00:00:00Well, I suppose you want me to say something revealing.
00:00:09Like I was abused my whole life, and I came to L.A. to become an actress so that I would
00:00:15be embraced by others and be loved.
00:00:19Something like that, right?
00:00:21That's the story of a lot of girls that come into this town, but it's not my story.
00:00:27Hey!
00:00:31What are you doing?
00:00:33Making our living space more livable.
00:00:37What's your story then?
00:00:40Well, I wasn't abused by my father, and I come from a very happy family.
00:00:49How was your audition?
00:00:53I didn't go.
00:00:56You didn't go, so what did you do?
00:01:00What does it look like I did?
00:01:03Oh, come on, don't start with me.
00:01:05It was a stupid piece of shit movie.
00:01:09I just feel this energy.
00:01:11I think it's very inspiring.
00:01:13And I don't care what anyone says about this town and how it isolates you.
00:01:16I'm not a negative person like that.
00:01:18I'm very positive.
00:01:21In fact, lately, I feel like something really big is about to happen to me.
00:01:28Seriously? I am this close to being driven into a fucking mental institution.
00:01:33You are making me feel like I am going fucking crazy.
00:01:36Don't start with me, Jesus Christ!
00:01:37No, you're a fucking incredible bitch!
00:01:39Okay, don't fucking sound all of a scream at me like that!
00:01:42Go and change! You stink! You fucking stink!
00:01:46Oh, that's really fucking nice.
00:01:49Don't shut the door on me!
00:01:51Don't shut the fucking door on me or I'll fucking kill you!
00:01:58You know something?
00:02:00You're much better than my therapist.
00:02:02And I pay him a lot.
00:02:05Did you ever think about becoming a therapist instead of doing what you're doing?
00:03:19No.

00:05:27How are you?
00:05:28La la la la.
00:05:30Mina reading the newspaper.
00:05:33Would you get that fucking thing out of my face?
00:05:35Oh, come on.
00:05:37Let me just ask you a few questions.
00:05:38You're 12.
00:05:39You're like acting like you're 12.
00:05:40Let me ask you a few questions.
00:05:42Mina, how's your day?
00:05:44Robert, fuck off.
00:05:46You're stubborn.
00:05:47Okay, someone has a little attitude today.
00:05:50Come on, I'm trying to find some things.
00:05:52That thing is your life.
00:05:54Robert, get the fuck, I'm gonna hit that thing.
00:05:57Does Mina need a light?
00:05:58Oh, Mina's got a light.
00:05:59Don't make me laugh.
00:06:00It's off.

00:06:12No, no, no, it's off.
00:06:13Turn it back on.
00:06:14Here's the first question of the day.
00:06:15What would you like for breakfast?
00:06:16Eggs.
00:06:18Look how cute you look right now.
00:06:23I want eggs.
00:06:31I told him I wanted to see people and he said the same.
00:06:35And that was it.
00:06:37No fights, no arguments, no suicides.
00:06:43So, what are you gonna do now?
00:06:45I think I'm just gonna take a drive up through the Bay Area.
00:06:49Stay in one of those bed and breakfast hangouts.
00:06:53Maybe take some pictures, write.
00:06:57Maybe meet a nice man.

00:07:00Yeah.
00:07:01Why not?
00:07:03I gotta get out of here for a while.
00:07:06Is it like that?
00:07:07Yeah, it's like that.
00:07:09You understand how overwhelming this all can be.
00:07:12Yeah, I'm sure.
00:07:15So how is everything?

00:12:13people.
00:12:14They live their lives, not like you sit around and fucking drink and regret everything.
00:12:18Much different.
00:12:19Don't even start with me right now.
00:12:20You know, I'm on the medication.
00:12:24I don't want to hear this bullshit from you.
00:12:31You know when I first met you, you were all theatrical and prissy like this.
00:12:39I thought it was so beautiful.
00:12:41I'm crazy about you.
00:12:50Does that make you scared a little bit?
00:12:53Yeah. A lot.
00:12:55Yeah? Why?
00:12:57Because I don't think you know how much power you have over me.
00:13:03I think you're adorable. I think you're hot.
00:13:06And I want you.
00:13:08Really?
00:13:09Yeah.
00:13:10A little bit?
00:13:12Do you love me?
00:13:17Yes, I do.
00:13:40Come on.
00:13:45Do it.
00:13:48Ow!
00:14:06That's an Oscar-worthy performance, wouldn't you say?
00:14:13Golden Globe, maybe.
00:14:17It was a hit in Thailand, anyway.
00:14:22Daniel?
00:14:28You hate that you married a failure, don't you?
00:14:32Can't even stand to be with me anymore.
