1:14:00
- [ Man ] You open ?
- Yeah.

1:14:04
[ Randal ]
Aw, that's all bullshit, man.

1:14:06
- You know what
the real problem here is ?
- l was born ?

1:14:09
- You should shit or get off the pot.
- l should shit or get off the pot.

1:14:12
- Yeah, shit or get off the pot.
- What are you talking about ?

1:14:14
I'm talking about this thing you have,
this inability to improve
your station in life.

1:14:18
- Fuck you !
- it's true, man.

1:14:20
You sit there and blame life
for dealin' you a cruddy hand,

1:14:22
never once accepting responsibility
for the way your situation is.

1:14:25
- What responsibility ?
- All right, if you hate this job
and the people...

1:14:28
and the fact that you have to come in
on your day off, why don't you quit ?

1:14:31
- Like it's that easy.
- it is. You just up and quit.

1:14:34
There's other jobs.
They pay better money.

1:14:36
You're bound to be qualified
for at least one of 'em.
So what's stoppin' you ?

1:14:39
- Leave me alone.
- Oh, you're comfortable, right ?

1:14:41
This is a life of convenience for you,
and any attempt to change it...

1:14:44
would shatter the pathetic microcosm
you've fashioned for yourself.

1:14:47
Oh ! Like your life's any better.
1:14:49
I'm satisfied with my situation for now.
You don't hear me complaining.

1:14:52
You, on the other hand,
have been bitching all day.

1:14:54
Thank you. Why don't you
go back to the video store ?

1:14:56
- it's the same thing with Veronica.
- Leave her out of this !

1:14:58
You date Veronica because it's
convenient and she's low maintenance.

1:15:01
But meanwhile,
all you ever do is talk about Caitlin.

1:15:04
You carry a torch for a girl
you dated in high school.

1:15:06
- in high school, for God's sakes.
You're 22.
- Leave me alone !

1:15:09
If you want Caitlin, then talk
to Veronica and be with Caitlin.

1:15:12
If you want Veronica,
then be with Veronica.

1:15:14
But don't pine for one
and fuck the other.

1:15:17
Man, if you weren't
such a fucking coward--

1:15:19
If l wasn't such a fucking coward.
1:15:21
It must be great to have this ability
to simplify things the way you do.

1:15:24
- Am l right or what ?
- You're wrong !

1:15:26
Things happened today. Things that
probably ruined my chances with Caitlin.

1:15:29
Oh, what, the dead guy ?
She'll get over fuckin' a dead guy.

1:15:32
Shit, my mom's been fuckin' a dead guy
for 30 years. l call him ""Dad.""

1:15:36
Caitlin and l can't be together.
It's impossible.

1:15:38
Melodrama comin' from you seems about
as natural as an oral bowel movement.

1:15:42
What do you want me to say ?
""Yes, some of the things
you're saying are true"" ?

1:15:45
That's the way things are.
They're not gonna change.

1:15:47
- Make 'em change.
- l can't, all right ?

1:15:50
Jesus, will you leave me alone ?
1:15:51
I can't make changes in my life
Like that. lf l could, l would.

1:15:54
But l don't have the ability
to risk the comfortable situations...

1:15:57
on the big money
and the fabulous prizes !

1:15:59
- Who are you kidding ? You can so.
- Jesus H. Christ ! l can't !
