01x05 - It Was Him, Chainsaws, Me

[bunniefuu]

-Um--
-[shouting] Thank you!

Spit it out.
Spit it out.

Spit it out. Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you.

You're welcome.

What if we lived together?

-Seriously?
-Yeah.

Well, yes.

Are you sure you're ready
to live with me?

Are you sure?

As ready as I'll ever be.

For Narnia!

-[Julie] Yup, that's not good.
-Okay, put both the hands
on the handle bars.

[Julie] Oh, Lord.

I want to be able
to do things on my own.

But after today's lesson,

there's just me,
going for Narnia.

For Narnia!

They ain't stopping.

-So there's something I have
to tell you guys.
-Hmm.

Me and Colin are gonna
move in with each other.

I was quite aware that
this might present itself,

just not today.

Do you both approve
of them moving in together?

My concerns... are many.

[Baylen] p*nis.

Me and Colin are
on our way to Roanoke

to tell his parents
that we're moving in together.

-Hey, y'all made it.
-[Colin] Hey.

-Yeah.
-Hi.

[Colin]
My parents are very religious.

We raised our children
to be godly.

Are you ready
to do this tomorrow?

We're in the process
of trying to move into the--

Oh, so who's-- who's we?

[Baylen] Oh, no.

I have already f*cked up.

I can't believe
I just said "We."

[opening theme music playing]

So what's going on with you?

Anything new?

We're in the process
of trying to move into the--

Oh, so who's-- who's we?

Me and Colin
are visiting his parents

to tell them our big news.

He wants to tell them
last-minute,

however, I'm sitting here
with his mom and sister

in words just...
[imitates spewing]

Like, um, me
and like my family,

-are trying
to like navigate...
-Oh, okay.

...like, me going
into the city

and finding out which-- like,

-which area is the best...
-Gotcha.

-...and like financing
and all that fun stuff.
-Yeah.

Yeah, it's a lot
that goes into a move.

[exhales] Thank God.

I caught myself
before spilling

that we're gonna
live together.

[Colleen] Take care.
Have a safe drive back.

-It was so good to see you.
-[Colin] We will.

[Baylen] I know how
important it is to Colin

to be able
to tell them directly

because of their traditional
Christian beliefs.

[Marlene] Do y'all want to
walk up to the star?

-Yeah. That's fine.
-Okay.

-Let's go.
-Perfect. All right, let's go.

[Colin sighs]

If my parents
don't accept this news...

I don't know how Baylen
and I are gonna move forward.

-[Chuck] Ooh.
-[Marlene] I'm glad the rain
held off, though.

Yeah. It was a pretty
good day today.

It was.

We came down here

to kind of talk to you
about something...

uh, important.

-So my roommate is leaving...
-Mmm-hmm?

...and it's too expensive
for me to live there by myself

or find a place by myself...

-Yeah.
-so...

Baylen and I
are moving in together.

And we kind of wanted
to bring that to you guys

out of respect.

Um...

So...

[Chuck]
You guys are adults now.

I am not gonna tell you
what to do about your life.

[Marlene] Obviously,
we prefer marriage first,

but it's not gonna change
how we feel.

-That's it.
-Yeah, I would have been
a little bit upset

if you'd have waited
and told us

after three months
you'd been moved in.

-[Colin] Mmm-hmm.
-"Oh, by the way,

we decided to move in."

This braces me for it.

So, uh...

You're bald.

[all laugh]

Yes!

I'm relieved that

we can still have the same
relationship that we have

and move forward,
even though

we have different
perspectives on this...

specific topic.

[Marlene] Colin,
when you first told us

you were gonna bring
Baylen home,

you mentioned on the phone
before I'd even met her

that you'd already told her

she's gonna stay
in Colleen's old room

and you stay downstairs.

And I asked you,
"How did she feel about it?"

And you said
she's okay with it

because she wants
to respect us.

I would
never disrespect you...

-No, I appreciate that.
-...or your beliefs
in any way.

I get it.

[Marlene] And I know
you were nervous to meet me,

but, girl, I was
more nervous to meet you.

So I just wanted--
I want you to know that...

you had me at that moment.

So the more that you come here

and the more
that we get to see you,

um, I hope you get
more comfortable.

[Chuck]
We want you to be yourself.

We don't want anything
but Baylen.

You're not just Baylen Dupree,

Colin's girlfriend
with Tourette's.

You're Baylen Dupree,
Colin's girlfriend, period.

And... [laughs]
that's what matters to me.

So I want you
to be you around us

and it's okay.

-I love you.
-[crying] Oh, I love you.

[Chuck]
I think Baylen's genuine

and I think
she's really good for Colin.

[Marlene] Well,
y'all be safe driving back.

-Okay?
-Okay.

[Marlene] It's the first time
that I've really seen Colin

really care that much
about somebody.

-Baylen.
-Bye, bud.

