No, I'm not like this with Gary.
Gary is an idiot.
All Gary has to do is not host cockfights.

How do you know he's scared? You can't even see his face.
If you saw somebody on the side of the road, broke down or in an accident or whatever, would you pull over and help? Did you see somebody who needed help? Maybe.
Did you help them? No.
Do you feel guilty about it? Not really.
I don't see the world like you do, Christian.
How do you see it? Like that asshole.

Still, deserves a drink before the ice caps melt, don't you think? Shot of vodka.
You got it.
That's why I'm here to tell you You're a lifesaver.
I'm trying to play your game Just do what I can.

Javier.
"Letty" is short for? Leticia.
- Leticia.
- I know.
It's awful.
You don't hear it every day.
- Oh, I got these.
- Get out of here.
What do I owe you? These are on me.
Sorry for the wait.
You're gonna find I won't be at home, yeah, mmm Cheers.
Had me on a yo-yo Just going Ohh I have a confession to make.
What? You'll think I'm awful.
Maybe I already think you're awful.
I came here for a blind date.
Baby, it'll be all right What did you do, ditch the guy? No.
I'm chickenin' out.
I don't want to go through with it.
Where were supposed to meet him? Back here.
He was supposed to get us a table.
I got scared, saw a place open up beside you at the bar, decided to-to get a drink and re-evaluate my options.
I know.
I'm a terrible person.
How do you know I'm not the guy? What? What if I am the guy? Oh, you're not the guy.
So, you want to hide out with me is that it? You want to use me? Well, if it's not too much trouble.
I can't promise to be witty and engaging, but I will get the next round.
I don't think we should.
No? No.
If we are really going to throw this guy off your trail, I think you should probably have dinner with me.
So, I get up at 4:00 every morning so I have time to write my book.
I'm almost at 500 pages, single-spaced.
What's it about? Well, I can't tell you that.
You might steal my idea.
I'm not gonna sit down and write a book.
Well, it's about this guy named Lance.
- Mm-hmm.
- Short for "Lancelot.
" Lancelot? Like the Like Sir Lancelot.
No.
My Lance is 35 and he still lives above his parents' garage and he works at a White Castle.
World-class loser, right? But the thing about Lance is he has a million-dollar face.
Mm-hmm.
He looks exactly like Ryan Gosling.
- Like who? - Ryan Gosling.
He's an actor.
He's a famous actor.
- He's very famous.
- Okay.
So, Lance has been mistaken for Ryan Gosling 28 times.
- He counts the times? - He counts 28 times.
And for the last two years, Lance has studied Ryan Gosling's films and interviews, the way he moves and walks and everything he does.
Uh-huh.
So, when Lance gets fired from White Castle, he says to himself he says, "Lance, this is your moment.
You're going after your dream.
" So, then it's all about how he uses his resemblance to storm the Broadway scene and Hollywood.
- And then what? - Then you have to read it to find out.
Love to.
But the ending's gonna be tragic and funny at the same time.
Does Lance get caught? Eventually, of course.
Writing is very lonely, yes? I like being alone.
You do? Well, your students must be very impressed that you are a writer.
No.
They just think I'm a boring high-school English teacher.
Mmm! - Yes, please.
- Thank you.
Tell me more about you.
- I have a sister.
- Older? Younger? Older.
When was the first time you got drunk? I was in Italy with my sister.
She got me drunk on Jack Daniel's.

- The smell and and the taste I can't.
I hate it.
I hate it.
But I drink everything else.

I love your accent.
That went down good.
Wait.

You're Daphne? Yes.
Do we know each other? No, but there's a man coming here to kill you.

A little bit.
Who are you? Doesn't matter.
His name is Javier.
Your husband hired him.
You should go.
- Chase.
- What? Your husband's name is Chase, right? Chase gave Javier a floor plan, a key to your house, a photo of you, and $50,000 to kill you.
Look, I am trying to help you.
Can you think of any reason your husband might want you dead, or is this a total shock? In two minutes, your husband is going to call you.
He'll tell you he can't find his wallet.
He'll ask you to go upstairs and check his bedside table.
Can we take the car in the driveway? I-I'm not leaving with you.
By the time your husband calls, it'll be too late.
The point of the phone call is to get you upstairs so that Javier can break in and kill you.
- Wait.
Wait.
Wait.
Stop.
- No, but I thought He's here.
Is there a gun in the house? - Yeah.
- Show me.

Your wallet.
Sure.
I can check.

