- Okay, Chris, don't.

Please don't leave,

we can fix this.

Just, you just have to try.

- Just because you won't let

me forget what I did wrong

doesn't mean that I

don't spend every day

wishing I could change it.

But I can't go back

in the past, Mom.

And I've come to accept that.

Why can't you?

- No, Chris, wait!

- Gee.

Control, six Lincoln 20,

code seven over, over?

- Roger, 20.

Are you okay, Chris?

- Negative, Control, 20 out.

Why couldn't I just

say, I'm sorry?

I'm sorry.

See?

I'm sorry.

Jesus!

- Christopher!

- Turn the vehicle off, please.

- Yes, sir.

Well, I guess I was wrong.

The diner.

I said there wasn't

gonna be a next time.

- You know how fast

you were going?

- Uh, no.

- You could have

killed somebody.

Something funny?

- No, sir.

- What's the deal with those?

- Those, just some

side work I do.

Irrigation, stuff like that.

- License and registration.

- Sure thing.

- What was that?

- I don't know.

- Pop the trunk.

Now!

- Yes, sir.

- Now!

- Yes, sir.

- Yeah, that's how my son was,

really disrespectful

and stubborn,

always wanting someone

at his beck and call.

- You're talking about

him in the past tense.

- Yeah, I haven't

talked to him in years.

That's just how it is.

- Sorry about that.

- Evening, sir.

Take a seat anywhere,

I'll be in in a second.

- Hey.

- Hey.

So, get any good shots?

- Couple.

- They gonna

make you rich and famous?

- I doubt I'll be

as famous as Avedon

but it's an interesting hobby.

- So you're just gonna be one

of those starving artists?

- Are we starving?

- No, no thanks to you.

- What's that mean?

- I hate to break it to you

but your trust ain't

gonna last forever.

- You know, you're one

of a handful of people

who believes that seven

figures won't last a lifetime.

- At the rate you spend it?

- On you.

- Oh.

You're regretting it yet?

- Course not, I love you.

- Sasha Harrington Carlisle.

Geez.

I sound like I was born with

a silver spoon up my ass.

- We talked about

this, no hyphens.

- Uh, yeah, hyphens.

Consider yourself lucky.

I was gonna keep my last name.

Taking the groom's name?

It's too f***ing patriarchal.

- You don't want my name?

- In Korea,

wives don't take their

husbands' last name.

- I didn't know we lived

in Korea, which Korea?

- The good one.

So, my David, I've been

meaning to ask you something.

- Yeah.

- This brooding photographer

sh*t is for the birds.

When are you gonna

get a real job?

- A real job.

Refresh my memory.

- I know this is a very

foreign concept to you,

but most people tend

to leave their house

for eight hours a

day, five days a week,

and they go to this magical,
