- You're totally right.
- Maureen, EPA line two.
- What's up with your sister?
- What do you mean?
- Like, what's her deal? What's she about?
- I don't know. She has a clothing line.
- A fantasy clothing line and a boyfriend.
- May I ask who's calling? Sure.
- Why?
- Please hold.
No reason. You should bring her
by my birthday party.
Alex, line one.
Hello?
Hi.
No, no, no. You don't have to do that,
you don't have to do that. I will...
I will be right out. Okay.
- Hi.
- Hello.
I'm actually really glad that you called
because I wanted to tell you that...
I was really drunk last night.
And I'm really embarrassed, so...
- Yeah, nobody needs to know about that.
- You want to have lunch?
Oh, man.
This is crazy.
- So this is what you do?
- So this is what?
- This is what you do.
- This is what I... what? No.
This is like... is this like your 'game?'.
Like you, you know exactly like, you know,
you pick up the women at the bars
and this is like you show them
your beautiful house
and all your beautiful things and...
- Trap.
- Trap.
Trap, gotcha.
No.
I don't do that, I...
I mean, I've gone to the bar...
But I have...
- I've met women at the bar.
- You have...
I mean, I'm friendly.
No?
Well, I hope this, you know...
compares.
I mean, I don't know
what I'm saying. I'm...
I hope that this has been good
in comparison to...
the other women that you may have
or may not have brought home from the bar.
I'm glad you're concerned.
I'm glad you are concerned
with the outlook.
So you're basically trying
to ask me did you rock my world?
Shoot, you crazy girl.
- Voila.
- Thank you.
Enjoy it?
Yeah, it's amazing.
So...
what happened?
What?
Your husband.
He wasn't happy.
Apparently.
So... so he... so he got out.
And now he's figuring out
what he wants to do with his life.
I don't know, I guess he felt like...
I wasn't seeing him or...
And I don't know,
maybe he's... he's right.
Yeah, that can be hard. And...
getting married when you're 20, sometimes,
you change and you don't change together.
I didn't have it as figured out
as I thought I did.
Am I crazy person talking about my...
I don't know. I kind of feel like this is
something you're not supposed to do.
No.
Is this some ploy to get me
to f*** up the case?
You know what? It should be.
Can we take it right before the dance?
It would be perfect.
Oh, Petya.
My darling, I'm so sorry.
Please come dance.
Come, come dance with me.
Roger, that's your entrance.
- Yes.
- That's always been your entrance.
- I'm sorry.
- You've gotta tattoo that into your brain.
- That will always be your entrance.
- Yeah, I got it now, sorry.
- Do you want to go back or...
- No, keep going.
What's the matter, pops.
I... I don't feel too well. I'm...
In the old days, we had a dance, we had...
We had...
Roger.
Roger, do you need a minute?
'Cause I can't.
- No, I'm... I'm sorry.
- Okay.
- I just lost my place here.
- That's okay. You have to be off book.
I'm sorry, I don't...
It's just... at this point at this far along,
it's not fair to the other actors
and I don't know how to rehearse the play
if you're not good at it.
- Okay.
- Okay? Okay, thanks so much.
- Take five you guys, and then we'll...
- Sorry, guys.
No, no, no, no, no, no. You...
- Poppin' bottles.
- Poppin'...
- Poppin' bottles.
- Poppin' bottles.
- We have some rain rain.
- Rain rain.
- Champagne.
- Champagne.
Where your hundred dollar bills at?
Dad?
Dad?
I got confused.
- Just... got confused.
- Just... let me help you up.
Go away. Just go away.
Dad, this is your shirt, it's...
Get the f*** out! Get out!
Go.
'Cause I really need a new bike too.
'Cause mine's like, falling apart, like...
I tried pumping it back up but...
they just got flat right away again, so...
- It's just not working.
- Okay.
And the chain keeps coming off.
Well, I guess we'll have
to figure that out.
Maybe you'll give me that for my birthday.
We'll see.
Can we come in, Dad?
You didn't eat anything.
Do you want us to take you to the doctor?
As you can see from our report
and from the witness testimony today,
construction has only been
underway two months,
and already the effects on the life
of the pond have been devastating,
and we're asking the court
to halt construction
until we can come up with a solution,
either Mr. Evans moves construction
ten miles west...
or he alters his construction plans.
What it all comes down to,
Your Honor, is our legacy.
What do we want to leave behind, a hotel?
A spa?
We can't prevent our ends, but we can
prevent the ends of this earth.
We can make it so...
our great, great grandchildren
who we will never meet will...
swim in the same ocean we did.
Will hike the same mountain.
Enjoy the same view.
I mean, I find that
really comforting, that...
no matter how out of control
or tenuous most of life is
there are some things that are forever.
If we fight for them.
Thank you, Your Honor.
The district sold the land to Mr. Evans
with the understanding that he
would abide by environmental standards.
And in studying the information
put before me
and the agreement
made with the district...
that the changes to the marsh
is the fault of Mr. Evans' construction.
Loopholes in a prior contract
with the district
have allowed for the current margin.
This case is dismissed without prejudice.
Alex.
- Alex, come on.
- Congratulations, Frank.
Hey, listen.
Hey, I just want to talk to you
for a second. Alex. Alex!
Hi.
- Hey. How are you doing?
- I'm good, I'm fine.
- You alright?
- Yeah, I'm totally fine. I'll see you.
F***ing hate parties.
Alright, this is going to turn up.
I'm down.
You know what? I don't think I'm going
to stay very long. Just so you know.
Come on. We just need to get you a drink.
Let's get you some Tequila, okay?
- Okay, I'll have one drink.
- Right, a lot of young dick here.
Yep. Lot of young dick.
Look, tonight, I just want you
Dakota's at a friend's house.
Let's just try and have a good time.
- F***.
- Who are you texting?
- Hey, Alex.
- Birthday boy.
Yeah, well, it's not my birthday.
My birthday's on Monday.
- That's okay.
- We're just celebrating tonight.
- That's alright.
- You guys look f***ing great.
- Maybe, yeah. Great feet, great feet.
- He's into feet.
- I just got my toes done.
- We're not going to talk about it, right?
- We're going to have fun.
Going to have fun.
I lived in a redwood tree for three months,
and I didn't have anything.
There were days where I didn't have food.
No.
There were days I didn't have water.
I had to poop in a bucket.
I had to piss off the tree.
But I always found time to have sex.
Do you guys want to do some ecstasy?
No, no. No, we're good.
Okay.
I mean, I could...
- do it.
- Yes.
