Love (2016) s02e10 Episode Script

Liberty Down

1 So I checked Waze, and it said it's, like, 35 minutes to the airport.
That seems, like, super quick, right? What's the matter? You okay? I still feel a little shaken up from that fight the other day.
I mean, it was a little weird, but I'm willing to move through it.
Move past it.
I just think it's really hard, 'cause now you're going away.
Yeah, but it's only gonna be, like, 24 days.
In the grand scheme of things, that's not that long.
I just really don't deal well with separation, Gus.
Oh.
Uh okay.
Little scary to hear before we separate for a month, but I think what would help is if we have a check-in plan.
Sure.
Yeah, whatever you need.
What what are you thinking? Uh Why don't you call me every day when you're done with work? That way we don't have to think about it.
Yeah, I guess I could call you, probably - Let's say 9:00 for me.
- Okay.
Which would be, like, 6:00 for you.
That work? Yeah, and if I write you, write me back quickly.
- 'Cause I start to spin out.
- Sure.
Sure, sure.
Yeah, that's great.
You take too long, I'm gonna get on a plane to Atlanta.
- [chuckles.]
Okay.
- Okay.
I'm gonna miss you.
I'll miss you, too.
[Gus sighs.]
- Okay.
- Okay.
- I don't want you to be late.
- All right.
Thanks for the gift.
Bye-bye.
[scoffs.]
[theme music playing.]
[Arya.]
Help! [both grunting.]
[groans, screams.]
- [shrieks.]
- You think your daddy's gonna save you just 'cause you're his little girl? No, he's gonna save me 'cause he's the commander-in-chief and I'm an American citizen.
An American citizen.
We know what America's all about.
And the president's forgotten.
[grunts.]
[Arya grunts.]
[Arya shrieks.]
- [Arya groans.]
- [coughing.]
You forgot something.
- What's that? - You dropped this.
- [gun fires.]
- [Victor.]
And cut.
- [Victor claps.]
- [woman.]
Cut, cut, cut.
[indistinct whispering.]
Uh, great job, Arya.
Victor wants to move on to a quick insert of your finger on the trigger of the gun.
No, I'm done.
I'm tired.
Okay.
- She's great.
- [chuckles.]
Well, deep down, she's a little sweetheart.
Hey, just a reminder, Tommy, that, uh after lunch she's only got, like, two more hours left to film.
- Yeah.
- So I don't know if you could let Victor know - for me.
Cool.
Thanks, yeah.
- Yeah.
Yeah, sure.
Um, and it doesn't have to be, like, right now, but it's probably better sooner than later.
Oh, no, no, I'm sorry.
Yeah, I will.
It's just that I know he has, like, 12 things on his brain right now.
- Of course.
Yeah.
- Yeah, you know.
- Definitely.
Yeah.
- Yeah.
- He's got a tough job.
- [chuckles.]
- You, too.
- Oh.
I see you running around set.
You're wearing all these different hats.
- It's impressive.
Respect.
- Yeah.
[both chuckle.]
Well, I'm the president of development, I guess.
You know.
I mean, I'm his assistant, and his - translator, and his collaborator - Mmm-hmm.
- therapist, at times.
- [laughs.]
- Life coach, I guess.
Yeah.
- Wow.
Very cool.
How long have you guys known each other? - About nine years.
Yeah.
- [softly.]
Wow.
Yeah, before that I worked at the UN.
- United Nations.
Yeah.
- Oh, sure.
I don't know.
It's cool, I guess.
- [laughs.]
- Yeah.
No, I - I spent most of my life in South Dakota.
- Oh, really? - I feel like a country mouse.
- Country mouse? - [laughs.]
That's - Yeah.
Yeah.
- Oh, hi.
- [both speaking Korean.]
- [Victor.]
Teacher.
- [speaking Korean.]
- Oh.
- Gus.
- Victor.
Victor.
- Victor.
Hey, I just wanted to tell you, I'm a huge fan of The Sorting Fields.
I loved it.
Action-packed.
[chuckles.]
It has a good script.
We worked hard on that one.
- A great script.
- Yeah.
Can you let Victor know that I liked - I don't know how to say - [speaking Korean.]
- I loved the movie or I'm a big fan.
- [speaking Korean.]
[stammers.]
Um [whispering.]
Believe it or not, he thinks that movie sucks.
Oh.
Yeah, he gets really upset when I bring it up.
- The last time he punched a grip, so - Oh.
