We need that money,

For the first month of rent,

If we don't get enough

students then we're gonna be...

Is this funny to you?

No, I just...

The line's breaking up,

I can't hear you anymore.

- May?

- Hello?

- May?

- Hello?

Oh, he's pissed.

And I haven't even told him

I'm out of town.

You're a beautiful,

powerful woman.

Some old b*tch

told me that once.

- Hey -

You wanna tell me what's going on?

No, I don't know

what happened back there,

It just cut out.

So listen,

I am at my mom's place at

Santa Barbara with Shiva,

And I will be home

in time for class tomorrow.

What?

Yeah, and we did

drive the marlin,

And we used an entire

tank of gas,

And it was really fun.

I love that car

And I don't want to sell it.

Okay?

I love you so much, Dex.

Bye.

"May is passionate

about sharing this practice

"Which so profoundly

changed her life."

"It gives her great joy to see how peace

unfolds in the lives of her students."

It just sounds like bullshit.

I mean, honestly,

most the people that teach this

Wanna have a nice ass.

Nothin' wrong

with having a nice ass.

You wanna see my page?

You have a webpage?

An ad.

Here, give me.

"Angel will give you

the sexiest massage"

"With the happiest ending

you could dream of,"

"And nothing gives her

more pleasure."

As if.

It's all f***ing bullshit.

Don't take it so seriously.

But it's different,

I mean yoga is about truth.

Isn't sex?

What was it like the first time

You... did it,

Like...

Well how else do you say it?

That I did it.

Mmm. Cody and I

were at this party,

And this guy came up to me,

And he was like,

"I'll give you 500 bucks

if you come home with me."

And of course

I thought he was kidding.

And then I realized he wasn't.

And then, I thought

Cody would f***ing freak,

But he didn't.

We needed the money.

You gotta let your hair down

every once in a while.

Like a f***ing pro.

Don't tell anybody.

Oh, f***, oh I love this song.

Mmm.

- I'm not coming up.

- Come on.

Yeah, she gave me

the money just like that.

Easiest money I ever made.

Yeah, I can get more,

stop bitching at me.

She's rich, okay?

I'll be home this afternoon.

Um, okay.

Yeah, I love you. Bye.

Hey.

We should probably

get goin', huh?

Okay, yeah. Sure.

I'm not trying

to steal your money.

I just said that

because I don't want

Him to kill me when I get home.

If you don't want

to go back, don't.

Yeah?

You can stay with me and Dex

for a few nights.

Take this moment

to feel the calm in your body.

To feel the peace

in every cell of your being.

Rolling over onto your side,

Come up into a comfortable,

seated position.

Put your hands on your heart.

Gently opening your eyes,

Bringing that sense

of peace and oneness

To everything

that you see today.

Namaste.

Namaste.

Okay, you guys,

thank you so much.

See you next week, we're open.

Very exciting.

Bye, see you tomorrow.

Hey.

Hey.

So, what can I do for you?

Uh, Shiva left this

at our place.

Wouldn't happen to have

seen her would you?

Well, that's ironic, right?

"Shiva".

You know, I was uh,

I was born in new Mexico.

The home of the nuclear bomb.

Oh yeah?

Yeah, yeah.

You know what the guy

said who invented it,

When we saw

the first one explode,

You know what he said?

He said, "I am Shiva,

Destroyer of worlds."

You see, that's the thing

about Shiva,

You know,

you get too close to her,

And everything you ever loved

can be destroyed,

Just like the bomb.

That's funny,

speak of the devil, right?

What are you doing here?

Well, you know, it's funny,

'Cause I could ask

the same f***ing thing to you.

What are you doing?

I'm hanging out,

I was just, um...

Gonna... I was gonna

come home soon.

- Oh, really?

- - Mmm-Hmm.

Wow.

You know, that was so nice of

you to call and let me know.

I mean, you girls

been having a nice time

While I was in jail?

Huh?

Shiva's gonna stay here

for a few nights.

Oh yeah?

Yeah.

I'm gonna get my stuff.

Anyway, like I was saying,

You never really know

what you're gonna get.

And it's not like

I imagine you two girls

Having much in common,

anyway, right?

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

Excuse me.

Please don't leave with him.

You don't want to deal with this,

trust me.

I don't care.

I will call the police.

What are they gonna do?

They will make him leave.

Like he wouldn't come back.

I gotta go.

Please.

Look, remember how you said

that it was fate that we met?

That's what it's like

with me and Cody,

So there's no use

in fighting it.

This is exactly

what he wants you to think,

But you have a choice.

Pressure, that's it, man.

I understand this guy, right?

- Uh... Dex.

- Dex.

Dex is amazing,

he was just telling me

How yoga might help me

with my headaches.

You know, apparently,

I have too much

stress in my life.

I mean, I don't even know

how I get up in the morning.

- Let's go.

- All right, but you see,

The trouble is,

it's my girlfriend here,

She's always in a rush,

makes me crazy.

Hey, man,

I know exactly what you mean.

Uh, if you're interested

seriously, take that.

Baby, he doesn't want that.

Oh, Pico and Lincoln, yeah.

Yeah, exactly.

That's right above the print shop.

Okay, I'll look for it.

- Thank you.

- Cody.

- Good to meet you.

- Yeah, Dex.

All right.

Take care.

See you guys.

Why were you so nice to him?

He's your sister's boyfriend.

He is her pimp.

Shiva's a whore?

Don't call her that.

What do you want me to call her?

Prostitute?

A sex worker.

- It doesn't make a difference.

- Yeah, it does.

Fine, she's a sex worker.

And you gave her our money.

You know, Dex,

I just wanted to help her.

She probably set you up

from the beginning

So she could get our money.

Did you even think

about that, may?

Well, if she did,

she is welcome to it.

She needs it a lot more

than we do.

You're telling me

that this woman is a prost...

A sex worker, and it's okay

If she comes into our home?

Why does it matter to you

so much what she does?

Because I don't want

that energy in my house.

And neither should you.

What energy?

Okay, stop.

Let's just stop.

Let's just leave this.

Let's go.

We're gonna be late.

Do you have the info?

Here.

That's awesome.

We'll definitely be there.

- See you guys tomorrow. Bye.

- Yeah, see you. Bye.

What is that?

It's the money

that I gave Shiva,

And the key to our place

that she didn't take.

Good.

This is literally karma in action.

- I have to get this to her right now.

- Wh... May, just...

Let's take a while and think

about what you're doing.

I don't want to take a moment

to think about anything.

- We'll be coming tomorrow.

- Excellent.

- Namaste. Namaste.

- Namaste.

Okay, bye.

Let's not talk about

this here right now.

This is not appropriate.

You know what?

F*** appropriate.

Shh. Let's just

talk about this outside.

What is it with you and this...

You know what,

this is what you're interested in?

This is all you f***ing

care about?
