00:00:11,678 --> 00:00:13,428
[man] This is Ben Gross.
2
00:00:13,513 --> 00:00:16,223
He's a 15-year-old boy
from Sherman Oaks, California,
3
00:00:16,307 --> 00:00:18,807
and I am American actor,
producer, writer,
4
00:00:18,893 --> 00:00:20,853
and fake rapper Andy Samberg.
5
00:00:20,937 --> 00:00:24,147
What can I say? I wear a lot of hats.
Now, you may be asking yourself,
6
00:00:24,232 --> 00:00:27,612
"Why is Andy Samberg narrating the story
of this particular boy?"
7
00:00:27,694 --> 00:00:30,454
Well, honestly, his dad's my lawyer,
and I owe him a favor,
8
00:00:30,947 --> 00:00:34,447
but Ben seems like a good kid,
so, happy to do it.
9
00:00:34,534 --> 00:00:36,244
Fresh off a successful wine heist
10
00:00:36,327 --> 00:00:38,617
where his greatest nemesis
became an unexpected ally,
11
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:40,710
Ben felt on top of the world,
12
00:00:40,790 --> 00:00:42,630
or at least on top of Model UN
13
00:00:42,709 --> 00:00:45,249
where in just a few hours,
the highly coveted golden gavel
14
00:00:45,336 --> 00:00:48,296
would be safely tucked away
in his weird little briefcase.
15
00:00:48,381 --> 00:00:50,971
Equatorial Guinea would like
to formally request permission
16
00:00:51,051 --> 00:00:52,091
to nuke the United States.
17
00:00:52,177 --> 00:00:53,887
[Samberg] Unfortunately, for Ben, however,
18
00:00:53,970 --> 00:00:56,970
his new ally decided to go back
to being his old nemesis.

[Samberg] Had Ben imagined
the nice conversation they had last night?
27
00:01:20,455 --> 00:01:23,035
Had he said something weird
while he was drunk on grigio?
28
00:01:23,416 --> 00:01:25,836
And to make matters worse,
it was a six-hour drive,
29
00:01:25,919 --> 00:01:29,089
and Ben realized he left his AirPods
back in the hotel room.

I'm going to a self-actualization retreat
in Santa Barbara.
38
00:01:54,656 --> 00:01:56,116
Didn't you just do that?
39
00:01:56,199 --> 00:01:59,289
{\an8}No, I went to a mindfulness workshop
in Santa Clara.
40
00:01:59,661 --> 00:02:02,331
{\an8}Very different philosophies,
but equally important.
41

{\an8}Oh! You know what? I almost forgot.
47
00:02:14,717 --> 00:02:16,387

[Samberg] As friends go,
up through middle school,
83
00:04:01,074 --> 00:04:03,164
Ben had two solid ride-or-dies.
84
00:04:03,243 --> 00:04:06,003
{\an8}There was Brian Lakestone, who got
dropped off at school on a motorcycle,
85
00:04:06,079 --> 00:04:07,369
{\an8}and Garret Von Kaenel,
86
00:04:07,455 --> 00:04:09,365
{\an8}who could burp the theme song
to Game of Thrones.
87
00:04:09,457 --> 00:04:11,167
{\an8}But both ended up
at different high schools,
88
00:04:11,251 --> 00:04:15,211
{\an8}so as soon as Ben started dating Shira,
her friends became his friends.
89
00:04:15,296 --> 00:04:17,586
{\an8}Unfortunately, her friends stunk.
90
00:04:18,258 --> 00:04:21,428
{\an8}It's also body shaming
when people say curvy is beautiful.
91
00:04:21,511 --> 00:04:24,011
Because how's that supposed
to make us size zeros feel?
92
00:04:24,097 --> 00:04:26,597
Yeah. I mean I even feel that way
as a double zero.
93
00:04:27,308 --> 00:04:28,938
Hey, Shirs. Excited for the game tonight?
94
00:04:29,018 --> 00:04:30,978
Oh, my God. Sweetie, I totally forgot.
95
00:04:31,062 --> 00:04:34,232
I told Zoe I'd go with her
to a brow sculpting pop-up.
96
00:04:34,315 --> 00:04:36,315
But you told me
you'd go to the Clippers game,
97
00:04:36,401 --> 00:04:37,241
like, two months ago.
98
00:04:37,318 --> 00:04:39,738
Do you have to get
your brow sculpted tonight?

