1
00:00:02,014 --> 00:00:03,470
My name is Alex Riley,

2
00:00:03,479 --> 00:00:06,112
and this is the story of my life.

3
00:00:06,114 --> 00:00:08,781
Like any life,
mine's had its good days...

4
00:00:08,783 --> 00:00:10,650
_

5
00:00:10,651 --> 00:00:12,251
_

6
00:00:12,854 --> 00:00:14,687
...its bad days...

7
00:00:14,689 --> 00:00:15,922
Sarah!

8
00:00:18,126 --> 00:00:20,760
...and its absolutely amazing days.

9
00:00:22,330 --> 00:00:23,997
- Welcome!
- Hey, Dad.

10
00:00:23,999 --> 00:00:25,732
- Do you like your new house?
- Yeah.

11
00:00:25,734 --> 00:00:27,867
And to me, that's what life's all about:

12
00:00:27,869 --> 00:00:30,970
moving forward,
despite the occasional hiccup.

13
00:00:30,972 --> 00:00:32,805
- Whoo!
- Hey, honey.

14
00:00:32,807 --> 00:00:34,374
You know that pilot I've been seeing?

15
00:00:34,376 --> 00:00:36,242
- The one from LA?
- _

16
00:00:36,244 --> 00:00:37,510
What about him?

17
00:00:37,512 --> 00:00:38,745
He asked me to marry him.

18
00:00:45,220 --> 00:00:47,687
Hiccups are easy to overcome.

19
00:00:47,689 --> 00:00:49,222
Know what aren't?

20
00:00:49,224 --> 00:00:50,256
Chokes.

21
00:00:51,760 --> 00:00:54,694
- He's choking.
- You're telling me.

22
00:00:54,696 --> 00:00:56,863
No, he's literally choking.

23
00:00:57,031 --> 00:00:59,098
Little bro!

24
00:01:03,872 --> 00:01:05,238
Looks like I blew my chance

25
00:01:05,240 --> 00:01:07,440
to kiss the girl of my dreams, right?

26
00:01:07,442 --> 00:01:09,042
Wrong.

27
00:01:09,044 --> 00:01:10,743
Alex?

28
00:01:11,723 --> 00:01:13,044
_

29
00:01:13,214 --> 00:01:15,448
Nori.

30
00:01:18,853 --> 00:01:20,987
I'll admit, there are days
when it's a challenge

31
00:01:20,989 --> 00:01:22,622
to get out there and face the world.

32
00:01:25,160 --> 00:01:29,128
But as the Chinese
philosopher Lao-Tzu wrote,

33
00:01:29,130 --> 00:01:33,099
"A journey of a thousand miles
begins with a single step."

34
00:01:36,304 --> 00:01:40,139
Or, in some cases, a single roll.

35
00:01:40,141 --> 00:01:41,240
Ah!

36
00:01:50,452 --> 00:01:53,419
Bad news. Little bro has a 104 fever.

37
00:01:53,421 --> 00:01:54,787
- No, I don't.
- Really?

38
00:01:54,789 --> 00:01:57,390
Then how do you explain this? 104.

39
00:01:57,392 --> 00:01:59,992
You've been running it
under hot water all morning.

40
00:01:59,994 --> 00:02:02,228
Be that as it may,
we should probably keep you home

41
00:02:02,230 --> 00:02:03,529
just to be on the safe side.

42
00:02:03,531 --> 00:02:04,764
He's got a point.

43
00:02:04,766 --> 00:02:06,466
Frail kids like Alex

44
00:02:06,468 --> 00:02:08,568
are much more susceptible
to illness and disease.

45
00:02:08,570 --> 00:02:12,138
First of all, not frail.
Second of all, not sick.

46
00:02:12,140 --> 00:02:14,107
Justin only wants me to stay at home

47
00:02:14,109 --> 00:02:16,809
'cause he thinks kids are
gonna be mean to me at lunch.

48
00:02:16,811 --> 00:02:18,244
This is middle school.

49
00:02:18,246 --> 00:02:20,480
Your entire social status is determined

50
00:02:20,482 --> 00:02:22,648
by where you sit in the cafeteria.

51
00:02:22,650 --> 00:02:24,650
And with the "mint-cident" still fresh,

52
00:02:24,652 --> 00:02:27,353
Chokey here is gonna have a
hard time finding a table.

53
00:02:27,355 --> 00:02:28,688
Well, why can't he sit with you?

54
00:02:28,690 --> 00:02:29,956
We have different lunch periods,

55
00:02:29,958 --> 00:02:31,424
so I won't be there to help.

56
00:02:31,426 --> 00:02:32,692
I don't need your help.

57
00:02:32,694 --> 00:02:33,826
You know, when I was your age,

58
00:02:33,828 --> 00:02:35,628
the cafeteria was a place

59
00:02:35,630 --> 00:02:38,798
where the weak and defenseless
were mercilessly preyed upon

60
00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,867
like gazelles at a watering hole.

61
00:02:40,869 --> 00:02:43,669
And believe me, we were merciless.

62
00:02:43,671 --> 00:02:45,571
Look, there's nothing
to worry about, okay?

63
00:02:45,573 --> 00:02:46,570
I'll be fine.

