He's in a meeting, Michael.

Do you know that the third
quarter Schedule-47 is gone?

It's 60 million
in currency purchases outlined,

and it's gone.

- It was a pleasure.
- See you later.

Count on it.

Hey. What's going on?

Schedule-47 is off the computer.

Well, did you check
the backup file?

Gone. Both gone.

Geez.

Well, I'm sorry.

I... I... I wish I could help you,
Michael.

No, I'm sorry.
No, I just can't believe that...

Well, if you didn't get it done
in time,

I suppose I can get Howard

to pull me off what I'm doing
to give you a hand.

If you really want me to,
that is,

but, you know,
it doesn't look too good.

You know, the only people
that have access to that file

are me and Leslie,
Britt and you.

If you're trying
to say something,

why don't you just come out
and say it?

Oh, Michael, did... did, uh...
Did you find it?

No calls, Marie.

Oh, Michael, your um, uh...
Michael?

Just can't believe...

Forget it was Thursday?

Oh, Jesus. You scared me.

Sorry.

Are you ready for lunch?
I have to get back.

Oh, lunch. Jesus.

- I'm...
- You're not gonna cancel?

No, I just have...

Think I should cancel dinner
with my parents tomorrow night?

No! No, no, no. No.
Of course not.

No, I wanna do that.

- I know they're kind of a drag...
- Yeah.

But they have been sweet
about the wedding arrangements.

Yeah. Yeah.

Which reminds me,
I'm having second thoughts.

You are?

Oh, God, that sounded terrible.

No, I just meant that October
might not be good for me.

How's November for you?

Fine. Um, November's fine.

Oh, I'm sorry, sweetie.
I didn't mean to scare you.

No. Don't be silly.
You didn't scare me.

I absolutely, positively
wanna get married.

Mm. This year.

And I absolutely, positively
wanna have a baby,

mm, next year.

What is it, Michael?

Oh, my stomach.

I feel like I can't breathe
sometimes.

Just a stupid thing.

Do you want me to call my father
at the hospital?

I'm f... No, I'm all right.

- Better?
- Yeah. Yeah.

Oh, Michael, I know you better
than you know yourself,

and I just know these attacks
of yours are work-related.

You're not even 30, and you're
gonna be named senior analyst.

Someone is gonna
be named senior analyst.

Oh, you know it will be you.

You're successful,
for God's sake.

Try to relax and enjoy it.

All right. Yeah, you're right.

If you're feeling better,

I really gotta get back
to the office.

Oh, no, no, no, no. I'm fine.
No, you should go.

Okay.

Michael, call me tonight?

Sure.

Yeah, that'd be f...
That'd be good.

Oh, Christ.

Hi. What can I getcha?

Bourbon and water.

2.75.

I can't find my damned wallet.

If you could wait just a minute,
please.

Here you go.

Thanks.

Looks like you've having
the same kind of day I am.

For your sake, I hope your clay
is nothing like mine.

Supposed to be at the office?

Yeah.

Shoulda gone to Disneyland.

You know.

When I was a kid, uh, I just
wanted to get right off the boat

in the middle of Pirates
of the Caribbean, you know?

Just live there.

Son of a bitch!

You can't just walk away
from this, Claire.

Not here. Okay?

What's he lookin' at?

Take it easy, Will.
He's just some drip.

Thank you.

He just bought me a drink, okay?

Why don't you take a hike, pal?

Well, this is a public bar.

I can have a drink here,
can't I?

Jesus, Willy, not again.

You shoulda taken a hike, pal.

Jesus, all right.
Just let me go.

Now it's too late.

Let him go.

Yeah, what are you gonna do?

Let's find out.

Come on.
Let's get the hell outta here.

Hi, sweetheart.

I just wanna see
if you're feeling better.

Call me later, okay?

Hello. Pismo.

I have to ask you something.
I'm coming over.

Michael, it's Howard.

Patterson seems to think
there's some problem

with your Schedule-47.

Not true, is it?

By the way, where were you
this afternoon?

When did you get this?

Couple weeks ago.

Why did you get this?

I don't know. It was on sale.

Do you need it?

That's not the point.

Better give it away to somebody.
Cut your losses.

You're not making any sense.

Your life makes
too much sense already.

At this rate, you'll have
a home espresso machine

by the end of the year.

Pismo, what did you say
you had to ask me,

'cause I really gotta get going.

