We need to call it, right?

I think so too.

-Hey. Hey, hey. -What?

Hey.

They're sleeping.

I know. Do you think that--

Should I pack a bag and check into a hotel?

No, no. That's dramatic. What?

No, I know, just with the...

-Or I could-- -What?

I could make up a bed down on the couch too,

-if that's gonna be... -No, no, no.

-Really? -That's not necessary.

Let's just...

-Okay, what-- -Oh...

-Hey, buddy, -TESS: Hey. Hey, buddy.

-What are you doing up? -Are you guys fighting?

-No. -No. No, no, no.

No, actually, we're not-- we're not fighting at all.

We never fight.

That's true.

Go back to bed, baby, okay?

Come here, Charlie. Come on. Outside.

Come on, Charlie. Charlie, come.

Come on, Charlie, let's go.

-Our last hurrah. -What?

-You know, just with the-- -Yeah, yeah.

The other day, we were watching this, like,

just one of those doomsday docs, right?

You know, meteors, the Earth, wars,

-everything, all that stuff. -Uh-huh.

And so, you know, he had

the weirdest look on his face.

And at the end of the doc, I looked at him,

and I said, you know,

"How do you feel about that? Does that bother you? Does it--"

You know, fully expecting him to be like,

"Hey, what-- What do we do about this?"

Nothing.

He's perfectly fine with the world coming to an end.

He literally said,

"Well, you know, I've had a good life up until now.

What's there to be sad about?"

Jalen, my 17-year-old boy.

First of all, he's brilliant, right?

He excels at everything he puts his mind to.

But I just thought, "What kind of mindset is that?"

My body does not say it, but I still feel...

like I'm 24 years old, at best.

Thank you, babe. Shut up, Stephen.

But, you know, seriously, though.

I'm not ready for shit to end, right?

-Are you? No? -No.

Well, because he lives in a world with the likelihood

that we may blow ourselves up at any moment.

What?

But that's nothing new.

We all grew up during the Cold War.

Guys, it isn't that.

Yeah, but remember, we were scared.

It's not that. He's alive.

You know? He just goes.

He goes for it every day. He crushes it every day.

-That's true. -Mm. Yeah.

And he's in joy because of it.

How 'bout joy?

I mean, it's beautiful.

Not giving a fuck about trying to be like other people

or trying to be a grown-up.

Uh! Fuck!

Wait, are you talking about me?

No, somebody alive!

-Shit. -Jesus.

-I was joking! -Also dead.

Just joking.

You are so alive, darling.

-Hey, I found it! -"Darling"?

Yes.

-Oh, shit! -Oh, my God!

-Oh, my gosh. -Are you all right?

You all right?

Oh, my God. Are you okay?

-Oh, the rug. I'm sorry-- -Fuck. What the absolute fuck?

-Balls! -I'm sorry!

I'll go. No, no, no, it's okay.

-No, no! There's milk in it! -I'll get more. I'll get more.

-Balls. No. -It's right around the corner.

-She doesn't need it. -Stay, it's fine.

-It's like every week. -I'm sorry. Sorry.

God.

Don't cry over spilled oat milk, okay?

Yeah, this is fine for you.

-Jesus. -Oh, my God.

-It's literally everyday. -Balls, it's perfect.

-Thank you. -You all right?

Uh, yeah. I'm a little... I'm just, like, a little nervous.

-Yeah, you seem it. -'Cause, uh...

one of the guys is, uh...

not gonna be there next Saturday matinee,

so if you wanna come...

Oh, wow. Shit. Do you know all his lines?

His lines? Yeah, I know all the disciples' lines.

-Of Christ? -Yeah.

I'm just so grateful I can grow such a hefty beard.

You know what I mean? Do I look like a disciple?

-Babe, what? What? -Am I doing it wrong? I'm sorry.

No? I'm sorry.

-Oh, my God. -This always happens.

Half of me is always living in the play.

-Jesus. -Yeah.

It's the burden of my beautiful wife.

Oh, God.

You got it, St. Paul.

Mm. Living with an artist, guys. Living with an artist.

By the way, Oyster Bay?

-Yeah? -We call the primary.

Wait, you can't call it this far out.

Yes, we just did actually.

Why not? Let them.

What do you mean? It's not forever.

Let them. Babe, they're literally newlyweds.

Plus, y'all two always take the love shack attic anyway.

It's actually perfect. I love it.

-Hey, you wanna know why? -Yeah.

Because we made Jalen there.

We're not making any more babies.

-Yeah. -No.

Well, you never know-- Oh no, that's true.

You didn't even make your first two that way, right?

Okay, wow.

-Dude. -That's enough.

-No, please. Babe, stop, stop. -All right. It's okay.

-No, but you have to have sex. -Please stop talking.

Okay. Sorry, sorry.

We have sex, we just didn't--

You know what, you guys,

maybe we should just kinda wrap this thing up?

Wait, you did have sex to make--?

Yeah, yeah. You know what? We gotta--

That's too much gardening for you, please.

I thought that they put it-- No, I thought you created a zygote.

-I'm so tired. -Christine.

-What? -You baking your cookies?

Oh, um...

Why? Why? Does it smell like cookies?

Mm-hmm.

Really?

No, I just-- I think my kitchen

just always smells like that. You know?

And you know what? Also, I was heating the food in the oven.

Do you want dessert?

-We called an Uber. -We have fortune cookies.

Do you remember Macaulay Culkin?

When they came back, he was changed forever.

-And I believed it. -Babe. Let's walk them out.

You asked her about it specifically?

Yeah. She lied.

Oh...

She was hiding 'em till after we'd all gone.

When they get even higher as fuck. Right?

And Christine, when she's not high?

-So grumpy. -Ugh.

Good thing we didn't tell 'em.

Would've been too much for them to take.

Maybe I laid it on a little too thick.

Too thick?

What?

Why, 'cause one time you called me darling?

That's like...

I mean, if that's your idea

of laying it on too thick, I mean, that's--

Okay, okay!

You took one?

Fuck yeah.

When I went to the bathroom, I was stealing it.

It's gonna make you really fucking high.

That's the idea.

Mm.

Fuck it.

You ate more than I did.

Oh shit, that was probably really stupid.

I love it.

Oh, my God.

Wait. What are you doing?

Oh, my God. What am I doing?

Sorry. Shit.

Oh!

Shit.

Hey. Hey!

You okay?

Are you gonna be okay?

-I think so. -Yeah?

You're okay?

Yeah. The cookie hasn't hit me yet.

I'm gonna be okay.

I'll be okay.

Holy shit.

What's up?

I just wanna come in and get a drink.

Yeah, 15 buck cover.

-To get a drink? -It's comedy.

Is it funny?

It's 15 bucks, man.

Yeah, you already said that.

Look, man, I don't have any money on me.

Yeah, I don't know what to tell you.

-Hey. -Yo.

-Good luck. -Thank you.

How come she didn't have to pay 15 bucks?

She put her name down.

Well, you're welcome.

All right. Alex Novak, downstairs in two minutes.

That's me.

Well, you better head down there, then.

-Where? -Just straight behind you.

Down the stairs.

Hey, hey. Hey.

Why don't you leave that right over there with the other ones?

-Right here? -Yeah. They'll watch it.

Okay.

Oh, my God. It's completely different.

Like, you cannot have casual sex with a woman.

Okay? You can't do it.

You have to buy her dinner, um, at least.

With men, I am the dinner.

It's easy. It's easy. It's simple. It's simple.

-Sorry. -What up, man?

-They called me. -Yeah.

When you see the light, just get off, all right?

There you go. Just talk to 'em, have fun.

...orgasm from a man who embarrasses you.

No, I'm leaving. I'm leaving. I'm going.

Okay.

That's Rolo, everybody! That was really funny.

Alrighty, I got a lot of familiar names on here,

but I'm gonna shake it up a bit.

Uh, let's put your hands together for Alec Novak?

Alec Novak.

Alec Novak, everybody.

Alec!

Um...

I don't have a ton of jokes.

And, uh...

Actually my name is Alex Novak, uh, for that lady.

It's okay.

My parents won't be mad.

Um...

What do I tell ya?

Um...

I think I'm getting a divorce.

Yeah.

What tipped me off was that, uh,

I'm living, um, in an apartment on my own.

Yeah.

And my wife and kids don't live there. So...

That was probably the-- the biggest clue.

Um...

I was, uh... Well, I was married for 20 years.

Yeah.

Uh, engaged-- Uh, engaged for two years.

Dated for three.

And... met a year before that.

So, 26 years.

Which makes sense...

now, because my wife used to say being married to me

was like running a marathon.

I don't really know what happened, um...

to my marriage. Uh...

I came home one day, um... and my...

I guess, still wife, but...

Uh, Tess was her name.

Her name is still Tess.

I plan on, uh, letting her keep that in the divorce.

Um...

Yeah, I-- I came home, and, um...

there was a conversation, I remember, and somebody said...

It, um... "Should we end this thing?"

And then there was an agreement.

Um, I'm pretty sure she said--

This is what she meant about not paying attention.

Yeah, she-- I came home.

And, uh...

I guess we both agreed it was over.

Which is awesome... that at least we agreed on that.

It was less awesome for our two kids.

Yeah.

It's okay. They're ten.

The-- They're not-- They're not twins.

They're Irish twins.

Which is...

...why I pulled an Irish goodbye when I left.

Oh, come on.

I thought you guys told--

I thought this was a comedy...

...show.

