Thank you.

What are

you

doing?

Oh, Barb.

This party is, like, filled with so many perverts. Like, I'm sure I would sleep

with an old fart.

Like, dude, that's Gregory Carruthers.

Yeah, so?

So, like, he happens to be one of the richest men in California?

Like, my daddy knows him.

Oh, I just feel so sorry for these guys. Like, I'm sure old and gray and flabby

beer bellies. Yeah, like, you're sick, dude.

Go on, do it.

Why should I?

Uh-uh-uh.

Not until you do what I say.

Jogged ten miles today.

No socks.

Bitch.

Sorry. Can you get my legs down?

Below the knee.

You like power?

Must run in the family.

Mr. Decker, what can I do for you?

Hello, Jonathan.

Warren, I was just taking a break from the party. I hope you don't mind me

coming into the office.

No, it's quite all right.

I need to rest myself.

Vultures, everyone.

So, how about that deep-sea fishing trip?

You know, my placement combo is still available. That's enough, Paul.

I think the congressman and I should be getting back to the party.

It isn't prudent campaigning to spend all your time with one lobbyist. You're

right, Warren.

As usual.

Just give me one moment to collect my thoughts.

Yes, sir.

Good to see you as always, Jonathan.

Yes, of course.

What's your name, honey?

Gina.

I'm Gregory Crothers.

Some big rich dude.

Rich and generous.

Especially the beautiful girls.

I want you to do something for me in return.

Yeah, like what?

I want you to take off your dress.

Yeah, right. You're kidding.

Let me, sweetheart.

You can look.

Just can't touch.

Ta-da!

Show's over.

Wait, wait.

Let's do this first.

Okay.

Stop.

I gotta go find my friend.

We should do this again sometime.

Hey, Hef. Hey, Tiff.

I don't know what you see in that guy. He's a total creep.

Like, what's the deal with Carruthers?

Oh, it turns out we have a mutual friend.

Oh, hi.

I'm Mel Jonas.

My friends call me Jonas.

I figure you're the kind of girl who likes to party.

Um, you want a rock and roll?

Hello, Tiffany?

Oh, I...

I see you've met. Good evening.

It's Jonas, right?

Yes, sir.

Mel Jonas.

I'm on the educational advisement board.

Of course.

Tiffany is my daughter, Mr. Jonas.

And a beautiful young lady that she is.

She is in high school, Mr. Jonas.

And it is time for her to get home.

Mr. Jonas was going to teach me to tango.

You were? I was.

propositioning the congressman's daughter.

I wonder what the penalty is for that.

I don't want to find out.

How can I make this up to you?

I think I'd like a sports car.

Excuse me, Mr. Jonas. Tiffany, I think it's time to go.

Dad? Listen, Tiffany, how do you think this looks, you doing that tango thing

with one of my advisors after midnight?

It was completely inappropriate.

At best, I am in the middle of a campaign.

You need to behave like a lady.

A lady?

Whatever. Good night, Congressman.

Let's go.

I got something for you.

Dear Tiffany, I am very sorry about the misunderstanding last night.

I hope you enjoy this little token of friendship.

Feel free to call on me at any time.

Drive safely.

Signed, Jonas.

Ride on, Piv.

Would you port this gig or something?

No. Next time, maybe we should ask for, like, a bigger car.

Like, can I borrow the car or what, too?

Like, give it a rest, will you, Tina?

I know. Like, why don't we all just get our own car?

Councilman Harold K.? No way.

What are you doing? Are you, like, snipping glue?

Oh, come on. Like, I can have this dirty bird in a bad situation in, like, five

minutes. Are you in?

No way. Like, old men are so gross.

One time... I had to kiss my grandfather, and I kind of felt his

tongue, and it felt like this dirty little worm after it rained. I was like,

oh, Gina, just, like, save it for your cookie analyst.

So how about you, Tiff? Like, you want to help me get some wheel?

There is that.

Okay.

Skipping AP physics rules.

Yeah, like the second law of thermodynamics sucks.

You and Heather are like whacked. It is just not worth it to sleep with some

gross old man for a car.

I didn't screw anybody.

I didn't even kiss Jonas.

And I'm holding his political future in my hands.

It's worth a lot to these guys.

If you think about it, Gina, we could clean up.

