( Soft music playing )

( Door opening )

Tad?

Is that you?

You're early.

Time to kiss your sweet ass goodbye, cupcake.

( Screaming )

( Stabbing sounds )

Seriously, several people have told me that my scene is really, like, the only one that's even remotely scary.

Becky, you make a major impact in this movie.

Major.

Like, somebody even said that Angelica's scene, it wasn't even scary at all, like, it was funny, and not in a good way.

We have to make sure that you don't get pigeon-holed now, which is why I think you shouldn't show your tits anymore.

( Female #1 ) What a piece of sh*t.

( Female #2 ) I know, it makes f*cking "Blair witch 2" look like "Titanic".

It's just so f*cking gratuitous.

Well, I think that what makes this movie different is that the v*olence isn't so gratuitous, it's more, like, the whole movie is about the whole...

Psychological nature of fear.

( Female ) I totally maxed out his visa card paying for it, but then somebody in Joe Roth's office saw it and said it was like, genius, and now he has like three meetings.

Seriously, you could write it.

I've read your poetry and it's really good.

I think I should direct it too.

Yeah, and we should have like, this really hot sex scene, but all like gritty and real, you know, like, European.

I'm not showing my ass.

My manager says I need to stop showing my ass.

( Toilet flushing )

( Female #1 ) You have a piece of toilet paper stuck to your shoe.

( Female #2 ) Shut up, where?

Oh, honey.

Honey?

It's not working.

What?

Oh, no, it's not gonna happen for me.

Alright.

It's not, it's not gonna happen for me.

Sorry.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Don't take it personally.

Oh, don't make this about me.

Oh, am I not allowed to not have sex, for once?

Is that what our relationship is now?

Wait a minute.

You woke me up by going down on me!

I don't know what's wrong with me.

Maybe that car accident we had gave me some weird Oliver Sachs blow-to-the-head disease.

My whole life seems like a bad dream.

It's like...

It's like somebody else's life.

Like if my life were a movie, I'd fall asleep or I'd walk out.

Are you...

Still not seeing any clients?

I can't.

I can't face it.

You know, sometimes you just gotta force yourself to be active...

When you're...

When you're what?

You think I'm depressed?

Are you?

Yeah.

Doesn't mean I want to talk about it.

Okay.

This is my sister-in-law, Angie.

An-heh-Lee-ca.

It's nice to meet you.

Likewise.

And, uh, this is Brody Farrell.

Yo.

Are you the next of kin?

No, Becky's parents d*ed when she was two, she was raised by her grandmother, who also d*ed.

She didn't really have anybody, except us.

I see.

Can I ask who will be...

The cast of the movie, we're all pitching in to pay for it.

Well, we're going to need one person to be designated as the...

Oh, Brody'll do that.

Yeah.

She was sort of my girlfriend.

Now...

Do you know what kind of service you'd like?

Cheap.

Well, we provide a variety of services for the more budget-conscious client.

( Phone ringing )

Sorry, just let me turn this off.

Take it.

I can handle it.

Please excuse me.

David Fisher.

Hi, David, it's Kevin Miller.

You answered my personal ad in the "L.A. weekly"?

I'm the fireman?

Yes, hi.

Hi, of course.

We can start with the most simple of traditional funerals, which would include our American eagle casket here.

I don't think we should Bury her.

Becky was like totally terrified of the dark.

Well, we can still have a viewing, during which the casket will never be closed, followed by a cremation.

That's good, and then we could scatter her ashes some place she really liked, like Griffith park, or the lava lounge on la brea.

Yeah.

I mean, I think we can skip the casket.

Well, you sound like a really nice guy too.

Well, I am a really nice guy.

So, do you want to meet for coffee later this afternoon?

This afternoon? Uh, sure, sure.

I have something at three, but I could meet you after that.

Great, let's say 4:00 at the "up all night" coffeehouse.

I'll be wearing a red baseball cap.

Great, I love red.

I mean, it's one of my favorite colors.

Of which I have several.

Okay, see you then.

Okay.

Now, this is a beautiful and unusual cremains vessel.

The ashes actually fill these dolphins, which are carved out inside...

She wasn't really into dolphins.

I remember...

Somebody suggesting she boycott tuna, you know, because of the whole dolphins getting caught in the net thing, and she said, "f*ck dolphins, I want a niçoise salad."

What are these?

Those are keepsake miniature urns, sort of like lockets, if you will.

So, everybody can get a piece of her.

Yes, it's an old custom from Thailand.

