No one in this family drinks.

- Wait, what?
It's like the-the show
Intervention, you know?
No, I don't.
So, on that show,
everyone tells the person who's drinking
how it's affected their life
and then that person stops.
Hey, James. Uh,
you drink all the time.
Lucas, James cannot drink
and keep a job like this.
- Mm.

Lucas.
I mean, look at James He's fine,

He's been working really
hard at his new job.

- You smoke so much.
- Look at him!
He can't even sit up straight.
Come on.

I'm thankful that James didn't die

He has arrived.
Who's this bozo?
I've never seen him in my life.
Nurse.
May I have some medical assistance,
- please.
- Yes?
- I'll have a piña colada.
- Yeah,
we're not a blender
type of establishment.
Well, then I'll have
a piña colada neat, then.
Okay.
Hey. You want one?
It's on your boy.
A milkshake? No, thanks.
Okay. Barkeep, did you know that
this woman hates free things?
Come on, it's not technically free.
I'd feel like I owe you something,
like, even a smile,
and I don't want to do that, so
no.
Ah. Thank you very much.
Oh! My God, that's good.
You, sir you got
a great future ahead of you,
did you know that?
Oh!
Yeah.
Yeah.
You got to respect the commitment,
but I don't want to watch
this anymore. Hey, bud.
C'mon, let me buy you a drink.
Let me guess. Cosmo.
Espresso martini, thank you.
Ugh. Hey, Ronnie,
will you please get a drink
for me and my friend
- Uh, James.

here a, uh What do you want?
An espresso martini, please.
And thank you
Oh, Katrina.
Oh, like the hurricane.
Yeah. Well, happy
goddamn Thanksgiving,
- James.
- Uh, y yeah.
- And to you, good sir.
- Mm-hmm.
- Listen.
- What?
Just because you bought me a drink
doesn't mean that
you can take advantage of me.
What kind of monster do you think I am?
Oh! Wait, wait, wait.
You're very drunk,
so I just want to make sure
I have your consent.
- Oh, no, you got it.
- Okay.
Do I have yours?
Oh, yeah. I'm not even that drunk, so
Okay.
Okay, okay, wait.
What if we did, like, a vow?
- You mean like praying?
- No, not like a prayer.
Repeat after me:
I, Katerina, do consent to one James
in front of God and everyone here
forever and ever in perpetuity.
That sounds a lot like a prayer, man.
Here we go. I, Katrina, vow to G
to God and the
I say yes to the dress. Amen.
Yes.
Onward, Christian soldier.
That was fun.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, it was my
first time doing that, so
Yeah, yeah, same. Obviously.
Hey, listen, I'm gonna go out first.
You have to wait a
second so no one notices.
Ronnie!
This was on the floor
when I got in there.
Can you believe that? I mean,
you got to tighten up your shit, man.
- That's embarrassing for you.
- Oh, yeah.
No, I-I I'll get on those apps
and, uh, code away, man. I got you.
- Hey.
- Mm.
I thought you went home.
I was looking all over for you.
I'm sorry, Sam, you got to go.
- Huh?
- You have to go.
I have told you multiple times
not to fornicate in my
bathroom, all right?
It violates health code. Mark
just pissed in a corner. You got to go.
- No We were just vaping.
- I have
no idea what you're talking about.
- God, get out.
- You know what?
This is bullshit, Ronnie.
I'm gonna find a new local,
- All right?
- Okay.
- See you tomorrow.
- Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow, Ron!
Hey, you are a little liar, Katrina.
Oh, sorry, okay? I didn't want
to be traceable, you know?
I didn't know if you were
a creep. Safety first.
- I still might be a creep.
- Are you?
- Nah.
- Whew.
You know what,
- this is better than a bar.
- Right? Right?
We're outside, we got
fresh air, it's beautiful out.
- I miss the bar.
- Ugh! Me too!
- I miss it so much.
- God, what do people do on walks?
I hate walking. It's like,
why do you even have to work out
to stay in shape?
Like, why can't I just be fit?
- I just want to be in shape so bad.
- Yeah. Right. Totally agree.
Uh, we have a lot in common.
Yeah, we really do.
