I don't know why | that just stuck out,

I don't... yeah, | I just... um, well,

- I was going to go, | - OK,

Jesus, You remember that?

Yeah,

Yeah, I do,

- I got a funny memory that way, | - Oh,

Anyway, hey, | I... I don't want to bug you,

I know you got | lots of people to see,

I just wanted to say | how happy I am for you, and,

Oh, thanks, Thank you,

It's... I always thought | you had something special,

This,

You know, it's just amazing | what you've been able to do,

well, from,

Or, well, yeah,

No, I'm just... I'm... thank you, | Thank you,

Right, Good, Well, hey,

- Cheers, Good to see you, | - Thank you, Cheers,

I couldn't "Cheers" you, | I don't have a drink,

but, well, sh*t,

Ha ha! | Birchers lighting guy,

Birchers,

Get me a... | why don't you come with me?

- Yeah, OK, | - OK,

- Nicholas, Oh, my goodness, | - Oh, God,

- Uhh, | - Let's get you on the sofa,

- Oh, God, did I just... | - Yes, you did,

- Ohh, | - Go slowly,

Ah, Catherine, I'm sorry,

Are you all right?

- Here's some water, | - Oh, thank you so much,

- I feel a little light headed, | - Here, have some water,

- Yeah, | - Drink it,

Yeah? | Are you sure you're all right?

- Mm-hmm, | - Thank goodness,

- I need to ask you something, | - What?

I need you to come back | to New York with me,

Nicholas, I can't...

Catherine, it's that letter,

Well, but that was...

I've never had anybody | write me a love letter,

- Never, | - But I just...

No, listen,

You're here, | You there just makes sense,

You write the article,

Nicholas, these kind of things...

A moment of inspiration,

that's all | anybody ever really wants,

Mmm,

To have an original idea,

to fall in love,

It takes courage,

to surrender these things,

Especially when you have | control issues,

I get that a lot,

I know what | they're going to talk about,

when they talk about me,

They're going to talk | about the mustache,

People are so f***ing petty,

People say, | "God, what's up with that?

"Like, didn't you know | that Chaplin had it first?"

Yeah! I knew, OK?

It's either the name | of your first pet,

and the first street | that you ever lived on,

or it's your middle name,

and the first street | that you lived on,

Well, which is it? | I think... is it pet?

- Pet, | - It's pet,

So, if it's pet... | all right.

WOMAN:
I'm Daisy Bufane.

Daisy Bufane?

Jo Jo Mountainview,

I would be Peavey Meander.

- What? | - Peavey Meander,

Meander,

- Thurston Craddock. | - Hmm.

Uh, Baron Von Hugecock,

What? | That's... that was my street,

I lived on | Van Hugecock Avenue,

MAN:
The little kid | who lives on Van Hugecock.

FRANCESCA:
| Oh, God, where is Gus?

- Save us from this misery. | - Uhh.

CARL:
| So, it's your middle name...

- Right. | - first.

CARL:
And then... and then...

the name of the street | that you grew up on,

HEA THER:
OK.

Lolita...

Honeysuckle.

CALVIN:
| All right, I'll open it.

Obviously, everybody, | Gus is not here...

so I was thinking,

to pass the time, | why don't we all just kind of,

whoever wants to, stand up | and give our little Gus stories,

Uh, so, let me start off,

I think | my favorite Gus moment,

was when he called me | at 1:20 in the morning...

to ask what | I really thought about him.

WOMAN:
What'd you say?

What did I say? | What did I say?

I said,"Well, Gus,

"I'm going to think the same | thing at 10. 00 in the morning,"

Then I hung up,

- Whatever. | - Calvin.

Aw,

It's all right, It's all right,

Listen, | let's get down to business.

If someone wants to stand up, | please, feel free.

The floor is open.

MAN, TAPPING GLASS: | All right. I got one, Calvin.

Yes, | that's right, that's right.

So, Gus and I... some of you | may not know this...

Gus and I used | to hunt together, all right?

And this one time, we're

and, uh, Gus climbs down,

to relieve himself | in the bushes, OK?

And, uh... it gets funnier. | It gets funnier.

So, uh...

Wow. Thank you, man.

I can't tell you | how much that means to me.

I really appreciate that, | you know?

Especially coming | from someone like you,

who writes and acts and directs | and plays the sax,

Originally, | I kind of felt like,

it was really coming after me, | you know?

Now I feel like | I'm coming after it,

Perfect,

It's not coming after me, | I'm going to get it,

- Can you grab that sword? | - I'm already on it, man,

It's weird, I was watching | this interview with Al,

- Pacino? | - Yeah,

And he was talking | about the differences,

between stage acting | and film acting,

and he was talking about | how being on stage,

is like being on this high wire, | like, a hundred feet up,

And if you fall, | you're f***ed,

but acting in film is like | having the wire on the,

- Ground, | - On the Ground,

Oh, OK, you've heard that,

Yeah, man, working for guys | like you and Carl,

- the writing, just everything... | - Aw, come on, man,

Where is Carl, by the way? | Is he,

He had a party to go to,

Oh, that's right, | Is that that producer guy?

- Gus Delario, | - Oh, OK,

That's not too shabby, | Carl owns a tux, huh?

Mm-hmm,

Huh, Not just one of those | shirts with the design on it?

You know, he says | good luck and break a leg,

Thank you, Thank you,

Did I tell you about tomorrow?

Yeah, F***, man,

That should go really good, | Ann? Is that her name?

Yeah, It's a nice name,

I hope so, man, | I've been looking a long time,

Yeah, I hear you, | It's hard, I don't know,

You want to go for a beer | or something?

No, I got to teach a pilates | class, but thank you,

FRANCESCA:
| Shouldn't we all say grace?

I think you're right,

Listen, it's been 45 minutes,

so let's eat, | Everybody dig in,

MAN:
Thank you.

FRANCESCA:
| Even at a party... bossy, bossy.

CALVIN:
You know you love it. | You love it. You know you do.

- Oh! | - Oh!

FRANCESCA:
| What are you doing? Sh*t.
