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

00:00:36I swear to God, if that guy touches my ass one more time, I'm gonna freak!
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

00:03:20Theodore Thomas Show
00:03:24It was mortifying, doctor
00:03:26Yes, I can imagine
00:03:27Well, I couldn't have
00:03:29He's been doing this for some time
00:03:31but never in front of me
00:03:32And that's why you called me now?
00:03:34He crossed a line
00:03:36These are my friends
00:03:38These were my husband's friends
00:03:40I understand he passed away
00:03:42Three years ago
00:03:44drowned himself
00:03:45It was terrible
00:03:48It's time to move on.
00:03:50Were he and Paul close?
00:03:52No, they never got along.
00:03:54No one was really close to that man, not even me.
00:03:57Look, I don't know what this is all about.
00:04:00I just need you to make sure it doesn't happen again.
00:04:03At least not near my club.
00:04:05Of course, I'll do everything I can.
00:04:07Thank you, Doctor.
00:04:13I understand that's how you feel, but I...
00:04:16Yes, but if I could just give you my opinion...
00:04:22Yeah, yeah, okay.
00:04:26Jen and Rob are gonna have a kid.
00:04:30You know, she's pregnant.
00:04:32I just thought she was telling me this the whole time.
00:04:34She's totally pregnant. Totally.
00:04:36Totally.
00:04:43No, I'm not going there.
00:04:45I'm not going there. No, I'll go there.
00:04:47Uh, Mr. Strauss, you can go on in.
00:04:50Yeah, I'm still at work.
00:04:52No, it doesn't matter.
00:04:59Hello?
00:05:01Oh, shit. Fuck.
00:05:03Fuck, fuck, fuck. I'm sorry.
00:05:05Fuck. Oh, you were supposed to...
00:05:10It's fine.
00:05:15Mary?
00:05:17Yes, Dr. Danzig?
00:05:19I thought you said I didn't have any more appointments for the day.
00:05:21I did.
00:05:23You did?
00:05:25I'm sorry, Dr. Danzig.
00:05:27Go home for the day.
00:05:29He is my last patient, correct?
00:05:32What?
00:05:35I'm sorry, Dr. Danzig.
00:05:40I told you. It's fine.
00:05:43Wow. Fuck.
00:05:45I really shouldn't be doing this.
00:05:48Towel the door.
00:05:50Yeah? Yeah. Towel the door.
00:06:00What the hell?
00:06:05What the hell?
00:06:12Bad day?
00:06:14Something like that. I'm Greg.
00:06:16Pluto.
00:06:18Oh, like the planet?
00:06:20No, like the Disney character. Yes, like the planet.
00:06:22Oh. Is that short for something?
00:06:24What would it be short for?
00:06:26I don't know.
00:06:28I guess I just never heard of someone being named after a planet before.
00:06:32My name is Paul, and Pluto is the name of a Roman god that a planet was named after.
00:06:38That you go by?
00:06:40Right.
00:06:46I spoke to your mother yesterday.
00:06:48I would love to have a copy of that conversation.
00:06:50Yeah, I didn't expect you to show up.
00:06:52I'm here. Right.
00:06:54So, uh, go ahead, Doc. Fix me.
00:06:58Uh, well, what is it that you think needs fixing?
00:07:02No idea. You're the one who spoke to my mother.
00:07:04She told me about your little incident at the country club.
00:07:08Good times.
00:07:10Yeah, yeah. So you dress up like other people?
00:07:13Sure.
00:07:14You screw with everyone else?
00:07:16Sort of.
00:07:17Well, you lie to them about who you are and where you're from, what you do.
00:07:21It's a little more complicated than that.
00:07:23Well, you're not afraid of getting caught or hurting someone?
00:07:26Well, that's half the fun, Greg.
00:07:32I'm not sure if I'm really stoned or just having trouble understanding.
00:07:37Um, give me an example of a typical day.
00:07:42Well, it's never the same.
00:07:44Well, it's got to start from somewhere.
00:07:46Okay.
00:07:50I guess, uh, I guess I would start with my hands.
00:07:55From there I go wherever my imagination takes me.
00:07:59But it wouldn't be any fun for me if you knew any more than that, Greg.
00:08:03It's mine. It's my drug. It's my addiction.
00:08:08It's the most fun I get to have all day.
00:08:11What's not to love about it?
00:08:13I get to be anyone I want to be.
00:08:15Whatever they would do, I do.
00:08:18You wouldn't believe the people that I've met, the things that I've gotten to see.
00:08:22That would never happen for Paul Strauss.
00:08:25But for Pluto, for the people I've become,
00:08:29we get the excitement, the danger, the spontaneity.
00:08:35My life is not monotonous.
00:08:38My day is different every day.
00:08:42Can you say the same?
00:08:52No.
00:09:10I 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?
00:09:20I didn't make it.
00:09:22Oh. Who made it?
00:09:24Rosie.
00:09:25Oh.
00:09:27Good.
00:09:28What do you mean, good?
00:09:30She makes a better sandwich.
00:09:32Than who?
00:09:33Than you.
00:09:35You know, you're a real asshole.
00:09:37That's nice, Mother.
00:09:39I hate it when you smoke.
00:09:41I'm sorry to hear that.
00:09:43Didn't you learn anything from your father?
00:09:45Are you done?
00:09:48Claire tells me you're still being rude to Ben.
00:09:51I don't like him.
00:09:53You hate everyone.
00:09:54I don't hate everyone.
00:09:56Name one person you don't hate.
00:09:58Oscar.
00:09:59Oscar's a cat. He doesn't count.
00:10:01I don't hate everyone.
00:10:03Just a lot of people.
