"Come over." "Nah, I can't do it." "Why not?" "I kinda got a date." "You kind of got a date." "Lies." "Seriously..." "Did you call a hooker?" "Nah, she seems like a nice, clean girl." "A nice, clean girl." "And since when was that a priority for you?" "Her name is Kathy." "I don't think you know her." "You don't think I know her." "Kathy, the fuckin' tramp!" "I know her." "She works down the fuckin' street." "[cell phone ringing]" "Hey, babe." "No, I'm just out with Alex." "I'll be home soon." "No, I'm not smokin'." "Fuck off!" "Yeah, I paid it..." "A few weeks ago." "Look, I paid it three weeks ago, and I" "I'll call you later, okay?" "All right." "Whatever..." "I'm going." "I'm going now..." "Okay, bye." "Oh, fuck." "Wanna go get some breakfast?" "Nah." "I think I'd rather sleep a couple of hours tonight." "You're fuckin' whipped already - see?" "A man can't own his own cock in this world." "Fuck!" "Please!" "Forget it." "I work in three hours." "I know you don't know what that's like." "I make my own hours, buddy." "Right..." "Go fuck yourself." "What do you want?" "I'm sorry." "I'm so wrong." "I'm a horrible boyfriend" "So you don't care?" "I care, I just" "Okay, relax." "It's one bill." "Have I ever missed a payment before?" "Yes!" "Okay, but not utilities." "Hydro, Mark!" "They called last night, ready to kill our power." "Well, they didn't." "You'd be giving yourself pedicures in the dark." "Not to mention your friend down there." "It's not like your record's spotless." "Anyway, he's the only reason we can afford the mortgage on this place." "Don't get me started on the mortgage." "Look, my fuckin' grandmother" "Your grandmother chained us to this sinking ship, with all due respect." "As for Alex, he's got the sweetest deal in town." "Son of a bitch." "What the hell is this?" "Every towel I own is soaked." "I'm late for work." "Can we just pretend for one second that you're my responsible landlord and not my shitass friend?" "Fuck." "Let me throw some clothes on and I'll take a look." "Hurry up." "I'm supposed to be in at noon." "Deadline today?" "Yep." "Hey, I'm just ordering a pizza here." "We'll get two meals out of it and I'm short on cash" "Mark, that card's almost at its limit." "I don't get paid again till next week." "Well, I get an EI check on Friday, so don't worry." "I don't even think I'll be around for dinner, hon." "No time." "There's still Chinese in the fridge." "I'd like to order an extra large cheese pizza." "It doesn't make sense!" "You're not staying, are you?" "No, I can't." "I have to go to work." "Yeah, just cheese." "No, no." "Just cheese." "Hey, I gotta go to work." "Can you just look into" "And can you throw in just a little bit of that dippy garlic sauce there?" "Yeah, just put it right in the box." " Later, Alex." " Thanks." "I need you to stay a few hours late again today." "Paulie's wife has an appointment." "I can't tonight." "Why?" "What's the matter with you?" "Nothing - just family plans." "Med school?" "That's really something." "It's what I've always wanted to do." "When I was a little girl and adults asked me what I wanted to be when I grow up, I always said doctor." "So did you go to university?" "Well, Mark needed me." "I had some acceptances, but..." "Wait a sec." "So, you and Mark " "You guys aren't in school or anything?" "Want some more wine?" " No, thanks." " You sure?" "Well, what do you do?" "Kinda long story." "[voice message] Dangler, what's up?" "Your key's in the mailbox." "Pick it up, go downstairs, tell me what you think." "I had a guy down there." "He said it's gonna be done any time now." "It's practically done." "I swept the floor." "It's all over to the side, so you can just put that in a garbage bag or whatever." "Um, the pipes are pretty much" "You can't even see them hardly anymore, and nothing's really on the floor, so you'll be all right." "Hopefully we'll drink one down later, buddy." "Gimme a call." "Bye." "The good ol' days." "It was just you and me back then." "What the hell are you doing here?" "I dunno." "Tom asked me to come down here and deal with this, so" "Well, deal with it later, all right?" "Did the pathetic mating ritual not go so well?" "I see she didn't come back here to conceive