And then I got in the car to come here,
and I'm putting on my seat belt, and I hear my shoulder pop.
I mean, I hear my body making bad noises all day.
- Well, you're getting older. - Yeah. I'm getting older.
It's got me thinking that, um...
I don't know, when I'm on my death bed and someone is deciding to pull the plug,
I want it to be my kid, not my pool guy, you know?
Not that I have a pool, but...
"My kid."
Did you notice that you just said "my kid"?
Well, yeah, I mean, I...
I've been thinking lately that maybe I want to start a family.
What exactly is going on between you and Mickey right now?
- How is it? - Great.
I mean...
obviously things went bad the first time around, but...
I don't know. Feels different this time.
I like hearing this. It's what I've been drilling here.
You deserve to be happy.
You... you need to feel entitled to your own happiness.
Yeah.
No, definitely. I'm...
I am entitled to be in a relationship with Mickey.
I mean, that's what I want.
I can't fuck this up again.
Okay. Well, that's your time.
- And I'm gonna see you next week, okay? - Okay.
Just a little FYI.
I'm having this mindfulness retreat at Esalen next month.
No pressure, but if you and Mickey felt that it would be, uh,
valuable to you two...
I'll run it by her.
Uh, the meals are included in the price.
We need to change the music on this show.
I mean, every time we do a serious moment, they play violins.
It makes me want to claw my fucking ears off.
Okay, Mickey. Can I just do this?
Whoo! I just talked to Business Affairs
and Stella's deal is closed.
So, she is officially part of the Gravity Subzero family.
Wow! That's...
Wow, that's cool.
You made our asses look good.
That's 'cause I'm hot shit.
Well, your hot shit came out of our lame asses.
I just wanted to give you the good news.
And, so, later, just swing by my office, okay? Yes!
Well...
congrats, Mickey.
Thanks. I know you don't mean that, but, whatever.
No, I do. Seriously.
Bravo.
Thank you. I, uh, appreciate that. Um...
That's... that's nice.
It's funny, huh?
Sometimes it's hard for us to accept a compliment, right?
I'm wired the same way, too.
Yeah, I don't know. It's hard to accept a pat on the back at work,
when you're shitting the bed in the rest of your life.
Oh.
What's wrong? Something up?
- Oh, like I would ever tell you. - Oh, come on.
Look, I know that we used to clash, but...
remember how we used to get along?
You know, I'd really things to go back to being like that.
Supportive, kind.
You know, really... really there for each other.
Okay, um...
Well, Gus went out of town for work, and it was really hard.
And then I started seeing an ex...
and then he got super clingy,
and now, Gus is back in town and I don't know what to do.
Wow. That's a... a lot to unpack there. Hmm?
Yeah.
So, what do you think? Do you have any advice?
Oh, I don't really have any advice.
I don't know what I could give.
You're a fucking nightmare.
- Excuse me? - I'm sorry, no.
I didn't mean it to come out that way.
- Uh, just, please go. - Yeah.
But, hey. Maybe it's a good thing that we said it out loud.
You said it.
Yeah. But... now it's out there.
So, you can address it.
Excuse me, I'm gonna go get a donut.
But seriously, I still want you to talk to me if you...
Right.
Hey, everybody listen up!
Cruikshank's back, motherfucker!
Whoo!
Hey!
- All right, hey, guys. Oh. I'll do it. - Gus, my boy!
Put it down. Let's get a picture.
- Chris! Come on, get a picture with us. - All right, all right.
A group pic on three. One, two, three...
And four.

How are you, dude? How was working on, uh, Liberty Is Free?
- Oh, Liberty Down. - Yeah.
Yeah. It was, uh... It was okay.
You know, it's just a little tough being away from home.
- Being away from Mickey. - Ah...
Bertie said Mickey was having a hard time with it, too.
- Oh, she said that? - Yeah.
Yeah, well, I don't know. I mean, at first...
At first, it was fine.
- We were talking every day. - Uh-huh.
- It was going well. - Mmm-hmm.
And then, by the end there, we weren't, like, talking at all.
- Oh, man... - And I started...
getting the vibe of, like, "Oh, she's not into this anymore,
and she wants it to be over."
But then, last night she texted me,
and wanted to see if I wanted to hang out tomorrow, so...
- Yeah. Yeah. - Awesome.
I don't want to, like, pat myself on the back here too hard.
But those last few days in Atlanta,
you know, I just... I took a step back, and I gave her her space.
