What's up, Todd?

Todd

What's up, Scott?

You going to college, too, someday?

I'd like to, yeah. I'd go study law.

Oh, yeah? That's awesome, man. That sounds really cool. Do you have any weed?

Todd

I do.

Could I have some?

Todd

Definitely. I'll go grab it.

Cool. Thanks, Todd. [Todd walks off] **** home run, Todd.

Joy

It makes me sad to think of my little sister sitting in that sad little house, waiting for her son to be perfect.

Marjorie

I'm not.

Joy

Then you're wasting all of this. All of it's getting wasted. You're a mess.

Marjorie

You're wasted.

Joy

Mom would be so disappoin... Mom would be disappointed in you.

Marjorie

You're the one who's always wasted.

Joy

You're wasting. It's like leaving food on the table. [Chuckles derisively] Come on. Let me take you out.

Marjorie

It's so hard to meet people. I'm totally open.

Joy

No, it's... I mean, God... You're not open at all.

Marjorie

It's really hard to meet people.

Joy

You're a liar. You're not open. "Hard to meet people"?

Marjorie

I'm in the E.R. All I see is, like...

Joy

You meet... You meet a hundred people a night. People who were shot...

Marjorie

Yeah, they're shot. They're- they're, uh, they're criminals.

Joy

Stop limiting yourself.

Marjorie

Who am I gonna meet?

Joy

Stop limiting yourself.

Marjorie

But I'm at the hospital.

Joy

Yeah. They're not all criminals. You meet people at work. That's what it's...

Marjorie

Some of them are victims.

Joy

Doll...

Scott's cousin: You know, we could put you on two shifts a week, just-just, just to try it.

I don't need a job. I, uh, I got a contact at a tattoo shop. I'm- I'm hoping for an apprenticeship, so...

Joy

Then you're gonna need some money.
Scott's cousin: Yeah, some of these guys walk away with 80 bucks in tips.

Marjorie

Scott, your cousin's offering you a job. Consider it, okay?
Scott's cousin: If you're good at it, you can become a waiter.

Why are you offering me a job anyway?
Scott's cousin: Because I told your father I'd always look out for you.

How? He died suddenly in a fire. Uh, did you ask his ghost?

Joy

That's not witty, Scott.
Scott's cousin: Your dark sense of humor doesn't work for me.
Scott's uncle: I find it funny.

Joy

It's your sister's big day. Be a gentleman.
Scott's cousin: Okay, we lost a few guys in an ICE raid.

Ah, shit. Sorry.

Joy

Maybe you should work and go to college.
Scott's uncle: College is bullshit!

Joy

Oh.
Scott's uncle: You know who went to Harvard? The Unabomber. You know who went to Temple? Bill Cosby. You know who else who went to Temple? Ted Bundy. You know who went to Hofstra? Bernie Madoff. You know who went to Wharton? Donald Trump. It's all a scam.

Okay, well, maybe I shouldn't go, then.
Scott's uncle: Oh, no, you'll have the time of your life.

Spongebob Squarepants
[Scott is lying on couch watching TV and smoking]

Hello. Okay, let's see my to-do list.
Claire's friend: Yo, we're finished packing the car. You want to come out and say goodbye or...?

Oh, well, yeah, this is almost over.
Claire's friend: No, like, we're leaving.

Oh. She's leaving? [Gets up]
Claire's friend: Like, to go to college, you know?

Oh, oh, my bad.
Claire's friend: Yeah, four years, so...

[Following Claire's friend]

Oh, all right.
Claire's friend: Let's go. [Scott turns head to glance at TV] Nope, like... [Scott gets pulled out door by wrist] Go. Come on.
...

Marjorie

Uh, don't worry about me, okay? This is really hard right now. [Hugs Claire]

[Voice cracking]

You don't seem fine.

Marjorie

I'm so proud of you. I love you. Uh, okay. You're the light of my life.

Oh. Okay. [To Scott] Thanks for helping us pack the car.

I'm sorry. I didn't realize you guys were done already.

Be nice to Mom. And please respond to my texts.

I will. Don't worry about it. And, um... I-I'll come visit you at some point.

Okay. All right. [Hugs Scott] Yeah. [Walks to vehicle] I love you.

I love you, too.

Marjorie

Fly.

Hey.

Marjorie

Hey. Uh... I was thinking of finally seeing that Game of Thrones. Should I binge it?

Oh, it's a, it's a pretty violent show. You sure you could watch that?

Marjorie

I work in an emergency room.

Right, yeah. So, you could probably handle a good pillage.

Marjorie

Yeah. Okay, well, maybe I'll start watching it.

Yeah.

Marjorie

You watch it with me?

Um, well, I actually just kind of finished it, so I-I don't... It's really fresh in my mind, so I-I would probably...

Marjorie

Okay.

I can watch some of them. Uh, I don't think I can watch all of them again, but...

Marjorie

Well...

I'll see you later, then.

Marjorie

All right.