00:14:35What?
00:14:37It's a terrible thing to say.
00:14:39But it's true.
00:14:41I see the way you talk to your friends about me.
00:14:44You don't think I know.
00:14:46And I see the way you look at me.
00:14:48It's like you wish you were somewhere else.
00:14:52I feel like I'm losing it.
00:15:07Lunch today?
00:15:17Elizabeth.
00:15:19Don't smoke. It's bad for you.
00:15:22You're so strong, so rebellious.
00:15:25Are you that stressed out?
00:15:27No.
00:15:29How can I relax you?
00:15:35Come here.
00:15:39Come here.
00:15:42Come here.
00:15:56How come you're always so happy?
00:15:59I don't think I've ever seen you angry.
00:16:02What's out there that's worth getting angry about?
00:16:06To me, it's all a joke.
00:16:09I don't know how people can take everything so seriously.
00:16:14I mean, the city's a farce.
00:16:16I don't take everything so seriously.
00:16:18Oh, yes, you do.
00:16:20I don't. I just think things should be a certain way, and they're not.
00:16:23Shh, shh, shh.
00:16:25Now, just close your eyes.
00:16:27David, what are you doing?
00:16:29Quiet. Just close your eyes.
00:16:35Now, listen to me.
00:16:37What do you see?
00:16:41I see...
00:16:44my heart beating.
00:16:46Elizabeth.
00:16:48I do. I see my heart beating like a...
00:16:52big, red, pulsing tomato.
00:17:08So, I got it.
00:17:10The sales job in New York, I got it.
00:17:12They called me this morning.
00:17:15So, you're gonna take it?
00:17:19You could come, too.
00:17:21No, I don't like New York. It's too dangerous.
00:17:24Oh, like there's no danger here.
00:17:26It's different. New York's a different place.
00:17:29It's a different city.
00:17:31It's a different city.
00:17:33It's a different city.
00:17:36It's different. New York, you know, people get mugged in subways,
00:17:39mugged in taxis, walking down the streets.
00:17:41You're a real crazy, paranoid woman. You would fit well there.
00:17:45No, I'm not.
00:17:49So, when do you leave?
00:17:51Next week.
00:17:53The sooner, the better. I hate it here. It's too frustrating.
00:17:56Will you hide it well?
00:17:58Yeah, maybe.
00:18:01I'm gonna miss you, you know?
00:18:06I won't miss you.
00:18:30I won't miss you.
00:19:00I won't miss you.
00:19:21Let's have you go to the right first, yeah?
00:19:24So, go around to the right. Turn just slightly, pan.
00:19:31Now, look back at the camera. Be sexy, lots of energy.
00:19:34Okay.
00:19:36Right, girls. Right, that's right. That's it.
00:19:39That's great. That's it. That's it. I'm loving it.
00:19:51You came.
00:19:53It's good to see you.
00:19:55Nice to see you.
00:20:01Can I get one of those?
00:20:03So, what do you think?
00:20:05It's nice. I never knew you took it this far.
00:20:09This is nothing. You'll see what we're gonna do later.
00:20:14Wow, you look great. Maybe I could get a copy of the photos or something.
00:20:18I'm sure it could be arranged.
00:20:23I like her.
00:20:25Yeah, she's pretty hot, huh, Kelly? I'd like to taste her sometime.
00:20:29Yeah, yeah.
00:20:33So, what do you think of my little diamond collection? Here's a lighter.
00:20:37Oh, nice.
00:20:39I can't tell you. It's incredible how I find girls like these to photograph.
00:20:43You'd think I'd get bored of it after all this time I've been doing this.
00:20:46They make a lot of money doing this?
00:20:48You know, there's porn, but it doesn't pay as much as the escorting.
00:20:52What, you mean hooking?
00:20:54No, not at all, no.
00:20:56It's bullshit, you know, talking about high-class escort.
00:20:59You know, attorneys, movie producers, stockbrokers.
00:21:02But they do well, though, you know.
00:21:04You suck some old, drunken, rich guy a fat, slim cock for ten minutes,
00:21:07and you've got yourself ten fucking grand.
00:21:09Sounds like a good gig. You ever thought about being a pimp?
00:21:12Fuck you, Robert. A lot of people get laid, so why not get paid for it, huh?
00:21:21I'm ready. Let's go.
00:21:26Let's go.
00:21:57Buddy! Buddy!
00:22:01I wanna touch that buddy!
00:22:04I wanna touch that buddy!
00:22:07I wanna touch that buddy!
00:22:16Can I get another one?
00:22:17Sure thing.
00:22:18Can I get a double, please?
00:22:19Look at that girl out there.