And I think that's, like, why she's texting me now, you know? It worked.
Yeah, me and Bertie were kind of like the same thing.
Like, we broke up, and I was home crying all the time.
And then I didn't call her 'cause I was gonna kill myself.
She thought that I was giving her space.
- Mmm-hmm. - So, she got back with me.
Oh, look at us, man. We are, like, killing it.
- Yeah. - Yeah.
All right, well, I'm gonna get back to this party.
You can stay here if you like. Nice and comfy.
Yeah. The coats are comfy.
Hey, Gus.
If I borrowed, like, $100 from you, I could pay you back $110 later on.
- If you were cool with that. - Oh. Yeah, maybe.
Or, you know what, I'm trying to sell my Nintendo 64, if you're interested.
- Let's talk about it later. - Okay.
- Get back to this party. Okay. - Cool.
Adiós, amigo.
- Bye-bye. See you. - You gotta drop by our place again.
We got some new speakers, and I'm serious,
you put on Houses of the Holy, right,
and it sounds like Zep's playing in your living room.
Wow.
- Well, sign me up. I... I'll be by soon. - We gotta go.
Getting out of here, too, man.
Okay, Kev, and uh, hey, now that I'm back in town, we gotta hang out.
- For sure. - Yeah, I'm gonna turn this
work friendship into a real friendship.
There's nothing you can do about it. Sorry.
It's all good. I already knew we were friends.
Ever since you started coming to the snack table
- when you didn't want somethin'. - Yeah, that's a telltale sign.
- I knew what was up. - Yeah, you knew.
- All right. Bye, buddy. - See you soon, man.
Oh, Gus. I forgot to tell you.
We saw your little sweetheart the other day.
- That's right. - You did?
- Yeah, she was out hiking with her friend. - Wait. Mickey was hiking?
- Yeah. - With what friend?
- Shaun or... - No, it was some guy.
- Was a dude. - Some guy?
- All right. Let me at him! - Hey!
- Welcome back, man. - Love you, man.
Hey, guys. Thanks for coming over.
- It was good to see you. - Great to see you. I'm glad you're back.
- I appreciate it. - See you.
- Let me know about that Nintendo 64. - Sure.
- Yeah, yeah. Okay. Bye. - Bye!
Hey!
Hey.
You look tan.
- Really? Do I? - Uh... I don't know.
Feel like that's what people say when someone comes back from a trip.
Well, then, let's just say I look super tan.
Hey.
- You want to order something? - Sure. Yeah.
So, how have you been?
Good. Good to be back. Yeah.
- How about you? How are you? - Good. Good. Yeah.
Things got, uh... pretty crazy between the two of us there.
Yeah, I know.
Time apart can really, uh, fuck up a relationship.
I mean, that's what happened to my best friends, Katy and Russell.
Who?
Oh, did I not tell you?
My best friends are Katy Perry and Russell Brand?
- No, you never mentioned that. - Yeah, yeah. They're good kids.
- How's it going? - Hey.
Can I get, um, a soy latte?
And I will take a ordinary latte.
- Ha! I got it. - Thank you.
Ah. Thanks, Mickey.
And, hey, I just want to say, you know, as far as us being apart, I...
I know I could have handled things better. I was way out of line there.
- It's fine, whatever. - No, Mickey.
I'm serious.
You're right. I am very codependent.
And it's scary for me to look at my own shit,
so I focus on yours 'cause it's easier,
and that's just super unfair to you, and...
I am sorry.
I... I appreciate that. Thank you.
Yeah. I just... I don't know, I gotta...
try my best, just look at my own shit, you know?
- Well, Al-Anon can help with that. - Hmm.
Yeah. Well, I've actually gone to a few meetings, so...
What? Really? Gus, that's amazing. I'm so proud of you.
- Ah. - Um, I'm sorry. That was condescending.
No. No, no. Not at all.
- There you go. - Hey.
Really? You've never?
I'm serious. I've never had a wet dream.
- Oh, my God. - It's weird. I know.
I don't know why.
Oh.
You can reply to that if you need to. It's cool.
- It's fine. Yeah. - You sure? Okay.
Do you have any, uh, plans today?
What are your Saturday plans?
I'm doing the laundry. I am paying my bills.
I'm going to the post office.
Just some... real exciting shit, Mickey.
Hmm. Well, maybe you could come by my place later? Like, 9:00 or 10:00?
Yeah. Sure.
I'm glad you're back. I missed you.
I missed you, too.