-Take care of yourself, honey.
Good luck.
-We love you.

Love you too.

And so I can tell
that he's in love with her.

And so she's important to him,

so, therefore,
she's important to us.

All right, y'all be safe.

-All right, we will.
-Bye, puppies!

Okay.

[Chuck] I would hope,
in the near future,

our relationship becomes
more of a relationship

with her family also.

[upbeat music playing]

[Baylen]
That went really well.

It did. They were a lot more
open to the idea

than what I thought
they would be.

That makes me so happy,
you know?

-Yeah.
-And...

I want you to have
the same conversation
with my dad

because my dad is
very protective

and my dad just wants to talk.

My dad has been supportive

of mine
and Colin's relationship,

knowing that I love him
and I want to be with him.

But dating is
completely different

than moving in with someone.

Yeah.

I have no problem with
talking to your father.

-Yay! Thank you.
-Mmm-hmm.

Suck a p*nis.

Just because Colin's
in the military

and he's trying to act cool,

he's scared.
[laughing] He's scared.

I would be, too.

I'm just-- I'm so excited
to live together,

but I think that
I'm actually more excited

to turn it into something
that obviously we both love.

But I know
you don't like pink,

and I still want you
to love the apartment.

And--

Why are you laughing?

I'm just envisioning...

-You're gonna be embarrassed?
-...an all pink apartment.

I'm not gonna be embarrassed.

I would just rather not walk
through the apartment door,

-and it's just--
-No Candy Land?

It's just like someone
vomited pink everywhere.

Well, I don't want
everything to be pink,

but I want it to be
like coordinated.

So like if I had
a pink and red rug...

Oh, my God, Valentine's Day
in our apartment...

-Every--
-...every day!

[laughing]

♪♪ Is this really you? ♪♪

♪♪ When I see you
angels sing above ♪♪

[Allen] I'm cooking bacon.
How do you want these?

-Crispy?
-He likes them flabby, Al.

He'll eat them by--

[Allen] Okay.

You rested from your trip,
Baylen?

-Yeah.
-[Bechnir] Mother...

I mean, we got home
really late last night.

-Yeah.
-[Baylen] Oh, and guess what.

Olivia is flying in for work

and Aileen is coming
from Ohio,

so I'm so excited because

we're going to do
some shopping.

[Julie] Mmm-hmm.

But I'm also gonna tell
both of them,

because they don't know,

-that I'm moving in
with Colin.
-[Julie] Okay.

I'm so excited to go shopping

and to have Aileen meet Olivia
and Olivia meet Aileen.

Olivia is a new friend
I recently met

at a Tourette convention.

And Aileen has been one
of my biggest
supporters and cheerleaders

and has encouraged me
to meet new friends,

especially in
the Tourette's community.

-I definitely
need a ride to the city...
-[Bechnir] Whoa.

-...if that's possible.
-[Julie] That's fine.

How are you going to get home?

[Allen]
I'm going to be at work.

I was thinking
about taking the lawnmower,

but I just didn't know.

I guess I have to take
a rideshare.

I can't drive,

so taking
public transportation

is the only option.

No, you should ride your bike.

Okay, we're in.

I'm-- I'm basically a taxi.

[Baylen] But it's extremely
uncomfortable when I tic.

They're looking at me
like I am the craziest b*tch

that they have ever met
in their life.

[Julie] Is now
a good time to find out

how'd it go
with Colin's parents?

-Oh, my God, yeah--
-[Allen] Is this going to
be too long?

Do I need to put on
more bacon?

[Baylen] It was good, yeah.

And, I mean, I was definitely,
not holding in my tics,

but I was trying to like
camouflage them,

like periodically.

-[Julie] Yeah.
-Um...

I tic and I say,
"I'm pregnant."

Oh, you did not.

Yes, I did. Yes, I did.

I'm pregnant.

Oof! I'm not. I'm not.

[laughing] I'm not.

Oof.

[Baylen] Yup, so that's
where that came out yesterday.

Mmm-hmm.

And then we also
had the conversation

with Colin's parents
about living with each other,

which, surprisingly,
went amazing.

And it obviously goes
against their beliefs,

-but...
-[Julie] Mmm-hmm.

They probably appreciated
the full disclosure,

-honestly.
-Yes, no, they did.

They said that
they would be mad

if me and Colin did it

and we told them six months
into living with each other.

People appreciate honesty.

-Like your dad said,
"Just be--"
-I told you, don't lie.

[Julie] I love that.

I'm excited to
meet them sometime.

I mean, I'm excited
for all of us to meet,

but like
we got to work on...

-Huh.
-...the language
before we meet.

Like, we can't have Vick
is cussing out Bechnir and...

-Yeah.
-Well, what's wrong with
my mouth?

I don't like cuss that much.

You speak full truckdriver.

The thing that
makes me mad mostly

is when I say a bad word
around a kid,

and they're like,
"You don't say that!"

