Cannot believe I trusted you! I explicitly told you, do not touch the drone!

Everything you like is now canceled.

[takes his phone out of his pocket as it rings]
Guys, it's my dad. [answers the phone] Hey, Dad.
Mr. Newman
Hey, buddy. I got on the early flight, so I'll be home in 15 minutes.
15 minutes from now or 15 minutes from later?
Mr. Newman
Ha ha, funny guy. I'll see you soon.
Maybe he won't notice the drone's gone.
He'll notice. He's very observant. That's why my mom fell in love with him.
The drone has to be home before your dad.
I know.
Just the drone. Not you. Just the drone.
[upset after his father angrily hangs up for destroying the house with the drone]
My dad says I'm grounded. Now I'm never gonna be able to kiss Brixlee.
It's okay, Max. There'll be other parties.
Lucas, you don't get it.
He's right, Lucas. This party could change our lives, and you don't even care. It's not cool at all.
Yeah, you know what's not cool?
What the **** does that mean?
Go sip a beer, Sippy Cup.
I love beer, so yes, I will. And you may think you're so mature, but the truth is you don't have pubes, and I have six.
You say you have pubes, but you also say you drink beer, and I know you don't.
Stop arguing!
Just admit you skipped the audition because you thought it wasn't cool even though your voice is a **** gift. And you always talk a big game, and you never back it up. Like on the freeway.
Oh, sorry. I didn't want to cross 12 lanes of traffic so you can kiss some skank.
Oh, shit.
She's not a skank, she's the love of my life! You take that back!
[The two start to fight]
Hey, no karate! Stop fighting! [stops the fighting and starts breaking down on the verge of tears; to Thor] You should never call a woman a skank! You should never call a woman anything! [turns to Max] And you… You made us ditch school, run around with drugs, and lock a cop in a convenience store with what I now suspect is a dildo! [notices an old white-bearded man laughing at them nearby] WHAT THE **** ARE YOU LOOKING AT, GANDALF?! [the old man leaves]
[voice breaking; tearfully]
You guys don't understand shit. I have hormones flowing through my body making me do crazy things! Do you even know what it feels like to want to rub up against a tree all the time?
You think you're better than us.
Not better, just more mature. I'm into romance and grown-up shit, and you guys are still into little kid stuff. I don't even know why we're still friends.
Mr. Newman
[The three boys go their separate ways, being broken up, and heading to their homes; At the Newman residence… Max sits on the sofa as his parents scold and punish him while taking the full blame, preventing his friends from getting into trouble]
Everything you like is now canceled. Birthdays are canceled. Holidays are canceled. Summer's canceled.
Mrs. Newman
Winter is coming.
I'm sorry, Daddy.
Mr. Newman
No, no, no. You are no longer allowed to call me Daddy. Call me Andrew or Mr. Newman or Warden. Underneath that cherubic face, the devil lives inside you. I will always love you because you are my son, but I no longer like you.
[Thor's house… Thor is playing his keyboard when his mother enters his room after getting a call from Mrs. Newman] Thor's Mom: Thorny. I just got off the phone with Max's mom. Did you know he skipped school and biked to the mall by himself?
He said that?
Thor's Mom: He did. Promise me you'll never do something as stupid as that, okay?
I promise. [as his mother leaves his room, he looks away, realizing that Max prevented him and Lucas from getting into trouble]
[Lucas' house… In the living room, Lucas tells his parents about everything that happened]
And then we ran across the highway, my arm got ripped out, and a fake woman shot out of a car. But we still got the drugs. Then we traded the drone for it, and Max destroyed his house with it. But it was only because he wanted to marry Brixlee, and now he can't because he's grounded for life. And we got into a huge fight, and the Bean Bag Boys are broken up, and… Am I in trouble?
