a special ringtone

so I know it's you

when you're calling.

All right.

Next stop, 57th Street.

Oh, sh*t,

this is my stop.

I gotta go to

a meeting with my boss.

You know, I'm going to the park,

like, six blocks away.

I'd rather just walk

than be in this stuffy place.

All right.

Hey, I could show you some

of my pictures sometime

- if you want to see something.

- Oh, that would be great.

- Yeah?

- I would love that.

So, Leonard, it was great

to hang out with you.

Oh, yeah.

You too.

And I guess I'll see you

around the building.

Not if I see you first.

Yeah, I'll see you.

Hey, if you need a place to hide,

- you know where to come.

- Oh, yeah.

- I'll keep that in mind.

- All right.

- All right, I'll see you later.

- Bye.

I can't believe it.

It's 11 past 7:
00.

You talk to him.

Where were you all day?

We were worried.

I tried you on your cell phone.

All we got was the message.

- Oh, yeah?

- What? You don't show up for lunch.

Yeah, there was

a terrorist alert--

- What?

- --In the subway.

- Terrorism?

- Yeah.

I'll just call

everyone and apologize.

- Hello?

- Hello?

Sandra?

It's Leonard.

Hi!

Hey. Hey, I'm so sorry

I missed lunch today.

I just-- I was down getting

equipment for my camera

and it's like you have to wait in line

forever after they give you the number.

I had the wrong

number and then--

No no no no, it's okay.

I got there late anyway.

It's okay.

Don't worry about it.

Yeah? Well, I don't know

what you're--

What you're doing

tomorrow, but...

I don't know, if you want

to go see a movie or something?

Maybe-- "Sound of Music"

isn't playing, but, you know...

We could find, maybe, something.

My God, you're never going

to let me live that one down.

Okay, no.

Yeah, let's go.

- Hello?

- Yeah.

- Good.

- Yeah, that'll be fun.

Okay, then I'll call you--

I'll call you tomorrow.

- Okay.

- Okay? All right, have a nice night.

- Okay, bye.

- Okay, bye-bye.

Hi. What are you doing?

You're taking my picture?

Yeah.

I was actually trying

to get your attention.

Oh.

You got it.

How you doing?

Good.

What's going on?

You look

all dressed up.

Oh, well,

I'm going out.

I'm gonna go dancing

with some friends of mine.

What about you?

What are you doing?

I was thinking about maybe going

out, but, you know, I don't know.

Leonard, we can't have that.

Come with us.

Hey, you heard of

a goddamn phone?

Hey, you know what, Doug?

There's a f***ing storm coming, man.

Why don't you

come with us?

Yeah-- maybe, yeah.

- It's gonna be good.

- All right.

We're gonna leave in, like, 30 minutes.

Is that all right?

- Yeah. 30 minutes, downstairs?

- Yeah.

- Yeah, okay.

- I'll see you down there.

My account number?

143...

- 209.

- That's Western Mutual Life.

- And the expiration date is...

- And by...

- 03/25/11.

- ...The Corporation for Public Broadcasting,

- and by contributions to PBS stations...

- Yeah.

...from viewers like you.

Oh!

You look hot!

- Hey.

- Hey.

- Hi.

- I'm Stephanie.

Dayna.

What's up?

What's up, what's up?

Ah, this was my song

with my crew, right?

- I was dancing-- but then I had my--

- With his crew.

I did.

I really did.

So I go, "who's gonna

rock this party right?"

And you guys go,

"L to the E-O-N-A-R-D"--

- My name, right?

- Okay.

Okay. So, who's gonna rock

the party right?

L to the E-O-N-A-R-D.

Who's gonna rock

the party right?

L to the E-O-N-A-R-D.

- Ladies--

- I can't spell!

What? You wanna bring it on?

'Cause I'll blow up your face

like Louis Armstrong.

And if you can't handle

the serious battle,

you mi-- you might want

to step up-- oh, sh*t.

- Aww!

- It was, like, 15 years ago.

I'm sorry! No, that was cute.

That was good.

- It was cute?

- Yeah, you are cute.

He's my new best friend.

- I was just about to say that.

- I gotta be out by midnight.

Michelle, what are you doing?

You still doing E.?

It's just

for a night.

God, don't take

another one.

Oh, come on,

I gotta do something.

I'm living in the middle

of f***ing nowhere!

So, Leonard,

you go clubbing a lot?

- Yeah.

- You go clubbing?

Are you gonna bring it

on the dance floor?

I'll do what

I have to do.

He goes clubbing.

I think you're gonna

like this, Leonard.

- Yeah.

- Are you gonna dance with me?

Maybe. I won't make you

look bad, you know?

- Hi, girls!

- Hi, Antonio!

Hey! Hey!

- All right.

- Antonio!

- What's up?

- How you doing?

- This is my friend Leonard.

- You got I.D.?

- He's f***ing with you.

- I'm only kidding. Go ahead.

Getting off in 10 minutes,

all right?

- Okay!

- All right.

Yeah.

Relax relax relax relax.

Michelle!

Are you all right?

- What's the matter?

- Just go back inside, okay?

I'll be fine.

You know, you--

you can talk to me if you want.

You know, you can

tell me anything.

- Is it your father?

- Oh.

No.

That guy you're with?

Yeah.

I was-- I was supposed to

meet up with him tonight

but now he says

he can't make it.

He says he's gonna stay

with his wife.

He's married;

he has a son.

Oh, f***, I'm so

f***ing stupid.

Don't say that.

You're not stupid.

- I am.

- You're not stupid.

- I'm so f***ing stupid.

- Don't say that.

No, you're not.

Come here.

Don't say that,

okay?

He keeps telling me

he's gonna leave them.

You know, he tells me

over and over.

And I never

asked him to do that.

And now I can't think

of anything else.

- I'm such a piece of sh*t.

- No.

Look at me.

You're very high right now.

You're very emotional.

You shouldn't think

about this right now, okay?

Let's just go home.

I'll take you home, okay?

- Ahh.

- You need to calm down.

You don't want to be out

here with all these people.

- Okay?

- Okay. Okay.

Don't worry about it.

Don't worry about it.

We're gonna go home.

All right.

I'll be right back.

Okay.

I'll wait--

I'll wait right here.

Ahh, f***.

Can I just get

my bag?

- I was in before. I left my bag.

- All right, go ahead.

Sorry.

F***ing boyfriend.

F***.

- What's up, man?

- What up?

- I'm just going back in.

- You on the list?

- I was just in here.

- Yeah yeah, you and everybody else.

No, I just

came out, man.

I came out. I was

with Stephanie and--

I'm sorry, man. If you're not

on the list, I can't let you in.

- I was just inside.

- You're gonna have to move.

Go ahead.

Are you serious?

Ta-- taxi?

Who the f*** am I kidding?

I'll never get a taxi.

You have one message.

Hey, Leonard,

it's Sandra.

- Hey, Sandra.

- Um, listen, I know we had plans tomorrow,

but I totally forgot-- tomorrow

night's my dad's birthday party

and I gotta

go to that.

But my mom said your parents

are going to be going too

so I guess

you'll be with them?

We could go out

after if you want.

So just call me and let me

know if that's all right.

Okay?

Oh, and by the way,

you're not

going to believe this,

But "the Sound of Music" is

playing on cable right now.

And I still love it.

It's very good.

Okay, call me.
