- Corky, why don't you
- tell us your story.
- 3
- 00:01:04,120 --> 00:01:06,988
- Well, as you know,
- my story is not a
- 4
- 00:01:06,990 --> 00:01:09,324
- "really tragic" story,
- 5
- 00:01:09,326 --> 00:01:10,759
- unless...
- 6
- 00:01:10,761 --> 00:01:12,696
- boredom is tragic.
- 7
- 00:01:13,797 --> 00:01:15,330
- I, um...
- 8
- 00:01:15,332 --> 00:01:16,831
- you know, I was married.
- 9
- 00:01:16,833 --> 00:01:21,069
- I had every comfort
- you could ask for.
- 10
- 00:01:21,071 --> 00:01:24,375
- I thought that's what was gonna
- make my life meaningful.
- 11
- 00:01:25,909 --> 00:01:29,112
- I just stopped wanting
- to go to parties, and...
- 12
- 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:33,350
- play tennis...
- 13
- 00:01:35,351 --> 00:01:37,351
- with my girlfriends.
- 14
- 00:01:37,353 --> 00:01:38,986
- For the record,
- I'd like to say
- 15
- 00:01:38,988 --> 00:01:40,688
- that I think
- I'd rather iron sheets
- 16
- 00:01:40,690 --> 00:01:42,122
- than play tennis any day.
- 17
- 00:01:42,124 --> 00:01:46,727
- When I was,
- uh, about 11 years old,
- 18
- 00:01:46,729 --> 00:01:50,065
- I lived with my grandmother
- near the Black Forest, and...
- 19
- 00:01:50,067 --> 00:01:53,367
- in a little house,
- second floor...
- 20
- 00:01:53,369 --> 00:01:55,869
- and I had a cat.
- 21
- 00:01:55,871 --> 00:01:58,072
- Her name was Fifi.
- 22
- 00:01:58,074 --> 00:02:01,810
- Well, I did get an Oregon
- Cultural Heritage Award.
- 23
- 00:02:01,812 --> 00:02:04,111
- Ah, these awards
- are not important.
- 24
- 00:02:04,113 --> 00:02:06,146
- - Please.
- - Okay.
- 25
- 00:02:06,148 --> 00:02:08,149
- I got a prescription
- for Valium,
- 26
- 00:02:08,151 --> 00:02:11,485
- which at least
- made the days go...
- 27
- 00:02:11,487 --> 00:02:13,121
- by quicker.
- 28
- 00:02:13,123 --> 00:02:15,355
- Yeah, okay,
- there's this rock
- 29
- 00:02:15,357 --> 00:02:18,727
- that was about this big
- that had these grooves in it,
- 30
- 00:02:18,729 --> 00:02:21,361
- like, uh, you know,
- little bumps, and I said,
- 31
- 00:02:21,363 --> 00:02:24,098
- "Well, Aunt Janey,
- what is this?"
- 32
- 00:02:24,100 --> 00:02:26,101
- And she said, "What?
- You don't know what that is?"
- 33
- 00:02:26,103 --> 00:02:27,968
- And I was like, "No."
- 34
- 00:02:27,970 --> 00:02:29,471
- And she's like,
- "Well, that's my titty rock."
- 35
- 00:02:29,473 --> 00:02:31,506
- And I was like,
- "Your titty rock?"
- 36
- 00:02:31,508 --> 00:02:33,942
- She was like, "Yeah, my titty rock."
- 37
- 00:02:33,944 --> 00:02:35,175
- "That's for when
- you get in fights with girls.
- 38
- 00:02:35,177 --> 00:02:36,978
- You punch 'em
- in the tit with it."
- 39
- 00:02:36,980 --> 00:02:38,780
- Not joking, not kidding.
- 40
- 00:02:38,782 --> 00:02:41,448
- Then one day, I just, like,
- 41
- 00:02:41,450 --> 00:02:45,455
- took off all my clothes
- and walked down the street.
- 42
- 00:02:47,022 --> 00:02:49,190
- And...
- 43
- 00:02:49,192 --> 00:02:50,924
- the mailman...
- 44
- 00:02:50,926 --> 00:02:52,160
- found me and...
- 45
- 00:02:52,162 --> 00:02:53,995
- he brought me home and
- 46
- 00:02:53,997 --> 00:02:56,464
- called my husband,
- like I was a child.
- 47
- 00:02:56,466 --> 00:02:59,900
- And I, you know, I'm still
- wearing my wedding ring, but...
- 48
- 00:02:59,902 --> 00:03:01,536
- I'm...
- 49
- 00:03:01,538 --> 00:03:03,103
- divorced now, and I'm...
- 50
- 00:03:03,105 --> 00:03:04,938
- I'm much happier.
- 51
- 00:03:04,940 --> 00:03:07,744
- Maybe life's actually
- not supposed to be...
- 52
- 00:03:08,844 --> 00:03:11,181
- as meaningful
- as we think it is.
- 53
- 00:03:12,516 --> 00:03:14,181
- - Thanks, Corky.
- - Thanks, Corky.
- 54
- 00:03:14,183 --> 00:03:15,885
- Mm.
- 55
- 00:04:50,914 --> 00:04:52,614
- Ladies and gentlemen,
- 56
- 00:04:52,616 --> 00:04:56,150
- please welcome to the stage
- Portland's celebrity cartoonist
- 57
- 00:04:56,152 --> 00:04:58,518
- John Callahan!
- 58
- 00:05:14,270 --> 00:05:16,537
- Hi. My name is John,
- and I'm an alcoholic.
- 59
- 00:05:16,539 --> 00:05:19,140
- Hi, John.
- 60
- 00:05:19,142 --> 00:05:21,042
- It's good to be here.
- 61
- 00:05:21,044 --> 00:05:23,176
- The last day that I walked,
- 62
- 00:05:23,178 --> 00:05:26,246
- I... I woke up
- without a hangover.
- 63
- 00:05:31,186 --> 00:05:34,621
- The last day I walked,
- I woke up without a hangover.
- 64
- 00:05:34,623 --> 00:05:37,558
- I was still loaded
- from drinking the night before.
- 65
- 00:06:00,717 --> 00:06:04,318
- I knew I had an hour or so
- of grace before the...
- 66
- 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:06,621
- nervousness...
- 67
- 00:06:08,024 --> 00:06:10,127
- of withdrawal symptoms set in.
- 68
- 00:06:23,238 --> 00:06:26,207
- What if I lost control,
- flipped out?
- 69
- 00:06:27,376 --> 00:06:28,978
- Fuck.
- 70
- 00:06:35,185 --> 00:06:37,652
- The closest store
- where I could buy booze
- 71
- 00:06:37,654 --> 00:06:40,324
- was near a major intersection.
- 72
- 00:06:52,001 --> 00:06:54,068
- - How are you?
- - Staying cool?
- 73
- 00:06:54,070 --> 00:06:55,436
- - It's hot out there, isn't it?
- - Yeah.
- 74
- 00:06:55,438 --> 00:06:57,337
- - Good beach weather.
- - Yeah. Whew.
- 75
- 00:06:57,339 --> 00:06:59,207
- I tried to talk to the
- 76
- 00:06:59,209 --> 00:07:02,143
- owner of the store
- and act real casual.
- 77
- 00:07:02,145 --> 00:07:03,210
- I work for Alvarado
- house painter.
- 78
- 00:07:03,212 --> 00:07:05,046
- - Oh.
- - We got tons of work.
- 79
- 00:07:05,048 --> 00:07:08,248
- Oh, you know, like I had
- everything under control.
- akumenang.com
- 80
- 00:07:08,250 --> 00:07:10,051
- But...
- 81
- 00:07:10,053 --> 00:07:13,121
- they'd have to be blind
- not to see my hand shaking.
- 82
- 00:07:13,123 --> 00:07:14,789
- Um...
- 83
- 00:07:14,791 --> 00:07:18,325
- Yeah, I guess I'll just
- take that, uh, Tres Abuelos.
- 84
- 00:07:18,327 --> 00:07:20,097
- Yeah, tequila.
- 85
- 00:08:07,277 --> 00:08:08,779
- Hey, how's it going?
- 86
- 00:08:09,779 --> 00:08:11,412
- Wow, pretty groovy day, huh?
- 87
- 00:08:11,414 --> 00:08:13,181
- Oh, yeah.
- 88
- 00:08:13,183 --> 00:08:15,316
- - Surf's coming up.
- - Yeah.
- 89
- 00:08:15,318 --> 00:08:16,717
- Sky gets any bluer,
- 90
- 00:08:16,719 --> 00:08:18,518
- it'll be singing
- a Muddy Waters tune.
- 91
- 00:08:18,520 --> 00:08:20,390
- Sorry?
- 92
- 00:08:21,724 --> 00:08:23,323
- I'm a songwriter.
- 93
- 00:08:23,325 --> 00:08:26,426
- I listen to a lot
- of different music.
- 94
- 00:08:26,428 --> 00:08:28,328
- - Um...
- - Want a drink?
- 95
- 00:08:28,330 --> 00:08:30,097
- I'm... I'm good.
- 96
- 00:08:30,099 --> 00:08:32,232
- Um, I'll see you around
- sometime, okay?
- 97
- 00:08:32,234 --> 00:08:33,404
- Oh. All right.
- 98
- 00:08:40,275 --> 00:08:42,442
- You've got
- a problem, Callahan.
- 99
- 00:08:45,314 --> 00:08:47,447
- I know three things
- about my real mother:
- 100
- 00:08:47,449 --> 00:08:50,350
- she was Irish-American,
- she had red hair,
- 101
- 00:08:50,352 --> 00:08:52,119
- she was a school teacher.
- 102
- 00:08:52,121 --> 00:08:53,790
- Oh, yeah.
- 103
- 00:08:55,357 --> 00:08:57,358
- And she didn't want me.
- 104
- 00:08:57,360 --> 00:08:58,792
- Okay.
- 105
- 00:08:58,794 --> 00:09:01,295
- Four things.
- 106
- 00:09:01,297 --> 00:09:04,532
- The way with illegitimate
- Catholic babies in those days
- 107
- 00:09:04,534 --> 00:09:07,268
- was to remove them
- from the mother of birth...
- 108
- 00:09:07,270 --> 00:09:09,803
- ...and put them in the care
- of the nuns for six months
- 109
- 00:09:09,805 --> 00:09:12,508
- in case the natural mother
- should change her mind.
- 110
- 00:09:14,144 --> 00:09:16,377
- Was my mother a queen?
- 111
- 00:09:16,379 --> 00:09:18,879
- Was she a whore?
- 112
- 00:09:18,881 --> 00:09:20,848
- Could I locate her
- and surprise her,
- 113
- 00:09:20,850 --> 00:09:22,282
- say, at a bank teller's window?
- 114
- 00:09:22,284 --> 00:09:24,518
- "Yeah, I'd like
- to cash this check, Mom."
- 115
- 00:09:56,419 --> 00:09:58,554
- Oh, fuck. Help!
- 116
- 00:10:02,292 --> 00:10:04,425
- - Oh, hey.
- - Dude, you wiped out.
- 117
- 00:10:04,427 --> 00:10:06,393
- - Nice.
- - Can you help me up?
- 118
- 00:10:06,395 --> 00:10:08,229
- - Yeah, all right.
- - Easy, though.
- 119
- 00:10:08,231 --> 00:10:09,964
- - Okay.
- - All right, now, nice and easy.
- 120
- 00:10:09,966 --> 00:10:11,364
- Don't try and show off.
- 121
- 00:10:11,366 --> 00:10:12,432
- Yeah! Oh!
- 122
- 00:10:12,434 --> 00:10:13,633
- Here, come around, turn around.
- 123
- 00:10:13,635 --> 00:10:14,634
- - Here we go.
- - All right.
- 124
- 00:10:14,636 --> 00:10:16,269
- - Okay.
- - Watch it.
- 125
- 00:10:16,271 --> 00:10:18,372
- - Careful, careful.
- - There we go. There we go.
- 126
- 00:10:18,374 --> 00:10:20,273
- Yeah, lift him up.
- 127
- 00:10:20,275 --> 00:10:22,276
- - You guys smell that?
- - Oh, what's that smell?
- 128
- 00:10:22,278 --> 00:10:24,311
- - Oh, that-that reeks, man.
- - Oh.
- 129
- 00:10:24,313 --> 00:10:26,379
- Yeah, pull up that
- right leg right there.
- 130
- 00:10:26,381 --> 00:10:27,949
- - Right here?
- - Yeah.
- 131
- 00:10:27,951 --> 00:10:29,450
- - You got it, dude.
- - Yeah.
- 132
- 00:10:29,452 --> 00:10:30,951
- Yeah, you lift up
- that right pant leg there.
- 133
- 00:10:30,953 --> 00:10:32,652
- Be brave.
- 134
- 00:10:32,654 --> 00:10:35,956
- Yeah, just attach that
- into the white thing.
- 135
- 00:10:35,958 --> 00:10:37,291
- All right.
- 136
- 00:10:37,293 --> 00:10:39,326
- - Thank you.
- - You draw this?
- 137
- 00:10:39,328 --> 00:10:40,860
- - Yeah.
- - Whoa.
- 138
- 00:10:40,862 --> 00:10:42,330
- - You get it?
- - Awesome. Dude.
- 139
- 00:10:42,332 --> 00:10:43,630
- - Yeah.
- - Yeah.
- 140
- 00:10:45,000 --> 00:10:46,566
- Don't worry, boys.
- 141
- 00:10:46,568 --> 00:10:48,469
- He won't get far on foot.
- 142
- 00:10:48,471 --> 00:10:50,003
- It's a wheelchair.
- 143
- 00:10:50,005 --> 00:10:51,605
- He can't get far
- because he's injured, right?
- 144
- 00:10:51,607 --> 00:10:53,306
- - That's right. Yeah.
- - Okay, all right!
- 145
- 00:10:53,308 --> 00:10:54,709
- Yeah, well, you know,
- 146
- 00:10:54,711 --> 00:10:56,509
- my grandmom's
- in a wheelchair, so...
- 147
- 00:10:56,511 --> 00:10:57,711
- - Oh, yeah?
- - Yeah.
- 148
- 00:10:57,713 --> 00:10:59,312
- - Sorry about that.
- - Yeah.
- 149
- 00:10:59,314 --> 00:11:01,315
- I draw these for a living,
- but, you know,
- 150
- 00:11:01,317 --> 00:11:02,383
- people get mad at me
- 'cause of the subject matter.
- 151
- 00:11:02,385 --> 00:11:04,351
- - Not us.
- - That's ridiculous.
- 152
- 00:11:04,353 --> 00:11:05,952
- - These are awesome.
- - All right. Cool.
- 153
- 00:11:05,954 --> 00:11:07,455
- - Is that a car crash?
- - Yeah.
- 154
- 00:11:07,457 --> 00:11:09,023
- - What is that?
- - There's, like, a dead guy
- 155
- 00:11:09,025 --> 00:11:10,358
- - under the car.
- - Are those all booze and stuff?
- 156
- 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:11,625
- Whoa.
- 157
- 00:11:11,627 --> 00:11:13,027
- There's a five-dollar bill
- 158
- 00:11:13,029 --> 00:11:14,262
- in my left shirt pocket.
- 159
- 00:11:14,264 --> 00:11:16,265
- Go get me a short case.
- 160
- 00:11:34,049 --> 00:11:37,384
- Oh, they could do it
- and they'll do it over there!
- 161
- 00:11:45,028 --> 00:11:46,359
- Hey, Snickers.
- 162
- 00:11:46,361 --> 00:11:48,329
- How was your day?
- 163
- 00:11:48,331 --> 00:11:50,534
- Did you find any time
- to get in some exercise?
- 164
- 00:11:58,374 --> 00:12:00,675
- You fucking asshole!
- 165
- 00:12:00,677 --> 00:12:02,310
- You're fucking late!
- 166
- 00:12:02,312 --> 00:12:03,944
- I've been sitting here
- all goddamn day!
- 167
- 00:12:03,946 --> 00:12:05,680
- It's been fucking wet!
- 168
- 00:12:05,682 --> 00:12:08,548
- I got shit all over my pants
- and there's no fucking drinks!
- 169
- 00:12:08,550 --> 00:12:10,518
- You didn't leave me
- a goddamn fucking drink!
- 170
- 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:11,951
- It's been three fucking hours!
- 171
- 00:12:11,953 --> 00:12:13,687
- What do you
- actually fucking do?
- 172
- 00:12:13,689 --> 00:12:17,023
- I signed up to be
- your attendant, not your slave.
- 173
- 00:12:17,025 --> 00:12:20,527
- Bossing me around, you fucking
- don't even give me five seconds
- 174
- 00:12:20,529 --> 00:12:22,529
- before you're telling me
- what to do.
- 175
- 00:12:22,531 --> 00:12:25,332
- I told you I fucking hate it
- when you give me orders.
- 176
- 00:12:25,334 --> 00:12:27,335
- I'm gonna get to it
- when I feel like it, John.
- 177
- 00:12:27,337 --> 00:12:28,969
- All right?
- How would you like it
- 178
- 00:12:28,971 --> 00:12:31,041
- if I started pushing
- you around all day?
- 179
- 00:12:34,744 --> 00:12:36,476
- I'll give you a bath
- in a minute.
- 180
- 00:12:36,478 --> 00:12:39,013
- I need to wind down.
- Here you go.
- 181
- 00:12:39,015 --> 00:12:41,385
- Celebrate your independence.
- 182
- 00:12:54,364 --> 00:12:56,364
- President Carter's standing
- 183
- 00:12:56,366 --> 00:13:00,033
- in our NBC News Associated
- Press poll has declined again.
- 184
- 00:13:00,035 --> 00:13:03,403
- Not much, but the decline
- has been steady.
- 185
- 00:13:03,405 --> 00:13:05,705
- This is one of the findings
- in our latest telephone sample
- 186
- 00:13:05,707 --> 00:13:08,508
- of the opinions
- of about 1,600 people
- 187
- 00:13:08,510 --> 00:13:10,009
- around the country last week.
- 188
- 00:13:27,396 --> 00:13:31,632
- I drink,
- I hit rock bottom.
- 189
- 00:13:31,634 --> 00:13:35,034
- And I'd drink more
- and hit rock bottom again.
- 190
- 00:13:35,036 --> 00:13:38,873
- I had to admit to myself that
- I was powerless over alcohol.
- 191
- 00:13:38,875 --> 00:13:41,441
- I was searching
- for something else.
- 192
- 00:13:41,443 --> 00:13:43,779
- You sure you want to go
- to an A.A. meeting, John?
- 193
- 00:13:45,180 --> 00:13:47,350
- I've never really believed
- in their whole thing.
- 194
- 00:14:05,802 --> 00:14:07,801
- Oh, I'm sorry,
- 195
- 00:14:07,803 --> 00:14:10,807
- but, uh, we can't have anybody
- quite this grotesque in here.
- 196
- 00:14:12,507 --> 00:14:14,542
- For the love of God, I'm Reba.
- 197
- 00:14:14,544 --> 00:14:16,676
- Oh, hi. I'm John.
- 198
- 00:14:16,678 --> 00:14:19,382
- Welcome to the Alano Club.
- 199
- 00:14:20,817 --> 00:14:22,715
- I thought you were serious.
- 200
- 00:14:22,717 --> 00:14:24,518
- No dogs, no quads.
- 201
- 00:14:24,520 --> 00:14:26,456
- No. Come on, now.
- 202
- 00:14:35,497 --> 00:14:37,163
- God, grant me the serenity...
- 203
- 00:14:37,165 --> 00:14:40,768
- To accept the things
- I cannot change,
- 204
- 00:14:40,770 --> 00:14:43,737
- the courage to change
- the things I can,
- 205
- 00:14:43,739 --> 00:14:45,809
- and the wisdom
- to know the difference.
- 206
- 00:14:47,143 --> 00:14:49,413
- Anyone under 90 days?
- 207
- 00:14:51,481 --> 00:14:54,481
- Hi, I'm Felix,
- and I'm an alcoholic.
- 208
- 00:14:54,483 --> 00:14:56,683
- Hi, Felix.
- 209
- 00:14:56,685 --> 00:14:58,585
- - Hi, guys. Uh...
- - Welcome.
- 210
- 00:14:58,587 --> 00:15:00,220
- This is day 14.
- 211
- 00:15:00,222 --> 00:15:01,891
- Good job.
- 212
- 00:15:06,629 --> 00:15:08,696
- Uh, hi. I'm Joseph.
- 213
- 00:15:08,698 --> 00:15:09,830
- I'm an alcoholic.
- 214
- 00:15:09,832 --> 00:15:11,865
- Hi, Joseph.
- 215
- 00:15:11,867 --> 00:15:13,767
- Today, I have 56 days.
- 216
- 00:15:13,769 --> 00:15:16,539
- Awesome.
- 217
- 00:15:18,540 --> 00:15:20,773
- It's tough, 'cause,
- you know, out there,
- 218
- 00:15:20,775 --> 00:15:22,542
- I feel like people want to hear
- 219
- 00:15:22,544 --> 00:15:24,744
- how many years
- you've been sober.
- 220
- 00:15:24,746 --> 00:15:26,913
- But, uh, you know, coming here,
- 221
- 00:15:26,915 --> 00:15:30,783
- I'm reminded how special it is
- that I'm where I'm at, so...
- 222
- 00:15:30,785 --> 00:15:33,753
- I remember a time when I didn't
- think 30 days was possible,
- 223
- 00:15:33,755 --> 00:15:37,191
- but here I am, so... thank you.
- 224
- 00:15:42,631 --> 00:15:44,697
- Anyone else want to speak?
- 225
- 00:15:44,699 --> 00:15:46,300
- My name's John Callahan,
- 226
- 00:15:46,302 --> 00:15:47,968
- and I don't know
- who my real mother is,
- 227
- 00:15:47,970 --> 00:15:50,474
- and I was paralyzed
- in a car accident.
- 228
- 00:15:52,542 --> 00:15:54,642
- And...
- 229
- 00:15:54,644 --> 00:15:57,545
- and I'm an alcoholic.
- 230
- 00:15:57,547 --> 00:15:59,812
- Hi, John.
- 231
- 00:15:59,814 --> 00:16:01,882
- Good to know you,
- John Callahan,
- 232
- 00:16:01,884 --> 00:16:04,284
- who is an alcoholic.
- 233
- 00:16:04,286 --> 00:16:07,654
- You're in the right place,
- I think.
- 234
- 00:16:07,656 --> 00:16:09,590
- I'm Donnie,
- and I'm an alcoholic.
- 235
- 00:16:09,592 --> 00:16:11,558
- Hi, Donnie.
- 236
- 00:16:11,560 --> 00:16:13,192
- Hi.
- 237
- 00:16:13,194 --> 00:16:16,297
- And when I first entered
- the program,
- 238
- 00:16:16,299 --> 00:16:19,832
- I had two pairs of pants,
- 239
- 00:16:19,834 --> 00:16:22,235
- one with shit in them
- and one without.
