Parenthood (2010–2015): Season 3, Episode 4 - Clear Skies from Here on Out - full transcript

So, um, this girl Amy,

you kinda like her?

Yeah, I guess so.

We should go into business
together, you and me.

And I don't want
to do it without you.

Haddie, you live in
a completely different world

than I do.

- You get that?
- Yeah.

- It's my dad. Hide, hide, hide!
- What do I do, what do I do?

Oh, there's something you
don't see every day.

Max's dad and I took a huge,
huge leap of faith



by sending him to this school
and mainstreaming him.

Right.

I'm worried about him
socially, and I--and I--

You're just gonna have to get
a little more comfortable

with having less control.

I packed you a lunch.

Now, I don't want you trading it
for a hot lunch, okay?

There's poison in there.

You'll wind up with
type 7 diabetes.

Okay.

Hey, look.
It's Max. Max.

- Hey, Max.
- Let's go, Jabbar.

- Yeah, let's go. Come on.
- Have a good day, guys.

- Bye, Max.
- Bye, Max.



- See you later.
- Look at that.

This is good.

Things are working out
just fine.

You're worried
about a storm?

Nope. Looks like clear skies
from here on out.

- Morning.
- Good.

You know, it's a good day
to be on the water.

What?

You know, I've got a lot
of life left in me.

And with Virilia's help,
by golly, I'm gonna live it.

- What is going on?
- I got an audition.

- Really?
- Yeah.

For wha--how?

Well, it turns out
that, you know,

the gal that cast your play at
the Berkeley Theatre Company--

Yeah.

Well, she also casts
local commercials.

She called me
and I got an audition.

- Dad, you have a real audition?
- Yes, I do.

- Wow!
- Uh-huh.

Very nice.
What's it for?

It's a commercial.

No, I know,
but what's it for?

Um, it's, um, erectile
dysfunction medicine.

Okay.

Hey, you know what? I'm in
the middle of rehearsing now.

Wow. Yeah, um, you guys
keep working.

I think you're really
on to something here.

Well, you kind of
interrupted.

- Sorry.
- Okay.

- Good luck, Dad.
- Thanks.

Can we just run it again?

So I had all four wisdom teeth
pulled in the same day.

Now I'm scared.
Do I look okay?

Honey, you look cute. Why?
Are you seeing Amy?

It's--

Is that why you're worried
about your face?

You look really good.

I'm not talking about this
right here.

What? You don't want to chat
with me right now?

I love you.
Have a good day.

Hey, you, uh, you can't
make a u-turn here.

- Hi.
- How are you?

Good.

I was in the neighborhood and I
just thought I'd drop by.

Well, I'm glad you did.

How'd your writing go
last night?

Did you get through
the third act?

I didn't, but I did fix
the one problem--

You look really pretty.

I was listening, but I also
wanted to tell you that,

and you smell really good.

I don't believe
you can smell me from there.

I'm pretty sure it's you.

There are a lot of smells
going around,

but I'm pretty sure it's you.

What, um, what are you doing
tomorrow?

- Yes.
- Yes? Oh, good.

- Should I pick you up around 7--?
- Sure.

Okay.
Okay.

What--what--
what's the big deal?

It's one dinner, all right?

It's not even
a special occasion.

Okay, not saying
it's a big deal.

You're talking like this,
making it into one.

I just feel like
you're avoiding my family.

I'm not avoiding
your family.

I just--I sometimes feel
isolated at those dinners, okay?

Everybody's looking at me
different now.

- It's just--it's--it's weird.
- No way.

Alex, no one is looking at you
differently.

Nobody cares. Nobody's thinking
about your record.

I'm thinking about my record.
That's the thing.

It's in my head.
It bothers me.

I'm uncomfortable.
Don't you get that?

- It's just awful for me.
- Okay?

Can you just tell
your grandparents

I said thank you
for the invitation

and I'll see 'em around?

- Okay.
- All right.

I'll call you later.

- Hey.
- Oh, hey, Mrs. Braverman.

Where are you going?
You're not coming to dinner?

