And he thinks that you can help him do that.
[Gunshot.]
There.
If I could just magnify that, I could find out whose hand it is.
I'm gonna put you in holding with the others.
He seemed like a nice young man.
WOMAN: That kind of behavior will not be tolerated here.

Okay, look, I didn't want to trip on it.

You're welcome.

I'm telling you, this isn't right.
WOMAN: We should do something.

Me ma'd fix 'im something called a "Celtic Sandman.
" Dram of whiskey, dram of honey, just a pellet or two of rat poison.
Couple of swigs of that, you'll sleep so hard you won't even dream.
Hey, you wanna go out? Out where? I don't know.
Out, y'know? Have fun, get in trouble, maybe go back to that Hurt Locker place.
I should stay here with Denis.
What about Jesse? Nah.
He's, uh got his God thing goin' on.
Needs his rest.
It's already 2:30 in the morning.
I think you do, too, luv, huh? Yeah.
No.
Bad idea.
You're right.
Mnh-mnh.
- I'm going to bed.

HOOVER: Hey I'm so glad I got the landlord to let us use the back staircase.
Super handy.
Two sugars.
Like ya like.
So, this is worth all the risk huh? "The best way to know your target is through 'concealed intimacy.
" It's in the handbook.
So, uh, when's the big boss man get here? Boss man? Yeah.
Herr Starr.
He's on his way.
What is that? Boo Berry.
Want some? Those are why you look like that.
[Breathing Raspingly.]
[Doctor Speaking French.]
How's it going? [Sighs.]
Bit of a rough night.
Doctor said it's no use in hospital.
Just give him a sedative and told me just be here for him, you know? - [Speaking French.]
- [Denis Coughs.]
Anything I can do? Nah, we're good.
Uh you headed out? I thought I'd go to Circuit Works.
Right.
Okay.
Fun.
Takin' the God audition.
It's your idea, right? See if they can enhance the video, blow up the image? Oh, yeah.
Right.
Right.
[Denis Coughs.]
Look for serial numbers on the barrel of the gun? See if they can trace the Back to the owner.
Yeah.
Like they do on the shows.
Makes sense.
[Denis Coughs.]
It's my only lead.
It's all I got.
Well, it's a good idea.
I'm glad I thought of it.
[Chuckles.]
Tell me how you get on, alright? Alright.
[Wheezing.]
Padre? Um You know when you were asking if there was anything you could do to help? With Denis? You want me to pray for him? No, Christ, no.
[Chuckles.]
[Clears Throat.]
Well, sure, if it'd help like, but that's not what I was thinkin'.
- What? - [Denis Coughing.]
Look, I don't know if it's possible or even doable or how your power works there in terms of guidelines and parameters What the bloody rules are, per se, but Padre, he's dying, alright? - Maybe you could just - Jesus, Cass.
I mean I'm not sure Genesis could help, but even if it could I just I-I don't think that's what it's for.
Right.
Of course.
Prob-Probably not.
- You understand? - Yeah.
Alright.
[Footsteps Departing.]
[Door Opens.]
- Hey.
- Hey.
Where were you? Hurt Locker.
What is it with you and that place? I don't get it.
Obviously.
You okay? Yeah.
Alright.
Good.
Goin' to Circuit Works.
Why? Show them the God audition, see if they can blow up an image of the gun.
Y'know, trace the shooter.
Huh.
It was Cassidy's idea.
Can I come? Sure.
MAN OVER PA: Your attention, please.
Don't forget our anniversary sale, coming up this weekend from 6:00 to 9:00 a.
m.
Saturday.
- Next.
- Come on down.
So.
I have this video that's unclear, and I heard, from a friend, that you could improve the picture.
Like they do on the shows.
The shows? Yeah, y'know, like, the cop shows.
