- Yeah.

- Like...

honestly, to me, no matter

how much technology progresses...

it's still not going to be okay

to do personal things impersonally.

I spent, um, the larger portion of my life

believing my mom was dead.

Finding out she's alive and-and...

you know, I have a half-sister,

and I have a half-brother...

and I'm an aunt and, like...

It's... You know, it kind of blew my mind.

Um...

But it's not the right time right now.

I... You know, with my mom,

with my sister.

I just had to put it on the back burner...

and just kind of say no for now.

It's just... It's just a bad time.

It's just I don't...

I don't think...

her, um, approach was okay.

I just...

I don't think either one of us

is healthy enough right now.

You know, she has an ongoing

heroin addiction...

that's extremely prevalent in her life.

She...

Uh, she can't be a mom.

She can't even be a friend.

And she doesn't owe it to me

to be my mom.

She just...

I guess the reason I'm upset is because

she owes it to me to be a decent person...

a decent human being,

and she's never done that.

So, I don't know.

I just...

I'll live without her.

Geez, dude.

I win.

- Morning.

- Good morning.

You're terrible.

I'm not nervous.

Do you have stage fright?

- I do not have stage fright.

- Are you nervous?

Man, I'm not even going anywhere

near a stage.

Okay.

...left-hand side.

$25,000 up for grabs today, in addition

to the obscene amount of prizes.

And we have the best

Europe has to offer as well.

They're here and ready to throw down

against their North American counterparts.

I am excited.

If you're not having fun

yet, just try harder.

Come get your sign-up on.

Five, four, three, two, one!

Bang, bang, bang!

Let's get it done.

Coming from Santa Clarita, California,

number 103, Kevin Conway.

See, the first trick,

he landed it, and he broke the board.

So, unfortunately,

Kevin didn't place in the competition.

Um, and he didn't win the money...

but, you know,

I don't want to sound too cheesy...

but I'm really proud of him

just for getting there...

and competing in such a big event.

Yeah, this girl Kristen's been, like,

helping me with math and stuff.

She's, like, a brainiac.

Let me read. No, it was...

I didn't see what it was.

Yeah. Point. So I can catch up.

Okay, so...

Worst.

No, minus 81.

Mmm. I don't know. I guess it's safe to say

I kind of have, like, a crush on her.

Garrison doesn't know

what he wants. I mean, you know...

she's fun, she's crazy.

She likes different things,

and it's funny, 'cause I never...

I mean,

Garrison never really liked those things.

He was always, you know,

a conservative who loved punk rock music...
