Nurse Jackie (2009–2015): Season 6, Episode 4 - Love Jungle - full transcript
Kevin's engagement has left Jackie reeling. After having a sex dream that involves both Eddie and Kevin, Jackie wakes up with Frank at the foot of her bed asking to move in. She's not ready for that and will have to think of some way to keep him at bay. While staking out Kevin's fiancé's dress shop with Antoinette, Jackie gets more than an eyeful when she witnesses the budding relationship between Kevin's fiancé, Mia, and Grace. Jackie makes a scene, forcing Kevin to cancel the dinner he had planned to formerly introduce them. Meanwhile, back at All Saints, Akalitus's string of luck at poker continues, Coop and Carrie's bond deepens when she decides to put him on television. Prentiss gets a visitor from his past: A childhood friend whose mild symptoms reveal a grave illness, forces Prentiss to reconcile who he was, who he is, and where his life with Zoey is heading. At lunch, Frank is still pressing Jackie to move in. With Mia and Grace on the brain, Jackie reminds Frank that she hasn't even met his kids. This observation leads to a revelation about Frank's past -- he had an affair, and consequently, his children no longer speak to him. Now Jackie has the ammo she needs to keep him from moving in. Frank asks to come over tonight and talk about it. Jackie agrees, then invites the entire crew from All Saints over for a poker night. Frank knows that Jackie is trying to put him off, but when he presses the matter, Jackie tells him that Kevin had an affair and she is reluctant to get involved with a cheater. Frank backs off. With everyone from All Saints distracted with poker, and Frank taking the dog for a walk, Jackie swallows five pills. Frank sees the whole thing. Jackie has no idea that she's been caught.
Previously on Nurse Jackie...
You're still here? You should've
been out of here hours ago.
I was trying to figure out
who I needed to talk to...
about getting this young lady on
TV to do some medical segments.
My online dating profile
attracted a top-rated semen scout.
Is that a specimen kit?
I'm almost 40. I'm alone.
This is my shot.
I'm on a winning streak.
I won $5,000 last night.
Scratchers for everyone.
Hi. Yes, this is
Dr. Carrie Roman.
I'm calling in an OxyContin
prescription for my patient to pick up.
Jackie, this is a
vulnerable time.
Just promise me you won't
make any big decisions today.
- What the hell is that?
- I got a dog.
Honey, you sure you want a dog?
Don't you have enough to take care of?
I'm gonna need you to come with
me. Grace was picked up for shoplifting.
- She what?
- It's not a big deal.
I just wanted to
cut my hair today.
Mia said I'd look
great with bangs.
Do you know who Mia is?
Mia is Dad's fiancée.
♪♪
♪♪
Kevin's getting married.
Oh. Good for him.
I don't have to feel
guilty anymore, Eddie.
Guilty about what?
Oh, Jesus.
- Do you want me
to take the dog out?
- Yes. Yes!
Do you want me
to take the dog out?
Yes.
That was some yes.
Who were you dreaming about?
Oh, Brad Pitt. Sorry.
You're dating other
men in your head?
I think I should move in
here and stake my claim.
I'm here all the time
anyway. It's kind of logical.
I'm meeting Kevin's
fiancée tonight.
One logical thing
at a time, okay?
Got it. You need
to be convinced.
I'll begin by taking
the dog out for a shit.
Come on, Slippers.
Let's go, baby.
I'm so glad you're here. I would
feel like such a lunatic otherwise.
Oh, you're not a lunatic.
We're just two nice ladies...
drinking really
expensive coffee...
and spying on Kevin's fiancée.
No, nothing crazy here.
Listen. If you
want to stay clean,
you gotta know what you're dealing
with before you're dealing with it.
Oh, my God. Is that her?
Jesus Christ, she's pretty.
What? Jackie.
Hi. Excuse me.
Excuse me. Hi. I'm sorry.
I'm sure you're a
very nice person,
but, uh, we are supposed to be
punishing Grace for shoplifting,
not buying her affection.
You're fucking crazy, Jackie.
Did you just call me Jackie?
You can't call me Jackie.
You're Jackie? Hi, I'm...
Mia. Yes, hello.
Hello, Mia. Hello.
Give me that.
Um, you're welcome.
I asked Grace to pick out
something that you might like.
You know, just like a
little icebreaker for tonight.
