06:14Oh, look at that detail.
06:19Everybody's eyes will fall out of their heads when they see our girl.
06:23I love you so much, but you're ridiculous.
06:25I love you so much, and I know I'm ridiculous.

06:53Hey, Gigi.

07:30God!
07:33Dude.
07:35Oh, you fucked up.
07:37What?
07:37How could I have already fucked up?
07:39Nobody's going to want to hook up with you after they see you.
07:42You should have been a lifeguard with me.
07:43Oh, and hardly anyone drowns.
07:45God, okay, well, I'll take that hair net if it means I don't have to live with my mom freshman
07:50year.
07:52Yeah.
07:52All right, fair enough.
07:53Fair enough.
07:58Take it in, Steven.
08:00This is all ours.
08:02Summer in July
08:06Summer in July
08:49Summer in July
08:51Hey, hon?
08:52Yeah?
08:53Would you change and meet me out back?
08:55I want to paint your portrait first.
08:59Why me?
09:00Because everyone else has things to do?
09:09I have things to do, too, Mom.
09:12I think you can spare a few hours for your mother.
09:18Sure.
09:19Great.
09:20I'll see you outside in ten.
09:24See you there.
09:25Put on something nice.
09:28You see her?
09:30I'm hooked up with her.
09:31Him.
09:32Life card.
09:33And the one in the blue.
09:35And the guy with the eyebrows.
09:39You're just such a slut, man.
09:40Okay.
09:41I just like to kiss.
09:42Then be cozy to people.
09:43Oh, yeah.
09:47Never kissed her, though.
09:51Yeah, keep it that way.
09:53Okay, all right.
09:54So, Shayla's cute and all, but I'd avoid getting sucked in.
09:57Sucked?
09:58I sucked in the wood.
09:59To all that.
10:01Wait, girls in sundresses are my kryptonite, but I'd never let one talk me into being an escort.
10:05Trust me.
10:06If Shayla asks you and you say yes, it's going to blow up your whole summer.
10:11Yo, Steven.
10:12We need extra hands at the Deb T.
10:13Pay his double.
10:15Come on.
10:16Okay, yeah.
10:16All right.
10:17Don't get that bread.
10:18Yes, sir.
10:18Cheers.
10:19Cheers.
10:19Cheers.
10:20Cheers.
10:20Cheers.
10:21Cheers.
10:29Thanks, Mom.
10:30Sure.
10:33Belly?
10:35I just want you to know that if you decide you hate it, or if the girls are mean, or
10:39even
10:39if the food is bad, you can text me.
10:41I promise I won't say I told you so.
10:43I'll be fine.
10:44Humor me.
10:46Use our code phrase and I'll be right there.
10:48Mom.
10:49You remember it from when you were little, right?
10:51Lemon.
10:52Lemon Jelly Belly.
10:55Have fun.
11:07Hey.
11:10Jeremiah.
11:15Oh, my God.
11:17Belly.
11:18Wow.
11:18I didn't even recognize you.
11:21Tell me the truth.
11:22Um, do I look like a fool?
11:27Um, uh, no.
11:29You look good, but you look good.
11:31Um, let me walk you over.
11:35What?
11:38Let's go.
11:39Are those, are those pineapples?
11:41Pineapples?
11:41Pineapples?
11:42I don't know.
11:42Have you seen flowers before?
11:44I have, but that is for sure a pineapple.
11:49That's a nice pineapple dress you got there.
11:51Yeah.
11:52I'm sorry.
11:53I'm sorry.
11:53I'm sorry.
11:54I'm sorry.
11:54I'm sorry.
11:55I'm sorry.
11:56I'm sorry.
11:56Okay.
11:57I still never thought I'd see the day where you're wearing a fascinator.
12:13Jeremiah.
12:15Paige.
12:18Where's your shirt?
12:20It's always a pleasure.
12:23This is Belly.
12:24I mean, uh, Isabel Conklin, the young woman my mom told you about.
12:28My future wife.
12:32She's late.
12:33I, I'm, I'm so sorry.
12:35You're at table two.
12:38Are those those little burrito fig jam sandwiches with the prosciutto?
12:42Don't you dare.
12:43Okay.
12:44Those are for the girls.
12:45Jeremiah, those are for the girls.
12:47Here's just one.
12:48Knock her, Dad.