When they blow up an image to see a license plate or blurry sign, serial numbers on a gun [Laughter.]
And, uh, what are you looking for? Serial numbers on a gun.
We'll take a look.
Give us a minute.
You should know there are things on here that, out of context, might seem confusing.
This is New Orleans.
We've seen it all before.
And worse.
I just want to know if you can see the serial numbers.
Right.
Give us a minute.
WOMAN OVER PA: Appliances and Electronics, pick up 241.
It's got an auto-defrost, ice-maker right here.
Each one of these shelves can hold a gallon of liquid.
Can I get it today? What are you doing? Oh, we needed a fridge.
I can set an order in 20 minutes.
- Great.
- Great.
Let's go.
I'm still waiting on the Dork Dudes.
- The what? - The serial numbers? The reason we came here.
Remember? Oh, right.
Yeah.
You need me for that? [Grunts.]
This is how good behavior will be dealt with.
In other news, my team and I have discovered the source of our technical difficulties, so we should have you back in your individual Hell cells in short order.
[All Murmuring.]
Yes.
I'm excited too.
Your cells, for those of you that don't know, are powered by a central generator.
From this generator, each block draws its allowance of power An allowance a very specific allowance based on personnel.
Based on you.
But problems can occur Problems like the ones we've been experiencing When there are more yous than there should be.
When one of the yous isn't supposed to be here.
My question is: who? Don't be afraid.
The sooner I know, the sooner I can get you out of here.
Who is it then? Who doesn't belong in Hell? Going once Going twice - Uh, i-it's me.
- It's me.
- It's me.
- No, I raised my hand fist.
- No, over here.
- It's me.
- It's me! - I don't belong here.
MAN: Put your hands down.
[Grunts.]
Alright, we'll do it that way.
Don't worry, whoever you are, we'll find you.
[Cell Door Opens, Closes.]
It's me.
I know it is.
Single mother.
Three kids.
I-I gave them everything.
Cooking, cleaning And they weren't easy those kids.
I-I was at the end of my rope.
And then you set them on fire.
Because it was never enough! Okay, well, I'm the one who doesn't belong here 'cause I didn't kill anybody.
You raped four women.
It was "date rape.
" There's a difference.
No means no.
Well, they said "yes" to the date, didn't they? Ask my Dad's lawyer.
That's implied consent.
MUTTON CHOPS: I think I should go.
The things I did, I did them for public good.
[Whispers.]
It's you, isn't it? You don't belong.
[Indistinct Conversations.]
Is that so? And what did you do? [Chuckles.]
[Sighs.]
You know my crimes, Eugene.
Why don't you tell me about yours, from one evil person to another? [Sighs.]
You, uh defiled her? Maimed her? Murdered? You don't belong here, my friend.
Don't be fooled.
Mannering's not letting anybody get out.
When I first came here, they had high hopes for me.
They made me a custodian.
I had free run of the place.
I saw things.
I learned how they think.
Someone gets out of Hell to tell the tale? Never.
Listen to me, Eugene.
Hell is more than Zagnuts and flat basketballs.
There are other places they can put you.
[Ball Thuds.]
[Grunts.]
[All Murmuring.]
That was nice of you, Eugene.
- [Coughing.]
- Alright.
Oh, it's alright.
It's alright.
It's alright.
Oh, it's alright.
Get it all there.
Good boy.
That's it.
That's it.
Alright.
Alright, lie down.
Lie back.
Come on, now.
Lie back.
- [Wheezing.]
- Rest.
That's it.
