The Dinner Page #3

- A needy, self-centered, little sh*t.

- Well, he's hardly ever home.

I don't mean Stan.

I mean, Beau, the kid.

You know, running for public office.

Bullshit, Stan.

Elitist, self-serving,

just like mother raised him.

Stan is for Stanley.

I teach public school.

I give them money sometimes,

for, you know, whatever.

And I'm--I'm not racist.

My mother and Stan. Jesus.

Well, it was, um,

Like some trophy.

Right there on the staircase.

I was, like, 11 years old, and I...

I said, "Get a room, you two."

And she lost it. She just...

What was his name?

Press called him the "blind cowboy."

[exhales deeply]

Hey, stop.

Stop.

That was kind of outrageous

what you said to her.

It was worth it, though.

It got her attention.

Mm-hmm.

But you weren't really unconscious,

were you?

- Mm.

- Mm.

It was a beautiful moment.

Oh.

Thomas Gore.

The blind senator.

F*** Google.

F*** Google.

[chuckles softly]

[pop music playing]

Mr. Lohman. Are we okay?

Are we okay?

I don't know, Heinz.

I don't know.

Do you have kids?

- No, I don't.

- Why not?

I think it's more selfish to have kids

than to not have them.

Yeah.

- Right?

- Yeah. Sure.

We were duped into having kids

by our genes

- That's what I think.

- Kinda dark.

[sighs] You chose well, Heinz.

Who are the f***ers?

The... the kids?

People who want you

to have kids?

Would your genes like a cocktail

while you're here?

Absolutely, no problem.

Coming right up.

Yo, let's get some beer

before we get the cab.

I'm tired.

- The door's busted.

- I mean, you only had, like, three.

What happened?

That was f***ing quick.

- What's going on?

- There's somebody in there.

Smells like sh*t.

It's disgusting.

Oh, sh*t.

- Is he dead?

- I think so.

- Paul--

- Turns out, hitting the head

All right.

I guess it's just the three of us.

That's probably better.

Thank you. Thanks.

I can't be a father again.

I can't do it.

You know, she's young.

She uses it as a distraction,

That's why I think it's good

she's talking to another woman about it.

- So sorry.

- Yeah.

Okay.

All right. Well, just check

and make sure these dates work.

Oh, she's terrific.

There's someone with a sense of

commitment, dedication. I'm serious.

And for the record,

I didn't even know those boys

were going to the party that night.

- Does Katelyn know?

- Yes, she knows.

And I'm assuming that Claire

knows everything?

I don't, uh... I don't get you,

Nobody.

Oh, my. Uh, well, my bad.

Heinz, I thought we were friends.

- Stan:
I'm so sorry.

- Heinz:
Yeah, that's okay.

He'll be back.

His first wife Barbara left him

to go live in an ashram in India.

She lost it.

You'd think it would make him
