:15:00
one or two tiny untruths,
and now you're afraid to meet

:15:02
this person that you know
but have never seen

:15:04
because you're not everything
you said you were.

:15:06
What would you do?
:15:07
Is this one of those
Internet things?

:15:08
Well, yes.
:15:09
You meet guys on the Net?
:15:11
Oh, yeah.
:15:12
The computer's
replaced my vibrator.

:15:14
I don't know what
came over me.

:15:16
He gave me his number, and
as soon as I heard his voice,

:15:18
I lied my fool head off.
:15:20
He sounded just like
my favorite uncle Phil.

:15:23
Uncle Phil damage.
:15:24
What did you tell him?
:15:25
That I was 30.
:15:27
No.
:15:28
Good luck.
:15:29
In the right light.
:15:30
If I've had
lots of sleep.

:15:31
And they've had
lots of heroin.

:15:32
Shannon, please!
:15:33
What are you
going to do?

:15:34
Stun him, stick him
in the freezer

:15:36
until I've had
cosmetic surgery.

:15:38
(David)
Tell him the truth.

:15:40
Oh, I hate my mother.
:15:42
Why weren't we warned?
:15:43
Too busy ironing.
:15:47
So how's
the tip money?

:15:50
Fine.
:15:52
Just let me come
and check it out.

:15:54
I'll pretend not
to know you.

:15:57
I'll write something
nice about it in the column.

:16:01
No.
:16:02
(Kryla)
Why not?!

:16:04
Because it's my secret.
:16:05
But you and I have
never had secrets.

:16:07
We do now.

My father left when
I was 11 years old.

:16:20
I was the youngest, so I don't
remember him very well.

:16:22
(David)
My old man made Fred Flintstone
look like Oscar Wilde.

:16:25
(Matt)
Vi's gonna be
at her mom's late.

:16:27
I thought we could
get a case of beer

:16:28
and go over to your
place after we close up.

:16:31
(David)
You aren't going?

:16:32
Vi's mom and I don't
get along so well.

:16:34
So if you're free.
:16:35
I'm kind of tired.
:16:37
I want to see
your artwork.

:16:39
Some other night.
:16:42
Sure.
:16:49
I do have time
for a joint.

:16:51
Excellent.
