My name is Joanne Cole, the one who's in the news.
I don't know what to say.
Well, did you tell the truth?
What? In the news, did you tell the truth?
A portion of it.
I'd like you to tell me the whole truth.
David, I'm still here.
I know, baby.
What
a
fraud. What happened?
Fletcher Ross.
That guy could run tours of the strip joints in the city.
Anything for a vote, eh, Fletch?
David, don't go hang up. Hey, baby, it'll be work, okay?
Please.
Hello?
Hello?
Yeah, speaking.
I'll be right over.
Yeah, you betcha.
Hey, I'm sorry, baby.
Why does it have to be every single night? You never want to be with me.
Did he call, Joanne?
You promised you'd stay home tonight.
Hey, what would you rather have?
Me loafing around here?
Maybe it'd be nice to have some money in the bank, okay?
You said you wouldn't work nights anymore.
Look.
I got a shitload of pressure on me right now, okay?
Payments just went up on the ex -wife's house.
This place is killing me. Two cars.
Don't start with me, okay?
Why not? You never finish with me.
Hey, why don't you take a tranquilizer, okay?
Go to sleep.
I'll be back in a few hours.
David, I don't want to go to sleep.
I want to feel you touch me.
I want to feel like you still love me.
That's all I ever wanted.
I don't care about the cars, the money.
I just want you to be with me.
I need you.
I know you do.
And I'll be back in a few hours, okay?
After I married David, I didn't really have any friends to turn to.
I'd always been sort of a loner.
My parents... Forget it.
I just had David.
What about your parents?
What about them?
Did you talk to them?
My parents just couldn't be bothered.
Nothing I did ever pleased them.
They thought I was a big mistake.
I just wanted them to love me.
Did you begin to feel that nobody loved you, including David?
David thought he had to give me things.
That's how he showed his love. He had to provide.
And when money started getting tight, he got frustrated and withdrawn.
Everything was about the money.
He just let it tear him up inside.
Yeah, six grand.
Looking at the shiny new convertible.
What do you need a new car for, man?
You're married. It's over for you.
Fuck you, Rod.
Fuck.
I didn't need a new car to get this. What is it?
Remember the blonde back at La Brea?
No.
It's her number. She gave it to me.
My husband was in the next room. I know, man.
You kept him busy for me. I appreciate it.
What is it with you?
You've been my partner less than a month, and this is, what, the third
You're a regular horndog.
That's what I like about domestic disturbances.
You got all these sex -hungry housewives out there.
You ought to try it sometime, man.
Oh, thank you.
You got a bad attitude.
That's why we got to take advantage of this.
I'm going to write a book about it.
See,
there you go. You got money on the brain.
You gotta lighten up.
Let's go back to the boulevard.
I got something that's your speed.
What do we got here, a titty bar?
Two guts.
Maybe I'll get lucky and run into Lamberti and Hernandez.
Run the jewels.
Hardly. This guy's a dirtbag, all right? He calls himself a talent agent for
exotic dancing.
He's dealing flesh and drugs.
Recruit young girls, get them high, abuse them, turn them into hookers.
Ecstasy is their drug of choice.
Biggest deal is around.
I have a dream.
To bust these guys big time.
I always like to see cops here.
And girls.
I love it.
Can I offer a drink?
I'll just take the link and let you know.
Look, I'm going to have to put up with this fucking bullshit.
You guys have been coming here for years, and you just let people leave, is
it?
Strictly in the line of duty, sir.
Yeah, sure.
Strictly in the line of duty.
Hey,
kid.
Get on the stage.
I'll let his hypocrisy get to me.
Legitimate business.
Take this girl here.
Three years of ballet.
One year in Vegas.
Four months in county jail.
Booked her myself.
Yeah, well.
What a nice guy.
Takes care of her. Doesn't have a fridge.
Right in the porch.
Is that the license, sir?
Well, you know, I don't really own it. This is the only one here.
What do we got up here?
Oh, nothing. Just, uh, we have a wedding.
You know,
national party.
Come on.
Yeah, I wanted to take that over with a friend of Mr. Ross, but I don't know if
you know that.
Mr. Ross.
Yeah,
well, he's right here, right now. I
haven't
seen him in months.
Well, then do something.
Why don't you tell him? Don't touch him.
I will give every hooker, every stripper, every pimp a registered
It shouldn't be too hard, Bill.
