Hey! Oh. Oh, oh, oh, you're so skinny. - Have you been eating? - Yeah. - Hi. - Hey. How are you? This is Ray. - Hey. How you doing? - Oh. - Nice to finally meet you. - Nice to meet you. Yeah, I feel like I already know you. Your mom talks about you all the time. - Oh, God. - Oh. No, only good stuff, only good stuff. Should we go eat? I am so sick of eating off a tray. - You hungry? - Yeah, I could eat. - Could always eat. - Uh-huh. Beautiful school. "Yeah, I could eat. I could always eat." Fucking asshole. Look at those two angels, huh? - Yeah, I know them. - Yeah. - Mm-hmm. - You walk them to school, don't you? - Yeah, I know who they are. - Oh, my God. - She's so cute. - Look. Look at those curls. We took them to see Stomp Off-Broadway. - They went crazy! - Oh, my God. I love Stomp. What's Stomp? What is that? It's the greatest musical of all time. Yeah, it's, like, that show where people play the drums on, like, garbage cans and, like, tap with broomsticks. - Stuff around the house. - Yeah. Like, you just see a toaster, we make an English muffin. They-they see a whole song. It's incredible. I know a homeless guy that plays trash can lids on the subway, for a dollar. And then he took a shit on the platform. Oh. Well, you know. I don't know if he's gonna get a Tony for that, but... Maybe if they keep practicing and get an adult diaper, they can, uh, get to Broadway someday.

Mom doesn't need to peruse dick. - You know she needs to. - I think she seems happy. You want her to have sex with a ton of people? No, but, yeah, kind of. - I mean... - That's gross. Well, if you knew something was bad before it even started, wouldn't you stop it if you had the chance? It's like that whole baby Hitler thing, you know? If you had the chance to kill baby Hitler before it grew up, wouldn't you do it? Wouldn't you strangle it until its eyes popped out? So, Ray's baby Hitler? Yeah. In this situation, he is, yeah. He's baby Hitler. So, do you want to help me kill baby Hitler? Okay, you're right, Scott. You're right. - I'll see you tomorrow. - Claire! Claire!

He's losing a lot of blood! - I need a gurney, please! - Oh, thank you. - All right, just hold... Put... - Thank you. Put pressure on it, all right? Hi. This guy's been, uh, either shot or stabbed. I don't know. He's been kind of vague about it. Sir, have you been shot? Stabbed? No. - I fell in a thorn bush. - Okay. Have him fill out this paperwork, and the doctor will call you when he's ready. Do me a favor, man. Can we just switch identities? What? No. Just let me use your driver's license. - We look nothing alike, dude. - No one's gonna know. Just trust me. I'm bleeding. It feels like I have to shit. Oh, Jesus Christ. I'm Margie's son. Do you know... I'm Margie's son. I don't know who that is. I'm just filling in. Okay. - I know. - My pain keeps coming. Tell that fucking cocksucker, my father, that I hate him and I love him at the same time and I forgive him. I-I-I do not need to do that, because you're gonna live.

Um, well, I've been meaning to ask you. Um... you know, since you're in here, uh, well, I was wondering if you wouldn't mind me staying at your house for a little bit. You came up here to ask me that? - I also came to see you. - You came... No, you didn't come to see me. You came to ask me that. And, no, you can't stay at my house. I'm sor... I have nowhere to go, bro. - My house is frightening, dude. - My mom kicked, my mom - kicked me out. - The fuck are you doing with your life? Drive all the way down here just to ask me if you can stay at my house. - No, I-I... - No, you don't love me. I do love you. I'm sorry. I-I... You're right. I shouldn't have asked. I'm sorry. And you know what? I need you to do me a favor. Anything, bro. Just ask. You got to feed my cat, all right? For the next three to five months. Is there anything else I could do? 'Cause I'm-I'm kind of allergic to cats.

Bro, you-you can't give him a tattoo. - He's a little kid. - Yeah, there we go. - You want a tattoo? - Bro, I got to practice on something. - Yeah. - He seems old enough. - You a tough guy? - Yeah.

No. Get the fuck out of my store! - I just don't want to hurt you, okay? - Get out! - I just... - You're not doing this again, okay?! - This is the third time! - Enough of you guys! - Third time this year! - Shit!

Scott. Scott. He's gonna be taking care of you. - Okay? It... - Nice to meet you, Scott. Hi, Harold. It's nice to meet you. For the very first time. If he does anything weird, you tell me. Even if he tells you not to tell me, you tell me. I'm pretty sure he's not weird, but I could be wrong. 'Kay? - Love you. - Okay. - Love you, Mom. - Seriously. Love you, Mom. Bye. Pay attention.

That was fucking fun. I know. It was so fun. Yeah, like, I feel like, I feel like I kind of fit in for once, you know? And not everybody hated me for the first time. You should come here. Yeah? You think I can get into a place like this? I mean, you'd need a good GPA. Yeah, well, I don't have a good one of those. I-I didn't even graduate high school. Don't you have to graduate high school to go to college? Yeah, but it's not, like, too late to do that. All right, even so, you know, I-I'm a little too old. I'd look like a narc, you know? I would look creepy in the corner. Everybody'd be like, "What's that guy doing here?" Everybody here is so old. All right, well, I'm fucking stupid, Claire, okay? Is that what you want me to say? I can't pay attention. I can't sit still, okay? I'm stupid. I'm a dumb idiot. I would have to work ten times harder than those people. And everybody would fucking make fun of me, and I'm not ready to deal with that again, all right? So, no. So, that's it? Huh? That's how long you're gonna think about going to college for? I mean, that was, like, a 40-second walk. Uh, that's a lot of consideration, don't you think? Okay. - It's your journey. - Indeed. Now, let's get down to brass tacks, all right? W-What are we gonna do about Ray? - What do you mean? - Don't act stupid. I mean, h-how are we gonna, you know, get Mom to break up with him? I think he seems fine. - You think he's fine? - What do you want? It's Mom's choice to make. We don't need to get involved. Yeah, I know, but we should still protect her. She can't just be with the first guy she's been with since Dad. She got to, like, peruse some dick.
