The first 200 lines.
See, we think we know what we're capable of...
But maybe there's even more to being human
than even the scientists know, right?
I dig science.
I dig oceanography the best.
I mean, this acid that we're on right now
is made by science,
that's what so fuckin' mind-blowing about it.
It's scientific.
I love you.
I love you, too.
Bruno, your...
Your face is all like glowing from underneath,
it's like you're one of those lava lamps,
it's like you're made of human Taffy.
I am.
Let me try it.
No, come on.
I wanna show you something.
Hey, Bruno, man, nice party.
Hey, crambone, it's all happening, man!
The moments?
Yes, the motherfuckin' moments, man, they just keep on comin'!
Right, right.
Where are we going?
Higher.
Come on.
Oh, wow.
We shouldn't be up here.
No, we should always be up here, see...
That's the tragedy of life.
The fucking tragedy, Sandy, is that we're all...
My name's Cindy.
See...
That is a beautiful name, too, baby.
There are so many beautiful names!
I just want to tear every fucking name out,
and love every name.
And the hearts, and the blood...
Let's go back to the party now.
No, I gotta go.
Oh, wow.
Bruno?
I'm sorry.
Don't be.
I had no where else to go.
It's not a problem.
Where'd you get yourself so messed up?
It doesn't matter.
Some bar.
When do I get to self-destruct?
When do you?!
Claire.
I mean it.
I'm sick of Nate's bullshit.
I hate that he didn't come to our mother's wedding.
I'm sick of...
I'm so sick of everything being so fuckin' awful
all the time.
I'm sorry, but I am.
I'll take Maya tonight, if you want.
No, it's okay, I'll do it.
It's obviously my thing.
Goodnight.
Goodnight.
Sweet dreams.
Thanks.
I feel like I've been eating this cake for 12 months.
I wasn't gonna say anything.
Well, I guess I better get going.
You could stay over tonight.
If you want.
Here?
Yeah, if you're too drunk to drive or whatever.
I guess I could do that...
And what's wrong with "here," anyway?
Nothing...
Here is where I grew up.
Nothing's wrong with it,
I've just never stayed over your house before.
That's all I meant.
Well, you can, if you want, that's all I meant.
Look, I'm tired, okay?
My mother just married some guy.
Let me be a little edgy.
You can be whatever you want, I don't give a shit.
So stay over.
Okay!
Jesus.
I have to drive to Santa Barbara to pick up her body?
To pick up my wife's body?
Go to sleep.
I can't...
It's all so impossible.
It's all so fuckin' impossible.
Just sleep, Nate, it helps.
It's weird.
What?
It's quieter here than over at...
Your place?
Yeah.
Yeah, it's quieter.
And stranger.
What's so strange?
Oh, I don't know, the thought that
I just got blown in the same bed
where my mom used to read me "the runaway bunny"?
And "the five Chinese brothers."
Oh god.
What is that?
Is that Claire?
No.
George!
George!
That was nice.
It certainly was.
I'm married again.
And?
Nothing, I just never thought I'd be married again.
Are you happy?
Very.
Me too.
I'm sorry your children couldn't come to the wedding.
Well, they were very busy.
I get it.
I'd like to meet them, though, sometime.
Brian and Maggie?
Sure.
You know so much about my family,
and I know so little about yours.
I'm sure you'll meet them someday.
At my funeral, if not before.
George!
If they even bother to come to that.
George, I'm serious.
Look.
You've lived your life one way.
I've lived mine another.
The costs are different.
But I can tell you this,
every day when I wake up,
I'm glad that I'm alive,
and if people don't like the way I've done things,
that's their business.
But right now,
I'm so very happy I've found you,
and I'm looking forward, not back.
Okay?
Do you think we were too loud?
It's possible that we were too loud, yes.
Nate.
You don't have to say it,
I know.
Bye.
Bye.
Call me if you need anything.
Yeah, I will.
I waited up until, like, four.
He never showed up.
God, I'm sorry.
No, I couldn't sleep anyway.
Could you believe that?
I was like completely scandalized.
I never knew the word "George" could sound so obscene.
Good for them.
You want some more coffee?
Yes, please.
We have all got to get out of this house
if they're gonna keep doing that.
Out of the state.
Out of the universe.
What happened to you?
Lisa's dead.
Shit.
Her body washed up near carpinteria a few days ago.
Some kids found it.
Fuck.
It took the lab 'til yesterday to figure out it was her.
Do they know what happened?
She drowned.
She just... Drowned?
That's what they said.
There's no evidence of anything else... bad.
But she could swim, right?
Yeah, just looks like she drowned.
God.
So I have to go to the coroner up there and get her.
I'll come with you.
Thanks.
Nate, what happened to your face?
I got in a fight.
Good morning, morning glories.
I hope we didn't keep any of you folks up last night.
They found Lisa's body.
She's dead.
Oh, lord.
I'm sorry.
So am I.
So am I.
Angelica?!
