00:00:01,976 --> 00:00:04,204
<i>Previously on
The Hard Times of RJ Berger...</i>

2
00:00:04,205 --> 00:00:05,410
Happy birthday!

3
00:00:05,477 --> 00:00:07,544
I have a really special
gift for you tonight.

4
00:00:07,612 --> 00:00:08,712
It comes in a box.

5
00:00:08,780 --> 00:00:10,180
Come to the Max bash tonight.

6
00:00:10,248 --> 00:00:13,417
You want to bone down?
Then man up.

7
00:00:13,485 --> 00:00:14,451
Thank you.
Thank you.

8
00:00:14,519 --> 00:00:15,619
I've had enough of this!

9
00:00:15,687 --> 00:00:16,620
What did you call me?

10
00:00:16,688 --> 00:00:17,788
Here's to you, RJ Berger.

11
00:00:17,856 --> 00:00:19,056
You manned up.

12
00:00:19,124 --> 00:00:20,991
We're totally doing that again.

13
00:00:21,808 --> 00:00:25,863
Last night I had sex
with the most amazing girl.

14
00:00:28,967 --> 00:00:31,034
A girl who wasn't in a coma

15
00:00:31,102 --> 00:00:33,237
and who didn't die afterwards,

16
00:00:33,304 --> 00:00:36,106
which, for me, is a first.

17
00:00:40,078 --> 00:00:43,714
Even the fact that my mom
is boning my guidance counselor

18
00:00:43,781 --> 00:00:45,315
at this very moment

19
00:00:45,383 --> 00:00:48,018
can't take this smile off my face.

20
00:00:51,489 --> 00:00:53,957
You hate this, Berger. Stop smiling.

21
00:00:54,025 --> 00:00:56,260
Even Max can't stop this smile.

22
00:01:00,198 --> 00:01:01,398
Miles can't either.

23
00:01:01,466 --> 00:01:03,367
Hey.

24
00:01:03,434 --> 00:01:04,501
Yo!

25
00:01:04,569 --> 00:01:06,036
Dude, snap out of it.

26
00:01:06,104 --> 00:01:08,372
I got problems I need you
to listen to me bitch about.

27
00:01:08,439 --> 00:01:09,640
Sorry, miles.

28
00:01:09,707 --> 00:01:12,242
I've just been thinking about dropping...

29
00:01:12,310 --> 00:01:14,578
The word on Amy.

30
00:01:14,646 --> 00:01:17,047
The... oh! "Anal"?

31
00:01:17,115 --> 00:01:19,216
No! The word.

32
00:01:22,387 --> 00:01:24,154
No.

33
00:01:24,222 --> 00:01:26,156
I like my word better.

34
00:01:26,224 --> 00:01:27,925
<i>My name is RJ Berger,</i>

35
00:01:27,992 --> 00:01:31,295
<i>and I think I'm in love.</i>

36
00:01:42,273 --> 00:01:43,640
Hey, RJ.

37
00:01:43,708 --> 00:01:45,242
Oh, no.

38
00:01:45,310 --> 00:01:46,843
Dad, are they kicking you out?

39
00:01:46,911 --> 00:01:49,112
Oh, no, no, no, no.
I'm kicking myself out.

40
00:01:49,180 --> 00:01:50,614
There's big plans afoot for your dad.

41
00:01:50,682 --> 00:01:52,182
Big plans.

44
00:01:56,321 --> 00:01:57,888
I'm moving back in with mommy.

45
00:01:57,956 --> 00:01:59,489
What? Dad!

46
00:01:59,557 --> 00:02:00,924
Oh, my God, dad. That's terrific.

47
00:02:00,992 --> 00:02:02,659
Mom didn't mention anything to me.

48
00:02:02,727 --> 00:02:04,728
Oh, 'cause she doesn't
know about it. Yet.

49
00:02:04,796 --> 00:02:07,564
When I saw her at your party last night,

50
00:02:07,632 --> 00:02:11,268
everything... everything just
came back into focus for me.

51
00:02:11,336 --> 00:02:13,437
That's the power, RJ.

52
00:02:13,504 --> 00:02:17,341
The power of love.

53
00:02:19,510 --> 00:02:21,144
Hey, dad?

54
00:02:22,680 --> 00:02:26,917
What would you say if I was to tell a girl

55
00:02:26,985 --> 00:02:28,151
that I love her?

