OKAY, SO I
WAS MISERABLE.

AND I STAYED MISERABLE
FOR ABOUT A YEAR.

AND THEN I
DECIDED THAT I WAS

BORED WITH
BEING MISERABLE.

I MEAN,
AFTER A WHILE

HOW MUCH CAN YOU
ENJOY YOUR OWN MISERY?

IT'S TIME
TO STOP.

THE ONLY WAY I KNEW
TO GET OUT OF IT

WAS TO LEAVE
WHERE I WAS FROM,

LEAVE THE HOUSE I
WAS MISERABLE IN,

STOP LOOKING AT
MY MISERABLE MIRROR

IN MY MISERABLE BATHROOM
IN MY MISERABLE HOUSE,

GET ON A PLANE AND
FLY TO NEW YORK CITY,

CHANGE MY LIFE, CHANGE
MY PLACE, GO BACK TO THE

PLACE I WAS FROM BEFORE
ALL MY MISERY STARTED,

START ANEW,
START A NEW LIFE.

AND I DID.

NEW YEAR'S EVE
I GOT ON A PLANE,

THE RED-EYE FROM LOS
ANGELES TO NEW YORK.

I ARRIVED EARLY IN
THE MORNING, EXHAUSTED.

* IT'S A MOST
UNUSUAL DAY *

* FEEL LIKE THROWING
MY WORRIES AWAY *

* AS AN OLD NATIVE-BORN
CALIFORNIAN WOULD SAY *

* IT'S A MOST
UNUSUAL DAY *

* OH, THIS WEATHER'S
AMAZING THEY SAY *

* THERE'S A MOST
UNUSUAL SKY *

* NOT A SIGN OF A
CLOUD PASSING BY *

* AND IF I
WANT TO SING *

* THROW MY
HEART IN THE RING *

* IT'S A MOST
UNUSUAL DAY *

* THERE ARE PEOPLE
MEETING PEOPLE *

* THERE IS
SUNSHINE EVERYWHERE *

* THERE ARE PEOPLE
GREETING PEOPLE *

* AND A FEELING OF
SPRING IN THE AIR *

* IT'S A MOST
UNUSUAL TIME *

* I KEEP FEELING MY
TEMPERATURE CLIMB *

* IF MY HEART WON'T
BEHAVE IN THE USUAL WAY *

* WELL, THERE'S ONLY
ONE THING TO SAY *

* IT'S A MOST UNUSUAL,
MOST UNUSUAL *

* MOST
UNUSUAL DAY. *

OH, JESUS.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

OKAY.

WHO IS IT?

WHO IS IT?

YEAH?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING
IN MY APARTMENT?

I LIVE HERE.

3C?

YEAH.

I'M MOVING IN.

OH, SORRY. WE'RE
MOVING OUT TOMORROW.

I'VE GOT THE
PLACE FOR THE FIRST.

NO, NO, WE'RE HERE
THROUGH THE FIRST.

I'VE GOT THIS PLACE
STARTING THE FIRST.

NO, NO, WE HAVE IT
THROUGH THE FIRST-

I HAVE IT ON
THE FIRST.

WE HAVE IT
THROUGH THE FIRST.

I HAVE IT ON THE FIRST
- THIS IS THE FIRST.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

IS THERE SOME SUPER WE
CAN CHECK THIS WITH?

DON'T WAKE HIM UP AT THIS
HOUR, HE'S REAL SURLY.

JUST COME IN AND
WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT.

I DIDN'T SLEEP, I JUST
GOT ON THE RED-EYE

FROM LOS
ANGELES.

COME IN, WE'LL
HAVE SOME TEA.

IT'LL MAKE
YOU FEEL BETTER

AND WE'LL
FIGURE IT OUT.

DID MY
STUFF ARRIVE?

YEAH, THE
FURNITURE'S GREAT.

WHAT DO YOU
MEAN IT'S GREAT?

IT'S NICE, YOU
HAVE WONDERFUL TASTE.

COME ON, I'VE GOT GINGER
TEA, IT'LL FIX ANYTHING.

YOU OKAY?

YEAH.

THE KITCHEN'S HERE.

CAN I LEAVE
THIS SOMEWHERE?

JUST ANYWHERE
IS FINE.

MY GOD, IT'S
STARTED TO SNOW!

JUST SIT DOWN,
TAKE YOUR COAT OFF.

I THINK I SHOULD
FIND A PHONE.

TAKE YOUR
COAT OFF, RELAX.

I'LL MAKE YOU
SOME TEA.

GINGER TEA,
EVERYTHING WILL BE-

NO, NO, I
DON'T NEED THAT.

GINGER IS ONE
OF THREE THINGS

THAT'S REALLY
GOOD FOR YOU

- GINGER, GARLIC
AND ONIONS.

GINGER
TASTES GREAT.

I DON'T
LIKE GINGER.

IT'S GOOD FOR YOUR HEART
AND YOUR BLOODSTREAM

AND YOUR
IMMUNE SYSTEM.

I KEEP A POT ON
ALL WINTER LONG.

WHO ARE YOU?

I'M DREW, HI.

AND IF YOU DO THAT,
YOU DON'T GET SICK.

ARE YOU SICK?

I'M A LITTLE
SICK I THINK.

IT'S COLD IN NEW YORK, I
JUST GOT OFF THE PLANE.

I'LL MAKE TWO KINDS OF
TEA, YOU'LL TRY GINGER.

WHEN ARE YOU GUYS
GOING TO BE OUT?

TOMORROW.

WHO ARE YOU?

OH, MY GOD,
ANOTHER ONE.

WHY IS
EVERYBODY UP?

HOW MANY OF
YOU ARE THERE?

OH, MY GOD.

WE WERE UP UNTIL 5:30
TALKING ABOUT LIFE

AND WHAT WE'RE GOING
TO DO WITH OUR LIVES

WHEN WE GET
OUT OF HERE.

WHEN I DON'T GET ENOUGH
SLEEP MY BODY ACHES

AND I DON'T
FUNCTION VERY WELL.

NOT THAT I FUNCTION SO
WELL WHEN I'M NOT TIRED.

I DON'T FEEL
TOO GOOD EITHER.

YOU KNOW WHAT
YOU SHOULD DO?

YOU TAKE A LEMON AND
PEEL THE YELLOW PART

OFF THE LEMON,
LEAVE THE WHITE,

YOU PUT IT IN QUARTERS
IN A VERY HOT BATH

AND THEN YOU
GET IN THE BATH

AND YOU DRINK IT
WHILE YOU'RE IN THERE.

THIS IS ALL VERY NICE,
I HAVE TO GO TO SLEEP.

I'M HUNGRY.

WHY DON'T
YOU EAT?

IT'S NOT
ABOUT FOOD.

WHERE'S A PHONE?
HELLO?

SORRY.

I WANT TO CALL A HOTEL
AND GET A RESERVATION

AND GO TO BED. I'VE
GOT TO GO TO SLEEP.

WILL YOU BE
OUT TOMORROW?

WHAT IS THIS STUFF
DOING HERE STILL?

WE DIDN'T KNOW
WHAT TO DO WITH IT.

I CAN'T TAKE
IT WITH ME

AND NEITHER
CAN THE GIRLS.

I DON'T
WANT IT.

WHAT AM I GOING
TO DO WITH IT?

IT'S REALLY
PERFECT IN THIS ROOM.

YOU MIGHT
WANT TO KEEP IT.

YOU MIGHT LIKE IT
IN HERE, IT WORKS.

I'M MOVING IN WITH A
FAMILY SO I REALLY

CAN'T TAKE ANYTHING
AND ANNIE'S PLACE

IS GOING TO BE
REALLY SMALL.

WHAT ABOUT THE OTHER
ONE, THE THIRD GIRL?

LUCY'S MOVING TO
LA, IT'S KIND OF FAR

TO DRIVE ANYTHING
LIKE THIS.

SO IF YOU WANT
ANYTHING HERE

LET ME KNOW
AND WE'LL TALK.

THE PHONE'S
RIGHT THERE.

YOU CAN MAKE ANY
CALLS YOU WANT.

MY COUCH...
THAT'S MY CHAIR.

YEAH, IT'S NICE.
YOU GOT ANY KIDS?

KIDS? NO.

I'M GOING TO PUT
SOME CLOTHES ON.

I'LL BE BACK
IN A BIT.

SNOW.

IT'S A
GOOD OMEN.

IT MIGHT BE MY CUE TO
GO TO WARMER WEATHER.

NO.

YEAH, MANHATTAN
INFORMATION, PLEASE.

I'M GOING TO GIVE
UP EVERYTHING

THAT'S BAD FOR
ME THIS YEAR.

I'M GOING TO GIVE UP
CAFFEINE, ALCOHOL, SUGAR.

I ALREADY GAVE UP GRASS
LAST YEAR SO I DON'T HAVE

TO GIVE UP THE GRASS
THIS YEAR, THANK GOD.

I'M GOING TO
GIVE UP MEN.

WHAT YOU'RE GIVING UP-
YOU'RE GIVING ME UP.

I'M NOT
GIVING YOU UP.

I'M GIVING
NEW YORK UP.

AND I'M
GIVING UP MEN.

I'M GOING TO LOS ANGELES
AND I'M NOT GOING TO

LET ONE MORE CREEPY
ASSHOLE INTO MY LIFE.

I'M GOING TO GIVE
UP DIET CANDIES.

RESERVATIONS
PLEASE.

YOU DON'T
HAVE ANYTHING?

YOU DON'T HAVE TO
GO TO LOS ANGELES

TO GIVE MEN UP, YOU
CAN GIVE MEN UP HERE.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO CHANGE
A CITY TO GIVE UP A MAN.

I CAN'T GIVE THIS
MAN UP IN NEW YORK.

THAT'S THE MOST
RIDICULOUS THING

I'VE EVER HEARD.

IT'S NOT, ANNIE. I'VE
TRIED THIS ALREADY.

RESERVATIONS
PLEASE.

DO YOU HAVE ANY ROOMS
FOR TONIGHT, PLEASE?

NOT TONIGHT?

YOU DON'T
HAVE TO GO AWAY.

I HAVE TO GO.

NO, YOU DON'T.

IT'S SOMETHING
THAT YOU WANT TO DO.

SO MAYBE YOU
SHOULD COME WITH ME.

OH, VERY FUNNY.

I REALLY DON'T
WANT TO DO THIS.

I'M JUST COMPLETELY
TERRIFIED ABOUT IT.

IT'S GOING TO
BE OKAY, ANNIE.

I KNOW IT'S GOING
TO BE OKAY, I MEAN

I ABSOLUTELY KNOW
THIS IS GOING TO BE FINE

AND THIS IS A GOOD IDEA,
I JUST HATE CHANGE.

I HATE ANY
KIND OF CHANGE.

RESERVATIONS
PLEASE.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN
THEY'RE CLOSED?

WHO DO I SPEAK TO
ABOUT RESERVATIONS THEN?

I DON'T WANT A
TOLL FREE NUMBER.

THERE'S
NO HOTELS.

(PHONE RINGING)

HELLO?

HI MOM. NO, I'M
OUT OF BREATH

'CAUSE I RAN
FROM THE KITCHEN.

WHAT?
YES, I KNOW.

SO THE NEW TENANT CAN PUT
A PHONE IN THE KITCHEN.

I'M SO GLAD THIS
WHOLE PERIOD IS OVER.

WHAT
WHOLE PERIOD?

THIS WHOLE "IT",
THIS WHOLE PERIOD,

THIS LAST TWO MONTHS
FROM NEW YEAR'S,

CHRISTMAS,
THANKSGIVING -

A WEEK BEFORE THANKSGIVING
IS WHEN IT ALL STARTS.

I'M UP BECAUSE I'VE GOT
100 THINGS TO DO AND-

IT'S EARLY, YES,
WELL, THIS GUY IS HERE.

NO, I WOULD
STILL BE SLEEPING.

LUCY!

YES, MOM.
YES, MOM.

I WILL, I
WILL, I WILL.

YES, I WILL
REMEMBER EVERYTHING.

I'VE GOT A
PACKING LIST.

YES, LIKE A VERY
GOOD GIRL, I DO.

IT DOESN'T HELP THAT
I START EATING SUGAR

AROUND THANKSGIVING AND
THEN I USUALLY EAT SUGAR

FROM THANKSGIVING ALL
THE WAY TO NEW YEARS EVE

SO IT'S A BIOLOGICAL
DEPRESSION AS WELL AS

A PSYCHOLOGICAL
DEPRESSION

AND IT LASTS
UNTIL JANUARY 2ND.

HOLD ON
A SECOND.

THE MAYFLOWER
HOTEL, PLEASE.

LUCY!

YEAH.

YOU DON'T HAVE
ANYTHING AT ALL?

I CAN'T HEAR ANOTHER
ONE OF THESE THINGS.

NOW IT'S
JANUARY 1ST AND

I'M STARTING TO
COME OUT OF IT.

WELL, I'M
GLAD FOR YOU.

I JUST GOT HIM
TO THINK IT WAS

A SEMANTIC
MISUNDERSTANDING.

WHAT DID
YOU TELL HIM?

I THOUGHT WE WERE
HERE THROUGH THE FIRST.

IT SAID
"THROUGH THE FIRST"

AND MY UNDERSTANDING
IS THROUGH THE FIRST

BUT THEN HE SAID WE
WERE CUT OFF ON THE-

ANYWAY, IT
DOESN'T MATTER.

I FEEL SO STRONG,
I FEEL SO HOPEFUL.

I'M COMPLETELY DETERMINED
THAT I'M GOING TO DO

EVERYTHING THAT'S
GOOD FOR MYSELF.

I'M JUST LOOKING AT THIS
GUY I SHOT LAST WEEK.

HE WAS FLIRTING
WITH ME A LOT.

I MEAN, HE MIGHT BE
VOLUNTEER MATERIAL.

OH, STOP.

