DAN:
I fell asleep. What time is it?

-Oh, it's only 4:15.
-Oh, thank God.

Um, I, uh...

better sneak you out
before anyone wakes up.

Mm.

Oh, man. Ow.

-My back is seizing up again.
-ANN: okay,

shh, you're gonna wake Dan.

-(Sean Sr. groans)
-(gasps) I think
I hear my parents.

I do not want to run
into your mother right now.

Okay. Out the back.

-Is there cheese in this?
-Oh, yeah, let's make sure

Bridget doesn't have any dairy.

She's gonna detonate,
and we'll all be

-in the blast radius.
-Shut up!

Shh!

Wait, don't close the-- door.

-(rattles doorknob)
-Sorry.

My fault. I, uh, gotta remember
to keep that thing unlocked.

Could you just walk
on your tiptoes, though?

-It's quieter.
-I'm in boots in the snow.

-(door opens)
-SEAN JR.: Are you kidding me?

-The prince wasn't even
in his quarters.
-Where the hell were you?

Uh, I couldn't sleep.
I just went for a walk.

Really? You went for a walk
at this hour?

SEAN JR.:
Hey, you're lucky
the neighborhood watch guys

didn't find you--
they have scary ideas.

You know, and they're all
carrying pepper spray now.

Talk to Steve down the block.

Still wears sunglasses.

Are you seeing someone?

I-I just went for a walk.

SEAN SR.: Listen,
you should get some sleep,

'cause you got that Dukakis kid
birthday party today.

-I know, I know.
-You should be nice
to them, too,

'cause if you are, they'll
bring you back next year.

It's a perennial.

-That's what I'm afraid of.
-Okay, attitude, my friend.

That's what sales is all about:
attitude.

SEAN JR.:
And smile, Dan.

For God's sakes, smile.
The kids love smiles.

SEAN SR.:
Ah-ah, listen to your brother.

-No, no.
-(indistinct shouting)

-♪ ♪
-You made me hurt my back again.

-(groaning)
-What are you doing?

I'm going to get coffee.

Well, I can get it for you.

Honey, I'm not an invalid,
all right?

No, you're a fire hazard.

Why don't you call the doctor?

I can gut this out.

Oh, God,
we need a female president.

-All clear!
-(video game gunfire)
-Okay, one of you overachievers

needs to go to the drugstore
for your father.

-BOTH: Not it.
-Okay, well, that sounds

like a tie,
so you're both going.

Okay, here's my credit card.

For pain medication only.

For your father.

-No incidentals.
-(mock gasp)

VIDEO GAME SOLDIER:
Fire in the hole!

I mean it.

(clicks tongue)

Uh, two cappuccinos, uh,
two of those bacon-and-egg guys,

and, uh...

-yeah, why not, a T-shirt.
-Yeah, yeah,

make it two T-shirts, please.

-And, oh, one of those,
-Ooh.

uh, Japanese tea sets.

-Nice.
-I feel like Mom would want me

-to have those.
-Yeah.

-(phone chimes)
-Mm. Mm-mm!

Oh, another text from Mom.

"ETA, question mark."

Just say there's a long line.

Won't answer. Um...

Oh, speaking of Mom, she was...

all over your late arrival
last night.

She called it "mysterious."

Can you keep a secret?

Not historically,
but I'll do my best.

I, uh...
(clears throat)

-I hooked up with Grace
last night.
-(gulps)

Mom's elderly friend?

Yeah.

In the rec room.

-Oh.
-(laughs)

God, Dan, that is
all kinds of forbidden.

-Is it-- is it serious?
-Oh, no.

Just kind of happened.
It's not a real thing.

You know what is a real thing?

Mom going full Chernobyl

when she finds out
you tagged her mentor.

Hey. Look at that.

Hubba-hubba.
Look at those hips.

What do you think,
real or fake or...

-Oh! Moodys!
-Nick!

-(chuckles): Nick. He's back.
-You're back.

Uh, yeah. I-I am back.
(chuckles)

-I never left!
-(laughs)

So, what are you guys up to?

Getting meds.
Our dad tweaked his back.

Oof, I've been there.
Made me do some soul-searching.

Yeah, I don't think
Dad is seeing this

as a personal growth
opportunity.

-Definitely not.
-(phone ringing)

Oh. Sorry,
that's my equity partner.

Money never sleepin', 24/7.

-Marco, talk to me.
-Things are escalating fast.

I just had a chat
with one Herman Johnson.

-Herman Johnson?
-Let's go!

