you must be like her.

I mean everybody knows that

she practically raped my sister.

Tory said that she crawled

into bed naked with her.

Well, Paulie's my friend.

So I guess it doesn't really

matter what other people think.

-Hey!

-Hey.

How much does it matter

what people think?

I don't know. It depends

how you're paid, I guess.

How much they're paying you?

My father sent me some seeds.

I was wondering if I could

plant them somewhere.

Well...

in the birch I should

leave you a spot.

Let's see what you got.

Whew! Worm eggs!

Jake's hands are magic.

He knows exactly how to touch me.

Teenage boys are so clumsy though.

No. He's so perfect you wouldn't

believe it. He's like...

like a sculptor.

Roger... well Roger is no sculptor.

More like a...

well, kind of like a plumber.

Mine finishes as soon as

-he's inside. The second.

-That's what you get with mating

with a 16 year old...

Jake...

Oh man...

Jake could go all night.

He's a total man.

Yeah, let's go. Come on.

You wouldn't take it

lying down, would you?

If some girl bird

broke up with you?

You wouldn't just lie

there and squawk.

You'd fly up to the highest branch

and swoop your lady love back again.

You'd fly her away through the sky.

You wouldn't just lie

there and take it...

like a girl.

Paulie?

Pick up a shard.

I said pick up a shard!

Our blood runs together, right?

Blood of the raptor.

Now, cut off my hair.

What for?

Because I'm going to war.

I got nothing to lose now.

Paulie, this is crazy.

Come on.

Paulie... is this for Tory?

Just cut off my hair!

She wants a guy.

Not a girl with hacked hair.

What do you know about it?

I'm sorry.

I'm... I'm sorry, okay?

I just...

I just got to get her back.

Paulie, listen to me.

Tory is not a lesbian.

So you should just

forget about her, okay?

Lesbian?

Lesbian? Are you f***ing kidding me?

You think I'm a lesbian?

You're a girl in love

with a girl, aren't you?

No! I'm Paulie in love with Tory.

Remember?

And Tory is... she is

in love with me. Because

she is mine and I am hers

and neither of us are

lesbians. God!

"I will make me a willow

cabin at your gate. And call

upon my soul within the house.

I will write loyal

cantons of condemned love

and sing them loud

even in the dead of night.

I will hallo your name

to the reverberate hills

and make babbling gossip

of the air cry out 'Victoria!"'

Paulie?

Why don't you come down?

Don't ever touch a raptor.

Please.

-I should have seen it come.

-I saw it coming. I told you.

It's still coming.

I bet he doesn't know how

to do what I can do for you.

Paulie, please.

No, Paulie.

There'll be no more of this, okay?

I love Jake.

Paulie,

listen to me. I'm going

to say this once and never...

ever again.

I will never love anybody

the way I love you, okay?

Never.

You know that

and I know that.

And I will die knowing that, okay?

It just can never... it

just can never ever forever be.

Do you understand?

It just can never...

ever forever be.

Hey, Mary!

So what did you get

on that geography...

Go ahead.

Laugh, it's okay.

If you want to laugh, laugh.

What's so funny?

I know it.

I'm funny.

Paulie, that's enough.

That's enough, Paulie.

Paulie, please.

Your parents are

very worried about you, Paulie.

They say you don't

return their calls.

I have no parents.

I had...

what used to be called

a nervous breakdown once.

When I was a few years

older than you are. And uh...

Someone got me help.

And looking back, Paulie,

I am very glad they did.

Because if they hadn't...

Well, I don't know... it was

like I was a car with no driver.

Shall I abide in this dull world

which in her absence

is no better than a sty?

Hey!

How's it going?

Okay.

Kind of weird actually.

What's going on?

You've ever known

somebody who changed?

What kind of change?

Like total.

Like the change from

this to the winter freeze.

Yeah.

Yeah?

Grass comes back every spring green

as ever. I guess people can too.

Some people never

come back, though. Right?

Yeah, some people.

Listen, why don't you...?

I have to go.

You will not fall.

""Come, you spirits

that tend on mortal thoughts.

Unsex me here!

And

fill me from the crown to the toe

full of the direst cruelty.

Make thick my blood.

Stop up the access

and passage to remorse

that no compunctious visiting

of nature shake my

fell purpose.

Come to my

woman's breasts and

take my milk for gall, you

murdering ministers, wherever

in your sightless substances you

wait on nature's mischief!

Come

thick night, and

pall thee in

the dunnest smoke of hell that

my keen knife see

not the wound it makes,

nor Heaven

peep through the blanket

of the dark to cry,

'Hold, hold!"'

Now, does anyone know

what our friend Lady M. is on about?

Cordelia?

Vampires?

Oh well, I've never

heard that interpretation.

Oh, but that doesn't mean

it's invalid, Cordelia.

Tell us more.

Well, just... all the blood?

Okay.

Thinking about our lunch,

were we, Cordelia? Hm, again?

Ah, Paulie?

You looked like you

were involved with the piece.

I was just thinking whether the Jays

would take the World Series again.

I don't believe you, Paulie.

I saw you listening.

You can go f*** yourself sideways.

Paulie is going through

a difficult time. Mm?

Now, shall I offer up

my interpretation?

I think that Lady Macbeth...

She wants to get up the guts.

Yes, Mary.

To do what she has to do.

Only the girl

part of her doesn't have the guts.

So she says,

"Turn my milk to gall"

and I think gall is poison.

But then what

would happen to the baby?

The baby would die.

And she wants

not to care about that.

She wants not to care,

to be like a guy,

like a man.

Men don't care, see?

I liked what you said about the

Shakespeare. That scary speech.

-You did?

-I wish I could be "unsexed"

or whatever. I mean like it all just

causes so much trouble, you know?

Ah, so see you later.

Read it.

-Out loud?

-Yeah. Right now.

"Dear Miss Oster,

After much difficulty, we have

located your birth mother but we are

sorry to inform you that she does

not wish to be contacted by you..."

Do you want me to keep reading?

-Sorry, Paulie.

-Know what? She has a life.

She has a right

to a f***ing life, Mouse.

You should have got

out of my way, man.

I have been looking

everywhere for you.

I'm sorry I said

"go f*** yourself" in class there.

I was way out of line.

You can give me a detention.

Give me two.

I know someone, Paulie.

A friend

of mine who could really help you.

Help me what?

Help you deal...

I think people who lie to themselves

need help, Fay. Don't you?

Oh, believe me, please.

I know what you're going through.

No, you don't.

Love can be...

a very painful experience.

I know.

You don't know anything.

Yes, Paulie. I think I know.

She's the only person

who ever loved me, you know?

I think I'll die without her.

Hey, kid!

-You know Jake Hollander?

-Yeah, I know him.

Alright, give this to him