- [Coughing.]
- It's alright.
Nice fridge.
Hey, Tule.
Can I ask you a question? Yep.
D'ya ever think y'know, maybe Maybe you'd want to be me? - Nope.
- Not me, exactly.
Christ, I barely want that.
I mean, the other part, you know, like, what I am.
What, the the vampire part? The not dying part.
If you could have that, would you want it? Um Live forever, huh? I guess it'd be cool.
You don't have to worry, 'cause nothin' hurts you, you know? There's nothin' to be afraid of.
Yeah, well, things still hurt.
You know what I mean.
You got all your fingers chopped off.
A coupla these bad boys later, and they're back.
Yeah, well, alright.
Yeah, that's a point, to be sure.
That's a bonus, alright? But there's trade-offs, like I used to love the beach.
When I was a boy, me Ma used to take us to the beach in the summer.
Me and me brother.
Every Sunday.
Every other stupid git be down on his knees in church.
We'd have the whole run of the place.
I loved it.
[Chuckles.]
Christ, I can't remember the last time I was on a beach.
Yup.
Me neither.
I hate the beach.
[Freezer Door Closes.]
And there's the boredom.
You've heard every joke Drugs barely work.
And then everyone you ever cared or loved just Just dies.
Except you.
Yep.
That sucks.
Yeah.
[Dog Barks In Distance.]
[Tulip Grunts.]
MAN: From the ocean floor below to the mountain peaks above.
From the food you eat to the mess you make.
We're behind it.
Making a today great for you and a tomorrow great for us.
- [Feedback.]
- [Man Clears Throat.]
MAN OVER PA: Custer Jesse.
The Dork Docs will see you now.
- Dude - You did it.
It worked? Enjoy the brilliance.
So we punch in nice and tight right there, and Oh, now what do we see there on the gun barrel? I don't see anything.
No.
You don't.
[Muzak Plays.]
I don't see anything.
No serial numbers.
That's right.
They've been scrubbed off.
There's nothin' on this tape that can identify who's holding that gun.
But I want to know who's holding that gun.
Don't we know who's holding that gun? - [Whispering.]
You.
- It's not me.
Why would I bring it in here if it was me? To cover your ass.
I thought you were worried about someone tracing this back to you.
But no he was hoping that we'd find the serial numbers.
Yes, like I said before.
I need to know who's behind this.
Yeah.
That's tough.
[Quietly.]
There has to be some other way.
There has to be.
[Normal Voice.]
Alright.
Start it from the beginning.
[Keyboard Keys Clacking.]
- [Tape Rewinding.]
- [Sighs.]
Stop.
There.
What is that? Okay, that's a slate.
When you're making a movie, you In the reflection.
Behind the camera.
That's a face.
[Mouse Clicks.]
ARNIE: Or a coffee pot.
I don't know.
I think he might be right.
The resolution's completely deteriorated.
Maybe if we did a-a pixel recalibration.
Oh, yeah.
Can you do it? BOTH: Give us a minute.
An Extrapolator.
I told you we could make things worse.
Don't! Aah! [Groans.]
[Electricity Crackles.]
[Whirring.]
[Crying.]
You have to.
You're the only one I can count on to do what I say.
Look, Tracy, it's like what Mary Poppins says in "The Sound of Music", "When God closes a door, he always opens up a window.
" You're right.
I used to love Mary Poppins.
[Sniffles, Sighs.]
[Sighs.]
Thanks, Eugene.
[Sniffles.]
[Sniffles.]
[Gasps.]
What the heck? I I'm I'm sorry.
I just thought that You like me? I Yeah.
Wait You're not mad? [Chuckles.]
Yes, I'm mad mad that you didn't say anything.
What? I like you too! [Chuckles.]
I feel like singing.
Me too.

