- PREVIOUSLY ON AWKWARD...

YOU APPLIED TO COLLEGE?

WHY DIDN'’T YOU TELL ME?

- I DIDN'’T TELL ANYONE.

- WE MAKE A GREAT TEAM.
- TOTALLY.

- I'’M GLAD WE'’RE HANGING OUT
BECAUSE I LIKE YOU, JENNA.

- GABBY'’S A REALLY COOL GIRL.
- YEAH, SHE IS.

SO ARE YOU.

- SENIOR YEAR
WAS TWO-THIRDS OVER,

AND I STILL HADN'’T BEEN
ACCEPTED TO COLLEGE.

THANKFULLY, SPRING BREAK
WAS RIGHT AROUND THE CORNER,

SO I'’D HAVE PLENTY
OF QUALITY TIME

TO WALLOW IN SELF-PITY.

- GREAT NEWS!

ALLY RENTED A BEACH HOUSE

IN ROSARITO, MEXICO,
FOR SPRING BREAK,

AND THE WHOLE FAMILY
IS INVITED.

WE ARE GOING SPRING BREAKING!

- SPRING BREAK WITH SADIE:
PASS.

- WELL, YOU CAN BRING TAMARA.

ALLY SAID THE HOUSE IS HUGE,

AND SADIE'’S INVITED
LOTS OF FRIENDS

TO CELEBRATE
HER ACCEPTANCE TO COLUMBIA.

AND I THINK I'’M GONNA HAVE
A TEQUILA SHOT FOR BREAKFAST.

- THAT'’S GREAT, MOM.

YOU AND SADIE HAVE
A LOT TO CELEBRATE,

WHAT, WITH YOU BOTH GOING
TO COLLEGE IN THE FALL.

- YEAH, CAN YOU JUST KEEP
THAT STUFF BETWEEN US FOR NOW?

- YOU STILL HAVEN'’T TOLD HIM?

- I'’M WAITING
FOR THE RIGHT TIME.

- TIME FOR WHAT?

- SOMEONE IN THIS ROOM
GOT INTO LOCKARD COLLEGE.

- OH, THANK GOD.
I DIDN'’T WANT TO SAY ANYTHING,

BUT IF YOU WEREN'’T ACCEPTED
ANYWHERE BY SPRING BREAK,

I WAS REALLY GOING
TO START TO WORRY.

- OH.

NOT ME.

- SURPRISE!

- WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?

- WHEN I WAS VISITING CAMPUSES
WITH JENNA THIS FALL,

I STARTED THINKING,

"IS IT REALLY TOO LATE FOR ME?"

- YES.
- WHAT?

YOU APPLIED TO COLLEGE
WITHOUT TELLING ME?

- BECAUSE IF I DIDN'’T GET IN,
THERE WOULD BE NOTHING TO TELL.

BUT...I GOT IN.

- SO YOU'’RE GONNA COMMUTE
OR PLEDGE A SORORITY, OR WHAT?

AREN'’T YOU A LITTLE OLD
FOR ALL OF THAT?

- YEAH, MOM,
IF YOU WANT TO PARTY,

WHY DON'’T YOU JUST
JOIN THE COUNTRY CLUB

LIKE ALL THE OTHER NORMAL MOMS?

- I DO NOT WANT TO PARTY.

I WANT A CAREER.

I THINK I MIGHT
BECOME A FIXER.

- A FIXER?

THAT'’S A CAREER?

- YES, YOU CALL A FIXER

WHEN YOU'’RE IN REAL DEEP.

AND THEY MAKE ALL KINDS
OF SECRET PHONE CALLS

TO THE POLICE AND PRESS--
WHOEVER.

- MOM, THAT'’S NOT A CAREER,
THAT'’S A TV SHOW.

- LACE, YOU DON'’T REALLY
HAVE TO GO.

I MEAN, IT'’S ENOUGH
THAT YOU GOT IN.

I AM PROUD OF YOU.

- OH, NO.

I'’M GOING.

I JUST NEED TO DO
A LITTLE MORE RESEARCH.

I CALL THE TV TONIGHT.

- LOOK AT HER,

HOLDING COURT LIKE SOME
NEWLY ENGAGED KARDASHIAN.

CONGRATS, SADIE.

- YEAH, CONGRATS.

- RIGHT BACK AT YOU,

IF YOU EVER GET ACCEPTED
TO ANYWHERE, HAMILTON.