- 240
- 00:16:24,307 --> 00:16:27,974
- And I didn't care which one
- of them I was wearing.
- 241
- 00:16:30,011 --> 00:16:34,248
- Today, I celebrate mediocrity.
- 242
- 00:16:34,250 --> 00:16:38,051
- I woke up and I put on
- a non-shitty pair of pants.
- 243
- 00:16:38,053 --> 00:16:42,022
- And I walked to get a cup of coffee,
- 244
- 00:16:42,024 --> 00:16:44,291
- and it was fucking delicious.
- 245
- 00:16:44,293 --> 00:16:47,628
- And my day's been pretty good,
- 246
- 00:16:47,630 --> 00:16:50,630
- until I came in here
- and saw all of you.
- 247
- 00:16:53,336 --> 00:16:55,702
- Continue your story, John.
- 248
- 00:16:55,704 --> 00:16:57,971
- Oh, right.
- 249
- 00:16:57,973 --> 00:17:00,373
- The story. Um...
- 250
- 00:17:00,375 --> 00:17:03,813
- Well, I got back to
- the house around 4:00,
- 251
- 00:17:05,014 --> 00:17:09,049
- and saw Jesus Alvarado, my...
- 252
- 00:17:09,051 --> 00:17:10,854
- employer.
- 253
- 00:17:16,691 --> 00:17:19,326
- Shit.
- 254
- 00:17:19,328 --> 00:17:21,031
- John, what's up?
- 255
- 00:17:23,832 --> 00:17:26,065
- I want you to meet Bill.
- 256
- 00:17:26,067 --> 00:17:27,734
- - Hey.
- - Hey.
- 257
- 00:17:27,736 --> 00:17:32,039
- My small-town experience was...
- 258
- 00:17:32,041 --> 00:17:35,309
- limited concerning disability.
- 259
- 00:17:35,311 --> 00:17:37,011
- - How you doing? John.
- - Good, good.
- 260
- 00:17:37,013 --> 00:17:39,816
- Jesus wanted me
- to look at the guy's pen.
- 261
- 00:17:41,883 --> 00:17:43,018
- Check that out.
- 262
- 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:46,022
- Got to turn it upside down.
- 263
- 00:17:50,426 --> 00:17:53,327
- Uh, I went inside for a drink.
- 264
- 00:17:54,964 --> 00:17:57,363
- I'm coming back for events.
- 265
- 00:17:57,365 --> 00:17:59,332
- - Oh, my God, I've lost it.
- - Ah! Yes!
- 266
- 00:17:59,334 --> 00:18:00,967
- - What's going on?
- - I've lost the touch.
- 267
- 00:18:00,969 --> 00:18:02,069
- - My shoe!
- - Hi, John.
- 268
- 00:18:02,071 --> 00:18:04,103
- - This is Bonnie.
- - Oh, hi.
- 269
- 00:18:04,105 --> 00:18:05,673
- I hear you're from,
- um, Oregon.
- 270
- 00:18:05,675 --> 00:18:06,974
- That's right.
- 271
- 00:18:06,976 --> 00:18:08,742
- What do you guys
- do up there for fun?
- 272
- 00:18:08,744 --> 00:18:10,343
- Well, there's not a lot to do
- in Oregon, you know?
- 273
- 00:18:10,345 --> 00:18:12,079
- So a certain percentage of
- the population drives down here
- 274
- 00:18:12,081 --> 00:18:13,946
- to Long Beach to look for jobs.
- 275
- 00:18:13,948 --> 00:18:16,449
- We are going to a party
- tonight, if you want to come.
- 276
- 00:18:16,451 --> 00:18:17,451
- Oh, really?
- 277
- 00:18:17,453 --> 00:18:18,952
- - Uh-huh.
- - Yeah.
- 278
- 00:18:18,954 --> 00:18:20,387
- - Well...
- - Want to drive us there?
- 279
- 00:18:20,389 --> 00:18:22,324
- - I mean, I... Ooh.
- - Oh.
- 280
- 00:18:25,761 --> 00:18:26,726
- Oh.
- 281
- 00:18:26,728 --> 00:18:28,462
- We're...
- 282
- 00:18:28,464 --> 00:18:30,930
- We're getting
- in trouble tonight.
- 283
- 00:18:30,932 --> 00:18:32,398
- Am I happy?
- 284
- 00:18:32,400 --> 00:18:34,767
- No. So...
- 285
- 00:18:34,769 --> 00:18:36,770
- Divorced? Yeah.
- 286
- 00:18:36,772 --> 00:18:38,138
- I'm seeing a couple guys now.
- 287
- 00:18:38,140 --> 00:18:40,773
- I've been going to therapy.
- Have you ever gone?
- 288
- 00:18:40,775 --> 00:18:43,409
- It'd be so good for you.
- 289
- 00:18:43,411 --> 00:18:44,744
- Just gotten off meat.
- 290
- 00:18:44,746 --> 00:18:46,080
- Been kicking dairy.
- 291
- 00:18:46,082 --> 00:18:49,015
- I'm gonna do life
- without eggs now.
- 292
- 00:18:49,017 --> 00:18:52,820
- Hey, um, I just need to use
- the bathroom really quick.
- 293
- 00:18:52,822 --> 00:18:55,121
- - Will you... will you be here?
- - Uh, yeah. Okay.
- 294
- 00:19:17,479 --> 00:19:20,813
- Hey, Terry, where's that girl
- I was just talking to?
- 295
- 00:19:20,815 --> 00:19:23,082
- - Um, the redhead girl?
- - Yeah.
- 296
- 00:19:23,084 --> 00:19:24,984
- I think she just left
- with some friends.
- 297
- 00:19:24,986 --> 00:19:26,753
- - She left the party?
- - Mm-hmm.
- 298
- 00:19:26,755 --> 00:19:28,755
- Well, good for her.
- 299
- 00:19:28,757 --> 00:19:30,757
- - You guys are still here.
- - She got places to be.
- 300
- 00:19:30,759 --> 00:19:32,059
- - You're stuck with us.
- - Yeah.
- 301
- 00:19:32,061 --> 00:19:35,495
- - Nah.
- - Far fucking out. Dexter.
- 302
- 00:19:35,497 --> 00:19:38,398
- I'm Dexter.
- Hey. I'm Dexter.
- 303
- 00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:40,134
- John.
- 304
- 00:19:40,136 --> 00:19:41,400
- - John.
- - Yeah.
- 305
- 00:19:41,402 --> 00:19:43,137
- How 'bout that girl?
- 306
- 00:19:43,139 --> 00:19:46,005
- Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho.
- 307
- 00:19:46,007 --> 00:19:47,107
- She left.
- 308
- 00:19:47,109 --> 00:19:50,077
- - She was digging you, man.
- - Yeah.
- 309
- 00:19:50,079 --> 00:19:52,079
- Yeah. Take you home,
- 310
- 00:19:52,081 --> 00:19:55,983
- have a little sophisticated
- L.A. sex.
- 311
- 00:19:55,985 --> 00:19:58,217
- No, all she wanted to do
- was talk about her colon.
- 312
- 00:19:58,219 --> 00:20:02,523
- That's what all people in L.A.
- talk about, their colons.
- 313
- 00:20:02,525 --> 00:20:04,858
- And that's 'cause
- they're all assholes.
- 314
- 00:20:04,860 --> 00:20:07,226
- Yes. Where are you from?
- 315
- 00:20:07,228 --> 00:20:11,130
- Ah, shit.
- Turn that shit off, man!
- 316
- 00:20:11,132 --> 00:20:12,099
- - Making me sick!
- - What are you talking about?
- 317
- 00:20:12,101 --> 00:20:14,100
- - Too much Dylan!
- - Too much Dylan?
- 318
- 00:20:14,102 --> 00:20:16,203
- - You don't know what you're talking about.
- - Oh, the answer,
- 319
- 00:20:16,205 --> 00:20:17,571
- - my friend, is blowin' in the wind.
- - He's a poet, man!
- 320
- 00:20:17,573 --> 00:20:20,174
- The answer, my friend,
- is getting blown
- 321
- 00:20:20,176 --> 00:20:22,208
- - In the wind
- - You sound like an idiot.
- 322
- 00:20:22,210 --> 00:20:24,878
- - What are you...
- - The answer's getting blown
- 323
- 00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:26,946
- In the wind.
- 324
- 00:20:26,948 --> 00:20:28,182
- Guy's getting blown,
- 325
- 00:20:28,184 --> 00:20:30,149
- and he's whining about it!
- 326
- 00:20:30,151 --> 00:20:32,285
- He's not talking about
- getting blown.
- 327
- 00:20:32,287 --> 00:20:36,523
- - Getting blown in the wind, you fucking moron!
- - I know!
- 328
- 00:20:36,525 --> 00:20:38,826
- I was fucking with you!
- 329
- 00:20:41,897 --> 00:20:43,030
- You think I don't know?
- 330
- 00:20:43,032 --> 00:20:44,831
- Johnny, Johnny,
- 331
- 00:20:44,833 --> 00:20:46,567
- listen to me, listen to me.
- 332
- 00:20:46,569 --> 00:20:48,534
- Seriously.
- 333
- 00:20:48,536 --> 00:20:51,871
- I know a party that's ten times
- better than this shit-bag.
- 334
- 00:20:51,873 --> 00:20:55,274
- Let's go there now.
- There's ten times hotter babes.
- 335
- 00:20:55,276 --> 00:20:59,279
- We plow the Milagro Beanfield.
- 336
- 00:21:01,483 --> 00:21:03,583
- Huh? You and me.
- 337
- 00:21:03,585 --> 00:21:04,584
- Come on.
- 338
- 00:21:04,586 --> 00:21:07,087
- What a promise.
- 339
- 00:21:08,489 --> 00:21:12,091
- I guess we thought
- that "the babes"
- 340
- 00:21:12,093 --> 00:21:15,628
- were fairer
- on the other side of town.
- 341
- 00:21:15,630 --> 00:21:18,564
- So I left Terry
- and her friends,
- 342
- 00:21:18,566 --> 00:21:22,202
- and we headed
- to the next party.
- 343
- 00:21:22,204 --> 00:21:26,205
- But not before we got
- even more wasted.
- 344
- 00:21:26,207 --> 00:21:28,274
- Hey. Clink it.
- 345
- 00:21:31,045 --> 00:21:33,280
- Keep 'em comin', bro!
- 346
- 00:21:34,582 --> 00:21:36,052
- Oh.
- 347
- 00:21:38,053 --> 00:21:39,919
- Some people tell me I look like Burt Reynolds.
- 348
- 00:21:39,921 --> 00:21:41,288
- I don't see it.
- 349
- 00:21:41,290 --> 00:21:43,189
- Do you see it?
- 350
- 00:21:43,191 --> 00:21:45,591
- - Yeah. I do.
- - Thank you.
- 351
- 00:21:45,593 --> 00:21:47,593
- - You're a sexy man.
- - Thank you, man!
- 352
- 00:21:47,595 --> 00:21:50,196
- You're a sexy man.
- 353
- 00:21:50,198 --> 00:21:52,666
- Can you keep 'em comin'?
- I don't want to say it.
- 354
- 00:21:55,271 --> 00:21:58,605
- I know you got a lot of people
- up and down to take care of,
- 355
- 00:21:58,607 --> 00:22:00,573
- but 'member
- who the main customer...
- 356
- 00:22:00,575 --> 00:22:02,642
- How 'bout the whole bottle?
- 357
- 00:22:02,644 --> 00:22:04,911
- How 'bout the whole bottle?
- 358
- 00:22:04,913 --> 00:22:06,914
- How 'bout the whole bottle?
- 359
- 00:22:06,916 --> 00:22:09,249
- Is that good enough?
- 360
- 00:22:09,251 --> 00:22:11,651
- - Hey. Don't get sad.
- - No.
- 361
- 00:22:11,653 --> 00:22:13,222
- There's so many more.
- 362
- 00:22:15,623 --> 00:22:18,358
- Keep 'em comin', bro.
- We talked about this.
- 363
- 00:22:23,198 --> 00:22:25,564
- Take the wheel.
- 364
- 00:22:27,236 --> 00:22:29,202
- I'm back.
- 365
- 00:22:30,572 --> 00:22:32,140
- Wash it down?
- 366
- 00:22:36,277 --> 00:22:38,344
- Guess who you're driving with.
- 367
- 00:22:38,346 --> 00:22:41,982
- I'm the cunnilingus king
- of Orange County, man.
- 368
- 00:22:41,984 --> 00:22:45,017
- I just love yodeling into it.
- 369
- 00:22:48,223 --> 00:22:51,390
- Oh, shit!
- That's Scott's Adventure Land!
- 370
- 00:22:51,392 --> 00:22:53,426
- That's Scott's Adventure Land!
- 371
- 00:22:53,428 --> 00:22:55,728
- What's
- Scott's Adventure Land?
- 372
- 00:22:55,730 --> 00:22:57,164
- You never been
- to Scott's Adventure Land?
- 373
- 00:22:57,166 --> 00:22:58,665
- I never been to...
- Let's go there.
- 374
- 00:22:58,667 --> 00:23:00,300
- Make a U-turn.
- 375
- 00:23:00,302 --> 00:23:02,601
- Just fucking jump
- over the wall, man.
- 376
- 00:23:20,221 --> 00:23:23,125
- Oh, yeah. Oh, God.
- 377
- 00:23:27,196 --> 00:23:28,264
- Draw!
- 378
- 00:23:29,398 --> 00:23:31,197
- Oh, really?
- 379
- 00:23:31,199 --> 00:23:32,666
- Don't be a fool, buddy.
- 380
- 00:23:32,668 --> 00:23:35,438
- You just tussled
- with the wrong cowboy.
- 381
- 00:23:39,240 --> 00:23:41,340
- You son of a...
- 382
- 00:23:41,342 --> 00:23:43,342
- No!
- 383
- 00:23:43,344 --> 00:23:45,180
- No!
- 384
- 00:23:55,423 --> 00:23:57,657
- - My car, I drive.
- - You're in no condition to drive, my friend.
- 385
- 00:23:57,659 --> 00:23:59,458
- - My car, I drive.
- - I'm gonna take the fucking keys.
- 386
- 00:23:59,460 --> 00:24:02,294
- - Hey. Hey.
- - I'm gonna take the fucking keys.
- 387
- 00:24:02,296 --> 00:24:04,296
- - You guys are in no condition to drive!
- - Aah!
- 388
- 00:24:21,350 --> 00:24:23,719
- Babes.
- 389
- 00:24:43,304 --> 00:24:45,237
- And that was it.
- 390
- 00:24:45,239 --> 00:24:49,810
- Dexter had mistaken a Con
- Edison light pole for an exit
- 391
- 00:24:49,812 --> 00:24:52,748
- and slammed into it
- at 90 miles an hour.
- 392
- 00:25:09,230 --> 00:25:12,232
- Let me know
- when you're ready. I think...
- 393
- 00:25:12,234 --> 00:25:14,736
- On three. One, two, three.
- 394
- 00:25:20,309 --> 00:25:23,079
- Hello, John. I'm Dr. Mirione.
- 395
- 00:25:26,215 --> 00:25:28,148
- Bright, bright lights.
- 396
- 00:25:28,150 --> 00:25:30,349
- Surprisingly noisy, isn't it?
- 397
- 00:25:30,351 --> 00:25:32,852
- Well, there's very little
- peace and quiet for the dying
- 398
- 00:25:32,854 --> 00:25:34,353
- and nearly dying.
- 399
- 00:25:34,355 --> 00:25:36,322
- I'm dying?
- 400
- 00:25:36,324 --> 00:25:39,292
- The average survival time for
- catastrophic patients here is 12 hours.
- 401
- 00:25:39,294 --> 00:25:43,295
- Nasty accident you had
- in that Volkswagen.
- 402
- 00:25:43,297 --> 00:25:44,464
- I saw the car.
- 403
- 00:25:44,466 --> 00:25:48,368
- Looks terrible.
- Looked terrible.
- 404
- 00:25:50,272 --> 00:25:52,238
- I can't hear you. Talk louder.
- 405
- 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:54,808
- What happened to the driver?
- 406
- 00:25:54,810 --> 00:25:56,342
- What happened to Dexter?
- 407
- 00:25:56,344 --> 00:25:57,577
- Oh, Dexter Marzynski?
- 408
- 00:25:57,579 --> 00:26:00,246
- He walked away
- with a few scratches.
- 409
- 00:26:00,248 --> 00:26:01,784
- He was very, very lucky.
- 410
- 00:26:03,784 --> 00:26:05,217
- Jesus Christ.
- 411
- 00:26:05,219 --> 00:26:07,154
- My heart really
- goes out to you.
- 412
- 00:26:07,156 --> 00:26:09,625
- I mean, possibly paralyzed
- for life.
- 413
- 00:26:11,392 --> 00:26:13,426
- Nice sunrise, though.
- 414
- 00:26:19,267 --> 00:26:22,505
- Susan Henry
- to the nurses' station.
- 415
- 00:27:15,256 --> 00:27:16,892
- Hey.
- 416
- 00:27:18,326 --> 00:27:20,262
- Let's see here.
- 417
- 00:27:22,264 --> 00:27:24,863
- This is a C5, C6,
- 418
- 00:27:24,865 --> 00:27:28,267
- which is a complete
- cervical six lesion.
- 419
- 00:27:28,269 --> 00:27:30,236
- Uh, good shoulder movement.
- 420
- 00:27:30,238 --> 00:27:33,305
- Uh, complete paralysis
- of the body and legs.
- 421
- 00:27:33,307 --> 00:27:34,474
- No finger movement,
- but good, uh...
- 422
- 00:27:34,476 --> 00:27:37,010
- I'm not an imposter.
- 423
- 00:27:37,012 --> 00:27:39,346
- - I'm a real quadriplegic.
- - Spinal cord severed
- 424
- 00:27:39,348 --> 00:27:41,481
- between the fifth
- and sixth vertebrae,
- 425
- 00:27:41,483 --> 00:27:43,449
- counting down from the top.
- 426
- 00:27:43,451 --> 00:27:46,886
- Somewhere between decathlon
- champion and rigor mortis.
- 427
- 00:27:46,888 --> 00:27:49,421
- ...half his deltoid,
- half his, uh, diaphragm.
- 428
- 00:27:49,423 --> 00:27:52,658
- But if he's not careful,
- he can choke to death. Yeah.
- 429
- 00:27:52,660 --> 00:27:58,298
- Uh, this patient over here is
- a C4-5 neurologically intact.
- 430
- 00:27:58,300 --> 00:28:01,301
- Uh, a tibia plateau fracture.
- 431
- 00:28:01,303 --> 00:28:04,372
- Not as catastrophic an injury.
- 432
- 00:28:16,551 --> 00:28:18,717
- Hi, John.
- 433
- 00:28:18,719 --> 00:28:20,355
- My name is Annu.
- 434
- 00:28:21,523 --> 00:28:22,722
- Wow.
- 435
- 00:28:22,724 --> 00:28:24,593
- You're very good-looking.
- 436
- 00:28:34,002 --> 00:28:36,305
- How are things
- going here, John?
- 437
- 00:28:37,505 --> 00:28:40,040
- It's bad.
- 438
- 00:28:40,042 --> 00:28:43,576
- It's really bad.
- 439
- 00:28:43,578 --> 00:28:45,411
- I can't move.
- 440
- 00:28:45,413 --> 00:28:47,946
- I can't feel my body,
- and where I can,
- 441
- 00:28:47,948 --> 00:28:50,349
- it just hurts.
- 442
- 00:28:50,351 --> 00:28:52,686
- I can't take a whiz
- or anything.
- 443
- 00:28:52,688 --> 00:28:54,721
- I just feel like
- I'm going fucking crazy.
- 444
- 00:28:54,723 --> 00:28:56,322
- Yeah.
- 445
- 00:28:56,324 --> 00:28:59,091
- Yeah, it doesn't sound
- like it's going too well.
- 446
- 00:28:59,093 --> 00:29:02,395
- No, it doesn't.
- 447
- 00:29:02,397 --> 00:29:03,763
- It's awful.
- 448
- 00:29:03,765 --> 00:29:06,369
- I just don't even know
- how I'm gonna, like...
- 449
- 00:29:08,003 --> 00:29:10,770
- I don't know how I can live
- any life after this.
- 450
- 00:29:10,772 --> 00:29:14,407
- I just feel like
- I'm not gonna have any future.
- 451
- 00:29:14,409 --> 00:29:16,642
- And the doctors
- don't tell me anything,
- 452
- 00:29:16,644 --> 00:29:21,447
- but it looks like I'm just
- gonna be like this for life.
- 453
- 00:29:21,449 --> 00:29:23,416
- I can't understand this.
- 454
- 00:29:23,418 --> 00:29:25,385
- Doesn't seem fair.
- 455
- 00:29:25,387 --> 00:29:29,022
- John, you're a very
- special person.
- 456
- 00:29:29,024 --> 00:29:31,524
- I feel it.
- 457
- 00:29:32,361 --> 00:29:34,360
- I brought you some flowers.
- 458
- 00:29:34,362 --> 00:29:36,428
- I hope you like them.
- 459
- 00:29:36,430 --> 00:29:38,365
- Thank you.
- 460
- 00:29:38,367 --> 00:29:39,802
- Can I smell them?
- 461
- 00:29:44,706 --> 00:29:46,406
- That's nice. Thank you.
- 462
- 00:29:46,408 --> 00:29:49,376
- Would you like me
- to rub your shoulders?
- 463
- 00:29:49,378 --> 00:29:51,547
- Yes, please.
- 464
- 00:29:52,581 --> 00:29:54,613
- It was a lovely day out.
- 465
- 00:29:54,615 --> 00:29:56,014
- Very hot.
- 466
- 00:29:56,016 --> 00:29:58,385
- Drove here in my convertible.
- 467
- 00:29:58,387 --> 00:30:01,388
- Do you really think
- I'm good-looking?
- 468
- 00:30:01,390 --> 00:30:04,157
- Yes, you're very good-looking.
- That hasn't changed.
- 469
- 00:30:04,159 --> 00:30:06,059
- And you have
- tremendous strength.
- 470
- 00:30:06,061 --> 00:30:09,428
- You'll go on to have
- a wonderful life. I can tell.
- 471
- 00:30:09,430 --> 00:30:11,766
- I pray that I will.
- 472
- 00:30:13,401 --> 00:30:15,769
- I make prayers to God,
- you know.
- 473
- 00:30:15,771 --> 00:30:18,737
- I remember
- all the promises to God
- 474
- 00:30:18,739 --> 00:30:23,542
- and pacts with the devil
- made by characters in Dickens
- 475
- 00:30:23,544 --> 00:30:27,147
- or, like, "Rosemary's Baby,"
- 476
- 00:30:27,149 --> 00:30:30,617
- to, you know, like, change
- history and make things better
- 477
- 00:30:30,619 --> 00:30:32,685
- or escape horrible fates.
