00:24:22,727 --> 00:24:25,262
- William.
- Jesse.

478
00:24:28,087 --> 00:24:29,961
- Please, don't, uh...
- Ah.

479
00:24:29,995 --> 00:24:31,529
- ...let me stop you...
- (LAUGHS)

480
00:24:31,563 --> 00:24:32,829
(PLAYING)

481
00:24:54,206 --> 00:24:55,501
Jesse?

482
00:24:56,212 --> 00:24:57,861
Technically, cocaine is my problem,

483
00:24:57,886 --> 00:25:01,288
not, uh, sparkling rosé, so...

484
00:25:03,872 --> 00:25:05,790
- Come on.
- Where are we going?

485
00:25:06,331 --> 00:25:09,243
You need something besides
cheap wine in your stomach.

486
00:25:10,275 --> 00:25:11,360
Come on.

487
00:25:14,540 --> 00:25:15,603
All right.

488
00:25:15,713 --> 00:25:18,282
<i>I was a bond trader in London.</i>

489
00:25:18,425 --> 00:25:21,384
The job was all-consuming
and put strains

490
00:25:21,409 --> 00:25:24,212
on an already complicated

491
00:25:24,237 --> 00:25:27,587
and mismatched marriage.

492
00:25:27,623 --> 00:25:30,290
Cocaine helped me keep pace
with the workload

493
00:25:30,315 --> 00:25:33,183
until the workload couldn't
keep pace with my addiction.

494
00:25:33,743 --> 00:25:35,064
I lost everything.

495
00:25:36,236 --> 00:25:37,517
Moved to the States.

496
00:25:37,663 --> 00:25:41,332
I lived with my sister
for a while in Chicago,

497
00:25:41,366 --> 00:25:44,025
and then I came to Philly,
where I worked

498
00:25:44,368 --> 00:25:46,537
front of house in a restaurant
because my accent

499
00:25:46,572 --> 00:25:48,275
- classed the place up.
- Accent classed the place up.

500
00:25:48,341 --> 00:25:50,142
Yeah, I was at that meeting.

501
00:25:54,780 --> 00:25:56,322
Let's hear the true story.

502
00:26:05,002 --> 00:26:06,228
Okay, fine.

503
00:26:07,259 --> 00:26:11,395
You're... an inexplicably pleasant man

504
00:26:11,430 --> 00:26:12,759
worthy of the truth.

505
00:26:17,900 --> 00:26:20,304
I started using cocaine
in the late '70s.

506
00:26:20,339 --> 00:26:22,533
I-I liked cocaine.

507
00:26:22,558 --> 00:26:24,814
(LAUGHS): I... That's not true.

508
00:26:25,884 --> 00:26:30,345
I liked Manchester United.
I love cocaine.

509
00:26:30,408 --> 00:26:32,618
Half my paycheck went to the stuff,

510
00:26:33,283 --> 00:26:34,939
until I learned that...

511
00:26:37,545 --> 00:26:40,829
smoking crack cocaine was cheaper.

512
00:26:42,640 --> 00:26:47,150
Also, I was never a bond trader.

513
00:26:49,972 --> 00:26:52,283
But one thing I said is true:

514
00:26:52,884 --> 00:26:55,540
my marriage to Anissa was...

515
00:26:56,798 --> 00:26:58,337
a complicated mismatch,

516
00:26:58,789 --> 00:27:01,595
and I do have a sister in Chicago.

517
00:27:07,619 --> 00:27:12,478
I... I don't know why
Thanksgiving depresses me.

518
00:27:12,824 --> 00:27:14,425
It's not my holiday.

519
00:27:15,275 --> 00:27:18,103
In fact, isn't it to celebrate you

520
00:27:18,509 --> 00:27:21,579
for defeating us in your independence?

521
00:27:21,781 --> 00:27:23,517
(CHUCKLES): No. It was not.

522
00:27:25,689 --> 00:27:29,845
Anyway, I <i>was</i> invited
to my sister's house,

523
00:27:31,706 --> 00:27:35,150
but the people there
will ask me how I'm doing,

524
00:27:35,175 --> 00:27:40,313
and... I'm in no mood to spin lies

525
00:27:40,338 --> 00:27:42,206
about the joys of being sober.

526
00:27:42,907 --> 00:27:45,336
You stay sober,
you won't have to lie about it.