12:53Oh, my God.
12:55That's the girl Conrad was kissing at the bonfire.
12:57And that's the girl Steven was with.
13:01Ugh.
13:03FML.
13:11Hi.
13:12Hi.
13:19Hey.
13:20Lemon jelly belly.
13:22Hey.
13:23Hi.
13:25Is that from the other night?
13:28Here, let me fix it.
13:35I think we're good.
13:36Yes.
13:59So.
14:02How's Nicole?
14:03Paul.
14:06Mom, can we not do this?
14:10Like, no, I, I, you asked me to come sit for this portrait and, and, and I'm here and I'm
14:14sitting and I'm more than happy to be here.
14:18But can we not make this, like, a bonding experience, please?
14:21Well, excuse me for trying to connect with my son before he leaves for a year.
14:37Belly looked really nice in her new dress.
14:49I think if you want to spend your summer moping around, I can't stop you, but no more sleeping till
14:56two, no more day drinking.
14:58I want you doing something productive.
15:04You're getting a job.
15:09Sure.
15:11Great.
15:16Sit still.
15:18Sit up.
15:21I told my mom the only way I would do this is if I could bring my girlfriend.
15:24Because I thought it would be a deal killer, but the club has been surprisingly chill about the whole thing.
15:29I'm honestly shocked.
15:31Yeah.
15:31Literally.
15:32Dara, I was expecting a conversion camp to spring out of the bushes.
15:35No, lesbians and debutantes are, like, a completely juxtaposing idea.
15:39Opposites.
15:40Yeah, but Cousins likes to pretend to be woke.
15:42Trust me, my family deals with it constantly.
15:44The things we do for college applications.
15:46That's insane.
15:47Don't worry, Marissa.
15:48You're getting everywhere.
15:49Wait, where are you applying?
15:51You know, the usual, every IV, minus Cornell.
15:55Ithaca is so bleak.
15:56Yeah.
15:57I know.
15:57What about you?
15:59Oh.
16:00Belly's only a sophomore.
16:01Right?
16:02I think that's what Conrad told me.
16:04Yeah.
16:04I'll be a junior in the fall.
16:06So, is this your first summer here at Cousins?
16:09No, I've been coming here for my entire life.
16:12Yeah.
16:12She's, like, family friends with Conrad and Jeremiah.
16:15Uh, so are you and Jeremiah, like, a thing, or are you going to take him to the ball?
16:20Um.
16:21Oh, my God.
16:21Back off, Gigi.
16:23It was a question.
16:24They're, like, basically related.
16:26Okay?
16:26You have nothing to worry about.
16:27I'm not worried.
16:28Mm-hmm.
16:28Yeah, sure.
16:29Keep telling yourself that, babe.
16:31Gigi has had this thing for Jeremiah.
16:35Ever since he got abs?
16:37Absolutely.
16:38Pun intended.
16:38Absolutely.
16:39Relax.
16:40I'm not into Jeremiah Fisher.
16:42Yeah, and you're noticing his abs?
16:43No.
16:44She's too busy eye-fucking the waiter.
16:46Dude, that's Belly's brother.
16:48Oh, my God.
16:49Oh, yeah.
16:50Really?
16:51So, what's it like to live with Jeremiah and Conrad?
16:54Yeah.
16:55Conrad's so mysterious.
17:02Hello, debutantes.
17:04Hello, debutantes.
17:34A few small housekeeping bits I'd like to go over.
17:37We have a lot to look forward to this season.
17:40Now, I understand some of you might think that debbing is outdated.
17:44It's something you're doing to appease your families.
17:47But the Cousins' debutante ball is a part of history.
17:52Venerated, yet ever-evolving, it's a tradition you'll someday pass on to your own daughters.
17:59It's a formal marking of this passage of time between your teenage years and your adulthood.
18:06One ends, and the other begins.
18:09It's a journey generations of women before you have taken.
18:13Women who you can learn from, who can inspire you.
18:17Debs, at each table is a big sister who will guide you through the season.
18:23So, please, introduce yourselves.
18:28Hey, little sis.
18:33Honestly, my parents made me do it last year because, you know, like, all the women in my family have
18:37done it.
18:37But my big sis was great, and I actually ended up having a lot of fun.
18:42So, just don't be nervous.
18:45Okay.
