Am I a good actress?

Yeah,
you're great.

Yeah, but you have
to say that.

What if I suck
and no one tells me,

and I just never
get a real part?

Well, you'll stop acting and
you'll pursue a career as a voyeur.

I'm good with that.

Doesn't pay much,
though.

- I'll support you.
- Sucker.

Better start laying off
those cards, then.

So you'll still love me
even if I'm a failure?

- Babe, you are a failure.
- Mean!

[chuckles] And I still
love you.

- The question is...
- Yeah?

Will you still love me
if you're a success?

Of course!

Will you still love
me if I'm a success?

And rich,
and powerful,

and a bitch
with no feelings?

Will you still send me
naked pictures?

Yeah.

Then I will
always love you.

Sam, you must get out there
and do something.

I work two jobs
already.

[scoffs] I'm not
talking about work,

- you work far too much.
- [quietly] Okay.

And you waste all your time
on that Internet, you know,

cutting up those newspapers
and putting them together.

It's no good.
It's strange.

And why are you wasting your
life washing dishes for me?

Hmm?

I mean, why am I
hiring you?

You know, I should sell this
place and go back to Scotland.

But no, no, no,
I have to look out for you.

What about
your French kids?

[sighs] Look.

Do me a favor.

Try something new, mm?

Meet a girl.

I know what it's like
to be between two countries.

And believe me,
you can only live in one.

Whatever it was,

Bunch of boxes

Those must've been there

Um...

Wanna grab a cup of coffee

Come on. I wanna

Jesus, Sam.

I'm so sorry.

Couldn't protect her.

It was a gas leak.

That was a freak

I'm so sorry.
I've been talking this whole time,

- Oh.

Aren't you
really late?

Oh, no, I was just...

building in a hard out in

- And you don't.
- Not yet.

So what brought you
to L.A.?

I think Georgia
is alive.

Wait, I thought you...

- just said Georgia died in the fire.
- I know.

All right, this is gonna
sound absolutely insane.

But... I think she changed
her look completely.

Dyed her hair,
removed her tattoos,

and she goes by
Lauren Clerk now.

Jimmy's client?

Like, the 8th lead
of the movie?

I think so.
Maybe.

[chuckles] How is that
even possible?

Have you ever tried to look up
Lauren Clerk's background?

All right, where
she went to high school,

She was thinking,
"Who's this fucking guy?"

No. It was her.

Okay, I'm trying to give you
the benefit of the doubt,

but were you not
at the party I was at?

Why on earth would you
think that was her?

It was the necklace.

She was wearing the
necklace that I gave her.

It's a single diamond
on a chain.

Oh, my God!
A million girls have that necklace.

I had that necklace
when I was 16.

If it was her,
why wouldn't she acknowledge you?

I don't know.

Maybe it's because
Lauren is not Georgia,

and you are
just batshit.

Yeah. That's why
I came to L.A.

I was in a band.
We actually got a record deal.

Couldn't handle
success. Broke up.

- Why?
- It was a whole like Behind the Music thing.

One of us got

one of us was

You can be reborn.

Easy on the religion.

No, after that.

Stalker, but still

So why are you

Because you rejected me

Probably not.

Love exists in a

Fine.

But when I'm in surgery,

your place is
in the waiting room.

Will you please...

cut the fake doctor shit
and fake cop shit?

You wanna take care
of the job?

Please, Bill.
Take care of it.

Just so we understand.

I only take assignments
from the head physician.

Uh-huh. And just
so you understand,

Ivan is not gonna be
around much longer.

So finish the job.

Collect the check.

And I never want
to see you again.

Understood?

And hey, Bill.

If you ever talk shit
about my brother again...

I'll feed you
your own balls.
