He's young. You could always

change it. He might not notice.

-Okay.

-Well, no, we like the name.

-It's not tall. It's Tal.

-Oh, it's Tal.

You know what? We have to go.

It was so nice to meet you.

Yeah, congratulations. Really.

-Oh, my God.

-That was awful.

-I can't take you anywhere. Awful.

-It was a joke.

-What are you so angry about lately?

-I'm not angry.

Oh, my God. Aren't those the saddest

looking plants you have ever seen?

You are.

I wanna know what you're mad about.

Jesus, that's the f***er

that flipped me off. A**hole.

Okay, you're not angry.

You f***ed at Chaya Venice?

We go there all the time.

-They have great sushi.

-Was it on the sink?

No, it was in the stall

up against the wall.

-Does she like this?

-She starts it.

What is that? Public places.

I don't know.

She's into getting caught.

By whom? Daddy?

Do some raises. Ten.

-I'm fixing you up with Olivia.

-No, you're not.

You need someone normal.

Olivia will f*** you in a bed.

-I have a girlfriend.

-She's married, you idiot.

And she's weird.

You'd be lucky to have Olivia.

She's great.

All right.

Hold.

What does she do?

She used to be a teacher.

I mean, she did until about a year ago.

And she taught at this really fancy

school in Santa Monica.

She taught 11 th grade.

You would not believe

the cars that these kids drove.

And she drives up

in her ancient Honda...

...and they would give her

quarters for food.

They thought it was hilarious.

She couldn't take it anymore.

It's too bad too

because she was so good with kids.

She just loves them,

and she's so patient and giving.

-How are her tits?

-Up.

Really good.

I'm marrying Richard.

I don't care what you say.

He's so wrong for you.

You don't even like the same things.

Doesn't matter.

We have amazing sex.

You know what?

I don't give a sh*t what you do.

I don't think you'd say that.

-Don't type that.

-I don't give a sh*t.

But you do. You just wrecked the car,

I made you so mad.

No, I wrecked the car

because of the lap dance.

-These people are in love.

-Says who?

-Us, at the pitch meeting.

-I don't care. I'm mad at her.

I distanced myself.

-I can't work like this.

-Like what?

-You're bullying me.

-I'm bullying you?

-We're having a discussion.

-No, we're not.

You changed your mind and you're

being stubborn. We write together.

Why is there so much noise?

Maybe because we're building

a second story.

What?

Not too many people

could wear that color.

You could get away with it.

I don't know.

Try this one on.

You can't tell sh*t if you don't try it.

-There are no dressing rooms.

-That's cool. They don't care.

Yeah. Good idea.

-Yeah.

-It looks good.