I'M JUST LOOKING!

LOOK AT THE
GENETICS, YOU KNOW.

THEY'D BE
BEAUTIFUL KIDS, THOUGH.

HE'S AN ACTOR.

TRUST ME, YOU
DON'T WANT THAT.

I'M NOT GOING TO HAVE
TO LIVE WITH HIM,

I'M TALKING ABOUT
A DONOR HERE.

THIS WOULD BE A
BEAUTIFUL COMBINATION.

YOU CAN STAY HERE
WITH US, CAN'T YOU?

WHERE CAN I
STAY WITH YOU?

IT'S BIG, IT'S
JUST FOR ANOTHER DAY.

YOU'RE
SICK ANYWAY,

YOU CAN'T BE WORRIED
ABOUT THESE THINGS.

YEAH, I'M TRYING TO
THINK OF ANOTHER HOTEL.

WE POLISHED OFF A
LOT OF CHAMPAGNE.

(LAUGHING)

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT TO DO.

I CAN'T FIND
A HOTEL.

THEY'RE ALL BOOKED
BECAUSE IT'S NEW YEAR'S.

STAY, THIS
PLACE IS HUGE.

JUST STAY, WE'RE GOING
TO BE GONE TOMORROW.

THANK YOU, BUT
WHERE WOULD I SLEEP?

YOU CAN SLEEP
ANYWHERE.

I'LL SLEEP ON THIS
COUCH, I'M GOING TO BE

PACKED AND OUT OF THAT
ROOM - SOON I HOPE.

WHAT DO YOU DO,
WHAT DO YOU GIRLS DO?

I WORK IN AN
ART GALLERY.

PUBLIC
RELATIONS.

YOU DO PUBLIC
RELATIONS?

WELL, I HAVE DINNER
WITH THE ARTISTS -

DINNERS
AND DRINKS.

HOW ABOUT YOU?

I'M A
PHOTOGRAPHER.

I'M HAVING A BABY.
THIS TIME NEXT YEAR

I WILL HAVE A
CHILD IN MY ARMS.

(LAUGHING)

WHO'S THE
LUCKY GUY?

I DON'T
KNOW YET.

I WILL FIND SOMETHING
GENETICALLY PERFECT,

OR CLOSE
TO PERFECT...

SOMETHING
GENETICALLY SUITABLE

AND GET
KNOCKED UP.

I'M GOING TO FIND A MAN
IN THE NEXT THREE MONTHS

AND HAVE A BABY.

SHE'LL DO IT.

WHAT DO YOU DO?

UH, RIGHT NOW I DO
VOICES FOR CARTOONS.

VOICES FOR
CARTOONS?

I DO ALL THE FEMALE
CHARACTER VOICES FOR SOME

CARTOONS AND, HEY, I
DO SOME MALE ONES TOO;

IT DEPENDS WHAT
THE JOB CALLS FOR,

YOU KNOW
WHAT I MEAN?

WHAT DO
YOU DO?

I'D LIKE TO GO TO THE
BATHROOM IF I COULD.

I WILL SEE
YOU LATER.

(LAUGHING)

OH, GOD.

WHO IS
THIS GUY?

HE'S SO WEIRD.

I THINK I'M GOING
TO GIVE UP MY ROOM

BECAUSE HE LOOKS
LIKE HE'S IN A PANIC.

YEAH, HE'S
PANICKED.

NO MORE PANICKED
THAN ME, BUT PANICKED.

OH, HONEY.

I'M NOT
PANICKED REALLY.

I HAVE TO PACK.

YEAH.

NO!

YOU WANNA HELP?

NO.

PLEASE?

NO.

THERE'S SO MUCH
STUFF IN THAT ROOM.

(PHONE RINGING)

MOM, IT'S FINE.
I'M GONNA BE FINE.

WE DISCUSSED THIS 40
TIMES NOW, COME ON!

WHAT?

I JUST FEEL
REALLY ABANDONED.

OH, DON'T FEEL
ABANDONED, HONEY.

GOODBYE, OKAY?
OKAY, GOODBYE.

WE DON'T-
OKAY, I WILL.

GOODBYE,
GOODBYE, GOODBYE.

I JUST FEEL
REALLY ABANDONED.

DON'T START.

AND I FEEL
COMPLETELY BETRAYED.

GOODBYE, OKAY?
GOODBYE!

YES. (KISS) GOODBYE.

YES, I LOVE YOU,
GOODBYE.

YOU MAKE CONNECTIONS
WITH FRIENDS AND YOU

LIVE TOGETHER FOR FOUR
YEARS AND THEN IT'S OVER.

RELATIONSHIPS
CHANGE.

HI.

WHAT DID YOU
DECIDE TO DO?

ABOUT WHAT?

ABOUT WHERE YOU'RE
GOING TO SLEEP?

I'LL SLEEP
RIGHT HERE.

THAT'S OKAY.

NO, I'LL SLEEP ON
THE COUCH OUT THERE.

I'LL SLEEP ON THE COUCH,
IT'S NOT A PROBLEM.

NO, I DON'T WANT TO MAKE
YOU SLEEP ON THE COUCH.

WHAT ARE
YOU WATCHING?

IT'S A TAPE OF ME
SWIMMING WITH DOLPHINS.

YOU SWIMMING
WITH DOLPHINS?

YEAH, I WENT TO THIS
GREAT PLACE IN KEY LARGO.

THAT'S AMAZING.
ISN'T IT SCARY?

NO, IT'S
NOT SCARY.

ONCE YOU GET OVER
THE INITIAL SHOCK OF

HOW ENORMOUS THEY
ARE AND HOW MUCH

THEY LOOK LIKE
SHARKS WHEN ALL THAT'S

STICKING OUT OF THE
WATER IS THE FIN.

YOU HANG OUT IN THE
WATER WITH THE DOLPHINS

AND THEY SORT OF
DECIDE WHAT TO DO.

THEY'LL SWIM AROUND
AND SUDDENLY SHOW UP

NEXT TO YOU AND YOU
GRAB ONTO THEIR FIN

AND THEY'LL TAKE
YOU TO THE BOTTOM

AND SHOW YOU
AROUND. IT'S GREAT.

THAT'S FANTASTIC.

IT'S REALLY
GREAT.

HE FOLLOWED ME
EVERYWHERE I WENT.

HE FOLLOWED YOU
EVERYWHERE YOU WENT?

DID THEY EVER GET
SEXUALLY EXCITED?

THEY'RE A
RANDY BUNCH.

EVERYTHING
YOU'VE HEARD IS TRUE.

THEY ARE, INDEED.

HOW DO YOU
DEAL WITH THAT?

IT'S FUNNY,
ACTUALLY.

IT'S NOT THREATENING,
IT'S PRETTY AMUSING.

IT'S DIFFERENT.

THEY'RE ONLY
INTERESTED IN YOUR KNEES.

IT'S THE
CORRESPONDING AREA.

IF YOUR FEET WERE A
TAIL, THEN YOUR KNEES...

IF YOUR FEET
WERE A TAIL- AAH.

SO THEY ARE GOING
FOR THE EQUAL AREA

BUT IT HAPPENS TO
HIT YOU IN THE KNEES.

IT'S LIKE THERE ARE
ELECTRICAL CHARGES

GOING THROUGH
THE WATER.

WHEN YOU'RE UNDER THE
WATER YOU CAN HEAR SOUND

ALL AROUND YOU BUT
YOU CAN'T SEE THEM AND

IT'S LIKE THIS CLICKING
SORT OF CRACKLING SOUND

AND IT TRAVELS
FROM ONE SIDE

THROUGH YOUR HEAD
AND OUT THE OTHER.

AND WHEN THEY'RE OUT OF
THE WATER THEY SORT OF GO

AH-AH-AH-AH-AH.
LIKE THAT.

WHAT ABOUT
THESE GUYS HERE?

THAT'S A CHIMPANZEE THAT
I TAUGHT FOR A WHILE.

I TAUGHT HIM HOW TO
SPEAK SIGN LANGUAGE

FOR A COUPLE
OF YEARS.

YOU TAUGHT
THIS GUY?

THIS IS ALL THE
SAME CHIMPANZEE?

YEAH, AT
DIFFERENT STAGES.

THAT'S YOU!

THAT'S ME AT A DIFFERENT
STAGE OF DEVELOPMENT.

THAT'S RIGHT,
IT'S A LITTLE YOU.

YEAH, IT'S
A LITTLE ME.

HOW LONG DID YOU
LIVE WITH THEM?

FOR TWO YEARS
ON AND OFF.

HOW DO YOU KNOW HOW
TO SPEAK SIGN LANGUAGE?

I LEARNED,
TO TEACH HIM.

I HELPED TO
RAISE HIM.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A
PROJECT IN ORDER TO SEE

WHETHER CHIMPANZEES
HAD THE CAPACITY FOR

SENTENCE STRUCTURE AND
I OFFERED MY SERVICES.

I DON'T CARE
WHAT YOU'RE DOING,

I DON'T CARE WHY
YOU'RE DOING IT,

I'LL DO ANYTHING.
I'LL CHANGE DIAPERS,

I'LL CLEAN YOUR KITCHEN,
I'LL DO ANYTHING.

AND SO I DID.

I MISS HIM.

I BET.

SO YOU'VE GOT
DOLPHINS AND CHIMPANZEES?

SOME OF THE BEST COMPANY
YOU'RE GOING TO FIND.

YOU DON'T LIKE
PEOPLE TOO MUCH I GUESS.

NO, I LIKE PEOPLE
BUT ONCE IN A WHILE

IT'S NICE TO HANG OUT
WITH A CHIMP, YOU KNOW?

I'M NOT A CHIMP AND
I'M NOT A DOLPHIN

BUT I NEED A
PLACE TO SLEEP.

WELL, YOU CAN
CERTAINLY SLEEP...

RIGHT HERE?

IN WHATEVER ROOM
IN THIS HOUSE...

RIGHT HERE?

WILL YOU JOIN ME?

I'LL TAKE THE COUCH BUT
FEEL FREE TO HAVE THE ROOM.

DID YOU EVER SLEEP
WITH THE CHIMPANZEE?

HE DIDN'T SLEEP IN BED
WITH ME BUT HE WOULD

HAVE NIGHTMARES
PERIODICALLY AND CLIMB IN

IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE NIGHT.

SORT OF OOH
OOH! AH! AH!

OOH OOH AH AH!
SORT OF LIKE THAT.

IF I DO THAT THEN I
CAN JUMP INTO BED...

OKAY.

OOH OOH AH AH!

OOH OOH AH AH AH!

YOU'RE A VERY
WEIRD MIXTURE.

I DON'T KNOW HOW
TO INTEGRATE YOU

WITH THESE OTHER
TWO PEOPLE I SEE HERE.

THEY'RE NICE
BUT THEY'RE-

THEY'RE
VERY SWEET.

BUT THEY
ARE A LITTLE-

THEY'RE DIFFERENT.

THEY'RE
DIFFERENT, YEAH.

I'VE HAD
TRAINING.

AT DEALING WITH THE
DIFFERENT - OH, I SEE.

CHIMPS, DOLPHINS
AND ROOMMATES.

I'M JUST GOING TO GO
TO SLEEP RIGHT HERE

IF YOU
DON'T MIND.

HOW ABOUT YOU GO HANG
OUT IN THE LIVING ROOM

AND WHEN I'M CLEARED
OUT OF HERE IT'S YOURS.

I'VE GOT TO PACK.

I CAN'T STAND
THAT SOUND.

PLEASE, I
REALLY...

COULD YOU
TAKE THAT STUFF

AND PACK IT
SOMEWHERE ELSE?

I'LL PACK IT OUT
OF THIS ROOM, OKAY?

CAN I PILE IT
UP AND TAKE OFF?

SHHH.

I'M OUT OF
HERE, OKAY?

TWO MORE SECONDS.

YOU'RE NICE,
I'M SORRY.

NO, I
UNDERSTAND.

YOU NEED SLEEP,
YOU'RE NOT FEELING WELL.

IT'S FREEZING
IN NEW YORK.

GOOD NIGHT,
HAPPY DREAMS.

I'M SORRY.

SEE YOU
LATER TONIGHT.

BYE.

SO WHAT ELSE IN HERE IS
MINE THAT I NEED TO TAKE?

I'VE GOT MY
BATHING SUIT...

THIS BLACK
BATHING SUIT.

WHERE'D YOU GET IT?
I WANT ONE LIKE IT.

KEEP MINE.

REALLY? I
LOVE YOU.

I LOVE
YOU TOO.

WHAT ELSE HAVE I GOT
HERE THAT I HAVE TO TAKE?

(DOORBELL)

HEY.

OH, MOTHER, PLEASE LET'S
NOT TALK ABOUT THIS AGAIN.

I'VE MADE A NEW
YEAR'S RESOLUTION.

IT'S GOING TO BE
VERY DIFFERENT NOW.

I'M NOT GOING
TO CALL YOU,

I'M GOING TO LEAVE
YOU TOTALLY ALONE.

I'M GOING TO LET YOU
BE YOUR OWN PERSON.

I KNOW I'VE BEEN
A PAIN IN THE ASS,

I'VE BEEN CALLING
YOU EVERY MORNING.

I WON'T DO
THAT ANYMORE.

YOU KNOW THAT WHEN
I MAKE A RESOLUTION

I STICK TO IT.

I STOPPED SMOKING,
I STOPPED DRINKING.

JUST STAY HERE UNTIL
YOU LINE SOMETHING UP

AND YOU KNOW
WHAT YOU'RE DOING.

WHAT'S THE POINT
OF GOING TO LA

AND GOING TO
THAT JUNGLE?

AH, IT'S JUST
RIDICULOUS.

THANK YOU, I'LL
REMEMBER THAT.

PLEASE DON'T WEAR THAT
RIBBON, IT'S SO WRINKLED.

MY RIBBON IS FINE, I
WEAR IT ALL THE TIME.

