I broke into your apartment--

I know. I know. I know.

But--don't take this the wrong way,

but I just think you're a nice guy.

That's all.

Okay.

Good.

Where does a nice guy sleep?

A nice guy

sleeps on the couch.

What are you doing?

I'm watching you sleep.

Lisa!

Hey, how are you?

What are you doing here?

I gotta talk to you.

Now?

Yeah, it's kind of important.

Wanna go get a drink or something?

It's freezing out here.

- Okay.

- Okay? Come on.

My friend gave my stuff

to this head of the agency, and...

he liked it.

So...

he offered me a job in New York.

That's great.

It'll help me pay my rent, but...

But what? Why not?

Move in with me.

I--I know it's only been

a couple of months, but I just, um...

You're the reason

I don't wanna move to New York.

I wanna make my life

here with you.

Look, I'm really late for rehearsal.

Can we talk about this tomorrow?

Sure.

Matthew, trust me, okay?

Just meet me tomorrow

in the park. Same time.

Bye.

Have you seen Lisa?

Lisa?

She's gone on a European tour

of Cabaret.

It all happened real fast.

They came to our rehearsal and

just picked her out, and she was gone.

Like...did she say anything

before she left?

Like what?

Like, uh...

Cool. Thanks.

Okay.

- Hi.

- Hi.

You want a cup of coffee?

Yeah, sure. Thanks.

No.

No.

No.

Yeah.

He broke all my cups.

That's original.

Sugar?

Thanks. Yeah.

Thank you.

To us.

Leaving?

Yeah. I have to go to work.

I'm due at the hospital.

That's right.

You're a nurse.

I got a double shift.

You should stay.

You have a key?

Yeah.

Well, I should be back by 10:00.

Will I see you later?

Maybe.

Yeah.

- Bye.

- Bye.

You were at Bellucci's on Monday.

Yeah. I was.

Hello?

What happened to you?

Hang on.

Just a minute!

Look, could I stay at your place

for a couple of days?

-Yeah. of course.

- Great.

Well, I've gotta call Daniel first,

then I'll be right over.

- Okay.

- Bye.

Lisa!

Oh, sh*t. Get up.

You know.

at the restaurant.

I would've bet anything

you were this girl I used to know.

But now seeing you here. you don't

really look that much like her at all.

Hi.

Come on, Lisa.

Don't start sh*t like that.

Look, I don't have time--

I don't wanna talk about it anymore.

Stop acting like a goddamn child

about this crap!

Stop screaming at me!

Lisa, what are you doing?

Jesus Christ. Be careful.

It's over. Get out of my house.

Stop! Enough!

Get back in here now!

- You're gonna kill yourself!

- Don't do it!

Lisa, stop this!

Is this how you deal

with your problems?

Huh? You run away

and act like a child?

Go home, and don't bother

Hi.

- Goddamnit!

- Can I come in?

Of course.

I'm sorry.
