All language subtitles for I Am Not A Hipster-2012

How's it going?

I, uhh...

I can't believe
you guys showed up

considering how much
of an asshole I am.

Uhh, I want to thank Joel
and Darla for helping me out,

and Tim for letting me play.

So, feels like
it's been a while.

I hope I don't screw this up.

I think I might have to

Woo!

Uhh...

Yeah, just give me a second.
Sorry.

Just a second.

Screw around for a little bit.

Oh!

Brook?

Are you there?
Pick up the phone.

I hope you know we're staying
with you for three days.

We're excited to see you.

Tell him I say hi.

Mez says hi.

Umm, sorry, I didn't want to
leave this on your machine.

But I don't know, I just don't
want you to be surprised.

Dad's coming so...

Just... Will you call me
if you get this? I love you.

Okay, bye.

What's up, Clarke?

You answered the phone!

What's up, man?
It's me, Clarke.

I know.

Hi, man.

Well, I just wanted to, uhh...

to let you know that,
today, I woke up.

And I felt very inspired
and motivated to, like,

push our career

into, like,
another level, dude.

It's going to be awesome, man.

Umm, anyways, so I wanted to
go over some bullet points

for today's radio interview,
dude.

Oh, shit, that's today?

Yeah.

You know I hate doing
this kind of stuff.

I really don't see the point.

Well, as your manager,
I think you should really

take advantage of
this opportunity, dude.

Clarke.

Yeah?

I don't need a manager, man.

Oh.

I'll just work on some stuff.
And then I'll meet you there.

Oh my God,
thank you so much, Brook.

It's going to be awesome,
I'm telling you.

All right, okay. So, I'll see
you there, all right?

Okay, cool. Umm, so I'll see
you at the radio interview.

And just call me
if you can't make it

'cause this guy's really,
really looking forward

to meeting you. And that's it.

And I know I'm talking a lot.
Sorry, Brook.

That's okay.

Okay, man. Umm...

I'll see you later.

I love you.

Have you got a green light, man?

Oh, look, it's still here,
still... Oh, ho!

See? That was, like, 35 seconds.

So, did you listen to
that new Paper Ted album

I sent you this morning?

Nope.

You got to check
your email more.

This guy is blowing my mind.

He's, like, New Wave-ish,

kind of like the Nimbles
in the early '90s.

And this guy has a Master's
in Electrical Engineering

or something like that.
He makes his own sounds, like...

It's sick.
I can't even explain it.

Look, I really got to piss.
How much time do I have?

Five minutes.

All right.

Hey, I was going to ask you,

think you could perform at
my art show this Thursday?

Man, you know how I am
about that kind of stuff.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, no. You know,
it's only a couple songs.

It would be, actually,
really fast.

I just hate playing
at art shows, man.

People talk too much.

Yeah, I hate that.
It's annoying.

I'm going to be there.
I just don't want to play.

It's...
I'll figure something out.

You sure?

Yes. Am I sure?
Yeah, focus on this.

Umm, don't forget to
plug Friday's show.

I'm going to be
listening to you online.

And... And, uhh, yeah, man,
rock it out. You look good.

I'm excited for you.
That's all I wanted to...

Close the door.
There it is, closed.

I just gave Canines
a re-listen this morning.

And it's just... It's just cool
to play some honest stuff.

You know what I mean?

Cool, thanks.

Hey, Ronnie,
let's get a level on this guy.

Will you say something?

Uhh, Ronnie,
let's get a level on this guy.

Okay, here we go,

in five, four...

♪ It's the underground,
it's the underground ♪

♪ It's the underground ♪

What's up, guys?

It's 1:10 on the clock.

This is your man Bradley Haines

with an instalment of
SD Underground,

bringing you everything
we can dig up

about the San Diego
indie rock scene.

Now, sitting right across from
me is a really special guest.

You might remember him
from a little project

he released last year

entitled Canines.

It came completely
out of the blue

and blew up on the internet
practically overnight.

Yeah, you know who
I'm talking about.