56
00:02:28,219 --> 00:02:30,620
Son...

57
00:02:30,688 --> 00:02:33,223
If I were the old,
smelly, world-hating me,

58
00:02:33,291 --> 00:02:34,891
I would say, "don't do it.

59
00:02:34,959 --> 00:02:38,295
Love is a lie, and
women are spider whores."

60
00:02:38,363 --> 00:02:40,197
But the new me?

61
00:02:40,264 --> 00:02:43,000
The new me says, "shout
it from the mountain tops!"

62
00:02:43,067 --> 00:02:44,434
Oh, my boy.

63
00:02:44,502 --> 00:02:46,903
<i>'Cause it feels
so good, so good</i>

64
00:02:46,971 --> 00:02:48,338
<i>that you're by my side</i>

65
00:02:48,406 --> 00:02:51,508
<i>oh it feels so good, so good</i>

66
00:02:51,576 --> 00:02:55,212
<i>that I can't sleep at night</i>

67
00:02:55,279 --> 00:02:57,114
It's 11:19.

68
00:02:57,181 --> 00:02:58,482
Do you know what that means?

69
00:02:58,549 --> 00:03:00,484
No. What's... What's that mean?

70
00:03:00,551 --> 00:03:03,286
It means we have exactly 11
minutes till our next class.

71
00:03:03,354 --> 00:03:06,289
Just enough time to sneak
away to someplace private.

72
00:03:06,357 --> 00:03:08,492
That's amazing,

73
00:03:08,559 --> 00:03:11,428
because I have a big present for you.

74
00:03:12,830 --> 00:03:14,765
It's a snickerdoodle cookie.

75
00:03:14,832 --> 00:03:16,066
Know how much you like them.

76
00:03:16,134 --> 00:03:19,202
Oh, that's so sweet of you to remember.

77
00:03:19,270 --> 00:03:20,404
I love...

78
00:03:20,471 --> 00:03:25,642
I love you too.

79
00:03:25,710 --> 00:03:27,944
Oh. Yeah, well...

80
00:03:28,012 --> 00:03:30,347
Um, no, I was actually going to say

81
00:03:30,415 --> 00:03:32,983
that I love... snickerdoodles.

82
00:03:33,051 --> 00:03:35,385
Yeah, I knew that. I was joking.

83
00:03:35,453 --> 00:03:38,822
Yeah, well, um...

84
00:03:38,890 --> 00:03:41,725
I forgot I have to study, so...

85
00:03:41,793 --> 00:03:43,093
Wait, Amy, 'cause I just...

86
00:03:43,161 --> 00:03:45,829
I didn't mean it to come out...

87
00:03:45,897 --> 00:03:48,131
And then it just slipped out.

88
00:03:48,199 --> 00:03:50,667
RJ, the goal is to
be slipping things in.

89
00:03:50,735 --> 00:03:52,869
Well, I said it, and she freaked out,

90
00:03:52,937 --> 00:03:54,504
so now what am I supposed to do?

91
00:03:54,572 --> 00:03:56,440
Act like a German in 1948

92
00:03:56,507 --> 00:03:58,141
and pretend it never happened.

93
00:03:58,209 --> 00:03:59,643
Fight the future!

94
00:03:59,710 --> 00:04:02,112
Vote the non-douchebag party.

95
00:04:02,180 --> 00:04:03,580
The non
douchebag party?

96
00:04:03,648 --> 00:04:05,682
Doesn't Max usually run
opposed for this type of thing?

97
00:04:05,750 --> 00:04:07,451
Well...

98
00:04:07,518 --> 00:04:09,486
Typically.

99
00:04:09,554 --> 00:04:11,555
What?

100
00:04:11,622 --> 00:04:14,558
Well, I... Max and Jenny
usually run unopposed,

101
00:04:14,625 --> 00:04:16,126
but now the "douche-verse" split in two.

102
00:04:21,466 --> 00:04:22,732
What the hell?

103
00:04:22,800 --> 00:04:24,501
Why is my name on this with Jenny?

104
00:04:24,569 --> 00:04:26,002
'Cause you got nominated.

105
00:04:26,070 --> 00:04:28,138
By who?

106
00:04:28,206 --> 00:04:29,706
- The...
- Uh...

107
00:04:29,774 --> 00:04:31,341
- Student body.
- Student body.