your first born." "Gimme a break, huh?" "Hey, there's no water." "So if you're gonna shit, shit in a bucket." "And if you're gonna fuckin' jerk it, you better use a towel or somethin' to wipe your hands." "Why don't you just take a second and calm the fuck down before you go and blow a hundred dineros on a fuckin' bus ticket?" "I'm calm, I'm calm." "I just need to get outta here." "Okay, seriously, it wasn't my fault." "It's fuckin' Tom." "He's been on my case all week." "You don't have to apologize for anything." "The plumber's been called, things will be back to normal in two, three days tops." "Can you not do that?" "Take a look at that." "Okay, so?" "You've aged really poorly?" "I spend every cent I make." "I've worked three years and I've got nothing to show for it." "What the fuck did you expect?" "!" "Kids have fuckin' stupid dreams, man." "You're 28 years old now." "Grow up!" "What is that supposed to mean?" "It means have fun, make the most of it, indulge." "That's what life's about." "Well, life is too long for it to suck this bad." "Oh, fuck." "Suck this bad?" "Seriously, man, you spent four years of your life in Toronto and now it's your big vacation destination?" "I'm stuck here with Tom with his panties all in a little fuckin' ball - bitchin' at me all the time." "We haven't had sex in three months." "I mean, seriously." "Stay." "We'll go out, we'll get trashed." "What about that fuckin' bitch?" "Kathy is staying in to do some pleasure reading." "Pleasure reading?" "Sounds like she's probably taking it in the ass from her old man." "I'm kidding - she's probably just sucking' him off." "I need to get outta here." "Wait!" "Hold on." "What's up with you, man?" "Is something going on between you and Tom?" "No, everything's fine in paradise." "Look, he's got his own shit to deal with." "I dunno, it's" "Anyway, I was thinking..." "Wait a couple hours, catch the next bus." "I'll get my stuff." "Mark!" "It's not like you're a rich man." "We'll split the hotel room, probably get a deal on the bus tickets." "Don't leave me here alone, man." "Yeah!" "I hate you." "Seriously, do you know that?" "You see that?" "Oh, come on!" "Take a picture inside my mouth." "Would you grow up?" "You want a picture of your mouth?" "Can you get" " I'm reading." " I'm trying to take a photo." " I'm trying to read." " You don't read!" "I said turn it off!" "What are you doing?" "Oh, God..." "That's disgusting." "Are you gonna take it off?" "Shut up." "Shut up!" "Would you stop it?" "Sorry, I'm gonna have to take a raincheck on dinner." "It's not our evening I'm worried about." "Why are you on a bus?" "Mom, relax." "What did you tell them at work?" "Your friend's been in the bathroom a long time." "I'm Julie." "This is Crystal." "Hi." "Hi." "Alex, what are you doing with yourself?" "Mom, I'm an adult." "I'm not going back to school." "My life is here." "So are you guys headed to Toronto?" "What are you doing?" "Let go of my camera." "They were afraid you maybe jerked yourself to death." "So, what are you boys doing in the city?" "Well, we're actually not" "Hang on." "It's a long ride." "Why don't we change up seats for a bit?" "So it's easier to talk." "Smart idea." "Can I have the fuckin' window seat?" "Yeah." "Thanks." "Tell me how old you are." "How old do you think I am?" "28, wow." "Yeah, it just kinda snuck up on me." "So how long have you two known each other?" "Forever." "Well, we've been pretty tight since high school." "The further I get away from my high school friends, the better." "I've just grown up a lot this past summer, you know." "Well, what do you do for a living?" "I'm an independent consultant." "Got a couple of jobs on the go." "Yeah, I'm actually" "We're actually kinda shooting' from the hip here, because Alex there's havin' a bit of a nervous breakdown." "We figured we'd get him away from the cruel, wicked world for a little while." "Favorite evolutionary ancestor of man?" "Australopithecus Afarensis." "Homo Erectus." "Piltdown Man all the fuckin' way." "Parry Sound." "We're gonna hit the ladies room and freshen up." "Cool." "I think we're kinda starving', so we're just gonna grab" "No, not enough time!" "I'm gonna grab something over there and stretch