Hello.
Hi.
Yes.
What's up? - Uh, nothing.
I was just - I thought you were well, Mom said that you had to run in to work today, and, yeah, that's all.
No, I just I thought she No, I do.
That's true, but, uh, it was, uh, lunchtime, and so here I am, grabbing a bite.
That's cool.
I mean, weird.
Yeah, I know.
No, I mean, it's good.
Uh, have you eaten here before? I haven't.
It's it's, uh, really nice.
I like it.
Me too.
I mean, yes, I did once me and a friend.
Have I ever introduced you to my friend Chan'dra? Uh, we ate here once.
And I feel like Mom and me or Stacy either Mom or Stacy and me also did one time.
Huh.
Well, that's that's that's great.
Yeah.
It's definitely tasty the the food.
So Yep.
Y you want to sit, uh, for a minute, - or or - Uh, actually, no.
I just well, I came in here to, uh, get an application for work.
Oh.
You don't like your your job, or It's fine.
No, it's definitely fine.
It's just, here you get tips and the hours are It's useful, sometimes, to have a little cash around when you need it.
That is true.
That's that's that makes sense.
Okay.
Yeah, so I mean, no.
That's not true.
I I can sit for a second.
You don't have to.
I just mean, if you're busy, uh, don't worry about me.
No, it's fine.
I'm happy to for a second.
Did you want to order, or, uh No, I should probably head out soon.
Only if you have to.
I was just I think I might even get mine to go.
Okay, that's cool.
Yeah, get into the office, get a bit of work done so I can really enjoy the rest of the weekend with you guys.
Awesome.
Yep, it'll be fun.
Maybe we can all go see a movie or or something.
But you can, uh you can order if you, uh, want to.
That's perfectly all right.
No, no, I I just Uh, you'll probably have to ask, uh, for a manager or someone like that, though.
Huh? For the application.
Oh, right.
Sure, yes, that - makes sense.
- Unless they do it online.
Some places do it that way now.
No, yeah, that's true.
Uh, Nike did it like that, and the Apple Store, too.
[Chuckling.]
Of course they would.
They probably go to the bathroom online.
[Chuckles.]
[Sighs.]
Anyway, don't let me keep you.
You, uh, do your thing, and I'll [Clicks tongue.]
order.
Yeah, uh let me go ask someone.
Hey, there.
Hi.
Hello.
Can I help you? Yeah, uh, are you guys hiring? Uh, dishwashers, I think, but you're, uh you don't want that.
- At least, I'm guessing.
- Why not? 'Cause, uh, we usually hire not guys like you for that.
I don't get what you mean.
Not guys who look like you.
Well, what kind of guys, then? Just not, uh not from the United States.
Oh, I see.
Does that make sense? Yeah, no, i it does.
Cool, so I can get you in touch with the manager, but I think it's just for cleaning up and stuff.
Uh, we'll probably have some openings soon, but It's cool.
Maybe another time.
Great.
Hey, Chan'dra.
Hi, what's going on? Yeah, no.
I I'm here.
I know.
No, that's not the problem.
Right.
No, he could be late with traffic or whatever.
No, but listen.
My dad's here.
Yeah, I know.
I can't believe this.
Yeah.
Yes.
No, I I I walked in, I'm looking around.
Yes, I'm carrying the book.
I said I would be, and he's supposed to have Gatsby, too.
And there's my dad.
No, I don't know.
He's having lunch.
That's not that No, he's supposed to be over in Santa Monica at work.
Yeah.
So, I can't stay.
I got to Nno, I made up a story.
I said I came in here looking for a job.
I know, but what was I gonna say? "No, actually, Dad, this is where I'm meeting up with some guy.
No, just a guy I met on the Internet.
" I mean, come on.
Whatever.
I don't know.
It's it's Gary, I guess.
Could be fake.
I said mine was Bill.
[Chuckles.]
Anyway, I just thought it was funny that my dad was here, so I figured I'd give you a call.
I'll yeah, I I I hope so, too.
Okay.
No, I I'll call you later, okay? I yes, I will.
I don't know, later.
Okay.
Okay.
Bye.
Any luck? No, just dishwashers, and they don't seem to want me for that.
No? Why not? Get it? Uh, I guess.
No.
You're not experienced enough, or, uh I wasn't born in Mexico City.
They actually said that to you? Pretty much, in so many words.
Wow, this country.
I know.
Land of the free, home of the brave, or something.
Oh, I think those days are long gone.
Yeah, probably so.
Well, if you need to go, uh I think I should.
I, uh I have stuff to do, and I work tonight, too.
I'm closing.
You need a ride? No, I'm good.
I've got my bike.
All right.
I don't love you riding that thing around town, but if, - uh - I'm careful.
You know that.
No, that's true.
You are.
- I really am.
