[upbeat music]

Okay, well that was a first.

Someone wasn't as
excited as he usually is.

Sorry.

Mack, you graduated high
school top of your class

and you turned 18 this week.

And my parents are in
Europe and said that

I could stay with you,
what's bumming you out?

I don't know.

I'm just edgy.

-Yeah, I've noticed.
-It's not you.

It's just, I don't know
what's next, you know?

College, with me.

-And then--
-And then.

It's a lot to digest.

I don't like uncertainty.

Hey, you're okay.

I'll be with you,
always, no matter what.

[woman]
Mack, Emily, everyone's here!

What did you do?

[chuckling]

Well, your mom wanted
to throw a little

surprise before before
the big party at my house.

So, surprise!

Okay, get your pants on.

Coming!

♪ Happy birthday to you

[applauding]

Whoo!

Yeah!

So proud of you.

-[loud smooching]
-Thanks, Mom.

Okay, everybody get together.

-Come on, get in there.
-Oh, a picture.

Amanda, yep, Carter,
you guys get in the back.

Okay, big smiles.

You're gonna thank
me for this later.

-Even you, Dickie.
-[laughing]

Ready?

-[camera shutter clicking]
-[woman] Yay!

-[Emily] Happy birthday.
-[Mom] All right, okay,

everybody out of my kitchen.

-It's good.
-Was it?

-Hey!
-Yeah?

Do me a favor and cheer
this guy up, would ya?

Always, Mrs. Prescott, always.

[chuckling]

No big party tonight.

-It's just you guys, right?
-Yes, mom.

Seriously, Mack, I can't
afford a doorknob in that house

-if someone breaks one.
-I love you.

I love you.

Go.

[upbeat music]

Your mom's a piece of work.

[Mack]
That's one way of saying it.

She's just happy you're
dating a girl

from the
right side of the tracks.

Is that supposed
to be a compliment?

[man]
Absolutely.

I mean, this guy's way
out of his league.

Oh, funny.

What about you, Carter?

See any challenging
women this week?

-Nope, stag.
-[Emily] Whatever happened

- to what's-her-name?
-What's her name?

-She's too sweet.
-You like 'em salty, huh?

-Oh, I like 'em tough.
-You're so particular.

Particularly
concerned about Marty.

-Look at that moron swerving.
-Worry about Amanda

dating that jackass.

Wanna hit?

Just watch the road, Cheech.

Hey, do you mind?

[chuckling]
Yeah, I mind.

You needed a damn drink,
you're so uptight.

-Relax, Casey.
-Leave him alone, meanies.

Here, take two more.

-Here you go.
-Finally, a drink.

Pace yourselves.

My responsible guy.

-You're so sweet.
-What do you call

the vodka you took from
your parent's house?

Someday, maybe,
you'll buy me some

-instead of having to sneak it.
-Never satisfied, are you?

Maybe I'm just like my
mother, she's never satisfied.

There she goes,
quoting Prince again.

-[loud inhaling]
-[Emily] Come on, girls.

Let's go batten
down the hatches.

-I'll get the trash bags.
-'ll lock the bedroom doors.

I'll go try on
your mom's clothes.

What?
Going to college in the fall.

Oh, right, mature lady.

[Marty]
Hey, man.

-Happy birthday, seriously.
-Thanks, dude.

No, really, man.

I know I'm kinda
baked right now,

but you know I love you.
I love you, too, bro.

Nah, don't bro
me, I'm serious.

-Okay.
-When I met you

on the bus in elementary
school, I said to myself,

there's a very self-aware dude.

You said self-aware and
dude in elementary school?

No, but what I mean
is, I know you're

wrestling with all
this life-changing shit

that's happening to us.

And I just wanted to say,

that you're a giant pussy.

[laughing]

That's awesome, thanks, man.

No, no, I'm fuckin' with you.

What I mean is, I get it,
and I've got your back.

-Okay.
-Okay.

Hug.

Sweet.

Let's party.

-Yeah.
-Yeah, okay.

♪ Hanging on a heartbeat

[kids chattering]

♪ Hanging on a heartbeat

You should
probably marry Emily.

-What?
-You'd be set for life.

Don't you think I should try

to make something
of myself first?

-Why bother?
-Seems a little shortsighted.

-She's cool, she's rich.
-You're cool, you're rich.

-I'm not marrying you.
-She's hot.

You're buzzed.

Figures.

Imagine my surprise.

Seeing you two not
handling your buzzes well.

-Who invited Ralph Lauren?
-It's more like

who invited you, Burns.

