- Oh, my God. That's a great plan.

Yeah.

- Isn't your dad gonna see this?

- He's a pussycat. He'll love it.

And he's got a new girlfriend now,

so he's a happy boy.

All right, man, um....

I'm gonna head out, but I will see you

tomorrow at band practice.

- All right, dude.

- All right.

Hey, you wanna go for a drive?

Um, I was just gonna go to sleep

after finishing this pair of tits.

No, eh, um, we should definitely

go for a drive.

- Yo, is something wrong, dude?

- No.

Just going for a drive.

All right, listen, man.

All this talking we've been doing...

...like, about sex and the future and, like,

the rest of our lives and all that sh*t...

...has got me feeling a little guilty.

- Why?

- Look, you're my best friend.

- You know that.

- Heh.

And so, I owe this to you.

Yeah, man. What is it?

I'm a gay dude.

What?

I'm a gay dude.

Like, I'm a gay?

Like "gay" gay?

Like, "d*cks and butts" gay?

Or like, "retarded" gay...

...like,

"Man, Nicolas Cage movies are gay"?

No, like, "I'm a dude

who's attracted to other dudes" gay.

- What? No, you're just a dude.

- No, exactly. A gay dude.

I mean, f***,

you're all out of shape and sh*t.

Oh, really?

Yeah, no, dude, I f***ing know.

Look, I'm not into curtains,

I've never watched the Tonys.

I'm never gonna wear, like,

a deep V-neck T-shirt, but I am gay.

When did you first realize this?

Like, is this a recent development?

No. F*** no.

You remember when we were kids,

6 or 7 years old...

...we used to give that guy sandwiches

through the fence at school?

Yeah, yeah.

That guy was a homeless guy.

Yeah, and I kind of had a crush on him.

- You were gay for the homeless guy?

- He was ruggedly handsome.

You wanted to f*** a hobo when

you were 7, that's what you're telling me?

That's what I'm telling you.

I wanted to feel the touch

of his dirty hobo hands.

This is crazy.

I mean, you've dated more girls

than I have.

That's more of a you problem.

You tell Em?

Did you tell her before you told me?

Yeah. Yeah.

Look, dude, she's super cool.

I don't wanna f*** up her life

with unnecessary falsehoods.

Wow, f***.

- You're a gay dude.

- Yeah.

- I'm a gay dude.

- Are you sure?

Know what? I'll think about it for

another 18 years and I'll get back to you.

- Yes, I'm sure.

- All right.

Well, sh*t, the whole brownie

thing's out the window.

- No.

- Probably wouldn't have broken up...

...with Ava without our whole big plan.

She's hot.

Yeah, and so out of your league.

Dude, have you seen her b*obs

and her stomach area?

Like, her stomach

is almost as hot as her b*obs.

Right? Can you even

wrap your brain around that?

Yeah. Yeah, I mean,
