Hank? Hank?

Hang on a sec.

Gotta drop this Italian racer.

What?

She's Italian.

Um, cool.

Uh, um, have you seen
my car keys?

Oh yeah.

Hank?

Yeah?

Keys?

What, the car keys?
Probably in the car.

Are you racing women?

No. Training with 'em.

You know the Iron Man race
is coming up in six months.

Besides, you're the one
who said

I should get out
and meet someone.

Yeah, in public.

Here we go.

Ciao Bella!

Vediamo, or something.

[door creaks open]

[car sputters]

Come on.

Dammit.

[peaceful music]

[Girl] Mom, what is he doing?

-Hey!
-Hey.

What? You go for a run?

Uh, yeah, yeah,
you could say that.

What'd you got there?

Uh, the water bill, yeah.
I'll take care of it.

I got it.

[crashes]

Yeah, that's good there.

Hey, Hank, uh, you know how much
longer are you gonna wear that?

Just till the cheques
stop comin'.

Right.

Yeah, it's just we're home now,
you know?

Nobody's gonna see ya.

The only people that come
over here are Cliff and Linda.

I feel like it's unnecessary.

Don't you underestimate those
insurance surveillance guys.

I wouldn't be surprised if one
of them sneaky bastards

is peaking through
the window right now.

You know, Hank,

I think you're taking this
a little bit too far.

Mike, Mike, Mike, Mike,
Mike, Mike, Mike.

I've told ya, if we lived in
a fair and just society

I wouldn't have to carry on
this charade.

Right.

Nobody appreciated the 20 years
of back-breaking work

that I endured at the mill.

So no, I don't think that
I am taking this... too far.

Ok. Yeah, well, you know...
You know best, so.

Still feel like you're taking it
too far, but...

[knock at door]

[knocking]

I see you've unpacked.

Yeah. Getting there.

I was gonna make
some lunch.

Ham and cheese ok?

Yeah, that's fine. Thanks.

[doorbell]

We're happy you're here.

I don't get how this
keeps happening.

Yeah, you and me both.

All right.

[car sputters]

Nice.

Hey Mike,
how's your father?

Haven't seen him
for a while.

And how's his, uh,
you know...

What?

Oh, yeah, um, yeah,
you know, he's fine.

Um, hoping that he,
you know,

gets back on his feet
sooner rather than later.

Uh, so, um, I hear that
your granddaughter's

living with you guys
right now.

Linda told me.

Yeah, Wallace,
she's great.

Like to meet her?

Uh, nah. I'll just...

Wallace!

Oh, all right.

Wallace! Wallace!

Wallace, this is our next door
neighbour, Mike.

Nice to meet ya.

You too.

Uh, I, I hear that
you just moved in.

Yeah.

Still unpacking.

Uh-huh.

You know, come Monday,

it's Wallace's first day
at Pen High.

Why don't you give her a ride

and show her the ropes,
you know?

What do you say?

Uh, yeah. Ok.

Cool, yeah. I leave at 7:45.
Does that work?

See you Monday.

Ok, yeah, I'll see ya...

[door slams]

I'll see ya on Monday.

Why don't you get rid
of this piece of shit?

That's my car.

Yeah. Piece of shit.

It's a Gremlin!

Hey.

Hey, hey.

Who, who's that girl?

Uh, their granddaughter.

Let's keep an eye on her.
She could be a plant.

What are you talking about?
She just moved in.

[snaps]
Exactly.

Ok.

You remember, if
she asks about me..

Yeah, yeah, I'll, I will
let you know.

Granddaughter.

Hm.

[Mike] So, uh, how are you
liking Canada so far?

[Wallace] It's nice.

A bit of a change,
but I'll get used to it.

[Mike] Where are you from
in the States?

[Wallace] New England.

[Mike] Oh, big apple. Nice.

[Wallace] Uh, yeah.
Pretty big change.

Never lived in a small town
like this.

[Mike] Yeah, well don't
expect much.

It's one of those places where
if you don't try to leave

you're gonna get stuck here.

