00:00:25Wake up you little sucker, we've got so much to do, here eat your breakfast, ah you little
00:00:54punk. We must toil to make our daily bread. That we must. We should take our showers. No time
00:01:13for frills. Listen, we can't go to work stinking like skunks, we need to blend into society.
00:01:18Well if that's all it takes. Now I'm legit. Buy my lovely finger puppets, only three dollars
00:01:38each. Buy my dignity, I'm having a clearance sale. Buy my lovely finger puppets, only one
00:01:43dollar each. Buy my... what do I have to sell? Screw it, no one's buying. Give me your money,
00:01:50I'll do a little dance. Hand over your currency, it's no longer current. Buy my bitter lost passions.
00:02:00Rent my broken dreams.
00:02:04How's our food holding up? Looks like we got enough to last a lifetime. A lifetime? Yeah,
00:02:17we'll probably get through about half of it, then we'll want to kill ourselves. Good point.
00:02:22They're not that bad when they're boiled. Yeah, they're great. How much did you say they
00:02:29work in? About ten cents a block. We need cash. Ooh.
00:02:37Hmm. Wow. Bobby?
00:02:58April Wilson? How long has it been since high school? I lost track. What are you doing?
00:03:05Uh, it's just a little project. You always were artistic. Is that what you are now, an artist?
00:03:14Yeah, I'm an artist. Well, that's so wonderful. So, do you live nearby?
00:03:20Yes, quite nearby. Well, that's great, because I'm having a party on Saturday. Just pop by.
00:03:27It'd be great to catch up with you. Thanks.
00:03:36You should come to the shindig. The wingding? Mm-hmm. Man, I'd rather eat cardboard.
00:03:40You do that already. True that. So, I think I need an artsy getup.
00:03:44Oh. Okay, let's just swipe the Amex. Should we put it on the gold or platinum?
00:03:48I could dumpster dive it. Go for that hipster look. They look homeless half the time anyway, huh?
00:03:57Ooh, festive. Ooh, smelly.
00:04:06And then when you do it, you're off the long end. So servicing.
00:04:15That's a little unorthodox. How did you pick up that? She's good.
00:04:21What on earth is that? Should we call the police? Oh, no. It's April's headache.
00:04:43Ha, ha, ha.
00:04:47Hi, Bobby. Oh, hi, April.
00:04:50Well, I'm glad you've made it. Me too.
00:04:52Uh, have you met my friends? Um, I've met your cheese plate.
00:04:55Apparently so. Come on. Come meet my friends. Okay.
00:05:02Hey, everyone. Um, this is my friend Bobby from high school.
00:05:05Hello. Hello, Bobby. Bobby. Hi.
00:05:08He's an artist.
00:05:10Oh, what kind of artist are you?
00:05:13I'm like a sculptor of sorts.
00:05:16Oh. Um, that should account for your colourful attire.
00:05:23I once met Lafitte Lesseux. He was, um, similarly garish.
00:05:28That's really true.
00:05:30Who?
00:05:31Lafitte Lesseux.
00:05:32I mean, he's this fabulous performance artist.
00:05:35He does work downtown.
00:05:37I love him.
00:05:38I love him.
00:05:39Uh, so.
00:05:40So, what do you all do?
00:05:43We're psychiatrists.
00:05:46All of you?
00:05:48Even him?
00:05:50Yes, even me.
00:05:52I mean, I didn't mean it like some kind of, uh, you know, I just, I was wondering.
00:05:57Okay, okay. Let's go get some Merlot.
00:05:59I mean, there's so many friends.
00:06:01Even me, I mean.
00:06:02Sorry. It can be a bit much.
00:06:04Yeah, you used to hang with a different crowd.
00:06:06Yeah, I know. I don't know what happened.
00:06:08There you are.
00:06:09Oh, hey, Bobby. This is Seymour, my colleague.
00:06:16Okay, well, he's a little bit more than my colleague.
00:06:20Hi, Seymour.
00:06:21How do you do?
00:06:22No complaints.
00:06:23Good. Because people rarely listen to them. That's why they hire shrinks.
00:06:30True dat.
00:06:32Dat?
00:06:33That.
00:06:34Oh, that.
00:06:38Excuse me.
00:06:42What an...
00:06:43Jerk.
00:06:44Oh, I know. Isn't it hot?
00:06:45Yeah.
00:06:46April, you have to come see Muffy's Hashina.
00:06:49I think I need to go feed my iguana.
00:06:53Okay, well, let's catch up sometime, you know, when I don't have to entertain my colleagues.
00:06:59Yeah, okay.
00:07:00So, what's your number?
00:07:01I don't have one.
00:07:03No, I mean, I'm switching phone companies, so, but I have yours.
00:07:07No, give me a call.
00:07:08Cool beans.
00:07:09See you later, Bobby.
00:07:11Bye.
00:07:16Hit me.
00:07:22Such a goon.
00:07:26You should make a naked lady.
00:07:28It would probably sell.
00:07:29And a naked man.
00:07:30You'd like that, wouldn't you?
00:07:37These dummies just can't recognize fine art when they see it.
00:07:41If all else fails, we can boil them up and eat them.
00:07:47I'm sorry, I'm sorry, my bad.
00:07:49It's okay.
00:07:50No one was buying them anyway.
00:07:52Well, how much were you charging?
00:07:53Five bucks.
00:07:55Five bucks?
00:07:56For noodles?
00:07:57I could have made those!
00:08:00They said the same thing to Picasso.
00:08:05That's creative.
00:08:06Thanks.
00:08:07How much are they?
00:08:08Four dollars.
00:08:09All right.
00:08:17Those look weird.
00:08:22Thanks.
00:08:23What's that one?
00:08:24It's a naked lady.
00:08:25How much?
00:08:26Five hundred dollars.
00:08:28Tell you what, I'm gonna give you a hundred bucks?
00:08:30Or that one right there?
00:08:31Not a penny more.
00:08:32You have a little smudge.
00:08:47Ow.
00:08:48It's a really big smudge.
00:08:51Life is full of smudges.
00:08:53It's like you never grew up.
00:08:54Maybe I didn't have it in me.
00:08:56What?
00:08:57Growth.
00:08:58Everyone does.
00:08:59Perhaps I didn't want to.
