and the...

I got it!

I got it!

What, wait, wait, I'm not

finished.

Danny, you're really talented.

Oh, thanks, I mean, it's just

a hobby.

Collecting beer cans is a hobby.

You should really think

about becoming an artist.

Yeah, that would go over

real well in my house.

These are awesome.

Have your parents seen your

work.

Um, you know, not

really, just a few things.

You can't take that job at

Bridgetown.

Why not?

Test, you're an artist.

Yeah well, what kind of

job is an artist anyways.

I mean, you know what, I'm

supposed to just give up

a future and a paycheck to

paint supermarket murals?

That is your dad talking.

You have something special,

and not very many people can say

that.

I really appreciate the advice,

what the hell to do

with my life right now.

Okay.

I'm sorry.

It's none of my business.

I'm sure you'll figure it out.

Let's go.

How you feeling?

I'm coming around.

Great, because it's time for

you to go.

You've outstayed your welcome.

You don't have to be rude Becca.

This is a girls only weekend.

Forget it.

Great!

She's pleasant.

Sorry

hey!

Mr. Whitaker?

What are you doing out here?

Some of us actually came to

fish.

Oh, catch anything?

A few rainbow, but nothing much.

Yeah, you seen Danny?

Not around here.

I don't, I don't think he came.

Alright, thanks Ronnie.

You guys fish, at trout camp.

Dorks!

Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo.

Oh my god stash, what

the hell are you doing?

Don't worry,

we're all getting laid tonight.

Fire!

I know you were trying to help,

I'm just,

figuring what I want to

do with my life right now.

Well, sometime,

when you're alone,

I want you to close your

eyes, and try to picture

how you imagine your future.

Where you live, where you work.

If you see yourself in oil city,

hanging out with your friends,

working at the plant,

then maybe that's your answer.

But, if you have trouble

imagining that,

I think that's your heart

telling you that

you need more.

Wow

that's deep.

Alright, now let's get you

lost, again.

Mr. mulligan?

Pete?

I'm trying to right a wrong,

what are you doing here?

Hey, wait a minute, you're

mulligan?

Yeah, I'm mulligan.

All these cockamamie ideas about

college into my kid's head.

You're confusing him.

I'm trying to set your kid

on the right path in life.

That's his father's job.

Yeah, well, no disrespect,

shouldn't do something

great with his life,

just because you haven't

done sh*t with yours.

Watch it fucko, I wrestled

in junior high school.

Okay sh*t bag, come on, bring

it.

Lucky for you, my balls itch.

Danny!

Are you okay?

Danny!

You scared the crap out of me.

I want to kiss you.

I'm rocking' tonight

I'm walkin' on air

gonna find me some trouble

gonna grab my share

I want you tonight

I want you with me.

Like father, like son!

Make me guilty of love.

I admit it

in the first degree

when I put on that country

station and I hear Phil from the

hill,

I get a little tingly.

It takes a little

bit more than that for me,

but you're a freak.

You want it all right

we're going in style

say you walk right

you talk right

and your hair's so wild.

Alright, I think I'm gonna hit

the sack.

But it's so early.

I know, but I'm just beat.

Wait for it.

F***ers!

Moonlight in the city

brings the magic to your eyes.

Freezing a moment

leave me paralyzed

breathe an emotion.

Wait for it.

Set it dancing in my ear

bring on the rhythm when I

hold you near

take me in your arms

roll me through the night

you been schooled in the art

of romancing me

There's a snake in our tent!

Way down inside now what?

No one's stopping us now.

You girls can uh,

we go down down

where the music's loud

and we can figure it out

if it's all right

in the morning.

Hey its alright by me.

Hey, that's a good idea Todd

go and play on my love

I'll be right back.

I can't believe this happened

to us.

I don't think you girls

were like in any real danger.

Are you kidding?

Those are royal pythons,

they feel threatened enough,

they'll absolutely kill you.

Wait, how did you know

what kind of snake it was.

Wait, you put that thing in

our tent?

You a**hole!

Ow!

Hey, we didn't know, what

he was going to do alright?

Just, I swear.

You know what, I believe you.

That's my face.

Aw sh*t!

We're getting a new

f***ing spot next year.

Danny's old man's coming this

way.

Guys in the tent, girls

you don't know us or Danny.

Go, go, go, go, go!

Stash, let's go!

You're not the boss of me!

Stash!

No way, what's up man?

It's Pete.

We used to hang out all

the time in ninth grade.

Which time?

My first, your second.

Oh yeah!

Presto Pete?

Hey, yeah man.

You could smoke a

little joint with one hit.

I don't know what you're

talking about.

Jesus Christ, has anybody

seen my son, Danny Whitaker?

Who's in there?

She's changing out of her

bathing suit.

I just need to check real quick.

Are you crazy?

Alright, sorry for interrupting

girls.

Yeah, like stash would hang

out with a dork like Danny.

Hey, hey stash, can I, joint?

For the road, out here, you

know.

Pete!

Sorry man.

See you Pete.

Finally, it grew back.

You can see that line right

there.

I bet that hurt.

It did.

Who's open for business?

Excuse me?

You're at trout camp.

Every girl at trout camp is

looking

for some tube steak, right?

Oh my god, gross.

Shut up stash, you jerk.

Whatever Scott.

She's cross-eyed.

Shut up!

God, this sucks!

Hey, you guys wanna go for a

walk?

Let's go.

Where are you going?

It's your loss.

Come sweetheart.

Watch the teeth!

Watch the teeth!

We've been to pit hole and back,

where's this little sh*t hiding

at?

Well, maybe he's not here.

Yeah, right.

I mean yeah, maybe you're right.

You know what.

Let's call it.

I'm beat.

I thought I just heard my

dad's voice.

Out here?

Yeah, yeah, you're right.

You do have some issues to

work out.

Are you sure about this?

It's pretty f***ed

up, even for you Becca.

Think about baby Moses,

being sent down the Nile, in a

basket.

That was so Moses wouldn't get

killed.

Exactly, so this a**hole

should consider himself lucky.

Allison?

Oh god!

Oh my god.

I know you took it you bastard!

I did not!

Yo guys!

What's going on?

Dude, where the hell have you

been?

Long story man.

He took my prize winning trout.

Alright, alright, alright!

Now, he's

going to call me a liar.

Listen, if you don't

want the whole town to know

that your latest girlfriend

had a set of gills...

I'm going to bury this a**hole.

Yeah?

I suggest you drop it.

Dude,

look dude, your dad and Pete

were out here last night

looking for you.

Yeah, no one saw, we hid.

We gotta get out of here.

Now!
