Kalamity (2010) - full transcript

After a recent breakup, Billy returns to his hometown to find something is not quite right with his best friend.

I'm not old, but I

feel that way sometimes.

As you get older, you kind of

feel like the magic's gone,

and the world tends to get a

shade bluer with each year.

Some people are OK

with that progression,

take it as it comes.

They understand it.

Some people try to

move past it and evolve

with the passing years,

quietly submitting

and trying to look beyond.

Some people let it break them.

And when they're broke,

there's no fixing.

How was it?

Not good.

Are you sure?

I'm sure.

If there's anything

you need, I'll be

here just watching a little TV.

Thanks.

Hey, what's up

with your shirt?

What?

Get a different shirt on.

Since when did

you start paying

attention to what I wear?

I don't know.

Just, I notice those things.

Worry about your own

wardrobe, not mine.

Baby, remember on the bus

and my hand was on your knee.

When you love somebody, it's

hard to think about anything

but to breathe.

Baby, I am the cub who was

washed out in the flood.

When you love somebody,

bite your tongue.

All you get is a

mouthful of blood.

OK.

Hey, hey.

What's up.

Let's get the

hell out of here.

These lights are

making me feel mental.

Here, let me take that.

Thanks, man.

- You look like a piece of shit.

- Thanks.

I feel like a six pack at

a construction, saying.

Did you talk to your

bitch since you landed?

Don't start with this shit.

Did you?

She's not a bitch.

Oh, I'm sorry.

Did you talk to your

princess since you landed?

Yeah, I called

her before I left.

No answer.

Hey, what was that movie

we watched in high school,

you know?

Um, the fuck was that movie?

it was about... it had Mormons

and stunt cocks in it.

Oh, "Orgasmo."

Yes.

"Orgasmo."

You're like the bad guy in

"Orgasmo," Neutered Man.

Just a new Billy.

You know, it is

so nice to have

a sympathetic ear close by.

Stan, thank you.

Thank you for that.

Feel like going out later?

If Alice calls.

If she does, it'll kind

of set the bar, you know.

Billy.

- See you, man.

- Hey.

Thanks, see you.

Hey.

How was your flight?

Oh, it was an anxiety

attack from start to finish.

Barbie, how's Ken?

Billy, I told you,

that's not funny anymore.

Well, I always

think it's funny.

Here, let me get that.

The only reason I even notice

time is you guys, you kids.

Other than that, I don't

notice getting any older.

I don't know about

that, you guys are starting

to look like prunes to me.

Thanks, pal.

Prunes?

Well, not you, mom.

You look maybe a year

or two out of college.

Oh, good save.

Hey, with age comes wisdom.

Isn't he a knucklehead?

You are a knucklehead.

Isn't he?

I should answer

this real quick.

I'll be right back.

It's Alice,

Tom, let him take it.

Hey.

Hi, I saw you called.

Yeah, yeah, I did.

I just wanted to see how

you're doing, you know,

how you're feeling?

I'm good, there's

nothing to report.

Come on, Alice, I just need

to balance things out a bit.

And so moving out of the

state constitutes balance?

You know...

I just want to

see where I'm at.

Well, you're not here.

You know, I can't do this,

I can't talk like this.

You know, we just, we shouldn't,

I don't think we should talk.

Well, I need to, OK?

I need to right now.

Your voice it reminds

me that I'm breathing.

Stop.

It was in your hands.

OK, listen, we

can not talk for now.

We can... just please,

give it a chance,

give it a second, all right?

I'm not officially moved

out of the state yet.

I can come back.

OK, maybe if

you come back and then

we can talk in person.

But I told you before,

this whole phone thing,

I can't do it.

I just... it's just not me.

Shit, Billy, this

fucks up my whole week.

I've got school, and I just...

Alice, please,

please just hear me out.

Billy, are you OK?

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

I want a baby.

Just a little

time, when I'm 1,000.

You make me sound like

I'm going to lay a spider egg,

and we're going to

have them everywhere,

making webs on our bed,

crawling all over you,

saying, daddy, take care of me.

Well, maybe four

then, I could do four.

Four's doable.

You think you can handle

36 months of pregnancy?

Hmm, OK, maybe

two, I could do two.

So 18 months?

Yeah.

All right, off

your ass, baby mama.

I can feel you obsessing.

I can't stop.

You can, trust me, you can.

My memories have become like

answering machine messages,

just looping

repeatedly in my head.

I just play them over,

and over, and over again.

It sucks.

