Maxwell.

Maxwell.

Maxwell.

Max.

Max!

The time has come.

Don't let me down.

Hey, Maxwell?

- Hey.
- Hey, uh, what...?

What are you doing?

Do you know
where Arthur is buried?

- Arthur?
- Yeah.

Wait, Dad?

No, the dog!

- You mean Tony?
- Yes.

Yeah, wait, what...
what did I say?

- You said Arthur.
- Are you sure?

I'm pretty sure I said Tony.

Yeah, well you didn't.

God.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Hey, what are you... why are you
trying to dig up Tony?

Dad... Dad asked me to,
at the hospital.

It was one of the last things
he asked me to do.

Ah, okay, um.

Well, uh,

you know,
why don't the two of us

just come out later
and we can look together?

You know, when it's not raining.

Come on.

Okay, yeah, that's fine.

All right, well.

Let me just
fill these holes in real quick.

Okay, well do you
want my help, or...

No, no, it's fine.

I need... I just... I know
where everything goes, you know?

All right, well,
you're gonna come in?

- Yes.
- Okay.

- I'll see you inside?
- Okay.

I'll get you a towel.

- Coffee?
- Please.

Wanna tell me
what that was out there?

Um, it was his last wish.

Okay, well, I'm just...

you know better
than most of us that he was

a bit out of it
toward the end there, so.

And what is this, I mean,
are you wearing the same clothes

that you were wearing
at his funeral yesterday?

- It's laundry day.
- I mean, I'm not a doctor

or anything,
but this looks a bit like

a breakdown.

What exactly is that
supposed to mean?

Don't tell people
I had a breakdown, okay?

I have responsibilities.

Look, I'm just
a little worried about you,

okay?

Will you close your eyes?

- Hard pass.
- Please close your eyes.

Okay.

Your guitar.

I found it in the basement with
all your other old instruments.

- Okay?
- Isn't it exciting?

I thought maybe you could,
you know, like,

start playing again,
and call your old bandmates

from high school and...

- Yeah, sure.
- ...get back together.

With work and everything
going on with Dad,

and everything else, I'll just
start writing songs again.

Exactly, that's what
I'm saying, you should.

Oh, but I was gonna
open a restaurant,

and I have to
finish writing my novel,

and of course
I'm running for mayor, so.

All right, well I hope all that
goes really well for you.

- Thank you.
- Very funny, you're so busy.

- Mr. Busy.
- I am busy.

Look, Dad's lawyer's gonna
be here later this afternoon.

I have some things I gotta
get done beforehand, okay?

We're gonna do
the lawyer thing without Jenna?

We're gonna meet with
the family lawyer

- without our sister?
- I know, I feel bad,

but what am I supposed to do?

She was off the grid,
by the time I got in touch

with her, tomorrow's
the earliest she can get back.

Okay.

So, do me a favor
and just change.

- Me change?
- Yeah.

Look at you.

I'm gonna change,
you know I'm gonna change.

I'm saying it because
I don't know if you will change.

I do not know that
you're gonna change.

We'll both change then,
how about that?

Just maybe give it a tickle.

Now, let's get to
the crux of the matter.

- Sure.
- Did I say that correctly?

"Arthur Grant,"
that's your father,

"Arthur Grant endowed a fund
specifically to preserve

a habitat
in which a species lives

and named himself,"
this is interesting,

"he named himself the Chairman

of the North American
Sloth Fund."

- "Soft funds"?
- No, no, no, Sloth Fund.

- The North American Sloth Fund.
- "Soft fund"?

- Sloth, Sloth Fund.
- Slaw, Slaw Fund.

- There's no need to get loud.
- Slaw Fund, Slaw Fund.

Sloth Fund.

The North American sloth
is a subspecies of sloth

that lives in North America

whose ranks have been
decimated by modernity.

I'm sorry, there are sloths
here in North America?

Yeah, but where else would
a North American sloth be?

Do you know what I mean?

- Ah, ba, ba, ba, ba, ba.
- I'm sorry, can you tell me

- where this preserve is?
- The land adjacent

to this property here
is the largest habitat

for sloths living here,
and your dad was into it,

so he put all of his time
and energy into

making this
land preserve happen,

which gets me to my final point:

Your father
had no more money left.

Wait, what? I'm sorry,
what about all his investments?

He burned through those assets
like left and right.

Honestly, I didn't wanna
bring this up today,

but this home, he took
a reverse mortgage on this home,

- What is a reverse mortgage?
- The bank owns this home.

Okay, I'm sorry,
this is a little shocking

- for us to hear, we had no idea.
- Yeah, mm-hm, of course.

- He has no assets left?
- He has none.

All of this to say,
you're gonna need to add

another $10,000 to the fund

- by the end of this month.
- By the end of this month?

- That's... that's next week.
- That is next week.

Um, that is true, about,
yeah, that's true.

Um, okay, okay.

What happens...
can I just ask a question?

- Hit me.
- What happens

if the fund closes,
hypothetically?

If this fund closes?
I mean, if the fund closes,

you know,
it goes back into public land,

and like, they'll put
a strip mall on it,

and the sloths are gone.

But, um, which kind of
gets to all this

to finalize and say... I mean,
I threw a lot at you guys,

but I just wanna, like, if you...

you know, on a personal note,

if we can just land here,

is that, um,

your father,

he meant a lot to me,

and, uh, he was
truly a mentor to me.

- Uh-huh.
- And, um...

I don't know how to say this,
but in, like,

the legal communities, you know,
he was like a real...

- You need to take that?
- Good, finish, please.

I'm just like
in the middle of this thing.

Yeah, yeah, yeah,
no, go, go, go.

He, like... God, what was it?

Like, in the legal community...
take it if you need to take it.

- I just... I do need to take it...
- Okay, let me... let me just

- finish this, let me finish...
- Go ahead.

In the legal community,
he was like a lion.

- Wow, thank you.
- You know what I mean?

I do, I do, I'm sorry,
I do have to take this.

- Thank you so much...
- Barney, thank you.

- I'm... okay, thank you.
- Thank you.

- I'm Barney, that's Max.
- Barney.

Oh, I've been meaning
to ask you this.

Does, um... is your dad...

was he, like,
into The Flintstones?

- Hey, how are you feeling?
- Ugh,

I'm okay, thank you.

- Wait, why?
- We heard about

your father's passing,
of course.

Oh, yes, no, of course,

I... I thought
maybe you had heard

I had a breakdown,
which I assure you,

- I have not had.
- Okay.

I kind of disassociated
very briefly

after my father's passing,
full disclosure,

but I am fine now,
100 percent, ready to go.

Okay, thanks for that.

Sorry to dive right in,
but I have Clara, Nishant,

Neil, Blaire, and Thomas
on the line also.