Bad boy restauranteur
extraordinaire?

How did you get to him?

Turkish bath.

Everybody's vulnerable
in a towel.

He wants to talk Ojenz with us
tonight,

-sample the product.
-Buddy boy, this is huge.

It's bigger than huge, coz.

This is our moment, baby!

We need to make our fruit
brandy experience undeniable.

What you want to do?

Do we meet him
at a killer restaurant?

What are we, pikers? No.

I'll call my loft broker
back from the rave days.

Juliette and I
should be good by now.

Stop playing. Juliette-Juliette?

Man, tell her sad Romeo said,
"What's up?"

-Oh. Hi.
-Hi.

-Hi.
-What's up?

Do you know
what's going on with Dan?

-He's...
-Uh, no.

Would you tell me if you did?

(sucks air through teeth)
Probably not.

Yeah. All right.

So, uh, what about you?

-What's going on with you?
-Okay. (exhales)

Well, I know
you don't want to share,

because I'm the mom

and now I'm a therapist
with an office

and everything, but...

I just want you to know
that I see what's going on.

Divorce must be really painful.

Yeah, it is.

-(exhales)
-I'm so sorry.

I mean, my skin is telling me

I'm barely holding it together,
so...

Well, you don't have to hold it
together with me. Okay?

Can I just say...

(whispers): You're the smartest
person in this family.

-(laughs)
-Come on.
You're a respected lawyer

at one of the best firms
in the city.

And did I hear-- yes, I heard--

that you have a brownstone?

-(chuckles) I'm gonna kill you.
-I don't know.

I sent you a picture, though,
of the lighting fixture?

I love it.

(laughs)

You just be kind to yourself.

Okay?

You know, and don't look
for your self-worth

in multiple partners.

-Oh, this lesson isn't over?
-I mean, honestly. No.

Because I made a lot
of really bad sexual decisions.

-Oh, shit.
-Did I ever tell you
about Fort Lauderdale,

-1981?
-You actually did.
-(doorbell rings)

-Oh, somebody's here.
-It was way before your dad.

-I'll get it.
-Puerto Vallarta, '82.

-I'm okay, Mom.
-(scoffs) Why can't

-I just keep my mouth shut?
-I'll get it, guys!

(exhales)
Hey...

-Hey, Bridget.
-I didn't know you were,

-uh, coming.
-Yeah, well,
I heard your dad was hurting,

so I hiked over
with my massage gun.

-Got it.
-I figured I'd get
some steps in for Patagonia

and also help him out.
Kind of two birds

with one, um...

You have some--
you have something on your...

-face.
-Oh, yeah. It's just my, um...

It's b-beauty.
(chuckles)

Um, okay,
does he know you're coming?

DAN:
I told him! He's upstairs!

There you go.

The ascent continues.
(chuckles)

-Get after it. (chuckles) Okay.
-All right. Yeah.

(quietly):
Oh, my God.

-(door creaking)
-All right.

-(knocking)
-Hey, Sean, are you decent?

Hey, Nick. Come on in.

Sorry about this.

-Thanks for coming.
-Ooh. Yikes.

-I know.
-How the mighty have fallen.

Uh, yep.
(exhales)

-Not looking good, my friend.
-Oh, boy.

Well, it's a good thing that
the, uh, back sheriff's in town.

Uh, that's the thing that's
supposed to change my life?

-I might have oversold it a bit,
but... roll over.
-(vibrating)

-All right. (strained):
Give me a couple minutes.
-(beep, vibrating stops)

(groans)

Oh, boy.

Yeah, like at, uh,
an industrial loft or something.

We-we need to impress this guy.

-Arigato.
-BRIDGET: Hey.

Why didn't you tell me

-that Nick was coming over?
-Oh, uh,

Nick is coming over.

Oh, my God. I cannot deal.
I'm out of here.

Hold on a second, Juliette.
Bridget, will you do

-a sandwich run?
-No!

I've still got
Mom's credit card.

ANN:
You still have my credit card?

Uh, I-I put it back in the bowl.

-See, I just heard you.
-SEAN SR.: Dan,
you're gonna be late

-for the Dukakis party!
-I'm calling the Uber now!

No, don't call Uber.
I will drive you.

We can talk. Card.

I was hoping you forgot. Uh,
there may be some incidentals

on there.
It's all Dan.

Oh... Yeah.

-(groaning)
-Should feel it starting
to loosen up, huh?

It's loosening a little bit,
yeah.

-I'm gonna crank it up to eight.
-Oh.

I call this the Chewbacca level.

