Blood Mountain

What are you waiting for?

Just fucking do it!

Hey, little man.

Yeah.

All right, it's Sunday, July 23rd, 2015.

8:20 at the Carson residence.

Ethan here just devoured his first peach puree

and rice cracker concoction.

Hey, buddy.

Hey, yeah.

About five minutes ago, disaster hit.

- Are you journaling about his dirty diapers again?

Sleep okay?

Ugh, I could use some coffee.

Hold on a sec, I read your mind.

I just made some.

- Okay, you're a little too awake for me this morning.

- Well, that's because I've been up for two hours

just thinking about how amazing my wife is.

Oh, yeah?

- Yeah. - Have you also

been thinking about how charming

you're gonna be at Becky's wedding this weekend?

Or how charming you were at my brother's wedding?

- Yeah, but I didn't go to your brother's wedding.

Aha, well played.

- They're gonna start thinking you hate them.

What?

How?

I love your family.

I do, I'm just joking.

Honestly, sometimes they're just a little much, that's all.

I'll be there, okay?

Thank you.

I appreciate it.

What did he eat this morning?

He devoured like half a peach.

Oh, yeah, did he like it?

Yeah.

He totally, he couldn't get enough.

And then about five minutes ago he exploded.

Oh, no, he still has diarrhea?

Uh, yeah, yeah.

- So you were journaling about his dirty diapers again?

What, it's pretty much all he does.

He eats and poops.

Who's that?

What are you doing here?

Hi, man, how you doing?

It's good to see you.

Good to see you too, brother.

Man, you owe me big time.

Now, see you have no idea how much trouble you've got me in.

Just tell Donna that I'm dying.

No, I'm kidding.

Kidding, but you can,

you can throw me under the bus if you want.

That's on record, okay?

No, I couldn't do that, then,

then when you try to decide to drop by every, what?

Two or three years?

Then, that would be super awkward for me.

Come on, man.

Well, it's true, isn't it?

What's with the camera?

- Well, I want to maybe sleep in my own bed again,

so I promised Donna I'd record the trip for Ethan.

Nice.

Plus, we,

we kind of video journal for him.

Yeah?

Shut up.

No, that's cool, that's cool.

You've some hip parents there, Ethan.

- That's true, but, it's for when he's older, okay?

So he has something to, I don't know,

get to know us better or something.

Sure.

Also, probably not a bad way

for Donna to keep tabs on you.

Hm?

- So what is it that couldn't possibly wait

'til next weekend?

- I just, I need your advice on something, man.

We'll talk more about it later,

but I just, I need you, your moral judgment.

- Okay, you haven't asked me for anything in years.

And then, nah, I'm gonna call bullshit on that, man.

Colt.

Oh, shit, ah, delete.

This trip has to be PG, okay?

Okay.

All right?

Ethan, watch your mouth.

Oh, shit.

Well, hello there.

I didn't know there would be three of us.

That's awesome though, the more the merrier.

I'm Chris.

Colt, how's it going?

Good.

You're his brother.

Is it that obvious?

Damn.

Damn it.

- That's awesome, I've heard a lot of good things

about you, man, it's nice to meet you.

Yeah, okay, now I know you're a liar.

Come on, come on.

Hey, check this out.

See that trail?

That'll take us up to Popcorn.

It's a pretty easy trail,

but there's some pretty sweet lines,

I think it would be a good warmup.

Especially for you, since you haven't been out in so long.

Yeah, right.

- No, I don't want to hurt you on your first ride.

Nature.

How you doing?

Good, good.

How's Chris?

I'm good, I'm good, it's...

I love it out here, it's fucking beautiful.

- Yeah. - Uh, delete.

What'd I do?

It's a video diary for his kid.

Oh, cool.

Yeah, watch your mouth.

Hey, I will.

How old's your kid?

He's six months.

It's, it's for when he's older

so he can, I don't know, get to know us better.

- Yeah, yeah, something to remember you guys by.

That's nice, I get it.

See, he gets it.

Sure, man.

Well, my wife kinda started me on,

but, to be honest, I kind of got into it.

I kinda love it.

- Yeah? - But don't tell her that.

- No, hey, yeah, your secret's safe with me.

Attorney-client privilege, we'll call it.

- Oh, careful, that means he's gonna bill you later.

Hey!

Those are trade secrets you're just giving away.

- Ah, if someone finds this, please help me,

I'm surrounded by lawyers.

All right, guys, let's do this.

You good?

- I'm good. - All right.

Oh, man, this is beautiful.

Oh, here, Chris.

Put this in your pack too, man.

You gotta test it out.

Test, test.

Rodger, dodger, loud and clear.

- Hey, Sunshine, you be careful out there, okay?

Don't rush it.

I'm Sunshine?

Okay, yeah, yeah.

- No, we'll find places to wait for you.

- Thank you. - Haven't even started,

trash talk starts.

Okay, let's go, boys, let's go.

Oh, you can't get away from me.

Oh, yeah, there you go, nice.

Show off.

Yeah, I'm working on a shoe deal!

Where's Chris, man?

I thought he was right behind you.

Yeah, for like the first 30 seconds.

So, come on, tell me.

What's, uh, what's his story anyway?

- What do you mean? - Well, I don't understand.

Why do you have to fire him?

He's obviously smart, it can't be an incompetence thing.

No, it's not.

He is, he is, he is smart.

I think he's a really good lawyer, it's just,

he's already got a bit of a reputation, man.

The rest of the partners, they're old school.

He rubs them the wrong way.

Yeah, but I thought you told me

it was your call to make, I don't understand.

If he's a good lawyer, then why do you have to let him go?

No, it is.

Technically it is my call.

It's just,

I'm still the youngest partner the firm's ever had, man.

It's my ass on the line, so,

it's complicated.

Yeah, sounds like it.

Man, I could never do what you do.

So, if you're gonna do it, when are you gonna do it?

Not right now.

It's too bad, he seems like a nice guy.

Yeah.

Hey, there, buttercup.
