I mean, we knew

each other before that,

when she had a husband.

Oh, whoa, wait.

You guys hooked up

when she was still married?

- Yeah.

-Oh, you dog!

No, no, her husband was

on the way out, anyway.

It was special.

It was sweet.

We went dancing

together all the time.

Yeah.

You like to dance?

I do, I love it.

But I can never get Todd

to go with me.

Here, come here.

Really?

-Step back.

-Mm-hm.

Now, sideways.

Feet together.

Okay, now a little dip

on the back.

Sideways.

-Oh, I love it!

-Back.

So, you might wanna

bring it up.

She'll just think

it is perverted.

How do you know

if you don't ask?

Trust me.

You don't...

You don't understand.

Oh yeah, right.

I don't understand.

I forgot I'm slow.

I hate when you do that.

I hate when you

pull that card.

You're not retarded.

You're not special.

I'm not special?

I thought I was pretty...

I got special sauce

all over my room!

Good to see you, bro.

I'm gonna bring

a uv light over there.

Oh god, I bet it would

light that room up.

Feet together.

Aw, thank you.

That was so special.

Dad, don't be a pervert.

Who wants a little more wine?

-Me! I do.

-Good.

No, I'm good.

Um, I'm driving,

so I gotta...

You guys should just

stay the night.

That's easy.

Come on. Sleepover!

I think we should.

Okay.

-Here, come.

-What?

Just want to

talk to you

for a minute.

Okay, what

are you doing?

What is this?

There's just something

super important...

I just have

to talk to you, okay?

Um, you just

need to act... there.

Okay.

What are you doing?

What are you doing?

Is this okay?

Yeah.

Okay.

Uh...

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Did I do something?

-Teeth?

-No, no.

-Just tell me...

-It's good.

It's great, uh...

I just have to go

to the bathroom.

-Okay?

-Oh, okay.

Hey, what are you doing?

Nothing.

Reading.

-What the f*** you doing?

-Calm down, bro.

Look, she wouldn't

have seen me, man,

just chill out.

Maybe I don't wanna

look at my brother

when I'm getting

a f***ing blow job.

Okay, well, calm down.

It's not like I haven't

seen you before.

You are not to say a word

of that to Lindsay.

-Okay?

-All right.

Don't say anything

about that.

Why?

'Cause Lucy was

very different, okay?

Well, maybe you should tell

your girlfriend what you like.

Give me the phone.

Let me just

finish watching it.

No, dude,

I'm gonna delete it.

-Give me the phone.

-Come on, man.

-You owe me.

-Give me the f***ing phone.

You owe me.

-Give me the phone.

-Hey!

Dude! Dude,

what are you doing?

It's mine!

Come on, shonzi,

stop it!

Stop, stop it!

-Dude, no! Come on!

-Give me the phone!

Hey!

What is going on here?

He was spying on us.

Well, you didn't

have to hit me.

Come on, we're going home.

What?

Uh!

Dude!

Jesus Christ.

Oh, I wonder who that is.

He won't stop.

Oh...

Hey, do you want some coffee?

Yeah, thanks.

Hey, I'm sorry

about last night.

Sweetie,

I know he's like,

really hard to deal with,

but you really have to

get a grip

on your anger, okay?

Yeah, I know. It's just...

He just triggers

something in me.

-Yeah.

-I feel like sh*t.

You know what?

We can start

meditating together

if you want.

Yeah.

Do you wanna see

what he did, though?

I mean, I don't...

Oh, boy.

Oh, my god.

It's...

Oh, look at

your face, though.

-When you see him...

-It's not funny.

-It's funny.

-No.

It's pretty funny.

It's pretty hot.

Are you...

What do you mean?

Are you like,

turned on by it?

Yeah.

Is that weird?

Well, look.

Look, you know how

sometimes I feel disconnected.

I mean, you have me

right here, can't you just...

Like, connect with me

and just be here with me,

and just like, delete that?

It's kinda like,

porn. Porny.

I guess we haven't really

had this conversation.

I'm like,

very against it.

-Obviously, yeah.

-Yeah.

-Porn.

-Yes.

Because, you know,

these women are

really being exploited.

I read a whole thing about,

you know, the rise

of like, super exploitative,

like violent porn.

That's like, what,

men wanna watch now?

It's like, so weird to me.

Babe, I don't

wanna watch any of that.

I don't wanna watch

any of that.

I just wanna watch

you and me.

-Want me to delete it?

-Get rid of it.

Yeah, just delete it.

Yeah, okay.

-Thank you.

-You're welcome.

That would be good.

So, so far,

this one's been a lot better,

because on my last birthday,

we were serving tacos, right?

And Todd, my other uncle,

bet shonzi that

he could eat 30 tacos,

and he did.

And then he

threw up everywhere.

Like, honestly,

like everywhere.

Like, in the pool,

yeah, it was

really disgusting,

and it was a disaster,

and everybody left,

and I was all alone

on my birthday.

Get your hands off her.

-Just ignore him.

-Hm.

All right, you asked for it.

Cannonball!

Mom!

Shonzi, don't.

That's enough, all right?

Hey, guys!

Hey. Oh yeah, good.

You made it.

Hello.

Shonzi, you got me all wet.

Gross. Isn't that

your boyfriend's job?

Ew! Shut up.

No, you shut up.

Wow. That's a big present.

-Yeah?

-Thanks.

I can't stay too long.

Okay, well...

Oh, my gosh. Gotta

get you drinking, then.

I gotta go

check the grill, too.

Okay.

Dude, where's Lindsay?

She's not here.

Okay.

Any luck?

Sorry, I...

He knows we have

a parking garage, right?

Mm-hm, yeah.

He, oh, here...

Just open.

Hey, what's up?

Whole gang's here.

Um, you guys are underdressed.

I figured I'd

get out of this marriage

the way I came in.

Just like, on fleek.

And a little bit tipsy.

Yeah, you're

really late, you know?

Oh, yeah.

I apologize if I'm not

as eager as you are.

So...

I was hoping that,

you and me,

could have a word in privacy

before we commence

the negotiations.

-I think we should...

-Yeah.

We'll give you that.

-Great.

-Yeah, let's...

-Bye.

-Yeah.

So, before I sign

that sh*t, um,

you know,

I need you to do something.

Okay.

Okay, what do you need?

I wanna hear you say it.

Say what?

That you f***ing

cheated on me.

Are you...

This is ridiculous, okay?

You had your

little secrets, too.

Hm, okay.

I, we both,

had f***-ups,

but I stuck in.

You're the one

that's leaving.

What?

You stuck in?

You have this whole story

that you're perfect,

and I f***ed

the whole thing up.

You f***ed part

of this up, okay?

I'm not going

to play games.

I'm not going

to play games, no.

Okay, fine.

All right,

well then, I guess,

I'm not gonna

sign the papers.

Adam...

Don't be crazy.

Say it.

Why does it matter?

Why does it matter?

We're just getting...

We're gonna sign the papers...

Because you don't get

to be right all the time.

You can't do it.

I am not going to.

You can't do it.

Hm, right.

But was it easy to move on?

The first girlfriend

after divorce

is kind of a big deal.

I don't care as

i don't want to be with him.

I'm glad I'm not

married to him.

Still, it was like,

"hm, he's got a girlfriend."

You ever fee like

you wanna get back?

Oh, my god, no.

Hey, Lily, Jake.
