Absolutely.

Both times.

So when was the last time?

Um, 1933.

Oh, I see.

And who was he?

Your college boyfriend?

Yeah, I bet he was the...

He was the captain

of the drinking team.

Wasn't ready for a relationship.

Oh, I wish I had been that lucky.

No, it was my shrink, actually.

You know the story.

I thought I was lonely,

and he forgot he was married.

That's okay.

It didn't last very long.

My mom developed Alzheimer's

around then, so it was really...

You know what?

I'm gonna shut up right now.

- I'm just gonna be quiet.

- It's okay.

No, actually, it's me

who doesn't want to hear it.

Sorry. I'm rambling a little bit

because I'm a little nervous.

You want a drink?

Thank you.

So, what's this for?

It's, uh...

It's for shark fishing.

Shark fishing?

You grow up with guns.

Who am I?

I'll tell you who I am.

I'm Captain Goddamn America

Please, somebody,

I need help.

Keys. Okay.

What? No.

How did I get here?

How'd I get here?

How long have I been here?

Three days.

Try not to talk too much.

Oh, we found a man's wallet...

filled with pesos

and a lot of U. S. dollars.

- We tried to contact him...

- No. He...

No. There was no luck

finding this man.

There was a disk.

Green square, plastic disk.

Ah, yes.

The disk was ruined by the sun.

You relax now, hmm?

Get well.

- No. I need...

- In a few days.

Look at you now.

You haven't got the strength. Please.

My clothes.

How much do I owe you?

Please. You have to relax now.

You have to rest.

- You need a few days.

- I need my clothes.

I have to go.

I just need my clothes.
