- I can help you.

I'm good. Thank you.

Aimee, you're gonna drive

around the neighborhood...

and I don't know where my car is.

So I think that we can

help each other out.

What do you say?

- Try aiming ahead of the driveway.

- Okay.

Didn't realize newspaper throwing

was such a big business.

- Must make a lot of money.

- Yeah. I mean, my mom does.

- You get nothing?

- No, I get a little.

Most of it goes toward

paying the bills though, so-

That doesn't sound fair.

You do all the work, don't you?

- Some of it- Most of it.

- She's your mom.

She should be paying all your bills.

I'm serious.

That doesn't sound fair to me.

I think you're getting the raw end

of this newspaper-throwing deaI.

- It's fine.

- I think I'm getting the hang of it.

Should have seen me back in the day.

When I was in Little League,

I had a good arm.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

My dad said I could have went pro

if I'd stuck with it.

Yeah! Dude, you're a naturaI.

Good job.

Sh*t. I think I hit a dog.

- What?

- I'm serious.

- Sutter!

- It's still walking.

Went way downtown!

You know, Aimee Finecky...

I was having a really rotten night

last night untiI you came along.

I think that we should

get lunch sometime.

- How about Monday?

- Okay. Monday it is.

- You're up early.

- Yup.

They have me

on a double shift. Again.

Damn it, Sutter.

Didn't I ask you to hang this for me?

Look how wrinkled this is.

Would've taken you two seconds to hang

this up for me. Is that too much to ask?

I forgot. I'm sorry.

It's not like you do much around here.

Hey. I do a lot around here.

I'm sorry. I hate to interrupt

your Cheerio... eating.

I'm sorry, Mom.

Sometimes you remind me

so much of your dad.

All right, there's leftovers

in the fridge.

I won't be home for dinner.

Or you can call your sister.

And, Sutter?

Next time I ask you to do something-

I love you so much it hurts.

- It hurts me how much I love you.

- You know what's gonna really hurt?

Who knew dinner and a movie

would cost 30 bucks?

Pretty much anybody

who's ever been on a date.

The best part is, dude, she didn't care.

She paid for popcorn and everything.

She's just-

What?

- Did you kiss her?

- Check.

- Yeah? Did you get tongue action?

- Double-check.

- Nice.

- Thanks, man.

What do you want to eat for lunch?

I'm starving.

Aren't you eating with what's-her-name?

Sh*t. Yeah. I forgot.

I gotta tell you, Sutter.

Aimee Finecky?

It's just a strange choice

for a rebound.

Dude, she's not a rebound.

She's not. Do I look like I have

any interest in dating Aimee Finecky?

I think she's a nice girI...

whose mom makes her

deliver newspapers...
