All language subtitles for Parenthood s02e09 Put Yourself Out There.eng

I want you to meet
my granddaughter Haddie.

Alex is the volunteer
coordinator here.

I'm an alcoholic.

Romantic relationships just
aren't good for me right now.

It was a woman...
Up north.

Mom.

I know that you
cheated on mom.

How could you
do that to her?

We did it
to each other, Adam.

That's Matthew.
He's amazing.

I went back
to Matthew's place.

And?

How come you don't know
her password?

How would
I know her password?

Didn't you
overhear it once?

I don't understand
how everything we do is wrong.

What are you guys doing?

I'm officially
not a part of this.

They were trying to get me

to look up
your S.A.T. score.

- What?
- What are you, a narc?

No, I'm not a narc.

This is really a new low
for you guys.

You got to tear off
the band-aid,

you know,
see what's underneath.

- What is this?
- You studied hard,

and we just want to be here
for you.

You got anything?

- Yeah.
- Yeah, here it is.

All right, but we have to add
these, though.

They don't add it
for you?

Okay, somebody add,
somebody add.

Do we have
a calculator or...?

770, 775, 705.

Okay, so you got to
carry the three.

2250.

- 70--

- huh?
- 2250?

- I said it once.
- Really?

Wait. What?

2400 is
a perfect score, so...

- Hang on. Wait.
- Unbelievable.

It might be a mistake.

She apparently
is a genius.

Oh, my God! No!

All right! Yeah!
Come here.

Literally brilliant.

[Upbeat music]

Everyone, get off me!

Aah!

Yeah, Janet, a car pool
sounds like a really good idea.

I just--be careful,
okay, buddy?

I don't know anything
about an invitation.

Which Emily--
Berger, Martin?

Yeah, Max likes her.

Hey, bud, be careful.

Get a bowl.
I told you I need egg cartons.

Yes, I'm gonna check
his backpack,

and I'll call you back.

What you got
going on there, buddy?

Be careful with it.
Hey, Max!

Hey, yah!

Oh, come on.

I need, uh, four egg cartons
for green week.

- I got it.
- Thank you, honey.

Max, can you
give me that bowl?

- Hey, Max?
- Max?

Hey, babe,
did you, by chance--

did you happen to get
an invitation?

Emily Berger's birthday party
is this Saturday.

She didn't invite me.

You're not invited?

You guys are buddies, though.

You play
in the yard all the time.

She doesn't really seem
to like me anymore.

Look out, Max.
Ahh.

- Can we go to school now?
- Yeah, yeah.

I need to get
these egg cartons there.

Here, go around it.
Max...

Let's go to school.

[Cleaner spraying]

I think maybe
that the lesson here is

that if you're playing tennis
with Steve jobs,

you let him win.

[Laughs] I couldn't. And lose
the bragging rights? No.

I'm sorry.
I'm so sorry to interrupt.

Um, Amber got 2250
on her S.A.T.s

2250!

- That is awesome.
- It's amazing.

I'm so excited,
I didn't know what to do,

so I just went and bought
a bunch of doughnuts.

Hi, I'm Sarah.
This is my sister Sarah.

Nice to meet you.
Would you like a doughnut?

She's working with
the design team--Carly Barow.

My daughter's just--you know,
her grades aren't great, so...

You must be talking
about how I kicked your butt

all over the squash court
a month ago?

Not at all.
I would never say that.

You didn't beat me.
I beat you.

I don't think so.
Mmm!

Look at you.
No, look at you.

We should go talk
in my office, yeah.

Okay, please, yes.

It was nice to meet you.
Congratulations.

I'll talk to you
in a bit.

- Great to see you, Carly.
- You too.

- That is awesome--

scorching score.
- God, I know.

Have a doughnut.
Don't say no.

To celebrate Amber's
S.A.T. score, of course.

Who is that?

That's just a friend
of Gordon's from college.

Hmm, she's tall.

Hey, babe.

Hi.

How was art class?

It was good.

It was, um...

Really good, actually.

But, um, there's something
I have to tell you.