-You're a kid.
-"I'm sorry,

you've never heard
a bad word in your life?"

-f*ck!
-I'm like an older kid.

I just feel like this couch is
sinking the hell in.

Great example.

-[laughing mischievously]
-Great example.

I know your concerns
regarding living with Colin.

I brought up to Colin...

We fully support

you wanting to move in
with your boyfriend.

But as a dad,
for me to let go,

I need to know that
your boyfriend,

in this moment,

will do everything
he possibly can to defend you,

even if he gets his a*s beat.

[Julie] I like him.
I don't know if he's forever.

He's definitely good
for her in this moment.

But I'm not sure about

his drive to always
be a provider at all costs.

Because you never know

how much she's gonna have
the ability to work.

That's why I want you guys
to have the talk

and a conversation.

You guys are the two
important men in my life.


[loud verbal tic]

[tic continues]

I have never been around
two people with Tourette's

at the same time before.

Oh, no.

Uh, I know she spoke with you
about us moving in together.

She said that you had
some concerns and questions.

Yes, I have.

I have some deep concerns.

[upbeat music playing]

♪♪ Yeah, we lit
Yeah, we lit, yeah, we lit ♪♪

♪♪ We gonna turn the party out
till the sun come up... ♪♪

I was like, "Where is she?"

I'm hiding behind the car.

How are you?

-Good.
-Oh, my God.
You look beautiful!

-I love it.
-I like the lipstick!

Do you-- it's the lip liner.

I am so incredibly happy

that Aileen and Olivia
get to meet.

-Oh, my God. Yes!
-Oh, my gosh!

-Hi! It's so good to see you!
-Hi!

I am so excited
to see Baylen again,

to hang out with her.

She's just so fun
and like real.

-Hi, I'm Olivia!
-Hi!

-It's so nice to meet you!
-It's so nice to meet you!

I was, like,
looking at your arms.

-Oh, my gosh,
thank you so much!
-Oh, my God!

Just to have
two good people in my life

that I love very much,

it means a lot
that they like each other.

-Oh, my God, this is so cute.
-Oh, my God,
it does look so good in here.

Hi there. Welcome to Boxwood.

-Hello!
-Hello!

-[Aileen] Do we want to
look at these lamps?
-[Olivia] Oh, yes.

[loud tic]

[woman] They put off three
different types of light.

Oh, that's beautiful.

-[Baylen] How much are they?
-169.

I love them.

So, is it 169 each?
Or is it like...

-Oh, she said 169?
-169.

[whispering]

Are you shopping for anything
specific today, ma'am?

Anything that says pink.

Me and Colin don't actually
have an apartment yet,

but there's
always time to shop.

I'm a professional shopper.

So there's specific things
that, like,

when I move, like,
things I need to look for.

But I've started looking...

-[Aileen] Yeah.
-...but I also...

am moving in with Colin.

-[gasps] What?
-That's so exciting!

-Finally?
-I know. Really?

-Oh, my God!
-Congratulations.

I think it's
definitely high time

they need to experience that.

But the real trial is
going to be if

he can see her at her worst

and not decide
to leave after that.

That's literally
the true test.

You're done.

You're done.

Yeah.

-Oh, is it?
-It's plastic?

-Yeah.
-That's good.

And when I picked it up,
I was like--

That's nice. It's light.

It is tic proof.

-I love it.
-It is for her.

What other things are
tic proof?

It's already stressful

getting used to
moving in with someone,

and then Tourette's,

and just seeing
how that all combines,

I'm hoping that everything
is going to go great.

Oh, no.

[Aileen] So how do your
parents feel about all this?

[Baylen] Like, I have, like,
their blessing.

But, my dad's concerns are
where I was four years ago.

-Mmm.
-And how Colin
hasn't seen me at my worst.

Well, like, my parents
literally had to feed me
four years ago.

They were literally
spoon-feeding me.

Have you, like, thought
about I'm trying Botox?

I want to do Botox.

-Yeah?
-So you can use it
to help with your tics?

-Yeah. It's even
on the TA website...
-Yeah.

...for, like, a treatment.

I really want
to try new treatments

to help manage my tics.

[abrupt tic]

But deep brain
stimulation surgery

is a no for me right now.

I have Tourette's syndrome,
stupid.

Botox is a less
invasive procedure

and a safer option.

[loud tic]

I had Botox in my jaw
a couple of years ago for tic.


I remember
you telling me that,

and I literally-- yeah.

-And it's from--
-[sighs] Oh.

Yeah.

We just set our tics off
all day

because we have the same--
a lot of the same ones.

[long tic]

[tic continues]

I have never been around
two people with Tourette's

at the same time before ever.

Setting each other's
tics off,

-you guys were just
talking about that.
-Yeah.

Has it been, like,
kind of hard?

Or are you
just kind of like...

Honestly, I want to say
like having a connection

and having a relationship

-and having like a community--
-[Aileen] More important.