I don't know. I think those old perverts are on some kind of creepy power trip

going after high school girls.

Well, maybe they need to be taught a lesson.

They deserve it.

Hey,

you guys, we're going to be here any minute.

Hey, it's only temporary.

Your dad is, like, totally real for letting us use his place.

What are they caring for? Like, he's out of town for three months.

What did I wear?

I don't know. Like, where are all my clothes?

I put them in the freezer.

What do you think?

Scandalous.

You guys get out of here.

You're gonna, like, you know... What?

You're gonna... No, what?

Go all the way.

Oh, no, that's so fucking gross. I'm just gonna give this guy a fucking hard

-on, ask him where his wife is, then I'm gonna ask him for a brand-new hot rod.

What's that for?

Charts.

Want to drop in on Decker?

Right now? Isn't he at work?

Yep. Best time to do it. He gets this panicked look on his face every time I

show up there. It's great.

You know, I think you actually like this feedback.

Do you mind waiting in the car?

Don't worry about me.

You know, you should be careful with that stuff.

Oh, I am. I haven't spilled the grain.

That isn't what I meant.

Hey, we all have our vices.

I'll be right back.

Hey, guys.

What's wrong with her?

Something with Decker.

I, like, caught him with that bimbo from the party.

Forget about Decker. He's a dog.

Woof. Decker's such a loser.

Like, if he wants some slut over me, then that's, like, his prerogative.

She's not even hot, you know?

Like, what was she wearing?

Something from, like, 95.

Ninety-five?

Like, that is so gross.

You could always invite him over for a little hanky-panky.

Yeah, Tiff, hit him where it hurts.

I don't know.

Like, what's not to know?

Watch this.

When Councilman Harold Tagg gets this tape in the mail tomorrow, the world

will be like mine for the asking.

I brought you something.

Oh, pity. I left it here.

I want you to put this on.

another hit or crack.

What the hell?

Hey!

Get them clothes off before Big Daddy can't get himself herniated.

Hello, dear.

Hi, honey. I'm going to the Bible meeting. It's on foreign occasion

tonight.

Remind them to vote.

You don't look so good.

Have you been watching that naughty Telemundo again?

No, no, dear.

Goodbye, dear.

But I'll be home about 5.30.

I'll be right back.

Tiffany, like, what are you going to tell your parents?

I've been parking down at the bottom of the street. I'll just tell them I'm

taking the bus. How about you? My father's in Taigon or somewhere in Asia.

And my mom's on a fat farm in Vermont.

I would ask for money.

What's this?

Is Gina brewing up an idea in her kettle?

So, I'm going to bring Deckard to the apartment tonight around 8-ish.

Could you guys make sure that it's totally set up? Are you sure you want to

go through this Decker thing?

I mean, you already have a brand new car.

We should just give it a rest.

It's not about the goddamn car.

It's about the simple fact that Decker thinks he can just walk all over me.

Hi, Tiffany.

Hi.

Do you feel like giving me that ride?

Hop in.

Are you going to go to college?

Yeah, my parents, I think, would kill me if I didn't.

They want me to study politics like my dad.

That sounds pretty boring.

Tell me about it. All my life, I've been surrounded by politics and politicians.

Sometimes I just wish I could just pack my bags and, like, move to Australia or

something. Hang out in a village somewhere.

You know, just fishing and walking around the outback.

Feeling with nature, you know?

Wow.

That sounds really cool.

Oh, look at my house coming up. It's that little one right there.

Would you like to go roller skating with me tonight?

I can't.

Not tonight.

Oh.

I just thought... I don't know what I thought.

Thanks for taking me on a ride.

You're welcome.

I'll see you around.

Mr. Decker's office?

Mr. Decker, please.

Hi, Paul.

I haven't heard from you in a while. Are you still upset with me?

No. But I can't help feeling that things aren't... quite the thing anymore.

Let me make it up to you. Tonight.

I'll pick you up at the office at, say, 7.30?

Sounds good.

I'll, uh, be waiting.

Idiot.

Asshole.

Whose apartment's this?

It's mine.

Who pays for it?

Same guy that bought you the hot rod?

Hmm. Aren't we curious all of a sudden?

Don't play games with me, Tiffany.

But you know I like games.