00:22:21It's her every night, hanging out with those guys.
00:22:23You know those guys?
00:22:24The water? It's the guys.
00:22:26Aluminum in the sky? The guys.
00:22:28You know the guys?
00:22:29The girl, she's with the guys.
00:22:31Girls like this, what they do is they drive a guy wild.
00:22:33So watch out. The guys!
00:22:42I had a great time tonight.
00:22:44Thank you, Robert.
00:22:48I love you. I love you, love you, love you, Robert.
00:22:51I love you.
00:22:53Wait, wait, wait. Where are you going? I'll kiss goodnight.
00:23:14Call me, okay?
00:23:16We'll do this again sometime.
00:23:19You know, I don't know if I should let you drive home.
00:23:21You seem a little drunk.
00:23:23I could stay at your place.
00:23:36But you can't.
00:23:50What a beautiful one he is.
00:23:54I had several like him myself.
00:23:57Within six to twelve seconds,
00:23:59after the solution is injected,
00:24:03he will take a slightly deeper breath.
00:24:06Then he'll grow weak.
00:24:09And then he'll die.
00:24:11And then he'll die.
00:24:13And then he'll die.
00:24:15And then he'll die.
00:24:18And then he'll finally lapse into
00:24:21what looks like a deep sleep.
00:24:25I really hate to do this.
00:24:28Yes, I hate to do this.
00:24:30But FIV is an incurable disease.
00:24:37Yes, I love this little guy. I love him so much.
00:24:42Hey!
00:24:44It's done.
00:24:47I said it's done.
00:24:49It's finished!
00:24:52Yeah.
00:24:54Very true.
00:25:11What are you doing?
00:25:13Oh my God.
00:25:15What are you reading?
00:25:18Robert.
00:25:20I'm not kidding.
00:25:22Will you go make me a drink or something?
00:25:27How do you like it?
00:25:29Could you make it really weak, please?
00:25:31Really weak.
00:25:33Okay.
00:25:36Really weak drink for me, man.
00:25:41Da-da-da-da-da-da.
00:25:44And a really nice one for me.
00:25:50Here you go. Here's your nice drink.
00:25:54You're welcome.
00:25:55To you!
00:25:57Woo!
00:25:58This one's for you.
00:26:00I'm drinking to Mina now.
00:26:03Can we just have a drink, will you?
00:26:05Please, really. Just turn that thing off.
00:26:07Come on. I thought you liked being on camera.
00:26:09No, Robert.
00:26:14Robert, turn the fucking thing off.
00:26:16Okay, it's off.
00:26:22It's not off. He's such a liar.
00:26:32You're insane.
00:26:35Kiss the camera.
00:26:37Kiss the camera, kiss the camera, kiss the camera.
00:26:43This is me and Mina kissing.
00:26:55Robert.
00:27:04Robert.
00:27:18Honey?
00:27:27Honey?
00:27:35Oh, my God.
00:27:37Oh, my God.
00:27:39Ugh.
00:28:04Surprise!
00:28:07I think that this house needs a little livening up, doesn't it?
00:28:13Celebration of my little breakfast.
00:28:18For you, my dear.
00:28:20Here. Dance with me.
00:28:22Careful.
00:28:23Look at the sky.
00:28:24I'm smelling this.
00:28:25Look at the sky.
00:28:26This is Mars.
00:28:27It's the brightest it's been in 5,000 years.
00:28:31Watch out.
00:28:32Stop. Stop.
00:28:34Come on. Don't be such a party pooper.
00:28:36Stop.
00:28:38Okay, fine.
00:28:40I'm fine.
00:28:41No martini for you.
00:28:43I'm just doing it by myself. I don't need you.
00:28:47By myself.
00:28:49You know what your problem is?
00:28:56Your glass is half empty.
00:28:58Negative, negative, negative. That's your problem.
00:29:02Negative?
00:29:03That's fine. You know what I'll just do for myself?
00:29:05I will just, you know, encourage myself.
00:29:09I'll inspire myself.
00:29:12I'll console myself.
00:29:14I'll fuck myself!
00:29:16Fuck you, Mars!
00:29:22Man.
00:29:27I will light my own cigarette.
00:29:34Fuck.
00:29:44But I drink to you.
00:29:57Fuck.
00:30:03Fuck.
00:30:33Fuck.
00:30:57Hello?
00:30:58Hey, Karina, it's Robert.
00:31:00Hello?
00:31:01It's Robert.
00:31:02Who?
00:31:03Robert!
00:31:04Gotcha, didn't I?
00:31:05Well, whoever this is, you are a dear friend of mine,
00:31:08and I want you to leave a message because I know whatever is on your mind is important.
