Thank you.

Do you have everything

you need for school?

Yeah.

Okay, cool.

Mama, did you send out

the electric bill yesterday?

Mama, did you, uh, send out

the electric bill?

You know what?

I was gonna get to that

this morning, actually.

I was gonna take

a long walk first,

'cause I heard it was

gonna rain later

and I wanted to get

an early start.

Sounds good.

Uh, let's get you downstairs.

We're gonna be late

for school.

Oh, no, no, no!

I wanted to make you

a big breakfast.

Maybe pancakes.

Should we try to make

some pancakes real quick?

Yeah, I already took care of it,

though, Mama. It's okay, really.

But I... I want to make

you something.

Maybe we can have a little quick

treat before you head out.

Hey, buddy!

I'm just gonna try

to make you a quick...

Mama, it's almost 8:00!

Shoot, um...

Okay!

I've gotta take my pill.

Here.

Oh, can you, um...

Yeah, I got it.

Get me some water?

Wait, I take one now,

and one at, uh...

Four.

Four, okay.

Argh! Can you open this

for me, honey?

I'm just gonna try to make this,

um, for you guys.

This was Robert's favourite.

Your brother loved a bowl of

cereal with dried fruit.

He was obsessed

with dried fruit,

and he'd cut it up

in little pieces

and then put it in his cereal,

but he had to have 24 pieces.

He would count the pieces.

Thank you.

Oh, can you grab me some milk,

too?

Honey, thank you.

Yup.

And then...

Oh, you know what?

I could actually put

a little bit in a bag,

but I only have these bowls.

See this?

We're just gonna put some food

in the microwave for you.

Just press two minutes.

Okay.

Um, he would have this little

bowl that we got at Disney.

Do you remember that bowl?

Do you remember that?

You guys actually had

matching bowls,

but you didn't care,

and he was obsessed.

He could only eat in that,

and sometimes I would even bring

it up to him at night in bed.

At 10 o'clock at night,

he was 15 years old

and still wanted to eat cereal!

Okay, that's enough.

I... I just meant...

Come on, Tony, let's go.

Just trying to give you

a little... a little snack.

I'm sorry, I didn't wake up

in time to...

to do more.

What the hell, Angie?

You guys are supposed to check

with me on everything!

Especially something like this!

We knew you wouldn't agree!

Come on, it's not totally

her fault.

No, you guys,

we're fine without him!

Okay, if it's new music we need,

I can get us new music.

It's not just new music.

Then, what is it, Angie?

Do you like him, is that it?

Shut up,

he's not even my type.

No, it's not about that.

Do you?

Guys, shut up!

What did you hear?

Enough.

Don't...

Hey, wait!

Yeah, look, I get it.

She's not a bad person;

she's just a control freak.

Please, just give it a chance.

Whether she knows it or not,

she needs you.

We need you.

This school, this town,

is good for nothing

but for turning out

future soldiers.

We know it.

Most just accept it

and life goes on.

And we may very well be

the joke of the school,

but we just want a shot

at something different.

We're just tired of losing.

Yeah, I'll do it.

Oh!

Sorry.

Let me introduce you

to the rest of the gang.

Okay.

What is it?

He doesn't like it.

Tell us.

Look, it's not like

I don't like it.

It's just that...

I've seen this before.

It's like you guys are trying

to fit the moves

into the expectations

or something,

instead of just feeling the...

You know what?

Here, let's try something.

Try what, exactly?

Just dance.

Feel it.

Nobody's watching.

Just have fun.

You're gonna be sore

tomorrow.

I'm used to this.

I meant here.

First smile I've seen

in a while.

It was nice.

Thank you!

You're awesome!

Hey, Josh,

can you listen to this?

Maybe we can do something

with it.

Yeah, man.

Cool, hey,

thanks for today.

That was great.

Hey, you want to go

to a movie?

No, thanks.

You know, I liked it better

when you were smiling.

Come on, you can go back

to being angry afterward

if you want.

Give it up for the Mustangs!

Now, are you ready?

Are you ready!

Give it up for your Patriots!

Bye, honey,

I'll see you later.

Bye.

Hey, Josh,

come on in.

Uh, Jenny, two pepperonis and a

six-pack of Diet Pepsi, please.

Right away.

You rock, Jenny!

Mm-hmm.

How you doing today,

champ?

You ready for a big match?

We got Barce versus Espagnol.

Today, we're going to find out

who the real Catalans are.

Man, you mind if I leave

a couple minutes early today?

Why?

I, uh, got a date.

Wow, you work fast!

I guess it's true,

DJs do get all the chicks.

I don't know about that,

she doesn't even like me.

Hey, girls don't go out

with guys they don't like.

You don't seem very excited

about it.

It's just...

I'm seeing this girl back home,

but she doesn't even answer

her phone anymore.

Oh, it's like that.

Yeah.

You know what,

change is tough, kid.

It's... it's tough,

but it's necessary, you know?

Not this.

What do you mean,

"Not this"?

Not thi... me being here

is completely unnecessary.

What if your being here

is necessary for others?

You learn that at shrink

community college?

What does that even mean?

I'm not here for anybody else,

man.

Yeah, well, maybe

that's your problem.

Maybe you should be here

for other people.

Look, nobody's ever

been there for me.

Why would I be there

for anybody else?

That's a good point.

You know what? You're right.

You're right,

f*** everybody else.

Wait a second, is it true

that you flipped the music

for the dance team

the other night?

You know about that?

Yeah, of course.

It's a small town,

everybody knows.

Yeah, yeah, I did.

Why did you do that?

The music they were playing

hurt my ears.

You could have just left.

Are you gonna let this go?

Mm, probably not,

unless you leave,

but you...

No, you can't leave

until 5:
00.

So, I can't leave early?

No, no, no.

This is a court order,

my friend,

and I run a very professional

operation here.

So, tell me, why did you decide

to flip the music?

Why didn't you just leave?

This kid, Tony.

He's all right.

You know, his sister's

the dance team captain,

and everyone at the dance

was making fun of them.

Just sad, man.

Well, that had to feel

pretty good.

What? To flip it on them?

Yeah.

Yeah, yeah, it felt good.

Why?

Because, screw those people!

They sit on the sidelines,

and they're judging others

'cause they don't have

the balls

to get up there

and do it themselves,

and then, this poor kid

has to sit there

and listen to his sister

get made fun of

in front of everybody else.

It's just not...

It's sad, it's not cool!

I bet that made Tony

feel pretty good.

Yeah, yeah, I guess.

I'm just wondering why

would you do that for him

if nobody's ever done

anything for you?

Shut up and watch the game, man.

I can hear him coming up

the stairs.

I'm really sorry about that.

I'll just wear shoulder pads

next time.

The trailer looked good.

Yeah, I bet!

You can pick the next one.
