Original subtitles

There's a million Bravermans out there.

You can cry with them, but you come to me.

| can't be here for you anymore, Sarah.

KRISTINA: Hello? We've got a little situation here.

Trevor peed in my canteen. I'm gonna kill him.

When Daddy and | decided to take a break,

we also decided to take a break from each other's families.

If you're just taking a break,

when's it gonna be over?

Jack upped his bid. Oh, my God.

You have three days.

| have to get my life together.

I'm gonna make it work with Hank.

Goodbye, Mark.

Amber.

Mr. Mark! Mr. Mark. Hi!

How are you?

I'm good. How are you? Good, um...

How's everything? You're getting married.

I'm not.

Oh, my gosh. Nope, it's okay.

It's fine. It's for the best.

We didn't... Sorry.

We didn't go for that. Okay.

It's totally fine, though. I'm fine. Good.

Good, good. I'm actually good, yeah.

I'm, you know, working at the Luncheonette still, you know?

Nice. What about you?

Everything's... Everything's pretty good, yeah.

How's your... How's your mom?

My mom is... She's good.

Good. Good.

She's doing really well.

She's actually doing so well, it's crazy.

Yeah, she's this, she's, like, this huge photographer now.

Oh, so she's still with...

|! mean, is she still working with Hank?

Not really, no.

It's mostly her own thing.

You know Surfsport? Yeah.

Yeah, that's her client. No way!

Wow, that's incredible. | Know, it's crazy.

And, you know, she has her own apartment.

It's very cool. (CHUCKLES) That's cool.

It's very trendy, yeah.

That's good to hear.

Well, will you tell her | said hi when you see her?

If you see her? You'll see her. I'll see her.

She's your mother. I'll probably see her.

Yeah, | will. Of course I'll say hi.

Yeah. Well, it was good to see you. Yeah, you too.

All right, have a... Have a good... Oh.

(LAUGHS) Ah, jinx.

Bye, Mr. Mark.

So, what's going on here, slinky robe?

(GIGGLES) Nothing.

Huh? Got a little...

That's my favorite robe. | Know.

That's why | wore it. We've had some good times.

Look at what else | got. Oh, | see.

A little lotion for the ocean. What's going on here?

Come here.

(GIGGLING)

Honey. What?

We don't need the lotion anymore.

Max! What?

What are you doing? | wanted you to know

that | have made a decision,

and | feel much better about this school.

Buddy, it's way past your bedtime here. Okay.

Can we talk about this... My decision is

that I've decided never to go back to school again.

Honey, yes, you are. You have to go back to school, okay?

No. Look.

We set up a meeting with your teachers

and the principal. They're not my teachers

or my principal. Yes, they actually are.

It's not my school anymore. It's done.

Okay, well, where are you gonna go to school?

| don't know. Well, you have to go to school somewhere, Max.

That's not my problem.

I'm never going back to Cedar Knoll again.

I've decided.

ZEEK: Damn, it's dark in here.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa! Dad, Dad, Dad!

Hey, guess what, son? | found it!

CROSBY: What? | found it! The grille for my GTO.

It's the final piece of the puzzle. Congratulations. Get out.

| talked to the guy on the phone,

he said he'd wait a couple of days, but he's a little sketchy.

So we gotta get up to Eugene right away.

JASMINE: Eugene? We gotta... What?

Yeah, what, you're gonna let your old man

go on the road all by himself, for Pete's sake?

Come on, we're gonna get off the beaten path and go see America.

CROSBY: There's no way | can do that.

All of this to say it's gonna be

an early start. 0600 hours. All right.

Got it all settled? You want the lights out?

| want you out. Go, please.

Ridiculous. (GIGGLES) You know you're dying to go.

What? Yeah.

No, | didn't say... No, | didn't say that.

You wanna go, so it's fine. You have a slow work week.

Just go.

And just leave you with everything?

Yeah, I'll be fine. I'll be fine.

And it would be good for you.

Your dad needs you. Just go.

This has been an incredible meal.

Well, we deserve it. We got our first buyer.

