"I need more red." "Don't move." "I need more red." "Fuck." "Fuck!" "Stay still." "Stay still." "I'm doing the mouth so don't..." "No talking." "I'll be right back." "Don't talk." "Don't move." "Hey." "Hey, excuse me." "Can you please help?" "We need to send "Green Sunbeam" to New York." "Impossible." "It's going to be in Berlin at the same dates." "How about..." ""Curves of the Universe"" "instead, Francoise?" "No, no, no!" "No way!" "Nothing from the 1995 series." "Can you picture it?" "At the MOMA?" "It would clash with the space." "We promised "Green Sunbeam"" "to the Hamburger Bahnhof months ago." "They're really counting on it." "Hello Lilas, it's Annabelle." " Are you okay?" " I'm great." "You?" "Are you sure?" "Your mum is worried sick." "Leo called and said you were missing." "I can't be missing if I'm talking to you." "You know exactly what I meant." "So what?" "I have more than 500 pieces in my catalog." "Something will find grace in their eyes, no?" "Listen, Lilas, deep down, she just wants you to be happy." "But you should let her know how you are." "Look, Stephane, honey," "I'm just not feeling it." "Find a solution." "I want "Green Sunbeam" in New York." "Why is she talking about New York?" "The MOMA is having a retrospective of her work in two weeks." "She hasn't told you about it?" "Will she be there?" "No, it looks like she will be in Berlin." "So, Annabelle what's the word?" "She's saying that everything is fine and that you shouldn't worry." "Pass me the phone." "Your mum wants to talk to you." "Lilas, are you completely out of your mind?" "How long am I going to have to endure your childishness?" "I didn't ask for anything." "I am tired." "I have more important things to do." "You are the one who calls me." "I can't believe you passed on the best art school for this crap." "So, you will do as you are told, and come back to Paris." "Annabelle will book a flight for you." "See you tomorrow!" "Surprise." "Hi!" "What's with the suitcase?" "What suitcase?" "Lilas..." "Yeah?" "Did something happen with Leo?" "No." "Well, stop filming me." "Tell me what happened." "Nothing happened." "I just needed a little bit of fresh air." "Listen, I'll be done in an hour." "We'll figure it out." "Okay?" " Why do you work?" " What?" "Why do you work?" "What's your dream?" "Hey honey." "It's me." "I'm just calling to say that I am running a little bit late tonight." "Shouldn't be too bad hopefully." "Should be home a little after 11:00." "Yeah." "Mr., I mean I think I spoke to you a little bit about him, but he passed today, so it's been a little hard." "Make sure to give Maggie her food." "I left it in the fridge and hopefully she'll get in bed at a time..." "Well she should be in bed right now, but okay." "I miss you both, bye." "...that then through a complicated series of molecular attractions lead to the psychedelic effect." "It's not especially well understood, currently, but maybe one day we'll know a little bit better exactly how the effect is produced." "That kind of sounds like a Randy Newman song." "Yeah." "That should have been in Toy Story." "Let me tell you about this one, since we're talking about capitalism and how he's a corporate sell out." "I mean it's kind of like this idea that we're all being watched by the one eye." "Hey guys." "Guys." "This is that book, the book, Give it to the People." "Inside here are all the ideas we need to break the bad karma of this capitalist society." "I didn't know you could read." "No, I'm serious." "Look, this is a very unique single copy." "This is the only copy in the whole wide world and it's this book right here." "You know, I share your etiology, but there I just don't agree." "Yeah, he's definitely right." "You can't change the world with a single copy book." "Hear me out, hear me out, hear me out." "This is participatory." "This has been around since the '70s." "Okay?" "And what happens is when the owner of this book gets it, he reads it and then inside he puts an enlightened idea." "Then when he's done he passes it on to another person he trusts and the idea is to build enough ideas." "Just to build a society based on happiness and creativity." "That's bullshit." "Well, if you're not nice to me" "I'm going to give it to somebody else after I'm done." "Then what?" "The second couch is a little small, but you're not too big so it should be okay." "Okay." "Are you sure it's going to be okay with Leeward and Mary." "Yeah, absolutely." "Excuse me." "Oh, I'm Jocelyn by the way." " Do you want some fruit?" " No thank you." " Nice to meet you." " Are you sure?" "I have strawberries." "Are you sure Shiraz?" "I'm fine, thank you." "See you up there." "See ya." "Now the junkyard on the right." "See the dim and fading light." "Thank you." "I got it fresh this morning." "Up the hill and up the stairs." "Give