Do you have to be anywhere, like,
for-for Thanksgiving
or anything like that?
It's not even dark out. I'm good.
So, what brought you out
in the first place, anyway?
I am celebrating the great day
I had with my family.
- Mm.
- Doesn't everybody do that?
I have no idea, I haven't
seen my family yet.
I took the train from New York
and went straight to the bar
and I pregamed.
Always a very good idea with my mother.
Yeah.
Do you know what time it is?
- No. Oh.
- Aw. Mm-hmm.
- She is gonna be so pissed at me.
- Yeah, she is.
She can add it to the list of
things she's already mad at me for.
- Ooh!
- If you could make money
from pissing off your parents, I would
- be very rich.
- Oh.
You should look into
the chosen family thing.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah. That's probably my next move.
Actually, I think your
next move should be
- going home, because I am a monster.
- Mm. No.
I got kicked out of my family
the day of Thanksgiving.
So, we can be monsters together.
- Okay.
- Mm-hmm.
- It's our turn. Yep.
- It's our turn, it's our turn.
Hi, good evening.
I would love a cheeseburger with fries
and a Coke and a shake
and an ice cream sundae.
Thank you so much.
And I'll have everything that she had,
but just with, like, one more.
Respect.
- Right?
- I can't serve you
without a car.
You can't You We-we can't walk up?
- Hence the name "drive-through."
- Never doing it.
Oh, I'm so sorry for the
confusion. We are in a car.
Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, we are. Um,
- turn on the radio, sweetheart.
- Oh, you've got it, honey bear.
- I'd love to turn on the radio.
- Boop, boop.
And the Lord said
that Jesus,
he was, uh, his only son
of me and my wife and
- Different channel.
- They just Okay.
And this is, uh,
1450 Real Talk radio.
Ooh.
- Vroom, vroom, vroom.
- Vroom, vroom.
Did you get that order, ma'am?
I can literally see you on the camera.
- I need you to leave right now.
- What?
Don't make me call whoever
you call in this situation.
Okay, ok-okay get me
It's Thanksgiving, you assholes!
Oh, you are a genius.
Was that the best meal you've ever had?
- Oh, my God, it's a feast.
- Mmm.
- Mmm.
- Oh,
- should we say what we're thankful for?
- Uh,
okay. I'm thankful I don't
live in this shit town anymore.
Ouch. I still live here.
Oh, yeah? Fight me.
No, I got a new job. It's in coding.
- Sure. Don't know what that means.
- Doesn't matter,
because I got a big promotion.
- Wow. Congratulations.
- Ah.
And you even like it. Hot twist.
I like that I got it, I don't
know if I like doing it yet.
Ugh.
Now, that I can get
behind. I hate work.
Okay, no, I don't hate it.
It's just, I got thrown
into the deep end.
It's kinda depressing,
obsessing over this thing,
you know, you go out, you get it,
and it's too much.
I'm definitely gonna screw it up.
No, you're not, come on.
It sounds like you just
have imposter syndrome.
Hey, I thought I had that, but then
it turns out that
I was right about everything
I thought I couldn't do, which
is everything.
- No way.
- Uh-huh. Seriously,
I get in trouble, like, all the time.
I feel like a preschooler,
I get scolded a lot. Like,
they're always like, "You're a mess"
or "you're rude to your co-workers"
No, no, I don't buy it.
- You're not like that.
- Well no, I know
it seems like I have
my shit together but, like,
I do do those things.
All the time, and I-I honestly,
like, don't even know why.
I think that, um, I
may be just an asshole,
you know, like, genetically.
That was romantic.
Yeah, well, I'm very romantic.
Ask anybody.
Oh.
- Yeah. Are we in Before Sunrise?
- Yeah.
You know what, we could, like,
not exchange info and then
just meet at Good Time Sally's
again next Thanksgiving.
- Yes.
- Yeah.
- I love that idea.
- Mm-hmm.
Maybe we do it every year.
Well, I don't know,
let's see how the rest
of the night goes first.
But, so far, A-plus date.
So this is a date now?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- It's longer than most dates I've had.
- Okay.
What are you doing?
I got it, it's okay.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
- Oh Okay
- Hey!
