[guitar keeps playing]
Obviously, I would learn
-how to play the guitar, but
-[music shuts off]
I think it's
a pretty achievable thing.
You are a born entertainer.
-This is something, uh...
-[guitar jangles]
-Oops, sorry.
This is something we would do
on the side, you know,
uh, to add to the enigmatic
story that is Dave.
Just a piece of the puzzle.
Um, I think when I do that
I'd like to go by
the stage name Mandemius,
and potentially
[accent]:
I might have a British accent
if I continue to work at it
and figure it out for myself.
But I might have
to take dialect lessons
in addition to the guitar, so...
Uh, how's the actual album
coming along, though, guys?
The XXLstuff
just came out,
and we'd like to ride
-that rapper momentum.
-Mm.
And you k*lled that sh*t,
by the way,
so could be
a lot of traction.
Thank you.
Um, they did a good job
editorially with that.
Uh, the album...
How do I want to even say this?
So I just want to say we do
appreciate you guys very much.
-The house is phenomenal.
-Great.
-EXEC: Our pleasure.
-So, so nice.
I don't think we have
to pussyfoot around this.
Tessa's my road dog.
[barks, chuckles]
So here's what's going on.
Penithis a bear, um,
and I'm a gorilla.
Don't get me wrong,
but what I'm finding out is that
when bears and gorillas,
-you know... you can't
crossbreed all the time.
-Mm.
I am trying to play God.
I'm realizing that might be
too much hubricof me.
So I am struggling
with the behemoth
that is Penith.
Uh, how much of it
would you say is done, though?
-Donedone?
-Yeah, done done.
Percentage-wise.
Done done. Uh...
♪ Dun dun dun.♪
Um, I've got, like,
four half songs
that I don't believe in at all.
So I don't even count those
as a... so...
Nothing.
-Um...
-Zero?
Yeah.
I do have six folk songs
that are incredible.
-The wrong genre, but...
-Um...
Especially since that
album release date is
closely approaching.
How much time, like,
do you think you might need?
Yeah, we might need to do a
little bit of a nudge there, uh,
but if we're being conservative,
I don't...
A year.
Daylight savings time has been
really throwing me off
-with the darkness.
-TESSA: Right.
Yeah, I think we'll just focus
on some housekeeping stuff then.
Housekeeping, great.
I-I would love a housekeeper.
-[Dave straining]
-CAROL: A right at the top
of the stairs,
and then another right.
Don't hit the sconce.
-Don't hit the Sconce.
-Okay, I'm not.
You have your own bathroom.
I think you're gonna like
the water pressure.
DON:
You know, David always took
the longest showers.
MIKE:
Yeah, I can imagine.
Aw, geez, I just can't believe
you got fired from that label.
Mom, I didn't get fired
from a record label.
-I don't work at a record label.
-MIKE: No, he got evicted.
Which is much worse
because it directly affects me.
It's the entertainment industry.
Some people lack patience.
They don't understand
what this is, fine.
The chip on my shoulder
just grows larger, okay?
What is this room, by the way?
It's like a little girl's room.
-Yeah.
-CAROL: It's an Airbnb.
It's so naiïve.
Well...
Mama, can you make me
a sandwich?
Of course, sweetheart.
Do you want it in triangles?
You got it.
-DAVE: Thanks, Mama.
-You're welcome.
[sarcastically]:
"Mama. Mama, will you make me
some sandwiches?
"And cut it up so my baby teeth
can get through this bread,
maybe?"
-CAROL: Michael?
-Yeah?
Would you like a sandwich?
Yeah, please.
-CAROL: Okay.
-Thank you.
Hey, man.
I don't think you're a failure.
I... Yeah. I don't think
I'm a failure either.
Why would you--
I don't--
I didn't think you thought that.
Okay. Good.
[vehicle approaching]
Sorry.
I got caught on this, like,
endless FaceTime
with my sister.
It was a whole thing, and...
-Hi.
-Hi.
-How are you?
-Good.
You know, a little bit
of a setback.
But...
Are you having a good time
living with your
favorite people again?
Uh, yeah. I feel like
I'm, like, you know,
reduced to my core.
I'm back, uh,
finding my roots.
Just wish it could be under
less embarrassing circumstances.
It's not embarrassing, Dave.
I was literally
kicked out of my house
for lack of productivity.
[chuckling]
Okay, I know that you
have a very specific plan
for how everything
is supposed to go,
and that this is
-not part of that, probably.
-Mm.
But it's just a detour.
Yeah, just a detour.
Well, I guess
you probably don't want
your, uh, housewarming gifts.
-You got me gifts?
-Yeah.
Come on.
Come to my, uh, my car,
where I have the gifts located.
-Come on.
-Sure.
-I'm in pursuit.
-Yeah.
% authentic gifts.
-There's multiple?
-Yeah. And this...
What-what is this?
What is this?
It's a headband for your hair.
Like you've always wanted.
You're always like,
-"Aah, my hair."
-Am I saying that?
It was custom-made for you.
So try it on.
Okay. Huh.
Oh. Oh, my God.
-Do I look good in this?
-Stunning.
-You look amazing!
-Is this a good look?
You should be a professional
f*ckin' Halloween player
-for soccer.
-What?
And... Okay, got it.
[whoops]
This is the big one.
-Get ready.
-Ooh, I gotta get
out of your way.
-[laughs] Are you ready?
-Yeah.
[exhales]
[laughs]
-Did you really?
-I did.
You have truly outdone yourself.
-Yeah.
-You have gotten me
the worst gift
a man could receive.
I mean, I can't even
blow up a balloon.
-Okay.
-You know that. Yeah.
-I did forget that you sa--
-I can't.
But I also don't think
that's true,
-Dave.
-You think I li--
Now you sound like the bullies
that I had to deal with
who said, "This guy can't
blow up a balloon."
I can't.
I have a slack jaw.
Okay, then give it to me,
and I will give it to someone
who can blow it.
That's unfair. I can use
the gift any way I want.
Dave...
It's mine. I appreciate
all these gifts.
You're welcome.
You're welcome.
You can just Venmo me.
-No.
-[snorts]
You can't blame me for
every raisin that you see.
-Have you guys seen
my laptop anywhere?
-We both eat raisins.
-I haven't seen it.
-I'm not blaming you
for every raisin,
-just these three.
-Yeah, and what, do they
have my name on it?
-[rap music playing]
-What are you doing?
DON:
What about that cashew?
Please get off of my laptop.
I was listening to the records
that you made this past year.
-[music shuts off]
-No, Dave, you can't keep me
in the dark anymore, man.
This is none of your business.
This is literally
my only business.
At least let me try
and help you.
You're not even
in the right folder.
Okay, well, where do I go?
"Penithpossibilities."
"Penithposs--"
-Possibilities.
-I get it.
There's no organization to this.
You're playing stuff at random.
Okay, what's-what's "Me Too"?

