now give me a sexy look.

I don't know how.

Yo, put the lollipop back

in your mouth, ray.

Lester:
Now give me

a sexy look.

Lester:
I said

with the lollipop in your mouth.

Give me a sexy look.

Mike:
Come on.

Lester:
That's...

That's... that's good.

Mike:
Yeah, bud.

Oh, yeah.

God, you were totally

making out with him

- when I walked into the room.

- It's not true.

Come on, I could practically

smell the sex juices in the air.

I think I'm gonna go home.

No, I'm not teasing you.

Come on.

It's just I'm really

into this idea,

'cause think about it.

If you end up with him,

we'd be best friends

dating best friends.

And like no pressure

or anything.

It's just... I'm really

into this like union.

I really approve.

Great, but I don't

need your approval.

Come on, don't get

all dark right now.

Fine! You guys didn't make out

and... the dream is dead!

Just don't leave!

When I get "all dark",

your phrase, not mine,

it's fairly unstoppable,

as I've told you before.

So I'd rather do it in private

and not embarrass myself,

or you,

in front of your friends.

Fine.

She's going home.

She gets all depressed

out of the blue,

for no apparent reason.

Very typical.

I think I'm gonna

go talk to her.

I totally caught them

making out in the living room.

Sweet.

Hey.

Earlier, um, I didn't mean to...

I wasn't gonna

like cry or anything.

Okay.

So, yeah,

I was just feeling weird.

I didn't understand it.

Sometimes it's like...

I feel too much,

or sometimes

I don't feel enough,

and then I worry

that I'm not feeling

everything I should be,

and then the worry

gets so big that,

suddenly,

I am feeling everything.

It sounds confusing.

Um... it's that I want

to make sure I'm like

doing justice to the moment

by feeling

what I should be feeling,

and I guess having

that part of you opened

can cause you

to be totally insane.

But believe

that I'm not rejecting you

when I say I'm feeling certain

that the last thing I need

right now is a boyfriend.

That's fine.

We can just be friends.

If you wanna be.

That doesn't offend you?

River:
No.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Claire:
Ahem.

So, I know about

the husband's watch.

Jimmy:
I know you know.

The wife called me.

What did she say?

Said she wasn't happy to see you

and to know you know

about the watch.

Okay, what can I say

to you right now

to convince you

to just let me take

one photo of the watch?

I've already expressed to you

my feelings

about getting involved.

I wish you'd listen to me.

Hey.

Okay, I'm gonna go ahead

and hide right now.

- No, no.

- I'm sorry.

No, please.

I wish you wouldn't do that.

- No, I'm so... deeply sorry.

- Please, no, no, no. No. Ah...

Claire:
I'm so sorry.

- Hi.

I'm Mrs. Krimsky.

Yes, of course. Um...

I have your husband's watch.

Oh, thank you

for keeping it here.

I know you didn't have time

to fix it,

but I'd like to pay you,

regardless.

Oh, no, no.

That is not necessary.

As you know by now,

my husband is dead, so...

This watch means a lot to me.

Jimmy:
Oh.

She, um...

Came in just before you did.

She wanted

to take a picture of the watch.

I told her no.

No, it's true.

He refused to show me the watch,

and then you came in

and then I hid, and

he told me not to hide,

but I, um... I did.

Can I smash this clock?!

Do you mind if I throw this

on the ground?

Jimmy:
I guess. Um...

If it makes you feel better.

I apologize for overreacting

and smashing a clock,

but it's only half an apology

because you deserve it.

I lost the only person

in this world

who I loved and loved me.

It is impossible to express

how much I am suffering.

Let's hit the road.

Radio:
Boston Red Sox: 7 runs,

15 hits, 1 error.

11 men left on base.

- For the Yankees, 4 runs...

Wait, wait, wait,

wait, wait, wait.

Ah, it hurts.

It's supposed to hurt.

Gimme me your wallet.

Tsk.

Here's my $200,

plus you got $150 here.

Don't take that.

Please, I need that.

That's what you get

for being a rat.

Hey, I've stolen things

in my life, too.

I've hustled.

But I've only hustled people

if somehow they deserved it.

Me? I've got music in my heart.

I've got love for it.

I seek it out, I find records,

I collect them,

I sell them to people

who have that same love inside.

It's a tender spot.

It's vulnerable.

It's a spot

that you think nobody's gonna

take advantage of you.

Then you go around

and you let that love

be known, you share it.

You share it with people

and you trust

that they won't violate you.

I didn't know

it was so important.

Benny:
That's basic moral code.

It should be in the fibers

of your body.

You tell me the story

about your dead grandfather,

you feed me

a delicious doughnut,

you tell me you like my shirt.

You build a mean trap

so I'd fall into it

like a dummy.

My grandfather really died.

Yeah, that makes it even worse,

using him to make some money?

Like I said, you're a rat.

I hope something happens

to you to make you grow up.

I'm filled with such disgust.

I love you.

As a person, I love you,

but I hate you for killing

everything that we had.

You made it so that we can't

ever be together again.

Do you know that?

I wasn't sure.

Janet:
You killed it.

Okay.

If you need tissue, there's

some on the table there.

It's okay to cry

in front of me, ray.

I am cryin'.

It doesn't look like it.

Looks like you're

holding back your emotions,

like you usually do.

Now get the hell out of here

before the woman shows up.

They're going to arrest her.

We were right,

the watch is important.

So, first of all, Darryl said

the husband's hand

and arm were injured

from falling after

the bullet to the head.

They assume

he was wearing the watch.

The widow claims

she was at a movie at 8:00,

the estimated time of death.

So, leaving the movie,

she turns on her phone

to find a text from her husband.

Evidently, it says,

"I love you. Sorry."

She calls the cops, rushes home,

finds him dead.

Can you figure it out?

Why is the text important?

- I don't know.

- The text was sent at 8:10.

His watch broke at 8:02.

So, if it broke when

he fell, when he died,

he couldn't have sent

a text at 8:
10, obviously.

She sent the text

after she shot him.

That's the idea.

So she figures out the mistake,

takes off the watch,

takes it to get it fixed,

thinking, "problem solved."

Oh, there she is.

All right.

What do you want?

Ma'am, we know

you have the watch.

Mrs. Krimsky:
Stop it!

Ma'am, we're gonna need to talk.

Really, I have nothing

to do with this.

- Claire:
Ow!

- You b*tch!

Claire:
Ow! No, no, no!

No, no, no, no!

- Mrs. Krimsky:
You b*tch!

- Claire:
Ow!

- Ow!

- B*tch!

- Let's go to the car.

- Okay, okay.

Phil:
You okay?

Yeah, um, it just

stings a little bit.

Hello.

Benny:
Hey, ray.

Where you at?

I'm in Janet's bathroom.

Why are you in Janet's bathroom?

Long story.

But we're talkin'.

Benny:
How's it going?

She's mad, as she should be.

Hey, we're gonna have a nice