- I HAD TRIED TO PUT
MY GUILTY CONSCIENCE

ABOUT MY DRUNKEN HOOKUP
WITH MATTY TO BED,

BUT I SENSED A WAKE-UP CALL
WAS ON ITS WAY.

- VERY COOL, SADIE.

LOTS TO CELEBRATE
ON SPRING BREAK IN ROSARITO.

THANKS AGAIN FOR INCLUDING ME.

- OF COURSE.

IGNORE ANYTHING
MY SLAGGY AUNT ALLY SAYS.

SHE THINKS SHE'’S
USING ALL MY FRIENDS

TO MULE MEXICAN PHARMACEUTICALS
ACROSS THE BORDER.

- HEY, THANKS AGAIN FOR ALL
YOUR HELP WITH MATTY'’S PARTY.

BY THE WAY, YOU LEFT
YOUR TEQUILA AT HIS HOUSE.

- OH, NO, I GOT IT.

- YOU DID?
WHEN?

IT WAS DEFINITELY STILL THERE
AFTER YOU LEFT.

- I DROPPED IT OFF TO HER.

I TOOK IT TO HER ON...

- SATURDAY.
- SUNDAY.

SOMETIME OVER THE WEEKEND.
- YEAH.

- OH, WELL, THANKS AGAIN
FOR BRINGING IT.

I DEFINITELY OWE YOU ONE.

- OH, HEY, GABBY.

TEAM MEETING BEFORE CLASS.

- GOT TO RUN, SEE YA.

- OKAY, BYE.

- BYE.

- I AM A HORRIBLE PERSON.

- NO, YOU'’RE NOT.

- WHAT DO YOU KNOW?

YOU'’RE A HORRIBLE PERSON TOO.

I FEEL TERRIBLE LYING TO HER.

MAYBE WE SHOULD JUST
TELL HER ABOUT THE HOOKUP.

- WHAT?
NO.

WHY WOULD WE DO THAT?

- ONE THING I HAVE LEARNED

IS THAT SECRETS ALWAYS
HAVE A WAY OF COMING OUT.

THE IMPORTANT THING
IS THAT WE STOPPED

BEFORE IT WENT TOO FAR.

- EXACTLY.

IT WAS JUST A KISS,
NOT A BIG DEAL.

- BOYS, WAIT UP.

I NEED SOMETHING.

- AW, PRINCESS,
KEEP UP THE SWEET TALK.

- YOUR WISH IS YOUR DEMAND.

- LISTEN,
I CAN'’T AFFORD COLUMBIA,

AND I'’M NOT GOING INTO DEBT
FOR THE NEXT 40 YEARS.

- IS THAT A WHIFF
OF DESPERATION I SMELL?

- MMM, DESPERATION
MIXED WITH BITCHERY

IS SUCH AN INTOXICATING
COCKTAIL.

- GOOD, SO DRINK IT UP.

I'’M A FINALIST FOR
THE ELSA HAX SCHOLARSHIP,

WHICH WILL GIVE ME
A FREE RIDE AT COLUMBIA.

THEY WANT A ONE-MINUTE VIDEO
SHOWING WHO I REALLY AM,

SO I NEED YOUR EXPERT SKILLS

TO MAKE ME LOOK LIKE THE KIND
OF SAD, SIMPERING SYCOPHANT

THEY LOVE TO THROW MONEY AT.

- THAT REALLY WILL
REQUIRE EXPERTISE.

- AND POSSIBLY CGI.

- GREAT,
I'’LL SEND YOU THE DEETS.

JAKE, I'’M SHOOTING
MY SCHOLARSHIP VIDEO

WITH THEO AND COLE LATER,

AND I WANT YOU THERE TOO.
- SURE.

I LEARNED A LOT
ABOUT PRODUCTION

MAKING MY MUSIC VIDEOS.

- OH, NO, I DON'’T NEED YOU
FOR ANY OF THAT.

PLEASE, THOSE MUSIC VIDEOS
WERE PATHETIC.

I NEED AN IMAGE CONSULTANT.

I WANT TO COME OFF
AS SWEET AND SINCERE,

AND YOU'’RE LIKE
VANILLA ICE CREAM:

BORING, BUT EVERYONE LIKES IT,

'’CAUSE IT'’S BLAND, BENIGN,
MILQUETOAST--

- I GET IT.

- SO WILL YOU HELP ME?

PRETTY PLEASE?

[knocking]

[Hellogoodbye'’s Die Young, Die
Dumb; Not Soonplaying]

- HI.

- WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?

YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND.

- YEAH, I TRIED CALLING
MY BIOLOGICAL DAD.