a shout nobody cares." "Hey guys." "Hi Rainbow." "Move your asses." "Move your asses." "I'm Lilas." "Nice to meet you." "How's your tea?" "Oh, it's beer." "Hey there Mr. Leeward." "Nice to see you Gus." "Did you make that?" "Yeah." "No." "You're a great musician, like your dad." "I became afraid of dinosaurs and my fears became so irrational." "My bar has this crazy open mic night next week." "You should definitely come down and perform." " Okay yeah, yeah." " Yeah?" "Sure." "Cool." "Oh, this is my friend Lilas, by the way." " Oh, hi." " Hi, nice to meet you." "Actually, I think we already met once." " Really?" " Oh, you're the French girl?" " You're French?" " Yes." "Okay, bonjour." "Bonjour, bonsoir." "She actually really needs a place to crash." "I was wondering if she could stay here for a few days, just a few days." "Yeah, okay." "Sure a few days." "Thank you." "Yeah, sure." "See!" "I am going to get a beer." "Can I get you something?" "No, I'm fine." "Thank you." "All right." "One, two, three." "It's Mary." "What's the password?" "I forgot my keys." "That's not the password." "Not very funny." "Open the door." "You're not even close." "Open the fucking door." "All right." "Come on guys." "We should go somewhere else." "Hey Mary!" "Who are all those people?" "What people?" "Come on." "Did you just have a party?" "Well what would you call party?" "Come on Benjamin, there's a three year old in the house." "Can you pick this up?" "Did Maggie eat her dinner?" "Yes." "Yes, Rainbow ate her dinner." "Her soup?" "Half of her soup and a Mr. Freeze." "A Mr. Freeze?" "Mr. Freeze is an ice cream without the cream." "It's so good." "It's good." "No, I know what a Mr. Freeze is." "It's good." "We wrote a song though, we wrote a song." " Really?" " Yeah." "Together." "Did she ask about me?" "Tonight?" "No, but that's just because she was..." "There was a million other people here distracting her?" "Probably." " How many?" " 20." " 20?" " Yeah, thousand." "20,000?" "People." "Seriously, how many?" "15." "14, 13, 12." "Hey, Benjamin, whose suitcase is that?" "Which suitcase?" "That suitcase." "Oh, that suitcase." "That's Lilas'." "That's Shiraz's friend, the French girl." "Why is Lilas the French girl's suitcase in our kitchen?" "Um, she didn't have any place to go." "So where exactly is she going to stay here?" "Under the couch?" "Maybe under the couch, behind the couch or something like that." "Seriously, how long is she staying here?" "A couple of days." "A couple days." "Okay?" "Did you call Ted?" "Ted?" "Ted?" "Ted, the commercial guy." "Ted." "Oh, you mean Ted the commercial guy." "No." "Did Ted call you?" "Yes." "What did he say?" "He said like, "Hey, this is Ted." "I'm the commercial guy." "Would you like to do a commercial with me?"" "What did you say?" "I said, "I'm not sure that I want to do that Ted."" "You told him you don't want to do the commercial?" "I said I'll think about it, but obviously I don't really want to." "Benjamin, it's $5000." "You have to compose one song." "It would be so easy for you." "That would not be easy." "It would not be easy just to compose one song." "This kind of thing would kill my artistic integrity." "Do you realize that it's twice my monthly salary?" "Come on, Benjamin." "I really need your help." "I do help." "I do help." "I found Shiraz." "I just can't." "I just can't live like this anymore." "You know Maggie is in our room with us." "We have no privacy." "Rainbow's very happy." "That's not the point." "The point is is that I'm too old to have all these roommates and now there's two women living here." "Come on." "All right, I will find some money somehow." "I just don't want to do the commercial." "Do whatever you want to do." "I'm really tired." "I'm going to sleep." "What's your poison?" "Rum and coke." "Rum and coke all right." "Thank you." "You should meet my friend Lilas." "She's an amazing artist." "Oh yeah?" "Yeah." "She's here actually." " She's in the bathroom." " Really?" "I would love to meet her." "Always looking for new talent." "Speak of the devil." "Hi, I'm sorry." "I need to go." "My mom just sent me a flight to get home." "Wait, what?" "I'm going back to Paris tomorrow." "No, no, no, no." "You can't leave now." "I just met a curator." "A curator." "Shiraz, Shiraz." "I should introduce you." "I'm serious." "Adam, this is my friend Lilas." "Hey it's very nice to meet you." "Hi." "I heard you make great art." "Um, well I'm trying to." "Yeah?" "What kind of art?" "Visual." "I make experimental videos and that kind of stuff." "Very cool." "Very cool." "You should come show me something." "I would love to see your work." "Come visit me at the gallery some time." "That's kind thank you, but I can't." "I'm leaving New York for good tomorrow." "Tommorrow?" "What time?" "7:00 pm." "Why?" "That's