my legs out for a minute." "Dude, we got 15 minutes!" "We'll eat the subs on the bus." "Come on - 14 minutes." "Okay, fine." "Quit it!" "Sweet." "Can you spot me for this one?" "Dude, I don't even know if I have enough cash on me." "Smells like someone's been smoking a little reef in here." "Hello?" "Hey, I'll have veal on a bun with extra roasted red peppers." "I'll have the same, but with hot peppers." "Dude, that sign's calling my name." "It's my new mission in life." "You keep Cheech distracted." "So, it's just you here today?" "No, man." "It's just me here." "Right..." "Not too busy, huh?" "No, man, slow day today." "The deed is done." "Am I wrong or is that our fuckin' bus?" "You fucking idiot!" "Hey, you wanted the fuckin' subs." "Oh, great." "The bus is here, now you threw your sandwich." "What the fuck am I supposed to do?" "Not throw your fuckin' sandwich." "Cocksucker..." "Get up off the fuckin' ground, you cunt." "Get up!" "Fuck!" "Here, take it..." "I've got a vest." "Look, just go get yourself another sandwich and we'll figure this out." "All right." "There should be some change in my wallet." "There should be some change in my wallet, which is on the bus." "Well, I got mine, but it's just plastic." "And it's not like I actually carry any money in my bank accounts." "All right, fun's over." "We head back." "Call your mom or Tom and..." "I don't know - just get our asses back to Sudbury." "Probably be home in time for Conan." "Jesus..." "Take it easy, man." "It's not the end of the fuckin' world here." "I mean, you could be living under some military dictatorship." "Fuckin'...people starving in the streets, selling their kid for two bucks." "Mom's out working the fuckin' hooker shop, tryin' to pay the bills, and dad's out there pickin' cans in the garbage." " Kids dying' all over the place." " Just shut up!" "We're not going back anywhere." "We'll make this work." "Just leave your sandwich and let's get the fuck out of here." "I'm not leaving the chips." "Oh, the name on this credit card is Tom?" "Uh, yeah, he's my partner." "We're living together." "You know, we're married, for all intents and purposes." "That's a great sweater." "Thanks." "Don't you think she looks pretty in that sweater?" "Yeah, yeah." "Okay, I'm sure you'll understand, sir, that we're always very careful with our customer security." "And in a case like this we like to call the cardholder to authorize the purchase." "That wouldn't be a problem, except for I didn't explain this correctly." "Sorry, let me do it again." "Actually, my partner is on his way to Toronto right now." "He's actually flying to meet us there, so we're supposed to take the car and then we're gonna go join him." "So he's not actually available." "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." "Anyway, it's not your fault." "We can't actually do that, but it's all right." "Oh, okay, no problem..." "Sorry about the confusion." "It's not a problem." "Do you need a second key for your" "Friend." "Single friend." "And no, no key." "Just one's good." "So if we add up the driver's insurance and the vehicle insurance" "And the 'where the fuck did that come from' insurance." "What are you talkin' about?" "Well, you need insurance to rent" "That's included in the $29.95?" "No, it's extra." "We want the $29.95 deal, okay?" "That's what you told me when we came in the door." "You're sittin' here in your little sweater." "That's our policy, sir." "I understand, but my policy is I don't get fucked around by people." "Would you like to speak to my manager?" "Why don't you just give the old fuckin' manager a call?" "George, I have a problem..." "George!" "Can I please talk to you?" "Mark, will you shut up?" " Can I please talk to him?" " I'll be outside." "Just one second." "Thank you very much." "Hello, George." "Yes." "My colleague and I were just trying to get to Toronto and we're running into some trouble here." "On the road again..." "You know - maybe I just don't want to drive anymore." "Would you just" "I don't want to drive anymore." "Jesus!" "So the grandiose adventure continues." "Despite your best efforts." "Dude, those fucking charges were bullshit." "That fuckin' bitch is there to serve us, not" "She's