Hey, remember that time I went to Atlanta and we both flipped out?
Oh... such fond memories.
- You gotta taste this sauce. - What?
Taste this sauce I made. It is amazing.
Mmm. That was really hot.
Oh, sorry, should've warned you.
But it's good, right? I am killing it with sauces lately.
Yeah, it's good.
Yeah, but you taste better.
Mmm, thank you.
What's wrong? You're acting weird.
I don't think we should do this anymore.
Do what?
You and me. All of it.
It's moving...
too fast.
It's getting too serious, and I'm not ready for it.
I think we should break it off.
I guess we should.
Okay, uh, I'm gonna go.
I guess you are.
- All right, take care. - I will take care.
Are you okay? 'Cause you, like, seem okay, but, like, scary okay.
You should go now.
Okay. All right.
Is this because that guy is back in town?
The little tree sprite? The one at the Springwood? Gus?
No! This has nothing to do with him.
Yeah, that guy will... never make you happy.
But I guess you want to be unhappy.
Okay, yeah, you've got me all figured out.
- Goodbye, Dustin. - Goodbye, whore!
See? There it goes! You called me a whore again.
You are the same. This is all the same.
Bertie, I'm sorry for putting you in an awkward situation with Dustin.
That really was not fair of me.
Oh, okay. I'm not mad anymore.
I spoke to my mom about it, and she said,
"Bertie, you're judging Mickey." And my mom's right.
And who am I to judge?
I'm hooking back up with Randy again. I mean, what the fuck am I doing?
He only could pay me back 'cause he borrowed more money from his family.
He's really excited about his new job at the moment,
which is being in the background of a TV show.
He's in his 30s.
Also, he loves it
because he gets to lie on a gurney during his lunch hour.
What am I doing?
Why did I go back?
They say that you go back to painful situations
because they're comfortable and familiar.
I hear that.
Sometimes when I'm in pain, I'm like, "Hello, old friend."
Yeah. I'm very comfortable with pain. It's the happy part I'm not used to.
Right. We need to get comfortable with the happy part.
- Yeah. - Definitely.
- Do you want the rest of this yogurt? - No...
All right, then. It's goin' back in the fridge.
Hey, Bertie, Gus is coming over tonight, if you can handle that.
Oh... sure.
I mean... I definitely won't tell him about Dustin,
but I should probably tell you, I've been told I'm a terrible liar.
I mean, I don't think so. I think I'm quite convincing,
but people have told me I'm really very bad at it.
Well, I ended things with Dustin today,
- if that makes it any easier. - Really?
How did that go down?
You know how some guys when they're angry are like, tick, tick... boom?
Dustin's like tick, boom!
You should've seen the look in his eye. I mean...
I didn't know if I was gonna get out of there alive.
Right. Are you gonna tell Gus about any of this?
No! Jesus, that would just hurt him.
What if he asks?
If he asks me if I've slept with anybody else, then I will say yes.
I'm not gonna lie.
But I wasn't really breaking the rules or whatever.
Huh. Okay.
- Hi! - Hey, hey!
- Hi, Mickey. - Hi.
- Hey! - Hey, great to see you!
It's good to see you, too. How are you?
Gus, the craziest thing happened at work today.
You won't even believe it.
There was this man, and he ate so many Steak-umms, and he threw up everywhere,
but then he still was like, "I love 'em!" It was so stupid.
- Oh, that's, uh... - It was crazy!
- I can see how that's funny. - I'm gonna text my mom about it.
Okay. Good to see ya.
Ooh, that's a nasty little stain there.
- Oh, yeah, it's wine. - Oh.
I wasn't drinking.
Okay, I wasn't saying anything.
No, it was Bertie. She had a full glass of wine
and stubbed her toe on the coffee table and it just spilled.
It's all good. I don't care.
I'm sorry that I acted so shitty when we were apart.
- I... - It's okay. Don't...
- No, I feel... - I... I was...
making you that way. It's fine.
I think it's, like I said, I'm really bad with separation, and...
it made me act out and I'm...
I'm sorry. I think I'm...
way more into you than I even know.
Aw.
Well, me, too.
I mean, I'm into you, not me.
- Or... you get it. - Hey, hey, I have a question for you.
What? What?
What do you always wanna do in bed, but you're too nervous to ask for?
Oh, uh... I don't know.
Okay, well, what have you always wanted to do,
but you've never done? 'Cause I wanna do that.
Oh, my God. That's so much pressure.
