I Heart Huckabees Page #10

---

Yes. And then back

to the drama, the suffering.

- It's kind of a crappy deal.

- C'est exactement a.

An absurd theatrical

we must play out, back and forth...

from pure being

to human suffering.

But isn't the drama and suffering less

if we do the ball thing every day?

Don't call it ''the ball thing.''

Call it ''pure being.''

Doesn't the pure being, ball thing

make the day-to-day suffering easier?

- Yeah.

- No, it doesn't.

You're wrong. We're gonna

do this every day.

- We'll show you. It'll make it easier.

- I'll prove it to you.

Human drama

is inevitable.

Suffering cannot be diminished.

You cannot escape, Tommy.

You'll see.

Existence is a cruel joke...

that entices in a form

of desire.

- Absurd theater of desire.

- I know, buddy, it hurts. It's painful.

- Wait here.

- Where you goin'?

To meditate

on desire and suffering.

- Can I come?

- No.

Okay.

I'll see you in a little bit.

We'll do more, um, pure being? Pain--

I hope so.

Don't f***ing leave me.

[ Moaning ]

[ Gasps ]

[ Moaning ]

[ Brad ]

You look ugly.! No, no, no.

- Hold up.

- No. No.

- No, go back inside.

- Can I have my car keys?

You can't keep coming to work

if you dress like that.

Me and Daryl made some spots

Marty's gonna love.

These are the best tops around.

Last time, last year,

not so good.

But now, this is the truth.

Marty's gonna hate them, Dawn.

- He's gonna hate them.

- There's glass between us.

You can't deal with

my infinite nature, can you?

That is so not true.

Wait, what does that even mean?

We've talked about your intimacy problem.

What's the core of it?

Intimacy is combo

of infinites.

I'm definitely gonna have an intimacy problem

with you if you keep dressing like that.

- Well, it's only been a week.

- One day is too much.

The people at the office

are freaking out.

You could get free, Brad, but you think

you have to be Superman in control.

And that means you are the source

instead of part of the infnite.

- And that makes it too hard for us, baby.

- Stop talking to me like that.

- You hired the detectives.

- You don't have to listen to every word they say.

- How am I supposed to know

which parts to listen to?

- I'll tell you.

- No, that's confusing.

- [ Engine Starting ]

- Take that off. Take it off.

- No. Can I have my car keys, please?

- Give me my glasses.

- No.

- Give me my glasses.

- You give me my car keys.

- No.

- Yes.

You stay at home.

Till you dress normal...

you don't come to work.

Trees and bees--

- Hey, Daryl, where are you?

- [ Daryl ] Hi, honey.

- Dawn, this is Heather.

- Hey, I'm Heather.

- Let's do it.

- Let's make a commercial.

- I'm a really big fan of yours.

- Well, thanks.

- It's so weird to meet my voice.

- Welcome to the family.

What? This script only has my lines,

and I don't see another character here.

- i told you,you are the

trademark voice of Huckabees.

- So--

- Right. So what's the problem?

- She's the voice.

- I'm the face.

- Go, Heather.

- Girl,you could--[ Laughing ]

- Yeah, yeah.

All this,

and brains too.

Son of a b*tch, Daryl!

- They want me back in a bikini?

-[ Screams ]

- Dawn, please.

- Wake up, pretty girl.

- The joke's on you! The joke is on you!

- Ow! Ow!

- No, stop.

- Don't look at me. I just want to be left alone.

I'm sick of this.

I'm sick of you all looking at me.

Look at me. Please,

please, please, everybody.

Everybody look at me now. I am so pretty.

I am so pretty. Look at me.

Everybody just wants

to be me. I'm pretty.

- Shania's on the stage.

We've got the executives here...

- That's great.

working their way back

to the, uh, lesser donators.

Right. Well, when we did

the Garth beneft in Dallas...

- we put the $1 0,000 donors up here.

- Wow, Garth.

Was that Garth Garth,

or Chris Garth?

- That's classic Garth. The best.

- Classic Garth costs.

Yeah, so, when we did the Garth benefit

in Dallas, that's what we--

Where's Marty?

Where is he?

Have you even seen

my commercials?

- Have you? i'm doing this for you.

- Oh, my God.

- They're your detectives,

and they gave me this truth.

- Wow. Nutty.

Do you understand?

There's glass between us!

Don't look at me like that.!

[ Thuds ]

- Hey, hey. Hey--

- There you are, Marty.

- Why don't you like my spots?

- Honey, this look is hurting you,

and it's hurting Huckabees.

- This is myself.

- Then you won't speak at the benefit as yourself.

- That is not Huckabees.

- I am still Huckabees.

- Not in that bonnet.

- It's in my eyes, Marty.

It's like that story

of the cave.

What in God's name

is happening to you?

We trusted you. We took care of you.

We made you into a national icon.

Pulled you out of a mall.

Eh, you've been given everything by Huckabees.

- F***-a-bees!

- Ooh.

- Wow, wow, wow.

- Bradley, there's board members here.

- She's knocking on the glass--

- That's not gonna look too good

for a new corporate guy.

- What? I got corporate?

- You got corporate.

- I got corporate?

- Yeah, you got corporate. Now go and contain her.

All right?

She said, ''F***-a-bees.''

- Yeah.

- She said f***--

What are you doing?

What are you

doing to us?

I'm in my tree.

I'm talking to the Dixie Chicks...

and they're making me

feel better.

Well, I think the Dixie Chicks would like you

to know that I just got promoted.

- What?

- V.P. for public affairs.

I got corporate, Dawn.

I'm sorry you had to go through all this.

It's for the greater good.

I went to the detectives to shake Albert

out of the coalition.

- I admit that.

- This doesn't make sense.

Sweetheart, you're

mixing yourself up.

Listen, you're mixing

it all up.

- [ Crying ] Wait a second.

- Huh.

Do you even care about

the marsh and the woods?

Yes, I care about the marsh and the woods.

Albert was not gonna save 'em his way.

You don't go through the back door

with a poem and a bonnet.

You go through the front door with a tie,

and you own the marsh and the woods.

That's how you're

gonna save 'em.

- Let's celebrate.

- Mm-hmm.

- You want some new clothes?

- Yeah.

- I'll get you whatever you want.

What do you need?

- I don't know.

- Pedicure?

- Yeah, but do i have to be pretty all the time?

Well, you know,

you have a choice.

But, no, it's not a choice.

I do have to be pretty.

Well, i'm pretty sure the Dixie Chicks

would want you to spread your love...

here where you can

at Huckabees.

Right. That's good.

You know what?

You got Albert fired.

Stay positive. Bermuda.Jet Skis.

Pina coladas. All right?

- Yeah.

- When you leave the office, will

you go through the back door?

Okay? 'Cause you

don't look so good today.

Okay. Okay.

- Okay?

- Mm-hmm.

[ Chattering ]

Hey, Tom, Tom.

Go for it, man.

[ Speaking French ]

The woods are hopeless.

Don't waste your time. They will be destroyed.

So will the marsh.

It is a losing game...

mankind has played

for more than a century.

Sadness is what you are.

Do not deny it.