00:09:01That's a different story.
00:09:03Ah!
00:09:04You're doing it!
00:09:05What?
00:09:06Psycho-analyzing.
00:09:07So you're pretty much all grown up and settled, huh?
00:09:10Settled?
00:09:11You know, you have a fully plotted career path, a mortgage, a 401k.
00:09:15You know with absolute certainty who you'll spend the rest of your life with.
00:09:19I wouldn't be shocked if you already started saving for your unborn children's college education.
00:09:24The writing is on the wall.
00:09:27Scary.
00:09:28It's your life, not mine.
00:09:34So April looks more or less the same as she did in high school.
00:09:37You still have a hard-on for her.
00:09:39No I don't.
00:09:40Hello sir, my name is Pierre.
00:09:43Nice to meet you.
00:09:44A banker friend of mine apparently acquired one of your masterpieces, very cheap.
00:09:48Would you like to buy one?
00:09:50Well no, but I'd like to hang them in my gallery.
00:09:54I think I could make you a star.
00:09:56Wow.
00:09:57Oh.
00:09:58I think you've been outclassed.
00:10:09Story of my life.
00:10:11You're really an artist.
00:10:12T for Tuffy.
00:10:13Cool.
00:10:14Okay, so basically spell out the word war underneath stop.
00:10:18Because then it's going to say stop war.
00:10:19Stop war.
00:10:20You're really an artist.
00:10:21You're really an artist.
00:10:22You're really an artist.
00:10:23T for Tuffy.
00:10:24Cool.
00:10:34Okay, so basically spell out the word war underneath stop.
00:10:38Because then it's going to say stop war.
00:10:55No more selling dainty little artwork for the man.
00:10:57We are artists of the streets.
00:10:59Viva la raza!
00:11:00Huh?
00:11:02I don't know.
00:11:03You're going to have to panhandle somewhere else.
00:11:05Who's panhandling?
00:11:06Move along stinky.
00:11:10I just bathed.
00:11:11That was yesterday.
00:11:12Crap.
00:11:24What are you doing?
00:11:25Oh I call it happy bird's nest.
00:11:27You'd better vacate the premises.
00:11:30It's hard to take a rental cop seriously.
00:11:33Perhaps a mustache would lend him a certain gravitas.
00:11:41Uh oh.
00:11:42You let him go with your rental cop?
00:11:44I don't know what's being rude about the seizure and I'm not afraid.
00:11:47You should come down here and pick him up and book him ASAP.
00:11:49You batted my cat.
00:11:50You used excessive force.
00:11:52You sexually assaulted this man.
00:11:54I bet you took this job just so you can handcuff people.
00:11:58Pervert!
00:12:05Hey Buttercup, give me a sandwich.
00:12:13Give the boss your bread.
00:12:14Hm?
00:12:15I'm Buttercup?
00:12:16You're whatever Boomer says you are.
00:12:19Okay, but uh, you might get herpes.
00:12:23I already got it.
00:12:24And malaria.
00:12:26Ugh.
00:12:30But boss, you can't get malaria from a sandwich.
00:12:32It's only transmitted through the African tsetse fly.
00:12:34Teach him not to threaten a Boomer with such fake diseases.
00:12:38No, that's sleeping sickness.
00:12:40What?
00:12:41That's sleeping sickness.
00:12:42What?
00:12:43The tsetse fly does not give you malaria.
00:12:49It gives you sleeping sickness.
00:12:50Mm-hmm.
00:12:51He's right, boss.
00:12:52Kick his ass!
00:12:53Oh!
00:12:54Can I have this?
00:12:55Sure.
00:12:56Well, not all of them.
00:12:57I need them all to fight the darkness.
00:13:02Okay, boss.
00:13:03He'll protect you.
00:13:04Thanks, boss.
00:13:05Take your medication, okay?
00:13:06Sure thing.
00:13:07Take your medication, okay?
00:13:08Sure thing.
00:13:09Come on.
00:13:10Come on.
00:13:11Come on.
00:13:12Come on.
00:13:13Do a standard psych evaluation before we can let this indigent go.
00:13:14Indigent.
00:13:15You need the standard psych evaluation before we can let this indigent go?
00:13:23He'll protect you.
00:13:25Thanks, Boz.
00:13:27Take your medication, okay?
00:13:29Sure thing.
00:13:39Do you need a standard psych evaluation before we can let this indigent go?
00:13:42Indigent?
00:13:44Want me to stick around for your protection?
00:13:46That won't be necessary.
00:13:48What happened to your face?
00:13:53Oh, I got into a little scuffle.
00:13:55Hey, hey, you should see the other guy.
00:13:57He's pretty much unscathed.
00:14:00Vandalism?
00:14:02Defacement of property?
00:14:04Assault?
00:14:05I was just expressing myself artistically.
00:14:07That doesn't make me crazy, right?
00:14:09You're not crazy, Bobby.
00:14:11Just misunderstood.
00:14:13I've been looking all over for you.
00:14:18Hey, Tuffy.
00:14:23What the hell happened to your face?
00:14:25Oh, a couple gangbangers beat me down in a holding cell.
00:14:28Who are you talking to?
00:14:30Tuffy.
00:14:31Oh, hey, April. How you been?
00:14:35Tuffy was wondering how you've been.
00:14:38Who's Tuffy?
00:14:40Remember Tuffy from high school?
00:14:42Why do all your stuck-up friends give me the cold shoulder?
00:14:46I'm gonna have him let you out, Bobby.
00:14:50But you're gonna need some counseling.
00:14:52Yeah, fatty here needs weight watchers.
00:15:02Myochondria.
00:15:03It's like the power plant of the cell.
00:15:06Right.
00:15:09Name the DNA bases.
00:15:11Adenine, guanine, thiamine, cytosine.
00:15:17When did you study this?
00:15:19Hmm.
00:15:23Mr. Sorum's cute.
00:15:26He's old.
00:15:28Not that old.
00:15:32Hello?
00:15:33Oh, hey, Chaz.
00:15:36Yeah?
00:15:39How many goals?
00:15:43Picture her in this.
00:15:44Oh, Chaz, you're so funny.
00:15:58Stop.
00:15:59Why are you doing this to me?
00:16:00Yeah, I'm coming right over.
