I truly believed.
Creekwood seemed even more accepting than I dreamed.
Hi, I'm Mia.
Victor.
OK, well, hi.
Is there a girl back home or--
Here was my chance.
All I had to do was tell these open-minded city kids I'm still
figuring out that department.
But instead, I said, nope.
No girl back in Texas.
Hey, man, what's up?
It's Benji from school?
Oh, I just wanted to interview for the barista job,
but it's cool.
Lucky for you I'm the assistant manager.
Come on back.
Let's talk.
So Victor, you had any experience making coffee?
I have experience drinking coffee.
Well, it's not rocket science.
First, you take a porta filter and fill it with grounds.
[MUSIC] I think I just need to kiss it goodbye So baby,
bring it over tonight.
Now you try.
Here.
There you go.
Very natural.
I am so sorry.
It's fine.
You know what?
This is a bad idea.
I'm sorry I wasted your time.
Somebody get him.
[WHISTLE BLOWS]
All right, hold up, hold up.
Man?
Victor, Victor, sweetie, come here.
Come here.
I got to talk to you.
Victor, hey.
You know, I'm not just a PE teacher.
I also coach varsity basketball.
Cool.
Is it cool?
I've been doing it for 24 years, and I
have zero championships under my belt.
I need that championship trophy, Victor.
So do you want to join the team, or what?
Well, yeah. Yeah, of course.
You're on the team.
Congratulations.
Thank you so much.
Hey, no problem.
Andrew, Andrew, where are you?
Come here, come here.
Yes, coach?
Victor's on the team.
How about that, huh?
Wow.
Great.
He's lit, bro.
Funniest thing we've ever done.
What is this?
Here, take a look.
Leave him alone.
What the hell are you doing?
What do you care?
He's a loser.
He's my friend, OK?
Come on, Vics.
And it says, "looser," you idiots.
You brought me to an art show.
Yeah.
I saw this ad for an art of the future exhibit
and you're artist of the future, so I just thought--
if you think this is totally lame?
No, I think this is totally sweet.
Can you touch this?
Wow, it's so weird.
It's like soft, but rough at the same time.
It's like also kind of wet.
This sculpture is an undigested ball of trash
pulled from a whale's rectum.
Was I lovable once, really, at one stage?
It's just a teaser, and you've done more than your bit already
for the time being.
What on earth?
I have no idea.
I thought her husband was named Willy or something
and trapped her in a box.
No, not the monologue, Mia.
I miss your muscular legs?
Holy cow, she wants you bad.
Shhh.
The day is now in the past.
What should I write back?
I don't know.
Nobody's ever missed my legs before.
[PHONE VIBRATES]
He thumbs upped my text.
Friday is our one-year anniversary.
We're supposed to go see his friend's band downtown,
but I want to do something romantic for him.
Where'd you go for your first date?
We got spaghetti and meatballs at this corny Italian place.
The food was good, but it ended up getting shut
down by the health department.
God, I love meatballs.
So ugly, so delicious.
OK.
Maybe this is a little cheesy, but you
could recreate your first date.
You could have your own Italian restaurant,
but just you and Derek.
I could do it here after we close.
Light some candles, put on some Italian accordion music.
Yeah.
Well, Victor, who knew you were such a romantic?
[MUSIC] People say that I'm a rock star.
They can stay up all night.
I actually like it a lot.
Looking good.
[MUSIC] Well just because I'm such a rock star.
Doesn't mean I want to get high.
