Pluto can't help himself. Adopting the roles of various people of different ages, statuses, and personalities, Paul "Pluto" Strauss spends his daily life interfering with the lives of strangers. Dealing with his father's recent suicide, he uses his endless time and countless money to escape his unhappy reality in pursuit of something a little more entertaining. While he's not harassing people he's never met, he spends the rest of his time inconveniencing (and often embarrassing) those closest to him. It is not until Olivia, a girl from his past, reenters his life that Pluto must acknowledge the weight of his lies and the consequences they bring.

Short filmTranscript
00:00:00of a man who had a true dedication I'm honored still to remember Ted Strauss and commemorate his generosity, strength, and loyalty to his family and friends
00:00:25We lost him tragically
00:00:26Excuse me!
00:00:27Get me a water, sugar!
00:00:29But he will never be forgotten
00:00:31As we rename East Wing Ballroom

00:00:40Which guy?
00:00:41That guy! That old guy over there with the shakes!
00:00:43Oh, the guy who invented the wheel?
00:00:47I think he asked me to go to a Civil War reenactment later
00:00:49Are you kidding me?
00:00:50Are you serious?
00:00:51Yeah, I'm pretty excited about it
00:00:53Did you see him use vegetables?
00:00:56Yo, fuck Mr. Ragoon! He can get his own water
00:01:02Hey, excuse me, get out of the way

00:03:21It was mortifying, doctor
00:03:23Yes, I can imagine
00:03:25Well, I couldn't have...
00:03:27He's been doing this for some time but never in front of me
00:03:30And that's why you called me now?
00:03:32He crossed a line
00:03:34These are my friends
00:03:36These were my husband's friends
00:03:38I understand he passed away
00:03:40Three years ago
00:03:42Drowned himself
00:03:44It was terrible
00:03:46But it's time to move on
00:03:49on. Were he and Paul close? No, they never got along. No one was really close to that
00:03:55man, not even me. Look, I don't know what this is all about. I just need you to
00:04:01make sure it doesn't happen again. At least not near my club. Of course, I'll do
00:04:06everything I can. Thank you, doctor.
00:04:12I understand that's how you feel, but I... Yes, but if I could just give you my
00:04:18opinion. Yeah, yeah, okay. Jen and Rob are gonna have a kid. She's pregnant. I just thought she was
00:04:33pregnant this whole time. She's totally pregnant. Totally.
00:04:38No, I'm not going there. I'm not going there. No, I'll go there. Mr. Shouse, you
00:04:49can go on in. Yeah, I'm still at work. No, it doesn't matter.
00:04:54Hello? Oh, shit. Fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck. I'm sorry. Fuck. You were supposed to... It's fine. Mary? Yes, Dr. Danzig? I thought you said I didn't have any
00:05:19more appointments for the day. I did? You did. I'm sorry, Dr. Danzig. Go home for the day. He is my last patient, correct? What? Go on. I'm sorry, Dr. Danzig. I told you, it's fine. Wow. Fuck. I really
00:05:46shouldn't be doing this. Towel the door. Yeah? Yeah, towel the door. What the hell? Bad day? Something like that. I'm Greg. Pluto.
00:06:15Oh, like the planet? No, like the Disney character. Oh. Yes, like the planet. Oh. Is that short for something? What would it be short for? I don't know. I guess I just never heard of someone being named after a planet before. Well, I wasn't. My name is Paul, and Pluto is the name of a Roman god that a planet was named after. That you go by. Right.
00:06:46I spoke to your mother yesterday. I would love to have a copy of that conversation. Yeah, I didn't expect you to show up. I'm here. Right. So, go ahead, Doc. Fix me. Well, what is it that you think needs fixing? No idea. You're the one who spoke to my mother. She told me about your little incident at the country club. Good times. Yeah, yeah. So you dress up like other people. Sure.
00:07:14You screw with everyone else? Sort of. Well, you lie to them about who you are and where you're from, what you do. It's a little more complicated than that. Well, you're not afraid of getting caught or hurting someone? Well, that's half the fun, Greg.
00:07:28I'm not sure if I'm really stoned or just having trouble understanding. Give me an example of a typical day. Well, it's never the same. It's got to start from somewhere. Okay. I guess I would start with my hands.
00:07:55From there I go wherever my imagination takes me. But it wouldn't be any fun for me if you knew any more than that, Greg. It's mine. It's my drug. It's my addiction. It's the most fun I get to have all day. What's not to love about it? I get to be anyone I want to be. Whatever they would do, I do.
00:08:16You wouldn't believe the people that I've met, the things that I've gotten to see. That would never happen for Paul Strauss. But for Pluto or the people I've become, we get the excitement, the danger, the spontaneity. My life is not monotonous. My day is different every day. Can you say the same?
00:08:46I brought you a sandwich.
00:09:14What kind?
00:09:16I don't remember.
00:09:18You don't remember what kind of sandwich you made for me?
00:09:19I didn't make it.
00:09:21Oh. Who made it?
00:09:23Rosie.
00:09:24Oh. Good.
00:09:27What do you mean, good?
00:09:30She makes a better sandwich.
00:09:31Than who?
00:09:32Than you.
00:09:34You know, you're a real asshole.
00:09:36That's nice, Mother.
00:09:38I hate it when you smoke.
00:09:40I'm sorry to hear that.
00:09:42Didn't you learn anything from your father?
00:09:44Are you done?
00:09:46Claire tells me you're still being rude to Ben.
00:09:51I don't like him.
00:09:52You hate everyone.
00:09:54I don't hate everyone.
00:09:55Name one person you don't hate.
00:09:57Oscar.
00:09:58Oscar's a cat. He doesn't count.
00:10:00I don't hate everyone. Just a lot of people.
00:10:10How are your sessions going?
00:10:12They're fine.
00:10:15Aren't you going to eat that sandwich?
00:10:20I don't even know what kind it is.
00:10:26Well, I gotta run, sweetheart.
00:10:30It's good to see you doing so well.
00:10:37What's in that sandwich?
00:10:38Oh, damn you, Rosie.
00:10:46She even cut the crust.
00:10:48I told you.
00:10:50She's good.
00:10:52Yeah.
00:10:53Yeah, she is.
00:11:04Meet Simon.
00:11:06Simon is sleeping.
00:11:08Simon is almost always sleeping because he suffers from a rare disorder known as Klein-Levin
00:11:13syndrome.
00:11:14Some symptoms include excessive food intake, irritability, disorientation, hallucinations,
00:11:22and an abnormally uninhibited sex drive.
00:11:38Hello?
00:11:41Hey, you're awake.
00:11:43I tried going to an audition this morning.
00:11:45How'd that go?
00:11:46I don't want to talk about it.
00:11:49Where are you going?
00:11:51Out with Claire and her boyfriend.
00:11:53Douchebag.
00:11:54That's the one.
