Picasso paints, doesn't it?

See? The eyes, the nose,

and those stars over there

look like a mouth.

- What, you know who Picasso is?

- (Laughs) Yeah, I'm not an idiot.

It's just that when I tell people

it looks like a face,

they just think I'm weird.

- Well, you are.

- What do you mean?

(Laughs) I'm just messing with ya.

It'd be cool to know

what all those stars were, though.

- You know, like...

- Astronomy?

Yeah. I'm into that stuff.

Me too.

Hey, check this out.

(Andy) That's weird.

Looks like we're looking down.

Yeah. Something about the angle.

# Is there a place where I can go #

# Where the stories all unfold... #

Can I start again?

(All laugh)

Shut up, d*ckhead.

This is what he does,

oi, this is what he does every time.

- Shut up.

- It is!

- Shut up!

- Give me that.

- Give me that.

- No chance. I'm playing, OK?

Are you ready?

# And you know #

# Yeah, you know #

# It's a lonely road #

# And I swear #

# Every story has a turning point #

# Every journey has some roads

way out of joint #

- (Mouths lyrics)

- # Every battle has a setting sun #

# And even stars

they only burn so long #

# And then they're gone #

It's kind of...kind of John Mayer

but a little bit different.

We've sort of got our own sound.

I liked it.

Yeah?

Yeah, well, I wrote the words, so...

F*** it.

(Sighs) See?

We're just like all them stars.

Little specks of nothing.

Random dots lighting up the sky.

- I loved it.

- Yeah?

You, er, ready for the comp

next weekend?

I so don't care about any of that stuff.

Really?

Really.

My dad's all about it.

He's a surf agent.

Well, that's good. Isn't it?

Yeah, if you want an agent.

I mean...

..he sends me sh*t.

He keeps saying this is the year

that he's going to move back.

He never does.

I know he won't.

I don't care if you look at me, Fergus.

- Oh, I was just...

- It's no big deal, mate.

(Fergus sighs)

(Giggling)

Sorry.

(Both laugh)

(Scotty) Hey, Nate!

(Giggling)

Should have known.

Should have known!

Yeah.

# Oh, I don't want

no complication #

# I don't need no obligation #

Do you want to?

- I don't know.

- Come on.

I do, but...

I really like you, Deb.

I mean that. I really do.

Right. Do you have a condom?

Oh, sh*t, no. Do you?

- No.

- F***.

I'll pull out.

- Jesse...

- Come on, I promise.

OK.

- There?

- You're too high.

Wait. Down.

Ow. Wait.

Oh! Oh! Oh, sh*t, yeah.

(Moans)

Oh, sh*t.

- (Debra) Wait. Sh*t. Don't.

- Oh. Oh. Oh.

- Oh.

- Wait. Sh*t.

(Jesse climaxes)

(Debra) Oh, f***!

(Jesse pants)

So you don't like girls, huh?

Yeah.

Sort of.

Well, no. Not really, I guess.

You jerk off?

What?

(Laughs) No!

Sh*t. I do it all the time.