What's the problem?

No problem.

I just thought we might want to have a glass of champagne first.

Sure, sounds good.

Just let me use the bathroom first.

All right, you go do that. I'll get the champagne started.

Where's it at?

Right back.

What about the champagne fuck the champagne

I have to use the ladies room

I'll

be right here

Had to run urgent business appointments.

The money is for the champagne. There's a little extra just for you so you can

buy something nice.

Thanks, Dickie.

Urgent business?

I'll show you fucking urgent business.

Like, Tiff, what happened to the tape?

I don't know. I swear I did, like, everything right.

Oh, man, you better not have broken my camera.

I barely even touched the thing.

You know you're gonna have to fuck him again.

Forget it. It's not even worth it.

A, he's so gross. B, I hate him. And C, he's not even a good lay.

It's over.

Let's just call it quits, okay?

Deal? Deal.

Deal.

Come in.

What's she doing here?

Urgent business.

What kind of urgent business?

The movie business.

Hey, Tiffy.

Nice technique.

Oh, what were your intentions, Tiffany?

I was going to give it to you as a gift.

I suppose Councilman K was going to be getting a gift as well.

I am very impressed. How about you, Bianca? She has a brilliant career ahead

of her.

I have no interest in becoming a professional whore.

Oh, no offense.

None taken.

Well, you weren't exactly behaving like an amateur.

I checked out the registration on your car. Seems it was purchased one week ago

by a male Jonas of your father's educational advisement board.

What do you want?

I know the types of people you're dealing with.

Tapes like these can carry an incredible amount of leverage, power, money.

I'm not interested.

You don't get it.

What you've done is illegal.

It could ruin your life and your father's career.

It would only take one call to destroy everything.

You would do that?

Of course.

Fuck you, Decker.

Well, now, that's no way to talk to your new partner.

Miss Bianca here has agreed to help us out.

Come here, my little lovely.

I'll give you the names and numbers.

You set up the appointments.

I'll take care of the rest.

And we will all make out very nicely.

My friends won't go along with this.

Don't be so sure.

Money talks, Tiffany.

You wanted to feel real power.

Well... Here it is.

Like it?

Like it?

Yeah.

Wait, what have you got on?

You should run and take it off.

How old are you, young girl?

Eighteen.

Gee, I'd like to see your... I'd like to see your... Oh, I'd like to see

your... Out.

You're not going to... You're not going to... Listen,

young man.

I don't get any effect on me.

Money.

could be question to someone.

One more setup.

Should be able to collect my next money on the last one.

You girls will get your money and I'll get, well, I'll get everything else.

Why do we need one more? We've got four tapes. That's money already in the bank.

Let's just stop before it goes too far and we get caught.

We need Gregory Carruthers.

Hmm, but who will it be?

The other girls may have gotten too high of a profile.

Politicians do like to talk about scandal just behind locked doors.

Somebody he trusts.

I got it.

Gina.

Leave her out of this. She's got enough problems.

What? Oasis break up again?

We all got troubles, hot pants.

Besides, Carruthers likes her.

They have this mutual friend who, Gina, by the way, owes quite a tidy sum of

money to.

I'm sure we can work something out.

Listen,

Tiff, just drop it.

I need some money.

I want to pay off some of my debts.

I think I'm going to go into one of those rehab programs.

Really? Yeah, I just said it this morning.

That's great. I'm so proud of you.

You promised you're not going to do coke with him. I promise. No coke.

There you go.

Come on, I thought you liked the party.

I was just admiring the quantity.

There's plenty more where that came from.

I'll help you.

Would you like some champagne to wash that down?

Sure.

You know, I've been thinking of you. You have?

A lot.

I thought about you, too.

Here's to us.

Cheers.

How old are you?

I'm 18.

You're 18? Yeah.

I wouldn't want to get in any trouble.

Would you

like

to play a game?

Yeah. Um, do you have operation?

Yeah.

Something like that, yeah.

Come on.

Over here.

Oh.

It's a war.

What are you doing?

Lay a little spice to the mix.

Wait. No, no, no. You're going to like it.

You're going to like it.

It'll be fine.

She wasn't in first period.

Or like math.

Maybe she just, like, stayed at that apartment last night.

I don't think so.

Oh, great.

