Dre: So, Junior's been interning at Stevens & Lido.

[ Flatly ] Hey, guys.

Thanks for the opportunity.

And like starting any new job,

there were some growing pains.

Stevens & Lido.

Oh, yes, ma'am, Mr. Stevens is in the bathroom,

I'll have the Italian sub.

Just make sure my meat

is on the outside of the sandwich.

I'm not even trying to touch bread.

[ Chuckles ] Got to keep my shoulders sexy.

Do you just, like, not want bread?

No.

A sandwich with no bread is just a pile of meat.

Dude.

Okay. Uh, lettuce and tomato?

Sure.

Have them put it in a bowl

and chop it up and throw some dressing on it.

So, a-a salad.

Oh, my God!

Have you not had a sandwich before?

Is it...just me?

It was taking him a while to find his footing,

but he was settling into his role of intern.

Hey, Dad. I hope you don't mind... [ Sighs ]

...but I had a couple of thoughts

for the Southland Mutual pitch today.

Okay, well, I do mind.

You're not ready. How do you know?

Because you gave me Charlie's lunch.