Okay, yes, thank you, go ahead.

So, these will be
a little different

than the previous batch,
I'll let Thomas discuss it

a little more.

We're gonna have a project
that is almost exactly the same

- in scope as the previous batch.
- Max, yo!

- What?
- I saw one of those things,

one of those...
those sloth things.

- What?
- One of the... the sloths

the lawyer was talking about,
the Sloth Fund.

- Really?
- Huh, what?

Are you sure
it wasn't like a cat?

Absolutely could've been a cat,
it was very dark,

there were a lot of shadows,
but I think it might've been

- one of those sloths.
- Okay, I'm on a work call.

- Can I talk to you later?
- Huh?

I'm on a work call,
can I talk to you later?

Okay, I'm gonna be...
just meet me

- in five at the thing.
- Maxwell, did we lose you?

- Wait, we lost you.
- Hey, I'm sorry.

Sorry, you cut out
for one second,

- can you say that again?
- Their CMO said they loved

the first round,
but it was too artsy.

- I see.
- And Ben said he's had

- this chat with you before.
- Yeah, no, no, I understand,

- loud and clear.
- Okay, thanks.

- Let's really make it pop.
- Yep, it'll be perfect.

I'll start a pitch deck tonight,
I should have something

- for you tomorrow.
- You sure we shouldn't give this

- to someone else right now?
- No, no, no, really, I am fine.

I do appreciate that,
but I'm fine.

- Thank you.
- Great, thanks.

All right, thank you
for the call, bye for now.

Bye.

This is about where I saw 'em.

I'd be crazy
for there to be a mall here.

You should really pay
that Sloth Fund thing.

You have a corporate job.

Might as well put that
blood money to some good use.

Blood money?

I help make industrial videos
for pharmaceutical companies.

Exactly.

It'd be pretty awesome
to have a Billy's Burritos

100 feet
from your bedroom, though.

- What are you looking at?
- Whoa!

Oh, man.

What's up?

Hey, you wanna hear an idea
for a short story?

I've been working on this,
it's called Galaxy Sloth.

Imagine this:
There's a sloth so big,

he's the size of a galaxy.

One day he saw a tree

that he wanted
to live in, right?

So, he starts moving towards it,

but because he was so big,

the laws of relativity applied.

For Galaxy Sloth,
a moment passed,

but for the tree,

it was ages.

So, when he got there,
he found it had turned rotten

and disintegrated.

That's a great story,
are you gonna...

Time passes differently

for all of us.

Okay.

That was my point.

- Okay, cool.
- If you don't act fast,

my home will be taken,

and then I'll die.

You need to pay that $10,000.

- I mean...
- Your dad would want you to.

Oh, God, please don't say that.

I mean, I'm gonna do something.

I don't... I don't have that
kind of money laying around.

Oh, gosh.

- What?
- I don't wanna hear that.

"I don't have the money."

I will die without a home.

I am not gonna let you die.

How can I help?
Tell me, please.

You already know.

I do?

Yes.

Play your part.

Maxwell, what are you doing,

a little pre-dawn nature walk?

Uh, yeah, yeah, exactly.

What about you,
what are you doing up?

Ah, yeah, I'm used to
getting up at 5:00 a.m.

for this side gig I do.

What side gig?

Uh, I'm a professional snuggler.

- Get out of here.
- Yeah.

I, uh... I freelance,
and then also

I work for this site
called CuddleFish,

- and they book me out, so.
- No kidding.

Actually, um, why don't...
you wanna...?

- No, please.
- I could...

I'm fine.

- Thanks.
- Sure.

Hey, look,

I know you didn't really
get the chance

to make up with Dad.

You didn't...

you didn't kill Dad.

I know, I know that.

You didn't... you didn't kill him.

I know that.

You didn't kill your dad,
our dad.

- I know.
- You didn't kill your dad.

Barney, I feel like
you're doing that scene

- from Good Will Hunting.
- Yeah, no, I was.

Okay, thank you, I get it.

You did everything
Dad ever wanted you to do,

and Dad didn't do anything

that he didn't wanna do,
including die.

So, just...

Man, just give that

big brain of yours a rest.

- All right.
- Okay.

I'm gonna go work on some poses.

All right.

It sounds good.

- What?
- I'm just saying it sounds good.

Hey, thanks.

Was that Tom Petty?

- Um, no.
- Oh, that sounded like

Tom Petty, which is good,

except you ever notice how
in "Free Fallin',"

he says the good girl's into
her mother, horses, and Elvis.

I mean, that sounds like
a boring conformist to me.

- I don't even know why he's...
- Hey, Barney.

- He's so like up in arms about...
- Barney, sorry.

- Yeah?
- So, I do wanna raise the money

for that sloth fund, you know?

But, I'm gonna need some help.

Will you help me?

Uh, yeah.

I've already got the solution.

Forgot this was here.

I made this to show Dad

that I could actually
build something

- that would really sell.
- Barney, what is it?

Oh, okay, oh, man,
I'm a lazy millennial.

I don't wanna eat food

and dirty dishes,
and then have to

put 'em in the dishwasher
and do 'em.

Not so fast,

lazy millennial person.

What if you have

a cabinet and a dishwasher

in one?

Take out your dishes,
you eat your yum-yums,

put them back in the dishwasher,

and you hit "Wash."

This is now clean
on that side...

- Yeah.
- ...and then there's another one

over here on this side,
so now the dirty dishes

go in here, and then
once these are clean,

- and this is clean, dirty...
- I get it.

And then, you can...
you can sell these,

and you know, use some
of the dough that you make

- for the Sloth Fund.
- Uh-huh.

See, the thing is
I don't think this is gonna work

to make the money
we need by next week.

Like, we would have to
raise money just to make these

in the first place, you know,
there's like a supply chain.

Have to market them, test them.

- All that.
- Yeah, it's just you...

No, Barney, I get it,
it's a great idea.

- Put it back in, and then...
- This is what I was thinking:

Why don't we make
a fundraising page,

and then just add some content?

You know, I thought
I could even write, like,

a "Save the Sloth" song,
or whatever.

You know?

But, my point is, I need help.

Will you help me?

I'm gonna order Chinese food.

That...

Is that a yes?

Adult Caucasian male
heroically waves away

fork for chopsticks.

It's Werner... Werner Herzog.

- You mean "Verner"?
- Is it Verner?

- Yes.
- So, I think I'm actually gonna

need to stay here for a while.

My, um,

living situation
is a bit in flux, so.

- Jenna?
- Hi!

Hey.

- Hi, guys.
- Hey.

- Hi, hi, hi.
- Hi, how are you doing?

Oh, good.

- It's so good to see you.
- Good to see you, too.

- Hi.
- Ugh,

- you smell like air travel.
- Oh, really?

It was such a long flight.

How are you, how are you?