Let's drink to that again. Yeah.

(LAUGHS) Let's drink again. (LAUGHS)

You know what?

Let me get this. Oh, no.

Come on, it's company charge. We're celebrating.

Listen, this job has been amazing for me.

And you took a chance and frankly,

it's the one thing in my life that makes sense right now.

So please, | insist.

Well, thank you. Very sweet of you.

Sure.

Come on, I'll do it, seriously.

Did you see that? | did.

No, no. | insist, please.

| got this.

Thank you. Thank you.

(CELL PHONE VIBRATING)

Hello? WOMAN: Hello.

I'm calling from Calibank fraud protection department.

We're trying to verify a recent charge on your card.

Are you the primary cardholder

of the card ending in the numbers 0458?

Yeah. Yeah, that's me.

I'm Julia Braverman.

Mrs. Braverman, can you confirm a charge

of $468.36 that was made tonight?

Tonight? No.

| did not make any purchase of $468.

What is it for? Where was it?

The charge came in at 12:18 a.m.

from an establishment called Chez Michelle

on San Jose Boulevard in San Francisco.

A restaurant?

Okay, well, no, I'm in bed. I'm asleep.

Well, is there anyone else authorized to use your account?

(SIGHS)

Zeek, in what world

is going to Oregon now a good choice?

Ah, for Pete's sake, Millie, my gosh.

You can't find these grilles anywhere.

This is the golden fleece of grilles, sweetheart.

| understand that, honey, but we got a big decision to make, and we've...

No, we've got 72 hours to make that decision.

We're only 15 hours in. Come on, we have plenty of...

You're avoiding. We gotta talk this through.

We gotta talk it through now.

Oh, by the way, you are late, so drop and give me 50. | was a little bit

rudely interrupted this morning, so now I'm back.

If this is a bad time, we can just call the guy and see if he'll ship it.

Do you wanna do that? This is not a bad time.

| talked to the guy.

He's a little crazy in the head.

Some of these things you need to do in person, face-to-face.

Okay, so you're leaving. So here's your medicine.

Don't... Would you make sure he takes these?

Okay. Anything good in there for me?

Come on, come on, come here. | love you, Mom.

CROSBY: See you soon. Love you.

Thank you. Okay.

All right!

(GRUNTS)

(LAUGHS) Freedom awaits.

Throw those pills out the minute we turn the corner.

Hey, guess what? | got the tunes.

Oh, look at this. | copied them off my 8-track.

All the hits from 1962.

Yeah. What else you got?

Guess what else? Oh, yeah.

You sweet-toothed son of a gun.

(HONKING HORN) Okay!

See you Thursday, sweetheart!

CROSBY: Love you!

AMBER: It was really weird. DREW: That's so weird.

Was he, like, old-looking, or is he just the same?

What do you mean? | mean, he looked like Mr. Cyr.

He had the same, like, weird mustache-y thing, you know?

He's not bald, you know, if that's what you're asking.

It's been, like, a year. | Know, but a year...

(PHONE RINGING) And teachers... |! mean, a lot can happen.

Hello?

Hey, Uncle Joel. What's going on?

(WHISPERING) Can I drink this? Oh! | see.

You know, | would love to, but I'm working late today

so | can't, but...

But Drew could do it. (CONTINUES WHISPERING) Do what?

Yeah, no, no, he's actually sitting

right here in front of me.

Nope, he is free as a bird.

We have to talk. No plans.

No plans at all. How do you know?

I'm not doing it. Uh-huh.

I'm out. Yeah, he's excited.

I'm not doing it. Okay, great.

4:00. Bye-bye. (IN NORMAL TONE) Do what?

You're baby-sitting for Sydney and Victor.

Oh, my gosh. Babysit them?

Yeah. They hate me.

Don't be a drama queen. There's no common interests.

No common interests? They don't like me.

It's not eHarmony. It's children.

Play a game with them. I'm not doing it.

Drew, you're doing it. 4:00.

SARAH: Beautiful framing job. Yeah, there you go.

| love it. | don't know.

