The L.A. Complex (2012): Season 2, Episode 11 - Now or Never - full transcript

Previously on
The L.A. Complex...

I know a way you can make
a lot of money real fast.

I pay you twenty-five dollars
every card you swipe.

The movie, let's make it.

What, now?!

My parents think I'm a
pre-med student at UCLA.

Just tell them.

I dropped out of school.

You're cut off!

I like you.
I like you too, man,

but I'm not interested
in any of the demons



that you're bringing
in with you.

You figure out how
to cut them loose

and you give me a call.

I'm sorry.

Goodbye, Kal.

Infinite jest,

him and his crew
are all over YouTube.

Let's go right now, you and me.

Who are you?

I'm your sister.

I'm with the church
of Scienetics.

I'm in.

My dad lost his job,
we had to live in our car,

and then one day he says that
he's gonna go look for work.



And he never came back?

Still waiting.

Dad!

- Hey!
- Dad! Dad!

Hey, buddy.

Oh, I missed you so much!

I missed you too, buddy.

Hey, look, this is for you.

I brought it all the way
from the Yukon.

Come on.

- Hi.
- Hey.

Hey, Bumblebee.

Hi.

Hey.

Hi.

I thought you went to Alaska.

And I got a great job!
I'm working on a pipeline.

Kevin, this is my dad.

Dad, this is Kevin, Cam,
Dita, Eddie,

and the girl
from Teenage Wasteland.

It's Raquel.
It's not hard.

Wow.
You guys got a lot of friends.

Yeah! I'm helping
Kevin and Cam make a movie!

Did you see all those bubbles?

Yeah.
I made them!

Wow! That's cool.

So are you staying with us?

Uh...

Um... Yeah.
Yeah, of course.

Where else would he stay.

That's great.

Come to our room!

We've got our own beds
and everything!

So... what happens now?

2x11 Now or Never

Well, it's an indie, but
we're expecting it to do well

on the festival circuit, so...

No.

Excuse me?

Well, I really wish that
we could do something for you,

but we just don't give loans
to high risk investments.

Not to mention the fact that
you just declared bankruptcy.

- I'd like to talk to your manager.
- He'll tell you the same thing.

It's not gonna happen, let's just...

I would like to speak
to your manager, please.

- Ready?
- Yeah!

And... action!

Uh, no, I understand.

Thank you.

♪ Come on, come on ♪

Your one o'clock's is wondering
if they can reschedule to 1:15?

Also, I noticed that you're filing
your c-17s and under c-20...

Caroline?

Excuse me, ma'am.

Goodbye, George.

Cut!

Sorry about the mess!

Abby!

Abby, it's Gray.

Abby!

Abby?

Abby? Hey!

What

-what are you doing?!

I knocked.
You didn't answer.

I saw you through the...

- I thought you were dead.
- You thought I was dead?!

Or... or dying.

No, no. I just...

I just took a couple pills
just to calm my nerves.

How many did you take?

Too many, obviously.

What're you doing here?

I thought you were
gonna come later.

I was trying to be romantic.

Surprise!

Oh God, don't look at me.

What?

Really? If this is you looking
bad, I am a very lucky man.

I'm gonna take a shower.

That sounds like a plan.

"They're almost here""

"well, tell them to hurry!

I can't hold this
bridge up forever!"

Hey, guys, what
is this for anyway?

This is a tv show?

It's a feature, actually.

It's about a bunch
of kid superheroes.

Simon, concentrate.

Again!
"They're almost here""

"well, tell them to hurry-"

Hey, guys, I...
Dad!

No, I got a great idea.
We should just...

Let's just play hooky today.

We didn't come to
California to play hooky.

I know, but I just got here.

Let me just-let's
just go somewhere fun.

Let me do something fun
with you guys, come on.

We're working.
It is our job.

You don't take breaks?

Come on!
Buddy, buddy,

how would you feel about riding
some roller coasters today?

- For real?!
- For real!

- Right now?
- Right now.

We can't!
We have an audition.

Okay, all right.
That's fine.

Sorry, bud,
there's no roller coasters.

I was outta line.

Great. Okay, fine.

Yeah, let's go ride
some roller coasters.

Let's spend money instead
of trying to make it.

Oh, yes!

Can we get those tiny donuts?

Of course!
Buddy, whatever you want.

Thanks.

Yeah.

Is now an okay time
or should I come back?

Yeah, it's fine.

