anything.
Are my eyes open or closed?
They're open.
What do you mean?
You were in
a terrible accident.
But you're gonna be fine,
so just hang on, okay?
There's no place to put it.
I can't even find a...
Will somebody call
the f***ing ambulance!
Calm down!
We already called them!
They're obviously
not coming fast enough,
so maybe you
should call them again!
Why not call them again?
You're gonna be...
Could somebody...
Could somebody
call my daughter?
Sure! We can call her.
What's her name?
Just tell me her name
and give me her number.
It's Lisa.
No, that's my name.
Is that your daughter's name?
What? What are you
talking about?
I'm sorry. I'm not
trying to be confusing.
My name is Lisa.
Is that your daughter's name?
Jesus Christ, just call her!
Would you call her?
I can't call her if you
don't give me the number.
I got it.
I got it!
Ma'am?
- You're gonna be okay.
- You're gonna be okay!
What's your
daughter's number?
Sweetie,
I don't think
I'm gonna make it.
Oh, no!
Please hang on. The ambulance
is gonna be here any minute!
So just hang on, okay?
Please!
It's okay.
She's gone.
No! No!
She's gone.
Please let go of me!
Please, let go of me!
Please, let go of me!
Just hang on. They're gonna
be here any minute, okay?
So just hang on!
You're gonna be okay!
You were going
the speed limit?
Yeah.
Lisa? You're Lisa? I just want to
ask you a few questions, okay?
Yeah, sure.
Now, just tell me
everything you saw,
even if you think it might
not be important. All right?
Think of it like a movie.
Like you're watching' a movie
in your head...
It was green as I
came to the intersection.
Could
somebody call my mother?
We already called
your mom,
but I'll have 'em put another call
in to your mother right now, okay?
I know this is
hard for you,
but we gotta get this while it's
still fresh in your mind, okay?
Some of these questions
might seem like
they don't make
a lot of sense to you.
They do make
sense. Just ask me!
Okay, that's what
I'm doin'. All right?
So now I'm gonna ask you,
from where you were standing,
could you see
the traffic light?
Could you tell me if it was red?
Yellow? Green?
She just came
out of nowhere?
What color
was the light?
Boy, I'm sorry...
I..
I guess it was green?
Green?
I think it was
just an accident.
Where were
you at?
I was on Broadway.
What happened to you?
Nothing.
Hello?
So, does anybody
know who she was?
I don't know. I guess
if she had all these
Fairway grocery bags.
What did they do
with her leg?
I have no f***ing idea.
Hey...
Lisa? Are you sure
you don't want me to call in?
Oh, no, thanks.
I mean, thank you.
That's really sweet.
But I'm supposed to
go see Becky anyway,
and I don't really want to sit
here thinking about it all night.
Go to work.
I'll be all right.
- Hey.
- Hey, Darren.
Hey.
Joan?
Yeah?
You got some flowers.
Can you bring 'em in?
Oh, that's good.
I'm glad you guys liked it.
You were great.
Well, we have a lot of
work to do, but it'll be good.
The critics
are gonna love it.
They don't even
know me anymore.
Hey, are you
comin' out?
Um... I don't know.
I'm not sure.
Come on.
Maybe I will.
I don't know if I'm going to.
But I might.
See you later.
Bye.
- Goodnight.
- See you later.
Hi, are you Ramon?
Yes. Hello. You were
wonderful again.
Oh, you're so sweet. And thank
you for the beautiful flowers.
You're very welcome.
And you've seen
the show before?
Yes, two times.
Gosh. That's a lot!
It's a beautiful performance.
I'm sure you will
have a big success.
Well, right now, we're just trying
to focus on what we're doing.
I don't know
if you are busy,
but would you allow
me to buy you a drink?
If you like to
ask your friends...
I'm sorry. I can't.
I'm just on my way home.
Okay, that's no problem.
Tomorrow I'm going
to London for a few days.
Perhaps when I come back.
Um...
Yeah.
Okay.
I'm sorry.
I really have to go.
Okay. That's
no problem.
Anyway, thanks again
for the beautiful flowers!
It's a privilege
to meet you.
It's nice to meet
you, too.
Goodnight.
Goodnight.
Hey.
I thought you
were at the movies.
Yeah, it wasn't
very good.
I was
doing a show in Detroit
and this woman
came backstage,
and she's like,
"Wanna come back
"to my place and
do some cocaine?"
I was like,
"I know the kind of p*ssy..."
Why you pop in
at 4:
00 in the morning?I'll get us thrown out.
Oh, oh. Do the Shirley Temple
! Come on, do the Shirley Temple.
Okay.
J' On the good ship Lollipop
J' It's a sweet
trip to the candy shop
J' And there you are
J' Happy landing
on the chocolate bar
J' If you eat too much
.l' Oh! Oh! You'll... J'
Keep going!
That's awesome!
Wait, what's that one?
Do the baby.
No,
it's too weird.
You have
to do the baby.
Some inspiration.
It's so disturbing.
I know.
It's too weird.
No, it's not.
Have another drink.
I think we can
tell I've had enough.
Matthew, if you would read
the role of France.
And, Anthony, why don't
you read Burgundy?
Burgundy.
the part of Lear again.
Okay, Anthony?
"Royal Majesty,
I crave no more
"than what your
highness offered,
"nor will you
tender less."
"Right, noble Burgundy,
"When she was dear to us,
we did hold her so,
"But now her
price is falls."
My family are
from Colombia.
My father worked in
the diplomatic service.
Really? Wow.
I grew up five years in Panama
and nine years in Paris.
And what do
you do, Ramon?
I have a company.
to help companies
in South American countries
that use an
incompatible software,
so the computers can
talk to each other.
It's a big problem
in South America
where there is not so much coordination
in computer communication.
Right now is a lot
of opportunity for us
because for the big software
companies, we are still the backwoods.
That's changing quite fast.
Can I give you a lift?
Oh, no, thank you, I'm just
gonna grab a cab. But thanks.
May I call
you sometime?
Okay. Sure,
that would be great.
May I have your
telephone number?
Mom?
Just a minute!
Can I come in?
Just a second, please.
Hold on.
Come in.
Can I talk to you?
Sure. What's up?
I'm supposed
to go back to
the police to
confirm my statement
the day after tomorrow.
So what do you
think I should do?
Well, I don't know, sweetie.
I mean, that bus driver probably
has a family to support.
He could probably
lose his job.
So I think you
should really think
about that before
you say anything.
Okay?
Yeah.
Think of the
implications of what you're saying.
I'm saying what is
the frame of reference
for the average
Arab on the street?
Angie. Yeah. My mother's
family is from Syria,
and they're not exactly in
love with the current regime.
And I definitely don't agree with
a lot of their religious views,
especially when it comes to
the oppression of women.
