Right.

So, where do we start?

I don't know, boss. You tell me.

What's that?

It's a simple way to stop
avoiding trauma reminders

that get you triggered.

I avoid trauma reminders?
My whole work is required,

- I'm talking about triggers

that make your distress levels unmanageable

Well, whatever makes you angry.

JAMES: You a pet person?

PAM: Uh, we have a dog.

JAMES: Yeah, I had a chicken
named Henrietta Lafowl.

The world's first daredevil chicken.

- Dad, Can you loosen the back?
- I used to know,

'cause all chickens...
What do you need me to do?

- Just loosen the back part.
- Okay. One sec.

So, I used to... I had this chicken,

used to put her on my head
and I'd do these cartwheels,

and she'd run from my head to my butt,

from my head to my butt
over and over like that.

'Cause I spent a lot of time with chickens,

- you know, in the rodeo?
- Dad, loosen it.

Had another trick where I put
the chicken on top of my head...

here, I found it... and I'd run this little

- electrical wire
- Here.

down my sleeve to her,

put a little KFC bucket out there,

light it on fire for drama,
and I'd hit that charge

and Henrietta'd fly off of my head

and land in that bucket. Hey-o!

Crowd ate it up, I'm telling
you. It was a big deal.

- (laughs): Wow.
- Yeah, it was good.

Once opened for Stevie Nicks.

Ow!

Spent a lot of time with chickens.

And in all that time you

You want me to do that

Hey, I like your jellies.

Hey.

JAMES: So, Calvin is

a big school, I know
that. They got a good, uh,

- basketball program.
- They do.

That's an expensive school, isn't it?

I've had a little help.

Got to. How the fuck'd you swing that, man?

Shit, Mexican, come from poverty...

got to be hard as fuck to get in there.

- Isn't it?
- Lot of hard work.

You had some kind of what,
Spanish grant or something?

- Hey, you good?
- I'm good, Otis, thank you.

- Hey, you got the ketchup?
- Hey, can I bum a smoke?

JAMES: Yep.

- Hang on to your butts.
- Thank you.

Love that kid.

He's a... he's a good kid.

(chuckles): Yes, sir.

And I-I think that's why, uh,

the Big Brother program is
so important... it's having

the one voice that's gonna listen to you.

- Sure, I bet.
- The only person

- that's gonna be there for you.
- I bet.

So, this father figure.

He was a strong voice, and
now I have a chance to...

- to pay it forward,
- Sure.

help out when I can.

- Yeah.
- You know.

Yeah, I appreciate you, Tom.

I got to say, man, I do appreciate you.

I know my son appreciates you also.

- That's good to hear.
- What you're doing. Yeah.

He likes you, man. I
can see it on his face.

Yeah.

You know, I bet if you went over there

and asked that boy right
now who he wants to be

when he grows up, he wouldn't say me.

- No?
- No.

(lighter clicks)

Why is that?

I don't know.

Would he say you, Tom?

Nah. It's not about that for me, James.

- What's it about for you?
- I mean, it's giving back.

Letting somebody know
you're there for them.

- Yeah.
- It's being of service.

- Yeah.
- You know?

Yeah, no, I know about that, yeah.

'Cause I do a little bit
of service myself, you know.

- I got about four years sober.
- That's good.

- (chuckles): Is it good?
- It's great.

- It is great, isn't it?
- Yeah.

- Yeah.
- Lot... I've seen a lot of lives get ruined.

Oh, have you?

Oh, boy.

It's tough.

- Yeah.
- I can only imagine.

- One day at a time, man.
- Hmm.

I don't know what you heard about me, Tom,

but I know what you haven't heard about me.

See, what you haven't
heard about me is that, uh,

if I catch you around my son again

in any capacity whatsoever,
I'm gonna wind up skull-fucking

your well-adjusted twin

Now, you're gonna take

your way into the hug circle.

Come on.

Otis, would you please join us over here.

We all know what to do
in the hug circle, right?

This is a feeling that you can have

anywhere you are.

You can always come back here.

To this pool.

To this circle.

To this feeling.

Hugging yourself releases
the cuddle hormone.

Can you feel that?

And that's a tool we
can use wherever we are.

You can't do this everywhere.

Right?

You can, actually.

You can't do this

in a car on the freeway or in court.

Well, maybe if you used this tool,

you wouldn't end up in court.

Isn't hugging yourself
like tickling yourself?

Like, you can't... you
can't tickle yourself?

PERCY: Well, my shit feel good.

- (laughter)
- I'm releasing all them hormones.

Percy, you might be too good at this.

It's my fourth time in rehab.

And I tried this in court.

- That's how I ended up here.
- (laughter)

- ALEC: Hey, Otis.
- (laughs): What do you mean?

- Aw, shit. Holla at you.
- All right, see you.

I have a suggestion.

I think maybe you should
go out into the woods

and scream as loud as you can.

Just go out there alone and do that.

Are you fucking with me?

Let me know how it went.

- They got you doing exposure?
- Yeah.

Yeah, I got PTSD.

- Get the fuck out of here.
- (chuckles)

I thought only soldiers and
black people got that shit.

I don't know. I guess...

I just know I'm stuck
here, and these people...

wasting my fucking time.

I don't have time for this.

The fuck you know about time? (chuckles)

My cousin got eight years in prison. Eight.

They got a nigga here
knitting a motherfucking scarf

and listening to you bitch about time.

- Right.
- Look at this place.

My cousin saw me, he would
beat my motherfuckin' ass.

Yeah, you should send him a scarf.

"Hey, stay warm, nigga."

TV DAD: Thank you, Royston.

- This is splendid.
- (mocking): "This is splendid."

What has gotten into you, son?

Dad?

I need you to hear me.

I'm gonna say some
things that I got to say,

and I need you to not
interrupt me or run off.

Okay?

I was thinking.

The other day when we were talking about...

Tom and the rodeo, and I was thinking

what other happy memories
I had of you and me, and...

and I-I swear to God...

I've always been waiting for
you to act like a real dad.

You haven't done that one time.

I've missed you for a long time, Dad.

TV DAD: I love you, Jeff.

I love you more than words can say.

What?

- What?
- (TV show continues)

- Ow.
- Otis...

hey, what's wrong with
you? Go pick that up.

OTIS (on TV): I'll kick your butt.

No, I'm the funny one around here.

You stand up, I'm gonna
kick your butt right now.

- What are you crying about?
- I'm not crying.

Otis.

Tom.

- Aw, fuck.
- He still fixed our passports

after you threatened to
face-fuck his dead family.

- Yeah, well...
- You're a sex offender.

- You know, he kept pushing.
- He's a federal employee.

- Okay...
- He's a grown man, he's gonna figure...

Shut the fuck up!

Don't talk to me like that, Otis.

Listen to me and let me talk!

Lower your voice, Otis.

I want you to be a better dad to me.

- All right.
- So I want you to promise me...

put your pinky out right now...
and I want you to promise me

that you're gonna be better to me...

Yeah, I'll be better to you.

This is not a joke.

This is not one of your
fucking stupid little jokes.

Yeah, what is this, man?

End of our agreement.

It's the end of our agreement?

I'll tell you what, I get it, man.

I hear you. You want a better father.

A father who teaches you lessons and stuff.

Yeah?

And you deserve one.

You do.

So...

(sighs) I'm gonna try harder.

We're gonna start fresh
right here, right now.

Lesson number one.

All smart guys know...

if you can hit your boss once...

(slap)

- (sobbing)
- ...then you can hit him twice.

- Don't talk to me like that.
- Go away!

Gladly, pal.
