Order Of Chaos Page #2

---

Oh, for my birthday?

A present?

You shouldn't have.

Look under

the table.

What's under

the table?

It's your present.

Okay.

What is it?

What you have there?

Oh!

What's the matter, you don't

want to open your present?

You got me.

I got you?

Okay, one more toast

and then I got to go.

I'm sorry,

I'm engaged.

Well, that's too bad because

I thought that we had something.

We've got drinks.

Toast!

Won't you

come over here?

Don't be shy,

come on.

What do you want me

to do?

Oh man,

that was great.

Come on.

No, I've got to go.

Really, thanks for the fun.

We'll have

a nightcap.

Seriously, Rick,

I can't.

See you Monday.

Hey!

Wait, did you give that girl

money or something?

It was her idea.

Bull.

Bull.

Come on, man.

Things like that...

...don't happen to me.

What did you do?

I said, "Show John

your p*ssy."

You just said it?

It's the end of the world, man.

Do what you want.

Sorry, hold on.

Hey, honey!

Yeah, I'm just--

I'm right by the elevator.

No, I didn't see

that you called.

Ms. Craig insisted that I get

a drink for a colleague and...

Look, I'm right by

the elevator.

I'll be there

in two seconds.

Okay.

Bye.

That's why I don't have

a relationship

that lasts longer

than six months.

Yeah.

She's...

We're engaged.

You mentioned that.

Um, I have so much

on my mind, you know?

I'd rather just

not fight.

As long as

you're happy, right?

Hey, peace is the only battle

worth waging, you know?

I envy you.

Stable job,

stable girl.

It's all you can

hope for, right?

We're definitely stable.

Now, I mean.

She's a few years older than me

and when we met,

I thought I needed stable and

more mature to calm me down.

Can I be honest

with you, John?

Yeah.

You're boring

the sh*t out of me.

Wake up!

Wake up.

Look, man, get in there

and finger bang her

like Lenny Kravitz.

The two of you could use it,

okay? All right?

Yeah.

All right.

See you Monday.

Monday.

Where have you been?

Sorry I'm so late.

Go walk the dog.

Jennifer, could you bring up

those veggie burgers, please?

Hello, I'm right here!

Mr. Grumpy.

Hey, let me

handle the steak.

Get yourself a beer.

Want one?

Yeah, grab me another.

Yeah.

Dad, will you

put these on for John?

Oh right,

the vegetarian cuisine.

Don't start!

What? What?

Thank you.

How's the work going,

John?

It's going.

I'm working on a pretty complex

deal right now.

Working for

The Man.

As opposed to working

for the DMV?

Touch.

John, why don't you invite

that friend of yours over?

A co-worker of John's

just moved into the building.

He's...uh...

he's kind of,

I don't know.

He had him out till 1:00

in the morning.

I don't know if I can handle

two lawyers while I'm eating.

Daddy.

Marty.

Goddammit,

I'm messing around!

Who wants a steak?

Spying on me?

Sh*t!

B*tch, you scared

the daylights out of me.

I knocked

on your door.

I wanted to see if you wanted

to join us for a barbecue.

And I was spying

on you.

Wanted to see

if you were home.

Let me get

some shoes.

You've got a better view

than me.

You got any pets?

I've got a dog...

and fish.

Fish are cool.

Yeah.

Work, though.

Yeah. Animals are better

than people.

They don't

bullshit you.

You wouldn't bullshit me,

would you?

Think you could ever

kill someone?

Huh?

You know, like self-defence

or whatever.

I've never really

thought about it.

I've got enough anxiety

as it is

and I've never done

anything wrong,

so I doubt it.

So you think

that killing someone,

even in self-defence,

is wrong?

I don't know.

Why do you ask?

Are you on meds?

I'm not judging you.

I used to be.

I just got a vibe,

that's all.

I've been on prescription

drugs for most of my life.

It was first for ADD,

and then ADHD, manic depression,

and now it's hyperanxiety.

What about you?

You said "were"?

Until I found out

what mind control is.

The sh*t's poison.

I didn't realize

you're a doctor.

I'm not.

Scientologist?

No.

I self-medicate

now.

With what?

Not giving

a sh*t.

Look her

in the eye.

Yeah.

You're a dog person.

Everybody,

this is Rick.

Rick, this is Jennifer,

my fiance.

This is her mother,

Sherry.

This is Stephanie,

my sister...

who likes bad boys.

This is her father,

Marty.

How are you doing,

Marty?

Shiny watch.

Watch out, Marty has

an aversion to money

and those who make it.

John!

I'm just

messing around.

We have that kind of

relationship, don't we, Marty?

I guess we do.

Rick, please.

I'll grab you something.

Saint Peter's like,

"Sister, Sister...

we're all gonna get

into heaven."

It's getting

pretty late.

We should

close this thing down.

Yeah,

it's so late.

Rick.

It was nice

to meet you.

Goodnight.

I'm just going to

clean up.

Interesting girl.

What does that mean?

Nothing bad.

By the way...

thanks for entertaining

the troops.

Families are f***ed.

That Marty guy

is an a**hole.

Whatever.

No, not "whatever."

I don't really care about

the dynamic in there,

but I used to be

a lot like you.

Don't let people push you around

in your own house.

Nobody pushes me

around.

I'm not judging you.

My philosophy is

"know thyself."

That's it.

Look, you're on

the John train.

Your life is the track

that you're heading down.

The most anyone

can ever do

is have their train running

right next to yours, right?

Because that's

their life.

If you know in your balls

where you're headed,

if you know

who you are,

then all you have to do

is look to your left

and look to the right

and see who's keeping up.

Everybody else

can kiss your f***ing ass.

It takes balls

to be an individual.

Society doesn't teach you that

skill, but it rewards it,

and that's how

successful people live.

Independently.

Sounds like you've read

a lot of self-help books.

Come on, John.

Say goodnight.

I've got to go.

Hey, I'll see you

tomorrow.

Come on, Rick.

What the hell?

Run along.

The little lady's

calling you.

I'm f***ing

with you, man.

I'll see you tomorrow.

All right.

Hey.

Thanks for being real

with me.

Goodnight.

Take out the trash.

I don't want to wake up

to the smell of all that food

in the morning.

Rick is...

interesting.

Yeah,

I like him.

I don't know what kind

of a lawyer he is,

but he's definitely

interesting.

A little arrogant,

though.

By the way, you will be

apologizing to my dad.

For what?

You know what.

That rude comment you made

about him and money?

Jennifer,

I'm tired,

I've got a lot on my mind,

and your dad is an a**hole.

Why don't you give him

the speech

and tell him

to get off my back?

Excuse me?

Don't be dramatic.

See you in a bit.

Come on, boy.

She had no idea

she was on camera?

It was her idea.

Flip off after the money shot?

It's priceless.

Yeah, that's one of my girls

likes it a little weird.

One of your girls?

I'd say we're f*** buddies

but we don't get along.

Johnny boy!

Hey, come check this out.

Come here.
