- No.

Do you?

- I guess.

Yeah.

I had a feeling that you didn't.

- I mean like, I think we're all special.

I believe in that, I guess it's magical,

but I don't think anyone intended anything

and I think when you die you're just,

you're just gone.

- Don't say that, it's so f***ing creepy.

- It's true, I think.

- Okay, okay moving on.

What would you do with a million dollars?

- What if I told you I had $1,000,000?

- Then I'd steal it.

- You would?

- No,

but I'd ask to borrow some.

- What would you do with it'?

- Get out of here, you know, move out.

- Where would you go?

- Anywhere.

But I have a cousin in Alabama.

She let me stay there.

I could pitch in, probably go there.

(orchestral music)

- [Man On Computer] I warned you.

(talking on TV)

- You look like sh*t.

- When you were there did you kill anyone?

- No.

No.

I saw a lot of parts,

you know like body parts after bombings

but no I never killed no one, why?

- I was just wondering.

- You do what you have to do,

no matter what.

Whatever it is you're doing,

there's someone doing a

whole lot worse, you know'?

- I guess.

- No, ain't no guess,

you gotta remember that.

No matter how bad you think you done

there's somebody doing a whole lot worse

who's doing now.

- You think?

- You can trust me, I know.

I f***ing know.

Ain't nothing you doing as

bad as what people are doing

all the time to each other.

You know what people

just close their eyes to

and let happen.

You know I bet whatever it

is you're worried about,

it ain't nothing compared

to the sh*t that goes on.

- Yeah.

Goodnight Lewis.

- Goodnight Milo.

- What?

- Milo and Lewis.

You know it's like she gave us names

she knew we get our asses kicked.

- Yeah.

- I miss her.

- I miss her too.

- Hi.

I'm sorry for leaving like that

and for not speaking to you.

I wasn't snooping I was just

looking for a pen and paper.

I didn't even really know what it meant,

but it kind of freaked me out.

I mean I shouldn't have

just left like that.

I'm sorry.

- It's fine.

- So, so what was all that?

Are you working on a book about vampires,

a crazy killer or something?

- It's nothing that matters any more.

- Really, 'cause it

seemed really detailed.

Did you come here to write more'?

- I'm not writing anymore,

I'm making a plan.

(unnerving music)

- [Man] Sh*t, you're just

giving all this to me?

- Yeah.

- [Man] Why the f*** would you do that?

- So we can trust each other again.

I never spoke to the cops.

- Is this stuff hot'?

- Yeah, very.

- [Man] You got all this yourself?

- Yeah.

- How?

- I broke into places.

- [Man] It's a lot of valuable sh*t.
