like record-label people.

Yeah.

He didn't say hi.

What?

Yeah, he was, like, in the back

with them all, and... you know.

I mean, he waved, but,

they're kind of weird.

They kind of just

make me nervous.

- I don't know.

- They're so weird.

They make me feel

so uncomfortable.

I'm so happy you said that.

It's not just me.

- No.

- That's weird.

Yeah, I saw him and

I was like, "Hey, there. "

You know, I don't know.

Hey, do you ever think

about dating anybody else,

other than Dan?

No.

I mean, come on.

Come on, what?

I'm happy.

Don't you ever feel like

you're missing out?

You don't get bored?

- No, I don't get bored.

- You've been with him for so long.

How do you keep

things interesting?

Yeah, like do you ever

watch porn?

- What?!

- I'm serious!

You know, spice it up

a little bit.

Hey!

She does have a point.

I'm kidding.

You know I'm kidding.

Wow.

Are you good?

Ahhhhhh!

Did you tell 'em where

all the bodies are buried?

Oh, right. Oh.

Cheers, guy.

Cheers.

So.

You want to do

the lanterns for Jess?

F***, yeah, I want to do

the lanterns for Jess.

You are gonna love this.

Go round up the troops.

We'll be out in five.

Thanks for inviting me

over, man.

I'm glad you came.

Having a blast.

Um, so tell me

about Dog Water.

Did you give it

a listen?

I gave it a listen.

Yeah, I mean, you know,

they were playing a lot

of shows that I was going to

and they just graduated

last year,

but they're sticking around.

I know they're f***ing

working at it, so.

I want you to keep an eye

on them for me, okay?

Every time

they record something,

if they're playing out live,

you come grab me,

I'll go check 'em out

with you.

Cool.

Let's go set off

some motherfuckin'

Chinese lanterns!

Sh*t.

Thank you very much.

Oh, hey.

I don't want to be

on camera and eating.

So what? You look cute

with no pants.

'Cause I'm at home.

Yeah!

Guess what - I'm a f***in'

filthy f***in' slut.

Yeah. Mmm.

Hi-i. How are you?

I'm really drunk.

Someone had fun.

Mm-hmm. I gotta show you this

band Mark just showed me.

No, not another one.

You're gonna like it.

You're gonna like it.

No, I'm sure I will.

Play it tomorrow.

What's your

f***in' problem?

- Tomorrow. Come on.

- Let me play it for you.

Just play it tomorrow.

Dan, come on.

You're being weird.

See, look -

What the f***?

You watch porn?

Were you just about to...?

Oh!

Just about to what?

No, I don't -

They said they -

They said you were gonna

get bored, so I just - I -

Your friends

are so stupid.

Do you watch porn?

Uh...

Sometimes.

- You watch - - No sh*t,

I watch porn. I'm a dude.

- Oh, my God.

- Does that bother you?

Are you bored during sex?

No.

Are you bored?

No!

Just relax, okay?

If you want to watch porn,

we can watch porn.

It might be weird.

Mnh-mnh. I'm good.

It might be fun.

What?

No.

All right.

I'm gonna go wash up.

So what'd you do

at Mark's?

It was so fun.

You should've come with me.

You would've had fun.

It was like a big party.

Mm-hmm.

And the band was there.

So good.

And then Mark is definitely

gonna sign them.

And guess what.

What?

Um, Amanda told me

that they don't,

um, keep interns

for more than a year

if they're not gonna

hire them, so...

Really?

- Yeah, but -

- Wait, she said that?

I mean, yeah, but she just

said that, I mean -

Well, she wouldn't just

say it, right?

I'm hoping.

I don't know.

She's my friend,

so she's hoping for me.

We'll see what happens.

That's awesome.

That's f***ing awesome.

Mm-hmm.

Ugh.

Don't smoke.

It's not good for you,

'cause, then,

I'm not gonna

kiss you anymore.

You don't like

kissing me?

No.

Except for when you wear

the cat pants.

The cat pajama pants.

This is very hot.

Where'd you get this

little outfit, hmm,

some sort of

lingerie store?

Really?

Yeah, I like it.

You look real fine.

How are your classes?

They're good.

I'm really sort of...

Getting senioritis,

you know what I mean?

Done with school.

I just want to be working.

But the internship is

going so well.

- Good.

- I'm just learning so much.

Everybody is really

gifted over there.

Hopefully, there'll be

a job when I graduate.

No one's said anything

yet, but -

There are some labels

in New York

that I'm interested

in, but,

I have to be here next

year for Mel, anyway,

so I think it's

gonna work out well.

Timing will be good.

Well, you know, I know

we haven't really talked

about this,

but I want you to know

that your father and I,

we'd like to help you,

if you want

to leave Texas.

We would pay your rent

and your expenses -

Really?

For a few months,

'til you got settled,

like we did with your

brother, and -

Hi-i-i!

- Hi.

- Hi!

- Sorry I'm late.

- It's okay. Sweetie!

I had to wait 'til all

the kids got picked up. Hi.

Hey.

Ooh.

What's going on?

Not much.

I'm starving.

- Yeah.

- Good.

Everything okay?

Yeah.

Great.

Very good.

Honestly, you know,

every time we talked,

I told your mom that I thought

she should sell that house,

even though the real-estate

market was crap, you know.

Yeah, I don't know.

So many memories.

I can't even deal

with it.

I know.

Makes me sad, too.

I'm gonna miss her being

right next door.

- You know?

- I love you.

- Bye.

- Thanks for lunch.

- Okay, sweetie.

- Bye!

- What?

- Amanda just texted me.

Everybody's at the condos.

Sounds fun.

I don't want to go.

The pool's so nasty.

What the f***?

You were just saying how

badly you want to go out.

Now you don't want

to go.

Not there.

- Why not?

- I don't want to go there.

Why?

Give me one good reason.

- Because I don't want to go.

- That's not a good reason.

And I have nothing to wear.

I can't go like this.

Why not? Why do you need

a f***ing outfit

for every

different occasion?

I'm not gonna go see all those

record-label people and go like this.

Who do you think these people

are? You think they give a sh*t?

They're all gonna be

really drunk, anyway.

Let's just go

and have a good time

and get the f*** out

of this house.

Please.

I have school tomorrow.

Since when do you give

a sh*t about school?

I give a sh*t about school.

What do you mean?

I have better grades

than you.

We're going.

Today's the day.

- It's gonna happen.

- Mnh-mnh.

- Yes, it is!

- No!

- Come on.

- For how long?

One drink. One drink,

and if you

are hating the experience,

we can leave.

And that's a promise.

Please.

I'm going crazy.

I have cabin fever.

- I'm gonna kill you.

- Ah! Stop.

You're so heavy.

So, can we go?

Say "please. "

Please, can we go?

Fine, but you owe me.

Yes, yes. Yes.

All right, let's do it.

Let's go.

You owe me. I'm serious.

Like bigtime.

Okay, really, whatever

you want, you got it.

You just made my day.

Oh, you gotta carry me.

Okay, I'm getting up.

I'm getting up.

Ah-oh-oh!

Help me.

Milady. Come on.

You got it?

Dan! Whoo-hoo!

Whoo-oo-oo!

Danny!

Danny, come on.

You're really not
