American Beauty (1999) Edit

A commercial for how normal we are...

A girlfriend?

A little fucking discipline.

A simple cream could really lighten things up. You could even put in a skylight.

A substantial portion of the root structure was on our property.

About your product launch that isn't even covered in your press release, and I'd...

Actually, I'd like to fill out an application.

Against who?

Against you.

All I did was party and get laid.

All right. Hi, Shirley!

Almost nothing.

And another thing.

And as soon you've prepared a nutritious yet savory meal that I'm about to eat,

And he would always save the most random, weird things.

And he's an anesthesiologist.

And I can't feel anything but gratitude...

And I just snapped.

And I knew what they were thinking,

And I marvel that you can be so contemptuous of me...

And I only accept cash.

And I think he and your mother have not had sex in a long time.

And I would be a very...

And I... just pop off a few rounds.

And I'm just now waking up.

And I'm sure that some of our advertisers and rival publications...

And if you're careful, you can look right back.

And in a way, I'm dead already.

And it drove my mother nuts.

And it's become more important to you than living.

And it's disgusting.

And Janie.

And Janie.

And my heart...

And part of my job is to live that image.

And removing their ability to make us afraid.

And she used the card numbers and stayed at the St. Regis for, what was it, three months?

And some people might think that entitles me to half of what's yours.

And stop trying to hold on to it.

And that's his lover, Jim.

And the first time I saw my cousin Tony's...

And the new me whacks off when he feels horny...

And the next day at school, some kid made a crack about my haircut,

And the sooner you learn it, the better.

And then Connie Cardullo told me that his parents had to put him in a mental institution.

And then I remember to relax...

And then I'd fuck him until his eyes rolled back in his head.

And then it flows through me like rain,

And then one day, he was just, like, gone.

And then she cut down their tree.

And there was this electricity in the air.

And they're right.

And this bag was just...

And this incredibly benevolent force...

And what do you see?

And who's expendable.

And why does he dress like a Bible salesman?

And yellow leaves from the maple trees...

And you know it.

And you know what?

And you'll be surprised how much a ceiling fan can cut down on your energy costs.

And you'll never be a freak 'cause you're just... too perfect!

And you're boring, and you're totally ordinary,

And your mother seems to prefer that I go through life like a fucking prisoner...

And your personal sales record is...

And... Carolyn.

Angry, insecure, confused.

Any friend of Janie's...

Anytime. Lester?

Are you kidding?

Are you kidding? You just smoked with me last night.

Are you looking to just lose weight, or do you want to have...

Are you okay?

As if being driven to succeed is...

As you know, my business is selling an image,

Asshole.

Asshole.

At all times.

At Boy Scout camp, watching falling stars.

Bad night?

Be right there.

Beauty.

Beauty...

Because everything that was meant to happen, does... eventually.

Because I haven't.

Because it's beautiful.

Because of you and that way that you behave.

Because there's nothing worse in life than being ordinary.

Because you're old enough now to learn the most important lesson in life:

Because, frankly... and I don't think I'm alone here...

Beep me anytime, day or night.

Believe me, it couldn't possibly be any stranger than mine.

Bench presses.

Both my wife and daughter think I'm this gigantic loser.

Brad, for 14 years, I've been a whore for the advertising industry.

Brand new Firebird.

Buddy. I'm so sorry.

But don't worry.

But I did see this homeless woman who froze to death once...

But I know I didn't always feel this...

But I mean, hey, I don't flatter myself...

But I really don't need to have some psycho obsessing about me right now.

But in a way, I'm glad.

But it helps me remember.

But it is my philosophy that in order to be successful,

But it'd be nice if I was anywhere near as important to him as she is.

But it's hard to stay mad when there's so much beauty in the world.

But my dad interferes less in my life when I pretend...

But my dad just has this one thing.

But she's been practicing for weeks.

But surely you must have some sort of training program.

But those fags make me want to puke my fucking guts out.

But to me, he's just... too embarrassing to live.

But you know what?

But you were happy as long as I kept my mouth shut.

But...

But... I did support you when you got your license.

Buying pussy with company money?

Call my secretary. Have her schedule a lunch.

Can I give it to you in the morning? I just took a whiz.

Can you prove that you didn't offer to save my job...

Can't just go around doing whatever you feel like.

Carrying its own head, and then the head goes down on that babe?

Cave in.

