(Text on screen)

(Astrid): I know you're upset karate starts

too early for us on Saturday,

but those were some very big feelings.

- I'm sorry.

- You don't have to apologize for having feelings.

You just need to make better choices

with how you deal with them.

(Astrid): Emotions.

We all have 'em, but most adults have strategies

and mental tools to handle them.

(James): Kids feel a lot of emotions,

but they don't have any tools.

So, you have to be the tools.

- Remember your strategies?

Wanna try screaming into a pillow?

(shrieks)

(phone pinging repeatedly) Close.

- I didn't mean to interrupt, but your phone is blowing up.

- Oh, my God. Leonard will not leave me alone.

This man has no boundaries.

I swear to God, if he calls me again,

(phone rings) I'm gonna...

(Astrid): We don't like to expose our kids

to our own emotional turmoil.

Hi, sweetheart.

So, Mommy's just gonna take a quick phone call. Okay?

Hello?

Leonard, I'm just gonna put you on hold for a sec.

(shouts): It's never enough!

(James): But somehow, they can sense it.

(theme music plays)

- It's got spirulina and a banana.

- No. - Yes, of course,

there's a banana. It's a superfood.

- Excuse me, Leonard, I--

- And about a cup of kefir before the spirulina.

- So, not to interrupt smoothie small talk, heh,

but I have an actual work question.

- Of course. What is it, Astrid?

- Uh, well, our polling software

is the free version so it's slow and it's... it's basic.

- Ah. - Hey, I think that's probably

mixed at this point. - Oh, and chia seeds.

- That's what it is. (sighs)

- So, you want new software.

- No, I want to just upgrade our current software.

Now, it's expensive, but I--

- Oh, we don't do expensive.

We're trying to cut the crap, remember?

It's the slogan. - Yeah, and this would uh,

actually cut a lot of the crap for me.

Make our jobs a lot easier. Right, Jean-Luc?

- Hmm? Oh, sorry, I was just putting

the smoothie recipe on my phone.

- You know what I'll do?

I'll consider considering it.

- Okay.

- You're welcome.

(banging)

- Hey. You ready? - Hey, yeah.

Hey, come on over. Uh, James, this is Chris.

Chris, James. (Chris): Oh, hi. Nice to meet you.

- Chris is gonna be joining us, if that's okay.

- Oh sure, yeah, yeah. As long as you like wings.

- Oh, Ennis and I go to this Asian fusion sports bar.

- You're gonna love the kimchi nachos.

- Uh... yeah, I don't love kimchi.

- Oh, they're just like regular nachos.

- Okay. - The exact same,

just kimchi all over them. - Yeah.

- Look, um, just as long as there's a Raptors game

on TV, I'm easy. I'm good to go.

- There definitely will be.

Unlike that time at karaoke.

- Yeah. (laughing)

Or no, more like, "Hey, get off there."

(both): "Or I'm crackin' skulls!"

(laughs)

- Get off, get off what?

I wasn't, okay, what? What happened?

- We were on something we weren't supposed to be

and a guy threatened to crack our skulls.

(Ennis laughs)

- Oh. I get it now.

How do you two know each other?

- Oh, we met while we were condo shopping.

Chris helped me move.

- Yeah, that's right. How do you know Ennis?

- How do I know Ennis? Uh, let's see.

Uh, went to university together, we lived together,

we worked together.

Got really into assault for five years.

That's a mobile app game called "Gods of Assault"

that we would play. You moved.

I didn't, why didn't you tell me you moved?

Why didn't-- (Chris gasps loudly)

- Oh. Hey, hey, you're okay. You're okay?

- Yeah. I'm sorry.

(Ennis): You okay? (Chris): Yeah.

(sighs) - Chris has wake apnea.

- He-- - Get some water.

- It's super rare. It's just really embarrassing.

(Ennis): No, it isn't. No, it isn't.

I told you this in Cancun. It is not embarrassing.

- Thanks, man. Thanks a lot. - Right, James?

- Right. It's normal.

- Hey, we better go, like right now

if we wanna get a table next to the koi pond.

(Ennis): That is where you wanna sit.

(Chris): Oh, it's a must. - Or I'm crackin' skulls!

- Yeah, yeah. - It's a different guy.

- No, you should've been there. It was awesome.

So, his name's James? (Ennis): Yeah, James.

(Chris): James, okay.

- This Chris guy is something else.

I mean, they just met, and all of a sudden,

him and Ennis are best buds.

- You're cute when you're jealous.

- I'm very cute and I'm not jealous.

He is annoying.

(snorts) "I have wake apnea." What?