It's totally unintentional.

That's what it's like.

They split your skull, worm

their way into your brain,

making extraction impossible.

She's probably finger

fucking herself

knowing you can't

stop romanticizing

your time together.

This isn't helping, Stan.

I have to go the bathroom.

Well, it helps me.

What about me, huh?

I mean I don't fucking know.

It's what women are and

what they do, period.

She's a good girl at heart.

At heart?

She's selfish.

They're all selfish.

You told me she was

a selfish bitch.

They're all worthless.

What about Ashley?

Seriously, don't

say that name.

Why?

I said don't.

Hey, what the fuck, man.

Don't fucking touch

me, be an adult.

I mean it.

OK, I'm sorry.

Fuck, Stan, I'm just saying,

you know, people are people.

There's no one way to see them.

Everybody's got their

shit shuffled differently.

No, women run everything.

They do not.

Us, the world,

for every dictator,

there's a woman twisting the

life out of his helpless sack,

barking orders.

That's bullshit

and you know it.

Do I?

You do.

Women, you know, women can

make you feel like you're

not just a dot on the map.

I'd rather take

a Norwegian fist pie

than be emotionally

dependent again.

Is that like

an Abe Lincoln?

It's closer to a donkey punch.

It's when you're fucking a

girl and you pull out abrupt

because you're about to blow...

I think I've

heard enough of these

to know where this is going.

You think?

I know a girl,

that's for sure.

Oh, fuck.

What?

I pissed on my shoe.

I need to concentrate.

It's just like

heaven, being here with you.

You're like an angel,

too good to be true.

Simge...

And you two are

depressing to look at.

I broke up with my girlfriend.

Oh, how long?

Five years.

Sorry to hear that.

What's your excuse, Lite-Brite?

Fuck off, Simge.

No, I'm talking to Billy.

He has no interest

in speaking with you.

Stan, yes, I do, relax.

Well, I don't.

I can see Ashley has

been hard at work again.

What the fuck, man.

Is there something

in your tiny brain

that rejects my request

for you to leave.

Oh, it is Ashley.

Ashley did something to you.

That girl brings out

the worst every time.

I can see her in your eyes.

Simge, this isn't

the best time.

Take a hint, bitch.

You can't lump

all women together

because you're a doormat.

I'm not Ashley.

You have a slit

between your legs.

Stan, that's enough

And you're about to

have one too if you

don't shut your fucking mouth.

It's a fucking joke.

Is it?

You know,

work on your attitude

and then maybe I'll

accept your apology later.

I'll catch up with

you later, when you're

not with this cocksucker.

I'm going to

tell you right now,

this isn't working for me, OK?

I can't help how I am.

This isn't you.

It's me now.

Down to the bones, it's me now.

Well, it's making my

situation a whole lot harder.

That's the truth, Stan.

It's making it a lot harder.

OK.

I'll take you home.

I'll take you home.

Ooh, I do.

No one else will

love you like I do.

Ooh, ooh, ooh,

ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh.

Please let...

Seriously,

don't bring that up.

Don't.

Stupid bitch.

Jesus.

Like a

hostage tied in chains.

I could not forget your name.

Destroy she said my love again,

the end will come quickly.

Don't try again to make amends,

you'll just end up sinking.

If you explode in

aftermath, don't

think you've been dreaming.

Destroy she said my love again,

when it's not worth keeping.

Like a helicopter crash, Like

a ghetto that's been smashed.

Fuck, what?

I don't care, what you want?

It's 2:00 a.m., I'm drunk

and I'm not coming over.

You knew I went out.

That's why you're

calling about me.

No.

Why don't you go fuck

your little Menessa slut.

Yes, you did sleep with her.

Sarah told me that you

screwed her in the...

well, that's what Sarah

said, and I believe her.

You did not just say that.

You know what, I think my

phone's dying, I'm sorry,

uh, beep, beep, beep.

Bye-bye.

Why is this so much fun?

My feet are the

side of your head.

They're

dainty and graceful.

Didn't you know?

I did.

Come here.

- Hey.

- Hey, Stan called.

Yeah, what'd he say?

He said that he wants

you to stop by the store later,

said you need to talk, or

he needed to talk to you.

Yeah, he kind of caught

me off guard last night.

He was acting like

a royal asshole.

He said to say he's

sorry about that too.

Is there a reason he

didn't leave this on my cell?

He didn't say.

But he sounded kind of uneven.

He didn't joke around with

me like he usually does.

Just sounded like

a straight line.