I'm talking about
singer-songwriter Brook Hyde.

Brook, welcome to my studio.

Thanks.

Let's just give the folks
a little background about you.

You're... You're fairly new
to our city, correct?

Uhh, yeah. I've been here
about two years.

I guess that's fairly new.

Yeah, that's new.
Where are you from?

I'm from rural Ohio.

You know Pretenders?
You a big Pretenders guy?

Nah, nah, I don't.

♪ Ohio ♪

No?

So, where you from in Ohio?

Uhh, west central Ohio,
little town called Houston.

"Houston"?

Yep.

Houston, like, Houston...

Is that Houston Street
or Houston Avenue

in New York, Ronnie?

Uhh, I just know Houston
in Texas.

Okay.

What was Houston, Ohio like?

Had a lot of craft fairs,
a lot of chilli cook-offs.

Oh yeah, a lot of those?

Yeah, you could probably go to
one every day if you wanted.

Yeah, I might do that.

I'm the kind of guy who, like,
if I eat something...

Like, let's say
I'm eating chicken...

I eat chicken every day
for, like, a month.

And then I don't eat anymore.
Like, I'm a streak eater.

You ever... What about you?

Umm, I've never heard of that.

You never heard of that?

No.

So, you... You come from
a big family, I hear.

Yeah. I've got three sisters:
Joy, Spring and Merrily.

Ha, those are...
Those are pretty cool names.

Yeah.

Who came up with those,
your mom or your dad?

It was definitely my mom.

Is your mom who you got

the creative genes from?

Uhh, she's pretty creative.

Yeah?

Yeah.

You got the creative side
from your mom.

What you get from your dad?

What do you mean?

I mean, like,
what your dad pass on to you?

He taught me how to say "Fuck".

Wow.

Uhh, Brook, you can't cuss.

I'm sorry. Sorry about that.

Believe me, I had to learn too.

So, umm, there's a lot
of buzz about you, uhh,

in the indie scene.

And there's so many musicians
I know

that would just kill
to trade places with you.

You mean they want to make no
money and be mildly successful

to a small group of people?

I like your humility.

But I mean, come on,
give yourself a break.

I think you've done
pretty well for yourself.

You've really generated
a cult following

over the last 12 months.

And I'm sure that cult following

is going to be
very happy to hear

that you are headlining a show

this Friday
at San Diego's Casbah.

Is that correct?

Yeah, that's what I hear.

Except to hear some
new material there?

Honestly, probably not.

But you been writing some new
stuff since the last album?

No, not really. It's just...

It just has been feeling
kind of pointless to me lately.

You mean the industry?

I mean everything,
making music, making art,

It all just seems
really stupid to me right now

for some reason.

How so?

I don't know. I just...

I have this neighbour
who's got this garden.

And she's, umm...
She's got all these sections.

She's got the carrots over here.
She's got cabbages over there.

She's got fruit trees
in the back.

And when she's all finished up,

she's got something she can
actually put in her mouth,

you know, to keep her alive.

It's something real.
It's something raw, important.

And, umm... And just the other
day, I was...

I was watching her.

And I was thinking, "You know
what? That's a real artist.

"Why doesn't somebody like that
have, you know,

fans and shows and radio
interviews, things, you know?"

That's a really good question,
dude.

I mean, every time I see her,
I just...

It makes me think
that what I'm doing

is a complete waste of energy.

So, why do you do it?

I don't know. I don't know.

That's what I'm trying to
figure out right now.

I'm sorry, guys.
I mean, this guy...

This guy with
the way he connects

and the words he uses,
I see why his music touches us.

I mean, wow.

Now...

You left the farm.
Why'd you leave the farm?

'Cause you wanted to be
closer to the ocean?

No. I... I hate the beach.

Seriously though, man,
why'd you pick San Diego?

There's a lot of cities
with, uhh,

indie music scenes, you know?

I hear Austin's
nipping at our heels.

Your mom was from San Diego,
right?

Is it because
your mom's from here?

She was from here.

