A picture of his family and nuts.

Mm-hmm.

Speaking of hydration,

that's the ticket.

Coconut water. That's right.

It hydrates you 75 times

faster than normal water.

Really? Mm-hmm.

It says right there.

What does that even mean?

It means if you drink that,

it's like drinking

eight bottles of water.

Just in this? Yeah.

Why is it called Coconut?

It's from a coconut.

Good luck, man. Thanks.

Say hi to your dad.

I know, right?

Maybe you can play some

milky-milky cakey-cake.

That sh*t's so weird.

I know. I can't believe it.

Okay, listen.

Just follow my lead.

The most important thing

is to have a calm demeanor.

You wanna establish

some trust with the, uh...

with the, uh, witness here.

Hey, just don't f*** this up,

all right?

Okay.

You don't have to

knock that hard.

Hi. My name's Peter Fogerty.

I'm with

the sheriff's department.

This is my partner

Deputy Malone.

We're here investigating

a missing person's report.

We've traced some license

plates to this residence.

It's the LKA

of a Glen Fitzgerald.

Oh, yeah. I know Glen.

What's LKA?

Last known address.

How do you know Glen?

Glen's my boyfriend. Terrific.

All right. We're on our way.

Where is Glen now?

Oh, I couldn't tell you that.

I have no idea.

Really? Well, it's very important

that we find him, because...

Look, really, you don't know

where your boyfriend is?

Really?

That's what we're figuring out now.

Come on.

Are there places of business

that he frequents often

that maybe we might

be able to find him?

No. Maybe he's shopping...

I find that very suspicious that you

wouldn't know where your boyfriend goes.

I'm wondering if we can just step inside

real quick and take a look around.

No. I'm sorry.

I have to go to work.

Well, there may be an I PP

going on as we speak.

What's an... It doesn't

matter what it means.

No. I'm sorry. If you give me a

business card, I can call you.

Sure. I'd be happy for you to

take a look at my business card.

Hold on a second. If we have to come

back, we're coming back with a warrant.

And we'll see everything!

Including the drugs and the pornography!

Hey, calm down.

Did you notice there was

a gun in there? Yeah.

I'm pretty sure John Wayne Gacy

had a gun.

He's gone, and he's out

of our lives, right?

And that's for the best,

trust me.

I feel like I disappointed you.

You disappointed us?

Of course not.

Fitz?

You don't have anything

to say to him.

Hang up. Who cares where he is.

Tell him you're done, good-bye.

Hang up the phone.

Just give him the phone.

Give me the phone.

I'd like to have a word with him.

Tell him that

he's a piece of sh*t!

Why should I call you?

You're the one that left.

Well, I'm kind of busy

running from the cops.

I'm on the lam.

You're on the lam?

What does that mean,

you're on the lam?

It means I'm running

from the cops.

Jimmy's dad and some f***ing maniac

named Fogerty came over today.

They say you're a pervert.

I'm not a pervert.

He's the pervert.

What's going on?

I'm alone here.

Where are you?

I'm, like, halfway to Oakland.

Come home! I don't understand.

You tell him he's human garbage.

He belongs in a garbage pail.

And he can take that to the bank.

He doesn't do a goddamn thing.

Stop!

Get the f*** in the house!

All right.

Fitz, I don't know

what's going on.

I'm really freaked out.

I don't know where you are.

I f***ing made out with Barry.

You made out with Barry?

Yeah. I mean, yeah.

I'm gone for six hours, and you

make out with your f***ing boss?

F***.

It's a nightclub.

What happened?

My girlfriend made out

with some dick named Barry,

who just so happens to be her

f***ing boss and really rich!

So the next hour, we just

sit here and not talk!

They're probably

gonna catch us if we don't...

Good note.

That sucks

about your girlfriend.

Yeah, it sucks. Life sucks.

Bingo bango!

We got a text from Rico.

Interesting.

Looks like our plates

popped up in Bakersfield.

All right! All right.

Let's hit the highway.

Let's get there quick.

Bakersfield just got...

It was in the headlines.

They just had a porn sting

in Bakersfield.

Everything you say upsets me.

You guys... You have good

health insurance, right?

Why would you ask that?

I know the circumstances

could be better,

but it's kind of great

that we can spend

some time together finally,

you know?

Are you f***ing kidding me?

No, I'm not. How many times

do we say we wanna go out

and take a road trip or go out

and just get to know each other?

It's been a while.

You think maybe we can hit the

PCH highway on the way back?

Beautiful drive.

Don't worry about

the PCH f***ing highway.

Worry about Jimmy!

I'm getting

better at this now.

Maybe I can play something

besides just quarter notes.

I mean, if you wanna

try something new,

we could, you know, work on it.

Do you think we should

send Tommy something?

Like a basket?

Yeah, that's a good idea.

Maybe just get him...

Whoa. Out of the car.

Piece of sh*t!

No! I don't know you!

Get outta the car!

What the f***?

You f***... Get out of there.

Come here. Jesus Christ!

Is that him?

No, that's not him.

Jesus. Peter Fogerty,

sheriff's department.

This is my partner Deputy Malone.

You guys are cops?

That's right. We're cops.

I didn't do sh*t!

We wanna know

if you know a Glen Fitzgerald?

Hands! Hands!

Up! What?

Hey, she's cool.

I'll put them 10:00 and 2:00.

The clock.

Like the clock. Good.

- Do you know a Glen Fitzgerald?

- Glen Fitzgerald...

You know,

it's not a brainteaser.

Yes-or-no question.

Do you know the man or not?

Yes, I know him. Yes.

All right.

Now, where is Glen Fitzgerald?

I don't know.

I haven't seen him. Come on.

You're in his car, the same one he

was in this morning, you a**hole.

Now, where is he?

Yeah. I don't know, man.

He's got my kid, you douche bag!

Speak words.

Hey! Oh, my God!

Kicking my...

We switched cars with him!

He's going to Oakland to see

Arnie Fitzgerald, his father.

Are you okay?

Why are you telling them that?

Because he kicked you in the stomach!

He didn't kick me.

He kicked the shitty car.

He can't do anything.

He's in sweatpants.

He is in sweatpants. Ma'am...

What? You shut up, and

you please keep talking.

And what kind of car

was he driving?

Um... Talk!

A yellow car.

That was a Duster.

A yellow Duster.

A yellow Duster. Good. Great.

Now we're getting somewhere.

And the plates?

Samantha.

He has a plate named Samantha?

Without the vowels.

Smnth? Okay.

Smnth, yellow Duster,

all right?

Hold on. Wait.

What the f*** is with the outfits?

Is this some sort of cult? No.

We're in a White Stripes

cover band.

Yeah. Oh, yeah. The White Stripes.

Sure. The rock duo.

They're brother and sister that

were possibly f***ing each other.

Some people think they were

husband-wife, husband-ex-wife.

But there was definitely

some kinky sh*t going on.

Yeah, they're not...

I think it's rock mystique.
