all of the steps
of their initial evidence gathering.
As you can see, they're taking
what appears to be the family computer.
Officials are not speaking to us
about this latest development,
but obviously they think
there might be some information
that could help them
in figuring out
what happened
Well, that's an interesting
development.
Keep us posted on that, Al.
Hey, Mom, can I go to Magic Mountain
with Julie's family tomorrow?
Sure.
She said I could go!
But it's my day off today,
- so you and I are gonna...
- Oh, my gosh.
I cannot wait to ride the...
hang out.
So here it is.
All right.
Looks like it's all here.
Okay...
Say, "Please whip me."
Please whip me more.
- Louder! I can't...
- Please whip me more!
You want it harder?
You forgot the command.
God! F***. Damn it.
Louder!
Yes, ma'am!
Say, "Please whip me."
Please whip me more.
Louder! I didn't...
Please whip me more!
You want it harder?
Yes.
You forgot the command.
Come on.
Louder. Yes, ma'am.
Come on. Come 0... Hey.
Hey, what's up, baby?
W-What are you doing?
What do you think I'm doing?
Yeah.
Uh, hi.
Oh, great. You're done.
We were getting worried about you.
talk to the building manager
about a little heat in... in the room.
That would, uh, help things along.
Okay...
Yeah, and, uh, also your...
the magazines are worn out.
Okay...
And the... the videos are, uh...
They're not accessible.
Okay...
I've never met a person in my life
who so completely inspired me.
When I first saw you in the U-Cen
surrounded by those three girls...
I thought that you looked
like a womanizing frat guy.
that cup of coffee
and you tried out the worst
pickup line I had ever heard...
And, no, I'm not gonna embarrass him
by telling you all what he said,
but trust me. It was bad.
After everything that you gave me,
my sweetheart,
that I can take that one to my grave.
I love you, Sam.
Excuse me.
I'm sorry.
Do you want me to meet you
at your house?
Would you like to go to lunch?
Um, yeah. I just...
Let me grab a... a water.
I will never forgive you for this, Drew,
everything you've put us through...
- Mom...
- All this torture.
First you destroyed your brother's life,
and if that wasn't enough,
you had to destroy ours, too.
How could you do this to us?
This to you?
I'm the one who wants
to take care of him,
not stick him in a home somewhere.
He needs qualified,
responsible caregivers.
Love? You talking
about the kind of love
where you put somebody else's
needs before your own?
Are you going to do that?
You are far too selfish for that.
Mrs. Bryant, please.
Your son is coming home.
No more talking from you.
No more talking from you.
You've done enough.
So tell me something about yourself.
Oh, I don't know. Like what?
I don't know.
It doesn't have to be
some deep, dark secret.
Okay...
I was born with an extra kidney.
No, I swear to God
It's just a little one.
It doesn't do anything.
But, look, when I was 10
I went to school one day,
and there was this kid who said
that his cousin or somebody
had been traveling overseas
and drugged him
and sell it on the black market.
On the black market?
You believed this?
Well, I was 10,
so all I'm thinking is
"Whoa, I got a huge pile of cash
sitting inside here,"
and... and I put an ad
in the local paper.
You put an ad out in the paper?
Well, what were you gonna charge
for your own little baby kidney?
$500 or best offer.
That's not a bad deal.
I thought so.
So how are you going
to deliver the goods
- when somebody called for your...
- I was 10.
I hadn't thought the thing
through all the way, okay?
- But I did get one call.
- No, you didn't.
Yeah, I swear to God.
And so, of course,
and they thought I'd lost my mind,
so they made me go see a shrink,
and then everyone in school
found out,
and this... this one kid filled my locker
with, like, 40 cans of kidney beans.
It was awful.
Anyway, it kind of
put a stigma on me
that lasted a while.
That's kind of sad.
Yeah. You probably think
No. I mean, you were 10.
If anything, it's indicative
of your early entrepreneurial spirit.
encouraged it.
Right.
Okay, your turn.
My turn for what?
Come here.
I hate black people.
Th-That's, um...
I'm guessing that can be
a problem sometimes.
Yeah.
Will... Will you stop...
Please stop taking my picture.
You know, I didn't come up here
to watch you sweat your balls off
running the hills of San Francisco.
I came here to make sure
you shave that
prison p*ssy ASAP.
You know what? This is...
it's very good luck.
Oh, the race is over,
so unless you want to audition
for a Village People tribute band,
it's got to go.
Oh, my God. It really
bothers you, doesn't it?
Yeah. Every picture
I have of my brother
running one of these races...
Oh, look,
he looks like a gay porn star
running from a bunch of rabid fans.
Someday, uh, you're gonna have
to run one of these with me.
Thanks for the offer,
Well, that's never gonna happen.
Besides, I don't have time to train.
No, really. Yeah.
Yeah, I'm busy.
Doing what?
Vampires get more sh*t done
in the day than you.
Come on. All you got is time.
We are 15 seconds away from
this year's SoCal Marathon.
You ready?
5,4,3,2,1!
I had a date with a guy last night,
and we're seeing each other
again later today.
So it went well.
Yeah, it was great.
And then I told him
I hate black people.
Okay, and how did
he react to that?
He laughed, and...
he was kind of weirded out,
more uncomfortable
than freaked, I think,
because he's a white guy.
Why do you, uh...
Why do you think you did that?
I don't know.
Um, I like to see
white people squirm?
Do you like this guy?
I do. I really do.
Sometimes I feel like
I have these automatic
responses for white guys.
I just... I wish I'd never
told him that, you know.
I... I wish I'd never said that.
"I hate black people."
Why?
Did he say something
to trigger that from you?
No. He told a story,
and it was vulnerable and sweet.
He's a sweet, nice guy.
I think I...
pushed him away,
like I do with everyone at my job.
I'm the only black person
working on this show,
and I just... I get so angry.
Ah, scratch that. Uh...
the two security guards at the gate,
they... they're black.
And there's another-
another executive
who is female also,
and she's black.
And the valet, he's black.
Why does it bother you?
Because I feel like I'm selling out.
I mean, look at you.
You were recommended to me
You know, I should be
with a black therapist.
Allegra, if you're uncomfortable,
I could recommend...