I'm pretty sure Mack's
girlfriend, Emily did.

She lives here.

Did you know that, Brad?

Yeah, Emily's
father worked with my,

oh, for my father for decades.

So, Mack's girlfriend
wouldn't have this

fabulous house if
it weren't for him.

Oh, how fabulous.

Why don't you just carry on.

Yeah, you know, Emily
has always wanted me.

I'll be there when
she figures out

-you're a complete loser.
-Oh, thanks, Brad.

I'm sure Boopsie over
there would really

find that information
interesting.

She's knows I'm
better than her.

Same way that Emily knows
I'm better than you.

Why's he have to be
so high and mighty?

Don't know.

Speaking of high, Marty.

[laughing]

Pussies.

Fuck you, Marty.

Didn't we already
do that, babydoll?

[cup clatters, drink splashes]

That's what you get
for calling me babydoll.

[laughing]

[water splashing]

[squealing]

-You're such an ass.
-I had to wash

the brew off me somehow.

I just bought this skirt.

You ruined it.

Let's get it off you,
so it can dry.

When are you
ever gonna grow up?

Never.

[cheering]

Oh, look at you, you
finally loosened up.

You having fun?

-A little.
-Yeah?

-Good.
-[sighing]

I just... I can't believe
that high school is over.

Yeah, tell me about it.

It feels like ninth grade
was about nine minutes ago.

[laughing]

But that's okay, you
know, next chapter.

You know what's
really bugging me?

-Hmm?
-We may never

see these people again.

Yeah, maybe.

But we're all still
gonna be friends.

-So that's good.
-I hope so.

I really liked high school.

Did you like middle school?

[giggling]

Probably in the
minority, but yes.

See?

What if we didn't make it there?

What if we didn't make
it to high school?

I'm just saying that
I think that if you

focus in only on
today, then you'll

be missing out on tomorrow.

-You like that?
-Mm.

-Yeah, is that good?
-[loud retching]

-Oh!
-Oh!

-Oh, my God.
-Nasty.

Oh, shoot, shoot,
shoot, it touched me!

-Oh, my God!
-Oh, what did you do?

-Oh, my gosh.
-Oh, brother,

you guys should've seen it.

She totally grabbed
my Snapple bottle

-and took a swig.
-Oh, my God,

-I'm gonna puke.
-No!

I'm gonna puke.

Ew, ew, ew, that is so gross.

Cops are comin'!

Oh, shoot, shoot,
shoot, shoot.

Are you still at the office?

[Mack]
Yeah, I can't go home.

Emily is out of her tree
planning for this party.

Any word from Casey?

Yeah, I texted him earlier.

I'm supposed to talk to
him later on tonight.

I'll be amazed if
you get him on an

-actual, live phone call.
-Yeah, what about Dick?

Guy's been emailing
me like crazy.

Well, what do you expect?

-You're a target now, Mr. CEO.
-Right.

-And Sam?
-[Mack] Negative.

But Emily's been texting
with her on occasion.

I'll find her
boys and nudge them.

I have to be on campus
tomorrow, anyway.

Yeah, well be careful.

They'll probably hit you
up for the naming rights

-of the gym soon.
-Yeah, right.

Be careful what you
work hard for, I guess.

In my case, be careful
what you don't work hard for.

What are you talking about?

You're the one who
wrangled everybody

to get together to
come to this thing.

That's work, my friend.

-Hard work.
-Gee, thanks.

And dare I ask about Marty?

Well, I sent him an invitation
to his last known address.

-A PO box in Sarasota, Florida.
-Oh, man.

I sure hope he
finds his way back.

[Mack]
Me too.

- All right, later.
-Yeah, all right.

Catch you later.

-[Woman] Did you
get ahold of Mack?
-[Emily] No, he's busy.

Em, dear, you know I
absolutely adore your husband.

But if he's as gung
ho about helping

as he was with the wedding,

we are never gonna have
everything done on time.

I know.

He's good offering to
host and gathering people,

he's just not good
at the details.

Okay, we can get back
to Mack's input later.

So, valet parking.

I think five attendants
should suffice.

Vera, how did
my mother do this?

How did she organize
all those charity events

all those years, and
make it look so easy?

-She was one of a kind.
-I know.

I can't even put together
a high school reunion.

Oh, don't be silly.
Your mother,

no, your parents, actually,
instilled in you

a responsibility
to your community,

and hosting events
goes with that.

You are gonna be just fine.

Thank you.

You know, living back
here at their home,

just makes it that
much more real about

that they're really gone.