00:11:56He's a very nice boy, Pluto.
00:11:57You think everyone's nice.
00:11:59No, you just hate everyone.
00:12:01That's what my mother said, too.
00:12:04Pick one.
00:12:06Don't scare this guy away.
00:12:07Okay, I'll pick one.
00:12:10This is unhealthy, Pluto.
00:12:12My mother says hi, by the way.
00:12:18Hi.
00:12:21Oh, shit.
00:12:22Give me a second.
00:12:24I told you not to call at this time.
00:12:26I'm sorry.
00:12:27I had to talk to you.
00:12:29This really isn't a good time.
00:12:30If my wife-
00:12:30I don't want to hear about your wife.
00:12:33No, honey.
00:12:34No, did you try the left drawer?
00:12:36No, no, no, no, the other drawer-
00:12:38Hold on, I'll be right there.
00:12:39Look, I really have to go.
00:12:41I need to see you again.
00:12:42I don't know if that's possible.
00:12:43Make it possible.
00:12:44Look, I have to go.
00:12:45Don't call this number again.
00:12:46Wait, I really need to-
00:12:48Who was that?
00:12:49Some lady.
00:12:51You sleep with her?
00:12:52Maybe.
00:12:53She thinks you're married.
00:12:56Maybe.
00:12:57That's real nice, Pluto.
00:12:59What?
00:13:00You're cheating.
00:13:00On who?
00:13:01I don't have a wife.
00:13:02But she thinks you do.
00:13:03Right, so really, she is the cheater.
00:13:06Is she married?
00:13:08Not that I know of.
00:13:09Fuck, I hope not.
00:13:11Seriously, you need to come up with a new hobby.
00:13:14Why?
00:13:14This is so much fun.
00:13:16Plus, I get late sometimes.
00:13:17That does not happen for Pluto.
00:13:19Could, you know.
00:13:20You act like a normal human being and talk to a woman as, um, I don't know, yourself.
00:13:24Nah, I gave that up a long time ago.
00:13:26Probably around the same time that Olivia Whitfield rejected me.
00:13:29Again with this girl.
00:13:31Olivia Whitfield.
00:13:36Oh, you remember her.
00:13:39From the third grade to the sixth grade, we were in love.
00:13:43We probably would have been together forever if her father didn't get a job across the
00:13:48country and move her away from me.
00:13:50That is not how it happened at all.
00:13:54Okay, I was not that gay.
00:13:56A little less gay.
00:13:57That's not how it happened at all.
00:14:01That's better.
00:14:03We both know she had a crush on me.
00:14:05She rejected you.
00:14:08Many times.
00:14:10You cried on my shoulder.
00:14:11It's okay, little buddy.
00:14:28You want to come along tonight?
00:14:30So you make Claire's boyfriend cry again, I'll pass.
00:14:33It's great.
00:14:35Really?
00:14:36Really, really.
00:14:37Do you like the style?
00:14:38I don't know, I'm nervous about the style.
00:14:40It's different, you know?
00:14:41The style's great, baby.
00:14:43You don't think it's different?
00:14:44It's very different.
00:14:45Yeah, but like, great different, right?
00:14:47Not like, this sucks different?
00:14:49Like, awesome different.
00:14:53Awesome different.
00:14:54I'm just so glad it's done.
00:14:55Totally.
00:14:57Do you think your brother might do it?
00:14:58What?
00:14:59I don't know, I think he'd be really great.
00:15:01I know he probably hasn't acted in an actual play since like, childhood,
00:15:05but I based a lot of the lead off of him,
00:15:08and I don't know, I think that he would get it more than anybody else.
00:15:12We're thinking of the same person, right?
00:15:14Yeah, you think he'd do it?
00:15:16He doesn't know the first thing about acting, Ben.
00:15:19How is that different?
00:15:20I don't know, I think he'd be really great.
00:15:22He doesn't know the first thing about acting, Ben.
00:15:23How is it any different than what he's doing right now?
00:15:26I don't know.
00:15:27Well, I should be able to at least ask him.
00:15:29I mean, I'm gonna be his brother-in-law eventually.
00:15:33What, am I wrong?
00:15:34No.
00:15:38I mean, I know he hates me.
00:15:41He doesn't hate you, he's like that with everyone.
00:15:44No, Claire, he hates me.
00:15:45Why do you say that?
00:15:47He calls me a douchebag.
00:15:49To my face.
00:15:50Well, maybe he's just joking.
00:15:53Memorial Day weekend?
00:15:54In the park?
00:15:56Remember when he pretended to be retarded?
00:15:57Douchebag, douchebag, douchebag, douchebag, douchebag, douchebag!
00:16:04It's not funny.
00:16:05I got beat up by two middle-aged women.
00:16:08That was really awful, and come to think of it, offensive.
00:16:11Yeah, and not to mention, I don't know, wrong?
00:16:15Well, at least he paid for the hospital bills.
00:16:16No, your family paid for them.
00:16:18They did.
00:16:18He didn't pay for anything.
00:16:21Just because you have money doesn't mean you can do whatever you want.
00:16:23No, I know.
00:16:24I just don't know what he has against me.
00:16:26I'm always so nice to him.
00:16:27I know, you're so good, baby.
00:16:29Really?
00:16:30Really, really.
00:16:31Okay, I love you.
00:16:33I love you, too.
00:16:35I just really hope he's not retarded again tonight.
00:16:37Douchebag, douchebag, douchebag, douchebag, douchebag, douchebag!
00:16:43Yeah, me too.
00:16:45Let proud poets preach, let lost lovers lie,
00:16:48just let me reside in your dreams tonight.
00:17:11What did you just tell that kid?
00:17:12That I'm going to sign his band to my music agency.
00:17:16But you don't have a music agency.
00:17:19Yes, Ben, that's right.
00:17:21I do not actually have a music agency.
00:17:24Why did you do that?
00:17:25I'm just having a little fun.
00:17:26At what expense?
00:17:27I didn't hurt anyone.
00:17:28Those kids think that something really great just happened to them.
00:17:31Why is that a bad thing?
00:17:33Because it's a lie, because nothing happened to them.
00:17:35Sure it did.
00:17:36What happened?
00:17:37They're going to be in the same place tomorrow that they are today.
00:17:40Okay, but tonight they'll celebrate.
00:17:42Tonight they will feel great.
00:17:45Yeah, but what about tomorrow?
00:17:47I won't be here tomorrow.
00:17:49I think that's pretty selfish, Bluto.
00:17:51I disagree.
00:17:51How?
00:17:53Well, Ben, it's actually not that hard.
00:17:54All I do is take the previous statement and negate it,
00:17:57and therefore I've not agreed with it.
00:17:59I.e. disagree.
00:18:01Don't be an asshole.
00:18:02That's what mom said too.
00:18:03How can you possibly think that that's not selfish?
