"Oh, basically the man bought my silent Velcro patent." " What?" " I developed this little item." "It's just like Velcro, but it doesn't make that... the Velcro noise." " So, howmuch did they buy it for?" " A lot, man!" "Wow." "So, what are you doing with yourself?" "Um, yeah, nothing." "Nothing." "I've never been so bored in my whole life." "First month, I went out, you know." "I bought a whole bunch of shit." "But, you know" " Nothing." "Someone got a joint for me?" "Mmm." "Here you go." "Ugh." "No thanks, man." "Really?"

"" "I'm not playing "Spin the Bottle. " Howold are we?" "More importantly, howold are they?" "Oh, they're all legal..." "I think."

"So, Tim howlong have you been working at Medieval Times?" "Three years, but I've only been a knight for two." "You have to pay your dues." "I worked in the stables and helped in the kitchen." "When I started, he was making the coleslaw." "Hasn't been the same since you got knighted." "I really just stirred it." "Don't be modest!" "Mr. Modesty won the joust last night." " Congratulations." " It's not that big a deal." "It's fixed." "What was it that happened to you in high school?" "You had a thing." "I forgot what it was." " He got the shit kicked out of him." " No, he didn't." "Howdo you know?" "He got the shit kicked out of him by Tyrell Freeman." " I fucked him up, too." " He knocked your teeth out." "He only chipped one tooth." "So, what are you up to now, Mark?" "You're digging graves?" "Mark's gettin' into real estate." " Tim can speak Klingon." " What?" " No, I can't." " Yes, you can." " What the fuck is Klingon?" " Like the Star Trek guys?" " Yeah, he can speak their language!" " No, she's kidding." "No, I'm not." "Why are you being shy?" " Yeah, don't be shy, Tim." " It's just, it's made up." "This guy who plays the wizard at work is a Trekkie." "I don't" "Don't be shy." "Tell them what you said to me last night." " No." " Say what you said to her last night." "Kuntar petiki maya." "Al fuks su." "You got to be kidding me." "It means, "I like to mate after battle. "" " That's not what I said!" " Yes." "No, no." "That wasn't the one I said." "This one means, "Kill Kirk. "" "And also, "Hallelujah," depending on the context." "You must have gotten it confused with plejit amor eke frek ize ka." "Ah!" "That is good!" "You knowwhat that means, Tim?" "Well, I do." "It means, "Get the fuck out of my house before I chop your fucking head off. "" "Mark, he's a knight." "He's just a fast-food knight." "I should get going." "Thanks for the cereal." "I had a lovely evening." "By the way, it says "balls" on your face." " Asshole." " My mom did it." "In the spring." "the hungry gator must find new and clever ways to find food." "Did you tell Large about the tapes?" "No, Mom." "I'm not doing those stupid tapes." " What are the tapes?" " Real estate tapes." "You could make up to $100,000 your first year." "You should have seen the boat this Oriental guy had." "And he even had his own game show in China, he had so much money." "I think Mark would be perfect at it." "Ma, shut up about those fuckin' tapes, OK?" "It's a scam." "Well, I'm doin' it." "I'm savin' up for those tapes." "Because I knowwhat you could be if you just apply yourself." "I do apply myself every day, Mom." "I work my ass off burying dead people, OK?" "I'm only 26." "I'm not in any rush." "What's your rush for?" "Just let me be." "I don't rush you." "OK, then I'll do 'em myself." "Fine, do 'em." "OK, then I won't let you on my yacht." "Except Large." "Large, you can come anytime you want." "Just don't bring your friend here." "Oh, shit." "Shit, I got to go to my meeting." "OK." "I love you." " I love you, too." " I love you." " Large, it was nice to see you." " Nice to see you, too." "Oh, oh, you guys." "Don't stay in here all day." "I took the batteries out of the carbon monoxide detector." "It was beeping all night." "She drives me crazy!" "She gets all baked out and makes me feel like I have to impress her." "And you knowwhat?" "I'm OK with being unimpressive." "I sleep better." " Hey, what time is it?" " No idea." "Oh, my" " I got to go." "Hi." "I'm AndrewLargeman." "I'm sorry, I'm really late for my appointment." "Andrew, Andrew..." "OK, Andrew." "I'm gonna need you to fill out this paperwork for me, OK?" " As soon as we're ready, we'll call you." " Thank you." "I'm sorry." "It's OK." "Have a seat." "Hello, Miss Lubin." " Oh, hello there." " Have a seat." "We'll be with you soon." " Thank you." " You're welcome." "How's it goin'?" "Get off!" "Get off!" "Heel." "Heel!" " Got any suggestions?" " What?" " You got any suggestions?" " Yeah, kick his balls." "Kick his balls." "Yeah, but I don't want to, like, destroy future generations of charitable dogs." "Don't worry." "I got three Dobermans." "If I don't kick them in the balls regularly, I'd never get anything done." "But he's got to be close to finishing by now." "Not yet." "Here comes the lipstick." " Mrs. Lubin?" " Yes?" " We're ready for you now." " OK." "Come on, Arthur." "I feel so used." "Thanks for your help, or, at least, your good intentions." " I recognize you." " Oh, did you go to Columbia High?" "No, not from high school." "From TV." "Didn't you play the retarded quarterback?" " Yeah." " Are you really retarded?" " No, I'm not." " Cool." "Great job, man." "I mean, I thought you were really retarded." "You're just as good as that Corky kid, and he's actually retarded." "If there's some sort of retarded Oscar, you would win hands down, kick his ass." "Well, thank you." "Thanks, I appreciate it." "I have to fill out this form, though, so..." " Right on." " Thanks." "My cousin's an actor." "Jake Ryan Winters?" "Doubt you've ever heard of him." "He was, like, on X ena once, as a gnome or something." " That's really cool, though." " Thanks." "Oh, my God!" "That scene, that last scene where you give the speech to the whole stadium." "And your dad" " Oh!" "And your dad gives you the thumbs-up!" "That was, like... that was emotional." "So, you got anything else coming