The Loft Page #3

So this is your loft?

No. It's ours.

- If you want it.

- What?

Ours?

Think about it.

No messy hotel bills. No

questionable credit card activity.

This would be our secret place to steal

away, discreetly and economically

in these challenging times.

A five-way split.

What do you think?

I don't know.

I'm not like that.

Come on, Chris. We're men.

We're all a little like that.

Yeah. Tell me about it.

Give me your key right now.

Bring your twins up here, give

'em a little private tour.

You know what they cost, Marty?

How much? I might have it

on me right now. Seriously.

Think about it.

It's a great investment.

A once-in-a-lifetime

golden opportunity.

I can't stay here.

- Where you going? Luke?

- Hey, hey!

You cannot freak out right now.

We have to stay

together like we said!

All right. Really, Luke, you

just need to calm the f*** down.

No! No! It's over, Vincent!

It's all gonna come out!

It's not over.

Listen, we're gonna find out

what happened here

and we're gonna fix it!

Okay?

Try Phil again.

This is Philip. Please leave

a message after the tone.

What if he doesn't show?

He could be out of

the country by now.

He'll show.

We can't cover for him,

Chris. Not this time.

Guys!

Look at this.

What's it mean?

What does it mean?

You know Latin, Doctor?

Excuse me?

Latin.

Do you know Latin?

I took it, pre-Med, yeah.

What's it say on

the wall there?

"Fatum nos iungebit."

Yeah, I know.

"Fatum nos iungebit. "

I can read that.

What's it mean?

I'm guessing you already

know what it means.

No. We would like

to hear you say it.

You'd like to hear me say it. Okay.

"Fatum nos iungebit. "

"Fate will unite us."

Now, all I can

possibly think is that

somebody who knows

Latin like you,

reached over with

this young lady's hand

and wrote, "Fatum nos

iungebit" on the wall.

"Fatum nos iungebit" is wrong.

How so, Doctor?

The future imperfect tense of the

verb unite, iungere, is not iungebit.

It's iunget. It should

say, "Fatum nos iunget. "

So the person you're looking for

made a classic Latin error.

But I'm guessing you knew that

already, too, didn't you?

You know the phrase "f*** you"?

Germanic origin.

Where's your brother?

I'm sorry, I can't

help you with that one.

Right. Well, actually, he's

your half-brother, isn't he?

Same mother, different fathers.

He spent some time in various

institutions with your half-sister, Zoe?

Yeah. That's right.

After our mother died, uh,

Philip wasn't as

lucky with his father.

Apparently not.

Alcoholic child beater.

Mmm-hmm.

You didn't spend much time with

Philip back then, did you?

No. But now you're best friends.

Well, we've had a lot