HIS NUMBER WAS OLD.

I GUESS THAT'’S NO SURPRISE.

LIKE HE'’D HAVE THE SAME NUMBER
FOR 18 YEARS.

- WELL, MAYBE THERE'’S SOMEPLACE
YOU CAN GET UPDATED INFO.

HAVE YOU TRIED LOOKING ONLINE?

- NO, THERE'’S GOTTA BE
A MILLION DANIEL DURANDS.

- A MILLION OR...

136.

- JENNA?

OH, HEY, MATTY, I DIDN'’T KNOW
YOU WERE HERE.

YOUR GIRLFRIEND'’S NAME
IS GABBY, RIGHT?

- JEEZ, MOM,
WHAT ARE YOU, TMZ?

- WELL, SHE'’S AT THE FRONT DOOR.

- HEY.

I WANTED TO REPLACE THIS

SINCE MATTY
TOTALED YOUR OTHER ONE.

- THAT IS SO SWEET.

YOU DIDN'’T HAVE TO DO THIS.

SHE REALLY DIDN'’T,

BECAUSE I FELT GUILTY ENOUGH.

- I HAVE TO SAY,

I HAD DOUBTS
ABOUT THIS SPRING BREAK TRIP.

I KNOW SADIE AND MATTY
GO WAY BACK,

BUT SHE KIND OF SCARES ME.

WE WENT TO PRE-SCHOOL TOGETHER,

AND MY MAIN MEMORY OF HER

WAS OF BURNING INSECTS
WITH A MAGNIFYING GLASS.

- OH, SHE CAN STILL
DO THAT TRICK...

WITH HER EYES.
- [laughs]

WELL, THAT'’S WHY I WAS SO GLAD
TO HEAR

YOU'’RE GOING
ON THE TRIP TOO.

IT'’LL BE NICE
TO HAVE A REAL FRIEND THERE.

- THAT'’S ME.

YOUR REAL HORRIBLE FRIEND.

- YOU GOT TO GO.

- WHY?
IS SHE COMING?

- NO, SHE LEFT,
BUT YOU GOT TO GO.

- RELAX, SHE DOESN'’T
KNOW I'’M HERE.

WE STILL HAVE TIME
TO SEARCH A LITTLE BIT MORE.

- I CAN'’T DO THIS.

I CAN'’T STAND SNEAKING AROUND.

MAYBE YOU SHOULD BE DOING THIS
WITH GABBY INSTEAD OF ME.

- JEEZ, RELAX.
WHY DO YOU HAVE TO MAKE

SUCH A BIG DEAL
OUT OF EVERYTHING?

- IF THIS COMES OUT
THE WRONG WAY

OR OVER SPRING BREAK,

IT WILL BE A BIG DEAL.

PROMISE ME YOU'’LL TALK TO HER.

- OKAY, YEAH, WHATEVER.

- "I ENDED UP
LIVING WITH MY AUNT,

WHO IS BATTLING A CHRONIC
AND DEBILITATING ILLNESS"?

WHAT'’S WRONG WITH ALLY?

SOUNDS LIKE SHE'’S DYING.

- HER LIVER IS.

SHE'’S A DRUNKEN SLUT.

- YOU SHOULD JUST SAY THAT.

SPEAK YOUR TRUTH.

- NO, SHE'’S TRYING
TO WIN THIS THING.

- IF THIS WERE ABOUT BEING REAL,

I'’D TELL THESE
SCHOLARSHIP PEOPLE

HOW [bleep] LUCKY
THEY'’D BE TO GET ME.

BUT THE ELSA HAX
SCHOLARSHIP COMMITTEE

WANTS AN AMBASSADOR
OF SUCKINESS,

SO I'’M GONNA HAVE TO ACT IT.

- AH, THE BASIC
BAIT-AND-BITCH SWITCH.

- EXACTLY.

SO ARE WE READY?

LET'’S GET THIS [bleep] ROLLING.

- ACTION.

- AFTER MY OWN
FINANCIAL REVERSAL

I CAME TO SEE
PALOS HILLS HIGH SCHOOL

AS A GILDED CAGE
OF COMPLACENCY AND ENTITLEMENT.

UNEXPECTEDLY, IT WAS WORKING
ON THE FOOD TRUCK THAT--

- TRY NOT TO SAY "FOOD TRUCK"
LIKE YOU'’RE CONSTIPATED.

- HOW ELSE AM I SUPPOSED
TO SAY A WORD

THAT MAKES ME THINK
OF VILE, STANKY SAUSAGE?