One last call for alcohol So finish your whiskey or beer Closing time You don't have to go home but you can't, stay, here I know who I wanna take me home I know who I wanna take me home I know who I wanna take me home Take me ho-o-ome - [Chuckles.]

[Chuckles.]
[Toilet Flushes.]
Oh.

I kind of already promised myself to someone else.
What? Who? God.
[Door Opens.]
Eugene! I didn't know you were here! Preacher.
How you doing? Tracy tells me you got a big chemistry test coming up this week.
You gonna be ready? I Yeah, I-I think so.
Good.
That goes for you too, Tracy.
The more effort you guys put in now, the more options you're gonna have later on in life.
[Chuckles.]
I do most of my homework on the bus on the way home from school.
Of course you do.
Tracy Preacher's not God.
He is to me.
No.
No.
No, guys! Cut it out! Guys! Cut it out! No! No! I said stop! Stop!!! MRS.

Hard to recuperate when you're inhaling the smell of your own sick.

[Cell Door Opens.]
[Grunts.]
[Cell Door Closes.]
[Groaning.]
[Grunts.]
HITLER: Are you okay? You had to see for yourself.
You had to see.
Once they find out you are the mistake, that is where they will put you.
And not just for an hour or two, but forever.
I know.
It's not fair.
[Scoffs.]
You have to trust me, Eugene.
I want to help you.
[Scoffs.]
[Whispers.]
To escape, of course.
[Knob Rattles.]
[Knock On Door.]
FEATHERSTONE: Who Who is it? Um, your neighbor.
[Lock Disengages.]
Who's out there with you? Nobody.
It's just me.
What do you want? Um, I'm just going 'round all the apartments and fixing up the holes.
If you want.
I-I thought you were my ex.
Come Come on in.
God I don't know why I'm praying when I know you're not there, but if this is your plan for me, and you can hear me, I'm asking for your help.
I gave up a piece of my soul to find you.
Don't let it be for nothin'.
Please.
MAN OVER PA: Custer Jesse.
Please come to the Dork Docs.
Any luck? Sorry, man.
We've got nothin'.
What? ARNIE: We enlarged the image, ran it through this pixel manipulator, but He's right.
It was a coffee pot.
I guess maybe they had coffee before they killed him.
Or after they killed him.
- Right.
- Yeah.
Nothin'.
All this for nothin'.
Is there anything else we can help you with, sir? Yeah, I'm looking for God! You seen Him?! You got Him back there?! [Muzak Plays.]
[Indistinct Conversations.]
I'm sorry.
Oh.
Hey.
Your DVD.
Like you said, there's nothing on it.
[Whirring.]
I was gonna do that sooner or later but thank you.
Yeah, I heard the shooting was pretty bad.
Yeah.
It was.
Is that why you got a gun? Oh.
No, that's, um for my ex.
Rodney can be, uh unpredictable.
Where's all your furniture? Um, I just got here, so I had to leave kind of quick.
So, for now, it's just table, chairs, and an air mattress.
- [Chuckles.]
- And a TV.
Oh, right.
Creature comforts.
Yeah.
Boo Berry.
Oh, yeah.
My favorite.
[Chuckles.]
Me too.
Count Chocula can suck it.
[Laughs.]
I'm Tulip.
I'm Jennie.
Yeah, so, you can let it set an hour, maybe.
Then you can sand, paint, whatever.
Oh.
Thanks again.
Mm.
You ever put on a bullet proof vest and get shot in the chest? I can't say that I have.
Hmm.
But it sounds fun.
[Chuckles.]
It is.
[Laughs.]
We should go sometime.
I-I-I'd like that.
[Ringing.]
SEAMUS: What? Hey, it's Pronsias.
What do you want? Money? Ah, it's good to hear your voice, Seamus.
I've no patience for your dancing about.
How much this time? I'm not looking for your handouts.
[Chuckles.]
Oh, no? Then what? I have a son.
And I imagine you have dozens, but congratulations.
No, it's not like that.
Look, Denis is not new, alright? He's old.
And he's sick.
[Sighs.]
How well do you know him? I just told you he's me son, didn't I? You know what I'm askin'.
What's he like? What's his prevailing temperament? How well do you know him, Pronsias? I know that he's dyin', Seamus, alright? I know that much.
Don't do it.
Let him die.

And he thinks that you can help him do that.

