00:09I've been calling and calling, and Tristan still won't respond to me.
00:12So I'm sending my child in to talk to her for me.
00:15I know. It's like all my gargoyles are gone.
00:19Ooh, ooh!
00:26She doesn't want to talk to you.
00:28That's all she said?
00:28You were in there for a half hour.
00:30She likes talking to me.
00:31Did you tell her she can call me any time, or text me, or come over?
00:35That I'll do whatever she asks to make it better?
00:37Yeah, I said you were a desperate lunatic.
00:39Did she like that?
00:40Dad!
00:40Tell me exactly what she said!
00:42She wants you to deal with this mess you made.
00:44So do I.
00:45Their anniversary is tomorrow.
00:47We can still go.
00:48Then we can both be in your family.
00:53I can't remember a nicer Christmas.
00:55I love all my presents.
00:57It's great.
00:58Reese, the amazing dinner you made, cleaning everything by yourself, all your presents,
01:03so thoughtful and generous.
01:05You really made this the best Christmas we've ever had.
01:07Oh, so I'm the reason every other Christmas was crap?
01:10Huh?
01:11No, I...
01:12Yes, Reese, you're the reason why every other Christmas was crap.
01:14Well, look who blames everyone but himself, as usual.
01:17Hey, you can't criticize anyone.
01:19Nice drugstore perfume, Richie Rich.
01:21Better than a donation was made in your name.
01:23I mean, how am I supposed to turn that in for cash?
01:25Well, at least we spelled your name right...
01:26Jamie!
01:27Who gets black socks at Christmas?
01:28Why did you have to ruin this?
01:31Thanks for dragging me here.
01:32Now I hate Christmas.
01:36No, not possible.
01:37You don't understand.
01:38I'm protecting the people that I love from the people that I love.
01:43Listen, it was unfair of me to make you my go-between.
01:46No child should be burdened with this kind of thing.
01:49We agree on one thing.
01:50What have I done?
01:52No!
01:53She's the one!
01:55Leah, never fall in love with someone that's better than you, okay?
01:58You'll just end up disappointing them and disgusting yourself!
02:01Idiot!
02:01Idiot!
02:02No!
02:05I feel like if I comfort him, he'll keep going.
02:07Idiot!
02:08Idiot!
02:09Tristan!
02:10I'm sorry!
02:12Life is unfair!
02:25I'm going to rip.
02:28Hmm.
02:31Oh.
02:33Hello.
02:36Hello.
02:44Okay, be that way.
02:54Mom, Reese finally worked up the courage to come out of hiding and face your righteous anger!
02:59She's out shopping all day.
03:00I hid under her car until she drove off.
03:03What do you want?
03:05Revenge.
03:05What did I do?
03:06You found out what I did.
03:08Do you know what this is?
03:10A completely trashed room.
03:12Do you know what room?
03:13No.
03:14Because you're a goody-goody and you've never been there.
03:16It's your principal's office.
03:18You trashed it.
03:19What?
03:19As a protest over the slow pace of progress on diversity and inclusion.
03:24What'd you do?
03:24Leave a note saying, I did it.
03:26Love, Kelly.
03:27Oh, please.
03:27I went pro 20 years before you were born.
03:30It's easy.
03:31Copy your handwriting just well enough to look like it's you trying to disguise it.
03:36Scrape your social media for characteristic phrasing.
03:38There's no activism without transgression.
03:41You gave me that.
03:43See what I did to the picture of his baby?
03:45That's going to focus some feelings.
03:47What is wrong with you?
03:49You'll never know.
03:49The court sealed that report.
03:55I'm coming, mother.
03:59I'm taking a biblical court.
04:05I see light.
04:08I could take the squirming if I didn't have to see his hanging stuff.
04:16I need it, mama.
04:19Hello, world.
04:29My, my.
04:31What a big, strong voice.
04:36Hello there.
04:38I'm Hal.
04:44How are you feeling?
04:45Hot and dizzy and nauseous.
04:47I called my mom and she said she felt like this every day for nine months and that's why she
04:51never liked me.