00:10:10How are your sessions going?
00:10:12They're fine.
00:10:18Aren't you going to eat that sandwich?
00:10:20I don't even know what kind it is.
00:10:26Well.
00:10:28I gotta run, sweetheart.
00:10:30It's good to see you doing so well.
00:10:37What's in that sandwich?
00:10:39I don't know.
00:10:46Damn you, Rosie.
00:10:48She even cut the crust.
00:10:50I told you.
00:10:52She's good.
00:10:53Yeah.
00:10:55Yeah, she is.
00:11:06Meet Simon.
00:11:07Simon is sleeping.
00:11:08Simon is almost always sleeping
00:11:10because he suffers from a rare disorder
00:11:12known as Klein-Levin syndrome.
00:11:14Some symptoms include
00:11:16excessive food intake,
00:11:18irritability,
00:11:20disorientation,
00:11:21hallucinations,
00:11:23and an abnormally uninhibited sex drive.
00:11:39Hello?
00:11:41Hey, you're awake.
00:11:43I tried going to an audition this morning.
00:11:45How'd that go?
00:11:47I don't want to talk about it.
00:11:49Where are you going?
00:11:51Out with Claire and her boyfriend.
00:11:54Douchebag.
00:11:55That's the one.
00:11:56He's a very nice boy, Pluto.
00:11:58You think everyone's nice.
00:12:00No, you just hate everyone.
00:12:02That's what my mother said, too.
00:12:04Pick one.
00:12:06Don't scare this guy away.
00:12:08Okay, I'll pick one.
00:12:10This is unhealthy, Pluto.
00:12:13My mother says hi, by the way.
00:12:18Hi.
00:12:22Oh, shit. Give me a second.
00:12:25I told you not to call at this time.
00:12:27I'm sorry. I had to talk to you.
00:12:29This really isn't a good time. If my wife...
00:12:31I don't want to hear about your wife.
00:12:33No, honey.
00:12:35Try the left door. No, the other door.
00:12:38Hold on. I'll be right there.
00:12:40Look, I really have to go.
00:12:41I need to see you again.
00:12:43I don't know if that's possible.
00:12:44Make it possible.
00:12:45Look, I have to go. Don't call this number again.
00:12:47Wait, I really need to...
00:12:49Who was that?
00:12:50Some lady.
00:12:51You sleep with her?
00:12:53Maybe.
00:12:54She thinks you're married.
00:12:56Maybe.
00:12:57That's real nice, Pluto.
00:12:59What?
00:13:00You're cheating.
00:13:01On who? I don't have a wife.
00:13:03But she thinks you do.
00:13:04So really, she is the cheater.
00:13:06Is she married?
00:13:08Not that I know of.
00:13:10Fuck, I hope not.
00:13:11Seriously, you need to come up with a new hobby.
00:13:14Why? This 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...
00:13:23I 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.
00:13:34Olivia Whitfield.
00:13:40Oh, you remember her.
00:13:42From the third grade to the sixth grade, we were in love.
00:13:46We probably would have been together forever
00:13:48if her father didn't get a job across the country
00:13:51and move her away from me.
00:13:53That is not how it happened at all.
00:13:56Okay, I was not that gay.
00:13:59A little less gay.
00:14:00What?
00:14:01Yeah, a little less.
00:14:03That's not how it happened at all.
00:14:06That's better.
00:14:08We both know she had a crush on me.
00:14:11She rejected you.
00:14:13Many times.
00:14:15You cried on my shoulder.
00:14:17It's okay, little buddy.
00:14:20You want to come along tonight?
00:14:22So you make Claire's boyfriend cry again?
00:14:24I'll pass.
00:14:25It's great.
00:14:26Really?
00:14:27Really, really.
00:14:29Do you like the style?
00:14:30I don't know, I'm nervous about the style.
00:14:32It's different, you know?
00:14:33The style's great, baby.
00:14:35You don't think it's different?
00:14:36It's very different.
00:14:38I don't like it.
00:14:39I don't like it.
00:14:40I don't like it.
00:14:41I don't like it.
00:14:42I don't like it.
00:14:43I don't like it.
00:14:44I don't like it.
00:14:45I don't like it.
00:14:46I don't like it.
00:14:47You don't think it's different?
00:14:48It's very different.
00:14:49Yeah, but like great different, right?
00:14:51Not like this sucks different?
00:14:52Like awesome different.
00:14:56Awesome different.
00:14:57I'm proud of you.
00:14:59I'm just so glad it's done.
00:15:00Totally.
00:15:01Do you think your brother might do it?
00:15:03What?
00:15:04I don't know, I think he'd be really great.
00:15:06I know he probably hasn't acted in an actual play since like childhood,
00:15:10but I based a lot of the lead off of him,
00:15:13and I don't know, I think that he would get it more than anybody else.
00:15:16We're thinking of the same person, right?
00:15:18Yeah, do you think he'd do it?
00:15:20He 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 going to be his brother-in-law eventually.
00:15:32Ben.
00:15:33What, am I wrong?
00:15:34No.
00:15:38Look, I mean, I know he hates me.
00:15:40He doesn't hate you, he's like that with everyone.
00:15:44Claire, he hates me.
00:15:46Why 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, in the park,
00:15:56remember when he pretended to be retarded?
00:15:58Douchebag! Douchebag! Douchebag! Douchebag! Douchebag! Douchebag!
00:16:05It's not funny, I 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?
00:16:14Well, at least he paid for the hospital bills.
00:16:16No, your family paid for them.
00:16:18They did, he didn't pay for anything.
00:16:20Just 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, I'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.
00:16:38Douchebag! 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.