Is... Oh.
Oh. Yeah.
Ice broken. Good job.
U-Uh, do you want to
take Grace to school?
I mean, you're here.
Oh, no, no. That's
okay. You two go ahead.
Okay. Well, it's very nice to
meet you. Nice to meet you too.
Yes, I will see
you, uh, tonight.
Okay. Well, bye.
What'd you get?
Thank you.
Someone tell her
this is not Pinkberry.
Her 10th visit isn't free.
- Mrs. Harrison, you're back.
- I know you all hate me.
- Oh, we don't hate you.
- Kelly's been coughing
a lot, Dr. Cooper.
- She woke up four times...
- Hey, do you mind if I change...
in your office tonight
for my TV report?
- Big star can't change
in the bathroom?
- Your jealousy is boring.
- Mmm. You know what's boring?
- Is this what
you people do all day?
My baby's sick. Hi.
What's going on with Kelly?
She's been coughing all night.
All right. Come with me.
Why don't you have
a seat right over here?
Grace called me four times.
She said you went ninja
stalker on Kevin's fiancée.
She's embarrassed.
I totally approve.
Zoey, can you get a
crib for Kelly? Of course.
Yeah, I know. I know, I know.
I think we should do
dinner another time.
What can I say, Kev? I blew it.
We're not ready for this.
What you mean is I'm not
ready for this. You can say it.
Another time.
Yeah, okay.
Fuck you, Gloria! Fuck you!
And you thought you
had me, you fucker.
Gloria won 300 off of
Dr. Solomon. Can you believe it?
Congratulations. Uh,
we're backed up. Oh.
Oh. Enough said.
I heard you got a dog.
Ribs a little tender? They don't
exactly pad the steering wheel.
Where'd your
flattop go, brother?
- Holy shit. My brother. How you been, man?
- All right.
You know each other?
Peanut and I grew up together.
Peanut?
The rest of us
chowed on Corn Nuts.
Ike was fancy. He
only ate peanuts.
Yeah, well, peanuts are natural.
Who the fuck knows what
they put in a Corn Nut?
So the chart says that
you've been in an accident.
Leg fell asleep. Foot
slipped off the brake.
But then again, you and me,
we never knew
when to stop, right?
- He didn't?
- Life of
the motherfucking party.
- Do tell.
- Let's keep the focus
on the patient, please.
- So you've been tired lately?
- I move boxes 13 hours a day.
I'm always tired.
The ladies loved him.
Whatever girl he was dating,
he'd shave her initials into his fade.
My middle name is
Margo, by the way.
Nurse, set up
an I.V. for fluids...
and get an X-ray of
Mr. Morgan's chest,
and one of his
right leg, please.
Mr. Morgan? Nurse?
Someone was super
unprofessional in his professionalism.
Not every patient
is your friend, Zoey.
I'm sorry. I was under the
impression that he was your friend.
Just do your job, okay?
What the heck did I do?
Don't assume that
this is about you.
Her lungs are pretty congested.
Can I, please?
Stand at the head of the bed.
You can see everything we're doing.
Shh, shh, shh.
Temperature, 100.4.
Let's swab for strep,
run an R.S.V. test...
and, uh, set her
up for nebulized air.
That's it?
That is the proper
course of treatment, yes.
This is her baby, Coop.
She's just concerned.
My mom told me about
you going overseas.
Must have seen some crazy shit.
It was nothing that
I couldn't handle.
Sorry you had to go over there.
Day I joined the army was
the greatest day of my life.
You want to know what the
greatest day of my life was?
The day you and
I ditched school...
and took the train
to Coney Island.
Everybody thought
we were Kid 'n Play.
And we just let them think that.
We weren't gonna let nobody
think we weren't famous.
I was more of a
Hammer girl myself.
I know it's a little
uncomfortable,
but it really needs
to stay on, okay?
No matter how much she
cries. Come here, baby.
Here we go. There we go. Great.
You got it? Yeah.
Mia bailed on dinner.
You make the new lady nervous.
Take that as a compliment.
Hey, isn't this
neighborhood great?
Mmm.
Look at that. "Now leasing."
How'd you like
to be the couple...
that could afford to live in
one of those places? Mmm.
Let's be that couple.
I haven't met your kids, and
you want to move in together?
Let's just take this one
thing at a time, okay?