04:53I've been thinking a lot about my mom's list.
04:55Ah, jeez.
04:56No, it's good.
04:57No, it's good.
04:57I realized I haven't been fair to her.
04:59She's got dad to deal with.
05:01Malcolm and Reese are giant assholes.
05:03She's older now.
05:04She doesn't feed on the chaos like she used to.
05:07Wow, I'm so proud of you.
05:10You've matured just in time to be a dad.
05:13Anyway, she's freaking out about the money she's spending at the party, so I was thinking we're doing okay.
05:18We could help out.
05:20Maybe our present is that we kick in a thousand dollars toward the party.
05:23I think that's nice.
05:26Wait a minute.
05:27You're just trying to move up her list.
05:28One spot.
05:29We're having a damn baby.
05:31How is that not at least top seven?
05:33Yes, we're having a damn baby.
05:34How can you still be so fixated on your mother?
05:37Because it's making me nuts!
05:39Since the day I was born, I've always been her biggest problem.
05:42The first grade fires, the summer camp riots, the freshman plea deal.
05:46She nearly went completely bald from the stress I was causing.
05:50I don't know.
05:51I got used to it.
05:53And even recognizing how futile and self-destructive it is, you're still gonna embrace this insanity?
05:59Yes, you get it.
06:02Love you.
06:06Oh my god, you said that?
06:08You're so brave.
06:09Yeah, you know, I don't care what those guys think.
06:13You gotta float above it.
06:15That's what I do.
06:17Sees when you're pretty.
06:19I don't know.
06:20I think everyone has stuff they worry about.
06:24Is the cafeteria doing burgers or stir fry on Monday?
06:28Stir fry.
06:29Monday's always stir fry.
06:32I knew I'd be good at flirting.
06:35Come in!
06:38Hi, honey.
06:39I'm sorry again about this morning, but I want you to know I've done some hard introspection and I'm in
06:44a calmer place now.
06:46Okay.
06:46I mean, I'm still heartbroken, but I accept that it is over between Tristan and me.
06:51So now I'm sad, but it's a healthy kind of sad that I can work to get past by focusing
06:56on the good things in my life, like you.
06:59I'm gonna focus more on you.
07:01I'm actually fine.
07:02I know it's the last thing a kid your age wants is more time with daddy.
07:06But I had a great idea.
07:07Do you remember old school Manny's?
07:09Yes.
07:10It's still open.
07:11We haven't been there in years.
07:12I love that place.
07:13Me too.
07:13The fries were amazing.
07:15They were disgusting.
07:16No.
07:17Really?
07:17Everything about that place was disgusting.
07:19There was cockroaches in the bathroom.
07:21The video games were sticky.
07:23One time I got a band-aid in my sandwich.
07:25I don't remember it like that.
07:27Because you were little and it was our place.
07:29We talked about school and your dreams and-
07:32Why mom left if she loved me so much?
07:34Yeah, I never had a great answer for that one.
07:36But let's go to dinner tonight.
07:37Me and you.
07:38All right?
07:39They still have Zombie Massacre 3.
07:40We can play and tomorrow we'll compare nightmares.
07:42That sounds great.
07:43I'm really looking forward to it.
07:49You can go back to talking to that boy.
07:54Okay, wait.
07:57You look nice and comfy.
08:00I assume you're here to beg for mercy?
08:02No.
08:02Actually, I'm here to thank you.
08:05This whole thing has been a real learning experience.
08:08I learned what you're capable of.
08:10I learned that the desire for revenge can go way too far and hurt someone.
08:14I learned I'm comfortable with that.
08:16I learned your social security number is 987-654-327.
08:21I learned how to contact the IRS anonymous tip line about unreported video income.
08:27I don't have unreported income.
08:30Then you'll be fine.
08:32The IRS isn't going to listen to a stupid teenager.
08:35I'm worried about that too.
08:36But Agent Miller said the national debt is 35 trillion dollars and they'll listen to anybody.
08:44Okay, you've won.
08:47I've done this a long time, so I know.
