[indistinct chatter]
So, uh, what are you saying?
You and Doug are dating then?
[girl]
We've only gone out
a few times, um...
Yeah?
He's--he's fun
to hang out with, and...
I mean, it sounds like
you're into him a little.
[sighs]
I don't know, um, I...
I wasn't--
I wasn't really sure what
you and me were, anyway.
It didn't seem as if
we were together, and...
I mean, did you think so?
Uh, I know, I know, I'm sorry.
I am glad that you still
call me, though,
and think of me as a friend.
What else is going on?
How's swimming?
Uh, it's good. Um...
Did you guys go and see
a Blazers game last Friday?
Yeah, yeah,
it was really cool.
Um, afterwards we went out
and rode on his go-karts.
His mom brought him
all these fast go-karts.
It was fantastic.
Have you ever ridden in one?
A couple, actually,
yeah, they're pretty cool.
I--I don't know, Jeremy,
I mean...
We're both so young, right?
Like...
Nothing lasts forever.
Everything dies and...
uh...
This is a strange conversation.
Yeah, I--no,
I know, I mean, um...
Theresa, can I talk
to you about something?
Yeah, um...
I have to go walk my dog.
Could we talk later on?
Sure, can we do it,
like, live?
Sure, um, text me when.
I have to go, though, really.
You have a good day, though.
f*cking yeah,
I want to be your friend.
[man] Hey, butt munch
You off the phone?
Hey, do you, uh...
you want to order out?
Mom and Dad are eating Chinese.
[Jeremy]
Uh, yeah, I'll be down later.
Okay.
b*tch!
f*cking shithead!
With your next deep breath,
I want you to
visualize inhaling the sunbeam.
Open up your chest cavity,
then push the beam down
to the ba*ls of your feet.
Feel the power in stillness,
the energy in doing nothing.
Imagine your body
on a straight line.
And that's how
you maintain speed.
If your leg falls,
then your back
collects water,
and that will slow you down.
Feel the energy
flowing through your body.
Relax.
Breathe.
Relax.
Breathe.
Ready? Go!
Ready, go!
Ready, go!
Fifty one.
Fifty two.
Fifty three.
Fifty four.
Fifty five
Fifty six.
[man]
Yeah, I mean, if--
if it ends up happening like
that then we just need to go
in very, very minimally.
Exactly. Yup.
Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah, sort of like
we did there.
Yeah, hold on just a sec.
Um, like 10...
do you think?
Uh-huh. Sorry.
Yeah, no, we're at the thing.
Oh, it's nice actually.
It's like a garden. Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right. Right. Yeah.
No, we should go...
[voice fades out]
That was nice.
It's a good rec.
Seemed to chill you out.
It's better than going for food.
You should have tried it.
Yeah, yeah, I know.
I forgot to dedicate
a block for it
in my brain, you know?
Next time,
dedicate like a 20-minute block.
I bet that's how long it takes
to reach relaxation with it.
-Yeah.
-What do you think?
You think it's like 20?
I don't know. I wasn't counting.
Yeah, but I mean,
that's a good estimation, yeah?
Yeah, sure.
What?
You mad?
No, I'm just tired.
-[horn honking]
-[crying]
God, f*cking hell.
[groans]
[taps]
Hey, you okay?
[car chimes]
You okay?
Yeah. I'm so sorry.
Yeah, I'm totally fine.
[chuckles]
[car chimes]
[car door shuts]
[chorus vocalizing]
When I bought this--
this one,
it first came out,
it was not that color.
[chuckles]
I would have kept it, I think.
Yeah, they reissued
for you to remember it.
Maybe they were like that.
I mean, some of these colors
are crazy.
Like this.
[chuckles]
I don't remember.
Yeah, yeah.
For sure, they do colored
vinyl a lot more nowadays.
Gives it some pizzazz.
Plus, it's usually
180-gram vinyl.
What does that mean?
Uh, it's thicker
and more durable.
Does it sound better?
Not necessarily.
It's more about being durable.
-Oh.
-Um...
but I would still,
you know, probably prefer
the original pressing,
so you can get a crappy
pressing no matter what.
Uh... UK and German pressings
are usually the best.
Wow. Cool.
You are this big record
collector, it sounds like.
Just like everybody
else here is.
-Yeah.
-I used to be kind of.
What's brought back all this,
do you think?
Um, I don't know.
Maybe they're fun to touch.
I mean, it feels good
to touch what you play.
And, uh, maybe it's enjoyed
more because of the ritual.
Oh, yeah.
Instead of clicking.
Yeah, something about setting
it up and all by yourself.
Totally.
[chuckles]
Do you like older music?
-Yeah.
-You do?
-Yeah. Sure.
-Me, too.
I used to really be into
all that stuff from the '60s.
Especially if it was a French
or an Italian singer.
Yeah, like Bacharach
sounding stuff.
Yeah, totally.
[laughs] Yeah.
I mean, but really,
anything with--
there was like that twisting
beat that I loved.
And what was that?
That organ type of
sound that everybody uses?
The French and Italian lyrics
just add something to it.
Yeah, you can find
that stuff if you dig.
But reissues can be expensive.
Do you work here?
No, I'm just a shopper.
Oh, of course.
Are you in a band?
No, I'd rather play
a bunch of bands.
Oh.
How about you?
Are you in a band?
Yeah.
Sure, I'm the drummer.
[laughs]
I'm just kidding.
No, I am a realtor.
