01:30I'm coming with you to your weird house.
01:34No, you're getting on the bus where you belong.
01:37Be alone all summer, nerd.
01:39You're saying this only to make me go.
01:42I'm saying it because it's true.
01:44If that bus leaves to school and you're not on it, you're a great.
01:46No.
01:47Maybe not today.
01:48Maybe not tomorrow, but soon.
01:50And for the rest of your life.
01:54But what about us?
01:56We'll always have recess.
01:59I guess.
02:00See you on the bus, dumbass.
02:03No.
02:05No.
02:06No!
02:07No!
02:09Go, guys!
02:10Go!
02:11Go!
02:16No!
02:17Oh, no!
02:18Oh, gross!
02:26A sink is a sink.
02:27Your father is still on the toilet.
02:29So?
02:30Wait your turn.
02:31Are you mad?
02:32Do you know how many people I know could have lost their teeth, gumming their food with smiles
02:37like ducks?
02:38You know, I'm the only one from my class that can actually eat an apple without glue.
02:44I've got teeth like a zipper.
02:47Here.
02:48Put your teeth to use.
02:50You're up early.
02:52Nobody in this house has ever wanted to go to school.
02:55And you smell nice.
02:57Yeah.
02:58Ma'am, two squirts of Mike's Chacare Noir.
03:01Too much?
03:02Just enough.
03:03Smells like puberty to me.
03:05Pop!
03:06It's true.
03:07I mean, you're becoming a man now.
03:09Some interesting girls, hair popping up everywhere, a set of permanent teeth.
03:14Well, he still has one baby, too, so he's still my baby.
03:18Mary, can you help me with my tie?
03:21One of my babies.
03:22While I had shamed my old man at work, my brother filled him with pride.
03:27By working at the radio station to help pay for university, he was rebelling by slowly
03:32becoming my father.
03:33Bye.
03:35Bye.
03:35How was your day at work?
03:37Oh, you mean night?
03:38Yeah, I'm friggin' white.
03:39But finally getting the hang of the board.
03:42So, you think maybe I could come in for a day shift sometime?
03:45Even hop on air?
03:46Because I think I could...
03:46You've got bigger fish to fry than radio.
03:49First crits to go to university.
03:52Oh, that university still hasn't cashed that tuition check.
03:55Wish they'd hurry up and get the money out of the account.
03:57I'm terrified to buy anything.
03:59Oh, I wouldn't worry too much about that.
04:02All right, I'm heading to bed.
04:03Make sure you brush your teeth first.
04:05You remember Len Marshall, right?
04:07It turns out he's got false teeth.
04:09I mean, I never knew this, but it came out in conversation.
04:12No, and literally came out the dentures.
04:14Flew out onto the table.
04:17Turns out they belong to his dead wife.
04:19He's such a cheapskate that he wouldn't get a new set.
04:22Her jaw was bigger than his.
04:25She had a head like a melon.
04:26Night, Pop.
04:27Morning.
04:28Great.
04:29I'm up.
04:30Don't want to miss my bus.
04:31See ya!
04:32Oh, God.
04:35Puberty.
04:36No fox.
04:51Go get him.
04:53Get out of the way.
04:54But her brothers were there.
04:56New Year, same door.
04:59Where's Fox?
05:00Oh, I didn't hear that.
05:02The nerd wants to know where her sister is.
05:05Her sister's too hot for you.
05:07You think your own sister's hot?
05:09Yeah, but what the hell, man?
05:11What?
05:11No, gross.
05:13Wait.
05:14You don't know.
05:15For the first time in their lives, the Fox brothers knew something that someone else didn't.
05:19What?
05:20What is it?
05:22Where is she?
05:22You don't even know she got a boyfriend.
05:25And we're not gonna tell her.
05:27What?
05:29A boyfriend?
05:30I've been listening to a mixtape of lies.
05:33Unless they were the ones lying to me.
05:35Oh, I can't.
05:36I want the window.
05:37I want it.
05:38But chances were the Fox brothers weren't smart enough for that.
05:42Oh, my head.
05:43My head.
05:44Mark, hey, grade eight.
05:54I'm stoked.
05:56Hey.
05:57These are my new friends.
05:59They live by me.
06:01Isn't that crazy?
06:02New friends?
06:03Had everyone forgotten about me?
06:05Check it out.
06:05I can skateboard now.
06:09Ha!
06:12Want to try?
06:13No, thank you.
06:14I don't skate or ride a bike.
06:18I'm not into transit.
06:19That kid looks too young to drive.
06:35Millard McGinty.
06:37A 10th grader brazen enough to drive on a learner's permit without an adult present in the car.
06:42Wait.
06:43Are they dating?
06:55Shut up.
06:56I didn't do anything.
07:01Told ya.
07:02Is he ready to win?
07:14Mama?
07:19Mama?
07:20Yes, Michael F. Critch, Jr. is the name.
07:35Well, no, that can't be right.
