BEEF

It happens.

- How's your day going? - Really great. How's yours?

Fantastic.

Fantastic's, uh, fantastic.

Sure is. You up to anything fun this weekend?

Just taking it easy, hanging out with the missus.

- Nice. - How about you? Doing anything?

Same, brother. Oh, except no missus.

- That might be a good thing. - Yeah.

How is that Thompson's WaterSeal?

It's really good. It's like one of our popular ones.

- Nice. - All right.

- Here's your receipt. - Thanks.

Have a nice day.

Just making a return.

Everything okay?

Yeah, just changed my mind.

This is the third time you've bought and returned these hibachi grills.

Yeah, you know, just charcoal versus gas.

It's hard to decide.

I see you returned the carbon monoxide detector again?

I thought you guys had a no-questions-asked policy.

I'm not asking a question. It's a statement.

Okay.

You got a receipt?

Yeah.

I got it somewhere.

If you're making a return,

please be sure to have your receipts ready.

Oh, come on.

I'll just keep them, then, yeah?

Super helpful.

Always fucking something.

There's always something.

What? What?

What is your prob...? What?

Fuck this.

Where you at? Where you at?

Got you.

What the fuck, man?

Think I can't get you? Fuck.

Who the fuck do you think you are, huh?

Fucking shit.

Fuck you!

Are you fucking kidding me?

Show your fucking face!

Show your fucking face!

Show your fucking... Fuck!

Oh, shit.

I got you, motherfucker.

I'm so fucking sick of this shit!

Every fucking day!

Where the fuck do you think you're going? Oh, my God, you fucking idiot.

What are you doing?

No.

Stop. Stop, stop, stop!

7-C-7-6-4-F-1.

7-C-7-6-4-F-1.

7-C-7-6-4-F-1.

Oh.

Are you kidding me?

Figure it out.

Just make it stop.

Amy?

Yeah?

Are you okay? Did something happen at Forsters?

Oh. No. Everything went great.

Jordan showed me her flagship store, and she invited us to her home tomorrow.

So, you know, usual lovefest.

Well, then what's going on? You seem all riled up.

Babe.

Come on.

Talk to me.

Okay, well, um...

after the meeting, I was sitting in the parking lot,

thinking about how many meetings and calls I've had to do for the last two years.

Still somehow there's no offer coming, and it just really got to me, you know?

Then I started driving and there was this guy...

Amy, before you spiral...

I'm gonna have you stop right there.

Take a deep breath.

Pause.

You've got to start focusing on the positive, okay?

You know, maybe we should start doing the gratitude journals again.

Daddy!

I need more markers!

Our little artist.

Uh...

Gratitude journals.

Yeah, you're right. Let's do it. Thanks, babe.

Come on.

- Junie! - Mommy, we missed you!

I missed you too, sweetie.

Look at the vase Daddy made.

- Oh. - I think you're gonna love it.

Yeah, you're right, Junie. I do love it.

You're still cool with selling it at your store, right, babe?

- Mm-hm. - I mean, if you've changed your mind...

it's okay.

They're just not really selling at the gallery, so I don't know.

I can do it.

Paul.

Paul!

Hey, you home?

Yo. You see a Forsters receipt anywhere?

I'm in the middle of a game.

Dude, pick up after yourself, man.

You hear me?

I'm in the middle of a game.

Yo, this fucking guy today, he starts honking at me, right?

So I chased him down,

scared the shit out of that motherfucker.

That's what's wrong with the world today, man.

They want you to feel like you have no control.

You know?

Like you're gonna eat shit with a smile on your face or some shit.

Fuck that, dude.

Fuck it, man!

I don't wanna... I'm so sick of smiling, dude.

Hi.

It's Mom. Have you been good?

Yes, Mom. How are you and Dad?

Living with your uncle has been tough.

- Hmm? - Dad and I fight every day too.

What?

I don't think he wants to work anymore.

Why would I want to work at my age?

I don't even have time to eat breakfast!

Mom, Dad, don't worry.

Business is good.

I'll buy that land you always wanted.

I'll build a big house.

Sure.

No, really!

Anyway, stop worrying about us.

Find a nice Korean girl at church and get married.

Start a family.

Okay.

And it'd be nice if Paul started making some money.

He doesn't even leave his room.

How's he gonna make money?

Hey, I just bought this chain for two Gs.

What the fuck did you guys do?

I'll call you back.

- Paul can't play right now. - What the fuck is your problem?

- You making that money off crypto? - It's none of your business.

It is if you're gonna lose all your money.

I know what I'm doing. All right?

No, you don't, dude. You promised you wouldn't do that shit.

That's why I made more than you this week. I don't have to fix toilets.

I've been busting my ass since Mom and Dad lost the motel.

And you're gonna gamble while they're going to work for Samchon?

Should you be lecturing me

when you're the one who let Isaac run his shady shit at the motel?

- It's why we lost it in the first place. - He's our cousin.

I did not know.

Our family's a bunch of fucking losers.

Write down all your passwords.

- All of them. All your accounts. - What the fuck are you talking about?

I'm gonna change it so you can't access that shit.

Are you fucking serious?

Yo, write down all your shit, or you can start paying rent.

All right.

Did you eat?

Yes, you're absolutely right. I didn't think of that.

Mm.

No, I know. It's just, uh...

I'm the owner so there's no one higher up you can speak to...

Hello?

Hello?

Your husband's brilliant.

Yeah.

No, he is. Um...

The globs, they don't feel too out of place in here?

No, I think it's exactly what the store needed.

It's a good thought. It's a very positive thought.

I mean, you're both brilliant.

Your life, it's, like, such an inspiration.

Thanks, Mia.

I wake up every day feeling very lucky.

You know, I got into design, like,

right after we studied Haru Nakai's work in college.

Ah. Yeah, George's dad was very special.

We miss him every day.

What?

That means "I'm sorry" in Japanese, right?

Cool.

Thanks.

Love the space.

Oh. Appreciate you, Mama.

Let us know if you have any questions, okay?

Oh, my God. Amy Lau.

Could we get a photo together?

Of course.

I got it.

I've been buying your plants online for years.

I just thought I should stop by the store.

Oh, I love that.

I read your interview in Calabasas Style

and I just wanna say
