[ Muttering ]

MADDY:
Hi.

You guys come to get me|in trouble again?

Uh, no.|We're off-duty.

We're not troublemakers.|We're innocent.

Don't we look innocent|together?

So, what'd you think|of the game?

What game?

It's going to be like that, huh?

Just grab the 10.

- What?|- The 10.

- 10 what?|- 10 freeway!

RADIO:
Know when I'm rolling,|the trick is to keep it going

Flowing over nobody,|not knowing my head swollen

Who can control it, if you|try to say it's heartbroken

Looking for me, and I swear|it's in a careless motion

All the way down|by the pound

The sh*t you read about,|a nice, round figure

Anyone can figure out

And everything's for nothing|if you're willing to try

You got to make it,|you got to try to stay high

'Cause everybody|is in on something else

You gotta, you gotta find out|who and what it is

[ Tires squealing ]

[ Music stops ]

MADDY:
God, dude,|could you live any further?

I told you it was far.

You wanted to take me.|Damn.

Shut up, dude.|You think you're down...

because you scored weed|in Pico Union one time?

NICOLE:
I'm telling you,|it was twice.

MADDY:
One time.

Two times, b*tch.

Two times.

- Are you OK?|- Yeah, I'm fine.

[ Laughs ]

- Oh, yeah?|- Yeah.

Well, what can I touch?

CARLOS:
|What can you touch?

- Oh, come on, Carlos.|- Whoa, slow down.

- Why?|- Chill, girl.

Hey, you guys.

Damn,|that feels good, but...

NICOLE:
But what?

You guys!

MADDY:
You guys.|Are you guys hungry?

Because I'm starving.
