What the hell kind of self-destructive

behavior is that?

I mean, who the hell quits drinking

in the last chapter?

Maybe I do, Saul.

Or maybe I'm just better than you

at making sh*t up, hmm?

Write your own f***ing books.

What are you doing?

You said I could interview you.

- About your books.

- No, I didn't.

I said "maybe." But I meant "no."

Saul?

You have to ask someone if you're

gonna make a documentary about them.

- Yes.

- Hey, Saul.

- Saul? Saul?

- One. Two.

One, two, three, four.

Yeah.

All right. Here we go.

We go, one, two, three and four.

That's perfect.

Step high. Chins up.

Here we go. Again, we go high,

high, low and low.

And one last time. Make it count.

Leave 'em wanting more.

Yes! You guys were awesome.

- Hey, Chad, this is Olivia.

- Hi, Olivia.

Hi, Chad.

Joey, I'm gonna go get my bathing suit.

Bye-bye.

- Will you take us swimming?

- I can't swim.

You really don't swim?

No.

Just seems wrong.

Come on, Chad, live a little.

It's just water. Please?

Okay, but not too far, okay?

Whoa. Is that a real gun?

Yeah, it's real.

- Why do you have it?

- I always carry a gun.

Can I hold it?

- Chad's going swimming with us.

- Awesome.

Come on, come on.

Can we stop, please? I want to stop.

I want to stop, please. Can we stop?

No.

Stop. Stop, please, stop! Stop! Stop!

Joey, Joey, what's going on? Huh?

We were just swimming and he

started freaking out. He hurt me.

- He hurt you? How did he hurt you?

- He didn't mean to. We scared him.

I was scared.

All right, you know what?

That's enough swimming for today. Joey.

- But, Mom....

- No, you're done, you're done. Honey...

He lurks. He's always lurking.

Who knows what's going on

in that mind of his?

- He started filming me today.

- Yes, well, he's filming everybody, Saul.

Yes, but he's making a documentary

about me, his favorite writer.

I think he's some sort of a lunatic fan.

Where did Jay meet this guy?

I don't know, but I just...

I don't fully trust him with the kids.

Okay. Well, then, he's got to go.

Okay.

Okay.

Look at us, co-parenting.

- So who's gonna tell him?

- I'll tell him.

I'll tell him.

Hey, Chad.

- I've upset you.

- No.

It's just that it's not gonna work out.

The truth is we weren't expecting

another person this weekend.

I understand.

Do you?

- Yes.

- I appreciate that.

You've all been really nice to me.

I wish I could pay it back.

Bye, Chad.

- Where's Chad going?

- He had to leave, honey.

But why?

Well...

people are like gardens.

Gardens and flowers want to blossom

but weeds overpower everything

and flowers learn to tolerate weeds

but if they can't...

the weeds need to be pulled

to save the garden.