Yeah.

[Baylen] We're going through
the same thing.

That makes me so happy.

[Aileen]
When Baylen and I first
talked about making friends,

especially with Tourette's,

she talked about being scared
of, like,

setting each other's tics off.

But from what I've noticed,
um,

it honestly is very minimal.

She's able to get past that
and interact with someone

who has the same
condition as her.

And Olivia is really sweet.

Okay, well, we need to
pick something out
for you apartment.

I think we should
literally get the frame

-and then take
a picture outside.
-And then take a picture?

-[Aileen] I love that idea.
-Yeah?

[Baylen] I never wanted
to even make friends

with someone
who had Tourette's,

and I know that sounds
terrible on my end to say.

That would match
like the aesthetic.

It all just came down to
me being scared

of what it would do to me.

But she's such a beautiful
soul to be around.

I love Olivia.

-It was so nice to meet you.
-You too. Oh, my goodness,

we need to hang out again.

-Please.
-When should we plan
something else?

Let me know about Botox

-and if you wanna hang out
again while I'm here.
-No, I will.

Oh, my God, yes.

-Yes. Oh, my God,
I love you.
-All right, I love you.

All right,
I'll see you later.

How are you getting home?

Just stay on
the side of the road.

You're gonna hitchhike?
Big--

No, I'm just gonna
call a car.

-Okay. Okay, great.
-Sometime.

-I love you. Get home safe.
-Okay, bye. You too.

You got this.

There we go.

Hey, what's up?

-How are you?
-[Allen] Good.

No, I know she's not here.

I came to actually
talk to you.

What's up?

I know she spoke with you
about us moving in together.

And she said that you had
some concerns and questions,

and I was...

I'm here to hopefully relieve
those concerns that you have.

I'm extremely nervous
to talk to Baylen's dad.

Well, I... sh*t I got...

I got a lot. Come on.

f*ck, come over here.

Yeah. You need some help?

Yeah. Um...

[sighs]

Yes, I have.

I have some deep concerns

about those two
moving in together.

[Colin]
The biggest fear that I have

is Allen saying that
"I don't think

that you're fit
to protect my daughter."

That scares the hell
out of me.

[soft music playing]

[Allen] Yes,
I have some deep concerns

about those two
moving in together.

[sighs] Um...
I'll start with...

I knew this day
was probably coming.

But I've definitely
got questions,

a lot of questions.

-Yeah.
-So...

That's what I'm here for.

You know what's
most important to me

and what's not.

And I'll take you back
four or five years.

Imagine yourself...

in the middle of the ocean

and your kid's drownin'.

And you're trying to help her,
you're trying to save her,

you're trying
to hang on to her,

and you keep
being pulled under.

And I don't mean for a day,
I don't mean for an hour.

Every day.

I can't solve this problem.

Doctors don't
know what they're doing.

Trying to do everything I can

to make sure
that Baylen is okay,

my wife's okay,

I can hold
the family together,

I can do all of this,

and I don't--
I don't matter.

So I drive down the road
you just drove down

every single day to work,

and I cried in my f*cking
truck right there.

Every day.

So I know you guys
want to move in together.

But, as a dad,
I got to know...

that you can
do what I just did.

So that's kind of where I am

with this whole
moving in thing.

A lease to me is a commitment,
right?

Are you going to be
on the lease?

Yes, sir.

What are you paying for?

Because you've got to man up.

I need to know
that, financially,

she's going to be okay.

How many more years
do you have left

on your commitment to
the Air Force?

Two and a half.

When your time is up,
are you gonna stay?

I haven't decided yet.

Okay. So I need to know where
you're going to be, like,

work-wise.

Right now,
I'm not in a position

to make any sort of decision.

Um...

I just don't have an answer

as far as my relocation.

That's something that
I can't provide.

You know, if there was
an expectation or a standard

for me to have this all--

grand plan of what
I want to do with my life

in the next four years,

I don't have that, so...

She told me multiple times

that I haven't seen
that side of her,

-where she's been bedridden
and she's had to...
-Yeah.

...take showers
with clothes on,

and you or Julie
had to give her showers.

I haven't seen
that side of her.

But I'm not leaving her side,
no matter what,

or leaving
when things get tough.

She's my number one priority.

And I promise you that
I will do everything I can

to protect her.

[exhales]

I can't say this enough
because, I mean,

I mean f*cking this,
and I mean this

as I'm staring into
your f*cking brain, Colin.

Nothing better happen
to my kid.

Nothing.

I need Colin to make sure

that he is in this
with everything he's got.

I just need him to try.

I just need him to try.

If she's over there
on your watch

and something happens to her,

I'm telling you, Colin,
I will...

I will f*cking find you.

Okay?

Mmm-hmm.
I understand.

Mmm...

Whether if I'm ready or not,
I got to let her go.

[voice breaking] So...

Mmm...

