Me, I was failling by even

the most miserable of standards.

Hello?

- Hi Angela, it's David.

- David, when can you be here?

- I don't know. When do you want me there?

- As soon as possible.

- OK, how about I come right over?

- That would be fine. I've got the money.

- Good. Let me have the address.

- You know the address.

- Let me have it again.

- 3540 North Beverly.

I'll be there soon.

And now with breaking news

here's Jeff Norman. Jeff?

As the hero cop Rodney Krumb

was bury today,

the autorities pledged they will not rest

until the killer is brought to justice.

A massive manhunt ...

As I was driving towards Angela's house,

I couldn't help but wonder

What will be the next horror

I'll discover about myself.

You're here.

Come on in.

Money's on the table.

Take it.

- Aren't you gonna count it?

- I trust you.

- Did you bring the stuff?

- You mean drugs? No.

Then give me back my f***ing money.

I still want the session.

I'm sure you can deliver that.

I'm sorry about the drugs.

I'll bring them next time.

You're a regular one stop shopping for sin.

Oh well, booze will have to do.

How did you get these?

You of all people should know.

Come. You'll have to do the other hand.

What's the matter?

Get the whip.

I'm in the mood for the heavier one.

What are you doing?

Where are the keys?

What do you want with them?

Not on the mouth.

I am sorry.

I hope you'll realize

I'm not paying you for this sh*t.

You can stay the night if you want to.

Angela, I'm so sorry.

Amnesia? That's cool.

- Like we're in a good mistery or something.

- I'm glad you approve.

David, are you sure you wanna remember?

It's not easy to live when you don't like yourself.

I am who I am wether I remember it or not.

I know.

You seem to be doing well.

Yeah, I guess I was doing well there for a while.

All this is a mirage you know.

Car is being repossesed

and I defaulted on my mortgage payment

I don't even know how many times.

It's kind of hard to hold on to a job and pay bills

when you have a full blown heroine habbit.

I just don't understand why

you would choose to remember.

Angela, I have to.

Someone is trying to kill me

and I gotta know who and I gotta know why.

- I'm sure many people want you dead.

- Yourself included?

Not right now.

Angela, have you ever met a guy

by the name of Sam Ruben?

Yeah, he came to talk to me about you.

Asked a lot of questions about you ...

I didn't so I told him so ...

There was something about the guy ...

- What do you mean?

- He had very kind eyes.

He was an intimidating presence, for sure

but he had very kind eyes.

So you have no idea

why this guy is trying to kill me?
