Coming to hold you close
My name is Walter Spackman
26 years old.
I ran out of money,
so I had to move back home.
And I'm currently washing dogs
until I save up enough money
to move out.
But the thing is,
I buried the headline.
'Cause in about two seconds
everything is gonna change.
Whoa, that's so...
10, 9, 8...
Rise and shine,
my little boomerang!
Up and at 'em
6, 5...
He who hesitates is brunch.
3, 2...
Lily.
All work and no play
makes Jack my first husband.
And if I find you
standing there
if at first you don't succeed,
you're a spackman.
[ Dog barking ]
And if I find you
standing there
Hey!
Walter, don't do it.
It's a death trap.
Lily's back visiting her dad.
I can tell by the way
the air shimmers.
Also... she texted me.
Ok, he doesn't listen
to a word I say.
I appreciate your concern
and I know you care about me...
if that's what you mean
by caring.
I'm gonna be late for work.
Walter, you're too old for me
to lock up in the basement,
but you're too young to know
that dreams are just lies
that we tell ourselves
while we're asleep.
I should have told her when we were 10
and she hated her braces.
in my sleep.
I should have told her
when we were 16
and she blew out her knee
in Kitzbuhel.
I should have told her
when we were 20
and she left Chicago to build
the hospitals in Kenya.
Oh, yeah,
like that's a big thing.
Today I am finally
going to tell Lily Theroux
exactly how I feel.
in the right order
like a magic spell,
and when I do,
everything will be different
than it was before.
I'll be different, too.
Walter?
Walter.
Hearts don't break
like legs break.
I...
Wait, Walter!
Eat your toast!
I:
[ Sighs ]
she has a beauty...
Dude.
Last poodle of the day?
[ Dog growls ]
It's not a poodle.
Give me 10 minutes.
All right.
[ Dog barking ]
Bedroom and practice room.
What's practice room?
It's like a room that's too big
to call a closet
but too small to
call a bedroom, uh.. huh.
Lucky for me I don't own
anything bigger than a toaster.
[ Chuckles ]
Yeah, uh, Joey Katz...
The guy who repeat fainted in Mr.
Danforth's bio class? Right.
Everything works,
the landlord's decent,
so we can go check it out
tomorrow if you want.
I got the day off
at the restaurant.
You still on prep?
Screw up once and they think
you don't know the difference
between a fork and a spoon.
I'm a lil cook, man.
Chopping lettuce is beneath me.
Lucky lounge tonight.
Everybody's going.
if you'd be there.
comes from? - Beer.
The subgenual anterior
cingulate cortex.
Increased activity in the cortex
is what makes you brave.
Lily's back in town.
How could you tell?
I'll see you tomorrow, Walter.
[ Sighs ]
Are you ready
to sit by his throne?
are you ready
are you ready...
are you ready
are you ready
Lily.
[ Chuckling ]
Walter!
I can't believe your mom
still has this old car.
Yeah, the engine runs on anger
and wishful thinking.
Good gas mileage, too.
Do you remember the minivan
of sorrow?
My dad used to take me on those
father/daughter road trips
to crooked lake,
where they have the... the...
the tents with the for.
And... and he'd make a fire,
roast marshmallows,