Your wallet's not up here.
Do you want me to check downstairs or anywhere? Loaded? Okay.
You and Tyler have fun.
Call 911 now.
Why are you running the shower? Did you call the police? - Yes.
- Get in the closet.
Hide behind your clothes, turn off your phone, - and don't even breathe.
- Are you sure Javier's here.
The police aren't.
We have to deal with this.
[cocks gun.]
You have a shotgun pointed at your back.
Don't turn around.
Don't move.
Drop the gun.
Don't make the mistake thinking I'll tell you again.
Kick it away.
[gun slides across floor.]
Now put your hands above your head and turn around, slowly.
So, you're not an English teacher.
No.
You're a cop.
No.
I was in your room yesterday when you and Chase came in.
My room? I was in the closet, heard everything you said.
You're a thief.
Well then, we can work this out.
How's that? May I get something out of my pocket? Slowly.
The 4Runner in the driveway is new.
There is a bag with fif $50,000 in cash and all the info you need to kill Daphne.
Take the car.
Take the money.
What, and you just kill Daphne anyway? Yes.
Letty, go.
Ever feel like you crossed a line you didn't see? Did my husband pay you to kill me? Daphne Why? I've no idea.
But I am sure you do.
G-Give it to me.
I could kill you right this second.
Daphne, Daphne, calm down.
Drop the keys on the floor.
Take them.
Get out of here.

Pathetic.
Hi, Mom.
I want to see Jacob.
Yeah, that's not gonna happen.
Is he inside? You're violating your restraining order just standing there.
I've got something for him.
You want to give him something? Let it be your absence from his life.
I mean, shit, at least give the kid a chance.
You're so mean.
I signed him up for baseball.
Please, Mom, I haven't seen him in two years.
I'll call the cops if that's what it takes to get you off my property.
Five minutes.
I'd say you've got about three.
Please! [mouthing.]

[vibrating stops.]
Have you seen Crissy around? [honking.]

I'm sorry I missed our appointment.
I'm sorry I've been dodging your calls.
I'm sorry I'm getting back to you so late.
I'm just I'm sorry.
Things went to hell in Asheville.
So I took a little road trip that didn't turn out so great.
I'll be honest.
I've been better.
Don't get mad, but I'm about to do a swan dive off the back of a wagon, pay a little visit to rock bottom.
It's not your fault.
You're not allowed to feel guilty about this.
It's me.
I'm a piece of shit.
Why keep fighting it, you know? So thanks for everything.
Woman: I am able to express my emotions in a healthful, positive way.
Woman: I am centered and well-balanced.
It's a fine time to train animals To gather ourselves in herds.
I can feel how beautiful I am.
No, we'll never die or show anyway The signs of great concern I am utterly, perfectly me.
It's the right time to write back home To share what I've learned and earned You see, we're never right The critic compares to what we've already learned.
I keep seeing your eyes In slo-mo I keep telling the lies In slo-mo Oh, it's so good to see you! Now, tell me everything with Nana.
- I'm really good at math.
- Yeah? I got an A-plus-plus.
Nice place you've got here.
Looks like you crossed back over that line.
Please.
So, how much of my money did you destroy yourself with, huh? - There's $18,000 left.

Two suicide attempts, six O.
D.
s, four abortions.
When you're not in prison, you bounce from town to town, rarely staying longer than a couple of weeks.
You're just a thief, a pickpocket, a grifter a survivor.
All your worldly possessions are in this piece-of-shit motel room, and if you O.
D.
today, nobody would bother to claim your body.
- Did you kill her? - Of course I did.
How did you get out of that house? Because I am not a junkie.

What? You'll think I'm awful.
Maybe I already think you're awful.
I came here for a blind date.
Baby, it'll be all right What did you do, ditch the guy? No.
I'm chickenin' out.
I don't want to go through with it.
Where were supposed to meet him? Back here.
He was supposed to get us a table.
I got scared, saw a place open up beside you at the bar, decided to-to get a drink and re-evaluate my options.
I know.
I'm a terrible person.
How do you know I'm not the guy? What? What if I am the guy? Oh, you're not the guy.
So, you want to hide out with me is that it? You want to use me? Well, if it's not too much trouble.
I can't promise to be witty and engaging, but I will get the next round.
I don't think we should.
No? No.
If we are really going to throw this guy off your trail, I think you should probably have dinner with me.
So, I get up at 4:00 every morning so I have time to write my book.
I'm almost at 500 pages, single-spaced.
What's it about? Well, I can't tell you that.
You might steal my idea.
I'm not gonna sit down and write a book.
Well, it's about this guy named Lance.
- Mm-hmm.
- Short for "Lancelot.
" Lancelot? Like the Like Sir Lancelot.
No.
My Lance is 35 and he still lives above his parents' garage and he works at a White Castle.
World-class loser, right? But the thing about Lance is he has a million-dollar face.
Mm-hmm.
He looks exactly like Ryan Gosling.
- Like who? - Ryan Gosling.
He's an actor.
He's a famous actor.
- He's very famous.
- Okay.
So, Lance has been mistaken for Ryan Gosling 28 times.
- He counts the times? - He counts 28 times.
And for the last two years, Lance has studied Ryan Gosling's films and interviews, the way he moves and walks and everything he does.
Uh-huh.
So, when Lance gets fired from White Castle, he says to himself he says, "Lance, this is your moment.
You're going after your dream.
" So, then it's all about how he uses his resemblance to storm the Broadway scene and Hollywood.
- And then what? - Then you have to read it to find out.
Love to.
But the ending's gonna be tragic and funny at the same time.
Does Lance get caught? Eventually, of course.
Writing is very lonely, yes? I like being alone.
You do? Well, your students must be very impressed that you are a writer.
No.
They just think I'm a boring high-school English teacher.
Mmm! - Yes, please.
- Thank you.
Tell me more about you.
- I have a sister.
- Older? Younger? Older.

