in time, where would you go?

I'd go way, way back.

Probably to Jesus' time or something.

- Really?

- Yeah.

People have so many different

versions of the Bible.

I'd like to go back

and see what really happened.

You know what that says?

- Herman loves Jessica.

- It says Magdalena.

What time would you go to?

Nineteenth-century France.

All those painters and sh*t.

I want to hang out with Van Gogh,

tell him he's gonna be a big hit.

- You're so weird.

- I know.

You know before, what happened...

I never meant to disrespect you.

You didn't.

No?

So it was okay, what we did?

It was okay.

Cool.

So why did you get so mad at me?

You were after stupid Jessica.

I wasn't.

That's just you being crazy.

- Yeah?

- She likes me.

But I can't stand her. I swear.

Try and catch me.

Herman.

- Your titties are so big.

- Shut up.

They are.

Nearly as big as Jessica's.

Shut up!

- I missed you.

- Good.

- Did you miss me?

- No.

You're so beautiful.

- I like you so much.

- Herman.

I do.

- Feel that.

- No.

Come on.

I love you.

This thing's not gonna work.

That's the only one we have.

Sorry I'm late, To.

They thought

you weren't coming today.

Oh, no. Come here, buddy.

I'll get the leashes.

Okay.

- Don't I get a hello?

- Hello.

Gee, thanks. What's up with you?

Nothing.

Eileen told me

some things about you.

- What things?

- Just things.

And don't let them sh*t

on the Hernandez's lawn.

All right. Come on, boys.

This time take them for more

than five minutes.

Yes, To Tomas.

Yeah, we're landlords now.

It's two units.

There's ours and then this place

in the back where this old guy lives.

Yeah, the rate was good

It's a 30-year.

But it's still a shitload

of money per month.

There's a super hot cholo coming up

the back stairs wearing a wife beater.

James! James, the back door.

Hello.

- You guys got an adjustable wrench?

- A what?

An adjustable wrench

for the garbage disposal.

Oh, you live in the back with...

- Tomas.

- Tomas, right. Yeah, come on in.

So, Tomas is what?

Your grandfather?

No, he's my uncle.

That garden he planted is really

unbelievable. How old is he?

Eighty-three, four.

He's my great-great-uncle.

He's lived back there a long time?

Yeah, a real long time.

Since before I was born.

Well, how old are you?

Old enough.

- I knew it was in the truck.

- I never said it wasn't.

All right. Will this do?

Yeah, it's cool. Thanks, guys.

I'll get it back to you guys later.

- No worries.

- Oh, hey, Carlos.

We're having a housewarming party

a week from Saturday.

Do you want to come?

- What time?

- Nine, 9:
30.

I've got some things

I'm supposed to do, but we'll see.