I mean, if you want me to, I could tell him that - No, please.
- It's probably better.
- Keep that foot out of my mouth.
- You don't wanna see him mad.
Thanks for looking out for me.
- I got you.
- [chuckling.]
- [both speaking Korean.]
- Okay.
Thank you.
Bye.
[Mickey.]
Aren't you tired? Haven't you been up since, like, 6:30 in the morning? [Gus on phone.]
Uh, I'm a little tired, but I'm okay.
I'm, actually, uh - [clicks tongue.]
a little horny.
- Are you? Should we do something about that? Oh, my God, seriously? That'd be awesome, 'cause I've never, uh Well, never mind.
You've never had phone sex? No.
Well, now we have to.
Yeah? All right.
Okay, sure.
Yeah.
I'm down.
Okay.
- Get your dick out.
- Okay.
Oh, um Can you give me, like, one minute? I just need total privacy.
You're in a hotel room.
Don't you already have that? Yeah, but, uh, there's other people who are here from the movie who are staying at the hotel, and I don't want them to - Just Sorry, one moment.
- [sighs.]
- Hang that up here - [vibrator humming.]
Set the mood - [vibrating continues.]
- Okay.
All right.
All right.
Now I'm ready.
Are you hard? [sighs.]
Fuck.
- What? - I think I put the wrong tag on.
All right.
Just hurry, okay? This train's leaving the station.
- [door rattling.]
- I did.
Good thing I checked.
Okay.
[humming.]
[exhales.]
All right.
Where were we? Suck on my tits.
[grunts.]
I miss you so much, Mickey.
I wish I was there right now fucking you.
[pants.]
She pulls in over 200,000 listeners per week on this podcast where she talks about sex, from her bed.
She gets huge stars, like, A-list.
She does one with Gwyneth Paltrow where Gwyneth talks about giving a blow job for the first time.
I actually went and bought her cookbooks.
I eat quinoa now.
[Erika.]
If we could pull someone like that in, I think the Subzero guys would really, really love that.
[Erika.]
Stella, hi! We were just talking about you.
- I'm Erika.
Nice to meet you.
- Hey.
Oop! Red rover.
[chuckles.]
Here I come.
Next week, Nicki Minaj is gonna be on, and I'm just like, "What is happening?" I've been obsessed with her boobs since I was 15.
Stella, it's pretty simple.
I mean, everybody at Gravity just loves this podcast, and, yeah, we wanna help you take this to the next level.
Well, I'm kinda happy with the level I'm at.
You know, I like talking about whatever I want.
You know? I wanna be able to talk about how I texted a picture of my asshole to a guy after our first date once.
[Mickey.]
You can talk about that here.
You should talk about why they call female orgasms "coming.
" Because it makes women feel like they should just be squirting streams of vaginal fluid every time they fuck.
- [both laughing.]
- Wait, can I use that? - Yeah.
- [Erika chuckles.]
[laughs.]
[stammers.]
Yeah, I had made that observation before.
That's an observation I've made before.
Uh Hey, uh, Mickey, why don't you take Stella on, like, a tour of the station? - Sure.
Yeah, I can do that.
- Sweet.
- Thanks.
- [Erika.]
Great.
- [Stella.]
Bye, guys.
- [Truman.]
Miss you guys.
Bye, have fun! [man.]
You guys know what your next movie is yet? We're thinking about this project about Arctic explorers.
But the script isn't there yet.
- Nice.
- It's pretty cool.
- Yeah.
- [chuckles.]
That sounds cool.
- Did you say Arctic explorers? - Yeah.
Did you read that article about this island up north that's, like, basically where World War III is gonna start? - Let's assume we haven't.
- Oh! Oh, my God.
It's amazing, 'cause the Well, you know, the polar ice caps are melting, so now these, like, new islands are kind of forming up in the North Pole.
So there's this island and everybody's fighting over, like, whose island is it, you know? So you got, like, people from China on the island America, Russia, everybody.
Everybody's just up there.
- [Victor speaking Korean.]
- And they're - saying it's their island.
- [Tommy translating.]
So you got, like, 60 people up there half are scientists, half are soldiers, which is [speaking Korean.]
I'm sorry, I don't What? - He said 30 and 30.
- Yeah.
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Half are soldiers, half are scientists.
Thirty-thirty.
Yeah.
And there's this one guy there, Jassanik.
He's, like, the American guy up there.
And if you looked at him, he looks exactly like Jason Statham.
- Jason Statham.