This is your home now.

And I know how proud
they were of you.

This is gonna be
such a fun event,

getting together
with old friends.

Thank you, Vera.

I don't know what
I'd do without you.

Leave all the details
to Mack, I suppose.

No, no.
[scoffs]

[suspicious music]

Working hard?

Define work.

You know, there are a ton
of great places to drink

about 52 stories
down the elevator?

View's better from up here.

Kinda detached, though.

I call it perspective.

Not everything is meant
to be seen from afar.

See what I mean?

[upbeat music]

Really?

Just a little thirsty.

[groans] Jesus.

How was your day, Mrs. Camply?

[door slamming]

Did you do yoga?

Did you go shopping
with your mother?

Look, Carter, I know it's
your big reunion weekend,

but am I required to be
excited about it, too?

Well, yeah, a little
enthusiasm would be nice.

Look, babe, I know I should
be more excited for you,

and it's probably gonna
be a really awesome party,

but I need you to remember
I'm not from here.

I'm not like Emily.

I'm not blond and skinny
or have a trust fund,

-or go to prep school.
-But your son does.

Yeah, and most days
I pray that he doesn't

wind up like most
of those people.

I am those people.

to you that much by now?

Hollywood is a
really nice place.

Yeah, so is Philadelphia.

Oh, yeah?

Still a lot of chicks with
big hair that say "Yeah?"

[laughing]

-Pretty much.
-Well, that's nice.

[Mack] Glad to see your
sarcasm and cynicism

are ready for the weekend.

[sighing]

I can't believe you talked
me into going to this.

Great, so you're coming?

-Unless I miss the flight.
-Come on,

don't be a dick.

Besides, Sam might be coming.

Really?

Well, it's not for sure yet.

But we've been talking to her.

Hello?

[laughs]

What does she do?

What's her deal these days?

Her deal these
days is apparently

doing a great job
raising two boys

who are practically grown up.

I can't believe
it's been that long.

[Mack]
I know, 25 years.

Listen, I've gotta run.

Talk to you later, all right?

Yeah.

[upbeat music]

Come on, guys!

What did I tell you about
leaving your stuff downstairs?

Where are the Doritos?

Are they not feeding
you guys at school?

-[boy] I'm starving.
-Whoa!

Hey, stop, okay, you're
gonna go pick up your

lacrosse stuff that
you left downstairs,

and then you're gonna come back

and you're gonna
apologize to me.

Then we can talk about
saving you from starvation.

and I busted my
ass for 15 years.

I actually earned the
money that I was making

before 2008, I wasn't out
there getting lines of credit,

buying fuckin' flat screen
TVs, and going on vacation

like everybody else in
this goddamn country.

Nobody seems to
care about that, Dick!

Yeah, I'll be right up, kiddo!

Man.

-Hey, there he is!
-Hey.

Hey, what's up?

How you doing?

-It's so good to see you.
-It's good to see you, too.

Gosh, I was thinking the
last time I was here,

we were being chased
by the police.

They're probably
still looking for you.

It is odd being back.

How do you think I feel?

Not only do I live
here, we sleep in the

same bedroom where
Emily's dad died.

That's creepy.

in that room once.

And it wasn't silent, either.

I was mortified
because your husband

-I was just trying

to help you get over

-Dad doesn't want us

-at the party.
-Yeah.

It's an adult party.

In other words, they're
just going to get drunk.

Okay, girls, let's
head upstairs and

pack for tomorrow night.

Don't forget your jammies.

Listen, if that was Marty,

let him know he's more
than welcome to stay.

-All right, will do.
-We are thrilled

that you're here.

-Thank you for coming.
-Oh, thank you.

It's very good to be back.

[laughing]

Okay, we better head outside.

Actually, still work
hours on the West Coast.

I have to make a few calls.

Okay.

I'll be by the pool.

-Oh, shit.

What the hell are you doing?

It's three o'clock
in the morning.

I was just, just getting
ready for the weekend.

Oh, by nearly drowning?

Oh, it's no big deal.

You need help, Mack.

I need help?

I think we need help.

I have been
willing to get help.

I'm waiting on you.

Might be bad for your
stellar reputation.

Okay, here we go.

I'm just saying.

I think you've
said enough, once again.

[chuckling]

You know, we
could've moved away.

We certainly didn't have
to move into this house.

I am so sorry
that my parents died

and left this house to me.

Oh, well I'm so sorry that
I'm such a huge success.

I mean, not only do I
work for the company

that your father founded,

I live in his goddamn house!

