Tony takes a shower.

Tony brushes his teeth.

He thinks "I'm healthy."

He walks to the kitchen.

His girlfriend's cat is on top of the refrigerator.

Tony walks into his bedroom.

He closes the door.

The cat jumps on Tony's bed.

The cat is just there.

Tony leaves the bedroom.

He closes the door behind him.

He thinks "Lazy ass cat."

He walks to the kitchen.

He washes dishes. 

He thinks "I'm always happy when I get drunk and don't fuck things up too bad. I always think, 'That was dumb. I'm fine.'"

He picks up a DVD.

The DVD is Old Boy.
