Man Seeking Woman (2015) s02e01 Episode Script

Wings

Hey, Josh.
Where you been, man? I've been texting you all week.
I just downloaded the "Blade" trilogy, and I got some new weed called Chupacabra's Nightmare.
It'll get you messed up! Anyway, hang out with me.
Bye.
Hey, guys.
How can I help you? We're looking for Josh's best friend.
That's me.
Come on in.
Can I offer you gentlemen some beers? Thank you, we're fine.
You sure? It's no trouble at all.
If you're looking for Josh, he's on his way over here right now, so I'm afraid Josh won't be coming over to hang out tonight.
Why not? He got a girlfriend.
I-I-I-I-I-I just I don't understand.
How could this have happened? He was walking alone through a party late at night.
Visibility was low.
A woman named Kelly heard him talking "House of Cards.
" And she said she also liked watching "House of Cards.
" No.
They hooked up that night.
If it's any consolation, it was over pretty quick.
Anyway, they're a thing now.
So so so how how long until he can hang out again? Son, it's not that simple.
This new girlfriend of his, she's really hot.
It's like when you first see her, it's like, "Whoa, she's hot!" He's gonna want to be with her 24/7.
Doctors say he may never hang again.
You're wrong.
Josh is a fighter, okay? I'm his best friend! He's gonna hang out with me again! Son, you have our deepest sympathies.
What? No! You guys want to watch the "Blade" trilogy? It's already downloaded.
Actually, we just watched that, like, two weeks ago.
It's really fun, but skip the third one.
Really? Trailer's great, but don't let that fool you.
Okay.
See, I told you it wouldn't be too spicy.
You were right.
She was very worried that it would be too spicy.
But I told you.
Who knows you, huh? - You do.
- Know the answer? Yeah, it's me.
Mike, it was so nice meeting you.
I got to go.
- No! - Yeah.
- I'm so sad when you leave.
- I know.
I know.
I'm sad when she leaves.
- Bye.
- Bye.
Bye.
I I'll tell you, I'm smitten.
I can tell.
Tonight, we're gonna make a salade nicoise, which apparently is a salad that you, like, eat for dinner.
No, no, no, you can't tonight.
We got plans.
What, what plans? We were gonna get high and talk onto the fan.
I remember we said that would be a funny thing to do, but they weren't, like, definite plans.
I mean, it wasn't a definite plan, but Exactly.
Isn't she amazing? But it was See ya! We talked about mm.
Great news, bro.
Crazy Wings paid off their health fines, which means they can legally serve food again, and guys' night is back.
- Yeah, cool, man.
- - So you'll be there Friday? - - Yeah, sure.
- - So this is a plan, right? - - A definite plan.
- - Yeah, it's a definite plan.
- - Awesome! - - Okay, great.
I'll see you there.
- Wings are getting cold.
We wait for Josh.
Ha, it's him.
"Hey, man, sorry.
"Feeling kind of beat.
Gonna stay in and hang with Kel.
" Goddamn it, man! Don't you guys see what's happening here? First, he cuts our hours.
Next thing you know, we're part-time.
Then whoops, there goes guys' night.
Whoops, there goes the email chain.
I don't know about you sons of bitches, but I am not gonna take this lying down.
Look, we're all here for the same reason, right? Since Josh got this new girlfriend, we have all been feeling squeezed.
But if we want a strong negotiation, we need to go to him with specific demands, okay? Uh, Liz, you go first.
I would like my brother Josh to accompany me to Nana's house so that I have someone to nudge when she says all that racist stuff.
Good, okay.
Uh, Tom.
I think it would be nice if Josh took a few minutes every now and again to help me with that Macintosh.
Just when it does that spinning ball thing, you know? 'Cause every time I try and do anything you know, Hotmail, my "Tetris" I keep getting that darn ball.
Have you used have you seen this thing? More computer help.
We got it, Tom.
Swirly rainbow ball.
100%.
Thank you.
Is that everything? Not by a long shot.
I've been working as Josh's mom for 28 years, and I want him to honor our original agreement.
I want to feed him every four hours and give him a bath before bedtime.
I want to wash his tushy and his dinky and his bobos! - Okay, enough.
- Whoa, whoa, whoa! Okay.
I want to wash them! Uh, look We might not get all of our demands.
But, God damn it, I'll try.
And finally, most importantly, my personal demands.
I am willing to go from 40 hours of "Call of Duty" a week down to 35.
