a pair of heels if you do.

- No more of the sneaker sh*t.

- Shut up, Heaven.

What? It's about time he

come up in the world.

I'm just lookin' out for him.

The final battle tonight,

legend versus legend.

Les Combs versus Juno!

Let's do it.

Legendary this

And a legendary that

Legendary here

And a legendary there

Legendary up, legendary down

Legend, legend, legend

Legendary this

And a legendary that

Legendary here

And a legendary there

Legendary this,

Legendary that

Legend, legend,

Where you go and get

I want you to stop

Word, word, word

All right b*tches, I'm out.

I gotta coin,

Annie counts the clock.

- I'll walk with you.

- Come on.

- Which way you walkin'?

- None, train.

Walk with you?

Okay.

Did you have a good night?

It was great.

I knew you'd like it.

- No big date tonight?

- Me?

Nah, no way.

I barely leave my house.

And what about you?

I'm not seein' anyone.

Too busy drawing?

What you always drawin'?

I don't know, just...

stuff.

And dating's not easy.

Everyone's a mental case.

You think?

Free Online Movies

Or they're flippin' tricks.

You didn't do that?

Nah.

I didn't think I could, either.

Don't.

You know,

Ebony's not doing that anymore.

- Really?

- Yeah.

That's why she's been

helpin' out with the program.

Joan helped her out.

- That's good.

- I think so.

I guess this is you.

Yeah.

I've wanted to do

that for a while.

Get home safe.

Girlfriend,

Tell me what you did

I don't have the time

To wonder who you kissed

I've been spending

My whole day

In a phased out haze

You say we feel out of touch,

But give some more time

- I'm back within a month

- F*ggot.

I know you

Don't like to wait

But this love is not a race

So take that watch

That's on your wrist

Hide it in a drawer

And don't let it exist

I will shine

Within your shade

Until you feel awake

It's no road that

I'd run without a curve

So baby would you come in

Close at the turn

And let a different love song

Pass your lips

Or we might suffer shipwreck

Oh. Yes!

Put 'em on, let's see.

Show me.

Yes.

You got it.

That's it.

Look at those legs,

darling.

You look good.

You look great.

Thanks.

Oh, God.

How much longer are

you gonna be in here?

A few more minutes.

You wanna share?

Not really, but I guess.

Do you think I look old?

No.

- How is it?

- How's what?

Sex.

Oh, it's alright,

it ain't that bad.

Really?

Some motherfuckers

pull up in their car,

and make you wanna take to

the hills, they so ugly.

But every now and then,

you get cute one.

They all different.

Sometimes they just

wanna talk, and honey,

that sh*t's the worst.

I've got enough

problems without tryin'

to figure out someone's 401.

You ever wanna stop?

Honey, who's gonna hire my ass?

I'm sure there's someone.

You missed a spot.

You know you're

beautiful, right?

When the night is dark

And you fall apart

Turn to me to hold onto

If you're all alone

Cannot find your home

I'm the light

That will guide you

When I'm lost

Can't find my path across

The one who leads me

All the way

Is right here next to me

I'd be so lost without you

Without you, without you

I'd be so lost without you

Without you, without you

And if you need a hand

I'm at your command

Not me and you,

It's us together

If you need a lift

The wind, it starts to shift

We don't worry the weather

When I'm lost,

Can't find my path across

The one who leads me

All the way

Is right here next to me

I'd be so lost without you

Without you, without you

I'd be so lost without you

Without you, without you

I'd be so lost without you

Without you, without you

Without you, without you

- I'd be so lost without you

- I'd be so lost without you

Aunt Rose.

Aunt Rose?

Aunt Rose.

You lied to me.

You've been lying all along,

pretending that you changed.

Come here.

I need you to join me

down here...

- Ow!

- And I want you to pray.

Oh! How da...

How dare you, how dare you!

Stop, stop, stop. Stop!

Ow, stop!

You lied to me!

You lied to me!

Don't you ever think

about coming back here again!

- Uh, is Joan here?

- Joan?

Joan, she runs

the program on Saturday.

Today's Wednesday,

Joan only come on Saturday.

Papi, are you okay?

Rose.

- Well, did you try his phone?

- He doesn't have it on him.

We get multiple reports

a day about runaways,

and most of the time they

show up within a few hours.

It's pouring rain out!

Look, if he's not back

by tomorrow, come in,

you can file a report.

I, I feel

That you cannot

See me standing here

You just wish that I

Would disappear

But I'm right beside you

No more hiding

I don't need your disdain

And I don't need

To explain myself

Goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye, darkness

After all this time

You never saw your

Heart reflected in mine

It was always here

It was always here

I said goodbye

Goodbye to lies

I said goodbye

Goodbye to ties

Shame and fear

And bullshit identity

Goodbye to twisted faces

Hateful places

I refuse to stay hid

Don't think

I won't undo the hurt on me

Goodbye, goodbye

Get it right quick

I'm not the one who's sick

No, baby

Know I'm moving on

Moving on

Moving on

Did you find him?

- Amara, I'm sure he'll be...

Don't talk to me.

The only reason why you

are still in this house

is to watch over that boy.

Let's go, okay.

Perks of living

with a dog in the city.

Nothing more humbling.

What kind is he?

Uh, Siberian Husky.

- Is he nice?

- Yeah.

I'm Mark.

- Ulysses.

- Cool name.

What are you doin' out here?

Uh, waiting for some friends.

You look like you've

been waiting for a while.

Come hang out with me

and Nelson for a bit.

Okay.

Nelson, relax.

Nelson!

He never listens to me.

- Nice place.

- Thanks.

- What do you do for work?

- Business.

What kind?

Doesn't matter.

I guess not.

Something to eat?

- Sure.

- Uh, leftover Indian sound good?

That's fine.

Place down the street makes

the best chicken jalfrezi.

Cheers.

You eat fast.

Mm.

Sorry.

It's all right,

you have a good appetite.

I could probably do

with less of one.

You want another beer?

No, I'm okay.

Dessert?

No, thank you.

No, just leave it.

Are you sure?

Cleaning lady comes tomorrow.

Are you cold dressed like that?

I'm warm enough.

Nobody would be warm in that.

Come on. I'll lend you a shirt.

I'm sure I have one that

could fit you somewhat.

Ex-girlfriend's.

You gonna try it on or what?

Wait.

You're very cute.

Thanks.

You probably get that a lot.

How much?

Excuse me?

How much?

That good enough for you?

I don't wanna do anything,

but you can.

Whatever you want, boss.

Come here.

- You know I gotta pee.

- But you always gotta pee.

- Oh, my God.

- What's it they call it?

I'm a lactone girl.

What the hell happened to you?

Hey.

You're a small, right?

Yeah? Yeah, I thought so.

I've got small.

Okay.

Sweetie, I know

it's not perfect,

but it'll have to do.

No, no, baby,

before you try it on,

you're gonna need

to take a shower.

You look feverish,
