Search Party Page #4

Synopsis: Convinced that his buddy Nardo (Thomas Middleditch) is making the mistake of a lifetime by marrying Tracy (Shannon Woodward), Jason (T.J. Miller) puts a dramatic end to their wedding. When the furious bride decides to take her Baja honeymoon solo, Nardo follows her-where the lovesick groom is carjacked and left stranded, naked and penniless in a remote part of the Mexican desert. Helpless, Nardo sends out an SOS to Jason and their pal Evan (Adam Pally), an up-and-coming ad exec slated for an important business meeting the next morning. During their ridiculous attempt to rescue Nardo, the trio embarks on a series of increasingly outrageous misadventures involving con artists, drug smugglers and even the Federales.

Remember when I lost my wallet?

I remember when you jumped in a

pool with it in your back pocket.

And I remember when you left

it out in the sun to dry.

I remember all those things.

You go do whatever

you have to do.

I'm just gonna stay in the car.

No, no, no, no.

This guy's kind of hardcore.

I need your help.

I don't know how much help I'm gonna be.

Look at me.

You look great.

I look like a Golden Girl.

The best Golden Girl!

I don't know, I feel

like I have a camel toe.

Remind me why we're here again?

Well, remember

when I lost my wallet?

Well, you can't leave

the country without an ID,

so this guy's gonna make me one.

Shh! Shut up.

People are trying to sleep.

He's 11.

Here. It's all there.

Good.

Now get your ass inside

before you wake up my moms.

Jesus!

That flash is really bright.

Don't smile so much.

It's a license,

not the f***ing prom.

Good one, Kenny.

Excellent.

Sh*t! Keep it down!

That was loud?

Kenny, sweetie?

Sh*t! It's my f***ing mom!

Hide, hide, hide!

Kenny?

Kenny, honey, you okay?

Sorry, Mom.

I had a bad dream.

I was just in here,

reading Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul.

Aw...

Sweetie pie, come here.

Hop on the mommy train.

There you go.

Who's my guy?

I am.

Who's my guy?

I am.

She can't see us.

Wait, wait, wait!

Don't freak out!

Who the f*** are you?

We're friends of Kenny's.

Yeah, he's making me a fake ID.

What are they talking about?

I don't know.

What do you mean, you don't know?

You know!

Look at the camera and everything!

I'm Fletcher Simmons!

Yeah! He's like a weird

little businessman!

Wait, is this true?

The truth is,

they gave me this money

to take pictures of my balls.

What?

- That's bullshit, Kenny!

- My God!

That is way out of line!

No, I would not take...

Why would we want pictures

of a boy's balls?

If anything, we would need

pictures of the whole shaft and...

What?

You stay away from him!

No, no. Kenny and I are cool.

Come, here, little boy.

You stay away from him!

We've got perverts!

That's a dick move, Kenny,

and you know it!

Perverts!

Help! Help!

Evan!

Honey, I got him!

Who are you?

I'm Kenny's other mom, f***er.

Jason!

What a terrible family!

Keys, keys, keys, keys!

Okay, hold on.

Come on, Jason,

pick up the phone.

It's him!

Pull over, pull over!

- Hello?

- Jason!

Nardo!

Evan! Yes!

My God, yes!

Hey, Nardo. How's it going, man?

Where are you guys?

We're about halfway,

but we are on our way.

We know your location.

Wait, no, no, no!

I'm not there anymore, okay?

Yeah, I ran into a town

and now my tights are ripped.

Your tights?

Yeah, I actually dig them,

and I'm kind of bummed

that they're ruined.

Where are you now?

What are you looking at?

What do you see around you?

I don't know, it's hard to say.

Everywhere I go,

everything's in f***ing

Mexican words.

You mean Spanish?

I mean Mexican.

It's Mexico, man.

I'm not in Spain.

F***ing idiot!

Look around you.

What do you see?

Okay, there's

something that says...

F***ing what?

"Get casheer."

"Get cassair"?

"Get casher"?

"Get cashhere."

"Get cash here," Nardo?