00:16:01Love you.
00:16:02Bye.
00:16:04Let's study more later, okay?
00:16:07Okay.
00:16:08Bobby is a nut job.
00:16:10If I'm a nut job, you don't exist.
00:16:14Bobby is quite normal.
00:16:17That's what I thought.
00:16:18Now go make me a sammich.
00:16:19Don't make me clock you in front of this police station.
00:16:23I'm so hungry.
00:16:24Again?
00:16:25Yeah, this crazy thing happens every time I don't eat for a few hours.
00:16:29We need to find a way to get food three times a day without making it into this big scavenger hunt.
00:16:34See those apartments up there?
00:16:36Uh-huh.
00:16:37They contain these cool boxes called refrigerators.
00:16:41Yeah.
00:16:42And they're filled with food.
00:16:44And every time the people get hungry, all they have to do is open the refrigerator and eat the food.
00:16:49Sign us up.
00:16:50It's not that easy.
00:16:51It never is.
00:16:53We need money.
00:16:54Of course.
00:16:55I think we should get jobs.
00:16:57But I want to be free.
00:16:58Free and hungry.
00:16:59If that's what it takes.
00:17:01You know, I was thinking.
00:17:03I kind of want to leave my mark on this world in something more permanent than noodles.
00:17:08Fine.
00:17:09Get a job.
00:17:10That'll work.
00:17:11Pshh.
00:17:15Don't do it.
00:17:16You'll hate life.
00:17:17You'll hate it.
00:17:19You'll become one of them.
00:17:20I can't bum forever.
00:17:22Don't leave me.
00:17:24I'll return.
00:17:27Triumphant.
00:17:29Hopefully.
00:17:31How many words per minute?
00:17:32Huh?
00:17:33How many words can you type per minute?
00:17:36That depends.
00:17:37On what?
00:17:39On whether they're long words or short ones.
00:17:41I mean, I could type the word A like a thousand times.
00:17:45I have the perfect job for you.
00:18:02Smith report.
00:18:03Huh?
00:18:04Uh.
00:18:05It's done.
00:18:11Why don't these jerk-offs give us dental coverage?
00:18:14Uh.
00:18:15I got a toothbrush.
00:18:16Jerk-offs.
00:18:17Dobson Letter.
00:18:18Uh.
00:18:19It's finished.
00:18:20Dobson Letter.
00:18:21Uh.
00:18:22It's finished.
00:18:24Dobson Letter.
00:18:25Uh.
00:18:26It's finished.
00:18:27It's finished.
00:18:38It's finished.
00:18:39It's finished.
00:18:42Oh, look, Uncle Tom's back from working for the man.
00:18:59I quit.
00:19:00Stick it to him.
00:19:02You got paid, right?
00:19:03Help me paint these cogs.
00:19:42Oh, my God.
00:20:12Remember Bobby?
00:20:16Who?
00:20:17My friend who came to the party.
00:20:21That kid?
00:20:23He's the same age as me.
00:20:25You're all just kitties to me.
00:20:27I think he has a problem.
00:20:29He doesn't have free weekends either.
00:20:38Thank you all for coming.
00:20:40But what kind of people show up at some shady lot they read about on a cog?
00:20:44Um, weirdos.
00:20:45My kind of people.
00:20:47The curious ones.
00:20:48The restless ones.
00:20:48The ones who are searching for something.
00:20:50Who might not even know what they're looking for.
00:20:53What does this mean?
00:20:54Excellent question.
00:20:55Tell me.
00:20:56What does it do?
00:20:57It turns.
00:20:58For what purpose?
00:21:00I don't know.
00:21:01Can you tell by looking at it?
00:21:02No.
00:21:03Why not?
00:21:04Because I don't know where it fits.
00:21:06Exactly.
00:21:07But you do know three things.
00:21:09It only fits in one place.
00:21:10It only does one thing.
00:21:12And if it wears out,
00:21:14it can be replaced by an identical one.
00:21:17Sound familiar?
00:21:19Ew, gross.
00:21:22Never mind.
00:21:23What do you do?
00:21:24I deliver the mail.
00:21:26What does that involve?
00:21:28Putting letters in people's boxes.
00:21:30Anything else?
00:21:32That's all.
00:21:33If you were hit by a bus,
00:21:34what would the postal service do?
00:21:36Oh, they'd be sad.
00:21:38But what would they do?
00:21:42Hire a new guy.
00:21:43Exactly.
00:21:44We're all being trained to be interchangeable parts.
00:21:47We're all being molded to fit into this bigger system.
00:21:50Some people think they have control.
00:21:52Some people think they pull the strings
00:21:54and turn the screws,
00:21:55but ultimately,
00:21:56they're just larger interchangeable parts
00:21:58in larger machines.
00:22:00What do you want us to do?
00:22:02We need to raise people's awareness.
00:22:03We need to show them where they fit in the bigger picture.
00:22:06Some people might not like what they see.
00:22:08We can cause a ground swell.
00:22:10And the truth?
00:22:11The truth will set us free.
00:22:22Hey, who's sponsoring this?
00:22:26Uh, the Corporate Military Industrial Complex.
00:22:30Do you have decaf?
00:22:31Why would we offer that?
00:22:33Why not?
00:22:34The whole point is to drug you into staying wide awake
00:22:36so you work really hard.
00:22:39I'm gonna pass.
00:22:44Slave juice?
00:22:46Anyone?
00:22:46That's cute.
00:22:52Thanks.
00:22:55Do you mind if I ask?
00:22:57How much did it cost?
00:22:59Hmm, $20.
00:23:01Great price.
00:23:03I don't know.
00:23:04It only cost 68 cents to make.
00:23:06How?
00:23:07They have 8-year-old Cambodians
00:23:09working 15-hour days for 5 bucks a week,
00:23:11and their hands are so small and skillful.
00:23:13That's awful, isn't it?
00:23:18Here.
00:23:20You can have it.
00:23:22Thanks.
00:23:26Um, can I have my wallet?
00:23:43You don't want to keep going away with me.
00:23:58You don't want to keep going away.
00:23:59You don't want to keep going away.
00:24:02Are you thinking what I'm thinking?
00:24:25What are you thinking?
00:24:26Some very subversive thoughts.
