"Duncan?" "Duncan?" "Duncan, are you sleeping?" "No." "Let me ask you something." "On a scale of one to ten, what do you think you are?" "Duncan?" "I'm asking you how you see yourself." "Scale of one to ten." "I don't know." "I can't hear you, bud." "You have to speak up." "I don't know." "What?" "What don't you know?" "How you see yourself?" "You don't have any opinion?" "I'm just asking." "Pick any number, scale of one to ten." "Just shout it out." "Say a number." "A six." "A what?" "A six!" "I think you're a three." "You know why I think you're a three?" "Do you know what would make me say that?" "No." "You don't know?" "You have no idea?" "No." "You've got to speak up, buddy." "No!" "Since I've been dating your mom," "I don't see you putting yourself out there, bud." "Meeting kids your own age." "And from what your mom tells me, you just seem content to hang around her apartment." "Is that a fair assessment?" "You're just happy not do anything?" "Because, damn, to me that is a three." "But, the good news I'm here to tell you, since there's going to be plenty of kids and plenty of opportunities for you to take advantage of at my beach house this summer." "It's a big summer for all of us, really." "You, your mom." "Me, Steph." "One day, we could become a family." "So, what do you say?" "Let's try to get that score up." "Huh?" "Aim higher than a three?" "That sound good?" "You up for that, buddy?"

"Dad, could I get the keys?" "Are you kidding me?" "Thank God!" "Another night of drinking alone and I was going to kill myself!" "Hey!" "I'm off the wagon again." "Accept it and move on." "Oh, my God." "Press my laundry." "Oh, Trent." "How're you doing?" "I'm good." "I like this." "I love your ride." "Does the eight track still work?" "What this?" "This is exactly the car my dad used to drive us in." "Old and crappy." "Do you have any idea how much I've spent on this car?" "This is cherry." "This is a cherry car." "A car salesman with bad taste." "Shocker." "Hi." "I'm Betty." "Trent's probably already talked crap about me." "No." "He did, didn't he?" "It's okay if he has." "What did he say?" "I'm loving this." "Oh, thank you." "I couldn't pull it off." "My hair seems to hate me." "That's where you're supposed to say, "Your hair's lovely. "" "Oh, it, is." "It is lovely." "Okay." "I like her." "What's not to like?" "Get it where you can." "I'd be on my back after a line like that." "Susanna, Trent's here." "This is his new girlfriend, Pam." "Hi, Susanna." "Say, "Hi. "" "Hi." "Yeah, but don't come down." "Just stand there, brooding." "Oh!" "You've brought me a man." "How thoughtful." "Hello, sailor." "Who is this in all his awkward stage glory?" "This is my son, Duncan." "Everybody lends a hand." "Oh, my God." "I was going to name my youngest Duncan, but my ex-husband thought it was too nerdy." "So, we went with Peter." "Which, personally, I think is worse." "But, it suits my son, so..." "Oh, don't worry, you wear the name well." "Trent, where's Steph?" "We've been here all of two minutes, so I suppose she's getting ready for the beach." "Oh, my God." "She's just like me." "Screw cancer." "I want to be an even golden brown." "Everywhere." "Everybody's back this year." "The Gales." "The Hutchisons." "The Campbells, sans Ben because of the trial." "Insider trading." "The Smythes." "Oh, and the Keegans, who I'm not talking to." "You can if you want to, but just know that most of us aren't." "Okay." "So, do you think you will?" "Pam?" "Do I think I will, what?" "Talk to the Keegans." "Oh, I don't know." "I don't even know them." "Do if you want to but just know that I'm mad at them." "I don't even want to get into why." "They called me a See-You-Next-Tuesday." "To my face." "You're going to love it here!" "Whoo!" "I've only had one." "Yee-haw!" "So, how was your winter?" "Because our year was a challenge." "My niece was raped in October." "Oh, my God!" "I know." "Not even food courts are safe" "Oh, and Bob, that's my ex-husband." "Finally came out of the closet." "Not a shock." "Let's just say that, in bed, his favorite view was the back of my head." "My oldest, Charlie, is still into the drugs and psychedelic music." "Drugs I get." "But, come on, Gary Garcia's dead!" "Get over it." "Gary?" "Don't do drugs, Declan." "Duncan." "Oh, and Susanna." "You saw her." "She's a walking mood." "She's going through an "I hate my mother" phase." "Taking her father's side, as usual." "Hi, Mrs. Thompson." "Oh, Steph, don't you look so cute." "That's exactly the kind of suit that got me pregnant the first time." "That's what I'm hoping for." "Hey." "I'm kidding!" "Oh, and Peter." "Finally got his surgery to fix his lazy eye." "Now, it's even worse." "I try to get him to wear an eye patch, so people don't feel awkward." "But, what are you gonna do?" "I'm outta here." "Oh, why don't you take Duncan with you?" "Screw that." "I told you I'm not baby-sitting him all summer." "You're gonna take Duncan with you, young lady." "All right?" "Why don't you go to the beach, honey?" "You'll have fun." "We're just going to be unpacking here." "We might be doing some other stuff, too." "Mmm." "That's our cue, kids." "Come on." "Now, listen, I am still having my annual Fourth of July Clambake." "And it will bleed into your yard." "Okay." "Bob or no Bob, the party must go on." "He's probably sliding off our gardener right now." "Let's have a fun summer!" "Duncan, are you coming or what?" "Have fun." "Just keep your distance." "And, just don't die." "I don't need that shit hanging over my head." "We can absolutely party at my place." "My dad only gets to see me, like, twice a year, so he totally just wants me to be happy." "That's exactly the type of parent I'm going to be." "I'm gonna do drugs with my kids." "Oh, my God." "I forgot." "Willem broke up with Jessica!" "No!" "Good." "I don't get her face." "It's like she fell on it." "Oh, my God!" "Susanna, you have to get on that this summer." "Yeah." "Chad!" "Chad!" "Chad!" "What?" "I want to go in the water!" "Then, go!" "Baby, I'm right in the middle of tossing." "We talked about this." "All right." "He's being weird." "Let's go." "Ew!" "What are you staring at, perv?" "Where is that kid from, anyway?" "Albany." "He and his mom." "My dad says they live in a one-bedroom apartment." "Tragic." "I know, right?" "Uh, Susanna." "We're all swimming!" "What is her deal?" "I don't know." "She's been like that since we got here." "Duncan." "We were just coming to find you" "This is Peter." "Hey, Duncan." "Hey." "Oh." "Just stare at the bridge of his nose." "That's what I do." "Mom." "Are you shitting me?" "If you wore the patch," "I wouldn't have to keep telling people that, would I?" "Duncan, I thought you and Peter should hang out this summer." "Lord knows he brought enough of his Star Wars dolls." "They're action figures!" "And they're classics!" "Please." "They lose value if I take them out of the box." "But we can still have awesome battles with them." "He needs human contact." "He's having far too many conversations with those dolls." "No, I'm not!" "Should we set up a time for you two to get together tomorrow?" "Um..." "I should check with my mom." "Oh." "Okay." "Don't stand us up." "We know where you live!" "I told you." "Your eye makes people uncomfortable." "You're the worst parent." "That is your father talking." "Did he tell you to say that?" "Yeah." "He did?" "Yes." "That's terrible."