[car sputtering]

Check this out.

Eh?

What the heck?

What a dick.

Mike?

[Wallace] Mike...
[snaps fingers]

[car horn]

I think we need to find
a new parking spot.

[Ms. LeBlanc] All right class,

today we are going to be
discussing the physics of...

Flight.

The physics of flight.

More specifically,
looking at the equations

behind the Bernoulli Principle.

So, how come planes
can fly upside down?

[Ms. LeBlanc] Air pressure
across the wing...

Do you have something to add,
Monsieur Drinkwater?

Yeah. Uh, I was just wondering
if you could potentially

clarify the role played by the
angle of the attack of the wing

and the interplay
between thrust, drag

and downward air deflection?

It just seems like that
should be covered.

[class laughing]

As I was saying,
the Bernoulli Principle-

How do you know all this?

[whispers] Hank was really into
planes for about a month.

So we talked a lot about it,

we learned a lot about
the physics...

Um, allo?

Would you like to share your
conversation with the class?

Uh... not really.

I was just wondering why planes
can fly upside down,

because, you know, it's kind
of common knowledge

that the Bernoulli Principle

doesn't really fully
explain flight

and I just feel like, you don't
really have any idea, you know,

what you're talking about.

[class laughs]

Are you trying to get smart
with me, hm?

Uh... no.

It sounds like
you're questioning

the legitimacy of my lectures.

Yeah.

Yeah, I am.

Go see Principal Fraser.

Ok, yup.

[tapping on desk]

[Hank] I know where it is.

[Secretary] Have a nice day.

Well, this had better be good.

[crash]

To scoot all the way
over here

and they're tearing up
the sidewalk there

on Windsor Street.

Super bumpy.

Nice to see you again,
Mr. Drinkwater.

No, no, no, don't butter me up.
Now why am I here?

Your son had a bit of an
altercation in class today.

What's "a bit"
of an altercation?

You either have one
or you don't.

Well, whatever you want
to call it,

it was the usual,
challenging his teachers

and being generally insulting
towards them.

Ok, I didn't mean to be...

And don't, don't interrupt

when we're talking about
your altercations.

As I was saying,
according to Ms. LeBlanc,

he was challenging
her teaching methods

and referred to her
as "stupid".

Ok, no, I didn't call
her stupid.

I called her reliance
on the Bernoulli equation

to explain lift stupid.

Oh, come on.

They're not still teaching that?

Surely she explained the...
the ratio

between the angle of attack and
the aspect ratio of the wing.

No, that's exactly
what I was trying to say.

She wasn't saying any of that.

She didn't know what
she was talking about.

She was going on and on...

Wow.

What has happened to
the education system

in this country?

If we could just calm down,
please.

I think it would be best
for Michael to just

listen to his teachers
and show some respect.

His teachers.

Oh, oh, cue the choir.

Oh, here we go again.

You want all these kids
to conform to some,

to some socialist agenda
that stifles creativity

and turns them all
into mindless robots.

And you get paid a pretty
penny for it, I might add.

Oh, you people.

You think it's your God-given
right to rip off the government.

Well, as a hard working
Canadian taxpayer,

I have had it up to here.

I'm not going to sit here

and watch the intellectual
and creative life of my son

get sucked out his ass

by a bunch of entitled
educators.

Come on, lad.

Don't let these brainwashed
ass...

freeloaders get
under your skin.

[Hank] Freeloaders!

-Uh, do... Should I?
-Yep.

Ok.

Oh, hold on.

-Should I close it.
-Yes.

-Close it or open it?
-Close the door.

I'm gonna close this.

[sighs]

[whispers] Oh my,
oh my, oh my.

Fucking Drinkwaters.

[P.A.] Attention shoppers,
remember...

[honks]

No, no, no. No, no.
Get the, get the chocolate milk.

Hank, I thought you were
lactose intolerant.

I know, I know.
I'm working on my tolerance.

All right, well I don't think
that's a good idea.

I think we should go with
the kefir or nothing at all.