- What?
- Are you joking with me right now?
No, no, listen, listen, listen,
I'm only back because
- I forgot my bag.
- As God is my witness,
- she left her bag.
- But hear me out, okay?
'Cause we're already here,
so, like, maybe we just
- have one drink? Come on.
- No.
Oh
Come here, man.
- Listen, help me out, please. I mean,
- Please.
This girl's amazing, and she deserves
a really good Thanksgiving.
- One drink.
- Yes!
Stay out of the bathroom.
Yeah, you know, Thanksgiving
used to be fun at my house,
'cause we'd have, like,
a lot of family over
and my mom and I could sit
several seats apart, and it
it was normal-ish, you know?
I used to call it "fooling the public."
But now it's just us,
and last year was brutal.
- It was brutal.
- Okay.
But this Thanksgiving
Like, the one I just had today
- Was the worst.
- No, no, no.
Picture my mom a mom
Sitting up all night,
waiting for me to come home.
That's awful. That is pretty bad.
Thank you. I know, it's so bad.
It is. Okay, but my
family probably spent
the entire night worrying about me.
Why? You seem so great.
I I don't know.
My job. My drinking. Name it.
Yeah, but you've got a great
job, you don't drink that much.
You can't have a job like that
if you're a drunk.
Yeah.
- Uh, maybe.
- Take my word for it. I've got, like,
a big job, all things
considered, and I'm thriving.
Closing! You don't have to go home
- But we can't stay here.
- Oh. Wait.
No.
Oh, yes.
No, come on, one more drink, Ronnie.
No. First of all, it's
Massachusetts state law,
and secondly, you've
had enough to drink.
Please.
I could drive a school bus.
And that, my friend,
is why I bought the mints and the
- the toothbrush. And the gum.
- Mm.
I think you might be, like,
my personal guru.
See, I'd join your cult.
- I would be such a good cult leader.
- Mm.
No, seriously, I think about
it, like, all the time.
'Cause those things dissolve into murder
and money laundering,
but it doesn't have to.
Why can't we just
live off the land and have all the sex?
And it'd be so fun.
All right, we can be
the one good-guy cult,
with all the good
of the cult but without, like,
the legal mess and whatnot.
- Yeah, yeah.
- I'm 100% in and I think
we would make bank.
Okay, so what's next?
Maybe we go to Fenway.
- Break in there?
- Uh-uh. I'm getting tired.
Or, like, a roller
skate or something like
Okay, hang on a second.
I think you're trying to
trick me into exercise again.
Oh, ha. Gross.
I didn't even mean to.
Oh, God, it's so late.
Uh, actually, I kinda
think that, like
I should go home.
Oh, no. No way. Come o We
It's not even light out.
Right? Like, we just got here.
- Come
- Where?
Right here. Y
Where we're, uh, standing.
Uh
Uh, come on, come on, come on.
We've had such a great night.
Like, it can't end here.
I don't I don't know.
Please, please. I really
I can't go home.
I know what if we just
walked into the street,
waited for a car to come,
and then just got out of the way
right before it came?
- Yeah. Yeah. For real,
- Like in The Notebook.
- Can you imagine?
- Yeah. Yeah. Come on, it'll be fun.
No, dude, that's, like,
a really bad idea, okay?
- No, no. You're being
- Why don't we do something like
- a spoilsport.
- Jump off a bridge?
Dude, dude!
What are you doing?!
- What is wrong with you?
- You don't want to try it?
No, I don't want to try it.
I don't have a death wish.
- I-It's not like that.
- That was insane.
Do you know how insane that is?
No, I don't
I-I don't even know.
- Okay.
- Uh
I'm sorry. We were
having such a nice time,
- Yeah, it's okay.
- That
No, it really isn't.
No, it's not, actually.
That was messed-up, man. You need help.
I don't know, you should,
like, talk to somebody
A therapist or
I don't know, people are always
saying that to me, but I'm fine.
My family doesn't really
believe in therapy.
They might if they knew the alternative.
Sorry, I just feel like
you need something.
Yeah.
You should go.
Yeah. I'm s-so sorry.
- No, please. Don't be.
- Yeah.
