Oh, thanks for noticing.
Ha, that's what's up, man.
Here you are.
Thanks, bro.
By the way, thanks for
the Lisa alert last night.
Look, I'm sorry, man,
she was already at your house
before I could call
the code red.
Ah, speak of the devil.
Can I... Can I get some help?
On it.
Thanks, arch.
Man, I'm going to miss this,
you know.
What? My little brother
hitting on my ex-girlfriend?
Nah, no.
You know, hanging out
after high school.
You know, going camping
with my friends on a whim.
Watching your little brother
cop a feel
on your ex-girlfriend.
Archie. Hands.
Dude, I was thinking
about this last night.
This will probably
be the last time
we can all hang out like this.
You know, next month I go
to Florida for training
and in three months
you're gonna be in school.
And to tell you the truth
I'm not even sure
I want to go to
college anymore.
But what are you gonna do
If you don't go to school?
Yeah...
Hey. Um, interrupting
a bromance or something?
No, not at all. Are you ready?
Yeah.
Okay, Archie, give me the bag. You
look like you're about to fall over.
No, no. I got it.
I got it.
Come on, man.
Let's go!
Some help? No, no,
no, you got it.
You're right there.
What a champ!
All right.
What are you doing?
Calling.
Why don't you just
honk the horn?
Her step-Dad'll
get pissed.
Dude!
What?
Don't you walk away from me,
young lady.
I want to see myself in that
linoleum floor before noon.
You're a beer away from
sleeping on the floor, Earl.
No... You'll listen
to me, Gwendolyn.
I don't work hard all day so
you can go out whoring around
with your loud friends.
Stop it, you're hurting me.
What are you gonna do?
Call the cops?
Sheriff Desoto's
a friend of mine.
If anything happens to you
I'll bet he'll vouch for me.
I said stop it!
Ouch! F***!
Can we go? Fast-ish!
Uh, you okay?
It's fine.
Hey, you guys,
why all the long faces?
Come on,
we're officially on vacation.
What happened to you, Brainiac?
What happened to you?
You saw the other guy.
Tell me how you
want to be little man
tell me how you feel
more than human
there is something special
waiting for you
waiting for you
every single slap
and all of the names
every single punk
and all of the bad things
a dozen stars away
just old memories
waiting for you
like a falling star
Oh, we've come so far
let me dance and sing
supernaturally
as we climb so high
may we touch the sky
and let me dance and sing
supernaturally
am I just a man
or a human being
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh
Oh-Oh-Oh-Oh
put down your baggage
put down your weight
with your mates
we're only young once
in a lifetime
why should we wait
hey, It's up here on the left.
What is this?
You'll see.
Well, it looks like you
can still get in here.
Go ahead, little bro.
Man, I can't believe Uncle
Billy bought all of this land,
and he isn't doing
anything with it.
Yeah.
We had some pretty
great memories, huh?
With mom and dad.
Yeah.
Hey, so, uh,
it was cool seeing you stand up
to your old man back there.
Step old man.
Yeah, he kind of sucks.
Yeah, more than kind of.
Dude, but you... You were cool,
you were like... Like wham,
you know.
Like wonder woman cool.
Yeah?
Hey.
Um, are we all alone out here?
I think so. I don't think
anyone lives out here for Miles.
Why?
I don't know. Just...
I just got this weird feeling
like we're being
watched or something.
It's probably nothing.
I can hold your hand
If you're scared.
Guys, guys, guys,
I think we're forgetting.
Besides Archie, but still.
You know, at this moment
we should have no stress,
not a care in the world.
No one can stop us.
Let's just go conquer
the Mountain.
I like where your head's at.
What have we got to be
scared of? Let's do this thing.
That's a big ass Mountain.
Archie, language.
Okay.
Still a big ass Mountain.
So how's your face?
My lip is fine.
"My lip is fine."
Just look at those...
hey, you got a sec?
Sure.
How's your leg?
Shaky.
Yeah?
I'm supposed
to be ready for this,
but I don't know.
No, You'll be great.
Yeah, well,
why is the Mountain there?
To be conquered.
You guys have said
that like six times today.
It's what my dad always
used to say
when he taught me to climb.
Oh.
So,
I was wondering,
since I might not come back
from this thing
which is what everyone
wants to hear.
Why did we break up?
Denny, I had my reasons.
Which were?
You know, I don't think
this is the best time
to be talking about this.
You should be getting ready...
no, I think this is a perfectly
good time actually.
If you want to talk,
let's talk about
that brace on your leg
and how it got there
in the first place.
Denny, we dated for six months.
You wouldn't tell me anything.
I-I mean,
I know it bothers you, okay,
so I didn't press it, but...
Oh...
I had my reasons.
Cute.
Wait.
What?
You know horseshoe canyon?
Where you used to climb?
Right.
My dad and I were climbing
together there
for my birthday.
We were half way up the face
and there was
this big explosion.
What?
We fell.
And when the smoke cleared I was
really hurt bad,
like spinal damage.
And my dad was... Was fine,
for a while.
I had to get a lot
of surgeries.
For the first couple of months
my mom and Archie
always took me in.
My dad had something
to work on.
Something to make me better.
But one day we just came
from the hospital,
and dad had cleared out.
No note, no phone call,
no text message.
Nothing. Just gone.
Denny, I'm so sorry.
But, I didn't want
to tell you because
I didn't want my dad leaving
to screw up our relationship.
So, I'm gonna go
climb this Mountain,
and I might not come back.
Why did we break up?
I'll tell you what,
come back down the Mountain
in one piece
and I'll tell you.
Really?
After all that,
that's what I get?
I need to give you a good reason
to come back down.
You promise?
Cross my heart and hope to fly.
Hope to die.
Who hopes for that?
That's a pretty long
first pitch.
Oh, we've definitely climbed
higher than that before.
Yeah. You think you'd
like to take it?
Yeah, It's a little stiff
without the brace
but I'm sure I'll be fine.
Okay, belay on, dude.
You ready?
Yup. All right, let's get it.
Hey, Denny, don't fall.
Don't worry
I won't. Mom.
You got it.
All right.
All right.
You good?
Uh-huh.
All right, you got it, man.
Whoo!
Oh!
Aah!
Thank you.
No problem.
Hey, yo, keep that smile up.
I can't believe you brought
these all the way up here.
They're your favorite, man.
We have to celebrate.
Where did you say the girls
were picking us up again?
Well, we're going to
go over this Ridge
and meet them at a small
road that's up there.
How's your leg feeling?
Pretty stiff.
