Oh, yeah.

Mm, right there.

Yeah, you got it.

Oh, where'd you learn to

give a hummer like that?

Middle school.

That's funny.

Well, I should

probably split.

Can I drop you

off somewhere?

Mall or...

Aren't we

forgetting something?

Yeah.

Sorry about that.

-Get this.

-Yeah, getting it.

It's only 18 bucks.

I'll--

I'll get you back next time.

I don't think so, buddy.

Hey, what're you doing?

-Quick--

-Smile, Dale.

You are

on candid camera, motherf***er.

I just got head

from a 17-year-old.

Now playing at

a prison near you.

Okay, quit f***ing around.

Give me my keys.

I am a cop.

You're going to prison,

you f***ing criminal.

Okay,

put the phone down.

We got your

license plate on camera.

You're so f***ed.

Okay, that--

That's entrapment.

That won't ever hold up

in a court of law.

We're not taking you to court.

We're just taking your money.

It's only 400 bucks.

Is that all you got

in your bank account?

How much do you

think a cop makes?

Well, that's depressing.

You're a grown ass man.

We ever catch you trolling

for underage p*ssy again,

I swear to God,

we're uploading

that sh*t to the Cloud.

Please do no do that.

That sh*t will spread like HPV.

You f***ing... male.

Can I go now, please?

Go. Run along.

Bye, Dale.

F*** you.

You guys wanna go

to Dairy Queen?

-For sure. Yeah.

Make me the one

In diamond chains

Don't break my heart

Cause I never felt pain

Our souls still young

Yeah we never been through

Hell and back

Tell me that's not you

Keep our eyes upon the sky

Never let the feeling die

Never catch us

In our ride

Ride

We'll never grow up

Our heaven won't change

And our blind hearts

Will never know pain

Living on clouds

Never look down

Till one day we float away

We'll never grow up

We'll never grow up

No not today

And our heaven won't change

Isn't it fun

Having no fear

To love without hurt

It's crystal clear

Keep our eyes upon the sky

Never let the feeling die

When you got me

In your arms

Arms

We'll never grow up

No not today

And our heaven won't change

Eh, Mama, come in here.

Come and tell me hi.

-Hey.

-Hi.

How you feeling,

you little nerd?

Come here.

I need some--

I need love.

-Come here.

-I can't--

-It's a f***ing nightmare!

It's like nothing

is penetrating.

The finals are next week,

and I'm so f***ed.

Why're you studying

if you don't wan to?

You don't have to.

Sherman's rich.

I mean, he's richer...

and I-- I want to.

This is something

that I want to do,

and now, finally,

I'm with somebody

that is supportive of that.

At least Dad wasn't

some boring loser who

collects old pinball machines.

Can you be

nicer to Bob, please?

Just don't be

so tough on him.

I know he's not cool.

No, he's not.

But he's a good, good person.

He cares about you

very, very much.

I don't want him

in our house, in our space.

It's not just

our space anymore.

-Sorry.

-Mom!

Although, I don't know

what he'd say if he found this.

Where'd you find that?

In the bathroom, last night.

That's what I was

just looking for.

Dude, whatever you do

on your own time,

is totally up to you.

-Okay.

-But you cannot just

leave that lying around.

Sherm would have a f***ing

heart attack if he saw this.

-Mom...

-Mm hm.

Do we need ti have

another chat with Dr. Demarcia?

No. Dr. Demarcia is

a sexual predator.

He is! Why do you

always do that?

I'm not making it up!

I'm not going back to him.

I just...

Come here...

What?

I just need you to

not freak anybody out tonight.

-Okay.

You're ashamed of me,

or something?

No, I'm not

ashamed of you,

you crazy b*tch!

Just, this dinner

is very important.

All right, I just

don't want you to--

You can be scary.

So I just need you

to put it in check.

Okay?

I love you most.

Can you wash your hair

before this evening?

It just smells a little funky.

Bye!

So close!

Why don't you ever buy sh*t

with the money we make

from these perverts?

I've been saving up.

For what?

I'm going to DeVry, b*tch!

98% acceptance rate.

Dream big or go home!

Yo, check it out.

Hot, old guy is back.

He's so hot.

He's old enough

to be your dad.

I'd f*** your dad so hard

if that was your dad.

That's a good thing.

But why is he always here?

Like, he's literally never

not at the bowling alley.

I hope he's not lonely.

Oh, I don't think so.

I feel like his dick

has a tax attorney.

No, his dick could like,

pay off his mortgage.

He's too old, Erica.

I wanna hold his hand.

What're we doing later?

You wanna come

over to my place,

play Mario Kart?

Uh, I would,

but I have to go meet

my future step-brother tonight.

I don't understand.

Your mom's been

with Sherm for a year.

Like, how have you

not met that guy?

'Cause he's been in rehab

this whole time, and now

he's coming to live with us.

Cool. Maybe he's sexy

and on heroin.

Yeah, like Kurt Cobain vibe.

-Okay.

-I want that for you.

I'll see you guys later?

-All right, good luck.

Bye.

I'm so full!

Stop eating that, then.

I'm not gonna touch it.

I won't touch it,

but it's really growing.

Do you see that thing?

It hurts like sh*t.

Holy sh*t, is that him?

Damn. He's hot!

Oh, I know.

How hot is he?

That's Shorty.

That's his sponsor.

-No.

Which one is--

Now there's Luke.

in the... That coat.

Okay, you shitting me.

What's the problem?

Mom, why didn't you

tell me that he's that?

-That he's a big boy.

'Cause I knew

you'd be a f***ing c*nt.

Junkies are

supposed to be skinny.

Shut up.

Just get your sh*t together.

Hi, guys!

-Hi!

Oh, there he is,

there he is!

Hey, gang.

Erica, can you scoot over?

Erica, please?

-All right. Hey, bud.

Take a seat, Luke.

-Plenty of room. Don't be shy.

You wanna

take that jacket off?

There you go.

Okay...

You okay?

Squeeze in there,

I don't want to get your jacket.

You got to really

squeeze yourself in there.

There we go.

Here we are.

Everybody in?

So nice to meet you finally.

It's really nice

to meet you, Laurie.

Oh, so polite.

So, any special

music requests for DJ Sherm?

-We got some hard rock,

some soft rock.

-You're so funny.

Country...

How about...

Yeah, let's try that.

-Okay.

-That's pretty good.

Here we go.

I love this.

It has a cool...

little rhythm here.

DJ Sherm?

Yes, ma'am.

This music sucks ass.

Is that a good thing?

No.

Yes!

Fair enough.

We'll find something else.

Oh, my God,

it looks so...

A real sophie's choice.

Well, what are you

in the mood for, honey?

Something hot or cold?

Let's start there.

This is, uh,

on the pricey side.

I don't need all these sides.

-We could split apps.

-Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Not that.

So, Erica, you must be

psyched to have an

older brother type in the house

that can turn you on to music

and movies and comic books,

and things like that.

Mm,

totally psyched.

I get to have a complete

stranger living in my home.

-No offense, buddy.

Well, everybody is a

stranger until you

get to know them.

-That's true.