Like, geek alert. Here comes Johnny Testicles.

Oh, my God. I can't even deal with him right now. I have to find Gina.

Oh, just, like, chill, Tiff. Take a pill.

She probably just crashed down somewhere last night.

I hope so.

What up, Holmes?

I was followed.

The mall patrol, perhaps.

You do have an active imagination, dear girl.

I'm not imagining the fact that Gina is missing.

That would explain why she didn't show last night.

What do you mean she didn't show?

What about Carruthers?

No, one of my associates told me that he'd left the country.

He must have called it off.

Hmm.

Is it like Gina to just disappear like this?

Well, when you do find her, do tell her that she's gotten herself into a

heap of trouble.

It's over.

Money comes on Monday.

Call me to arrange an appointment.

What about me and Heather? What about our safety?

Well, you're a big, powerful woman.

Take care of yourself

Hello

crazy? You scared the shit out of me.

Something's happened to Gina.

How do you know?

There's a spot of blood on the floor.

Look. Right here.

That's not blood. It's ketchup.

I think I just spilled it on the floor last week and forgot to clean it up. But

I was followed.

First they parked on the street, and then they parked...

Right outside.

I swear I was being followed. They took every turn I took.

Well, then that would make sense if they're going to the same place, right?

The tape.

The tape was blank.

What did Decker say?

He said that Carruthers canceled.

Oh, well, then that explains it. I mean, Gina's probably hiding out somewhere

getting wasted with that gross fucking pusher of hers.

But she told me she was quitting.

You believed her?

No.

Do you mind if I stay the night tonight?

Of course not.

Thanks.

Heather?

Heather!

Oh, my God.

Hello, can I help you?

I'm sorry, Mr. Decker's not taking appointments today.

Hi, Tiffy.

Mr. Decker.

Excuse me.

I thought we agreed on money for the exchange.

Something changed since the last time we spoke?

Yeah. I, like, know something's happened to Gina.

The only person you should be worrying about is yourself.

Really? Is that supposed to be a threat?

It is not a threat. It is friendly advice from a friend.

If you'll excuse me.

I have an urgent business meeting in 20 minutes.

I suggest you forget about everything.

Go watch The Grind or something. Get yourself a Diet Soty pop. I don't care.

Just let this... blow over.

Out.

Mr. Decker, don't forget your appointment with Mr. Carruthers today.

Yes, thank you.

No, no.

No,

I don't go all the way. No, we just started.

No, I want you to stop. No.

Yes.

Stop. No. I don't go all the way. You're hurting me. Shut up.

Yeah. Yes.

Shut

up!

Gina? Gina?

Gina? Gina?

It's Tiffany. I don't know what to do.

Gina was killed by Carruthers. I have it all on tape.

I'm going to go home right now and try to find some help. Call me when you get

in. Bye.

We're going to pick up your little friend.

Just relax there, sunshine.

Oh, Tiffany.

Are you okay?

What's wrong?

I can't believe this.

How could you girls ever get involved in something like this?

If this ever gets out, your father will be ruined.

I have to tell him. You can't. He has a big speech in the morning. The entire

primary relies on the results of tomorrow's successful presentation.

But I... No, look.

I know some people. I'll talk to them.

I'll see if we can't take care of this thing quietly, without causing a big

public nuisance, at least until the election's over.

The election?

Is that all you guys think about?

Listen, Tiffany, your girlfriend is dead, and nothing's going to bring her

back.

Why drag your father down with her?

I promise you'll take care of it.

I promise.

Warren?

Let me keep this.

I'll do everything I can.

In the meantime, just lay low.

Be careful.

Warren, now!

We've got a problem.

Tiffany Holmes just brought this tape to me.

She's as slippery as her father.

Well, her attitude will just have to be corrected.

Now, hold on a minute here, Decker.

You said no one was going to get hurt. There's already one dead girl. That's

enough. I'm not going to hurt her.

I'm just going to contain her.

You can never be too cautious, Warren.

Good day, Warren.

Are you sitting in front of the TV?

Yes.

Good.

Tell one of those goons to turn it on.

Then press play on the VCR.

But only when I tell you to.

He says turn on the TV.

Now press play.

Now press play.

Tucker, I don't want to watch this right now.

Oh, you will.

