- Sorry.

- You can't be serious.

What do want me to say?

I don't know. It took me over two years

to get to a point where I can

clean out his room, and you,

you don't care about his stuff?

- That's not fair.

- Isn't it?

Well, get pissed! It's not going to make

my boat any bigger.

No! No!

If you wanna act

like Josh never existed,

if hiding makes it

easier for you, great.

But make no mistake, you are hiding!

Darkness, don't give way to the light

I wish I may, I wish I might

Stay with you, with you

We'll shine so bright

Just raise your glasses

and drink one to the night

It's so...

Well, I'm tryin' to get home

But it feels like another life

Yeah, I'm tryin' to be strong

Sometimes I realize

That the further I go

The more that I know

That I wanna go home

Well, I'm packin' my bags

Another day and another town

What a fool I am

Can't seem to settle down

Cause the further I go

The more that I know

That I wanna go home

And the further I go...

The further I... The further I go

The more that I know

That I wanna go home

Hey, what do you say there, Alard?

It's Alaird.

These are the kind of days

worth working for, huh?

- I just wanna be forthright and honest.

- Oh, good.

I had to file another complaint about

you relieving yourself in the lake.

- The rules are quite clear.

- Alard,

do you realize how many of our

conversations are about my penis?

You're not nearly as funny

as you think you are.

This is a family lake.

You've been warned.

Don't say a word about your plans

Maybe I don't give a damn

Don't say a word about your plans...

You here to play? Just you?

Sign-up's right there.

Can I get a Mustang Wheat?

Brian, that was terrific.

I hate to say this.

I love it when women break your heart,

because you write

beautiful love songs about 'em.

Give it up for Brian.

No lemon.

Maybe I... I should stay

I'm better off your way

But I'm not givin' up

Show your faith

You got a lot of nerve

To come around here

That was fantastic.

Tolly and Tina, everybody.

Next we have...

Alard Dick.

- Tolly, that was really nice.

- Thanks.

Well, I'm trying to get home

But it feels like another life

Yeah, I'm trying to stay strong

And sometimes I realize

That the further I go

The more that I know

That I wanna go home

Well, I'm packin' my bags

Another day and another town

What a fool I am

Can't seem to settle down

'Cause the further I go

The more that I know

That I wanna go home

You can't take that outside.

Excuse me? Excuse me.

That was awesome.

And when I say awesome, I mean

"hairs on my neck stand up" awesome.

I wanted to say something to you earlier,

but you look scary.