Hanging a picture of a brochure

is a little weird, but all right. Don't call it a brochure.

It's a beautiful picture that was in a brochure

that was our first big job.

Cheers. Oh, yeah.

A couple more jobs, too. That's...

| know, huh? The two of us.

We're a regular team. That's hard to believe.

(LAUGHS) | gotta be honest.

| didn't think it was gonna work.

Really? You had a negative outlook about something?

That's a shocker. Yeah, didn't...

The whole thing's kind of working out,

just spending time working, even just hanging out together.

It's been pretty good.

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

The, you know, the working part.

Mmm-hmm. No, the... No, the working, yeah.

Hold on one sec.

Hi! Yesterday | saw Mr. Cyr.

(GASPS) Mark Cyr, Mr. Mark.

Oh, no kidding? Hey, Hank's here. Come on in.

Hey. Hi.

How are you? Good.

So we're celebrating.

We finished our job, and then we got this new job

for an organic skincare company.

Do you want a glass of champagne? AMBER: Okay.

Oh, no, definitely not. No.

Cool. But you can't stay?

| can't because it's late, so...

All right. See you.

(SOFTLY) Text me from the car. Okay.

More champagne?

We take matters of bullying very seriously, Mrs. Braverman.

We're doing everything we can to get to the bottom of what happened.

Well, what happened was somebody peed in my son's canteen, so...

ADAM: He was traumatized by it. He is traumatized.

| understand.

But as of yet, no one has come forward

and admitted to the incident.

Well, of course they haven't.

Well, Max has a pretty good idea who did it.

You can't just start making accusations without proof.

How would you feel if your child were accused

of something that he didn't do?

I'm sorry. | can't believe this.

He's the kid who had his canteen peed in.

Honey, I'm really trying hard to keep my cool here,

but | gotta say your response to this really blows.

Oh, boy. This is a serious incident.

And nobody's blaming you, Mr. Knight.

You did everything you could. You can't watch everybody,

but, you know, this was an official school trip.

It happened on your watch, and I'm expecting you to take some responsibility.

Excuse me, Principal Radford, if | may.

| have to say that | agree

with Mr. and Mrs. Braverman here.

We can't accept this. We can't.

We gotta get Max back here.

If we fail one kid, we fail as a school.

Thank you.

Thank you, Mr. Knight.

| understand your passion, Mr. Knight.

And | understand you want this resolved immediately, Mr. and Mrs. Braverman,

but it will take time. Okay, | got that.

It doesn't sound like it. But what are we supposed to do

as parents in the meantime? He doesn't want to come to school.

We want to get him back in the classroom.

He's refusing. So what do we tell him?

Well, as... As the Dean here,

my feeling is since there's only

one month left of the school year

and since this is Max's graduation year anyway,

maybe we don't push Max to return to school

before he's really ready.

Okay. Okay.

So that's your solution.

To keep Max at home.

Keep my son at home,

not the kid that pissed in his canteen.

All right, look. They're not gonna deal with it.

You're gonna punish my kid... Let's just go.

This is asinine. This is... This whole... No.

This whole conversation is useless, okay?

Thank you so much. I'm so glad that you are here.

This, you and you, this whole situation is useless.

Thank you so much.

Have a good day. Don't laugh at me.

I'm not laughing.

Well...

It's been three whole days.

Is that right? Yeah, it's right.

Living in total darkness... Total darkness?

And the catalogs have been piling up

downstairs by the mailboxes.

(PHONE RINGING) | promise I'll take... I'll take care of that.

Just a lot of promises, sweetheart.

Excuse me. | just think

that your head hasn't been into your work lately.

Hello?

MARK: Hey.

Hey, it’s Mark.

(LAUGHS NERVOUSLY) Cyr. Um...

Hi. Hi.

Um...

Sorry. | hope it's okay to, you know, call you.

| think it's... Sure, it's fine.

What's going on? Well, I...

| don't know if Amber told you

that | ran into her...

Oh, yeah, no, she told me.

That was weird. That's so wild.

It was weird, yeah, but she...