UNEXPECTEDLY,
IT WAS WORKING WITH PEOPLE

FROM DIFFERENT
SOCIO-ECONOMIC BACKGROUNDS

THAT MADE ME FEEL
CONNECTED TO EVERYONE,

NOT JUST THOSE LUCKY ENOUGH
TO BE BORN AFFLUENT.

THIS DUAL IMPERATIVE
OF SOCIAL JUSTICE AND HUMILITY

IS WHAT I HOPE
WILL BOTH BUTTRESS AND INFORM

MY STUDIES AT COLUMBIA.

DID WE GET IT?

BECAUSE IF I HAVE TO SMILE
FOR ONE MORE MINUTE,

I AM GOING TO PUKE.

- YEAH, I THINK SO.

- HOW LONG WILL THIS TAKE
TO CUT TOGETHER?

- IT'’LL REQUIRE PAINSTAKING WORK

TO KNIT TOGETHER 60 SECONDS
WIPED OF ALL BITCHERY AND SHADE.

- GREAT, I WON'’T BE NEEDING
YOUR SERVICES ANY LONGER.

- COME BACK, SADIE.
- OH, NO, MY DREAMS ARE RUINED.

- I WANT YOU TO EDIT IT.

- ME?
WHAT--WHY?

- BECAUSE I GOT WHAT I NEEDED
FROM THOSE TWISTED TWINKS,

AND NOW I NEED A NICE GUY
TO DO AS HE'’S TOLD.

SO DON'’T [bleep] IT UP, OKAY?

OH...

AND THANK YOU SO MUCH, JAKE.

- I HAD SURVIVED
LAST NIGHT'’S CLOSE ENCOUNTER

AND WAS DETERMINED
TO BE A BETTER FRIEND TO GABBY

BY LIMITING FUTURE
ENCOUNTERS WITH MATTY.

- JEN.

MATTY TOLD ME WHAT WENT DOWN
AFTER HIS PARTY,

AND I TOTALLY UNDERSTAND.

DON'’T WORRY.

WE NEVER EVEN HAVE
TO SPEAK ABOUT IT.

- OH, THANK GOD.

I KNEW YOU'’D UNDERSTAND.

I MEAN, WE DIDN'’T MEAN
FOR ANYTHING TO HAPPEN.

WE WERE JUST BOTH
REALLY DRUNK AND SAD, AND--

- HEY.

- DID YOU HOOK UP WITH JENNA?

- I THOUGHT YOU TOLD HER.
SHE SAID--

- HE TOLD ME YOU'’VE BEEN
TALKING A LOT

BECAUSE YOU'’RE UPSET
YOUR MOM GOT INTO COLLEGE.

- THAT IS TRUE, TOO.

- I AM SUCH AN IDIOT.

YOU TWO HAVE FUN
ON SPRING BREAK TOGETHER.

- NO, GABBY, WAIT, IT'’S--

THANKS, JENNA.

GABBY.

- LET'’S EAT INSIDE TODAY.

THERE'’S TOO MUCH TRASH OUT HERE.

- WHAT'’S WITH
INTIMIDATION NATION?

I THOUGHT YOU WERE TIGHT
WITH "GAB" AND HER CREW.

- THINGS HAVE CHANGED.

- OH, MY GOD,
WHAT HAVE YOU DONE NOW?

- WHY DO YOU JUST ASSUME
IT'’S MY FAULT?

- BECAUSE I'’VE KNOWN YOU
MY WHOLE LIFE.

- MATTY AND I SORT OF HOOKED UP,

BRIEFLY AND BARELY,
AFTER HIS BIRTHDAY PARTY.

- HOW COULD YOU BE
SO DEJA-STUPID?

WHEN ARE YOU GONNA LEARN?

OLD BOYFRIENDS ARE LIKE CHIPS:
NO DOUBLE-DIPPING.

- IT'’S NOT LIKE THAT.
IT WAS A REALLY INTENSE NIGHT.

I'’D JUST FOUND OUT
THAT MY MOM GOT INTO LOCKARD,

AND MATTY...

- REALLY?
MORE SECRETS?

IT'’S NOT MY SECRET,
IT'’S MATTY'’S.

- OKAY, I KNOW I CAN'’T
KEEP A SECRET,

BUT YOU STILL--LATER.

- I DECIDED TO FINISH MY LUNCH
IN A FAMILIAR PLACE

WITHOUT THE JUDGMENTAL STARES.

