Yeah, that's my way

of saying thank you

for letting me have

a seventh-grade style,

no frenching,

no touching sleepover.

Yeah, dude,

no worries.

Seventh-grade

sleepover style.

I'm sorry that I, like,

totally dingleberried

onto your night.

Are you kidding?

That was so fun.

You crashed here.

No big deal, dude.

- Yeah.

- Why is your hand

like that?

- Move your hand.

- Because I didn't

brush my teeth.

Well, I don't care.

Come on.

What time

do you think it is?

- Okay, yeah,

you should put...

Can-- can I use

your toothbrush?

Of course.

It's the white

and teal one.

It's not like

the robot alien one

that Adam has.

- That guy has

a dorky toothbrush?

What a shocker.

Hello?

Come on in, guys.

- Boy:
I'm hungry.

- Hello?

- You're hungry?

- Yeah.

Josh?

- - You think they're

still asleep?

- This is a mess.

- Oh, my god.

Hey, get him over here.

Come here, come here,

come here.

Man:
There is somebody

under the coffee table.

You're right, buddy.

- Hey.

- Hey, I'm Eric.

Hey, I'm Aaron.

- Aaron, hi.

- Were you sleeping? Hey.

Are you okay?

You got...

- And who's this guy?

- ...A little--

that's my son.

Hello. Hi.

Nice to meet you.

- Hi, nice to meet you.

Are you--

did you get hurt?

- What?

- You just have a little...

Oh, no.

It's just allergy season.

There's like, a gun

sitting here, man.

Could you do me

a huge favor, man?

- Could we just kind of

get this area picked up?

- Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Do you guys-- do you want

any of this before--

I'm joking.

- I'm all right.

- Little kids love this stuff.

- Okay.

- Aaron:
Where is Josh?

Josh?

He's not

under the table.

That's the extent

of my knowledge.

I found everybody,

and I cleaned

the f***ing bleed--

no, just--

- sorry.

- Woman:
Ah, hey!

- Cleaned up my nose.

- Woman:
How's it going?

- Here they are.

- Thanks for coming.

- Nice to see you.

- Thanks for having us.

- Yeah, man.

- Good to see you.

- Good to see you, too.

- Yeah, thanks.

- What's up, dude?

- What's up, man?

- F***ing lumberjack?

Nice to see you, man.

Thanks for inviting us.

Sorry we just rolled up now.

Looks like we missed

a lot of the action, but...

- Hi. I'm Jodi.

- Oh, hi.

Hey, how's it going?

I'm Anita.

- Hi, Anita.

- Hi.

- Nice to meet you.

- Yeah. Nice to meet you, too.

How do you g--

how do you know these guys?

I just met Ari

in the bar last night.

In the parking lot,

actually.

Yeah, we all met.

Everybody met.

Oh, so you spent

the night?

- Yeah, yeah. I slept.

- We took her in.

With a lot of liquor

in my system.

- Wow! That sounds

like a fun time.

- Little orphan.

Little stray.

Um, you guys hungry?

Should we, uh, keep

the breakfast train going?

You know, I'm good.

You know what, actually,

my friends probably

think I'm dead.

Truly, they probably think

i am like kidnapped

and chopped up,

- so I'm gonna go.

- Okay.

- But, please, do your

whole thing. I'm sorry.

- Oh, yeah.

- Great to meet you.

- Nice to meet you. Bye.

- Guys.

- See you, Jodi.

- Bye, Jodi.

- Do you want me

to drive you?

No, I'm fine.

I'm gonna walk it off.

- It'd be good.

- Are you sure?

- I think I should

drive you home.

- No. Why?

You're-- and now

you make me-- I'm...

- No, I'm not making any...

- I feel like I crashed

your weekend.

I'm, like, literally

not trying to stay.

- I'm gonna go.

- Okay.

- Okay. Cool life experience.

- Yeah.

- Bye.

- Over the course of the day...

- Here, you can wipe that

on here.

- Hey, Jude?

- What?

You wanna know

what your uncle Greg

does for a living?

- What?

- I make every candy

in the whole world.

No, he's not

your uncle Greg.

If you've tasted a candy,

i made it in my kitchen.

- Jude:
No.

- Greg:
Yeah.

How you doing, Josh?

Are you talking to anybody?

Are you seeing

a therapist?

Does tonie count,

our dealer from last night?

Yeah, that's perfect,

yeah.

Drown everything

in drugs and--

and that's just,

like, the best...

Oh, our Blackjack

dealer last night.

We went to a casino.

All I hear about is, like,

the bars you guys went to,

casino you went to.

Like, has anyone

brought this up?

Like, are you guys

discussing this at all?

Or are you just pretending

it didn't happen?

I totally hear you,

but to me,

it feels like

time and place.

I'm here to do

what Joshua wants,

and it seems to me

like Joshua got us together

to have a fun weekend

where we can just

f***ing cut loose

a little bit.

Great.

Let's all go get drunk.

Let's also

not pretend, uh,

that the reason

we're here

isn't something that was

super traumatic

for our buddy.

Even if he's

going through it quietly,

even more of a reason that

it's our responsibility

to bring it up

and talk about it.

Uh, thanks

for chatting out here.

Yeah, what's up, man?

You like running

interference in there?

- No.

- You're, like,

a party wing man

- who can't get serious?

- What?

- What's going on?

- No, I'm just here

to have a good time

because that's what

Joshua seems to want

to have this weekend.

Well, I think that

the good time happened.

- Oh, okay.

- And I happened to meet you

under a coffee table

- with a f***ing bloody nose.

- And I apologized about that.

Check off crazy party night.

You got it, man.

- Okay.

- Congratulations.

- Well, congratulations

for showing up

- 100% success.

- With the family.

- What does that mean?

It means this was,

like, a boy's weekend.

Where did it say

boy's weekend?

Where did it say

bring your wife

and four-year-old son?

Where'd it say not to?

I was on all the same

emails you were.

By the way, speaking

of my wife and kid,

I don't appreciate

bringing my four-year-old

into a room

that's, like, coated

in cocaine powder

and having to basically

pry a gun out of his hand

and move the bong

out of the way!

You think-- you think

i would have just, like--

if I knew your kid

were coming,

I would have

laid out drugs...

You offered him cocaine!

He is four years old!

- As a joke!

- Yeah, I suspect

that you would've...

My big mistake

is realizing

that your son had

the same f***ing lame

sense of humor as you

- oh, yeah, that's really funny.

- And couldn't get a joke.

Yeah, that's awesome, man.

What a cool guy.

- But maybe

if he wants to get---

- hey, nice to meet you, buddy.

- Nice to meet you too, man.

- You know what?

Go f***ing

do some more cocaine

and f*** yourself.

All right, bud.

Good hangs!

- Jude:
Where are we going?

- All right, is he buckled up?

Yes.

- Eric:
There you go, baby.

- Greg:
Yeah!

- That's a capper.

- Ooh, ditty, ditty,

ditty, ditty.

I didn't mean to step

on your sh*t, Eric.

I just feel taking mushrooms

and chilling out is, like--

- I don't want to go anywhere.

- No. I totally get it.

And you know what?

Like, we did some

boozing last night,

and I think mushrooms

are the play.

- Hey.

- Hey, how are you, bud?

Thanks for, uh,

coming to fix this.

Oh, no problem.

It's just an