I can't. I got some things
I need to do.

Oh. Okay.

- All right.
- See ya.

- Bye.
- Bye.

Hey, Haddie.

Um... 11 times 8.

88. Ask me another one.

- 9 times 9.
- 81.

You can go all the way
up to the 12s.

I'm the best in my class.

- 12 times 11.
- 132.

- Can we take a break now?
- Why? It's so much fun.

Hi, Jabbar, you want to eat
lunch with me and Nicky?

Yeah, sure, totally.

No. We're already
eating lunch.

You guys can move
and come over to our table.

Then we could eat lunch
together.

- Let's go.
- No. No.

We're cousins
and best friends.

We eat here together
every day.

And we're already
doing something.

So keep quizzing me.

- Sorry, Jensen.
- Okay, keep going.

Hey, Patrick, you want to eat
lunch with me and Nicky?

- Jabbar, keep quizzing me.
- Why? No.

So I have a weird,
weird question.

- Okay.
- Um...

Hey, what--what are you--

what are you doing
tomorrow night?

- Why?
- Um...

'Cause that was kind of
a trick question.

Well, could you give me
a ride somewhere?

Okay, somewhere. Hmm.

Where, uh, where do you
need a ride?

To the movies or something.

- To the movies?
- Yeah.

Okay. Still,
I'm feeling suspicious.

- Why can't you just take the bus?
- All right.

Um, I may have asked someone
to go to the movies with me,

and, you know,
I can't take a bus.

Ha ha ha, okay.
It's all coming together.

- Mm-hmm.
- How exciting!

Yeah, yeah.

Hmm, should I wear
a little hat?

- A little chauffeur jacket?
- No, no.

- Okay.
- No.

Okay. Well, I must say
I'm intrigued.

- So I will accept.
- Yeah?

Absolutely.

But I'm gonna have to ask you
a few questions first.

For example, who is this
mysterious someone?

- It was Amy.
- Amy, okay.

Now, where did you meet
this, uh, Amy?

- At a very charming yard sale.
- Okay. You know what?

Let's just get you
groomed up,

get rid of these flyaways
for you.

It looks good.
You look great.

- She's gonna love you.
- Thanks.

Mom, could I ask you
a question?

Sure. What's up?

Could I eat lunch
with Jensen tomorrow?

Of course you could eat lunch
with Jensen tomorrow.

Why do you ask?

Because--because Max
said no.

- Max said no?
- Yeah.

Well, why would Max
say no?

I don't know.

I really want to eat lunch
with Jensen.

He's my friend.

Well, you could eat lunch
with Jensen.

Just tell Max
that you want to have lunch

with your other friends,
and he'll understand, honey,

if that's
what you want to do.

I told him that,
but he said no.

Baby, you don't have to do
anything you don't want to do.

- Okay?
- All right.

Now finish up
with that game.

Okay.

Yeah.

- Door's open.
- Hello.

- Come on in.
- Hi.

I made your favorite.
Risotto.

- Daddy.
- There he is.

- Don't tell me you can't stay.
- No, I can't.

I'm teaching class tonight.
Oh, I'm disappointed.

Well, I made mac and cheese
for Jabbar.

Thank you. Hey, um, can we
talk later on tonight, please?

Ooh. "Can we talk?"
That's not good.

No, no, no, it's just--
it's not dire.

I just--I'll call you
after I get home.

Okay?
Okay. I'll answer.

- All right, good.
- Bye!

Bye, mom.

Excuse me.

Everybody, I have an
announcement I'd like to make.

An announcement.

Well, thanks to your sister
Sarah's wonderful play

and her wisdom
in casting me,

I have booked a commercial.

Do you have
actual speaking lines?

Yes, I do.

So what are you,
the star of the commercial?

As a matter of fact, I am
the star of the commercial.

- First audition.
- Okay, I'm very sorry.

Is this a campaign
for adult diapers?

- No, it's not.
- Metamucil.

- No.
- Prune juice.

It is, uh...

For an erectile dysfunction
medication.

Oh, wow!

