"Okay." "My friends like you better than they like me." "Yeah, yeah." "I was actually afraid that was going to happen." "I just don't get it." " Yeah." " I don't get it." "I mean, you're not funny, you're not smart." "You're nothing to look at." "No." "I think it's, um... it speaks a little more to, you know, you, and you're just... you feel quite mediocre and unattractive." "I'm lowering the bar." " Yeah." " That makes sense." "That's it." "That's why." "So they can tolerate you." " Yeah, I thought so." " That makes sense." "Yeah." "I love it here." "Thanks for coming." "I'm really glad you came." "Yeah, me, too." "I feel really good out here." "I haven't felt like that in a while." " That's good." " Yeah." " You dork." " You're a dork." "You keep looking at me." "Ow!" "Son of a..." "You look... (SQUEALS)" "Well, good night." "I noticed you didn't eat a lot out there today." "What do you say we throw some red meat on the grill, tell a few lies?" "Has anyone ever said no to you before?" " "No"?" " No." "I thought so." "I am making history," "Good night." "There you go again bothering me." "She said no to us, Stink." "(MOBY BARKS)" "Yeah, I know." "I'm not familiar with that term either." "Come on." "(GABBY SIGHS)" "(PHONE RINGS)" "(MOBY PANTING)" "If you've been in the fish guts again..." "Hey." "What you got?" "Good boy." "Come on, boy." "Come on!" "(KNOCKING ON DOOR)" " Hi." " Hi." " I brought wine." " Thank you." "Thank you." "Handy, my ass." "Well, the young 'uns are looking good." "I think they're down for the night." "Good." "Damn, I thought you were just going to whip something up." "I am." "If this is how you whip, I might just have to get down on one knee right now." " Excuse me?" " Mm-hmm." "My mama is an amazing cook." "I just paid attention." "Hang on a minute." "Is this you right here?" "Yeah, it is." "It's my favorite memory." "It's at the property where we grew up." "We used to swim and ride bikes and fish, and I used to put on these silly little plays." "My dad would tell me stories at nighttime about the constellations." "They sound like good folks." "Yeah, they are." "A hurricane washed it all away, though, when I was 12." "Broke my heart." "It's funny, I wonder if that's why that's my favorite memory." "What do you mean?" "When things go away, you know?" "Makes you appreciate them so much more than when you actually have them." "Yeah." "It makes you pay attention to the things that are just right in front of you." "Okay, dinner is served on the eastern-most botanical mezzanine." "Ooh, so the porch with the trumpet weeds?" "Exactly!" "TRAVIS:" "Beautiful." "I'm sorry." "This view we got here is just beautiful." "GABBY:" "Yes." "The view." "TRAVIS:" "Mm-hmm." "I really can't get enough of it." "(CHUCKLES) Yeah." "It is really something." "It makes you wonder where it all comes from, doesn't it?" "Not really." "Not really?" " No." " Okay." "So you don't believe in God." " Oh, boy." " Oh, boy!" "This was going so good." ""Oh, boy"?" "Don't "oh, boy" me." "An honest question deserves an honest answer." "All right." " I apologize." " Okay." "So?" "You want to know what I believe in?" "Yeah." "Moby, come here." "GABBY:" "Oh, he has an opinion on this, does he?" "Oh, yeah." "Watch this." "Now, you see that?" "How he pushes back?" "He does it every time, and he only does it for me." "Now, that's loyalty." "I know it sounds stupid, but it's love." "Your friends, your family, yourself." "That's all you can count on in this world." "And that's what I believe." "What do you believe?" "I believe... in the moon, the stars." "It's that feeling that I'm a part of something so much bigger than myself that I will never, ever begin to understand." "And it's something that I cannot control, no matter how hard I try." "So, if you can tell me where that comes from and why it is so damn beautiful... then I will stop saying my prayers before bedtime." " Okay." " Okay." "Well, that was lovely." "It was, wasn't it?" "We just had the God conversation and it wasn't bad at all." "It didn't go that bad." "Weird." " Whew." " Uh-oh." " I don't know." " I don't know." "The couple that used to live here, they used to have music playing all day and all night." "You'd see them out in the grass dancing together on their anniversary." "GABBY:" "Oh, my God." "That is so lovely." "What happened to them?" "They're still around." "They just got old and fragile and moved into the home over on Cedar and Marsh." " Together?" " Yeah." "I love that story." "(MUSIC PLAYING ON STEREO)" "Who was that?" "Nobody." "It's a new neighbor." "Already bothering the heck out of me." "Where's the damn ice cream?" "Uh-oh." "What?" "I'll tell you later." "Dad says hi."