108
00:04:31,409 --> 00:04:33,310
Jenny and I broke up.

109
00:04:33,377 --> 00:04:35,345
We're not a couple anymore.

110
00:04:35,413 --> 00:04:37,180
Oh, my God. Amy's going to kill me

111
00:04:37,248 --> 00:04:38,715
when she hears about this.

112
00:04:38,783 --> 00:04:40,383
RJ, no matter what happens with Amy,

113
00:04:40,451 --> 00:04:42,519
it won't be as bad as the next two years

114
00:04:42,587 --> 00:04:46,389
if Max and Robin win this.

115
00:04:46,457 --> 00:04:47,557
The day after Max and Robin

116
00:04:47,625 --> 00:04:50,160
won Mr. and Ms. Pinkerton,

117
00:04:50,228 --> 00:04:52,395
the douchebags became self-aware.

118
00:04:52,463 --> 00:04:54,564
School became a nightmare for anyone

119
00:04:54,632 --> 00:04:58,401
who didn't have flawless
skin and perfect teeth.

120
00:04:58,469 --> 00:05:00,170
The outcasts were hunted from above,

121
00:05:00,238 --> 00:05:02,772
rounded up and terminated,

122
00:05:02,840 --> 00:05:05,142
while Max and Robin
were worshipped as gods.

123
00:05:05,209 --> 00:05:07,544
Long live the jocks!

124
00:05:07,612 --> 00:05:09,746
Long live the jocks!

125
00:05:14,986 --> 00:05:17,187
And the one boy

126
00:05:17,255 --> 00:05:18,655
who could've stopped them

127
00:05:18,723 --> 00:05:20,857
could only watch as Pinkerton high

128
00:05:20,925 --> 00:05:22,893
became a hellish
a-jock-alypse.

129
00:05:22,960 --> 00:05:27,464
RJ! Why didn't you listen?

130
00:05:27,532 --> 00:05:31,401
Amy!

131
00:05:34,305 --> 00:05:37,774
Okay, I think you're
slightly exaggerating.

132
00:05:37,842 --> 00:05:41,745
Junior year is not going to
look like Terminator salvation.

133
00:05:41,812 --> 00:05:44,581
It will if we don't
do something about it.

134
00:05:44,649 --> 00:05:46,783
Pinkerton needs you, RJ.

135
00:05:46,851 --> 00:05:49,786
Now more than ever.

136
00:05:51,489 --> 00:05:53,290
Come with me, RJ.

137
00:05:57,662 --> 00:06:00,096
Behold the enemy.

138
00:06:00,164 --> 00:06:01,932
Yo, yo, free sneakers.

139
00:06:01,999 --> 00:06:03,800
Vote Max and Robin.

140
00:06:03,868 --> 00:06:05,635
Vote for Robin and Max.

141
00:06:05,703 --> 00:06:07,704
There you go.

142
00:06:07,772 --> 00:06:08,939
Yeah.

143
00:06:09,006 --> 00:06:11,474
There you go.

144
00:06:11,542 --> 00:06:14,044
No. No. Absolutely not.

145
00:06:14,111 --> 00:06:15,345
There's no way...

146
00:06:15,413 --> 00:06:16,980
I've already messed
up with Amy once today.

147
00:06:17,048 --> 00:06:18,081
There's no way I'm...

148
00:06:18,149 --> 00:06:20,150
Dude, you're missing the point.

149
00:06:20,218 --> 00:06:22,953
You've been Max Owens' bitch for 16 years.

150
00:06:23,020 --> 00:06:24,654
Don't you want to get even?

151
00:06:24,722 --> 00:06:27,090
Yeah, I do, but not enough to
jeopardize what I have with Amy.

152
00:06:27,158 --> 00:06:29,326
No, miles. For real.

153
00:06:36,834 --> 00:06:38,868
Did you see dancing
with the stars last night?

154
00:06:41,973 --> 00:06:43,974
It was really good.

155
00:06:49,547 --> 00:06:52,182
Ooh, RJ, you're home.

156
00:06:52,250 --> 00:06:54,884
I have some exciting news.

157
00:06:54,952 --> 00:06:57,320
Oh, my God. Is dad moving in?

158
00:06:57,388 --> 00:06:58,288
Ta dah!

159
00:06:58,356 --> 00:06:59,522
Holy jeribus!