00:18:05Well, A, because this has nothing to do with me,
00:18:08and B, because, okay, they're not gaining anything,
00:18:12but they're not losing anything either.
00:18:14Because of me, tonight their night will be a little bit better.
00:18:17That's retarded.
00:18:19That is not a very nice word, Ben.
00:18:21I thought we learned that this summer.
00:18:22Bluto, stop.
00:18:24Why do you hang out with this guy?
00:18:25Paul.
00:18:25Just work out your daddy issues.
00:18:30I gotta go.
00:18:31More people to lie to.
00:18:32No, silly.
00:18:34More people to excite.
00:18:40I told you, he hates me.
00:18:47I told you.
00:19:03Wake up.
00:19:05Wake up, Simon.
00:19:05Wake up.
00:19:06I need your help.
00:19:07I'm sleeping.
00:19:08It's two o'clock in the afternoon, Simon.
00:19:10I need your help.
00:19:11It's a disease, Bluto.
00:19:12If I could wake up, I would.
00:19:14You can.
00:19:14You can for me.
00:19:15Now get up.
00:19:16What is it?
00:19:17I'm going back to sleep.
00:19:19No, no, no, no.
00:19:20Get up.
00:19:20This is important.
00:19:21This is serious.
00:19:23Seventh grade talent show.
00:19:25You begged me for weeks to sing Bosom Buddies from the musical Maine.
00:19:29It's a female duet, Simon.
00:19:31But I did it.
00:19:32I did it because you begged.
00:19:34This is me begging.
00:19:37Okay.
00:19:39Okay.
00:19:41What is it?
00:19:42I saw her today.
00:19:43Who?
00:19:44Olivia.
00:19:45Well, how did you know it was her?
00:19:47She looked exactly the same.
00:19:49Creepy.
00:19:51She's age 15 years, Simon.
00:19:53I just knew it was her.
00:19:55Did you talk to her?
00:19:57Not exactly.
00:19:59Oh my God, you followed her.
00:20:01I just, I walked in the same direction.
00:20:03But she went to the park, to my spot in the park.
00:20:09What are the chances?
00:20:13I'll be here tomorrow.
00:20:14I'm here like every day.
00:20:18Listen, I need to come up with the best person I've ever come up with.
00:20:21The sexiest, most appealing guy you can think of.
00:20:24What?
00:20:25She's not blind, Pluto.
00:20:27I mean, if she saw you, she's going to know who you are.
00:20:30Oh my God.
00:20:32She's not blind, right?
00:20:33No, she didn't see me.
00:20:34I hid.
00:20:35Maybe you're getting a little too excited about this.
00:20:38She might recognize you when she does see you.
00:20:40And what if she has a boyfriend?
00:20:42I'll cross that bridge when I get there.
00:20:44Okay, well, let's say you do impress this girl.
00:20:47Then what?
00:20:48If she's so special, wouldn't you want to impress her as yourself?
00:20:51What's impressive about me?
00:20:53I'm just like everybody else, okay?
00:20:55Everyone else isn't impressive.
00:20:57I need to be better than everyone else.
00:21:00What do women like?
00:21:01Their boyfriends?
00:21:02You don't know if she has a boyfriend.
00:21:04Pluto.
00:21:05Please.
00:21:07I love a cute European guy.
00:21:09Okay, hey, yeah, yeah, that's good.
00:21:12What languages have you studied?
00:21:13My Latin is impeccable.
00:21:15Pluto.
00:21:15Any ideas?
00:21:18I dated a French guy before.
00:21:20He was adorable.
00:21:22Oh, yeah?
00:21:23Oh my God, yes.
00:21:25So hot.
00:21:26I mean, I couldn't tell you half the shit he said to me, but it didn't matter.
00:21:30There's just something about that cute little accent.
00:21:34I should really call him.
00:21:35What was his name?
00:21:38Sebastian.
00:21:39Oh, I like that.
00:21:41Are you gonna see this girl again?
00:21:43Definitely.
00:21:44Well, tell her I said, hey, girl.
00:21:45I'm gonna go practice this accent.
00:21:47Great, fine, whatever.
00:21:48Let me know how it works out.
00:21:52And when I get up, I'm gonna find that tape from the talent show and put it on YouTube.
00:21:56I'll kill you.
00:21:58We'll always be bosom buddies.
00:22:02Friends, sisters, and pals.
00:22:06We'll always be.
00:22:14Meredith.
00:22:29She didn't show up.
00:22:31I was sure she would.
00:22:32I wasn't going back.
00:22:34That was it.
00:22:34She lost her chance.
00:22:35Had you planned on meeting?
00:22:36No, no, we never actually talked about it or anything.
00:22:39But, you know, I expected her there.
00:22:41And then I got angry and sad and I thought about doing some really awful things.
00:22:45A five, six, seven, eight.
00:22:53When I ask for a right batma and a double, I better get a right batma and a double.
00:22:58What is this, people?
00:22:59Community theater?
00:23:00Now, as your guidance counselor, I would recommend taking my advice.
00:23:07Have you considered Clown College?
00:23:10Wait, you robbed someone?
00:23:12No, Greg, I didn't do any of those things.
00:23:14What kind of person do you think I am?
00:23:16I'm sorry.
00:23:17It's all right.
00:23:17No, that was so rude of me.
00:23:18I really should have done that.
00:23:19I appreciate the concern.
00:23:21And the wallet saves us a lot of time.
00:23:22Yeah, having to call and cancel the credit cards.
00:23:24And getting a new license at the DMV is the worst.
00:23:27The worst.
00:23:28I don't even think I have much money in here.
00:23:30Nope, six dollars.
00:23:31Look at that.
00:23:32Six bucks.
00:23:32A waste of everyone's time in the end.
00:23:34I don't even have a gun.
00:23:36Oh, well, nice to have met you guys.
00:23:38Yeah, you too.
00:23:39Hey, good luck with Olivia.
00:23:40Yeah, I hope she shows up the next time you go looking for her.
00:23:42Thanks.
00:23:43You know, I'm really just frustrated.
00:23:44I really...
00:23:45I thought you said you didn't do that.
00:23:47I didn't.
00:23:48I went back to wait for her the next day after all.
00:23:52Excuse me, sir.
00:23:53Could I just take a moment of your time?
00:23:55Hold on.
00:23:56Oh, I'm sorry.
00:23:57Do you not speak English?
00:23:58No, I don't.
00:23:59I'm sorry.
00:23:59I'm sorry.
00:24:00I'm sorry.
00:24:00I'm sorry.
00:24:01I'm sorry.
00:24:01I'm sorry.
00:24:02I'm sorry.
00:24:02I'm sorry.
00:24:03I'm sorry.
00:24:03I'm sorry.
00:24:04I'm sorry.
00:24:04I'm sorry.
00:24:05Oui.
00:24:06Oh, good.
00:24:07Because the first thing you said to me was in French.
