- Yeah.

- [Gene whistles]

- Yeah!

- [applause]

DAVE:
Come on! Come on!

Yeah!

Listen up.

This is a tip jar.

Pass it around.

Put some money in it.

Let her pay for her drinks,

God forbid.

Thanks.

Damn, girl,

you can really sing now.

Thanks, dude.

Hey, was that guy who came in,

was that Mitch Cunningham?

Yes. He's cool now.

That a**hole, he outted me

at prom, remember?

He got on stage,

he took the DJ mic

and he told everyone

I was the vale-dyke-torian.

[laughs]

Oh, yeah!

I remember that now.

And I was trying so hard to

get in your panties all night.

What the f***

is wrong with me?

I don't know.

But his mom and my mom

are now friends.

This town is way too small.

Yeah, well,

people change, okay?

You understand this concept...

- of people changing.

- [laughs]

He's mellow now, man.

He put money into this place,

so be chill.

Figures.

Mitch the B*tch

is now Mitch the Rich.

Wow. If the singing

doesn't work

you can write, like,

really mean children's books.

Holy sh*t.

There's like 35 bucks here.

Okay, Rain Man.

I'm used to getting paid

in increments of jar.

It's a sad talent.

- Hey.

- Oh, hey.

I moved those around

the other day.

I found one of you

in your habit.

- What a trip.

- Remember this?

It's when we rented

that cottage in the Ozarks.

You kids sang

the entire way there.

It was so cute

for the first 20 minutes.

You and Dad look so young.

Let me see.

Oh, that was right after

we got married.

But we weren't so young.

We were 28.

Well, I'm 34.

What does that make me?

I don't remember Dad

ever looking this healthy.

Yeah.

Look at this.

[laughs]

Ah, I must've been,

I don't know, 22?

Now that was young.

Well, you were really pretty.

For a nun.

I was pretty, period.

Is that why you cheated on Jesus

with Dad?

Maybe.

You been drinking all night?

What? It's not like that.

It's just sometimes,

you know,

these things can be

hereditary.

Mom, I'm responsible.

Okay, when it comes to drinking,

at least.

Okay.

It's late.

Go to bed soon.

[door chime]

Nope.

Can I help you?

Oh, no, thanks.

I thought vintage would be more

my price range,

but I guess

it's still H&M for me.

Can't beat a $4 belt.

You know, I actually saw you

perform the other night

at Perfectos.

Oh, right. You were there

with Mitch the...

Mitch and I went

to high school together.

You went to Maplewood?

Yeah. Let me guess.

Villa?

Mary I.

Ah, way off.

World of difference.

I'm Elyse.

- Becks.

- Hi.

- It's nice to meet you.

- You too.

Becks is an interesting name.

Is it a stage name?

Uh, no,

it's short for Rebecca.

Mary Rebecca, actually.

My sister's name

is Mary Elizabeth,

in case you're wondering
