      [last lines]

      The Cook: [telling a story to Ross, whose asleep in the passenger seat] I remember the time, I tell ya, I was about... I was little... I don't know, four, five years old, something like that. We had this old dog... and it had a litter of puppies... and I walked in the bathroom one day and my mother was standing there... kneeling down. Dog had a litter of about eight and my mother was bending over and she was killing each one of these little puppies in the bathtub... and I remember I said, "Why?"... She said, "I'm just killing what I can't take care of"... Then my momma said to me... she looked at me and she said... "I wish I could do that to you"... Maybe she... maybe she shoulda.

    • Alternate versions
      The R-rated and Unrated versions are the same length. This is achieved by blurring explicit images, covering them with a black bar, or using different angles, and by beeping some of the fouler language.

    Wow. Gross. Funny. Sad. Great.
    After 16 years it's amazing and depressing how relatable it still is! Cameo's were such a surprise: Debbie Harry, Alexis Arquette, Eric Roberts - everyone did great. Casting was superior!

    The show is also extremely gross! Mena in the bathroom was funny & true, but...yeah, I'll save that for you to see for yourself. If you are someone who can't or shouldn't watch graphic scenes of using - this is a big no go for you. Nothing if left to the imagination.

    Huge fan of Mr. Rourke- thrilled for his getting back into acting.

    Above all lease it made me realize that I miss seeing Ms. Murphy on screen. Amazing actress who left entirely too soon.
