Weeds

Widowed suburbanite Nancy Botwin (Mary-Louise Parker) starts growing and selling marijuana to make enough money to support her family after her husband's unexpected death leaves her in big debt. Nancy has associates in her pot-growing business, which include Andy, who is her brother-in-law, and pot-smoking City Councilman Doug Wilson. Then there's the business of trying to keep the whole thing secret from people like her neighbor Celia.

Andy Botwin:
[to Shane about masturbation] Alright, listen closely. I'm not going to beat around the bush. Ha ha ha. Your little body's changing - it's all good, believe me. Problem now is... every time we jerk the gerkin, we get a lot of unwanted sticky white stuff everywhere, right? Right. So... First order of business - no more socks. They're expensive, gumming up the works plumming-wise. Now you might be thinking to yourself, "But, Uncle Andy, what do I do with all that pearl jam if I can't spew it into Mr. Sock?" Glad you asked... You can have a lovely time tugging the tiger in the shower each morning - that eliminates the need for a goo glove. But, the day is long, masturbation's fun, so unless we want to take 4 or 5 showers every day, we're gonna need some other options. So let's start with the basics. Tissues. Perfectly acceptable backstop for all that Creamy Italian. They can be rough and dry on such soft, sensitive skin and it can stick to your dick head like a f***in' band-aid - ouch. From there we move on to more lubricated flack-catchers - specificially, bananas. Step one: Peel the banana. Step two: Slip the peel over your Randy Johnson and start pitching. Now for extra credit, warm up the peel in the microwave. Not too hot! Serious yowza. Also, olive oil, moisturizer, honey, spit, butter, hair conditioner, and Vaseline can all be used for lube. In my opinion, the best lube... is lube. So save your allowance and invest in some soon. Alright, moving on - when you tug your Thomas on the toilet - ffft - shoot right into the bowl. In bed - soft t-shirt, perhaps a downy hand towel of your very own that you don't mind tossing after tossing. There's no such thing as polishing the raised scepter of love too much. It reduces stress, it enhances immune function. Also, practice makes perfect. So work on your control now, while you're a solo artist - you'll be playing some long, happy duets in the future. Ok - class dismissed. [Shane gets up to walk away] Hey! [tosses Shane a banana] . Homework.

Terrifically Carol:
[Nancy is ordering a gift basket by phone to be delivered that night, because it's Silas' birthday. She's talking to the operator] Now, what would you like the card to say?

Nancy Botwin:
[Nancy doubts for a while] Mmmm, Dear Silas: Happy Birthday. Happy 18th Birthday... Um... Don't write "um"... I think you're an amazing son. I'm so proud to be your mom... "Be your mom". Jesus, that sounds like bullshit, doesn't it? [She laughs] Um... [Ironic] Dear Silas: If you never see me again, I've probably been murdered. Enjoy the dried apricots and butter cookies.

Terrifically Carol:
[Interrupts Nancy] The Sterling Celebration doesn't come with butter cookies, but if you like to add them, I certainly can do that.

Nancy Botwin:
[Anoyed while Carol is still talking] Yeah... can you stop talking for a second? Could yoy please be quiet and listen? Just listen.

Terrifically Carol:
[after an awkward silence] I'm listening.

Nancy Botwin:
Starting over. Dear Silas... umm... thank for raising yourself these past 18 years. You... you've done a great job.

Terrifically Carol:
[Silence. Nancy looks really sad, thinking about where she's going and the choice she've made] Ms. Botwin? Are you okay, Ms. Botwin?

Nancy Botwin:
[Nancy cannot speak. She tries to a few times, but can't. Says no with her head] Silas... you are loved. Me. Signed it "me".

Terrifically Carol:
Just "me"?

Nancy Botwin:
Yeah, "me". No, "mom". "Me, mom". Please get that for him tonight. Thanks, Carol.

Terrifically Carol:
You take care, Ms. Bowtin.

[Andy is speaking to Shane about masturbation... ]

Andy Botwin:
All right, listen closely, I'm not gonna beat around the bush. HAHAHAHAHA!

[Shane stares blankly]

[Shane starts to leave]

Andy Botwin:
Hey...

[Shane stops, and Andy tosses him a banana]

Andy Botwin:
Homework.

[Celia and Nancy are having a disagreement about Nancy's half-hearted work on Celia's campaign for City Council]

Celia Hodes:
...If you can't make time for the pressing problems of greater Agrestic...

Nancy Botwin:
That's exactly it - I can't make time. I've got problems at home.[starts for the door]

Celia Hodes:
[with a concerned look on her face, Celia follows] Really? Do you wanna' talk about it?

Nancy Botwin:
I don't wanna' talk about it. i just wanna' go home.

Celia Hodes:
Ya' know, I tell you about my husband's unemployment, my daughter being the face of America's trans fat...so...tell me what's going on with you? Please? Nancy...

Nancy Botwin:
[not wanting to hurt her feelings] ...Celia...

Celia Hodes:
Aren't we friends?

Nancy Botwin:
I just wanna' go!

Celia Hodes:
[disappointed] You can't even say it. You don't want to be my friend!

Nancy Botwin:
[gestures toward Celia] Everything is not about you, Celia!

[Nancy turns to leave. As she walks away, Celia reaches out, grabs Nancy's hair from behind and gives it a hard tug before letting go]

Nancy Botwin:
[turns around totally shocked, yells] What the f*** are you doing??

Celia Hodes:
[grabbing Nancy's hair again with a desparate look on her face] Be my friend!

[the two begin to twirl in a circle, Celia pulling Nancy's hair while Nancy grabs Celia's arm trying to make her let go]

Nancy Botwin:
Oww!! Let go of my f***ing hair...

Celia Hodes:
Be my friend!!!

Nancy Botwin:
[nearly frantic] Let go of my f***ing hairrrr!

Celia Hodes:
[just as frantic] Be my Goddamned motherf***ing friendddd!!!!!

Nancy Botwin:
Owwww!!![when Celia finally lets go, Nancy quickly gets to the front door] Your insane!

Celia Hodes:
[lowering her voice as she repeats] Selfish! Selfish! Selfish!

[the two women glare at each other in mutual shock for a moment, then Nancy walks out]

Pam:
[in the cheeriest voice imaginable] You two are just like sisters!
