Bad Counselors (2026) Movie Script
whimsical music
All my life, I've wanted
to be successful,
which is why Grossman and Birch
is the only place for me.
I wanna work
with the best, right?
And this job is next step
to do that.
Look, Howard,
I've learned a lot in college,
not the least of which is this.
Nothing in life
is handed to you. Right?
If you really,
really want something,
you go and you earn it.
[Howard]
Well said, Grayson.
Tell me about one
of your weaknesses.
Hm. One of my weaknesses. Um...
Howard,
I'm not gonna lie to you.
I have got incredibly
skinny calves.
[Howard] [laughs]
You and me both, buddy.
My wife is always trying
to get me to work out.
By the way, Howard, that is
an exquisite vase behind you.
Oh, this?
I just brought this back
from Kyoto.
Do you know much
about Kintsugi pottery?
Oh, of course.
I love Kintsugi.
And you know what I love
about Kintsugi,
I...I...
I love how the artist
repairs the broken pottery
with gold,
rendering a piece
that is even more valuable
than it was before
it was broken.
- Exactly. [chuckles]
Ah.
You know, and rather than
trying to hide the damages,
Kintsugi highlights
the repairs.
I mean, the imperfections
are what make it beautiful.
Wow. I see someone
was paying attention
in art history.
Oh... I did take it
to impress a girl, so.
But if I'm being honest,
I guess I learned
a thing or two.
I like you. [chuckles]
Look, I think you're
a remarkable young man
- and I think you'll fit in--
Oh, thank you.
perfectly here
at Grossman and Birch.
We'll be calling you soon,
but I am confident
I'll be seeing you here
in New York once you graduate.
Thank you, sir. It has been
so great getting to talk to you.
I look forward to hearing
from you soon, all right?
[Howard] All right. Talk soon.
All right.
Well, that went well.
Bro, I think
you pulled that off.
Yep. Only one more thing to do.
Porkchop, I have a task for you.
Whoa. Hey.
Where's the nose?
- Come on.
- Oh. Sorry, sir.
- Thank you. There you go.
- [oinking]
- All right, porky.
- [Tyler] Whoa. There it is.
- [chuckles]
- All right.
I'm gonna need you to order me
a bottle of single malt
to Howard Grossman's office
in New York.
Need something nice.
Overnight it.
Permission to speak, sir.
- [whispers] Granted.
- Granted.
I'm not 21, sir.
Okay? Figure it out.
Sir, legally,
I can't buy alcohol.
He said, figure it out, pledge.
He always looks so scared.
Why he look like
he always gonna cry?
Yo, yo, invincible
You have to plead
on principle
And leave this all behind
Ill wait for [indistinct]
Dont waste my time though
No
Ill wait for [indistinct]
Dont waste my time though
No
All right.
Come on, pledges.
Delta Gamma will be here
any second.
Chop-chop.
The girls are on their way.
Here you go.
Ah, look, you can just throw
the rest of that ice
at the upstairs bar.
There isn't an upstairs bar.
Oh, well, guess what?
Build one.
man:
Bro, you blooming maggot.
Ahhh! Whooo!
[laughing]
Oh. Man, I'm gonna miss this.
I'm gonna miss you, bro.
What am I gonna do next year
when you're gone?
Tyler, you're gonna run
this place, man.
Hey, maybe I'll pop in
for a few parties
every now and then.
What,
all the way from NYC?
Oh, and congrats
on the new job.
It's--it's gotta feel good.
Yeah, man.
It feels great.
It's everything
I worked for, you know?
Yeah. Totally, bro.
Can I ask you something?
Do you think Stud Muffins
is a good idea?
Yeah, man.
Twenty-two grams of protein
in a delicious whole grain
muffin is genius.
Yeah. Thanks, Gray.
That means a lot.
I--I spent a lot of money
on those shirts.
Boy, you did.
Well, come on.
Let's celebrate.
- All right.
- [groans]
Now you know the drill.
Clink. [laughter]
Mm. Mm.
[knock on door]
Delta Gamma.
It's a little
early though, huh?
Arrr!
Officer Montgomery.
Hey. [awkward chuckle]
You know what, we're good
on Girl Scout cookies.
Thanks for stopping by.
Ahoy there, mateys.
You're not throwing
a party tonight, are you?
- Party? Oh.
- Yeah--
I--I--no.
Couldnt be.
pirate pledge: So close to me, booty, we can almost taste it.
You know, that--that--we were--
we're studying for the musical.
- Musical.
- We're a doing musical.
- We're doing a musical.
- I love musicals.
Yeah. [chuckles]
- What's it called?
- Oh.
- Pirates of PennPennsyl--
- P--P--P--
- Pennsylvania.
- Sounds fun.
Let's hear
a little something from it.
- [singing] We are the pirates.
- Pirates of the--
We are the pirates of the ship. -ship.
I don't need to remind you
that your fraternity
is still on probation
for another month.
- Yeah, no.
- Tell you what.
I'm gonna go ahead
and park a couple officers
- outside all night.
- Oh, two.
Okay, so you might wanna call your friends over at Tri Delt
and tell them,
Gotta reschedule this here
- pirate party.
- Actually, it's Delta Gamma.
Okay, well,
let's, no, just, no.
Hey...
don't do anything stupid.
Good night.
[door closes]
All right, pledges,
you heard her,
we can stop setting up.
Man. That sucks.
Yeah, Moose is right.
What are we supposed
to do next?
[Porkchop]
We can actually study-
[gibberish]
Shut it, Porkchop.
Hey. I spent 50 bucks
on this costume.
That costume's fire, bro.
What a waste of a perfectly
good Wednesday night.
[Grayson] Guys, come on.
When one door closes,
we find another door, right?
- Come on.
- Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yes. Okay. So we can't throw
a party here tonight.
That's fine.
- We are Beta Alpha Delta.
- all: Yeah!
That means our night
never ends.
- all: Never.
- Right?
- man: Hell, yeah.
- That's right.
We could go
to Whiskey Wednesday
at that new club on Fourth.
- [Grayson] Yes.
- Yes. Yes.
[Grayson] I love that. Yes.
See, when life gives you lemons,
what do you do?
[burbles]
You make a bourbon sour.
[laughter]
Hey. To a night
well never forget.
- Yeah.
- Yeah. Yeah.
And a night
we won't remember, boys!
Yeah!
[laughs]
upbeat music
Boys are on the way.
man: This is gonna be
a dope night.
[car door closes]
Whooo.
Guys, you don't need that here.
You're good. Go on in.
- [chuckles]
- Thank you, sir.
[indistinct]
Let it go
Yes. Bro, this is epic.
Dude, I know.
It's like half nightclub,
- half rock concert.
- Right.
Never let you go
Wonder where the bar is.
I don't know. Go find it.
No matter where we go
- Never let you go
- Uh, Grayson?
- Grayson?
- Never let you go
Grayson! Grayson!
What? What? What?
Hey. I--I just have
a weird feeling.
It's fine.
Just go get us a few drinks.
I'm--I'm gonna talk
to these girls.
Just do your thing.
Never let you go
Never let you go
We didnt know where to go
Grayson! Grayson.
What? What?
I think it's a church.
This is not a church.
[shouts] Jesus!
- It's a church.
- Yeah. What do we do?
- Hey, go!
- Wow. Wow.
Let's give it up to our
amazing worship team, right?
So anointing. Come on.
All right.
Y'all better have a seat.
Pop a squat if you got.
Oh, we're sitting.
No. We are not staying.
My name is Dallas,
and I'm the youth pastor here
at Redemption,
but tonight is not about me.
No. Tonight is about Him. Right?
I'm preaching to somebody.
Come on.
[clapping]
Right?
Who all is here at Redemption
for the very first time?
First-time guests.
Yes. Yes. Amazing.
I just have one
quick announcement.
We still need
some more camp counselors
for our spring break
overnight camp.
[applauds]
That's right.
Don't be shy.
So if you're interested,
make sure you go
to the sign-up sheet
in the back lobby
with Becky over there.
All right. Well,
without further ado,
I think we gotta pray.
- God. We love you so much.
- Go, go, go.
Now, you are a good,
good father.
I'm just praying off
the dome here.
You love like a hurricane.
Okay? And I'm bending
and I'm--I'm shaking.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Are you guys leaving?
No, no. We're just grabbing some fresh air.
- Some fresh air. Yeah.
- Oh.
No. I totally get that.
Our worship can be
pretty insane, right?
Not everybody can handle it.
I'm one of the camp counselors. I'm Becky. You are?
I'm Grayson. This is Tyler.
Tyler! Aren't you an answer
to my prayers.
I...I am?
We're looking
for more male counselors
for Camp Burning Bush.
I can guarantee you it will
be the best week of your year.
What do you say?
You want some more information?
You know, we're actually
running out of time.
We're a little late,
so let's just--we gotta go.
Thanks, Becky.
Appreciate you.
muffled upbeat music
- Oh, [...].
- [exhales]
[Tyler] Oh.
[Grayson] There it is.
[scoffs]
Heh. To a night
we'll never forget.
And a night we won't remember.
[knock on door]
[Tyler groans]
[stretching]
Oh, man.
What happened last night, bro?
Ugh, I feel terrible.
Oh. Oh.
Tyler. Tyler. Tyler.
Morning, boys.
Take that stupid thing
off your head.
You got anything to say
for yourselves?
Uh... We're sorry.
Mm-hm. For...?
For...
Public intoxication,
destruction of school property, disturbing the peace.
- Should I keep going?
- Okay, okay.
Officer Montgomery, those
are outrageous accusations.
I mean, without
any concrete evidence,
you cannot get us
for any of those.
Excalibur must be freed.
[laughs] I can't get it.
Okay, there you go.
There you go.
Oh.
[Grayson] I dub thee Sir Tyler
of Beta Alpha Delta.
[post clanks]
One more!
[post clanks]
[Grayson]
Okay. Oh, oh. Not again.
officer: Security. Freeze!
Run! Run! Run!
I think we lost them.
This is crazy.
[laughs]
- Wow.
[Tyler gags]
Hey, hey.
Have you lost weight?
Because you look great.
- Oh, you can tell?
- Yeah.
I look good?
- Mm.
- [laughing]
[all laughing]
Shut up.
You think expulsion is funny?
Wait. Expulsion, what?
Would you gentlemen like to see the other 17 videos you posted?
Kinda...
Okay. Officer Montgomery,
look, rather than allowing
this mistake
to ruin our lives,
let's make good out of it.
So like community service?
Well, I was thinking
more like a donation
to the charity of your choice.
Okay. Oh, community service
is great.
I mean, a day
at a soup kitchen?
- Soup.
- You know what?
Never mind.
No, no, no, no.
We will do a hundred hours.
Okay. No, probably
not a hundred
because that's
a tad bit excessive.
- [chuckles]
- I like it.
How about 120 hours?
Um, okay. Just meet me
in the middle here.
The judiciary board
is gonna meet the Monday
after we get back
from spring break.
If you boys have completed
all 120 hours,
I'll drop the charges.
But that's in two weeks.
Yeah. Better get started.
Any questions?
Can I borrow a shirt?
I'll see what I can do.
Dude, how are we gonna get
120 hours in two weeks?
I don't know.
Maybe we could foster a dog?
Is that--like,
is that a real suggestion?
Just shut up and let me think.
Fine, I'll look for charities.
ethereal music
Bro.
[laughs] No.
Absolutely not. No.
Give me one good reason.
Yeah. I'll give you three.
One, I hate kids.
Two, I hate camping.
And three,
we're not Christians.
Aw, this is minor details, bro.
It'll be easy.
We'll go swimming in the lake,
we'll eat some s'mores,
and sing Christmas carols
by the fire.
You are a complete moron.
Well, sorry,
I just thought...
there's 24 hours in a day,
five days of camp,
that's... that's one--
Wait, Tyler, that's 120 hours,
all in one week.
Plus, we'll be getting hours
while we're literally sleeping.
Sounds good, Becky. Yes.
Monday morning
is absolutely perfect.
We look forward to meeting
with him.
Okay. All right.
God bless.
Boom.
We have got an interview
with the pastor.
- [Tyler] Let's go.
- [Grayson] All right.
Tyler, in order
to make this work,
we really gotta do our homework.
- Yeah. Okay.
- We should go to church.
Sunday. Yes.
We can't go to Redemption.
Obviously,
we don't want any run-ins
with the camp staff, so--
- That's good thinking, bro.
- Yeah.
Porkchop.
Look up churches near me.
Permission to speak, sir?
- Yeah.
- Granted.
All right.
Westside Baptist Church.
No.
- United Methodist Church?
- No. No. No.
It's gotta be one of those
with a ridiculous one word name.
Lighthouse?
Perfect. Yes. Okay.
We go figure out
how they do things,
study what they say,
how they talk.
We gotta act nice.
All Christians act overly nice.
Permission to stop cleaning, sir.
- No.
- We'll blend right in.
My family went to church
when I was little.
Trust me.
In my defense, we only used
to go on Christmas and Easter.
Is that a coffee shop?
Looking good, brothers.
Are you guys missionaries?
- No.
- Yeah.
Uh, okay.
Well, praise God.
unsettling music
[traffic noise]
[crowd screams on screen]
[thunder claps]
Well, Lighthouse,
how we doing today?
[applauds]
One more time.
How are we doing today?
[applauds]
My name is Zion.
I am the lead pastor here.
But more importantly,
I've been married to that
beautiful woman right there
for over 16 years
and she is only getting hotter. -[all laugh]
- Whooh!
- All right. Relax, everybody.
We are married. It's fine.
Do you know
how much I love you?
audience: Yes.
Not as much as Jesus,
but I'm doing my best.
If your Bible's falling apart,
chances are your life ain't.
Come on, so good.
Now church isn't a building,
but I am excited to announce
the launch of our new campus.
Let's hear it.
[applauds]
I'm gonna be honest
and vulnerable.
My life verse, that's easy.
[Matthew 6] 33. You know it.
- I don't watch the news.
- Yes.
I read the news.
The good news.
I have a heart for Africa.
And when God calls,
are you gonna answer?
Or just send Him
the voice mail?
Tim... Tebow.
Just go ahead
and bow your heads.
If you feel the spirit calling
on you right now,
go ahead and raise your hand.
Wow, there's so many hands
going up in the room right now.
Wow. This is incredible.
So many hands.