a stuck-up wage slave!" "Probably lining her own pockets with that cash." "Besides, all this is on Tom's credit card, so I'm the one who's fucked anyway." "Look, I'll pay for the car." "We'll get our bags as soon as we get to Toronto." "See those old ladies?" "Pretend like you're giving me a blow job." "Would you keep your eye on the road?" "Pretend like you're giving me a blow job!" "I don't wanna die." "All right?" "Come on!" "It'll be fuckin' hilarious." "Pretend like you're blowing me!" "Just bob your head a little bit." "Come on..." "Will you grow up, man?" "You used to be a hell of a lot more fun than you are now." "Well, I didn't ask you to come along." "If you'd just let me explain and complain to that guy, we could have got the return tickets for free." "I just wanted our bags." "The driver was right there." "It was about to turn into a fuckin' fiasco." "Well, paying for two rooms is stupid." "Look, I'll pay the difference." "Whatever, man." "My key's fucked." "Get up, buddy!" "Forget it." "I'm not up yet." "You'll waste the whole day." "I can't talk." "I'm sleeping." "Would you get out of here!" "Come on!" "You'll waste the whole day." "I can't talk!" "I'm sleeping!" "You look up." "Get out of here." "Seriously." "I've got stuff I want to do alone today." "All right." "Don't be all surprised." "You're the one that wanted to tag along." "Then I'll just take a scenic drive of beautiful Toronto." "It is a beautiful city, you fuckin' ingrate." "See ya." "Wait a sec." "I need the car." "What the fuck's your problem?" "This seems like a reasonable compromise." "I just want to do this on my own." "Last time I was here I didn't even know you." "Yeah, must have been fuckin' wicked." "Can you just wait in the car?" "Hi there." "Um, I'm just wondering if you can help me out." "I used to live here when I was younger, and..." "Well, there used to be some houses here." "Do you know...?" "Well, actually..." "I'm sorry." "I think the door downstairs is supposed to be locked." "Yeah, I just, um..." "The construction here - do you know how recently" "Actually, you know, it's private property." "I just wanted to ask you" "Yeah, I got some business I need to do, so..." "Hold on." "Why do you have to be like that?" "I'm asking you - why do you have to be like that?" "The guy's got a question for you, he used to live here - you can't answer?" "I've got some work I need to do here." "That's all right." "You don't have 15 seconds." "You got some work to do?" "I'm just kiddin', man." "Fuck ass!" "Let's go." "I used to live here, you know." "You're gonna die here, you know." "Convenient." "See, that's what I'm talking about, man." "That's what people are like in this world." "Yeah, thanks for what you did back there." "I've never really told you this, but I" "Well, goddamn!" "Look who it is!" "Our female counterparts." "Just tell them that you're gay and that I'm not interested." "Shut up." "Let's have some fun with this." "Surprise, surprise!" "Look who it is." "Our two most favorite ladies in the whole wide world." "Why hello, gentlemen." "What are you two lovely ladies doing on this fine afternoon?" "We're headed down to Queen Street for a little shopping." "Wanna come?" "Be nice, say hi to the boys." "Hi." "Sure, we're not really doing anything anyway." "Right..." "Um, not me, sorry." "I'm just gonna go back to the hotel and take a nap." "What?" "What are you guys doing that I can't afford to miss?" "What did you come here for if you're just not gonna do anything?" "Have a good time, guys." "Suit yourself, buddy." "Leave me with the two ladies." "So, how was the rest of your trip?" "It was bumpy." "We missed you guys." "Yeah, no shit." "We thought that maybe you ditched the trip." "Oh, yeah." "Look, I don't even wanna go there." "Are you hungry?" "Um, yeah." "I am hungry." "I want something sweet and Torontoey though - like nothing you can get in" "What's something sweet and Torontoey?" "Like a big fat cookie with some white chocolate on it or something?" "Mmm, nothing you can get in Sudbury." "Yeah, no shit." "Hands off my swing, bitch!" "It's mine now, baby." "What about you there, talkative?" "What about me?" "Did you buy anything?" " Yeah." " Like?" "She got an