all the time, you know,
and we're not going to school
that far away from each other.
It's like a four-hour train ride, so,
we could alternate weekends, whatever.
- Is that Shapiro?
- Is that Justin?
Oh, Shapiro.
Hi, baby.
Yo, you got any weed?
No.
Okay.
- Look, Luke...
- Where's Squires?
- He's in Fire Island.
- Peace.
Yo, wait.
# "Tearz"
by Wu-Tang Clan #
# Yo, check
# Me and the gods
get it ripped #
# Blunts in the dip
Forty dogs in my lip #
# Had a box
Boom, boom. The bass will blast #
# We was laughing
at all the girls that passed #
# Conversation
Brothers had begin to discuss #
# Hey yo, Ra!
Remember that kid ya bust? #
# Oh, yeah, he ran
But he didn't get far #
# 'Cause I dropped him #
# Not knowin'
exactly what lied ahead #
# My little brother
My mother sent him out for bread #
# Get the Wonder
it's a hot day in the summer #
# Didn't expect
to come across a crazy gunner #
Luke.
# "Check it for the bag
and the dough" #
# But he was brave
looked him in the eye and said, "No!" #
# Money splattered him... #
I apologize for the mess.
I wasn't expecting company.
You've been doing
all these drugs?
It's an experiment.
An experience.
Life. Salvation. Drugs.
Go ahead.
I've never done most of
this stuff before, Jeff.
Come on, Luke,
be a pal, do it.
# Flashbacks
I was laughin' all the time #
# I taught him
all about the bees and birds #
# But I wish I had a chance
The ocean.
This is all
I need, Luke.
Forget the city,
the city is wrong.
I just want to wrap myself
in the ocean.
I cannot
- speak.
- That's the spirit, Luke.
Hit me with it!
Come on, hit me!
You don't think I can take it? I can
take everything you got, f***ing sea!
I want a
- vagina.
- You said it, Luke.
told me she didn't like dogs.
There's certain people you just
can't trust, you know, Luke?
Listen to me.
Never trust
anyone who doesn't smoke pot
or listen to Bob Dylan. You hear me?
Never trust anyone
who doesn't like the beach.
Never, ever,
ever,
trust anyone who says
they don't like dogs.
If you meet someone
who doesn't like dogs,
you alert the authorities immediately,
and sure as sh*t don't marry them!
Okay.
Okay.
Nothing's okay.
None of it's
gonna be okay,
everything is going
to be terrible.
I tried to kill myself
twice today.
Once with pills, turns out I have
a very high tolerance for those.
Next by hanging.
The hanging is very hard. The weight.
You lose too much weight,
or you put on too much weight...
Oh, well.
- Dr. Squires, what are you talking about?
- I don't know.
I just...
I'm done.
This is it. Last call, Luke.
I'm glad you're here to see me off.
- Where you going, Dr. Squires?
- In there.
I'm ready to die, Luke.
Stop f***ing around, Jeff.
I'm the weird old guy, remember?
You said so yourself.
Look, I didn't mean it, all right?
You're my friend.
You're my best friend.
So just, please,
would you come back for me?
You're not
worth it, Shapiro!
So that was all
bullshit, right?
All that stuff about embracing your pain,
making it a part of you?
You can't do this!
You can't just give up.
Life is hard and it's full of pain
and what not,
but we take it
'cause there's great stuff, too!
And we can do it
because we have friends!
Because we help
each other!
Stop! Stop!
Luke!
That was really f***ing cheesy,
what you said just then.
There's enough a**holes
in the world, Dr. Squires.
Don't be another one.
Now you sound like me.
You wanna go to the city
to fill out my prescriptions?
Sounds good.
Thank you, Luke.
How you feeling?
Please, don't
do that again.
- All right? You scared me.
- I'm sorry.
Dr. Squires,
I gotta get back.
To my folks.
Where you living
these days, Luke?
We're moving in
with my grandparents.
- In New Jersey.
- I'm sorry to hear that.
I'm sorry to live it.
I'm sorry about
Stephanie, too.
She would have been
a lucky girl.
Good luck in school.
Try and f*** a black girl.
I never got the chance at college.
Baby steps.
It'll be okay.
- I can't answer that.
- It wasn't a question.
- Peace, Doc.
- Peace out, Luke.
Luke. Hey.
Hey.
- Look, man, I just wanted to say...
- Do me a favor, Steph.
Don't say nothing, okay?
Just stand there
till I leave.
- I've never done it before.
- Never done what?
Had my heart broken.
# "All the Young Dudes"
by Mott The Hoople #
To Luke Shapiro.
Luke.
Luke?
Have you had
any more thoughts
about what you're gonna be
as far as a profession goes?
- Mom, he's got time.
- I'm just asking.
Actually, I'm thinking
about becoming a shrink.
Psychology!
It's not quite the shoe business,
but it's a very interesting field.
I figure I'm an expert 'cause everyone
around me is so f***ing crazy, you know?

Yeah, it's okay.
So, um...
What are you
doing tonight?
No plans.
