I'm not surprised, with some of that cheap-ass ganj you've been smoking.

- Little help here!

- Put me down!

Put me down!

Ah!

[Fiona]

What happened?

- Is that bone?

[Noah]

It took six plates and screws, but I think we got Humpty Dumpty

- put back together again.

- dr*gs.

I went to get a test done, to find out if I inherited a genetic mutation from my mom that means I'm probably gonna die of breast cancer.

And?

I don't find out the results for a couple days.

Liam?

Liam, you home?

[phone chimes]

- You gonna answer?

- Took them two days to realize I was gone.

Can't be too worried.

I think we should break up.

Call me when you're not so needy.

[Lori]

Why the long face, little pirate?

[Carl]

I didn't make it past the first round of cuts for West Point, and my lesbian sister is in love with my girlfriend, trying to turn her gay, too.

- [gasps]

Oh, what are you doing?

- I'm sorry.

I'm not gay.

[Debbie]

She doesn't love me.

[Carl]

Kelly's a bitch.

She likes to break hearts.

We should go f*ck her up.

- Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

Oh!

[moans, sighs]

Kev?

- Did you just...

- Mm-hmm.

Eight seconds.

Have you been sending two children to our school for the price of one for months?

We're very sorry, Sister.

We need a Jesus for the Festival of St.

Felicity pageant next weekend.

[Veronica]

And you want Kev to be Jesus?

[Fiona]

I saw the "Help Wanted" sign.

Need a job.

Holy f*ck.

- Hi, Max.

- Uh, listen.

Zoning on that lot you're a partner in got approved.

I don't remember exactly how much

- A hundred.

Jesus, I'd have nightmares for years.
