Good afternoon.

Good afternoon.

We're out of cereal. I

I need money.

Yeah? How about a job?

You want the kids to eat?

Spend it all on food this time.

[knock on door]

I got it. Don't worry about it.

Him.

In front of my house,

sitting in the car. Huh?

Come on.

I just had him give me a ride,

so I'm having him wait out there.

I deal with you.

- I know, that's why I'm having him wait...

- Bring him inside.

It's gonna attract attention

out there. Come on, f***!

- Right now?

- Yes, now. Bring him in.

All right.

Yo, Beaver, come on.

Come in.

You guys having a good play date?

[Wyatt] I'm sorry, you want a f***ing tour?

[door creaking]

[spitting]

[helicopter whirring]

Keep your head down and your mouth shut.

Close the door behind you.

Hey.

Don't touch anything.

That sh*t will blind you.

It will.

Am I picking up?

[hushing]

[Troy] What?

What?

[Wyatt] You sure?

[Troy] I mean, it was a slow month.

- [Wyatt] Slow month?

- [Troy] Yeah.

[Wyatt] I give you something,

Troy, I want you to sell it.

[Troy] I understand. It was

just a slow month, though.

[Wyatt] I didn't give it

to you to play with it.

- [Troy] I feel you. I...

- I can help out.

I'm sorry. What did you say?

I can help you.

We spoke about it, and

you know, I can come in,

I can help out, you know. I need the money.

[Troy] Oh, I didn't

speak to him about sh*t.

What are you talking about, Beaver?

[Wyatt laughing]

He can help me.

He doesn't know what the

f*** he's talking about.

That's good. That's good.

That's good.

I could use some help.

I've been looking for some help.

Thank God you're here to help me.

- It's f***ing great.

- [Troy] Whoa.

How're you gonna help me?

[Troy] Whoa, whoa... Wyatt, Wyatt...

How're you gonna help me?

Hey, you don't have to worry

about him, Wyatt, he's not...

Just tell me.

[Troy] Wyatt, it's cool.

Wyatt, Wyatt...

How're you gonna help me?

Wyatt, Wyatt... Chill,

man. You don't want...

Maybe there's something about my

business I wasn't thinking about.

You don't have to worry about him.

Something I didn't think of, you're

gonna give me some advice? Huh?

Wyatt, listen to me. You

don't got to worry about him.

You know why I worry?

'Cause you're f***in' stupid.

I ain't goin' to jail for your mistakes.

Better keep your little mouth shut.

[laughs]

[Wyatt] It's just water.

Next time it won't be.

- [Wyatt] Stack's by the door.

- [Troy] All right.

- [Wyatt] Sell everything I give you, Troy.

- For sure.

Let's go. Beaver, let's go.

- No more f***ing excuses.

- For sure. For sure.

Right here?

So you find this guy, brand

new shoes, brand new suit.

Might you be suspicious of him?

- [girl] Yeah, I would.

- [Mrs. Flynn] All right.

Joel came out of prison, right?

Does anybody know why he was in prison?

I'm wondering what's going

on. Did you guys read the book?

I hope you did because it s pop quiz time.

Books under your desk,

phones and electronics away,

pens out, people.

You all have till 10:00

to complete the test.

Good luck.

You're late.

Please have a seat, quickly.

In the middle of taking a test.

Pass this down to Mr. Tardy.

What you got? A?

St. Angelo?

I don't know.

You got any cash on you?

No, I don't have anything.

You got any cash on you?

- No, but I got some...

- Okay, then f*** you.

You guys aren't smoking my weed

'cause you guys never pick up...

[chattering]

I smoke you guys out every week...

- Hey.

- Hey.

Hey, you know, I never do that.

What? Take a pop quiz?

No, like, copy answers.

I hate English, you know.

Well, that's a lie.

It's all right. I never let dudes

cheat off me, so, you owe me.

All right, all right. I owe you one.

We're hangin' out tonight.

I can pick you up at 8:00.

It's not that easy.

Come on. Why not? Why not?

Because we don't know each other.

All right...

What do you wanna know?

What do you need to know?

You wanna see a magic

trick? Is that what it is?

Really?

You got a pen?

All right, let's see. All right.

There you go.

- Real pen, right?

- Mmm-hmm.

- Yeah?

- Mmm-hmm.

[coughing]

Wow.

See, that's why we should hang

out. Come on, give me your number.

I don't date high school guys.

What the f***, bro? What

the f*** was that, Beaver?

[laughing]

[boy] Real f***ing smooth.

Hey, come on. I mean, that

was a good trick, right?

Let's hang out.

- I just wanna get to know you.

- It's never gonna happen, okay?

Can you get that through your head?

Or are you some kind of retard?

Hey, you don't have to use that word.

I can take a hint. You

don't have to use that word.

Okay?

Whoa, whoa. Hey.

Wait. I'm sorry, okay?

I am.

You were saying?

We just hang out at this

place called Grover's Lot.

It's this old abandoned parking structure.

We just drink and sh*t.

Okay, so...

you wanna go to some junkyard and do what,

drink beer out of paper bags?

- I just thought that...

- I'll see you at 8:00.

Cool.

You wanna know where it is?

[song playing on car radio]

[Troy] Yo, Sheila!

Sheila!

Whaddup?

You gained some weight?

- Go f*** yourself, Troy.

- In a good way. In a good way.

I'm trying to give this girl a compliment,

and she's like taking it a lil' personally.

She's like fillin' herself out. More

cushion for the pushin', you know.

Speaking of prude, that girl, Kat,

I heard she gave Steve Russell

a knobber in Mickey D's lap.

Bullshit, man.

- Bullshit?

- Bullshit.

Ain't bullshit.

Yeah, you probably heard

that from Steve Russell.

I did hear it from Steve Russell,

but that don't make it dog lie.

- Why is he gonna lie?

- Why is he gonna lie?

Yeah. You call him a liar.

'Cause she's a smokin' hot

piece of ass, that's why.

Beaver, don't get strung out

by that cock knocker, all right?

I mean, it ain't about

scoring p*ssy anyway.

I've seen her sweat in

the first week she landed.

No, man. A girl like that, ain't