- You want annoying?

Leonard shushed me with his hand.

- Oh, my God. Is he still alive?

- He lives. For now. - Ooh.

Look, they're out again. This is the third place tonight.

What, are they gonna rave all night?

- James, now that you and Ennis don't see each other every day,

you just have to try harder to connect.

Relationships take work.

(groans) - Yuck.

I hate working on relationships.

Not... You're my fave.

This, this one is a labor of love.

- Mm-hmm. - There we go.

All is forgiven.

- Ta-da!

- You brought me a cheese wheel. - Mm-hmm.

- How did you know? - It's Altenburger Ziegenkäse.

I bought it for my charcuterie circle and then I remembered,

I can't eat soft cheese. Duh!

Oh, this baby brain.

- How is the baby doing?! - Astrid, no!

- God, that felt good.

Maybe this thing could double as my stress ball.

- You're the breadwinner now, Astrid.

You need to find a healthy outlet for your anger

that doesn't involve my prosthetic belly.

- Yeah, I am. Stuffing it down with "Attenborough Zeitgeist."

- I'm serious.

Borrow my membership to the Oakwood Spa.

Oh, you'll love it. It's dark.

And everyone is in their bathing suits

sweating out their negativity.

Do the guided meditation where you look

deep into your neighbor's eyes and you just breathe.

(meditative music)

- Yeah, no thanks.

That sounds like a sex cult to me.

I'm gonna stick to screaming into a pillow, like Viv.

- Are you gonna eat all that cheese?

- What are you, a cop?

- Oh, my... God! - James. Did you hear?

Gero's stock is tanking. They laid off 1,200 employees

last quarter. Good thing we got off that train

before it jumped the tracks, hurled into the ocean,

and drowned everybody on board.

- Oh!

Good to see you, Marla.

- Hey, look at this guy.

- She's in a good mood. - What are you doin' here?

What's up? - We had such a great time

last night, I thought uh, you know, we could do it again.

- Yeah, me too. You mean now?

You wanna hang out like, now?

I don't think I can hang out now.

- No.

What about Saturday? - Oh, let me check.

- Yeah, let's check schedules. - Saturday. I cannot Saturday.

I have a date.

What about the following Thursday?

- Oh, Astrid's got a work thing.

I gotta take care of the kids. - Can we do this over text?

- Hmm, no, no. You know what's good?

Tonight. That's a night, right?

- No, I can't do tonight. I got dodgeball.

We're this close to the playoffs

and we're already down players as it is.

- Need subs? - Are you serious?

- Of course!

I've always got your back, buddy.

- It's just that you once called dodgeball

"dork tag for sad sacks."

(laughs) - Classic us.

Ribbing each other. Remembering it for a long time.

- Yeah. - Oh yeah.

(dance music playing)

(Felix): Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Ah-ah. Oh, oh.

- Felix, Mommy's trying to work here.

Can you take that dance party upstairs?

- I can't hear my music upstairs.

(Astrid): No matter how much you love your kids,

they can make you lose your cool.

(James): You don't wanna blow up,

but you can feel the pressure building.

(buzzer sounding)

- Stay with me you fu-nky machine.

- Ooh, that's not what you were going to say.

(fake laughs)

(Astrid): You try to hold it in,

but the smallest, super annoying thing

might make you explode.

Felix! I asked you to be careful.

Don't dance by my desk.

- Actually, it's the dining room table, not a desk.

(alarm blaring)

(James): So, you gotta find a way to cool down

before things go nuclear.

(blaring intensifies)

- Hey, Dawn, it's your sister Astrid Berney.

Hi. I was just wondering if that cult sex spa offer

was still on the table for me?

- It just sort of occurred to me that like,

breakdancing is very similar to dodgeball.

- Hey! Who's ready to have a ball?

- What did you say? - It's a, a pun. Never mind.

People don't like puns.

So, I was trying to learn the, um, rules to this game.

- Uh, this is James, by the way, everybody.

- Hi, guys. - Hey, everybody,

your sub is here. And he brought subs.

- Subs from the sub. That is genius! Yes!

(James): Chris, he's, he's subbing too?

- Yeah, yeah. We had another guy drop out.

He's wanted to play for a while actually, so--

- Hey, James, heads-up.

- But, I thought-- - Amazing.

That was a sick throw, bro. See? Dude's a natural.

What else you got in there? Let's see this.

- Meatball subs, we got turkey subs,

we got all of the... all the types.

I threw the meatball sub over there.

r)!

- Whoa, whoa, whoa.

- Oh!

- Hey, don't turn your back. James, watch out.

- Oh. Oh.