I hardly call that the Sophie's
Choice of chocolate milk.

All right. We're going
with the kefir.

Ok, so what else do we need?

We got bacon, eggs,
Dunkaroos.

Uh, must have lost the list.

My sports hydration powder
was on there.

I need that to balance my...

That's not in the budget.

Well, if I can avoid another
hammy cramp while training,

we can afford it.

Hey, um, you know Hank,

since we're talking
about money and stuff.

I applied to a couple
universities.

Just, you know, 'cause
there were deadlines.

And I was sort of wondering
about our financial situation,

whether we had anything
kind of socked away or...

You're still thinking
about university?

Well, yeah, you know I don't
want to get stuck here.

You don't want to spend
the best years of your life

stuck in a classroom either.

Right.

Well, what would I even
do here?

Get a job.

You could live in the house
with me for free.

Well, not, not free, you know,
you gotta pay a little rent.

So that's a no then
on the money.

There's nothing,
nothing socked away?

That's a big no?

Your mom took most of it
when she left

and not, not took,
I gave it to her.

You know, she wanted
this new life...

Hank, though that was
five years ago.

And let me guess,

you spent the rest of
your money on stupid shit?

I did not!

Not most of it.

You know, I still send her some,
here and there.

It's hard to save.

Why don't you just take off
your neck brace,

stop faking it,
and go back to work,

that way we'd actually
have some money.

[chuckles]

I'm in too deep.

You're telling me.

Butterscotch. Nice.

[Cliff] Fifteen for two?
Fifteen for four.

Fifteen for six.

Three of a kind.
Twelve.

[sighs]

Who threw the five
in there?

That's an easy count.

-Cliff.
-Huh?

What? What?

She's bored.

She's not bored.

I'm a little bored, Grandpa.

Back in the days when
your mom and I...

[sighs]

[phone vibrates]

Oh, she got herself
a distraction device.

We have a Jetson
over here, eh?

Jetson? How old are you?

How old are you?

Excuse me.

Tell em you're getting hosed
over here!

Cliff.

What?

Hello.

[Mike] Hey, Wallace?

Hey. What's up, dude?

[Mike] It's Mike.
Mike Drinkwater.

Your neighbour?

Yeah, I know who you are.

[Mike] Right. Right.
Um... so, are you busy later?

Not at all.

So, um...
[clears throat]

What are we...
what are we doing here?

Uh, I like the scenery.

It's a hockey rink.

Yeah.

Oh, the girl from the truck.

Uh, who, Danny?

Yeah, I think she figure skates
here, or something.

[Wallace] Are you stalking here?

[Mike] What?
No. No.

Stalking's what crazy
people do.

No, no, no.
I'm not stalking.

I'm, I'm... more just seeing her
at a higher rate

than what would be considered
statistically random.

What?

What?

It's not stalking.
It's not stalking.

Ok, it's like a gentle stalking.

It's like a, like a soft,
it's like a soft stalk, kind of.

It's more like a mathematically
derived meeting technique

where I increase the likelihood
of having positive

social interactions by subtly
rearranging my schedule

so that I'm in close proximity

to the person of interest
without being too obvious.

Which, as I'm saying right now,
does sound like stalking.

Which is a bummer.

It's actually a lot of work.

Time tables and maps.

[Wallace] She has a boyfriend.

The douche in the truck.

Yeah, well, you know.
Nothing lasts forever.

You should make friends
with her.

What, make friends with Danny?
Are you kidding me?

Look at her,
she's a total babe.

She's got babe-itis.

I can't get near her,
I mean, she's...

Number one, she's president
of the student council.

She's in like six
different clubs.

She's super popular,
she gets straight As.

You know, girls like that don't,
don't talk to guys like me.

Maybe you should join
student council?

You know, get to know her,
stop doing whatever this is.

Student council?

I don't know, isn't that
a little bit weird?

And stalking is what,
normal?

Ok. I see your point.

It's a good point.

I'll take it
into consideration.

This place is kind of
a big deal in Canada.

