what the hell's a pinion?

it's a snake, I remember that from biology class in high school

we walk a few meters that way and there should be a flag marking the spot

how far is a meter?

what the f*** man, we should be at our goal by now

everyone just calm down, Charlie give me the compass.

Charlie, this compass is broken, couldn't you tell?

give me the map

lemme here has lead us in the wrong direction

oh f*** off

so where the hell are we Richfield?

please tell me we're not lost

we're not bloody lost

yes thanks to you we're bloody lost

thanks to me? I take over for one minute and no it's my fault we're lost!

I give in. I vote we stay here for the night.

it's getting dark and we are literally just wondering in the desert

we can't stay here, we'll die out here and I ain't getting bit by a f***ing pinion

a pinion is a tree, you idiot

and we're not going to die. haven't you guys ever been camping?

yeah, at a camp ground with an outhouse and a tent, I'm out, Charlie

I'm with Kevin, I like the urbane jungle not this sh*t. you guys are staying? I'm not lingering

maybe we should go with them

then go, they have no idea where they are going

and you do? you know where we are going?

relax, someone will be by before we know it

relax, somebody will find us, let's just stay here..

are you kidding? nobody is on their way you're bloody idiot.

what about coyotes and snakes and bloody scorpions? I read about it in the manual.

alright, look I told you not to worry, are you really that soft and pampered that you can't just

lay out in the desert for a few hours and cool off?

I'm very pampered as a matter of fact. My parents have entitlement and breeding.

I'm not accustomed to roughing it , ever.

you think you're so bloody macho that you can run over everyone around you

well you can't run over me.

What are you talking about?

Please. the team exercise. You didn't motivate anybody.

you used it as an opportunity to flex your muscles.

It was complete arrogance.

You know what, you're the arrogant one, you couldn't even bothered to lift a figure

it was a team exercise and you made it perfectly clear that you didn't need any body's help.

you can't , you can't leave me alone

I won't

bloody freezing

it's amazing how the temperature dips after the sun sets

don't you feel cold?

yeah but I'm just not bitching

stop playing bloody hero

you don't get stars like this in LA

you can't see much of anything but smog

I use to love star gazing as a kid

did you? not shooting birds in the wood

what kind of monster do you think I am?

I don't know you well enough to guess

yeah well I'm actually a nice guy

you have that on your curriculum vitae

my what?

your resume

yeah I know what a CV is alright!

I didn't get where I am today because I'm a freaking idiot

and where are you today officer Miller?

lost in the freaking desert

you're lost too

well you got us lost copper

the compass was broken

sorry to offend an officer of the LAPD!

you're going to hit me. you were going to hit me

go ahead and hit me, you want me? pick me?

you have f***ing courage Richfield

go ahead, I know you've wanted to

You're so f***ing paranoid that I'm going to take your precious Foist account.

did you know that Parsons promised it to me? it was a condition of my God damn employment!

I'm bloody boiling now

Richfield, you are high maintenance

you're right about that

Mark, are you gay?

no, that was um... and you?