When we go out to the bars, we don't have to get completely shit-housed, but we do have to get hammered.
Lastly and this one, I simply cannot budge on we need to smoke weed every day.
Wow, okay.
I mean, Michael, you are living in a dream world.
The landscape is changing.
The reality is, I have a girlfriend, and I I quite enjoy her company.
So here's what we're prepared to offer.
Wings once a week.
Wings once a week.
And? And we think that's a very fair and generous offer.
It's interesting.
Yeah, yeah, allow me to counter.
How about you take that offer and you shove it up your girlfriend-loving ass? Okay, I think we've had just about enough of this.
Yes, um you just lost wings.
You just lost wings.
Yeah, no, enough! We got it! You guys [Bleep.]
that up! You [Bleep.]
it up for me! - Oh! - Mm! Oh, you want to watch another episode? - Do you? Yes.
- Yeah.
I got nowhere to be.
More hangout! More hangout! More hangout! What is that? That is that is that is nothing.
Uh, just stay put one second.
Okay.
I'll be right back.
More hangouts! More hangouts! Wait, look! All right, hi, everyone.
Sorry, I just wanted to give everyone an update.
So Kelly and are inside watching "Mr.
Robot," and that's not gonna change, but if you want to join us, on our terms, there's a spot for all of you on the couch.
No way, man.
We're not gonna cave, okay? It it's not a hangout if Kelly's there.
It's a couples thing.
Please.
Come on, man.
I'm your best friend.
I'm sorry, Mike.
I have to say, I am a little curious to meet the famous Kelly.
Maybe I'll just pop in for a quick look.
What? No! Tom! Dude, I got to use the bathroom.
Do not cross the picket line! Come on! No, hey! Guys, get back here now.
Guys! Sorry, man.
It's over.
Some battles, you just can't win.
So what are you up to this weekend? You and Mike gonna get into some trouble? Well, well uh, Mike and I aren't really hanging out that much lately.
Oh, I'm sorry.
You know, it's okay, 'cause it means that I get that much more time to hang out with you.
What should we do this weekend? We can yoga, flea markets I have that thing this weekend, remember? Uh-uh, no.
What what thing? I'm going to the cabin with my high school friends.
I thought I told you.
Yeah, yeah, no, that's cool.
I'll figure something else to do.
I just tacos.
Tacos for one.
It would it would be really boring for you, but I guess if you wanted to come Nnnnnnnnnn! Are you serious? I would love to! All right, I'll start packing now.
Have you seen my trunks? Not don't answer that.
Half the fun is finding.
Hey, guys! - Hey! - Hey! The Kelster! Guys, this is my boyfriend, Josh.
Um, the Joshster.
It could be a thing.
It could be.
You know what? We should shotgun some beers! Are sure it's cool for me to be here? - You're gonna fit right in.
- All right.
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
This place has some memories, man.
Yeah, like when Spencer ate too much pizza and blew chunks in the hot tub.
More cheese, please! Will I ever live that down? What is that? What is that? Oh, it's stupid.
It's just an inside joke.
You kind of had to be there.
My friends and I, we have inside jokes too.
That was also the summer Everything changed.
And we were forever linked.
Sorry, why why? Why why are you forever linked? Again, it's so stupid.
But there was this one time after prom we were all driving to this very cabin, and things got a little out of hand, and we accidentally ran over a lumberjack.
We buried him in the woods, but then he was resurrected by the devil.
I guess you kind of had to be there.
No no, I I get it completely.
Wow, look at this, a puzzle! All right, now we're in business.
Guys, look at this.
Are we doing the puzzle or not? The lumberjack is back! - We killed him.
- I'm so scared.
We're all gonna die.
We're all gonna die.
Oh, sorry, man.
I meant we were all gonna die.
Just us.
Oh, I get it.
The Blade had returned a second time and fallen right into my trap.
Some Blades, it seems, are not so sharp.
Damn it.
Who are you? I'm Kelly's boyfriend.
I just kind of tagged along.
Oh.
Hey, you.
Oh, hi, hi.
How how's the lumberjack thing going? Well, Jamal's dead, so that was pretty intense.
Are you having fun? Yeah! Yeah, I guess.
Hey, what's wrong? It's just you and your friends have, like, a secret history that I'm not a part of, with the nicknames and the undead lumberjack.
I just feel like maybe we haven't gotten the chance to hang out that much.
Okay, well, what do you want to do? You you can help me with this puzzle.
Sure.
All right, good.
