Party Down s01e08 Episode Script

- So what? We're awkward now? - Nope.
Who's awkward? Well, I'm not the one who's moping around all day and calling people whores just because they were talking to Rick Fox.
Roman called you a whore, I never called you a whore.
- That's what you were thinking.
- Alright, well, you were flirting - quite a bit.
- Yeah.
Who cares? Do you care about that, 'cause I thought we agreed that this was casual and this was no hang up, so if you wanna turn this into the same miserable, jealous bullshit, then like, let me know, 'cause I didn't sign up for that.
Me neither, ma'am.
Alright, so you're still mad at me too, I guess.
No, I'm having a wonderful day.
I told you there was a line.
Alright, so I'm supposed to hold off on Casey until you sleep with her first.
Is that how it is? Now you get it.
Yes, that's exactly what that means.
I heard all that, you crazy lunatics.
- Maybe stop talking about me.
- You know - Good work! - Fuckin' asshole.
That's so all you.
You don't shit where you eat, buddy.
You're just pissed because I shat where I ate and now you wanna eat at that same restaurant where I was shitting.
Who, Casey? Come on, guys.
When you makin' a movie, stars hook-up all the time.
And everybody is cool with that.
Shit where you eat, what does it even mean? Well, it's all about the circle of life, Kyle.
It's that we're all a part of this universal cycle.
Okay, so like, life and death Regeneration.
Okay, like Hinduism? - Exactly.
- What the fuck is wrong with you two? It means you don't shit in the same facility that you're eating in.
Because you may, at some point, eat you own shit.
Okay.
Is this part still about me? Because if it is, I swear to God, I'm gonna freak the fuck out! You don't have the poster above your bed? - No, I don't like that fucking movie.
- Fuck Close Encounters.
When they do arrive on Earth, they're not gonna be cute and snugly.
They're gonna be a super advanced society and we're gonna be fuckin' ants to them, they're not gonna sing and wave and friends, watch your foes.
It's not gonna be a fuckin' musical.
They're gonna take him and everyone else and feed us at the giant processors and strain us for our chemicals.
- You don't know that.
- Shut the fuck up.

We fucked in the sink, we fucked in the dinghy.
- What does this have to do with work? - Or with anything? Henry and Casey are fighting and it's starting to affect our work.
- That is a lie - Now, is it a performance issue because sometimes, really nice guys can have a hard time seeing girls - like you and me as fuck objects.
- Casey, I just wish you'd have consulted with me before you did anything with Henry.
I actually have a little experience with workplace romance myself You do? With who? - Sure I do, with Marina.
- Marina? The girl with the superpose hair right up here? And the interesting personality.
It's just not a good idea, I mean, in the workplace, things get tensed, relationships get strained.

You are lower than animal.
" And there's no articles, This thing's terribly written.
"Gobi on ground cries like woman.
"Crowjar puts gun down.
Crowjar: I will kill you "like man with hands.
"Gobi cries "and Crowjar takes knife and first cuts off head and then all parts.
"And puts him in bags and goes to the sea.
" That should be a new fucking scene.
"And puts Gobi in the water deep where no one will find.
" - As you see - You're not kidding.
That is terrible.
- No, this is what happened.
- What do you mean? This is basically a badly written and poorly plotted confession.
- My God.
- Yeah, and that's not all.
In the end, he finds the guy who squeals on him.
And kills him too.
A fat guy with glasses.
Here we go.
"Mulak is fat man with womanish glasses.
"Because eyes like heart is weak.
" Fat guy with glasses.
Fat guy with glasses.

But instead of using guns or clubs, I assault you with emotions.
Or even knifes.
Knive, that's right! What, is that your girlfriend over there? - Yeah! - What a Euro-trash piece of work.
You know, this is starting to feel a little bit like jealousy.
- Cause I thought we were - I'm observing.

But there are things we know that are greater than complications! Loving, companionship.
This special somebody who keep life from becoming vast, - dark - Just do it.
Pit of despair.
Nothing else matters! And so, I I take from your example.
I turn to Ula and say, "Ula, will you be my wife?" Ula, will you be my wife? Party back on, music! I've got a Joan Van Ark story for you that will blow your mind.
But first, I have to take a leak.

Ricky, he's got a knife! He's got a knife! Ricky! He read the script, Rick! Zoltan, no.
They think you're going to kill me.
- What do you mean? - In your script, it says they kill fat guy with glasses - and they thought - That it is you? I kill you, I kill you, I kill you! I kill you back, I kill you back, I kill you back! He's my oldest friend.

- It's just script.
It's make believe.
- Fiction.
- Hey, flat top, Cognac! Hey, alright So, you read it? - What do you think? - I loved it, I really really liked it.
That's great.
What is your favorite part? You know, there are so many good parts when Mulak grabs his mother by the throat and throws her out the window on the house, and - it - What else? When Mulak makes his grandmother pick up the food that he dropped.
How was the syntax? So maybe we can just call it even, you know.
Cause - Like I flirted, and then you flirted.
- No.
- So? - Definitely not.
- Why not? - Because you totally made out with that girl! - Muky told me everything.

- Do, do! Okay, okay, tell me, tell me.
What else is good? The part when he, the character, cuts off Gobi's nuts, and shows them to him and says "You nuts.
" But I think you meant "You are nuts.
" - Minor grammatical error.
- Ricky! Let's go, man! Come on! That's my favorite part too.
You like all best part.
