The Lionshare

Synopsis: Nick gets his girls the same way he gets his music: online. On a first date, Eva invites him to an exclusive file-sharing community called 'The Lionshare'. From there, Nick's own creative frustration fuels his consumption of pirated music and other media while he produces nothing of his own. Eventually, he finds inspiration in the unlikeliest of places.

But if you go over here it looks like it's dripping blood. Girl.. Oh... Matty.. l wonder who goes about that. Is it sorrt of like some guy who owns the place Matty.. has his friends decorate it or is it just people do it and then... Girl.. So l recently starrted Netti-Potting... Matty.. l think you're too caught up in the content, you know? Matty.. l mean like eveybody that people think did totally original stuff was just ripping on someone else. You know? Nick.. That's true. Matty.. l mean Kurrt Cobain said when he made ''Smells Like Teen Spirit'' Matty.. He was basically tying to make a really good Pixies song. Nick.. Right, yeah. Totally. l never heard that but l can see that. Nick.. l'm sure like when The Pixies were making their songs they were like Nick.. ''Oh let's make a really great Talking Heads song.'' Matty.. They had that flyer out for their bassist and it was like someone that has Matty.. the influences of Peter Paul & May and Husker Du. And that's how the bassist joined the band. Nick.. The Pixies? Matty.. Yeah. Nick.. That's crazy. Isn't the bassist the girl? Matty.. Uh-huh. Kim Deal. Nick.. That's crazy. Bracey.. l don't know a Marty pUppy what's a Marrty-puppy? Bracey..

So, when he wanted to go see it again, l blew him off and l kind of feel like a dick about it. Jane.. Why? Matty.. l don't know. l mean, it's kind of like this old tradition -- l can't find the thing, by the way, for this. l'm looking for my thing. Jane.. This is your house. Jane..

But yeah like, l have to pay like over $700 in textbooks. Jane.. Where -- l don't have $700 for textbooks. Nick.. Right. Because you already gave them like thousands of dollars... Jane.. Right, l already gave them my soul, l signed that away. Nick.. Yeah, right. Jane.. It didn't cover textbooks though. Nick.. That's ridiculous, you're already paying them to like, spend that time to give you all that information. Jane.. l know, it's like... Nick.. The education, that's what you're paying for. Jane.. Right, eXactly, it's like, give me the f***ing books, Jane.....you owe me that, and then l will Iearn. Nick.. Yeah. Jane.. Yeah, it's really backwards. Nick.. It's ass-backwards. Jane..

Matty.. We've been roommates for a long time, it's only been a matter of time. Jane.. l don't even know what that means. Matty..

Matty.. l mean what little piece of technology knew l wasn't going to be home Matty.. so it sabotaged itself so l couldn't watch the show? Matty.. It's the principle of the matter, man, it's the f***ing principle. Matty.. This is why we should not have thrown out our f***ing VCR. Matty.. l don't need quality. l just want to know what happened. Nick.. You don't need quality? You don't prefer quality? Matty.. Ah, it's a TV show. It's a TV show. Nick.. Well l mean, l was going to get it off the Internet you know with great quality and no commercials Nick.. but if you're not into that sorrt of thing... Matty.. Well l mean if you're going to do it, then by all means do it, l'm just saying Matty.. when you need your fix, it doesn't matter the grade, you just take it. Nick.. Right.

No. l haven't been into them much. Ever since they got like really big and like played on the radio and stuff. Nick.. Yeah no l heard them on the radio. Eva.. l think l heard them on an Apple commercial the other day. Nick.. An Apple commercial? Oh yeah it's for that new iPod that like...probably sucks your dick or something. Nick.. Those things can do eveyrything. Eva.. Blow dy your hair with it. Nick.. Blow dy your hair...cheese grater... Nick.....snow shoes... Matty.. Evey time l ty to get out, they pull me back in. Fredo! Fredo! Eva.. What is that from? Matty.. It's from The Godfathers. It's one of those moving pictures. You know, like that sexy one. Bracey.. Two seniors for Sarica Jessica Parker's ''Sexy Town'' please. Matty.. l work at a movie theater, and you ever notice when old people come in Matty.. theyjust never remember the title of the movie they want to see? Eva.. Mm-hmm. Matty.. Well, l've kind of whittled it down to a couple of basic rules. Matty.. First off, if the word ''the'' is in front of a title, theyjust totally omit it. Or they add it if it isn't there. Matty.. They also do this thing where they pluralize and de-pluralize movies. Matty.. So ''Transformers'' ends up becoming like Matty.. ''Five seniors for 'The Transformer'.'' You know? ''And a pickle.'' Bracey.. ''l Transform.'' Matty.. ''l Transform.'' Matty.. This woman come in once and she was like ''Give me three seniors for 'Failure to Launch'.'' Matty.. And there's no movie even close to that title on the marquee. Matty.. Oh, l f***ed it up. Nick.. You said 'Failure to Launch'... Nick.....and that's what it was. Matty.. It was 'Failure to Launch'. Matty.. Yeah. She asked for 'Full Throttle', l'm sory. But she was like Matty.. ''Yeah give me one for 'Full Throttle'.'' So she went from 'Failure to Launch' to 'Full Throttle' somehow. Matty.. l don't know how. Eva.. They both have to do with, like, flying. Bracey.. Throttling....you like throttling. Matty.. Dude. Matty.. All right, so give me a title, l'll give you an eXample. Name a movie. Eva.. Okay, umm... Eva.....Ghostbusters. Bracey.. Two seniors for... 'The Great Ghost Bust'. Eva.. That's breaking the rules. You're not following the rules. Matty.. Once you know the rules you can do whatever you want, you know? Matty.. It's like jazz. You have a foundation and you just keep going from there. Bracey.. You feel your way through it. Eva.. That's awesome. They totally do that. Matty.. Yeah it's true. Eva.. It's like -- what's that thing you say? It's like a total -- it's like a polar bear fact. Bracey.. That's cute. Nick.. Shut up. Nick.. It's Bear Fact. Eva.. Bear fact. Nick.. Yeah. Nick.. You can't have that joke; that's my joke. It's not yours. Bracey.. All right... Matty.. l think that was myjoke anyway. Bracey.. l kind of thought it was a communal thing. Matty.. Hey baby boy. Matty.. Coffee's up if you want it. Nick.. Thanks. Matty.. l see you had a long night last night. Nick.. Yeah, it was pretty long. Matty.. Yeah. What'd you think of Bracey's new girlfriend? Nick.. She's nice. Matty.. Yeah. Slammin' body. Matty.. Hey did you happen to download Lost? Matty.. You're my man with the hook-ups SOn. Nick.. F***. Matty.. What? Matty.. This site has been closed for... F***. That sucks. Nick.. Yeah...you just knew it was going to end this way though. Matty.. Well, come on man, we'll make our own. We'll call it The Bear Share. Nick.. Bear's don't share. Matty.. Sure they do. Nick.. No they don't. They don't share. Matty.. Yes they do...all right, well what do they do? Lions share... Nick.. They mate. Bears mate. Matty.. Bears mate? Okay... Nick.. l'm not a bear anymore. Matty.. You're always a bear, man. Matty.. Well let's see, lions share, bear...facts. We got tiger...beats? Matty.. Hey. l just wrote you a song.
