Original subtitles

Do you need Anything else, sir?

More bread, perhaps?

Not bread, but I will take Another one of these.

And you don't Have to call me sir.

It kind of creeps me out.

Yes, sir.

Sorry.

I'll be leaving now.

Hello. Did you miss me?

I did,

But the waitress was Totally flirting with me,

So it was all right.

Ooh, that sounds Like fun.

It was, but she's Not really my type.

Good.

What is your type, Exactly?

Generally I tend to prefer The brainy brunettes With brown eyes.

Can I ask you something?

Feel free.

Why did you wait so long To ask me out?

Well, for a while there I was otherwise engaged,

But I've taken care Of that now, I promise.

Thank you.

So without further ado,

I'd like to propose A toast if I may.

You may.

To getting to know Each other better.

much better.

Well, joey, that's not The overriding message.

Yes, it is.

Ultimately, Yossarian must accept

That he's trapped In an insane world.

No, but he escapes in the end, So there's hope.

Hope for what?

Well, the beauty is We don't know,

But his escape is A testament to the power

Of one man's struggle Against the system.

Hetson's interpretation Is much bleaker.

Why does that Not surprise me?

You know, If all you're gonna do On this final exam

Is just regurgitate everything Hetson said in class,

You're not really developing A mind of your own.

I'll develop A mind of my own later.

Right now I have to ace this final.

You remember A certain incident That happened

The last time I took a final For this man?

This isn't happening.

What's wrong?

God is punishing me.

Here. Read this.

After my long And protracted battle

With a serious Substance abuse problem,

The heartless administration Of this esteemed university

Is gonna kick me out!

That seems pretty harsh.

Audrey, this is Just a letter from the dean

Saying if you sign up For summer school You can stay.

The dean can Bite me, jo.

You missed almost An entire semester.

What am I gonna do?

I'm gonna be, like, Alone here in this box All summer.

You leave in 2 days, Right?

Not by choice, but yeah.

Where are you going?

To negotiate.

I don't think This is negotiable.

Everything is negotiable.

Remind me again. You are friends with her Because...

She saved my life once In a bar in calcutta.

Right.

Which brings up An excellent point, Eddie.

We're getting kicked Out of our little Love nest

By week's end.

At which point We're gonna move into my car,

Which I've got parked Down by the river.

That is not the plan.

That's my plan. Oh, yeah?

I thought we were gonna Get jobs in the cape This summer,

And live at my sister's And save money.

Right, and endure Weekly interrogations From your father

About the lack of prospects For my future.

You're starting school In the fall

At one of the most Prestigious writing programs In the country.

Yes, yes, I know. In california.

And if we're gonna be Ripped apart by geography In 3 short months,

I'm not gonna spend that time Bussing tables.

I've got some bigger plans In mind.

And what do these Bigger plans entail?

Oh, no. No, right now You need to focus on one thing,

And one thing only. And after the exam, jo,

All will be revealed.

Well, and what if I can't wait that long?

I think you can.

Maybe I'll just have To use my feminine wiles

To pry it out of you.

My lips are sealed, jo.

Uh-huh.

Nice try.

You officially suck.

Yeah, yeah, you know, I'm pretty sure

You don't want to mix Mountain dew with nodoz.

Why? Because They both contain A lot of caffeine, and--

Yeah, yeah, that Queens of the stone age Album does really rock.

It's one--

Um, first thing You need to do is Take a deep breath.

Good. Now, find somebody In your class,

Borrow their notes, And--

Ok, yes, yes.

We're here 24/7. You can call back Anytime. Ok?

All right. Good luck.

Rough day?

Yeah, exams bring out The worst in people.

The important thing is You talked him down

From mountain dew And nodoz.

That can be A deadly combination.

Yeah, I've done A real service To humanity.

Did you need something?

So this whole mad thing Hasn't worn off yet, huh?

Speak quickly, jack.

The phone Could ring again At any second,

And the problems of A feckless ex-boyfriend Aren't much

Compared with The suicidal anguish Of graduating seniors.

Can we just stop this, please?

Can we just talk?

At least give me The same chance

You give any random stranger On the end of that phone.

Just meet with me for an hour-- For half an hour, even.