"These are Trent's friends, Joan and Kip." "Chief, I'm Kip." "I'm the one who's not grinding on you right now." "I'm not grinding on him." "Yes, you are." "# Carry a laser down the road that I must travel #" "I'll make it worse." "Mom, no." "I'm out of here." "Oh, wait." "I made dinner." "Oh, shoot." "I have plans." "Steph, wait, check out his moves." "Whoo!" "Enjoy therapy." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." " See you, Dad." " See you." "All right, we did that." "Not me." "I could barely watch that." "Buddy, any chance you were on top of my car?" "No." "Okay. 'Cause there was a dent in the roof." "Big dent." "It popped out." "It's fine." "I was just wondering if you knew anything about that?" "We did have bags up there, honey." "That's true." "We did." "Fair enough." "That was probably it." "Right?" "Hey, Pam." "You need a hand?" "Oh, no." "Thank you." "We've got a system going on here." "Yeah!" "We got a good team here." "Right?" "Good team." "Adorable." "Can you pass me something to eat, sweetie?" "No, I can tell you exactly where I was." "Passed out in the dunes." "That's true!" "Yes!" "Because, you left me there!" "No, wait!" "Kip wanted to go out on his boat." "He said you would be fine by the fire." "Here's what he said!" ""Yoo, hoo!" "You never came back. "" "No, we didn't." "I came back the next morning." " Yes!" " First thing." "And I had to poke her with a stick to wake her." "You know, I once went to this luau-themed party." "I'm sorry." "No, please." "You were talking..." "No, you go." "Tell your story, babe." "No, it's dumb." "Well, now you have to tell it." "I went to this luau and I passed out in the dunes, too." "That's basically it." "That's so funny." "No, it's just a similar thing to..." "No, totally." "I have to point out by the way I'm loading up for the third time." "Thank you." "Bravo." "And I apologize for this asshole springing us on you at the last minute." "No, not at all." "I'm a caterer." "I love cooking for people." "Oh, you cater?" "That makes sense." "One of her many talents." "Actually, she has some ideas for fixing up the place." "Oh, yeah?" "Are you gonna fix up the Riptide?" "No, I just mentioned rearranging." "You should." "Put your stamp on it." "I'm not set in my ways." "Tell that to Christine." ""Somebody took my weed. "" "Okay." "I'm sorry." "I have to put my son out of his misery." "You're free to go." "Hey, buddy, take your plate with you." "We clean up after ourselves in this house." "Okay, back to my story." "Trent was it last summer that you and I got stuck on our boat?" "That is because this bastard buys gas three dollars at a time!" "Susanna, close the screen door!" "I'm getting eaten alive by mosquitoes!" "I don't like the way you're acting, young lady!" "You wouldn't be this way if your dad was here!" "Hey." "Hey." "Sorry about that." "I didn't..." "I don't care." "It's not like we were using our inside voices." "That's cool." "That's cool." "So, you're a big fan of REO Speedwagon?" "What?" "Can't Fight This Feeling?" "Oh, no." "My mom must have put that on there." "Oh, and you just got to it and thought," ""What the hell." "I'm going to sing the shit out of it, anyway?"" "Something like that." "Sucks here, huh?" "It's okay." "It sucks." "No." "Totally." "It blows." "So much." "It's tough, yeah." "All right." "It feels like it's going to be a hot summer." "Oh." "I thought we were done." "Oh." "I was just thinking about that earlier." "The hot thing." "And it just came to me again." "So, I said it." "Okay." "Well, if anything else comes to you again," "I will be inside." "Are you kidding me?" "They drank all the beer." "You're not looking in the right place." "Don't get mad at me, Peter." "I don't know where you're looking!" "Forget it!" "It's gone!" "No, next time you say, "Look at the seagull,"" "you just have to remember to point!" "There goes one there now."