- Ugh, okay.
- Good, we're good.

- Yeah?
- Yeah.

- You got Chinese food?
- Yeah.

- Yes.
- Oh, my God, can I have?

- Get in here.
- Yeah, it's been so long.

So, you slept in a hammock, huh?

- Yeah, it's pretty cool, right?
- It looks more like

a glammock.

It was so nice, you guys.

No phone, no email, no internet.

I already feel
too plugged back in.

Now, how does
a social media influencer

survive without
being plugged in?

- I'm a photographer.
- Mm,

- and I am a sculptor.
- Ooh, don't start.

- Don't start.
- Ohh.

You know actually,
this is a convenient segue,

how's work at the gallery,
how's it going there?

- Are you mad at me?
- Kind of.

- What happened?
- I am no longer employed

- by the gallery.
- How come?

- Yeah, how come?
- Because I quit.

Ugh, why?

Because they fired me.

And why did they fire you

from a job I got you?

My curator friend Claude
works there.

- It was this jerk Lamarck.
- I heard you punched him.

- What is wrong with you?
- What, I didn't punch him.

Yeah, my friend Allison DMed me.

Oh, this is supposed to be like
the auto-correct of the century.

I did not punch him,
I punned him.

What is that,
what does that mean?

So, like,
there's this artiste Lamarck,

he's like this
pseudo-intellectual socialite,

and he got a $100,000 grant,

and all he did was pin

$100,000 bills all over
the walls of the gallery.

So, like, one day,
it was just him and me there,

because no one was coming
to see his show,

and I walked up to him,
and I was like,

"It doesn't look like
your money is generating

a lot of interest."

- Ha!
- Don't laugh at that.

- It's great.
- You're an ingrate,

and you deserve
to be fired for that.

- It's not funny.
- I thought you were gonna say

that you, um,
stole picture frames,

and then they accused you of it,
and you were like, "No, no, no,

I was framed."

Oh, yeah, uh.

- That is pretty funny.
- Mm-hm.

Guys.

Moment of silence.

What is it for?

- It's for Dad.
- I know.

I know that.

- Sorry.
- Really?

- It's work, gotta take it.
- Like, right now though?

Yep.

Okay, silence over,
purpose served.

No, no, it's not too late.

I know, no, I actually
finished it overnight,

but I looked at it this morning

and it just wasn't
going in the right direction,

and I didn't wanna
send you something

going in
the wrong direction... yeah.

Felt so guilty
as soon as I found out.

You know, if anyone

would have forgiven you
for missing his funeral

because of work,
it would be Dad.

No, I know, I just...

I feel bad.

Well,

Maxwell's gonna be

raising money for this

sloth foundation.

Would you wanna help?

- A... a sloth foundation thing?
- Yes.

No, I...

I think I'm good.

Yeah, I...

if you give me
like another day or two,

uh, that'd be fine.

Thank you.

Okay, great, yeah, yeah.

Take care, bye.

No, I have

- What work?
- I'm editing photos.

You're pretending
to be a photographer?

Um, I am a photographer.

Oh, you are not a photographer.

You're like
a social media personality

with famous friends.

You're like a DJ claiming
to be a concert pianist.

Yeah, well,
at least I have a real job.

I'm working on stuff.

You're working on stuff?

Well, what kind of stuff
you working on?

Would you guys give me a hand?

Please.

What are you...
what are you doing?

Oh, you know, you really
shouldn't shoot from that angle.

- Very unflattering.
- Which is

the most important thing in art
is to flatter yourself, right?

- Ugh, Barney.
- Guys, I wrote a song

for the fundraiser,
from the perspective

of the sloth... a sloth.

Okay.

- So, will you guys help me?
- I have like a thousand emails

- to respond to, it's a lot.
- I have, like, a lot of stuff

- I have to think about today.
- Come on!

I challenge you to help me.

- Why are you laughing?
- "Challenge"?

That's... that's, like,
such a Dad tactic.

- It is.
- So, am I wrong?

I mean, this is Dad's legacy.

- Legacy?
- Yes.

All right, there... there is,
like, this video sketch idea

I've wanted to shoot
for a while, but it's like,

it's too hard to shoot
in the city.

Okay, if I help you with this,
will you help me with that?

Yeah, absolutely, yeah.

- You promise?
- Yes, I promise.

Okay, 'cause you can't
back out on a promise.

I'm not gonna
back out on a promise.

- Okay.
- Have fun, you two.

She's got, like,
a lot of important work to do.

- Mm-hm.
- I do, do you wanna respond

to all of these,
can you, could you even?

I don't know,
you're so tired all the time.

So, does this look okay?

Uh, it looks flattering to me.

Okay, should I hit "Record,"
or...?

Um, give me one second.

Uh.

Okay, well what's this
new tomfoolery?

Sometimes when
my heart rate gets going,

uh, I pass out,
it used to happen during sports,

and when I would play
with my band,

I'd get nervous,
but if I stood on my head,

I would redirect the blood.

Okay, that's super normal.

I mean, listen, man,
I really thought

you sounded good.

Yeah, I generally like things

to be perfect, you know?

Yeah, well.

Yeah, that...
that doesn't really exist.

Besides, I mean, a disaster

would get you
more attention on the internet

than something good.

Thanks.

Okay.

Uh, 'kay.

Should I just...
are you gonna tell...?

One sec.

Okay, I got an idea,
why don't I just

hit "Record" now,
and you just start now?

Go.

No, Max, that was,

Seriously, that... that...

I'm like... you kinda
blew me away there.

Okay, now it's my turn.

Cool.

What are we doing?

I know I promised,
but couldn't you just

add in the shots
afterwards digitally?

No, what I'm trying to do here

is a live, first-person
zombie shooter game.

Okay, if I did it digitally,
then it's just a video game.

Why do I have to do
the painful part?

- This is your idea.
- Uh, precisely,

because it's my idea,

- and you promised.
- Oh, come on.

Yeah, that's the spirit.

Oh, this looks so good.

Get into it, come at me, bro!

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, ahh!

Stop, ow, ow, stop, stop!

Stop, stop!

God, oh, God!

That really hurt!

- Ugh!
- You all right?

I think it's worth it,
I think it is

definitely worth it.

Wait a second,
what does this have to do

with the Sloth Fund?

Right, uh, oop, hold on.

Kill zombies, not sloths.

I need ice.

Ice, ice, baby.

- God.
- Oh, I got it, thank you.

- Mm-hm.
- You okay?

Yeah, just bruising.

Sad Max: Boring Road,
do you have more ideas?

More content, more money.

Let's just come up with
more stuff for tomorrow.

- I gotta get some work done.
- Boring.

- My job's gonna kill me.
- Boring, boring, boring.

Sorry, sorry, sorry.

Can I ask you a question?