IT LOOKS IT.

THANKS. YOU WANT
TO DO ME A FAVOR?

STOP WEARING
THE FUR.

I'LL STOP
WEARING THE RIBBON

IF YOU STOP
WEARING THE FUR.

I'M NOT BUYING ANY
MORE FURS AFTER THIS.

I WASN'T GOING TO SAY
THIS BECAUSE I DON'T

THINK IT'S FAIR TO SAY
THIS BUT YOU'RE MY ONLY

CHILD AND I DON'T THINK
IT'S FAIR OF YOU TO LEAVE

THE CITY THAT I'M IN AND
JUST LEAVE ME HERE ALONE.

YOU'VE GOTTA
BE KIDDING ME.

MOM, I'M NOT
LEAVING YOU HERE ALONE.

YOU'VE GOT
40,000 FRIENDS.

THAT'S NOT
THE SAME THING.

IF I PROMISE THAT I'M
NOT GOING TO BOTHER YOU-

THIS IS NOT ABOUT
YOUR BOTHERING ME,

THIS IS ABOUT
MY LIFE.

BUT YOU'RE SO
WONDERFUL AT WHAT YOU DO.

I WATCH THOSE
CARTOONS ALL THE TIME.

THEY'RE
WONDERFUL.

THE ONE ABOUT THE
DOG AND THE CAT -

YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY
BRILLIANT.

THEY'LL BE IN RE-RUNS
BEFORE YOU KNOW IT.

JUST BECAUSE I GO DOESN'T
MEAN THE CARTOON GOES.

YOU HAVE MADE A
NAME FOR YOURSELF,

YOU HAVE A BRILLIANT,
WONDERFUL CAREER.

WHY SPOIL IT ALL?

YOU WON'T FIND A JOB
THERE, POSSIBLY,

YOU'LL COME BACK HERE AND
THEY WON'T TAKE YOU BACK.

I WOULD APPRECIATE A
LITTLE BIT OF SUPPORT.

DON'T TELL ME I'M
NOT GOING TO GET

ANYTHING
DONE THERE.

THAT'S NOT WHAT
I NEED TO HEAR.

I'M SAYING YOU
POSSIBLY MIGHT NOT.

WELL, THANK YOU FOR
POSSIBLY MIGHT NOT.

MOM, CAN WE
STOP NOW?

I'M NEVER GOING TO
BOTHER YOU AGAIN.

SOMEONE ORDERED-

NO ONE ORDERED
THIS FOOD!

I DON'T WANT
THIS FOOD!

I'M SORRY I JUST DON'T
WANT THE FOOD HERE.

WE GOT THE PHONE CALL AND
SOMEONE ORDERED THE FOOD.

THERE IS NO ONE HERE THAT
COULD ORDER THIS FOOD.

THIS FOOD IS
DRIVING ME NUTS!

JUST WAIT
A SECOND,

I'LL TELL YOU WHO
ORDERED IT, OKAY?

HOLD ON...

RICHARDS,
APARTMENT 3C.

LUCY, WHY WOULD
YOU ORDER THIS FOOD

AND TORTURE
ME LIKE THIS?

$124.87.

I WON'T BE ABLE
TO REACH YOU.

OH, MY GOD.

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT
CAN HAPPEN AT MY AGE.

OH, MY GOD.

I'M BEGGING YOU, PLEASE
TAKE THE FOOD AWAY.

CALM DOWN,
TAKE IT EASY.

I'M SORRY I CAN'T
TAKE THE FOOD BACK.

WHY NOT?

BECAUSE SOMEONE
ORDERED IT.

WE PREPARED THIS
STUFF FOR YOU GUYS.

THERE'S A TRAY OF PASTA
SALAD, THERE'S A TRAY OF

TUNA SALAD, A TRAY
OF ZUCCHINI SALAD

AND THERE'S TWO
BOXES OF COOKIES.

WHAT YOU SEE IS
WHAT YOU GET.

I'M HAVING A COMPLETE
ANXIETY ATTACK.

I WOULD DO ANYTHING NOT
TO HAVE THIS FOOD HERE!

JUST GET IT
OUT OF HERE!

I'M GOING CRAZY
OVER THIS FOOD!

GET IT OUT!

JUST TAKE
IT EASY.

I SAID I'D MAKE GOOD ON
IT, JUST GET RID OF IT!

WHERE'S LUCY?

FORGET LUCY,
FORGET RICHARDS,

SHE MADE A MISTAKE!

WHERE IS SHE? LET
HER TELL ME, OKAY?

WHERE'S THE
KITCHEN AT?

I'M GOING TO PUT
THIS IN THE KITCHEN,

YOU GET LUCY TO GIVE
ME A CHECK, OKAY?

JESUS CHRIST.

(DOOR BEING
UNLOCKED)

HEY, HOW ARE
YOU DOING?

I'M OKAY.

DO YOU MIND
THAT I'M HERE?

WHAT ARE YOU
DOING HERE?

I JUST CAME
TO SEE YOU.

I HEARD YOU'RE MOVING
TO THE WEST COAST.

YEAH, I AM.

THANKS FOR TELLING
ME. I APPRECIATE IT.

I DIDN'T WANT
TO TELL ANYBODY.

ANYWAY, I
BROUGHT SOME STUFF.

THIS IS ALL THE STUFF
I HAVE THAT'S YOURS.

DON'T DO THIS HERE,
DON'T DO THIS HERE.

JUST TAKE IT.

WHAT IS THIS?

THIS IS YOURS,
AND THIS.

LITTLE WORSE FOR
WEAR BUT IT'S YOURS.

PLEASE DON'T DO
THIS HERE, DAMMIT.

STOP!

I DON'T THINK
THERE'S ANYTHING

TO TALK
ABOUT REALLY.

WHAT CAN I SAY?

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT YOU CAN SAY.

I DON'T THINK
WE NEED TO TALK.

I DON'T THINK WE
NEED TO BE HERE

AND THERE'S PEOPLE
COMING OVER.

ANYTHING
THAT I SAY-

I JUST HAVE TO ACT
NOW, YOU KNOW?

MY ACTIONS ARE GOING
TO BE WHAT YOU SEE

BECAUSE
ANYTHING I SAY

IS JUST GOING TO BE
BULLSHIT, YOU KNOW?

IF YOU HAVE SOMETHING
TO SAY TO ME

YOU SHOULD
SAY IT.

YOU HAVE TO
GIVE ME SOME TIME.

IF YOU GO WHAT
AM I GOING TO DO?

CALL YOU ON THE PHONE AND
GET IT TOGETHER THAT WAY?

YOU HAD A
LOT OF TIME.

I DIDN'T HAVE TIME,
TWO MONTHS WE TOOK OFF.

FOR TWO MONTHS WE
HAD A LOT OF TIME

AND I THINK I'VE
SEEN EVERYTHING

THERE IS TO
SEE WITH THIS.

NOW I KNOW
WHAT'S IMPORTANT.

SO NOW CAN YOU
GIVE ME THE CHANCE

WHEN I KNOW
WHAT'S OVER ME?

WHAT IS GOING
TO BE IN LA?

I'M GONNA BE IN
LA, AWAY FROM YOU.

I'LL CALL YOU
EVERY DAY THEN.

WELL, I MAY
NOT TALK TO YOU.

WELL, THEN I'LL
CALL YOU TWICE A DAY.

LUCY... LOOK.

I SEE YOU.

I SEE YOU! I
KNOW EVERYTHING

THAT THERE IS TO
KNOW ABOUT US.

I DON'T THINK
THERE'S ANY REASON

FOR US TO
DO THIS AGAIN.

DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY
TIMES YOU FUCKED AROUND

ON ME AND LEFT ME SITTING
THERE AND LIED TO ME AND

TREATED ME AS IF I WAS
THE ONE WHO WAS MISTAKEN?

DO YOU KNOW WHAT
THAT FEELS LIKE?

YOU DON'T KNOW
WHAT THAT FEELS LIKE.

I KNOW WHAT
IT FEELS LIKE.

NOBODY DOES
THAT TO YOU.

YOU'VE DONE
IT TO ME.

IF I'VE DONE THAT TO YOU
AND I ADMIT THAT I HAVE

I GUESS I HAVE BECAUSE BY
THE END OF THIS GODDAMN

THING WE WERE BOTH DOING
THE SAME THING, BILLY.

WE WERE BOTH DOING
THE SAME THING

AND THAT'S
WHY I'M GOING.

BECAUSE
THAT'S NOT ME.

AND ALL OF A SUDDEN
I'M TURNING INTO YOU

AND I REALLY
DON'T BELIEVE

THAT'S WHO
YOU ARE EITHER.

BUT I CAN'T PLAY
THAT GAME ANYMORE.

I CAN'T WAIT AROUND
FOR MY THEORY

TO BE
PROVEN TRUE.

I JUST NEED ONE
MORE CHANCE, ALRIGHT?

JUST ONE.

YOU'RE WHAT
I WANT NOW.

OKAY, JUST STAY.

THERE ARE PEOPLE
COMING OVER AND

YOU CAN JUST STAY AND
WE'LL TALK ABOUT IT LATER.

JUST STAY, OKAY?

*

*

WHAT CAN I TELL
YOU ABOUT ME?

WHY ARE YOU GOING
TO LOS ANGELES?

REALLY, WHY
ARE YOU GOING?

I'M LEAVING THINGS
THAT I THINK NEED TO BE

LEFT BEHIND AND I'M
HOPEFULLY MOVING ON

TO SOME THINGS THAT I
CAN LOOK FORWARD TO.

WHAT DO YOU WANT
TO GET AWAY FROM?

A NO-WIN
SITUATION.

DO YOU MIND MY TOUCHING
YOUR KNEE THIS WAY?

WHY ARE YOU TOUCHING
MY KNEE THAT WAY?

I FOUND MYSELF
TOUCHING YOUR KNEE.

IT'S A NICE KNEE
AND IT'S TOUCHABLE.

IT'S PURELY AFFECTION
AT A VERY SAFE DISTANCE.

THAT'S FINE.

STAY THERE AND MY KNEE
WILL STAY WHERE IT IS.

NO, I HAVE NO INTEREST
IN APPROACHING CHILDREN

WITH ANY
SEXUALITY WHATSOEVER.

I'M LOOKING FOR
ADULTS IN LIFE.

NOTHING PERSONAL.

I KNOW THAT'S A HARD
REJECTION FOR YOU, BUT...

I CAN'T TAKE IT!

I KNOW, IT'S
HARD, ISN'T IT?

REALLY, I DON'T HAVE A
PROBLEM WITH THAT AT ALL.

I'M SORRY BUT I
JUST CAN'T ACCEPT

YOUR KIND OFFER
OF SEXUAL FAVORS.

SO WHY'D YOU
COME HERE?

TO NEW YORK?

TO NOT BE IN
LOS ANGELES.

TO NOT BE
ALONE IN MY HOUSE-

IN OUR HOUSE, THE HOUSE
THAT WAS AN "OUR" HOUSE

AND IS NOW A "MY"
HOUSE IN LOS ANGELES.

THE HOUSE I'D BEEN LIVING
HAPPILY IN FOR A LONG TIME

AND NOW I AM NOT IN IT WITH
THE PERSON I WAS HAPPY WITH

SO I COME BACK TO
THE CITY THAT I'M FROM

THINKING I CAN START MY
LIFE OVER AGAIN HERE

AND FIND A WAY TO BE
HAPPY AGAIN HERE

LIKE I WAS BEFORE...
BEFORE.

BUT WHAT I
THINK I PROBABLY

HAVE TO COME
TO TERMS WITH

IS THE FACT THAT IT'S
TOO LATE TO DO THAT.

YOU GET TO A
CERTAIN POINT IN LIFE

AND YOU CAN'T
START AGAIN.

OH, I DON'T
AGREE WITH THAT.

WHETHER YOU AGREE OR
NOT- IT'S VERY SWEET

OF YOU TO SAY YOU
DON'T AGREE WITH IT,

BUT YOU HAVE NO
WAY OF KNOWING YET.

I DO KNOW.

YOU DON'T KNOW.

THERE'S NO REASON
WHY YOU SHOULDN'T

BE ABLE TO
START AGAIN.

THERE'S NO MORE
REASON THAT YOU

SHOULDN'T BE ABLE
TO START AGAIN THAN

THAT I SHOULDN'T BE
ABLE TO START AGAIN.

ONE GENERATION IS ABOUT
THE REASON, DIFFERENT.

WHEN YOU START AND YOU'VE
GOT THIS ENTIRE FUTURE

TO LOOK FORWARD TO AND
IT HASN'T HAPPENED YET

IT'S TOTALLY DIFFERENT
THAN WHEN IT'S HAPPENED

AND IT DIDN'T WORK AND
THEN YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO

START AGAIN AND IT'S
A VERY HARD THING TO

IMAGINE DOING AND
I THINK PROBABLY

THE GROWN-UP THING TO
DO IS TO COME TO TERMS

WITH THE FACT
THAT IT'S TOO LATE.

I DON'T THINK GIVING UP
IS THE GROWN-UP THING

TO DO IN LIFE.

I WASN'T TALKING
ABOUT GIVING UP.

SOUNDS TO ME LIKE
YOU'RE GIVING UP.

I'M TALKING ABOUT
GIVING IN TO REALITY,

I'M TALKING ABOUT GIVING
IN TO THE TRUTH OF THE

FACT THAT REALITY IS THAT
AFTER A CERTAIN NUMBER

OF YEARS YOU CAN'T BEGIN
AGAIN AS IF YOU WERE -

WHAT ARE YOU,
25, 26 YEARS OLD?

YOU CAN'T DO THAT WHEN
YOU'RE 45 OR 46 YEARS OLD.

IT'S A TOTALLY
DIFFERENT THING.