UNFORTUNATELY, JUDGMENT WAS
HARD TO OUTRUN IN HIGH SCHOOL.

HONESTY HAD PROVED
A DANGEROUS POLICY,

AND I WAS SUFFERING
THE CONSEQUENCES

FROM GABBY AND HER CREW.

LUCKILY, I HAD A GUIDANCE
COUNSELOR AVAILABLE 24/7.

[laughter]

- [muffled]
SPRING BREAK, WOOT-WOOT!

DID YOU HEAR?

WILL AND I ARE GOING TO BE
MEETING YOU IN MEXICO.

- YEAH, I'’M TEACHING VAL
HOW TO SCUBA DIVE.

I CAN'’T BELIEVE
SHE'’S NEVER GONE DOWN

AND EXPLORED ALL THE LIFE
JUST TEEMING IN THE OCEAN.

- WELL, WHAT CAN I SAY?

I NEVER WANTED TO GO DOWN
UNTIL I MET YOU.

HUH?

- SHOULD I GIVE YOU GUYS
SOME PRIVATE TIME?

- YEAH, THANKS.

- I HEARD ABOUT YOUR HOOKUP.

I GET IT.

THAT INTIMIDATION NATION GROUP
SCARES ME TOO.

IT'’S UNDERSTANDABLE.

THE ONLY WAY YOU FELT
YOU COULD COMPETE

WAS BY SLUTTING IT UP.

- IT WASN'’T ABOUT THAT.
I WAS SAD.

I JUST FOUND OUT
MY MOM GOT INTO COLLEGE.

- WELL, BRAVO.

SHE'’S CHALLENGING HERSELF,

EXPLORING UNCHARTED WATERS.

- YEAH, I UNDERSTAND
LACEY'’S NEED TO GROW.

WILL IS PUSHING ME TO BREAK FREE
FROM MY NORMAL ROUTINE.

SPEAKING OF,
I NEED TO BE AU COURANT

ON ALL THINGS SEXUAL
FOR SPRING BREAK.

IS IT REALLY POSSIBLE
TO FIT TWO WHOLE--

- OKAY, NOT ENGAGING.

- OKAY, GOOD TALK.

DON'’T BE SO HARD ON YOURSELF.

IT TAKES TWO TO TANGO,

OR SOMETIMES THREE.

IT'’S NOT ALL YOUR FAULT.

- IT'’S ALL YOUR FAULT.

THANKS TO YOU, MATTY ISN'’T
GOING ON SPRING BREAK.

- WHAT?
I THOUGHT IT WAS

JUST GABBY
WHO WASN'’T GOING.

- MATTY IS ONE OF THE FEW PEOPLE

I ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT
IN THIS SCHOOL.

AND NOW HE'’S NOT GOING
BECAUSE OF YOU

AND YOUR OVEREAGER,
RASTY LITTLE BEAVER.

- NEXT UP, A VIDEO ESSAY
SUBMITTED TO US

THIS VERY MORNING
BY SADIE SAXTON,

WHO'’S A FINALIST
FOR THE ELSA HAX SCHOLARSHIP,

WHICH SHE HOPES WILL PAY HER WAY
TO COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY.

TAKE NOTE, ALL YOU JUNIORS.
THIS IS THE KIND OF SUCKING UP

THAT GETS YOU A FREE RIDE
TO THE IVY LEAGUE.

- MY NAME IS SADIE SAXTON,

AND I'’M A SENIOR HERE
AT PALOS HILLS--[bleep].

CAN WE DO IT AGAIN?

I SAID "PALOS" LIKE A CHOLO.

[laughter]

I'’VE EMBRACED MY EXPERIENCES

BEYOND THE GILDED [bleep]--
CAGES.

[bleep], I HAVE TO
DO THAT AGAIN.

[laughter]

CAN YOU STOP WHISPERING?

STOP WHISPERING,
MARY-KATE AND TRASHLEY.

SHUT THE [bleep] UP.

SHUT THE [bleep] UP
OR GET OUT.

[laughter]

IF YOU ASK FOR ONE MORE TAKE,

I WILL SMASH THIS CAMERA
INTO YOUR BRAIN.

[laughter]
GIVE THAT BACK TO ME--[grunts]!

[bleep] [bleep]
GET IT TOGETHER, [bleep].

SHUT THE [bleep] UP!
[laughter]

I AM GOING TO FLAY
AND MURDER YOU...

VERY SLOWLY.

- THAT SOUNDS HOT.

BUT, SADLY, CAN'’T TAKE CREDIT.

JAKE IS YOUR MAN.