Maybe.

Maybe?

Yes. Maybe.

I need some time To think about it.

Cool. Very cool.

How much time?

I don't know. Look, I'll--I'll call you.

Or--or you know, You could just meet me

Down at hell's kitchen Tonight if you want.

I can't tonight. I have a test tomorrow.

Tomorrow-- Tomorrow's fine.

Like, I don't know-- What? After 8:00?

I'm working until 9:00.

So you're-- You're coming?

I said I would think about it.

Ok.

Listen, I'm busy here, so...

Sure. Yeah. Understood.

Good morning, john.

I had sex with A beautiful woman last night.

Now, this should not Have happened.

She was Way out of my league,

And I even like to think

That I'm a fairly Handsome guy,

But I'm not that handsome,

And I like to think That I'm pretty good in bed,

But I'm not that good.

How does Something like that happen?

I'll tell you.

I'm 20 years old,

And I am doing exactly

What I was put On this earth to do.

I am making money...

Hand over fist...

Faster than I know How to spend it.

And let's tell the truth.

You all came here today

Because you're trying to escape

The miserable Bottom-feeding existence

That you've been living

That has denied you What is rightfully yours.

If you want this For yourselves,

You can have it.

But I'm here to tell you

You will get your asses kicked On a daily basis,

But you will learn.

And ultimately, you will do

What you were Put on this earth to do,

Which is make money.

Now, if any of you are still Interested in this proposition,

Be here 9 a.M. Sharp Monday morning.

If you are late, Do not come into my building.

Turn around, go home,

And prepare yourselves For a life in retail.

I'll see you then.

Hey. How'd it go?

How do you think it went? I learned from the best, Right?

That's sweet. You wanna make out or...

Maybe later. I gotta brush my teeth.

Whoo!

What the hell Is all that about?

That, mr. Witter, Is the sound of blood

Rushing to the nether regions.

Let me guess. The stepatech approval Went through?

Not quite yet, amigo, But that stock is Still climbing.

Ok, good enough.

Why don't you call roger And congratulate him.

Will do, boss.

Ooh, ah, hey...

That date with sadia Last night--

Did you Close the deal?

Why don't you just ask Those guys in there?

Oh, that does it, Witter.

I used to be Mildly impressed.

Now I am in awe.

Nicely done, My friend.

Nicely done.

You know, That's just what she said.

Mmm.

Well, that is definitely One of the better ways To start the day.

Well, I do have A few other tricks Up my sleeve,

But I thought I'd keep it simple.

I didn't want To blow your mind Just yet.

Oh, my god, woman, You are way out of my league.

I know. I know.

Oh. Uh...

Hold on one sec.

Excuse me.

I'm sorry, But today's the day That the fda is ruling

On stepatech's Miracle flu thingie.

Thingie?

How can you be so Excited about something

That you refer to As a thingie?

I know. I'm sorry, but...

I have a lot of money Wrapped up in this thingie.

And this thingie Is gonna buy me a new car.

Maybe even a new house.

Wait a minute. How did someone As young as you

Get to be So career obsessed?

I used to be obsessed About a lot of other things.

Mm-hmm.

Well, mostly girls, really.

And then with this One recent dalliance,

That probably was better Left in the past,

I realized that a career Is actually

A very healthy obsession.

No offense, of course.

None taken.

And it's not like You're my boyfriend Or anything.

I have one of those, And, quite frankly,

They're overrated.

I wholeheartedly concur.

Mm-hmm.

And this other girl? Well, she doesn't know What she's missing.

Well, like I said, She's in a past life,

And I'm quite happy With the life I'm leading.

And as they say, I always have my work.

And then there's me.

And then there's you,

Which is proof positive That there is, in fact, A god,

And that pacey j. Witter Is his favorite son.

What does the "J" Stand for?

Wouldn't you like to know?

Well, if you wanted me To torture you, pacey,

All you had to do Was ask.

Really? Mm-hmm.

So what do you say?

More coffee?

How could I possibly Drink any more coffee?

We've been sitting here Engaged in this pre-test Caffeination

For 2 hours now.

I didn't want you To be late, now, did I?

I seem to recall this is how My academic downfall began In the first place.

