Hyde

Hey, Mr. Hyde.

Hey, Jack.

How are you?

How's school?

Good.

Hey, Mr. Hyde.

What do you think happened to all the dinosaurs?

Dinosaurs? Yeah.

In school today, we learned about dinosaurs.

But I don't know what happened to them.

I don't know, Jack.

I mean, wasn't there a Jurassic movie or something like that

where they were all running around?

Yeah, but the dinosaurs are alive in that movie.

Wait, does that mean dinosaurs are still alive somewhere?

Goodbye, Jack.

Mr. Hyde, do you think Dylan could come out and skate?

Let me see what's going on when I get inside,

and I'll send him your way.

Thanks, Mr. Hyde.

Hey, babe.

Hi.

Your mom called today.

She went on another one of those rants

about how nervous she is with us living out here,

afraid that something's going to happen.

Again?

I think it's because you don't call her.

If you talk to her more, she probably wouldn't bother us as much.

That's exactly why I don't call her.

She's always asking, "Why don't you move back?

How can you live in a city full of such sin?"

I can only take so much.

You OK?

Court today, the Banning case.

Yeah?

29 minutes, the jury deliberated.

29.

Not even a full half hour.

Oh, babe, I'm sorry.

But, I mean, really, what were you expecting?

The guy was guilty.

There wasn't a jury in town that was going to set him free.

Except for one.

What?

Not guilty, baby.

What? You didn't?

29 minutes, my jury.

Edward, I'm so proud of you.

And there's more.

Yeah? Uh-huh.

There was talks about maybe making me partner in the firm.

No way.

Oh, Eddie, do you know what this means?

I don't mean it means I'm going to be working a lot more,

but I'll also be able to bring a lot more to the family.

So I can finally get that new kitchen I've been wanting?

Yeah.

Anything you want.

Mmm, I hate to ruin the moment, but...

What's wrong?

You need to talk to your son.

My son?

Jeez.

What did he do now?

He got caught with weed in school.

Shit.

They were going to expel him until I talked to the principal.

They reduced his punishment to two weeks out of school suspension.

But he's on very thin ice, Edward.

Oh, boy.

I don't know how much more I can take of this.

I mean, at first it was the fighting, then stealing stuff from other kids,

and now this?

Alright.

Where is he? I'll talk to him.

Can we talk?

Go ahead.

Didn't you turn that off and listen to me for a minute?

I already know what this is about.

Is that so?

Mom told me she was going to send you in here and talk to me.

This is about what happened at school, right?

Pot. Dylan. Really?

Dad, I'm sorry.

Spare me the bullshit.

Pot is for losers. It fries your brain.

I know. I know. You told me all of this before.

Well, then don't put me in the position where I have to tell you again, Dylan.

And I guess I don't have to tell you that pot will land your ass in jail.

And I guess I don't have to tell you that pot will ruin your life.

But what I can tell you is, is if I ever hear about you doing this again,

it'll be the last thing you do for a very long time. You understand me?

Yeah. I got it.

Okay.

Wait. I'm not punished or anything?

No. Not this time.

Did Mom tell you about the cabin this weekend?

Cabin?

Yeah. We're all going like we used to.

She didn't say anything to me about it. I'll get with her on it.

Are you coming to my game tomorrow?

Game? What time?

3.30.

I'll be there.

Cool.

Love you.

You too.

Good night. Good night.

Did you talk to him?

I did.

And? And he says we're going to the cabin this weekend?

I was going to tell you, but when you came home

from work after everything at court, I forgot.

So we're rewarding him for being a pothead?

It's not a reward, Edward.

What? You mean we're going on a trip the same week that he gets busted in school?

You don't call that a reward?

He's hardly a pothead.

We're not rewarding him, Sarah.

We're not. Well then what do you call it?

I call it taking some time out of our lives to spend some family time together.

Much needed family time.

Maybe if we spent more time with him, he wouldn't be acting out so much.

Don't. Don't do that. Don't blame me. Don't make me out to be the bad guy.

I'm not blaming you. I'm not making you out to be anything.

I'm just as much to blame as you are. I said we, not you.

You're not. Not you. You're gone all day. I'm gone all day.

And even when we are home, we're both still working.

He's a kid, Eddie.

Kids do these things.

We just have to make sure he doesn't keep doing them.

Help him stay on the right path.

Sing me a song?

Someday, when I'm awfully low,

And the world is cold,

I will feel a glow just thinking of you.

And the way you look tonight.

Come on, Dylan! You got this!

Yeah!

Hey, Brad, come on in.

What's up, Eddie?

Just when you think there's no more left in the universe,

there's order staring you straight back in the face.

Okay.

What can I do for you, Brad?

I just need you to sign these.

Alright.

So, what's all this going on about bringing order in the universe?

Well, I was going over some documents,

and I came across this survey that says that

our insurer spent over $300,000 on some new field data.

Who is the ideal employee?

Who dies? How and when?

You know what it said?

It said that people with children live longer than people without.

People with two live longer than people with one.

Smoking is bad.

Drinking is bad.

Speeding is bad.

Divorce is bad.

The drugs are bad.

You know, it's kind of nice to see that all that junk's still there.

It's kind of the simplicity of it all.

Well, you have the perfect family.

Yeah. Yeah.

And I was supposed to be in my son's baseball game 45 minutes ago.

You better get going.

Thanks, Brad.

No problem.

Are you lost?

Can you get lost?

Take a look at yourself.

Are you happy with what you see?

Dude, I don't have time for this.

I'm late for my son's baseball game.

Who the hell are you approaching me like this?

I know who I am, but the same cannot be said about you.

Introspection is the key.

Take a look.

Look, man, get out of here before I call the cops.

Go left. Go left.

I am.

Go left.

How do I go left?

Use that button. What?

I'm using that button.

The other that button.

I thought we had these guys.

Dylan.

What do you mean they found a hair?

You can't do that.

I just did. Ha.

Do you mean to tell me that they broke in after the initial investigation?

No. After it was already taped off and they found a hair?

What?

For all we know, you could have dropped it in there, Brad.

Why don't you just kill me now?

Die, you sucker.

Would everybody just shut up?
