Blue Like Jazz
for being full of crap.
Went to a good school.
Ever heard of Reed College?
Know what the average
IQ score is at Reed?
You want a beer?
I won't tell Jesus.
No, thanks.
So he's still connected at the school,
and when he told me
he could pull a few strings,
I, um...
You what?
I got you in, Donny,
at Reed.
You enrolled me?
For this term?
That's not how it works.
Well, took some finagling.
Even had to send 'em a deposit.
I already got a scholarship,
Trinity Baptist.
So you can get
a preaching degree
and make your mom happy?
A brain like that
working for a church?
You only believe that stuff 'cause you're
afraid to hang out with people who don't.
I'm going for the writing program.
Well, then go somewhere
they don't hand you the script
and tell you to copy it.
You hear that?
That's free-form.
Improvise.
Write your own damn story,
or that kook mom of yours
will write it for you.
Don't call her that.
Yeah, or I'll be "left behind", right?
Come on. Let me do this
for you, Donny.
Why now?
kidnapped and deprogrammed.
dodging child support...
our church paid for the groceries.
- Who's that one?
- Intern.
Thought you were on sabbatical.
That's why I only have one.
You want me to introduce you?
You got a girlfriend yet?
Hey, Lindsey,
my Baptist son here
needs some tutoring.
Dad.
You know what works
great with sunrise?
A Love Supreme, John Coltrane.
Pushes the sun right
out of the earth, huh?
They have no regard for Jesus.
These people have no regard
for common sense.
They hate Christianity.
Some of this they learn in the homes...
Good morning, Mama.
Rise and shine.
- What time is it?
- It's almost 8:
00.I'll take the first shower.