Becky loved Thai food.

So...

What did I miss?

Hey.

I'm sorry I'm late.

Why weren't you in school today?

I was in school today, I just wasn't in American history.

I mean, who needs to know that sh*t anyways, right?

Well, somebody who wants to have some concept of how the world works so he can have a f*cking chance in life.

Whoa, what crawled up your ass?

I mean, it's all lies anyways.

Where were you?

Andy and I skipped out after lunch.

We went to the car museum.

Did you get high?

Yeah.

I'm 18 years old, living in f*cking California.

I'm not allowed to get high?

Hey, I'm worried about you, Gabe.

In case you don't remember, I have good reason to be.

I'm...

I'm sorry, okay?

But...

You don't have to worry about me, I swear.

Please don't lie to me.

I'm not.

Look...

I'm okay.

And I'm gonna stay okay.

As long as I have you.

Let's take a look at your test results.

Well, I have some very good news.

You tested negative for the HIV antibody.

Oh, thank god.

You need to be tested again in six months, just to be safe.

Let's see.

Negative for chlamydia, all the hepatitises, syphilis.

Ooh.

Positive for gonorrhea.

What?

Yeah.

Have you had any pain or difficulty urinating?

No.

Any penile or a**l discharge?

No!

Well, gonorrhea can be completely asymptomatic, but if it's left untreated, it can lead to severe problems down the line.

I'm gonna give you some Cipro, it usually knocks it right out.

Well, this is certainly embarrassing.

Did you engage in unprotected sex?

Uh, yes.

Bad boy.

( Door opening )

Claire.

Yeah?

How was school?

Dull and depressing.

What are you reading?

"Now that you know".

"Now that you know" what?

That David is gay.

Oh.

I take it you knew already.

Yeah.

Well, how do you feel about it?

Are you hurt?

Angry?

Do you wish he wasn't gay?

No.

Those are all valid feelings, you know.

I don't care if he's gay.

Just as long as he's happy.

According to this book, we should all be very open to how we feel and we should try to express those feelings, because the foundation of intimacy is truth.

Okay.

Have you ever had any feelings of same-sex attraction?

What?

No, mom.

It's nothing to be ashamed of.

I know.

When I was your age, I actually had a little crush on Jane Fonda.

Well, she's single again, so, now's your chance.

I just never got into that whole promiscuous thing, you know?

The first guy I had sex with...

I ended up in a relationship with for four years.

One-man kind of guy, always have been.

What about you?

Definitely.

Definitely.

I mean, sex just for the sake of having sex, what is that?

Don't get me wrong, I love sex.

I'm a very sexual being, I just think it's way better when there's something emotional going on behind it, you know?

I credit my parents for that, my mom and dad have been together for almost 40 years and they're still hot for each other.

And they've never been anything but 100% supportive of me.

Wow.

I gotta get to work.

Listen, it's been great meeting you.

Yeah, this was fun.

Would you like to do it again?

I don't think so.

You seem like a really nice guy.

But I gotta be honest, I didn't fee much of a spark.

Can't make it happen if it's not there, right?

Yep.

It definitely looks like avm.

f*ck.

So, now what?

Well, that depends.

Remind me what your symptoms have been.

Headaches.

All the time?

No, just occasionally.

Mostly on the left side of my head.

Yep.

Any seizures, impairment of vision, sense of smell?

Well, once I had like a flutter, just on the edge of my vision.

I'm as blind as a bat, and once I woke up, could see perfectly out of my left eye.

Lasted for like a day and then it went away.

Who knows what the hell that was.

Huh.

So, what next?

Well, let's see.

It's in a not overly eloquent brain area.

Hmm.

Are you left-handed?

No.

That's not good.

Why not?

And it's a little larger than I'd like it to be.

Yeah, it's a little larger than I'd like it to be.

Ugh...

Okay, you want options, I'll give you the big three.

Cranial surgery, not a picnic.

Embolization...

Closing off the blood vessels by injecting glue into them, sometimes we use platinum coils instead.

And finally...

Radiosurgery.

Focused radiation.

Die, you little m*therf*cker!

If I'd never been in a car accident and gotten a routine X-ray of my skull, this would have never even come up, right?

Until something happened.

Well, I mean, it's possible that I could go my entire life without it ever creating a problem.

Well, anything's possible.

Do you think I need surgery?

Well, I can't really say without more tests.

I think you might benefit from embolization.

However, any time you close off the large arteries going into an avm, the smaller blood vessels feeding it tend to increase in size.

