You should tell mom what you saw.

No.

Jay.

I'm worried about you.

I could.. stay over tonight,

If it would make you feel any better.

- No.

- No.

Sleep on the couch

or something.

No.

Maybe just on the couch.

You should be more

worry about waking up

and finding Paul

humping you leg.

Um...

I choosing to ignore all these insults

to my character.

Just,

keep your door locked.

Look.

I'm going to stay up all night,

And keep an eye out for anything weird.

Nothing is going to happen,

okay.

I can't sleep.

Not in there.

That's okay.

Just sleep here.

Are you okay?

Everything is going to be cool.

That's funny.

I haven't spent a night over here

since we were kids.

There's a reason for that.

Shut up.

I'm...

serious.

It's cool spending time with you.

Yeah.

You're my first kiss,

you know.

I know.

Is that not yours?

No uh.

You were.

And then you kissed Kelly.

She told me.

You kiss your sisters,

the time.

That we found those

porno magazines

in the alley by Barry's pizza?

Yeah.

We're such stupid kids.

Ridiculous.

We are all

sitting out on Greg's front lawn.

With a dozen dirty magazines.

Just sprawled out everywhere.

and we were laughing.

And we didn't realised

how bad it was.

Oh, and Greg's mom.

Remember her face when she came out.

And saw us reading that sh*t.

And she scooped them up so fast.

And then she called me mom.

Kel and I got the sex ed talk

the next day.

I got one too.

What ithe f***?

Go look.

There's a broken window in the kitchen.

But...

... there's no one there.

Are you sure?

Yeah. I mean whoever broke it

must have run away

Maybe we should call the police.

I'm going to wake up your siser.

She should call.

Jay.

Jan.

Can you open the door?

It's in the house.

What's going on?

There's nothing in the house,

Jay.

I saw it.

Open the door.

Okay.

It's in the kitchen.

I'm not going to let anything

happen to you.

Open the door,

and we'll figure this out.

There's nothing out here.

Okay.

Jay, why don't you just sit down.

I need water.

Oh, I got to need water.

Okay, I'll get you some.

No, stay here!

Is something wrong with me?

Look, somebody broke the window,

But I saw a girl in the kitchen.

This isn't real.

I swear to you.

If it kills her.

It gets me.

It goes straight down the line,

whoever started it.

Jay.

I'm sorry.

I wasn't trying to hurt you,

okay.

Someone did this to me too.

Okay.

Who did this to you?

I met a girl at the bar.

Its a one night stand.

I don't even remember her name.

I think that's where it came from.

Jeff.

I don't believe you.

She might.

But I think you're a f***ing liar.

What you're doing to her

is some f*** up sh*t.

Do you guys see that girl

right there?

- Yeah. - Uh huh.

- Yes.

Yeah.

Okay.

Okay.

Good.

Jay,

listen.

Wherever you are?

If someone walking

straight towards you.

But it is walking.

If you try falling off.

You could buy yourself

some time, I think.

Decide if you want to

give to someone else.

Um.

Greg?

Yeah.

Your mom is not

going to freak out?

She won't even know.

It's really nice of you.

I love coming up here.

My dad,

he uh...

He used to take me hunting

a couple of times a year.

It's not like super nice,

but..

It's cool.

Have you thought about what he said?

What?

Maybe passing it on?

I don't know.

Still like sticking around when

everyone is going home?

It's a bit lonely.

I'm right across the street

you know.

I remember.

I guess I should've been

nicer to you.

You guys should get

into the water.

You want to?

Maybe a little bit.

Come on.

Oh. Oh my God!

Help me.

Jay,

Please help!

Help me!

What are you doing?
