01x03 - I Hope He Doesn't Punch Me In The Face

[bunniefuu]

Denise: Previously on X Life.

Pierre knows I party like a rock start.

Pierre: With Denise, I definitely know

what I signed in for.

You know, she's definitely a nutcase.

Oh, my God.

I love Cory to death

but he's embarrassing the hell out of me.

Oh, my God. Cory.

Obviously, I turned into Nasty

at some point and blew it.

My whole life has been so selfish.

No other girl could make me say

I love her more than my bike. That's for sure.

Honey, do you know how much that means to me?

I love you.

Cory: Tonight on X Life.

Hey.

I'm getting married.

I am going to ask Nicole's

mommy and daddy if I can marry their daughter.

I'm late.

This should be scary.

(tires screeching)

Man: Jesus Criminy.



- What the hell?

- Did you see that guy?

Cris: My God, Cory.

What's going on with you lately?

You have to understand that sometimes

you're not the easiest person



- to talk to.

- You know, I think

she really wants me to step it up

and marry her, but I just don't really see the point.



- You think you're funny, right? Pierre: Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I... I'm not screaming.

This is such a bullshit.

(music playing)

What up, bud?

Cory: What's up, big man?

What's cracking?

How you doing?



- Tired, dude. Cory: Dude, I got to go

to Australia in a week.

What do you got over there? A show?

I got a contest and then, um,

part of the tour, and then a contest

at the end of the tour.

What are you gonna do with the kids?

You bringing them?

I'm bringing my girl

with me and she doesn't have no idea.

And I'm about to propose to her.



- Shut the f*ck up. Cory: Yeah.

Congrats, man.

Yeah. That's probably the smartest thing

I've ever heard you said.

Cory: Yeah, right?

Jeremy: I think it's cool that Cory's

about to propose to Nicole,

like it's been a long time coming, man.

They've been together forever, off and on, off and on.

They got a family. Like, I think it's about time,

so I think it's cool. I'm excited for him.

Fly her and be like, "Oh, watch this contest?

Is it psyche?

Will you marry me?"

(laughing)

Cory: She's not expecting it at all, dude.

Jeremy: Oh, man.

Cory: Before I go to Australia and propose to Nicole,

I am going to ask Nicole's mommy and daddy

if after all the sh*t I put his daughter through,

if I can marry their daughter.

Uh, this should be scary.

Hey, I'm getting married.

(laughing)

Cory: Thank you. Jeremy: Keep acting like that,

you won't.

Cory: Nicole's parents are separated,

so the first one I'm gonna talk

to is Nicole's mom.

Then I'm gonna move over to dad.

And then I got to go meet up with my mom

and that's gonna suck because she doesn't get along

with Nicole at all.

(music playing)

Denise: Pierre, are you hungry?



- I... Pierre: Yeah, and I'm starving.

I went to the store and I got egg salad.



- I have... Pierre: Um, give me some fruit,



- egg salad, and... Denise: Do you want me

to make you a plate?

Yeah, that'd be pretty awesome.

Denise: So Pierre and I are in a little bit

of a gray area.

We've been together for three years

and, uh, I used to think

that we were gonna get married and, you know,

have the normal life, kids,

and all that stuff. And instead,

we have two French bulldogs

that are like our babies.

Look at him.

Uh, can you not...

Can you concentrate on me now?

Thanks. It's been, kind of,

nice to see you take a break honestly.

Like, I know that you're very busy

and you're very dedicated to what you do



- and I always...

- No, I wanna take a break,



- like, my body...

- Can I finish what I'm saying

before I fling fruit at you?

Come on, relax.



- Um...

- Just take it easy.

You had too much coffee this morning or what?



- What's your problem? Denise: No, every time

I'm trying to say something,

you're, like, interrupting me.

Pierre: I'm definitely a hundred percent

committed to Denise.

We've been living together

for three years.

You know, I think she really wants me to step it up

and marry her.

But, uh, what's a ring gonna change,

you know what I mean?

I wanted to make a list

of things that I would like

for you to do around the house.



- Oh, really? Denise: Now that your season

is over. You know, the things

that you say you're gonna do.

Pierre: Oh, yeah.

- All year

-long?

Man, that's what I'm telling you.



- I was like... Denise: The broken faucet.

And I travel so much during the year

and I'm kind of waiting for all these events.

Denise: No, no.