Oh, oh, okay, yeah, so, it doesn't really work.

Well, there's only so much we can do.

Oh, god.

f*ck, fine!

You know what, just don't do anything, okay?

I'm just gonna try and put this all out of my head, no pun intended, and get on with my life.

I'm not sure I think...

I don't give a f*ck what you think, you arrogant piece of sh*t.

Okay, even if we decide not to do anything...

There's no "we", I decide.

I'd still like to get another MRI on you in 12 months.

Yeah, and I'd like a f*cking straight answer, assh*le.

It's kind of ironic.

You don't smoke, you run every day, you eat all that healthy crap.

Shut up!

Now, me, I smoked, I drank, I ate any old thing I wanted, and I inhaled embalming fluid for god knows how many years.

And you know what?

If it wasn't for that bus, I would've lived to be 93.

You know, it's the first time I've driven since then, you may want to fasten your seat belt.

Yeah?

Well, who's the dead man in this car, huh?

It's not me!

Whoa!

( Honking horn ) f*ck you!

f*ck you! f*ck you!

We thank you, heavenly father, for this and all thy blessings, in Christ's name, amen.

Amen.

I've invited Nikolai to dinner Sunday night, I'd like you all to be there.

Nikolai, the flower guy?

Yes.

He and I are having a sexual relationship now.

I'm not sure if it's something that's going to last, but...

Well, there it is.

We're all adults, we're all sexual beings.

We should acknowledge that.

Okay.

Nate, I'd like you to invite Brenda, Claire, I'd like you to invite Gabriel Dimas, and David, if you have a special friend, I'd like for him to come as well.

Why is my friend "special"?

Alright, if you're having sex with anyone, I'd like to meet him, is that better?

Not really.

( Laughing )

Stop acting like children!

Where are you going?

I'm just getting an aspirin.

Do you have a headache?

No, I read somewhere you should take an aspirin a day, it keeps the blood thin.

Please, if our blood were any thinner, we'd evaporate.

What is that supposed to mean?

Is that some sort of insult, we're thin-blooded?

Mom, no, it was a joke.

I'm more thin-blooded than any of us, probably.

Are you seeing anyone?

No.

Well, why not?

Sex is an important and healthy part of life.

It's nothing to be ashamed of.

Yes, I know that.

Unfortunately, I'm not having any right now.

What happened to that cop?

The black man.

He met someone else.

Thank you.

You don't have any free time tomorrow?

( Brenda ) I don't think so.

I'd really like to see you.

I have three shiatsu appointments.

You're the one that wanted me to get on with my life.

Well, you can still come Sunday night for dinner, right?

Even if just for the entertainment value.

It's bound to be a freak-fest.

I think so.

Maybe.

I miss you.

You just saw me.

I know, I just...

I would really like to be with you at this moment in time.

Right now.

I'll see you soon.

Sunday, okay?

I love you.

You, too.

Hey, Rico.

Hey, boss man, I got a favor to ask you.

Okay.

Could you please drop her off at the crematorium for me tonight?

Uh...

C'mon, man.

Vanessa's just a bit overwhelmed at home.

Julio's got a cold, and Augusto hasn't slept through the night for like, a month.

No, no, I can't.

I'm sorry, Rico, but I can't.

I just can't.

Okay.

Well, can you at least help me put her inside the box?

Sure.

So, a cardboard box, huh?

Classy.

Hey, she obviously didn't think her life was worth anything, so, it makes sense to me.

On three.

One, two, three.

It's kinda sad.

No, it's not.

She threw her f*cking life away.

That's not sad, it's pathetic.

We tend to forget how many gifts god has given each and every one of us.

Because our lives are so filled with distractions.

Crowded with messages competing for our attention, encouraging us to be unhappy with our lives.

If only we looked younger, had perfect skin, zero body fat.

The truth of the matter is...

God loves us just the way we are.

Some people said, "congratulations, you've really shaken things up," whatever.

But most people in the congregation wouldn't even make eye contact with me after that, so...

Now I'm back at Saint Stephen's.

So, how are you guys?

Good, we're good.

We just got back from a weekend in San Diego.

It was spectacular.

Yeah, we went para-sailing.

Keith won't admit it, but he was scared to death.

I was not scared.

I might've had a little rush of adrenaline, but, hey, that's the point, right?

I'm gonna have him hang-gliding by the end of the year if it kills me.

In your dreams, fool.

I am not breaking every bone in my body just to impress you.

Seven years I've been hang-gliding and I never broke anything.