It was a hard conversation
to have.

Um, I think right now,

I'm still kind of
digesting everything

because it makes me feel
like,

"Am I doing something wrong?"

But I know that I love Baylen
with everything in me,

and I will do anything

to prove to Allen how sincere
my feelings are for her.

-For Baylen?
-[Aman] Yes, ma'am.

[abrupt tic] Oh. Shut up!

Hi. How are you?

Good. How are you doing?

I'm good. f*ck a p*nis.

[abrupt tic]

How was your day?

It's been good.
It's been eventful.

How was your day?

Good.

Oh, it's still raining.

I know.
The weather is so p*nis.

p*nis, p*nis.

Are you visiting here?

Uh, yeah,
I'm trying to, uh...

move into the area.

-Uh-huh.
-My mom sucks penises.

Oof!

Joe Biden has a vag*na.

[Aman] I was a little confused
what's going on.

She said
Joe Biden does have a vag*na.

[laughing] I was like,
"What's going on with her?

Like, she's real?"

Have you-- um-- [tics] Oof.

Have you heard of Tourette's?

No.

[abrupt tic]

What is that?

Tourette's is--

I have Tourette's syndrome,
stupid.

It's an involuntary motor
and vocal disorder.

A lot of people get it
confused as a mental illness,

but it's, uh, neurological.

I got it.

So I lack control
over my body and what I say.

Sure.

[Aman] I thought, you know,
she was doing this purposely.

And then, you know,
after she explained it to me,

I understand.

[Baylen] p*nis!

My mom sucks penises.

[laughs]

So Have you
always lived in, uh...

Virginia? Yes.

Do you have a family?

I have my wife
and I have three boys.

Definitely fun.

I'm one of six.

Uh-huh. Are you
on your way home now?

-Yeah. Yeah.
-Okay.

Have you had dinner?

-Not yet.
-What's for dinner?

I don't know.
I am from Afghanistan.

Mmm-hmm.

So we make a very
delicious food at home.

I've never had
Middle Eastern food.

You like falafel?

-Falafel?
-Have you tried falafel?

-Mmm-mmm.
-It's vegetarian.

-Your mom looks like
a falafel.
-Some chickpeas--

[Baylen] Aman was so sweet
and he didn't care

about my tics. I mean,

I learned more about him than
he probably did about me.

I love that.

[abrupt tic]

Your mom's built like
a falafel.

Body built like a falafel.

I need to remember that
there's good people out there,

that they're just...

going to treat you
like a person,

the same way
that they're treated.

God damn.

I'm googling a falafel.

Like, now
I have a tic about a falafel.

-I need to know...
-Yeah.

I need to know
what a falafel is.

Let's go. You want to go?

[Baylen] Pit stop.

Baylen.

-Hey, Dad.
-What are you doing?

Looking at rugs.

Rugs?

-Yeah.
-You're not shopped out?

-Never.
-Okay.

So, I talked to Colin.

And me and your mom
are in this.

But for me, as your dad,
really, it's...

You okay?

Yeah. My jaw hurts really bad.

I just keep having
the same jaw tic.

For me, it's more...

of a me issue,
not a you issue.

-Mmm-hmm.
-Okay?

Because I don't know...

how to navigate and let go.

Okay?

And as your dad, I'm really...

trying to...

let it go.

Four years ago,

when Baylen first
started this struggle,

it got very dark
and very depressing,

and it took me two years
to say Baylen's name...

without, like, crying.

And here I am, like,
four years later,

and I'm still
emotionally struggling.

[Baylen] I love you.

Okay.

-So--
-You don't need to let go
of anything, though.

I do...

because if I don't,
you won't grow.

Like, I don't want you
to think like

I don't care
for your boyfriend.

Like, it's none of my business
whoever you fall in love with.

But as your dad,

I have to make sure
you're okay.

-Mmm-hmm.
-Because if you're not okay,

-I can't be.
-Mmm-hmm.

Like, I can't be.

-Okay?
-Yeah.

You have nothing to
worry about.

Well...

I can't also push you away
because I'm not...

open to the wonderful things
that you see.

I don't want you to think that
I'm being difficult for you.

-I don't think you are.
-Right?

I just I have to keep you--

You just love me.
You're just my dad.

Yeah, but...

You're asking
all the right questions.

Like, you're making sure
that Colin is the person

that's going to...

be there in need,
when I need help.

I know where
you're coming from.

Like, I understand.

And I want to prove
to you guys...

that when I leave,
there's no need to be worried.

My dad is my hero.

So it's so important
to be able

to show and tell him
that I'm going to be okay,

and I'm gonna be safe,
and I'm gonna be protected.

I love you.

All right, honey.
I love you. Okay?

[Baylen] I mean,
it's even important to...

prove to myself
because I wouldn't feel
comfortable leaving

if they didn't
feel comfortable
letting me leave.

I love you,
and I'm super happy for you.

All right.