- And I got all...

Denise: Pierre, shut up.

Um...

(music playing)

(dog barks)

Nicole: Babe, those dogs are huge.

Cory: If you're in trouble by a dog,

the code, Trey, is...

(screams)

(laughing)

Nicole: There's Denise.

Oh, my gosh.

Okay. I'm having a heart att*ck.

I know.

Nicole: She's so little...



- I know. Nicole: ...to be around

all these damn dogs.

I'm scared.

I'm sorry.

Pierre: What up. Denise: We're here to meet Cory,

Nicole at the Del Mar dog beach

and although I'm really excited to go see them,

I don't like going to that f*cking beach.

People don't know how to, like,

you know, watch their dogs and, uh, it...

It's just not something

that I feel like doing today, you know?

Denise, let her off.

Denise: No, I'm not.

So, I can go chase her now?

Pierre: They're good. I'm telling you.

Let her off.

Denise: No. Pierre: Hey.

Denise: No, get out of there.

Pierre: Come on. Denise: Oh, my God.

Pierre: Zoey. Zoey, come on.

Denise: No, don't drink that.

That's like a foot of water, take it easy.

Because it got filth in it.

Do you smell that?

You're an idiot.

Nicole: Babe, I'm worried about,

uh, Pierre and Denise, are they...

Are they really fighting?

That's why I got me a California girl.

Nicole: Oh.

Cory: Little more expensive

but way less drama.

A little more expensive?

I just recently got to know Denise and Pierre

and I don't know if they like each other.

They're still walking the dog together,

you know what I mean?

That's true.

Me and you, we drive the cars

in separate ways.

Nicole: Yeah. That's true.

Denise: Get over here.

No, no.

Zoey, no, please.

Oh, my God.

No, no, no, no.

Zoey.

No, no, no, no.

Pierre: Babe, take it easy.

There's nowhere to go.

Denise: They're doing construction there,

you idiot.

I'm like, "You know, maybe we shouldn't

have kids together. God forbid,

one of them takes off, you're just gonna stand there

and see what happens? I don't know."

Pierre: That's pretty funny watching her chasing



- those birds.

- It's time to go.

Thanks.

Pierre: Hey.

- Give me the f*cking dog.

Pierre: Denise, what are you doing?

Denise: Have fun.

(music playing)

Cory: Hey, what's going on with her?

Trey: Mama.

- You guys seem different.

I feel like she's always like

telling me what to do.

Like, do this, do that.

And then if it doesn't get done

like this second, then she gets upset.

And it's like, come on, like, give me a break.



- Like... Nicole: I guess the question

is, is like, uh,

how in love are you guys.

Maybe it's just not meant to be.

(tire screeches)

Nicole: Coming up. Pierre: Right now,

I'm the one that's working,

that's making money.

Denise: It makes me feel beneath him,

like, it's not my house

and it's not my money.

What are you? Doing me a favor

by taking me to a f*cking beach



- I don't wanna go to?

- Stop screaming.

Like, you think you're funny, right?

It's pretty freaking simple.

Am I talking to you?

Um, you're gonna have to.

I know my mom doesn't wanna see me right now.

She doesn't wanna see my face.

She doesn't wanna hear what I have to say.

I'm proposing to her.

Oh, don't tell me that.

Don't tell me that.

Don't tell me that.

(birds chirping)

(tire screeching)

Man: Jesus Criminy. What the hell was that?

Holy sh*t.



- That's Cory. Man: I recognize the car.

Cris: Oh, my God. What the hell is he doing here?

Man: What the hell?

- Did you see that guy?

Cris: What the hell are you doing?

Man: No. Heard it.

Cory: Someone just peeled out

right in front of your house.

Oh, my God, Cory.



- You prick.

- How are you doing?

You scared the sh*t out of me.

Cory: Nicole's parents are split up,

so I'm gonna go see her mom first.

I'm, kind of, nervous because I definitely

was an idiot with Nicole in the past.

I'm, kind of, known as the ladies' man or whatever.

And I think that every time something went down,

you know, she would tell her mom

what a dipshit I am.

So it's gonna be rough.



- Um...

- What's going on?

...well, I'm here today to tell you something.



- You are.

- Or at least ask you something.

Okay.

Cory: You know what I've been trying to do

for years with your daughter?



- What?

- Okay. You know what

she's wanted for years

that I haven't gave her?

