A big deal about itself though, you know what I mean?
A biscuit.
A book about Harvey Milk...
A little closer together.
A little shopping for you before you take off, huh?
A Magnetic Poetry set...
A worse way to be honest with Mary Elizabeth.
About music and The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
Absolutely not. Charlie, I'm not a bulimic.
After all your help on my Penn State application?
After that, all Patrick could talk about was college and all their futures.
Ah! He's never tossing that salad.
Alice did get into NYU film school.
Alice.
All right, big brother by three weeks, who's your Secret Santa?
All right, Charlie.
All right, Charlie. It's your turn.
All right.
All right. "Chapter One."
All right. All right, guys, I got,
All right. Mary Elizabeth. For you.
All right. We're goin' to Kings after the game if you wanna come.
All the time.
All their lives all the time.
And a mix tape with the song "Asleep" on it twice.
And after a while it sounds crazy.
And everybody laughed but I don't understand what's funny.
And everything that makes you wonder.
And forgive us our trespasses...
And from that moment, I'd know...
And get wasted all the time.
And go stag with her girlfriends instead.
And he said "No," because at least now...
And how for the first time...
And how we've been through the same things.
And I am looking at her.
And I can't turn it off this time.
And I don't know how to not notice it.
And I don't want to be a Mayview kid.
And I had to admit something really upsetting, but...
And I hope you have a great time this summer on your vacations.
And I know it's the last day...
And I need to turn things around.
And I think I might be better at teaching than writing.
And I thought someday I'd be at a party in college or something...
And I tried not to mind that she loves to hold hands...
And I was feeling feverish...
And I wouldn't make you nervous.
And I'd look up and see this person across the room.
And I'm really excited to finally learn...
And in this moment, I swear...
And it gets better.
And just a few hours before, everyone I love...
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us...
And married his nice dad when we moved here.
And maybe if it does get bad again...
And maybe if she didn't put down the books that Mr. Anderson gives me.
And my roommate Katie has the best taste in music.
And normally, I would just blow it off, because school dances suck torture.
And notice I charitably said "girl" and not "person"...
And our pictures will become old photographs.
And parents love you.
And Sam got her letter from Penn State.
And saying that he was going to hell.
And sexist. I mean, it's like "Hey, thanks for the crumb."
And she is so beautiful.
And she let some of the guys feel them.
And she said that when Sam was a freshman...
And she turned her life around.
And since I heard that having a girlfriend makes you happy...
And some unexpected beautiful days.
And that's where we get the term...
And the boyfriend says, "Stop. You're killing him."
And the Schenley Park scene.
And then there was Sam.
And then there's Brad Hays.
And then...
And these assholes, they actually think they're being original.
And think that counts as love.
And thinking about love.
And this club off the Strip. They don't card.
And this one's for me.
And this was to be the night that they were gonna lose their virginity.
And tomorrow, she's leaving.
And wants to go to film school.
And why do they give out letter jackets to marching band?
And you can't have three on a match because then they'd find us.
And you helped me.
And you know what happened?
And you understand.
And you're not small.
And you've known for six months?
And, well, she had boobs in 4th grade.
Anybody else?
Anybody?
Anyone?
Are these all your books, Charlie?
Are we talking about anyone specific?
Are you going to New York?
Are you having a good time?
Are you kidding? I love The Smiths. Best breakup band ever.
Are you okay?
Are you proud to be a senior...
Are you ready to meet some desperate women?
Are you sure it's not a "goddamn biscuit"?
Are you sure it's okay that I come?
Are you sure?
As I enter the school for the first time...
As it turns out, Mr. Anderson is a writer.
As they were all getting ready for their prom.
As we forgive those who trespass against us.
At her going away party...
Aw! Look at you guys.
Basically Craig has been cheating on Sam the whole time.
Beautifully done.
Because Brad had to get drunk every time they fooled around.
Because he wants to be near the music in Seattle.
Because I don't want them...
Because I get to see Sam and Patrick.
Because I know there are people who say all these things don't happen.
Because I might be too busy trying to participate.
Because she's a Buddhist and a punk.
Because she's a Buddhist and a punk.
Because your birthday's on Christmas Eve...
Because, let's face it, I'd smoke all you bitches.
Before my older brother went to play football for Penn State...
Believe it or not, she's gotten straight A's since kindergarten.
Billie Holiday and foreign films.
Bob, did you get him stoned?
Bob.
Box office.
Brad doesn't have to get drunk to love him.
Brad doesn't want anyone to know.
Brad kept saying that his dad would kill him.
Brad?
Brad's father caught them together.
Buddhist, I need you to smile a little bit more.
Bullshit.
But after a while he runs out of things to keep himself numb.
But Brad's a senior.
But despite that distinct possibility...
But for all the wrong reasons.
But he wasn't going to leave without organizing the best senior prank ever.
But he'll be back for New Year's Eve.
But I don't care.
But I don't know what I'd write about.
But I forgive you.