- Fine, then.
I just I worry.
Yeah, so So, I will see you at home later.
- Yep, around 10:00 or so.
- Great.
You excited about Disney this summer? Um, I think so.
Sure.
You don't have to go, you know, if you don't want to.
- I know you're getting older and everything, so - No, no.
That that that's not it.
I I'm just saying I get it, all right? I've told your mom I would take the time, we'd go with your sister.
She loves it there, but if you, you know, you're working or or what have you, it's it's up to you, all right? You're old enough to make up your own mind.
Plus, we need someone to watch the dogs.
Aha.
The truth comes out.
[Chuckles.]
I'm just saying.
Anyway, I should probably go ahead and take off.
I'll see you at home later.
Yep.
See you.
Great.
Hmm.
That's weird.
Yeah, what's that? Someone was reading the same book.
I seated him earlier.
He has "Gatsby," too.
Wait, which guy? Where? Oh.
That is weird.
Maybe I will grab a bite with you, if that's okay.
[Chuckles.]
Great.
How's your food? It's good.
I like the food here.
Great.
You just not hungry? Not really.
Eyes bigger than my stomach, I guess.
I do that a lot.
Sometimes.
Yeah, sometimes.
Wish I could pack it up all in a box and send it to China like your, uh like they always tell you in the commercials, or if you don't finish something and then Yeah, what? You know, your parents will say there are children starving in Africa stuff like that to their own kids.
I'm sure Mom and I did the same thing to you guys.
You have.
See, I don't know why that is.
My mom and dad did the same thing to me.
We always want to teach lessons to people show everybody that we've learned something along the way or something like that.
No, that's true.
It sounds right on the money.
Can't help ourselves showing off.
Maybe so.
Come on, you know it's true.
Look at, uh, Facebook and, uh, Twitter and talk shows and so many things.
It's it's we love to discuss and talk and brag about ourselves, what we're thinking and doing and feeling.
It's endless.
Used to be we were fine with just celebrities doing it, but now it's everyone.
We all want in on it, as if we're all equally interesting and important and meaningful and [Chuckles.]
I'm sorry.
Forget it.
God, listen to me.
I'm now officially an old fart.
Dad, you're not so bad.
Right, you're just saying that 'cause I'm buying you lunch.
Probably.
[Chuckles.]
You really think all that stuff - about the Internet and - Yeah, pretty much.
I mean, it's definitely it's good for some things, like when my mom was sick, Grandma.
When she was sick, it was very helpful for me to be able to look things up the medical names of things or or or drugs.
And yes, I will go on and get sports scores and things like that, but, uh, overall, I would say it's it's a real time drag and a place where a lot of bad things can happen, or at least get started.
[Chuckles.]
I'll shut up now.
[Chuckles.]
No, no.
That's okay.
Price I pay for a hamburger.
I'm just kidding, anyway.
I know you are.
I mean, - sort of.
- Yeah, sort of.
I'm never gonna be a Twitter guy, but there are a lot of good things about computers, obviously.
- Obviously.
- Yep.
Well, um, I should, uh, probably get going if you're, uh Oh, sure.
Just, can I grab a few more bites, if that's okay? Sure.
Eat up.
You know Facebook, right? What's that? You don't have a Facebook page, do you? No.
No.
No, I don't.
I mean, not through work or anything like that? You don't even do that.
Or, like, chat rooms or No.
No, no, I don't.
I don't, um I don't think it'd be a very good example to set for the people who, uh, work for me if I had something I didn't want them having at work.
Yeah.
That makes sense, - sure.
- You wouldn't believe the amount of time that people will just sit there in their offices, looking up old friends or or, I don't know, movie times, porno, anything.
[Both chuckle.]
You've actually had people checking out porn - while they're at work? - I don't I don't know.
Not actual but, yeah, very graphic things.
I mean, women and lots of stuff.
Not not what they should be doing at work.
No, I know.
Same in school.
I'm sure one of these days, they'll make kids stop even bringing cellphones or laptops.
It just gets to be too much to just spend half their day playing policemen.
Yeah.
It's crazy.
You know, Mom does Facebook.
Yeah.
Yeah, she does.
That's true.
Uh, a lot of people do.
It's just not for me.
You're not even curious? About what? You know, checking out old friends or making new ones, meeting people? You you mean friends friends you've never actually met before? - Oh, come on.
That's pretty rare.
- Is it really? How many do you have? - Well, I mean - Come on, be honest.
A a couple.
Yes, I do have a few people on there that are, - like, friends of friends, people like that, but - See? I I I know, but I've at least met - most of the people on there - Yeah.
- or done a Skype session with them or something.
- Well, that's great, then.
Let me see if I can get this girl's attention.
But you're let me ask you something.
Yeah, what's that, buddy? Are you and Mom doing okay? - What? - I'm just asking.
