I'll see you, um...

I'll see you at Launch

tomorrow at 10, Wendy.

Okay.

Okay.

The self-defense classes

don't always do

what you think

they're gonna do.

It's just a self-defense class.

Can you teach it or not?

These ladies don't

necessarily need any more

encouragement to get themselves

into violent situations.

Self-defense techniques

got a funny way

of turning battery into murder.

You know what I'm sayin'?

You all right?

Yeah, yeah.

Cool.

Seriously, potatoes?

That's the best

you could come up with?

She laughed.

Yeah, she probably laughed

at you.

How many times do

I have to tell ya,

chicks dig confidence.

You can't keep goin'

in there all scared

and awkward.

Oh, Wendy, uh, uh, uh...

you let her ask you out.

That's the worst part.

You're a sad, pathetic,

little man, aren't you?

Does that make you feel good?

Come on, man.

What's the point, huh?

Twistin' those little knobs.

Don't strap on a sack...

I don't care how many

little trolls online

think Brain Tree's a genius.

You don't see it, right?

That's what it is with you.

She's never gonna go

for a social creep.

Grow some f***in' balls.

All right, look.

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry to be such a dick.

But trust me,

that's the side you gotta

show girls if you want 'em

to take you seriously.

Wendy?

Wendy?

It's okay.

Just a bad dream.

You're gonna be fine.

I'm here for you, man.

I'm right here.

Don't be scared.

It's okay.

You can talk to me.

What are you so afraid of?

Just leave me alone.

If that's what you want.

But I'm only here to help you.

Check this out.

I got 'em at the spy store.

Just sits right

in your little ear.

How cool is that?

He?

What's your biggest fear?

What did you do?

What's your biggest fear?

Not knowing what to say

and looking like

a complete idiot, right?

Well, guess what?

You don't have to worry

about that anymore.

You don't have to worry.

You can't see it.

If you could see it,

what good would that do?

Then everybody else could.

That's why it's...

way in there.

Take it out!

Please, take it out.

Calm down.

I am trying to help you.

The only reason I'm here

is to help you.

Come on.

Take your pills.

It's all good.

Take your pills,

and go to sleep.

I'll just sit here

quietly until you go to sleep.

When you wake up...

everything's gonna be better.

This is good, Jim.

It's all gonna be okay.

This is progress, Jim.

Just trust me, okay?

It feels weird.

You're gonna be glad

I'm with you.

Just wait.

You'll always know what to say.

I'll show you.

Can I help you?

Yeah, you can blow me

in the conference room,

but I'm sure that's not

what you meant.

I'm, um...

Oh, you're the computer guy.

Let me show you the server.

Now be cool.

I'm gonna show you

how to be cool.

Just do what I say,

and see the results.

Trust me.

Say, great shoes.

Say it.

Great shoes.

Thanks, I just got 'em actually.

Sorry, it's at the very

end of the building.

You could fall and break

your neck back here,

and no one would even notice.

Don't laugh like an idiot.

Say, this must be where

all the office hook-ups happen.

Do it.

Well, this must be where

all the office hook-ups happen.

Seen its share of action,

I've heard.

I'll bet you have.

I'll bet you have.

You see that?

That was flirting.

Hi.

You startled me.

Sorry.

What are you doing?

All right, say,

sorry, you look so good tonight,

I lost my train of thought

for a second.

You ready?

We're on the list, come on.

This is my friend.

F*** yeah, Jim.

Wendy's told me a lot about you.

Nice to meet you.

I told him about Brain Tree.

I hope that's okay.

Yeah, dude, I know your sh*t.

Brain Tree, your beats

are sick, dude, wicked.

Yeah, well maybe after the show,

we can all hang out.

Maybe we can like swap tricks.

Yeah?

Okay.

Look, I hope it's cool,

but I ripped a couple

of your tracks

and loaded them on

to my playlist.

I mean, if you want,

you can jump back there,

maybe spin for a little bit.

You have my music?

Come on, get up there.

It's gonna be fun,

I promise you.

I don't really... I don't

really DJ.

Come on, dude.

I primed them.

They're ready.

Trust me.

This crowd's gonna love it.

It's cool.

Dude, get up there.

You made the track.

You might as well drop

it on 'em.

Come on, bro.

How do you, um, drag this in?

Bouncer?

Okay, got it.

Let it work.

Yo, yo, yo.

We gotta special agent

up in this motherf***er,

tonight, all right?

I want everybody

to make some noise

for my man, Brain Tree.

Drop it.

I love the last track.

That was probably my favorite.

And what was that sound?

You know the sound

I'm talking about?

The one that...

you're gonna laugh at me.

The one that goes...

I think um...

I think you're talkin'

about a rece.

A rece.

I'll have to remember that.

Why do I love that so much?

It's just noise, right?

It's just like

a bunch of noise put together.

Yeah, it's like... it's

like combining them.

It's like finding

the perfect blend of sounds

and when you find it,

you just use 'em together,

and they sound like...

like silence.

I don't know,

it probably doesn't

make any sense.

It does, actually.

Hey, I hope I didn't

put you on the spot earlier.

I just feel like...

you know, your stuff

is so good,

and... and I know you have a lot

of followers online,

but, I don't know,

I feel like you should be

signed to a record label

and like out there

playing shows and stuff.

I know what you're

saying and stuff,

but I don't um...

I just want people

to be able to listen to it.

You know, I just want it

to be there if they need it,

you know, like even if they

don't have any money.

Like some people have

all these...

sounds in their head,

and they just...

I think the music helps.

Is that why you do it?

To get rid of the sounds

in your head?

Yeah.

Yeah.

It helps me be by myself.

When I was a kid,

I hated being by myself

which is funny,

because now I pretty much

only feel normal

when I'm alone.

That made me sound

like such a loser.

Wendy, you're like

the farthest thing

from a loser I've ever seen.

You just like to be alone.

Enough with the nerd sh*t.

Just take her home.

What?

Nothing.

Come on, just say it.

Trust me.

Hey, would you mind

walking me home?

You gotta be kiddin' me.

Sure.

Thanks.

I had fun.

Yeah, me too.

It's okay, sorry,

just, I wasn't expecting that.

I liked it.

I just um...

I just...

That's okay.

It's okay.

Um...

this happens.

Let me...

let me get you something, okay?

Where are you going?

I just think we should...

we should slow things

down, okay?

You gotta be f***in'

kiddin' me.

You jizzed in your pants?

Are you kidding me?

Are you 12?

She barely even touched you,

and you jizzed everywhere?

You know what she thinks

of you now, right,

that you're a pathetic loser!

I don't know how you can

go on being such

a useless f*** nut.

She's laughing at you.

She's mocking you

to her friends,

calling you a f***ing