But I got my S.A.T. results back.
But I want to forget about that for a minute, okay?
But I was getting so mad, it was starting to scare me.
But I will say there were some very bad days.
But I'm gonna have to guess Alice.
But I'm trying not to be judgmental.
But I've been trying hard not to be a loser.
But if we could keep it to a dull roar, I'd appreciate it.
But if you knew the things that were in my head most of the time...
But it was enough to start putting these pieces together.
But not like the slap kind. Like, the real kind.
But now she doesn't like to say "Hi" to me anymore.
But right now these moments are not stories.
But she's not bitter or anything. Make no mistake.
But somehow she always acts like my father at the end of a long day.
But the son just yells, "Get out."
But there's history with Mary Elizabeth and Sam.
But they say if you make one friend...
But they're gonna need people when we go to college.
But things are a total disaster.
But tomorrow is my first day of high school ever.
But we can choose where we go from there.
But you wore that toasty costume. It's not like it's cute or original.
But, look,
But, you know, I'm still searching for it, so yeah.
But, you know, it's my last year and...
By listening to Sam's collection of big rock ballads...
Bye, Charlie!
Bye.
C minus! Ladies and gentlemen, I am below average!
Call the police and send them to my house.
Calm down.
Can Charlie come out and play?
Can Charlie come out and play?
Can I ask you something?
Can I have 30 dollars?
Can we be friends again?
Can you imagine that?
Can you see it, Charlie?
Can't save anybody.
Candace. Your brother's on the phone.
Candace...
Cash register.
Catches his son with another boy.
Charlie has a breakdown scheduled for October.
Charlie just told me that his best friend shot himself.
Charlie Kelmeckis.
Charlie tells me you're a Buddhist.
Charlie, Charlie, what do you think about high school?
Charlie, please don't interrupt. You know I hate that.
Charlie, take off your clothes.
Charlie, this is Ponytail Derek.
Charlie, trust me, you don't wanna go back in there.
Charlie, you've gotta break up with her.
Charlie!
Charlie?
Charlie?
Charlie?
Charlie? Come on.
Charlie? Truth or dare?
Charlie.
Charlie.
Charlie.
Charlie.
Charlie.
Charlie.
Charlie.
Charlie.
Charlie...
Color film, but black and white paper for printing.
Come on out.
Come on, Charlie. Charlie!
Come on, get dressed. You're gonna be late for Easter Mass.
Come on, I got dinner ready.
Come on, Sam, he likes it, just look at him.
Come on!
Come on! Let's keep the train rolling.
Come on.
Come out, come out, wherever...
Come out, come out, wherever...
Congratulations.
Craig has flaked out on us again.
Cry me a river.
Dad?
Dare.
Dear friend...
Dear friend...
Definitely.
Delve into our facilities.
Derek, you're Earth Club treasurer. Come on!
Did you already do the term paper on To Kill a Mockingbird?
Did you have fun on your break?
Did you see his face?
Did your older friends pressure you?
Do you always want to be a mama's boy, Derek?
Do you guys know about Schenley Park?
Do you have a favorite band?
Do you like me?
Do you mean the people that I've known since kindergarten...
Do you remember anything before you blacked out?
Do you see her?
Do you trust me?
Do you understand?
Do you want butter on your popcorn?
Do you want me to tell you?
Do you want your friends to know how you got those bruises? Really?
Don't be nervous.
Don't be shy.
Don't be shy.
Don't wake your sister.
Don't wake your sister.
Don't worry, Mr. Anderson, I'm okay.
Don't you get it, Charlie?
Don't you just love old music?
Drum roll.
Either you call me Patrick Or you call me nothing.
Either you call me Patrick Or you call me nothing.
Emerge a star.
Especially because, ever since I blacked out in the cafeteria...
Especially Sam. She's great.
Even if you didn't know what I was talking about...
Even though I counted and I have...
Even when her hands are sweaty.
Every single time!
Everybody!
Everyone...
Everything was going to be okay.
Everything was perfect and they're just about to "do it."
Ew!
Except the final term paper if you get it right.
Excuse me.
Excuse us. Excuse me. Pardon.
Extra danger.
Feel a little silly about being nervous now, huh, Champ?
Fine.
Fine. Okay. Your turn.
First foreign film.
For Christ's sake, I need to use the phone.
For example, I'm trying to participate...
Forget it.
Forty dollars to print Punk Rocky in color next time.
Four, three, two, one.
Freshman year is tough, but...
From the heart.
Genius book.
Get a room.
Get him.
Get out here, buddy.
Get out of the way! Get out of the way!
Gird your loins, procreator.
Give us this day our daily bread...
God bless this food we are about to receive.
God, what am I supposed to...
God, would you turn it down? You're gonna make us deaf.
Goddamn Penguins.
Going to get your birthday present.
Gonna say something?
Good friends?
Good.
Good. 'Cause I made you a mix of it.
Great Gatsby?
Guessing my Secret Santa is Mary Elizabeth.
