The Weather Man Page #5

heard taunting, the older boys calling it.

- You might have heard wrong.

- No, I heard camel...

Okay, okay, look. I'll deal.

I want to get her through this ACL thing.

I'm gonna take her shooting.

I'm gonna reapply her there.

I'm gonna get her talking to me.

I'm gonna get to her...

and I'm gonna work it out.

A camel toe is pretty much

what Robert said it was.

It's basically just when you

can make out more than you should.

But it's the kind of thing...

She's 12, you know?

If you're around and paying attention,

you catch it...

then name-calling doesn't start,

and maybe smoking doesn't start.

And maybe she can just stay

a happy kid for a couple more years.

She shouldn't be unhappy.

F***. What did she ever do

to anybody? Shelly.

- Hello.

- Hey.

Hey.

Listen.

Noreen, I was thinking...

this pushing and pulling...

the tug-of-war we do sometimes...

it's not good for the kids.

It's not.

Noreen, let's see somebody.

Work it out. Let's...

- F***!

- A**hole!

Are you okay?

- I got hit with a pop!

- What?

A f***ing...

A Big Gulp.

- Man.

- Are you okay? Are you okay?

Yeah, I'm okay. I'm okay. So...

what I was saying...

See somebody?

We're going to begin

with some trust-building exercises.

The Buddy Drop. Up on your feet.

Let's go.

Dave, Noreen. Center circle.

Okay.

Now, Noreen,

you're just gonna let yourself go...

and Dave is gonna catch you.

- Just go back?

- Yeah. Cross your arms up front.

- Now?

- Whenever you're ready.

Okay.

Good. Very good.

All right, Teresa, Mark. You're up.

Okay.

Now I want you to name something...

that you did that affected your partner...

and that you're not proud of.

I had this thing with porno

on the computer, sort of.

I got a little preoccupied...

Actually, I want you to write it down,

not say it.

Okay.

I want you to put it on the paper

that you got for a reason.

Okay.

Now make sure it's something

the other person doesn't know about...

that they don't know.

All right.

Then you are going to give it

to the other person...

and the other person

is never going to look at it.

Ever.

That's trust.

What's up?

I thought Dave's science-fiction novel,

or whatever it was...

was stupid and sucked...

and was a waste of time.

It was embarrassing. Four years?

Well, I thought that went pretty well.

Yeah.

It wasn't science fiction,

just so you know.

- What?

- It wasn't science fiction.

- What are you talking about?

- Did you even read it?

No. One of the side characters

was a scientist...

- but that's not even important...

- God damn it, Dave. God damn it!

What? I'm just asking,

did you ever even read it?

It was hard to read.

It was poorly written.
