1 - [CHUCKLES.]

- [WHOOPS.]
- Yay.
Cheers.
[WHOOPS.]
Mm.
[SIGHS.]
Oh, that takes me back.
To what? Uh, our last HOA meeting.
Oh, I can already tell I'm gonna get into a fight tonight.
[CHUCKLES.]
Ooh, I'm so excited.
We get full VIP treatment, - which means free drinks.
- [CHUCKLES.]
Yeah.
- [WHOOPS.]
- And Oh, my God.
How is it already 8:40? 8:40? That's practically 9:15! - Crazy.
- No.
No.
[YAWNING.]
Not tonight.
We won't let you do that thing where you get tired and talk yourselves out of going out.
You're right, you're right.
I'm sorry.
Okay.
Full VIP treatment.
- Backstage.
Sold-out concert.
- Yeah.
Yep! - [WHOOPING.]
- Yeah, it sounds great! - Yeah.
[CHUCKLES.]
- [CHUCKLES.]
- But I did just get a new pillow.
- Mm-hmm.
And we're going grocery shopping tomorrow, you know? With all the driving and the parking and then you forget to validate and then you got to go back inside.
And they're all like, "Validation's for customers only.
" And you're like, "I was just in here, Janine!" CLAIRE: Yeah, plus, we got to be fresh tomorrow, 'cause we're meeting with a life insurance agent.
[LAUGHS.]
Why do you guys need life insurance? You're zero risk.
Well, actually, we have been talking about starting a family soon.
JAKE: Uh you're not excited? We're just tired of getting our hopes up.
You two have been dangling that carrot in front of us for so long we've got baby blue balls.
No, I-I mean, we'd love to have kids.
It's just, you know, it's been really crazy at work, you know? Um, but after tax season, it's gonna be, uh, "tax that ass" season.
[CHUCKLES.]
Well, trust us, it's good to get your party days in before you have kids.
Or someday you will find yourself retired early and sneaking so much rosé into your cornflakes you end up hitting on the mailman.
All I said is Jeff has nice calves.
What, now I can't say facts? I don't want to fight about it.
Hey, guys.
Who's ready to party? - [WHOOPS.]
- [WHOOPS.]
All right.
- Um - Eh [BOTH SUCK IN AIR THROUGH TEETH.]
- So yeah.
- [YAWNS.]
Is it okay if we take a rain check? COOPER: Oh, yeah.
Yeah, for sure.
I'll hit you up the next time I've sold out the Forum three nights in a row and convinced Post Malone to open for me.
Great, man.
Sounds good.
[CHUCKLES.]
[YAWNS.]
Any idea what a Post Malone is? Uh I think it's what you do when you're finished Maloning.
Imagine me and you, I do I think about you day and night It's only right So happy together [VOCALIZING.]
[SIGHS.]
Wow.
All that sleep we got was amaz-z-z-zing.
Yeah.
I added a few extra Zs 'cause I caught so many.
[CHUCKLES.]
: Oh.
I know.
I tried to wake you up, and you flipped me off in your sleep.
- Oh, my God.
- [GROANS.]
Wow.
I guess Cooper's after-party must've been cray.
Do people still say "cray"? I think only when they're describing "how a bitch be," but All right, baby.
Let's take out the trash.
Okay.
Yeah, I'll try to wake 'em up.
Um Okay.
Mommy.
Dad.
[GROANING.]
Can I talk to 'em? [HIGH-PITCHED.]
: 'Scuse me, uh, Bonnie, Gerald.
Can you, uh [AIR HORN BLOWS LOUDLY.]
All right, folks, time to get up and get goin', please.
Your house is way more comfortable, and it's also [CHUCKLES.]
a lot quieter.
[AIR HORN BLOWS.]
Soo! Okay.
All cards on the table Either I dreamt about peeing on your couch or I peed on your couch.
[HISSING.]
[DOOR CLOSES.]
Oh, hey, buddy.
How was the concert? Well, I thought it went well, but according to this L.
A.
Times review, "the venue was full, but the songs were empty.
" And then he gave it four out of five poop emojis.
Why do you care what this reviewer says? Because.
'cause I kind of agree with him.
You know, I'm 40 days into my tour, and I feel like I just sing the same shallow songs over and over again.
Dude, you're 21.
What are you gonna sing about, opening a Roth IRA? [CHUCKLES.]
Why don't you try writing a song that's more meaningful to you? Well, I have.
Most of my songs start out sincere.
But then I'd get scared that my fans won't like them, so I increase the tempo, add a beat, and then change the word "heart" to "butt.
" Huh.
That does explain Girl, relax your butt, let my lovin' flow Entwine your butt with mine, let the lovin' grow.
