By the time you're ready...

...there's not gonna be any party left.

Shut up and keep your shirt on.

Where's Mooch?

If you laugh, I'll cut you.

You... You look...

...really...

- Beautiful.

Yeah.

Oh, yeah,

don't eat with your hands.

And if someone says you have nice hair

or something, say "thank you. "

Sh*t, what do you think we are?

Uncouth?

You don't know people like this.

They do things like shake hands...

...with their best friends.

- Don't worry, Daryle.

- We got manners we ain't even used yet.

- I know.

I just don't want any accidents,

you know.

I've waited all my life

for this party.

Go home, dog. Don't you get it?

This is Daryle's big chance...

...and you don't even know

how to piss in a toilet. Go on. Get.

Okay. We're going in there now...

...and anybody

who doesn't act elegant...

...is a douche bag.

Go ahead.

Hello. Josh?

- Where is everybody?

- I think you got the wrong day.

- No, Monday at 3. It's Monday at 3.

- You know, I saw on TV once...

...that you're supposed

to be late to these kind of things.

I don't understand this.

I think I found something over here.

That's it.

- Look, they're eating with their hands.

- There's Josh.

- Hey. How are you doing?

- Hi.

- Fine, how are you?

- I'm good.

You know my friends.

- Jennie and Billy and Mooch and Nickie.

- Hi.

- Right.

- You have a really great place here.

- It's really nice.

- Thanks.

It must be convenient

having a pool so close to the ocean.

Yeah.

So why don't you relax,

slip into your suits, take a dip.

We didn't actually bring our suits,

so we'll just hang out.

Actually, we have the curse.

- All of you?

- Yeah. The whole group's down.

It's my own private hell, living

with them. Talk about cranky women.

Yeah.

So we'll just walk around and eat.

Maybe later

we'll pop a couple of Midol.

- Yeah, take some Midol.

- All right.

- Bye.

- Hi.

- So...

- Hi.

Nice pants.

- Where's the dip?

- All the dips are dancing.

Billy, put that back.

So, what are you gonna do in the fall?

I don't know. L...

I really haven't thought about it.

Well, I want you to know,

I think you're really different.

I can work really hard

to be the same.

Jennie, Billy,

are you guys leaving early?

Yeah, this party's putting me to sleep.

I wanna find some action.

I really appreciate you coming.

And thanks for being so well-behaved.

Billy.

Look at all these things.

Did you shoot that?

Oh, thank you.

Josh. Ow.

Josh, wait a minute. Ow!

You're pulling my hair.

- Josh, I thought you liked me.

- I do.

- What do you think I'm doing?

- No, I just think...

- Will you shut up for five minutes?

- No, I really...

- Two minutes. Just two minutes.

- Josh, what do you want?

You want me just to lay here

and be quiet while you ball me?

- Yes.

- Oh, I can't believe this.

You're an a**hole.

Hi.

Here.

You like it?

It's like an orange creature or something.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

- Thanks.

- So how come...

...I don't see you in there with a guy?

So, what are you, chopped meat?

No... I just meant that...

You know what I meant.

You know, I like this.

If we never go back home again,

it won't make much difference to me.

Yeah.

Yeah, I know what you mean.

So, what's your story, Mooch?

I ain't got no story.

I'm just what you see.

So...

So, um, what do you see?

Well...

...I see someone

that's kind of lonely and lost...

...and a little sad.

- Never mind.

- And I like that a lot.

- Get out of here.

- No, I'm serious. I'm not kidding.

All right, so you're serious.

So I'm happy for you.

Well, I'm... I'm really sorry.

Do that again.

Hey, pal.

You want some of that action...

...the line forms behind me.

You know what I mean?

Yeah, that's my girlfriend

you're talking about.

Hey, hey, hey. I think you need to get

out of here. Go on, get him out of here.

Daryle!

Jennie.

Hmm?

So where was Falcon tonight?

How should I know?

Sorry.

Mooch.

- What?

- Get up. Get up.

- What?

- Did you hear that?

- That's the dog.

- No, listen. Listen.

I can't see a damn thing.

Hey!

God.

Ow!

- Mooch.

- I got him. Sh*t.

- Do you mind?

- Oh, get off, man.

Jesus.

Frankie?

Hi.

What did you fuzz-mouth b*tches

do to him?

Yeah, that'll be the day,

when these two turds can do this to me.

- It was them bouncers.

- Wait. That was you?

- What were you trying to do?

- To keep you...

...from humiliating yourself.

- What are you talking about?

I'm talking about that you guys

are nothing but meat up there.

My girl don't tease pud

for no money. I'm taking you home.

Look, Frankie. I'm not teasing

anybody's anything, Frankie.

- Come on. Let's go.

- Quit it.

- Let's go.

- Whoa, Frankie, man.

You're all wired,

you're all pumped up.

You're not thinking straight.

No, really. Listen.

We're doing a job down here,

and if Daryle leaves, we're out of a job.

- I'm crying for you, Jennie.

- All right, lose the violent stuff, all right?

Calm down and think.

There's five of us and one of you.

I'm really shaking.

You see me shaking?

You never met Nickie. I don't wanna

tell you how crazy he can get.

Okay, wait.

Look, let's just go outside.

We can talk and everybody else

can get some sleep. Okay?

By the way, Bunny Slotz knows

you grabbed his van...

...and he's bopping everybody in town

trying to find out where you are.

Good night.

What is he talking about?

Bunny's the scumbucket

that dunked our truck.

I don't believe you, man.

That's Bunny Slotz's van?

The van we came up here in? The van

you said you borrowed from a friend?

- Why worry you with any minor details?

- I don't believe you.

This is great. I guess we can expect

to be arrested any minute now.

Bunny don't mess with the cops.

He takes his own revenge.

- That sounds like fun.

- Look, would you stop worrying.

How the hell is he gonna find us

way the hell out here in the boondocks?

- What's the matter with you?

- I can't find my dog.

What?

I can't find my dog.

I guess I really hurt his feelings.

I saw Frankie outside.

Him and Daryle are starting to foam

all over the sand.

Hi.

Frankie and I wanna take the van.

Can I have the keys? Please?

Thank you.

I think I'm in love all over again.

Bye.

Bye, Nickie.

Is someone gonna turn the lights out

or what?

- Wanna go to breakfast?

No.

We're going to the beach.

You wanna come?

No.

Hey, we're going out to eat.

Do you wanna come?

- Is that a no?

Yes!

Martin?

Hey, Martin.

Hey, Martin.

- Martin, you up there?

- Hello.

- Hi.

- Lost?

No, I'm looking for Martin.

- Oh. Are you a friend of his?

Yeah.

Are you?

Sometimes.

That's a nice shirt.

Listen, if Martin's not here,

maybe I'll just leave.

Yeah, maybe you should.

You were right, babes. They were.

They were in the bedroom all the time.

- Hi, Jennie.

- Hi.

Well, Martin, aren't you

gonna introduce us?

Sorry, yeah, this is Jennie Lee.

Jennie, Tina.

Jennie's with the band.

She's with the band. That's cute.

I gotta go.