What part of the city's
your mom from?

I'd rather not talk about her,
if that's okay.

I was just trying to, like,

help the audience, you know,
get to know you better.

We haven't been doing that?

We have. I'm sorry. I was just...

You ran out of questions.

You start asking me questions
about my mom.

I don't feel like
talking about her.

You're not okay with that?

No, I'm fine with that.

Would you want me to talk about
how she died two years ago?

And I moved out here?

And how when I wrote my album,
with the music,

it was, you know,
I was trying to

figure all that out for myself,
how to grieve?

Maybe you could fulfill
your childhood dream.

I might, you know,
start balling like...

You can have, like,
a Barbara Walters special

or something like that.

Is that what
you're trying to do?

Man, what...
Where is this coming from?

Look, man, if your mom died,

would you want to talk about it
on some indie pop radio show?

Hmm?

Do you realize
that I'm just trying

to help you promote yourself?

I have no idea, actually,

what the fuck
you're trying to do.

I'm just trying to
promote your music.

Well, guys, uhh,

that's the end of the interview.

Umm, thank you so much for, uhh,

for coming in to Brook Hyde.

I'm going to leave you
with "Spectator",

a track from his debut album,

Canines.

You know, guys,
he was a little rough on me.

But sometimes, an artist
has to express himself

in ways that
we don't understand.

But you know,
we're gifted with his music.

And just because he's an A-hole,
doesn't mean...

I'm... Let's go...
I'm not even on, am I, Ronnie?

They're playing the song. God.

That guy...
That guy F'd me up, man.

I thought you did really good
at the end though.

You wrapped it up really nice.

I seriously was just trying to
help him promote his career.

It was... It was intense.

You ever...

Ron, you ever go just, like,

"What else could I do
with my life?"

You know?

Did you know he was going to
ask that shit?

Dude, I had no idea.

Well, next time you convince me
to do something like this,

you know, maybe you should
fucking find out first.

I know, man. I'm so sorry.

I don't want to talk about it.

Fuck.

Fuck that guy.

He shouldn't have done that.

Wait till I get my hands on him.

You want to grab a couple
tall cans, play a quick nine?

- I'm Clarke.
- Hi.

This is my friend Brook.

Brook, come over here.

He's going to be
a famous musician one day.

How are you, hon?

Congratulations.

He likes to embellish
a little bit.

All right, have a good one.

Thank you for the ball.

Yeah.

Why do you have to say
stuff like that?

I just like being nice
to people.

You're such an ass.

Fore!

Shit.

I'm taking my mulligan.

Already?

Oh, we feeling brave today, huh?

You know Kells
is dating Spaceface?

Yeah, Dennis?

I think they've been going out
for a couple weeks now.

You knew about it?
Why didn't you tell me?

I don't know.
I thought everyone already knew.

That's wonderful.
I'm the last idiot to find out.

I thought you said
you were over her?

I am.

Okay, you should be.
Brook, look at you.

You're, like,
genetically advanced

by, like, light years.

If I was a girl...

Fuck! This shit is not helping.

She likes your music.

Woo!

So, this beer's made from
carob pills and Special B,

paired along with
a trappist yeast,

which was used by monks
in Belgium.

You get a nice,
Belgian pale ale.

The idea is to take a photo that
looks completely accidental.

So, you have just, like, like
a palm tree or a ceiling fan,

where it's just like
tons of negative space.

Yeah, yeah, oh!

You can kind of, like,
frame their faces in there,

but just, like,
kick it up a little bit

and get, like, a weird corner.

And you want a ton of tension.

That's the negative space.

Downtown Victoria, they have...

This shit is exhausting.

Want to go?

Nah, I just need a little break.

Okay.

Oh, wonderful.

Hey, boys.

Hey, Kells.

This is my friend Dennis.

This is Clarke and Brook.

Dude, I love Spaceface.

Oh, God, thank you.

Umm, hey, Brook,
great to finally meet you.

I just took a piss.

Oh, well.