160
00:06:59,590 --> 00:07:01,591
That's my boy. You hear that, Suzy?

161
00:07:01,659 --> 00:07:03,426
- He's already calling me daddy.
- What?

162
00:07:03,494 --> 00:07:05,729
Uh, RJ, Jeriba and I have been talking,

163
00:07:05,796 --> 00:07:09,799
and we decided it's time
to take the next step.

164
00:07:09,867 --> 00:07:11,234
But you guys have only
been dating a few weeks.

165
00:07:11,302 --> 00:07:13,503
I know. I know it seems rushed,

166
00:07:13,571 --> 00:07:15,372
- but Jeriba got evicted.
- Yeah.

167
00:07:15,439 --> 00:07:18,675
And we've been spending
so much time together.

168
00:07:18,743 --> 00:07:20,143
Moving on up, Berger.

169
00:07:20,211 --> 00:07:24,914
To a deluxe apartment in the sky.

170
00:07:24,982 --> 00:07:26,349
This ain't the makings of a sit-com,

171
00:07:26,417 --> 00:07:27,550
I don't know what is.

172
00:07:27,618 --> 00:07:28,385
Right?

173
00:07:33,201 --> 00:07:35,436
This is serious, miles.
He's moving in with me.

174
00:07:35,503 --> 00:07:37,271
What's the big deal?

175
00:07:37,339 --> 00:07:39,273
So what? Coach's going to be dropping deuces

176
00:07:39,341 --> 00:07:41,308
and getting his mail at
the same address as you.

177
00:07:41,376 --> 00:07:42,543
How bad can it be?

178
00:07:42,610 --> 00:07:47,781
Son! Son!

179
00:07:47,849 --> 00:07:48,983
Hey, son.

180
00:07:49,050 --> 00:07:51,485
Forgot your lunch.

181
00:07:56,224 --> 00:07:58,058
Hair muss coming.

182
00:08:00,328 --> 00:08:02,229
Ah, damn that's nice.

183
00:08:05,934 --> 00:08:08,669
Okay, that was pretty bad.

184
00:08:08,737 --> 00:08:10,437
- Now can we get serious?
- Fine.

185
00:08:10,505 --> 00:08:12,973
I'll come up with something
brilliant and diabolical.

186
00:08:13,041 --> 00:08:14,141
That sounds promising.

187
00:08:14,209 --> 00:08:15,609
I'm going to go find Amy

188
00:08:15,677 --> 00:08:17,444
and try to explain this
whole Mr. Pinkerton thing.

189
00:08:17,512 --> 00:08:19,079
Okay.

190
00:08:23,818 --> 00:08:25,853
RJ...Want to explain?

191
00:08:32,761 --> 00:08:34,862
So you and the beauty queen

192
00:08:34,929 --> 00:08:37,064
are running for boyfriend
and girlfriend of the year.

193
00:08:37,132 --> 00:08:39,133
Okay, look, I was
meaning to talk to you...

194
00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:40,601
Oh, right, right.

195
00:08:40,668 --> 00:08:42,269
I guess you were just too
busy dropping the l-bomb on me?

196
00:08:42,337 --> 00:08:43,570
What?

197
00:08:43,638 --> 00:08:45,806
Listen, RJ, I need to know something.

198
00:08:45,874 --> 00:08:47,908
Um, did you just say "I love you"

199
00:08:47,976 --> 00:08:50,110
to me yesterday so I wouldn't be mad

200
00:08:50,178 --> 00:08:51,612
about the whole Mr. and Ms. thing?

201
00:08:51,679 --> 00:08:52,846
No.

202
00:08:52,914 --> 00:08:56,283
Amy, what you and I shared the other night

203
00:08:56,351 --> 00:08:58,652
was... amazing,

204
00:08:58,720 --> 00:09:00,821
and... and...

205
00:09:00,889 --> 00:09:03,323
It... it's much more than
any popularity contest.

206
00:09:03,391 --> 00:09:04,825
If you want me to drop
out, I will. This...

207
00:09:04,893 --> 00:09:06,226
RJ, you're a big boy, okay?

208
00:09:06,294 --> 00:09:07,928
I'm not going to tell you what to do.

209
00:09:07,996 --> 00:09:11,598
Don't expect me to like watching
you and Jenny parade around.

210
00:09:11,666 --> 00:09:12,966
OK, it's not like that.