Lets go
Feeling the [indistinct]
Is never gonna let me go
Cause thats for the taking
Come on, come on, lets go
[phone alarm ringing]
music fades
Oh, shoot.
Okay. All right.
playful, swag music
Oh. Hey, brother.
Didn't think you
was gonna make it.
What are you wearing?
Oh, uh, this?
This is--this is trendy.
Those look like
my little sister's pants.
- They are.
- I'm gonna kill you.
Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
Look at what you're wearing.
What is this, a job interview?
Yes! Tyler, that's exactly
what this is.
Take off the ridiculous
necklace.
Um, it's a giving key.
It says brave.
It should say idiot.
[Jenna] See you. Bye.
mysterious music
Dibs.
Um, guys. Hey. Hi.
Um, Pastor Tom's ready for you.
Hi, Tyler.
Hi.
[door opens]
I'm sorry to make you wait, boys.
Thank you. Thank you.
Peace be with you, Father.
You can just call me Tom.
Please. Let's just get
to it, okay?
All right.
[clears throat]
Tom, is that your wife
up there?
It is.
Been married 22 years.
Wow. You two make
a great couple, sir.
- She's beautiful.
- And she's only getting hotter.
Well, you both have
very impressive resumes.
Tell me, have either of you
worked with kids before?
Oh, yeah, of course.
Last year, I was a volunteer
basketball coach
for the local middle school, so...
That's a great way
to give back.
Yes, sir.
Tyler, how about you,
you ever work with kids?
Oh! Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Um, well no,
but I love kids a lot.
Not in a weird way though.
[nervous chuckle]
What's your giving key say?
[gasps] Why, thanks for asking
about my giving key, Tom.
Oh, brave. I like that.
Can you tell me a little bit
about your walk, Tyler?
My walk? My walk is fast.
- Fast?
- But not too fast.
Nah, his walk is steady.
- Steady.
- Yeah. Yeah.
Okay.
Well, that's--thats good.
You know, some people say
that a life of faith
isn't a sprint.
It's a marathon.
Grayson, do you agree?
I--I--I would say that.
Yes. Yeah, I agree. Yeah.
But, you know, I would
also disagree in that
if you're going to run a race,
you should run as fast
as you can.
Interesting answer.
Tyler, we--we should show Tom
the video.
Oh, ye--yes. [...].
You gotta see that.
It's--it's just incredible.
Now stand up and walk!
[all sobbing, gasping on phone]
J-E-S-U-S! J-E-S-U-S! JESUS!
Wow, guys.
That is incredible. Ha-ha.
Faith really
does move mountains, Tom.
Mm. Come on.
So good. So good.
Mm-hm.
You know, guys, I have to admit,
I was not sure what to expect when you walked in here.
But, well, you actually
kinda remind me of myself
when I was younger.
Thank you, sir.
That means so much.
And, Tom, listen,
I'm gonna be honest
and vulnerable with you.
You know, I think both of us
really agree
that we just feel a calling
to be counselors at this camp.
I mean, serving others
is just what we do.
After all, Tom,
every morning we wake up
and we ask ourselves...
whimsical music
What would Jesus do?
upbeat music
Uh, I got you.
Listen, boys.
Where are your guys'
permission slips?
[chuckles] Just kidding.
I'm Dallas.
You must be Tyler and Grayson. Ha-ha.
Here are your camp tees.
Pretty cool. Right?
Designed them myself.
Philip, over here.
Oh. Hi, boys.
Hope you brought
your water bottles
because I would hate for you
to get thirsty
on this trip, Tyler.
[Dallas] All right,
youth leaders.
Let's get the rest
of these bags on the bus,
and then it is all aboard.
Choo-choo.
Hey, let me give you a hand
with this.
Oh, thank you.
You know what?
That's a little heavy.
I'm gonna let you take that.
Wow. What a gentleman.
Yeah. This is more my speed.
- Oh.
- I'm Grayson.
Jenna.
You know, if you're just
gonna take the pillows,
maybe your friend
can come give me a hand.
Him? No.
You do not want his help.
He lifts with his back.
It's a recipe for disaster.
Mm. He seems to be doing fine.
You know what?
Let me help you with this bag.
Thank you.
[bag clatters, clanks]
I'm gonna stick
with the pillows.
[soft chuckle]
I take it you're one of our
new counselors?
No. No.
I'm a camper, actually.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah, really.
I'm just tall for my grade.
You know, the doctor says
I'm gonna be, like, eight feet.
- [indistinct]--
- Is that so?
Yeah. You are so pretty.
- Wow. Um, that was really--
- Honest?
I was going to say forward.
Yeah. I [stammers]
I--I kinda just came out.
I mean, you are very,
very beautiful, though.
[Tom] Hey, Jenna.
Could you please help Becky
get the rest of the kids
on the bus?
Oh, sure thing, Dad.
Nice to meet you, Grayson.
Thank you.
Make sure you lift
with your legs there, son.
We wouldn't want any
of our leaders getting hurt.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Yeah. I--I will literally lift with my leg.
Yeah.
I'll see you on the bus.
Yeah.
Hey, sorry about my dad.
He can be a little protective.
Nah, didn't even notice.
Is this seat taken?
Oh, actually,
we're supposed to sit
with one of the campers.
Abby's just in the bathroom.
Okay. Let me see
if I can find your guy.
Oh, there he is.
His name is Patrick.
Patrick.
You're gonna love him.
He's just the biggest ball
of energy.
Ha-ha. [whispers]
Just perfect.
Hi. I'm Patrick.
You wanna hear me make
fart noises with my legs?
[fart noises]
[chuckles] Okay. Do wanna play
the question game?
- Not really--
- Okay. I'll go first.
Would you rather be
a dog with no legs
or a fish with no fins? Okay.
Would you rather smell like
a foot or look like a foot?
No. Wait.
I've got another one.
What if you had no eyes--
Okay, so, Tyler,
your guy is right there.
- Shadow.
- [Patrick] Okay.
Um... uh...
what's your favorite number?
Okay. Wait.
I've got another one.
- Would you rather, um--
- [Tyler] What's up, man?
[Patrick] smell like an onion or pepperoni?
- Okay. Wait. What?
- What you playin?
- You never heard of it.
- Try me.
[Patrick] Parking space with
no parking zone or parking up--
Lone State chapter one.
Mm. Did you make it
past the zombie army
- on the old Alton Bridge yet?
- Not yet.
Let me show you then, man.

The world,
the world, the world
Is everyone excited for camp?
[applauding]
Is everyone excited for camp?
[shouts] Yeah.
[clapping]
Yeah.
It's incredible.
On the first day
that this camp opened,
the founders lit
a very special torch
to symbolize Christ
as the light of the world.
The founders' flame
has been passed down
from generation to generation,
from torch to torch
for a hundred years.
And the flame they lit that day
is the very same flame you see burning right there today.
So that each
and every one of you
is part of that
special tradition.
How awesome is that?
Come on.
[applauds]
That is cool.
And as most of you know,
the camp always comes to a close
with the Everything Dance Skit.
This tradition has been
around for 40 years,
and I remember
the first time I saw it.
I was sitting
right down there.
I was your age,
and I was with my camp leader.
[distant bell ringing]
Oh-ho-ho.
That is the dinner bell,
which means it's time to eat.
But before we head up there,
would someone mind praying
for us?
Tyler, how about you?
Huh?
Would you mind praying
for us, please?
Sure. Sure. Yeah.
[clears throat]
[muttering] Our Father...
Out loud?
[kids giggling]
Oh, out loud.
I--yes, out loud. Uh-huh.
As a matter of fact,
come on up here.
Come on.
[clears throat]
playful, tense music
Oh.
Our father,
who does art in heaven,
hello be your name.
Thy kingdom come,
thy will--
thy will be done on, uh--
Everybody now.
On earth as it is in heaven.
Excuse me there.
That went pretty well.
- Does art in heaven?
- It was close.
You're unbelievable.
You better not blow this for us.
[Jenna] Grayson, wait up.
Hey, guys.
- Hey.
- What's up?
Tyler, you were about to go
look for Shadow, weren't you?
I don't know. I'm pretty sure
he's headed to dinner.
Uh, yeah. Yep. I was.
[shouts] Shadow. Yep.
Sorry about him.
He's a little excited
to be here.
He's hilarious.
You guys seem really close.
Yeah. Yeah. I mean,
I pulled him under my wing
back in his freshman year,
and we've just kind of been
best friends ever since.
- So what's up?
- Oh, right.
I wanted to let you know
that skit rehearsals
are tomorrow at seven a.m.
Oh, okay.
Yeah. Sounds good.
Okay.
- Wait. Why?
- Oh, that Everything Skit
is Patrick's favorite part
of the camp.
Usually, it's just
the counselors who do it,
but I figured
it would mean a lot to him
if he could help out,
so I'm gonna make him
assistant director.
Oh, so I guess
that makes me the director.
No. That makes you
the assistant
to the assistant director,
which makes me the director.
So I'm--I'm the assistant
to the assistant?
- Mm-hm.
- Got it.
Seven a.m. Don't be late.
[overlapping chatter]
up-tempo music
[crowd claps in rhythm]
Oh, the night is falling
Oh, the feelings falling
Well, hello there, everyone.
I'm Craig and this is...
Meg!
And we are your
Certified Morale Booster.
Yeah!
We're just two
fun loving people from...
Minnesota.
Here to get your morals.
Toong! Toong!
- [trills] Let's go.
- What do you say, Craig?
I think that's a great idea,
Meg.
And a great way to do that
is to use these golden pipes
of ours
and sing at the top
of our lungs.
Did you say sing?
[gasps] This is a repeat
after me song.
A what?
A repeat after me song.
Three, two, one.
[sings]
The alligator is my friend.
[sings]
And he can be yours too.
- And he can be yours too.
- And he can be yours too.
[sings]
If only you would understand.
[sings]
That hes got feelings too.
- That hes got feelings too.
- That hes got feelings too.
Yeah!
[all applauding]
Great. Give it up
for yourselves!
Yeah, come on.
[all applauding]
[laughs]
[insects chirping]
[Tyler] Pick up the antidote.
[Shadow]
I can't pick up the antidote.
[Tyler]
Well, just go to the left, okay?
And turn right.
Yeah. Hold on.
[Dallas] Oh, yeah.
No. Sorry, boys.
No electronic devices.
[Shadow] What?
[Tyler] Come on, man.
He was just about
to get the cure.
Okay.
Well, you can get the cure
at the end of the week,
all right?
That's right, boys.
No phones, tablets,
e-Bibles, nothing.
Wait. I can keep my phone
though, right?
Gray daddy.
Leaders lead. Right?
That's why
we're called leaders.
So, no, you can't keep
your phone.
You know where you can
put it though?
In the lock boxes
like everyone else.
[exhales]
[sighs]
[Tyler snoring]
[muttering] Becky,
you silly goose.
[giggling]
[birds chirping]
[Dallas] But soft!
What light through yonder
window breaks?
It is the East,
and Juliet is the sun.
See, how she leans her cheek
upon that hand!
Oh, that I was a glove
upon that hand,
so that I might touch
that cheek.
Dallas, off the stage.
Well, Shakespeare himself said
All the world's a stage
so technically...
Yes ma'am.
Alright, everyone.
Why don't we get started?
Now, I've already assigned
everyone their roles
and responsibilities.
Patrick, you--
[door opens]
Nice of you to join us.
Oh, sorry I'm late.
I didn't know you were
start right at seven.
Patrick, you are going to be
assistant director.
- What? Really?
- Yup.
I have some really
important tasks for you.
Dallas, you are gonna
be our stage manager.
All right!
Let there be light. Right?
And of course, you guys
are gonna be our dancers
like last year.
Okay, everyone, on your feet.
Let's start warming up.
Patrick, you and Grayson
go through the costume box
and plot everything
on this list, okay?
Hey, how long is this gonna go?
Do I have time
to go grab a coffee?
Okay, everyone, from the top.
[exhales]
uplifting music
Ooo, cookies.
You want me
to grab you something.
No, no, I'm good.
[overlapping chatter]
[chuckles] She is fearfully
and wonderfully made,
am I right?
What?
Let me give you some advice
about her.
She's not really in a season
to be pursued right now.
- Oh, okay.
- Yeah. [sighs]
Told me so herself.
Today?
Yeah. Well, more like over
the last two years.
Repeatedly.
You just gotta respect a girl
who's so committed
to seeking Jesus first.
[giggles]
[Dallas sighs]
But that is a land flowing
with milk and honey.
Am I right? [chuckles]
[overlapping chatter]
[coffee pouring]
I'm--Im sorry,
did you want some coffee?
Are you asking me
on a coffee date?
What? No, I was just asking
if you wanted--
- No?
- No, yeah.
No, Tyler, obviously.
That was a joke. [giggles]
Hey, so like don't think this
is weird or anything, right?
But I was doing
my listening prayer
and God gave me
this image of a tree.
And then He showed me
a second giant beautiful tree,
and their roots were just
intertwined down there,
and it made them actually
just one big tree.
And then He told me
you were my husband.
[blows kiss]
[Pastor Tom] Okay, campers.
For our next activity,
I'm gonna need one lucky
leader's help
because it's time
for a counselor makeover.
[applauding]
Alright. I've got
all the leaders' names
in this bowl,
and I'm not looking.
And our lucky leader
for the day is...
- What did you just say?
- [laughing]
Grayson.
[applauding]
Grayson. Come on up here.
No, Im good. Im good.
- man: Whooh!
- [Tyler] Grayson.
[in unison]
Grayson. Grayson. Grayson.
Grayson. Grayson. Grayson.
rock music
[dramatic sting]
For our last pick, hm... Patrick.
- Yes!
- What?
A...great pick, Becky.
Go us.
That was a close one.
You almost had Isaiah.
We wouldn't have even been
on the same team.
Lets go. Lets go.
Well, that could
be the difference
- between us winning and losing.
- Right.
Grayson,
it's not about winning,
its about having fun.
- Yeah!
- And thats were gonna do.
[Tyler]
Well go down in history!
team blue:
Well go down in history!
Team Blue will take
the victory!
- [Tyler] Team Blue!
- other kids: Team Blue!
Okay, look. Becky,
if its not about winning,
then we wouldn't care
about capturing the flag.
We wouldn't be keeping score. But we are keeping score,
so we do care about winning, right?
Yeah!