64
00:02:46,675 --> 00:02:48,841
Well, just in case
you decide to skip lunch,

65
00:02:48,843 --> 00:02:52,278
let's make sure you
have some extra oatmeal.

66
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:54,947
That's okay. I'll just grab a waffle.

67
00:02:54,949 --> 00:02:56,687
You've had waffles for
every breakfast this week.

68
00:02:56,751 --> 00:02:58,518
That's 'cause they're the
best food in the world.

69
00:02:58,520 --> 00:02:59,652
Aren't you sick of them?

70
00:02:59,654 --> 00:03:01,120
Are you kidding?

71
00:03:01,122 --> 00:03:03,022
I could eat waffles for every meal.

72
00:03:04,492 --> 00:03:06,659
I could eat waffles for every meal.

73
00:03:06,661 --> 00:03:08,628
Not me. I'm more of a pancake man.

74
00:03:08,630 --> 00:03:12,165
Which is literally the only
thing I don't like about you.

75
00:03:12,167 --> 00:03:13,966
Hey, what do you say we take
the girls to Corky's tonight

76
00:03:13,968 --> 00:03:15,568
and settle the old waffle/pancake debate

77
00:03:15,570 --> 00:03:17,003
once and for all?

78
00:03:17,005 --> 00:03:18,237
You're pitching me a waffle dinner

79
00:03:18,239 --> 00:03:19,572
while eating a waffle breakfast?

80
00:03:19,574 --> 00:03:20,494
I may have a problem.

81
00:03:20,509 --> 00:03:22,341
And anyways,
you and I have plans tonight.

82
00:03:22,343 --> 00:03:23,290
Plans?

83
00:03:23,378 --> 00:03:24,995
The Japanese guys who
bought your invention

84
00:03:25,080 --> 00:03:27,046
invited us out for drinks
to celebrate the deal

85
00:03:27,048 --> 00:03:28,281
before they head back.

86
00:03:28,283 --> 00:03:29,715
Oh, I don't want to do that.

87
00:03:29,717 --> 00:03:31,384
I don't care what you want to do.

88
00:03:31,386 --> 00:03:33,019
It'll be good for you
to get out of my garage.

89
00:03:33,021 --> 00:03:34,253
Come on, I get out.

90
00:03:34,255 --> 00:03:36,722
Really? Name one place.

91
00:03:36,724 --> 00:03:38,791
Besides Corky's, my kitchen,

92
00:03:38,793 --> 00:03:41,327
or one of Abby's eight-year-old
friend's birthday parties.

93
00:03:41,329 --> 00:03:43,362
Fine. We'll go out tonight.

94
00:03:43,364 --> 00:03:45,398
Going out? Where to, Corky's?

95
00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:47,633
No. No, not Corky's.

96
00:03:47,635 --> 00:03:51,103
Darryl and I are celebrating
a special occasion.

97
00:03:51,105 --> 00:03:52,538
What's the special occasion?

98
00:03:52,540 --> 00:03:55,675
Oh, my first official date with Eleanor.

99
00:03:56,911 --> 00:03:58,978
Candlelight, the good plates.
you're really going all out.

100
00:03:58,980 --> 00:04:00,613
Yeah, when you've waited
your entire life

101
00:04:00,615 --> 00:04:02,682
to be with your one true love,
why hold back?

102
00:04:02,684 --> 00:04:05,651
Okay, Dad, slow your roll.

103
00:04:05,653 --> 00:04:08,154
Let's not go using the L word quite yet.

104
00:04:08,156 --> 00:04:09,722
Yes, you know what? You're right.

105
00:04:09,724 --> 00:04:11,490
I probably shouldn't
tell Eleanor I love her

106
00:04:11,492 --> 00:04:13,159
until we've finished our appetizers.

107
00:04:13,655 --> 00:04:15,228
Oh, come on, I'm kidding.

108
00:04:15,230 --> 00:04:18,097
No, you're not.
Dad, I know how your mind works.

109
00:04:18,099 --> 00:04:19,899
You get so enthusiastic about something

110
00:04:19,901 --> 00:04:22,101
that you immediately picture
it way in the future.

111
00:04:22,103 --> 00:04:24,036
That's great for an inventor.

112
00:04:24,038 --> 00:04:25,571
But when it comes to women, it's...

113
00:04:25,573 --> 00:04:27,907
- Off-putting?
- I was gonna say insane.

114
00:04:27,909 --> 00:04:30,610
Abby, you're worried over nothing.
I'll be cool.

115
00:04:30,612 --> 00:04:32,111
I mean, it's not like I've
done nothing but think about it

116
00:04:32,113 --> 00:04:33,746
since I was 14 years old.

117
00:04:48,596 --> 00:04:51,097
- Locker troubles?
- Yeah.

118
00:04:51,099 --> 00:04:52,932
Allow me.

119
00:04:52,934 --> 00:04:54,834
The Alex Riley Locker Opener 5000,

120
00:04:54,836 --> 00:04:56,068
patent pending.

121
00:05:02,343 --> 00:05:04,076
Wow. Thanks, Alex.

122
00:05:04,078 --> 00:05:06,245
Whoa. Is that your boyfriend?