00:24:08And that was in French.
00:24:11I'm sorry.
00:24:12Do you speak English?
00:24:13Yes.
00:24:14Oh, good.
00:24:14Oui, oui.
00:24:15Well, could I just take one minute of your time?
00:24:19Can you sit?
00:24:20Sit?
00:24:21I am in no rush.
00:24:22Are you?
00:24:24No, I guess not.
00:24:26So let's sit, please, s'il vous plaît.
00:24:30Hi, I'm Olivia.
00:24:32Sebastian.
00:24:33Oh, what a nice name.
00:24:35Nobody here has nice names like that anymore.
00:24:37I mean, everything's so typical and bland.
00:24:39I was in Europe for a year for study abroad in college.
00:24:43Everyone there had such great names.
00:24:44Did you visit France?
00:24:46Yeah, I was in Paris for like a week.
00:24:48It was amazing.
00:24:49How was your French?
00:24:51Oh, terrible.
00:24:52I can't speak a word of it.
00:24:53Oh, I totally forgot why we were here.
00:24:57I'm with RHM.
00:24:58We're a human rights group.
00:24:59We focus mainly on financially tripled families like me.
00:25:03I am afraid I do not have much money to help you.
00:25:08Oh, no, that's OK.
00:25:09Any compensation can help, really.
00:25:11If you just give me your info, I can send you details.
00:25:13You can send in a check of however much you want.
00:25:15And if you're just being nice to me, that's OK, too.
00:25:20But it's really a great program to learn about.
00:25:24Why don't you just give me your info and you can decide for yourself.
00:25:29How about this?
00:25:31How about we sit right here and you tell me everything that I need to know?
00:25:39Well, I kind of have to go around a little more.
00:25:42I'm supposed to cover this whole area by a certain hour.
00:25:48But I'll be here tomorrow.
00:25:50Will you be around?
00:25:51I will be right here.
00:25:55You know, something about you looks so familiar.
00:25:57I don't know, something about your face.
00:25:59You remind me of someone or something.
00:26:02Do you get that a lot?
00:26:04Not usually.
00:26:05Maybe we met in Paris.
00:26:07Maybe it's destiny.
00:26:08Whoa, I don't know about that.
00:26:10Am I using the wrong word?
00:26:14No, it's just a little dramatic.
00:26:23Oh, no, no, I hate the taste.
00:26:25But, you know, you go ahead.
00:26:27Um, I'll see you tomorrow, Sebastian.
00:26:30Au revoir, Olivia.
00:26:32Au revoir.
00:26:38Oh, my God.
00:26:49Well, hello there, sir.
00:26:50My name is Steve.
00:26:51I'm going to go right ahead and be your server today, okay?
00:26:54We're going to kick off with the specials.
00:26:55We have the soup of the day, the tomato bisque.
00:26:57Our fish of the day is the black and salmon.
00:26:59Yeah, I'm not going to be ordering any of that shit.
00:27:00Can you just go get me a coffee?
00:27:02Black, thanks.
00:27:02I'm going to be meeting someone any minute.
00:27:05Oh, okay.
00:27:06Yeah, I'll get that while you're waiting.
00:27:08Thanks.
00:27:14Excuse me, sir.
00:27:16Would you mind if I joined you for a few moments?
00:27:20Yeah, I guess for a minute.
00:27:22Thank you, thank you.
00:27:23I just, I hate sitting alone.
00:27:28Why, hello there, madam.
00:27:30How are you today?
00:27:30I'm fine, thank you.
00:27:32Coffee, sir.
00:27:32Would you like to eat today's specials?
00:27:34No, no, no.
00:27:34She's not going to eat specials.
00:27:35Yes, I would love to.
00:27:37Oh, would you?
00:27:38That's great.
00:27:39All right, then.
00:27:40Today, we have the soup of the day, the tomato bisque.
00:27:42Very good soup.
00:27:43Very good.
00:27:44Banging.
00:27:44Bisque.
00:27:45Banging.
00:27:46Okay.
00:27:46The fish of the day is the black and salmon.
00:27:48We went right ahead and blackened that up for you.
00:27:51And that's going to about conclude the specials for today.
00:27:54All right?
00:27:58That was a wonderful presentation.
00:28:03I will have a glass of water.
00:28:06Of course.
00:28:07This is my grandson, Stuart.
00:28:12Isn't he adorable?
00:28:13No, he's, he's, he's great.
00:28:16Yes, he's adorable.
00:28:17Right?
00:28:18Look, isn't he?
00:28:21May I ask you something?
00:28:25Yes.
00:28:25Yes.
00:28:26Yes.
00:28:26Yes.
00:28:27Yes.
00:28:27Yes.
00:28:28Yes.
00:28:28Yes.
00:28:29Yes.
00:28:29Yes.
00:28:30Yes.
00:28:30Yes.
00:28:31Yes.
00:28:31Yes.
00:28:32Yes.
00:28:32Yes.
00:28:32Yes.
00:28:33Yes.
00:28:34Yes.
00:28:34Yes.
00:28:34Yes.
00:28:35Yes.
00:28:36Yes.
00:28:36Yes.
00:28:37Sure.
00:28:38A sweet old lady comes and asks you for some company and you won't even give her the time
00:28:44of day.
00:28:45Why is that?
00:28:46I'm sorry.
00:28:47I'm just, I'm waiting here for someone and it's really important.
00:28:49This is why you don't deserve my sister.
00:28:52What?
00:28:53You heard me, you little shit.
00:28:56Pluto?
00:28:57You see, she can do a lot better than you.
00:29:00To be frank, I fucking hate you.
00:29:05I think that you are a real douchebag, Ben.
00:29:10Who the fuck are you?
00:29:11You're dressed up like an old woman.
00:29:13You're sick, man.
00:29:14Saying pretty awful things to an old lady in a public place.
00:29:17You are not a fucking old lady.
00:29:20Hey, everyone, look at this asshole.
00:29:22This is not an old lady.
00:29:24This is a man dressed up in an old lady suit.
00:29:27I can't believe how retarded I am.
00:29:29You're clearly wearing a mask.
00:29:30Ben, is everything okay?
00:29:32Yes, Stephen.
00:29:33Yes, yes.
00:29:34He's my son.
00:29:35He's just on a short break from the Levinson Institute.
00:29:38Down the road.
00:29:40Take it easy, sir.
00:29:41He's lying to you.
00:29:43If you don't calm down, I'm gonna have to go right ahead and ask you to leave.
00:29:45Oh, eat me, Steve.
00:29:48Oh, my heavens, Stephen.
00:29:49Stephen, dear, thank you.
00:29:50Thank you for your help.
00:29:52I have a very kind of you.
00:29:53Very kind.
00:30:05My sister told me that you wanted to ask me to be in your play.
00:30:09Ben, I wouldn't be in your fucking play if Shakespeare himself helped you write it.