organic ice cream cone." "An organic ice cream cone." "Gee, that's about as exciting as your shirt." "Gee, that's about as exciting as your entire conversation!" "Oh, I kinda liked it." " Be nice." " We were having fun." "Oh, wow." "Hey." "What are you doing in the city?" "Uh, I'm just visiting." "Look, I don't know what to say" "I was hoping maybe we could sit down and..." "Yeah..." "You can come on in." "Looks like you're doing okay for yourself." "I guess I'm all right." "Just when I think the well's run dry, something else comes along." "I did manage to save enough money to do all this." "How's your mother?" "I dunno." "She's...fine." "She's found a good thing for herself." "How's Richard?" "Christ, I didn't even know you knew his name." "Richard's been gone for a year now." "I'm sorry." "I don't know if Sudbury's working out for me anymore." "I mean, you left..." "The city isn't cheap, Alex." "You know what you'd pay for an apartment in Toronto?" "I could work around that." "You need a plan first, Alex." "Dad..." "Just don't rush into anything - that's my advice." "Sure." "Thanks." "Did you come all this way just to see me?" "No." "No, Mark was in town, so I tagged along and..." "Hey, no." "Not necessary." "Just in case." "No, it's okay." "Please." "Take care of yourself, eh?" "Yeah." "[cell phone rings]" "Hello?" "Alex?" "It's Tom." "Hi." "Is Mark with you?" "No, actually." "He's not." "We kinda split up for the day." "Had enough of him on the bus ride?" "Your boyfriend's a sick man." "I used to think he was a laugh riot." "So you're on your own then?" "Yeah, pretty much." "I got some things to sort out." "I can't believe he let you out of his sight." "Aren't you guys supposed to be joined at the hip or something?" "I dunno." "Mark's being Mark." "Know what I mean?" "Yeah, I know what you mean." "I'm gonna leave a message for him at the front desk." "If you ever do see him again, let him know I called." "Will do." "Bye." "Honey, I'm home." "What's up?" "Now what's up with that?" "They deposited my unemployment check today." "What?" "We saw this lady get her head caught in an elevator." "Like, the doors wouldn't stop..." "So you been here all afternoon?" "Tom called." "Oh, thanks." "Well, are you gonna call him back?" "I dunno, man..." "Things are fucked." "I love Tom, okay?" "And I don't regret moving in with him." "And I still love him." "For a while now things have been kinda fucked." "Buddy, when you guys got together it pretty much tore your parents apart." "That's their problem!" "You're blaming me for that?" "No, it's just sometimes it's like you're living in a different world." "You have no idea how that felt." "Yeah, you were there, but you didn't" "I don't just mean with Tom." "Do you ever look around yourself ever and realize that what we have here isn't a normal friendship?" "I mean, normal friends go out for drinks, and..." "Well, they aren't" "Let's not get over-excited here." "All right, so here's the plan, okay?" "We'll go get a bite to eat, then fuckin' party time tonight with Julie and Crystal, see a bit of the city, maybe check out a club." "I think that crazy chick has a thing for me." "What the fuck?" "In case you didn't realize," "Crystal and I didn't exactly hit it off." "We're just talking about a fun night out here." "We're not talking about" "Look, do not be a fuckin' recluse." "You mean you don't like vaginas anymore?" "You came here, you're gonna sit in your hotel room all day?" "I didn't come here to get drunk with a bunch of teenage girls" "I barely know." "Fuck yourself." "You've been actin' fuckin' hostile since we left Sudbury." "And for a fuckin' while now you've been on this pretentious trip where your friends aren't good enough for you, and everything I fuckin' do is a waste of your time." "We're like twins." "Look, man, no one understands my shit like you do." "You went through all of it with me." "And I know you better than you know yourself, so just cut the fuckin' bullshit." "Let's go home." "This, whatever it is, it's over." "It's almost 8." "I'm going back to the hotel and change." "Hi, Kathy." "It's Alex calling... calling from Toronto." "I had some free time so I wanted to call and see what you're up to." "I hope