Congratulations, pop.

Grandpa, what's
"ereptile" dysfunction?

Uh, I'll explain it later
to you.

What is "ereptile"
dysfunction, Dad?

Wait a minute, Dad.

Are you gonna be the guy
walking on the beach

while they list
all the side effects?

"If you experience
uncontrollable diarrhea,

"memory loss,
or sudden dizziness,

please call your doctor."

Side effects include
erectile dysfunction.

Max, get up.
Put the video game away.

We've got to go, okay?
All right.

Hey, listen, Drew, sorry
we gave you a hard time

but have a fun time
on your date, okay?

I love you, Mom.

Wait, Max told him
he had to do what?

He said that Max said

they always had to eat lunch
together,

and, I mean, Crosby,
we can't let this continue.

- It's not fair to Jabbar.
- Yeah, I know.

But, you know,
it's a tricky situation.

Yeah, I know.
I know it is.

But Jabbar was upset.

Well, maybe we just wait
and see how it all works out.

- Crosby, no.
- Okay, see you, guys.

I think you need to talk to
your brother about it

as soon as you can.

- Hello? Crosby?
- Okay, I-I will.

Hey, listen, 10 a.m.
luncheonette. Don't forget.

- Right. I'll be there.
- Okay.

So I'll be by tomorrow
to pick up Jabbar around 5:00.

- Okay?
- Okay.

All right, bye.

Hey Max!

Breakfast.

Hey, honey, it turns out
that The Luncheonette

is more of a landmark
than I thought it was,

'cause The Weekly is probably
gonna run a story

on Crosby and me fixing up
the recording studio.

- Wow, that's great.
- I mean, 'cause we just--

we need some local press,
you know?

Yep.

I mean, you don't seem
that excited about it.

I'm excited.

'Cause I'm--I'm excited
about it, you know?

- Yeah.
- It's a good thing.

- I'm excited.
- All right, Max.

I got your raisins.
We got your sandwich.

Carrots,
that's what you need.

How's school, bud?

- Great.
- Great?

- Great, excellent, awesome.
- Really?

Why is it awesome?

Well, I have a corner locker
to store all my books.

Uh-huh.

I'm the fastest at times
tables in my whole class.

And every day I eat lunch
together with Jabbar.

We're best friends.
It's awesome.

Well, that is great.

You know, this problem was
supposed to be solved today.

I think I just found
a Commander Cody--

- Braverman.
- Master in here.

Okay, all right, ten minutes.
We'll give it a shot.

Thank you.

So, uh, I guess
Max and Jabbar

have been eating lunch
together, like,

pretty much every day.

Did you know that?

Yeah, I did know
about that.

As a matter of fact,

I've been meaning to
talk to you about this.

Oh, uh, good.

And, you know, just
before I get to the point,

I want you to know what a
nerve-racking decision it was

for Kristina and I
to mainstream Max again

and, you know, Jabbar
has been a godsend

because the fact that
those two kids have bonded,

the two cousins have bonded
like that,

eating lunch together
every day,

giving Max such a sense
of security

during this unstructured,
precarious time for him,

has been, like I said,
it's just been a godsend.

And, you know,
forget about all that.

Max calls Jabbar
his best friend.

- Really?
- Yeah.

- Best friend?
- Yeah. How about that?

Your boy and my boy.
So, thank you.

And Max is such a good kid,
so--

Yeah, yeah, I know.
He's a great kid.

It's nice that Jabbar
has him as well.

I'm sorry.
Wait a minute.

Is there something
you wanted to talk about?

Uh, yes, um,

has the bank
called about the loan?

- No, not yet.
- They didn't? Okay.

Should we check in
with them or--?

No, no, no.
All we can do is wait.

Okay. I'm gonna be
treasure diving.

- Hey, honey.
- Hi.

- How's it going?
- I'm just studying.

I just brought you
some clean undies and bras.

These are cute.
They're so tiny.

So, how's everything going?

Better now.

How's Alex?
Are you guys doing okay?

- It's fine.
- Okay.