00:30:16Douchebag.
00:30:24I used to work at a cafe last summer.
00:30:44God, it was so awful.
00:30:46Why?
00:30:48I don't know.
00:30:48Shitty pay, shitty boss.
00:30:50You know, I remember running home literally every time I left work.
00:30:56I mean, not the whole way.
00:30:57I would walk because it's pretty close.
00:30:59But as soon as I got around the corner to my house, I would just take off.
00:31:04Like when you have to go to the bathroom?
00:31:07Is that close to the toilet?
00:31:09Yeah, exactly.
00:31:11Oh, that was my favorite part of the day.
00:31:13Just the running.
00:31:14I felt like a little kid again, you know?
00:31:17I mean, how often is it that you see grown adults running?
00:31:20A lot of times.
00:31:22Okay, that doesn't count.
00:31:25No, it's usually when it's something bad or like something's wrong.
00:31:29But that's not how it was at all.
00:31:35Ask me something.
00:31:36Ask me anything.
00:31:39Anything?
00:31:39Yeah, go for it.
00:31:45What do you want to do with your life?
00:31:47That's a loaded question.
00:31:50You said anything.
00:31:52It seems like an important thing to know about the person.
00:31:57Well, I guess I don't really know.
00:32:01Me either.
00:32:02Really?
00:32:04Really, really.
00:32:05Well, do you think that's a bad thing?
00:32:08I think it is what it is.
00:32:12But at least you have something that you are passionate about.
00:32:15Something that you believe in.
00:32:18I guess.
00:32:19I mean, honestly, it's just something to help pass the time.
00:32:22My heart's not in it.
00:32:24I mean, I feel good.
00:32:24I'm legitimately helping people.
00:32:26But I don't know.
00:32:28It's not enough.
00:32:29I'm lonely here, you know?
00:32:32And you wouldn't think it would be in this city, but it is.
00:32:35And it's probably why I'm babbling to a complete stranger.
00:32:38Hey, not complete stranger.
00:32:41New friend.
00:32:43You know this can only end badly, right?
00:32:45Yeah, but it'll be a great story.
00:32:47But you came in here so excited, so energetic.
00:32:50You know, it's great to hear someone talk about another person like that.
00:32:54It's infectious.
00:32:55So now I'm living vicariously through you, Pluto.
00:32:59Why do you want to screw this up?
00:33:02Well, it's too late now, don't you think?
00:33:03No, I don't.
00:33:04I think if you told her now, maybe you could pass it off as a joke
00:33:07of one or two time thing, you know?
00:33:09Kind of weird, sure.
00:33:11But women love to laugh.
00:33:13At least most women do.
00:33:16It'll give her a good laugh.
00:33:18No, she wouldn't buy that.
00:33:20I'll just pretend as long as I can.
00:33:22Are you afraid of having something real?
00:33:24What?
00:33:25Something real between two people.
00:33:28No.
00:33:29You go around hiding behind these people you make up, hmm?
00:33:33You know, why is it fair for you to ask someone to care for someone
00:33:35who doesn't even care about himself?
00:33:37Are you married, Greg?
00:33:38Uh, yeah.
00:33:41Yes, I am.
00:33:42And how's that work out for you?
00:33:44It's fine.
00:33:47Why do you ask?
00:33:48Well, the first time I came in here, you were getting high in your office.
00:33:53You don't really strike me as the pothead type,
00:33:55so I figure something must be stressing you out.
00:33:58Not getting laid?
00:34:00Not really any of your business, Paul.
00:34:02Pluto.
00:34:02Right, Pluto.
00:34:04Why did you get so defensive when I asked you a question?
00:34:06Why'd you get so defensive when I brought up your wife?
00:34:08That's enough talk about my wife.
00:34:10Okay.
00:34:12I'm sorry, you don't need to get all Good Will Hunting on me.
00:34:15It's fine.
00:34:21So, um, so I've been dreaming in cartoon.
00:34:27What?
00:34:27Yeah, it's weird, I know.
00:34:30Actually, it sounds kind of cool.
00:34:32Are you the cartoon, or is the entire dream a cartoon?
00:34:35The whole thing.
00:34:36I'm not always me, too.
00:34:37I mean, I'm always there, but it's weird.
00:34:40I don't even really remember it often, but last night's was pretty vivid.
00:34:44Oh yeah?
00:34:45Yeah, kind of depressing, really.
00:34:47You see, there was no color.
00:34:49It was all in black and white.
00:34:50And I was this little mouse,
00:34:52living in one of those semicircle holes in a family's kitchen
00:34:54that you only actually see in cartoons.
00:34:57And all around the room, there were these random vases and containers.
00:35:00And every so often, this guy would drop something inside the containers.
00:35:04But I could never see his face.
00:35:05It was always covered like, um, like that Magritte painting with the apple.
00:35:09But the thing that he dropped inside, I know that I want it.
00:35:13I need it.
00:35:15So I decide to climb to the tallest and highest one of these containers,
00:35:18because I'm gonna get it.
00:35:20But when I finally get to the top, I fall in.
00:35:23Suddenly, I'm surrounded by coins, and every time I try to get out,
00:35:26the man with the covered face hits me on top of the head with another one.
00:35:30So I lay there, alone.
00:35:34Have you ever died in a dream, Greg?
00:35:36It's an awful thing.
00:35:38That's what this felt like.
00:35:42Suddenly, I'm in this grocery store,
00:35:44and the man with the covered face is counting his change
00:35:46in one of those coin counting machines.
00:35:48And I fall out.
00:35:50A dead mouse in a pool of money.
00:35:56And then I woke up.
00:35:57But, um, I don't take dreams too seriously.
00:36:00Well, what do you think it means?
00:36:04Nothing.
00:36:05I think it's a random assortment of ideas and thoughts
00:36:07meshed together in my head.
00:36:08Well, you brought it up for a reason.
00:36:15Poor mouse never even had a chance.
00:36:18I'm sorry, Mrs. Danzing.
00:36:20I...
00:36:21Oh, okay.
00:36:23Um...
00:36:24No, I...
00:36:26Mm-hmm.
00:36:28There's no need to curse, Mrs. Danzing.
00:36:32I'm gonna transfer you right now.
00:36:34Oh, that fool.
00:36:38Mary was, um...
00:36:39Was that Dr. Danzing's wife?
00:36:42I don't...
00:36:43I don't really think I'm supposed to share
00:36:45that sort of information.
00:36:47Oh, Mary, it's not a big deal.
00:36:48We'll keep it between us.
00:36:52Well, yeah.
00:36:52Yeah, that was her.
00:36:54Yeah.
00:36:55And she's...
00:36:55She's...
00:36:56She's a bitch.
00:36:57She's a huge bitch.
00:37:00You know, she's just...
00:37:01She...
00:37:01You look at her, and you can tell she's a mean person.
