Drinking Buddies Page #2

in the morning

'cause I'm having

something delivered.

But you should stay in bed.

Go to sleep.

All right,

how about I call you a car?

No, 'cause I have my bike.

I'm just gonna ride.

Just throw it in the back

of the cab or something.

I'll give you some money.

No, thank you.

I feel bad.

Don't feel bad.

I feel bad.

Don't feel bad.

No, really, really, really.

Really?

[MUFFLED INDISTINCT SPEECH]

No! No!

You're gonna get me fired!

Oh, gross!

Sorry.

Get out.

I'm leaving.

[GROWLS]

Ow!

Please, please, please.

Stop it.

Now you're just being mean.

Okay. All right.

So you don't need me

to do anything.

I mean, no, if everything

is all taken care of,

then I guess, you know,

we should be fine, I guess.

Okay.

Yeah.

Are you gonna be all right?

I'm... I'm fine.

Okay.

Yeah.

I like both.

I like a short beard.

I like... I like your beard...

Well, this...

Like, if it was longer

than this,

then I'd be worried

it would be like a hipster

or homeless dot com

kind of situation.

But this is an okay range.

I like it.

Hi, guys.

Hey, how are you?

Hi. Good.

You like nice.

Oh, thank you very much.

This place is gorgeous.

Did you do most of this?

Yeah, it looks awesome.

Did you do most of this?

Yeah, I didn't do much.

I just put some plants

in the growlers and the food...

No, it looks amazing.

Why are you so stressed?

It's going great.

It's good, right?

It's great.

Okay, good.

The chocolate pretzels

are a humongous hit.

Good, good. Great.

It's hot, sorry.

It's so hot.

Just encourages more drinking.

Yeah, exactly.

I think

it's good party plan.

Ah! Sorry.

Chris is here.

I'm gonna go get him.

Okay.

I'll be right back.

Bring him back over here,

all right?

Okay.

Chris is her boyfriend?

Chris is the boyfriend, yes.

Baby.

Hey.

Mwah.

Welcome!

I was just looking for you.

Thank you.

Come in. Jess.

Jessica, he's with me.

Wow, this is great.

This looks great.

Did you do all of this?

I did.

Wow.

Wow, it's...

yeah, it's amazing.

It's a lot of work.

Yeah.

Here, I want you

to meet some people.

You guys,

this is my boyfriend, Chris.

Hey, how are you?

Chris, this is Jim.

It's a pleasure to meet you.

This is Dawn.

Hey, Jim. How are you?

Pleasure.

Hi, nice to meet you.

And this is Frank's wife.

Frank.

Amy.

Frank.

Hey, Frank's wife.

I can't wait to meet him.

Yeah, he's with Jim right now.

You left him with Jim?

Yeah.

[LAUGHS]

But, um, if I introduce you,

will you not be a d*ckhead?

And don't call me names,

and don't say anything stupid

or mean,

and don't, like,

punch me in the face?

[GIGGLES]

Get off.

All our equipment came in

from Canada.

We had it shipped in,

and we had it all rigged

and set up,

and started brewing

about three months ago.

Here you go. Good one.

Thank you.

Uh, we'll be back.

I'm just gonna introduce him

to some other people.

Great to... great to meet you.

Yeah.

Well,

then take the shoes off.

No, no.

I'm... I'm such a shorty.

Who cares?

I don't want your friends

to know how short I am.

Ha-ha!

You're the weirdest.

It's a secret.

It's a secret?

All right,

I won't tell anyone.

Hey, guys.

Hi!

This is Chris. This is Jill.

Hi, I'm Jill.

Jill, how are you?

This is Luke.

Nice to meet you.

Luke?

Yes, Luke, nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you, Luke.

Nice to meet you.

This is Callie.

Hey, Callie.

Hi.

This is Mike.

How are you? Chris.

Hey. Mike.

Mike? Chris.

It's everybody!

Pleasure, yeah.

Nice to see you.

This is his first time here.

Welcome, man.

Hey, all jokes aside,

we've heard

a lot of great things about you,

and we're excited to have you.

Really? Good.

That's great.

Well, what do you think

of the beer, man?

Um, well...

Have a sip.

Pressure's on now.

Big reaction.

What do you taste, sir?

Can you taste the hops?

Uh, I have to go take care

of something.

I taste skinned knees and...

I'll be right back.

Will you be cool here?

I will. I will.

Jelly sandwiches and...

Jelly sandwiches!

Dark clouds of puberty

on the horizon.

No, I don't know.

Where do you...

where do you teach?

I teach at Orr.

I teach Special Ed.

Oh. Oh, wow.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's... so you really...

you really teach.

[LAUGHS]

I guess, yeah.

I mean... yeah.

You have... yeah.

Yeah.

You have a Master's?

Uh, I was teaching

while I was getting my Master's.

There was a program,

and... yeah.

That's, um...

I find that really impressive.

Well, thank you. Yeah.

Oh, I'm sorry, ma'am.

Sorry.

Oh, I apologize.

Oh, pardon me.

Oh, I didn't realize

that was you.

Oh, what a gross-looking plate.

I am so hungry.

I have not eaten anything

all day.

It's all hot mustard, Kate.

That's all I need.

You know, I read something,

ah...

I think Camus wrote about

Sisyphus pushing the boulder up,

you know, the hill?

And he always pictured him

smiling?

Um...

You know, as opposed

to a punishment thing,

and I feel that sometimes

things that are really hard

can be...

can be really rewarding

because they're hard,

you know?

[LAUGHS]

Chris is a great guy.

He is, right?

He's a great guy.

He told me about you guys,

though,

that weird thing

that happened the other night.

You're a dick.

He didn't say anything.

No, he said you're a...

Have fun. Good-bye.

All right.

Thank you.

Thanks for showing me that.

Yeah.

Hey, man, it was really fun.

You get a tour?

Yeah, I did. I did, yeah.

I gave him a tour

of the whole place.

Yeah, it was kind of awesome.

That's cool.

He got into it.

Yeah, um,

who cleans all this up?

You're looking at

the cleaning crew right now.

All right, can I help?

We're gonna clean it up.

You guys go.

Really?

Yeah, I talked to Mike

and Frank and the guys.

We're gonna do it.

You set it up.

We'll clean it.

We'll stick around if...

No, you guys, honestly, go.

You've done enough.

See what I just did?

Yeah?

See that?

Thank you.

All right, okay.

I won't say no.

Good to see you.

It was so good to see you.

You too.

I'll see you soon.

Hey, it was a real pleasure.

Yeah, it's awesome.

Congratulations on, you know,

the thing.

All right,

I'll see you at work.

Really great to meet you.

I heard that we might stop by

your tasting this weekend.

Oh, yeah.

No, I hope you do.

I'm there from noon to 2:00,

so whenever you guys want.

Ice cream brunch.

I love it.

Good night, guys.

Bye.

Good night.

I'm not cleaning.

You're cleaning.

I'm not cleaning.

Oh, you're cleaning.

I'm not lifting a finger.

[LAUGHS]

Yeah. No, absolutely.

It's...

we have one, two...

I have nine tastings

this month,

but I can put you in.

Kate...

Jill's outside.

I'm ready.

I just have to finish.

Then let's go.

I'm going.

But I can do this next week.

Not this weekend.

Nope,

I have a festival this weekend.

But I can do this next week,

and I'll bring whatever

year-ends we have available.

Okay?

Thank you.

I'll call you on Monday.

Okay, bye.

Have wallet...

All right, I got it.

All right.