00:17:09What did you just tell that kid?
00:17:11That I'm going to sign his band to my music agency.
00:17:15But you don't have a music agency.
00:17:18Yes, Ben, that's right, I do not actually have a music agency.
00:17:22Why did you do that?
00:17:23I'm just having a little fun.
00:17:25At what expense?
00:17:26I didn't hurt anyone.
00:17:27Those kids think that something really great just happened to them.
00:17:30Why is that a bad thing?
00:17:31Because it's a lie, because nothing happened to them.
00:17:34Sure it did.
00:17:35Well, what happened?
00:17:36They're going to be in the same place tomorrow that they are today.
00:17:38Okay, but tonight they'll celebrate.
00:17:41Tonight they will feel great.
00:17:43Yeah, but what about tomorrow?
00:17:45I won't be here tomorrow.
00:17:47I think that's pretty selfish, Pluto.
00:17:49I disagree.
00:17:50How?
00:17:51Well, Ben, it's actually not that hard.
00:17:53All I do is take the previous statement and negate it,
00:17:56and therefore I've not agreed with it, i.e. disagreed.
00:17:59Don't be an asshole.
00:18:00That's what Mom said too.
00:18:01How can you possibly think that that's not true?
00:18:03Well, A, because this has nothing to do with me,
00:18:06and B, because, okay, they're not gaining anything,
00:18:10but they're not losing anything either.
00:18:12Because of me, tonight their night will be a little bit better.
00:18:15That's retarded.
00:18:17That is not a very nice word, Ben.
00:18:19I thought we learned that this summer.
00:18:20Pluto.
00:18:21Stop.
00:18:22Why do you hang out with this guy?
00:18:23Paul.
00:18:24Does this work out your daddy issues?
00:18:28I've got to go.
00:18:29More people to lie to?
00:18:31More people to lie to?
00:18:32No, silly.
00:18:34More people to excite.
00:18:40I told you.
00:18:41He hates me.
00:19:02Wake up.
00:19:04What?
00:19:05Wake up, Simon.
00:19:06Wake up.
00:19:07I need your help.
00:19:08I'm sleeping.
00:19:09It's 2 o'clock in the afternoon, Simon.
00:19:10I need your help.
00:19:11It's a disease, Pluto.
00:19:12If I could wake up, I would.
00:19:14You can.
00:19:15You can for me.
00:19:16Now get up.
00:19:17What is it?
00:19:18I'm going back to sleep.
00:19:20No, no, no, no.
00:19:21Get up.
00:19:22This is important.
00:19:23This is serious.
00:19:24Seventh grade talent show.
00:19:25You begged me for weeks to sing
00:19:27Bosom 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.
00:19:40What 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.
00:19:55Was it a 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?
00:20:34No, she didn't see me. I hid.
00:20:36Maybe 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?
00:20:49If she's so special, wouldn't you want to impress her as yourself?
00:20:52What's impressive about me?
00:20:54I'm just like everybody else, okay?
00:20:56Everyone else isn't impressive.
00:20:58I need to be better than everyone else.
00:21:00What do women like?
00:21:02Their boyfriends?
00:21:03You don't know if she has a boyfriend.
00:21:05Pluto.
00:21:06Please.
00:21:08I love a cute European guy.
00:21:10Okay, hey, yeah, yeah, that's good.
00:21:12What languages have you studied?
00:21:14My Latin is impeccable.
00:21:15Pluto.
00:21:16Any ideas?
00:21:18I dated a French guy before.
00:21:21He was adorable.
00:21:23Oh yeah?
00:21:24Oh my God, yes.
00:21:25So hot.
00:21:27I 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.
00:21:36What was his name?
00:21:38Sebastian.
00:21:40Oh, I like that.
00:21:42Are you going to see this girl again?
00:21:43Definitely.
00:21:44Well, tell her I said hey, girl.
00:21:46I'm going to go practice this accent.
00:21:48Great, fine, whatever.
00:21:49Let me know how it works out.
00:21:52And when I get up, I'm going to 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 bosom buddies.
00:22:23Meredith.
00:22:30She didn't show up.
00:22:31I was sure she would.
00:22:33I wasn't going back.
00:22:34That was it.
00:22:35She lost her chance.
00:22:36Had you planned on meeting?
00:22:37No, no, we never actually talked about it or anything.
00:22:39But, you know, I expected her there.
00:22:42And then I got angry and sad and I thought about doing some really awful things.
00:22:47Five, six, seven, eight.
00:22:55When I ask for a right batma and a double, I better get a right batma and a double.
00:23:00What is this, people?
00:23:01Community theater?
00:23:02Now, as your guidance counselor, I would recommend taking my advice.
00:23:08Have you considered clown college?
00:23:13Wait, you robbed someone?
00:23:15No, Greg, I didn't do any of those things.
00:23:17What kind of person do you think I am?
00:23:19I'm sorry.
00:23:20It's all right.
00:23:21No, that was so rude of me.
00:23:22I really shouldn't have done that.
00:23:23I appreciate the concern.
00:23:24And the wallet saves us a lot of time.
00:23:26Yeah, having to call and cancel the credit cards.
00:23:28And getting a new license at the DMV is the worst.
00:23:30The worst.
00:23:31I don't even think I have much money in here.
00:23:33Nope, six dollars.
00:23:35Look at that.
00:23:36Six bucks.
00:23:37A waste of everyone's time in the end.
00:23:38I don't even have a gun.
00:23:40Oh, oh.
00:23:44Oh, well nice to have met you guys.
00:23:46Yeah, you too.
00:23:47Hey, good luck with Olivia.
