(Nana, Pop Pop

talking, faint)

Look!

There's the clock

that she told us about.

(ticking)

Do you play sports?

I don't like sports.

He used to.

What do you do?

Why are your pants

so low?

I rap.

It's a form

of modern poetry.

If you give him a topic,

he'll extemporaneously

rhyme on the subject.

His stage nom de plume

is "T-Diamond Stylus."

Go ahead.

Nana, give him anything.

Is food okay?

I like food.

Yeah.

Of course.

How about...

pineapple

upside-down cake?

Yeah.

Sure. Why not?

Okay.

(chuckles)

Mm-hmm.

Okay.

Got it.

Okay.

The girls, they like me

They think I'm sweet

like candy

One girl looked at me

like I was a Hershey... bar

Her name was Angie

And a few tall girls,

they just looked at me

blankly

So here's the thing

you gotta understand

about me

I got more rhymes

than a beehive has bees

So it didn't surprise,

confuse or make me say

"For heaven's sake"

When a Hawaiian girl

with a balance disorder said

"You remind me of a pineapple

upside-down cake"

Ho!

POP POP:

Whoa!

(both laughing)

Yes, sir!

Yeah?

BECCA (whispering):

Mom's room.

POP POP:

It's not fancy.

I call the main bed.

BECCA:

No pre-calls!

No, no, no! I got here first!

No, no, no, no, no, no, no!

Rock-paper-scissors?

Okay.

TOGETHER:

Rock, paper, scissors!

Shoot!

Do it again.

Rock, paper, scissors.

Shoot.

(chuckles)

Have a nice rest

all the way over there.

(Tyler sighs)

You guys are good kids.

This is gonna be a great week.

By the way,

there's mold in the basement.

We don't want you guys

to get sick. Yeah.

I-I got, like, no bars!

None.

BECCA:

Just keep unpacking.

No, don't--

don't look at the camera.

There we go.

This is so beautiful--

Stop looking at the ca--

Just unpack

like you normally would.

But I'm not here, okay?

Just be-- be--

(chuckles)

Be natural.

Is this natural enough?

BECCA:

You're such an idiot.

BECCA:

These are the people

in Nana and Pop Pop's life.

You have to burn them

a little.

Not too much.

Just a skosh.

NANA:

Here, chick-chick-chick.

(chickens clucking)

(Nana talking, indistinct)

So where are they now?

Outside,

by the chicken coops.

How are they?

Don't answer that.

I don't care.

Are they being nice?

Have they said anything

nasty about me?

Don't answer that.

Ugh. This is like

a divorce settlement.

They get you for one week

every 15 years,

and we try to be civil.

Mom, we talked

about this.

We made a decision. You go.

We're having a great time.

Yeah. You should go. Okay?

You won't be so grumpy

when you get back.

Oh!

(laughs)

Jacques Cousteau over here

wants to go buy swimsuits.

We're headed for the dock

in a few hours!

Hey, Miguel.