SOMEONE SPIKED THAT VANILLA
SHAKE WITH A LITTLE RUM.

- ROSATI!

WHAT THE HELL, ROSATI?

THAT IS NOT THE VIDEO
YOU SHOWED ME.

THAT BETTER NOT BE THE VIDEO
THAT WENT TO COLUMBIA.

- AW, YOU DON'’T LIKE IT?

I THOUGHT THE POINT
WAS TO CAPTURE THE REAL YOU.

- THIS IS NOT A JOKE, YOU ASS.

- HOW ABOUT INSTEAD
OF THE WORD "ASS,"

YOU SUBSTITUTE
"ONE OF MY OLDEST FRIENDS,

WHO'’S ALWAYS HAD MY BACK."

- YOU DIDN'’T SEND IT.

I KNEW YOU IT.
YOU ARE TOO--

- NICE?

HERE'’S THE THING.
WE'’RE ALL USED TO YOU.

YOU EXHALE SO MUCH SNARK
ON A DAILY BASIS,

YOU MIGHT ACTUALLY BE
WHAT'’S KILLING THE BEES.

- I'’M GETTING BORED.

- AT COLUMBIA,
NO ONE KNOWS YOU YET.

YOU GET A CLEAN SLATE.

- OH, I GET IT.

YOU'’RE TRYING
TO TEACH ME A LESSON.

PRECIOUS.

REALLY, I'’M TOUCHED.

LET ME THINK ABOUT THIS,

'’CAUSE MAYBE IT'’LL CONVINCE ME
TO CHANGE MY WAYS

AND GO OFF TO COLLEGE
AS A SUPER NICE GIRL.

- NO, YOU'’LL NEVER BE THAT,
SADIE.

BUT MAYBE YOU'’RE NOT
AS BIG A BITCH

AS YOU WANT EVERYONE
TO THINK YOU ARE.

- NO, I TOTALLY AM.

- MATTY, WAIT.

LOOK, WE MADE A MISTAKE.

- YEAH, I KNOW,
WE SHOULD HAVE TOLD HER.

THINGS HAVE A WAY OF COMING OUT.

- YOU HAVE TO COMMUNICATE
WITH HER, MATTY.

- YEAH, I'’M TRYING.

IT'’S NOT THAT EASY.

- WELL, YOU'’RE ABLE TO WITH ME,

IN YOUR OWN SORT OF WAY.

- YEAH, WELL,
IT'’S EASIER WITH YOU.

- WELL, I'’M NOT THE ONE

YOU'’RE TRYING TO HAVE
A RELATIONSHIP WITH.

LOOK, WE HAVE A HABIT
OF FALLING INTO OLD PATTERNS,

AND IT KEEPS SCREWING US UP.
- YEAH, I KNOW.

- AND NOW
THE SPRING BREAK THING.

- WELL, I'’M NOT GOING,
SO IT WON'’T BE A PROBLEM.

- BUT YOU SHOULD GO.
WE SHOULD BOTH BE ABLE TO GO.

IT'’S OUR LAST SPRING BREAK.

- IT WOULD END MY RELATIONSHIP
WITH GABBY.

- BECAUSE YOU HAVEN'’T
TOLD HER THE TRUTH.

WHY DON'’T YOU JUST TELL HER
ABOUT THE LETTER

AND THAT YOU'’RE TRYING
TO FIND YOUR REAL DAD?

- HEY, I TOLD YOU
I'’M NOT READY, OKAY?

- TO SHARE SOMETHING
WITH A GIRL

YOU'’RE WILLING
TO MISS SPRING BREAK OVER,

OR TO FIND YOUR REAL DAD?

- BOTH.

- MATTY, IF YOU WEREN'’T READY,
WHY DID YOU COME TO ME?

- I HAVE NO CLUE.

I WISH I HADN'’T.

[mellow rock music]

♪

- MATTY WAS IMPOSSIBLE
TO DECIPHER,

SO WHY DID I KEEP
TRYING TO HELP HIM?

SHOULDN'’T HE HAVE BEEN GOING
TO HIS GIRLFRIEND FOR THAT?

OH, RIGHT, HE WASN'’T READY
TO COMMUNICATE WITH HER YET.

HE HAD ME FOR THAT.

- HEY, LET'’S GO BIKINI SHOPPING
FOR SPRING BREAK.

- I DON'’T EVEN WANT
TO GO ON SPRING BREAK ANYMORE.

- IS THIS ABOUT ME
GOING TO COLLEGE?