Anyway, um...

I think I earned my keep here. Um...

What do I say? My name's Alex.

Alex Novak, everybody.

Sorry. Is there a bathroom here?

Wow. All right, let's hear it for Jill McKenzie.

There she is. There she is.

Keep it going for Kemp, you guys. Kemp rules.

What's up?

The side part is the skinny part. Agreed?

Now, the skinny part, the side part-- same part.

Same size, same part. You know what I'm talking about?

You take it out and--

♪ Allez, allez, allez ♪

♪ Allez, allez, allez ♪

You have to favor a labia?

♪ We've conquered All of Europe ♪

♪ We're never gonna stop ♪

♪ Allez, allez, allez ♪

♪ Allez, allez, allez ♪

because she wants me to feel good.

Like, for instance, she's like a hot girl.

You know what I mean? Like, she has the vagina

that fits the little underwear, okay?

She goes... And she...

What was the advice she gave me?

Oh, she said, "Boundaries?"

You guys know about these boundaries?

You guys talk about these boundaries?

-She goes... -First time?

She goes, um, "You need to learn how to set boundaries."

Yeah.

Stick around. Support your fellow comics.

"I told my boyfriend he has to text me

every night before bed,

'Goodnight, I love you' or it's over."

And she goes, "Now, he texts me every night before bed,

'Goodnight, I love you.' And now everything's great."

And I was like, "Oh, thank-- thank you. Thanks."

If I said that to any man I've ever dated, they would be like,

"Oh, perfect. I was on the fence anyway.

Get the fuck outta here, bitch."

You know what, I'm not fucking calling in favors.

With me in a relationship, it's me going, "No, dude."

I... I gotta date better men. I have to.

My girlfriends are dating men who are, like,

running 10Ks on the weekends for fun.

My ex wouldn't let me touch his Magic: The Gathering cards

'cause he was worried that I would bend them.

They didn't say nothing about my sister's new ass.

Not even a warning.

Just a warning would have been nice.

Something. Anything.

"Hey Reggie, go in the kitchen.

Meg Thee Stallion is in there."

Now, I don't feel bad for looking at my sister's new butt.

...on PS5. Kung fu game.

Got it right now?

So, what happens now?

Between, you know, Mom and you?

What do you mean?

Well, you know, you guys told us that you separated?

Yeah.

Does that mean you're going to get divorced?

Well, I...

-Remember that dragon? -What dragon?

At the... at the assembly.

The school assembly. The big red dragon.

You mean the lion?

Was it a lion? Looked like a dragon.

It only had two people in it.

Huh.

What does a dragon have to do with anything?

-It was a lion. -Whatever it was,

-lion or dragon. -Lion.

It was big and it was brave,

and that's what I need you guys to be.

That's not it at all.

The lion chews up the lettuce,

and that brings us wealth and prosperity for the new year.

Right. That's it. That's exactly it. Right.

Are you going to feed the lion, Dad?

Me? I don't know, I...

Are you?

I fed it because I have goals this year I want to achieve.

Do you have goals, Dad?

No, of course I do. Of course--

-Dad, you should have goals. -We have goals.

Good night, guys.

-Settle in. -Dad--

Settle in. All right.

-Love you. -Love you, too.

Get down there. Get down there.

All right, you guys. Good night, guys.

-No talking, all right, guys? -Okay.

I haven't told your father.

What?

Entre nous.

No, Mom, there is no entre nous. We don't have any secrets.

The boys know everything. You don't have to whisper.

Well, you don't have to embarrass me.

I just told you your father doesn't know.

-Okay-- -What doesn't Grandpa know?

That Mom and I are splitting up.

Oh.

Think you should tell him, Dada.

-Great. -Yes, son, that's up to you.

It's got nothing to do with me.

Yeah, well tell that to our marriage.

Look how you're going on.

And stop being jealous of my friendship with Tess.

I adore her. I love her so much.

-Dad! Dad? -Yeah. I know it. What?

-And you know something? -Dad!

Look, you two have always been very different.

Yeah, and you and Dad are twins?

Dad? Dad?

Your father is an immigrant to this country.

-I know that. -And I've always been a woman

who wants the taste of the exotic.

-And that's what makes it work. -Mom! Jesus, Mom.

I'm just saying this in front of the children...

Can I have another apple juice?

-I already said no. -...because there's no secrets,

-so... Just pick a lane, okay? -I know.

-Why not? -For crying out loud.

Felix, it's your turn.

Mom, do you have any...

Do you have any more of those juice boxes?

Your father drank them all.

It's got little pretzels on it.

They're all individual pretzels?

They all started individual,

and then I, uh, glued most of them together.

Oh, oh.

There's one or two separate.

And you have the mustard and the ketchup there, too.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

But the guy's got the day off.

You know?

He's got the day off like the rest of the town.

Everybody's taking today off.

She thinks I don't know, but I know.

Here, put that there.

And, uh...

For me, it's no big deal.

Well, it is kind of a big deal, Dad.

I think that we're gonna get divorced.

Ah, okay. Slow down.

Slow down.

Clean your plates everyone.

Grandma, do you have any Jell-O?

-In the fridge. -Okay.

That's not what's going on. Nobody cheated.

Yeah, well, so what is the problem then?

I don't know, it's...

...complicated.

It's complicated.

You don't have to tell me that.

Is Dada going to be okay?

Of course. What do you mean?

I don't know, he's just out there. On his own.

But he's not alone.

He loves when you boys stay with him.

-But he sleeps on the couch. -Huh?

We sleep in his bed.

Yeah, it's awesome.

Great.

For fuck's sake.

Hey there, I'm Alex Novak.

How you doing tonight?

Once again I didn't want to pay the 15 bucks,

so... here I am.

No, I'm joking, and...

No, no, no, I'm joking. I, uh...

I didn't pay last time, but I was willing to pay this time,

but I wanted to, uh...

I said, uh, I wanted to have fun.

Wanted to have fun here tonight.

Anybody else wanna have fun?

Yeah?

You know, I recently got fired.

It's the fucking fifth time I've been fired.

I've only had three jobs.

That means I've gotten fired from two jobs fucking twice.

Funny how things change...

Bathroom's straight down and to the right.

No, I think I'm next on the...

How things become cool and uncool.

They called my name.

I drive a Tesla.

And, um...

I just have one question.

Can you stop keying my fucking car?

So, a couple months into it,

they bring my folks in for like a parent's day.

They kind of catch them up on our progress, you know?

I'm-- I'm a teenager at this point and, uh...

So they come in and, and Pete says, you know,

"Alex has been great.

He's opened up, and this is what's going on,

and this is how he feels about this

and this dynamic that's going on at home."

My parents just kind of listen.

We're driving home, little while later.

And I remember this so clearly.

I was in the back seat of my mom's station wagon.

But my dad was driving. Doesn't matter.

If my Dad was in the car, he was always driving,

even though it was my mom's station wagon.

And I remember her being in the passenger seat

and spinning around, and looking at me and saying,

"How dare you tell this stranger all our family secrets."

And I was like, "You made go talk to the guy.

You literally paid the guy to listen to the problem.

You set this up. You drove me there."

That's insane.

That would be like...

That would be like-- That'd be like your partner

driving you to an orgy...

...and then saying,

"I can't believe you fucked all those people."

"That was the point of being there in the--

You knew where I was going. I was naked in the car."

Anyway, uh, this is, uh...

Boy, this is starting to actually get good

and now my time is up.

This is so awesome. I will see you next time.

Same place. I'm coming back. We'll meet here, all right?

We'll all meet here. All right, I've been Alex Novak.

Thank you so much.

Sad guy, you hanging out?

Everyone's hanging out in the back booth to the right.

We got some actually funny people

-coming to the stage next. -Okay, thank you.

Good. It takes the pressure off.

That's how I feel about my dog.

Hey.

-Cool to sit down here? -Yeah.

-Look who's back. -Just talked to Rolo upstairs.

Hey, I remember you from my-- Yeah.

-What up? Dan. What up? -Alex.

How'd it go? I'm surprised you back.

-Really? -Yeah.

-That bad? -Yeah, I mean...

-It wasn't bad. -It wasn't.

-What do you even do? -Just say it.

-He's gonna ask for a job. -Come on, what is it?

I work in finance.

If you wanna do it again, I'll tell you the website.

Just DM me.

-All right. -Yeah. Just...

All the mics in the city, badsaliva.com.

And just, keep going up.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. You gotta go up five, six times a week.

-Yeah. -Five or six times?

No, sometimes we go five a night.

On long nights, yeah.

If you have like a bit you wanna work out,

you go five times by the end of the night.

You got a spot. Five minutes around the corner.

-I'm Alex. -Lovely.

That's the manager, and this is the one--

-Oh. -So, yeah, I have--

Don't make eye contact with her. Jesus.

-Yeah, look down. -Shut up.

-I have four rooms. -Sorry.

You can see downstairs where you just were.

Yeah.

Stop showing off in front of your friend

with Laverne and Shirley back there.

Fuck you!

-We got jobs. -I'm Laverne. I'm Laverne.

What's your name again?

-Alex. -Alex, come here.

-Hey man, that's my white slave. -Shut up.

You can have him. Take him.

Come talk to some real comedians.

What's up, man?

Yo, you hold my pocket when we leave.

You can't treat comedy like prison, man, Dan.

He's Scared Straight -ing him.

-Dan, don't Scared Straight him. -He's scared straight.

He's scared white.

You gonna be all right. How often are you getting up?