- 478
- 00:30:32,687 --> 00:30:36,488
- And what do you say to God?
- 479
- 00:30:36,490 --> 00:30:40,193
- I say, "Please,
- don't let me be paralyzed."
- 480
- 00:30:40,195 --> 00:30:42,195
- I just can't be paralyzed.
- 481
- 00:30:42,197 --> 00:30:44,597
- Things work out
- for John Callahan.
- 482
- 00:30:44,599 --> 00:30:47,199
- I'm just not one of the ones
- who ends up paralyzed.
- 483
- 00:30:47,201 --> 00:30:49,104
- I just can't be.
- 484
- 00:30:50,639 --> 00:30:53,676
- And what about when you're
- talking to the devil, John?
- 485
- 00:30:56,178 --> 00:30:59,446
- I say, "I'll give you anything.
- 486
- 00:30:59,448 --> 00:31:03,582
- Anything you want,
- just change this."
- 487
- 00:31:03,584 --> 00:31:05,420
- And you're from Oregon?
- 488
- 00:31:06,521 --> 00:31:08,487
- That's your home?
- 489
- 00:31:08,489 --> 00:31:09,722
- Yes.
- 490
- 00:31:09,724 --> 00:31:11,827
- Yes. The...
- 491
- 00:31:13,195 --> 00:31:15,164
- The Dalles.
- 492
- 00:31:22,603 --> 00:31:24,704
- It's sort of a hick town.
- 493
- 00:31:28,810 --> 00:31:31,477
- We're a bunch of gomers.
- 494
- 00:31:31,479 --> 00:31:34,112
- Gomers? What is "gomers"?
- 495
- 00:31:34,114 --> 00:31:38,184
- I like how you say it.
- "Gomers."
- 496
- 00:31:39,720 --> 00:31:42,187
- I don't know.
- I think it just...
- 497
- 00:31:42,189 --> 00:31:44,256
- you know, it, like, means
- you're from the country.
- 498
- 00:31:44,258 --> 00:31:46,192
- It's derogatory.
- 499
- 00:31:46,194 --> 00:31:47,760
- Ah.
- 500
- 00:31:47,762 --> 00:31:49,561
- Where are you from?
- 501
- 00:31:49,563 --> 00:31:51,196
- From Stockholm.
- 502
- 00:31:51,198 --> 00:31:53,699
- There's a lot of fishing there,
- lots of salmon.
- 503
- 00:31:53,701 --> 00:31:55,570
- Oh, same with The Dalles.
- 504
- 00:31:57,605 --> 00:32:00,205
- - Yeah?
- - Yeah, lots of salmon.
- 505
- 00:32:00,207 --> 00:32:02,175
- Now we have something
- in common.
- 506
- 00:32:02,177 --> 00:32:04,944
- I think we have
- a lot in common, John.
- 507
- 00:32:04,946 --> 00:32:06,913
- Yeah. Salmon.
- 508
- 00:32:06,915 --> 00:32:08,918
- And we're both gomers.
- 509
- 00:32:10,685 --> 00:32:12,284
- And what else, John?
- 510
- 00:32:12,286 --> 00:32:13,956
- I look at the sunrise.
- 511
- 00:32:15,623 --> 00:32:17,890
- - The sunrise is nice.
- - Mm-hmm.
- 512
- 00:32:17,892 --> 00:32:21,261
- It's very calming.
- 513
- 00:32:21,263 --> 00:32:23,466
- I've been watching
- the gymnasts out there.
- 514
- 00:32:37,312 --> 00:32:39,678
- I have to go to my next
- appointment now, John.
- 515
- 00:32:39,680 --> 00:32:41,680
- But I'll be seeing
- you again soon.
- 516
- 00:32:41,682 --> 00:32:43,818
- - When?
- - One day next week.
- 517
- 00:32:45,754 --> 00:32:48,186
- Very nice to meet you, John.
- 518
- 00:32:48,188 --> 00:32:50,223
- I like meeting you, too, Annu.
- 519
- 00:32:50,225 --> 00:32:53,560
- Thank you.
- Thank you for my flowers.
- 520
- 00:32:53,562 --> 00:32:54,929
- See you soon.
- 521
- 00:32:56,331 --> 00:32:57,900
- Bye.
- 522
- 00:33:04,939 --> 00:33:06,738
- I'm glad I met Annu.
- 523
- 00:33:06,740 --> 00:33:09,708
- What about us, John?
- Aren't you glad you met us?
- 524
- 00:33:09,710 --> 00:33:11,311
- John doesn't like us.
- 525
- 00:33:11,313 --> 00:33:12,779
- Well, of course I like you.
- 526
- 00:33:12,781 --> 00:33:15,281
- I just can't get laid
- with any of you.
- 527
- 00:33:15,283 --> 00:33:17,586
- Have you tried?
- 528
- 00:33:19,787 --> 00:33:21,656
- Well, have you tried?
- 529
- 00:33:23,291 --> 00:33:25,992
- One, two and three.
- 530
- 00:33:25,994 --> 00:33:27,025
- Here we go.
- 531
- 00:33:27,027 --> 00:33:28,594
- All right.
- 532
- 00:33:28,596 --> 00:33:30,663
- Adjust him on three.
- 533
- 00:33:30,665 --> 00:33:32,865
- One, two, three.
- 534
- 00:33:32,867 --> 00:33:34,333
- - There we go.
- - There you go.
- 535
- 00:33:34,335 --> 00:33:35,637
- All set.
- 536
- 00:33:39,707 --> 00:33:41,608
- That's the power button
- right here.
- 537
- 00:33:41,610 --> 00:33:43,279
- Enjoy.
- 538
- 00:34:13,907 --> 00:34:15,677
- Oh.
- 539
- 00:35:13,968 --> 00:35:15,734
- Oh.
- 540
- 00:35:16,970 --> 00:35:18,738
- Ah.
- 541
- 00:35:18,740 --> 00:35:20,338
- Ah, nice shot.
- 542
- 00:35:20,340 --> 00:35:23,041
- - Hey, man. How you doing?
- - Pretty good. How you doing?
- 543
- 00:35:23,043 --> 00:35:25,343
- Pretty good.
- We're just shooting some hoops.
- 544
- 00:35:25,345 --> 00:35:26,812
- Fucking "A."
- 545
- 00:35:26,814 --> 00:35:28,347
- I'm John.
- 546
- 00:35:28,349 --> 00:35:30,885
- - Charles-Marie. Welcome.
- - Nice to meet you. Thanks.
- 547
- 00:35:41,863 --> 00:35:44,430
- Sexual
- activity is an opportunity
- 548
- 00:35:44,432 --> 00:35:46,399
- to get to know yourself again.
- 549
- 00:35:46,401 --> 00:35:49,135
- It's an opportunity
- to build confidence.
- 550
- 00:35:49,137 --> 00:35:52,104
- After your accident, John,
- your body doesn't have
- 551
- 00:35:52,106 --> 00:35:54,407
- ordinary psychogenic
- erections anymore,
- 552
- 00:35:54,409 --> 00:35:57,744
- so you have to use
- reflexogenic erections.
- 553
- 00:35:57,746 --> 00:36:00,079
- Reflexogenic erections.
- 554
- 00:36:00,081 --> 00:36:02,080
- Sounds sexy.
- 555
- 00:36:02,082 --> 00:36:05,151
- So, how would I go about
- achieving that?
- 556
- 00:36:05,153 --> 00:36:07,186
- - Can you demonstrate?
- - Behave.
- 557
- 00:36:07,188 --> 00:36:09,088
- Have you thought about
- 558
- 00:36:09,090 --> 00:36:10,823
- asking that little nurse
- of yours
- 559
- 00:36:10,825 --> 00:36:12,524
- to sit on your face
- some night, John?
- 560
- 00:36:12,526 --> 00:36:15,995
- Hey, Lilly,
- may I ask you a question?
- 561
- 00:36:15,997 --> 00:36:18,898
- Sure, yeah.
- Ask me anything. Anything.
- 562
- 00:36:18,900 --> 00:36:21,166
- Can you sit on my face?
- 563
- 00:36:21,168 --> 00:36:27,140
- That's a shocking
- yet wildly exciting idea.
- 564
- 00:36:27,142 --> 00:36:28,508
- But no. I mean...
- 565
- 00:36:28,510 --> 00:36:30,108
- Would that be appropriate?
- 566
- 00:36:30,110 --> 00:36:32,410
- Who cares if it's appropriate?
- 567
- 00:36:32,412 --> 00:36:33,845
- John.
- 568
- 00:36:33,847 --> 00:36:35,183
- You're thinking about it.
- 569
- 00:36:39,253 --> 00:36:41,189
- Good night.
- 570
- 00:36:44,825 --> 00:36:45,992
- Did you hear that?
- 571
- 00:36:45,994 --> 00:36:47,526
- You scored.
- 572
- 00:36:47,528 --> 00:36:49,162
- Not quite.
- 573
- 00:36:49,164 --> 00:36:51,196
- She'll be back.
- 574
- 00:36:51,198 --> 00:36:53,099
- My job's
- to get you the erection.
- 575
- 00:36:53,101 --> 00:36:54,901
- That's all I care about.
- 576
- 00:36:54,903 --> 00:36:57,202
- Worse she could say is no,
- and if she says no,
- 577
- 00:36:57,204 --> 00:36:59,872
- then you come back and ask me.
- 578
- 00:36:59,874 --> 00:37:01,106
- That's a deal.
- 579
- 00:37:01,108 --> 00:37:03,142
- Reflexogenic simply means
- 580
- 00:37:03,144 --> 00:37:06,044
- that it has to be
- from the touch, okay?
- 581
- 00:37:06,046 --> 00:37:07,146
- If she sits there...
- 582
- 00:37:08,148 --> 00:37:10,216
- ...the touch will stimulate
- 583
- 00:37:10,218 --> 00:37:14,153
- blood flow to here,
- hence causing an erection.
- 584
- 00:37:14,155 --> 00:37:17,122
- Okay?
- 585
- 00:37:19,059 --> 00:37:21,193
- - Really?
- - But you can't just think about it.
- 586
- 00:37:21,195 --> 00:37:23,162
- You can't just
- imagine it anymore.
- 587
- 00:37:33,006 --> 00:37:34,140
- - Are you feeling me?
- - Yeah.
- 588
- 00:37:34,142 --> 00:37:35,908
- That's where my dick
- used to be.
- 589
- 00:37:41,182 --> 00:37:42,615
- Pull it.
- 590
- 00:37:42,617 --> 00:37:45,084
- I'm trying to get
- further and further.
- 591
- 00:37:45,086 --> 00:37:47,019
- And down.
- 592
- 00:37:47,021 --> 00:37:48,220
- Can you do it?
- 593
- 00:37:48,222 --> 00:37:51,591
- Annu, sometimes
- I just want to drink.
- 594
- 00:37:51,593 --> 00:37:56,195
- You know, it doesn't seem fair
- that we can't have a drink.
- 595
- 00:37:56,197 --> 00:37:57,629
- But, you know, we can go
- 596
- 00:37:57,631 --> 00:38:00,233
- to Tiny's Tavern
- on the weekends
- 597
- 00:38:00,235 --> 00:38:02,100
- and drink as much as we want.
- 598
- 00:38:02,102 --> 00:38:03,635
- Might give it to us for free,
- 599
- 00:38:03,637 --> 00:38:05,303
- you know, 'cause
- they feel bad for us.
- 600
- 00:38:05,305 --> 00:38:07,138
- You know, we milk it.
- 601
- 00:38:10,311 --> 00:38:12,245
- Oh, you're not gonna believe
- what happened the other night.
- 602
- 00:38:12,247 --> 00:38:15,180
- So, we're coming back
- from Tiny's Tavern,
- 603
- 00:38:15,182 --> 00:38:17,916
- me and Charles-Marie,
- and we're crossing
- 604
- 00:38:17,918 --> 00:38:20,321
- the railroad tracks
- on our way back here.
- 605
- 00:38:21,889 --> 00:38:24,289
- And Charles-Marie's chair
- got stuck
- 606
- 00:38:24,291 --> 00:38:26,024
- in the railroad tracks.
- 607
- 00:38:26,026 --> 00:38:27,329
- Shit!
- 608
- 00:38:29,997 --> 00:38:32,999
- And he said, "Let me die.
- 609
- 00:38:33,001 --> 00:38:35,635
- Let me die.
- It's better this way."
- 610
- 00:38:35,637 --> 00:38:38,137
- Just let me die!
- It's better this way!
- 611
- 00:38:38,139 --> 00:38:41,140
- Grab on to my chair.
- Grab on to my chair!
- 612
- 00:38:43,278 --> 00:38:45,912
- And you know what's funny?
- 613
- 00:38:45,914 --> 00:38:48,013
- He meant it.
- 614
- 00:38:48,015 --> 00:38:53,019
- I think, in that moment,
- he really wanted to die.
- 615
- 00:38:53,021 --> 00:38:54,921
- That's not very funny, John.
- 616
- 00:38:54,923 --> 00:38:56,923
- That sounds dangerous.
- 617
- 00:39:00,260 --> 00:39:02,197
- All in a day of being a quad.
- 618
- 00:39:14,175 --> 00:39:15,240
- Hello.
- 619
- 00:39:15,242 --> 00:39:17,276
- Hey, uh, is this Donnie?
- 620
- 00:39:17,278 --> 00:39:19,111
- Yeah, who's this?
- 621
- 00:39:19,113 --> 00:39:20,312
- Hey, Donnie,
- this is John Callahan.
- 622
- 00:39:20,314 --> 00:39:23,316
- I'm the neon cripple
- from outer space.
- 623
- 00:39:23,318 --> 00:39:25,184
- Oh, the man
- with the tangerine hair?
- 624
- 00:39:25,186 --> 00:39:29,055
- Well, I always thought
- of my hair as electric orange,
- 625
- 00:39:29,057 --> 00:39:30,622
- but, yeah, that's me.
- 626
- 00:39:30,624 --> 00:39:34,026
- Uh, look, I got your number
- off the board.
- 627
- 00:39:34,028 --> 00:39:36,195
- I'm calling because
- 628
- 00:39:36,197 --> 00:39:38,296
- I need a sponsor.
- 629
- 00:39:38,298 --> 00:39:41,233
- I do have a lot of piglets
- at the moment.
- 630
- 00:39:41,235 --> 00:39:43,970
- What are piglets?
- I need a sponsor.
- 631
- 00:39:43,972 --> 00:39:45,338
- My sponsees are piglets.
- 632
- 00:39:46,606 --> 00:39:48,274
- That's funny.
- 633
- 00:39:48,276 --> 00:39:50,276
- - Wow.
- - You want me to help you get sober.
- 634
- 00:39:50,278 --> 00:39:53,079
- Well, I saw you speak, and, uh,
- 635
- 00:39:53,081 --> 00:39:55,314
- I really like
- what you had to say
- 636
- 00:39:55,316 --> 00:39:57,249
- about the two pairs of pants
- and the woman's...
- 637
- 00:39:57,251 --> 00:39:59,318
- See, John, I know. I just...
- 638
- 00:39:59,320 --> 00:40:01,120
- And I don't know
- if you're serious.
- 639
- 00:40:01,122 --> 00:40:02,187
- Oh, Jesus Christ.
- 640
- 00:40:02,189 --> 00:40:03,222
- Oh, I call him Chucky.
- akumenang.com
- 641
- 00:40:03,224 --> 00:40:05,124
- What?
- 642
- 00:40:05,126 --> 00:40:07,059
- I don't know, John Callahan.
- I don't...
- 643
- 00:40:07,061 --> 00:40:08,394
- I'm serious. I am serious.
- 644
- 00:40:08,396 --> 00:40:10,428
- I... you know,
- sometimes I just, I make jokes
- 645
- 00:40:10,430 --> 00:40:15,100
- 'cause I get nervous, but I'm,
- I-I need, I need something.
- 646
- 00:40:15,102 --> 00:40:16,736
- You know...
- 647
- 00:40:16,738 --> 00:40:21,273
- every day,
- like clockwork at 4:00 p.m.,
- 648
- 00:40:21,275 --> 00:40:24,010
- I get massively depressed.
- 649
- 00:40:24,012 --> 00:40:26,111
- Well, I'm depressed
- from the moment I wake up,
- 650
- 00:40:26,113 --> 00:40:28,446
- - so got you there.
- - Listen.
- 651
- 00:40:28,448 --> 00:40:32,218
- We're having a group talk,
- my place on Saturday.
- 652
- 00:40:32,220 --> 00:40:33,686
- Why don't you drop by?
- 653
- 00:40:33,688 --> 00:40:35,287
- Ooh, a talk?
- 654
- 00:40:35,289 --> 00:40:36,722
- We'll talk about Chucky.
- 655
- 00:40:36,724 --> 00:40:38,657
- The other piglets
- are coming by at 1:00.
- 656
- 00:40:38,659 --> 00:40:40,059
- 4014 Northwest Johnson.
- 657
- 00:40:40,061 --> 00:40:41,794
- - Don't be late.
- - Tim.
- 658
- 00:40:41,796 --> 00:40:43,294
- 4014 Northwest Johnson.
- 659
- 00:40:43,296 --> 00:40:45,363
- - 1:00 p.m.
- - Are you talking to me?
- 660
- 00:40:45,365 --> 00:40:47,666
- - All right, thank you. I'll see you then.
- - Okay.
- 661
- 00:40:47,668 --> 00:40:50,137
- Drink water. Bye.
- 662
- 00:40:53,140 --> 00:40:54,407
- 40... Wait, what was it?
- 663
- 00:40:54,409 --> 00:40:56,776
- - 4014 Southwest Johnson.
- - Okay.
- 664
- 00:40:56,778 --> 00:40:59,412
- Let's go.
- 665
- 00:40:59,414 --> 00:41:02,113
- Hey, Sam, get back
- and clean up this mess.
- 666
- 00:41:02,115 --> 00:41:04,216
- And get out of here
- and go grab some PT.
- 667
- 00:41:04,218 --> 00:41:06,318
- You grab some PT.
- 668
- 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,153
- - Hi.
- - Oh.
- 669
- 00:41:08,155 --> 00:41:09,187
- - Oh, hi.
- - Oh, sorry.
- 670
- 00:41:09,189 --> 00:41:10,222
- - That's okay.
- - Hi.
- 671
- 00:41:10,224 --> 00:41:11,490
- Hi. I'm Debbie.
- 672
- 00:41:11,492 --> 00:41:13,792
- - Hi, I'm John.
- - Hi, what's up?
- 673
- 00:41:13,794 --> 00:41:15,193
- Um, I'm gonna go out
- to the park.
- 674
- 00:41:15,195 --> 00:41:17,195
- - Do you want to come with me?
- - Uh...
- 675
- 00:41:17,197 --> 00:41:19,832
- fuck, today is Monday.
- 676
- 00:41:19,834 --> 00:41:21,466
- - Fuck yeah.
- - Yes?
- 677
- 00:41:21,468 --> 00:41:23,702
- - Oh, yeah.
- - Thank you. Good, let's go.
- 678
- 00:41:23,704 --> 00:41:26,405
- Okay.
- 679
- 00:41:30,845 --> 00:41:33,379
- ? Gonna have
- a funky, good time... ?
- 680
- 00:41:33,381 --> 00:41:35,146
- You did it. You did it.
- 681
- 00:41:35,148 --> 00:41:36,347
- Yeah.
- 682
- 00:41:38,285 --> 00:41:41,720
- ? Gonna have
- a funky, good time ?
- 683
- 00:41:41,722 --> 00:41:44,222
- ? Gonna have a funky,
- good time ?
- 684
- 00:41:44,224 --> 00:41:45,825
- ? Take 'em up ?
- 685
- 00:41:45,827 --> 00:41:47,093
- ? Gotta take you ?
- 686
- 00:41:47,095 --> 00:41:52,263
- ? Higher ?
- 687
- 00:41:52,265 --> 00:41:55,267
- ? Gotta take you higher... ?
- 688
- 00:42:00,740 --> 00:42:02,541
- ? Gonna have
- a funky, good time... ?
- 689
- 00:42:02,543 --> 00:42:04,309
- Got it. Yeah.
- 690
- 00:42:04,311 --> 00:42:07,146
- ? Gonna have
- a funky, good time... ?
- 691
- 00:42:07,148 --> 00:42:08,446
- You got it. You got it.
- 692
- 00:42:08,448 --> 00:42:11,117
- - Hey, you're a good dancer.
- - Oh, well...
- 693
- 00:42:11,119 --> 00:42:12,584
- ? Play it, Georgia ?
- 694
- 00:42:12,586 --> 00:42:14,352
- ? Gonna have
- a funky, good time ?
- 695
- 00:42:14,354 --> 00:42:15,887
- ? Take 'em up ?
- 696
- 00:42:15,889 --> 00:42:17,189
- ? Gotta take you ?
- 697
- 00:42:17,191 --> 00:42:21,163
- ? Higher ?
- 698
- 00:42:23,296 --> 00:42:24,296
- ? Gotta take you ?
- 699
- 00:42:24,298 --> 00:42:28,470
- ? Higher ?
- 700
- 00:42:35,242 --> 00:42:36,274
- Hello.
- 701
- 00:42:36,276 --> 00:42:37,510
- Hey, is-is Donnie here?
- 702
- 00:42:37,512 --> 00:42:39,345
- - Yeah, he is.
- - Oh.
- 703
- 00:42:39,347 --> 00:42:41,312
- - Hi, I'm John.
- - Hi, John.
- 704
- 00:42:41,314 --> 00:42:44,249
- - I'm so sorry we're late.
- - How you doing?
- 705
- 00:42:44,251 --> 00:42:46,352
- John, welcome to the group.
- 706
- 00:42:46,354 --> 00:42:47,586
- Hi. Thanks. Sorry we're late.
- 707
- 00:42:47,588 --> 00:42:49,787
- - Oh...
- - Tim thought it was Southwest.
- 708
- 00:42:49,789 --> 00:42:51,524
- - Why'd you think Southwest?
- - It's okay.
- 709
- 00:42:51,526 --> 00:42:53,425
- Yeah, Southwest,
- but we got here, didn't we?
- 710
- 00:42:53,427 --> 00:42:55,294
- This is Reba,
- who I think you've met.
- 711
- 00:42:55,296 --> 00:42:59,231
- - Hello.
- - Martingale, Corky, Hans, Mike.
- 712
- 00:42:59,233 --> 00:43:00,231
- - Hi.
- - Hello.
- 713
- 00:43:00,233 --> 00:43:01,367
- Welcome.
- 714
- 00:43:01,369 --> 00:43:03,234
- That's Tim.
- 715
- 00:43:03,236 --> 00:43:04,570
- - Welcome, Tim.