You're just lucky.

Don't I know it.

( Male announcer ) Ladies and gentlemen!

Only one of these men will be crowned "Mr. Gay black America".

Did I tell you I'm moving?

Where?

Same building.

A bigger place opened up, we've been wanting to get a dog.

Great!

Do I seem more tense than usual?

You're not supposed to talk, remember?

It takes us both out of it.

The only conversation is between your body...

And my hands.

Yeah, well, correct me if I'm wrong, but we're on my dime here.

I've discovered one of the worst things about selling three million books...

Is constantly feeling like I have to apologize for it.

You know?

It's like, oh, I make a ton of money, so, I must be part of the problem.

Yes.

Yes, what?

You do seem more tense than usual.

I'm not responsible for cancer, I'm not responsible for world hunger.

What if I'm just happy, and that's my contribution to the world?

You know?

I'm thinking of pitching a book... ah!

To my publisher, sort of a cultural history, tracing the how and the why and when...

It became such a sin to be happy.

Drop.

Who knows?

It might help some of those poor sad fucks who are incapable of experiencing joy.

Get out of my house.

Excuse me?

Get the f*ck out of my house!

What is wrong with you?

You don't have one shred of respect for me or what I do.

I'm just another f*cking servant who's supposed to listen to your bullshit and pretend like I don't think you're the stupid, assh*le windbag that you are.

You crazy bitch, I'm paying you for a shiatsu, and I intend to get a shiatsu.

I don't need your f*cking money!

I do not allow people to treat me like this.

Yeah?

Well, if you don't get out of my f*cking house right now I'll call "the L.A. times" and I'll tell them about the lipo scars on your ass.

Right now.

Get out, get out, get out, get out!

( Door slamming )

Ugh!

So, this is where the magic happens.

Yeah, this is it.

What's that smell?

Disinfectant, burnt coffee, embalming fluid.

Yum.

"For the velvety look and feel of actual living tissue."

No f*cking way.

Oh, you do not even want to know.

They have these plastic like, screws, only bigger, that they like, stick into people's orifices.

So stuff won't spill out.

That's some kind of f*cked up.

Yeah, welcome to my world.

So, this is where my brother was.

Oh, Jesus, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought you down here.

Hey, I'm the one who asked to see it.

Come here.

What?

You're the first guy I've ever brought home to meet my family and...

I feel weird, you know?

I feel like, nervous.

Don't worry.

I will be on my best behavior.

Okay?

C'mon.

( Orchestra music playing )

Your mother is a good woman.

Yes, we're aware of that.

David, give him a break.

I'm sorry, you'll have to excuse my brother.

He's been majorly cranky ever since he stopped getting laid.

How old you are?

31.

Ah, 31, good.

I had a son, he would be a little bit older than you.

He was student...

Of medicine.

( Nate ) Hey.

Look who's here.

Hello.

Hi.

Hi.

Nikolai.

Gabriel Dimas.

I've got major cotton mouth.

Who wants to say grace?

I will say grace.

The poor shall eat and be filled, and those that seek the lord shall praise him, their hearts will live forever and ever.

Glory be to the father, and the son, and the holy spirit, both now and forever and unto the ages of ages.

Amen.

Amen.

Lord, have mercy.

Lord, have mercy.

Lord, have mercy.

Lord, bless.

Oh, lord Jesus Christ, son of god, for the sake of the prayers of thy most pure mother and all the saints, have mercy on us.

Amen.

Amen.

Nikolai, you are so beautiful.

Thank you.

You're such a beautiful person, there is this total light coming out of you.

Well, that's...

A very unusual compliment, Nate.

Your brother is like, high.

I know, look at his eyes.

Nate, are you alright?

Oh, I am more than alright.

I haven't felt this good in...

I don't even know how long it's been.

Yes, yes, yes!

Do you know how long it's been since I've heard you do that?

What?

Remember when we were first going out and you used to laugh all the time?

I miss that.

Your laughter's like music.

What? Nate.

You're high.

No, I'm not.

Am I?

Look at the light.

Oh, my god, I am high.

I love the little...

Like, halos.


What is he high on?

I wouldn't know.

I am so not hungry.

Well, I think this went pretty good tonight, yeah?

What are you talking about?

It was awkward and embarrassing.

One of my sons is high on dr*gs.

What am I supposed to do about that?

Should I intervene?

Join a support group?

He just seems happy.

We're going to the movies.

Goodnight, Mrs. Fisher.

Thank you for dinner.

What movie?