Seeing as we're
having an apology fest,

I'm so sorry that your
inability to be happy

sent me looking somewhere else.

Well, maybe I'd be
happy if you saw me

for who I really am,
like you used to.

No one forced you
into this life, Mack.

[sighing]

[man] So, thanks for letting
me share my experience,

strength and hope.

That's what I got.

-Meeting's yours.
-Thanks for sharing.

-Yeah.
-Thanks.

-Hi, I'm Marty, an alcoholic.
-Hey, Marty.

I've been sober for
14 years, three months

and 12 days.

It's my 25-year high school
reunion this weekend.

[laughing]
It's hard to believe.

Almost as hard to
believe that I went

to one of the finest prep
schools in the country

and I'm not a
Congressman or CEO.

[laughing]

And you think of
all the ways that

prep school prepares
you for the future.

I felt like it never
could have prepared me

for what happened when I was 17.

25 years ago,
almost to the night,

a three-time DUI offender
slams into my car

as I was parked at a red light.

My girlfriend was
ejected from the car,

and thrown into a
split rail fence.

She was decapitated.

I'm 17, and I am correctly
stopped at a red light,

and a three-time DUI
offender slams into my car,

and dies on the scene.

You know, the cops
never thought twice.

I was a victim.

Amanda, she was a victim.

But my friends,
they knew the truth.

I was wasted.

I would continue to drink
for many years after that.

I went to Villanova,
I got a very good job.

I got married.

I immediately had a
couple of affairs.

The most sordid of which
was with cocaine and booze.

Lost my very good job.

Got divorced, and thus
began my rapid descent

towards the proverbial
rock bottom.

After which I proceeded
to blame everyone

and everything for all my shit.

I haven't seen these
friends in about 25 years.

[sighing]

Now that I'm serious
about my sobriety,

I think I'm scared,
you know?

That maybe they won't know me?

Just a hell of a thing

to be defined by something
that just happens

in a moment, you know?

Anyway, [laughing],
that's all I got.

-Thanks, guys.
-Thanks, Marty.

Thanks, Marty.

-Can I bum one?
-Yeah, of course.

Thank you.

Here you go.

-Thank you.
-Mm-hmm.

So, are you going?
To your reunion?

I haven't decided yet.

Well, I really appreciated
what you said in there.

Thank you.

I went to a prep school, too.

But I'm a few years
younger than you.

A few?

Maybe about 10?

Maybe like?

-15.
-That's more like it.

Anyway, those kinds
of club-like communities

have a strange combination
of have and have-nots.

I believe that everyone
is the same everywhere.

Do you?

Sure.

I suppose you would know
with all of your wisdom.

Are you messing with me?

Not yet.

Are you hungry?

Like the wolf.

Let me grab my stuff.

You should definitely go.

To your reunion.

I'll keep that in mind.

So, you think
Sam and Casey will

hit it off like old times?

I don't think anyone's
looking to rekindle the flame.

Well, that's good,
'cause I've certainly

heard enough of the same
old stories from you guys.

Maybe you'll hear something
you've never heard before.

[laughing] Doubt it.

Anyway, I was just calling
to be sure it's okay

if we bring Christopher?

Well, do you think
that's a good idea?

Girl, he's as mature as
any of our husbands.

Or, they're as
immature as he is.

He is a ninth grader.
[laughing]

Well, if it's okay
with you and Carter,

I'm sure it's fine with us.

Our kids will be at Mack's
parents for the night.

Oh, it'll be fun for Carter.

And everyone will get to see
how mature Christopher is.

And your kids shouldn't be
there, they're too young.

Oh, sorry girl, gotta go.

Bye, see ya.

Okay.

Oh, nice catch!

Philadelphia 45 yards--

Did you know Ryan McDaniel had

four receptions already today?

How would you know that?

You've been looking at your
iPhone the entire game.

I'm looking at the AFL app.

Why would you do that?

The game's playing on the
TV right in front of you.

It's not as interesting.

Please tell me you're kidding.

Don't, really.
Just don't.

Is this reality for kids
these days?

I'm telling you,
don't mess with 'em.

Don't even look 'em in the
eye if you can avoid it.

I heard that.

[announcer 2]
McDaniel, two touchdowns

and a good looking swing.

[announcer]
Well that's just too easy.

More importantly,

what are the chances of you
and Sam reconnecting tonight?

-Reconnecting?
-Yeah, why not?

Because I haven't
seen her in years,

and I live 3,000 miles away.