She looks great. She seems good.

Yeah, she's doing good, like you said.

SO anyway, | was wondering if...

| really need talk to you, and, um...

| don't wanna do it on the phone. Can we

meet, do you think?

Of course. Okay.

Okay.

(OPERA MUSIC BLASTING)

(ZEEK SINGING ALONG)

Okay. Dad, Dad, Dad...

Don't turn it off. | can't do it.

Do not turn it off.

It's breaking my ears, please!

Is this not great or what, Cros?

You bet.

Got chili dogs, it's a beautiful day.

Open road. We be in California...

Mmm-hmm. The land of oceans

and deserts and mountains and palm trees.

This land was made for you and me.

Dad, what are you gonna do about the house? What are you thinking?

What do you mean? What are you talking about?

Your house, you know,

the one you gotta decide whether or not

you're gonna sell within the next 52 hours.

That house?

Yeah. Well, what are you gonna do?

Well, to be honest with you, Cros,

uh, l...

What?

Dad? Oh, my goodness gracious!

Look! We got ATVs up here.

Ohl!

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, pull over!

Get in there! Let's do this!

ZEEK: We haven't done this since you were a kid.

SARAH: You actually think the waiter's gonna

tell you whether he was on a date or not?

Yes, I'm gonna make him tell me...

All right. What he knows.

Is there a possibility it was a business dinner

that went on a long time?

| don't Know, maybe. | hope so.

All | know is that it cost $468

and that it was charged after midnight last night.

Wow.

Oh, five minutes. Okay.

(SIGHING) Okay.

Well, it seems to me that

you should be able to ask him,

and he should tell you if he was on a date.

Yeah. | can't do that.

| can't ask Joel because

he's basically... Not talking to me.

He's being very short with me.

Still? Yeah, he's making me feel

like anything that's not the kids' schedules

is off-limits to talk about. Julia, that's horrible.

| know, but! don't...

| just... | don't know what's going on.

And so, | just... | wanna know. What do you want to happen?

With us?

| want...my marriage back, you know?

But, um...

But if | can't have that, then | would like to know.

It seems to me you deserve to be able

to ask your husband what he's been doing,

and he should give you an answer.

Yeah.

You're totally right. So let's get outta here.

Good for you. Let's go. Yes.

Can we still have lunch? Yes, but not here.

| can't afford this place.

So... Your dad told me

you're not going back to school today.

Ever. |am never going back to Cedar Knoll.

(SIGHS) Yeah.

| get it.

School can definitely be no fun sometimes.

MAX: | can do everything | need to here.

Also, I'm smarter than all of my teachers,

and you guys have Internet and better snacks.

Also, the snacks are free. | don't have to pay for them in the vending machine.

All good points.

Except, you know, here,

we don't have all the other kids.

| hate the other kids.

AMBER: | understand.

| had some pretty rough times in middle school myself.

Not this rough.

Hey, Max.

Let's say you and | get outta here.

Where?

Go have an adventure.

It's a Surprise.

| don't like surprises.

Well, | think you're gonna like this one.

You ready, Max?

What are we doing here?

We're gonna go surf.

| don't surf. You don't surf yet.

| don't surf at all.

Listen, | got a Surprise for you.

This is the surfboard | learned on.

Isn't that cool? It's not 3:00 p.m. yet,

and Cedar Knolls said specifically

that | have to keep doing schoolwork until 3:00 p.m.

Okay, screw Cedar Knoll. Can you hold this?

That's a bad word. | Know it Is.

|! would lose screen time for saying that word.

I'm gonna give you extra screen time if you say,

"Screw Cedar Knoll." Screw Cedar Knoll.

All right, can you hold this?

All right, grab that gray bag right there.

It's got your wetsuit in it.

All right, let's do this.

Let's catch a wave.

You ready?

| don't know. You ready to surf?

| don't know. Yeah, you are.

You can't know that. | do!

ADAM: | know it!

Come on, bud!

(OPERA MUSIC PLAYING)

(KNOCKING ON DOOR)

Hey. Hey, what's up?