Yes.

So, you are obviously
under zero obligation

to help with the Sloth Fund,
or, you know, anything.

Yeah, I'm a free agent.

Exactly, having said that,

it would be super helpful
if you could post something,

or even just, like,
hashtag something,

'cause you have
such a big online following.

Listen, I know Barney has some
issues with what I do, but...

- I do.
- That's 'cause you're jealous.

- Obviously.
- Do I look like I'm jealous?

- Yeah.
- Yeah.

Look, I worked really hard
to create my brand

and build my following.

I'm not just giving it away.

It's like if you went to a party

and you met a dermatologist...

I did meet a dermatologist
at a party once.

- Cool.
- What did she say?

She said that I have dermatitis.

- Well, you do.
- I know.

But, like, you wouldn't
just casually ask her

to remove something
from your face, right?

I mean,
that's that person's job.

- You get what I'm saying.
- I do.

- Yeah, okay, cool.
- I get that.

- Sorry, yeah.
- Yeah.

- I respect that completely.
- Cool. Thank you.

- Sure.
- Yeah.

That song you were playing,
though, that was good.

- Thank you.
- It was.

- Thanks, guys.
- Really good.

You said there were
more instruments

- in the basement, right?
- You said you had to work.

I do, I'm going to.

You guys, you gotta
come check this out!

- What?
- Downstairs, come here!

We've been summoned.

- Max?
- Over here!

Max?

What is this?

Whoa, Dad was
collecting paintings?

He wasn't collecting paintings.

These are his paintings,
he made these paintings.

- Really?
- Yes.

- How do you know?
- They're all signed by him.

- This is crazy.
- There are dozens in here,

and there are stacks more
in the boiler room.

No way.

This is actually pretty good.

- Did you know?
- No, no.

- Barney, did you know?
- No, of course I didn't know,

I didn't know he was capable
of anything like this.

You guys,
let's get these out of here.

See 'em in the light.

God, it's so crazy
how there's, like,

oils, acrylic,
abstract, realism.

It's like he was

exploring every medium.

Yeah, but he hid this
whole part of his life from us.

I know.

I'm gonna go explore some more
of that life downstairs.

You think things would've
been different if we knew

Dad was a painter?

Would you have
stopped playing music?

I actually don't even
really remember

why you stopped.

It kinda had to do with
Dad actually.

Really?

Everything with him
was a negotiation, you know?

It's not like he minded me
being into music at school,

like playing trumpet and piano,

but when I started my own band,

he said it was a waste of time.

This one summer,

he set me up with this
internship at a law office

that a colleague of his
worked at,

and at the same time,
I had applied

to this songwriting workshop

in Nashville.

I was pretty good, I mean,
I thought I was, like, becoming

a really good songwriter,
and I loved it.

And so, I applied and I got in,

but it conflicted
with the internship,

and I couldn't negotiate
through that,

so I just... I didn't go.

Yeah, but Dad used to
say that stuff to me

about negotiating one for one,

but I would just push back,

and we always worked it out.

This was around the same time

that Mom died,

and I just

didn't feel like I could
negotiate with Dad anymore.

I couldn't challenge him.

He was so... he was so unhappy,

and so I just felt like
I had to be responsible to him,

and that was that.

Hey, are you up?

Can I ask you a question?

Shoot.

Did you know my dad
made all those paintings?

Why didn't he
show them to anybody?

Uh, probably because

he was afraid he sucked.

Or do you think it was
because he thought

it wasn't what he was supposed
to be doing with his time?

I mean, that's kinda
the same thing, you know?

- Did you know him well?
- Yeah, I mean,

he came into the, uh,
habitat every now and then.

He painted a nude of me once.

- A nude?
- Yep.

I guess I always thought
he did things for a reason,

like, he was hard on me
'cause he was trying

to teach me something.

He thought money
solved most problems.

You're trying to save me
with money, aren't you?

Yeah, but, I mean, how else?

Did you ever hear the story
of the umbrella

born on a planet without rain?

No.

I'm sorry, am I supposed to
guess what that's about,

or are you gonna tell me?
I can never tell.

It's like, you think
you're not meant for this world.

Like, if you take up
too much space,

you'll hurt people.

I got two words for ya,
you ready?

Go big,

but for now, just focus
on the first part.

- The first part?
- Go!

Why do you keep on waking me up
in the middle of the night?

- What's that all about?
- Oh, right, sorry, sorry.

Good talk.

Yes, I know, I thought

I'd have something for you.

No, well, what happened was
I got hit by a bug.

I mean,
just totally knocked me out.

Um, but here's the thing,

tell Thomas... tell Thomas
that I will have

something for him

by, uh... by tomorrow morning

the absolute latest, okay?

Yes, thank you, it's all on me.

Okay, I really appreciate that.

Take care.

- Hey, sorry.
- All right, Mr. One Man Band.

Do you wanna do, like,
a headstand or anything, or...?

Um, no.

Okay.

All right,
I'm hitting "Record."

Okay.

Dreadfully nice weather
we're having, my dear.

My dear?

Are you hard of hearing?

Apologies, good sir.

Why, you were speaking
to my texting hat.

Your texting hat?

I can text,

but it looks like
I'm attending to you!

- But it is an artifice!
- Indeedily-doo!

I proclaim it is
the very epitome

of scandalous behavior.

Nonsense.

The only real scandal
is letting a species die!

Of what species do you speak?

Why, the North American
sloth, of course.

Donate to the fund,
and donate big!

Hit it!

Cut!

Awesome.

You really think so?

Yeah, that was great.

Was it, 'cause it's like
when you, you know...

- looks like the face.
- You're overthinking it.

- Yeah? All right.
- It was great.

How do you think
the fundraiser's doin'?

I think it's got some traction,
I don't know.

I don't really know
what to expect, you know.

- Hey, idiots!
- Hey!

- Uh, only he responded to that.
- You guys look good.

So, listen, I reached out
to some of my people,

and I think I got us a sponsor,

- a bar opening.
- Mm!

- That's amazing!
- Yeah,

but we have to get it
all together pretty fast.

They said they'd
give us $2,500

if I post a video
with our exact specifications

and it gets 10,000 views
before tomorrow,

which it totally will.

That's great,
that is not an

- insignificant amount of money.
- That's huge!

I could tell this
is important to you.

- It is, thank you.
- Yeah.

So, should we do this?

- Let's do it!
- Yeah, let's do it!

- Still don't quite get it.
- Get what?

So this is an ad
for this new club,

- and also juice?
- I believe it's called

- cross-promotion.
- Yes, I understand,

but let me be more specific.

Why are we promoting
these two products

at the same time, like,

what are they trying to get kids
to go clubbing in New York?

I would drink juice at a club.

Yeah, of course you would.

What does that mean?