I don't know, man. Tonight was my second time.

I put it to you like, my pop used to let me

watch Def Jam when I was six,

but he would act like he was telling me not to watch it.

"Hey, me and your stepmom are watchin' the program.

It's on HBO. Go upstairs and watch something else."

And then wink at me. And I'll be like, "Oh, shit."

I actually got caught by my dad.

I was trying to watch porn.

You know, like, the, the late night HBO,

the Taxicab Confessions or whatever.

-Oh, yeah. Real Sex. -I was trying to watch porn,

and it was Def Comedy Jam, and I saw Greer Barnes on stage

doing a joke about Mike Tyson and Arnold Schwarzenegger

sharing a jail cell together.

I was dying laughing,

and I asked my dad, I was like, "Is that a job?"

And he was like, "Yeah. You gotta go to college first."

-Been doing jokes ever since. -Gotta get up everyday.

Open that diary, Anne Frank. Get to it.

What? What's wrong?

You guys just write stuff down all day?

I said to open up his diary if he gonna write any jokes.

-You gotta write. -Work on your craft.

You gotta write.

Just-- I was just watching CNN, and they say it's official,

according to scientists...

No. According to scientists, it's official,

guys get hotter with age.

Big win.

Then we convinced them, you know what's really hot?

Dad bods.

You kiddin' me? We're on a roll.

It's like, we're playing with house money now.

What else-- What else can we get away with?

You know what's super hot? Being poor.

-He stole it. -You can't take--

-Hello. Good morning. Hi. -He doesn't even need it.

-Hey. Hi. -Hey.

Hey. Look who's here?

-Hi, guys! Hi! Hi, guys. -Dad?

I thought Mom was taking us to school.

-Yeah, me too. -Yeah, I know.

But maybe there's a surprise outside

and maybe this has something to do with it.

Is that a new car?

I don't know if the term "car"

really does it any kind of justice.

-Alex. -Let's go. It's right outside.

Let's go, let's go, let's go. Come check it out.

Hold on! We're eating breakfast here.

Come on, here we go.

-This is sick. -Look at that!

Oh, wait, wait, wait.

-Hey! Hold on a second! -Whoa, this is cool.

-Hang on. Let me get your mom. -Whoa. This is cool.

-What? What did you do? -I am gonna immortalize

the first moment that you lay eyes on this beauty.

This is not how it's gonna work.

Look at this thing. This gives you the morning off.

From what? The morning off from what?

I don't know. The Olympics are here in two years.

What?

Who knows what you're capable of?

-What did you say? -All right.

The fucking Olympics? Does he think that's funny?

Fuck him.

I mean, does he think this is about me?

No, 'cause it's not.

No, he didn't say it. He never says anything.

I mean, isn't that typical?

My God, you should know, you're his mom!

Marilyn!

-Hey. -I rang the doorbell.

I hate the phone.

I just wanted to see you.

-Come inside. You're sweet. -No, no, no.

Jan doesn't even know I left the house.

I gotta get right back.

-Okay. -I just...

You're both in shock.

-Yeah. -That's all.

It's okay.

And I just wanted to tell you one thing.

-Okay. -Well, two things.

One...

Give yourself the grace...

to feel what you feel.

Unfiltered.

And number two...

The Olympics are here in two years.

Oh, my God.

Marilyn, fuck you!

-But I get it. -Do you?

I get it.

I think so. Come here.

Are you gonna start fucking?

Immediately.

Yes!

New dick. That's what you need.

Some new deep dickin' too.

No pity fucks.

Maybe that's what you need.

It's like the one good thing Balls and I have left.

Really?

Y'all ever fuck sober?

No. I hate him too much to be able to do that.

Well, that's a red flag.

No duh.

Hey.

I'm gonna play for a club team, again.

And I've been reaching out to people about coaching.

-I just worry. -About what?

Look, you have a full life.

You're not defined by this one amazing thing you did.

So, I just hope...

that enough time has passed that you can re-enter this world,

without giving it too much meaning.

Yeah, but I'm not gonna be able to do that

now that you said it out loud.

I'm just reminding you, babe,

you have done other amazing things.

Like?

Like being a mother.

Like this house.

I don't give a fuck about volleyball. You're great.

Come on, puppies.

Come on, babies.

Come on, Charlie. Charlie, come to me.

Come, Charlie. Yeah.

Yes, baby.

Come on. Come on.

Yeah.

-Don't move. -Hi, Mom.

-Hey. -Are you lice free yet?

-Yeah, I mean, I got it, but... -Mom. Mom, mom, mom!

This guy's good. I'm just checking this guy.

We're probably gonna have to check each other.

-He's gonna give you lice. -Ew, that's disgusting.

I gotta see if we...

I can't tell if that's dandruff or...

You got some more paper towels?

I do have more paper towels. Just did a Costco run.

There should some in the bedroom in the back.

All right.

-Dad, why do you have-- -See what I mean?

Why are they in a doctor's office?

So, you... using our old armoire?

Yeah, I took it out of storage until I get some more furniture.

Why, you want me to put it back?

Immediately.

No, it's just that hadn't talked about that kind of stuff.

Yeah. Sorry. Probably should have asked first.

It's fine.

So, what do you think about your new style?

You know what, I gotta get more paper towels.

I think we should just go with this.

-All the time. -Don't move. Don't move.

-All right? -Don't move.

You're lice-free, and we'll just keep this look.

I think I might have lice.

Hmm.

Any-- Aren't you seeing it jump off me? Why are you--

Yeah, let's get you in the chair.

I think that's what we gotta do.

Yeah, you look-- One just crawled in between--

-No-- -Mom's pregnant.

-You are so pregnant. -What?

You hooked up with a bug.

-All right, guys, enough. -Guys.

But Dad, that's how you said you get lice.

-Yeah... yeah. -Oh, is that how you said it?

No. It's bec-- It was a joke, because the video said

we're looking for baby eggs, all right?

It was a joke.

-Did you hook up with a bug? -No.

-Well, you've got lice so... -Yeah, you did.

-You hooked up with a bug -You promised not to tell them.

-You have lice, too. -Yeah, sorry. I couldn't resist.

All right, you know what? You guys need to rehearse.

-Let's go. Let's go. -Okay.

-Get busy. -I already know it.

-Keep the volume down, too. -Turn the volume up? Okay.

No, not up. Keep the volume down.

Dad, do you know where the loudspeaker is?

I'm serious about the volume

So you're really not seeing anything?

-There's no little bites or... -I don't think so.

To be honest, just looking--

Now, it's making me itch. I think I--

I must have it. Would you check me?

Sure.

You can get like little bites or...

Yeah, make sure to really check.

Yeah.

"Under Pressure"?

Oh. That's what that is.

You didn't recognize it?

No. The first 40 million times I didn't recognize it.

They're obsessed.

It's all they talk about.

That performance is so far from now too.

I wonder where they get their work ethic from.

Mm. Poor boys.

Just check one more in here.

I'm gonna dip my toe into the coaching world.

Is that why you were in the city?

No. I was in the city 'cause you called me.

Oh. I just figured you were in the city,

because you said you'd come right over.

Yeah. I wanted to see the halfway house

our kids are living in part time.

I'm glad you got the vibe that I'm going for.

Yeah, you did great.

I haven't talked to any programs yet, just...

I think that's great.

Any program would die to have you, I'm sure.

Yeah.

I think it's great, too.

Um, I think you're good.

Good. Okay.

Do you wanna take a shower with--

and rinse off with some of that special shampoo?

Oh, oh...

-Might as well. -Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Bathroom's right down there on the left.

You got this.

So I read that the number one

fantasy for guys...

-Can I help you? -Hey, man.

Yeah, I'm here for the open mic.

Yeah, right here. Just write your name down there.

Okay.

You're next.

-I'm next? -Yup, be ready.

Fuck.

I'm getting the light, so I gotta go.

Oh, the light. The light.

The light. Yeah, the light.

Ladies and gentlemen...

-Yo, man. What's up? -Hey.

I was actually hoping that I could just,

you know, watch and hang tonight?

-Yeah. -Yeah? I got 15 bucks on me.

Nah. Keep your 15 bucks. Get yourself something nice.

-Go on in. -Thanks, man.

You got it-- Just... Yeah, just finish that before you go in.

-Finish it? -Yeah.

-Hey. -Hey.

-There he is. -Make yourself comfortable.

Am I okay here?

-Yeah. No one's sittin' here. -You're fine.

How was your night?

It was pretty good.

I went and did a different open mic and...

Yeah.

You know, I've been doing this for 25 years.

You know what I mean? And I love it.

I wouldn't wanna be anywhere else.

But what I like about you is you're so innocent.

You're not naive, you're innocent.

And that's why it works.

So that's good. It comes outta your head,

you put it on a piece of paper, and you get up there.

It's like therapy. But, people can relate to that.

-I don't know what it is. -You don't know anything.

But I just do know that coming here

-has ended up making me feel... -Yeah. It's a safe space.

-Well, a lot better. -Yeah.

You are good-- I mean, you're bad at stand-up,

but you're good.

You have a good heart. You seem like a pure...

like I believe you that you just found this thing,

and now you're in love with stand-up.

Other than the fact that I'm really insulted, thank you.

But you're bad. You're really bad.

Okay.

So I was waxing. It didn't hurt, right?

And then she finished really quickly,

like I didn't even know what happened.

And I was like, she goes, "Your triangle's done." Okay.

"Your triangle's done."

