You know, now I'm here.

We can hang out, you know?

Continue where we left off

and maybe even do the...

-Can I come in?

-No.

Okay.

Yeah, I feel...

This is the first place I drove,

you know what I mean?

I was just like, I wanted to...

I'm working on the backyard.

You have to go around.

Oh.

I know I f***ed up.

But I'm here, I'm back.

I wanna stay up 24 hours

with you, 48 hours.

I haven't been able

to stop thinking about it.

We've got to do it.

What was your breakfast about

to make you change

your mind like this?

I had a high protein breakfast.

Normally I just have sugar.

I'm serious.

What changed?

The truth is that

I've never actually

gotten close enough

to somebody to love them.

That's the truth.

So it's just new for me,

that's all.

But that doesn't mean

I don't wanna try.

You know, I felt finally free

for a second last night.

Like I was actually

being myself.

And I just wanna do that.

So when you feel free,

you just run away?

I have, yeah.

-Will you do that again?

-No.

-Promise?

-Yes.

Promise?

I promise.

Okay.

-Okay?

-Yeah.

It's just eight o'clock.

I arrived at...

near 7:
00 p.m.

Mm-hmm.

Okay.

And sex every hour. Right?

-Can I touch you now?

-No.

-Hi.

-Hi, hi.

What's that?

It's a song that...

This is the song I want

to sing in the showcase.

-Oh, yeah?

-Yeah.

Just-- You play piano?

Not really, no.

You were playing the piano.

I was just touching it.

You have to help me

with this song.

I know you can. I've heard you.

Okay.

I don't know. I can't...

My ears aren't too good, but...

Mm. Liar. Come on.

Struggling within

Quite a try and truth

Oh, how long it takes

Too high? Yeah?

That's good.

-Okay. So if I...

Come on, do it,

do it with both hands.

Maker of mistakes

I prayed and I felt it

Struggling with this

Quite a try and truth

Like, harmonize?

Oh, how long it takes

It's beautiful.

You have to sing

this song for me.

Okay.

Both of us together,

or aren't you singing?

No, you. Just you.

Okay.

Okay.

Just back from the pill

Trying out a new brand

Oh...

Our costume is so absurd

Underneath the...

New sign

You have to suck this

right out of my body.

Is Sergio

your real name?

Yeah.

Why did your mom

name you Sergio?

She wanted a boy,

but I was a girl.

And then she thought,

"Okay, I'm gonna keep Sergio

in the middle name."

-Hmm.

-And when I was a kid,

and I wanted to have

Susanna's attention,

I took a sh*t.

-My sh*t was little sh*t,

because I was a kid.

-Sure.

And then I put this

little sh*t,

because my shits

were like this...

Yeah, and you cut it up

like a sausage or something?

Like a sausage.

So I put it on the floor

-and Susanna always thought

it was the dog.

-What?

Naima?

Look at me. Look.

You are so beautiful.

You're so, so...

so beautiful.

Say it.

Shout it.

Shout it to the f***ing moon.

I can't.

Yeah, you can.

Say it to her.

-You have to say it with me.

-Yeah.

-I am so beautiful!

-She is so beautiful!

Stop being jealous!

Stop it!

The first time

I discovered masturbating

was on a sheepskin rug.

I would, like, rub up on it

while looking at myself

in the mirror.

I did the same with pillows.

-With pillows?

-Mm-hmm. With my cousin.

But then, her boyfriend

came and saw us.

-Really?

-Yeah.

Is your boyfriend still there?

He's still there.

So my friend

had her third kid.

And I was like, "How can you

still be having kids?"

It's like, you know the world

that you're birthing them into.

I just think

it's really selfish.

This is the kind of stuff

you were telling these ladies

at the bar. Why?

Why would somebody

have ten kids?

This thing is born

into the world,

and it's, like,

ruining their lives.

And they just pretend slowly

-Stop.

-that it doesn't...

Okay.

-Don't you think every parent

hates their kid?

-No.

People eventually

are going to be starving.

We have an end, you know.

There's an end.

So, what we can do

till now?

Get depressed about it?

I think I feel more

connected to people

when I feel like we're both

on the same page.

I think you depress people

when you're talking about that.

So I'm not supposed

to depress people?

I'm supposed to, like...

-make 'em happy?

-What do you think?

Every day I wake up

and I'm reading the news,

and it's just like one more

depressing thing after another.

What are you doing?

Are you doing something?

You can help Maxine.

I feel like I just want

to turn into a soldier,

where someone knocks

at my door one day and is like,

"It's over. Here's your weapon.

Let's go."

And I'd go.

But until then, I'm...

I'm knocking at your door.

God, no!

Stop!

Stop. Let's be friends.

The war is not happening yet.

The people we--

Oh, my God!

That's so disgusting!

It's wet. It's hot.

It's wet. It's hot.

It's hot. It's hot.

Okay, baby. I stop. I stop.

Promise. Promise.

Seriously, stop.

Tell me, what is more scary?

The end of the world

or this sh*t?

Right now this sh*t,

right now.

Are there people back there?

Let's go and do it

in front of them.

What?

-No.

-Yes.

We hide.

Okay.

Just act normal.

It's so good to see you.

Yeah,

it's been too long.

I thought you'd changed

your number or something.

No, I've just been so wrapped up

in work these days.

I remember

the last time I saw you

was at Jeremy's house,

when we did sake bombs

and then I threw up

on Cindy's jacket.

You always seem to be

very sociable.

I was just slutty is the truth.

But it's worked out for me now.

"Slutty"?

Sergio, I have to get one take.

Just because the boy

is saying to you

you're sociable,

you say you are slutty?

I mean, I don't...

It's not a good movie.

It's not a good movie

then why you wanna do it?

'Cause I need a job.

You should really do stuff

you wanna do.

If not, you are just

giving these people

just your talent for nothing.

You are giving a presentation

of who you are.

I think you should just

e-mail these guys

and tell them, "Look--"

I can't e-mail.

The last time I told--

-"You are a f***ing

misogynist."

-No.

And just go and start

writing your own movie,

telling something

you have inside.

Recently when I told somebody

what I about thought 'em,

I got fired.

You got fired because

you said them what you thought?

Yeah. And I didn't think

it was going well,

so at lunch, I like,

talked to them about it,

and it just did not go well.

Okay, then f*** this tape.

Come, e-mail these guys.

-No, I have to do this tape.

-Really, I'm telling you.

You should e-mail

those guys who fired you

and tell them

why they are wrong.

I mean, they won't

take you seriously

if you don't say, "No."

They fired you.

They will never ever

hire you again.

So, what can you lose?

Yeah.

-Tell them!

-Okay.

So, okay. As an artist...

And I'm talking

to an artist too.

-As an artist speaking...

-To an artist.

...to other artists,

because there's two of them.

Other artists.

You know that the most

important is to be honest