I just wondered because he just
hasn't been here in a while,

and normally he comes over
for dinner

and you guys are always sort of
like two peas in a pod and--

Okay.

I just--I heard you guys
fighting

or started fighting

and I wanted to make sure
that you were okay.

That's it.
Okay.

- That wasn't a fight.
- Okay, well, you guys were--

We were having
a conversation.

- A disagreement?
- Sure, okay.

Don't get defensive.
I was just asking.

I'm not getting defensive,
but you come into my room

and then you start talking
to me about things

that you don't know
what you're talking about.

Haddie, I just wanted to make
sure that you were okay.

I'm sorry. I'm just worried
about you.

I'm just--sometimes, you know,
in relationships,

people need their space and
their time away from each other

and then they realize that,
when they get back together,

this happens...

Mom, I'm sorry,
I'm sorry.

I need to not
have this conversation.

I'm in the middle
of doing homework.

- Okay, I get it.
- Sorry.

- You're right.
- Great.

So, hey, uh, Drew,
who is this again?

Uh, I-I don't remember.

They kind of remind me
of television.

Wow, you know television?

Yeah,
I love Tom Verlaine.

- Do you like them?
- Yeah, I do.

Yeah, Tom Verlaine's great.
It's cool you know that.

Yeah.

Most kids your age
don't know television.

Have you heard
any of his solo stuff?

No, I haven't. I didn't know
there was solo stuff.

Did you know David Bowie
actually did a cover

of Tom Verlaine's song
Kingdom Come?

- No, I've never heard that.
- Yeah, it was pretty awesome.

- That's so cool.
- Pretty awesome.

- Have you heard it, Drew?
- Uh, no, I haven't.

- Kingdom Come?
- No.

Wow, that's so cool.

What else do you have
on your playlist?

- Oh, I've got a lot of stuff.
- Yeah?

- Can I check it out?
- Oh, yes.

- You like The Cramps?
- Yeah.

I love The Cramps.
And The Germs.

Seriously, you're like
my music soul mate.

I'm in love
with your playlist.

Great choice.

You guys went on a date.
I can't believe what happened.

I can't believe you're
actually mad at me about this.

I mean, are you crazy?

Well, okay,
first you bring up

that I like
The Millionaire Matchmaker.

That's embarrassing.
That's what this is about?

Who cares?
It's a good show.

She thought it was funny.

Look, she was sitting back
there.

She wasn't saying anything.
You weren't saying anything.

You invited her
to the front seat.

I didn't invite her.
She just came up on her own.

Either way, you were
insinuating

she should come up here.

Oh, my God.
I drove you to your date.

How about
a little gratitude?

Wait, I'm supposed to--

if I could drive,
I would have.

- I'm sorry that--
- You're welcome for the ride.

Hey, you guys,
you're very loud.

You're gonna wake up
grandma and grandpa.

What's going on?

She wouldn't quit talking
the entire date.

- It was all about her.
- Excuse me.

I'm sorry, you know,

that you were sitting there,
being Rain Man.

I'm sorry.
- I wasn't saying anything--

Don't say "Rain Man."
That's not nice.

- Good night, Patti Stanger.
- Well, have a nice evening.

You're welcome for the ride.
For God's sakes.

- Tell me what happened.
- It was terrible.

- No.
- Terrible, terrible, terrible.

No. I wanted him
to have a good time.

He literally didn't say
one word to her.

He's so shy.

He's gotta take a class or get
some help or something.

- Is he gonna be okay?
- I'm not sure.

- Thanks for driving.
- Yeah.

Thanks for the thank you.

Bye.

Mom, that's hilarious.

It sounds like you're
speaking Chinese.

Oh, that's good.
It's Mandarin.

Oh.

Wait, mom,
I can't go to the store

without finding out why
you're speaking Mandarin.

It's just something
I've always wanted to do

for--for a long, long time.

Decades.

- Oh.
- Yeah.

- How does it sound?
- Good.

I mean, I was just joking when I
said it sounded like Chinese,

but, hey, it sounds
like Chinese.