That's like one of those things I wish I had an answer for.
You in your mind imagine,
"Oh, I hope somebody asks me this question."
But I... I don't know. I don't like talking...
about sex.
I'm up for anything in the moment, Mickey.
What if I, like, put a finger up your ass?
- Uh, maybe. - Yeah?
Yeah, just don't give me a heads-up beforehand.
It's like, I don't wanna know the end of a movie before it happens.
May I feel free to make a bold choice?
- Yes. - Okay.
Make a bold choice.
Good morning.
Sounds like my phone's blowing up. Can you hand it to me?
Okay.
Hey.
Gus-Gus, let's get out of here.
Really? We just woke up.
I know, but I'm feelin' antsy.
Let's get out of here. Let's do something fun.
Mmm.
- Look at you. - What are you doing?
- I want to take your picture. - No.
- What? - Morning photos are really nasty.
- Are you serious? - Yeah.
Morning photos are the best.
You got messed up hair, little puffy eyes. People are at their cutest in the morning.
- I'm serious. - I love it. What?
Let's go do something. What do you wanna do?
You know what I always thought could be fun?
Uh, at the park they have, uh... They have paddleboating.
Perfect. Yeah, let's do it.
- You wanna paddleboat? - Mmm-hmm.
Okay.
Um...
- I gotta piss first. - Okay.
- Quick piss.
Come on, Gus. I'm serious.
Okay, okay.
Oh, fuck.
I thought you weren't a morning person either.
That's why I like you.
But you're... Okay, okay.
Oh, my God. Oh, my God.
All right. Initiating paddleboat.
Five, four...
three, two...
Fun?
- Hey. - Oh, hey, Dustin. How are you?
- I'm well. How are you? - I'm good.
- Oh, do... Come in! - Thanks.
- Uh, is Mickey here? - Uh, no.
No. She... she stepped out.
Okay. Do you know where she went? Is she coming back soon?
No.
I don't know. She didn't say.
Don't know.
Okay. Just, uh, tell her I dropped by?
Or, you know, don't worry about it.
You know what? Let her know.
- Okay. I'll give her the message. - Okay.
- Uh, also, I think I left a jacket here? - Oh, I haven't seen one.
What does it look like?
Uh, it's like a letterman's jacket type thing.
- Cool. - I may have left it in Mickey's room.
Would you mind checking?
I would go in there, I just don't wanna root around
in her stuff when she's not here.
Oh, okay, sure. I'll go have a look.
Thank you.
What color is it?
Uh, it's black and gold.
That sounds nice.
Sorry, Dustin, I've looked everywhere.
- There's no sign of it. Sorry. - No sign of it?
Okay, no worries. I'll keep looking for it.
It'll turn up somewhere. I will, uh, see you around.
- Okay. - Thanks again.
Weird.
So, yeah, I guess, like, a few years ago, they drained this lake,
and everybody was expecting to find all these dead bodies.
But then when they did it, there were no dead bodies,
and everybody was weirdly disappointed.
Glad you're back.
Aw. I'm glad I'm back, too.
It feels good.
You know what's cool?
We both have the names of Disney mice, right?
'Cause I'm Gus-Gus from Cinderella,
you're Mickey, as in the classic mouse.
- Mickey Mouse, yeah. - Yeah.
You like being reminded of that
- I'm sure, right? - Mmm-hmm.
Oh, cool.
Uh, you know what? Can we get some broccoli?
'Cause I really, um...
I'm just feeling like I need more broccoli.
And I also really have to go to the bathroom,
so maybe you can get the broccoli,
- and I'll meet you... - Are you okay?
- Yeah. - You seem jumpy.
Ugh, when I gotta pee I'm... Um...
Ask a lot of questions, make sure you don't get, uh, ripped off, okay?
Fresh strawberries! Papayas! Oranges!
Lemon! Grapefruit! We got melons!
- Pineapple? - Sorry, hi.
Oh.
Gus! Gus, hi.
Hey, how's it going?
Hey, I got your broccoli.
I haggled him down to $1,000. I think that's fair, right?
Yeah, you want to get out of here?
I'm having a good time. You want to check out a few more booths
- and then maybe head home? - Uh...
Yeah, um, how about I get you a massage?
- I don't know. I don't need it. - Come on!
You got me broccoli. I'll get you a massage.
- Okay. - Yeah, I'm getting that for you.
- What? Wow. Thanks. - Mmm-hmm. Yeah.