Well, if it isn't Bonnie and clyde.

Don't t.A.S usually Monitor these exams?

You've forgotten about My bionic hearing, Mr. Doling.

And believe it or not, I actually enjoy proctoring My own exams.

I mean, I figure if nabokov Had time to do it

While he was teaching At cornell, really,

Who am I To put myself so far Above the little people?

In other words, He derives some Sick pleasure

From watching us Squirm.

I can see over the course Of the last 2 semesters

That you've learned How to read me.

Whether or not you've acquired A similar mastery

Of post-war american literature Really remains to be seen.

You know, I never did Get a chance to thank him

For his recommendation.

And you're Going to do it now?

Yeah. What's the worst That could happen?

I don't know. He could be incredibly Rude and ingracious,

Say something mean And unforgivable,

And you could punch him In the face again.

I'm not gonna punch him In his face again.

What?

You don't think I'm capable of being The bigger person here?

I know that you're The bigger person.

I just think You're underestimating How small he can be.

Well, I refuse to accept that.

Hey, uh...

Professor hetson.

Mr. Doling, How can I help you?

Actually, I-- I kind of thought

Maybe I'd like to, Uh, to thank you,

For, you know, Helping me out With that school thing.

You kinda thought...

Maybe you'd like To thank me?

Your eloquence astounds me.

Yeah, well, I kinda thought maybe I'd like to thank you,

But now that I've heard The tone of your response,

I'm thinking maybe I should just bail On the whole concept.

Well, that is Your specialty, isn't it?

Ok, you two.

Did I not say This was going to happen?

Hey, he started it.

Let me know When you've returned From the third grade.

In the meantime, All he was trying to say Is thank you.

2 simple words.

And I believe The appropriate response Is "You're welcome,"

Maybe "Good luck In future endeavors."

Well, whatever.

Whatever.

I encourage you To accept this "Whatever,"

As I believe this is The best you'll ever do.

Whatever. Great.

My work here is done. Now can you please leave?

Because I fear all of this Spontaneous outpouring Of emotion

Is really throwing me Off my test game.

Whatever.

Great. Good-bye.

All right. Bye.

Dawson leery.

Excellent. Put him right through.

Dawson. What's up, man?

Hey, pace, not much.

Um, listen, I've been thinking.

Let me guess. You're nervous, Right?

Nervous? Who, me?

Thousands of dollars at play In the stock market which,

From what I understand, Can only be described As globally weak?

Nah. Who's nervous?

Ok, well, How about this?

You just trust me,

And I promise That everything Will be all right.

Have I ever Let you down In the past?

Actually, You know what? Don't answer that.

Um, but seriously, I'm not nervous,

I just--I'm thinking It might be time to cash out.

I've got A lot of film to buy, And from what I can understand,

That's gonna be My biggest expense, so...

Ok, dawson, Here's the deal.

I know that you need To make money,

And that you need To make it fast,

So what I've done for you Is invested you

In this biotech company Called stepatech.

They have A miracle flu vaccine

That is up for approval By the fda right now,

And the word On the street Is it's a shoo-in.

So if you can hold on For just a few more days,

I promise you it will be Worth your while.

It'll be like The difference

Between making el mariachi and clerks.

Ok, well, at least That's jargon I understand.

Um...I guess In the spirit of clerks,

I could charge the film.

I've been applying For credit cards like crazy,

And 2 of them Came in the mail today.

I think that's What commonly known As a sign, my friend.

Maybe so. Maybe so.

Ok, so we're Cool here, right?

What--I don't know.

It's all something out of A david mamet movie to me.

I don't know what the hell I'm talking about,

But I trust you.

Keep me posted.

Will do. Talk to you later, man.

I mean, what kind Of a sadist asks for things

Like lolita's married name, Or what day of the week It was

On the first page Of gravity's rainbow?

Well, I don't know, jo. I'd say that that depends.

On?

On whether or not You knew the answers

To any Of those 2 questions.

Schiller.

And?

Monday.

So we're talking About completely Acing it here,

Not just sliding by Or a partial ace?

No.

I had complete And total mastery

Of every arcane fact In hetson's universe.