00:37:03She probably stabs her friends in the back, right?
00:37:05One of those bitches.
00:37:06You know what I'm talking about, right?
00:37:09She's one of those bitches that all the other bitches love to talk about,
00:37:12but then when she comes around, they clam up
00:37:13because they only wish they could be as bitchy as she is.
00:37:17She probably has some big bitch trophy at home that reads,
00:37:19I'm the world's biggest bitch.
00:37:20And if you argue with me, or blink, or breathe, or do anything,
00:37:24I will shove this bitch trophy up your ass!
00:37:26That kind of bitch.
00:37:27Yeah.
00:37:31Are you okay?
00:37:33I'm fine.
00:37:36I have a picture of her.
00:37:39From last Christmas party here.
00:37:42Judge for yourself.
00:37:43Pretty, right?
00:37:45But a huge bitch.
00:37:48Well, that's a coincidence.
00:37:49What is?
00:37:51Oh, no, I can see right here in this picture.
00:37:54What a bitch.
00:37:58How is that a coincidence?
00:38:00I'll see you next week, Mary.
00:38:02Okay, honey.
00:38:03Stupid bitch.
00:38:25Oh, goodbye, my Coney Island baby.
00:38:31Farewell, my own true love.
00:38:33True love, my honey.
00:38:34I'm gonna go away and leave you.
00:38:38Never to see you, Annie.
00:38:40Never gonna see you, Annie.
00:38:42I'm gonna say the part that's very important.
00:38:43You have to be fucking kidding me.
00:38:45Oh, no.
00:38:46Pluto!
00:38:46No.
00:38:50Come on, come on, come on.
00:38:51Let's go.
00:38:53Let's go.
00:38:54Goodbye, my Coney Island.
00:38:55Goodbye, my Coney Island.
00:38:57Goodbye, my Coney Island.
00:38:59Goodbye, my Coney Island.
00:39:05I don't suppose you want to smoke?
00:39:07Your mother is pretty pissed off.
00:39:09Okay.
00:39:10Do you not care at all?
00:39:11I didn't do anything wrong.
00:39:13This isn't normal, Pluto.
00:39:14Do you realize that?
00:39:15What you're doing is not something that people do every day.
00:39:18It is out of the ordinary.
00:39:20It is abnormal.
00:39:21And your mom is really upset.
00:39:24She doesn't like this at all.
00:39:25You know she could cut off your funds.
00:39:27No, she can't.
00:39:28Yes, she can.
00:39:28Your father's money is in her name.
00:39:30We just talked about it.
00:39:31I don't see what the big deal is.
00:39:32Because it's not healthy, Pluto.
00:39:34You can't lie to people the way you do.
00:39:38What would you do?
00:39:39What?
00:39:40What would you do if you had no more money?
00:39:42You couldn't afford that expensive apartment of yours.
00:39:44You know, you'd have to get a job.
00:39:47You'd have to pay for your rent, your health insurance, your cell phone bill.
00:39:50You need to buy food.
00:39:51Okay, I got it.
00:39:59Look, I'm going to prescribe you something.
00:40:02I don't need it.
00:40:03It's benzodiazepine, a generic form of Xanax.
00:40:07It's often used to treat people with tension, anxiety, and depression.
00:40:13I'm not crazy.
00:40:16It's pretty strong.
00:40:18People get hooked on it pretty easily, so only take it when you feel like doing what you do.
00:40:23Is this because I brought up your wife?
00:40:24Look, man, I meant no harm, okay?
00:40:26I can't force you to take this, but it's my medical recommendation.
00:40:34I'm disappointed in you, Greg.
00:40:48What the hell, man?
00:40:55Do you need some cash?
00:40:59Put it up.
00:41:01I'm sleeping.
00:41:02What else is new?
00:41:05What's your problem?
00:41:07We're back.
00:41:11What did I fucking say?
00:41:13I'm sorry.
00:41:14Do you have problems following simple directions?
00:41:16I said one fucking person.
00:41:18I couldn't leave him in my parents' house alone.
00:41:20I'm sorry.
00:41:20For five fucking minutes, he couldn't be alone.
00:41:22His mom doesn't like me, man.
00:41:24I wonder why.
00:41:25What's your problem?
00:41:26You're my fucking problem, asshole.
00:41:28Do you want this shit or not?
00:41:29Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:41:30We want it.
00:41:31A hundred bucks.
00:41:32That's ridiculous.
00:41:33Get the fuck out of my car.
00:41:35Dude.
00:41:35Get the fuck out now.
00:41:36No, no.
00:41:36Here, here, here, here.
00:41:38It's in the dashboard.
00:41:40Put the shit in there, too.
00:41:46Now get the fuck out of my car.
00:43:24I don't want to leave, but I have to go catch a train back to Jersey for tomorrow.
00:43:38But can I see you the day after?
00:43:40You will see me as long as you want to.
00:43:43Good.
00:43:44Because I want to see you the day after.
00:43:47And maybe the day after that.
00:43:50And probably the day after that.
00:43:52And I guess we'll see you about the day after that.
00:44:03Hey, hey, hey, hey.
00:44:05That's that guy from the van.
00:44:06That's the dude that ripped us off, dude.
00:44:09Who?
00:44:10Him.
00:44:10That mole right there.
00:44:12That's the dude from the van, man.
00:44:14The guy in the van?
00:44:15Yeah.
00:44:15I don't think so, man.
00:44:16No, that's definitely him, dude.
00:44:17That asshole owes me a hundred bucks.
00:44:18Come on.
00:44:21Hey, Ben.
00:44:27Here today.
00:44:28Got a couple cavities to do.
00:44:29I've done this before.
00:44:30It's really pretty easy.
00:44:32First thing I'm going to do is tip you back just a little bit.
00:44:35Just this light.
00:44:37That's good.
00:44:39A little bit of Novocaine.
00:44:42Hold on.
00:44:43Matthew.
00:44:44Ben, Matthew's here.
00:44:45Matthew's a student at NYU.
00:44:46He's going to help us today.
00:44:49Matthew, why don't you give him a little bit of Novocaine?
00:44:52Oh, you didn't have to gas him.
00:45:02Oh, I guess I misunderstood.
00:45:05Yeah, so I got to come home and change.
00:45:06What time is your party?
00:45:07Four o'clock.
00:45:08Four o'clock?
00:45:11Hey, aren't you the douchebag from last summer's picnic?
00:45:15Are you serious?
00:45:17You make me sick.
00:45:18No, not again.
00:45:25I got fucking robbed, Pluto.
00:45:26I got fucking robbed.
00:45:28What are you doing?
00:45:29Shouldn't we call the police or something?
00:45:31And say what?
00:45:32Oh, please help me, officer.
00:45:34These bad men who I sold drugs to came and stole my other drugs.
00:45:37You sold drugs?
00:45:39Well, not actually.
