O.K., THANKS, BYE.

Man: SHE FELL AND CHIPPED

A TOOTH, HER FRONT TOOTH,

AND SHE CUT HER LIP TERRIBLY.

HER TOOTH PUNCHED THROUGH HER

UPPER LIP AND SHE NEEDED

STITCHES, SO I MUST RETURN

TO THE HOSPITAL AND SEE HOW

SHE'S DOING.

I'M SORRY, I TRIED TO CALL YOU

THIS MORNING, BUT--

OH, NO, DON'T WORRY,

IT'S FINE.

WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO STAY

NO, NO, NO, THANK YOU.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENED TO

KALIKA, THE OVEN'S NOT WORKING,

I CAN'T MAKE THE BREAD,

EVERYTHING'S GOING WRONG,

IT'S A TERRIBLE DAY, TERRIBLE.

SO, TAKE THE DAY OFF.

I'LL PAY YOU, I'M SORRY.

WE'RE CLOSED, CLOSED!

SORRY.

Man: HI.

I SAID "HI."

OH. HI.

I HAVE THAT EXACT BOOK.

IT'S A GREAT READ.

DO YOU LIKE JAZZ?

YEAH, I LOVE JAZZ.

YEAH, I'VE BEEN GETTING

INTO IT MYSELF.

MOSTLY FUSION.

I LIKE FUSION.

FUSION IS MUCH MORE

ACCESSIBLE THAN ONE WOULD GUESS.

YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO IT OVER

AND OVER AGAIN UNTIL YOU FIND

THE RIGHT GROOVE THAT FITS YOUR

MOOD THOUGH, DON'T YOU THINK?

EXACTLY.

OH, I WISH MORE PEOPLE THOUGHT

LIKE YOU.

HA, EXACTLY.

HEY, I LIKE YOUR EARRINGS.

THEY'RE FROM MEXICO.

HMM.

DO YOU LIVE AROUND HERE?

NOT TOO FAR.

YOU LIKE TO HAVE FUN?

WHY?

OH, I DON'T KNOW.

MAYBE YOU KNOW.

KNOW WHAT?

IF YOU WANT TO SWING BY YOUR

FLAT ON THE WAY TO WORK AND HAVE

SOME FUN.

UH, NO, THANKS.

THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

WHAT, YOU WOULDN'T LIKE

A QUICKIE?

JUST SOME FUN?

WELL, THE BUS IS COMING ANY

MINUTE AND I'M ALL QUICKIED-OUT.

COME ON, WHAT'S WRONG?

I BET YOU'RE ONE OF THOSE

UPTIGHT "NEVER BEEN AWAY

FROM HOME" GIRLS.

NEVER HAD THE PROPER MAN

TO LOOSEN UP YOUR INHIBITIONS.

OR ARE YOU OF THE LESBIAN

PERSUASION?

THAT'S IT.

I'M A LESBIAN.

YOU HATE MEN BECAUSE

YOU CAN'T NORMALLY GET ONE,

IS THAT IT?

AND WHEN ONE FINALLY DOES MAKE

A BOLD OFFER, YOU CHANGE YOUR

SEXUAL ORIENTATION 'CAUSE YOU

HAVE NO IDEA HOW TO SUCK A COCK.

WELL, I CAN GET INTO THAT.

WATCHING YOU GO DOWN ON SOME

BIG-BREASTED BEAST WITH A HOT

TWISTING TONGUE, YOU EATING

HER PUSSY WHILE I STROKE

MY LARGE COCK, YOU FINGERING

HER WET CUNT.

AW, FUCK OFF THEN,

YOU REPRESSED WHORE!

FUCKING ASSHOLE.

I CAN'T BELIEVE HIM.

HI.

HEY-- AREN'T YOU THE GIRL

FROM THE SANDWICH SHOP?

IT, IT WAS CLOSED.

Clerk: 2.60, PLEASE.

THAT'S WHY I'M HERE BUYING

THIS CRAP, I'M NOT BEING

DISLOYAL. >> EXCUSE ME, MISS,

THAT'S NOT ENOUGH!

Man: HI...

HI.

YOU LEFT THAT STORE A CRIMINAL.

Woman: WHAT?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

YOU DIDN'T LEAVE

ENOUGH MONEY.

OH...

OH, DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

I PAID THE DIFFERENCE.

THANKS.

YOU'RE EGG SALAD ON BAGUETTE,

NO BUTTER.

OH, SO YOU DO REMEMBER ME.

OF COURSE I REMEMBER YOU.

YOU COME IN EVERY DAY.

I'M MICHAEL.

I'M ASHLEY.

YEAH, I KNOW YOUR NAME.

REALLY, HOW?

THAT'S WHAT YOUR BOSS

CALLS YOU. >> OH.

YOU'RE A FAST WALKER,

AIN'T YOU? ARE YOU IN A HURRY

TO GET AWAY FROM ME?

I'M JUST TRYING TO GET HOME,

I GUESS.

WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

ON YOUR BACK, LOOKS LIKE

SOMEONE THREW COFFEE ON YOU,

ON YOUR NECK.

SORRY!

DO YOU NEED SOME HELP WITH THAT?

WITH WHAT?

WIPING OFF YOUR BACK.

NO, I'M FINE.

IT'S NOT SO BAD, YOU'VE

ALMOST CLEARED IT ALL.

YOU'RE NOT WORKING TODAY?

NO.

THIS YOUR DAY OFF?

NOT REALLY.

OH.

MAY I HAVE SOME OF THAT?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

YOU HAVE A BIT OF

WHATEVER THAT IS

IN A HARD-TO-REACH PLACE--

I WAS JUST GOING TO WIPE IT OFF.

WHERE IS IT?

UH, RIGHT THERE.

YOU ALL RIGHT?

YEAH, I'M FINE, WHY?

WELL, YOU SEEM A LITTLE

DISTRACTED AND YOU'RE WALKING

IN CIRCLES.

YEAH, WELL, A MAN JUST THREW

A CUP OF HOT COFFEE ON ME.

A MAN THREW A CUP OF HOT

COFFEE ON YOU? >> YEAH.

WHY? WHY DID HE DO THAT?

WELL, I DON'T KNOW.

WELL, DID THIS JUST HAPPEN?

YES.

WHERE IS HE THEN?

WHO IS THIS-- PERSON?

I DON'T KNOW.

A STRANGER THREW A CUP

OF HOT COFFEE ON YOU? >> YES.

THIS NEEDS TO BE REPORTED.

NO, NO POLICE.

WHY NOT?

HE'S GONE... HE'S

DISAPPEARED... I DON'T WANT TO

REPORT IT, I JUST... I JUST WANT

TO GO HOME.

WHERE'S THE BUS STOP GONE?

IT'S THAT WAY... HOLD ON, I'M

CONCERNED ABOUT YOU, I'M

CONCERNED-- OH!

SHIT! OW...

ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

YES, FINE, THANK YOU.

Bunny man: WATCH WHERE YOU'RE

WALKING, MATE.

CAN I TAKE YOU TO LUNCH?

WHAT?

I'D VERY MUCH LIKE IT

IF I COULD TAKE YOU TO LUNCH.

UGH, NO, NOT YOU TOO.

I CAN'T DEAL WITH THIS

RIGHT NOW.

DEAL WITH WHAT?

ANOTHER WEIRD ENCOUNTER.

"WEIRD ENCOUNTER"?

I'M SERIOUS.

I'D LIKE TO TAKE YOU TO LUNCH.

WHAT,

RIGHT NOW?

YEAH.

BUT...

IT'S BARELY PAST BREAKFAST TIME.

WELL THEN, BREAKFAST.

I'M NOT HUNGRY, I'M... THE

ONLY THING I CAN THINK ABOUT IS

FINDING THE MAN, AND BASHING HIS

HEAD IN UNTIL THERE'S NOTHING

LEFT OF HIS MINISCULE BRAIN.

SOUNDS GREAT.

WE COULD DISCUSS THE DIFFERENT

WAYS YOU'D BASH THIS MAN'S

HEAD IN OVER A NICE CUP

OF PEPPERMINT TEA.

IT'LL BE RELAXING.

IT'S PROBABLY WHAT YOU NEED

TO DO, TO VENT AND TO RELAX.

WHERE WOULD WE GO?

I KNOW THE PERFECT PLACE,

IT'S QUITE NEAR.

NO, I'M COVERED IN COFFEE.

WELL, YOU COULD FRESHEN UP

IN THEIR TOILETS.

I'LL LEND YOU MY JACKET.

I SHOULD GO.

I'M SORRY, YOU'RE PROBABLY

RIGHT, I DIDN'T WANT TO PUSH YOU

INTO ANYTHING.

I JUST THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE NICE

TO DECOMPRESS, INSTEAD OF FUMING

ALONE AT YOUR FLAT... ASSUMING

YOU DON'T HAVE A ROOMMATE OR

BOYFRIEND OR COMPANION OF SOME

OTHER SORT TO COMMISERATE WITH.

A PET?

NO, I'M ALONE.

WE COULD TALK...

HAVE CONVERSATION.

YOU COULD TELL ME ABOUT WHAT

JUST HAPPENED TO YOU.

OH, THERE'S NO MUCH TO TELL.

HE THREW COFFEE, I'M ANGRY,

END OF STORY.

WELL, HEY-- MY BOSS FIRED ME

FROM MY JOB YESTERDAY AFTER

I HIRED A STRIPPER FOR

THE COMPANY'S ANNIVERSARY PARTY

THAT PRACTICALLY TURNED INTO

A LIVE PORNO SHOW--

WE CAN COMPARE STORIES!

