own this place in ten years or so

for what the lot of you guys are

choking up in rent every month.

Yeah, but I mean, where am I

going to be in ten years?

It's a pretty uncertain

arrangement, so...

Well, listen. Just mention it

to Katie, okay?

I will! Thanks, Dennie.

Later later.

"You always know when best to

be assertive or to simply wait. "

Wakey wakey, pudding pie.

...what I'll see a lot of times,

sitting on the front porch...

is little birds chasing great

big birds out of the tree.

I mean big birds! And they come

flying in, landing on a limb...

and the little bird comes and

chases it out...

and sometimes two or three of

them will chase that big one.

Well, they're territorial...

I know. Why don't you and I go

grocery shopping?

Can I at least hose myself off

first?

Can you put your safety belt on?

It's just that I get the ticket

if we get pulled over, so...

When do you get your license

back again?

When I can afford to take that

SATOP class.

That sh*t is not cheap.

Oh, by the way, Dennie

stopped by today and...

...he said he's thinking

about selling the house.

Sh*t. Are you serious, we have

to move out?

Well, when were you going to

let me know that?

I just did! I just told you!

I took a nap, and then I woke up, and

I told you you as soon as I saw you!

F***!

We only have to move out if someone

actually decides to buy the place.

Great.

And he said that you had right

of first refusal.

For real? Like, what... what's

he asking?

$88,000.

He says it's yours if you want

it.

88?

Ooh look! Stuffed portobello

mushrooms!

These look good. You just throw

them in the oven, and...

Yeah, you should get them.

Yeah. Well, I thinking that we could go

"half-sies" on some of these groceries?

You know, save some money?

The problem with that, I think

right now, is...

I have a hard time visualizing what I'm

going to want to eat three nights from now,

'cause I'm not a food psychic,

and...

...so I just generally pick stuff

up when I'm out on the town,

and then I'm coming home, I'll

get something...

you know, burrito, or whatever,

or...

Fine! Fine.

Then don't f*** with my

portobello mushrooms.

Don't even.

Fine!

These are mine, too.

Okay!

Katie.

I know. Why don't I just, like,

pick up some beer?

Oh, hey. Can you just let me

out up here on the right?

I have a little business to

attend to.

Uh, yeah. Well, you just passed

it, but that's fine.

Um, just anywhere. Up here is

good.

Oh, um. Do me a hot favor, love

biscuit...

don't forget to put those

beers in the fridge so...

...they're nice and icy

cold when I get home. K?

Later later!

Pants!

Hey.

You want to see my ID?