123
00:05:06,247 --> 00:05:09,782
Yeah, I was kind of mad at him
when I did that.

124
00:05:09,784 --> 00:05:11,384
Why? I mean, what did he do?

125
00:05:11,386 --> 00:05:13,152
It's more like what he doesn't do.

126
00:05:13,154 --> 00:05:15,421
Like officially call me his girlfriend.

127
00:05:16,557 --> 00:05:19,058
Think I should break up with him?

128
00:05:19,060 --> 00:05:20,493
Look, that's your call.

129
00:05:20,495 --> 00:05:22,094
I just think you should be with someone

130
00:05:22,096 --> 00:05:23,996
who totally wants to be with you

131
00:05:23,998 --> 00:05:26,432
and can't stop thinking about you

132
00:05:26,434 --> 00:05:29,635
and when they see you,
it's like time stands still.

133
00:05:29,637 --> 00:05:33,572
Do you really think there's
someone out there for me like that?

134
00:05:33,574 --> 00:05:34,974
I'm positive.

135
00:05:38,913 --> 00:05:41,547
- I should get going.
- What do you have now?

136
00:05:41,549 --> 00:05:43,082
Lunch.

137
00:05:43,084 --> 00:05:44,583
You're gonna sit with Justin, right?

138
00:05:44,585 --> 00:05:47,453
No, he's got math. Is... is that okay?

139
00:05:47,455 --> 00:05:50,890
Oh, yeah. Yeah, you'll be fine.

140
00:05:55,730 --> 00:05:58,030
Ah. Another round?

141
00:05:58,032 --> 00:05:59,799
Shouldn't we wait for
Hideki and the guys?

142
00:05:59,801 --> 00:06:02,101
Well, in Japanese culture,
when your guests are late,

143
00:06:02,103 --> 00:06:04,470
it's considered an insult to not drink.

144
00:06:04,472 --> 00:06:06,038
I don't think that's a thing.

145
00:06:06,040 --> 00:06:07,840
Well, it's also traditional
while you wait

146
00:06:07,842 --> 00:06:09,942
to buy the cutest girl
next to you a cocktail.

147
00:06:09,944 --> 00:06:11,510
How about her?

148
00:06:14,048 --> 00:06:15,381
They were never coming, were they?

149
00:06:15,383 --> 00:06:16,849
What are you suggesting?

150
00:06:16,851 --> 00:06:18,484
That you used the Japanese businessmen

151
00:06:18,486 --> 00:06:20,252
as a ruse to get me out of my garage

152
00:06:20,254 --> 00:06:22,021
in the hopes that I would
meet some random lady

153
00:06:22,023 --> 00:06:23,189
who would have sex with
me for the first time

154
00:06:23,191 --> 00:06:24,657
since my divorce.

155
00:06:24,659 --> 00:06:25,725
Yeah, that's pretty much the plan.

156
00:06:25,727 --> 00:06:26,529
Yeah.

157
00:06:26,762 --> 00:06:29,729
Dude, I appreciate it,
but this really isn't my scene.

158
00:06:29,731 --> 00:06:32,231
Also, aren't we a little old for this?

159
00:06:32,233 --> 00:06:34,066
Yeah, I'll admit, I'm off my game

160
00:06:34,068 --> 00:06:36,702
after 15 years of marriage.

161
00:06:36,704 --> 00:06:38,504
You know,
I only found this place by Googling

162
00:06:38,506 --> 00:06:39,939
"how to get laid in Los Angeles."

163
00:06:40,421 --> 00:06:41,841
So should we just go home?

164
00:06:41,843 --> 00:06:44,276
Hell no. Okay, we are not too old

165
00:06:44,278 --> 00:06:46,145
to crush a night out on the town.

166
00:06:46,147 --> 00:06:47,546
I know just the place.

167
00:06:47,548 --> 00:06:49,815
Thank you. Better, huh?

168
00:06:49,817 --> 00:06:50,916
When you're right, you're right.

169
00:06:50,918 --> 00:06:53,586
Yeah. Hey, listen, man.

170
00:06:53,588 --> 00:06:55,154
I know I gotta get back out there,

171
00:06:55,156 --> 00:06:56,756
but I've just always
been a believer in fate

172
00:06:56,758 --> 00:06:58,190
with this kind of stuff, you know?

173
00:06:58,192 --> 00:06:59,592
When you're supposed to meet someone,

174
00:06:59,594 --> 00:07:01,227
fate will tell you.

175
00:07:01,229 --> 00:07:02,487
That's what you said when you met Sarah.

176
00:07:02,564 --> 00:07:04,830
Yeah, well, sometimes
fate can be a real dick.

177
00:07:04,832 --> 00:07:07,266
Yeah, I'll just have
an order of waffles, please.

178
00:07:10,438 --> 00:07:12,004
Looks like we're in the
night waffles section.

179
00:07:12,525 --> 00:07:14,673
Yeah. Yeah, looks like it.

180
00:07:14,675 --> 00:07:16,876
I'd have waffles for
every meal if I could.

181
00:07:23,051 --> 00:07:24,150
I'm Alex.

182
00:07:26,287 --> 00:07:27,653
- Lauren.
- Hi.

183
00:07:32,899 --> 00:07:34,432
Thought you had a math test this period.