Umm, I got to say,
I love your last album,

totally reminds me of

some of that early
Tom Blake stuff.

I hate that guy.

Oh, really?
Well, I'd love to, umm...

I don't know
if you'd be down with it...

but remix one of your songs,

add some kind of dance track
to it, some beats, some, like...

♪ Ooh ♪

Like...

Just for fun, just to,
you know, fuck around.

Yeah, definitely.

I think my shit would sound
really cool with a techno beat,

some Auto-Tune.

Okay, umm, yeah, you know,

just thought it'd sound
like a good time.

I like techno beats.

This guy likes techno beats.

- I'm going to...
- See you in there.

Yeah, cool,
good meeting you guys.

Yeah, thanks.

Okay, I'm going to
go inside too.

Why are you being a dick?

Why the fuck are you bringing
him to my friend's house?

Grow up, Brook.
It's been a year.

I'm not going to
stop hanging out

with all my friends
because you feel uncomfortable.

What do you think about
all this trivial shit?

Hey, guys, where's Sabrina?

Oh, thanks, John, love to.

So, this is just a standard
that... 6/8 in "A",

just repeats the one,
three, two and five.

And the chorus is "D", "A", "E",
but in, umm,

you know, half bars.

It goes to the "C" minor,
short minor,

before it goes to the "E"
the second time around,

builds through the chorus.

Do whatever the hell you want,
I don't care,

whatever feels right. One, two,
three. One, two, three.

This is a waltz

Hey.

What are you doing?

of Mom.

Oh my gosh,
look how cute you are.

So cute.

Why are you doing this now?

'Cause Joy said I had to.

Hey, Mez,
how do you want your period?

Uhh, runny, please.

That's disgusting.

You're disgusting.

Hey, Mez. Why are you guys here?

We're here to spread
Mom's ashes.

Do you not check any of
the emails that I send you?

Dad's all right with that?

Yeah, it was his idea.

Really?

- You know, you still do that?
- What?

You always look to Mez
to see if I'm telling the truth.

No, I don't.

Okay.

I'm going to take this plate
out to Dad then.

What?

What's she talking about?

Oh, Dad's here.

What do you mean, "Dad's here"?

Check your messages.

He's outside in the car.

He said he's not coming up
until you invite him.

Is she serious?

He's just being stubborn.

Yeast.

Not too much.

Mom liked a lot.

Garlic salt.

Okay, that's good.

Okay, you get to try it first.

Mmm. More.

Not till we start the movie.

What movie?

I'll get it.

You're going to love this.

Okay.

Come in. It's open.

Oh,

girls,

lots of 'em.

Cool hair.

Thank you.

Clarke, these are my sisters.

I'm Merrily.

I'm... I'm Clarke.

I'm Clarke.

Hey, I'm Spring.

Clarke.

Joy. How do you guys
know each other?

I'm sort of his manager.

Not really.

Well, sort of.

- Clarke is an artist.
- Oh, really?

I try to be, nothing like your
brother. You know, I try.

Whatever, man.

Clarke's got
this huge art show tonight.

It's not that big.

- We can all go.
- Yeah!

What kind of art is it?

Umm...

Clarke did those.

I... I did do these.

Umm, this is my mother,
which are disposable razors.

And that would be, like,
my dad with hair curlers.

And I always liked to touch his
moustache when I was little.

If they two got together
and pooped something out,

then I like to
think of myself as...

Umm...

Awkward.

We're about to watch a movie.

Do you want to come sit

so you can see it?

Okay.

Oh. Sorry.

I really like them.

Oh, thank you.

You want popcorn?

Yep.

Ready, you guys?
The best home video ever.

Mez, say hi.

Hi.

Want to play the guitar, Mez?

♪ And this is Spring ♪

Well, I'm Spring.

Brook? Brook?

Hello there.

Mom, can you read us a story?

I sure can. Bring me a book.

Okay.

Umm, wait. Hello?

Did she tell you guys
about her imaginary chipmunks?

How about, uhh...

Who want to go help me
feed the chickens?