Yeah, not with Patrick
on our team.
You should have picked Isaiah.
- I'll be right back.
- Mm-hm.
That's not cool, dude.
Patrick, come on, man.
Who cares what those guys think?
Go away.
Look, Patrick, kids are mean.
I mean they're gonna make fun
of you for anything they can.
Okay.
This is a repeat after me song.
I said, this is a repeat
after me song.
Patrick is awesome.
Patrick is awesome.
[sings] He is my friend.
[sings] He is my friend.
[sings]
And I've got his back.
[sings]
And I've got his back.
Oh.
touching music
Hey, follow me.
soft piano music
[overlapping chatter]
Ah! I think if they're not back in the next 58 seconds
they forfeit. Right?
Just saying.
Fifty-five, 54, 53, 52, fifty--
You're motoring
What's your price for flight
In finding Mister Right
You'll be all right tonight
[whistle blowing]
Theres no place

Joyous to recipe

Good vibes, all we need
Uh-huh, uh-huh
Anytime you can lean on me

Feel the love and its all

So were all together now
We are together now
We are all together now
So were all together now
Pstt...
Becky, I'm right here.
Just tell me.
Just--just tell me.
Okay. There's three people,
and we have to go around them
to get the flag.
- Thanks for the update.
- You're welcome.
I have a plan.
[determined drums]
Attack!
Oh, no.
...taaack!
Is this even legal?
All is fair in love
and war, Tyler.
Love and war.
Oh. Sorry.
romantic music
Our jail is back that way.
You can, go ahead
and hand me the flag.
What flag?
uplifting music
[Grayson]
Alright. Here we go.
On our way out.
Yep. We will see you guys
in a little bit.
Thank you. Alright.
Have a good one.
Ay-yi-yi. Okay.
Hello.
[clears throat]
[Howard] Hey, Grayson.
It's Howard.
I got the Scotch.
You certainly will fit in
around here.
We'll send over
the paperwork next week.
Then once we get that back
from you,
you're just
a background check away
from being good to go here
at Grossman and Birch.
Congrats, Grayson.
Okay. Okay.
This is great.
man [o.s.]:
Hey yo, Graydawg!
We miss you, bro!
Vegas is crazy.
The moose is loose, baby!
[Vince] Dont worry,
we'll throw a party
when were all back!
Hey, how are the chicks
at church camp?
I wanna know. Who are you?
[chuckles] Lets see here
[phone pings]
What up, boys?
Hope you guys aren't having
too much fun without me.
By the way,
there is one girl here
who is a legit 10 out of 10.
I mean an absolute--
- Whatcha doing?
- Oh, hello.
Nothing. Nothing. Just...
You're not supposed
to be on your phone.
- Maybe I should go tell Dallas.
- Oh, okay. No, no, no, no, no.
You could, but then that
would make you a tattletale.
And you know, no one likes
a tattletale, right?
Yeah, but that makes you
a tattletale
because no one likes you.
Okay, listen kid.
If you think you're gonna walk
all over me this week,
you got another thing
coming for you.
So if I were you, I'd go ahead
and just keep that little
10-year-old mouth shut, okay?
- I'm 12.
- Oh, great.
Then let's start
acting like it, yeah?
Come on, let's go.
We're late for dinner.
I said let's go. Come on.
upbeat music
Im filled with sunshine
[kids chanting] Chug, chug, chug, chug, chug, chug!
Yeaaahhh!
upbeat music continues
upbeat music fades
[Dallas] Hey. Yo. G-man.
[exhales]
Just wrapped up my daily Ds.
You know how it be.
There's just nothing better
than quiet time
on top of a mountain
with the king of kings.
Am I right? Shebloink.
Oh, totally. Yeah.
- Hey, Dallas.
- Hey, bud.
Dope shirt. Yeah.
Listen, Patrick, I gotta have
a quick little chatski
with the Gray-doggy here,
so maybe you can...
help Jenna
with those props, huh?
- Okay.
- Awesome.
What's up, Dallas?
You tell me.
I don't think there's anything
to tell you.
Sure about that?
I'm onto you.
- You are?
- Oh, yeah. Big time.
You might--you might think
that you could fool
Pastor Tom and Jenna.
No one's gonna pull a wool
over this sheep's eyes, okay?
- Dallas--
- [gibberish] Stop.
Just admit it,
you're falling for Jenna.
Oh, that. [chuckles]
Yeah. Dude, no.
We--we're--we
are just friends.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.
Tell me something, all right?
Man to man.
Are you and Jenna...
talking?
Talking?
Yes, talking.
We--I mean,
we've--we've talked.
- Sure. Yeah.
- [gags]
I knew it. [coughs]
Yeah, I knew it.
Fine. That's great.
Well, have you had a DTR?
A DTR?
To find the relationship?
I just wanna make sure
that you're guarding her heart.
Yeah. Of course.
Yes. It's guarded.
Okay. Good.
You know, because you can't stop
a girl from falling,
but you can keep her
from stumbling.
Hey.
Sniffing when I'm stepping in?
I think I am. Yep.
[exhales] [chuckles] Great.
Good. Whooh. Awesome.
Oh, Gray daddy,
I am praying for you.
Not right now.
Gotta go be a manager,
stage manager,
but still important.
- Yeah.
- And I'm needed. So... okay.
[footsteps receding]
[Becky] Okay, everybody,
it's looking good.
Don't forget that these
are going home to your parents
or you can give it
to somebody you love.
Let's put some effort
into it, yeah?
Tucker! Seriously,
hands to yourself.
Thank you.
[giggles]
Do you like it?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's--that's--
that's great, bud.
Is that you and your dad?
I don't have a dad.
It's you and me.
Oh wow. That's, um...
that's really nice, Patrick.
What'd you paint, Shadow?
Darkness.
Well, you nailed it.
Absolutely nailed it. Come on.
Okay.
Whenever you guys are ready,
bring them up here
so we can get them glazed.
Just set them right there.
[mug shatters]
[Patrick] No!
Tucker,
what is your problem, dude?
[Tucker] It was just an accident.
It's ruined.
Patrick, have you ever heard
of Kintsugi?
- No.
- Okay.
Well, it's this art form
that takes broken pottery,
and they repair it.
They glue it all together
with gold.
And you know what
the result is?
I don't know.
Pottery is even more precious
than it was before.
In fact, it's actually
all these little cracks
that make it so beautiful.
So here's what we're gonna do.
We're gonna take this mug,
and we're gonna fix it together,
and it's gonna be even better
than if it was never broken
at all.
Okay?
Okay.
[Grayson] Alright. Come on.
Let's pick up the pieces.
And the storm is just raging.
I mean, the wind is howling.
The waves are crashing
on the deck of the boat,
and the disciples,
they're like, Whoa. Whoa.
[Tyler laughing]
And they wake him up.
"Jesus. Jesus."
Now does he look at them
and growl,
"Why did you wake me up?"
- No.
- No way.
No. He calmly asks them,
"Why are you afraid,
O you of little faith?"
You see, the Bible,
it doesn't promise us
no more storms. No.
The Bible promises us
that we have a savior
so that when
those storms do come,
he will bring us peace.
Now can I get an amen on that?
kids: Amen.
Alright. We're gonna
take the next few minutes
and--and have a time
of worship together,
and--and as we do,
I want every single one of you
to take a pen
and write down a lie
that you've been believing
about yourself.
And when you're ready,
you can bring it down
and throw that in the fire.
Because there's something
special that takes place
when we bring those
hidden things into the light.
It's almost like
they lose power over us.
So whatever
you're carrying right now,
go ahead and bring it
into the light.
I wandered down
the wide road
Chased what wouldnt last
Runnin from my failures
The ghosts
that haunt my past
Tried too hard to hurt him
But still the shadows play
But even in my darkness
You were the light
that stayed
And I wore my pride
like armor
A smile to bury the pain
Trying hard
to earn redemption
To climb my way to grace
But love is not a trophy
And the swift
don't win the race
But even in my blindness
You were the light
that stayed
Mm, yeah
You were the last one
standing
When everyone had gone
The lighthouse shinin
When I felt so far from home
Didn't find you in the glory
All the man-made accolades
No. You found me
in the darkness
And you were the light
that stayed
You were the light
that stayed
[Tyler] Grayson. Hey, Grayson.
Bro. Hey.
I've been thinking and...
we've gotta come clean, bro.
- What?
- No. No. No.
Hear me out.
It's like they were saying.
If--if--if there's darkness,
uh--no, no.
Wait, wait. If--if things
are in the darkness,
it--it will--it--what the--
what's--I don't know.
It sounded better when the
singer guy was saying it.
- Okay. Listen to me.
- But--
You do not,
under any circumstances,
say a word about this, okay?
Okay, I just think
it would be--
No, no, no. Tyler.
Don't be an idiot here.
You say something,
we get kicked out.
You hear me?
Yeah.
I hear you loud and clear.
All right.
pensive music
[sighs]
[Jenna] Great rehearsal
today, everyone.
Tonight is the night,
so just enjoy the rest
of your day
and be back here 07:30 sharp
for the big show.
[Dallas] Okey-dokey.
That's enough gang.
[Grayson]
Whats got you all smiley?
- [Dallas] Hey.
- The skit.
Aren't you excited?
Uh, pumped.
Hey, Patrick,
why don't you take off?
I'm gonna hang out
for a second. Okay?
- Okay.
- Alright.
[Dallas] Hey, hey. Johnny.
Hey, didn't your dad
ever teach you
not to bite your nails?
Uh, bad habit, I know.
- No, let me see.
- No, Grayson, stop.
No, no, no. Let me see.
It can't be that bad.
Grayson, I said stop!
Jenna, I--I'm sorry.
I was--I was just kidding.
Its fine.
It's just embarrassing.
You should go.
I--I have things
I need to finish here.
Okay.
Jenna. Jenna.
You got a sec?
Not really, Dallas.
Oh, perfect. Okay.
[groans] Scooch over a bit.
[exhales] Okay. Look.
[clears throat] I'm not here
to judge anybody,
but I do feel like I need
to warn you about Grayson.
Warn me about what?
There's something off
with him, Jenna.
He's hiding something,
and I don't know what it is,
but I don't think
he's as close to the Lord
as he says that he is.
And I overheard him
and Tyler talking,
and they were saying
something about--
Wait. You were spying on them?
Yes. No.
No, no, no, no.
I was going on my nightly
prayer walk,
and I overheard one of them say,
Oh, they'd get kicked out
if we knew.
Something.
Okay. And what does this have
to do with me?
Jenna, I don't want you
to get hurt.
You deserve better.
I think I can judge
that by myself,
but thank you, Dallas.
Okay. Well, just be careful.
He is not who you want
him to be.
[sighs]
[distant kids chatter]
[footsteps]
What's bugging you?
Nothing.
I saw you at breakfast.
You only had two helpings.
[sighs] I can't really talk
about it.
Tyler,
I know who you really are.
What? You do?
Yeah, bro.
You're a nerd.
I mean, on the surface,
you act like this big, cool guy,
but deep down, youre actually
kind of a dork.
Wait. What?
No. I'm not.
And for some reason,
you act a lot dumber
than you actually are.
I mean, no idiot
would have known
how to get past the zombie army
on the old Alton Bridge.
So why do you put on this mask
of someone you're not?
When I was in high school,
I was just like this scrawny kid
who was really into baking,
you know?
Yeah.
And when I got to college,
I leaned into being the funny, crazy guy,
and people treated me differently
because I was the life
of the party.
And as more people saw me
as the cool guy,
more I acted like him.
Then--
You couldn't tell
the difference
between the real you
and this character?
Yeah.
How do you know
all this about me?
You're not the only one
wearing a mask.
You're one deep
little dude, Shadow.
Can I ask you something?
Go ahead.
Your real name
isn't Shadow, right?
- It's Finn.
- Mm. Finn.
Not dark enough for you.
[chuckles]
Well, I dig it. Finn.
Hey, Tyler.
Sup?
Thanks for making
this camp fun for me.
Glad you enjoyed it.
[Becky] Tyler.
Tyler. Tyler.
Hey, Shadow.
Have you seen Tyler?
Nope. Sorry.
That's so weird
because someone just told me
he was at the dock.
[water gurgles]
Okay. Well, if you see him,
will you tell him
that I'm saving him
a seat next to me for the skit?
Sure.
[Becky] Tyler?
[water splashes]
[coughing]
Good stuff.
[distant chatter]
[crickets chirping]
I come with a peace offering.
Thank you. [chuckles]
I picked them myself.
I can tell.
Well, I didn't know what to do
with such short notice, so.
Mm.
- Well, here he comes.
- Who?
Smooth Grayson.
Smooth Grayson?
Yes. Every time
you're about to be cool,
you get a serious look
on your face.
Like this.
Well, this was fun.
See you.
I'm--I'm--I'm kidding.
Kind of. [giggles]
[humming amazing Grace]
tense music
[phone keys clucking]
[Dallas clears throat]
[laughing on phone]
Pouring one out for you guys.
Yeah. Go, go, go, go.
[overlapping laughter
and screaming on phone]
[Jenna] So, wanna play
the question game?
[chuckles]
You sound like Patrick.
Who do you think taught him?
Okay. You go first.
Okay. Um...
when did you first
start following Jesus?
Whoa, starting off
with the heavy hitters, huh?
Let's do something
a little easier,
like, um... favorite food.
Fine, okay.
Let's meet in the middle.
How about favorite
birthday ever?
Oh, wow, that's tough.
Um...
eleventh.
You?
Wait, why was it your favorite?
That wasn't the question.
Well, it is now.
Why was it your favorite?
No. Pass.
- You can't pass.
- I just did.
And what is your favorite
birthday, Jenna?
Fine. Uh...
- sixteenth.
- Hm.
My parents bought me this...
- 1998 Honda Civic.
- Wow.
It was a piece,
but I loved it.
You know,
you do kinda strike me
as the girl that
would name her car.
Are there people
who don't?
- Wait. What did you name it?
- Rupert.
Of course.
- Wow.
- [chuckles]
Okay. Now--now
I wanna know the why.
Okay. Um... well,
I hit the game winning double
in my Little League
championship game.
- Mm. Of course you did.
- Yeah.
Ripped that right up
left field line and...
yeah, I just remember my dad
running up to home plate
and just scooping me up
in his arms,
and... I don't know,
I think that's just the
most proud I've ever seen him.
