The sold out

pavilion crowd on it's feet,

smasheena can still whip up

a crowd like nobody else.

Angel's not wasting any time.

She wants smasheena bad.

Off those ropes,

smasheena ducks under.

Malfunction at the junction.

Smasheena, smasheena, smasheena.

Boo!

Boo!!!

One, two...

Whoa. What an

upset this would be folks.

Lots of fond

farewells to a legend.

Konichiwa.

Sheena dewilde, allow

me to introduce...

This is Mr. suzuki.

He represents-

extreme Japan wrestling. Oh.

You're welcome, babe.

Hey, it's business pal.

You understand.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Read the important stuff!

All right.

It was a big success.

The community raised

almost $9,000.

Malcolm!

All right.

A top scout from extreme Japan

wrestling is interested in

signing dewilde

to a pro contract.

Another impromptu event is to

be held tomorrow night so the.

President of the company

can see her in action.

I thought you were

going to relax?

Mothers don't have that luxury.

Oh, easy there, jumpy friend.

You okay?

Yeah, totally fine.

You just scared me. Hey.

Hey.

Why you guys cabbing it?

Somebody lock their

keys in the car, or ...?

It was the weirdest thing.

Mechanic told me that

someone cut my coolant line.

It happens though, right.

What are you doing out here?

Oh, I don't know.

Actually I was just riding

and I guess I lost

track of where I am.

Hello?

Tab's going to Cleveland today.

- No way!

- Mm-hmm.

Going to Cleveland,

that's awesome.

I've never been to Cleveland.

That's cool. Why is he going?

Some hot shot kid is

killing out there so he wants

to book him for

my farewell match.

- That'd be awesome.

- Yeah.

Oh, we should grab a drink then.

Yeah, yeah. My sister's

place actually is just-

sheena. Got to go.

Next flight out.

Oh, okay, well actually you can

take the cab because Corey's

going to walk me home.

Yeah.

A little celebratory drink.

For Japan.

Yeah, so I'll see you tomorrow.

Travel safe.

- Yeah.

- Cool.

Cleveland, that's awesome man.

Konichiwa!

Bye.

Here you go.

Wow, this is fancy.

Yeah. Cheers.

Yeah.

Wow.

That's bourbon,

so you're supposed to sip it.

Oh. Yes.

That makes sense because

that's really... intense.

It's on fire right now.

Oh, yeah.

So if all goes well with the

match tomorrow then you leave

forever when, exactly?

I have... I don't even know.

I'm not there yet.

God, Japan. It's weirdly

perfect though, don't you-

I mean, can't you see me there?

Yeah, totally.

It'd be weirdly perfect for you.

See, you get me.

This place is really ni...

Oh, woah,

ow! I did...

I just stood up to fast.

You're not

riding your bike home.

You can stay here.

Well, laying down.

You look really gross

in this dim lighting.

I hate being here with you,

now, in this very moment.

It's really awful.

Right this second.

It's terrible.

Guys!

- Oh!

- Jesus!

Evelyn, oh.

Okay, yep.

So I bumped into tab.

I am so excited for you.

You bumped into him where?

Now I have a place

to stay in Japan.

Can you imagine?

Yeah, I guess we'll see

how it goes tomorrow.

Sweet. Good talk.

Okay. Bedtime.

Okay, yep.

Good night.

Yeah, good night.

It was fun.

I had a good time.

I'm sorry.

Did I scare you?

What? No.

Yes, a little bit,

actually, but it's okay.

I was just making a sandwich,

and I remembered how big

of a loser you are.

Oh.

I even though about pouring

burning hot bacon fat all

over you while

you were sleeping,

how deformed your

little face would be.

I'm gonna go.

So help me, if you even

think about putting the moves

on my sister again or

proposing marriage or

whatever you're gonna do.

Do you have any idea how

embarrassing that was for me?

For you?

That was embarrassing for you?

Oh, wow, that's crazy,

because, see, for me it wa-

I am not interested.

Got it, okay.

Tell your sister

I'll see her later.

Sure a lot of anger

in this house.

Hey, I'm looking for

the Russian bison.

Are you from the beauty salon?

Swanson.

My apologies, just...

no, you don't.

I've got a groupon.

You have a-oh, okay. Okay.

Come on.

Towel.

Oh, yeah, thanks.

Congratulations on Japan.

Excited?

Yeah, yeah.

Must be hard going through life

wrecking everything you touch.

Mrs. Swanson.

We're not going

through this again.

I don't know what you're...

No, no.

Okay, this is weird,

so I'm gonna go.

Do you know what his

life has been like since

you've been gone?

Jesus.

Yeah, people have moved on.

Did he tell you

about the billboard?

Yeah.

Some jackoff yelled at him.

He was startled,

and then he fell.

What about the

mental institution?

Oh, wait.

Excuse me.

Look at this.

Obviously you're getting pretty

slack there in the

kitchen there, Dennis.

I mean, I'll still eat this,

but I think you should

give me a discount.

No?

I'm not gonna pay for this.

Oh, hey.

Andrea, I mean,

sheen, sheen, sheena.

You Luke?

Oh, what can I do for you?

You're a really good friend to

Corey, and I pegged you wrong.

It's actually really comforting

to know that he's got this

support system here,

especially if I go to Japan.

Well, yeah, totally.

I mean, we're buds, right?

Me and Corey are buds.

We're buds.

I gotta ask you something.

Mm-hmm?

I'm just super confused because

everyone is saying that he

jumped off the billboard, but

then Corey's telling me that

there was these guys yelling

stuff from their motorbikes.

And, like, what, what happened?

Do you know?

It was a long time ago,

you know, so, you know,

I don't-I don't remember.

Hey, can you pass the salt?

You okay?

Yeah, I'm frickin awesome.

I gotta take a piss.

Don't suppose you could put me

into a figure-four leg lock.

Not today.

Oh, okay.

Aaaahh! Ah!