Oh, so you, uh--
you sell houses?
I sell mainly
these apartments downtown.
Hmm.
[mutters]
I like that shirt.
It's like so retro, kind of.
No? Okay.
Thanks.
Thanks for wearing it.
Whatever.
I'm just kidding.
I need to go, I think.
Yep, I should go.
Um... but it would be great
to talk, you know,
record shop chop with you again.
See, I think I really want to
get back into collecting these.
-Nice, yeah.
-Yeah.
-I just--
-It's awesome.
I want to be curious
about things again, you know?
And I just think
it's really neat how
these have come back.
Totally.
Is it weird
if we exchange numbers?
-No, not at all.
-Are you sure?
Yeah, for sure.
[laughs] Okay.
I mean, all right, well,
I'll just get your phone number
and then I'll text.
I can just text you mine.
Um, can we--
uh, can we just do
pen and paper?
Oh, my God.
You do not have to give me
your phone number. It's like--
No, no, it's cool.
I'm sorry if that--
I'm just--I'm just--
I'm just trying to do that now.
You're trying--
you're trying to like write down
phone numbers or just write
down things in general?
-Both.
-Okay.
Is this how you keep track
of all your phone numbers
of your friends and stuff?
Well, I mean, not exactly.
I mean, I transfer them
to my contacts list eventually.
-Ah.
-But--but I think I want to
make a conscious effort
to start actually
writing things down.
Okay.
And we can swap.
[laughs]
I--
-You okay?
-Yeah.
I'm just not used
to writing things down.
No, it's--it's cool.
Oh, Beth.
Yeah, oh, yeah.
What is your name?
I'm Beth.
-Uh, cool.
-You can write yours.
-What is your name?
-I can write my name.
-Okay, good.
That's a nice start.
-I learned that.
You learned.
Uh--uh, there you go.
Jeremy.
-Yes.
-Cool. I like your drawing.
It's cute.
-Thanks.
-All right, Jeremy.
-It's just a weird--
-Nice to meet you.
-Nice to meet you.
-Okay, thank you.
Um, I...
sure we'll talk
some other time.
Thanks. Bye.
-Yeah, totally. Record stuff.
-Thanks again. See you guys.
-Yeah, bye.
-Bye.
[traffic noise]
[Beth]
You hit me.
You took me down.
It was wind in my feathers.
And now there's blood
on the ground.
Yeah, you hit me.
You took me down.
I remember when you told
me you loved me long ago.
I was a good omen
for you to see.
But you steal
from your children,
and you stole me from the sky,
and you left me.
-[music stops]
-[phone ringing]
Hello.
No, this is not.
Yes, he is.
May I ask who's calling, please?
There's a Beth
on the phone for you.
She'd like you to eat her p*ssy.
Uh, hello.
Hey, this is Beth, um,
from the record store.
How are you?
Uh, good.
Um, it's okay that I called?
Who was that?
Who answered your phone?
Was that your brother?
Yeah, that was
my brother, John.
[John]
Who's got a fat c*ck.
[Beth laughs]
Yeah, I bet he does.
Yeah, no, no.
Just a lot of foreskin.
Oh, that's really gross.
Yeah, tell him.
I got some good stuff
on the vinyl.
Oh, nice.
What stuff?
Cream.
Do you know Cream?
And YAZZ
Yeah, yeah. I--
and YAZZ, nice.
Yeah.
You should come over.
We could have like a little
record listening party.
Uh, sure.
You don't sound that thrilled.
Uh... are--
are you married?
I am.
[laughs]
You're really cute, but I am
not looking to have an affair.
[laughs]
Okay.
I'm also in high school.
Really?
How is that going?
Uh, it's--
yeah, it's all right.
I guess--I mean,
it has its--it has its
peaks and valleys.
Um, uh,
how about--how about you?
Are you in high school?
I just want to be friendly.
And, um, you know,
if my marital status, my age...
seems to matter to you.
I'm really sorry, but
yours don't bother me.
So do you want
to come over or not?
Yeah, all right. I'll, uh--
and I'll--
um, I'll see you there.
Then I'll see you... here.
[laughs]
I'll text you my address.
Okay, cool. Bye
[Beth]
Our house is like totally
a work in progress,
but I put
the record player here.
So check it out.
[laughs]
Yeah.
Yeah, nice. Looks good.
Thanks, yeah.
Good find.
What flag is that?
Chicago.
Oh, cool.
So are you guys from there?
Yeah, nearby.
We moved here
a couple of years ago.
Yeah. [chuckles]
Cool.
Did you just--
did you just buy these?
Oh, um, yeah.
But I used to have
these before, actually.
Yeah. [chuckles] Yeah.
-Oh.
-Let's put a record on.
-Yeah.
-Okay. Me, I was thinking...
[fake accent]
um, this one.
This one.
[laughs]
Okay.
Oh, sorry.
-Jeez.
-It's okay.
Good. Okay.
[turns music up]
So...
[man]
How old Jack Nicholson is.
[man 2]
How old is Jack Nicholson?
-He's old.
-We should take bets.
-Um...
-You have something
to write this down?
Nobody--nobody's on
their phone right now.
-No.
-Nobody's on their phone.
Hands above the table.
-All right. Whoo!
-Hands above the table.
-Good call.
-Gail, go.
-What?
-What do you think, Gail?
-What's your guess?
-Um, 67.
-That's so f*cking wrong,
but fine.
-What?
-What? Why?
-Yeah, that's so f*cking
off the mark.