out?" "No, you know." "I'm just, I'm auditioning" "I can't believe you're not really retarded!" "Jake's not a very good actor." "You can't really tell on X ena, 'cause he's in the hairy gnome suit and everything, but when we were little, he used to put on these really low-budg renditions of AndrewLloyd Webber musicals in our attic, and they were awful!" "Like, so bad." "Aah!" "It sucks, though, 'cause there's not that much work for little people, you know." "Anyway, I've been talking too much." "I'll just- You got to fill out your forms." "What are you listening to?" " The Shins." "You know'em?" " No." "You got to hear this one song." "It'll change your life, I swear." "Oh, I'm sorry." "You have to- You got to fill out your forms." "Conundrum!" "Think you could maybe listen while" " I think I can handle it." " Yeah?" "OK." "Gold teeth and a curse for this town" "Were all in my mouth" "Only." "I don't know how they got out. dear" "Turn me back into the pet..." "It's good." "I like it." " So, what are you here for?" " What are you here for?" "Waiting for a friend." "You?" " I, uh" " Oh, fuck, that was nosy." "I'm sorry." "Ugh." "I am, I am so nosy." "I didn't, I didn't mean to be" " I'm sorry." "No, just, I get these headaches." "I just want to have it checked out." "Cool." " AndrewLargeman?" " Yes?" " We're ready for you now." " Oh, OK." " Thank you." "Nice meeting you." " You didn't." "I'm Sam." " Andrew." " Nice to meet you." " Good luck with your head." " Thanks." "Don't worry, Sam." "We'll be with you next." " Mr. AndrewLargeman?" " Yes, hi." " There's nothing wrong with you." " What?" "Just kidding." "Howwould I knowthat?" "Uh..." "I'm Dr. Cohen." "What can we do for you today, Andrew?" "I've been getting these really intense headaches." "Um, they last for, like, a split second." "It's like lightening." "It's like a surge of electricity, and then it's gone." "Lithium?" "Howlong have you been on the lithium?" "Um, I've been on some form of it since I was ten or so." "And the Paxil, Zoloft, Celexa..." "Depakote?" "Did they help you at all?" "No." "I mean, I don't know." "It's recently occurred to me I might not even have a problem." "Only, I'd never knowit, because as far back as I can remember," "I've been medicated." "I left them in L. A., though." "This is the first time I haven't had medicine in my body for a long time." "Well, that stuff will leave your body pretty fast." "I could write you a prescription." "Actually, I was thinking about taking a vacation." "Have you discussed this with your psychiatrist?" "Uh... well, my psychiatrist is my dad." "Yeah, so I think he'd prefer me to stay on it." "He..." "likes to think it makes me happy." "You know, our bodies are capable of doing some very funny things when they're consumed with stress and anxiety." "Uh..." "I found my ex-best friend's cufflinks in my wife's purse." "Hmm." "I couldn't get an erection for year and a half... for example." "Wow." "Um..." "But, I don't really think that's it, because I don't," "I don't really feel, like, stressed or anxious at all." "Well, with all the lithium he's had you on, it's amazing you can even hear me now." "Look, Andrew, first of all," "I think you do need to find a psychiatrist that isn't your father." "That's something that should have been remedied years ago." "He knows better!" "And secondly..." "I'm in no position to comment on whether you should stay on the meds or not, 'cause I don't knowyour story." "But my opinion, since you're paying for it, is that yeah, those drugs may help you as a means to an end." "But sooner or later, if you're not in therapy, whatever's going on in your mind will find a way to peek its head out of the water." " Are you all right?" " Yeah, yeah." "Yeah, you're all right." "You're alive." "Come on." "I'll take a look at you." "Come." "I'll need you to take your shoes off." "I have to scratch your feet." "Godspeed all the bakers at dawn" "May they all cut their thumbs" "And bleed into their buns till they melt away" "I'm looking in on the good life" "I might be doomed never to find" "And if you'd 'a took to me. like" "I'd 'a danced like the queen of the eyesores" "And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well" "So, why were you really there?" "Charging." "I'm a robot." " Do you lie a lot?" " What do you consider a lot?" "Enough for people to call you a liar." " People call me lots of things." " Is one of them "liar"?" "I could say no, but howwould you knowl'm not lying?" "I guess I could choose to trust you." " You can do that?" " I can try." "Whose bike is that?" "It was my grandfather's." "It was the only thing he left to anyone in my family, and he left it to me." "And I like it." "So, this is the point in the conversation where you ask me if I'd like a ride home." " It is?" " Yep." "Would you like a ride home?" "Fine... but I'm not getting in that sidecar." " Why not?" " Sidecars are for bitches." "Anyone who rides in that is automatically your bitch." "Thus, I better ride on the back." " Oh." " Hold on tight." "OK, holdin'!" "My hair's blowin' in the wind." "What, are you, like, a hand glider?" "My boyfriend was gonna pick me up, so I brought it, but then he couldn't." "What does he have, one of those tandem things?" "No, he drives a Ninja." "Goes way faster than this guy." " What kind of helmet is that?" " You can wear it on a bike." " How's your head?" " I should live through the day." " Cool." "Make a right here." " All right." " Are you doing anything right now?" " Can you elaborate on "doing anything"?" "It's just, I knowthis guy, Jesse." "He bought this mansion right up here." "And he wants me to come visit him, but I don't want to stay very long." "So, I was thinking, like, if you came, too," "I could just say I have to take you home when I'm ready to go." "Wow." "That's pretty damn random of you, Andrew." " Well..." " "Nice to meet you." "Can I use you?"" " It's the Hollywood in you." " No." "Come on, it's not like that." "It'll be fun, come on." "I'll tell you what." "We can have, like, a