and start drinking again?

The beer's getting warmer

by the minute.

Hey, Heather,

you got anything to eat

in the big-ass bag of yours?

- Nothing.

- Nothing?

Not even some Twinkies

or something?

You see, Heather here,

she's a Twinkie junkie.

Shut up! Am not.

Let me see.

No, I just have personal items.

You know, girl things.

Great, let me see.

Johnnie, no!

What the f***?

Precious, are you okay?

I can't believe it.

You brought your

rat-f***ing dog?

I knew you wouldn't let me

bring her if I told you.

Look, the dog's here now,

okay, Johnnie?

You know what?

Scholarship here is right.

There's nothing we can do now.

Eat it, maybe.

And you wonder

why she hates you.

It's okay, baby.

I won't let the bad man

hurt you.

What about you, Johnnie?

Do cigarettes count?

How many calories

are in a cigarette?

Look, I bet Tobe and Marilyn

already found help

and are on their way back.

Got another joint?

Madame?

Merci.

This bud is gnarly.

The gnarliest.

How far do you think we've gone?

Who cares?

We're on vacation.

Yeah, life's a beach.

- What are you doing?

- He's ticklish!

No, okay, no.

You can run, but you can't hide!

Damn it.

What was that?

Cool.

"Joad."

It's a house.

Let's go tell everyone.

Whoa, whoa, wait.

I mean, who knows

who could live there?

I mean, look at that place.

No one lives there.

It's a dump.

Kind of spooky?

I think we've gone past spooky

and straight to freaky.

Come on,

let's go tell the others.

Come on.

Hey, don't make me

tickle you again.

Okay, no,

you stay right over there.

I'm coming after you!

All right already!

Hold your horses!

Vice principal Frank Cunningham.

We have a serious situation

on our hands.

Now's your chance, bro.

Hey.

Everything okay?

- Yeah, I'm fine.

- Yeah?

You just seem quiet back here.

I'm sorry.

What's wrong?

- Be honest with me.

- Okay.

If my dad didn't have

this hunting cabin,

would you guys

have wanted me along?

Adrienne, look...

Sean,

if I hadn't been your tutor

and told you about the cabin,

would I even be here?

Look, Adrienne...

I think you're beautiful.

Okay, the cabin was just

some excuse

to spend time with you.

Really? Beautiful?

Yeah. Thought so ever since

we had homeroom together.

I mean, it's like you got

this whole other gear.

First you're in the semis.

Couldn't nobody touch you.

And then you sprain your ankle

and still ran in the finals?

That's bad-ass, girl.

It's a breathing thing.

I mean, the pain

just kind of fades away

if you focus on your breath.

Yeah.

I tell you what I've been

focusing on.

Here it comes.

No, come on. Look,

don't be so quick to judge.

I was just gonna say