18:46Do you want some?
18:50Um, no thanks.
18:52I'm good, but I'll be right back.
18:54Oh, okay.
18:55Sorry.
18:56What is that about?
18:58Kim!
19:00Belly, what are you doing here?
19:03Wait, are you a dev?
19:05Yeah, I guess.
19:07Technically, yes.
19:08Cool. Nice.
19:09I went down to the marina yesterday, but, uh, your boat had already left.
19:12Seriously? Man.
19:14Yeah.
19:14If you had looked back toward the pier, you would have seen a sweaty version of me looking wistfully toward
19:18your boat.
19:19Well, we never want you to be wistful.
19:20You know, I think it's too late.
19:22The wistfulness has set in.
19:23No.
19:23No, I might be wistful forever.
19:26Okay, well, do you think going to a drive-in movie with me tonight might help with the wistfulness?
19:32Yeah, I think it would.
19:34Cool.
19:35Uh, you know what? Let me give you this. You can put your information.
19:41Uh, I think that should be good.
19:45Sweet. Yay. Cool.
19:48So, I'll see you later. Bye.
19:50Bye. Have fun. See you later.
20:07You look really cute.
20:08You are going to have so much fun tonight.
20:11We're just going to see a movie.
20:14You look nice, hon.
20:16I can't believe crop tops are back.
20:18Remember how I thought I was such hot shit in that baby tee I wore a freshman year?
20:23Have fun tonight.
20:26Are you not driving with us?
20:29Um, didn't Belly tell you?
20:32She has a date.
20:34Sorry, Mom.
20:36Um, his name is Cam.
20:37His mom works at the club. Really nice boy. Very smart.
20:41Like Harvard smart.
20:46It's fine. Of course you can go.
20:49I've dragged you to enough of these book parties over the years.
20:52Have a great date.
20:53Thanks.
20:55Do we need to talk about consent before you go?
20:57Mom?
21:05I kind of wish I weren't going to this party either. No offense.
21:07Quit being such a Debbie Downer.
21:09You'll get inspired again. I know it.
21:11Maybe I said all I have to say.
21:13Maybe I don't have any books left in me anymore.
21:15You haven't done anything since your divorce.
21:17You got to get out there. Replenish the well.
21:19Have fun.
21:20Go to parties.
21:25Come on.
21:33Full team. Full team. Full team.
21:34Okay, coming. Coming right now.
21:37Look, I see one.
21:40Cracked one. Cracked one.
21:41Nice.
21:41See you guys later.
21:45Damn.
21:47Are you kidding?
21:48No, yeah, fine. Just abandon the game completely, Jared.
21:51You look hot.
21:54Hey, hey, hey. Stop flirting with my sister.
21:57Shut up, Stephen.
21:58Hey, you shut up.
22:00You look good, though.
22:02Are you driving with or are you meeting us there?
22:05I'm not going to the book party.
22:07I'm going to the drive-in.
22:08You too.
22:10Hey, dude, dude, focus. Come on.
22:14Okay, bye.
22:19Let me catch up.
22:36Hi.
22:36Hi.
22:37You look less wistful.
22:38I, uh, I feel less wistful.
22:40Okay.
22:43What movie are we seeing?
22:44Uh, it's some old movie called, uh, Sabrina.
22:48Audrey Hepburn, Two Brothers.
22:49That's Sabrina?
22:50I think so.
22:51Yeah?
22:51I love that movie.
22:52It got really great reviews.
22:53It's so cool.
22:54I'm sure it is.
22:56It's really good.
22:56Good.
23:01And as had been traditional on Long Island for the past 30 years, the Larabees were giving
23:07a party.
23:08It never rained on the night of the Larabee party.
23:12The Larabees wouldn't have stood for it.
23:15There were four Larabees in all.
23:18Father, mother, and two sons.
23:22Maud and Oliver Larabee were married in 1906, and among their many wedding presents was a
23:29townhouse in New York, and this estate for weekends.
23:32Are you sure you don't want something to drink?
23:34Yeah, I'm okay.
23:35Thanks.
23:36Yeah.
23:38Linus Larabee, the elder son, graduated from Yale, where his classmates voted him the man
23:46most likely to leave his alma mater of $50 million.
23:50His brother, David, went through several of the best East and gorgeous friends and careers
23:57of time, and through several marriages, he traveled to the nearest of time.