Uh, she wants your name.

Yeah.

It's show time.



- That's what we're doing.

- What? Really?



- That's what we're doing.

- No way.

I'm taking her to Australia

and I'm gonna propose to her.

Man: Wow. Cory: I just want your blessing.

Cris: What?

Cory: Yeah.

- Really?

Cory: It's about time.

I had to check with mom

and then I'm actually gonna check with her daddy.

Oh, you are? Okay. Good.

Cory: Nicole really looks up to her dad,

so it's really important to me that...

To get her dad's blessing.

I don't know if he's gonna say,

"You're a schmucky ass kid."

Um, we'll see when I get there.

Cris: I want you guys to be happy

but remember it isn't always fun and games

when you're married, you know?

I know. We had two kids.

Party is over, babe.

Never ever make her feel

like you're gonna go away.

Nope.

Cris: That's the main thing.

Cory: No. I love her.

Cris: Okay. Cory: Forever.

Cris: That's what I wanna hear.

Give me a hug.

Cris: Okay.

You know how important...

You know I got your daughter.

I'm excited.

Oh, my God.

(music playing)

Hi.

What did you buy?

I like them.

How much were they?

Denise: They were ...

Pierre: Bring them back

No, I like them.

What did I tell you about being smart with money?

I love you.

Pierre: Denise definitely love shopping.

It's, kind of, funny. She's always trying

to hit me up, like, "Give me some money.

I wanna go shopping."

You know, I'm definitely fine with that

because, you know,

she's having a bad day or something.

It's gonna cheer her up.

Were you really upset at the beach?



- Um... Pierre: What's going on

with you lately?

Oh, Lord.

Really?

Pierre: What do you mean really?

Well, you're very disconnected as a person.



- I have...

- I'm disconnected?

Denise: You are. Like, we don't really have

conversations about anything.

Like, you have to understand that sometimes

you're not the easiest person to, like,

open up to, to talk to.

All right. So, what do you want me to do?

Denise: This is such a bullshit.

All right. It's a bullshit.

Denise: I just want you to listen to me.

If we're at dinner and I'm talking to you

I want you to put your phone down

and acknowledge me.

All I'm asking you to do is turn it off once in a while

because I've tried to talk to you about things

over and over again and it goes in one ear

and out the other and you go, "Yes, Denise,

I hear you." And then the next minute

you'll go, "f*ck you.

I don't have to do that. I pay for everything,"



- like, yeah, seriously...

- What are you talking about?

Like, that's the way that I feel sometimes.

Right now I'm the one that's working,

that's making money for the food, uh,

you know what I mean? Like, I go out there



- and skate for a long time. Denise: So basically

I wanna clarify something.

Pierre: You don't have to do that.

So since you don't have to do that

then you should be doing more than me



- around the house. Denise: He's always competing

what he does for me, what he does for me

and it makes me feel beneath him

like it's not my house and it's not my money

and even if we're not getting married right now

I would like to have that connection with him.

You know, something when I made dinner

and I've gone food chopping

and I'm tired.

But I just don't see where you're tired from.



- Excuse me? Pierre: It's just like



- normal stuff.

- Excuse me.



- First of all, you don't... Pierre: It's not like

we have kids or you have a day job.

Denise: Maybe my life is a little bit different

than the way it was like when I...

Pierre: It's pretty freaking simple

like you really don't have to do them much.

Denise: ...once in a while for help.

I'm allowed to, that's what you do



- in a relationship.

- That's not once in a while.

God, are you kidding me?

Like, life is easy for you, right?

Like, uh, you know,

she definitely loves all the benefits

that come with what I do.

I don't know. I feel like sometimes

she should be a little bit more,

uh, forgiving with me.

I'll get back from skating, I'll be b*at up.

I can barely walk here like

: at night because, like,



- I'm so b*at up from skating.

- But Pierre it's never...



- And try to film a trick...

- All right.



- ...or something.

- You know what, it's...

Pierre: When I walk in...

- You know what I have

to accept? I have to accept the fact...

...you like, "Take the dogs out for a walk."



- All right. Pierre: Like, can't you walk

them, you're lying on the couch watching TV.



- Give me a break.

- No, I'm not lying

on the couch watching TV,

you f*cking liar.

I'm... You don't feed them.

You don't walk them.

Let's look it today,

you went to the beach.