Are you two close?
Ah, no. Not really.
I'm sorry.
No, it's fine.
What about you?
You and your dad seem close.
Yeah. No, we--we are.
But?
It's just my dad's this
larger than life guy,
and living in his shadow
can be tough at times.
I sometimes struggle with
how much of my faith
is based on what I believe
and how much of it is
because it's what he believes.
Does that make sense?
Yeah.
You know, my dad always put
such a huge emphasis on success
that success
just meant everything.
And, you know, I think it
kinda shaped me into who I am.
And who are you, Grayson?
You know, I think I'm still
trying to figure that out.
Are you hiding something?
What? No. No.
Why--why do you ask that?
Nothing. Never mind.
It's just--
No, it's just what?
It's just Dallas
might have mentioned
a conversation he overheard.
Okay, I think Dallas
is making things up
because he's jealous.
Oh, is that so?
And what might he be jealous of?
Us.
romantic music swells, fades
I hope I'm not interrupting.
[clears throat] No. No.
We're, uh, we're just--
I was showing her these flowers
- and I just picked them.
- Cool.
Yeah. Club's starting, so...
- Oh. Gotta go.
- Yes. Yeah.
- Thanks.
- Gotta go.
- Okay.
- All right. Thank you.
After you.
Uh, Grayson.
Quick question.
We really should get going
to the clubhouse.
It'll be quick.
Are your ancestors from Greece?
Uh, Dallas, I'm really not
in the mood for this right now.
Because I'm still trying
to figure out why you and Tyler
were wearing togas on campus.
[Grayson on video]:
Go, go, go, go.
Okay, that doesn't
prove anything.
Yeah. No, you're right.
But it didn't take long for me
to find about 10 other unflattering videos.
- [laughs]
- [laughs]
That was smart that you changed
your account to private.
Tyler did not get the memo.
Let's just say that this paints a very vivid picture
of the real Grayson.
See you out there.
[sighs]
[camping chatter and laughter]
Dallas, we need to talk.
About what?
You know about what.
Have you said anything
to anyone?
Grayson, I know this skit
isn't important to you,
but it is to Jenna,
all right,
so maybe let's
have this conversation after.
Yeah?
Grayson, where have you been?
I need to get the props ready.
Come on, I need your help.
I don't have time for this.
Do you know where Tyler is?
I can't find my measuring tape.
Grayson, do you know
where it--
Grayson! Grayson!
Just figure it out, Patrick.
Oh.
Sorry.
I'll just ask Jenna for it.
Patrick.
Tyler. Tyler. Come here.
[Tyler] What?
[Grayson] Dallas knows.
- He what?
- He knows.
He found out because of
your stupid public Instagram,
- you idiot.
- Hey, don't touch me.
No. No. No.
This is all your fault.
How is this my fault?
How are we doing,
Camp Burning Bush?
[all applauding]
[Pastor Tom] Yeah. Yes.
In a few moments,
we are going to experience something very special.
The Everything Skit
has been the grand finale
of this camp for decades,
and this year is going
to be the best one yet
because we are celebrating
our one hundredth anniversary.
[Tyler over speaker]:
How is this all my fault?
[Grayson over speaker]:
We wouldn't even be in this mess
if you hadn't suggested
we do a million hours
of community service.
And whose idea was it
to come to this stupid camp
in the first place?
Now everyone's gonna know
that we're lying
about being Christians.
[Tyler over speaker]:
You know what, Grayson?
I'm done with you.
Don't--don't walk away
from me.
Hey, I said don't touch me.
[stage light thuds]
[flame crackles]
Everybody back up, back up.
Back away from the stage.
[all screaming]
Its gonna burn!
[all panic screaming]
somber music
somber operatic music
So what'd you want to talk
to us about?
[Pastor Tom]
Oh, is this funny to you?
Because somebody could
have been seriously hurt.
I wanted to help you out,
give you a shot,
and you completely blew it.
So when'd you figure it out?
Well, Tyler here bowed
first thing in the interview.
You didn't think that
was a dead giveaway?
And don't sit there
like Slick Rick either.
Faith really
does move mountains, Tom.
Then why'd you even let us
come here in the first place?
When I said that you guys reminded me of me
when I was younger,
it wasn't a compliment.
When I was a little older
than you,
about 25, 26,
I was in a bad place.
And one night,
I heard a voice.
And that voice said,
Tom, this is not who you are.
You are going
to change your life.
And I didn't know who, what,
or where that voice came from,
but I knew it was right.
I knew it.
And so the next morning,
I sat down with my best friend,
and he said something
I will never forget.
"Every man that walks
into a brothel
is searching for God."
And I realized
I'd been searching for God,
but I'd been looking
in all the wrong places.
On the outside,
I was the life of the party,
but on the inside,
I was a total mess.
Pack your bags, boys.
You're done here.
[twenty Something [stripped
Sessions]" performed by Nightly]
Talk you down
Wasted on the couch
Say what you're feeling now
Don't hold back
Spell it out
Spare me your dirty mouth
Whatever is keeping you
here now
Don't let it fade
Caught in a web
of your memories
Like the way we would talk,
we were 17
But I'm losing the feeling that's keeping me here now
Here now, now
[Vince] ...all the rules.
Thank you. Thank you.
Can we get some
real competition?
Also, this is gonna get
a little more.
This is the game right here.
Hey, what's up, boys?
Bring back any hotties
from Jesus Camp?
Hey. Hey. Hey.
Okay. This is game.
Ready? Ready?
This is game, actually.
[all screaming happily]
Don't freak out,
don't stop now, babe
We're only twenty-something
I don't know, man.
Maybe we could grab a few hours
volunteering somewhere else.
all: Drink, drink,
drink, drink.
I know there's a few soup
kitchens downtown we could hit,
but...
I don't know if Montgomery's gonna give us those hours
we did do at camp or not,
so let's see.
It's over, Grayson.
It's not over, Tyler.
Look, I'm--I'm not
gonna be expelled.
I can't be expelled. Okay?
What, you think I'm still
gonna get this job
if I get kicked out of school? -You ruined camp, Grayson.
We trashed the skit,
we crushed Patrick and Finn,
and all you're worried about
is being golfing buddies
with some rich dudes
in New York?
What else do you want me to do, Tyler, sell muffins?
Waste my money
on dumb t-shirts?
I thought you said
it was a good idea.
That's just because
I felt sorry for you.
[distant party chatter]
Wow.
[gentle music]
Grayson! Grayson!
Grayson! Grayson! Grayson!
Grayson! Grayson!
Grayson! Grayson!
Aahh!
[shoe thumps]
gentle music
[paper rustling]
[breathes deeply]
You're my best friend,
you know that?
Yeah.
- Bestie for the restie--
- Gimme, gimme, gimme.
Guys, I'm gonna need your help.
Vince, do you still have
that party bus connect?
Yeah, of course.
I'm gonna need one,
and gather the guys.
Moose, you still have all those
Garden of Eden costumes?
- [burps] Duh.
- Okay, grab them.
Porkchop, I'm gonna need
all the tools you can grab,
and then wood.
We're gonna need a lot of wood. -Where am I gonna get wood?
Vince/Grayson:
Figure it out!
Thanks, guys.
You know what, Moose?
Actually, I'm gonna need
those curtains.
Cool. Hey, will you also
been needing my pillowcases?
They match.
No. Has anybody seen Tyler?
- No.
- I haven't seen him.
All right, thanks.
[insects chirping]
Tyler. Hey dude.
You've been sitting
out here all night?
I didn't feel like being
at the house.
You were right.
I've just been thinking
about me.
I've been doing that
for a long time, actually.
Look, I'm putting myself first
and putting
everyone else second.
What I'm trying to say
is I'm...
I'm sorry.
What? Can you say that again?
I didn't get that last part.
It must be the poor acoustics
in the quad or something.
I'm sorry, Tyler.
soft, uplifting music
Grayson Fuller.
Are you actually
apologizing to me?
Hey, look, dude,
you know I'm not good
at this whole apology thing,
but I need you, Tyler.
I need my best friend.
Can you please forgive me?
soft, uplifting music intensifies
[Vince] Hey, lovebirds.
You wanna get a room
or you wanna get on the bus?
[whistles]
Graydawg, its starting
to smell weird in here.
- Come on, let's go.
- We have to hurry.
Hey, can we roll down
the windows in here?
Where are we going?
Come on.
[birds chirping]
[indistinct chatter]
I'm sorry, buddy.
He let us all down.
Yeah.
Hey. We can still have fun together, right?
Yeah. Sure, Dallas.
Hey, yo.
You guys are going
the wrong way.
Dallas, did you know
they changed the bag drop site?
[overlapping chatter]
This is amazing.
Who did all this?
[campers overlapping whisper]
Grayson.
Tyler.
What are you doing here?
Tom, we realized
we messed up.
We wanted to come back
to make it right.
And to say we're sorry
for lying
and for ruining the skit
and for almost
burning down the camp.
And Patrick,
I let you down, man.
You're a good dude,
and I just want you to know
that you've impacted me,
and I'm grateful for that.
But the thing is,
we were in trouble,
and I didn't want
to lose out on a job
because that was the
most important thing to me.
Because I believed that one day,
if I reached the top,
I'd be happy.
Just, uh...
look, I think--I think
what I'm trying to say is, uh--
We are all walking
into a brothel.
What's a brothel?
Oh, it's just a building
filled with--
Metaphors.
It's a building
full of metaphors.
Metaphors for...
for the things that are trying
to replace God in our lives.
[Tyler] Come on.
So good. So good.
Anyways, we ruined
a very special skit last night.
And we built a new stage
with the help of our boys.
bros: To the man!
- [mouths] I love you.
- Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!
I love you.
Tom, if it's okay with you,
we'd love to see that skit.
Well...
what do you say, Jenna?
I say...
let's do it.
Dancers?
[everything
performed by Lifehouse]
Find me here
And speak to me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light
That's leading me
You hold me in your hands
You won't let me fall
You still my heart
And you take my breath away
Would you take me in
Take me deeper now?
And how can I
stand here with you
And not be moved by you?
'Cause you're all I want,
you're all I need
You're everything,
everything
You're all I want,
you're all I need
You're everything,
everything
You're all I want,
you're all I need
You're everything,
everything
You're all I want,
you're all I need
You're everything,
everything
How can I
stand here with you
And not be moved by you?
Would you tell me
how could it be
Any better,
any better than this?
How can I
stand here with you
And not be moved by you?
Would you tell me
How could it be
any better than this?
[all clapping]
You know, you're alright, kid.
You wanna go outside
and play tag?
- Sure.
- Hey, Finn.
[Becky] I know, I know.
Is there something different
about Becky?
playful music
Never mind.
It just--must be the lighting.
[clears throat]
Not bad, Grayson.
Not bad.
Thanks, Dallas.
- I love you, man.
- Okay. Thanks, buddy.
Well, aren't you full
of surprises?
Thank you for everything
you did today.
It meant a lot to the kids.
And me.
It was the least we could do.
But I don't know why you were
so nervous about all this.
I mean,
it was beautiful, Jenna.
Thank you.
Jenna, I--I just wanna say
I'm so sorry.
It's okay.
Well, maybe not okay, but...
- Yeah.
- I do forgive you.
Good.
I know I have a ways to go.
Yeah, that's fair.
[Becky] Because I mean, like...
playful music
Its fine but I love...
That was really fun.
I think this is
[indistinct] this year.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, that would be fun.
[all gasping]
I'm gonna go find Patrick.
Grayson.
We could grab a coffee?
Are you asking me
on a coffee date?
- Maybe.
- Wow.
I hear that's pretty serious
in the Christian world.
Okay. Calm down.
or you're gonna be bumped down
to group game night.
No, no, no. Coffee.
- I'll take coffee.
- Sorry to interrupt but--
you guys gotta come get Tyler.
We're getting married!
[all applauding happily]
- Tyler!
- Becky!
[never Get Used To This by Forrest Frank and Jvke]
I'll never get used to this
This is how I want to live
Forever we'll be singing like,
"Oh"
Walk up out the grave,
yeah, I'm alive now
Told the Devil, "Boy you

[laughs] Wow. Wow. Come on.
Let's give it up
to our amazing worship team.
Yeah. Got some legends up here.
And let's give it up
to our amazing God.
Right? [laughs]
[all applauding, clapping]
That's right.
Well, my name is Dallas
and I am the youth pastor here
at Redemption.
We still need
some more counselors
for our summer missions trip to...
Cancun.
That's right. Cancun.
Absolutely not. No.
I was stuck inside that grave
a long time
Didn't think I'd make it
Through those long nights
But You never late,
You always on time
Remember when
You got me out that?
You got me out that
And now I see Your blessings,
see Your blessings every day
Thankful that Your kingdom's on the way
Angels all around me,
hear them sing like, "Oh"
I'll never get used to this

But soft! What light
through yonder window breaks?
It is the east,
and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun,
and kill the envious moon,
who is already sick
and pale with grief,
that thou her maid,
art far more fair than she.
Be not her maid,
since she is envious.
Her vestal ivory
is but sick and green,
and none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
It is my lady,
oh, it is my love.
- [Jenna] Dallas!
- Oh, that she knew she were.
She speaks,
yet she says nothing.
What of that?
Her eye discourses;
I will answer it.
I am too bold,
'tis not to me she speaks.
Two of the faint stars
in all the heaven,
having some business,
do entreat her eyes
to twinkle in their spheres
till they return.
What if her eyes were there,
they in her head?
The brightness of her cheek
would shame those stars,
as daylight doth a lamp;
so her eyes in heaven,
as through an airy region
would stream so bright
that birds would sing
and think it were not night.
See, as she leans her cheek
upon that hand!
Oh, that I was a glove
upon that hand,
so that I might touch
that cheek.
[coughs] I've always wanted
to be Romeo,
but alas, I'm always
the comedic relief, so...
[beep]
All my life, I've wanted
to be successful,
which is why Grossman and Birch
is the only place for me.
I wanna work
with the best, right?
And this job is next step
to do that.
Look, Howard,
I've learned a lot in college,
not the least of which is this.
Nothing in life
is handed to you. Right?
If you really,
really want something,
you go and you earn it.
[Howard]
Well said, Grayson.
Tell me about one
of your weaknesses.
Hm. One of my weaknesses. Um...
Howard,
I'm not gonna lie to you.
