You have f***ed four other guys,

and you've been with three women?

Yeah.

This is pathetic.

Oh, you're so shocked. You

said we should know... Shut up!

Just f***ing lash out! You guys have

been railing into me about this bullshit!

You're eating p*ssy! You're f***ing three

other guys and Victorio! F*** both ofyou!

You should have known that we were

doing this ifyou're telling us...

We didn't love those people. What

does it matter ifyou loved them or not?

This is f***ing ridiculous. Oh,

yeah? Well, have you loved anyone?

You thinkyou really love me?

Did you really love Lou?

How do you love two people? Have

you ever really loved anyone?

Can you spare it in between all the times

you're f***ing all these different people?

Do you have time

to, like, have a feeling?

And it doesn't feel

very good, does it?

Do you ever have

any real feelings?

Or do you just, like, uh, play Hamlet all

the time and pretend to have real feelings?

Look, I made

my suggestion,

and I thought

it was a good one...

Two girls and a guy.

But it seems like you guys are a

little too conventional for that.

And that's okay.

Hello. Hi, Dr. Cutler.

Thanks for calling me back.

So you talked to her?

Yeah.

No. I think there was a very

significant drop in her voice.

Fifty percent at least.

Well, no offense,

but maybe you don't know.

I talk to her three times a day, and I

know that there is something different.

Do you think that

it's possible that-that...

Yes, she's still smoking.

I don't know what she told

you, but that's the truth.

Well, when you tell me not to

worry... Don't worry? I am worried.

Your professional opinion?

L... Listen, I know my mother.

I'm telling you there's

something wrong with her,

and I think that she should

probably be admitted today.

Well, I don't think

that's acceptable.

All right, so ifyou're not going to

be in the office, then-then give me...

What good is having

your service number?

When I call you, they're gonna

track you down to the ninth hole?

I'm telling you I need your help, and you're

telling me not to worry, and I am worried.

Well, then refer me

to someone else.

I'm telling you that something's

wrong. I've got to bring her in. No...

I am relaxed.

I am relaxed.

But I don't understand

whyyou're-you're...

Well,

what do you suggest?

Is that all

you have to say?

You're a f***ing quack.

I'll just do it myself.

This f***ing helps a lot

with this bullshit.

I'm gonna go

upstairs and make a phone call.

Okay.

Okay.

I apologize if I was derogatory

about your bisexuality.

It's okay.

I'm gonna have to go see my mom in a couple

of minutes, 'cause there's something, uh...

This guy's inept. He's a quack, and

I just... For five minutes, I gotta...

I feel bad

about everything.

I do. I'm sorry that I

reacted the way I did in there.

And-And I just... Words are,

uh, not serving me at all.

I think that language

is always lies, no matter...

That's why I like playing the piano,

because then there's no words, and-and...

What's your point?

What do you want to do?

I don't know. I'm very

reluctant tojust say good-bye.

I think that there's something

exceptional that could come of us,

notjust ditching our

relationship right now, don't you?

Even if I think that, I think it would...

The cycle would just still continue.

Finally, it would just come

down to chemistry. Hormones.

Yeah, or the only thing to do when you're

just overcome with overwhelming desire...

Isjust submit to it. I mean,

even if it's only rarely or once.

Right. It's still... I

don't know. A violation.

Yeah. Well, even if it was

admitted to, if it was owned up to...

Bragged about?

What?

Don't you think that's

what it would feel like?

"Hi, how was your day?" "It was great.

I f***ed this guy. How was yours?"

What are you saying? That after

everything, it's better to lie?

I'm just saying that maybe

we'rejust not capable of monogamy.

I mean, maybe to some people

it's second nature.

Maybe we'rejust...

F***ed up?

Maybe monogamy violates some essential part

ofour being and desire makes us feel alive.

We need to feel desired and to

say no is like a self-mutilation.

Some people, maybe they're so desperate

they need to feel they're not alone...

so theyjust pretend that they

can love one person exclusively.

"They" being you and I? Well,

would you argue with that?

I'd like to, but I don't think I

could make a valid argument for it.

But I think that regardless ofwhether

or not you can trust me 100% ofthe time,

or I can trust you when I'm not

with you, or we trust ourselves,

that doesn't mean that we

should just can it right now.

I think we should continue

and see what happens.

Stick it out.

I gotta go see my mom.

I'll be right back, okay?

Don't leave, okay?

I'm gonna go.

But here's my number.

Lfyou ever have the beer,

I'll always have the time.

And I don't mean

just sexually.

Not just sexually anyway.

Hi. Manhattan on, uh, Madison

Avenue. It's Frank E. Campbell.

It's a business.

Uh, Cam... uh, "E,"

the letter "E."

And then Campbell.

C A M P B E L L.

Uh, it's a funeral home.

Hi. I'm call... uh...

I'm sorry.

Hi. Hello...

Hello? Hi. My-

Hello? Hi, yeah, um,

I'm calling to make

funeral arrangements...

for my friend's mother.

Dorothy Allen.

Okay. Yeah, we'll

be there then. Okay.

Oh, sh*t.

Oh, sh*t.

I'm really sorry.

Oh, goddamn.

I'm sorry.

We should go.

Okay.

Let me get my coat.