You're not into
it. Memo received.
Listen. Saturday,
how about we pick up your boys,
and we'll... I don't know.
What do they like to do?
They haven't spoken
to me in a year.
Things were okay, you know?
Divorce was final, two houses.
- Pretty smooth.
- What happened?
It's not important.
It's becoming very important.
They found out that I cheated
on their mother with a coworker,
and things aren't
okay right now,
but they will be.
You know, everyone just needs
some time, that's all. A year?
We all got our stuff, Jack.
Wow.
Cheating, the stuff with your kids...
you're just full of secrets, aren't you?
- Where you going?
- Uh, back to work.
You might feel a little nausea.
I'm a doctor. I know
how Plan B works.
Oh, right. You're
that TV doctor.
That piece on shingles... epic.
Okay.
- Jesus.
- Hi.
Hi.
- You okay?
- Yeah.
Do you... fine.
Just not gonna sleep with
random guys I hate anymore.
Good for you.
Well, thanks for the girl talk.
Still in pain, Ms. Wood?
Hey.
You still mad at me?
It's more shock than anything.
Yeah, well, I'm still
sitting on this park bench...
trying to figure out how
to finish our conversation.
Is it okay if I
come over tonight?
Sure, okay.
It's not playing the cards,
it's playing the people.
Messing with their perception
of you... that's the real thrill.
Teach me your secrets.
I want to be cagey too.
Yeah. How come you
never play with us?
Wouldn't want to take all
your hard-earned money.
- We'll play with pennies.
- When and where?
How about my place tonight?
- What?
- You never have people over.
All right.
Here's something that
none of you know about me.
I'm a card shark.
- I can't tell
if you're kidding.
- That's how good I am.
I shall bring my penny jar.
Eddie, poker party
at my place tonight.
But you live in
abject isolation.
Just bring something.
I have nothing
to report on today.
I tell you, working in
television wouldn't be so hard...
if homeless people
were more telegenic.
I really don't
feel sorry for you.
You get to be on TV while I have
been dealing with screaming infants.
Coop!
She's cyanotic.
She was crying so hard.
I thought... I thought if I
held her... Shh, shh, shh.
Can you step back,
please, Mrs. Harrison?
- It's not working. We need to intubate.
- What are you doing to my baby?
Dr. Roman, can you please tell
Mrs. Harrison what's going on here?
- Step back, please.
- It's okay. It's all right.
Come here.
Kelly's in really good hands.
They're intubating
her to help her breathe.
Dr. Cooper is inserting a
small tube into her trachea.
She's not in any pain.
Come on, baby.
Stay with us, Kelly.
Stay with us, honey.
Hey, you hear that?
That's the sound of
your baby breathing.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
I was really excited to meet
someone you grew up with.
Oh, that is not good.
Bone cancer.
I'm gonna bring in an
oncologist to talk to him.
Keep it professional?
It's better that way.
Shouldn't he hear
it from you, Peanut?
I'm so glad I came here.
Yeah, Kelly's gonna be fine.
She has an infection.
What we call R.S.V.
Kids get it in playgrounds and at
schools and E.R. waiting rooms.
I'm sorry. I don't understand.
Well, you've been here
three times in the last week.
The E.R. is full of germs.
It is no place for
a healthy infant.
This was my fault?
Oh, listen, we've
all been there.
You want to be a good mom.
This is for Kelly.
This is for you.
I put my number in there.
The next time you're
worried about Kelly's health,
why don't you text me?
I'll let you know if
it's an emergency.
The Love Jungle?
Yeah, some escapist crap.
Do yourself a favor,
get out of your head.
♪♪
Wow.
- Look at this place.
- It's all Mia.
She says Astoria is
the new Williamsburg.
Ah.
These kids like beef
jerky in their drinks.
I made a big mistake.
I am completely embarrassed.
But I am worried.
I am worried that our
daughter is out of control...
and there are no repercussions.
I want to show you something.
You missed a spot.
Shut up. I'm done.
You're not even half done.
Shitty job. Felt like
suitable punishment.
Community service. I like it.
Am I doing good, Mommy?
You're doing great, sweetie.
Okay, let me have it.
I'm not angry.
Well, you have
every right to be.
I'm sure I completely
freaked her out.
I'd rather just
clean-slate this one.