[sniffles]

I mean, you're being
a little quiet.

Did the talk
with my dad go okay?

It wasn't a fun conversation,

but it wasn't even
a conversation to begin with.

g*dd*mn. [vocal tic]

Baylen and I go out
to bars on occasion.

f*ck you, Marc.
Suck p*nis.

Alcohol makes my tics
more active.

[screams]

-[Julie] Who's excited?
-[Olivia] I'm excited.

[Julie] Botox is not
just for old people like me.

[Olivia] Please.

[Julie] So like a lot of women
in their forties, I get Botox.

And Olivia had actually
mentioned it to Baylen

as a treatment option.

[Baylen] Body built
like Joe Biden. [vocal tic]
Thank you.

[Julie] I know
she's very hesitant

to do any treatments
that are super invasive.

Like DBS,
deep brain stimulation.

And I have
a Botox girl that I trust.

Hello!

[all] Hi!

[Baylen] I'm so excited
to try Botox

because it's a treatment
that is used for Tourette's
to help with facial tics.

-All right, come on back.
-[Baylen] [vocal tic]

[Baylen] And I think
I'm prepared

because I took my meds
to help with my anxiety.

I was looking
at your medical history,
you have Tourette's.

-I have
Tourette's syndrome, stupid.
-So--

f*ck you, JB. f*ck you.

Take your camera and leave.

Yeah, yeah.
Take your camera
and get the f*ck out.

Bay's tics are a little bit
over the top today.

I see Joe Biden. [tic]

So JB, the camera director,
sets my tics off

because I watched five minutes
of the debate,

and JB...

Joe Biden
kind of just clicked.

I have nothing
against any of the crew.

I love JB.
That's a shout out.

Do you have a lot of tics
around your eyes?

How I would describe it...
It's like here down, kinda.

-[Julie] Okay, gotcha.
-Yes.

So by injecting Botox
a little bit here,
of Botox here--

Joe Biden's vag*na.

[Julie] That can help relax
the muscle

and also potentially help
reduce the tics.

[Baylen] And what
would you say about Botox
in my jaw?

It's like such a complex...
Like, a extensive tic

because it's not only taking
my jaw for it, it's taking...

-Right. Absolutely.
-Like, my whole body.

I don't wanna
set it off any more.

You're setting
Olivia off over here.

We're setting
each other off right now.

Baylen has got a lot
of very abrupt,

rigid movements

that it's almost like
she's concrete in them
sometimes.

So you can tell
when your ticks are coming on?

-Mm-hmm.
-Okay.

So because I'm gonna have
a needle very close
to your eye, okay?

[Baylen gasps]

When you feel it come on,
raise your hand for me

so I can safely just pull out.

So I'm hoping
this treatment plan
will really do well for her.

Now, I am gonna tell you that
with the masseter injections,
it is a little bit deeper.

Okay, the deeper injection,
like, is...
[chuckles nervously]

So the needle's
probably like this.
Maybe an inch.

[Baylen] Am I gonna cry?

No, we'll just take it
nice and easy. Nice and slow.

-[Baylen speaking]
-[Julie] Of course.

[Julie] I definitely
have some nerves

about, like, hand-motion
or eyeball.

The whole situation,
I'm squeezy-toying. [laughs]

I need all the things.

[Julie] Ready?
One, two, three.
Little poke. Boop.

-That was the first, poke.
-Good job.

[Julie] Okay.

-Sorry.
-[Julie] Nope. You're okay.

-How are you doing, Mom?
-[Julie] You okay?

Yeah.

My mom has hemorrhoids.

-Julie, no, I don't.
-Body built...

Baylin doesn't seem
to be uncomfortable.
She seems like she's okay.

-[Julie] She's doing great.
This is easy.
-Yeah.

One, two, three, boop.

Boop. Done.

You're done.

That went so well.

You did amazing.

I know that it takes
two weeks for it to fully
come into effect.

I appreciate you.
Thank you so much.

No, thank you.
I appreciate you.

But the sooner, the better.

Body built like Joe Biden.

♪♪ You need a break
And so do I ♪♪

I'm so excited to go hang out
with all of our friends,

and you're gonna be able
to meet Olivia.

And you've talked
a lot about her.

I know, I've been blowing
your ear off about her.

But I mean,
you're being a little...

quiet.

[Colin] Yeah.

Wanna tell me why?
Is everything okay?

Did the talk
with my dad go okay?

Do you need to spill the tea?

I don't know if it
really went good or bad

or whether I gave the answers
that he was looking for.

Basically, he just wants
to make sure that I'm gonna be
committed to you

and dedicated to you
to provide for you.

If that's all that happened...

I don't know,
you make it sound like it was
the easiest conversation,

it was fun conversation.

It wasn't a fun conversation,
but it wasn't even
a conversation to begin with.

In all honesty, like,
going into it.

I thought he was
just gonna ask me
a lot of questions.

