Vick Lennon, Doug Billings, Alan Mervish, Stu PryceWe don't make each other happy anymore, Beck.

Let's be excited and fun and alive again...
I'm sorry, honey, but I think you need to seriously consider that Doug might not be coming... Some men just aren't cut out for this kind of commitment. I'm so sorry that this is how you had to find out--
It's a long story. All I can say is I'm so sorry. And I promise, for as long as we're married, I will never ever put you through something like this again. Can... Can you forgive me?
Your friend Alan just paid your marker. Took out a second mortgage on his house. The full 200 grand, plus medical expenses, which I thought was a classy touch.
Relax, it's Doug, he's probably crashed out on someone's couch right now. All we have to do is retrace our steps from last night, and we'll find him.
Alan! Alan Steven Mervish, get back here this second! Don't you walk away from me, you stupid little clown! I own you! GET BACK HERE IMMEDIATELY!
Shut up, Vick! Alan, where the hell have you been?! I've been calling and calling! What, you don't answer your phone anymore?!
Look, Doug, I think I speak for everyone in the car when I say I'm really sorry about locking you on the roof of the hotel.
