Laurel Canyon Page #3

Just keeping doors shut and stuff.

I think she would appreciate it.

I want her to feel

comfortable here.

Yeah so do I.

The situation is kind of

foreign to her.

She is used to working

in a... lab or in an office.

Alone.

She is not used to

being around people.

She must get lonely.

Okay.

Come on Claudia, I'm not gonna slap

some bullshit together for a radio.

I don't work that way,

you know that.

I hear you babe, but there's a slot

open now, and we need to jump.

I got to have all my elements

in place for the holidays.

- We need to move units...

- Christmas?

Oh Claudia, please

don't take me there,

Please don't depress me. I couldn't

give a sh*t about Christmas.

F*** Christmas

This isn't an action call,

you know what you've got.

Why are you up my ass?

See this is why

we get into trouble Jane.

And this is why you always

end up coming back to me.

God I love that woman.

- Where are we?

- 2 minutes.

Good. This is a locked

ward, obviously,

and these are the patients

in the locked ward...

...some of whom you'll be getting

to know intimately very soon.

I'm not stealing them!

Note my medication

is still missing.

No it's down your sleeve!

Sarah Gowlyn, second year

resident, extraordinary.

Meet the new recruits.

I think I'm bringing them down.

Tell them it's not so bad.

It's not so bad.

You see it's not so bad.

Alright. Onward.

Christmas. A limited universe,

depressing really.

- Increase the dose of Welbutrin.

- I'll increase the dose of Vicodan.

Move that, little lady in a track suite.

- Do you know what I think?

- I don't. I'm dying. Tell me.

I think I made a beautiful record,

and the cowards will notice last.

You are very deep.

- Do you think so?

- I do.

- When you're not talking.

- F*** off!

- I'm sorry. Let me turn it down.

- No, it's fine, really.

So, what are you

working on upstairs?

- Excuse me?

- You seem extremely absorbed.

I'm writing.

- A novel?

- No, my dissertation.

Great. What's it on?

- What's it on?

- Do you have a subject?

- Specifically?

- Yes.

We went to university.

We can handle it.

The genomic determinants of sexual

behaviour in the drosophila fruit fly

and its implications

for Homo Sapiens.

Really?

The sex life of flies...

No, the reproductive

behaviour of the fruit fly.

Excuse me.

He didn't mean it, Alex.

He's got low self-esteem.

He had acne as a child.

You c*nts!

There is not much in here.

we've been doing take- out lately.

That's okay.

Is there a store nearby?

- Why don't you join us

- No...

Seriously, Alex. You don't

have to be polite with me.

Polite isn't my thing.

I'm sure Sam told you that.

I wasn't being polite.