Every one of them is on your payroll.
Sent for the cops?
No. They seem to be the girls.
No, they're here.
That's drug -free.
What's the word?
Everybody here knows and knows a lot. Some of you are fucking with me.
I'll get something special.
You believe that asshole, Lamberton?
Yeah. That prick probably makes more money in a month than I'll save my life.
Tell me something, David.
When you walk into a place like that, are you thinking to yourself, why the
am I married?
No. Because your ass is worth ten.
Ten?
That's pretty impressive.
So is she, pal.
Wonder what she says about you.
She says I'm all she needs.
I was taking it because I was depressed.
The main thing it did was loosen me up. I thought about having sex with a
lot of guys, a lot of different ways.
I thought about seducing a room full of prim guys like judges and lawyers and
doctors.
And they couldn't resist my charms.
And they turned into animals.
Not literally, but wild sex creatures.
And they'd start taking me by force and passing me around from man to man.
I thought about seducing a young guy who's never had sex before.
And I just have to teach him everything.
And I thought about sex with a beautiful woman.
And couples.
You know, sex all the time.
I couldn't stop thinking about it.
Francis, why don't you just shut up, okay?
Come on.
I know I do a good thing to you. My music is so good.
Shut up and you'll be out of here in an hour. Now is not the time for that.
Let's get up, Jerry.
Imagine being cooped up in here for five minutes.
High prize, huh?
Yeah, booby prize.
I met David a year ago.
It was a Tuesday.
I was driving to work. I had this shift at this cocktail lounge.
I was late, so I guess I was leaving.
He pulled me over and he gave me a traffic ticket.
A week later, he paid my fine and left his wife and that was it.
The first few months, David was incredible.
I had never had a man treat me so well.
It was like we were one person.
When the money got tight, we started having problems.
He was always worried about being able to pay the bill.
The mortgage on the house, it was way too high.
So he worked more.
We had less time together.
I made up this total fantasy life.
I made up all these men who paid attention to me.
When did that end it didn't and so the relationship got worse
So I decided I was going to make David pay attention to me like he did when we
were first together
Councilman Fletcher Ross officiated at crowd -breaking ceremonies for the
Angelico Shelter for Abused Children.
Ross described the shelter as one more facet of his Clean Up Our City campaign.
Meanwhile, Ross...
Hey, kid.
I thought you were asleep.
I waited up.
What do you think?
I think you look good.
I thought you might like it.
I like it a lot.
But not now, honey.
Why?
Because I'm tired.
I gotta get a few things straight myself.
The goddamn television is out.
He must have felt rejected.
He was really withdrawn.
I thought that he was unhappy with me and that he'd grown tired of me.
I didn't know that we were on the verge of a breakthrough in our relationship.
I kept going over every moment. Where had I gone wrong?
What had I done that made him move into it?
Who is it?
Intercontinental Cable.
You reported a problem?
Do you need to come inside?
Yeah, I need to check all the connections inside and out.
Do you want something to drink?
Uh, no thanks.
Are you sure?
If it's not too much trouble.
No trouble at all.
So what do you got?
What would you like?
What's your husband drink?
Beer, I guess.
Then what'll it be?
He's a cop?
That's right.
A boy's fantasy come true.
So he's always gone, fighting crime.
Sounds dangerous.
I like danger.
I... I'm married.
We have a lot in common.
Thank you.
so did he fix the problem i'm sorry it'll never happen again
i swear i'm sorry
That's how I found out.
He liked to watch.
That's what really turned him on.
That was the secret.
Watching me have sex with other men.
Doing everything nasty with them.
He loved it all.
That's how it all got started.
Whose idea was the ad?
Yours or his?
Mine, I think.
I'd said it as a joke, but David was all for it.
Beautiful young woman seeks generous, successful executive for very discreet
evening interviews.
I'd like that to run indefinitely.
You can bill it to my home.
You have my address, don't you?
It wasn't the money, ever.
It was like therapy for both of us.
I know this is going to sound strange to a lot of people, but it saved our
marriage.
And we were two people who loved each other very much.
We still do.
We have power.
Smile for me, baby.
All
right.
How about parting those lips?
and you are one sexy woman.
Wow. You look fantastic.
Yeah.
Me too.
You sure you want to go through with this, Joanne?
So enjoy yourself and remember,
I'm right in the next room.
I think he's here.
