"I want to be able to see the show." "All right, well, you can't take it in there." "Crosby, did you bring weed here?" "We're in San Francisco." "I can't bring some grass in there?" "Okay, well, look, if you want to come in the club, you can throw this away and I'll let you in the club." "I'm a dad of two." "I have a mortgage, I have a crazy mother-in-law, and this is my night to go in there, burn a little leaf in the toilet, and relax." "How about you let me do that?" "I'll just go in, and we'll do that." "Whoa." "Are you gonna be a problem?" " Ow, ow, ow." " Am I gonna be a problem?" "No, I'm not a problem." "Just let me in." " No." " Oh, I'm a problem." " Hey, old guy." " Huh?" "Old guy!" "Move it along." " Okay." " Crosby..." "Why don't you pipe down, all right?" " Crosby, chill." " Move it along!" "Soundgarden broke up!" "They're not playing tonight!" "Okay, one direction's not playing either, so you're in the wrong line." "Listen to me..." "Crosby." "Go ahead and get all your..." "whoa, whoa, whoa." " Crosby, something's wrong." " What?" "Maybe I'm having the baby or something." "I got to go." "Okay." "Get me to the hospital right now." "You guys are lucky." "Oh, oh!" " Come on." "Come on." " You're a loser." " Crosby!" " You are a loser." "You just got saved by a pregnancy, bud." " Crosby." " Thank your lucky stars." " Crosby, come on!" " All right, bud?" "You all right?" "You need me to carry you?" " [Moans]" " Okay, we're here." "Ow." "I'm gonna find you somebody, all right?" " It hurts so bad." " Okay, listen." "Excuse me." "Excuse me." "We have a pregnancy situation here." "What's going on?" "A really bad pain or a cramp or something." "Okay, let's get you looked at." "Feels like another one's coming." "Okay, do you want me to call your mom?" "Ow!" "No, it's fine." " All right." " She's in Napa." "She can't do anything anyway." "Okay." "How about drew?" "Should I get drew on the phone?" "Um, no, I don't want to stress him out." "It's fine." "Okay." "So... you're gonna be fine." "We're here." "And then I stay..." "where do you want me?" " Crosby!" " Okay." "All right." "We'll get you in the room." "[Plastic cup rattles on ground]" "Hank." "Hey." "Uh, they're all gone." "All the kids are gone." "I got 'em all out, and I cleaned up the whole place, so don't worry." "It's all clean." "Thank you." "Where's Ruby?" "She is asleep..." "And hating me." "It's not funny." "No, it's no joke." "I mean, she actually said it." "She said those words." "She said, "I hate you, dad."" "Well, I'm sure she didn't mean it." "I'm pretty sure that she did." "It sounded like she did." "Yeah, she probably did mean it." "Are you happy?" "I don't get it." "What are you... is this like an asperger's thing that I can't..." "No, no." "I'm livid, actually, but with Ruby." "I feel like this is the first time" "I'm not on my own in this, and it's nice." "Yeah." "What do we do now, though?" "We got to punish her?" "Oh, yeah." "Yeah, yeah." "We are gonna ground her ass to the wall." " Yeah." " Three weeks." " Three weeks." " Minimum." "We could discuss it over a drink." "Did the kids bring anything good?" "Actually there's a bottle of Brandy." "[Chuckles] Ooh." "BlackBerry Brandy." "Remember that?" " That'll do." " Yeah, crack that open." "I feel like getting drunk." "[Groans]" "Oh, yeah." "That tastes like high school." "[Chuckles]" "I got to tell you, though, when..." "When she said "I hate you,"" "even if she didn't mean it, it hurt." "[Chuckles] Yeah." "I know." "She won't in the morning." " This is hard." " [Laughs]" "I know." "I didn't think it was going to be this hard." "Yeah." "Braxton Hicks contractions are very common, and I see nothing you need to worry about." "How are you feeling?" "Much better, thanks." "Good." "We're just gonna run a few more tests, and then you should be able to go home shortly." " Great." " Thanks." "That's a huge relief." "Yeah, thank you." "It was a little scary on the car ride." "Yeah, sorry." "Just..." "I dragged you out and then ruined our big night out." "Huh?" "No, no, no, no." "It ended up like this." "Are you kidding?" "Don't be sorry." "Are you... the only jerk tonight was that big galoot who stole my dime bag of weed." " [Laughs]" " Okay?" " Crosby." " I'm on a budget right now." "I can't be donating weed to door guys." "I can get you plenty of weed." "It's not a problem." "Seriously, though, I..." "I ruined our chance at getting that band to record at the luncheonette, and are we gonna be okay without that?" "Amber, it's... first of all, it's not on you to save the luncheonette." "That's Adam and I's job, so