- Well, we're calling the police.

- He doesn't know where I live.

If he sees police cars, he will.

Honey, what if he does this

to a kid or something?

Baby, please.

Calm down.

I'm fine. Okay?

We're like affectionate roommates.

Oh, okay.

She's super open-minded. Hey, hey.

Give me a club soda?

Hey! There he is. Hey.

How's it goin', man?

Good, good, good.

Good. I'm feelin' good.

Feelin' good.

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I'll have another one too, please.

Thank you.

When are you gonna bring that beautiful

fiance of yours in instead of this cretin?

"Cretin"?

Yeah, it's been a while.

You guys are my favorite couple.

- We could be somebody's favorite couple.

- Uh... eew. Mm-mmm.

This is like our... we have a thing now,

like a Sam and Diane type situation.

Ah, yeah, this thing

where she, like, hates him.

How are you?

Uh, good.

What's new? Believe it or not,

I am actually shooting again.

Yeah? All right.

Yeah.

Well, I'm kind of shooting.

It's just a, uh... Like a

trial gig at Claire's work.

Well, good! Good. You're back

doing what you were meant to do.

Thought I was meant to win

the Robert Capa award.

Instead, I'm taking

pictures of real estate.

But it's a start.

I'm proud of you.

Cheers. Cheers.

Ah.

I promised myself I'd never

pick up another camera.

Let's take a walk.

Just out back. There's

something I wanna show you.

I don't know what you went

through over there. You know?

It's none of my business.

I know you're dealing with it

and you're processing it.

I can't imagine how hard it is.

But what I do know is that

you did absolutely everything

to make sure

that you did the right thing.

You had a job to do.

You did it.

And you were really good

at that job, man.

It would be a real shame if you never

picked up a camera ever again.

You know? It's a good...

It's a good gig.

Hell of a lot better

than what I do for a living.

Yeah, what are you doing

for work these days?

Little bit of this,

little bit of that.

Least I'm not selling my ass down on olive

street. Olive street has hookers now?

Yeah.

I-I mean, no...

I... I hear...

I'm a nice guy.

I'm a married man.

You know. Good boy. Yeah.

If you do ever find yourself over on that

side of town, don't go asking for Cassandra.

She's a... good friend of mine.

Personal... my friend.

Okay. I will not

touch your prostitute.

Republican don Cheney

leads the race with 67%...

Isn't this the guy

who shot the panda?

America makes the worst...

It is.

No! That never

actually happened.

Uh...

Yeah.

Be careful.

This coming from a guy who wanted

to spend the little money we have

on infomercial knives.

They were not just any ordinary knives.