So? Doesn't mean you
can't have a little fun.

Oh, I thought you

meant getting back
together, back together.

Oh, of course not.

Talking about S-E-X.

What are you spelling, Daddy?

-I can spell.
-He's spelling sex.

-Okay, thank you, Brooke.
-What's sex?

Yeah, Daddy, what's sex?

Ask your uncle Casey.

Okay then, great.

You got the girls
off to my mom's?

[Emily]
Mm-hmm.

I wonder if Sam and
Casey are gonna hit it off?

It's been how many years?

Okay.

Look, I get it.

About last night, I'm sorry.

I was out of line.

How much longer do I have to
wear the scarlet letter?

You don't.

But it's convenient
for you when you're

having a moment.

I'm sorry, all right?

-Look, I don't wanna fight.
-Neither do I.

But if you keep
bringing up the past,

eventually it's
gonna wear us down.

How do you think I feel?

He's gonna be here
tonight, in my,

our home.

And every time you
go to work, she's there.

How many times do
I have to tell you?

-Nothing happened!
-Oh, I saw the texts.

I know exactly
what she was doing.

An emotional affair can be
just as bad, if not worse.

Come here.

[upbeat music]

We've come this far.

I love you.

I love our daughters, I love us.

♪ Who will I call friend

Well, we're gonna have
to make some changes.

Next week, we go to therapy.

♪ I will be the same

Okay.

♪ Until I find you again

I want you to know

Aren't you?

Come on, we're gonna
have a good time tonight.

All right?

We're gonna do a little dancing.

[laughing]

-Right?
-Oh, that's nice.

Don't you wanna dance with me?

Mm-hmm, no.

Oh, by the way, Vanessa called.

I don't know how much more
of that woman I can bear.

Well, how do you
think Carter feels?

He's a glutton for punishment.

What'd she want?

To let us know
Christopher is coming.

What?

[upbeat music]

Looking good, young man.

-Thanks, uncle Mack.
-You're wearing deodorant?

-Yep.
-Good.

So, when I was
your age, I attended

the 25th anniversary
of the class of 1964.

Now, those guys could party.

They were the class
that filled the gym

with pigs for their
senior prank, right?

Indeed, they were.

And the one thing I learned,
was to have a good reunion,

always keep the drinks flowing.

-Keep 'em coming.
-Yep, got it.

Yes, keep 'em coming,
keep 'em coming.

Hey!

No surprise, our
class valedictorian

is one of the first to arrive.

-Jack, you know Mr. Camply.
-Mr. Camply.

And his family.

This is Christopher.

He's in the ninth grade,
you should know him.

-Sure I know him. Hi, Chris.
-No, no, no.

It's Christopher.

Hey.

Christopher, say hello
to Mr. Prescott.

How you doing, Christopher?

-Hi.
-Glad you could make it.

Certainly gonna bring some
fresh air to this crowd.

[laughing]

Yeah, indeed.

Where's Emily?

She's still getting dressed.

Oh, I'll go up and say hello.

She'll be right down.

Yeah, there's no
controlling the woman.

Do me a favor, make sure
this guy's taken care of?

Show him the ropes, huh?

Give him a little
taste of the old

-senior boys tradition.
-Will do.

And grab me a scotch and
soda when you have a chance.

-On it.
-Thank you.

Come on, Chris.

-How you doing?
-Hey, buddy.

-I'm ready to drink.
-Let's do it.

Okay.

Look at you.

Your body, [scoffs] would it
kill you to eat a carb

-every now and then?
-Oh, I do, don't worry.

Anyway, thank you
for hosting this party.

Carter was going to, and I
said, oh, absolutely not.

-I cannot handle the nonsense.
-[scoffs] Nonsense?

Oh, you know, poor
Sam and misguided Casey.

Oh, and that Dick.

Always after Carter
to be a client.

He just wants our money.

I mean, really.
Did you hear?

They're going
through foreclosure.

Yeah, I--
[stammers]

I don't think their
financial problems are

-any of our business.
-Oh, and you guys

with all that
you've been through.

I mean, it must be hard
to patch up a marriage

after slipups, I give you so
much of the credit, my dear.

Oh, thank you, yeah.

No, we're doing a
lot of work together

to keep the marriage intact.

Let's not
forget Marty the alcoholic.

Killed that poor girl, Amanda.

-Leaving this house.
-Yeah, it wasn't his fault.

I heard that.

But if it hadn't been
for the other guy,

honestly, he probably would have
killed someone else, eventually.

You know what, Vanessa?

