to be considered his equal.
Hannah's a pretty smart
cookie herself.
Yeah, you think so?
I know so.
But she can't think her way
out of this one.
Uh-unh.
- Hannah:
What is in here?- Oh, boy.
- Okay.
- Who knows?
- This is heavy.
- All right.
Um, all right.
That was... interesting.
Hey, I got a question for you.
No, that wasn't my real mother.
Here.
Your prize for lying to my folks,
not that you were very good at it.
Seriously, though,
why do you want
to write this book?
'Cause I had so much love
left in my arsenal
Good night.
- Hey, Hannah?
- Uh-huh?
Kind of dug your family.
Andrew:
Easy, Carl Lewis.What are you doing?
Holy smokes.
- Bruce:
Watch the ice here.- What ice?
I'm kidding, Bruce.
These are jokes.
for French toast.
What's with the bag 0' peat?
I thought as long as the boys
we could be productive.
Okay.
You got to plant
the seeds early, honey.
Try thinking more
about the future.
Thank you.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa.
- There you go.
- Come on.
- Jesus, you're quick.
Oh, boy.
Of all the days I forget
my pedometer, huh?
If we want to reach
the pond up top,
we have to get through
Fat Man's Misery,
not unlike crawling up
a chimney.
You want the best lookout,
we can hit the Lemon Squeeze
while you make like a piece of bologna
between slices of toast.
Or we can stop here,
eat some granola,
and pay our respects.
Wait, this is it?
Always figured probably
on his way down
- it was getting dark.
- Yeah.
He was out on that ridge
above you there.
- Yeah.
- Good Lord.
That is no joke.
Got spooked by some animal
jumped out on the trail.
He just lost his footing.
Bruce...
we both know he didn't lose
his footing, right?
Wouldn't you say he was
Real question
for you here, Andrew.
Who do you think you are?
I've studied guys like him
for years.
You know,
Hunter is pretty textbook.
If you really,
really listen to him...
It's like it hasn't occurred
to anyone, right?
Yeah, it never occurred to us.
So thank you, oh, wise one
from the island of tall buildings,
how it is.
Now you just
have to nurture them
like they're your own children.
Smooth segue to my ovaries.
Listen, every year
presents a milestone.
Knocking out your baby teeth,
graduating,
heavy petting.
Ew.
When you're old,
there are only
two milestones left--
grandchildren and death,
and you just pray that one
comes before the other.
I know.
I know I'm impatient,
but I've tasted all the juicy stuff
except this one thing.
You know, Ma,
I used to think
that I wanted children.
Now I just want llamas.
So many llamas.
Just take one step.
Yeah, do a date on the Internet
and cut this hair.
Jesus.
Just take a break from
Wow. Cue the salt
in the wound.
Hey, it's time
to call up your old friends,
lipstick and eyeliner.
These are like raw eggplant.
Okay.
Three strikes, I'm out.
No, I do not need anything.
Just a little bit.
Just a smidge.
You're just going to leave me?
Of course.
Of course!
No, it gets dark at 4:00 PM.
Bed time.
Who needs coffee?
Like I said, the gatherers
always get screwed.
Howdy, Curt.
You here to discuss the food chain
a little bit more?
- How's it go?
- She's a real Maine girl, that Hannah.
Aw, you're telling me.
She likes a good man.
A real man.
A man that smells like pine resin,
not Pierre Cardin.
I've got no claim on her, Curtis.
Hell, if you guys procreate,
it might even out the gene pool, yeah?
Really nice seeing you.
Oh, my God.
Are we going to do this bullshit?
What are you going to do?
Kick my ass?
Not saying that you couldn't.
You'd destroy me.
There's not a soul in this town
that wants to see her
going with a flat-lander like you.
into that exhaust hole you came from.
All right, Curtis.
Curtis Brown.
We live in the slow lane,
not a gravel ditch.
Where are your manners?
Andy...
go screw yourself.
Please and thank you.
- Oh!
- Aw, come on.
- You all right?
- Oh, yeah. No, I'm fine.
Just helping everybody
He didn't pee on you?
No. Surprisingly, no.
He did not pee on me.
Mm-mm. No, I didn't even know
that would be an option.
No, he just threw down
the gauntlet.
Well, that's, uh--
that's kind of sweet.
No, it is not sweet.
No. Come on,
what are you talking about?
This isn't quaint
or kooky small-town charm.
You know?
And I got to be honest with you.
I am sick of the forest
and all the crazy little creatures
who live in it.
You drag me up here
to write this book--
Okay, Snow White.
Nobody is holding you hostage.
You leave in two days, right?
You can leave tomorrow.
Oh, my God.
Can you just be a chick
for, like, a second,
and say,
"There, there, poor thing,"
or some sh*t, please?
Some sh*t.
Thank you.
Was that so hard?
Now I don't know about you,
but I would kill
for an overpriced meal
at a mediocre restaurant.
- Shall we?
- Dinner and a dump.
Purely for journalistic reasons,
I will choose dinner and a dump.
- Excellent.
- Got to see what this is all about.
Let's do it.
Ah, there we go.
Hubba bubba.
Look at that there.
We have a gusher.
I can't believe we go out to eat
and you order the one thing on the menu
with their eyes shut.
You know, people who can't
toast Eggos can boil a bug.
What are you talking about?
Someone had to cut
They had to melt the butter.
There's a lot of steps involved.
- Mm-hmm.
- Oh, man, oh, man.
Look at that.
Are you ever getting the eye from
the woodchucks at the bar over there.
Uh-huh. Hi!
Me or her?
You see, around here,
everybody keeps tabs on everyone else,
and everyone else is pretty sure
You never thought about moving
to New York? Manhattan?
- No.
- No? Living in the big city?
A change of scenery might help.
No, it's not the kind of thing
that you can take a vacation from.
It's who I am now.
I mean, you try
to seem normal, right?
But here's this thing that looms
so large in your life
you can't even see around it,
you know?
Can't dress yourself because
it's blocking your closet.
I guess you could technically say
that I'm depressed.
No. No, you are not depressed.
That is not depression.
That is just flat-out
certified grief, you know?
That's normal.
That's natural.
And it's not like
you're waking up at noon
or Skyping with your therapist
during office hours
like me and half my colleagues.
What have you got to be
so depressed about?
- Are you serious? Me?
- Yes.
Tons of stuff.
I do!
I mean, little things,
you know,
like having a bunch
of smart-ass students
that don't have a single
original thought in their head.
That's depressing.
Big things?
My dad passing away
