- No, No, go, Go, go, go,

Oh, Jimmy.

Sh*t, look at your arm.

The police.

No!.

- They're ready for us now.

- They said it was pretty nasty.

Let me get this straight. It took a bite

out of your arm, but you didn't see it at all?

Well, it all happened so fast

and it was dark.

Well, I saw it, It was a wolf, but bigger.

It was like a monster wolf.

Yeah, Jimmy,

I have your statement already.

Fine, don't believe me.

I know what I saw.

What happened to her...

What kind of an animal could do that?

A mountain lion, a bear, maybe.

There hasn't been a wolf sighting

in southern California in over 70 years.

- Mountain lion, my ass.

- Jimmy.

Please.

Why don't you go check on Zipper?

Don't worry.

Whatever it was, we'll find it.

Hey, buddy, are you OK?

Zipper?

- What's wrong?

Hey, smell, It's just me.

Hey! Hey, look what you did.

That's enough with the biting.

- Thanks.

- You're welcome.

- Hey, you guys be safe.

- All right, come on. Let's go.

Hey.

- Hey, Zipper. Come on in.

Hey, Zipper, come on in.

Hey. Whoa.

Freak.

- Well, good night.

- Hey.

What?

Don't you wanna talk

about what happened tonight?

- What's there to talk about?

- Jimmy, we were attacked.

We saw a girl get torn apart.

You wanna talk about the bear

or the mountain lion?

Look, I know you're mad at me,

but I didn't see what you saw.

I'm sorry,

but I don't know what else to say.

OK, well, uh, thanks for the talk.

Good night.

Oh, come on, Jimmy.

I'm trying here.

'Unsolved...'

OK.

Jesus, '1600 animal attacks...'

'...large wolf-like animals...'

Oh, my God.

Jesus.

- Oh, sorry, I didn't mean to scare you.

- What are you doing here?

I just... I needed to talk to you.

I found the extra key under the mat.

I'm really sorry.

I just, I feel so terrible

about how we left things tonight.

- Jake, what's going on?

- I'm just scared, Ellie.

I'm scared.

I never expected

to meet a woman like you.

Jake, you're the only good thing

that's happened in my life in a long time.

I'm scared too.

I'm terrified,

because all the good things

keep going away.

I'm not going anywhere.

Here in Los Angeles,

a young woman was attacked and killed

by an unidentified wild animal

when her car ran off the road last night,

high in the Hollywood hills.

the victim's name has yet to be released.

It happened on a remote stretch of

Mulholland Drive, shortly before midnight.

Animal control officers speculate

that it might have been a bear

that wandered into the area

in search of water.

It is the first such fatal attack

in Los Angeles...

- Hey.

- How are you doing? Did you sleep OK?

I woke up in the bushes.

You woke up where?

Are you feeling OK?

I'm calling Dr, Steinberg.

No, no, I'm fine. Really.

Actually... I feel kinda great.

OK.

But I'm gonna make an appointment. They

said we should follow up with another shot.

For all we know,

that wolf could've had rabies.

Oh. Oh, so now it's a wolf.

Jimmy, I never said it wasn't.

I just said I didn't see it.

It was more like a werewolf.

And I found this website last night

and according to legend.

a werewolf feeds during the lunar cycle -

that's the three nights around the full moon.

Last night was the first moon

of the lunar cycle.

Why can't you just download porn

like other teenage boys?

Excuse me for trying

to make conversation.

OK, so what would a werewolf

be doing in LA?

shouldn't it be off in the countryside

somewhere, terrorizing helpless maidens?

Maybe it's a hip werewolf, Maidens come

here with the perfectly implanted breasts.

- You should get to school,

- Hey, I was bitten by a werewolf.

If that's not good enough for a sick day...

I could be cursed.

Everybody's cursed, Jimmy.

It's called life.

No, I mean by the mark of the beast.

Is that what the kids

are calling it these days?

- Here you go.

- Thanks.

- Whoa, Hey, Ellie.

- Hey, Kyle.

Hey, '70s retro week is booking up, Do we

want Keith Partridge or Marcia Brady?

- Only one slot left.

- Marcia, Marcia, Marcia.

You look different today,

saucy, I like it.

- Yeah, it's new, Gauze look.

- Nice, What happened?

- Oh, you don't wanna know.

- Hey, are you OK?

Yeah. Actually, I'm fine.

Incoming psycho publicist, one o'clock.

...no trades, Oh, I have to go.

Yeah, OK, Goodbye.

Hi,

I didn't recognize you

with your hair down.

I just wanted to drop by to make sure we

were set for Scotts pre-interview tonight.

- Absolutely, Nine o'clock.

- Great, Is that what you're gonna wear?

Hey, I heard that you're dating

Jake Taylor, Is that true?

- I hope it's nothing serious.

- Why not?

I guess it was only a matter of time

before he got to you.

- He always did prefer the vulnerable ones.

- OK, well, I'll see you tonight, Joannie.

I'm only saying this because I care.

Is there anything else, Joannie?

No, Tonight, Don't be late.

- OK, Thank you.

- OK.

Putting on weight, Kyle?

- What a piece of work.

- I do not like that woman.

- No, Apparently Jake didn't either.

- I didn't even know that she knew him.

- Do you think she's right about him?

- No, The woman's cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

But I'm not the one dating him.

I just know he's not the only guy in town.

What smells so good?

I... I don't smell anything.

I get these.

It's nothing, I'll live.

The blood freaking you out?

- Hey, Brooke, you need some change?

- Hey, Jimmy.

That'd be great.

Stupid thing won't take my dollar.

Oh, yeah, OK, Actually...

- I'll hold those.

- Thanks.

Werewolves, huh?

Oh, it's just a stupid report I'm doing.

- Here you go.

- Thanks.

No, keep your money.

It's on me, Thanks.

- Geek juice.

- Trying out for the wrestling team, Jimmy?

- Oh, no, I don't wrestle.

Oh, I'd think all that male-to-male contact

would be right up your alley.

Is, uh... Is that the appeal for you?

Oh, Back talk.

Haven't you been team captain

for, like, two years now?

Nicely done, Jimmy.

Did you just attempt a confrontation?

- Yeah, maybe.

- Let me know when you're sure.

Just ignore him, Jimmy.

Let's get out of here

before we get homo-stained.

Hey, Hey.

(# ''freaks come Out At Night''

by Whodini)

# Now the party's jumping,

the place is packed

# But when the crowd's like this

I'm ready to rap

# But before I could

bust a thyme on the mic

# freaks are all over me

like white on rice

# freaks come in all shapes

and sizes and colors

# But what I like about them most

is that they're real good lovers

# they do it in the park,

they do it in the dark

# But most freaks are known

for breaking hearts

Joannie.

- Joannie.

- There you are.

What is this? Come as

your favorite endangered species?

Obnoxious, isn't it?

I just feel a little underdressed

without a tail.

Well, that's part of your charm,

Take this, I will tell Scott that you're here.

Well, I think you look fantastic.

- What are you doing here?

- I needed to see you.

What about the opening?

Disappearing for a few days.

- That didn't go over so well, did it?

- You know what? It's fine.
