[background chatter]
Um...
My boyfriend and
I, we-we-broke up.
Don't worry, though...
I'm... It's going to be okay.
I'm sure we're going
to get back together.
Yeah.
Um... I know you used to write
poetry when you were younger.
I did.
I actually wrote a poem
about this breakup.
You wanna see?
Uh, no, that's...
that's too small.
- I can't...
- I can make it bigger.
Oh, look. Hold on. But
let me show you somethin'.
Let me show you
somethin'. There!
All right. All right?
I mean, she's no oil painting.
What do you mean,
Dad? She's pretty.
Well, I mean,
she's not gonna win
swimsuit competitions,
that's for sure.
Isn't she in her sixties?
I hope I look like
that when I'm her age.
Yeah. No, I guess. I guess.
But this one. Oh...
This is gonna break your heart.
She got a great body, right?
- Uh-huh.
- But... Oh, no!
A face to protect it! [laughs]
Uh-uh.
She... She looks nice, too.
Permanent Halloween.
[chuckles]
Oh no! Slim pickings
over at Shady Oaks. Oh.
I'm the youngest one there.
I won the pickleball
competition. [chuckles]
They give me a big
trophy and everything.
I'm like the Michael
Jordan of Shady Oaks.
Those old women, they
love that. They love that.
Here, let me show
you another one.
Well, I tell you what.
I'm gonna text these to you,
all my options later,
so you can look at them on
your phone and just tell me...
- Okay.
- ...which one you think
is my best bet.
All right?
Bleugh, bleugh. [sighs]
I'm so tired of paying
to watch women eat.
Wha... I-I think
you're supposed to
be getting to know them,
you know, like talking...
I know, but why do you
need food for that?
You know what? I guess...
- I guess you don't!
- Yeah.
And also, listen,
I think it's time
to lock it down
with one of them.
And I'm pretty sure it's
this one right here.
- Mmm.
- That's Helene.
That's my frontrunner.
Hey, I think that she would
be pretty good for you too.
You know? Fill a space
that you didn't have.
We've been on a couple of dates,
and I think it's time
to close the deal.
And, uh, women like family.
That's great, Dad.
I mean, who doesn't
love family, right?
Women like meeting family!
- You!
- Oh! Me!
You, me, tomorrow night 7 p.m.
El Capparal.
It's Taco Tuesdays!
I'm gonna pull
out my black suit.
So you know I mean business.
But I'm gonna need you to, uh...
Oh, I mean, I... I
have nicer things.
I mean, I just
came back from work
with Daphne and her therapist...
Tomorrow night.
I'll see you then?
- Yeah.
- This could be fun.
[tapping table] You and me.
Back in the saddle again.
Oh, crap... I forgot
my wallet in the car.
- Uh, do you want me to...
- Oh, no. You're fine.
- You're fine. I got it.
- Okay. All right.
I'll get you later.
I'll get you later.
- Okay?
- Yeah, absolutely.
[chuckles] All right.
- But wear something nice?
- Yeah.
[cellphone ding]
[sigh]
I'm starting my LLC.
For my line of custom hair
dyes and nail polishes.
Melony and Renae and I
were supposed to start
this together, but...
They're gonna regret
it when it blows up.
And I'm gonna be driving
a Lamborghini SUV
when I get better.
Or maybe I'll get a jet
with a couple of pilots.
Ooh, Monday?
Let's look for some office
spaces for my salon.
Oh, wait... you have
the MRI next Monday.
What?
No! Let's just skip it!
I mean, look at me. I'm fine!
[clicks tongue,
sighs] Daphne...
I'm sorry. We can't skip it.
I know, I know it's
scary, but, you know,
I'll be there just
like last time.
All right. I guess so.
What are you gonna
call your company, huh?
I was thinking 'Dye Lux.'
[keyboard clicking]
Hello. How are you?
- Been better.
- Oh.
I'm so sorry to hear that.
I hope the rest of your
day is great. [chuckles]
I'm here to see a counselor.
It's my first time.
[sigh]
[drawer closes]
[papers rustling]
[sighs] Okay, just
fill this out.
[man sighs]
Can I borrow a pen, please?
A pen.
Okay...
I'm gonna need this
pen back. Okay?
[mouthing] Okay.
Bring it back to you.
I'm going to give
you many, many ways
that you can check
in with yourself
as you listen and
say, "Do I do that?"
"Am I doing that? Is this
what I'm up to?" [laughs]
So let's talk
about self-abandonment
and being self-abandoning...
[laughs]
How do you abandon
yourself, right? Like...
Are you really
getting this business
about self-abandonment?
Because it really does need to
be something you really get.
You want to be your
own best friend.
I know that's cliche,
but you want to do
what you would...
[woman] So... what
brings you in today?
Well, I broke up with
the guy I was seeing.
At least I think we broke up?
I'm just wondering
if there was something
I could have done.
I'm hoping this will help.
Got it! We'll see
what we can do.
Thanks.
This office is super nice.
[counselor] It's my
teacher's office,
but I get to use
it to do my hours.
Oh. How many hours you need?
3,000.
Wow! That's a lot
of hours! (laughs)
Oh, man. Okay. How
many have you done?
As far as private
one-on-one hours go,
I'd say I've done about...
12?
Wow.
Cool! That's great. You're
really on your way then.
- Yeah!
- You know, I was kind of hoping
that we could do this
all in one session.
I don't know if that's possible.
I don't make a lot of money,
but I talk really fast,
that's what people tell me,
so that could help.
Why don't you give
me your history
in your own words, and
we can go from there?
[click tongues]
Where should I start?
A lot of people like to
start at the beginning.
Oh...
Okay. [laughs]
All right, the
beginning... um...
All right. Okay, let's do it.
So, my mom got into drugs
when I was about four years
old, then she left us.
No one really
knows where she is.
And despite what my father says,
I'm pretty sure it's
not entirely my fault.
I was only locked in
there for 24 hours.
It wasn't like a huge deal.
It wasn't like I was gonna die
in that time period
or anything like that.
So it was totally okay. And
I understood why he did it.
You know, it got, it
got dark and scary.
So I ended up finding
my way back home
just in time for dinner.
And I made us his favorite
- macaroni and cheese!
I was in shock. I had never
seen anything like that...
I was frozen. I'd seen
it in movies, but...
I bet it's really
cathartic to smash things
and to swipe things off a table.
I mean, I bet it is, right?
I was only ten years old,
so what do I know? [laughs]
And then that was when
I decided to run away
with my life savings of
$9 from weed pulling.
I started down that road.
I was gone the whole day.
I'm pretty sure dad didn't
even notice that I was gone.
I got away before anything
really happened. Yeah.
Plus, I was wearing a skirt,
so it was kind of my fault.
And I hit this growth spurt,
so the skirt was really short.
I looked a lot older
than what I actually am.
Um, so now I just wear pants.
So I guess that brings us here,
or at least to the
beginning of my adult life.
[cries]
I'm sorry...
[counselor sniffles]
Oh, my God.
I'm sorry.
Are you okay?
You know, it's gonna be okay.
It's gonna be okay. Okay.
- [light music]
- [Lily] I'm excited.
[Robert] Yeah, me too, me too.
Just remember the plan, okay?
Which one is she again?
She's the one I showed
you on Facebook.
- I showed you. You remember.
- Right. Yeah. No, of course.
- All right.
- You forget something?
No! Uh...
All right... hey, so
you remember. You, uh...
- You got to make me look good.
- Yeah!
No, I mean, like,
uh... like, real good.
Like, uh, better
than I actually am.
Of course! I remember how.
Okay, okay...
Oh, also, I don't
go by 'Bob' anymore.
But, Dad, you've
always gone by 'Bob'.
No, the ladies...
they prefer 'Robert'.
[Lily] Oh, okay. But you
might just try being yourself.
Oh! Yeah! Like
that's ever worked.
- Hey, come on in! There you go.
- [man] Thank you.
- See that makes me look polite.
- Right!
[Robert chuckles] Showtime!
Okay. All right, now laugh
like I said something funny.
[both laugh]
[Mexican music
playing in background]
I'll have the Chicken
Mole Enchiladas
with the cheese on
the side, please.
[waiter] Of course.
Uh... So, are the enchiladas
included in the Taco
Tuesday special?
- [waiter] Uh, no.
- [Robert] No? Sure? Yeah.
[chuckles] I'm sorry,
penny saved, right?
[Robert] Help a brother out...
You know, they used to
call Dad 'Coupon Bob.'
[Helene chuckles]
He is so thrifty. Oh, my gosh.
Who doesn't love a man who
knows a good deal, right?
- Yes.
- Oh.
By the way, that is
awesome about your son.
Congratulations!
- My son?
- Yes.
I mean, you must
be so proud of him
being a vet and all.
A vet?
Yes, like a... like a doctor,
but for animals.
[chuckles] Oh, gosh. Um...
I'm sorry, did he go
to war? Like, what...
what kind of vet is he?
I don't have a son.
[Helene chuckles]
- [Helene] Robert!
- Huh?
Did you think I had a son?
Well, of course you don't.
You're too young. [chuckles]
Dad, I...
I never said that, sweetheart.
She don't have a
kid. [chuckles]
Oh!
Oh, oh, oh, of course!
No, you're into hot yoga.
I've always wanted to try that.
Yeah, you know what? Uh...
I don't know what's in
your drink. [laughs]
- Is there something wrong?
- Wh-what is happening?
What is she talking about?
Well, if I can be honest,
and she doesn't mind,
she went on her medication.
A different one this time.
And so we're working
it out as a family,
but it's cloudy up there.
I'm so sorry.
I think that I just got
a little bit mistaken.
I'm a little bit mixed up.
It's okay. It's gettin'
better. But... [laughs]
Bob, are you dating other women?
[both] No!
- No!
- No.
- [Lily] Uh-uh...
- Uh...
[sighs]
I need to get to an appointment
with my son.
Helen! Ugh, Helene!
[car tires squeal]
God! Look what you did!
I didn't mean to.
God! Do you have any
idea how many meals
I had to sit through
just to get here?
Now I've got to start all
over with someone new.
Good job!
Well, I'm sorry. I was confused.
I told you, she's the
blonde on Facebook.
They are all blonde.
I told you, she's a 60 year
old blonde on Facebook.
They're all 60 year old blondes.
I just was trying to help.
That's what you call helping?
Okay.
You know what?
You're done!
What? 'Done?' No!
I'm tired of you
ruining my life.
All right? We're over.
You go ruin your own life.
- [car door slams]
- 'Over?' Wait, Dad...
Please, Dad, open up.
Please, let's just talk.
What do you mean 'over?'
Come on, open it. Please...
No! I don't wanna talk to you!
I don't wanna talk to
you! Don't touch my car!
- Can we just talk, please?
- I don't want to talk to you!
- [engine starts]
- I don't want to talk to you!
- [Robert] Goodbye forever!
- Dad, no!
Dad!
[]
[phone ringing]
[Robert] Hello?
Hey, Dad, it's me.
Gotcha! [laughs]
Leave a message,
I'll get back to you.
- You have a great day.
- [voicemail beeps]
Hi, Dad. Oh my gosh, I always
loved that voicemail of yours.
So funny. Um, have you
been getting my messages?
I-I think there's been some
sort of miscommunication.
I'm almost done
working with Daphne.
Could you just text me?
I have a break later,
and, you know, we can...
talk, maybe?
All right, bye.
[Robert voicemail]
Gotcha! [laughs]
Leave a message.
I'll get back to you.
You have a great day.
- [voicemail beeps]
- Hi!
[woman] The mailbox is full
and cannot accept any messages.
Goodbye.
[]
[doorbell rings]
[doorbell rings]
Dad!? It's me!
- [Robert] Go away!
- Dad?!
Dad! Please. Let's come out...
Let's just talk, okay?
I just came here
to say I'm sorry,
and I really want
you to forgive me.
Please!
[Robert] Get off my porch!
[women] Look at Robert's!
Hi. It's okay. This is my dad.
I'm his daughter.
[woman grunts]
[Lily] Thank you. Dad!
[woman] Kaylie! There
she is. Kaylie! Kaylie!
I admit responsibility.
[Robert] I told you,
I'm done talking to you.
[banging noises]
You are trespassing!
And I feel threatened!
[Lily] Threatened? Dad!
No, no... n-n-n-n-no.
This is elder abuse!
Okay, Dad. I'm here to
make amends. Please.
I'll get you another date.
She'll be even better!
She'll be an oil painting!
I had an oil painting!
Dad, please.
Please, let's talk.
There's people here.
- [Robert] Good!
- Please.
Ma'am!
But... uh...
Dad!
[woman] Ma'am.
We take the safety and
privacy of our tenants
very seriously
here at Shady Oaks,
Miss Trevanio.
It's 'Trevino.'
Returning again without
permission from a tenant
will result in criminal
trespassing charges.
Understood?
[]
[Lily] Excuse me.
[man] What's she doing
at his house anyway?
[Lily] Found this great
childhood picture.
Happy Father's Day, everybody.

Dad?

