00:01 Is that that guy Robert again?
00:03 Listen, concession stand girl, why don't you
00:07 give me your number?
00:10 Wait, you never said where he goes to school.
00:12 I think he just works.
00:15 Oysters, come on.
00:17 He has cats.
00:18 His eyes are nice.
00:19 They crinkle.
00:20 Yeah, because he's old.
00:23 I think I really like him.
00:24 As promised.
00:27 I'm not saying I will have sex with him,
00:29 but I think he would like it.
00:31 Why are we having this conversation?
00:32 He's a terrible kisser.
00:33 Listen to me.
00:43 Call it a night.
00:45 Hey, do we want to do this?
00:47 This is the worst life decision I've ever made.
00:58 I had a good time tonight.
01:00 Didn't you?
01:01 Yeah.
01:02 So what was his go-to move, the reverse squatting cowgirl?
01:10 Were his cats at least cute?
01:12 I never saw them.
01:14 Uh-oh.
01:17 Why lie about having cats?
01:20 Because liking cats makes a guy seem non-threatening, harmless.
01:25 He's hiding something.
01:28 [MUSIC - "I'M THE MONSTER"]
01:29 I'm the monster in your mind.
01:32 I need to keep someone away from me.
01:37 You scared me.
01:38 People choose to be scared.
01:40 Can't say I'm surprised to find lovely ladies like yourselves
01:45 in here looking for protection.
01:47 Kelvin, you need to shut that shit down right now.
01:51 What is the matter with you?
01:52 You manipulated me.
01:56 So he called you a whore.
01:58 If you want to get along with a man
02:01 and not be alone your whole entire life,
02:03 make peace with a little discomfort.
02:09 One of us has to die.
02:10 [HORN HONKING]
02:11 [GROANING]
02:12 [SCREAMING]
02:13 I am the monster.