184
00:07:34,434 --> 00:07:36,134
What's more important, a math test

185
00:07:36,136 --> 00:07:38,269
or making sure my little
bro sits at the right table

186
00:07:38,304 --> 00:07:39,556
- at lunch?
- A math test.

187
00:07:39,912 --> 00:07:40,881
It's not really close.

188
00:07:40,947 --> 00:07:43,213
Look, I'll go
as soon as we get you settled.

189
00:07:43,846 --> 00:07:44,781
How about over there?

190
00:07:44,783 --> 00:07:47,250
Are you kidding? That's the Ramp.

191
00:07:47,252 --> 00:07:50,554
Only the coolest of the
cool kids sit on the Ramp.

192
00:07:50,556 --> 00:07:52,656
But two of those tables
are completely empty.

193
00:07:52,658 --> 00:07:54,992
That's where the cool
kids keep their book bags.

194
00:07:54,994 --> 00:07:56,960
The further away from the Ramp you sit,

195
00:07:56,962 --> 00:07:58,395
the less popular you are.

196
00:07:58,397 --> 00:08:00,097
This is my table in
the middle right here.

197
00:08:00,099 --> 00:08:01,631
Fine, works for me.

198
00:08:01,633 --> 00:08:03,567
Wait, you can't just walk up to a table

199
00:08:03,569 --> 00:08:05,168
and take a seat.

200
00:08:05,170 --> 00:08:06,803
Come on, it's just a chair.
Hey, mind if I...

201
00:08:06,805 --> 00:08:08,638
Keep it moving, Chokey.

202
00:08:08,640 --> 00:08:10,507
Kids at this school are mean.

203
00:08:10,509 --> 00:08:11,472
Yeah.

204
00:08:11,731 --> 00:08:14,344
Wow, this lunch period's
even more crowded than mine.

205
00:08:14,346 --> 00:08:17,414
- You can sit with us.
- Great, thanks.

206
00:08:17,416 --> 00:08:19,149
Dude, you can't sit there.

207
00:08:19,151 --> 00:08:22,853
- Why?
- That's the Table of No Return.

208
00:08:22,855 --> 00:08:26,156
There's Shart, Nose Puke, Waldo...

209
00:08:26,158 --> 00:08:27,958
he wore a red-striped shirt once...

210
00:08:27,960 --> 00:08:30,160
and the biggest loser of them all,

211
00:08:30,162 --> 00:08:31,728
One-Nut.

212
00:08:31,730 --> 00:08:33,063
What's up, One-Nut?

213
00:08:34,066 --> 00:08:35,999
You may be Chokey now,

214
00:08:36,001 --> 00:08:37,834
but someday you're gonna get past that.

215
00:08:37,836 --> 00:08:39,536
For these kids, it's too late.

216
00:08:39,538 --> 00:08:41,705
But they're the only ones
who offered me a seat.

217
00:08:41,707 --> 00:08:45,275
Believe me, you're better off
sitting over there by yourself.

218
00:08:45,277 --> 00:08:46,810
Over there? But there's no table.

219
00:08:46,812 --> 00:08:49,346
I promise, little B, just do what I say,

220
00:08:49,348 --> 00:08:52,249
and someday you'll be eating
lunch at an actual table.

221
00:09:13,053 --> 00:09:14,638
- Hi.
- Hi.

222
00:09:14,640 --> 00:09:16,006
Uh, sorry. I was just enthralled

223
00:09:16,008 --> 00:09:17,507
with your, uh, um, necklace.

224
00:09:17,509 --> 00:09:19,342
Please.

225
00:09:19,344 --> 00:09:21,411
Is that, um, amethyst?

226
00:09:21,413 --> 00:09:22,846
Yes.

227
00:09:22,848 --> 00:09:24,481
And I wore it especially for you.

228
00:09:24,483 --> 00:09:26,883
- Did you, now?
- Well, I remember that

229
00:09:26,885 --> 00:09:28,952
you had quite a thing
for the Chicago Bulls.

230
00:09:28,954 --> 00:09:32,355
- And this is...
- Ha-ha, Lakers colors.

231
00:09:32,357 --> 00:09:34,291
You ready to go grab a bite?

232
00:09:34,293 --> 00:09:36,526
Actually...

233
00:09:36,528 --> 00:09:38,261
I thought we would, um...

234
00:09:38,263 --> 00:09:39,369
stay in.

235
00:09:42,901 --> 00:09:45,035
I thought that we were just
gonna have a casual dinner

236
00:09:45,037 --> 00:09:46,369
and catch up.

237
00:09:46,986 --> 00:09:48,038
My daughter warned me

238
00:09:48,040 --> 00:09:49,906
about going too fast too soon,

239
00:09:49,908 --> 00:09:53,076
but at our age, what's the point, huh?

240
00:09:53,078 --> 00:09:55,178
Well, Alex, I have something
that I need to tell you.

241
00:09:55,180 --> 00:09:57,048
Really? Because there's something
I've been wanting to tell you.

242
00:09:57,136 --> 00:09:58,628
I think I should say mine first.

243
00:09:58,651 --> 00:10:00,984
Eleanor, I want this. No more regrets,

244
00:10:00,986 --> 00:10:03,320
no more what-ifs,
no more words left unsaid.