Don't look at

me like that, Billy.

Like what?

You want even talk to me.

You don't even

know how to talk to me.

I dated you for five

fucking years, Alice.

I spent days and

nights quieting,

counseling, endless conflicts.

OK, I know how to talk to you.

So you've just given up?

I don't know what else to do.

Oh, shit, sorry.

Hey, Stan.

Knock.

What?

Knock next time.

Do we have any more

of the alpine 9987's?

No.

Shit.

It's just we got this

easy kill out here.

What do we have?

Sell him a Sony.

Oh, man, everybody

knows Sony makes shit.

So sell him a Sony.

Do you work here or

do you work here?

So, so, I think, I

think this looks good.

I mean Alpine, Alpine's,

Alpine's good, right?

I just talked to my

manager, he's been yanking

those bad boys out all month.

Well, I'm glad you

went, I'm glad you went

back there then, that's good.

No definitely, I

mean, I'm glad too.

Let me show you something else.

Ever since the last time I saw

Ashley, he's just been flat.

They've been

broken up for months.

Yeah, I know.

When he out with her, he didn't

give any details, he just left.

Did they fight?

I don't know.

I'm really sorry

to hear about what

happened between your girl.

You were up and out

of Ohio pretty fast.

Probably what I would do

if that happened to me.

Any women in you life?

My luck in that

department's minimal.

I just don't know what to say.

It's not about

what you say, man.

You need a change of wardrobe.

Well, my mom

sends me this stuff.

Tell her to stop.

Christian made

a pretty good sale.

I've taught him well.

I can see that.

So tell me something,

what is this shit?

What shit?

This shit, all this,

this whole attitude.

That did Ashley do to you?

What did I say about

mentioning her name?

Why can't I mention it?

I know her too, OK?

You dated her for

five goddamn years.

She's part of my

personal history too.

She's part of

history, which is where

I would like her to remain.

So I will ask you again,

please, don't mention her.

We're fucking friends, Stan.

You hear me?

We're friends.

I hear you.

So you can tell me if there's

something I need to know.

And I will tell you

if there is something

that you need to know.

- All right, fine.

Hey, like stop.

You know what, I can't even

fucking talk to you right now.

What if something

happened to Alice?

What did you say?

If something

happened to Alice.

Would you be heartbroken?

Or would you feel

forced to move on?

Are you out of your

motherfucking mind?

Just answer the question.

No, I'm not

going to answer it.

This is crazy.

She's in fucking school, Stan.

She's not in the Middle East.

Her environment is

more than sound.

She's fine.

I'm just trying

to lend a hand.

I came here because I thought

we could talk, like friends do.

I think... is the

Italian sub any good?

Do you like Italian subs?

Usually.

Then, yeah, it's good.

OK, I'll take that

and a medium drink.

Great.

And so the search begins

for a young woman of 24.

Her name is Ashley Detwiler.

And she has not been

seen for almost two days.

Sources say the last person

to see her with a coworker,

when she left her office

at the end of the day.

Angela Reynolds reporting,

Fairfax, Virginia.

So let me

get this straight,

you think that

you could actually

kill somebody in cold blood.

Is bird shit off-yellow?

No, you can't.

You are full of shit.

Probably.

You think in middle

school those Columbine

kids knew they were going to

massacre the student body?

I don't think so.

They were probably

just normal kids

who watched Power

Rangers and TV,

when they played

actual music, that is.

I know, right.

I mean, if someone isn't

born, and I'll insert opinion

saying I don't think

anyone is, but if someone

isn't born a killer, like

how do they reach that point?

You know, how does...

I mean, what happens, you know?

I don't know, a subconscious

rip, animalistic rage,

who really knows?

I just think if you can get

there, you get to that point,

you know?

Most people don't,

but if you do, you do.

Fuck, I don't know.

Let's set up some beer pong.

Teams?

Yeah.

I can't do this

right now, Alice.

Look, I may be mad or we may

not be talking, but I'm here,

I'm here to help if need me.

I'm just not so sure that

you're the most important

thing on my mind right now.

I mean, I care, obviously,

regardless of anything.

But I can barely move.

Call me.

I don't think...

Billy, call me.

Hey, you've reached Alice's

cell phone, leave me a message.

Alice, never mind.

I shouldn't have called

you right now, I'm sorry.

Oh, man, I

can't believe how bad

I railed that customer today.

A Sony.

That guy had no idea.

Well, you

learned from the best.

Yeah.

I will say, you're the best

salesman I've ever seen.

