This stay-at-home dad was once the lead singer in a band who opened up for Kings of Leon...

ALL: Right over there.

Dad.

You ever feel down... for more than a couple of days?

Everybody feels sad, son.

It's just a part of life.

This is Hunter.

Hey, man. Nice to meet you.

Nice to meet you.

If any of these other people knew what I know, they would want you to get treatment.

Gary, they do know.

And they all support my decision.

What? You guys can't be serious.

Delilah gave it a thumbs up, but, you know, she's eating for two.

It's Jon's.

She's pregnant with Jon's baby.

Breast cancer?

I told you those power bars were just for women.

Dude, the only thing worse than that excuse is your defense.

Yeah, and your offense, my friend.

Deflecting it is.

The only reason I had to invest in airport clothing is 'cause your drunk ass left our suitcases in a cab.

Yeah, well, the thing is, we need a singer.

I don't know if I can go out on the road again, man.

M-My son needs me.

Look. I came by 'cause the guys needed to know if you were up for touring.

You're standing a couple feet from the bottle and you're not drinking it.

This could be huge.

Oh, God, Keith, I appreciate it, but...

Eddie.

This is a chance to do it right.

Show yourself you can do it.

Just think about it.

No, Mom, I was supposed to have the afternoon off, but something came up, and I-I can't miss it.

Especially with me being up for partner.

Really, T? Waffles and ketchup?

The ketchup brings out the taste of the blueberry.

Okay, uh...

I would set up a play date for Theo...

You gonna tell us what it is?

Remember our buddy Jon had a really hot assistant that I would occasionally think about having sexual intercourse with?

[TV SHUTS OFF]

You had sex with Ashley?

[WHISPERS] Is that bad?

Jon did say she was off-limits.

Uh, I just have one question for the friend group.

If you're so determined to have Maggie's back, how is it that you're just sitting there and watching her die?

I mean, didn't we already lose one friend that way?

I'm not giving this speech again.

No, sirs.

No, Ed, I think maybe your reaction is not proportionate.

Now we're gonna miss one so that you can go to a concert that you don't even want to go to and you can teach some acne-covered -year-old "Pinball Wizard."

Here's mine.

Oh, God.

[CLEARS THROAT] Okay, you guys want a speech?

Here we go. Here's a speech.

Thank you all very much for this party.

It's amazing.

Probably doesn't seem like I mean that, but I do, truly.

I just... Apparently, I'm angry right now, right?

Shocker.

And I am.

I'm... I'm... I'm unbelievably angry, but not at you.

You guys have all been amazing.

I mean, should we have scalped the Bruins tickets?

Probably. You get it.

[CLEARS THROAT]

Katherine, you took off work. That never happens.

Thank you.

This is all...

[SIGHS]

...so sweet.

But I'm so angry at the person who is not here.

I am so angry at Jon.

And you... yeah, you...

You gave the eulogy, and that was crazy, because everybody knows that I'm funnier.

But... it was beautiful, and you knocked it out of the park.

And I'm glad it was you because, you know...

You know what would have happened if it was me?

I would've done this.

EDDIE: Gary, no!

I would've done that!

And I would've talked about how Jon fought so hard to help me live and how he came to the treatment center so often that the other patients thought that he had cancer, too.

You, Jon, you...

You went through the whole thing with me, and you convinced me...

You convinced me to live, and then you left me.

[VOICE BREAKING] We were supposed to go on these little boats together.

That's so stupid.

Hey, two-player. Come on.

All right.

You may have beaten cancer today, Gary, but you're not gonna b*at me.

Correction...

We b*at cancer.

[SMACKS LEG]

Actually, I b*at cancer.

You just got skinny and bald.

[IMITATING ANNOUNCER] Oh, my God!

The game hasn't even started, and there's already a fight breaking out.

- Whoa!
- [NORMAL VOICE] Aah!

[LAUGHS]

I forgot, you were on the pillow-fighting team at Harvard.

No, I was on the wrestling team at Harvard.

No. You were the captain of the pillow-fight...