245
00:10:03,322 --> 00:10:05,455
You are the woman for me,
and you need to know that.

246
00:10:05,457 --> 00:10:06,990
I have a boyfriend.

247
00:10:15,601 --> 00:10:17,734
Daddy, wanna play Horse?

248
00:10:17,736 --> 00:10:20,137
Aww, I'd love to, sweetie,
but I'm running a little late.

249
00:10:20,139 --> 00:10:21,605
I'm going out tonight.

250
00:10:21,607 --> 00:10:23,573
Twice in one week?

251
00:10:23,575 --> 00:10:24,908
I know, right?

252
00:10:24,910 --> 00:10:27,344
Believe it or not, Daddy has a date.

253
00:10:27,346 --> 00:10:30,013
Her name is Lauren, and,
uh, we met at Corky's,

254
00:10:30,015 --> 00:10:31,715
and we have a ton in common.

255
00:10:31,717 --> 00:10:34,351
We're both divorced.
We both dream of a world

256
00:10:34,353 --> 00:10:36,653
where waffles are a socially
accepted dinner food.

257
00:10:36,655 --> 00:10:38,588
You know, it's just our first date.

258
00:10:38,590 --> 00:10:39,856
It's not like it's anything serious,

259
00:10:39,858 --> 00:10:42,025
so just relax.

260
00:10:42,027 --> 00:10:43,593
Although of all the empty stools

261
00:10:43,595 --> 00:10:44,961
in all the diners in Los Angeles,

262
00:10:44,963 --> 00:10:47,097
she did pick the one next to me.

263
00:10:47,099 --> 00:10:49,933
Abby, sweetheart,
this could be a confusing time for you.

264
00:10:49,935 --> 00:10:52,269
And even though Daddy has
someone new in his life,

265
00:10:52,271 --> 00:10:54,304
I need you to know that no matter what,

266
00:10:54,306 --> 00:10:57,007
you will always be the
most important person

267
00:10:57,009 --> 00:10:58,441
in my world, okay?

268
00:10:58,443 --> 00:11:00,143
Okay.

269
00:11:01,446 --> 00:11:03,647
That's my brave little girl.

270
00:11:03,649 --> 00:11:06,249
- One slice of pizza, please.
- I'm out of pizza.

271
00:11:07,219 --> 00:11:08,485
What's this?

272
00:11:08,487 --> 00:11:10,854
A new recipe I call "not pizza."

273
00:11:10,856 --> 00:11:12,055
Next!

274
00:11:15,093 --> 00:11:16,927
Hey, Alex. Come sit up here.

275
00:11:16,929 --> 00:11:18,428
Okay, look, if you're planning

276
00:11:18,430 --> 00:11:20,197
on doing something embarrassing to me,

277
00:11:20,199 --> 00:11:21,598
it's going to be pretty
hard to beat the dance.

278
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:22,866
Are you kidding? Dude, that was epic.

279
00:11:22,868 --> 00:11:24,434
You almost kissed Nori Sterling.

280
00:11:24,436 --> 00:11:27,470
You're a legend, dude.
Come on, sit with us.

281
00:11:27,472 --> 00:11:29,005
Whoa.

282
00:11:29,007 --> 00:11:30,507
Yeah, that step's kind of wobbly.

283
00:11:30,509 --> 00:11:32,108
I have an invention that could fix that.

284
00:11:33,484 --> 00:11:34,444
Hilarious.

285
00:11:34,446 --> 00:11:37,080
Wasn't really a joke, but whatever.

286
00:11:38,150 --> 00:11:40,250
Beats sitting against that wall, huh?

287
00:11:40,252 --> 00:11:41,418
Yeah.

288
00:11:43,422 --> 00:11:45,422
I am so sorry.

289
00:11:45,424 --> 00:11:48,325
I had no idea you were sitting up here.

290
00:11:48,327 --> 00:11:50,460
Enjoy that.

291
00:11:50,462 --> 00:11:52,929
Welcome to the Ramp.

292
00:11:55,500 --> 00:11:58,068
So is picking up women in diners,

293
00:11:58,070 --> 00:11:59,803
like, a thing for you?

294
00:11:59,805 --> 00:12:01,972
Yeah. Yeah, no, I'm classy that way.

295
00:12:01,974 --> 00:12:04,641
Uh, diners, gas stations.

296
00:12:04,643 --> 00:12:06,776
I met my wife at a laundromat.

297
00:12:06,778 --> 00:12:09,913
Ex-wife. I'm sorry, uh...

298
00:12:10,682 --> 00:12:11,848
I'm very new to this.

299
00:12:11,850 --> 00:12:14,784
This is my first date since the divorce.

300
00:12:14,786 --> 00:12:17,687
- Mine too.
- It's kind of weird, huh?

301
00:12:17,689 --> 00:12:20,857
Yeah, yeah.

302
00:12:20,859 --> 00:12:21,958
But good weird.

303
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,962
Yeah. Good weird.

304
00:12:26,683 --> 00:12:27,731
I don't get it.

305
00:12:27,733 --> 00:12:31,401
If you're dating someone,
why'd you kiss me?