What she gave me...

Okay, wait. Can I use your napkin?

What I was expecting was this.

This is what, what I was expecting. Okay?

You see this? Reasonable. Reasonable.

What she gave me...

...is this.

-It is ridi-- Look at this. -No!

Look at what I'm showing you.

I'm not-- This is not-- It is tiny.

Well, I brought my drink up. Um...

-It's okay. -Is that all right?

Hang on. Do you guys mind? I'm gonna put this right here.

Use it!

You okay? I'm watching it, all right? So, don't--

Oh, please roofie me.

Oh.

Please, I'd love to get roofie'd tonight.

Please!

Hey, is it true that you do magic? Is that a true story?

Yes. That is my day job.

One of my kids, he's obsessed with-with magic.

-Oh, no. -Yeah, his birthday's coming up,

and his mom's doing this thing,

and I want to kinda add something to it.

Would you ever consider doing something like that? Is that...?

-Uh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. -Yeah?

-I'd be down. Sure. -Okay.

The driveway's okay?

Okay in front of the driveway. They're not going anywhere.

Shit doesn't even look gold.

I should have picked the balloons.

What?

-Hey! -Hey. Hey.

What are you doing out here? The door was open.

I didn't know what the protocol was.

What? Get in here.

You guys all right?

Wow.

-It's gonna be so good. -You really went all out.

Hey, will you help me actually put some more food out?

Crudités in the fridge.

-There's two of 'em. -Okay.

I just really need the carrots

because they have not touched one vegetable.

Hi, buddy. Oh, hey. Hi, hi, hi. You having fun?

-Yeah. -Yeah? How's the magician?

-Good. -Yeah?

Your father's sorry he couldn't make it.

-He's on one of his walks. -Okay.

Hey! There he is.

Hey, Charlie doesn't like to be picked up.

Is that his name?

Yeah. Did you really not know Charlie's name?

No.

-After all this time? -Dude, you look so good.

-For real? -Yeah, yeah.

Is that-- You look-- Did you lose weight?

Is that a new sweater?

Honestly, no, I've had this sweater for...

Well, you should keep wearing it.

It's the guilt eating away at you, I'm sure.

-The guilt? -Christine.

-What? -Don't say that.

What?

Guilt about what? What are you talking about, Christine?

Is that your name?

Christine, have I done something to offend you?

Because if I have, or like upset you or something, then I'm--

No, no, no. You know what? Forget it.

I'm not going to Oyster Bay.

Don't apologize to me. What?

-Guys. -Why not?

-It's a birthday party. -Because.

Go! Run, run, run!

Go Judey, go Judey, go Jude!

Oh, you got my... She got my...

You're gonna be part of this trick, okay?

-All right. -Can all three of us do it?

-Yeah. -Yeah,

all three of you can do it. Okay.

-I think I took too much. -Honey. Oh.

I didn't... I didn't know I was holding the dog.

Well, this is pretty good.

I'm not the reason you're not coming to Oyster Bay, am I?

Oh, God, no. Not at all.

I mean, 'cause we can all go.

It doesn't have to be awkward. Right?

No... you mean like it is now?

Hey, sorry that I just kinda lost it earlier.

I felt really attacked by all those guys.

Yeah.

I mean, why are we even talking about Oyster Bay now at all?

-I know. -It's so far away.

-They're crazy. -Those guys,

you know they're psychos when it comes to planning.

Yes.

All I know is we made a couple wonderful boys.

Right?

Yeah.

♪ Happy birthday, dear Jude ♪

♪ Happy birthday to you ♪

-You got it all over you. -I know! I--

You got it all over you, too.

What does that have to do with, like, opening wine?

-Hi. -Hi.

Thank you so much for coming.

Thank you so much for having me.

You were awesome.

-Yeah, I really appreciate it. -The kids loved it.

-Hey, that was amazing. -Thank you. Thank you.

Oh. My balance is off.

-Nice to meet you. -You okay?

-This is my buddy. -Nice to meet you.

Balls.

-Balls? -Yeah.

Cool. Okay.

Happens every time.

Don't make my mom do that.

-What happens every time? -Nothin'.

Okay, what's the deal?

You mean with why you still have that beard

even though the play's been over for two months?

I can't choose when the character leaves me.

Characters, you mean.

Actually, I feel like maybe it's providing,

like, a new thing for casting directors,

now that I'm working again. Thank you for coming by the way.

Twice. I came twice.

And you didn't even go on the second time.

I know.

It's because that asshole Paul said he was gonna be sick

and then he showed up anyway.

But I was psyched because he got St. Paul sick,

and I went up for two weeks straight.

-It was amazing. -Yeah, that's a bonus.

And people said that I was, like...

-Yeah. -...better.

-Than him? -Yeah.

Yeah. I bet.

-I got recognized on the street. -Did you?

Somebody literally thought I was a disciple. It was great.

But I think maybe they were, like, a Jesus freak. But...

They're not a fan of the play necessarily.

Well, they saw the play a lot.

I think they saw the play almost all the two weeks that I did it.

So, I didn't really tell them that I was the understudy.

-But anyway, this is about you. -Right.

Don't fucking... Don't fucking change the subject.

Let me rephrase it.

What's the deal, man?

Yeah, I don't know what to tell you, man. There is no deal.

Okay.

You don't want to tell me her name?

All right.

If I tell you something, you promise you won't tell anybody?

No. Keep going. What's her name?

I've been doing stand-up.

Oh.

I don't know who that is.

That's a crazy handle. What? Is she famous?

No, no, no. Dude,

I've been doing stand-up comedy on stage downtown.

Okay.

What?

Is it like a hobby?

Well, I'm not about to quit my job and go on tour.

Okay.

Yeah. It's just, I-I mean, I love it, man.

It's great. I-- You know, it's actually pretty amazing.

And it's terrifying, but I love every aspect of it,

and it's something I look forward to.

-Fuck. -What?

I knew it.

Knew what?

Just like...

You've always been the funniest guy in the room forever, right?

Ever since college,

and now that you're actually fucking pursuing it...

I'm not pursing anything.

You're gonna kill it. It's inevitable.

And it kills me that I hate it so much because I-I have...

...always gotten comfort

in knowing that you settled.

That you're a settler.

And I-I'm the guy who...

Even though, you know, is going for it. That's my thing.

Jesus, Balls.

I know. It's been a lot for me to carry around.

Just so nothing gets misconstrued,

I don't have a girlfriend.

-Oh, you do whatever you want. -I don't.

Look, it doesn't matter.

You don't have to justify yourself.

You're famous now, anyway. So, whatevs.

What are you talking about, man?

Look, you don't have to justify yourself.

Listen to me. To anybody.

Not to Tess, not to anybody.

Just like Tess doesn't have to justify herself to you.

Justify what?

Nothing.

-Is Tess seeing someone? -No.

I mean, is she open to it?

I wouldn't know. I don't think so.

But is she? Yeah. Maybe.

Did Christine say something?

Who?

Christine?

Ab-About what?

About Tess seeing somebody.

No. Did she?

I'm asking you.

-What are you-- -Well, did you hear anything?

What did Christine say about it?

What did she say?

Dude, I'm asking you.

Hey, Olga? I just put a bunch of trash there.

-Is there anything else? -No. All good. Thank you.

Good. Okay. Thank you.

Hey.

-Yeah? -Are you leaving?

I was just finishing cleaning up.

Yeah, I-I gotta go.

How you doing?

All right.

Oh, man. I'm Alex.

How's everybody feeling tonight?

Good. I'm feeling pretty good.

I, uh-- I'm recently separated from my wife.

No. Oh, thank you.

And, uh, I think that she's maybe seeing someone.

Yeah, I just found out the possibility

that she's seeing someone,

and I'm handling it just fine, I think.

Right? And, uh...

So I just made up a list of, uh...

possible worst case scenarios, which I think is really healthy.

Number one.

This guy is a radiologist.

Because that would mean he's knowledgeable,

he's noble, and he makes a ton of money.

Terrible. So, that's number one. Number two. He surfs.

Because surfing is so fucking cool,

and those guys seem like they're really cool,

and that they, like, can do anything,

and they drive old trucks.

You know, and they don't care, they never wear shoes.

And, uh, they never met a jar they couldn't open.

You know what I mean?

And they don't need to cut their hair, or do anything.

And they're always suntanned. Um...

And they look like they got really strong forearms,

you know?

Which is, thinking about, um,

someone you love, like a lady you love,

with a guy with really strong forearms.

Uh, my forearms are basically atrophied. Um...

No, that's not true. I actually do work out a fair bit.

I've got, um, what I would describe as, um,

and a lot of ladies would describe, as a dad bod.

By the way, it occurs to me that men have done a really good job

of convincing women that dad bods are a good thing.

You know? Like, we go, like, "Oh, he's got a dad bod."

We're like, "Okay." It's like we all got together and conspired.

You know what I mean? Anyway.

Um...

So, yeah, so... radiologist, surfer.

Nightmare if he was a surfing radiologist.

Because that would be... that would be...

It would, like-- Like, what, he's gonna pull up to my house

with his dumb, beautiful Porsche.

Um, and take her out on-- on a date?

I mean...

Jill, this is where I got stuck.

Keep-- Keep going?

Yeah, I don't... Okay.

This is the...

What did I write on my thing after...?

You wrote--

What did I say after I take them, uh...

I take them on a date?

It's right there on the thing.

It says "I have small penis."

It does not say I have a small penis!