YOU GOT FIRED FOR HIRING

A STRIPPER?

I'LL TELL YOU ALL ABOUT IT.

OVER TEA FOR TWO?

ME AND YOU?

[TOILET FLUSHES,

PAPER TOWEL TEARS OFF ROLL]

YEAH, O.K.

YEAH, I WILL.

ALL RIGHT.

THANKS.

YES, O.K., LISTEN, I GOTTA GO.

HI.

OH, THANKS FOR THE TEA.

Michael: "INAPPROPRIATE

BEHAVIOR" IS WHAT SHE SAID.

I MEAN, I THOUGHT SHE'D BE FINE

WITH A MALE STRIPPER.

OF COURSE, I DIDN'T REALIZE HE'D

GO ALL THE WAY, NAKED, WAVING

HIS GENITALIA AROUND, TRYING TO

GET MY BOSS TO TOUCH IT, RUBBING

IT AGAINST HER HEAD.

Ashley: WHAT DO YOU DO?

I'M A GRAPHIC DESIGNER.

OH.

I MAKE FLAT, UNAPPETIZING

HAMBURGERS LOOK APPETIZING AND

CERTAIN AGING ROCK STARS LOOK

10 YEARS YOUNGER.

LISTEN, I KNOW THIS MAY SEEM

FORWARD AND QUICK, BUT I WAS

WONDERING IF I COULD ASK A FAVOR

OF YOU.

YOU SEE, I HAVE A SISTER, AND

LAST NIGHT, WE GOT INTO A FIGHT

ON THE PHONE ABOUT, UH-- I STILL

DON'T KNOW QUITE WHAT ABOUT--

APPARENTLY, I MADE HER CRY.

I MADE MY SISTER CRY ALL NIGHT

UNTIL HER EYES WERE ALL PUFFY,

AT LEAST, THAT'S WHAT SHE TELLS

ME AND OF COURSE, I FEEL GUILTY

BECAUSE FRANKLY, MY SISTER LOOKS

TERRIBLE WITH PUFFY EYES.

SEE, MY SISTER'S VERY SENSITIVE.

YOU KNOW, WE HAVEN'T SEEN EACH

OTHER IN OVER THREE MONTHS.

IN PERSON, IT CAN BE QUITE

COMBUSTIBLE.

I UNDERSTAND.

DO YOU HAVE ANY BROTHERS

OR SISTERS?

I HAVE A HALF-BROTHER

AND A STEPSISTER.

BUT SHE'S NOT MY STEPSISTER

ANYMORE, SINCE THE DIVORCE.

OH.

WHICH IS FINE BY ME,

BECAUSE SHE WAS THE DEFINITION

OF THE WORD "CUNT"--

EXCUSE MY LANGUAGE.

NOT VERY NICE, WAS SHE?

IT'S A BIT OF

AN UNDERSTATEMENT.

WELL, I GUESS IT WOULD BE IF

YOU WERE DESCRIBING YOUR SISTER

AS A "CUNT".

WHAT ABOUT YOUR BROTHER?

MY HALF-BROTHER

AND I DON'T SPEAK.

OH.

BECAUSE HE CAN'T SPEAK.

HE'S GOT NO TONGUE.

BUT WE PROBABLY WOULDN'T

SPEAK ANYWAY.

HE'S QUITE RELIGIOUS, BUT NOT

IN THE WAY YOU'RE THINKING OF.

HE'S JOINED A CULT AND THEY'RE

NOT ALLOWED TO SPEAK TO THEIR

FAMILY MEMBERS.

DOES HE HAVE NO TONGUE

BECAUSE OF THE CULT?

OH, NO, NO, NO, NO, IT'S

SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED TO HIM

YEARS PRIOR, WHEN HE WAS

YOUNGER.

HE WAS TRYING TO FRENCH KISS

OUR DOG, AND...

OUR DOG BIT HIS TONGUE OFF,

AND THEN ATE IT.

NO-- IS THIS TRUE?

100%.

I WITNESSED IT MYSELF.

HE'S BEEN THROUGH AN AWFUL LOT,

MY BROTHER.

AFTER THAT, HE FELL OUT OF A

TREE AND DID PERMANENT MUSCLE

DAMAGE TO ONE OF HIS FEET.

HE WALKS WITH A LIMP.

HE TRIED TO CALL FOR HELP,

BUT OBVIOUSLY WITH NO TONGUE,

IT'S PRETTY DIFFICULT.

AND AROUND THE TIME HE FELL OUT

OF THE TREE, HE WAS EXPLORING

SOME FOREST BEHIND OUR HOUSE, SO

HE'S LOST IN THE FOREST FOR TWO

DAYS WITH NO FOOD OR WATER.

Michael: OR TONGUE.

OVERALL, HE DOESN'T HAVE A

VERY HIGH OPINION OF HIMSELF.

I CAN IMAGINE.

HIS FATHER, MY STEPFATHER,

WAS A COMPLETE BASTARD.

HE KEPT THE DOG, EVEN AFTER

THE TONGUE INCIDENT.

HE BLAMED THE WHOLE THING

ON MY BROTHER.

I STILL FEEL GUILTY ABOUT

NOT BEING ABLE TO GET HIS

TONGUE BACK.

BUT WHAT COULD I DO, YOU KNOW?

I WAS, YOU KNOW, A LITTLE GIRL.

OF COURSE NOT,

YOU WERE SCARED.

DEPRESSING, ISN'T IT?

NOT NECESSARILY, EH.

COULD BE WORSE.

SO, ABOUT MY FAVOR.

A FAVOR.

I WANTED TO MAKE THINGS RIGHT

WITH MY SISTER, AND I WAS

WONDERING IF YOU COULD HELP ME.

YOU SEE, TODAY'S HER BIRTHDAY

AND I WANTED TO BUY HER SOME

TYPE OF CLOTHING.

NOW, SHE'S YOUR SIZE AND I WAS

WONDERING IF YOU WOULD COME WITH

ME TO A SHOP AND HELP ME CHOOSE

HER SOME CLOTHING.

NOW, I... I KNOW THAT SEEMS

STRANGE, IT'S AN UNUSUAL

REQUEST, BUT... I'M NOT VERY

GOOD AT PICKING OUT WOMEN'S

CLOTHING, AS YOU MIGHT IMAGINE.

DON'T YOU LIKE THE TEA?

YOU'VE ONLY HAD ONE SIP,

AND THAT WAS IT.

I THINK THE MILK THEY USED

WAS OFF.

WELL, GO AND SAY SOMETHING.

I'M SURE THEY'LL MAKE IT

FOR YOU AGAIN.

OH, NO, NO, NO,

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

I HATE TO COMPLAIN.

IT'S REALLY EMBARRASSING.

IT'S JUST A CUP OF TEA.

WELL, I'LL DO IT FOR YOU.

NO, NO, NO, REALLY.

SO, WHAT CLOTHES SHOP ARE WE

GOING TO GO TO?

Michael: IT'S A PRIVATE

BOUTIQUE.

YOU NEED AN APPOINTMENT.

Man: * ARE YOU WEAK?

♪ 'CAUSE IT'S ALL CRASHED DOWN

♪ I COULDN'T FIND MY WAY

AROUND ♪

♪ GOT THE SUNLIGHT...

THANK YOU.

♪ AND I'M FEELIN' ALIVE.

Ashley, quietly: THERE'S NO

PRICES ON ANY OF THE CLOTHES.

Michael, quietly: I KNOW.

DON'T WORRY.

WHAT KIND OF COLORS DOES YOUR

SISTER LIKE?

I DON'T KNOW REALLY.

WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO HELP YOU

CHOOSE SOMETHING?

I THINK WE'RE FINE.

DOES SHE WEAR MORE SKIRTS

OR TROUSERS?

I'M NOT SURE.

WHAT ABOUT SHIRTS OR TOPS?

Michael: I DON'T KNOW.

SHE LIKES MODERN CLOTHES.

YEAH, OVERALL,

MICHAEL, WE ALL DO.

WHY DON'T YOU PICK OUT

SOMETHING YOU LIKE AND

THEN I CAN DECIDE ONE WAY

OR THE OTHER.

WELL, I MIGHT HAVE

COMPLETELY DIFFERENT TASTE

IN CLOTHES TO HER.

SHE DRESSES KIND OF LIKE YOU.

THESE ARE MY WORK CLOTHES.

I MEAN, YOU PROBABLY WANT

SOMETHING NICER, DON'T YOU?

YEAH.

I MEAN, YES.

WHAT DO YOU THINK OF THAT?

NOT BAD.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S SEE ONE OF

ONE OF THOSE, PLEASE.

...THAT'S NICE...

IT MIGHT BE A BIT TOO FORMAL.

LET'S TRY THIS.

Man: * HEY, DON'T LEAVE ME

HERE ♪

♪ DON'T LEAVE ME

♪ STARING WHERE YOU LEFT YOUR

BROKEN ARM ♪

Michael: CAN WE TRY THIS ONE?

♪ COME DOWN AWAY FROM THERE

♪ COME DOWN AWAY FROM WHERE YOU

LEFT THAT PART OF YOU FOR NOW ♪

Michael: MAYBE NOT.

COULD WE SEE, UH...

♪ IN YOUR IMAGINARY WORLD

♪ AS YOUR UNIVERSAL THREAD

FALLS APART ♪

♪ AND IN YOUR

IMAGINARY WORLD... ♪

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

GREAT, NICE...

DO YOU LIKE IT?

YEAH, VERY MUCH.

WELL, I'LL BUY

THAT ONE FOR YOU.

AND THE PURPLE TOP I'LL GET

FOR MY SISTER.

EXCELLENT CHOICE, SIR.