- Yeah.
It's like a spitting image of him.
- It's crazy, this guy Jassanik.
- Okay.
- Thank you.
- Oh, yeah.
You're welcome.
- Hey, got a sec? - Sure.
What's up? I don't think this is really the place to try and pitch Victor your movie.
Oh, I wasn't pitching, I I was talking about an article I liked.
- Yeah, I know, but, uh - He seemed kind of interested.
I don't Well yeah.
He fakes interest to be polite.
And I try to keep people away so he doesn't have to be a jerk.
- Oh.
- So I mean, if it's cool, just stay in your lane.
You know, teach the kid her ABC's, if that's cool.
- Yeah.
No, of course.
I get it.
- Yeah.
Yeah, okay.
What do you wanna see first? The recording booth or our intern Mason who wears a bow tie every day? - Mason, please.
- Mmm-hmm.
Obviously.
[Dr.
Greg.]
Hey.
Hello.
What's happening? Who's the stranger? Stella, this is Dr.
Greg.
He has a show called Heart Work.
Dr.
Greg, this is Stella.
She has an amazing podcast about sex and relationships.
And we're trying to get her over here to Gravity.
Stella.
Terrific.
A show about sex and relationships, huh? I would so welcome another person coming here and doing the work I've been doing, because there's so much that needs to be done.
- Mmm.
- So many people that need our help.
Are you familiar with my show? No, I only listen to podcasts.
Where'd you study broadcasting? I don't know YouTube.
- Whoa, he's terrifying! - No.
He's a giant baby with coffee breath.
- [whispers.]
I fucked him.
- Ugh.
But it was a power move, so it doesn't count.
[Stella.]
I guess.
- [Steven.]
What the fuck are you doing? - [Gus.]
Huh? Oh.
Just throwing rocks, trying to get it in that window there.
I'm not doing a great job.
- Why, are you bored? - Yeah.
- [chuckles.]
- Oh, super bored.
Ugh, just tell me about it.
Atlanta, man.
It's the worst.
And we're on the outskirts, which is even rougher.
Yeah, I think I'm really running out of things to do here in this town.
It's weird.
If one more person tells me to go to the World of Coca-Cola, - I'll blow my brains out.
- Yeah.
I went there Sunday.
I mean, I tried to, but it was closed for renovations.
So I just, like, looked through the window.
And it looked cool.
Some, like, cool memorabilia and stuff.
Uh, what are you What are you up to tonight? 'Cause I got some reservations for this restaurant that I heard is good - called Oak and Hawk.
- Oh.
- Could maybe bump it up from one to two.
- [chuckles.]
Think they could do that? Think they could move some things around? Uh, tonight's no good.
That does sound fun, but I think I just gotta chill, because I got Sort of backloaded my day.
It's all tonight.
I just figured, you know, you said you're kind of bored and restless here.
I'm bored and restless here, so I thought - Let's throw some more rocks.
- Okay.
- Let's see what you got, Koufax.
- All right.
[rock plinks.]
Is that the arm you throw with? Try your right arm.
- No, I'm left-handed.
- Okay.
[sighs.]
[cell phone ringing.]
- Hey, there.
- Hey.
I was just reading that part where they were making fun of the Robert Cohn character.
I had no idea how anti-Semitic this book was.
What? Oh yeah.
I'm, like, ten pages in and I really like it, but, um, I just haven't had a chance to read a lot.
- Sorry.
- Oh.
Um that's cool.
- Are you mad at me? - No.
No, I think I just, uh [sighs.]
I don't know, the distance here is starting to get to me, I think, you know? I feel a little, uh I don't know, homesick.
- Is that really lame to say? - No.
I mean, look, you're living out of a suitcase in a hotel room in Atlanta.
I get it.
But I'm not sure I can have phone sex with you after you said the word "homesick.
" [chuckles.]
Mmm, that's fair.
So, uh - how you doing? - Really good! Work has been surprisingly tolerable.
I even left my phone in the car the other day for like an hour and I didn't freak out.
- Wow, that's huge.
- Cleaned up the bathroom.
Threw out eye shadow from the '90s.
Shit is getting done! Good.
Good.
Good for you.
Okay, then.
Well, I guess I'll let you get back to what you were doing.
And, uh I miss ya.
Yeah, I miss you, too.
Okay.
- Night.
- Bye.
[Mickey.]
Hi, I'm Mickey.
Alcoholic.
[all.]
Hi, Mickey.