Mom, it sounds good.
It sounds like Chinese.

What am I doing?

Like I'm ever gonna learn
to speak Mandarin.

- Mom.
- What am I doing?

I'm never gonna speak
Mandarin. Do you know why?

I don't follow anything
through.

I've been painting
for 30 years, right?

Have I ever had a show?
Not one show.

I haven't had one show.
Not even a group show.

Now why do you think that is?

- You didn't want a show?
- Oh, Sarah.

Mom, what is wrong?

I'm upset about
Dad's commercial.

- Ugh! Mom.
- What?

It's okay.
He's acting, right?

No one's gonna really
think he's got--

Oh, honey,
that's not it.

Oh, is it 'cause he has to
kiss that lady on the boat?

- Oh, please.
- It would bother me.

Yeah, it's annoying,
but it's not that.

It's not like I'm jealous
or anything.

Your Dad's fearless,
you know?

It's one of his most
wonderful qualities.

He sees something he wants,
he sets his sights on it,

he goes after it,
he achieves it.

It's the first thing
I loved about him.

I hoped some of it
would rub off on me,

but obviously that hasn't
happened,

so I'm learning Mandarin.

But I've got to go.

I promised my afternoon
to the food bank.

- What do you think?
- Cool.

Want to pretend you have
your own morning show?

- Yeah.
- Yeah?

You want to take a call?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.

All right,
what are you gonna say?

Hello, people,
what you doing?

Hey, I love your show.

First-time caller,
long-time listener.

Uh, hey, last week
on your, uh,

on your show
about presidents,

uh, why'd you leave
Richard Nixon out?

I think he was
an underrated president.

Yes, he was.

Oh, I'm glad
we agree on that.

Now, I wanted your advice
on a certain matter here

that's happening at work.

I have a co-worker who always
wants to eat lunch with me

and, uh, well,
to be honest,

I don't always want to
eat with him.

What do you reckon
I should do?

You should--
you should eat--

you should talk
to your dad.

Okay, well, my dad is
out of town on business.

Uh, what should I do now?

Talk to your mom.

Okay.

Listen, I found out
from your mom

that Max wants to eat lunch
every day with you

and you don't really want to.

Is that the case?
Yeah?

Sometimes I want to
eat lunch with Jensen.

Mm-hmm.
Well, I understand that.

But sometimes you have to
do things for family

and they're not always fun,

but you do it because
family's so important.

You know what I mean?

Mm-hmm.
Well, okay.

I understand that you don't want
to eat with Max every day.

But do you think you could do it
for just a little while longer?

Why?

Well, because, you know,
Max needs you.

But why can't he eat with
some of his other friends?

Well, because...

Max has some problems.

You know?

What kind of problems?

Well, it's difficult
for him to make friends.

You know how you can just
go up and talk to anybody

and everyone likes you?

Kind of like me, right?

Super likeable.
Popular as all get-out.

Well, you know,
it's hard for Max. So.

But doesn't he
have friends, though?

Doesn't he have friends?

Well, I think you might be
one of his only friends.

That's why you need to hang in
there for a little bit.

- Oh.
- And help him, you know?

- Okay.
- Yeah?

- You'll do that?
- Uh-huh.

- Then we'll reevaluate.
- Okay.

All right.
I'm really proud of you.

- Let's go in the loft.
- All right, let's do it.

- Yeah.
- No more radio show for you.

- No.
- All right.

I could have played that
for two hours.

Are we ready to shoot this?
Actors to places.

Anybody got a 20 on Z?

- Metallic!
- He's by crafting.

Mr. Braverman.
Oh, Mr. Braverman.

Yeah.

I guess
we're ready to shoot now.

- Now?
- Yeah.

But you said
you were lighting.

Come on, come on,
let's do this.

The lighting's perfect.

We have a small window
so we've got to get it now.

Uh, would you put that
in my trailer?

- Sure, absolutely.
- Thank you.

- Feeling virile, Zeek?
- Huh?

- Are you feeling virile?
- Virile, yeah, I'm ready.