00:24:29Like stupid ones?
00:24:30Yeah, kind of.
00:24:31Count me in.
00:24:37So, what's new?
00:24:41Not much, Bobby.
00:24:42It's only been a few days since the last time you got picked up.
00:24:45Oops.
00:24:46What's going through your head?
00:24:48I don't know.
00:24:49Sugar plums?
00:24:50So, you're hearing voices?
00:24:52Oh yeah, I do whatever my Rice Krispies tell me to do.
00:24:55You do?
00:24:56No.
00:24:56What are you, crazy?
00:24:58So, tell me about your friend.
00:25:00Well, I know this cool bird named April.
00:25:02I hear she likes to collect Civil War memorabilia.
00:25:05Is Tuffy in the room with us?
00:25:07Do you see him?
00:25:09Where is he?
00:25:10I don't know.
00:25:11He's probably off chasing squirrels or schoolgirls or something.
00:25:16Bobby, you're mentally ill.
00:25:19What exactly does that mean?
00:25:22It means you need help.
00:25:24Need is a very subjective word.
00:25:26I want to help you.
00:25:28Knock yourself out.
00:25:29I love you, Mrs. Duck.
00:25:36You're everything to me.
00:25:40This is your home?
00:25:42Excuse me.
00:25:44Shh.
00:25:44Well, this is actually my summer home.
00:25:48My main estate is down the block behind the Piggly Wiggly.
00:25:52You can't live here.
00:25:54What are you talking about?
00:25:55This is the most luxurious alley in town.
00:25:58It even had a spread in Allitectural Digest.
00:26:01Bobby.
00:26:02April.
00:26:03You can crash at my place until you get back on your feet.
00:26:06No thanks.
00:26:07I like my chateau.
00:26:08You let me stay at your house when my dad lost his, so I would be happy to return the favor.
00:26:15Well, if it makes you happy.
00:26:21Hey, what am I, chopped liver?
00:26:30I'm sure you'll get a new house soon.
00:26:32I hear great things about Chapter 11 bankruptcy reorganization.
00:26:35And Chaz was all wrong for you.
00:26:37I mean, you need a much nicer guy.
00:26:41And you can get a new cat at the shelter.
00:26:44Not that it'll ever completely replace Pookie.
00:26:48Mono's not that bad, as long as you drink lots of water.
00:26:52I'll shut up now.
00:27:00Hiya, Seymour.
00:27:02Good afternoon.
00:27:04The toes look great.
00:27:06They're practically glowing.
00:27:07Thanks.
00:27:09To what do I owe this pleasure?
00:27:11Bobby needs to crash on our couch.
00:27:13I see.
00:27:14You'll hardly notice me.
00:27:16My God, put some clothes on.
00:27:18Well, I barely had a chance before you left me high and dry.
00:27:21Dry?
00:27:22You're dripping all over the place.
00:27:24At least go towel off or something.
00:27:27Fine.
00:27:28Fascist!
00:27:28Sorry, it's like he was born in a barn.
00:27:32I think April would be better able to counsel you if you weren't living in the same home.
00:27:37You know, a therapist needs to keep her distance from her patients so she can see things more objectively.
00:27:41You're probably right.
00:27:42It's about time we rambled on.
00:27:49Wait for me, you fickle pickle.
00:27:54I should have just stayed in the tub.
00:27:57Bobby needs my help.
00:27:58So help, but he doesn't need to sprawl out on our sofa while we're working for a living.
00:28:03You're like a little girl taking in strays.
00:28:06The guy had so much potential.
00:28:08Doesn't this Florence Nightingale thing get a little old?
00:28:12You know, we could be living in a much larger home if you would just join me in the private sector.
00:28:17So I can get overpaid to hear self-indulgent rich people whine about their broken fingernails?
00:28:23Some of them have real problems.
00:28:31Hey guys, it really warms my heart to see y'all here.
00:28:33Let's get down to business.
00:28:35What are those?
00:28:40It's not a trick question.
00:28:41Oink, oink!
00:28:42They're cops.
00:28:44Yes, you're right.
00:28:45They are cops.
00:28:46But on a deeper level?
00:28:47Men?
00:28:48Yes, cops are men and women.
00:28:51But these are just cartoons.
00:28:53They still trigger a meaning in our minds.
00:28:58What do you see?
00:29:00Politicians?
00:29:01Hmm, okay.
00:29:04What are these?
00:29:06Logos!
00:29:07Yes.
00:29:09What's this?
00:29:11Money.
00:29:11I could use some of that.
00:29:13Why?
00:29:14People seem willing to give me stuff for it.
00:29:16You can give people little green sheets of paper and they give you actual goods and services.
00:29:23You know money used to be backed by precious metals.
00:29:26Now it's backed by nothing.
00:29:28It has no intrinsic value.
00:29:30Only the value people think it has.
00:29:32Currency is a mass hallucination.
00:29:34What does the money and the logos and the politicians and the cops all have in common?
00:29:41They're just symbols.
00:29:42But they hold power over us.
00:29:45You know, when a cop pulls you over, you have to listen to him.
00:29:47Why?
00:29:48Because he has a badge.
00:29:49He's an authority symbol.
00:29:51When you go to buy a car, a different logo on the hood jacks up the price thousands of dollars.
00:29:57Why?
00:29:59Because it's a status symbol.
00:30:02All these logos and brand names trigger perceptions in our mind of a product's value.
00:30:06When in truth, we can get a better impression just by looking at it or touching it.
00:30:10These symbols are obscuring our perception of reality.
00:30:16So what do you want us to do?
00:30:18We need to stop taking the symbols at face value.
00:30:20We need to be conscious of how they play on our emotions.
00:30:23How they tell us what we want to hear, even if it's just nonsense.
00:30:26How they con us into swallowing mountains of institutional lies.
00:30:30That's the only way we can break free from this mental slavery.
00:30:38That was remarkably coherent.
00:30:40Not bad for a total crackpot, eh?
00:30:43You're not a total crackpot.
00:30:44More like a chippot.
00:30:48Want to hit the tennis courts?
00:30:51Oh!
00:31:00Meow!
00:31:03Bet I can swing higher than you!
00:31:06Come here often?
00:31:07Not all the time, but...