00:23:48Yeah, I hope she shows up the next time you go looking for her.
00:23:50Thanks.
00:23:51You know, I'm really just frustrated.
00:23:52I thought you said you didn't do that.
00:23:54I didn't.
00:23:56I went back to wait for her the next day after all.
00:24:00Excuse me, sir.
00:24:01Could I just take a moment of your time?
00:24:03Hold on.
00:24:04Oh, I'm sorry.
00:24:05Do you not speak English?
00:24:06Oui.
00:24:07Oh, good, because the first thing you said to me was in French,
00:24:09and that was in French.
00:24:12I'm sorry.
00:24:13Do you speak English?
00:24:14Yes.
00:24:15Oh, good.
00:24:16Oui, oui.
00:24:17Well, could I just take one minute of your time?
00:24:19Can you sit?
00:24:21Sit?
00:24:22I am in no rush.
00:24:23Are you?
00:24:24No, I guess not.
00:24:26Excellent.
00:24:27Let'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.
00:24:40I was in Europe for a year for study abroad in college.
00:24:43Everyone there had such great names.
00:24:45Did you visit France?
00:24:46Yeah, I was in Paris for like a week.
00:24:49It was amazing.
00:24:50How is your French?
00:24:51Oh, terrible.
00:24:52I can't speak a word of it.
00:24:54Oh, oh, I totally forgot why we were here.
00:24:57I'm with RHM.
00:24:59We're a human rights group.
00:25:00We 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 okay.
00:25:10Any compensation can help, really.
00:25:12If you just give me your info, I can send you details.
00:25:14You can send in a check of however much you want.
00:25:17If you're just being nice to me, that's okay, too.
00:25:20But it's really a great program to learn about.
00:25:25Why 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
00:25:34and you tell me everything that I need to know.
00:25:39Well, I kind of have to go around a little more.
00:25:43I'm supposed to cover this whole area by a certain hour.
00:25:46Oh.
00:25:48But I'll be here tomorrow.
00:25:50Will you be around?
00:25:52I will be right here.
00:25:55You know, something about you looks so familiar.
00:25:58I don't know, just something about your face.
00:26:00You remind me of someone or something.
00:26:03Do you get that a lot?
00:26:04Not usually.
00:26:06Maybe we met in Paris.
00:26:07Maybe it's destiny.
00:26:09Whoa, I don't know about that.
00:26:11Am I using the wrong word?
00:26:14No, it's just a little dramatic.
00:26:23Oh, no, no, I hate the taste.
00:26:26You know, you go ahead.
00:26:29I'll see you tomorrow, Sebastian.
00:26:31Au revoir, Olivia.
00:26:33Au 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 blackened salmon.
00:26:59Yeah, I'm not going to be ordering any of that shit.
00:27:01Can you just go get me a coffee?
00:27:02Black?
00:27:03Thanks, I'm going to be meeting someone any minute.
00:27:05Oh, okay.
00:27:07Yeah, I'll get that while you're waiting.
00:27:09Thanks.
00:27:14Excuse me, sir.
00:27:15Christ.
00:27:17Would you mind if I joined you for a few moments?
00:27:21Yeah, I guess for a minute.
00:27:22Thank you, thank you, thank you.
00:27:24I just, I hate sitting alone.
00:27:27Hi.
00:27:28Why, hello there, madam.
00:27:30How are you today?
00:27:31I'm fine, thank you.
00:27:32Coffee, sir.
00:27:33Would you like to be in today's specials?
00:27:34No, no, no.
00:27:35She's not going to be staying.
00:27:36Yes, 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, banging.
00:27:44Bisque, banging, okay?
00:27:46The fish of the day is the blackened salmon.
00:27:48We went right ahead and blackened that up for you.
00:27:50And that's going to about conclude the specials for today.
00:27:54All right?
00:27:55Yes.
00:27:58That was a wonderful presentation.
00:28:02I will have a glass of water.
00:28:06Of course.
00:28:19This is my grandson, Stuart.
00:28:23Isn't he adorable?
00:28:26He's great.
00:28:28Yes, he's adorable.
00:28:33May I ask you something?
00:28:37Sure.
00:28:38A sweet old lady comes and asks you for some company,
00:28:42and you won't even give her the time of day.
00:28:45Why is that?
00:28:46Look, I'm sorry.
00:28:47I'm waiting here for someone, and it's really important.
00:28:49This is why you don't deserve my sister.
00:28:52What?
00:28:54You 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.
00:29:14You're saying 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's suit.
00:29:27I can't believe how retarded I am.
00:29:29You're clearly wearing a mask.
00:29:31Is everything okay?
00:29:32Yes, Steve, yes, yes.
00:29:34He's my son.
00:29:35He's just on a short break from the Levinson Institute down the road.
00:29:40Take it easy, sir.
00:29:41He's lying to you.
00:29:42If you don't calm down, I'm going to have to go right ahead and ask you to leave.
00:29:46Oh, eat me, Steve.
00:29:48Oh, my heavens.
00:29:49Stephen, Stephen, dear, thank you.
00:29:51Thank you for your help.
00:29:52I have a very kind of you, very kind.
00:30:06My sister told me that you wanted to ask me to be in your play.
00:30:10Ben, I would be in your fucking play if Shakespeare himself helped you write it.
00:30:16Douchebag.
00:30:19Yeah.
00:30:42I used to work at a cafe last summer.
00:30:45God, it was so awful.
00:30:47Why?
00:30:48I don't know.
00:30:49Shitty pay, shitty boss.
00:30:51You know, I remember running home literally every time I left work.
00:30:57I mean, not the whole way.
00:30:58I would walk because it was pretty close.