- NO, IT'’S NOT ABOUT YOU.

NOT EVERYTHING IS ABOUT YOU.

- HEY, I DON'’T LIKE YOUR TONE.

WHETHER I GO TO COLLEGE OR NOT,
I AM STILL YOUR MOTHER.

- OH, I'’M SORRY
IF I GET CONFUSED

ON WHEN TO TREAT YOU
LIKE A MOTHER.

THE WAY I SEE IT,

I'’M THE ADULT
AND YOU'’RE THE WILD CHILD.

HAVING TEQUILA SHOTS
FOR BREAKFAST?

- I HAD ONE SHOT...

AND AN ORANGE JUICE CHASER.

- IT'’S LIKE YOU'’RE
COMPETING WITH ME.

I MEAN, YOU HAVE
A BETTER BODY THAN ME.

YOU'’RE MORE FUN AT PARTIES
THAN ME.

YOU DRESS BETTER.

- I JUST OFFERED
TO TAKE YOU SHOPPING.

- DO YOU KNOW
HOW HUMILIATING IT IS

THAT YOU GOT INTO COLLEGE
AND I DIDN'’T.

CONGRATULATIONS, MOM.

YOU'’RE BETTER THAN ME
AT EVERYTHING!

- HEY.

WHAT'’S GOING ON?

- IT'’S OKAY, KEVIN.

JENNA'’S RIGHT.

I AM TOO OLD FOR COLLEGE.

IT IS TOO LATE
FOR ME TO START OVER.

- MOM, WAIT.

I DON'’T WANT HER TO NOT GO
BECAUSE OF ME.

- SHE'’S GOING.

I ALREADY MAILED
HER TUITION CHECK.

- WELL, CANCEL IT.
SHE DOESN'’T WANT TO GO.

- YEAH, THAT'’S WHAT SHE SAID.

BUT LOOK AT ALL THAT SHE DID.

TOOK THE S.A.T.s,

FILLED OUT APPLICATIONS,
WRITE ESSAYS,

ALL KNOWING THAT SHE
COULD BE REJECTED.

- TRUST ME, I KNOW
ALL ABOUT REJECTION.

I GOT TWO.

- JENNA, YOU WILL
GET INTO COLLEGE,

AND INTO THE RIGHT PLACE
FOR YOU.

- HOW CAN YOU BE SO SURE?

- BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN YOU,

LIKE I BELIEVE IN YOUR MOM.

AND I KNOW HER
BETTER THAN ANYONE.

SHE WANTS THIS.

SHE'’S JUST SCARED.

SHE NEEDS ME TO GIVE HER
A LITTLE PUSH

TO GET OVER THE HUMP.

THAT'’S WHAT YOU DO
FOR THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE.

- MY FATHER'’S UNSCRAMBLING
OF MY MOTHER'’S MIXED SIGNALS

GOT ME THINKING ABOUT MATTY.

CAN I ASK YOU A QUESTION?
- HMM?

- WHY IS IT SO HARD
TO BE FRIENDS WITH EXES?

- I DON'’T KNOW.

I GUESS IT'’S CONFUSING FOR GUYS.

OUR HEADS ARE WIRED ONE WAY,

AND OUR HEARTS
ARE WIRED ANOTHER,

AND OUR--

WE SHUT DOWN.

AND WE DON'’T COMMUNICATE
WHAT WE REALLY WANT.

NOW, IF YOU'’LL EXCUSE ME,

I'’VE GOT TO GO TELL YOUR MOTHER
THAT SHE'’S GOING TO COLLEGE

OR SHE'’S GROUNDED.

- SUDDENLY,
IT MADE PERFECT SENSE

WHY MATTY HAD TURNED
TO ME FOR HELP

FINDING HIS BIO DAD
INSTEAD OF GABBY.

HE WAS SCARED
AND NEEDED A LITTLE PUSH

FROM THE PERSON WHO KNEW HIM
BETTER THAN ANYONE.

THERE WAS MORE THAN ONE FIXER
IN THIS FAMILY.

- YOUR MOM LET ME IN.

I FOUND YOUR BIOLOGICAL FATHER.

- OKAY.

- TURNS OUT THAT
EIGHT OF THE DANIELS

WERE ACTUALLY DANIELLES.

SO THEN I NARROWED IT DOWN
BY RACE AND AGE,

TOOK A GAMBLE THAT HE STILL
LIVED ON THE WEST COAST

AND WASN'’T INCARCERATED,

AND NARROWED IT DOWN TO THREE
VERY REAL POSSIBILITIES.