00:45:40I actually sold them children's vitamins and told them they were drugs.
00:45:43This is because of one of your fucking characters, isn't it?
00:45:46I told you there are consequences.
00:45:48You can't just go around being whoever you want and doing whatever you want
00:45:51and expect it not to bite you in the ass.
00:45:54Watch me.
00:45:56You're doing it now?
00:45:57I have to put these little shits in their place.
00:45:59Pluto, I almost got killed.
00:46:01Does that mean anything to you?
00:46:02You didn't almost get killed, okay?
00:46:04You slept through a robbery.
00:46:05Okay, fine, this time.
00:46:06But what about next time?
00:46:07There won't be a next time.
00:46:09But how do you know?
00:46:11You don't.
00:46:11Because you're gonna keep doing this shit until something really terrible happens.
00:46:16I'll get an alarm.
00:46:17You're such a brat.
00:46:19Excuse me?
00:46:20You're a little selfish brat.
00:46:22Okay, I need to go fix this.
00:46:24So fix it by staying, by getting your apartment together.
00:46:28I'm sorry.
00:46:29Okay, I'm leaving.
00:46:31To where?
00:46:32I don't know.
00:46:33Home.
00:46:33What do you mean home?
00:46:34This is your home.
00:46:34No, I can't be here anymore.
00:46:36Simon, you're not going to come to Thanksgiving with me?
00:46:38Frankly, I don't want to go anywhere with you.
00:46:41Simon.
00:46:42I must admit it, it's about time.
00:46:44I've been mooching off you for long enough.
00:46:46I like when you mooch off of me.
00:46:48My mom's gonna be home alone tonight.
00:46:51I'm gonna go spend Thanksgiving with her.
00:46:53After what she did?
00:46:54You're just gonna let that slide?
00:46:56She's my mother and call me crazy.
00:46:59But yeah, it's enough for me to let it slide.
00:47:01And what about me?
00:47:03I just need to go home.
00:47:06Fine.
00:47:07Leave your key.
00:47:09What?
00:47:10This isn't a hotel.
00:47:11Leave your key and go.
00:47:16Okay, then.
00:47:20Okay, then.
00:47:36Hello?
00:47:38Yes, Pluto.
00:47:41Why?
00:47:42How late?
00:47:43Why?
00:47:44How late?
00:47:50What the fuck is that?
00:47:52It's Thanksgiving.
00:47:54Do you know what that is?
00:47:56You ordered pizza?
00:47:58Have you ever heard of it?
00:47:59Or is it maybe a foreign concept to you?
00:48:02Did you really think I was gonna let that slide?
00:48:04Oh, fuck is right.
00:48:06Sit down.
00:48:07Go.
00:48:08Have a slice.
00:48:09Why isn't he coming?
00:48:11Okay, tell him I said I hope he's feeling better soon.
00:48:14It's pizza.
00:48:15It's free.
00:48:16Shut up and eat the fucking pizza.
00:48:19Rosie, something is burning up here.
00:48:22Is that a fake mustache?
00:48:24Yeah, what's with your accent?
00:48:25Shut up.
00:48:25Fine, fine.
00:48:26Just come as soon as you can.
00:48:28I mean, dude, you ripped us off.
00:48:30What did you expect us to do?
00:48:32Goodbye.
00:48:34Why would you eat something that the guy you just robbed gave you?
00:48:41Miss Strauss, is there something I can help you with?
00:48:44Oh, no.
00:48:45Thanks for asking, dear.
00:48:47Don't worry.
00:48:47You guys will wake up.
00:48:49Oh, you look beautiful.
00:48:51I can hardly wait till Paul comes and sees what a lady you've got.
00:48:55Rosie, something is definitely burning.
00:48:58You fucking...
00:49:03This is plastic, by the way.
00:49:11Mm.
00:49:18Sorry I'm late.
00:49:19Oh, well, look who showed up just in time for dessert.
00:49:24Pluto, you remember Mr. and Mrs. Whitfield and their daughter Olivia?
00:49:30Oh, my God.
00:49:32Well, say something.
00:49:34I know it must have been years since you've seen each other.
00:49:37Yeah, it feels like yesterday.
00:49:39Oh, right.
00:49:40You kids have that Facebook or whatever it is.
00:49:43It kind of kills the spirit of reunion.
00:49:45When did you get a Facebook?
00:49:47See?
00:49:49You didn't even Facebook me.
00:49:57I'm sorry.
00:50:01Olivia, please.
00:50:04What do you want?
00:50:05Let me explain.
00:50:07Do you even speak French?
00:50:09I know like five words.
00:50:10I hate you.
00:50:11No, no, please let me explain.
00:50:13I didn't mean for this to happen like this.
00:50:15Leave me alone.
00:50:16Uh, excuse me.
00:50:18Sorry to interrupt, but Claire and I have an announcement to make.
00:50:23What is this?
00:50:24I can listen.
00:50:25First of all, I'd like to apologize for my appearance.
00:50:30I ran into a little trouble earlier.
00:50:35Anyways, as you all know, Claire and I have been dating for some time now.
00:50:42Yeah?
00:50:43And well, we're getting married.
00:50:51You're what?
00:50:53Pluto, please.
00:50:54Wait, you're gonna marry this guy?
00:50:55Pluto, don't be rude.
00:50:57Claire, what the hell are you thinking?
00:50:59Pluto, shut up.
00:51:00Seriously.
00:51:00This guy's a douchebag.
00:51:01He just wants our money.
00:51:02Pluto, nobody cares what you think.
00:51:04I can't believe you're gonna fall for his lies.
00:51:06What'd you say?
00:51:07You heard me, cock boy.
00:51:09My... my lies.
00:51:14Look, I'd like to tell you all a little story about my good friend Pluto here.
00:51:18Shut up, douchebag.
00:51:19Pluto is a magnificent liar.
00:51:22What?
00:51:22He lies all the damn time.
00:51:24Shut up.
00:51:25Pluto... oh, well, see, that's a lie right there.
00:51:27That's not even his real name.
00:51:29I will climb across this table and I will beat you in the face.
00:51:31Besides that, Pluto likes to dress up as people and play Fantasyland all day long.
00:51:36That's not true.
00:51:37Yes, it is.
00:51:38I've seen him do it.
00:51:39He screws with people and he gets off on it.
00:51:42Lie after lie after lie.
00:51:46That right?
00:51:46That's not how it was with you, okay?
00:51:48Everything was true with you.
00:51:49Right, because you're... you're clearly French.
00:51:52And not some stupid kid I met in grade school.
00:51:55No, no, no, how I feel, okay?
00:51:57Everything was true.
00:51:58Mrs. Strauss, thank you very much for a wonderful Thanksgiving.
00:52:02Congratulations on your engagement.
00:52:05I'm not feeling that great, so I'm gonna excuse myself.
00:52:10It was really nice to see all of you again.