00:31:00But 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 it closer to the toilet?
00:31:09Yeah, exactly.
00:31:11Oh, that was my favorite part of the day.
00:31:13Just the running.
00:31:15I felt like a little kid again, you know?
00:31:17I mean, how often is it that you see grown adults running?
00:31:21Now, sometimes.
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.
00:31:37Ask me anything.
00:31:39Anything?
00:31:40Yeah, go for it.
00:31:42What do you want to do with your life?
00:31:46That's a loaded question.
00:31:48You said anything.
00:31:49It seems like an important thing to know about the person.
00:31:55Well, I guess I don't really know.
00:31:58Me either.
00:32:00Really?
00:32:01Really, really.
00:32:03Well, do you think that's a bad thing?
00:32:06Well, do you think that's a bad thing?
00:32:09I 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.
00:32:19I guess.
00:32:20I 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.
00:32:25I'm legitimately helping people, but...
00:32:28I don't know.
00:32:29It's not enough.
00:32:30I'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.
00:32:39Hey, 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.
00:32:48But you came in here so excited, so energetic.
00:32:51You know, it's great to hear someone talk about another person like that.
00:32:54It's infectious.
00:32:56So now I'm living vicariously through you, Pluto.
00:33:00Why do you want to screw this up?
00:33:02Well, it's too late now, don't you think?
00:33:04No, I don't.
00:33:05I think if you told her now, maybe you could pass it off as a joke.
00:33:08A one or two time thing.
00:33:09You know, kind of weird.
00:33:11Sure.
00:33:12But women love to laugh.
00:33:14At least most women do.
00:33:16It'll give her a good laugh.
00:33:18No.
00:33:19She wouldn't buy that.
00:33:20I'll just pretend as long as I can.
00:33:22Are you afraid of having something real?
00:33:25What?
00:33:26Something real between two people.
00:33:28No.
00:33:30You go around hiding behind these people you make up.
00:33:33Why is it fair for you to ask someone to care for someone who doesn't even care about himself?
00:33:37Are you married, Greg?
00:33:41Yeah. Yes, I am.
00:33:43And how's that work out for you?
00:33:45It's fine.
00:33:47Why do you ask?
00:33:49Well, 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, so 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.
00:34:03Right, 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.
00:34:13You don't need to get all goodwill hunting on me.
00:34:16It's fine.
00:34:21So, um...
00:34:24So I've been dreaming in cartoon.
00:34:27What?
00:34:28Yeah, 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.
00:34:38I 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.
00:34:51And I was this little mouse, living in one of those semicircle holes in a family's kitchen that you only actually see in cartoons.
00:34:57And all around the room, there were these random vases and containers.
00:35:01And 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 that Magritte painting with the apple.
00:35:10But the thing that he dropped inside, I know that I want it.
00:35:14I need it.
00:35:15So I decide to climb to the tallest and highest one of these containers, because I'm going to 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, the man with the covered face hits me on top of the head with another one.
00:35:30So I lay there.
00:35:32Alone.
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.
00:35:41Suddenly, I'm in this grocery store, and the man with the covered face is counting his change in one of those coin counting machines.
00:35:48And I fall out.
00:35:50A dead mouse in a pool of money.
00:35:55And then I woke up.
00:35:57But I don't take dreams too seriously.
00:36:00Well, what do you think it means?
00:36:03Nothing.
00:36:05I think it's a random assortment of ideas and thoughts meshed 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. I...
00:36:21Okay.
00:36:23Um...
00:36:24No, I...
00:36:26Mm-hmm.
00:36:28There's no need to curse, Mrs. Danzing.
00:36:31I'm going to transfer you right now.
00:36:35That fool.
00:36:38Mary was, um...
00:36:40Was that Dr. Danzing's wife?
00:36:42I don't...
00:36:44I don't really think I'm supposed to share that sort of information.
00:36:47Oh, Mary, it's not a big deal. We'll keep it between us.
00:36:52Well, yeah, yeah, that was her.
00:36:54Yeah.
00:36:56And she's... she's... she's a bitch.
00:36:58She's a huge bitch.
00:37:00You know, she's just...
00:37:02You look at her, and you can tell she's a mean person.
00:37:04She probably stabs her friends in the back, right?
00:37:06One of those bitches. You 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
00:37:14because 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.
00:37:21And if you argue with me, or blink, or breathe, or do anything,
00:37:24I will shove this bitch trophy up your ass!
00:37:27That kind of bitch, yeah.
00:37:31Are you okay?
00:37:33I'm fine.
00:37:37I have a picture of her.
00:37:39From last Christmas party here.
00:37:42Judge for yourself.
00:37:44Pretty, right?
00:37:46But a huge bitch.
00:37:48Well, that's a coincidence.
00:37:50What is?
00:37:52Oh, no, I can see right here in this picture.
00:37:54What a bitch.
00:37:56I'm sorry.
00:37:58How is that a coincidence?
00:38:00I'll see you next week, Mary.
00:38:02Okay, honey.
00:38:04Stupid bitch.
00:38:09Okay.
00:38:12Oh, goodbye, my Coney Island baby
00:38:18Farewell, my own true love
00:38:22I'm gonna go away and leave you
00:38:25Never to see you, Annie
00:38:28Never gonna see you, Annie
00:38:31Never gonna see you, Annie
00:38:34Never gonna see you, Annie
00:38:37Never gonna see you, Annie
00:38:40Never gonna see you, Annie
00:38:43You have to be fucking kidding me!
00:38:46Pluto!
00:38:51Come on, let's go.
00:38:53Let's go.
