I'm going to Men's Bible

- JOEL: Yes, actually, it is God.

That sounds awful.

Well, I haven't been,
so I don't know that.

But, any place without
women does sound terrifying.

SAM: Well, if you want,

you can come to the trade show with us.

It's gonna be wall-to-wall estrogen.

Ooh, I wish, but no. Brad
really wants me to go.

We're discussing grace and aging.

Oh, God! That sounds like a can't-miss.

[QUIET TRAFFIC NOISE]

You know, I found something...

something kind of
weird out at the house,

down in the basement.

What?

Love letters from Mom... to Dad.

- What?
- Yeah.

Like...

- from Mom?
- Yes.

Wha... I mean, what did
they say? Were they gross?

I-I'll skip the gross part 'cause
I don't think you can handle it.

- No, no, yeah, yeah, I don't wanna know.
- You know what?

They're actually kinda sweet.

They were like these notes, I guess,

that she left for him on
his workbench or something,

you know, telling him to
"Have a great day, handsome,"

or you know, "Save me a
kiss" or shit like that.

- What?
- I know! And...

And there were handmade birthday cards.

- I never got a handmade birthday card, did you?
- I mean...

- No!
- No!

- [LAUGHS]
- That is ins...

I just, like...

I just wish that I could've known

that that was there, that that existed.

That that existed from
her! You know? Like...

[SCOFFS] I just feel like

all I ever saw was the
crappy stuff, and it...

- it really made me not wanna follow in their footsteps.
- Well...

I mean, I always still wanted
to get married. I just...

I just thought that
I would do it better.

- [GIGGLES]
- Yeah, well...

Well, look at you now.

- Ew.
- I'm sorry.

- Just... Sorry.
- Never mind.

[SIGHS] Don't you have to pee?

- Yes, I have to pee, damn it!
- I knew you'd have to pee.

[WHIMSICAL MUSIC PLAYING]

[QUIET TRADE SHOW CHATTER]

You need your passes to get
in, Keynote starts at 3:00.

Okay, great. Ooh! I can't
wait to meet Cathleen.

- Ooh! Who's that?
- That's her right there.

- She's the Joanna Gaines of the Midwest.
- SAM: Oh.

- Cathleen with a C? Seriously?
- Yeah, seriously.

Look, karaoke!

- You girls like to sing?
- TRICIA: Well, I don't,

- but my sister is an amazing singer.
- No, I'm not.

- Yes, you are!
- I'm not.

- Yes, you are!
- Well, as I always say,

as long as you're having
fun, that's all that matters.

Yeah, exactly, right?
Alright, let's go do our...

map out our strategy. This
is gonna be so much fun!

[WHISPERS] Is Joanna Gaines coming?

- Oh, I don't think so.
- Aw.

- BRAD: This is exciting.
- JOEL: It is.

Why do you think they don't
have one for both men and women?

Mm, I guess it was just always this way,

I don't know.

Just... I don't know

if I'm gonna have anything
to talk about with them.

To the guys?

- Really?
- Really.

They're all so nice.

Well, Bruce can be a little
rough around the edges,

but you like Mark.

I like Mark's wife.

- Well, she's wonderful.
- JOEL: Mm.

She is wonderful.

- You're just so good at it.
- BRAD: What?

- JOEL: Hanging with the guys.
- Oh.

Well,

it's just muscle memory for me.

I had to do it for years and years

and years and years.

I'm a little older.

Things...

were a little bit different
back then. I don't know.

- I just, it's...
- Not that different.

I can never hide it. I...

I've tried to, and I just can't.

Well...

you're not the athlete that I am.

[BOTH LAUGH]

- Yeah, that's true.
- [BRAD LAUGHS]

There's nothing to be nervous about.

You'll see.

- Yeah.
- What's the worst that can happen?

[ENGINE ROARS, TIRES SQUEAL]

Excuse me! Absolutely not!

- Pull up!
- Oh, no, no, no, no.

Joel! Please pull up!

Joel. [STAMMERING]

- [WINDOW LOWERS]
- It's ridiculous!

Excuse me, sir!

Sir! That was very rude!

And dangerous!

S-Sorry.

Well...

[WINDOW SHUTS]

[GIGGLES] You showed him.

- It's not funny.
- JOEL: It is a little bit funny.

Just the part where you went...

[STAMMERING, LAUGHS]

- Oh, my God.
- [JOEL LAUGHING]

[BOTH LAUGHING]

TRICIA: I have so many ideas,

and I have so much stuff!

I hope I can get it all
in the car to get it home.

[GIGGLES]

Yes. Oh, well, it's great!

I can't wait to show you!

Alright. Thank you, Mitch.

Okay, you, too. Bye-bye.

You know what? He is a really nice man.

Oh, that's great.

You know, I'm just gonna close
my eyes for a quick 20 minutes...

No! Sam, you can't! We have
networking to do. A ton of it.

- SAM: Tricia?
- Hm?

Those are your people.
They terrify me. It's...

way too many teeth.

Sam, just get up, get
dressed. You're doing karaoke.

Now!

Oh, you really don't like me.

Well, I'm really happy
for you. That's awesome.

And I'm telling you, Sam,
this is how you do it.

You take life by the balls,
and you make shit happen.

- Here, hold this.
- SAM: You're singing?

Yes, I am.

- [LAUGHS]
- Thank you.

[LAUGHS] Well, this is unexpected.

- Does she normally sing karaoke?

"Let us stop it no more.

Hey, Joel. I-It's Brett.

How you doing?

Good. Uh, yeah, great. I...

I really enjoyed
the-the discussion today.