I break things.

I'm trying to stop.

You seriously went into a
store and bought this?

You asked me
to get rid of my baggage

and I'm working on that.

I wanna do this - you and me.

But you gotta understand
something.

I can't go from...
from zero to sixty,

- holding hands in public and...
- I'm not asking for that.

- My job, the line of work I'm in...
- I get it. It's a process.

You sure you wanna sign up for that?

All I'm asking is that
you be open with me.

The rest we can work on.

So what happens now?

Why don't you invite
me over for dinner?

I'd love to, but my dad
is staying with me.

- He doesn't...
- Right.

My place then?

Sabrina?
What's uh...?

Thanks to you,
I just got evicted.

Well, why?

Why?

You convinced me to tell my parents
what I actually do for a living

and they cut me off.

Well, how does
that get you evicted?

They're my landlords.

What're you gonna do?

I'm moving in, roomie.

Oh, I don't-I don't know if...

Historically, girls moving in
with me prematurely...

What, are you gonna
turn me away?

No, I...

I don't even have time
to discuss this right now.

I have an audition for
that Will Arnett sketch show

this afternoon.

Hey, that's great!

Is it?! Is it great?!

The biggest audition of my life

on a day I have absolutely
no time to prepare?

Well, what are we
standing around for?

Let's get you unpacked.

That was amazing!
I can't believe that worked!

We can do this,
we can tally shoot this movie!

Easy there, tiger,

we haven't watched the footage.

Let's not start writing
our Oscar speeches quite yet.

No, no, we got it.
You guys killed it.

And these lenses are awesome!

Yeah, and expensive;
I'm officially in overdraft.

You're sure you can pay me back?

That's what
the fundraiser's for.

I'm sorry, we're...
We're banking on the fundraiser

pulling me out of overdraft?

Relax. I'm working
other angles.

It's fine.

I just hope I can cut
a decent trailer

to show with the footage
we've shot.

Look, that's the
least of our problems...

Who's gonna play
my love interest?

And don't say
it's one of you two clowns.

I say we stunt cast it -
it's only a couple scenes.

It'd be great
to get somebody famous

for the trailer.

What am I?

What, you're gonna
play your own love interest?

We need a name.
Somebody hot.

And cool...
With piercing blue eyes.

Maybe an accent.

What's up, guys?

No. Absolutely not.

Come on!

I said no.

Let's see here...

Hey!

Hi!
Cleaning up my desktop.

What's up?

Uh, just wanted to drop off
the rent check

for Charlotte and me.

Great! Thank you.

Uh, you know, hey, speaking of...
your lovely, enigmatic sister,

I wanted to ask you something...

- No.
- Just... Let me finish.

Are there any suitors
in Charlotte's web?

You are not dating my sister.

Okay, that's...
Uh, you know, I wasn't...

I was asking for a friend.

What're you reading there?

It's a scienetics book.

Oh! Is that the one
by the woman

that talks about how crazy
the whole thing is?

No, no. It's just
a scienetics book,

about scienetics.

I'm taking a class.

Yeah, right.

- Really?
- Yeah. What?

I mean, you're
talking about scienetics...

"Scienetics" scienetics, right?

Well, I know they've got
a bit of a reputation

for being a little
out there, but...

A bit out there?!

With the ballistic federations
and ghouls in volcanos,

and the evil lord neezu
and whatnot?

Connor, you didn't give them
any money, did you?

Dude, you need to go up
to your room

and Google them extensively

before you give them
another penny.

Well, it's...
It's just a religion.

It's not a religion, Connor.

They're a cult.

Oh, good, water -

gotta flush those toxins out!

So here, this stuff
will really help you

with your detox sequence.

Are you playing me?

What do you mean?

Who's neezu?
Spaceships...

I got aliens invading souls...
Volcanoes...

Okay, just talk to Roxanne.

I don't wanna talk to her!
I'm asking you, Charlotte!

Have I just joined a cult?

No. I would never
do that!

Do you get ten percent
of toney that I pay

for landing a new recruit?

Yes, but that's not
what this is about!

Connor!
Connor, please!

Take a hint!

Connor, just... stop!
Connor!

Can you get-
stop! Please!

I've spent my entire life
trying to find you.

I wouldn't do anything
to hurt you.

Just talk to Roxanne.

All right, that's the last of...

What is this?
What's happening?

I'm doing yoga.

I put my back out, you idiot!