What is the rush with you
all the time?

I left my wallet at the beach.

Oh, better find
your credit cards

so you can charge
some more video cameras.

You needed to ask me something.

Do you need to borrow
money again, or...?

Why do you immediately assume
I need money?

Do you?

Yes.

Fine. I'll write you a check.

You know what really
drives me nuts?

You don't respect me.

I'm your older brother,
your only brother,

and you don't respect me.

- Stop with this.
- It's true.

I just think you could do better

than sitting around your
apartment smoking pot all day.

That's all.

Does that mean I have to
just because I could?

Who says I could, anyway?

I couldn't get a decent job,
to save my life,

and you know perfectly well why.

Look, it was eight years ago.
Six months for possession.

Nobody gives a damn.

It was dealing,
and those people never forget.

Hey, I'm out there trying.

Oh, God.

Look, do we have to go
through this every single time

I loan you money?

Look, come on.
Uh, it's no big deal, all right?

Come on.

I'll call ya
if your wallet turns up,

but don't hold your breath,
okay?

Okay.

- And that's my office.
- Okay.

- Okay. Thank you.
- Okay.

I know you didn't want me to,
but I promised you something.

It's just such a nightmare.

It's taking a lot longer
than I planned.

You really don't have to.

I want to. Please.

You're so sweet.

Hey.

You're the guy, uh,
from the bar, right?

The guy with the bottle.
Re... remember?

I'm Michael.

Why did you leave so fast?

Didn't wanna stick around
for the thank yous.

Well, thank you, anyway.

I'm...

Do you live around here?

No.

Oh.

Thank you, anyway.

Why didn't you back down?

- What?
- In the bar.

The guy told you to take a hike.
Why didn't you?

I don't know.

I don't know.

You know,
that voice that you, uh...

That tells you what to do
sometimes?

Guess I listened to it today.

That sounds stupid, I suppose.

I'm like that.

And I always listen to him.

I'm Alex.

You wanna get a beer?

He's a conniving son of a bitch,
and he gets ahead.

That pisses me off.

Well. That's the way it works.

- Yeah.
- And he knows it.

He pulled that stunt today
to show you

that he could,
and that you'd let him.

Well, I didn't exactly let him...

But you didn't do a thing
about it.

It won't be a computer file
next time.

It'll be your biggest account.

Or your girlfriend.

And you won't do anything
about that either.

It's the same principle,
it's just a bigger scale.

He understands that.

I like the guy.

What's his name?

Patterson.

Patterson.

Oh, you gotta be kidding me. No.

Come on.

To Patterson.

To Patterson.

What kind of man are you that
you'd drink to your enemies?

This isn't funny.

There.

Show Patterson that face.

Beat him in his own game.

Back it up.

Uh, "Dominant athletic woman",
right?

I think you're really gonna
like this band.

Oh, well, I...
I can't stay very long.

I've gotta be up early.

Come on. I get the feeling
you don't get out so much.

Dominant athletic woman.

Okay.

- Hi.
- Right on.

Who is this band?

Nymphs.

Nymphs.

Gentlemen,
what can I do for you?

Drink?

Oh, uh, beer.

- Tequila shots.
- Right up.

Oh, Yeah, yeah.

Two, my friend.

Are you going?

No, you are.

Go on. Go ahead, go down.

- Want anything?
- Go on.

All right.

Hey, listen, can I get two
of whatever she's drinking?

All right.

Shit. My wallet.

Sorry. I'm sorry.

Yo, Jeffy!

Whoa.

Excuse me. Are you all right?

It was only...

We're very pleased
you've made this decision.

We, uh, worked with him, what?
Two years ago?

And then again...

Hi.

Can I have, um... uh, balance
sheets for the Tilberg account?

Let's take a look at the 60-day
figures, all right?

Of course.

Hey, I understand
that you're a Lakers fan.

I love basketball.

Well, I have season tickets,

and I'm not gonna be able
to use 'em next week,

and I'd like to maybe send
a couple tickets over.

You know, I have a great story.

I took my girlfriend
about a month ago.

I was sure
she was gonna hate it.

Ends up she turns out to be
a great fan.

I mean, she loved it.
She just thought it was great.

Screaming and carrying on.

I mean, it was just hilarious.

Gentlemen, will you excuse me
for one moment, please?