07:37Because I registered him myself.
07:41Canceled?
07:43Are you sure?
07:46Well, thank you so much.
07:48You've been very helpful.
07:51That sneaky little shacker.
08:01Ow.
08:03Stop staring at my sister's desk, perv.
08:05While his sister had outgrown me, her brother had devolved,
08:09repeating the grade for the second time.
08:11Just pick on someone your own size.
08:14Oh, that's right, everyone. Your size is in high school.
08:17Just because I failed again, don't make you the same age as me.
08:20How are you doing?
08:23Attention, students. I have some unsettling news. I know that many of you expected that Sister Margaret would be your teacher this year.
08:33Sister Margaret, I am sorry to be the one to tell you this, but Sister Margaret is dead.
08:40But how?
08:42Metaphorically.
08:43She was killed by your new teacher, Ms. Fowler.
08:49Come in. Get it over with.
08:51Hello, children.
08:59Sister?
09:00I told you, Sister Margaret is gone.
09:04And in her place, we have...
09:06Ms. Fowler.
09:07Oh, yes, Mark.
09:11What is happening?
09:13Well, over the summer...
09:14Ms. Fowler renounced her vows.
09:17Vows of poverty, obedience, and chastity.
09:21For a spirit of harlotry has led them astray,
09:25and they have played the harlot,
09:27departing from their vows.
09:30Hosea 412.
09:31You dumped God?
09:34Wicked.
09:34Yes, child. It is most certainly wicked.
09:38Wicked means good, Sister.
09:40What's so good about this?
09:42You can't just love God in June and love somebody else in September.
09:45Well, I'm not in love with...
09:47Shut up.
09:48Maybe she just got lonely.
09:50Well, maybe God at least deserved a phone call.
09:56I mean a prayer.
09:59I see what you have done.
10:00If it were up to me, I'd cast you from the faculty like Lucifer from heaven.
10:04For the record, I still love Jesus, just not in that way.
10:10Take out your scribblers, children.
10:12As Fox had blossomed into womanhood,
10:14Sister Margaret had gone from nun to fun.
10:17Even a nun hit puberty before I did.
10:22Mom, what the hell?
10:23Rise and shine, Professor Pants on Fire.
10:25I called the school.
10:27I... I was gonna tell you.
10:29I swear, I-I tried, but...
10:32Dad.
10:33You're gonna break his heart.
10:36Look, I-I thought I wanted to leave, and then...
10:38I started working at the station, and...
10:41I like it.
10:42Like... like a lot.
10:43You entitled little arsehole.
10:46Why should you be the only one in the family who gets to do what he likes?
10:48Mom, for the first time in my life, I feel like I'm good at something.
10:52I mean...
10:53Please?
10:56I've never felt this way about anything before.
11:01You think you could at least give me a chance?
11:04You're gonna have to be the one to tell your father.
11:06Because if you're gonna be running around behind his back,
11:08you're gonna have to do it to his face.
11:10What's she doing?
11:26Len Marshall died.
11:28Guy with his wife's teeth?
11:30Yes.
11:30How did you know?
11:31Well, you told me this morning.
11:33I'm so sorry for your loss.
11:35He was my last living childhood friend.
11:40That's it.
11:41I'm an endangered species now.
11:45If you liked him so much,
11:46then why are you cutting him out of all your pictures?
11:48Because I can't stand to see dead eyes staring at me from the walls.
11:52When somebody dies, they're dead to me.
11:55Full stop.
11:56Do you want me to go to the funeral with you?
11:58No, I'm not going.
12:00Why not?
12:00Well, he's not coming to mind, is he?
12:02Oh.
12:03Funny.
12:03My best friends never get to go to each other's funeral.
12:07Pop acted like he was letting go,
12:09but his friend's death had left a hole bigger than even he could cut.
12:13Pop?
12:14Mm-hmm?
12:16What's the worst part about losing someone you love?
12:21Like?
12:27There's a difference, you know,
12:28between telling a story and sharing one.
12:31You know, I could tell you about the time that me and Len
12:34stole apples from a barrel when we were kids.
12:39But if Len was here,
12:41he'd probably argue,
12:43nah, they weren't apples, they were oranges.
12:45And there's just no one to reminisce with.
12:53They're not memories.
12:54They're just ghost stories now.
12:58You could make new memories.
13:02Change doesn't have to be the end.
13:04Not all your friends are gone.
13:06Yeah, you're right.
13:12Onwards.
13:14Onwards.
13:14Oh.
13:22Uh-huh.
13:27Am I doing it?
13:53How about now?
13:57At school, they vaccinated us for polio and measles.
14:00But if they really wanted to protect us, they would have vaccinated us for love.
14:04Oh, my God. Really?
14:07You are now Frenched.
14:09That means that you're mine now, and I'm yours.
14:17Take a picture. It lasts longer.
14:20What?
14:21Miller, don't.
14:24Stop staring at her.
14:25I wasn't. I'm not.
