Sunshine Cleaning Page #4

They look pretty damn good.

Shove them in there.

How many boxes we got?

See? That's the difference

between an ordinary person

and a person

with business acumen.

That's a good word for you to remember,

business acumen.

We're gonna be rich, pal.

We're gonna make some money grow

because that's the smart way.

It's capital, and you don't spend that.

You invest it.

So that way we can get the new SP250

and have money left over.

What are you talking about?

The binoculars Grandpa's getting me

for my birthday.

What binoculars Grandpa's

getting you for your birthday?

These binoculars.

They've got some internal

stabilizer thing. It's electronic.

So that way if you're on a speedboat

or something, it won't matter.

And when it's really cold outside,

they won't freeze, so...

Honey, honey, come here.

Listen to me.

Sometimes Grandpa

promises things

and he really wants

to make it happen, you know?

No, he's really gonna get them.

He has a plan.

- He has a plan?

- Mm-hmm.

- Oh, no.

- Oh, yeah.

Okay, if you say so.

Squeeze that for me.

Again.

Don't be nervous.

People do this all the time.

I'm not nervous. I'm fine.

Oh, that's the needle?

That's a f***ing cocktail straw.

Trust me. I'm really good at this.

Okay.

Wasn't that fun?

I think you might have oversold it.

There's a thing tonight.

oh, never mind.

- What?

- No, it's nothing.

It's just my friend-

- What is it?

- You wouldn't like it.

I might like it.

I knew you wouldn't have

any fun here.

No, I'm having a good time.

It's okay.

Oh, no, thanks.

It's just lamb's breath. It's mellow.

Yeah, thanks.

Straight edge?

No, I'm just-

What?

You'll just think it's weird.

What? No, I like weird stuff.

Okay.

Well, sometimes I think that

when you get high or when you drink,

- When you alter your consciousness-

- You don't drink either?

No. I just think that when you do

stuff like that,

it weakens you psychically,

like it creates cracks

and then bad stuff

can seep into those cracks

and maybe never go away.

That's so weird.

Sorry.

You should probably just

tell people you're a Mormon.

Maybe.

Your boyfriend's winning

the necklace game.

He's not really my boyfriend.

You just tickle my neck a little bit.

I'm totally gonna win.

You still have your whole necklace.

I like the white ones.

I'm gonna try a white one.

It's pretty good.

I need some beer.

- What are you doing?

- This is Cary Fleming live at the scene

at Wyoming Indian School.

Tragedy struck today

when an out-of-control driver

crashed into this autoshop

killing one employee.

The driver of the automobile...

apparently suffered a heart attack

at the wheel

- and is in critical condition.

- Hello.

- Unbelievable.

- Yeah, I'm watching it now.

Okay. All right.

Okay.

Dude, get off.

The guy's driving down here

and has a heart attack,

comes right through the front window

at a high rate of speed,

and hits one of the employees

in here.

The poor guy's in about five pieces

and there's quite a bit of blood.

You guys are BBP-certified, right?

We adhere to all proper procedures

when handling

potentially hazardous situations.

We're very professional.

- I thought you went to that thing.

- I did. I'm not done yet.

It's fine, trust me. If you could get

the Wet Vac and the Burnbox...

Are you guys all finished up in there?

Yeah.

Great, then I can handle it

from here, can't I?

What's a "bastard"?

Jeremy told me I was a bastard.

So what's a "bastard"?

It just means your mom wasn't married

when she had you.

It's no big deal.

You know, in a couple of years

you're gonna find

it's a free pass to cool, all right?

You'll probably start a band

called Bastard Son,

use it to impress the chicks.

The whole bastard thing

is working for you.

You're the coolest bastard I know.

- Really?

- Yeah.

Hello. Sunshine Cleaning.

Of course.

Okay, we got it.

No, thank you.

All right, goodbye.

What was that?

A suicide.

It's a good thing.

Oh, man.

Okay.

Stay in the van, okay?

If you get thirsty, there's some soda

in the blue cooler, okay, sweetie?

Okay.

Hi. Mrs. Davis?

Yes.

We're the cleaning crew.

Yes, I wanted to give you the keys.

Okay.

In the den

where my husband-

I had bread.

And when I-

Do you need me to show you?

Oh, no no no.

We can find it.

Okay, that's good then.

My son-in-law is coming

to take me to lunch

at the Howard Johnson's.

They have such nice rolls

at the Howard Johnson's.

Um...

Mrs. Davis.

Mrs. Davis,

would you like me to sit with you

for a little while?

Yes, dear.

I believe I would.

Okay.

Bye.

Is she okay?

Yeah, she'll be okay.

Why is that lady so sad?

Well, her husband died

and she misses him.

Maybe we could let her

use our CB.

And then she could talk to him.

Tengo mariscos para ustedes

at a very good,

very very good price.

Cien dolares para usted y...

I can give you a deal.

Smell these shrimp.

Take a whiff of these shrimp.

Yeah, it's good.

- Oh, no.

- Por que no?

No no no.

No no, digame.

- Hello.

- Hey, it's me.

Norah, is that you?

Yeah.

Have you ever been trestling?

So when you're at the crime scenes,

are the bodies still there?

No, the bodies are gone.

But it's weird, you know,

'cause we're, like,

connected to them

in a strangely intimate way.

And, I don't know,

I guess it's weird.

I have seen a dead body once, though.

Really?

My mom.

She was in a Movie of the Week once,

you know.

- Really?

- Yeah.

There was this bunch

of Hollywood people

and they were filming

in Old Town.

And they saw my mom

and they just thought

she was beautiful

and talented,

'cause they gave her a speaking part.

Oh, yeah?

- Do you want to hear it?

- Mm-hmm.

"I recommend the pecan pie."

"I recommend

the pecan pie."

Yeah, that was her line.

That was it.

That's pretty cool.

It was on TV and everything.

Me and Rose didn't see it.

But Rose said that Mom

talked about it all the time.

I don't remember.

I don't remember her much at all.

But I have a box of her stuff.

Um...

it's just things that she touched

and little things.

How did she die?

It was a do-it-yourself kind of thing.

I think the train's coming.

Yeah.

Yeah. Yes, it is.

Oh, yeah, okay.

So this is where we climb

up to that girder.

What was I before I was born?

What happens when we die?

I'm not climbing up there.

Come on, this is trestling.

This is what it's all about.

It's like this big pissed-off God

and he's right up in your face,

like, screaming at you, you know?

He's so close,

you can smell the metal on his breath.

If you already live in heaven,

where do you go when you die?

Whoo!

Whoo!

Oscar:
Can you see

everything down here?

Rose.

Hey, beautiful.

Hi.

I started thinking that you were

on a date or something.

I was-

I got you something.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

It's for your business cards.

You put your cards in there

and, I don't know, impress people.

It's beautiful.

You don't like it?

Look, this thing...
