Makes sense.

So, how've you been?

Yeah.

That look good to you?

Yeah.

Hey, I heard through the grapevine

that, um, you used to work for Miller?

Okay.

Well, is that true?

No.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Well, um, I just wanted to tell you...

that my internship is gonna

be over in two weeks and...

I'll find another intern.

Where are you gonna find another intern?

Money... people like money.

Alrighty then, worked on me.

Oh yeah, I actually won't

be able to do Thursday.

So, maybe we can connect

tomorrow? You know, same time?

- Okay.

- Thanks.

You know, discreet's the way to go.

The whole reason why I can't do Friday...

is my sister has this big orientation

thing and you know, I gotta be...

Tomorrow!

Uh... uh...

Hey.

Hi.

How was your meeting with Jeremy?

Fine.

Wow... great.

Oh, okay... okay.

So...

you and Jeremy meet often?

Sometimes.

Oh, yeah, well, we're looking for him...

so maybe you should join us for a ride.

I'm okay.

Oh, yeah, you know what?

That's not really an option.

- Don't.

- What?

Oh...

You want trouble you got it

Aw, my balls!

Huh.

Agh...

Hey, Jack.

Oh, my god, what happened to your hand?

And your eyes?

Um...

pepper spray.

Somebody maced you?

Yeah, mace.

Why?

It was an accident.

My landlord thought I was

robbing my own apartment.

Really? Isn't your

landlord, like, 90 years old?

Yeah, but she's spry.

And then, uh, I fell on a glass.

Hm, can I get you some ice for that?

No, I'm fine.

Um, do you know what you want to order?

Oatmeal.

- That's it?

- Yeah.

Do you have anything on the

agenda for later tonight?

Nothing... sleeping, so, no.

Um, something to drink?

Hot tea.

Right... okay.

Hello.

Jack? Is that you?

Gillian?

Why are you calling me, Gillian?

I remember hating you.

Shut the f***

up! I need you to go pick up Andrea...

before she gets into a car and...

Who's Andrea?

My kid... she

came by your place earlier today.

I'm hanging up.

No, no, no,

she just called from a pay phone...

and she said she's coming home soon.

I don't want to her driving drunk.

You're the only guy around there I know.

Gillian, I don't know

what you're talking about.

Andrea.

Repeating the name doesn't help.

Andrea, you dumb

f***, she said she saw you this afternoon.

Hello? Hello?

She was here.

I know. But she's out

drinking now, because you said or did...

something that sent her

up the f***ing wall.

I opened the door and

she ran off. That's it.

You f***ed it up, Jack.

I don't even know what I did.

She

just wanted to meet you.

Why?

Take a guess.

I hate you.

F*** you, Jack.

Abortions cost about

$300. You could afford one.

Just pick her up, please.

Where is she again?

Do you

remember that bar, Crackles?

What do I do with her?

Just don't

let her drive home drunk as sh*t.

She's got a habit of doing that. She's

had her license suspended, she's...

Andrea's the name?

Yes,

Jack, Andrea... Jesus Christ.

All right... never call me again.

Hi, there.

Have you seen a young lady

with a lip ring in here today?

What does she look like?

A young lady with a lip ring.

You her dad?

She was here?

Yeah... you her dad?

Do you know where she is?

Are you her dad?

- Yeah.

- Excuse me?

Yes, I'm her father.

- She left with Tim.

- Who's Tim?

Hey!

Who's Tim?

He's a mailman.

Where is he now?

No idea.

Where does he live?

No... no idea.

What's his last name?

- Dell.

- Dell?

Dell.

You're about 35.

What do you want?

Is Andrea there?

Ugh, f*** off!

Hold on.

Hi!

- Your mother called.

- Oh.

You're intimidating.

Okay.

Nervous, it's a big thing for me. I

have this thing with alcohol, actually.

I feel bad, because you

probably were just worried...

Please stop. So you're fine?

- Yeah.

- Then I'm leaving.

Don't die before you get to your mother's.

So, that's it?

Sure... I'm done.

Well, I feel like we should

just... you know, um...

What?

Talk.

What do you want to do?

I could eat.

Oh, um... do you mind if I stay over?

So, what happened to your hand anyway?

Uh...

Someone shot me earlier today.

Seriously? Someone shot you? With a gun?

That's how you get shot.

Why?

I actually don't know.

Hey, I keep coming back here to.

Somebody' here with you. Hi, there.

Hello.

I just never seen you here

with anyone else, so...

I'm Andrea.

Cara.

I think I want the eggplant parmesan.

- Does he come here a lot?

- Oh, yeah, about everyday.

Wow... I guess that's...

Just visiting Dad.

Your dad?

Okay, so, you never mentioned a daughter.

Um, yeah, I don't know why.

Um, do you know what you want to order?

I want the eggplant parmesan.

I will have, chicken Caesar salad.

All right, I will be right back.

I, uh, don't have money, so...

Then how did you end up inebriated?

Vaginas are like coupon books for alcohol.

So, eggplant? Not chicken or veal?

I don't eat meat.

Really? You look like the kind of guy

who'd eat meat every chance you'd get.

If it had blood, I don't eat it.

So, you're a vegetarian?

I guess.

Why? Bacon exists.

No reason.

That's noble.

So, are you married now

or a like, girlfriend?

We were talking about bacon.

No significant other?

We just met a few hours

ago, knock it down a peg.

- Sorry.

- It's a little intense.

Sorry, I was just curious.

Are you still staying over tonight?

Uh, is that all right with you if I did?

How long?

Two days?

Ah, hot tea.

Okay, hot tea.

Oh, god. What? What, is everything okay?

It's nothing. Go back to sleep.

Yeah, okay, I just forgot

where I was for a minute.

What was that?

Nothing, go back to sleep.

Yeah, he picked me up last night.

No, he found me at the diner.

Yeah, yeah, well, I was

planning on finding a motel...

and then just coming home in the morning.

No. Yeah, I'm fine.

He's fine, so far.

What time is it?

Hold on. I don't know,

I don't wear a watch.

Who's on the phone?

Mom, eh, Gillian.

Sorry, anyway, I'm with

him now and we're fine...

Good afternoon.

Afternoon.

Where'd you end up going this morning?

I took a walk.

What, to clear your head?

Must be something finding out I exist.

I'm late. I'll be back in a minute.

Bye.

Let's go.

Talk to me.