Feels like a Dunkin'.

This is not a Dunkin'.

Hi.

[Cashier] Ok, dear.
That'll be $9.44.

Also, I'm a member.

Oh, dammit.

-One sec.
-Ok.

Can you hold that?

Did you see it?

[Mike] Dammit.

-Just one sec.
-Ok.

[Mike] Oh, man. It's really
down there.

Um, do you want some help?

Oh, I think I got it.

Ok.

[struggling] Oh, I'm close.
I think I got it.

I lost it.

Oh, look, a loonie.

Um... Do you want me
to pull forward?

Oh, I got some good leverage.
One sec.

Maybe I could look
on my side.

My foot's caught in the wheel.
[horn honking]

Ok.

-Oh, I got it.
-Ok.

[Mike] I can't get it.

No? Ok.

[Mike] Can you help?

So... is this one of
your moments?

Yeah, I guess it is.

[cars honking]

[horn honking]

[Customer] Come on!
Let's move it!

Woo. Oh, nice.

Great service.

Thanks.

Ok. Well, I'll see you tomorrow.

-Ok.
-Ok.

-Bye.
-Bye.

Hey, you having a good time
with Mike?

Yeah, he has his moments.

[Chuckles] Wally? Um... how
is everything?

I mean, you know,
how are you doing?

I'm fine, Grandma.

You don't need
to keep asking.

[sighs]

Uh, hi. Is this
the student council?

Uh, yeah.

Ok. Is it too late
to sign up?

Sign-ups were months ago.

For the student council?

So, yeah, it is too late
to sign up.

Ok. Uh, whom...
whom do you report to?

I would like to speak
on this matter with them.

Danny's the president.

Be my guest.

Ok.

Ok.

Oh, hey.

Hi, Madam President,

I am interested
in becoming involved

with and around
the student council.

Oh, really?
Why is that?

Well, uh, you know, uh,
politics are cool

and I've been to counseling.

Look, I don't...

Uh, please, please can I be in
the council with you please?

Actually, Althea was supposed
to be working with Patrick

on the dance committee,

but he came down with a really
bad case of bowel polyp

so, um, she could use some help
planning the fall ball.

No, I don't.

Yes, you do.

Fine.

Ok. Cool.

Uh, so when is, when will be
the subsequent...

the next meeting?

Tuesdays and Thursdays,
during lunch.

Great. That's what I thought.

Ok. Thank you very much,
Madam President.

[hopeful music]

[dramatic music]

[grunts]

[crash]

Holy mackerel.

Well, you're getting better.

You know sarcasm is
for the weak, Hank.

Is that a Bruce Lee quote?

No. "Be water".
That is a Bruce Lee quote.

What kind of advice is that?

Hey, I think, I think I'm gonna
take Wallace to the Vees game.

Who's Wallace?

Uh, Cliff's granddaughter.
From next door.

I thought it was just
gonna be a boys night?

Every night is a boys night.

You know, actually, sorry,

most nights you're just
working on Hank's world.

Yeah, well you would too if
your world was being overrun

with killer sharks
and dinosaurs.

Oh, hey, hey.
Speaking of hockey.

This arrived,
not two hours ago.

Have a gander at that bad boy.

You kidding me?

It's pretty cool, eh?

Hank, when I said
not to buy stupid shit,

this is stupid shit!

-Stupid shit?
-Yeah.

-This is not stupid shit.
-This is stupid shit!

You have no respect
for tradition.

Put her in the fridge.

I thought I raised you right.

So?

Do you love it?

Absolutely, yeah.

I hear shoulder pads
are coming back.

It was mine
when I was young.

Your mother even wore it
to her prom.

Even though she fought
like hell not to.

I would fight like hell
if I had to wear that.

Thanks, Grandma.

[phone vibrates]

Hello.

[Mike] Hey, Wallace, it's Mike
Drinkwater, your neighbour?

Dude, you drive me to school
every morning.

[Mike] Oh, right.

-Listen, you want to go to...
-I'd love to.