I do!

Me!

- Move over.
- Yes.

We're going to get eggs, Mom?

Mm-hmm, we are.

Look at that.

Can I grab that one?

Can you reach it?

There you go.

All of them.

B-B-Be real careful.

Don't squeeze 'em.
Don't squeeze 'em.

Can you carry 'em back?
All right.

Mom? Can you help me
find a brush?

I know, I'll help you
find a brush in one second.

Let's go see
your brother and dad

on the piano for one second.
Can you do that?

Woo!

It's only temporary.

I want to get a Soma,

which is the best tubing
for a chromoly frame.

And when I get my next
unemployment cheque,

I want to get some Phil Wood
hubs, gold tires, gold chain.

It's going to be so rad.

And I'm going to
take off the brakes

'cause the brakes
are only for beginners.

So, I will... I think.

Have you guys ever seen Avatar?

Can I have one?

Didn't know you smoked.

I don't light it.
I just like the taste.

You're weird.

What's Dad doing?

He's fine.

He said he's probably going to
meet up with us tomorrow.

Sounds awesome.

Why'd you leave?

Honestly, because I'm not
a very good person.

Come on. I'm not trying
to guilt trip you.

Well, I don't know
how else to answer that.

I was driving in my car
on the way to the funeral.

And instead of turning right,
I just kept going straight,

till I got here.

What exactly is it
that you're doing here?

Just waiting for happiness
to become cool again.

That's depressing.

I don't know how
to do it anymore.

What?

That.

Safety first!

Go! Go!

I know it doesn't seem like it
but I really am trying.

Not excited that I
turned out this way.

Honestly, it surprises me.

Always thought I was a pretty
emotionally stable person.

You're serious.

Brook?

Do you guys want to go
watch me race?

It's my first time
on a velodrome.

Oh... Okay. When?

Right now.

Hey, everybody.

Thanks for coming down to the
San Diego Velodrome again.

Good to see you.

Brook, what's up?

Hey, man, you're here
to see Clarke, right?

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, I got you guys
some seats, actually.

There's a bunch of, like,
fixer wannabes in the front row.

So, anyway, so are you
excited for Friday?

Uhh...

You're going to play, right?

Yeah, yeah.

Yeah, are you just working on
new stuff or... new music?

No, not really, nothing new.

Oh, just focussing, that's cool.
I like to focus sometimes.

I usually, like, listen to
Canines, actually,

before a ride.

Hey, guys.

Brook's here.

Remember I told you
to move when Brook...

How you doing?

Good to see you.

Is Brook famous?

Maybe to these people.

Nice to see you.

All right, riders, going to
have to roll up on the wall.

I'd encourage you to get in
position, get ready to race.

So, you going to introduce us
to your friends?

I don't really know
any of their names.

Hey, guys, there's Clarke.

Clarke!

Going to start you
quarter to 1:00 there.

Riders, roll off.

Oh!

Come on, Clarke. You got this.

Go, Clarke.

Hey, look over here.

You're worse than Mom.

Thank you.

We're all real proud of Clarke.

He's really far back there.

He's... He's out there.

Keep going!

No one's really
keeping score anyway.

Hey, Brook.

Are you going to
Clarke's art show tonight?

Yeah.

Rad, us too.

Cool. Cool. See you there.

Rad.

You know what your problem is?

Depends on which one
you're talking about.

You surround yourself with
too many people who worship you.

It's not healthy.

You're probably right.

But it's hard to avoid
when you're as cool as I am.

It's actually a Marcel Duchamp
bicycle piece.

I got the idea from him.

And when you spin the wheel,

no matter how much the wheel
wants to go somewhere,

it can't go!

It makes me feel, like,
flabbergasted.

And this one was inspired by
Joseph Kosuth, my favourite.

He actually, uhh,
made an art piece in 1965

called One and Three Chairs.

And it was basically

the reference, the object
and the definition.

One of the guys wrote

"The finest, smoothest drinking
beer out of a can,

evidence that there truly is
a higher power".

