Hex

["One of the Boys" by AamityMae playing]

Lookin' good, Sarah. You make that look too easy.

Thanks, Chad. Hey, I got somethin' for you.

No shit!

This got ripped off my helmet on a skydive yesterday.

And survived!

I just found it in the landing area.

- You're welcome. - Thanks.

That was a pretty sick landing, Sarah.

Thanks.

- Did you enjoy your solo? - I did.

You know, you'd have a lot more fun jumping with us.

So you keep telling me.

Just 'cause you're the new girl

doesn't mean you can't make friends.

You should come out with us some time.

Is that your way of asking?

Well, yeah, I'm not not-asking.

Wow,

I can't say I've ever heard that line before.

You're not gonna make this easy on me.

Where's the fun in that?

- You mind if I leave this here for Kris? - Yeah, no doubt.

That was classic.

I've never seen Payson get shut down before.

I don't think it's ever happened, to be honest.

Just another cocky Skygod.

Every drop zone has one.

You done with that packing weight?

Um, yup.

Who was that?

That's Kris.

He's been packing parachutes a long time.

- Does he jump? - Used to.

They say he was pretty bad-ass back in the day.

Guess he decided to quit while he was ahead.

Load 5, gear up. You're on five-minute call.

Load 5.

Dude, give it up. It's never gonna happen.

I'm with Wade. She's never gonna come around.

You've been trying to get her to jump with us since she got here.

What's so special about her, anyway?

You don't know who that is?

Skydiving runs in that girl's blood.

We need a sixth, Lisa. And she's the one.

Whatever.

["Runnin' Wild" by Andrea Vasquez playing]

- Payson! - Sorry, sorry.

- I have a confession to make. - Oh?

Since when do they allow women into the priesthood?

I need something from you.

I just know talent when I see it,

and right now, the team could use you.

You ever heard of the phrase, "I don't want to belong to any club

that would have me as a member?"

Yeah, Groucho Marx.

You get points for knowing that.

Doesn't change the fact that I like to jump alone.

Jumping alone is kind of like masturbating.

It'll do in a pinch, but it's kinda depressing.

Maybe you don't masturbate right.

Mm-hmm?

A group of us are going to church later.

You ever been?

What self-respecting girl hasn't been to church a few times?

So I'll see you there?

I'll say... maybe.

They missed you.

They're just ducks, Mom.

They don't miss me.

You like it?

It's a new blend I've been working on.

Yeah.

It's like a mix between tree bark and peat moss.

It's healthy. Just drink it.

It's good to have you back.

It's good to be back...

I think.

I was hoping we could fix things.

I would like that.

Look, before you left, I let my emotions get the best of me.

I was angry.

I hope you can understand that.

Are you still jumping?

We're talking about fixing things,

and that's where you want to go?

I'm staying safe, Mom, don't worry.

What I worry about

is you moving from place to place, all by yourself.

You don't stick around in one place long enough to make any friends.

I got invited to hang out with some people tonight.

Well, good. I hope you're gonna go.

I haven't decided.

Sarah... you should go.

You need it.

- There she is. -

Ah, shit. Thanks a lot.

Guess that means I'm going first.

Nice to meet you, too.

That's Greg. He bet me you wouldn't show.

I think he's got a little crush.

That's Evan.

- Yo. - Hey.

- Wade, Lisa. - 'Sup.

What is she doing here?

Come on, Lisa, church is for everyone.

Yeah, I still don't get why they call this church.

'Cause this is where you go to pray for your life.

- - Damn, dude, that's dark.

Welcome to church, Sarah.

- Yeah! - Whoo! He cheats death again.

Whoo-whoo.

So, uh, I hear you might be joining us

for some formation jumps tomorrow.

I don't know about that.

I've never done any formation jumps before.

What?

What do you do when you skydive?

What, do you just play "Princess of the Sky"

- up there all by yourself? -

I guess I've just always kept to myself.

I like it that way.

I wonder if other people like it that way, too.

So, listen, uh,

now that we finally have six people...

I think we should try "The Hex."

You guys gonna jump or what?

That seems like a bad idea, but what do I know?

Let's go, Wade.

See ya.

Bombs away.

Whoo!

Go, go, go!

- Ooo! - Hurry up and land, Wade.

Coming in hot, Lisa.

So, hey...

- The Hex? - Yeah.

For real? I mean, come on.

I'd expect this from Wade, but not you.

It's just--

I mean, we've all heard the stories.

I mean, you believe every story you hear at the drop zone?

Hey, trust me.

Have I ever steered you wrong?

Okay.

Have a good jump, Sarah.

Thanks.

Whoo.

Whoo!

Listen, I didn't mean to assume anything.

I know you haven't agreed to jump with us.

And I'm sorry I said jumping alone was lame.

Uh, it's okay.

I'm sorry I questioned your masturbating skills.

So, what's the Hex?

It's this jump I've always wanted to do,

but you need six people.

- Six talented people. - Ah.

What do you say?

See you in the morning.

Whoo.

This jump? It's true, you need six people.

But the reason it's called the Hex

is a couple of people have died trying it.

Seriously?

That's just an urban legend.

Nobody's ever died doing the Hex.

We can do something else if you're uncomfortable, Sarah.

You could just film us.

I'm not much of a bystander, Lisa. Thanks, though.

That's what I'm talking about!

No, not the white board!

I hate the white board.

Yes, Wade. I know you do, and I thought you might have a hard time

visualizing this particular jump.

So here...

I made this just for you.

- - Ooh.

- Really? - We fly like this,

and on my key...

- Key... huh? -

- - Hardy-fucking-har.

Fuck me, this actually does help, though.

Just try not to...

Oh, my God. Oh, my God, baby.

Oh, no, don't do it.

Remember, a collision at these speeds can knock you out cold.

Err on the side of caution.

We all have to die.

But we don't have to die today!

That's right, smart asses. Gear up.

Looks like your altimeter's sticking.

Yeah, it does that sometimes.