"I have a very small penis."

Oh, I follow them.

I follow them. I follow them. Thank you very much.

-You're welcome. -That's my friend Jill

who's very helpful, um...

By the way, if I had a small penis,

I wouldn't need to remind myself.

I feel like I would, um...

By the way, I don't.

Anyway.

I don't know. Uh...

And...

So, anyway...

I-I left you a little something.

Just to for you to remember to have confidence.

The folder is unacceptable. Bright yellow?

Why? This is where I keep everything organized.

It's just, "I'm a dad coming to--" We don't do that.

We have it in here, like adults.

I like the way that you even wrote it in uppercase

just to make sure that it looks like I wrote it.

-Like a dude wrote it. -Yeah, yeah.

I embossed it. I matched your handwriting.

It's untraceable. To me.

I think we should fuck. I think we should fuck.

-You and me? -Yeah.

Is that crazy? I think we should fuck.

Is that crazy?

We're gonna fuck.

Are you a nurse?

No, I'm a comedian.

Are you a fucking nurse?

Don't let my cat out.

Jill?

And don't answer my buzzer.

I understand it now, so I'm good.

Same.

No, you don't understand it now, dude.

Yes, I do, anyways.

You guys gonna crush this "Under Pressure" thing or what?

-Gonna crush it. -You're screwing me up.

-Dad? -Yeah?

-Are you sad? -No. Why, do I look sad?

Hey! No, hey, hey. What the fuck, guys?

Sorry.

Guys, where'd you find this?

-By your bed. -By your bed.

Like where the stand is.

Okay. You're not supposed to touch other people's stuff.

But it was like, right on your side table.

-I know, I know, I know. -It's right where I sleep.

I know, but when peop--

It was right next to where we sleep.

I know, but when people leave stuff--

When it's other people's personal property

that's obviously their property,

you don't touch it, okay?

Like, that's just like a rule in life.

Yeah, but it's weird. Like, really weird.

Okay, I know. But it's just...

It's just a joke book, okay?

Jokes?

No, more like... just maybe...

jokes that I've been thinking about.

You know, like, like made up...

-funny stories. -They aren't funny, Dad.

You write about so much stuff, like... radio-ologist.

And surfer.

-What's a radio-ologist? -And talk about us and Mom.

I know, I know, but you guys-- you guys are real.

And me and your mom are real.

And the radiologist is made up. He's a kind of doctor.

And the surfer... The surfer's made up.

Those are just characters, okay? And-- and it's like, I'm...

It's like I'm making up stories, you know,

because a lot of stuff is changing.

Right? And it's-- and it's kind of a way to process it all.

-Do you know what I mean? -Mm-hmm.

Oh, no. Come on. Come on, come on. Hey, hey.

Hey, listen. Hey, hey.

No, listen, none of it's real.

That's all made-up stuff, okay?

Come on. Come on. It's just made up.

None of it's real life, really. Okay?

You know how sometimes you use your imagination...

to make up stories, you know? And games and stuff?

It's like that.

It's like the grown-up version of that.

And I'm-- I'm just--

I don't know what I'm doing.

But you can ask me anything

and I'll tell you the truth, okay?

Okay, but it's weird, Dad.

I know. Life's weird.

-Hey, Kemp. -Hey. I got a set for you.

O-Okay.

It's so weird.

-Like an open mic thing? -No, no, no, guest spot.

-Really? -Yep.

Wow. Okay.

-When? Is... -Tonight, 8:00.

-Tonight, as in today, tonight? -Yeah.

No, I don't know. I don't know if I can--

I don't know if I can really step-- step away.

No, no. Wait. Sorry. Sorry.

No, no, no. Wait. I'll do it. I'll do it.

Fuck it. I'll do it. I'll do it.

-Hey. Hey. -Hey.

What's going on? Is everything okay?

Yeah, everything's great. Everything's great.

Everything's good.

-Are the boys okay? -Yeah, the boys are great.

Hey, listen, do you mind

if I drop them off here for a couple hours?

-I know it's last minute, but-- -What the fuck?

No, no, I-- Listen, Tess, please--

Listen, don't ambush me like this in front of the boys

as though they can't come home whenever they want.

Like I'm trying to keep them from being inside?

Come on. That sucks.

-Look-- -You suck.

You suck!

-What the fuck? -Hey, where are you going?

You know, I got it covered.

-No, where are you going? -No, no, forget it. Forget it.

-Hey, Lucy! No! -Yeah. Good.

Let's go, Charlie, let's go!

-No, Charlie, stay! -No, I got 'em all.

-What? -I got it covered.

You don't even have leashes.

No, it's okay. I got my own leashes.

I got lots of leashes.

Okay.

-Hi, Grandma! -Puppy dogs!

-Hi, darlin's. -I'm sorry. Sorry about this.

I know it's last minute. Come on.

Please. I'm so happy that you thought of us.

Are you kidding? Who else would we think of?

-Please do not feed the dogs. -Hi, Grandpa.

Okay.

-Hey, Dad. Hi. Hey. -Hey, son. Hi.

No, no, no.

-I can't stay for dinner. -What?

-I gotta go back to the city. -Well, yes, you can.

It's not good to run around on an empty stomach.

Read between the lines, Marilyn. He's got a hot date.

-Dad, don't-- -Hot date?

-You can stay for a quick bite. -Dad has a hot date?

No, I can't stay for a quick bite.

-I gotta get back to the city. -Do you have any Jell-O?

I told you-- No, no, no. I have to go--

If you must know, I gotta get changed

and I'm going to a comedy club.

What? Well, you can go later.

You know, you want to go later,

because they usually put the guys

who ain't so funny at the beginning,

and then... so the pros look better later on.

No, I can't-- I can't be late because I'm...

-I'm one of the guys going up. -What?

I've been doing open mic nights.

-What's an open mic? -I just-- And, they--

I just got a call that one of the comics

who's emceeing at the club tonight,

they agreed to give me ten minutes on stage.

I'm one of the acts. One of the comedy acts.

-You? -Yeah, me.

Well-- so, I don't know-- What do you do, you tell jokes?

I mean, sort of. Well, kind of...

more like funny stories about my life.

-Oh, honey. -What's funny about your life?

I had no idea your life was so bad.

No, no, no, it's not so bad.

-This is why she threw you out! -What's funny about your life?

-She threw you out? -Nobody threw me out, guys.

No, I love her. Mom, what are you doing?

Nobody threw me out. Nobody threw me out.

-I left by mutual consent. -She threw you out?

No. Everybody knows that. I left by mutual consent.

And, by the way, I'm not in a bad place. I'm happy.

And doing this, it makes me feel good.

-You know? It helps. -How? How does it help

to have a roomful of people laughing at you?

-They're not laughing at me. -Son. Son.

And it's not bad to have them laugh.

Son, you know what this is? This is a mid-life crisis.

-That's what it is. -Oh, Dad...

So, why you... Just go get yourself a motorcycle.

I don't know. A leather jacket.

No. Dad, listen. I love you very much.

-I love you all. Love you guys. -Come on.

I will see you in the morning. Thank you so much.

Remember to pick us up on your new motorcycle!

Nobody's getting a motorcycle.

No, it is definitely not a date.

Because he has a wife, and he's had children.

They've been together for ages.

Yes, yes. Always just friends.

He called because he heard that

I was putting out feelers about coaching.

Okay.

-Hey. I'm meeting... -Hi, welcome.

I see him right there. Thank you.

Excuse me. Hey.

How you doing?

"We're gonna need that hand, Roche!"

Stop.

I used to slam the floor so fucking hard

and pretend it didn't hurt.

Look, that's what made you a champion.

Your singular focus, your dedication.

That's why I heard you wanted to get into coaching,

I had to reach out.

It's very flattering.

I was really excited you reached out.

Half the US Women's volleyball team

has come out of our program.

And the truth is, I've been missing it

every single day since I retired.

I just...

Yeah, I knew coaching would be a great way back in.

I guess part of me didn't want to accept

that I wasn't a player anymore.

You know, so much of my identity was wrapped up in it and...

I get that. But I'm telling you,

coaching fills that void for you.

It forces you to shift gears.

You stop using the phrase, "Hey, back when I played..."

Right.

You learn to make everyone better

without comparing them to yourself.

Right. Amazing.

Is-- Is it frustrating?

-Yes! Absolutely frustrating. -Oh. Okay.

That's just a given.

I think it'll always be that way.

But for me, I can't tell you how gratifying it is

to be part of a sport as it evolves, despite not playing.

-Wow. -That's what does it for me.

The best part, my three daughters, they love it.

They actually think their dad is cool.

Hey, how's Tracy? What a beast she was.

She's good.

She's, uh, in Salt Lake, doing her thing.

Oh, yeah. Is she skiing or...?

Polygamy.

Oh!

Yeah, look. It threw us for a loop. Don't get me wrong.

But... it's all worked out.

-I-I didn't know you'd split. -Seven years now.

I have to admit, being single

in your mid-to-late-forties is, uh...

What's the word here? Interesting?

-Okay? -Is that the word?

But...

I'd be lost without coaching.

It-- It saved me.

So... All right. Enough about me.

Alex. How's he doing?

-Two boys, right? -Two boys.

-How are they? -They are great.

Well, adjusting, 'cause, uh,

Alex and I decided to take a little break.

Oh, no.

I'm sorry. I hadn't heard that.

Yeah. No, it's...

Wait, it's not a break.

We split. He moved out.

-Wow. -Uh, it's over. Yeah.

