The Loft Page #2

hipster crowd with my pal Luke.

Mmm-hmm.

Yeah, if you embarrass me, I'll

leave you here all by yourself.

Oh, don't raise my hopes

only to dash them.

Hi, Luke.

Where's Ellie?

Oh, she was just feeling dizzy.

Ducked out to check

her blood sugar.

Hi, Elle.

Do you feel okay?

Oh, I, um, started to feel not-so-great

before, but I'm better now.

We can always go home, sweetie.

Did you hear that?

"Sweetie!"

After she just checked

her blood sugar.

That's funny.

That's really good.

I would love to see you deal with

something like that if that was me.

Oh, you know, baby, I'd love to

stick you in the ass every day.

- How many times have I asked?

- Honey?

Lots.

Not now.

You're the shrink, aren't you?

Uh, yeah, that's right.

Chris Vanowen.

Ah, Dr. Vanowen, that's right.

Yes, I remember.

Do we know each other? Uh, no.

You knew my sister.

She was a patient of

yours actually. Sophie?

Sophie Morris?

Oh.

I'm sorry.

I'm really sorry.

Some people

are just born unhappy.

I'm sorry. Are you

buying an apartment?

What? Um, no, no. I'm

friends with the architect.

Ah.

Are you?

No, I'm here with Joel Kotkin.

The city councilman.

I work for him as sort

of a personal assistant.

Oh.

I'm Anne. Anne Morris.

Very nice to meet you, Anne.

And listen,

about your sister...

It's okay.

You couldn't have saved her. Her mood

disorder kind of runs in the family.

Unfortunately, so...

Well, you're not thinking of doing

something stupid, are you, Anne?

Me?

Oh, you mean like falling

for the wrong man? Well...

I do that all the time.

Everything's all right!

Come on, keep partying!

What are you doing?

Phil, I should've guessed.

Hey, Vince, what's up? Hey. How are ya?

Thanks for comin'.

I'm sorry about this.

She slipped, man.

No worries. As long as you're okay.

You all right?

I'm fine.

She's fine. Come on.

Let me introduce

you to a colleague

who works with

me at the office.

And this one works with

me down at the office.

Or is it the other way around?

Philip?

Oh, my big brother.

How ya doin', man?

Friends of Vicky's? Bridesmaids?

Oh...

Come on, man. I'm still single, you know?

What are you doing?

What? It's not like I don't

love my little Vicky.

I love her madly, you know that.

All right?

It's not like I hate all the

other women in the world.

All right.

All right. Relax.

There's something I want to show you.

Let's go get Marty and Luke.

Chris?

Gentlemen, welcome to the loft.

Wow!

This is impressive, Vince.

Check out the view.

Then imagine that this

is our own private oasis

right in the heart of downtown.

What do you mean?

A place where

no one hassles you.

A place you can escape

to any time you want.