00:31:12And if there's a problem you've got, there's an answer.
00:31:15God bless.
00:31:17Karina, that's fucked up.
00:31:19It's Robert. Call me back, alright?
00:31:21Alright, bye.
00:31:27Hello?
00:31:29Hey, it's Robert.
00:31:31Hello?
00:31:36Hello?
00:31:39Who?
00:31:46Who?
00:31:56Hello?
00:31:59Hello?
00:32:01Hello?
00:32:12I hate you, Robert.
00:32:16Fucking asshole.
00:32:18Stop. Just let me out.
00:32:20I'm not kidding.
00:32:21Fuck you.
00:32:22What are you doing? Stop it.
00:32:24Stop it.
00:32:25Let me out. Fine.
00:32:27Just let me fucking out.
00:32:32Fuck.
00:32:40You know what?
00:32:41Just so you fucking know, I have never felt this way before.
00:32:45I've never been this fucking mean before.
00:32:47And I think it's because of you.
00:32:49Would you stop? Would you just fucking look at me for a second?
00:32:52This isn't working for me, okay?
00:32:54I don't fucking want...
00:32:57I'm tired of you mind-fucking me.
00:32:59We used to talk, remember that? Communicate, work things out.
00:33:02What the fuck is this? What the fuck was that in the car?
00:33:04Why the fuck is all the drinking and you telling me I drink too goddamn much?
00:33:07Karina, I'm saying shit.
00:33:08I've never been this pissed off in my fucking life.
00:33:27I don't know, Robert.
00:33:32I really have loved you, but...
00:33:34I mean, I'm older than you, you know?
00:33:37And I just feel like I've been in a fog for the last two years.
00:33:43You're not happy. I'm not happy.
00:33:47I'm not happy.
00:33:49I just can't... I can't continue like this any more.
00:33:57I just think we're not meant to be together.
00:34:00I don't know what to do.
00:34:02I can't do this.
00:34:04I can't do this.
00:34:06I just can't.
00:34:08I can't do this.
00:34:10I just think we should just...
00:34:40Fuck.
00:35:10Fuck.
00:35:40Fuck.
00:36:11Fuck.
00:36:14We're sorry. You're called...
00:36:40Come on.
00:36:55Beautiful.
00:37:11Hello?
00:37:24Robert?
00:37:37Hey, Ben.
00:37:40What are you doing?
00:37:42Making our living space more livable.
00:37:46Are you not coming with me?
00:37:48We have to leave in ten minutes.
00:37:50Coming where?
00:37:54My work party.
00:37:56Oh, fuck.
00:37:57Oh, fuck!
00:37:59Are you fucking kidding?
00:38:01I totally forgot. I'm so sorry.
00:38:03No! No! You're not going!
00:38:05You're not going!
00:38:06Well, that's fine! I won't fucking go!
00:38:08Let's go back to my table.
00:38:26It's a nice place, right? You like it here?
00:38:29Yeah, it's really cool.
00:38:33Do you want a drink or something?
00:38:35Mm-hmm. Apple martini.
00:38:37All right. I'll be right back.
00:38:39Okay.
00:38:45Hi.
00:38:47Can I get a glass of champagne?
00:38:53Action.
00:38:54I know why you're here.
00:38:56See you later.
00:38:57Bye!
00:38:59Welcome.
00:39:00Hi.
00:39:01I'm Thomas.
00:39:03Hi.
00:39:18Elizabeth!
00:39:20Elizabeth!
00:39:23Oh, my God!
00:39:24Hi!
00:39:25So good to see you!
00:39:27You too!
00:39:28You don't call anymore. Is everything okay?
00:39:30Oh, yeah.
00:39:31This is my new guy.
00:39:33Don't you think he's just so handsome?
00:39:35Nice to meet you.
00:39:37You are looking beautiful.
00:39:40Oh, thank you.
00:39:42So how have you been?
00:39:43I'm good. How have you been?
00:39:44Are you here with Summer?
00:39:45No, I'm actually...
00:39:46Look.
00:39:47I'm just here on my own.
00:39:48Ravishing.
00:39:49Well, we should get together soon?
00:39:52Definitely.
00:39:53Yeah? Okay.
00:39:55I'll talk to you soon.
00:39:56Okay.
00:39:57Bye!
00:40:01Bye!
00:40:02Bye!
00:40:32Robert?
00:40:35Hi.
00:40:37So how long has it been?
00:40:40Three years.
00:40:43I can't believe it's been that long since I kicked you out.
00:40:47I distinctly remember leaving on my own.
00:40:49Like a gentleman.
00:40:50Hmm.