Claire, I-I knew you could sing, but you have a really amazing voice.
Oh, come on.
I mean, I don't know if that's True Yeah.
Claire, I'm serious.
Well, uh, you know, if you want to sing a more personal song, why don't you test it out at your next concert? Because fans hate new music at concerts.
Have you ever been booed by thousands of people? Yes.
At Dodger Stadium, when I snagged a foul ball from a small man who turned out to be a kid.
In a wheelchair.
Well, why don't you try doing a smaller, more intimate show? What, alone? No-no backup dancers? No pyrotechnics? Guys, I'll feel naked without my laser tuxedo.
I mean, you could make it a duet, and then you'll have someone up there with you.
That's actually a great idea.
I can't wait to start changing my lyrics back from "butt" to "heart.
" Oh! Your latest single was supposed to be "Eat Your HeartOut.
" Gosh, I can't believe how healthy and safe you guys are.
You're on track for the lowest life insurance rate I've ever seen.
So, just a few more questions.
Do you have any pre-existing medical conditions? Well, I've been told I have too big a heart.
[CHUCKLES.]
Oh.
You suffer from hypertrophic cardiomyopathy? No.
No, I was just being cute.
[CHUCKLES.]
Now, do you have any kids? [CHUCKLES.]
Not that I know of.
[CHUCKLES.]
Wait.
That only works for guys.
[CHUCKLES.]
Oh.
Hey, guys.
Don't mind me.
I'm just grabbing a snack.
Which, in this house, are all "low in sodium and high in fiber.
" How W Was that Cooper James? Um, does he live here? Yeah, it's your, uh, standard "millionaire pop star moves in "with his accountant because he craves a sense of normalcy" situation.
But-but he could live anywhere.
[CHUCKLES.]
Why would he choose here? Is You're, like Well, how do I say this politely? Immensely boring.
- [CHUCKLES.]
Okay.
- Um - We are not boring.
- Yeah.
I mean, if you really knew how we were, I mean, you'd be hitting us with a higher rate.
[LAUGHS.]
So you're committing insurance fraud? - No, no, no, no, no, no.
- No, no.
All No, no.
All the all the answers we gave were true.
- CLAIRE: Yeah.
- You know? It just But they don't paint the full picture of who we are.
- Like, we're cool.
Right? - We're cool.
I mean, Claire, tell her one of our awesome stories.
- Hit her, man.
- Oh.
Awesome.
So, - yeah, there's, uh, the one ti um - Right? - Get ready.
- Oh! Oh.
There was that one time that we almost committed insurance fraud.
[CHUCKLES.]
Look, I'm sorry I called you boring.
It's just that Cooper James is Cooper James.
And, you know, you're See, I already forgot your names.
No, but, seriously, you two don't need life insurance.
You need get-a-life insurance.
[LAUGHING.]
You know what, you might want to look into fire insurance, too, after that sick burn.
[LAUGHS.]
Oh, this is fun! [GROANS.]
Man, I guess we don't have to try so hard at being boring, 'cause we just are.
Relax, Claire.
That's just the opinion of someone who evaluates the relative excitement of people's lives for a living.
Jake, last night, we got invited to a concert by the biggest pop star in music.
And, instead, we stayed home and ranked the months of the year.
Yeah, yeah, I guess you're right.
I, uh, guess we have gotten into a bad habit of saying no to adventure.
Great news, guys.
I took your advice, and, as of tonight, I'm doing a small show at the Troubadour.
- Oh, that's awesome, man.
- Yeah.
Yeah, I'm doing a duet with Laurel Tyson.
- What? - Huh? The lead singer of Human Disco.
- Uh - Come again? They had that hit song, "Loser Police.
" - Uh - Uh That they used in that Nespresso commercial.
- Oh! - Oh! - Yeah! - [LAUGHS.]
- I love that song.
- That is such a good s - Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
- So good.
I would get it.
You know, as usual, you guys are welcome to come.
But you probably have an excuse as to why you can't.
- Nope.
Not this time.
- No, I'm pretty sure - we can think of something.
- No, I mean I mean we should go.
- We're gonna go.
- Oh.
- Right.
We're gonna go.
Yeah.
- We're in! - Really? - Yeah! Amazing.
All right, well, my driver will be here soon, - if you want to come with me.
- Okay.
Yay! I guess we should change.
No way.
You guys are amazing.
Oh.
You mean clothes.
Uh, yeah.
Yeah, definitely.
I've got to say, Jake, you look pretty sexy in Cooper's skinny jeans.
Yeah, Claire, too sexy.
- Feels like I'm smuggling grapes.
- [LAUGHS.]
Hey, there she is.
Guys, this is my duet partner, Laurel.
So, are you excited to sing with Cooper tonight? His new song is so good.