00:38:55Goodbye, my Coney Island
00:38:57Goodbye, my Coney Island
00:38:59Goodbye, my Coney Island
00:39:06I don't suppose you want to smoke?
00:39:08Your mother is pretty pissed off.
00:39:10Okay.
00:39:11Do you not care at all?
00:39:12I didn't do anything wrong.
00:39:13This isn't normal, Pluto.
00:39:15Do you realize that?
00:39:16What you're doing is not something that people do every day.
00:39:19It is out of the ordinary.
00:39:21It is abnormal.
00:39:22And your mom is really upset.
00:39:24She doesn't like this at all.
00:39:26You know she could cut off your funds.
00:39:27No, she can't.
00:39:28Yes, she can.
00:39:29Your 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.
00:39:33Because it's not healthy, Pluto.
00:39:35You can't lie to people the way you do.
00:39:38What would you do?
00:39:40What?
00:39:41What would you do if you had no more money?
00:39:43You couldn't afford that expensive apartment of yours.
00:39:45You'd have to get a job.
00:39:47You'd have to pay for your rent, your health insurance, your cell phone bill.
00:39:51You'd need to buy food.
00:39:52Okay, I got it.
00:40:01Look, I'm going to prescribe you something.
00:40:03I don't need it.
00:40:04It's benzodiazepine, a generic form of Xanax.
00:40:08It's often used to treat people with tension, anxiety, and depression.
00:40:14I'm not crazy.
00:40:17It's pretty strong.
00:40:19People get hooked on it pretty easily, so only take it when you feel like doing what you do.
00:40:24Is this because I brought up your wife?
00:40:26Look, man, I meant no harm, okay?
00:40:28I can't force you to take this.
00:40:30But it's my medical recommendation.
00:40:35I'm disappointed in you, Greg.
00:40:49Oh, fuck.
00:40:54What the hell, man?
00:40:56Do you need some cash?
00:40:58Put it up.
00:41:00I'm sleeping.
00:41:02What else is new?
00:41:04What's your problem?
00:41:06We'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.
00:41:17I couldn't leave him at my parents' house alone.
00:41:19I'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, we want it.
00:41:31A hundred bucks.
00:41:32That's ridiculous.
00:41:33Get the fuck out of my car.
00:41:34Dude.
00:41:35Get the fuck out now.
00:41:36No, no, here, 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.
00:42:01What the fuck?
00:42:31I'm sorry.
00:42:32I'm sorry.

00:43:50I'm sorry.
00:43:51I'm sorry.
00:43:52I'm sorry.
00:43:53I'm sorry.
00:43:54I'm sorry.
00:43:55I'm sorry.
00:43:56I'm sorry.
00:43:57I'm sorry.
00:43:58I'm sorry.
00:43:59I'm so sorry.
00:44:00I'm sorry.
00:44:01I'm sorry.
00:44:02I'm sorry.
00:44:03I'm sorry.
00:44:04I'm sorry.
00:44:05I'm sorry.
00:44:06I'm sorry.
00:44:07I'm sorry.
00:44:08Hey, hey, hey, that's that guy from the van.
00:44:09That's the dude that ripped us off, dude.
00:44:10Who?
00:44:11Him, that mole, right there.
00:44:12That's the dude from the van, man.
00:44:13The guy in the van?
00:44:14Yeah.
00:44:15I don't think so, man.
00:44:16No, that's definitely him, dude.
00:44:18That asshole owes me $100, come on.
00:44:24Hey Ben, here today you've got a couple cavities to do.
00:44:29I've done this before.
00:44:30It's really pretty easy.
00:44:31First thing I'm going to do is tip you back just a little bit.
00:44:36Just this light.
00:44:37That's good.
00:44:38A little bit of Novocaine.
00:44:39Hold on.
00:44:40Matthew!
00:44:41Ben, Matthew's here.
00:44:42Matthew's a student at NYU.
00:44:43He's going to help us today.
00:44:44Matthew, why don't you give him a little bit of Novocaine.
00:44:45Oh, you didn't have to gas him.
00:45:02Oh, I guess I misunderstood.
00:45:04Yes, I've got to come home and change.
00:45:07What time is your party, Rex?
00:45:08Four o'clock.
00:45:09Hey, aren't you the douchebag from last summer's picnic?
00:45:11Are you serious?
00:45:12You make me sick.
00:45:13Novocaine again.
00:45:14I got fucking robbed, Pluto.
00:45:23I got fucking robbed.
00:45:29What are you doing?
00:45:30Shouldn'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.
00:45:38You sold drugs?
00:45:39I'm not actually. I 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 and expect it not to bite you in the ass.
00:45:54Watch me.
00:45:56You're doing it now?
00:45:58I have to put these little shits in their place.
00:46:00Pluto, I almost got killed. Does that mean anything to you?
00:46:03You didn't almost get killed, okay? You slept through a robbery.
00:46:06Okay, fine, this time. But what about next time?
00:46:08There won't be a next time.
00:46:10But how do you know? You don't.
00:46:12Because you're gonna keep doing this shit until something really terrible happens.
00:46:16I'll get an alarm.
00:46:18You're such a brat.
00:46:20Excuse me?
00:46:21You're a little selfish brat.
00:46:23Okay, I need to go fix this.
00:46:25So fix it by staying, by getting your apartment together.
00:46:28I'm sorry.
00:46:30Okay, I'm leaving.
00:46:32To where?
00:46:33I don't know. Home.
00:46:34What do you mean home? This is your home.
00:46:35No, I can't be here anymore.
00:46:37And you're not gonna come to Thanksgiving with me?
00:46:39Frankly, 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? You're just gonna let that slide?
00:46:56She's my mother, and call me crazy, but yeah.