[Exhales sharply]

The teacher who was scheduled
to teach this course

had a conflict
and is not gonna be able

to be there
for the first few sessions,

and the substitute teacher
is Matthew--

Matthew Boscalli.

Uh-huh.

So I just wanted
to be open about it.

Of course,
there's nothing going on.

It's all very professional.
Okay.

Professional, huh?

Look, Zeek, I need
to take this course.

It's the only time all year
they're offering figure studies.

This is life drawing,
you know, with live models.

It's what I've been
struggling with.

So I just didn't
want to hide anything,

but at the same time,

I didn't want to make
a big deal out of it either.

So, um, I want
to take the class, and, um...

And I'm gonna take
the class, okay?

Yeah.

Great. Thanks.

Eureka!

There's gold in these hills.

Whoa!
Did you guys see that?

That was intense.

All right, guys, just
a couple of technical things.

We only have a few weeks...

- Hey, Principal Taylor.
- Thoughts?

Oh, I'm just watching.

Talk to your parents.

Have them pretend to be
the other characters, okay?

I think this one's shaping up
to be a real stinker.

- Right, you do?
- Yeah!

I have nothing
against Joel,

but he directed
the play last year--

the longest 47 minutes
of my life.

[Laughs]

Here's a thought.

You're a creative guy.
You're funny.

Want to help out?

Uh, with the play?

Yeah, I...

Hey, what
do you guys think?

Yeah? Yeah, it's
a little rough. Right.

Joel, I've just
been talking to Crosby,

and he is eager
to get involved

with our parent community
here at Sycamore...

Is he?

And, um, pitch in.

That sounds great.
I believe in him.

What if Crosby became
your assistant director?

That would be awesome.

You know,
I have been dying

to be your assistant
since we met, so...

Perfect.
Okay, cool.

So, uh, we'll talk
about scheduling

and all that junk--
awesome.

I'm gonna get back to it.

All right.
Okay.

Okay.

How about...?

I'm counting on you, kid.
Spice it up.

Eureka!

There's golden
in these hills.

Close enough, all right?

You have way too much time
on your hands.

Excuse me.
What do you mean?

This is important.

I'm just saying,
all the labels

don't have to be facing
the exact same way.

Yeah, but it's convenient
if they are.

You can tell that
it's Mexican stewed tomatoes.

Whenever you want to talk
about O.C.D.,

let me know--
I'm here for you, okay?

Okay.
Thanks.

Um...

What are you doing
this week?

This week, actually,
I'm going to the library.

I have a hot date with this guy
from Romania.

We play scrabble...

Online?

Don't talk to me
like I'm the weird one.

That is weird.

What about you--
any big plans?

Actually, this weird,
weird guy at my school,

everybody's gonna go
to his house for a party.

He made a movie
on his cell phone or something,

and it's not gonna be good,
but it might be...

It sounds very tempting
and entertaining,

but I think
I'm gonna have to decline.

But thank you.

No, yeah. Anytime.

Well, get
back to--to work.

What are you doing?

Just giving you
something else to do.

You're just, like, trying
to be annoying.

Uh-huh.

People listen
in different ways.

Your face
doesn't always read

the way you might imagine.

That's
why it's important

to have verbal cues.

- Can I...?
- Think of it this way--

- Can I say something here?
- Sure.

I messed around.

I had an affair.

But she did too.

She slept
with somebody else.

And now she wants
to take an art class

from the guy that she slept
with--same guy.

So, I don't know,

why don't we
talk about that?

I told you
about the class.

I was open about it.

I didn't try
to hide anything.

I want you
to drop it.

Okay, Zeek,
can you tell her why?

Why what?

Uh, tell her
how it makes you feel.

[Sighs]

I'm hurt.

I'm angry.
I'm--I'm jealous.

Okay.
That's a good job.

[Sighs]

Camille, is there anything
you'd like to say to Zeek?

I understand
how you feel.

I do.

And I will think about it.

I mean, Miss Orkand
specifically said

that Max and Emily
get along, you know.

