Knock, knock.

Medication time.

Just a minute.

Hold on.

Okay.

Oh, Jesus.

Hope I'm not

interrupting anything.

Um...

here.

Thanks.

He refuses to learn

his bowel program.

Me and Rosa had to spend all last week

just trying to get him up on that toilet.

Cheryl Lynn says he won't even

dress himself in the morning.

Mm-hmm. It's not our problem the n*gger

won't dress himself or dig his own sh*t.

When his day comes, he's outta here.

You tell him that.

I already did.

Rosa!

You're adorable.

Well, good night.

Good night.

You still like me?

You're okay.

Anna?

Do you have a minute?

Sure.

Um, we understand the patient's need for...

sex therapy.

But on the ward, well, the

other patients tend to feel...

Left out.

Of course.

Then, there's something about insurance,

which even I can't figure out.

If it were up to me,

I'd change the rules.

I understand your dilemma.

I'm sorry to embarrass you.

We all have our needs.

No, it's, um...

I mean, y-yes.

Middle button.

Hey!

Here we go,

back into gimp palace.

All you gimps.

You cripples!

Whoo, she's gonna ask me,

"can I still get it up?"

Sh*t, yeah, I can get it up.

I'm Raymond hill.

Got plenty of women.

Women all across the country.

Shoot!

Gonna ask me if I don't know

what I'm doin'. I know.

Matter of fact,

gonna call her right now...

And tell her she can come

and sit on me and this chair.

Hey, Rosa?

Rosa? Carmelita?

Rodriguez. Concepcion.

Why the hell you all got

so many damn names? Shh!

Family.

Every man...

daughter needs a father.

Rosa! Rosa!

Sh*t!

Jesus Christ, Ray!

What the hell are you trying to do, man?

What does it look like I'm trying to do?

Get to bed. That's what I'm trying to do.

It's all right, Les. It's okay.

I'll get up there myself.

I don't give a sh*t.

Goddamn only...

I ain't nothin' but a goddamned

statistic around here, anyway.

Les, all these people

in here is prejudice.

Shh! People are trying to sleep.

All of them is prejudice.

Where is Rosa at?

She was supposed to give me my pain...

you've been drinking, Ray.

I ain't been drinkin'!

You've been drinkin',

and you know the rules!

Les, I ain't... you're

supposed to be my friend.

I ain't gonna sit here and

let you libel my good name.

Get off of me.

Where's the supervisor?

People are trying to sleep, Ray.

Supervisor!

Sleepin'?

Oh, okay.

Hey, hey, halo.

Halo.

He can't hear you, Ray.

He's asleep.

I'm sorry I woke you up,

motherf***er.

I went out and got some women!

Come on, Ray.

Hey, Bloss, I saw Annabelle.

I saw Annabelle, Bloss.

Okay, okay, okay,

you just keep quiet.

You'll be all right.

Oh, Les!

It'll be all right.

Call my wife, Les.

That's all right.

We'll call them in the morning. No, no, no.

I wanna talk to Starletta.

She need a father.

You just need to sleep.

I need a family, Les.

I ain't gonna be nothin' without no family.

What am I gonna be?

It's gonna be all right, Ray.

You just relax.

G-g-get my wife

on the phone.

Just go to sleep. I ain't got no family.

What am I gonna do?

We'll call them in the morning.

So, they're just gonna dump this guy

on the highway with 20 bucks...

And a new leg bag

and say, "good luck, Raymond"?

Yep. I'd, uh,

I'd feel sorry for him,

but I'm saving up

all my pity for myself.

You haven't used any yet?

That much.

Sorry I took so long.

At last.

You two have fun today.

Thanks.

So long, saps!

I bought you this tape,

didn't I?

Our third date.

I already had the cd, by the way.

I never told you that.

Obviously, I was not

thinking too clearly.

Half a year of those looks

every time I went in the office.

- I never gave you looks.

- Oh, now, you gave me looks.

You gavemelooks.

You gave me looks.

Oops! Oops!

A wind! It blew out of my hand.

You f***er!

I'm sorry. I'll buy you another one.

I hate you.

Ah, good choice.

Yeah.

Romantic.

Now, you were heading?

Uh, I was heading

this way, east.

And, um, he was coming up

brower, heading north.

And?

I went through

the intersection.

Roughly how fast

were you going?

Mr. Dorsinski?

What?

About how fast were you going?

I don't know.

About 30, 35.

You all right, Bloss?

I'm fine, mom.

So, he crossed through and hit you

in the middle of the intersection.

That's what I said, didn't I?

Look, can we talk about this

in a restaurant?

I gotta find a bathroom.

What?

I want to look at you.

Joel, I'm shy.

Let me. Please.

What's wrong?

Mm, it's wet.

Oh, sh*t!

The gizmo slipped.

It's okay. It's okay.

Damn it! Son of...

it's not okay!

It's f***ed!

We have another one.

We'll just clean it up, okay?

It's only a little wet.

It's no big deal, okay? I got it.

Hey, it's okay.

I might go again.

I never know when I'm gonna go.

We'll put on your other gizmo.

It's not worth it.

Just forget it. F*** it.

Hey, come on.

I don't feel anything, anyway.

Can we just... just forget it, all right?

Oh, isn't she beautiful?

Isn't she beautiful?

Oh, she looks

just like you, Victor.

Oh. Uh-oh.

Let's go to daddy.

Let's go to daddy.

Watch the neck.

Vengase, mi hijita.

Travelin' baby.

Ah!

Mom, if he's a lawyer, he should

be able to answer our questions.

Probably has to talk

to Mr. sparks first.

Who's Mr. sparks?

You know, the guy on tv.

Larry sparks.

Mom, you're telling me that you

got these bozos off the tv?

Yeah.

Mom, that's just plain stupid.

No, it's not.

This is the respectable firm.

It's stupid, mom!

Bloss, you know,

I think you're upset,

and I think it's because

you went back too soon.

I told you it was too soon.

Don't get on my case about it.

Leave me alone about it and

don't make it my fault, okay?

Howdy, partner!

Who the f*** is that?

Hope you're all ready

for a little entertainment.

F***ing square dancers

in my room!

Bloss. Bloss!

Bloss, these people

are trying to cheer you up,

and you are being so rude!

Bloss!

Bloss. Bloss!

Hey, man.

You all right?

Just go away.

Leave me alone.

Boy, you do know how

to trash a place.

Here, have a taste.

Look, it's unhealthy

to drink alone.

It's better to drink with a partner,

even if it has to be you.

F*** you, man. Now look at that.

Why you gonna wipe it off?

That is just so childish.

You know, my sister used to do that.

Probably good reason, man.

It's childish!

Ah, yes.

What the f*** is this sh*t?

Here, give it here.

Yeah, go ahead. Have another one.

Don't mind me.

You know, Bloss,

I've been thinkin'.

If a man wanna snuff it, bam!

Aim his chair

into traffic, squish!

Huh? But you got to

time it right.

You got to pick the right car.

Like a Cadillac.

Mm-hmm.

Oh, no, no, a bus.

Now a bus will

squoosh you real good.

So, do it, man.

Oh, sh*t! If I was one of

them total quads, then...

man, they can't even

raise their hands.

You know, they can't

even slug a man.

I mean, goddamn, even a quad

need to slug a man sometime.

Look at Joe, man.

I hate that motherf***er.

I say you just jealous,

that's all.

You just jealous