211
00:09:13,034 --> 00:09:15,302
I want to believe you, RJ.

212
00:09:15,370 --> 00:09:16,303
I really do.

213
00:09:16,371 --> 00:09:19,106
But it just feels like that.

214
00:09:21,576 --> 00:09:23,477
I think I just need...

215
00:09:23,545 --> 00:09:26,647
A little time.

216
00:09:26,714 --> 00:09:30,317
Amy.

217
00:09:35,623 --> 00:09:38,225
This is your brilliant, diabolical plan?

218
00:09:38,293 --> 00:09:40,527
Break into coach's office?

219
00:09:40,595 --> 00:09:43,230
Come on.

220
00:09:43,298 --> 00:09:44,364
Are you kidding me?

221
00:09:44,432 --> 00:09:46,366
Look at this place.

222
00:09:46,434 --> 00:09:48,102
It's like a storage room

223
00:09:48,169 --> 00:09:49,837
filled with illegal
and incriminating stuff.

224
00:09:49,904 --> 00:09:51,672
Here.

225
00:09:51,739 --> 00:09:53,240
I wouldn't be a bit surprised

226
00:09:53,308 --> 00:09:55,275
if we found, like, prescription pills.

227
00:09:55,343 --> 00:09:57,978
Gambling receipts.

228
00:09:58,046 --> 00:10:00,080
Maybe even some porn.

229
00:10:00,148 --> 00:10:03,250
Oh! Bingo.

230
00:10:03,318 --> 00:10:05,752
Gentlemen, start your boners.

231
00:10:05,820 --> 00:10:07,187
That's not what we're looking for.

232
00:10:07,255 --> 00:10:08,255
It's what I'm looking for.

233
00:10:08,323 --> 00:10:09,790
Come on... come on!

234
00:10:09,858 --> 00:10:12,793
Whoa! Hold on!

235
00:10:12,861 --> 00:10:15,529
Look! There's, like,
dozens of naked pictures

236
00:10:15,597 --> 00:10:16,730
of the same chick here.

237
00:10:16,798 --> 00:10:18,232
Can't see her face.

238
00:10:18,299 --> 00:10:19,666
Face, "shmace."

239
00:10:19,734 --> 00:10:21,268
Nice dark hair, though.

240
00:10:21,336 --> 00:10:22,836
That a reptile? What is that?

241
00:10:24,939 --> 00:10:26,940
Last time I saw something that nasty,

242
00:10:27,008 --> 00:10:28,342
Boba Fett was falling into it.

243
00:10:33,014 --> 00:10:35,082
Dude, look at the date stamp.

244
00:10:35,150 --> 00:10:37,951
Says this was taken last week.

245
00:10:38,019 --> 00:10:39,920
Miles, this is it!

246
00:10:39,988 --> 00:10:42,089
Coach is cheating on my
mom with another woman

247
00:10:42,157 --> 00:10:43,223
and we have proof!

248
00:10:43,291 --> 00:10:45,692
Yep, we show your mom these pictures,

249
00:10:45,760 --> 00:10:48,395
coach is out of your
house and your mom forever.

250
00:10:48,463 --> 00:10:50,764
Come on. We got to go.

251
00:10:59,741 --> 00:11:00,941
Oh, hi, boys.

252
00:11:01,009 --> 00:11:02,943
I was just making some
pierogi. You hungry?

253
00:11:03,011 --> 00:11:04,444
Surprisingly, no.

254
00:11:04,512 --> 00:11:06,680
And in a minute, you won't be either.

255
00:11:06,748 --> 00:11:09,616
Mom, we have something to show you.

256
00:11:14,455 --> 00:11:16,423
Boys, where did you find these?

257
00:11:16,491 --> 00:11:17,791
They're coach's.

258
00:11:17,859 --> 00:11:19,760
We found them in his office.

259
00:11:19,827 --> 00:11:22,996
He took pictures with
another woman. Last week.

260
00:11:23,064 --> 00:11:25,632
Yep, another woman
and a bearded dragon.

261
00:11:25,700 --> 00:11:26,633
Boys...

262
00:11:26,701 --> 00:11:28,368
Mom, I'm so sorry.

263
00:11:28,436 --> 00:11:30,270
I just... you know, we
thought you should know.

264
00:11:30,338 --> 00:11:32,773
I'm so sorry you had to see these.