Christ, Carolyn.

Christy left for New York this morning.

Colonel Frank Fitts, U.S. Marine Corps.

Colonel Frank Fitts, U.S. Marine Corps.

Come on! Get up! Come on!

Come on. You can tell me. Does he have a big dick?

Coming, Dad.

Considering the information I have about our editorial director...

Constantly reinforcing your new non...

Could he be any more... pathetic?

Cunt!

Cut her a deal, she keeps me in clean piss.

Dad and I had this huge fight.

Dad, leave us alone!

Dad, Mom's waiting for you.

Dad, no, I just...

Dad, you don't really think me and Mr. Burnham...

Damn it, get out! I don't ever want to see you again.

Dancing with me,

Did you ever see that movie where the body is walking around...

Did you steal his keys?

Do you get high?

Do you mind? I'm trying to work out here. Unless... you want to spot me.

Do you want a sip?

Doesn't that make you nervous, just quitting your job like that?

Don't get to tell me what to do...

Don't give a second thought as to who's going to pay the mortgage.

Don't give up on me, Dad.

Don't interrupt me, honey.

Don't you laugh at me!

Don't you mess with me, mister.

Don't.

Don't.

Eighteen. I just do these gigs as a cover.

Entire life behind things...

Ever again.

Ever.

Every guy there would stare at me when I walked in.

Every Thursday night: Red Lobster.

Everyone here is with their spouse or significant other.

Everything's okay.

Except for maybe the bugs. There aren't even any plants out here.

Excuse me?

Excuse me. Don't you live on Robin Hood Trail? The house with the red door?

Fight back, you little pussy!

Fine.

Fine. So don't pay me.

First of all, that one second...

First, I'm patriotic. Second, I love my country. And third, they nailed me.

For 15 minutes.

For every single moment...

For me, it was lying on my back...

For you, Brad, I got five!

For your actions and their solutions...

Forgive me, sir, for speaking so bluntly,

From now on, we're going to alternate our dinner music,

Get out.

Get up!

God. When I was your age, I flipped burgers all summer just to buy an eight track.

Good for her.

Good morning, Carolyn.

Good to see you again.

Gross. I hate it when my mom does that.

Gross. No.

Ha! How does it feel now?

Have you done something different? You look great.

Have you totally forgotten about her?

He doesn't want to go anyway. Let's go.

He hit me.

He is. If he just worked out a little, he'd be hot.

He shoots for Elle on, like, a regular basis.

He totally freaked and decided to send me to military school.

He was short on cash one night, so I let him pay me in trade.

He's a total asshole; he's got this crush on my friend Angela,

He's doing massive psychological damage to me.

He's not a bad man.

He's, like, so confident.

Hello? Hello?

Hello. This is Lester Burnham from Media Monthly magazine.

Her name's Jane.

Hey, guys.

Hey, I really enjoyed that.

Hey, Les. You got a minute?

Hey, that's how things really are.

Hey! Yo, Ricky.

Hey.

Hey. Wait.

Hi, Jane.

Hi, Lester Burnham.

Hi! Patty!

Hi. I'm ready to go. I'll meet you out front.

Hi. My name's Ricky. I just moved next door to you.

Hiring someone to kill your dad.

Honey, do me a favor and say whatever you want to say and spare me the propaganda.

Honey, don't be weird.

Honey... I am so proud of you.

How are you?

How can they be so shameless?

How come these faggots always have to rub it in your face?

How could he not be damaging me?

How dare you speak to me that way in front of her?

How did you get in there?

How much do you want?

How perfect is that? And he's basically there to make it seem they're justified...

How?

How? How?

How's her life?

Hush, Bitsy!

I already do hate my dad.

I am naked.

I am not joyless.

I am really tired of this Lawrence Welk shit.

I am sick and tired of being treated like I don't exist.

I am so sick of people taking their insecurities out on me.

I apologize for the way things look around here.

I can tell.

I can't believe you don't know how beautiful you are.

I didn't lose it. It's not like, "Whoops, where did my job go?"

I didn't say that. It's nobody's fault. It...

I didn't.

I don't believe him.

I don't care.

I don't eat bacon, remember?

I don't even try to touch you, since you made it so abundantly clear...

I don't get scared.

I don't know.

I don't know. It's been a while. Um, how much is an ounce?

I don't like how I look.

