I always wanted to go to California.

- Really?

- Yes.

- It's nice there.

- Is it?

I thought it would be.

- Is your name Violet?

- Yes, it is.

- Who made the necklace?

- I made it.

You think you'd want to come with me?

I don't even know you.

Please?

Please?

Please come with me.

I like your face.

- Okay, you have to get your things.

- Okay.

Five minutes.

Okay.

Hey, Violet.

Come here.

I like you a whole lot.

I like you, too.

- Okay, hurry up.

- I will.

Hi, Mrs. Lemon? My name is Bud.

I'm a friend of Daisy's.

I used to live next door here,

a long time ago.

Who are you?

I'm Bud Clay. I grew up next door.

I used to live right next door.

My father was David Clay.

My mother was Norma Clay.

- You want to come in?

- Sure.

- Is that Daisy's bunny?

- Yes.

That's her bunny.

I haven't heard from her. She hasn't called.

I don't know why she hasn't called.

I wish I knew why.

The bunny looks so small still.

She's had that bunny rabbit a long time.

That's the cutest bunny.

Where do you live now?

I live in Los Angeles.

Daisy and I lived together in Los Angeles.

We have a small house and...

- Do you have any children?

- No, we haven't had children.

- No?

- No.

We were going to have a baby.

And what happened?

I don't know.

I don't know what happened.

Who are you?

I don't remember you.

- You don't remember me?

- No, I don't.

I grew up next door. I remember you.

I lived right next door.

I'm Daisy's friend from childhood.

And then we lived together in California.

You visited us once. Do you remember

when you came to California to visit us?

Maybe. It's been such a long time.

I don't remember.

But maybe I did visit, once or twice.

I used to play in the backyard all the time.

We had a pool at my house,

but it wasn't nice.

- I would go in your pool with Daisy.

- With Daisy?

Yes, she would let me swim in your pool.

We would go in there all the time.

- Your daughter liked swimming.

- Yes.

- She liked it a lot.

- Yes.

Yes.

I have to get going now.

These are the bunnies?

Are these adult bunnies?

Yes, pretty much. They're almost full-grown.

How old is this bunny?

Around one, two months.

What's the longest a bunny can live?

For five to six years.

- Five or six years?

- Yes.

- That's the most they can live?

- Yes.

Even if you feed it special food

or something?

No, they won't live more than

five or six years.

- All bunnies? Even this kind here?

- Yes.

Okay. Thanks.

Fifty-one!

Fifty-one?

You okay?

- Hi, how you doing?

- Hi.

You looking for a date?

- No, thanks.

- Okay.

- Do you want a date?

- No, sorry.

- You sure?

- I'm sure. Sorry.

Would you like to go out?

- No, I'm just driving around.

- Okay.

You change your mind?

- You look pretty.

- Thank you.

- I like your necklace.

- Thanks.

That's your name? Rose?

- That's a nice name.

- Thank you.

I wasn't really driving...

I wasn't driving around

looking for anything like that.

No? Well, you found me.

You want to just have lunch with me?

That'd be nice,

but I need to make my money.

What?

Come on, it's time to go.

Here.

Stefano!

Okay.

That's fine.

Let's go.

Open the computer.

- Where did you say you're from?

- Laroux.

Stefano?

Yes, sir?

- Can I get some earplugs, man?

- Yeah.

Come on. Roll it out.

Are you going to be

driving up to the track tonight?

I think I'm going to stay in LA tonight.

I'll go in the morning.

Daisy!

No one's there!

Daisy!

Hello. I'm in Room 325.

I might be getting a call soon.

I just wanted you to know

that if somebody calls...

to put the call through.

And she might just come by...

so if somebody named Daisy

comes to the front desk looking for me...

I'm Bud Clay.

You can let her come right up to the room.

Daisy.

Okay.

Bye. Thanks.

Hi, Bud.

I got your note.

I have to use the bathroom.

Can I hug you, Bud?

Can I sit on your lap?

Can I touch you?

You don't want to touch me anymore?

Don't you like me anymore, Bud?

I like you.

Can I hug you?

Remember how, after dinner,

when you were done eating...

you'd always turn sideways in your chair

and pat your thighs...

and I would come and sit on your lap?

You would let me sit there for a long time

and we would kiss.

Remember, Bud?

Please, can I hug you?

Okay.

Missed you. Missed you so much.

I'm thirsty. I'm gonna get a glass of water.

You want some?

No.

I'm sorry. Don't look at me like that.

I know I look ugly.

I'm sorry.

I know I look terrible.

I didn't have time to fix myself

before I came over.

I know we haven't seen each other

in such a long time.

I'm sorry I look so bad.

I have to use the bathroom again.

I drank a lot of water before I came here.

I have to take my antibiotics,

but it's for my allergies.

I'm sorry, but I guess

I'm just a little nervous.

Should I go to the store

and get us something to drink?

- Do you remember the last time I saw you?

- Yes.

I don't drink anymore.

I don't drink at all anymore.

That's great, Bud.

I keep a photo of us in my purse.

I look at it every single day.

Do you want to see it?

Remember, my cousin took it...

in front of our house on Bay Street,

the day we moved in?

We're kissing in it. You want to see it?

Isn't it nice, Bud?

It was a long time ago.

I used to love kissing you...

all over your mouth.

I love the way you taste.

You're my favorite person

in the whole world, Bud.

I never want to kiss anybody else.

- Really, Bud.

- It's not true.

I did. I loved kissing you.

I loved your mouth. I loved the way it tasted.

It's not true.

- I never want to kiss anybody else.

- That's not true.

It is.

You kissed other boys.

Do you remember the time you bought me

the really big chocolate bunny?

It was so big. I ate it in like an hour

and got really sick and threw up.

You kissed me anyway.

I remember.

You used to really like me.

I still like you.

I wish you liked me again...

like before.

When you liked me the most.

I liked you the most my whole life.

You're the only person I liked.

- Tell me you love me.

- No.

I missed you so much.

It hurts me when I don't see you

for such a long time.

I just want to hug you. Come here.

No.

I love you so much.

I always loved holding you.

- That's not true.

- Yes, it is.

Kiss me, Bud.

Don't leave.

I missed you so much.

I love you.

Come on, won't you kiss me? Please?

I missed you.

I missed you a lot.

Take off your shirt.

But it's so bright in here.

I want to see your body.

Can we turn off the light? Please?

Can we go under the covers?

You only do this to me?

You only suck my cock, baby?

You don't do it with anybody else?

You don't think about doing it

with anybody else?

You like doing it?

You won't suck anybody else?

Never?

Never again?

You promise?

You won't f*** anybody else?
