The Gio Ponti.

We just went right ahead and

did the deed over martinis.

Beautiful, perfect.

That's great.

Our Two Architects.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay, I'll call you later.

Rusty!

Look, I'm really

sorry, okay I didn't know.

I didn't know!

I mean, who trades

properties, right?

l've got some more news.

Being sued over the noitra.

Just got a call

from our lawyers.

Look Rusty, I'm

really sorry, l, l...

I didn't know!

Excuse me, do you have anything

stronger here than beer?

We have wine in

the case over there.

Could you help me find

it, I didn't see it.

You know why don't

you keep looking,

we're open all day.

Hey!

Would you get the man

his wine!

Do you want some wine?

Actually I want a dry martini, but

I don't think he'll get it for me.

Let me show you the

wine, it's over here.

Give me the keys.

What?

The keys, give me the keys.

Where am I going to sit!?

A taxi.

Nice.

I'm Denny.

I know you from somewhere.

Where?

You're a porn star aren't you?

I knew it when you

walked in and I thought,

that's what I want.

Aporn star.

I knew I wanted you

when I first saw you.

I'm positive.

Yeah?

I'm not worried though.

I'm going to cure it.

I'm going to find a way.

I'm going to create a system, my body

is going to metamorphis AlDS away.

F*** me.

I want you to f*** me.

I have to get a condom.

I have some.

Can I stay with you

for a couple of days?

Hey.

Hey handsome.

You're awake.

Hey are you part Asian?

Pure English.

You look kind of

Asian when you're asleep.

You're watching me sleep?

Yeah, first time I made it

was with a Hawaiian guy.

I'm starving, let's

order some room service.

They don't have room

service at the Chopper,

but we have to go

to the coffee shop.

Hmm.

So let's go to the coffee shop.

Nobody's watching.

What are you looking at?

You.

Well, what do you see?

I don't think you're

too sure of yourself.

And you think too much

too, it gets in your way.

That's pretty sharp.

I can go on.

I really, really had a

great time last night.

Yeah, you were really fun.

You made me feel

like somebody else.

Well maybe you just felt like

yourself for the first time.

I really like you Rusty.

So what are you doing

for the rest of the day?

Any big plans?

Thought I would just

hang out with you.

Would you put some

lotion on my back,

I can't reach it.

You know you should

moisturize twice a day,

it's good for your skin.

You're the best thing that's

happened to me in a long time,

you know that?

I need a hundred bucks.

Expensive cigarettes.

I need some crystal.

I need it for the pain.

I don't think so.

Hey, a lot of f***ed up

sh*t has happened to me,

and I don't mean this as a put

down but you haven't got a clue

of some of the sh*t

l've been through,

you just don't fuckingg know.

Let's just think about it later.

I was in some videos Rusty.

We can rent one of them when we

get my crystal and you can f***

me and watch me being

f***ed on TVat the same time.

How's that sound?

Porn star.

Where you going?

I'll be right back.

I'll go with you.

No, stay here,

I'll be right back.

Hey.

Hey, you going to be around?

What time should I come by?

Okay, I want a

hundred bucks worth.

I know, I know!

Listen I'll suck

your cock, relax.

I know I owe you!

No way man!

No, you've got to

give me a break!

Okay, okay, two hundred bucks.

You're still going to

give me a bag right?

Yeah, and the blow job.

Listen, take a

fuckingg bath will you?

Wow, look at this.

I was going to come get

you when I was ready.

Wow, this looks great.

What is it a martini

from a can?

And that's not all.

After that you're

going to f*** me.

Well that sounds great too.

But first, you're going

to go to your wallet

and take out a couple

hundred bucks.

And then....

And then?

And then we're going

to go get my crystal.

Uh huh.

And then we just

f*** and f*** and f***.

Denny, there's no way I'm going to

give you money to buy crystal.

There's no way.

I think way too much of you now

to just let you kill yourself.

You told me you have AlDS, can't

be good for you to smoke crack

when you have AlDS.

Crystal has

nothing to do with AlDS,

okay, there's no connection,

nobody's proved anything.

Denny, you're killing yourself.

So you're not going

to give me the money?

lt's not about money.

So give it to me then.

Not for you to buy drugs.

F*** you man.

Hey.

Hey.

So I just came from

the lawyers'office.

Oh great.

What is going on?

Huh, I mean are

we still partners?

Youi hungry?

Meat, uck!

My girlfriend would have a fit.

We're on this yogurt diet thing

and she wants me to clean my

intestines with her.

Ahhh, but think what this

meat will do to your intestines?

Yeah, give it to me!

So Denny, huh.

What's going on with that?

I think I'm in love with him.

I want to hold him forever and

God he just needs somebody to

help him.

That's what you

said about the noitra.

That was a wreck!

Yeah, first look, couldn't

wait to get your hands on it.

Right, because it needed me.

Yeah.

So why did he run away?

Denny.

Denny.

His name is Denny.

Yeah, I know, why

did Denny run away?

Just now?

He was mad because I wouldn't

give him money for crystal meth.

Jesus.

And do I like him when I don't

give him money for it or when l

do give him money for it?

I mean I'm not his parent right?

Should I just use him and f***

him like everybody else does?

He's not a house Rusty.

You can't restore him.

I just really like the way

I feel when I'm with him.

Yeah, I can imagine.

I mean seriously, it's like the

first time in my life I'm not

thinking about chairs or

noitras or rights or houses,

I can just like be in

the moment with him.

[lawnmower running]

[door closing]

Rusty look, I apologize

for getting pissed.

Accepted.

Come on have some of the

breakfast you brought.

I'm not all that hungry now.

Oh, come on sit down.

This is my friend Garrett.

Garrett.

Denny, right?

He's my partner.

Business partners.

I want to make

Rusty my partner too,

not for business

though, for pleasure.

Hmm.

Yeah, Rusty's a good guy.

I don't know that

many good guys.

Okay, well, you two have

something to talk about.

Yeah, I'll see you in court.

You don't have to go.

I'll work on that.

Oh, he's straight.

Straight?

I know a lot of straight

guys that like to fool around.

Come on stay.

Oh, well, you know

not this one, okay.

I have to wash my hands.

So tempting,

really, but the hands.

I'm sure.

She can smell meat

on me for miles.

Rusty...

I'm sorry I freaked!

I really like you.

I can't buy you crack.

Crystal.

Whatever.

Nobody's proved anything.

Look, it's a

homemade drug right?

And AlDS weakens the immune system

and crystal goes after your

kidneys and God

knows what else.

lt makes me stronger,

it's like medicine.

Have you ever even tried it!

lt can't be good for

you in your situation.

But you don't know,

you've never tried it.

There's nothing you're going