They're a perfect match
for each other.

I was there.

I mean, they sit
at the same table together.

They do their class projects
together.

- Yep.
- They get along really well.

I just think it's weird
that Emily's mom

would single him out
like that, you know?

Maybe it's just an oversight
or something.

Maybe I should call her.
Let her know.

- Kristina--
- You know, mom to mom.

It probably just got lost
in the mail.

Yeah.

It happens.

Yeah.

- Honey?
- Yeah?

Can I come in and tell you
how proud I am of you?

- I'd rather you didn't.
- Okay, thanks.

Here you come.

Honey...

Can you just be happy
for yourself?

I just don't want
to do this anymore.

Come on!
Look at you.

This time last year,

who knew if you were
even gonna take this test,

and now you've done
so well.

Thank you very much.
That's enough.

Listen, something happened
at work today.

- [Gasps]
- A woman came in

who was a classmate of Gordon's
at Berkeley,

and she's still
a really powerful alum there.

Alum...Nus.
Alum...Ni.

Anyway, I asked Gordon
if she would sit down with you,

and he said yes.

But why?
Why would you do that?

Because it's a connection,

and--and if she likes you,
maybe she can make a phone call

or, you know, write
a letter to somebody.

It's just something
that could be really helpful,

and so I thought
you'd sit down with her.

I don't want to.

It's such
an amazing opportunity.

Don't just say,
"I don't want to do it."

- I don't want to do it.
- Why?

I don't want to put myself
in an uncomfortable position.

Why is it uncomfortable?
This is one meeting.

Don't say no
to everything, okay?

I have to go sit there
and prove myself?

Then I don't want to.
It's a great opportunity.

That's easy for you to say.

You don't have to go in there
and try to prove yourself.

- You always say no.
- I don't want to.

No.

All right, guys,
I need you to focus up here.

Pay attention and really
just try and get

those lines out,
okay, Jabbar?

Let's hear it.
Eureka!

There's golden
in those hills.

Okay, that's close enough.

And, Sienna, do you know
what happens right now?

She says,
"does this look like gold?"

I don't like that line.

You don't--
you don't like that line?

Joel, I mean,
even she knows it's a bad line.

Hey, take five.
Let's take ten.

Wait.
[Kids laughing]

This is--
this is pretty slow going.

It doesn't seem
to be getting there.

Yeah, it's early.

They shouldn't memorize
these lines.

They're boring.

They got to do something.

You know, what
if I wrote something,

you know, something musical...
Like a Broadway?

Yeah, you think that's--

Hey!
Do you guys like music?

All: Yeah!

- No...
- See how excited they are?

They haven't been that excited
since we started.

Yeah, Crosby, it's just--

I'd love them to just memorize
these lines first,

and then we can think
about adding something else.

Okay, but do you like
the music idea?

I--yeah, I think
it's a great idea,

just time permitting.

All right,
you're the boss.

Okay.

Did you see that explosion
of enthusiasm?

Yes, I saw it.
Noted.

You guys like music?

All: Yeah!

[Bell rings]
Thank you.

Oh, hi.

Andie?

- Yes.
- Hi. How are you?

I'm--I'm Max's mom.
I was just in the classroom.

Yeah, Kristina, hi.

Hi. We met
at "back to school" night.

Of course, sorry.

You know,
Max didn't get an invite

to Emily's birthday party,

so I was just wondering
if, by chance, it was lost,

or maybe
it was an oversight?

Oh.

No.

No?

Oh, no.

It wasn't. Oh, gosh.
Um, okay.

I guess I just
don't understand,

because, you know, they're
in the same class together,

and they sort of have the same
challenges and struggles,

and I...I feel
like it's a little cruel

for Max to be singled out
like that.

Uh, well,
it wasn't just Max.

You know, there were
two other kids in the class.

Emily specifically told us

she doesn't want them
at her birthday.

We didn't mean
for it to be cruel.

Well, it is cruel.
It's a little cruel.

I mean, you know,
the school says

that if one kid is invited
to a birthday party

that everybody
should be invited.