-(vibrating increases)
-Okay. Oh, yeah!

Oh, Chewbacca.

Oh. All right, we're doing this
for, like, an hour.

So, I'm not one to pry, but...

it does seem that you have a
little, eh, spring in your step.

I'm probably just, uh, excited
to be chronicling

-the lives of eight-year-olds.
-Yeah. Sure.

You don't have a special friend

or someone that... Oh, come on.

What happened to us? You used to
confide in me about everything.

(chuckles)
I don't remember that.

Well,
anyone that makes you happy

to be in Chicago makes me happy.

Thanks, Mom.

You're welcome.

Oh, come on. Who is it?

Oh. Oh.

I see-- I see kids. Over here.

-Thanks, Mom.
-You're welcome.

(grunting)

(children chattering
in distance)

Oh, honey, you forget your hat!

Ah. Thanks.

-(horn honks loudly)
-Mom!

Have fun! Love you!

(whooping, loud chatter)

Hey, Dan, I, uh...
I forgot to tell you,

but, uh, everyone's wearing
one of these.

-Yeah. Okay.
-I know-- I know it's silly,
but that's what Atlas wanted.

And, you know, you know,
he's the boss. So j--

-You'll just-- You know,
throw it on. I, you know...
-Great.

Smile. It's-- You know,
it's a children's party.

(chuckles softly)

(indistinct chatter)

Cora.

Ah.

Dan.

Hey. Uh...

-Hi.
-Hey. Uh...

Did not expect to see you here.

Yeah. You know, um,
jewelry business is slow,

so, you know, I-I picked up
some-some catering gigs.

Um, how have you been?

Ah, well, you know,
uh, living the dream.

-Got a baptism next week, so...
-Sorry.

DIMITRI:
Hey. Dan. (chuckles)

Can we get a picture of--
My-my little boy Atlas

is getting his face painted.
It's adorable.

He's-he's a-- he's a tiger.

-He's a tiger.
He's a little prince tiger.
-(chuckles)

You can see that I'm crying
on the inside, can't you?

Little bit, yeah.

DIMITRI:
Why do you grow up so fast?

SEAN SR.:
I think it's-it's looser.

-NICK: Yeah?
-Yeah.

Well, you know,
it'll tide you over for a bit,

but, uh, if you want to make
any real change,

you got to, uh...

Well, you know what,
it's too out there. Forget it.

-What?
-Well, no, I'm just saying,
some people,

like Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam

or big-wave surfer
Laird Hamilton,

have had success, uh,

talking to their injuries.

You want me to talk to my back?
(chuckles)

Not like that I don't.

You got to kind of be nice
to it,

reassuring.
You just got

to kind of jump in there.
You got to be like, "Hey, man."

Nice and-- "Hey, Back,
can I talk to you for a sec?

"Hey. Listen.

"Look, I'm sorry
that I made you sit

"in that law office chair
all those years,

"carrying the expectations
of my parents,

"society.

My bad, pal."

You hear how calm my voice is?

They say the tone of your voice
is more important

than the words.

I hear what you're saying,
and it sounds really...

stupid.

-Yeah.
-Sorry, pal.

-I'm not talking to my back.
-I feel

kind of embarrassed
that I did it.

No, that's okay. It's-- You...
(stammers)

Hey. The gun. That's my thing.

-We like the gun.
-Talking to it is your thing.

MARCO:
How much?
This looks expensive.

Ask me again after this moment

of awe...

Oh-ho-ho-kay!

Okay! This place is awesome!

-We are 100%
making a sale here tonight.
-It's good.

I just-- I don't know what
this venue says about Ojenz.

We're saying we're ballers.

Yeah, but he's a baller.
He's big time.

We need to, like,
make an impression.

We need to establish our brand.

-Right.
-So, what... what are we?

-Slovenia.
-Slovenia. Sure.

-The Alps.
-Okay.

-Monks.
-Monks?

Perfecting their brandy recipe
in secret over eight centuries.

-Yeah.
-That's a...
that-that's a thing.

-I'm inspired. We are truth.
-Mm.

We are truth.
We are authenticity.

We have a few hours
to transform this place.

What? More stuff?
How much is it gonna cost?

Ask me again
after the next moment of awe.

No, we don't have
unlimited funds, coz.

We... This is enough awe!

-(camera shutter clicking)

(groans)

You know, I just
cleaned up a cupcake

that some kid rubbed
into
the couch.

Do you know
they're seven bucks each, right?

So that means I'm getting paid
two whole cupcakes an hour?

