00:00:00The end of the day
00:00:02The end of the day
00:00:04The end of the day
00:00:06The end of the day
00:00:08The end of the day
00:00:10Neighbors bring food with death
00:00:14And flowers with sickness
00:00:16And little things in between
00:00:20Boo was our neighbor
00:00:22He gave us two soap dolls
00:00:24A broken watch and chain
00:00:28A knife
00:00:30And our lives
00:00:58The end of the day
00:01:02The end of the day
00:01:04The end of the day
00:01:36So what's the deal?
00:01:57Mom didn't believe in lampshades?
00:01:59Give her a break, Jeff.
00:02:00She was really sick before she died.
00:02:06Your mom really lived like this?
00:02:16Mom, what do we say?
00:02:17Her money was in the toilet.
00:02:19Come on, Alex.
00:02:20This place means a lot to me.
00:02:23Hey, I need to make a little speech.
00:02:25Oh, not that.
00:02:27What's that?
00:02:28Mom always used to do that.
00:02:30She used to make these speeches every time we had a visitor.
00:02:32She wouldn't let them leave until she made a speech either.
00:02:35My dear friends.
00:02:36Christ.
00:02:37Tonight, we are gathered in Mom's old house.
00:02:41I know this is probably weird for you boys, being a stranger's house and all.
00:02:46And it's kind of a stranger's house to me too, and I bet for Alex.
00:02:50But we'll be selling this place soon, so for tonight, just one night, it can be a home again.
00:02:59I don't know why I feel weird tonight.
00:03:01Sober and tipsy, I guess.
00:03:03I miss Mom a little, and this is her place of routine and care and love.
00:03:12So, we're here.
00:03:15It's a little work then.
00:03:17Are you sure that was necessary?
00:03:19If you miss her so much, that'd probably upset you.
00:03:21Nope.
00:03:24It's hot in here.
00:03:26Right, so can we eat now?
00:03:28Because I'm getting the Dolman crunches.
00:03:30What?
00:03:30You know, when you get hungry and you got that grinding in your abdomen, that's what this is.
00:03:36Dolman crunches.
00:03:37Is it really that hard to just say abdomen?
00:03:40Dolman saves time.
00:03:41Everybody knows what a Dolman is.
00:03:52Man, this is a guy's apartment.
00:03:53TGI Friday's quesadillas and White Castle cheeseburgers!
00:04:06Sounds just like her.
00:04:08Mama's always one of the guys.
00:04:10And she loved those Dillas.
00:04:12Dillas?
00:04:13Quesadillas?
00:04:15If she can say Dillas, I can say Dolman.
00:04:17Enough.
00:04:19You guys could eat the junk food.
00:04:20I'm going to go to the car and get my groceries and make some gazpacho.
00:04:23I don't know.
00:04:24I don't know.
00:04:49There's a lot of people that try to eat down.
00:04:51Guys, shouldn't we pray before we eat?
00:05:17No!
00:05:19Come on, guys.
00:05:20Mom just died.
00:05:21Steph, you can do one of those little silent prayers.
00:05:35Amen then?
00:05:38You guys are missing out on this gazpacho.
00:05:40Oh my god, I love White Castle.
00:05:43So good for my doemen.
00:05:49So Bruce, we haven't really met.
00:05:52No.
00:05:53How long have you been dating my sister?
00:05:56I don't know, about a hundred years.
00:05:58He means five months.
00:06:00Guys never remember anniversaries.
00:06:02How'd you guys meet?
00:06:04Online.
00:06:05Online.
00:06:06My boss Julia is always telling me how she loves the online world.
00:06:11I guess it really does work.
00:06:14So what do you do?
00:06:15Well, I work at the Mara Inn with Jeff.
00:06:18What's that?
00:06:19It's a small hotel.
00:06:20I'd really rather not talk about work right now.
00:06:23I didn't really ask you, but incidentally what are you doing here?
00:06:27Well, Stephanie told me to bring as many people as I could to help pack up this place.
00:06:32I'm glad I came.
00:06:33What with the White Castle stuff and all.
00:06:35How do you two know each other?
00:06:38From our days in the old schoolyard.
00:06:41Aww, old friends.
00:06:44Do you have a girlfriend, Jeff?
00:06:47Ah, yeah.
00:06:49Still working on that one.
00:06:51Always the holy grail, I guess.
00:06:54That's all the answer I needed, thanks.
00:06:56Now, hold on a minute.
00:06:58Jeff had a little issue he had to deal with.
00:07:01Oh?
00:07:02It's okay.
00:07:03I can tell her myself.
00:07:04Look, in college I had this female friend named Laura.
00:07:08One night we thought it would be a great idea to get drunk and have sex.
00:07:13Which we did.
00:07:14And it was terrible.
00:07:16And we didn't even finish.
00:07:18And afterwards we never talked again.
00:07:21Aww, that's a sad story, Jeff.
00:07:25Were you in love with her?
00:07:30Well, uh, sorry you couldn't swoop in and save the day.
00:07:35So, what do you think of my sister?
00:07:39I like her a lot.
00:07:41She's not too religious for ya?
00:07:43Hey, I really have that done.
00:07:45She really isn't at all.
00:07:47That's cute.
00:07:48Julia told me she thinks so too.
00:07:50I don't think it's the excess of religion that's her problem.
00:07:53I think it's the bubble she lives in.
00:07:55Alex!
00:07:56You know about the last guy she dated?
00:07:58Yes.
00:07:59Homer.
00:08:00They lived together for a few months.
00:08:02I'm totally all cool with that.
00:08:04Yeah, you're just so mad chill.
00:08:06You know how hard that breakup was for her?
00:08:08She could be a tough plate of raw fish when it comes to her emotions.
00:08:12Why don't we talk about something else?
00:08:16What's up, Jeff?
00:08:18I'm gonna take my pants off.
00:08:25What the hell?
00:08:27You didn't need to change the subject that much.
00:08:31Well, it's a little warm in here and these jeans aren't actually that comfortable so I'm gonna loosen up a little bit.
00:08:36Yeah, that's really respectful to my mom's memory, just so you know.
00:08:40Well, look who's talking.
00:08:41She's dead and you're drinking champagne.
00:08:43And you're drinking fructose corn syrup.
00:08:46What the hell's the difference?
00:08:48Okay, okay.
00:08:49Let's try to have some fun.
00:08:50We don't have to be so solemn about this whole thing.
00:08:52What do you mean by fun?
00:08:54Now, the bottles take a bit away from thelow!
00:09:10The steel machine.
00:09:11One double six of them!
00:09:13The
00:09:17I think that was mom punishing us for the dance.
00:09:38Yeah, maybe we should get rolling.
00:09:41Oh come on, let's just get into the chorus!
00:09:43Yeah, but it's almost midnight and some of you have been drinking, so let's just do this before you start falling asleep.
00:09:51Do what, honey? Sorry, but there's no way we're gonna pack up this whole place in one single night.
00:09:56I think you mean looking for the money?
00:09:58Yeah, that's right.
00:10:01Uh, money?
00:10:03Is that why you had us all come here tonight? That's why you wanted guests?
00:10:07What are you guys talking about?
00:10:09I guess I should tell you. Um...
00:10:15I can tell.
00:10:17Mom inherited some bonds from our great aunt, and when we asked her where she put them, she got really embarrassed and basically...