Oh, my God. Did you not see my Snapchat?

It'll be good for my Insta.
101
00:04:43,324 --> 00:04:48,294
Well, sitting courtside at an NBA game
is also pretty Gram-worthy, so...
102
00:04:48,371 --> 00:04:50,001
Maybe if it were a Lakers game,
103
00:04:50,081 --> 00:04:54,001
but my followers don't want to see
Billy Crystal eating nachos or whatever.
104

than the Lakers for years.

Hey, guys. How's it going?

So, uh, listen,
you two are into sports, right?
114
00:05:12,562 --> 00:05:14,862
Either of you wanna sit courtside
at the Clippers game tonight?
115
00:05:14,939 --> 00:05:16,189
I have an extra ticket.
116
00:05:16,274 --> 00:05:18,694
To go with you,
or to just, like, sit alone?
117
00:05:18,776 --> 00:05:21,066
No. You'd go with me and my dad.
118
00:05:21,154 --> 00:05:23,704
So, like, only one of us could go?
We couldn't both go?
119
00:05:23,781 --> 00:05:25,201
Like I said, it's a single ticket.
120
00:05:25,283 --> 00:05:26,703
But wouldn't that be weird?
121
00:05:26,784 --> 00:05:29,454
'Cause, like,
we're not really friends with you.
122
00:05:29,537 --> 00:05:31,457

I mean I've known you since kindergarten.
123

Maybe if we'd all hung out before.
Worked up to the game.
124
00:05:34,292 --> 00:05:36,502
I thought maybe this would be that bridge.
125
00:05:37,003 --> 00:05:40,053
But... yeah, never mind. Forget about it.

00:05:42,425 --> 00:05:44,675
[Marcus] Yeah, bro. He never talks to us.

00:05:44,761 --> 00:05:46,431
Oh, but if you don't go,
129
00:05:46,512 --> 00:05:48,972
we'll just take two of the tickets
and go with your dad.

-Why didn't I think of that?
-I know.

in this moment.

Can I go to the nurse's office?

I think I drank some bad milk.
157
00:06:50,827 --> 00:06:52,537
How do you know it was bad milk, Eric?
158
00:06:52,620 --> 00:06:55,120
Well, when I smelled it, it smelled bad,
159
00:06:55,623 --> 00:06:58,333
and then when I was drinking it,
it got way worse.
160
00:06:58,418 --> 00:07:00,498
I could barely finish my second glass.

to the Clippers game tonight?

