The Nines
sub2srt by (Yeolno)
You sell crack?
No, it's cool. I'm only a cop on TV.
How much... right on.
Is this crack?
You know how to do it?
Yes. Yes, hello.
I'm having a medical situation.
Yeah, okay,
I don't have a belly button.
I do not have a belly button
where I should on my belly,
and I'm concerned
because I don't know if that's...
Can a person live
without a belly button?
'Cause if you think about it,
you're born with one...
and if you don't have one
you're unborn,
and it's really hazy
whether you're alive or not.
I guess I'm wondering...
...am I alive?
Or what if I'm God?
I don't think I need an ambulance,
but I should probably
go to the hospital.
Yeah, I should.
Like you've never done worse!
Okay, yes, he totaled a car,
but it was
an environmentally friendly car.
Why doesn't that
get reported?
He was heartbroken, betrayed.
You say you understand,
but you don't... you can't.
You're like a big, giant Vulcan.
He's coming.
I'll call you later.
Hi. Margaret.
I work for Lola.
- Gary.
- I know.
We need to go out the back.
- Are there reporters out front?
- A few.
Not Hugh Grant level,
When he broke into that family's house
and slept in the kid's bed.
I handled episodes two
through four for Robert,
so this sort of thing
is my specialty.
Okay, just so it's said,
this house is flammable.
I didn't mean
to burn down my house.
Yeah, and I didn't mean to eat my way
into a ten-year shame spiral,
but I did, and it's healthier
to acknowledge it.
So, this flammable house
belongs to one of Lola's
other fabulous clients,
who is currently shooting
a pilot in Toronto.
- An actor?
- Writer.
So, for the next six weeks,
su casa es su casa.
I say feel free to wear his clothes.
He'll probably get
a sick thrill out of it.
The gays.
He has dogs.
Yeah, they're away at summer camp.
Now, try the bed.
It's fine.
- Comfortable?
- Sure.
Look, Gary, I know this
has been crazy and stressful.
I want you to feel
safe and comfortable.
- I do.
- I'm a fan of yours, you know.
Your number-one fan!
But if you f*** this up,
I will smash your ankles
with a sledgehammer.
And that wouldn't be comfortable
for either one of us.
Nine dogs ran through the field.
The koala sits in the tree.
It's computer voice-recognition.
you any time, day or night.
If you don't pick up
within five rings,
the police come
and haul your ass off.
What if I'm not here?
That's why they call it
"house arrest."
You stay inside your house.
He can take direction,
I promise.
to check up on you.
I should be
the only person coming by...
no pals, no buddies,
no heroin dealers.
I don't do heroin.
Yeah, crack is classy.
And I'm not buying you porn.
There's spray-per-view
on cable.
Great, 'cause I really
wasn't concerned
about my career,
family, or future.
- I just wanted to jerk off.
- Let me see your phone.
Come on, all my numbers
are in there.
Dial ten digits at random.
Whoever answers will be better
than the people on that phone.
You have my cell number,
you have delivery menus.
You're fine, right?
Bad idea.
Be good!
Keep it.
Someone was trying
to destroy the evidence.
Someone failed.
Once we get these samples
back to the crime lab...
we'll know
who the real killer is.
Somebody there?
Hello!
Hello?
Yes.
Nine leopards
ran through the jungle.
I bought two cakes
at the store.
The house is haunted.
There's a zeitgeist
or some...
Poltergeist, and no.
Maybe they were rats.
L.A.'s teeming with rats.
They live in the palm trees.
Maybe.
Okay, you know,
I'm a licensed psychotherapist.
Really?
No, I'm a publicist.
My job is what
other people think of you,
not what you think of yourself,
so pull your sh*t together.
I am this close to getting
Christine Walsh to do
your piece in Parade.
Parade? I f***ing hate Parade.
Everybody hates Parade,
but the people that watch Crim9 Lab
love their Marilyn Vos Savant.
One heartfelt act of contrition,
and maybe the show writer
won't kill off your character
between seasons.
I swear to God,
if you go bat-sh*t on me...
I'm not crazy.
Exactly. Exactly.
Sorry! I'm sorry.
Over here, to your left.
Right. Sorry, right.
I was practicing my putting,
if you can believe that.
Not really.
Okay, maybe I was
just looking for a way
to meet my infamous neighbor.
You see, I'm under house arrest too.
What'd you do?
I had sex with my husband.
That's awful.
Nine months later,
I had Jaden.
That's her over there.
She's a cutie.
She's sleeping for another...
Seventeen minutes.
She likes to keep to a schedule.
She seems really boring.
She is.
You're rich.
Shouldn't you have
a nanny from Ecuador?
I'm Canadian.
Can't work in the U.S.
Plus, I want to keep
this air of moral superiority
by doing everything myself.
Very Canadian.
Thanks.
Jaden goes down again
around 2:
30.Maybe I could stop by?
I'm pretty sure I'll be here.
It's a date.
Is it?
- I'm Sarah, by the way.
- Gary.
Yeah, I know.
"The best of all possible worlds."
Okay.
Voltaire, Candide.
Are you actually reading it?
I thought I was.
Sorry I bailed.
Jaden had a fever.
How boring of her.
Housewarming gift!
Demon liquor.
And the best part is I can drink it.
I pumped before I came.
So did I.
It's hard to prove
that I was only trying
to burn my ex-girlfriend's stuff
and not the entire house.
Yeah, fire's tricky that way.
Yeah. How 'bout you?
Any history of arson?
Strangely enough...
I knew it. I could see
that little spark.
Well, it wasn't arson, probably.
When I was a little girl,
our house caught on fire.
Oh, sh*t.
on my father's face
as he gathered me up
in his arms and raced
through the burning building
out onto the pavement.
I stood there,
shivering in my pajamas,
go up in flames.
And when it was over,
I said to myself,
"Is that all there is to a fire?"
Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
Is that all there is?
If that's all there is, my friends
Then let's keep dancing
Let's break out the booze
And have a ball
If that's all there is
And then I met
the most wonderful boy in the world.
We would take long walks
by the river.
We'd sit for hours
gazing into each other's eyes.
We were so very much in love.
And then one day he went away,
and I thought I'd die, but I didn't.
And when I didn't, I said to myself,
"Is that all there is to love?"
Is that all there is
Is that all there is
If that's all there is, my friends
Then let's keep...
I know what you're thinking.
If that's the way she feels about it,
why doesn't she just end it all?
Oh, no.
I'm in no hurry
for that final disappointment.
I know as sure as I'm
standing here talking to you,
that when
that final moment comes
and I'm breathing my last breath,
I'll be saying to myself...
Is that all there is
Is that all there is