The handbook
actually states

that if you don't pass out
invitations in class,

then not everyone
has to be included.

The handbook does say that,
but, I mean,

the spirit of this school
is inclusion, you know,

and that's basically
all they ever talk about.

Look, my husband and I
talked about it.

We both feel that
one day out of the year,

one single day,
Emily deserves to have

exactly the kind of party
that she wants.

She works...

She works very hard
to learn things

that come easy
for almost everyone else,

so I just
want to listen to her.

[Tearfully]
And I'm sorry,

but as a mother
of an aspy kid,

I would hope
you can just understand that.

I do, yeah.

[Footsteps departing]

Howdy, partner.

Hi.

All right,
I got a question.

Are you gonna be leaving
that class

taught by your fling
or what?

[Tools clang]

I'm not going to dignify that
with an answer.

Okay, we got off
to a bad start there.

How about, are you gonna
drop the class?

Do you trust me?

Yeah.

Yeah, I do.

Good...

Because this
is about trust.

We have to start trusting
each other again.

There's absolutely nothing
between me and Matthew,

absolutely nothing.

And, no, I don't want to drop
the class.

You know, I think this
is something that you have to...

Get past.

We both do.

Yeah. Got it.

[Screen door squeaking]

[Phone rings]

Community center.

Uh, hey,
is this Alex?

Yeah. Hi. Haddie?

[Music, loud conversation]
Yeah.

Oh, you recognized my voice.
Um, I'm just...

Actually, I'm at
that weird guy's party,

and I was just wondering,

Um, did I...

Did I put down that I'm gonna
come into work tomorrow?

I just wanted to be,
uh, sure

and that there was
no confusion.

Yeah. Let me, uh--let me check
real quick. Hold on.

Okay.

- Yep, I got you down.
- Oh, okay.

Um, great, then I'll
just, uh, be there.

You're lucky too.

I have a huge compost pile
out back

with your name
written all over it.

I know how much
you like to get dirty.

- Well, thank you.
- I mean, dirt.

You're exaggerating
a little bit.

- Little bit.
- Yeah.

Um, all right, uh...

I'll see you tomorrow, then.

Yeah, I'll see you
tomorrow.

- Okay, bye.
- Bye.

[Pounding at door]

Is bedouin real
or a Star Wars thing?

I don't know.

It was a stupid party.
I wish I hadn't gone.

I'm sorry the party
was stupid,

but I'm not sorry
you had fun with your cousin.

Me too.
But do you want tea?

Um, sure.

Hey!

- Hey.
- Hi.

- Hey, Amber.
- Hey, do you want some tea?

Uh, yeah, please.
Thank you.

Thanks, Amber.
Okay.

Um, so I'll go get
that, uh, book.

All right.

I hope
pomegranate is okay.

It's all we've got
apparently.

So your mom tells me

that your S.A.T. scores
were off the charts.

- Yeah.
- That's great.

- Thank you.
- Yeah...

A regular prodigy.

- Mm-hmm.
- Yeah.

And, uh--
and she also mentioned

that you might want to talk

to my friend Carly Barow
who went to Berkeley.

- There it is.
- There's what?

Look at you bringing
it up so casually.

- What?
- This is ridiculous.

This is a setup.

- It's not a setup.
- I'm being ambushed.

- No, you're not.
- Yes.

Come on, look at you.
You're getting all nervous.

This was orchestrated
by my mother.

No, no, no,
this was not orchestrated.

Okay, that's great,
but it doesn't change the fact

that I don't want
to have this meeting.

This isn't a big deal
to you?

No, it's
not a big deal, okay?

Okay, since
it's not a big deal,

then why don't you
just go talk to this woman?

If it's not a big deal, why
don't I just not talk to her?

Or if it's
not a big deal,

why don't you
just sit down with a woman

who went to Berkeley,
loved it,

and, you know,
so you have a conversation.

[Voice breaking]
I just don't want to.

I don't know why
people keep pushing me to do it.

You don't get it.
Listen...

