Scene 1:
Place: Oakdale, Illinois Location:
Back Road Scene: Car

SIMON FRASIER AND KATIE FRASIER

>>Simon: Are you sure this is the right road?
>> Katie: Yeah.
>> Simon: There was a car behind us after the funeral, and then it didn't turn off when we did.
>> Katie: Do you know what i heard people saying on their way out of the chapel? "Nice service." As if there could be anything nice about a funeral.
>>Simon: Don't worry. It's just something that people say, that's all.
>> Katie: I just can't believe he's gone. One minute, Bryant's here, and the next minute, he's just -- I didn't see him enough. Now it's too late. You better keep living, Simon, for at least the next hundred years.
>> Simon: Where are we?
>> Katie: Are you mad at me?
>> Simon: No. No, I'm not. I'm mad at myself. I should've stuck to the main road. The reception at Lucinda's is gonna be over before we even get there.
>> Katie: Is this because I won't make love with you until our anniversary?
>> Simon: What? Did I say that? Did I mention anything about lovemaking? Or lack of it?
>> Katie: I knew it.

Scene 2:
Location: Back Road
Scene: Car

KATIE FRASIER AND SIMON FRASIER

>> Katie: I thought I explained it pretty well. The night we made love last year was a karmic night for us. We need to honor that. I mean, it will be like our own private ritual. We wait till one year from the first time that we made love, and it will ensure our happiness.
>> Simon: Look, Katie, I've got to be honest. I don't really care what some druid sorcerer says. If you want to do it, we just do it.
>> Katie: Okay, come on. If you just wait, we can do it once a day or once an hour if you want, just please be patient.
>>Simon: I have been nothing but patient with you, especially when you ran off with Bruno. After all, apparently, you are my wife.
>> Katie: Oh, that's very interesting, honey. Now that you finally want sex all of a sudden, I'm your wife, but when I wanted it and you wouldn't deliver, wasn't I your wife then, too?

Scene 3:
Location: Back Road
Scene: Car

SIMON FRASIER AND KATIE FRASIER

>> Simon: Where is the main highway?
>> Katie: Why don't we just turn around and go home? You probably don't belong at the reception anyway.
>> Simon: Oh, and why not?
>> Katie: Dynamic transference, that's what.
>>Simon: And what's that?
>> Katie: You gave me your bad mood, and now, you're gonna give it to everyone else.
>> Simon: Look, I am not in a bad mood. [Katie chants] What are you doing?
>>Katie: Shh. [Katie chants] I learned it at the ashram. It's a way of letting go.
>> Simon: Right. Letting go of what?
>> Katie: My bad mood, which you gave me.
>> Simon: But I told you, I am not in a bad mood. [Katie chants]

Scene 4:
Location: Back Road
Scene: Car

KATIE FRASIER AND SIMON FRASIER

>> Katie: Do you think people have arguments when they're scared?
>> Simon: People? What people? Whose people?
>>Katie: Us?
>> Simon: Yes. I mean, we have arguments when we're scared, when we're not scared, when we're standing up, when we're sitting down --
>> Katie: I'm serious, Simon.
>> Simon: So what are you scared about? Tell me.
>> Katie: You tell me first.
>> Simon: I was just thinking, sitting there the whole way through Bryant's funeral how easily life can be taken away from us. I just don't want to waste any of it.
>> Katie: That's exactly what i was thinking.
>> Simon: Our anniversary is fine, or whenever. Whenever you're ready. [Katie sighs]
>> Katie: There's the highway.
>> Simon: It's about time.
>> Katie: See how the universe works? We found each other, and then we found our way.
>>Simon: Whatever you say.

KATIE FRASIER AND SIMON FRASIER

>> Katie: You ready to go?
>> Simon: Why? We just got here.
>> Katie: I'll get in touch with you soon.
>> Simon: Hey, what's the matter? What's the rush?
>> Katie: I think that if i don't make love to you in the next couple of minutes, I will burst into flames.
>> Simon: What about our whole anniversary thing, the karmic night?
>> Katie: You have made it very clear to everyone here tonight that you're proud and happy to be married to me, and that's all the karma I need. Let's do it. Aretha?

KATIE FRASIER, SIMON FRASIER, ARETHA, AND RAINBOW

>> Aretha: You remember? Far out.
>> Katie: What's this?
>> Aretha: The work roster. You were down for feeding the animals and, like, never showed. Very uncool, Starshine.
>> Simon: Uh, who?
>> Katie: Starshine. Remember, I went to the commune?
>> Simon: Wait, wait, I thought that was an ashram?
>> Katie: Yeah. That was brief, and then, I met a girl named Shatki there, and she thought I'd be happier at the commune.
>> Simon: Okay. Wait, wait, wait. What was it, moonshine?
>> Both: Starshine.
>> Aretha: At the organic plant at cooperative, we choose our own names. This is rainbow.
>> Simon: Oh, rainbow. Very -- colorful.
>> Rainbow: Why did you split? One of us is all of us. You know that.
>> Aretha: You took an oath to be a part of the earth family for a lunar year. You wouldn't let us down, now would you, Starshine?