(shouting indistinctly)

Go, go, go!

(both): Yeah!

(Chris grunts)

(shouting)

- Very nice, very nice, very nice.

(buzzer honks) (whistle blowing)

- Oh, oh! (ball thuds)

(grunting)

(Ennis and Chris grunting) - Very nice.

(groaning)

(cheering)

- That is so good.

(grunting)

(grunting)

- Uh, oh!

- Ah! - We won!

(buzzer sounding)

We won! - Huh?

- He got the ball before it hit the ground. We win!

(team cheering) - We won.

Is that what's happening?

(Ennis): Oh, what a feeling.

Amazing! Astonishing dodge out there.

Let's go!

Oh, we did it. Good work!

- We gotta go celebrate, right? - You're damn right we do.

Holy cow. - Let's go.

- Oh, do you wanna go to that new bar

by our condo where the inside looks exactly like the House of Commons?

- Yes. - Yeah!

- That's all the way across town.

Is there anything maybe closer?

- Oh. I, I mean, that's okay.

We, we can go somewhere closer. I guess.

(Ennis): Wanna go back to that kimchi nacho place?

- You know what? It's fine.

Yeah, you guys go. - You sure?

- Next time. - Next time. I love that.

Next time, man. - Okay.

- Yeah, cool.

You all right?

- Yeah. - Okay, great!

Oh, man.

I hope they still have wigs.

- Oh, my God.

(rhythmic music)

- What's going on? - Well, I was thinking

about your little outburst at work the other day.

- That's a weird way to say reasonable work request.

- I think you're right, Astrid. You need a boost around here.

So, I got you something. - You got the software.

That's amazing. - Even better.

A brand new espresso machine.

So, now you'll have the energy you need

to power through the day. - I have the energy, mostly.

(machine hissing) What I don't have

are the proper tools to do my job when...

Can that wait?

- You'll have to tacit your speech for a moment.

I can't hear you over the amazing new espresso machine.

This should be a calm workplace.

- It's dope, isn't it?

- It really is dope, Jean-Luc.

(tense music)

There you go, Astrid.

Relax and have a nice drink, Astrid.

And enjoy. - Thank you, Leonard.

For...

Thanks.

- We blew Astrid away. - Yeah.

(Astrid): You're right,

Mommy should bite his finger right off.

(growls)

- What do you even do at a spa anyway?

- Uh, you just lie there quietly

and sip water with cucumbers in it.

- Sounds boring. - Yeah, I certainly hope so.

Um, hey, so I can drop you off at the game,

but I don't know what time I'll be finished,

so can you catch a ride home? - Mm-hmm. Sounds fun.

- No, you're obsessing about Chris!

- No, that's, I'm-- - Give me this.

- That's a research for a thing I'm researching.

- Oh, Chris with a dog. Chris in front of the CN Tower.

Chris spreading the word on wake apnea?

- Am I crazy? That's not, that's not a thing. Right?

- Stop stalking and start talking.

It's good advice because we're grown-ups.

- Hello, hello. - Cutting it kinda close, Mom.

- I came straight from my foraging class.

You want on time? Pay for a babysitter.

Who wants to eat some of the stuff I found?

(Viv shrieks)

- Um, tread lightly. Viv is in a mood.

- Mm-hmm. She's uh, still angry about karate.

- Good. You remember the pharmacist

whose cat had dementia and no tail?

Well, she never got mad.

And then one day she was stuck in traffic for two hours.

Died of an aneurysm.

The point is, it's healthy to express emotions.

- Okay, well, make sure Viv doesn't express emotions

on anything breakable like uh, I don't know,

the lamp or Morris.

- Oh. Oh.

Oh, my God. Who am I kidding?

Ew.

(door closes)

- What time is your cult massage?

- It's not for another hour.

Can I uh, watch you play a sport?

- Ooh, James.

James' wife.

Guess you heard how great we are and came to watch?

- Hi, my name is Astrid.

- Hey, uh, so this is a strange one.

The Young and the Breathless don't have enough players

to field a whole team. Two of them just dropped out

so that means that they forfeit and we're in the finals.

- What? Are you kidding me?

- It's kind of anticlimactic but--

- James, you made it to the finals

without hitting a single opponent.

That's... that's honestly crazy. - Well.

- Well, it's not really crazy-- - No, no.

No, no, it is. Trust me.

(tense music)

(espresso machine hissing)

(indistinct chatter)

(Chris): What? What happened?

(buzzer sounding)

- Did the Young and the Breathless need a sub?

- Whoo, I think they need two.

- Hey, Ennis, you didn't make the finals yet.

