So, please, Laura!

Laura, please!

What are you doing?

You still need to be in here.

What are you talking about?

I understand

that you're confused.

I'm not confused about

- anything!

- I know it's a lot to process,

- but it's okay.

- I wanna get out!

Eva, I told you

that I would be in serious

f***ing trouble with the police

if they found out you were here,

and you didn't care!

I'll go to jail if they find out

what I did to help you!

Jail, Eva!

So, you get it now,

or is that what you want?

Is that what you want?

Answer me!

Is that what you f***ing want?

No!

No!

[BOTH CRYING]

You made a choice.

You made a choice to come here.

And I cannot be the only one

that has to suffer

the f***ing consequences!

[DOOR SLAMMING]

Laura! Laura!

Laura!

[SNIFFLING]

Laura!

I'm sorry.

[KNOCKING]

- Hello.

- NANCY:
Oh!

Um, no, I don't need the house

to be cleaned right now.

Okay.

Should I come back another time?

I don't know. Not for a while.

Tell your boss that, okay?

Not for a while.

Sure.

I, uh...

I heard about what happened...

and I'm really sorry.

Thank you.

I... I was wondering

if I could give you some, um...

missing posters of my daughter?

Our time's up with the police

and, uh, their help.

So I thought maybe

you could hand them out

to the people you work with?

Yeah, of course.

She's... She's just

a runaway to them.

They're not looking

for her anymore?

No.

That's... That's terrible.

Thank you.

[LAURA CRYING]

[SIGHING]

[WHISPERING] Hey.

Hey. Hey, you.

No more of this tension

between us.

Okay?

It's poison.

Let's just start over.

I can be...

a total wreck sometimes.

[SOBBING] And I know

that I f***ed up.

And I'm so sorry.

[SOBBING]

It's just

because you're so precious...

and I can't imagine my life

without you.

We're soulmates.

[SNIFFLING]

[WHIMPERING]

[WHIMPERING AND SNIFFLING]

- [EVA CHUCKLING]

- LAURA:
Okay, almost.

- EVA:
What are you doing?

- You'll see!

All right, sit.

- This is so weird.

- Keep them closed.

Open 'em.

A keyboard?

Surprise!

No way! Thank you!

You like it?

Yeah! Yeah, totally!

I figured you needed something

to play on.

Wow!

You are so nice.

I really want you

to be happy here.

I am.

You missed.

Let me try it?

Yeah!

[PLAYING KEYBOARD]

[CAR HONKING]

Whoo! Look at you,

sexy beast! [LAUGHING]

- You're hilarious.

- [LAUGHING]

[GROANING]

This is gonna be so much fun.

You like having a sugar mama

that buys you things?

Yes, thank you.

Okay, you're the only one

that could talk me into doing

something this ridiculous.

Come on! Loosen up, big mama!

Big mama?

I mean sugar mama!

[BOTH LAUGHING]

Okay, let me see!

Beautiful!

[CHUCKLING]

Some boys kiss me

Some boys hug me

I think they're okay

If they don't give me

Proper credit

I just walk away, yeah

They can beg

And they can plead

But they can't see the light

'Cause the boy

With the cold, hard cash

Is always Mister Right

'Cause we are living

In a material world

And I am a material girl

You know that we are living

In a material world

And I am a material girl

I'm anxious

to meet your brother.

[CHUCKLING]

Yeah, we, uh, we don't really

see each other that much.

Birthdays have always

kind of been our thing.

[CHUCKLING]

Here.

Come here.

Happy Birthday, dear Laura

Happy Birthday to you

Make a wish!

Yeah!

- Whoa, did you make that?

- Yeah, of course I did!

- Mm!

- Who wants a slice?

I'm gonna finish this first!

Wow, we got homemade cake!

We got sushi! Living the life!

I wish they had sh*t like this

where I'm staying right now.

It's seems like they got

the same sh*t every two weeks.

- You don't like where you live?

- It's all right.

It's temporary

until I get my own place.

Yeah, it's like

a glorified hospital.

It's not that bad.

Well, it's not this!

I think I should know.

I'm the one stuck there.

Anyway,

they got these nurses there.

The worst part is

they just hired dogs!

It's nothin' but fat chicks

wearing pajamas and Crocs.

[LAUGHING]

These ladies take good care

of people, but, f***!

Who with an ounce

of self-respect goes out

- in public wearing Crocs?

- Yeah! They're so ugly!

Right? It's, like,

take some care of yourself!

F***, seriously!

They're actually

really comfortable.

- What?

- I used to work in Crocs.

- Really?

- [BOTH LAUGHING]

- They're slip-resistant.

- [LAUGHING]

Laura, f***!

Slip-resistant?

Yo, I should rap

about that sh*t!

Don't.

Laura likes her Crocs

She wears 'em with her socks

- With a pocketful of rocks

- Shut the f*** up!

EVA:
Uh...

I didn't know you could rap.

BENJAMIN:
No?

Laura didn't tell you about me,

about her all-star big brother?

EVA:
No!

BENJAMIN:
Uh, yeah.

Yeah, I rap a bit.

You like hip hop?

Yeah. Yeah, of course I do.

LAURA:
Since when?

Since, I don't know, a while.

BENJAMIN:
Cool!

What kind of sh*t you like?

EVA:
Uh, I don't really know

the names.

I just know I like the music.

BENJAMIN:
I tell you what,

I make you a mixtape.

EVA:
[CHUCKLES] Thanks!

BENJAMIN:
Hey, wait!

You ever play in a band?

EVA:
Me? No. No.

BENJAMIN:
Well, I'm sayin',

you play piano, I write rhymes,

we should f***ing make

some dope sh*t together!

EVA:

Yeah! That... That'd be awesome!

BENJAMIN:
Right!

I'll come by next week.

We'll jam some sh*t out!

EVA:
Yeah!

That would be so cool.

I've always wanted

to be in a band!

BENJAMIN:
Oh, word!

Then check this out.

You walk around on your feet

But I roll with mad fluidity

The way my rhymes flow spin

Your head to like infinity

You try to keep me down

But I run you over

[BENJAMIN RAPPING INDISTINCTLY]

You know what?

This is f***ing sh*t!

Because now you've filled

her head with a bunch of stupid

ideas, and I'm gonna have

to clean up your mess!

What? What stupid ideas?

That was the last time

you ever f***ing come over here!

What the f***

are you talking about?

She doesn't listen to rap music,

okay?

And she doesn't wanna be

in a stupid f***ing band

- with you!

- What are you her mom

or something?

We were just talking!

- Relax.

- You're not black, so stop

- trying to sound like you are!

- And you're not

a f***in' teenager,

so maybe you should date

someone your own age!

LAURA:
F*** you!

BENJAMIN:

Yeah, happy birthday, sister!

Thanks

for an unforgettable evening!

[TALKING INDISTINCTLY]

[KEYBOARD PLAYING]

[PANTING]

[GRUNTING]

Laura!

You have no f***ing respect

for me!

What are you talking

- about?

- You know exactly what I'm

talking about.

You ignored me all night!

You and my stupid

f***ing brother!

What?

I do everything for you!

I do everything for you!

It's my f***ing birthday!

Laura, calm down!

What do you think

you're gonna do, huh?

- You gonna start a band?

- No.

Start singing f***ing rap music?

Are you out of

your f***ing mind?

Why wouldn't I?

Because I say what you can

and cannot do! That's why!