But you have to

admit, I'm all right.

Yeah, you're all right.

So what exactly were you

saying to Billy earlier.

You sure seemed to

have gotten him going.

I didn't get him going.

I mean, we were just

talking about you.

What'd you too hose bags

have to exchange about me?

What?

What kind of way is that

to refer to your friends.

We're your boys, Stan.

We talk because

we care about you.

You talk because you have

nothing else to talk about.

No, we don't.

If you want me to say it, fine,

I'll come right out and say it.

Where's your blue shirt?

My what?

The blue shirt

you wore see Ashley?

Just get in the

car, Christian.

No, there's got

to be a reason that you

don't want to talk about this.

Why?

Tell me this grand significance.

Why do I need a reason?

People

just don't change

clothes after they go out.

- It's weird.

- It's not.

Yes it is.

It's not.

It is not.

The blue wasn't cutting

it, so I went with black.

All right?

I keep an extra one

of my trunk in case

I want to go someplace

after hockey.

Is that OK with you?

- Yeah.

Is that a fucking

problem with you if I

change my shirt, Christian?

No.

Now, if you don't get

in the car right now,

we're going to have a

big fucking problem.

Are you listening to me?

Listen, I understand.

Just shut the fuck

up for one second.

OK?

I'm trying to say

something to you.

Now I'm going to give you

to five to get in the car.

What?

Stanley, man.

What's going on with you?

Did something happen

and you don't want me...

Your mother and I would were

watching the news.

Did you...

Yeah, I saw.

Earlier today, I saw.

Has Stanley seen her lately?

I don't know.

He doesn't really

want to talk about it.

Well, as you well know,

breakups involve a great deal

of pain and confusion.

Well, shit, though, look...

I've said it, my father

said it to me, if it's meant

to be, love will find a way.

And if it's not, there's

a half a world of women

out there waiting

for Billy Klepack.

Thanks, dad.

Of course, when my dad said

to me, he said Tommy Klepack.

But you know, all the same.

It's a real hard thing,

aligning yourself

with someone for the long run,

harder than one would think.

Get up.

Hey, get your ass up.

Christian, you OK?

Oh, stop hitting me, man.

Where's the store?

Off of Interstate 95

where it's always been.

I'm gonna grab a paper towel.

What is that, Palmolive?

Yes.

I have Bactine

in my room, dude.

My mom loves

the anti-bacteria,

let me clean your cut.

Be still.

What happened?

- Look at your shoelace.

No way.

There's no way I tripped

on my own shoelace.

Don' by so hard on yourself.

It's a common joke

because it happens.

You didn't take

me to the hospital.

That's an asshole move.

Do it yourself.

I'm the one cleaning a wound

in my head with dish soap.

I should be mad.

Yeah.

Hey, listen, why didn't

you tell me about Ashley?

I'm not telling

you again, friend.

Why, why is

she missing, Stan?

You know, two days after

you met her, she's missing?

What is that?

I'm going

to Vegas tomorrow.

Stan, did

you talk to her?

To the police?

To her family?

Vegas, or a

trade show, my job.

Oh, my god,

you're fucking making me

feel crazy here, Stan.

Do you think you're crazy?

No, I'm, I'm...

Like she might

have made you feel crazy?

No, Stan, you

are doing it, OK?

You won't tell me what happened,

how the conversation went,

how it concluded.

I don't give a Christ

fuck about your traveling

or any other bullshit

throw-away conversation

you want to bring up, OK?

I want to know what

happened to Ashley now.

Do you think you

might be projecting

your worries onto me?

I mean, you were quick

to come back here.

Maybe you were glad to be out.

Maybe you didn't love her.

No, I did

love Alice, Stan.

I loved Alice very much.

Maybe you didn't.

You sure jetted quick

when things got rocky.

You can damn well bet I

didn't do that with Ashley.

All right, dude, listen,

we all make rash decisions, OK?

Did you make one that

I should know about?

Did you?

Maybe.

I don't know.

Hi, there.

I have a flight leaving

in an hour and 45 minutes.

Can I get my ticket?

Yes, sir, of course.

Name, sir?

Stanley Harold Keller.

Here you go.

Just give me a minute

to look you up, Mr. Keller.

I can help you out.

Gladly.

So do some kind

of meeting in Cleveland?

Business or pleasure?

Oh, just assessing

a situation,

drawing conclusions,

weighing options.

Oh, you're

in insurance claims.

Oh, yeah, in certain respects.

Thank you.

