Our Idiot Brother Page #4

- If you think that's best.

- Yeah.

You know what? I'll think about it

and I'll try and come back next time

with some more steps and options, that

kind of thing, for our next meeting.

- You do that, buddy.

- This is cool, man.

- Yeah.

- This is like...

This is like free therapy.

New York State cares.

Is that it? That's it?

- That's it.

- My 50 minutes are up?

- Yeah.

- All right, man. OK.

- OK.

- Thanks a lot.

Hey, is it lame if I bail on Nat's show?

Yeah. Then no one will be there.

What the hell is that noise?

Oh, that's River's shehnai.

You have no idea how competitive

admissions have gotten.

God, Ned just showed up.

- I'll call you back.

- All right, bye.

Hi.

- You said your door was always open.

- I did, yeah.

I hope this is OK, Ned.

Are you kidding? This is great.

My God, I get to rock

the full-on slumber party

with my man River every night.

I mean, Mom's great and all, but...

Oh. No, Ned, it's all right. I get it.

So, the deal is, if it's OK with you,

you'll get $250 a week,

you'll help us out with River,

and you get to work with Dylan

on the documentary.

Yeah, I hope you don't have to fire

anyone to make room for me, Dyl.

Oh, yeah, but it's family first, right?

You guys.

Come on, bud, let's go.

So, you're telling me

you've never seen The Pink Panther?

Mom and Dad don't like violent movies.

Yeah, but it's not violent,

it's hilarious.

- Nobody's actually getting hurt.

- Mm-hmm.

Get on your feet. Come on, come here.

On your feet, River Rochlin Byng.

Welcome to my dojo.

Give me a chop.

- What was that?

- Karate chop.

That was a...? That wasn't a chop.

You know what that was? That was this...

Chop me. Do it.

- How about this?

- Oh! Ah!

Christ! it's after 10:00, for Christ's

sakes, River has school in the morning.

Oh, God, sorry, yeah.

I must've lost track of time again.

Ned, what's the laptop

doing in his bedroom?

We were just watching Pink Panther

We loaned you the computer for your

resume, not to look at pink panthers.

No, The Pink...

it's just Pink Panther.

This country's obsessed with screens.

He's seven years-old,

for Christ's sakes.

Ahh.

Whoops.

- Good night, Riv.

- Good night.

I mean, he's not

like a criminal or anything,

he's just a f***-up who needs help.

Well, if he's got any of your genes,

I'd be happy to throw him a few bucks

- to do a little modeling.

- That would be awesome.

Then he'd have cash

and somewhere to go.

Sure. Hey, have you heard

of Sustainable Upgrade?

Sustainable Upgrade,

it's a life-coaching program.

It saved me. I was like

your brother is now, floating.

Waiting for someone

to give me a sense of purpose.

Cool, I'll tell him.