perfect." "Just come in the morning." "Well..." "Well yes." "You should go." "Come on." "I hate to miss a talent." "I'll try." "I'll do my best, but..." " You should." " I can't promise..." "I'm telling you." "Okay well give me your number just in case." "What is it?" "It's 606-555-7966." "7966." "Okay." "Lilas?" "Yeah." "Lilas." "And your last name?" "It's de Castillon." " D-E C-A" " Wait a minute." "Are you related to Francoise?" "She's her mom." "Are you serious?" "I love her." "Her early stuff is absolutely..." "Brilliant!" "Brilliant!" " Brilliant." " She's amazing." "Do you want a drink or something?" "No, I'm fine." "Can I just get a drink." " Hey." " Oh." "Hey." "How are you?" "I'm good." "How are you doing?" "How was your night?" "Very good." "The bar was nice, but apparently that wasn't the place to be." "What?" "You mean?" "Oh here." "This looks nicer." "Yeah, it's cool." "It's so cool here." "It's hot." "You want to sit down?" "Yeah, sure." "Thank you." "Oh, this looks cool too." "Yeah, yeah." "Where did you find it?" "Oh, no I built it." "I built it." "You built all that stuff?" "Yeah, I'm calling it a magic globe." "See here put your hands..." "Put your hands on it." "Like that?" "Oh." "Yeah." "This is actually magic." "Just keep doing that." "Up, down there we go." "Okay here we go." "This is your song that you played tonight." "Yeah." "I don't get a chance to tell you, but I love that song so much." "Yeah?" "Yeah." "I would love to get it on a CD if that's possible." "Impossible." "I don't have a CD." "You don't have a CD for me?" "No." " What?" " I've never recorded it." "You've never recorded a CD in your entire life?" "No." "No I mean, yeah I've never recorded an album or anything." "Why?" "Oh, I don't know." "What about you and your art and your projects and all that." "What are you going to..." "Do you have any plans?" "Actually, I'm going back to Paris tomorrow." "Really?" "Yeah, so you see that's why I need the CD." "Why would you..." "I don't understand." "Why would you go back to Paris?" "I mean New York is a great place for an artist." " It's the best place." " Yeah, yes I know." "It's crazy for example even tonight at the bar I just met with a curator or something and he told me that he wants me to show him my work." "See that's good." "I mean that's what New York's all about is meeting people." "That's awesome." "That means you should probably stay." "My visa is going to expire and" "I don't even know if I want to show my work." "Well, I don't know." "Maybe it's going to be hard but maybe..." "I think you should probably give it a try." "I mean it's worth giving it a try." "Maybe you're right." " I think you should too." " What?" "Record your album." "Record an album." "No." "I have an idea." "If I go to that gallery you go record your first album." "Oh you mean like a deal?" "Yes, like a deal." "Oh, no." "Noway." "You go record an album." "Okay, and you go to the gallery." " Hey, do you want a blanket?" " Yes, thank you." "All right." "Good night." "Good night." "I don't dream that much." "I mean I dream I guess, but I rarely remember my dreams." "When I do remember them I don't understand them." "Last week, for example, I had a dream." "There was a tiny green door in the middle of the desert." "On the other side of the door was the exact same desert except I wanted to be there." "I could have bypassed the door, but no I wanted to go through it." "I tried again and again but I was definitely too big." "Thus, I just sat in front of the door and contemplated the other side." "So, what are you saying?" "How much can you count to?" "21." "Why can't you can't to 22 though?" "Why?" "I don't know." "Morning." "Hey, why don't you sit down with us and have some orange juice?" "No?" "Maggie, I need you to finish your cereal." "Okay?" "Finish it up or you don't get the prize." "No, no." "Not until she finishes her cereal." "Here." "I think your mom would like some cereal." "Tell your mom." "Tell your mom." "No, no I don't want..." "Come on." "Here we go." "Come on." "Momma, eat." "No." "Hey." "Hi." "Hi." "Hi, I'm Lilas." "Nice to meet you." "Hi, nice to meet you." "Thank you very much for letting me stay at your place." "Yeah." "I'm very grateful." " Hey Rainbow." " Hi." "You look cute today." "Thank you." "Well, I need to go." "Bye." "Do you want to see a 2-D movie tonight or a 3-D movie?" "We have Shabbat dinner tonight with your parents." "I'm picking you up at 7:00." "This is for lunch." "I didn't have time to make something." "Maggie..." "Okay thanks." "Give mommy kiss." "I love you." "I've got to go." "Bye." "It looks like you have a whole bunch..." "Okay you have way to much milk left." "Are you going to drink it?" "Do you think we should waste it?" "Okay." "This is what we do." "Do you know why your name's Rainbow?" "What do you