YOU CAN'T SUDDENLY
PRETEND THAT YOU'VE GOT

THAT SAME SPAN OF LIFE IN
FRONT OF YOU AND THE SAME

TIME TO GO OUT THERE AND
HOPE TO MEET THE PERSON

AND TO FIND THAT BALANCE
BETWEEN ALL THE THINGS

NECESSARY IN ORDER FOR
YOU AND THAT OTHER PERSON

TO START A
LIFE TOGETHER.

ESPECIALLY IF LIKE ME YOU
HAVEN'T HAD CHILDREN YET

AND YOU WANT DESPERATELY
TO HAVE CHILDREN

AND YOU DON'T THINK
THERE'S ANY WAY TO DO IT.

IT'S A VERY DANGEROUS
DREAM TO HOLD ONTO.

SO MAYBE IT'S BETTER AND
GROWN AND MORE IN TOUCH

WITH REALITY TO
ACKNOWLEDGE THE FACT

THAT THIS IS WHAT IT IS,
THAT YOU ARE WHO YOU ARE,

IT IS TOO LATE AND FIND
ANOTHER LEVEL IN LIFE,

ANOTHER LEVEL OF
ENJOYMENT OF LIFE

OTHER THAN EXPECTANCY,
OTHER THAN ROMANTIC HOPE,

OTHER THAN DREAMING
STILL OF MEETING SOMEBODY,

OTHER THAN PLACING YOUR
ENTIRE FANTASY LEVEL,

YOUR HOPEFULNESS LEVEL,
YOUR HAPPINESS LEVEL

ON A DREAM THAT IS
APPROPRIATE FOR

SOMEBODY OF 25 AND
NOT SOMEBODY OF 45.

WELL, MAYBE THE NEXT
RELATIONSHIP IN YOUR LIFE

WILL EXIST ON
ANOTHER LEVEL.

YEAH, AND
MAYBE NOT.

OR MAYBE THAT
OTHER LEVEL WILL BE

SOME KIND OF
COMPROMISE LEVEL.

A LEVEL WHERE IT'S NICE
BUT IT'S NOT EVERYTHING.

AND IT'S OKAY
BUT IT'S NOT TOTAL,

AND IT DOESN'T SATISFY
WHAT REALLY HAS TO BE DONE.

(DOORBELL)

HI, HAPPY
NEW YEAR.

WINONA, I'D LIKE YOU
TO MEET MY FRIEND,

DR. STADTHAGEN.

NICE TO MEET
YOU, COME ON IN.

LET ME TAKE
YOUR UMBRELLA.

I THINK EVERYBODY
HAS THE POSSIBILITY

TO START AGAIN,

TO START SOMEWHERE
IN THEIR LIFE AGAIN,

TO HAVE CHILDREN
LATE IN LIFE,

TO HAVE LOVE
LATE IN LIFE.

LATE IN LIFE?

YOU'RE NOT LATE - I
LOOKED AT YOUR FACE

AS SOON AS
I SAID THAT.

I DIDN'T- YOU'RE
TALKING LIKE YOU'RE

AT THE END OF THE
GODDAMN ROAD, MISTER.

LATE IN FUCKING
LIFE, IS YOUR WORDS.

I AM RESPONDING
TO YOUR ATTITUDE.

IT HAS NOTHING TO
DO WITH LATE IN LIFE.

I AM PRENATAL
ACCORDING TO YOU,

SO LOOK AT
WHERE YOU ARE.

YOU'RE ONLY
JUST BEGINNING.

YEP.

I'M FEELING STRANGELY
LIKE THE OLDER MAN.

I GUESS THAT COMES
TO EVERYBODY

AT ONE MOMENT
OR ANOTHER...

FEELING THAT YOU'RE
THE OLDER MAN.

I ALWAYS WAS THE
YOUNGEST ONE,

AND EVERYBODY
ELSE WAS OLDER

SO IT'S VERY WEIRD TO
SUDDENLY WAKE UP ONE DAY

- AND THAT'S
EXACTLY HOW IT SEEMS -

YOU WAKE UP ONE DAY AND
FIND YOURSELF PLAYING A PART.

I'M PLAYING THE
PART OF THE OLDER MAN.

THAT'S A
LITTLE WEIRD.

WHERE ARE YOU
PLAYING THIS ROLE?

WELL, WITH
YOUR KNEE.

(LAUGHING)

KNEES.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

LITTLE DRINK...

(DOORBELL)

DAD?

I WANT TO TALK
TO YOU ABOUT

THIS CALIFORNIA
THING.

BUT I CAN'T DO
IT RIGHT NOW.

IT HAS TO BE RIGHT NOW,
YOU'RE LEAVING TOMORROW.

WHY DON'T I JUST CALL YOU
IN AN HOUR OR SOMETHING.

HONEY, I DON'T THINK
IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN.

IT WILL, I SWEAR. I'LL
CALL YOU IN AN HOUR.

YOU GOT SOMEBODY
HERE? WHAT'S GOING ON?

THERE'S A COUPLE OF
PEOPLE HERE BUT I'VE GOT

SO MUCH STUFF TO DO
AND YOU DIDN'T CALL.

I DON'T HAVE TO
CALL, I'M YOUR FATHER.

TEN MINUTES IS ALL
I WANT, TEN MINUTES!

I CAN'T DO IT
NOW, DADDY!

HONEY, I'VE
THOUGHT ABOUT IT,

I'VE GOT TO TALK
TO YOU ABOUT IT.

I CANNOT LET YOU
GO TO CALIFORNIA

JUST LIKE THAT!

FINE, TEN
MINUTES, OKAY?

THAT'S ALL I'M GIVING
YOU AND THEN YOU'LL GO?

I'LL GO AS SOON AS
WE'RE THROUGH TALKING.

FIFTEEN MINUTES.

TEN MINUTES, DADDY.

I'M YOUR FATHER,
I MAY DIE TOMORROW.

YOU'RE NOT GOING TO DIE,
YOU'VE GOT TEN MINUTES.

BUT DON'T DO IT
WITH AN ATTITUDE.

HONEY, LIFE IS
LIKE A TV SITCOM.

YOU GOTTA KNOW WHERE
THE LAUGHS ARE AND

ALWAYS REMEMBER, WHEN
THINGS GET EMOTIONAL

YOU KNOW THERE'S A
COMMERCIAL COMING UP.

OH, GOD, DAD.

I KNOW
THESE THINGS.

I HAVEN'T SPENT YEARS
WRITING THEM FOR NOTHING.

PEARLS OF
WISDOM.

I DON'T KNOW THAT I
WOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE

TO MAKE THIS TRIP
WITHOUT THAT ADVICE.

HAVE YOU MADE ANY NEW
YEAR'S RESOLUTIONS?

I'M GIVING UP ALL MY
COMPULSIVE BEHAVIOR.

ALL OF IT?

I WAS A HIT, I LEFT A HIT,
YOU DON'T SEE ME OUT THERE.

FINE, I HAVE TO GO
THERE AND BE A HIT.

AND GET HURT?

I CAN HANDLE
BEING HURT, OKAY?

I CAN GET HURT WHEREVER
I GO, I'M GOING TO LA.

HONEY, IT'S LIKE WALKING
INTO A STRANGE PARTY.

YOU DON'T KNOW
ANYBODY THERE,

I'M NOT
THERE ANYMORE.

YOU THINK
IT'S EASY?

YOU KNOW WHAT
THAT PLACE IS LIKE?

WHY DO WE HAVE
TO TALK OUT HERE?

I FEEL LIKE
I'M IN A...

I CAN'T COME UP
WITH ANYTHING NOW.

I'VE GOT MY
PHILOSOPHY,

NOW HERE'S MY ADVICE
AND TAKE IT, PLEASE.

DO NOT GO TO
LA. DON'T GO.

I'M GOING TO GIVE
UP ANSWERING

THE PERSONAL ADS IN
THE NEW YORK REVUE.

(DOORBELL)

LAZLO.

I CAME TO WISH
YOU BON VOYAGE!

NOW THIS
ONE IS COLD.

SO WE'LL
DRINK IT NOW.

THIS ONE YOU'RE SUPPOSED
TO PUT IN THE FREEZER.

MMM.

THE RADIATOR'S BEEN
BANGING AND BANGING

AND MAKING THE
MOST HORRIBLE NOISE.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO
COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT NOW.

ALRIGHT, I
WON'T COMPLAIN.

THE NEW TENANT IS HERE,
HE SHOWED UP A DAY EARLY.

YOU WANT TO
MEET HIM?

HE SEEMS LIKE
A NICE GUY.

WHAT DID YOU WANT
TO TALK TO ME ABOUT?

I CAN'T TALK HER
OUT OF GOING TO LA.

THE KID'S SO
DETERMINED

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
TO DO ANYMORE.

BROOKS, YOU
GOTTA LET HER GO.

IT'S NOT ME
LETTING HER GO,

IT'S NOTHING
TO DO WITH THAT.

SHE'S GOING TO
GET HURT OUT THERE.

YOU HAVE TO LET
HER GET HURT

AND LEARN
ON HER OWN.

OH, COME ON.

MY LITTLE
WHITE DOVE.

WHY DO YOU
ALWAYS CALL ME THAT?

THAT'S THE
LULLABY.

LITTLE WHITE DOVE IS
FLYING AND SHE MEETS

GOD'S LITTLE ANGEL
AND THE ANGEL ASKS

"WHERE ARE YOU
GOING, HUMAN SOUL?"

AND THE SOUL SAYS "I'M
TRYING TO REACH HEAVEN".

I'M TRYING TO
REACH HEAVEN.

HEAVEN.

I NEVER TOLD YOU
THE ENGLISH WORD?

NO.

YOU'RE HER FATHER.
WHATEVER YOU SAY

AT THIS POINT IN HER LIFE
SHE'S GOING TO RESIST.

LET HER LEARN IT.

IF IT'S THAT BAD
SHE'LL FIND OUT.

THEN IT WILL
BE TOO LATE,

LIKE GOING INTO
COMBAT AND DYING.

YOU WENT THERE.

YOU HAD THE
EXPERIENCE.

OH, GOD. THERE'S
NOT GOING TO BE

ANYBODY LIKE
YOU IN CALIFORNIA.

COME ON.

I'M GOING TO GET IN SOME
TINY APARTMENT, SOME GIRL

IN GYM SHORTS IS GOING
TO LIVE IN THE BUILDING.

"OH, HI, YOU
NEED SOMETHING?

WHAT CAN
I GET YOU?

OH, REALLY?

I DON'T THINK WE
HAVE THAT HERE.

I DON'T THINK THEY
EVEN SELL IT IN LA".

THE BRAIN CELLS DIE
THE MINUTE YOU HIT LAX,

I'M NOT KIDDING.

IT'S NOT A PLACE FOR
A YOUNG, VITAL PERSON.

WHO MADE THESE SPOTS
ALL OVER THE WALLS?

NOT ME. THEY
MOVED ALL THAT

FURNITURE IN
AND EVERYTHING.

WELL, OH, NO.

I'M GOING TO
MISS YOU SO MUCH.

THIS
REALLY HURTS.

ME TOO.

LISTEN, THE REASON I
FEEL I CAN TALK TO YOU

ABOUT THIS IS YOU'RE
A LITTLE MORE MATURE

THAN THE
OTHER GIRLS

AND FRANKLY I'M
ATTRACTED TO YOU.

DOES IT BOTHER
YOU IF I SAY THAT?

NO, BROOKS.

BECAUSE I
ALWAYS HAVE BEEN.

REMEMBER WHEN YOU
HELPED ME THAT NIGHT?

DO YOU
REMEMBER?

WOW, DON'T
MENTION THAT.

NO, BECAUSE I CAME IN
AND I WAS REALLY UPSET.

I WAS IN SHOCK.

BUT YOU TOOK ME INTO
YOUR BED AND YOU HELD ME

AND YOU ALSO- BUT
IT... DIDN'T WORK.

YOU HEAR THAT?

STOP.

THAT'S NOTHING
TO BRAG ABOUT.

I'M NOT
BRAGGING.

I SHOULD HAVE A
RAINCHECK FOR THAT NIGHT.

YOU CAN HAVE
A RAINCHECK.

OH, YEAH?

WELL!

(DOORBELL)

HAPPY NEW YEAR.

WHAT USUALLY MAN
SAY WHEN, YOU KNOW,

AS AN EXCUSE WHEN
THEY CAN'T PERFORM?

WHAT DO
THEY SAY?

WHAT DO
THEY BLAME?

THEY SAY THEY'VE
HAD A LOT TO DRINK.

YEAH?

THEY SAY THEY'RE
REALLY TIRED.

YOU KNOW, BORING
STUFF LIKE THAT.

BUT NOBODY EVER
BELIEVES THEM.

DID I SAY
ANYTHING?

THAT WAS THE BEST PART,
YOU DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING.

WHY DO YOU THINK I,
YOU KNOW, DIDN'T?

I DON'T KNOW BUT I
DIDN'T CARE BECAUSE

WE JUST HELD EACH
OTHER ALL NIGHT.

OF COURSE I
HAVE ONE FOR YOU.

OH, GREAT.

YOU LIKE IT?

OH, THAT'S
A NICE ONE.

I'M SO SAD ALL
OF A SUDDEN.

WE DON'T WANT
TO LEAVE YOU.

WE DON'T
WANT TO GO!

WE'RE NEVER GOING
TO BE LIKE THIS AGAIN.

YEAH, YOU BOTH
SMELL GOOD.

OKAY, NOW WHAT
DO I HAVE TO DO?

NOW YOU MAKE A WISH
WHILE I'M TYING THE KNOT.

I KNOW
WHAT THAT IS.

ARE YOU WISHING
FOR A BOY OR A GIRL?

A GIRL. A GIRL
WOULD BE NICE.

OOH AH AH AH.

I DON'T THINK I
WANT TO DO IT.

WHY?

BECAUSE WHAT IF I MAKE A
WISH AND IT COMES TRUE?