306
00:12:32,437 --> 00:12:35,472
Well, I didn't really
have a chance to tell you

307
00:12:35,474 --> 00:12:37,540
with you sweeping me up in your arms.

308
00:12:37,542 --> 00:12:39,843
Well, seemed to me you
were enjoying the sweeping.

309
00:12:39,845 --> 00:12:41,478
I'm not saying I didn't.

310
00:12:41,480 --> 00:12:43,613
And I'm sorry,
I guess I just got caught up

311
00:12:43,615 --> 00:12:45,448
in the moment, but the thing is,

312
00:12:45,450 --> 00:12:47,083
Richard and I have been seeing
each other for a while now.

313
00:12:47,085 --> 00:12:47,902
Is it serious?

314
00:12:47,953 --> 00:12:50,086
Well, that's the thing. I don't know.

315
00:12:50,088 --> 00:12:53,623
Every time I mention
anything about the future,

316
00:12:53,625 --> 00:12:55,392
he changes the subject.

317
00:12:55,394 --> 00:12:57,961
Well, you certainly have a type.

318
00:12:57,963 --> 00:12:59,396
What does that mean?

319
00:12:59,398 --> 00:13:01,031
Oh, even when we were kids,

320
00:13:01,033 --> 00:13:04,434
you were with guys who
had commitment issues.

321
00:13:04,436 --> 00:13:06,836
But you deserve better.

322
00:13:06,838 --> 00:13:09,773
You should be with someone who
totally wants to be with you,

323
00:13:09,775 --> 00:13:12,042
someone who can't stop
thinking about you,

324
00:13:12,044 --> 00:13:15,979
someone who, when they see you,
time stands still.

325
00:13:15,981 --> 00:13:19,616
Where have I heard that advice before?

326
00:13:20,986 --> 00:13:23,119
You know it was me, right?

327
00:13:27,326 --> 00:13:30,527
- Hey, Alex.
- Hey, kid I don't know.

328
00:13:30,529 --> 00:13:33,530
- What's up, Alex?
- Hey, guy.

329
00:13:33,532 --> 00:13:34,510
Hey, Alex.

330
00:13:34,600 --> 00:13:36,007
Heard you sat on the Ramp at lunch.

331
00:13:36,068 --> 00:13:37,967
Is that why everyone's
being so nice to me?

332
00:13:37,969 --> 00:13:38,972
Probably.

333
00:13:39,071 --> 00:13:40,770
People at this school
are really shallow.

334
00:13:40,772 --> 00:13:43,473
- A-Dog!
- Hey!

335
00:13:43,475 --> 00:13:46,009
So shallow.

336
00:13:46,011 --> 00:13:48,078
Hey, you took down the
pictures of your boyfriend?

337
00:13:48,080 --> 00:13:49,813
Ex-boyfriend.

338
00:13:49,815 --> 00:13:51,448
I thought a lot about what you said...

339
00:13:51,450 --> 00:13:52,816
how I deserve to be with someone

340
00:13:52,818 --> 00:13:54,617
who really wants to be with me.

341
00:13:54,619 --> 00:13:57,554
And I realized that
was never gonna be him.

342
00:13:57,556 --> 00:13:59,789
That is terrible news.

343
00:13:59,791 --> 00:14:02,158
Yes.

344
00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,160
Hey, little B, how was lunch?

345
00:14:04,162 --> 00:14:05,245
Crazy, actually.

346
00:14:05,297 --> 00:14:07,130
I sat on the Ramp,
and now I'm suddenly popular.

347
00:14:07,132 --> 00:14:08,898
Sweet. Best ten bucks I ever spent.

348
00:14:08,900 --> 00:14:10,900
Yeah, and I was just talking to Nori,
and she told me...

349
00:14:10,902 --> 00:14:12,435
Wait, I'm sorry, what about ten bucks?

350
00:14:12,437 --> 00:14:14,738
I thought I told you, I paid Dean $10

351
00:14:14,740 --> 00:14:17,874
to let you sit at his table this week.

352
00:14:17,876 --> 00:14:19,976
Oh, by the way,
can I borrow some money for lunch?

353
00:14:19,978 --> 00:14:23,580
I only had a ten, and... you know, Dean.

354
00:14:30,647 --> 00:14:32,180
Why are you driving like that?

355
00:14:32,182 --> 00:14:33,315
Didn't you convert this thing years ago?

356
00:14:33,317 --> 00:14:35,684
I... yeah, yeah. Old habit.

357
00:14:38,288 --> 00:14:39,721
Self-driving cars:

358
00:14:39,723 --> 00:14:41,156
one invention the world didn't need.

359
00:14:41,158 --> 00:14:43,124
Impressive. You've only been retired

360
00:14:43,126 --> 00:14:44,326
a little while, and you already have

361
00:14:44,328 --> 00:14:45,760
the cranky old man thing down.

362
00:14:45,762 --> 00:14:47,696
New message from Eleanor.

363
00:14:47,698 --> 00:14:49,698
Play message.

364
00:14:49,700 --> 00:14:52,801
Alex, I spoke to Richard,
and I need to talk to you

365
00:14:52,803 --> 00:14:53,802
as soon as you can.