"But that's the first level." "Yeah, and I got one man left." "So, like I said, it's the game of my life." "You like Pac Man?" "What?" "It's a classic!" "Not into all the bells and whistles, my man." "Too much going on." "See, my mistake is that I get greedy." "Going for all the ghosts and fruits instead of just clearing pellets." "You know, there's a pattern." "Right?" "Oh, don't tell me you're one of those guys." "Takes all the challenge out of it." "Anybody can learn a pattern." "Owen, we gotta go!" "Come on." "Lunch hour's over." "Well, so much for the game of my life." "But you still have one more man left." "No, I've yet to see the second board." "Gives me something to look forward to." "The board's always the same."

"Nothing's left to the imagination with you, huh, kid?" "Oh and hey!" "No pattern on my quarter." "Cut your own path." "There you are." "We were just about to leave without you." "Where did you go off to?" "Nowhere." "Let's leave notes, okay?" "Your mom was worried." "You need to get your swim trunks on." "Kip and Joan have invited us out on their boat." "We're gonna be late." "Head's up, buddy." "You need to wear that." "I think he's gonna be all right without that." "No, Duncan can't swim." "Trent, he's just not a comfortable swimmer." "I really think he's gonna be okay without it." "No, just wear it." "So people don't have to worry about you." "Yes, we're inviting ourselves." "Accept it and move on." "Peter does have to stay down below though." "His eye throws off his equilibrium and he will get sick everywhere." "No, I won't, Mom!" "Tell that to the bucket we have to bring!" "Mom, why do I have to wear this?" "Nobody else does." "He just wants you to be safe." "Is that snug enough?" "You know what?" "We take our shoes off." "Oh, God." "Sorry." "Tell me this is gonna clear, Trent." "It's gonna clear." "My titties need some color." "Basically, he was relentless." "And don't get me wrong." "I was looking." "I had been divorced for well over a year." "It just took a little persistence on my end." "I wasn't sure about you." "I met her when she was catering some Halloween party in Albany." "He went as a sexy cop." "Oh, God!" "No." "I went as a '70s, badass cop." "Oh, he followed me around all night, saying that he was there to "protect and serve" me." "That about ended it right there for me." "Sadly, I would have been working his bag at that point." "However, I do remember." "You did let me help you pack your van at the end of the night." " Yes, I did." " Yes, you did." "Then it took three months to get her to go out with me." "Three months?" "I did not know you had that kind of stamina." "She definitely made me work for it." "But it was worth it." "There may be hope for you yet." "What finally changed your mind?" "He said we were already in this together, so I might as well." "It's been almost a year." "Yeah." "Duncan." "You guys, help yourselves." "Could you look a little more miserable?" "Could he be even more of a dick?" "Hey." "He's making an effort." "He wants this to work." "He wants us to be a family." "Yeah, he says that, but that's not what he does." "Look, I know this isn't easy, but you promised, remember?" "You'd give it a try." "I don't understand why I can't just spend the summer with Dad." "Because you're with me." "Hey, buddy, the cooler's not going to get to the car by itself." "Good morning, sweetheart." "Do you want some breakfast?" "No." "I'm good."