I DON'T EVEN
KNOW WHAT I WANT.

WHAT IF I WISH FOR
SOMETHING AND IT'S THE

WRONG THING AND I GET
IT AND I'M NOT READY.

YOU MAKE A NEW
YEAR'S RESOLUTION,

YOU MAKE A
NEW YEAR'S WISH.

YOU STOP SOMETHING AND
YOU START SOMETHING.

BUT I DON'T EVEN
KNOW WHAT TO WISH FOR.

WISH FOR SOMETHING
REALLY SIMPLE,

SOMETHING
REALLY NICE.

YEAH?

OKAY.

MAKE YOUR WISH
WHILE I'M TYING IT ON.

HI.

GOD, THERE'S SO
MANY PEOPLE OUT THERE.

I KNOW.

I DON'T WANT
YOU TO GO.

I GOTTA
GO, ANNIE.

IT'S JUST KIND
OF SAD, ISN'T IT?

IT IS SAD.

BUT IT'S GOING
TO BE GREAT.

IT'S GOING TO BE
GREAT FOR YOU,

IT'S GOING TO
BE GREAT FOR ME.

*

*

LUCY, I
WANT TO TALK.

I HAVE TO
TALK TO YOU.

THIS IS A MAJOR THING,
WHY DON'T YOU JUST...

WHY ARE YOU
SO CONCERNED?

YOU CAME OUT OF
MY WIFE'S WOMB!

YOU'RE MY
DAUGHTER.

THIS IS NEW, THIS
FATHER OF THE YEAR STUFF.

I'M FINE, OKAY?

THERE ARE A LOT OF
PRETTY GIRLS HERE,

I'M SURE THERE'S
SOMEBODY YOU CAN TALK TO.

I'M FINE.

LUCY, COME ON.

AS OF TODAY NO MORE
SEX. UNLESS I KNOW

EVERY WOMAN THE
GUY HAS BEEN WITH

THAT I WANT TO BE WITH,
I'M NOT FUCKING HIM.

THE THERAPY I DO WITH
WOMEN ENTAILS THEIR

SEXUALITY AND THE
PROBLEMS RELATED TO IT.

AND I FOUND THE PERFECT
SYSTEM TO OVERCOME

THE PROBLEM OF MANY
PSYCHIATRISTS GETTING

INVOLVED IN THE ADVANTAGE
OF THE RELATIONSHIP

THEY HAVE WITH WOMEN
AND THEN SEDUCING

OR OTHERWISE HAVING
SEX WITH THEM.

WHAT I DO IS IT'S
IMPERATIVE THAT I HAVE

SEX WITH WOMEN BEFORE
THERE'S EVEN ANY HINT

THAT I PERFORM
THERAPY ON THEM.

I DON'T FEEL LIKE
DYING FROM SEX.

I'M SUPPOSED TO
GET TESTED NOW?

THEN HAVING THAT OUT
OF THE WAY THERE'S

NO OBSTACLE AND I'M FREE
TO ENGAGE IN THERAPY.

HOW DO YOU KNOW
WHERE HE'S BEEN?

HOW DO YOU KNOW
WHERE YOU'VE BEEN?

I GOT TESTED.

I DON'T
BELIEVE THAT.

I DID, I
GOT TESTED.

EXCUSE ME,
YOU ARE A...?

PSYCHOSEXOLOGIST.

OH, I SEE.

STOPPING SEX
IS SO BOGUS.

I MEAN,
STOP DRUGS.

THAT'S WHY
I DO PROFESS

TO SOME EXPERTISE
IN THIS FIELD.

NOTHING WILL EVER
GO UP THIS NOSE.

YOU THINK YOU
CAN KEEP TO IT?

I KNOW I CAN.

YOU KNOW, I
HAVE TO TELL YOU,

IT'S COMPLETELY
INCONSIDERATE

TO SMOKE THAT
SMELLY THING

AND HAVE DISREGARD
FOR PEOPLE LIKE THAT.

IT ALSO SHOWS
SOMETHING VERY

UNFORTUNATE ABOUT
YOUR SEXUAL CHARACTER.

TODAY IS THE FIRST DAY
OF THE REST OF MY LIFE

WITH A CLEAR
NASAL PASSAGE.

IF YOU CAN IMAGINE,
THE SHAPE OF THAT THING

AND WHAT YOU'RE TRYING
TO SUBSTITUTE IT FOR.

HEY!

SUBCONSCIOUS OR
UNCONSCIOUS FEAR

OF IMPOTENCY
ON YOUR PART.

EVERYBODY OKAY?

WE'RE TALKING ABOUT
LIFE AND DEATH AND DRUGS.

YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY
SURE IT'S OVER

BETWEEN YOU
AND LUCY?

IT DOESN'T MATTER.
SHE'S SURE.

SHE'S SURE
IT'S OVER.

BUT WHAT DO
YOU WANT?

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT I WANT.

YOU WANT
ANYTHING? NO?

A CRANBERRY
JUICE AND VODKA.

CRANBERRY
JUICE, OKAY.

I'M GOING TO LA.

LISTEN, EVERYBODY
OUT THERE IS BISEXUAL.

MAYBE YOU'LL
MAKE A WISH.

WHAT IS THIS?

IT'S A WISH
BRACELET.

A WISH
BRACELET?

WHERE DO YOU
GET THOSE?

I MADE THEM.

(DOORBELL)

OH, THANK
GOD IT'S YOU.

IF I EVER NEEDED TO
TALK TO YOU IT'S NOW.

MY FATHER'S DRIVING
ME OUT OF MY MIND.

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY
ENTIRE LIFE HE'S PLAYING

FATHER KNOWS BEST,
HE'S GOT SO MUCH ADVICE

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
TO DO WITH HIM.

I CAN'T SHUT
HIM UP BECAUSE

HE DOESN'T WANT
ME TO LEAVE.

AND THE GIRLS - I MEAN,
ANNIE'S SO GODDAMNED

DEPRESSED AND SHE'S
MAKING ME FEEL GUILTY

FOR LEAVING
BECAUSE IF I LEAVE

HER WHOLE FUCKING
LIFE FALLS APART.

I'VE GOTTA GET
OUT OF HERE.

WILLIAM'S ON THE
GODDAMN FIRE ESCAPE

FUCKING AROUND
WITH MARJORIE.

IT'S OUTRAGEOUS.

HE COMES
OVER HERE,

I THINK I'M
GOING, YOU KNOW.

I'VE GOTTEN HIM OUT OF MY
LIFE AND I DON'T WANT TO

TALK TO HIM AND HE SHOWS
UP HERE AND HE SAYS TO ME

"DON'T GO, DON'T GO"
AND I START THINKING,

OKAY, DON'T GO.

YOU SHOULDN'T LEAVE
SOMEBODY WHO YOU LOVE,

YOU SHOULDN'T
LEAVE A RELATIONSHIP

IF YOU THINK
IT'S GOING TO WORK.

AND I PUT SO MUCH
TIME INTO THIS,

MAYBE I'M NUTS, YOU
KNOW? MAYBE I'M NUTS

TO WALK AWAY FROM
THIS WHOLE THING.

WHAT THE FUCK AM I GOING
TO DO IN CALIFORNIA?

IT'S HOLLYWOOD
FOR CHRIST SAKE.

I LOVE THIS GUY,
I MEAN I LOVE HIM.

I MAY BE AN ASSHOLE
BUT I LOVE HIM.

AND THEN I WATCH HIM
DO THIS SHIT, YOU KNOW,

AND HE MAKES THESE
PROMISES TO ME

AND I START
BELIEVING HIM.

I START BELIEVING
HIM AGAIN.

I THINK HE
MEANS IT THIS TIME.

HE REALLY MEANS IT
BECAUSE HE'S A GOOD

PERSON, HE'S GOT A GOOD
SOUL AND A GOOD HEART

AND HE REALLY LOVES
ME, YOU KNOW?

I KNOW HE LOVES ME, AND
I KNOW HE LOVES ME MORE

THAN ANY OF THESE PEOPLE
THAT HE CAN'T KEEP HIS

GODDAMN HANDS OFF OF,
THAT HE HAS TO GO FOR

BECAUSE THEY'RE
GOING FOR HIM.

BUT I KNOW THAT
WHAT WE HAVE

IS MORE IMPORTANT
THAN THAT.

AND MAYBE I'M AN IDIOT
TO WALK AWAY FROM IT

AND STOP
FIGHTING.

WHAT AM
I DOING?

WHAT IF I GO OUT
THERE AND I REALIZE

WHAT A MISTAKE I'VE
MADE AND HE'S OFF

NECK DEEP IN SOME
OTHER RELATIONSHIP

BECAUSE HE CAN'T STAND
TO BE BY HIMSELF?

AND THEN I DON'T KNOW
WHO'S GOING TO BE

MORE UNHAPPY,
HIM OR ME?

YOU'RE LISTENING TO
THE WRONG VOICES.

YOU HAVE TO LISTEN
TO YOUR VOICE.

IT'S A
HASSLE NOW.

BUT IT'S A
TEMPORARY HASSLE.

ALL OF THAT
NONSENSE GOES AWAY.

YOU HAVE TO REMAIN,
AND THE YOU THAT HAS TO

REMAIN HAS TO BE STRONGER
THAN WHAT'S HERE NOW.

AND IT CAN'T
BE STRONGER

UNLESS THERE'S A
LITTLE BIT OF TROUBLE.

IT LOOKS LIKE IT'S SO
BIG, IT'S SO ENORMOUS,

BUT IT'S NO MATCH FOR ANY
OF THE DREAMS YOU HAVE.

IT'S NO MATCH FOR THE
TALENT, IT'S NO MATCH FOR

ANY OF THE STRENGTH, THE
STRENGTH THAT'S INSIDE.

THOSE PEOPLE MATTER IN
A CERTAIN WAY BUT NOT

IN ANY WAY TO EQUAL THE
POWER THAT'S INSIDE YOU.

YOU GOTTA
KEEP DREAMING.

THINK OF ALL THE
PHENOMENAL THINGS

WE TALKED ABOUT YOU
BEING ABLE TO DO.

YOU CAN DO IT.

SO WHAT IS THIS
BULLSHIT ABOUT, HUH?

WHAT BULLSHIT?

YOUR BULLSHIT, WHAT IS
YOUR BULLSHIT ABOUT?

YOU HAVE TO BE
MORE SPECIFIC.

WHAT KIND
OF BULLSHIT?

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT
YOUR BULLSHIT IS?

I KNOW WHAT SOME
OF MY BULLSHIT IS.

WELL, WHAT IS THE
BULLSHIT YOU KNOW ABOUT?

WHAT MAKES
YOU INTERESTED?

BULLSHIT
IS MY LIFE.

DID YOU EVER
MAKE A WISH

WHEN YOU BLEW
OUT YOUR CANDLES?

DID YOU EVER TIE A STRING
AROUND YOUR FINGER?

THERE'S SOMETHING
VERY DISTURBING

ABOUT WHAT'S
GOING ON HERE.

AND YOU MANIFEST
THE DISTURBANCE.

I EMBODY IT.

YOU EMBODY THE
DISTURBANCE.

THAT DOES NOT
MEAN THAT YOU ARE

WHAT'S
DISTURBING.

IT DOES MEAN
THAT THE DISTURBANCE

RESTS IN
YOUR BODY.

AND IN
YOUR BULLSHIT.

YUP.

AND YOUR BULLSHIT
IS CONSIDERABLE.

THIS IS COMING FROM
SOMEONE WHO KNOWS?

I DO RECOGNIZE SOMETHING
ABOUT IT OBVIOUSLY.

SOMETHING
FAMILIAR.

SOMETHING
FAMILIAR, YES.

I CAN SAY
IT'S FAMILIAR.

BUT THE
DIFFERENCE IS,

AND THIS MAY BE
JUST CHRONOLOGICAL...

YEAH?

BUT I DOUBT IT.

THE DIFFERENCE
SEEMS TO BE THAT

UNDERNEATH MY
BULLSHIT IS A REALITY

THAT CAN COME
TO THE SURFACE

WHEN IT IS ENGAGING
ANOTHER HUMAN BEING.

UNDERNEATH
YOUR BULLSHIT

THERE SEEMS TO
BE MORE BULLSHIT.

WHEN I TIE IT
AROUND YOUR WRIST

YOU MAKE A WISH
TO YOURSELF.

AND YOU WEAR IT
UNTIL IT FALLS OFF

AND THEN YOUR WISH
WILL COME TRUE.

UNDERNEATH YOUR BULLSHIT
IS THERE SOMEBODY REAL?

THERE'S SOMEBODY REAL
WHO HAPPENS TO THINK

THAT THE BULLSHIT
IS SO INTERESTING

THAT HE CAN'T
GET RID OF IT.

OH, YOU'VE LEARNED
THAT THIS BULLSHIT

IS INTERESTING.

IMAGINATIVE BULLSHIT
DOESN'T SMELL AS BADLY.

AH, DON'T BE
CUTE WITH ME.

YOU DON'T TRUST THAT
UNDERNEATH YOUR BULLSHIT

WHAT YOU'VE REALLY
GOT IS INTERESTING,

THAT ANYBODY'S GOING
TO GIVE A SHIT, RIGHT?

I HAVE TO
BITE THIS OFF...

TELL ME
ABOUT LUCY.

IT'S PRIVATE.

I'M INTERESTED IN WHAT
YOU'RE DOING TO LUCY.

WHY DO YOU DO THIS
BULLSHIT WITH LUCY?

I DON'T KNOW.

IT SEEMS TO ME THAT
YOU'RE SAYING TO ME,

IF I UNDERSTAND
YOU CORRECTLY, THAT

YOU'RE AFRAID IF YOU LET
PEOPLE SEE WHO YOU ARE

THEY'RE GOING TO SEE
THAT NOBODY'S THERE...

OR WHOEVER'S THERE
ISN'T WORTH ANYTHING.

