remaining few days in town, so....

the last time we were together in a hotel junk.

A hostel of a star.

And we made plans.

For traveling, a dog, kids.

You know, our family.

And when we were together that night...

knew so well, because...

... he was special.

I could try to describe it...

Beautiful;

Wonderful;

Amazing;

Unbelievable what happened between us.

It was like...

we were able to

close the door to the world.

You know, I have this feeling...

When I left, I could...

see you at the corner of the eye.

He was there.

I swear that I supervised all

my dreams in one direction...

and he turned and went to the other side.

Never seen him?

Sometimes I can see it.

More or less.

Small fragments in my mind.

I wish I could review it.

Wished there was a

way to go back and relive everything.

So maybe

I could be prepared for what happened.

And do not take these...

Able to overcome.

Sorry.

Can not seem to overcome.

Chris?

Chris?

Hey, sorry for...

It was my fault.

Gotta go.

God! Rid yourself of guilt!

Not attractive.

You know, I think this is no place for me.

Tell Chris I will not need to return to his couch.

You are so lost!

Hey! You look lost.

I hear there is an old drive-in

on the road, I thought to get going but...

Let me guess...

Marines. Right?

Yes, in basic training.

They do the basics in 29 Palm.

Long story.

It is forever.

Hopefully things are of

always find a way and another.

Tell me something...

bus passes through here?

You do not need the bus.

I give him a ride.

Come in.

Carpe Diem eh?

Yes, it was my idea of u200bu200bthe bride.

She says I need to commit myself to more things.

Bride?

When will marry?

Actually, that's why I will be the city because

want to buy an engagement ring, before going home.

Saved enough money for an engagement ring?

It says something about you.

The announcement says that balances meeting in the city.

And you believed them?

The jewelers are always asking for half the head.

Really?

Yes

But I have an idea of u200bu200bhow to earn extra money.

To purchase this alliance.

Come in. Come on.

Get in the car.

Nice car.

Thanks.

Let's go.

Home Sweet Home!

Come in.

Want a drink?

A red wine or something else?

My mother drinks red wine.

Here you go.

I need to sign it.

Thank you.

What is this?

Just, you know...

give me your permission, blah, blah, blah...

who has over 18 years...

in the event of federal

appear asking for your identification.

If I do not have it, I end up in jail to take in the ass,

Believe me. I have been there!

Not as sexy as it sounds.

He has arrived.

Sit down, I come back.

It looks good.

The hair is longer than the photo, but...

work.

How much do I pay for this?

How much are you worth?

I do not know. Never did anything like that.

Five hundred?

Five hundred?

It pulled a bit eh?

I have to send money to my mother.

She is taking care of some things for me.

I gotta tell you...

lots of people do more for less.

Andy...

Nate.

Nate...

Andy.

Hello

So...

what type of model we are doing exactly?

Model?

Right. Let me ask you a few

questions so they know you a little.

Who are "they"?

Who sees it.

To be more interested in you.

You sure do not want a beer?

Where is the bathroom?

Ali!

Hurry!

Well done!

F***!

So where are you Andy?

Hollywood!

Who's Hollywood?

I.

But I'll go.

That's my plan.

Uhhhh! Running away from home.

Running away from home?

Just...

looking for my vocation.

I think.

Yes! It happens.

One day you open your eyes and you'll be ahead of you.

I hope so.

Will be!

Sure.

It happened to me.

Different cases, right?

And I should know!

Why do not you undress?

Stop!

I like!

Straight or gay porno?

Sorry?

No matter.

I find a movie for you.

Are all equal.

You know... this is not for me.

Hey! Where you going?

Sorry!

I do not...

Gotta go.

What's happening?

Listen...

is nothing special.

Do not have to touch each other,

just playing with yourself.

Do not have to touch each other.

This is not cool.

Why do not you go

swim in the pool a bit?

I'll get a cigarette and I climb.

F***!

Travis!

Travis!

Travis!

Tag!

Does not sound too good.

It was a real lab when I bought it.

I should have listened to my mother, of course.

Would take a look?

I just want to get out of here.

Yes, I too.

Well done!

OK, try now!

Do you hear that?

It's my good karma to offset.

I think that is your starter.

Want to go riding?

Where?

If I take it off again?

Can skate a little.

Breaded not want to be on the road alone.

Where you going?

To my mother's house in Los Angeles.

My house is on the road.

Join!

You'll be okay?

Yes, I am spending a season at home

then I have combat training.

And then embark on me.

And do you think it good?

It was not exactly my idea.

But you have to keep things, okay?

No. I mean,

you have no problems with the war?

For me it's just a job.

And I need a job.

God!

There was nothing you could do?

A family business or similar?

I thought to be mechanical.

Open a repair shop.

But my fiancee and my mother,

say there is no future in car repair.

It seems to me that you have many responsibilities, soldier.

This is what I seek.

So greet my mother,

go back to the road.

Permanently.

Where are you going?

I start by Joshua Tree,

and go from there.

Follow what then?

I do not know.

I just want to go away.

It is as if we were tied to the material world.

But, but what kind of world is it?

Look at your face.

See?

The infinite!

Stop whenever you want.

You do not want your girlfriend sees you?

Better to be surprised.

Even if it's just me.

It seems to me a lot.

Ok, so...

do not forget to go to a mechanic.

I'll try.

Good luck with a. .. Joshua Tree.

Good luck with your war.

Monta me Davey!

Mount Me!

I'll come!

Damn!

Trish.

Nate?

Yeah baby, I am.

Let me enter.

Where is the key?

What are you doing here?

Said he'd be tomorrow.

What? Would come back later?

You're kidding me??

Get out of here!

F*** this!

Are you okay?

What happened to your girl?

My boy came home early!

Where are you been?

Did you see the carrot cake in the refrigerator?

It's your favorite.

I knew it!

Did you know?

Yes Nate. It is too

old for you anyway,

you need be a new decent girl.

But it was you who join us.

She seemed like a good girl at work.

How could I

guess that she was with everyone?

With everyone??

Yes! She closed the bar every

nights since you went away.

Even gave a name to a drink

her honor, called the Bride of War.

I never should have enlisted.

So what are you gonna do?

Give up?

You think I give up?

How do I know?

You know, this is your father speaking.

No, it's not! My father has his

company itself is not a quitter.

How did you find the Mark?

I do not know. You used to write him e. ..

to tell your friends how he abandoned us, so...

I remembered his name and tried.

Why do not you want me to meet my father?

Nathan, if you call this man, I