Billy, hey, how goes it.

Sam, hey.

Needed a break from Ohio?

Oh, yeah, you know

Alice I, we broke up.

That's tough, man.

I was wondering

if you could tell

me when Stan might be back.

Well, that's a good

question, and I don't know.

What do you mean?

Well, he didn't

show up today.

He's in Vegas, though.

He is?

At the trade show.

That's news to me.

There's no trade show?

If there was,

I would be there.

And Stan would have

his tuckus parked,

right here, clipboard in hand.

Thanks.

Oh, hey, if you

hear from Christian,

tell him he's going

to be knee deep in it

if he doesn't give

me a call pronto.

Was he supposed

to work today?

Yeah, no call, no show.

Normally, he's

prompt, but not today.

Christian.

Jesus Christ, hey, Christian,

Christian, wake up.

Christian, wake up.

- Leave me alone, Stan.

No, wake up,

wake the fuck up, dude.

It's not Stan, it's Billy.

Look your goddamn pillow.

Hey, look at your pillow.

God, I feel like I'm

standing with my eyes closed.

With Stanley?

With everything,

with Stan, with Alice,

you know, just I'm fucked.

I just feel fucked.

We'll figure

things out with Stan.

But I really think

you should call Alice.

No, if I call her, can just

going to make things worse.

No, it won't.

Yes it will.

I me and I know that it will.

You can't compare

her situation

with what's going on with Stan.

They're different.

He just makes me feel

like I tripped up somewhere

along the way, you know?

Like, I don't want

to be like him.

I don't want to feel

what he's feeling.

You're not like Stan.

Yeah, I know that.

I know.

But hurt can affect

people in strange ways.

And I see Stan, and I'm

afraid of what I might become.

He can't even see five

feet in front of him now.

That's not you.

I love the guy, but

he's got tunnel vision.

I see is hurt, I feel

it, I understand it.

Where is he?

Where the fuck is he?

Somewhere I'm not sure

he can come back from.

Excuse me?

Yes.

- Hi, there.

- Hey.

I'm sort of lost.

I was wondering if I could

borrow you for a second.

Sure.

Well, I'm looking for

the psychology building.

I graduated about a

half a decade ago.

I just, I don't

know, it just seems

like everything has

changed and relocated

every couple of years.

What year did you graduate?

2002.

Did you have Grenier?

I think so.

Yeah, I kind of felt like I

was swimming in the wrong pond,

if you catch my drift.

I mean, I was younger and bar

life seemed more appealing.

Yeah, he definitely

sounds familiar though.

She, she sounds familiar.

Yeah, she.

You gonna help me out?

Or do your second year

psychology classes give you

some sort of heightened

awareness that prevents

you from pointing your finger?

Yeah, the

building's over there.

That wasn't so hard.

All right, man, I'm

going to grab Barbie,

I'll swing back by.

Sounds good.

Hey.

Vegas is warm.

How's the trade show?

Alpine's got some great

decks coming out next year.

I know you're

not in Vegas, Stan.

Do you?

I talked to Sam.

I say I am.

Sam's got to get

his head straight.

Sam's not the one you

need to worry about.

Is that so?

Yeah, it is, and when you get

back, we need to talk, Stan.

Well, I'll be back soon.

It's pretty

quite for a trade show.

What, are you outside?

Everyone needs to catch

a breath of fresh air.

Maybe you need one.

Quit talking

to me in code.

Communicate motherfucker.

Why I got to be

a motherfucker?

Because I care about my boys?

What are

you talking about?

My boys, you guys.

What happened to

Christian's head?

Am I a motherfucker

because I care?

I said what happened

to Christian's head.

Why am I spending my afternoons

getting Christian fucking

stitches, Stan?

He's getting stitches, fuck.

If you think I'm going to

believe that shoelace bullshit,

you are crazier than I thought.

Oh so now I'm a

motherfucker and I'm crazy.

Stan.

I think I'm going

to have to let you go.

Hey.

Hop in.

Billy, you're silly.

I can walk home.

Mom told

me to pick you up,

pooper, so I'm picking you up.

You look morose, Billy.

Morose?

Bigger vocabulary than I do.

Is that bi...

girl being mean to you?

No, it's not

always that simple.

What is it?

You can ramble

on about it, but do

you have some

cartoons or something

that you could catch up on?

I Tevo them anyway.

You wouldn't

understand this, OK?

You're in elementary school.

Mom and dad don't even

know how to use Tevo.

I do.

I don't know.