NOT THAT
NOBODY'S THERE,

I'M SURE SOMEBODY'S
THERE, THAT THE PERSON

THAT'S THERE IS
CORRUPT AND IS BAD.

YOU THINK
YOU'RE BAD?

I DON'T KNOW BAD, BUT,
YEAH, MAYBE IT IS BAD.

YOU REALLY BELIEVE
YOU'RE BAD IN SOME WAY?

YES.

WHAT WAY?

WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID
WILL SHOW UNDERNEATH?

YOU'RE SAYING SOMETHING
NEGATIVE WILL SHOW.

DARK.

DARK? IT'S OBVIOUSLY
VERY APPEALING

ON A CERTAIN LEVEL TO
WOMEN, THAT DARKNESS,

AND YOU KNOW THAT
AND YOU USE IT.

BUT WHEN WOMEN
ARE ATTRACTED TO ME

IT'S NOT FOR
THE DARKNESS,

IT'S FOR WHAT THEY
CONSIDER TO BE LIGHT.

BUT THEY'RE
NOT SEEING YOU.

RIGHT, I THINK THAT HAS
SOMETHING TO DO WITH

WHY THERE'S SO MUCH
MISTREATMENT GOING ON

FROM ME TO PEOPLE I
FEEL MISUNDERSTAND ME

OR DON'T
UNDERSTAND ME.

OR AREN'T GETTING WHAT
I FEEL MYSELF TO BE

SO I
PUNISH THEM.

DOES THAT HAVE ANYTHING
TO DO WITH THE REASON

SHE'S GOING
TO CALIFORNIA?

I IMAGINE IT DOES.
WHETHER SHE WANTS TO

TELL ME THAT OR
NOT IS UP TO HER.

HAS SHE TOLD
YOU THAT?

YEAH, SHE'S
TOLD ME THAT.

THAT HAS SOMETHING
TO DO WITH IT?

WELL, SURE. I MEAN,
WHAT DID YOU THINK?

I DON'T KNOW. I
DON'T KNOW HER.

I JUST WALKED INTO
HER SITUATION HERE

AND I'M SEEING
SOMETHING VERY FRAUGHT.

DO YOU MIND MY ASKING
YOU THESE QUESTIONS?

NOT REALLY.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE GETTING OUT OF IT.

WHY DO YOU
CARE?

I DON'T KNOW, I'M
TRYING TO UNDERSTAND-

THESE PEOPLE ARE GOING
TO BE OUT OF YOUR LIFE

SO WHY DO YOU HAVE
TO UNDERSTAND THEM?

I'M A WRITER SO I LIKE
TO TRY TO UNDERSTAND

HUMAN BEHAVIOR.

SHE'S AN EXTREMELY
TALENTED GIRL.

AND MORE THAN THAT,
SHE'S APPROACHING

THE TIME WHEN SHE
REALLY IS GOING TO NEED

ALL THE SUPPORT NECESSARY
TO MAKE A DECISION

TO HAVE A CAREER
AND NOT TO DO THIS

MICKEY MOUSE BUSINESS
SHE'S BEEN DOING.

THE LITTLE
VOICES ARE GREAT,

SHE'S MAKING ABOUT
A GRAND A WEEK.

WHEN I TALK TO
A MAN, LIKE YOU,

IF YOU'RE NICE TO ME OR
YOU GIVE ME SOMETHING

I WANT TO GIVE YOU
SOMETHING BACK

BUT IT'S GOING TO BE
A PAT ON THE BACK

OR A BOOK OR A BEER
OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

WHEN A GIRL
IS NICE TO ME

I WANT TO GIVE
A KISS, OR SEX.

THAT'S THE WAY I
LEARNED HOW TO PAY BACK.

IT'S A NERVOUS
REACTION.

KISSING SOMEBODY'S
A NERVOUS REACTION?

IN A WAY.

I DON'T KNOW
THE WORD FOR IT.

IT'S A
CONFUSION.

WHERE DO
THINGS GO FURTHER?

HOW DO YOU
GET CLOSER?

WHEN DO YOU
STOP TALKING?

WHEN DO YOU
KEEP TALKING?

I SEE.

DO YOU SEE?

YOU STILL THINK
IT'S BULLSHIT.

I CAN TELL
BECAUSE...

YEAH, A
LITTLE BIT.

YOU MAY THINK
IT'S REAL,

YOU MAY BE IN MORE
TROUBLE THAN I REALIZED.

WHAT DO YOU DO?

I WRITE TOO.

YOU WRITE TOO?
WHAT DO YOU WRITE?

I'VE WRITTEN POETRY
AND I WRITE FICTION.

SENSITIVE POETRY YOU
CAN GIVE TO WOMEN?

AS SEDUCTION?
POETRY SEDUCTION?

YOU'VE DONE YOUR SHARE
OF POETRY SEDUCTION,

HAVEN'T YOU?

IT HAS BEEN
USED, YES.

WHAT? DON'T
GIVE ME BULLSHIT.

YOU'RE GIVING THEN
YOU'RE WITHHOLDING.

WHAT IS THAT?

IT WAS A LINE, IT
WAS A SEDUCTION.

"BEST POEMS ARE
IN THE BARROOMS".

WHO WERE
YOU SEDUCING

WHEN YOU WERE
GIVING ME THAT LINE?

YOU.

I THOUGHT YOU
DON'T SEDUCE MEN.

IN A
DIFFERENT WAY.

HOW?

WITHOUT THE KISS.

YUP.

I GOTTA SHOW
YOU THIS.

OKAY, LET'S SEE.

THAT'S MY
WISH PICTURE.

IT'S A NICE
PICTURE.

THAT'S WHAT I
WANT TO LOOK LIKE

WITH MY OWN CHILD
IN A YEAR AND A HALF.

IN A YEAR
AND A HALF?

WELL, THAT BABY'S
ABOUT SIX MONTHS OLD,

SO A YEAR AND
A HALF, YEAH.

I NEED YOUR SUPPORT
AS MY BIG BROTHER

IF I'M GOING
TO DO THIS.

YOU DIDN'T
TELL ME...

YOU'VE GOT
A BOYFRIEND?

NO. I'M GOING TO
DO IT ON MY OWN.

LET ME SEE IF
I GOT THIS.

TELL ME IF I
GOT THIS, OKAY?

YOU'RE ANGRY AT THEM
BECAUSE THEY DON'T SEE

WHO YOU REALLY ARE
UNDERNEATH THEREFORE

YOU DON'T SHOW THEM
WHO YOU ARE UNDERNEATH

AS A PUNISHMENT
AGAINST THEM

NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE
WHO YOU ARE UNDERNEATH.

SOMETHING LIKE THAT BUT
NOT THAT CHRONOLOGICAL.

TELL ME ABOUT
YOUR MOTHER.

TELL YOU ABOUT
MY MOTHER?

TELL ME ABOUT
YOUR MOTHER.

TELL ME ABOUT
YOUR RELATIONSHIP

WITH YOUR
MOTHER.

THIS MUST START
WITH YOUR MOTHER, NO?

SURE,
DOESN'T YOURS?

WE'RE NOT
TALKING ABOUT ME.

I KNOW AND IT'S
BOTHERING ME

THAT WE'RE NOT
TALKING ABOUT YOU.

YOU WANT TO
TALK ABOUT ME?

WE'LL TALK
ABOUT ME NEXT.

YOU REALLY WANT TO TALK
ABOUT YOU, DON'T YOU?

TELL THE TRUTH.

SURE.

OKAY, WE BOTH WANT
TO TALK ABOUT YOU

SO WE'RE
IN AGREEMENT.

TELL ME ABOUT
YOUR MOTHER.

I CAN'T
WAIT ANYMORE.

I GOTTA DO IT. I
JUST HAVE TO DO IT.

THE RELATIONSHIPS
AREN'T WORKING OUT AND

I CAN'T WAIT AROUND FOR
ONE TO TRY TO HAPPEN.

I'M GOING TO
DO IT ALONE.

I GOTTA
BE A MOM.

MY MOTHER'S VERY
OVERPROTECTIVE.

SHE'S STILL VERY
MUCH IN MY LIFE

WHICH IS
A PROBLEM.

I'M NOT ABLE TO MAKE THE
TRANSITION FROM BEING

AN ADOLESCENT OR
SOMEBODY WHO'S SHELTERED

BY THEIR MOTHER INTO
A RELATIONSHIP WHERE

I CAN TREAT HER AS A
FRIEND OR AS AN ADULT.

AND WE'RE BOTH GUILTY OF
NOT BEING ABLE TO DO THIS

AND IT SEEMS TO ME
THAT IT'S FUCKING UP

MY RELATIONSHIPS
WITH WOMEN.

NOWADAYS MOST FAMILIES
DIVORCE AND THERE'S

SINGLE PARENTS
WITH A LOT OF STRIFE.

THIS WAY IT WOULD
BE A SINGLE PARENT

FROM THE
BEGINNING.

WITHOUT THE DIVORCE AND
THE MESS IN THE MIDDLE.

DON'T FORGET WHAT
HAPPENED TO US.

MAMA LEFT
WHEN I WAS TEN.

THAT WASN'T FAIR.

PAPA WAS NOT
A GOOD MOTHER.

THAT'S WHY I'M
SUCH A GOOD MOTHER.

I HAD TO TAKE
UP THE SLACK.

AND WE DID OKAY.

WE COULD HAVE
DONE BETTER MAYBE

IF SHE'D
BEEN AROUND.

MAYBE THIS CHILD
SHOULD HAVE A REAL FATHER

INSTEAD OF SOME
KIND OF MYSTERY MAN.

HE'LL HAVE HIS
UNCLE MARLIN.

YEAH?

ARE YOU SEDUCTIVE
WITH YOUR MOTHER?

I IMAGINE
I AM, YEAH.

IS SHE SEDUCTIVE
WITH YOU?

I THINK SO,
PROBABLY.

I THINK THAT ALL
SONS ARE SEDUCTIVE

WITH THEIR MOTHERS
AND VICE VERSA.

ARE YOU DARK
WITH YOUR MOTHER?

YES. I SHOW HER
ONLY THAT SIDE.

YOU ONLY SHOW
HER THE DARK SIDE?

HOW DOES
SHE RESPOND?

I GUESS SHE
APPROVES OF IT.

I GUESS THAT'S
PART OF IT.

MY MOTHER READS
DARKNESS AS DEPTH.

IF YOU'RE DOWN,
IF YOU'RE BROODING,

IT'S PERHAPS
A PROFUNDITY.

BROODING, AT LEAST
SHE'LL GIVE ME THE

BENEFIT OF THE
DOUBT, YOU KNOW.

MY SPIRITUAL TEACHER
TOLD ME THAT I CAN

EITHER BE IN LOVE
OR I CAN BE IN FEAR.

AND WHICH IS IT?

WELL, RIGHT
NOW I'M IN FEAR.

YOU KNOW WHEN
YOU SEE SOMEBODY

BREAKING A CEMENT
BRICK WITH THEIR HAND?

THEY THINK RIGHT
THROUGH THE PAIN.

SO YOU HAVE TO DO
EXACTLY THE SAME THING.

IT'LL WORK OUT BUT
YOU HAVE TO HAVE

CONFIDENCE ENOUGH
TO GET THROUGH IT ALL.

AND TONIGHT YOU
SHOULD ENJOY YOURSELF,

IT'S A PARTY.

TAKE A DRINK, SEE
ME IN THE MORNING.

I MEET PEOPLE, I MEET
PEOPLE ON THE STREET.

YOU MEAN IF I STOPPED
YOU ON THE STREET

YOU WOULD
TALK TO ME?

I MIGHT.

I DID IN 1983 ON 57TH
STREET AND THEN I WENT

TO EUROPE, HE SENT ME
A ROUND-TRIP TICKET.

YOU KNOW WHAT I'M ALSO
GOING TO GET RID OF?

CALL WAITING.

CALL WAITING?

YEAH.

WHY?

IT'S A
DEPENDENCY.

IT PUTS MY LIFE
INTO DIFFERENT, LIKE,

STRANGE
PRIORITIES.

BUT WHAT IF YOU HAVE
AN IMPORTANT CALL?

THERE'S NO SUCH THING
AS AN IMPORTANT CALL.

WHY DID YOU
GET ME HERE?

BECAUSE I DON'T
WANT YOU TO BE ANGRY.

I WOULDN'T HAVE DONE
ANYTHING IF YOU HADN'T

TOLD ME THE TWO OF
YOU WEREN'T TOGETHER.

COME ON, MARJORIE,
GIVE ME A BREAK.

YOU KNOW HOW LONG WILLIAM
AND I HAVE BEEN TOGETHER

AND HOW LONG
WE HAVEN'T.

IT'S A TOTALLY
USELESS ARGUMENT.

WHAT DO
YOU MEAN?

IT'S ABSURD. HOW COULD
YOU DO THIS TO ME?

YOU'RE SUPPOSED
TO BE MY FRIEND!

I AM
YOUR FRIEND.

YOU HAVE A VERY NICE
WAY OF SHOWING IT.

I NEED MORE
FRIENDS LIKE YOU.

YOU KNOW WHO YOU
LOOK LIKE, DON'T YOU?

LOUISE BROOKS?

THE SILENT FILM
STAR, LOUISE BROOKS.

YOU LOOK
JUST LIKE HER.

DO I?

YOU WERE BORN ABOUT
50 YEARS TOO LATE.

BUT FOR ME
IT'S PERFECT.

JUST FORGET
IT, OKAY?

IT'S OVER, IT
WON'T HAPPEN.

WHAT I CAME
HERE TO DO

IS TO GIVE YOU
A WISH BRACELET.

KEEP YOUR FUCKING WISH
BRACELET, MY DARLING,

OR GIVE IT TO SOMEBODY
THAT YOU CARE ABOUT.

THE TWO OF YOU TOGETHER
IS LIKE THE ODD COUPLE,

YOU KNOW?