like better?" "You like Maggie better or do you like Rainbow better?" " Rainbow." " That's a good choice." "I think Maggie is a shitty name, if you ask me personally." "Okay you ready?" "Watch it carefully." "Watch carefully." "Wow!" "Whoa!" "Did you see that?" "All right, do not drink that milk." "Hello Studio." "Hey, this is Leeward." "I mean my name is Leeward." "How much does it cost to record?" "We can do one-day recording and burn 100 CDs for you for only $999." "That's $999?" "Yeah, dollars." "I'm getting very busy." "Do you want to book a day now?" "No." "Okay." "I was just wondering." "Okay, just let me know." "Thanks." "Hi." "Yes." " Is Adam here?" " He should be downstairs." "Probably be up in just a minute." "Okay, thank you." "Now what was I just saying?" "Iptal?" "Iptal." "Right." "It means cancelled in Turkish." "The X." "So he's in this..." "Hi." "How are you?" "Thanks for coming." "Thank you for inviting me." "So what did you bring me?" "I brought a roll of film." "It's a sample of the video project" "I'm working on." "Great." "I brought the projector." "Perfect." "Let me just find somewhere to plug this in." "Okay, great." " Adam?" " Yes?" "What is this?" "The labyrinth." "That is called Mad Mice Maze." "It's by the Italian artist." "He aims at showing the fragility of life and the severity of destiny." "It's tremendous." "Really?" "You like it?" "Like it?" "I love it." "I mean it's beyond my comprehension." "I don't even know how to explain it." "Actually, you're the first one to see it." " Are you serious?" " Yeah." "I just finished the editing yesterday." "I love it." "I mean it's just..." "the way you capture people's emotions it's like there's no camera at all." "It's magical." "Listen, my boss George he's been commissioned by PS1 to find new and emerging talent for his upcoming show." "Now, he's very demanding but if you can promise you can get a project to me, a full project..." "Sure." "Two weeks." "I'm going to see what I can do okay?" "That would be amazing." "Thank you so much." "Well I mean it was amazing." "I have to do it." "It's the least I can do." "I don't know what to say." "Just say you'll do it." "Allo?" "Mom?" "No, no!" "I'm not coming back." "I'm staying in New York." "I met a gallery curator and..." "How could you say that?" "You've never even seen my work!" "Allo?" "I can't hear you, I'm on the subway!" "You're breaking up!" "Bye, bye, bye!" "Okay, occupation?" "I'm an artist." "Okay, do you have any proof that your art has been shown in an official art venue?" "No, actually it hasn't been shown in an official venue." "Okay, but to get a visa as an artist you can't just say, "I'm an artist."" "You know?" "I mean I could say, "I'm an artist." "I'm an artist."" "But that doesn't make me an artist." "Okay?" "Unfortunately, then we are not able to do anything for you." "It has to be shown at an official venue." "But it will probably be part of the PS1 upcoming show." "Okay." "All right then." "So you come back and you see me at that point." "Okay?" "How can I come back if I'm not allowed to stay in the meantime?" "But you need something to back it up." " You can't..." " Yeah, I know." "All right, well I'll ask my boss, but I really don't think that there's anything that we can do for you." "All right?" "Hang on." "Okay, so the best we can do is give you a 10-day extension." "Okay, but that would be it." "You would not get another one after that." "Okay, sure." "All right?" "Thank you." "Yeah." "Okay, out we go." "Take my hand." "Come on." " Benjamin what are you doing?" " Just putting on my tie." "We're going to be late." "Um, I'm going to do the commercial." "What?" "I'm going to do the commercial." "When?" "Oh, there's a hug for capitalism." "Do you love it?" "Thank you for participating hug." "Oh I do it for you." "Oh Maggie!" "Daddy's song is going to be on TV." "Yeah, on the television lady." "It's open." "It's going to be unbelievable." "People are going to be like..." "Okay, imagine you're watching television and there's a commercial." "There's a hamburger and there's my music." "It's going to be juicy and there's going to be a hamburger and my music and people are going to hear the music and they're going to be like, "I love this music." "I need a juicy hamburger!"" "Is that exciting to you?" "Listen to me." "She doesn't care about the hamburger or my music." "I'm really proud of you." "You love it." "Really?" "Are you proud?" "Yeah, I think it's a really great first step." "Yeah." "First step to what?" "To the participation of the wellbeing of your family." "That's great." "I don't know, maybe we could move." "What?" "Oh is that..." " I didn't know..." "What'd you say?" " So absurd." "No, what'd you say?" "No, I just said maybe we could move." "You know?" "Yeah, move right." " You know I make a little