I don't mistreat you. I've never hit you.

I don't think my dad would try to come in while someone else is here, but you never know.

I don't think there's anything worse than being ordinary.

I don't think we can be friends any more!

I don't think you'd fit in here.

I don't want to be rude.

I don't want to end up hacked to pieces in a Dumpster somewhere.

I don't.

I feel like I can't take it...

I feel like I've been in a coma for about 20 years...

I feel so stupid.

I figured you guys might be able to give me some pointers. I need to shape up, fast.

I forgot to tell you. She's going to spend the night. Is that okay?

I go to school with your daughter.

I got that homeless woman on videotape.

I guess I could be pretty pissed off about what happened to me,

I guess we should cool it for a while.

I had always heard your entire life flashes...

I had my whole life ahead of me.

I have fast food experience.

I have lost something.

I have other sources of income.

I have over $40,000. I know people in the city that can help us get set up.

I have some tiki torches in the garage.

I have something I have to say to you.

I have to run next door.

I have to take a drug test every six months just to make sure I'm clean.

I hope you don't mind if I play the stereo.

I just love your roses. How do you get them to flourish like this?

I just... thought I should tell you...

I kind of remember this creepy incident where you were filming me last night?

I know you think my dad's harmless, but you're wrong.

I know.

I know.

I like a lot of music.

I love it! Oh! Oh!

I love root beer, don't you?

I mean,

I mean, calm down. Nobody's getting fired yet.

I mean, he didn't even, like, look at me once.

I mean, hello, you've barely even spoken to me for months.

I mean, your firm...

I must be psychotic then! If you don't complain, what is this?

I need a father who's a role model,

I need a father who's a role model, not some horny geek boy...

I need that Super Smiley with cheese ASAP!

I need to remember.

I quit, so you don't have to pay me. Now leave me alone.

I quit! Pass the asparagus.

I really think it'll happen for you.

I refuse to be a victim!

I refuse to be a victim.

I refuse to be a victim. I refuse to be a victim.

I said I think you're sexy.

I see you're smoking pot now. I... I'm so glad.

I see. You think you're the only one who's sexually frustrated.

I should probably go see what Jane's up to.

I should say hi to your dad.

I still like it. If people I don't even know look at me and want to fuck me,

I still want to do it.

I swear to God...

I take it he's got a thing for guns.

I think he's sweet.

I think maybe you forgot your medication today, mental boy.

I think using illegal psychotropic substances...

I think we deserve a little junk food after the workout we had this morning.

I think you just became my personal hero.

I thought you said I was beautiful.

I thought you two had a fight. I haven't seen her around here in a while.

I told you this whole thing about structure and discipline, right?

I traded it in.

I want you to be happy. Would you like Smiley Sauce with that?

I want you to meet somebody. This is Jane.

I want you to stop filming me.

I want you.

I wanted to kill him.

I was hoping you could give me a bath.

I was so stressed out. Ah!

I was thinking about the, uh... I was gonna... The movie we talked about.

I wasn't... better.

I will divorce you so fast, it'll make your head spin.

I will not sit back and watch my only son become a cock sucker!

I will sell this house today.

I will sell this house today.

I will sell this house today. I will sell this house today.

I wish I could tell her that's all going to pass, but I don't want to lie to her.

I wish things would have been better for you.

I would. I would suck your dad's big fat dick,

I would've... killed him...

I wouldn't have the heart to just cut down something if it wasn't partially mine, which, of course, it was.

I... am...

I... I need a urine sample.

I... I want to look good naked.

I'd go to dinner with my parents.

I'd like the Big Barn Burger, Smiley Fries and an orange soda.

I'd love to.

I'd rather you were dead than be a fuckin' faggot!

I'd really like to know, and she'd die before she'd ever tell me about it.

I'll be whatever you want me to be.

I'll bet she's going to resent it, and I'm missing the James Bond marathon on T.N.T.

I'll do that. Thank you.

I'll have a Double Smiley sandwich,

I'll throw you out of this house and never look at you again!

I'm 42 years old. In less than a year, I'll be dead.

I'm calling for Mr. Tamblin, please.

I'm facing a potentially very expensive divorce.

I'm going to get some ice cream.

I'm going to whale on my pecks, and then I'm going to do my back.

I'm going with Jane and her mom.

I'm great.

I'm great.

I'm in complete awe of you.

I'm just... I...