for someone who apologizes for nuking--

00:07:22,608 --> 00:07:24,358
Just keep your nose out of my business
172
00:07:24,444 --> 00:07:26,324
and up the teacher's butt
where it usually is.
173
00:07:26,404 --> 00:07:29,124
[teacher] Quiet please.
No one should be boiling over
174
00:07:29,198 --> 00:07:31,778
except this beaker
of potassium permanganate.
175
00:07:37,665 --> 00:07:39,325
Mrs. Paloma, that's gonna be me
176
00:07:39,417 --> 00:07:41,997
if I can't go to the nurse's office.
Please!
177
00:07:42,086 --> 00:07:44,086
[Samberg] Why wouldn't Devi
want everyone to know
178
00:07:44,172 --> 00:07:46,132
she was hooking up with someone
out of her league?
179
00:07:46,215 --> 00:07:49,335
Paxton Hall-Yoshida made every other dude
in school feel bad about himself.
180
00:07:49,427 --> 00:07:51,177
He'd gotten pit hair in fourth grade!
181
00:07:51,262 --> 00:07:53,682
Had Paxton said or done something
to hurt Devi?
182
00:07:53,764 --> 00:07:55,604
And why did Ben even care?
183
00:07:55,683 --> 00:07:56,733
You need something, bro?
184
00:07:57,435 --> 00:07:58,265
What?
185
00:07:59,270 --> 00:08:00,440
Why are you looking at me?
186
00:08:00,521 --> 00:08:03,901
-Well-- [scoffs] I wasn't.
-Yeah, you were. You were staring at me.
187
00:08:04,859 --> 00:08:06,489
It's okay. Happens to me a lot.
188
00:08:06,569 --> 00:08:09,659
-What-- I wasn't stirring... staring.
-Then what were you doing?
189
00:08:09,739 --> 00:08:11,119
Um...
190
00:08:11,491 --> 00:08:12,741
Do you like the Clippers?
191
00:08:13,242 --> 00:08:14,082
What?
192
00:08:14,619 --> 00:08:15,499
Nothing.
193
00:08:16,204 --> 00:08:17,374
Forget about it. [chuckles]
194
00:08:18,998 --> 00:08:19,958
[Samberg] Yikes!
195
00:08:20,041 --> 00:08:22,841
The usually slick-talking Ben Gross
was for real off his game.
196
00:08:22,919 --> 00:08:24,629
But no worries,
the only game that mattered
197
00:08:24,712 --> 00:08:26,842
was the one he was seeing
with his dad in a few hours,
198
00:08:26,923 --> 00:08:28,973
and that was gonna be awesome.
199
00:08:35,306 --> 00:08:36,306
[phone chimes]
200
00:08:37,266 --> 00:08:40,266
[Ben's dad] Hey, buddy. I'm so sorry.
I don't think I'm gonna make it tonight.
201
00:08:40,353 --> 00:08:42,863
This Kanye deal is really complicated.
202
00:08:42,939 --> 00:08:45,109
You and Shannon should go
to the game without me.
203
00:08:45,191 --> 00:08:47,861
[Samberg] In his dad's defense,
Kanye's deal was complicated.
204
00:08:47,944 --> 00:08:50,034
He wanted to trademark the word "music."
205
00:08:50,112 --> 00:08:51,452
But that didn't matter to Ben,
206
00:08:51,531 --> 00:08:54,241
who was surprisingly sad for someone
who should have seen this coming.
207
00:08:54,325 --> 00:08:56,445
[Ben] That sucks. Can you reschedule?
208
00:08:59,705 --> 00:09:02,625
Typical. And her name is Shira.
209
00:09:06,963 --> 00:09:09,343
We will. Good luck with work.

-Hey, Patty.
-Oh! Yes, my sweet prince.
212
00:09:19,183 --> 00:09:21,313
Oh! I just ironed your socks
for the big game.
213
00:09:21,394 --> 00:09:22,564
Nice and warm.
214
00:09:22,645 --> 00:09:24,975
Actually, I just realized
that I got a lot of homework to do,
215
00:09:25,064 --> 00:09:26,774
so I don't think I'm gonna go to the game.
216
00:09:27,275 --> 00:09:28,315
And on an unrelated note,
217
00:09:28,401 --> 00:09:29,941
my dad also has too much work to do.
218
00:09:30,027 --> 00:09:32,777
So I guess being a workaholic
runs in the family.
219
00:09:33,406 --> 00:09:37,446
-[laughs] Anyway, do you want the tickets?
-Why don't we go together?
220
00:09:37,535 --> 00:09:40,575
I can bring a Ziploc bag
with frozen grapes in it, huh?
221
00:09:40,663 --> 00:09:42,963
Nah. I gotta write a thing,
222
00:09:43,040 --> 00:09:46,750
and, uh, do some, uh...
some-- some science and other stuff.
223
00:09:46,836 --> 00:09:48,876
Then I will stay here with you.
224
00:09:49,255 --> 00:09:52,545
Why don't we build a pillow fort,
and watch a scary movie like Shrek?
225
00:09:52,633 --> 00:09:53,763
It's okay, Patty.
226
00:09:54,302 --> 00:09:56,642
You should just go to the game.
Take your sons.
227
00:09:56,721 --> 00:09:57,811
Oh.
228
00:09:58,723 --> 00:10:00,523
You're a sweet boy.
229
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,020
I will place my body
in front of t-shirt cannon
230
00:10:03,102 --> 00:10:04,522
to bring you home souvenir.
231
00:10:05,062 --> 00:10:05,902
Thanks.

Do you think Billy Crystal will be there?