What is it with you and that place? I don't get it.
Obviously.
You okay? Yeah.
Alright.
Good.
Goin' to Circuit Works.
Why? Show them the God audition, see if they can blow up an image of the gun.
Y'know, trace the shooter.
Huh.
It was Cassidy's idea.
Can I come? Sure.
MAN OVER PA: Your attention, please.
Don't forget our anniversary sale, coming up this weekend from 6:00 to 9:00 a.
m.
Saturday.
- Next.
- Come on down.
So.
I have this video that's unclear, and I heard, from a friend, that you could improve the picture.
Like they do on the shows.
The shows? Yeah, y'know, like, the cop shows.
When they blow up an image to see a license plate or blurry sign, serial numbers on a gun [Laughter.]
And, uh, what are you looking for? Serial numbers on a gun.
We'll take a look.
Give us a minute.
You should know there are things on here that, out of context, might seem confusing.
This is New Orleans.
We've seen it all before.
And worse.
I just want to know if you can see the serial numbers.
Right.
Give us a minute.
WOMAN OVER PA: Appliances and Electronics, pick up 241.
It's got an auto-defrost, ice-maker right here.
Each one of these shelves can hold a gallon of liquid.
Can I get it today? What are you doing? Oh, we needed a fridge.
I can set an order in 20 minutes.
- Great.
- Great.
Let's go.
I'm still waiting on the Dork Dudes.
- The what? - The serial numbers? The reason we came here.
Remember? Oh, right.
Yeah.
You need me for that? [Grunts.]
This is how good behavior will be dealt with.
In other news, my team and I have discovered the source of our technical difficulties, so we should have you back in your individual Hell cells in short order.
[All Murmuring.]
Yes.
I'm excited too.
Your cells, for those of you that don't know, are powered by a central generator.
From this generator, each block draws its allowance of power An allowance a very specific allowance based on personnel.
Based on you.
But problems can occur Problems like the ones we've been experiencing When there are more yous than there should be.
When one of the yous isn't supposed to be here.
My question is: who? Don't be afraid.
The sooner I know, the sooner I can get you out of here.
Who is it then? Who doesn't belong in Hell? Going once Going twice - Uh, i-it's me.
- It's me.
- It's me.
- No, I raised my hand fist.
- No, over here.
- It's me.
- It's me! - I don't belong here.
MAN: Put your hands down.
[Grunts.]
Alright, we'll do it that way.
Don't worry, whoever you are, we'll find you.
[Cell Door Opens, Closes.]
It's me.
I know it is.
Single mother.
Three kids.
I-I gave them everything.
Cooking, cleaning And they weren't easy those kids.
I-I was at the end of my rope.
And then you set them on fire.
Because it was never enough! Okay, well, I'm the one who doesn't belong here 'cause I didn't kill anybody.
You raped four women.
It was "date rape.
" There's a difference.
No means no.
Well, they said "yes" to the date, didn't they? Ask my Dad's lawyer.
That's implied consent.
MUTTON CHOPS: I think I should go.
The things I did, I did them for public good.
[Whispers.]
It's you, isn't it? You don't belong.
[Indistinct Conversations.]
Is that so? And what did you do? [Chuckles.]
[Sighs.]
You know my crimes, Eugene.
Why don't you tell me about yours, from one evil person to another? [Sighs.]
You, uh defiled her? Maimed her? Murdered? You don't belong here, my friend.
Don't be fooled.
Mannering's not letting anybody get out.
When I first came here, they had high hopes for me.
They made me a custodian.
I had free run of the place.
I saw things.
I learned how they think.
Someone gets out of Hell to tell the tale? Never.
Listen to me, Eugene.
Hell is more than Zagnuts and flat basketballs.
