Brink! Page #4

Look, buddy, you want to get a job,

I think that's great.

But not skating.

Dad, it's $200 a week.

Not skating!

So, Jordy, he hits the rail,

pulls it halfway,

and then he lands it right on his crotch!

Oh, man, the poor dude got worked.

I thought Gabriella was gonna need oxygen,

she was laughing so hard.

I thought he should put some ice on it,

but he just kept saying, "No ice! No ice!"

-[knocking]

-[Jerry] I need the phone.

Hold on a second.

You can use it when I'm done.

You know, we did okay after you took off,

but it just wasn't the same without you.

C'mon, man. You don't mean that.

Excuse me?

You're the captain of our team, remember?

We can't have our captain

missing any more sessions.

Hey, Peter, there's something

I gotta tell you right now, man.

-Wait a second.

-Now, Peter!

I'm getting off.

Brink, man, I'm sorry.

Stepdad Of The Year is about to go postal

on me if I don't let him use the phone.

-I'll see you at school tomorrow.

-Wait, wait. Pete, Pete!

-[dial tone]

-God!

You need more baking powder.

What?

The recipe has a large T

next to the number.

That means tablespoon.

A small T means teaspoon.

-Why are you even watching me?

-There you go.

Hey, you okay, man? It's only a cake.

Yeah, yeah.

Hey, uh...

Did you guys ever notice that

baking a cake is a lot like friendship?

Excuse me?

No, I mean...

All right.

You put a lot of work into it, right?

And sometimes it doesn't turn out

the way you expected it to...

but it still tastes good.

I told you not to eat

that spoonful of frosting.

Yeah, man, sugar can mess you up.

It's true. I have this cousin,

and she's not allowed to eat any sugar.

But one day, she had, like,

four jellybeans

and bounced off the walls like a pinball.

-It was like--

-Shut up, Jordy.

Please.

Guys, there's something

I'm trying to tell you.

-There you go with that "guy" stuff again.

-Gabriella, chill out for a second.

I got to talk to you guys

about the invitational.

Oh, yeah.

We're gonna have a good time, huh?

-Sweet.

-Hey, Betty Crockers.

Oh, love the aprons.

So, how's the training going?

I mean, the invitational's

right around the corner.

Last two years,

the team that won the invitational

did go on to win the championship.

Now, what team was that?

Hmm...

That's right.

Team X-Bladz.

Val, could you be any more of a jerk?

No, I don't think so.

Is that what you think?

You think I'm a jerk?

Uh...

Come on, Val. We're working here, man.

Hey, I asked you something.

Do you think I'm a jerk?

No.

Excuse me?

No. I don't think you're a jerk.

Oh...

Thank you.

See you this afternoon, Brink.

Yo, buddy. What happened?

Yeah, what's up with that?

You just let Val slime all over you.

He's not worth it.

What did he mean

he'd see you this afternoon?

Uh...

Who knows?

[rock music playing]

Hey, man, good job.

-Thanks, man.

-That was rad, Brink.

What was that?

Excuse me?

I just wanted to know what that was.

Because if you call that going big,

I'm gonna quit skating.

Well, we're all gonna miss you, buddy.

[laughs] Gotcha.

Hit it again.

You're kidding me, right?

Hit it again.

Come on, Val. He's doing okay.

Who's running the show here?

Who?

You.

That's right.

Do it or vacate.

Good doggy.

Maybe something happened to him.

Like what?

And please don't start

with that alien stuff again.

Yo. Whattup?

[Peter] Where've you been, man?

We've been waiting here for two hours.

I got to be home by 5:30.

Jerry's having his boss over for dinner,

and I gotta pretend

I worship the ground he walks on.

Well, then, what are we all doing

standing around talking?

Hey, did you guys hear?

Val found someone to replace Boomer.

Yeah, I heard that too.

Yeah. I heard it too.

I heard the guy was a big guy.

Big guy. Like, Korean, I think.

Wait, no. He was Native American.

Yeah. That was it.

-I heard he's really good.

-Hey.

I don't care how good he is,

he isn't better than my man here.

Look. That just means

we've got to hit it twice as hard.

So let's do it.

Yeah. Let's do it.

What's up, Dad?

Trying to fix the beast here without any

real knowledge of automotive mechanics.

What's the matter with you?

Nothing, really. I'm just a little tired.

Too much skating?

Skating? Too much? Me? No way.

Well, you won't have to worry

about that anymore.

I got you a job.

A job?

My friend, Benny,

he's got the dog grooming place.

He's looking for somebody to help out

a couple of afternoons a week.

Well, that's great, Dad,

but I don't know a thing about animals.

You babysit your sister, Katie, don't you?

Can't be a lot different than that.

Come on. What's wrong? I thought

you wanted to help out around here.

Oh, no, Dad, I do.

I just don't have the time for a job

right now.

Why?

And please don't tell me skating.

Because you know

what my response is going to be.

When do I start?

Brink?

Hey, man.

I came as soon as I could.

How're you feeling?

Not so good.

[coughing]

You look terrible.

You're soaked with sweat.

I know, man.

Look. I can't make it

to the invitational today.

I'm sorry.

Hey, no big. Just feel better, okay?