I'm gonna continue getting
ready, if you don't mind.

Oh, of course.

I just came up here to
see if you needed my help

-with anything tonight.
-No, I'm good, thank you.

Why don't you go downstairs
and try and enjoy yourself?

-Okay?
-Okay.

[upbeat music]

-[giggling]
-Hi, hi.

You look great.

I knew I should have
worn something else.

Why, what did I say?

Nothing my son
didn't already tell me.

-It's fine.
-No, I'm--

you look beautiful.

Better.

[laughing]

-Drink?
-Oh, even better.

Whereas most firms
manage your money

without you, we manage
your money with you.

After all, it's your
money, right guys?

Fair enough.

What is your specific
growth strategy?

Buy and hold.

You know, and yet managing
each investment actively.

We were up in '08,
what sort of returns

did you see in '08?

Now, you see, we believe
it's not all about profit.

We believe it's about the
risk, guys, calculated risk.

More importantly,
how's your golf game?

Well, my short game
needs a little bit of work.

-Are you a Mare member?
-No, but play it often.

So, things have been
going well for you

-since we graduated.
-Can't complain.

So where are your wives?

-Well, we're divorced.
-From each other?

That was a joke.

[laughing]

Guys, listen, why don't we
hit the links this Saturday,

talk some shop, and
on me, how 'bout that?

All right?

Marty?

Lou?

Thought you wouldn't
recognize me.

How could I not?

-This is my wife, Sandy.
-Wow.

-Hi.
-Oh.

Jesus, man, when
did you get married?

Last fall, after
I sold my company.

The wedding was amazing.

-We had doves.
-Congratulations.

I started a device
company back in '91,

-and sold to Cisco.
-I was actually

congratulating you
on your marriage,

but you sold the company.

That's good, too.

Good?

100 mill eight times over.

Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah,

business talk,
really boring.

I'm gonna go check out the pool.

Jesus, man, look at you.

-So what's next?
-Nothing's next.

-You're gonna retire?
-You bet your sweet ass.

-At 45?
-I'm still 44.

Not bad for the kid
all the other jackoffs

used to call "The Owl."

- For 13 years of my life.
-I don't remember that.

That's probably
'cause you were high

and drunk all the
time, but whatever.

Speaking of, you got any pot?

[laughing]

-Brother, I'm recovering.
-From last night?

[laughing]

I'm sober, man, 14 years.

-Get the hell out of here.
-Clean as a whistle.

I suppose after everything
you've been through,

that's a good thing.

Didn't that happen right
down the road here?

You know, if you're
looking for some pot,

I imagine someone has some.

Just ask around.

I will.

After I let everybody
know that I'm loaded,

and that hottie over
there is my slam piece.

Lou, baby, it's
an in-ground pool.

[Lou] Maybe we'll go in
a minute, sweets.

Good seeing you, man.

As soon as you start
drinking again,

you give me a call
and we'll drink hard.

You guys wanna
go skinny dipping?

You making a crack
at his skinny ass?

My girl, she likes a man
with some meat on his bones.

Oh, I don't know,
he's kinda cute, though.

Okay.

-See ya later, Marty.
-Okay, Lou.

Bye, now.

[laughing]

Wow.

Wow.

-Chug time, my friend.
-I gotta take it easy.

Em really laid into
me the other night.

That's like me and
Vanessa every single

day of my life.
What's her beef?

The usual.

Well, there's only
one way to cure that.

[bottles clinking]

Here we go.

Oh, that's cold.

[burping]
You think we would

have learned by now.

Oh, you know what?

After tonight, I gotta stop.

Of course you do.

Happy 25, buddy.

You think our dads
did this on their 25th?

Absolutely not.

But I will tell you this.

I believe they are in a
constant state of buzz

at their age.

And that differs
from us how?

By about a few hours a day.

How do you mean?

All right, bear with me, here.

I figure I'm buzzed nine
of the 18 hours I'm awake.

And I'm 45, right?

So, 20 years-ish, we'll
be about our dad's age.

If I add 30 minutes
of buzz to each year

and reduce the amount of
time I am awake accordingly,

I'm gonna be buzzed all
my waking hours, right?

Huh?

No?

Never really were a
math guy, were ya?

-Okay.
-You know what?

I'm gonna go help
Em greet the guests.

Let's meet back here in 30
minutes for another round.

We gotta get this plane
to altitude and fast.

Okay, take it easy, big man.

I was born to
be buzzed, though.

I was, you know it.

Go for it.

-That's your first beer ever?
-Yeah.