That went down good.

[doorbell chimes.]
Hi.
You're Daphne? Yes.
Do we know each other? No, but there's a man coming here to kill you.
- I'm sorry - Look, I know this sounds crazy.
A little bit.
Who are you? Doesn't matter.
His name is Javier.
Your husband hired him.
You should go.
- Chase.
- What? Your husband's name is Chase, right? Chase gave Javier a floor plan, a key to your house, a photo of you, and $50,000 to kill you.
Look, I am trying to help you.
Can you think of any reason your husband might want you dead, or is this a total shock? In two minutes, your husband is going to call you.
He'll tell you he can't find his wallet.
He'll ask you to go upstairs and check his bedside table.
Can we take the car in the driveway? I-I'm not leaving with you.
By the time your husband calls, it'll be too late.
The point of the phone call is to get you upstairs so that Javier can break in and kill you.
- Wait.
Wait.
Wait.
Stop.
- No, but I thought He's here.
Is there a gun in the house? - Yeah.
- Show me.
[mobile phone vibrating.]
Answer it.
Hi, baby.
No.
It's fine.
Your wallet.
Sure.
I can check.
I-I'm up here anyway.
Your wallet's not up here.
Do you want me to check downstairs or anywhere? Loaded? Okay.
You and Tyler have fun.
Call 911 now.
Why are you running the shower? Did you call the police? - Yes.
- Get in the closet.
Hide behind your clothes, turn off your phone, - and don't even breathe.
- Are you sure Javier's here.
The police aren't.
We have to deal with this.
[cocks gun.]
You have a shotgun pointed at your back.
Don't turn around.
Don't move.
Drop the gun.
Don't make the mistake thinking I'll tell you again.
Kick it away.
[gun slides across floor.]
Now put your hands above your head and turn around, slowly.
So, you're not an English teacher.
No.
You're a cop.
No.
I was in your room yesterday when you and Chase came in.
My room? I was in the closet, heard everything you said.
You're a thief.
Well then, we can work this out.
How's that? May I get something out of my pocket? Slowly.
The 4Runner in the driveway is new.
There is a bag with fif $50,000 in cash and all the info you need to kill Daphne.
Take the car.
Take the money.
What, and you just kill Daphne anyway? Yes.
Letty, go.
Ever feel like you crossed a line you didn't see? Did my husband pay you to kill me? Daphne Why? I've no idea.
But I am sure you do.
G-Give it to me.
I could kill you right this second.
Daphne, Daphne, calm down.
Drop the keys on the floor.
Take them.
Get out of here.
- What are you talking about? - The police are coming.
They'll arrest you, too.
Take his car and the money.
- I'm not leaving you alone.
- I'll be fine.
Daphne, Daphne.
You saved my life.
Go! [car alarm chirps.]
[sirens approaching.]
Pathetic.
Hi, Mom.
I want to see Jacob.
Yeah, that's not gonna happen.
Is he inside? You're violating your restraining order just standing there.
I've got something for him.
You want to give him something? Let it be your absence from his life.
I mean, shit, at least give the kid a chance.
You're so mean.
I signed him up for baseball.
Please, Mom, I haven't seen him in two years.
I'll call the cops if that's what it takes to get you off my property.
Five minutes.
I'd say you've got about three.
Please! [mouthing.]

I'm sorry I'm getting back to you so late.

Things went to hell in Asheville.
So I took a little road trip that didn't turn out so great.
I'll be honest.
I've been better.
Don't get mad, but I'm about to do a swan dive off the back of a wagon, pay a little visit to rock bottom.
It's not your fault.
You're not allowed to feel guilty about this.
It's me.
I'm a piece of shit.
Why keep fighting it, you know? So thanks for everything.
