what was coming to him.

Thank you.

So we're Eskimo brothers.

I f***ed him too.

What?

Thanks for sharing, Chris.

Guys, I mean, come on.

That was a long time ago.

That guy probably works

in a gas station now.

And what's wrong with

that if he does?

I think we got it.

Everybody does stupid

things when they're kids.

Yeah, they certainly do.

Watch the wine, babe.

I didn't know that

you two had gotten,

you know, so close growing up.

Yeah.

What happened?

I moved.

Oh, I know, but what happened

more specifically?

Why did you stop talking?

Well, you know what happened.

Why are you bringing this up?

I was just curious what

Christine had to say.

Why?

All right, let's rewind a little bit.

I'll clean up.

No, I can do that.

Help me get the cake, hon?

Hey, what you doing over here?

Should you be drinking?

I've only had one glass, dad.

Okay.

So I used to see you around.

Did you and I ever...

What?

Ever...

No.

Good.

Yeah.

I was trying to remember.

That would be awkward.

Yeah, it would be.

So how did you

and my sis hook up?

Well, your father introduced us.

Yeah.

I was lucky to have gotten

to work with him,

even briefly.

Yeah.

He was a hard-ass.

But he knew what he wanted.

I know it doesn't

look like much, but...

the ideas that he had

for the renovation,

they're all really solid.

It's just the guts of

the house that don't work,

the electrical stuff, you know.

We don't want another fire here.

She told you it was

an electrical problem?

It's not true.

I started the fire.

All right.

You want to dance?

Yeah, I don't know.

I don't know if you can

keep up with me, to be honest.

To be honest, we won't know

unless we try.

Come on.

All right, all right,

I'm getting up.

Help me find more wine?

Mm-hmm.

I got the spins.

Come here.

I feel like I'm in college.

I'm gonna go to bed.

Yeah?

Okay.

I'll be up in a sec.

Your sister's kind of nuts,

by the way.

She told me that she started

the fire in the garage.

Is that true?

She's not nuts.

Why the hell did you tell me

that it was an electrical fire?

I've been rewiring this whole house,

for Christ's sake.

She did all kinds of crazy sh*t

when I moved in with them.

Like, she didn't want to share

her dad with a stranger.

What are you talking about?

She didn't mean to hurt me.

Look, we are in a relationship.

Mm-hmm.

You are supposed to

share things with me.

You're not supposed to

choose what you share

and what you don't share.

Share.

You told me that you

burned yourself, Kai.

Yeah, I kind of did.

I was trying to get her

out of there.

Yeah.

Yeah.

So you're a liar?

- Mm-mm.

- No?

Mm-mm.

You want to share?

Let's share.

What's up with that

stupid story in there?

It made you seem horrible.

Why are you talking

so close to me?

Well, why are you

so close to me?

Tell me.

What?

Well, what..what..

why the f*** did you even

bring up that story?

Oh, come on.

What are you..

I was a kid.

And that..what,

that a**hole calling me a rapist?

Are you kidding me?

I'll f***ing show him a rapist.

I'm gonna put my dick

in his mouth.

- Dude.

- Hard.

That's called humour.

Humour.

Yeah, all right.

Forget it.

I'm sorry.

I'm drunk.

I'm drunk.

Let's go have fun...

- Yeah.

- With everyone.

Let's have fun.

I'm all right.

Yeah?

Go ahead.

After you, Princess Leia.

# After you've gone

# And left me crying

# After you've gone

# There's no denying

# You'll feel blue

# You'll feel sad

# You'll miss the only pal

# You've ever had

# There comes a time

# Don't forget it

# There'll come a time

# When you'll regret it

# Some day

when you'll grow lonely

# Your heart will break like mine

# And you'll want me only #

Babe?

# After you've gone #

Babe?

# Gone away #

Honey?

# After you've gone

# After the breakup

# After you've gone

# You're gonna wake up #

I think she's sleepwalking.

I'll be right back.

I'm gonna go try

and put her to bed.

# Come and change your mind

# After the years #

What the f*** was that?

Don't worry about that.

Don't worry about that?

She sleepwalks.

Hey, there.

- Hi.

- Morning.

Sorry, I look like sh*t.

No, you don't.

How did you sleep?

I slept okay.

Thanks for having us,

by the way.

It's really nice for her.

It's not a problem.

Where is she?

She's still sleeping.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

I'm really sorry about last night.

Hey, don't worry about it.

You're great with her.

It's good.

You don't get mad.

Yeah, well, there's no use

in getting mad, is there?

I don't know.

I never tried it.

Have you tried spanking her?

Sorry, what's that?

That was a joke.

That was a really weird joke.

I'm so hungover.

I have no idea why I said that.

It's okay.

Hey, um...

Listen, I have some time before

I have to leave for Grozny.

And I can do some work

from home for a few days.

What are you doing in Grozny?

We're monitoring

the elections there.

Ah.

Listen, she's been a little

all over the place lately.

Lately?

A little more than usual.

You know she went off

her medication, right?

Yeah, 'cause it's bad

for the baby, no?

Yeah, yeah, I know.

It's just..seems like

it's good for her

to be close to you right now.

And I, um...

I don't want to

impose in any way.

If it's okay with you and Andrew,

I'd like us to stay

for a few more days.

Yeah, of course.

Of course.

Are you sure?

Yeah, it's not a problem, really.

Please stay.

- Okay, thank you.

- Yeah.

Hey.

So, what, they're staying?

I'm sorry about that.

He kind of just invited himself.

I have to go and

pick up some dresses

from an estate sale.

Christine and I are

heading into town.

You need anything?

No, I'm good.

Okay.

- Hey, wait.

- What?

Come here.

Come here.

Look, I've got to say something.

To me, it seem like

she changes you.

What do you mean?

Staying like this.

Why?

It's like she's trying

to win you back.

So?

So it's not gonna be a drinking

party every day up here.

We have a lot of work to do.

They're gonna help out at all?

I'm not gonna

put them to work.

What the f***

are they gonna do?

Look, this is where she grew up.

She has the right to stay.

Come on, last night?

Yeah, I know.

Yeah.

But you just don't like her.

Oh, no, she's f***ing awesome.

Coming downstairs, prancing around

in her f***ing underwear.

- Hey.

- Ooh.

Hey, she's my sister.

This is my house.

I'm going to lunch.

- Pretty low, Kai.

- Yeah.

It's not like I'm

breaking my f***ing back

out here or anything.

Wait here.

- Hi.

- Hi.

I called about the clothes.

Yes.

I'm really sorry for your loss.

Thanks.

I just looked around a little.

Nothing's changed.

No, it hasn't.

I'm really sorry that I hurt you.

I saw you out by the garage

the other morning.

You know you've never

really let me see it?

It's not so much to look at.

Can I?

It's not so bad, Kai.

You know, I've always imagined

that it was so much worse.

Yeah?

Well, you've seen between

my thighs, right,

where they pulled the skin for it?