00:47:00It'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.
00:47:18Okay then.
00:47:22Okay then.
00:47:25Fuck.
00:47:38Hello?
00:47:40Yes, Pluto.
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?
00:48:00Or 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?
00:48:12Okay, tell him I said I hope he's feeling better soon.
00:48:16It's pizza. It's free.
00:48:18Shut up and eat the fucking pizza.
00:48:20Rosie, something is burning up here.
00:48:23Is that a fake mustache?
00:48:25Yeah, what's with your accent?
00:48:26Shut up.
00:48:27Fine, fine.
00:48:28Just come as soon as you can.
00:48:30I mean, did you rip this off?
00:48:31What did you expect us to do?
00:48:33Goodbye.
00:48:35Why would you eat something that the guy you just robbed gave you?
00:48:41Ms. Strauss, is there something I can help you with?
00:48:44Oh, no, thanks for asking, dear.
00:48:47Don't worry, you 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 become.
00:48:55Rosie, something is definitely burning.
00:48:58You fucking...
00:49:03This is plastic, by the way.
00:49:07Doo-doo-doo.
00:49:19Sorry I'm late.
00:49:20Oh, well, look who showed up just in time for dessert.
00:49:25Pluto, you remember Mr. and Mrs. Whitfield and their daughter Olivia?
00:49:31Oh, 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.
00:50:00Olivia, please.
00:50:02What do you want?
00:50:04Let me explain.
00:50:06Do you even speak French?
00:50:08I know like five words.
00:50:10I hate you.
00:50:11No, please let me explain.
00:50:13I didn't mean for this to happen like this.
00:50:15Leave me alone.
00:50:17Excuse me.
00:50:18Sorry to interrupt, but Claire and I have an announcement to make.
00:50:23What is this?
00:50:25First of all, I'd like to apologize.
00:50:28I'd like to apologize for my appearance.
00:50:31I 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 going to marry this guy?
00:50:56Pluto, don't be rude.
00:50:57Claire, what the hell are you thinking?
00:50:58Pluto, shut up. Seriously.
00:51:00This guy's a douchebag. He just wants our money.
00:51:02Pluto, nobody cares what you think.
00:51:04I can't believe you're going to fall for his lies.
00:51:06What'd you say?
00:51:07You heard me, cock boy.
00:51:09My lies?
00:51:13Look, 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.
00:51:21What?
00:51:22He lies all the damn time.
00:51:24Shut up.
00:51:25Pluto, well, that's a lie right there. That'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. I've seen him do it.
00:51:39He screws with people and he gets off on it.
00:51:42Lie after lie after lie.
00:51:45Is that right?
00:51:46No, that's not how it was with you, okay? Everything was true with you.
00:51:49Right, because 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? Everything was true.
00:51:58Mrs. Strauss, thank you very much for a wonderful Thanksgiving.
00:52:01Congratulations on your engagement.
00:52:04I'm not feeling that great, so I'm going to 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. Can I see you tomorrow?
00:52:16Why would I see you tomorrow?
00:52:19I don't even know who you are.
00:52:21Okay.
00:52:40Well, congratulations, sweetheart.
00:52:42I'm so happy for you both.
00:52:44Thanks, Mom.
00:52:45Way to go, douchebag.
00:52:51I love you.
00:52:53I love you too.
00:53:21And now, baby, I'm nothing without you
00:53:32And 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
00:54:03Well, I tried walking alone
00:54:08Out in the cold
00:54:13Storm winds blowing black and blue
00:54:19But when that moment arrived
00:54:24With your lips touching mine
00:54:27It got me through
00:54:31You got me through
00:54:35So pick a cloud in the sky
00:54:41Or a bird humming by
00:54:45And curl in closer beneath its tune
00:54:51For if you can't find your sunny way
00:54:56You can take comfort in your pain
00:55:01Cause, baby, I'm nothing
00:55:05Sweet baby, I'm nothing
00:55:09My baby, I'm nothing
00:55:15Without you
00:55:26Now, he was a douchebag.
00:55:29I know.
00:55:30Do you?
00:55:32Days like this make you remember.
00:55:35Well, it's about time you should.
00:55:40You've been mourning a man who's been dead for years.
00:55:44A man you were never particularly fond of, as I recall.
00:55:47He was a jerk.
00:55:49All the time.
00:55:50All the time.
00:55:53You married him.
00:55:54Well, he was really very handsome, and I thought I could change him.
00:56:01But that man never cared about anybody but himself, and you know it.
00:56:09Still, we come here every year because he was a person,
00:56:14and he died, and it's the right thing to do.
00:56:19And he left us with financial security for the rest of our lives,
00:56:23and we should be thankful for that.
00:56:26I hate the money.
00:56:28You'd be whistling a different tune if you didn't have it.
00:56:33Although sometimes I wish we didn't have any of it.
00:56:38You wouldn't act the way you do.
00:56:44I'm sorry.
00:56:48I've come to a decision.
00:56:51You 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.
00:57:06For God's sake, grow up.
00:57:08Be the man in the family, something your father could never do.
00:57:12Just take 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.
00:57:32I talked with the man who worked with him years ago.
00:57:35He said he could set you up with a job starting next week.
00:57:38There, handed you on a platter, as usual.
00:57:44I expect you there.
00:57:47I want you to at least try.
00:57:49You owe me that much, Paul.
00:57:51Oh, and while we're on the subject, Paul, that's your fucking name.
00:57:57I'm your mother. I birthed you. I named you.
00:58:01If anything else, I should be left with that.
00:58:05What is this Pluto baloney, anyway?
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.
00:58:16I mean, he was 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.