- Well, it's ju... I mean...
- Guys, guys,

the point is that
both of these products

activate the pleasure
center of the brain.

You want the both more by virtue
of them being coupled together.

There's been a ton
of studies on this.

Okay, let's get ready
to go for tonight.

I don't know how to influence.

- Don't sell yourself short.
- It's right here.

Okay, will you put
the light back there,

and then we're gonna
put one over here.

Put what where,
and then who?

- Seriously?
- Okay.

But don't put
that in a wet spot!

- I don't know what...
- I don't want it to get wet,

- so just...
- How do I know what's wet

- and what's dry?
- Just look down!

- Is there water there?
- It's all green!

Yeah, but you can tell
if there's wet grass.

Rabbit noise,

Hi, Vanessa.

Yes... No, no, no, it's fine.

I know, I know.

I apologize, I honestly,

I thought I would have something
for you by now as well.

Um...

No, no, no, no, no, that's,
I don't think that's necessary.

Hey, I gotta say, you know,
with all my bellyaching,

this juice is
actually pretty good!

Oh, my God, I told you that
like a million times.

Why do you never listen to me?

Because you have a lot
of bad things to say.

- That is so rude, I do not.
- Well,

hold on, pump the brakes here.

I do have to say

I'm very impressed
with that camera work.

Thank you!

- I'm sorry...
- That was so nice of you.

...that I dump on
your stuff all the time.

- I'm sorry too.
- For what?

That you dump
on my stuff all the time.

Boom, got you!

- I'm not sorry for nothin'!
- You're a sassy unicorn!

- Yes you are!
- That's right, do you see that?

I've, honestly, I've just been

a little wrapped up in a,
like, a family obligation

to be honest, and...

No, no, no, no, no, no, that's...

Mm-hmm.

Uh-huh.

Okay.

I understand.

Okay.

Sure, so... Mm-hmm.

Okay.

Good night.

What do you think is
actually in this juice?

Probably a healthy combination

of what's ever inside of those
fluorescent sticks there.

Fluorescent sticks?
These are called glow sticks.

- They... I didn't...
- How do you not know that?

- Oh, my God.
- I really love these.

Like, I wanna kind
of wear them...

- Of course you do.
- Hi!

What's goin' on?

Uh, work just took me
off my main client,

told me I shouldn't
come in for a little bit.

- Whoa!
- What does that even mean?

Um, it means I get
a mini forced vacation,

- which is fine.
- All right.

I hate that job, also.

So, that's all the stuff.

Um, also, the videos
are getting more hits,

- and we got some more donations.
- Really?

- Yes.
- No way!

- That's great.
- Whoa, I mean, these are all

reasons to celebrate...

- Yes, absolutely.
- ...I would say, right?

- Okay.
- Are we gonna celebrate?

- Yeah!
- Okay!

- Cheers, brothers.
- Cheers.

The North American sloth
is a sub-species of sloth

that lives in North America

whose ranks have been
decimated by modernity.

If this fund closes,
I mean, if the fund closes,

uh, I mean, you know,

it goes back into public land...

- Didn't we already do this?
- ...all the sloths are gone.

- Sloth Fund, Sloth Fund.
- Barney.

It's hard to say.

- Didn't we already do this?
- Hey, hi, hello!

Didn't you hear?

Your dad wrote you letters

to show you how much he cared.

Oh, cool.

"My son,

if I failed you at all,

it's in not having
let you know specifically

how I feel about you.

There was no room you entered
that didn't get brighter

for your presence.

Your sense of elan..."

I love, I love that...
"your sense of elan,

the creative impulses
you channeled,

your whimsical spirit,

all of these were the truest
sources of joy for me.

Put quite simply,

you know how to live,

and that, to the degree
that I molded you,

is my greatest success as a man.

Follow your dreams, my son,

dreams ensconced in my love.

Yours truly, your father."

- Wow!
- Isn't that amazing?

- That's amazing.
- Yeah, anyway, uh,

let me get to yours,
Maxwell, here we go.

- Okay.
- Oh.

- So, Maxwell...
- I'm Barney.

- No, I'm Maxwell.
- You're...

Oh, my God, is that true?

That one was for you.

- This one's actually for you.
- Oh, that's...

- You're Maxwell?
- No, I'm Barney.

Barney, that's yours.

This is yours, I really am

- sorry about that.
- That was amazing!

- Is that cool? We good?
- Oh, no, that's great!

- I love that, okay.
- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Oh, this is... Ready?

"Max, see to my estate.

Your brother
cannot be depended on

in that regard."

I actually think I was supposed
to read these privately.

- Is there...
- Is all that had on it?

There... That's it,
I mean, there's not even

- a sticky, or anything.
- Oh, no!

You listen to me.

You want to fail me
and fail your father

and destroy his legacy?

- Is that what you want?
- No, no, no, of course not!

Then I challenge you.

- You should go big!
- Yes!

Yes, I'm gonna go big.

You aren't trying hard enough,
Maxwell.

I never really remember

the words after that,
what is it?

Get off your butt

- Ugh, so close!
- Ugh!

- Ugh!
- Ugh! Ewie, ewie, gooey!

Hey, hey, hey, hey,
family meeting real quick.

It's family game time.

- Yeah.
- This is important.

Really quick, really quick.

Max, will you just
come relax with us?

I'm leaving in
a couple days, please?

Hear me out, okay,
if we hit this mark, right,

if we raise this money,

we're just gonna have to raise
the same amount next month.

This is taking
way too much time.

We can't keep doing it
in this piecemeal fashion.

That's why I think we
should make one big splash

and make a huge sum of money.

We should have a party.

- I like a party.
- And that party

will be a fundraising banquet.

- Oh!
- Whoa.

Wait, dude, that is not,
that's not a party.

- No, listen...
- It's a total...

...we don't have the house
for that much longer.

Let's just spend some
quality time together.

I think it would be
really good for you.

No, but that's my point!

What better way to leave
this house and honor it

than by saving
this fund for Dad.

I feel like you're
losing your mind.

I'm not losing my mind.

I feel totally fine.

I've done a lot of stuff
for this family in my life,

and that's on me,
that was my choice.

That's fine,
but I am asking you two

to do this one thing for me
this one time.

It'll be less than
24 hours of our lives.

Succeed or fail,

I'll never ask
anything of you again.

Max.

I will do all the heavy lifting.

Please, please, please,
just say yes?

Okay!

- Fine, yeah, fine.
- Fine!

- Fine, we'll do it.
- Thank you, thank you.

I really appreciate it.

This is great.

I'm gonna email you
a spreadsheet detailing

everybody's responsibilities.

Awesome!

Spreadsheet?

Oh, no!

So in the morning,
you can help me

attach the drone
to the livestream, yeah?

That is fantastic,
thank you so much.