[footsteps approaching]

Are you ready for tonight?

Yes, sir.

Should be a good game.

I expect Vernon's coach to match
you with the top D man.

Yeah, I think I'm gonna be ok.

Woah, don't get cocky.

Hey, you need to bring
your A game tonight.

You got a lot of eyes
on you now.

Yeah, I know that.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

Yeah, I don't know if you do.

There's handfuls of scouts
at these games.

You have opportunity now, son.
But your young, dumb.

And opportunity doesn't stick,
do you understand?

It's slippery.

You gotta grab it when
you have the chance.

You have to appreciate how
much I've invested in you.

And you need to give me a good
return on that investment.

Yes, sir. Got it.

What's our goal?

Division 1 American College
hockey scholarship.

What's our goal?!

Full ride, D1 scholarship,
NHL draft.

Good.

Good luck tonight.

I thought you didn't believe
in luck.

Ah, bad luck is
because of poor habits.

Good luck is different.

It's an unexpected bonus
for being correct.

I have a lot of good luck.

[Hank] Come on, now!
Come on! Come on!

[Hank] Did you bring it?

[Mike] You've asked me
that like six times.

[Wallace] Bring what?

[Wallace] What is that?

It's an octopus.

Hank wants to throw it
on the ice at some point.

You can't be serious.

Yeah, it's uh, like a tradition
or something.

I don't really...
honestly I don't really know.

You're not into hockey?

Uh, you know, it's cool
when they fight.

-Oh, there he goes.
-Come on.

Gentle stalker,
party of one.

God, she looks good tonight.

Hey, um, I signed up for the
student council, like you said.

Oh.

Yeah, so, you know,
hopefully that works out.

[horn blaring]

-[crowd cheering]
-[victory music playing]

[Announcer] Scoring his third
goal of the night

for the Penticton Vees,
number 7, Luke Ryan!

[Wallace] Why are they
throwing hats?

[Mike] If you score three goals
it's called a hat trick.

[crowd cheering]

Now, now! Do it now!
Throw it!

What, you want me
to throw it?

Yes, you.

A disabled person can't perform
a throwing motion.

Jesus.

Uh, I think it's frozen.

[Hank] What are you waiting for,
do it!

[thud]

Oops.

[Wallace gasps]

[spectator] Dude, what was that?
The dude's hurt.

[whistle blows]

[Mike] He's gonna be fine,
right?

Penticton, bench minor,
unsportsmanlike conduct.

Get a guy in the box.

What the hell!
Bullshit ref!

[Wesley] He did it!

The Drinkwaters!

In the red. He did it!

Well, hang on. Ok.
It was an accident.

Hey!

[crowd booing]

I'm sorry. I'm sorry.

Hey, all right, you don't need
even throw... All right.

You try throwing a pus!

Ok. They're getting violent.

You ok, bud?

I didn't do nothin'.

I'm coming, I'm coming.

I'm sorry.

[Hank] That's my son.

[Mike] I'm sorry.

Get some of those hats,
would you?

Sorry everybody, sorry.

[Hank] t's part of the game,
for God's sake!

-Sorry.
-It's a part of...

Ok. Oh sure, everybody
throws a hat.

We throw one octopus.

[horn blaring]

[crowd booing]

[Announcer] Vernon wins
four to three...

Clearly, you give no credence
to the legend of the octopus.

Eight tentacles, eight wins.
The Stanley Cup.

Yes, sir, I know the legend.

Then how can you show
so little respect?

Sir, I respect the tradition
of the octopus

as much as the next guy,

but your son threw a frozen
octopus at an official.

It was frozen?

There's too much shit
in the fridge.

Do you know that they have
three hearts?

That means they can love three
times as much as we can.

[Wesley] Hey, Drinkwater.

Oh.

Apple doesn't fall too far
from the tree, huh?

Maybe you should try and get
a grip on that boy of yours,

'cause whatever you're
doing right now ain't working.

Are you calling me a bad father
to my son,

in front of my son?