JAKE: Ah Do you have, like, a whole bunch of signs for different situations, or just the one sign? - Oh.
- It's just the one sign, okay.
We're gonna go warm up.
You guys have fun.
Those VIP bracelets give you access to everything.
- Ooh.
- [LAUGHING.]
: Oh Hello.
- [GIGGLES.]
- [IMITATES COCKING, FIRING GUN.]
Oh Jake, this is, like, one of those parties where the prostitutes are so fancy you can't tell them apart from just a regular skank.
[LAUGHS.]
Oh, God, this is so fun.
[YAWNING.]
: Yeah, this was just such a great call to come out tonight.
No, Jake.
You lock it up.
Come on.
Cool people don't yawn.
They do awesome things, like walk into a party and say, "I'm bored.
" You're right.
You're right.
Time to go huge.
Tonight we say good-bye to the old Jake and Claire who get excited over simple things.
Oh, jumbo shrimp.
Look at all these jumbo shrimp.
Oh.
Oh.
Hey, man.
[CHUCKLES.]
Don't sleep on that garlic shrimp.
You know what I'm saying? Ha-ha! - I'm cool.
- Hey, you guys want to hit one of these? Oh? Oh, my God, these are real live drugs.
What do we do? Drug people hate it when you don't take their drugs.
Okay, obviously, there's only one thing to do here.
- Ah.
- Mm-hmm.
Let me get one of them things, man.
I don't care if it's a weekday.
You know what I'm saying? [CHUCKLES.]
See you on the other side, girl.
[CHUCKLES.]
Mmm.
Okay, you can spit yours out.
What? I swallowed mine.
What? Why? Because we said we were gonna go huge tonight.
That doesn't include taking random drugs from a stranger.
And we just shared the "we'd fake it" look.
That wasn't a "fake it" look, that was a "take it" look.
- Okay, this is a "fake it" look.
- Right.
This is a "take it" look.
That's the exact same look.
My God, Claire, I'm gonna die.
[CHOKING.]
: It's already burning my throat.
Okay, okay, you know what? - [HACKING.]
- Relax.
It's a small pill.
You're a big guy.
I'm sure that you can handle whatever drug it is.
Oh.
Did you not want that? I guess they're a little strong.
Wha Who, me? [CHUCKLES.]
I already took mine, girl.
- This is his.
- [CHUCKLES.]
He's mine.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Mmm.
- Okay, you can spit that out now.
- I swallowed that one, too.
- Why?! I panicked.
Oh, my God, Claire, what did I what did I take? What if it's one of those drugs where I end up eating someone's face? Okay, you know what? Just-just try to stay calm.
I'm gonna go ask him what you took.
[COUGHING.]
: It's probably bath salts.
Oh, no.
I've become addicted to my favorite way to relax.
[HACKING.]
Guys, I'll be straight with you.
I took a narcotic tablet, and, uh, I'm dealing with the real-world consequences right now.
- [COUGHS.]
- You, uh, seem fine.
And even if I'm not, it's okay, it's okay.
Okay, Jake, I asked the dude what drug he gave you.
What was it? Yayo? Smack? Fleck? Nurp-nurp? Quam? It was a mint.
A mint! Oh, I've never even heard of that! [SOBS.]
Is this, like, a Class A narcotic? Yeah, "A" for Altoids.
- "A" for - He gave you a mint because your breath was so bad from eating the garlic shrimp.
I see.
Ha! Yeah, man, I knew that.
I assume the patient-paramedic confidentiality agreement will be honored? Well, that's not a thing.
And I'm definitely telling all my friends.
Okay.
Uh Sorry, you need a wristband.
Um, uh, the medic just ripped mine off.
I was just in here, man.
It's me.
Come on, man, I know Coop.
That's my guy.
Like, we're best friends.
He's gonna sleep in my attic tonight.
I'm wearing his pants.
Come on, let me in.

- Oh Hi, guys.
Will you watch from the side stage? Knowing you're here will help ease my nerves.
Yeah, of course we'll be there, Cooper.
These guys are with me.

Can I have my microphone? Oh, yeah.
Sorry.
- Warmed it up for you.
A little wet.
- Yeah.
Thank you.
Guys.
I'm nervous.
What if my fans hate it? What if they love it? You'll never know if you don't try.
[SIGHS.]
Thanks, guys.
[CHUCKLES.]
Hey.
People said I was crazy when I told them I was moving in with my accountant, but it's the best decision I've ever made.
Except for when I was 12 and I posted a video of me singing on YouTube that got a billion views.
Yeah.
- That was a good decision.
- [CHUCKLES.]
Well, the feeling's mutual.
- [CHUCKLING.]
- Kill it, buddy.