That actually would be amazing right now.
Hey!
- Hey, would you like some strawberries? - Uh, no. No, thank you.
You're a little tense in here.
Yeah, I get really tense in my neck.
- Wow. - Yeah.
Do you work out a lot?
- No. - Really?
- Construction work? - You flatter me.
Pressure point for all...
Hey. Okay, uh, you ready to go?
- Here you go. - Huh?
We just started.
- It's hot. Feels like I'm gonna pass out. - Yeah, sorry. Okay.
- Thanks, so much. - Mickey, this is Kent, by the way.
What the...
No!
- Ooh. - Oh, my God.
It feels so good to be back inside.
Sorry I was acting so weird back there.
When I'm out in the sun for too long, it kinda fries my brain.
Oh, totally understand. It's all good.
You don't have to convince me
that the indoors are always better than the outdoors.
You know... I'm gonna get a soda from the vending machine.
- You want anything? - Yeah, anything. Surprise me.
All right, I will BRB.
That's how the cool kids say "be right back."
Excuse me, do you know Gus Cruikshank?
Hey, uh, do you know my buddy Gus Cruikshank?
- Who? - Yeah.
Do you guys know Gus Cruikshank by any chance?
All I'm saying is, you could've given us a bigger heads up on this gray paint.
That's, like, your one job on the committee council.
We put fliers announcing the change in everyone's mailbox.
Well, I'm sorry, but I didn't get one, and I'm not okay with the change.
- Gray is sad. - Gray is sophisticated, elegant and cool.
Excuse me, either of you know Gus Cruikshank?
- Yeah, he's my buddy. - Great.
We were just at the farmers market with Mickey.
I know Mickey, too. Great girl!
- Yeah. My phone died. - Huh.
And I don't know where Gus' place is.
I'm pretty sure they came back here.
Oh, yeah, this happens all the time. Gus is over in Building E. Second floor.
I want to say E-232.
Two-thirty-two. Great. Thanks. Appreciate it.
No problem. Happy to help, amigo!
All right, cool your jets.
Is he here?
- Fuck, dude! - We need to talk.
No, we do not need to talk.
I'm not leaving until we talk!
Okay, all right.
Okay.
Dude, what the fuck is going on with you?
You're chasing me around a farmers market? You're stalking me?
I am doing what I didn't do last time.
I'm fighting for you.
Well, don't. I don't want you to.
Can you just please go before Gus gets back?
I wanna be here when he gets back. I want to tell him about us.
So you... you want to ruin this for me?
Yes. I want to tell him about us. And then, he's gonna leave you,
and you and I can get back to making this work, okay?
This is the story we're gonna tell our kids.
"Your mom was dating a loser, and I... I came after her.
I chased after her." All right?
This... this guy is a wimp. He's not gonna fight for you.
You want someone who is gonna fight for you!
No, Dustin, I don't. Please, I don't.
You don't know what the fuck you want, okay?
I'm being direct with you.
This fucking guy is not the answer to your problems, okay?
You need to have the courage to stay in the game with me
until we figure this out together.
Dustin... just let me go.
Maybe with Gus I can be happy.
You're gonna destroy him.
Maybe I will. Maybe.
But let me figure that out on my own, okay?
If you love me, you're gonna give me the space to do that.
Hello? Mickey?
- Mickey? - Can you...
Can you just go out there, please?
Mickey?
Hello?
- You there? - I'm coming, Gus! Sorry!
Sorry.
- Um... - Hey, what's up?
Hi, I was in the bathroom and I locked the door
'cause I didn't want anyone to be able to get in.
Oh, it's okay. I don't trust anybody around here. It's fine.
Uh, hope you like Sprite.
Oh, well, I'm... I'm more of a 7 Up girl, actually.
It's okay. They literally taste the same.
Hey, you okay?
I... I gotta tell you something.
Okay. Let's talk.
Uh, yeah, it's um... It's... it's kinda scary to say.
Look...
I know I've been coming on strong. It's just...
I think when I got back, I just got excited...
No, it's not that. Gus, it's not. It's...
I wanna be in a relationship with you.
- Okay. All right. - Yeah.
I don't wanna do any more nonexclusive bullshit.
That ends today.
I wanna really try and work on this and be in a real adult relationship.
I want that, too.
- Really? - Of course.
I'm in. Mickey, I'm in. Let's... let's fucking be a couple.
- Okay, let's... let's be a couple. - We're a couple.
- I got you. - Mmm-hmm.
