Dreams and Tensions at a Family Gathering
David Fox
Boy, you were really dreaming over there earlier. You were mumbling, jerking around.
Amy Fox
I dreamt you were trying to kill me. We were at my parents anniversary party and my mother wouldn't stop talking. You started screaming you couldn't take it anymore, and then you tried to strangle me.
David Fox
Hey, at least you were dreaming about me, right? That's kind of an improvement.

Neighborly Disturbance in Hotel Room 3
Mason
Everything alright, Mr. Fox?
David Fox
Uh, no, because the asshole in the room right beside us keeps banging on the walls and won't stop. You got any ideas?
Mason
The room beside you?
David Fox
Yeah, room 3. Uh, I go over there to talk with the guy to try to get him to stop, but he just kind of keeps doing it. So, uh, I gotta say I don't know what his problem is.
Mason
It's very strange, seeing as you folks are the only guests I've got in here tonight.
David Fox
Well, somebody's in there, okay, and I gotta say I'm pretty exhausted.
Mason
You sure it's room 3?
David Fox
Yeah. We're in the corner, right? Number 4? Well, it's the room right besides us with the big rusty 3 on it!

Reflections on Missed Opportunities and Nature
David Fox
Never see stars anymore. At least not in L.A. It's kind of nice out here, really. I bet Charlie would've liked it.
Amy Fox
Well you should've brought us sometime. We never went anywhere; the job was always too important to leave.
David Fox
Why do you do that?
Amy Fox
Do what?
David Fox
Every time I mention his name you take a shot at me.
Amy Fox
Well stop mentioning his name!

911 Emergency?
David Fox
Yeah, hello. We need some help. Some people are trying to kill us.
Mason
Where are you located, sir?
David Fox
Me and my wife, we're at this motel, the Pinewood Motel. It's near the mountains. They've got us trapped.
Mason
Who has you trapped, sir?
David Fox
I don't know. We just need help. The Pinewood Motel.
Mason
Yes, sir. Do you have an address?
David Fox
No! It's near some woods. Jesus Christ, look it up!
Mason
You're going to need to settle down, sir. You'll never survive if you lose control, Mr. Fox.
Mason
You shouldn't be wandering around in the dark by yourself.

Sticky Door Handle Instructions

Reflections on Relationships and Family Expectations
David Fox
I guess it could be worse, you know. We could be stuck in that twin bed at your folk's house, trying to pretend like we're a happy couple.
Amy Fox
God, I should've told my mom about us.
David Fox
Why ruin their party though? I think the thing to do is just tell them after we've signed the papers. It felt really strange to be at that party, watching them all, celebrate being together all those years. How'd it make you feel?
Amy Fox
I don't know. Tired.
David Fox
I'm sorry. Never should've gotten off the interstate, either.
Amy Fox
Miss our last one great adventure together?

Amy Fox
I didn't get us lost.
David Fox
No, you slept for three hundred miles, thanks to your Zoloft-Prozac cocktail.