00:10:26Basically she cashed the bonds, hid the money in the house, and forgot where she put it, never found it again.
00:10:33Last we heard, it was still lost.
00:10:36So that's what we're looking for tonight?
00:10:39Yeah. Look, I told you mom had a sense of humor.
00:10:43And a bad memory. Deadly combination those two.
00:10:47But honey, this is silly. You're gonna be selling this place in a few weeks. Just, it'll turn up then.
00:10:52Honey, do you trust moving men? When you move, you don't find things, you lose them. I just wanna do this while we still have the place ourselves.
00:11:01But why do we have to look tonight?
00:11:04I think because she knows I'm leaving for Callie tomorrow.
00:11:07I'll share it with all you guys.
00:11:10Christ, it'd be hard enough to pack up all this stuff, but now we're looking for something?
00:11:16Needle in a haystack!
00:11:19Where do you think it might be?
00:11:21That's a good question, considering she herself didn't know.
00:11:24Alright, how long do we have to stay until?
00:11:28Long as you want.
00:11:30Actually, they were closing that street by the highway, remember?
00:11:33Oh yeah, Washington Avenue is closed until 6am for construction.
00:11:37Did you by any chance have that in mind all along?
00:11:41Maybe. But look, let's just try it out and by 6am you guys can take off.
00:11:49Alright, enough grumbling. There's four of us. Let's just give it a shot.
00:12:00Let's go with that.
00:12:01Let's go with that.
00:13:03Come on, Alex.
00:13:05There's still places to look.
00:13:07Have you ever even seen the money?
00:13:09Nope.
00:13:11We don't even know what we're looking for.
00:13:13This heat just isn't helping.
00:13:15I think...
00:13:29No, yeah, I'm definitely getting tired.
00:13:30Yeah.
00:13:31Let's hold on one more hour because then she's going to get tired and she's going to realize
00:13:35how crazy this is.
00:13:36I can't believe I let you talk me into this all for your friggin' girlfriend.
00:13:40I told you she had a sister.
00:13:41Yeah.
00:13:42You didn't tell me she'd be a bitch, though.
00:13:43What's going on?
00:13:57Hold on.
00:13:58Let me check...
00:13:59Ow!
00:14:01The street lights are out.
00:14:03God, you cannot tell me there's a blackout right now.
00:14:06Yep.
00:14:07I think you've got to circle that answer.
00:14:09The hell?
00:14:09It's not even bad weather outside.
00:14:11Mom said there was one like this five years ago.
00:14:13Probably just at some plant.
00:14:15Did your mom have flashlights?
00:14:16Yep.
00:14:17Oh!
00:14:18Damn it!
00:14:19I think this means my flight's going to be cancelled tomorrow.
00:14:47I'm going to call the airline.
00:14:49If I know anything about the horror genre, and I do, phones will be out.
00:14:59None.
00:15:10And she told me she enjoyed it.
00:15:12She looked right at me, and she said,
00:15:15I like you.
00:15:18You remind me of that guy from YouTube.
00:15:20Jeff, nobody really wants to hear your girl exploits.
00:15:23Speak for yourself, Brucie.
00:15:25Hmm.
00:15:26I think I should make more coffee.
00:15:28The hell with that, Steph.
00:15:30I don't think the power's coming back on tonight.
00:15:32It might.
00:15:33They have round-the-clock people for emergencies like this.
00:15:35Well, whatever.
00:15:37I just think we should go to bed.
00:15:39Uh, I don't know if you guys noticed,
00:15:40but there's only one bed in there,
00:15:42and it's not big enough for all of us, so...
00:15:44No, no, no, no, no.
00:15:46If you two think you're getting the bed because you're the couple,
00:15:48you are wildly mistaken.
00:15:50Guys, wait.
00:15:51Don't you want to look for the money?
00:15:57Scratch that one.
00:15:58Baby, don't be mad.
00:16:00Money would be nice, but we're just not going to find it tonight.
00:16:02Oh, so that's it.
00:16:04You guys are just going to give up after a few minutes?
00:16:07Come on.
00:16:07I told you guys,
00:16:08this is the last chance to really look for the money
00:16:10before we sell the place.
00:16:12Steph, did it ever occur to you
00:16:13that the moving men might need the money more than we do?
00:16:17You've never been generous.
00:16:20Times change.
00:16:22Oh, so you've seen the light, eh?
00:16:24When's the last time you even spoke to me before Mom died?
00:16:28What?
00:16:29How long?
00:16:31How long's it been?
00:16:32I don't know.
00:16:35Christmas, then maybe summer before?
00:16:38Exactly.
00:16:39So if you ever took the time to get to know me a little better,
00:16:42you'd know that I'm actually a pretty generous person.
00:16:45Julia always says whenever you lose something,
00:16:47someone probably needs it more than we do.
00:16:49Cute.
00:16:50Well, before you got saved by Julia,
00:16:52I don't really think that was your philosophy.
00:16:54God, all you two ever do is fight.
00:16:57Maybe we should go back to dancing.
00:16:59That's a great way to put somebody's eye out.
00:17:00Let's just go to sleep.
00:17:02Oh, you guys suck.
00:17:04I get the bed.
00:17:04Jeff, don't take this the wrong way,
00:17:08but you're a complete stranger,
00:17:10and you're not sleeping in my mother's bed.
00:17:12I'm perfectly fine just sleeping right here.
00:17:16I'll do that too.
00:17:17If my flight's not canceled,
00:17:20knock on wood,
00:17:21I'll just get my sleep on the plane.
00:17:24Julia always says she gets her best sleep on planes.
00:17:27God damn it!
00:17:28Would you shut up about Julia?
00:17:30It's like you're in love with her.
00:17:34Yeah, I love Julia as a friend.
00:17:37No, wait a minute.
00:17:44You do love her.
00:17:46You have a little crush.
00:17:48In fact, now that I think about it,
00:17:50every time you've been on a trip,
00:17:51it's been with her.
00:17:52I think you'd better drop that.
00:17:54No, I think you should tell me about it.
00:17:55Steph, Steph, Steph, let go.
00:17:56No, no, I just think it's cute
00:17:57that you have a little crush.
00:17:59My life isn't your business.
00:18:02Got that?
00:18:03Alex, you're cutting me.
00:18:04Hey, hey, get out of my girlfriend.
00:18:07Are you hurt?
00:18:11Her nails stabbed me.
00:18:13This is getting so trippy.
00:18:15Shut up, Jeff.
00:18:19I'm fine.
00:18:20I just...
00:18:22Yeah, she's always been very private
00:18:24about her personal life.
00:18:25I feel like I know her a little better.
00:18:28I'll get you something for that.
00:18:29No, I'll go.
00:18:31This is Mom's chemical box.
00:18:36She used to be a chemist back when she studied.
00:18:39So your mom collected chemicals
00:18:40and White Castle cheeseburgers.
00:18:42I do believe we are just scratching the surface
00:18:44of a secret life here.
00:18:46What's in that chemical box?
00:18:48Uh, three things.
00:18:50Alcohol, cough syrup, and liquid ammonia.
00:18:54There's a combination you don't hear every day.
00:18:56Yeah, I must have missed this
00:18:57when I was looking through the bathroom early.
00:18:58Did you, uh, look through the whole bathroom?
00:19:02Yeah, uh, I'll come back on Monday
00:19:04and help you look.
00:19:05But you're working.
00:19:08I got laid off.
