You know anything about a girl named Krista Collins?

I think she might know something about that thing happened out in Truro.

JACKIE: You know what? I'm gonna leave a note.

- DELVICCARIO: What? - What the fuck?

Did you tell someone where I was?

My friend died. Fucking saw it, too.

But, Scotty, you can't tell anybody.

- Yes. - I am back, motherfuckers!

- And I fucking found her, man. - What?

JACKIE: I found Krista.

I went to rehab. I'm sober.

- Really? - How about dinner tomorrow?

Like a date?
