break, come down here,

and re-orient and center myself.

Dude, this is unbelievable.

- You want?

- Yeah, please.

Let me feel for a second.

Let's see if this jogs your

f***ing memory a little bit.

Don...

You think this is

a f***ing joke?

I brought you down here

for a f***ing reason.

To meet the f***ing grim reaper

face to face

and say, "can I have

f***ing forgiveness?"

I couldn't get rid of it,

I had to hold on to it.

Yeah, there you go.

It still f***ing works, man.

Yeah, you still got it.

Don't even look at me, don't look at me.

I said, don't look at me.

Officer, I didn't do it,

I swear to god.

I swear to f***ing god,

don't do it.

Now, dude, that was

f***ing chill, dude,

you looked so f***ing chill

when you just did that.

Do that again?

- Do that again. Blow on it.

- What just now I did?

Yeah, just blow the smoke

off the barrel.

Yeah, there it is.

- That's right.

- Yeah.

You want to go to the movies?

- Today?

- Yeah, now.

- I thought you had to go back?

- No.

Yeah. Yeah, f***.

I'm going back tomorrow morning. Let's

do that. Let's go to the movies.

All right, yeah, cool.

Hey, Peter it's just your friendly

real estate agent calling.

I just have a couple questions

about the house.

I don't know if you're around

tonight, if you want to hang out.

I'm just kidding. Oh, god, I'm so sorry.

Just give me a call back, all right.

Hey, don.

Hey, what do you want to get?

Uh...

Pete, I'm not going to pay the theater

prices, so pick something out.

I don't know if you're in the mood

for something sweet or savory,

or something more salty.

- I don't want... -I'll have

whatever you're having.

No, that's what

I don't want to happen!

I don't want you digging into

my munchies during the theater.

I want you to pick

something out yourself.

I'm really not hungry. We can

get something afterwards.

Yeah, you say that now, but I know for

a fact when we're in the theater,

you're gonna be digging

into my munchies.

Listen, I got to make a phone call, okay?

I'll be right outside.

Who are you calling?

Co-worker.

- Huh?

- Someone from work.

All right, well, you better just not

eat my stuff, so, that's your choice.

What? What do you mean?

You weren't being insensitive.

I don't know, I just feel

like I was being weird.

No! No, no, no,

I was being weird,

I'm sorry,

I was like, you know...

It's just my head was in another

place, sorry, I apologize.

- Okay. Okay, good. I just

wanted to make sure. -Okay.

So what are you doing now?

Nothing. What are you doing?

Uh, I don't know, do you maybe

want to hang out?

Yeah, yeah.

What do you want to do?

Well, I have this super weird

thing I have to go to.

It's got an open bar, but...

All right. Yeah. I don't care,

that sounds cool. Let's do that.

Okay, yeah, it's a benefit.

So lets go to the bar there.

Yeah, that's perfect. Do you want

to just text me the address?

Yes! Okay,

I'll see you there.

All right, okay, sounds good.

Do that, bye.

Bye!

I got you runts.

Nice!

Yeah, I just knew you were gonna be

munching hard once we got in there.

Nice.

Is everything all set,

can we go?

Yeah, uh, listen,

I just talked to, uh...

Kristin Meken.

All right.

She wants to hang out.

So...

Like, go to the movies with us?

No, like, she wants to go on a date.

She wants to get a drink.

So, I...

Like, the three of us?

No, just, uh, me.

So you don't want

to go to the movies?

Not tonight. All right?

But I really want to.

Okay? And we will.

But if you could just give me

a ride over to, uh,

Benedict, that'd be

really sweet.

Hey, what are you doing?

What are you doing?

- Donald. -I'm not f***ing going

to the movies by myself, so...

Donald!

Let's go if you wanna go,

you asked me to do this.

Come on, man. It's f***ing

Kristin, like, like...

I don't give a f***

whoever the f*** it is.

These were plans

you wanted to do.

I'm sorry, dude...

I'm not f***ing going to go to the

movies by myself, so let's f***ing go.

This was just something

that you said you want to do.

I'm going to see a movie with you at

some point, I promise you, I promise...

Don, I'm sorry, man, I just...

You understand.

Right?

Don?

You think I could actually

get that 20 bucks?

That'd be really sweet.

Don, I really appreciate it.

Thank you.

I'll see you, pal.

Hey.

Thanks for coming!

Oh, my gosh! You're here.

Oh, wow! Wow, wow, wow.

I've got a lot of things

going on here. I got that.

So, what do you want to drink?

Um...

All right, I have

a little confession, okay?

I... lost my wallet.

- Oh, my, that sucks!

- I feel pathetic, I know.

Well, don't worry,

I got you covered.

- Really?

- Yes.

All right, all right.

- What do you like to drink?

- Just a beer.

What... wow! Wow!

- I'd look like a drunk.

- No, you don't.

Is this normal?

Is this normal here?

I mean, I've already

had three, so, you know...

I saw on Facebook that you're

very active in your business...

- oh, wait, you've been following

me on Facebook? -Well, I just...

Wait, you just pretended

that you didn't know me!

You know, you remember me

from, you do remember me...

No, no, no, no,

no, no, no, listen...

So you do remember me?

I just can't believe you're not

wearing eyeliner anymore.

Yeah, you know...

- Yeah.

- That's good.

I'm glad for you.

I'm really glad for me too.

- Are you still listening

to heavy metal? -No.

I'm getting lost in these.

No, keep it coming.

Keep it coming.

Keep it coming?

Yeah, you're getting lost in...

We should probably go somewhere.

Where do we go?

Where do you wanna go?

Uh, anywhere, but here.

Why? Is this bad?

Is this dangerous?

Yeah, be careful. Come on,

let's go somewhere.

It's dangerous.

Take your baby by the hand

and do the next thing

that you feel

we were so in phase

in our dance hall days

we were cool on craze

when I, you

and everyone we knew

could believe, do and share

what was true I said

dance hall days love

take your baby by the hand

and pull her close

and there, there, there

take your baby by the ears

and play upon her

darkest fears

we were so in phase

why don't you

just f*** me in the kitchen?

Where they prepare the food!

There's somebody at the door.

There's somebody standing

at the door!

- Donald?

- Yeah.

- What are you doing, man?

- Yeah, you got room for three?

Eww, do you know him?

Hey, Donald, stop it.

- You did it.

- Donald, stop.

Congratulations, man.

Congratulations.

Please, not now...

I just had to

tell you something.

Okay, what? What?

Who is this guy?

- I'm his best friend.

- What do you want, Donald?

He was talking about f***ing

you all night and all day.

- Excuse me! Don't talk to me like that.

- What do you want?

Brother, you did it.

Okay, I'm just gonna

go sit back down.

Donald, stop.

You're not going

to wanna see this.

Well, you sound retarded.

Go home, man!

F*** off!

It's really great to see how many

of you have come out to support us.
