Excerpt
EXT. BACKYARD-NIGHT

MR. FITZPATRICK: "You know, Francis, you're afraid to ask her for a divorce. Why don't you just have sex with her in the meantime?"

FRANCIS: "Dad, I'm in love with another woman. I don't think it would be fair to have sex with Renee."

MR. FITZPATRICK: "Let me get this straight. You don't want to cheat on your girlfriend with your wife?"

FRANCIS: "Yeah. I guess so."

MR. FITZPATRICK: "Jesus Christ Francis. You sure I'm your father? You know, I'm gonna have to double check with your mother on this."

FRANCIS: "Come on, dad. I'm serious. How do you think mom will take it?

MR. FITZPATRICK: "She's gonna be devastated. She's been up at that goddamm church every morning praying for your brother. Then she tells me yesterday I spend too much time on the boat. Well I don't even want to get into that discussion. Now you're gonna get divorced. Christ. She'll be up there with Father John 24 hours a day. Thanks a lot, buddy. I'm probably going to have to start making my own breakfast again."

FRANCIS: "I'm sorry if my divorce interferes with your breakfast plans, dad."

MR. FITZPATRICK: "Hey, don't get all sensitive on me now, Barbara. You know, all your life, you've always wanted to screw every good-looking skirt who walked by. Now you're making all this money, you're probably finding you can have at least half of them."

FRANCIS: "Come on, dad. What have you been telling me my whole life? I gotta do what makes me happy first, right? Besides, it's normal male behavior, right? We can't control millions of years of evolution. You know how it's like, really? It's like you've been driving a '74 Buick your whole life. Then suddenly you find yourself behind the wheel of a brand-new Porsche. How do you go back to the Buick?"

MR. FITZPATRICK: "Yeah. I guess you can't."

FRANCIS: "You know what, dad? I'm really doing this for Renee. I'm sure she's gonna be really thrilled."

MR. Fitzpatrick leaves.