Hi,
Ken.
Court went a little longer than I expected.
Come on in.
Thank you.
What a nice choice I only pay for the best
You're
a lawyer you could say that what would you say?
I guess I would say I'm an assistant DA.
I'm impressed.
Well, some girls find my position intimidating.
Come on, a sexy guy like you?
Do you have some glasses for this?
Wouldn't you be more comfortable in the bedroom?
Actually, if you don't mind, Joanne, do you mind if we just talk for a while?
I don't understand the pressure.
I have no idea.
I've been in the DA's office for six years.
I mean, the bullshit you got to put up with.
This is a really nice place you have.
You have the sexiest voice I have ever heard.
Do I?
They say that intelligence is an aphrodisiac to some people.
Do you have this effect on everyone?
I wish.
I interrupted.
You were talking about your job.
The usual.
Office politics.
Egos.
Everybody's own ambitions.
Meaningless stuff.
Don't stop.
How long have you been doing this?
Long enough to know how to make a lawyer drop his briefs.
Did you enjoy that?
Just now?
No, I know you enjoyed it now.
I mean before.
Before?
Before it was incredible.
Every time you touched him, I swear, I could feel it.
Me too.
Especially when he was licking inside my thigh.
How was it different?
From you me You
really want to know yeah mrs. Cole I really want to
know he was Totally
unselfish He really got into how I felt He kept touching
me stroking me
Till I thought I was going to explode.
It's weird.
But it was all about making me feel good.
Maybe he came here tonight to prove he could make someone else happy.
Yeah.
Or maybe he was just looking to get laid.
We really accepted each other for
what we were.
And that was great.
The two of us were together, completely together.
Well, not exactly just the two of you.
How many others were there in the beginning?
At first it was one or two a week.
Almost all of them were married.
All these lonely guys looking for something more than they got at home.
The same thing I wanted.
Come in Nice to meet you Thanks for having us
Pleasure
No, ma 'am.
It's been pretty tough.
For me?
You got it.
What? I said, do you speak any German?
No, I never went to college or anything.
I wanted to, but my parents didn't want to waste their money.
Hmm.
You've been denied so many wonderful things, Joelle.
I could buy you a palace.
Do you know that?
You could leave this.
You'd never have to worry about money again.
It's very sweet, Ingrid, but I like it here.
Why do you do this?
Sleep with just anybody.
So I can meet nice people like you?
I wouldn't do it if I didn't want to.
I really felt sorry for Ingrid.
I knew that she was me if I hadn't found a way to get out.
But I found a way to be happy.
And David loved me.
We could have gone on like that for the rest of our lives.
Yeah, David.
My name's Lamberti here.
Listen, uh, I need your help, guy.
I'm under a lot of heat. I got Fletcher Ross sent over some of your kids today.
So what?
Well, so, uh, I need you to get them off my back.
Look, I know how you like to watch the girls dance, but I'm a generous man.
I'm in your favor. I'm not asking for anything free. I don't need anything
you. So go screw yourself.
What's that all about?
Eh, nothing.
Just, uh, I'm a lunatic.
Can you believe these bastards want to cut our pay?
Like we don't have enough to put up with around here?
Hey, it happens every year. It's just talk.
We put our lives on the line every day for these assholes, and look what we get
back, huh?
I should have gone to medical school like I wanted to. It's all the money.
I thought all you cared about was money.
Rod, there's some things in life money just can't buy.
Like what?
Love. And a perfect woman.
Come on in.
Thanks.
You're a friend of Judge Keaton's? Yes.
He was right about you.
You're a lawyer?
Me? No, I'm a doctor.
Really? What type?
I'm a heart specialist.
A heart specialist?
I've heard that a glass of wine every night keeps you healthy.
Is that true?
Sure.
Here's to our health.
You want the lights on?
Or off?
Any way you want them.
I think we'll keep them on.
I love doctors.
They always take such good care of themselves.
They're always in such great shape.
They spend a lot of money keeping in shape.
I don't think so.
There's some things money just can't buy.
That's funny.
My partner was saying the same thing today.
Your partner.
I didn't know doctors had partners.
I met my nurse.
Oh, your nurse.
He's your partner.
Oh, well.
Then I guess we'll just have to bring her along too next time.
You put up a deck here.
You tired or what?
Yeah, that one, right?
Hey, officer, I'm not getting paid shit running for it.
