All right, bye.

You've gone with him to visit

his parole officer, right?

Yeah, a couple times.

Get the PO's number.

Start telling him,

confidentially,

that you're worried about E.

You're worried about

what he'll do.

I get it.

Plant the seed that

he's out for revenge.

Some people stole money from

him. Tell him the truth.

The day of, tell the PO

that you're worried.

Easton took your car.

You're worried that he's

gonna go batshit crazy.

You call me. Donny happened to

be with me at the time.

That's f***ing genius!

We drive you around,

because you have a GPS

tracking device on your car.

We leave the car at outpost,

where there's no cameras.

We hear the sirens,

and then boom, we do a

dramatic run into the house.

That's... that's like

half my idea.

I mean, like, same ballpark.

Just saying.

Going into the house explains

any fibres or fingerprints.

We get the homicide cops and

PO's testimony,

that the sh*t was

brewing for weeks.

I'm gonna do my thing.

I'll be right out.

Get the PO's number.

Start telling him lies

that become true.

No, thanks.

There's also this really scary

guy that's always

sitting right there, every

single time. It's like, ""

Let's make this quick.

50 minutes in and out.

I hate this place.

Hey, Mel, what's going on?

I just remembered

I'm late for my acting class.

What?

I said, "Well, don't believe

what you hear.

Just believe what you see."

I've been having

a really hard time.

You want to know what my acting

teacher told me today?

What's wrong?

Sorry, I flubbed a line.

In acting class, like...

They love each other, but it's

over, but it's not over.

And that's what I was going for.

You're giving me an inauthentic

response to authenticity.

That's bullshit,

with capital letters. Be honest.

I was in the middle of a scene

that I've been working on

for like four...

Can we Google it?

You can't, it's a parole

dial-in, or something.

Bing! What about Bing?

Okay, let's move on, okay?

Let's move on.

Okay.

It's a f***ing card.

Just get the f***ing card.

Next time...

You're making a bad day worse.

Next time... Listen to me.

Next time,

you're going to act

like somebody

who knows what they're doing,

and do it right. Say it.

Don't. Say the

f***ing words.

"Next time, I'm going to act

like somebody

who knows what they're f***ing

doing, and do it right."

Hey.

You know, just for the...

What are you doing?

Well, in case you...

You know, gotta look after mine.

Bye. All right.

Okay.

She is with you, right?

Jake!

But I actually have to go right now.

Yeah, thank you so much.

Jake!

Is Jake on the back of

a milk box or something?

I'm reading a script.

I'm standing in the living room.

What?

You been here all day?

Why are you acting so weird?

E, what are you looking for?

Hello?

Jesus. F***ing distracting me.

I can't even read.

What are you looking for

in there?

If you're reading, read.

This is actually my work.

You getting paid?

Is it a paying job?

'Cause if it's work,

it means you get paid.

Okay.

Great. Now you're gonna

get upset.

Were you here when he left?

Why? Why does it even matter?

How long...

from when he left...

did you come in?

Why?

Damn it.

Why'd you grab

your phone like that?

You scared the sh*t out of me...

Don't!

What was that?

What's on your phone?

Nothing! What do you...

What do you do?

Why didn't you just tell me what

you were talking about

when I asked what you

were talking about?

I'm asking you what's going on

and you're not actually telling

me. I don't know what's going

Shh! What's on your phone?

What's on your phone?

Nothing! Nothing!

Tell me what's on

your phone. E...

You thought I was gonna

grab your phone.

Who you been talking to?

Give me your phone.

Give it to me.

It's all right.

Take it.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Don't!

Daneel, I'm sorry.

Jake, yeah, meet me

at the place, all right?

I f***ed up with Daneel.

I don't know, I don't know.

She's acting strange and stuff.

And I found one of those things

at the house.

You know, one of those

f***ing things.

Do I like her?

Yeah, I mean, she looks good and

she fucks like she's ugly.

I mean, I gotta fix this.

This isn't something you talk

about over the phone.

What time are you off work?

What time are you off work?

I keep asking,

'cause you're not answering.

What time are you

off work, Jake?

Yeah, yeah. I'm on the roof.

Yeah, that's why you

hear all the noise.

Yeah, I'll tell you

when you get here.

Jake.

I'll tell you when I see you.

You didn't follow him, did you?

Did you see where he went?

You're f***ing up, ese,

you know that?

This SIS stuff's

got him paranoid.

Yeah, is that what it is?

Yeah, yeah.

F***. It's got me paranoid.

But he just said that because

he was on the phone.

Why are you telling me this?

We're just talking, right?

Am I some kind of bartender,

psychiatrist?

Since when did I

become the go-to guy?

Why are you telling me

about this?

I don't know.

I don't know how to know.

Just ask him, man.

You say, "Dude,"

or whatever it is you f***ing

white boys call each other...

"Dude, what's up?"

But you need to ask him.

You ask him without asking him,

you know what I'm saying?

Where we gonna eat after this?

What? We got a couple minutes.

Still. Later.

What is it with you?

Later.

Look at me. Jake.

Look at me.

Where?

To eat?!

No, to bleach our a**holes.

To eat. I'm starving.

You're that hungry?

Yeah, I'm starving.

My pick this time, okay?

The diner.

I love that look the waitress

gives you when you order

extra whipped cream with the

hot chocolate. Remember that?

Good times.

And while we're sitting

here, chatting,

waiting to go in,

I think I want some extra

pillows for the couch.

I'm thinking velvet.

Velvet pillows.

You know? Velvet pillows

all around. It'd look nice.

More the merrier.

What do you think?

Since we got the time,

while we're here, waiting.

Okay, there's our girl.

It's time to make the donuts.

We were in the trunk for,

like, a half an hour.

What?

If you're so hungry,

why didn't you ask me then?

'Cause I'm asking you now.

What?

Nothing.

You ready?

Let's do it.

I don't know what we keep

waiting for.

My cousin said we were

supposed to go in...

"My cousin said.

My cousin said."

His name's Melville, not Simon.

And if your cousin wanted you to

take care of it,

he would've sent you

alone, right?

So when I get the signal to

either light the place up,

or call it a night,

I'll let you know.

That's what I'm saying!

Make a signal... what's the

f***ing signal?

Good signal means shoot.

Bad signal means don't.

All right?

All right, let's go.

Now we go.

Why is it now?

All of a sudden you say so

and now we f***ing go.

Who is it?

Yeah, police, sir.

Open up.

Your silent alarm went off.

Please open up.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!

Have I been talking

to myself all night?

What have I been saying?

Man, I heard you

the seventh time.
