Listen up, punks! You're all here for the same reason! You're not married! Yet! But if you continue down the road that you're on, you continue to make the kinds of choices you've been making, you're gonna end up in the suburbs.
Take a good look, ladies.
This is where you're headed! See any sports bars or clubs or sexy single ladies? Ew Hey, Mike? I-I don't have time for this.
I got to go home and cook dinner for Kayla, so Don't you get it? I'm doing this for you.

Okay! It's time to introduce you to a special speaker.

I suggest you listen carefully to what he has to say.
I brought you some fresh meat.
Hi, guys.
My name is Daniel.
I'm 39 years old, and I'm serving a life sentence to my wife, without the possibility of parole.
You know, when I met Amy, she was fun! She chugged beer faster than me.
She loved cocaine.
Do it whenever it was around.
A month ago, she caught me smoking a cigarette right there on the porch, and she started to cry.
She made me promise to start taking my health more seriously.
Yeah.
So I started doing Pilates.

- Oh, yeah, - you got a text? - Yeah.
Let's see what it says.
"Five "five little kisses - for your cute little baby face.
" - Five kisses? Oh, 'cause we got eight eight guys here.
I don't know if that's enough kisses for everyone.
Who's gonna suck my dick? - U-Understood.

He's only 27, and already in a serious relationship.
No, we just kind of started seeing each other, so Oh, first you're just going out, then all of a sudden she's got almond milk and work clothes at your place.
ding-dong, ding-dong, you're married, you're pregnant, gravestone.