Well, it's not money, so you figure it out.
Oh, yeah.
The big date.
The question is, how wasn't she?
Does that mean she was good?
Good?
Oh, man, she did everything.
There's not one thing she didn't do.
You're full of crap. She was probably 55 with loads of kids.
Let me tell you something, partner.
She did things that your wife would never, ever do.
So what did you tell me about her?
It was wild.
I laughed at her out.
Brad was a great partner for both of us.
And David didn't mind?
No.
Did he ever get tired of watching?
Not really.
But after a while, he wanted me to watch with him.
So we could make love in front of the screen.
And basically he wanted to do what we saw.
I would be the woman on the screen.
And he would be the man.
Or whoever.
And that way we could share the benefits of our education.
I'll be there as soon as I can.
Just make sure the tabs on the tape aren't broken.
And press play and record.
Good. See you later, babe.
Forget it, Dave. I never met a woman who could work a VC.
This is no ordinary woman.
If people don't lock their doors, I guess they want you to come in.
I didn't know it was unlocked.
Are you who I think you are?
You expecting somebody else?
No.
Then I'm the one.
I'm sorry.
Can you tell me your name again?
It's not the name, but the money that matters, right?
My money's as good as anybody else's.
Let me fix you a drink.
What can I get you?
Let's go see what we have.
I already have what I want.
Awaking time.
Do you know what this is?
Hell?
Huh? Beautiful young woman.
Thinking.
Generous. Successful vacuum.
Very discreet. You see?
That's not so bad.
Do you want it any tighter?
Didn't do nothing.
David.
This lady invited me here.
Did she do anything to you?
No. Are you sure?
I just want him to go.
So this lady's your girlfriend?
Or is it your wife?
Just get the fuck out of here.
You don't know what you're missing, honey.
Shit.
Okay.
That night really scared me.
Up until then, it had been people I liked.
Civilized people.
Certainly nobody I had to be afraid of.
David knew that things would never be the same after that.
He tried to pretend that things would go back to normal, but he knew better.
One thing I know is with Alan, we can work here.
Hey, it's William, you know
I'll tell when you're lucky.
Hey, time to go.
You're the one, Verity.
So who's the guy Lombardi who called?
You heard that one, huh?
Mm -hmm.
Guys, nobody.
Scum. Forget it.
What was that weird message all about?
Nothing I can't handle.
Are you into politics or do you just like my campaign?
Well, I like what you do for women.
And looking around the office, I see that you hire mostly women.
I do what I can.
I believe that politicians can make a difference.
And they're not out for themselves how everybody says they are.
Maybe we can use you a little more.
Well, feel free to call me anytime.
And overtime is no problem.
Good.
Sometimes I do need your help at night.
Sorry, Fletch. I didn't know if anyone was here.
Hello, David.
How you been?
Diane, give me a cup of coffee, will you? It's black.
Business as usual, eh, boss?
You gotta keep the followers happy.
Especially around election day. Yeah, those livings, too.
Hey, David, I'm on kind of a tight schedule.
What can I do for you?
Actually, Fletch, I think it's something I can do for you.
Really?
Guys and me have been talking, and we decided, you know, you've done some real
good things for the force over the years, and we'd sure like to see you
the next mayor.
You need all the support I can get.
So we want to start helping you close down some of them damn strip clubs.
Get in there, look for violations, make it real difficult for the customers to
enjoy themselves, you know?
What's the catch?
We're worried about pay cuts.
Don't worry, David.
There'll be no pay cuts.
Here's the copy, sir. Thank you.
Diane, there are some pullers in the Goober County Outer Office. Would you
those for me, please?
You sure can pick them.
Still married?
Yeah.
I heard you got married again.
Yeah.
You don't seem too thrilled about it.
No, it's okay. It's a good arrangement.
But there's some things in life you gotta leave home to get. You know what I
mean? Yeah.
Tell me about it.
Heck, I was with some girl last night. I gotta tell you.
I've always been a weakness for beautiful women.
This one was flawless.
But I should push on.
Hey, wait a minute.
Tell me about her.
What, the wife?
Oh, dickhead.
The girl last night.
Oh, that's the damnedest thing. I thought about it in a newspaper, an ad.
What, an alcohol case?
No, no.
This is a freelance situation.
Very exclusive.
Okay.
Can we just get serious for a second?
Listen.