00:40:51I distinctly remember you being very close to being arrested.
00:40:56Yeah.
00:40:57The crazy nights, they seem less crazy now.
00:40:59Crazy, not crazier.
00:41:02I stopped drinking.
00:41:06Are you seeing anyone?
00:41:08Kind of hard to live with.
00:41:10What about you?
00:41:12I'm married.
00:41:15Yes, I'm married.
00:41:17A year.
00:41:18We've been together three years, right after you and I.
00:41:22How is it? You like it?
00:41:24Yeah, I do. It's good.
00:41:27It's a very realistic kind of love, you know?
00:41:33It's not fantasy or fireworks or...
00:41:37You got no fireworks?
00:41:40No.
00:41:41Not even small, tiny fireworks?
00:41:43No.
00:41:47You still got your hat in place?
00:41:50Yeah.
00:41:51I'm not going to tell you where it is, though.
00:41:53Come on, I'll show you my hat in place right now.
00:41:55Come on, I'll show you my hat in place if you show me yours.
00:42:01I know where yours is, every bar in L.A.
00:42:03Look at that, we have no more secrets left.
00:42:07I have a place by the beach.
00:42:14Rocks and seagulls and...
00:42:17waves, you know.
00:42:19Sounds good, let's do it.
00:42:26You look good.
00:42:29Yeah?
00:42:30Yeah, you do. I didn't think I'd ever see you again.
00:42:36What time is it?
00:42:402.14.
00:42:42Are you kidding me?
00:42:44What time do we leave the party?
00:42:4610.32.
00:42:49I bet you didn't expect to be spending so much time with me tonight, huh?
00:42:54What's your husband going to think about all this?
00:42:56What's your girlfriend going to think?
00:42:58She ran off with an old sleazy guy.
00:43:01Oh, didn't you want to rescue her?
00:43:03Nope. These people never give up hope.
00:43:09You seem different.
00:43:11Yeah, how so?
00:43:13I don't know, just...
00:43:16calmer...
00:43:19smarter...
00:43:20Oh, I take that back.
00:43:23I don't know, maybe it's your...
00:43:25suit.
00:43:26Makes me think you've matured.
00:43:34I gotta go. I have to get up early for work.
00:43:42Bye.
00:43:53Bye.
00:44:23Bye.
00:44:54Hi.
00:44:55Hi.
00:44:56I got your electronic mail.
00:45:00Figured I'd call you back.
00:45:04I was just wondering if you wanted to get a drink tonight.
00:45:24Hello, this is Robert.
00:45:26Yeah, you know what to do. Bye.
00:45:42Yeah, thanks.
00:45:46Don't stretch them, they're brand new.
00:45:48Oh my god.
00:45:49What?
00:45:50I'm blind.
00:45:51A little.
00:45:52I know.
00:45:54There you go.
00:45:55I don't think they suit me.
00:46:00So why are you spending all this time with me?
00:46:05Well, we're friends, right?
00:46:10And it's good because we've already...
00:46:13you know, so you're no longer obsessing over trying to...
00:46:18I might be obsessing again.
00:46:23No.
00:46:25No, I think we should be friends.
00:46:30Well, if I'd known you were like this now, we could have been...
00:46:36I don't know, I mean, our relationship was just so...
00:46:41I don't know, I mean, our relationship was just so...
00:46:44Our relationship was just so...
00:46:49strange and just...
00:46:53It just left me feeling very...
00:46:56off and very much like I needed to be in therapy.
00:47:02Why do you say that?
00:47:03I don't know.
00:47:15I love you.
00:47:17I really, really love you.
00:47:20And I don't want to lose you.
00:47:23I really need to hear your voice.
00:47:24Could you call me back?
00:47:26Don't make me beg.
00:47:28Call me back.
00:47:30Okay, so I sounded like a real idiot there.
00:47:33Robert, I know you're there.
00:47:36Will you pick up the goddamn phone?
00:47:41Hi.
00:47:43Hi.
00:47:46I know who you're with.
00:47:50You're in bed with her, aren't you?
00:47:55You know your life and my life have no meaning without each other.
00:48:01I really think it's true.
00:48:02I mean, I just think this is something we're going through.
00:48:04Would you please pick up the goddamn phone?
00:48:07Robert, if you don't call me back, I'm gonna...
00:48:11You know, I mean...
00:48:14No one knows what we have.
00:48:17Even the people...
00:48:19Okay, Robert, I can't live like this.
00:48:21Okay, I can't live without you. It's just impossible.
00:48:24Are you there?
00:48:25Are you fucking listening to this?
00:48:28If I found out that you are in bed fucking someone,
00:48:32I would fucking kill you.
