Yeah, you!

Move over!

Get your ass off that range rover!

>> That attitude toward the homeless is exactly what maureen

is protesting tonight.

>> Maureen is protesting losing her performance space.

Not my attitude.

She's not worried about the people who live in that empty

lot.

She's worried about losing a home for her angry little

protest skits.

>> What's happened to benny?

What happened to his heart?

And the ideals he once pursued?

>> Any owner of that lot next door has the right to do with it

as he pleases.

reality you'll see boys you'll a state of the art digital

guarantee that you can stay here for free if you do me one small

favor.

>> What?

>> Convince maureen to cancel her protest.

>> Why not just get an injunction or call the cops?

>> I did and they're on standby.

But my investors would rather I handle this quietly you can't

quietly wipe out an entire tent city, then watch 'it's a

wonderful life' on tv!

You want to produce films and write songs?

You need somewhere to perfect it.

It's what we used to dream about, think twice before you

reject it.

You'll see boys you'll see boys you'll see the beauty of a

studio that lets us do our work and get paid with condos on the

top whose rent keeps open our shop just stop her protest and

you'll have it made you'll see or you'll pack.

That boy could use some prozac.

Or heavy drugs.

Or group hugs.

>> Which reminds me -â " we have a detour to make tonight.

Anyone who wants to can come along.

>> Life support is a group for people coping with life.

>> We don't have to stay too long.

march I can remember. Angel has spent most of the year

in the hospital, with collins always at her side.

Roger's still trying to write that song.

But now he's usually working at mimi's.

Maureen and joanne are officially broken up.

It seems mimi and roger are not far behind.

>> Sorry.

Sorry I'm late. Sorry.

>> Where were you?

[ Coughs ] >> Are you alright?

>> I'm fine, don't worry about me.

How's benny? >> I wasn't with benny.

>> Of course not.

I'm going back to my place. >> Wait.

I should tell you. I should --

never mind. >> Yeah, never mind.

>> It's over. >> It's over.

>> It's over.

>> So we thank you, dear angel, for lighting our way with style

and grace and love.

>> She pulled me aside one night to talk legal advice.

Not for her; For everyone in the east village.

>> Squatters, child protective services, medical insurance.

She wanted to help.

And she always did.

>> Angel was one of my closest friends. It's right that it's

halloween, because it was her favorite holiday.

I knew we'd hit it off the moment we met.

Some skinhead was bothering her, and she said she was more of a

man than he'd ever be and more of a woman than he'd ever get.

>> And then there was the time he-- she--

walked up to this group of tourists. And they were

petrified because, a - they were obviously lost and b - had

probably never spoken to a person like her before in their

lives. But she offered to take a picture with them. And then she

said she'd help 'em find the statue of liberty.

>> So much more original than any of us.

You'd find an old tablecloth on the street and make a dress and

next year, sure enough, they'd be selling them at saks.

>> You always said how lucky you were that we were all friends

but it was us, baby, who were the lucky ones.

But it was us, baby, who were the lucky ones.

scalding hot? * how can a morning this mild be so raw? *

* why are entire years strewn on the cutting room floor of

memory * when single frames from one magic night * forever

flicker in closeup on the 3d imax of my mind * that's poetic.

That's pathetic. * why did mimi knock on roger's

door * * and collins choose that phone

booth * * back where angel set up her

drums * * why did maureen's equipment

break down * * why am I the witness and when

I capture it on film * * will it mean that it's the end

and I'm alone * I took that job at buzzline.

>> who said I was talking to you?

>> * we used to have this fight each night *

calm down. * she'd never admit I existed

>> * some of the best.

How could she? * >> * how could you let her go?

>> * you just don't know how could we lose angel? *

>> * maybe you'll see why when you stop escaping your pain *

* at least now if you try angel's death won't be in vain *

>> * her death is in vain >> * are you insane?

There's so much to care about * * there's me there's mimi

>> * mimi's got her baggage too *

>> * so do you >> * who are you to tell me what

I know, what to do * >> * a friend

>> * but who, mark, are you? "Mark has got his work" *

his work" * important work, like buzzline.

Keep hiding in your work. >> Hiding?

From what? >> * facing your failure facing

your loneliness * * facing the fact you live a

lie * * yes, you live a lie tell you

why * * you're always preaching not to

be numb when that's how you thrive *

* you say you know how we all feel, but you really detach from

feeling alive * >> * perhaps it's because i'm

the one of us to survive * >> poor baby.

>> * mimi still loves roger is roger really jealous or afraid

that mimi's weak * >> * mimi did look pale

And watch your mouth. You're talking to my friend.

>> Must be nice to have money. >> Sure is.

>> I think it only fair to tell you, you just paid for the

funeral of the person who killed your dog.

>> I know.

I always hated that dog. Let's pay him off, then we'll

all get drunk. >> Can't.

I have a business meeting. >> Punk.