signal." "Like, when you pull on your ear, that's the code." "And I'll be like, "Oh, I got to take her home. "" "And then, then we'll go." "Can we have code names, too?" "If you want." "OK... but don't try and, like, kidnap me or anything, 'cause my step uncle's a bounty hunter, and he could have you tracked and killed." "You're such a liar." "Whoo!" "OK, you ready?" "I'll be fine." "Am I the first boy you've ever brought home?" "No, but, um..." "I lied to you before when I told you that my boyfriend drives a Ninja." " He doesn't drive a bike?" " No, I don't have a boyfriend." "But, you know, he might drive a Ninja..." "wherever he is." "Wow, we're off to a great start." "OK." "So-So sometimes I lie." "I mean, I'm weird, man." "About random stuff, too." "I don't even knowwhy I do it." "It's like, it's like a tic." "I mean, sometimes I hear myself say something, and then I think, "Wow, that wasn't even remotely true. "" "So, howdo people knowwhat's real?" "Well, I always feel bad afterwards and admit them when they're lies." " Can you trust that?" " Open the door." "Kevin, down." "Mom!" "Come on, kick 'em in the balls." "Come on." "Mom!" "Everybody down." "Who wants to eat?" "Do you want to eat?" "Then get the fuck off him." "Go on, get out." "I'm so sorry." "We just don't have the time to train them." " Who's got the time to train them?" " Mom." " This is Andrew." " Welcome, welcome." " I'm sorry the place is a wreck." "Honey?" " Mm-hmm?" "I asked you to get the metal wheel out of the hamster cage?" " I forgot." " Well, you forgot, and nowJelly's dead." "Luckily, I got Peanut Butter out in time." "We have to get the only hamsters on planet Earth who can't figure out a stupid hamster wheel." "There's a tin box on the kitchen counter." "You can do the honors." "I have to get to work." " It's nice to meet you." "Andrew, right?" " Yes." "Very nice to meet you." "Samantha, put the clothes in the dryer and bury Jelly." "So, this is it." " It's nice." " No, it's not." "Don't say that 'cause you can't think of anything else." "I'm not, I'm not." "It's very cozy." "You guys are a little early on the tree, though." "Yeah, well, we never got around to taking it down, so when it got to be fall again, we figured, just leave it up." "Oh, my God." "You're totally freaked out right now." " You, like, can't wait to leave." " I'm not, I'm not." "I like it." "It's very nice." " You want to see my room?" " Sure." "Hey." "Titembay, this is my friend Andrew." "Andrew, this is my brother, Titembay." " Hi, it's very nice to meet you." " Oh, it's nice to meet you." " I'm sorry about Jelly." " Oh, that's OK." "I saved some mac and cheese for you." "It's in the fridge." "Thank you." "Anyway..." "I'm late for class." " It's nice meeting you." " Very nice to meet you." "See you later." "So, here we are." "It's nothing fancy, but you know..." "What?" "Uh, it's Titembay, right?" "Yeah, it's weird, huh?" "You're, like, so freaked out right now." "You're running for the door." "It's OK." "You can go." "Don't feel bad" " Stop doing that." " What?" "The thing you just did." "Don't do that." "I want to be here." "If I didn't, I wouldn't be." "Trust me, my family is way more fucked up than yours, OK?" "OK." "So..." "Titembay." "Yeah, he's my brother." " Is he adopted, or...?" " Kind of." "My mom adopted him from Sally Struthers years ago." "One of those "For the cost of a cup of coffee a day" things." "Where she's like, "Howcan you sit there and not help the children?"" "And we just couldn't sit there and not help the children." "So, we start sending him, like, pictures and letters and stuff for years, but then I got really into ice skating, so we sort of forgot about him." "Then one day... we get this phone call, and it's Titembay." "He's at the dry cleaners around the corner." "And he's like," ""I'm at Rutgers." "I live in the dorms, but I'm used to living with my tribe, so I'd rather live with a family. " And he's been living with us ever since." "Wow." "I know." "He's the most amazing guy." "You ought to hear some of his stories." "He struggled through so much because he wanted to learn." "When I think of what he's accomplished, I just, I just feel, like, lazy, you know?" "He's studying criminal justice at Rutgers, and when he was a baby, he was one of those kids with the flies all over his face." "Wow." "I mean, it's a crazy story." "Yeah, I know." "I mean, that's a true story." "I am not that good." "Ohh... this is Tickle." "What is Tickle?" "Tickle's my favorite thing in the whole world." "It's all that's left of Nanny, my blanket." " Tickle's all that remains." " Mm-hmm." " Was there, like, a hurricane?" " Shut up!" "No, I mean..." "I've had this since I was a baby." "It's what they brought me home in from the hospital." " It's like the Wailing Wall." " What?" "Oh, the Wailing Wall is, like, this..." "It's, like, the most holy place for Jews to go and pray in Israel." "It's all that's left of this enormous temple that was destroyed by the Romans." " So you're, like, really Jewish." " What?" "You are, aren't you?" "You are." "I'm not." "I mean, I'm Jewish, but I'm not really Jewish." "I mean, I don't do anything Jewish." "I don't go to temple or anything, but I don't knowany Jews that go to temple." "The Jews I know, they go on one day." "It's Yom Kippur, the Day of Repentance." "OK." "Did you knowthat most temples are built with moveable walls, so that on the one day of the year when everyone comes to repent, they can actually make the room big enough to hold everyone?" "I don't really believe in God." " Just Tickle." " Oh, I believe in Tickle." " We're not gonna make out or anything." " What?" "I'm sorry." "I just totally ruined that moment, didn't I?" " It's just, we're not gonna make out, OK?" " No, I hadn't planned on trying" "Oh, I am so lame." "That was, like, really" "I'm..." "I'm sorry." "Forget I just said that." "I'm" " That was dumb." "You knowwhat I do when I feel completely unoriginal?" "What?" "Blah, blah, blah, blah, la!" "I" " I make a noise, or I do