Well, can I-?
Here, can I help you?

No! No, no, no, no.
You'll just make it worse.

I'm fine.
This just happens sometimes.

Really? Since when?

My doctor says
it's stress-related.

It'll go away when you do.

So you're just...
Just gonna lie there?

No. I have to work
on my audition.

Well, can I get you
anything else...

Just... leave me alone.

I don't need your help.

Really?

Cuz it super-looks like you do.

Okay. I'll uh...

I'll be over here
if you change your mind.

Sorry.

Slow is worse, isn't it?

So how long do I have
you for before you ship out?

Actually, I'm in the air force.

We're partial to flying.

Whatever!
You know what I mean.

Seventy-two hours.

How long are you gone for?

Uh, I can't say.

Because you don't know
or because you can't tell me?

I can't say.

But I just found you.

So what do you wanna do with me?

What do I wanna do?

You're the one who has
to leave the country

in seventy-two hours.

You are leaving the country,
right?

Nice try.

I don't know,
I was thinking um...

Go to the opera, hmm?

Or... rock-climbing?

You got any other ideas?

Opera it is.

♪ I love the way she look ♪

♪ I love her eyes on me ♪

♪ I need your full attention ♪

♪ I need to feel your body ♪

♪ go on and pawn that- ♪

You forget something?

I've been distracted, and um...

I know I've disrespected you

and wasted a lot of your time.

But I'm done with all that.

I'm here to work...

If you'll still work with me.

That's all you gotta say to me?

What, you want a hug
or something?

No. I got another client
coming in...

But we've got a couple of hours.

So what are we working on?

I wanna take things
in a new direction.

Follow me on this.

All right,
I got something for you.

Let's get some levels.

Wow! This place is awesome!

Hey, you see that Mountain?

I had them build that
just for you.

It's called Simon Mountain.

- No, it isn't.
- Yes, it is.

Whoa, look, it's wizard world!

Hey, hey!
Come on!

Let's keep your eyes
on the prize, right?

We're here to ride the coasters!

That's what we're doing first.

I don't think he's old enough.

Yeah.

Yeah, they probably
won't let me on.

Hey, how 'bout you let
your dad worry about that, huh?

Dad, if it's not safe...

Beth, it's okay, I wanna do it.

Well, I'm not going.
That ride looks dumb.

All right, well,
I guess it's just us guys then.

All right, we'll uh...
Meet you back here in...

What?
Thirty minutes.

Woo-hoo!

What are you doing?

Foot massage;
It alleviates back pain.

Just pretend I'm not here.

Pass me that lamp?

- What, this one?
- Yeah.

How hard do you think I need
to hit you

over the head with it

not to kill you,

just to knock you out
for like seventeen hours?

I'm gonna put this back.

You're driving me crazy!

I'm... I'm trying to help.

If you wanna help, leave.

Even your breathing is annoying!

All right, I know that
you're in pain right now

and that this is
a very big day for you,

so although what you're saying
is hurtful,

I'm not gonna take it
personally.

I hate you so much right now.

Okay, I'll tell you
what I'm gonna do.

I'm gonna go out
and let you prepare in peace.

- Ow!
- Ow!

I believe in you.

On the card, right?
Yeah.

Hey!
What the hell are you doing?

What do you mean?

I saw what you did!

Hey! Hey!

She swiped my card
on top of the counter

and then she swiped it again
on something underneath.

All right,
just settle down, Frank.

What happened?

Your bitch bartender here

is trying to pull one over
on me.

Whoa, whoa!
Watch the mouth.

He's had a lot to drink.

I saw you swipe the card twice.

I-I-I did swipe it twice

because it didn't go through
the first time,

so I had to do it again.

That's not what I saw.

Well, you're seeing things!

Maybe you should switch
to coffee for a while, bitch.

You little-

Whoa! Whoa!

Aggghhhh!

Hey! What're you
throwing me out for, huh?!

She's the one who's stealing!

You okay?

Mm-hmm.

That was close, huh?

Yeah.

How long is she gonna
keep us waiting?

She should be right out.

That's...
That's Peter Shelton.

Connor lake.

Oh!
Man, I'm a huge fan!

Peter Shelton.

Oh, I know who you are,

I grew up watching your movies.

I'm a huge fan of yours.

Oh, you're too kind.

Is this the uh...
Detox sequence?

Yeah.

Yeah?
Making me nostalgic.

