Guess l did think

it would be a little funny.

l'm sorry.

Guys tell me they love me

all the time.

And it's usually because

they want something.

Well. it was kind of funny.

right?

Ha. ha. ha.

-Please. take those out now.

-Your wish.

Can l say something personal?

Sure.

You smell like

a dead homeless guy.

Yeah. it's probably my shirt.

Take it off.

Oh. no. l can leave it on.

it's fine.

l'm not gonna molest you.

Take it off.

Take it off. take it off.

Let me just air it out a little.

-Give me my poncho.

Oh. my God.

-What are you doing?

-You're so mean.

You guys got the joke! Good one.

-Get in here.

-No. purple's not really my color.

lt's fuchsia and it's

Goddamn Kevin.

Because of you l am in the middle

of nowhere looking for a shirt.

Oh. yeah. no.

goddamn that Kevin.

Why do you even go out

with him. anyway?

ln the beginning. he was sweet.

He made me laugh.

-And when he smiled....

-He was really hot.

l don't know.

Guess it was the way other girls

Iooked at me when l was with him.

l felt proud.

Thought l was the lucky girl

this big. strong Army guy chose.

lt didn't bother you

that he was an a--?

An a**hole?

Yeah.

l just made excuses

for him because...

...it was nice to feel wanted.

See. l don't get that...

...because there are so many guys

who would love to be with you.

Yeah. For a night. maybe.

-So why did you do it?

-The speech?

l don't know.

lt's just....

You're the head cheerleader...

...and l'm the captain

of the debate team.

And l know it's ridiculous to think

that you and me would even....

l guess l just wanted

to talk to you.

And l never did.

and then l realized...

...that was my last chance.

you know?

Well. l'm glad you did.

Look! Your shirt.