[announcer] Billy Crystal sharing nachos
with his neighbor,

00:10:27,877 --> 00:10:29,417
and she seems to be reciprocating
240
00:10:29,503 --> 00:10:31,713
with a bag of frozen grapes
from her purse.

on the Rick and Morty subreddit?

[Rick] LMAO. Same.

00:10:48,773 --> 00:10:51,573
Yo, I'm hitting up North End Pizza
in Burbank to watch the game

of hanging with another

Sit down. Get your slice on.

Uh... Yeah, I'm gonna withhold my name
for a moment. [chuckles]

Really thought you were gonna be younger.
Your username has a 69 in it.
264
00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:43,450
Oh, that's because I was born in 1969.

But I'm young at heart, fam.

Oh, I wonder what else we have in common.
268
00:11:49,500 --> 00:11:50,580
Probably a lot.
269
00:11:51,001 --> 00:11:53,671
I gotta be honest,
this setup feels sort of sketchy to me,
270
00:11:53,754 --> 00:11:54,844
so I'm gonna go.
271

Look, I get it. I'm a 50-year-old
insurance adjuster from Tarzana.

But I'm also a Rick and Morty fan,

00:12:01,303 --> 00:12:03,473
and I don't have anyone
to talk to about it.
274

I joked about getting a Mr. Meeseeks
for the office,

and my co-workers looked at me
like I was a total Jerry.