00:19:09What?
00:19:11No, Bruce, don't...
00:19:12And so did Jeff.
00:19:13Oh, God.
00:19:14Jeff!
00:19:17But I don't get it.
00:19:18You were just telling me how much your boss liked you,
00:19:20how you impressed him.
00:19:22I do, but it's a small hotel
00:19:23in the middle of nowhere,
00:19:24so when they gotta downsize,
00:19:25they gotta downsize.
00:19:26Hey, the boss liked me, too.
00:19:28You don't have to brag.
00:19:29Anyway, lowering the overhead meant us.
00:19:31Why didn't you tell me?
00:19:33Because your mom just died,
00:19:34and it's been so frustrating.
00:19:35Like, what am I doing?
00:19:37I'm two years out of college,
00:19:38and I've been wasting them.
00:19:39It's one thing to get fired when you mess up,
00:19:42but these last four months have been a waste
00:19:43just because their business is bad.
00:19:44Hey, I'm mad, too, all right?
00:19:46I invested a lot for those people.
00:19:48I put in days, nights, weekends,
00:19:49all to make ends meet.
00:19:50Now they go and take my ends meet away from me.
00:19:54Which is a really good point.
00:19:57Both of you really need the money right now,
00:19:59and here we are looking for a fortune.
00:20:01Yeah, and we haven't found it yet.
00:20:03What are you saying?
00:20:04I just think it would be something
00:20:06if one of you found it
00:20:07while we weren't looking
00:20:09and ceased to mention it.
00:20:10Ha ha, very funny.
00:20:12You realize the same thing
00:20:13could be said about you.
00:20:14What?
00:20:15You've been out of sight, too,
00:20:16for the past few minutes.
00:20:18Yeah, but I don't have
00:20:19the same incentive you do.
00:20:20Maybe you wanted to buy
00:20:21your girlfriend something.
00:20:23Zing!
00:20:24Listen, Steph, I'm sorry I hurt you.
00:20:26I overreacted.
00:20:28Great, thanks.
00:20:29Now I'm stuck in a dark apartment
00:20:30after midnight bleeding to death.
00:20:32Quit acting.
00:20:33You'll live.
00:20:34Anyway, anything you say
00:20:36about Julia is fine.
00:20:39My life's your life.
00:20:45Great.
00:20:45So while you two make up,
00:20:47I'm taking the bed.
00:20:49Hold it.
00:20:50She's got a point.
00:20:52What's that?
00:20:53Well, all three of you
00:20:55are out of my sight.
00:20:56Any one of you
00:20:56could have found the money.
00:20:59Steph, I'm sorry,
00:21:00but if you're going to accuse me,
00:21:01then you're really pushing it.
00:21:02How the hell could I have
00:21:04pocketed any money
00:21:05when I've had my pants off
00:21:06for the past 90 minutes?
00:21:09You can strip search me
00:21:10if you like.
00:21:11Okay.
00:21:12Okay.
00:21:13Look, I'm sorry.
00:21:15I didn't mean to accuse anyone.
00:21:16I should know better.
00:21:18But it did seem odd
00:21:20that the minute the lights
00:21:21went out,
00:21:21the three of you
00:21:21couldn't care less
00:21:22about a big load of cash.
00:21:23All right.
00:21:24Okay.
00:21:24You know what we'll do?
00:21:26Because we're all getting
00:21:26really grumpy and tired
00:21:28and annoyed with the heat.
00:21:29I suggest we combat all three
00:21:30by each taking a little shower.
00:21:33And by then,
00:21:33hopefully,
00:21:33the lights will be back up.
00:21:34And you'll see how psyched
00:21:36we can be
00:21:37about finding some money.
00:21:39Okay.
00:21:39So while you three do that,
00:21:41I'm taking the bed.
00:21:43Hey, genius.
00:21:43Instead of just one of us
00:21:44taking the bed,
00:21:45why don't we all
00:21:46go sleep together?
00:21:47Now that's an idea.
00:21:49I meant by the bed.
00:21:51Okay.
00:21:52While you three work that out,
00:21:54I'm going to take
00:21:54the first shower.
00:21:55Okay.
00:22:04I can't take this.
00:22:11I thought you were so sleepy.
00:22:13Yeah, well,
00:22:13it's hard to sleep
00:22:14with all this tension
00:22:14in the room.
00:22:15She's not such a good
00:22:16bed partner, is she?
00:22:18Apparently,
00:22:19neither are you.
00:22:20What was that?
00:22:21Hold on, Alex.
00:22:23Why don't we just
00:22:23talk about this?
00:22:24Talk about what?
00:22:25That I have a gay crush?
00:22:26Yeah.
00:22:27Does that make you
00:22:28uncomfortable?
00:22:30No.
00:22:30Does talking about it
00:22:31make you uncomfortable?
00:22:33Kinda.
00:22:33This reminds me
00:22:34of a joke.
00:22:36Jeff, is this going
00:22:37to be another one
00:22:37of your stupid gags?
00:22:39No, no, no, no.
00:22:40That girl who told me
00:22:41I look like the guy
00:22:42from YouTube,
00:22:42she told me this one.
00:22:43Yeah, she's a regular
00:22:44bull too.
00:22:45Okay, okay.
00:22:47What does a gay cow say?
00:22:52What?
00:22:55Hey.
00:23:00I think you've
00:23:01talked enough.
00:23:01Jeff, that joke
00:23:02didn't even make sense.
00:23:03Because cows eat hay?
00:23:06Yeah, I picked
00:23:07that up.
00:23:11What I don't get
00:23:12is why your cow
00:23:13is a stereotypical
00:23:14gay man.
00:23:15Cows are female.
00:23:17Yeah, but this cow
00:23:18is male.
00:23:20Then it's a bull.
00:23:22No, but in the world
00:23:26of the joke,
00:23:27the cow is male.
00:23:29So the audience
00:23:30of your joke
00:23:31needs to know
00:23:32that you're in some
00:23:32sci-fi fictional world?
00:23:36Um,
00:23:37I said
00:23:38gay cow.
00:23:42Then I assumed
00:23:43it's a lesbian cow.
00:23:45No,
00:23:45the cow
00:23:46is not a lesbian.
00:23:47The cow
00:23:48is gay.
00:23:49Now see,
00:23:49that is a sentence
00:23:50I never thought
00:23:51I would hear.
00:23:52A woman can be
00:23:53called gay as well.
00:23:55Yes,
00:23:55but when I hear
00:23:57that someone
00:23:57is gay,
00:23:58I associate that
00:23:59with male homosexuality,
00:24:01not female.
00:24:02Why don't you just
00:24:03avoid this whole
00:24:04gender dispute
00:24:04by saying a gay bull?
00:24:06Because bulls
00:24:07don't eat hay.
00:24:09Actually,
00:24:09come to think of it,
00:24:10do cows even eat hay?
00:24:11See,
00:24:11I think that might
00:24:12just be horses.
00:24:14Crisis joke
00:24:14really backfired on me.
00:24:18Next.
00:24:19I'll go.
00:24:21I'm getting booed
00:24:22off stage here.
00:24:26So, Steph,
00:24:27when you hear
00:24:28a gay cow,
00:24:29what does that
00:24:29make you think of?
00:24:31Did you just
00:24:33call me
00:24:33sister cow?
00:24:34Oh, no.
00:24:35I know exactly
00:24:36what he's talking about.
