This dream plays out like a movie and I never appear, but feel as though the characters do something similar to what I'd like them to do: Mila Kunis is on a busy street in Chinatown. She's standing in a very crowded Asian shop looking for something, but she doesn't seem to know what it is. A woman's voice floats on the air, sounding like it's being filtered through a speaker, but feels like it's in the back of my mind. The voice is telling a dirty joke. Mila walks toward the voice: exiting the shop, crossing the street and entering an Indian store. The woman is Eva Amurri and she looks kinda slutty compared to Mila's pseudo-preppy clothing. She's smoking a cigarette and wearing a leather jacket, mini skirt and boots. The duo proceeds outside and sit on a wooden bench in front of the Indian store. The conversation revolves around the need to find each other. Eva suggests they do LSD. Mila agrees. Scene.
In the next scene, Mila and Eva have transformed into Eric Idle and Robert De Niro, but not the current incarnations of them. Eric is his long-haired Monty Python self. De Niro is his Midnight Run self. They're sitting on a wooden bench in front of a barn overstuffed with hay. Both of them have blankets featuring Navajo patterns and colors wrapped around them. I instantly know they've been on a bender that's lasted for days. Eric starts to tell De Niro about a turtle he used to have while De Niro is fixing a pipe full of LSD to smoke. Eric talks lovingly about the turtle and bursts into tears. De Niro is surprised, then angry. The manic tears fade into maniac giggles and before long, De Niro's giggling, too. Scene.
A rich woman's husband (who I know is having an affair to get even with his wife cheating on him) is wearing 1980's style sunglasses and sweater while sitting in his 1980's red convertible. He's leaving the house as his 13-year old daughter is having a lavish sleepover. He screeches away in his car. Moments later, Eric drives a stolen golf cart down his very long driveway. De Niro is standing on the back, trying to hang on while holding a gun in his hand. They need to rob someone to get more money for drugs. They're both insanely happy. Scene.
The dream replays again, for no good reason, with only a few additions. One: When Mila Kunis walks into the Indian store, she decides to pull a gun, wrap her arm around Eva Amurri's neck and aim at the store owner. She and her captive back out of the store slowly and sit on the bench. The store owner runs out the front of the store past them with his hands up, screaming about the crazy bitch with the gun. Two: A groundskeeper at the rich couple's house sees Eric and De Niro steal the golf cart. He knows they are going to try and rob the house. He calls the lady of the house. She's sitting at a desk in an office staring at security monitors that are embedded into the desk. She tells the groundskeeper that she sees them, and they will pay.