Wow. Okay.

Yeah, it's actually good.

I gotta admit, I'm shocked.

You two just seemed like a perfect fit to me.

Yeah. Me too, but, um...

I guess we just...

...slowly grew away from each other.

If that makes any sense.

I get that.

Jeez, Tess, I'm...

I'm glad I reached out.

Yeah.

Are you tired? 'Cause I'm not.

I'm not tired. Absolutely not.

My buddy says there's a great place

right around the corner, actually.

Oh. Amazing. I'm gonna just...

-Yeah. Okay. -...use the restroom and...

Be right back.

Yeah.

Fuck it.

-All right. Following you. -Okay.

Sounds fun.

No, I'm not gonna do it, but...

Absolutely not.

-They letting you go up tonight? -Yeah.

We'll see. I'm a little bit late.

-Fuck. Cutting it close. -Sorry.

I got held up. I'm sorry.

I was starting to think you were bailing on me.

What? No, no, no. No.

-Whatever, I just-- -You want a drink?

-No, no, no. I'm good. -Okay.

Oh, my God, I need a beer.

Big night.

-Big night tonight. -Oh, my God.

-You're gonna kill it. -I know, I know.

Then we'll see. I'll meet you up here.

I'll meet you back here when we're done.

♪ I needed to know where The river came out, come on ♪

Uh, Sam Jay has the light. You have two minutes.

Okay.

You're gonna be great.

We can't just fuck and make a kid. We can't do that.

So it's like, how we gonna do it?

Someone's gotta go buy nut and I'm not buying nut.

I'm not. I'm not goin' to the nut store,

ask nobody for no nut.

And she got upset when I told her that.

She's, like, "You're an asshole.

We don't just have to buy a nut. We can just adopt."

I'm like, "All right." Now we're going to the baby store

and buying a whole one, so...

Hey, my name's been Sam Jay. Thank you so much.

Yeah!

You guys, give it up for Sam Jay!

I hope there's somebody else.

-She was great. -She was great.

-This is so fun. -It's cool, right?

Love it.

Next comedian coming to the stage...

I'm glad we're here.

...first time on this show.

Yeah, so I need you guys to give him a lot of energy.

Start clapping, make a lot of noise...

All right. Somebody else coming.

...and give it up for Alex Novak!

How you doing?

Oh! How you guys doing tonight?

Yeah! Give it up for our host.

-Wait. -He's doing great, huh?

What the fuck is happening?

Give it up for me. I'm doing great!

I can promise you, I did not know...

I don't--

My personal life's in the shitter...

-Does he do--? -No!

Yeah, I mean, I'm paying rent on a shitty apartment

and mortgage on a house I don't live in anymore.

You know? It's fine. And one of my teeth hurts.

And I don't even know where my dentist is.

My ex used to handle all that.

But other than that, you know... Hey...

I had sex with a woman.

Yeah, so like I said, I'm doing great.

Yeah.

I never thought I'd get applause for having sex with a woman.

Like, "You finally did it!"

Yeah!

Uh, yeah. No, I had sex with a... with a woman, um...

after, you know, being married for a number of years.

And... and it was...

...scary.

Yeah.

But at least I was not very good at it.

I think that after-- I think after 20 years of marriage,

you know, you just get used to doing things a certain way.

You know what I mean? Like, sex with your wi--

It's-- It's fine. It was great with my--

It's like, you know when you go to an Airbnb,

and you go into the kitchen, and it kind of looks the same, like,

but it's just a little bit different?

Like, certain spoons are in different drawers?

So you're kind of looking around,

you're opening stuff up, and you're like--

And I was doing that on a human body.

I don't know, I feel like sex now has really changed

since back when I was out there in the game 20--

I never cheated on my wife, so this is the first--

And it feels like now...

Are you sure you don't want to leave?

...there are so many noises

-that she was making. -No.

-...so animalistic. -I don't want to go anywhere.

And it just felt like two apes fucking.

Obviously, apes do not make love, right?

Nobody imagines that apes are like this,

staring in each other's eyes, saying,

"I love you. And let's come at the same time."

Apes don't do that shit.

Apes are doing it, fucking, you know, dog-style.

Or ape-style. Whatever the fuck it is.

I don't know.

I gotta tell you, the whole experience,

to be honest, made me miss my wife.

It really did. Yeah.

Which was, um, surprising because...

we had a lot of fights.

Listen... And, um...

And I actually kind of ended up missing some of our fights, too.

Yeah, they were... Our fights were...

Uh...

...psychological?

Do you know what I mean? Do you know what I mean by that?

All the dudes know what I mean.

They're like, "Yeah. Every interaction

is a fucking psychological minefield."

You know when your wife or your partner

gets really, really quiet,

and now you gotta guess what's wrong?

So, you have to ask a blanket, like, question.

Keep it really gener--

I remember one time, my ex-wife and I were driving,

coming home from a friend's place.

And she is so quiet.

She's so quiet, like...

Do you remember Jacob's Ladder?

It was like that. Right?

I'm sort of dating myself a little bit, but it was...

It was like I was questioning my own existence on the planet,

it was so quiet.

Just the two of us, in the car,

and I'm so scared of what she's gonna say.

So I just go...

I muster up the courage.

"Honey, are you mad at me?"

And she looks at me and she goes,

"You know, sometimes I just wish that you'd talk to me

the same way that you talk to your friends."

And I go, "Okay."

"Dude, my wife is driving me crazy."

Awesome. You guys have been so great.

Thanks so much. I've been Alex Novak.

All right, guys, thanks so much. Good night.

Let's go.

You guys, give it up for Alex Novak!

Oh, my God! Alex, that was fantastic!

Yes! You were so good!

Hey, can I get some water, please?

Absolutely, man. Yeah.

-Yeah. -This is Laird. Sorry.

I'm Nina. Nice to meet you. Good to see you.

Good to-- Yeah, we're gonna...

Yeah, yeah, yeah. No, I get it.

-It's a lot. -All right.

You guys ready for this next comedian? Say, "Hell yeah."

Hell yeah!

Start clapping right now.

Give it up right now for the legend, Mr. Dave Attell!

Wow! What a night!

-Hey! How was it? -It was so good.

-Was it good? -I'm so proud of you.

-I just opened for Dave Attell! -You ballsy motherfucker.

Yeah, you just did that set in front of your wife.

-I respect that. -What are you mean?

Tess is here with Laird. The tall--

What do you mean, Tess? Tess is here now?

What are you talking about? Where?

Yeah, just saw them. They went outside.

Did you not invite them?

No, I didn't fucking invite them!

Jesus Christ.

-Holy shit. Okay. -'Cause I said so.

-Take it easy there, bruh. -Whoa!

-What? -You found a sitter?

No, I got them working at the falafel place right here.

They're at your folks' place?

Yeah.

-What the fuck are you--? -What the fuck?

What the fuck, me? What the fuck are--?

You've been moving on, huh?

Me, moving on? You show up with fucking Laird?

Who I just said goodbye to.

Okay, but Laird, of all fucking people.

What the fuck do you care?

How long have you been fucking him?

For years.

-No. -No.

Oh, fuck.

How long you been doing...

-stand-up comedy? -No, I only did that one time.

-Jesus Christ. -Oh.

Mmm.

Sorry, I thought you...

Yeah, stand-up I've been doing for a while.

So I'm the only one who doesn't know you do this?

Actually, tonight was kind of a big night.

I mean, it's obviously bigger now that...

I usually only do open mic nights,

and they're, like, half the crowd, and...

I don't know why I never told you.

I haven't even really told myself

that it's becoming a thing, you know?

It's hot.

Really?

Give me a drag.

Mmm.

Hey, will you pass me my smokes?

I think they're on the table there.

If you hit the light. The button's right on the...

You got it.

I think the lighter's there too, right?

Yeah.

Thanks.

What's with all the smoking?

I feel like we're in our twenties again.

Mmm.

Mmm.

I'm just, you know...

allowing myself the grace to...

-Marilyn? -Yeah.

Let's talk about Marilyn.

Sorry.

What the absolute fuck?

Oh, my God.

Look, I think we're just gracing the shit out of each other.

Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry...

Sorry.

I promise I won't bring my mom up again.

No, it's hot. No.

Oh.

Hey.

What about the boys?

Like, we can't tell anybody.

-No. No, of course. -Right?

We can't confuse them.

'Cause, I mean, yeah. This is confusing.

Yeah. No.

Of course. Yeah, it is. It is confusing.

I'm sleeping over.

-Okay. Yeah. -Yeah.

Uh, there's, like, boxers and T-shirts

in that top drawer there.

-Here? -Yeah.

I feel shaky.

Fuck.

I can't believe you fucked somebody!

Oh, my God.

Did you fuck her right here? In front of our armoire?

Come on. I never would have done it in front of our armoire.

Do-- Do you know how sick and twisted that'd be

if I did it in front of the armoire?

That was fucking insane.

That was fucking insane.

Mmm.

You kept looking at me.

I always do.

Have you upped your parenting since we split?

Out of necessity.

Well, yeah, that. But, I mean, like...

Do you find that you'll, like...

Do you find that you'll, like...

I don't know. You'll-- You'll...

get off your phone if the boys are around,

thinking that maybe they'll see you on it less than me?

Just, like, you know--

being more attentive to be better than me?

To, like... to beat me at parenting?

Yeah. But I always do that.

Yeah, but, I mean, isn't that ridiculous?

Yeah.