00:48:34I swear I would.
00:48:37I'm gonna come over there.
00:48:38If you're not home, I'm gonna sit outside.
00:48:42Goddamn you! I mean, why are you doing this to me?
00:48:44You son of a bitch!
00:48:47I hate you enough right now to fucking kill you.
00:48:50You stupid ass...
00:49:09It's kind of like playing hooky, huh?
00:49:22You know, I can never kiss you properly.
00:49:25It must be painful for a man to have a wife like me.
00:49:29You can tell me what I'm doing right, what I'm doing wrong.
00:49:32You never complimented me when we were together.
00:49:35That's because you were a skinny, cold-hearted bitch back then.
00:49:39Well, I'm not skinny anymore.
00:49:41How about a drink? You want a drink?
00:49:43I can't. I gotta go home.
00:49:45Come on, it's so early. It's 11.43. It's not even daytime yet.
00:49:49You didn't even try to get to know me.
00:49:51You didn't give me enough time.
00:49:54You didn't give me enough stability.
00:49:57You didn't give me enough affection.
00:50:01You didn't give me enough laughs.
00:50:03You didn't give me enough insults.
00:50:06That's huge! I can't drink that.
00:50:08No, it's not. It just looks huge.
00:50:10Oh, my God.
00:50:34Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.
00:50:37Oh, my God.
00:51:07Oh, my God.
00:51:38Fuck.
00:51:48You're seeing somebody, aren't you?
00:51:52You are. I fucking know you are.
00:51:56Come on, relax. Relax.
00:51:58No, I'm not gonna relax.
00:52:00Robin, get the fuck off me.
00:52:02Don't fucking touch me right now.
00:52:04Stop.
00:52:05You stop.
00:52:07Stop it. Stop it.
00:52:11You never fucking call me back.
00:52:20I'm gonna let go of you.
00:52:37I don't want it.
00:53:07Fuck.
00:53:37Fuck.
00:53:58So tell me about your last boyfriend.
00:54:02That's personal.
00:54:04Did you love him?
00:54:07Robin, I'm not good at these questions.
00:54:38You must be in deep shit, honey.
00:54:42I haven't seen you since December.
00:54:45Yeah, I wanted to see you.
00:54:47You look beautiful.
00:54:49Oh, I could never resist your bullshit compliments, Robert.
00:54:54So, what is it now?
00:54:56What's made you remember I exist?
00:54:58What's the matter?
00:55:00I don't know.
00:55:02I just feel like I need to know.
00:55:04You don't remember I exist?
00:55:06What's the matter?
00:55:08There's no matter here.
00:55:10Your look betrays.
00:55:13Maybe it's the elevation.
00:55:15Or the god-awful look of this place.
00:55:17You don't like the peace?
00:55:19No, I do. I do.
00:55:22You miss me, Robert?
00:55:24Yeah, I do.
00:55:35So, what is it now?
00:55:37What poor woman is driving you to madness?
00:55:41No, no, don't tell me. Thank you.
00:55:44The insecure?
00:55:46No, no, the suicidal?
00:55:48Thank you so much.
00:55:50Oh, you're welcome.
00:55:51I'm exactly suicidal.
00:55:53Married, huh? Guaranteed lay.
00:55:55What is it you want, dear?
00:55:58Just to remain in one piece, I guess.
00:56:01Well, I don't know.
00:56:03You've always thrived on it.
00:56:05The chaos.
00:56:07Destruction.
00:56:09Wreckage.
00:56:11You have, ever since you were big enough to go down on women.
00:56:14I'm just tired.
00:56:16You ever have a girl, you know, disappear on you?
00:56:19These girls, they're...
00:56:21Yes?
00:56:23You know, this business that you're in.
00:56:25Oh, you make it sound so mean.
00:56:27This business that you're in.
00:56:29What are you stuttering about?
00:56:31Winter goes by.
00:56:33Well, my girls aren't suicidal.
00:56:35Spring goes by, and they don't destroy lives.
00:56:37They want to live.
00:56:39And then, by summertime, my girl returns.
00:56:41Listen, you're gonna have to remember one thing, okay?
00:56:45I'm the only woman you're going to love completely.
00:56:52So, what are you looking for?
00:56:54What do you want?
00:56:57I want comfort.
00:56:59I want stability.
00:57:01I want...
00:57:03I don't know what I want.
00:57:07We should just stay up here.
00:57:09Never go back.
00:57:13I feel like a stranger.
00:57:17Like my marriage is this...
00:57:20random, disconnected...
00:57:23diary entry.
00:57:25You have a diary?
00:57:27No.
00:57:53No.
00:58:15I don't think we should.