NO, NO, NO, NO.

YOU CAN'T BUY THIS FOR ME.

NO WAY.

LOOK, IT'S REALLY KIND,

THANK YOU.

BUT NO, WE CAME HERE TO SHOP

FOR YOUR SISTER.

LOOK, I WANT TO DO THIS

FOR YOU.

YOU REALLY HELPED ME OUT HERE,

I APPRECIATE IT.

AND THAT DRESS WAS MADE FOR YOU.

AND BESIDES, YOU DON'T WANT TO

WALK AROUND ALL DAY WITH STAINS

ALL OVER YOU, DO YOU?

IT LOOKS QUESTIONABLE,

ESPECIALLY THE COLOR OF THE

STAINS, AND BEFORE YOU SAY "NO"

AGAIN, I INSIST.

DONE DEAL, I INSIST.

RIGHT?

N--

IT'S A DONE DEAL.

THERE YOU ARE.

AND THESE ARE THE CLOTHES YOU

CAME IN.

THANKS. >> O.K.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

SURE.

LISTEN, I WAS THINKING.

ARE YOU HUNGRY?

A LITTLE.

BECAUSE I'M HUNGRY AND

I THOUGHT, WITHOUT PUSHING

ANYTHING, DO YOU WANT TO GET

SOMETHING TO EAT?

WELL... WH--, WH--, UM...

WHE--, WHERE?

...WE COULD EASILY GET A BUS OR

A TUBE.

OR I COULD MEET YOU THERE

OR SOMETHING.

DO YOU HAVE TO BE SOMEWHERE

ELSE OR WHAT?

NO, I...

I JUST...

WHAT?

I CAN'T REALLY AFFORD

A CAB FARE.

WELL, I CAN.

IT'S MY TREAT.

WE'RE ALMOST THERE ANYWAY, AND

LISTEN, WHEN WE GET TO THE

RESTAURANT, ORDER WHAT YOU WANT.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT THE COST.

I'LL PAY FOR LUNCH.

NO, NO, I ABSOLUTELY CAN'T

LET YOU DO THAT.

YES, YOU CAN.

I MEAN, THIS RESTAURANT IS NOT

ABOUT RESTRAINT, IT'S ABOUT

INDULGENCE, YOU KNOW-- GORGE!

BE DECADENT, EAT!

YOU KNOW, OH-- AND THE BEST

THING ABOUT IT IS FOR DESSERT,

THEY HAVE THIS

CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE.

IT'S ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC.

IT'S THEIR SIGNATURE DESSERT.

I LOVE CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE.

ORDER ANYTHING.

Waiter with Italian accent:

SO, THE SEAFOOD SALAD AS A

STARTER AND THE SMOKED COD WITH

MASHED SWEET POTATO AND THE

GRAPE, WHITE WINE CREAM SAUCE

FOR THE GENTLEMAN.

AND FOR THE LADY, THE SOUP OF

THE DAY, MOZZARELLA, POMODORO

AND BASIL SALAD, AND THE GARLIC

BREAD FOR STARTERS, FOLLOWED BY

THE WHOLE ROASTED ROSEMARY

CHICKEN WITH FRENCH STRING

BEANS, ROASTED BEETROOT AND

GRILLED ARTICHOKE ON THE SIDE.

AND TO DRINK, CHAMPAGNE.

PLEASE.

AND THE CHOCOLATE SOUFFLE.

OF COURSE, SOUFFLE.

THANK YOU.

YOU SURE YOU DON'T WANT

TO TRY ANYTHING ELSE?

DO YOU THINK THAT'S GOING

TO BE ENOUGH?

WE'LL BE ALL RIGHT.

SO YOU LIKED THE FOOD?

I'M A PIG, I KNOW.

NOT AT ALL.

I LOVE FOOD.

I DO TOO.

YOU HAVEN'T FINISHED

YOUR MEAL.

I'M TRYING TO KEEP

MY WEIGHT DOWN.

YOU DON'T LOOK LIKE

YOU HAVE A PROBLEM.

EXACTLY.

AND I'D LIKE TO

KEEP IT THAT WAY.

OOH.

EXCUSE ME.

SORRY.

THAT WAS REALLY GOOD.

IT'S FUNNY, BECAUSE I THOUGHT

PERHAPS YOU'D ORDER THE FISH AND

NOT THE WHOLE ROSEMARY CHICKEN.

WHY WOULD YOU ASSUME THAT?

BECAUSE I WAS GONNA ORDER

THE GRILLED FISH.

I LOVE GRILLED FISH.

I JUST WANTED TO...

TRY SOMETHING DIFFERENT.

WELL, IT'S A...

IT'S A GOOD QUESTION.

UM...

IT'S SOMETHING I FELT.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

IT'S NOT A PRESUMPTION,

JUST A... AN INSTINCT.

THAT I LIKED GRILLED FISH?

SORT OF. I...

IF I TELL YOU

HOW I THOUGHT I KNEW...

YOU PROMISE NOT TO JUDGE ME?

YES, OF COURSE.

I'M A BIT PSYCHIC.

SO... DO YOU TAKE

MEDICATION, OR...?

NO. THAT'S PSYCHOTIC.

I SAID PSYCHIC.

OH...

SORRY...

AS IN... YOU KNOW,

PREMONITIONS, AS IN TELLING

THE FUTURE... WELL, YOU KNOW,

NOT JUST TELLING THE FUTURE...

YOU KNOW, PICKING UP

ON THINGS ABOUT PEOPLE.

THERE'S OTHER THINGS

I KNOW ABOUT YOU.

WHAT THINGS?

ASK A QUESTION.

WHAT'S MY FAVORITE COLOR?

IS IT AQUA BLUE?

YES!

WHAT ELSE?

ASK ME A QUESTION.

CAN I HAVE MORE CHAMPAGNE?

YES.

O.K., WHAT'S MY

FAVORITE SNACK?

YOU MEAN, LIKE CRISPS

OR BISCUITS?

MORE SPECIFICALLY,

WHAT DO I EAT EVERY NIGHT

BEFORE I GO TO BED?

HMM, WELL...

THIS COULD BE A TRICK QUESTION.

YOU HAVE TWO COLORS

IN YOUR EYES.

YEAH.

ANSWER THE QUESTION.

IS IT A GRILLED

CHEESE SANDWICH?

YES!

ARE YOU REALLY PSYCHIC?

HOW COULD YOU KNOW THAT?

IT'S INSTINCT.

O.K., WHAT ELSE?

ASK ME A QUESTION.

ALL RIGHT.

DO YOU SEE THAT?

THERE'S A LITTLE SCAR THERE.

OH, YEAH.

ACTUALLY, THOUGH, UM...

DO YOU MIND IF I MOVE CLOSER?

NO.

OH, YEAH, I SEE THAT.

NOW... YOU'D LIKE ME

TO TELL YOU HOW YOU GOT IT.

YES, PLEASE.

WELL, THAT SCAR IS CLEARLY

THE DIRECT RESULT OF YOUR FIRST

AND LAST EVER GOLF LESSON.

NO.

GUESS AGAIN.

YOU GOT IT...

WELL, IT WAS AN ACCIDENT.

IT WAS WHEN YOU FELL OFF

YOUR BICYCLE WHEN YOU WERE

EIGHT YEARS OLD.

WELL...

WRONG ANSWER.

WELL, HOW DID YOU RECEIVE IT?

WELL, IF YOU DON'T KNOW,

I CAN'T TELL YOU.

THAT'S NOT FAIR.

NO.

NO, IT'S NOT FAIR.

Waiter: SO,

HOW WAS YOUR MEAL?

Michael: FINE.

THANK YOU.

Waiter: THANK YOU.

I'M SORRY.

DID I SAY SOMETHING

I SHOULDN'T HAVE?

NO.

I HAVE A CONFESSION.

TAKE ANOTHER SIP.

YOU'LL NEED IT FOR WHAT

I'M ABOUT TO TELL YOU.

THE REASON I KNOW SO MUCH

ABOUT YOU, ASHLEY, IS...

NOT BECAUSE I'M PSYCHIC.

IT'S BECAUSE... I'M AN ANGEL.

RIGHT...

AND TO PROVE IT,

I WILL DO SOMETHING MAGICAL.

I WILL MAKE SOMETHING

YOU DESIRE AT THIS MOMENT

APPEAR ON THIS TABLE.

AND I WILL DO IT...

RIGHT...

NOW.

Waiter: AND HERE'S

YOUR DESSERT...

AND TWO SPOONS.

ENJOY.

THANK YOU.

VERY FUNNY.

EXCUSE ME.

EXCUSE ME?

...A TINY BIT.

YOU THINK I SHOULD JUST LEAVE?

I KIND OF WANT TO STAY... BUT

HE'S, LIKE, STRANGE, YOU KNOW?

I MEAN, NOT STRANGE.

JUST... THIS WHOLE THING

IS STRANGE.

O.K., YOU HAVE TO GO.

LISTEN, I'LL SPEAK TO YOU LATER.

O.K., BYE.

THANKS A LOT.

I WAS JUST WONDERING...

UM, YOU KNOW THE GUY

I'M SEATED WITH?

UH, YES. OVER THERE.

DOES HE COME IN HERE A LOT?

WELL, I'VE SEEN HIM

HERE BEFORE.

HAVE YOU EVER SPOKEN TO HIM?

OH, NO, NOT REALLY, NO.

DOES HE USUALLY DINE ALONE?

UM... NO.

IT'S USUALLY WITH OTHER MEN...

OH, BUSINESSMEN TYPES.

OH, RIGHT.

WHY? ARE YOU HIS GIRLFRIEND?