something that no one has ever done before, and then I can feel unique again, even if it's only for, like, a second." " So, no one's ever done that?" " No." "Not in this spot, no." "You just witnessed a completely original moment in human history." " It's refreshing." "You should try it." " No, thanks." " Come on." " No, I think that was good enough" " for the both of us." " Come on!" "What are you, shy?" "This is your one opportunity to do something no one has ever done before, that no one will copy again throughout human existence." "And if nothing else, you'll be remembered as the one guy who ever did this - this one thing." "Uh..." " Howwas that?" " Oh, I've done that one before." "So, I got to go bury this hamster before the dogs eat him." "Wanna help?" "Hmm?" "Stood beneath an orange sky" " Wow." " Yeah." " I mean, this is, uh" " I know." "It's not that we're bad pet owners." "It's just, you know, we've had so many of them over the years." "Besides, a lot of these are fish." "After you." "All right." "Sit down." "What are you thinking about?" " Now?" " Yeah." " Right now?" " Yeah." "Right now, I was thinking I've been going to a lot of these things lately." " What, dates?" " Not dates." "This is a date?" "This isn't a date." "Funerals." "Why?" "Who else died?" "Oh, um..." "That's why I'm home, actually." "I guess I haven't even told you that yet." "My mom just died." "God, that's weird to say that out loud, but, uh..." "My mom just died, and..." "yeah, that's why I'm home." "I'm so sorry." "God, I'm so sorry." "And here I am, putting you through another one of these." "Not that Jelly's anywhere near your mom." "I mean, we loved Jelly, but..." " I'm so sorry." " No, it's OK." "It's all right." "I'm all right with it." "Anyway, I think it's what she wanted, so..." "Howdid she die?" "She drowned, actually." "Yeah, my mother was a paraplegic." "She was in a wheelchair, so she... you know." "And..." "I guess she was taking a bath, and she must have slipped or something." "That's what they say." "I don't know." "But, needless to say, she drowned, and that's howshe... she died." "When?" "This was, uh Sunday." "Oh, my God." "Why are you crying?" "I don't know." "I'm sorry." "I'm not usually like this." "It's just, like..." "It's just so sad." "You know, it's like..." "It's so tragic, isn't it?" "It is." "I mean, it's like, it's like real-life tragedy or something." "I mean..." "Anyway, let's just, let's change the subject, OK?" "Let's really bring the focus back to Jelly, 'cause what could be ruder than talking about someone else who died when you're in the act of burying a close friend?" " Well, what should we do?" " I don't know." "I've only been to one of these things." "You appear to be the expert." "Well, we usually say something." "OK, I'll go first." "Um..." "Didn't really knowyou, Jelly." "From what I hear, you were a good pet." " Little trouble with the wheel" " That's not funny." "Jelly, you were a great pet." "I'm sorry I forgot to take the wheel out of your cage." "I'm so, so sorry about that." "Goodbye." "I hope that you liked me." "If I lived" "Till I was 102" "I just don't think I'll ever" "Get over you" "Holy shit!" "You scared the shit out of me." "Why are you always doing that?" " I haven't seen you in a while." " I've been catching up with people here" "Dr. Cohen called." "There's nothing wrong with you." "Yeah, I think I'm starting to figure that out myself." " When are you thinking of leaving?" " Uh, probably tomorrow." "Um... you know, I got a lot of stuff I got to take care of in L. A." " Probably have to find a newjob, so" " We need to talk." "Yeah." "How?" "I mean, when?" "What are you doing now?" "Now's not good, 'cause I told my friend Mark I was gonna meet up with him." "But howabout, like, later tonight?" " OK, then, we'll talk." " Yeah." "We owe that to each other." "Yeah." "We owe it to her." "Yeah." "Good." "Sorry I scared you." "How could you leave all that lithium?" "I was totally gonna hit you up for some, man." "This fucking guy." "I'm glad you're back, man." "'Cause this town is so messed up." "Everyone's got their drug of choice." "It's like in Brave New World." "You ever read that book?" "Who wrote that?" "Aldous..." "Aldous something." "Aldous..." "Anyway, there's, like," "Alphas and Betas and Epsilons and all sorts of people..." "Huxtable." "Aldous Huxtable." "That's it, bro." "Andrew, would you like to see Sam's ice-skating tape?" " Mom, no." " Absolutely." "She was so ahead of her time." "She could have gone to the Olympics." "No, no, no, no." "I couldn't have." "Yes, you could've." "Don't blame it on the epilepsy." "You had a gift." "Come on, let me see it." "Let's showhim the "Florida Stars of the Ice" opening." "The gator costume." " Mom, I'm asking you seriously." " Oh, come on." "Don't be shy." " Let me see it." " Oh, she wants you to see it." "Howcould you not want him to see howtalented you are?" " Were." " Come on." " Come on." " Ugh." " Honey, what are you doing?" " I'm dusting for prints." "Could we move the crime scene into the kitchen?" "I want to showAndrewSam's skating." "Someone's pissing on my GameCube, and I'm about to close the case." " It wasn't me, Your Honor." " Pawprints point to a canine." "Hmm." "Andrew, sit down here on the couch." "I can't believe you're showing him this." "Look, there she is." " You're the alligator?" " You can tell by the hands." "Here comes the double axel." "And..." "land." " Oh, I mean, come on." "Is she good?" " Wow!" "She's great." "All right." " Wow." " Shut up." "No, I mean, your mom's right." "You're really good." "This was awesome, but we got to go." "I just wanted to showhim howtalented" " Mom, come on!" " My baby!" "All right, go on." "Go on, get away." "Wait a minute." "Give me a hug." "I love you so much." "I'm so proud of you." " I love you, too." " Have a good night." " Thanks for dinner." " Come, you're giving me a hug, too." " Mom, come on." " I'll take a hug." " Good night." "See you later, Tim." " Bye, Tim." "Peace out, player." "It was