.

Savannah could you move
a little bit closer to Belle.

I did want to just take one picture-

- that was the idea.
Okay.

Belle, could you just put your
arm around Savannah there-

- so we can...

Just put your arm around.
There you go.

Smile pretty for the camera.

Say cheese.
Ah, that is a beautiful picture.

Excuse me.

- Hi.
- Hi.

What are you doing here?

I just couldn't let it go that easily.

Robert, don't you have a show?

Savannah, you're more
important than any show.

How nice of you to come.

- My pleasure.
- Lovely to see you.

You don't understand
I haven't been alone here.

Belle? Excuse me, love.

Can you come here a second?

They've had heat between
them for a lot of years-

- and they always end up
back on each other's doorstep.

They're cut the same.

Gilberts have no place in this house.

I can see that.

- Come back with me.
- I'm not ready.

So, where is he today?

- This has nothing to do with him.
- You're right.

It was just your way
of getting back at me.

Making me jealous. It worked.

Robert?

You know you're mine.

You don't belong with anyone.

I'm not a piece of furniture.

- No. I know. I didn't mean that.
- Yes, you did. You did.

Look. I have to get back.

Did I see you with Robert?

- Savannah?
- Henry, hi.

Is everything okay?

You look like you're
waiting for someone?

Well, I... I thought I was,

- but I guess not.

Oh, Savannah Delongpre,
Chelsy Parker.

It's nice to meet you.

I hope you're taking good care of him.

Excuse me.

He brought this tonight.

Why didn't he stay?

- He's a Gilbert.
- That's not my fault.

It's not his, either.

And besides, he saw you
entertaining another gentleman.

If you love him, honey, don't wait.

There's too much
waiting done around here.

Where do you think you're going?

You can't stop me from seeing him.

Savannah?

- What do you want?
- I didn't know you were there.

That's right. You were busy.

Oh, Jake, don't do this.
Don't shut me out.

- It's over with him.
- Didn't look over.

You don't understand. Listen.

- Yeah. I do.
- No.

Yes. You and he come
from the same place.

- You're cut the same.
- That's bullshit.

- Listen to me.
- No. You listen to me.

I don't need this crap.

Remember what happened last
time you tried to throw me out?

Yeah.

You don't have to worry
about that happening.

Why is it this place is
always breaking my heart?

Oh, shit.

Oh.

You.

Come on.

I'm starving. When is it ready?

Stop it. Stop it.

- You can't rush an omelet.
- Okay.

- Hi.
- Good morning.

I had no idea you were so good

- in the kitchen.
- I'm serious.

Come here. Come here.

I can see that. I can see that.
So, I'll just sit over here.

- Yeah.
- That's it.

I'll sit over here by myself.

See, cooking's an art, you know.

It's a science. It's not an art,
it's a science.

What? Savannah,
this is almost ready.

- I know.
- Savannah, I'm not kidding.

- You're not kidding?
- I'm not kidding.

I'm not kidding.

- Oh, it's burning.
- What's burning?

- It's burning.
- Shit.

You look damn good doing it.

Oh! Smell these vegetables.

You can't get this in New York.

Hey-hey!
Catch. Catch.

- What's that?
- It's a kite.

I don't believe that's
gonna be a problem.

Yes, Sir.

Let me get back to you.

- Mr. Lee?
- Henry.

It's real good to see you-

- again, sir.
- How are you?

I had a real good time
at the party.

Henry, I must compliment you-

- on your town here.
It's quite beautiful.

- Hmm.
- A little quiet, but...

What would you say-

- the population is?
- The pop...

Well, we're growing so much
you wouldn't believe it.

Hey, is this as fast you can go?

I'm doing all the work here.

Yes, sir.
She's, uh...

- She's lovely.
- I bet everyone was watching you-

- when you walked in with her, huh?

- Well, yes.
- Felt nice, didn't it?

Mr. Lee, uh, I've known Savannah-

- all her life.

In fact, I was friend of her mama.

You had a good time,
though, didn't you?

Mr. Lee,

while you're here, I believe
you could be interested-

- in some development property
work down by the river-

- where we're getting ready to
make some good money on it.

- Henry?
- Hmm?

You trying to sell me
some swampland there?

- Well...
- Joking.

Was there something
you wanted, Mr. Lee?

I'd like to buy you lunch, Henry.

Come here.

Delongpre residents.

Uh, this is Henry Walker. May
I speak with Savannah, please.

She isn't in.

But it's a... it's real
important I speak with her.

It's regarding an
offer of Two Moon.

I'll give her your message.

When do you expect her back?