Guy. Guys. Thank you for such a great year.
Guys, 1210.
Guys, a receipt! She actually paid!
Guys, we have an emergency.
Had lunch with Craig today.
Had their last day of high school ever.
Hand them out, Sam.
Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird.
Have a beautiful first date.
Have a good one, guys.
Have a good summer.
Have a good time at your mom's.
Have fun.
Have I ever kissed a girl?
Have you ever heard this before?
Have you ever kissed a girl?
Have you guys felt this carpet?
Have you heard of the Sadie Hawkins dance?
Having to take freshman shop, Patty Cakes?
He also invented the serial.
He always says he feels free and tonight is his destiny.
He and Brad played together...
He and his wife might go back there after this year.
He begins every night really excited.
He even drew on Mr. Callahan's legendary goatee...
He even had a play put up in New York once...
He gives me one every week.
He had a man hanging from a cliff by his fingernails.
He knows me.
He really knows me.
He said he was sorry and that I was right to break up with him.
He used to come over to the house all the time.
He was a little nervous about starting high school today, so I made it for him.
He was British.
He was just trying to make us freshmen feel better.
He was my dad's boss.
He was my...
He wasn't doing the impersonation to be mean or anything.
He's going to be first string this year.
He's never hit me before, and I promise you, he will never hit me again.
He's not my boyfriend. He's my stepbrother.
He's opinionated. We have intellectual debates.
He's sensitive.
He's still trying to shag that waitress from the Olive Garden.
Hello! And the front door opens, it's my parents!
Hello?
Hello?
Hello?
Hence the term "cliff hanger."
Her best friend Alice loves vampires...
Here he is.
Here. Feel.
Hey, babe.
Hey, Candace.
Hey, Charlie, you want this?
Hey, don't worry about Penn State. You're just wait listed.
Hey, everyone!
Hey, freshman toad.
Hey, have you heard from Patrick?
Hey, honey. Ah.
Hey, Nothing.
Hey, Patrick.
Hey, Sam.
Hey, you know what? Why don't you guys get a room?
Hey!
Hey!
Hey! Look who's here.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey.
Hey. Do you wanna get out of here?
Hey. Thanks for paying, Charlie.
Hey. You're in my shop class, right?
High school is even worse than middle school.
High school?
His name was Robert.
Hmm!
Hmm?
Hmm.
Honey, I think we're gonna have to do...
Honey?
Hop, freshman toads! Hop! Let's move it!
How about something a little bit more upbeat, huh?
How are you feeling, Charlie?
How crazy you really were, no one would ever talk to you?
How do you feel, Charlie?
How do you stop seeing it?
How do you think the Penguins are gonna do this year, Dad?
How I didn't want to go out with Mary Elizabeth after Sadie's, but...
How I'm both happy and sad.
How long do you think?
How long does this take to work?
How long have you been boyfriend and girlfriend?
How you doing, Charlie?
How'd your S.A.T.'s go, by the way?
How's it goin'?
How's your clock coming?
How's your first relationship going?
However, if you and I had gone to a Shakespeare play...
Huh. Now why do you say that?
I am here.
I am not a mama's boy!
I am writing to you because she said you listen and understand.
I asked my sister about her...
I asked Patrick if he felt sad...
I can do that?
I can even get into a real college.
I can handle him.
I can make you guys a copy if you want.
I can see it.
I can't even be mad at him. Look at him.
I can't feel that.
I can't hear you!
I can't say I blame him really.
I can't stop her. I'm crazy again.
I completely agree.
I concede!
I could meet the love of my life any second.
I couldn't find that song that we were listening to...
I dare you to kiss Alice.
I didn't know how tonight was gonna go, but .
I didn't see anything.
I didn't think anyone noticed me.
I don't care.
I don't know if I will have the time to write any more letters...
I don't know what to say.
I don't know why, because her family is rich...
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't know.
I don't think he has any friends.
I don't wanna bring back silverware.
I don't want to be somebody's crush.
I don't want you to do that.
I feel infinite.
I feel like I'm finally doing good.
I felt like I belonged somewhere.
I felt really bad for Patrick.
I figure you don't get that many presents?
I found the tunnel song.
I got jumped in a parking lot.
I got you this book.
I guess she had a reputation.
I had a blast. I hope you did, too.
I have a chance. Like...
I have a chance. Like...
I have received a harmonica...
I have received socks, pants, a shirt and a belt.
I have to do much better.
I have to get this driveway clean.
I heard it on Ponytail Derek's mix tape.
I heard you were gonna be in my class.
I hope it works out.
I hope it's okay for me to think that.
I just can't believe it.
I just can't believe you're my boyfriend.
I just didn't think that you wanted that.
I just get so messed up inside.
I just hope I make a friend soon.
I just hope she can stop playing dumb with these guys.
I just need to know that people like you exist.
I just need to meet a good guy.
I just really want a milk shake.
I just wanna make sure that the first person who kisses you...