-He was 67 like 20 years ago.
-No way.
He's not that old!
Me? I look like Jack Nicholson?
[laughs]
Yeah. Yeah, exactly.
I get that a lot.
Dude. Um...
-[man] What happened?
-[Gail] Um...
What is this?
What is this, like your...
-Something.
Number... less than 10.
-Twelve?
Number less than 10.
Okay, well, that's good.
At least it's less than 10.
I'm proud of myself.
What is that for you?
-Anybody else?
-Four? Three?
-Nah, I'm still
catching up with you.
-You're good?
All right, be back.
You sure?
-Food? Good? All right.
-No, I'm good.
Help me out, man.
What did I have?
What was this?
-Um, grape juice.
-It was...
No. f*ck you.
-Hey.
-f*cking f*ck you.
What? You can't help me
out with a drink?
What did you tell me to order?
What did he tell me to order?
I didn't tell you
to order anything.
Where did you--
you f*cking-- it was good.
It had the citrus.
But come on, man.
Grape juice?
Are you serious?
-What, I can't be here?
-I didn't even--
What, I can't be here because
I don't have the hair?
Because I don't have the shirt
that's like half down.
Come on, man.
Let me just--can I
just get this for you?
Do us all a favor.
I'm sure this guy
is very, very thrilled that
I'm actually covering your--
Calm down.
You're done.
-I'm sorry. I apologize.
-You're done. Let's go.
-Sorry, Portland.
-Let's go.
You've done--
you've done enough.
Lets go.
Keep my opinions to myself.
I'll adopt your opinions.
Thank you. Great place.
Love it. Love it.
I'll be back.
[traffic noise]
[exhales]
Do you think
that you love me still?
Still?
What?
What's, uh--
what's wrong?
You pissed about Saturday?
No.
Okay.
It has nothing to do with that.
[laughs]
Come on.
What? Can't you just
answer the question?
Yeah, I sure can.
-I do.
-Oh.
That's a knee jerk reaction.
[laughs]
Are you--are you trying
to pick a fight or what?
That's a loaded question
for the road when I'm driving.
I think
it's a great time to ask you.
You're not expecting it.
Do you think you still do?
Yes. Dammit, yes.
What, do you think I don't?
I don't know.
People who are married,
they fall in and out of love
all the time with each other.
Probably daily.
I think it would be...
totally normal for someone just
to catch one of those moments
when the other person's
out of it.
Yeah, I guess if--
if you believe that, sure.
-You don't?
-No.
No, I don't.
[Beth]
I think I'm disappearing.
I think I'm disappearing.
Wake up.
Yeah, this is alright.
-[laughs]
-Do you--do you
write a lot?
No, I used to.
It's just something
I want to get back into.
Do you?
Uh, sometimes.
I guess I can show you
some stuff, yeah.
-You guess?
-It's weird to talk about.
Why is it so weird?
[stammers]
It's not--
it's something you don't want
to share with everybody.
It's like I'm bragging
and interesting or something.
Well, I asked you, didn't I?
[chorus vocalizing]
[machinery humming]
[laughing]
[people chatting]
Damn!
Fiber in this is good.
Check it out.
Is it on sale? You want two?
Uh, nah, that's okay.
We can substitute a box
for yogurts or something.
[laughs]
Whatever. It's fine.
Get it. It's on sale.
You eat cereal like it's M&M's.
-I know. I know.
-I know. I know.
I need to get some broccoli
and celery, homes.
-I'll be right back.
-[laughs] Okay.
[rhythmic clapping]
[clapping continues]
[no audible dialog]
Hey.
You did great.
You swam super fast.
-[laughs] I am so sorry.
-[whistle blowing]
I didn't mean to freak you out
in front of your parents
Oh, no, it's--it's--I'm good.
-It's okay. I'm glad you came.
-Okay, good.
-I swam faster because of it.
-[whistle blows]
[laughs]
I know.
Uh, okay, I know you need
to go back to your parents.
So you can just text me.
-Yeah.
-Yeah.
Or you can call me.
Or you can send me a letter
in post office or whatever
if you want.
[laughs]
I'm going to go.
-Okay. Okay, good.
-It was great to see you.
-Okay. All right, bye.
-Great to see you too. Bye.
[Steve] Question.
[Beth] Okay.
[Steve]
You still think about
having kids?
That's a question, all right.
What, you don't want to answer?
I didn't say that.
I don't know.
-Yeah, I don't know.
-Really?
Yeah, really.
And I mean with me, of course.
I figured you did.
I just--I don't know.
I haven't been thinking
about it lately.
But whether
or not I still love you
is on your mind
constantly, right?
Steven, what's up?
What's up with you?
Nothing. I don't know.
So the other night, you didn't
go to any book reading.
[scoffs]
Yeah, I did.
Oh, my God,
are you following me?
No, I don't need
to see the environment
or the physical
manifestations
of what your deal is.
It's in your eyes.
What?
Are you seriously
going to play like that?
-What are you saying?
-Come on, Beth.
You know what I'm saying.
No. [scoffs]
No, I mean, just because
we're having issues
doesn't mean that I'm doing
whatever is in my eyes.
I mean, what about you?
What about you?
No, okay?
Don't do that.
Do not switch it, all right?
-We're talking about you first.
-Yeah.
-[chuckles]
-What?
-I don't know.
-Look at that.
-I don't really care anymore.
-Did you see that?
-What?
-Look at what just happened.