I had a really tough visit with my dad, um but I'm grateful to be here.
And I've been coming more often and I'm feeling good about being in these rooms, and I'm just thankful that I'm here today.
[Spoon's "Let Me Be Mine" playing.]

Auction off what you love Oh, fuck.
Just how they want you to run How they want you to run Mickey.
- Hmm? - I just got off the phone with Stella.
She's not feeling the vibe around here.
She feels like it's too corporate, and it's not her speed.
That sucks, I'm sorry.
I think we can all agree that I should've led the tour.
Don't worry, I'll move on.
I guess we should try to figure out someone else.
I mean, there's that Johann X guy.
He gets celebrities to talk about their favorite conspiracy theories.
- Maybe? - Yeah, those guys are pretty cool.
They did an episode with Anthony Anderson where they talk about dead alien bodies at Fort Knox.
What if I talk to Stella? I think I could get her over here if it was just me and her, after hours, nobody else around.
Yes, do that.
Try, okay? That would be so huge.
Mickey, seriously, if you bring her in, that show is yours to produce from the ground up.
I'm gonna get you her e-mail.
Okay, it's something filthy.
I just know that.
It's like "vag of honor" "total cuntfidence" or something.
[chuckling.]
I can't remember it.
Hey, Cruikshank.
- What the fuck are you doing under here? - Oh.
Uh I don't know, I They put a router in the cabin, so I can get good Wi-Fi if I sit under here and don't bother anybody.
Whatever, I don't care.
Listen, uh, I need to talk to you.
Victor had a dream.
- Victor had a dream? - Shut up.
Victor had a dream about your movie in the Arctic, and he thinks it's a really cool idea, and he was wondering if you wanted to come to New York and work on it with him.
Uh, and me, obviously.
Well, this is cool news.
- It's very exciting.
- Yeah.
Yeah.
You're not fucking with me, are you? - This isn't a joke or - It's not a joke.
'Cause this is a big opportunity for me.
- No shit.
- [chuckles.]
So, uh, I'll work on the details with him and - Okay.

[snorts.]
But I'm feeling good about this time.
Oh Well, um, you know, easy does it.
You know, my sponsor used to say that anytime you think you can go on autopilot, then your addiction starts doing push-ups.
So I know.
I know.
- Just stay strong.
- Yeah.
[all.]
Hi, Mark.
You can do it.
[Nate.]

[cell phone chimes.]
- [sighs.]
- [cell phone chimes.]
[cell phone chimes.]
[softly.]
Shit.
Oh, hey, you're here.
Did you see what Gus sent? Oh, no.
I thought maybe they were from Randy, but they're not.
- They're from Gus.
- Oh.
Oh.
That's a shit ton of flowers.
Yeah.
There's a card, too, if you wanna read it.
Okay.
"Thirty roses for 30 days of sobriety.
Here's to 30 more.
" Aw, that's so sweet.
Well, congratulations, Mickey.
That's really great.
"Here's to 30 more"? Why does that sound vaguely threatening? I'm sure he meant well.
You're right.
I'm sorry.
I'm just tired.
I'm gonna go lay down.
Congratulations! Guess I'll just, uh find somewhere to put these.
[cell phone chimes.]
[sighs.]
[Tommy.]
It just makes things smoother.
He has so much on his mind, it just it will help the process, okay? - As far as the scripts are concerned - Hey, Tommy.
Hi.
I'm sorry to interrupt.
Can I talk to you for a sec? - [Tommy.]
Yeah.
- Oh, okay.
- Uh, what's up? - Hey, um Just between you and me I'm in this new relationship and it's just been really tough being here - away from her.
- Yeah.
And I wanna work with Victor, I totally do.
It's just It's hard for me to get my mind around being in New York for a few weeks, away from LA.
It just doesn't sound like an ideal situation.
Yeah.
Yeah.
No.
No.
I totally get it.
I'm going through the same shit, you know? I'm away from my family.
It's not easy.
My wife is always like, "Victor is the person you're in a relationship with.
" - [chuckles.]
- And it sucks, 'cause it's true, you know? - Yeah.
So you understand.
- Yeah.
- Oh, totally.
Totally.
- You get it.
Yeah.
I don't wanna say no to Victor - but it's, I mean - Yeah.
Yeah.
You know him, is there any way I can get through this? Yeah, okay.
Well, how about this? Just tell Victor that you're really into the project.
- Mmm-hmm.
- And that you wanna do it by Skype.