And in reality,
it wasn't a lot of questions
that he asked.

And so I didn't get to do
a whole lot of talking,
it was mainly him.

What was he saying?

He talked about...

Four years ago,
you were at the lowest point
in your life,

and he was like,
"When you move in
with somebody,

it's a commitment,
but not only
is it a commitment,

it's dedication
that you have to show."

And he said,

"If you do anything
to hurt my daughter,"
he'll find me.

He will track me down
and find me.

He's not kidding.

I know he's not.

I'm sorry.

Okay, I'll shut up. I'm sorry.

Were you surprised?

Were you expecting
more or less?

-Or exactly what that was?
-Less.

But he wants
the same thing that I want.

The betterment
for Baylen's life
and her condition.

[Baylen] I know
my dad's concerns,
but it's not all on Colin.

I wanna be strong
on my own for me.

I'm glad that he was able
to tell you that face-to-face.

So, Dad's
actually moving in...

-[Baylen laughs]
-Okay.

He's gonna get
the spare bedroom

g*dd*mn. [vocal tic]

[Colin] Baylen and I go out
to bars on occasion.

So this is super exciting
because it's what
people our age do.

Body built like a falafel.

However, her tics today
have been very active.

I'm a little ticky.

I have
Tourette's syndrome, stupid.

And alcohol makes my tics
more active.

f*ck you, Marc.
Suck a p*nis.

Hey, what's up?

So sometimes it's just
genuinely hard to do something
that everyone else is doing.

-[vocal tic] Hey.
-[Marc] Hello.

[Baylen] But when I get
the chance that I'm able to

and it's with people
that I just feel at ease,
it's fun.

[Colin] Thanks for coming.

Of course.
You know I couldn't miss it.

[Colin] I've invited Marc.
He's a really close friend.

And then I've also invited
Austin, my roommate.

We've all hung out together,

they've met Baylen
multiple times.

Prior to Baylen, I didn't know
anybody with Tourette's,

but with my goofy nature,
it almost makes me want

to meet more people
with Tourette's.

-[Baylen] Suck p*nis, Marc!
-Right on cue.

[Austin] I'm super used
to hanging out with Baylen
and her tics going off,

and it's perfectly timed
to the point where
it's like... Punch line.

And I just laugh diabolically
every single time.

[Austin] So
what are you guys doing?

-We are moving in together.
-Yeah.

-[Austin] Okay.
-Yeah.

[Austin] Things are still
up in the air with you
and your work relocation.

How is that gonna look like
for you guys?

-Yeah, it's a conversation--
-The picture is still
being painted.

-[Baylen] Sucking p*nis.
-[Austin] Long distance
is worth it

-for the right person.
-Yeah.

And I feel like
y'all are together
for a reason, you know?

Olivia sucks penises
for a living.

Who's Olivia?

I met her through TIC-CON.

It's through the TAA,
which is the Tourette
Association of America

f*ck you. Look who it is.
This would be Olivia.

-You look beautiful.
-Hello, how are you?
You look beautiful.

Oh, my God, I literally
just probably smudged
your entire face makeup.

Don't even worry about it.

-Because my sweat
is probably...
-Don't even worry about it.

[Colin] So, this is Marc.

-Hi! I'm Olivia.
Nice to meet you.
-Hi. Nice to meet you.

-I'm Austin.
-Nice to meet you.

-And the famous Colin.
-And Colin.

[Baylen] They both
...penises.

-Nice to meet you.
-So nice to meet you.

-We do hugs in this family.
-Oh, you two never met?

[Colin] No,
I've never met her.

-Oh, okay.
-[Colin] Yeah.

Y'all wanna go get drinks?

-What do y'all want?
-[Baylen] Yeah,
can we get drinks?

Are you ready to drink?

Yeah.

Okay.

Alcohol is a trigger
for my tics.

[Baylen screams] Sorry.

Worst case scenario
today with drinking
is hurting myself.

My motor tics
are way worse when drinking
than my vocal tics are.

[vocal tic]

Here you go, Baylen.

-[Olivia] Thank you so much.
-[Austin] Yeah,
you're welcome.

[Baylen] Your
current roommate...

[tic] f*ck you, Austin,
you suck Marc's p*nis.

So how long have y'all
been roommates?

[Baylen] Marc sucks penises!

We've been together, bro,
for about a year.

We lived together
for a year, so...

[Olivia] Oh, that's cool.

What the f*ck
am I getting into?

Would you allow Colin
to decorate the apartment?

Knowing you? No.

That's a good answer.

[Baylen] How many times
has he played video games?

Every day.

I don't think "Love"
is a big enough word
to describe gaming to Colin.

Is it "More than love"
with you?

Are we talking, like,
the whole f*cking day?

Yeah.

My gaming area
is the most important part
of the house.

For me, it's a stress reliever
and a reset button.

sh**t, I don't even
need a bed.