-Okay, do you know

-right now in the world?
-Yeah, what? I don't...
-I don't think it's a good idea.
-I just think that's, like,
the worst thing
you could ever have thought.
Yeah, I don't like it.
Okay, what about "Jenkum"?
-What is "Jenkum"?
-Ooh.
It's a sweet spot in my heart.
Jenkum is, uh,
when you take sh*t and
you put it in a plastic bag...
-Okay, that's enough.
-...and you let it ferment.
-And you huff it, and you...
-I don't need to hear it.
What about "Ally's Song"?
Is that a real thing?
Because if it is,
-we should put it out
immediately.
-No, that's in the wrong folder.
-It's "Ally's Song," and it's

-Yeah.
I didn't know you even
did stuff like that.
I-- It's not a Lil Dicky song.
It's-- I don't...
No, it's not a Lil Dicky song
because you don't mention
your penis the entire time.
This is great to be different
and to try new stuff.
I hear you,
and I'm happy you like it,
but it's definitely not, like,
the type of thing
-that's going on Penith.
-Well, it should.
It should be on the album,
-because you have
to show growth.
-No, M...
And I think that's huge.
And also,
it's nice to acknowledge that
you're still in love with Ally.
-I mean...
-Uh, no.
People love breakup songs.
That was the impetus of that.
So I experimented in the lane,
tapped into emotion--
it's not that...
-Mm.
-I love Ally as a friend, but...
there won't be a breakup song
with my wife.
-I'll tell you that much.
-Okay. Yeah, well...
Sounds like you've got this
whole life thing figured out.
"Jenkum" it is.