When you get older, after high

school and college, if you go,

you start to kind of have an

idea of how things need to be.

It's part age, and part

how you were raised.

But you want to feel like your

life is set, that your friends'

lives are set.

They're going to be happy.

And things don't turn

out the way you want.

They're just far

worse than you hoped

and then you feel like

your future is nonexistent.

And these dreams of

cookouts with your friends,

dinner parties,

they just fade away.

It's like a future

that was never there.

The fact is, by my age, you

start to see that people

are just really sad

and that there's

nothing you can do about it.

Is Stan sad?

What do you mean?

Mom says that his

ex-girlfriend is missing.

Did she...

I don't know, I

don't know about Stan.

Here let me take this in.

I can take it.

OK.

Hey, Barbie, let's

keep this conversation

brother-BARBIE, OK?

Yeah, OK.

No Ken either.

Ken's plastic, Billy, he

wouldn't understand English.

Silly me.

Hey, man, you ready to go?

Are you sure you don't

want to try and pick it?

You a locksmith?

No.

Neither am I.

Holy shit, Alice.

Stanley?

Oh, my god, it's been years.

Yeah.

Hi.

Yeah, it has, hi.

What are you doing

here on campus?

I don't...

Well, MB Court has

a base here in town.

I don't know that it is.

Speaking company, car audio,

yeah, so I'm just checking

out the new line, I guess.

Always on the move.

Did you travel alone, or,

did Billy come with you?

No, no, no, just me,

it's purely business.

So you mind if I asked

what happened with him?

Billy?

Yeah, yeah, fill me in.

Billy's not much of

a talker these days,

I guess you could say.

Let's just look around.

If you see anything

weird, just point it out.

We just weren't

aligned anymore.

He wanted to be a writer.

I was into politics.

Doesn't sound

like a deal breaker.

No, it wasn't.

I just felt like he wanted out.

So I initiated it.

Yeah, women usually do.

Huh?

Oh, nothing, it's

just, you know,

women kind of make the

first move, you know?

No, I just mean women

are more empowered

these days, which is good.

It's good, they're making the

moves that men used to make,

you know?

Yeah, I guess.

I just, I feel like you only

live once, you know, and I'm

always going to

love Billy, but I'm

not going to keep loving someone

who doesn't love me back.

I understand that.

I understand that.

So the books are closed

on old Billy Boy, huh?

Yeah.

I can't do it anymore.

I guess that's right.

He's got friends

like you, you know,

he's got good solid friends

that are there for him.

More than I can say.

God,

You're the hottest

woman on campus.

Hi This is Billy's

friend, Stan.

Awesome, it's totally

cool to meet you, bro.

Would you guys have any

interest in going on a hike?

Yeah, that sounds

rocking, man.

Yeah.

I don't have any, I mean, I

don't know anyone around here.

So, I figured,

you know, it might

be nice to see what

calming secluded

places this state has to offer.

Where are you staying?

The Holiday Inn.

Nice.

Yeah, man, we'll catch the

sunset from stellar ground.

Can you leave in an hour?

Oh, yeah, so...

Maybe, maybe he beat

the shit out her, you know.

He beat her up really bad.

Bad slap, he gets some

blood on his hand, you know.

It could be a number of things.

No.

I don't think so.

Maybe it's his blood.

Actually, she was, she was

feisty as hell, you know that.

Listen to

what you just said.

What?

Was, you

just that Ashley was.

And you know what he did.

All the denial aside,

we know what he did.

There has to be some

feasible explanation for this.

Yeah, there is Billy.

You just refuse

to acknowledge it.

Look at it.

Just take it.

Will you take it?

That's blood.

Yeah.

There's blood fingerprints

all over that photo.

I know, but it doesn't...

it doesn't

necessarily mean that.

No, listen to me, man.

I'm assuming whatever

happened that night,

Stan wasn't holding that

picture when it happened.

He was holding it afterwards.

And even after whatever

happened ,

enough blood remained for him

to stain an entire picture.

No fucking way,

he wouldn't do that.

He would not do that.

Stan loved her.

And since you saw

that news story, Billy,

you knew what he did.

Goddamn-it, you know.

There's no other out for this.

There's no other

explanation, Billy.

That's what it is.

Let's just, let's

just take a minute

No, here, are you aware...

Can we take a minute, please,

and just think for a second?

Hey, you ready to go?

Yeah, it's going to be

a little awkward, but, yeah,

let's just go.

Do you want

to get your phone?

Nah, it's

OK, let's just go.

