I don't even know what I'd
do with you once you were dead.
But I can't just let you go.
So,
I have a dilemma.
- [ Sighs ]
What time is it?
F***.
[ "Chiming" ]
Just a minute.
[ "Chiming" ]
Hello.
Mr. Wells.
Dr.Jarvis, so good
to see you again.
Nice to see you, too.
Won't you come in?
Sorry about that.
I-I couldn't find
the key to the door.
- I didn't hear it unlock.
- Oh, that's right.
I didn't find it.
Um, right this way.
So, Mr. Wells, you and your wife...
would like to adopt the baby.
- Yes, sir. that's right.
- Okay.
Now, you understand the next step
in the adoption proceedings?
Um, yes. We are to be
individually evaluated.
Yes. that's right.
That's why I'm here.
Uh, your wife, of course,
has already completed
her evaluation.
She's an extraordinary woman.
Absolutely extraordinary woman.
- Um, shall we begin?
- Sure. yeah. One thing--
Weren't we already evaluated
at the previous screening?
No. that was just
the initial consultation.
This is the individual
competency test.
Do you have a problem
with that, Mr. Wells?
No... not really.
Good. Then we can get started.
And what are your
qualifications, Dr.Jarvis?
"Are you an M.D.", "uh--"
Are you nervous, Mr. Wells?
No.
Why?
Because what you're doing
is this thing...
called conversational
transference.
Simply means
that you're trying to evade...
answering my question
"by answering me" with "questions."
It's something that's
usually indulged in...
by individuals
who are trying to hide something.
You trying to hide
something from me, Mr. Wells?
- No.
- "Good."
- Do you currently use drugs?
- No.
Not even Tylenol?
Some... sure.
- Any history of drug use?
- Uh...
A little, I guess.
About as much as anyone
who goes to college.
''Justification of drug use.''
How about alcohol?
An occasional beer.
You ever been incarcerated
or institutionalized?
- No.
- "Any history of mental illness?"
- No.
- You know, there's something
that's very troubling to me.
There's a gap of two,
two and a half years.
I mean--
- "It occurs", "like", "five years ago."
- Yeah.
Can I get you,
uh, some iced tea?
- No. No, thank you.
- I'm a little dry.
- Do you mind?
- Oh, no. please, go.
I asked because
your wife was very vague...
about what you might
have been doing...
and I was hoping
you might be able...
to shed a little bit
of light on it for me.
Uh, I was in L.A.
Yes. that's just
what your wife said.
Could you be a little bit
more specific, though?
Oh, well...
I-I was doing some odd jobs...
"and this and that", "you know?"
"No", "I" don't "know."
Could you elaborate?
Well, I did work
as a mechanic for a while.
Oh, you mean like
for a body shop?
No. I mean like
in a performance shop.
- Perf--
- Well, exotics and, uh, rally cars.
Oh. Uh-huh.
You know, I've changed my mind.
I think I would
like some iced tea.
I'm sorry.
We're all out of iced tea.
How about a beer?
Yeah--
- You don't have anything else?
- No.
No. I don't.
This is-- This is just about
all that-- all that I have.
Chris has been a little busy.
I'm-I'm sorry, Dr.Jarvis.
What-What were you saying?
Oh, I was just asking
if you remember the name
Uh, Bubba's.
''Bubba's''?
Bubba's...
Big... Block... Shop.
Do you have
a number for Bubba's?
[ "Banging" ]
No. No, they're,
uh, out of business.
[ "Banging" ]
Could you excuse me...
for just a second?
- [ "Banging" ]
- My cat... must have got in--
got into the garage...
and I'll be... be right back.
See these?
Got any idea what
I can do with these?
- Mm-hmm.
- Somehow, I just don't believe you.
Besides, that'd just
make a lot of noise.
Sorry about that, Dr.Jarvis.
[ Tires Screeching ]
- So, where were we?
- Oh, yeah.
Wow, I apologize.
This never happens.
Can I help you?
''May I.''
All right...
may I help you?
- So, you're Casey?
- That's right.
I'm a friend of Nick's.
I'll bet you are.
May I come in?
- Nick's not here right now.
- I'll wait.
- I'm a little busy.
- Well, I'll be real quiet.
Look, lady, I just told you.
I'm a little busy!
It's quite all right.
She's not my friend.
I don't know who the f*** she is.
Uh, hi.
I am Dallas.
No. don't bother
introducing yourself
- [ "Mooing" ]
- What is that?
"That" is my phone.
Aren't you going to answer it?
- [ "Mooing Continues" ]
- Where's your cordless?
You doing a survey?
I had one.
I broke it.
- In anger?
- Yeah.
I mean, no.
Can you give me, uh,
just a second?
- Don't sit down.
- [ Mooing ]
- Hello. Nick.
- Case.
You get the f***
back here right now.
No. I got myself
in a little trouble, Case.
You, my friend,
are in a lot more trouble
- Yalie, huh?
I'm a Vassar gal myself.
- What was your major?
- Poly-scI and philosophy. You mind?
[ Sighs ]
Casey's got to be
real f***ed up...
if you're making
a house call.
I'm beginning
to think so, yes.
and he tried to kill me.
And now one of your bimbos
- Bimbo?
- Some b*tch named Dallas.
Tell me, you're not
one of those, uh...
Freudian sub-intellectuals
fixating on penis envy?
Well, sex is a prime motivator.
I mean, indirectly,
I believe sex...
is behind most of our major
thought processes.
- You think so?
- Absolutely.
- Do you like pornos?
- Excuse me?
You know, pornos.
F*** films.
Surely you've heard stories.
Yes. I've heard stories,
but I've never-- never really
given them that much thought.
I love them,
especially fag flicks.
Their big c*cks sliding in
and out of each other.
F***, that gets me so wet
they have to steam clean
In fact,
[ Moans ]
I'm getting wet
- What aren't you telling me, Nick?
- Nothing, Case.
-Just don't give her my sh*t.
- Don't worry. I don't have it.
- You give it to the Jamaican?
- No.
- I flushed it down the sink.
- What?
I went on as a day player
on this porn film in L.A.
Just to see
what it was like, right?
So, I spent five hours with this guy
ramming his dick up my ass...
and these two women
licking my clit.
"Not what you'd expect",
though. It's just acting.
I mean, at first, it was great.
Then you have some prick director
that comes over and yells
that comes over every
been slobbered off your tits.
So you don't really
Finally, I just walked off the set.
Cool experience, though.
You got a hard-on,Jarv?
[ Casey ]
All right
- Time to go.
Your cow is calling you.
- I am so sorry, Dr.Jarvis.
- Oh, no. Please, take your time.
You get the f*** out of my house.
- Did you say you were from L.A.?
- What?
- [ Christine ] What?