I'd say she's gonna
be tied up for a while.

Fine.

Go! Go! Go!

- Oh, we got it!
- Go! Go! Oh, no!

Oh!

Okay. Nice job.

All right. Nice job.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Okay, ready?

- Here you go.
- Hut.

Yes.

I've never shown these
to anybody before.

This is Two Moon.

My dad brought me
here when I was little.

I knew I had to come back.

There is just something
about this place.

Jake, you could work in New York.

- I don't think so.
- Why not?

Jake, you're good.

You're really good.

I don't know about good.

I don't know if it's about that.

I was in New York
about five years ago.

I had the loft in the Village,
the trendy agent.

Everything.

Then I started making
these hideous hip pieces-

- I hated it.

Then I didn't make anything at all.

This place...

This place saved me.

Hmm.

Hmm.

Here.

Thank you.

So, who says you need a VCR?

I don't know.
Are we missing the playoffs?

I wish...

What?

I wish she were here.

Sometimes...

...sometimes I just
wish I could talk to her.

She used to talk to me all the time.

Nana never talked to me.

I remember the argument
Nana and she had.

I remember that night
she walked out the door-

- and she never came back.

After that...

...after she drowned,

- things changed.

Nana, she just kept pulling
more and more away.

And I always thought-

- that maybe one day she'd say,

- "Good job, Savannah.

I love you, Savannah."

But she never did.

I left the minute I turned eighteen.

Did you find what you were
looking for in New York?

I thought I had.

But I think I only found part of it.

I promise I'll be there soon.

Uh-huh. Ciao.

Don't get up.

Where are you going?

Well, I have to straighten
some things out with Robert.

He does control my career.

- You want me to come?
- No.

No. Besides,
I need a new change of clothing.

When are you back?

I don't know. When I, uh...

...settle some things in
New York with Robert,

- so he doesn't screw it up
with this French designer.

And, actually, it's kind
of boring business stuff.

What?

What? You expect me
to just stop modeling-

- just like that?
I mean, it's what I do.

You go back there you get
sucked in that life again.

Give me some credit, Jake.

You'll be there, I'll be here.

This is not a big deal.

I mean, this is what
we have planes for.

I can visit you, you'll visit me.

I can't go back to that.

Jake,

- don't make me make
a decision like this.

I think you already have.

I love you.

Good morning.

Your grandma isn't up
too much of anything today.

Says the party did her in.

Why don't you take it in to her.

Thank you.

I left you a package.
Did you get it?

I don't need a new cane, Savannah.

This is so good. Mm.

That really hit the spot.

Mm.

Now, that looks good.

- You want some?
- No.

I already feel like Mrs. Mack truck.

I don't need more.

So, what's going
on with you and Jake?

I haven't seen much of you.
I could always use-

- a little vicarious thrill.
- Oh, well, he's great.

- It's great.
- Uh-hmm. But?

But what?

Well, there's always
a but in there. But what?

He picks his toenails after,
or he's a pathological liar?

- No.
- There's always a but-

- after all the heavy breathing stops.

He doesn't want me
to go to New York.

Uh-hmm. But what do you want?

Him. Both.

Oh, right. And I want
Ed McMahon to come to my door-

- and give me a check
for a million dollars.

No, seriously, this is different.

Uh-hmm.

Oh, Lord, I heard that one before.

That does look good.

- I don't need anymore.
- Sure. Have it. Go ahead.

- No. I shouldn't. I shouldn't.
- Yeah.

- You don't mind?
- No.

Okay.

Savannah, I have been
trying to get a hold of you.

Oh? Well, I've been staying
out at the summer place.

- Seems to be agreeing with you.
- It is. It is.

- I wish I'd known.
- Well, nobody did really.

Are you okay?

I'm sorry, Savannah.

The bank wouldn't wait.
You didn't pursue the deed.

Oh, that's okay.
That's what I stopped by to tell you.

I'm not buying Two Moon anymore.
I want Jake to have it.

Well, they refused his loan.

And Mr. Lee made such a good offer.

- What?
- Well, I told your grandmother.

You talked to her?

Well, I tried to get to you.

Now, I had to let her know
about Mr. Lee's offer.

And then she didn't seem
to think you were interested-

- in the property anymore
and she wouldn't wait.

Well, I'll just go talk
to my grandmother-

- and to the bank.
- I'm sorry, Savannah.

Paper's already signed.

- She's not here.
- I know.

She's okay?

Nothing happened?

She's okay.

I already told you,
I'm not interested in New York.

That's not why I'm here.

Then why are you here?

This is his wedding gift to her.