[Facebook tone]
[Lily] Bob Trevino likes your
comment: "Thanks for liking it."
[door opening]
Howdy!
What are you doing
here on a Saturday?
I'm always here on the weekends.
Yeah, I got your email.
I just didn't know what the
heck you was talking about.
Hey, have you seen any packages
personally addressed to me?
I... It's just...
It's a personal
thing for my wife.
If you know what
I mean. [laughs]
Right... Right...
Uh... Hey...
Hey, can I show you something?
I've been studying the
Alpha Trail's property
I really think you
should reconsider
and follow up and tell them that
your approval is pending
the inspection, okay,
of the foundation, of course.
Are you trying to soil my plans?
Oh...
No. No, of course not.
Look, I'm just trying
to prevent a prob...
Get it? 'Soil'... Land...
- Come on, man, that's funny!
- [laughs]
Yeah, I get it.
It's very... It's very funny.
- [laughs]
- Yeah. Yeah.
Anyway, uh, I saw your plans.
Didn't seem to be any issues.
We're good to go.
Come on...
Come on, Harlan.
Harlan, you told me.
You told me not to include
it in there, remember?
Look, if you ask me personally,
I think we should hold off
and wait for the land
test, because those results
may make the land uninsurable
or, even worse, unsafe.
- [box claps shut]
- Eureka!
Say hi to Jackie for me.
Oh... Uh...
Jeanie... Jeanie.
Right. My bad.
No... No worries.
Is she still cutting up
pictures of the two of you
and gluing it on
pieces of paper?
Scrapbooking. Yeah.
Yeah, she still is.
I got to go, man. My
youngest got a game.
I'm assistant coachin'.
I'm taking my oldest on
a college tour next week,
which is like... woof!
- Oh, congrats. Congrats.
- Thanks.
The work never ends. Never.
Hey, that's, that's...
- That's what I hear.
- See you later, pal.
[door slams]
[hole punch clicks]
[Bob] Well, that was
damn good! [laughs]
Thank you, honey.
You're welcome.
Sandra said her husband
and some of the guys
from her church went
out for a drink tonight.
Oh, yeah, they go every Monday
and they watch the game.
- [water running]
- Why don't you go?
Could be good for
you to get out a bit.
You know, I don't drink.
And, you know, sports
is not my thing.
I know, but you might
want to try saying 'yes'
when someone asks you to go out?
- [water shuts off]
- You know?
I just think it'd
be good for you
to get out a bit and
socialize, make some friends.
[hole punch]
How about if you and I
watch a movie tonight?
I... I can't.
I'm prepping for the
convention this weekend.
Oh, yeah, yeah, I
forgot. I forgot.
I got to head back
to the office anyhow.
I need to buy more
supplies tomorrow.
Really? More supplies?
Didn't you... didn't you
just go the other day?
I know, but Precious
Pages just put out a line
of vintage antique paper
I think we should get.
It's a little pricey,
but it's worth it.
You don't think you have enough
paper here already, though?
Well, not vintage,
translucent vellum.
Honey, it's just that...
I didn't get that raise yet,
and it's not that I'm worried,
but it's not, you know...
It's okay. [chuckles]
It's alright.
I just had an idea for something
I wanted to do for him.
I'll figure something else out.
[music begins]
Ah, what the hell! [chuckles]
You know, go. Go for it!
Get whatever you want, babe.
Oh, my God. Yes.
See? See? See?
Anything for that smile!

[Lily] Hi!
Are we related?
My name is Lily Trevino.
I'm only about an hour
away in northern Kentucky,
but I have relatives
in Wichita, too.
I guess there are probably
a lot of Trevinos all over.
[]
[Bob] Hi, Lily. I don't know.
My parents were from
Mexico. I'm an only child.
And my mother and I moved here
when I was three and a half.
We moved around
a lot after that.
But it could be possible.
[Lily] My dad's family
has roots in Spain.
My mom's were
European, too. I think.
She ran off when I was little,
and no one seems to
know where she went.
She got into drugs and, well...
[]
[Bob] My mother passed away
15 and a half years ago.
I still miss her every day.
Her name was Sofia.

[keyboard clicking]

[Bob] I bet you miss
your mother, too.

You're all done.
Need anything else?
Yeah. I need you to chill.
Relax!
Okay. [chuckles]
I can do that.

[Bob] Hi, Lily.
Just checking in on you,
hoping that your
day is going well.

[Lily] I'm okay.
Just hanging out with
the woman I work for.
She's cool.
[Bob] Oh, wow!
I am working in our trailer.
We're bidding for several jobs.
So, long days.
What do you do for her?
[Lily] I'm a live-in aide.
But I also like to write.
I'm trying to write poetry.
[Bob] Oh, wow. That's nice.
I don't have a creative
bone in my body.
But if you ever need a home
built safely and on time,
I'm your guy.
[laughs] He's funny.
Oh, yeah... it's...
my dad.
He's so funny.
Mmm...

