- Better?

- How is it?

- It's nice and greasy.

How's yours?

- I've had better here.

- Have you been here before?

- Rule number one.

- Right.

Do not ask you anything.

So why the Grand Canyon?

- What did I just say?

- Well it's the reason

for the whole trip,

I just want a clue.

- A lot of people go

to the Grand Canyon.

- Well I would wanna go because

it is huge and beautiful.

Mother nature leaving

her mark you know,

that's why I'd go.

- Well I've never been,

good reason to go.

Let's talk more about you.

- So what about me?

- Where you from?

- Kansas City.

Right?

- Yep.

You ran away from your

bible beating parents

when you were 16.

- That's pretty close actually.

- Really?

- Mhm.

What about you?

Where are you from or do

I not get to know that?

- I'm originally from New York,

came out to San

Francisco, met you.

Here we are.

- You just have the

whole thing figured out.

So.

We met at a bar,

right?

Can you paint that

picture for me.

- I was sitting in the corner

and you saw me.

- And who made the first move?

- Well you sat next to me.

- Like.

Like this?

And what did I say that

turned you on to me?

- You said, "You got a light?"

- Oh my god, you are so cheesy.

I think you can do

better than that.

- I'm paying you, you should

show a little more respect.

- Okay you're right, okay.

You're right, I'm sorry.

That was

stupid, I'm.

I'm gonna piss.

Got a light?

- No, no I don't, I don't smoke.

- Oh.

Well that's,

that is good.

It's a terrible habit.

The good news is

that I in fact.

I already had one.

I just wanted to flirt with you.

I'm Brandon.

- Jonathan.

- We are gonna

fall madly in love.

Jonathan, we are.

I can tell.

Already.

- Already, huh?

- Mhm.

Well this is a step

down from last night.

Oooh, looky here.

They have a pool.

We should go for

a dip right now.

Right now.

(upbeat funk music)

Tell me now where

you got around to

Tell me now where

you got around to

When it all comes

Crashing down on you

You gotta roll

You better move

Cover your tracks on now

They'll be on you soon

When it all comes

Crashing down on you

When it call comes

crashing down on you

There ain't no love here

No one to use

There ain't no love here,

girl

No more excuse

When it call comes

Crashing down on you

When it all comes

Crashing down on you

- Ah, yeah.

- No.

We gotta be somewhere tonight.

- You're in charge.

- Morning.

- Where are my clothes?

- I packed them.

Wear those instead.

- These are a little old.

Don't you think?

Okay.

Will I get my clothes back?

- Of course, they

were just dirty.

Move that way just a little bit.

Rain comes in through

the cracks in the roof

And there I am still

sitting next to you my love

This is where I've

ended up my love

This where I've ended up

- [Jonathan] That's it.

Move your head towards me.

- Hard smile.

- No, put that down.

- Yes.

- [Jonathan] Give me the camera.

Stop.

All I have is all for you

It's not a lot

But it'll do

My love this where

I've ended my love

This is where I've ended up

- Jesus.

Christ.

F*** my feet.

God, okay, alright.

These

boots are killing me.

Wish you had a size bigger.

What is it?

- [Jonathan] Nothing.

- What's wrong?

I lost you.

You retreated into

that head of yours,

you do that sometimes,

you know that?

I'm gonna go for a smoke.

- Yeah.

Hey.

You wanna hop in?

- No, I'm just dropping my bag.

- Okay.

It needs to be cleaned up.

But I.

Hey.

Can't sleep?

- Could ask you the same thing.

- This helps.

- Does it?

It's bad for you.

- So are a lot of things.

Give it a shot.

Come on.

Well you tried.

- [Jonathan] I'm too

old to pick up smoking.

- That's bullshit.

You're never too old

to try something new.

We should

go to bed.

Dad.

Come on.

- [Jonathan] Take a

step to your right.

Your other right.

That's a little too far.

- Who cares?

Okay.

I'm smiling.

(photo snapping)

This place looks nice.

Like,

table cloth nice.

- Hey.

- This is f***in' sexy.

Oh yeah.

It fits great.

Do I get to keep this?

So many choices.

- [Waiter] You

decided, gentlemen?

- Yes, I'll have

ribeye, medium-rare.

House salad, no dressing.

- [Waiter] And you sir?

- He'll have the

prime rib medium.

Mash potatoes.

Would also like a bottle of the

Rosemont Cabernet

Sauvignon, please.

- [Waiter] I'll put

this in for you guys.

- Thank you.

- I was gonna order

the chicken, actually.

- Oh you'll love the prime rib.

- Sure I will.

- Come on, lighten up, Brandon.

Doesn't this place

remind you of that

dinner we had with

Jean and David?

- Who?

Who, Jean and David?

I'm sorry, I don't

know a Jean or David.

- They're friends of ours.

- Can you

do me a solid and

just drop this whole

role play thing just for

tonight, just for the meal.

That'd be so great.

- [Waiter] I'm sorry,

sir, you ordered

the Rosemont Cabernet Sauvignon?

- Yes.

- I'm sorry to say

we don't carry that

particular wine anymore.

- [Jonathan] You don't?

- [Waiter] No my manager

tells me we haven't

carried it in sometime.

- I've had it here before,

could you check again please?

- [Waiter] I'm sorry

we don't have it.

But I can recommend

a nice bottle of--

- Okay this is ridiculous,

is your manager here?

I wanna talk to your manager.

- Yes, let me find her.

- No, hey wait.

I like the sound

of the other wine.

Let's do that, let's

do the other wine,

that sounds great

to me, thank you.

That's perfect, he'll love that.

- What are you doing?

- Dude they don't have

it, so you gotta move on.

- Don't call me

dude, I'm paying you.

- You're paying me?

Oh so that gives you the

right to be a f***ing a**hole?

- [Waiter] Where are you

two visiting us from?

- We are from New York.

- [Waiter] What brings

you two out here?

- He's a fashion photographer,

I'm his assistant,

we're shooting nearby.

- [Waiter] Oh where?

- The dinosaurs up the way,

it's a cover for Vogue.

- [Waiter] Terrific,

nice little local gem.

- Yeah, oh yeah.

- [Waiter] Have I

seen your work before?

- I don't know.

Coffee table books?

He's got a bunch of them,

there's Cosmo Magazine,

so if you read that.

- I'd like to apologize

again about the wine, sir.

- Who the f*** do

you think you are?

- You got to lay down your

ground rules now it's my turn.

- I hired you for--

- My rules are that I wanna

- I was very explicit

- some f***ing fun.

- about the fact

that I was in charge.

- Can you let me have

fun for one night?

Jesus Christ, keep your

f***in' hands to yourself.

- Go.

Just go.

The doors behind you, go.

Go.

- Okay.

I'm gonna do that 'cause

none of your money is

worth this weirdness.

Enjoy your wine.

- Oh.

Could we get another

bottle of wine, please?

- [Waiter] Of course, the same?

- Sure.

- Okay.

Here's the deal, I'm

gonna finish this meal.

And then you

are going to pay me.

And then you'll never

have to see me again

since this clearly isn't

working out for you.
