or is it, like...?

lf your counselor catches you using,

you can get kicked out.

l don't plan on discussing it

with him.

Too late.

Generally, people come to rehab

not to get loaded.

Well, l try not to run with the pack.

You're a real individual.

You're the only person

who does drugs and alcohol.

l meant what l said.

You get caught using,

you risk getting kicked out.

Fair enough. We done?

And believe me,

l'll know if you're using.

You always this charming?

You always use humor to

deflect things when you're uneasy?

Do you always use insight

to disarm your new recruits?

-What's that?

-lt's literature about your disease.

AA Big Book, some worksheets.

A journal l want you

to write in every day.

l suppose l have to do this.

You got better things to do

with your time?

Hey, listen.

This isn't the last lousy day

you'll have here.

So remember, God never dumps

more on us than we can handle.

ls that available stitched

on a pillow?

Tonight's Iecture: ''Are You A BIackout

Drunk, Or Don't You Remember?.''

You going down?

My problem is, my father just

happened to watch DateIine...

...the night they're doing

some expos...

...on Park Avenue drug users...

...the night he caught me

doing blow in the bathroom.

But l don't have a problem.

l don't have health problems.

l play Ultimate Frisbee

two times a week.

And l'm, you know, a patron of the

arts, and diseases and cures and stuff.

That's what l spend my money on.

So l like to have a little bit of fun.

CoDA starts at 8 p.m. in B.

CAs and NAs meet tomorrow...

...and overeaters, sexuaI addicts....

Who the hell do you have to know

to get a drink around here?

Oh, God.

Oh, my God, l love you so much.

-Where are all the celebrities?

-There are none.

What? Come on.

All anyone wants from rehab's

a good coked-out star story.

Elizabeth Taylor, weeping in group

about how she never felt beautiful.

Never. Not one single day.

Now, that's the story they want.

-l'll get you out of here.

-l'm not supposed to leave.

You're not supposed to have

Mummy's Little Helper, either.

Hold on, hold on.

Okay, go.

Be very, very quiet. l'm hiding.

Be very, very quiet.

Drunk men stagger, drunk men faII

Drunk men swear and that's not aII

Quite often they wiII urinate outdoors