Well, look, I don't wanna
take up your time,

but boy, it's great
to see you in here.

It really is.

This place did
amazing things for me.

If you need anything,
I want you to call me.

That's my private number.

All right?

Thank you, that...

We'll talk!

Thank you.
I'm here a lot.

I'll see you around, Connor.

Peter Shelton
just gave me his number.

Connor?

I'm sorry to keep you waiting.

Are you sure you don't
want me to come with you?

No. I got it.

Afghanistan?

Is that where you're going?

No, I just thought I'd do
the Italian place

around the corner.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Who's your nordic friend?

Nobody.

We share a wall.

His name is Gray
and he's an air force pilot.

Fine, don't tell me.

Is it serious?

Yeah. It is.

I just feel like I've known him
for a long time.

Have you ever met anyone

and you just thought,
"hey, this might be it"?

Yeah, I uh...
I know what you mean.

Hey, Nick,

if you're gonna flirt
with your ex-girlfriend,

do you maybe wanna
take it downstairs?

I'm just probably...
I'm just gonna...

Just... I think I...

Oh, I have an idea,
I'm gonna take a walk.

Can I help you?

Oh, I'm sorry.
I didn't...

No, no, it's cool.
Come on in.

Hey, yo, D,
that's my father, Walter.

I told him to come through.

Hey, nice to meet you.

That was...
Did you write that?

Yeah, your son's got a gift.

Can I hear some more?

Sit down.

What kind of name is Zeus?

I mean, don't get me wrong,

you're a good guy
and everything,

but who names their kid Zeus?

I mean, out of all
of the people,

I'm just saying, you don't...

If you ever have a kid
and you call him Hercules-

Manny, can I talk to you?

Here's the thing.

I scanned this,
but you can't use it, okay?

Because he saw me.

No problem, wasteland.

What's wrong?

I can't do this anymore.
This is crazy.

What're you doing?
What is this?

That's for yesterday.

All of this is for yesterday?!

You wanna put that away?

You're a natural, wasteland.

Don't lose your nerve.

He can't just eat
junk food all day.

Come on, give him a break.
It's just one day.

Yeah, Beth, it's just one day.

Are the mountains in the Yukon

as tall as that Mountain?

Oh, buddy, they're taller.

You know what?
As a matter of fact,

during the gold rush,
prospectors,

they had to climb up mount Logan

or face certain death.

Did they survive?

Some of them, some of them did,

and then some went insane,
and some died of scurvy.

But, buddy,
the ones that did make it,

they went on to be millionaires.

The Yukon sounds wicked.

Yeah, yeah.

I've always dreamt of dying
insane, on a Mountain.

It is!
It is wicked cool, man.

It's like nature's theme park.

Sorry, did you just
compare the Yukon

to an amusement park?

I did.

I think it sounds cool.

Yeah, right?

So like, are there many kids
on the site

where you work?

No, no kids, uh, but...
What about women?

Are there any women
on the pipeline, dad?

Beth... No, just...
It does, it does,

it sounds wicked.
Sounds wicked and cool.

You know what?
If you have something to say,

why don't you just say it?

Guys, guys, come on...

You disappear for months,
and then you just show up.

Do you think that
we'll just forget

that you ditched us?

That you left us with nothing...

With no home, and no money?

Stop!
I was trying to get a job!

So you abandoned us?

What kind of father
just leaves his kids?!

Great.

Have a seat.

Charlotte said you had
a few questions.

Yeah, just a couple.

How's the detox sequence going?

How do you feel?

Well, I feel like you left out
some pretty significant details

in our conversations yesterday.

Such as?

What's all this Sci-Fi stuff?

Are you even a real religion?

Yes, we are.

The IRS spent twenty-six years
trying and failing

to prove otherwise.

No other religion
in the history of man

has undergone such scrutiny.

Yeah, well,
after what I read online,

I'm not surprised.

The aggression you're feeling

is quite common part
of the detox process.

Believe it or not,
it's actually a good sign.

That's not an answer.

Let me ask you this:

Are you feeling better?
Happier? More confident?

Well, I was...
Until I opened my computer.

Well, don't open your computer.

You wanna get better, Connor,

I know you do.

Don't throw away the chance

because of something you read
on the Internet.

This is your pattern.

You sabotage the good,
nurture the bad.

Am I wrong?

No.

Break your pattern.

All right, this is
gonna sting a little bit.

Can you handle it?