everything's all right." "I had a really, really great time the other night, and I guess I'll talk to you later." "Okay, bye." "Tell Crystal I'll be there to brighten up her evening." "You can tell her your own fuckin' self." "She'll be here any minute." "I didn't know they were-- [knocking on door]" "Here." "Well, tell them I'll be five minutes." "Fancy!" "He's not ready yet, so direct your complaints accordingly." "Alex, you're ruining the whole fuckin' evening!" "Okay, well..." "Do you guys know where we're going?" "Um, I dunno." "There's a pretty good pub at the campus we're staying at." "Well, go get changed!" "Okay, I'll be fast." "Crystal, go help him get dressed." "Right." "So, you're staying at the university?" "Okay, hold on." "You already told me all that meaningless bullshit back on the bus, right?" "So when do I get to actually learn something about you?" "You know basically all there is to know." "Not really." "Why does it matter?" "I guess it doesn't." "Okay, well, I'll get the fuck outta here?" "No, just - sit down." "Ask me something." "Okay." "Okay, if you could be any kind of animal, what kind of animal would you be, and why?" "A shark..." "Because I like to swim." "Mark, oh..." "No, you're boring!" "Well, what the fu..." "You're not that boring." "All right, and yourself?" "You're so exciting, you carry a guitar around everywhere you go?" "Why'd you bring a guitar here?" "I was gonna..." "I was gonna serenade you with it." "You were gonna serenade me?" "Yeah." "But now I'm too shy." "Well, don't t be too nervous." "Now you have to." "You can't-- I hate that." "People are like, tell you one thing and then they don't do it." "You gotta do it." "Okay, well if I play, will you play something after?" "So we can just forget it?" "Okay." "All right."

"We got ourselves locked in the school overnight." "Before long we were both trashed in the photography lab." "Hey, this wasn't my idea!" "In fact, the whole thing turns into a typical Mark fuck-up." "Next thing I know this guy's running out into the hallway like an idiot." "He said nothing about a security guard when he convinced me to go along with this." "I could tell some stories myself." "We were terrible." "So are you as much of a ladies man as your friend over here?" "I didn't date much during..." "Hold on." "I'll be right back." "You all right?" " You care?" " What?" "I feel like I'm being fuckin' crucified out there." "You were ripping into the poor girl." "I barely said anything."

"I don't think we should just go in a random direction." "We should probably choose, or we could wind up" "In the what?" "In the wrong part of town." "I don't think there are too many wrong parts of town here." "I'm stuck." "I'm stuck...in the wrong part of town!" "Are you gonna give me a piggyback ride?" "Yeah?" "Stand up straight." "Shut up." "I'm drunk." " Stand up straight!" " Shut up!" "Come on." "Get on this fuckin' pole!" "Wishful thinking." " No, don't!" " Oh, yeah." "So are you gonna write down your number for me, or what?" "Why?" "Um, so I can call you when I get back home in the middle of nowhere?" "You're gonna fall." "What are you - permanently depressed or something?" "If you fall, I don't really know what I can do for you." "Gee, that's romantic." "I didn't realize you had that in you." "Romantic..." "Listen, we're drunk, and you are fucking incredible." "But I'm old and you're young, and I think we should probably restrict tonight's pleasures to just getting drunk and falling off of these things." "Well, first of all..." "loser - you look a lot younger than you say you are." "Do I?" "And, second of all..." "I'm 21!" "Hmm, well." "Why are you actually in Toronto?" "Uh, um, Julie's following some guy she met from Halifax in a bar." "Yeah, but what about you?" "Why are you here?" "Um..." "I'm the sidekick." "I'm usually the sidekick." "That's a pretty respectable job, you know." "Sidekick to your friend, the shithead?" "He has his moments." "Yeah, sure." "So what about you?" "Do you have any moments?" "I had a lot to drink." "Just give it some time, okay?" "Oh, sorry." "Mark's song, right." "Is that true?" "A virgin?" "No..." "Is that true?" "You're a virgin?" "Let's go have some drinks." "Yeah?" "And