the only thing I ever liked doing." "pretending to be someone else." "I've been so out of it, the only parts I get offered are playing handicapped people." " That is not funny." " Come on, you got to see that's a joke." "If you can't laugh at yourself, life's gonna seem a whole lot longer than you'd like." "All right, so, what are we laughing at you about?" "Mmm..." "I lied again." "I have epilepsy." "Which part are we laughing about?" "I, um..." "I had a seizure at the lawoffice where I work." "Their insurance wouldn't cover me unless I wore preventative covering." " What's preventative covering?" " The helmet I was wearing." "Oh, come on!" "That's funny." "That's really funny." "I'm the only person who wears a helmet to work who isn't, like, putting out fires or, like, racing for NASCAR." "But what do you do?" "I mean, I can't quit." "Their insurance is amazing." "What do you do?" "You laugh, you know?" "I'm not saying I don't cry." "But in between..." "I laugh." "And I realize howsilly it is to take anything too seriously." "Plus, I look forward to a good cry." "Feels pretty good." "I haven't cried since I was a little kid." "I didn't cry at my mother's funeral." "I tried, you know?" "I thought of all the saddest things I could think of, like things in movies..." "There's this image from Life magazine that's always haunted me, and I just, I focused in on it, you know?" "But nothing came." "That actually made me sadder than anything," " the fact that I just felt so numb." " What do you mean?" " Just that" " Hey, vagina!" "Hey, what's up, guys?" "Uh, Sam, that's Mark, Dave, and you remember Jesse." " What's up?" " Hey, nice to meet you." "I'm sorry I said "vagina" just now." "I didn't knowyou were here." " Oh, that's OK." " Nice." "Let's get fucked up." "One, two, three!" "Whoo!" "What are you doing?" "Largeman, get the fuck in the pool." "It's so warm!" "Can you swim?" "Of course I can swim." "Dude, maybe you should stay on the steps." "I don't knowCPR." "You look like a wet beaver." "There's a handful of normal kid things I kind of missed." "There's a handful of normal kid things I kind of wish I'd missed." "You know that point in your life when you realize the house you grewup in isn't really your home anymore?" "All of a sudden, even though you have someplace where you put your shit, that idea of home is gone." "I still feel at home in my house." "You'll see." "When you move out, it just sort of happens." "One day, it's gone." "And you feel like you can never get it back." "It's like you feel homesick for a place that doesn't even exist." "Or maybe it's like this rite of passage, you know?" "You'll never have that feeling again until you create a newidea of "home" for yourself, you know?" "For your kids, for the family you start." "It's like a cycle or something." "I don't know, but I miss the idea of it, you know?" "Maybe that's all a family really is a group of people who miss the same imaginary place." "Maybe." "Are you ready?" "Whoo!" "Howabout some fuckin' furniture, dude?" "I bought a chair, but I didn't like it." " Where is it?" " It's keeping us warm." "Silent Velcro." "You lucky motherfucker." "I feel like if I'd shown up at school and presented the idea of silent Velcro, they would've sent me away a whole lot sooner." " Why did they send you away?" " Ooh, listen to this girl." " They didn't send me away." " You just said they sent you away." "They sent me away." "They sent me to boarding school." ""Sent me away" sounds like I went to some asylum." "There were no straps." "Why did they send you to boarding school?" "They sent me to boarding school because they thought I might be dangerous." ""You're so freaked out." "You're running for the door." "You can go." "Don't feel bad. "" "That's really funny." "That's really funny." "Why would they think you'd be dangerous?" " You're like a little detective." " Well..." " Yeah?" " You're gay." "No." "Drum roll." "I was the reason she was in a wheelchair." "I pushed her." "So, there that is." " Shut up." " Fuck off." "No, it's the truth." "Why?" "Just a complete freak accident, you know?" "One of those things you replay a million times, and you see howclearly it was just a complete freak thing." "I mean, my whole life, she was depressed for no reason." "And one day, you know- I was a little kid." "I was nine years old - and I just hated her for that, and I pushed her." "And it was innocent." "I was just completely frustrated, because" " Because you couldn't make her happy?" " Yeah." "Fuck, yeah." "And-And any other time, you know, any other day, she would've yelled at me and sent me to my room." "But this day, on this particular day, the door of the dishwasher..." "had fallen open." "The latch on it was broken, and it would just randomly fall open." "That fucking latch, you know..." "It's-It's really amazing howmuch of my life has been determined by a quarter-inch piece of plastic, but..." "So, anyway, she-she fell back over the door and hit her neck on the kitchen counter, paralyzing her from the waist down." "Wow." "Still want to compare fucked-up families?" "But your mom was in the wheelchair long before you left." "Yeah." "Well, I was nine." "So, they sent me to therapy and put me on these drugs that were supposed to curb my anger." "And I've been on some form of them since." "And when I was 16, my psychiatrist dad came around to the conclusion that it probably wasn't the best environment for me to be in." "So, he sent me to boarding school, and I haven't been home since." " Until now." " For her funeral." "Until now, for her funeral." "I can't believe the retarded quarterback's a pill popper." "Jesse?" "Where's the sauna?" " I'll showher." " No, I got it." "No, you get her a towel." "Want a ride, sweetheart?" " You're in it right now, aren't you?" " What do you mean?" "My mom always says that when I'm working something out in my head." "She's like, "You're in it right now. "" "And I'm looking at you, and you're telling me this story, and... you're definitely in it right now." "I