but we get a decent crowd

on the weekends.

Yeah?

Okay, yeah.

[guitar]

Wow. Look at this.

And I cleaned out the fridge,

and I fixed the sink.

And check it out.

Um, I'll fix that later.

So how was your day?

Oh, okay, well,

after church,

we had a girls' lunch

at The Cheesecake Factory.

I got the salmon,

which they say is a diet item,

but the portions

are just ginormous.

Here. You can have it.

And, um, let's see,

Donna had the roast chicken,

which I thought

was a little dry.

And Sue also had the salmon.

Wow, Mom, what did everyone

have to drink?

I think everyone

had iced tea, but, uh...

Never mind.

Anyway, Sue Cunningham

sends her regards.

- Who?

- Mitchell Cunningham's mom.

You know, from high school.

- Mitch the B*tch?

- Rebecca!

Ew!

I can still picture him

threatening freshmen

from the front seat

of his Jeep Wrangler.

Well, he's turned into

a lovely young man.

Maybe we can all

have dinner sometime.

- Yeah, that's not gonna happen.

- Maybe you'll change your mind.

Oh, oh, oh, I almost forgot.

They have a sale at Aerosoles,

and I like their comfort line,

so I got myself a pair,

40% off.

- That's great, Mom.

- Do you want some money?

There was a cute one...

Thank you for the food.

I'm starving.

I'm going to go eat this

in my room, if you don't mind.

[guitar]

Hey, you sure you don't want

a mic or like a makeshift stage?

I'll put up some boxes.

Not if it's further

from the bar.

How about this crowd, huh?

[laughs]

Yeah.

What you got going on

down there?

- Hey, Gene.

- Hi.

Listen up, folks, we got

some music for you tonight.

[Gene groans]

Be nice.

That's Gene.

He eats most of his meals here,

and he's usually drunk by 5:30.

Nice.

Nice. So you want a drink?

Ah, yes, please.

Something that'll make this

feel less like this.

- Whiskey.

- Yeah.

Uh, hey, everyone, I'm Becks.

I'm really good friends

with Dave over here.

Actually, Dave was the first guy

I ever slept with

and the last.

Anyway, it had nothing

to do with Dave.

I'm sure he's

a fantastic lay now.

I am.

But sometimes you just

gotta taste the sausage

before you realize

you're a vegan.

This is going really well,

isn't it?

Oh, you are killing it.

Uh, Gene,

you look like you're the only

person paying attention,

so this song is for you.

Your tattoo on my pillow

Your footsteps hold the beat

A scarlet letter sidewalk

A heartbreak on repeat

But she's going home

She's going home

She's leaving

Hear the traffic

through the window

And two strangers

on the street

A scarlet letter sidewalk

A heartbreak on repeat

But she's going home

She's going home

She's leaving

She's leaving