- - Tim.
- 716
- 00:43:04,572 --> 00:43:06,539
- - Hi, Tim.
- - Hello, Tim.
- 717
- 00:43:06,541 --> 00:43:09,374
- And now that we're
- getting all acquainted,
- 718
- 00:43:09,376 --> 00:43:10,876
- how was everyone's week?
- 719
- 00:43:10,878 --> 00:43:12,244
- Anybody want to speak?
- 720
- 00:43:12,246 --> 00:43:14,180
- Um, I have something
- to talk about.
- 721
- 00:43:14,182 --> 00:43:16,314
- Oh, John, just so you know,
- since you're new here,
- 722
- 00:43:16,316 --> 00:43:17,249
- I'm a poet.
- 723
- 00:43:17,251 --> 00:43:19,318
- A street poet.
- 724
- 00:43:19,320 --> 00:43:21,287
- And a gay activist.
- 725
- 00:43:21,289 --> 00:43:23,622
- So, I was
- at the Pendleton Round-Up,
- 726
- 00:43:23,624 --> 00:43:27,193
- and I took the opportunity
- to read one of my poems,
- 727
- 00:43:27,195 --> 00:43:30,829
- which has in it a number
- of references to young cocks.
- 728
- 00:43:30,831 --> 00:43:32,830
- This is it.
- 729
- 00:43:32,832 --> 00:43:35,367
- "Hot...
- 730
- 00:43:35,369 --> 00:43:37,303
- in the summer sun.
- 731
- 00:43:37,305 --> 00:43:41,273
- Working all day, hustling hay.
- 732
- 00:43:41,275 --> 00:43:43,943
- It's getting harder
- 733
- 00:43:43,945 --> 00:43:46,312
- and harder
- 734
- 00:43:46,314 --> 00:43:48,247
- and harder...
- 735
- 00:43:48,249 --> 00:43:51,450
- ready to pop
- out of their button fly.
- 736
- 00:43:51,452 --> 00:43:52,654
- Pop!
- 737
- 00:43:53,653 --> 00:43:54,954
- Pop!"
- 738
- 00:43:54,956 --> 00:43:57,323
- We got it. Pop!
- 739
- 00:43:57,325 --> 00:44:00,358
- - Pop! It's all about penises, please.
- - Oh, stop.
- 740
- 00:44:00,360 --> 00:44:03,329
- And just like that,
- some cowboy stops me
- 741
- 00:44:03,331 --> 00:44:05,330
- and says my poem is X-rated.
- 742
- 00:44:05,332 --> 00:44:07,899
- And you don't think it was?
- 743
- 00:44:07,901 --> 00:44:09,468
- No. It wasn't.
- 744
- 00:44:09,470 --> 00:44:11,570
- It was a red-blooded,
- American poem.
- 745
- 00:44:11,572 --> 00:44:13,472
- All right.
- 746
- 00:44:13,474 --> 00:44:15,608
- So, the cowboy tells me
- to stop, and I say to him,
- 747
- 00:44:15,610 --> 00:44:18,611
- "I'm an American
- reading an American poem
- 748
- 00:44:18,613 --> 00:44:21,347
- about an American institution."
- 749
- 00:44:21,349 --> 00:44:22,948
- He didn't like that.
- 750
- 00:44:22,950 --> 00:44:25,283
- He accused me of being drunk.
- 751
- 00:44:25,285 --> 00:44:28,553
- I say to him, "I've been sober
- now for three years.
- 752
- 00:44:28,555 --> 00:44:31,423
- I'm a proud member of A.A."
- 753
- 00:44:31,425 --> 00:44:32,957
- And I walked off.
- 754
- 00:44:32,959 --> 00:44:36,028
- Anyone want to respond
- to Martingale's story?
- 755
- 00:44:36,030 --> 00:44:38,930
- Well, the poems make
- straight guys angry.
- 756
- 00:44:38,932 --> 00:44:41,399
- - I'm not angry, Hans.
- - See?
- 757
- 00:44:41,401 --> 00:44:43,901
- But here's the thing:
- that kind of anger
- 758
- 00:44:43,903 --> 00:44:46,472
- can get in the way
- of your recovery.
- 759
- 00:44:46,474 --> 00:44:49,475
- I think we can all agree
- that being out there
- 760
- 00:44:49,477 --> 00:44:52,977
- and having a good time...
- not drinking, we get it...
- 761
- 00:44:52,979 --> 00:44:54,445
- feels really good.
- 762
- 00:44:54,447 --> 00:44:56,582
- But it's one thing
- to read your poems
- 763
- 00:44:56,584 --> 00:44:58,383
- in front of people
- that you know
- 764
- 00:44:58,385 --> 00:45:00,419
- in your Greek cafes
- late at night,
- 765
- 00:45:00,421 --> 00:45:03,354
- but it's another to read it in
- front of rednecks at a rodeo.
- 766
- 00:45:03,356 --> 00:45:05,356
- It's a little bit dangerous.
- 767
- 00:45:05,358 --> 00:45:07,026
- - I think he was really brave.
- - Mm.
- 768
- 00:45:07,028 --> 00:45:08,526
- - Yeah, I do, too, Martingale.
- - Yeah.
- 769
- 00:45:08,528 --> 00:45:10,361
- - I mean, I...
- - Fuck the rednecks, right?
- 770
- 00:45:10,363 --> 00:45:11,729
- - That's right.
- - Hey. I'm a mullet-haired redneck,
- 771
- 00:45:11,731 --> 00:45:13,332
- and you know
- I'll kick your ass.
- 772
- 00:45:13,334 --> 00:45:14,666
- You know I can kick your ass.
- 773
- 00:45:14,668 --> 00:45:16,334
- - John, any comments?
- - What?
- 774
- 00:45:16,336 --> 00:45:17,572
- John.
- 775
- 00:45:18,706 --> 00:45:20,571
- What I want to know is,
- 776
- 00:45:20,573 --> 00:45:22,408
- with all the poems
- that you have,
- 777
- 00:45:22,410 --> 00:45:24,343
- they can't all be
- about penises.
- 778
- 00:45:24,345 --> 00:45:26,445
- I mean, you probably got
- some pretty ones, I'm sure.
- 779
- 00:45:26,447 --> 00:45:27,713
- Well, what I believe
- 780
- 00:45:27,715 --> 00:45:31,450
- is we all have led,
- in our non-sober periods,
- 781
- 00:45:31,452 --> 00:45:33,352
- somewhat chaotic lives.
- 782
- 00:45:33,354 --> 00:45:37,423
- And I think there's
- a very fine line between
- 783
- 00:45:37,425 --> 00:45:40,358
- creating chaos
- because of the adventure
- 784
- 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:44,265
- and creating chaos because
- of the dependency on it.
- 785
- 00:45:45,532 --> 00:45:47,099
- Now, John isn't
- speaking very much,
- 786
- 00:45:47,101 --> 00:45:49,702
- so perhaps he thinks
- he's better than us.
- 787
- 00:45:49,704 --> 00:45:52,307
- So, John, do you want
- to tell us about your drinking?
- 788
- 00:45:54,108 --> 00:45:56,642
- Oh.
- 789
- 00:45:56,644 --> 00:45:59,410
- Is this... Do I say,
- "John, I'm an alcoholic"?
- 790
- 00:45:59,412 --> 00:46:01,483
- Just tell us
- about your drinking.
- 791
- 00:46:04,385 --> 00:46:06,517
- Um...
- 792
- 00:46:06,519 --> 00:46:08,454
- Well, I, um,
- 793
- 00:46:08,456 --> 00:46:12,059
- I started drinking
- when I was, uh, 13.
- 794
- 00:46:14,095 --> 00:46:16,128
- Um...
- 795
- 00:46:16,130 --> 00:46:20,535
- I-I stole a bottle of gin
- from my Aunt Diane.
- 796
- 00:46:21,635 --> 00:46:25,003
- And, um, I liked it.
- 797
- 00:46:25,005 --> 00:46:27,439
- A lot.
- 798
- 00:46:27,441 --> 00:46:29,010
- And I never stopped.
- 799
- 00:46:30,443 --> 00:46:31,709
- Okay.
- 800
- 00:46:31,711 --> 00:46:34,812
- Um, yeah...
- 801
- 00:46:34,814 --> 00:46:36,615
- Keep going.
- 802
- 00:46:36,617 --> 00:46:41,553
- I mean, I-I kept drinking,
- I guess,
- 803
- 00:46:41,555 --> 00:46:44,390
- maybe because I was adopted.
- 804
- 00:46:44,392 --> 00:46:46,392
- I was adopted.
- 805
- 00:46:46,394 --> 00:46:49,026
- And, um,
- 806
- 00:46:49,028 --> 00:46:52,530
- maybe it made me
- not care as much about that.
- 807
- 00:46:52,532 --> 00:46:55,401
- Or...
- 808
- 00:46:55,403 --> 00:46:57,135
- Yeah.
- 809
- 00:46:57,137 --> 00:46:59,405
- I-I don't, I don't really know.
- 810
- 00:46:59,407 --> 00:47:02,508
- - Yeah...
- - Corky drank 'cause her name is Corky.
- 811
- 00:47:05,613 --> 00:47:07,845
- I drank 'cause my shoes
- were too tight.
- 812
- 00:47:07,847 --> 00:47:09,847
- You know,
- 813
- 00:47:09,849 --> 00:47:12,417
- I'm glad you find this amusing.
- 814
- 00:47:12,419 --> 00:47:13,718
- John, what we're trying
- to point out
- 815
- 00:47:13,720 --> 00:47:15,454
- is that we all have excuses.
- 816
- 00:47:15,456 --> 00:47:17,856
- I resent you characterizing
- 817
- 00:47:17,858 --> 00:47:20,492
- such a painful part
- of my childhood,
- 818
- 00:47:20,494 --> 00:47:23,398
- such as being an orphan,
- as an excuse.
- 819
- 00:47:24,697 --> 00:47:28,834
- I mean,
- it is a fact, among others.
- 820
- 00:47:28,836 --> 00:47:30,836
- Like, for instance,
- I can't move
- 821
- 00:47:30,838 --> 00:47:32,671
- one fucking muscle
- below my chest.
- 822
- 00:47:32,673 --> 00:47:34,807
- Would that qualify as an excuse?
- 823
- 00:47:34,809 --> 00:47:38,142
- - What are you laughing at?
- - We were waiting for that.
- 824
- 00:47:38,144 --> 00:47:40,445
- We just knew you were gonna
- say that, that's all.
- 825
- 00:47:40,447 --> 00:47:42,146
- - You fucking cow!
- - Oh.
- 826
- 00:47:42,148 --> 00:47:43,682
- You wouldn't know pain
- if it crawled up
- 827
- 00:47:43,684 --> 00:47:45,149
- your fucking ass
- and devoured you!
- 828
- 00:47:45,151 --> 00:47:46,218
- How dare you!
- 829
- 00:47:46,220 --> 00:47:48,187
- I'm sorry.
- Well...
- 830
- 00:47:50,157 --> 00:47:53,827
- ...as a matter of fact,
- I have cancer of the heart.
- 831
- 00:47:57,164 --> 00:47:58,863
- And just let me
- tell you something
- 832
- 00:47:58,865 --> 00:48:01,166
- about your "poor me" s, okay?
- 833
- 00:48:01,168 --> 00:48:03,535
- You keep it up,
- "poor me, poor me,"
- 834
- 00:48:03,537 --> 00:48:05,102
- and you're gonna
- find yourself saying,
- 835
- 00:48:05,104 --> 00:48:06,738
- - "Pour me another drink."
- - Mm.
- 836
- 00:48:06,740 --> 00:48:09,140
- And for the record,
- 837
- 00:48:09,142 --> 00:48:12,644
- when I first came here,
- I was a fat, worthless cow.
- 838
- 00:48:12,646 --> 00:48:14,646
- But I worked these 12 steps,
- 839
- 00:48:14,648 --> 00:48:17,548
- and I carved out a little bit
- of a life for myself.
- 840
- 00:48:17,550 --> 00:48:19,486
- I'm sorry, Reba.
- 841
- 00:48:20,753 --> 00:48:22,153
- I'm sorry, everybody.
- 842
- 00:48:22,155 --> 00:48:23,921
- - It's okay.
- - It's expected.
- 843
- 00:48:23,923 --> 00:48:27,225
- It's okay, John.
- 844
- 00:48:27,227 --> 00:48:30,762
- You're right on schedule,
- sweetheart.
- 845
- 00:48:30,764 --> 00:48:32,564
- And I'm glad you're here.
- I want to tell you that.
- 846
- 00:48:32,566 --> 00:48:34,836
- - Thank you.
- - I'm glad you're here.
- 847
- 00:48:41,242 --> 00:48:43,274
- I like you guys.
- 848
- 00:48:43,276 --> 00:48:46,245
- You're fucking crazy.
- 849
- 00:48:49,517 --> 00:48:51,517
- We like you, too, man.
- 850
- 00:48:51,519 --> 00:48:53,651
- Well, wait till
- you get to know me.
- 851
- 00:49:39,300 --> 00:49:40,566
- Hey, bro.
- 852
- 00:49:40,568 --> 00:49:42,901
- Shot of that wine?
- 853
- 00:49:42,903 --> 00:49:46,338
- Goddamn it, I haven't even had
- my first fucking drink.
- 854
- 00:49:46,340 --> 00:49:48,774
- There's one
- in my right shirt pocket here.
- 855
- 00:49:48,776 --> 00:49:51,044
- The jacket here. Go get it.
- It's another quart.
- 856
- 00:50:04,825 --> 00:50:06,291
- Okay, great.
- 857
- 00:50:06,293 --> 00:50:08,026
- Thanks, now.
- 858
- 00:50:08,028 --> 00:50:10,595
- Mr. Katz will see you.
- 859
- 00:50:10,597 --> 00:50:12,266
- Oh, thank you.
- 860
- 00:50:19,974 --> 00:50:21,640
- Afternoon.
- 861
- 00:50:21,642 --> 00:50:23,041
- Good afternoon.
- 862
- 00:50:23,043 --> 00:50:25,644
- Thanks so much for taking
- the time to see me.
- 863
- 00:50:25,646 --> 00:50:27,312
- Not at all.
- 864
- 00:50:27,314 --> 00:50:29,981
- - What can I do for you?
- - My name is John Callahan.
- 865
- 00:50:29,983 --> 00:50:33,651
- I was born in 1950 at the old
- Saint Vincent's Hospital.
- 866
- 00:50:33,653 --> 00:50:36,021
- I know three things
- about my real mother:
- 867
- 00:50:36,023 --> 00:50:38,689
- she was Irish-American,
- she had red hair,
- 868
- 00:50:38,691 --> 00:50:40,892
- - she was a school teacher.
- - Mm-hmm.
- 869
- 00:50:40,894 --> 00:50:43,361
- Oh, yeah.
- And she didn't want me.
- 870
- 00:50:43,363 --> 00:50:45,329
- So, four things.
- 871
- 00:50:45,331 --> 00:50:47,064
- Anyway, I was hoping
- you could help me find her.
- 872
- 00:50:47,066 --> 00:50:52,771
- I-I made this sketch of what
- I think she might look like.
- 873
- 00:50:52,773 --> 00:50:55,309
- Maybe it'll help you out.
- 874
- 00:50:59,046 --> 00:51:00,711
- It's very nice.
- 875
- 00:51:00,713 --> 00:51:02,314
- Callahan.
- 876
- 00:51:02,316 --> 00:51:03,814
- Yeah, John.
- 877
- 00:51:03,816 --> 00:51:06,651
- Old Saint Vincent's Hospital.
- 878
- 00:51:06,653 --> 00:51:08,922
- Well... let's see.
- 879
- 00:51:17,097 --> 00:51:18,829
- That's really my file?
- 880
- 00:51:18,831 --> 00:51:20,097
- All right. This is the one.
- 881
- 00:51:20,099 --> 00:51:21,700
- That's it? Let me look at it.
- 882
- 00:51:21,702 --> 00:51:23,838
- Yeah, we'll go back over.
- 883
- 00:51:25,706 --> 00:51:27,842
- All right.
- 884
- 00:51:34,814 --> 00:51:36,080
- What's it say?
- 885
- 00:51:36,082 --> 00:51:38,086
- Uh...
- 886
- 00:51:39,820 --> 00:51:41,753
- Well, Mr. Callahan,
- there's little I can do.
- 887
- 00:51:41,755 --> 00:51:43,421
- Wait. No, you saw something.
- 888
- 00:51:43,423 --> 00:51:45,823
- - Mr. Callahan. Mr. Callahan.
- - What's in there? What'd you...
- 889
- 00:51:45,825 --> 00:51:47,358
- The state of Oregon has a law.
- 890
- 00:51:47,360 --> 00:51:49,727
- Forget the state of Oregon,
- man. Come on.
- 891
- 00:51:49,729 --> 00:51:50,928
- Mr. Callahan,
- I could lose my job.
- 892
- 00:51:50,930 --> 00:51:53,097
- - There's just nothing I can do.
- - Wait, what does that say?
- 893
- 00:51:53,099 --> 00:51:55,800
- Is that... is that
- "Maggie Lynch"?
- 894
- 00:51:55,802 --> 00:51:57,102
- - I can't say, Mr....
- - Is that her name?
- 895
- 00:51:57,104 --> 00:51:59,104
- - Maggie Lynch?
- - Mr. Callahan, I can't say.
- 896
- 00:51:59,106 --> 00:52:00,972
- What do you mean you can't say?
- It's written down right there.
- 897
- 00:52:00,974 --> 00:52:02,340
- I just saw it.
- Is that her name, Maggie Lynch?
- 898
- 00:52:02,342 --> 00:52:05,142
- Mr. Callahan, I am not
- gonna lose my job.
- 899
- 00:52:05,144 --> 00:52:06,812
- Screw your job, man.
- 900
- 00:52:06,814 --> 00:52:08,345
- You've probably been
- sitting behind this desk
- 901
- 00:52:08,347 --> 00:52:09,780
- - for 25 fucking years.
- - Mr. Callahan,
- 902
- 00:52:09,782 --> 00:52:10,881
- - get out.
- - You have a miserable life.
- 903
- 00:52:10,883 --> 00:52:12,050
- - Be a man!
- - Get out.
- 904
- 00:52:12,052 --> 00:52:14,021
- Aw, go fuck yourself.
- 905
- 00:52:30,503 --> 00:52:33,140
- Maybe it's your battery
- or a connection or something.
- 906
- 00:52:34,108 --> 00:52:36,207
- There you are.
- 907
- 00:52:36,209 --> 00:52:38,175
- - Could you spare a quarter?
- - Yeah.
- 908
- 00:52:38,177 --> 00:52:41,113
- 234...
- 909
- 00:52:41,115 --> 00:52:43,217
- 2459.
- 910
- 00:52:45,151 --> 00:52:46,151
- Here you go.
- 911
- 00:52:46,153 --> 00:52:47,818
- Thank you, sir.
- 912
- 00:52:47,820 --> 00:52:49,454
- You bet.
- 913
- 00:52:49,456 --> 00:52:51,055
- Disability Resource Center.
- 914
- 00:52:51,057 --> 00:52:52,157
- Hey, it's John.
- 915
- 00:52:52,159 --> 00:52:54,191
- Just a moment.
- 916
- 00:52:55,461 --> 00:52:56,794
- This is Suzanne.
- 917
- 00:52:56,796 --> 00:52:59,700
- Hey, Suzanne. It's John.
- 918
- 00:53:00,767 --> 00:53:02,399
- My chair broke down.
- 919
- 00:53:02,401 --> 00:53:05,003
- - Could somebody come down here to help me?
- - John?
- 920
- 00:53:05,005 --> 00:53:06,805
- John, this is the third time
- 921
- 00:53:06,807 --> 00:53:08,173
- in a couple of months
- this has happened.
- 922
- 00:53:08,175 --> 00:53:09,508
- You know, we have cutbacks
- 923
- 00:53:09,510 --> 00:53:11,209
- ever since the
- new president came in.
- 924
- 00:53:11,211 --> 00:53:13,879
- - We have our own problems.
- - Oh, please don't start.
- 925
- 00:53:13,881 --> 00:53:16,013
- Please don't start.
- Suzanne...
- 926
- 00:53:16,015 --> 00:53:18,850
- John, I'm sorry,
- I do not make the rules.
- 927
- 00:53:18,852 --> 00:53:20,852
- What did I do to you?
- 928
- 00:53:20,854 --> 00:53:23,120
- What did I do
- to piss you off so much?!
- 929
- 00:53:23,122 --> 00:53:24,990
- - Why you got to treat me like this?
- - You know,
- 930
- 00:53:24,992 --> 00:53:27,091
- I hear you're putting a lot
- more mileage on that wheelchair
- 931
- 00:53:27,093 --> 00:53:28,260
- than the average quadriplegic.
- 932
- 00:53:28,262 --> 00:53:30,227
- Yeah, because
- I'm an active worker!
- 933
- 00:53:30,229 --> 00:53:32,863
- I'm not a fucking
- nursing home vegetable!
- 934
- 00:53:32,865 --> 00:53:35,100
- So I'm just asking for
- a little bit of goddamn help!
- 935
- 00:53:35,102 --> 00:53:36,901
- - Take care, John.
- - Suzanne,
- 936
- 00:53:36,903 --> 00:53:39,070
- please, please,
- I fucking beg you.
- 937
- 00:53:39,072 --> 00:53:41,506
- - I ask for forgiveness!
- - Take care of yourself, please.
- 938
- 00:53:41,508 --> 00:53:42,843
- Please, please!
- 939
- 00:53:53,586 --> 00:53:55,519
- One of
- the objectives of group
- 940
- 00:53:55,521 --> 00:53:58,957
- is to provoke a new awareness
- to unwanted
- 941
- 00:53:58,959 --> 00:54:03,128
- or unnecessary emotional
- problems that we sit with.
- 942
- 00:54:03,130 --> 00:54:04,963
- And left unprovoked,
- 943
- 00:54:04,965 --> 00:54:07,032
- we sit alone
- with these problems,
- 944
- 00:54:07,034 --> 00:54:10,901
- and they can fester into...
- drinking habits,
- 945
- 00:54:10,903 --> 00:54:13,171
- drug habits, gambling.
- 946
- 00:54:13,173 --> 00:54:15,573
- Other bad habits.
- 947
- 00:54:15,575 --> 00:54:17,142
- What are "other bad habits"?
- 948
- 00:54:17,144 --> 00:54:19,044
- I mean, it could be anything.
- 949
- 00:54:19,046 --> 00:54:22,613
- It could be hoarding,
- bank robbing, suicide.
- 950
- 00:54:22,615 --> 00:54:24,182
- It happens, amiga.
- 951
- 00:54:24,184 --> 00:54:25,916
- Mike.