Everything can come off tonight.
Except the mask.
Why? I don't want to wear it. I'll feel silly.
And I don't want your face on the tape.
You didn't say anything to me about wearing a mask. No, because this is my
Oh, I see.
This is for some friend of yours, right? Some cop so he gets to show it to all
his friends?
No, Joanne.
Then I want to know what this is all about.
This is not just about us anymore. Not since the other night.
It's for our protection.
It's a one -time deal.
And then our lives are going back to normal.
Tell me what's going on.
Let's all just have fun, okay?
I'm your wife.
Trust me, baby.
I know how the world works and I know what I'm doing.
I've had every woman I ever wanted.
Then go home.
You don't need me.
I don't know who I am.
Not so far.
And I don't know who you are.
We have all the same friends.
Do we?
I look pretty important, don't I?
I keep this whole damn city running smoothly.
Keep all the women like you in the dark.
Leave them all to me. You might even say I...
He's gutsy.
Hey, great.
Well, fuck it, man. I'll tell you, it's just great.
And plenty of close -ups.
Yeah.
I love it. You know what I feel?
I feel vindicated.
I thought you would.
No, I see it.
There's two things we can work around.
One second.
Money.
We're in the same business.
You and me.
And your wife.
We got the same animal instincts.
Those two kinds of animals.
The ones that eat.
And the ones that get eaten.
You know what I want to see?
I want to see Fletcher Ross mauled.
And then eaten.
Can you dig it?
You're getting ahead of yourself.
First, we've got to discuss terms.
All right.
What are you talking about, terms?
The tape's yours.
For 50 grand.
In cash.
By Friday.
Are you nuts?
I thought I was talking to a reasonable man. Where the fuck do you think I'm
going to get a hold of 50 grand?
You got connections.
Hey.
Why should I give you a goddamn nickel?
You're right.
Fine. All I got to do is take you to the cops.
And I know plenty of cops.
Yeah, me too.
And that got me thinking. I mean, I've been on the force, what?
Seven years.
Seven years without one reprimand.
So who are they going to believe?
You? Or me?
You got any proof?
Yeah. I got the air.
I don't mean shit.
Oh, yeah, you got the word of the Melcho Hernandez.
But I bet you 50 grand you couldn't get that twisted son of a bitch anywhere
near a police station.
Stay in touch, huh?
Don't you think you should tell me what's going on?
Dry your teeth. Tell me if I made it too strong.
Are you blackmailing Fletcher Roth?
Personal?
No.
But if it suits our purposes to help one of his enemies, then who cares?
Guy's a first -class prick.
David.
Joanne.
You're looking at a good, clean cop, okay?
Nobody puts the screws on me.
On us.
Just turning the tables, okay?
I don't know.
In fact, I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. Because it's all taken care
of.
Rather neat little piece of work on my part.
Open wide.
I had my doubts.
I trusted David to work things out.
It was beyond his control.
Lamberti was as determined to keep himself in action as we were.
As a policeman, David should have known.
If you bring the streets into your home, you can't control what's going to
happen.
Melcho.
Talk.
What about him?
No.
Well, um, the thing is, uh,
buddy, I'm not, uh, going to have to ask you for a loan.
No problem.
Hey, that's good.
What are you talking about?
It's cheaper.
What if he changes his mind?
He's a businessman.
He'll take the easy way out.
What about rocks?
Fletcher's no fool.
He'll find some new cause to focus in on.
Reductive.
Let me talk to her. Then get rid of me.
Go out and see what...
Ingrid, what is it?
Please, darling, I have to talk to you. It's very important.
I can't talk to you. Not now. You have to leave. I tried calling.
Look, I have tickets.
I'm taking you to France. I've got everything planned. You don't have to
about the things. Ingrid, I can't leave. Not now.
Oh, but I'll buy you clothes. I'll take care of you.
I can't. But I love you. Ingrid, no.
Ingrid, guess what?
We're not interested in your fucking problem.
David, what do you think you're doing?
This is an emergency. Please help me.
I saw a man at the house of my friend.
He's got a gun.
Yeah.
650 Paloma Avenue in Wooden Hill.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Where the hell was she going to take you?
France.
That's got to be him.
Okay, let him in.
Just make sure he's alone, all right?
Hey.
Hey. Yeah.
Glad you could make it.
You got all of it?
Every cent.