I MEAN, HOW DID YOU
MEET THIS DOCTOR?

I DON'T CARE
ABOUT SEX!

THAT'S JUST IT THAT YOU
DON'T CARE ABOUT SEX!

I'M NOT
INTERESTED IN SEX.

I KNOW, WHY DO YOU
THINK I'M INTERESTED

IN DOING THERAPY
WITH YOU?

BECAUSE I'LL HAVE
THE PLEASURE OF

SEEING YOU
APPRECIATE SEX.

I DON'T WANT
SEX NOW!

I'LL SEE YOU
COMPLETELY CURED

AND I'LL GO ON WITH
ANOTHER CASE OF MINE.

YOU'LL HAVE SEX WITH
ME THEN LEAVE ME?

YOU'LL
ABANDON ME?

I ANSWERED A
PERSONAL AD...

HE PUT OUT
A PERSONAL?

YES, HE DID AND
I ANSWERED IT.

IT WOULD IMMEDIATELY
SOLVE YOUR PROBLEMS,

IT'S NOT THOSE
DRAWN OUT,

NONSENSICAL
INTROSPECTIVE THERAPIES.

QUICK DIRECT
ACTION THERAPY.

HOW LONG
WOULD IT TAKE?

I'M TAKING AN AD
OUT TOMORROW,

ARE YOU SERIOUS?

LOOK, I DON'T WANT
TO JERK YOU AROUND.

I DELIVER
THE GROCERIES.

I WORK FOR THEIR
GROCERY STORE.

DID YOU BRING
A RUBBER?

A WHAT?

ANTHONY, DON'T
BULLSHIT ME.

DID YOU BRING
A RUBBER?

DID I BRING
A RUBBER?

IS THERE AN
ECHO IN HERE?

UH, NO, I DIDN'T
BRING A RUBBER.

ARE YOU
KIDDING?

SO WE'LL STOP
ON THE WAY HOME.

YOU'RE GOING
HOME WITH ME?

WE DEFINITELY DO HAVE
AN ECHO IN HERE. YEAH.

I'M JUST NOT
USED TO SOMEONE

BEING THAT FORWARD
WITH ME, YOU KNOW?

DIDN'T I ASK WHAT
YOU'RE DOING AFTER THIS?

HANG OUT AND HAVE A
DRINK OR SOMETHING.

A LITERATE,
INTELLIGENT-

ILLITERATE?

OH, A LITERATE
GENTLEMAN.

INTELLIGENT,
CULTURED...

THAT'S ME.

GENTLE...

THAT'S ME.

GEE WHIZ, I COULD
TAKE AN AD OUT.

COME ON, START THE NEW
YEAR'S OFF WITH A POP.

YOU SERIOUS?

OH, HI DR.
STADTHAGEN.

I SEE YOU
KNOW MY NAME.

AS A MATTER OF
FACT I HEARD MY NAME

BEING
MENTIONED.

I AM FASCINATED BY THE
STORY OF HOW YOU MET.

WHAT? AND YOU
ALWAYS TELL ME

NOT TO TELL
PEOPLE ABOUT IT?

IT'S A
GREAT STORY.

DO YOU REALIZE HOW
VALUABLE YOU ARE TO ME?

WHY DO YOU THINK I'M
PAYING WHAT I PAY YOU?

I KNOW I'M
VALUABLE TO YOU.

SOME PEOPLE ARE VERY
ASHAMED TO ADMIT IT.

I MET ONE MAN THROUGH THE
PERSONALS WHO ONLY AGREED

TO MEET ME IN A PLACE
WHERE THEN HE COULD SAY

AFTERWARDS IF ANYBODY
ASKED US WHERE WE MET

WE WOULD SAY WE MET AT THE
CARNEGIE HALL BOX OFFICE

BUYING TICKETS.

YOU'RE A LOVELY
WOMAN, YOU KNOW THAT?

HAD YOU EVER
DONE THIS BEFORE?

OH, YES, I'VE DONE THIS
BEFORE BUT I DON'T HAVE

AN ORDINARY
REASON FOR DOING IT.

YOU EXCITE THE
HELL OUT OF ME.

I DO? REALLY?

I LOOK FORWARD TO
COMING TO WORK.

REALLY?

I HAVE FANTASIES
THAT MAYBE

WE'LL HAVE
AN AFFAIR.

REALLY?

WHAT DO YOU
THINK ABOUT IT?

WHY DO YOU SAY IT'S NOT
THE ORDINARY REASON

FOR MEETING
PEOPLE?

YOU WANT TO MEET PEOPLE
BECAUSE YOU'RE LONELY.

WE WANT TO MEET PEOPLE
BECAUSE WE'RE LONELY.

I'M SURPRISED THAT
YOU DON'T KNOW ME

WELL ENOUGH...

TO KEEP THIS ILLUSION
ABOUT MY BEING LONELY-

I'M NOT LONELY
IN THE LEAST.

YOU'RE
NEVER LONELY?

LET ME FEEL YOUR HAND.
DOES BLOOD RUN THERE?

I LIKE YOU, I THINK
YOU'RE A VERY NICE PERSON

AND I DON'T WANT TO
HURT YOUR FEELINGS.

LOOK, YOU'VE
GOT THE JOB

WHETHER YOU HAVE AN
AFFAIR WITH ME OR NOT.

I COULDN'T POSSIBLY
HAVE AN AFFAIR WITH YOU.

I DON'T HAVE
AFFAIRS WITH MEN.

I BELIEVE, COMPLETELY
CONTRARY TO THE CLASSICAL

PSYCHOANALYTIC
POINT OF VIEW,

THAT YOU DON'T DETACH
YOURSELF FROM PEOPLE

BUT THAT YOU ATTACH
YOURSELF VERY MUCH

TO THE PEOPLE
YOU GIVE THERAPY TO.

NOT LIKE THESE FALSE
PSYCHIATRISTS WHO GAIN

CONTROL OVER PEOPLE AND
THEN HAVE SEX WITH THEM,

SO I HAVE SEX
WITH THE WOMEN FIRST

AND IF THEY'RE SUITABLE
I HAVE THERAPY WITH THEM.

YOU LIKE KIDS?

KIDS? YEAH,
I SUPPOSE. YEAH.

YOU WANT
THEM SOMETIME?

YEAH, I
DEFINITELY DO.

DEFINITELY?

I NEED TO PUT IN
THESE ADS, I NEED TO

CONTINUE TO HAVE SEX
WITH THESE WOMEN.

YES, BUT YOU
DON'T KNOW WHY.

IT HAS NOTHING TO DO
WITH MY WANTING TO

HAVE SEX WITH THEM,
IT HAS NOTHING TO DO

WITH ANYTHING
EMOTIONAL OR PHYSICAL.

IT HAS TO DO
WITH THE FACT THAT

THAT HAS TO BE
GOTTEN OVER WITH

SO THERE'S NOTHING
INTERFERING WITH

THE THERAPY
WORKING PROPERLY.

BUT YOUR HEART. ..

WHY ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT
IRRELEVANT SUBJECTS?

I'M TALKING ABOUT A
RATIONAL SYSTEM I HAVE.

THAT'S RIGHT, RATIONAL
SYSTEM, ALL UP HERE.

THE IDEA IS TO GET THIS
GOING A BIT MORE TOO,

YOU KNOW?

YOU'RE IN A VERY PRIMITIVE
AND CHILDISH WAY JEALOUS,

AND THAT'S
SO PREPOSTEROUS

EVEN TO THINK
YOU'D BE JEALOUS.

I AM JEALOUS, BUT
THERE'S NOTHING

WRONG WITH
BEING JEALOUS.

I'M A
PASSIONATE WOMAN,

THERE'S NOTHING WRONG
WITH BEING JEALOUS!

HOW TALL
ARE YOU?

6'1" WHY?

I'M SIX FOOT, I CAN
NEVER FIND ANYBODY

TALL ENOUGH SO
THAT'S ENCOURAGING.

TALL ENOUGH?

YEAH.

SO YOU MAKE
A RESOLUTION?

WELL, YOU KNOW, WHAT
I WANT FOR THIS YEAR

AND FOR EVERY
YEAR FROM NOW ON IS

I WANT GOD TO STOP
SAYING "NOT YET".

HE SAYS
THIS TO YOU?

HOW OLD
ARE YOU?

TWENTY-THREE.

TWENTY-THREE?
YOUNG.

I GUESS.

NO, IT'S YOUNG.
BELIEVE ME.

YEAH, IT IS.

YOU'RE
REALLY CUTE.

DO YOU EVER GO OUT
WITH OLDER WOMEN?

YEAH, I DO.

WOULD YOU LIKE TO
GO OUT WITH ME?

IT WOULD BE A NEW
EXPERIENCE FOR ME

BECAUSE I ALWAYS GO
OUT WITH OLDER MEN.

YEAH? REALLY?
WHEN?

IT REALLY DEPENDS, UM,
LET ME LOOK AT MY BOOK.

I DON'T HAVE
A LOT OF TIME.

WHAT'S YOUR WISH
FOR THE NEW YEAR?

I WANT TO GET BACK
INTO TELEVISION.

I LEFT TOO SOON.

FEES STARTED GOING
UP ASTRONOMICALLY

AFTER I LEFT.

ALL MY FRIENDS
ARE RICHER THAN ME

'CAUSE THEY
STAYED IN TELEVISION.

IF I GET BACK INTO
TELEVISION I CAN MAKE

ENOUGH MONEY TO NOT
WORRY ABOUT DOING TV.

WANT TO SING ME A
LULLABY ONE LAST TIME?

(SINGING SOFTLY)

(SINGING SOFTLY)

WHAT ARE YOU
DOING IN MY ROOM?

WHAT ARE YOU
DOING IN MY ROOM?

I JUST DIDN'T WANT TO
BE OUT THERE ANYMORE.

ALL THE STUFF
GOING ON OUT THERE.

WHAT DO
YOU MEAN?

YOUR FRIENDS ARE
TOTALLY INSANE.

EVERYBODY SEEMS
NUTS OUT THERE.

SOMETHING DEPRESSING
ABOUT IT TOO,

I DON'T KNOW
WHAT THAT IS.

SOMETHING MADE ME
MOODY AND WEIRD.

WHY IS IT GETTING
YOU MOODY AND WEIRD?

I DON'T KNOW WHY
YOU'RE SUSCEPTIBLE

TO SOME
OF THEM.

ONE OF THEM.

WHY DOES THAT
GET YOU MOODY?

I DON'T KNOW.
MAYBE 'CAUSE I THINK

YOU'RE WORTH
MORE THAN THAT.

THANK YOU.

WHAT DID YOU
COME HERE FOR?

ESCAPE.

I SHOULD
ESCAPE, HUH?

IS THIS WHERE I
SHOULD ESCAPE TO?

THIS IS PRETTY
NICE. HI.

SO WHY ARE YOU
SUSCEPTIBLE TO THIS GUY

YOU'RE
SUSCEPTIBLE TO?

I DON'T KNOW.
I JUST AM.

YOU ARE, HUH?

NOT SO
MUCH ANYMORE.

REALLY. I'M OKAY.

WHAT DID YOU WANT
TO TALK TO ME ABOUT?

HENRY THE BEAR.

THE BEAR OR
THE MALLARD?

THE MALLARD.

THERE YOU GO.

WHAT?

THIS DAY'S BEEN WEIRD FOR
ME, I'LL TELL YOU THAT.

WHY?

WELL, I THOUGHT I
HAD FORGOTTEN CERTAIN

FEELINGS THAT I THOUGHT
I WAS NEVER GOING TO

FEEL AGAIN, AND THEN I
BEGIN TO THINK PERHAPS

I CAN FEEL SOME OF
THOSE FEELINGS AGAIN.

NOT THAT I'M FEELING
THOSE FEELINGS ABOUT YOU,

BUT IT'S
FEELING STUFF.

AS I'M NEVER GOING TO
SEE YOU AGAIN I WANTED TO

TELL YOU THAT I FIND YOU
VERY SEXUALLY ATTRACTIVE,

THAT I GET ALL KINDS
OF FEELINGS AROUND YOU.

I ALWAYS HAVE.

I FEEL THAT
WAY ABOUT YOU.

YEAH?

YOU HAPPEN TO BE THE
SOURCE TO WHICH THIS

STUFF IS DIRECTED BUT
IT IS NOT ABOUT YOU.

I KNOW IT'S NOT
ABOUT YOU AND

YOU KNOW I KNOW
IT'S NOT ABOUT YOU.

SO IT'S STILL VERY
NICE TO BE REMINDED

THAT ONE CAN
FEEL CERTAIN STUFF.

EVEN IF IT'S TOWARD A
WEIRD BABY LIKE YOU.

THE REASON I NEVER DID
ANYTHING IS BECAUSE LUCY-

THAT WOULD
BE STUPID.

I NEVER SHIT WHERE
I EAT, YOU KNOW?

I WAS ALWAYS
TAUGHT THAT.

SO YOU DON'T HAVE
A REAL GOOD SENSE

OF WHAT
YOU'RE WORTH?

MAYBE NOT.

I CAN TELL YOU
IT STRIKES ME THAT

YOU'RE WORTH
A GREAT DEAL.

A REALLY GREAT DEAL AND
IT SEEMS INSANE TO ME

THAT YOU DON'T GO FOR
SOMEBODY WHO KNOWS

HOW MUCH
YOU'RE WORTH.

THAT THAT DOESN'T
GET REINFORCED IN

ANY KIND OF RELATIONSHIP
YOU SHOULD HAVE.

WELL, SOON.

SOON?

YEAH.

MAYBE NOW.

MAYBE NOW? WHAT
DOES THAT MEAN?

WHEN I WAS A LITTLE
GIRL I HAD THESE SAME

KIND OF FEELINGS
ABOUT MY FATHER.

THAT YOU
HAVE FOR ME?