00:24:49Okay,
00:24:50would you guys
00:24:50tell your mom
00:24:50to stop haunting
00:24:51this house?
00:24:54You know,
00:24:55I barely saw mom
00:24:55during Christmas.
00:24:57Yeah,
00:24:57what happened?
00:24:59I don't know.
00:25:00Mother-daughter junk.
00:25:02Guess it'll never
00:25:03get worked out now.
00:25:05And no,
00:25:06it had nothing
00:25:06to do with my crush.
00:25:08Favorite topic
00:25:09of the evening.
00:25:11You know,
00:25:12how she always used to say
00:25:13I'm so incorrigible.
00:25:17I was incorrigible.
00:25:19I got that from her.
00:25:22In college,
00:25:23I had all these friends,
00:25:24both male and female,
00:25:27don't get any ideas.
00:25:28Remember what I used to do
00:25:31during my breaks?
00:25:33Yeah,
00:25:34you stopped coming home
00:25:36for Christmas
00:25:37or Thanksgiving
00:25:38or whatever,
00:25:39found someone else
00:25:40to spend it with.
00:25:41And it wasn't even
00:25:42anything against mom.
00:25:44I wasn't even mad at her.
00:25:46They were like my family.
00:25:49This isn't even pre-Julia.
00:25:50This was Doug,
00:25:52Mark,
00:25:53and Mia.
00:25:53Now they're just somewhere.
00:25:56I don't even know where.
00:25:57I think Mark's in Connecticut
00:25:59and Doug's somewhere up north.
00:26:01Yeah, boo-hoo.
00:26:02So you got post-college depression
00:26:04and you missed your friends.
00:26:05So does everybody.
00:26:07There's no reason
00:26:08to leave your family.
00:26:09Don't.
00:26:09No, wait.
00:26:11I deserve that.
00:26:13You've even been nice enough
00:26:14to come out
00:26:15and help your girlfriend
00:26:15through this tough time.
00:26:17And it wasn't even
00:26:18your mom who died.
00:26:20And you've just gotten laid.
00:26:22What?
00:26:22What?
00:26:24Sorry.
00:26:25I was going to say laid off.
00:26:27And then
00:26:28I stopped at laid
00:26:29and it was funnier.
00:26:32Have you, though?
00:26:33What?
00:26:34Slept together.
00:26:36That's an inappropriate question
00:26:37to ask anybody,
00:26:38let alone a family member.
00:26:40Uh, Bruce, she knows.
00:26:42I told her on the phone.
00:26:43What?
00:26:44We're girls.
00:26:45We talk about this stuff.
00:26:47I just wanted to see
00:26:48what you'd say.
00:26:50Thanks, genius.
00:26:51Calling me bluff.
00:26:52Oh, I'm incorrigible.
00:26:56Alright, who's up?
00:26:57I kept it quick.
00:26:58There isn't much hot water.
00:27:00I'll go.
00:27:01So Voltaire's back.
00:27:03Or her boyfriend, I mean.
00:27:05What's wrong with you?
00:27:07What?
00:27:07You're chewing everyone out
00:27:09like you've got something
00:27:09to be defensive about.
00:27:11And please,
00:27:12don't give me another soliloquy
00:27:13about your college friends.
00:27:15I fight back
00:27:16when everyone gangs up on me.
00:27:18And anyway,
00:27:19what was your deal with Mom?
00:27:21Nothing.
00:27:22Perfect daughter.
00:27:23You were always insecure with her.
00:27:26I guess so.
00:27:27She put tons of pressure
00:27:29on both of us.
00:27:30But frankly,
00:27:31it didn't affect me.
00:27:32I'd wipe my ass of her.
00:27:33Quite well, I might add.
00:27:35But you.
00:27:36You put up with her.
00:27:38She drove your boyfriends away.
00:27:40And that's why
00:27:40you never introduced
00:27:41this one to her.
00:27:43And now,
00:27:44you're perky
00:27:44because she died.
00:27:46And you want to look for money.
00:27:47Are you done?
00:27:50Guess so.
00:27:51You know,
00:27:52if I believed you,
00:27:53I'd be offended
00:27:54by all the crackpot logic
00:27:55spewing out of you.
00:27:56But I don't
00:27:57because I know you.
00:27:59And you've always been tough,
00:28:01but you're just as insecure as I am.
00:28:03Know how to get under my skin.
00:28:05Bravo.
00:28:07You know,
00:28:08I thought we'd do something together
00:28:09this weekend
00:28:10since we never see each other.
00:28:13Don't worry.
00:28:14I learned my lesson.
00:28:19Boo!
00:28:21You call this a cat fight?
00:28:23What cat fight?
00:28:24You two have been
00:28:26at each other's throats
00:28:27all night.
00:28:27Fight already!
00:28:28We have more class than that.
00:28:30Yeah,
00:28:31we're sisters.
00:28:32We really love each other
00:28:33under all this hostility.
00:28:34Well,
00:28:35we'll see about that.
00:28:36Yeah,
00:28:37sure,
00:28:37sure,
00:28:37sure,
00:28:38sure,
00:28:38sure.
00:28:38All I know
00:28:39is there's a long night
00:28:41ahead of us.
00:28:41And this fight,
00:28:43it's not over.
00:28:44That's for certain.
00:28:46It might not be,
00:28:47but I think I hit the nail
00:28:48right on the head
00:28:48with you,
00:28:49Steph.
00:28:49Well,
00:28:50since you're so critical,
00:28:51what is your advice?
00:28:52My advice to you
00:28:53and to Jeff
00:28:55and to Bruce
00:28:56is to get your heads
00:28:57out of the toilet
00:28:58and realize that life happens.
00:29:01Mothers die,
00:29:03boyfriends get fired,
00:29:04and people drink champagne.
00:29:07Good things happen
00:29:08and bad things happen.
00:29:09There's no real way
00:29:10life is supposed to be.
00:29:12Thank you for the
00:29:15Ferris Bueller monologue.
00:29:17No,
00:29:17it's true.
00:29:19Maybe I've been a bitch tonight,
00:29:20but out of all of you,
00:29:21I'm the only one happy.
00:29:23Amen.
00:29:31Guess I'm up.
00:29:32She's nuts.
00:29:41What happened?
00:29:43My sister just humiliated me
00:29:45by showing what a complete
00:29:46whack job she is.
00:29:47I thought you said
00:29:48this was going to be
00:29:48a fun night.
00:29:49Did I say that?
00:29:51Yeah,
00:29:51you did,
00:29:52Bruce.
00:29:52Aw,
00:29:53Jeff,
00:29:53come on over,
00:29:54help me and my girlfriend,
00:29:55move her dead mom's stuff.
00:29:56It'll be totally awesome.
00:29:57We'll spend the whole night
00:29:58just chit-chatting away,
00:29:59eating and drinking,
00:30:00and having a good time.
00:30:01Yeah,
00:30:01it's been a real trip
00:30:02to the fun house.
00:30:02Thanks.
00:30:03Well,
00:30:03I didn't know the lights
00:30:04were going to go out.
00:30:05Everything was just fine
00:30:06before that happened.
00:30:07That's been the least
00:30:08of tonight's problems.
00:30:09Things change
00:30:10when you're marooned
00:30:11like this in the dark.
00:30:12You change.
00:30:13It's like being in the jungle.
00:30:14This place is about
00:30:15as filthy as the jungle.