It'd just be nice to talk
to someone who gets me,

He was just as lonely,

have a huge age gap,

341
00:14:51,640 --> 00:14:54,890
Every night at dinner, I have to hear
about this rivalry of yours.
342
00:14:54,977 --> 00:14:57,857
"Ben Gross aced a math test.
Ben Gross aced a history test.
343
00:14:57,938 --> 00:15:00,068
Prescribe me Adderall
so I can beat Ben Gross."
344
00:15:00,149 --> 00:15:01,399
She's obsessed with me.
345
00:15:02,902 --> 00:15:04,952
Wait. You guys have dinner together
every night?
346
00:15:05,029 --> 00:15:06,449
Of course. We're family.
347
00:15:06,864 --> 00:15:07,784
All that to say,
348
00:15:07,865 --> 00:15:10,485
you're a very smart boy
with a very bright future.
349
00:15:10,576 --> 00:15:12,156
Your parents must be so proud.
350
00:15:12,244 --> 00:15:14,004
[Samberg] After a pretty bleak 24 hours,
351
00:15:14,079 --> 00:15:16,369
this small platitude
was more than Ben could handle.
352
00:15:16,457 --> 00:15:17,877
Here comes a little pinch.
353
00:15:20,878 --> 00:15:22,168
There we go.
354
00:15:24,214 --> 00:15:25,094
Dammit.
355
00:15:25,174 --> 00:15:27,434
I knew we shouldn't have bought
generic numbing cream.
356
00:15:27,509 --> 00:15:29,469
From now on, name brand only.
357
00:15:29,970 --> 00:15:31,390
Are you okay, sweetie?
358
00:15:31,472 --> 00:15:32,972
[voice breaks] I'm fine. Uh...
359
00:15:36,435 --> 00:15:39,095
I just... I haven't eaten dinner
with anyone in a long time.
360
00:15:39,730 --> 00:15:41,110
Oh, you poor thing.
361
00:15:41,190 --> 00:15:44,030
I'm fine. You know,
my life is totally awesome.
362
00:15:45,486 --> 00:15:48,196
[stammers] I don't even know why I cried.
Uh...
363
00:15:50,324 --> 00:15:52,334
Oh, maybe I was allergic to the shot.
364
00:15:53,243 --> 00:15:56,293
Or, uh... Or something.
Was there bee pollen in it?
365
00:15:56,372 --> 00:15:57,872
There was not.
366
00:15:58,457 --> 00:16:00,747
[chuckles, whimpers]
367
00:16:01,293 --> 00:16:03,173
[upbeat music]
368
00:16:04,713 --> 00:16:08,383
I like to put just one chili. Otherwise,
it kind of overpowers the taste.
369
00:16:08,467 --> 00:16:11,137
Everybody, we have a very special guest
for dinner tonight.
370
00:16:11,220 --> 00:16:14,640
Kamala, please lower
the spice level accordingly.
371
00:16:15,641 --> 00:16:17,481
Oh, hell no.
372
00:16:19,103 --> 00:16:21,113
[Samberg] As he stood
in his sworn enemy's kitchen
373
00:16:21,188 --> 00:16:22,558
awaiting the pity dinner to come,
374
00:16:22,648 --> 00:16:24,978
Ben's embarrassment
had reached a fever pitch.
375
00:16:25,067 --> 00:16:27,067
[Nalini] How can you be so rude
to that boy?
376
00:16:27,152 --> 00:16:28,362
[Devi] Because he sucks.
377
00:16:28,445 --> 00:16:30,405
It's bad enough
I have see him every day at school.
378
00:16:30,489 --> 00:16:32,239
Now we're just letting him into our home?
379
00:16:32,324 --> 00:16:34,034
So, Ben...
380
00:16:34,743 --> 00:16:36,623
what are you hobbies and interests?
381
00:16:36,704 --> 00:16:38,834
[stammers] Oh, well, I really am into--
382
00:16:38,914 --> 00:16:41,884
[Nalini] That young man is a human being,
and he's very sad.
383
00:16:41,959 --> 00:16:43,539
Do you know he cried in my office today?
384
00:16:43,627 --> 00:16:46,547
So many tears, I had to wipe down
the chair after he left.
385
00:16:46,630 --> 00:16:47,760
[Devi] That's not my problem!
386
00:16:47,840 --> 00:16:49,680
We just had the vents cleaned.
387
00:16:49,758 --> 00:16:52,088
It's crazy how well the sound carries.
388
00:16:52,177 --> 00:16:55,007
[Nalini] He's going through a hard time
with his family and girlfriend,
389
00:16:55,097 --> 00:16:58,137
and he had one of the nastiest pimples
I've ever seen in my career.
390
00:16:58,517 --> 00:17:01,097
-[pan clatters]
-Oops! Dropped my pan.
391
00:17:01,645 --> 00:17:03,355
I thought that would be loud for longer.
392
00:17:03,439 --> 00:17:05,819
[Nalini] You complain you want
your friends to come over more.
393
00:17:05,899 --> 00:17:08,569
-[Devi] Ben Gross is not my friend.
-[Nalini] Why not?
394
00:17:08,652 --> 00:17:11,322
He is nice, and smart,
