505
00:23:17,479 --> 00:23:18,605
Yo, Mavis, you okay?
506
00:23:18,688 --> 00:23:23,652
I just quit working for Natasha,
which is good, right? It's brave.
507
00:23:23,735 --> 00:23:25,529
This was a one-time thing with Nicole,
508
00:23:25,612 --> 00:23:28,740
and, um, Natasha offered me
$10,000 a month.
509
00:23:28,824 --> 00:23:29,824
What?
510
00:23:29,866 --> 00:23:31,993
I didn't just fuck up
my whole life, right?
511
00:23:32,077 --> 00:23:34,121
I mean, there'll be other jobs, right?
512
00:23:34,204 --> 00:23:37,582
- Oh. But it's good, right?
- Mavis, you breathing a little funny.
513
00:23:37,666 --> 00:23:38,500
I, uh...
514
00:23:38,583 --> 00:23:41,670
I can hear my heartbeat in my ears.
It's so loud. Do you hear what I...
515
00:23:41,753 --> 00:23:44,506
- Find a seat somewhere. Sit down.
- Oh, my heartbeat's so...
516
00:23:44,589 --> 00:23:47,384
- Take deep breaths. You're just exhausted.
- My fee...
517
00:23:47,467 --> 00:23:49,970
- You did not fuck up your life.
- I just...
518
00:23:50,053 --> 00:23:51,972
- I don't know what I'm...
- Mavis! [echoes]
519
00:23:52,055 --> 00:23:54,015
- I don't... [echoes]
- [thuds]
520
00:23:56,685 --> 00:23:58,895
Don't worry, ma'am. You're gonna be okay.
521
00:23:59,479 --> 00:24:02,149
These prostitutes should really eat
before they start work.
522
00:24:02,232 --> 00:24:04,818
Oh, I'm sorry. Did you see my pum-pum?
523
00:24:05,402 --> 00:24:06,486
I...
524
00:24:06,570 --> 00:24:09,531
I'm... I'm sorry. Also... Also you're welcome.