OH, NO. >> OH.

OH, NO. NOTHING...

SORRY.

O.K.

IS THERE SOMETHING WRONG

WITH THE SOUFFLE?

NO. JUST STUFFED.

OF COURSE. GRAZIE.

UH, KEEP IT HERE.

WE'D LIKE TO STARE AT IT

FOR A MOMENT OR TWO.

I, UH, EMPATHIZE. GRAZIE.

YOU'VE BEEN VERY KIND.

TOO KIND, IN FACT.

I'M JUST A BIT DRUNK.

THAT'S WHY I DON'T DRINK.

I JUST GET TOO EMOTIONAL.

I'M DYING HERE.

I'M DROOLING LIKE AN ANIMAL.

I HAVEN'T TOUCHED IT.

ARE YOU SURE YOU DON'T

WANT TO TRY A BITE?

HONESTLY.

IT'S BETTER THAN SEX.

THAT'S A VERY HIGH

RECOMMENDATION.

GIVE ME A SPOON.

NOW, DON'T BE MODEST.

TAKE THE BIGGEST BITE EVER.

SHOVE THE WHOLE BLOODY

SOUFFLE IN YOUR MOUTH

IF THAT'S WHAT YOU DESIRE.

OH...

YOU'RE RIGHT.

I'M WHAT?

YOU'RE RIGHT.

Waiter: I'M GLAD YOU FOUND

YOUR APPETITE AGAIN.

WOULD YOU LIKE ME TO ORDER

A THIRD SOUFFLE?

NO, I THINK TWO IS OUR LIMIT.

THANK YOU.

WE'LL SEE. ENJOY.

YOU FIRST.

OH, NO, THAT'S THE BITE

I WAS GONNA HAVE.

Ashley: I DON'T REALLY KNOW

HOW TO THANK YOU, OR EVEN IF I

SHOULD, SEEING AS HOW NOW I'M

COMPLETELY ADDICTED TO THOSE

CHOCOLATE SOUFFLES.

I'M GONNA SPEND ALL MY MONEY

COMING BACK HERE AND INDULGING

AND TURNING INTO AN EVEN FATTER

PIG THAN I ALREADY AM.

NO.

THANK YOU VERY,

VERY MUCH FOR LUNCH...

AND ALL THIS, UM... RIGHT...

DO YOU FEEL BETTER?

ABOUT WHAT?

THE PRICK WHO THREW

COFFEE ON YOU?

YEAH, I...

I COMPLETELY FORGOT.

MIND YOU, THAT'S PROBABLY

THE CHAMPAGNE.

GOOD. SO...

SO, YEAH... >> I'LL, WELL...

WELL, I'LL...

WELL, I'LL PROBABLY SEE YOU

TOMORROW OR WHENEVER. >> YEAH,

BUT LISTEN... >> WHENEVER.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING RIGHT NOW?

JUST GOING HOME.

WELL, I HAVE TO GO SEE MY

SISTER AND GIVE HER THIS, AND...

WOULD YOU MIND COMING

ALONG WITH ME?

ARE YOU SURE?

YEAH.

I JUST... I DON'T WANT TO

DO THIS ALONE AND... YOU'RE

HERE, AND I'D REALLY, REALLY,

REALLY APPRECIATE IT IF YOU

COULD JOIN ME. >> WELL...

REALLY.

I'D LIKE IT IF YOU COULD COME.

I DON'T WANT TO FORCE YOU.

I... I'D JUST FEEL

MORE... COMFORTABLE.

YOU'RE... REALLY

RELAXING TO ME.

WELL, IF YOU PUT IT

LIKE THAT...

YEAH?

SURE.

GOOD.

O.K.

Michael: I DID THAT.

OH.

THAT'S VERY GOOD.

OH, SHIT!

UM... WE HAVE TO MAKE A DETOUR.

I'VE GOT A HAIR APPOINTMENT.

I'M SORRY, I FORGOT.

COOL.

HEY, WHERE...

WHERE'S THE OTHER PURPLE BAG,

THE ONE WITH YOUR CLOTHES IN IT

FROM THIS MORNING?

OH... OH.

I MUST HAVE LEFT IT

AT THE SALON.

OH, THAT'S ALL RIGHT.

WE'LL TURN BACK.

DON'T WORRY, DON'T WORRY.

THEY'RE JUST...

THEY'RE JUST OLD WORK CLOTHES.

WELL, IT'LL ONLY

TAKE A MINUTE.

NO, MICHAEL, SERIOUSLY.

I'LL PROBABLY NEVER

WEAR THEM AGAIN.

AND... I LIKE WEARING THIS.

AS LONG AS IT'S NOT TOO...

NO...

YOU LOOK GREAT.

Woman: FRANK!

UM... THIS IS THE HOUSE

I GREW UP IN.

MY SISTER JUST BOUGHT IT OFF MY

PARENTS ABOUT A MONTH AGO.

OH.

HI.

Michael: HI.

UM, ASHLEY, JUDITH.

JUDITH, ASHLEY.

COME IN.

FRANK!

UM, DO YOU WANT

SOMETHING TO DRINK?

I'VE GOT... SOFT DRINKS,

ORANGE JUICE, BEER?

YOU WANT A BEER?

SURE.

ASHLEY?

NO, I'M FINE, THANKS.

SOME WATER?

O.K.

FRANK!

OH...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

THANKS.

IT'S THE WORST FUCKING BIRTHDAY

I'VE HAD IN YEARS.

I BOUGHT YOU SOMETHING.

[CLASSICAL MUSIC

PLAYING FAINTLY...]

THANK YOU.

DO YOU LIKE IT?

YEAH.

I'LL FIND AN OCCASION

TO WEAR IT.

I THINK IT'S AN ALL-OCCASION

PIECE OF CLOTHING.

BESIDES, I THOUGHT IT WAS YOUR

FAVORITE DESIGNER.

NOT FOR A WHILE.

SO... WHY IS THIS

A TERRIBLE BIRTHDAY?

FRANK AND I GOT INTO

AN ARGUMENT.

WE HAD PLANS TONIGHT.

HE TOLD ME TO FUCK OFF.

WHAT HAPPENED?

HE'S COMPLETELY SELFISH,

IS WHAT HAPPENED.

I CALLED HIM A LOSER AND HE GOT

HIS BALLS IN A TWIST.

WHY DO YOU CALL HIM A LOSER?

HE QUIT HIS JOB, BITCH TITS.

DON'T CALL ME THAT.

WHY DID HE QUIT?

HE WANTS TO DEDICATE HIMSELF

TO BEING AN ARTIST.

HE DID THAT.

PAINTED IT.

HE'S GOOD, YEAH, SURE...

BUT HE QUIT A WELL-PAYING JOB

AS AN ACCOUNTANT.

HE'S HAD THE JOB FOR SEVEN

YEARS, AND I HAVEN'T EVEN

FINISHED THIS HOUSE.

AND YOU WOULDN'T BELIEVE

THE MESS IT WAS IN.

WASN'T IT?

YOU NEED A HAIRCUT.

ACTUALLY, I JUST HAD ONE...

BEFORE I CAME HERE.

SEVEN YEARS IS A LONG TIME.

WHAT?

TO STAY AT ONE JOB

IF YOU'RE AN ARTIST.

YOU SEE THOSE... ASH?

Michael: ASHLEY.

ASHLEY.

I MADE THOSE.

I ALSO MADE... THOSE...

THAT VASE...

AND I'VE BEEN WORKING EVERY DAY,

EXCEPT FOR WEEKENDS, OF COURSE,

FOR THE SAME PERIOD OF TIME

THAT FRANK WORKED...

YOU WERE LONGER. >> WHAT?

EIGHT OR NINE YEARS,

WASN'T IT?

RIGHT, MY POINT BEING...

WHAT DO I SAY TO YOU

ABOUT INTERRUPTING?

MY POINT IS, I'VE BEEN DOING

A DIFFICULT JOB-- SOME MIGHT

A DAY CARE

TEACHER FOR VERY SMALL CHILDREN

WHO DRAIN THE LIFE OUT OF YOUR

EVERY SINGLE DAY.

AND DO I GET TO QUIT MY JOB?

DO I GET TO NURTURE MY

TALENTS WITHOUT ANY ADDED

STRESSFUL EXTREMITIES?

DO YOU KNOW WHAT I GET?

THAT.

THAT'S GREAT...

WHATEVER IT IS.

AN UGLY TRINKET, MADE BY A

CLASSROOM OF UGLY LITTLE SPOILED

ROTTEN NASTY LITTLE CHILDREN.

BUT...

THE WEIRD PART...

IS THAT I'D ACTUALLY LIKE

TO HAVE A BABY ONE DAY.

I THINK I'D MAKE A GOOD MOTHER.

FRANK.

FRANK!

[WALKS UPSTAIRS, CLASSICAL MUSIC

CONTINUES FAINTLY...]

FRANK, OPEN THE DOOR.

COME OUT OF THE ROOM!

MY BROTHER AND HIS GIRLFRIEND

ASHLEY ARE HERE.

DON'T BE A FUCKING KILLJOY!

IS THERE A BABY IN THERE?!

[INHALES CIGARETTE DEEPLY,

EXHALES SLOWLY...]

I HAVE GIVEN UP.

HE'S BEING STUBBORN.

HE'LL COME OUT.

I'M NOT HIS GIRLFRIEND.

NO.

YOU LOOK FAMILIAR, THOUGH.

Michael, stuttering: WHERE

WERE, WERE... WHERE WERE...

WHERE WERE, WERE... THE TWO...

SLOW DOWN, ARTICULATE,

THEN TALK.