There he is! How's it going?

Good, buddy. Hey, thanks for doing this.

Yeah, this is the new house?

Yep, this is... This Is it.

JOEL: Hey. Guys.

Look who's here.

It's your cousin.

Hey, guys. Hey.

Hi. JOEL: All right, I'm off.

| love you.

Get out today, okay?

Don't sit here doing this all day,

and I'll be back at 8:00 at the latest, okay?

And, hey, thanks again. Yeah, totally.

Call me if you need anything.

All right, cool. Okay.

JOEL: Bye, guys. Bye.

(DOOR SHUTS)

So what do you guys wanna do?

Do you wanna go to the pool?

The pool's freezing cold.

And there's so many chemicals, it burns my eyes out.

ADAM: Isn't that cool? A wave of energy.

Hey, you guys.

Oh, hey! Hi.

How was your schoolwork? Dad took me surfing.

ADAM: Yeah. You took him surfing?

MAX: It was amazing! Yeah, it was great.

| should've called you. Yeah, Dad said it took him

three weeks to get up his first time,

and | got up on my first day. Mmm...

How was your schoolwork? It was amazing.

Dad said, "Screw Cedar Knoll." It was done.

Really? Did he? MAX: Yes.

MAX: | have to change. Are you kidding?

Listen, he finished all of his schoolwork.

We were only gone a couple of hours. He finished it?

Okay, we're not setting a good example.

You can't just reward him for not going to school.

| Know this whole situation is...

Don't say that I'm sending him the wrong message,

| Know we have to be careful with Max with this sort of thing,

but the kid deserves a break.

It's not a paid vacation.

| Know it's not.

Look, | Know we have to figure out what we're doing with Max.

| Know we have to be together on this.

But right now, | just... | felt like

| needed to see my son be happy.

| wanted to see a smile on his face.

And | did.

Right. He really got up?

Yeah, he did.

That's kind of awesome.

It's a good thing. Really?

Did you really say, "Screw Cedar Knoll"?

| need to rinse off my... You did.

Don't do that. It's fine if you take him...

SYDNEY: Stop!

VICTOR: Go, get off! It's not even your turn!

SYDNEY: Yes, it is! Give it to me!

SYDNEY: You've been using it all day! VICTOR: No, | haven't!

SYDNEY: Yes, you have! DREW: Hey, you guys.

Stop. Stop!

Jackass. Stupid.

I'm not stupid. Yeah?

Then why'd you get left back? Stop it!

| didn't get left back! Stop! Stop!

We're not doing this, all right?

We're not playing the game anymore.

Just gimme this. We're leaving. Okay? Come on.

You guys...

| think it's like,

the most depressing $40 I've ever made.

What's the apartment like?

It's sad. It's like a whole

complex of Uncle Joels.

No. Yes.

How are the kids taking it?

Not good, they like, argued the whole time.

And they, they don't wanna do anything.

What do you do with that?

| mean, it makes sense. Remember how unpleasant

to be around we were when Dad left?

Yeah, that's true.

Well,

at least you could pay for dinner this time.

Yeah. Huh?

Uh-huh. That's true.

Thank you, it was delicious. You're welcome.

Hey.

Hey.

Do you wanna come inside, or...

Uh...

No. | think that's probably weird for the kids.

And for me. Yeah, | get that.

Um, Sydney's science folder for tomorrow. Okay.

You didn't have to come all the way here for this.

No, | didn't.

Um...

The fraud alert people called me about a charge

at Chez Michelle last night.

It's $468. So sorry, yeah.

Um, it was a business dinner. With Peet. Okay.

Good.

Um...

If it was a business dinner, why didn't she pick up

the tab? Because...

Sorry. It's... We're sharing finances. No, right, right.

It's still... It's weird. Um...

She offered to pay. We were celebrating.

We had just sold our first house.

So | picked up the tab. Oh.

That's fantastic. Thank you.

Yeah, congratulations.

Are you sleeping...

Dating each other?

| offered to pick up the tab, Julia.