Every time there's, like,
a big thing like this,

I always mess it up,
and I'm so tired of messing up.

- Amber...
- [Sighs]

Life will knock you down

more times than you
can possibly imagine.

Don't knock yourself down.

Don't avoid
feeling embarrassed

because you're afraid
something's not gonna go well.

- I'm not embarrassed.
- So what if it doesn't go well?

So what?

Amber, you're...

A wonderful, talented,

and really smart
young woman...

All right?

Put yourself out there.

Give yourself a chance.

The thing I resent
is that your brother

has no idea
how much time it takes

to put anything
with kids together.

He's just like,
"hey, let's sing some songs.

It's no big deal."

Well, he's new
to the dynamic with kids.

And you know
who's gonna catch the heat

when the kids don't know
their lines? This guy.

I'm sure he knows
who's the boss.

Gonna be fine.

I'm gonna rock this play.

I mean, this might be
the first elementary-school play

that wins a Tony.

That's so cool
that you're taking this on.

So is Joel cool with it?

Uh, well, the director
is a bit defensive,

but I think
it's gonna make us closer.

Oh, hey, have you seen
my box of harmonicas.

Maybe in the front closet?

Because you know
what takes a play

from kind of good
to, like, Broadway good?

Both: Harmonicas!

Dad, let's go to school.

Um, okay,
I'll take you to school.

Oh, wait,
one quick question.

Um, who's kicking ass
at parenting

so that their fiancee
can kick ass

as a visiting artist
at Berkeley?

Who is that person?
That's you.

- Oh, that's me!
- That's you!

[Laughing]

Mwah, mwah, mwah.

Hug on mommy.
All right, uh...

Have a good day
at school.

- Okay.
- We are off.

Dance your heart out.

Got your backpack, shoes are
tied, hair looks great.

- Yep, yep.
- Let's do it.

Bye.

Pick up the pace!

You have a hat on.

I always have a hat on.

Here you go, babe.

Hi.

Emily, right?

Here you go. I brought you
some more markers.

Thanks.

I'm Kristina.
I'm Max's mommy.

Hi.

So I heard that you have
a birthday coming up.

Are you so excited?

- I'm having a party.
- Mm-hmm.

I didn't invite Max.

Yeah, um...

Honey, was he...?

Was he mean to you?

He won't lose.

I--
what do you mean?

Every time
we play a game,

he gets really mad
when he loses,

says we have to play
over and over again.

Sometimes
I don't want to,

then he gets mad again.

- Yeah, who likes that?
- I don't.

So he can't come
to my party,

'cause we were going
to play games.

Hmm.

Hi, I'm Carly.
Nice to meet you.

Hey, how are you?

- Oh! Ow!
- What?

- What is that?
- Please, you're so dramatic.

- That is really too--
- showtime.

I'm sorry. It's just funny
that you actually said that.

- Hey, hey, hey.
- I'm sorry.

Gordon,
who set the meeting up.

Right. I appreciate it.
How are you?

Good to see you. Ooh.

- What?
- Firm.

Well, yeah, I mean,
it's just a normal--

I'm not gonna do this.
Okay.

Why don't we go
into my office?

We'll talk
to Carly there, please.

Uh, before you go, do you have
any tips for her?

Maybe, you know, anything
about Carly she should know?

Um, she loves
the Rolling Stones.

[Gasps] She loves
the rolling stones.

- I can't use that.
- Yes, you can!

How can you use that?
It's a college interview.

Work that in.
There you go.

Whoa, whoa, whoa,
whoa, whoa, whoa.

Here we go.
Oh, no, right.

All right, have fun.

- Just a minute, okay?
- Bye-bye.

Carly,
this is my friend, Amber,

and we were hoping...

Hey, don't just stand there.

Keep moving.
Act normal, act normal.

Would you just
take it easy?

Tell me why you're interested
in going to Berkeley.

- It's a great school.
- Yeah.

I mean, I don't know
as well as you do,

but it's supposed to be,
you know, very nice.

That's why, you know,
I would want to go.