My life's really good right now,
and I don't want to be the
reason things go south for you.
You're thinking
about me an awful lot.
Old habits.
Yeah.
How'd it go?
I may take up breathing
again next year.
This day had relapse
written all over it.
You did great.
Thank you for being
here today with me...
and doing whatever this is.
Want to grab a bite, celebrate?
Uh, I would love to,
but a bunch of people
are coming to my house
tonight to play poker.
Poker? Yeah.
No. Nurses. Pennies. Harmless.
Huh. No, it's not that.
It's just you were my
plans for the evening.
No big deal.
Oh. Well, you want to...
Want to come? Yes,
I do. Very, very much.
Oh, okay.
Should I introduce
you as my sponsor?
Jesus, God, no. Then
they'll all just look at me funny.
Why don't you lie and
say I'm your friend?
I can do that.
Good news.
I found my story.
That mom today with her baby...
I'll never know
what it's like to...
love someone that much.
Hey, never say never.
You saved a baby's life today.
You are my story, dummy.
My brother.
Shit.
You have a sizable
mass in your right shin.
A mass?
Bone cancer.
We gotta get you
to an oncologist.
But I would be lying if I
didn't tell you it's very serious.
I'm not old.
We're not old, man.
I'm gonna send you
to the best specialist.
Who's gonna tell my wife?
We can do that together.
Damn.
Who's gonna tell my mom?
No, you're on your
own with that one, man.
I mean, that woman still
scares the shit out of me.
Oh, wow, it's cute. How
long have you been here?
Oh, I don't know. Forever.
Yeah, kind of
looks like forever.
It's got a lot of curb appeal.
Ah, there's Eddie.
The pharmacist? There he is.
Hey. How's it going?
- Can I get a hand here?
- Yeah, I'll help you.
Hey. Hi.
- Hi.
- Who's that?
It's a friend. Oh,
good-looking friend.
- Good-looking bike.
- Thanks.
Kevin's getting remarried.
Oh, good for him.
I, uh... I brought beers.
I hope that's okay.
Everybody is so careful
around me. Jesus.
He's cute.
It was a harrowing scene...
at All Saints Hospital today,
where one infant's cold
almost turned out to be her last.
But thanks to the heroics of
one medical professional...
Medical professional!
Young Kelly will live
to breathe another day.
- As a medical professional...
- Medical professional!
It's pretty much okay
for kids to eat dirt.
Turn it off before I
am totally shit-faced.
Little help in here,
please. Yeah.
- You're doing good.
- So, Antoinette,
how long have you known Jackie?
Uh... Uh, she's
kind of a new friend.
Well, I've known Jackie
for a really long time.
Mmm. Where did you meet?
Oh. Oh, oh, oh.
Wow.
She's gonna be so
terrible at this game.
I come prepared.
Zoey, weakness means strength.
Strength means weakness.
They're crazy, slow down.
They slow down, go crazy.
Lucy, I'm home.
- Hey, everyone.
- Hey.
Who needs another beer?
Uh, yeah. Thanks.
You invited all these people
over so we didn't have to talk?
Okay. I had problems in my
marriage, Jack. I never said I didn't.
Yeah, you don't talk to
your kids. I didn't know that.
- I never lied to you.
- No, you lied to your wife.
Okay, that's not fair.
Look, I am trying to
manage my sobriety here.
Do you have any idea
how difficult that is?
I can't be in another relationship
that is based on secrets and lies.
We are still learning things
about each other, Jack.
That is a very different
thing than lying.
Okay, here it is.
Kevin cheated on me.
I'm not Kevin, okay?
I'm not even the guy
I was five years ago.
Now we are doing
better than you think.
We are.
This is a discovery
period, okay?
Look, I have people over.
I don't want to spend the whole
night in the kitchen arguing with you.
Just when we're
getting somewhere?
All right.
We're not done
talking about this.
You mind taking the dog out?
Come on, Slippers.
Hey, Frank.
You gotta call your kids.
Yeah, I know.
Come on, sweetheart. Let's go.
Zoey, are you in or out?
I'm bluffing. I'm sorry.
You want to see my hand,
you better raise or call.
You don't scare me. Call.
- Go.
- Come on, sexy.
You are so full of shit. I call.
Oh, my God. You
are both full of shit.
- Go.
- I got it.
Bam! Damn it.
