Let's play a game?

Maybe I'm looking

for somebody too?

He's... he's looking for Rafi.

Forget about Rafi, man.

Forget that sh*t.

Okay.

I can hook you up

with a bundle.

No, just a dime.

A little teaser?

All right.

Lay a note on the table.

Go somewhere else.

Look for somebody else.

Hey.

So, Cherry,

do you like to suck cock?

- Hey.

- Hey.

Francis, what happened?

And... action.

I'm gonna f*** the sh*t

out of you.

A little painkiller?

No, I'm okay.

What, are you worried

about the guard?

He doesn't care.

No, I just don't need

to be high to be with you.

Why do you do...

why do you do what you do?

Francis, this is my job.

Well, maybe you should find

another job.

Well, maybe you should have

kept making art.

That's not...

Yeah, maybe.

Why are you always high?

I don't know.

I don't know.

It feels so good.

Oh, f*** me!

How am I supposed

to f*** you tonight

after you

just got done f***ing...

I don't know... five guys?

Okay, first of all, where did

you get "five guys" from?

Oh, sorry.

Four? Six?

Really? 'Cause it was one.

Okay.

Oh, all right.

Everybody's tested.

Are all of your girlfriends

tested?

You're my only girlfriend.

I don't have

any other girlfriends.

You're my only girlfriend.

I'm not having sex

with anyone else.

Your job is disgusting.

What you do is disgusting.

Okay.

Really?

You disgust me.

I don't know what to say.

Yeah, it's f***ing disgusting,

f***ing disgusting.

Okay, hold on a sec.

Terra,

can you move it back here?

I want to get her whole body.

You okay?

Action.

So you like to say

you do it for money.

That's...

that's what the difference is?

Is that how you justify it?

Now, Chuck,

work towards the orgasm.

You know, I thought

we were going somewhere.

We're not going anywhere.

Great.

Take me home.

That was hot.

Good job.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Thank you.

Great. Once again, brilliant.

It was fun. It was good.

You were amazing, yeah.

It felt good.

Just really good.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

Okay, thank you.

Watch out!

You know, you're lucky

you ran into

one of these breakers

and not a carload of kids

down the street.

You sure you're okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

Nothing happened to me.

Yeah, you're lucky, you know?

Your buddy over here

didn't look too well.

Listen, he mentioned

something to me

about somebody stealing

his driver's license.

You know anything about that?

You know anything about it?

Looks like we found our thief.

Yeah, if you're not guilty,

then why are you so wet?

Lick it off.

Maybe if you do a good job,

we'll go easy on you.

Or maybe we'll put you

in the cage.

What the f***?

Are you jerking off?

No.

No?

Okay.

No.

Where are you going?

What are you doing?

I... I can't...

I can't share a bed with you.

I don't even know...

I don't even know you.

You know me better

than anybody, come on.

No, I don't.

What the f***, Ange?

If you have something to say,

then you better say it.

What?

I'm just supposed to sit here

while you run around

with everyone else?

I get it.

I'm just a...

I'm just a foreigner

you keep around

to run your errands

and make you feel good

about yourself, right?

- That is not true.

- It is true.

- No, it's not.

- That is f***ing true.

You treat me like a f***ing pet.

No, I don't!

You treat me like a pet.

No, I don't.

Come on.

Come on. What are you doing?

Wait, come on.

Stop it.

What?

Every night,

I wait for you to come home

so we can hang out,

and you give me crumbs.

It's like

you're not even there.

No, I am here.

But you don't realize it,

because the girl that

you're waiting for to come home

does not exist in real life.

Okay, I'm not her.

Why?

Why what?

Why am I the only person

in the whole world

who's not allowed

to see you naked?

Why?

You love me?

Do you love me?

Andrew, do you love me?

But not enough to jerk off

to somebody else.

If you want to stay

You can

take what you want to

You can

Hey.

Hey.

I'll have what she's having

and a shot.

Got it.

I had a boyfriend

who used to say that.

"I'll have what she's having

with whiskey in it."

I thought he was the coolest guy

in the world.

Probably was at the time.

I'm not usually

much of a drinker.

Thanks.

I think I might be

a bad person.

You're not a bad person.

I think you're

a beautiful person.

I got a letter

from my mom yesterday.

She told me that

I let her down.

Did you write her back?

No.

No, but I will.

I just don't know when.

My parents think

I'm going straight to hell

because I had premarital sex.

I have this cousin,

and she started working

at this laundromat

when she was 19,

right out of high school,

and no one wondered why

she worked at the laundromat.

She just did all this

boring sh*t.

I would visit her.

I couldn't stand it.

It was, like,

her and the manager,

and there was no chance

of a promotion.

And then she got married.

Did she quit?

With what?

They don't have any money.

She has a little boy,

and he plays Little League,

and he goes to public school.

I think she's still

working there.

It's, like, 12 years?

$15 an hour.

Well, is she happy?

I don't know.

I don't think so.

Okay.

What kind of story is that?

It's a real one.

That's a horrible story.

Yeah, I'm just...

Trying to figure it out

on my own, you know?

Yeah.

I just need somewhere to go

for a little while.

Take what you want to

Come here.

Take what you want

Make of me

I dream of us in a land

With your eyes

ann your hair

You've got

a million-dollar stare

That makes me say

Morning, gorgeous.

Good morning.

How are you?

Good.

You look bright

and bushy-tailed.

Yeah, I'm shooting

someone new today.

Should be good.

I really like her.

What you reading?

I want to plant some herbs

on our balcony.

Don't you think

that would be cool?

Like, basil and rosemary.

Sounds good to me.

This is amazing.

Yeah, I got it

at the farmers' market.

You should come with me

sometime.

It's so fun.

I like it

when you pick the fruit.

You always pick better fruit

than I do.

It's true.

They're really good.

Do you have plans?

I'm gonna be over there

later today.

Okay, cool.

I'm shooting something later.

Nice.

Okay. I got to get going.

I'm late.

I'll talk to you later.

So, Ebony, why do you want

to be a porn star?

I mean, I like doing it anyway.

You like doing what?

Having sex.

You like being f***ed?

You like the feeling of somebody

inside you?

I do.

Do you like being watched?

Sometimes.

Have you ever had anybody

watch you masturbate?

Oh, just my boyfriend so far.

Why should he have all the fun?

Come on.

Put on a show for us like you do

for your boyfriend.

Yeah, get us off.

Cut.

That was great. Thanks.

Thank you.

So how was it?

Did I do okay?

You were perfect.

She shuts the door

behind me

Waits for me

to get undressed

She ask if I need water

I can barely understand her

I think she asked me

what I do

And I said that I'm a singer

She laughs

and claps her hands