00:30:17You think it's the dark
00:30:18that's turning my sister
00:30:19into a bitch?
00:30:20Well,
00:30:20let me give you
00:30:21a good example.
00:30:22Jeff,
00:30:22you may want to cover
00:30:23your ears for this.
00:30:24No,
00:30:25there's no covering ears here.
00:30:26I mean,
00:30:27Alex already humiliated me
00:30:28in front of him,
00:30:29so what humiliating
00:30:29baby calm down.
00:30:31I'm waiting.
00:30:33Okay,
00:30:34so let's just say this.
00:30:36Would you ever sell your body?
00:30:38No,
00:30:38absolutely not.
00:30:39Okay,
00:30:40but now imagine
00:30:41that you're broke,
00:30:42homeless,
00:30:42and whatever,
00:30:43you name it.
00:30:44Now would you?
00:30:46I'm sure plenty
00:30:47of homeless people
00:30:48face that conundrum
00:30:49every day.
00:30:49But would you?
00:30:50No.
00:30:51Would you?
00:30:53Are you kidding?
00:30:54I don't even need
00:30:55to be homeless.
00:30:56The point is,
00:30:57when you're living
00:30:58in the dark,
00:30:59you change.
00:31:00You didn't prove
00:31:02anything.
00:31:03Jeff didn't have
00:31:03any morals
00:31:04to begin with,
00:31:04and I did.
00:31:05Well,
00:31:05you wait a couple
00:31:06more hours in the dark,
00:31:07see if your answer changes.
00:31:11Let's say you're right.
00:31:13What bothers me
00:31:14is the best example
00:31:15you can come up with
00:31:16is one that degrades women.
00:31:17I don't see how
00:31:18it's degrading to women.
00:31:20Would you sell
00:31:21your body to a man?
00:31:24Now you see my point.
00:31:25Hi, gang.
00:31:32I think we're all awake now.
00:31:33Fantastic.
00:31:34And I
00:31:35am out of here.
00:31:46Where are you going?
00:31:47Face it, Steph.
00:31:49The lights aren't coming
00:31:49back on anytime soon.
00:31:51We're not going to find
00:31:52a treasure chest
00:31:52and all this junk.
00:31:53I don't even want
00:31:54to know what's living
00:31:55in that kitchen.
00:31:56And I'm sick of
00:31:56hanging around here
00:31:57with all this
00:31:57Tennessee Williams stuff.
00:32:03And the fact that
00:32:04your mom is haunting
00:32:05the place right now?
00:32:06Really not helping.
00:32:08Yeah, but you can't
00:32:09go home, though.
00:32:10Remember,
00:32:10Washington Avenue
00:32:10is closed till 6 a.m.
00:32:12I'll get a motel room
00:32:13and get some sleep.
00:32:14You know, honey,
00:32:15that doesn't sound like
00:32:16that bad of an idea.
00:32:17Yeah, but all the motels
00:32:18around here will be
00:32:18part of the blackout, too.
00:32:20I will walk five towns
00:32:21over if I have to.
00:32:23Wait.
00:32:24I know I've been
00:32:25really difficult tonight
00:32:26to all three of you
00:32:26and I'm sorry.
00:32:28But going out driving
00:32:29in the middle of the night
00:32:29with all the lights out
00:32:30is probably not the best idea.
00:32:33You had plans to come here
00:32:34and stay the night.
00:32:35Let's call a truce.
00:32:39Nope.
00:32:41Wait.
00:32:42She's right.
00:32:43And we owe it to Steph
00:32:44to at least look for this
00:32:45morning until 6 a.m.
00:32:47This night's going to
00:32:48put us all in therapy.
00:32:49Look, I don't have a job
00:32:51and come tomorrow
00:32:52I have no idea
00:32:52what I'm doing
00:32:53for the rest of my life.
00:32:54I don't want to sound greedy,
00:32:56but I could use
00:32:57a little money.
00:32:59So I'd prefer
00:32:59if we didn't leave here
00:33:00until we found it.
00:33:01You know, Bruce,
00:33:03when you say that
00:33:04you got fired,
00:33:05you do remind me
00:33:05that I was fired, too.
00:33:09All right.
00:33:10Let's keep searching.
00:33:45All right.
00:33:57Enough putting off
00:33:58the inevitable.
00:33:59What?
00:34:00The books.
00:34:02It's more of a mom thing
00:34:03to hide your things
00:34:04in your books.
00:34:05Knew this was coming.
00:34:10Okay.
00:34:11Oh, my God.
00:34:12I'll be right back.
00:34:13I'll be right back.
00:34:16All right.
00:34:47How convenient of your mother to have collected every single book under the sun.
00:35:15It wasn't her fault. Mom had a boyfriend for a while who used to give her books. She used to joke it was a compulsion.
00:35:23So in short, your mother collected books, chemicals, and White Castle cheeseburgers.
00:35:29And Dillas. Don't forget my Dillas.
00:35:32Well, she did live here for 12 years. It's part of the American experience. Collecting a lot of stuff.
00:35:4312 years? Jeez. That's more than half my life.
00:35:47Let's close the book on that chapter. No pun intended stuff.
00:35:52No, but I mean, this is where I learned to play the cello.
00:35:57And I don't know, that window over there is where I first became religious.
00:36:03A window made you religious?
00:36:12When dawn comes, you'll see what I mean.
00:36:15Christ, here comes another sermon.
00:36:16I mean, it's not like it happened one day and I got saved, but just years and years of walking by this window every morning when the light shines in.
00:36:27Little rays, you know, beams, golden beams, like someone wants to shine in on you.
00:36:38It made me wonder why we had day and night and green and brown and leaves on the trees and the smell.
00:36:49Just a sweet, wild and lonely smell that just, just gets in your mind.
00:36:58Made me want to climb mountains.
00:37:03Well, when dawn comes, you'll see what I mean.
00:37:12That's not really being religious, Seth.
00:37:15What?
00:37:15You had a quasi-mystical response to nature.
00:37:21I've had that too.
00:37:22It makes you wonder what life's about.
00:37:25Why you're here.
00:37:27You just don't understand.
00:37:29No, I do.
00:37:30Do you know what nirvana is?
00:37:34And yes, rest in peace, Kobe.
00:37:36And that's not the nirvana I'm referring to.
00:37:38I mean the nirvana in Buddhism.
00:37:41I'm not Buddhist.
00:37:43It's a state of not wanting anything.
00:37:45Complete bliss.
00:37:46You had your nirvana.
00:37:48Yeah, I heard there's like two sects of Buddhism, right?
00:37:51Yeah, I studied all this in college.
00:37:53The first one sees Buddha sort of as a teacher, someone to follow, and the other one more as a god.
00:37:59Someone to worship.
00:38:00I mean, people just really like having gods.
00:38:03You just haven't experienced what I have.
00:38:06Oh yeah, you've testified to the Holy Spirit.
00:38:09Very much.
00:38:09Yeah, so tell me this.
00:38:12Why are you having sex with your boyfriend over here?
00:38:14But you're just a harpy about sex, aren't you?
00:38:18No, no.
00:38:19I'm cool.
00:38:20I'm real cool.
00:38:21Alright, alright, alright.
00:38:22How about this?
00:38:23How about no more repressed hostility?
00:38:26From now on, why don't we all just speak openly?
00:38:28Yeah, if somebody asks you a question about sex, you just answer it.