00:31:09I like to once in a while.
00:31:11Reminds me of a time I felt...
00:31:14...prepared for.
00:31:18See what it's like not being in old square, living in Squaresville...
00:31:21...eating, uh...
00:31:23...square cakes?
00:31:25Yeah, it's great.
00:31:26As long as it's real.
00:31:28You know, you don't want to go around making up little friends.
00:31:32Who's making anything up?
00:31:34I don't get it, April.
00:31:35You want me to be alone?
00:31:37You're already alone.
00:31:39You can't know that.
00:31:41Maybe I see something you can't see.
00:31:43People can be pretty lousy.
00:31:45And everybody's disappointed in me at least once.
00:31:48I'm not toughy.
00:31:48I disappointed you?
00:31:52No.
00:31:53You said everybody has.
00:31:55Everybody else.
00:32:06Look who decided to sashay in.
00:32:09Are you drunk?
00:32:10You missed my alumni mixer.
00:32:12I'm really sorry I got caught up with work.
00:32:15You should mix more.
00:32:17I'm kind of all mixed up.
00:32:19Anyway, I've had enough glad-handing for a while.
00:32:22But what about me?
00:32:25How can I project power and success without my little trophy?
00:32:29By being powerful and successful?
00:32:32But I am!
00:32:35Yes, you are, darling.
00:32:40Thanks.
00:32:42Did I titillate you?
00:32:43Oh, yes.
00:32:47Let us go upstairs and do as the bunnies do.
00:32:50Hop.
00:32:52Bone.
00:32:53Seymour, I'm tired.
00:32:57You're never frisky anymore.
00:33:00I suppose not.
00:33:04Where were you today?
00:33:06Bobby was showing me where he hangs out.
00:33:08Were you two ever lovers?
00:33:10No, just pals.
00:33:12I don't trust him.
00:33:14He's a mentally ill homeless guy.
00:33:16What are you afraid of?
00:33:18Hmm?
00:33:19Hmm-mm-mm.
00:33:21Hmm-mm.
00:33:25Damn, it's good to see you all.
00:33:27How y'all doing?
00:33:28I'm content like the trees in the forest.
00:33:31Okay.
00:33:31So, I've been trying to put my finger on what bothers me about people.
00:33:36They turn smelly when they don't bathe.
00:33:40When you think through human history, what has caused the greatest suffering?
00:33:43Uh, the atom bomb.
00:33:44Sure, that's a horrendous machine.
00:33:47But I'm talking about something that isn't just responsible for countless deaths, but
00:33:52also for keeping people suppressed in life.
00:33:54For keeping people ignorant.
00:33:56For making them ignore their own best interests.
00:33:58But, the greatest source of suffering can also be the greatest source of happiness.
00:34:03The most dangerous weapon can also be the greatest cure.
00:34:07What are you talking about?
00:34:08You need to lay off the peyote.
00:34:09Faith is a double-edged sword.
00:34:16It can bring us all together, or it can tear us all apart.
00:34:20You see, there's good faith and there's bad faith.
00:34:22But how do you know the difference?
00:34:23Here's the way I see it.
00:34:25If you're going to invest your faith in a person, or a religion, or a government,
00:34:29you can't just do it because your friends are doing it, or because you were born into it.
00:34:32You have to do it because it actually makes sense.
00:34:34Institutions should have to earn your faith.
00:34:37And they should constantly strive to keep it.
00:34:39That's the only way to keep them from going bad.
00:34:41The real enemy is blind faith.
00:34:44When people turn off their brains and arbitrarily just decide,
00:34:47my religion is the only true path.
00:34:51My government is the only just regime.
00:34:53My particular skewed worldview is the objective truth.
00:34:58That's when we let ourselves get controlled.
00:35:00That's when we become pawns in other people's wars.
00:35:03That's when we get at each other's throats.
00:35:05That's when we come to a very good place.
00:35:07That's when we go to a very good place.
00:35:08That's when we go to a very good place.
00:35:10That's when we get here.
00:35:11Wow.
00:35:11We're really getting this deep stuff here.
00:35:18Hi, I'm Tess Whitman from KMBS.
00:35:20I'm doing a story about you.
00:35:22Huh?
00:35:24Is your movement a cult?
00:35:26Uh, no. I mean, cults tell people to follow their specific beliefs.
00:35:31I'm not telling people to listen to me. I don't want them to listen to anyone.
00:35:35I want them to listen to themselves.
00:35:37So you want people to ignore society's rules?
00:35:40Not necessarily. I just don't want them to blindly follow them either.
00:35:45Hi. I'm the man behind the man behind the man.
00:35:49You know what I mean? So kind of pay attention to what I'm saying. Yeah. Okay.
00:35:53It seems a movement, or as some may claim, a cult, is gaining influence across the Southland.
00:36:00They don't have a name, but apparently they rally behind this symbol.
00:36:05Theories about these brightly colored gears vary.
00:36:09This is me. This dent is my boo-boo.
00:36:14Wow. That's so deep.
00:36:18This is a gift from above.
00:36:21It helps us in our daily lives.
00:36:32Mmm.
00:36:33You've got it all wrong.
00:36:35These cogs represent us.
00:36:37We're all just so much of interchangeable parts.
00:36:40We're all stuck in the big machine.
00:36:42I mean, if we wear out, they just... replace...
00:36:52Get your own lousy mail, you guilty rich bastards!
00:36:59Bobby changed my life.
00:37:01I mean, not much has changed on the surface, but my mind used to have all these limitations that now I see past.
00:37:11Now I'm free.
00:37:12Listen, I didn't realize I started a movement. I just see things a certain way and I wanted to voice my opinion.
00:37:19I used to believe, you know, in the higher society, but now I know it's just all a game.
00:37:24There's this system of rewards and punishments in place to mold us, and sometimes I just feel like a dog in obedience school jumping through hoops trying to get a pat on the head.
00:37:37You know, they tell us to get good jobs and follow the rules, but we get distracted and we lose sight of what's really going on.
00:37:47How did you guys find me here?
00:38:07What's up, sunshine?
00:38:10I checked you on the news last night, and I thought to myself, your cause is one I can really fight for.
00:38:16I'm going to donate some of my daddy's office space for your cult.
00:38:19Are you real?
