We should take his shoes off.

All right, all right.

What?

Don't even think about it.

You telling me it never

crossed your mind?

And you do everything

that crosses your mind?

Don't answer that.

Derrick, I'm not joking.

You're just as capable of

meaningless sex as I am.

Oh, and they say romance is dead.

It'd make our friendship stronger.

Is that right?

He's out.

He'll never know.

Am I alone in this?

I was right.

I felt absolutely nothing.

Well, I felt something!

If we start the rumor three times,

when it came back...

...we could trace it

and see whose moved the fastest.

Doesn't your head hurt?

Then I thought,

"This is not some stupid race. "

People will spread

it back and forth anyway.

None of the lines will match.

It's like chaos theory.

There's gonna be a lot of noise.

It's like rapid gunfire.

You really are not in

the least bit hung-over?

See, he's figured out a way

to make it art.

Travis, this is very good.

Now all we have to do

is tell the story.

- If we do this.

- What do you mean, "If we do this"?

Wait. Jones, this was your idea.

I know, but I don't have anything

against these people.

Aside from the Mont Blanc

and Daddy's limo.

All right.

So you don't like her,

but you don't want to be mean...

...because you're from Plymouth, where

the Pilgrims are from, and they wore...

- ...little buckles on their shoes.

- There were mean Pilgrims.

No, they were too busy

giving thanks.

Are we gonna do this or what?

Jones.

I guess we could stick with

the one already making the rounds.

Did you hear about Jones and Goodwin

at the Pierre?

Oh, so now it's the Pierre?

So?

Let's do it.

The party was cool, although

it took us forever to get home.

- This is yours.

- Thanks.

And we even left early,

before Naomi came down.

She and Beau were up in a bedroom

having sex during the party.

I mean, I thought the line

on her was, like, no sex.

Not that I judge that. A lot of girls

do this chastity thing now. Fine.

- I have to say I was surprised.

- Yeah.

Everybody heard after she got here

that she wasn't putting out.

Because she's beautiful, everyone was,

like... A lot of people think that.

I think her face is too long,

and her nose.... It's me.

I'm just saying,

I'm worried about Naomi.

She takes this position

that she wants to save herself...

...and then she does

something like this!

In the long run, people will

take her less seriously...

...as a human being.

Well, I heard...

I heard....

I respect women that

are not into casual sex...

...except at a party.

I heard, when he put

his hand in her crotch...

At first she resisted, but...

You know these things.

I heard about that. Like, six guys