There are other places they can put you.
[Ball Thuds.]
[Grunts.]
[All Murmuring.]
That was nice of you, Eugene.
- [Coughing.]
- Alright.
Oh, it's alright.
It's alright.
It's alright.
Oh, it's alright.
Get it all there.
Good boy.
That's it.
That's it.
Alright.
Alright, lie down.
Lie back.
Come on, now.
Lie back.
- [Wheezing.]
- Rest.
That's it.
- [Coughing.]
- It's alright.
Nice fridge.
Hey, Tule.
Can I ask you a question? Yep.
D'ya ever think y'know, maybe Maybe you'd want to be me? - Nope.
- Not me, exactly.
Christ, I barely want that.
I mean, the other part, you know, like, what I am.
What, the the vampire part? The not dying part.
If you could have that, would you want it? Um Live forever, huh? I guess it'd be cool.
You don't have to worry, 'cause nothin' hurts you, you know? There's nothin' to be afraid of.
Yeah, well, things still hurt.
You know what I mean.
You got all your fingers chopped off.
A coupla these bad boys later, and they're back.
Yeah, well, alright.
Yeah, that's a point, to be sure.
That's a bonus, alright? But there's trade-offs, like I used to love the beach.
When I was a boy, me Ma used to take us to the beach in the summer.
Me and me brother.
Every Sunday.
Every other stupid git be down on his knees in church.
We'd have the whole run of the place.
I loved it.
[Chuckles.]
Christ, I can't remember the last time I was on a beach.
Yup.
Me neither.
I hate the beach.
[Freezer Door Closes.]
And there's the boredom.
You've heard every joke Drugs barely work.
And then everyone you ever cared or loved just Just dies.
Except you.
Yep.
That sucks.
Yeah.
[Dog Barks In Distance.]
[Tulip Grunts.]
MAN: From the ocean floor below to the mountain peaks above.
From the food you eat to the mess you make.
We're behind it.
Making a today great for you and a tomorrow great for us.
- [Feedback.]
- [Man Clears Throat.]
MAN OVER PA: Custer Jesse.
The Dork Docs will see you now.
- Dude - You did it.
It worked? Enjoy the brilliance.
So we punch in nice and tight right there, and Oh, now what do we see there on the gun barrel? I don't see anything.
No.
You don't.
[Muzak Plays.]
I don't see anything.
No serial numbers.
That's right.
They've been scrubbed off.
There's nothin' on this tape that can identify who's holding that gun.
But I want to know who's holding that gun.
Don't we know who's holding that gun? - [Whispering.]
You.
- It's not me.
Why would I bring it in here if it was me? To cover your ass.
I thought you were worried about someone tracing this back to you.
But no he was hoping that we'd find the serial numbers.
Yes, like I said before.
I need to know who's behind this.
Yeah.
That's tough.
[Quietly.]
There has to be some other way.
There has to be.
[Normal Voice.]
Alright.
Start it from the beginning.
[Keyboard Keys Clacking.]
- [Tape Rewinding.]
- [Sighs.]
Stop.
There.
What is that? Okay, that's a slate.
When you're making a movie, you In the reflection.
Behind the camera.
That's a face.
[Mouse Clicks.]
ARNIE: Or a coffee pot.
I don't know.
I think he might be right.
The resolution's completely deteriorated.
Maybe if we did a-a pixel recalibration.
Oh, yeah.
Can you do it? BOTH: Give us a minute.
An Extrapolator.
I told you we could make things worse.
Don't! Aah! [Groans.]
[Electricity Crackles.]
[Whirring.]
[Crying.]
You have to.
You're the only one I can count on to do what I say.
Look, Tracy, it's like what Mary Poppins says in "The Sound of Music", "When God closes a door, he always opens up a window.
" You're right.
I used to love Mary Poppins.
[Sniffles, Sighs.]
[Sighs.]
Thanks, Eugene.
[Sniffles.]
[Sniffles.]
[Gasps.]
What the heck? I I'm I'm sorry.
I just thought that You like me? I Yeah.