00:58:29Well, cut the shit out.
00:58:50I hate the sight of your face.
00:59:14I hate the sight of your face, too.
00:59:19Really?
00:59:32Mushrooms?
00:59:34I hate mushrooms.
00:59:39Why not?
00:59:41What's the first thing about acting, then?
00:59:44Well, I love mushrooms.
00:59:49And I will eat that plate for you, because I think you could be great.
00:59:56Especially at this.
00:59:59Okay.
01:00:01Okay?
01:00:02Sure.
01:00:03Where is this thing happening?
01:00:04Festivals in Brooklyn.
01:00:05No, no, no. I don't do other bureaus.
01:00:08I'll get you your own place. My treat.
01:00:10Really?
01:00:11Sure.
01:00:12Wow, thank you.
01:00:15And I don't care if you're marrying Claire, don't ever call me brother.

01:02:30Okay.
01:02:31Okay.
01:02:32Okay.
01:02:33Okay.
01:02:34Okay.
01:02:35a joint. I know this will probably be your last session so I figured hey for
01:02:41old time's sake. I'm good thanks though. Really? Yeah yeah I have a dress
01:02:49rehearsal after this so I'm trying to focus and whatnot. Oh. Plus I have work in
01:02:53the morning. Well that's great because I think I rolled a really terrible one.
01:02:59You know you need to take a step back and look how much has changed. You're
01:03:04not even doing what brought you into my office in the first place. You're a
01:03:07different person. You're you're a different person than the man I met six
01:03:10months ago. Aren't you proud of yourself? Look
01:03:18I liked doing what I was doing. It was fun.
01:03:25It's just that the excuse is just not good enough anymore. Your father? I'm just
01:03:33pissed 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. Plus he's getting what he
01:03:43always wanted. Which is what? I'm at his office working for his company that he
01:03:49built. Oh he would just love it. Even after he's dead he's still making me do
01:03:54things I don't want to do.
01:03:58I remember a few weeks after he died I called my mom at the house to see how
01:04:05she'd been. You know check in on her. And the voicemail picked up.
01:04:11And it was still his voice. They hadn't changed the machine yet.
01:04:15And I hung up quick.
01:04:20And then I called back. And then I called back again.
01:04:26I kept listening to his voice over and over again. God it felt like I hadn't
01:04:32heard it in so long. It almost felt like I'd never heard it at all before.
01:04:39Eventually Rosie picked up. Apparently I woke her up from a nap.
01:04:48I've made a lot of mistakes.
01:04:52I'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.
01:05:08I regret what I did to that girl.
01:05:14Well maybe she'll come to the play. Yeah maybe. She hasn't reserved a ticket yet.
01:05:20There's still time. I got mine. I think you'll like it. It's pretty good.
01:05:25Pretty fucked up though so I hope you aren't offended easily.
01:05:30And now ladies and gentlemen, a comedy.
01:06:26Hey awesome man. Thanks Greg. No seriously I'm really impressed.
01:06:31Thank you so much for coming. I was hoping Olivia would show up.
01:06:34Maybe you just missed her. Yeah yeah maybe.
01:06:37Mom. Paul. Oh you were wonderful.
01:06:41Now I don't actually know if you give flowers to men so if you don't want to
01:06:44take them I can hold them for you. No it's fine.
01:06:47Well really I am so proud of you. Mom you remember Dr. Dancing.
01:06:51Well at least Greg is fine. Hey whatever the hell your name is you did so good.
01:06:57Thank you. She didn't show up. Yeah she did.
01:06:59She did? Yeah she slipped out before everyone else did.
01:07:02Oh. At least she came. Yeah and who even cares. You were so good.
01:07:06I'm so proud of my boy. Oh and Ben too. I mean that was a great play.
01:07:10Kind of fucked up. Told you. Yeah but cool as shit.
01:07:13Yeah yeah yeah good for him. I gotta go. I have work in the morning.
01:07:18Oh yeah how's that going? You know it's uh it's work.
01:07:21Uh so it's it's fine for now. Well you did great.
01:07:25Thanks. Call me tomorrow. Of course. I'm gonna go have a drink or two. I had like
01:07:28three Red Bull before the play and now I feel like an epileptic. I'm like why?
01:07:32All right buddy. All right I'll see you at home.
01:07:34Kel Bennison congratulations.
01:07:39Everything all right? Everything's great.
01:07:42You're great.
01:08:01Come in. Hi Mrs. Strauss? Paul. Come on in. Right.
01:08:07Oh something came for you. It came to my desk by accident.
01:08:11Just thought I'd bring it on over. Oh sure yeah you can just leave it on the
01:08:14desk. Thanks.
01:08:22I knew your father. Uh yeah yeah I imagine you would have
01:08:27working here. No I really knew him. Had lunch together almost every day for
01:08:3225 years. Well then uh you probably knew him
01:08:37better than I did. I just I just didn't expect to see you
01:08:41here. What? Well from what he always said
01:08:46he always said that uh when he spoke of you that you were destined for better
01:08:50things. Bigger things. Well I guess my father
01:08:53didn't know me that well after all did he?
01:08:55No you see the thing is he asked me made me promise actually
01:09:03that if I ever saw you here if you ever came to work in this building
01:09:08that that I would I would make you leave.
01:09:15Are you firing me? No no I don't have any authority to fire you.
01:09:21I just I didn't want to break a promise to your father. I know you had your
01:09:28differences but he was a good man from what I knew he was. He kept me
01:09:33employed for many years of my life. Put bread on my family's table.
01:09:39He always took care of me and for that I am grateful.
01:09:45So I can'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.
01:10:16It was a real pleasure.