I just want you to be happy.
I just wish I could have found another way to break up.
I just wish it were happening to me.
I keep telling her, "Don't make yourself small."
I keep trying, but I can't really remember what I did.
I kept thinking about the happy girl in these pictures.
I killed Aunt Helen, didn't I?
I kinda wished he'd left a note. You know what I mean?
I know I should have been honest...
I know I'm quiet.
I know these will all be stories someday.
I know this is hard for you.
I know this is selfish, but I really hope he doesn't.
I know who you are, Sam.
I know. I just feel really bad about what I did.
I learned that back in 'Nam in '68.
I like to see how happy she was before she knew.
I look forward to that big talk.
I love bulimia!
I love you guys!
I love you, Charlie.
I love you, too.
I mean the way they treat those...
I mean, come on, "spaz"?
I mean, I have no idea.
I need you to promise...
I probably should have been honest about...
I probably won't tell them the truth...
I read this in 7th grade.
I really didn't mean anything by it. I'm sorry.
I really didn't want to hurt her feelings.
I remember leaving Sam's house.
I saw Mary Elizabeth checking you out.
I should go back and apologize.
I started seeing things, so I passed out.
I think I understand, because I really like Sam.
I think so.
I think the time is right now.
I think you could write one of them one day.
I thought maybe if she would just let me pick the make out music...
I thought you should have my clock.
I thought your brother would have told you. It's a classic.
I told you, just give 'em a smile...
I tried hard to love her like I love Sam.
I try. Sam, I try.
I used to get "spaz".
I wanna do Secret Santa forever!
I wanna move to a house like this in Cape Cod.
I want people to like the real me.
I want you to know that I was in a bad place before I started high school.
I wanted her to know about that night we went through the tunnel.
I was 11.
I was happy because they were happy...
I was so hungry at the dance. I was gonna go to Kings...
I was walking home. And...
I will visualize what it will be like...
I wish I would have studied freshman year.
I won't go into detail about all of it.
I would happily not take shop.
I would have called it On Boring Pond.
I would never do drugs. Never.
I, um...
I'd hate for her to judge me based on what I used to be like.
I'd love to expose you to great things like...
I'll be there in a minute.
I'll give you a free "A" on anything...
I'll help you study for the next one.
I'll tell you something, Charlie...
I'll tell you, Sam.
I'll try not to make you too jealous.
I'm actually starting to hate pizza.
I'm also writing essays and studying extra books outside of class.
I'm begging you to do this for me.
I'm doing okay.
I'm Dr. Burton.
I'm driving away and was feeling so small.
I'm free now, right?
I'm going to congratulate you on being happy.
I'm gonna be your teacher for freshman English.
I'm gonna have to go with...
I'm gonna say "no" on that, but nice try. Charlie.
I'm in such a good mood I don't think even he could ruin it.
I'm just sayin'.
I'm just thinking...
I'm Mr. Anderson.
I'm not picturing things anymore.
I'm really sorry we can't be here for your birthday.
I'm really sorry. I didn't mean to do anything.
I'm really sorry. That sounded like a compliment in my head.
I'm shocked. All right. Well, you can skip the quiz...
I'm so sorry.
I'm so sorry.
I'm so touched!
I'm sorry I haven't written for a while...
I'm sorry, the kid's a pussy. I can't stand him.
I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
I'm talking about your pet ape just tripped me.
I'm tired of touching her boobs.
I've been away for two months.
I've called him 30 times.
I've looked at her picture since that night.
I've tried to stop thinking that, but I can't.
If my Aunt Helen were still here, I could talk to her...
If my parents ask me about it...
If you fail me, you get me next semester.
If you tell me which author invented the paperback book.
If you want to get better...
In fact, at the end of the third chapter of his first novel...
In hindsight, I probably could not have picked...
In middle school, Susan was very fun to be around...
In the meantime, I'd hoped that my sister, Candace, and her boyfriend, Derek...
In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
Innocent.
Is it bad tonight?
Is it?
Is that Brad Hays?
Is the only friend I make today...
Is this your room?
Isn't it quiet?
Isn't this the best milk shake ever, Alice?
It all feels very exciting.
It really is.
It so is.
It sure is a nice house.
It was a mistake, I'm sorry.
It would have cost us four pennies.
It'll be our little secret, okay?
It'll be our little secret. Okay?
It's a bit of a mess.
It's a record store downtown.
It's a surprise.
It's a tradition.
It's all about that night in the tunnel.
It's all my fault.
It's all right.
It's an antique joke. It's over.
It's an endless nightmare.
It's another world.
It's been getting worse.
It's best if you just stay away for a while.
It's even better than the first one.
It's just a mix tape. No big deal.
It's like when you say your name over and over again in the mirror...
It's my first date, I don't have much to compare it to.
It's nice to meet you, Charlie. I'm Sam.
It's not a sport.
It's Patrick!
It's really how I became a vegan.
It's really nice, isn't it?