00:38:21Maybe I am crazy.
00:38:37Hello?
00:38:38Uh, sure, we take donations.
00:38:47We finally made it.
00:38:57Night, Bobby.
00:38:59Night, little buddy.
00:39:01Night, little buddy.
00:39:06So what happened to your parents?
00:39:07They moved to Florida.
00:39:08I call them every month.
00:39:10Do they know you're homeless?
00:39:11I'm not homeless.
00:39:12The whole world is my home.
00:39:15So when did you start to feel alienated?
00:39:18When they beamed me up to the mothership.
00:39:20Don't be glib.
00:39:21It's who I am.
00:39:22When did you start to feel alienated?
00:39:25I don't.
00:39:26When did you start to live in denial?
00:39:28I thought I was the therapist.
00:39:30People have all sorts of crazy thoughts.
00:39:33Fine.
00:39:34If it'll get you to open up, I'll share too.
00:39:38Sometimes, I feel a little awkward around Seymour's friends.
00:39:44It's like this old boys club.
00:39:47Like a gaggle of Seymour's?
00:39:50Yeah, pretty much.
00:39:51What exactly do you see in him?
00:39:53I'm losing track.
00:39:58Here.
00:39:59These will stop your hallucinations.
00:40:02What hallucinations?
00:40:04If Tuffy is really there, they won't do anything.
00:40:08If he's all in your head, he'll disappear.
00:40:12Okay, but I might as well be popping jelly beans.
00:40:14I mean, he's a stubborn little sucker.
00:40:16I don't think he's going anywhere.
00:40:17Man, are you on crack?
00:40:20Let's go back to our digs.
00:40:22I can't sleep there.
00:40:23It's too clean.
00:40:24You're right.
00:40:25We belong here in the dirt.
00:40:27Man comes from the earth and then he returns to it.
00:40:31Hey, what you got there, Dr. Feelgood?
00:40:34Some happy pills?
00:40:35We gonna get retarded?
00:40:37Hand it over, Bobby.
00:40:38Spread the fun around.
00:40:39April gave him to me.
00:40:40When's that cheeky gonna learn to share with all her babies?
00:40:44They're supposed to stop my hallucinations.
00:40:46Ha!
00:40:47That Fruit Loop still thinks you're loopy.
00:40:49Give me one of those pills.
00:40:50Maybe it'll make you disappear.
00:40:52No!
00:40:53Give me these!
00:40:54No!
00:40:55Give me those pills, Bobby.
00:40:56Why aren't you vanishing?
00:40:57Okay, say I was just a figment.
00:40:58Do you really want to get rid of me?
00:40:59It's just that April says I can't live in the real world if I'm stuck in my own fantasy.
00:41:16So that's what this is about.
00:41:18You want to get rid of me so you can get with that vixen.
00:41:20No, it's not like that at all.
00:41:21I'm real.
00:41:22Go ahead and take your drugs.
00:41:24I'm not going anywhere.
00:41:25I don't want to.
00:41:27You insist.
00:41:36Not such an easy pill to swallow, eh?
00:41:40Might as well let it drop.
00:41:41It's not coming up.
00:41:48See?
00:41:49I keep it real.
00:41:52Tuffy, I'm sorry.
00:41:53I didn't mean to doubt you.
00:41:54Eh, it's alright.
00:41:55You hit the sack.
00:41:56I'm going to hit the can.
00:42:00Alright, there's no need to get all gay-bo about this.
00:42:03What time is it?
00:42:14Tuffy?
00:42:16Tuffy, did you go to the Rocky Horror Show again?
00:42:19for a long time.
00:42:21Tuffy.
00:42:22Tuffy.
00:42:27Tuffy?
00:42:30Tuffy...
00:42:32Tuffy?
00:42:34Tuffy?
00:42:40Tuffy?
00:42:42Tuffy?!
00:42:44do. What? He's gone. Oh, he was never really there to begin with. My only true friend is gone.
00:42:53Bobby, you used to scare people. Now that you're not hallucinating, maybe you can start to make
00:42:59friends with real human beings. People are a bunch of jerks. I want my best friend back.
00:43:06Bobby, you gotta give this a fair try. Take your medication and see how it goes. If mental health
00:43:13means feeling this emptiness, I'd rather just be a total crackpot. I'm sorry, Bobby. Maybe
00:43:20this was too soon. You can stop taking your pills whenever you want. We come back. We probably
00:43:27will. I'm your true friend also. Yeah. It'll be okay. Yeah.
00:43:43I'll let you go back to work. Okay.
00:43:53So I used some of the donation money to bake cookies. Mmm. You're using our funds for sweets?
00:44:00Aren't they neat? Mmm. Sugar-y.
00:44:04We should be stockpiling assault rifles.
00:44:07I know this great psychiatrist. She's a good friend of mine.
00:44:10How are we going to violently overthrow the system with cookies?
00:44:13The system's too strong to violently overthrow. And it's made of people like you and me.
00:44:18I think En Vogue put it best. Free your mind and the rest will follow. Now free their minds
00:44:23and the oppressive structure will collapse on its own.
00:44:27Stop touching me.
00:44:29Sorry.
00:44:29That was really weird.
00:44:37So I got a surprise for y'all.
00:44:44A piece of paper?
00:44:45This is a blank slate.
00:44:47If we're to last, we're going to need a constitution.
00:44:50It's our chance to document our ideals
00:44:52and pass them on for generations.
00:44:54So everybody think of your highest values
00:44:56and at the next meeting we'll discuss them
00:44:58and draft our Declaration of Independence.
00:45:02The kids are so difficult.
00:45:05I don't think they respect me.
00:45:08My youngest flat out hates me
00:45:10ever since I suggested she get her nose done.
00:45:12Perhaps she feels you disapprove of her.
00:45:15Of course I disapprove of her.
00:45:17Have you seen that schnoz?
00:45:18She got it from her father.
00:45:21Tell her she's beautiful.
00:45:23I'm not going to lie to her.
00:45:25Maybe a little white lie is in order.
00:45:27It's like Bobby says.
00:45:29Every lie you tell obscures a person's view of reality.
00:45:33Bobby?
00:45:34You know, the guy with the cogs.
00:45:37Welcome to the Department of Homeland Security Helpline.

