MURlEL:
Why do

Come on you and spread it?

They don't all like it.

(LAUGHS) They do.

No, they don't.

You just like guys

(LAUGHS) F*** you !

You're really good with him.

You have dogs?

No, Florence showed me

Did you start an affair

No.

You should come to

Australia with us.

Yeah?

There's a great Kinks song

called Australia.

Totally.

You should totally come.

Maybe l will.

Okay.

But you better hurry.

We gotta leave in,

like, five minutes.

SARA:
F***!

What are we gonna

do about Mahler?

Oh, f***.

Can l ask you guys a favor?

Yeah. What's happening?

How you doing?

Marlon and Peggy.

Sorry it's such a mess.

Yeah,

we're gonna go home.

Can you take Mahler

until Wednesday?

Uh. . .

Yeah, sure.

We love Mahler.

Come here, baby.

ROGER:
Great.

No, wait a second.

You know,

run it by his nose.

Okay.

No sweat.

Thanks, man.

And he takes prednisone,

which is a steroid,

twice a day for

the next three days.

l'll write this out.

Also,

there's an antibiotic

and a blood thinner,

but l'll write

it down for you.

Let's go! We still

have to get you a ticket.

ROGER:
What time is it?

Come on !

lt's f***ing peaceful,

is what it is.

SARA:
l love it.

Did you see sharks last time?

Oh, f***!

SARA:
Okay.

You know what

really pisses me off,

is f***ing Lily.

Once again.

l still can't get over that.

What a slut.

Like, l'm thinking

about it now,

and it's so much worse

than l remembered.

Now that l feel like,

maybe l was drunk

at the time.

l've seen a great white,

and there are

the most amazing wrecks.

l literally cannot wait.

l love that

you're doing this.

ls this completely crazy?

SARA:
No!

l mean, it's what

people do, right?

You'll love Australia.

For some people,

this is nothing.

MURlEL:
And who knows

how much longer the Reef's

gonna be around?

There's this starfish

that's killing

the marine life.

Roger, are you certified?

To what?

Dive.

No, l don't really swim.

(BOTH LAUGHlNG)

(COUGHlNG)

MURlEL:
You can go look at

whales while we dive.

Sunny will look at whales.

Okay, you know what?

You can cut out

the Sunny business.

(MURlEL COUGHlNG)

SARA:
Oh, my God,

look at this guy in these

overalls and the clogs.

l left my ChapStick.

Oh, my God.

Are overalls back in now,

or is he crazy?

No, l saw a bunch of

people in overalls. . .

MURlEL:
Hey,

will you check this out?

SARA:
What the f***

is that?

That is so weird.

l know, right? lt's so itchy.

Don't touch it.

Don't touch it.

You know what?

l'm supposed to get

someone from the hospital.

No, no, no.

Hold it. Hey! Hey, hold it!

Can you open my door?

No, you're our prisoner.

Exactly.

Come on, open

the f***ing door, please.

Okay, fine.

Come on.

Roger, it's a rental.

Open it.

Would you stop?

Sara, open the f***ing door!

l'm trying.

Stop pulling on it!

You know, l can't go,

l can't afford it

(STAMMERlNG) and l have to

pick up my friend.

Have a good time,

all right?

MURlEL:
Bye!

l've got to get insurance.

The anesthesia's

so expensive.

l'm such a baby

about pain.

And l stayed overnight.

l'm glad your brother's

coming back next week.

l need to work more hours.

Thanks.

l really picked

my lip in my sleep,

which was possibly

about finding a pet

in the Canyons.

Do you, uh,

get The New York Times?

No.

lt's good to get the paper.

l'll pick you up one.

Okay.

Did you get my message?

l haven't checked yet.

What did you say?

Um. . .

l reassessed

the movie Wall Street,

among other things.

l don't know it.

l wasn't gonna give it to you

'cause l was pissed,

but you can open it.

Happy birthday, again.

Thanks.

Now you have the set.

Not that they're a set.

What about your niece?

Remember,

the sticks are too old.

She's coming

over this weekend.

l framed her picture.

Do you have

a tape-measure?

l think there's a ruler

in the desk drawer.

Do you have a hammer?

Maybe in there.

Here?

You want it on

this wall, here?

Okay.

Cool.

Like a professional.

Well, l am a professional.

l mean, l build things.

l know you know

l was in a hospital.

l'm not hiding it.

But it's not what

defines me, you know?

l understand.

(HAMMERlNG)

l want to

listen to my message.

l'd had some to drink.

Gina.

My mom.

Okay. This is you.
