Like how come no matter how much
you treat me like sh*t,
I can't help loving you even more?
22.INT. BILL'S BEDROOM - LATER.22.
While TRISH puts CHLOE and TIMMY to bed, BILLY comes and
BILLY:

BILL:

BILL:
Well, you know how sometimes your
penis gets erect�well, sometimes
it gets so excited that a sticky
BILLY:

verb as well.
(a beat)
Billy?
BILLY:

BILL:
Have you ever come?
BILLY:

BILL:
Now Billy, it's alright if you haven't.
BILLY:
Well, I have�
BILL:
Billy�
BILLY:
But everyone else in class had and�
I want to come, too!
BILLY starts crying.
BILL:
Awn, now, it's okay, it's okay.
Have you tried playing with yourself?
BILLY:
You mean�
BILL:
With your penis.
BILLY:
A little.
BILL:

BILLY:
I dunno. I don't know what to do.

23.INT. JOY'S PLACE - DAY.23.
JOY is preparing to cook a steak. She is wearing rubber
globes. HELEN sits with a coffee mug at the kitchen table.
HELEN:
Y'know, people were always putting
New Jersey down. None of my friends
can believe I live here. But that's
because they don't get it:
I'm living in a state of irony.
JOY:
Are you sure you don't wanna
stay and have dinner with me?
HELEN:
I can't. I'm giving another reading/
book-signing over at Barnes & Noble,
and then Jamal is taking me out �
although I promised Fabiacho�Uch.
Everybody wants me�
The phone rings.
HELEN:
That's it, I'm going.
JOY:
Wait!
JOY picks up the phone.
JOY:
Hello?
VOICE:
Hi! How are you?
JOY:
Is this Damien?
VOICE:
Yeah!� So, uh, how are you doing?
JOY:
Oh, fine. Could you hold a second?
Helen?
HELEN is almost out the door.
HELEN:
See ya!
JOY:
Thanks for stopping by!
HELEN leaves.
JOY:
(into phone)
Sorry. That was my sister leaving.
VOICE:
Oh. Yeah�um�yeah�
Pause.
JOY:
So, um, Trish told me you might
be calling.
VOICE:
Yeah, well�
JOY:
Oh, I know how weird these things
can be, but I've always had such faith
in Trish's judgment that I thought
why not. It's not like I've got some
huge social life. I mean, I do have a
social life. It's just not huge.
VOICE:
Same here.
JOY:
Oh, really? That's so nice to hear.
Most people seem so confident�
VOICE:
Yeah�
JOY:
Or, well, you know�
They're just real jerks.
VOICE:
Yeah�uh� What are you doing?
JOY:
Oh, I'm sorry, I'm just trying to
thaw this steak�but it's so hard
and� I'm sorry.