00:38:31That's not exactly what I meant.
00:38:34No, I'll answer your question, Alex.
00:38:37Making love can be very romantic, and I happen to be in love with Bruce.
00:38:42Yeah, adorable, but from a dogmatic point of view.
00:38:45Yes, you're right.
00:38:47Lust is considered wrong, but I disagree with that.
00:38:50It's unrealistic to tell a couple not to have sex.
00:38:53I mean, we've all been in serious relationships, right?
00:38:57You just...
00:38:58That has nothing to do with what I experienced by the window.
00:39:01Exactly.
00:39:02Spirituality and dogmatic religion have nothing to do with nothing.
00:39:05And you've proven that just as sure as you are horny.
00:39:07You're being way too clinical here.
00:39:10Who was your first lay?
00:39:11What?
00:39:13Who was your first lay?
00:39:15Okay, well if we're going to volunteer our sexual histories here, you're next.
00:39:19Fair game.
00:39:20Okay, I've only ever slept with Stephanie.
00:39:25Could you get it up the first time?
00:39:27Okay, you stooped to a new low.
00:39:30Okay, how many people have you had sex with?
00:39:33Zero.
00:39:34What?
00:39:36I've never had sex with anyone, male or female.
00:39:39Really?
00:39:40But Alex, you're older than I am.
00:39:42What can I say?
00:39:42I've been confused.
00:39:44Yeah, you're a basket case.
00:39:46You haven't said a single thing that's made sense all night.
00:39:48I guess I'm having a lesbian cow moment.
00:39:50I still don't get what that means.
00:39:52You stop making fun of my joke.
00:39:54I forgot you were even here, Jeff.
00:39:56Oh no.
00:39:57You stay right there.
00:39:58You are one vicious bitch.
00:40:00I'm playing nice.
00:40:01I haven't yelled at you at all in two hours.
00:40:03I mean it.
00:40:04You stay right there.
00:40:06Did it ever occur to you that your joke is offensive to both lesbians and cattle?
00:40:10Well, if you were openly gay, I would understand maybe why you take such issue with this mindless
00:40:16joke, but you don't even know who you are.
00:40:17What's that supposed to mean?
00:40:19It means you're in the closet and you're too confused to know even how far back.
00:40:23He's right, Alex.
00:40:24You are deep in the closet.
00:40:26You are so far back, you're where the snow and the lampposts are.
00:40:30That's a wardrobe or literary scholar.
00:40:32The point being, are you a lessee or not?
00:40:37I don't know.
00:40:38I haven't really thought about it.
00:40:39Oh, please.
00:40:40I don't buy that for a second.
00:40:42What, are you going to assault me now like you assaulted your sister?
00:40:45Is that going to happen every time we talk about this?
00:40:47I've just never put much thought into it.
00:40:49Well, you sure have put a lot of thought into everything else, like how to break all three
00:40:52of us.
00:40:53Maybe you're the one who can't get it up.
00:40:55Really, genius?
00:40:56I can't get it up?
00:40:57Do I need to teach you about the female anatomy?
00:40:59Or were you too busy not getting that while you were doing my sister?
00:41:03No, he's right.
00:41:05You've never done it and your one crush is unattainable.
00:41:08You're the impotent one.
00:41:11Well.
00:41:15Checkmate?
00:41:18Man, I should feel vindictive now, but I just feel awkward.
00:41:23How about we make friends?
00:41:25No, I don't trust any of you, particularly you.
00:41:28Why, because I told a stupid joke?
00:41:30Yes.
00:41:32Whoa.
00:41:34Okay, there is definitely some kind of ghost in here.
00:41:39What's your Julia, Jeff?
00:41:42What?
00:41:43You're not making any sense.
00:41:45Sorry, lesbian cow moment.
00:41:47But no, I'm asking a serious question.
00:41:50What's your Julia?
00:41:51Julia?
00:41:51We all know what my Julia is.
00:41:53It's been exposed for the whole world to see.
00:41:55But what's your Julia?
00:41:56Julia, I know what it is.
00:42:00It's not just one girl.
00:42:02It's the whole lot of them.
00:42:04It's because you can't get any.
00:42:06What?
00:42:07What are you talking about?
00:42:08You're not making any sense.
00:42:10You look like the guy on YouTube is the best you could get.
00:42:13And I've heard these aren't even the most successful of your exploits.
00:42:16So, in truth, you're no different than me.
00:42:20Dumber?
00:42:21Yes.
00:42:22Lacking in personal sanitation?
00:42:24Yes.
00:42:25But sexually quite impotent.
00:42:27So I think you should join me on the floor of shame over here.
00:42:29Jeff is nowhere near as bad as you.
00:42:32Well, I like to think of biting wit as a virtue.
00:42:36Unless you mean that somehow I should be ashamed of having a gay crush.
00:42:39Oh, well, at least you're actually saying the word now.
00:42:42What do you know?
00:42:43You men walk around with your shirts and pants off and think that you're entitled to everything on earth.
00:42:49Wow.
00:42:50I guess it's true what they say about lesbians aiding men.
00:42:53Oh, believe me, sweetie.
00:42:55That part of my personality has been in play long ago.
00:43:02So, should we go back to looking for the money?
00:43:05You and your stupid money.
00:43:07I never want to hear the word money again after tonight.
00:43:10Look, we're all cranky from lack of sleep.
00:43:14Therefore, I suggest we all take a nap.
00:43:17It'll be daylight in a few hours anyway.
00:43:19I have a flight to catch tomorrow.
00:43:21Unless it's canceled.
00:43:23Maybe they'll let me keep the rental car for another day.
00:43:25Maybe they'll tell you where to put it.
00:43:28What was that?
00:43:29I said maybe they'll tell you where to get putting...
00:43:31I'm sorry.
00:43:32I was just having a lesbian cow moment.
00:43:37Well, I'm going to take a nap.
00:43:39I don't even care about the bed.
00:43:42Hear, hear.
00:43:44Come on.
00:43:49I'm really not that tired.
00:44:01I mean, I knew we'd be up tonight.
00:44:04Well, we had enough of an adventure tonight.
00:44:06Look, I guess I should apologize for my sister.
00:44:16What the holy hell is wrong with her?
00:44:18I don't know.
00:44:19I mean, I knew she was aggressive,
00:44:21but I've never seen her lash out at a complete stranger like that.
00:44:25I guess you really had a nerve tonight.
00:44:26Well, you started it.
00:44:27You were the one who spotted the crush.
00:44:30I can't sleep.
00:44:38This bed is uncomfortable.
00:44:39Fine, don't sleep.
00:44:40Just let me rest.
00:44:44I know one thing we like to do when we can't sleep.
00:44:48But tonight's probably not the best night for that.
00:44:51I'll change that in a few seconds.
00:44:53Close your eyes.
00:45:17Close your eyes.
00:45:23Is that what I think it is?
00:45:33Yep.
00:45:34What are you doing?
00:45:35Did you find the money?
00:45:37You're kidding me.
00:45:38Did you find the money and not tell me?
00:45:40With all due respect, you have a good motive for not doing so.
00:45:42You know that's not possible.
00:45:43Where would I hide it?
00:45:44In my ass?
00:45:45I just want to be sure.
00:45:50Get out of here.
00:45:53Gotcha.
00:45:56Okay.
00:45:58You made me wet myself.
00:45:59That's great.
00:46:00Thanks.