Do you guys want to
hear something cool?

Yeah.

Okay, look at that.
Don't look at me at all.

This one is
pretty self-explanatory.

It's called
Don't Talk with Your Eyes Full.

Here. Want to listen to it?

Yeah.

I can see you. You can see me.

I am eye. Eye. I am eye.

I am the President
of the United States.

Took me seven months to make.
But it's done.

- What are you talking about?
- Be born again.

We have to figure it out.

What are you talking about?

3.14 is pi.

Ohm.

Hello. Hello, everyone.
Umm...

Hi, everyone.

Umm, whoa, all eyes on me.

Hi.

Hi.

Wow, my heart's beating
pretty fast right now,

so many people looking at me.

Umm, hi, my name's Clarke,
as many of you know.

Umm, I just wanted to say really
quick thank you so much

for coming out to my art show
and seeing some of, uhh,

my really silly art.

Umm, it means a lot to me

that you guys
came out to support.

I just really...

Uhh, my heart.

I just really, umm,
appreciate it that...

that more than
five people showed up,

umm, to my art show.

And, umm, it just
means a lot to me and...

Yeah, Clarke!

Yeah, yeah.

And I love you guys so much.

And while I have your attention,
everyone, umm,

I just wanted to remind everyone
that Friday night

there's going to be a show that
you guys don't want to miss.

He's one of the most talented
singer-songwriters

I have ever seen.

And he just happens to be
my best friend

in the whole, wide world, uhh,

Brook Hyde.

It will be...
It will be Friday night,

tomorrow night at 9:00,
at the Casbah.

Write it in your calendar.
Don't forget 9:00 at the Casbah.

Umm, and I'm just very excited.

Thank you so much
for coming out.

And, umm, let's party.
Thank you, guys.

Uhh, that was nerve-racking.

Beer?

Can you not ever do that again?

What?

This is your night.
Don't throw the spotlight on me.

Come on, man, you're amazing.
You're...

I can't... I can't help it.
It just pours out of me.

Look, I'm fucking serious,
Clarke. This shit pisses me off.

Okay.

Cheers?

Yeah.

Okay, so I want you to be
honest. What do you think?

Of what?

My art.

Ah, come on, man. You know
I'm not good at that shit.

It's okay.
I just want you to be honest.

I thought it was pretty cool.

Yeah?

Oh, man, thank you. Thank you.

Which one did you like the most?

The pink dolphins one
is pretty cool.

Don't make me choose.

Did you listen...

Hey, Clarke.

- Hey, guys.
- What's up, guys?

Hey, thank...
Thank you for coming.

Yeah, dude, any time.

What the fuck
are they doing here?

Dennis is going to play a quick
set. Then he's going to leave.

Of course he is.

Only 'cause you couldn't do it.

So, that left you no choice
but to book Spaceface.

I just like his music.

I do see similarities
in your work.

What do you mean by that?

You just... You just told me
you liked my art.

Yeah, well that was back when I
thought you were worth lying to.

I don't need your lies
to make me happy. I'm cool.

You can tell me
what you really think.

If I film this straw
for 30 minutes,

upped the contrast,
added a hipstamatic filter,

projected it on a wall
in an endless loop,

people will...
because they're stupid...

will think that there's some
kind of meaning behind it.

But there isn't.

It's a fucking straw.

So?

So, that's the kind of empty,
thoughtless shit

that's infesting the world
and making it impossible

to find anything that isn't
a complete waste of time.

There's too many assholes out
there with cameras and computers

making pointless crap
and calling it art.

It's fucking everything up.

Dude, why can't we just
have fun making stuff?

Great, man, have fun. Have fun.

I don't want to take
your fun away from you.

Don't call it art.
Call it something else.

Call if fluffy shit.

Yeah, you and Spaceface

and all those 15-year-old art
fuckers on YouTube are making

some great fluffy shit.

Dude, wow.

Umm, you're being
an A-hole right now.

I'm not claiming to be
a great artist.

I'm not claiming

to make good art.