All right, great!

We'll touch base then.

Good night.

- Hi!
- Hey.

- Can I ask you a question?
- Yeah.

Do you feel like there's
anything I can do to

talk you out of
having this event?

- No.
- No.

I could definitely
still use your help, though.

Uh, trying to help you is all
Barney and I have been doing!

Great.

Great.

Get some sleep.

You too.

Night.

Good night.

Okay, I know today's
gonna be crazy,

but before we get started,
I just wanna say thank you

for your time
and your attention.

Is this a TED Talk?

If there's anything I've learned

from working on teams
in crunch time,

it's that we really say
yes to each other.

Say someone has an idea,
we wanna see how far it can go,

just say yes.

Say, for example...

Someone needs to
take a bathroom break.

Are you asking?

Yes.

How 'bout in just a bit?

Okay, 'cause that sounds
like a no, I think.

It's a yes to going later.

Oh, okay, so it's a yes to
no bathroom break?

It's a yes to
respecting everyone's time...

Eh, I'm pretty sure
that was a no.

- Don't you think so?
- Yeah.

I think, uh, we've decided
that is a no.

It's a yes to being
a team player.

- How 'bout that?
- Okay, well, how about

you say yes to my butt?

Okay, I'm gonna say
yes to leaving.

- Hey, and I'll say yes to that!
- This is crazy.

Please, please!

Please, please, stay.

Sorry.

I'm just feeling
a little stressed out.

Can we please just
go get the tables,

bring them back here
and start setting up

for everything?

Please?

Fine, fine, let's just... Come on.

- I'll give you a maybe.
- All right.

Oh, my God,
there's so many, okay.

I guess just...

Ugh.

It's hot.

Wait, no, no, no,
no, no, no,

no, no, no, no,
don't set it up here.

Let's bring it to
where it's gonna be,

and then set it up there, okay?

There's no point
in setting it up here.

Are you gonna be
like this all day?

Yes.

Ha!

Get it? Instead of saying no?

All right, can we just
move the table, please?

Thank you.

Sorry, can you guys
move a little faster?

We're mov... You want us
to run with a table?

- Okay, fine, fine, sorry.
- Jeez!

Swing around so it's
set up this way.

Oh, he's setting them
all in a line.

Can you move fast... Can you do it
a little faster, though,

'cause I feel like you're...

I'm not trying to be a jerk.

I just think if people show up,

and we're not ready,
it's catastrophic.

Then we get zero money,
I mean, who would show up

- to a fundraiser...
- We're gonna be ready.

We have the whole day!

I think these are
a little close together,

like, you know,
I don't think that, um...

Maybe we could
put swivel chairs,

and they could
sort of go in-between.

That's fine, guys,
I got this one.

I don't need help.

I'll just open it up right here.

I'll get one faster than you,

look at that, look at my hustle.

- Look how fast I'm going.
- Look at me not wasting time

- by not arguing!
- I'm not wasting time!

You just said I was
wasting time by arguing,

- and now I...
- Oh, my God, okay.

Let's just take a breath.

Let's just
take a breath.

And we'll...

Go, go, go, go, go,
go, go, go, go, go, go!

It's so hot!

Do you think people
are gonna wanna

sit in the sun
like this, though,

'cause it's really
hot over here.

But by the time they get here,

the sun'll be further down.

Is that how it works?

I'm sorry I get angry,
I am, I really am...

- Oh?
- ...but also you're prov...

you're intentionally
provoking me,

you're trying to get me angry,

and then when I do,
you say it's a problem.

What is he doing?

- He's like a drill sergeant.
- Ugh.

Maybe he should have
gone into the military.

- Look at that, oh, man...
- Dude!

- ...I wish I had my camera.
- Are you serious?

It's weight bearing!

- Look at that!
- I know you wanna have fun,

- I do, I get that, I get that!
- Just admit that I'm sexy!

Stop it, just stop!

Like, it's like you're
tryin' to drive me crazy.

I get that you wanna have fun,
but it is not fun for me

to worry if we're
not gonna be ready!

Will you just say that I'm sexy?

Just say it.

Maxwell!

Seriously, man, take a breath.

The veins in your forehead
are, like, popping out.

You know how many events
like this I've done?

It's gonna be totally fine.

I got this, we got this.

I just...

I know, I hear my own voice,
and I don't like it,

and I'm sorry,
but I just like...

- It's okay!
- I don't know what to do.

I just need to, like,
try to get this done.

- No, I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
- It's okay.

- We're gonna get it done.
- I know you're just

trying to have fun,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry.

- I wanna have fun, I do, I...
- It's gonna be a long day.

We just wanted it
to be easy and breezy.

Why don't you get some water.

We're gonna set up
the rest of the tables.

When you come out,
it's gonna be done.

It's gonna feel really
good and refreshing.

- You sure?
- Yeah, totally.

Go, seriously.

- Thank you.
- Barney.

- You are sexy.
- You are!

You are, we saw your muscles

when you were
carrying those tables.

- It's exciting...
- Thanks important to me.

- ...for you.
- Thank you.

- I'll take this.
- All right.

All right, we got it, we got it.

- Drink, like, a lot of water.
- Thanks, guys.

Do you really think he's gonna
make this happen tonight?

I don't know.

It's a lot of money to raise.

I know, he's, like,
kinda cuckoo now.

I don't even know
if it's worth it.

Well, it is for a sloth.

I'm sorry,
but that's unacceptable.

I ordered a certain
amount of centerpieces,

and that's how many
I expect to get.

- Oh, like here.
- No, no, no,

don't put me on hold,

just tell me I'm going
to get what I ordered.

It's simple.

No, you can see my head,

- did you get some?
- Hey, what is this?

They're bunnies.

Bunnies? We're doing
a fundraiser for sloths.

How, how do you make a sloth?

You can just fold
the napkins in half.

- To make a sloth?
- That doesn't make sense.

- Good, wonderful, thank you.
- I think these are adorable.

- These are amazing.
- They're so great.

Wait, take a picture.

Yes.

Okay, I look forward to that.

Thank you very much,
take care.

- They're really good.
- Down here.

- Put 'em here?
- Yeah.

Okay, take a picture like that.

- Okay, from the top.
- No, no, no, we don't have time.

Can we just do that
end part, please?

- Yes, sir!
- All right.

And, action.

- Barney!
- What?

- Gotta turn the camera on.
- All right.

- I'm gonna say it, okay?
- Please, just let her do this?

All right, proceed.

- We good?
- Give me a second,

it's just warmin' up.

Are we good? I'm sorry.

Do you want it
to look good, or no?

I want it to look good,
but I want it to look good...

We have to post this in time...

It's gonna take three seconds.

All right, okay, sorry, go.

- You ready?
- Yes.

Action!