All right, here we go.
Yeah, lose the glasses.

Lose the glasses.
Right, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Man, everybody's so excited.

Hi.
Hi, how's it going?

Hi, Torrey.
Am I okay?

All right, we're going.
Let's bring that fan out.

Go, fan.
Good luck, okay?

- Yeah, yeah.
- Places.

Roll sound.
Make some magic, Zeek.

Sound speeding.

And action!

Are you worried
about a storm?

Storm? Nope.
Looks like clear skies ahead.

You know, I've got
a lot of life to live

and with Virilia's help,
I'm gonna live it all.

And cut!

That was perfect,
that was perfect.

- Yeah?
- Let's do it again.

- All right, back to one.
- What?

We're just gonna do it
one more time.

If it was perfect, how come
we're doing it again?

Look, I know you've
got a theater background,

but I've only got
30 seconds here, man.

Not 30 minutes.
This ain't Titanic okay?

- Be happy, man.
- Okay.

You've got your girl,
you're on a boat.

- Yeah.
- Drugs are working.

- Yeah.
- You're virile.

- Yeah.
- Right now.

Right.

I need you to give my heart
an erection, all right?

Right.

- You need to sell this to me.
- Okay.

Let's do this.
This is the one.

This is the money one.
Here we go.

Come on, people.
All right, places!

And roll camera.

Would you like
a latte, Zeek?

- A latte?
- Yeah?

Sure.

So we've got,
at the revival house,

The Breakfast Club,
which we've seen before,

or there's like a weird
animation festival,

so we basically have seen it
or it's weird.

- Either one.
- That's not fair.

I just describe them to you.
You have to make the decision.

Neither one of them
sounds too interesting,

so just pick one.

What is your problem?

We could see
the Michael Cera movie.

Uh, yeah.

I mean, I guess
what I'm saying is,

maybe I don't want to
see a movie.

Okay.

Uh, we can just hang out.

Something, um...

Some--something's off.

Uh, sorry,
I don't know what that means.

Something's off
with, uh,

with me.

You have a lot going on.

Do you want to talk
about something?

Well, it's not
just with me. Just with us.

Okay. You mean with me.

No, I mean with us.

And it's really hard
to talk about,

but I haven't felt right
in a long time,

and I don't want to pretend
anymore, and that's why

I think that we shouldn't
see each other anymore.

Why?

Because I think that, um,

we're in two different places
in our life right now

and it's--it's--
it's holding us back.

It's a disconnect somewhere
and--

Alex, Alex, I'm sorry
about the party.

No, no, no, baby.
It's not about the party.

It's--it's something else.

It's like, a lot of times
when we're together,

it feels like I'm not
even there with you,

and, Haddie,
you deserve somebody

that's gonna be there
for you, all the way,

all the time,

and I don't know if I can be
that guy for you right now.

- Yeah.
- And I--

You just want to bail.

No, I just don't think--

I think it's best for us
if we're not together.

- Okay, yeah, I got it.
- Wait, where are you going?

- Can you--can you just--?
- I don't know.

Did you want to go
to the movies right now?

No, I don't want you to leave.
We're not even done talking.

Can you just wait a second?
- I don't--

I don't really have
anything to say.

Well, can I at least
take you home?

Please? I insist.

I don't want you walking around
this neighborhood by yourself.

Okay, fine.

Let's do what you want.

Haddie, wait. Um,
can you wait a second, please?

Hey, guys. Hi.

- Um, hi, Mrs. Braverman.
- Where'd Haddie go?

I thought you guys
were gonna see a movie.

Where--

I-I just wanted to say,
um, I'm sorry

for--for bringing you guys
into my mess.

Just, um, I really--
I really regret that--

Oh, my gosh, honey.
Don't--

Mrs. Braverman, I do.

Even worry about it.

I know when me and Haddie

first started dating

that I wasn't exactly
what you guys expected.

I know.
Oh, no.

I mean, we've, uh,
gotten past all that stuff.

We're--

You know, you're like
our family, so--

I know you probably
already know this,

but you're a really good mom.