-What happened?
-I asked you a question,
and you switched the scenario
over to me.
Right. Yeah.
We have to talk about me right
now because you say so, huh?
While you're just doing
that with your cereal?
I just--I really don't want
to be around you right now.
All right, fine.
That's totally fine.
-You're going
to act like sour grapes.
-Yeah.
Go right the f*ck ahead
and just keep f*cking around
on our lives together
while I'm making contributions
and sacrifices.
-Oh, my God.
-I'm just trying
to figure this out.
I don't want
this conversation to be
happening right now.
I'm going to go.
Okay, going to see your--
your man?
No. No, I'm going
to show a loft.
-Show a loft, huh?
-Yeah.
Who the f*ck
is buying a loft right now?
Steven!
Can you grow up?
[Beth] You hit me.
You took me down.
You concrete wizards.
You city lizards.
Destroyers of everything wise.
You don't love me.
You don't love me.
You don't love me anymore.
Okay, she's adorable.
Oh, my God.
-[groans]
-They're really cute.
[car door beeping]
-Good afternoon!
-Hey, good afternoon.
[cars passing]
f*ck!
[playing]
[laughs]
-Looks good on you.
-Thank you.
-Yeah.
-Yeah. I feel very supported.
Wonder what's up with
the Pharaoh Islands?
Do you know
anything about them?
They're dark and cold.
Oh, it doesn't sound that fun.
Okay. Yeah.
-Like it?
-Yeah.
Yeah.
That's it.
He's got like that dazed--
dazed thing going on.
-That's good.
-[muttering]
[laughs]
When did you--
when did you come here?
Um, like three years?
-Oh, like--
-Yeah, like three years ago,
I think.
Like everybody else.
Ooh, you're from Portland.
I really like the--
"you concrete wizards,
you city lizards."
-[laughs]
-"The stories of everything
wise."
I just love--
I like--
I really like that image.
Like a concrete wizard.
I mean, not a wizard
made of concrete,
but like a city wizard.
Yeah.
-It's really cool.
-Thanks.
Yeah, it's--
but it's also really--
it's like-
it's--yeah, it's--
it's funny, but it's--
I think it feels like--
it feels like insightful.
Like it encapsulates something.
I don't know, you know?
It's like technology
or something.
-[both chuckle]
-Yeah. Yeah.
But--yeah.
No, it's--
-This is good. This is good.
-[laughs] Really?
Yeah, how long have you been--
how long have you been
doing stuff like this?
I don't know.
Since I was 12, probably.
Wow.
Yeah. I'm glad you like that.
You really like it?
No, it's sh*t.
-Oh, f*ck you! Ah!
-[laughs]
[Jeremy]
No, that's not--
I don't think primal
is her vibe.
Oh, no,
she's more of like a--
-Yeah, I mean--
-Yeah, you're not--
-No, she's like a--
-That's not it.
She's like a--like an art--
like a creative.
Have you guys--
have you done it yet?
Oh, sh*t.
Oh, he's cashed.
-Yeah, I mean, he must.
-He's cashed it.
-You don't need
to pick apart my f*cking...
-What's this? What's this?
-There's nothing there.
-[laughing]
Hey, guys.
-Hey.
-Hey.
You guys, you mind if I talk
to my man real quick?
Uh...
-Yeah, sure.
-Just real quick, homie.
-Go get him, homeboy.
-Yeah, sure, me?
Uh, what's it about?
Hey, um...
so you're--
you're having sex with my wife.
[boys chatting]
[laughs] What?
Did I stutter, man?
You f*cked my wife.
-Whoa, hey, dude, what?
-What?
I'm just going to--
I'm just going to stand here
and keep talking if you want.
-Uh, whoa.
-You... fu--
Okay, okay, okay.
Just can I--
can you give me a second
so I can talk to my friends?
Okay.
-Are you okay?
-Yeah, I'm okay.
I'm just going to be--
I've got to go and, like--
I have to have a real talk
with this dude for a second.
-Okay.
-Cool.
Yeah, it's good.
Let's walk.
-So, how you been?
-Um...
-I'm good. Look, I don't know--
-All right, all right.
Shut up. Shut up.
Allow me to introduce myself.
I'm Steve Edwards. Okay?
-Um, you...
-Yeah, hey.
-You, um...
-What? What are you--
-I'm sorry, what are you--
-Walk, walk, walk, walk, walk.
-You f*cked Elizabeth, man.
-Jesus.
My f*cking wife.
Edwards, I gave her
that last name, dude.
Did you f*cking f*ck her
in my f*cking house?
In my bed?
-Look, I don't know what--
-Walk. What's your name, buddy?
-Don't f*cking lie to me.
-Have you been following me?
Oh, my God, shut the f*cking
f*ck up, man,
before I beat the sh*t
out of you right now, huh?
What, you're 17,
you can't do sh*t?
What? Shut the f*ck up!
Your friends pull out
gats on me, huh?
I can punch you in
the throat, buddy, say you're
the aggressor towards me.
[Jeremy] Whoa!
[rhythmic clapping]
What's the deal?
Remember that girl
I told you about?
Yeah, his daughter?
His wife.
What?
You're--[laughs]
you're f*cking
that dude's wife?
No, you're not.
No, you're not.
No, you--
You were like f*cking
married women and sh*t
and you didn't want--
you were like--you--
God damn, dude.
-You're serious?
-I mean, I like her.
I like her too, you know.
It's not--
Yeah, sure. Yeah, yeah.