I KNOW HOW TO SPEAK, JUDITH!

HE'S SENSITIVE BECAUSE

HE HAS A STUTTER.

I DON'T HAVE A STUTTER.

YOU KNOW THAT.

WHA-WHA-WHA-WHATEVER HE SAYS.

WHAT WERE YOU TRYING TO ASK ME?

WHERE WERE THE TWO OF YOU

GOING TONIGHT?

MARCO PIERRE WHITE'S

NEW RESTAURANT.

IT WAS MEANT TO BE A SURPRISE.

HI, THERE.

HI, MICHAEL.

Michael: HEY.

HE'LL BE BACK.

HE'S DOING HIS REBELLION ACT.

LETTING OFF SOME STEAM

AT MY EXPENSE.

BUT HE'LL BE BACK...

AND HE'LL BE BACK AT HIS JOB.

FILL MY GLASS, WOULD YOU?

IT'S IN THE FRIDGE,

AND ADD SOME VODKA.

MORE WATER?

UH, NO, THANKS.

THAT'S NICE.

THANKS.

SO HOW DO THE TWO OF YOU

KNOW EACH OTHER?

HE'S A CUSTOMER.

A REGULAR CUSTOMER.

COME AGAIN?

I WORK IN A SANDWICH SHOP.

OH...

AND YOU'RE JUST... FRIENDS?

YEAH.

I SEE.

'CAUSE I WAS GOING TO SAY THAT

YOU'RE NOT NORMALLY HIS TYPE.

I DON'T MEAN THAT RUDELY.

YOU'RE NOT NORMALLY WHAT HE HAS

A RELATIONSHIP WITH...

WHEN HE HAS ONE...

WHICH... HAS BEEN RARE.

HE'S INSECURE BECAUSE...

HE WAS FAT ONCE.

OH.

HE'S CHANGED A LOT...

BUT I'M NOT SO CERTAIN

IT'S FOR THE BETTER.

HERE.

SO YOU MET EACH OTHER

IN THE SANDWICH SHOP?

YEAH.

ASHLEY MUST MAKE

A FINE SANDWICH.

YES, SHE DOES.

WHAT'S THE SECRET TO A GOOD,

DELECTABLE SANDWICH?

SOME PEOPLE SAY

IT'S THE FILLING, BUT...

I THINK IT'S IN THE BREAD.

WHAT DID YOU DO TO THIS?

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

IT TASTES SOUR.

IT DOES?

IT TASTES TERRIBLE.

LIKE IT'S PAST THE DUE DATE.

WELL, THERE WERE TWO CARTONS

IN THE FRIDGE.

AND YOU DIDN'T CHECK THE DATE

OR SMELL THE INSIDE

OF THE CARTON? >> NO.

YOU DID THIS ON PURPOSE.

NO, I DIDN'T.

YOU AND FRANK WANT TO

SPOIL MY BIRTHDAY.

NO, IT WAS AN

ACCIDENT, HONESTLY.

I FIND THAT VERY HARD

TO BELIEVE.

YOU'VE ALWAYS FOUND WAYS TO MAKE

THINGS TERRIBLE FOR ME!

JUDITH, YOU'RE THE ONE

THAT KEPT THE OTHER CARTON

IN THE FRIDGE!

IT WAS A MISTAKE, HONESTLY.

GIVE ME THE GLASS.

I'LL GET YOU A NEW ONE.

NO, IT'S FINE.

I'M FINE.

I ACCEPT YOUR APOLOGY.

ASHLEY...

COME HERE, I WANT TO

SHOW YOU SOMETHING.

WOW.

CAREFUL, IT'S A BIT MUDDY.

Ashley: CAN I MAKE

A CONFESSION?

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS.

WELL, IT'S MORE OF AN

ADMISSION ABOUT HOW I FEEL

ABOUT YOUR SISTER.

I CAN PROBABLY GUESS WHAT

YOU'RE GONNA SAY, BUT GO ON.

WAS SHE HAVING A BAD DAY

OR IS SHE ALWAYS LIKE THAT?

SHE'S ALWAYS HAVING

A BAD DAY.

DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.

I DON'T LIKE HER EITHER.

REALLY? THEN WHY DO YOU...?

WHY DO I SEE HER? >> YEAH.

WELL, I UNDERSTAND HER.

I MEAN, I UNDERSTAND HER

FRUSTRATIONS.

I ALWAYS HOPE THAT ONE DAY,

ONE DAY PERHAPS SHE'LL BE NICE

TO ME WITHOUT TRYING.

WELL, WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND

IS, WHY SHE ISN'T NICE TO YOU?

I DON'T KNOW.

SHE'S ALWAYS BEEN

TERRIBLE TO ME, ALWAYS BEEN

RUDE TO ME. >> A BULLY?

WHAT?

A BULLY.

YEAH.

I UNDERSTAND HOW THAT FEELS.

REALLY? >> YEAH.

Michael: WAIT--

CAN YOU SEE THAT?

CAN YOU READ WHAT THAT SAYS?

"MY... SISTER... DUCKS...

LARGE... ELEPHANT SOCKS?"

"MY SISTER SUCKS LARGE

ELEPHANT COCKS."

I WROTE THAT.

RECENTLY...?

NO...

YEARS AGO.

BUT... THIS IS WHERE I WOULD

COME TO, TO... I DON'T KNOW.

TO THINK.

TO BE ALONE.

TO START YOUR CAREER

AS A GRAPHIC DESIGNER

ON PARK BENCHES?

PERHAPS.

CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S STILL HERE.

MICHAEL, WHY HAVE YOU BEEN

SO KIND TO ME TODAY?

WHY SHOULDN'T I BE?

DON'T GET ME WRONG.

I'M NOT UNGRATEFUL.

IT'S JUST... REALLY NOT

WHAT I'M USED TO.

WELL, I LIKE YOU AND I'M SURE

YOU DESERVE A GREAT DAY, I MEAN,

AFTER THE COFFEE INCIDENT.

DO I NEED A REASON?

NO.

IT'S NOT OUT OF THE ORDINARY,

FOR ME, I WOULDN'T THINK, THE

WAY I'VE BEEN TREATING YOU.

ISN'T IT?

NO.

SHOULD I HAVE BEEN

TREATING YOU DIFFERENTLY?

NO.

I JUST THOUGHT...

I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE...

O.K., O.K.

YOU... YOU CAUGHT ME.

CAUGHT YOU? AT WHAT?

I HAVE ANOTHER CONFESSION.

WAIT.

BEFORE YOU TELL ME YOU'RE...

LIKE AN ANGEL OR ELVIS OR

SOMETHING, CAN I JUST TELL YOU

WHY THAT MAN THREW COFFEE

AT ME THIS MORNING?

OH, UH... SURE.

I WAS STANDING AT THE BUS

STOP READING A BOOK, AND THERE

WAS A GUY STANDING THERE WITH

A CUP OF COFFEE.

SO HE STARTS TO TALK TO ME, AND

AT FIRST IT'S ABSOLUTELY FINE,

YOU KNOW, HE'S...

JUST CHITCHAT.

BUT THEN HE STARTS TO...

ASK ME DID I WANT TO GO HOME

WITH HIM, YOU KNOW, FOR SEX.

HE STARTS USING WORDS LIKE

"FUCK" AND "CUNT" AND...

TALKING ABOUT HIS LARGE COCK.

SO I TURNED TO WALK AWAY...

AND HE JUST... THREW A WHOLE CUP

OF COFFEE AT ME.

WHAT AN ARSEHOLE.

BUT, THE THING IS, THE THING

THAT MAKES IT WORSE, IS THAT...

I DIDN'T RESPOND TO THE

SITUATION CORRECTLY.

YOU KNOW, IT'S

PARTIALLY MY FAULT.

WHY?

BECAUSE, IF I... IF I'D

REACTED DIFFERENTLY, MAYBE HE

WOULDN'T HAVE DONE THAT.

YOU'RE NOT BLAMING YOURSELF

FOR WHAT HE DID, ARE YOU?

THAT IS FUCKING RIDICULOUS.

WHAT ELSE COULD YOU DO

BUT WALK AWAY?

TAKE HIM UP ON HIS OFFER?

I DON'T KNOW.

I COULD HAVE SAID SOMETHING.

LIKE WHAT?

I DON'T KNOW. SOMETHING.

YOU'RE A STUPID, IDIOTIC

IMBECILE. >> I KNOW!

NO, YOU'RE A STUPID, IDIOTIC

IMBECILE BECAUSE YOU'RE NOT

TRUSTING YOUR INSTINCTS.

YOUR INSTINCTS TOLD YOU

TO WALK AWAY AND YOU DID.

THAT'S WHY I'M A STUPID,

IDIOTIC IMBECILE.

NO. WALKING AWAY WAS SMART.

THAT WAS THE BEST THING

YOU COULD HAVE DONE.

WHY WOULD ANYONE SUBJECT

THEMSELVES TO THAT KIND

OF VERBAL ABUSE?

WHO KNOWS WHAT YOU COULD HAVE

SAID OR DONE TO MAKE

A DIFFERENCE?

THE POINT IS THAT YOU

WALKED AWAY, AND IT WAS FOR

A GOOD REASON, NOT A BAD ONE,

AND YOU CANNOT FEEL GUILTY

ABOUT THAT, RIGHT?

RIGHT?

RIGHT.

GOOD.

RIGHT.

GOOD.

SO, WHAT WAS YOUR CONFESSION?

OH, MY CONFESSION.

UM... I'M DOING THIS

FOR A REASON.

YOU KNOW, THE LUNCH,

THE CLOTHES, THE DAY.

I KNEW IT.

AND...?