Uh, based on your track record
being a poor student,

a poor husband and probably the
worst goalie I ever played with,

I'd say that's a safe bet.

I was a decent backup
in '89 and you know it.

Huh.

And look where that got ya.
The mill.

Oh, Mr. Big shot.

Had a cup of coffee
in the AHL

and now he gets to pick on
the joe locals.

Your parents must be so proud.

I played in the Calder Cup.

More like sat in the press box.

I sat on the bench.

Yeah, I remember.

You seen my house?

My dealerships?

That's what real success
looks like.

I don't care about money.

Yeah, that's what people say
who don't have any.

I may not have your money,

but I got something a rich prick
like you would die for.

And what's that?

1979, tops, Wayne Gretzky
rookie card.

Ballpark value?
About $25K.

You're a collector,
aren't ya?

You don't have that card.
No chance.

Gettin' her appraised

Bullshit.

What, you think I'm the guy
that's gonna buy it?

Buy it?

I wouldn't sell that card
to you.

Are they really talking about
a hockey card?

Yeah.

You know, Pisswater,

that card would look real good
in my collection.

Speaking of cards,

do I have to play the disability
card here or what?

-Hey, Pisswater?
-Hey.

You have a fun time at
our game last night?

Uh, yeah, I guess.
Did you guys win?

Listen, smart-ass, your little
stunt cost us the game.

So I guess you guys lost, huh?

You're lucky I don't kick
your ass right here.

Living up to your name.

Oh, 'cause Pisswater.
'Cause of the pee.

That's funny.

How's it going?
I pissed my pants.

How are ya.

Hey, I pissed my pants.

[Student] Yeah, you
did dude.

All right, come on in, Mike.
Grab a seat.

Now, brought you in here 'cause
I think I have something for ya.

I didn't know you wrestled.

Mike? I just said I have
an opportunity for you.

It's just kind of hard
to picture you

wearing that spandex.

Mike...

That's 'cause that's
not spandex.

It's rayon.
Rayon's a man's material.

Look, I... I just said I have
an opportunity for you.

You played puck too? Huh?

Yeah. '89 Vees.
Used to be the Knights.

Oh, so you played with Hank?

Yeah, oh yeah.
Best backup goalie we ever had.

And him and Wesley Ryan,
they used to go at it every day.

Now I can see that that rivalry
has been passed down to you.

Yeah, yeah, unfortunately
it has.

Well, the CanAm Classic
is coming up

and I think you should be
in it.

A race? Running?

Yeah.

I... I... I hate running.

Come on, who hates running?
Everybody loves running.

Your dad loved running.

My mom loved it too.

She loved it so much
she ran out on us.

Is that a good enough reason?

Yeah. That's a pretty
good reason.

[clears throat]

Awkward pause.

Look, this race
is a big deal, ok?

I mean, we get American schools
coming up here

and those boys know how
to compete.

I don't know, Babber.

Look, the winner of
the CanAm Classic

also gets a $10,000 scholarship.

I don't even know if I'm gonna
go to university.

Woah! Time out.
Right there.

What are you gonna do?

Sit on your duff down
at the rink,

driving the old Zamboni?

Well, I mean, I haven't
been accepted.

I've applied to like six
different universities.

No one wants me.

No, no, no, hey.

Someone's gonna want ya,
all right?

Rejection's just a part of life.
It's ok. You let it go.

I mean, come on,
look around, I teach gym.

I got rejection cornered.
[chuckles]

Listen, you've always got
to be prepared for yes.

Now, sign-ups are this week

and I would love to see you
out there competing.

Ok. Well, I will think about it.

Good. That's all I can ask.

Back to class.

Oh, you do know that Luke Ryan
runs this race every year.

Just a thought.

Hm.

Yep, I am good.

Hank, you got a package.

Woohoo!

I've been waiting for this,
baby.

[hopeful music]

Yes! Yes! Yes!

Yes! Yes!

Yes!

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Yeah! Yeah!

[Mike] Yeah! Yeah! Yeah!

Mike, you gotta come in here

Hank, I just...

