-Yeah, l know, you said that.

But you know what? l think that

probably would be the best idea.

Because, l mean, after all,

l am the ''rapist.''

Help!

-Try it again. Do it again.

-Christian!

Listen, Elizabeth, there's two

reasons why that's stupid.

One, it hurts my ears

when you scream that loud...

...and two, these walls, Elizabeth,

they're soundproof.

So no one can hear anything

that you're saying.

Oh, by the way, do you know

what ''statutory rape'' is?

Last year, after we left this house,

l got caught with an underage girl.

She was 1 4 going on, like, 24.

lt just seemed fine. She was a hell

of a lot more mature than l was.

We only had sex once.

And, really, it wasn't even that good.

-Why are you telling me?

-Because the girl blackmailed me.

One week later l received a videotape

in the mail...

...of us screwing at her apartment.

Or, actually,

her parents' apartment.

There was also an address to a P.O. box

for me to send my monthly check.

-l'm sorry.

-You're sorry?

l'm sorry no one ever told me

l had such a hairy ass.

Christian?

-No vino?

-Where's Christian?

Don't worry about that.

l decided to make margaritas.

-Where is everybody?

-Drinking, smoking and f***ing, l hope.

Why do you always have to be so crass?

My manner isn't pleasing.

Do you want me to change it? l will.

l can be just as prim

and proper as you.

l'll feel guilty for anything bad

and resent anyone having a good time.

lt's called growing up, right?

Have you seen Christian?

l was telling Elizabeth how we're happy

we got the group together. You okay?

You b*tches are killing me.

Margaritas in the wintertime?

What's wrong with you people?

What? l like them.

Piper, a margarita is a summer drink.

This is totally inappropriate.

Tropical drink.

-Mexico is fun. l love parasailing.

-Have any of you seen Christian?

-No.

-No.

-What's wrong?

-She doesn't like margaritas.

No, it's Adam. He attacked me

down in the wine cellar.

-What did--? He touched you?

-No, he insulted and threatened me.

Did he insult you or attack you?

There's a big difference.

Unless, of course,

he attacks your character.

Elizabeth. What did he do?

Adam?

Hello?

-Nobody's down here. This is stupid.

-This is stupid.

l never wanted to have this

reunion weekend in the first place.

This house is for entertaining.

Tomorrow night, it's just

gonna be me and you.

We'll have a nice big steak

and a bottle of Lafitte Rothschild.

Our favorite.

Oh, my God.

Jesus.

-ls he dead?

-You should know! Jesus!

What are you talking about?

When you said he attacked you,

Elizabeth...

...l guess you were telling the truth,

only you had it backwards.

Except for the notecard and the fact