You're like f*cking
eloping and sh*t next week.
Shut up, you know what I mean.
Come on, you don't have
to keep treating it
like it's got
to be the one, son.
No, I'm not treating it
like it's the one.
Yes, you are.
Enjoy it, man.
Come on.
You think she isn't?
You think this married woman
thinks that you're the one?
Can you stop?
You're not helping.
[scoffs]
-Okay.
-Okay. Yeah, my fault.
Thanks.
So...
so what, you want to--
you want to jump him?
No, I didn't--
-You want to jump him?
-No, I didn't--
-God, no, like,
I just, you know--
-Then what?
I just wanted you
to know in case--
so in case something happens.
Oh, yeah, no, dude, you're--
you know I have your back.
That's--we're cool.
-We're cool.
-Okay.
[woman]
I need to give Stephen
a bath, Jamie.
Mom, give me five minutes.
Sorry about that.
[rhythmic clapping]
[Jeremy's mom]
Dinner's at six.
[clapping continues]
f*ck.
What's going on, ladies man?
Dude, you better go.
Or what?
-What do you want?
-Ooh.
I think I want to meet your mom.
[laughs]
Okay, look, you're not
coming into my house.
Tell you what, boss.
You don't come with me
right now,
I'm gonna go chat up moms
and dads, let them know
what's been happening.
You--you think
they'll believe you?
They don't know who you are.
Okay, fine.
I'll also get the cops.
-So, what are they going to do?
-Oh, I don't know.
Along with throwing
my wife's a*s in jail,
there's probably
going to be a trial.
You 18?
Yeah, I've already
contacted my attorney.
Hey, clear your head.
You think
I'm just going to let this lie?
Be smart. Let's talk.
Okay, look, um, hold on.
I've got to take a minute.
I'm going to--
I'm going to run back in.
I need to say I'm going out,
-and I'll be right back.
-Okay. Yeah.
You don't come back out
in two minutes, man.
I'm on your stoop
ringing the bell.
And please, please,
bring someone else out.
Please.
[rhythmic clapping]
-Hey, Jeremy.
-What's up, boy?
What's up, dickbag?
Want to play?
-Hey.
-I'm going to take a sec.
All right, you ready?
Who was--who was
Lauren Bacall's first husband?
Oh, Humphrey Bogart.
-Ding, ding, ding.
-Who's Lauren Bacall?
That's right.
Here's looking at you, kid
[John]
I know who that is.
[mother]
No, Shelley Fabares. Fabares?
-[mother laughs]
-Is that right?
Shelley Fabraya?
I don't even know--
Shelley Fabray?
I don't think she sang either.
All right, who knew?
-Who knew?
-Sha-Na-Na.
Here we go.
Roll the dice.
-Did you get it? Roll it.
-Yeah, it's your turn, Dad
[Jeremy's mom]
Oh, this is easy.
I just consulted
with my brother,
and I'd like to talk
to my lawyer first
before we take things
any further.
You f*cking kidding me, man?
You didn't do d*ck in there.
He's known about--
No, no, f*ck.
What the f*ck?
[doorbell rings]
Hi, ma'am.
Hi.
My name is Steve Ketchner.
Um, well, you know,
I don't really know
how to say this.
I know Jeremy's a little
in shock right here,
but your, um--
your son...
-is--he's--he's--he's--
-Mom, I--
your son
is a great young man.
-He just saved my wife's life.
-What?
What--wait, what are you
talking about?
What are you talking about?
So, um, he pushed her
out of the way
of an oncoming car in traffic
about 20 minutes ago.
She was on her phone texting,
which I'm sure she'll
think twice about now,
and your son,
thank God, he screamed,
and he literally--he grabbed
her and he saved her.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God.
Jeremy, are you all right?
I--yeah, I'm--yeah.
Yeah, I'm great.
Jesus.
Is she all right?
Is everything okay?
She's fine.
You know, she's very shaken,
but she's okay.
-She's at home. She's resting.
-Oh, my God.
Yes, Mrs.?
-Um, uh, Frey.
-Oh, um--
Geraldine Frey.
But, um,
I insisted on coming by
to thank you personally
for raising such a great kid.
I think that his own bravery
kind of weirded him out a bit,
but it was just so important
for me to come by
and express it to you.
Beth wanted
to be here very badly,
-but she's still pretty jittery.
-Oh, yeah.
God almighty.
Wow.
Uh...
Okay. Um...
I don't really know
what to do here.
Oh, yeah.
God, I'm out of my head, too.
Would you like to come in
for dinner or something?
She's--I mean,
she needs to--
-Maybe... another time.
-Okay.
-Yeah.
But thank you very much.
-Sure.
Okay.
Uh, are you sure
you're okay, Jeremy?
-Yeah, yeah, yeah, totally fine.
-Okay.
Okay, well, I'm gonna
get going, all right?
But it was very nice
to meet you, Geraldine.
Uh, nice meeting you,
too, um, Steve, right?
-Yes.
-Yeah. Um...
sure there's nothing
we can do for you?
God, you know,
I think that Jeremy here
has done more than enough.
Um, if anything, I should
do something for you guys.
-Oh, no.
-Actually, can I get
your number?
I know that Beth
is probably gonna want
to call to thank you
or to thank Jeremy here.
-Um, sure.
-Uh...
Uh, of course.
You can have mine.
-858-63--
-Oh, no, hey, Mom.
No, no, no, no, no, no.
