"And I don't have any kids." "Do I?" "How would I know that?" "Sorry, Carmen, but Mr. Renaldo and Skippy have been waiting in the session room." "I know." "I'm sorry." "I'll be right there." "Okay." "Well, my time is really up." "So, good-bye." "Bye, Carmen." "[Door Closes]" "Mr. Johnston?" "You forgot your flowers." "[Door Closes]" "[Phone Rings]" "[Rings]" "[Rings]" "Hey." "Excuse me!" "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "Uh, do you know where Atwood Road is?" "## [Metal] I'm lost." "[Emergency Brake Sets]" "[Engine Off]" "[Door Alarm Dinging]" "[Dog Barks] Oh!" "Hey." "[Barking Continues]" "Hey, it's okay." "It's okay." "##[Metal] Can I help you?" "Does Penny live here?" "Who's askin'?" "I'm an old friend of Penny's." "Don." "Don Johnston." "She's in the house." "Go around there." "A screen door." "Thanks." "##[Continues]" "[Knocking]" "Penny?" "Hello?" " Penny?" " Yeah?" "Donny." "So, what the fuck do you want, Donny?" "Oh, I just thought I'd drop by." "Just checking in." "Well, I don't remember any happy ending between us, Don." "No... reconciliation, nothing." "You left me, Penny." "Remember?" "Yeah." "Very clearly." "So, what is it you wanted?" "Everything okay over there, Pen?" "Not sure yet!" "Goddamn it." "What is it you wanted?" "Penny, do you..." "Do you have a son?" "Fuck you, Donny!" "Danny, grab that fucker." "Penny!" "[Sighs] Shut up." "I didn't say anything." "[Footsteps]" "What the hell's your fuckin' problem?" "I was just leaving." "No, what are you doing upsetting Penny like that, huh?" "I just needed to ask her a question." "Yeah, I know you asked her a question." "Now, listen." "I just don't think it's very sensitive of you... comin' out here to try to hurt Penny's feelings, you know, to get back at her or whatever." "That just seems so rude." "[Fumbling With Door Handle]" "[Door Opens]" "[Engine Starts]" "[Warning Bell Dinging]" "[Dinging Stops]" "[Groans Softly]" "You said all pink, right?" "[Don] It's best that they're all pink, yeah." "Oh, you're very good at this." "That's beautiful." "Thanks." "Are you okay?" "Uh, it was just a minor misunderstanding." "Mind if I take a look?" "Oh." "That's nasty." "Did you even wash it?" "Sort of." "Let me take care of it." "What's your name?" "Sun." "Sun Green." "Sun Green?" "Perfect." "What's yours?" "Don." "Don Johnston." "[Giggles] Really?" "Don Johnson?" "Johnston." "With a "T."" "So... if I continue down this road," "I will find the Riverview Cemetery?" "Yeah." "You just go down the hill." "You'll see the entrance on your right." "Thank you, Sun Green." "You're welcome." "[Bells Jingling]" "Hello, beautiful." "Red ink on pink paper." "##[Rock]" "I don't know what I want." "[Carmen] He says you have a hidden agenda." "Fuck you, Donny." "Circle Drive, please." "No rush." "[TV Clicks On]" "## [Jazz]" "The wheel of fortune turns." "Round and round it goes." "Where it stops, no one knows." "##[Continues]" "Boy." "[TV Clicks Off]" "That's my report, Sherlock." "The general outline of what you put me through." "That's it?" "And after all that, you're still no closer to knowing who's the mother of your son?" "That's right." "But there was that one typewriter." "And the pink motorcycle." "And it was Dora's pink, uh, business card." "And-And-And Laura's pink bathrobe." "I think this whole thing is a farce, a fiasco." "As far as I know, you may have written that letter to me." "Look, I'm really sorry that you got beat up and everything." "I..." "I..." "I..." "I feel that it was somehow my fault." "It was." "Kind of strange, too, how, uh," "Carmen's magic dog was named Winston." "Yeah..." "[Stammers]" "Look, man, I really put a lot of work into this thing." "I thought that it was really important that you know whether or not you had a son." "I mean, it's your life." "You got to live your life, right?" "I was living my life, Winston." "I still am." "What's this?" "It's pink." "It's a note I found in my foyer when I got back." "Red ink on pink paper." "It's from Sherry." "What?" "From Sherry?" "Why didn't you tell me?" "May I see it?" "Envelope and paper not exactly the same size." "You know, the handwriting... seems pretty close to the address on the envelope, but I can't be sure." "Sherry still likes you." "You think that Sherry could have sent the first letter... and made the whole thing up just to fuck with you?" "Who knows?" "You know, I've got to go." "I think I have just enough time to stop home and compare the handwriting... and then hopefully punch in at work on time." "You coming?" "No." "I just need a little break from all of this." "Look, don't worry." "We're still going to solve this mystery." "[Engine Starts]" "Didn't I see you at the airport last night?" "I don't know." "Did you?" "Yeah." "You on a road trip?" "Yeah." "Something like that." "You look hungry." "Can I buy you a sandwich or something?" "Uh, no, that's okay." "You can relax." "I'm not gay." "I'm not a cop." "Just a guy who sees a guy who might need a sandwich." "Okay." "Thanks." "But could you get something to go?" "I'd sorta rather stay outside." "Sure." "How about a nice club sandwich?" "I'm vegetarian." "You eat cheese?" "Yeah, sometimes." "I..." "I like cheese." "Okay, I got it." "I'll be right back." "[Door Opens, Closes]" "Thanks." "You're welcome." "Hey." "You found us a place." "All right." "Let's see here." "Big cheese and veggie sandwich... with mushrooms." "Fries..." "Mmm." "Extra large." "Two waters." "Two coffees." "My mom put that there... for good luck." "Thanks for the food." "Ahh." "No problem, chief." "You called me chief?" "Yeah." "Why?" "What happened to your eye?" "I, uh..." "I ran into somebody." "Somebody's fist." "You a gangster?" "No." "I wish." "No, I was, uh..." "I was in computers." "Computers and girls." "What about you, chief?" "I'm interested in, uh, philosophy." "Philosophy and girls." "Sounds pretty good." "Think so?" "So, uh, as just a guy who gave another guy a sandwich," "you have any, like, philosophical tips or anything... for a guy on a kind of road trip?" "You asking me?" "Yeah." "Well..." "The past is gone." "I know that." "The future... isn't here yet, whatever it's going to be." "So, all there is is..." "is this." "The present." "That's it." "Are you a Buddhist?" "No." "Are you?" "Uh, I'm not sure yet." "I'm sorry that's the best I have to offer at the moment." "No, I appreciate it." "I like what you said." "It's better than some, like, fatherly-sounding bullshit." "Is that... what your father's like?" "Ah, that's not a good subject." "Hey, I gotta go, man." "I'm sorry." "Thanks again for the sandwich and stuff." "Hold on a second." "Wait." "I know you think that I'm your father, don't you?" "What?" "Just tell me." "You can talk to me, chief." "Man, you're fucked up." "Wait a second." "Wait a second." "Wait!"
