How long you guys been dating?

Like a week.

You-- you've been dating a week

and he's already letting

-you borrow his truck

-yeah.

-Why? Is that weird?

-No. Damn, girl.

You just-- you move fast.

That's incredible.

What did you do

to get that one? Sh*t.

I know.

I just gave him a blowj*b.

You're so funny. I love you

so much. You're amazing.

Oh, my god,

you're my favorite person,

I've ever met.

Oh, my god.

You're good to go ladies.

Engine just needed

to cool down a bit.

Oh, my god,

you're a Saint smithy,

- thank you so much!

- -Thank you so much!

Would you mind, actually just

snapping a quick photo of us?

That'd be really great.

- Okay.

-Thank you.

Okay, cheese.

Actually, that smile,

and if you hold your back

down like this,

it might look better.

And even at an angle, maybe.

Cool.

Okay, here you go.

Thank you.

Sorry, would you actually,

would you mind

just taking a few more?

Maybe, if you got lower,

then you can get

the sign above our heads,

and that would be amazing.

Here you go.

-Thanks, you're the best.

-Sure.

Just do it on your left.

If you get lower,

that would be better.

- You mean on the floor?

- -Yeah, if you can.

Okay.

Last one.

Should we try one

with the peace sign?

Yeah.

Oh, my god,

i love this time of the day.

I'm just not sure

if we should paint it or not.

I think I like this color.

I think it's perfect.

So nice here.

I mean, you really

should've seen it

when we bought it,

because it was wild.

Then Ezra and I were able to do

all the renovations ourselves,

- which was really special.

He's so great at that.

We should probably

head back soon.

No, are you crazy?

We just got here.

I know something we should do.

-Do you do this a lot?

-Not anymore, really.

I think the last time we did

it was probably burning man.

- Have you been to burning man?

Cause' you could totally

join our camp next year.

It'd be really fun.

Oh, I'm so happy we are here.

Happy's is the best.

I mean, like,

the crowd it is a bit stretch,

but they always have great music

-in the fest as surprise

-cool.

Mm-hmm.

-Is everything okay?

-Yeah, totally.

-It's Dan checking up on me.

-Oh, that's really sweet.

Ezra never checks up on me.

Come on, hurry up.

Oh, yeah. Now, I'm gonna--

gonna do it too.

I wanna dance, I wanna dance,

i wanna dance, I wanna dance.

- No, to you.

- -No, to you.

-Cheers.

-Cheers.

Shot, shot, shot, shot,

shot, shot, shot, shot...

Dan's gonna kill me.

Okay, you need to relax,

it's just a scratch.

And I bet

he won't even notice it.

You can buff that right out.

What do you think

i should say happened?

Um... say like,

"look, I made a mistake."

And I'm sure he'll understand.

Now, you really shouldn't let

a little scratch

ruin otherwise perfect night.

Yeah, you're so right.

Can I tell you a secret?

Um... yeah.

Do you see

that house over there?

-Twenty-two, flamingo Lane.

-Yeah.

Well, I'm thinking

about buying it.

And this is gonna sound like,

such a crazy idea...

But I have this dream

of opening a boutique hotel

that's filled with like,

everything I love,

and everything in it

is for sale.

I's gonna be like my instagram,

but in real life.

Okay, you have to do that.

Like, now.

--That's amazing.

I'm thinking about calling it...

"Desert door."

-Did you just come up with that?

-No, I mean, i-- I wish.

It's from this Norman mailer

book that I'm obsessed with

called the deer park.

-The deer park?

-Mm-hmm.

Could you actually promise

that, um...

Not to say anything to Ezra?

Because I haven't actually

talked to him about it yet.

Yeah. Why?

I don't know. Like, ever since

i convinced him to quit his job

and become an artist full time,

he's just been like,

super-weird about money.

But I thought you said

his paintings were popular.

No, I mean, like,

don't get me wrong.

He is absurdly talented,

but he doesn't

believe in self-promotion,

and just like, thinks...

It's really phony or something.

I'm sorry, I'm like,

talking at you.

You probably think I'm awful.

No.

-You're perfect.

-Yeah, perfectly f***ed up.

No.

You are, by far the coolest,

most interesting person

I've ever met.

I'm serious.

My god.

Thank you.

You're a really good friend,

Ingrid.

We're missing all

these shooting stars.

- Hmm.

-Come on.

We did it.

Thank you.

- Thank you.

-Oh, and tell Dan

I'm really sorry

about his truck.

But I'm really looking forward

to meeting him.

-Okay. Bye.

-Bye.

Its obviously day,

so I don't know where she is.

- Sh*t. Sh*t, sh*t.

- - I tried calling her...

- Hey.

I apologize to you, guys.

Sorry for wasting your time.

-Yo! Where the f*** were you?

-I'm sorry--

-you sorry?

-Yeah. I'm--

false alarm, guys.

Go on about your day.

-F***!

-How was the table read?

How was-- I had to cancel it.

No catwoman. No table read.

-What the f*** is this?

-I know. Look, you can probably

-buff it right out.

-Look at my sh*t!

It was an accident, okay.

I'm sorry.

I'll pay for it, okay?

Some of it.

-All of it, okay?

-Is there anything else

I need to know about Ingrid?

We might have done

all of your cocaine

-that we found in the--

-shut the f*** up.

Thank you, guys. All good.

Thank you for your service.

-What the f***'s wrong with you?

-I'm sorry.

I trusted you.

As you live here.

I called the police

worried about you.

I should've been worried

about my f***ing truck.

You're supposed to be catwoman.

You ain't nothing but two-faced.

Here I was looking out for you.

-F*** that. Don't, watch out.

-Dan.

- It's just a--

-damn me.

Damn all that, man.

Feet on the ground,

head in the skies.

Twin ladies emoji.

"Dear Charlotte,

you're probably wondering

what I've been up to

these last few weeks.

Well, I decided

to give myself a fresh start

in beautiful, sunny Los Angeles.

L.A. is the best."

Yeah, I think we're doing okay.

"I found an amazing house

by the beach,

and I'm making a ton

of new friends.

My best friend Taylor

has been helping me

explore my creative side.

It's a part of me

I never even knew existed."

What's is this? You need this.

You need this in your house.

-It'd like, change everything.

-Yeah, totally.

"I've been getting

really into photography lately.

You should totally

follow me on instagram.

I have almost 1,000 followers

and I'm getting new ones

everyday.

I have a boyfriend now too.

His name is Daniel

and he's absurdly talented.

He's writing the new

Batman movie.

Pretty cool, huh?

Anyway,

I hope you're doing well.

I know I am.

That's all thanks to you.

So... no hard feelings.

Your friend, always."

- Hey.

- -Hey.

So cute, I love that.

Thanks.

Whose car's parked

- in the driveway?

- - Hey, sis?

- Yeah.

-You float me some cash.

I had to cancel

my credit cards

and I need some clothes

for tonight.

- Okay. Stop it.

I got it.

- Nicky?

- -Yes?

Why don't you have

any clothes, man?

-Who's this?

Oh, sorry, this is Ingrid.
