I know.
You took that one right? I loved it.
Hey, old man - Old man? - Hey, old man.
I can help you.
Yeah, hey, I was wondering if you knew of a breakfast/tapas place that just opened up? I'm sorry, you have more details? - We don't know it.
- Yeah.
Um, It's on Beech and Mississippi, I think.
Oh, the cool part of town.
I don't know.
We're not from here, so - Oh, welcome to Portland.
- Thank you.
Make yourselves at home.
This is your home too.
Let's see, what's a good way to get over there? - We're going to give you some really good directions.
- Okay.
I would say, uh, make a right on Gleason.
Take it down to the Morrison Bridge.
Morrison Bridge is closed.
Ah! The Morrison Bridge is closed because of construction.
- Ah, hold on - You know what? You're good at detours.
He's really good at detours.
- Ha ha hauh-huh.
- So that bridge is closed.
You want to get on that on ramp, which will not be closed.
Oh, you're on to something here.
As soon as you make a left on that, you make a right on - 32nd.
- You got it, Honey! Go through the parking lot there.
You're allowed to park in that parking lot.
Walk through there.
You know what, Bro, don't worry about it.
I'll just use my phone and map it.
If they were listening, those were some really good directions.
Wow! I mean, did we lose it? Do we not have that thing anymore? I didn't feel sexy or young or I think we are, I think we still have it.
Come on, we move and we dance.
- We do stuff.
- We bought that new rug last year.
We go out and do stuff all the time.
- Watch TV late.
- Yeah.
We love culture and we're crazy and make noise.
Go out and see music.
Remember, we saw the Allman Brothers.
- At the casino.
- Yeah, a whole concert, almost.
See this? Here, world.
Wanna see crazy? There you go.
And, and, and, we can do anything anyone else can do.
We're not-- No, we need to spice it up, huh? - We're gonna show everybody.
- We're gonna get crazy.
Go insane.
Do the crossword really quick.
What's a whistler on the range? [.]
- Hey.
- Hi.
- Selling clothes? - I am.
Okay Do you smoke a pipe? I don't know why I'm smelling a pipe on there.
I'm not going to do that one.
I clean all my clothes.
I do laundry once a week, and Oh my god.
Do you live in a banana farm? - No, I um - Ashby? I live in Southeast.
This is so funny, we were talking-- We thought these didn't exist anymore.
Like, who would wear these? But here it is.
So, that's gonna be a no on that one.
I think we'll do no on this.
And we'll do [Mouthing no.]
No on that.
I think we're gonna do no on the t-shirts.
Oh! Here we go.
Now we're talking.
This we're definitely not going to take.
Ashby, turn around.
Okay, I'm going to pull something out.
You can't laugh.
[Laughing.]
Have you seen the movie, The Net? It's a total inside joke.
- Did you see the movie, The Net? - The Neck? No, The Net, with Sandra Bullock? With Sandra Bullock, The Neck.
Anyway, that shirt reminds me of that, 'cause it's kind of about the internet.
And what were you interested in doing with this one? It's more donation.
Are you donating these or are you selling them? Whatever you don't want, I'd like to just donate, because-- Many of these clothing we're not gonna be able to take, because of the smell and some of the designs aren't sellable anymore.
Right, but a lot of places, like, if you don't-- What? [Laughing.]
You must have been so depressed when you wore these.
How great! We have to! [Laughing.]
These are hilarious.
Ah Whoa! They're so saggy.
They're not, actually, they're roomy.
Ashby [Laughing.]
Where'd you get these? I was dating this guy for a while.
He didn't like those.
He's an idiot.
These are hilarious.
Hee-hee-hee! Fifty cents, fifty cents, fifty cents.
Fifty cents All right.
That's $4.
In cash or trade? If you want to do cash, it comes out to $1.
65.
Which would you rather do? Um, I will do the cash.
- Cash? - Yeah.
All right, well, you have to clean all this up.
[.]
[Laughing.]
- Lance? - Yeah? Okay, well, I was just on Facebook, and I can't say I'm in a relationship with you if you're not even on there.
You don't even have a profile.
Who doesn't know we're together? Sid and Amy don't know we're together.
Tim, Dr.
Grossman, my dentist.
I feel like I made you up or something.
Nina Will you please join? Please? That smile All right.
Let's get this over with.
Okay, so Lance, I'm setting up your profile.
Ooh, philosophy.
What's your philosophy of life? What do you think it is? When life presents obstacles, I skip over them and jump as high as I can.
For it is when we jump that we can see the rays of the sunshine.
I would never write that.
Okay, we're gonna upload a photo.
Uh-uh.
I don't like getting my picture taken.
Why don't we do a photo shoot? (Camera clicking) Nina, I'm going to the bathroom! You have like 400 friends because of me, and you need to show me that you love me.
- I do love you.
- Will you put that on the Facebook page? No! No, I will not! Get out! Get out! Okay, Lance, I just put up a picture of myself.
You should write a comment.
- You look great.
- On the picture.
Okay, I'll do it.
Hey, that is hot-t-t-t-t-t-t-t! I thought you were one of those Brazilian chix.
Make a man blush! (Engine revving) Wha-- Ohh! Ah, Nina! [Phone buzzing.]
Nina! - Nina! - Lance, you posted on my wall.
New profile pic.
Thank you.
Nina! Nina! [.]