I just, I don't think it's working out.
It's not you I mean, everything's so crazy - with my band right now - Uh-huh.
Yeah.
I-I mean, maybe we can try, like, an open relationship.
Uh Becca? You there? Uh, hi, Kayla.
So, I've been doing a lot of thinking about, uh, us, and I just needed to say that I like you a lot and also, what do you think about Portobello mushrooms for dinner? They do go with quinoa! Exactly what I was thinking.
So eight-ish? We lost him.
Quinoa.
Quinoa.
M M-Maggie.
Hey.
I'm sorry for barging in like this.
I just, um I really need a friend right now.
- Can I come in? - Well, yeah.
Of course.
Yeah.
C-Come on in.
- Thanks.
- Whoa.
Whoa.
Hi.
Hi, uh, Kayla.
I think I think I think I need to postpone.
Um, I'm feeling kind of tired, all of a sudden, like I like I might be coming down with something.
You don't have to cook, if it's a hassle.
We could just do takeout.
Y W-Would it be okay if we just try tomorrow? Yeah.
Get some rest, and I'll see you tomorrow.
Okay.
Thank you so much.
That's-that's lovely.
I'll see you I'll see you then.
and I told him, "If you don't appreciate me, I don't think I can do this anymore.
" Wh-Which I mean, I think you did the right thing.
Yeah.
- Yeah? - It's none of my business, but you don't deserve to be treated like that.
I don't.
I'm sorry.
I'm sorry for unloading on you like this.
I just You know, nobody knows me like you do, so Are you cooking something? - Oh, crap.
Yes, I am, too.
- Really? That would be You're smelling portobello mushrooms, uh, and quinoa.
Really! Well, I'm full of surprises.
Would you would you like some? Um can I? - Yeah.
Yeah.
Is - Yeah? No, there's enough, uh there's enough for two people.
Yes.
Okay, just - uh, will you just give me a few moments? - Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
I need to They're ready for you inside, Mr.
Greenberg.
Okay.
Mr.
Greenberg, you stand accused of boyfriend misconduct.
- How do you plead? - Not-not guilty, Your Honor.
The fact is, all right, I postponed dinner with Kayla.
But, uh, where's the crime in that? Does a boyfriend not have the right to - rearrange a date? - Son, that's not what's at issue here.
You are here today because you lied to her.
Up, bup, bup, bup, bup, bup, bup! Webster's Dictionary, which I'm sure you're familiar with I'm sure all these good people, familiar with it defines a lie thusly, as a falsehood, an untruth.
All I did was kind of alter plans.
- No lies were uttered.
- Thank you for the vocabulary lesson, Mr.
Greenberg.
What about when you said and I quote "I am feeling kind of tired.
" - I was feeling kind of tired.
- Maybe.
But that's not why you canceled dinner.
You canceled because your ex-girlfriend showed up Well, now, listen, Your Honor, we-we can split hairs all day, jibber-jabber back and forth until we're as mixed up as a as a one-legged man at a hoedown! - Why is that funny? - But the fact is I have committed no offense, and I defy this court to prove otherwise.
Aw, screw it.
All right, the court finds in Josh's favor.
I knew it! Thank you Do not give him high fives.
Do not! Indicate high fives.
Multiple.
And then that guy was all like, Mm-hmm.
"Uh, reservation? What reservation?" So creepy.
Yeah yeah.
So scary.
- Remember how gross that pool was? - Oh, my God.
Somehow didn't dissuade the-the two of us dumb-asses from swimming in it.
Not just swimming in it.
I'll be right back.
I mean, how many times are we gonna do this? Your Honor - I am completely innocent.
- Oh, please.
She referenced sex - and then she touched you on the hand.
- Oh.
Oh, I'm sorry.
I didn't Are friends not allowed to touch each other's hands? I didn't realize that.
Of course they are.
Wh-What's next? No more high fives? A ban on fist bumps, perhaps, eh? All right.
What about the wine? - Explain that.
- Aha! Webster's Dictionary defines wine as "the fermented juice of grapes used especially - as a bev" I'm sorry.
- I didn't mean explain wine.
We know what wine is.
There's a precedent for grown-ups sharing a bottle - of wine at dinner.
- Oh, really? - Mm-hmm.
- But when's the last time that you and Mike shared a bottle of wine? Shared a bottle of wine and touched each other's hands? Listen, we-we can we can jibber-jabber all day, back and forth Jibber-jabber a second time.
Until we're as mixed up as a-a three-legged horse at a rodeo.
One lady.
Thank you, ma'am.
Uh, but the-the fact remains, I have done nothing wrong.
Goddamn it.
All right, my hands are tied.
Due to a lack of hard evidence, this court is forced to rule in Josh's favor.
No one high-five him.
- Thank you.
She did.
- Oh Susan - Hey.
- Oh.
I am so tired.
Yeah.
Oh.
Yeah, I guess I guess it's late.
It is late.
I should probably go.
Or-or-or or we-we, uh could watch something.
Like what? We never finished Carnivàle.
I know, I know.
People watch shows together all the time, man.
But come on, man I mean, she was about to leave.
She was out the door, and you suggested something that would keep her there.
That's, for me, when it became a date.
A-a date? Specifically a date? - Yes.
- Because the dictionary might disagree.
Oh, God, the dictionary! Oh, fuck you off.
Webster's defines a date as a romantic outing, okay? - So did we go did we go out? - No.
No.
No.
Did we kiss? Maybe not.
But, come on, you're on the couch, - you're watching Carnivàle.
- Listen, - I am not the kind of guy who cheats.
- Well The point is we can jibber-jabber back and forth Okay? Until we're Jibber-jabber a third time.
As mixed up as a-a Here it comes two-horned! - As a two-horned, uh - Asian.
- Asian, um - Careful.
- You son of a bitch.
Okay.
- Trapped.
All right.
I used to be a prosecutor.
The point is what I'm trying to say is technically I haven't done anything wrong.
- Well, technically, no, you haven't.
- Aha! Technically, no, I haven't.
You said technically I haven't done anything wrong.
That means that means I win.
Remember this day.
The day that blind Lady Justice took her own life.
It is with great shame and utter disgust that this court is forced to rule in Josh's favor.
Thanks, man.
"Thanks, man"? Don't type that.
What are Goddamn it.
The moment you put on that red nose and threw in your lot with the strongman and the dog boy Yeah.
It's a pretty good pretty good episode of Carnivàle.
You cannot stop the cyclone's swirl or the dog boy's dog boy dance.
- The great orb spins despite.
- Um the will of man, and now the dust has settled on the choices thou hath wrought.
For this is no carnival, my friend.
This is Carnivàle! We're ready.
Josh? Think he went to the bedroom with her? Oh Told you! Hi.
Hi.
- Hi.
How are you feeling? - Uh, uh, uh, better.
Good.
Good.
And so do you want to do dinner tonight? Uh Listen, you're a terrific girl and I really, uh, enjoy your company and I'm really sorry about this, but I don't think we can keep hanging out.
So we should probably not have dinner.
- This is abrupt.
- Yeah.
Yep.
I know.
I'm sorry.
- Okay, bye.
- Okay, bye-bye.
Frittatas.
Hey Hey.
- I'm so hungover.

Um - Okay.
- Let's just pretend - like it never happened, okay? - Okay, so Um, yeah.
We-we finished Carnivàle last night.
Hmm? We finally finished the last two episodes of Carnivàle.
I don't remember.