- No problem.
- Certainly.

Be right back.

Oh, listen,
while we have the time,

why don't we take a look
at page 13 again?

13.

What have you done?

What do you mean?

Oh, you know damn well
what I mean.

There are batting averages
in my section report.

Batting averages?

Seems st... Are you still in,
uh, batting champions?

I'm in a meeting, you swine,

with Howard and two pension fund
administrators.

Where's my section report?

Where's my Schedule-47?

Patterson,
is everything all right?

Yes, Howard. Fine. One minute.

Michael, what's this I hear
about the Schedule-47?

I don't know. I mean,
it's all set, ready to roll.

Good.

- So are we, so let's go.
- Yes.

I'm not admitting
I did anything, of course.

Of course not.

But if you give me mine back,

I'll see if I can get you
yours back.

What do you want?

I want you to go down
to your office...

I'm in a meeting.

Go down to your office

and get my report back online
in 60 seconds.

Ruth, I'm gonna be here for
another two-and-a-half hours.

Yeah, no, no.
I'm fine, I'm fine.

I'm just tired, you know?
I wanna go to bed.

Yep.

All right, well, um, say
I'm sorry to your parents.

Okay?
And I'll call ya in the morning.

I love you, too. Yep.

Get you something?

Owe you that from last night.

If you say so.

Uh, you want a drink
or something?

No, I'm... No, I'm just, uh,
just looking for somebody.

Michael!

I was just looking for you.

- Tony, you know this guy?
- Oh, yeah. He's cool.

Looks like a cop to me.

Tony?

Old joke.

- Let's get outta here.
- Yeah. All right.

- Later!
- Yeah.

- I won't wait up.
- You're staying here?

Oh, upstairs. For a while.

Hey, got your car? Can I drive?

So it worked?

Oh, yeah, like a dream.

I mean, I wish you could have
seen Patterson's face.

- Oh, you watched.
- Yeah, yeah. No, the whole time.

Oh, that's great.

Always got to stick around
and watch the fun.

Watch 'em squirm.

Hey. How about some champagne?

...would like to buy item 1
and item 7 and item 28.

- Right?
- Yes.

- This one, and this one?
- Yes.

Jesus.

Excuse me.

Oh, really?

- You okay, darling?
- Darling.

I'd like to introduce you
to my husband, Dr. Stiegel.

- And this is Maxwell, uh...
- Cunningham.

Nice to meet you, Doctor.

- My friends call me Don.
- Don.

Well. Good to see you.

Didn't you know? She's dead.

Dead? Chantal?

Mm-hm. Hans killed her.

Well, actually, Chantal
asked him to do it.

She would have done it
herself anyway.

I'm shocked.

After looking at these pictures
all night,

I can't even think
about anything like that.

Dominic!

Dominic!

I'm Franco.

- Franco.
- Good to see you.

Claire.
I think you met last night.

- Hi, how are you?
- Oh, you remember.

Of course.

I'm very sorry.

Oh, well, thank you.
No, I... Don't worry about it.

So what do you think of the art?

- Not...
- Oh, so derivative.

- And without hope.
- Without hope.

Definitely without the hope.

I think it's great how you
manage to keep your spirits up.

Must be very difficult for you.
I'm sorry.

Yes, it, uh... it has...
It has been.

Well, I think we've seen
all there is to see here.

I know I have.

Hang on, I'm going to, um, free
myself from an entanglement.

I'll be right back.

What's going on here, Alex?

She thinks your wife just died.

What?

If you're gonna fuck
a fantasy anyway,

might as well be a good one.

- Let's go.
- Yes, let's go.

Bueno.

I mean, I hardly
even knew the man,

but Andre said he was fine,
so I stayed.

Oh, the place
was beautiful, too.

You would have loved it.
It overlooks the ocean.

It's so nice, Dominic.

Yes. It is.

Does anybody want an espresso?

No.

His wife was insane.

- He had a wife?
- Yeah.

Do you have any liquor?

- Yeah. Whatever you'd like.
- Rum.

All right.

Yeah, no, they were separated.

He had changed the locks
and everything,

but it turns out
she owned the place.

Very nice.

Tried to kill me.

She showed up in the middle
of the night with a big knife,

so I split.

- Do you play?
- No, never.

So, show me around, Dominic.

All right.

Uh, let's...
Yeah, let's go upstairs first.