527
00:27:49,009 --> 00:27:51,329
Look, tonight a bunch of us
sober musicians

528
00:27:51,354 --> 00:27:53,728
are getting together.
On the holidays we like to play,

529
00:27:54,470 --> 00:27:56,556
uh, mostly to keep us from
getting into trouble.

530
00:27:57,080 --> 00:27:58,283
You're welcome to come.

531
00:27:58,954 --> 00:28:00,142
Good Lord.

532
00:28:01,126 --> 00:28:03,892
Listening to jazz sober sounds awful.

533
00:28:03,981 --> 00:28:05,056
(LAUGHS)

534
00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:06,587
What can I bring?

535
00:28:06,762 --> 00:28:08,853
Just yourself. We need the audience.

536
00:28:14,053 --> 00:28:15,290
(JAZZ MUSIC PLAYING)

537
00:28:39,609 --> 00:28:41,204
(SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY)

538
00:28:51,230 --> 00:28:53,636
So, what needs to start first?

539
00:28:53,644 --> 00:28:56,339
The cranberry sauce. You are in charge.

540
00:28:56,558 --> 00:28:58,738
- This is not a can.
- Right.

541
00:28:59,316 --> 00:29:01,506
I'm making cranberry sauce from scratch?

542
00:29:01,531 --> 00:29:03,069
Isn't that kind of a high-stakes duty?

543
00:29:03,094 --> 00:29:04,473
Well, Randall has a recipe binder.

544
00:29:04,508 --> 00:29:05,608
Recipe binder, okay.

545
00:29:05,642 --> 00:29:07,084
Randall's recipes.

546
00:29:07,511 --> 00:29:09,787
Okay. Of course, color-coded,

547
00:29:09,812 --> 00:29:12,647
uh, with an entire section for confit.

548
00:29:12,722 --> 00:29:15,057
And he's marked our page for us.

549
00:29:15,318 --> 00:29:16,998
"Cranberry sauce with mint."

550
00:29:18,202 --> 00:29:21,223
Randall's recipe for cranberry
sauce has, like, 30 ingredients,

551
00:29:21,258 --> 00:29:24,193
including "fresh mint from my garden".

552
00:29:24,227 --> 00:29:25,897
- Randall has an herb garden?
- Yeah.

553
00:29:26,397 --> 00:29:27,444
Okay.

554
00:29:27,469 --> 00:29:29,665
Okay, come here.
What is happening? Come here.

555

Oh, okay, look. Randall is
the perfect embodiment

556

of the perfect man.
He's basically your dad,

- and I'm...
- Toby.

Hey, me and you?

559
00:29:41,850 --> 00:29:42,991

We're gonna be great hosts.

00:29:46,842 --> 00:29:48,311
Okay? And we're gonna be great parents.

563
00:29:48,467 --> 00:29:49,741
And today, we're gonna prove it.

564
00:29:49,766 --> 00:29:51,428
- Yeah. You're right.
- Okay? So let's do us.

00:29:51,453 --> 00:29:53,189
- Okay. Do us.
- Me and you.

00:29:55,092 --> 00:29:56,991
One, two, KaToby.

568
00:29:57,537 --> 00:30:00,827
Tess, I got something for you.

569
00:30:03,322 --> 00:30:04,823
Oh. Oh.

570
00:30:05,723 --> 00:30:07,827
- (SCREAMS)
- Ah! What, what, what?

571
00:30:13,210 --> 00:30:15,717
Hey. Uh, Tess needs your help.

572
00:30:17,186 --> 00:30:18,314
Why? Is she okay?

573
00:30:18,348 --> 00:30:22,117
Yeah, fine. She just has...
she has two boxes of... things

574
00:30:22,152 --> 00:30:27,319
that, uh, a-a young woman might
need every full moon-ish.

575
00:30:29,696 --> 00:30:31,553
- Oh. Ugh.
- Yeah.

576
00:30:31,928 --> 00:30:34,498
I think this might be her first period.

577
00:30:34,601 --> 00:30:36,373
Yeah, yeah. She looked confused.

578
00:30:45,923 --> 00:30:47,248
Hey.

579
00:30:48,678 --> 00:30:50,069
Is everything okay?

580
00:30:51,208 --> 00:30:54,076
TESS: I'm fine, just leave me alone.

581
00:30:55,905 --> 00:30:57,194
I will, I just...

582
00:30:58,903 --> 00:31:00,303
Is this your first one?

583
00:31:01,123 --> 00:31:02,272
TESS: Yes.

584
00:31:03,553 --> 00:31:04,760
Did you call your mom?