00:45:56Welcome to the lunatic cult info line.
00:45:59Here, toughy, toughy, toughy.
00:46:01Where are you hiding?
00:46:04Come on.
00:46:05Rise like a phoenix from the ashes.
00:46:09We've got a live one.
00:46:12Hey, guys.
00:46:13Welcome to my flop house.
00:46:14Let me get the refreshments.
00:46:15Why are you so alarmed?
00:46:18I don't know.
00:46:19You look a little shady.
00:46:21We're your friends.
00:46:22Imagine rich,
00:46:24spones,
00:46:25or with the Department of Homeland Security.
00:46:28We've had our eye on you for a while.
00:46:29Now concerned citizens are starting to tip us off
00:46:32about various questionable activities.
00:46:35Was I supposed to get a permit for that bake sale?
00:46:39Enough of this charade.
00:46:40Are you or are you not trying to overthrow
00:46:43the Postal Service of the United States of America?
00:46:47The Postal Service?
00:46:48Is this man your brainwashed puppet?
00:46:51Oh no, that guy's got a mind of his own.
00:46:53Where is he?
00:46:54I don't know.
00:46:56I'd like to observe you for a few days.
00:46:59I'm a little shy.
00:47:09Damn it, bones.
00:47:10I was supposed to zap him.
00:47:12You snooze, you lose.
00:47:13I'm a little hippo
00:47:31Frolicking in the jungle
00:47:34Eating all the mangoes
00:47:37And pooping on your toes
00:47:40Are you the messiah?
00:47:47Can't say that I am.
00:47:50Are you the gatekeeper?
00:47:52No.
00:47:56No thanks, I just ate
00:47:59What is this, banana?
00:48:01It tastes like pesticide.
00:48:04It gives you special powers.
00:48:06The power to barf on myself?
00:48:08Oh, God.
00:48:10Can I have my limbs back?
00:48:15I promise I won't use them for evil.
00:48:19Where are we?
00:48:21I don't know.
00:48:23Revolution does not come without sacrifice.
00:48:27After all, you have to spill a little blood
00:48:30To make an omelet.
00:48:31Where's Bobby?
00:48:32I don't know.
00:48:34Hugging trees.
00:48:35Picking flowers.
00:48:37Now.
00:48:38Joseph Stalin says
00:48:39That
00:48:40Where the hell do you think you're going?
00:48:47Okay, okay, watch the cashmere.
00:48:50Now.
00:48:51I wish I had my thumbs to twiddle.
00:48:57Sometimes boogers taste like spittle.
00:49:01What's your name again?
00:49:04My very eager mother just served his nine pizzas.
00:49:07Huh?
00:49:09Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, Pluto.
00:49:14Oh, I see.
00:49:19This cat is clowning.
00:49:21Tuffy.
00:49:27Give me five.
00:49:30How'd you get here?
00:49:31I don't know.
00:49:32But the walls sure are nice.
00:49:35We need to get out of here.
00:49:37No way I hear the pudding is fantastic.
00:49:40I hear they do shock therapy.
00:49:42Cool.
00:49:42We'll ride the lightning.
00:49:43And end up like him?
00:49:47We need to get out of here.
00:49:49Who are you talking to?
00:49:51You crazy?
00:49:55This is pretty good.
00:49:56What is it?
00:49:57Seared dolphin.
00:50:01More for me?
00:50:06Eat your taters, or they'll eat you later.
00:50:12Has Bobby popped by lately?
00:50:15What's with you and this kid?
00:50:16Well, he disappeared.
00:50:17I'm just hoping he hasn't gotten into more trouble.
00:50:20That's what he does best.
00:50:22You were sensitive when I first met you.
00:50:24Oh, I'm sensitive now.
00:50:26Sensitive to your treachery.
00:50:28Don't you deal with enough paranoia at work?
00:50:30Do you have to bring it home with you?
00:50:31A little paranoia is healthy.
00:50:32It helps keep the serpents out of the garden.
00:50:36What did you do?
00:50:38He's a danger to society.
00:50:41He's a danger to himself.
00:50:43You know, it's like you're the center of your own universe,
00:50:46and the rest of us are just your accessories.
00:50:50Then you should be happy to be so close to the sun.
00:50:53Oh.
00:50:55You are not the man I fell in love with.
00:51:01Walk out that door,
00:51:02and you will not be allowed back in my garden ever again.
00:51:09Silly girl.
00:51:11That was 500 bucks, you little tart.
00:51:13Listen, Mac, you can't lose your nerve, okay?
00:51:24Will you send me jelly beans?
00:51:25Sure.
00:51:26I'll send you a crate this...
00:51:28this big.
00:51:29What color?
00:51:30All the colors.
00:51:31No.
00:51:32I want yellow and mauve.
00:51:34What's mauve?
00:51:35It's like a light burgundy.
00:51:38Okay?
00:51:39Yellow and mauve.
00:51:40Ready?
00:51:43Now!
00:51:45No!
00:51:45I'm looking at the peacocks.
00:51:50Sometimes I can eat new rocks.
00:51:52Now I'll make you feed me
00:51:54cookies and beans from seaweed.
00:51:56Nanny, Nanny, William, goat.
00:51:57You cannot stash you.
00:51:58No!
00:51:59No!
00:51:59No!
00:52:00No!
00:52:00No!
00:52:00No!
00:52:01No!
00:52:01No!
00:52:01No!
00:52:01No!
00:52:02No!
00:52:02No!
00:52:03No!
00:52:03No!
00:52:04No!
00:52:04No!
00:52:05No!
00:52:06No!
00:52:06No!
00:52:07No!
00:52:07No!
00:52:08No!
00:52:08No!
00:52:09No!
00:52:09No!
00:52:10No!
00:52:10No!
00:52:11No!
00:52:12No!
00:52:12No!
00:52:13No!
00:52:13No!
00:52:33No!
00:52:34No!
00:52:35No!
00:52:36No!
00:52:37No!
00:52:38No!
00:52:39Do you know how many germs you just ate?
00:52:51Some people don't wash their hands after they poop.
00:52:53Yeesh!
00:53:07You don't hate me!
00:53:23How are we supposed to hitchhike without thumbs?
00:53:26Where's Houdini when you need him?