I didn't wanna go to the beach.

Pierre: Whoa, whoa, whoa.

I... I'm not screaming.

What are you doing me a favor

by taking me to a f*cking beach

I don't wanna go to?



- Stop screaming.

- Seriously.

Like, you think you're funny, right?

Pierre: I'm just saying, today we went to the beach.

Denise: I don't wanna talk any of this anymore.

Like honestly, I don't wanna talk to you anymore.

Pierre: You went shopping, you had a drink.

You came home.

Denise: Honestly, I don't ever wanna go shopping

because I wanna throw them in my face

for f*cking times.

Pierre: It's not a...

I'm not throwing it in your face.

Denise: Honestly, it's returnable.

It's f*cking returnable.

I don't need to eat sh*t

every time I f*cking step out of this house

and buy something.

Honestly, I don't even wanna have

this f*cking conversation anymore.

All right.

(music playing)

Woman: Coming up. Cory: I got to talk

to Nicole's dad.

I'm late.

Nobody wants to talk

to your soon to be fiancée's dad.

I want you to know I wanna marry your daughter.

Hopefully, he doesn't punch me in the face.

(music playing)

Denise: Are you hungry?

Me too.

After that big fight with Pierre

I'm just realizing that my problems

with Pierre are a little bit deeper

than I had originally thought.

So, hey, Denise.

You know, I've been thinking about

whatever we talked about last night



- and, um...

- No, you don't.

No, honestly, and I got a surprise for you.



- What?

- I got a surprise for you.

It's gonna be fun. So yeah, just bring...

Denise: Just... I'm scared.

- Just...



- Do not, you know...

- I'm not skydiving again.

Pierre: No, we're not.

- I hyperventilated in the air.

Pierre: I said, uh...

I didn't say bring a parachute.

The last thing I want is Denise to feel

like I don't care about our relationship

so I'm definitely gonna try

to do some special for her.

Okay.

(music playing)

How's it going?

Denise: I love getting tattooed

because it's a memory.

It's something you're always gonna have with you

and it was an amazing surprise

and, you know, at least Pierre is trying,

you know, that means something to me.

Um, the anchor do you want it the same one

that he's gonna get or do you want more



- of like, uh... Pierre: Yeah, I was gonna get



- a bigger one and... Denise: What is he getting?



- I thought...

- Pierre: ...let's see, she get

maybe like a more feminine version

of what you're doing to me.

Denise: I don't really care if it's feminine



- it's... Yeah.

- No?

There are pink bows on the anchor.

Pierre: So I feel like it would really mean something

for her and myself to get matching tattoos

and definitely be like a step further

in our relationship.

Maybe it's not a ring yet but,

you know, the tattoos are always gonna be there.

Man: So, why an anchor?

Pierre: Uh, honestly, again, anchor,

you know, something that keeps you stable

and grounded. You know, that's the only way

to stay focused.

Man: Being stable is no fun.

I know. I'm so unstable.

Pierre: And you're all over the place

so you definitely need an anchor.

Are you my anchor?

I might be, yeah.

Denise: I know that he loves me

and I love him.

I just don't know that marriage

is something that's gonna happen

right this minute.

At least we're making an effort to work on things,

you know, so I'm just...

I'm appreciating the fact

that we are still fighting for each other.

So I think it's cooler we're getting the same tattoos.

Pierre: And I love it. Denise: It's a pretty big step

in our relationship. Pierre: And what, it's a step,

um, before a ring.

Denise: That's what I'm saying.

By the time I'm I'll get a ring.

Pierre: Let's start with tattoos

and we could stop fighting.

We could stop fighting?

I'll start walking the dogs



- more often. Denise: So, how is it...

(music playing)

Cory: After talking to Nicole's mom,

I was going to meet her dad.

Nicole's dad is a lot like me.

I just know he's got no patience and,

uh, it's his number one daughter

and I'm this freaking hotshot douchebag

and I was late.

This guy does not tolerate that,

so it was a bad way to start off.

Not only was I nervous in general,

I was late.

So, what an idiot I am?

I'm late.

Hopefully, he doesn't punch me in the face.

(music playing)

I'm late.

I know how fathers are with their daughters

and I know I wasn't the guy that any father

would want their daughter with.

(sighs)

How you doing? How's everything going?



- It's been good.

- Good.



- It's been real good.

- Good.