Well, I guess you're the girl that started all the fuss.
Hello.
I understand you're going to become a big video star.
Unlock the case, Lemberty.
You gonna offer me a drink?
Just open the goddamn case.
David, we're gonna be partners.
You gotta learn to trust me.
Feast your eyes.
Okay.
Give me the tape.
Tape?
Let it be a tape.
What's a fucking videotape?
All right.
Put it in the briefcase.
Don't shoot. Don't shoot.
It's my part.
What the fuck's going on here, David?
That maniac broke into my house.
What? Is this your house?
It was after my wife. Your wife? Who's going to kill me, Rod?
Why don't you tell them about the blackmail scam?
Tell them about the...
Videotapes. Your wife making it with all of her gentlemen friends.
Talk about this at the station, huh? Yeah, if I talk, I tell them everything.
Hear me?
And that's how it goes down, partner.
Let's go.
Yeah, yeah.
Quite the, uh...
And how did you feel when the media got hold of your story?
I didn't realize that was such a big deal.
I didn't know our story would attract so much attention.
I wasn't prepared for any of it.
And from what I hear, there are dozens of public and private figures that would
do just about anything to keep their name out of it.
I wouldn't know anything about that.
Mr. Craven?
I can't comment about that.
The office is not ready to release any information about the case. What can you
tell us about the videotape?
I can't tell.
But the people who have seen the tape have identified many of the people
involved. What do you think about that?
I can't comment. Well, what about Fletcher Ross? Judge Keaton, members of
police department?
No comment. What about the black book?
No comment. Mr. Craven, these people are witnesses to a crime and under state
law their names have to be made public. Are you aware of that?
Wait a minute.
What crime?
Mr. Van Horn, as the cold attorney, you should be well aware of the charges
being brought against you.
Prostitution and extortion.
There is no prostitution.
No extortion.
No crime of any kind. What about the videotape?
Okay, I'll come to that.
What about the black book?
I'll answer all your questions. Just give me a chance to tell the truth.
What has been characterized as a crime perpetrated by the cold is actually a
tragedy. What has been called perverseness is underneath all the tar
feathers, really a love story, pure and simple.
What we have here is a loving couple, compatible in every way except in the
bedroom. Joanne Cole suffers from excessive sexual desire, nymphomania, a
medical condition.
induced and exacerbated by the use of the drug Primac, which was prescribed to
her by a medical doctor.
Because of the deep love that this couple felt for one another, they dealt
this blow of their marital stability in a sane and rational way.
Accommodation.
If this had been a wasting illness, David Cole would be praised for
his wife's needs.
He would have been called a hero, and she would have been a saint.
She took her treatment, her therapy in a safe environment, a clinical
environment entirely under the supervision of her husband.
They needed and depended on one another because they loved each other.
There's a black book with names and dates and dollar amounts.
Heaps of videos of judges, politicians, and lawyers in bed with your client. How
does all this square with your therapy defense?
These other people?
Their names, their prestige were irrelevant to the cold.
The camera was David's way of assessing his wife's condition. It was as clinical
as an x -ray or an MRI.
Look, I hope that everybody who hears the cold story will recognize the
commonality of it and perhaps relate it to travails in their own lives.
Then I think the public will react generously, not just with sympathy.
but with understanding.
They

T -shirts with your picture on it. You've been on radio shows. You've been
national television.
You're a celebrity now.
It's incredible, isn't it?
Now that you've accepted the plea bargain, are you going to put all this
you?
No. I think it'll be kept alive for a long time.
Why?
Because I think it fulfills a need.
I think a lot of people would like to experience my story firsthand, but they
can't. Or they won't.
And so the more details they hear, the more real the experience becomes for
them.
What about the videotape?
Did Fletcher Ross's resignation and withdrawal from the mayor's race have
anything to do with you?
All I know is what his statement said, that he had some sort of medical
Beyond that, I wouldn't presume to comment on his motives.
So what are your plans?
Our plans?
We've had a lot of nice offers.
I think we're going to go to Barbados for a while.
I think we'll work things out on the beach.
Have some fun.
You're welcome to join us if you'd like.
Well, if you had a chance to do it all over again, would you do it again?
I'd leave out a few things, but overall, sure.
I got what I always wanted, didn't I?
Which was?
Love.
Well, I guess that sums it up.
Is there anything else you wanted to say?
Yeah.