00:52:12I'll see you at home.
00:52:14Wait, Olivia, hold on.
00:52:15Can I see you tomorrow?
00:52:16Why would I see you tomorrow?
00:52:19I don't even know who you are.
00:52:29Well, congratulations, sweetheart.
00:52:41I'm so happy for you both.
00:52:43Thanks, Mom.
00:52:45Way to go, douchebag.
00:52:58And you're out
00:53:01The world spins you round
00:53:05The sky's anything but blue
00:53:12Simply recall this summer day
00:53:16Smile and sunshine in your face
00:53:21And that, baby, I'm nothing without you
00:53:28And when it rains, let it pour
00:53:37Let it sweep through the door
00:53:41For all your sorrows dry in June
00:53:47Just think of the promise that we made
00:53:52Laughing for hours in the shade
00:53:56You'll say, baby, I'm nothing without you
00:54:04Well, I tried walking alone
00:54:09Out in the cold
00:54:14Storm winds blowing black and blue
00:54:20But when that moment arrived
00:54:24With your lips touching mine
00:54:27It got me through
00:54:31You got me through
00:54:36So pick a cloud in the sky
00:54:41Or a bird humming by
00:54:45And curl in closer neath its tune
00:54:50For if you can't find your sunny way
00:54:55You can take comfort in your pain
00:55:00Cause, baby, I'm nothing
00:55:04Sweet baby, I'm nothing
00:55:08My baby, I'm nothing
00:55:14Without you
00:55:19Without you
00:55:50All the time
00:55:54Well, he was really very handsome and I thought I could change him
00:56:00But that man never cared about anybody but himself and you know it
00:56:08Still
00:56:11We come here every year because he was a person and he died and it's the right thing to do
00:56:17And he left us with financial security for the rest of our lives and we should be thankful for that
00:56:24I hate the money
00:56:26You'd be whistling a different tune if you didn't have it
00:56:31Although sometimes I wish we didn't have any of it
00:56:36You wouldn't act the way you do
00:56:42I'm sorry
00:56:47I've come to a decision
00:56:50You will no longer play the games you've been playing with your life with our lives
00:56:57Cut this shit out
00:57:00No more wins no more costumes no more silly disguises
00:57:06Grow up be the man in the family something your father could never do
00:57:12Just
00:57:15Take this day to remember who he was and what not to do with your life
00:57:20Or don't expect a scent of his ever again
00:57:26Okay

00:57:35He said he could set you up with a job starting next week their hand is you on a platter

00:58:08I
00:58:10Dad died around the same time that they were known as pluto as a planet
00:58:14I just didn't think it was very fair. I mean
00:58:18He's the underdog planet
00:58:20I always wanted a cool name and I knew it was the only time i'd be able to get away with it
00:58:31Cut that shit out
00:58:37So
00:59:08I hate the sight of your face
00:59:13I hate the sight of your face, too
00:59:17Your play is good
00:59:19Really? Yes
00:59:21and admitting that is
00:59:23It's hard. It's really hard. It's like
00:59:26It's like being choked to death
00:59:28By a snake an evil snake that makes you eat mushrooms
00:59:32mushrooms
00:59:34I hate mushrooms
00:59:36I don't think I should be in it. Why not? Because I don't know the first thing about acting ben

01:02:47Yeah. Yeah, I have a dress rehearsal after this so i'm trying to focus and whatnot. Oh plus I have work in the morning
01:02:54Well, that's great because I think I rolled a really terrible one
01:03:00You know you need to
01:03:02Take a step back and look how much has changed. You're not even doing what brought you into my office in the first place
01:03:07You're a different person
01:03:08You're you're a different person than the man. I met six months ago
01:03:13Aren't you proud of yourself?
01:03:16Look
01:03:19I liked doing what I was doing. It was fun
01:03:26It's just that the excuse is just not good enough anymore
01:03:30Your father
01:03:32I'm just pissed that he got away with it. Oh, he fucking got away with it
01:03:37And he took the easy way out by dying. Yeah by dying
01:03:42Plus he's getting what he always wanted which is what?
01:03:45I'm at his office working for his company that he built. Oh, he would just love it
01:03:53Even after he's dead. He's still making me do things. I don't want to do
01:03:59I remember uh
01:04:02A few weeks after he died. I called my mom at the house to see how she'd been, you know check in on her
01:04:07And the voicemail picked up
01:04:11And it was still his voice they hadn't changed the machine yet
01:04:16And I hung up quick
01:04:20And then I called back
01:04:24And then I called back again
01:04:26I kept listening to his voice over and over again. God. It felt like I hadn't heard it in so long
01:04:35It almost felt like I never heard it at all before
01:04:40Eventually, uh rosie picked up apparently I woke her up from a nap
01:04:48I've made a lot of mistakes and i'm sorry that I hurt a lot of people
01:04:57But I don't regret what i've done I just regret the excuse
01:05:09I regret what I did to that girl
01:05:15Well, maybe she'll come to the play
01:05:18Yeah, maybe
01:05:19She hasn't reserved a ticket yet. There's still time. I got mine
01:05:23I think you'll like it. It's pretty good
01:05:26Pretty fucked up though. So I hope you aren't offended easily
01:05:31And now ladies and gentlemen a comedy

01:08:03Hi, mr. Strauss paul. Come on in
01:08:06right paul
01:08:08Something came for you. It came to my desk by accident. Just thought i'd bring it on over. Oh sure
01:08:13Yeah, you can just leave it on the desk. Thanks
01:08:15I
01:08:22Knew your father
01:08:23uh
01:08:25Yeah. Yeah, I imagine you would have working here
01:08:28No, I really knew him
01:08:30Had lunch together almost every day for 25 years
01:08:34well, then uh
01:08:36You probably knew him better than I did. I just
01:08:40I just didn't expect to see you here
01:08:42What?
01:08:43Well from what he always said
01:08:46He always said that when he spoke of you that you were destined for better things bigger things
01:08:52Well, I guess my father didn't know me that well after all did he?
01:08:55No, you see the thing is
01:08:59He asked me
01:09:01Made me promise actually that if I ever saw you here if you ever came to work in this building that
01:09:09That I would
01:09:12I would make you leave
01:09:15Are you firing me? No, no, I don't have any authority to fire you I just
01:09:23I didn't want to break a promise to your father
01:09:27I know you had your differences, but he was a good man from what I knew he was
01:09:32He kept me employed for many years of my life
01:09:36Put bread on my family's table
01:09:39He always took care of me
01:09:42For that I am grateful
01:09:45So I
01:09:47Can't break a promise
01:09:52I don't understand what you want me to do
01:10:00I want you to leave mr. Strauss
01:10:04And I kindly hope I don't ever see you again
01:10:12You
01:10:16It was a real pleasure
01:10:41So
01:11:11Do
01:11:41So
01:12:11You