Do you want me
to get you anything?

- Are you sure?
- No, no, no. I get a beer.

All right.

So how, uh... how...
How long ago was this?

Oh, five years.

But I stayed on the island
for two more seasons.

Where do you live now?

Is that a sundeck?

Who are you?

Friend of Michael's.
Who are you?

I'm fine. Is Michael here?

He's busy.

Tell him it's his brother.
Tell him I have the fear.

I said he's busy.

Oh. Okay.

Who are you?
What are you doing here?

Helping Michael.

Can I ask you something?

I don't have it.

Have what?

Your accent.

Must be looking for it by now.

He told you?

I knew.

But didn't wanna say anything.

Some people just can't lie.

He's still very upset
about Jasmine's death.

Listen.

What?

It's Dominic.

Yeah.

I think I'd be good for him.

Sure.

You make a very funny face
when you come.

Jesus Christ.

No, no, no.
It was just gettin' good.

Relax, Dominic. I thought
you looked really good.

I thought you looked beautiful.
Especially when you were on top.

Thanks.

My cab. Bye.

Just wait right here.

Claire!

Let me give you a ride.

That's okay.

Just wait a second.

Let me at least give you
cab fare.

I have money.

Well, can I get
your phone number?

Why?

Well, I just, uh, I mean, we...

Dominic, we just felt like it,
so we did it.

Relax.

I just thought I might call you.
That's all.

You're so sweet.

Get home safely.

Can't believe you did that.

Aw, come on, man.
I gave her to you.

Gave her to me? What the hell
are you talking about?

At least you could say
"thank you".

I reminded her of your grief
towards Jasmine.

Michael, I don't mind you giving
away my Franco thing.

Smart to keep the dead wife,
though.

Confess to one lie,
but continue another.

Nothing like it
to confuse people.

You know, I think she would have
gone for you without me.

She said we seem like brothers.

She did?

Yeah.

Well, I know you must
have done something,

because that never happens
to me.

Does now.

Tell me what you want, Mick.

Mick?

Tell me what you want,
tell me what you're afraid of.

- I, uh...
- Just for fun. Come on.

Tell me. What are you afraid of?

I'm afraid of getting married,
I guess.

And that's easy. Don't.

Well, I'm engaged.

Why?

Uh, I did...
I didn't wanna lose her.

I...

I'm terrified
of getting married.

Done.

Now tell me what you want.

More than anything else
in the world, what do you want?

This guy Patterson and I
are both up for the same job,

senior analyst.

I want that job.

I want it so bad.

Then, drink to it.

Make it happen.

Make it happen.

You can give me that quote
on the whole 70 million?

Michael, I've already told you
I could.

Twice, in fact.

You wanna dump the dollars
or not?

Hey, Michael,
you wanna go to lunch?

I can't.

You know, I...
I gotta meet somebody.

Great job on the bi-monthly.
When have you had time to sleep?

Pete, I gotta call you back.

If you wanna beat
the morning trade figure,

I've gotta get 901719-

I know, I know, I know.
I'll call you back.

Hi, Alex. Sorry I'm late.

Listen, just, uh, I don't know,

leave... leave 'em
under the seats, is fine.

Sure you can't go?
Beautiful day.

The track? No, I really can't
play the ponies right now.

- I'll... You're uptight.

It's work.

You wanna tell me about it?

It's a matter of precise timing.

I've been on the phone
with the guy all day.

The trade figure comes out
at 5:30 tomorrow morning,

and it's going to be
significantly up, I know.

- How do you know?
- I just know. I feel it.

It's my job to know.

I should dump dollars
before New York closes today,

but my company policy dictates
that I can't make a move

until after the trade figure
is out.

So what happens
if you do it before?

Well, if I'm right, you know,
I'm ahead of everybody,

the client cleans up...

So you can make him money,
and it's not illegal.

What's the problem?

It's more complicated than that.

It's a question
of judicious business.

It's not a question
of judicious business.

It's a question of balls.

Now, do you have the cojones
or don't you?

I was up all night
going over that report.

- Thanks, Jeff.
- I'm tired.

Good morning, Michael.

Got three lines going already.

You wanna pick up one?

Yes, just a moment, please.

He'll call back.

Come on.

Yeah!

Michael, are you
in there already?

Yep. Right here.

There's a Mr. Cojones
for you on line 3.