get a coffee sometime?
[Bob] I... I can't.
I have to work.
[Lily] K, but YOLO!
YOLO?
[Lily] You only live once!
Yeah.
[clicks tongue] You
only live once...
[Facebook tone]
[Bob] I don't go out much,
but let me see what I can do.
[laughs]
Oh, no... [laughs]
What's so funny over there?
Jeanie, I think I may
have made a friend.
- Really?
- Uh-huh.
Well, that's wonderful.
Who?
Some young woman friended
me on the internet.
I don't even know
how she found me.
Honey...
I think you're
getting 'catfished'.
No...
Wait... What's 'catfish'?
It's when a fake person
on the internet pretends
to be your friend
so they can get
something from you.
Oh, no, no, no.
I don't think
that's what this is.
I mean, she's a Trevino.
Her name's Lily Trevino.
Trevino? Are you related?
I don't think so.
No. I mean, I think
she was looking
for some relatives or
something, and then...
Here. Look.
- [paper rustles]
- Careful, the paper...
[Bob] Sorry. Sorry. See, look.
Mm-mm...
What? What?
What?
- [Jeanie sighs]
- You don't think she's real?
She... Come on. Come on.
She wants to meet for
coffee and everything.
Are you serious?
[doubting laugh]
Uh, I mean...
I don't know.
I mean, you told me to go out
and make some friends, so I...
I meant someone your age!
Not some strange woman
from the internet!
[Jeanie grunts]
Oh...
Jeanie... No, no.
No, no, no. It's
not like that.
I mean, it's just
some... some kid
who doesn't have
anyone, you know?
I remember what that was like.
She's just a kid who
never caught a break.
Look, look. She's
screaming into the void.
No one even likes her posts or
replies back. [clicks tongue]
See that? See?
I don't know. Maybe
I... I don't know.
I thought maybe I could have
something to offer. [chuckles]
Okay.
Just don't give her any money.
Jeanie...
Come on.
[music plays over earphones]
[Lily] Here's a flashback
to my basketball days.
[Facebook tone]
[laughs]
My new dad is so kind.
- [man] Hm.
- Hm. [laughs]
[laughs]
[music from earphones plays]
[Daphne] Hello!?
Lily!?
Help! I'm in the bathroom!
Hello?! Help!
Oh! Oh! Daphne!
[Daphne] Lily! Lily!
Daphne! I'm coming! I'm coming!
I'm so... Okay. What? Oh! Oh!
I was trying to use
the bathroom on my own
and the damn toilet
wouldn't flush.
- I got you. I'm sorry!
- Oh my gosh!
And now there's water
overflowing everywhere!
- Almost there. Almost there.
- Okay.
[Lily] Okay. Oh, you good?
- [Daphne] Yes.
- Okay.
- [toilet gurgles]
- [Daphne] What's happening now?
[Lily] No, no, no, no, no!
Oh my God! That
toilet is possessed!
It's a mess! Lily,
I don't like this!
What are we going to do?
My dad's out of town!
[toilet gurgles]
It's okay, you
know. I'll just...
I'll call my dad.
Okay. All right, then I'm out.
[whimpers]
[door knocks]
Hi.
Hi!
- Lily?
- Yeah!
Hey. Is it still, uh...
- Still leaking?
- Yeah.
I-I-I'm going to go
around to the side
and I'm going to turn it off
and I'll meet you back here.
Yeah. Thank you for coming.
I know this is
weird. I'm sorry...
Oh, no. Don't worry about it.
- I love helping people.
- Thank you again.
[Bob] Yeah, be right back.
[Bob] All right, so I turned
the water off outside.
We should be good to go.
- Cool. [chuckles]
- May I?
Yeah, yeah.
Absolutely. Go ahead.
Alright.
Okay, let's see
what we got here.
[Bob mumbles]
[Lily] I hope it's not too bad.
[clunking]
I think I got it. [groans]
[grunts]
Wh-what happened to
'it's good to go?'
I mean, did you break it?
Um...
No, no, I... I didn't break it.
I mean...
- [laughs]
- What?
You should see your
face right now. Hold on.
My face? Why?
- Look.
- Oh, no, no, no. Come on. No.
- [camera clicks]
- [laughs]
Ahh... No, no. Delete that.
That's... that's horrible.
Please delete that.
Alright.
So...
[wrench clanks]
All right! All I had
to do was trim it...
[toilet flush]
And now you're good to go.
[sigh of relief]
Thank you.
This is embarrassing. I'm sorry.
Oh, no, no. Don't
even think about it.
I know but, I mean, I
don't know how I clogged it
so much that all this
water came out so...
Lily.
Yeah.
When you get older,
you're going to learn
that sometimes in life
...shit happens.
[Bob laughing]
What?
It's not that funny.
- Well, you should see your face.
- No.
- [camera clicks]
- [laughs]
- Thank you.
- All right, alright.
Next time, just make sure
you have the plunger
next to the toilet,
and this won't
happen to you. Okay?
So, where's your plunger?
Uh, no. The plunger.
This is all I have.
That's... That's
the toilet brush.
Oh...
[Bob] So, what are the
basic necessities of life
do you not have?
Umm... college education,
health insurance, car...
[laughs]
So, in other words, you
don't have any tools, huh?
Not really, no.
So, if a problem
arises, what do you use?
I mean, how do you fix it?
- [mumbles]
- [laughs]
[speaks Spanish], girl.
How are you even alive?
All right, kid, come on.
Are you sure you don't have
the other type of flashlight?
You know, the kind of you
wind up... zzzzzzzzz...
like that in case
the power goes out
and she has to, you know,
phone dies and whatnot?
I will make sure it's
on the next shipment.
- Yeah?
- Yup.
All right.
Sorry. Have to get
it next time, then.
- That's okay.
- Yeah? No worries.
No biggie.
- Hey, can you grab the rest?
- Mhmm.
I'll go get a cart.
[chuckles] Hi.
Uh... You know, I think
I'm gonna have to use
a few cards, if that's okay.
Oh! It's been taken care of.
Your dad got it.
[music begins]
Oh God. I can't
remember the last time
I drank a cup of
coffee this late.
Shoot... I might be up
all night. This is crazy.
Well, You don't have to drink it
if you don't want
to just cause I am.
- Yeah, but... 'YOLO!, ' right?
- [laughs]
[phone rings]
I'm sorry.
Oh shoot, I have to
take this. I'm sorry.
No, no, no, no, no worries.
I mean, is it okay
if I sit here?
- Yeah.
- All right.
Hi, Daphne!
Hey, did y'all fix that
demon toilet from hell?
- Yup! All good to go.
- Good. Where're you?
Oh... we're at D. Nalley's.
[whispers] Are you still
with your ex-boyfriend?
Yeah. I had to
come to his place
for some make-out
and takeout. Phew.
Don't worry about it. I
won't be out too late.
If my memory serves me correctly
he's cute to look at, but...
Okay, I gotta go!
Have fun with your dad!
Eh... [awkwardly chuckles]
Uhm...
Wow. Your dad?
Your dad?
I mean, I don't
know. I'm confused.
Is something...
What's going on here?
It's just Daphne... y' know...
I mean, did I know your mother?
- No. No.
- No.
Well, actually, I
really don't know.
- But... maybe?
- I...
I didn't... [coughs]
I mean, can we just
go outside and talk?
I just need a little fresh air.
[continues coughing]
[exhaling]
Okay, listen, kid...
I've always, always
used protection, okay?
And I haven't touched another
woman since I met Jeanie.
How old are you?
- Uhm... I'm 25.
- 25...
Was your mother
the estate lady I messed
around with when my moth...
No. No, she wasn't.
It was the adjuster who came
to my house to assess...
No, Bob. No. It's
nothing like that.
No?
I...
I may have let Daphne believe
that you were my dad.
Why did you let her
think I was your dad?
I'm not your dad.
You understand? I need
you to understand that.
That I'm not your
dad. I'm nobody's dad.
You... you don't have
to be so mean about it.
I'm...
I'm not being mean. I'm
just a little upset.
I just need you to understand
that I'm not your father.
I know but...
You talk to me!
And... and you listen,
and you give me advice.
And you liked all my posts!
I'm sorry if there was
a misunderstanding,
but that was not my intent.
Come on! Come on, where you
going? Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Come on... Lily!
- Lily! Wait! Wait!
- [car horn blares]
- [Lily panting]
- Hey!
- Watch where you're goin'!
- [man] My bad. Sorry.
Lily! Lily! Stop.
Stop. Please stop.
I know I fucked up! Okay, Bob?
No, I never said that!
I befriended a stranger
on the internet
so I could feel
like I have like...
like a family like everyone
else! Or something...
I don't even know,
honestly. And just...
You know what? I
know how this goes.
Okay, so we could just,
please, can we just not do it?
Please! Just rip
the Band-Aid off.
Just go home. I'm so
sorry. I'm so sorry!
Okay? It's fine. I'm...
We don't have to see
each other again.
And it's okay... It's fine.
Okay, okay, okay.
Could you stop talking
for one second, please?
Can you please listen
to me for a second?
Look, just because I'm not
your father doesn't mean that
we can't be friends, okay?
All right?
And I know, I know we just met
a couple hours ago.
But I care. I really do.
And I don't know why, but I do.
And when you care
about somebody,
you don't just stop talking to
them because you have a problem.
No, no. You, you, you work it
out and you talk it through.
Okay, so...
let's talk.
Yeah? Come on...
[inaudible]
So you never wanted to be a dad?
Oh, no, no, no. It's
not... It's not that.
Well, Jeanie and I...
we... we lost a child.
Oh.
His name was David.
I'm sorry.
No, no, don't be. Don't be.
We knew when he was born
that we weren't going
to have long with him.
It's just... 'cause
kids with his condition
95% of them don't
live past 18 months.
But our David...
Our David lived 21
months and two days.
I was so proud of him.
So you see it's not that
I didn't want to be a dad.
I mean, I was...
Am!
I mean, I don't know
how it works, but...
And Jeanie...
Man, she started
preserving everything.
Every outfit he ever wore,
jars of food he ate from...
because... because he loved...
he loved canned peaches.
Don't know why that boy was
obsessed with canned peaches.
But we had to buy them
in bulk. It was so crazy.
And, uh, she kept every single
one of his hospital bracelets.
But for me, it was...
it was too painful
to look at all that stuff.
Just wasn't for me.
And, you know...
it's never been the same since.
Couldn't you guys
still have a kid?
At our age?
Oh, God, no. No.
I mean, we got a bit
of a late start anyhow.
And, you know, I want,
I want to protect
our privacy here, but...
I mean, grief can take
a toll on a marriage,
boy, let me tell you.
You know, then she found
scrapbooking and she was
able to handle her feelings,
and we managed.
And boom! You know.
It works for her. I
work all the time.
And here we are. [chuckles]
That's it.
Hey... umm...
This was nice. I'm
glad we did it.
Same.
We should do it again sometime.
Oh! I have next Tuesday off.
- Oh yeah?
- Yeah, I think so.
D'ya like sports?
Check, please.
[Lily] You ready?
[Bob] Ugh... Look...
I, um... I think...
I think I'm just going to
sit it out and watch you.
That's not how you
play the game, Bob.
I suck at basketball, okay?
That's fine. We'll just
play a little game.
- No, it's not fine. Not okay.
- It absolutely is fine.
Seriously, just watch me.
- All right?
- All right.
- [ball bounces]
- Simple. You can do it.
- Seriously?
- Uh-hmm.
- Just do that?
- Yeah.
You got a lot of faith in me
- that I don't have in myself.
- Yeah.
[laughs] Bob! What is that?
[Lily laughs]
I just can't. I
don't- I can't play.
Oh! Okay.
[Lily] You're leaving?
Oh, my God! Okay...
I'm kidding!
Did you think I'd really leave?
[both laughing]
Funny!
- All right.
- Oh, hey, hey.
Why did Cinderella always
lose at basketball?
Cause she ran away
from the ball.
She ran away... She
ran away from the...
You get it? She ran?
- Yeah, no. I get it.
- And it works for any sport.
Baseball... Uhm...
Obviously not hockey because
that's a puck, but...
Ran from the ball.
Ran from the ball.
Come on, just try!
[chuckles] Bob... come on...
- [Bob] What? That's incredible.
- This isn't funny.
Okay, I get your point.
You brought me here
to humiliate me.
Listen, I didn't know
you were that bad.
That bad!
[Bob] So, wait...
The competition's going
to be in the hotel?
Yeah, they've redesigned it
to make it look
like Machu Picchu.
I've always wanted
to go to Peru.
And I heard they have these
little boats that take you
from casino to casino,
just like Italy.
Hey, maybe I can come with you.
We can go... go dancing.
Huh?
You can't.
You won't be able
to see the meteors
with all the lights of Vegas.
Wow. You remembered.
Of course I remembered.
You should go out to the
property to watch them.
That's where you
can really see them.
Why don't you come with me?
- Come on, let's go camping.
- [laughs softly]
[bag zips]
[Bob] Hi, umm... It's Bob.
Is this thing even recording?
Okay. You said it was going to
be easier to do voice memos,
but it doesn't really feel easy.
Hey, anyway, I used to
go camping with my dad
so I'm glad you can tag along.
I already packed my extra tent
and everything we might need.
Bye? Oh, God... I don't know...
[car pulling up]
[car horn honks]
Hi!
[talk radio playing]
- Hey!
- Hello.
Thanks for letting me
tag along and everything.
Yeah.
Thanks for joining me.
Of course.
Hey, can you put a seatbelt on?
- Oh, yeah - Thank
you. Thank you.
I really wanted Jeanie
to come with us,
but, you know, she's gotta
defend her annual championship.
- Ooh.
- Yeah.
I can't wait for the
two of you to meet.
Can't wait to meet her.
You know, I've never
been camping before.
What!?
No!
No!
[birds chirping]
[Lily] I saw the sign.
'La Familia Trevino'
Trevino means 'three vines.'
Yup.
I'd like to learn Spanish,
but my dad doesn't speak it.
Hey, I'll teach it
to you, if you want.
Here and there.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
Gracias!
- [speaking Spanish]
- [chuckles]
[Bob] It's so weird.
They usually show
up right about now.
I don't know why
they're so late.
[Lily] Does this
happen every year?
[Bob] Oh, yeah.
The Perseids happen every
late July and August.
And they're named after
the Perseus Constellation.
Huh...
How do you know so
much about this stuff?
Well, when my father
left us... [chuckles]
...reading made me
feel less alone.
So I read everything I
could get my hands on.
And I also collected rocks,
which drove my mom crazy
because she'd always
find them in my pockets
when she was doing laundry.
I don't know. I've
always wanted to be
a geologist or an
astronomer, I guess.
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
Why didn't you?
I don't know. I guess
life got in the away.
See, these... these
showers happen
only when the earth intersects
with the path of a comet.
And I know it's just debris
shooting through the sky.
But it's one of the few things
that still remains magical.
It's also believed
that shooting stars are
the tears of Saint Lawrence,
listening to the wishes
of us mortals down here.
Is that why you come out here?
To make a wish?
Every summer for
the past 10 years.
[fire crackling]
Is it hard for
you to talk about?
Yeah, well, Jeanie and I...
we don't talk about it.
We just... just never have.
Why not?
Wouldn't it help? I mean...
You know, we were going to
build our home right here.
Right there.
When Jeanie got pregnant,
I bought this property
and I've been paying
on it ever since,
but I haven't done a damn thing.
But the plan is to build
on it before we retire,
because you got to build
up those happy hormones.
Y'know what I mean? Because
nature will do it for you...
animals...
You've ever... You
ever had a pet?
I don't trust
myself with animals.
I'm afraid I might
accidentally hurt them.
Aw, no, no. Now, why
would you think that?
I had a dog once.
When I was eight.
He was a little Maltese mix.
- Aw, cute!
- He didn't have the long hair.
Like the show dogs or
anything like that.
- He was definitely a mutt.
- Mutts are better.
His name was Charlie.
I found him when the
owners next door moved out.
They locked him in a garage
without food or water.
Oh, no! Oh, my God,
that's so horrible.
He was skittish at first.
Oh, my gosh! I loved
him so much. [chuckles]
I didn't have any friends
because we moved around so much.
So I took Charlie
everywhere with me.
I told him about my whole life.
And, uh...
He never yelled at me.
He's just happy to be with me.
And I was so happy to have him.
That's so sweet.
Yeah, well...
One day, I was in a good mood,
so I was listening to music
and dancing, and I really
wanted to dance with Charlie.
So I, umm... I picked him
up by his front legs...
And I didn't know.
He yelped.
My dad saw the
whole thing. So...
He yanked him from my
arms and said, uh...
"Clearly, you don't know how to
take care of an animal,
so you can't have him."
Then he took Charlie
to the pound.
- I abused an abused dog.
- Oh, no, no.
You didn't abuse the
puppy. No, you didn't.
I mean, you were just a
kid. You didn't know better.
Come on. Come on. Your father
could have explained it to you.
I would've done it the right
way if I had just known.
Hey, of course you would've.
Of course you would've.
Mira, Lily...
[speaking Spanish]
I don't know what that
means. I'm sorry. [laughs]
It means we're all, we're
all a bit broken, you know...
But, you know what...
You're gonna be fine.
I promise.
[]
Oh, shoot! There it is!
Look! Look! Look!
See right there?
Oh, wow! Oh, my gosh!
That's beautiful.
Oh, my God...
Oh! Over there! Look it!
[Lily laughs]
[Bob laughs] Oh, my
God! It's beautiful!
See right there? Right there,
right there, right there.
[Lily] Where? Where, where,
where? Oh! There it goes!
[Bob] Oh, man!
[music rises]
[Bob] Hey.
Yeah, just toss everything
in there. It'll be fine.
Alright. Don't want
it bangin' around.
- [text alert]
- [lid slams]
Oh, hey!
Hey, Jeanie just won
the championship again!
Dang it! I knew that
woman would get it.
Whoooooo!
- Pretty badass.
- Yeah!
It's cool they have
scrapbooking competitions!
Oh, hey! Shoot! I forgot.
I got a... I gotta
make a quick stop
on the way back by your place.
- Is that alright with you?
- Sure! For what?
Oh... It's a surprise.
A surprise?
[birds chirping]
[woman's voice] Coming!
Oh, hey, hey, hey. I'm sorry.
I know you're closing,
but we were running late.
We won't be long. Can we
take a quick look at them?
Thank you! Thank you!
[dogs bark]
[]
[door rattles open]
[Bob] Oh. Oh-ho-ho.
- Oh, what a good boy!
- [dog whimpers]
Look at that! Look at him!
How cute!
Come on, mister. Come on...
[dog whimpering]
He's so cute! [chuckles]
It's okay. Now you go.
No...
Come on. You can dance
with him. Look, look, look.
[laughs]
You just gotta hold him
completely, that's all.
- No.
- You wanna try?
No. I'm good, thank you.
You can do it.
Ahhh, there ya go, there
ya go, there ya go.
you! He loves you!
[cries]
[music swells]
[Lily sobs] Hi.
[Bob] Come on.
[Lily sobs]
[inaudible]
[Lily] Thank you so much!
Oh, my God. Hey. Hey, buddy.
- Is he licking you?
- Oh, my goodness! Hi!
Go for it. Come on.
Where did you get that from?
[Lily laughing on video]
- [Bob] Oh, buddy...
- [Lily] Oh, my goodness!
[Lily and Bob laugh]
[Lily on voicemail] Hey, Bob.
Hope you got home okay.
Maybe I will get one
of my own one day.
...when I'm ready.
No one's ever done anything
like that for me before.
Thank you.
[quietly crying]
Congratulations.
[sighs]
Wanna show me the
book you made for him?
[]
- Oh, my God. We were so young.
- [laughs]
- Can you believe that's us?
- Mm-hmm.
- That was our first sonogram.
- Yeah.
And this page is all
his favorite color.
Do you remember how
his eyes would light up
when he saw green?
[Bob] Yeah.
Yeah, he loved that
little stuffed fro-
- Frog.
- And the sound it would make.
Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit...
[laughs]
I looked it up and he probably
would have been studying
rocks and soil and
minerals and maybe even
atoms and energy and
different types of matter.
I bet he would have gotten
a love of science from you.
[]
[Jeanie] I always thought
he would like baseball.
Do you remember
how he used to grip
that little rubber baseball?
- Oh, my God.
- So tight.
I could never get
it out of his hand.
He's was such a born
athlete, that kid.
[sighs]
That he wouldn't
have gotten from you.
No, I guess not. [chuckles]
[]
[Daphne] Lily!
- [Lily chuckles to herself]
- Lily!
- What's going on with you?
- Nothing.
Seriously, you've
been half here.
It's been going on for a while.
Sorry. It's just,
um... family stuff.
Well, you... you
wanna talk about it?
It's kind of embarrassing.
Yeah. I'm sorry. I'll
pay more attention.
I know you don't see
me as a real friend.
What!?
You leave as soon as
your hours are done.
You just go hide in your room.
Daphne!
I used to hang with
my girls, but...
once everything
progressed, well...
It's just... I don't
know. I... [sighs]
It's like
looking at a life that I
don't get to have anymore.
And I find myself trying
to hide all this stuff.
It's really exhausting.
I'm just saying...
it means something to
me when we hang out.
I just wish you were more
present and open with me.
I wouldn't judge
you or anything.
Okay, well... [clears throat]
You know that man
that fixed our toilet?
- You mean your dad?
- Yeah...
He's not really my dad.
Who is he?
Uhh... [chuckles]
He's a guy from the internet.
That's really weird.
You said you wouldn't judge!
He's, like, 80 years old!
Daphne! He's not 80.
He's like, what? 50?
- Same thing!
- 60, maybe.
What are you doing meeting
50-year-olds on the internet?
It's a little hard to explain,
but my dad stopped
talking to me,
so I went searching for him,
and then I accidentally found
another Bob Trevino,
and he's so nice.
We just started talking.
We're just friends!
You chat with guys online.
Yeah! Our age!
You told me to open
up, so I opened up.
Your dad must've been
a real piece of work
if you needed a fake dad.
[chuckles]
You know what? Let's
go get dressed.
I got the perfect place for you.
And you totally need it.
Okay...
[loud smash and music]
[man] Oh, I love you,
I love you, I love you!
[bell rings]
[screaming]
[screaming]
[man] Okay! Okay! Okay!
- [woman] Oh!
- [man] Oh, God.
[giggles with excitement]
[man] Congrats. Oh.
Phew. Nice work.
[exhales] Breathe
it out. Breathe...
Thank you.
[Daphne] That's awesome.
[man] All right, you're next.
You got 5 minutes. Smash away.
And welcome to The Rage Room.
- Thank you.
- Now get in there.
All right! Come
on, girl. Let's go!
[giddy giggle]
- [heavy rock music plays]
- All right. Come on!
[Daphne] Okay.
Hit something!
Let's go!
Get angry!
[Daphne sighs]
- I can't.
- What!?
Of course you can!
No...
No! No! No!
Pick that back up
and let it out!
Like... like a primal
scream. Like this...
[screams]
[heavy rock music plays]
Girl...
[text ding]
[Bob] Nos vemos pronto!
- [text dings]
- That means "See you soon."
Is it weird that I'm
angry you can't get angry?
Aww, Daphne. I'm sorry.
Listen, let's just stay here
and watch people
smash more shit.
I can't. I made plans
with Bob to play pinball.
Bob! Eww! Okay. Bye.
- [phone rings]
- I mean, he's calling me.
- Whatever!
- I'll see you in a second.
Hi, Bob.
[Robert] Wait, what
happened to Dad?
[sighs]
Dad...
Well, don't sound so surprised.
Why wouldn't I call
my own daughter?
I haven't heard back
from you in a while.
Well, I needed some time.
I did some thinking,
and I want to talk.
That's great.
I'd love to talk.
Okay, well, I'll come your
way and make it easier on you
since you don't
have a car and all.
Okay, um...
I'm free from work next Tuesday.
I could be at D.
Nally's in an hour.
I can't right now. I'm
going to go meet someone.
I mean, I wouldn't call you
if it weren't important.
- No, I understand, but...
- Hey, hey, hey...
We're all each other's got.
Well, what could be more
important than family?
I'm trying to make
up here, Lily.
Don't blow me off.
Dad! We didn't make plans.
Well, we're making
them now, aren't we?
[music rises]
Okay. Fine.
I'll meet you at D. Nalley's.
Okay, I'll see you soon then.
[]
[Bob] I've been waiting here.
Okay. Well, I can't
get a hold of him.
He doesn't pick up.
I text. Nothing.
Okay, but...
Yeah, okay. All right.
I'm sure. I'm sure.
- Sheesh!
- [car tires roll over gravel]
[car door opens]
Here for the walk-through.
You're an hour and a half late.
I can't. I can't.
I got to go, man.
[equipment slams]
I'm meeting somebody.
Harlan said you're
always available.
Well, Harlan's not
always right, now, is he?
[chuckles]
Can't. I got... I gotta go.
Sorry.
[Lily] I have to
reschedule. I'm sorry.
Aww, man.
[engine starts]
[jukebox playing]
[restaurant door chimes]
[door closes]
[Robert] Well, hey
there, hey there!
Oh, my God!
This place is so far away!
Next time let's, uh...
let's pick a place
a little closer to me, alright?
I mean, I'm in my 60s now.
Dad, you just turned 60.
Well, you'll see. You'll see.
[both laugh]
It's good to see you.
Yeah, it's good to see you,
too. Hey, you look good!
Thank you. I feel good.
Good.
Do you want anything?
Oh, no, no...
These diners, you
know, they overcharge.
Hmm.
So, how you been?
You know, I've been doing okay.
Yeah, uh...
I've been doing some thinkin'...
And, uh... uh... I've got...
I've got some stuff that I
wanted to share with you.
All right? And, uh...
uh... we can take turns.
Uh... I'll go first and talk
and you can listen and, uh,
you know, like they do on TV.
And then once I'm done
talking, you can talk.
Uh... How's that sound?
That sounds very
mature and reasonable.
Okay. Here you go...
[Lily] Wow. You've been
doing a lot of thinking.
I have.
Hmm.
[Lily] Dad... um...
Is this an, umm... is
this an itemized list
of all the expenses
of being my father?
It's a start.
[chuckles]
This.
That's what it cost
me to raise you.
[papers rustling]
- Dad! There's baby food on here.
- Yeah!
You seriously think
that I owe you for this?
I'm not saying that you owe me.
I wanted you to know
what you've cost me.
What... what about you?
To be fair, you've
cost me a lot, too.
Wow, okay...
Well, well...
you know, I may not have
been the best father.
But I'm sure a better
father than what I got.
Dad. Come on... Dad...
No, I...
Dad, please. Can
you just look at me?
- Hey.
- Dad.
God, Lily...
I mean, one day you're not going
to have me to pick on anymore.
Dad, I'm not picking on you.
A relationship is
a two-way street.
Okay?
But is it my turn to talk now?
Well, sure. That
doesn't seem to...
Yeah, go ah...,
mm-hmm, go ahead.
Okay... Okay.
Thank you.
I made a new friend.
His name is Bob, too.
Okay. A boyfriend?
No, no.
Bob is your age. Just a friend.
What's he do?
Um, he's a... a manager.
He works with architects
and contractors.
Ooh.
That must be nice.
Yeah.
- I need to borrow some money.
- [Lily laughs]
Dad, I don't have any
money. You know that.
Well, what about your friend?
I mean,
is he, uh, helping
you financially?
Bob?
No!
But he would?
I... guess maybe if
I really needed...
I'm sorry.
I'm not understanding the
point of this question.
Okay... I'm just saying, like,
if... if... if you needed him...
I mean, let's just say
that your, your dad,
he needed something?
[laughs]
Y'know, I can't believe
that I actually thought
that you wanted to see me.
God, I'm so stupid.
I'm not going to ask
Bob for money, Dad!
I cannot do that.
You look just like your mom.
And you act like her, too.
Just sort of a
constant reminder.
I don't know how you
think that makes me feel.
You know, I could have
dropped her on the spot
the day she relapsed, but,
no, stupid me, I stayed.
And when... when she promised
me that she was on the pill,
I believed her.
And then even after we split
and the judge deemed
her incompetent...
Who took you in!? Who!?
I know you did.
Do you know where
you would be without me?
Dead!
You'd be dead without me.
You only care about yourself.
Thankless.
[keys clanking]
[papers rustle]
No. I'm gonna leave this
with you. You carry that.
Thankless!
- Thankless!
- [door opens]
Ohhh.
[door closes]
[]
[Lily] Hi, Bob!
How've you been?
I've been doing
a lot of thinking
and I... I wrote this poem.
You actually inspired it.
I hope you like it.
[]
[whistles]
- [mouse clicks]
- Hey...
[door opens]
[door slams]
- Hey!
- Somebody got hurt, Bob!
- On your watch!
- On my watch?
What are you talking about? Who?
You left the Parker job.
The inspector tried
to do it on his own
and he fell and
he broke his hip.
He's got a P.I.,
man. He's suing us!
- What!?
- What're we gonna do?
Okay, I guess your raise
will have to wait, bud.
God! How could you
let this happen?
No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, but this has
nothing to do with me, okay?
You shouldn't have left.
You should have stayed there.
I thought you cared about
safety, but you don't.
Oh, I care about safety, okay?
I'll show you.
I'll show you how much I care.
What the hell are those? We
don't need this right now!
This is every material
safety data sheet
you told me to dismiss
in the last few years.
That you told me
to just throw away.
But you know what?
I kept them in case
anybody needed them, in
case anybody got hurt.
And these are the receipts
for every single inspection
you told me to skip.
But I did on my own,
out of my own pocket
to keep people safe here.
Okay? So don't tell me that
I don't care about safety.
Well...
if you don't like the job,
then maybe you
shouldn't be doing it.
Well, you know what?
You know what? For
once, you're right.
You're right.
I am right!
Wait... Wait a sec...
What are you doing?
What does it look
like I'm doing?
Hey, man... Hey, listen...
Hold up! Hold up! I don't...
I don't... I don't...
I mean, you can't go.
You and me, hombre!
Fuck!
Come on, man.
We're a team!
Come on. Come on.
Let's talk about it.
I need your help.
[Bob] It's too late for that.
Don't leave me like this.
You wouldn't have left my dad.
I'll look at them receipt books.
- What about a raise?
- [phone rings]
- Whatever you want.
- [Jeanie] Hi, honey.
- Jeanie.
- Hi.
- Guess what.
- What?
You're never gonna believe this.
- I've got some good news.
- You do?
- I quit my job!
- Really!?
- Uh-huh. I feel so happy.
- It's about time.
- Oh, yeah.
- Wow.
Let's celebrate!
Honey?
[breathes deeply]
Ohhh...
Bob?
[Lily] Hi, Bob! Are you okay?
[sighs]
[startled panting]
Hi, Bob!
It's Lily.
Sorry for sending you
this message so early.
I haven't heard back
from you in a few days.
You okay?
Did I do something wrong?
[]
Hi, Bob! It's me again.
Sorry, I know I've been
sending like so many messages,
but I'm literally free anytime,
so you can just call me.
I just want to know where
you are and where you've been
and if everything's okay.
All right. Sorry. I
know I'm rambling, bye!
I'm actually on the bus on the
way to your place right now.
I have about two more transfers,
so it might take a
little bit of time,
but could you please answer
me when you get this message?
I'm very worried.
Thank you so much.
[]
[door knocks]
Bob!
It's Lily!
Bob! It's me!
Bob!
[man mutters]
[Lily] Just trying to get in
and make sure you're okay.
Bob! I'm gonna try and come in!
Bob!
- Bob!
- [woman] Police!
Step back from the house.
Put your hands where I
can see them. Hands up.
Come on down. Get
off the recycling.
Let's go!
You mind telling
me what's going on?
[police radio chatter]
You gotta call someone
to come get you.
I'm not just gonna
leave you out here.
There's nobody.
[woman] Come on. Nobody?
Uh-uh.
You don't have any
family? Any friends?
Boyfriend?
Nobody at all?
No.
There's someone. Come on...
[police radio chatter]
Yeah.
- [car door closes]
- You okay?
You doing alright?
It's okay. It's okay.
[engine starts]
[heart monitor beeps]
[text ding]
[multiple texts ding]
[Jeanie gasps]
[big breath]
You're awake!
[Daphne] Girl! Where
the hell are you?
The backup aide is here
for now, and I'm fine.
But I'm worried about you.
Seriously, I need
you to call me back.
I need proof of life.
[pages flipping]
You cut me out?!
It's all going to my
girlfriend when I die.
Whoever she is.
The family album.
Why did you cut me
out of all the photos?
Oh... well, no, not all of them.
Dad, I'm your daughter.
Why would you cut me
out of any of them?
Oh... okay.
That was Caroline.
Remember?
She didn't want to
date a guy with kids.
- Caroline?
- Yeah, yeah.
The one with the red hair.
Dad, I have literally no idea
who you're talking about!
And the highlights.
And the little dog that
I gave her for her 40th.
Fat lot of good that did me.
Did I... Did I just hear you
say you gave her a puppy?
You took Charlie away from me,
and you gave this woman a puppy?
- Who's Charlie?
- My dog, Dad!
That was a long time ago.
Plus, she was a gold digger.
She ran off with some rich guy.
Baby, it doesn't matter.
You cut me out of
our family photos
for a woman that you
dated for like 5 minutes
and barely remember!
Just because she
didn't want kids!?
Let's just settle down, Lily.
Let's just calm down
and breathe. [inhales]
- Breathe, Lily.
- Dad, stop! Stop saying my name!
- Lily...
- I do not need to breathe!
What I need is a dad.
I was just a little kid. What
did I do to deserve this?
All right.
I don't know what's
going on with you
but you need to
show some respect
and apologize to your father.
I'm sorry, okay?
I am so sorry
that I cramped your dating
life when I was four.
I'm sorry that I breathe wrong.
- I'm sorry. Okay?
- Hey! Calm down!
I'm sorry that you're such
a bitter, negative person
and nothing is ever your fault!
I said to cool it! All
right? Settle down!
My friend Bob was a stranger
to me two months ago
and I think that I have
more sweet memories with him
than I've had with
you my whole life!
I'm Bob!
And where was he
when you needed him?
- Oh...
- Yeah.
- [yells]
- [bottle shatters]
You know what? Maybe
it's my turn for once.
Hey, don't you do it!
[plates shattering]
[screams]
[breathing sharply]
Don't you... you
just care about me,
even just, like,
a little bit!?!?
I love you.
But I can't...
I can't keep abandoning
myself for you anymore, okay?
I can't keep putting myself
on the bottom of the list.
I'll never, ever
be enough for you.
I'll never fix this.
And no matter how
much I apologize
or how much I give to you,
you'll never just, like...
love me!
It's okay.
You can go ahead
and give up on me.
Go.
You're just like everybody else.
Dad! I cannot play this
role for you anymore!
Now, if you want to
meet me in the middle,
we can work on this together.
And you know where to find me.
Also, you can clean this
whole mess up yourself, too.
How you think you're
gonna get home?
I'll call an Uber!
[door slams]
- [smashing]
- [screaming]
Whooo-hooo! Whooo-hooo!
Whoooooo!
[Daphne] Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
[screams]
[laughs]
Whooo-hoo-hoo!
Whooo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
[bell rings]
[both scream]
[both scream]
[both laugh]
Dude!
[laughing]
[Daphne] Okay, look!
I took one of your
Facebook photos,
and I turned your
bad dad into a meme.
Look how mad he is!
Look at him. Just mad.
I'm gonna call it #grumpydad.
Zoom in, zoom in, zoom in.
[Daphne laughs]
Look at him!
Look at him. His arms
crossed on top of a horse.
Like, really!?
[laughs]
Look at this one on
the rollercoaster.
- [Daphne] The rollercoaster!
- [Lily laughs]
Look at him on a rollercoaster!
Listen, I'm about
to make some more.
Cause this is, this is too good.
[hopeful music begins]
It's too good! It's too good!