and he could never buy drugs
395
00:17:11,405 --> 00:17:12,565
because he looks like a narc.
396
00:17:12,656 --> 00:17:15,076
Can't you be polite for just one evening?
397
00:17:15,451 --> 00:17:18,291
At least she said "nice" and "smart."
398
00:17:18,996 --> 00:17:21,076
Those are some of the best adjectives
there are.
399
00:17:21,165 --> 00:17:22,915
She also called me a narc.
400
00:17:23,000 --> 00:17:24,420
You should be proud of that.
401
00:17:24,501 --> 00:17:26,211
The police won't work with just anyone.
402
00:17:27,337 --> 00:17:30,047
Ben, it's so good to have you in my home,
403
00:17:30,132 --> 00:17:33,592
a place I usually consider a safe haven
from my nemeses.
404
00:17:33,677 --> 00:17:36,007
Devi, you promised you'd be polite.
405
00:17:36,096 --> 00:17:37,806
I said it was good
to have him in our home.
406
00:17:37,890 --> 00:17:39,810
If you want to stay
on the family cell phone plan,
407
00:17:39,892 --> 00:17:41,812
you're going to have to be better behaved
than that.
408
00:17:42,478 --> 00:17:45,308
Now, why don't you tell us
one thing you learned today at school.
409
00:17:45,397 --> 00:17:46,357
Fine.
410
00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,570
I learned that the tangent of theta
411
00:17:48,650 --> 00:17:51,610
is equal to the sine of theta
divided by the cosine of theta. Happy?
412
00:17:51,695 --> 00:17:52,565
Extremely.
413
00:17:52,654 --> 00:17:55,664
Today I learned that if you forget
your wallet at the grocery store,
414
00:17:55,741 --> 00:17:57,741
the cashier will pay
for your items personally,
415
00:17:57,826 --> 00:18:00,496
and even give you his phone number
to make sure you get home okay.
416
00:18:01,080 --> 00:18:05,000
Benjamin, I hear you were on
that last-minute Model UN trip to Davis.
417
00:18:05,084 --> 00:18:06,964
Oh, it wasn't so last-minute for everyone.
418
00:18:07,044 --> 00:18:09,254
Some of us spent months preparing
for that trip.
419
00:18:09,338 --> 00:18:13,428
But Devi came in with no preparation
and still became the talk of the weekend.
420
00:18:13,509 --> 00:18:15,719
Oh. Really? Why was that?
421
00:18:15,803 --> 00:18:16,643
No reason.
422
00:18:16,720 --> 00:18:19,520
[Samberg] If there had ever been
a perfect opportunity to nuke Devi back,
423
00:18:19,598 --> 00:18:20,428
this was it.
424
00:18:20,516 --> 00:18:23,476
Well, you know Devi.
She's a real firecracker.
425
00:18:23,560 --> 00:18:26,400
Oh, no. What did she do?
426
00:18:26,897 --> 00:18:29,357
[Samberg]
Instead, he decided to stand down.
427
00:18:30,442 --> 00:18:31,282
Nothing bad.
428
00:18:31,944 --> 00:18:35,164
She just brought a lot of passion
to her role as Equatorial Guinea.
429
00:18:35,239 --> 00:18:38,829
I mean, as a first timer, I don't think
anyone's ever made such a big impact.
430
00:18:39,493 --> 00:18:42,543
She, uh, truly obliterated
the competition.
431
00:18:42,621 --> 00:18:46,501
Mmm, Devi, sounds like
you are quite the little diplomat.
432
00:18:46,583 --> 00:18:47,713
Good for you.
433
00:18:47,793 --> 00:18:50,553
You know, when I was in school,
my only extracurricular activity
434
00:18:50,629 --> 00:18:52,509
was bathing my senile grandmother.
435
00:18:52,589 --> 00:18:54,169
She fought me every time.
436
00:18:54,258 --> 00:18:55,798
-[laughing] Really?
-What? No.
437
00:18:55,884 --> 00:18:58,644
[Samberg] Ben couldn't remember
the last family dinner he'd had.
438
00:18:58,720 --> 00:19:01,140
Probably May 2018, when his dad's flight
439
00:19:01,223 --> 00:19:02,933
to the Billboard Music Awards
got canceled.
440
00:19:03,016 --> 00:19:06,396
And even though this family dinner
featured humiliation, bickering, threats,
441
00:19:06,478 --> 00:19:08,518
and food that was far too spicy,
442
00:19:08,605 --> 00:19:10,265
it was still a family dinner.
443
00:19:10,607 --> 00:19:12,277
And that was pretty cool.
444
00:19:21,952 --> 00:19:22,792
Hey.
445
00:19:22,870 --> 00:19:23,910
Um...
446
00:19:23,996 --> 00:19:26,416
Thanks for not ratting me out
about Model UN.
447
00:19:26,957 --> 00:19:29,167
I've kinda been a dick
to you lately, so...
448
00:19:29,751 --> 00:19:31,381