- 952
- 00:54:25,918 --> 00:54:28,253
- Why don't you tell us
- your story.
- 953
- 00:54:28,255 --> 00:54:30,588
- Talk about your employment;
- start from the beginning.
- 954
- 00:54:30,590 --> 00:54:32,090
- What was the name
- of the company?
- 955
- 00:54:32,092 --> 00:54:33,624
- Uh...
- 956
- 00:54:33,626 --> 00:54:36,894
- Burnside Exploratory
- Systems Technology.
- 957
- 00:54:36,896 --> 00:54:38,629
- And we called it BEST
- for short.
- 958
- 00:54:38,631 --> 00:54:40,599
- I, uh...
- 959
- 00:54:40,601 --> 00:54:44,501
- had an administrator there
- I didn't care for very much.
- 960
- 00:54:44,503 --> 00:54:46,271
- Once a war going on,
- and she didn't care
- 961
- 00:54:46,273 --> 00:54:48,173
- whether we were winning
- or losing when I worked there,
- 962
- 00:54:48,175 --> 00:54:49,908
- and we were handed
- a lot of bullshit.
- 963
- 00:54:49,910 --> 00:54:51,609
- Slow down, Mike. Y-You...
- 964
- 00:54:51,611 --> 00:54:55,046
- - "She," meaning your administrator?
- - Yeah.
- 965
- 00:54:55,048 --> 00:54:56,981
- Yeah, and she...
- 966
- 00:54:56,983 --> 00:55:01,051
- would just keep to herself
- up in her cubicle.
- 967
- 00:55:01,053 --> 00:55:02,954
- Then we'd hear
- her prerecorded voice
- 968
- 00:55:02,956 --> 00:55:04,655
- come over the loudspeaker.
- 969
- 00:55:04,657 --> 00:55:08,158
- Can you tell us a little bit
- about this administrator?
- 970
- 00:55:08,160 --> 00:55:10,294
- Yeah.
- Yeah, well, first the sentry
- 971
- 00:55:10,296 --> 00:55:12,963
- in our, uh, attack unit was...
- 972
- 00:55:12,965 --> 00:55:14,901
- Uh, fuck.
- 973
- 00:55:15,968 --> 00:55:17,669
- I'm sorry, Donnie, can we, uh,
- 974
- 00:55:17,671 --> 00:55:19,336
- can we talk about
- something else?
- 975
- 00:55:19,338 --> 00:55:20,638
- No.
- 976
- 00:55:20,640 --> 00:55:22,173
- How did she make you feel?
- 977
- 00:55:22,175 --> 00:55:24,209
- Well, we were like family.
- akumenang.com
- 978
- 00:55:24,211 --> 00:55:26,912
- You know, you spend enough time
- with your family, you...
- 979
- 00:55:26,914 --> 00:55:29,981
- end up wanting to strangle
- your mom, you know?
- 980
- 00:55:29,983 --> 00:55:31,349
- May I ask something?
- 981
- 00:55:31,351 --> 00:55:33,117
- Go ahead, Corky.
- 982
- 00:55:33,119 --> 00:55:35,255
- Were there any women
- in your operation?
- 983
- 00:55:36,222 --> 00:55:37,622
- Yeah.
- 984
- 00:55:37,624 --> 00:55:39,894
- The administrator,
- but we never saw her.
- 985
- 00:55:41,160 --> 00:55:44,562
- I'm curious why there's a lack
- of women in your stories.
- 986
- 00:55:44,564 --> 00:55:48,566
- In your childhood, growing up,
- 987
- 00:55:48,568 --> 00:55:50,334
- in your company.
- 988
- 00:55:50,336 --> 00:55:54,041
- There must have been women
- in your command unit.
- 989
- 00:55:57,311 --> 00:55:59,176
- Because women
- can't handle it over there!
- 990
- 00:55:59,178 --> 00:56:01,079
- - Hey! Hey!
- - Okay? Let me tell you,
- 991
- 00:56:01,081 --> 00:56:02,713
- - neither of you would've
- - Hey!
- 992
- 00:56:02,715 --> 00:56:04,182
- - lasted two fucking seconds over there!
- - Hey!
- 993
- 00:56:04,184 --> 00:56:07,619
- - Mike, hey! Hey.
- - Mike. Mike.
- 994
- 00:56:07,621 --> 00:56:09,220
- - This is group.
- - Yeah.
- 995
- 00:56:09,222 --> 00:56:11,289
- Martingale, sit down.
- Mike, sit down,
- 996
- 00:56:11,291 --> 00:56:13,158
- or you'll be thrown
- out of the group.
- 997
- 00:56:13,160 --> 00:56:16,093
- I'm sorry.
- 998
- 00:56:16,095 --> 00:56:18,729
- - You all take this so seriously.
- - I'm sorry, Donnie.
- 999
- 00:56:18,731 --> 00:56:20,731
- If you just went down
- to Saint Luke's Church
- 1000
- 00:56:20,733 --> 00:56:23,200
- on Sunday services, I'm pretty
- sure you'd be able to find
- 1001
- 00:56:23,202 --> 00:56:25,135
- the salvation
- that you're looking for.
- 1002
- 00:56:25,137 --> 00:56:27,305
- Tim, you are very fucking cute.
- 1003
- 00:56:27,307 --> 00:56:30,611
- Now shut the fuck up,
- 'cause no one asked you, okay?
- 1004
- 00:56:32,111 --> 00:56:34,178
- Everyone, breathe.
- 1005
- 00:56:34,180 --> 00:56:35,650
- Mike, you okay?
- 1006
- 00:56:37,084 --> 00:56:38,383
- Tim, you think you can
- pull my pants down
- 1007
- 00:56:38,385 --> 00:56:40,621
- so I don't have to speak
- through my fucking fly?
- 1008
- 00:56:46,727 --> 00:56:49,096
- There you go, buddy.
- 1009
- 00:56:53,332 --> 00:56:56,001
- Hey, you forgot to open the bottle!
- 1010
- 00:56:56,003 --> 00:56:57,669
- Tim!
- 1011
- 00:56:57,671 --> 00:57:00,107
- Don't lock the door! Tim!
- 1012
- 00:57:11,651 --> 00:57:13,287
- Oh, fuck.
- 1013
- 00:57:15,689 --> 00:57:17,321
- Bet you could open
- this bottle, Snickers.
- 1014
- 00:57:17,323 --> 00:57:20,057
- Fuck.
- 1015
- 00:57:20,059 --> 00:57:22,262
- No!
- 1016
- 00:57:24,664 --> 00:57:26,133
- Oh, fuck.
- 1017
- 00:57:46,820 --> 00:57:49,490
- Fuck. Fuck.
- 1018
- 00:57:53,727 --> 00:57:55,463
- Fuck!
- 1019
- 00:58:22,856 --> 00:58:24,792
- Oh.
- 1020
- 00:58:29,796 --> 00:58:32,533
- Oh, God, you son of a bitch.
- 1021
- 00:59:18,410 --> 00:59:22,082
- Please, please,
- please, please, please.
- 1022
- 01:00:09,829 --> 01:00:11,298
- Snickers!
- 1023
- 01:00:27,514 --> 01:00:29,550
- Mom.
- 1024
- 01:00:35,889 --> 01:00:38,159
- Where are you?
- 1025
- 01:00:39,892 --> 01:00:41,992
- You fucker.
- 1026
- 01:00:41,994 --> 01:00:44,230
- You tart.
- 1027
- 01:00:47,666 --> 01:00:50,336
- You left me here.
- 1028
- 01:00:52,372 --> 01:00:54,842
- I'm a cripple.
- 1029
- 01:00:57,711 --> 01:01:00,481
- Where are you?
- 1030
- 01:01:19,633 --> 01:01:22,503
- You are a good person, John.
- 1031
- 01:01:24,970 --> 01:01:27,972
- You can help yourself.
- 1032
- 01:01:27,974 --> 01:01:29,640
- You can stop drinking,
- 1033
- 01:01:29,642 --> 01:01:34,379
- and you can become
- happy and healthy.
- 1034
- 01:01:34,381 --> 01:01:36,580
- I know you're calling for me.
- 1035
- 01:01:36,582 --> 01:01:38,651
- I love you.
- 1036
- 01:01:42,454 --> 01:01:45,390
- Just please
- don't call me a tart.
- 1037
- 01:01:57,003 --> 01:01:59,240
- Hi, Tim.
- 1038
- 01:02:00,439 --> 01:02:02,307
- Something...
- 1039
- 01:02:02,309 --> 01:02:05,713
- really profound
- just happened to me, man.
- 1040
- 01:02:07,347 --> 01:02:09,546
- Yeah, that's, uh...
- 1041
- 01:02:09,548 --> 01:02:11,349
- that's great.
- 1042
- 01:02:11,351 --> 01:02:13,684
- I don't think
- I'm gonna drink anymore.
- 1043
- 01:02:13,686 --> 01:02:16,289
- You mind if I have
- some of these cookies?
- 1044
- 01:02:18,691 --> 01:02:20,358
- Can I?
- 1045
- 01:02:20,360 --> 01:02:21,693
- Yeah, man.
- 1046
- 01:02:21,695 --> 01:02:23,428
- - Knock yourself out.
- - Thank you.
- 1047
- 01:02:23,430 --> 01:02:25,363
- What the fuck happened in here?
- It's a wreck.
- 1048
- 01:02:25,365 --> 01:02:26,798
- What... where's Snickers?
- 1049
- 01:02:26,800 --> 01:02:28,432
- I mean,
- there's really no reason
- 1050
- 01:02:28,434 --> 01:02:30,568
- why you should believe me.
- 1051
- 01:02:33,006 --> 01:02:35,372
- Donnie, why do you
- call them piglets?
- 1052
- 01:02:35,374 --> 01:02:38,041
- 'Cause I'm a triple Aries,
- Callahan.
- 1053
- 01:02:38,043 --> 01:02:40,046
- And 'cause they let me.
- 1054
- 01:02:42,048 --> 01:02:43,580
- See you.
- 1055
- 01:02:43,582 --> 01:02:46,350
- And 'cause a piglet
- is a small, timid animal
- 1056
- 01:02:46,352 --> 01:02:47,651
- who tries to be brave
- 1057
- 01:02:47,653 --> 01:02:50,120
- and occasionally
- conquers his fears.
- 1058
- 01:02:50,122 --> 01:02:52,055
- Look, there's just four things:
- 1059
- 01:02:52,057 --> 01:02:54,358
- keep going to meetings;
- read this book I'm giving you;
- 1060
- 01:02:54,360 --> 01:02:57,028
- don't drink; and if you think
- you're gonna drink,
- 1061
- 01:02:57,030 --> 01:02:59,300
- call me first, never after.
- 1062
- 01:03:41,073 --> 01:03:42,874
- Last two weeks,
- 1063
- 01:03:42,876 --> 01:03:47,044
- we were talking about
- art and craft.
- 1064
- 01:03:47,046 --> 01:03:48,678
- All art has craft.
- 1065
- 01:03:48,680 --> 01:03:51,048
- All craft has art.
- 1066
- 01:03:51,050 --> 01:03:55,553
- But craft seeks
- full perfection.
- 1067
- 01:03:55,555 --> 01:03:58,423
- And art seeks full expression.
- 1068
- 01:03:58,425 --> 01:04:00,725
- That's why...
- 1069
- 01:04:00,727 --> 01:04:04,162
- the craftsman's job is
- every time always the same.
- 1070
- 01:04:04,164 --> 01:04:05,733
- Repeat every time.
- 1071
- 01:04:08,668 --> 01:04:12,106
- That's why we don't have
- two "Mona Lisa."
- 1072
- 01:04:14,840 --> 01:04:18,508
- And "Mona Lisa,"
- by the way, one can say
- 1073
- 01:04:18,510 --> 01:04:19,843
- is a controlled accident.
- 1074
- 01:04:19,845 --> 01:04:21,678
- While working through the steps
- 1075
- 01:04:21,680 --> 01:04:23,146
- of the fellowship,
- 1076
- 01:04:23,148 --> 01:04:26,818
- I began to feel
- a huge rush of energy.
- 1077
- 01:04:26,820 --> 01:04:30,454
- I suddenly realized
- that I had been,
- 1078
- 01:04:30,456 --> 01:04:32,155
- or should have been,
- 1079
- 01:04:32,157 --> 01:04:35,094
- a cartoonist, a gagman,
- all along.
- 1080
- 01:05:47,233 --> 01:05:49,236
- - Here you go.
- - Thanks.
- 1081
- 01:06:22,235 --> 01:06:24,602
- I refer to my higher power
- as Chucky,
- 1082
- 01:06:24,604 --> 01:06:26,336
- when the word "God"
- doesn't suffice.
- 1083
- 01:06:26,338 --> 01:06:29,573
- You know, like the character
- from the horror movie.
- 1084
- 01:06:29,575 --> 01:06:33,843
- Not because I'm terrified
- of my higher power.
- 1085
- 01:06:33,845 --> 01:06:39,249
- It's 'cause I find my
- higher power is unpredictable.
- 1086
- 01:06:39,251 --> 01:06:42,986
- The thing for you to grasp,
- my little piglets,
- 1087
- 01:06:42,988 --> 01:06:45,622
- is that we don't control
- the universe.
- 1088
- 01:06:45,624 --> 01:06:49,026
- And, in fact,
- it will go on in our absence.
- 1089
- 01:06:49,028 --> 01:06:50,894
- We can't ask for help
- 1090
- 01:06:50,896 --> 01:06:53,263
- if we don't think there's
- anyone out there to give it.
- 1091
- 01:06:53,265 --> 01:06:56,033
- You have to grasp this concept.
- 1092
- 01:06:56,035 --> 01:06:59,035
- And that doesn't have to be
- fucking Jesus Christ
- 1093
- 01:06:59,037 --> 01:07:01,305
- or Buddha or Vanna White.
- 1094
- 01:07:01,307 --> 01:07:04,774
- So, can I choose the genitalia
- of Raquel Welch?
- 1095
- 01:07:04,776 --> 01:07:07,044
- I would advise against that,
- Callahan.
- 1096
- 01:07:07,046 --> 01:07:08,345
- Why?
- 1097
- 01:07:08,347 --> 01:07:10,814
- 'Cause it's not a fucking joke.
- 1098
- 01:07:10,816 --> 01:07:12,850
- If you can't look
- outside yourself
- 1099
- 01:07:12,852 --> 01:07:15,889
- and you can't find
- a higher power, you're fucked.
- 1100
- 01:07:17,724 --> 01:07:19,055
- - Yeah.
- - Thanks, Donnie.
- 1101
- 01:07:19,057 --> 01:07:20,925
- - Of course.
- - See you, John.
- 1102
- 01:07:20,927 --> 01:07:23,361
- - Bye, John.
- - Bye, Hans.
- 1103
- 01:07:23,363 --> 01:07:26,062
- Beat yourself
- with a feather, not a bat.
- 1104
- 01:07:28,267 --> 01:07:30,003
- Be outside.
- I'm gonna have a smoke.
- 1105
- 01:07:31,671 --> 01:07:33,269
- Don't linger
- too long on belief.
- 1106
- 01:07:33,271 --> 01:07:34,738
- Just jump in, do the work.
- 1107
- 01:07:34,740 --> 01:07:37,408
- Trust God. Clean house.
- 1108
- 01:07:37,410 --> 01:07:38,979
- Take this book.
- 1109
- 01:07:40,079 --> 01:07:42,379
- Lao-Tzu. Check it out.
- 1110
- 01:07:42,381 --> 01:07:45,686
- There's some valuable
- proverbs in there.
- 1111
- 01:07:47,387 --> 01:07:49,022
- 'Kay.
- 1112
- 01:07:50,356 --> 01:07:52,390
- Um, you need any information?
- 1113
- 01:07:52,392 --> 01:07:55,091
- Yeah, can you take a look
- at this cartoon for me?
- 1114
- 01:07:55,093 --> 01:07:57,727
- - Give me your thoughts.
- - Yeah, let me...
- 1115
- 01:07:57,729 --> 01:07:59,729
- Let's see.
- 1116
- 01:08:03,403 --> 01:08:05,301
- Mm.
- 1117
- 01:08:05,303 --> 01:08:07,405
- - It's pretty good. Pretty...
- - I can tell you don't like it.
- 1118
- 01:08:07,407 --> 01:08:09,707
- Here, look at another one.
- 1119
- 01:08:11,376 --> 01:08:12,979
- Let's see.
- 1120
- 01:08:21,420 --> 01:08:22,752
- You like that.
- 1121
- 01:08:22,754 --> 01:08:24,020
- - Yeah.
- - Okay.
- 1122
- 01:08:24,022 --> 01:08:25,722
- That's good.
- 1123
- 01:08:25,724 --> 01:08:27,757
- - Yeah, that's one of my favorites.
- - Yeah.
- 1124
- 01:08:27,759 --> 01:08:30,394
- - Aw, thank you.
- - Very good.
- 1125
- 01:08:30,396 --> 01:08:32,666
- Hey. Annu?
- 1126
- 01:08:34,166 --> 01:08:36,335
- - John?
- - Is that you?
- 1127
- 01:08:37,469 --> 01:08:40,904
- Look at you.
- 1128
- 01:08:40,906 --> 01:08:43,039
- You're looking very handsome.
- 1129
- 01:08:43,041 --> 01:08:44,341
- Oh.
- 1130
- 01:08:44,343 --> 01:08:46,142
- How have you been?
- 1131
- 01:08:46,144 --> 01:08:47,778
- Good. I mean...
- 1132
- 01:08:47,780 --> 01:08:49,180
- God, you look beautiful.
- 1133
- 01:08:49,182 --> 01:08:51,148
- What-what is this?
- 1134
- 01:08:51,150 --> 01:08:53,450
- Oh, I have a new job now.
- I work for Air Scandinavia.
- 1135
- 01:08:53,452 --> 01:08:56,352
- Wow, "Air Scandi-nah-via."
- 1136
- 01:08:56,354 --> 01:08:57,855
- Really something.
- 1137
- 01:08:57,857 --> 01:08:59,390
- - Yeah?
- - Yeah.
- 1138
- 01:08:59,392 --> 01:09:01,825
- I was promoted.
- I'm group captain now.
- 1139
- 01:09:01,827 --> 01:09:03,493
- - Group captain.
- - Mm.
- 1140
- 01:09:03,495 --> 01:09:05,829
- Wow, yeah, so you're just up
- in, uh, first class
- 1141
- 01:09:05,831 --> 01:09:08,364
- - with all the hot businessmen?
- - Yeah.
- 1142
- 01:09:08,366 --> 01:09:09,967
- - Yeah.
- - But I don't really like them.
- 1143
- 01:09:09,969 --> 01:09:12,102
- Are-are you...
- are you flying out?
- 1144
- 01:09:12,104 --> 01:09:13,870
- Are you in town for a while?
- 1145
- 01:09:13,872 --> 01:09:15,138
- Do you, do you want to
- get something to eat?
- 1146
- 01:09:15,140 --> 01:09:16,841
- Yeah, I'm on layover.
- 1147
- 01:09:16,843 --> 01:09:18,508
- - Really?
- - That'd be really nice.
- 1148
- 01:09:18,510 --> 01:09:22,178
- Yeah, well, let's find a place
- to, you know...
- 1149
- 01:09:22,180 --> 01:09:24,418
- "layover."
- 1150
- 01:09:26,085 --> 01:09:27,418
- "Let me put it this way,
- 1151
- 01:09:27,420 --> 01:09:30,154
- don't buy
- any hacky sack balls."
- 1152
- 01:09:30,156 --> 01:09:31,821
- That's really funny.
- 1153
- 01:09:31,823 --> 01:09:33,390
- - It's you. Yeah?
- - Yeah.
- 1154
- 01:09:33,392 --> 01:09:35,059
- Wait, are you... you-you
- really think it's funny?
- 1155
- 01:09:35,061 --> 01:09:37,130
- - You sure?
- - Yeah.
- 1156
- 01:10:13,064 --> 01:10:15,067
- I'm gonna, I'm gonna come.
- 1157
- 01:10:17,236 --> 01:10:18,968
- I'm coming!
- 1158
- 01:10:18,970 --> 01:10:20,904
- - I'm coming!
- - Oh, Jesus!
- 1159
- 01:10:20,906 --> 01:10:23,106
- Oh! Jesus Christ! John, I'm...
- 1160
- 01:10:23,108 --> 01:10:25,909
- I'm so sorry.
- God, I am so sorry.
- 1161
- 01:10:29,080 --> 01:10:30,513
- You have to promise
- 1162
- 01:10:30,515 --> 01:10:32,882
- that Tim will walk in
- to serve breakfast
- 1163
- 01:10:32,884 --> 01:10:34,885
- at the same time every morning.
- 1164
- 01:10:34,887 --> 01:10:36,220
- Okay.
- 1165
- 01:11:28,139 --> 01:11:30,341
- Donnie, I see gymnasts
- in the park.
- 1166
- 01:11:30,343 --> 01:11:34,511
- Mm. Maybe they're preparing
- for the Olympics next year.
- 1167
- 01:11:34,513 --> 01:11:36,247
- I'm fucking serious.
- 1168
- 01:11:36,249 --> 01:11:38,582
- I've been seeing them
- since my physical recovery.
- 1169
- 01:11:38,584 --> 01:11:41,185
- Oh, maybe
- they're manifestations
- 1170
- 01:11:41,187 --> 01:11:42,619
- of your sobriety.
- 1171
- 01:11:42,621 --> 01:11:44,888
- We first saw them
- in the emergency ward.
- 1172
- 01:11:44,890 --> 01:11:47,291
- Maybe they're sticking around
- to get what they want.
- 1173
- 01:11:47,293 --> 01:11:49,627
- Well, what the fuck
- do they want?
- 1174
- 01:11:49,629 --> 01:11:51,928
- For you to come with them.
- 1175
- 01:11:51,930 --> 01:11:54,565
- Yeah. Where to?
- 1176
- 01:11:54,567 --> 01:11:57,901
- 'Cause they're waving to me,
- you know?
- 1177
- 01:11:57,903 --> 01:11:59,602
- To the big park in the sky.
- 1178
- 01:11:59,604 --> 01:12:02,006
- They could be calling
- from the other side.
- 1179
- 01:12:02,008 --> 01:12:04,275
- Yeah, that's
- what I'm afraid of.
- 1180
- 01:12:04,277 --> 01:12:06,910
- I don't want to go
- to the park in the sky.
- 1181
- 01:12:06,912 --> 01:12:09,646
- Callahan, don't obsess
- over the gymnasts.
- 1182
- 01:12:09,648 --> 01:12:12,548
- Go to meetings, don't drink,
- read the book.
- 1183
- 01:12:12,550 --> 01:12:14,685
- That's all
- you have to focus on.
- 1184
- 01:12:14,687 --> 01:12:16,986
- And you have to work on
- the second step.
