Dessert for Donny/Handshake

1
Brent?
What's up, Donny?
Can I come in?
Uh, sure.
Yeah, come on in.
I know it's a little late,
but I wanted to give you
something.
You're going to love it.
Okay. What is it?
Check this out.
What is it?
Want to take a peek-peek?
- Yeah.
- Yeah?
Oh.
Whoop, there it is.
It look good, huh?
100% all-American cherry pie.
You want a slice?
Oh
I'm okay.
Come on,
I just baked it today.
- Have a slice.
- Shoot.
Honestly,
I just brushed my teeth.
Well, then you already
got a good base.
You can just use a little
mouthwash after.
Try one slice.
Come on, for me.
N I shouldn't.
Damn, I must have
misunderstood.
Huh. I thought you had
a sweet tooth.
I do have a sweet tooth.
It's just, honestly,
when I go to bed
and eat sugar late,
it's just hard to sleep.
Pfft. Man, I wish I knew that
before I spent the whole day
making this for you.
- You spent all day making this?
- Pretty much.
Well, I guess I can have
a sliver.
I'ma give you a thick sliver.
Eat.
Feed.
Attaboy.
Oh
Hey, pal, I almost finished
my Sudoku.
Oh
Sport?
What's going on?
I didn't get much sleep,
and I don't feel very good.
Okay. Well,
do you have to show it?
I thought we talked about
hiding our bad moods
around the house.
You don't always hide
your bad moods.
No, I don't, but
you know the deal.
We're a team.
And I rely on your good moods
To pull you through
the Sea of Sorrow.
Yeah.
'Cause I'm like a water-skier
And I'm the speedboat
pulling you,
and if I stop,
you'll sink into
the Sea of Sorrow.
Yeah. So,
why don't you hit the gas
and fake a smile for me?
Okay.
There it is.
Hey, Donny.
Thanks for letting me in.
No, no, no, stay where you are.
I'll come to you.
Damn, it's chilly out there.
Whew.
Look, I don't think I can
have any pie tonight, Brent.
What, you didn't like the pie?
No, it was ten out of ten.
I just don't sleep well
when I eat pie that late.
Oh, I see why you trippin',
but you actually don't need
to trip,
because we ain't even
eating pie anyway.
- We're not?
- Nah.
We got something different
tonight.
Crème brulée.
I worked on this custard
all day.
Let me just glaze that ass
right quick.
Brent, I can't
Come on, sing it, Donny.
Let me just glaze that ass
right quick ♪
Let me just
glaze that ass right quick ♪
There you go.
You earned it.
Let me just
glaze that ass right quick ♪
Brent, I told you.
I can't sleep
when I eat sweets this late.
All right, you don't
have to eat it.
Just crack the glaze
with the back of your spoon,
and see what happens.
See what's below the ice.
Indulge yourself.
Hey, Cory.
- You know peer pressure?
- Mm-hm.
Have you ever succumbed to it?
Yes.
Once.
A peer of mine once pressured me
to read a book.
Gave it to me as a gift.
Said it had changed his life,
I absolutely had to read it.
Well, I tried, but
the book was thick,
and small print.
In Russian, I believe.
Couldn't tell the difference
between the name of a character
and the name of a city.
Oh, my goodness.
I thought I'd made it
through the first chapter,
but it turned out
just to be the foreword.
Well, by the time
that first chapter
really came along,
I didn't have the patience.
I put it on the shelf
and never picked it up again.
So what happened to your peer?
I avoided my peer because I
didn't want to talk about it,
and as a result,
I never saw my peer again.
Oh.
Does that help?
No.
Hey, Donny.
What happened to your ladder?
Um
I think somebody stole it.
Damn. That pisses me off.
Donny, this is Keith.
I ran into Keith
at the grocery store,
and we got to talking
about your sweet tooth.
And then he piped in and said
he wanted to make you fondue.
I said, "Perfect, I'm going to
Donny's house anyway."
Please don't make me fondue.
Whoa, whoa, whoa,
Keith got a sitter
so he could be here tonight.
You got a sitter?
Yeah.
Just give it to me.
Hell yeah.
You got this.
Ugh
Oh
Hey, squirt.
Get dressed.
Ohh
Hey, guys. What's up?
- Hey, Brent.
- Oh, my grappling hook.
Thanks for bringing it back.
Mind if we come in?
Yeah, sure, come on in.
What a treat.
- What's up, my man?
- Hey, Brent.
Cory, can I get you a
macaroon?
No thanks, Brent.