-Nice job, kid.
-There's hope for you.

Okay, so the short
guy in the blue blazer

is Grant Ryan.

-He was a wasteoid.
-Wasteoid?

Everyone was
categorized back then.

They were sportos,
motorheads, geeks,

sluts, lugs, wasteoids,
dweebies, and dickheads.

They stole those terms
from some '80s flick.

That's Tom and Carrie Smith.

They were both a bit loose.

It's a second marriage
for both of 'em.

Those are the Reeds.

She was always
into computers and

he was a chemistry whiz.

That's Elizabeth Green
and her husband, Bob.

She was Class President.

Not sure what his story is.

Here comes Laura
and Jerry Lavender.

He actually took her last
name when they got married.

Pretty sure he's
out of work now.

Oh, those are the Rinkers.

They were the prom
king and queen.

There's John and Pam Hollander.

His family has some huge
industrial packaging business.

They live right
around the corner.

Here come the McCrystals.

They were boyfriend/girlfriend
since elementary school.

Now they're both doctors.

That's Abe and Tina Boundholtz.

He squandered his father's
dentistry practice.

Good thing the trust
fund is still intact.

And that's Brad Woodcroft.

He was a dickhead.

He still is a dickhead.

Thank you both for hosting.

Hard to believe
it's been so long.

Hard to believe.

It's good to see you.

Yeah, it's hard to believe
that you're here, Brad.

The bar's on the back patio.

We won't
be drinking tonight.

Okay.

I'm sure you'll drink
enough for the rest of us.

[chuckling]

[Lou] I'm gonna be honest
with you right now,

-Dick, is that cool?
-Yeah, please do.

It's a long shot
I'm gonna give you

any of my money to
manage. I'm only here

to rub my success
in people's faces.

[chuckling]

All right, well
even if you won't

consider me or our firm,
you really shouldn't

be managing that kind
of money yourself.

Why not?

What are your qualifications?

What the hell are yours?

Degree from Bucknell University?

Hate to break it to you, pal.

But while you and
all your frat bros

were searching for
porn on the 14.4 modem,

I built the business
that enabled

the bandwidth for
proper porn watching.

[laughing]

Well, seems you're
all cool, then.

Good luck with that.

Okay, okay, you got me.

Why don't you put me down
for lunch on the 28th?

-We'll talk.
-Yeah?

Maybe I'll break
off a few million

-and throw 'em your way?
-All right, it's a date.

-Let's do it.
-Guys, guys.

It's a party, it's
about being social.

Not networking.

Certainly not social networking.

Hi, Carter.

-Oh, hey, hey, how you doing?
-Been great, you?

I'm good, yeah.

Really good.

-[laughing]
-I can't,

I can't believe how
fast it's all gone.

-So fast.
-It's not fair.

It is so not fair.

[chuckling]

But, you know, I believe
that there's no point

in lingering on anything.

♪ Silently take my hand

How have you stayed so strong?

I am not strong.

Yes, you are.

I did not really
have a choice.

I found out that day.

And how it affected you
versus how it affected me.

[sighing]

I didn't have kids to tend to.

I didn't lose a husband.

I never recovered.

-I thought about you first.

years after college.

Those first few years
with you in New York.

They were amazing.

Why did you break up with me?

I thought I'd ruin it.

I thought I'd let you down.

And I can't stand to
nurture something that

I know will eventually die.

It's why I marvel at
people who have children.

Wow.

You have got it so wrong.

You say that things
are moving fast.

It's not fair, but you're
not taking any chances,

you haven't taken any chances,

and you have so much to offer.

I just, and it killed,

sharing it with anyone.

-I really shouldn't have

brought this up.
I shouldn't have

Okay.

Let's do another one
of these, shall we?

-Oh my, oh, come on.
-I think we should

get some food.

[Christopher mumbling]

Did you say hors d'oeuvres
or whore deserves it?

Maybe we should take
this guy upstairs.

-Yeah, let's--
-[Carter] Hey, guys.

-Hey.
-How's everyone doing?

Good evening.

[chuckling]

-What are you doing?
-Nothing much.

-We were just going to get--
-[Christopher mumbling]

What's that now?

I said, the whore deserves it.

We just told
Christopher a joke,

and that was the punchline.

It was off-color, sorry.

You know, I'm a
little disappointed

that you all are stealing
beers from the fridge out here.

How did you know there were
beers in the fridge, Dad?

Well, because Mr.
Prescott asked me

to bring him some beers, inside.

Now, why is Mr.
Prescott asking you

to bring him beers, Dad?