- 1185
- 01:12:16,988 --> 01:12:19,222
- Like, you have to believe that
- a power greater than yourself
- 1186
- 01:12:19,224 --> 01:12:21,894
- can restore you to sanity.
- 1187
- 01:12:22,661 --> 01:12:25,229
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1188
- 01:12:25,231 --> 01:12:27,096
- I know, I know, I know.
- 1189
- 01:12:27,098 --> 01:12:30,935
- And besides, how are you gonna
- do gymnastics anyway, Callahan?
- 1190
- 01:12:32,638 --> 01:12:35,138
- - Honestly.
- - Oh, that's so funny.
- 1191
- 01:12:35,140 --> 01:12:37,675
- Oh, tomorrow
- I fly to New York City
- 1192
- 01:12:37,677 --> 01:12:39,275
- to get my boogie on.
- 1193
- 01:12:39,277 --> 01:12:41,244
- Yeah, good for you, man.
- 1194
- 01:12:41,246 --> 01:12:43,579
- - You deserve it.
- - Thank you.
- 1195
- 01:12:43,581 --> 01:12:46,984
- So, will I be able
- to reach you, though?
- 1196
- 01:12:51,323 --> 01:12:53,157
- You drew this?
- 1197
- 01:12:53,159 --> 01:12:54,591
- Yeah. Oh, which one's that?
- I mean, yeah,
- 1198
- 01:12:54,593 --> 01:12:57,026
- I drew 'em all, but...
- Oh, yeah. That's my dad.
- 1199
- 01:12:58,263 --> 01:13:01,164
- This is good stuff, man.
- This is really great.
- 1200
- 01:13:03,035 --> 01:13:04,400
- So...?
- 1201
- 01:13:04,402 --> 01:13:06,636
- You got it, man.
- We'd like to give you a panel.
- 1202
- 01:13:06,638 --> 01:13:08,073
- Really?
- 1203
- 01:13:16,348 --> 01:13:19,052
- Hey, Officer,
- take a look at this.
- 1204
- 01:13:24,089 --> 01:13:25,321
- Very nice.
- 1205
- 01:13:25,323 --> 01:13:27,291
- Very nice, right?
- Thank you.
- 1206
- 01:13:27,293 --> 01:13:29,325
- - Hey.
- - Hey, John. How are you, hon?
- 1207
- 01:13:29,327 --> 01:13:31,361
- Really good.
- Take a look at this.
- 1208
- 01:13:31,363 --> 01:13:33,133
- What you got?
- 1209
- 01:13:34,733 --> 01:13:38,103
- Oh, hon. Lisa, look-it,
- John's in the "Vanguard."
- 1210
- 01:13:40,071 --> 01:13:42,138
- Hmm.
- 1211
- 01:13:44,442 --> 01:13:46,979
- - Thank you.
- - I like the shading.
- 1212
- 01:13:47,746 --> 01:13:49,312
- Okay.
- 1213
- 01:13:49,314 --> 01:13:51,414
- You want to see?
- Look, puppy, look at that.
- 1214
- 01:13:51,416 --> 01:13:53,085
- - You drew that?
- - Yeah.
- 1215
- 01:13:58,023 --> 01:14:00,123
- That's offensive.
- 1216
- 01:14:00,125 --> 01:14:01,994
- Offensive?
- 1217
- 01:14:05,130 --> 01:14:07,131
- Hey, some fellow artists.
- 1218
- 01:14:07,133 --> 01:14:09,132
- Check this out.
- Look at this.
- 1219
- 01:14:09,134 --> 01:14:10,467
- No, I'm not trying
- to sell you anything.
- 1220
- 01:14:10,469 --> 01:14:12,302
- I just want you to look at...
- 1221
- 01:14:12,304 --> 01:14:15,271
- They published my cartoon,
- you fuckers!
- 1222
- 01:14:19,245 --> 01:14:21,481
- ? Shake it, shake it ?
- 1223
- 01:14:26,786 --> 01:14:29,218
- ? Shake it, shake it ?
- 1224
- 01:14:29,220 --> 01:14:30,820
- ? Groovin' loose ?
- 1225
- 01:14:30,822 --> 01:14:32,722
- ? Or heart to heart ?
- 1226
- 01:14:32,724 --> 01:14:36,427
- ? We put in motion
- every single part ?
- 1227
- 01:14:36,429 --> 01:14:39,395
- ? Funky sounds, wall to wall ?
- 1228
- 01:14:39,397 --> 01:14:43,434
- ? We're bumpin' booties,
- having us a ball, y'all ?
- 1229
- 01:14:43,436 --> 01:14:45,235
- ? Shake your groove thing ?
- 1230
- 01:14:45,237 --> 01:14:46,703
- ? Shake your groove thing ?
- 1231
- 01:14:46,705 --> 01:14:49,338
- ? Yeah, yeah... ?
- 1232
- 01:14:49,340 --> 01:14:51,275
- Hello?
- 1233
- 01:14:51,277 --> 01:14:53,310
- I just can't fucking do this.
- 1234
- 01:14:53,312 --> 01:14:55,812
- I'm gonna kill Tim.
- I'm gonna kill my attendant.
- 1235
- 01:14:55,814 --> 01:14:57,847
- You know, Callahan,
- you can't ask for help
- 1236
- 01:14:57,849 --> 01:15:01,284
- if you don't think there's
- anyone out there to give it.
- 1237
- 01:15:01,286 --> 01:15:03,220
- Yeah, I'm asking you
- for help, Donnie.
- 1238
- 01:15:03,222 --> 01:15:05,788
- - That's why I'm calling you.
- - Well, tough shit.
- 1239
- 01:15:05,790 --> 01:15:08,358
- Donnie's on a plane to
- New York City in half an hour.
- 1240
- 01:15:08,360 --> 01:15:11,127
- And I'm not gonna
- be back till Monday.
- 1241
- 01:15:11,129 --> 01:15:13,363
- There's this new gay disco
- there called The Saint,
- 1242
- 01:15:13,365 --> 01:15:15,364
- and I'm gonna be having
- the time of my life
- 1243
- 01:15:15,366 --> 01:15:17,266
- with Howard Rosenman
- and Andy Warhol,
- 1244
- 01:15:17,268 --> 01:15:19,269
- - getting discovered, so...
- - I don't give a fuck
- 1245
- 01:15:19,271 --> 01:15:21,370
- about your sex life, Donnie.
- 1246
- 01:15:21,372 --> 01:15:23,474
- Tell me what to do.
- 1247
- 01:15:23,476 --> 01:15:26,142
- What are the first three steps?
- 1248
- 01:15:26,144 --> 01:15:27,778
- Donnie, come on.
- 1249
- 01:15:27,780 --> 01:15:29,182
- That, one?
- 1250
- 01:15:30,316 --> 01:15:32,248
- One, that I'm powerless
- over alcohol
- 1251
- 01:15:32,250 --> 01:15:34,284
- and my life has
- become unmanageable.
- 1252
- 01:15:34,286 --> 01:15:36,352
- Two, I came to believe that
- a power greater than myself
- 1253
- 01:15:36,354 --> 01:15:38,288
- can restore me to sanity.
- 1254
- 01:15:38,290 --> 01:15:40,490
- And three, I made a decision
- to turn my will and my life
- 1255
- 01:15:40,492 --> 01:15:42,559
- over to the care of God,
- as I understand it.
- 1256
- 01:15:42,561 --> 01:15:45,162
- So you believe
- you're powerless?
- 1257
- 01:15:45,164 --> 01:15:46,797
- Yeah.
- 1258
- 01:15:46,799 --> 01:15:48,364
- You believe that a higher power
- 1259
- 01:15:48,366 --> 01:15:50,199
- other than yourself
- can restore you to sanity?
- 1260
- 01:15:50,201 --> 01:15:51,901
- Yes.
- 1261
- 01:15:51,903 --> 01:15:53,369
- And you made a decision
- to turn your will and life
- 1262
- 01:15:53,371 --> 01:15:55,271
- over to the care of God,
- as you understand him,
- 1263
- 01:15:55,273 --> 01:15:57,240
- in your case,
- Raquel Welch's snatch.
- 1264
- 01:15:57,242 --> 01:15:58,909
- And remember, this is
- a choice of higher power
- 1265
- 01:15:58,911 --> 01:16:00,144
- I don't approve of.
- 1266
- 01:16:00,146 --> 01:16:01,410
- - Yes.
- - Great.
- 1267
- 01:16:01,412 --> 01:16:03,146
- Now, wouldn't you like to turn
- 1268
- 01:16:03,148 --> 01:16:04,780
- this immediate problem
- over to Chucky?
- 1269
- 01:16:04,782 --> 01:16:06,249
- Yes.
- 1270
- 01:16:06,251 --> 01:16:08,287
- Don't you feel better already?
- 1271
- 01:16:11,389 --> 01:16:15,159
- Okay, yeah, but, Donnie,
- you tricked me.
- 1272
- 01:16:15,161 --> 01:16:16,260
- I know what you just did.
- 1273
- 01:16:16,262 --> 01:16:19,262
- No, Callahan, no. Fuck.
- 1274
- 01:16:19,264 --> 01:16:20,864
- Make a God basket.
- 1275
- 01:16:20,866 --> 01:16:23,199
- Write your problems
- on paper, crumple them up,
- 1276
- 01:16:23,201 --> 01:16:24,501
- and throw them into the basket.
- 1277
- 01:16:24,503 --> 01:16:26,840
- Drink water.
- 1278
- 01:16:30,308 --> 01:16:33,278
- I'm afraid.
- Who will protect me?
- 1279
- 01:16:42,220 --> 01:16:44,855
- Tim. Tim?
- 1280
- 01:16:44,857 --> 01:16:46,256
- Hey, man.
- 1281
- 01:16:46,258 --> 01:16:47,824
- Can you pick up
- that piece of paper
- 1282
- 01:16:47,826 --> 01:16:49,829
- and toss it in the God basket?
- 1283
- 01:16:56,902 --> 01:16:58,435
- Oh, yeah. Yeah.
- 1284
- 01:16:58,437 --> 01:17:00,369
- Hey, you know, this is
- actually pretty fun.
- 1285
- 01:17:00,371 --> 01:17:02,940
- John, as the editors
- 1286
- 01:17:02,942 --> 01:17:05,242
- of the Portland State
- "Vanguard,"
- 1287
- 01:17:05,244 --> 01:17:08,278
- some of us really
- enjoy your humor,
- 1288
- 01:17:08,280 --> 01:17:09,846
- but some of us are worried
- 1289
- 01:17:09,848 --> 01:17:12,252
- that things might have
- gone too far.
- 1290
- 01:17:13,585 --> 01:17:16,619
- We have 55 letters here
- from the student body
- 1291
- 01:17:16,621 --> 01:17:18,888
- complaining about
- your cartoons.
- 1292
- 01:17:18,890 --> 01:17:22,258
- "Mr. Callahan, I am appalled
- by your simplistic scribbling,
- 1293
- 01:17:22,260 --> 01:17:24,427
- your misinformed ideas
- about humor,
- 1294
- 01:17:24,429 --> 01:17:26,363
- and the audacity you have..."
- 1295
- 01:17:26,365 --> 01:17:28,297
- - That's real?
- - "...to think the public enjoys your work."
- 1296
- 01:17:28,299 --> 01:17:30,234
- Yes. It's from
- Woodburn, Oregon.
- 1297
- 01:17:30,236 --> 01:17:32,002
- We have many of them.
- 1298
- 01:17:32,004 --> 01:17:33,869
- All right, look, guys,
- 1299
- 01:17:33,871 --> 01:17:36,340
- I-I know that people have
- come by the editorial offices
- 1300
- 01:17:36,342 --> 01:17:38,374
- to register complaints
- about me...
- 1301
- 01:17:38,376 --> 01:17:39,642
- Christians, queers, teachers,
- 1302
- 01:17:39,644 --> 01:17:41,611
- foreign nationals,
- janitors, lab rats
- 1303
- 01:17:41,613 --> 01:17:45,449
- all find me offensive,
- which, uh, you know...
- 1304
- 01:17:45,451 --> 01:17:47,918
- It's a good...
- Is it a good thing?
- 1305
- 01:17:47,920 --> 01:17:49,886
- We have a small pile
- of threats.
- 1306
- 01:17:49,888 --> 01:17:51,922
- There's one here
- from the "Willamette Week."
- 1307
- 01:17:51,924 --> 01:17:54,358
- John, this is, frankly, shocking.
- 1308
- 01:17:54,360 --> 01:17:57,927
- What, the paper that
- Gary Larson draws cartoons for?
- 1309
- 01:17:57,929 --> 01:18:01,398
- Yes. And they would
- like to give you
- 1310
- 01:18:01,400 --> 01:18:03,333
- your own series.
- 1311
- 01:18:03,335 --> 01:18:05,401
- We think that's
- going too far.
- 1312
- 01:18:05,403 --> 01:18:06,569
- Are you serious?
- 1313
- 01:18:06,571 --> 01:18:08,271
- Uh...
- 1314
- 01:18:08,273 --> 01:18:09,405
- Can we get a mop?
- Can we get a mop?
- 1315
- 01:18:09,407 --> 01:18:10,673
- - What happened?
- - Oh. - Oh.
- 1316
- 01:18:10,675 --> 01:18:12,376
- - Grab a mop, please.
- - Uh...
- 1317
- 01:18:12,378 --> 01:18:14,011
- Mop?
- 1318
- 01:18:14,013 --> 01:18:15,712
- Wait, well,
- don't do it with the...
- 1319
- 01:18:15,714 --> 01:18:18,414
- - Don't-don't put the urine in the picture.
- - Oh, yikes.
- 1320
- 01:18:18,416 --> 01:18:19,315
- They're publishing
- your cartoon.
- 1321
- 01:18:19,317 --> 01:18:20,950
- We're absolutely serious.
- 1322
- 01:18:20,952 --> 01:18:23,255
- - I thought you guys were playing with me.
- - No, no.
- 1323
- 01:18:24,455 --> 01:18:26,959
- In the Funny pile.
- 1324
- 01:18:28,294 --> 01:18:29,362
- No.
- 1325
- 01:18:32,298 --> 01:18:34,233
- Put this one for Annu.
- 1326
- 01:18:38,370 --> 01:18:40,273
- That's real funny.
- 1327
- 01:18:47,345 --> 01:18:49,281
- Why do you call it Chucky?
- 1328
- 01:18:50,316 --> 01:18:52,983
- Why not?
- 1329
- 01:18:52,985 --> 01:18:55,952
- You know, the day
- I stopped drinking...
- 1330
- 01:18:55,954 --> 01:18:58,355
- I felt a hand on my shoulder.
- 1331
- 01:18:58,357 --> 01:19:01,490
- But when I turned
- to look at it, there was...
- 1332
- 01:19:01,492 --> 01:19:04,463
- nothing there,
- but I didn't imagine it.
- 1333
- 01:19:07,633 --> 01:19:09,632
- "Look at it,
- but you cannot see it.
- 1334
- 01:19:09,634 --> 01:19:13,403
- Because it is formless,
- you call it invisible.
- 1335
- 01:19:13,405 --> 01:19:17,106
- Listen to it,
- but you cannot hear it.
- 1336
- 01:19:17,108 --> 01:19:20,377
- Because it is soundless,
- you call it inaudible.
- 1337
- 01:19:20,379 --> 01:19:22,712
- Grasp it, but it is
- out of your reach.
- 1338
- 01:19:22,714 --> 01:19:25,617
- Because it is subtle,
- you call it intangible."
- 1339
- 01:19:26,617 --> 01:19:28,517
- Uh, who's that?
- 1340
- 01:19:28,519 --> 01:19:31,053
- Is that Elton John?
- 1341
- 01:19:31,055 --> 01:19:32,588
- Lao-Tzu.
- 1342
- 01:19:32,590 --> 01:19:34,526
- Chucky.
- 1343
- 01:19:37,362 --> 01:19:39,395
- Oh, hubba, hubba, hubba.
- 1344
- 01:19:39,397 --> 01:19:41,433
- New heartthrob, Donnie?
- 1345
- 01:19:43,768 --> 01:19:45,401
- Oh, no, no.
- 1346
- 01:19:45,403 --> 01:19:47,372
- Pretty boy, small penis.
- 1347
- 01:19:48,139 --> 01:19:49,672
- Maybe you were weakened
- 1348
- 01:19:49,674 --> 01:19:51,475
- so you could
- become strong, Callahan.
- 1349
- 01:19:51,477 --> 01:19:53,313
- You ever think of it like that?
- 1350
- 01:19:56,048 --> 01:19:58,651
- Path to enlightenment
- is to know yourself.
- 1351
- 01:20:00,085 --> 01:20:01,688
- How do I know myself?
- 1352
- 01:20:03,455 --> 01:20:05,087
- Forget yourself.
- 1353
- 01:20:10,396 --> 01:20:12,628
- Oh, what'd the doctor say?
- 1354
- 01:20:12,630 --> 01:20:15,164
- I was gonna tell you about
- when I was in India.
- 1355
- 01:20:15,166 --> 01:20:17,501
- Just let me finish
- so I don't forget.
- 1356
- 01:20:17,503 --> 01:20:20,035
- I was driving north, to Bombay.
- 1357
- 01:20:20,037 --> 01:20:21,605
- I was meeting
- a group of teachers
- 1358
- 01:20:21,607 --> 01:20:22,806
- - at the Bombay Hilton...
- - Oh, yeah, no,
- 1359
- 01:20:22,808 --> 01:20:25,441
- you told me this story already.
- 1360
- 01:20:25,443 --> 01:20:26,176
- Have I?
- 1361
- 01:20:26,178 --> 01:20:27,511
- Yeah.
- 1362
- 01:20:27,513 --> 01:20:29,512
- With the girl beggar.
- 1363
- 01:20:29,514 --> 01:20:32,084
- I don't remember telling it.
- 1364
- 01:20:34,052 --> 01:20:35,655
- Donnie.
- 1365
- 01:20:37,423 --> 01:20:39,092
- What did the doctor say?
- 1366
- 01:20:46,531 --> 01:20:48,101
- I'm fucked.
- 1367
- 01:20:55,206 --> 01:20:57,075
- I need to drink more water.
- 1368
- 01:21:19,097 --> 01:21:22,168
- Mmm. That feels good.
- Thank you.
- 1369
- 01:21:27,473 --> 01:21:29,672
- "Dear Mr. Callahan,
- we regret to inform you
- 1370
- 01:21:29,674 --> 01:21:32,108
- that although your cartoon
- shows promise,
- 1371
- 01:21:32,110 --> 01:21:34,578
- it's not the caliber of work
- that we're used to
- 1372
- 01:21:34,580 --> 01:21:36,480
- at "The New Yorker."
- 1373
- 01:21:36,482 --> 01:21:38,481
- Thank you for your submission."
- 1374
- 01:21:38,483 --> 01:21:40,585
- Who reads "The New Yorker"?
- 1375
- 01:21:43,856 --> 01:21:46,756
- "Mr. Callahan, you should
- draw with your other hand
- 1376
- 01:21:46,758 --> 01:21:48,725
- or become a plumber."
- 1377
- 01:21:49,894 --> 01:21:51,761
- "Sincerely, Robert."
- 1378
- 01:21:51,763 --> 01:21:54,167
- Well, that's original.
- 1379
- 01:21:56,535 --> 01:21:59,502
- Hey...
- 1380
- 01:21:59,504 --> 01:22:01,837
- do you think the joke is better
- if I go with paramecium,
- 1381
- 01:22:01,839 --> 01:22:06,510
- dogfish, chimpanzee,
- Neanderthal, human?
- 1382
- 01:22:06,512 --> 01:22:08,677
- Or should it be...
- 1383
- 01:22:08,679 --> 01:22:12,516
- paramecium, trilobite,
- raptor, lemur,
- 1384
- 01:22:12,518 --> 01:22:15,584
- Neanderthal, human?
- 1385
- 01:22:15,586 --> 01:22:17,189
- I don't know.
- 1386
- 01:22:18,523 --> 01:22:20,559
- Let's put that
- in the Not Ready pile.
- 1387
- 01:22:36,607 --> 01:22:38,173
- Hello.
- 1388
- 01:22:38,175 --> 01:22:39,909
- John, can I come in?
- 1389
- 01:22:39,911 --> 01:22:41,944
- Suzanne.
- 1390
- 01:22:41,946 --> 01:22:43,279
- Hey.
- 1391
- 01:22:43,281 --> 01:22:44,983
- What a lovely surprise.
- 1392
- 01:22:49,287 --> 01:22:51,555
- Where'd you get the money
- for these posters?
- 1393
- 01:22:51,557 --> 01:22:52,689
- Friends, family.
- 1394
- 01:22:52,691 --> 01:22:54,224
- You got to write it down.
- 1395
- 01:22:54,226 --> 01:22:57,260
- You have to report it...
- any gift or donation.
- 1396
- 01:22:57,262 --> 01:22:58,828
- Well...
- 1397
- 01:22:58,830 --> 01:23:01,664
- I bummed a cigarette
- down at Old Town the other day.
- 1398
- 01:23:01,666 --> 01:23:03,766
- Should I report that, too?
- 1399
- 01:23:03,768 --> 01:23:05,569
- Mr. Callahan, I'm sorry.
- 1400
- 01:23:05,571 --> 01:23:06,936
- Do not make the rules.
- 1401
- 01:23:06,938 --> 01:23:08,738
- Simply trying
- to get you to understand
- 1402
- 01:23:08,740 --> 01:23:10,673
- the gravity of the situation;
- your cartoon earnings
- 1403
- 01:23:10,675 --> 01:23:12,708
- could force your benefits
- to be terminated.
- 1404
- 01:23:12,710 --> 01:23:14,778
- Well, h-how do I avoid that?
- 1405
- 01:23:14,780 --> 01:23:16,279
- I-I don't know.
- 1406
- 01:23:16,281 --> 01:23:19,849
- But, uh... it doesn't
- look good for you.
- 1407
- 01:23:19,851 --> 01:23:21,318
- Uh, who do I speak to
- 1408
- 01:23:21,320 --> 01:23:23,720
- about the specific
- regulations on this?
- 1409
- 01:23:23,722 --> 01:23:25,855
- I mean, how can I be penalized
- 1410
- 01:23:25,857 --> 01:23:29,258
- for making a little money
- this month?
- 1411
- 01:23:29,260 --> 01:23:31,328
- Mr. Callahan,
- we have reason to believe
- 1412
- 01:23:31,330 --> 01:23:33,629
- you're a bit of
- a shady character. Okay?
- 1413
- 01:23:33,631 --> 01:23:36,733
- I just don't want
- your benefits to be terminated.
- 1414
- 01:23:36,735 --> 01:23:39,602
- Every letter
- starts out the same way.
- 1415
- 01:23:39,604 --> 01:23:41,605
- It's always your fault.