It is, yeah.

Yeah.

[Breathes deeply]

The Rolling Stones
are so great.

- Oh, you like the Stones?
- You think so too, right?

- Yeah, I'm a huge fan.
- Who doesn't?

Yeah, they're awesome.

By the way, sorry about
this whole thing, you know,

my mom
asking you to do this,

'cause, I mean, I guess
you probably get that a lot,

being successful,

you know, people
wanting your help

and making you,
you know, meet their children,

and, uh, it's just--

No, it's fine.
It's fine.

Listen, if you never ask
for what you want,

you'll never know if
the answer's gonna be yes or no.

Got to take the risk.

Yeah. [Chuckles]
That makes sense.

Yeah.

I-I'm just
a little nervous.

I'm sorry.

It's okay.
You don't need to be.

It's uncomfortable,
'cause I'm like,

"do I just be completely myself
and, like,

"maybe say something
that's very stupid,

"which I've probably
already done?

"Or should I be, like, acting,
like, very smart and mature,

or I--"you know?
I don't know.

You just got to be yourself,
which you're doing adorably,

and it's fine.
Okay.

I bombed
my first college interview.

- Really?
- Yeah.

What happened?

Well, I was afraid
to show them that I cared,

and, uh, so I acted
way above it and too cool

and kind of obnoxious,
and it was a disaster.

How do you know that?

'Cause the interviewer
got up to go to the bathroom,

and I looked
at his little notebook

that he'd been scribbling in
to see what he was writing,

and he had simply written
in all caps, "annoying."

- That's, like, the worst thing.
- I know.

I was, though.
I was annoying.

- What did you do?
- Nothing.

He came back,
and I continued acting cool

and finished
the annoying interview.

You kept going?
You stuck with it?

I had to.

Yeah, well,
I had to stay.

That's amazing.
That's pretty extreme.

Cool.
[Laughs]

Well, I don't think
you're annoying.

I just don't see that.
Well, thank you.

I don't think
you're annoying either.

Let's wait till
the end of the interview.

[Chuckles]
All right.

Okay, everybody,
on the count of three,

everyone's gonna take
your noisemaker

and go crazy, all right?

One, two, three!

[Off-key music]

[car horn honking]

Hey. Excuse me.

Yes?

You the guy
that teaches

that finger-painting class
in there?

[Laughs]
Uh, figure drawing.

Yes, for
the next couple weeks.

I'm Matthew.
May I help you?

Right.
I'm Zeek Braverman...

Camille's husband.

Oh.

I want you to stay away
from my wife, Matthew.

You understand?

Yes.
Sure, I get it.

All right.

Andie?
Is that you?

Oh, hey.
How are you?

I'm not--
I'm not stalking you.

I was here.
It's Kristina.

How are you?
Hi.

- Good?
- Yeah.

Listen, um,
can I ask you a question?

Okay.

I was thinking
about something.

I-I know that, um, Max and Emily
have some issues, okay?

And I know that--
that there are things

that they need to work out,
obviously.

But I had a great idea.

What if you guys, you and Emily,
came over for a playdate

with Max and I?

And they could, you know,
log some hours

and sort of see
how it goes.

I know Max has to work on
being a sore loser

and things like that.

So I thought maybe
if you guys came over,

we saw how it went,

and Max could maybe come
to the party.

- Okay, I am going to be honest.
- Yeah.

I really don't want to get
into this again.

I know. I know
that this is so awkward.

Yeah, but you're
not getting the fact

that I actually said no.
I know. I heard you say no.

But what I'm saying is that

I think we need
to help each other.

I'm so sick of this whole
"it takes a village" thing.

Look, I'm in this community.
I show up.

I am here.
You are, and I know that,

and I see that.

You know,
I know that you are

your daughter's
biggest advocate,

as I am for my son.

Otherwise,
I wouldn't be pushing this hard.

I mean, Andie,
have you ever done something

so stupid and--and asinine
and desperate like this,

you know, just wanting
to be a champion for your kid?