08:50At this point, any revenge I try is not just going to be pointless.
08:53It's also going to blow back and hurt me.
08:57And somehow, I'm still looking forward to doing it.
09:01I keep looking at this font.
09:02I can't decide.
09:03Is this celebratory, romantic, or is this just cliché?
09:06I'm running out of time.
09:08What do you think?
09:09I think I clock out in five minutes.
09:11Ten seconds later, I won't remember this interaction.
09:13Yeah, you're right.
09:13It's cliché.
09:15Hi, Abe.
09:16I've been calling Hal all day and he's not answering.
09:18Where are you guys?
09:19Lois, yes, yes.
09:20Lovely to hear from you.
09:22All ready for your party tomorrow?
09:23No, because I need Hal's help.
09:25Where is he?
09:26Where are you guys?
09:26I can hear the excitement in your voice.
09:29We are all looking forward to it.
09:31Abe?
09:31Yes, we're just finishing up our haircuts.
09:34It's taking much longer than we thought.
09:36Mario is being overly precise.
09:40Oop, we're heading into a tunnel.
09:50I don't understand how you look exactly like me, and so much better than me.
09:56Even your socks.
09:58I'll never have socks like that.
09:59Hal, you have everything I have.
10:02I'm you.
10:04Pfft.
10:05Come on.
10:07I'm enjoying this, but we are here to work.
10:10Can you tell me about Hal?
10:15From the moment I had any self-awareness, I have been gripped by a pervasive fear.
10:20Fear has been my constant companion.
10:23Not as a condition or an abstraction, but something tangible, embodied.
10:29Interesting.
10:31Please, go on.
10:33Like, when I was seven.
10:36And our whole house, shook and heaved with the weight of my father's broken dreams.
10:42Fear was already there.
10:43Almost like a big brother.
10:45Your fear?
10:45Yeah, my fear.
10:47Fear taught me things I needed in life.
10:50Always say yes, because you'll probably never get another chance.
10:53And to never let go of what you've got.
10:56Because anything can be taken away from you like that.
11:00That sounds like such a hard way to live, Hal.
11:04Oh, you bet.
11:05Fear made it hard sometimes.
11:07But I don't think I would have gotten anywhere in life without his vigilance.
11:11Right?
11:12Right.
11:14Anything worth doing is worth doing in a cold sweat.
11:19See?
11:20A tough lesson delivered with kindness.
11:22Thanks, man.
11:24And he reminds me of someone.
11:27Trent Reznor.
11:28Ah, yes.
11:31Let's move on.
11:32I think we're getting somewhere.
11:34I used to think that taking care of my kids was my purpose.
11:39The best, most important thing I could ever do.
11:44You know, it really swallows up every bit of your attention and concern and plans for the future.
11:56And?
12:01As every kid grew up and moved out, I had more and more bandwidth.
12:10And I finally realized they didn't need me anymore.
12:20So, no meaning.
12:25No purpose.
12:28I...
12:30I'm nothing.
12:38Hal, you've been so focused on your family's needs.
12:43Never thought about your own.
12:45Your inner resources are depleted because you've never nourished them.
12:52I haven't thought about it like that.
12:55Hal, the key to this is what they always tell you on airplanes.
13:02You have to put your own mask on first.
13:11Oh, shit.
13:17Hey.
13:18Piyama and I can see how stressed you are about the party.
13:21But we both think an achievement like 40 years of marriage needs to be celebrated.
13:25So, we're giving you a thousand bucks toward it.
13:28Oh, thanks.
13:36Hi, this is Lois.
13:37Is that upgrade to the sound system still available?
13:40$1,500, right?
13:42Let's do it.
13:44No.
13:45I gave you that to help your money problems.
13:47You're not supposed to put yourself another 500 in the hole.
13:50I have to spend what I need to make this the way I want.
13:52And you need to stop obsessing about the list.
13:55It's only a number.
13:55Then move me up once.
13:57That's not how the list works.
13:58You're only doing this because you get some sort of sick thrill out of making me feel small.
14:03That's it.
14:03I am done.