I have got incredibly
skinny calves.
[Howard] [laughs]
You and me both, buddy.
My wife is always trying
to get me to work out.
By the way, Howard, that is
an exquisite vase behind you.
Oh, this?
I just brought this back
from Kyoto.
Do you know much
about Kintsugi pottery?
Oh, of course.
I love Kintsugi.
And you know what I love
about Kintsugi,
I...I...
I love how the artist
repairs the broken pottery
with gold,
rendering a piece
that is even more valuable
than it was before
it was broken.
- Exactly. [chuckles]
Ah.
You know, and rather than
trying to hide the damages,
Kintsugi highlights
the repairs.
I mean, the imperfections
are what make it beautiful.
Wow. I see someone
was paying attention
in art history.
Oh... I did take it
to impress a girl, so.
But if I'm being honest,
I guess I learned
a thing or two.
I like you. [chuckles]
Look, I think you're
a remarkable young man
- and I think you'll fit in--
Oh, thank you.
perfectly here
at Grossman and Birch.
We'll be calling you soon,
but I am confident
I'll be seeing you here
in New York once you graduate.
Thank you, sir. It has been
so great getting to talk to you.
I look forward to hearing
from you soon, all right?
[Howard] All right. Talk soon.
All right.
Well, that went well.
Bro, I think
you pulled that off.
Yep. Only one more thing to do.
Porkchop, I have a task for you.
Whoa. Hey.
Where's the nose?
- Come on.
- Oh. Sorry, sir.
- Thank you. There you go.
- [oinking]
- All right, porky.
- [Tyler] Whoa. There it is.
- [chuckles]
- All right.
I'm gonna need you to order me
a bottle of single malt
to Howard Grossman's office
in New York.
Need something nice.
Overnight it.
Permission to speak, sir.
- [whispers] Granted.
- Granted.
I'm not 21, sir.
Okay? Figure it out.
Sir, legally,
I can't buy alcohol.
He said, figure it out, pledge.
He always looks so scared.
Why he look like
he always gonna cry?
Yo, yo, invincible
You have to plead
on principle
And leave this all behind
Ill wait for [indistinct]
Dont waste my time though
No
Ill wait for [indistinct]
Dont waste my time though
No
All right.
Come on, pledges.
Delta Gamma will be here
any second.
Chop-chop.
The girls are on their way.
Here you go.
Ah, look, you can just throw
the rest of that ice
at the upstairs bar.
There isn't an upstairs bar.
Oh, well, guess what?
Build one.
man:
Bro, you blooming maggot.
Ahhh! Whooo!
[laughing]
Oh. Man, I'm gonna miss this.
I'm gonna miss you, bro.
What am I gonna do next year
when you're gone?
Tyler, you're gonna run
this place, man.
Hey, maybe I'll pop in
for a few parties
every now and then.
What,
all the way from NYC?
Oh, and congrats
on the new job.
It's--it's gotta feel good.
Yeah, man.
It feels great.
It's everything
I worked for, you know?
Yeah. Totally, bro.
Can I ask you something?
Do you think Stud Muffins
is a good idea?
Yeah, man.
Twenty-two grams of protein
in a delicious whole grain
muffin is genius.
Yeah. Thanks, Gray.
That means a lot.
I--I spent a lot of money
on those shirts.
Boy, you did.
Well, come on.
Let's celebrate.
- All right.
- [groans]
Now you know the drill.
Clink. [laughter]
Mm. Mm.
[knock on door]
Delta Gamma.
It's a little
early though, huh?
Arrr!
Officer Montgomery.
Hey. [awkward chuckle]
You know what, we're good
on Girl Scout cookies.
Thanks for stopping by.
Ahoy there, mateys.
You're not throwing
a party tonight, are you?
- Party? Oh.
- Yeah--
I--I--no.
Couldnt be.
pirate pledge: So close to me, booty, we can almost taste it.
You know, that--that--we were--
we're studying for the musical.
- Musical.
- We're a doing musical.
- We're doing a musical.
- I love musicals.
Yeah. [chuckles]
- What's it called?
- Oh.
- Pirates of PennPennsyl--
- P--P--P--
- Pennsylvania.
- Sounds fun.
Let's hear
a little something from it.
- [singing] We are the pirates.
- Pirates of the--
We are the pirates of the ship. -ship.
I don't need to remind you
that your fraternity
is still on probation
for another month.
- Yeah, no.
- Tell you what.
I'm gonna go ahead
and park a couple officers
- outside all night.
- Oh, two.
Okay, so you might wanna call your friends over at Tri Delt
and tell them,
Gotta reschedule this here
- pirate party.
- Actually, it's Delta Gamma.
Okay, well,
let's, no, just, no.
Hey...
don't do anything stupid.
Good night.
[door closes]
All right, pledges,
you heard her,
we can stop setting up.
Man. That sucks.
Yeah, Moose is right.
What are we supposed
to do next?
[Porkchop]
We can actually study-
[gibberish]
Shut it, Porkchop.
Hey. I spent 50 bucks
on this costume.
That costume's fire, bro.
What a waste of a perfectly
good Wednesday night.
[Grayson] Guys, come on.
When one door closes,
we find another door, right?
- Come on.
- Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yes. Okay. So we can't throw
a party here tonight.
That's fine.
- We are Beta Alpha Delta.
- all: Yeah!
That means our night
never ends.
- all: Never.
- Right?
- man: Hell, yeah.
- That's right.
We could go
to Whiskey Wednesday
at that new club on Fourth.
- [Grayson] Yes.
- Yes. Yes.
[Grayson] I love that. Yes.
See, when life gives you lemons,
what do you do?
[burbles]
You make a bourbon sour.
[laughter]
Hey. To a night
well never forget.
- Yeah.
- Yeah. Yeah.
And a night
we won't remember, boys!
Yeah!
[laughs]
upbeat music
Boys are on the way.
man: This is gonna be
a dope night.
[car door closes]
Whooo.
Guys, you don't need that here.
You're good. Go on in.
- [chuckles]
- Thank you, sir.
[indistinct]
Let it go
Yes. Bro, this is epic.
Dude, I know.
It's like half nightclub,
- half rock concert.
- Right.
Never let you go
Wonder where the bar is.
I don't know. Go find it.
No matter where we go
- Never let you go
- Uh, Grayson?
- Grayson?
- Never let you go
Grayson! Grayson!
What? What? What?
Hey. I--I just have
a weird feeling.
It's fine.
Just go get us a few drinks.
I'm--I'm gonna talk
to these girls.
Just do your thing.
Never let you go
Never let you go
We didnt know where to go
Grayson! Grayson.
What? What?
I think it's a church.
This is not a church.
[shouts] Jesus!
- It's a church.
- Yeah. What do we do?
- Hey, go!
- Wow. Wow.
Let's give it up to our
amazing worship team, right?
So anointing. Come on.
All right.
Y'all better have a seat.
Pop a squat if you got.
Oh, we're sitting.
No. We are not staying.
My name is Dallas,
and I'm the youth pastor here
at Redemption,
but tonight is not about me.
No. Tonight is about Him. Right?
I'm preaching to somebody.
Come on.
[clapping]
Right?
Who all is here at Redemption
for the very first time?
First-time guests.
Yes. Yes. Amazing.
I just have one
quick announcement.
We still need
some more camp counselors
for our spring break
overnight camp.
[applauds]
That's right.
Don't be shy.
So if you're interested,
make sure you go
to the sign-up sheet
in the back lobby
with Becky over there.
All right. Well,
without further ado,
I think we gotta pray.
- God. We love you so much.
- Go, go, go.
Now, you are a good,
good father.
I'm just praying off
the dome here.
You love like a hurricane.
Okay? And I'm bending
and I'm--I'm shaking.
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Are you guys leaving?
No, no. We're just grabbing some fresh air.
- Some fresh air. Yeah.
- Oh.
No. I totally get that.
Our worship can be
pretty insane, right?
Not everybody can handle it.
I'm one of the camp counselors. I'm Becky. You are?
I'm Grayson. This is Tyler.
Tyler! Aren't you an answer
to my prayers.
I...I am?
We're looking
for more male counselors
for Camp Burning Bush.
I can guarantee you it will
be the best week of your year.
What do you say?
You want some more information?
You know, we're actually
running out of time.
We're a little late,
so let's just--we gotta go.
Thanks, Becky.
Appreciate you.
muffled upbeat music
- Oh, [...].
- [exhales]
[Tyler] Oh.
[Grayson] There it is.
[scoffs]
Heh. To a night
we'll never forget.
And a night we won't remember.
[knock on door]
[Tyler groans]
[stretching]
Oh, man.
What happened last night, bro?
Ugh, I feel terrible.
Oh. Oh.
Tyler. Tyler. Tyler.
Morning, boys.
Take that stupid thing
off your head.
You got anything to say
for yourselves?
Uh... We're sorry.
Mm-hm. For...?
For...
Public intoxication,
destruction of school property, disturbing the peace.
- Should I keep going?
- Okay, okay.
Officer Montgomery, those
are outrageous accusations.
I mean, without
any concrete evidence,
you cannot get us
for any of those.
Excalibur must be freed.
[laughs] I can't get it.
Okay, there you go.
There you go.
Oh.
[Grayson] I dub thee Sir Tyler
of Beta Alpha Delta.
[post clanks]
One more!
[post clanks]
[Grayson]
Okay. Oh, oh. Not again.
officer: Security. Freeze!
Run! Run! Run!
I think we lost them.
This is crazy.
[laughs]
- Wow.
[Tyler gags]
Hey, hey.
Have you lost weight?
Because you look great.
- Oh, you can tell?
- Yeah.
I look good?
- Mm.
- [laughing]
[all laughing]
Shut up.
You think expulsion is funny?
Wait. Expulsion, what?
Would you gentlemen like to see the other 17 videos you posted?
Kinda...
Okay. Officer Montgomery,
look, rather than allowing
this mistake
to ruin our lives,
let's make good out of it.
So like community service?
Well, I was thinking
more like a donation
to the charity of your choice.
Okay. Oh, community service
is great.
I mean, a day
at a soup kitchen?
- Soup.
- You know what?
Never mind.
No, no, no, no.
We will do a hundred hours.
Okay. No, probably
not a hundred
because that's
a tad bit excessive.
- [chuckles]
- I like it.
How about 120 hours?
Um, okay. Just meet me
in the middle here.
The judiciary board
is gonna meet the Monday
after we get back
from spring break.
If you boys have completed
all 120 hours,
I'll drop the charges.
But that's in two weeks.
Yeah. Better get started.
Any questions?
Can I borrow a shirt?
I'll see what I can do.
Dude, how are we gonna get
120 hours in two weeks?
I don't know.
Maybe we could foster a dog?
Is that--like,
is that a real suggestion?
Just shut up and let me think.
Fine, I'll look for charities.
ethereal music
Bro.
[laughs] No.
Absolutely not. No.
Give me one good reason.
Yeah. I'll give you three.
One, I hate kids.
Two, I hate camping.
And three,
we're not Christians.
Aw, this is minor details, bro.
It'll be easy.
We'll go swimming in the lake,
we'll eat some s'mores,
and sing Christmas carols
by the fire.
You are a complete moron.
Well, sorry,
I just thought...
there's 24 hours in a day,
five days of camp,
that's... that's one--
Wait, Tyler, that's 120 hours,
all in one week.
Plus, we'll be getting hours
while we're literally sleeping.
Sounds good, Becky. Yes.
Monday morning
is absolutely perfect.
We look forward to meeting
with him.
Okay. All right.
God bless.
Boom.
We have got an interview
with the pastor.
- [Tyler] Let's go.
- [Grayson] All right.
Tyler, in order
to make this work,
we really gotta do our homework.
- Yeah. Okay.
- We should go to church.
Sunday. Yes.
We can't go to Redemption.
Obviously,
we don't want any run-ins
with the camp staff, so--
- That's good thinking, bro.
- Yeah.
Porkchop.
Look up churches near me.
Permission to speak, sir?
- Yeah.
- Granted.
All right.
Westside Baptist Church.
No.
- United Methodist Church?
- No. No. No.
It's gotta be one of those
with a ridiculous one word name.
Lighthouse?
Perfect. Yes. Okay.
We go figure out
how they do things,
study what they say,
how they talk.
We gotta act nice.
All Christians act overly nice.
Permission to stop cleaning, sir.
- No.
- We'll blend right in.
My family went to church
when I was little.
Trust me.
In my defense, we only used
to go on Christmas and Easter.
Is that a coffee shop?
Looking good, brothers.
Are you guys missionaries?
- No.
- Yeah.
Uh, okay.
Well, praise God.
unsettling music
[traffic noise]
[crowd screams on screen]
[thunder claps]
Well, Lighthouse,
how we doing today?
[applauds]
One more time.
How are we doing today?
[applauds]
My name is Zion.
I am the lead pastor here.
But more importantly,
I've been married to that
beautiful woman right there
for over 16 years
and she is only getting hotter. -[all laugh]
- Whooh!
- All right. Relax, everybody.
We are married. It's fine.
Do you know
how much I love you?
audience: Yes.
Not as much as Jesus,
but I'm doing my best.
If your Bible's falling apart,
chances are your life ain't.
Come on, so good.
Now church isn't a building,
but I am excited to announce
the launch of our new campus.
Let's hear it.
[applauds]
I'm gonna be honest
and vulnerable.
My life verse, that's easy.
[Matthew 6] 33. You know it.
- I don't watch the news.
- Yes.
I read the news.
The good news.
I have a heart for Africa.
And when God calls,
are you gonna answer?
Or just send Him
the voice mail?
Tim... Tebow.
Just go ahead
and bow your heads.
If you feel the spirit calling
on you right now,
go ahead and raise your hand.
Wow, there's so many hands
going up in the room right now.
Wow. This is incredible.
So many hands.
Lets go
Feeling the [indistinct]
Is never gonna let me go
Cause thats for the taking
Come on, come on, lets go
[phone alarm ringing]
music fades
Oh, shoot.
Okay. All right.
playful, swag music
Oh. Hey, brother.
Didn't think you
was gonna make it.
What are you wearing?
Oh, uh, this?
This is--this is trendy.
Those look like
my little sister's pants.
- They are.
- I'm gonna kill you.
Whoa. Whoa. Whoa.
Look at what you're wearing.
What is this, a job interview?