You know, I-I had so much fun tonight,
except for this whole end bit,
which was terrible.
- Uh
- Yeah.
I'll see you at the
bar in one year's time.
Yeah, I'll see you then.
Yo, bro.
Yo. Thanks for coming out, man.
I don't know how to do this.
Hey, man, baby steps and all that.
Besides, if we don't
like it, we just leave.
Y-Yeah.
But you can't leave in the middle.
Yes, you can.
Do you see guards or anything?
Yeah. There are so many guards.
Like, look at her.
- Hi, good to see you.
- Here's my question. Like,
did you have to dress
like an alcoholic, though?
- I don't like this on you.
- It happens.
I love it. You bought it for me.
I realize now it
just makes you look like
- a giant fourth-grader.
- Best year of my life.
But, like, a fourth-grader
who's good at math.
Good. Hey, what's up?
I'm sorry.
Hi. I'm Olivia.
First time?
Yeah.
Welcome.
There's snacks.
There's snacks. Come on.
Gushers, Cheez-Its, little, uh

I, Katerina, do consent to one James
in front of God and everyone here
forever and ever in perpetuity.
That sounds a lot like a prayer, man.
Here we go. I, Katrina, vow to G
to God and the
I say yes to the dress. Amen.
Yes.
Onward, Christian soldier.
That was fun.
Oh, yeah. Yeah, it was my
first time doing that, so
Yeah, yeah, same. Obviously.
Hey, listen, I'm gonna go out first.
You have to wait a
second so no one notices.
Ronnie!
This was on the floor
when I got in there.
Can you believe that? I mean,
you got to tighten up your shit, man.
- That's embarrassing for you.
- Oh, yeah.
No, I-I I'll get on those apps
and, uh, code away, man. I got you.
- Hey.
- Mm.
I thought you went home.
I was looking all over for you.
I'm sorry, Sam, you got to go.
- Huh?
- You have to go.
I have told you multiple times
not to fornicate in my
bathroom, all right?
It violates health code. Mark
just pissed in a corner. You got to go.
- No We were just vaping.
- I have
no idea what you're talking about.
- God, get out.
- You know what?
This is bullshit, Ronnie.
I'm gonna find a new local,
- All right?
- Okay.
- See you tomorrow.
- Yeah, I'll see you tomorrow, Ron!
Hey, you are a little liar, Katrina.
Oh, sorry, okay? I didn't want
to be traceable, you know?
I didn't know if you were
a creep. Safety first.
- I still might be a creep.
- Are you?
- Nah.
- Whew.
You know what,
- this is better than a bar.
- Right? Right?
We're outside, we got
fresh air, it's beautiful out.
- I miss the bar.
- Ugh! Me too!
- I miss it so much.
- God, what do people do on walks?
I hate walking. It's like,
why do you even have to work out
to stay in shape?
Like, why can't I just be fit?
- I just want to be in shape so bad.
- Yeah. Right. Totally agree.
Uh, we have a lot in common.
Yeah, we really do.
Do you have to be anywhere, like,
for-for Thanksgiving
or anything like that?
It's not even dark out. I'm good.
So, what brought you out
in the first place, anyway?
I am celebrating the great day
I had with my family.
- Mm.
- Doesn't everybody do that?
I have no idea, I haven't
seen my family yet.
I took the train from New York
and went straight to the bar
and I pregamed.
Always a very good idea with my mother.
Yeah.
Do you know what time it is?
- No. Oh.
- Aw. Mm-hmm.
- She is gonna be so pissed at me.
- Yeah, she is.
She can add it to the list of
things she's already mad at me for.
- Ooh!
- If you could make money
from pissing off your parents, I would
- be very rich.
- Oh.
You should look into
the chosen family thing.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah. That's probably my next move.
Actually, I think your
next move should be
- going home, because I am a monster.
- Mm. No.
I got kicked out of my family
the day of Thanksgiving.
So, we can be monsters together.
- Okay.
- Mm-hmm.
- It's our turn. Yep.
- It's our turn, it's our turn.
Hi, good evening.
I would love a cheeseburger with fries
and a Coke and a shake
and an ice cream sundae.
Thank you so much.