are closer to Earth.

[dog barking]

[whirling]
[circuit clicks]
[Lily] Got my first car!
[]
Hi, Bob. I've been thinking.
Maybe you were right.
Maybe I am going to be okay.
I hope you are too.
[pen scratching]
That's pretty much it.
Good.
You didn't cry this time.
Um, I've done a little work
since our last session.
[laughs]
And so have you.
I guess I have.
[]
Bye!
[Facebook tone]
Oh, no.
Lily!
What's going on?
Oh, I have to go to
Southern Indiana.
Why?
- It's Bob.
- Oh.
What're you guys about to do?
Like hang out or something?
Umm, no.
He passed.
Oh!
I'm sorry.
Um, I called the
home care agency
and they're finding someone
to come in to help you today.
That hot guy you
liked from before.
[bag zips]
[Daphne] Wait! Wait!
I'm coming with you.
Oh, no, no, no. It's okay.
Thank you, but I'll...
I'll be fine.
No. Are you sure?
Actually, will you come with me?
I think I need a friend.
[gasps]
Go get my keys!
[music rises]
- Over there.
- Oh.
Okay.
[people chattering]
[sighs]
Hey...
I got one for you.
What do you call it when
a cardiology student
flunks out?
Heart failure. [laughs]
Thank you.
[sniffs]
Hi, Jeanie. [sniffs]
I'm Lily.
I know.
I'm sorry for your loss.
We got a call from the neighbors
that you were at our place.
Oh. I'm sorry about that.
I was just really worried.
I have Bob's phone.
I listened to his voicemail
and I got your messages and...
...and all of your texts.
I thought about writing
you back, but I...
It was a lot.
I didn't mean to.
We're friends.
He was my friend.
You two come with me.
[birds chirping]
[door shuts]
I made this.
I want you to have it.
What is this?
[Bob] Hi, Lily.
I'm sorry I haven't
gotten back to you.
Um, I've been... I've been sick.
I hope you like the
book Jeanie made.
I think it turned out great.
When Bob was in the hospital,
he opened up a lot,
shared a lot with me about
your conversations.
It's his thoughts and
feelings... dreams...
[crying]
[Jeanie] He saved every photo,
every receipt.
He made it easy for me.
[crying laughter]
You see this...
It's cute!
This last page was
Bob's favorite.
He loved your poem.
"I treasure this
brief time we share,
I hope that you're by now aware,
My door is always open,
Where you can rely on me.
So here's to the
ocean oh so blue.
Here's to friends,
both old and new.
[Bob] My special friends,
the ones like you,
are chosen family."
[crying]
Thank you so much!
It's just awkward
just to watch y'all.
Come in. Come in.