366
00:14:55,706 --> 00:14:58,006
Okay, now, listen.
I know that in the past

367
00:14:58,008 --> 00:14:59,207
that you have accused
me of getting ahead...

368
00:14:59,209 --> 00:15:01,042
Dad, it is so on.

369
00:15:01,044 --> 00:15:02,610
That's what I was thinking.

370
00:15:02,612 --> 00:15:03,678
New route, Corky's Diner,

371
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:04,713
as fast as you can.

372
00:15:07,317 --> 00:15:10,452
Go ahead. Pretend you're driving.

373
00:15:13,434 --> 00:15:16,991
Hey, Casanova. Surprised to see you.

374
00:15:16,993 --> 00:15:18,993
Really? Why?

375
00:15:18,995 --> 00:15:21,262
Well, I assumed, with how well
things were going on your date,

376
00:15:21,264 --> 00:15:22,831
you'd be walk-of-shaming
it home in the morning.

377
00:15:23,071 --> 00:15:24,699
Yeah, well...

378
00:15:24,701 --> 00:15:27,102
Wait, how do you know my date went well?

379
00:15:27,903 --> 00:15:29,337
Well, this thing's kicked.

380
00:15:29,339 --> 00:15:31,106
Should we get another bottle?

381
00:15:31,108 --> 00:15:33,041
We could.

382
00:15:33,043 --> 00:15:36,845
Or we could have a
drink back at my place.

383
00:15:36,847 --> 00:15:38,513
Your place?

384
00:15:38,515 --> 00:15:40,548
Yes, that is definitely something

385
00:15:40,550 --> 00:15:42,283
I would be interested in.

386
00:15:42,285 --> 00:15:45,787
Um, let me just pay the
check as quickly as I can.

387
00:15:47,057 --> 00:15:50,225
Ugh, okay,
so I butt-dialed my entire date.

388
00:15:50,227 --> 00:15:52,060
Just the first hour,
till your battery ran out.

389
00:15:52,062 --> 00:15:54,095
Wait, you listened
to my date for an hour?

390
00:15:54,097 --> 00:15:56,398
I've been married for 15 years, okay?

391
00:15:56,400 --> 00:15:58,266
It's called living vicariously.

392
00:15:58,268 --> 00:15:59,934
So things seemed like they were
heading in the right direction.

393
00:15:59,936 --> 00:16:01,302
You guys hooked up, right?

394
00:16:01,304 --> 00:16:02,804
Wrong.

395
00:16:02,806 --> 00:16:04,339
Should I put my address in your phone?

396
00:16:04,341 --> 00:16:07,509
Oh, sure. Yeah, um...

397
00:16:07,511 --> 00:16:09,444
That's weird. My phone's dead.

398
00:16:09,446 --> 00:16:12,881
Oh. I can just write it on your hand.

399
00:16:12,883 --> 00:16:13,948
- Okay.
- Here.

400
00:16:23,827 --> 00:16:26,728
Um... you know what?

401
00:16:26,730 --> 00:16:29,164
I-I should go.

402
00:16:29,166 --> 00:16:32,133
Um, it was very nice dining with you.

403
00:16:32,135 --> 00:16:34,135
I hope to do it again soon.

404
00:16:36,173 --> 00:16:38,273
A firm handshake? Seriously?

405
00:16:38,275 --> 00:16:40,074
It has been six months since my divorce.

406
00:16:40,076 --> 00:16:42,210
You know, I thought I was ready,
but I am not.

407
00:16:42,212 --> 00:16:43,578
That's okay.

408
00:16:43,580 --> 00:16:44,768
Nobody's putting pressure on you.

409
00:16:44,848 --> 00:16:46,915
What? You tricked me into
going out to meet women.

410
00:16:46,917 --> 00:16:48,616
No, that was deception, not pressure.

411
00:16:48,618 --> 00:16:51,152
Ugh, what is wrong with me?

412
00:16:51,154 --> 00:16:53,288
Don't beat yourself up.

413
00:16:53,290 --> 00:16:54,656
You'll be ready when you're ready.

414
00:16:54,658 --> 00:16:58,460
And in the meantime, I got your back.

415
00:16:58,462 --> 00:17:00,028
Thanks, Darryl.

416
00:17:00,030 --> 00:17:02,297
I know that look. We are not hugging.

417
00:17:02,299 --> 00:17:05,533
How about a firm handshake?
I'm pretty good at those.

418
00:17:05,535 --> 00:17:06,868
Is that her address?

419
00:17:06,870 --> 00:17:08,303
It used to be her address, yeah.

420
00:17:08,305 --> 00:17:09,804
I don't want your sloppy seconds.

421
00:17:09,806 --> 00:17:12,273
Come on. Just put her there, please?

422
00:17:12,275 --> 00:17:13,374
Come in here.

423
00:17:14,444 --> 00:17:15,606
You wanna go grab some waffles?

424
00:17:15,613 --> 00:17:18,179
- Dude, you just ate.
- I definitely have a problem.

425
00:17:20,383 --> 00:17:23,318
Hey, Alex. Up here.

426
00:17:23,320 --> 00:17:24,819
No, thanks.

427
00:17:24,821 --> 00:17:26,488
I don't need to pay for my friends.

428
00:17:29,025 --> 00:17:30,525
Can I sit with you guys?