Sorry. It does say,

"Get cash here."

Actually, below, it says,

"U.S. Wire Service," but...

Okay, new plan.

We're gonna wire you $500.

That way, you can go to the

resort and I can go back to L.A.

Do you have your ID on you?

No, Evan,

I don't have an ID.

I have tights.

You're going to

find someone with an ID

and then I will wire them

$50 extra to say

thank you for the favor.

Yes, thank you.

Thank you so much!

Okay, just hold on.

Hola. Hola.

Aloha.

What?

I have a friend who's trying

to send me money in there

and I just need

someone with an ID card

to go in there and sign for it.

I'll give you 50 bucks.

$60!

Well, it's hardly

a time to bargain. Yes.

- Yes, $60.

- Okay.

Okay, great.

You're saving my hide, honestly.

Thank you so much!

Okay, send the money

to Sarah McLachlan.

Like the Sarah McLachlan?

Love Sarah McLachlan!

She's a very famous singer.

You sure you're Sarah McLachlan?

Yeah. Why?

Ask her if she's

the Sarah McLachlan.

It's the Mexican version.

Nardo, I am going to wire you

and Sarah McLachlan money.

Just hang tight, okay, pal?

Evan, thank you!

Okay, so where do we wire

money from at this hour?

You know, Marty works near here.

I bet we could

wire money from there.

Look, they spelled

"sluts" wrong, right?

If the "O" was a "U."

It's a minor change.

Hey, can you handle

this wire transfer?

I gotta make

a work call real quick.

Are you gonna ask out Elizabeth?

I am not messing around

with anyone from work.

Don't pretend like

it's an ethical thing, okay?

You're scared

because you like her

and you can't even talk to her.

Hey!

Hello?

Hey, it's me.

I mean, it's Evan.

It's not "me," it's Evan.

Hey.

I'm sorry to catch you so late.

That's okay.

What's going on?

Well, I wanted to touch base

with you about the steam tomorrow.

You're calling me now

to touch base?

Look, there's an outside shot

that I might be a little late.

I'm taking my mom

to the dentist.

Where are you?

I'm in L.A.

Tell her.

The Sizzler.

I love the Sizzler.

You know what?

Don't worry about it.

Order up!

Don't be an a**hole.

Just tell me what's going on.

Sizzling steaks!

You know what?

I have to run.

Look at this menu!

I'm sorry about this, Elizabeth.

I will talk to you tomorrow.

Goodbye.

I want a twice-loaded

baked potato.

Great. Now Elizabeth hates me.

What? I helped. Marty!

But you could also...

My God!

Put this in my office

and do not take a bite.

Are you kidding me?

What is up?

Yeah! All right!

My favorite customer!

That means a lot

coming from you.

'Cause it means you lose.

We're actually not here

to gamble, Marty.

Okay. Right.

I get what you're saying.

You wanna party in Marty's van.

No, no. Yeah, I'll do that.

Let's do that.

Check this out.

Maybe they're sisters,

maybe they're friends.

I hope they're lesbians.

Come on, I wanna show you this.

Come here.

You know, I've actually

been in your van, Marty.

Yeah, you wish!

Who the f*** is this guy?

Only cool guys are

allowed in Marty's van.

Can we just please

make a wire transfer?

All right. Let's go on back.

Thank you.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. No, no, no.

Turquoise Tommy stays out here.

You're good, okay? No.

Get him out of here.

Thank you.

Marty. We know each other, Marty.

Hey, hey, hey. Hey.

Look, Marty has

great instincts, okay?

Now, let me take care of the wire

transfer and you go chill at the bar.

Look, there's an attractive girl.

Go over there and hit on her.

I am not hitting

on a random girl

at a random casino

in the middle of the night.

Evan, earlier you told Elizabeth

she looked good to go.

Do you remember that?

Yeah.

As I was standing there,

cringing. Right?

I know it was bad.

It was really, really bad.

I know. I know.

So your skills have fallen off.

Now, go over there and practice.

She's gonna reject you,

but you'll learn something, all right?