My Wayne Gretzky rookie card.

He's home.

Oh, yeah it finally came. Great.

Oh, they did a beautiful job
with the plastic, eh?

You know, I've had this beauty

since I opened up one of
my first packs as a kid.

Yep, yep I... I... I...
I know, you've told me.

And look, they graded it.

8.8.

[laughs] Holy shit!
It's bigger than my Bobby Orr.

Yeah.

Um, I was gonna say,

you remember when we
were talking about going
to university, well...

It's a priceless piece
of history.

Hank?

Look at that.

She's complete.

Uh, Hank? Uh...

Yeah, he used to work
at the mill

and they were doing cutbacks

and he figured he was going
to get laid off

so he faked an injury to collect
the insurance cheques.

So now he just kind of sits at
home working on Hank's World

and training for
an Iron Man race

that he's probably, probably
never going to compete in.

That's why he wears that
neck brace all the time,

'cause he's worried
he's gonna get caught

ripping off the government.

So, that's why he's always
looking out the window?

Uh, mmhmm.

And why don't you call

this ladies feminine

was Jackie Chen.

I had a girlfriend last year.

named Zelda.

She had these lotions

Hi Mike.

Hey.

You, you ok?

Yeah, no I am fine.

That's good.

Are you having
a good time?

I am having a great time.
This party is great.

I don't really get invited

and this one
is pretty groovy.

Well, I'm glad
you're having fun.

Yeah, it's... I think it turned

Yeah. No, you did

If it was just me it would have

Bruce Lee?

Yeah, Bruce Lee,
famous martial artist?

It's what I'm dressed as.
He's the man.

I'm been actually practicing

Oh, like the one that you landed
on the skeleton?

Yeah!

Yeah.

Ok, well, let's see it.

Oh, for real?

-Yeah!
-Yeah.

Yes.

Let's see some moves.

Definitely.

I just need something to kick.

Um, what about this?
Would this work?

That's great.

-Ok.
-That's perfect.

Ooh! Why don't you put it

about me

or pay attention to me
or anything like that.

One time when
I was like nine

he left the door open to
the house the whole night.

Like, a bunch of raccoons
came in the house.

Are you gonna be ok?

Yep. I think so.

Boop.

Ok.

Poop, poop, poop, poop.

All right, bye bye.

Bye.

Have a good night.

Hi.

Hey.

You ok?

Not really.

So you don't want to train?

I don't think I'm cut out
for this.

I just... I don't really want
to race anymore.

So, what, you're just
gonna give up

and forget about
the scholarship?

Yeah, I don't think
you quite understand.

I fail at everything
that I do.

I have no friends.
I have no girlfriend.

I have no family.

If I do the race,

it's just gonna end up
the exact same.

That's bullshit.

And what?

Quitting is the way for you
to feel good about yourself?

Why do you care
all of a sudden?

You know, I wanted to do this

so that she would think
I was worth something.

Are you kidding me?

You're gonna give up

because some girl doesn't give
a shit about you?

Why are you saying this?

Because I'm the only one who's
cared in the last two months

and you're, you're too damn
oblivious to even notice.

Ok, does, does Danny know
about your dad?

Does she help you train?

I was your closest friend
and you didn't even notice.

You don't care about anything
worth something.

You're being irrational
and delusional.

Just like Hank.

Hey, shut up!
You can't say that.

Why not?

You say it all the time.

What's your problem?
Your family...

[splash]

Screw you!

What the hell?

You pushed me into the lake!

Hey, Mike.

Uh, hey.

You ok?

Yeah. Yeah, I'm fine.

You're wet. Are you sure
you're ok?

Just don't...

Don't pretend like you care.

I know that you don't.

You are a 50-year-old shut-in,
completely obsessed

and, and driven by
your own delusions.

Did you know that I got
into university?

Did you know that?

Did you know that I'm running
a race, next week,

to try to get a scholarship?

That's great, Mikey.

Yeah, I mean, I'm not
gonna do it anymore.

I... I tried to tell you.