265
00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:35,042
When Jeriba and I took these shots,

266
00:11:35,109 --> 00:11:36,376
they were meant to be a private thing

267
00:11:36,444 --> 00:11:38,545
between two consenting adults.

268
00:11:38,613 --> 00:11:39,546
And a reptile.

269
00:11:39,614 --> 00:11:42,416
Wait...What?

270
00:11:42,483 --> 00:11:45,219
I never ever meant
for you to see them, RJ.

271
00:11:45,286 --> 00:11:47,387
I know this must be really
traumatizing for you.

272
00:11:47,455 --> 00:11:48,689
This is you?

273
00:11:54,762 --> 00:11:56,763
Shh. It's okay.

274
00:11:56,831 --> 00:12:01,602
Let it out. Let it out.

275
00:12:08,309 --> 00:12:11,511
RJ, you all right?

276
00:12:11,579 --> 00:12:15,182
It's been a tough week.

277
00:12:15,250 --> 00:12:17,751
You want to talk about it?

278
00:12:17,819 --> 00:12:20,120
I think this particular
nightmare started

279
00:12:20,188 --> 00:12:23,090
when I accidentally
told Amy that I love her.

280
00:12:23,157 --> 00:12:26,460
Oh, RJ.

281
00:12:26,527 --> 00:12:29,997
Oh, that's wonderful.
That's not a problem.

282
00:12:30,064 --> 00:12:33,567
No, actually it is, mom. It's horrible.

283
00:12:33,635 --> 00:12:35,035
She looked at me like...

284
00:12:35,103 --> 00:12:38,438
Like I showed her a
picture of my mom's vagina.

285
00:12:38,506 --> 00:12:42,309
All right, can we just
forget about that? Okay?

286
00:12:42,377 --> 00:12:45,312
All right, RJ, your first love,

287
00:12:45,380 --> 00:12:47,147
it's a beautiful thing.

288
00:12:47,215 --> 00:12:48,682
Something to cherish.

289
00:12:48,750 --> 00:12:51,251
It was humiliating.

290
00:12:51,319 --> 00:12:52,886
No.

291
00:12:52,954 --> 00:12:54,521
You should never be embarrassed by love.

292
00:12:54,589 --> 00:12:56,156
I don't care what anyone says.

293
00:12:56,224 --> 00:13:01,128
Because if you hide your
feelings, you hide yourself.

294
00:13:01,195 --> 00:13:03,764
This would be a much better
conversation if I hadn't...

295
00:13:03,831 --> 00:13:05,198
You hadn't seen my hoo
ha today.

296
00:13:05,266 --> 00:13:07,868
I know that, sweetie. I know.

297
00:13:07,935 --> 00:13:10,103
Sorry.

298
00:13:12,907 --> 00:13:14,074
My sweet boy.

299
00:13:20,748 --> 00:13:23,317
Hamilton, do you want to come
to my house after school today?

300
00:13:23,384 --> 00:13:26,653
My mom's at adult gymnastics until 4:00.

301
00:13:26,721 --> 00:13:29,089
And I have my own floor
routine I want to show you.

302
00:13:29,157 --> 00:13:30,757
Yo, I love you, baby.

303
00:13:30,825 --> 00:13:31,792
Oh, I love you more.

304
00:13:31,859 --> 00:13:32,993
I love you most.

305
00:13:34,062 --> 00:13:37,664
Oh, come on.

306
00:13:37,732 --> 00:13:40,500
Could you guys please cut that out?

307
00:13:40,568 --> 00:13:41,768
Thanks.

308
00:13:41,836 --> 00:13:43,870
Whoa. RJ, are you okay?

309
00:13:43,938 --> 00:13:45,906
No. No, I'm not okay.

310
00:13:45,973 --> 00:13:48,975
I got nominated for this
stupid Mr. Pinkerton thing,

311
00:13:49,043 --> 00:13:51,378
and then the girl I love hates me,

312
00:13:51,446 --> 00:13:53,814
and... and on top of
that, I saw my mom's...

313
00:13:56,084 --> 00:13:59,019
Never mind.

314
00:13:59,087 --> 00:14:00,787
RJ...

315
00:14:00,855 --> 00:14:04,024
There's something you should know.

316
00:14:04,092 --> 00:14:05,992
What?

317
00:14:06,060 --> 00:14:09,930
The student body didn't
put your name on the ballot.