I honestly would've deserved it.
449
00:19:31,461 --> 00:19:35,091
Yeah, well, sometimes it's fun to make
other people's days as shitty as yours,
450
00:19:35,174 --> 00:19:36,884
but today I didn't have it in me.
451
00:19:37,384 --> 00:19:38,764
What happened to you?
452
00:19:38,844 --> 00:19:40,804
And why did you cry at my mom's office?
453
00:19:40,888 --> 00:19:43,268
Was it just about the giant herpe
on your face?
454
00:19:43,348 --> 00:19:46,848
It wasn't a big deal.
I was... kinda feeling bummed.
455
00:19:46,935 --> 00:19:48,595
Why? Did you butler quit?
456
00:19:49,104 --> 00:19:51,984
Hey, I'm trying to be vulnerable here.
Also, we don't have butlers anymore.
457
00:19:52,065 --> 00:19:54,475
-We call them house managers now.
-Okay, okay. Sorry.
458
00:19:55,986 --> 00:19:58,196
Why are you feeling bummed?
459
00:19:59,740 --> 00:20:00,780
I don't know.
460
00:20:02,117 --> 00:20:05,157
I guess sometimes I feel like
I'm an NBA player, but...
461
00:20:06,163 --> 00:20:08,833
no matter how many points I score,
my dad always ignores me,
462
00:20:08,916 --> 00:20:11,286
and my girlfriend only likes me
for my money.
463
00:20:12,002 --> 00:20:15,092
I wish your metaphor had been
something more in my wheelhouse,
464
00:20:15,172 --> 00:20:17,882
like celebrity gossip
or YouTube promposals,
465
00:20:18,717 --> 00:20:20,757
but I think I understand
what you're getting at.
466
00:20:20,844 --> 00:20:23,814
Also, I'm sorry if I messed things up
for you and Paxton.
467
00:20:23,889 --> 00:20:25,349
Oh, you didn't.
468
00:20:25,432 --> 00:20:28,642
Well, maybe if I kept my mouth shut,
then you guys would've had a chance.
469
00:20:29,895 --> 00:20:31,685
I never had sex with Paxton.
470
00:20:32,481 --> 00:20:33,321
What?
471
00:20:33,732 --> 00:20:35,232
I never had sex with Paxton.
472
00:20:35,692 --> 00:20:37,652
I just let everyone believe that I did.
473
00:20:38,570 --> 00:20:42,780
Oh! So he's mad at you for lying
about having sex with him.
474
00:20:43,325 --> 00:20:44,945
That makes way more sense.
475
00:20:45,369 --> 00:20:47,159
I mean, we got close to hooking up.
476
00:20:47,246 --> 00:20:49,616
Well, as close as you can get
without kissing.
477
00:20:51,291 --> 00:20:53,091
He took off his shirt, and I freaked out.
478
00:20:54,086 --> 00:20:56,666
-I know. I'm a loser.
-Oh, you think you're a loser?
479
00:20:57,422 --> 00:21:00,632
I was so lonely, I got catfished
by a middle-aged man yesterday.
480
00:21:00,717 --> 00:21:03,677
Ben, you don't have to make up
something sadder to make me feel better.
481
00:21:03,762 --> 00:21:04,602
For real.
482
00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,310
He was a 50-year-old insurance adjuster
from Tarzana,
483
00:21:07,391 --> 00:21:09,061
and he asked me to blow on some pizza.
484
00:21:09,142 --> 00:21:11,272
-No.
-Yes. It was messed up.
485
00:21:11,353 --> 00:21:14,483
[Samberg] Ben guarded his sadness
the same way I guard my Emmy award,
486
00:21:14,564 --> 00:21:15,734
by burying it deep.
487
00:21:15,816 --> 00:21:17,776
I put all of my awards
in an underground bunker
488
00:21:17,859 --> 00:21:18,899
with my Garbage Pail Kids,
489
00:21:18,986 --> 00:21:21,946
but letting it all hang out there
left Ben feeling a little lighter
490
00:21:22,030 --> 00:21:23,120
and ready to face a new day.
491
00:21:25,784 --> 00:21:27,374
Give me your mechanical pencil.
492
00:21:27,452 --> 00:21:29,452
I need more photos of me looking smart.
493
00:21:29,788 --> 00:21:31,418
Oh. Sure. Yeah.
494
00:21:33,959 --> 00:21:34,999
[phone dings]
495
00:21:37,754 --> 00:21:40,634
[Devi] So you never have to accept food
from a pedo again.
496
00:21:43,218 --> 00:21:45,968
[Samberg] Although on the surface
it didn't seem like much had changed,
497
00:21:46,054 --> 00:21:49,064
today was the least lonely Ben had felt
in a long time.
498
00:21:49,808 --> 00:21:51,638
Anyways, that about does it for me.
499
00:21:51,727 --> 00:21:53,267
On behalf of Ben, Devi,
500
00:21:53,353 --> 00:21:55,443
and the whole gang
at Sherman Oaks High School,
501
00:21:55,522 --> 00:21:56,692
