Margaret Page #5

My mom hasn't read any of

these books, by the way.

Have you?

Some of them.

Not all of them.

This book is

a very cool book.

Yeah, I think The Third Reich may be a

little bit too much for me right now.

It's pretty hard to put down

once you get started.

Do you want

anything to drink?

I'd take a beer.

Okay, that's

in the kitchen.

This is my room.

Ta-da.

Very nice.

These are some

drawings I did.

Not that I should be

showing them to you, because

I know you're like a really

good artist, right?

I would like to be

a really good artist.

At this point, I think

it would be more

accurate to say

I'm good at drawing.

Yeah, I just do it for fun. But

I've always really liked it.

So, can I ask

you something?

Yes?

This is probably gonna sound

very immature,

but how can you be so relaxed,

knowing what we're about to do?

Or is it just like

no big deal to you?

Okay, that was

a really stupid question,

and I'm totally

embarrassed right now.

I'm actually more embarrassed

than I've ever been in my life.

If you wanna go home now,

that's totally okay.

Easy there.

Don't be embarrassed.

It's basically, like,

the world's greatest activity,

but it's not actually worth

getting nervous about.

Yeah, I don't usually get nervous

because I think it's worth it,

I usually get nervous because

I can't help the way I feel.

There is that philosophy.

You are so funny.

Do you have an ashtray?

You can just chuck

it out the window.

How would one just

chuck it out the window?

Oh, you just slide

the little door...

Like that?

Yes.

Am I supposed to go really

fast at the end or something?

Yeah, but we're gonna

move on before that.

Here.

Oh, oh. You don't

have to do that.

I know.

I want to.

But don't do that.

I'm just embarrassed.

Let me do it to you.

All right.

Um...

Any general guidelines?

Just be careful.

Okay.

Are you ready?

Yeah.

Okay.

Now, this is a little tricky. It's

probably gonna hurt a little at first,

but then it's gonna get better.

Just be patient.

There are certain

technical difficulties on

my end that have

to be addressed,

or it's not gonna happen.

Okay. You sound

insane.

Okay, ready?

Yeah.

Okay.

Mmm-hmm.

Okay, hang on.

Okay, there we go.

Does it hurt now?

Kind of, yeah.

Okay, just try to relax. It'll

get better in a second...

Did you bring a condom?

- huh.

Shouldn't you put it on?

I will in a second.

This is really

kind of hurting.

Okay, one second.

I love you.

What?

Nothing.

Okay. Hold on.

Sh*t.

What?

Okay, one second.

Oh! Sorry.

Sorry.

Oh!

Sorry about that.

Kind of got away from me.

Did any of it

get inside me?

I don't know.

Yeah.

It definitely did.

Honest to God,

it's probably okay.

The odds are overwhelmingly

that it's okay.

That's my little brother.

Hey, Curtis.

Hi.

I loved it.

It was so exciting.

But how about those people

yelling "bravi" and "brave"?

How do you mean?

Well, it's just

so pretentious.

"Bravi, bravi." Why can't

they just say "bravo"?

Well, it's the plural. It's what they

say to acknowledge the ensemble.

No, I know it's correct, but don't

you think there's just something

a little pretentious

about some of those people?

Pretentious?

I don't mean they

didn't really enjoy it,

but you know how you can

be enjoying something,

but you're also kind of looking around,

out of the corner of your eye,

because you know people are

watching you enjoy it?

Yes, but I wouldn't say

that it was pretentious.

In Italian you say "bravo" for the

man and "brava" for the woman,

and "bravi" for

the whole company.

- huh. Okay, I see

what you mean.

You use the masculine

for the male singer

and the feminine

for the female singer.

Anyway, I really enjoyed it.

Thank you.

We'll have to go again.

It was so glamorous.

Accident Investigation,

Detective Mitchell.

My name is Lisa Cohen.

I was a witness

in a bus accident

case a few weeks ago.

Yeah, hi, Lisa.

What can I do for you?

Well, are you

allowed to tell me how

to get in touch with

that woman's family?

I really wanted to send

some flowers or something,

or is that like

classified information?

No, the family's been notified.

Let me see what I got.

She mentioned

she had a daughter.

Just hold on a second.

How are you doing, okay?

I'm okay.

All right, let me just...

Okay, I don't have

anything for a daughter.

The only contact I have is

a cousin, Abigail Berwitz.

I got a phone

number in Arizona.

Okay.

Mmm-hmm.

I'm trying to

reach Abigail Berwitz?

This is Abigail.

Hi.

My name is Lisa Cohen.

You don't know me.

Yes? Hello?

I'm actually calling about

your cousin, Monica Patterson?

Okay?

Um...

I was actually

there when she had...

During the accident,

I didn't know her,

but I was holding

her hand at the time.

Yes? What can I do

for you?

Um...

Okay, well...

I saw her obituary

in the paper,

but can you hold

on one second?

Can you shut

up for five minutes?

What am I supposed to do?

I have to practice.

I don't give a sh*t!

Sorry. Um...

I didn't see anything about a funeral.

I assume they had one.

As far as I know,

they're doing

something or other

next week, but...

I'm sorry,

I was also wondering...

She said something

about her daughter?

No. She wanted someone

to get in touch...

No. Her daughter's not alive. She

passed away quite a long time ago.

Oh, my God.

Was she sick?

Or was it...

She had leukemia.

Oh, my gosh.

Mmm-hmm.

And do you mind if I ask...

Could I just interrupt?

How did you get this number?

This is harassment!

I'm sorry. I'm not

trying to harass you.

I've been getting

calls about this

for three weeks,

and I gotta tell you people,

I didn't have any kind of

relationship with Monica whatsoever.

The person you

should be calling is

Emily Morrison,

who was Monica's friend.

She's the person who's been dealing

with all of this in New York.

It has nothing

to do with me.

I'm sorry! I didn't really

know who to contact.

Now, I can give you

her number,

but I would very much appreciate

it if the calls would stop.

Yeah...

Can you hold on

while I get a pen?

Yes.

All right.

Okay.

Hi, are you Lisa?

Yes.

As most of you know,

Monica was not

a religious woman.

Anybody who ever

had to sit through

a wedding or

a funeral with her

knows how she felt about

formal occasions.

So Harry, Elise and I,

we were talking about this,

decided we would

just have everyone over,

and let anyone who wanted to talk

about Monica, just talk about her.

Maybe share some remembrances.

Some of us know each other

and some of us don't.

But we're all here...

We're all here

because we loved Monica

and because we want to pay

tribute to her in a way

that might conceivably

not enrage her.

Now, I don't wanna tell anyone

what to think, or how to feel.

And I don't want

to kid myself about

the stupid, meaningless

way that she died,

because that would really

make her throw up,

but I don't want it to become