Okay.

| had no idea it was gonna be that much money.

That's all that happened. Okay.

Okay? Okay.

| didn't have sex with her. | didn't

kiss her, | didn't go over to her house with our children

and cook dinner with her. Okay.

| didn't have long intimate texts with her. Joel, | have apologized.

| made a mistake.

| have begged for your forgiveness.

But right now, I'm just trying to understand

where we are in this.

And | feel like | have not been able to talk to you,

like it's not allowed or something.

And | don't wanna live in limbo.

You know, SO are we...

Trying to get back together?

Or are we trying to date other people?

You know, it's just not fair not knowing.

Yeah.

Yeah, you know what? It's not fair

that | stayed home raising our family

and supporting your career for all those years,

and when it was your turn, you couldn't do that for me.

That's unfair.

You come into my work and you make a scene in front of my boss,

you have an affair with Ed.

That's not fair. | didn't have an affair with Ed.

Whatever it is. | just...

| believed that our relationship was built on mutual respect.

And | just found out that that's not the case.

Joel, I...

| respect you more than anyone | have ever known.

Listen, | know that

your dad was unfaithful to your mom.

And to think about... Can we just talk about us right now?

| mean, my parents have nothing to do with this. Fine.

Okay. Okay. | just hate this.

You think | don't hate this?

You think | don't hate living in this crappy apartment?

Trying to make it great for the kids?

You think | don't hate that they sleep in our house

every night and | sleep alone here?

| hate it. Our marriage, it wasn't working, Julia.

It wasn't working for me.

And | don't know what | want.

But if you have to know, if you're gonna

press the issue right now, then my answer is no.

We're not working on our relationship right now.

We're not trying to get back together right now.

I'm sorry.

Whoa! Look at this joint.

They got ski boats and muscle cars.

Oh ho, ho, ho! Dad, look at this bike. Uh, yeah.

Are you kidding me? No, no, Crosby, come on.

A little cafe racer. | need your focus. Come on.

Wow, that's gorgeous.

It's all hand built. Huh.

You gotta ring the bell, | think, Dad. Right.

Yeah, can | help you?

Huh? Hey! Hi. Are you Paulie?

I'm Ernie. Ernie.

Oh, hi. Well, I'm Zeek Braverman.

And | talked to Paulie and...

About a grille fora 1965 GTO.

Grille for the GTO. ‘65, you say?

Oh, yeah, I've got somebody else interested in that. I'm sorry.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no. No, it can't be.

| mean, it's too late. | mean, because | drove up here from Berkeley, California

‘cause you know, Paulie and | had agreed on a price and talked about...

Well, this is not Paulie's place.

Do you see Paulie's name anywhere up there?

ERNIE: No, it says "Ernie's Salvage Yard."

Okay, we're getting off to a bad start here.

Maybe we could just look at the grille? You might not even want it.

Could we? Would you show it to us?

Would you be willing to do that before we...

All right. GTO. 1965 grille. Your temperature's going up, okay?

Mint condition. I'll tell you what, you ain't gonna find this anywhere else.

Ooh. Oh, man. | see it. | see it.

CROSBY: That's nice. Oh, yeah.

Yeah. This is the one.

Okay, listen. | got $450 right there.

Yeah. Pay the man! That was the price Paulie and | agreed on, so...

$450?

Yeah, that's the deal. No, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Look, | can't go $450 on this.

This is a 1965 mint condition

GTO grille.

Now where you gonna find something like that? Here.

Here is where I'm gonna find it.

That's what Paulie and | agreed on.

That's why | drove 500 miles to get here.

This right here. This is where I'm gonna do it.

Look here. | cannot let this go for $450.

Yeah, we had a deal! Well, | don't have a deal!

Paulie and | had a deal!

All right... Will you forget Paulie? Paulie is not here!

Now... How convenient.

This fella that's interested in this is willing to go $800.

| can't let it go for less than $700.

Okay, let me tell you something.

Now, wait, wait. Wait a minute.

You know what this is sounding like to me? This is a scam.

This is what this is. A scam operation. Yeah. Yeah.

