F***ing weakling.

We have to call the police.

Please, may, let's just go.

Stop it!

Sh*t, huh?

What the f*** you gonna do?

- Jesus.

- - Shiva, where are you going?

I think it's fate

that we met right now,

Don't you?

I also think that you are a powerful,

beautiful woman

Who doesn't even realize it.

Thanks.

- Good-Night.

- Good-Night.

Lokah samastah sukhino bhavantu.

What are you doing?

I'm just saying

a prayer for peace.

You're such a hippie.

Sorry.

No, it's...

It's okay.

It's nice.

May.

May.

Hey.

I did not feel comfortable

letting her go back

To her own place.

Okay.

I've gotta go, I've got a private.

- Okay -

You've got class in less than an hour.

So you should start moving.

No, I think I'm gonna

cancel today.

Cancel? What?

Look, I'm happy

that you found your sister...

- Hi.

- Hi, I'm sorry,

I just needed to use

the bathroom.

Oh, yeah, it's just...

Um, there, on the left.

And this is my boyfriend.

Hi, Shiva. Dex.

Very nice to meet you.

Yeah, you too.

She seems sweet.

- Okay. We can talk about this later.

- Okay.

- All right

- Mm-Hmm. Bye.

- Love you.

- Love you.

Bye, Shiva.

Hey.

He seems, like, super nice.

Yeah.

You know, I was thinking,

Would you want to just

go away for a night?

Just you and me?

Like a lady date?

Exactly.

Go where?

Well, my mom

has this little place

Up near Santa Barbara,

we could just chill, and...

She's probably gonna be there,

But there is a pool.

Oh, f***. I wish.

- Why not?

- Cody would f***ing freak.

Well, Dex will freak too.

So?

I've gotta work this weekend.

I've gotta get my rent together.

Here.

Pay me back whenever.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Thanks.

His truck's gone,

so he's definitely not home.

Do you want me

to go in with you?

Okay.

Or you could

just borrow something,

Because I have plenty

of stuff there, like I said.

No, I'm... I'm good.

- What is that look?

- - What look?

That look you just gave me.

I didn't give you a look.

Yes, you did.

I to...

Okay, you look gorgeous

in that dress,

I'm just like...

I couldn't pull it off the way you do.

Hey, I like your disco ball.

- Oh yeah?

- Mmm-Hmm.

Cool.

Um, yeah I got it at the flea market.

Do you want something to drink?

Like some water?

I think we have...

I think we have beer.

Nope, I'm fine.

Okay.

So, how long have you

lived here?

Like, three years.

Is... Is that a gun?

Yeah.

Is it yours?

It's Cody's.

You know what guys are like.

Jesus, don't point

that over here.

Well, it won't bite

unless you make it.

Woof!

That is not funny.

It's a little funny.

You totally wanna hold it.

Take it,

come on. Take it.

Come on.

Wow. It's heavy.

Yeah,

it's a .45.

It's Cody's

dad's gun from Vietnam.

Is it loaded?

Always.

Here.

I mean, come on,

doesn't that make you a little scared?

You have a loaded gun

in your house.

No. It makes us safe,

right?

Like if the bad guys come?

Yeah, but if the bad guys come,

It's more likely

to be used on you.

No, those bad guys

never met Cody.

What was our mother like?

She was just so much fun.

Was she cool?

Was she wild?

You know,

she had such a big heart.

She was...

I loved her.

You would have loved each other.

F***, nice place.

Thanks.

Hey, can I ask you something?

Yeah, sure.

And it's...

If it's none of my business,

I mean...

you don't have to answer.

Okay.

What kind of massage do you do?

Is this what you've been thinking

about for the past half hour?

No.

I was just kind of

curious, if...

Are you trying to ask me

if I'm a hooker?

- No.

- I prefer sex worker.

Sure, yeah.

Not that it really matters.

No, I get it.

I get it.

Do you have anything else

you want to ask me?

- Nope.

- Okay.

Well, actually, um,

Are you okay

with what you're doing?

I mean, it's not perfect, but,

What the f*** is?

I don't need to be saved.

Mom?

- Mom?

- - I'm in my room.

Okay, um...

why don't you just

hang out by the pool,

Or get a drink, or something?

- Okay.

- Make yourself at home.

Hey, mom,

Hey, honey.

Whew, it's really chilly

in here.

Oh, it's so hot

outside I can't stand it.

This much A.C.

Is gonna kill you.

I didn't expect to see you

this weekend.

Well, I hope you don't mind,

But I brought a friend.

What do you think of this?

It's nice.

I'm going to re-Decorate.

Why? I like it the way

that it is.

Oh, I like a change.

Did you say you brought

a friend?

Yeah.

- Her name is Shiva...

- That's unusual.

Yeah, and...

well actually she's

not just a friend.

She's my biological sister.

Half-Sister.

I only just met her.

So, it's new for me too.

But she's really great.

I think you'll like her.

I didn't know you were...

Why didn't you

tell me about this?

I don't know.

Have you contacted

your birth mother?

She passed away.

And I know that you

didn't want me to do that,

But since dad died,

I don't know...

I just...

I just don't understand why you

didn't talk to me about this.

Why so secret?

Just because I love you,

And I didn't want to hurt you.

So why did you bring

her here then?

I just wanted you to meet her.

And she has, I don't know...

Trouble with a boyfriend,

I thought...

I thought it would be nice

To have a night away.

Life is difficult enough without

inviting problems into it,

You know that.

She's not a problem, mom.

I just feel bad for her.

You know,

she doesn't have any family or anything,

She doesn't have anybody.

This is pretty, don't you think?

Hey.

Cody called.

Did you speak to him?

He left a message.

And?

Where the f*** are you?

I swear to god,

I just got out of jail, Shiva,

If you're not home

by the time I get back,

You're f***ing dead.

You understand?

What do you want to do?

Oh my god, isn't it too hot?

Mom, this is Shiva.

Shiva, this is my mom, Martha.

- Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you.

Wow, where are you going?

Oh, back to I.A.,

On a date.

- No way...

- Blind date.

Lynn set it up.

I'm too old to be dating, but...

Ah, you're never

too old to date.

Anyway, I hope you girls

enjoy yourselves,

Don't forget to leave

the alarm on when you leave.

Okay.

Bye, mom.

I know we'll be meeting again.

I hope so.

This is Dex, I gotta take it.

Sorry, mom.

- See you. Bye.

- - Bye.

- Hello?

- - Hey, you.

I was looking

at the business account,

Looks like there's

a thousand dollars missing.

- Did you know that?

- I know.

What, did you pay a bill?

Where did it go?

I don't understand.

It's that gas guzzler,

again, isn't it?

We've got to get rid of it.

That's it.

We've got to sell it this week.

No more discussion, please.

It wasn't the car.

Okay?

I gave it to Shiva.

Wait, what?

I gave it to Shiva for her rent.

Are you being serious right now?

No, I thought it was

a good idea.

It felt like the right

thing to do.

Are you out of your mind?

I cannot believe

that you did not call me, may.

We're supposed to talk

to each other

And to make decisions like this.

We're a team.

This is unbelie...