money." " You make a little money." "Well just because I work for Burger Mama doesn't mean I want to be a property owner." "I understand that." "I just thought maybe we were moving past some of these infantile notions of..." "Oh, man." "Come on." " Capitalism." " Really?" "What?" "Right." "You should read GTTP." "What is GTTP?" "You know what it is." "Give to the People." "If you read it you would see..." "I give to the people." "You give to the people?" "Yeah." "What would make me happy would be to spend some time with my family and hang out with..." "Yeah." "Hi." "Hey." "Look." "How are you?" "Hey, what's going on?" "Nothing special." "How about you?" "You're very dressed up." "Yeah." "We're going to a family thing." "Cool." "I love family things." " You do?" " Yeah." "Do you like this kangaroo?" "Is it sweet?" "It's soft." "Look, he likes her." "PS1 that's great." "Does that mean you're staying?" "Yes." "Actually a week or two." "Would it be possible by chance to crash on your couch a few more days?" "Yeah, sure." "Woops." "Excuse me." "Sir!" "Would you fill up for me please?" "Put it on." "Put it on." "You hear me?" "Yeah?" "Would you fill up for me please?" "What the hell are you waiting for?" "I don't have all goddamn night." "Move your ass." "Finally!" "No." "Don't film me." "Please, please, please." "Thank you." "Here." "No, no, no." "He paid for it." "They're here." "Hello." "Shabbat Shalom." "This is our friend Lilas." "Hi Lilas." " Hi, Mary." " Hi Jacob." "How are you?" "Mary!" "You don't feed him or what?" "Doesn't she feed you?" " Nice to meet you Lilas." " She barely feeds me." "Oh, what have you got there?" "What is that?" "This is a box for you." "It's a hat box." "Well, what do you think?" " Do you think it's for you?" " Is it for me?" "Okay, it's for you." " Do you know what it is?" " Neither do I?" "Here we go." "Look at that." "Oh wow!" "Oh my God!" "Oh, it's so elegant and big." "Where will I wear it?" "I'll wear it to..." "Oh the ladies in the mahjahonng club will..." "Wait until they see, and it's pink." " What do you think?" " My favorite." "Let's see it." "We celebrate the seventh day of rest and family reunion." "You cannot have any activities that relate to work." "Okay." "Like what?" "It means you can't handle money, you can't handle fire." "And that's why people who are late who are responsible for us having a cold meal tonight and no smoking." "Are those for me?" "That's really beautiful." "You know it's your birthday next week." "We're going to have a big party for you." "Do you know how old you're going to be?" "Four!" "Wow!" "You're a big girl now?" "So big." "She's going to school next year." "Why does she have to go to school?" "Look how well she draws." "And she makes music too." "She learns a lot with her daddy." "Listen." "School is bullshit." "Parents who don't care for their children well they just send them to school." "So, how is your music going?" "Well if you guys want to know the honest truth I am going to record an album." "What?" "An album really?" "Oh that's great." "I'm just joking." "Stupid." "That's not great." "But actually he's composing music for a commercial." "Yeah, yeah." "A commercial." "Isn't that going to interfere with working on your own music?" "It's going to be for hamburgers." "I'm going to make juicy music for juicy non Kosher hamburgers." "Oh, that's terrible." "You're going to lose your creativity." "Don't do it!" "It's a very, very creative job." "It's a very creative job." "Commercials are evil." "You should all be talking to..." "What do you want me to draw?" "You know anything you want sweetheart." "And it's bringing good money." "So that's great." "Come on." "Let's go." "Well, that's your business." "Well he isn't a child." "He can hold down a job like the rest of us." "He works." "He has a lot to do with his music." "What do you want a drawing of?" "Can you draw me a house?" "Sure I can." "Okay." "Thank you." "What does Leeward really mean?" "Oh Grandma, come on." "I told you a million times, come on." "I know you did, but my brain is old and I'm just getting older." "Anyway, I have a little something for you." "Okay?" "Here." "My favorite candy." "Thank you." "Yeah, well it's not all." "I have something else." "I know it's Sabbath and I know I should not handle money, but you need it." "So, I felt justified." "It's $2000." "It's all I had, but I hope it's going to be enough to keep you from making that commercial." "Grandma this is too much, $2000." "This is too much money." "No, no, no." "It is what I was going to leave you as your inheritance, but I may not be dead but I maybe around a longer time than I thought and you need it now." "All right." "Okay." "Hey Jacob, dinner is ready." "Okay." "Dinner's ready." "Leeward, come on in." "We're ready to it." "I'm sorry, but I just