think you're right." "I am in it." "Yeah, whatever." "Could we just change the subject, OK?" "Let's just talk about good stuff." "Good stuff?" "Like "glass half full" shit." "What do you got?" "Got a little buzz." "I got that." " What you got?" " I got a little buzz goin'." "And I like you." "So, there's that." "I guess I have that." "I can tap dance." "You want to see me tap dance?" "I would love to see you tap dance." "So what if you catch me." "where would we land?" "In somebody's life for taking his hands" "See." "I can tell" "What are you doing?" "You collect Desert Storm trading cards?" "Fuck, yeah." "Those things are collector's items, man." "You have any idea howmuch those are gonna be worth?" " Really?" " Hell, yeah." "That shit's an investment." "I have lots of investments all over." "One day I'm gonna sell all of them, and just fuckin' live off of it." "So, like, howmuch is this one worth?" " Which?" " "Night Vision Goggles. "" "I don't know." "Mint?" "Two, maybe three." " Dollars?" " Yeah." "It's too early." "You don't sell yet." "Don't you knowanything about investing?" "I'm gonna live off that shit." "If you have a complete set, it's worth, like, thousands." "So, do you have the complete set?" "Almost." "The corners are bent on my "Friendly Fire,"" "and someone stole my "Wolf Blitzer. "" "Now, look." "What do you got to do today?" "'Cause, uh..." "I got you a little going-away present, but, uh..." "I got to kinda track it down first." " So, can you give me a ride?" " Uh, yeah." "I just..." "What?" " No, nothing." "I just..." " Say it, speak." "I kind of told Sam I was gonna hang out with her today, so..." "She can come." "I don't care." "I could have been a sailor" "Could have been a cook" "A real live lover" "Could have been a book" "I could have been a signpost" "Could have been a clock" "As simple as a kettle" "Steady as a rock" "I could be here and now" "I would be." "I should be." "but how?" "I can't believe we're in fuckin' Handi-World." "We're getting money." "Don't look guilty." " Howdo I look guilty?" " AndrewLargeman?" " Oh, no." "Benson." " Oh, no." " Who's that?" " Don't give him your number." "Hey, man, what's up?" " Holy shit!" " How's it going?" "I haven't seen you since, like, junior year." "I thought you killed yourself." "What?" "I thought you killed yourself." "That wasn't you?" "No, no." "That wasn't me." "Who killed themselves?" "That was the Gleason kid." "Oh, and Tina." " Tina who?" " You remember Tina." "She was anorexic, did gymnastics..." " Oh, gymnastics Tina?" "How'd she do it?" " I don't know." " She wasn't Jewish." "I didn't bury her." " I think it was sleeping pills." "Or that car-in-the-garage thing." "I forgot." "Oh, sorry." "This is Sam, Karl." "Karl, Sam." " Hey." " Hey." "I got to go find that thing." "You stay here." "I'll be back." "Is-Is it heavy, or...?" "OK." "Weren't you on a TV showor something?" "Yeah, it was just this, just this show." "So you're, like, working here?" "That's cool." "Only for a little while." "I'm opening my own business." "Actually, I should talk to you about it." "I'm looking for smart people like you, Large." "I should get your number." "Yeah, definitely." "That'd be, that'd be cool." "I'd like to talk to you - both - about a good opportunity for you and your loved ones." "We all have dreams." "I knowl do." "I'd like to talk to you about an exciting opportunity that people are talking about." " We got to get going." " Oh, OK." "It was good to see you, Karl." " I should get your number." " Definitely." "I'll call you," " 'cause I think he has it in his book." " Nice to meet you." "Why is it always the losers that get caught up in the pyramid schemes?" "Why can't it be some charming, hot girl nagging you incessantly to buy shit?" " Is that what he's doing?" " Yeah, it's detergent or some shit." "Why are you buying knives?" "I don't need knives." " I'd like to return these." " You got a receipt?" "Actually, no." "They were a gift." " Why are you returning these?" " They're not sharp enough." " They're not sharp enough?" " No, not for what we need them for." "They couldn't cut cans." "You bought them to cut cans?" "No, but in the commercial it said if I wanted to cut cans, I could." " But with these knives, I can't." " Well, it comes with a sharpener." " Did you try it?" " Yeah." "They're just..." "I don't want them." "They're not sharp enough." "OK." "A major loophole in the Handi-World return policy is that they permit returns without receipts on items below$40." "So, howoften do you go?" "I hit every employee once, and then I wait till they hire newones." "Luckily, nobody stays at Handi-World very long, except Karl Benson." "Mark, it's my last day in town." "If you need money, I could loan you some" "I don't need your money." "I'm making my own." "Take Jesse's." "The guy's a millionaire." "I don't take anybody's money, OK?" "I make my own." "Favors are bad news." "The only thing worse than a favor is a favor involving money, OK?" "Let's go." "I got to see a guy about a nitrous tank." "Too low to find my way" "Too high to wonder why" "I've touched this place before" "Somewhere in another time" "Now I can hear the sun" "The clouds drifting through the blinds" "A half a million thoughts" "Are flowing through my mind" "What is this place?" "I think you can see into hotel rooms." "Come on, tough guy!" "Come on, tough guy!" "Shut up!" "Yeah." "Oh. oh!" "Yeah!" "I'm gonna fucking cum!" "That shit was hot." "That shit was hot." "I got to go drop some knowledge on that ho right there." " Howdo you knowshe's a hooker?" " Of course she's a fuckin' hooker." "Girls who look like her do not fuck guys that look like him unless it's for coke, money, or fame." "Well, Julia Roberts married Lyle Lovett." " Who the fuck are you?" " This is Sam, this is Large." "No offense, man, but why you bringing these fucking people here?" "This is the guy who needs that thing." "I brought you the tank, 'K?" "Could you just tell us where to go now?" " That thing come with balloons?" " What am