has nothing to do with me, okay?

Are you okay?

Yeah. Fine. I'm fine.

Zeigler?

Zeigler?

Excuse me.

Zeigler!

Zeig?

Zeigler?

My boy hooked me up, okay?

I mean, I'm talking, now, free passwords

to, like, over 100 sites.

So we're talking... Thank you...

horny coeds,

Japanese girls in bondage and...

what... granny trannys...

Okay, you did not just say that.

I never looked at 'em. Okay?

I'm just saying, I have the passwords...

– He totally looked. – You know he did.

I call it having access to information.

It's called having a girlfriend, Stone.

You should check it out.

– Damn! – Wow, that's harsh.

Sorry. Shrink in training...

I gotta tell it like it is.

Ha!

Tim!

I'm right here.

What?

Mm! Check this out.

– Oh, he's cute. – Oh, yeah.

Scroll down...

Gay!

Absolutely.

What?!

It's a boy-toy, who saw your name is lzzie

and thought you was a guy.

You need to stop hatin'.

– Oh, I'm hatin'? – Yeah.

Tim?!

What?! It's not me!

I swear!

Okay, who we shutting down?

No one.

No, I just...

thought Josh might call.

He's been avoiding me for over a week.

Our relationship has been reduced

to text-messaging.

How tragic is that?

Okay, Mattie, come on.

I know... I know.

I guess I'm still hoping he'll just...

figure it out.

You need to let go, okay?

You guys have been breaking up way longer than you hooked up.

If he can't recognize that you got it going on,

then... you don't need to be involved with him.

Besides, look, it's raining men right now.

Right, guys?

Yo. Ready to dance?

We could do that.

That's what I'm talking about.

– Come on. – No.

– Come on! – Come on.

Have you seen me dance? It's not pretty.

Good night.

Hey!

Don't... do that.

Oh. Sorry.

I wanted out of there.

Thought I'd walk with you.

You live the other way.

I'll take the spiral route.

Plus, you know, single guy, walking alone, late at night...

Well, thanks. I'm good from here.

See you tomorrow?

Sure.

Okay. Bye.

You have two new messages.

First message, 9:37 p.m.

Mattie, it's Mom.

This is call number three, honey.

I know you're busy, but call me back, okay?

I miss you.

Next message, 10:47 p.m.

Mattie, it's Josh. Um...

Never mind.

This is Josh.

I'm not here right now. Leave a message.

Josh, it's Mattie.

Pick up.

You haven't returned one of my calls,

and now...

what's with the weird message?

Hey, lz, are you here?

Ugh...

You know you have to get up.

You have class.

d Tell me... d

d Where I stand d

Get up! Now!

d Tell me d

d You better, ooh d

d To light the way... d

Of course there are

other kinds of stalking.

There is public stalking. There is cyber stalking.

Each with its own set of behaviors.

What I want to talk about now...

is stalking, the pathological mind...

...and the other.

Now, the pathological mind...

The pathological mind can only satisfy its need for the other

by consuming the other;

leading, once again, to great need,

and, of course, the cycle begins again.

Now, what I'd like you to do

Friday, in preparation for the midterm,

is write an essay on what we've spoken about today,

including in it ritual...

Come on, Mattie, you know you're gonna have fun.

Chill out, relax. Have a drink.

– Yeah, but... – You're gonna come.

We're gonna hang out. We need this, okay?

I'm gonna call you right back.

Damn. Y'all look good.

A'ight. Check this out.

I got all the new joint...

Actually, these last four, y'all have already.

And then, these five, right here,

won't even be out for another month.

Plus, I have some other ones here...

Yeah. You know, you should just save us a few little

tax dollars and drive yourself to jail right now.

Can I use your car? And don't forget,

I gotta take you with me

because you did buy some of the stuff.

Oh, and your boy Josh... genius!

For every minute I use on my cell phone,

I get credited for two.

It's a beautiful thing.

Excuse me for one second. What's up?

All right, we're going to lunch, right?

Uh, actually, I'm gonna hang here for a bit.

But I'll call you.

Okay. Um...

I'm gonna see you later then?

Maybe.

Josh?

Josh, it's Mattie.

Josh?

Oh, shit!

Josh.

Hey.

Why don't you answer my calls?

Everyone is worried about you.

Stay here. All right?

Oh, my... Josh!

Josh?

Oh, my God.

Hello, this is Louise Webber.

Leave your name and message and I'll get back to you.

Hey, Mom. Tag, you're it.

Hey, call me as soon as you get this, okay?

Something happened.

I'll just tell you about it when you call, okay?

I love you.

– Josh. – Mattie...

Are you there?

I'm not me anymore.

Something's wrong with me.

I know it's very difficult

for us to talk about loss.

So many conflicting emotions involved.

This might sound pat to you,

but it is okay to cry, Mattie.

I have.

You have?

What, five minutes, is that all I get, Mattie?

I'm wasting your time.

You're not wasting my time.

You're wasting mine.

You're angry.

That's normal.

Actually, I'm just late for class.

You loved him, didn't you?

And you think it's something that you did

that might've caused this.