Hi, you've reached

Alice's cell phone,

leave a message after

the tone and I'll

get back to you, thanks.

Hey, Haas, it's me.

I know you need some time.

I just, I really want to

talk to you right now.

You know, it doesn't

need to involve us.

I know there isn't an us,

I know that, you know.

I don't have anyone outside

of where I am to talk to,

and I don't know, I

don't know, maybe it

is, maybe it was about us.

If you could just

hear me out, you know.

If you can...

I just, I don't want to

lose you for good, you know.

I'm sorry, all right?

I am.

I'm, I'm really sorry.

If you could please

just call me back.

I'll be here, I'll be here.

OK.

We need to go

check out Mason's neck?

But how do you know?

Cause I know him.

When the water is coming

up the trail, it's great.

It's terrific.

Hey you, are you all right?

- Why?

- Look at your leg.

It's bleeding.

Oh, that?

That's nothing.

No, no, you're

really bleeding.

I'm a mountain man.

I used to play soccer too.

I don't even notice.

I'm fine.

Really, I have first

aid in the car.

Oh, I feel a little sick.

Mmm, it doesn't get any easier.

These, these permanent.

You'd think it would,

but it doesn't.

No, I'm OK.

Thanks.

Oh, fucking not!

It's fucking gone!

It's fucking gone!

God, fuck.

You sure this is

where they came.

I said no.

Yeah, but it's where

they could have come?

Yes.

Everybody has a place.

This was theirs.

Pull over right over here.

So where would it be?

Point it out.

I think it was

right in that opening up there.

Well, if not

now, never, right?

Yeah.

Oh, no.

- It's...

- Why?

What?

I can't do this

alone, Christian.

It's her.

It's her.

Oh, oh, god, it's her.

Go over there,

just talk to them.

You do it.

I'm not, I'm not...

I'm not going to go.

He's not going to go.

...feeling it right now.

- Christian, you do it.

- It's gotta be you, dude.

Man, I can't.

Just, just, open the door

for us, we'll come in there

and do the rest.

That's not going to happen.

There's no way

that's going to happen.

I can't, I can't

do it, because she's

been looking at you.

You think so?

I think so.

Wow.

Come one, you're

the best looking one.

Oh, shut up.

You got to go.

OK.

I can be your ground support,

but I'm no special ops man.

All right.

Ground support, I'm

fucking going in right now.

- Right, do it.

- I can do it.

Stop, don't make me laugh.

Hello...

Hello.

I'm Stan.

Kelly, nice to meet you, Stan.

Kelly, nice to meet you.

What would your name be?

I'm kind of a germaphobe.

I mean, if you know me,

it's different, but...

Oh yeah.

And last, but certainly

not least, we have...

Ashley.

Ashley, it's very

nice to meet you...

it's very nice to

meet you, Stan.

OK, excellent.

Me and my friends,

the guys over there,

we were just looking for

some nice young ladies

to keep us company.

You make us

sound like hookers.

Oh, no, I didn't...

I'm fucking with you.

I'm just fucking with you.

Yeah, no, I

mean, I could tell.

It's just... yeah.

So you game?

I make a wicked beer

pong partner, seriously.

Is that so?

Yeah.

Well, unfortunately, I

only play with my girls

as my teammates.

You ready to get squashed?

Oh, we'll have

to see about that.

OK.

Yeah.

You girls can really play.

I wasn't

lying to you, kid.

Wait, wait, how

old are you again?

19.

Yeah, well, I'm

20, and I say you can't

call me kid cause I'm older.

Is that so?

Yeah, yeah.

Well, I always make the rules.

- Oh, do you now?

- Mm hmm.

Interesting.

The important rules.

Look, I don't know

who you think you are...

What do you mean?

But I don't know if that's

going to work for me, you know?

That, that works for me.

We have

to call the police.

We will.

I think

we should now.

We will, I promise.

I just don't

know what to think

even if I need to think.

Sometimes, things are

what they are, you know?

She had a ring.

It destroyed his entire world.

I don't think I could ever

kill anybody, especially

if it was someone

that I loved that

much, as much as he loved her.

I don't you know if

you can until it happens.

People don't plan

these things, killing

someone you care so much about.

Should I call

you when he gets back?

Yeah, if he gets home

in the next few hours

I guess, but I doubt he will.

I'm just going

to hit the couch.

Yeah, I know this is all

hard to process, you know.

My days

are gliding swiftly by.

And I, a pilgrim stranger, would

not detain them as they fly,

those hours of toil and danger.