I just do it because
it makes me happy.

Trust me, man. It's not your art
that makes you happy.

It's your incognizance.

Well, I guess
I should be offended.

But I don't know
what that means.

- You don't?
- No.

Well, that sounds about right.

Must be pretty hard to be you,
Brook.

Enjoy the set, man.

I will.

No, no, no, no. Hold on.

Yours was.

Ever hear of Miki Endo?

Miki who?

She lived in one of the cities
that got hit the worst.

Over half the people died there.

She was the one broadcasting the
warnings on the local station,

telling everyone to
get to higher ground.

She kept saying, over and over,
"Get to higher ground.

The tsunami is coming,"
over and over and over.

She never let go
of the microphone,

until the waves just
destroyed the whole city.

One of the old men
that made it to safety

been listening to her broadcasts

said they saw her
get swept away.

She was younger than me.

Fuck, it hurts so bad.

What? Your stomach?
Are you sick?

No. Maybe. I don't know. Just...

What's... What's wrong?

Uhh... I think, uhh...

I think I just remembered
how fucking lonely I am.

I miss...

I miss Mom.

I know you do.

It's going to be okay,
all right?

Come on, Brook.

Come on.

We should probably
get going soon.

Okay.

You okay?

I'll be fine.

Hey, sweetie.

I'm going with you.

Fuck!

Shit!

What's wrong?

I lost her.

What are they going to do
if they find her?

Fish her out
and throw her back in?

She's probably
laughing her ass off right now.

Your mom...

She never liked to do things
like regular people.

Four years before you were born,

she knew what your name was,

all of you,

said she wanted 'em
to be unique,

so we'd know
which ones were ours.

When she had you,

they tried to give her

that needle thing
in her spine for the pain.

She wouldn't do it.

She heard from some hippie that
it was bad for the baby so...

Pushing you out feet first,
no painkiller...

She squeezed my hand so hard,
she broke my finger.

Really?

Wore a splint on it
for two weeks.

I told her I...

I busted it working on
that old Ford truck.

I just didn't want her to know
she was stronger than me.

But she was.

I'm sorry I didn't show up
at the funeral.

It's okay.

Woo!

I found her!

Dad, I can't believe
you did that on the boat.

I totally thought
you were going to die.

Yeah, Dad, that was scary.

Come on. I was holding onto
the boat the whole time.

I wasn't a big deal.

Oh, yeah right.

Was it, Mez?

It was kind of bad.

I can't believe you all do that.
Nobody believes anything I say.

Everybody has to look at Mez.
Why do you look at Mez?

It's because you're basically
a pathological liar.

That's so mean and not true.

Yeah, it is. Ask Mez.

Okay, no.

And you're violent.
And you're violent.

Okay. Mez, what are you doing?

My shoes are still wet.

Here, let me take that.

Nah, nah, I got this.

Okay, all right,
well you know what?

You guys are
going to kill yourselves.

And I'm not going to watch.

Here. Thanks, Dad.

That it?

That's it.

Backseat, please.

Yes, ma'am.

Don't bump your head.

Thank you.

It was good to see you guys.

Come here.

You guys, come here.
I can't reach you.

Come visit sometime.

I'll think about it.

See you, Pops.

Try to eat a little bit more,
huh? You look a little thin.

Okay.

You take care.

Ten seconds.

Hurry!

Oh, God.

Ow.

Awesome. Shotgun.

What's up?

I'm sorry, man. You forgive me?

'Cause if you don't, then...

You okay?

Brook, you okay?

Hey.

I know you think

you're going to mess this up.

But you're not.

Sorry about that.
It's been a pretty crazy week.

Uhh, I don't know.

Umm, don't know why I'm up here
singing all these whiny songs

when people in other places are
drowning in their living rooms.

But, uhh, also, I just wanted to

tell you thank you
for coming out,

really appreciate you coming
to listen to my music.

And, uhh,

I'm going to do a really old
one, if that's okay.

This is a... the song I was
supposed to sing at a funeral.
