and I'II taIk to you sometime.

Okay. Bye.

Dad, it's me.

I just wanted to Iet you know

I'm okay, and...

I'm going away for Labor Day.

Second word.

-Long-armed?

-Trunk?

Breathing?

-Referee?

-Direction?

-The wall... The wall.

-High?

You're climbing over the wall.

Over the hill...

l want a girlfriend.

-What?

-Dinners out. Movies.

Regular sex.

l could handle that for, like, a summer.

-You're such a romantic.

-Yeah, damn right.

l've been romantic with all the races.

-Excuse me?

-l have planted my flag in every continent.

-So, white girl.

-Please. lt's like falling off a log.

Asian.

Um...

-Eskimo.

-Next stop, Patchogue.

-No!

-Monica lmpellie.

She works at the public library

on 96th Street.

-You slept with an Eskimo?

-You went to the library?

-l don't believe you.

-Fine.

-She's a nice girl.

-Prove it. 10 bucks.

-You wanna go to the library?

-The second we get off this train.

-Fine.

-Are you coming?

No, l'm gonna skip

this particular bloodbath, thank you.

Leo. You're off duty.

Station stop is Patchogue.

Where is she?

-What are you doing in my house?

-Where is my daughter?

She's at the library.

Does she know?

-No.

-No, l didn't think so.

l figured you'd probably leave it up to me

when you're done with her.

l'm not going anywhere.

Boy, that's true. Tyler Hawkins.

Son of Charles and Diane.

Brother of Caroline and Michael, deceased.

Suicide by hanging.

You're kind of lost, aren't you?

Take a little vacation in coach

before finding your way back to first class?

You think you know me,

but you don't.

But l do know you.

l know you got nothing.

l know you threw away the one person

that gave a sh*t.

Now you wanna blame me. That's all right.

But you know what?

l did the whole thing for a bet anyway.

Get a f***ing deadbolt!

Tyler Keats Hawkins!

You are never gonna believe this!

He banged an lnuit!

And she's really nice and really smart,

and l really don't get it.

What's wrong?

Your dad was here.

Wait... What?

-Your dad was here when l got home.

-Sh*t.

Sh*t! Okay, what did he say?

l know him.

He arrested me and Aidan before l met you.

The gash on my eye?

That was him.

l don't really understand.

l mouthed off to him and he responded.

And then Aidan saw you guys at school,

so he suggested that

l introduce myself to you.

l feel sick.

Ally.

-What are you doing?

-What does it look like?

But you don't need to do that.

Do you even realize what you've done?

Ally.

l mean, did you really think

l would never find out?

l had to find out eventually.

You set it up that way.

Ally, it doesn't mean anything.

lt's not a big deal.

-l didn't mean to hurt you.

-That's exactly what you meant to do.

You had to tell her eventually, man.

She'll be back.

You're not supposed to use that

on nonstick pans.

lt takes off the Teflon.

You gotta let it soak.

Okay.

l'm gonna...

-l don't feel so good.

-Oh, come on. lt's supposed to be fun.

You know, maybe if you tried

to meet people halfway, you know,

put a little bit of effort in?

lf you tried to grow up a little?

Maybe...

Caroline.

Emily. Emily! Come on, the door.

-Happy birthday.

-Hi, sweetie.

-Can you hold on a second? Yeah.

-Thank you.

Thanks. Okay. Come on in, sweetie.

Come on in. The party's right in there.

Yeah. l know. l need ice. lce. Yeah.

Napkins would be good.

Oh, wait! Liz has gotta find her.

Yeah.

-I didn't do this for you.

-Thanks, dude.

-Where's my big guy?

-Oh, my God!

Oh, no.

-Jim! l got here a little early.

-Get out!

-l'll wait in the car.

-Go, Dad! Oh, my...

-Who is that? ls that your dad?

-Yeah...

So, l'mjust..

l'm not embarrassed.

l am!

Mom? l'm okay.

Don't panic. l'm gonna be fine.

-l just need you to come get me right away.

-You've gotta get over here.

Someone cut a chunk

out of this little girl's hair.

Come quickly.

Hi. ls...

Alyssa Craig, does she live here?

Okay. Great. That's... l'm...

You think l don't remember you?

-No, sir.

-Who is it?

lt's okay.

So, what do you want?

Look. l'm a prick. You know? And...

And?

Dad!

Look, Tyler's not.

-Look, l...

-Would you just wait?

Sh*t! All right, l'm not...

l'm not any good at this. All right?

lt's not my thing.

He lied to me. Big time.

He's in love with you.

l have only seen him look at one other girl

the way he looks at you.

And she's a lot shorter and shares his DNA.

You don't have to forgive him today.

Just forgive him.

Yeah. She's pretty traumatized.

-No! l'm trying.

-l wanted to pull some names together

in case we all decided

she should talk to someone.

l just talked to her. No.

-Diane's pretty upset, too.

-That's what l'm trying to tell you.

No, the girls are saying

Caroline did it to herself.

-But it's not true!

-Yeah.

All of them.

"...he sang almost as beautifully."

lt didn't happen

on school property, so...

"When he was grown, he left his mother..."

The school's not gonna do anything.

Yeah, they're probably

gonna get away with it.

"...and his eight loving aunts,

"and he went to live

in his father's kingdom of Thrace

"to bring the joy of music to earth.

His voice rang so pure and true

"that the fiercest warriors

put down their swords

"and savage beasts

lay spellbound at his feet."

You give me the word

and l will steal their bikes.

Ally.

lt's so sweet of you to come.

lt's my last one ever. l swear.

Look, l...

l know you're not here for me.

And l don't...

Just thank you for being here anyway.

And for what it's worth,

l think you're amazing.

How is she? Huh?

She's asleep.

-Are you okay?

-Yeah.

All right.

Did you do something different

with your hair? l love it.

Yeah, it's beautiful.

Okay.

Okay, that's enough. Enough!

Excuse me! What are you doing? Stop!

Hawkins. You posted.

Destruction of private property.

Felony trespassing.

-l didn't call you.

-l know you didn't.

l have unleashed a raging sh*t storm

of epic proportions

on the board of trustees

of that pissant school

that will not abate until those girls

seek enrollment elsewhere.

l give them a week.

l know you think l'm a prick,

but l have my uses.

Can you come by the office

and talk to the lawyers?

Okay.

Try not to vandalize any more schools

in the meantime.

-Thanks for bailing me out.

-No problem!

-Hi.

-Hey.

Hey, using your little sister is dirty pool.

ls it working?

Maybe.

Hey.

l gotta go to my dad's office.

Say hi to him for me.

l love you.

Good.

l love you, too.

Hey, French toast or pancakes?

-lt doesn't matter.

-French toast.

-Hey. Good morning.

-What are you doing here?

Well, Tyler's coming by the office,

and l just thought

l'd ride to school with Caroline.

-ls that okay?

-Okay. Sure.

-Yeah. Great.

-Good. Good.

-All right...

-She's not ready, though.

-Don't worry about it. That's okay.

-She's gonna need at least 20 minutes.

-l'll wait. l'm here, right downstairs.

-Okay.

Okay.

Are you running late,

or are you canceling altogether?

Are you already on your way?