AND THEY'’RE ALL ON FACEBOOK.

SO THE FIRST ONE
IS PROFESSOR DURAND.

Ph.D. AT OREGON.

SMART GENE POOL.

SECOND IS DANNY D.
FROM BAKERSFIELD,

ALTHOUGH I CAN'’T REALLY
PICTURE YOUR FATHER

HAVING A UNIBROW.

AND THEN THERE'’S THIS GUY.

HE OWNS A BEACH RENTALS PLACE

AND IS ALSO
A PADDLE BOARD INSTRUCTOR.

AND GET THIS, HIS PLACE
IS RIGHT NEXT TO THE BORDER.

IT'’S, LIKE, AN HOUR
FROM ALLY'’S BEACH HOUSE.

MAYBE YOU'’RE MEANT
TO GO ON SPRING BREAK.

MAYBE IT'’S DESTINY.

- I DID NOT ASK YOU TO DO THIS.

- I KNOW.

NOW THAT YOU HAVE
THE INFORMATION,

YOU CAN DECIDE WHAT YOU WANT
TO DO WITH IT WHEN YOU'’RE READY.

WHAT'’S THAT?

- IT'’S YOUR MOTHER'’S
PERSONAL STATEMENT

FOR HER COLLEGE APP.

- LET ME GUESS, HER DREAMS
OF FIXING THE WORLD?

- SORT OF.

- "SOME PEOPLE WANT
TO GO TO COLLEGE

"SO THEY CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.

"I JUST WANT TO CHANGE ME.

"THERE ARE A LOT OF THINGS
I WOULD HAVE DONE DIFFERENTLY

"IN MY LIFE IF I HAD THE CHANCE.

"MOST PEOPLE WOULD SAY
THAT MY DAUGHTER WAS A MISTAKE.

"NO ONE ACTUALLY INTENDS
TO GET PREGNANT AT 16.

"BUT THAT'’S NOT
THE WAY I SEE IT.

"MY DAUGHTER DEFINITELY ALTERED
THE TRAJECTORY OF MY LIFE.

"I HAVE NEVER REGRETTED IT.

"I CONSIDERED IT A PRIVILEGE
TO CARE FOR HER

"AND, YES, TO BE HONEST,

"TO OFTENTIMES GROW UP WITH HER.

"HELL, MAYBE SHE GREW UP
FASTER THAN I DID.

"SHE IS SO SMART
AND SO MATURE

"THAT SOMETIMES
SHE INTIMIDATES ME,

"BUT MORE OFTEN,
SHE INSPIRES ME.

"MAYBE THAT'’S MY REAL GOAL

" WHEN IN TRYING TO GET
INTO COLLEGE,

"TO MAKE MY DAUGHTER
AS PROUD OF ME

"AS I AM OF HER,

TO LIVE UP TO BEING
JENNA HAMILTON'’S MOTHER."

- DOES THAT MEAN
YOU'’RE OKAY WITH COL--

- NO, BUT AT SOME POINT
I WILL BE.

- OKAY, GOT IT.

- AND I KNEW I WOULD.

I WAS SURPRISING MYSELF
WITH MY RESILIENCE...

AND MY OPTIMISM.

I EVEN HAD A FEELING THINGS
WERE GONNA WORK OUT WITH MATTY.

- HEY, I JUST WANTED
TO LET YOU KNOW

THAT I MADE CONTACT
WITH MY BIOLOGICAL DAD.

AND I THINK I'’M GONNA
MEET HIM ON SPRING BREAK.

I'’M SORRY IF I'’VE BEEN ACTING
LIKE A REAL JERK.

THE TRUTH IS, I...

AM A LITTLE SCARED
TO MEET THIS GUY.

I'’D REALLY LIKE
FOR YOU TO BE THERE WITH ME.

- NEXT, ON AWKWARD...

- WE'’RE ON SPRING BREAK, PEOPLE!

- THIS IS OUR LAST SPRING BREAK
TOGETHER.

SO LET'’S REALLY MAX IT OUT.

- WE BROUGHT THE BEST PARTY
FAVOR EVER.

both: WE'’RE BIG IN JAPAN!

- OUR VIDEO HAS LIKE
12 MILLION HITS.

- GOODBYE, PALOS HILLS.
HELLO, NEW YORK CITY.

PRETTY SOON IT WILL ALL HAVE
BEEN JUST A BAD DREAM.

- I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN,
ONCE AGAIN,

I WAS GOING TO BE LEFT OUT
IN THE COLD.
