Wristcutters: A Love Story Page #4

- Get them fixed by tomorrow.

- T omorrow?

Yeah. T omorrow.

F***ing shift stick.

This is the last time I sleep in the car.

Yeah.

Where are my shades?

I dr- I dropped them.

Man, I told you to be

careful about that, man.

- I know, I know.

- God damn it.

I was, Eugene. It's- It's so bright.

I didn't mean to drop them

under there.

I gotta- I gotta piss, man.

Aah! God damn!

What the hell?

Morning, boys.

Nothing like a good

night's sleep, huh?

These headlights

are giving me a headache.

But you give me a day or two,

I'll have it fixed up

once and for all and forever.

That's how Mike does it.

Once and all and for- forever.

Wait. Look at this,

look at this, look at this.

Looks like you owe me

first beer of the day.

I told you, man. No one can fix

the headlights in this car.

You asleep?

Yeah, man, I'm asleep.

You're missing a lot of beautiful sh*t.

Can't believe you lost my shades.

Holy sh*t.

Oh, geez!

What the- Wait. What- Oh-

Eugene, what?

What?

Afternoon, lady.

Where you guys going?

East-ish.

East-ish?

You guys don't have any clue

where you're going, do you?

Well, you haven't been here very long, right?

Why's that?

'Cause if anybody here had a clue,

we wouldn't be here in the first place.

True.

I am pretty new.

Actually, I've been hitchhiking

ever since I got here.

How come?

Because I'm looking

for the people in charge.

- People in charge?

- Yeah.

Just where do you think you are?

Some kind of country club

where you can just walk

into the main office?

Tell me, please,

when you were still living,

did you ever try to go looking for God?

No. But I really didn't have

any reason to back then.

And what reason do you have now?

I mean, you know,

are you just sorry you offed?

You, uh, changed your mind?

Because, you know, if that's the case,

and you're just waiting

for visa back home-

- Eugene, Eugene, Eugene.

- What? What?

What's your name?

Mikal.

- What's your name?

- Zia.

- Eugene.

- Nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you.

- Thanks.

So you're trying to leave?

You don't like it here?

Are you joking?

Do you guys like it here?

Who the hell likes being stuck in a place

where you can't even smile?

It's hot as balls. Everybody's an a**hole.

I just want to go home.

- I don't know.

- I like it.

Yeah, better than sleeping

in the car, man.

All right.

I'll go get the cashier.

I like that it has a window right here.

It's nice.

You want to try it out?

What do you mean?

You know what I mean.

I think I'm gonna go

see how Zia's doing.

I wonder if people who die normally

end up with no stars.

I really miss the stars.

You get used to it.

I don't want to get used to it.