I'll just give them mine.
Beth, she'll want to call me.
-Oh.
-I assume.
Are you sure?
Is that okay?
-Is that okay with you?
-Yeah, that's fine.
Um, you're gonna write it down?
Don't write it down.
Oh, yeah,
don't write it, Jeremy.
It'll get lost.
Okay.
-Call me.
-Yeah, I'm on it.
I'm sorry if I seem--
I'm still really
just kind of reeling.
Yeah, everything's okay,
though, right?
Everything's fine, amazingly.
Cool, so, 312...
778-6854.
-Great.
-I'm out of my head.
-Yeah.
-Okay.
Can you call me?
Can you call me to make sure?
All right.
Great.
Thank you again, sir.
Thanks, Jeremy.
Thank you.
She's, um--
she's really grateful.
That was very brave, Jeremy.
Very brave.
Yes, it was.
-Um, I'll see
you folks later, okay?
-Okay.
You've got a great,
lovely family.
Thank you.
Thank you, Steve.
Bye-bye.
[phone dings]
[phone dings]
[phone dings]
-I'm not getting in your car.
-Relax, man.
I'm not gonna stab you
or touch you funny.
Look, let's just go down
to the park nearby.
I will park and go
right the f*ck back
to your stoop if you don't
get in the car right now.
-Right f*cking now.
-Why?
Okay, okay, come on, man.
Come on. Where are we gonna go?
-I don't want to see Beth.
-What, please, man?
You think I want
to see that b*tch?
You think I want you two
to have your thing right
there in front of me?
Okay, not so loud, okay?
You're coming, right?
Come on, man.
I've done enough f*cking
with you today.
I'm not gonna do any more.
You can have the window open.
Okay.
You--but you're not--
you're not going anywhere
near my house, okay?
I don't want my family involved.
So what do you do, man?
What do you--
what do you mean,
what do I do?
I'm in high school.
Yeah, well, you don't
just go to high school.
You play music and sh*t?
What do you do?
I'm a DJ.
You, uh--you play sports?
You run track?
-You look like a track guy.
-I--I swim.
Swimmer.
sh*t, man.
It's a lot of work.
If you don't work, you'll drown.
Yeah.
It's apparent that, um,
you both hit it off
because of a connection
or a combination
of common interests
thereof, yeah?
-What?
-Right.
So allow me
the curiosity of finding out
just who it is
that my wife is enjoying
her company with these days.
m*therf*cker.
[woman]
Oh, hey, Jeremy.
-Hey, what's up?
-[Steve] Hey.
-How's it going?
-Hey, how you guys doing?
Hey, you're, uh--
your neighbor, Jeremy Frey,
who's in high school
of the Freys up on 17th Street,
is having sex with my wife.
Jeremy Frey is f*cking
Elizabeth Edwards!
She's 35 years old!
She's my wife!
Oh, hey, hey.
[chuckles]
Hey, stop.
Coming in?
[Jeremy]
f*ck you.
Cool.
[bicycle bell rings]
Ah, sh*t!
[Steve] Hey, Frey.
What do you, uh--
what do you think
attracted Beth to you?
I--I have no idea.
You got a fat c*ck?
Hey, don't look at me, man.
Hit the baseball.
You got a magic p*nis?
Oh, my God.
You're all torso.
Use your hips, man.
You know where
your center of gravity is?
And loosen up
on the baseball bat.
-Jesus Christ.
-f*ck!
Hey, don't you
f*cking leave
that batter's box, boyo,
or I'm at your front door.
-What do you want?
-I want you to hit the baseball.
They're whizzing by.
Good man.
There it is.
There you go. Man!
All right.
I'm gonna give you
three more weeks.
What?
Three more weeks with Beth.
And then that's it.
-And whenever you two go out--
-Oh, no. I'm not gonna
see her anymore.
Whenever you two go out.
You're gonna let me know.
All right?
Dude, you're out of your mind.
You are gonna
let me know when,
and you are gonna
let me know where.
Okay?
Whenever she goes
over to your house,
you're gonna give me a call.
All right?
And you cannot come
over to our place anymore.
That is out.
You understand?
Dude, did you not hear me?
I'm done with her.
I'm not gonna see her anymore.
Sure, m*therf*cker.
But if you do happen
to pursue the relationship,
these rules apply.
And don't tell Beth, all right?
She finds out,
I will f*ck you up
and still ring your doorbell.
I'll get stupid real fast,
even if your
friends do have Gats
Look, just stay out
of my neighborhood, okay?
Stay the f*ck away from me.
[indistinct chatter]
I'm not caught up.
I'm not caught up.
[chatter continues]
Hey! Jeremy.
-Holly, hey.
-What's up?
Uh, not much.
I'm just taking a break.
You getting bored?
Cheers.
Oh, so you...
[phone dings]
Hi, this is Teresa.
You can leave me a message
or just text me.
Thanks.
[phone dings]
[ringing]
Hey, I was gonna call you.
Hello, how are you?
Uh, good.
What have you been up to
lately besides avoiding me?
I'm just kidding.
I--I haven't
been avoiding you.
I--no, I've--
I'm sorry-- I'm sorry.
I've got like fina--
I've got a couple finals
coming up and like...
a bunch of big--
like a few big meets
and practice has been
really intense,
so I'm, uh--yeah,
I'm sorry I haven't called.
Is that all?
Yeah.
Are you mad at me?
No.
Okay.
Why would I be mad?
I don't know.