I'm looking for the least possible amount of responsibility.

I'm not a drunk. I don't fuck other women.

I'm not exactly sure what it is,

I'm not going to talk about his dick with you, okay? It's not like that.

I'm not obsessing. I'm just curious.

I'm not paying you to do whatever it is you're doing out here.

I'm not? Well, then, come on, baby. I'm ready.

I'm only trying to help you!

I'm Ricky Fitts. I just moved into the house next to you.

I'm serious, though.

I'm serious. He just pulled down his pants and yanked it out.

I'm so sorry my dad was weird tonight.

I'm sorry I haven't been more available.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry. I must've forgotten.

I'm sorry. What?

I'm still a little weirded out, but I feel better. Thanks.

I'm sure there've been amazing technological advances in the industry,

I'm trying to level with you.

I'm used to guys drooling over me.

I'm very, very dirty.

I've been baby sitting since I was about ten.

I've been too embarrassed to bring her over,

I've been waiting for you.

I've been writing for this magazine for 14 years.

I've got a very important appointment.

I've got almost $3,000.

I've gotta go to the bathroom.

I've wanted you since the first moment I saw you.

If he built up his chest and arms, I would totally fuck him.

If I had to go to New York to live, tonight, would you come with me?

If I let you blow me?

If they hadn't pulled me off.

If you have a problem with the plants, I can always call my landscape architect.

If you want any more, you know where I live.

If you'd ever be willing.

In case you wondered why I...

In firing somebody, because they couldn't just come out and say that, could they?

In front of your eyes the second before you die.

In the world.

Increased strength and flexibility as well?

Is a very positive example to set for our daughter.

Is a... friend of mine.

Is hands down the Rolls Royce of local real estate firms,

Is just going to...

Is she happy?

Is she miserable?

Is that a funeral?

Is that what we smoked last night?

Isn't a second at all.

It means I really have a shot at being a model.

It seems unfair to presume I won't be able to learn.

It started when I was about 12.

It stretches on forever,

It was about you.

It was okay.

It was one of those days...

It'll cost you.

It's 555 0199.

It's a dream come true for any cook.

It's a great thing when you realize you still have...

It's been a long time since anybody asked me that.

It's been six months already.

It's called G 13. It's genetically engineered by the U.S. government.

It's extremely potent, but a completely mellow high. No paranoia.

It's just business.

It's just... a... couch!

It's me.

It's never too late to get it back.

It's not mine.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay.

It's okay. I'll walk. But thanks.

It's that psycho next door.

It's the weirdest thing.

It's very intimidating.

It's, like, official state china of the Third Reich.

It's...

Jane and I had a fight.

Jane left her geometry book in my bag, and she needs it to do her homework.

Jane not home.

Jane, honey, are you trying to look unattractive?

Jane, hurry up.

Jane, shh. What was that noise?

Jane, that's, like, almost a mile.

Jane, what if he worships you?

Jane. No way. He's a total lunatic.

Janie, today I quit my job.

Janie, what happened? We used to be pals.

Janie!

Janie...

Janie's a pretty typical teenager:

Janie's thinking about getting a car, too, soon, aren't you?

Jesus, man, you are shaking.

Jesus, man, you're soaked.

Jesus, what is it with you?

Jesus!

Jesus!

Jim Olmeyer. Two doors down. Welcome to the neighborhood.

Joyless?

Joyless?

Just $1.99 for a limited time only.

Just don't fuck my dad, all right?

Just filled with positive energy, huh?

Just for a second,

Just how unnecessary you consider me to be!

Just laying there on the sidewalk.

Just like I knew guys at school thought about me when they jerked off.

Just look at everything you have!

Just okay?

Just what sort of severance package is management prepared to offer me,

Know what I do when I feel like that?

Last time I saw you, you looked kind of wound up.

Lester Burnham. Thank you!

Lester,

Lester, could you make me a little later, please, because I'm not quite late enough.

Lester, I refuse to live like this!

Lester, this is important. I'm sensing a real distance growing between you and Jane.

Lester, you will not get away with this.

Lester, you're going to spill beer on the couch.

Lester?

Lester. I didn't know you ran.

Let's cut to chase, okay? What are you guys selling?

Let's go.

Let's just all sell our souls and work for Satan 'cause it's more convenient that way.

Let's just say things were a little... hectic around the house.