I, a fucking birthday clown?" "No, it doesn't come with balloons, OK?" "Suck it off the tap." "And I need it back, 'cause that guy's holding my 39 bucks." "All right, hold up." "Hold up!" "Who here just sawsome titties?" "Raise your hand if you just sawsome titties." "Hmm?" "Thank you." "So everybody, just calm the fuck down." "Now... you knowwhere Kiernan's Quarry is?" " Down in Newark. right?" " Yeah." "It's at the bottom of Hillside and Rivington." "Can't really see it from the street." "but it's there." "Park your car at the gate and hop the fence." "At the bottom of the quarry. there's a junkyard run by this guy named Albert." "He's the one that tracked down the piece you're looking for. all right?" "I'll call him right now and tell him to expect you." "OK, stop." " What the fuck are we doing?" " Just be patient, man." "We've been patient all day, but it's my last day in town." "If you told me we're going on scavenger hunt for blow, I would've passed." "Please." "If I was gonna get you coke, we would've gone to the high school football practice." "We'd have been rolling five hours ago." "We've corrupted this innocent girl enough." " I'm not innocent." " You are." "That's what I like about you." "I don't want this guy taking you to some sketchy quarry in the middle of nowhere to find, like, crack whores huffing turpentine or pit bulls raping each other, or whatever it is you have us doing." "Wow." "That's, like, the most worked up I've ever seen you." " He was protecting me." " So?" " He likes me." " Don't be cute." "He's my knight in shining armor." "Don't talk about knights in front of Mark." "It's a sore subject." "I'm gonna kill that motherfucker." "Pun intended?" "Oh, you're" "Oh, oh, oh, oh!" "Oh, my God." " Wow." " I never even knewthis was here." "I've heard about it." "They were supposed to build a mall here." "I remember reading about that in the paper." "They were digging or something, and they break into this natural phenomenon." "It's like an underground Grand Canyon or something." "Nowthey're in some huge legal battle over whether they can build here." "Can you imagine the guy whose job it is to fight for his right to build a mall on some, like, geological phenomenon?" "They love their malls here, man." "All right, let's find this guy and get out of here." "You're not gonna tell us what we're getting?" " It's a surprise." "You'll see." " I think it's gonna rain." "So, this is it." "So, knock." "Knock and barter for Desert Storm trading cards." "Don't tease me about my hobbies." "I don't tease you about being an asshole." "OK." " Mark?" " Yeah." "Albert?" "Come on in." "Oh, man." "You guys must be freezing." "Make yourselves warm by the fire." "I'm just gonna go put her down, OK?" "I'll be right back out." "I must say..." "I'm continually impressed with howeach place you bring us to" " continues to be weirder and weirder." " What do you mean?" "This is nice." "Oh, nothing." "Just hanging out in an old boat at the bottom of a quarry in Newark." "It's hardly the bottom, dude." "Did you check out that cliff down there?" "Hey... this is my wife, Faye." "Hi." "Welcome." "Please, have a seat." "Make yourselves comfortable." " Man, it's really coming down out there." " Yeah, it started pouring all of a sudden." "Well, in a bad storm, I like to pretend that this old boat's my own private ark." "Unfortunately, if this is the apocalypse, I'm not quite sure it still floats." " Listen, would anybody like some tea?" " I'd love some, thank you." "Do you want some tea?" "OK, I'll be right back." "What is this place?" "What is it that you do down here?" "Well, we're calling it Kiernan's Fault." "No one knows what it is." "We haven't been able to explore it." "Meanwhile, while they're in litigation, they hired me to make sure no one comes inside." "Wow." "But what they don't know is that at night, I climb down." "So howdeep does it go?" "Thank you." "You know- thank you - no one really knows." "But I like to pretend it's infinite." "It's kind of an odd job - guardian of an infinite abyss." "Yeah." "Yeah, I guess it is." "But we also trade and deal in antique jewelry." "I suppose it is odd that we live down here like this." " Not at all." " It never crossed my mind." "Well... we think it's important." "Why?" "What is it that you think you're gonna find?" "I guess I just like the idea of discovering something - of doing something that's completely unique, that's never been done before." " Albert's Abyss." " Well, maybe." "Who knows?" "But you knowwhat?" "That's all ego." "None of that really matters." "If I get to be with this person right here, and our beautiful baby that's all I need." "Well, I suppose you want what you came all the way down here for." "Oh, yeah." "That'd be great." "Now, it took me a while to track this piece down, but I owe Diego huge." "That's it." "Thank you so much." " Yeah." " Really." "Listen, good luck in the rain." "Do you guys want some garbage bags or something?" " Yeah." " OK." "That actually would be great." "Tom. get your plane right on time" "I know your part'll go fine" "Goodbye!" " Hey, Albert!" " Yeah?" "Good luck exploring the infinite abyss." "Thank you." "Hey!" "You, too." "I get the news." "I need on the weather report" "Oh." "I can gather all the news I need on the weather report" "Hey." "I've got nothing to do today but smile" "Da-do da-do doo-da." "and here I am" "The only living boy in New York" "Half of the time we're gone but we don't know where" "And we don't know where" "Here I am" "Whoo!" "Half of the time we're gone but we don't know where" "And we don't know where" "Tom. get your plane right on time" "I know that you've been eager to fly. now" "Hey. let your honesty shine. shine. shine. now" "Da-do da-do doo-da doo-da" "Like it shines on me" "The only living boy in New York" "The only living boy in New York" "So..." "I don't know if I'm gonna see you, man." "Don't you want to know what's in the bag?" "To be honest, I don't even care anymore." "What is it?" "It's my mom's favorite necklace." "I'd