Ooh! Tough guy, huh?

What, a tough guy can't wince?

I took a bite for you, look.

Well, I gotta say,
that's a first for me.

Uh, can I ask you something?

And I mean, feel free to say no.

I mean, don't say no
if you don't wanna say no,

it's not like I'm gonna fire you

if you say no...

I'm... I'm totally
screwing this up.

Do you wanna go out on a date,
with me?

Please don't sue me.

I'd love to.

Um, but uh...
I shouldn't.

Things are just a little
complicated right now.

No, I totally get it.
Uh, I just... Had to ask.

Okay.

Uh, can I take a rain check...

For when things
un-complicate themselves?

Yeah.
I honor rain checks.

Okay.
Good night.

You too.

Back any better?

Yeah, all better.

I just really enjoy
this point of view.

What?

I got you some supplies.

Muscle relaxants, ice pack,

and heat pack - lady's choice...
And...

A girdle?

It's a decompression belt.

We're getting you
to this audition.

No. No, we're not.

How do you expect me to audition

when I'm half-asleep
on back pills,

wearing some weird
medical chastity belt?

This isn't gonna happen.

Just because you got me
into this situation

doesn't mean you can get me out.

Whoa!
How is this my fault?

You made me tell
my parents I dropped out of school.

You got me kicked out
of my apartment.

You carried pillows
while I carried books.

You are the reason I'm missing

the most important audition
of life.

Okay, first of all,

I did not know
there were pillows in that box.

I just grabbed the biggest one
'cause I'm a gentleman.

And I'm not the one who made you

lie to your parents

while embezzling $80,000
dollars from them.

This is on you, not me.

So you can lie there
and feel bad about it,

or we can do something about it.

Just leave me alone.

- Ow! What the...
- Put 'em on.

Leave you alone...

This is really good.

I didn't know
these guys did takeout.

Yeah, well, they don't usually.

And now you're just showing off.

Mm-hmm.

Have you ever been to Italy?

Uh, no.

Actually, I haven't
really been anywhere

except for L.A.,
Toronto and Montreal.

Oh. There ishis place
in Florence,

their gelato's so good

that they were the only place
the allies supplied power to

during world war two.

That must be some good gelato.

Right?

We should go.

I'm telling you, you'd love it.

When I get back,

I'm gonna take you there, okay?

You wanna take me to Italy?

Yeah. Why not?

And when do you get back?

A year? Two years?

What are we talking about?
This is crazy.

Why?
What's crazy about it?

Because it's never
going to happen.

You're gonna be gone
and that'll be it.

Might as well just...
Be realistic

and enjoy the time we have now.

I'm sorry,

did u just give me
a three day heads up

on our breakup?

Yeah.
I... I guess I did.

Thanks, D.
I needed that.

Sorry about going over.

No, no.

We got it,
that's all that matters.

And that was good, Kal.

It's a pleasure meeting you.

You should bring the old man
through more often.

Maybe I will.

I'd like that.

At're you up to?
You wanna grab a bite to eat?

I would,
but I already got plans.

Okay. Another time.

What the hell you doing here?

No, he cool.
He's with me.

Yeah.

Go on in.

Turns out the kid's got skills.

Business is business.

All right, Sabrina Reynolds?

Sabrina?

Sorry, is this a duo?
Will doesn't like teams.

No! No, no, no.
Ignore me.

I'm not here.

I'll be right over there
when you're done, okay?

Break a leg.

So the first thing
you should know is...

I threw my back out today
and I can't move.

The second thing you should know

is that my act relies heavily
on juggling.

So who's ready
for some very still comedy?

How are you guys
at using your imaginations?

Can I come to the base
to see you off when you go?

Yeah, I'm not really one
for big good-byes.

No, it's a-
it's a superstition thing.

'Kay, I don't even
let my parents see me off.

No, I get it.

So what's it like...
Over there?

Well, it depends, you know?

Sometimes it's scary.

But, Abby, sometimes
it's boring as hell.

You know what
the good part is...

You never take anything
for granted.

There's no such thing
as an unimportant minute.

Well, how many more minutes
do we have?

Around four thousand.

I don't want you to go.

Is that her?

Yeah.

Connor, can I
talk to you for a second?

I'll see you inside.

Is that her?

Yeah.

Mm. Well, she's... Tall.

Um, look, I uh...

I just wanted to...

Sometimes I...

Ugh! Okay... um...