I wanted to, uh, bring you here,

and I love your daughter,

she's my heart and soul.

We've come so far through good and bad

that like I hate this word

but she completes me.

I want you to know I wanna marry your daughter.

Oh, Cory.

It's about time.

It's about time.

Yeah.

Wow. Awesome.

Good job, Cory.

I want you to know that I'll take care of her

for the rest of her life.

As long as she's happy and she is,

she's never wanted anybody more in her life than you.



- Yeah.

- And you know better than me.

You get one chance in life, buddy,

you know, and this is it.

I thought you're just gonna punch me.



- Come here.

- No. No.

Cory: I thought you're gonna punch me.

I know how important Nicole's family is to her

and what it means which is why

I still have to talk to my mom.

But at the moment things seem to be falling into place

and I wasn't sure if they would.

I wish I could go home and tell her.

She'd be so stoked.

Yeah, I know.

(music playing)

Cory: My mom lives in the house I bought her

with my other sister's kids,

Tyler and Taylor,

and she needs to know that I'm marrying Nicole.

Angel: Am I talking to you?

Cory: This is gonna be rough

because the last time Nicole

and my mom were together

big fight broke out...

(makes noise)

You didn't answer me, am I talking to you?

Cory: Um, you're gonna have to.

I know my mom doesn't wanna see me right now.

She doesn't wanna see my face.

She doesn't wanna hear what I have to say.

You and my other half

said very bad things to each other,

almost fight each other, I had to call the cops,

you know, that's the mother of my kids.

What did I do?

You can't talk to the mother of my kids like that.

Let's just say you don't like her,

let's say you don't want me to be with her, okay, fine.

Uh, those are my kids,

those are your grandbabies.

She jumped all over me.

I don't know why. I've been very good to Nicole.

Cory: I asked you to come here



- and chill out...

- Oh, here we go again.

...and just bite your tongue or whatever you needed to do

so you didn't go crazy

and you couldn't do it.

By the last day you see us,

we're leaving and you said everything you wanted to say

times a million

and that's not cool.

I'm not gonna say anything.

Are you ready for this?

Huh, don't tell me she's pregnant.

Oh, don't tell me that.

Don't tell me that.

Don't tell me that.

Hurry up and tell me.

Hurry up.

Give me a drink, I don't drink but I will now.

What? No. Seriously,

uh, you're pulling my leg, right?

Cory: With my mom, it's not about her

giving me her blessing,

it's just about my mom

knowing that her son

has found the one.

I'm proposing to her next week.

Oh, good.

You should get married.

I don't have to like her

but that's the proper thing to do.

You have two children to raise.

That's what I did.

I always got married

and maybe three or four times

but I was always married.

So, you're down with it?

I have no part of it, just be happy.

Leave me alone.

Cory: Are you gonna come to my wedding at least?

Oh, my God.

Cory: Talking with Nicole's parents,

talking with my mom,

it could all went...

(makes noise)

Nicole's parents could easily shut me down

because of all the stuff I did in the past.

My mom could have been like, "If you marry Nicole,

I'm never talking to you again,"

but in the end

I think they all just want us to be happy.

Family is about unconditional love.

And I just wanna complete my family

and get Nicole and my kids this beautiful wedding.

Angel: You could...

- Don't tell nobody, though.

Don't tell her. Give me a hug.

Angel: You could always get a divorce, how's that?

Oh, my God.

(music playing)

Woman: Next time on X Life.

Cory: You know about Australia, right?

Nicole: Know what about Australia.

Cory: Nicole thinks I'm bringing her out there

for BMX event.

I'm not. I'm actually bringing her there

to ask her to marry me.



- What are you doing? Jeremy: I got to go sh**t

photos real quick for an ad that's due.

Susie: I planned for the whole day

for us to hang out.

Jeremy always does this.

He forgets everything he promised.

It's seriously like...

Nicole: Sus, don't cry.

I'm just like really sad about it.

Pierre: I'm sorry about this, bro.

Oh, my God. She got you...

Denise: I got to pin it. I got to pin it.

A costume that's... I don't know.

I don't know what to say about it.

That's actually pretty funny.

Is the top gonna stay on?

Denise: I got to go get a pin.

Oh, my God, she's so cute.

Don't bite his ears.

Don't.

Pierre: All right.

Oh, my God.

Pierre: Can you, um...
