- You did say Madison's cousin, right? - Kiss to the chef.
- So, what was that today? - Too loose.
No, not the dress.
Aiden.
You practically undressed him with your eyes.
- What do you think about this? - I think I'm detecting a hookup and no.
- Come on Ash, we're just friends.
- Who have made out.
And threw up! I was drunk when that happened.
And I repeat: We are just friends.
Please, yeah, but that's how people start out.
Then They get all hot and heavy for each other.
And then they get tired, cheat, lie, break up.
It's the circle of life.
True but I'm not into him like that, no.
Really? Really.
And hey, I'm still trying to figure out this whole crushing on girls thing.
I know.
And while you're in the whole undecided category.
You might wanna be careful who you experiment with.
- It can get complicated.
- Excuse me, but weren't you with Aiden? - That didn't seem too confusing for you.
- Yeah, that was me.
Not you.
Look, all I'm saying is that if you want to have fun.
And you think you can get him to play then Well, go for it.
Oh, I think I can get him to go for it.
That is definitely the most interesting thing I've ever heard you say.
Well, he seemed into me when we Wait.
Wait, you don't think I'm interesting? That would be Aiden.
I'll get it She said, trying to be interesting.
Thanks for coming out, baby.
You know I never miss Friday services, grandma.
You come here every week? That's great.
But we gotta a school function to attend to so we can't stay for cake.
Well, I wish you'd come inside so I could introduce your friend to the pastor.
I would I would love to.
But we will really do have to go, thank you.
Come on now, sweetie.
You young people need to get closer to the Lord.
He helps out when trouble comes.
And it always does.
- Grandma, Clay is Muslim.
- Yeah, Salaam Aleikum.
Oh, I see.
But we gotta go grandma See you next week.
Well, Salaam, you're welcome to come to my church anytime.
My grandma was real religiousfied.
She must've looked like a soul worth saving.
It's cool.
I thought my family was the only one who went to church every week.
Man, hardly.
You never know when you'll need a little help from the Man above.
I bet you thought I was going down to criminalize.
Sucker.
- You look awesome! - Thanks.
You too.
So? - It's you.
- Great, let's go.
Okay, no.
Your comments are way too common.
And I don't feel common tonight.
To know Ashley is to wait for Ashley.
What? You look really beautiful tonight.
Compared to when I threw up on you? It didn't take much.
It's ok, no worries.
Thank you.
They went into overtime here against the team that has lost only one in eight - What's the score? - Direwolf blacked out.

You're seriously not gonna make that shot.
You're like a thousand feet away.
Not that I ever encouraged my children to gamble.
But would you care to make a non-monetary wager? - Dishes? - Dishes.
And your allowance.
No way! Dad got game? Where do you think you'd get it from? You should spend a few more Friday nights at home and see what you've been missing.
I think I'll pass.
- So Dad, what's going on with you and mom? - What do you mean? I don't know, I mean It seems like you guys have been a little bit tense since we moved here.

I know of at least one.
So What do you guys think of this one? Maybe too Cause I'm not sure if it says "touch me" or "tease me".
Kinda like you two.
- I don't hate it.
- Oh, wait, tragedy.

Except for "in Buster Brown shoes".
Okay, you don't like my shoes.
You shouldn't talk with that cheap-ass bracelet.

Don't even sweat it, we can always get the DVD collection.
Where the hell are we? I'm just cutting through downtown, man.
A little shortcut I know.
Man, can you just move out the way, man? What's going on? Rise up, rise up.
