- Yeah, I don't know.

Hey.

Yo, finally. Jesus.

- I know.

- Come on, bring it in.

You guys feeling a try to buy?

- Wanna touch 'em?

- It's all right.

Hey Spence, you got any sh*t on you?

No, but Logan's around.

So you can go check with him.

And your kegs are out back.

- Thank you.

- Sure.

Hey, what's up, man? I'm Spence.

Is that some kind of bear speeder?

What?

Is that some kind of bear speeder

or a stealodrone rider on your shirt?

Yeah, no.

It's, you know, enterprise and trek sh*t.

My parents stole me when I was a baby,

but I still think they are pretty cool.

That's tight.

You want a beer?

Yes, I would like one of that.

All right, cool. Follow me.

Okay.

...eight, nine, ten,

11,12,13,14,15,16...

Hey, yo, send me that, all right.

...18, 19, 20...

Hi.

Hi, I'm James.

I really like your clothes.

Hey, man, everything good?

Yeah. Just meeting some new people.

Dude, yeah, I don't even know

who those guys are.

I mean, they look like d*cks.

All right? Don't worry about them.

I told them I liked their clothes but...

Actually, I think maybe... I think maybe

I like my clothes a bit more.

Hey, you're... you're Aubrey's brother.

Right? And you were...

You were stuck in the same house

for, like, your whole life?

I went on the roof sometimes.

That's a good call, dude.

Well, cheers. To...

Hey, this is your first party, right?

Dude. Sick!

- Dude, let's turn up, bro, cheers.

- Yeah.

- Turn up. Let's turn up.

- Turn up!

But this is before the collapse

of the third federation

when everything changes

and Brigsby becomes an outlaw.

But he's still a good guy,

even though now he's got to...

Now he's gotta work

with the stardust bandits.

So, sorry, what are we talking about here?

Like a trained bear?

- Brigsby?

- Yeah.

Yeah. He's trained in space combat,

puzzle solving, quest.

And I guess he also happens

to be the best version of yourself

via series of life instructional lessons.

Plus he's got rainbow eyes too.

How do the rainbow eyes work?

It's... I don't know.

If you ever need a rainbow,

- you get a rainbow.

- That's insane. I love it.

Yeah, it's insane. I love it, yeah.

So, does it fix people?

Yeah. It provides an energy and positivity

that will make anything come to life,

I guess.

That's amazing.

How many episodes?

It's 25 volumes, 736 episodes total.

If you ever want to see it,

I've got it on tape, too.

Dude, please.

That'd be dope as sh*t.

Yeah. Yeah, it's pretty dope as sh*t.

- Hey, James, do you want one of these?

- Yeah.

Also did I say that

there's going to be a movie?

- What?

- Yeah, I'm making it.

I'm making a Brigsby movie.

- Nice, man.

- That's awesome!

- Dude, can I be in it?

- Yeah, well, we'll see.

You guys are in it. We'll see about you.

I'm just kidding. Yes, I want you in it.

Are you okay?

Let's go sit down.

Sit here. All right. Careful.

Here you go. Here, drink this.

Don't worry.

My first time rolling

was intense, too, but...

Once you just relax and let go,

it feels really nice.

I'm not used to it.

There's probably a lot of stuff

you've never done, huh?

I guess so.

Have you ever been with a girl?

Mmm-hmm. On the Internet.

But that was really just my first parents

playing tricks on me.

Just... just relax.

That feels very... that feels very nice.

Thank you for...

Thank you for what you're doing.

That feels very good.

Thank you for that! Goodbye.

Thank you for that.

- James!

- Sorry.

James. What are you doing?

You're embarrassing me.

I'm very sorry, Aubrey.

Ahh.

James. Dude, hold on.

Thank you for my first party, Spencer.

Yo, James, where you going? Yo!

James, hold up.

Ahh!

James!

Where are you even going, man?

Sun snatcher!

How are you possibly

this wasted right now?

Stay away from me, snatcher.

Did you and merideth smash?

No. Tricksand!

What happened?

Oh, sh*t. There he is.

You just started tripping.

You passed out in the backyard.

So, I just brought you in.

And Aubrey talked to your parents,

so you're good, dude.

I'm really very sorry, Mr. Spencer.

Dude, it's just Spence, bro.

- Spence.

- Yeah.

Is this stuff from a show?

Oh, dude, no.

Man, these are the classics, dude.

You got a lot of catching up to do, bro.

Wait, whoa, what's all that?

Oh. Did you do that?

No, this is just some bullshit, I guess.

Well, and...

Yeah, you know, I'm still learning and...

I want to go to college for it

or something.

It looks like it's going well,

and maybe you could do more of it.

Yeah.

All right, so these are

the best of volumes 14 to 25.

That's when the show

started getting good.

Nice. Oh. Donald duck's in this sh*t.

No that's goody goose.

He's the top pilot

in the starsquad alliance.

Well, he looks like Donald duck.

It's this cartoon character.

Well, it's not. It's goody goose.

Yeah, oh and I'll get these to Aubrey

when I'm done. Cool?

- Cool.

- All right, bro.

All right, bro.

I'm sorry, James.

Tell me again, what is this for exactly?

That's a list of everything I need

for the Brigsby movie I'm making.

I need all the cameras

from my old dad's Brigsby set.

Any props, costumes, all that.

Oh, also,

I need to find the smile sisters.

Whoever they are in real life.

You guys got the stuff, right?

We do, but it's part of

an ongoing police investigation.

Okay, so after that?

After that it becomes police property.

What do you say

we keep this between you and me?

I can't accept that.

Then I'm taking it back.

- Don't be mad at me.

- I'm not mad.

I'm just a little more rich.

Hello, James.

Still hanging around, huh?

I feel like I wasn't clear earlier

about what I'm trying to do here.

Try to imagine a hero.

And he's not on the bad side,

he's on the good side.

But he has to go against

a guy on the bad side.

So that's why he decides

he's going to go on an adventure.

Plus, it's not on a TV,

it's on a screen so big

you're going to feel like

you're in another world.

Right. No, I know what a movie is.

And I think it's really great

to be creative.

I actually performed in a lot of plays

when I was in high school.

- No way.

- Mmm.

Prospero.

The tempest.

"I pray thee,"

"mark me"

"that a brother could be so perfidious!"

"He who next thyself, in all the world"

"loves a..."

I don't remember the rest of it.

But, you know, it's...

That was so good. That was... what?

I didn't have any time to prepare

anything so it was just...

- Thank you.

- No, that was amazing. Do you do theaters?

No, I'm just saying

I know what you're trying to do.

And I think it's...

I think it's great, James.

Why?

Why what?

- Why don't you do it anymore?

- Act?

You know, things change.

You get older, move on.

I do this now.

It's very sad you didn't get to do

what was important to you.

Bye, detective Vogel.

- Detective?

- Hey.

You lookin' for something?

No.

I thought I left my keys in here.

So, what do you think?

Uh...

We got world geography, very fun.

And European history,
