or illegal impulse
and dwell on it.
and from that seed
grows fantasy.

have healthy fantasies."
Meaning that they can
readily differentiate
between the real
and the unreal.

Operators are standing by.
Hello?
[bell rings]
Hi, uh...can I help
you find something?
You guys are 0 for 3
on my girlfriend's list.
Um, yeah, sometimes our
videos are just a little bit
hard to find here 'cause
our classification system
is a little bit weird.
Along Came Polly,
The Breakup, Hitch.
Where would you look
for those movies?
Comedy.
[bell rings]
Genius.
I, I can type them into
the computer, and then,
'cause like sometimes
people misfile the boxes,
and then they
get kind of lost.
Yes, honey...
I'm still at the store.
Yeah, well, I'm moving
as fast as I can.
No.
Well, well sometimes it
takes a f***ing village
to find a video.
What can I say?
B*tch.
What I'm doing is
I'm typing in your titles,
and then if they're in the back
I'll be able to bring them...
Whatever, just work your magic.
My computer's frozen.
No sh*t.
It'll take, like, 30 seconds.
[phone rings]
God damn it, Jenny.
What?
Yeah.
No.
I told you they
don't have that.
The f***ing 'tard
they got working here
can't do sh*t.
Yeah.
Fine.
It'll take, like, five seconds.
I'm just gonna look
for something else.
Hey.
Oh, hey.
You're lookin' for a--
are you lookin' for
another slasher film?
No, actually I was
wondering if you had,
"Along Came Polly"?
I, I don't--
I don't think we have
it in the system.
The computer's
all jammed, but--
Dude, I'm f***ing with you.
I overheard that little
sh*t asking for it.
What a f***ing dick.
I used to hate guys like that
when I worked in retail.
Yeah, right.
How about I get
the movies you want,
and I'll go to sleep?
What would
you do to him...
if you could do anything
you wanted to?
Anything and not get caught?
Anything?
I can see those
gears turning.
If you could do
anything you wanted...
Think about it.
I can't even say.
Yeah, you can.
(customer on phone)
Every time we do this.
No, we're not
getting licorice.
F***in' black licorice.
I hate that sh*t anyway.
Nobody's gonna
hear you except me.
And I'm your ally.
If I could do anything
in the world to that guy...
I'd, uh...
I'd go to a hardware
store and, uh...
I'd get a sledgehammer.
Really?
And then smash his head
with the sledgehammer.
Really?
That's creative.
It's a little messy,
but it's creative.
I'm just jokin', you know?
Jokin' around.
I'd, um, I'd just, like,
get a gun and shoot him
in the neck.
Right in the neck.
Is that real?
Yeah, it's f***in' real.
You can't kill someone
with a fake gun.
Unless you bash them
in the head with it.
You mean...
you've iced a guy?
[whispers]
I've always wanted
to kill someone.
And you can.
What do you mean?
If you want to learn,
I can teach you to kill
as many people as you want.
I don't know.
No, I think you do know.
I come in here all the time,
and every time I see you...
I see a guy that's not
happy with his life.
- You can tell that?
- Uh huh.
And I see that there's
that's just waitin'...
to break out.
You know exactly what I'm
talking about, don't you?
(customer)
What the f***, honey?
No, I'm not
doing this with you.
See, life comes down to a few
short moments when you have
to ask yourself...
am I living up
to my potential?
Am I in it...
to win it?
Sh*t for selection.
What's it gonna be?
Are you in it to win it?
I am in it to win it.
You got a lot to
learn before you can
put your hands on a weapon.
So what do you say?
You wanna go
get this a**hole?
Yeah.
[bell rings]
Let's take the back...
before he gets away.
Hey, dip sh*t.
Hey, you know what's
f***in' hilarious?
Is that you chose to act
like a f***in' a**hole
on your last day on earth.
[gunshot]
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
You all right?
You still with me?
Guys like this, they take
their lives for granted.
And the thing is,
is that we're all
just so f***in' fragile.
I'm a reminder to these people
that they need to appreciate
their life each and every day.
So you're kind of,
you're kind of doing,
doing people a favor.
Looks like we got a live one.
[gunshot]
What do you do
with the body?
Depends.
Is shithead here
a regular customer?