00:46:01You know, I know you're not going to murder me though.
00:46:03Oh, yeah?
00:46:04Because you're too religious.
00:46:05Uh-huh.
00:46:05Yeah, well, what can I say?
00:46:07Being in the dark changes your morals.
00:46:13So, you got to tell me what's going on?
00:46:16You know Homer left me.
00:46:29Yeah, like seven months ago.
00:46:31Am I, like, excess baggage?
00:46:32No, you're great.
00:46:35It's just...
00:46:37He took everything.
00:46:39It's like, I got home one day and him and half my stuff were gone and he never answered
00:46:48his phone again.
00:46:49He even took my cello, which he doesn't play, just to hurt me, I guess.
00:46:55I could really use the money right now.
00:47:00And it doesn't help that I hate my job and my boss.
00:47:05Idiot bitch makes me get on the floor to fix the firewire cables.
00:47:09I mean, I wish...
00:47:12I wish my boss was a Julia, you know?
00:47:15Like, if she paid me, gave me the respect I deserve, sure I'd fall in love with the debts.
00:47:22So that's what you want the money?
00:47:24Yes, dammit, I have a bachelor's.
00:47:27I mean, I shouldn't be running office errands and fixing cables.
00:47:32I want to quit and start writing again.
00:47:36I feel trapped, you know?
00:47:38Like, like I'm the one that can't get it up.
00:47:41Well, I'm sorry you feel that way.
00:47:44You know, everybody's first job sucks.
00:47:46I know.
00:47:47But what's the point?
00:47:49They don't give you a position to move up to.
00:47:52Well, you certainly are your sister's sister.
00:47:55I don't know what that means, but I have a feeling you're right.
00:47:59I mean, you can both get angry, you're both dramatic.
00:48:03You both kill me to prove a point.
00:48:07That's just our sense of humor.
00:48:09We definitely inherited that from Mom.
00:48:11Yeah, I think you've inherited more than you'd like to share.
00:48:15But anyway, it doesn't matter.
00:48:19Sorry about your job.
00:48:20You didn't deserve that.
00:48:23I know.
00:48:23That's exactly what my boss said, which just made it sting even worse.
00:48:28But anyway, I guess I'm going to take some pleasure lying here, reminiscing about how much life sucks.
00:48:36The problem is, what do you do when you have to get up?
00:48:41I don't know.
00:48:45You know, I feel like I've known you a lot longer than however many months you said it was.
00:48:50Five.
00:48:52Yeah.
00:48:53You're a lot wiser than your years.
00:48:55I was complimented by your sister.
00:48:58What's that mean?
00:48:59Well, I thought I wondered about you.
00:49:04Well, if it makes you feel any better, you're all I have.
00:49:09I mean, I'm sure we won't see much of Alex after tonight, so you're the only person I'm close to.
00:49:16But you've been good to me.
00:49:22More like a husband than a boyfriend, you know.
00:49:27Boyfriends come and go, and then one day when you're at a friend's house, they come over and steal your friggin' cello.
00:49:35Oh, I'm sure if I had a cello, you wouldn't steal it.
00:49:43Oh, I don't know.
00:49:46What I do know is that life is not a fairy tale.
00:49:51It's been a hard pill to swallow coming from someone who grew up re-named Jane Austen.
00:49:56Oh, I like to think I'm not as bad as all that.
00:49:59You're not.
00:50:00Hey.
00:50:08Why'd you tell your sister about us?
00:50:10What?
00:50:11You know, that we did it.
00:50:14Like you don't tell your guy friends.
00:50:16Yeah, but they're not going to grill you in your face because you couldn't get it up.
00:50:20You did have trouble getting it up at first.
00:50:22Yeah, I know.
00:50:23I mean, it's okay.
00:50:25You just gotta learn the ropes.
00:50:27You just gotta learn how to properly stimulate the little guy.
00:50:31Well, it would...
00:50:32It was kind of cute in retrospect.
00:50:33Yeah, it was.
00:50:36Hey, you know, it wouldn't have been the easiest honeymoon if we'd have waited.
00:50:42Sex has been good for me.
00:50:44I hope it's been good for you, too.
00:50:46Do you think we'll ever get married?
00:50:53You can't ask a question like that after five months.
00:50:56Ugh, I'm not proposing.
00:50:58I just want to see if you can see it working.
00:51:04Honestly?
00:51:06No.
00:51:07Not right now.
00:51:08It's not because I don't care about you, because I do.
00:51:09It's just like, I don't think we're mature.
00:51:14Well, that's kind of my point, that we, all four of us, are not yet mature.
00:51:22What do you mean, immature?
00:51:23No, there's a difference.
00:51:25I mean, I agree with you.
00:51:27I don't want to be a wife, and I love you, and I'm glad we're here sharing a moment.
00:51:38A moment where I say, I don't think I'm going to marry you?
00:51:43No, a moment of honesty.
00:51:48Fine.
00:51:50Fair enough.
00:51:51Let's just share our moment of bliss, then.
00:51:57What is it?
00:52:11Someone hit me.
00:52:12Hello, I've been right here the whole time.
00:52:16What do you mean, hit?
00:52:17Okay, maybe not like hit, but graze me.
00:52:21Jeff, do you honestly think it was me?
00:52:25No.
00:52:26No, I guess, couldn't have been you.
00:52:28I opened my eyes right after it happened, you were sitting right there.
00:52:31So that, that wouldn't make sense.
00:52:33I don't know.
00:52:33I wouldn't put it past Alex to feel up a random person, then jump back.
00:52:37Enough.
00:52:37Look, there's like a ghost in here.
00:52:39Stop saying that.
00:52:40You've been saying that all night.
00:52:41Does it not strike you guys?
00:52:42There's something a little off in this house, and has been ever since we got here.
00:52:45Maybe you've been in the dark too much.
00:52:47No.
00:52:47No, no, no, no, no, no.
00:52:49There is a ghost here.
00:52:50Look at this, I'm bleeding.
00:52:51You did that just now, you nimrod.
00:52:53Look, you're squeezing it.
00:52:54Does it really hurt that bad?
00:52:56I mean, I already got assaulted tonight.
00:52:58Wasn't by a ghost though.
00:53:00Yes, it hurts.
00:53:01I have a wound.
00:53:03Maybe this ghost is the patron saint of lesbian cows.
00:53:09Come on.
00:53:12I'll tend to it.
00:53:22I've always hated this bathroom.
00:53:24Me too.
00:53:25I think some of my first drinks were in here.
00:53:28A little vodka in high school.
00:53:30Every time you visited mom, you always asked to go to the bathroom.
00:53:33Yeah, most of my memories of that toilet are of throwing up in it.
00:53:37Hi, my name is Jeff, and I'm bleeding.
00:53:41Wait a second.
00:53:42Here's the alcohol and the cough syrup.
00:53:47Where's the liquid ammonia?
00:53:52I'm dead serious.
00:53:53It's liquid ammonia.
00:53:54It's a chemical.
00:53:55It's dangerous.
00:53:56Well, I didn't take it.
00:53:58Neither did I.
00:53:59You all showered in here.
00:54:00You were all alone in the bathroom.
00:54:02I mean, unless we showered in the ammonia, I don't know where it would have gone.
00:54:06You can check our pockets if you want.
00:54:08Steph, why would anyone steal ammonia?
00:54:10Was the money in there or something?