Um...
My boyfriend and
I, we-we-broke up.
Don't worry, though...
I'm... It's going to be okay.
I'm sure we're going
to get back together.
Yeah.
Um... I know you used to write
poetry when you were younger.
I did.
I actually wrote a poem
about this breakup.
You wanna see?
Uh, no, that's...
that's too small.
- I can't...
- I can make it bigger.
Oh, look. Hold on. But
let me show you somethin'.
Let me show you
somethin'. There!
All right. All right?
I mean, she's no oil painting.
What do you mean,
Dad? She's pretty.
Well, I mean,
she's not gonna win
swimsuit competitions,
that's for sure.
Isn't she in her sixties?
I hope I look like
that when I'm her age.
Yeah. No, I guess. I guess.
But this one. Oh...
This is gonna break your heart.
She got a great body, right?
- Uh-huh.
- But... Oh, no!
A face to protect it! [laughs]
Uh-uh.
She... She looks nice, too.
Permanent Halloween.
[chuckles]
Oh no! Slim pickings
over at Shady Oaks. Oh.
I'm the youngest one there.
I won the pickleball
competition. [chuckles]
They give me a big
trophy and everything.
I'm like the Michael
Jordan of Shady Oaks.
Those old women, they
love that. They love that.
Here, let me show
you another one.
Well, I tell you what.
I'm gonna text these to you,
all my options later,
so you can look at them on
your phone and just tell me...
- Okay.
- ...which one you think
is my best bet.
All right?
Bleugh, bleugh. [sighs]
I'm so tired of paying
to watch women eat.
Wha... I-I think
you're supposed to
be getting to know them,
you know, like talking...
I know, but why do you
need food for that?
You know what? I guess...
- I guess you don't!
- Yeah.
And also, listen,
I think it's time
to lock it down
with one of them.
And I'm pretty sure it's
this one right here.
- Mmm.
- That's Helene.
That's my frontrunner.
Hey, I think that she would
be pretty good for you too.
You know? Fill a space
that you didn't have.
We've been on a couple of dates,
and I think it's time
to close the deal.
And, uh, women like family.
That's great, Dad.
I mean, who doesn't
love family, right?
Women like meeting family!
- You!
- Oh! Me!
You, me, tomorrow night 7 p.m.
El Capparal.
It's Taco Tuesdays!
I'm gonna pull
out my black suit.
So you know I mean business.
But I'm gonna need you to, uh...
Oh, I mean, I... I
have nicer things.
I mean, I just
came back from work
with Daphne and her therapist...
Tomorrow night.
I'll see you then?
- Yeah.
- This could be fun.
[tapping table] You and me.
Back in the saddle again.
Oh, crap... I forgot
my wallet in the car.
- Uh, do you want me to...
- Oh, no. You're fine.
- You're fine. I got it.
- Okay. All right.
I'll get you later.
I'll get you later.
- Okay?
- Yeah, absolutely.
[chuckles] All right.
- But wear something nice?
- Yeah.
[cellphone ding]
[sigh]
I'm starting my LLC.
For my line of custom hair
dyes and nail polishes.
Melony and Renae and I
were supposed to start
this together, but...
They're gonna regret
it when it blows up.
And I'm gonna be driving
a Lamborghini SUV
when I get better.
Or maybe I'll get a jet
with a couple of pilots.
Ooh, Monday?
Let's look for some office
spaces for my salon.
Oh, wait... you have
the MRI next Monday.
What?
No! Let's just skip it!
I mean, look at me. I'm fine!
[clicks tongue,
sighs] Daphne...
I'm sorry. We can't skip it.
I know, I know it's
scary, but, you know,
I'll be there just
like last time.
All right. I guess so.
What are you gonna
call your company, huh?
I was thinking 'Dye Lux.'
[keyboard clicking]
Hello. How are you?
- Been better.
- Oh.
I'm so sorry to hear that.
I hope the rest of your
day is great. [chuckles]
I'm here to see a counselor.
It's my first time.
[sigh]
[drawer closes]
[papers rustling]
[sighs] Okay, just
fill this out.
[man sighs]
Can I borrow a pen, please?
A pen.
Okay...
I'm gonna need this
pen back. Okay?
[mouthing] Okay.
Bring it back to you.
I'm going to give
you many, many ways
that you can check
in with yourself
as you listen and
say, "Do I do that?"
"Am I doing that? Is this
what I'm up to?" [laughs]
So let's talk
about self-abandonment
and being self-abandoning...
[laughs]
How do you abandon
yourself, right? Like...
Are you really
getting this business
about self-abandonment?
Because it really does need to
be something you really get.
You want to be your
own best friend.
I know that's cliche,
but you want to do
what you would...
[woman] So... what
brings you in today?
Well, I broke up with
the guy I was seeing.
At least I think we broke up?
I'm just wondering
if there was something
I could have done.
I'm hoping this will help.
Got it! We'll see
what we can do.
Thanks.
This office is super nice.
[counselor] It's my
teacher's office,
but I get to use
it to do my hours.
Oh. How many hours you need?
3,000.
Wow! That's a lot
of hours! (laughs)
Oh, man. Okay. How
many have you done?
As far as private
one-on-one hours go,
I'd say I've done about...
12?
Wow.
Cool! That's great. You're
really on your way then.
- Yeah!
- You know, I was kind of hoping
that we could do this
all in one session.
I don't know if that's possible.
I don't make a lot of money,
but I talk really fast,
that's what people tell me,
so that could help.
Why don't you give
me your history
in your own words, and
we can go from there?
[click tongues]
Where should I start?
A lot of people like to
start at the beginning.
Oh...
Okay. [laughs]
All right, the
beginning... um...
All right. Okay, let's do it.
So, my mom got into drugs
when I was about four years
old, then she left us.
No one really
knows where she is.
And despite what my father says,
I'm pretty sure it's
not entirely my fault.
I was only locked in
there for 24 hours.
It wasn't like a huge deal.
It wasn't like I was gonna die
in that time period
or anything like that.
So it was totally okay. And
I understood why he did it.
You know, it got, it
got dark and scary.
So I ended up finding
my way back home
just in time for dinner.
And I made us his favorite
- macaroni and cheese!
I was in shock. I had never
seen anything like that...
I was frozen. I'd seen
it in movies, but...
I bet it's really
cathartic to smash things
and to swipe things off a table.
I mean, I bet it is, right?
I was only ten years old,
so what do I know? [laughs]
And then that was when
I decided to run away
with my life savings of
$9 from weed pulling.
I started down that road.
I was gone the whole day.
I'm pretty sure dad didn't
even notice that I was gone.
I got away before anything
really happened. Yeah.
Plus, I was wearing a skirt,
so it was kind of my fault.
And I hit this growth spurt,
so the skirt was really short.
I looked a lot older
than what I actually am.
Um, so now I just wear pants.
So I guess that brings us here,
or at least to the
beginning of my adult life.
[cries]
I'm sorry...
[counselor sniffles]
Oh, my God.
I'm sorry.
Are you okay?
You know, it's gonna be okay.
It's gonna be okay. Okay.
- [light music]
- [Lily] I'm excited.
[Robert] Yeah, me too, me too.
Just remember the plan, okay?
Which one is she again?
She's the one I showed
you on Facebook.
- I showed you. You remember.
- Right. Yeah. No, of course.
- All right.
- You forget something?
No! Uh...
All right... hey, so
you remember. You, uh...
- You got to make me look good.
- Yeah!
No, I mean, like,
uh... like, real good.
Like, uh, better
than I actually am.
Of course! I remember how.
Okay, okay...
Oh, also, I don't
go by 'Bob' anymore.
But, Dad, you've
always gone by 'Bob'.
No, the ladies...
they prefer 'Robert'.
[Lily] Oh, okay. But you
might just try being yourself.
Oh! Yeah! Like
that's ever worked.
- Hey, come on in! There you go.
- [man] Thank you.
- See that makes me look polite.
- Right!
[Robert chuckles] Showtime!
Okay. All right, now laugh
like I said something funny.
[both laugh]
[Mexican music
playing in background]
I'll have the Chicken
Mole Enchiladas
with the cheese on
the side, please.
[waiter] Of course.
Uh... So, are the enchiladas
included in the Taco
Tuesday special?
- [waiter] Uh, no.
- [Robert] No? Sure? Yeah.
[chuckles] I'm sorry,
penny saved, right?
[Robert] Help a brother out...
You know, they used to
call Dad 'Coupon Bob.'
[Helene chuckles]
He is so thrifty. Oh, my gosh.
Who doesn't love a man who
knows a good deal, right?
- Yes.
- Oh.
By the way, that is
awesome about your son.
Congratulations!
- My son?
- Yes.
I mean, you must
be so proud of him
being a vet and all.
A vet?
Yes, like a... like a doctor,
but for animals.
[chuckles] Oh, gosh. Um...
I'm sorry, did he go
to war? Like, what...
what kind of vet is he?
I don't have a son.
[Helene chuckles]
- [Helene] Robert!
- Huh?
Did you think I had a son?
Well, of course you don't.
You're too young. [chuckles]
Dad, I...
I never said that, sweetheart.
She don't have a
kid. [chuckles]
Oh!
Oh, oh, oh, of course!
No, you're into hot yoga.
I've always wanted to try that.
Yeah, you know what? Uh...
I don't know what's in
your drink. [laughs]
- Is there something wrong?
- Wh-what is happening?
What is she talking about?
Well, if I can be honest,
and she doesn't mind,
she went on her medication.
A different one this time.
And so we're working
it out as a family,
but it's cloudy up there.
I'm so sorry.
I think that I just got
a little bit mistaken.
I'm a little bit mixed up.
It's okay. It's gettin'
better. But... [laughs]
Bob, are you dating other women?
[both] No!
- No!
- No.
- [Lily] Uh-uh...
- Uh...
[sighs]
I need to get to an appointment
with my son.
Helen! Ugh, Helene!
[car tires squeal]
God! Look what you did!
I didn't mean to.
God! Do you have any
idea how many meals
I had to sit through
just to get here?
Now I've got to start all
over with someone new.
Good job!
Well, I'm sorry. I was confused.
I told you, she's the
blonde on Facebook.
They are all blonde.
I told you, she's a 60 year
old blonde on Facebook.
They're all 60 year old blondes.
I just was trying to help.
That's what you call helping?
Okay.
You know what?
You're done!
What? 'Done?' No!
I'm tired of you
ruining my life.
All right? We're over.
You go ruin your own life.
- [car door slams]
- 'Over?' Wait, Dad...
Please, Dad, open up.
Please, let's just talk.
What do you mean 'over?'
Come on, open it. Please...
No! I don't wanna talk to you!
I don't wanna talk to
you! Don't touch my car!
- Can we just talk, please?
- I don't want to talk to you!
- [engine starts]
- I don't want to talk to you!
- [Robert] Goodbye forever!
- Dad, no!
Dad!
[]
[phone ringing]
[Robert] Hello?
Hey, Dad, it's me.
Gotcha! [laughs]
Leave a message,
I'll get back to you.
- You have a great day.
- [voicemail beeps]
Hi, Dad. Oh my gosh, I always
loved that voicemail of yours.
So funny. Um, have you
been getting my messages?
I-I think there's been some
sort of miscommunication.
I'm almost done
working with Daphne.
Could you just text me?
I have a break later,
and, you know, we can...
talk, maybe?
All right, bye.
[Robert voicemail]
Gotcha! [laughs]
Leave a message.
I'll get back to you.
You have a great day.
- [voicemail beeps]
- Hi!
[woman] The mailbox is full
and cannot accept any messages.
Goodbye.

[doorbell rings]
[doorbell rings]
Dad!? It's me!
- [Robert] Go away!
- Dad?!
Dad! Please. Let's come out...
Let's just talk, okay?
I just came here
to say I'm sorry,
and I really want
you to forgive me.
Please!
[Robert] Get off my porch!
[women] Look at Robert's!
Hi. It's okay. This is my dad.
I'm his daughter.
[woman grunts]
[Lily] Thank you. Dad!
[woman] Kaylie! There
she is. Kaylie! Kaylie!
I admit responsibility.
[Robert] I told you,
I'm done talking to you.
[banging noises]
You are trespassing!
And I feel threatened!
[Lily] Threatened? Dad!
No, no... n-n-n-n-no.
This is elder abuse!
Okay, Dad. I'm here to
make amends. Please.
I'll get you another date.
She'll be even better!
She'll be an oil painting!
I had an oil painting!
Dad, please.
Please, let's talk.
There's people here.
- [Robert] Good!
- Please.
Ma'am!
But... uh...
Dad!
[woman] Ma'am.
We take the safety and
privacy of our tenants
very seriously
here at Shady Oaks,
Miss Trevanio.
It's 'Trevino.'
Returning again without
permission from a tenant
will result in criminal
trespassing charges.
Understood?
[]
[Lily] Excuse me.
[man] What's she doing
at his house anyway?
[Lily] Found this great
childhood picture.
Happy Father's Day, everybody.

[door opening]
Howdy!
What are you doing
here on a Saturday?
I'm always here on the weekends.
Yeah, I got your email.
I just didn't know what the
heck you was talking about.
Hey, have you seen any packages
personally addressed to me?
I... It's just...
It's a personal
thing for my wife.
If you know what
I mean. [laughs]
Right... Right...
Uh... Hey...
Hey, can I show you something?
I've been studying the
Alpha Trail's property
I really think you
should reconsider
and follow up and tell them that
your approval is pending
the inspection, okay,
of the foundation, of course.
Are you trying to soil my plans?
Oh...
No. No, of course not.
Look, I'm just trying
to prevent a prob...
Get it? 'Soil'... Land...
- Come on, man, that's funny!
- [laughs]
Yeah, I get it.
It's very... It's very funny.
- [laughs]
- Yeah. Yeah.
Anyway, uh, I saw your plans.
Didn't seem to be any issues.
We're good to go.
Come on...
Come on, Harlan.
Harlan, you told me.
You told me not to include
it in there, remember?
Look, if you ask me personally,
I think we should hold off
and wait for the land
test, because those results
may make the land uninsurable
or, even worse, unsafe.
- [box claps shut]
- Eureka!
Say hi to Jackie for me.
Oh... Uh...
Jeanie... Jeanie.
Right. My bad.
No... No worries.
Is she still cutting up
pictures of the two of you
and gluing it on
pieces of paper?
Scrapbooking. Yeah.
Yeah, she still is.
I got to go, man. My
youngest got a game.
I'm assistant coachin'.
I'm taking my oldest on
a college tour next week,
which is like... woof!
- Oh, congrats. Congrats.
- Thanks.
The work never ends. Never.
Hey, that's, that's...
- That's what I hear.
- See you later, pal.
[door slams]
[hole punch clicks]
[Bob] Well, that was
damn good! [laughs]
Thank you, honey.
You're welcome.
Sandra said her husband
and some of the guys
from her church went
out for a drink tonight.
Oh, yeah, they go every Monday
and they watch the game.
- [water running]
- Why don't you go?
Could be good for
you to get out a bit.
You know, I don't drink.
And, you know, sports
is not my thing.
I know, but you might
want to try saying 'yes'
when someone asks you to go out?
- [water shuts off]
- You know?
I just think it'd
be good for you
to get out a bit and
socialize, make some friends.
[hole punch]
How about if you and I
watch a movie tonight?
I... I can't.
I'm prepping for the
convention this weekend.
Oh, yeah, yeah, I
forgot. I forgot.
I got to head back
to the office anyhow.
I need to buy more
supplies tomorrow.
Really? More supplies?
Didn't you... didn't you
just go the other day?
I know, but Precious
Pages just put out a line
of vintage antique paper
I think we should get.
It's a little pricey,
but it's worth it.
You don't think you have enough
paper here already, though?
Well, not vintage,
translucent vellum.
Honey, it's just that...
I didn't get that raise yet,
and it's not that I'm worried,
but it's not, you know...
It's okay. [chuckles]
It's alright.
I just had an idea for something
I wanted to do for him.
I'll figure something else out.
[music begins]
Ah, what the hell! [chuckles]
You know, go. Go for it!
Get whatever you want, babe.
Oh, my God. Yes.
See? See? See?
Anything for that smile!