We haven't decided yet.

But we'll be back late.

Mom, you said yourself, we're all adults.

We'll be back late.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

Goodnight.

It's all about flowing.

It flows up, it flows down and then sometimes, things stop it from flowing, and you stay and it's like, you just kind of move in a little pool.

You know?

Like you're in a little eddy.

And that's...

What it all comes down to is...

Everything, everything in my life, everything, this thing, this thing in my head, it's all about flow.

( Exhaling )

Flow?

Uh-huh.

Oh, my god, oh, my god, that was so totally you.

That was just so totally David.

I love you.

Okay, I'm outta here.

No, you have to take him with you.

I hope I didn't do anything to f*ck you up when we were kids.

Not when he's like this.

Did you know I taught David how to masturbate?

No, I didn't, and you know what, Nate?

That's fascinating, but I have to go.

No, no, no, just wait a sec.

I just want to say goodbye, come here.

Oh, god!

I love you so f*cking much.

You're so f*cking high.

But how did I get that way?

You don't just get high out of nowhere.

You have to take dr*gs, I didn't take anything.

Did you take any aspirin?

Yeah.

I think there may have been a stray tab of ecstasy in the aspirin bottle in the kitchen cabinet.

Oh, dear, call me when you crash.

No, call me after you've crashed.

You know what, call me next week.

I hope you like her.

It's important to me that you like her.

I do like her.

'Cause you're the only brother I have.

Time to kiss your sweet ass goodbye, cupcake.

Yeah, slice her up!

That was hostile.

( Screaming )

Isn't that the girl that you guys are burying?

She's hot.

She's hot and dead.

( Chopping )

This calls for someone with experience.

Someone who knows her way around Griffith park.

Well, that's me!

In the daytime!

If god gave me the ingredients and told me to make a woman, I'd make her just like my wife.

( Screaming )

They lost no time in tucking into the wonderful meal Boris had prepared for them.

And then, there was a dessert.

Hey, I guess Boris knows I always like to have lettuce for dessert, don't you, Boris?

I hope the meal was satisfactory.

( Female laughing )

( Female on TV ) Oh, it was delightful, Boris.

You're a wonderful cook.

( Male on TV ) It was nothing, Martha, straight out of the cookbook.

( Other male on TV ) It was yummy, Boris, I couldn't eat another thing.

Yeah, it's not bad for a first effort, hey?

( Groaning )

f*ck.

Where's all your old junk? Where are your tools?

( Music playing )

( Female laughing )

( Music playing louder )

Buddy boy!

( Laughing )

C'mon, we saved a place for you.

Chinese checkers.

I always hated this game.

That's because you never played it for money.

Nate, I want you to meet a couple of friends of mine.

This...

Well, this is the man.

Death.

The grim reaper.

Cigar?

Uh, no, thanks.

Good for you, baby.

That stuff is nasty.

And this, well, this is...

My partner.

Ooh, that sounds so professional, I love it.

Life.

Shut up.

Oh, yeah.

It's a whole yin-Yang thing.

You're telling me you two are in business together?

Honey, me and him are in all kinds of sh*t together.

Let's just say it's a mutually beneficial...

Arrangement.

It's your turn.

Uh...

Shouldn't I wait for you to start a new game?

This game ain't never gonna end.

You're either in the game or you're out of it.

On or off the bus, if you'd prefer.

Alright, I'm in.

You gotta put something in the kitty, son.

What are you betting?

( Together ) Everything.

Alright.

I'll bet everything, whatever!

Oh, woo-hoo, I'm shaking.

Hey, buddy boy, no, no.

You don't want to get this guy mad, believe me.

Oh, I don't get mad.

I have people who do it for me.

( Laughing )

( Growling )

Show-off.

But that always gets me going.

You wanna f*ck me, puppethead?

( Growling )

Mama.

Yeah, baby.

That's it.

Go to town, big daddy.

( Various animal sounds )

Big cosmic mystery.

Right here, right in front of you.

Can't say your old man never took you any place interesting.

Yeah, but I'm high.

I know I'm high.

All that lives, lives forever.

Only the shell, the perishable passes away.

( Grim reaper ) Oh f*ck, yeah!

The spirit is without end, eternal, deathless.

( Male on TV ) I'll take this over here, put it on like so.

( Female on TV ) Look at that, folks, look at that for a holiday dinner.

If we had some mint jelly...

That would be fabulous.

Unbelievable!

Do all I get to do is smell it?

Can we, can we?

Oh, smell this, isn't that wonderful?

