s the neighbourhood gigolo? Well, Lefty boy, about this Valerie Blake. Is she, you know...? Kristy. Did you hear that? Kris? Oh, my God. Hello, Jake. Is it all right that I came in? - How did you find me? - I've been watching you. You must know, I don't make a habit of walking into people's houses. It's OK. You're frightened. I don't know. I... I think I'm experiencing an emotion that hasn't been defined yet. The more I try to explain to you why and how I came to be here... ...the less we'd both understand it. - Probably. I'll just say that I have a very deep and certain feeling about you. - Do you believe in destiny? - From now on, I will. We were meant to be. You've long felt like something was missing. You were carrying with you a void. I was born to fill it. We can't help it. Our lives up to now have been the prelude to this moment. Now it's happened, and all that emptiness you felt is gone. It's not wrong. No guilt. It's destiny. You couldn't prevent it. No guilt, only pleasure. You don't need anything else for the rest of your life. - We have no choice? - We have no choice. We're destiny. Jake, you're dreaming again, sweetie. Babe! Babe, what happened? Bad dream. Why couldn't I accept who I was, what I was and where I was? Why couldn't I be like everyone else on the train? Were they mindless drones following the scent of money to a senseless end? Or bearers of a great secret that allowed them to rejoice in this life that I was so unwilling to embrace? And what was the deal with that weird dream? So many questions. So few answers. 17, 18. What's the big deal? What do you expect? You've been here a year. Five, ten years, you'll be cranking this crap out in your sleep. I don't intend to be writing ads ten years from now. - Oh, what? This is just temporary? - Yeah, very. I had the same feelings at your age. I actually even quit once. - Did you? - To write a book. - Yeah? - Yep. And I built six birdhouses, put on 20lb, watched 5,000 hours of TV, wrote a page and a half, called Howard, got my old job back. Everybody tries it and everybody comes back. The rare individual breaks out. But it's too infrequent to warrant consideration. Forget it. Well, you're looking at the rare individual, because I'm busting out. Listen. I measure my life in degrees of happiness. I'm supporting my family in a way that makes me happy. I've got a nice house. I've got a real nice car. And, once a year, I write an ad that I'm proud of. - And that's what you want? - No, that's what I take. You never get what you want. The guys who jump off the bridge on their 40th birthdays are the ones who want more than they will ever get. - You depress the shit out of me. - Yeah? Consider what I do to myself. He was my boss. I secretly believed he was terrified that I might make something of myself outside the field. If I did, he'd be reminded of his own failures. The last thing I needed was a 36-year-old manic depressive begrudging me my youth. I was frightened enough that it was evaporating. Get used to it, pal. It only gets worse. - Have you ever held a baby before? - No. - Do you want to? - Yes. Sit over here. Kristy, over here right now. Now. No, not later, now. Sex now. Babe, we're going to have sex now. Can we have sex now? You want to mate with me? You want to mate? Sorry, guys, take a hike. Russ. What I'm going to do to your daughter tonight... Kristy? I'm going to sleep now, babe. So when you come in, be careful not to wake me, because I'm really tired. OK? I'm just... I'm just dog tired. And I've got a big day tomorrow. One of the stupidest and least effective methods of seducing a woman. The logic is that, by making myself seem uninterested in sex, she'll be challenged.