- Hello.
- Good morning.

What the hell
are you doing up already?

I haven't gone to bed yet.

Well, how'd you do?

I was right.
Up by almost a 30 percent pop.

Great. Let's celebrate.

No, no. I can't.

I gotta go to Ruth's parents'
house for dinner.

Anniversary party, very formal.

Sounds like a riot.

Yeah, well,
I can't get out of it.

Dr. Fielding would be crushed.

Suit yourself.

Hey. Nice work, Mick.

Thank you.

Michael, don't forget
about the DMV

to get your
new driver's license-

- Right.
- A nine o'clock.

And also you've got
just a stack of messages

- from yesterday.
- Rig ht.

So I'm just gonna
get a cup of coffee.

I'll just be at my desk.
All right?

- Leslie?
- Yes, sir?

Call me Mick.

Mick.

Patterson here.

You're kidding.
When did those figures come in?

Howard?

Hold on for a second.

Good news.

Thank you, sir.

Thanks, Daddy.

Terrific.

- Isn't she lovely?
- She gets it from her mother.

Charming.

Congratulations.

Happy anniversary.

- Look at you.
- Oh, yeah.

- Thirty years, huh?
- I like it.

- You do?
- Yeah.

A little greasy, but nice.

I'm late. I'm sorry.

It's just... Is everything okay
at the office?

Oh, it couldn't be better.

Your friend is here.

My friend?

- Michael, there you are, dear.
- Happy anniversary.

- This is for you.
- Oh.

I've been chatting
with Francois.

Francois?

Bonsoir, Michel.

- Francois, you made it.
- Oui.

I was doubting it,

but I could not let you
celebrate without me.

Of course not. No.

- How are you, Michael?
- Dr. Fielding. Congratulations.

Thank you. Thirty years.

Guess I'll be coming to these
things for you pretty soon.

Yeah, I guess so.

You didn't tell me
you're working with someone

from the Paris office.

Yes, yes. We've been, uh...

I have been here
for several weeks.

Yeah.

We were just about to look
at the promotional campaign

that you and Francois
put together

- for the new French office.
- Oh, good.

Pardon, but Mick and I,

we have seen this promotion
a thousand times.

Mick.

- He's charming.
- Yes, he is, isn't he?

Francois?

What the hell
are you doing here?

- Don't be mad.
- I'm not mad.

I'm just very surprised.

Yeah, but you might be
in a minute.

What did you do?

Just want you to know
that I did this for you.

Did what for me?

Ch, my“

- You didn't...
- Just the highlights.

It's for the best, really.

Mazda!

Oh, my God.

- Come here.
- Dr. Fielding...

Turn it off!

I can explain.

That French guy that was here,
Francois...

Come here, you little shit.

- Hey!
- Hey!

Hey!

Hey, come back here!

Hey!

You asked me to, remember?

Here you go.

Gay White Male.

Not you.

Oh.

Excuse me,
what's going in there?

Hello.

Dominic!

Dominic!

Dominic!

Oh.

You look beautiful.

That's not my name.

Dominic.
That's not my real name.

My name is K... Kirk.

- Kirk?
- Yeah, my real name is Kirk.

And I suppose your wife
isn't dead either.

No, she's not even my wife.

You should be angry.

Angry is boring.

I don't feel like it.

What do you feel like?

Oh, geez.

Watch out.

Wow.

- Who are these people?
- Just people.

Oh, hey-

Decongestant?

Oh.

Great.

Forgive me?

The hell with it. I owe you.

I'll keep this.

All right.

What are you doing?
What's... what's this?

- It's my number.
- Oh.

- Do you want it?
- Yeah, of course. Yeah.

- It's good for a couple of clays.
- Are you ready?

Yeah, let's get out of here.

Mm.

I'm sorry.

- Cheers.
- So long.

Yep.

You tired?

Not a chance.

Good.

Hi, there.

Dr. Fielding?

Perfect.

I've got a mask for you!

Oh, no, no. I don't need one.

Uh, 8.50.

Come here.

Come on!

Come on. Put your hands here.

Dominic, come here.

- Shut up.
- Come on.

Empty the register.

- Please don't, don't shoot.
- What?

Empty it!

Press "No Sale", upper left.

Take it!

Please.

- Please, don't.
- Go start the car.

Please don't kill me.

Please. Please don't shoot.

Look at me.