00:58:19In my office.
00:58:23Okay.
00:58:54You're spending too much time with somebody who's married.
00:59:12Evie, there's a bunch of reporters out there that want to talk to you.
00:59:16You want to stick back?
00:59:18No.
00:59:20I shouldn't.
00:59:28Robert, come here!
00:59:30Relax.
00:59:34Hey, there she is!
00:59:36There she is!
00:59:38...with the world-knowing news...
00:59:40about your nomination.
00:59:42You want to make it, right?
00:59:44You want to make it, right?
00:59:46You want to make it, right?
00:59:48You want to make it, right?
00:59:52Oh, Robbie!
00:59:54Take your tongues off.
00:59:56Robbie!
01:00:00You want to make it, right?
01:00:02You want to make it, right?
01:00:04How do you feel about the nomination?
01:00:07Robert, come here.
01:00:09Get in the water.
01:00:12Now, Robert.
01:00:18Over here, honey.
01:00:24You can come outside.
01:00:26We're having a good time.
01:00:30Where are you going?
01:00:40Go.
01:00:44Over here.
01:00:46Come on.
01:00:50Don't go.
01:00:52I mean it.
01:00:58Please, Robert.
01:01:16I love you.
01:01:18I love you, too.
01:01:46Beth?
01:01:54Beth?
01:01:58Beth?
01:02:02Are you all right?
01:02:08Can I get you anything?
01:02:10I got the report.
01:02:12We need to have it to Mr. Kittay by 4 p.m.
01:02:16Where should I tell him?
01:02:40All right.
01:03:10We can't do this anymore, okay?
01:03:14This can't happen again, okay?
01:03:40Oh, God.
01:04:10Oh, God.
01:04:40Oh, God.
01:05:00Hi, you've reached Elizabeth.
01:05:02Hi.
01:05:08Hi, you've reached Elizabeth and Daniel.
01:05:10You've reached Elizabeth and Daniel.
01:05:32Hello?
01:05:34Hey, it's me.
01:05:36I left you a bunch of messages.
01:05:38You didn't call me back.
01:05:40Robert, I'm married.
01:05:42Yeah, I know.
01:05:44I just want to see you a second.
01:05:46That's all.
01:05:48No, you're not listening to me.
01:05:50You're being paranoid.
01:05:52You think your fucked-up marriage
01:05:54is something I want to be a part of,
01:05:56but it ain't.
01:05:58Stop calling me.
01:06:00Hi.
01:06:12Hi.
01:06:14Stop calling me, okay?
01:06:20Who was that?
01:06:24Oh, it's just Cynthia.
01:06:26Oh.
01:06:28Fine?
01:06:30I mean, what's she doing?
01:06:32Is she okay?
01:06:34Yeah.
01:06:38Is she sick?
01:06:40Sick.
01:06:44Are you sick?
01:06:46No.
01:06:48Does she have a cold or something?
01:06:50No.
01:06:52Do you have a cold?
01:06:54Daniel, stop it.
01:06:56Because she doesn't look sick.
01:06:58Or sound sick.
01:07:00Stop it.
01:07:02But you, you look sick.
01:07:04Your eyes, your skin looks pale.
01:07:06Cynthia, she developed a deep masculine voice.
01:07:08What, are you listening to me on the other line?
01:07:10I'm the one who's asking
01:07:12the fucking questions here.
01:07:16Stop it!
01:07:18Who is he?
01:07:20I don't know.
01:07:22Don't you fucking lie to me!
01:07:24Who is he?
01:07:26Who's this guy you wanna fuck?
01:07:28I'm not fucking anyone!
01:07:30What's he do, huh? What's his name?
01:07:32What's his zodiac sign?
01:07:34Stop it.
01:07:36Who is he?
01:07:38Just tell me the truth for once.
01:07:40Tell me the goddamn truth.
01:07:42You wanna know the truth?
01:07:46You wanna know why I continue to stay with you
01:07:48and put up with all this shit?
01:07:51Because I do not waste three years of my life
01:07:54only to leave the minute you start
01:07:56throwing shit
01:07:58all over the fucking house!
01:08:02The minute you start puking up
01:08:04God knows what
01:08:06all over the floor!
01:08:08The minute you start rearranging
01:08:10the fucking furniture
01:08:12every ten minutes so every time I come home from work
01:08:14I don't know if I'm in the right
01:08:16fucking house!
01:08:18Maybe you're not in the right fucking house!
01:08:28You wanna know why?
01:08:30Huh?
01:08:32Do you wanna know why?
01:08:34Huh?
01:08:36You wanna know why, huh?
01:08:38Stop it!
01:08:48Because...