We're making a movie,
do you want to be in it?

What?

Cam and Kevin and I are
making a movie

and we need someone
to play my love interest

for a couple scenes.

It's a great role

and a very small
time commitment.

So uh... what do ya say?

That's what
you wanna talk about?

I thought maybe
you were about to apologize.

Well, I was, but, you know, I...

I... come on!

You know.

You are amazing, you know that?

You don't wanna talk about
all the mean things

that you said?

Do you wanna talk about
all the mean things you said?

No. Not particularly.

Okay. Can we call this
the talk then?

What's this movie about?

Well, it's this beautiful, sad,

magic-realism kinda thing.

I'm the slowly dying girl

and you're the man
I can never have.

Do you die at the end?

Yes.
When do we start?

Admit it.

You missed this a little bit.

I admit nothing.

from your heart ♪

Thanks, Bumblebee.

There you go, buddy.

I guess it was a little bit
too much excitement

for one day.

Hey, um...

You know that I was just trying
to make up for lost time,

right?

Bumblebee?

We're not going back with you.

Listen, I...

I got-I got a job now,
all right?

I found us a place to live.

I can take care of us again.

No.
This is our home now.

No, a hotel room
is not your home.

And some cabin in the woods is?

No. We're staying.

Listen to me,
this is not a negotiation.

You are coming.

I'm eighteen.

I don't have to do
anything you say.

You know, you're right.
You're right.

You're right, I can't.

I can't make you come.
I'm sorry.

But, you know,
I really wish that you would.

I really do.

It was nice to see you.

Hey...
Buddy, wake up.

What're you doing?

Simon, wake up.

What is it?

Come on, we're gonna...
Get your things packed.

Dad, I said we're
not going with you...

I know you're not coming, Beth.

I wanna hear what Simon
has to say, okay?

Thanks.

Buddy, what do you say?

You wanna...
You wanna come live with dad?

- To the Yukon?
- Yeah.

Just the two of us.

But what about Beth?

I can't, Simon.

Listen, it's gonna be
an adventure.

It's gonna be great.
Just us guys, okay?

No.

I wanna stay with Beth.

And...

Owww! Ow! My back!
My back!

Oh no! Are you serious?

Yeah, no...
No, I'm not serious.

That's not funny.

Oh, come on...
It's a little funny.

Okay...

I get it, you hate being helped.

What?

You like me.

I do?

I mean, yeah, I do.

And that's scary, right?

'Cause like, you really like me,

and I've...
No one's ever...

I think I might love you.

No! No!

What? "No"?!

No. I just...

I really wanted to say it first.

I'm sorry, baby.

I'd make it up to you, I just...

My back, so much pain.

Yeah, well...

There's other things we can do.

Yeah.

Dad!

Dad, leave him alone!

Beth! Beth!

Put him down!
Please!

- Put me down!
- Dad, put him down!

Dad, please!

What's going on?

- Hey! Put him down!
- Stop! Dad!

It's all right, my kid!

I said put him down!

Beth, this is for his own good.

No, it's not.
It's for your own good.

Put the boy down.

Dad...

Hey, buddy...

Simon!

Are you okay?

I'm sorry.

- You don't have to-
- Just take it.

You okay?

Uh, yeah.

Thank you.

What the hell
was that all about?

I don't know.

I see you really miss tv rehab.

We're friends, right?

Yeah. Shut up.
Okay.

Did that just happen?
That is so surreal.

What are you doing?

I need more
than four thousand minutes.

Man, you don't understand,
Rook's like my brother.

We came up together.

Nobody knows me better than him.

He's not
working for you anymore.

What else is he supposed to do?

Not go work for the person
who torched my car!

Well, you're not
paying him anymore.

Man's gotta make a living.

Do you always take the side
of the person that's not here?

I'm sorry.
Force of habit.

You know what?

I'll deal with this
rook-stuff tomorrow.

Today was a good day.

So what, are you gonna
sit there all night

or are you gonna help me
make us dinner?

You know I don't cook.

You do now.

Grab that knife
and start chopping.

All right.

No, no, no.

That's not how you do it.

What, I don't know
how to chop now?

I got this.

Well, it's not just that,
it's...

I kinda just wanna do this.

You're the only person I know

who gets more calls than me.

So let it ring then.

No, I got it.

Don't answer my-
get off my phone!

Yo, this is Kal.
Whassup?

Come on...
Who is it?