14:28Aw, he was her little boyfriend.
14:32He's still in love.
14:37True, did you go out with him?
14:42First love feels like it can never end.
14:46Until it does.
14:47No.
14:59What's wrong?
14:59Nothing. I'm late.
15:01Wait, what? Are you...
15:02The only way to know you really had love is to lose it.
15:08What was that for?
15:15Ah, bye.
15:17Always covering the angle.
15:33That's it. Perfect.
15:35Radio's in your blood, buddy.
15:37Can we throw it out?
15:38Yes, buddy.
15:39Yes.
15:43That's it now.
15:43Yeah.
15:47There you go.
15:48Give her.
15:53It's the POCM Morning Show.
15:56You're standing in Bethlehem longer, my love.
15:58It's with Dick Dunphy.
16:00Good God.
16:01What do you need university for anyway, man?
16:13That's for eggheads, brother.
16:15You belong in radio.
16:18Oh, thanks, Dick.
16:20Then hey, maybe I can be as good as you someday.
16:23You crazy prick.
16:26God forgive me.
16:27You got that boy ruined.
16:29What the hell do you know about university?
16:33Got a patch room tool.
16:34You remember how?
16:35Oh, yeah.
16:36Uh, Studio One.
16:38Mic up.
16:39Fade on.
16:39You bugger.
16:40You ruined his life.
16:41Jeez, bye, Mike.
16:42I never done nothing.
16:43The boy is good.
16:45Almost as good as me.
16:46And your mother knows about this?
16:47I'm a newsman.
16:48How the hell am I the last person on earth to find out my son's a dropout?
16:51And, Dick, you are nothing but a no-go-
16:54That there's a mute button.
16:57He wants to know where that is.
16:58Yeah.
17:06It's a nice day.
17:07Take your lunch outside.
17:09Get some fresh air.
17:10I could use a smoke.
17:14Only live once.
17:21Hey.
17:29So what?
17:31Do you hate me now?
17:34Yes.
17:36No.
17:37I don't know.
17:38I just thought that...
17:41What?
17:43Morning.
17:44I'd never even seen y'all summer, and summer was like another world.
17:53And then I just, I don't know.
17:59You know?
18:01No.
18:05There was nothing more to say.
18:07Whatever it was, it was gone.
18:09Like glass, a broken heart might one day be fixed, but you will always see the crack.
18:14You promised me you would tell him.
18:22I never should have let you work up there.
18:25You could still go to university.
18:27You could still be somebody.
18:29I don't need to go to university to be somebody, Dad.
18:31Who are you going to be, Dick Dunphy?
18:33Jesus, Mike.
18:34Even Dick Dunphy doesn't want to be Dick Dunphy.
18:37Did you ever think, even for a second, Dad, that I'm going to be like you?
18:42Well, we see the radio's nothing to be proud of.
18:45You know what?
18:46I'm proud of you.
18:49Even if you're not.
18:50What did you think?
19:17I would do at this moment
19:22When you're standing before me
19:27Well, it looks like I'm not the only one who's lost someone.
19:34Why can't things just stay the way they are?
19:37Have you ever heard the phrase, there's plenty more fish in the sea?
19:46Yeah.
19:46Well, now, a fish may love living in a pond, but if he just swam a little bit further, he'd find that there's a whole ocean out there.
19:56Unless, of course, something eats him.
19:58Well, that reminds me, do you know what's for supper?
20:03I'm not hungry.
20:04I've got a toothache.
20:07I've got a toothache.
20:08Really?
20:09Ooh.
20:10Let me have a look.
20:11Let me see.
20:12What?
20:13Let me see.
20:14Uh-oh.
20:15Oh, yeah.
20:16Your last baby tooth is loose.
20:17Go back.
20:18Go on.
20:19Back.
20:20Hang on.
20:21Ah!
20:22Got it.
20:23Well, looks like somebody's growing up.
20:25Onwards.
20:27Hmm.
20:28Onwards.
20:29Hmm.
20:46You never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory.
20:51moment until it becomes a memory.
20:58If only
20:59we knew what ones we would yearn
21:01for when we were older, then we
21:03could soak them in before they were gone
21:05forever.
21:07Maybe then we would have fewer
21:09regrets.
21:21It's over. Leave me alone.
21:28Are you kidding? Wait, wait, wait!
21:30Is this because they're a little geek?
21:31Freak off.
21:35He's dead.
21:36He's dead.
21:40What do you think
21:42I would give at this
21:46moment
21:46If you'd stay
21:49I'd subtract 20
21:51years
21:54from my life
21:55I'd fall
21:58down on my knees
22:00Kiss the
22:01ground that you walk on
22:04If I
22:06could just hold
22:08you again
22:09If I could just hold
22:24hold
22:26down on my knees
22:28Kiss the
22:30ground that you walk on
22:32baby
22:33If I could just hold
22:36you

22:38See you
22:39I'd
22:40know

22:41Yeah