I lost mine
a long time ago,

and I just--I feel really lucky
to have gotten to know you,

Mrs. Braverman.

You know...

You're a good kid.

You've been through a lot.

And we love you,
so it's okay.

Um, I love you guys too.

Listen, um, can you just
tell your husband

I said thank you
for everything?

All right, I gotta go.

And, uh,
tell Max I said, uh,

to keep working
on his jump shot, okay?

to do.

Okay, um, I made dinner
if you're hungry.

I'm okay, I'm okay.

It was the damnest thing
you ever saw, Millie.

I mean, they had the tablecloths
and silverware.

My God, they had lobster,
for Pete's sake.

Jeez.

Did you have a chair
with your name on it?

No, the chair didn't
have a name on it,

but I had a trailer, though.

You had your own trailer?

Oh, well, it wasn't
my own trailer.

That director kid
had the big trailer.

Oh, but you got along
with him okay?

Well, yeah, I mean,
you know, we had to--

I tell you, Millie,
the kid is like--

he looked like an alien.

I mean, the kid has got,
like, a mohawk

with different colors on it
and earrings, you know.

- Wow. So he was young, huh?
- Yeah, he was real young.

I mean, he was like
a teenaged kid, you know?

But he was--he was a pro.
He was a class act.

I mean, we got along.
Yeah.

God, it was just
so much fun.

Millie, it was--it was
such a great day, you know?

Let me ask you.

Do you think
it would be crazy

if I tried to pursue something
like this at my age?

I mean, you know,
went after it?

Go ahead, just tell me.
Tell me what you think.

You mean, like,
just keep doing it?

- Yeah.
- Sure, of course, you know?

If it's something
that you love,

don't second-guess yourself.

I'm cold.
You cold?

I'm just gonna go
throw on a sweater.

So what you do is,
you unlock the trap door

so that you can go down and get
the little circle things,

and that's how you get to
level 11.

You can come over
to my house later

and you can watch me play it.

I'm gonna go play
with Jensen.

But I'm not done eating
yet.

But--but I'm done.

But, no, we eat lunch
together every day.

That means we wait until
we're both done eating.

Jabbar, go back over there.

No, we said we would
eat together every day!

- Stop!
- No!

- Yes!
- No, you're breaking the rules!

You have to wait until
I'm done eating!

- No, I don't!
- Yes, you do!

- No, I don't!
- Yes, you do!

- No, I don't!
- Yes, you do!

My dad said
I had to sit with you

because there's
something wrong with you!

There's nothing wrong
with me!

Hey, Amy, check this out.

It's all over Facebook.

Oh, my God.
Is that Mr. Cyr?

Yes.

Dude, come here.
Look at this picture.

Mr. Cyr making out
with some chick.

- Oh, my God.
- I'll see you guys.

Drew, scandalous, right?

Yeah, man, it's hilarious.
It's so funny.

- What's your problem?
- That's my mom.

In the picture.
That's my mom.

- It is?
- Yes. What is she--?

Oh, my God,
it's my whole family.

Everyone is so unstable.
I can't believe it.

I mean, she went from my dad
who was,

like, was a drug addict,
and now she's dating

some high school
English teacher.

And then my aunt, she's trying
to buy a baby right now,

literally trying to buy
people's babies.

Did you know my grandfather

is doing erectile dysfunction
commercials?

I mean, you know what?

No wonder our date
went so bad.

I mean, let's be honest.
It wasn't good at all.

And my sister, my sister wasn't
even supposed to be there.

You know, I'm the one
that asked you out.

God, I'm the one
that liked you.

Thanks for showing me
the photo.

The kids were eating lunch.

I mean,
everything was fine,

uh, until I heard
the shouting.

And as I got closer,
Max pushed Jabbar on the ground.

How did this whole thing
start?

I don't get what happened.

Max told us that Jabbar was
supposed to eat with him.

I'm sorry,
I'm a little confused,

because I thought that we
figured out the lunch issue.

The lunch issue?

You said that you talked
to your brother.