It's really sweet and everything, but,
It's ruined. Okay?
It's so bad...
It's so nice to meet you.
It's stuck. It's just...
It's them. It's everyone. It never stops.
It's too late, Charlie.
It's true. You can do it.
It's up the stairs.
Just 1,385 days.
Just asking myself, "Why do I and everyone I love..."
Just don't wake up Mom and Dad.
Just lucky, I guess.
Just we've all become such good friends.
Last day.
Leave him alone!
Let's drive.
Let's eat.
Let's get this party started.
Let's get this party started.
Let's go be psychos together.
Let's go, Devils!
Let's just see.
Let's think. Charlie.
Like Aunt Helen's boyfriends?
Like I'm not there or something.
Like, if you met me you wouldn't...
Listened to "Asleep," wrote a poem...
Look up.
Look who's here.
Look, Charlie, she's fast asleep.
Look, I egged him on. You saw it.
Look, I know. I'm sorry.
Look, my name is Patrick.
Love always, Charlie.
Love it. Love football.
Loves you.
Ma, you look so thin.
Make a wish, honey.
Make us solve crimes.
Man, your mix is morbidly sad, kid.
Mary Elizabeth is really interesting...
Mary Elizabeth, I think you're really gonna regret that...
Mary Elizabeth, I've been listening to the Billie Holiday CD every night.
Mary Elizabeth, Samantha told me that you got into Harvard. Congratulations.
Mary Elizabeth, why are you trying to eat Christmas?
Maybe I can join the cast as an alternate or something.
Maybe I could still give you books next year.
Maybe I'll see you around in school? ♪
Maybe my old friend Susan would wanna have lunch with me.
Maybe tomorrow I'll take you to this karaoke place downtown.
Maybe you know my brother then.
Maybe.
Mayview Hospital.
Meet Charlie.
Mm hmm.
Mmm! You're a monster.
Mmm.
Mmm.
Mmm.
Mmm. What a great word. Milk shake.
Mom and Dad are gonna be home with Chris any second.
Mosquito bites. Promising. Go.
Most of them are idiots.
Mr. Anderson?
Multiple pairs of blue jeans.
My best friend, Michael, his dad was a big drinker...
My brother and sister always came for those...
My brother said Penn State has this restaurant called Ye Olde College Diner.
My dad's building it for me.
My fault.
My favorite time, though, is lunch...
My God!
My last class of the day is Advanced English...
My mom finally left my worthless dad...
My sister finally decided to break up with Derek...
My sister told me she met a nice guy at her summer job.
My turn. Let's see.
My wife and I like it here.
Never see you coming.
Nice look, jag off.
Nice suit.
Nice Trapper Keeper, faggot.
Nick Drake.
No matter what Patrick did...
No more applications! No more S.A.T.'s!
No one pressured me, Officer.
No shit? Your sister's dating Ponytail Derek, isn't she?
No, he told me to stay away.
No, it was some kids from North Hills.
No, no, no, I'll sit.
No, not me.
No, that's okay. I'm just sorry you have to go back and visit your dad.
No, you know what I mean.
No, you're doing something wrong, I think.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No.
No. Charlie Charlie, just go. I can handle it.
No. Charlie, listen to me.
No. I saw them when I was little...
No. Mama Patrick says "No."
No. No way. No. I'm not.
No. No, no, no.
No. Of course not. You went home...
Nope.
Nope.
Not even like a second grade Valentine?
Not now, Charlie. I'm sorry.
Not really.
Not really. How about you?
Nothing, why don't you read first?
Nothing, why don't you read first?
Nothing.
Nothing.
Now just let it breathe.
Now look at you in that suit.
Now who here is gonna read for pleasure this summer?
Now, who'd like to get out of the first pop quiz?
Obviously, it is completely stupid.
Obviously.
Of course I did.
Of course.
Office Max.
Oh, Charlie! You look like you could use a brownie.
Oh, don't worry about that.
Oh, he shot himself last May.
Oh, he went home to Connecticut.
Oh, I know. Thank you.
Oh, my God, they're playing good music!
Oh, my God!
Oh, my God! What is this song?
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God. My life is officially an after school special.
Oh, no problem. Thank you guys for the ride.
Oh, okay.
Oh, shit!
Oh, sorry...
Oh, that works on so many levels.
Oh, that's disgusting!
Oh, that's fucked up.
Oh, touché.
Oh, wow, this is useful, guys. We should read on.
Oh, you're in trouble now, Jaguars!
Oh!
Oh!
Oh.
Oh.
Oh.
Oh. You don't know.
Okay, Charlie, don't freak out. Give me this.
Okay, Charlie, listen.
Okay, Charlie. Let me make the milk shake.
Okay, I dare you to kiss the prettiest girl in the room...
Okay, I will. Good...
Okay, Lily comes here one night with this guy Parker.
Okay, listen...
Okay, Nothing.
Okay?
Okay? This has to be our little secret.