318
00:14:09,997 --> 00:14:12,132
We did.

319
00:14:17,850 --> 00:14:18,650
- You what?
- Oh.

320
00:14:18,717 --> 00:14:20,251
It was all of us, RJ.

321
00:14:20,319 --> 00:14:22,587
We all collected names to
put your name on the ballot.

322
00:14:22,655 --> 00:14:23,922
I forged mine.

323
00:14:23,989 --> 00:14:25,657
How could you do this
without asking me first?

324
00:14:25,724 --> 00:14:26,825
'Cause if we asked, you'd say no.

325
00:14:26,892 --> 00:14:27,992
And what about Amy?

326
00:14:28,060 --> 00:14:29,828
She's this close to dumping me now.

327
00:14:29,895 --> 00:14:32,464
Well, we would have nominated
her, but she's a junior.

328
00:14:32,531 --> 00:14:34,032
Besides, Jenny was
born to be miss Pinkerton.

329
00:14:34,099 --> 00:14:36,167
Yeah.

330
00:14:36,235 --> 00:14:37,669
Come on, dude.

331
00:14:37,736 --> 00:14:39,771
All we ever wanted was
to be popular and important.

332
00:14:39,839 --> 00:14:41,172
Is that so much?

333
00:14:41,240 --> 00:14:43,141
You're the only one who
can make that happen.

334
00:14:43,209 --> 00:14:44,476
Hey, yo, he's right, dog.

335
00:14:44,543 --> 00:14:46,578
All right? You just
throw a kick-ass party.

336
00:14:46,645 --> 00:14:48,313
And now that Jenny's
running on your ticket,

337
00:14:48,380 --> 00:14:49,747
we've got a real shot.

338
00:14:49,815 --> 00:14:52,250
Listen, if there was ever
a time to challenge Max,

339
00:14:52,318 --> 00:14:54,686
this is it, homie.

340
00:14:54,753 --> 00:14:56,554
RJ, if we do this together,

341
00:14:56,622 --> 00:14:59,324
we can take Max and Robin
down once and for all.

342
00:14:59,391 --> 00:15:01,659
The line must be drawn here!

343
00:15:01,727 --> 00:15:05,497
This far. No further.

344
00:15:05,564 --> 00:15:11,336
Look, everything you're
saying makes sense, but...

345
00:15:11,403 --> 00:15:14,906
I got to talk to Amy first.

346
00:15:14,974 --> 00:15:16,241
Can I have the rest of your sandwich?

347
00:15:16,308 --> 00:15:19,611
Yes.

348
00:15:19,678 --> 00:15:20,645
Amy.

349
00:15:20,713 --> 00:15:22,046
Hey, hey, hey, look.

350
00:15:22,114 --> 00:15:24,549
I know you're angry at
me, but you have to listen.

351
00:15:24,617 --> 00:15:26,184
It was my friends. The whole time.

352
00:15:26,252 --> 00:15:27,752
They planned the whole thing.

353
00:15:27,820 --> 00:15:28,987
They were trying to help me out.

354
00:15:29,054 --> 00:15:31,523
I had no idea. I swear.

355
00:15:31,590 --> 00:15:33,057
So your friends hate me,

356
00:15:33,125 --> 00:15:36,127
and it was their idea
to break us up. Great.

357
00:15:36,195 --> 00:15:37,862
No, no, no, that's...
That's not it at all.

358
00:15:37,930 --> 00:15:39,664
They were trying to help.

359
00:15:39,732 --> 00:15:41,199
They... I mean, come on.

360
00:15:41,267 --> 00:15:43,601
Weren't you the one who told
me to man up and take Max on?

361
00:15:43,669 --> 00:15:45,837
Manning up doesn't
always apply to Max, RJ.

362
00:15:45,905 --> 00:15:47,171
And it definitely doesn't mean

363
00:15:47,239 --> 00:15:49,140
do whatever your friends tell you to.

364
00:15:49,208 --> 00:15:50,775
I mean, one minute you tell me you love me

365
00:15:50,843 --> 00:15:52,043
and the next you're running

366
00:15:52,111 --> 00:15:53,545
in some stupid competition with your ex?

367
00:15:53,612 --> 00:15:55,813
Hit the brakes on the soap opera, RJ.

368
00:15:55,881 --> 00:15:59,317
I want to get off.