Please, don't shoot me.

Oh, God.

- Open your mouth.
- Oh, God.

Oh, God.

Bang.

You were great.

Great!

Pull over.

What?

I think you'd better
stop the car.

You Okay?

Mick?

I'm ready to do another one.

Don't bail on me now.

All right.
I just went to sleep a second.

Come on.

This is Patterson's
neighborhood.

That's his street.

Really?

Let's turn around.

Pull a U-ey right here.

I have to go to work.

You don't mind if I sleep here,
do you?

Just lock up when you go.

You were something last night,
Mick.

A changed man.

Give my regards to Patterson.

Mr. Boll!

Rito.

Aced it!

- What?
- My accounting test.

Third highest in my class.

- Thanks for your help.
- Sure.

Could you hold that, please?

Hey, Michael. Mick.

Morning.

Wow, that is so awful.

I know. Could you imagine?

City is getting just ridiculous.

- Where's the sugar?
- It's right here.

Did you hear about what happened
to Patterson?

- What about him?
- He got mugged last night.

- What?
- Assaulted, can you believe it?

Oh, gross.
What happened to your hand?

Nothing. Uh, well, I hurt it.

Are you okay?

I'm f...
Yeah, I'm f... I'm fine.

Where... Where did it happen?

I'm not sure.

Do they know who did it?

I don't know. He didn't seem
to want to go into it.

- He's okay, though?
- Well, I think so.

I mean, he was beaten up
pretty badly.

Can you imagine that?

I mean, that is the very thing
that makes me wanna move...

Move back to Seattle.

Alex?

What happened last night?

What do you mean?

The last thing I remember is

we were driving around
Patterson's neighborhood,

and I go into the office today

and find out
that he got beat up.

And I'm standing there
in the middle of everybody

with dried blood
all over my hand.

Did we go to Patterson's
last night?

Yes. We went to Patterson's.

Well, I mean,
I didn't hit him, did I?

You didn't just hit him.

You beat the shit out of him.

What the hell were you doing?

Holding him down.

Don't worry. I mean,
I'm not gonna tell anybody.

Tell anybody?

Jesus Christ, this guy is
a colleague of mine.

Oh, don't worry about him.
He won't say anything.

He knows you'd kill him
if he did.

Wait... wait a sec. Kill him?

Yes.

And if you didn't kill him,
I would.

I told him that this morning...

when I went to get the donuts.

Get out.

Get out!

Okay.

You got what you wanted.

Thanks, Fred.

Mick.

Howard wants to see you
in his office right away.

- Did he say what it was about?
- No, he just said "right away".

- Okay, talk to you later.
- I heard you.

Sorry.

Sit down, sit down, sit down.

I just got off the phone
with Patterson.

Ch?

Says he's withdrawing himself

from consideration
for senior analyst.

Yes?

Says he doesn't want
the pressure.

Personally,
I think he's overreacting

to what happened to him
last night.

Yeah, I... I heard about that.

Well, if Patterson's out,

that makes you far and away
the leading contender.

I just wanted to let you know.

Thank you.

That's good to hear.

You don't seem
very pleased by this.

No, no. No, no, no.

I'm, uh, no,
I'm very pleased about it. Yeah.

I'm sorry that it happened
this way.

Well, don't let it obscure
the fact that, uh,

you've worked very hard
for this,

and that you certainly
deserve it.

Oh, hi, Mike.

Love to see it
when you're finished.

Finished?

When you're finished
with your redecorating.

- Is Alex upstairs?
- Who?

Uh, Tony. Whoever.

The guy who was staying
upstairs.

Oh, he re-upped.

What?

He re-enlisted in the Navy.

He and my brother
were ship mates.

That son of a bitch!

Hey, watch your fuckin' mouth,
man.

That Tony, he's a hell of a guy.

Do you know
why I took your stuff?

To show you that I could.

Put things back
in perspective for you.

What kind of a game
are you playing with my life?

This is my life.

I'm going to the police.

What are you gonna tell 'em?

That some guy you knocked over
a hamburger joint with

stole all your stuff?

I just want it back.

It's mine.

Like your promotion is.

Like Claire is.

Do you think you woulda gotten
any of it if it weren't for me?

Keep it.

Keep the stuff.

- So the stuff makes us even.
- Yeah.

The stuff makes us even.

Hi.