And I'll have everything that she had,
but just with, like, one more.
Respect.
- Right?
- I can't serve you
without a car.
You can't You We-we can't walk up?
- Hence the name "drive-through."
- Never doing it.
Oh, I'm so sorry for the
confusion. We are in a car.
Oh, yeah, yeah. Yeah, we are. Um,
- turn on the radio, sweetheart.
- Oh, you've got it, honey bear.
- I'd love to turn on the radio.
- Boop, boop.
And the Lord said
that Jesus,
he was, uh, his only son
of me and my wife and
- Different channel.
- They just Okay.
And this is, uh,
1450 Real Talk radio.
Ooh.
- Vroom, vroom, vroom.
- Vroom, vroom.
Did you get that order, ma'am?
I can literally see you on the camera.
- I need you to leave right now.
- What?
Don't make me call whoever
you call in this situation.
Okay, ok-okay get me
It's Thanksgiving, you assholes!
Oh, you are a genius.
Was that the best meal you've ever had?
- Oh, my God, it's a feast.
- Mmm.
- Mmm.
- Oh,
- should we say what we're thankful for?
- Uh,
okay. I'm thankful I don't
live in this shit town anymore.
Ouch. I still live here.
Oh, yeah? Fight me.
No, I got a new job. It's in coding.
- Sure. Don't know what that means.
- Doesn't matter,
because I got a big promotion.
- Wow. Congratulations.
- Ah.
And you even like it. Hot twist.
I like that I got it, I don't
know if I like doing it yet.
Ugh.
Now, that I can get
behind. I hate work.
Okay, no, I don't hate it.
It's just, I got thrown
into the deep end.
It's kinda depressing,
obsessing over this thing,
you know, you go out, you get it,
and it's too much.
I'm definitely gonna screw it up.
No, you're not, come on.
It sounds like you just
have imposter syndrome.
Hey, I thought I had that, but then
it turns out that
I was right about everything
I thought I couldn't do, which
is everything.
- No way.
- Uh-huh. Seriously,
I get in trouble, like, all the time.
I feel like a preschooler,
I get scolded a lot. Like,
they're always like, "You're a mess"
or "you're rude to your co-workers"
No, no, I don't buy it.
- You're not like that.
- Well no, I know
it seems like I have
my shit together but, like,
I do do those things.
All the time, and I-I honestly,
like, don't even know why.
I think that, um, I
may be just an asshole,
you know, like, genetically.
That was romantic.
Yeah, well, I'm very romantic.
Ask anybody.
Oh.
- Yeah. Are we in Before Sunrise?
- Yeah.
You know what, we could, like,
not exchange info and then
just meet at Good Time Sally's
again next Thanksgiving.
- Yes.
- Yeah.
- I love that idea.
- Mm-hmm.
Maybe we do it every year.
Well, I don't know,
let's see how the rest
of the night goes first.
But, so far, A-plus date.
So this is a date now?
- Yeah.
- Okay.
- It's longer than most dates I've had.
- Okay.
What are you doing?
I got it, it's okay.
Come on, come on, come on, come on.
- Oh Okay
- Hey!
- What?
- Are you joking with me right now?
No, no, listen, listen, listen,
I'm only back because
- I forgot my bag.
- As God is my witness,
- she left her bag.
- But hear me out, okay?
'Cause we're already here,
so, like, maybe we just
- have one drink? Come on.
- No.
Oh
Come here, man.
- Listen, help me out, please. I mean,
- Please.
This girl's amazing, and she deserves
a really good Thanksgiving.
- One drink.
- Yes!
Stay out of the bathroom.
Yeah, you know, Thanksgiving
used to be fun at my house,
'cause we'd have, like,
a lot of family over
and my mom and I could sit
several seats apart, and it
it was normal-ish, you know?
I used to call it "fooling the public."
But now it's just us,
and last year was brutal.
- It was brutal.
- Okay.
But this Thanksgiving
Like, the one I just had today
- Was the worst.
- No, no, no.
Picture my mom a mom
Sitting up all night,
waiting for me to come home.
That's awful. That is pretty bad.
Thank you. I know, it's so bad.
It is. Okay, but my
family probably spent
the entire night worrying about me.
