- Yes.

- Do you accept this call?

- Ye...

Yes, you f***ing robot! Yes, yes!

[LYDIA] Oh, f***.

Dad?

I'm here. Where the hell are you?

I just...

I know that it's been

a really long time, I just...

F***.

Well, just stay on the line.

Where you been, kid?

I... I left home, a while ago.

Yeah, I know. You scared a lot of people.

I need cash fast. F***.

Just enough so I can get lost,

because I am f***ing dead.

I'm like this fly that's about to get

splattered on a windshield.

Does that make any sense?

No.

Oh, f***. I know this is

so unbelievably rude.

Normally, I would be all,

"Oh, let's catch up."

My point is, I took the bus

as far as I can get tonight.

I figure I can get to Oregon by Monday.

Okay, yeah. How much do you need?

Two g's tops, if I can, you know,

get settled and start working.

What kind of work were you looking for?

F***. F***. I am so sorry about this.

I don't know, a nanny?

Well, I got the money

right here in my hand.

Just stay put till I get there.

That is so first class.

I can meet you in Santa Monica,

on Third and Broadway.

Okay. Stay put.

My...

[ENGINE STARTS]

[MUSIC PLAYING]

[WOMAN 1] They can take us now!

I wanted to buy an eighth.

[VEHICLES HONKING]

I hadn't seen him in so many years.

Lydia.

Hey, kid.

Come here. Come on, sit down.

- You're okay. I got you now.

- [SIGHS]

[ENGINE STARTS]

Thank you for coming so far.

Sure.

I'm gonna pay you back every dollar.

Okay.

I almost didn't recognize you

in this car, I was... You know...

I was expecting you to be

holding on to the old hog.

Well, that's a parole violation now.

Oh.

A**holes.

Listen, kid.

Why don't you take a little nap?

[SIGHS]

What the f***.

[TV PLAYING]

I don't even know where I am

and there are only

five channels on your TV.

Yeah.

[GRUNTS]

You swivel these ears here,

and maybe get channel 11.

Oh. So, I went back in time.

[TUNING TV]

If I turn myself in, do I get this reward?

Nope.

What a rip.

- [CHUCKLES]

- Hey, hold still.

Sorry.

Some of my best work there.

[LYDIA] Ah.

- Don Quixote.

- Mmm.

Picasso.

- Kid's got education.

- Yeah.

Wanted to put it in a magazine,

but we couldn't find this motherf***er.

I ain't no male model. No sh*t.

Yeah, but, dude, I think Sancho Panza

might have melanoma.

What?

Why don't you go outside and play?

You really should have

that looked at, Dennis.

I can't stay much longer.

Uh-huh. Oregon.

No, I don't have to go to Oregon,

I just have to go somewhere.

You pregnant?

No.

That's so medieval.

But I don't wanna say too much

'cause it'd put you in a bad position.

You see, my boyfriend

thought we could get married

so that I wouldn't have to