don't think I can do it." "Then the tight rope walker took off his shoes gingerly but unceremoniously." "He climbed up again, took a step, lost his balance and fell, but he knew how to fall, like a cat." "Eventually he climbed the rope and took a step and then started dancing from foot to foot to the applause of the onlookers." "He got to the end, he turned around, danced back to where he started and he finally agreed to reveal his secret." "He told them I keep my eye on where I'm going, but never think of falling." "And then he said, "You know what the hardest part is?" "The hardest part is turning around because when you turn around you lose sight of your goal for a second." "The hardest part is turning around."" "Amen." "Mom wee-wee." "Okay." "Mom wee-wee." "Okay, wait for me." "You all right?" "I'm sorry I hit you in the eye." "She got it in her eye." "Here's some water." "No, keep your eye closed." "No, she needs to put some water on her." "Mom wee-wee." "No, it happened to your father once and he was told keep the eye closed." "She can't stay with her eye closed all night." "Yes, she can." "It's almost bed time." "One eye open, one eye closed." "What difference does it make?" "Keep it closed." "Mom, wee-wee." "All right." "Your eye feeling any better?" "Yeah, it's fine." "Wee-wee." "Come on." "Wee-wee." "I'm really fed up with your family though." "If you don't start asserting yourself," "Benjamin, they're just going to keep treating you like a child." "Here we go." "Come on." "Wee-wee." "Wee-wee." "Wee-wee." "Wee-wee." "There is a game we play where" "I blow on her like a dandelion and she falls." "She falls onto the bed in one piece." "Small people can fall that way." "Yesterday she said wechother instead of each other." "I don't think I'll correct her." "She, he, we chother." "Oh." "Woo!" "Surprise." "Surprise me?" "But I thought it was your birthday?" "It is." "Happy Birthday birthday girl!" "I can't believe she's four years old." "Can you believe she's four years old?" "No." "Time goes so quickly." "Yes, no." "You're such a big girl." "Pretty soon you're going to have to have your own bedroom." "Time for a triple cuddle." "Get over here." "Triple cuddle." "All for you." "What did you make me?" "Toast, orange juice and tea and a banana." "I thought that was a telephone." "A telephone banana." "Okay?" "Hello?" "Yeah, no the birthday girl is right here." "Hold on." " It's for you." " Oh, hello?" "How the commercial is going?" "It's like it goes..." "Hamburger!" "Hamburger." "Hamburger time." "It goes hamburger." "Tell him that it sounds good so far." "It sounds good so far." "Well thank you." "Thank you." "Tell Daddy it's for him and ask him why he never wrote mommy a song." " It's for you." " Hello?" "Why didn't you never wrote mom a song?" "Maybe I have." "Maybe I haven't." "Okay." "Have they paid you?" "The commercial?" "They gave me $1000." "When are they going to pay you the other $4000?" "Soon." "Soon like this week?"

"I still have to finish reading it." "I've got 15 more pages." "Do you have an idea?" "No, not yet." "Ask her to come with us." "Can you come with us?" "Where are you going?" "Through the ditch, past the pool where we met after school." "Past the hotel you're aloof where we threw shit off the roof." "And those radiators in the junkyard, they're all runaways." "Got straight up and ran away." "In the tower on the hills, just a relic from the old days." "Let's pretend that we're runaways." "Let's pretend that we're radiators."

"I know you'll be very happy in this house." "Thanks, you have my numbers call any time." "Thank you." "Mary, it's good to see you." "So there's a lot of interest?" "Oh, yes." "Good people." "They love this place, but they haven't put their name down on anything so it could still be yours if you haven't changed your mind." "No, no, no." "Of course not." "I'm just waiting for my husband." "He should be here any second." "You know I'm just going to call him." "He's been working so hard on that commercial." "He should be here any second." "I understand." "I do need to see a client." "They're only five minutes away." "So if you don't mind I'll just go take care of that and I'll be right back." "Hopefully your husband will be here too." "Would it be all right if I were to wait inside?" "Sure." "Door's unlocked." "I'll be right back." " That was awesome." "Yeah." " Oh thanks." "I really like your music." " You did a great job." " Really?" "Yeah." "Thank you." "Yeah." "I like this studio." "It's awesome." "Tell some other people and come by and do some more too." "Thank you." "I'll have your CDs in about an hour." "An hour?" "Okay." "Yeah, so just come back in like an hour." "Great, all right thanks." "See you later." "So you guys want to get ice cream or something for an hour?" "Ice cream?" "Okay, I'll see