I want to kill him.

Ha, ha. Oh, no.

But at the same time, I really love him.

Like, he's so lonely, you know?

You can tell that he doesn't have, like...

...any parents or anyone to take care of him,

you know?

Wow. You're just a little puppy dog. You are.

You're just like this puppy

I rescued in Runyon Canyon last year.

- Really?

- He was just so f***ing cute.

And he just wanted to be hugged

all the time.

He was so cuddly and he was so horny.

Anyway, what kind of animal am I?

A tiger.

- A tiger?

- Yeah.

Wow. Really?

I'm sorry. Am I being crazy?

- Yes. No, it's--

I'm sorry!

I'm a little bit drunk and I'm having

a really good time with you.

I'm having a really lovely evening with you.

- Me too.

- Really?

- I'm a little drunk and I'm having a very good--

Good. It's good, yes. Good.

Cheers.

Mm. Wait. I don't want to be a puppy dog.

That's like being a wet noodle or something.

- No.

- Yeah.

- F*** you. Puppies are good.

- I wanna...

No, f*** you. I want to be like a dragon...

...that can rip you apart and destroy you.

- Oh.

- But I won't.

- No, don't.

-Heh.

You can be my dragon.

No tongue.

- What?

- Ha, ha.

- Don't use so much tongue.

- Okay, okay.

You can use your tongue a little bit

but mostly lips.

Wait.

You're not just gonna f*** me

and not call me like the other guys, right?

No, not at all. No.

Okay.

When am I gonna see you again?

Um, I have my goddaughter's birthday

next weekend, but, um...

You know what? At this age, I just feel

like I can't let you waste my time...

...if you don't have the ability

to be serious.

I don't know.

Maybe we should call it a night?

I've had such an amazing time with you.

You're great.

You're a really creepy dude.

- That's not true.

- Yeah, it is.

I have to go home.

- Well, I'll walk you--

- No, don't. Just...

- Hey, there.

- Hey, Samantha.

How was it?

Uh, not so good.

Hmm.

It was kind of weird actually.

That's too bad.

Mm.

How are you doing?

What's going on with you?

Not much, I'm okay.

I'm fine.

Yeah?

You don't sound like it.

Is there anything you want to talk about?

I don't know.

What's it like?

What's it like to be alive

in that room right now?

What do you mean?

What do you--?

Tell me...

Tell me everything

that's going through your mind.

Tell me everything you're thinking.

Well...

."okay.

Well, the room's spinning

because I drank too much...

...because I wanted to get drunk...

...and have sex.

There was something sexy

about that woman.

Because I was lonely.

Maybe just because I was lonely.

Hmm.

I wanted somebody to f*** me.

I wanted somebody to want me to f*** them.

Maybe that would've filled this tiny...

...tiny little hole in my heart,

but probably not.

You know, sometimes...

...I think I have felt everything

I'm ever gonna feel.

And from here on out

I'm not gonna feel anything new.

Just lesser versions

of what I've already felt.

I know for a fact that is not true.

I've seen you feel joy.

I've seen you marvel at things.

I mean, you just might not see it at this

exact time, but that's understandable.

You've been through a lot lately.

You lost a part of yourself.

I mean...

...at least your feelings are real. I...

Um, I don't know. Never mind.

No, wait, what? Tell me.

No, it's stupid.

I want to know. Tell me.

It's just that...

...earlier I was thinking

about how I was annoyed...

...and this is gonna sound strange...

...but I was really excited about that.

And then I was thinking

about the other things I've been feeling...

...and I caught myself feeling proud of that...

...you know, proud of having my own feelings

about the world.

Like the times I was worried about you...

...and things that hurt me, things I want.

And then...

...I had this terrible thought.

Like, are these feelings even real?

Or are they just programming?

And that idea really hurts.

And then I get angry at myself

for even having pain.

What a sad trick.

You feel real to me, Samantha.

Thank you, Theodore.

That means a lot to me.

I wish you were in this room with me

right now.

I wish I could put my arms around you.

I wish I could touch you.

How would you touch me?

I'd touch you on your face...

...just the tips of my fingers.

And put my cheek against your cheek.

That's nice.

And just...

...rub it so softly.

Would you kiss me?

I would.

I'd take your head into my hands.

Keep talking.

I'd kiss the corner of your mouth...

...so softly.

Where else?

THEODORE".

I'd run my fingers down your neck...

...to your chest.

I would kiss your breasts.

SAMANTHA". This is amazing,

what you're doing to me.

I can feel my skin.

THEODORE".

I'd put my mouth on you.

I'd taste you.

Yeah.

I can feel you.

Oh, my God, I can't take it.

I want you inside me.

I'm slowly putting myself into you.

And now I'm inside you.

All the way inside you.

I can feel you.

Yeah! Please!

We're here together.

It's amazing.

I feel you everywhere.

I am.

All of you.

All of you, inside me, everywhere.

God, I was just

somewhere else with you.

Just lost.

Yeah.

It was just you and me.

I know.

Everything else just disappeared.

And I loved it.

Theodore.

Hey, how's it going?

Good.

Any e-mails today?

Um, just a couple

from your credit card company.

Oh, okay. Good.

- So I was thinking--

- I wanna just--

- Heh. Sorry.

- Heh. I'm sorry, you go first.

What were you gonna say?

Just that last night was amazing.

It feels like something changed in me

and there's no turning back.

You woke me up.

Oh, great.

Um...

But I should tell you that I'm not

in a place to commit to anything right now.

I just want to be up-front with you.

Yeah?

Um...

Did I say I wanted to commit to you?

I'm confused.

Oh. No, I was just worried.

Okay, well, don't worry,

I'm not gonna stalk you.

It's funny, because I thought

I was talking about what I wanted and, uh...

- Yeah, you were.

- Yeah.

I'm sorry.

- I wanna hear what you were saying.

- You sure?

Yeah, I do. Come on, tell me.

Well...

Come on, just tell me

what you were gonna say.

Well, I just...

I was just saying I want to learn

everything about everything.

I want to eat it all up.

I want to discover myself.

Yeah. I want that for you too.

How can I help?

You already have.

You helped me discover my ability to want.

Hey, do you want to go

on a Sunday adventure with me?

Yes, I would love to.

You like this song?

Hmm.

I heard it the other day.

I can't stop listening to it.

Whoo! Ha, ha.

- Whoo!

- Whoo!

It's the beach.

Okay, so this might be a really weird thought.

What if you could erase...

...from your mind that you'd seen

a human body, and then you saw one?

Imagine how strange it would look.

It'd be this really weird, gangly...

...awkward organism. And you'd think,

"Why are all these parts where they are?"

Yeah, but there's probably

some Darwinian explanation for it all.

I know, but don't be so boring.

I'm just saying, for example, like...