[Lily] Hi!
Are we related?
My name is Lily Trevino.
I'm only about an hour
away in northern Kentucky,
but I have relatives
in Wichita, too.
I guess there are probably
a lot of Trevinos all over.
[]
[Bob] Hi, Lily. I don't know.
My parents were from
Mexico. I'm an only child.
And my mother and I moved here
when I was three and a half.
We moved around
a lot after that.
But it could be possible.
[Lily] My dad's family
has roots in Spain.
My mom's were
European, too. I think.
She ran off when I was little,
and no one seems to
know where she went.
She got into drugs and, well...
[]
[Bob] My mother passed away
15 and a half years ago.
I still miss her every day.
Her name was Sofia.

Just checking in on you,

[Lily] I'm okay.
Just hanging out with
the woman I work for.
She's cool.
[Bob] Oh, wow!
I am working in our trailer.
We're bidding for several jobs.
So, long days.
What do you do for her?
[Lily] I'm a live-in aide.
But I also like to write.
I'm trying to write poetry.
[Bob] Oh, wow. That's nice.
I don't have a creative
bone in my body.
But if you ever need a home
built safely and on time,
I'm your guy.
[laughs] He's funny.
Oh, yeah... it's...
my dad.
He's so funny.

Yeah.
[clicks tongue] You
only live once...
[Facebook tone]
[Bob] I don't go out much,
but let me see what I can do.
[laughs]
Oh, no... [laughs]
What's so funny over there?
Jeanie, I think I may
have made a friend.
- Really?
- Uh-huh.
Well, that's wonderful.
Who?
Some young woman friended
me on the internet.
I don't even know
how she found me.
Honey...
I think you're
getting 'catfished'.
No...
Wait... What's 'catfish'?
It's when a fake person
on the internet pretends
to be your friend
so they can get
something from you.
Oh, no, no, no.
I don't think
that's what this is.
I mean, she's a Trevino.
Her name's Lily Trevino.
Trevino? Are you related?
I don't think so.
No. I mean, I think
she was looking
for some relatives or
something, and then...
Here. Look.
- [paper rustles]
- Careful, the paper...
[Bob] Sorry. Sorry. See, look.
Mm-mm...
What? What?
What?
- [Jeanie sighs]
- You don't think she's real?
She... Come on. Come on.
She wants to meet for
coffee and everything.
Are you serious?
[doubting laugh]
Uh, I mean...
I don't know.
I mean, you told me to go out
and make some friends, so I...
I meant someone your age!
Not some strange woman
from the internet!
[Jeanie grunts]
Oh...
Jeanie... No, no.
No, no, no. It's
not like that.
I mean, it's just
some... some kid
who doesn't have
anyone, you know?
I remember what that was like.
She's just a kid who
never caught a break.
Look, look. She's
screaming into the void.
No one even likes her posts or
replies back. [clicks tongue]
See that? See?
I don't know. Maybe
I... I don't know.
I thought maybe I could have
something to offer. [chuckles]
Okay.
Just don't give her any money.
Jeanie...
Come on.
[music plays over earphones]
[Lily] Here's a flashback
to my basketball days.
[Facebook tone]
[laughs]
My new dad is so kind.
- [man] Hm.
- Hm. [laughs]
[laughs]
[music from earphones plays]
[Daphne] Hello!?
Lily!?
Help! I'm in the bathroom!
Hello?! Help!
Oh! Oh! Daphne!
[Daphne] Lily! Lily!
Daphne! I'm coming! I'm coming!
I'm so... Okay. What? Oh! Oh!
I was trying to use
the bathroom on my own
and the damn toilet
wouldn't flush.
- I got you. I'm sorry!
- Oh my gosh!
And now there's water
overflowing everywhere!
- Almost there. Almost there.
- Okay.
[Lily] Okay. Oh, you good?
- [Daphne] Yes.
- Okay.
- [toilet gurgles]
- [Daphne] What's happening now?
[Lily] No, no, no, no, no!
Oh my God! That
toilet is possessed!
It's a mess! Lily,
I don't like this!
What are we going to do?
My dad's out of town!
[toilet gurgles]
It's okay, you
know. I'll just...
I'll call my dad.
Okay. All right, then I'm out.
[whimpers]
[door knocks]
Hi.
Hi!
- Lily?
- Yeah!
Hey. Is it still, uh...
- Still leaking?
- Yeah.
I-I-I'm going to go
around to the side
and I'm going to turn it off
and I'll meet you back here.
Yeah. Thank you for coming.
I know this is
weird. I'm sorry...
Oh, no. Don't worry about it.
- I love helping people.
- Thank you again.
[Bob] Yeah, be right back.
[Bob] All right, so I turned
the water off outside.
We should be good to go.
- Cool. [chuckles]
- May I?
Yeah, yeah.
Absolutely. Go ahead.
Alright.
Okay, let's see
what we got here.
[Bob mumbles]
[Lily] I hope it's not too bad.
[clunking]
I think I got it. [groans]
[grunts]
Wh-what happened to
'it's good to go?'
I mean, did you break it?
Um...
No, no, I... I didn't break it.
I mean...
- [laughs]
- What?
You should see your
face right now. Hold on.
My face? Why?
- Look.
- Oh, no, no, no. Come on. No.
- [camera clicks]
- [laughs]
Ahh... No, no. Delete that.
That's... that's horrible.
Please delete that.
Alright.
So...
[wrench clanks]
All right! All I had
to do was trim it...
[toilet flush]
And now you're good to go.
[sigh of relief]
Thank you.
This is embarrassing. I'm sorry.
Oh, no, no. Don't
even think about it.
I know but, I mean, I
don't know how I clogged it
so much that all this
water came out so...
Lily.
Yeah.
When you get older,
you're going to learn
that sometimes in life
...shit happens.
[Bob laughing]
What?
It's not that funny.
- Well, you should see your face.
- No.
- [camera clicks]
- [laughs]
- Thank you.
- All right, alright.
Next time, just make sure
you have the plunger
next to the toilet,
and this won't
happen to you. Okay?
So, where's your plunger?
Uh, no. The plunger.
This is all I have.
That's... That's
the toilet brush.
Oh...
[Bob] So, what are the
basic necessities of life
do you not have?
Umm... college education,
health insurance, car...
[laughs]
So, in other words, you
don't have any tools, huh?
Not really, no.
So, if a problem
arises, what do you use?
I mean, how do you fix it?
- [mumbles]
- [laughs]
[speaks Spanish], girl.
How are you even alive?
All right, kid, come on.
Are you sure you don't have
the other type of flashlight?
You know, the kind of you
wind up... zzzzzzzzz...
like that in case
the power goes out
and she has to, you know,
phone dies and whatnot?
I will make sure it's
on the next shipment.
- Yeah?
- Yup.
All right.
Sorry. Have to get
it next time, then.
- That's okay.
- Yeah? No worries.
No biggie.
- Hey, can you grab the rest?
- Mhmm.
I'll go get a cart.
[chuckles] Hi.
Uh... You know, I think
I'm gonna have to use
a few cards, if that's okay.
Oh! It's been taken care of.
Your dad got it.
[music begins]
Oh God. I can't
remember the last time
I drank a cup of
coffee this late.
Shoot... I might be up
all night. This is crazy.
Well, You don't have to drink it
if you don't want
to just cause I am.
- Yeah, but... 'YOLO!, ' right?
- [laughs]
[phone rings]
I'm sorry.
Oh shoot, I have to
take this. I'm sorry.
No, no, no, no, no worries.
I mean, is it okay
if I sit here?
- Yeah.
- All right.
Hi, Daphne!
Hey, did y'all fix that
demon toilet from hell?
- Yup! All good to go.
- Good. Where're you?
Oh... we're at D. Nalley's.
[whispers] Are you still
with your ex-boyfriend?
Yeah. I had to
come to his place
for some make-out
and takeout. Phew.
Don't worry about it. I
won't be out too late.
If my memory serves me correctly
he's cute to look at, but...
Okay, I gotta go!
Have fun with your dad!
Eh... [awkwardly chuckles]
Uhm...
Wow. Your dad?
Your dad?
I mean, I don't
know. I'm confused.
Is something...
What's going on here?
It's just Daphne... y' know...
I mean, did I know your mother?
- No. No.
- No.
Well, actually, I
really don't know.
- But... maybe?
- I...
I didn't... [coughs]
I mean, can we just
go outside and talk?
I just need a little fresh air.
[continues coughing]
[exhaling]
Okay, listen, kid...
I've always, always
used protection, okay?
And I haven't touched another
woman since I met Jeanie.
How old are you?
- Uhm... I'm 25.
- 25...
Was your mother
the estate lady I messed
around with when my moth...
No. No, she wasn't.
It was the adjuster who came
to my house to assess...
No, Bob. No. It's
nothing like that.
No?
I...
I may have let Daphne believe
that you were my dad.
Why did you let her
think I was your dad?
I'm not your dad.
You understand? I need
you to understand that.
That I'm not your
dad. I'm nobody's dad.
You... you don't have
to be so mean about it.
I'm...
I'm not being mean. I'm
just a little upset.
I just need you to understand
that I'm not your father.
I know but...
You talk to me!
And... and you listen,
and you give me advice.
And you liked all my posts!
I'm sorry if there was
a misunderstanding,
but that was not my intent.
Come on! Come on, where you
going? Where are you going?
Where are you going?
Come on... Lily!
- Lily! Wait! Wait!
- [car horn blares]
- [Lily panting]
- Hey!
- Watch where you're goin'!
- [man] My bad. Sorry.
Lily! Lily! Stop.
Stop. Please stop.
I know I fucked up! Okay, Bob?
No, I never said that!
I befriended a stranger
on the internet
so I could feel
like I have like...
like a family like everyone
else! Or something...
I don't even know,
honestly. And just...
You know what? I
know how this goes.
Okay, so we could just,
please, can we just not do it?
Please! Just rip
the Band-Aid off.
Just go home. I'm so
sorry. I'm so sorry!
Okay? It's fine. I'm...
We don't have to see
each other again.
And it's okay... It's fine.
Okay, okay, okay.
Could you stop talking
for one second, please?
Can you please listen
to me for a second?
Look, just because I'm not
your father doesn't mean that
we can't be friends, okay?
All right?
And I know, I know we just met
a couple hours ago.
But I care. I really do.
And I don't know why, but I do.
And when you care
about somebody,
you don't just stop talking to
them because you have a problem.
No, no. You, you, you work it
out and you talk it through.
Okay, so...
let's talk.
Yeah? Come on...
[inaudible]
So you never wanted to be a dad?
Oh, no, no, no. It's
not... It's not that.
Well, Jeanie and I...
we... we lost a child.
Oh.
His name was David.
I'm sorry.
No, no, don't be. Don't be.
We knew when he was born
that we weren't going
to have long with him.
It's just... 'cause
kids with his condition
95% of them don't
live past 18 months.
But our David...
Our David lived 21
months and two days.
I was so proud of him.
So you see it's not that
I didn't want to be a dad.
I mean, I was...
Am!
I mean, I don't know
how it works, but...
And Jeanie...
Man, she started
preserving everything.
Every outfit he ever wore,
jars of food he ate from...
because... because he loved...
he loved canned peaches.
Don't know why that boy was
obsessed with canned peaches.
But we had to buy them
in bulk. It was so crazy.
And, uh, she kept every single
one of his hospital bracelets.
But for me, it was...
it was too painful
to look at all that stuff.
Just wasn't for me.
And, you know...
it's never been the same since.
Couldn't you guys
still have a kid?
At our age?
Oh, God, no. No.
I mean, we got a bit
of a late start anyhow.
And, you know, I want,
I want to protect
our privacy here, but...
I mean, grief can take
a toll on a marriage,
boy, let me tell you.
You know, then she found
scrapbooking and she was
able to handle her feelings,
and we managed.
And boom! You know.
It works for her. I
work all the time.
And here we are. [chuckles]
That's it.
Hey... umm...
This was nice. I'm
glad we did it.
Same.
We should do it again sometime.
Oh! I have next Tuesday off.
- Oh yeah?
- Yeah, I think so.
D'ya like sports?
Check, please.
[Lily] You ready?
[Bob] Ugh... Look...
I, um... I think...
I think I'm just going to
sit it out and watch you.
That's not how you
play the game, Bob.
I suck at basketball, okay?
That's fine. We'll just
play a little game.
- No, it's not fine. Not okay.
- It absolutely is fine.
Seriously, just watch me.
- All right?
- All right.
- [ball bounces]
- Simple. You can do it.
- Seriously?
- Uh-hmm.
- Just do that?
- Yeah.
You got a lot of faith in me
- that I don't have in myself.
- Yeah.
[laughs] Bob! What is that?
[Lily laughs]
I just can't. I
don't- I can't play.
Oh! Okay.
[Lily] You're leaving?
Oh, my God! Okay...
I'm kidding!
Did you think I'd really leave?
[both laughing]
Funny!
- All right.
- Oh, hey, hey.
Why did Cinderella always
lose at basketball?
Cause she ran away
from the ball.
She ran away... She
ran away from the...
You get it? She ran?
- Yeah, no. I get it.
- And it works for any sport.
Baseball... Uhm...
Obviously not hockey because
that's a puck, but...
Ran from the ball.
Ran from the ball.
Come on, just try!
[chuckles] Bob... come on...
- [Bob] What? That's incredible.
- This isn't funny.
Okay, I get your point.
You brought me here
to humiliate me.
Listen, I didn't know
you were that bad.
That bad!
[Bob] So, wait...
The competition's going
to be in the hotel?
Yeah, they've redesigned it
to make it look
like Machu Picchu.
I've always wanted
to go to Peru.
And I heard they have these
little boats that take you
from casino to casino,
just like Italy.
Hey, maybe I can come with you.
We can go... go dancing.
Huh?
You can't.
You won't be able
to see the meteors
with all the lights of Vegas.
Wow. You remembered.
Of course I remembered.
You should go out to the
property to watch them.
That's where you
can really see them.
Why don't you come with me?
- Come on, let's go camping.
- [laughs softly]
[bag zips]
[Bob] Hi, umm... It's Bob.
Is this thing even recording?
Okay. You said it was going to
be easier to do voice memos,
but it doesn't really feel easy.
Hey, anyway, I used to
go camping with my dad
so I'm glad you can tag along.
I already packed my extra tent
and everything we might need.
Bye? Oh, God... I don't know...
[car pulling up]
[car horn honks]
Hi!
[talk radio playing]
- Hey!
- Hello.
Thanks for letting me
tag along and everything.
Yeah.
Thanks for joining me.
Of course.
Hey, can you put a seatbelt on?
- Oh, yeah - Thank
you. Thank you.
I really wanted Jeanie
to come with us,
but, you know, she's gotta
defend her annual championship.
- Ooh.
- Yeah.
I can't wait for the
two of you to meet.
Can't wait to meet her.
You know, I've never
been camping before.
What!?
No!
No!
[birds chirping]
[Lily] I saw the sign.
'La Familia Trevino'
Trevino means 'three vines.'
Yup.
I'd like to learn Spanish,
but my dad doesn't speak it.
Hey, I'll teach it
to you, if you want.
Here and there.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
Gracias!
- [speaking Spanish]
- [chuckles]
[Bob] It's so weird.
They usually show
up right about now.
I don't know why
they're so late.
[Lily] Does this
happen every year?
[Bob] Oh, yeah.
The Perseids happen every
late July and August.
And they're named after
the Perseus Constellation.
Huh...
How do you know so
much about this stuff?
Well, when my father
left us... [chuckles]
...reading made me
feel less alone.
So I read everything I
could get my hands on.
And I also collected rocks,
which drove my mom crazy
because she'd always
find them in my pockets
when she was doing laundry.
I don't know. I've
always wanted to be
a geologist or an
astronomer, I guess.
- Really?
- Mm-hmm.
Why didn't you?
I don't know. I guess
life got in the away.
See, these... these
showers happen
only when the earth intersects
with the path of a comet.
And I know it's just debris
shooting through the sky.
But it's one of the few things
that still remains magical.
It's also believed
that shooting stars are
the tears of Saint Lawrence,
listening to the wishes
of us mortals down here.
Is that why you come out here?
To make a wish?
Every summer for
the past 10 years.
[fire crackling]
Is it hard for
you to talk about?
Yeah, well, Jeanie and I...
we don't talk about it.
We just... just never have.
Why not?
Wouldn't it help? I mean...
You know, we were going to
build our home right here.
Right there.
When Jeanie got pregnant,
I bought this property
and I've been paying
on it ever since,
but I haven't done a damn thing.
But the plan is to build
on it before we retire,
because you got to build
up those happy hormones.
Y'know what I mean? Because
nature will do it for you...
animals...
You've ever... You
ever had a pet?
I don't trust
myself with animals.
I'm afraid I might
accidentally hurt them.
Aw, no, no. Now, why
would you think that?
I had a dog once.
When I was eight.
He was a little Maltese mix.
- Aw, cute!
- He didn't have the long hair.
Like the show dogs or
anything like that.
- He was definitely a mutt.
- Mutts are better.
His name was Charlie.
I found him when the
owners next door moved out.
They locked him in a garage
without food or water.
Oh, no! Oh, my God,
that's so horrible.
He was skittish at first.
Oh, my gosh! I loved
him so much. [chuckles]
I didn't have any friends
because we moved around so much.
So I took Charlie
everywhere with me.
I told him about my whole life.
And, uh...
He never yelled at me.
He's just happy to be with me.
And I was so happy to have him.
That's so sweet.
Yeah, well...
One day, I was in a good mood,
so I was listening to music
and dancing, and I really
wanted to dance with Charlie.
So I, umm... I picked him
up by his front legs...
And I didn't know.
He yelped.
My dad saw the
whole thing. So...
He yanked him from my
arms and said, uh...
"Clearly, you don't know how to
take care of an animal,
so you can't have him."
Then he took Charlie
to the pound.
- I abused an abused dog.
- Oh, no, no.
You didn't abuse the
puppy. No, you didn't.
I mean, you were just a
kid. You didn't know better.
Come on. Come on. Your father
could have explained it to you.
I would've done it the right
way if I had just known.
Hey, of course you would've.
Of course you would've.
Mira, Lily...
[speaking Spanish]
I don't know what that
means. I'm sorry. [laughs]
It means we're all, we're
all a bit broken, you know...
But, you know what...
You're gonna be fine.
I promise.
[]
Oh, shoot! There it is!
Look! Look! Look!
See right there?
Oh, wow! Oh, my gosh!
That's beautiful.
Oh, my God...
Oh! Over there! Look it!
[Lily laughs]