So? Are we gonna celebrate Or what?

Of course.

Well, does this celebration Involve anything

Other than standing here?

So now that my usefulness As your study partner Has ended,

You just want to skip To the present part.

I thought you said It was a surprise?

Well, you know, Present-slash-surprise.

Well, whatever it is, Is it coming anytime soon?

Um...Yeah, actually. It is.

Here.

I wrapped it myself.

Yeah, I can--I can see that.

You don't like it.

Oh, no. I--I--

I don't know what to say.

You're giving me Your backpack.

Joey, It's not my backpack.

I mean, I bought this Special just for you.

In fact, you know, There may be something Inside here.

You probably Should check.

I should check?

Yeah. Yeah. Just in case

There's an additional level Of--of gift.

I don't get it.

That girl who Was always telling me

How she could have Gone to paris.

Well, I think It's about time

That she put her money Where her mouth is.

And I'm not talking About just paris here, Joey.

I'm talking about Barcelona and madrid

And vienna and prague And wherever.

I mean, The sky's the limit, jo.

And all you have to do Is just say yes.

Are you serious? Completely.

I want every moment We spend together This summer

To be...Historic.

And I figure The best way to do that Is to, you know,

Go to where The history is.

So what do you say?

Oh, my god! Yes!

Yes!

All right, jack, I'll see you then.

Ok, I'll see you.

Hey.

Thanks for coming.

Uh, have you Been waiting long?

No. Actually, I ran into a guy from My sociology class.

Yeah, I--I saw.

Look, that's--that's Not what you think, All right?

That's Completely innocent.

By which you're implying

That the thing The other night wasn't.

You're not even giving me A chance here, are you?

Man, it's like You structured This whole scene

Before you even Walked into the place.

I had 2 versions, actually.

Let me guess. The version You're gonna use

Is the one where I'm the bad guy?

Yeah.

You led me on, you know.

The halloween party Where we first met.

You led me to believe You were one of the undead.

Come on. Look, If you're not gonna Take this seriously--

I'm being serious.

I have a serious Tom cruise-vampire lestat Fantasy

That I need to fulfill While I'm still young.

Which is why I'm breaking up with you.

What?

Yeah. Yeah, you know, It has to be done.

I was kidding myself--

Whoa, whoa. Hold on-- Hold on a second.

If you think I'm gonna Let you walk out of here Like this,

I mean, come on, david.

This isn't how I wanted this To turn out.

Well, guess what? It is, So it sucks for you, huh?

Or maybe it doesn't. Maybe you're gonna Get off easy after all.

It's only my heart That's gonna get even The slightest bit broken.

Why do you Say things like that?

I wouldn't be here tonight If I didn't want to make This work.

Yeah, and you wouldn't Be here at all

Unless you were trying To prove something to yourself.

Prove what?

Look, jack...

I want what everybody wants.

I want to be important To somebody.

Maybe you want that, too, But...

If you do, to be honest, I can't really see it,

Because all I see When I look at you

Is somebody who's Going through the motions Of being in a relationship

Because he thinks It's the right thing to do.

I don't know.

I just know that That isn't enough for me.

So...

Good-bye.

Wait.

You're just gonna Walk away?

Have a good summer, jack, And keep in touch.

So prague first And then budapest?

Or would it make more sense To do it the other way around?

Or we could just skip Central europe

And stay longer in spain-- españa.

No, we can't skip prague.

We have to see the castles,

Plus we owe it to kafka And milan kundera.

You know, I might just have To implement a rule

That limits you to only One writer's grave Per country.

Well, that's never, ever Going to work, now, Is it?

Why not?

Because when we get to france,

How are we ever Gonna choose between Proust and flaubert?

Aren't they the same guy?

Kiss me, and I promise Never to tell hetson

You uttered Such blasphemy!

Deal.

But if we do Actually do this,

There's probably Something else you need To know about me--

Something I've never Told you before.

I already know. I know you snore.

In addition to my love For literature,

I also have a great And profound appreciation For the visual arts.

Oh, what? Like, Um, david, sistine chapel,

The mona lisa-- That type of stuff?

No, don't think You're just gonna

Get away with The renaissance.