I'm good.
No, you're going to want
one of these.
Keith, get Cory a macaroon.
As Keith is my witness,
I swoon for the macaroon.
No thanks, Keith.
I'm good.
What, you ain't hungry?
We all hungry!
Ain't nothing wrong with it,
Cor.
You need to just let yo' body
do its thing.
I said I'm good, Brent.
Do you not think I'm good?
Oh, I think you're good.
I'm trying to make you
real good.
See?
Macaroon before noon.
I haven't even
eaten breakfast yet.
I'm a bad boy.
Eat it.
Donny tells me
you've been bringing him
lots of late-night treats.
We make a great team,
me and Donny.
Don't we, Donny?
- Uh-huh.
- I like to bake,
he likes to eat.
I like to feed,
he likes to gain.
Stockton to Malone.
It's a beautiful dance.
Well
That all sounds very nice,
and to thank you for that
Tell him about your gift.
I don't need anything
in return.
You see, Cory,
giving is the gift.
Oh, nonsense, Brent.
After all you've done for him?
Donny, go ahead
and give him the gift.
Hi, Brent.
So to thank you for all
the wonderful desserts
you fed me,
I got you a little something.
Oh, shit.
A book.
This book completely
changed my life.
You have to read it.
Damn,
this book is thick.
Not that
that's a bad thing.
I like a book
with some back on it.
Whoa, small font.
Now, I don't want
to hang out again
until you finish the book 'cause
I wanna talk about it with you.
- Got it, mister?
- Look at that.
That the name of a town
or the name of a character?
- Ha ha.
- Well
Brent, we'll leave you to it.
Have a nice day.
Bye, Brent.
Hey, pal. My sleeping pills
are kicking in,
so I just wanted to say
good night.
Hey, Cor?
You don't think he's ever
going to come back, do ya?
Oh, something tells me
we've seen
the last of old Brent.
Okay. Good night, Cor.
End of Chapter 12
and end of what I believe
Thank goodness
for books on tape.
How's the book?
Well, it actually changed
my life.
In fact, I can't wait to talk
about it with Donny,
over cupcakes.
I'm a bad boy.
The most powerful
jungle cat in the Americas.
Hey, Frank.
How much do you think
a jaguar weighs?
Oh, a buck 15, a buck 20,
maybe.
Pfft. For an adult male?
- Try three bills, brother.
- Damn.
- Seriously?
- Mm-hm.
- What are you guys watching?
- "Planet Earth."
- You mind if I join?
- Yeah, come on.
So
Make it possible
to film these great cats
Okay, uh, what do you say
we pause this program
and put on the Laker
pre-season game, huh?
Starts in a couple minutes.
- Was by using
specially constructed
Actually, I got to go home
and wash my hair.
Oh, I'll walk you out, Frank.
Uh, Frank,
what are you doing tomorrow?
Oh, I'll be around.
Actually, I'ma come through.
I want to see what happens
to that jaguar.
- Oh, yeah, come by.
- All right. Cool.
All right, man.
Try it.
Ooh. Mm!
- Bounce factory!
- Bounce factory!
- See you, Frank.
- All right, Donny. One love.
"Bounce factory."
Hey, Christian.
What brings you by?
Listen. I
was wondering if you'd
like to come up with
a secret handshake with me.
Christian, you're coming in
a little hot right now.
Just go with me
for a second here.
Okay? This is
what I have so far.
And keep in mind
I'm not precious
about any of these moves,
so your input's totally welcome.
Okay. Um
So I go front, back,
side to side
Okay, Christian,
I-I'll stop you right there.
I just think I'm not interested
in doing a secret handshake.
Well, don't you and Donny
have a secret handshake?
No.
Oh.
I'm sorry. I
saw Donny and Frankie
do a secret handshake
in the courtyard,
and I assumed
you and Donny had one,
since you're roommates and all.
Wait, I'm sorry.
Donny and Frankie
have a secret handshake?
Yeah.
It's really cool.
I wonder if it wasn't
so much a
secret handshake as it was
spur-of-the-moment horseplay?
No, this wasn't horseplay.
It seemed pretty well-rehearsed.
They also had a catchphrase
at the end.
"Bounce factory"?
"Bounce factory."
I wonder what that means.
I imagine it was some
sort of inside joke.
Well, if you change your mind,
you let me know.
Sorry.
Hey, Kevin.
Hey.
Would you be interested
in coming up with
a secret handshake with me?
Hey, pal.
Oh, hey, Cor.
Yes, I wanted to ask you
a question.