[Bob laughs] Oh, my
God! It's beautiful!
See right there? Right there,
right there, right there.
[Lily] Where? Where, where,
where? Oh! There it goes!
[Bob] Oh, man!
[music rises]
[Bob] Hey.
Yeah, just toss everything
in there. It'll be fine.
Alright. Don't want
it bangin' around.
- [text alert]
- [lid slams]
Oh, hey!
Hey, Jeanie just won
the championship again!
Dang it! I knew that
woman would get it.
Whoooooo!
- Pretty badass.
- Yeah!
It's cool they have
scrapbooking competitions!
Oh, hey! Shoot! I forgot.
I got a... I gotta
make a quick stop
on the way back by your place.
- Is that alright with you?
- Sure! For what?
Oh... It's a surprise.
A surprise?
[birds chirping]
[woman's voice] Coming!
Oh, hey, hey, hey. I'm sorry.
I know you're closing,
but we were running late.
We won't be long. Can we
take a quick look at them?
Thank you! Thank you!
[dogs bark]
[]
[door rattles open]
[Bob] Oh. Oh-ho-ho.
- Oh, what a good boy!
- [dog whimpers]
Look at that! Look at him!
How cute!
Come on, mister. Come on...
[dog whimpering]
He's so cute! [chuckles]
It's okay. Now you go.
No...
Come on. You can dance
with him. Look, look, look.
[laughs]
You just gotta hold him
completely, that's all.
- No.
- You wanna try?
No. I'm good, thank you.
You can do it.
Ahhh, there ya go, there
ya go, there ya go.
you! He loves you!
[cries]
[music swells]
[Lily sobs] Hi.
[Bob] Come on.
[Lily sobs]
[inaudible]
[Lily] Thank you so much!
Oh, my God. Hey. Hey, buddy.
- Is he licking you?
- Oh, my goodness! Hi!
Go for it. Come on.
Where did you get that from?
[Lily laughing on video]
- [Bob] Oh, buddy...
- [Lily] Oh, my goodness!
[Lily and Bob laugh]
[Lily on voicemail] Hey, Bob.
Hope you got home okay.
Maybe I will get one
of my own one day.
...when I'm ready.
No one's ever done anything
like that for me before.
Thank you.
[quietly crying]
Congratulations.
[sighs]
Wanna show me the
book you made for him?
[]
- Oh, my God. We were so young.
- [laughs]
- Can you believe that's us?
- Mm-hmm.
- That was our first sonogram.
- Yeah.
And this page is all
his favorite color.
Do you remember how
his eyes would light up
when he saw green?
[Bob] Yeah.
Yeah, he loved that
little stuffed fro-
- Frog.
- And the sound it would make.
Ribbit, ribbit, ribbit...
[laughs]
I looked it up and he probably
would have been studying
rocks and soil and
minerals and maybe even
atoms and energy and
different types of matter.
I bet he would have gotten
a love of science from you.
[]
[Jeanie] I always thought
he would like baseball.
Do you remember
how he used to grip
that little rubber baseball?
- Oh, my God.
- So tight.
I could never get
it out of his hand.
He's was such a born
athlete, that kid.
[sighs]
That he wouldn't
have gotten from you.
No, I guess not. [chuckles]
[]
[Daphne] Lily!
- [Lily chuckles to herself]
- Lily!
- What's going on with you?
- Nothing.
Seriously, you've
been half here.
It's been going on for a while.
Sorry. It's just,
um... family stuff.
Well, you... you
wanna talk about it?
It's kind of embarrassing.
Yeah. I'm sorry. I'll
pay more attention.
I know you don't see
me as a real friend.
What!?
You leave as soon as
your hours are done.
You just go hide in your room.
Daphne!
I used to hang with
my girls, but...
once everything
progressed, well...
It's just... I don't
know. I... [sighs]
It's like
looking at a life that I
don't get to have anymore.
And I find myself trying
to hide all this stuff.
It's really exhausting.
I'm just saying...
it means something to
me when we hang out.
I just wish you were more
present and open with me.
I wouldn't judge
you or anything.
Okay, well... [clears throat]
You know that man
that fixed our toilet?
- You mean your dad?
- Yeah...
He's not really my dad.
Who is he?
Uhh... [chuckles]
He's a guy from the internet.
That's really weird.
You said you wouldn't judge!
He's, like, 80 years old!
Daphne! He's not 80.
He's like, what? 50?
- Same thing!
- 60, maybe.
What are you doing meeting
50-year-olds on the internet?
It's a little hard to explain,
but my dad stopped
talking to me,
so I went searching for him,
and then I accidentally found
another Bob Trevino,
and he's so nice.
We just started talking.
We're just friends!
You chat with guys online.
Yeah! Our age!
You told me to open
up, so I opened up.
Your dad must've been
a real piece of work
if you needed a fake dad.
[chuckles]
You know what? Let's
go get dressed.
I got the perfect place for you.
And you totally need it.
Okay...
[loud smash and music]
[man] Oh, I love you,
I love you, I love you!
[bell rings]
[screaming]
[screaming]
[man] Okay! Okay! Okay!
- [woman] Oh!
- [man] Oh, God.
[giggles with excitement]
[man] Congrats. Oh.
Phew. Nice work.
[exhales] Breathe
it out. Breathe...
Thank you.
[Daphne] That's awesome.
[man] All right, you're next.
You got 5 minutes. Smash away.
And welcome to The Rage Room.
- Thank you.
- Now get in there.
All right! Come
on, girl. Let's go!
[giddy giggle]
- [heavy rock music plays]
- All right. Come on!
[Daphne] Okay.
Hit something!
Let's go!
Get angry!
[Daphne sighs]
- I can't.
- What!?
Of course you can!
No...
No! No! No!
Pick that back up
and let it out!
Like... like a primal
scream. Like this...
[screams]
[heavy rock music plays]
Girl...
[text ding]
[Bob] Nos vemos pronto!
- [text dings]
- That means "See you soon."
Is it weird that I'm
angry you can't get angry?
Aww, Daphne. I'm sorry.
Listen, let's just stay here
and watch people
smash more shit.
I can't. I made plans
with Bob to play pinball.
Bob! Eww! Okay. Bye.
- [phone rings]
- I mean, he's calling me.
- Whatever!
- I'll see you in a second.
Hi, Bob.
[Robert] Wait, what
happened to Dad?
[sighs]
Dad...
Well, don't sound so surprised.
Why wouldn't I call
my own daughter?
I haven't heard back
from you in a while.
Well, I needed some time.
I did some thinking,
and I want to talk.
That's great.
I'd love to talk.
Okay, well, I'll come your
way and make it easier on you
since you don't
have a car and all.
Okay, um...
I'm free from work next Tuesday.
I could be at D.
Nally's in an hour.
I can't right now. I'm
going to go meet someone.
I mean, I wouldn't call you
if it weren't important.
- No, I understand, but...
- Hey, hey, hey...
We're all each other's got.
Well, what could be more
important than family?
I'm trying to make
up here, Lily.
Don't blow me off.
Dad! We didn't make plans.
Well, we're making
them now, aren't we?
[music rises]
Okay. Fine.
I'll meet you at D. Nalley's.
Okay, I'll see you soon then.
[]
[Bob] I've been waiting here.
Okay. Well, I can't
get a hold of him.
He doesn't pick up.
I text. Nothing.
Okay, but...
Yeah, okay. All right.
I'm sure. I'm sure.
- Sheesh!
- [car tires roll over gravel]
[car door opens]
Here for the walk-through.
You're an hour and a half late.
I can't. I can't.
I got to go, man.
[equipment slams]
I'm meeting somebody.
Harlan said you're
always available.
Well, Harlan's not
always right, now, is he?
[chuckles]
Can't. I got... I gotta go.
Sorry.
[Lily] I have to
reschedule. I'm sorry.
Aww, man.
[engine starts]
[jukebox playing]
[restaurant door chimes]
[door closes]
[Robert] Well, hey
there, hey there!
Oh, my God!
This place is so far away!
Next time let's, uh...
let's pick a place
a little closer to me, alright?
I mean, I'm in my 60s now.
Dad, you just turned 60.
Well, you'll see. You'll see.
[both laugh]
It's good to see you.
Yeah, it's good to see you,
too. Hey, you look good!
Thank you. I feel good.
Good.
Do you want anything?
Oh, no, no...
These diners, you
know, they overcharge.
Hmm.
So, how you been?
You know, I've been doing okay.
Yeah, uh...
I've been doing some thinkin'...
And, uh... uh... I've got...
I've got some stuff that I
wanted to share with you.
All right? And, uh...
uh... we can take turns.
Uh... I'll go first and talk
and you can listen and, uh,
you know, like they do on TV.
And then once I'm done
talking, you can talk.
Uh... How's that sound?
That sounds very
mature and reasonable.
Okay. Here you go...
[Lily] Wow. You've been
doing a lot of thinking.
I have.
Hmm.
[Lily] Dad... um...
Is this an, umm... is
this an itemized list
of all the expenses
of being my father?
It's a start.
[chuckles]
This.
That's what it cost
me to raise you.
[papers rustling]
- Dad! There's baby food on here.
- Yeah!
You seriously think
that I owe you for this?
I'm not saying that you owe me.
I wanted you to know
what you've cost me.
What... what about you?
To be fair, you've
cost me a lot, too.
Wow, okay...
Well, well...
you know, I may not have
been the best father.
But I'm sure a better
father than what I got.
Dad. Come on... Dad...
No, I...
Dad, please. Can
you just look at me?
- Hey.
- Dad.
God, Lily...
I mean, one day you're not going
to have me to pick on anymore.
Dad, I'm not picking on you.
A relationship is
a two-way street.
Okay?
But is it my turn to talk now?
Well, sure. That
doesn't seem to...
Yeah, go ah...,
mm-hmm, go ahead.
Okay... Okay.
Thank you.
I made a new friend.
His name is Bob, too.
Okay. A boyfriend?
No, no.
Bob is your age. Just a friend.
What's he do?
Um, he's a... a manager.
He works with architects
and contractors.
Ooh.
That must be nice.
Yeah.
- I need to borrow some money.
- [Lily laughs]
Dad, I don't have any
money. You know that.
Well, what about your friend?
I mean,
is he, uh, helping
you financially?
Bob?
No!
But he would?
I... guess maybe if
I really needed...
I'm sorry.
I'm not understanding the
point of this question.
Okay... I'm just saying, like,
if... if... if you needed him...
I mean, let's just say
that your, your dad,
he needed something?
[laughs]
Y'know, I can't believe
that I actually thought
that you wanted to see me.
God, I'm so stupid.
I'm not going to ask
Bob for money, Dad!
I cannot do that.
You look just like your mom.
And you act like her, too.
Just sort of a
constant reminder.
I don't know how you
think that makes me feel.
You know, I could have
dropped her on the spot
the day she relapsed, but,
no, stupid me, I stayed.
And when... when she promised
me that she was on the pill,
I believed her.
And then even after we split
and the judge deemed
her incompetent...
Who took you in!? Who!?
I know you did.
Do you know where
you would be without me?
Dead!
You'd be dead without me.
You only care about yourself.
Thankless.
[keys clanking]
[papers rustle]
No. I'm gonna leave this
with you. You carry that.
Thankless!
- Thankless!
- [door opens]
Ohhh.
[door closes]
[]
[Lily] Hi, Bob!
How've you been?
I've been doing
a lot of thinking
and I... I wrote this poem.
You actually inspired it.
I hope you like it.
[]
[whistles]
- [mouse clicks]
- Hey...
[door opens]
[door slams]
- Hey!
- Somebody got hurt, Bob!
- On your watch!
- On my watch?
What are you talking about? Who?
You left the Parker job.
The inspector tried
to do it on his own
and he fell and
he broke his hip.
He's got a P.I.,
man. He's suing us!
- What!?
- What're we gonna do?
Okay, I guess your raise
will have to wait, bud.
God! How could you
let this happen?
No, I'm sorry.
I'm sorry, but this has
nothing to do with me, okay?
You shouldn't have left.
You should have stayed there.
I thought you cared about
safety, but you don't.
Oh, I care about safety, okay?
I'll show you.
I'll show you how much I care.
What the hell are those? We
don't need this right now!
This is every material
safety data sheet
you told me to dismiss
in the last few years.
That you told me
to just throw away.
But you know what?
I kept them in case
anybody needed them, in
case anybody got hurt.
And these are the receipts
for every single inspection
you told me to skip.
But I did on my own,
out of my own pocket
to keep people safe here.
Okay? So don't tell me that
I don't care about safety.
Well...
if you don't like the job,
then maybe you
shouldn't be doing it.
Well, you know what?
You know what? For
once, you're right.
You're right.
I am right!
Wait... Wait a sec...
What are you doing?
What does it look
like I'm doing?
Hey, man... Hey, listen...
Hold up! Hold up! I don't...
I don't... I don't...
I mean, you can't go.
You and me, hombre!
Fuck!
Come on, man.
We're a team!
Come on. Come on.
Let's talk about it.
I need your help.
[Bob] It's too late for that.
Don't leave me like this.
You wouldn't have left my dad.
I'll look at them receipt books.
- What about a raise?
- [phone rings]
- Whatever you want.
- [Jeanie] Hi, honey.
- Jeanie.
- Hi.
- Guess what.
- What?
You're never gonna believe this.
- I've got some good news.
- You do?
- I quit my job!
- Really!?
- Uh-huh. I feel so happy.
- It's about time.
- Oh, yeah.
- Wow.
Let's celebrate!
Honey?
[breathes deeply]
Ohhh...
Bob?
[Lily] Hi, Bob! Are you okay?
[sighs]
[startled panting]
Hi, Bob!
It's Lily.
Sorry for sending you
this message so early.
I haven't heard back
from you in a few days.
You okay?
Did I do something wrong?
[]
Hi, Bob! It's me again.
Sorry, I know I've been
sending like so many messages,
but I'm literally free anytime,
so you can just call me.
I just want to know where
you are and where you've been
and if everything's okay.
All right. Sorry. I
know I'm rambling, bye!
I'm actually on the bus on the
way to your place right now.
I have about two more transfers,
so it might take a
little bit of time,
but could you please answer
me when you get this message?
I'm very worried.
Thank you so much.
[]
[door knocks]
Bob!
It's Lily!
Bob! It's me!
Bob!
[man mutters]
[Lily] Just trying to get in
and make sure you're okay.
Bob! I'm gonna try and come in!
Bob!
- Bob!
- [woman] Police!
Step back from the house.
Put your hands where I
can see them. Hands up.
Come on down. Get
off the recycling.
Let's go!
You mind telling
me what's going on?
[police radio chatter]
You gotta call someone
to come get you.
I'm not just gonna
leave you out here.
There's nobody.
[woman] Come on. Nobody?
Uh-uh.
You don't have any
family? Any friends?
Boyfriend?
Nobody at all?
No.
There's someone. Come on...
[police radio chatter]
Yeah.
- [car door closes]
- You okay?
You doing alright?
It's okay. It's okay.
[engine starts]
[heart monitor beeps]
[text ding]
[multiple texts ding]
[Jeanie gasps]
[big breath]
You're awake!
[Daphne] Girl! Where
the hell are you?
The backup aide is here
for now, and I'm fine.
But I'm worried about you.
Seriously, I need
you to call me back.
I need proof of life.
[pages flipping]
You cut me out?!
It's all going to my
girlfriend when I die.
Whoever she is.
The family album.
Why did you cut me
out of all the photos?
Oh... well, no, not all of them.
Dad, I'm your daughter.
Why would you cut me
out of any of them?
Oh... okay.
That was Caroline.
Remember?
She didn't want to
date a guy with kids.
- Caroline?
- Yeah, yeah.
The one with the red hair.
Dad, I have literally no idea
who you're talking about!
And the highlights.
And the little dog that
I gave her for her 40th.
Fat lot of good that did me.
Did I... Did I just hear you
say you gave her a puppy?
You took Charlie away from me,
and you gave this woman a puppy?
- Who's Charlie?
- My dog, Dad!
That was a long time ago.
Plus, she was a gold digger.
She ran off with some rich guy.
Baby, it doesn't matter.
You cut me out of
our family photos
for a woman that you
dated for like 5 minutes
and barely remember!
Just because she
didn't want kids!?
Let's just settle down, Lily.
Let's just calm down
and breathe. [inhales]
- Breathe, Lily.
- Dad, stop! Stop saying my name!
- Lily...
- I do not need to breathe!
What I need is a dad.
I was just a little kid. What
did I do to deserve this?
All right.
I don't know what's
going on with you
but you need to
show some respect
and apologize to your father.
I'm sorry, okay?
I am so sorry
that I cramped your dating
life when I was four.
I'm sorry that I breathe wrong.
- I'm sorry. Okay?
- Hey! Calm down!
I'm sorry that you're such
a bitter, negative person
and nothing is ever your fault!
I said to cool it! All
right? Settle down!
My friend Bob was a stranger
to me two months ago
and I think that I have
more sweet memories with him
than I've had with
you my whole life!
I'm Bob!
And where was he
when you needed him?
- Oh...
- Yeah.
- [yells]
- [bottle shatters]
You know what? Maybe
it's my turn for once.
Hey, don't you do it!
[plates shattering]
[screams]
[breathing sharply]
Don't you... you
just care about me,
even just, like,
a little bit!?!?
I love you.
But I can't...
I can't keep abandoning
myself for you anymore, okay?
I can't keep putting myself
on the bottom of the list.
I'll never, ever
be enough for you.
I'll never fix this.
And no matter how
much I apologize
or how much I give to you,
you'll never just, like...
love me!
It's okay.
You can go ahead
and give up on me.
Go.
You're just like everybody else.
Dad! I cannot play this
role for you anymore!
Now, if you want to
meet me in the middle,
we can work on this together.
And you know where to find me.
Also, you can clean this
whole mess up yourself, too.
How you think you're
gonna get home?
I'll call an Uber!
[door slams]
- [smashing]
- [screaming]
Whooo-hooo! Whooo-hooo!
Whoooooo!
[Daphne] Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!
[screams]
[laughs]
Whooo-hoo-hoo!
Whooo-hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!
[bell rings]
[both scream]
[both scream]
[both laugh]
Dude!
[laughing]
[Daphne] Okay, look!
I took one of your
Facebook photos,
and I turned your
bad dad into a meme.
Look how mad he is!
Look at him. Just mad.
I'm gonna call it #grumpydad.
Zoom in, zoom in, zoom in.
[Daphne laughs]
Look at him!
Look at him. His arms
crossed on top of a horse.
Like, really!?
[laughs]
Look at this one on
the rollercoaster.
- [Daphne] The rollercoaster!
- [Lily laughs]
Look at him on a rollercoaster!
Listen, I'm about
to make some more.
Cause this is, this is too good.
[hopeful music begins]
It's too good! It's too good!
[video narrator] Perseids
are closer to Earth.
Draw a line across the meteors
and they'll all
meet at the same-