'Cause the Young and the Breathless, ooh, they've got...

(James): Here, I got you, I can help you.

Sorry, I think it's your ring. Your ring.

- The Young and the Breathless have got a full team.

(players): No way?! Alright! Come on! Yes!

(cheering)

- You ready for this?

- You have no idea.

(whistle blowing)

(Astrid screams)

(heavy metal music)

(screaming)

(grunting) - Oh, nice.

- Give me that.

(shouting)

You are out! (laughing)

(buzzer sounding)

(grunting)

(Ennis): Nice deflection.

(laughing)

(buzzer sounding) - Die!

(buzzer sounding) (Astrid growling)

You're out! - Oh! Come on!

- Whoa! No, hey, hey! He's out!

Ref, come on! - Not fast enough.

(buzzer sounding) (Ennis): We're tied up

and it's just the four of us. (Chris): How poetic.

(Ennis): I wouldn't.

You know, it didn't have to be like this, James.

You could be winning with us right now.

- I like this team better.

Gonna hold that ball all day, Ennis?

Come on. Which one of us you gonna tag?

- You know what?

Maybe I'm gonna tag... nobody.

(Chris gasps) Chris!

(grunting)

- Yes! - He has wake apnea!

(laughing)

- I'm so embarrassed. - No, no.

It's not embarrassing.

- Chris is out.

No!

- Yes!

- No!

- Oh! James!

Is... is Ennis out?

Did we just win?

(whistle blowing)

(buzzer sounding)

- We won. Ha! You were amazing.

- Yeah!

(laughing)

(cheering)

(Chris): That was so fun.

- I don't know if I would call that fun.

- Oh, no, that was awesome. I'm gonna play next year.

(Ennis): Yeah, yeah, that's great.

Yeah, yeah.

I'll, I'll meet ya down there.

- Okay. Yeah. Meet ya down there.

- What the hell was that?

We're about to make our first finals, ever,

as a team, and you ruined it!

- Oh, you don't like it when somebody takes something

that's really important to you and then destroys it?

- No! Is that not clear?

- You moved and you didn't even tell me.

I don't know where you live anymore.

- I moved? You want me to show you on a map?

I can airdrop you the details. Is that what this is about?

- You don't even remember playing Gods of Assault with me?

- Holy! - We would assault so hard!

And now, I never hear from you

because you're busy Cancun-ing with Chris.

- You never hear from me? You got married.

And then you disappeared. And then you went

and made three brand new best friends.

- You mean my kids? - See?

You can't help but throw 'em in my face.

Would it kill you to make me your, your home screen wallpaper

once in a while?

- I'm trapped at home all day, every day.

I can't get a new job.

I'm feeling just a little left behind.

I think, I dunno, I miss you.

(gentle music plays)

- I miss you, too.

But you can't get mad when I make new friends.

I mean, I'm extremely charming and charismatic,

and I have hypnotic eyes and Seussian curls.

- You are very popular. (sighing)

- But I can't make another old friend.

Those are the best kind of friends there are.

(door opens and closes)

Come here, you.

(laughing)

(Astrid): Oh-ho!

Caught you losers sharing your feelings.

- What? So?

- Don't you have a massage you have to go to?

- No, I don't need that trash.

Crushing your team is the only massage I need.

(clicks tongue)

You know!

(Viv shrieking)

Good grip on ya. Okay.

- The pillows aren't working. - Yeah.

I think you need a constructive way

to get all your feelings out.

Like, like whipping a ball at someone

or kicking the crap outta something.

- You said a toilet word. - I did.

How would you like to go back to karate?

- But you said the Berneys don't get up early on Saturdays.

- They don't. But Nanimas do.

What do you say?

- I say, yes!

- Yes!

(Astrid): Emotions can be overwhelming for kids.

Happiness, anger, fear, they experience them all so fully.

(James): Navigating those feelings

can be complicated and scary, not just for kids, for everyone.

(Astrid): But we've learned something from our kids.

(James): How to cheat at Go Fish.

(Astrid): James, oh, my God, get over it!

(James): I want to. Help me.

(Astrid): Yes. We've learned it's important

to feel your feelings.

And share them with the ones you love.

(cheering)

(ukulele strums)

(upbeat disco music plays)

- Ha!

Hoo!

Hoo!

- Mom, I'm trying to do homework.

- Sorry. Sorry. So sorry.

- I'm trying to do homework. I already told you.

- So sorry. Yes, please focus.

- Okay, we get it.

I was bugging you. We know.

But come on, I'm trying to do homework.

- Just dancin'. Having a good time.