I said I was going to

and I didn't end up
having time to, so--

What is--
what is this about?

I don't know
what's going on here.

What the hell's going on,
Crosby?

Max told Jabbar that they had
to eat lunch together every day.

I thought that they
wanted to eat together.

Yeah. What--?

- Not--not all the time.
- What?

So what do you mean,

you didn't have a chance
to talk to Adam?

That's what we agreed, that that
was the best way to handle this.

I spoke to Jabbar,
we had a conversation,

and I thought the whole lunch
thing would blow over,

and it didn't.

I'm sorry.
What did you say to Jabbar?

It's not relevant.
It doesn't matter, clearly.

Yes, it is relevant.

He said that I had to
be nice to Max

because there's
something wrong with him.

No, no, no, no,
that is not what I said.

Max, nothing's wrong
with you.

I said that we're family
and we need to stick together

and I said that Max
has some problems.

Who doesn't have problems?

You should have
listened to her

and come and talked
to me.

What the hell's the matter
with you?

Lookit, I went out
of my way to ask my son

to do something that he didn't
want to do for you.

How are you mad at me?
This is a new school for him.

He's trying to work it out.
How is that relevant?

You're mad at me because
I'm trying to help you!

You feel okay so he can
come to a regular school

so he's not stigmatized.

Am I supposed to be the only
one who can't talk about it?

You guys can talk about it.

You can talk about it
with your son, but I never--

You don't get it.

He has Asperger's,
and we've worked very hard

to make sure that he doesn't
view it like a limitation.

Okay, so I won't ever
talk about it.

- Good!
- I mean, honestly!

If you just did
what I told you to do,

you wouldn't be
in this mess.

Okay, I'm so sorry,
sweetie.

I'm sorry I failed you
again.

Yeah, well, at least
you're consistent.

- Where?
- Do you like Italian?

I do.

Oh, jeez, hang on.

- Oh, hi!
- Hey, Drew.

Sorry.

- You know Mark.
- Sure do.

- Hello.
- How was school? Huh?

Drew.
What?

- How was school?
- School was great, all right?

I'm the laughingstock right now,
so thanks.

Wait. Why? Come here.
Talk to me. What happened?

Because there's a picture of
you guys making out

going around school, so--
- What? What do you mean?

Making out in front
of the school in a car.

- Of us?
- Yeah, of you.

- That's impossible, honey.
- Um, okay, well, there is, so--

Oh, it's from--we're--
well--

- We weren't making out.
- We weren't making out.

- We just were saying good-bye.
- Oh, great, great.

So you weren't making out.
All right, cool.

- I mean, who has the picture?
- Everyone, mom.

Including the girl
that I like, so thanks.

Oh, honey.

You'll probably see it
in the yearbook.

Hey.

Well, I have been pretty
full of myself

for the past week or so,
haven't I?

- Really?
- Yeah.

Yeah, I mean, you know, I--
it was a good job.

I really liked it,
but heck, you know,

it's not like I want to do it
the rest of my life or anything.

Well, why not,
if you love it?

Well, Millie, I just don't
want it to drive a wedge

between you and I.

Yeah, I know.

I know you don't.

I did feel, uh, left out.

I mean, you were just
so happy.

You know, you were
incredibly happy and, uh,

I had nothing to do with it.

See?
That's the thing.

None of it had anything
to do with me.

But it started me thinking
that I have to find

something like that
for myself, you know?

Something that makes me feel
that way.

Maybe I have to do something
more with my painting.

You know, put my stuff
out there.

Um, I started learning
to speak Mandarin,

something I've always
wanted to do.

I don't know.
Something.

I'll figure it out.

The good thing is that it, um,
inspired me, you know?

You inspired me, so--

Aw, come on.

Well, you did.

Me?

Sure.

So what was it like,
kissing a much younger woman?

What was she, like 35?

28.

Oh, Millie...

So, uh, guess what?

I stole something from work,
and I was thinking that,

you know, if I did
another commercial,

maybe I should get to know
its properties.

You don't need that.