- 1416
- 01:23:41,607 --> 01:23:44,608
- You know, I-I...
- I-I knew, um,
- 1417
- 01:23:44,610 --> 01:23:46,976
- a-a guy that was
- a former caseworker.
- 1418
- 01:23:46,978 --> 01:23:48,912
- He's since become a buddy.
- 1419
- 01:23:48,914 --> 01:23:53,650
- And he revealed to me
- that any assertive client
- 1420
- 01:23:53,652 --> 01:23:55,651
- was written up in his file
- 1421
- 01:23:55,653 --> 01:23:58,721
- as a fucking
- unstable troublemaker.
- 1422
- 01:23:58,723 --> 01:24:00,957
- You fucking believe that?
- 1423
- 01:24:00,959 --> 01:24:03,258
- An unstable troublemaker.
- 1424
- 01:24:04,729 --> 01:24:08,330
- John, this isn't
- the complaint department.
- 1425
- 01:24:08,332 --> 01:24:11,066
- We don't want to hear
- about your caseworkers.
- 1426
- 01:24:11,068 --> 01:24:13,837
- Tell your story,
- talk about yourself.
- 1427
- 01:24:13,839 --> 01:24:15,838
- Well, it is my life.
- 1428
- 01:24:15,840 --> 01:24:18,341
- I rely on them for everything.
- 1429
- 01:24:18,343 --> 01:24:20,075
- I don't, I don't know
- what you mean.
- 1430
- 01:24:20,077 --> 01:24:22,044
- What I mean is
- that what about them
- 1431
- 01:24:22,046 --> 01:24:24,948
- makes you complain?
- 1432
- 01:24:24,950 --> 01:24:27,751
- It's not about
- the counselor herself.
- 1433
- 01:24:27,753 --> 01:24:29,621
- Keep going.
- 1434
- 01:24:31,822 --> 01:24:33,823
- I mean, I can't walk.
- 1435
- 01:24:33,825 --> 01:24:35,358
- Why can't you walk?
- 1436
- 01:24:37,028 --> 01:24:38,727
- Because I was in an accident.
- 1437
- 01:24:38,729 --> 01:24:40,363
- Because?
- 1438
- 01:24:40,365 --> 01:24:43,900
- 'Cause the fucking asshole,
- Dexter,
- 1439
- 01:24:43,902 --> 01:24:46,403
- fell asleep
- at the fucking wheel.
- 1440
- 01:24:46,405 --> 01:24:48,104
- Why'd he do that?
- 1441
- 01:24:48,106 --> 01:24:49,739
- 'Cause he was fucking drunk.
- 1442
- 01:24:49,741 --> 01:24:52,111
- Okay, and why
- were you in the car?
- 1443
- 01:24:54,112 --> 01:24:56,078
- 'Cause we were
- going to the next party.
- 1444
- 01:24:56,080 --> 01:24:57,946
- He was the one
- that was driving.
- 1445
- 01:24:57,948 --> 01:24:59,349
- I don't know why I-I...
- 1446
- 01:24:59,351 --> 01:25:01,083
- - Okay, but why...
- - I couldn't drive.
- 1447
- 01:25:01,085 --> 01:25:03,720
- Wait, Callahan, why did you
- get in the car with him
- 1448
- 01:25:03,722 --> 01:25:05,320
- - if you knew he was drunk?
- - I don't know,
- 1449
- 01:25:05,322 --> 01:25:08,057
- 'cause I was a fucking kid!
- You don't make mistakes?
- 1450
- 01:25:08,059 --> 01:25:10,325
- Why did you
- get in the car with him
- 1451
- 01:25:10,327 --> 01:25:12,127
- if you knew he was drunk?
- 1452
- 01:25:12,129 --> 01:25:13,930
- Why would you do something
- like that?
- 1453
- 01:25:13,932 --> 01:25:16,032
- Would you do that right now?
- 1454
- 01:25:16,034 --> 01:25:18,467
- Would you get in the car with
- someone who you knew was drunk?
- 1455
- 01:25:19,737 --> 01:25:21,070
- Why did you do that?
- 1456
- 01:25:21,072 --> 01:25:22,806
- I don't know why.
- 1457
- 01:25:22,808 --> 01:25:26,743
- I... I was so fucking drunk.
- 1458
- 01:25:26,745 --> 01:25:28,977
- I was so fucking drunk.
- 1459
- 01:25:28,979 --> 01:25:31,881
- I was drunk
- since I was a fucking kid.
- 1460
- 01:25:31,883 --> 01:25:33,349
- I was so embarrassing.
- 1461
- 01:25:33,351 --> 01:25:36,752
- I know, 'cause I didn't...
- 1462
- 01:25:36,754 --> 01:25:38,887
- I didn't feel loved,
- 1463
- 01:25:38,889 --> 01:25:40,056
- I didn't feel wanted,
- 1464
- 01:25:40,058 --> 01:25:42,825
- so I tried
- to cover up my feelings.
- 1465
- 01:25:42,827 --> 01:25:45,494
- And it worked.
- 1466
- 01:25:45,496 --> 01:25:49,168
- I was born in 1951.
- 1467
- 01:25:50,736 --> 01:25:53,072
- At the old
- Saint Vincent's Hospital.
- 1468
- 01:25:55,107 --> 01:25:58,077
- I know three things
- about my real mother.
- 1469
- 01:25:59,811 --> 01:26:02,846
- She was Irish-American.
- 1470
- 01:26:02,848 --> 01:26:04,948
- She had red hair.
- 1471
- 01:26:04,950 --> 01:26:07,086
- And she was a school teacher.
- 1472
- 01:26:09,521 --> 01:26:12,087
- Oh, yeah.
- 1473
- 01:26:12,089 --> 01:26:15,425
- And she didn't want me.
- 1474
- 01:26:26,838 --> 01:26:29,873
- My alienation from my father...
- 1475
- 01:26:29,875 --> 01:26:32,876
- I hated his guts
- since I was 11...
- 1476
- 01:26:32,878 --> 01:26:35,414
- extended itself
- to my whole family.
- 1477
- 01:26:37,182 --> 01:26:39,414
- One Christmas...
- 1478
- 01:26:39,416 --> 01:26:41,818
- at the dinner table...
- 1479
- 01:26:41,820 --> 01:26:44,423
- there was a... disturbance.
- 1480
- 01:26:45,557 --> 01:26:47,190
- And Tommy,
- 1481
- 01:26:47,192 --> 01:26:51,261
- who was some five years
- younger than me,
- 1482
- 01:26:51,263 --> 01:26:53,262
- screamed.
- 1483
- 01:26:53,264 --> 01:26:58,236
- Whenever my dad
- punished one of my siblings...
- 1484
- 01:27:01,071 --> 01:27:03,105
- instead of me,
- 1485
- 01:27:03,107 --> 01:27:06,943
- it gave me
- a guilt-free excuse to...
- 1486
- 01:27:06,945 --> 01:27:08,477
- condemn him.
- 1487
- 01:27:08,479 --> 01:27:12,117
- I guess that was
- a big thing, you know?
- 1488
- 01:27:13,151 --> 01:27:17,052
- I never felt a part of them.
- 1489
- 01:27:17,054 --> 01:27:20,125
- I never felt like
- I was one of them.
- 1490
- 01:27:22,893 --> 01:27:24,194
- I thought I'd fucking
- 1491
- 01:27:24,196 --> 01:27:26,229
- drink my way
- out of those feelings.
- 1492
- 01:27:26,231 --> 01:27:30,135
- I became such a fuck up...
- 1493
- 01:27:32,269 --> 01:27:34,473
- that I won't ever forgive them.
- 1494
- 01:27:37,576 --> 01:27:39,141
- Oh, I mean that...
- 1495
- 01:27:39,143 --> 01:27:42,945
- I mean, they won't
- ever forgive me
- 1496
- 01:27:42,947 --> 01:27:47,016
- for all the...
- stupid shit I did.
- 1497
- 01:27:47,018 --> 01:27:48,918
- What'd you just say?
- 1498
- 01:27:48,920 --> 01:27:50,185
- That they won't...
- 1499
- 01:27:50,187 --> 01:27:53,021
- forgive me for
- all the stupid shit I did.
- 1500
- 01:27:55,125 --> 01:27:57,025
- That they won't forgive you
- 1501
- 01:27:57,027 --> 01:27:59,127
- or you won't forgive them?
- 1502
- 01:27:59,129 --> 01:28:01,530
- That they won't forgive me.
- 1503
- 01:28:01,532 --> 01:28:03,533
- You said that
- you won't forgive them.
- 1504
- 01:28:03,535 --> 01:28:07,339
- Okay, well, wh-what would
- I have to forgive them f...
- 1505
- 01:28:08,505 --> 01:28:10,205
- forgive them for?
- 1506
- 01:28:10,207 --> 01:28:12,641
- For making you feel
- like a black sheep.
- 1507
- 01:28:12,643 --> 01:28:14,276
- For not being
- your real parents,
- 1508
- 01:28:14,278 --> 01:28:16,115
- for having other children.
- 1509
- 01:28:17,549 --> 01:28:20,119
- Forgiving your birth mother
- for giving you up.
- 1510
- 01:28:24,522 --> 01:28:25,989
- Think about me!
- 1511
- 01:28:25,991 --> 01:28:28,127
- I won't forgive them.
- 1512
- 01:28:30,961 --> 01:28:32,328
- You're right on time, John.
- 1513
- 01:28:32,330 --> 01:28:35,030
- You're approaching
- the ninth step,
- 1514
- 01:28:35,032 --> 01:28:39,034
- which is where you get to go
- face-to-face with these people
- 1515
- 01:28:39,036 --> 01:28:41,539
- and forgive them in person.
- 1516
- 01:28:42,907 --> 01:28:45,341
- That's it?
- 1517
- 01:28:47,545 --> 01:28:49,678
- I mean, uh...
- 1518
- 01:28:49,680 --> 01:28:52,248
- I kind of thought that my...
- 1519
- 01:28:52,250 --> 01:28:56,019
- group story would end
- with an epiphany.
- 1520
- 01:28:56,021 --> 01:28:58,354
- Like, you know, I'd...
- 1521
- 01:28:58,356 --> 01:29:02,057
- break down and cry,
- and-and, uh...
- 1522
- 01:29:02,059 --> 01:29:04,092
- be cured forever.
- 1523
- 01:29:05,964 --> 01:29:07,262
- Nope.
- 1524
- 01:29:07,264 --> 01:29:10,967
- No, I don't feel
- that different now.
- 1525
- 01:29:10,969 --> 01:29:13,269
- I don't...
- 1526
- 01:29:13,271 --> 01:29:15,605
- I don't feel like
- I had the big moment.
- 1527
- 01:29:15,607 --> 01:29:17,105
- This is the big moment.
- 1528
- 01:29:17,107 --> 01:29:19,374
- There's no lightning bolt
- that shoots you
- 1529
- 01:29:19,376 --> 01:29:21,110
- and cures all your shit.
- 1530
- 01:29:21,112 --> 01:29:24,047
- There are discoveries
- and epiphanies
- 1531
- 01:29:24,049 --> 01:29:27,050
- and moments of clarity.
- 1532
- 01:29:27,052 --> 01:29:29,220
- But this doesn't just go away.
- 1533
- 01:29:30,722 --> 01:29:33,189
- You have to wrestle
- with this shit every day.
- 1534
- 01:29:33,191 --> 01:29:35,291
- Some of that pain
- will remain there forever.
- 1535
- 01:29:35,293 --> 01:29:37,293
- Some of that shame will
- remain there forever.
- 1536
- 01:29:37,295 --> 01:29:40,966
- But you have to fight with it,
- or you'll fucking die.
- 1537
- 01:29:44,736 --> 01:29:46,405
- Thank you.
- 1538
- 01:29:51,977 --> 01:29:53,976
- Mr. Levine?
- 1539
- 01:29:53,978 --> 01:29:55,211
- John?
- 1540
- 01:29:55,213 --> 01:29:56,980
- Yeah.
- 1541
- 01:29:56,982 --> 01:29:58,715
- It's been so long.
- 1542
- 01:29:58,717 --> 01:30:00,216
- Uh, hey.
- 1543
- 01:30:00,218 --> 01:30:01,617
- - How you been doing?
- - All right.
- 1544
- 01:30:01,619 --> 01:30:03,319
- - You still drawing?
- - Yeah.
- 1545
- 01:30:03,321 --> 01:30:05,754
- I remember you back
- in high... in high school,
- 1546
- 01:30:05,756 --> 01:30:07,190
- you had problems with sketches.
- 1547
- 01:30:07,192 --> 01:30:09,225
- But then you got
- into oil colors,
- 1548
- 01:30:09,227 --> 01:30:10,760
- - and it sort of reversed on itself.
- - Yeah.
- 1549
- 01:30:10,762 --> 01:30:14,096
- You were quite
- the student back then.
- 1550
- 01:30:14,098 --> 01:30:16,431
- Hey, um...
- 1551
- 01:30:16,433 --> 01:30:19,002
- Hey, I just want to apologize.
- 1552
- 01:30:19,004 --> 01:30:20,302
- Apologize for what?
- 1553
- 01:30:20,304 --> 01:30:22,270
- Well, I was...
- 1554
- 01:30:22,272 --> 01:30:25,208
- I caused some troubles
- in class, and...
- 1555
- 01:30:25,210 --> 01:30:26,708
- and you didn't deserve that.
- 1556
- 01:30:26,710 --> 01:30:29,011
- And, uh, I felt bad
- about it, and...
- 1557
- 01:30:29,013 --> 01:30:30,645
- I just want to make amends.
- 1558
- 01:30:30,647 --> 01:30:33,248
- Well, that's great
- you should say that, John.
- 1559
- 01:30:33,250 --> 01:30:36,084
- Teenagers, you know, you go
- through these stages, so...
- 1560
- 01:30:36,086 --> 01:30:39,055
- I could see potential in you.
- That was the main thing.
- 1561
- 01:30:39,057 --> 01:30:41,757
- I stole a shirt from this store
- ten years ago,
- 1562
- 01:30:41,759 --> 01:30:44,260
- and I'd like to
- make it up to you.
- 1563
- 01:30:44,262 --> 01:30:46,796
- It would really
- screw up our books.
- 1564
- 01:30:46,798 --> 01:30:48,330
- Um...
- 1565
- 01:30:48,332 --> 01:30:50,800
- just give five dollars
- to a charity,
- 1566
- 01:30:50,802 --> 01:30:52,438
- and that'll make it good, son.
- 1567
- 01:30:54,339 --> 01:30:56,241
- Hey, John.
- 1568
- 01:31:11,121 --> 01:31:12,821
- What do you want from me, John?
- 1569
- 01:31:12,823 --> 01:31:15,257
- Yeah, I was just thinking,
- you know,
- 1570
- 01:31:15,259 --> 01:31:19,194
- we've had a pretty contentious
- relationship, and, um...
- 1571
- 01:31:19,196 --> 01:31:21,196
- Probably made you
- feel bad a lot.
- 1572
- 01:31:21,198 --> 01:31:23,166
- And, um...
- 1573
- 01:31:23,168 --> 01:31:26,468
- I realize that it must be
- a really hard job, actually.
- 1574
- 01:31:26,470 --> 01:31:31,274
- And, uh, I probably made it
- more difficult.
- 1575
- 01:31:31,276 --> 01:31:33,443
- And, um...
- 1576
- 01:31:33,445 --> 01:31:36,311
- and I wanted to apologize.
- 1577
- 01:31:36,313 --> 01:31:39,849
- Well, uh, th... thanks
- for apologizing. I...
- 1578
- 01:31:39,851 --> 01:31:44,022
- And, uh... sure.
- I forgive you.
- 1579
- 01:31:45,423 --> 01:31:49,061
- Hey, I made
- this drawing for you.
- 1580
- 01:31:55,299 --> 01:31:57,400
- Oh, boy.
- 1581
- 01:31:57,402 --> 01:32:00,168
- Well... I don't know,
- maybe you can help me.
- 1582
- 01:32:00,170 --> 01:32:03,105
- I'm trying to do something
- with Klansmen,
- 1583
- 01:32:03,107 --> 01:32:05,208
- like... you know,
- just make them, like,
- 1584
- 01:32:05,210 --> 01:32:07,275
- more human, you know?
- 1585
- 01:32:07,277 --> 01:32:08,778
- - 'Cause everyone always talks about...
- - Klansmen?
- 1586
- 01:32:08,780 --> 01:32:10,279
- Well, no, because people
- 1587
- 01:32:10,281 --> 01:32:13,216
- always think about...
- racists as, like,
- 1588
- 01:32:13,218 --> 01:32:15,584
- just this, like, pure evil,
- but they're your neighbors.
- 1589
- 01:32:15,586 --> 01:32:16,886
- I don't know, I guess...
- 1590
- 01:32:16,888 --> 01:32:18,553
- sheets.
- 1591
- 01:32:18,555 --> 01:32:20,355
- Uh...
- 1592
- 01:32:20,357 --> 01:32:23,126
- what I like about sheets
- is they're sort of, like,
- 1593
- 01:32:23,128 --> 01:32:25,360
- warm and fluffy when
- you get 'em out of the dryer.
- 1594
- 01:32:26,763 --> 01:32:28,230
- Don't you love it
- 1595
- 01:32:28,232 --> 01:32:30,333
- when they're still warm
- from the dryer?
- 1596
- 01:32:30,335 --> 01:32:33,235
- ? What's the matter
- with the crowd I'm seeing? ?
- 1597
- 01:32:33,237 --> 01:32:35,303
- ? 'Cause you know that
- you're out of touch ?
- 1598
- 01:32:37,241 --> 01:32:39,876
- ? Should I be a fucking
- straight-A student? ?
- 1599
- 01:32:39,878 --> 01:32:43,245
- ? 'Cause you're out
- and you think too much... ?
- 1600
- 01:32:43,247 --> 01:32:45,780
- - Dexter?
- - ? Can't you see much... ?
- 1601
- 01:32:47,552 --> 01:32:50,352
- ? You can't dress trashy
- till you spend a lot of money ?
- 1602
- 01:32:50,354 --> 01:32:53,922
- ? Everybody's talking
- 'bout the new sound... ?
- 1603
- 01:32:53,924 --> 01:32:56,324
- You don't remember me?
- 1604
- 01:32:56,326 --> 01:32:58,262
- How you doing?
- 1605
- 01:32:59,597 --> 01:33:02,330
- ? What's the matter
- with the car I'm driving... ?
- 1606
- 01:33:03,268 --> 01:33:05,400
- Man.
- 1607
- 01:33:05,402 --> 01:33:09,204
- Um, you know, I'm, uh...
- 1608
- 01:33:09,206 --> 01:33:10,506
- fucking living.
- 1609
- 01:33:10,508 --> 01:33:13,342
- I'm just fucking
- doing my thing here.
- 1610
- 01:33:13,344 --> 01:33:15,214
- ? Nowadays you can't be
- too sentimental... ?
- 1611
- 01:33:16,347 --> 01:33:17,846
- How you doing?
- 1612
- 01:33:17,848 --> 01:33:19,548
- I'm good.
- 1613
- 01:33:19,550 --> 01:33:22,217
- I'm really good.
- 1614
- 01:33:22,219 --> 01:33:23,618
- Yeah.
- 1615
- 01:33:23,620 --> 01:33:25,253
- I'm sober now.
- 1616
- 01:33:25,255 --> 01:33:28,291
- - No shit?
- - Yeah.
- 1617
- 01:33:28,293 --> 01:33:29,425
- Yeah.
- 1618
- 01:33:29,427 --> 01:33:31,894
- And, uh... it's good.
- 1619
- 01:33:31,896 --> 01:33:33,895
- It's really good.
- 1620
- 01:33:33,897 --> 01:33:35,898
- I been doing it, too,
- on and off,
- 1621
- 01:33:35,900 --> 01:33:37,867
- - for, like, the last seven years, but...
- - Is that right?
- 1622
- 01:33:37,869 --> 01:33:39,968
- I'm fucking...
- I'm a fuck up, though, man.
- 1623
- 01:33:39,970 --> 01:33:41,671
- - I don't...
- - Ah, it's okay.
- 1624
- 01:33:41,673 --> 01:33:44,507
- I don't stick to it, but...
- 1625
- 01:33:44,509 --> 01:33:47,310
- Buddy, I came this fucking
- close to reaching out to you,
- 1626
- 01:33:47,312 --> 01:33:51,346
- but, uh, you know,
- I just chicken shitted out.
- 1627
- 01:33:51,348 --> 01:33:53,548
- I'm so fucking glad
- you're here.
- 1628
- 01:33:53,550 --> 01:33:57,386
- Yeah. You've been
- on my mind, too.
- 1629
- 01:33:57,388 --> 01:33:59,321
- I just didn't know
- what to fucking say.
- 1630
- 01:33:59,323 --> 01:34:00,655
- I was fucking...
- 1631
- 01:34:00,657 --> 01:34:03,258
- I mean,
- there's nothing I can say.
- 1632
- 01:34:03,260 --> 01:34:05,595
- There's nothing I can say.
- 1633
- 01:34:05,597 --> 01:34:08,330
- You know, what I've been
- learning is...
- 1634
- 01:34:08,332 --> 01:34:10,365
- I fucked my shit up.
- akumenang.com
- 1635
- 01:34:10,367 --> 01:34:13,336
- And it started
- long before I met you.
- 1636
- 01:34:13,338 --> 01:34:16,239
- It's all right.
- 1637
- 01:34:16,241 --> 01:34:17,974
- It is. Don't feel bad.
- 1638
- 01:34:17,976 --> 01:34:22,410
- No, I actually want
- to tell you that I was sorry.
- 1639
- 01:34:22,412 --> 01:34:24,247
- What do you mean?
- You're not s...
- 1640
- 01:34:24,249 --> 01:34:25,314
- What are you sorry for?
- 1641
- 01:34:25,316 --> 01:34:26,582
- Hey, man,
- 1642
- 01:34:26,584 --> 01:34:29,284
- I'm responsible, too,
- and I'm sure that
- 1643
- 01:34:29,286 --> 01:34:31,453
- it's probably
- really difficult for you.
- 1644
- 01:34:31,455 --> 01:34:33,455
- I mean, all those years,
- I imagine.
- 1645
- 01:34:33,457 --> 01:34:36,258
- I don't want you
- to feel guilty or feel bad.
- 1646
- 01:34:36,260 --> 01:34:39,427
- You need to know
- I had a good life, man.
- 1647
- 01:34:39,429 --> 01:34:40,663
- Really.
- 1648
- 01:34:40,665 --> 01:34:42,898
- Things are good.
- 1649
- 01:34:42,900 --> 01:34:44,699
- It's really good.
- 1650
- 01:34:44,701 --> 01:34:46,435
- - No shit?
- - Yeah.
- 1651
- 01:34:46,437 --> 01:34:51,039
- I've had a fucking
- shitty fucking life, man.
