Cloudy tits.

"Cloudy tits."

Full moon.

No.

Not that I can think of.

What about music, video games?

But they're kids.

All of their music

sounds violent to me.

Not in an unhealthy way.

Did they ever

show any interest...

In firearms, knives,

that kind of thing?

Okay.

Alright, now, what is the first

thing we need to remember

before we start?

I don't know,

don't shoot each other?

Funny. Put those up.

Alright. Let's see here.

Jack.

This one, here,

don't point at anything

or anybody

unless you wanna kill

them, you understand?

Mmm-hmm.

Point it to the ground.

You don't want to kill me,

do you?

No.

I didn't think so.

Listen.

Marks in line.

Alright.

Come on back.

Alright, you wanna give

yourself a nice wide stance.

Okay, keep your

finger right here.

Not on the trigger,

right here, alright.

Put the other hand on the butt.

You wanna hold it tight,

right, keep it close

to your body.

Bring it straight up.

Look through the front

side, keep both eyes open,

alright?

Put your finger on the trigger,

don't close your eyes.

Just like that.

Your turn.

What I wanna want you to do is,

I want you to breathe in,

and exhale,

you pull the trigger.

That's my son.

Now you're turn.

Alright, keep your stance wide.

Now you wanna be strong,

your arms wanna be strong,

alright.

Mmm-hmm.

I want you to breathe...

It's okay, alright,

keep it down, you are done.

Go get them.

Drunken cowboy.

Hey, you wanna try?

Yeah.

Are you sure?

Yeah, yeah.

Let me load up, alright.

Hey, mom.

Hey, how was your day?

It was great.

Yeah?

We shot sh*t.

What, did you hit anything?

No.

What, that's not true.

Is this your target?

I mean I didn't get...

Yes, you did.

What about you? Is this yours?

I did pretty well.

What?

Yeah.

Is that your first time with a gun.

Yeah, it is.

Ace shooters we got.

Mark shot the best you know.

Bulls' eye right there.

Bull's eye, best shot.

We're gonna go.

See you, Karen.

Okay.

Hmm.

Missed you.

You're the fun.

I have been thinking...

Yep.

How you said...

How...

We're like... A

family now, you know.

What?

Go on. What? Did I say

something like that?

You did. Yes.

Did I?

Really?

And I just...

You wanna shack up?

I wondered if it maybe...

We may?

Maybe you want...

Move in? To move all

of your things here.

Are you sure?

Yeah.

Wait, are you sure?

Yeah.

I don't wanna...

No, no, I am sure. I am sure.

little lady?

Yeah.

"Little lady"?

What are you?

Cave man?

Yeah, I think I got.

Maybe you wanna put it down I can

make you a nice warm dinner.

Yeah.

And get you a beer.

I don't know what kind

of woman your ex-wife was,

but this is my house,

my rules, you do the cooking

and cleaning, b*tch.

Get me a beer, woman.

F*** you.

That's what I like.

Jack!

Yeah.

Mark!

Come on.

Let's go.

Come out and help

us clean the stuff up.

Hey, come on, now.

Let's go, it wasn't a question.

Alright.

Hey, I almost had him.

No, you didn't.

- Hey, guys.

- Hey.

Come and get this new

bunk bed out of here.

"Bunk bed"?

Yeah.

Where do you think

you were gonna sleep?

Planning to stay up all night?

And paint each other's

toe nails.

You got it?

Yeah.

Yeah, that's what I like to see.

Team work!

Whoa, slow down.

I got you a beer.

I got you a beer.

Whoa, don't fall, don't fall.

Winter was sort of like a dream.

How do you mean?

First, everything was good.

You know, good

like it hadn't been...

In a long time...

We felt like a family, you know.

But it didn't last,

did it?

It did.

You know it did

for a while, yeah, it did.

Was there a specific

moment when it ended?

You're not gonna believe

me when I say this, but...

I think I should

take an art class.

That maybe a good idea.

Which one you wanna take?

I really don't care.

As long as

there's no one this crazy.

Of a police report,

stating that a body

has been found

in Kurt Cobain's Seattle home.

Initial reports

about the body...

Hey, what was that?

Male in his 20s,

with a shot gun wound

through the head...

Oh, no, f*** this.

Sarah, you have

to pull over the car.

It hasn't been

confirmed yet, Jack.

Pull over the car,

please right now.

Will you please pull over the car?

Yes, yes. Alright.

- Three days.

- This follows...

Jack, what's the rush?

Jack, come on.

To attend a drug...

Back to the music now

on 1027 wb2x Albany.

Go.

Jack.

Jack.

So I guess he did have

a gun after all.

Mark.

No one's asked me yet.

What?

To prom.

So? Why don't you

just ask someone?

It's not how it works.

You'll be fine.

I mean someone

will definitely ask you.

Can we just go and get high?

Yeah.

I actually wanna make

it to senior year.

Alright.

Lets rock and roll.

See you, Sarah.

Yeah, see you.

Jack.

Hey, you know what?

I just thought...

You should ask Sarah to prom.

No, I shouldn't.

Yes, you should.

No one's asked her yet,

and f***, she's really

bummed about it.

She'd cheer up

about the thing...

It's not a big deal,

you just pick her up,

you wear something nice,

you dance a little.

Tell her she's pretty.

At the end of the night,

you make out a little bit.

What is it?

I've never kissed anyone.

Shut up.

What the f***, seriously?

Yeah.

Come on, Jack, you've kissed...

You must've kissed someone.

No, I've never kissed anyone.

It just hasn't happened for me.

Holy f***.

You're serious.

Don't f***ing laugh.

F*** me, Jack.

What have you been doing?

I don't know I just haven't

found anyone I want to kiss.

It's not...

Don't f***ing laugh at me.

F*** you now.

You've never... not

even your f***ing hand?

That doesn't f***ing count.

So you only kiss your mom?

Shut up.

Jesus, Jack.

I suppose I better

teach you how to kiss.

I am sorry but are you...

I am too high...