14:05You need to get a grip on yourself because I am not going to indulge with this stupidity anymore.
14:10What's that?
14:11It's just more party stuff like all the other party stuff.
14:14Huh.
14:18Do not make a thing about this.
14:22Booties?
14:23Little bunny booties?
14:26Little bunny baby booties for your little bunny baby grandchild?
14:31They were on sale and I can return them.
14:32I knew it was important to you.
14:34Go away!
14:35What's my number now, Mom?
14:36What's my number now?
14:40So decapitation is back, back, up, high kick, forward, down?
14:43No.
14:44That pulls their hearts out and stuffs it in their throats.
14:47You know, if you want, we can go somewhere decent instead.
14:50I don't care.
14:51Anywhere I go with you is the best place in the world.
14:55Dad, quit it.
14:57Oh, can you get my bag from the back?
14:59Sure.
15:02Yeah, yeah, yeah!
15:03Stop it!
15:05What the hell are you doing?
15:06Ow!
15:06What are you doing?
15:07Ow!
15:08Ow!
15:10Ow!
15:11Ow!
15:11Ow!
15:12Why would you do this to me?
15:13You just did.
15:27I can't believe how much I've learned from you already,
15:31perfect Hal.
15:32I wish I was you.
15:33You still don't get it, regular Hal.
15:36I'm the you inside you.
15:39You have to start taking care of your own needs.
15:43Create space for the best, Hal, to grow and thrive.
15:48You have to let go of the people holding you back.
15:51People?
15:52Your family, Hal, and their constant demands.
15:56I love my family.
15:58They're termites nibbling away at your happiness.
16:02Stop the nibbling, Hal.
16:04They've got to go.
16:06Go where?
16:11You want me to kill them?
16:14New ideas can be challenging.
16:16And there's no growth without pain.
16:18But it doesn't have to be you feeling that pain.
16:24Oh, my God.
16:27You're not perfect, Hal.
16:29I was just dazzled by your socks.
16:32You're evil, Hal.
16:35You're nothing but a gorgeous monster.
16:42Are you being ridiculous, Hal?
16:48You can't beat me.
17:00Bam.
17:02Ah.
17:23You need to grow up, pal.
17:28You spent your entire life pretending I didn't exist because you knew this would happen.
17:34So, what do you want to do first?
17:36I think we start small. Do the success builds on success thing.
17:43And how about the look?
17:45Let's go with darker colors, huh?
17:50I love you.
17:53What?
17:59I love you.
18:04You're terrified of me.
18:06No, I'm not.
18:09Well, there's nothing scary about you.
18:13I don't blame fear he was trying his best, but hiding you away from me just made you seem more
18:20powerful than you are.
18:21I am powerful.
18:23No, you're needy and insubstantial and, well, delicate.
18:30Stop this!
18:31One tiny little tile of the mosaic of me.
18:35Oh, I have hundreds of different little Al's inside me telling me things.
18:41That's why I'm so easily confused.
18:44No.
18:44No.
18:45You'll be okay.
18:46No.
18:47You'll have lots of little friends.
18:49Oh, there, there.
18:50I got you, buddy.
18:53Here.
18:56Congratulations, Al.
18:57Oh.
18:58You vanquished the inner demon and cast off false duality.
19:02Well done.
19:04Bodhisattva Manjushri Kamara Buddha?
19:07Call me out about you now.
19:09How would I know who you are?
19:12I wouldn't know that.
19:13It's the collective unconscious.
19:15Young has a...
19:16It's boring.
19:17Don't worry about it.
19:18What's important is that you are now worthy of meeting your animal partner.
19:21They will be your guide, your mentor, and your guardian.
19:25Where?
19:29What is that?
19:33Can I get a wolf or a panther?
19:36No one chooses their animal partner.
19:38It chooses you.
19:39I mean, I have a 12-foot blue lion, but they're all gray.
19:44It's leading you somewhere.
19:47But...
19:47Hey, I'm not making you do the mantras or contemplate the five skandas.
19:51I'm not making you achieve an inconceivable state without obstruction or form.