Mm-hmm, but don't worry.

All this will change
after the revolution.

(Cora laughs)

Um...

So you decided
to stay in Chicago, huh?

Um, I don't know. Maybe.

Still kind of
figuring things out.

I cannot turn 30
in my parents' basement.

-(laughs)
-I got three months.

-Oh, I've got six.
-(cheering)

You know, I'm actually
thinking about teaching.

-Really?
-Yeah.

-What?
-I don't know.
-DIMITRI: Yo. Yo, Dan.

-(both laugh)
-Are you getting this? Stop...

Stop chatting. Get-get
over here. The magician guy's

-gonna make Atlas disappear.
-(whispers): I wish.

Oh. Where'd he go?

SEAN SR.:
So, you, uh... you still
get out on the ice?

Oh, no, I-I haven't really
played hockey since college.

Ah, that's a bummer, man.
You were so good.

It's selfishly one
of the reasons I wanted you

to end up with Bridget 'cause
if you guys had kids, with your

-speed gene and my hockey IQ...
-Yeah.

...we would have had a couple
of real Connor McDavids running

-around this house by now.
-Hey, don't look at me.

I kind of wanted to end up
with Bridget myself, so...

-And what happened with you two?
-Oh, nothing. We were so young.

And I, uh... I graduated,
and she went off to Dublin.

-Oh, yeah.
-And, uh, met some guy there.

God. Aidan.

-Yeah. Yeah.
-Yup, he came back with her.

And he spent an entire summer
in my living room

singing Taylor Swift songs
on his acoustic guitar.

You haven't heard Taylor Swift
'till you've heard it,

like, a simpering,
Irish brogue version.

-Ugh!
-Oh, that sounds
like a nightmare.

-Ah. (stammers)
-So, I want you to alternate

heat and ice with that bad...

-Hey!
-Hey!

-Hey!
-Didn't realize
you'd still be here.

He's still here.
What are you doing right now?

-Uh, nothing.
-That's perfect,
because you need to drive

Nick to the store
'cause he's got to get me

a bunch of, uh, stuff
for my back. What was it?

Um, there's fish oil,

-apple cider vinegar, and, uh...
-Yeah, turmeric.

-Sounds healthy.
-SEAN SR.: What do we have?

Well, uh,
'cause I need it, okay?

-So we have to go now?
-Yeah, yeah.

As soon as possible.

-Okay.
-SEAN SR.: Great.

Let's go, I guess. (chuckles)

Yup.

A text from Herman.
He's probably downstairs.

All right, guys, this is it.
This is it. Game faces.

-(singing continues)
-He's not coming.
-What?

I don't know.
He says something came up.

Damn it!
Sorry, Abbot.

Uh, a-apologies. You know what,
brothers? Take five.

Help yourself
to the charcuterie boards.

(inhales sharply)
Uh, what, uh, the hell?

So I thought you said
this guy was for real.

He is for real.

Clearly, he's not, though,
'cause he's not here.

-What are you saying?
-I'm saying you need to do

a bit more research
before I do all this work.

Whoa. I'm the one who paid for
every single one of these monks.

And they're surprisingly
good negotiators.

I lit every single candle.

You've got to spend money
to make money.

Says every dude
who's never made any money.

You-you...
You know what your problem is?

You lack vision, Marco.
You've always lacked vision.

Even in high school,

you had Ed Hardy shirts
and trucker caps.

Whoa. Whoa. Do not talk
about Ed like that, man.

You know he gave me a lot
of confidence.

Cousin, you are lucky

that I even hung out with you
in high school.

You didn't lift weights, bro.
You made robots.

You were a loser!

-No, you were a loser!

-It's Herman again.
-Okay, was he double canceling?

No. No, he says that he is
familiar with our product

-from his travels, he loves it.
-Oh. Okay.

He's sorry
he couldn't come tonight,

-and he's gonna order
a hundred cases.
-Wait. What?

Let me see that.

"...buy a hundred cases of O..."

-You did it!
-We
did it.

-We did do it, didn't we?
-Damn.

-I think he's worried about me.
-Should he be?

Yeah, uh,
his instincts are correct.

I've been
a little off the rails lately.

Oh, yeah?

Well, you know,
when I quit my corporate gig,

I was sort of in a freefall
myself, so I don't think

there's anything you could've
done that would shock me.

Oh, I think you're
underestimating my ability

-to do really stupid things.
-(laughs)

Oh, Bridget,
so hard on yourself.

You always have been.

Hey, I got an idea.

Why don't I buy you a smoothie?