So I've been trying to tackle the clouds Which is actually tricky business, because they look a lot like the pond and also just white stuff.
- Get the axe! - I got it! Oh, hey, here.
Let me pick your brain.
Does this look like a part of a bird or a piece of a pussy willow to you? Oh, oh.
Oh! Hey, hey, Kel? I'm gonna try and lure him! Bird, pussy willow? - Spencer, no! - I don't know, a bird? You didn't even look.
Oh I didn't come on.
I didn't come all this way to do stupid puzzle.
You think this puzzle's stupid? There's so much blood! So what would you like to do? - It's everywhere! - Oh, my God! Uh I want to hang out with my friends.
I just think it's bullshit that you invited me all the way up here just to ignore me.
I didn't invite you.
You invited yourself.
Yes, because I've alienated Mike and all my friends so I could hang out with you more.
I never asked you to do that.
And, honestly, I think it's weird that you stopped hanging out with your friends.
Huh, you want to know what I think is weird? That you guys still come to a cabin that you know for a fact is haunted by an undead lumberjack! The fire's making him stronger! Run! Run! I'm I'm sorry, Josh.
I don't think I can do this anymore.
No! Who would've guessed that Blade would thrice return and thrice would fall right into my What's up? It's Mike.
Hey, hey, it's Josh.
So yeah.
I'm in your hood, so let me know if you want to hang out.
Cool, bye.
Josh.
Crazy Wings! Where's Kelly at? I thought you guys were pretty much hanging full-time.
Uh, yeah, that it didn't really work out.
Uh, I tried to hang out with her friends, but it just made me realize that I've much rather be hanging out with you.
So let's finish the "Blade" trilogy.
I finished it a while ago.
Oh, cool, all right, we can watch something else.
Look, Josh.
I'm sorry your relationship ended, but we can't just go back to the way we were.
Could we just hang out? Is dinner ready? Not yet, sweetheart.
Why don't you go set the table? Who's that? Don't you recognize her? The dark eyes, the nervous way she carries herself? She's our daughter, Josh.
How? How did this happen? How do you think it happened? We accidentally jizzed into the same toilet, and then it got struck by lightning.
And that resulted in a child? It is so easy for you to show up here asking questions now that it's convenient for you.
Well, I want you to know that we are doing just fine without you.
Mike Thank you for stopping by.
I appreciate the wings.
Dad, are are you okay? Yeah, I'm fine, Sophie.
Just I got something in my eye.
He told me you were dead.
No, I'm not dead I'm very much alive.
And I I would like to be Mike's friend again.
I think that's bullshit.
You you told her I was dead? It's easier than telling her the truth: that you abandoned us.
Ugh.
Okay, I messed up, but I can I can fix this.
I can be better.
I don't know.
Josh.
I just I don't know.
How about I take Sophie for a nice day tomorrow? If you're gonna do this, you better do it right, 'cause I will be damned if I let you disappoint us again.
You got it.
Do you like your sandwich? I think it sucks.
Right.
Would you maybe want to eat something else, like dessert? We can get dessert, like let's get one hot fudge sundae with extra cherries, please.
That's for you.
Maraschino cherries aren't even legally food.
Yeah.
So you like to draw.
I guess.
Would it be cool if I took a little peak or Whatever.
It's stupid anyway.
You did that? These are amazing.
I You wow.
Wow! I think the dragon's my favorite.
I just started drawing dragons.
Oh, yeah, so why don't you tell me, who's who's this? Her name's Malizar.
She shoots fire out of her snout.
Hmm.
I bet sometimes you feel like shooting fire.
Do you want to see some Elven Warriors? I would love to.
Incredible.
Even more incredible.
Hey, there they are! How was your day? It wasn't lame.
Whoa! Big compliment from the Soph.
Um, well, I should probably get going.
Are you staying for dinner? I well, it's up to Mike.
Why don't you go wash up, sweetheart? Mike, I know I missed a lot: the ending of the "Blade" trilogy, the birth of our daughter.
I just want to make up for lost time, man.
I will you give me one more shot? Will you be my best friend again? Sophie! Yeah? Set another place at the table.
I was just about to order wings.
You got everything, right, sweetie? Your laptop, your pencils, your erasers.
Oh, and those boots you love.
Did you remember the boots? Yes, I have everything.
I'm really glad you guys are friends again.
It's pretty cool.
College already.
I can't believe it.
I know.
Seems like only yesterday she was crawling out of that toilet.
Yeah.