You and your invisible friend Paulie. Okay, okay.

CROSBY: Hey. Hey. | think you gentlemen better get off my property.

Okay. You can put that down. Dad, let's... Now, that's a little hasty.

No, we need to regroup. We're gonna...

We're gonna see if we can scrounge up some more?

| got 450 bucks right here. You want it or not?

| don't want your business, no!

Okay, yeah, yeah. Now, get on out of here.

You don't want my business? He's got a weapon!

You know something, sir? You suck.

You get the hell off my property!

What do you think I'm doing? I'm going.

Go!

I'm gonna write a bad review on Yelp about this.

| thought | was done with her.

And | guess I'm not.

It's just that we were getting...

Getting along, you know? We were getting closer. Hmm.

And then | thought...

| was starting to believe that maybe there was a chance.

| don't know.

Doc, come on. I'm not gonna cry.

Hank...

My strong suggestion is that you

start to open yourself up to other possibilities.

Beyond Sarah.

Yeah.

Yeah.

It's just easier said than done.

I'm blowing my nose.

Ah, man.

Okay, just for the record,

these are not the world's best waffles.

You probably don't have enough butter on them. Huh.

Dad, we're gonna get you another grille for the GTO.

We'll go online and look it up.

We'll google it and I'll find it for you.

It's not the end of the world. It's not about the grille.

It's not about the grille.

What's it about?

Oh, God. What is it?

I'm feeling old, Crosby.

Dad, you are not old.

No? Not by a long shot

| mean, | didn't expect you know, just...

This thing is happening way too fast for me.

The idea of selling the house...

You know, it just feels like I'm cashing it in.

Cashing in the chips.

Feels like the end.

Have you told Mom that?

| told her I'd sell it, you know.

And I'm not gonna be a welcher like that guy with the grille.

That son of a bitch.

| mean, | told her I'd sell it,

and if | turned around on that now,

|! mean, what kind of a man does that make me?

What do you think | should do, Crosby?

Ernie! My father was quoted a price.

And you're gonna honor that price. Not a penny more.

| told you gentlemen, I'm not interested in doing business with you.

Okay. Well, listen, I'm gonna make this worth your while.

Go on.

Hey... Hi!

Hi. Hi.

Hi, hi!

(GIGGLES) Hi!

Thank you. (CLEARING THROAT)

Am | late? No, | was even a little late.

Oh! You're just slightly later than me,

but | was proud of myself. This is so nice.

Yeah. Yeah.

You look so great. Oh, no. You look great.

Thanks. Um...

(SIGHING)

So...

Well, Amber told me how incredibly successful you've been

this last little period of time.

So congratulations. That's not true.

Yeah. | wouldn't say incredibly successful.

| got out of my parents’ house

so, that's... That's great.

Yeah, um, | found this place.

I'm the super of the building.

Did she say that? She didn't mention that part.

But she told me about the... I've become handy.

Yeah! And then, yeah, the photography thing has been

really surprising. Yeah, that's what she was saying.

That you've done some big jobs, ads for Surfsport?

That's... It wasn't. It was their, um, sort of annual report,

like, brochure.

But it was a huge job... Yeah. That's still amazing.

And they liked it. So it's led to other...

Ooh. That's great. I'm really happy for you.

Oh, | ordered the...

Is it the Italian? Yeah.

Thank you. Of course. Um...

Oh.

But... But, yeah, congratulations. That's so great.

I'm so happy for you. Thank you.

So, how are you?

Um, I'm good. I've been... I've been good.

| actually...

This is a little embarrassing. But...

| did bring this.

Uh...

(GASPING) I'm a published writer.

Ah! Oh, wow! Yeah.

Oh, wow! It's justa little journal.

It's not the New Yorker. Who cares? It's amazing!

It is, it's exciting.

It's your name in print. | Know! That was my favorite part.

Can | keep this? Can | read it? Yes, that's for you.

Oh, my goodness. That journal has a circulation of 37 people, so...

Well, you must be very proud. lam.

Now it's 38. | can't wait to read it.