Like a little kid begging me to play with it,

Like an ocean of time.

Like the time that Mr. Flournoy used the company MasterCard to pay for that hooker,

Like you've never sneaked a peek at him in his underwear? I bet he's got a big dick.

Listen. Just do me a favor. Act happy tonight.

Look at me: jerking off in the shower.

Look at those arms.

Look, I wish that you hadn't witnessed that awful scene tonight,

Look, Mom, I really don't feel like having a Kodak moment here.

Look.

Look. I'm not going to sit here for that shit.

Lucky man.

Makes you wonder what else you can do that you've forgotten about.

Man, I haven't listened to this album in years.

Man, oh man, oh man.

Man, oh man.

Man... you are one twisted fuck.

Maybe you shouldn't, all right? Maybe I really don't want to hear about all that.

Me?

Might like to know about it as well, not to mention... Craig's wife.

Mine won't.

Mine. 1970 Pontiac Firebird,

Mom, do we always have to listen to this elevator music?

Mom, I want you to meet somebody.

Mom, nobody said anything.

Mom... I'm leaving.

My dad thinks I pay for all this with catering jobs.

My dad would kill me if he knew I was in here.

My daughter Jane. Only child.

My entire life is passing before my eyes, and those two have barely broken a sweat.

My heart fills up like a balloon that's about to burst.

My name is Lester Burnham.

My parents are coming tonight.

My parents will try to find me.

Never underestimate the power of denial.

Nice going, Dad.

Nice meeting you, Ricky. Thanks for the thing.

Nice suit.

No, Dad. It was spectacular.

No, I'm glad because, uh...

No, I'm not.

No, I'm serious.

No, no, I understand completely.

No, no. That would just be too honest. So they've asked us...

No, sir. I wanted to show my girlfriend your Nazi plate.

No, you're scared of me.

No.

No.

No.

No.

No. Have you?

No. No, we don't.

No. One of my clients is a locksmith.

No. You never drove it.

Nope.

Nope. I'm just an ordinary guy...

Not at all.

Not like what? Doesn't he have one?

Not really bad, just...

Not some horny geek boy who's going to spray his shorts...

Nothing makes you feel more powerful.

Nothing.

Now I know how you can afford all this equipment.

Now, for your halftime entertainment,

Now, I saw you with him.

Now, listen to me. This is an important business function.

Of being the sole breadwinner now.

Of course I was saving it up for a boob job.

Of course not. She doesn't want us to know how important this is to her.

Of course, I don't know that yet.

Of course, I got kicked out.

Of course.

Of course. He's a really well known photographer.

Of my stupid little life.

Oh, all right. So shoot me. I was whacking off.

Oh, Carolyn! Of course. How are you?

Oh, Christ. Mom.

Oh, could you be a little bit more dramatic, please, huh?

Oh, fuck.

Oh, God!

Oh, great. So now it's my fault?

Oh, gross!

Oh, I I don't need a ride.

Oh, I'm in trouble.

Oh, it's okay. I wouldn't remember me either.

Oh, morning!

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God. What time is it?

Oh, oh, oh! And I want to thank you for putting me under the added pressure...

Oh, Ricky.

Oh, shit. They're home. Quick. Let's go up to my room.

Oh, sure. Times are tight.

Oh, we've met before, actually. This thing last year. Christmas at the Sheraton.

Oh, well, then I guess we'll just have to be bad, won't we?

Oh, what is this? Fuckin' gay pride parade?

Oh, what? You're "Mother of the Year"?

Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Oh, whoa. Well.

Oh, yeah!

Oh, yeah. I go to this little firing range downtown,

Oh!

Oh! Hi.

Oh.

Oh. Hi, Ricky Fitts. I'm Lester Burnham.

Oh. I'm sorry.

Ohh.

Okay, uh, we have to go.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay. Good to meet you.

On the same day that you lose your job!

On what grounds?

One must project an image of success...

One of my clients is a nurse in a pediatrician's office.

Only by taking full responsibility...

Ooh, is that root beer?

Ooh! Ha. Wow.

Or my grandmother's hands and the way her skin...

Or you're going to turn into a real bitch just like your mother!

Our marriage is just for show.

Please drive up to the window. Thank you.

Please let me in.

Probably out fucking that dorky Prince of Real Estate asshole.

Put up a fight, dude. You are such a pushover. "No, I can't, really. Okay."