If you haven't,
then I'm really embarrassed,

and I will leave
and walk away,

and I won't ask you again
if Max can come to the party.

I promise you.

I have done
some crazy things for Emily.

See?
That's good to know.

I just think it could be
a wonderful thing, you know?

I have this amazing
behavioral aide.

She'll sit with them and--
and facilitate the playdate

and have a great time,
and you and I--

we can talk
or have Sushi or something.

I mean,
it could be really fun.

[Sighs]
Matthew?

Matthew?

Could you tell me what I'm doing
wrong here with the hand?

It's--I don't know.

It doesn't look like anything
that resembles a hand.

Camille, I think it's better
if we don't talk.

About the drawing?

No, about anything.

Your husband
was very clear about that.

You talked to Zeek?

When?

I don't want to be
in the middle of anything,

seriously.

Let's agree that you'll wait
for the feedback on your work

until Marcie
returns to class, okay?

Yes, very good.

[Cell phone ringing]

Hello?

Hey.

Hey.

What are you doing
right now?

Hey.

Got a minute?
Hey.

What's going on?

Uh, I just wanted
to say thanks

for setting up that meeting
with Carly.

Carly, right.

Thank you
for making that happen. I...

It's no big deal.

No, it's...

It's a big deal.

I worry a lot, you know,
that all the choices I made

haven't helped my kids,
and so...

I want them
to have possibilities.

I want...

Amber right now to have...

Whatever she wants.

Well, I-I think Amber's
a really cool kid.

Yeah.

You know why?

'Cause you are
an awesome mom.

[Chuckles awkwardly]

I mean that.

A sexy one too.

[Chuckles]
What are you doing tonight?

- Me?
- Mm.

- Hmm. Mm-mm-mm.

Dinner?

Okay.

- 7:00?
- Okay.

- Great.
- Great.

[Pop music]

- Anyway, it's "mobster."
- Really?

You can't use "mobster,"
'cause "rf" is not a word.

- Okay.
- R-f is a word?

Rf?
- I--[Chuckles]

All right.

How about...

- "begaze."
- "Begaze."

- Mm-mm. Mm-mm.
- What?

"Begaze" is not a word.

- Are you jealous of my word?
- I'm not jealous.

I'm just saying that there's
no such thing as "begaze."

Look at me
for a second.

See that,
what you're doing?

You're "begazing."
Oh.

You're "begazing."

No thank you.

That's--that's--no way.
That's what that is.

No! That's not fair!

I'm looking it up
in the dictionary.

[Bob Dylan's
Boots of Spanish Leather]

So what'd you say to him?

Say to who?

Yeah, don't play
dumb with me.

You know exactly
what I'm talking about.

What did you say
to my art teacher?

I told him to stay away
from my wife.

And I told you
nothing was going on.

Yeah, well...

I wanted to tell him myself.

It was so humiliating.

It's humiliating for you?

What do you think
it is for me?

It's humiliating
for me, Camille!

You ask me,

and you ask me and ask me
to share my feelings with you,

and when I do,
I tell you how I'm feeling!

This situation
makes me feel like crap!

And you say, "so what?"

So I went to your
little Portuguese pound cake,

and I told him
to stay away from what's mine.

What's yours?

You know what I mean.

[Loud clang]
Yeah, I know what you mean.

I know exactly
what you mean.

All this time in therapy!

Talk about change?

You haven't changed.

You don't change.
You haven't changed a bit.

- Really?
- Yeah, really.

[Tools clang]

[tool clangs]

Hey.

Hey.

What are you doing?

Reading.

- In the dark?
- It's not that dark.

I should get
a book light, though.

- [Chuckles]
- It's a good investment.

- What's going on?
- How was your dinner?

- Good.
- This is cute.

Also, I just wanted
to let you know

that the whole
Carly meeting thing...

Mm-hmm?

Was pretty good.

Here's the part where I tell you
that if you cry,

I'm gonna have to discontinue
the story immediately.

Okay?
It's like ice in there.

- Yeah.
- I'm fine.

I think I'm gonna be
all right.