Okay? You're playing in a bowl game.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Okey dokey.
On the bright side...
On the last day of my senior year.
On the lips.
On your first day, you're doing okay.
Once in a while, we might have a chance.
One more time!
One senior decided to make fun of the teacher instead of the freshmen.
Only with Patrick's blessing.
Ooh! Get against the railing and try to look suave.
Oops.
Open it!
Or if I do, I can just shut it off.
Or if she would stop calling me the minute I get home from school...
Other guys and things that have nothing to do with you.
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name.
Outside of my family all summer.
Oy vey. We're gonna miss the movie.
Page 291 in your book.
Parties too.
Party tonight?
Patrick is going to the University of Washington...
Patrick never likes to be serious...
Patrick never likes to be serious...
Patrick was eventually able to help Brad get sober.
Patrick, It's the perfect song.
Patrick, we've gotta go through the tunnel.
Patrick?
Patrick.
Patrick. It's Sam. It's Sam speaking to you right now.
Perfect.
Please, don't tell Mom and Dad.
Please, don't try to figure out who I am.
Poetry writes me. You know?
Pretty soon, you'll have a whole new group of friends, you know.
Put your seat belt on.
Queer as a 3 dollar bill.
Question. Could the bathrooms here be more disgusting?
Raise your glasses to Charlie.
Really?
Relax. Relax. He's a friend of mine.
Right? I have no idea.
Right. Come on, offense!
Rocky!
Rocky!
Rocky!
Sam and Patrick left, and I can't stop thinking about something.
Sam is going away right after graduation.
Sam says they're kitschy and brilliant.
Sam, do you think if people knew...
Sam, it's freezing.
Sam!
Sam!
Sam? Sam?
Sam.
Sam's doing Secret Santa.
Saw this tree, but it was a dragon.
Say hi to your dad for me.
Say that shit again! Say that shit again!
See you Monday.
Seeing it.
Seeing what, Charlie?
Seniors only.
Seven, six, five...
Shakespeare didn't write novels.
She died getting my birthday present...
She got in, Charlie.
She had a terrible life.
She just really believes in bulimia.
She keeps driving away and dying.
She made it.
She must have been great.
She was insane.
She was my favorite person in the world.
She went ape shit.
She,
She...
She's on the phone right now?
Shh!
Shh. What?
Shit! My parents! Shit!
Shovelin' snow, huh?
Shut up, Candace!
So be it. It's rock and roll.
So come on, everyone.
So cool.
So do you like football?
So good.
So he comes into the basement one night when he's supposed to be out of town.
So he hated all that stuff.
So he starts beating him.
So how you liking school?
So I guess I killed her, right?
So I have a plan.
So I know it's none of my business, but have you decided?
So I need a Rocky.
So I thought maybe he'd say "Hi" to me.
So I took her on double dates.
So I wanted to give her a part of me.
So I went outside for a walk just to get some cold air.
So I'll see you Thursday at 6:00, right?
So I'm guessing you've never been high before?
So I've been making her a mix tape so she'll know how I feel.
So it took me a while to get what happened.
So Sam tells me you wanna be a writer.
So she did it really proper. She packed a picnic.
So stop calling everyone. Stop embarrassing yourself.
So that I don't have to break up with her.
So what are you gonna do when you get outta this place?
So what do you say?
So you be careful. She'll ruin your life forever.
So you wanna wear these glasses?
So you're not scared of me?
So your last present is on a towel rack in the bathroom.
So,
So, if this does end up being the last letter...
So, you ever hear the one about Lily Miller?
Some kids jumped him outside the O.
Somehow she finds new things to say.
Son of a bitch!
Sorry Craig couldn't come.
Sorry I haven't written for a while...
Sorry we won't be seeing him tonight.
Sorry.
Sounds nice, doesn't it?
Stay here.
Stole a bottle of wine.
Stop crying.
Stop it.
Stop what?
Stop!
Stop! Leave him! Stop!
Suburban legend, Charlie.
Suck it.
Sure, Brad.
Sure, Patrick.
Sure.
Tell it to someone who cares.
Ten, nine, eight...
Terrible stain.
Thank you, Charlie!
Thank you, Derek. It's Charlie's favorite.
Thank you, Patrick.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you. This one still hasn't gotten me flowers.
Thanks for not calling me Nothing by the way.
Thanks for staying up with me.
Thanks for stopping 'em.
Thanks, Charlie.
Thanks, Charlie.
Thanks, Derek.
Thanks, Sam.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks.
Thanks. And, listen, Charlie.
That dairy just sits with you.
That he still had to keep it a secret.
That I keep fantasizing that one of us is dying of cancer.
That I think I must have given them to myself.
That picture is gorgeous, Craig. What did you use?
That prick punch killed my best friend in a Saigon whorehouse.
That sounds like fun.
That waitress from the Olive Garden, she was such a tease.
That was fast.
That would be sort of depressing.
That you're not gonna say anything to anyone about me and Brad.