- It was good.
- Yeah.

- Well, it was good to see you.
- [CHAIRS SCRAPE]

I've seen you at church,

- and, uh...
- Really?

Y-Yeah.

And I haven't said hello to you...

because I'm ashamed...

about how I treated you in high school.

No, we were young.

That was such a long
time ago. It's-It's okay.

No. It's not okay.

- [EMOTIONAL] It's fine.
- It was wrong.

Anyway, I'll, uh...

I'll let you get back to it and...

U-Um... Yeah.

You hungry? I'm starving.

We could get some pizza!

Mushroom?

Mushroom and spinach?

I just need your wallet.

- TRICIA: No!

[TRICIA GROANING]

Trish, come on. I don't
know what's going on here,

- but I really gotta pee.
- Sam!

Well... Trish, I gotta pee.

[TRICIA PANTING]

What's going on?

It burns.

What burns?

Me! When I pee.

Oh...

- Okay.
- TRICIA: What?

What?!

Nothing, it's...

Sometime... I mean, everybody
burns a little bit when they pee.

- TRICIA: Oh, my God, this really burns though!
- Hm...

[TRICIA INHALES SHARPLY, SIGHS]

Have you, um...

[INHALES] I really don't think
it's anything to worry about.

Will you look at it?

- [WHISPERS] At y... At your vag*na?

- Tricia...
- I-I can't. I can't, please.

- [SAM SIGHS]
- Please, please just look at it. Just quick.

- [SIGHS]
- Sam! Look!

[TRICIA PANTING]

SAM: [SIGHS] Okay, just...

- I mean, it's probably just a UTI, you know?
- Right.

- That's not a UTI.
- Oh, my God! How do you know that?

- I know, Tricia.
- [MUFFLED SCREAM]

SAM: Can't believe how long it took me

to figure out how to
spell "venereal." [LAUGHS]

[SIGHS] Well,

look, according to the
internet, and I'm no doctor,

uh, looks like you have nothing
that a pill won't cure, so...

- That's good.
- [SIGHS] I mean, I can't tell Dr. Weis.

No, no, don't tell her.

Who do you think it was?

[SIGHS]

I'm not even sure.

Well, was it th-that little short one?

No, no. One kiss, that was it. He had...

- terrible breath.
- Right.

- The country club guy?
- No.

No, I mean, we only went to third base.

- SAM: Oh.
- Unless, I mean, can you get it? I don't...

No, no, come on. It's
not medically possible.

What happened here happened at home.

Was it the...

the guy with the braces?

Oh, my God...

SAM: "Oh, my God" what?

No, no, no.

No...

- Tricia.
- TRICIA: f*ck me.

- Wha...
- That as*h*le!

Tricia, who are you talking about?

- [TRICIA SNIFFLES]
- Who is it?

- TRICIA: f*cking Rick.
- No!

- It has to be him.
- Tricia, you did not sleep with Rick!

- I didn't... I didn't... I did not mean to!
- SAM: Didn't what?

- Oh my, you didn't...
- TRICIA: And I did not want to!

- H-H-He came over!
- Oh, and he just

threw your legs apart and stuck it in?

No, he was crying about missing me,

and I felt bad, and then...

Oh, my God! And what?

Well, then we f*cking got drunk,

and now I have a g*dd*mn
disease, that's what!

- Oh, Tricia... Oh...
- TRICIA: Oh, my God!

- Rick!
- I have a f*cking STD!

I have an STD!

That g*dd*mn m*therf*cker! I hate him!

Just waving that dirty

and now I have to deal with it?!

You do not mess with Tricia!

I swear to God,

the next time I see him,
I'm ripping it off his...

scrawny ass... m*therf*cking,

ass-eating p*ssy body,

You want me to drive?

Wow.

You want me to...

make you some chili?

I wanna see my friends more.

We can do that.

And I wanna load the dishwasher.

I wanna put pictures on the fridge.

[DEEP SIGH]

What?

What do you mean, "What?"

Well, you just made that sound.

- What is it?
- It's nothing.

TRICIA: It's not nothing.

Just tell me.

Mm, it's just a guy. You know?

We don't have to talk about it. [SIGHS]

There's a guy?

Who is it? Like...

- Somebody from the bar?
- Kind of.

- And?
- [SIGHS]

And nothing. I-It's nothing.

Nothing's happened, nothing's...

gonna happen, but...

[SIGHS] it doesn't matter 'cause I...

keep f*cking thinking about him.

Okay, well...

- what are you gonna do about it?
- [SCOFFS] Nothing.

- TRICIA: Why?
- I m...

- He's not thinking about me.
- TRICIA: You don't know that.

- I know that, Tricia.
- TRICIA: No.

You don't. You don't know that.

- Why don't you just ask him out?
- [SCOFFS] Are you high?

[SIGHS]

I mean, what is... what is
the worst that could happen?

[HEAVY SIGH]

Well, I could end up with an
unexplainable burning itch, for one.

- [LAUGHS]
- Okay. [SCOFFS] Too soon.

Sorry.

TRICIA: I mean, Sam...

there's really... there's
nothing to be scared of.

Nobody knows what
they're doing, I promise.

Nobody. You just...

just do it.

Oh, I wish I had your confidence.

[SNIFFLES]

I mean, not your disease,
but your confidence.

[WEAK LAUGH]

[SIGHS] It's stupid.

TRICIA: It's not stupid.

[SOFTLY] Yeah.

TRICIA: Well,

you know, it's actually
very simple, Sam.

You just have to manifest it.

[BOTH LAUGH]

You gotta shut the f*ck
up with that manifesting.
