What's up, man!

Hey!

What is he doing?

You know that girl?

Kind of.

N-not really.

I think she hates me.

Well see, if you

think she hates you,

she probably likes you.

So you're good.

Go talk to her.

Go on, go talk to her.

Do you work here?

Yeah.

What's that?

It's a pink sugar elephant.

And yeah, it hurt.

Uh, I-I don't

think I asked that.

Probably were about to.

No, I'm just curious as to why

you have a little elephant.

I don't know why.

Getting kind of

emotional about it.

Excuse me?

I didn't mean to offend you.

I'm actually very fond of them.

E-elephants.

God, you're weird.

So why are you even here?

What do you mean?

I've never seen you here before.

Pretty sure you're stalking me.

I'm...

I'm wanted for hamster murder.

Yo man, we're out.

What?

The game.

This is...

Val.

I'm val.

I'm harmon.

Okay.

Okay.

Come on, string bean.

I guess I gotta go.

Alright, I'll see ya.

See ya.

What is this place?

You live here?

Sort of, man, it's...

It's the cave, you know?

It's a mess in here right now.

So you're a...

You're in a band, right?

Sometimes.

Who's this?

Oh yeah, my bad.

We don't have any

chopin in here, okay?

That's too bad.

Yeah, it is too bad.

How'd you get that?

I told this kid I knew

when he was going to die.

Say what?

I told this kid I knew when

he was going to die and he

punched me in the face.

I'd probably punch

you in the face too.

Yeah.

So I mean, h-how would you

know when he was going to die?

I just know.

You just know.

Yes.

I mean, sh*t, do you know

when I'm going to die?

It doesn't quite work like that.

How does it work?

I can't explain it.

I'm kind of cursed.

That's some dark sh*t, James.

You need to tell that

to some girls, for real.

Are you teasing me?

No.

Dead serious.

Tell some girls about that sh*t.

I'm serious.

So you actually believe me?

Why not, man?

For you, man.

Baby lungs.

Ai-ya!

Good morning.

Hey.

I thought you were

still sleeping.

Um, I got up early to find

a place to bury Elliot.

Oh.

Where?

Um...

The, near the arboretum.

Like by the scarecrow.

Will you please let me

know if you're going out?

Yeah.

Hello?

What are you doing?

You're going to have

to pay for that.

You know I was just

kidding, right?

What's that one?

That's the blood-filled

voodoo doll.

Chocolate frosting, raspberry

jam filling, and a pretzel

stake in its heart.

Heh.

Tang-fastic, vanilla

frosting and tang.

And tang?

Tang, like the drink.

Doesn't look like a drink.

You've never heard of tang?

Interesting.

I-I'm...

I got this for you.

Hey, wait a second.

What is this?

It's a store address.

Be there tomorrow at four.
