you know, he's not the only one

who's doing something

wrong all the time.

He's not just being told,

"that's not okay."

Yeah.

You're saying, "i did

something that's not okay."

Yeah.

Or, we could just

drop him off at Nina's.

This is the kind of thing

that we need to

deal with, okay?

Okay.

-Okay?

-Yeah.

Is that creepy?

Just maybe try to look like

you're looking at something

sexy, though, you know?

I can do sexy.

I'll go like this.

I'll be like,

I'll imagine

two people making out.

Okay?

I'm not gonna say what

two people...

Okay, buddy,

we can't use the shot

if you're talking in it, okay?

Let's get this shot with

you standing still, okay?

Okay.

I think it's us.

That's ridiculous.

I know, I know.

I'm just trying to...

It's less of like a face.

It's less of like a...

Any of that.

I think it's more just

like a blank face.

And no talking.

I think we just need,

just like a few

seconds of you just,

standing and saying nothing.

Just not talking.

How many seconds?

Like, thirty.

One, two...

Don't count, dude.

Don't count.

I want to get it right.

How am I going to...

I'll tell you.

Okay.

I think we got it.

-Yeah.

-I think we got enough, yeah.

We got it.

Relax, Todd.

She said we got it.

So, Todd,

if you don't mind,

just explain a little bit

about what it is

you like about videotaping

yourself and your girlfriends.

I don't know, um...

It's just exciting...

To know that a girl is willing

to do that

for you because she

likes you that much.

I guess.

I mean, I guess the thing

I'm wondering is why...

You want someone

to put themselves

in an

uncomfortable situation.

Like, when you're in love,

you do things

for the other person,

even if it makes you

uncomfortable, right?

Like when we were

dating at first,

when you were married,

that was kind of

uncomfortable for me,

and I, kind of,

hiding that, but,

I did it, and

i don't know, I just,

I guess I wish

you would humor me.

Right. It's a give and take.

It would be a

nice reassurance.

A reassurance...

Of what?

That you're not

gonna leave me

when things get bad,

like you did

with Adam for me.

I wanna do the videos

because it's like

a way of controlling

the situation,

because even if you do leave me,

I'll still kinda have you.

I know how hard that is.

I'm so proud of you

for your honesty

and for telling me all this.

I love you so much.

I love you so much.

Yeah.

Guys,

we're still rolling here.

Can we focus a little bit?

I don't know,

I feel like we got

so much good stuff.

Like we got really,

a lot of really, um...

What?

Aren't you gonna

ask me some questions?

Tomorrow.

Yeah, we gotta

hit the sack, dude.

Yeah.

Yeah,

we're gonna, um...

But thank you for helping.

You were such a great help.

You were wonderful.

Thank you, um...

The remote's right there,

you can watch

whatever you want.

Okay, well, just go

right to sleep, guys.

We can get

an early start tomorrow.

No funny business, all right?

I love it when

you kiss me there.

Where else?

Right there.

Right here?

Hey, guys!

Not now, dude.

Well, guys, I started

a fire by accident.

I'm really sorry.

Not now, buddy.

Help!

There's smoke everywhere.

It's all right.

Oh no, honey, wait, look.

What did you do now, dude?

What the f***, man?

Gotcha.

Jesus Christ.

You really think

I'm so stupid

I lit the house on fire?

Yeah, maybe.

Looks like you guys got

your own fire going on here.

What do you want, man?

I got this great new idea

for the film.

Okay, it's gonna have to

wait till tomorrow.

I'm sorry.

Wait, wait, wait.

Lindsay, please can I tell you?

I don't wanna

forget it. Please?

Okay.

She said okay, bro, relax.

Okay, do you know

what a dream sequence is?

Uh-huh.

We could have a dream sequence

where you and I are kissing.

Okay, nice try, buddy.

We could just be dancing

or something, you know?

We could be slow dancing.

Maybe, maybe.

Just f***ing say no.

Just say no to him.

I don't want to

just shut him down.

Well, we don't have to

f***ing listen to him

right now, okay?

Todd, please don't swear at me.

He's manipulating you.

Can't you see that?

I think it's important

to hear his ideas.

You don't f***ing

listen to me.

You know this

makes me uncomfortable,

and you say

it's my anger issues

or some sh*t, and

I'm f***ing sick of it.

Don't f***ing touch me.

Calm down.

Meet me in the car.

I'm taking you to Nina's.

Are you okay?

Wait here.

Hey. Hey...

Where are you going?

I thought I would stay

at my place tonight.

I'm sorry I freaked out.

I...

And I didn't mean to...

I don't know what to say.

I...

I don't know.

You know, I actually haven't

had much time to myself

since I left Adam.

You're just gonna give up?

I feel like I've been

pretty patient.

Really?

Please, please,

just give me

one more chance, please.

I really just wanna go.

I'm so sorry.

Hi, you guys.

-Hey.

-Hey.

Sorry, it's so late.

It's okay.

You could have waited

till tomorrow.

It's really okay,

I'll just order food.

Hungry? Want something?

No, I gotta get going.

- Mom!

-Okay, I'm coming.

But, are you gonna be

at the hospital tomorrow?

Mom!

I'm coming! God.

Teenagers can be

total douchebags, ugh.

All right.

See you later, dude.

Look, I'm sorry, all right?

I'm jealous.

I'm jealous of what you have.

Don't worry about it.

Okay, what are you gonna say?

What, are you gonna call her?

Just let me do my thing, okay?

You worry about your own sh*t.

Look, I'm sorry.

I'm only, just so,

you know, trying to help you,

because,

I know I don't have a chance,

I'm gonna die alone

in a group home, all right?

I'm not gonna have

what you have,

but, I don't know,

you owe it to me, man.

What?

To be happy.

I don't care about myself.

I know I'm a

f***ing lost cause.

You want me to be happy?

Stop doing this

pity-party sh*t.

Okay?

Stop trying to help me

with my relationships.

Do you realize that

you're the reason why

she left me tonight?

Just worry about yourself,

do your thing.

I'll do mine, okay?

I gotta go.

I'm...

Hey, fonzie.

Mrs. Cunningham?

Would you do me a favor

and would you check on Lily?

-I have to take off.

-Uh-huh.

And we have a rule, there's

no boys if I'm not here,

but she's also, um...

You need to have sunscreen on.

I'm fine. Trying to get

a new base layer.

Okay, you're super-freckly.

There's your

base layer, freckles.

Check it out.

Don't do that.

Just check on her, okay?

When I'm gone.

No boys.

-All right.

-Okay.

Cool. Got it.

Lookin' good. Good for you.

Ninety-nine.

One hundred.

This is from forever 21,

and this is from

Abercrombie & Fitch.

And this is from h&m.

And these and this

is from forever 21, too.

Hm.

Yeah, it's like

my favorite store.

Oh.

Is that okay?

-Yeah.

-Yeah.

Hold on.

I just want to

take my earring out.

Shonzi.

Lily.

Your mom said

you're not supposed to

have "guests" over.

It's fine, shonzi.

Why don't you guys