Yes! Tyler, that's exactly
what this is.
Take off the ridiculous
necklace.
Um, it's a giving key.
It says brave.
It should say idiot.
[Jenna] See you. Bye.
mysterious music
Dibs.
Um, guys. Hey. Hi.
Um, Pastor Tom's ready for you.
Hi, Tyler.
Hi.
[door opens]
I'm sorry to make you wait, boys.
Thank you. Thank you.
Peace be with you, Father.
You can just call me Tom.
Please. Let's just get
to it, okay?
All right.
[clears throat]
Tom, is that your wife
up there?
It is.
Been married 22 years.
Wow. You two make
a great couple, sir.
- She's beautiful.
- And she's only getting hotter.
Well, you both have
very impressive resumes.
Tell me, have either of you
worked with kids before?
Oh, yeah, of course.
Last year, I was a volunteer
basketball coach
for the local middle school, so...
That's a great way
to give back.
Yes, sir.
Tyler, how about you,
you ever work with kids?
Oh! Uh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Um, well no,
but I love kids a lot.
Not in a weird way though.
[nervous chuckle]
What's your giving key say?
[gasps] Why, thanks for asking
about my giving key, Tom.
Oh, brave. I like that.
Can you tell me a little bit
about your walk, Tyler?
My walk? My walk is fast.
- Fast?
- But not too fast.
Nah, his walk is steady.
- Steady.
- Yeah. Yeah.
Okay.
Well, that's--thats good.
You know, some people say
that a life of faith
isn't a sprint.
It's a marathon.
Grayson, do you agree?
I--I--I would say that.
Yes. Yeah, I agree. Yeah.
But, you know, I would
also disagree in that
if you're going to run a race,
you should run as fast
as you can.
Interesting answer.
Tyler, we--we should show Tom
the video.
Oh, ye--yes. [...].
You gotta see that.
It's--it's just incredible.
Now stand up and walk!
[all sobbing, gasping on phone]
J-E-S-U-S! J-E-S-U-S! JESUS!
Wow, guys.
That is incredible. Ha-ha.
Faith really
does move mountains, Tom.
Mm. Come on.
So good. So good.
Mm-hm.
You know, guys, I have to admit,
I was not sure what to expect when you walked in here.
But, well, you actually
kinda remind me of myself
when I was younger.
Thank you, sir.
That means so much.
And, Tom, listen,
I'm gonna be honest
and vulnerable with you.
You know, I think both of us
really agree
that we just feel a calling
to be counselors at this camp.
I mean, serving others
is just what we do.
After all, Tom,
every morning we wake up
and we ask ourselves...
whimsical music
What would Jesus do?
upbeat music
Uh, I got you.
Listen, boys.
Where are your guys'
permission slips?
[chuckles] Just kidding.
I'm Dallas.
You must be Tyler and Grayson. Ha-ha.
Here are your camp tees.
Pretty cool. Right?
Designed them myself.
Philip, over here.
Oh. Hi, boys.
Hope you brought
your water bottles
because I would hate for you
to get thirsty
on this trip, Tyler.
[Dallas] All right,
youth leaders.
Let's get the rest
of these bags on the bus,
and then it is all aboard.
Choo-choo.
Hey, let me give you a hand
with this.
Oh, thank you.
You know what?
That's a little heavy.
I'm gonna let you take that.
Wow. What a gentleman.
Yeah. This is more my speed.
- Oh.
- I'm Grayson.
Jenna.
You know, if you're just
gonna take the pillows,
maybe your friend
can come give me a hand.
Him? No.
You do not want his help.
He lifts with his back.
It's a recipe for disaster.
Mm. He seems to be doing fine.
You know what?
Let me help you with this bag.
Thank you.
[bag clatters, clanks]
I'm gonna stick
with the pillows.
[soft chuckle]
I take it you're one of our
new counselors?
No. No.
I'm a camper, actually.
- Oh, really?
- Yeah, really.
I'm just tall for my grade.
You know, the doctor says
I'm gonna be, like, eight feet.
- [indistinct]--
- Is that so?
Yeah. You are so pretty.
- Wow. Um, that was really--
- Honest?
I was going to say forward.
Yeah. I [stammers]
I--I kinda just came out.
I mean, you are very,
very beautiful, though.
[Tom] Hey, Jenna.
Could you please help Becky
get the rest of the kids
on the bus?
Oh, sure thing, Dad.
Nice to meet you, Grayson.
Thank you.
Make sure you lift
with your legs there, son.
We wouldn't want any
of our leaders getting hurt.
Yeah, yeah, absolutely.
Yeah. I--I will literally lift with my leg.
Yeah.
I'll see you on the bus.
Yeah.
Hey, sorry about my dad.
He can be a little protective.
Nah, didn't even notice.
Is this seat taken?
Oh, actually,
we're supposed to sit
with one of the campers.
Abby's just in the bathroom.
Okay. Let me see
if I can find your guy.
Oh, there he is.
His name is Patrick.
Patrick.
You're gonna love him.
He's just the biggest ball
of energy.
Ha-ha. [whispers]
Just perfect.
Hi. I'm Patrick.
You wanna hear me make
fart noises with my legs?
[fart noises]
[chuckles] Okay. Do wanna play
the question game?
- Not really--
- Okay. I'll go first.
Would you rather be
a dog with no legs
or a fish with no fins? Okay.
Would you rather smell like
a foot or look like a foot?
No. Wait.
I've got another one.
What if you had no eyes--
Okay, so, Tyler,
your guy is right there.
- Shadow.
- [Patrick] Okay.
Um... uh...
what's your favorite number?
Okay. Wait.
I've got another one.
- Would you rather, um--
- [Tyler] What's up, man?
[Patrick] smell like an onion or pepperoni?
- Okay. Wait. What?
- What you playin?
- You never heard of it.
- Try me.
[Patrick] Parking space with
no parking zone or parking up--
Lone State chapter one.
Mm. Did you make it
past the zombie army
- on the old Alton Bridge yet?
- Not yet.
Let me show you then, man.

The world,
the world, the world
Is everyone excited for camp?
[applauding]
Is everyone excited for camp?
[shouts] Yeah.
[clapping]
Yeah.
It's incredible.
On the first day
that this camp opened,
the founders lit
a very special torch
to symbolize Christ
as the light of the world.
The founders' flame
has been passed down
from generation to generation,
from torch to torch
for a hundred years.
And the flame they lit that day
is the very same flame you see burning right there today.
So that each
and every one of you
is part of that
special tradition.
How awesome is that?
Come on.
[applauds]
That is cool.
And as most of you know,
the camp always comes to a close
with the Everything Dance Skit.
This tradition has been
around for 40 years,
and I remember
the first time I saw it.
I was sitting
right down there.
I was your age,
and I was with my camp leader.
[distant bell ringing]
Oh-ho-ho.
That is the dinner bell,
which means it's time to eat.
But before we head up there,
would someone mind praying
for us?
Tyler, how about you?
Huh?
Would you mind praying
for us, please?
Sure. Sure. Yeah.
[clears throat]
[muttering] Our Father...
Out loud?
[kids giggling]
Oh, out loud.
I--yes, out loud. Uh-huh.
As a matter of fact,
come on up here.
Come on.
[clears throat]
playful, tense music
Oh.
Our father,
who does art in heaven,
hello be your name.
Thy kingdom come,
thy will--
thy will be done on, uh--
Everybody now.
On earth as it is in heaven.
Excuse me there.
That went pretty well.
- Does art in heaven?
- It was close.
You're unbelievable.
You better not blow this for us.
[Jenna] Grayson, wait up.
Hey, guys.
- Hey.
- What's up?
Tyler, you were about to go
look for Shadow, weren't you?
I don't know. I'm pretty sure
he's headed to dinner.
Uh, yeah. Yep. I was.
[shouts] Shadow. Yep.
Sorry about him.
He's a little excited
to be here.
He's hilarious.
You guys seem really close.
Yeah. Yeah. I mean,
I pulled him under my wing
back in his freshman year,
and we've just kind of been
best friends ever since.
- So what's up?
- Oh, right.
I wanted to let you know
that skit rehearsals
are tomorrow at seven a.m.
Oh, okay.
Yeah. Sounds good.
Okay.
- Wait. Why?
- Oh, that Everything Skit
is Patrick's favorite part
of the camp.
Usually, it's just
the counselors who do it,
but I figured
it would mean a lot to him
if he could help out,
so I'm gonna make him
assistant director.
Oh, so I guess
that makes me the director.
No. That makes you
the assistant
to the assistant director,
which makes me the director.
So I'm--I'm the assistant
to the assistant?
- Mm-hm.
- Got it.
Seven a.m. Don't be late.
[overlapping chatter]
up-tempo music
[crowd claps in rhythm]
Oh, the night is falling
Oh, the feelings falling
Well, hello there, everyone.
I'm Craig and this is...
Meg!
And we are your
Certified Morale Booster.
Yeah!
We're just two
fun loving people from...
Minnesota.
Here to get your morals.
Toong! Toong!
- [trills] Let's go.
- What do you say, Craig?
I think that's a great idea,
Meg.
And a great way to do that
is to use these golden pipes
of ours
and sing at the top
of our lungs.
Did you say sing?
[gasps] This is a repeat
after me song.
A what?
A repeat after me song.
Three, two, one.
[sings]
The alligator is my friend.
[sings]
And he can be yours too.
- And he can be yours too.
- And he can be yours too.
[sings]
If only you would understand.
[sings]
That hes got feelings too.
- That hes got feelings too.
- That hes got feelings too.
Yeah!
[all applauding]
Great. Give it up
for yourselves!
Yeah, come on.
[all applauding]
[laughs]
[insects chirping]
[Tyler] Pick up the antidote.
[Shadow]
I can't pick up the antidote.
[Tyler]
Well, just go to the left, okay?
And turn right.
Yeah. Hold on.
[Dallas] Oh, yeah.
No. Sorry, boys.
No electronic devices.
[Shadow] What?
[Tyler] Come on, man.
He was just about
to get the cure.
Okay.
Well, you can get the cure
at the end of the week,
all right?
That's right, boys.
No phones, tablets,
e-Bibles, nothing.
Wait. I can keep my phone
though, right?
Gray daddy.
Leaders lead. Right?
That's why
we're called leaders.
So, no, you can't keep
your phone.
You know where you can
put it though?
In the lock boxes
like everyone else.
[exhales]
[sighs]
[Tyler snoring]
[muttering] Becky,
you silly goose.
[giggling]
[birds chirping]
[Dallas] But soft!
What light through yonder
window breaks?
It is the East,
and Juliet is the sun.
See, how she leans her cheek
upon that hand!
Oh, that I was a glove
upon that hand,
so that I might touch
that cheek.
Dallas, off the stage.
Well, Shakespeare himself said
All the world's a stage
so technically...
Yes ma'am.
Alright, everyone.
Why don't we get started?
Now, I've already assigned
everyone their roles
and responsibilities.
Patrick, you--
[door opens]
Nice of you to join us.
Oh, sorry I'm late.
I didn't know you were
start right at seven.
Patrick, you are going to be
assistant director.
- What? Really?
- Yup.
I have some really
important tasks for you.
Dallas, you are gonna
be our stage manager.
All right!
Let there be light. Right?
And of course, you guys
are gonna be our dancers
like last year.
Okay, everyone, on your feet.
Let's start warming up.
Patrick, you and Grayson
go through the costume box
and plot everything
on this list, okay?
Hey, how long is this gonna go?
Do I have time
to go grab a coffee?
Okay, everyone, from the top.
[exhales]
uplifting music
Ooo, cookies.
You want me
to grab you something.
No, no, I'm good.
[overlapping chatter]
[chuckles] She is fearfully
and wonderfully made,
am I right?
What?
Let me give you some advice
about her.
She's not really in a season
to be pursued right now.
- Oh, okay.
- Yeah. [sighs]
Told me so herself.
Today?
Yeah. Well, more like over
the last two years.
Repeatedly.
You just gotta respect a girl
who's so committed
to seeking Jesus first.
[giggles]
[Dallas sighs]
But that is a land flowing
with milk and honey.
Am I right? [chuckles]
[overlapping chatter]
[coffee pouring]
I'm--Im sorry,
did you want some coffee?
Are you asking me
on a coffee date?
What? No, I was just asking
if you wanted--
- No?
- No, yeah.
No, Tyler, obviously.
That was a joke. [giggles]
Hey, so like don't think this
is weird or anything, right?
But I was doing
my listening prayer
and God gave me
this image of a tree.
And then He showed me
a second giant beautiful tree,
and their roots were just
intertwined down there,
and it made them actually
just one big tree.
And then He told me
you were my husband.
[blows kiss]
[Pastor Tom] Okay, campers.
For our next activity,
I'm gonna need one lucky
leader's help
because it's time
for a counselor makeover.
[applauding]
Alright. I've got
all the leaders' names
in this bowl,
and I'm not looking.
And our lucky leader
for the day is...
- What did you just say?
- [laughing]
Grayson.
[applauding]
Grayson. Come on up here.
No, Im good. Im good.
- man: Whooh!
- [Tyler] Grayson.
[in unison]
Grayson. Grayson. Grayson.
Grayson. Grayson. Grayson.
rock music
[dramatic sting]
For our last pick, hm... Patrick.
- Yes!
- What?
A...great pick, Becky.
Go us.
That was a close one.
You almost had Isaiah.
We wouldn't have even been
on the same team.
Lets go. Lets go.
Well, that could
be the difference
- between us winning and losing.
- Right.
Grayson,
it's not about winning,
its about having fun.
- Yeah!
- And thats were gonna do.
[Tyler]
Well go down in history!
team blue:
Well go down in history!
Team Blue will take
the victory!
- [Tyler] Team Blue!
- other kids: Team Blue!
Okay, look. Becky,
if its not about winning,
then we wouldn't care
about capturing the flag.
We wouldn't be keeping score. But we are keeping score,
so we do care about winning, right?
Yeah!
Yeah, not with Patrick
on our team.
You should have picked Isaiah.
- I'll be right back.
- Mm-hm.
That's not cool, dude.
Patrick, come on, man.
Who cares what those guys think?
Go away.
Look, Patrick, kids are mean.
I mean they're gonna make fun
of you for anything they can.
Okay.
This is a repeat after me song.
I said, this is a repeat
after me song.
Patrick is awesome.
Patrick is awesome.