But I always want to win.

Yeah, of course.

Fuck.

Yeah. I knew you'd say that.

Unbelievable. The passive aggressive.

My mom said that she didn't want to, uh,

meddle in-in my marriage.

Which is exactly what meddlers say...

before they meddle in your marriage.

Uh... My kids, um...

My kids though, I know...

They'd probably be happy to know that we're together. You know?

I mean, I think this would make them...

But we cannot tell 'em.

Because what if the wheels come off this particular bus?

That's what I'm worried about.

But until then, I'm just enjoying this wild ride...

of...

...having an affair with my ex-wife.

Hey, man, just came down on my break.

I wanted to watch your act. It's good. Getting better.

-Come on. One more time! -Thanks, man.

Excuse me.

Well, well, well.

I heard you crushed the other night with some new material.

You smoked my weed and you owe me money.

Just gonna go out on a limb and say I think--

Novak, let me get it straight.

So, your main is your side and your side is the main.

The new main.

-The new main. -Yeah.

That's like going to Popeyes

and gettin' chicken and chicken on the side.

"Let me get wings with a side of wings."

My grandma used to say gettin' back with a ex

is like taking a shit and trying to put it back in your asshole.

-Fuck you guys. -Just let go!

Fuck you too, Novak!

Hey, love you, young Novak.

Yeah. Here we go! Ready? Cover, cover!

Wait, you aced five.

I mean, she could not pass the float serve.

And our hitter was on fire, too.

Well, you had that great last swing.

You're nuts!

-What are you doing? -What?

You drove all this way from the city just to drive me home?

It's a 47-minute drive. It's not a big deal.

This is scary.

But fuck, it's fun.

Yeah.

-Is that Mom? -Is that Mom?

-Yeah. -Whoa! That's cool.

What do you think?

Pretty cool.

That's really cool, yeah.

Is that when she was in the Olympics?

Yeah. What do you think? It's pretty awesome right?

-Yeah. -Hi, Mom.

Oh, shit.

Shit.

Just like every year. There he is.

Oh!

I thought you guys didn't make it.

I was looking at all the--

-Hey, buddy. -Hey, hey, hey!

Somebody actually fell asleep on my shoulder while I was there.

-Hey. -Hey. Can I give you a hand?

No, man, I got these. They're light.

How are you?

-I'm good. How are you doing? -Great.

-You like my 'stache? -Yeah. What's with the look?

The look? I've got a...

I got a fourth callback of a ranch hand

in a western TV series.

-What? No! -Good.

-Yeah. -It's a strong 'stache.

-Yeah, yeah. I'm just grateful. -Nice.

-Here. -Thanks, man.

Shotgun!

Yeah, I know where it is.

-Yeah. Yeah. -Jesus. Wow.

I'm just excited. What do you want me to say?

-Yeah, all right. -Wow, thrilling.

What do you know?

Jesus.

Where's she at?

Hey! Welcome to Oyster Bay!

-Hey! -Whoo!

My God.

I can't believe it's been a year already.

-I know. -Did that Hopkins thing.

-You've been working hard. -Learn it 250 times.

You're in the attic, of course.

-Great. -I'm so happy to be back here.

Geoffrey, Stephen, you guys are in the primary.

Game night tonight still?

-Are we still doing that? -Yeah.

-For sure. -What are we playing?

Alex, you want something to drink?

-Yeah, yeah, yeah. -Same thing we play every year.

-Why don't we play... -Same thing we...

Why don't we do Bananagrams?

-I got all the-- -What?

-What did you say? -Are you unhappy wi--

Whoa, whoa, whoa. We know what game we're playing.

I'm just saying, why don't we start with Bananagrams?

No!

Why would we change it?

What are you talking about?

It's the best game in the-- It's why we come here.

Okay.

Hey, hey, hey...

Hey guys, wait, don't start without me.

Come on, y'all.

None of this fighting shit. Come on.

Fun weekend. Let's go. Come on, honey.

-Yeah. -Okay.

-Remember what I said. -I know.

-Jesus. -Did they start without us?

-No. I told them not to. -Okay.

-Yeah, so, it's our time to ask. -All right.

Obviously I meant...

Are you sure? Okay.

Look, I have four left.

Well, you think.

Wait, wait. I can't see. I can't see.

I-- Ho-- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

Mm-mmm. -Hold on.

God, I'd love to know what this process is.

Second floor-- I know! Gosh!

I know. What?

-Does this person-- -Guys, we gotta get serious now.

Does your person hold on to library books

past their due date?

Yes!

-That's a good one! -Yes, yes.

-No, no, no. No. -No. That's a librarian.

-Yeah. -Keep her up.

-No. -You know, every year,

-this does not end well. -No.

-No. Does not keep it past the-- -These two.

This person does not.

No. It's this person does.

It's this person, it's this person.

Okay, we're ready to make a guess.

Okay. Is your person...

-...Joan? -Joan.

Joan! Oh my God!

Yes! Yeah!

How good was that!

How good was that!

Hey.

-Hey, man. -What are you doing?

Just having a smoke.

-Sit with you? -Yeah.

Starting to rain.

Not gonna ask me what I was doing

coming out of the fucking darkness?

Sorry, man. What were you doing?

I just want to say...

I gotta hand it to you.

-You do? -Yeah. You look happy.

Happier than you've been in a... long time.

Okay.

If anything, you're an inspiration.

I mean, you're proof positive that it's never too late

for a man of a certain age to turn his life around, you know?

Make a fresh start.

Find out who you really are.

Thank you, man.

Right.

Which is why I'm gonna ask Christine for a divorce.

What?

Yeah.

No. I hear ya.

I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna take control.

No, what are you talking about, man?

I just told you. You inspired me.

No, no, no. I didn't inspire you...

Yeah. You did.

I've been unhappy for such a long time.

I was just too chicken-shit to ever do anything about it.

No. Don't do this, man.

-Don't do it. -Why not?

Our son's going to college.

If I get this job, it shoots in Texas.

I've never auditioned for anything outside the city

'cause I never wanted to be away from Jay.

That's over.

I want to be happy.

Okay, that's fine. But that doesn't mean that you--

-Don't you want me to be happy? -No, of course I do, man.

Look...

Give me one good reason why I shouldn't.

'Stache feels right. Feels good.

-Sorry. Kinda small, right? -Hmm.

You need more blankets?

-No. I think I'm-- -Are you sure?

This one's kinda old.

No, they seem, they seem okay. That's--

-Okay. Any more pillows? -I'm good.

Anything?

No, this is great. Thank you.

Sorry. I know it's not the biggest couch in the world.

It's gonna be fine. Thank you.

You want to know my secret?

Do I?

Yeah.

The real reason I despise you.

Yeah, I guess.

It's because you remind me of myself.

Surprise.

And watching you wither away all these years

just keeps reminding me of how hot you used to be.

How funny you were.

Just, magnetic.

I was even attracted to you back in the day.

And I'm not hitting on you, I'm just making a point.

Watching you disappear in front of my eyes

has just been this fucking reminder to me.

That marriage doesn't fucking work.

I mean, it didn't work for my parents.

I literally watched it kill them.

And then it killed you.

And now it's doing the same thing to me.

And I wake up every day,

and the first thing I feel is anger.

I'm just fucking angry all the time.

So, yes, when I see you, I see me.

And I just fucking lash out, you know?

I'll deny we ever had this conversation.

Okay.

But I'm glad we talked.

It's like we needed it, maybe?

Yeah. Get some sleep.

I got it.

♪ Was blind, but now... ♪

-Yeah. -You know?

I know it's been a difficult time for... some.

A lot of change.

But that's okay.

Um... You know, I read a line in a book once.

I don't remember exactly how it goes,

but it was something like,

"People change. But love always stays the same."

Anybody?

Mmm. Yeah, I don't see how that relates exactly, but okay.

-No. I loved it. I loved it. -It's really nice.

-I think it's nice. -Actually,

since you brought it up.

I have my own toast that I would like to make

to a very special friend of mine.

Oh, thank you.

-Her name is Tess. -Oh.

Um, as you all know,

she recently returned to her life's passion.

Mmm. Okay.

And even though she's only been at it

for a short period of time...

What, like a few months?

Yeah, but--

No, this is amazing.

She has already been asked to be the assistant coach

for the US Women's Team,

-LA '28! -What?

-What? Oh my God! -No decisions, guys.

No. It's just...

-You! Get up here! -No.

-Yes, please. -Come here. Oh, my God.

That is so...

Okay. So, it was not supposed to go down like that.

Don't worry about it. It's totally fine.

I'm really sorry she announced it.

She happened to be at the house.

It's okay. It's great.

It's great news!

It's just such a big deal to tell you.

-I know. -But it is a big deal.

-It's big-- a huge deal. -Right? That they asked me.

That's so-- You deserve it, too.

But I have no idea if I want to do it.

-You should. -It would be a lot.

It would be a lot. You know.

And the boys. And...

-Actually, you know what? -I don't know how I feel.

I don't even know what it would be like,

-or what the commitment is. -Look at, look at this.

-What? -Something funny I just--

Look at that.

-That's you. -Wait. Where is this?

That's-- I found that photo of you

and I blew it up and I put it on the wall of my apartment.

'Cause I wanted the boys to see

what a fucking legend their mom is.

Why didn't you pick a photo of me with the kids for your wall?

No, because I got a photo of you at the height of your power.

Look at you. Look how high you are.

That is sick! I mean, are you kidding?