00:54:12No, it obviously wouldn't have fit.
00:54:15So what's the big deal?
00:54:16The big deal is that it was here a few minutes ago, and the fact that it's missing is a little creepy.
00:54:25And once again, I'm out of here.
00:54:29You're off again?
00:54:33What, you're going now?
00:54:35I am freaked out enough as it is, and I'm sure that a shrink would find all three of you very special.
00:54:41You don't really think there's a ghost in here, do you?
00:54:43I'm sorry.
00:54:46I'm not shaggy, and I can't be bribed with Scooby Snacks to stay and face a ghost.
00:54:50Zoinks!
00:54:51Wait, Jeff.
00:54:52It's almost five.
00:54:54Washington Avenue will be open at six a.m.
00:54:57There are plenty of other ways to pass an hour.
00:55:01Till six.
00:55:02That's what you agreed to.
00:55:03This has been the longest night in the history of my life.
00:55:13In one night, I've seen the worst out of all three of you, and I just met you two girls.
00:55:18Hey, man.
00:55:18I haven't been that bad.
00:55:21No, that's right.
00:55:22You're exonerated.
00:55:23Cool.
00:55:23Look, I'm bleeding, I'm tired, and I stink.
00:55:27I'm still here.
00:55:28So what do you suggest we do for the remaining hour?
00:55:36Well, we never finish the books.
00:55:39We could give another run at it.
00:55:45Okay.
00:55:47One more hour, all right?
00:55:50Then I'm out of here.
00:55:52See ya.
00:55:52See ya.
00:56:28Come on.
00:56:58it looks really nice out guys you want to go for a walk
00:57:28like someone wants to shine in on you
00:57:39it made me wonder why we had day and night and green and brown and leaves on the trees
00:57:51thank you yeah of course I guess a little spirituality can kill you no idiots driving around at 6am
00:58:19can kill you there we go hello service it's Susan from the Mora Inn uh hi Susan listen I'm sorry if I woke you but I have big news we've been bought by Hilton
00:58:39Hilton? yep just this morning so we're gonna have a lot of new openings and we'll need you to stay on board
00:58:45you oh wow thanks no cancellations guess I'm taking the flight back to Cali
00:58:55so the weather's good things should be fine
00:58:59yes yes it won't be exactly the same job but there's a chance
00:59:04uh what about Jeff
00:59:06so uh I think I'm gonna tell Julie I'm in love with her
00:59:09well we need as many people as we can the whole office structure is gonna change
00:59:13that is absolutely amazing
00:59:15I mean I know her feelings aren't mutual but what's the worst that could happen
00:59:20well you never know
00:59:23might be a little weird but maybe it'll help with friendship
00:59:28what about that girl
00:59:31what girl
00:59:32your friend Laura
00:59:34I haven't talked to her in a very long time
00:59:39I'll do my part if you do yours
00:59:43uhhhh
00:59:45it's not like you're not brave
00:59:49okay
00:59:51all right
00:59:53deal
00:59:55that's amazing the Hilton just up and bought the Mara Inn this morning just so suddenly
01:00:03well Bruce I probably shouldn't be telling you this but there was a fire here last night
01:00:07a fire?
01:00:08relax no one was hurt it was in the ballroom in the middle of the night
01:00:10but it was a blow we didn't eat right now
01:00:12that's incredible
01:00:13well the weird part and this is really the last thing I can tell you Bruce then I gotta go make more calls
01:00:18but the really weird part is how the fire started
01:00:20they explained it to me and it was something I didn't understand about an explosion with middle ions
01:00:25but the bottom line is it all started because a leak of liquid ammonia and no one has any clue where it came from
01:00:36the ammonia is still missing where could it be?
01:00:39it's the ghost man I'm telling you the ghost went and saved our jobs
01:00:43for all I know one of you could have taken the ammonia and started the fire yourself
01:00:47what?
01:00:48what?
01:00:49you were both out of sight for quite some time
01:00:51oh oh yeah actually you're right Alex I um I stole the ammonia
01:00:56drove two hours all the way to the hotel
01:00:58started the fire drove two hours all the way back
01:01:01and then those four hours I was gone nobody noticed
01:01:05well whatever
01:01:07thank you ghost mom
01:01:17you're here
01:01:20well this has been a great night of accomplishing nothing

01:02:24take good care of her
01:02:37Steph I almost forgot
01:02:38you have to give a speech sweetie
01:02:40just like mom did
01:02:41she wouldn't let any visitors leave before she gave a speech
01:02:45alright then
01:02:50I guess I'll make one
01:02:52my dear friends
01:02:57over the last three years
01:03:00I've lost everything
01:03:03my friends are all gone
01:03:06now my mom's gone
01:03:10but it's like I said before
01:03:13life happens
01:03:18there's no way that it's supposed to be
01:03:21I'm getting older now
01:03:27and the best thing I could do is let other people live their lives
01:03:32find my own peace
01:03:35now this place
01:03:38this place is the only link I have to my past
01:03:42but it's also a memento in a different way
01:03:47a museum of childhood
01:03:53and childhood
01:03:55well at least my childhood
01:03:58was built on a false idea
01:04:00of the way life was supposed to be like
01:04:03so I'm happy to let it go
01:04:06I don't know what it meant to you guys
01:04:10maybe it was some kind of
01:04:12temple of torture or something
01:04:15but for one night
01:04:19just
01:04:20one night
01:04:22it was a home again
01:04:25and I was happy to say goodbye to it
01:04:28I guess there's no conclusion I could reach here
01:04:33there are no real conclusions
01:04:38no solid ones
01:04:40maybe tomorrow Julia will kiss me
01:04:43or she'll fire me
01:04:47or she'll never speak to me again
01:04:50it's unavoidable
01:04:54feel a trance right now
01:05:04like the one I was describing earlier
01:05:08the kind that Buddhists call Nirvana
01:05:11I desire nothing
01:05:17and I feel a tiny tinge of gratitude
01:05:22for every moment that I live
01:05:25Amen
01:05:30Amen
01:05:31Amen
01:06:01Amen
01:06:31Your mom really lived like this?
01:06:36Mom would always say her money was in the toilet.
01:07:01Stephanie, hand me that book.
01:07:23Yes, Mom.
01:07:24Alexandra, are you listening?
01:07:26Yeah, trust me, Mom, I can always hear you.
01:07:29Oh, you're an incorrigible young lady.
01:07:32Now, where is that poem?
01:07:36What is mine all belongs to my children.
01:07:39What I take belongs to the forthcoming generation,
01:07:43a strange little band inflicting pain with joy.
01:07:48How affirming it must feel to be death,
01:07:51to take the pieces of life and place them together
01:07:54however you fancy them to be construed.
01:07:58A space too vast to be even a puzzle pouring endlessly over the edge.
01:08:05What does it mean?
01:08:06What does it mean, William?
01:08:07I'm like, no, I don't know.
01:08:08That's my true love.
01:08:09I trust you.
01:08:10You're a true love.
01:08:11You're a true love.
01:08:12I just wish I had an airport to find out.
01:08:13I don't be too much.
01:08:14I think there's a true love.
01:08:15You're a true love.
01:08:16How to live in nature.
01:08:17You can help me.
01:08:18You're a true love.
01:08:19There's a true love.
01:08:20I wish I've been the best way of living.
01:08:21I wish I could.
01:08:22I wish I had a place for life for you.