[dog barking]
[door slams]
[whirling]
[circuit clicks]
[Lily] Got my first car!
[]
Hi, Bob. I've been thinking.
Maybe you were right.
Maybe I am going to be okay.
I hope you are too.
[pen scratching]
That's pretty much it.
Good.
You didn't cry this time.
Um, I've done a little work
since our last session.
[laughs]
And so have you.
I guess I have.
[]
Bye!
[Facebook tone]
Oh, no.
Lily!
What's going on?
Oh, I have to go to
Southern Indiana.
Why?
- It's Bob.
- Oh.
What're you guys about to do?
Like hang out or something?
Umm, no.
He passed.
Oh!
I'm sorry.
Um, I called the
home care agency
and they're finding someone
to come in to help you today.
That hot guy you
liked from before.
[bag zips]
[Daphne] Wait! Wait!
I'm coming with you.
Oh, no, no, no. It's okay.
Thank you, but I'll...
I'll be fine.
No. Are you sure?
Actually, will you come with me?
I think I need a friend.
[gasps]
Go get my keys!
[music rises]
- Over there.
- Oh.
Okay.
[people chattering]
[sighs]
Hey...
I got one for you.
What do you call it when
a cardiology student
flunks out?
Heart failure. [laughs]
Thank you.
[sniffs]
Hi, Jeanie. [sniffs]
I'm Lily.
I know.
I'm sorry for your loss.
We got a call from the neighbors
that you were at our place.
Oh. I'm sorry about that.
I was just really worried.
I have Bob's phone.
I listened to his voicemail
and I got your messages and...
...and all of your texts.
I thought about writing
you back, but I...
It was a lot.
I didn't mean to.
We're friends.
He was my friend.
You two come with me.
[birds chirping]
[door shuts]
I made this.
I want you to have it.
What is this?
[Bob] Hi, Lily.
I'm sorry I haven't
gotten back to you.
Um, I've been... I've been sick.
I hope you like the
book Jeanie made.
I think it turned out great.
When Bob was in the hospital,
he opened up a lot,
shared a lot with me about
your conversations.
It's his thoughts and
feelings... dreams...
[crying]
[Jeanie] He saved every photo,
every receipt.
He made it easy for me.
[crying laughter]
You see this...
It's cute!
This last page was
Bob's favorite.
He loved your poem.
"I treasure this
brief time we share,
I hope that you're by now aware,
My door is always open,
Where you can rely on me.
So here's to the
ocean oh so blue.
Here's to friends,
both old and new.
[Bob] My special friends,
the ones like you,
are chosen family."
[crying]
Thank you so much!
It's just awkward
just to watch y'all.
Come in. Come in.
[Frankie Rose's "Pair
of Wings" plays]
All that I want is
A pair of wings to fly
Into the blue
Of the wide open sky
Show me your scars
I'll show you mine
Perched out of the city
On a pair of power lines
On grounds I'll sing
And dance
I just might fall but
I'll take that chance
All that I want is a
pair of wings to fly
Into the blue of
the wide open sky
Show me your scars
I'll show you mine
Perched out of the city
On a pair of power lines
On grounds I'll
sing and dance
I just might fall but
I'll take that chance
All that I want is
A pair of wings to fly
Into the blue of
the wide open sky
Show me your scars
I'll show you mine
Perched out of the city
On a pair of power lines
All that I want is
A pair of wings to fly
Into the blue of
the wide open sky
Show me your scars
I'll show you mine
Perched out of the city
On a pair of power lines
All that I want is
A pair of wings to fly
Into the blue of
the wide open sky
Show me your scars
I'll show you mine
Perched out of the city
On a pair of power lines