- It's like a no-brainer.
- Yeah? Yeah.
My only worry is that he'll take that as a sign that I'm not interested at all.
- And I don't want that, 'cause I am.
- No.
Yeah.
No, totally not weird.
He has family in Korea, he Skypes all the time.
Even if you went to New York, you'd most likely just be e-mailing stuff back and forth anyway, so - Right? Right.
- Yeah.
How about this? I'll help you smooth it out.
Okay? I'll meet you at Victor's trailer at lunch.
- Okay.
- Yeah.
- Thank you.
- We'll do it.
Yeah.
Gotcha.
[Stella on computer.]
I can smoke weed.
That's not the problem.
It's just that I get paranoid and I don't wanna touch the guy.
Sex and bong hits, do these two activities go together? Tweet at me.
Hey.
- Hi.
- [sniffs.]
Oh, I'm sorry.
Did I wake you up? [speaking Korean.]
[in English.]
Teacher.
- Yeah.
Um - [speaking Korean.]
Tommy told me to come here.
No.
- Do you know where Tommy is? - Ah, Tommy.
Yeah, Tommy, you, me, we were gonna all talk.
- [speaking Korean.]
- Oh.
[speaking Korean.]
Okay.
Sorry to wake you up.
Tommy told me to swing by so we could talk about the Arctic movie.
Arctic movie? Yeah, and I just I just wanted to go over some scheduling stuff with you.
Just real easy stuff.
Um [speaking Korean.]
I thought Tommy was gonna be here.
Um Hey, I got an idea.
Do you know, um Just do a little Google Translate here.
I think that might help.
I would like to write the movie - [speaking Korean.]
- I know.
I know.
I'm sorry.
I just wish Tommy was here to do this but, um - Is this, um - [sighs heavily.]
- [Gus.]
Is that - Mmm.
Mmm.
Mmm.
Yes? Is that cool? Yeah? No.
No Los Angeles.
No Los Angeles.
I don't think we should work together.
[Tommy.]
Oh, shit, uh [Victor.]
Tommy.
Did you wake him? I am so sorry, I He told me that he was gonna be taking a nap.
I completely forgot to tell you.
I feel like an asshole.
- Oh, gosh.
- Are you serious? Tommy, come on.
What? I can't help but think you maybe set me up here.
[chuckles.]
No, man.
I like you, man.
I would never do that.
- You didn't mean to set me up? - No.
I feel sick to my stomach right now, 'cause I made a horrible mistake.
- I'm so sorry.
- Let's talk about it later.
- Sure.
Sure.
- Victor, I'm so sorry.
Let's Can we hash this out some other time? - I No [sighs.]
- [Tommy.]
Gus, you should probably - Yeah, he's gonna finish his nap.
- What? He hates when people wake him up.
Um, Tommy, I'm just wondering, how do you say "fuck you" in Korean? [in Korean accent.]
Fuck you.
No, I meant, just Shit! [Stella.]
Why do you even want me so bad? I just like things the way they are.
It could just be you and me.
That's why I wanted you to come in after work hours.
We can record whenever you want.
We can do whatever we want.
Nobody gives a fuck.
I just wanna do my show in my pajamas.
I wanna do everything in my pajamas, but it's gonna get old.
Do you wanna be 40 and talking about how you blew the Postmates guy? I don't wanna be 40.
I listened to you talk for 30 minutes about how you texted a guy a picture of your butthole.
And it was super funny, but what's that about? Like What's behind the butthole? - [chuckles.]
Ew.
- Seriously, though.
You have to think about that at some point, right? Why you're doing this shit is as interesting as the shit you're doing.
Okay, take me for a messed-up example.
This guy I'm seeing, he's in Atlanta right now, so we're having phone sex.
And that's fun.
People love hearing about phone sex.
But here's what's actually interesting.
I make him call me every night at 6:00 p.
m.
sharp and he has to text me back within 30 minutes.
Oh, so you're a crazy person.
A thousand percent, but isn't he crazy, too, for going along with it? - I don't know, maybe he loves you.
- Well, he shouldn't.
- I mean, that's messed up, too.
- [chuckles.]
Listen, I can make your show fucking awesome.
Just come work with me.
Let's do this shit.
- Okay, fuck it.
I'm in.
- Great.
- Let's make it good.
- Okay.
So what did the guy write back when you sent him the picture of your butthole? Oh, nothing.
I got nothing for two weeks.
And then he sent me a cringe face that said, "Hey, I'm gonna pass.
