Singles Page #2

Like, we're huge in Europe right now.

We've got records...

A big record just broke in Belgium.

A song like 'Touch Me, I'm Dick'

is about what?

I think 'Touch Me, I'm Dick' in essence

speaks for itself, you know.

I think...

...that's basically what the song is...

...about, you know.

I think a lot of people might think it's

actually about, you know...

...my name is Dick and you can touch me

but I think...

...it can be seen either way.

Excuse me?

- Hello.

- Hi.

Want to meet up later?

Where?

- Anywhere you're going.

- Anywhere you're going.

We're going home.

- We're going home.

- See you!

Anywhere you're going.

Always get their numbers.

Tonight I got 20 numbers.

Twenty numbers.

You got numbers of 20 girls

you will never call, never date...

...never see in the daylight.

20 numbers that exist

only to make you feeI...

...like a guy who can get 20 numbers.

Watch the volume!

Sorry. Tinnitus.

Club disease.

You kids are all going to be deaf.

This is my night.

- What?

- Look.

Linda, don't look over.

I need another double latte,

no cream, skim milk, decaf.

I'm going to use that video date

you got me last Christmas.

It was a joke.

I know.

You think it's something

desperate people do.

You're wrong!

'Expect the Best' is the best

video dating in the country.

Debbie Hunt.

Call me before I go to Cabo.

- Your medication, Miss Hunt.

- Thank you.

You make the greatest coffee.

I can ask Steve.

I'll call you back.

The I-90 construction's

way behind schedule...

...and the Times wants to know why

there's gridlock on the I-5.

Tell them it's God's way of saying,

'Listen to the radio. '

Did you read my proposaI?

- What'd you think?

- I liked it.

You'll have to move it past Stu.

After lunch.

Okay. After lunch.

- Ted, what's up?

- Making music with my fingers.

And what a beautifuI sound it is.

Linda Powell, Steve Dunne.

Yeah, I met you 61 hours ago.

That was me.

Listen, want to get some dinner?

Busy.

How about some lunch?

Have a lunch. Coffee?

Water?

How about some water?

I'll meet you where you're having lunch

and we'll have some...

...water.

I think this whole decade

will have to be about cleaning up.

Our project spent last year

studying the Alaskan Exxon spill.

And now with...

...all the Exxon kickbacks and...

...things...

God, yes!

The worst!

I'm trying to put together

a group in June...

...to study the whole coast.

But I'm having a little trouble

getting a boat.

I think it will work out fine.

What?

There's just no privacy anymore.

I thought he was going to swallow her.

- Me too.

- My God!

Do you know what time it is?

-3:
30.

- I'm so late!

- I'm glad your lunch date didn't show up.

- Me too.

- Did you really have a lunch date?

- No.

- So you want to-

- I'm getting over somebody.

- I really think it's a bad time.

- Maybe I'II- Okay.

Here's my car.

Let me give you a ride back to work.

Thanks.

Thanks.

I really like your take

on the supertrain.

It's ambitious.

If it were up to me...

She opened my car door button.

Unmistakable sign.

I like this girl.

Got to handle this one really well.

The thing I like best about you...

...is that you really listen to me.

You're a realist-slash-dreamer.

Thanks.

I get so pissed off

when I think about it.

That some jerk could

trash the Mona Lisa...

...or an ocean...

...or someone's life!

Who are your neighbors?

That's Bailey, right there.

He's a maitre d'.

He keeps us all in free meals.

On the corner there...

...that's Debbie Hunt.

She actually consumes men

instead of food.

And that is Cliff.

He delivers flowers, has four jobs...

...works in the coffee shop

around the corner.

Upstairs is Janet Livermore.

She works there too.

She's saving up for architecture schooI.

Cliff and Janet...

That's it.

You sound like me

talking about my family.

Want to go upstairs

while your stuff is drying?

That's a good picture of you.

Let me ask you a question.

Do you think about traffic, ever?

Because I do.

Constantly. Traffic is caused

by the single-car driver.

900,000 single people get

in their cars every morning...

...they drive to work and they wonder

why there's gridlock.

But if you had a train...

...a supertrain, you give the people

a reason to get out of their cars.

You give them great coffee,

great music...

...they will park and ride.

I know they will.

I still love my car, though.

The Sonics.

They got a good team this year.

Good thing they traded Xavier McDanieI.

What is he?

- A boxer or a basketball player?

- You dare to rip the X-man.

'IKiss at the HoteI De Ville. '

You have this too. I have this.

And albums.

I miss albums.

- I was a DJ in college.

- Really?

That's why I still have records.

Any boyfriends?

You don't want to know.

I've had bad luck.

But there was this one guy.

Rich.

All my girlfriends loved him.

All that stuff I told you about

the money I inherited?

I made that up.

Plus, I got back together

with Lynn last night...

...so you probably want

to go ahead and freak out.

It was like a professionaI hit.

I didn't want to get close

to anybody for a long time.

And then I-

- I'm talking too much.

- No, go ahead.

I thought for sure I'd

meet someone in college, you know?

A perfect combination of

MeI Gibson and Holden Caulfield.

And the SexuaI Revolution would

just sweep us both away.

I was a semester too late.

Condoms.

They're free!

It's okay to loathe these people.

Really?

There is so much life in you.

And so much...

...emotionaI larceny in these others.

I'm Andy.

I'm Linda.

'EmotionaI larceny'?

He said passion didn't matter

as much as comfort and stability.

- That's bullshit.

- No kidding!

Sorry.

It's cooI.

We lived together for 2 years.

We're still friends but-

I did the same thing.

It's like one day...

...one of you goes for groceries

and never comes back.

Everyone I know

wants everything to be easy.

I know.

Why'd I have to meet you in a club?

I don't know.

I love this song.

My clothes!

Is this you?

This gas-guzzling monster is you?

The environmentalist?

- I inherited it from my dad.

- I'm not sure how I feeI about that.

Let's maybe do something

this weekend or-

Okay.

- I'll call you.

- Don't forget.

I won't.

Good night.

Listen, next time, why don't you...

...park underground.

I should go.

I was just...

...nowhere near your neighborhood.

Burglar.

Burglar.

Neighbors!

It's Andy, calling to

make sure you're okay.

- She's okay.

- I thought about the talk we had.

I think you should trust him.

Although I think...

...he's putting on the moves.

I'm a guy.

I know these things.

I don't like that I know them

but I know them.

And I like that he's a Steve.

But be careful.

If he doesn't treat you right...

...I'll kick his ass.

Can you wait?

Just a little longer.

Whenever! Whenever!

You're amazing.

I feeI like I'm being pulled inside you.

Are we being too loud?

What are you thinking...