Oh, boy.

( Phone ringing )

( Male ) Hello?

Oh, no, did I wake you?

David?

Yeah, you did.

What's up?

I just wanted to thank you for inviting me out with you and Eddie yesterday, after church.

Yeah, okay.

And to tell you that it's really important to me that we've remained friends, and...

If you'd ever like to do something, you know, just the two of us, well, I'd really like that.

Look, David.

I'm happy that we're friends, but I'm in a relationship.

A good one.

I know.

You and me, it ain't happening.

Yeah, I know that.

It's just kind of hard for me to be around you and Eddie together.

Yeah, well, you need to get over that.

Jesus, Keith.

Could you be a little more self-righteous?

Morning, mom.

You're up early.

I've been having trouble sleeping recently.

Not sure why.

Where's Nikolai?

Home.

He didn't stay over?

Of course not.

You know, mom, if you did want for him to stay over, that would be your right.

I know that.

I don't need your permission.

No, you don't, nor do I need yours.

Of course not.

You had a terrible time last night, didn't you?

Kind of.

I did it for you.

Arranged the whole evening.

Why?

Oh, some stupid book told me to.

Well, throw that book away.

I intend to.

Does Nate have a problem with dr*gs now?

Is this something I need to know about?

No, I think he took it by accident.

How can something like that be an accident?

Rebecca Milford's star shone all too briefly.

But, oh, how brightly it shone.

This is really boring.

How very, very brightly indeed.

No, it's hilarious, is what it is.

Gabe, a girl d*ed.

So what?

Everybody dies.

What the hell was ecstasy doing in the aspirin bottle?

Is that Claire's idea of a joke?

I think I might have left it in there.

Well, where did you get it?

You remember the square-dancing guy?

Do you think you could get some more?

I wrote something about Becky that I'd like to share with everyone here.

( Male ) Right on, that's my man.

What are you doing down here?

It was a stupid idea of me to go to a funeral for fun.

Yeah, who tried to tell you that?

Okay, so, you were right.

Are you okay?

I'm fine.

Why do you have to...?!

I'm not a pet!

I'm not your pet!

I'm sorry.

I'm going home.

Angie, you said you guys were all pitching in together to pay for this.

Hey, I paid my 600 bucks and I'm not paying a penny more.

Do you know how rude that girl was to me?

Do you know how this is gonna make me look to Nate and David?

So, go talk to Brody.

He's the one who supposedly can't come up with his share.

Hey.

You're the one who brought this funeral here.

So?

So, maybe you need to come up with the difference.

Maybe you need to get off my case, considering I just gave your wife $500 so she could pay for f*cking diapers!

What are you talking about?

Oh, you heard me.

What the f*ck are you talking about?

She asked me for it.

( Spanish )

What are you doing?

This way...

She'll always be a part of us.

You f*cking moron.

You're all f*cking morons.

You're all such incredibly stupid losers.

Whoa.

Chill.

You people are f*cking disgusting.

Who the hell are you?

f*cking bunch of junkies!

Claire, this is not cool.

Did you see what these people are f*cking doing?

Hey, I know they are, okay?

But this is our business, these are our clients.

This is their funeral, they can do whatever they want.

Yeah, well, we'll see you back here real soon, and they'll be snorting you next time.

"All that lives, lives forever."

"Only the shell, the perishable, passes away.

"The spirit is...

( Together ) Without end, eternal, deathless."

Yeah, it's the bhagavad-gita.

Really?

Yeah.

Well, I've never read it.

You read it at my house.

I don't think so.

Don't you remember?

And I went on and on and on about the Peter Brook production of The Mahabarata in London?

Hmm?

But it felt so profound.

And now, you're telling it me it was just recycled crap from my brain?

From your drug-addled brain.

( Phone ringing )

Hello?

So, were you just not going to tell me or did you just forget?

Forget what?

A certain test you took recently.

They posted the results today.

Congratulations, Mr. Funeral director.

You gotta be sh1tting me.

I'm looking at your name, plain as day.

Nathaniel Samuel Fisher Jr.

I had totally forgotten about that.

I'm proud of you, Nate.

Thanks.

I'll see you later.

Where are you going?

I have a client at 8:30.

That's a little late, isn't it?

No, it's not that late.

Can I come over later?

Not tonight, okay?

I'm having enough trouble just being with myself right now.

I'm sorry, it's not you.

It's me.

I'm f*cked up.

You can't fix it.

You're in the game now, buddy boy.

Whether you like it or not.