I'm talking Picasso in paris,

The van gogh museum In amsterdam--

Ok, ok. I get it. I get it.

So what You're saying is

That you want to do Everything.

Yes! Yes.

Well, Everything within reason.

Within reason?

Well, yeah, I mean, We should be

Somewhat practical About this.

You want to be practical About running away Together?

Well, eddie, I mean, Running away together

Isn't as easy As it looks on tv.

I mean, believe me. I've done it before.

And we're gonna get back In the fall.

We're gonna be Starting school.

We're gonna be Completely broke.

So?

So that thought Doesn't terrify you?

No, not more Than the thought

Of not spending The summer with you.

Or not seeing your face The first time you see The eiffel tower,

Or the london bridge, Or the plaza san marco In venice.

You know, it's not like Either of us have Any money now.

I mean, we're broke. So what?

We start over. Rebuild things From scratch.

With you in california And me here?

And a whole lifetime's Worth of memories.

Things that'll Never leave us

No matter How broke we get.

Eddie...

All I'm saying is that...

Running away together, No matter how romantic

And magical it all seems At the time,

It doesn't Solve anything, ok?

So whatever it is that You're running away from,

Whether it be circumstances Or geography,

You know, fate, Another person,

It's always gonna be there When you get back.

Ok, so what would You suggest to solve These problems, joey?

I mean, What do you want to do?

Just ignore The opportunities That come our way?

No!

I'm just--I'm trying To be practical.

Which means what, Exactly?

Maybe we should just wait.

You know, Scale back a little.

Scale back? Yeah.

Maybe work for a month or two And then go.

Joey, we're gonna spend The rest of our lives Working.

Yeah, and we have The entire summer To take this trip.

Nobody said We have to go tomorrow.

I do.

What?

You don't--

You don't even really Want to do this, do you?

Of course I want to do this.

Yeah, but only On your terms.

Well, whose terms Am I supposed to be Doing this on, eddie?

I mean, if I'm gonna Throw my life entirely Off course for the chance--

Oh, my god. What are you Talking about?

Throwing it off course?

I'm not asking you To throw your life Off course, joey.

I'm talking about A summer here.

All I'm asking is That you take a leap.

Come away with me.

Oh, like saul bellow Or on the road?

Eddie, those are Just stories--poems.

Little pieces of unreality

That we're not meant To base our lives on.

Eventually we always Have to come back

And deal With the real world.

So what? What are you gonna do?

You just wanna sit here For your entire life

Waiting and hoping For the world to come To you?

Because the point Of those stories, joey,

Is that people's lives-- Their real lives-- Only begin

When they step out Into the world.

And when you do that, When you meet it Head on,

Maybe you change the world, Maybe you don't,

But the point is Is that it changes you.

And that is What people mean

When they talk About growing up.

So what? If I want to be with you,

I'm supposed to just throw

All of my previous Life experience Out the window?

I'm supposed To just stop being who I am?

Who you are, joey, Is not some scared Little girl

Who's afraid To take chances On anything,

Who's afraid To really love someone

Because of the risk Or the pain.

That does not define you As a person.

Or maybe it does, You know?

Maybe--maybe I'm crazy.

Maybe you've just blinded me.

Are you done?

You should probably find Somewhere else to sleep tonight.

Hi, guys.

Believe me, it's like A morgue around here.

Hey, look, I took A major hit, too.

All right. I'll talk to you soon.

And do me a favor. Stay away from open windows.

I don't want to hear about How they had to scrape you Off the sidewalk or something.

He didn't think That was very funny.

Yeah, go figure. What the hell Is happening here, rich?

First of all, you're late. Where the hell you been?

Ah, forget it. I don't want to hear about

Your sexual exploits With lois lane.

I'm depressed enough As it is.

I'm being serious. What's going on?

What the hell Do you think, dumbass?

Fda issued their ruling This morning.

Big fat rejection.

But rich, You said stepatech Was a sure thing.

Yeah, well, So did everyone else.

Turns out roger's Miracle flu medication

Has a bunch Of nasty side effects

The fda does not wish To inflict on the American public at this time.

Rich, this is A disaster.

Settle down, rookie.

I've seen worse. I've lost more.