That'd be great. Thanks.
That's a great guess, but no.
That's kinda weird, isn't it?
That's not what I heard.
That's okay.
That's okay.
That's pretty good, Charlie.
That's, like...
The author...
The boyfriend just did.
The cafeteria is called the Nutrition Center.
The country breakfast.
The first night, we had grilled stickies.
The guy's father doesn't know about his son.
The kind of pretty that deserves to make...
The luminaria is a landing strip for Santa Claus.
The one where the girl asks the guy?
The prick punch is not a toy.
The Shaggs.
The upperclassmen used to get her drunk at parties.
The ushers would lock it in the office.
The worst day was the time my doctor told my mom and dad...
Their club's hosting a cotillion or something racist.
Then he started to cry.
Then how did you happen to be passed out on the ground at 6:00 in the morning?
Then I heard this old song.
Then it was a tree again and it just lied to me.
Then Monday in school, Brad would say...
Then why didn't you ever ask me out?
There are people who forget what it's like to be 16 when they turn 17.
There is so much pain.
There was this beautiful sunset.
There you go. Nice.
There's only Secret Santa presents. There's rules.
There's people out there. No.
There's this girl named Second Base Stace.
There's this one guy.
These are great.
They call you the "teacher's pet"?
They did it with one of the sandwich bags.
They say that about L.S.D. just to scare you.
They were in a hotel suite after prom and the truth came out.
They'll be gone all night.
Things sound so much better on vinyl.
Things will be different now and that's good.
Think I was the weird kid who spent time in the hospital.
Think they're allergic to goddamn defense.
This carpet feels so darn good.
This chicken paprikash is delicious.
This collection of presents is so gay...
This is Charlie's first party ever.
This is happening.
This is her time.
This is my copy, but I want you to have it.
This is pathetic, man. Your fixation on me.
This is what fun looks like.
This kid is crazy.
This merlot is really fancy.
This next one might be a little sad, but it reminded me of your eyes.
This one moment when you know you're not a sad story.
This one's tough.
This semester we're gonna learn about...
This was my favorite book growing up.
This was my favorite book growing up.
This went on for seven months.
This'll be our little secret.
Those good friends?
Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
To Charlie.
To Charlie.
To worry that I might get bad again.
Touch my friends again and I'll blind you.
Truth or dare?
Turn it up!
Uh huh.
Um, Mary Elizabeth, can I talk to you...
Unfortunately, I counted and that's...
Until Chris had to go to training camp.
Until now.
Vegans don't eat butter.
Wait a second.
Wait.
Walden.
Was he your first boyfriend?
Way better than me as a freshman.
We all know it.
We are infinite.
We can try.
We could put in a good word for you.
We just wanna toast to our new friend.
We looked everywhere for you. You could have told someone.
We spend the time working on Mary Elizabeth's fanzine...
We thank you for this bounty...
We worked out all summer. Rock hard.
We would have put those pennies in a metal box.
We'll meet you there.
We'll talk later.
We're literally making out and I'm in my bra...
Weird.
Welcome home, Aunt Helen.
Welcome to the Island of Misfit Toys.
Well,
Well,
Well,
Well, all the great writers used to wear great suits.
Well, can I tell you something?
Well, I have 1,384 days to go.
Well, I have 1,384 days to go.
Well, I think The Smiths are my favorite.
Well, I, um I I was really tired.
Well, I'm no braniac like you or Candace.
Well, I'm no braniac like you or Candace.
Well, it's kinda true.
Well, my Aunt Helen said I should be a writer...
Well, we didn't think there was anyone cool left to meet.
Well, we're filled up now...
Well, what about you?
Well, what did you want?
Well, you know, Mom did say that you have good friends now.
Well...
What a display of man I have never seen!
What about her?
What about you?
What about your Aunt Helen?
What are you doing?
What are you talking about?
What Aunt Helen did to me.
What do the players call a puck again?
What if I wanted her to die, Candace?
What is it? What's wrong?
What is she doing?
What the hell is wrong with you?
What?
What?
What? Charlie?
What's hurting you?
What's that spell?
What's the plan? Are we going to Mary Elizabeth's tonight?
What's this?
What's wrong, Charlie?
What's wrong, Charlie?
What's your favorite song?
Whatever, faggot.
When he was a junior, Patrick started seeing Brad on the weekends in secret.
When I have absolutely nothing to talk about other than the bus ride home.
When I heard that...
When I met you, you were this scared freshman.
When I'm done being a lobbyist...
When my sister said "No," I thought...
When they finally did it, Brad said he loved Patrick.
When they realize they forgot the condoms.
Where? Schenley Park?
Where's Craig?
Where's Craig?
Where's the bathroom?
Which I think is very impressive.
Who are you talking to?
Who could forget Mr. Car Wash Loser?
Who was that kid?
Who's this?
Whoa.
Whoo!
Why all the clothes?
Why can't you save anybody?
Why didn't you raise your hand?