Do you and Frankie
have a secret handshake?
Oh
Do me and Frank
have a secret handshake?
Is that what you said?
Look, I know you do.
Christian came over, and he said
he saw you and Frankie
doing one outside.
Listen, I want you
to knock that off.
Oh, really?
We were just having fun.
Yeah, for you two.
But imagine we're at a party,
and then you two say goodbye
like that,
and then what would
the rest of us do? Just watch?
Just makes saying goodbye
confusing and
and longer.
And who wants to have
- a long goodbye?
- Hm.
I want you to take
that handshake
and crumple it up in a ball.
- Now throw it out the window.
- That's littering.
Well, it's your property,
so who cares? Throw it.
Don't just drop it
where you'll find it later.
Huck it.
- With your dominant hand.
- I'm ambidextrous.
Fine.
Don't look where it went.
Just sit back down.
Great. Thank you.
Okay, well, I'm going to go
to Jamba Juice.
Do you want to come?
I'm good, thanks.
Okay, well,
I'm still going to go.
My wallet's on the fridge.
Ah. Yep.
Found it.
Just gonna take a $20.
I'll bring back the change.
He has the advantage
of being
the largest bull around.
Hey, Frank.
Guess how much a hippo weighs.
Uh, you talking adult male?
Yeah.
Uh, I'd say about 500 pounds.
Try 2 tons, my man.
Ooh, I gotta get to therapy,
my boy-ee!
All right, Donny.
Catch you later, man.
All right.
See you, Frank.
Yo, I'm leaving, man.
Bounce factory.
Listen, Frank,
about the factory
I think we're going to have to
shut it down.
What?
The thing is,
Cory made a few good points
about how it could be
a little confusing
if everyone in the group
has a secret handshake.
Who cares, man?
That's our thing.
I know, but him and I
don't have one, and
Come on, Donny.
That ain't you.
All right.
Well
but when we get to
"bounce factory,"
just don't say it too loud,
all right?
Yeah, all right, fine.
All right.
Donny.
Hurry.
Hey, pal?
Are you upstairs?
Hi.
Got a little treat for you.
Come on, Frank,
the bird's cooked. Let's go.
Ooh!
Bounce factory.
Cory
hey.
Hi, Frank.
Didn't know you were here.
Hey, Cor.
Donny, I brought this for you.
It's the rest of my smoothie.
I didn't finish it,
thought maybe you'd want it.
It's Razzmatazz
with the, uh, immuno-boost.
Cory
So, how long has this
secret handshake been going on?
Five, six months, probably.
That sounds about right.
And what about the, uh,
the catchphrase?
"Bounce factory"?
Oh, that was sort of a
it's an inside joke.
Oh.
I mean, but if you're
at all interested,
we'd be more than happy
to show you "bounce."
I don't think so.
You know, handshakes,
they really are just
such a waste of time, you know?
Well, a lot of things
that are fun
are a waste of time, Cor.
Like playing Bubble Bash
on your iPad
or hanging out at Jamba Juice
all day.
Watching pre-season
Laker games.
Heck, you read that
Phil Jackson memoir
about a gazillion times.
Some would say
that's a waste of time.
A waste of time.
That's not a waste of time.
Phil Jackson's a Zen master,
and I'm a spiritual person.
Got it?
Yeah.
Wait.
Cory, can you do that again?
Do what again?
I just blacked out for a second.
Well, you tried to punch me,
but you came up short.
Whoa. One more time,
but this time, slower.
Stop.
Just raise it up.
- Donny.
- It's okay, Frank.
I got it.
It's okay.
It's all right, big boy.
Good.
Now, what do you think, Frank?
Maybe a little pump, or
Eh, like a shimmy pump?
Like that?
Just once.
Ooh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, I'm sort of feeling
something there.
Hold on.
Hey, Frank.
You know, this is actually
something
Kobe used to do
to celebrate a big play.
He never had a secret handshake
with anyone on his team.
As the leader,
he wasn't allowed to be nice
to anyone, but
but if something really great
happened,
you'd see him
go like that.
It always made me feel
something.
Think I might go for a walk
just kind of give it a try.
Well, then go on.
Front,
back, side to side,
elbows, elbow, sugar shack!
Hey, sugar boys.
Close up the sugar shack.
This one's for everyone.
- Hey, Frank.
- Yeah?
Guess how much Cory weighs.
I don't know. He's definitely
taller than you,
but he has skinny legs.
I'd say about buck 65, buck 70.
Pfft.
Try two bills, my man.