As the chairman of the North
American Slouth Foundat...

- Okay, we're still...
- Slouth Found...

- I know I said slouth!
- Still rolling.

Just take it again.

As the chairman of the North
American Slouth Foundation...

It's not slouth!

- It is sloth!
- All right,

don't beat yourself up!

- This is show biz.
- Okay, guys,

we're still rolling.

- Take a breath.
- Just take it again.

Okay.

As the chairman of the North
American Sloth Foundation,

I urge you to tune
into the livestream

at 8:00 Eastern and to give big,

an entire species is at stake.

Thank you.

Cut! Great, got it!

Okay, edit and post.

- Please?
- Please.

Yes, thank you, all of that.

Um, now I think you guys
should just change.

Just change,
I'll go get the catering.

- Yah? Great.
- Yeah.

and it will broadcast
the entire fundraiser

- from the sky.
- No way!

- Whoa.
- All right, let's go live.

Ugh.

All right, y'all ready?

- Yeah.
- Ready as I'll ever be.

Here we go.

Hello, everyone, we are live

from the North American
Sloth Foundation Fundraiser,

and we are about to launch

our North American
Sloth Foundation drone.

Power up.

And three, two, one, launch.

Oh!

Okay!

I am gonna run
to the driveway

and welcome our live attendees!

- Oh, my God, stop it!
- How are you doing?

- Stop, Barney!
- I'm a sloth!

- I'm a sloth.
- You don't look anything...

- I'm a sloth!
- That's not what a sloth...

It's way slower.

- Do your paw slower.
- You guys,

should I be concerned?

There's no one here.

Like, not a single car.

- Really?
- Yeah.

I mean...

It is a little weird.

- Ooh! Did we get one?
- Oh, yeah, there's someone!

- Ooh, can I be the greeter?
- Yeah, please, please.

- Thank you.
- Yeah, but try to be like, uh,

normal.

- Hey, how ya doin'?
- Hey!

Are you here for the fundraiser?

Yeah, this the, uh,
Middletown Volleyball Awards?

Oh, no, that's not...

This is a fundraiser for
the North American sloth.

- Okay.
- Oh, can... No, wait!

- Like your job, job...
- You wanna, you wanna,

- hang out and watch the live...
- ...like, starting an

animal non-profit?

- No, uh, Sloth Fund, yeah.
- Sloth funds.

- Yeah.
- Yeah, come on in!

No, no, that's fine,
thank you though.

- I'm sorry?
- I appreciate it, thank you.

- That's a negative?
- I mean,

- who else would it be for?
- Well, that was just some

lost guy looking for
the Middletown

- Volleyball Award Ceremony.
- Are you serious?

I tried to get him to come here.

He declined.

I do not, I don't
understand what's going on!

Where is every... You gave
him your list, right?

- Yeah, of course!
- Okay, I did!

What time'd you
send out the invites?

- Um.
- Barney.

Why do you look

- guilty of some crime?
- That's just my look.

You know me, like whenever
a cashier inspects my 20s,

I'm worried I've been, like,
counterfeiting money recently.

Hold on, I'm sorry, but,

we gave you a single
responsibility.

Please tell me,

did you send out
the email invitations?

I, I thought I...

When you gave me the email,
I was looking at it,

but then I was adding all
the people I could thing of

to add to the invite list.

- We said send it!
- I, I know!

- I just forgot to... I thought...
- No! No, no!

- You cannot be serious, man!
- I just walked away from

the computer for two seconds.

I'm so sorry,
I am so sorry, Max.

It's okay.

I am so sorry.

Okay, okay, it's cool,
whatever, does not matter.

We will just do it anyway.

The livestream is on.

We will act like we're
talkin' to people instead of

empty freakin' chairs!

No, no, we're not gonna do that.

What do you mean no, what do you
mean no we're not gonna do it?

No, you are... Look at yourself,
you're losing your mind!

I mean, I think, like,
you're kind of in a...

Do you seem like in a good
state for a live stream?

- Yeah, it's, like, not...
- Oh, my God.

- Why don't we just put it off?
- No, no, listen!

This is so typical
of both of you!

Since the beginning of time,

you go off and do
whatever you want

whenever you want,
and I have to

sit around
and clean up after you,

and do everything myself.

This is ridiculous!

You missed Dad's funeral

'cause you were in
the tropics taking photos,

- and I'm self-obsessive?
- That's my job!

Oh, yeah, that's your job,
to be self-obsessive.

I get it, I'm agreeing!

And you, and you,

how many times could
I have used your help

when Dad got sick out here, huh?

You're my big brother,
yet the only time I see you

happens to coincide
when you need money!

- You know what?
- What?

You love it.

I love it? I love what, exactly?

Yeah, what would you be
without your crown of thorns,

letting everyone know
how put upon you are.

"Oh, I could be, I could be
so much further in life

- if it weren't for life itself!"
- That's what you think?

- "I'm Maxwell, I'm just...
- Sure, sure, sure, sure.

...bleeding out for everyone."

I was so psyched to
give up my social life.

I was psyched to give up
my social life, move out here,

and live with Dad
as his health declined,

while you gallivanted
all over the world

wherever you wanted,
and this man child here

- just skated from job to job.
- Maxwell,

why don't you just
stop talking and calm down

before you say something
you're gonna regret.

No, I'm not regretting this.

I should have said this
a long time ago.

Now, we are going to
do this fundraiser,

and we are gonna
raise that money!

No, we're not.

Right, right, I forgot,

nothing matters, like,
why would it matter?

I mean, Dad's death
doesn't even matter, right?

It's not even on your radar.

What did you just say?

Does Dad's death matter to you?

- Maxwell!
- No, I'm seriously asking.

Doesn't seem like it.

It seems like,
just like normal,

you're in your own little world

where all you
care about is yourself.

Of course Dad's death
matters to me.

I love Dad, I miss Dad!

And you know what?

Maybe he would still be here

if you took better care of him!

No, guys, guys!

Guys, stop, stop!

- Guys, stop, stop!
- Come here!

Stop!

Max! Barney, go, take...

Stop, seriously?

Take a breath!

Walk it off!
Walk it off!

Relax.

It's not worth it.

Yeah, right.

You're right, you're right.

I'm sorry.

None of this is worth it.

Doesn't matter.

Dad's death doesn't matter.

This banquet
doesn't matter, you know?

Let's just, let's just

shut it down.

Right?

Max!

Let's just shut it down.

- Max!
- Really?

- Really?
- Just...

- Max!
- ...shut it down!

- Let's just get rid of this all.
- Okay, all right, okay.

Gonna flip that one too?

What's the difference, huh?

- Come on, come on!
- Here we go!

- Are you serious?
- Max!

What's the difference?

- Is he having a...
- Oh, my God.

...breakdown? What?

