churnin' up that lame butter.

Sorry.

[ LUMPY ] Look out, everybody!

[ SINGING WITH TV ] # I knew

right from the beginning #

# That you would

end up winning #

# I knew right from the

start # [ POUNDING ]

[ MAN ] Shut up in there!

You shut up!

# You put an arrow through my

heart # # Through my heart

- # Round and round - Oh, God!

[ GROANS ]

# With love we'll find a way

Just give it time #

[ ALARM BELL RINGING ]

[ FADES ] # Round and round

[ RINGING CONTINUES ]

[ GROANS ]

[ WATER RUNNING ] Hmm.

[ BIRDS TWITTERING ]

[ KNOCKING ] [ WOMAN ] Come on.

Get up.

- [ KNOCKING ] - Ramsey, I'm not kidding.

You can't be late again.

[ DOOR OPENS ]

[ BLINDS OPENING ]

[ HOARSE VOICE ] Get up.

I'm up.

What is your problem?

Give me one second.

And don't hassle your mother.

What's going on?

Nothing.

I'm going to bed.

I don't know a Dave.

[ FOOTSTEPS ]

David? No.

[ SIGHS ]

Danny?

My boss's name is Danny.

He might be a Gemini.

What kind of danger?

Hey, um, you're gonna have

to try harder with Winston.

Where is he?

He went back to bed.

[ SCOFFS ] Oh.

I should go too.

Okay.

I'll call you tomorrow.

Bye.

[ BEEP ]

[ CHUCKLES ]

Ms. Shirley?

She says that Dan's in danger.

You know, Dan from work.

I'm gonna tell him.

You should call her sometime.

[ SIGHS ] By the way,

you never told me where

you slept the other night.

Why don't you ask

Ms. Shirley?

God, if you were

with some guy...

I was at a friend's house.

What friend?

Hey! Aren't you gonna

eat something?

I'm not hungry.

[ DOOR OPENS, CLOSES ]

That's it?

Sorry. I have to

get my day started.

Yeah, me too.

What?

I drove all the way up here

to see you.

Couldn't we at least

have breakfast?

Hang out a little?

It's a small town.

Hey.

Maybe I can arrange

a day off next week.

You know what?

Forget it.

[ DOOR OPENS,

CLOSES ]

Jesus!

Hot date?

What are you doing here?

You know I like to watch.

I hate it when you pull the blinds, Dad.

[ SIGHS ]

I'm not your dad.

Dad, father, father, dad...

Whatever.

I need 50 bucks.

I don't have 50 bucks.

This is really your best option?

Blackmailing a priest?

Think of it

as community welfare.

Isn't there a doctor or a lawyer

you can hustle?

If you want me to go back to taking

it out of the offering tray,

I will.

[ SIGHS ]

[ KRISTIN ]

They just found him lying there?

Yeah. I don't know

what he was doing.

How...

I don't know.

A security camera caught him going

out the back door at, like, 1:30.

There's blood

all over his room.

I- I don't know.
