[Jen leaves her room with Lip spotting her]
Hey, I- [She runs off to elevator losing Lip] Fuck, fuck, fuck...
[He runs down emergency stairs meeting her in lobby walking after her]
Hi. Thought I lost you. Um. Uh, hey, could you wait up? I- I'm- I'm supposed to- to be with you.
My sober companion, yeah, I know, I got it. I'm just going for a little walk. I-
[They're walking across bridge over Chicago river] Hey, you could slow down a little bit?
You seem like a nice kid. I just- I just need some space, all right?
Yeah, I'm not sure that's such a good idea.
Actually, it's a great idea. See, this is like a mini-vacation for me.
Mm-hm.
Got no work, no husband, no screaming kids. No one knows I'm in town, so I'm- I'm anonymous here. Yeah, I'm- I just- I just- I need some alone time.
I'm concerned you might drink.
Don't be concerned, bunny.
Look, does that mean you are gonna drink, or you're not gonna drink?
It means if I do drink, everything's gonna be okay.
You've got a meeting tomorrow.
Yeah, in like 20 hours.
Yeah, a lot can happen in that time.
A few drinks is not gonna kill me. I- I'll be back at the hotel by mid-afternoon. I'll chug a gallon of Evian; I'll eat a pizza; hit the steam room; get a great night's sleep, and be as good as new for my meeting. Really, it's no big whoop. No one will know.
I will.
Aren't you a sweet Boy Scout?
[Jentakes off runnning] No- [After tripping over trash can that Jen knocked over and answering phone] Hey, Barney. Yeah, no, everything's good. No, yeah, she's still sleeping. Okay. Talk to you later. Bye. [Catches up to Jenin park knocking her to ground and gets on top of her] Stop!
Oh, my God!
Hey, look, I'm sorry! Are you okay?! You gave me no choice!
Get off me!
Not until you promise you're not gonna drink! Look, I'm not getting off you until you promise!
No!
This is my job!
To sit on top of me?!
To make sure you don't drink!
Oh, my God, I told you, it's no big deal!
Yes, it is! All right? Don't fuck up this gig for me! My brother's going to prison tomorrow! I need the money for his commissary account!
Are you trying to play on my emotions?!
Is it working?!
No, because I don't have any!
All right, well, then, suck it up until Barney gets back at 5:00, all right?! He can deal with you!
What am I supposed to do if I'm not drinking?! Just sit in the hotel room all day, watching SpectraVision?!
Uh, we could hang out here in the park! It's a beautiful day out!
You are such a sap!
Look, just relax, all right?! Enjoy, and take it one moment at a time, all right?!
Oh, jeez, AA crap! All right, fine. We'll just hang out in this stupid park!
All right! Okay! Now I'm gonna get off you, but I swear, if you run, I will tackle the fuck out of you!
You are so dramatic!
Hey, look who's talking, commercial actress chick!
I'll have you know, I have done 17 films and 4 TV shows!
Whatever.
[Jen feigns running away with Lip jumping with a start] Hey! I'm just kidding, you little shit!