All right, people.
Everybody show your hand.

and we'll... I don't know.
What do they like to do?
They haven't spoken
to me in a year.
Things were okay, you know?
Divorce was final, two houses.
- Pretty smooth.
- What happened?
It's not important.
It's becoming very important.
They found out that I cheated
on their mother with a coworker,
and things aren't
okay right now,
but they will be.
You know, everyone just needs
some time, that's all. A year?
We all got our stuff, Jack.
Wow.
Cheating, the stuff with your kids...
you're just full of secrets, aren't you?
- Where you going?
- Uh, back to work.
You might feel a little nausea.
I'm a doctor. I know
how Plan B works.
Oh, right. You're
that TV doctor.
That piece on shingles... epic.
Okay.
- Jesus.
- Hi.
Hi.
- You okay?
- Yeah.
Do you... fine.
Just not gonna sleep with
random guys I hate anymore.
Good for you.
Well, thanks for the girl talk.
Still in pain, Ms. Wood?
Hey.
You still mad at me?
It's more shock than anything.
Yeah, well, I'm still
sitting on this park bench...
trying to figure out how
to finish our conversation.
Is it okay if I
come over tonight?
Sure, okay.
It's not playing the cards,
it's playing the people.
Messing with their perception
of you... that's the real thrill.
Teach me your secrets.
I want to be cagey too.
Yeah. How come you
never play with us?
Wouldn't want to take all
your hard-earned money.
- We'll play with pennies.
- When and where?
How about my place tonight?
- What?
- You never have people over.
All right.
Here's something that
none of you know about me.
I'm a card shark.
- I can't tell
if you're kidding.
- That's how good I am.
I shall bring my penny jar.
Eddie, poker party
at my place tonight.
But you live in
abject isolation.
Just bring something.
I have nothing
to report on today.
I tell you, working in
television wouldn't be so hard...
if homeless people
were more telegenic.
I really don't
feel sorry for you.
You get to be on TV while I have
been dealing with screaming infants.
Coop!
She's cyanotic.
She was crying so hard.
I thought... I thought if I
held her... Shh, shh, shh.
Can you step back,
please, Mrs. Harrison?
- It's not working. We need to intubate.
- What are you doing to my baby?
Dr. Roman, can you please tell
Mrs. Harrison what's going on here?
- Step back, please.
- It's okay. It's all right.
Come here.
Kelly's in really good hands.
They're intubating
her to help her breathe.
Dr. Cooper is inserting a
small tube into her trachea.
She's not in any pain.
Come on, baby.
Stay with us, Kelly.
Stay with us, honey.
Hey, you hear that?
That's the sound of
your baby breathing.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
I was really excited to meet
someone you grew up with.
Oh, that is not good.
Bone cancer.
I'm gonna bring in an
oncologist to talk to him.
Keep it professional?
It's better that way.
Shouldn't he hear
it from you, Peanut?
I'm so glad I came here.
Yeah, Kelly's gonna be fine.
She has an infection.
What we call R.S.V.
Kids get it in playgrounds and at
schools and E.R. waiting rooms.
I'm sorry. I don't understand.
Well, you've been here
three times in the last week.
The E.R. is full of germs.
It is no place for
a healthy infant.
This was my fault?
Oh, listen, we've
all been there.
You want to be a good mom.
This is for Kelly.
This is for you.
I put my number in there.
The next time you're
worried about Kelly's health,
why don't you text me?
I'll let you know if
it's an emergency.
The Love Jungle?
Yeah, some escapist crap.
Do yourself a favor,
get out of your head.
♪♪
Wow.
- Look at this place.
- It's all Mia.
She says Astoria is
the new Williamsburg.
Ah.
These kids like beef
jerky in their drinks.
I made a big mistake.
I am completely embarrassed.
But I am worried.
I am worried that our
daughter is out of control...
and there are no repercussions.
I want to show you something.
You missed a spot.
Shut up. I'm done.
You're not even half done.
Shitty job. Felt like
suitable punishment.
Community service. I like it.
Am I doing good, Mommy?
You're doing great, sweetie.
Okay, let me have it.
I'm not angry.
Well, you have
every right to be.
I'm sure I completely
freaked her out.
I'd rather just
clean-slate this one.
My life's really good right now,
and I don't want to be the
reason things go south for you.
