Talk things out.
TIM: Well, it's just, no one replies to my e-mails in this office, and I feel like I get no respect.

You have to go.
VANCE: I'd love to go, you know? But I'm attached to a literal bomb! GRALT: Right.
SERGEANT: Gralt, lives are at stake.
GRALT: Sir, in my travels, I learned the essence of human bravery is to never give up on anything.
And to always cut the red wire.

- Hello, Toronto! - BOY: [gasps.]
GULED: [laughs.]
That's the first song.
It's called, "Hello, Hello.
" Ah Still holds up.
FRANCO: So, all my relatives are meeting me.
And, I'm like, "I don't know who these people are.
" TARA: Oh my god! FRANCO: And they know my name.
It's weird.
TARA: You're so brave.
FRANCO: It was intense, but I'm glad I got to go back to Vietnam.
TARA: We had a Korean foreign exchange student in Uxbridge had a really big crush on him.
FRANCO: Cool.
So have you been on this dating app a while? TARA: Yeah, um, but I've kind of swiped right through all the Asian guys in the city, so FRANCO: Oh, interesting.
I'm in.
I usually don't go on dates with white girls because they're less likely to swipe right on me, but today I'm on a date with someone who has TARA: Oh, I love Jay Park.
FRANCO: yellow fever.
I'm being fetishized in a weird positive way.
Usually doesn't happen to me, but when it does, I can expect K-Pop references, stories about teaching - English in Asia, and - TARA: Anasayo.
FRANCO: Bad Korean.
I'm Vietnamese, but I guess I'll go with it.
Hey, don't judge me.
The system was broke when I got here.
Don't hate the player.
Hate the game.
You have no idea what I had to go through to get here.
I had to watch all of Romeo Must Die, and not even get to see Jet Li and Aaliyah kiss.
That one really hurt.
So, tonight, I'm doing this for Jet Li, Bruce Lee, Ang Lee, and all my Asian brothers who have been rejected because of their race.
And besides, what's so bad about being fetishized? TARA: I love Asian penis.
FRANCO: Okay, maybe you're right, but I'm still gonna go home with her.
And it's not because of her skin colour.
It's because of the content of her character.
TARA: Really? What's my name? FRANCO: Uh, I'm gonna say Margin? TARA: Wow, It's Tara.
FRANCO: So close.
TIM: Amazing quality.
GULED: HD, yeah, you can see all the points being scored.
TIM: Oh, there you are, Vance.
I'm was worried you were gonna miss the big game.
VANCE: Miss the big game? Who do you think I am? My father? Guys, guess what? I got approved for that bank loan today.
TIM: Whoa, congrats.
- ALL: Shh.
- [laughter.]
GULED: Man, I love our secret handshake.
FRANCO: Right? It's the only public display of affection that's cool to do with your boys.
- TIM: Well, that and kissing.
- FRANCO: Yeah.
GULED: Very true.
Oh, yeah.
VANCE: That's a good one.
TV MOM: Kids, the pizza hoop's here! - KIDS: Hoop, hoop, hooray! - [laughter.]
TV MOM: It's the only pizza you can eat your way out of.
TV DAUGHTER: Go, Mom, go! NARRATOR: The Pizza Hoop! It's better than a bowl of soup.
MOM & DAUGHTER: Shh.
NARRATOR: Feeds one hungry guy or a large group.
GULED: Did you see that? VANCE: Yeah, uh, Pizza Hoop's the only pizza that you got to eat your way out of.
FRANCO: No, they just did our secret handshake.
TIM: Well, how could they even know about it? That's impossible.
GULED: Unless someone leaked our secret shake.
VANCE: [scoffs.]
Guled! What, you jumping to conclusions? [laugh nervously.]
That's a coincidence.
FRANCO: I doubt it.
VANCE: Anyway, I got to I got to hit the hay.
[yawns.]
Goodnight.
- TIM: It's 4:30.
- VANCE: Okay.
GULED: And he still has the remote.
You don't think he did it, right? - FRANCO: He did it.
- TIM: Yeah, absolutely.
GULED: Just wanted to make sure.
Okay, good.
VANCE: Let me go right to the right song Uh, guys?! Someone's in the apartment! VANCE: [whimpering.]
TIM: Guled, did you put a plastic bag in there? GULED: I didn't want him breathing on this.
I put my oranges in it.
VANCE: [gasps.]
I saw the other side.
- Why would you do that? - FRANCO: Shut up! We're asking the questions around here.
TIM: Yeah.
Did you leak the handshake? VANCE: Yeah, but how did you know it was me? TIM: Well, the fact that you can't keep a secret - to save your life.
- VANCE: I can too! GULED: What about the time you told the whole neighbourhood I wet the bed.
VANCE: That wasn't me.
That was all Franco.
FRANCO: [gasps.]
I told you that in confidence! GULED: My point exactly.
