Actually, we don't.

Do you want some coffee?

-Um, do you have tea?

-Yeah.

-Oh, wow, look at

this, a tea box.

-We're sort of-- sort of

hooked up that way.

-Yeah.

I'll take a chai spice.

-Yeah, why not?

I have to say, that was, like,

the best sleep I've had in

five years.

Not joking.

Hollywood is so noisy.

-Yeah, sometimes I find the

birds in this neighborhood can

be rather cacophonous.

You know, loud and chirpy.

-Rachel told me that

you invent apps.

-She wasn't lying.

MCKENNA (OFFSCREEN):

I love apps.

MCKENNA (OFFSCREEN): Yeah.

-Yeah?

-You like your job?

-Um, I used to.

I recently sold the, or

got bought, merged.

There are any number of ways to

describe what actually went

down with Happy Farm.

Logan, hey.

-Buddy, this is McKenna.

She's, um, uh, a friend

of your mom's.

I've heard a lot about you.

-Yeah?

I love your monkey backpack.

-I asked for an elephant.

-Well, talk to your mom.

-I did.

-We're gonna get you hooked up

with breakfast real quick, Mr.

Man, because we are running

a little late.

-OK.

RACHEL (OFFSCREEN): Hey.

-Hi.

RACHEL (OFFSCREEN):

Uh, good morning.

Logan, you met my

friend McKenna?

-Yeah.

McKenna, Jeff.

You got it.

-Great.

How did you--

How did you sleep?

-Really, really good.

-Oh good.

Oh good, you--

Good.

-Quiet in here.

-Yeah.

So, um, uh, you can take

Logan to school today?

Jeff, I just want to make

sure that McKenna is--

-Got it, I am on it.

--taken care of.

-Thank you.

-OK, great.

You need milk.

-OK.

OK, she looks like a completely

different person,

-I know.

-She looks like a college

kid or something.

-Right?

Dancing is just her job.

A job does not define

who you are.

-Right.

-I really think I

can help her.

She had a really

difficult life.

-Oh, lordy, lordy, lordy.

OK, all right.

I'm shaking it out.

There's a stripper in my pool.

No big.

-OK.

Oh, that's a nice looking one.

-Yeah, is that OK?

What do strippers like?

-Not that, because she's sober.

-Oh.

Good for her.

-Imagine that you're

cleaning out a rim.

-OK?

-Cleaning out a rim.

It's a big rim.

It's more like a

trash can size.

-OK.

-Oh, like a garbage can rim.

-Her shame is trapped there.

We gotta get that exercised.

Be gentle with it.

-Shame.

-Stephanie!

-I really got this.

-Stephanie!

-You're waking up

in the morning.

-Should we give her a pole?

-You want--

-Oh sh*t.

-Yeah.

-Body.

-No, you guys.

-Those are the guys that come

in and they're like, lap

dance, lap dance, lap

dance, every night.

And they always have their

favorite girls.

And they're the ones that tell

you things like, oh baby, I'm

gonna be the one that gets

to see you for real.
