- I'm a survivor, Perry.

Remember?

- Billy, I didn't mean

it back there now.

Come on, I'm sorry.

Just get back in the car.

- No, no, you were right.

You had every right, okay?

I needed your help tonight,

and you helped me out.

You did, okay?

Like a true friend.

I thought we just could

hang out a little longer,

talk some more, that's all.

- That's great, Billy.

Just get in the car.

- I don't want be

a bother, Perry.

I don't want to bring

you down with me, man.

- Billy, you're not

going to be a bother.

Just get in the car.

- You sure, Perry?

I don't want to be an

inconvenience to you, you know?

I've been that too many

times before in my life.

- Billy, I'm sure.

Now, get in the car.

Come on, it's

freezing out there.

- Yeah, it is.

All right.

- So, where to?

- How about the old

strip club on route nine?

- Are you serious?

- Uh-huh.

- I haven't been to

one of those places

since my bachelor party.

- Come on, it'll be fun.

Besides, you definitely

need a drink after all that,

that serious talk back there.

- I will second that.

- Do you mind if we stop at

that mini mart on the way?

I gotta pick up some smokes.

It's a bad habit.

Need anything?

- No.

- All right, be right back.

- Hey, did you get 'em?

- Yep.

- All right, Billy.

I've been thinking.

- Uh-oh.

- No, I'm serious, man.

I really need to get home.

- Perry.

- Come on, man.

I've got a lot of

appointments tomorrow, man.

People depend on me.

- How f***in' hard is it to

fit people with eyeglasses?

- It's a little bit more

complicated than that, Billy.

I mean, I've got a

wife and a kid at home.

It's 2:
00 they're sleeping.

What's the big deal?

We'll go out, have a couple

drinks, reminisce a little,

and then you go home

and hop back into bed.

How hard is that?

- Man, I'm really glad

I was able to come

and I'm really glad

nothing happened, but.

- But, you're work

is done here, right?

- That's not what I said, Billy.

I said I've got obligations.

Man, Monday's are the worst.

- Yeah.

How do you think I feel?

- One drink.

One, all right?

- You got it.

One drink, some conversation,

and then we're out of there.

Come on, let's get out of here.

- Yeah.

- So, I really do want to

thank you about tonight.

I was a real goner

until you showed up.

- Forget about it.

Come on, get in the car.

- Let's move on.

Perry, how the hell do you

still live around here?

- What are you talking about?

I have a business.

Besides, you're

from around here.

- Yeah, but I moved

away plenty of times.

- I guess I can understand that.
