that was pretty gross.

- I love a clean shaved guy.

- Really?

How long you guys

have been living here?

Well, about three years

but I'm saving up

to buy my own place.

She's been saying that

for years.

Hey, that coming from someone who's

shoving their day's work up their nose.

Now, give it to me.

Look who's talking.

Where was Pepper tonight?

She didn't feel like working.

She didn't wanna work

because she's worried about

running into what's-his-face

from Vegas.

Who? -That girl owes a

lot of people money.

Is she still, like,

recruiting girls for the club?

That's how she got me started.

What do you mean

recruiting girls?

Nothing, just like, you know

she gets a little commission

or something

but I don't know

if she's still doing that.

Isn't that

how she brought you in?

Come on, honey,

you know you're not the only one

who's been seduced by Pepper.

Yeah, remember that time

when we went with her to Reno?

She gave us so many f***ing

drugs, I couldn't see straight

for, like, what,

three days after that.

That girl is crazy. Oh, I

mean, she is hauling ass.

Dude, dude, I thought she was gonna bounce

us right out of the back of that thing.

Hey, my phone died.

I was worried about you.

What're you doing here?

Do you recruit girls

for the club?

No.

No.

- Are you sure?

- Who said that to you?

- Have you ever?

- No.

I just don't know

why they would say that. I...

What?

Wh-why they would say that?

Did Diana say that?

Huh?

I'm just something that

you're playing around with?

Of course not.

I think maybe

you should get your stuff out.

What?

Are you f***ing kidding me?

I just don't know

why they would say that.

Yeah, because they're f***ing

doing lines of coke.

Did you do coke?

Did you f***ing get high?

No. No.

They're a bunch

of f***ing cokeheads.

Who do you think you are?

Now that

you're a f***ing stripper

you think

you're some tough chick?

Ha ha! Can't stop us!

Get it.

Yeah, yeah, she f***ing

came home for reunion.

I saw her.

Oh, yeah, I saw her and -

- She got so fat.

Yeah.

I was like, she can't be pregnant

'cause she's buying tampons.

Oh, my God.

Danny. Remember Danny?

- Yeah, yeah.

- He lost all of his hair.

- No.

- Yeah.

- Oh, that's kinda sad.

- Yeah.

- Are those new?

- Hmm.

Cute.

Jenny and I were at Dairy Dream

the other day

and we were talking to the

lady at the front counter

and she said

she hasn't seen you there.

Yeah.

Well, we probably

haven't met each other yet.

You know, just different shifts.

Yeah.

I thought you were there

for a while now.

- Bye, you love birds.

- Bye.

Later, y'all. Later, bro. -Hey, give

me a call when you get back tonight.

- Ah!

- Easy there.

That's why you don't wear them

kind of shoes down in a quarry.

What's going on?

What do you mean?

I know you got all these

clothes and jewelry..

You have all this money

all of a sudden

you don't have any time

to hang out.

You're always too busy.

Just a new pair of shoes

and some earrings.

You cheating on me?

- Come on.

- No?

Then what is it? Where're you

getting this money from?

You're working

at the Dairy Dream store?

No. I'm not.

Seriously?

You had to keep that from me?

I mean, what the f***

is wrong with you?

What, I feel like a failure,

okay?

Come on, Sarah, I've told

you, you could come work for me.

Okay?

Hey, I could give a sh*t less

about that job.

F***, you can come

live with me if you want.

I know. I know.

- Okay, then why...

- It's just..

What, you wanna live

with your mom forever?

No.

I just feel like

we need to talk because I..

I don't know, I, I feel like

maybe we're going

in different directions.

Okay?

Okay. Okay!

Alright, get in the car.

I'll, um, I'll drive you home.

I'm not gonna leave you here,

okay?

- It's fine, I'll just walk.

- Sarah, come on. Sarah!

- I'll just walk home.

- Sarah!

No.-Sarah, get

in the f***ing car!

Hey!

Come on!

Motherf***er! Goddammit!

- Hi.

- Hey.

I, uh... I left some things

in the shop.

You didn't have a hard time

getting in last time.

Okay, so that thing at the club

um, that was a big

misunderstanding, you know.

I don't do that.

I haven't done it in ages.

I..

I mean, I certainly

didn't feel that

you were gonna go and get

a job there, you know?

I..

I'm sorry. I..

I want you to trust me.

So, uh, we can change

the facade, right?

There's no historical listing

on the property? No. No.

The previous owner's daughter had some

emotional attachment to the place

but... that's all.

So we got a deal? Super

Town Express coming soon.

- I can see it.

- Alright.

Let's go back to my office

and we'll work up the paperwork.

Wake up.

Wake up.

- Mm-hmm.

- Come on, wake up.

Mmm. Mwah.

Mwah. Mwah.

Your face.

Mwah.

- They're gonna sell the store.

- Hmm?

They found a buyer.

Yeah?

What?

Is that a bad thing?

What are we doing here?

There's nothing here for me.

I wanna leave.

What if we just got away? Now?

And made up new names,

a new story..

And all those things

that we've talked about?

And I could get a job.

We could use the money

that I saved up.

We could do whatever we want.

Come on. Isn't that great?

Sarah, I'm in trouble,

honey, you know?

I owe..

I owe someone a lot of money..

And I can't keep running away.

Okay. Well, how much?

No, I don't, I don't

wanna take your money.

I don't wanna take your money.

I don't wanna take your money.

Look.

I don't wanna take your money.

Look. Look.

Look at all of this.

That's why I've saved this.

Come on.

It's enough?

Yeah.

I'll pay you back. I promise.

It's for us.

That's our freedom.

That's a lot of money.

Listen..

I want you to come with me..

Tonight... to Seattle, okay?

Okay.

I'll work..

One last shift tonight

and then we can go.

Uh, so we have a little bit

extra money.

- One last shift?

- And you can pay that guy.

And then we can go to, uh..

Africa maybe.

Okay.

- You know it's okay.

- What?

What?

I feel like I could do

anything with you.

I feel like..

Anything is possible.

I will take care of you,

I promise.

- You got the money?

- Yeah, I got what you want.

Let me have it.

Come on, let me have it.

What are you,

f***ing hyped up on coke?

Pepper,

I need that f***ing money.

I don't have time to f*** around

with you, baby, now come on.

Hey, I just need a hit,

really...

Not now. Not now. Not now!

What the f*** is this?

This is $2000 less.

That was what

I f***ing owed you.

Are you f***ing

kidding me right now?

- I f***ing counted it.

- I needed it today, Pepper.

- I counted it.

- Pepper, I know you didn't f***ing count.

Come on.

Are you f***ing kidding me?

Are you really doing this?

Hey, go outside.

She's with me. She's with me.

We're gonna go outside.

You're beautiful.

You can't touch me like that.

I f***ing work here.

Get your f***ing hands off me,

you motherfuckers.

- Come on. Come on. Listen...

- Hey. Hey. Hey.

- Hey. Hey.

- Carlos. Carlos.
