From HBO's amazingly wonderful TV series Six Feet Under Season 5, Episode 1 "A Coat of White Primer" Written by: Kate Robin Directed by: Rodrigo Garcia http://www.hbo.com/sixfeetunder/episode/season5/episode52.shtml -- Margaret: Are these big granny-panties your "something old"? Because they really kill the mood. Brenda: You can't see them through the dress, can you? Margaret: No, but they're hideous, sweetie. Would it kill you to wear a thong? Brenda: These are fine. Margaret: What's the matter? Brenda: Nothing's the matter. I just don't want to wear a thong. Margaret: Did something happen? Is it the baby? What is it? What happened? Oh, baby. Brenda: I don't want to fuck up my makeup. Margaret: Oh, honey. We'll just clean you up with a good powder. Here, I've got some Chanel in my purse. Brenda: I don't want to be late. Margaret: Honey, you don't have to worry about everything going right anymore. That boat has sailed. You know it happens all the time. So many of my friends-- Joanie, Celia, Aunt Mary before she had Deb. Even Teresa Heinz Kerry had one. And God knows, she looks terrific. Brenda: Aunt Mary did? Margaret: I'm telling you, more women have miscarried than they have masturbated with a dildo. They just don't talk about it. And then they have a baby, and then they're fine, sweetie. Brenda: I'd better change this fucking pad. If I get blood on this dress I'm gonna kill myself. -- David: I'm so sorry, Nate. Nate: Yeah, well... Just don't tell anybody, all right? We want to keep today kind of nice, you know? David: Are you going to try again? Nate: Yeah, of course, as soon as we can. David: You might want to give it some time. Nate: No no no. I don't want to wait. David: No, I mean, to grieve. Nate: You know, with all the fucked up shit that's happened in my life, I don't want to grieve anymore. I can't. I can't! I don't have it in me. David: Well, maybe Brenda needs to-- Nate: No, what Brenda needs to do is to get pregnant again. Soon. 'Cause, you know, it's not like she's 20. David: Yeah, but... I mean, with all the stuff Keith and I have been reading it seems psychological stress can really affect a woman's chances-- Nate: David, it's the only thing that's gonna make her feel better! Why should I wait? Why put it off? Because some bad shit happened and we need to feel really bad about it? I mean, bad shit happens every day. I mean, you of all people should know that. Move fucking on, you know? Anyway, I've already got Maya so it's not for me. David: But it'll be your child, your flesh and blood. How could it not be for you? Nate: Because it's what Brenda wants more than anything in the world, and I can make that happen for her.
