Hello, My Name Is Frank Page #5

Did you hear a dog?

No.

There are no pets

allowed in this place.

Ma'am, how much

can I give you for that

key chain over there?

What?

All right, who's sleeping where?

I'm not sleeping

with any of you guys.

I've got the cot.

Well, that settles that.

I'm gonna take a shower first,

if that's okay?

I feel dirty.

Well, that's a first.

- Ha, ha, ha-ha.

- ( Giggles )

Mm, hey frank, chew on this.

Ah.

Thanks.

- ( Grunts )

- Well.

You guys sleep tight.

I'm gonna go to that party.

What?

You can't go out there alone.

- You don't know those people.

- You're not my mother.

- I do what I want.

- I'm not your mother.

But I'm your friend,

and I think you should stay in.

- That's how women go missing.

- Kim, it's just a party.

No one's getting murdered.

You keep thinking like that,

you'll always be afraid to live.

( Clears throat )

We've... we've all had

a really long day,

and tomorrow's another one.

May... maybe you should,

uh...

You know, stay here

and get a good night's sleep.

Yeah, I'm gonna go to the party

and find a hot guy

to hang with tonight.

- Alisa.

- Later.

Does she always try to go

find a hot guy

- to hang out with?

- Yeah,

that's the understatement

of the year.

She's not big on commitment.

Alisa should be committed

to an insane asylum.

We can watch her from here.

Kim:
Yeah, as long as

she stays outside.

( Music playing )

( Mixed chatter )

Do you want me to take over?

No, I'm good.

Why don't you get some sleep?

In a little bit.

I'm not afraid to live,

you know?

I know.

I just want to be

smart about it.

Not take every risk I can find

like Alisa.

I swear that girl's

got a death wish.

Maybe.

( Music playing,

mixed background chatter )

Why does she hate me so much?

She doesn't hate you.

You guys are just...

Different.

No.

She hates me.

Stacy couldn't stand me,

but at least she didn't hate me.

No one hates you, Kim.

They wouldn't

have been your friends

if they hated you.

They wouldn't have been my

friends if it weren't for you.

You're the only reason

they let me hang out with them.

You know that's not true.

I wish I could be more like you.

Everybody loves you.

You're the nicest person I know.

You sat next to me

on my first day of class.

You always help Alisa out

of her jams.

You visited Stacy every day

at the hospital.

You took care of your mom

when she was sick,

and now you're taking care

of frank.

Come on!

Hurry up!

- Hurry up!

- Go, go, go, go!

- Oh, my god...

- Oh, there it is!

( All yelling )

Oh, my god! Go!

You're all gone!

( All cheering )

She went inside.

I can't see her anymore.

Okay, I'm gonna text her.

Tell her to text us

every five minutes

so we know she's okay.

- ( Phone buzzes )

- ( Gasps )

Oh, good.

She texted back.

Just one letter though.

"F."

- ( Phone buzzes ) - Oh, my god.

- Here's another one.

"U." Oh, my god.

Do you think she's in trouble?

Is she sending us

a secret message

one letter at a time?

Yeah, she's sending us

a secret message all right.

What? F...

( Phone clicks )

It's late.

I'm going to bed.

You should, too.

- What about Alisa?

- She'll be fine.

She always is.

Come on, I want to talk to you.

( Alisa grunts )

What, you're not much

of a talker?

Ow! Can you slow down?

No.

Ow! Get off of me!

Somebody help! Stop!

Get off of me!

- She said "stop!"

- ( Grunts )

Now get out

before I call the cops!

You okay?

Hey.

( Laughs )

- I know you.

- Yeah.

( Kids playing )

Frank:

God damn f***ing a**holes!

( Muffled yelling )

( Music playing )

Hey, how 'bout we slow down?

- Huh? Yeah?

- All right.

My eyes are blue...

shame on you, b*tch.

Shame on you, b*tch.

Oh, my god.

Frank, what're you doing?

Is he a friend of yours?

Yeah.

Wake up, wake up

say hello to what we have

I know I'm braver

than you

I know you're shy

but don't let that

be why I can't be with you

raise your stakes

'cause I will always

drop by first

so if the falling hurts

you'll be

my favorite scar...

( frank snoring )

Wake up.

Alisa's not here.

I didn't eat the cookie.

- What?

- Hey, Alisa's not here.

Oh, my god!

Someone killed her.

She could be

lying in a ditch somewhere.

I told her not to go.

- I told her, didn't I?

- Ow.

Who... who... who is dead?

Alisa!

Oh, check the car.

( Clears throat )

( Snoring continues )

Is she alive?

Oh, she's more than alive

all right.

I had to fight her off

the whole night.

Latte for Kim.

Espresso for Laura.

Hey, is frank up?

You actually

talked to Alisa last night?

Yeah, is that unusual?

Like a conversation?

About us?

Yeah, we talked all night.

We watched the sun come up.

You are the cute hitchhiker?

Well, I do prefer

to be called by my name.

Vinnie.

You must be frank.

It's herbal tea.

Alisa told me you had

the tourettes.

That means no caffeine, right?

She wasn't sure what you drank

in the morning,

so I figured

that was the best bet.

( Moans )

What're you staring at?

( Sighs )

Sh*t.

Good morning, Princess.

( Sighs )

So, what's your boyfriend's

name again?

Vinnie.

And he's not my boyfriend.

Then why are you staring at them

like a jealous girlfriend?

I don't give a sh*t

what they do together.

Can we just leave already?

Mm-hmm.

- Hey.

- Would you believe it,

Vinnie's heading

to the same place we are.

Oh.

Oh, well, not the cemetery.

I'm hitching to my aunt's farm.

It's only about, what,

like, 20 miles away

from where you guys are headed.

And it's a big house.

You guys can all stay there,

and it's miles from anywhere.

Frank can swear

as loud as he likes,

and he won't even

get kicked out.

He's going our way.

He needs a ride.

So...

- Yeah, I don't see why not.

- Ooh! Yay, you can come.

( Giggles )

Well, there's not gonna be

enough room in the car.

You know frank and his ticks.

Oh, I... I don't mind

getting hit in the face.

I mean, that's what

seven years of bad luck

- does to a guy.

- ( Giggles )

It's fine, right?

Um...

Oh, look, you know,

I get it, guys.

I don't want to cause

any troubles, so...

Ah, wait, Vinnie,

just hang on a minute.

- Kim:
What?

- I don't want him in the car.

Why not?

He's cute and he's nice.

Total boyfriend material.

He's a guy I hooked up with

last night.

That's it.

And we can stay

with his aunt for free.

I'm sorry. No.

I'm not spending hours

trapped in a car

with some random guy

I hooked up with.

It's not happening.

Hey, Vinnie.

( Clicks tongue )

Let's go.

( Music playing )

( Horn honks )

- ( Shuts music off )

- We're gonna play a game.

Well, no,

it's not really a game.

We're gonna go around and say

what's on our bucket list.

Won't that be fun?

Really?

A bucket list?

- Can it be anymore lame?

- I'll go first.

I want to teach

in my church's school,

volunteer in Africa for a year

and start an orphanage.

I want you to shut up

for five minutes.

Come on, this is important.

We could all die today

and have all these regrets.
