Really.

It's okay.

Are you the people

that brought that kidney?

Yeah.

Uh, yeah.

Well, he's doin' real good.

Great.

Yeah, I work with Earl,

his father.

Oh.

Love Earl.

He's on the force with me.

The force.

You stole that car, didn't you?

Yeah.

Y'all are gonna have to leave.

Right away.

There any place you'd like

for me to drop you?

What's going on

with you and frank?

Where did that

come from?

Well, he just

keeps texting you.

You looking at my phone?

Are you the f***ing FBI?

You having an affair?

Excuse me.

Sorry.

Hi.

Is it okay if I sit here?

Yeah.

Excuse me.

Can I -- is it all right

if I sit there

for a second?

I'm asking you a question.

Oh, my gosh.

Are you having

an affair with him?

My life is none

of your business, okay?

You got to be kidding me.

You're sleeping

with your therapist?

Shh!

Is that what this is about?

Shut up!

You're f***ing

your therapist,

and now you want

to kill yourself

because he's canceling

all your appointments.

You don't know anything

about me and frank.

Okay.

If you think your therapist

is gonna fall in love with you,

you're delusional.

Oh!

Oh, my gosh.

You're jealous.

Yeah, right.

You're so jealous!

Please turn around.

Please turn around.

Hey!

Let me be clear.

You and I, this,

it's not happening, okay?

We are not a love story.

And you are the last person

to be lecturing me on sex.

He's got a problem

with his penis.

I just met her.

I have no idea

what she's talking about.

Hey.

Hey.

Um...

You know, I've been --

I've been thinking

that I don't --

i don't really think

that this is working out.

I think that maybe

we should go our separate ways.

Okay.

Cool.

Okay.

See ya.

See ya.

Operator:

City and state, please.

Manti, Utah.

I need an address, please.

Hey!

Where's the girl?

Lolita!

Lolita!

Where is she?

Lolita!

Who the f*** are you?

I'm a friend of hers.

We're just having some fun,

Batman.

Beat it.

I got no place to go.

F***!

-Sh*t!

-F***!

I got a gun.

What the f***?

Come on.

Let's get out of here.

Come on.

-You scared the hell out of me.

What are you doing with a gun?

-I told you I had a gun!

F***ing...

Come on.

Let's get out of here.

What are you doing with a gun?

Stop pointing it around.

Put it down!

Put it --

okay, okay.

Hey, you f***ing b*tch!

Why did you come with us if you

didn't want to get f***ed, huh?

I'm sorry about that.

Kenny.

Kenny.

I'm sorry.

I didn't --

I didn't quite hear

what you just said.

I said she didn't want

to get f***ed.

You want to get f***ed?

Whoa, man.

You want to f*** my friend?

Kenny.

Kenny, come on.

I want you to say you're sorry.

Yeah. Right.

We're sorry.

Shut the f*** up.

I'm talking to him.

Okay.

"I'm sorry."

Man:
Say it.

I'm sorry.

Put more life into it.

Like, a little, like...

I'm sorry.

Tell her you're sorry.

I'm sorry, man.

Kenny.

Kenny, come on.

It's okay.

No, don't do it to me.

Look her in the eye.

I'm sorry.

Okay.

Get in the car.

Get in the f***ing car!

You are f***ed.

Go!

Hey.

Hey!

Thank you.

You okay?

Yeah.

You?

Yep.

You were right.

About frank.

Are you in love with him?

Frank says that I pursue

men who are unavailable.

So...

Here's your share.

I'll get you -- I owe you more.

Why don't we just,

uh, you know,

keep it together?

If that's okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Kenny:

Here's great.

Okay.

All right. We're here.

-Whoa.

-Let's go.

-No!

-Thanks.

Hey.

Why did you tell them

to let us off here?

There's somebody

i need to look up.

Who?

She left me at the altar.

I haven't seen her

since.

Looks like

she did all right.

Ava.

The kids are at grandma's.

You -- you have kids?

Yeah. Two.

How old are they?

1 and 3.

You know, my husband grew up

in a one bedroom

with two brothers,

so we overcompensated.

That's a cool backyard.

Do you mind if I...?

Please.

This place is great.

Really feels like

a real home.

You look nice.

Ava:
Never thought

I'd see you again.

Getting all those

letters back.

Yeah, I didn't feel like

corresponding.

I didn't really know

what to say, so...

I loved you.

I did.

Just so you know.

Yeah.

That makes sense.

Sorry.

I'm -- I'm over it,

but I --

I stood there

waiting for you,

and I w--

i wasn't embarrassed.

I just kept thinking

the whole time,

"why the f***

would she do that to me?

Why would...

Didn't she realize

what we have?

Doesn't she realize that --"

you know.

It was pretty special,

i thought.

Right?

I was getting drunk

with Rita

and she says to me,

"do you have any plans?"

So I say

"who needs plans?

Why do we need plans?"

And she says, "in 10 years,

Kenny is still

gonna be looking

for himself.

Is that what

you want?"

Rita.

Rita was never

really a good friend of yours.

But I thought

she was right about us.

I guess so.

Lolita:

She was really nice.

And beautiful.

I-i totally see

what you see in her.

Get in the car.

He's got a gun.

-Ah, you! Aah!

-Come on!

- Hey!

-Hey!

-Hop in!

Lolita:
Aah!

Brandon:

I got to tell you,

that is the sweetest ride

I've ever ridden in or driven.

Thanks for selling it

to us.

Well, we should tell you

something about that car.

No.

-Yeah.

-We shouldn't.

-Yeah, we should.

-No.

It's stolen.

It's a stolen car?

Yeah.

And, here,

we've been feeling terrible

about taking it

all this time.

Yeah.

You've got a couple priors.

Ah, we'll take a bus back.

Hey.

Your heart

was in the right place.

Yeah.

We get to take grandma

to the ufo museum,

just like we promised.

In style.

Okay, grams.

We did like we said

we would.

If they treated you good before,

I know they're gonna

treat you good now.

Brandon:

She was a tough old bird.

This has to mean something,

don't you think?

What does?

Us meeting up like this.

Can't just be

coincidence.

You know

what coincidence is?

A remarkable concurrence

of events or circumstances

without apparent

causal connection.

Doesn't mean there isn't

some sort of greater purpose.

Something we can't always see.

Doesn't mean there is.

So, you still going

to San Francisco?

Yeah.

Let's get a hotel.

Kenny:

We have 29 dollars.

Trust me.

Welcome.

How can I help you?

Uh, give us

your best room.

The best.

Let's see what we got.

The best.

Looks like we have our

presidential suite available.

Uh, can I see

your credit card?

What?

Credit card.

A credit card?

Mm-hmm.

Good.

You're gonna love it.

It's beautiful.

You had that

the whole time?

You don't grab life

by the balls

with an American express

platinum card.

My mother left

the first time when I was 8

to find herself.

She went on the road,

followed aerosmith.

Aerosmith?

Yeah.

She lives here.

It's...Stupid.

Maybe.

Hi.

How can I help you?

Um, we're here

to see Katharine.

Katharine...

Nowicki.

Oh, okay.

And you are?

Her daughter.

Oh, we didn't, uh, know

she had a daughter.

Yeah.

Uh, your name?

Uh, Alma.

Sorry.

Alma Maria nowicki.

I have, um...

Yes, please.