SOMEONE WANTS YOU

TO HAVE A GREAT DAY.

WHAT?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

SOMEONE WANTS YOU TO HAVE

A GREAT DAY AND THAT'S THAT.

WHO?

I'M NOT TELLING.

WHY NOT?

WELL, I WILL YOU TELL YOU,

BUT... NOT UNTIL YOU

WANT TO GO HOME.

WELL... WHAT IF I WANT TO

GO HOME NOW?

DO YOU?

NO.

I'M ENJOYING MY TIME WITH YOU.

GOOD.

I'M VERY MUCH ENJOYING

MY TIME WITH YOU, TOO.

EVEN THOUGH YOU'RE DOING THIS

FOR SOMEONE ELSE?

IT'S NOT AS SIMPLE AS THAT.

BUT YES, I'M ENJOYING MYSELF.

ARE YOU GETTING PAID

TO DO THIS?

NO.

BUT IT'S SOMEONE I KNOW?

SORT OF. YES.

WHY WOULD SOMEONE WANT YOU

TO MAKE SURE I HAVE A GOOD DAY?

I WILL TELL YOU,

AND IT SHOULD MAKE SENSE, BUT DO

YOU REALLY WANT TO KNOW NOW,

OR JUST A LITTLE LATER?

WHAT ELSE ARE WE GONNA DO?

LOTS OF THINGS.

ANYTHING.

I CAN WAIT.

IF YOU WANT ME TO

TELL YOU NOW, I WILL.

NO, I CAN WAIT.

WAIT. GOOD.

FOR A MINUTE THERE, I THOUGHT

YOU LOOKED FAMILIAR.

DO I?

KIND OF.

DO WE KNOW EACH OTHER?

BESIDES FROM THE

SANDWICH SHOP? >> YEAH.

I THOUGHT WE WERE GONNA

WAIT UNTIL I TOLD YOU

EVERYTHING.

OH, O.K., WE'RE GONNA

WAIT! FINE.

NOW... SINCE I'VE

BEEN PRETTY MUCH DECIDING

WHAT OUR DAY HAS BEEN THUS FAR,

WHY DON'T YOU DECIDE

WHAT WE DO NEXT?

MONEY'S NO OBJECT.

WHATEVER YOU WANT TO DO,

WE'LL DO IT.

WELL, THAT'S OPENED

A CAN OF WORMS.

WELL... WITHIN REASON.

SO WE... CAN'T FLY

TO THE CARIBBEAN?

IF THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT.

YOU'RE JOKING.

NO.

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?

I DON'T KNOW.

I DO HAVE AN IDEA.

WHAT IS IT?

WELL, IT'S A LITTLE

BIT SILLY.

TRY ME.

I'VE GOT THIS FRIEND CALLED

SAMMY, AND HE'S HAD SOME

PROBLEMS RECENTLY--

MONEY PROBLEMS--

AND HE'S HAD TO SELL HIS SAX.

HE'S A MUSICIAN.

AND WELL, I SAW THIS SAX IN A

PAWN SHOP WINDOW.

I COULD PAY YOU BACK BIT BY BIT.

I MEAN, IT'S NOT VERY EXPENSIVE.

IT'S JUST MORE

THAN I COULD AFFORD.

OH...

OH, GOD, THAT'S A REALLY

TERRIBLE IDEA.

I'M SO SORRY.

THAT IS SO EMBARRASSING.

GOD, I DIDN'T MEAN TO MAKE YOU

OUT TO BE THIS SORT OF FINANCIER

OF OTHER PEOPLE'S PROBLEMS.

I'M SORRY-- FORGET I EVER

SAID IT.

YOU'VE DONE ENOUGH.

THANK YOU.

YOU'VE DONE ENOUGH TODAY.

PLEASE FORGET IT.

IS THAT WHAT YOU WANT?

YOU COULD DO ANYTHING...

AND THAT'S WHAT YOU'D CHOOSE?

TO BUY A SAXOPHONE

FOR SOMEONE YOU KNOW?

THAT'S WHAT YOU WANT TO DO?

YES.

HEY, SAMMY, IT'S ASHLEY.

YEAH, I'M DOWNSTAIRS.

IN FRONT OF YOUR BUILDING...

AND I HAVE A SURPRISE FOR YOU.

COME IN.

NICE TO SEE YOU.

THIS IS MICHAEL.

NICE TO MEET YOU.

HAVE A SEAT.

DO YOU WANT ANYTHING TO EAT

OR DRINK, OR FOOD?

NO, I'M FINE.

ME TOO, THANKS.

ASHLEY, I FOUND THE TOY

I WAS LOOKING FOR.

COOL, ISN'T IT?

HERE... HOLD IT.

NO, DON'T WIND IT.

IT HURTS THE MECHANISM.

IT'S... OLD, YOU KNOW.

YOU KNOW, I NEVER THOUGHT

I'D GET...

BECOME ADDICTED TO THIS TYPE OF

HOBBY, YOU KNOW, BECAUSE, WELL,

THAT'S ALL IT IS...

BUT HERE I AM, MANY YEARS LATER

IN A FLAT FILLED WITH POINTLESS

WIND-UP TOYS.

IT'S ALL SO SILLY...

OR SO SAY MY FAMILY.

YOU KNOW, THEY THINK I'M...

YOU HAVE A LOT OF

GREAT THINGS HERE.

IT'S JUST BIZARRE, I THINK.

WEIRD.

Ashley: SO...?

SO, YOU SAID ON THE PHONE...

I HAVE A SURPRISE.

WHAT, DID YOU WIN

THE LOTTERY?

NO...

I WANTED TO SURPRISE YOU

WITH THIS.

THIS ISN'T A GIGANTIC

WIND-UP TOY, IS IT?

OPEN IT.

NOTHING'S GONNA

JUMP OUT AT ME?

OPEN IT.

WOW...

IS THIS FOR ME?

WOW, MAN.

WOW.

IT'S AN ALTO?

OF COURSE.

WOW...

IS THIS FOR ME?

YEAH.

IT'S ALL YOURS.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT HAPPENED

TO MY LAST SAX?

Michael: NO.

WOULD YOU CARE TO KNOW?

SURE.

ASHLEY, TELL HIM.

HE SOLD IT.

NO.

THAT'S NOT WHAT HAPPENED.

BUT YOU TOLD ME...

I LIED.

I DIDN'T WANT YOU

TO WORRY ABOUT ME.

WHAT HAPPENED?

WOW...

OH, LOOK AT THIS.

HOW MUCH DO I OWE YOU?

NOTHING-- IT'S A GIFT.

OH, NO, THAT WON'T DO.

I'LL NEED TO PAY YOU BACK.

NO, IT'S MY GIFT TO YOU.

OH, WOW...

I CAN'T STOP SAYING "WOW."

WELL... UM...

WHAT HAPPENED WAS...

UH, WITH THE LAST SAX I HAD...

I WAS BUSKING-- PLAYING ON THE

STREETS FOR SOME EXTRA DOUGH.

LITTLE HAT IN FRONT OF ME.

HUMILIATING ALL THE SAME,

BUT WORTH AN EXTRA QUID OR TWO

AT THE END OF THE DAY.

AND SO THERE I WAS IN COVENT

GARDEN, WITH MY SAX AND MY

LITTLE HAT, PLAYING JOHN

COLTRANE'S "BLUE TRAIN,"

AND THIS GANG OF YOUTHS--

MUST HAVE BEEN 12 YEARS OLD

AT THE MOST... MUST HAVE BEEN

ABOUT FIVE OF THEM...

PISSED DRUNK OR ON SOME TYPE

OF DRUG, LITTLE BASTARDS...

THEY SURROUNDED ME,

STARTED IN WITH ME, GETTING

RIGHT IN MY FACE, SAYING THAT

I'M SHIT AT MY PLAYING...

SAYING THAT I WAS THE WORST

FUCKER WHO EVER PLAYED

AN INSTRUMENT.

ONE OF THEM SAID THEY WERE GOING

TO CUT MY LIPS OFF IF I DIDN'T

STOP PLAYING AND PACK IT IN.

STARTED QUIETLY CHANTING THAT I

WAS SHIT, OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

"YOU FUCKING SHIT PLAYER,"

WAS WHAT THEY KEPT REPEATING.

"YOU'RE SHIT,

YOU'RE SHIT, YOU'RE SHIT,

YOU'RE SHIT," UNTIL I COULDN'T

TAKE IT ANYMORE.

SO I... GRABBED MY LITTLE HAT

AND I WAS ABOUT TO LEAVE, 'CAUSE

NO ONE WAS DOING ANYTHING ABOUT

IT... OF COURSE...

THEY WEREN'T YELLING,

SO MAYBE... NOBODY KNEW

THAT THERE WAS ANYTHING WRONG.

BUT I BENT DOWN TO PICK UP MY

HAT AND THAT'S WHEN ONE OF THE

LITTLE BASTARDS GRABBED MY SAX

AND THEY STARTED TO BASH IT

AGAINST THE PAVEMENT

OVER AND OVER AGAIN.

THEY DID THIS.

OH, MY GOD...

OH, NO, BUT I DID THIS.

OH.

DID YOU GO TO THE POLICE?

DID YOU REPORT IT?

GETTING INTIMIDATED BY A BUNCH

OF 12-YEAR-OLDS OR REPORTING

THAT YOU'VE BEEN INTIMATED

BY A BUNCH OF 12-YEAR-OLDS?

BUT THIS IS...

WOW...

IT WASN'T ONLY ME.

WHAT? WHAT DO YOU MEAN?

NOTHING.

JUST... IT WAS FATE

THAT WE FOUND THE SAX.

