Yes, the business card

instead of a buck.

Ah. I'm not always so cheap.

Pull up.

Okay, so, this is weird.

This is, like, my

first real interview.

Are you really as naive as

you seem?

I don't know. Am I?

Let's find out.

Okay, do you mind if I...

Yes, please.

Okay.

Record away.

This is all very professional.

Hello.

So... Uh, when did you

start writing music?

This morning.

See? Nobody... I have never

met anyone who can do that.

Me either.

Uh, so, performing on the street...

I mean, who does that anymore?

Does that? People do that.

I do that.

You do do that.

I don't know.

I love to play, you know?

Mm.

And, uh... I'm really

broke, so, uh, the

money helps.

But, uh, you know, business

cards are also welcome.

Oh.

Thanks for that.

Just, uh... you're welcome.

...hard to pay for the rent

on business cards.

Mm-hmm.

Hard to pay for groceries with

it.

Oh, no, no.

Oh, God.

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

You just... this cannot happen.

I'm... Drunk

and I am leaving.

There but for the

grace of God go I

Oh, no money in his pocket

And no hope in his eye

Oh, but who am I

But

But for the grace of God?

And there are those

who, when they pray

Jesus Christ.

Were you asleep?

It's 3:
00 in the morning.

I remember a guy that used to

say the party was just getting

started at 3:
00 A.M.

May I help you?

Well, I've decided to do the

no.

I decided that you do the

Matthew piece.

Okay, well, I'm agreeing to it.

I am just so overwhelmed.

F***ing nut-job.

Matthew, man... he was

intense, but in a f***ing sexy

way.

I mean, we broke up three times,

but we always got back together.

I mean, he had his sh*t.

He had his demons.

But he... and he was talented,

as everybody knows.

But there is no way... there is

no way that he would have jumped.

Matthew... he was scared of heights...

Is... Is scared of heights...

Who was scared of heights?

Oh, this musician who's been

lost for years and years...

And years and years.

Really? Lost? Huh.

Charlie.

Ellie.

Ellie Klug.

Okay.

It is good to see you.

Oh.

Coming in for an obligatory hug.

The timing wasn't

right when we dated.

I was emotionally unavailable.

Oh, yeah, that's, uh...

That's probably it.

I do think that your lack of

open-mindedness affected your

judgment of me.

I'm much cooler now.

Hmm?

Miss, could I get a clean

glass, a bottle of

water, and a whole lime?

No.

Is she a friend of yours?

She's closing up.

We're going to a gig.

A gig? Huh.

A gig.

What kind of gig?

Uh, a music show.

A music gig.

Nah. That's not my scene.

Good.

What style music is it?

Alternative rock.

Hmm. Alt rock.

You may call it

that if you wish.

Okay.

"Okay" what?
