so it's not an issue.

- No, it's not that.

You're family.

We have a guest bedroom

for a reason.

- Not sure what Eric

would think about that.

- I'm sure he'll be

excited to see you.

- Yeah, okay.

- Okay.

[ laughing ]

- I think you're right.

Hey, you're home early.

- Yeah. I thought

we could actually

have dinner together for once.

- Look who's here.

- Hey, Eric.

How's it going?

- Hi. When did you...

- He works in Alaska now, Dad.

Crab fishing like

in the shows you watch.

Me and mom made him stay.

- Which I knew

you would want, right?

- Yeah, absolutely.

Well, just excuse me a minute.

- Eric.

Sorry. I...

Let me just...

- It's okay.

- Eric?

Eric? Hey.

[ rock music plays ]

- Are you kidding me?

How do you not like this song?

It's awesome.

- I hate it.

I mean, I just hate it.

Come on, Uncle Dave.

Can I pick a song?

- Be my guest.

I'm gonna go grab a beer.

- Okay.

- Are you excited

for sundaes?

- Yeah, yeah.

- Remember on our first date

I had a craving

for a hot fudge sundae?

You drove me to every

restaurant in town

trying to find

sundaes at midnight.

Why are you mad, babe?

- I'm not.

- I don't understand

what's going on.

You love your brother.

You only every have

good things to say about him.

- Of course, I love him.

I just...

- What?

- I just... I'm surprised,

that's all.

My head's in my work.

- You should have seen

David's face

when you walked away from him.

He was crushed.

- One of our presentations

fell through.

We're way, way behind.

I just didn't expect to see

my brother who I haven't seen

in a million years

in my living room

when I got home from work.

You're right.

I'm sorry.

You married a jerk.

- No, I married a sweet guy.

Now go be that sweet guy

to the brother

you haven't seen in

a million years.

- Okay, all right.

- Hey.

- Hey, man.

- Can I have one of those too?

- Hey, what's going on?

- Hey. Let's just give them

a minute, okay?

- Hey, sorry I haven't...

- No, don't... don't worry

about it, man.

- Thank God we had a daughter.

[ laughs ]

- A perfect daughter?

- An absolutely

perfect daughter.

[ giggles ]

- She doesn't know

what happened with me?

- No, no.

Mm-mmm.

- Just so you know, man,

that was like

a really long

time ago, right?

I'm totally

straightened out now.

Got a great job,

seeing a therapist,

taking meds.

I don't know, man,

I feel like 100%, 110%.

I get it.

If I were you,

I'd be concerned too.

But I just want you to know

that like it's all good.

- Want another beer?

- No, no. I'm good.

- Let's get back to the girls.

- Yeah.

- Oh, hey, there's a fishing

spot outside of town.

It's beautiful.

I'll take you there once things