I kind of already promised myself to someone else.
What? Who? God.
[Door Opens.]
Eugene! I didn't know you were here! Preacher.
How you doing? Tracy tells me you got a big chemistry test coming up this week.
You gonna be ready? I Yeah, I-I think so.
Good.
That goes for you too, Tracy.
The more effort you guys put in now, the more options you're gonna have later on in life.
[Chuckles.]
I do most of my homework on the bus on the way home from school.
Of course you do.
Tracy Preacher's not God.
He is to me.
No.
No.
No, guys! Cut it out! Guys! Cut it out! No! No! I said stop! Stop!!! MRS.
LOACH: Eugene?! I called your father! He's gonna be very upset with you! Finish the job.

Hard to recuperate when you're inhaling the smell of your own sick.

[Cell Door Opens.]
[Grunts.]
[Cell Door Closes.]
[Groaning.]
[Grunts.]
HITLER: Are you okay? You had to see for yourself.
You had to see.
Once they find out you are the mistake, that is where they will put you.
And not just for an hour or two, but forever.
I know.
It's not fair.
[Scoffs.]
You have to trust me, Eugene.
I want to help you.
[Scoffs.]
[Whispers.]
To escape, of course.
[Knob Rattles.]
[Knock On Door.]
FEATHERSTONE: Who Who is it? Um, your neighbor.
[Lock Disengages.]
Who's out there with you? Nobody.
It's just me.
What do you want? Um, I'm just going 'round all the apartments and fixing up the holes.
If you want.
I-I thought you were my ex.
Come Come on in.
God I don't know why I'm praying when I know you're not there, but if this is your plan for me, and you can hear me, I'm asking for your help.
I gave up a piece of my soul to find you.
Don't let it be for nothin'.
Please.
MAN OVER PA: Custer Jesse.
Please come to the Dork Docs.
Any luck? Sorry, man.
We've got nothin'.
What? ARNIE: We enlarged the image, ran it through this pixel manipulator, but He's right.
It was a coffee pot.
I guess maybe they had coffee before they killed him.
Or after they killed him.
- Right.
- Yeah.
Nothin'.
All this for nothin'.
Is there anything else we can help you with, sir? Yeah, I'm looking for God! You seen Him?! You got Him back there?! [Muzak Plays.]
[Indistinct Conversations.]
I'm sorry.
Oh.
Hey.
Your DVD.
Like you said, there's nothing on it.
[Whirring.]
I was gonna do that sooner or later but thank you.
Yeah, I heard the shooting was pretty bad.
Yeah.
It was.
Is that why you got a gun? Oh.
No, that's, um for my ex.
Rodney can be, uh unpredictable.
Where's all your furniture? Um, I just got here, so I had to leave kind of quick.
So, for now, it's just table, chairs, and an air mattress.
- [Chuckles.]
- And a TV.
Oh, right.
Creature comforts.
Yeah.
Boo Berry.
Oh, yeah.
My favorite.
[Chuckles.]
Me too.
Count Chocula can suck it.
[Laughs.]
I'm Tulip.
I'm Jennie.
Yeah, so, you can let it set an hour, maybe.
Then you can sand, paint, whatever.
Oh.
Thanks again.
Mm.
You ever put on a bullet proof vest and get shot in the chest? I can't say that I have.
Hmm.
But it sounds fun.
[Chuckles.]
It is.
[Laughs.]
We should go sometime.
I-I-I'd like that.
[Ringing.]
SEAMUS: What? Hey, it's Pronsias.
What do you want? Money? Ah, it's good to hear your voice, Seamus.
I've no patience for your dancing about.
How much this time? I'm not looking for your handouts.
[Chuckles.]
Oh, no? Then what? I have a son.
And I imagine you have dozens, but congratulations.
No, it's not like that.
Look, Denis is not new, alright? He's old.
And he's sick.
[Sighs.]
How well do you know him? I just told you he's me son, didn't I? You know what I'm askin'.
What's he like? What's his prevailing temperament? How well do you know him, Pronsias? I know that he's dyin', Seamus, alright? I know that much.
Don't do it.
Let him die.