369
00:15:59,385 --> 00:16:03,755
Amy. Wait.

370
00:16:03,822 --> 00:16:05,323
RJ freaking Berger.

371
00:16:05,391 --> 00:16:07,492
And Jenny fraggin' Swanson.

372
00:16:07,560 --> 00:16:08,760
This is what happens

373
00:16:08,827 --> 00:16:11,029
when you let the morons
at the school vote.

374
00:16:11,096 --> 00:16:13,498
God, if we lose, Max, we're ruined.

375
00:16:13,566 --> 00:16:17,669
Do you get that? Ruined.

376
00:16:17,736 --> 00:16:21,039
Hello? I'm talking!

377
00:16:21,073 --> 00:16:23,675
Why I even bother?

378
00:16:34,887 --> 00:16:36,220
I can't believe you did this to me.

379
00:16:36,288 --> 00:16:38,723
I know. I'm so sorry, RJ.

380
00:16:38,791 --> 00:16:41,759
Really, I...

381
00:16:41,827 --> 00:16:44,896
That makes two of us.

382
00:16:44,964 --> 00:16:46,364
Look, you're going to get her back, okay?

383
00:16:46,432 --> 00:16:48,099
Yeah? How am I going to do that?

384
00:16:48,167 --> 00:16:49,734
Tell her that you love her.

385
00:16:49,802 --> 00:16:52,103
I tried that already
with disastrous results.

386
00:16:52,171 --> 00:16:53,204
Thanks.

387
00:16:53,272 --> 00:16:58,710
No, RJ, I mean really tell her.

388
00:16:58,777 --> 00:17:02,714
Look, I know that we messed up

389
00:17:02,781 --> 00:17:04,983
by nominating you for Mr. Pinkerton, okay?

390
00:17:05,050 --> 00:17:06,451
I'm sorry.

391
00:17:06,518 --> 00:17:10,455
But you're going to have to
talk to the entire school

392
00:17:10,522 --> 00:17:13,658
at this awards assembly.

393
00:17:13,726 --> 00:17:17,495
Including Amy.

394
00:17:17,563 --> 00:17:21,766
A guy like you can do big
things with a stage like that.

395
00:17:21,834 --> 00:17:23,167
If I didn't know any better,

396
00:17:23,235 --> 00:17:26,037
I'd think you were
manipulating me, Jenny Swanson.

397
00:17:27,873 --> 00:17:30,074
I'm smarter than I look, RJ Berger.

398
00:17:41,943 --> 00:17:43,544
Yep.

399
00:17:48,283 --> 00:17:51,085
You wanted to see me?

400
00:17:51,152 --> 00:17:52,786
Have a seat, son.

401
00:17:52,854 --> 00:17:54,888
I'm not your son.

402
00:17:54,956 --> 00:17:58,892
Well, I been meaning
to talk to you about that.

403
00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,362
You see, as your guidance counselor,

404
00:18:01,429 --> 00:18:03,731
I don't want to make
things harder for you.

405
00:18:03,798 --> 00:18:06,800
But as a man,

406
00:18:06,868 --> 00:18:09,303
well, I just can't quit your mama.

407
00:18:09,371 --> 00:18:11,572
But that isn't got to be bad.

408
00:18:11,639 --> 00:18:12,973
The way I see it,

409
00:18:13,041 --> 00:18:14,608
we both done been up in
your mama's honey pot.

410
00:18:14,676 --> 00:18:16,210
You came out, I went in.

411
00:18:16,277 --> 00:18:18,979
It's the circle of life, Berger.

412
00:18:19,047 --> 00:18:20,948
Hakuna matata.

413
00:18:24,152 --> 00:18:27,287
Son, the point is,

414
00:18:27,355 --> 00:18:29,390
I've decided to stop dating your mother.

415
00:18:29,457 --> 00:18:32,960
Oh, thank God.

416
00:18:33,027 --> 00:18:36,130
And I'm going to ask her...

417
00:18:36,197 --> 00:18:38,565
To become Mrs. coach Jeriba Sinclair.

418
00:18:42,437 --> 00:18:44,471
Can I call you "son" for real?

419
00:18:49,644 --> 00:18:51,845
Yeah, think on it.

420
00:20:13,495 --> 00:20:15,296
<i>My name is RJ Berger,</i>

421
00:20:15,363 --> 00:20:18,465
<i>and what the...?</i>