then what?" "Um, I dunno." "Ultimate frisbee..." "Nude." "Okay, this is not a good idea." "The neighborhood watch is gonna be on you in 5 seconds." "Whatever." "You don't wanna be here, you can go stand outside on the sidewalk." "All right, either you're just totally not interested in me or there's something else going on." "Either way, I wish you'd just tell me so I knew what the deal was." "What deal?" "There's no deal." "There's no deal." "I thought your whole American psycho thing was charming at first, but now you've been stalking the streets like a madman for, like, 2 hours." "And you're saying there's no deal?" " Shut up." " Fuck off." "You're afraid of me?" "Kind of." "What do you expect?" "You're fucked." "Why don't you just go back to wherever it is you came from." "See ya." "What if Julie shows up?" "To hell with Julie." "She's a big girl." "I hope Mark's all right." "I just want the car keys." "She's gone now." "I didn't want to" "I haven't been able to stop thinking about this one night, back when we were just finishing high school." "You and Mark." "Yeah." "It was the time we both stayed at school overnight." "He talks about this all the time." "His parents were hearing rumors and he just didn't want to go home and deal with it." "We hid in the boys' showers until everyone else had left, then had the school to ourselves until morning." "What did you talk about all night?" "Mark came clean with his folks that day." "Told them everything." "Can I ask you something, Alex?" "Shoot." "I need to know what happened in Toronto - with Mark." "Yeah, well, you know..." "I guess we got on each other's nerves." "We're not exactly talking." "I mean, was Mark with someone else?" "What?" "No, we just hung around." "Where would you get that from?" "Alex." "Nothing happened." "Mark did mention that you guys were having some trouble." "Yeah." "So..." "What happened with this date you had the other night?" "Seeing her again?" " It didn't work out." " How come?" "Lack of interest." "On whose side?" "Oh, that sucks." "I dunno, you just kinda looked all...sprightly when you walked in here." "I thought maybe something was up." "I guess you haven't heard the latest news." "The short version's that I'm leaving town for a while." "That's the first I've heard of it." "Does Mark know?" "[voice message] Buddy, it's me." "I'm at a gas station in somewhere that is not Toronto and not Sudbury." "So, uh, look, anyway, have you heard from Tom?" "I can't get a hold of him and I'm worried that that fuckin' car rental bitch might have called or whatever, so..." "Okay, bye." "[new message] Hey, I'm back." "Are you down there or what?" "I called your mom and she hasn't heard from you either, so fuckin' give me a shout when you get back and we'll drink some beers." "Bye." "[cell phone rings]" "Alex..." "Get up here, man." "He left last night." "His sister came here this morning with a van." "Apparently she has an extra room at her place." "Moving the furniture?" "I mean, give it some time" "No..." "I don't think so." "You don't..." "No, 'cause we talked." "He's gone for good." "It's over." "I don't know what I'm gonna do now." "I don't know." "It'll be all right." "It's okay." "It's not even just the obvious stuff." "Like, you know, I can't make the mortgage on my own - even if I do get someone else in downstairs." "I need you to stay here with me in Sudbury, you know, just for a little while." "I'm not staying, man." "So you're just gonna fuckin' leave me?" "Would you relax!" "I gotta go." "I was thinking - you could move into the basement." "It's cozy when it's not flooded." "Thanks for the advice." "Seriously, you bastard, you'd make twice as much rent, why don't you" "Get the fuck out!" "Get out!" "You all set then?" "Yeah..." "Yeah, I think so." "Sure you gave your ride the right time?" "Yeah, he's still okay." "It's only five to." "See ya' then, man." "Yeah." "Take care of yourself." "Keep in touch, eh?" "For sure." "I'll be around." "Oh, I almost forgot..." "Brand new, actually." "Only used it a couple times." "Yeah, I just washed my hands down there and it looks like the plumbing's broken." "Go figure." "Well, good luck." "The landlord of this place is a fucking asshole."
