That's why I'm asking you. 00:16 Speaker A Mhm. Memory gets a little foggy, you know? What's in it for me? You'll stop doing it. 00:24 Speaker A DOING WHAT? OW! THAT. [ \_\_ ] OH, WE CAN DO THIS the easy way. 00:31 Speaker A Or we can. We're currently doing it the easy way. Okay, Jesus. The penthouse. She's in the penthouse, top floor. 00:42 Speaker A Be happy? Yeah. Guys, listen. You. You don't go up there, all right? Trust me. 00:48 Speaker A These New York guys are up there. Um, business guys. They got [ \_\_ ] bodyguards. 00:53 Speaker A Kind of had their balls removed. What's that called? Um, marriage. Ah. Just chill here. I know she's got to come back down. 01:05 Speaker A Have a couple cold ones on me. Oh, not for me. Makes a strong argument, though. 01:09 Speaker A You see? Reasonable. Very reasonable. Now, your buddy that was the problem. He wasn't reasonable. 01:15 Speaker A Our buddy? Yeah, we don't have friends. The other guy looking for Amelia, he wasn't with you? 01:21 Speaker A Where'd he go? Got on the elevator right before you guys came in. Does he got a name? 01:25 Speaker A John something. You actually witness him getting into the elevator? No, I was told by a wise old Indian. 01:31 Speaker A Of course I [ \_\_ ] witnessed it. What the hell's going on? Oh, it just makes sense. Connects up. 01:37 Speaker A What makes sense? John boy. Oh, just something the blue face mentioned, yeah. What did he mention? Mention how? 01:44 Speaker A Oh, you know, we. There's a guy coming to kill you. That kind of crap. 01:49 Speaker A Yeah. You should probably just stay here. Smart move. Unless, of course, he's up there killing her right now. 01:58 Speaker A Nobody's getting killed at the Burbank Airport Hotel. Because? That would be national news. Yeah, so? 02:05 Speaker A Oh, so when's the last time you were on national news? Larry. Really? Yeah. For what? 02:10 Speaker A I got shot. In a diner. Where? In my arm. I told you this last night. 02:17 Speaker A We should call the cops. No, but they'll take too long. I mean, she could die. 02:21 Speaker A You just said it was the right move to stay down here. No, I said smart move. Different. 02:42 Speaker A Munich. [snorts] What? Guy without his balls. It's Munich. Munich is a city in Germany. 02:56 Speaker A München. Munich. Yeah. Right. Hitler only had one ball. All right, here we go. [screaming and groaning] [music] Oh, [ \_\_ ] What are we doing? 04:02 Speaker A We can't just leave. Why? She's in danger, man. We have to do something about it. 04:08 Speaker A She's dead. What do you mean she's dead? COME ON! SHE'S NOT DEAD. OPEN YOUR EYES, MAN! 04:12 Speaker A THAT! SHE'S [ \_\_ ] DEAD! YOU DON'T KNOW THAT! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE? 04:45 Speaker A Holy [ \_\_ ] you got her! You're supposed to be at Jessica's. Yeah, sorry, Mr. March. My sister kicked us out. She's having a guy over. 04:52 Speaker A Your sister's such a [ \_\_ ]. Yeah, I know. Hello. Amelia. Should I just shake her shoulder? Maybe. 05:04 Speaker A You know, my brother used to flick my ear. Like that. I hated that. We shouldn't be violent. 05:08 Speaker A You could just hit her. Really? Like really hard. A family. It's not practical. We probably shouldn't hit her if we want to talk to her. 05:15 Speaker A It's okay. You just scared all those guys off of me. Do you know who they were? Do you know who sent them? 05:20 Speaker A Yeah. [sighs] It's only mother. Would you mind starting from the top? If it's. Why? Doesn't matter. 05:35 Speaker A I'm sorry, it doesn't matter? You just shot at us. I think it matters. Okay, okay. I made a film. I made a film with Dean, my boyfriend. And the idea was that we were going to, you know, like 05:46 Speaker A make this experimental film, like, uh, artistic film. Porn or no film? It's not a porno. 05:54 Speaker A [sighs and gasps] Look, do you even know who my mother is? Yes. We do. 06:00 Speaker A We, we've actually met your mother. We, we. What'd she tell you? That I'm crazy? 06:04 Speaker A That I was just lashing out? Something like that. She might have mentioned. Yeah, well. My mother [sighs and gasps] is a criminal. 06:11 Speaker A She's one of them. Who's them? What's them? One of the insiders. One of the capitalist corporate suppressors. You know, they want us dead, man. We're just in their crosshairs, you know? We're just pawns. 06:23 Speaker A Gosh. Hey. What does this have to do with the birds? Yeah. My mom's supposed to be working for the Justice Department, right? 06:36 Speaker A Sure. She's prosecuting the catalytic converter case. Yeah, only she's not. She's not prosecuting it. The automakers, she's going to let them walk. 06:44 Speaker A They have the evidence. Yes, they have evidence. They have memos proving that Detroit conspired to suppress the converter. Proving they would rather poison our air than spend a little bit of money. But my mom, she's going to say that's not enough. She's 06:55 Speaker A going to lie because she's on the take. Money again, right? Mammon, that's her god. That fascist crony. Okay. Okay. Okay. All right. All right. 07:03 Speaker A Just, just back up a little bit. Why not just go straight to the police? 07:09 Speaker A She is the police. She's the head of the Justice Department. You, you, you got a point. Okay. Or the newspaper. 07:16 Speaker A Work together. God. Have you been living under a rock? All right. So, then your solution was you make a porn film. 07:24 Speaker A IT'S NOT A PORNO. NO, I HAVE NEIGHBORS. I made a statement. Right. And yeah. Yeah, my statement contained nudity. 07:32 Speaker A Porn or nudity? That's just the commercial element, okay? Okay? Sid said we had to have that. And the reality was we were getting our message out there. And it was all in the film. Names and dates and everything, 07:46 Speaker A everything that my mom was doing. And once it was out there, once it was in theaters, there's no way that they could suppress it. There's no way that they could cover it up. 07:53 Speaker A Let me get this straight. You made a porno film where the point was the plot. 07:58 Speaker A What's your hang-up, man? It's not the sex. It's what's in the story. My mom found out. 08:08 Speaker A She killed Dean and destroyed the film. Your mom killed Dean. Of course. She killed Misty, too. 08:16 Speaker A And said Shaddock? Yeah. Okay. So, it's like Jack the Ripper and then your mom. Basically. 08:26 Speaker A So, what are you going to do? I don't know. I'm just really tired, you know? 08:33 Speaker A All right. Okay. So, uh, you, we're just going to talk about it and have a little think and you, you get some rest. 08:40 Speaker A Yeah, just get some rest. What do you think? I like her. I like her dress. 08:51 Speaker A It's a nice dress. But she's a loon. According to her, mother's single-handedly going to wipe out all of Western society. 09:00 Speaker A Oh, yeah. However, there are people trying to kill her, right? Like John-Boy. Who's John-Boy? He's on The Waltons. 09:10 Speaker A No, different John-Boy. Well, we think. Think, yeah. Pretty sure. Can't be sure, though. Yeah.