Cliff, that's not that you can't ask me anything, but where is that coming from where? - Nowhere.
- No, that's not true.
I just - forget I said anything.
- No, that is not what I want to do, all right? If you have worries about anything, I want you to always feel like you can come to one of us and, you know, ask, get help.
I mean that.
Thanks.
Of course.
- Thank you, Dad.
- Sure.
But honestly now, Cliff, where where did that come from, that question? I really was just asking.
I seriously was.
It's not a big deal.
- [Chuckling.]
Well - You guys seem I don't know like you and Mom are kind of just going along.
Cliff, we are working.
We're both working.
We you have a job now and school.
You're getting a taste of what it's like.
It is not like a movie.
It's not all fun and games when you're our age, okay? I know.
I know.
God.
It's just, it's upsetting.
- Sorry, no, really, I - No, not you.
You're not making me angry or whatever.
It's just I feel bad having my kids pick up on things that are you know, fine, but, yes, different than they were before.
That's right.
But, god, - I really am sorry.
- Dad, please, don't worry about it.
[Sighs.]
It's all right.
It's no, it's fine.
It it really is fine.
All right.
It's just your mother and I have been a team for [Sighs.]
Well, a long time.
- We've been together for - I I know.
- And she's an amazing woman.
- Okay.
- Your mother.
- Okay.
All right? Stop.
She is.
You know she is.
- You love her.
- Of course.
[Plate shatters.]
I can give you this, or I can tempt you with some pretty fabulous desserts.
Which is it gonna be? You win.
Tempt away.
[Cellphone beeps.]
[Cellphone beeps.]
[Sniffs.]
[Clears throat.]
You okay, buddy? Yeah, I I'm fine.
Just tired.
[Clears throat.]
It's work.
They want me to come in early.
See? What? What I was saying before.
Used to be we would call somebody or ask them something like that right to their face.
Now we just we text them, we e-mail them.
Anything to keep them at arm's length.
Life is funny.
I mean, you know? Yeah, I know.
It is funny.
Anything else for you guys? I think we're good.
Dad? Yep.
This is your dad? No.
[Chuckling.]
Come on.
[Chuckles.]
Yes, I am.
Proud father of this great guy right here.
Figured you two were twins.
Thank you, young lady, and that's perfect timing for a great big tip.
[Chuckles.]
See, you're not old, Dad.
The waitress was confused.
She thought we were brothers.
The oldest trick in the book, and I'm happy to fall for it every time.
She's cute.
Dad.
Not for me.
Good.
I don't think Mom would approve.
Absolutely not.
I meant for you.
Oh, I see.
Yeah, you should've said something or or, uh Another good reason to get yourself a job here.
That's I don't need your help with girls.
- Thanks very much.
- Everybody needs help with girls.
Yeah, well, not me.
No, that's probably true.
Handsome guy like you.
- Stop.
- I'm just saying.
I I can't have this conversation with you right now.
I know.
I know.
You're too old now, is that it? - I got nothing to teach you? - No, that's not I I just don't want to do the whole girl thing right now, okay? Okay.
I get it.
You probably got a whole bunch of ladies after you already, is that it? - Something like that.
- Yep.
Like that, um, what's her name? You said it to me earlier.
- Chan'dra? - Yeah.
Your mom said that you, uh No.
She's just a friend.
That's all.
Right.
A friend.
Stop.
She is.
That is how your mother and I started out.
- Just remember that.
- I will.
- And look where we ended up.
- Yep.
Two love birds sitting in a tree with two more little birds up there with us.
- You're so strange, Dad, seriously.
- Oh, I'm just playing.
I know, but yes, she's a friend.
That's the story on that one.
Fine.
Fine.
I'm always the last to know on everything about everyone in our family, anyway, so it doesn't matter.
Well, somebody's got to be last.
Might as well be you.
I I got to go.
- I'll just get the, uh - Bill? What? Nothing.
Just sounded like you were about to ask for the bill.
But she already dropped that off, right? Uh, yeah, she did.
That's right.
Everything okay? Yeah, s sure, I'm just trying to figure out, uh, to do cash or credit.
I see.
Thanks again.
It was funny to, you know, - run into you here.

I know.
Right? That's Anyway.
Thanks again for lunch.
Yeah, of course.
I love, uh, spending time with you.
Yeah, that's great.
And, listen, Dad, I totally will do that for you guys watch the dogs while you're in Orlando.
- That's fine for me.
- Oh, no, I was kidding.
I was kidding.
No, I know, but We can get a neighborhood kid to do it for a few dollars or Yeah, but if I stay, I'm just saying.
Oh, so you're thinking you you won't come with us? - No, no, that's not what I meant.

Maybe.
We'll talk about it, okay? Yeah, great.
Okay, great.