you." "What do you want to do?" "Well, I don't want to lose this house." "I'm aware of that." "I have a good feeling about you." "Now, I'm not supposed to do this, but this is what I propose." "You pay half of the first payment right now." "I'll hold the house for you for two days." "Now in a couple of days if you change your mind the house goes back on the market and you lose your deposit." "It's the best deal I have." "Let me just..." "Let me just call him one more time." "I'm sorry." "I understand." "It's my only offer." "I do have to go to another meeting." "Okay, what do I do?" "Okay, so that's a yes." "I need you to sign right here." "All right I will need a check from you for real estate." "All right 6% of 119,000 divided by..." "That will be $3570." "Okay." "You did it." "Congratulations." "Now you can listen to..." "Does it work?" "Want some?" "Free CDs." "Free CDs." "Giving them away." "Hot." "Hot." "Hot." "Free CDs." "Free CD for you." "CDs." "Free CDs." "CDs." "CDs." "Free CDs." "Free CDs."

"Oh, wait a second I can't hear you very well." "You okay?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "I mean..." "I was waiting for you for a while." "Why?" "What do you mean?" "Because of..." "Oh." "You forgot obviously." "The surprise day." "Oh." "Sorry." "Ted called and I had to go." "The client was unsatisfied so there was a problem so I had to go fix the problem." "I had to go over there." "I'm sorry." "What do you mean the client was unsatisfied?" "He was just unsatisfied." "But they're going to pay you right?" "I don't think so." "It didn't sound like it." "They have to pay you if you've done the work." "You have to get paid." "The client's unsatisfied with my music." "Yeah, it doesn't matter if they like your stuff or are happy with it or not happy with it." "If you did the work you have to get paid." "So call him." "Right?" "Yeah." "That's what I'm saying I just talked to him." "I was just there." "I talked to the guy." "I talked to them." "Let me talk to them." " There's no reason for you to call him." " Yes there is." "First of all, I know Ted." "What do you want me to do?" "You want me to call him up?" "And I just think I'm better at handling these matters than you." "You want me to call him and chew him out in front of you." " Is that what you want me to do?" " Yeah." "I want you to..." "All right." "I got it." "I got it." "I got it." "Go, go, go, go." "Jeez." "Do whatever you're doing." "Ted, it's Leeward." "I'm just calling you about the money situation." "Yeah, I mean I understand that the client's unsatisfied but I still don't understand the part where I am not getting..." "Paid for the hours that you put in." "I'm not getting paid for all the hours that I worked and put in." "I mean no, I know you don't like the music." "I worked very hard on it." "That's not the point." "Sorry." " Let me talk." " No, no, no." "No, I know him Benjamin." "Let me talk to him." "Stop it." "Okay, listen." "I'm not going to work with you if you act like this." "This is not a fucking joke." "It's not a fucking joke." "You motherfucker." "See nothing worked." "He said the commercial's canceled." "It's completely canceled." "So he's not going to pay me at all." "That's insane." " The whole thing is canceled." " What?" "The whole thing's canceled." "What do you mean the whole thing is canceled?" "That's what he said?" "Yeah, anyway." "Oh well." "I need you to get that money somehow." "Can you not do that for a second and have this conversation with me?" "Okay, what do you want to talk about?" "I just need you to..." "I'm sorry." "It doesn't sound like it's my fault." "I don't know whose fault it is, but I know that you had a job and that you worked and I'm telling you." "I don't feel like you're hearing me, but we really need that money" "because I did something." "The best thing we can do is just pretend that the commercial never existed." "Right?" "You have an idea that we have this money that we don't have." "What are you going to say?" "There's nothing you can say." "He's not a good person." "Just don't talk to him." "Let me see this." "Stop it." "Okay." "Don't get mad." "The commercial, I wasn't even going to do the commercial." "I never did the commercial." "What?" "What?" " Don't get mad." " I'm not mad!" "Look at me you're getting mad." "You're getting mad." "I'm not mad." "I'm trying to understand what the fuck is going on?" "What do you mean you didn't do the commercial?" "Don't touch me right now." " Did you lie to me?" " No." "Yes, you did." "I was under a lot of pressure." "I don't care what kind of pressure." " Stop it." " Oh, come on." "You're being..." "Don't do this in front of her" "Come on." "Okay, this can't happen any longer." "You have to go." " What are you doing?" " She has to go." " You know what?" " Yeah right..." "This fucking