Why? You seem so great.
I I don't know.
My job. My drinking. Name it.
Yeah, but you've got a great
job, you don't drink that much.
You can't have a job like that
if you're a drunk.
Yeah.
- Uh, maybe.
- Take my word for it. I've got, like,
a big job, all things
considered, and I'm thriving.
Closing! You don't have to go home
- But we can't stay here.
- Oh. Wait.
No.
Oh, yes.
No, come on, one more drink, Ronnie.
No. First of all, it's
Massachusetts state law,
and secondly, you've
had enough to drink.
Please.
I could drive a school bus.
And that, my friend,
is why I bought the mints and the
- the toothbrush. And the gum.
- Mm.
I think you might be, like,
my personal guru.
See, I'd join your cult.
- I would be such a good cult leader.
- Mm.
No, seriously, I think about
it, like, all the time.
'Cause those things dissolve into murder
and money laundering,
but it doesn't have to.
Why can't we just
live off the land and have all the sex?
And it'd be so fun.
All right, we can be
the one good-guy cult,
with all the good
of the cult but without, like,
the legal mess and whatnot.
- Yeah, yeah.
- I'm 100% in and I think
we would make bank.
Okay, so what's next?
Maybe we go to Fenway.
- Break in there?
- Uh-uh. I'm getting tired.
Or, like, a roller
skate or something like
Okay, hang on a second.
I think you're trying to
trick me into exercise again.
Oh, ha. Gross.
I didn't even mean to.
Oh, God, it's so late.
Uh, actually, I kinda
think that, like
I should go home.
Oh, no. No way. Come o We
It's not even light out.
Right? Like, we just got here.
- Come
- Where?
Right here. Y
Where we're, uh, standing.
Uh
Uh, come on, come on, come on.
We've had such a great night.
Like, it can't end here.
I don't I don't know.
Please, please. I really
I can't go home.
I know what if we just
walked into the street,
waited for a car to come,
and then just got out of the way
right before it came?
- Yeah. Yeah. For real,
- Like in The Notebook.
- Can you imagine?
- Yeah. Yeah. Come on, it'll be fun.
No, dude, that's, like,
a really bad idea, okay?
- No, no. You're being
- Why don't we do something like
- a spoilsport.
- Jump off a bridge?
Dude, dude!
What are you doing?!
- What is wrong with you?
- You don't want to try it?
No, I don't want to try it.
I don't have a death wish.
- I-It's not like that.
- That was insane.
Do you know how insane that is?
No, I don't
I-I don't even know.
- Okay.
- Uh
I'm sorry. We were
having such a nice time,
- Yeah, it's okay.
- That
No, it really isn't.
No, it's not, actually.
That was messed-up, man. You need help.
I don't know, you should,
like, talk to somebody
A therapist or
I don't know, people are always
saying that to me, but I'm fine.
My family doesn't really
believe in therapy.
They might if they knew the alternative.
Sorry, I just feel like
you need something.
Yeah.
You should go.
Yeah. I'm s-so sorry.
- No, please. Don't be.
- Yeah.
You know, I-I had so much fun tonight,
except for this whole end bit,
which was terrible.
- Uh
- Yeah.
I'll see you at the
bar in one year's time.
Yeah, I'll see you then.
Yo, bro.
Yo. Thanks for coming out, man.
I don't know how to do this.
Hey, man, baby steps and all that.
Besides, if we don't
like it, we just leave.
Y-Yeah.
But you can't leave in the middle.
Yes, you can.
Do you see guards or anything?
Yeah. There are so many guards.
Like, look at her.
- Hi, good to see you.
- Here's my question. Like,
did you have to dress
like an alcoholic, though?
- I don't like this on you.
- It happens.
I love it. You bought it for me.
I realize now it
just makes you look like
- a giant fourth-grader.
- Best year of my life.
But, like, a fourth-grader
who's good at math.
Good. Hey, what's up?
I'm sorry.
Hi. I'm Olivia.
First time?
Yeah.
Welcome.
There's snacks.
There's snacks. Come on.
Gushers, Cheez-Its, little, uh
- Peanut butter sandwich things.
- Oh, I do love those.
