Drinking Buddies

[Richard Swift's Lady Luck playing]

When it comes to weddings,

you want something that you know most people are gonna like,

gets everyone sufficiently drunk,

no fights between the families.

Can I see the ring?

Yeah.

Oh, my God.

What?

Wow, that's beautiful.

That's great.

What'd you do wrong?

What's up, guys?

Stop working so hard.

I don't want you guys to strain yourselves.

Oh, okay, thank you, Kate.

- It crushed a can like I've never seen.

It was--it was insane.

Yeah, come in!

If that thing is, like, a piece of shit...

Hey, um, how is the planning going

for the anniversary party?

- Good. - Good?

Yep. All set.

- Good or great? - Really great.

- Oh, oh, okay. And you're gonna hate this.

Will you call the distributors, each one individually,

and speak to someone there

and make sure that they know they're invited?

You're, like, you know,

the face and voice of this brewery, so...

Yeah.

- You know, they need to make a connection with you,

and that way, you know--

I know it's a little political, but if you did that for me,

it would make me very, very, very happy.

- Sure thing. Yep, sure. I'll get on that.

- All right. Oh, oh, um...

Uh...

That's it. That's it.

- Okay, thanks. - Okay, all right.

- Hey, what are you, running through the warehouse?

- I have to go make so many phone calls.

Can I make beer instead, and you go make phone calls?

Uh, no, no.

Question: how are the eyes?

They're--they're good,

despite boiling wort being thrown into them.

- Well, look, I apologize about that.

- It's good. I've been baptized.

- See ya. - Lunch?

Yes, yes.

Okay.

Okay, Tom, I have to go.

Yep, I'll see you there.

Okay, thank you.

- Hey. - Hey!

I've got some food for Kate.

That is me.

- If you could just sign this guy for me.

Awesome.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Enjoy.

Hey, do you have a fridge?

Do I have a fridge?

- 'Cause you can have a magnet.

A magnet, ooh.

Yeah.

I love Revolution Brewing.

I really do.

- Thank you! - Thank you.

We love you too.

I love you too.

Uh-oh.

Security!

Hey!

Security!

Ugh.

Oh, we smell so bad!

- Look at this, some Greek salad?

- Eat it. I fucking hate it.

It's disgusting.

I'm trying not to get scurvy.

Boing!

Come on, not my fucking beer!

- Oh, that's an expert beer-tasting technique.

Enjoy your fries.

I'm still gonna eat.

That doesn't-- that doesn't do anything.

That doesn't do anything to me.

- Come out drinking with us tonight.

Okay, yeah.

- You're in? - Sure.

- Awesome. - Mm-hmm.

- They go, "Oh, my name--my name is Jim.

This is my wife, Carol."

You went--"Oh, this is Carol. that's my"--

- You don't need to know their names.

- But so this guy comes up to me,

and I know he's gonna fuck with us.

And so in my head, I think about what my mother said,

and I have the vision,

like from, you know, the voice of God.

This guy's name is Chris Cook.

And so I go, "Hey, man, you're Chris Cook."

- That's not a Korean name, though.

- No, he's not-- this is not the Korean.

I thought that it just didn't work.

No, the guy's name was--

Where did you get Chris Cook?

- It was a voice, the theory-- it was a voice--

- Hey! - Hey!

You made it.

Gentlemen.

- Everybody remembers Jill. - Hi.

- Good seeing you. - Good seeing you too.

- How's it goin'? - Good.

- What do you want to drink? You want something to drink?

Uh, yeah, yeah.

Yeah, I will have a Bell's Amber.

- Bell's Amber. - Bell's Amber.

Thank you.

There you are.

Oh, thank you.

If your party bus flips over,

how long before you think you get to go party foul?

What?

Would you shut up?

Well, I'm just saying.

- Would you please, for once in your life...

Party foul.

- Once in your life, right before you talk, Frank,

just go, "I'm not gonna talk."

- I'm thinking about heading out.

Let's do one more beer.

- Oh, no, no, no, you should stay.

You should hang out with Frank.

- One more beer. - Oh, no, I'm fine.

We'll split one.

- No, baby, I got to go. I got to go.

Yeah, yeah, yeah. I'm going for sure.

I'm going for sure. - I'm gonna go with.

- Yeah? - Yes.

Okay.

Gentlemen.

- You out? - Good night.

- Good night, Kate. We'll see you at work.

Bye!

So long, everybody.

You guys seen The Hustler?

You're about to.

Mmm, that smells good.

It is good.

You want some?

Mm.

Hi.

Hey.

That's good.

Mmm.

Wouldn't take me a second.

No, I'm not hungry.

I just want beer.

Yeah?

- You haven't drank any of the beer I brought you.

I've had a couple of them.

How was your night?

Good.

Yeah?

- Yeah, we played pool at the Empty Bottle.

Oh, the Bottle.

You know that place?

I've heard of it, yeah.

No, I've been to the Bottle.

What'd you do today?

- I met with a couple of kids at the studio

that I think are gonna do an album.

Yeah, they got a pretty decent little sound.

They're kind of...

a little bit freak rock, a little noisy.

But they have this girl who plays the cello,

and I think that's supposed to be ironic,