I... I... I tried but
you wouldn't listen.

You're too self-absorbed.

I can't even go

to the university that I want
to go to

because we don't have
any money... Hank.

We gonna sell Hank World?

I don't think anybody's buying.

So, just please don't pretend
like you're my dad.

You know, because you have not
been that for a long time.

Hank.

[sighs]

So I'd say once the plugs are
replaced and she's good to go,

we'll take her to the track
and check her out.

[Hank] Wes.

Drinkwater.

What the hell you doing
on this side of the tracks?

I know you're not here
to purchase something.

Got a minute?

Walk with me.

There is no luck behind
what you see here.

Built from the ground up.

Ryan Motors has proudly
serviced this town, this region

for over 60 years.

My father passed
this company down to me

and I plan to do the same
to my son.

That is, if he doesn't play
in the NHL, of course.

Yeah, yeah, your dad
did a good job.

What are you getting at?

Everything I build,
put my time into,

is for my son's future.

I assume you're here
for the same thing.

What's that supposed
to mean?

You're here to sell me the
Gretzky card, are you not?

Yeah. I figured.

What's the money for?

Mike got into university
and I can't afford it.

Isn't that what the race
scholarship's for?

He's not in
the race anymore.

Probably wouldn't
be enough anyway.

I would buy the card
but I just don't want to.

As you can see, I have
everything I need.

Maybe Mike should get back
in the race.

If not, I'm pretty sure
we're hiring.

Let's go.

[Luke] What was that
all about?

Nothing.

He wants a hand out but
that's not what Ryans do.

Mike quit the race?

Who cares?

You should be worried
about hockey,

not some silly little race.

[crashes]

[smashing]

[smash]

You were right.

I haven't been much of a,
of a dad to you lately.

I haven't been much of anything
really since your mom left.

I can't have you end up
like me.

I mean, everybody ends up

a little bit like their parents.
It's inevitable.

No.

You know, Mikey, you're...
you're better than me.

You deserve a lot more.

[knocking]

Look, man, I'm gonna
make this quick.

I shouldn't even be
doing this.

You kicked my girlfriend
in the face.

Yeah. I... I still feel really
horrible about that.

You're gonna race.

And you're gonna come
in second.

This thing's not worth winning
unless you're there to lose.

Uh, thank you?

Just... be there.
All right?

Tell Danny I'm sorry.

You're not gonna tell her.

I'm fine, Grandpa.

I'll be... I'll be in the den.

Grandpa?

Yeah?

What?

I, um...

I miss her too.

She loved you, Wallace.

More than anything.

Everyone handles
grief differently.

Some are stronger, some
feel it's easier to avoid it.

No one, no one should ever
have to go through

what we went through.

To bury our own child.

I spent a whole lifetime
raising your mother.

I watched her become
a young lady

and then a loving mother,
all on her own.

To think that she felt she
needed to do what she did...

She... she...
she was our baby.

[sobbing]

We just didn't understand.

I see so much of her in you

and that brings me
the greatest joy.

When you came
to live with us,

it made things a little
bit easier.

She's at peace.

And thanks to you,

I found a way to live
with it.

And your grandmother,
she coming along.

But please,
don't ever be afraid

of what you keep bottled up
inside you,

because that's not what your
mother would want you to do.

Because that's
what she did.

She was so incredibly strong.

But even a strong person
needs to let go sometimes.

It's not a sign of weakness.
It's just being human.

So when you find yourself
in a tight spot, tell us.

We would like that.

Because, maybe we didn't present
ourselves that way to your mom.

And I'm not going to make
the same mistake again.

[sobbing]

I know. I know.

I know. It's ok.

It's ok.

I miss her.

I miss her too.

We love you.

Are you going to be inside
on a day like today?

I don't have any plans.

Isn't the race on today?

I'm not going anymore.

I thought you're training Mike?

Him and I don't really
talk anymore.

Oh. That's a pity.

Because, for the last
two months,

the happiest I've seen you
was when you were with him.

he needs support too.