I don't know.
I-I was nervous at first,

like--you know, like I didn't
belong there or something,

and, like,
I was gonna not do well

and disappoint you, and...

Then, you know, I got in there,
and I was like, "I can do this."

Like, we were
kind of similar,

and we were, like,
on the same wavelength,

and it was surprising,

and I just felt like,

"okay, yeah, maybe I can--
maybe I can do this.

Maybe I can, you know, be smart
and successful and..."

I don't know.
It felt good.

So...

I know it was probably
a big deal

for you to get the meeting,

and I just wanted
to say thanks.

It meant a lot.

You're welcome.

You're crying.

You're crying.
I did the best I could.

[Laughing]
Oh, God, mom. Please.

No!

Max, it looks like
she might win this one.

Max, what do we say
when someone else wins a game?

Nice game.

Right,
which might actually

make you want to play
again, right, Emily?

Maybe.

They're spicy.

For, like, three years,

she was wearing
the same pair of sweatpants

till, literally, they started
to evaporate.

And I have two older boys.

Finally, I had a girl,

and I could dress her up
in these cute little dresses,

but, no,
she just walked around

in those sweatpants
looking like a homeless person.

Max wore a pirate costume
for two years.

- Oh, my God.
- Two years--

Patch, everything,
the whole thing.

It was cute, though.

- What about obsessions?
- Mine or his?

[Laughs]
Hmm, that was good.

Cheers.

It's good, right?
I made this one myself.

- You did not.
- Mm-hmm.

[Upbeat music]

Let's take a break, guys.

Let's just take a break,
collect our thoughts.

Good job, you guys!

Just, uh, go work
on the set back there.

Uh, why did you
stop it, man?

Magic was happening.

Crosby, we got to--

we got to get
back to the play, man.

We got to get back
to the play? Why?

Because it's the play.

Because it's what
we came here to do.

Because they got to memorize
their lines.

I mean, Crosby, yesterday
we spent rehearsal

blowing into harmonicas,
and now you got them--

- I don't know what this is.
- It's called music, Joel.

It's also known
as having fun.

What is cuter
than little kids singing?

Seriously, why would you
not want them to sing?

Because it's the history
of California.

Who cares
about the history of Cal--

Listen, principal Taylor asked
me to come here and spice it up.

That's what I'm trying to do.
He what?

He told me
to come in here

and make sure this thing
is good,

and I'm trying to do that,

but I'm not gonna do it
with the history of California.

I got to use music and--
- Wow.

Okay.

All right.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, wait.

Joel, you're not leaving,
are you?

Listen, man, we'll put
the boring stuff back in too.

You don't like how
I'm directing the play, Crosby,

that's fine.
You just--you know what?

You--you take it.
That's yours.

You spice it up
however you like.

Joel, I don't dislike
how you're directing it.

I dislike this.

Joel!

[Band of Horses'
Evening Kitchen]

Places.

You ready to head home?

Yeah.

Boy, those little bugs
on the tomato plants--

driving me crazy.
- Yeah.

- Tenacious little buggers.
- I know.

I've tried every trick.

Yeah. Alex said,
uh, last year

a bug that got into his shoe
and went--

it was just
a terrible story.

You've been hanging out
with Alex

quite a bit lately,
haven't you?

- Yeah.
- Really, you have.

What's going on there?

Can I tell you something?

Sure.

And you'll keep it
just between us?

Of course.

I like Alex.

I like coming here
and seeing him here,

and he's
an amazing person.

He's, like--
I mean, you know,

he's had all this terrible stuff
happen to him,

and he's not bitter,

which is unbelievable.

Like, he...
[Laughing]

He just is...

A good guy.

I...

I think it's wonderful.

It's wonderful.

Well, you introduced him
to me, so thank you.

You're so beautiful.

You're such
a beautiful girl.

I'm so happy for you.

Yeah.
[Both laugh]

Yeah, look at us...
[Laughs]

Getting all emotional
over happy stuff, right?

Good stuff.

- Yeah.
- Wow.

Let's go.