00:53:28Houdini when you needy?
00:53:30Oh boy.
00:53:49I'm free.
00:53:50What about me?
00:53:51I think I'd rather leave you like that.
00:53:53I'll fart all the way home.
00:53:55When you put it that way...
00:54:05Revolution cannot be successful without the complete cooperation of my soldiers.
00:54:11So I need to know right now, who's with me?
00:54:15Oh, don't let this scare you.
00:54:19I would never threaten my own people.
00:54:23This is just to show you what it means to be revolutionary.
00:54:27This baby's what's gonna protect us from the evil...
00:54:31Pow pow pow pow pow pow pow bang!
00:54:33That will try to stand in our way.
00:54:36Aren't you baby?
00:54:37Yes you will.
00:54:38Yes you will.
00:54:39Yes you will.
00:54:41You will.
00:54:42You will.
00:54:47This isn't working.
00:54:48These people are racist!
00:54:49Newsflash!
00:54:50They don't even see you.
00:54:51Show some skin.
00:54:53I don't think that's gonna work.
00:54:55It can't hurt.
00:54:56We will crush the enemies of freedom with our mighty hands.
00:55:01We will make them pay for sins.
00:55:03We will seize their lands.
00:55:05Why aren't any of you singing along?
00:55:24We will make them be their words.
00:55:27We will ring their necks.
00:55:30We will force them...
00:55:32Am I at the wrong meeting?
00:55:34Hi Bobby.
00:55:35Do you want to sing a song with me?
00:55:37What you got there?
00:55:39What?
00:55:40This?
00:55:41It was an M16 assault rifle.
00:55:43Can I see it?
00:55:44No way ballers.
00:55:46It taught me enough.
00:55:48Nothing comes between me and my Nelly.
00:55:51You fought in Vietnam?
00:55:53I think so.
00:55:55Maybe it was a video game.
00:55:57Yeah they say your noodle is fried.
00:56:00Nelly would never cheat on you.
00:56:02She just needs me to clean her tube.
00:56:05Don't ever call her barrel a tube.
00:56:10It's her petunia.
00:56:13Sorry.
00:56:14Petunia.
00:56:15It won't ever happen again.
00:56:17Okay.
00:56:18Water her petunia.
00:56:19Okay.
00:56:20Water her petunia.
00:56:25So uh, what's tonight's topic?
00:56:28Violent revolution.
00:56:29Um, I think that's a topic for a different club, but you could always start your own.
00:56:38Okay.
00:56:39Give me my gun back.
00:56:44I think I could borrow it.
00:56:46I have this horrible rat problem.
00:56:52Okay.
00:56:57That was weird.
00:57:00Okay, so let's get down to business.
00:57:02Someone got a pen?
00:57:03Oh yeah, it's okay.
00:57:04Come on.
00:57:05You again?
00:57:06Hi Seymour.
00:57:07Um, do you know where April is?
00:57:08I think you're in a better position to know.
00:57:09Huh?
00:57:10Casanova.
00:57:11Well, you can't be serious.
00:57:12Look at me.
00:57:13I'm pathetic.
00:57:14You have a point.
00:57:15Oh.
00:57:16Uh, you wouldn't believe the places I...
00:57:17I left Seymour.
00:57:19Good move.
00:57:20Where have you been?
00:57:21I left Seymour.
00:57:23I left Seymour.
00:57:24Good move.
00:57:25Where have you been?
00:57:27I left Seymour.
00:57:28Well, you know where April is?
00:57:29I think you're in a better position to know.
00:57:31Huh?
00:57:32Casanova.
00:57:33You can't be serious.
00:57:35Look at me.
00:57:36I'm pathetic.
00:57:37I'm pathetic.
00:57:38You have a point.
00:57:40You wouldn't believe the places I...
00:57:41I left Seymour.
00:57:43Good move.
00:57:45So, I guess I need to get a case of mauve jelly beans.
00:58:00What's mauve?
00:58:01It's kind of like a light burgundy.
00:58:04I know I shouldn't be, but I feel a little sad about my breakup.
00:58:11Are you sad that it didn't work out or sad that you ever thought it could?
00:58:17Good question.
00:58:19Guess I need a therapist of my own.
00:58:21That's what I'm here for.
00:58:23Don't you ever have relationship issues?
00:58:26Not exactly a dating material.
00:58:28No.
00:58:29I mean, do you know any girls who are into nutty homeless guys?
00:58:32We can work on you a bit.
00:58:35Nah.
00:58:36Let's just hit the swings.
00:58:38Okay.
00:58:41I hate to intrude.
00:58:56They gave me two beds.
00:58:57I might as well put the second one to use.
00:59:01And you might want to put the shower to use.
00:59:05Good call.
00:59:06Good night, Bobby.
00:59:07Good night, little buddy.
00:59:12I can't sleep.
00:59:13Me neither.
00:59:27Wanna cuddle?
00:59:28Huh?
00:59:29It's been a while since I've had a good snuggle.
00:59:44Maybe it'll help us sleep.
00:59:46Okay.
00:59:47I get the inner spoon.
00:59:48Fair enough.
00:59:49Your hair smells good.
01:00:02Thanks.
01:00:03Night, little buddy.
01:00:04Night, night.
01:00:06You little devil, you.
01:00:07Tuffy?
01:00:08What are you doing here?
01:00:09You pimp!
01:00:10How did you pull this off?
01:00:11Um, we're trying to sleep.
01:00:12Hey, Tuffy.
01:00:13Hi, April.
01:00:14You could see him?
01:00:15No.
01:00:16But you were talking in that general direction, so I thought I'd play along.
01:00:19Hmm.
01:00:20Hm.
01:00:21Um.
01:00:22Could Tuffy sleep in the extra bed?
01:00:23Why not?
01:00:24You could see him?
01:00:26No, but you were talking in that general direction, so I thought I'd play along.
01:00:39Um, could Tuffy sleep in the extra bed?
01:00:44Why not?
01:00:45Good night, Tuffy.
01:00:54Night, little buddy.
01:01:15Good night, Tuffy.
01:01:20All I've never known is a light.
01:01:25At night, we got known to be back when Harry Potter's house.
01:01:30Good night.
01:01:36Good night.
01:01:38Good night.