don't take that on." "And you need to be prepared for the possibility that it might not be saveable." "Crosby, no, you can't say that." "Crosby, please." "Don't walk away from this yet." "I know we can still fix it." "We love the luncheonette." "I know." "I do too, but, you know..." "There are certain realities that are going on right now, and you're about to find out what I'm dealing with, which is, you know, you get..." "you're responsible for people and they're counting on you, and you got to support 'em, so..." "Crosby." "I can't promise I'm gonna go down with the ship, if that's what's happening." "No, don't give up." "Please." "This is the luncheonette." "This is, like, our passion." "Please don't walk away from it just yet." "I really think we can still fix it." "[Indistinct chatter]" "Hello, Dylan." "I've been thinking, and it makes absolutely no sense that you would like Aaron." "You and I have more common interests than you and him, and also I am taller than him," " yeah, okay, Max..." " So the only reason" "I can think that you like him instead of me is that I have not properly expressed the nature of my feelings for you." " No, that's not..." " As such," "I've made you this incredible and romantic gift." "[Laughter]" "Oh, my gosh." "That is fantastic." "As you can see, I've incorporated horses into this collage, as I know you like horses from this drawing that you made." "Right." "Yeah, I see." "Also, these are photos of you." "Some of them are candid, some of them staged, and it shows my photography at its best." " Dylan, this is so romantic." " So romantic." "It is an incredibly romantic gift, and as you can see, I like you very much, and I want you to be my girlfriend." "Yeah, um, it's..." " It's completely creepy." " Yeah." "I don't care about what you two think." "Do you like it?" "I can't take this, Max." "I can't..." "I can't take this." "Of course you can." "If it helps, I can also express my feelings for you verbally." " No, that's okay." " Oh, I totally wanna hear this." " No, that's fine." " No, please, go ahead." "I enjoy the way you talk to me and the way that your hair smells." "Okay." "Max, can you please stop?" "Her hair smells really good." "Also you have incredibly blue, pretty eyes." " Max, can you please..." " I've been told to compliment your eyes and your smile, from the Internet." "Max, please stop." " It does not make any sense!" " That's not the point, Max." "I just... can you please stop?" "Please." " No, I'm not going to stop." " Please!" "Will... it doesn't make any sense that you like him more than you like me." " Max." " Especially with this." "Also I input all of our compatibility matches into an Internet matchmaker, and it told me that..." "That's not..." "Max, buddy, can you come in my office for a second, please?" "No, I'm not coming..." " I need to talk to you." " Lunch is not over, and I am not done expressing my love for Dylan." "Max, Max, I don't..." "I don't love you back." "Okay?" "Why?" "I don't know how to explain it." " Then what is it about?" " I don't know, Max!" "I don't understand!" "Max, I will never love you, okay?" "Please, just leave me alone!" "[Dramatic acoustic guitar music]" "♪ ♪" "Max." "Max!" "[Horn honks]" "Max!" "[Tires screech]" "What the hell is wrong with you?" "Are you kidding me?" "Max, buddy." "[Panting]" "Buddy." "You can't do that to me, okay?" "Can we talk about this?" "I just want..." "I don't want to talk about it." "I know you don't want to talk about it." "Well, can you just please listen?" "I know you're embarrassed, and I know that you're hurt, okay, and that's totally normal." "But I just want to tell you that I..." "I am so incredibly proud of you." "What you did up there took so much courage, and I thought that your collage was absolutely beautiful." "Absolutely beautiful." "Dylan's friend said it was creepy." "It's not creepy." "There was nothing about that that was creepy, honey." "You just showed your emotions, and you know how many people can't do that?" "It conveyed everything that you're feeling inside." "I had no idea you were feeling all those things, and it's just..." "Buddy, listen." "I know that it sucks right now, and I know that you're mad because Dylan doesn't feel the same way about you that you do her, but..." "I got to tell you," "I guarantee that someday very soon you're gonna have all these emotions again, and it's gonna be for the right girl, and you know how you're gonna know it's the right girl?" "Because that girl is gonna like you the same way back." "I can guarantee you." "So I don't want you to get down and I don't