Okay.

So half of these are water,

half are vodka, and I
definitely mixed them up,

so I have no idea which is which.

Hey, babe?

Like, do we try them now
so we know which is which?

Or do we just play alcoholic roulette

- when we get to the parade?
- Okay.

- Here's another possibility.
- Huh?

What if we just stay home,
cuddle, and watch the news?

- "The news"?
- Yeah, you know the news.

Those channels that make me suicidal.

Uh, you have actively
avoided watching any coverage

of the sh**t's trial.

- And now you want to...
- And maybe that was a mistake.

- [SIGHS]
- Okay, fine.

I don't care what happens to him,

and I have no desire to watch.

I don't want to go because I don't know

if I can see "he who must not be named"

- without punching him.
- Really?

My trans girlfriend is
quoting Harry Potter?

I'm reclaiming it.

Plus, it seems like something
that would piss off Joanne,

and that's a fun bonus.

Okay, I know you mad at Brodie, but...

Well, this is all his fault.

- [SIGHS]
- What?

Ruthie, I am trying so
hard to be patient with you.

I really am. But are
you f*cking kidding me?

This is not a Brodie problem.

This is a you and Brodie problem.

He's a bad influence,
yeah, but you lie to me.

You sneak out. You.

You get that, huh?

And if you can't acknowledge
that after all of this,

I don't know what we doing here.

I do get that.

Really.

Okay.

Now, the kids are at Brenda's.

We have the whole day to ourselves.

Can we please go to
this parade and have fun?

Please?

- Of course.
- Yaap.

You're making too big
of a deal about this.

Am I? Or are you delusional?

- Brodie, delusional?
- Never.

Ha ha, you're hilarious.

This is the perfect opportunity
for us to hash things out.

Think about it... we'll be
on a moving float together.

She can't run away.

That sounds like a really good idea.

Thank you.

Okay, I'm just gonna
throw this out there.

Have you ever considered
giving Ruthie some space?

No. I f*cked up.

I have to do something about it.

Sounds like drama.

Maybe I'll skip lunch
and go to the parade.

Wow. Is Noah a little scared?

I'm not scared.

I just don't know if I want
to have lunch with my dad,

I mean, 'cause our sh*t's complicated,

Shut up.

I mean, he's never even visited me here.

Well, he's here now, right?

I mean... that's progress.

[CHUCKLES] I guess?

But, like, what am I gonna
do with him, you know?

I made a list of possible things

that we could do after lunch.

, and of the things listed

are "sports bar" and
"bar to watch sports."

I mean... [SIGHS]

Maybe I'm overthinking it.

- What if I came to lunch?
- Instead of my dad?

[GASPS] That'd be so much more fun.

I'm serious. I'd love to meet him.

Also, I mean, after
all the amazing things

you've said about him,
it's like, how could I not?

I would love that.

But are you ready for that?

I grew up in the
Beaumont household, okay?

I'm immune to parental intimidation.

Also, I want to figure out your secrets.

You can tell a lot about someone

- from meeting their parents.
- Mm. Never mind.

Consider yourself
uninvited, you little spy.

[SIGHS] No one I've
ever dated has met him.

Well, I'd be honored to be the first.

Also, um, maybe we should
think about telling Brodie.

I mean, not that I'm passing the blame,

but why do these kids have
to film every f*cking moment

at every f*cking party anyways?

Can't they just live in the moment?

Is that too much to f*cking ask?