So what do you mean
you want to stay here?

Well, would you rather I not,
'cause I'm...

Oh, no, no, no. That's fine.

I'm just wondering what's wrong
with your place.

Nothing.

Oh.

Come on.

Morning.

Do you have any messages for me?

Here you go, Mr. Patterson.

Thanks, Kelly.

Mick, I'm sorry.

There's a call for you
on line 1.

She says it's very urgent.

- Who said it's urgent?
- I don't know.

She wouldn't say.

All right. Thank you.

- Uh, take a look at this, Carol.
- Okay.

Hello. Michael Boll.

Hey, sweetheart.

Don't pretend
you don't remember me.

What do you want?

I'm doing you a favor.

I don't want a favor.

I did what you said.
Your stuff's gone. I sold it.

Uh, but there's a lot of shit
that's no good to anybody.

Computer discs, pictures,
passport.

Do you want it?

Yes, I think that would be
a good idea.

Great.

You know the oil fields
off La Cienega?

Your stuff's in a box
by well number 43.

That's not exactly convenient.

Well, take it or leave it, pal.
It's on my way out of town.

You won't see me anymore.

Oh, your wallet's there, too.

My wallet?

Yeah, you left it on the bar
at the beach, remember?

I think your Diners Club
card's over the limit, though.

Adios, Mick.

I've gotta go someplace.
I'm sorry.

Can we pick this up
in the morning?

- Sure.
- Great.

- Is everything okay?
- Yep.

Leslie, can you help Carol
with all the...?

- Where shall I say you went?
- Don't.

Yeah. Sorry I asked.

Hi, pal.

I want you to remember
one thing.

You asked for this.

Don't touch that dial.

- Well, hello.
- Hello.

- Is he here?
- Yeah.

Where's all his stuff?

Is he moving?

Uh, well...

Yeah. Sort of.

Where is he?

- Oh, uh, he's in the bedroom.
- Good.

I wanna talk to him.

Great.

Come on down.

So where is he?

Stop the fooling around.

Mind if I play through?

Where is he?

Hail Mary, full of grace.
Our Lord is with Thee.

Blessed art Thou amongst women

and blessed is the fruit
of Thy womb, Jesus.

Whoa.

You thought we were even before.

Now we're even.

Before you do anything stupid,
like go to the police,

I'd think it through, pal.

'Cause I've covered
all the bases.

Elvis has left the building!

Michael, it's me.

Open the door.

Michael.

What's going on?

I thought you didn't wanna
come here.

Go away.

Michael.

Michael. Come on.

Michael.

Could you please stop that?

It's just a matter of time.

Get in bed with the devil,

sooner or later
you have to fuck.

Did it in my apartment
with my golf club.

Run out of my office

after getting some call
from some woman.

He's got my jacket. My jacket.

I call the police,
my jacket shows up in...

Oh, no, no. I can't be in this.

Blood all over my car
or in some dumpster.

Or my office.

No, the cops won't believe
this guy even exists.

Don't even think
about going to them.

Promise me you won't.

Oh, I need a smoke.

I need your help.

We have to take your car.
Mine's too small.

If anything happens,
the cops find out,

I can't promise what I'll do.

I don't wanna let you down.

What if somebody gets on?

Let's put it down here.

Okay.

Go get the car
and bring it around.

The keys.

- I left them upstairs.
- Jesus.

I was distracted, okay?

- Just hurry.
- Uh-huh.

Hurry.

I told you, I did not fuck her!

You took it out.

To me, that's fucking.

Okay. I fucked her once.

- Did you like it?
- God damn it, shut up!

I'm sick of it! Every week!

- How was it?
- What?

Was she good?

I don't wanna hear it.

Wait.

Just forget it, okay?

Wait.

Where do you think you're going?

That's it!
That's the end of it!

Come back here.

Not until you start trusting me.

Trust you?

You just admitted
that you fucked her.

Yeah, but you wouldn't even know
that if I hadn't told you.

Get lost!

You and your stupid dog!

Pisbo.

Over here.

Yeah?

What's this?

It's from Personnel.
It's my transfer.

- Your what?
- My transfer.

I'm moving down
to Financial Services.

- Why?
- Why don't you tell me, Mick?

I mean, something
is obviously wrong.

Something has been wrong.

You haven't even spoken
to me in clays.

And I can't handle it.
I'm sorry.

