- Good morning! - Maya: Let's go! Everybody up!

What's going on? It's 3:00 a.m.!

Is it an earthquake?

Yes! We finally get to eat the emergency tuna fish.

It's moving day.

We realized we've got to get all of our stuff

out of the old house by 7:00 a.m.

Yay!

- Coming through. - Why are you saying "yay"?

To make it sound fun. Didn't work. Moving on.

How did you forget about this until now?

Oh, Ray, if your dad and I planned,

you wouldn't be here at all.

Not you. I wanted you.

- Ray, everybody's ready. Let's go. - No.

I refuse to get up on principle

because this is so disorganized.

[Sighs]

- Why the hell are you naked? - I was trying something out!

Jimmy: Two hours.

Grab anything you want to take to the new house.

Found the moving shovels!

Can I make a suggestion to save us all a ton of time?

And doesn't use JJ as a snowplow?

Oh, he's having the time of his life.

Go on, love. You're almost through.

Let's not take this stuff, any of it.

But it's our stuff.

Yes, but before it was our stuff,

it was other people's garbage.

The chair we found under a bridge, and the fish tank...

That is a perfectly good TV stand.

No, it is not!

Nor was it a perfectly good "Dylan's crib."

Remember when she used to pound her little fists on the glass.

"Help!"

Ray, these are our things,

and there's a certain romance to how we got them...

The thrill of the chase, the excitement of the big score.

It's like hunting,

but you don't have to pretend you like deer meat.

Wouldn't you love a house

with nice things that go well together?

A room with a tasteful rug and matching lamps?

This is embarrassing.

I'm sorry you feel that way about our life, Ray,

but we have challenges other families don't.

You use that excuse for everything.

I'm sorry I don't have other, better excuses, Ray,

but we have challenges other families don't.

Yes!

I knew you could do it, darling!

Hey, hey! Look at you, baby girl.

You sure like that running, don't you?

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I get it.

What's that supposed to mean?

Well, it's funny.

Your brother doesn't walk, so to compensate,

you push yourself to run as fast as you can.

It's like you're running for the both of you.

Is that why I run?

I thought I liked it.

Eh, I dunno. That's one theory.

Well, enjoy your run.

What am I running from?

Good morning, DiMeos!

What's all this stuff? What's going on in here?

JJ has special needs.

It's also why we're eating licorice for breakfast.

"I made some friends."

Not just friends... Cool friends.

Tell them what we did yesterday.

"We pranked Eastlake."

Well, it's Homecoming Week,

so Lafayette and Eastlake High have this prank war.

Frickin' epic!

If you're in high school. Yeah, I find it silly.

"Show the video."

Boy: You ready to go, JJ?

So, there's Dan Holden, total stud.

And Zach Garcia... he's the captain of the football team,

but he's super down-to-earth.

Okay, so, now, originally, we were gonna

tie up their quarterback and send him up the flag pole,

but Rob White's a lock for Stanford,

and you don't want to mess with that.

Stop saying teenagers' names.

All right, JJ, pull it up.

Do the honors, JJ.

Hey! Yeah!

[Laughter]

JJ, look at you!

And the doctors said you'd never be able to commit vandalism.

Do you know, putting you in a mainstream school

was the best decision we ever made.

You're being included. And you're cool!

I know a mother's not allowed to say that matters,

but now that we're being honest, it's all that matters!

It is?

Oh, darling, this opens up whole new worlds.

You're gonna need new clothes, maybe a motorcycle...

Don't go getting any young ladies pregnant.

Yeah, like Allen Rice!

Dude's a sophomore, but he's all,

[Scoffs] How lame! Am I right?

Huh?

No?

Ugh. Sandeep is such a gossip.

Yes, it's true.

Let's meet up downtown in an hour.

Great.

But this went really well.

I think that's the takeaway!

[Sighs]

Oh, look who's home from school.

Coolest thing on wheels.

I got you something.

I made it.

New board for a new life.

I figured you might want to pepper in some cooler phrases,

so new offerings include, "'Sup?"

"Hey, Girl," and "Kanye."

He comes up a lot, doesn't he?

So, I jammed a lot on here,

and I accidentally omitted "bathroom."

So maybe "Hells yeah, bitch" can mean that, as well?

What's wrong?

Is the board an "epic fail"?

Oh. What's that?

[Students cheering]

But first, I know all you juniors and seniors are excited

about tonight's bonfire!

[Students cheering]

I also know you're all committed

to making Lafayette an inclusive school

in which everyone is treated equally.

[Students cheering]

Which is why, out of sensitivity

to a student who I will not name,

the beach bonfire has been canceled.

Boy: What'd she say?

Girl: Come on!

Uh, did everyone cheer for that last part? I couldn't hear.

What did you do, Mrs. DiMeo?

The only thing I could do.

You seemed so sad because everyone could go but you.

"I didn't E-X-pect you to cancel Kylie Jenner," I mean "it."

I hate this new board.

I don't know why it's such a big deal.

Back at your old special-ed schools,

I got things canceled all the time.

All the moms did. We took turns.

Blind mom canceled movie night.

Deaf mom canceled jazz band.

There were never any events, and everyone was happy.

Well, you know, if you're upset I got it canceled, I'll fix it.

No, no! You don't have to.

Bryan Keefer's about to break up with his girlfriend!

That'll distract everyone!

DiMeo, what gives?

Yeah, you're so off, Dylan. No trash talk?

You didn't spit at any of us. What happened?

We're worried about you.

I'm really sorry, guys.

It's just... my world collapsed today, literally.

- That means, like, "a lot," right? - Yep.

I mean, I thought I ran because I loved it,

but it turns out I don't.

I do it because my brother can't.

Why do you guys run?

Why? Because it's fun.

I mean, I guess on some level

it's because my dad's an Olympic runner.

And since the divorce,

the only time I see him is when he comes to my meets.

Maybe.

Girl: I definitely run because it's fun.

Of course, when I was 5,

I did fall into the lion habitat at the zoo.

And every night in my dreams, the lions chase me and eat me.

So it's more the lions than the fun.

I think so, yeah.

Yeah, it's more the lions.

Girl #2: I run for the feeling.

It's pain.

But I deserve it.

Yikes.

Oh, okay. Mm-hmm.

Uh, I just think it's kind of unfortunate

that the best activity of the year

got ruined to accommodate one student.

Well, he didn't want to cancel it.

Kenneth, we don't attack, we listen.

Thank you, Kayla. Who else feels this way?

Yes, Tommy.

Next?

Zach: Look, no one's mad at JJ.

He just wants to have the same high school experience

- as the rest of us. - Dude's a class act.

But if anyone else got it canceled, we'd be mad at them.

So isn't it demeaning to JJ to not blame him?

Holy crap, that's evolved.

Girl: Yeah, he's right.

We should respect JJ as our equal

and be mad at him.

Mm-hmm. That is right.

And in that spirit of respect, what might you say to him?

"Screw you for ruining everything"?

Zach: "For someone who doesn't walk,

you sure do trample on our rights."

So articulate.

How is your homework always so bad?