24:17You can do that right.
24:21You can do it, right?
24:58I really liked it.
25:01You read my book?
25:02Yeah.
25:03Yeah, I thought it was really interesting how you made Iris an unreliable narrator.
25:11In what way?
25:13Just how the story she was telling us about her marriage, I mean, so clearly wasn't the
25:17real story.
25:19I'm not sure that's entirely true, but okay.
25:22Great to meet you, Cleveland.
25:23Can't wait for the next one.
25:24Yeah, me too.
25:27So, what is the next one?
25:29It's mainly about sailing.
25:31No, it's sort of a modern epic.
25:34You sail?
25:36Are you surprised?
25:38Kind of.
25:39I thought you were like a Brooklyn hipster.
25:42Do people say hipster anymore?
25:46No.
25:46No.
25:48But you're right.
25:49I don't sail.
25:50You know, I am trying to learn.
25:52You know, I like to write about things I know nothing about to completely immerse myself
25:59in new worlds.
26:00And the problem is, I am completely lost at sea.
26:09You see that boy over there?
26:11Oh yeah, the one who's been punting Chardonnay all night.
26:13No.
26:14Conrad.
26:16Come over here.
26:24Conrad, this is Cleveland.
26:26He's writing a book about sailing, but also knows nothing about sailing.
26:31Conrad's a great sailor.
26:32You won a regatta last year, right?
26:35Came in second, but...
26:37Oh.
26:39So, uh, did you teach?
26:41I could, uh, use some lessons.
26:49Did my mom put you up to this?
26:51What?
26:52Why?
26:54Typical.
27:02Man, a few words?
27:05Apparently.
27:08Um, here you go.
27:16Yo, this shit is so boring, can we go somewhere?
27:19Yeah, where?
27:21We could go into town.
27:23I don't know, buy some weed from that guy with the rainbow dash tattoo?
27:26Nah, he got arrested last summer.
27:28Oh shit, really?
27:29Yeah.
27:32Yeah, we could go to the drive-in.
27:35Dude, gross.
27:36No, I don't want to watch Belly hooking up with some kid in the backseat of a minivan.
27:42Yo, actually, let's go to the drive-in.
27:48Wait, like, like really?
27:51Yeah.
27:52Why not?
27:53Why not?
27:54Yeah.
27:55Alright, bro.
27:56Keep driving.
27:57Oh, yes!
27:59Get up!
28:00Come on!
28:13Can I ask you a question?
28:16Yeah.
28:19Why marine biology?
28:23Well, why not?
28:25I just, I feel like it was a, um, a phase that everyone goes through when they're little.
28:30But you stuck with it.
28:32Yeah.
28:33There's a jellyfish with Benjamin Bunn's disease.
28:37What?
28:39I just think it's immortal.
28:42Nobody knows why, though.
28:44This thing could be like the cure for cancer.
28:47But how do you harness jellyfish cells?
28:50I don't know how do you.
28:52I don't know either.
28:53Nobody does.
28:55Nuts.
28:57And, um, eels?
28:59Nobody knows how eels reproduce.
29:02Seriously.
29:04The fact that eels exist, it's just like a complete anomaly.
29:07Yeah.
29:08It's wild.
29:10And people don't know, you know, what's at the bottom of the Mariana Trench either.
29:16There's so many inexplicable things about the ocean.
29:21I want to be able to explain them.
29:23Some of them.
29:24Totally.
29:24Sure.
29:27Why are you looking at me that way?
29:29All night long, I've had the most terrible impulse to do something.
29:33Never resist an impulse, Sabrina.
29:35Especially if it's terrible.
29:37I'm gonna do it.
29:39Before last night, I'd only kissed boys during Spin the Bottle.
29:42Not in real life.
29:44Not because we both really want it.
29:48But the way I feel right now, this is what everyone talks about.
29:56Hey, could you, um, grab me that drink, actually?
29:59Maybe like a cherry coke or something?
30:01Yeah, no problem.
30:02Sounds good.
30:03I'll be right back.
30:04Thanks.
30:12What the hell do you think you're doing?
30:14Uh, just catching the end of our favorite movie.
30:16You have no right.
30:17You have to go.
30:18Oh, Billy, relax.
30:19We're just joking around.