I give up. Why would you?
Do you want
to hang out tomorrow?
Maybe.
I--
What time tomorrow?
[phone dings]
[TV playing]
Jeremy.
Hey, Jeremy.
Yeah?
What's up, buddy?
-So, uh...
-Okay, so where?
What time?
Probably like sometime
in the afternoon.
-So if that's...
-Okay, stop, stop.
What time specifically?
In the afternoon.
One.
-How long?
-Um...
I--I don't know,
like an hour?
No, like a couple hours,
a couple hours.
All right, well, uh,
let's, uh, try to have
a timetable
for me next time, okay?
Yeah, okay, sure.
Hey, and don't text me, man.
Come on. Not when
it's something like this.
Something else?
You're not gonna
come over, are you?
Are you kidding me, man?
Come on.
[Jeremy] I've smoked before
but like in social situations.
I'm not a smoker.
That's cool.
What?
Do I look funny?
I think we should go out
dancing somewhere.
I think we should
get dressed up.
-What do you think?
-They have, um--
they have like
this soul mod night.
At this club downtown.
Um, I've never went,
but I bet it's awesome.
And you're cool with it?
Yeah, well,
like '60s stuff, you know?
Um, I mean,
it's over 21 but--
uh, you'll, yeah,
'60s stuff, you'll like it.
Like they--look.
Where is that?
They--they--
you know, people--
like some people show up
in like Vespa scooters...
and, you know, dressed all up
like from the era
and then the DJ
plays all vinyl.
-Oh, that's cool.
-All vinyl of that,
you know,
that kind of music.
Where is that?
Uh, it's like
a little west of downtown.
Oh, okay.
This looks really fun.
I think we should go.
Well, I need a fake--
I need a fake.
Oh, can't you just use
your brothers?
No.
What, he won't let
you use his?
No, and I--
I don't--
I don't look
that much like him.
Oh.
I bet we can figure it out.
-Hey.
-Hey.
Guess the party's over here.
[scoffs]
I know that song.
What's that from?
Yeah.
You look, uh, great.
Where you, uh--
where you off to?
Huh?
I'm gonna turn that down, okay?
[music volume lowers]
I said that you
look really nice.
-Thank you.
-Yeah.
Where you going?
I'm going dancing
with Val and Megan.
You can call Val
if you want to.
Oh, come on.
-I don't want to fight.
-Yeah.
Can I get a kiss?
Just--just a kiss. Okay?
First base.
[laughs]
-Have a good time, okay?
-I will.
[phone ringing]
-Uh, hey.
-Hey, man. It's Steve.
The f*cking f*ck?
Were you gonna tell
me you were going out?
Uh, yes.
I was going to call you.
-Yeah? You sure?
-Yeah.
So?
What are you two
doing tonight?
Uh, we're going dancing.
Dancing?
Really? Where?
Uh, like a club.
The Tonic Lounge.
No sh*t?
Yeah, okay, it's a mod night.
It's like, uh--
it's a club downtown.
Yeah, I f*cking
know what the Tonic Lounge
is, all right?
A what themed night?
And, uh, it's--
it's not downtown, okay?
Mod, like, you know,
like '60s themed night?
Mod?
Beth, want to do that?
Uh, yeah.
I mean, we both wanted to.
Yeah, right, but who
specifically came up
with the distinct
suggestion
of the mod-themed night?
You or her?
Uh, okay, so she wanted
to go dancing,
and I suggested the mod night
and we both agreed to it.
Really?
So--so she was the one
who wanted to dance?
Uh, yeah,
isn't that what I said?
Uh, so what time does it start?
When are you--
when are you guys leaving?
Uh, we'll be there
for like two hours, maybe.
Yeah, well, uh,
she's home by midnight.
-Yeah, okay, sure.
-Not a minute after, Frey.
[crickets chirping]
[clatters]
[laughs]
[laughs]
You look fantastic.
[laughs]
Yeah, well, look at you.
I know, right?
I didn't have time
to, you know,
curl my hair
with Coke cans and stuff.
Yeah, is that a wig?
Oh, my God, yeah.
I tried on so many.
[laughs]
Does it work?
-Does this work?
-Oh, yeah. Hell yeah.
Good to see you. Oh.
Okay, let's go.
Let's get out of here.
-Amazing.
-You look stunning.
-Stop it.
-No, you do.
Oh.
[no audible dialog]
[song changes]
[water running]
[toilet flushes]
Hey, man.
Hey.
Dude, this place...
the atmosphere, the lights,
the costume,
it's cool, right?
Yeah.
No, it's all right though.
It's vintage.
You like vintage.
Yeah.
You guys, uh, been dancing?
No, not yet really.
Why are you here?
Just checking in.
Dude, can't you just
leave me the f*ck alone?
Frey, you're out
on a date with my wife.
I'm just making sure
that everything's cool.
And I'm curious.
You're a real as*h*le.
Come on, Frey.
I'm gonna defend myself.
I'm gonna defend myself.
Get off. Get off!
Get off of me!
I don't care.
I don't care.
I'm gonna tell her.
I don't care.
Tell her?
You're gonna tell her
that I gave you
permission to date her?
Yeah, bet that goes well.
[song changes]
[no audible dialog]
Hey.
[crying] Oh, God.
It's a f*cked up night.
This is a f*cked up night.
Hey, hey, everybody okay?
Yes.
Hey, why do you
keep walking away?
-Why can't you leave her alone?
-Frey, don't.
