:02:00
Thanks. I also want to
thank you for your idea.

:02:02
It was very helpful.
I changed it a little.

:02:04
Now the killer cuts off body pieces
and makes his victims eat them.

:02:08
Caroline has this great tattoo of a snake
swallowing its own tail, and...

:02:11
- Ourobouros.
- I don't know what that means.

:02:14
The snake. It's called Ourobouros.
:02:17
I don't think so. But it's cool for my
killer to have this modus operandi...

:02:20
...because when he forces the woman
who's really him to eat herself...

:02:23
...he's also eating himself to death.
:02:25
I'm insane.
:02:26
- I'm Ourobouros.
- I don't know what that word means.

:02:29
- I've written myself into my screenplay.
- That's kind of weird, huh?

:02:33
It's self-indulgent. It's narcissistic.
:02:36
It's solipsistic. It's pathetic.
:02:39
I'm pathetic.
I'm fat and pathetic.

:02:41
I'm sure you had good reasons, Charles.
You're an artist.

:02:44
It's because I'm too timid to speak to
the woman who wrote the book.

:02:47
Because I'm pathetic.
:02:49
Because I have no idea how to write.
Because I can't make flowers fascinating.

:02:54
Because I suck.
:02:55
- Hey, am I in the script?
- I'm going to New York.

:02:59
I'll meet her. That's it.
That's what I have to do.

:03:02
Don't get mad at me for saying this...
:03:04
...but Bob's having a seminar
in New York this weekend.

:03:06
So if you're stuck...
:03:09
And she said,
"Laroche is such a fun character."

:03:09
And she said,
"Laroche is such a fun character."

:03:13
No shit, I'm a fun character.
:03:15
Who's gonna play me?
:03:16
Well, I've gotta write
the book first, John.

:03:19
Then, you know, they get somebody
to write the screenplay.

:03:21
Hey, I think I should play me.
:03:24
Most people yearn for something
exceptional, something so inspiring...

:03:29
...that they'd want to risk everything
for that passion, but few would act on it.

:03:34
It was very powerful...
:03:37
...and it's intoxicating to be
around someone so alive.

:03:42
Come on, just follow me.
They're right nearby.

:03:45
Okay.
:03:57
Can I ask you a personal question?
:03:59
Look, we're not lost.