want you to get upset, 'cause what you did was truly amazing." "Doesn't feel amazing." "I know." " Hey." " Hi." "Can I talk to you for a second?" "I know you're busy." "Oh, it's fine." "Okay." "Oh, God." "What's up?" "Oh, man." "I'm so sweaty." " You're very pregnant." " [Laughs]" "So this is gonna sound dramatic, but I had to go to the hospital last night." " Are you okay?" " Yeah, I'm fine." " The baby's fine?" " Yeah, it's fine." "I just had this, like, really bad pain, and it turned out to be nothing, but still it was scary, you know, and..." " Yeah." " And I wanted to call you, like, obviously right away, but..." "Yeah." "Like, I didn't want to stress you out, and you've been so flipped out over this whole thing, and I just didn't want to, like, push you over the edge." "No, okay, if you go to the hospital, you have to call me." "I know, and I don't want to have there be any weird financial stress between us." "Yeah." "It's something I have to figure out." "Not... not you." " That's what I'm trying to do." " Is it?" " Yeah." " With economics?" "Okay." "It's not a lot of magic involved." "Economics is vaguely enjoyable." "It's not terrible." "Vaguely enjoyable." " Yes." " Hmm, that's a rave review to base the rest of your entire life on." "But you know what I'm saying." "I don't, and frankly I don't want you to waste any time on something that you don't really love." " I won't." " I'm serious." "Me too, yeah." " Yes." " I promise." "Okay." "Thanks." " Hey." " Hey." "I present to you our grounded teenage daughter." "May you fair better with her than I did." "Ruby, I will see you tomorrow, okay?" "Please try not to make your dad's life miserable." " Okay." " Okay." "Good luck." "Yeah." " Be strong." " I'll be all right." " Bye, guys." " All right." " Bye." " Bye-bye." " What?" " Nothing." "Nothing." "Just surprised you didn't run in your room already." "Slam the door." "Well, I can't watch TV or go online or talk to my friends, so..." "I hope you're prepared to entertain me." "Well, you don't need any of that stuff." "We're gonna figure something to do." "Do whatever you want." "You want to, uh... how about a puzzle?" "You want to do a puzzle?" " That..." " No?" "That's like when I was ten, dad." "Yeah, no, I know." "Um..." "Cards." "Wanna play some cards?" "Okay." "What game, though?" "Any game you want." "I mean, I know poker the best." "Do you know poker?" "No." " Well, want to learn it?" " Okay." " Yeah." " Yeah." "All right, I'll learn poker." "You should know." "Yeah, that's good." "Every kid should know poker." "All right, good." "I'll teach you..." "Texas hold'em." "Okay." "Don't tell your mom." "Tell your mom we did a puzzle, all right?" "Okay." "All right, so this is Texas hold'em." "We're gonna give you some chips." "This is gonna be your money." "Like, I'm gonna give you ten of these." "Each one's a dollar, and I'll take ten, and when you run out, you owe me $10." " No, I'm not..." " Yeah." "I'm not gonna let you win, though." "No, you took my privileges." "You can't take my money too." "Well, it's my money, anyway, really, right?" "So we'll just do it that way." "Okay." " Okay, we get two cards each." " Okay." "These aren't good, though." "Wait, can I get more?" "No, you don't do that." "See, you don't do that in poker." "You just keep a straight face." "You don't..." "you don't show any emotion." "Okay." "So then you're really good at it then." "[Chuckles] That's funny." "That's a joke, right?" "[Laughs] Yes." "♪ Catch me ♪" "♪ I don't even know... ♪ [Knock at door]" " Hey." " Hey." " So I get back from work about 4:00." "Maybe we can take the kids for some ice cream later?" " Yeah." " Good." "Honey, I hate that you're doing this." "I don't." "I'm doing what we have to do for the family." "Yeah, but..." "I hate that you have to do this." "It's not like you wanted to do this." "I feel like such a failure." "Why, baby?" "Because..." "I... you know." "We took all this risk at the luncheonette, and we stupidly followed this dream, and I should have been playing it way more safe." "I should have sold the luncheonette when I had the chance and just worked in taking care of everybody, and..." "I'm sorry, I just really regret that I..." "My appetite was that big." "Well, you shouldn't, because it's not a stupid dream, and I can do some providing too, you know?" "It's okay." "You know-clearly." "Yeah." "But, you know, you have dreams too." "You want to open a dance studio." "You don't want to file documents all day." "No, and I'm not, forever." "We'll all get our time to shine, baby." "It's okay." "I love you." "I love you."