585
00:31:05,327 --> 00:31:06,491
TESS: They didn't answer.

586
00:31:06,516 --> 00:31:08,484
I tried calling them, like, five times.

587
00:31:08,509 --> 00:31:09,881
I texted them, though.

588
00:31:10,845 --> 00:31:12,311
I'm sure she'll call soon.

589
00:31:14,820 --> 00:31:16,444
Is there anything I can help with?

590
00:31:25,115 --> 00:31:26,468
- Yeah.
- (BOTH GIGGLE)

591
00:31:30,225 --> 00:31:31,639
Do you want to come down and help us?

592
00:31:31,664 --> 00:31:33,632
I'm never leaving this room.

593
00:31:33,957 --> 00:31:35,741
I'm too embarrassed to see Toby.

594
00:31:35,967 --> 00:31:37,319
- Oh...
- Wait, embarrassed?

595
00:31:37,350 --> 00:31:40,763
Hey. Tess, you have nothing
to be embarrassed about.

596
00:31:41,717 --> 00:31:43,599
And this is coming from a woman who had

597
00:31:43,633 --> 00:31:47,022
the most embarrassing first period ever.

598
00:31:47,866 --> 00:31:49,678
So, when I was around your age,

599
00:31:49,881 --> 00:31:52,225
we were staying at a beach house
with Miguel's family

600
00:31:52,522 --> 00:31:54,043
and I was sharing a room with Amber,

601
00:31:54,077 --> 00:31:55,795
Miguel's daughter, who I worshiped.

602
00:31:55,820 --> 00:31:57,655
I mean, she taught me
how to put on mascara.

603
00:31:57,764 --> 00:31:59,733
So, I was asleep when it happened.

604
00:31:59,758 --> 00:32:01,991
So I stripped the bed, and then
I'm tip-toeing down the hall,

605
00:32:02,016 --> 00:32:04,428
and who do I run into?
Her older brother Andy.

606
00:32:04,474 --> 00:32:06,075
Who was a lifeguard.

607
00:32:06,100 --> 00:32:08,905
And of course, here I am
with this wadded-up bedding,

608
00:32:08,930 --> 00:32:12,202
and he just says, "Oh, what,
did you wet the bed, Pearson?"

609
00:32:12,725 --> 00:32:15,295
N-Now, if I say yes, everybody
at school is gonna think

610
00:32:15,320 --> 00:32:17,467
that I'm a bed-wetter at the age of 12.

611
00:32:17,492 --> 00:32:20,278
So what do I say? I say, "No, actually,

612
00:32:20,303 --> 00:32:23,662
"I just had my period and I need
a tampon. Do you have one?"

613
00:32:23,873 --> 00:32:25,241
(LAUGHING): He didn't know what to say.

614
00:32:25,373 --> 00:32:27,584
So, he's like stammering
and he tries to laugh if off,

615
00:32:27,609 --> 00:32:29,506
but then he just, like,
pushes past me. (LAUGHS)

616
00:32:31,073 --> 00:32:34,334
So, uh, needless to say, we've
never talked about it since.

617
00:32:34,467 --> 00:32:35,881
Anyway, I got you beat.

618
00:32:35,906 --> 00:32:37,608
- Yeah, definitely. (CHUCKLES)
- Yeah.

619
00:32:39,572 --> 00:32:40,872
(SIGHS)

620
00:32:41,252 --> 00:32:45,637
Anyhow, I know you have a mom,
but if there's anything

621
00:32:45,662 --> 00:32:47,569
you ever want to talk to me
about, anytime...

622
00:32:48,139 --> 00:32:49,702
I mean, pretty soon,
you're gonna have...

623
00:32:50,350 --> 00:32:51,787
(WHISPERS): your first kiss.

624
00:32:51,863 --> 00:32:54,022
(NORMAL): And your first boyfriend.

625
00:32:55,339 --> 00:32:57,912
Or girlfriend.

626
00:33:01,187 --> 00:33:02,553
Or girlfriend.

627
00:33:04,167 --> 00:33:07,334
Yeah, or girlfriend.

628
00:33:12,516 --> 00:33:14,452

Uh, I'm sorry, I...

00:33:25,007 --> 00:33:28,084
The last I heard, St. George
was lost in the brambles.

634
00:33:28,109 --> 00:33:30,692
- Did I... did I miss something?
- (CHUCKLES)

635
00:33:30,717 --> 00:33:33,170