Well, that happened yesterday,
also.

call you back here.
-I don't understand.
-But, honey,
you need to stay on it.
-You're late for dinner.
-What, stay on the phone?
-Or...?
-I'm seconds late, Mom...
One second late for dinner
is still late for dinner.
You know I had a single request.
You always do this.

And then I just press yes or no.
And then a new,
gorgeous woman comes on.
-And... yeah.

And you press this and it shows
different pictures and...
Are they all in their underwear?
Certainly not wife material.
You haven't met anyone
you're interested in?
No, nobody swept me
off my feet yet.
David, you got to stop talking
about being swept off your feet.
That's easy for you to say, Mom.
You stumbled into perfection
in a man named Don.
Like, if I could meet
-a female Don,
then it'd be perfect.
-Wait, no...
-That's magic, that guy.
-Hang on.
We met, we were compatible
and the timing was right.
That's all I want!
What do you mean?
I want to be walking
down the street and, like,
see a woman walk
out of a Barnes & Noble.
David... Uncle Doug set us up
because I was fat
and your dad liked fat women,
-but it wasn't magical.
-What?
We became best friends
and he makes me laugh every day
and... that's,
that's all I need.
Well, that sounds magical,
what do you mean?
It's a rags-to-riches story--
you were overweight
and Don came in,
-and he dominated...
-Hey.
You want to watch
the Schitt's Creek?
-Don, do you see...
-Sure.
...that we're in the middle
of a conversation?
-Fine, I'll watch upstairs.
-CAROL: No, wait!
-No, do not watch it
without us, no.
-Don't watch it without us.
This is your cousin,
she wants to know
why you haven't texted her.
My phone is off.
-Well, turn your phone on and...
-DON: Okay.
-and text her back, Don!
-DON: All right.
-God!
-Hey.
-Oh, my God.
-Don't be so mean to Don.
Do you know how many times
I've asked him
not to turn his phone off?
He's completely incapable.
It's driving me nuts.
Well, that's
what you're here for.
-You got to take care of him.
-Yeah, no kidding.

Oh, no, you haven't,

very vividly, honestly.

No, you don't.

Well, I just wanted to be happy.
I never cared how I got there.