You're thinking
about me an awful lot.
Old habits.
Yeah.
How'd it go?
I may take up breathing
again next year.
This day had relapse
written all over it.
You did great.
Thank you for being
here today with me...
and doing whatever this is.
Want to grab a bite, celebrate?
Uh, I would love to,
but a bunch of people
are coming to my house
tonight to play poker.
Poker? Yeah.
No. Nurses. Pennies. Harmless.
Huh. No, it's not that.
It's just you were my
plans for the evening.
No big deal.
Oh. Well, you want to...
Want to come? Yes,
I do. Very, very much.
Oh, okay.
Should I introduce
you as my sponsor?
Jesus, God, no. Then
they'll all just look at me funny.
Why don't you lie and
say I'm your friend?
I can do that.
Good news.
I found my story.
That mom today with her baby...
I'll never know
what it's like to...
love someone that much.
Hey, never say never.
You saved a baby's life today.
You are my story, dummy.
My brother.
Shit.
You have a sizable
mass in your right shin.
A mass?
Bone cancer.
We gotta get you
to an oncologist.
But I would be lying if I
didn't tell you it's very serious.
I'm not old.
We're not old, man.
I'm gonna send you
to the best specialist.
Who's gonna tell my wife?
We can do that together.
Damn.
Who's gonna tell my mom?
No, you're on your
own with that one, man.
I mean, that woman still
scares the shit out of me.
Oh, wow, it's cute. How
long have you been here?
Oh, I don't know. Forever.
Yeah, kind of
looks like forever.
It's got a lot of curb appeal.
Ah, there's Eddie.
The pharmacist? There he is.
Hey. How's it going?
- Can I get a hand here?
- Yeah, I'll help you.
Hey. Hi.
- Hi.
- Who's that?
It's a friend. Oh,
good-looking friend.
- Good-looking bike.
- Thanks.
Kevin's getting remarried.
Oh, good for him.
I, uh... I brought beers.
I hope that's okay.
Everybody is so careful
around me. Jesus.
He's cute.
It was a harrowing scene...
at All Saints Hospital today,
where one infant's cold
almost turned out to be her last.
But thanks to the heroics of
one medical professional...
Medical professional!
Young Kelly will live
to breathe another day.
- As a medical professional...
- Medical professional!
It's pretty much okay
for kids to eat dirt.
Turn it off before I
am totally shit-faced.
Little help in here,
please. Yeah.
- You're doing good.
- So, Antoinette,
how long have you known Jackie?
Uh... Uh, she's
kind of a new friend.
Well, I've known Jackie
for a really long time.
Mmm. Where did you meet?
Oh. Oh, oh, oh.
Wow.
She's gonna be so
terrible at this game.
I come prepared.
Zoey, weakness means strength.
Strength means weakness.
They're crazy, slow down.
They slow down, go crazy.
Lucy, I'm home.
- Hey, everyone.
- Hey.
Who needs another beer?
Uh, yeah. Thanks.
You invited all these people
over so we didn't have to talk?
Okay. I had problems in my
marriage, Jack. I never said I didn't.
Yeah, you don't talk to
your kids. I didn't know that.
- I never lied to you.
- No, you lied to your wife.
Okay, that's not fair.
Look, I am trying to
manage my sobriety here.
Do you have any idea
how difficult that is?
I can't be in another relationship
that is based on secrets and lies.
We are still learning things
about each other, Jack.
That is a very different
thing than lying.
Okay, here it is.
Kevin cheated on me.
I'm not Kevin, okay?
I'm not even the guy
I was five years ago.
Now we are doing
better than you think.
We are.
This is a discovery
period, okay?
Look, I have people over.
I don't want to spend the whole
night in the kitchen arguing with you.
Just when we're
getting somewhere?
All right.
We're not done
talking about this.
You mind taking the dog out?
Come on, Slippers.
Hey, Frank.
You gotta call your kids.
Yeah, I know.
Come on, sweetheart. Let's go.
Zoey, are you in or out?
I'm bluffing. I'm sorry.
You want to see my hand,
you better raise or call.
You don't scare me. Call.
- Go.
- Come on, sexy.
You are so full of shit. I call.
Oh, my God. You
are both full of shit.
- Go.
- I got it.
Bam! Damn it.
All right, people.
Everybody show your hand.