- We gotta go.
- Yeah? - We gotta do it.
- Yeah.
I love live music.
- I love to watch you dance.

[Bell ringing.]
Look at that thing.
Hey, old man Are you, are you lost? We're looking for this tapas place.
- Oh, the tapas place.
- The new tapas place.
That's going to be down off of Belmont and 30th.
Belmont? Lance one, we got, it's gonna be a right on Belmont, I believe we have to go.
What are you drinking? A little ice tea.
How are you guys doing there? Ha, Ice tea? What are you guys listening to classical music? [Laughing.]
Yeah, we're pretty wild, you know, we're just unpredictable and Ha, ha, yeah, we're kind of, you know We're pretty free.
We're very free yeah.

Got a couple of nice hogs, you know, a couple of choppers.
Okay.
Got a good old three-wheeler.
She's got a good old one- wheeler.
Hon, this isn't working.
Do they need help? Do you need help? Nah, we're good, we're fine.
Why would we need help? - Do you need help? - Peter! - Honey, call triple A.
- You want triple A? Ahh! - Oh my God - Easy does it.
My old lady.
Why are you guys just sitting on your porch? Might be kind of wild to see something else go on.
A little making out action.
We do this everywhere Peter! Are they trying to pick us up? I think so.
Peter! Peter! Kiss me! [Peter.]
Look at this.
I'll take you there Hey, friend Would you two like to come in for some Pinot Gris? - Yeah! - Yeah! We're spontaneous, we'll do anything.
They are cute.
- Where are you going? - I have that work dinner tonight.
I thought we were gonna watch movies tonight.
Sweetie, I told you about it last week.
I'm taking clients to Toro Bravo.
Ah, alright.
I'll just hang out and do whatever then.
You know what, please, this time, don't just watch a bunch of YouTube videos and then fall asleep with your clothes on and all the lights on in the house.
Doug That's it.
- I'm calling a sitter.
- Aw, come on! [Knocking on door.]
- Hi.
- Hi.
- You must be from the service.
- I am.
- Great, come on in.
Thank you for coming so last minute.
- Quite all right.
Doug's gonna want to drink beer tonight.
I would really prefer if he didn't have more than two.
All right.
Is he allowed to have a snack with his beer? He is, but make sure he eats something healthy, because when I'm not here he just wants to eat cereal all night.
Ah, right, yeah.
- And uh-- Oh, here is Doug.
- Hi.
He's allowed to watch TV.
He loves reality shows about logging or fishing, but if he starts just staring at the On Demand screen, - that's when it's time to turn it off.
- Okay.
'Cause what that leads to is him on IMDb and he does a lot of user comments for movies that have not come out yet.
And then it's just downhill from there.
So that's what we want to try to avoid.
But, you know what, make yourself at home.
I should be home around midnight.
- I'd like him to go down around 11:30.
- Got it.
- Okay, great.
- My name is Doug.
- I'm Ellen, I'll be helping you out tonight.
- Okay.
Okay.
I have to go.
Bye, sweetie.
Love you.
All right, bye, guys.
Have fun! - Bye.
We will.
- I don't need that much guidance.
If you want, you can camp out on the couch.
I'll do my thing.
You can do your thing-- But I'm here to help you do your thing.
The whole thing about the beers.
I'm allowed to have more than four.