book has to go." "Yeah right." "You want me to go do this commercial?" "Yes, I can't believe that you lied to me about this that you..." "Hold on." "Just give me a second." "I'm sorry." "What?" "Mommy, why isn't my fish moving?" "Oh, wait, wait, wait." "Honey." "Oh God." "Where you going to go?" "Hey it's Adam." "You know how much I liked your project." "I tried talking to them." "I'm really sorry." "The committee felt like it lacked originality." "I mean maybe if your mother could intervene they might listen to her." "Lilas?" "Lilas?" "Man hanging upside Hey Lilas." "Long time no see." "Hey." "Come in." "It's open." "Wait, wait, wait, wait." "A little what?" "Hi." "I got your letter." "I'd like to say that I'm sorry for the way I left." "What do you want?" "I don't know." "You want to leave again?" "You love me?" "You want to be an artist?" "You want to be an animal?" "You want to be safe?" "You want to be pretty?" "You want to love me?" "You want to leave?" "You want to be tied up?" "You want to be let go?" "Why are you still painting that?" "Because I love this painting." "And who's that girl?" "Christina, from Hungary, is lovely, but she wouldn't be here if you didn't leave." "Yeah." "And you're still here." "Look at who it is." "Yeah, I guess I should go." " Why?" " Why did you come?" "I don't know." "Bye Leo." "Hi." "What's up?" "Where is Leeward?" "I don't know." "He didn't show." "Why?" "I don't know." "He's supposed to go on at nine." "We had to put someone else in front of him." "That bitch." "That's fantastic." "You okay?" "Yeah, I'm okay." "PS1 found my art shitty." "I'm so sorry." "My visa is going to expire in two days, but I'm really fine." "Can't you see?" "Don't put the fuck about the visa." "Okay?" "Do like I did, okay?" "I come here, I meet this guy Pablo." "I sleep on his floor for one year." "Nothing come from me." "Okay?" "You just overstay and rock on." "Rock on girl!" "Rock on girl!" "Do like me, I've been fucked by Pablo and all the other jankies in this pub, but that's fine." "I don't need a visa for that." "That's great." "Give me the glass." "Rock on girl." "Okay, you need to stop." "Do you want to talk?" "Lilas?" "Well, I assume the PS1 thing didn't pan out or you would answer the phone." "Don't say I didn't warn you." "Your message has been deleted." "New message." "Lilas, I asked you to call me back." "I don't have any news, I'm starting to worry." "So, callm e back." "Call me right away!" "Your message has been deleted." "New message." "Lilas, it's very late in Paris." "I'm going to bed." "I'll be in New York tomorrow for the MOMA retrospective." "I hope to see you there." "I miss you." "Hey." "Can you sing a song for me?" "Please." "Yes." "Let's see..." "Flashlights on the concrete, today in every paper we read that he never made a sound, drove a gentle boy from town." "So, latch the windows as families take their rest and she said this is how I like the house the best." " What are you..." " Come here." "What are you doing?" "Come here." "Come on." "Lay down." "Come on." "Here, here." "Just lay down okay." "Here." "There you go." "All right?" "You should go to sleep, all right?" "Okay." "Hey." "Finish the song." "Flashlights on the concrete." "Today in every paper we read that he never made a sound." "Drove a gentle boy from town so latch the windows as families take their rest and she said this is how I like the house the best when all" "I hear is nothingness." "Maggie, what kind of pizza do you want?" "Maggie!" "I'm sorry." "Can you hold on one sec?" "Hey!" "Maggie." "Can you take your headphones off for a second honey?" "I'm talking to you." "Come on take these off." "Hey!" "One at a time please." "Mister with the blue shirt, what is your question?" " I - don't mean to be rude, but don't you think it's a little bit too easy?" "Do you think art can be just one color or one plan?" "How can you account for the simplicity of your work?" "You know, by letting the untouched parts talk, I allow reality to take over." "I merely act as a sort of catalyst, a filter." "Do you understand?" "I don't really understand." "What's the link between emptyness and reality?" "Emptiness is filled by the face and the voice of the Other." "You often refer to the" "How would you explain your relationship to the art." "Mrs. de Castillon?" "The artist is irrelevant." "So is the piece." "What matters is what emanates from it." "What people allow themselves to see in it." "That's beautiful, but concretely I mean..." "What do you see?" "Honestly?" "First I see nothing." "Then a deep nothing, and then if I really try hard I can just my out my shadow." "Interesting." "It speaks volumes about your relationship with reality." "Now if you'll excuse me." "Mrs. Castillon says it's part of the show." "Yeah, she'd like the lights to be switched off."