Re Animator.

Really?

Remember those posters that said...

Ricky, uh...

Ricky! Breakfast!

Ricky?

Right?

Rockwell High's award winning Dancing Spartanettes!

Sedated.

See the way the handle on those pruning shears matches her gardening clogs?

See?

Seemed like paper.

She looked really sad.

She thinks she's in love.

She wasn't always like this. She used to be happy.

She's mad at me because...

She's really happy.

She's someone you use to feel better about yourself.

She's, uh...

Shit.

Shit. I bet he's filming us right now.

Shit. They're still here.

Shut up! Shut up! Shut up!

Shut up! Stop it! You weak... You baby!

Since it technically constitutes fraud.

Smile! You're at Mr. Smiley's!

Smile. You're at Mr. Smiley's.

Smile. You're at Mr. Smiley's. That'll be 4.98, please.

So are you. You've only been in Seventeen once, and you looked fat.

So now that you have a boyfriend, you're, like, above it?

So stop acting like you're goddamn Christy Turlington!

So tell me about being in the hospital.

So what? It's just a couch.

So what's up?

So you and psycho boy are fucking on, like, a regular basis now, right?

So, Janie, how was school?

So, this makes sense.

So, turn out the light when you come back to bed, okay?

So, we finally got new neighbors.

So, yeah, I'm sure you can understand our need to cut corners around here.

So.

Some sort of a character flaw.

Some.

Someone really should just put him out of his misery.

Someone really should just... put him out of his misery.

Sometimes I feel like I'm seeing it all at once and it's too much.

Sometimes there's so much...

Sorry. Hi. Lester Burnham. I live next door. We haven't met.

Spec tacular.

Stop it. Stop it.

Strange.

Sure.

Take care of Dad.

Thank you.

That can't be real.

That doesn't so closely resemble hell."

That house would never have sat on the market for six months.

That I'm even in the same league as you.

That lined our street.

That wanted me to know that there was no reason to be afraid...

That was the sound of you being a huge, disgusting pig.

That way management can assess who's valuable...

That you don't know, Mr. Smarty Man.

That'll be 7.98. Please drive up to the window. Thank you.

That's disgusting.

That's my wife, Carolyn.

That's not an accident.

That's not going to happen.

That's okay.

That's right. I was choking the bishop, chafing the carrot.

That's somebody who's going to get fired because Craig has to pay women to fuck him!

That's the day I realized that there was this...

That's the whole thing, Dad.

That's when my dad put me in the hospital.

That's why we're having everyone...

That's... what...

The "royal treatment," so to speak.

The ability to surprise yourself.

The ad said this pool was lagoon like. There's nothing lagoon like about it.

The car I've always wanted, and now I have it.

The day you die.

The only way I could save myself now is if I start firebombing.

The people who used to live there fed these stray cats, so they were always around,

The whole house...

Their sycamore? Come on.

Then I told my boss to go fuck himself, and then I blackmailed him for almost $60,000.

There happens to be a lot about me...

There is no decision. You just write the damn thing.

There's a whole subculture of people who collect this Nazi shit.

There's plenty of joy in my life.

They don't feel that's anything to be ashamed of.

They're such assholes. Why can't they just have their own lives?

They're trying to, you know, take an active interest in me.

They've hired this efficiency expert,

Things have changed since 1973.

This country is going straight to hell.

This hasn't been a marriage for years,

This is a $4,000 sofa,

This is a cement hole.

This is all I ever smoke.

This is for your own good, boy.

This is just stuff,

This is my first time.

This is my friend, Angela Hayes.

This is my life.

This is my neighborhood.

This is my street.

This is not a marriage.

This is not just a couch.

This is Ricky Fitts.

This is the secret to "Me Centered Living."

This is totally decent, and it's 300.

This is where my dad hides out.

This is your one chance to save your job.

This isn't life!

This kind of behavior is something to be proud of.

This living room is very dramatic.

This really doesn't concern you.

This really friendly guy named Brad...

This shit is top of the line.

This will be the high point of my day. It's all downhill from here.

To be an upstanding young citizen with a respectable job.

To flash the traffic helicopters?

To ourselves.

Too focused on my career.

Tsk. God.

Turn it over.

Uh oh. Mom's mad.

Uh, I don't know.

Uh, no, but thank you.

Uh, whose car is that out front?