19:55We're cutting a lot of corners here, so just follow the rat.
20:15Rat friend.
20:26What?
20:36Then what's the most...
20:44Oh...
20:50That's good.
20:51You're okay.
21:10It's it! It's! It's! I get it!
21:18Yes! Okay, each of you, tell me again what you're doing tomorrow.
21:25Mom, come on. It's late. We're tired.
21:27We've gone over it. We know what our jobs are. Stop treating us like half-witted toddlers.
21:32This isn't about you doing your jobs. This is about managing my anxiety.
21:35I can't find your father. And they sent me pillar candles instead of taper candles.
21:40So now I have to shave them into the proper shape. And wax is not a forgiving medium.
21:45I mean, look at this. That's too tapered!
21:50Obviously, I am losing it. So please, let's just do this and then you can go to sleep. Kelly.
21:55Blow up balloons, then make sure the tables are completely set before I put out the favor bags.
21:59Yeah, ma. Check the rentals against your list.
22:01Verify there are no scratches or dents before I give those crooks one red cent.
22:05Francis, make sure all 50 parking spaces are clear. Set up a separate supply area and signage for your signature
22:10cocktails,
22:10the fuzzy Lois, and the halgarita. I'll keep working on the names.
22:14Thank you!
22:17Halgarita.
22:20Hello.
22:21Hi, Grandma. It's Leah. I've got great news. We're coming to your party after all.
22:26Dad just changed his mind out of the blue. See you there.
22:29Please slow down. I promise I won't try to jump out again.
22:32It's 11 more hours to Grandma and Grandpas. We're not slowing down.
22:37Oh, move a little that way. You're gonna get blood on my dress.
22:40That dress is a really good color for you.
22:42Thank you. And you're gonna look amazing in your outfit. Like a hot 18-year-old.
22:47This is insanity! You've committed an actual kidnapping!
22:52Does this mean we're back together?
22:54This is an intervention. You're addicted to being an idiot and we are helping you.
22:59You can't spend the rest of your life lying and hiding and denying your family even exists.
23:05It worked perfectly until they showed up.
23:06But Dad, stop. Please, stop. You're not protecting me from your family drama.
23:12You're the one keeping it going.
23:14I'm trying to be a good father. I don't know.
23:17If I should know something and you keep it a secret, you aren't saving me.
23:23You're stealing from me. My choice. My self-respect. My trust in you.
23:30Daddy, I need all of those things.
23:35Oh, my God. You're right. You're completely right. I am so sorry.
23:44I should have told you. All this secrecy is just so toxic.
23:54Twelve years ago, I was arrested for attempted murder.
23:58Whoa! You what?!
23:59I didn't think it was important to tell you until we were serious,
24:03and then with your whole political thing, I just didn't know how to bring it up.
24:07And it wasn't even murder. I mean, I totally got off.
24:10You tried to murder someone?
24:13My mom was dating this guy, and one time he beat her up, and I got him arrested.
24:18But all of his buddies were cops, and he got out the next morning.
24:22He came straight to my apartment and kicked my door in, and I shot him.
24:26You know how to shoot people, obviously.
24:30When the cops came, Jenna, my roommate, told them what happened,
24:33but all of his buddies believed him, and I got arrested.
24:37Cops?
24:37Yeah.
24:38It took a couple of weeks for everyone to figure out the truth and dismiss the charges.
24:41And by the way, it took me a lot of work to finally get my arrest record sealed.

24:47But it did get in some newspapers.
24:50And all over the internet.
24:53Because I was naked when I shot him.
24:55In the balls.

25:38Yeah.
25:38You delivered the wrong projector!
25:41I specifically asked for 4K at 2700 lumens.
25:45You sent 2000 lumens at 1080p!
25:47What the hell are you talking about?
25:48I figured it out!
25:50No one realizes it, but I'm their birthday cake!
25:54Everyone can take slices of happiness from me whenever they want!
25:57And I never run out of slices!
26:00That's who I am!
26:01I'm an inexhaustible cake!
26:03You're not a cake!