- 1652
- 01:34:51,041 --> 01:34:53,708
- Sorry.
- 1653
- 01:34:53,710 --> 01:34:55,646
- It's fine.
- 1654
- 01:34:59,049 --> 01:35:01,219
- Um...
- 1655
- 01:35:05,423 --> 01:35:07,623
- I'm coming in. I'm coming in.
- 1656
- 01:35:08,992 --> 01:35:11,327
- Ah, ah, it's all right, man.
- 1657
- 01:35:21,004 --> 01:35:23,241
- Hi, Mom.
- 1658
- 01:35:25,009 --> 01:35:27,310
- You look pretty.
- 1659
- 01:35:31,549 --> 01:35:34,553
- I guess I have to forgive you
- more than anyone.
- 1660
- 01:35:37,021 --> 01:35:39,321
- I've cursed you.
- 1661
- 01:35:39,323 --> 01:35:41,460
- I've screamed at you.
- 1662
- 01:35:44,394 --> 01:35:47,096
- I never considered what it...
- 1663
- 01:35:47,098 --> 01:35:49,401
- might have been like for you.
- 1664
- 01:35:51,102 --> 01:35:54,970
- Might be it was
- really difficult to give me up.
- 1665
- 01:35:54,972 --> 01:35:56,439
- Or maybe it wasn't.
- 1666
- 01:35:58,009 --> 01:35:59,711
- And that's okay, too.
- 1667
- 01:36:02,379 --> 01:36:05,648
- I guess...
- 1668
- 01:36:05,650 --> 01:36:10,354
- I guess I'll never find you,
- no matter how much I search.
- 1669
- 01:36:11,621 --> 01:36:14,459
- Looking up every
- Maggie Lynch that I could.
- 1670
- 01:36:15,727 --> 01:36:19,398
- You know, I even found
- someone that knew you.
- 1671
- 01:36:22,433 --> 01:36:24,069
- I got close.
- 1672
- 01:36:28,039 --> 01:36:29,775
- But, Mom...
- 1673
- 01:36:31,442 --> 01:36:33,376
- wherever...
- 1674
- 01:36:33,378 --> 01:36:35,644
- wherever you are,
- 1675
- 01:36:35,646 --> 01:36:37,549
- I need you to know...
- 1676
- 01:36:40,050 --> 01:36:41,753
- I forgive you.
- 1677
- 01:36:43,821 --> 01:36:45,756
- It's okay.
- 1678
- 01:36:53,397 --> 01:36:56,164
- What's that painting, Donnie?
- 1679
- 01:36:56,166 --> 01:36:59,502
- I don't know.
- 1680
- 01:36:59,504 --> 01:37:03,342
- I got it the same way I got
- all this shit, inherited it.
- 1681
- 01:37:04,575 --> 01:37:06,742
- It's, like...
- 1682
- 01:37:06,744 --> 01:37:09,412
- my grandparents were, like...
- 1683
- 01:37:09,414 --> 01:37:12,681
- fucking really rich.
- 1684
- 01:37:12,683 --> 01:37:14,650
- So, like,
- my parents grew up rich,
- 1685
- 01:37:14,652 --> 01:37:17,485
- and then, like,
- I grew up really rich.
- 1686
- 01:37:17,487 --> 01:37:20,489
- It's, like, so stupid.
- 1687
- 01:37:22,125 --> 01:37:25,727
- It's nice, but it's stupid.
- 1688
- 01:37:25,729 --> 01:37:30,132
- Have you visited everyone
- you felt you wronged?
- 1689
- 01:37:30,134 --> 01:37:32,101
- Forgiven everyone
- you wanted to forgive?
- 1690
- 01:37:32,103 --> 01:37:33,601
- Yeah.
- 1691
- 01:37:33,603 --> 01:37:35,671
- So...
- 1692
- 01:37:35,673 --> 01:37:38,440
- what, I'm all cleared up, huh?
- 1693
- 01:37:38,442 --> 01:37:40,476
- Step ten, next?
- 1694
- 01:37:40,478 --> 01:37:43,878
- What about yourself?
- 1695
- 01:37:43,880 --> 01:37:45,480
- What do you mean?
- 1696
- 01:37:45,482 --> 01:37:47,615
- It's not all about your mother.
- 1697
- 01:37:47,617 --> 01:37:50,121
- You have to
- forgive yourself, too.
- 1698
- 01:37:51,856 --> 01:37:54,190
- Forgive yourself
- for listening to Dexter,
- 1699
- 01:37:54,192 --> 01:37:57,496
- forgive yourself for
- going with him that night.
- 1700
- 01:38:06,870 --> 01:38:08,636
- Hello, Brenda.
- Hello, all my friends.
- 1701
- 01:38:08,638 --> 01:38:11,239
- How are you?
- It is a great day today.
- 1702
- 01:38:11,241 --> 01:38:14,476
- Hey, what's happening?
- What's up, John?
- 1703
- 01:38:14,478 --> 01:38:16,244
- Ah, nothing much.
- 1704
- 01:38:16,246 --> 01:38:18,646
- You know, the usual.
- 1705
- 01:38:18,648 --> 01:38:21,617
- Thought you might want
- to take a look at this.
- 1706
- 01:38:21,619 --> 01:38:23,485
- What's this?
- 1707
- 01:38:23,487 --> 01:38:25,156
- Oh, nothing.
- 1708
- 01:38:26,523 --> 01:38:27,823
- Mm-hmm.
- 1709
- 01:38:30,260 --> 01:38:32,194
- That's funny.
- 1710
- 01:38:32,196 --> 01:38:33,529
- What is this?
- 1711
- 01:38:33,531 --> 01:38:35,530
- "Penthouse."
- Oh, wow, that's nice.
- 1712
- 01:38:35,532 --> 01:38:37,632
- - "Oh, well, that's nice"? That's it?
- - It's great.
- 1713
- 01:38:37,634 --> 01:38:39,868
- "This area's patrolled
- by lesbians."
- 1714
- 01:38:39,870 --> 01:38:41,636
- What are you saying
- about lesbians?
- 1715
- 01:38:41,638 --> 01:38:43,506
- Are they intimidating
- or something?
- 1716
- 01:38:43,508 --> 01:38:45,673
- No, it's not...
- I'm just saying, you know,
- 1717
- 01:38:45,675 --> 01:38:46,876
- well, maybe they're, like,
- 1718
- 01:38:46,878 --> 01:38:49,244
- naked construction site
- security...
- 1719
- 01:38:49,246 --> 01:38:51,579
- Very educational article.
- 1720
- 01:38:51,581 --> 01:38:53,649
- Well, it's just a cartoon.
- 1721
- 01:38:53,651 --> 01:38:55,184
- - I mean, it's just supposed to be funny.
- - Hey, John!
- 1722
- 01:38:55,186 --> 01:38:57,252
- - John!
- - Yeah?
- 1723
- 01:38:57,254 --> 01:38:58,587
- What do you got?
- 1724
- 01:39:00,957 --> 01:39:03,292
- - Are you ready?
- - Yeah.
- 1725
- 01:39:03,294 --> 01:39:05,793
- Take a look.
- 1726
- 01:39:05,795 --> 01:39:07,262
- All right, let me check.
- 1727
- 01:39:07,264 --> 01:39:09,731
- Okay, that's funny.
- 1728
- 01:39:09,733 --> 01:39:11,233
- - It's funny.
- - It's funny.
- 1729
- 01:39:11,235 --> 01:39:12,735
- - Yeah.
- - Yeah.
- 1730
- 01:39:12,737 --> 01:39:14,770
- It is funny. Well, why do
- you think it's funny?
- 1731
- 01:39:14,772 --> 01:39:16,939
- - Oh, wow.
- - It's, uh...
- 1732
- 01:39:16,941 --> 01:39:19,275
- It's funny
- 'cause it makes you laugh.
- 1733
- 01:39:19,277 --> 01:39:20,310
- It's not that funny.
- 1734
- 01:39:20,312 --> 01:39:22,810
- The joke is funny
- because of the sign
- 1735
- 01:39:22,812 --> 01:39:26,248
- suggesting that lesbians will
- kick your ass if you cross.
- 1736
- 01:39:26,250 --> 01:39:28,182
- It's-it's unexpected.
- 1737
- 01:39:28,184 --> 01:39:30,252
- It's-it's like a warning sign
- for attack dogs,
- 1738
- 01:39:30,254 --> 01:39:32,288
- - but instead it's lesbians.
- - Thank you.
- 1739
- 01:39:32,290 --> 01:39:34,256
- I mean, for the-the readers
- of "Penthouse,"
- 1740
- 01:39:34,258 --> 01:39:37,959
- these men, this-this plays on
- this shared fear of women.
- 1741
- 01:39:37,961 --> 01:39:41,329
- Just this unexpected
- mutual fear.
- 1742
- 01:39:41,331 --> 01:39:42,965
- I mean, it's...
- 1743
- 01:39:42,967 --> 01:39:45,234
- Wow. I mean, what's scarier
- than a group of women
- 1744
- 01:39:45,236 --> 01:39:47,970
- that don't need men?
- 1745
- 01:39:47,972 --> 01:39:50,773
- It's also just...
- really fucking funny.
- 1746
- 01:39:50,775 --> 01:39:52,341
- - That's what I think.
- - That is funny.
- 1747
- 01:39:52,343 --> 01:39:53,909
- - I didn't even think about it.
- - The "lesbian,"
- 1748
- 01:39:53,911 --> 01:39:55,043
- - exclamation point.
- - I don't know...
- 1749
- 01:39:55,045 --> 01:39:57,346
- You guys want another beer?
- 1750
- 01:39:57,348 --> 01:39:59,614
- - Let me buy you guys a beer. What are you drinking?
- - Uh...
- 1751
- 01:39:59,616 --> 01:40:00,916
- - Gherkin.
- - Cerveza?
- 1752
- 01:40:00,918 --> 01:40:02,284
- - Yeah.
- - You want a cerveza?
- 1753
- 01:40:02,286 --> 01:40:03,319
- - Same. Yeah.
- - That's fine.
- 1754
- 01:40:03,321 --> 01:40:04,819
- Hey, can I get three cervezas?
- 1755
- 01:40:04,821 --> 01:40:06,654
- You know what?
- Beer for everybody!
- 1756
- 01:40:08,058 --> 01:40:11,760
- Hey, John.
- What you got for us?
- 1757
- 01:40:11,762 --> 01:40:14,296
- Yes.
- 1758
- 01:40:14,298 --> 01:40:15,998
- This one's great.
- 1759
- 01:40:16,000 --> 01:40:18,603
- - This came for you, John.
- - Awesome. Thank you.
- 1760
- 01:40:32,383 --> 01:40:34,016
- Hey! Callahan!
- 1761
- 01:40:34,018 --> 01:40:35,954
- Loved that lawyer joke!
- 1762
- 01:40:43,628 --> 01:40:46,794
- - Hey. I loved your Jesus joke, man.
- - Ah, really?
- 1763
- 01:40:46,796 --> 01:40:49,567
- Thank God it's Friday.
- 1764
- 01:40:50,334 --> 01:40:52,333
- Your cartoons are sickening.
- 1765
- 01:40:52,335 --> 01:40:54,939
- You should be dropped
- from the paper!
- 1766
- 01:40:56,040 --> 01:40:57,840
- She was really mad.
- 1767
- 01:40:57,842 --> 01:40:59,874
- Yeah. I like those reactions
- the best, though.
- 1768
- 01:40:59,876 --> 01:41:02,845
- You know? She's really
- telling it like it is.
- 1769
- 01:41:02,847 --> 01:41:05,346
- Over here?
- 1770
- 01:41:05,348 --> 01:41:07,082
- - You want to see?
- - Mm.
- 1771
- 01:41:07,084 --> 01:41:09,318
- I've been in
- ten different bands.
- 1772
- 01:41:09,320 --> 01:41:10,985
- Yes!
- 1773
- 01:41:10,987 --> 01:41:12,421
- That's what I'm talking about.
- 1774
- 01:41:12,423 --> 01:41:14,657
- "Harmonious male backpacker..."
- 1775
- 01:41:14,659 --> 01:41:16,891
- Oh. My God, Annu, look at this.
- 1776
- 01:41:16,893 --> 01:41:18,793
- "Harmonious male backpacker
- 1777
- 01:41:18,795 --> 01:41:21,396
- into making 16th century
- stringed instruments
- 1778
- 01:41:21,398 --> 01:41:24,099
- seeks radical feminist
- household which will not
- 1779
- 01:41:24,101 --> 01:41:26,135
- tease me about my testicles."
- 1780
- 01:41:27,737 --> 01:41:29,137
- I mean, is this fucking real?
- 1781
- 01:41:29,139 --> 01:41:30,838
- It doesn't seem
- that strange, John.
- 1782
- 01:41:30,840 --> 01:41:32,041
- It doesn't?
- 1783
- 01:41:32,043 --> 01:41:33,742
- You're just living in the past.
- 1784
- 01:41:33,744 --> 01:41:36,113
- I'm living in the pa... Oh.
- 1785
- 01:41:45,822 --> 01:41:48,093
- Bye for now.
- 1786
- 01:42:07,445 --> 01:42:09,444
- I got you.
- 1787
- 01:42:12,148 --> 01:42:15,150
- Are you working
- on your sobriety?
- 1788
- 01:42:15,152 --> 01:42:18,419
- Still working on it, man.
- 1789
- 01:42:18,421 --> 01:42:21,023
- Finishing all the levels?
- 1790
- 01:42:21,025 --> 01:42:22,791
- Yep.
- 1791
- 01:42:22,793 --> 01:42:24,827
- I spoke at a meeting last week.
- 1792
- 01:42:24,829 --> 01:42:27,096
- - John.
- - Yeah.
- 1793
- 01:42:27,098 --> 01:42:30,132
- That is great.
- 1794
- 01:42:30,134 --> 01:42:32,400
- I love step 12.
- 1795
- 01:42:32,402 --> 01:42:34,936
- Yeah, I mean...
- 1796
- 01:42:34,938 --> 01:42:37,107
- I was nervous, still, but...
- 1797
- 01:42:38,174 --> 01:42:40,110
- I don't know, giving back.
- 1798
- 01:42:42,079 --> 01:42:44,683
- You forgive yourself yet?
- 1799
- 01:42:46,916 --> 01:42:48,186
- I think so.
- 1800
- 01:42:49,085 --> 01:42:52,056
- What'd you forgive
- yourself for?
- 1801
- 01:42:53,189 --> 01:42:55,059
- I forgave myself for...
- 1802
- 01:42:56,927 --> 01:42:58,796
- looking for better babes.
- 1803
- 01:43:03,200 --> 01:43:06,135
- Did I ever tell you
- how I stay sober?
- 1804
- 01:43:06,137 --> 01:43:07,871
- Tell me again.
- 1805
- 01:43:10,875 --> 01:43:13,478
- I was with someone
- for a long time.
- 1806
- 01:43:15,411 --> 01:43:18,148
- He was great.
- He was a really sweet person.
- 1807
- 01:43:20,183 --> 01:43:23,153
- But I was...
- I was very selfish.
- 1808
- 01:43:27,825 --> 01:43:29,260
- I was very fucked-up.
- 1809
- 01:43:32,228 --> 01:43:33,995
- And, uh...
- 1810
- 01:43:33,997 --> 01:43:37,065
- he... uh, he came home one day,
- 1811
- 01:43:37,067 --> 01:43:40,168
- and I was having a seizure
- on the floor.
- 1812
- 01:43:40,170 --> 01:43:41,905
- And...
- 1813
- 01:43:51,247 --> 01:43:54,149
- When I get close
- to wanting a drink,
- 1814
- 01:43:54,151 --> 01:43:58,122
- I... I don't think of myself
- or my life.
- 1815
- 01:44:03,460 --> 01:44:06,160
- I think of him.
- 1816
- 01:44:06,162 --> 01:44:08,165
- His face.
- 1817
- 01:44:16,941 --> 01:44:19,842
- I don't know how many, uh...
- 1818
- 01:44:19,844 --> 01:44:23,278
- more of these talks
- we're gonna have, 'cause...
- 1819
- 01:44:23,280 --> 01:44:26,951
- I'm seeing the-the gymnasts
- on the lawn, John.
- 1820
- 01:44:28,251 --> 01:44:30,254
- Don't say that.
- 1821
- 01:44:35,159 --> 01:44:38,226
- Big part of this program
- 1822
- 01:44:38,228 --> 01:44:40,964
- is losing people
- you don't want to lose.
- 1823
- 01:44:47,170 --> 01:44:50,307
- Being a model to the world...
- 1824
- 01:44:53,210 --> 01:44:57,279
- eternal virtue will be yours,
- 1825
- 01:44:57,281 --> 01:45:00,185
- and you return
- to the boundless.
- 1826
- 01:45:01,951 --> 01:45:04,019
- Lao-Tzu.
- 1827
- 01:45:04,021 --> 01:45:05,186
- Chuck E. Cheese.
- 1828
- 01:45:17,034 --> 01:45:19,301
- I think I'm still
- a little selfish.
- 1829
- 01:45:19,303 --> 01:45:22,904
- I was helping
- you guys a lot, 'cause...
- 1830
- 01:45:22,906 --> 01:45:24,273
- it was helping me.
- 1831
- 01:45:24,275 --> 01:45:26,311
- My 12th step, being a sponsor.
- 1832
- 01:45:30,246 --> 01:45:33,015
- You were such
- a pain in the ass, John.
- 1833
- 01:45:34,285 --> 01:45:36,217
- I'm sorry.
- 1834
- 01:45:36,219 --> 01:45:38,220
- You're the best, Donnie.
- 1835
- 01:45:38,222 --> 01:45:40,021
- You really helped me.
- 1836
- 01:45:40,023 --> 01:45:41,558
- You helped all of us.
- 1837
- 01:45:42,992 --> 01:45:45,229
- It is hard
- teaching people faith.
- 1838
- 01:45:55,939 --> 01:45:57,342
- Give me a hug.
- 1839
- 01:46:02,179 --> 01:46:04,082
- Come here.
- 1840
- 01:46:09,186 --> 01:46:11,052
- Drink water.
- 1841
- 01:46:11,054 --> 01:46:12,320
- You, too.
- 1842
- 01:46:12,322 --> 01:46:15,190
- It doesn't work.
- 1843
- 01:46:15,192 --> 01:46:17,159
- It really doesn't.
- 1844
- 01:46:18,963 --> 01:46:21,296
- Adios, amigo.
- 1845
- 01:46:21,298 --> 01:46:23,230
- - Yeah.
- - Yeah.
- 1846
- 01:46:23,232 --> 01:46:25,266
- He used to wear these
- really, really cool scarves.
- 1847
- 01:46:25,268 --> 01:46:27,168
- Yeah, he looks like a wizard.
- 1848
- 01:46:27,170 --> 01:46:29,171
- Yeah, Donnie got
- really sick over time.
- 1849
- 01:46:29,173 --> 01:46:32,173
- - And they discovered he had AIDS.
- - Mm.
- 1850
- 01:46:32,175 --> 01:46:35,209
- That was the last time
- I saw him before he died.
- 1851
- 01:46:35,211 --> 01:46:37,244
- - Oh.
- - The truth...
- 1852
- 01:46:37,246 --> 01:46:39,114
- - Yeah, the truth hurts.
- - Yeah. Yeah.
- 1853
- 01:46:39,116 --> 01:46:40,649
- Unfortunately.
- 1854
- 01:46:40,651 --> 01:46:42,117
- So, do you want to come
- to the skate ramp with us?
- 1855
- 01:46:42,119 --> 01:46:43,651
- - Yeah.
- - Yeah, absolutely.
- 1856
- 01:46:43,653 --> 01:46:45,087
- Where is it?
- 1857
- 01:46:45,089 --> 01:46:46,355
- Uh, it's down the block,
- actually.
- 1858
- 01:46:46,357 --> 01:46:48,323
- - Show me the way.
- - Yeah! It's there.
- 1859
- 01:46:50,193 --> 01:46:52,627
- - That way.
- - That way?
- 1860
- 01:47:13,317 --> 01:47:15,249
- I'd like to thank
- 1861
- 01:47:15,251 --> 01:47:17,722
- all those who made it possible
- for me to be here tonight.
- 1862
- 01:47:33,269 --> 01:47:35,203
- I feel...
- 1863
- 01:47:37,273 --> 01:47:41,243
- ...stimulated, magical.
- 1864
- 01:47:41,245 --> 01:47:43,211
- At night, I seem
- to think more clearly.
- 1865
- 01:47:43,213 --> 01:47:48,085
- I work hard, but it doesn't
- feel like work to me.
- 1866
- 01:47:51,287 --> 01:47:53,355
- The intellectual clutter
- of the daytime hours
- 1867
- 01:47:53,357 --> 01:47:58,060
- dissolves from my mind,
- which moves in an almost...
- 1868
- 01:47:58,062 --> 01:48:00,999
- instinctual, animal way.
- 1869
- 01:48:02,198 --> 01:48:03,768
- I'm happy.
- 1870
- 01:48:05,302 --> 01:48:07,702
- I don't care that the job
- 1871
- 01:48:07,704 --> 01:48:10,271
- or the welfare office
- is giving me gray hairs,
- 1872
- 01:48:10,273 --> 01:48:11,742
- because...
- 1873
- 01:48:13,410 --> 01:48:19,247
- ideas and images
- are flowing through me
- 1874
- 01:48:19,249 --> 01:48:21,285
- and onto the paper.
- 1875
- 01:48:23,420 --> 01:48:26,288
- I'd like to thank
- all those who made it possible
- 1876
- 01:48:26,290 --> 01:48:28,292
- for me to be here tonight.
- 1877
- 01:48:31,195 --> 01:48:33,331
- Because if it weren't
- for you...
- 1878
- 01:48:34,464 --> 01:48:37,466
- I don't think
- I would have made it.
- 1879
- 01:49:14,470 --> 01:49:16,171
- - Yeah!
- - Yeah!
- 1880
- 01:49:16,173 --> 01:49:17,305
- Oh.
- 1881
- 01:49:17,307 --> 01:49:18,773
- - That was good.
- - Yeah, John.
- 1882
- 01:49:18,775 --> 01:49:20,175
- Get it!
- 1883
- 01:49:20,177 --> 01:49:21,275
- - Yeah!
- - Whoo!
- 1884
- 01:49:21,277 --> 01:49:23,345
- - Oh. Uh-oh.
- - Oh!
- 1885
- 01:49:24,514 --> 01:49:26,780
- - Gnarly!
- - You all right?
- 1886
- 01:49:26,782 --> 01:49:28,550
- Let's go, get him up.
- 1887
- 01:49:28,552 --> 01:49:30,252
- - Get his, get his shoulders.
- - You okay?
- 1888
- 01:49:30,254 --> 01:49:32,319
- Here. Hold up.
