Bagel Bites are the best food.

I don't like them. They

burn the roof of my mouth.

[Daryl] Because you're doing it wrong.

Charlie's mom always keeps

the fridge stacked with these.

I like Charlie.

'Cause he's smart, his sister has big tits,

and he always has f***ing snacks.

Where is Charlie?

Probably sucking a dick.

He said he wanted to hang out later.

Daryl, don't sit on the counter.

This f***ing guy.

Where are your folks, Josh?

Well, they both work, and then

my brother usually has like

practice or lessons or something.

So no one's here until

like 5:

His brother's like a total prodigy.

I thought you had an older brother.

Yeah, I do. Danny's in the Marines.

His sh*t's still here?

Sh*t? What do you mean "his sh*t"?

[Zach] Josh, you know, his sh*t.

Oh.

[Daryl] This place seems f***ing haunted.

[Josh] This used to be a rec room.

Danny started sleeping here

after he got his job at Harveys.

Take your shoes off.

[Zach] You gotta be kidding me, dude.