For now we stand

on Jordan's strand,

our friends are passing over...

Lose something?

Stanley, when

did you get back?

An hour ago.

Oh, yeah, that's cool.

Why are you so nervous?

I'm not.

It's just I lost something,

something my grandma gave me.

A trinket from your grandma?

Yeah it was a

little necklace chain.

I bent over and it popped of.

How do you lose

a necklace chain

when you don't wear a necklace?

No, it was in my

pocket, I just got it.

Your grandma's been dead.

So if your grandma's been dead,

how did she manage to give

you a fucking necklace chain?

I don't, I don't know.

You're lying to your

best friend's face.

Please, Stanley, let me

call you some help, man.

No.

Stanley, I'm going

to call you some help.

No.

there's glory on the morrow.

For now we stand

on Jordan's strand,

our friends are passing over,

and just before the shining

shore, we may almost discover.

Christian.

Hey, no, no, no,

no, no. no, no...

Christian, fuck.

No, no, no, no, no, no.

I don't...

Stop.

Billy?

Just stop.

Stop.

I didn't try.

You didn't try?

No, it just happened.

Seems like there's

been a lot of stuff

that's been just happening

lately with you, Stan.

It has.

What am I gonna do?

What do we do?

There's no way.

There's no way, OK?

There hasn't been one

since you killed Ashley.

All right, there Hasn't been one

since, since I got back here.

Fuck, Christian?

How could you, man?

I didn't want to.

I, I did, but I didn't

want to kill Ashley.

I loved her with

all of my heart.

This isn't doing

anything for me, Stan.

Just hear me out, Ashley,

that's all I'm asking.

This is our spot, and there

is no us, don't you understand?

Just come

with me, all right?

Come on.

This just isn't fair.

How?

This isn't fair to me.

What if John saw us here Stan?

Huh?

What if he saw us coming here?

I'll fucking kick his ass.

Now what

requires this backdrop?

Why drag me out here?

Don't be like that.

Be like what, you

dragged me out here.

Come on, Ashley, I'm trying

to extend myself a bit here.

It's a little late, friend.

Don't call me that.

Why, you're my friend

at best, Stanley,

and I'm not even sure

you can handle that.

I have something

that I want to ask you,

but I need you to

just hear me out, OK?

OK.

OK.

Oh, shit I left it in the car.

What, you left what the car?

Nothing, it's just...

Just give me a second.

I just, I got, I got

all mixed up, you know,

like my mind is all mixed up.

Don't justify.

There, on the table,

is an envelope.

Take it.

Stop, don't, don't

look inside of it.

I want to say something to you.

What?

I want to tell

you something, OK?

I want you to kill me.

I need to die.

I'm not going to kill you.

No, you don't understand.

I put that there so

you could have closure.

I did sick things.

Sick things, unforgivable,

which is why it's only fair

that you, that you kill me.

I felt like I was you.

I feel like I was you,

and I was protective.

I thought I was protecting you.

I thought...

What does this mean?

I told you, my heart, I

wanted to talk to you for you.

I thought, I thought, I

thought I could fix what...

What does this mean?

I'm sorry, Billy, I

didn't want to do it.

I saw the ring in her eye.

You saw the fucking

ring in her eye.

What the fuck does

that mean, huh?

She didn't love

you anymore, Billy.

I checked.

How did you check?

How did you fucking check?

Huh?

How did you check?

Stanley?

How did you fucking check?

She told me.

There's no way to

justify the decisions being lost

brings.

A single moment can unbalance.

A single choice can destroy.

But it's experience that

makes us who we are.

And how we process

pain that defines us.

It's just like

heaven, being here with you.

You're like an angel,

too good to be true.

But after all, I love you, I do.

Angel baby, my angel baby.

When you are near me,

my heart skips a beat.

I can hardly stand

on my own two feet.

Because I love you,

I love you, I do.

Angel baby, my angel baby.

Whoo hoo, I love

you, whoo hoo, I do.

No one could love you like I do.

Ooh, whoo-hoo-hoo.

Please never leave

me blue and alone.

If you ever go, I'm sure

you'll come back home.

Because I love you,

I love you, I do.

Angel baby, my angel baby.

Whoo hoo, I love

you, whoo hoo, I do.

No one could love you like I do.

whoo-hoo-hoo,

whoo-hoo-hoo, whoo-hoo-hoo.

Whoo-hoo-hoo, whoo

hoo, whoo-hoo-hoo.
