to this shithole of a town

definitely qualifies me

as an expert on truckers,

so hit the road, Jack.

One dance.

Baby, you just

give me one dance,

and I will erase every bad

thought you ever had about men.

Oh, yes, I will.

That's right, Charles.

Ooh, like a cat.

Light on my feet, baby. No.

Look at these moves, huh, baby.

A little dip right there.

Oh, yeah, I may be stocky,

but I am agile.

Hi.

Hi.

It's a quiet night, huh?

Yeah. Um...

it's pretty late.

Yeah.

You want a cup of coffee?

Sure.

Half and half

with three sugars, please.

It's perfect.

It's really good.

No, no, no. It's on the house.

Oh.

Thank you.

Gonna go.

Heh. Bye.

So, did you enter that

photo contest at school?

Nah. I'm still trying

to come up with a theme.

Kevin always said you took

your best shots outside.

I don't know. I'm not

even sure I'm gonna enter.

I'm telling you, Charles.

One day...

- I know. Stardom.

- Stardom. Stardom.

Hey, remember those...

remember those shots

you took of me

on my Harley with Kevin?

Those?

Oh, yeah.

- Yeah.

- Yeah.

I still have those.

Yeah, it was... Yeah.

Oh, you used to love

riding, didn't you?

Oh, man, I felt alive

on my bike.

Yeah, I wouldn't mind

having that feeling again.

Look, I am losing fuel fast.

I might just... I'm gonna crash.

Okay? Mm.

Time to get you to bed, cowboy.

I got him. I got him.

All right. Come on.

All right. Thanks.

You sure you don't wanna

eat something else?

- No, no. Thanks.

- All right.

Good night, Charles.

Night, Dad.

Careful.

Cold.

Can you believe Jack? I'm telling

you, I can't stop thinking about him.

The man just never gives up.

I thought you

were done with men.

Oh, I... I am, angel. I am. I am.

He's not gonna fool me.

Don't worry.

They're all sweet and lovey

at the beginning,

and then they turn into Mr. Hyde

right before your very eyes.

Well, I don't get my

hopes too high either.

Oh, come on. Don't say that.

What? Girls don't like me.

What are you talking about?

You just haven't met enough.

It's too early to give up.

You gotta be old

and wrinkled like me.

Then you can be cynical, okay?

- Okay.

- Okay.

"Girls don't like me"?

- Girls don't like me.

- Oh, come on.

They will. Trust me.

They'll knock down your door.

- Right.

- They are.

Yeah, right.

- Hi.

- Hi.

What's going on?

Nothing.

What's that?

It's nothing. Just...

Well, it looks like something.

Let me see.

It's really nothing.

I didn't know

you were a photographer.

I'm... I'm not.

It says here it's

a photography contest.

It's just more

of a hobby kind of.

- A hobby, huh?

- Yeah.

So what are you gonna take pictures

of for your hobby contest?

Well, I was thinking, um,