" [Stella on computer.]
Poll time.
Sucking on a woman's tits.
Is it for guy's pleasure? Or is it for the woman? - I think both, - [cell phone chimes.]
but tweet at me with your thoughts and feelings.
Also, I'm not getting nearly enough stories from you guys about hooking up in Ubers, and I'm really disappointed.
Come on.
Anything will do.
Did you fall for your UberX driver and invite him up? An orgy in an Uber pool would be awesome to hear about.
Whatever you got, tweet at me.
- [cell phone whooshes.]
- Quick announcement.
If you insist on wearing a cross necklace, little weird, but whatever, take it off before you get on top of me, so I don't have a crucifix dangling in my mouth while we're fucking.
[Skype call ringing.]
- Hey, there you are.
- Hi.
Yeah, sorry, I've been tired and stressed and - I don't know.
- Oh, that's okay.
I'm just happy to see your face.
You, uh you check your e-mail? - No, what was it? - You see it? I got you a plane ticket.
- For this weekend.
- Oh.
Figured since you didn't have plans, - maybe you could come out and see me.
- "Connecting through Houston.
" Gus why did you do that? I don't know.
'Cause I thought it'd be fun.
You know, I got this hotel room.
I could show you around town.
That's nice, but you didn't even ask me if I could come.
I mean, I've got work.
I'm busy.
We signed this podcaster.
I've got stuff to do.
Think there's any way you could maybe move stuff around? Make it work? You know, 'cause I'm I'm just trying to prioritize you and me stuff over work stuff here, so Well, guess what? I didn't ask you to do that.
It's no big deal, but this director on this movie asked me if I wanted to come to New York and work with him and I said no, because I thought we'd wanna spend time together.
What? Dude, that's amazing! - Why would I ever tell you not to go? - I know.
I'm just saying, I'm making sacrifices to make this work.
No.
No, you don't get points [scoffs.]
for something you decided was a sacrifice in your head that I never would have asked you to do.
Okay.
Whatever.
If you can't make it, don't come.
It's fine.
I don't even know if I wanna come, Gus.
Wow.
Whatever happened to, uh, "Hey, Gus, I don't do well with separation"? 'Cause right now it sounds like you're doing pretty fucking well without me.
Now you're mad that I'm doing well? I told you I wanted to take a year off of dating, remember? You're supposed to be happy for me.
Do you want me to be just fucked up 'cause you're gone? God, I'm so sorry for being encouraging.
I never dated anybody in the program, all right? So I don't know what the fuck I'm doing.
Then fucking go to an Al-Anon meeting, dude.
We've both got issues.
I'm just the one who's not afraid to admit it.
Yes, Mickey, you're right.
I am a huge asshole, because I care about you.
Whatever.
Fuck this.
Yeah, you're right, dude.
Fuck all of this.
And I didn't read any of that stupid fucking book anyway, because I'm 32 and I don't want any fucking homework assignment.
It's your loss, 'cause it's [distorting.]
an amazing fucking book.
- What? - I said it's your loss! Jesus fucking Christ! Fuck you! Yeah, maybe we shouldn't be so, uh rigid about this schedule, because talking every day isn't working for me anymore.
No, it's not.
You're right.
Obviously.
- Well, I'm gonna go, because - Uh-huh.
Okay.
Whatever.
Fine.
Bye.
- [Skype call disconnects.]
- [softly.]
Bye.
[sighs.]
[guitar music playing.]
Hey.
Hi.
You, uh remember Buster? Yeah.
- Hi, Bust.
- [Buster sniffing.]
- He's happy to see you.
- Oh Well, he just remembers all the treats I used to sneak him.
[chuckles.]
Still like my original name better.
You can't name a dog Tom Skerritt.

[Dustin chuckles.]
I could liken you to a werewolf The way you left me for dead But I admit That I provided a full moon And I could liken you to a shark The way you bit off my head But then again, I was waving around A bleeding open wound But you are such a super guy Till the second you get a whiff of me We're like a wishing well And a bolt of electricity But we can still support each other All we gotta do is avoid each other Nothing wrong when a song ends In a minor key Nothing wrong when a song ends In a minor key The lava of a volcano Shot up hot from under the sea One thing leads to another And you made an island of me And I could liken you to a chemical The way you made me compound to compound But I'm a chemical too Inevitable you and me would mix And I could liken you to a lot of things But I always come around 'Cause in the end I'm a sensible
