Let's go.

Come on, come on!

Let's go!

Mmm...

Um...

Sorry, buddy, we need

to come through. Sorry.

Excuse me! Excuse me!

That's enough, that's enough.

Let's go, come on, come on.

Whoa, whoa, hey,

stop, stop, stop!

Please tell me

these are our clothes!

They kind of are.

Are these stolen?

Receipt.

We get to keep 'em?

All yours.

All right.

Hey, can I get the check?

Who paid for these?

Probably one of the watchers

with daddy's credit card.

What?

Look!

I'm sorry, was that

a Wu-tang reference?

Staten island, represent!

Okay.

Saint mark's, 10 minutes?

Hello.

Tommy, what

does Vee think she's doing?

Have you ever

parked a car in your life?

I got this, girl.

I have no idea, Syd.

Why are you asking me?

I'm not her boyfriend.

Well, who's this biker

she's teamed up with?

I have no clue.

She just ditched me.

She's doing what she apparently

thinks is best for herself.

Yeah, and what exactly is that?

Sydney! Syd!

Vee is in the top 10.

What?

She's in the top 10.

Tommy, Vee is in the top 10?

Yeah, I know.

How is that even possible?

How many watchers does she have?

Um... like 4,471.

How many do I have?

Uh... 6,806.

Oh, okay, I have a lot more.

Tommy, I really don't think

that Vee can handle this.

I'm actually

really worried about her.

Yeah, me, too.

So get your ass to

this party and help me, okay?

Yeah, yeah, I'm on my way.

What happens if I bail?

You'd lose everything

you've already made.

My mom would kill me.

What do you wanna do?

Okay, just please no

fire-breathing dragons or knives.

No clowns.

Okay.

No snakes, no skeletons.

What about Panthers

and Tornados?

No!

No?

No!

Okay.

Whoa, whoa, whoa.

What about this?

Just a tattoo of my dad.

He's gorgeous, honestly.

He's a nice-looking guy.

Ah... okay. I got a better idea.

Here we go. Here we go.

You're gonna draw it? No!

Vee, quiet. I gotta concentrate!

No! Let me see.

Back off.

'Kay.

Can you do something

like this, but less shitty?

Yes!

Yeah?

Right.

I'm laughing 'cause it's good.

You guys, come on!

Hey, you have to trust us.

That's the whole thing.

Gotta trust me.

And dirt beard.

Ow! Ow!

Okay. Okay.

Okay, you can stop.

I think you can stop. I think we're good.

We're good.

The dare said it just had

to be bigger than a quarter.

This definitely feels

bigger than a quarter.

You're doin' great.

It's almost done.

Okay, no, I think wherever

we're at, we can just stop.

Ow, ow, ow...

Hold on, I'm just doing

the "y" in "daddy."

What?

He's kidding.

Don't listen to him.

I really don't like

that noise. At all.

Ow!

Oh, my god.

Rockin' that gold tooth.

Stop!

Okay, okay. Ow!

Wu-tang fan, huh?

My brother used to listen

to them all the time.

Oh, yeah?

You have a brother?

Had a brother.

He died right before

starting college.

I'm sorry.

How long ago was that?

Two years ago.

He was 18.

This July,

I'll be older than him.

Older than my older brother.

Ow, ow...

Hey, hey. Come on.

Stay with me. Stay with me.

He was just

one of those people that

wasn't afraid of anything.

He always said, "yes."

He would laugh so hard

if he saw me

getting a tattoo right now.

Boom! I am done.

Go to that mirror.

Celebrate my work.

Come on.

Do I want to see?

Yes, yes, yes.

- Hey.

- 'Sup, young Jedi?

Yeah, ha-ha. Hey. Yo, we miss

you down here at the club.

Um... you're watching

nerve, right?

Yeah, man, we all are.

All right, I'm trying to find

out more about this Ian guy.

Ian, my dude.

Man, he playin' wit' your

little girlfriend Vee, right?

Could be you,

but you're playin'.

All right, yes.

That's the problem, though.

But I'm looking at his profile

and there's just

nothing on the guy.

Look, b*tch, you tried Google?

Yeah, I tried Google.

Guess he's a ghost, then.

Look, I need a ticket to Aruba.

- Uh... what? No.

- Yes, come on!

No way. You're not

ready for that sh*t.

Yes, I know. You're gonna

mess up my rating.

I'm not gonna

mess up your rating.

I'm not gonna buy guns

or something, man. Come on.

Tommy, no. Not happening.

I'm... look, I'm just worried

about my friend. Please.

Come on.

All right, I'll send you

a passkey.

All right. Thank you.

A lighthouse? I love it.

Thank you.

Well, a very wise person

once said...

And this was earlier today.

They said that

the lighthouse represents

the thing that

you want the most.

So, whatever that is,

I hope you get it.

How many followers

does she have now?

I mean, to be fair, you did

tell her to take a risk.

This isn't what I meant, Liv.

This is ridiculous.

Sydney!

Okay. Now they're asking

if I can trust you. Can I?

I have the perfect tattoo

picked out for you.

Wait, wait, wait.

No, okay,

it's not a tattoo dare.

What is it?

Just says,

"go to park and 25th."

Oh, god, I love the Internet.

What?

What?

Ian's played before?

Shoot it!

Don't have to do this.

Just shoot it!

Hey, it's Vee. I'm not here

right now, so leave a message.

Here we go.

Get to 60 miles per hour.

That's it.

Okay.

All right. Easy one.

All right, let's do this.

Oh!

What did that just say?

Blindfolded?

On the motorcycle?

Yeah.

You're on your own

with that one.

Wait, wait.

I can't do this alone.

Come on, I need you

to help me navigate.

There is no way in hell

I'm doing that.

I'm sorry, I'm out.

Thank you for tonight.

I mean...

I had a lot of fun.

Got a new dress. But I...

I'm good.

Stay. Let's see

what else happens.

Yo! What's up, guys?

Venus, love your work.

Would you hold that for me?

Hold it up.

Great.

And, Ian, see you in the finals.

Who was that guy?

I don't know.

Just another player.

Vee, come on, do this with me.

Please, I need you.

Look, you'd be in control.

Say, "yes."

Just say, "yes."

Ah!

Who got next? Who wanna

challenge the champ? Liv?

- No way.

- Hey, Liv, come on!

Sydney!

Syd... Sydney!

What?

Oh, my god, you're not

gonna believe this.

What?

Are you kidding me?

You ready?

Yeah.

Chuck, you seein' this?

All right, remember,

you're my eyes.

Okay.

Green.

Hold on.

You okay?

Yeah.

Just keep your eyes open.

Okay, okay.

Hey, I know you're scared,

but you gotta talk to me, Vee.

Okay, wait, no, no, no!

You got this, Vee.

What's goin' on? Are we good?

Taxi to the right.

Right! Right! No!

You have a sticker

on your helmet!

Thank you! You're leaning right.

You need to go left.

- Left, left!

- Whoa, sorry!

Are you crazy?

- Sorry! Sorry! Sorry!

- We good?

Okay, okay!

Too far left. Right! Right!

Okay, okay.

Okay, I think that worked.

Yeah? Are we good?

Actually, yes.

Okay, all right,

just keep doin' that.

Just lean?

Yes, lean. Left or right.

You are in control.

That's good.

No way she's doing this.

Faster.

This is good.

You're doin' great!

Okay, speed up.

Yes, ma'am.

Okay.

We hit 30.

We're halfway there.

Okay, the next light is...

Green!

The next light's... green!

Good, good, all right,

you got this.

Okay, the next light is...

Come on, stay with me.
