Better Watch Out
Just your nose and
then we're done, Mr. frost.
You butt-f***er!
I'm a baby.
Boys! It's dinner time.
Come inside please.
Hey, mom.
I know I said that I would stay
home and pack tonight but...
Yeah, of course
I'm wearing headphones.
Anyway, yeah, so surprise!
I'm not home. Um...
The Lerners asked me to babysit.
What?
Sneak off and see Ricky?
Why would you, why would...
Sh*t!
Sorry.
Ashley!
Ashley, are you okay?
Hi, mom, no, no, no,
everything's fine.
It's just traffic.
Mom, look, I gotta go.
I love you.
Yeah, yeah,
come here, come here.
Come on, give me a challenge,
give me a challenge.
Oh, that's right, you can't,
'cause I'm the best.
Okay, here we go.
Damn, I'm on a streak!
"Want to put her in the mood?
Watch a horror movie.
"When we're scared,
our brains pump out dopamine
"the same chemical we release
when we're aroused."
So fear really makes girls wet?
Told ya.
Bam!
You believe everything
you read online.
It's like with the paint cans.
Oh, my god, are we seriously
back to the paint can debate?
I ended that last week.
I was unconvinced.
No, no, no, no, no,
we looked it up.
That er doctor said
that the paint can
would've smashed
the robber's face in.
Just admit you're wrong.
Only reason to read this
stuff is for the pictures.
It's a plus. I know
what women want.
Dude.
What?
She's, like, twice our age.
I really don't think
it's gonna happen.
Five years. Big deal.
My parents are five years apart.
You don't get it.
Luke, Ashley's a ten.
A solid ten.
And you're like a fi...
Never mind.
She likes me, I know it.
It's tonight or never.
Okay, go ahead.
But my brother gave me weed,
bone your babysitter
maybe we could just, you know...
Puff-puff?
No, man, I'm going
through with the plan.
Don't mess it up for me.
I mean, Luke,
for both our sakes,
I truly, sincerely hope
you get some ass...
sistance...
Uh, with that
computer problem you got.
Like, technical assistance.
Call, uh, geek squad.
They're good.
Real smooth, Einstein.
You smell great,
Mrs. Lerner.
Don't you have a curfew,
Garrett?
Yeah, but my mom said
I could stay in...
Bed by 11:
00, okay?I know.
And don't forget
to brush your teeth.
I will, mom.
I left pizza money.
Okay!
Robert.
Robert, turn that sh*t off.
It's giving me a migraine.
Yes, uh, darling.
My ornaments were conspicuously
missing from the tree.
We're not putting those
on the tree.
Bell shoes, or I'll chop your
legs off below the knees.
Are you sure you've never
sucked another man's cock?
Not even in college?
Not some lost weekend?
Fishing trip?
Secret, special friend?
Ever?
Not that I can recall.
Because, honestly,
Robert, this is so...
Meterosexual?
That's not even the word.
It's Metro.
Metrosexual.
I'm allowed to like gay things.
I need a drink.
Oh, my god, the fetus machine!
What the f***?
Dude! That is so creepy.
I'm sorry. Please tell me you
You totally do.
Shut up, dick.
You so do.
Of course not.
Hey, maybe it'll put you in the
mood while you're, you know...
She's here.
Good lord, you are breathtaking.
Thank you.
Nice sweater.
Thanks, nice tie.
Thank you.
So, uh, you're leaving us.
Deandra says that you're moving.
Yeah, in a couple of days,
to Pittsburg.
Did I give you permission?
So thank you for coming
because you've
gotta be busy packing.
Yeah, but I mean, I couldn't
leave without saying goodbye.
Wow! What
a nice thing to say.
Mrs. Lerner,
you look incredible.
Well, thank you. But I
told you, call me Deandra.
"Mrs. Lerner"
makes me sound fossilized.
Robert!
Oh, look who decided to
come out of his room.
Don't I remember something about
And don't forget the shovel.
Go on, Luke, and then
we can hang out.
Yeah, come on, you grab the garbage
and I'll get the recycling.
I don't know about you, tiger,
but I'm gonna miss that girl.
New carpets!
Damn it, rob.
Here we go.
Okay, I want to show you this.
Mmm-hmm.
We're going to do things
a little bit differently.
Lucas has been
sleepwalking again.
Oh.
No, crap!
Oh, just a minute.
Garrett, what are
you doing in here?
Oh.
Uh, do you have any itch cream?
My shoulder really... Top shelf.
Honestly, that kid
is a bad influence.
I want you to keep
an eye on him.
Once he's brushed
and he's in bed,
don't forget to give him
his sleeping pill, okay?
Then you take this pencil
and you put it
on his door handle.
See? Like that.
That way, if he stays in, great.
If he walks around, we know.
And what he doesn't know
can't hurt him.
Honey, it's time to go!
All right.
Okay, Ashley, call us if you
need anything, all right?
See ya. Good luck.
Now, don't stay up
and watch scary movies, okay?
It'll give you nightmares again.
Please don't do that. You're
embarrassing the lad.
Oh, Robert, that tie.
I know, right!
No, wrong.
Please, please, please?
Thank you.
Always be...
Prepared.
Please don't embarrass me like last year.
Oh, I promise.
Finally.
So, what do you wanna do?
Movie? Actually, I
gotta make a call.
So how about you hang out and
play video games or something?
This is just happening
so fast, you know?
I just need some space tonight.
Like, clear my head, say goodbye to
everything, if that makes any sense.
Ricky, of course
I wanted to see you.
I don't know.
11:
30.Well, if you want to break
a few dozen perv laws,
and come over anyway.
Ricky, no, that was a joke.
No, don't.
Luke!
Luke!
What? There's a spider. Kill it.
Just kill it.
Squish it!
It didn't do anything wrong.
Ash!
Ah.
Ashley!
Ashley, are you okay?
What?
I can handle myself
just fine, thank you.
The answer's still no.
Go on.
You're free now.
There you go, big guy.
Ricky, I know.
Yes, I know I leave soon.
You know you're my guy.
Can't we hang out tomorrow?
Okay.
Okay. Okay, well, maybe
Okay.
All right, bye.
Luke?
Luke!
Luke, where are you?
Luke, where are you?
Luke!
Lucas, what are you doing?
Oh, you won't?
No, you are way too young
to be drinking. Give me that.
Oh, this?
Yes, that.
Give it to me.
Lucas, stop!
What has gotten into you?
One time me and Garrett
drank a whole bottle.
He puked so bad.
He can't hold his liquor
like me.
Wow, I'm super impressed, okay?
Now, give it.
Lucas, I'm so serious right now.
Don't.
Thank you.
Oh, my god.
Pardon me.
You forgot to shut
the door, doofus.
I can't believe I'm doing this.
Hey, no, sorry, I can't...
I can't talk right now.
He just opened
a bottle of champagne.
Uh-uh, no, that is
not an invitation.
Look, um, listen, I don't think
tonight's gonna to work out.
A chance to what?
Make things harder
than they already are?
What?
Okay, you know what? That was a low
blow, and I'm gonna hang up now.
Busted.
Me? What about you, mister?
Well, I won't tell if you don't.
