Ang unang 200 linya.
This is the formation zone
for tropical storm Hazel. Now, we've got two models.
The American model has Hazel turning north,
over Mobile and the Florida Panhandle
and into Georgia.
The European model
has her slowing down, heading northwest,
gaining strength and becoming a potential hurricane.
This could become a major storm and hit land again anywhere
from Gulfport to New Orleans.
Hazel is moving at approximately
ten miles per hour
and should make landfall late tonight
or early tomorrow morning.
As Hazel makes landfall, she's gonna become
a tropical storm once again and bring plenty of rain
and high winds to wherever she hits.
Now, folks, I feel that Hazel is most likely to head towards
our friends in Louisiana.
Gorgeous.
What's in there?
- In that? - Yeah.
- Nothing. - Define nothing.
Soft shells.
- I thought the molt was over. - It was. And then it wasn't.
But those are for Fryman's.
What, so they can be drowned in garlic and black pepper?
You can't even taste them!
They offered 55 a dozen.
I'll give you 60.
Tucker gonna be okay with that?
Are you kidding? He'll be thrilled.
Soft-shells this late?
If anyone asks, you didn't get those from me.
Get what?
- Careful out there this weekend. - Thanks.
Thank you.
Seventeen? Seventeen right here.
Hi, this is Miranda Wells again.
I got an overdraft fee of $80 on the third.
But if the check had gone through like it was supposed to,
everything would've been fine.
So, that fee needs to be removed,
refunded, rescinded or whatever.
Please call back me today, if possible.
Thank you.
- Miranda, it's 12:13. - So?
So you told me to remind you about
a dentist appointment at noon. I forgot.
- Hey! - Hey.
Up five percent from last year.
- Yeah? - Yeah.
People are spending again, thank God.
- Where are you off to? - Uh, a dentist appointment.
Oh, listen, um,
- about dinner. - Oh, I know. With the storm.
- It's okay. - Yeah.
The weather guy says it's gonna miss us, but...
- You can never be too careful. - So you think I should?
What? Board up? Absolutely.
Look, no matter how bad things are,
- they can always get worse. - Oh.
And here I actually got us in to Shaya.
Oh, babe. It's a school night.
Thank you.
We're fine.
Oh! And, um...
I bought soft-shells from Sang,
who was going to sell them to Fryman's,
which I said was bogus, because their chef sucks,
which is why I paid 60 a dozen.
Soft shells this late in the season?
- Right? - That's my girl.
Bye.
- Thank you. - Thank you.
Hi. Sorry. Can I help you?
Well, I hope so.
I made a reservation on Hotel Tonight.
I've got a cousin in Nashville.
Oh, is that so?
Is this your first time staying with us?
Uh, first time in New Orleans.
What are you studying?
How to get out from behind this desk.
Well, anything is possible if you really want it.
Yeah, I guess.
Any chance you have a room with a view?
No, sorry.
All of the rooms overlooking the Quarter are fully booked.
No problem. I'll take whatever I can get.
Room 1 checked out early, on account of the storm.
Okay, that's so weird.
Room 1 has a view all the way to the river.
Must be my lucky day.
It's not often I get a grown up in here
with a cavity this bad.
What do you do, gargle with sugar?
Uh...
- Saltwater taffy. - Yep, that would do it.
Devon says I need a root canal.
Well, I think he just misses your company.
Mm, how about a week from Monday at 9:00?
Donna, you're not helping. Don't you have anything, like...
next June?
Who's your provider again?
I opted out.
Um, why? How much is it out of pocket?
That's 1,700 for a front, 2,300 for a back.
- Is it a front or a back? - Uh, back.
Well, I'm sure Tucker wouldn't mind plunking down
that platinum card of his.
That may be so, but things are...
complicated enough what with him being my boss and all.
Look, just stay safe tonight. Okay? I hear Hazel's gonna turn.
I bet she hangs a left and pounds us straight on.
Oh! Nice cast!
I, uh... I'm looking for Miranda Wells.
You from the bank?
Can't say that I am. No.
She's at work right now.
You can leave it with me. I'm her son.
I kinda figured that.
Well, the thing is...
I'm afraid this comes with a little bit of an explanation.
Any idea what time she'll be home?
Usually around four.
That's a cool thing you've got there.
My dad made it for me, 'cause I wasn't getting my line
to where the big ones are hiding.
He was an inventor. Sort of.
Pretty good one, I bet.
Well, my mom says he never sold much,
but that's 'cause it wasn't his real job.
But he sure solved your casting problem, didn't he?
Fish don't seem too impressed.
- No school today? - I have a cold,
but my mom gave me purple Dimetapp, so it's okay.
Well, you chose a beautiful day to stay home.
Yeah. The storm's not supposed to hit us until tonight.
I checked. A couple times.
Thanks for the help.
Oh, and when you see her, don't tell her we spoke.
I'm not supposed to talk to strangers.
Your secret's safe with me.
There is a chance that Hazel
will become a hurricane before it makes landfall
somewhere between Pensacola and Morgan City, Louisiana.
Even if Hazel never develops into a hurricane,
she will be bringing high winds and tons of rain
- to the Gulf Coast. - Great.
Hurricane warnings are off the...
Hi.
- Miranda, it's Bobby. - I know. I have Caller ID,
and I can see your face, sort of.
Well, are you listening to the news?
About the storm? No. What?
They're only gonna get worse with climate change.
I blame cows.
- How is your roof? - My roof?
The leaks. Did you get 'em fixed?
Bobby, I can't afford a root canal,
let alone a new roof.
You need to sell that damn place
and move to higher ground.
- So you've said. - Oh, did I?
Ever since he died.
And it's as true today as it was then.
It is not safe.
Look, Bobby, um, I gotta run.
- I'll call you later? - Well, you never do.
You're always so busy.
It's busy with the kids. Love you.
Hey, gang. How was the day?
Awful.
Terrible.
Bessie, honey, what's wrong?
She told some kid she has a pony.
They called her a liar, which she is.
I said I wanted a pony.
Since when?
Since always!
I told you not to let her watch Black Stallion.
You didn't eat your lunch?
Nobody brown bags anymore.
Why can't I just buy food at school?
You can every once in a while, but it adds up.
- We've been over this. - So stupid.
Okay. Talk to me. What's going on? Hmm?
Kit Riley's having a party the same night as me.
They're gonna have freaking food trucks.
Wow.
I don't even want a birthday. I'm never gonna get
what I want anyway, so what's the point?
Okay. We can't afford a computer right now,
but it might be something for Christmas.
Right. We'll be lucky to have a tree.
You're not supposed to be on the phone while...
I wasn't gonna answer it, I just wanna see who it was.
I'm expecting a call from the bank.
It says Carol.