Ah, we should probably
get back.

Come on, Bridget.
A little smoothie.

-Oh, the smoothie dance is back.
-Some fruit.

-The smoothie dance. Kale.
-No. I'm okay. I'm okay.

-Flaxseed.
-No.

-Carob chips?
I know you like those.
-(laughs) I-I can't.

I-I'm trying to be friends
with you,

but this is really hard.

Because I want to be
more than friends with you.

I really like you, Nick.

I might even still love you.

Um, and I just... I think
about us still being together.

Even when I was with Doug,
I did, and I'm....

I'm just...
I gonna stop talking,

but those are all the things
I'm feeling, so...

Hmm.

Your turn. (laughs)

I don't know what to say.

I... I'm with Jocelyn.

I know, and you don't have
to say anything.

I mean, I'm just...
(scoffs) Oh, my God.

I'm just being
totally ridiculous.

-No.
-And awkward.

I'm gonna take my dad's stuff,

-and I'm gonna go, okay?
-No, no, no, I...

Yeah, yeah. No,
this was great. Okay. Bye. Bye.

Unless-- I don't know--

you know,
if you felt the same way

and wanted to say something
to make me stay.

Um, all right.

Well, I'm gonna head...
I'm almost down to the aisle...

end of the aisle anyway,
so it's all good.

Yeah, you... stay there.

And, um,
still within earshot, though,

if you change anything.

All right,
I'm at the checkout line.

There's somebody ahead of me
in line if you, um, end up

realizing you love me.

Nick?

NICK:
Yeah?

Nothing. Just wanted to make
sure you were still there.

(groans):
Oh.

(sighs)
Ah.

(sighs, sniffles)

All mine.

Yup.

Mm.

Oh, that was a mistake.

Ow! Oh, my God.
Ah, ah, ah.

Holy... Ah.

Oh, Ann? Oh!

(groans) Oh, honey?

(groans)

Oh.

Aah. Oh, my God.

That's it.
Thanks for helping.

It was, uh,
it was really good to see you.

-Yeah, it really was.
-Yeah.

Hey, I still have, like, four
of your dinner plates at home.

I should get them to you.

Uh, no, that's okay.
My parents have plates.

Don't know if I told you this,
but I come from money.

(laughs)

-Well...
-Yup.

Uh, hopefully, I run into you
at the next demeaning gig?

-Sure.
-Oh, hey, your party favor.

-Can't leave without it.
-Oh, no, no, no,
you can have it.

-Thanks.
-Okay, uh, goodbye, I guess.

Bye.

(sighs)

(groans)
Hey, Back.

(groans)

It's, uh, Sean here. (sighs)

And, uh, I don't
talk to you, uh, much.

(sucks in through teeth)

But I want you to know...
(clears throat)

This trophy right here--
I-I couldn't have won this

without you. I...

No way. I-I know...
(exhales)

I take you for granted,
but not anymore.

From here on out,
I-I'm your best friend.

I love you, buddy.

You know, if you had spoken
like that to me, just once...

Never mind, you dope.
Help me up!

-You sure your buddy
that you love won't mind?
-Would you...?

All right, all right,
I'm coming.

-Are those my slippers?
-Well...

What are you doing?
I'm in pain here!

I'm trying to figure out
how I'm coming in here.

-All right. You know what?
-Aah! Ouch. Ouch.

I'm gonna get my moving belt.
I'm gonna get the belt.

-What?
-I don't want
to throw my back out.

Uh, you're gonna leave me here?

-I don't want
to throw my back out!
-Hurry up!

Thanks.

(sighs)

-GRACE (singsongy):
I've been waiting for you, Dan.
-(gasps)

You remembered
to leave the storm door open.

And in case you're wondering,
I'm naked.

Yeah. Wow. Um,

-look, um...
-Oh, God.

Yeah, um, I-I've been thinking

about a lot of stuff lately,
and, um...

You don't think
this is a good idea.

Yeah, I don't think so.

-I mean, I saw Cora today.
-Ah.

Yeah, my heart's still
kind of with her, and

I just don't want to do
that thing that I always do.

Hook up with your mom's friends?

Yeah, and there's that. Yeah.

Dan, I, um... (scoffs)

This was never the healthiest
idea in the first place.

I'm really sorry.

GRACE: I do wish
we had figured this out

-before I took my clothes off.
-W-Watch your step.

But insights come
when insights come.

Shh. My mom's
a really light sleeper.

(gasps)

Yes, she is.

-Mom...
-Hello, Daniel.
