Anyone here?

H-hello?

Hello?

James charm!

Harmon?

What are you doing man?

I thought you guys

would be in here.

James charm!

We gotta go meet up with gunny.

Cool?

Jesus...

What happened last night?

I don't know, man.

Did you get in trouble?

Not yet.

I think my mom's going

to kill me though.

What about your dad?

He passed away.

What about your

parents, or whatever?

I don't have parents, man.

Heads up, man.

Jesus.

Come on.

String bean, get

one of them man.

Grab from the top, they, they,

then shuffle.

That's it, gunny?

Three each.

For free?

No.

There's a fox in me.

We dart through the night.

We circle and loop

and double-cross.

We thrive.

Woo!

What the f***.

Who steals ham?

Grabbed it.

Huh?

Grabbed it. It was in the

moment.

Hey, yo.

The other day...

I was like tripping,

out of my mind.

And there was a spider web.

It was like...

The biggest spider web you

have ever f***ing seen.

This moth flew right

in the middle of it.

So I'm watching this guy

fight and struggle, and he's

struggling like crazy.

Sure enough, a gnarly-ass

spider starts coming over,

trying to eat this

thing, and I'm like

"I have to save this guy."

I can't help him, you know?

Because I can't mess

with what's going on.

Like it's so much bigger

than me, I know that.

Struggling and struggling

this whole time.

Breaks free.

He breaks free, he's out

of the web, he's good.

But he had used up all his

strength, so all he could do

was really drift

and fall and land.

And in that split

moment, I sh*t you not...

No lie.

Frog turns up, Bam, done.

He eats that dude.

No!

It's breakfast.

And all of that meant nothing,

like, all that struggling and

fighting meant nothing.

That's horrible.

That's a horrible story.

Not, I guess, if you're a frog.

I guess it's good for the frog.

Yeah, I guess.

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait...

Is this some

chick's handwriting?

That girl val wants to meet

up to morrow, but I'm...

Yo, you either go meet up with

her or I'm gonna meet

up with her.

I gotta go anyway.

I, I think I'm wasted.

You better go find her, James.

Jesus.

Where have you been?

Out.

We've been out looking

for you all night.

Are you drunk?

Answer me!

Have you been drinking?

You're gonna lecture me?

On drinking?

Are you f***ing my mom?

James!

No. I...

Are you?

I'm gonna go now.

I'll see you tomorrow at work.

Okay.

Thank you.

Later, Gabe.

Ooh!

One of these days you're going

to wake up and realize the

world doesn't revolve

around only you.

You came!

Come here.

Hey, can I see the ring?

Do you want to try it on?

Yes.

Try it.

I keep getting dizzy.

You're getting dizzy on a bus?

Yeah.

I don't usually get...