Leslie, wait,
let's talk about this.

What?

What?

What?

What?

Noth... noth... it's nothing.

All right.
See you later... Mick.

Tell you exactly what it means.
It means he followed us. Yeah.

He knows where we put the body.

He followed us the whole time?

Right.

That means he's seen me.
He knows where I live.

Oh, Michael, I can't be in this.

Well, what are we gonna do?

Michael?

I gotta call you right back.

It's what he does,
watches me squirm.

If I'm not squirming enough,
he gives me another jab.

I tell, I'll go back to jail.
I'll die there, I swear to God.

Tm gonna fuckin' hang.

And there's not a goddamn thing
I can do about it.

Unless I kill
the son of a bitch.

Of course, I can't
kill the son of a bitch,

unless I know where he is.

Now you're thinking like him.

Do you have a copy
of The Reader?

Do you?

Where?

Uh, yeah, um...

Here...

I know how to find
this son of a bitch.

No, Michael.

I mean, the police
have a file on me,

they've gotta have a file
on this guy.

We just have to get
his fingerprints.

You'll have to wait here.
You know that.

Yes.

I mean, if he sees you,
everything's fucked.

Yeah, I know.

So you'll wait here
while I try to get his prints.

Yeah.

Fun Loving Couple Seeks...

Petite...

I feel kinda funny about this,
Mr. Boll.

No, I swear, I'll get it back to
you first thing Monday morning.

Soon as I make the deposit.

I don't know.

I'm sending 40,000 dollars cash
for the weekend.

I just don't feel safe about it.

I would never ask except I'm
stuck, and I don't, you know,

I don't have anybody else
that I can go to.

If it was anybody else but you...

Thank you.

- Be careful, okay?
- Absolutely.

Michael?

Help!

Help! Michael!

Help! Help!

Michael!

Help!

- Hold on!
- Help!

Pismo? What happened?

He's here. He tried to kill me.

Wait.

Pismo?

I can't find him anywhere.

What happened out there?

Hey, I got the address
of his friend.

Manhattan Beach.

That's where I met him.

That's where he's staying.

Hey, wait.

Michael.

Would you wait up a minute?

Michael.

I do not want you
coming with me.

What is this? Jesus Christ.
Where the hell did you get that?

Go upstairs and go to bed.

What are you gonna do?

Michael, wait!

Would you just stop
for a second?

Go back inside.

Give me the gun.

Don't fuck with me, Pismo.
You don't know me anymore.

Yes, I do.

Give it to me
before you hurt somebody.

Go on. Take it.

Stop!

Do not step on the brake.

Go touch the pedal.

- Let me help you.
- You can't help.

Michael, please. If you do this,
he really has won.

Me. I'm next.

I'm gonna get us
something to drink.

Okay.

Be right back.

You make a very funny face
when you come.

Anyone ever tell you that?

Are you going someplace?

What's that?

Oh, my jacket.

Where were you gonna plant it?

In the dumpster at my office,
maybe?

Your apartment.

- Oh.
- Under the dumpster, actually.

Drop it.

You and I need to talk.

No. No.

No talking.

You're gonna die
with your mouth shut.

Then, do it.

You can't,
'cause I never showed you how.

Now I'm gonna show ya.

Oh!

Guess I got ya now, Mick.

Fuck you.

Get back.

I said, "Get back"!

Drop the knife in the water.

What is this?

If you were gonna kill me, you
would have back at the house.

I said, drop the knife
in the water.

You're not gonna use that.

I'm sorry.

What?

I'm sorry.

Sorry? You...
Fuck you! You sorry?

You sorry about what?
Killing Claire?

Trying to kill my brother?

Or maybe you're just sorry

for holding a guy down
while I beat him.

Fuck you, you're sorry!

You didn't beat anyone.

I beat Patterson!

You were passed out
in the car the whole time!

Knocked your hand on
the pavement to fuck with you.

Fuck with me?

I didn't make you do anything
that wasn't in you already.

People are such hypocrites.

They walk through
their whole lives

playing innocent to the day they
die, but they're not innocent.

I showed you that.
It's why I killed Claire, Mick.

My name is Michael.

Did you get that?

Every word.

Oh!

Watch out!

I called them.
They'll be here any minute.

Anything?

That was fast.

You can stay here.

What are you going to tell them?

I'm gonna tell them
what happened.