be lying to you if I told you it was my plan all along." "But..." "I got it back to you, right?" "That's got to be worth something." "This whole day was about this?" "You didn't want it down there with her." "It's better it's with you." "OK." "Hey, if you ever need a Kato, you knowwhere to find me." "It's funny, this..." "This necklace reminds me of this really random memory of my mother." "I was, I was a little kid, and I was crying for one reason or another, and she was just, like, you know, cradling me and rocking me back and forth." "I can remember seeing the little balls in this thing just sort of floating back and forth, and..." "And there was just, like, snot dripping down my nose, right?" "And, uh..." "she gave me her sleeve and she told me to blowmy nose into it." "And I remember thinking, even as a little kid," ""Wow." "This is love. "" "This is love." "Large." " I think I see one." " Shut up." "Yeah, I do." "Wait, we should save it or something." "OK, don't move." "OK." "We could put it in my scrapbook, if I had a scrapbook." " That it?" " I think so." "I don't really feel any more coming." "Well, if you do, just let me know." "I'll get the cup, OK?" "This was such a good idea." " Who are you?" " I'm your newfriend, Sam." "Tissue?" "Come here." "Fuck, this hurts so much." "Yeah, I know." "But that is life." "If nothing else, that's life, you know?" "It's real." "Sometimes it fuckin' hurts." "To be honest, it's sort of all we have." "Hmm." "Howare you feelin'?" "Safe." "When I'm with you, I feel so safe." "Like I'm home." "They will see us waving" "From such great heights" ""Come down now. "" "They'll say" "But everything looks perfect" "From far away..." " Dad." " Yeah." "Ha." "Come on in." " I'm sorry I woke you up." " No, no." "I was just reading." "Where have you been?" "Everywhere." "I've been on sort of a crazy journey these last couple days." "You've been avoiding me." "No, I haven't been." "Come on." "OK, maybe I have been." "I'm sure you can find lots of things in your life that you can be angry about." "But what I do not understand is why you're so angry at me." "All I ever wanted was for everyone to be happy again." " That's all I ever wanted." " When were we all ever happy, Dad?" "You always say that." "I mean, when was that?" "What was this time that we were all so happy?" "I don't have it in my memory." "Maybe if I did, I could help steer us back there, but I just..." "You know, you and I need to work on being OK, if that's not in the cards for us." "Well, we might have a shot at it, if you can forgive yourself for what you did." "What I did." "What I did." "OK." "Let's do it, OK?" "We're here, right?" "Let's do it." "I'm gonna forgive myself for what I did." "Are you ready?" "I was a little boy, and somebody made a shitty latch." "That's what I think about the whole thing, OK?" "And I'm not gonna take those drugs anymore." "They left me numb." "I have felt so fucking numb to everything I've experienced in my life, OK?" "And for that for that I'm here to forgive you." "You've always said all you wanted was for us to have whatever it is we wanted." "Well, maybe what Mom wanted more than anything was for it to all be over." "And for me... what I want more than anything in the world is for it to be OK with you for me to feel something again even if it's pain." "Going against your doctor's recommendation is a pretty weighty experiment to take on, don't you think?" "This is my life, Dad." "This is it." "I've spent 26 years waiting for something else to start." "So, no." "I don't think it's too much to take on, because it's everything there is." "I see nowit's all there is." "You and I are gonna be OK." "You knowthat, right?" "We may not be as happy as you always dreamed we would be, but for the first time, let's just allowourselves to be whatever it is that we are." "And that will be better, OK?" "I think that will be better." "What are you thinking about?" "You're not coming back, are you?" " Come on, Sam." "Of course I am." " No, you're not." "You don't realize this is good." "This doesn't happen often in your life, you know?" "I mean, this..." "We can work this stuff out." "I want to help you, you know?" "We need each other." "I haven't even lied in, like, two days." "Is that true?" "No." "Look, this isn't, this isn't a conversation about this being over." "It's-It's..." "I'm not, like, putting a period at the end of this, you know?" "I'm putting, like, an ellipsis on it." "'Cause I'm worried that if I don't go figure myself out, if I don't go land on my own two feet, then I'm just gonna fuck this whole thing up, and this is too important." "I got to go." "I..." "I got to go." "I fired my psychiatrist." "I got to go find a newone." "Look, I'm gonna call you when I get there." "I'm gonna call you, and..." "Look at me." "Look at me." "You changed my life." "You changed my life, and I've known you four days." "This is the beginning of something really big." "But right now, I've got to go." "Come here." "Drink up. baby. down" "Mmm. are you in or are you out?" "Leave your things behind" "'Cause it's all going off without you" "Excuse me." "too busy writing your tragedy" "These mishaps you bubble wrap" "When you've no idea what you're like" "Take your seats as quickly as possible." " What are you doing?" " Do you remember that idea I had about working stuff out, then finding you once I figured stuff out?" " The ellipsis?" " Yeah, the ellipsis." "It's dumb." "It's an awful idea, and I'm not gonna do it, OK?" "'Cause like you said, this is it." "This is life." "And I'm in love with you, Samantha." "I think that's the only thing I've ever been really sure of in my entire life." "I'm really messed up right now, and I've got a lot of stuff to work out, but I don't want to waste any more of my life without you in it, OK?" " Yeah." " And I think I can do this." "I want to." " We have to, right?" " Yeah." " Right?" " Yes!" "So, what do we do?" "What do we do?" "So. let go So. let go. jump in" "Oh. well. whatcha waiting for?"
