I will sing you

cowboy songs, babe

I will sing you

songs like that

I will sing you

songs like this

Sheriff

'long the county line

I'm a fugitive

running from the la-a-w

Mess with me

or a friend of mine

And you're never gonna find

a faster dra-a-w

I'm the quickest

Said I'm the quickest

I'm the quickest

Man you ever saw

Oop.

My scalp's still burning.

That just means it's working.

Ooh.

Do you think he's gonna like

what we did with the place?

Ah! Ah!

Man, I got three times

as much as that.

I don't know.

I got it.

Oh, man, I got it.

Everyone and everything,

there's this one big... thing.

You know what I mean?

We couldn't handle it, right?

Um, because we...

Us was just like a me,

and it was f***ing lonely.

We trick ourselves into thinking

that we're just surrounded

by each other,

and this, like,

infinite amount of other people

and babies and dogs

and fire trucks, but th...

Th-th-th-there's...

There's not.

It's... it's... it's just us.

It's just... it's me.

You and me.

Maybe it's just us.

You got coke?

It's supposed

to be blue or pink...

But it's yellow.

I don't know what that means.

You don't even like coke.

I like coke.

Adrianne Balboa.

Mm-hmm.

- And?

- Rocky.

Balboa.

Relationship to patient?

Spouse.

Social?

721...

520...

That's too many numbers.

So you're definitely

not pregnant.

I hope that's good news.

Yes.

I'm still a little concerned

about this pain,

so I'm gonna order

some more tests,

if you don't mind hanging out

a bit longer.

Someone will be down here to

take you to radiology.

Let us know

if you need anything.

- Thank you.

- Thanks.

You got it.

Yes.

Hey.

I thought you got caught.

Sorry.

How'd it go?

Savvy. You?

Fruitful.

Oh, good.

Let's go.

What'd he say?

Uh, fine.

What is it?

Let's just go, okay?

F*** did he say, Bob?

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Okay. Hey.

Whoa.

Okay, okay, okay.

Okay.

Come here.

Come here.

Let me see.

Come here.

What is it?

I eat your tears and I save them

right up in my belly.

I'm Popeye.

Your tears are my spinach.

They make me strong.

That's not fair.

I'm the one

who might have cancer.

I need spinach.

Anything ever happen to you,

I'd... stop working.

Nothing before you, Bob,

and there's nothing after you.

We could call, um, Steve.

He's your brother.

Gary is a doctor.

Are you joking?

Even if he would help me,

which he wouldn't,

I would never ask them

for anything.

Sorry. Hey!

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

Come here, please?

Come here.

I'm sorry.

Come here.

Listen, I'm gonna get you

a really good doctor.

I'm not taking you to county

or any shitty hospitals

in the city, okay?

And we'll pull Gary's hair plugs

out with a power drill.

Fine.

You've never been swimming?

I ain't swimming in that.

Why not?

Sharks.

There's no sharks

in Lake Michigan.

That's what they want you

to think.

You know we couldn't

have been born

into more ideal circumstances.

We're white.

We're American.

You're a male.

Advantage.

College degree, middle class...

That's a double advantage.

So what happened, sugar toes?

I don't know, babe.

Why does the bird keep flying

in the same window?

Oh f***.

Hold on!

There's somebody in here!

Jesus. Ooh.

Anything?

Not even an M&M.

Jesus, Jude.

You haven't pooped

in over a week.

That's not healthy.

A few more hours,

I'm gonna have

the opposite problem.

So...

I wanna do one more date.

No.

One more.

One more, and then we'll buy

a bunch of methadone off Megan,

and we'll drive.

We'll figure it out.

I like that idea.

I like it a lot.

We get out of Dodge,

get enough methadone

to taper off

and go on a road trip.

We should go someplace there's

really good free clinics,

like Portland,

get to a really good doctor.

Yeah.

Yeah?

So one more date.

I got an idea.

Excuse me.

Hi, has anyone turned in

a laptop

from underneath that bench

over there

in like the last 20 minutes?

- A laptop?

- Yeah, it's a silver... God!

I'm so stupid.

I'm gonna lose my job.

I've been here

the last few hours.

- Nobody's turned anything in.

- There's a project on it...

And if I don't turn it by 3:00,

my boss is...

- I'm gonna lose my job.

- Where do you work?

At Burnham.

I... I work at Burnham.

If anyone turns it in,

I'll bring it over.

- What floor?

- No, no, you can't do that.

There's some...

There's some confidential

client information on it,

and if they find out

that I misplaced it,

I'm gonna be in deep sh*t.

Okay. Thanks.

Look, I'm sorry.

Do you think maybe

that you could ask around

to other security guards

and find out

if anyone's turned it in

in the area?

I'll give you my number,

and just call me

if you hear anything.

I have $2,000

that I can give as a reward.

2,000?

It's the last

of my graduation money.

I just...

I cannot lose this job.

Please?

Thank you.

Baby!

Stop it.

My little man.

Stop it.

I could've been a doctor.

You could've been a doctor.

I could've been a sailor.

It says average

entry level salary

for a four-year college grad

is $44,660.

I wonder how much we'd make

in a single day if that was us.

Mm, 260 working days in a year,

give or take Arbor Day

or whatever...

gross take home's

171 and change.

So between us,

we could bring in 343 bucks.

And 50 cents.

Or something.

Did you seriously just do that?

Excuse me? Sir?

Can I help you find something?

Um, you guys have a lost

and found office here?

Did you lose something?

Actually, I found something.

That's great.

A young woman lost that

just today.

She's gonna be really happy.

Oh, that's great.

Um, I'd love to give it

to her myself.

I can do it.

Don't worry about it.

No, I'd love to do it.

I mean, maybe she'll want

to buy me a drink, You know?

Maybe there's a reward in it.

You know, I think there

may be a reward for that.

How much?

I'll tell you what.

I'll split it with you.

She said she'd give 500 bucks

to whoever found it.

God, she must really want

this thing.

Um...

I tell you what, Norman,

I'm gonna keep 400

since I'm the one that found it.

Come on.

You know what, um...

thank you.

I bet I can find her

around here somewhere.

- Thank you.

- No...

All right.

350?

400, man.

You're getting $100

to hand over a laptop.

You're right.

There's nothing left, babe.

Do you think we could get

another laptop?

It's Saturday.

Downtown's gonna be dead.

How much is left?

Five bucks.

I'm really starting

to feel f***ing sick.

Sh*t.

Sh*t.

How much?

- How much?

- 50.

Don't you ask me

about the damn $2!

You take my money!

Keep your hands off me.

Keep your voice down.

You see people

come through the hallway.

They call the police.

You shut up.

I ain't trying to hear that.

You can't hear that

with your deaf ass.

- What up?

- Hey, what's up?

Buttercup's not working?

The f*** you know

about Buttercup?

I'm a regular.

Um, you guys open?

A regular.