Just be like... Smash! You know?

Like, that's unbelievable. It's their favorite thing.

I love it, too. I think-- That photo is awesome.

It's not me now.

Yeah, it is.

No, it isn't.

Here.

Do you have to sleep till like two fucking thirty every day?

Why? Did people wake up already?

Oh, my God.

What are we looking at? Oh!

I'm not sure what's happening right now.

I'm upset.

That's what's happening.

Okay.

You can upset me, and I can upset you.

Right?

It's what happens in a relationship.

I never said that we couldn't get upset.

I know you were trying to do a nice thing.

It hurt my feelings. Let's go in.

Are you... Do you still want me to come to the attic tonight?

What?

What about this?

That's fine.

-Space? -Okay. Jesus.

I'm starving.

Well, why don't you use a spoon like a person?

Oh. Well, I don't want to dirty any more dishes.

Well, we can wash them in the morning.

Oh, okay.

It's so good with my fingers.

Shouldn't have done that one thing, you know?

Jesus Christ.

House is busy tonight.

Anybody see you come up?

No, everybody was kind of in their own world.

I was watching this video of a therapist talking to couples,

and had them, as a healthy exercise,

ask each other what they don't like about each other.

That you slept with somebody, for starters.

Well, I only did because I thought you were

and I was jealous.

How you never respond to photos I send you.

Photos you always ask for.

I always send a thumbs-up or a heart emoji or something.

I'm sitting there, rushing around,

trying to get some perfect angle of a photo for them.

Just so that... You know,

I just felt like a psycho.

Feel like an idiot, knowing you could care less.

I love getting those photos. That's not true.

How quiet you got at home.

As if you were a different person

than you are with everybody else.

That drove me crazy.

Well... no, first...

Jeez, you're good at this game.

First that confused me.

Then made me sad, then drove me crazy.

As if we clearly weren't interesting enough for you.

I wasn't.

It was like you weren't even there.

I wasn't there?

-You checked out. -Me?

Just like you would after a loss.

Except for I wouldn't know the cause,

and so I'm just like, alone.

Well, good thing we aren't together.

Aren't we?

Well, I don't think us hiding is us back together.

Well, what do you care what anyone thinks, anyway?

Maybe I'm embarrassed.

By what?

-Me. -Why?

'Cause I don't know if you even love me.

You love some idea of me, hanging on your wall.

But not the woman you're looking at right now,

-in front of you -Don't tell me

-in this moment. -how I feel and think.

That's not--

I mean, maybe I don't love you. I don't know.

Maybe I fucked you because you fucked that woman,

or 'cause it felt good to hear you say

you missed me in front of strangers,

-which is... embarrassing. -Whoa, whoa, whoa.

It was a stupid fucking thing I did, and I hate myself for it.

Why? We had no responsibility to each other.

Even now, there's no real commitment.

-Of course there is. -To what?

To making each other happy.

Because we're doing things that make us happy

as individuals now.

And if we're happy, that's it.

Then we make the people we love happy too.

That's it? What are you, eight years old?

A real relationship

is finding somebody you can also be unhappy with.

Somebody who has your back.

We stopped having each other's backs.

I always tried to have your back. Are you kidding me?

There just wasn't enough room

because had to have your own back.

There wasn't any room left on your back.

Trust me, I heard. "Alex, he loves it so much.

He's always there for you.

He goes to everything. He loves it."

-I did. -Yeah? And when I retired?

When I let go of the thing I loved since I was 11?

You shut off.

You said you felt alone?

Baby, you left me alone years ago in this relationship.

Okay, you want to know the truth?

Yes.

I wasn't the downer.

You were.

You're right. I was a downer.

After years of dedicating myself to a thing,

I thought I could just stop.

And have my own children, and you be the replacement.

I did.

Never acknowledging

that it was the end of this whole other life,

or where I was gonna put all those feelings.

And then I was doing six years of in vitro,

and injecting myself full of all those chemicals,

whatever that was doing.

And by the way, and I love that challenge.

But I was having trouble with you and them

being the only thing fulfilling me.

And you knew I was struggling.

But that I was too proud to ever ask for help.

You hid behind that.

And I felt relieved.

That you never asked.

Because then I could avoid it too.

I couldn't ask you that.

-Of course you could. -No!

-Of course you could. -Baby, baby...

You left me alone.

I left you alone?

You checked out.

You think that was fun to be around?

I don't want to go back to that. I won't!

-So what are you saying then? -What I'm s--

Fuck! Oh, fucking stupid--

What the fuck?

Jesus fucking Christ, Christine!

Why don't you mind your own fucking business for once?

Whoa.

Maybe take care of your own shit first.

What the fuck is that supposed to mean?

...comedy, make some noise right now!

For my main man, the one and only, Alex Novak everybody!

Fucking relationships suck.

And I don't mean that they-- they're like a downer.

I mean, they fucking suck.

I don't think you're fucking hearing what I'm trying to say.

I'm telling you that relationships suck.

Like, if you are in a relationship with somebody,

they are literally trying to suck

the fucking life out of you.

Okay? They're fucking vampires.

And the moment that you're happy, fucking look out.

The moment that you are fucking happy,

they see that as pure, unfiltered fucking blood,

and they will suck it right out of your fucking body

until you are gaunt and fucking drained.

And they will take every fucking morsel of it out.

Because you know why? Because happiness is the sun to them.

Okay? Happiness is like a stake to the fucking heart.

They don't want it.

They don't want you to be fucking happy.

And there are only two ways out

of this fucking bleak, miserable existence.

You either become one of them or you fucking die.

Well, I don't want it.

I don't wanna be a fucking vampire. Okay?

I don't want it.

Dad.

What the fuck are you doing here?

Son, uh...

Well, I just came down to see what the fuss is.

Jesus...

You... really yelled at those guys.

Yeah, sorry, I don't really know what that all was.

Yeah, well, I wouldn't say it was funny, but it was, uh...

...a bit dangerous.

-Dad, look-- -Son.

-No, Dad, listen-- -Son.

You're a decent man, Alex.

And you can give yourself

the grace to work through all of this.

You know?

Mom.

Yeah, well, we rub off on each other. That's a good thing.

Your mother and I, we're lucky like that.

It's rare.

It's really rare. You understand?

Okay.

It's okay. Come on.

Come on.

Hey.

There you go.

Now.

I'm sorry... I'm sorry about...

You-- You don't have to be sorry about anything.

Life happens to us, you know?

What we have to do is recognize

where we stand and what's good about it.

It's gonna be okay.

Yeah? You work it through.

As for this, next time...

a few more jokes.

-See you. -See ya.

I'll add a joke.

Hey, man. I got bagels.

Oh, for fuck's sake.

So, they didn't say it, like, outright,

but my agent did tell me that production

called them, like, several times.

Maybe they want their hat back.

Will you just let me dream, bro?

No, you're probably right.

Look, man, I think it's great that you got the job

and that you had that experience, but...

I don't know, now that you're back in town,

don't you think maybe it's time that you face reality?

I have no delusions. Okay?

I know they killed my character, but just think about it.

What if they bring him back as a ghost seeking revenge?

I sketched out this little storyline

I'm gonna send to production.

But I'm definitely gonna give the hat back first.

But you never know. I'm a good writer.

I was talking about your marriage.

Oh. What about it?

Well, I mean, just, everything, you know, with Christine

and you leaving her and all that.

Oh, no, no, no. No, we're good.

-Really? -Yeah.

Yeah, yeah. We talked it out.

Yeah.

She said her piece--

...which was hard to hear, was good.

And then I said mine and then, yeah. Yeah.

Oh. Check this out.

She wants me to go back more than I do.

Yeah, she keeps saying, "You should just write them.

They need to bring back your character."

-Is that crazy? -Mmm.

Yeah.

Hey, man, is there, um...

Is there a chance that she's...

I don't know, that she wants you to...

I don't know, she wants to get some time away from you?

Why?

You'll be out of town or...

She came with me to Texas.

-Really? -Yeah.

She did?

Yeah. She was there all nine days.

It was her idea to steal the hat.

Yeah, she's like, thinks I look...

you know, really handsome.

Wow, I'm confused.

Yeah, well, confused is good.

I'm confused most of the time.

I just like being confused with her.

Who would have thought Jalen...

I love that guy...

but going away would be actually good for us?

-Hmm. -What is that behind me?

-That's a picture of Tess. -Oh.

I can't see her face.

Well, yeah, the photo's taken from behind.

Yeah, well, you should just turn her around.

Yeah, I don't think-- I don't think they can do that.

Someday.

She's competed every single night

of her college career.

She doesn't have as much international experience,

but to be able to grind through the Big Ten season

and make a big run in the tournament...

-She's got what it takes. -Played for John Cook too.

-John Cook. -Exactly.

Is that Rachel,

who Arch was saying came out of UVA?

-Hi. -Hey.

-Uh, is everything-- -Everything's fine, yeah.

I just dropped the boys off at school,

but I wanted to come by here

before I drove back to the city--

I'm just in the middle of it

-with the coaching staff, so I-- -Okay. Okay, I just want--

I just wanna show you something really quick.

-Look at that. -What is that, Alex?

It's you. It's you. First time you saw the minivan.

Look how unhappy you are.

It's my favorite thing.

I see that.

I realize that I was the one who was unhappy.

I was unhappy in our marriage.

I wasn't unhappy with our marriage.

I wanna be unhappy with you.

Let's be unhappy together.

Fuck!

I'll think about it.