We'll get over it. Live to trade another day.

Live to trade Another day?

I've been Shoving stepatech Down my client's throats

For 6 months.

Pacey, stock market 101--

Biotech stocks are sketchy,

Especially these days.

You're going to get screamed And yelled at today, But it's not your fault.

It's just A professional hazard.

Oh, man, you all right?

You look like you're Going to toss your cookies.

No, I'll be fine.

Listen...

Take a deep breath. Go back to your office.

You probably have A hundred phone calls To return by now.

Listen to 'em, Be concerned,

Be sympathetic, But be strong.

And remember, They got themselves Into this mess, not you.

Got it?

Now get out of here. Get to work.

So potter...

Here we are again,

Right back where We started from.

Advisor...

Advisee...

And you still No closer to having Declared a major.

I didn't want To give you the satisfaction, But...English.

English.

Yeah. I mean, I can Always change it later

To something like Marine biology, but...

Can I go now?

What, no interest In tripping down Memory lane with me?

Not particularly, no.

I do have other things On my plate at the moment.

Yeah, um...

That first time you came To my office here,

That was Your birthday, right?

My birthday?

Yeah.

The day before my birthday.

So how was it?

My birthday?

Yeah.

Sorry I didn't Get you anything.

You know what?

I realize that this Is very exciting for you,

Sitting me down And reminding me

How I wasted An entire year of my life

And never really Actually lived up To my academic potential.

But...

You more than lived up To your potential, joey.

An a-minus?

This means...

Factoring in All your papers from This semester and last

Brings your grade to A c-plus for the year.

Just slightly Above average.

You got a problem With that?

No. No.

You know, the sad thing

Is that I almost Gave you an "A."

I went back and forth About it, and then...

Ultimately, I found Your essay on catch 22 A little bleak.

You found it bleak?

It's a story Of hope, joey.

I mean, this man,

Confronted with The absolute absurdity Of the human condition,

He's terrified To his core.

He takes a leap Of faith.

He chooses life.

Here. Page 461.

Read the part That's marked.

"They'll have to try like hell To catch me this time.

"They will try like hell.

"And even if They don't find you,

"What kind of way Is that to live?

"You'll always be alone,

"No one will ever be On your side,

And you'll always live In danger of betrayal."

"I live that way now.

"But you can't Just turn your back on

All your responsibilities And run away from them,"

Major danby insisted.

"It's such a negative mood. It's escapist."

Yossarian laughed With buoyant scorn

And shook his head.

"I'm not running away From my responsibilities.

"I'm running to them.

"There's nothing negative About running away

To save my life."

As I said in class,

A lot of critics Find that moment Too sentimental.

An author Ham-fistedly Reaching in

And injecting An amoral tale With a moral.

An embarrassing betrayal Of all the dark comedy

That came before it. But me?

I've always Kind of liked it.

It has such a nice, Hopeful ring to it.

Do you see my point?

Yes, I do.

I'm sorry, Did it seem Like I was done?

I kind of have someplace I need to be right now.

We can continue this Next semester.

Do you honestly think I'm ever gonna let you

Into one of My classes again?

No.

Do you honestly think I'm ever gonna sign up

For one of Your classes again?

But I do need an advisor.

And you'd like That to be me?

Yes, I would.

Because it is my fondest wish To continue tormenting you

Until the day I finally leave This institution.

But if it works out That I never see you again

For the rest of my life, That's fine, too.

Bye-bye.

So there is a soul In there somewhere.

And to think I just assumed

You were another one Of rich rinaldi's Pet sharks.

Sadia, I just screwed over My best friend.

I've been feeling sick To my stomach all day.

And rich was right, The rest of my clients

Knew what they were Getting themselves into.

But dawson entrusted me With his entire life savings,

And I pissed it all away.

How could I let that happen?

Ok, this happens All the time.

It's just the life Of being a broker.

Well, that's not Acceptable to me.

Hey.

Either you Just failed an exam

Or last night didn't go As well as I expected it to.

You know I've never Really cared that much About school.

I'm sorry.

It's not your fault.

Do you think that I was just going Out with david

To prove something To myself?

Something about what?

Just to prove That I could do it,

That I could be In a relationship.

