ANDREW: Fuck!
Come on! Shit!
Look, not a scratch, Dad, see?
[SLAMS DOOR]
I'm so screwed.
[PHONE RINGING]
Shit.
Hey, Mom, listen, I, uh
You have to come back right now.
Mom, I can't,
but the party starts tomorrow,
and there's
It's not about the party.
It's Lionel. I knew it.
- You knew what?
- Your brother got drunk last night.
With that friend of his,
that idiot, Jason Castle.
- How do you know that?
- Because he's been sleeping all day.
And I can't find the tequila.
[SCOFFS]
I put it in the cabinet
above the refrigerator,
- and now it's gone.
- Are you sure that's where you put it?
Yes, Andrew.
And you know how it makes me feel
when you question my memory.
Mom, listen, I'll call Lionel
and get everything sorted out, okay?
You just find a way to calm down,
take some deep breaths,
do the elliptical;
everything's gonna be fine.
- Oh, God, thank you, honey.
- I'll call you as soon as
- I speak to him, okay?
- Okay.
- Okay? Love you.
- Oh I love you, thanks.

Ly, stop being mean to Mom.
Dude, she's fricking accusing me
of stealing alcohol.
What happened to it?
I don't know.
Maybe someone broke in.
I mean, you've seen Molly's doggy door.
It's definitely big enough
for a small man.
Ly, no one broke in
last night, I was home.
Okay, well,
I I don't know then, Andy.
Mom must've framed me, then,
because she doesn't want me
to have any friends.
So, could one of your friends
have taken it?
Uh, no.
Listen, bud.
You can't tell Mom
what I'm about to tell you,
because she doesn't need
any more stress from us, okay?
Okay.
Dad smoked cigarettes for three years
after he was diagnosed.
Three years,
while he knew he was dying.
While we all knew he was dying.
Dad was stupid.
Take that back.
But you're not like that, okay?
So stop fucking vaping.
You understand me?
Ly, I'm not gonna tell Mom,
but please
please promise me that you'll stop.
- Please, man.
- Okay, I promise.
Okay. Thank you.
All right, I gotta go.
Happy New Year, bud.
Happy New Year.

Jake? Jake?
JAKE: [HIGH-PITCHED]
This isn't Jake, this is Jackie!
- I'm waiting for my midnight kiss.
- Jake? Jake, man,
- listen to me, seriously.
- Where are you?
Jake, I'm stuck on the side
of a mountain in the middle of nowhere.
Dude, I crashed my car, man,
and I can't find my license, and
dude, can you please turn
that fucking thing off?
- I was born this way, man.
- Jake, I'm serious, man, please!
Okay, okay,
I'm turning it off, I'm sorry.
Hold on.
Where's your license?
I don't know, man, I think Lionel
took it to buy a vape or some shit, man.
But, Jake, listen
is there any conceivable way
that you could come pick me up, man?
I'm, like, an hour from Boulder, tops.
Oh, dude, I cannot
spend years in my car
- [BACKGROUND SHOUTS]
- Ronald Farber rolls in, dude!
- Jake Jake
- Dude, he's got a keg
Dude, listen to me, man,
I'm stuck out here.
- waiting for you, man.
- Jake, don't, wait
Bottoms up, Ashley.
Dude, come through, bro.
Jake, I can't go anywhere, I'm stuck
on the side of a fucking mountain.
- Whoa, whoa
- Jake, listen to me, man.
Please, please, I'm dead serious.
I literally are you listening?
- I'm listening!
- I literally got pulled over an hour ago,
and I could go to jail for driving
without my license, man.
Okay, well, dude,
why don't you just call your mom?
What? No, I can't,
dude, are you kidding?
I took the Bronco, my dad's Bronco.
- What? Fuck
- Yeah.
What What are you gonna do?
Dude, I'm gonna get it
towed out of here.
Yes, yes, that's a great idea, man.
You can get a tow truck guy to come
and then give you a ride,
because they do that shit.
No, Jake, they can't do it tonight
because of the storm,
which I will fucking freeze to death in,
if you don't come pick me up, man.
[SIGHING] Oh, my God,
they didn't close the 70 East?
Nope.
- Dude, I hate you so much.
- Dude, I love you.
I love you so much, Jake
Jake, listen, thank you.
Take Snake River Road.
And then take a left and then call me.
Okay, I'm gonna sober up,
and I will be there.
- You start walking.
- Okay.
- Yeah, but hurry, hurry, please.
- Start walking, best-est friend ever, go.
Okay, okay, I will, I will, I will.
Jeez.
Okay.