-Let's just chug, let's chug.
-Yeah, let's do a chug!

Okay, let's do a chug.

Here we go.

of Brenford boys.

-Hell yeah.
-Yeah!

-It's so cold!
-I'm impressed.

-You guys really can hold--
-[loud vomiting]

Hey, guys, do me a favor.

Run inside and grab
some paper towels.

And have the valet
bring around my car.

-You got it!
-Go ahead, off you go.

Off you go.

Okay, buddy, Dad's
here, Dad's here.

So, you have taken over
Emily's dad's secret stash room.

What the hell do you want?

To bury the hatchet.

Sounds great.

I think I got one
in the garage I can

bury in your head.

Come on, man, you won.

That's right, I
won fair and square.

Want me to call you an Uber?

Nah, that's all right, Mack.

My driver's outside.

Then you're set.

You know it's not my
fault Emily came to me

when you guys were
having trouble?

I think it's time
you left my house.

Your house?

Emily's grandfather
built this house,

because my grandfather
gave him an opportunity.

I had my first glass
of scotch at that bar

with both of them.

I believe you were
still bartending

in Drexel Hill at the time.

That's right, I was.

To help pay for my
tuition at Penn.

And what's your problem
with Drexel Hill?

-Not white enough for ya?
-You said it, not me.

Does your wife
know how much of a

-piece of shit you are?
-[chuckling]

She knows what I tell her.

And she absolutely knows
I was a poor victim.

Which means that she,
and everyone else,

knows that Emily was
nothing but a cheap whore.

[dramatic music]

I always knew I'd get a
shot with Emily eventually.

I just didn't think you'd
open the door for me.

Can I show you out now?

No, that's all right, Mack.

I know my way around.

[door slamming]

-Honey, he's fine now.

-Just calm down.
-Fine?

He is drunk.

Stinking drunk, like you
and all your stupid friends.

Vanessa, please calm down.

Oh, I'm sorry,
I'm not like you.

I can't just calm down
to keep up appearances.

We're not keeping
up appearances.

I just don't see
the tragedy in a

14-year-old boy having a beer.

Of course, you
wouldn't, would you?

Look at your husband.

-Vanessa, car's here.
-Yeah, mom, the car's here.

Thank God, let's
leave this place.

And never, never again.

Okay, just hold up
one second, Vanessa.

Maybe if you didn't treat
your 14-year-old son

like he was a child, he
wouldn't go off the deep end.

And maybe if you
gave your husband

just an ounce of respect
for the accomplished

and patient man that
he is, he wouldn't be

walking around on
damn eggshells.

What is so wrong with your life?

All I am saying is just
take stock in what you have

while you have it.

And lighten up.

Yeah, mom.
Lighten up.

- Not white enough for you?
-[Brad] You said it, not me.

[Mack]
Does your wife know how much

of a piece of shit you are?

[Brad]
She knows what I tell her.

And she absolutely knows
I was a poor victim.

Which means that she,
and everyone else,

knows that Emily was
nothing but a cheap whore.

I wanted you to
hear the truth.

I'm not excusing what I did.

My credibility has been shot,

and I'm not gonna

But I need to move on, too.

And I need everyone
to know the truth.

It hurt.

It still hurts.
I considered you a close friend.

I was your friend.

And I was having a
momentary lapse of reason

and I took advantage of that.

If I had a magic wand, I
would take this all away.

I wish you could.

What I can tell you is
it was a symptom of problems

that Mack and I have been
having in our marriage.

So, you guys are all good now?

No.

We've got a lot of work to do.

Mack did say the
reason he didn't

punch Brad in the face
was, well, he knows it

takes two to tango,
but it only takes one

to ask to dance.

And, honestly,
I was vulnerable.

And as hard as, and
this is gonna be hard

for you to hear,
Brad took advantage.

She needs to let this sink in.

It's why I came back.

Okay, but I really
feel like a jerk.

It's okay.

It's okay, really.

Are you sure?

Em, I'm sure.

Okay, okay, thank you.

It's beautiful.

Christopher got
hammered tonight.

[laughing]

Hammered.

Because the kid needed
to break out of prison

for the first time in his
life at the age of 14.

And you know what?

It inspired me.

Because I gotta break out, too.

At 45.

Before it's too late.

Love you, too.

Get home safe, all right?

Yeah.

And you.

Man, I don't even

Brother, let's just
don't say anything.

Okay, fine.

Hey.

-Thanks for reaching out.
-Of course.

You know I needed
to come home, right?