-It is.
-[chuckles]
-It's tan.
You're the only person
in the, in the world
-whose favorite color is tan.
-[laughs]
Well, then, I'm very special.
-Like you are.
-Well, I agree, you are special,
and I'll paint
my whole abdomen tan.
-[laughs]
-I'll do anything you want.
And I love you so much.
I love you, too, David.
Can I have a bite
of the chicken?
"Making mud pies, ?"
[both laughing]
[laughing]: Thank you.
You really do that so well.
DON:
Ha! Getting better.
CAROL:
[laughs] Come sit down.
ALLY:
Do you want a drink?
-Um...
-Oh, Accutane.
No, but I can have...
I can have one.
-You can have one.
-I haven't had one in so long.
-You can have one, right?
-Pour it on.
-It's Bachelornight. Come on.
-Yeah, let's go.
I'm actually very excited
to see what's going on
with Chloe's journey.
Because she's just
so mysterious,
I don't know what's going
on with her.
-Yeah.
-You know, she's such an enema.
An enema?
-Uh, enigma?
-Enigma.
-Yeah.
-Enigma.
I think an enema is, like,
a catheter for your ass.
-Enigma, enigma, enigma, enigma.
-[laughs]
-Enigma. God.
-I hate that that f*cking thing
makes me laugh every time,
-[chuckles]
-but it-it really does.
I am the Chris Farley
of my school.
I know.
-[Clears throat] Okay.
-Uh, hey.
Before this,
can I play you a song?
[chuckles]:
You play me a song?
-Yeah, I have this thing, um...
-Yeah.
Uh, like, I showed it
to Mike earlier,
-and he really liked it,
and I, uh...
-Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay. Here. Yep. There.
-Those are for the ears.
-Okay.
-Um..
-Fancy.
And, uh, there's a l--
like, a lot I want to say
about it to you...
-Okay.
-...that I will say
after you listen.
Okay.
-Ready?
-Yes.
-Okay.
-[clears throat]
[music plays faintly]
Ooh, I like the music.
♪ I f*cked the whole thing up♪
And there you are.
-♪ I did it all backwards♪
-Yep.
♪ Now I'm all alone
with my rap verse♪
♪ I could barely share
a password♪
♪ I said we'd dance,
I left you there♪
♪ Oh, I left me there, too♪
♪ You had my back,
I puked on you♪
♪ I chased my dream
so much it ran♪
♪ I can't make jokes
without your laugh, it seems♪
♪ I'd do anything to melt you♪
♪ I took you for granted♪
♪ I'll give you belly rubs,
too♪
♪ Did you like the rabbit?♪
♪ It's k*lling me to k*ll you♪
♪ And you were the magic, but
I f*cked the whole thing up♪
-[sniffles]
-♪ I did it all backwards♪
-[cries]
-♪ Not I'm all alone
with my rap verse♪
-♪ You were the best
at my worst♪
-[chuckles]
♪ And I miss you, Ally♪
♪ Hoot-hoot...♪
Dave, I...
I-I've just been thinking
a lot...
No, Dave, I'm...
I spent a lot of time
and a lot of work
to get over us.
And I've moved on.
And you're back in my life,
and we're friends.
And I don't want to lose that,
either, but...
I'm...
I can't.
No.
It's just a song.
This wasn't...
-Yeah.
-Oh, my God.
It's-- I should've, uh...
clarified.
-No, you said you...
-I know. Ah...
-...wanted to talk, and it's...
-Yeah.
I didn't-- I-- Sorry.
So, like, I obviously tapped
into, like, feelings
and, you know, of wanting
to be back with your ex.
-Right.
-Right. Sorry. Uh...
And I just know that
I haven't always taken
your feelings into account,
like, for our whole,
your know,
in terms of my music.
So I just wanted you
to hear that, and, um...
That's all.
'Cause I want to put it
on my album,
and I didn't want you
to be blindsided.
And I wanted your...
So, that's all that was.
-I'm sorry for the...
-No. I'm sorry.
-Okay. Sure.
-And thank you.
I will say,
if I'm being honest,
I'm not ready
for everyone to hear this song.
I'm sorry.
-I know you worked really hard
on it, and it is good.
-[chuckles]
Uh, yeah, okay.
Why?
There's a lot of personal stuff
in here, Dave.
-That's music. That's like--
-And there's a lot of
things about me.
And people know
that you and I dated.
-It's, like,
a privacy thing, and...
-People? Who?
What people? Like,
the friends that we--
-I don't understand.
-I don't need
your Instagram fans
-[groans]
-having more of a reason
to harass me also, and...
Instagram?
You're worried about Instagram?
I'm sorry, but it's so hard
for me to make music.
I finally have something
that I like,
and you're not allowing me
to do it because of Instagram?
-That's like...
-So...
you're taking my feelings
into account,
unless you don't have
my permission?
-I'm ju-- Like.
-And then you're gonna do
whatever.
If-if art couldn't tap into,
like, personal feelings
and, like, nuanced emotions
about, like, past experiences,
like, there wouldn't be art,
you know?
Don't you know what I'm saying?
I don't know. I mean,
we can talk about it more,
or not, it's just...
Whatever.
Let's just watch the show.
[TV playing faintly]
I'm just gonna go.
