we'll know something.

Come on, you gotta help me here.

I'm under a lot of pressure.

I can't give you any answers.

I was thinking a lot

about you lately.

It's terrible, terrible,

isn't it?

Mike Mansfield,

starting up the new Largo Agency.

What do you think

you're gonna do now?

What do you mean?

Well, you're a special girl...

with special problems.

I think you need special attention.

You could go to Ford.

There's always that a**hole

over at Elite.

But I think you should put

some serious thought in coming with me.

Why? Why would I leave Wili?

You have to start thinking

about yourself. You have to be tough.

This is a business,

and in this business...

you can't be represented

by a dead woman.

Excuse me.

Why don't you give me a call?

Yes, darling, I know

it's so inconvenient.

Get me a copy of the call sheet,

and tell Freddie I need to speak to him.

- Done. I'll take care of it.

- Gia, darling, kiss me.

Yes, I have to go too.

Have a wonderful trip.

Tell Christian to behave himself.

Ciao, darling.

- I'm exhausted.

- Me too.

Come here, come here, come here.

I thought you were sick.

I am sick, darling,

sick and tired...

but it's not serious.

- I'm tired too.

- You?

Yeah.

I think I wanna stop for a while.

You know,

I need some time to think.

Yes, but not now, darling.

Plenty of time to rest

when you're in the ground.

You have...

the whole world...

at your fingertips.

You have to be strong.

Seize the moment.

Because if you don't...

there's always another girl

waiting right behind you...

breathing over your shoulder.

Come on.

I know. I know it's hard.

We can do it.

You and I together.

She really looked dead, didn't she?

The great thing about the afterlife

is nobody cares how you look.

Like an average girl.

Too rich and too thin.

- I had no idea she was that sick.

- You can never tell with Germans.

God!

Great. That's beautiful.

Really nice. Cool.

Can you roll your eyes back a little

so we can see the white under them?

- We're going for the seppuku look.

- What is that?

Japanese. Sorry, it means

that you're half dead.

- I'm there.

- I know, it's great.

You are doing so good.

Really, you look super.

Oh, my God.

Did you almost just throw up?

I'm really sick.

- Can you go make a run downtown for me?

- Don't throw up on this dress.

Just- I'm sick.

Go downtown.

All right? There's a taco place,

and you ask for Satellite or Rich Boy.

Okay? Yeah?

- Chasing the dragon, are you?

- I'm sorry.

Oh, no, it works, it works.

A little death around the eyes.

Okay, great. Fabulous.

Great. Good.

That's really great.

Oh, that's great.

Fantastic. Right by the bike.

Good. Bad girl, bad girl.

Good.

Yeah, that's it. Great.

Good. Fantastic.

- She's out of her f***ing mind?

- Could Cheryl Tiegs do this?

I don't think so.

Go.

Hey, wait!

Hey, where you going?

Hey, where's Satellite?

Is he here?

Come here.

F***.

Hey, you b*tch.

Where's Satellite?

Where is Satellite?

I am sick, f***ing junkies.

I'm sick! Where is he?

He's making a delivery.

- Is anybody holding anything? Please!

- I'll give you my shot.

I don't shoot. Do you have

anything else dry?

No, man.

All I got is in here.

I can't.

- Okay, if you don't want it.

- Wait.

I want it. You do me.

Will you do it?

Yeah, I'll do you.

This is gonna hurt.

No pain.

Thank you.

Don't be scared, baby.

I'll take you home.

Oh, God.

Oh, my God.

I was thinking about you.

Are you okay?

Is your boyfriend here?

I don't have a boyfriend anymore.

I'm all dirty.

I was afraid of the drugs.

The way people use them.

I told her that.

I mean, she knew that.

I was afraid of a lot of things.

But she promised...

and I believed her.

And I believed

we could make things work.

I believed because we both

wanted it so much that we could.

We could-

And we did.

We did make it work.

You're coming home?

Just out of the blue

you're coming home?

Just like that you call me?

You are a piece of work,

you are.

Philadelphia?

The b*tch is in Philadelphia?

I'm killing myself

trying to keep this agency alive...

which is not easy...

since my wife with her dying breath

screwed me out of 50% of the company.

F***ing women.

And now you tell me

this little...

whatever just disappears.

I hope she f***ing dies

in Philadelphia.

It's a 21-day program.

It's your responsibility to come in

every day and take the Methodone.

All right.

Drink the water.

That's all right.

I need you to drink the water.

And sign next to the line.

Okay.

Dwayne King.

There you are, Mr. Doodiekins.

Fresh from the oven.

Thank you, Mrs. Doodiekins.

I could do this,

you know that?

I could be a f***ing housewife.

I'd be very happy.

It's very depressing,

this apartment.

All right, all right.

"Shut up, Mom. "

So, is Linda coming back tonight...

or is she staying in New York?

I don't know.

If she works late, she's gonna stay.

I hate what this Methodone

is doing to your shoulders.

They used to stand up so straight,

so beautiful.

Come on.

Well, you have to watch

your weight too.

You want to look good

for when you go back to work.

- I'm not going back to work.

- Okay.

- I can't.

- All right.

Do you understand that?

That's up to you, you know.

But just wait. You'll see.

Hi, this is Linda.

I'm not here. Leave a message.

Hi, Doo-doo. It's me.

I've been calling all night.

Where are you?

- Linda?

- Hello?

- Who's this?

- This is Billy. Who's this?

Damn it!

Goddamn it, Gia!

Oh, my God,

she broke into my house.

She stole some money.

She stole jewelry.

She bought the drugs...

and then she took off in the car

like a crazy person.

It was unbelievable.

She took my wedding ring!

- Stop the vehicle and pull over.

- And the lies.

You know that old joke, how you

can tell when a junkie is lying?

Her lips are moving.

It's not funny.

Get out of the car.

- Why are you chasing me? Are you crazy?

- Lady-

I'm trying to get to New York,

and you're f***ing chasing me?

- All right, ma'am. Calm down.

- What is wrong with you?

- God! What?

- Ma'am?

What the- Just back off, okay?

God!

- Ma'am?

- I have to go.

Get f***ing arrested for nothing,

that's why.

These are serious charges.

Reckless driving.

- This is resisting arrest.

- Goddamn it! It's not my fault!

It was not my fault either!

He was there getting some stuff

out of my apartment!

I wasn't even there!

I was on my way back here!

Thank God, because otherwise,

you'd still be in jail.

I have to go back to work.

I know what you're gonna say,

but I need the money.

Stop it!

I need the money so I can be with you,

because I cannot live like this.

Okay? I can't live like this.

And I can't live without you.

You want to come to Largo now.

Is that because everyone else

is afraid of signing you?

No, I haven't asked anyone else.

Then why me?

Because you're a greedy f***...

and you'll get me more money

than anyone else.

That's the truth.