[sings] He is my friend.
[sings] He is my friend.
[sings]
And I've got his back.
[sings]
And I've got his back.
Oh.

Hey, follow me.
soft piano music
[overlapping chatter]
Ah! I think if they're not back in the next 58 seconds

Okay. There's three people,
and we have to go around them
to get the flag.
- Thanks for the update.
- You're welcome.
I have a plan.
[determined drums]
Attack!
Oh, no.

Is this even legal?
All is fair in love
and war, Tyler.
Love and war.
Oh. Sorry.

Our jail is back that way.

What flag?
uplifting music
[Grayson]
Alright. Here we go.
On our way out.
Yep. We will see you guys
in a little bit.
Thank you. Alright.
Have a good one.
Ay-yi-yi. Okay.
Hello.
[clears throat]
[Howard] Hey, Grayson.
It's Howard.
I got the Scotch.
You certainly will fit in
around here.
We'll send over
the paperwork next week.
Then once we get that back
from you,
you're just
a background check away
from being good to go here
at Grossman and Birch.
Congrats, Grayson.
Okay. Okay.
This is great.
man [o.s.]:
Hey yo, Graydawg!
We miss you, bro!
Vegas is crazy.
The moose is loose, baby!
[Vince] Dont worry,
we'll throw a party
when were all back!
Hey, how are the chicks
at church camp?
I wanna know. Who are you?
[chuckles] Lets see here
[phone pings]
What up, boys?
Hope you guys aren't having
too much fun without me.
By the way,
there is one girl here
who is a legit 10 out of 10.
I mean an absolute--
- Whatcha doing?
- Oh, hello.
Nothing. Nothing. Just...
You're not supposed
to be on your phone.
- Maybe I should go tell Dallas.
- Oh, okay. No, no, no, no, no.
You could, but then that
would make you a tattletale.
And you know, no one likes
a tattletale, right?
Yeah, but that makes you
a tattletale
because no one likes you.
Okay, listen kid.
If you think you're gonna walk
all over me this week,
you got another thing
coming for you.
So if I were you, I'd go ahead
and just keep that little
10-year-old mouth shut, okay?
- I'm 12.
- Oh, great.
Then let's start
acting like it, yeah?
Come on, let's go.
We're late for dinner.
I said let's go. Come on.
upbeat music
Im filled with sunshine

Yeaaahhh!
upbeat music continues
upbeat music fades
[Dallas] Hey. Yo. G-man.
[exhales]
Just wrapped up my daily Ds.
You know how it be.
There's just nothing better
than quiet time
on top of a mountain
with the king of kings.
Am I right? Shebloink.
Oh, totally. Yeah.
- Hey, Dallas.
- Hey, bud.
Dope shirt. Yeah.
Listen, Patrick, I gotta have
a quick little chatski
with the Gray-doggy here,
so maybe you can...
help Jenna
with those props, huh?
- Okay.
- Awesome.
What's up, Dallas?
You tell me.
I don't think there's anything
to tell you.
Sure about that?
I'm onto you.
- You are?
- Oh, yeah. Big time.
You might--you might think
that you could fool
Pastor Tom and Jenna.
No one's gonna pull a wool
over this sheep's eyes, okay?
- Dallas--
- [gibberish] Stop.
Just admit it,
you're falling for Jenna.
Oh, that. [chuckles]
Yeah. Dude, no.
We--we're--we
are just friends.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Okay.
Tell me something, all right?
Man to man.
Are you and Jenna...
talking?
Talking?
Yes, talking.
We--I mean,
we've--we've talked.
- Sure. Yeah.
- [gags]
I knew it. [coughs]
Yeah, I knew it.
Fine. That's great.
Well, have you had a DTR?
A DTR?
To find the relationship?
I just wanna make sure
that you're guarding her heart.
Yeah. Of course.
Yes. It's guarded.
Okay. Good.
You know, because you can't stop
a girl from falling,
but you can keep her
from stumbling.
Hey.
Sniffing when I'm stepping in?
I think I am. Yep.
[exhales] [chuckles] Great.
Good. Whooh. Awesome.
Oh, Gray daddy,
I am praying for you.
Not right now.
Gotta go be a manager,
stage manager,
but still important.
- Yeah.
- And I'm needed. So... okay.
[footsteps receding]
[Becky] Okay, everybody,
it's looking good.
Don't forget that these
are going home to your parents
or you can give it
to somebody you love.
Let's put some effort
into it, yeah?
Tucker! Seriously,
hands to yourself.
Thank you.
[giggles]
Do you like it?
Yeah.
Yeah, that's--that's--
that's great, bud.
Is that you and your dad?
I don't have a dad.
It's you and me.
Oh wow. That's, um...
that's really nice, Patrick.
What'd you paint, Shadow?
Darkness.
Well, you nailed it.
Absolutely nailed it. Come on.
Okay.
Whenever you guys are ready,
bring them up here
so we can get them glazed.
Just set them right there.
[mug shatters]
[Patrick] No!
Tucker,
what is your problem, dude?
[Tucker] It was just an accident.
It's ruined.
Patrick, have you ever heard
of Kintsugi?
- No.
- Okay.
Well, it's this art form
that takes broken pottery,
and they repair it.
They glue it all together
with gold.
And you know what
the result is?
I don't know.
Pottery is even more precious
than it was before.
In fact, it's actually
all these little cracks
that make it so beautiful.
So here's what we're gonna do.
We're gonna take this mug,
and we're gonna fix it together,
and it's gonna be even better
than if it was never broken
at all.
Okay?
Okay.
[Grayson] Alright. Come on.
Let's pick up the pieces.
And the storm is just raging.
I mean, the wind is howling.
The waves are crashing
on the deck of the boat,
and the disciples,
they're like, Whoa. Whoa.
[Tyler laughing]
And they wake him up.
"Jesus. Jesus."
Now does he look at them
and growl,
"Why did you wake me up?"
- No.
- No way.
No. He calmly asks them,
"Why are you afraid,
O you of little faith?"
You see, the Bible,
it doesn't promise us
no more storms. No.
The Bible promises us
that we have a savior
so that when
those storms do come,
he will bring us peace.
Now can I get an amen on that?
kids: Amen.
Alright. We're gonna
take the next few minutes
and--and have a time
of worship together,
and--and as we do,
I want every single one of you
to take a pen
and write down a lie
that you've been believing
about yourself.
And when you're ready,
you can bring it down
and throw that in the fire.
Because there's something
special that takes place
when we bring those
hidden things into the light.
It's almost like
they lose power over us.
So whatever
you're carrying right now,
go ahead and bring it
into the light.
I wandered down
the wide road
Chased what wouldnt last
Runnin from my failures
The ghosts
that haunt my past
Tried too hard to hurt him
But still the shadows play
But even in my darkness
You were the light
that stayed
And I wore my pride
like armor
A smile to bury the pain
Trying hard
to earn redemption
To climb my way to grace
But love is not a trophy
And the swift
don't win the race
But even in my blindness
You were the light
that stayed
Mm, yeah
You were the last one
standing
When everyone had gone
The lighthouse shinin
When I felt so far from home
Didn't find you in the glory
All the man-made accolades
No. You found me
in the darkness
And you were the light
that stayed
You were the light
that stayed
[Tyler] Grayson. Hey, Grayson.
Bro. Hey.
I've been thinking and...
we've gotta come clean, bro.
- What?
- No. No. No.
Hear me out.
It's like they were saying.
If--if--if there's darkness,
uh--no, no.
Wait, wait. If--if things
are in the darkness,
it--it will--it--what the--
what's--I don't know.
It sounded better when the
singer guy was saying it.
- Okay. Listen to me.
- But--
You do not,
under any circumstances,
say a word about this, okay?
Okay, I just think
it would be--
No, no, no. Tyler.
Don't be an idiot here.
You say something,
we get kicked out.
You hear me?
Yeah.
I hear you loud and clear.
All right.
pensive music
[sighs]
[Jenna] Great rehearsal
today, everyone.
Tonight is the night,
so just enjoy the rest
of your day
and be back here 07:30 sharp
for the big show.
[Dallas] Okey-dokey.
That's enough gang.
[Grayson]
Whats got you all smiley?
- [Dallas] Hey.
- The skit.
Aren't you excited?
Uh, pumped.
Hey, Patrick,
why don't you take off?
I'm gonna hang out
for a second. Okay?
- Okay.
- Alright.
[Dallas] Hey, hey. Johnny.
Hey, didn't your dad
ever teach you
not to bite your nails?
Uh, bad habit, I know.
- No, let me see.
- No, Grayson, stop.
No, no, no. Let me see.
It can't be that bad.
Grayson, I said stop!
Jenna, I--I'm sorry.
I was--I was just kidding.
Its fine.
It's just embarrassing.
You should go.
I--I have things
I need to finish here.
Okay.
Jenna. Jenna.
You got a sec?
Not really, Dallas.
Oh, perfect. Okay.
[groans] Scooch over a bit.
[exhales] Okay. Look.
[clears throat] I'm not here
to judge anybody,
but I do feel like I need
to warn you about Grayson.
Warn me about what?
There's something off
with him, Jenna.
He's hiding something,
and I don't know what it is,
but I don't think
he's as close to the Lord
as he says that he is.
And I overheard him
and Tyler talking,
and they were saying
something about--
Wait. You were spying on them?
Yes. No.
No, no, no, no.
I was going on my nightly
prayer walk,
and I overheard one of them say,
Oh, they'd get kicked out
if we knew.
Something.
Okay. And what does this have
to do with me?
Jenna, I don't want you
to get hurt.
You deserve better.
I think I can judge
that by myself,
but thank you, Dallas.
Okay. Well, just be careful.
He is not who you want
him to be.
[sighs]
[distant kids chatter]
[footsteps]
What's bugging you?
Nothing.
I saw you at breakfast.
You only had two helpings.
[sighs] I can't really talk
about it.
Tyler,
I know who you really are.
What? You do?
Yeah, bro.
You're a nerd.
I mean, on the surface,
you act like this big, cool guy,
but deep down, youre actually
kind of a dork.
Wait. What?
No. I'm not.
And for some reason,
you act a lot dumber
than you actually are.
I mean, no idiot
would have known
how to get past the zombie army
on the old Alton Bridge.
So why do you put on this mask
of someone you're not?
When I was in high school,
I was just like this scrawny kid
who was really into baking,
you know?
Yeah.
And when I got to college,
I leaned into being the funny, crazy guy,
and people treated me differently
because I was the life
of the party.
And as more people saw me
as the cool guy,
more I acted like him.
Then--
You couldn't tell
the difference
between the real you
and this character?
Yeah.
How do you know
all this about me?
You're not the only one
wearing a mask.
You're one deep
little dude, Shadow.
Can I ask you something?
Go ahead.
Your real name
isn't Shadow, right?
- It's Finn.
- Mm. Finn.
Not dark enough for you.
[chuckles]
Well, I dig it. Finn.
Hey, Tyler.
Sup?
Thanks for making
this camp fun for me.
Glad you enjoyed it.
[Becky] Tyler.
Tyler. Tyler.
Hey, Shadow.
Have you seen Tyler?
Nope. Sorry.
That's so weird
because someone just told me
he was at the dock.
[water gurgles]
Okay. Well, if you see him,
will you tell him
that I'm saving him
a seat next to me for the skit?
Sure.
[Becky] Tyler?
[water splashes]
[coughing]
Good stuff.
[distant chatter]
[crickets chirping]
I come with a peace offering.
Thank you. [chuckles]
I picked them myself.
I can tell.
Well, I didn't know what to do
with such short notice, so.
Mm.
- Well, here he comes.
- Who?
Smooth Grayson.
Smooth Grayson?
Yes. Every time
you're about to be cool,
you get a serious look
on your face.
Like this.
Well, this was fun.
See you.
I'm--I'm--I'm kidding.
Kind of. [giggles]
[humming amazing Grace]
tense music
[phone keys clucking]
[Dallas clears throat]
[laughing on phone]
Pouring one out for you guys.
Yeah. Go, go, go, go.
[overlapping laughter
and screaming on phone]
[Jenna] So, wanna play
the question game?
[chuckles]
You sound like Patrick.
Who do you think taught him?
Okay. You go first.
Okay. Um...
when did you first
start following Jesus?
Whoa, starting off
with the heavy hitters, huh?
Let's do something
a little easier,
like, um... favorite food.
Fine, okay.
Let's meet in the middle.
How about favorite
birthday ever?
Oh, wow, that's tough.
Um...
eleventh.
You?
Wait, why was it your favorite?
That wasn't the question.
Well, it is now.
Why was it your favorite?
No. Pass.
- You can't pass.
- I just did.
And what is your favorite
birthday, Jenna?
Fine. Uh...
- sixteenth.
- Hm.
My parents bought me this...
- 1998 Honda Civic.
- Wow.
It was a piece,
but I loved it.
You know,
you do kinda strike me
as the girl that
would name her car.
Are there people
who don't?
- Wait. What did you name it?
- Rupert.
Of course.
- Wow.
- [chuckles]
Okay. Now--now
I wanna know the why.
Okay. Um... well,
I hit the game winning double
in my Little League
championship game.
- Mm. Of course you did.
- Yeah.
Ripped that right up
left field line and...
yeah, I just remember my dad
running up to home plate
and just scooping me up
in his arms,
and... I don't know,
I think that's just the
most proud I've ever seen him.
Are you two close?
Ah, no. Not really.
I'm sorry.
No, it's fine.
What about you?
You and your dad seem close.
Yeah. No, we--we are.
But?
It's just my dad's this
larger than life guy,
and living in his shadow
can be tough at times.
I sometimes struggle with
how much of my faith
is based on what I believe
and how much of it is
because it's what he believes.
Does that make sense?
Yeah.
You know, my dad always put
such a huge emphasis on success
that success
just meant everything.
And, you know, I think it
kinda shaped me into who I am.
And who are you, Grayson?
You know, I think I'm still
trying to figure that out.
Are you hiding something?
What? No. No.
Why--why do you ask that?
Nothing. Never mind.
It's just--
No, it's just what?
It's just Dallas
might have mentioned
a conversation he overheard.
Okay, I think Dallas
is making things up
because he's jealous.
Oh, is that so?
And what might he be jealous of?
Us.
romantic music swells, fades
I hope I'm not interrupting.
[clears throat] No. No.
