GREG: So over the years we've mostly hung out at my place. Usually with my dad, a tenured sociology professor. What you got, cat? You wanna fight? Didn't think so, punk-ass cat. GREG'S DAD: Boys! GREG: His job allows him to be frequently at home doing nothing. You'll want to pay close attention to this. The insane conquistador, Aguirre, is raging through the jungle... ...in search of a golden city that doesn't exist. The wrath of God. GREG'S DAD: It's a classic of foreign cinema. Who else is with me? (LAUGHING) GREG: In addition to the best films... This is cuttlefish. ...my house also has the weirdest food. A sea creature much like a squid. It is a favorite East Asian snack food. Obviously we come from pretty different backgrounds. But somehow, we like most of the same things. Yes, its smell is odd and repellent to our Western noses. And we learned pretty early on that we were the only ones who liked... ...for example, classics of foreign cinema.

GREG: You may remember Earl from 15 minutes ago. Titties. So, some people think Earl is my friend, but he's really not. He's more like a coworker. I've known him since kindergarten. His house is a short walk from mine, but in a much tougher neighborhood. His dad is in Texas, his mom is a depressed shut-in. And his brother Derrick's dog Doopie will definitely eat me someday.

Is that a Black Power salute? No, I was going in for a fist bump. I can't fist bump you from up here. GREG: Yeah, I realize that.

They have a similar coloring. Anyway, Francesca, we had to eventually give away because in the end... ...that whole situation was just a real problem. It was a mess. There was a real chemistry between us both that I think no one could deny.