01:08:56Because...
01:09:02So I decided to give it another try.
01:09:04I had a great time up there.
01:09:06It was so relaxing.
01:09:10I just felt like I was doing nothing.
01:09:12I mean, I didn't feel alive anymore.
01:09:15So here I am.
01:09:17Back in the city.
01:09:19Can't escape it
01:09:21and I can't run away anymore.
01:09:25Hey, babe, you haven't said anything.
01:09:27You alright?
01:09:32Yeah, I'm okay.
01:09:34You don't look so good.
01:09:36I'm just tired.
01:09:38I just...
01:09:40I don't know, my mind feels...
01:09:42numb.
01:09:44It's the job.
01:09:46I'm just tired.
01:09:48I can't...
01:09:50really...
01:09:52explain it.
01:09:54It's like this, my...
01:09:58Have you been drinking?
01:10:00I'm just tired.
01:10:02Maybe you should think about going back into therapy.
01:10:04No.
01:10:06You could always try medication.
01:10:08There's Prozac
01:10:10Paxil
01:10:12Zoloft
01:10:14Butrin
01:10:16Percocet
01:10:18Valium
01:10:20Vicodin
01:10:22Barbital
01:10:24Benzodiaphine
01:10:26That's for animals, I think.
01:10:28Not people.
01:10:40I don't know.
01:10:54I'll get me ten again, then.
01:11:01How about one more?

01:14:26Hi
01:14:28Hi
01:14:31What happened to you?
01:14:34It's been a rough couple of days, I guess.
01:14:36You're telling me.
01:14:42Is that a new look?
01:14:46Keep it on.
01:14:54I'm never gonna take this hat off, Robert.
01:15:00So, what are you doing here?
01:15:02I didn't expect to find you in the same place.
01:15:06It's been a while, hasn't it?
01:15:12Did that hurt a lot?
01:15:14No, not at all.
01:15:20This fucking camera, man!
01:15:22I can't fucking stand it anymore!
01:15:24And you don't care!
01:15:26Asshole!
01:15:30Would you like that?
01:15:32I just broke it.
01:15:34It's not funny.
01:15:36You think this is funny?
01:15:38Fucking asshole.
01:15:52Yeah, I'll shot the fuck out of you!
01:15:54I'll shoot the fuck out of you!
01:16:00I can't even just sit here and have a conversation with you.
01:16:02You really don't give a shit about me, do you?
01:16:04You don't give a shit about me
01:16:06until you just ask me if you'd like to provoke me.
01:16:08Right?
01:16:12Fuck you.
01:16:14Come here.
01:16:16Come here.
01:16:18Come on.
01:16:24Come on.
01:16:54Come on.
01:17:24Come on.
01:17:54Come on.
01:18:24Come on.
01:18:54Come on.
01:19:14Elizabeth!
01:19:16Elizabeth!
01:19:18Wait!
01:19:24Wait!
01:19:30Stop! Why are you here?
01:19:32I don't want you anymore.
01:19:34I don't need you anymore.
01:19:36I just want to talk to you for a sec.
01:19:38Come on.
01:19:40Why are you running from me?
01:19:42Why don't you just talk to me?
01:19:44Please!
01:19:54Stop!
01:20:24Stop!
01:20:34Stop!
01:20:54Stop!
01:21:08We had a fight.
01:21:12I just can't...
01:21:14abandon him, you know?
01:21:18Just throw him away
01:21:20because he isn't who I thought he was.
01:21:24It's okay.
01:21:34It's okay to be a little crazy.
01:21:38Everyone is.
01:21:46So what happened to you?
01:21:48You look like shit.
01:21:50Yeah, I don't sleep much anymore.
01:21:52Probably not.
01:21:54You fucking better.
01:22:14I don't know what to think sometimes
01:22:16when you look at me like that, Robert.
01:22:18What do you mean?
01:22:22Like a pervert.
01:22:24I'm not a pervert.
01:22:26Yes, you are.
01:22:28That little laugh of yours.
01:22:52You're the most beautiful person
01:22:54I've ever known.
01:23:02I really think we're soulmates.
01:23:04I do.
01:23:06I think we've been searching for each other
01:23:08for such a long time.
01:23:10And now
01:23:12we're here together.
01:23:14Don't you think that's magical?
01:23:16Yeah.
01:23:18I mean,
01:23:20don't you think that's magical?
01:23:22Yeah, like a little girl's fairy tale.
01:23:24Would you stop with the cold stuff?
01:23:28You're always hiding behind that camera.
01:23:34Kind of handsome, aren't I?
01:23:36Actually, yes.
01:23:42Come closer.
01:23:50Sigh.