It's been livestreaming
this whole time.

I don't even know
how to turn it off.

Here, hit that.

Hit that!

Max.

What are you doing?

I'm looking for my dead dog

- for my dead Dad.
- What?

Because I failed him
in every other way,

so at least I can do this.

Max, stop!

Stop!

Stop.

Did you see all those
paintings he made of you?

- No.
- We kept going through them,

and we found a bunch of you.

I laid 'em out
so you can see them.

Max, he loved you.

I think that Dad thought he was

protecting himself by never
showing anyone his paintings,

and I think he thought
he was protecting you

by not letting you do music,

but he was wrong,

and that's his baggage,
not yours,

but you're still
negotiating with him.

The only reason
you wrote those songs

was because it was
for Dad's Sloth Fund.

So, what happens now?

You quit again?

No, no, raising that money

was important all on its own,
okay, that was not nothing.

I know, I know, I'm,
I'm not saying, I...

I'm just saying that

Dad was your excuse
not to take the risk.

You have to stop looking to
other people for permission.

- I love you.
- I love you.

God.

I'm sorry.

- I miss him!
- I know.

I know.

- You okay?
- Yeah, yeah.

Sorry.

Thank you.

Will you please come inside?

Yeah, yeah, I will,
in a bit, okay?

Yeah.

You need to get your dreams
to stop being so smoky.

I'm sorry.

I'm so sorry.

Why?

- I failed you.
- Wrong!

You started something,
and I'm still here!

Nothing is over yet.

You made some really cool stuff

and put a ton of effort
into this project.

That's all a sloth
can ask for!

Really?

You mean that?

Yeah, the hardest
part is starting,

and you did that.

It's not gonna be
perfect immediately,

or ever, but, I mean,
it's not supposed to.

Okay.

Thank you.

Thank you!

Thumbs up!

Ugh, did you just
say "thumbs up?"

Well, yeah because I thought if
I just gave you a thumbs up,

then maybe I'd make you feel bad
because you don't have thumbs,

- and you can't do it.
- I get it.

Okay.

Goodbye.

Hey!

Barney.

Barney, look, I'm sorry.

I didn't mean any of that
stuff I said, seriously.

I'm so sorry.

Okay.

I'm just,
I'm havin' a tough time.

It's so hard for me

to let go of that dynamic
I had with Dad, you know,

even though he's gone.

Maybe especially
because he's gone.

It's like the last
remaining thing I have to

connect myself to him.

But that's not your fault.

It was totally unfair of me

to put that on you,
okay, I was wrong.

Really, man.

Thanks.

And, I hear you.

I get it, you know.

He was my best audience.

Yeah, I hear you.

I feel so embarrassed.

I let the entire fund down.

Actually,

that's what I've been watching.

What do you mean?

Well, remember how I told you

that a disaster will
get you more attention

than something good
on the internet?

Yes.

Well, a disaster plus a fight

involving the chairman
of a non-profit,

- internet gold.
- No.

Yeah, the fight,
you destroying the banquet.

It's been viewed over
half a million times.

People think you're crazy,
but I think it was worth it

because you're actually
drawing a lot of attention

to the issue now.

And, people are
calling in to ask the town

to step in and save the land.

- Really?
- Yeah!

- Oh, my God.
- Yeah, it's pretty sad,

and kinda bad, and rad,
and also I'm kinda glad!

I mean, it's not exactly
how you wanted it to go down,

but you got the job done!

- I mean, I guess that's true!
- It's crazy!

Hey, what are you doin' later?

Um, I mean,

I have to check my calendar

to give you
an official response.

Why, are you
requesting my presence?

I am, I wrote another song,

and Jenna is gonna
tape me playing it.

- What?
- Oh, um,

I don't think the fund wants to
be associated with you anymore.

Yeah, they don't want you
to play songs for them.

No, no, no, no,
I'm not talking about the fund.

There's this songwriting
workshop in Nashville

that I wanted to go to

since forever,

and I need to apply
with a song.

What? You're gonna apply for a...

It's like a musical

internship sort of thing?

Workshop.

Maxwell, that's amazing!

I mean, I just got goosebumps
'cause I'm so happy for you!

Thanks.

Yeah, of course, I mean,
I would love to be there.

I could do whatever
you need me to help,

like backup vocals,
like whatever.

That sounds great.

Maybe, maybe make a beat?

Maybe just, like,
sit silently and, like,

pretend like
you're the audience.

Totally, 100 percent.

You know, if I get in,

I'm gonna be so much older
than everybody else.

But that's okay, right, I mean,

I have to start somewhere.

Oh, dude,
that's totally cool, I mean,

that's kinda like
my crowd these days anyway,

and I think people think
I'm pretty cool.

Well, uh,

thanks, man.

I appreciate it.

Thank you.

All right.

I'll see you later, okay?

I'm gonna go practice.

- I love you.
- I love you.

- Oh, thanks.
- Beverage.

- Thank you.
- Of course.

Oh.

Oh, it looks really good.

- Do I need to, uh, shift?
- Yeah, maybe, maybe just

- move in just a little bit.
- In?

- Yeah.
- Okay.

Oh, awesome.

- Okay, you ready?
- Yes.

- All right.
- I'm ready.

Good.

- Here we go.
- All right.

Hi, my name is Maxwell Grant,

and this is a song I wrote

called
"Things I'd Like to Know."

♪ You were a deep dark forest
I couldn't see through ♪

♪ Magical and proud,
full of secrets too ♪

♪ You were a fancy banquet
without any guests ♪

♪ All alone but for
the chatter in your head ♪

♪ Here's the thing
all about it though ♪

♪ Here's the thing
that I'd like to know ♪

♪ I can't ask anybody else ♪

♪ Am I describing you

or myself? ♪

♪ You were a lion on fire
in the family room ♪

♪ Scary and loud
but pretty impressive too ♪

♪ You were
a long-distance flight

that never came down ♪

♪ I'd see you above
and be happy you were around ♪

♪ Here's the thing
all about it though ♪

♪ Here's the thing
that I'd like to know ♪

♪ If we'd fallen so outta touch,

why do I keep
missing you so much? ♪

♪ And your bones
were made from rubber bands ♪

♪ And you stretched them out
'bout as far as one can ♪

♪ And our love

is a mountain of
pennies and dimes ♪

♪ You could lose
ten thousand of them

and the mountain
would be just fine ♪

♪ Well, I've been upside down
since I came back home ♪

♪ Little bit of panic,
but I'm finally all

on my own ♪

♪ Here's the thing
all about it though ♪

♪ Here's the thing
that I can't let go ♪

♪ If we'd fallen so outta touch,

why, then,
do I miss you so much? ♪

♪ Yeah, why do I keep
missing you so... ♪

♪ So much? ♪