VANCE: Fine! But you guys got to understand, it's just that, like, you know, I've never been approved for a bank loan before.
Well, Tim's my best friend, and Guled's my best friend, and Franco's my best friend, except Franco told everyone that Guled wets the bed.
BANKER: [laughs.]
Oh, wow.
I don't know any of those people, but you seem like a very honest man.
I'd really love to approve this loan for you.
But I just wish there was some sort of symbolic gesture of trust that we could both share.
VANCE: How do you feel about secret handshakes? BANKER: Hm.
VANCE & BANKER: Shh.
VANCE: I felt awful after we shook.
You got to believe me! - I'm really sorry.
- TIM: It's all right.
I mean, he only showed one person.
VANCE: Well, actually VANCE & WOMAN: Shhh.
WOMAN: Oh my God.
So cute.
VANCE: I am so sorry for your loss.
VANCE & WOMAN: Shh.
VANCE: Shake and make peace.
- [cameras clicking.]
- KOREAN LEADERS: Shh.
GULED: You're hopeless.
VANCE: Guys, I know I made a mistake, but we can fix this.
[sighs.]
TIM: You know, he's right.
We can fix it.
GULED: Yeah, probably.
VANCE: Shake on it? FRANCO: Who was supposed to tie him up? REGGIE: Is it bad? - SAM: It's bad.
- ADAM: Yeah, pretty bad.
REGGIE: If anyone has anything to say, now is the time.
ADAM: Um See you later, Reggie.
SAM: Well It's been a privilege serving as your commander, but it's been an honour to call you my friend.
REGGIE: See, that's nice.
Real nice.
My freaking guts hanging out of my body, and the last thing you want to say to me is, "See you later.
" ADAM: Well, I had to say something.
REGGIE: Oh, you had to say something to me before I'm dead.
Wow.
ADAM: I-I didn't mean it like that.
REGGIE: Like what, Adam? Because Sam was pretty clear on what he meant.
Surprise, surprise, Adam.
You're not even listening.
ADAM: Oh I just I just made a new friend.
SAM: Oh, end of the line.
REGGIE: I know you.
You shot me.
He's here to pay his respects.
SAM: [gasps.]
GULED: [whispering inaudibly.]
REGGIE: Now, that's a goodbye.
GULED: [humming Amazing Grace.]
ADAM: Guys you hear what he said? 'Cause I didn't catch a lick of that, so He was, like, almost whispering, so Do you guys think we all get a paper crane? No? Can I take yours, when you're dead? REGGIE: No, it's my crane.
ADAM: I'm just gonna take it off your body.
REGGIE: No, don't take it off my body.
ADAM: Fine.
I won't take it off your dead body.
REGGIE: Why are you winking? Why are you winking? ADAM: That was to him.
Not not to you.
REGGIE: Goddamn it, Adam, show some humanity! The guy that shot me had a more meaningful goodbye than you did! You've been my best friend my whole life.
And I don't want to go to dead angry at you.
So before I'm gone forever, are there any words, memories, anything at all you'd like to say to me before I go? - ADAM: Have a good summer.
- REGGIE: You know what, I I told you about this guy.
SAM: Why'd you say that to me? What, are you kidding me? ADAM: I know what will make you feel better.
This works for my little cousin.
It's called a raspberry.
Here we go.
- ADAM & SAM: No! - [loud raspberry sound.]
SAM: Stop! TV MOM: Pizza Hoop.
TV DAUGHTER: It's better than a bowl of soup.
[cheering.]
NARRATOR: The Pizza Hoop It's better than a bowl of soup.
TV DAUGHTER & MOM: Shh.
- LAWYER: Well yes.
- FRANCO & GULED: Shh.
LAWYER: The similarities are uncanny, but unfortunately, you can't copyright a handshake.
TIM: But we invented it.
GULED: Yeah, it was a cool thing just between us.
Now, everyone and their grandma's doing it.
VANCE: Normally, I'd be happy to see folks doing stuff with their grandmas, but this is bullshit.
LAWYER: Well, it's not all bad news.
I filed a cease and desist against Pizza Hoop, and they've come back with a very generous offer.
FRANCO: How many zeros we talking? LAWYER: Zero zero's.
- GULED: [sighs.]
- VANCE: Hm.
LAWYER: However, they will drop the countersuit if we drop the lawsuit.
And as compensation, they're giving you a free Pizza Hoop.
- ALL: Yeah! - Woo-hoo! Pizza! [all cheering.]
- Pizza Hoop! - GULED & TIM: Shh.
LAWYER: Bup, bup Legally, you're not allowed to do that anymore.
TIM: But I thought you couldn't copyright a handshake.
LAWYER: You can't.
Corporations can do whatever they want.
FRANCO: [dejectedly.]
Pizza Hoop ALL: [dejectedly.]
It's better than a bowl of soup.
LAWYER: Okay, now get out of my office.