30:21Steven?
30:22If you don't leave, I swear to God, I will send to everyone in this car your Dramini fanfic.
30:29You wouldn't.
30:30Oh, he spent an entire chapter talking about Draco's wand.
30:34Oh, bro.
30:35Oh, my God.
30:36Don't be embarrassed, man.
30:37Draco's wand.
30:38Drop it.
30:39Hey, seriously?
30:41Please leave.
30:45All right, let's go, guys.
30:47What?
30:47Steven, drive the car.
30:49You were the one who wanted to come, Conrad.
30:51You were the one who wanted to come, Conrad.
30:53You'll miss something here.
30:55Would you mind starting all over again?
30:57No, Mr. Carlisle.
30:59I hate to have to break news of you, but at this very moment, you'll be on stage.
31:03David Laramie.
31:04He is late as you do.
31:10Hello, everybody.
31:11Hello, darling.
31:13How's up?
31:14Cherry Coke.
31:15Thank you so much.
31:20How is it?
31:22It's good.
31:32What are you up to, hon?
31:36Uh...
31:37Yeah, yeah, just video games.
31:39Don't stay up too late.
31:40You've got work early in the morning tomorrow.
31:41All right, Mom.
31:42Promise.
32:13I had a really good time tonight.
32:15Did you also?
32:17Yeah, no.
32:18I had a really...
32:19I had a really great time.
32:20Yeah.
32:20I think I was just dehydrated before.
32:24Okay.
32:26Are you hydrated now?
32:29Yeah, very.
32:32I don't want this night to be over.
32:36Uh...
32:36Can I...
32:38Uh...
32:39Would it be cool to you if...
32:41Yeah...
32:41Can I?
32:56Uh...
32:57Oh, yeah.
32:58Yep.
32:58Good idea.
33:00I need those.
33:01Bye.
33:02I had a dream about her.
33:04She rings my bell.
33:06I got you in class and have an hour.
33:09Oh, how she rocks in kids and tube socks.
33:14But she doesn't know who I am.
33:18And she doesn't give a damn about me.
33:24Cause I'm just a teenager now, baby.
33:28Yeah, I'm just a teenager now, baby.
33:34This is who I am, maiden baby.
33:39We'll be here.
33:41Oh, we'll be here.
33:51Steven, I know it's kind of lame, but I think we'd have fun together.
33:56Will you be my date to the Deadpool?
33:58And he brings a gun to school and needs every kid.
34:02Oh, yeah.
34:04Oh, yeah.
34:04Oh, yeah.
34:06Yeah.
34:07Yeah, definitely.
34:09And he drives in a rock.
34:11But he doesn't know who I am.
34:15And he doesn't give a damn about me.
34:21Cause I'm just a teenager now, baby.
34:25Yeah, I'm just a teenage jerk bag, baby.
34:31Mixed into iron, made out, baby with me.
34:38Ooh.
34:41Two, three.
34:42All right.
34:52How was your hot date?
34:55Excuse me?
34:57Okay, relax.
34:58We were just having a little fun.
35:00You guys are assholes.
35:02Belly, come on.
35:05All I wanted was to go to a drive-in with a guy that I think is cute and sweet.
35:09And you guys had to come and ruin it.
35:12And us showing up for like two minutes ruined that, really?
35:17Grow up, Belly.
35:20Why couldn't you let me have this one thing?
35:24Huh?
35:24Admit it.
35:25You knew what you were doing.
35:28What?
35:28What was I doing?
35:31Reminding me that you existed.
35:33I don't know what you're talking about.
35:36You cared where I was.
35:37Who I was with.
35:38No, I didn't.
35:40I don't care.
35:41Stop lying.
35:42Stop being such a baby.
35:43Oh, and you're such an adult.
35:44Adult, you spent your Saturday night crashing my first date for fun.
35:56Fine.
35:57Fine, forget it.
36:00Why don't you go smoke some more pot?
36:03Why don't you go look in the mirror some more?
36:09I wonder if this is the way all crushes die.
36:12With a whimper, slowly.
36:14And then just like that, gone.
36:21Gone.
36:22Gone.
36:23Gone.
36:44Gone.
36:46Gone.
36:47Gone.
36:49Gone.
36:49Who.
36:59Gone.
37:01Gone.
37:02Gone.
37:08Still.