I'll sleep in my gaming chair
if I have to.

Oh, hell no.
Oh, hell, nah!

[vocalizing] Hell, nah.

I have to do it one more time.

Hell, nah.

[yelling]

It's gonna be
an adjustment period
for the both of us.

Yeah.

f*ck you, Ryan.
I see you, Ryan.

So, Olivia, do you
have a boyfriend?

[Olivia] I do.
His name is Drew.

We've been friends
for, like, 10 years,

so he's really seen
the worst of the worst.

-Drew has Tourette's.
-But just started dating...

Um, just started dating
a few months ago, so...

-Does he have Tourette's?
-No, no. No, he does not.

[Austin] So that was a lie.

[Baylen] I'm sorry,
I just lied.

[Olivia] Spreading
misinformation, Baylen,
literally.

-When you say
worst of the worst--
-[screams]

[Baylen] Sorry.

-[Baylen continues screaming]
-Does that mean that
your ticks were worse

a few years ago?

Yes, I had more vocal tics.

You know, like loudly
yelling in public.

Have you ever cussed?
Have you ever had...

I don't have echolalia
or coprolalia, but I have--

A vag*na. Have good vag*na.

[Olivia] I have copropraxia,
which is, you know, the...

-f*ck...
-Flipping off.

Uh-huh, flipping off.
You know, obscene gestures
as far as...

Sucking p*nis.

There are a lot
of really big terms
to explain tics.

No, I love this, though.

And Baylen has about
every single one of 'em.

g*dd*mn.

[Colin] Shots?

-Rumple shots.
-[Baylen] Rumple shots.

I'll go get the shots.

Now that Colin's over there,
what the heck am I
getting into?

Baylen, you haven't seen
the real Colin until
it's 2:30 in the morning.


Is there something he's doing
at 2:30 in the morning

that he's doing with you,
that he's not doing...

[Olivia shrieking, laughing]

[Marc] I get a bit protective
of Baylen.

Yeah, you take on
the role of, like, big brother
little sister, type of deal.

Okay, so they
didn't have Rumple,
so we're doing vodka.

Here we go.

[Olivia] Do we do
another round?

Another round of shots.

Let's go get beers, too.

-I need a Diet Coke.
-Okay.

[Baylen] I need
to pace myself.

[Colin] Good idea.

This is like prep
before I move to the big city.

-We got a big order.
-Yeah.

Cool, cool, cool.

You're freaking moving in
with Baylen, dude.

-Yeah, I am.
-That's big.

That is big.

[Austin] This is kind
of a big step for her.
Bigger than your side.

How has that been
with her family and
how they feel about it or...

Yeah, so I actually
just recently talked
to her father,

and he can be intense.

Why do you say that?
Just 'cause, like, how he is?

-Yeah.
-He's chill!

I walked up
and he had nine chainsaws
in front of him.

And it was him, chainsaws, me.

But, like, he even
at one point said,

"If you ever hurt
my daughter, I'll find you."

Yeah. Of course.

[Colin] So I mean,
he's that kind of protective.

Like, he loves
his daughter a lot,

and I'm taking care
of his baby.

-Yeah, this is legit. Yeah.
-[Colin] Yeah.

I know it may seem
a little fast... Um...

What?

I'm wanting
to propose to Baylen.

[Baylen] What are we doing
for my birthday?

We are going to just
do a country western bar

Save a horse,
ride a cowgirl. g*dd*mn.

[woman] Come on in.

[Colin] Whoa, this is nice.

[Baylen] Hey, m*therf*ckers!

That balcony situation,
hard no for me.

My parents are still worried
about my safety
'cause of my tics.

And it felt like
this is what's needed
for my Tourette's,

and this is what's needed
for me, me, me, and me,
when it's "Us."

So for the next apartment,
me and Colin are just
gonna look at it.

Oh, my gosh.

[Baylen] Colin, we get
to pee and poop and look
at our neighbors.

It's moving day!

[Allen] Here we go.

This is about as organized
as my life.

[thunderclap]

Thunderstorms are a huge
sensory issue for me.

[Julie] This right here
is why it's scary

to think about Baylen
no longer living with us.

[Baylen] Suck a p*nis.

Colin was supposed to be
handling everything

for a new couch
to be delivered,

and they're outside right now.

I've called Colin four times.

[Julie] Baylen, look.

[Baylen] That's what
you were f*cking doing?

Colin, I'm really upset.
It's my f*cking birthday.

All I wanted was help
with the f*cking couch.

♪♪ How could I be so blind ♪♪

♪♪ But I can't take it back ♪♪

I do have a serious question
to ask you, too.

Are you gonna
walk out on Baylen

when times get tough in life?

[Allen] Things are happening
really fast.

They would shave your head,
then they drill a hole

and then they stick it
down in your brain.

[squeals]

I wasn't expecting you
to shut it down.

But I'm entitled
to my feelings, too.