429
00:17:31,595 --> 00:17:34,095
Sure. Grab a seat.

430
00:17:34,965 --> 00:17:37,365
What was it like on the Ramp?

431
00:17:37,367 --> 00:17:39,801
Same as here. Just six inches higher.

432
00:17:41,872 --> 00:17:44,739
Maybe someday,
we'll get to sit up there.

433
00:17:45,876 --> 00:17:48,510
Why not make someday today?

434
00:17:49,412 --> 00:17:51,412
The Ramp? We can't sit on the Ramp.

435
00:17:51,414 --> 00:17:53,147
Why? 'Cause the cool kids say you can't?

436
00:17:53,149 --> 00:17:53,888
Yeah, of course.

437
00:17:53,984 --> 00:17:56,351
What other reason would there be?

438
00:17:56,353 --> 00:17:57,952
Look, okay,
I know I've only been at this school

439
00:17:57,954 --> 00:17:59,454
for a little while, but I've seen enough

440
00:17:59,456 --> 00:18:00,755
to know that it's messed up.

441
00:18:00,757 --> 00:18:02,657
I'm Chokey 'cause I choked once.

442
00:18:02,659 --> 00:18:04,959
You're Nose Puke because milk
came out of your nose once.

443
00:18:04,961 --> 00:18:06,861
- And you're Shart because you...
- It was more than once.

444
00:18:06,863 --> 00:18:08,029
Eww, really?

445
00:18:08,609 --> 00:18:11,599
And, One-Nut... I mean, seriously,
do you like being known as that?

446
00:18:11,601 --> 00:18:14,536
Not really.
Though it is better than Shart.

447
00:18:15,672 --> 00:18:17,972
The only reason they get away
with treating us like this

448
00:18:17,974 --> 00:18:19,201
is because we let them.

449
00:18:19,243 --> 00:18:22,310
I don't know about you,
but I'm done with all that.

450
00:18:22,312 --> 00:18:24,779
- Who's with me?
- I'm in.

451
00:18:24,781 --> 00:18:26,214
- Yeah.
- Same here.

452
00:18:26,216 --> 00:18:28,016
Me too.

453
00:18:28,018 --> 00:18:29,050
Follow me.

454
00:19:08,625 --> 00:19:12,627
- Trippy!
- Trippy, Trippy,

455
00:19:12,629 --> 00:19:16,631
Trippy, Trippy, Trippy, Trippy...

456
00:19:16,633 --> 00:19:18,700
Look on the bright side, little bro.

457
00:19:18,702 --> 00:19:21,235
You're not Chokey anymore.

458
00:19:21,237 --> 00:19:24,105
Oh, no. Not again.

459
00:19:24,107 --> 00:19:26,674
Trippy, Trippy, Trippy...

460
00:19:30,875 --> 00:19:32,708
Here's the thing about first steps.

461
00:19:33,410 --> 00:19:35,810
They don't always take
you where you want to go.

462
00:19:37,714 --> 00:19:39,281
Go get her, Dad.

463
00:19:43,153 --> 00:19:46,154
- Alex, you got my message.
- Loud and clear.

464
00:19:46,156 --> 00:19:47,622
I spoke to Richard.

465
00:19:47,624 --> 00:19:49,190
And you told him that you deserved to be

466
00:19:49,192 --> 00:19:50,559
with somebody who wants to be with you.

467
00:19:50,561 --> 00:19:53,028
- I did.
- And he said he couldn't commit.

468
00:19:53,030 --> 00:19:54,229
He asked me to marry him.

469
00:20:00,812 --> 00:20:03,471
But even when a first
step causes us to stumble,

470
00:20:03,473 --> 00:20:05,240
it doesn't mean it was wrong to take it.

471
00:20:05,562 --> 00:20:07,228
Mind if I sit down?

472
00:20:07,230 --> 00:20:09,464
Sure. Pull up some floor.

473
00:20:12,002 --> 00:20:14,202
I appreciate you trying
to change this place.

474
00:20:14,204 --> 00:20:17,839
Hey, I did change it.
Made it a million times worse.

475
00:20:17,841 --> 00:20:18,932
2 million.

476
00:20:21,912 --> 00:20:24,212
Look, just because they
won't use our real names

477
00:20:24,214 --> 00:20:25,847
doesn't mean we can't.

478
00:20:25,849 --> 00:20:27,282
I'm Alex.

479
00:20:27,284 --> 00:20:28,650
I'm Darryl.

480
00:20:28,652 --> 00:20:30,051
Nice to officially meet you, Darryl.

481
00:20:32,956 --> 00:20:34,589
Can we play Horse?

482
00:20:34,591 --> 00:20:37,125
No, honey. It's sleepy time.

483
00:20:38,995 --> 00:20:42,397
Even though it's important
to take first steps,

484
00:20:42,399 --> 00:20:44,532
sometimes it's okay to stand still.

485
00:20:45,835 --> 00:20:47,368
Score!

486
00:20:47,370 --> 00:20:50,271
Because it's in those moments...

487
00:20:50,273 --> 00:20:52,874
- H!
- Waffles are ready!

488
00:20:52,876 --> 00:20:55,843
...that we truly appreciate
what we have.