What do you want
me to do, Steven?
Look, I'm not mad, all right?
I get it.
I'm really happy
that you're not mad.
Why don't you
just go home and...
be with whoever
you've been staying with?
Because I don't want to.
-Look, are you okay?
-I'm fine, yes.
I'm fine, okay?
-She's fine, Jeremy.
-Shut up.
Shut up.
This is a stupid dream.
Stupid, f*cking stupid dream.
-Is this what you want?
-I wanna go home.
I wanna go home.
-[Jeremy] I need a ride.
-[laughs]
Oh, my God.
Did he know
about us the whole time?
[no audible dialog]
He talked to your mom?
Well, I mean, he--
it wasn't that bad, really.
He was more messing with me.
Wait, you think--you think
that I brought him there
or something?
-I didn't.
-Stop it.
[no audible dialog]
This is--it's just--
this is just done
for now, I think.
Why?
[sighs]
Where did you think
this was gonna go?
Did you think I was
just gonna keep visiting you
upstairs in your room?
-Is this spot okay?
-I think I should be there.
-I think I should be--
-He's my f*cking husband!
I know how to handle him, okay?
I'm sorry.
-God, I f*cking better
know how to handle him.
-I'm sor--
[door opens]
[water running]
[glass clicks]
[water running]
[footsteps receding]
[footsteps on stairs]
[sighs]
Do you want me
to sleep on the couch?
Yeah.
I think it'd be better
if you did.
All right.
I'm--I'm sorry.
Yeah, I know you've been with
that kid for a little while.
He's nice. [laughs]
I see why you like him.
-Good night.
-Night.
[chorus vocalizing]
[coach]
Take your mark.
[splashes]
Go!
Get to the back
of the line now!
Hurry up.
f*ck!
Oh, my God!
Stop acting like idiots.
[no audible dialog]
[chorus fades]
[water pattering]
[children playing]
-Hi, there.
-Well, hello.
It's been a bit.
I don't even know
why I'm here.
I know.
It's awkward, I'm sorry.
What?
I don't know, I just--
I just wanna be able to
talk with you face to face.
I see. You--
you're gonna give me
the talk face to face
instead of just blowing me off.
Yeah, I bet you've been
thinking this one over.
This isn't easy, Jeremy.
I obviously have some
things I need to figure out.
Yeah, it seems that way.
Well, I know this is gonna
sound like a line or whatever,
but I just--
I mean, no matter what,
I really want to talk with you.
-f*ck this.
-I do, okay? I do.
You are this--
this great person
with just this amazing
take on things.
Yeah, that's enlightening.
Why don't you just f*ck off?
I--God, I'm sorry that
you have to say that to me.
I'm not putting you out to dry.
I'm not--
it's not like
something was just completely
turned off in me.
Then I guess you're just really
crazy and f*cked up, huh?
-What's going on, homes?
-What do you want?
Your--your boys gonna do
a number seven on me?
Not unless you give them
the reason to.
Look, I'm not
the Son of Sam, all right?
I realize that this stress
isn't helpful.
Exams, the taper mode, etc.
-What?
-You're tapering, right?
I got respect
for student athletes, Jeremy.
I know about the taper.
Are you following me everywhere?
What? No! Come on, man.
I'm just trying
to talk with you.
f*ck.
Can't you see that?
What's wrong with it?
Yeah, just stop following me.
I'll call the police.
Hey, look, look, I'm not
following you, okay?
All right,
I'll stop following you.
[exhales]
Forget it, whatever.
Just--I just want--
I just want you to
leave me alone.
Leave me out of your
f*cking swinger games
What? f*cking swingers?
Come on, man, what games?
It wasn't a plan, man.
Whatever.
Hey, look.
I'm sorry
about what happened, okay?
I feel f*cking shitty,
all right?
I'm sorry.
I really am sorry.
Whatever.
Man, come on,
you gotta believe me.
You--
you're a good kid, okay?
If--if I was gonna
have a son, I'd, uh--
I'd want him to have
qualities like yours.
Wait, what the--
what the f*ck?
-Who are you, man?
-I mean it.
Sit down.
Why would you be okay
with me being with her?
Don't f*cking judge me,
Captain, all right?
You do not know as much
as you think you do.
The results from all
the choices you've ever
made have been creamy?
Free will, Jeremy.
Everybody's got free will.
I do, you do, Beth does.
She was into you.
Maybe she had to get it
out of her system.
-I don't know.
-Maybe she didn't want to
get me out of her system.
Hey, maybe, yeah.
Sure, but you wanna f*ck
each other up about it?
I don't. I'm played out
with that approach
and I like to think that
I've been given the benefit
of a bigger perspective.
What perspective?
I go a little deeper.
I f*ck you up, then what?
What's the point in causing
you intense physical harm
or stress?
It's not gonna help.
Like you weren't
cheating on her.
Oh, my God, how does it feel
being right all the time?
Jeremy, it must be t*rture,
watching everybody else
be wrong.
You ever pay a mortgage?
You stay up till three
in the morning working
so you can go somewhere nice
with your wife?
Your f*cking brain
isn't even fully formed yet.
How the f*ck
are you judging me?
I don't think
I'm right all the time.
You think that's okay?
To cheat?
Not that simple.
That's f*cking bullshit,
why? Why isn't it that simple?
Yeah, I don't know.
All right, well...
good luck with the swimming.
And, uh...
rest up for taper, all right?
You should eat carbs.
They're good right now.
