[00:03.878] “one thing”
[00:06.288] I came out here for “one thing”
[00:09.748] And that little bitty “one thing”
[00:12.987] Was to forget about you
[00:16.772] But I guess I've learned something
[00:20.534] That there's never really “one thing”
[00:24.295] 'cause pretty quickly “one thing”
[00:27.859] Evolves into two, or three, or more
[00:31.935] For example
[00:32.735] See the light
[00:33.804] In the hallway?
[00:34.634] It was always flickering
[00:36.519] Ever since I was little
[00:38.135] It was always flickering
[00:39.749] After three days here it was unbearable
[00:43.266] My list grew
[00:45.158] 2. fix the light bulb
[00:46.529] And 1. forget about you
[00:52.715] Drove to town
[00:53.553] Bought a bulb
[00:54.366] One of those new LEDs
[00:56.247] Brought it home
[00:57.058] Put it in
[00:57.895] But the wires weren't connecting
[00:59.519] Suddenly they went on the fritz
[01:03.015] My list grew
[01:04.876] 3. rewire the ceiling
[01:06.475] 2. fix the light bulb
[01:08.089] And 1. forget about you
[01:13.731] So I went
[01:15.022] To the attic
[01:16.074] And to my utmost delight
[01:17.692] There it is
[01:18.506] Black mold
[01:19.620] Killing us slowly each night
[01:21.488] And I feel it's my duty to remove it
[01:24.448] My list grew
[01:26.315] 4. kill the black mold
[01:28.200] 3. rewire the ceiling
[01:29.795] 2. fix the lightbulb
[01:31.706] And 1. forget about you
[01:36.559] Judith: yeah, but my one thing
[01:39.520] -Is really just -Jase: I'm not done.
[01:41.423] See the tarp
[01:42.221] In the hallway?
[01:43.025] That used to be a gallery wall!
[01:44.919] Lots of pictures
[01:45.725] Super classy
[01:46.521] Sad I had to make the call
[01:48.122] But in scouring for mold I had to take the place apart
[01:54.832] Because sometimes to solve a problem
[01:59.391] You follow it back to the start
[02:02.610] Judith: oh, who's that?
[02:03.425] Jase: no one. it just does that when it rains! (crazed laugh)
[02:08.301] When I tried to rebuild
[02:09.926] The wall that I'd taken down
[02:11.795] I discovered
[02:12.620] Two holes burrowed right into the ground
[02:15.299] And I didn't have the heart to kill them so
[02:18.564] My list grew -
[02:19.900] But then
[02:20.688] The cement that I found
[02:22.557] To fill in the gaping holes
[02:24.168] Wasn't good
[02:24.985] It didn't stick
[02:25.786] Apparently cement can get old!?
[02:28.177] In trying to fix one thing
[02:30.081] I made everything worse
[02:34.956] My list grew
[02:36.825] 9. buy new cement
[02:38.451] 8. take care of this duck I found
[02:40.353] 7. clean out the pipes for the bathroom and kitchen
[02:43.652] 6. rebuild the wall
[02:45.783] 5. keep out the pests
[02:47.436] 4. kill the black mold
[02:49.063] 3. rewire the ceiling
[02:50.943] 2. fix the lightbulb
[02:52.581] And 1. forget about you
[02:59.338] Judith: I think it's lovely
[03:01.774] To see you fix up this old house
[03:05.538] Because you want it to be
[03:09.044] Nice for your family
[03:12.247] But I think maybe you're obsessing
[03:15.776] Over things you can control
[03:18.715] Hoping to control
[03:22.496] Your feelings for
[03:23.590] Jase: what? no. no, no, no, no, no, no.
[03:26.550] -Judith: So you came here -these things needed to get done. Okay. Okay.
[03:30.085] -Looking for one thing -just, just, just stop moving Towards me, just stay on your side of the room, okay,-
[03:33.019] -And you're saying that one thing -So we can talk this out.
[03:36.499] -Was to forget about me? -no, listen, no- listen, if my moms are going to be so nice to have me out here
[03:40.285] -Well all I am asking -and respect my need to be Alone during this really insane,
[03:43.805] -Is for you to do the first thing -crazy, impossible time of my life,
[03:47.309] -Which could also be the last thing -the absolute least I can do is, you know, just, just go around and,
[03:50.806] -That you do with me -and...destroy their house.
[03:54.619] Judith (cont'd): After tonight, you'll never hear from me again
[03:56.504] if that's what you want.
[03:58.130] everything we need to fix our marriage is inside this envelope.
[04:01.945] I'm asking for one chance.
[04:05.746] Both: we'll do this one thing
[04:09.241] It is the first thing
[04:12.504] We're doing together
[04:16.556] Since -Judith: you left without saying a word -Jase: I found out you were not who I thought you were
[04:20.619] Both: so we'll do this one thing
[04:23.581] It could be the last thing
[00:03.878] " one thing"
[00:06.288] I came out here for " one thing"
[00:09.748] And that little bitty " one thing"
