Ken Park Page #3

Synopsis: Ken Park focuses on several teenagers and their tormented home lives. Shawn seems to be the most conventional. Tate is brimming with psychotic rage; Claude is habitually harassed by his brutish father and coddled, rather uncomfortably, by his enormously pregnant mother. Peaches looks after her devoutly religious father, but yearns for freedom. They're all rather tight, or so they claim. But they spend precious little time together and none of them seems to know much about one another's family lives. This bizarre dichotomy underscores their alienation # the result of suburban ennui, a teenager's inherent sense of melodrama, and the disturbing nature of their home environments.

It went pretty well. I only had

to get the two top wisdom teeth out.

Did it hurt?

A little after.

They shot me up with painkillers.

Can I see?

Open your mouth.

Open up your mouth.

Open it up.

You don't have to close your eyes,

just open your mouth.

They did a good job, huh?

Can hardly see the scars.

Popi,

that reminds me when you had that

point hanging from your tongue.

That little thing

that looked like...

the end of my tongue,

it looked like a serpent's tongue.

It had like apitchfork

at the end of it.

I was eating once

and I bit the end of it.

-Looked like that guy from Kiss.

-Gene Simmons.

I remember the guy who cut it off.

I told him not to use

any anesthetics.

I'm allergic to dope.

Did it hurt?

Of course it hurt!

I didn't use any anesthetic,

did you hear that part?

What do you have a problem

with that?

I'm just teasing.

You like his hair?

I used to have long hair like that.

Peaches' mother

used to love my hair.

She used to play with it

all the time.

Hold on a second,

I gotta show you something.

-Popi, you brought the album out!

-I got something here.

Look who we have here.

No.

That's Peaches

when she was in second grade.

I look fat in that picture!

Look at her, that was like

her first little boyfriend.

She wanted to be a tap dancer.

That's Peaches' mom.

She's beautiful.

I visit her every day.

God bless her soul.

You see?

I had long hair just like you.

You guys were a beautiful couple.

Thank you.

Yeah, we fell in love.

Watch out that Peaches

doesn't fall in love with you.

Takes.

-How many points?

-Six, seven points.

You have a milk 'stache.

-ls it off?

-Yes.

Your turn, Tate.

That's 23 points.

Good one.

Whiplash.

It's your go.

I'm going.

I'm just thinking.

See anything?

Maybe you need new letters.

-No, I've got one.

-S...

i...

p...

i...

Sipi?

That's not aword.

What's a sipi?

Sipi is part of the body.

Really? It's apart of the body!

What part of the body is it then?

Below the hip.

Challenge!

-That's not aword!

-lt's below the hips.

-We'll see.

-You challenge every word...

I think sipi is aword,

I think it is.

Well, it's not in here.

You're a liar. Because I see sip

and then I see sepia.

But there is no sipi.

You're a liar.

I am not a liar.

I know it's aword.

-He's not a liar.

-Oh really,

-then how come it isn't in here?

-I don't know.

Maybe they don't use it anymore.

It's medical. Maybe an old word.

You know what, this is bullshit!

And you are technically disqualified

for lying to me.

Tate.

That's it, I quit!

You can't quit,

you're disqualified.

Where are you going?

Don't go away, congratulate me!

You know what, Gramps,

you're a bullshit artist.
