Life · Season 1
See that car... not here. That building... not here. Not actually here, just more likely to be here than to not be here. That dog... not here. That girl... not here. Too bad about that. This street... this city... everything... not here.
If you're not here, how come I can still see you?
What would you come back as? Reincarnation. Don't limit yourself, you can choose an animal.
This one time should be plenty, thank you.
I'd like to come back as a giant Flemish rabbit. 15 pounds of pure bunny. Or a whale! Can you imagine being a whale, thousands of feet under water? Can you imagine that?
Is it quiet down there?
So everyone going to that Zen center was just completely screwed up, right?
People go there seeking peace. People seek what they don't have. Only troubled people seek peace.
[voice-over] The Buddha was asked if he ever felt anger. "Of course," said the Buddha. The Buddha was asked if he ever felt the desire to strike another. "Of course," said the Buddha. "But if I am connected to all things," said the Buddha, "hurting another is hurting myself. And how does that better me?"
Because it just does. [tosses tape out window and drives away]
I want to ask you for your forgiveness. All that time I was in prison I was angry. I was angry at you, but we were so young when it happened, you were so young. Anyone would've done what you did.
Charlie...
Let me finish ... I was angry at the wrong person and now I'm asking for your forgiveness.
The first 6 months I was in solitary, I did push-ups everyday and I never talked to myself. The next 6 months? I stopped doing push-ups and I confess I did talk a little to myself. The 6 months after that, those next 6 months, Kyle, you'll wanna know what happened then!
Is that a real gun?
Yes, it is.
Can I touch it?
No, you cannot.
He wants to be a policeman when he grows up.
You ever shoot anybody?
Violence against one, is violence against all. Violence against all, is violence against myself.
Yeah. But did you ever shoot anybody?
Nobody. [leans in closer] That didn't have it coming.
[While Ted and Charlie take Rachel back to Charlie's house]
Ted?
Yeah?
If anyone tries to stop us, go ahead and take my gun and shoot them dead on the spot, you hear me.
I'm not talking to you!
You just did.
What's with that car?
It's just an object — doesn't have any meaning. Even if it did, it would be in Italian, so I wouldn't understand it anyway.
I saw that commercial, the moth on the cotton ball.
It's a butterfly on a cloud.
Oh... now I get it. [pause, touching murder victim] Frozen solid.
Do you have to touch everything?
Who do you like? For the killing?
Oh... well the research assistant had means and the animal rights group had motivation.
Married? The dead guy, was he married?
No.
Then the assistant is your killer. Human nature. Men and women working together always end up banging and most people are killed by the person they're banging.
Well, that's just not true.
Yeah, it's a fact. Come on, Crews, back me up on this.
Well, you two work together. When you have sex who's going to kill who?
If I have sex with him you're going to kill me immediately.
[looks at Tidwell] She's an aggressive female.
That was your partner... she says there's a dead guy... she wants to know if you want to catch who killed him.
I think you might wanna help us.
And why's that?
You want the short answer or the long answer?
Short.
'Cause.
Okay, the long.
Because I am about three seconds from deciding that I just do not like you.
You don't need locks for a prison. Just prisoners.