Keep watching.

What are we going to do about it, Fomo?

Tiffany? Tiffany!

You still with me?

Yes.

Good. Listen close.

I have sent a copy of this tape to your father.

As a matter of fact, he's probably just finished watching it about now.

I'm going to be a very rich man after tonight.

And rich men can never be too careful.

This tape is my insurance policy that you keep your mouth shut.

It wasn't bad.

It wasn't very bad.

Of course, Congressman Holmes may decide to drop out of the race.

Schedule a press conference for 10.30 tomorrow morning.

Make sure everyone's there.

Sorry I can't chat longer, Tiff, but I have a pressing appointment with our

friend Carruthers.

All I ask is that you be a good little girl, sit tight, and

let the adults have it.

Decker's meeting Carruthers at the furniture warehouse downtown. I saw a

note when I was searching his desk. Are you going to be all right?

Hello, Gregory.

Decker?

Stay right here, okay? I'm gonna go find Decker.

Shit, it's that fucking night watchman. Keep him occupied.

Oh, if I'm not back in ten minutes, call my father.

Well, let's stop fucking around here, Decker.

Where's the goddamn tape?

Slow down, big boy.

Things have gotten a little complicated.

We got a lot of loose ends to worry about.

I just can't go.

Making deals without considering every option

Maybe

I should have a look at your engine

I lived up to my end of the deal.

Don't be a baby, Greg.

Now put the gun down and play nice.

Attaboy.

Did you hear that?

Was that a gun?

Holy shit!

You stay right there! Don't move!

Get your hand off my money.

Don't move.

I don't want to have to kill you.

Then again, maybe I do.

Why don't you step back, Decker?

Warren! Thank God!

What are you thanking God for him for?

What are you talking about?

Oh, your little boy scout here has been in on this from the start.

Who do you think disposed of Gina's body? And cleaned up the apartment. And

did a damn shitty job of it, too.

Why?

What, are you stupid?

Jesus. Money, you dumb broad.

Money.

I swear I didn't know about your father.

Why didn't you tell me about the setup with Holmes?

Freeze!

Fuck!

Because you never asked, idiot.

And now it's become clear you can't be trusted.

Tiffany, look out behind you.

Drop your gun, Holmes.

Drop yours, Decker.

Don't fuck with me. I'm a desperate man, Governor. And I got no problem with

killing your little girl right here.

Let her go. This doesn't concern her.

How well do you know your daughter, Governor?

Well enough.

I just put down your weapon and I'll try to help you.

You let me finish the race.

When I'm Governor, I'll grant you a pardon.

She's a whore, Mr. Holmes.

Whole thing was her idea.

What do you think of that?

I don't believe you.

Really?

Why don't you ask her?

What does he mean, Tiffany?

Are you involved with this?

Forget it, Holmes.

Drop your gun, turn around, and go home.

I'll call you tomorrow after the press conference, and I'll let her go.

Very good governor.

You've made a wise decision

You

fuck

with the wrong guy idiot You're next

Bobo

Tiffany, no!

Five, four, three, two, and... We are standing here in front of the home of

Congressman Jonathan Holmes.

Last night, a raging fire at the luxury living storage facility claimed the

lives of three major figures in the political world, as well as the life of

a local man working as a night watchman. In just one minute...

The People's Choice in the Closing Race for Governor will be joining us live at

CNH News for an exclusive interview to comment on the terrible tragedy.

Now I want you to go out there and do your best today.

Sugar, try and smile for Mommy.

Just one little smile.

Dear, I think Tiffany can sit this one out.

This is your most important appearance.

All of us need to be there to show the voters our support for those grieving

families.

She should be having fun, not listening to this political nonsense.

Since when was politics considered nonsense?

Ann, she's just a kid.

The voters can do without seeing Tiffany today.

If that's okay with you.

Tiffany?

All right, let's go.

Good morning.

So how do you really feel about what happened at the luxury living storage

facility last night?

Very bad.

Lives were lost.

I will personally lead a full investigation.

I heard about the bad news.

I've got your favorite.

Did you hear about the fire?

Yeah.

I bet your dad's going to make a million speeches about that one.

Yeah.

Would you like to...

Toss the pigskin a little bit?

No, no, no. I would love to.

Really?

Really.