YOU KNOW IT'S NOT NEW, BUT I

THINK IT'S IN PRETTY GOOD SHAPE.

LET'S TEST IT OUT...

SHALL WE?

THAT SOUNDS PRETTY GOOD.

YEAH...

I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHAT THOSE

LITTLE BUGGERS HAD AGAINST ME.

IT WAS A JOKE.

I'M JUST KIDDING.

OH... SORRY.

HEY...

ASHLEY, WHY DON'T YOU GET

ON THE PIANO?

O.K.

YOU PLAY PIANO?

Sammy: YEAH.

WE PLAY TOGETHER.

SOMETIMES SHE DOES GIGS

WITH FRIENDS OF MINE.

SHE'S PRETTY GOOD.

YOU'VE NEVER HEARD HER PLAY?

NO.

I JUST WORK AT THE SANDWICH

SHOP TO PAY A FEW EXTRA BILLS.

SAMMY AND I ARE PROFESSIONAL

STRUGGLING MUSICIANS.

Michael: OH...

COOL.

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO PLAY?

IT WAS SOMETHING

I WANTED TO DO FOR YOU.

WE CAN'T STAY HERE.

WE HAVE TO GO.

WELL, I WANT TO SEE

I JUST WANT TO KNOW

WHAT HE LOOKS LIKE.

GIVE ME TWO MINUTES.

WHICH ONE IS HE?

HE'S GOT A PURPLE TIE

AND SORT OF DARK HAIR

AND HE'S STANDING AT THE BAR.

[MUSIC PLAYING, CONVERSATIONS,

LAUGHTER...]

Michael: [INDISTINCT

UNDER MUSIC...]

[GROUP CONVERSES

INDISTINCTLY...]

UM, EXCUSE ME.

HELLO?

HI. UH, I'VE GOT A STORY

I'D LIKE TO...

I'D LIKE TO SHARE WITH YOU.

IT PERTAINS TO ALL OF YOU.

I MEAN, IT'S... ON SOME LEVEL,

IT RELATES TO ALL OF YOU.

UM, PLEASE LET ME TELL YOU THIS.

I'D REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

WOULD YOU? PLEASE?

I'M NOT A MANIAC, I'M NOT

DRUNK, I'M NOT ON DRUGS, I'M,

YOU KNOW, I'M A NORMAL PERSON.

JUST... I WANTED TO SHARE THIS

STORY WITH YOU.

YES. >> SURE, GO AHEAD.

THANK YOU. YES?

THAT'S FINE. YEAH.

THERE'S THIS GIRL, RIGHT?

AND ONE MORNING, SHE WAS AT

WORK, EXCEPT THERE IS NO WORK

THIS MORNING BECAUSE THE PLACE

WHERE SHE NORMALLY WORKS, THE

CAFE, IS CLOSED.

SO SHE WALKS TO THE BUS STOP.

SHE'S ALONE.

UNTIL THIS MAN TURNED UP.

THIS GUY, HE'S YOUR AVERAGE,

EVERYDAY... GUY.

SO HE STARTS CHATTING

THIS GIRL UP.

HE'S CHATTING TO HER, BUT SHE

WANTS NONE OF IT.

SO HE GETS KIND OF LASCIVIOUS,

YOU KNOW?

HE'S TRYING TO GET HER

HOT AND BOTHERED.

HE'S TRYING TO GET HER TO COME

HOME FOR A QUICK FUCK AND HE'S

USING WORDS LIKE "FUCK," "CUNT,"

ALL THAT SORT OF THING.

NOW, THE GIRL, SHE'S STARTING TO

FEEL THREATENED.

SHE WANTS TO BE LEFT ALONE, BUT

THIS GUY IS INSISTENT.

HE WON'T LEAVE HER ALONE.

SO SHE DECIDES TO WALK AWAY.

AND WHEN SHE DOES-- THIS IS

THE BIT, UM, I LEFT OUT--

THE GUY IS HOLDING A HOT CUP OF

COFFEE THE WHOLE TIME HE'S

TALKING TO HER.

A HOT LATTE WHILE HE'S HARASSING

THIS GIRL.

HE THROWS THE HOT COFFEE ALL

OVER HER.

IT'S ON HER HEAD, ON HER NECK,

HER BACK... IT'S HOT,

IT BURNS HER SLIGHTLY.

NOW... WHAT'S YOUR OPINION

OF THIS MAN?

UM, CRUDE.

HE SOUNDS CRUDE.

HE NEEDS HIS BALLS CUT OFF

AND SHOVED DOWN HIS THROAT.

Michael:

RIGHT, GREAT.

THAT'S FANTASTIC, O.K., NOW.

AT THIS POINT, LET ME JUST CUT

TO THE CHASE.

LET ME TELL YOU WHY I'M TELLING

YOU THIS STORY.

WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THAT THIS

HAPPENED THIS MORNING?

AND THAT THIS MAN...

AT THE BUS STOP...

WAS SITTING IN THIS GROUP?

THAT THIS COFFEE THROWER...

WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THAT

THIS COFFEE THROWER,

THIS COFFEE TOSSER...

WAS HIM?

WHAT?

THAT'S RIDICULOUS.

HE'S A SOLICITOR

FOR ABUSED WOMEN.

BUT IT'S HIM.

YEAH.

AND I JUST THOUGHT YOU SHOULD

KNOW WHAT HE DID THIS MORNING

WITH HIS MORNING CUP OF COFFEE.

I JUST WANTED YOU FINE PEOPLE

TO KNOW THE KIND OF COMPANY

YOU KEPT.

THANKS FOR YOUR TIME.

Woman: IS THIS TRUE?

I'LL DEAL WITH IT.

HEY.

IS THERE SOMETHING YOU WANT TO

SAY TO ME?

IS THERE SOMETHING YOU WANT

TO SAY TO ME?

WELL, YOU CAN TELL YOUR

FRIEND I FUCKING HATE JAZZ.

I DON'T KNOW.

WHAT IS THIS MAN SAYING

ABOUT YOU?

I DON'T KNOW, I'VE NEVER SEEN

HIM BEFORE.

YOU TELL ME THIS HAS HAPPENED

BEFORE AND I SAY NOTHING ABOUT

IT AND NOW I DON'T KNOW

WHAT TO BELIEVE!

LOOK, I DON'T EVEN KNOW

WHO THAT GUY IS.

I'VE NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE!

I'VE NEVER SEEN HIM BEFORE.

DAPHNE, JUST SIT DOWN!

WHERE'D YOU GO?

WHAT HAPPENED?

I WENT DOWNSTAIRS.

WE KIND OF HAD A LITTLE CHAT.

WHAT?

I JUST TOLD HIS FRIENDS WHO

WERE WITH HIM WHAT HE DID THIS

MORNING.

YOU'RE JOKING.

YOU SPOKE TO HIM?

YEAH, IN A ROUND ABOUT SORT

OF WAY.

I JUST TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED

TO YOU AND LET THEM KNOW

THAT HE WAS THE ONE RESPONSIBLE.

OH, MY GOD, AND WHAT WAS

HIS REACTION? THE COFFEE

THROWER'S REACTION?

I'D SAY HE WAS SHOCKED,

DEFINITELY SHOCKED.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS,

BUT APPARENTLY HE'S A SOLICITOR

FOR ABUSED WOMEN.

OH, MY GOD.

FUCK'S SAKE!

DID I DO THE WRONG THING?

OH, NO, NO.

I'M SORRY.

I SHOULDN'T HAVE DONE THAT.

I'M SORRY.

NO, NOT AT ALL.

SHOULD I GO BACK?

I MEAN, DO YOU WANT ME

TO PUNCH HIM, OR SOME...?

NOT AT ALL.

LOOK, HUMILIATION IS BETTER

THAN VIOLENCE.

IT LASTS LONGER.

IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU HANDLED IT

REALLY WELL. >> GOOD.

THANK YOU.

NOW... IS IT POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO

PLEASE TELL ME WHO THE PERSON

WHO WANTS ME TO HAVE

A GREAT DAY IS?

I'M GOING CRAZY HERE.

SURE.

LET'S... LET'S GO

SOMEWHERE ELSE.

WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE, A BEER?

SURE, ANY.

I'LL, UM, TAKE IT

OVER TO YOU. >> O.K.

HI, CAN I GET

TWO BEERS, PLEASE?

CORONAS, FINE?

PERFECT.

SO...

SO, DO YOU RECOGNIZE THE KID

IN THE PHOTOGRAPH?

YOU CAN PICK IT UP.

BECAUSE I HAVE ANOTHER ONE

OF MY CONFESSIONS.

IT'S HOW I KNOW THAT YOUR

FAVORITE COLOR IS AQUA BLUE AND

THAT YOU LIKE GRILLED CHEESE

SANDWICHES.

IT'S FROM YOUR CHILDHOOD.

I ALSO KNOW HOW THAT SCAR

GOT ON YOUR FOREHEAD.

I DO KNOW HOW YOU RECEIVED IT.

HE GAVE IT TO YOU, DIDN'T HE?

THE BOY IN THE PHOTO.

HE WAS PART OF THE GROUP OF

KIDS AT SCHOOL THAT BULLIED ME.

HE PUSHED ME HARD AGAINST A TREE

ONCE AND THAT'S WHY I HAVE

THIS SCAR.

DO YOU REMEMBER HIS NAME?

WHAT HAS HE GOT TO DO

WITH TODAY?

WELL, APPARENTLY...

HE FOUND OUT WHERE YOU WORKED

AND... HE FELT GUILTY

ABOUT HOW HE TREATED YOU

ALL THOSE YEARS AGO.

