Oh, my God.

LEE:
I mean, I'm wearing | a linen suit, for God's sake...

and mascara's | running all over my face...

And I'm the only f***ing car | in the parking lot.

It's, late,

Hey, where did you go?

Why?

He's what?

OK, OK, look, look, look,

We'll call down, and I'll say | I left something in here,

and I came up and I knocked | and he didn't answer, OK?

What? What? | Lee, I don't know what!

- Just wait, | - F***!

Wait for what? Oh, my God!

A few hours ago he was alive, | OK? He was really alive!

Oh, man!

F***, f***! Do not touch him!

- Jesus Christ! | - Oh, my God!

Of course he's cold!

CARL:
I don't know | ifyou can calculate...

I don't know | if you can quantify...

the effect that would have | on a ten-year-old girl.

I think Lee is like...

Have you ever seen | a dog get hit by a car...

but walk away?

And... there's this impact...

and you know | something terrible...

has happened to that dog...

but it walks away...

and it doesn't seem to even | realize the implications...

'cause it just goes on.

But you know | that something terrible...

has happened inside this dog.

LEE:
| Why do you think he did it?

Oh, God, I don't know,

It's some weird sex thing, | I don't know,

LEE:
No. Not this.

Ohh,

CARL:
That's, I think, | what happened to Lee.

It's like... it's like...

She's a dog that got hit by | a car, and she walked away...

and she's still walking, but...

LINDA:
I don't know. | I guess he was really sad.

CARL:
Some very, very | important things...

inside her are damaged.

LEE:
Oh.

Jesus.

CARL:
So... my wife and I | were having trouble...

and I said I thought | maybe we were in a rut...

and that maybe | we should try something...

to liven things up, | and she said,"Like what?"

And I said like maybe we should | tape ourselves doing it.

And she was | completely shocked by this...

and she thought | it was beyond disgusting...

and that was that | for, like, four months.

And then one night, | out of the blue...

she says,"Let's do it. "

Ohh,

So, we get it all set up, and | I'm ready and she's ready,

and, uh, and she has gone out | and bought herself,

a little toy to use | in the video,

Really?

Well, it's not a little toy, | It's a... it's a huge,

F***ing, I mean, it was...

No one has a... you know, OK,

Well, anyway, I took one look | at this thing,

and I knew | I would not be able to...

I mean, it... I just couldn't... | I couldn't,

I couldn't,

So we haven't,

And, you know,

you can't come back | from something like that,

I don't know whether | she lost respect for me,

or I lost respect for myself, | but something was lost,

HEATHER:
| What are you going to do?

CARL:
I have no idea.

I mean, I know professionally, | I'm gonna go back to teaching.

I always loved teaching.

- Really? | - Yeah.

CARL:
Never learned a thing in | my life, but I love teaching.

The legacy of higher education.

HEATHER:
What about your wife?

CARL:
Tsk. I...

will hope | that we get over this.

HEATHER:
Hmm,

CARL:
Aside from loving her, | I just really like her.

A lot.

But...

I guess she thinks...

everyone and everything | is against her.

Somehow I just think...

it keeps her from being happy.

Is that your wife?

- Hey! | - Hi,

HEATHER:
I'm with Dr, Green,

CARL:
| This is... Heather, this is Lee,

- Django, he was sick, | - Django ate the brownies,

- Yeah, | - He's OK,

- He's fine now, | - We put him to bed,

CARL:
Are you OK?

Um, the,

they found Gus | in his hotel room,

He's... he's dead,

He's...

HEATHER:
I should go.

CARL:
OK, OK, Thank you, | Thank you, Thank you for that,

HEATHER:
Yeah.

Hey, OK?

OK, OK,

He... he's dead,

Oh,

Oh, sweetie pie, OK,

Um,

Well,

If you ever left me, | I would die,

I would die, Please don't,

OK,

I just want this day to be over,

Mmm,

Yeah, Let it out,

OK,

- Happy birthday, | - Thanks,

CARL:
Mmm,

LEE:
Hi,

Did you have any | interesting dreams last night?

CARL:
| Um, no, Back to normal,

LEE:
Oh,

CARL:
I had an afro,

LEE:
Huh?

LEE:
I really don't know | what you should do...

when you're in love | with someone.

I know that you're thinking | about them all the time.

You want to be with them | and see things with them.

I think it's impossible. | It's an ideal to just think...

that you can actually | be kind all the time...

and never be disappointed | in them or by them.

It's hard. I mean, it's like | the dream is short-lived.

CARL:
You've got | to keep hoping that...

that there's more.

FRANCESCA:
| You know, you always...

It's when | you least expect it...

that something | kind of pops up, literally.

He just was... | appeared, kind of...

Um, so...

And nice that it's somebody...

that I knew | a really long time ago.

And, clearly, you know, | paid attention to me...

before I was, you know, blond.

So, that makes it nice...

but I think | that it's just fate...

and it's kind of, um...

I don't know. And today, just | negative ions in the air...

bringing good fortune | and... and, yeah.

Yeah.

Sam Osborne.

CAL VIN:
I think, | you know, with Lucy...

she's a good listener, | like I said...

but she's also, you know, | she's teaching me stuff.

She comes from a nice family. | Her parents are still together.

She got three-four | brothers and sisters...

and they're | a real close-knit family.

It's just the opposite | of where I had come from.

I don't know. Honestly, | I don't know what it is.

I mean, I gotta just kinda go | off my gut right now...

and just see what feels right.

And right now, | when I'm with Lucy...

man, it just feels right.

Catherine,

Nicholas,

You're here,

I am,

I wasn't sure,

Neither was I...

until now,

Mmm,

- Mmm, | - Mmm,

- Did you get that? | - The announcement? No,

- Where you going? | - Oh, Tucson,

Mmm! I'm going to Tucson,

- Oh, yeah? | - Yeah,

- You ever been? | - No,

It's supposed to be beautiful,

That's what I hear, | I've never been, either,

- I'll see you on the plane, | - All right,

- Oh, are you Russian? | - No,

No, you're supposed to say, | "Am I rushin' where?"

- That's funny, | - Thanks,

Hi, I'm sorry, | Is this seat taken?

No, no,

Ohh,

Sorry, | I hope this isn't a full flight,

- Yeah, I hope so, too, | - Sorry,

LINDA:
| You know, I was ready to go.

I was at the airport, | and I met...

like, in the food court, | I met this guy, um...

and then he sat next to me | on the plane...

and we just hit it off.

His name's Arty, and we just...

He just made me laugh. | He's really funny and sweet...

and, um, sort of open.

We just talked the whole time, | the whole flight.

ARTY:
| She laughed in a way...

that made me feel like | she saw me.

I blew off | meeting... meeting Ann...

but we ended up spending | the weekend together.

And she's terrific.

LINDA:
It was amazing. | We just had an amazing time.

It was definitely...

It was like out of a movie.

" Do something real "

" Sidewalks chasing, | citizens racing "

" Do something real "

" Bloodhounds closing in | on opposing men "