Yeah... Wait, here.

And the other thing that's sort of been

going on is that, I've...

Met someone.

Um...

Oh! A woman, she teaches at Roosevelt.

And, um...

We're actually engaged.

Oh, my God.

Yeah. Yeah.

| mean, it happened really fast.

You know, we just sort of...

We wanted the same things. We both wanted to start a family,

and we just sort of both knew.

So...

But when I, you know, | ran into Amber,

and l... (CLEARS THROAT)

It just came to me that sooner or later

you would run into someone

and they might tell you, and | didn't want you to just,

| don't know, hear from someone. | wanted to...

Thank you. That's so nice of you. That is so you to...

That is...

SO... I'm really happy for you. | really am.

Thanks.

That's so great. That's so great.

Cheers. Cheers. Cheers.

Um...

(CLEARING THROAT)

All right, this looks good. And...

There. So how high should | be holding the product?

Uh...

What do you think there, boss?

Yeah, that looks good.

Good for you? But just turn the label towards...

She looks great, thank you.

Think we're good. Yeah. Let's go.

You're at five, six, right? Yeah.

Yeah. Nice.

And just tilt it down, | mean a tiny bit there.

Start with that, and then... Yeah. Thank you.

How did dinner go, by the way?

Good, it was good.

How's he doing?

Good. He got a short story published.

Yeah? Well, good. Angle your body, just a little more like that.

Yeah, nice.

And he got engaged.

Smiling, or... Sure.

Really?

Really. Hmm.

Well, good for him.

Nice.

WOMAN ON TV: You just called me a liar | do not lie.

(KNOCKING) You know, one of my biggest faults is that I'm

too straight and | have too much to Say as it is.

Hey. Hey. Trust me.

Hey, guys. Hey. We're gonna go out, okay?

So, come on, let's go.

No questions. And wear something warm, okay? Mmm-hmm.

AMBER: Cool strings. Geez, Louise. Look at this. DREW: And this shape...

AMBER: How does this go? DREW: Yeah, we gotta...

I'll just watch.

Me too.

Sorry? No.

Yeah, no, no. We're gonna go skating. It's gonna be fun.

You didn't even tell us where we were going. That's rude.

AMBER: Rude? This place looks really crappy.

Okay, I... This is what I'm talking about.

Listen, we used to come here a lot when we were little.

It's actually really fun once you get out there. | promise.

It looks like it got pretty old since then.

Okay. Okay.

It's run down. Well, it's a '70s-style decor, that's true.

But once we're out there, it's actually gonna be really fun.

Well, I'm not skating. Me neither.

You can't force me.

So what do we do? Okay.

Can | talk to you guys for a sec?

Can you sit down just for a second, please?

You guys,

| Know that what you're going through is like, really, really hard.

And I'm not just saying that. You know?

I'm saying it ‘cause | went through it, too.

And there's not a whole lot that | can say or do that's gonna make it better.

But | can tell you that at least you don't have to go through it alone.

You know? ‘Cause you guys have each other.

Just like | had him.

| promise you, it makes it a lot easier.

So just don't give up yet. Okay?

We can still have some fun.

Give it a try, huh? Give it a shot.

What do you say? Five minutes, if you don't like it we can leave.

Fine. Okay.

Yeah! All right. All right.

Let's strap up. Huh?

Whatever... (GIGGLES)

| want you to know, Max finished all his schoolwork.

KRISTINA: Okay. ADAM: All of it.

And we promise to be home before dinner. Wait a second.

He finished all of it?

All of it. Every single part of my homework.

Okay.

Mom, you should come with us.

Yeah. Oh, honey. lam not a beach person.

I'm from Cleveland, remember?

He'd love for you to come. Tell you what.

Why don't you just leave that and we'll grab some pizzas on the way back.

Please. | want you to come.

Okay. | can't say no to that.

All right. I'm gonna get Nora. Here, look.

You can take pictures of me when we're there.

Open it up like this, and then you wind this

forward twice, and then back once.

And then you close it, and this button here controls the shutter.