AND SO HE WANTED YOU TO HAVE A

GREAT DAY, WHICH HE PROVIDED.

DIDN'T MATTER WHICH DAY,

COULD BE ANY DAY.

IF ANYBODY DESERVES IT, YOU DO.

SO WHY DIDN'T HE DO IT

HIMSELF?

BECAUSE IF HE TOLD YOU THE

TRUTH OR IF YOU RECOGNIZED HIM,

HE WAS AFRAID YOU MIGHT NOT BE

SO... AGREEABLE.

DID HE ARRANGE FOR THAT MAN

TO THROW COFFEE ON ME

THIS MORNING?

NO.

DO YOU REMEMBER HIS NAME?

IS IT MICHAEL?

MICHAEL FRATTI.

AND WHAT'S YOUR FULL NAME?

MICHAEL FRATTI...

"FATTY FRATTI"...

"THE FARTY FAT"...

"MICHAEL FAT"...

THOSE WERE MY NAMES IN SCHOOL.

I... I DON'T GET THIS.

GET WHAT?

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

IS THIS SOME SORT OF AN APOLOGY?

YES.

AND SO I'M JUST SUPPOSED TO

FEEL... CHARMED BY WHAT'S

HAPPENED TODAY?

I'M SUPPOSED TO FORGET WHAT

HAPPENED TO ME EVERY DAY OF MY

LIFE WHEN I WAS IN SCHOOL?

THE TORMENT? THE ABUSE?

THE SCAR YOU GAVE ME?

I'M SUPPOSED TO FORGET HOW YOU

AND YOUR FRIENDS TREATED

MY BROTHER?

I'M SUPPOSED TO JUST PUT ON A

WARM SMILE AND WALK OVER THERE

AND GIVE YOU... A HUG?

I'M JUST SUPPOSED TO FORGET

EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED?

BECAUSE YOU FEEL GUILTY

15 YEARS LATER?

YOU HAVE A STRANGE WAY OF TRYING

TO AMEND THE PAST.

I WANTED TO APOLOGIZE.

IT WAS IMPORTANT TO ME.

THAT'S ALL?

YOU JUST WANTED TO APOLOGIZE?

YEAH.

THAT'S ALL TODAY WAS?

AN APOLOGY?

I'VE OFTEN WONDERED WHAT WOULD

HAPPEN IF I CONFRONTED YOU AND

YOUR FRIENDS.

I'VE OFTEN WONDERED WHAT I'D DO

TO YOU, IF GIVEN THE

OPPORTUNITY.

GO AHEAD... DO IT.

OH, I'VE DESTROYED YOU IN MY

HEAD, TIME AND TIME AGAIN.

OVER AND OVER AND OVER.

I'VE PUNCHED YOU.

I'VE KICKED YOU.

I'VE EVEN STABBED YOU.

BUT DO YOU KNOW WHAT?

I ALWAYS REACH THE SAME

CONCLUSION, AND DO YOU KNOW

WHAT THAT CONCLUSION IS?

FUCK YOU...

FOR MAKING A FOOL OF ME

ONE LAST TIME.

DON'T YOU SEE?

YOU'VE TURNED ONE OF THE BEST

DAYS OF MY LIFE INTO ONE

OF THE WORST.

YOU SHOULD HAVE KEPT YOUR LITTLE

SECRET TO YOURSELF.

I CAN'T...

...I JUST LEFT HIM

SITTING THERE...

ON HIS OWN.

IT WAS SUCH

A GREAT DAY, YOU KNOW?

I GUESS I JUST THOUGHT...

THAT MAYBE IT WOULD END

IN A KISS, YOU KNOW?

I JUST FEEL SO PATHETIC.

HUMILIATED, YOU KNOW?

AND I FEEL ANGRY TOO,

AND SAD, AND...

I REALLY KIND OF WANT TO TALK

TO HIM... BUT I DON'T, YOU KNOW?

I JUST FEEL SO CONFLICTED.

THEY HAD TO PUT TWO, NO,

THREE STITCHES INTO MY LIP.

THEY'RE VERY TINY...

LITTLE TINY ONES.

THE DOCTOR WHO STITCHED ME UP

HATED THE SIGHT OF BLOOD.

CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT?

NO.

Michael: HI.

HI.

CAN WE TALK?

I THINK HE

WANTS SOME FOOD.

I DON'T CARE.

Kalika: DO YOU WANT

SOME FOOD?

NO.

Kalika: PAPA, THERE'S A MAN

OUTSIDE AND HE'S STARING AT

ASHLEY, AND HE DOESN'T WANT

ANY FOOD.

WHAT?

ASHLEY, ARE YOU ALL RIGHT?

CAN I HELP YOU, SIR?

UH... NOT REALLY.

YESTERDAY ASHLEY AND I

SPENT THE DAY TOGETHER

AND NOW SHE HATES ME.

WHY?

BECAUSE SHE FOUND OUT THAT I

USED TO BE THE BULLY WHO MADE

HER LIFE MISERABLE WHEN SHE WAS

AT SCHOOL.

THAT'S NOT GOOD, IS IT?

AND I THINK SHE THINKS THAT

WHAT I DID YESTERDAY WAS

COMPLETELY OUT OF ORDER AND

TOTALLY DISINGENUOUS.

WHAT DID YOU DO TO ASHLEY?

WE HAD A GREAT DAY.

AT LEAST, I DID.

O.K., UH...

I'M A LITTLE CONFUSED.

WELL, I CAME HERE TO

APOLOGIZE...

NOT FOR WHAT I DID YESTERDAY OR

MANY YEARS AGO, ALTHOUGH OF

COURSE, I'M VERY, VERY SORRY

FOR THAT...

BUT APOLOGIZE FOR THE FACT THAT

I WASN'T UP-FRONT AND HONEST

WITH HER YESTERDAY ABOUT

WHO I WAS.

AND I WANTED TO ADD THAT I

WASN'T TRYING TO MAKE A FOOL

OUT OF HER.

I WAS JUST TRYING TO MAKE

A FRIEND.

AND THAT SHE SHOULD APPRECIATE

THAT I WAS FULL OF...

AND THAT SHE SHOULD

RESPECT WHERE...

AND THAT I RESPECT HER,

AND THAT I CARE VERY MUCH

FOR HER FEELINGS AND THAT SHE

SHOULD TRY AND APPRECIATE

WHERE I WAS COMING FROM.

O.K., UM...

DID YOU GET ALL THAT?

I DON'T THINK I CAN

REPEAT IT ALL.

I'LL LEAVE NOW.

JUST LET HER KNOW THAT I'LL BE

BACK TOMORROW... AND THE DAY

AFTER THAT AND THE DAY AFTER

THAT UNTIL SHE DECIDES TO TALK

TO ME AGAIN.

HE'S GONNA KEEP COMING BACK

AND COMING BACK UNTIL YOU...

I HEARD.

AND HE CAN KEEP COMING BACK, BUT

I'M NOT GONNA TALK TO HIM.

DID YOU HEAR THAT?

SHE'LL HAVE TO SPEAK TO ME

EVENTUALLY BECAUSE SHE'LL SEE

I'M BEING HEARTFELT.

HEARTFELT?

PLAYING MIND GAMES WITH SOMEONE

IS HEARTFELT?

I WASN'T PLAYING MIND GAMES.

I WAS TRYING TO BE GENEROUS.

GENEROUS IS NICE...

HONEST IS BETTER.

I'M BEING HONEST.

NO.

HONEST IS TELLING SOMEONE...

I THOUGHT YOU WERE BEING NICE

TO ME BECAUSE YOU LIKED ME.

I DO LIKE YOU.

NO, I MEAN LIKE

LIKE YOU... ME.

I MEAN... LIKE...

MORE THAN FRIENDS.

OH.

AND NOW... IT'S TOO DIFFICULT

TO BE AROUND THAT PERSON,

BECAUSE I FEEL HUMILIATED

AND... LET DOWN.

MAYBE... MAYBE YOU'RE

NOT GIVING THAT SOMEONE-- ME--

A CHANCE.

MAYBE SOMEONE-- YOU--

IS BEING TOO SENSITIVE.

WELL, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?

YOU THINK THAT BUYING ME

AN EXPENSIVE LUNCH AND EXPENSIVE

CLOTHES AND GETTING THE

EXPENSIVE HAIRCUT AND BUYING

SAMMY'S SAXOPHONE IS JUST GONNA

UNDO YEARS OF BULLYING?

IS THAT WHAT YOU EXPECT?

I EXPECT YOU TO BE MATURE.

I EXPECT YOU NOT JUDGE ME

THE WAY I JUDGED YOU WHEN YOU

WERE JUST A GIRL AT SCHOOL WITH

FUZZY HAIR AND HUGE GLASSES.

DON'T EVEN START, FATSO.

I'M NOT, FOUR-EYES.

I'M MAKING A POINT.

I'M SAYING YOU WALKED OUT ON ME

YESTERDAY BEFORE I HAD A CHANCE

TO FINISH WHAT I HAD TO SAY.

I WAS UPSET!

I KNOW THAT.

I DO.

BECAUSE ALL I WANTED TO SAY

YESTERDAY WAS...

IS THAT I'VE ALWAYS

LIKED YOU TOO.

SO YOU BULLIED ME?

YES.

HOW CHIVALROUS.

YOU'RE WELCOME.

"YOU'RE WELCOME."

I MADE FRIENDS

WITH ALL THE WRONG PEOPLE.

"I MADE FRIENDS

WITH ALL THE WRONG PEOPLE."

I WAS INFLUENCED...

"I WAS INFLUENCED..."

EASILY... >> "EASILY..."

I WAS FAT. >>
