so I mean, you know...
Why did you leave?
I want to know all about you.
And I do. Mmm.
When did you leave?
I mean, how long ago was it?
When?
September the 4th,
my 14th birthday.
Why?
Because they forgot
my 14th birthday, for one.
There were no birthday card,
candles, cake.
No "happy birthday."
Nothin', so...
But it wasn't just that
that ticked me off.
I... I was ticked off before,
when they forgot my 13th birthday.
But, um...
but I figured
I was too young.
So I made a promise
to myself.
I said, "Now, if they forget next year,
that's it. Finito. You're... You're gone."
So.
They forgot?
Yeah.
And you left?
Mmm.
Mmm.
Well, it was just what broke the
camel's back, I guess, you know?
I... It's not in my nature
to stay where I'm not
wanted, so I don't...
Oh.
I know
how you must've felt.
But don't be bitter. Okay?
Just facing facts.
And all these questions
that you're
askin' about me,
I have a feeling that they're just your
way of not facing facts about yourself.
I mean, I'd... I'd like to ask
some questions about your life.
How about it?
Well, don't.
Why not?
Because I don't
have the answers.
Sometimes I...
I feel like
it's all been a waste.
Now, don't you
go feelin' bitter.
Okay.
That's some stereo
you got.
Come on.
I have something
I wanna tell you.
Mmm, Strip.
Trish, I wanna
tell you something.
Let's smoke some pot.
No.
I don't want you doing drugs.
You hear?
Why not?
That scene is nowhere.
I don't want you doing that.
Not even Sominex.
Okay. All right.
I won't.
What is it?
I love you.
I just thought
you should know.
Do you love me?
I know you do.
Just say it.
Strip.
You don't love me?
Oh, Strip...
Am I not good enough
for you? Is that it?
Oh, no, Strip, no.
That's just not true.
I was good enough for you
this morning, wasn't I?
You loved me this morning,
didn't you?
Yes.
I love you in bed.
You just don't love me
out of bed.
Strip, wait.
Oh, this is... This is ridiculous.
Don't do this.
Oh, Strip, listen.
What... You're fooling around
with something I feel here.
Look, when you're ready
to admit that you love me,
you can have me,
but not until.
Strip.
What?
Look, if you're not ready to commit
to a meaningful relationship with me,
one that could be very beautiful,
could be very uplifting,
it's over.
Because I've had it
with cheap sex. I have.
It leaves me
feelin' cheap.
Not that I don't feel lucky
that someone of your type
wants to be... Make it with someone like me.
I do.
I've been lucky most of my life.
And, uh...
You know,
I'll be honest with you.
to this extent before.
But I'd be willing
to blow it,
because I think there's an
important principle at stake here.
I don't...
I don't know exactly what, what it is.
I can't put my finger on it,
but, but I know it.
Can I, uh, tell you
something?
I've never had
cheap sex before.
I was sort of
looking forward to it.
And you thought that I would
be the perfect one to, uh...
To do this with.
Geez.
Strip, no, I didn't.
Oh, no, no, no.
Listen.
I don't even know what the word
"love" means anymore.
I don't even know
what cheap sex is.
Oh, I do love you.
Oh, I do love you.
I do.
I was sure you did.
Mmm.
Thank you for the shirt.
I really like it.
I'm glad.
I love the way you look in it.
Thanks.
What are you
thinking?
I'm thinking...
What?
That I wish we were
home together in bed.
That's exactly
what I'm thinking.
Were you?
Mmm-hmm.
I'm also thinking
how special you are.
Remarkable, really.
You are.
You don't know it, but you are.
What else?
I'm wondering what you're
gonna do with your life.
It's exciting. It is.
Well, I don't know.
I mean...
I guess I've been wondering
the same thing, but...
Oh, Strip.
I wanna ask you something.
Okay, remember when I walked
into the cook store
and I asked you did you remember me,
and you said, "No"?
Didn't you remember me?
Yes, I remembered you.
Oh, I thought so.
Good.
You just didn't want to admit it,
probably, right?
I just didn't
want to admit it.
I was thinking
of your old man.
What'd he do? Discover the formula
for frozen yogurt or something?
What?
He's in real estate.
Oh.
Well, you'll always have a roof
over your head, huh? I suppose so.
See, I know
I got the ability.
If I just put my mind to somethin',
I can do anything.
Well, you got any ideas?
I mean, maybe you could help me.
You can do anything you want.
You don't need me.
Don't even think that.
Okay?
I love you.
me saying "I love you"?
'Cause if you are,
I don't have to say it so much.
No, I want you to say it.
You do?
Please say it.
Say it.
Mmm.
Give me some more kisses
on my neck.
Mmm.
Ow!
Oh, I'm sorry.
Oh, I'm sor...
Did I hurt you?
It's okay. It's just my eye.
But don't...
Would you mind
taking it off though?
I don't like you wearing it anyway.
Makes me think of him.
Can you help me?
This must've cost
a pretty penny, huh?
a better way of takin' it off.
All of these...
These little trinkets mean somethin' special?
They did at one time.
I'm not talking about
the bracelet anymore.
Mmm.
What's the matter?
Nothing.
It's just...
Are you jealous?
You got so many nice things,
you know.
Are you jealous
you don't have 'em?
No, I'm jealous
I can't give 'em to you.
Maybe I'm jealous the other way too.
I don't know. Could be.
Don't be jealous.
Don't be jealous.
Mmm?
Do you know
how happy you make me?
Do you know that?
Do you know how happy
you make me?
Do you think
I'd make a good disc jockey?
I'm not sure there
could be such a thing.
There are no small craft
advisories...
One time I thought I'd like to paint
billboards, like on Sunset Boulevard.
They got billboards with
the rock stars and stuff.
Uh-oh.
Come here. Come here.
Thought I'd make a good vet.
But I can't stand needles.
Well,
that makes it tough.
Mmm.
At least you wanted
to be something.
I've never even thought
of what I wanted to be.
Tell you one thing
though.
I am so tired
of just gettin' by.
That's what we all do
in one way or another.
We all do.
Well, I would like to get by like you're
gettin' by any day, I'll tell you that.
Sometimes when we touch
So your husband's
into real estate, huh?
So am I. Sand castles.
You interested?
And I have to
close my eyes Yes.
And hide
Now, in a minute a wave is gonna come
up and do away with this castle.
I know. That's why
I'm decorating it.
Typical.
I wanna hold you I want
to get a picture of it.
Till the fear in me
subsides
Come on. Get over there.
Oh, this is so beautiful.
Come on, smile.
Get the dogs.
I wanna get a picture of all of you together.
Scamp! Corky!
Come here!
Corky,
get over here.
Come here. Come on. Get over here.