We're, uh, we're just--
I was showing her these flowers
- and I just picked them.
- Cool.
Yeah. Club's starting, so...
- Oh. Gotta go.
- Yes. Yeah.
- Thanks.
- Gotta go.
- Okay.
- All right. Thank you.
After you.
Uh, Grayson.
Quick question.
We really should get going
to the clubhouse.
It'll be quick.
Are your ancestors from Greece?
Uh, Dallas, I'm really not
in the mood for this right now.
Because I'm still trying
to figure out why you and Tyler
were wearing togas on campus.
[Grayson on video]:
Go, go, go, go.
Okay, that doesn't
prove anything.
Yeah. No, you're right.
But it didn't take long for me
to find about 10 other unflattering videos.
- [laughs]
- [laughs]
That was smart that you changed
your account to private.
Tyler did not get the memo.
Let's just say that this paints a very vivid picture
of the real Grayson.
See you out there.
[sighs]
[camping chatter and laughter]
Dallas, we need to talk.
About what?
You know about what.
Have you said anything
to anyone?
Grayson, I know this skit
isn't important to you,
but it is to Jenna,
all right,
so maybe let's
have this conversation after.
Yeah?
Grayson, where have you been?
I need to get the props ready.
Come on, I need your help.
I don't have time for this.
Do you know where Tyler is?
I can't find my measuring tape.
Grayson, do you know
where it--
Grayson! Grayson!
Just figure it out, Patrick.
Oh.
Sorry.
I'll just ask Jenna for it.
Patrick.
Tyler. Tyler. Come here.
[Tyler] What?
[Grayson] Dallas knows.
- He what?
- He knows.
He found out because of
your stupid public Instagram,
- you idiot.
- Hey, don't touch me.
No. No. No.
This is all your fault.
How is this my fault?
How are we doing,
Camp Burning Bush?
[all applauding]
[Pastor Tom] Yeah. Yes.
In a few moments,
we are going to experience something very special.
The Everything Skit
has been the grand finale
of this camp for decades,
and this year is going
to be the best one yet
because we are celebrating
our one hundredth anniversary.
[Tyler over speaker]:
How is this all my fault?
[Grayson over speaker]:
We wouldn't even be in this mess
if you hadn't suggested
we do a million hours
of community service.
And whose idea was it
to come to this stupid camp
in the first place?
Now everyone's gonna know
that we're lying
about being Christians.
[Tyler over speaker]:
You know what, Grayson?
I'm done with you.
Don't--don't walk away
from me.
Hey, I said don't touch me.
[stage light thuds]
[flame crackles]
Everybody back up, back up.
Back away from the stage.
[all screaming]
Its gonna burn!
[all panic screaming]
somber music
somber operatic music
So what'd you want to talk
to us about?
[Pastor Tom]
Oh, is this funny to you?
Because somebody could
have been seriously hurt.
I wanted to help you out,
give you a shot,
and you completely blew it.
So when'd you figure it out?
Well, Tyler here bowed
first thing in the interview.
You didn't think that
was a dead giveaway?
And don't sit there
like Slick Rick either.
Faith really
does move mountains, Tom.
Then why'd you even let us
come here in the first place?
When I said that you guys reminded me of me
when I was younger,
it wasn't a compliment.
When I was a little older
than you,
about 25, 26,
I was in a bad place.
And one night,
I heard a voice.
And that voice said,
Tom, this is not who you are.
You are going
to change your life.
And I didn't know who, what,
or where that voice came from,
but I knew it was right.
I knew it.
And so the next morning,
I sat down with my best friend,
and he said something
I will never forget.
"Every man that walks
into a brothel
is searching for God."
And I realized
I'd been searching for God,
but I'd been looking
in all the wrong places.
On the outside,
I was the life of the party,
but on the inside,
I was a total mess.
Pack your bags, boys.
You're done here.
[twenty Something [stripped
Sessions]" performed by Nightly]
Talk you down
Wasted on the couch
Say what you're feeling now
Don't hold back
Spell it out
Spare me your dirty mouth
Whatever is keeping you
here now
Don't let it fade
Caught in a web
of your memories
Like the way we would talk,
we were 17
But I'm losing the feeling that's keeping me here now
Here now, now
[Vince] ...all the rules.
Thank you. Thank you.
Can we get some
real competition?
Also, this is gonna get
a little more.
This is the game right here.
Hey, what's up, boys?
Bring back any hotties
from Jesus Camp?
Hey. Hey. Hey.
Okay. This is game.
Ready? Ready?
This is game, actually.
[all screaming happily]
Don't freak out,
don't stop now, babe
We're only twenty-something
I don't know, man.
Maybe we could grab a few hours
volunteering somewhere else.
all: Drink, drink,
drink, drink.
I know there's a few soup
kitchens downtown we could hit,
but...
I don't know if Montgomery's gonna give us those hours
we did do at camp or not,
so let's see.
It's over, Grayson.
It's not over, Tyler.
Look, I'm--I'm not
gonna be expelled.
I can't be expelled. Okay?
What, you think I'm still
gonna get this job
if I get kicked out of school? -You ruined camp, Grayson.
We trashed the skit,
we crushed Patrick and Finn,
and all you're worried about
is being golfing buddies
with some rich dudes
in New York?
What else do you want me to do, Tyler, sell muffins?
Waste my money
on dumb t-shirts?
I thought you said
it was a good idea.
That's just because
I felt sorry for you.
[distant party chatter]
Wow.
[gentle music]
Grayson! Grayson!
Grayson! Grayson! Grayson!
Grayson! Grayson!
Grayson! Grayson!
Aahh!
[shoe thumps]
gentle music
[paper rustling]
[breathes deeply]
You're my best friend,
you know that?
Yeah.
- Bestie for the restie--
- Gimme, gimme, gimme.
Guys, I'm gonna need your help.
Vince, do you still have
that party bus connect?
Yeah, of course.
I'm gonna need one,
and gather the guys.
Moose, you still have all those
Garden of Eden costumes?
- [burps] Duh.
- Okay, grab them.
Porkchop, I'm gonna need
all the tools you can grab,
and then wood.
We're gonna need a lot of wood. -Where am I gonna get wood?
Vince/Grayson:
Figure it out!
Thanks, guys.
You know what, Moose?
Actually, I'm gonna need
those curtains.
Cool. Hey, will you also
been needing my pillowcases?
They match.
No. Has anybody seen Tyler?
- No.
- I haven't seen him.
All right, thanks.
[insects chirping]
Tyler. Hey dude.
You've been sitting
out here all night?
I didn't feel like being
at the house.
You were right.
I've just been thinking
about me.
I've been doing that
for a long time, actually.
Look, I'm putting myself first
and putting
everyone else second.
What I'm trying to say
is I'm...
I'm sorry.
What? Can you say that again?
I didn't get that last part.
It must be the poor acoustics
in the quad or something.
I'm sorry, Tyler.
soft, uplifting music
Grayson Fuller.
Are you actually
apologizing to me?
Hey, look, dude,
you know I'm not good
at this whole apology thing,
but I need you, Tyler.
I need my best friend.
Can you please forgive me?
soft, uplifting music intensifies
[Vince] Hey, lovebirds.
You wanna get a room
or you wanna get on the bus?
[whistles]
Graydawg, its starting
to smell weird in here.
- Come on, let's go.
- We have to hurry.
Hey, can we roll down
the windows in here?
Where are we going?
Come on.
[birds chirping]
[indistinct chatter]
I'm sorry, buddy.
He let us all down.
Yeah.
Hey. We can still have fun together, right?
Yeah. Sure, Dallas.
Hey, yo.
You guys are going
the wrong way.
Dallas, did you know
they changed the bag drop site?
[overlapping chatter]
This is amazing.
Who did all this?
[campers overlapping whisper]
Grayson.
Tyler.
What are you doing here?
Tom, we realized
we messed up.
We wanted to come back
to make it right.
And to say we're sorry
for lying
and for ruining the skit
and for almost
burning down the camp.
And Patrick,
I let you down, man.
You're a good dude,
and I just want you to know
that you've impacted me,
and I'm grateful for that.
But the thing is,
we were in trouble,
and I didn't want
to lose out on a job
because that was the
most important thing to me.
Because I believed that one day,
if I reached the top,
I'd be happy.
Just, uh...
look, I think--I think
what I'm trying to say is, uh--
We are all walking
into a brothel.
What's a brothel?
Oh, it's just a building
filled with--
Metaphors.
It's a building
full of metaphors.
Metaphors for...
for the things that are trying
to replace God in our lives.
[Tyler] Come on.
So good. So good.
Anyways, we ruined
a very special skit last night.
And we built a new stage
with the help of our boys.
bros: To the man!
- [mouths] I love you.
- Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!
I love you.
Tom, if it's okay with you,
we'd love to see that skit.
Well...
what do you say, Jenna?
I say...
let's do it.
Dancers?
[everything
performed by Lifehouse]
Find me here
And speak to me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light
That's leading me
You hold me in your hands
You won't let me fall
You still my heart
And you take my breath away
Would you take me in
Take me deeper now?
And how can I
stand here with you
And not be moved by you?
'Cause you're all I want,
you're all I need
You're everything,
everything
You're all I want,
you're all I need
You're everything,
everything
You're all I want,
you're all I need
You're everything,
everything
You're all I want,
you're all I need
You're everything,
everything
How can I
stand here with you
And not be moved by you?
Would you tell me
how could it be
Any better,
any better than this?
How can I
stand here with you
And not be moved by you?
Would you tell me
How could it be
any better than this?
[all clapping]
You know, you're alright, kid.
You wanna go outside
and play tag?
- Sure.
- Hey, Finn.
[Becky] I know, I know.
Is there something different
about Becky?
playful music
Never mind.
It just--must be the lighting.
[clears throat]
Not bad, Grayson.
Not bad.
Thanks, Dallas.
- I love you, man.
- Okay. Thanks, buddy.
Well, aren't you full
of surprises?
Thank you for everything
you did today.
It meant a lot to the kids.
And me.
It was the least we could do.
But I don't know why you were
so nervous about all this.
I mean,
it was beautiful, Jenna.
Thank you.
Jenna, I--I just wanna say
I'm so sorry.
It's okay.
Well, maybe not okay, but...
- Yeah.
- I do forgive you.
Good.
I know I have a ways to go.
Yeah, that's fair.
[Becky] Because I mean, like...
playful music
Its fine but I love...
That was really fun.
I think this is
[indistinct] this year.
- Yeah.
- Yeah, that would be fun.
[all gasping]
I'm gonna go find Patrick.
Grayson.
We could grab a coffee?
Are you asking me
on a coffee date?
- Maybe.
- Wow.
I hear that's pretty serious
in the Christian world.
Okay. Calm down.
or you're gonna be bumped down
to group game night.
No, no, no. Coffee.
- I'll take coffee.
- Sorry to interrupt but--
you guys gotta come get Tyler.
We're getting married!
[all applauding happily]
- Tyler!
- Becky!
[never Get Used To This by Forrest Frank and Jvke]
I'll never get used to this
This is how I want to live
Forever we'll be singing like,
"Oh"
Walk up out the grave,
yeah, I'm alive now
Told the Devil, "Boy you
out of time now" [whoa]
Spirit moving in me
Im on fire now
I know it won't ever die out, won't ever die out
And now I see Your blessings, see Your blessings every day
Thankful that
Your kingdom's on the way
Angels all around me,
hear 'em sing like "Oh"
I'll never get used to this
[laughs] Wow. Wow. Come on.
Let's give it up
to our amazing worship team.
Yeah. Got some legends up here.
And let's give it up
to our amazing God.
Right? [laughs]
[all applauding, clapping]
That's right.
Well, my name is Dallas
and I am the youth pastor here
at Redemption.
We still need
some more counselors
for our summer missions trip to...
Cancun.
That's right. Cancun.
Absolutely not. No.
I was stuck inside that grave
a long time
Didn't think I'd make it
Through those long nights
But You never late,
You always on time
Remember when
You got me out that?
You got me out that
And now I see Your blessings,
see Your blessings every day
Thankful that Your kingdom's on the way
Angels all around me,
hear them sing like, "Oh"
I'll never get used to this
This is how I want to live
Forever we'll be singing like, "Oh"
Walk up out the grave, yeah, I'm alive now
Told the Devil, "Boy you out
of time now" [whoa]
Spirit moving in me
Im on fire now
I know it won't ever die out,
won't ever die out
And now I see Your blessings, see Your blessings every day
Thankful that Your kingdom's
on the way
Angels all around me,
hear 'em sing like "Oh"
I'll never get used to this
This is how I want to live
Forever we'll be singing like, "Oh"
I'll never get used to this
Mmh, yeah [hey, hey]
From the mornin'
to the evenin'
I could sing
Your praise all day
From the prison
to the garden
You're the God
who's breakin' chains
When I look back
[when I look back]
On my whole life
[on my whole life]
There's a silver lining
of grace
I can't wait to thank You,
Jesus, oh
I'll never get used to this
This is how I want to live
Forever we'll be singing like, "Oh"
I'll never get used to this [hey, hey]
I'll never get used to this
[i'll never get used to this]
This is how I wanna live
[this is how I wanna live]
Forever we'll be singing like, "Oh" [hey, hey]
I'll never get used to this
But soft! What light
through yonder window breaks?
It is the east,
and Juliet is the sun.
Arise, fair sun,
and kill the envious moon,
who is already sick
and pale with grief,
that thou her maid,
art far more fair than she.
Be not her maid,
since she is envious.
Her vestal ivory
is but sick and green,
and none but fools do wear it; cast it off.
It is my lady,
oh, it is my love.
- [Jenna] Dallas!
- Oh, that she knew she were.
She speaks,
yet she says nothing.
What of that?
Her eye discourses;
I will answer it.
I am too bold,
'tis not to me she speaks.
Two of the faint stars
in all the heaven,
having some business,
do entreat her eyes
to twinkle in their spheres
till they return.
What if her eyes were there,
they in her head?
The brightness of her cheek
would shame those stars,
as daylight doth a lamp;
so her eyes in heaven,
as through an airy region
would stream so bright
that birds would sing
and think it were not night.
See, as she leans her cheek
upon that hand!
Oh, that I was a glove
upon that hand,
so that I might touch
that cheek.
[coughs] I've always wanted
to be Romeo,
but alas, I'm always
the comedic relief, so...