Robert bought Two Moon.

She said she was
going to New York.

She is.

With him.

They'll vacation
here between shows.

He's giving you
two weeks to vacate.

The hell he is.

- Where's Jake?
- He's already gone.

You helped Robert buy Two Moon.

He can make or break me, Savannah.

It's just business.

Is it?

- Where is she?
- She isn't in.

Ruth.

Is there anything
else of Savannah's?

I think you have
taken it all, Mr. Lee.

Thank you, Ruth.

She's better off with me.

Oh really?

Is that why she's coming
back to New York?

She's going back for the modeling.

You really think she'll last out here-

- for more than a week?

She was confused.

She was just trying
to get back at me.

I don't believe that.

Believe it, pal.

She speaks three languages.

She's gonna own New York in a year.

Do you really think that
you're enough for her?

Come on...

Haven't you figured it out yet?

You were just a distraction.

Oh, absolutely. I was thinking
two weeks she'd be ready for.

- Uh-huh. Oh, yeah.
- What the hell do you think-

- you're doing?
- Look. We'll be back-

- in a few days.
Let's talk logistics then, okay?

She looks great.
We'd love to.

Okay, ciao.

- Cleo has a new design for you.
- I don't care about Cleo.

I don't think you mean that?

You bought Two Moon.

For you. As a wedding gift.

Savannah, I know you
want your independence.

And this other guy...

Forget about him.

Robert, it doesn't work.

It has never worked.

Give me another chance.

Maybe we should just
say goodbye now.

I made you.

I made myself.

Savannah? Savannah?
Savannah?

Maybe I shouldn't be
with your agency anymore.

Savannah? Savannah?

You will regret this.

Don't tell me about regrets.

I'm not stiff and cold-

- and locked up in
a big empty house-

- with no one to love.

I won't listen to you talk like that.

You won't listen to anything.

You won't feel anything.

I've waited for years for you
to look at me and smile-

- as if you were happy to see me.

Well, I'm not gonna wait anymore.

My mother did
not drown on purpose.

And you can go on
blaming her and hating me-

- because I remind you
of her all you want.

But don't count on me
to be around for it.

Flight's at 8:00.

We'll be arriving back
in the 20th century.

Thank God,
in time for a late dinner-

- where we don't have to worry
about anyone seeing you all.

I want you to talk to her.

You talk to her, Robert.

I think I've already done enough.

Don't give up on her.

I haven't.
She's given up on me.

One of these days you're
gonna stop letting people go.

That is, if the good Lord
let's you live long enough-

- to realize you've been wrong.

You may have lost your true love,

- but Savannah doesn't
have to lose hers.

I told Mr. Lee I
want Two Moon back.

I don't want it.

Savannah, when I first saw Jake,
I couldn't believe-

- how much he looked like
his granddaddy Luke.

Look. I don't want to talk about
what the Gilberts did or Jake.

Besides, it doesn't matter, he's gone.

Savannah, wait.

I loved Luke Gilbert
with all my heart.

We used to meet out at Two Moon.

His daddy owned it.

It was the only place
we could go and be alone.

His daddy and my daddy
just hated each other.

I never did know why.

When they found out
we were seeing one another,

- my daddy wanted to
send me away to school,

- and his daddy
told him he'd kill him

if he ever stepped
foot near me again.

Did you?

We just couldn't be apart.

Luke was waiting for me
at the bridge one night.

But his daddy must
have followed him-

- because by the time I
got there, they were having-

- a terrible fight.

Luke was yelling about me.

And his daddy was hitting him
every time he said my name.

He was hurt so bad.

Savannah,

- if I've been hard on you,

- it's because you're so
much like your mother-

- and so like me and I was afraid-

- that what happened to
her would happen to you.

She drowned because
of the current, Nana.

It was an accident.

It would please me so
much if you would stay-

- and have dinner with me tonight.

Incredibly frantic.

And sometimes we'd
have up to ten changes-

- in less than a half...
In less than a half hour.

And rushing, you know,
two minutes to change-

- completely different styles.

Oh, it's just.

Well, I don't know.

Need help?

Oh. No. Thanks.
I just...

What time's the train?

Um, at 8:00.

- It's a nice ride to Atlanta.
- Yeah.

And he's a great designer.

I think it's gonna be a good show.

- I'm glad you stayed.
- Me too.

Okay.

I love you, Nana Belle.

I love you, darling.

Now you be careful.

Thank you.

...Birmingham, Houston, Atlanta.

I missed you.

Did you miss me?

Do you know how long
it takes to get to Atlanta?

It takes about an
hour and a half, sir.
