You know, snacks and stuff.

Sh*t. Where's my phone?

Your precious phone is safe.

You can't just take it.

I want to spend some time

with you.

I don't want your phone

to get all the attention.

You'll get it back

when we get home, okay?

We close?

Mm, not quite.

Here we go.

What?

We came all this way.

What are you doing?

Do it.

Do it! Do it! Do it! Do it!

My hands are tied here.

Everybody knows

you can't refuse

the "do it, do it" chant.

Go! Go!

Stop, dad!

You can do it, dad.

You can do it.

That was awesome!

That was crazy.

Sh*t.

Did that cop see us?

What?

You're such a dick.

You totally went for it.

I'd give you up.

I'd give you up in a heartbeat.

"I'm sorry, officer.

I was just tryin'

to get to church.

This little one right here

was doing the 'do it,

do it, do it' chant."

Wow.

Welcome to my office.

Cool.

Man, I love it out here.

I wish I could just move up here

and live off the land.

Yeah.

Let's do it, huh?

- No more responsibilities, no school.

- I like school.

Come on,

nobody likes school.

All right, have a seat.

What's the first rule

of gun safety?

No drinking?

Don't shoot anybody?

Smart-asses.

Yeah, that is absolutely

the first rule:

Don't shoot anyone.

So, always keep the gun

pointed downrange,

and you keep the safety on

until you're ready to fire,

okay?

And that's this

little button right here.

See the red?

That means the safety's off,

and it's ready to fire.

So red, you're dead.

"Red, you're dead." Cool.

Okay.

Ready to give it a shot?

Yeah.

Oldest first.

Thanks.

Pull the lever there.

Yeah, and drop it in.

Okay.

Make sure it's seated.

There you go. Snap it shut.

Okay.

Just shoot it anywhere?

You gotta keep it snug.

I thought you shot yourself!

Oh, my god!

I told you

to keep it snug.

All right, well, now we know

that this isn't a toy, right?

Where you going?

You just gonna go off

and cry about it?

Guess it's my turn.

Hey, have a damn

sense of humor.

Can you just give me

a minute, please?

Hey, what's the matter

with you?

It was him.

This little guy right--

ooh-hoo-hoo!

Ohh!

You blame me for everything!

You're ganging up on me

with your cheap shots?

Okay,

that's how you wanna play?

Hey! No!

That's how you wanna play?

Wait up! No!

No, no, no, wait!

I hit him!

Winner! Winner!

Winner!

Caleb, stop!

He's soaked!

- Not funny.

- Well, we're both laughing.

We're just playing--

hey, come on.

Come on, we were

just playing around.

Yeah, sorry.

Hey.

Brad.

Want my coat?

He'll be fine.

Come on.

All right!

Brad, I hit it!

Bradley!

Come on out here!

All right! Nice shot.

Hey, can we go?

I gotta use the bathroom.

Go write your name in the snow.