"If it's too much trouble, you totally don't have to, but..." "If you need someone..." "Duncan." "Yes." "There you go." "Tomorrow. 9:00 a. m." "Who was that you were with?" "Just a friend." "A friend who drives?" "Mom." "What's his name?" "Owen." "And how do you know him?" "Mom, he's just a friend." "A friend with a license?" "Well, you should bring him by." "Okay?" "I'd like to meet him." "Fine." "Whoa." "I'm not done." "We don't stay out all night and disappear all day." "Do you understand me?" "I could say the same to you." "What?"

"Do you want me to make you a plate of food?" "No, I can do it." "Be sure to get some clams." "They were all my doing this year." "Bring your food over here and eat with me, okay?" "Okay." "Charlie, don't do your "Dead" dance so close to the fire!" "I don't need my first born bursting into flames at my party." "What's up, Peter?" "Hey, man." "How's the battle going?" "Luke and Leia are hooking up." "You know they're brother and sister, right?" "Yeah." "Cool." "I'd avoid the clams if I were you." "They're one of the many casualties of my father's absence." "Oh." "Just because your mom will see my plate." "It's your funeral." "Oh, Charlie!" "Looks like my brother just made another sale." "We'll be right back." "Hey." "Peter." "Yeah." "You want to go chase ghost crabs?" "Oh, hell, yeah!" "Duncan?" "Any interest?" "Yeah." "Sure." "When I was younger, my dad used to bring me down here to do this all the time." "He'd fill my head with all these useless facts about ghost crabs." "Like, did you know they're omnivorous?" "Basically, they eat both animals and vegetables." "My mom jokes, "Leave it to your dad" ""to be interested in a creature that goes both ways. "" "So, do you want me to keep talking or are you going to say something eventually?" "My mom doesn't smoke pot." "That's the power of this place." "It's like spring break for adults." "That's what I think really kills my mom."

"New place." "So, he says it's not a great time right now." "But I'm going to go visit him soon once he gets settled." "It's supposed to be awesome out there." "California." "That's cool." "Yeah."

"Just not this summer?" "Who cares?" "We're never gonna die." "You were gone that whole time and you only brought the marshmallows?" "Joan has the rest." "I can't get up!" "Here you go."

"And it's gonna be another week until I get the parts." "Well, that doesn't fit my schedule." "Uh..." "I'm just..." "How much more do you need?" "Do something, Mom!" "You know what's happening."

"I told him that we had chased ghost crabs." "It made him very happy." "I felt like he was here." ""Did you tell him about the eyes, Susanna?" ""You've got to tell him about their eyes!"" "He gets so excited." "See, their eyes can rotate 360 degrees." "They can see everything that's around them." "But they can't look straight up." "Which makes it easy for birds to attack them." "So they have to gather their food at night for safety." "I don't know." "My dad finds it cool." "He's a dork." "Wait." "Duncan." "I'm sorry." "Hey, it didn't mean anything." "It was just a mistake." "A stupid mistake." "God!" "I'm such an asshole!" "Pam." "Listen." "You deserve better." "I know that." "I have to be better." "I have to be better." "I'm gonna be better for you." "And for Duncan."

"And I've spent a night in jail before." "But there's a limit to everything." "Who's your friend?" "Peter." "Nice eye patch." "Thanks." "You don't sound too cool with it." "My mom makes me wear it."

"Seriously." "You know how many bits I could do with that?" "Daring people to look me straight in the eye?" "That thing is awesome." "You mind if I mingle?" "Sure." "But keep your hands in your pockets." "You look a little shady to me." "I'll circle back." "Got a lot of confidence." "Hey, man." "What's up?" "So you're having a party?" "Yeah, we're having a farewell for Lewis." "I think he's serious this time." "Did you want to talk to me?" "No, I just wanted to hang out." "All right." "How about we say you hang out for a little bit?" "Okay?" "I'm sure you'll be wanted at home at some point." "You're a popular guy." "Owen, you shouldn't have."

"I'm gonna have to sit for this." "No." "You don't know where this has been." "Um..." "Well, won't say that I won't miss some aspects of this place." "It wasn't completely void of decent times." "I remember a couple of days that were almost memorable." "I guess if there's one thing I will miss dearly, it's..." "Oh, my God!" "What the hell, man?" "It's part of our tradition."
