Just give me a little air.

I can't move.

I can't move.

Or can I?

- Ah.

Oh. That's-that's

much better. Well...

Well. What's this?

Your insurance company.

Neck and back

scares the sh*t out of them.

I'm in the business. Pal. It was easy.

I got this pet doctor. It was nothing.

Oh. I'm gonna keep five

if that's okay with you guys.

Yes. Priscilla.

It's true.

It-It was a scam.

And I'm...

I'm terribly. Terribly sorry.

You broke the law. Eddy.

For us?

What are friends for?

Oh. I don't think we can

accept this. We appreciate it.

- We really do.

- I love this woman.

"I don't think we can accept it"?

It's not that we don't

need the money.

Priscilla. Please. Don't insult me.

I did this for you.

For you.

Now. Come on.

I've been wearing

that neck brace for weeks.

What do you say?

I don't know what to say.

But thanks.

Can't sleep?

No.

You think too much.

What about you?

Is Priscilla asleep?

What about Eddy?

No.

He's at the Watkins'. You know.

the people that own the cabins.

Probably trying to buy the place.

Always looking for a deal.

How long you been married?

Thirteen?

Fourteen years.

Have you been faithful

all those years?

Yeah.

What about you?

I guess I'm kind of

old-fashioned that way.

I guess we both are. Huh?

- Baby, yeah

- Lori?

- Hi. Honey. It's Mom.

- I wanna jump in the middle

- Yeah. We're in a bar.

- And wallow around

- And keep on drinkin'till

I feel like I'm drowned

- No. It's very. Very nice.

- Honey. We decided to stay

another night. All right?

- I want a piece of the party

- So if you need anything...

- And party till I see the light

- Go on. Go on.

- I want a piece of the party

- And party till I see the light

- I'm gonna talk to the guy.

and you're gonna do it.

Give 'em hell.

As I reach out to you

Like a child would do

Darling, don't let me down

I love you so

And I guess you know

That I'm too far gone

To turn around

You wanna f*** my wife.

don't you?

- If I give you my heart

- Oh. Don't look so scared. Richard.

It's no big deal.

- Most guys want to f*** my wife.

- Please don't telephone