ONLY I WAS
A CHILD.

BUT I KNEW THAT HE
DIDN'T LIKE MY MOTHER

SO I GREW UP WITH
THIS SENSE OF SHAME.

WHAT ABOUT?

LIKING HIM
THAT WAY.

SEXUALLY?

YOU LIKED YOUR
FATHER SEXUALLY?

SO MAYBE IT'S JUST BETTER
TO GET MY OWN APARTMENT

AND NOT HAVE TO BE AROUND
ALL THESE MEN ANYMORE

AND DEAL WITH
ALL THIS STUFF.

AND FEEL
ASHAMED.

I FEEL THAT
WAY TOO.

YOU DO?

A LOT, YEAH.
ABOUT SEX.

THERE'S SOMETHING
EVEN IN THE BEGINNING

OF IT, I ALREADY
FEEL ASHAMED OF

WHAT HASN'T HAPPENED
YET SOMETIMES.

I'M SORRY. I
CAN'T DO THIS.

YOU SURE?

I CAN'T. I'M SORRY
I REALLY CAN'T.

OF COURSE
YOU CAN.

NO, I CAN'T.

YOU DON'T GET IT,
I REALLY CAN'T.

NO ONE'S EVER
MADE ME FEEL

SEXUALLY
DESIRABLE BEFORE.

I GET THESE
FEELINGS AROUND YOU.

THEY'RE
VERY STRONG.

I HOPE IT'S NOT BECAUSE
YOU'RE LUCY'S BOYFRIEND.

NO. SIT HERE
FOR A SECOND.

COME ON.

COME ON,
SERIOUSLY.

DREW, I
CAN'T DO THIS.

WILL YOU PLEASE GIVE
ME ONE MORE MOMENT?

I'M SERIOUS.

ONE MOMENT
MEANS ONE MOMENT,

IT DOESN'T MEAN
ONE SECOND.

THAT'S ALL
THE TIME I GOT.

WAIT A MINUTE.

I'M SORRY.

IT WAS GREAT.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
MADE ME DO THIS.

I REALLY DON'T.

THAT'S OKAY.

OKAY?

YEAH.

SHHH. DON'T GET
NERVOUS, IT'S OKAY.

I SHOULDN'T
HAVE DONE THIS.

I JUST MET YOU AND I
HAD TOO MUCH TO DRINK

AND I'M
REALLY SORRY.

SHH SHH,
IT'S OKAY.

IT'S GOOD
FOR ME.

I'M SORRY.

WHAT DO
YOU THINK?

MAYBE.

WANT TO SIT
DOWN HERE?

I'LL MOVE OVER.

OH, HERE WE GO.

HERE WE GO.

BUT I REALLY-
THIS IS WRONG.

WHAT ARE
YOU DOING?

I SWEAR TO GOD, YOU
MUST THINK I'M CRAZY.

DO YOU REALIZE
THE INCREDIBLE PAIN

MY ARM IS IN?

I'M SORRY, LET
ME FIX YOUR ARM.

WHAT IS- ARE WE
TALKING ABOUT A KISS?

WHAT ARE WE
TALKING ABOUT?

A KISS.

A KISS THAT
YOU GOT ALREADY?

I'M SORRY I SHOULDN'T
HAVE GIVEN YOU.

WHAT IS THIS?

YOU MAKE ME FEEL
LIKE I'M 18 YEARS OLD.

I DON'T MEAN TO.

IT'S BOTH A GOOD
AND A BAD THING.

THIS PART OF IT WASN'T
BAD, I DON'T WANT TO

GO BACK TO THIS
PART OF BEING 18.

SO FORGET THIS
EVER HAPPENED, OKAY?

I'VE GOT THESE
SENSATIONS ALONG-

AH! FORGET THIS
EVER HAPPENED.

I DIDN'T COME IN HERE,
I DIDN'T DO THIS,

AND I HAVE A LOAD
OF PEOPLE OUT THERE

I HAVE TO GO
DEAL WITH.

I THOUGHT THERE
WAS NOBODY IN HERE.

I THOUGHT I WAS
COMING INTO MY ROOM

AND HERE YOU WERE AND I
DON'T KNOW WHY I DID THAT.

BECAUSE YOU'RE A
BABY, AREN'T YOU?

I'M A TOTAL
FOUR-YEAR-OLD.

OKAY, ALRIGHT.

LET ME JUST
HOLD YOU THEN.

OKAY, HOLD ME.
ONE MINUTE.

ONE MINUTE.

A MINUTE
AND A HALF.

THEN I HAVE MANY
PEOPLE I HAVE TO-

SHH, OKAY.

OH, MY GOD, I
FELL ASLEEP.

SHH.

I GOTTA GO.

WHY?

I'VE GOTTA GO
OUT THERE. OKAY?

OKAY.

YOU SLEEP.

OH, GOD.

GET OUT OF
MY HOUSE.

GET OUT!

I WANT YOU OUT.

HOLD ON
A SECOND.

OUT!

COME HERE. JUST
WAIT, COME HERE.

OUT, DAMMIT!

GET OUT!

LUCY, YOU
DON'T UNDERSTAND.

THERE'S AN
EXPLANATION.

WHAT IS THE
EXPLANATION?

I DON'T WANT
TO HEAR IT.

JUST GET OUT!

I'M NAKED, DON'T
THROW ME OUT LIKE THIS!

IT'S COLD OUT
THERE, COME ON!

LUCY!

JUST GIVE ME
MY PANTS!

PLEASE, LUCY.

LUCY?

JUST GIVE ME MY
PANTS AND I'LL LEAVE.

LUCY?

I LOVE YOU.

COME ON.

I CAN'T BELIEVE
YOU KICKED ME OUT.

PLEASE GIVE ME MY
PANTS, ALRIGHT?

COME ON, GIVE
ME MY PANTS!

ANNIE, OPEN
THE DOOR!

LET ME IN, I WANT
TO TALK TO YOU!

ANNIE, PLEASE? I'M
NOT GONNA HURT YOU,

I JUST WANT TO
TALK TO YOU!

DON'T DO THIS!

I WANT TO TALK TO YOU!
I WANT TO TALK TO YOU!

WHAT'S GOING ON?

OPEN THE DOOR!

ANNIE, PLEASE!

COME ON!

WHAT IS IT?

ANNIE, WHAT
ARE YOU DOING?

WHAT'S THE
MATTER WITH YOU?

WHAT'S GOING ON?

COFFEE, GO
GET COFFEE!

IT'S IN
THE KITCHEN.

ANNIE, WHAT
DID YOU DO?

WHAT DID
YOU DO?

I DID NOTHING.

WHAT DID YOU DO,
DAMMIT, WHAT DID YOU DO?

I JUST TOOK
A FEW PILLS.

WHAT DID YOU TAKE?

I DON'T KNOW.

WHAT DOES
THAT MEAN?

WHAT KIND
OF PILLS?

I DON'T EVEN
KNOW WHAT I TOOK.

WHAT ARE WE
SUPPOSED TO DO?

YOU WANT ME TO
CALL A DOCTOR?

DO YOU WANT TO GET
UP AND THROW UP?

I DON'T WANT
TO DO ANYTHING,

I JUST WANT
TO CALM DOWN.

YOU CAN'T
CALM DOWN!

WHAT DID
YOU TAKE?

WHAT DID YOU TAKE,
DAMMIT, TALK TO ME!

I JUST WANT TO
NOT BE DEPRESSED.

FINE, ANNIE, WE'LL GET
YOU TO NOT BE DEPRESSED

BUT YOU HAVE
TO GET UP!

YOU GOTTA GET
UP, DAMMIT!

GET UP!

PLEASE GET UP!

ANNIE,
PLEASE GET UP!

I WANT YOU TO DRINK SOME
COFFEE AND WALK AROUND.

GET UP!

HOW MANY PILLS? I
NEED TO KNOW, DAMMIT!

I NEED TO KNOW!

WHY DID YOU
FUCK BILLY?

WHY DID YOU
FUCK BILLY? WHY?

I'M SO TIRED.

WHY WOULD YOU FUCK
HIM? PLEASE TELL ME.

WHAT ARE
YOU DOING?

AT LEAST KISS ME.

WHAT DO YOU
MEAN KISS YOU?

JUST ONCE?

ANNIE, WHAT'S THE
MATTER WITH YOU?

JUST KISS ME.

WHAT DO
YOU MEAN?

DON'T ASK ME
TO KISS YOU.

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

WHY ARE YOU
DOING THIS?

PLEASE, LUCE...

ANNIE...

WHAT IS THE
MATTER WITH YOU?

WHY ARE YOU
DOING THIS?

PLEASE EXPLAIN
THIS TO ME

BECAUSE I
DON'T UNDERSTAND.

I'M JUST SO
MISERABLE.

WHAT IS
THE MATTER?

YOU'VE GOTTA TALK TO ME,
I CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS!

I CAN'T STAND THE FACT
THAT YOU'RE LEAVING.

I DON'T CARE
ABOUT BILLY.

IT WAS LIKE BEING
YOU WITH BILLY.

IT WAS A WAY OF
GETTING CLOSE TO YOU,

BEING WITH BILLY.

YOU DON'T KNOW THAT
I'M IN LOVE WITH YOU?

ALL THE LAST FOUR YEARS,
YOU DON'T GET THAT?

YOU NEVER EVEN
THOUGHT ABOUT

THAT'S MAYBE
WHAT WAS WRONG?

I JUST CARE ABOUT
YOU AND IT JUST HURTS.

IT REALLY HURTS TO BE
SO MUCH IN LOVE WITH YOU

AND HAVE YOU
GOING AWAY.

I MEAN, IT DIDN'T MATTER
BEFORE WHEN YOU WERE HERE

AND WE COULD BE
TOGETHER ALL THE TIME.

I JUST DON'T
FEEL CONNECTED

TO ANYONE
ELSE BUT YOU.

I MEAN, NO ONE.

I JUST DON'T
WANT TO LOSE THAT.

PLEASE, JUST
PLEASE UNDERSTAND.

PLEASE,
LUCE. HMM?

LET ME KISS YOU
ONCE BEFORE YOU LEAVE.

IT WOULD MAKE
ME FEEL BETTER.

HUH? YEAH?

COME ON, A
REAL KISS.

A REAL KISS?

ANNIE?

JUST ONCE,
BE FUN.

COME ON,
COME ON.

I LOVE YOU TOO,
ANNIE. I DO.

WHAT HAPPENED
TO WINONA?

SHE LEFT WITH
THAT GUY.

WHAT GUY?

I DON'T KNOW, I
THOUGHT YOU KNEW HIM.

YOU'RE GONNA
BE OKAY, HUH?

IS SHE GONNA
BE OKAY?

SHE IS GONNA
BE OKAY.

THERE WERE ONLY A FEW
PILLS LEFT IN THAT BOTTLE

AND SHE TOOK THEM.

HOW MANY?

JUST A COUPLE
ACTUALLY.

I THOUGHT SHE'D DONE
SOMETHING STUPID BUT-

IT WAS A
WHOLE BOTTLE.

NO, THERE WERE
JUST A FEW LEFT,

IT'S BEEN AROUND
THE HOUSE FOREVER.

SHE'S ALRIGHT.
SHE'S RESTING.

SHE DOESN'T HAVE TO GO TO
A HOSPITAL OR ANYTHING?

NO, SHE'S FINE.

WHAT A DAY.

WHAT ARE YOU
GOING TO DO?

I'M GOING TO GO TO LA AND
FIND A PLACE TO LIVE AND-

FIND A PLACE
TO LIVE?

YOU DON'T HAVE A
PLACE TO LIVE?

NOT YET.

WHERE ARE YOU
GOING TO STAY?

I DON'T KNOW, I'LL FIND
AN APARTMENT SOMEWHERE.

WHY DON'T YOU
STAY AT MY HOUSE?

WHAT IS IT?

THE KEYS TO
MY HOUSE.

STAY IN MY HOUSE.

REALLY?

YEAH, I REALLY
WOULD LIKE THAT.

ARE YOU SURE?

SURE, I'M SURE.

THEN I'LL KNOW
WHERE YOU ARE.

AND YOU'LL
KNOW WHERE I AM.

YES, I WILL.

AND YOU'LL CALL?

I WILL CALL.

YOU DON'T
HAVE TO WRITE.

OKAY, GOOD.

YOU KNOW, WHEN
YOU LOOK AT THE LIGHT

OF A STAR IN THE SKY,
WHAT YOU'RE SEEING

ISN'T THE STAR EXISTING
AS IT IS RIGHT NOW.

YOU'RE SEEING SOMETHING
THAT HASN'T EXISTED

FOR MILLIONS AND
MILLIONS OF YEARS.

THE LIGHT FROM THAT STAR
IS COMING TOWARD YOU

FROM THE PAST.

THAT STAR HAS
CEASED TO EXIST

BY THE TIME ITS
LIGHT GETS TO YOU.

YOU'RE SEEING IT
NOW IN YOUR PRESENT

BUT THAT STAR HAS
CEASED TO EXIST

MILLIONS OF YEARS
BEFORE YOU WERE BORN.

AND BY THE SAME TOKEN, IF
SOMEBODY ON ANOTHER STAR,

SOMEWHERE MILLIONS OF
YEARS INTO THE FUTURE

IS LOOKING BACK AT
US WITH A TELESCOPE

POWERFUL
ENOUGH TO SEE US,

THEY COULD SEE US RIGHT
NOW AT THIS VERY MOMENT

BUT WHAT THEY'D
BE SEEING IS THE LIGHT

FROM OUR PRESENT
WHICH IS THEIR FUTURE.

BUT WE'VE BEEN DEAD
FOR MILLIONS OF YEARS.

WE'RE GONE.

AND YET THEY'RE
SEEING US RIGHT NOW.

PAST, PRESENT,
FUTURE...

IT ALL DEPENDS WHAT
STAR YOU'RE STANDING ON.