Why don't you keep an eye out for him, and I will be right back, okay?
Why? Why? What happened?
Will you hand these out while I'm gone?
Will you marry me?
Will you?
With a grease pencil.
With the people you love most in this world.
With the smartest kids in the school.
Worst kinda guys.
Would have let me eat lunch with their Earth Club.
Would you leave Ponytail Derek alone?
Would you maybe wanna go with me?
Wow, this is a really tough one...
Wow.
Wow.
Yeah, I can see that.
Yeah, I hope so.
Yeah, I know you saw something, but it's okay.
Yeah, I know.
Yeah, I mean, I just don't wanna do anything to ruin our relationship.
Yeah, I'll go put some pep in her step. Don't worry.
Yeah, I'm sick of macho guys.
Yeah, it's just, if I'm going to Penn State main campus...
Yeah, of course. Just remember, Charlie, Bob's not paranoid.
Yeah!
Yeah! Call it Slut and the Falcon.
Yeah?
Yeah?
Yeah?
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah. He said he didn't want to go to some stupid high school dance.
Yeah. Mine looks like a boat.
Yeah. My dad collects wine, but he doesn't drink.
Yeah. My professor gave me an A...
Yeah. Of course.
Yeah. Sure.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah. Yeah.
Yes, I will.
Yes, it is.
Yes, sir. I sure do.
Yes.
Yes. They call it the men's room.
You are a hopeless stoner who attends the culinary institute.
You are alive.
You are, because every single time I go to your house,
You are.
You can just talk to them. Yeah?
You can take them again, you know.
You can't just sit there and put everybody's lives ahead of yours...
You could have been a little nicer to Derek.
You could write about us.
You don't have to say anything.
You gonna do anything?
You got it, your highness.
You got me a present?
You gotta be kidding me.
You guys are about to miss some severely hot fag on goth action.
You guys seem really happy together.
You have no idea how good you have it.
You have really good taste, Charlie.
You have such pretty brown eyes.
You have to get a grilled sticky on your first night.
You have to see the Fruit Loop at least one time.
You have to visit in the fall. We'll have some, okay?
You have to.
You just stand there like a little bitch dog.
You know haircut when you look back at old photographs.
You know I'm gonna call you all the time.
You know what I mean?
You know what I mean.
You know, Charlie, I used to sleep with guys who treated me like shit.
You know, I heard you had a tough time last year.
You know, I used to be popular before Sam got me some good music.
You know, it walks with you.
You know, she bosses people around sometimes.
You made me not feel alone.
You put the "ass" in "class," Patrick.
You really find yourself.
You really think so?
You said some things about her in your sleep.
You said that an hour ago.
You saved my brother.
You see things.
You see, I haven't really talked to anyone...
You see, Mary Elizabeth is a really nice person...
You should learn to participate.
You wanna go with me?
You wanna sit over here or are you waiting for your friends?
You wanna start work on probability and statistics?
You were very sweet but our relationship was too one sided.
You won't even think about this place anymore.
You, of all people.
You, too, Mr. Anderson.
You'd know what it really meant.
You'll be surprised to know that your Secret Santa is actually me.
You'll see what I mean when you get to college.
You're a wallflower.
You're beautiful.
You're cruisin' for a bruisin'.
You're cruisin' for a bruisin'.
You're doing fine.
You're like a sexy English schoolboy.
You're seeing things again, Charlie?
You're so nice.
You're the best teacher I've ever had.
You're trying to pull, but you better walk away right now.
You've never had a girlfriend?
Your mom says, "Don't go to Columbia with Candace, Derek."
1,095 days to go.
1,385 days from now.
3, 2, 1!
6, 5, 4...
10, 9, 8, 7...
1150. I think I'll get into NYU.

Living room routine. Living room routine.

Please, come in. Okay.
Really? I do.
Shh! Shut "Don't go to Columbia!"
So what do you think happened? I don't know.
Something's wrong with me. Don't worry about it.
That looks nice. Hmm.
That's how you... Make friends in the real world.
The cover is hand painted. Oh, wow.
The dance was a little boring, don't you think? You are so selfish.
They said in health class... Hello?
Ugh! Let's just go to Kings.
We're gonna see each other in New York. All the time.
What about Eides? You love Eides, right? Yeah, of course. They're great.
What did I do? You didn't do anything.

Yeah, well... Hey!
Yeah? Shakespeare.

You'd hope it would be warm. Yeah, piss off, Tennessee Tuxedo.
'Cause she doesn't have 1,095 days to go.
'Cause you deserve it.
"Alice, I know you'll get into NYU."
"Asleep." It's from Louder than Bombs.
"at the main campus immediately following your high school graduation."
"Callahan," sergeant said...
"Freak"? That kinda thing?
"Pearly Dewdrops' Drop."
"pick people who treat us like we're nothing?"
"Surviving your fascist shop teacher..."
"We will require you to take our summer session..."
"You go kill some gooks."
"you put down that prick punch."