You know, Have a boyfriend.

I don't know. I mean, is that something

That you feel Like you needed To prove to yourself?

Yeah.

Who wants to be That 35-year-old guy That's living alone

And still going out To the bar scene

Trying to find The right person?

Give me a break. You're 20 years old.

You're not even Legally old enough

To be in those bars, Let alone haunt them

With your sad, Single self.

Yeah, that from The girl who was on A first-name basis

With half The bouncers In new york.

Look, my point is Is that I don't think

That everybody meets The love of their life

When they're a teenager.

Or when they're 25. Or even when they're 35.

But that doesn't mean That you stop looking And hoping.

You know, 'cause you Will meet that person,

And when you do,

I guess you know it.

You're gonna end up With c.J.

You know david Used to say that

He knew you guys Were gonna stick

Because you Gave him hope.

Me? Yeah.

I mean, You give me hope.

You did it, Didn't you?

You found somebody That makes you happy.

Somebody who's not gay.

Yeah, well, He's slightly gay,

If only in the seventh grade Sense of the term.

He does make me happy.

Even when things Are awful.

You know, I'd share him With you if I could.

Thanks, but that's Not necessary.

I want to ask you One thing before you go.

As long as it Doesn't involve me

Holding you While you cry.

I promise.

What is it, kid?

Well, I was just Wondering if maybe You could cover me?

Loan me A little money?

You're kidding, right?

No. I wish I was, but...

You have no idea How hard it is

For me to ask you For this, rich,

But a friend of mine A couple of weeks ago,

He came to me And he wanted

To double his money Really fast.

So I just put it all Into stepatech.

That was A stupid move, pacey.

But he wanted To pull out,

And I told him not to, I told him to Just trust me

And ride the thing out, And this guy is

My oldest and closest Childhood friend.

I cannot screw him Like this, rich.

It's already done, Pacey.

No, I'm serious.

All I want to do Is give him back

His initial Investment.

And then I'll pay you back

With whatever Interest you want.

What about you?

What happened To your disposable income?

I got nothing left.

Everything I had Was in stepatech.

I'm worth like, I don't know, 300 bucks right now.

You know, it's funny.

You're so good At your job,

You're so confident,

I sometimes forget How young

And stupid you are.

Please, rich, I need your help,

Not the speech Right now, ok?

Oh, I think you do, Actually.

And I'm gonna say to you

What you should have Told your little friend

In the first place.

No.

That's it?

That's all you have To say to me?

I come to you, I embarrass myself,

And you're just Gonna say no?

Pretty much, yeah.

You know, rich, Sometimes you're So good at your job

I forget what An unfeeling prick You are.

You work for me. I'm your boss.

You watch your tone.

Ok, rich, I'm just asking you For this one favor!

Just one time!

I...Don't...Do... Favors, witter.

Why not? 'cause god forbid You have to drop

The gordon gekko routine For a second?

I mean, this would be So easy for you, man.

Just help me out here!

Help you out?!

I gave you A job, witter!

I gave you a chance To escape some Bottom feeder existence,

And every step Of the way,

You have been A holier-than-thou Pain in the ass.

So you tell me,

Why should I help you out?

Take this pen.

Take this pen, Witter,

And write down Today's date.

Because from This day forward,

You're going To amount to nothing.

You are a failure And a loser,

And you deserve Everything that can--

Uhh!

It's all over, pace.

Don't worry...

You're fired.

That's what you wanted All along, anyway.

Loser.

Eddie, "Dear joey,

"As you know, I'm not good At good-byes,

"But I guess That's what this is.

"A real one this time.

"Because as much As I thought

"I wanted us To be together,

"I guess what I want more Is to be one of those people

"Who lives every moment Of his life

"Without indecision And without regrets.

"Someone who dares To disturb the universe

"Without a thought To the consequences.

"And you're not one Of those people,

"At least not yet.

"Maybe you'll prove me wrong About that one day.

"I hope you do.

"But who knows? Maybe people can't change.

"Maybe we're doomed To repeat the same mistakes

"Over and over again No matter how hard we try.

"I always hope For a happy ending.

"How crazy is that?

Take care of yourself."
