TO YOUR COUNSELING CENTER.
BUT HONESTLY, IT'S KINDA
"TOMATOES-TOMAHTOES,"
RIGHT?
JUST KIDDING.

BEING A COMEDIAN, HMM?
YEAH, THAT'S--

A CHICKEN SALAD,
HOW LONG UNTIL THEY BRING YOU

I NEVER GE A CHICKEN SALAD.
AND YET YOU KEEP ASKING.

"CHILLAX"?

HANG OUT,

THAT STUFF IS VERY
HEALING, GUYS.
SO, WHAT MAKES YOU

I HATE WHEN PEOPLE

I DON'T WANT TO
TELL YOU SHIT, DUDE.
FINE.
WE'LL JUST SIT HERE
IN SILENCE.
SHOW US SOME COMEDY.
EXCUSE ME?
MISS LIAO
LOVES COMEDY.
REALLY?
OKAY.
YOUR WISH IS MY COMMAND.
ALL RIGHT, UH, WELL,
A JOKE COMES IN TWO PARTS.
YOU GOT YOUR SETUP,
AND YOU GOT YOUR PUNCH LINE.
"KNOCK KNOCK."
"WHO'S THERE?"
"JUSTIN."
"JUSTIN WHO?"
THAT'S YOUR SETUP.
BUT THE PUNCH LINE,
THAT'S WHERE YOU GE YOUR LAUGH.
"JUSTIN TIME FOR DINNER."
I'VE SEEN SUICIDE BOMBERS
THAT ARE FUNNIER THAN YOU.
-I THOUGHT YOU
WERE A COMEDIAN.
-NO, GUYS,
THAT'S AN EXAMPLE
OF JOKE STRUCTURE.
LOOK, OKAY, LOOK.
I WILL GIVE YOU A REAL JOKE
FROM MY ACT.
WE'LL USE THIS.
OKAY, ALL RIGHT.
SO I LOST MY VIRGINITY
TO A FRENCH GIRL.
WHICH IS KIND OF LIKE LEARNING
TO DRIVE ON A PORSCHE--
-BORING!
-HOW DO YOU KNOW
IT'S BORING?
I HAVEN'T FINISHED
THE JOKE YET.
MY MOTHER'S FRENCH, DUDE.
WELL, SHE MIGHT LIKE
A JOKE ABOUT HER.
YOU HAVEN'T SAID ANYTHING
REMOTELY FUNNY!
YOU GUYS GOTTA

I HAVEN'T GOTTEN

OKAY, YOU KNOW WHAT?
FORGET IT, FORGET IT.
LET'S JUST WATCH

A VIDEO TOGETHER.
WE'LL WATCH VIDEOS.

NOT AN EMISSARY
SENT FROM THAT HORDE

OH, NO, MAN.
THIS IS ALL JUS REALLY NEW TO THEM.
WHAT'S WITH "CHINESE
CHUCKLES" IN THERE?
KIND OF AN INTENSE WOMAN
FOR A WORKSHOP.
YEAH, MISS LIAO IS
TYSON'S YOUNGER COUSIN.
SO?
WELL, HE MANAGED
TO GET HER HERE
INSTEAD OF A ROOM
AT STATE.
SHE WAS A MAIL-ORDER BRIDE
OR SOMETHING.
HER HUSBAND UP IN FRESNO
USED TO HIT HER.
A LOT.
SHE BURNED HIS HOUSE DOWN.
PULLED A "LEFT EYE."
YEAH, I NEVER THOUGH ABOUT IT LIKE THAT.
-YEAH.
WHEN I WAS YOUNGER,
MY MOM WOULDN'T ALLOW ANY
CUSSIN' IN THE HOUSE.
I MEAN, YOU COULDN' WATCH ANYTHING.
BUT ME AND MY OLDER BROTHER
USED TO SNEAK "DELIRIOUS"
DOWN IN THE BASEMENT.
MY MOM SAID "FUCK"
ALL THE TIME, SO...
"DELIRIOUS"
IS GREAT, THOUGH.
HOW ABOUT YOU, MAN?
YOU GOT JOKES?
YEAH, YEAH, MAN.

I'LL TELL YOU WHAT.
NEXT TIME I'M HERE,

THAT'D BE GREAT, MAN.
HEY, BUDDY?

FALLS IN LINE.
THANKS, MAN.
COME ON. COME ON.

THIS IS YOUR IDEA.
YEAH, I KNOW.

NO, I COULD'VE
TOLD YOU OTHERWISE.
-ALL RIGHT, WELL.
-SEE, YOU SHOULD GO
WORK OUT WITH ME.
-I WORK OUT.
I CALL IT DRINKING AND--
NOT EATING RIGHT.
THIS IS BEAUTIFUL.
-THANK YOU.
-I DID THIS ALL MYSELF.
WHY DO YOU
PUT UP WITH ME?
I ACCEPT YOUR FLAWS
AND YOU ACCEPT MINE.
YEAH, BUT YOU
DON'T HAVE ANY.
EXCEPT MY TERRIBLE
TASTE IN MEN.
-HEY, THAT IS ME.
-IT IS YOU.
-OH.
-MM-HMM.
WHAT'S THAT?
I HAVE SOMETHING
TO TELL YOU.
OKAY.
I'M PREGNANT.
-THAT'S A GOOD JOKE.
-IT'S NOT A JOKE.

ALL RIGHT, LET'S--
THIS IS GREAT NEWS,
SWEETIE.

TAKE CARE OF OURSELVES.

HONEY, YOU'RE GONNA BE
AN AMAZING MOM.
-I CAN TRY BREASTFEEDING.
BABY, I'M GONNA GE INTO THE JUBILEE, OKAY?
AND THEN EVERYTHING
IS GONNA BE DIFFERENT.
EVERYTHING'S GONNA
TURN AROUND FOR US.
I PROMISE.
NEXT TIME, WARN ME BEFORE
YOU AND YOUR LITTLE "CHURRO"
DECIDE TO SPRING THIS
KINDA NEWS ON ME.
-THIS IS SUPPOSED TO
BE A GOOD THING, MA.
MAYBE IF YOU PEOPLE
BELIEVED IN THE USE
OF CONDOMS.
-LISTEN, DARLING, DON' LET HER TEAR US APART.
-PLEASE, STOP IT.
YOU THINK YOU CAN
TAKE MY SON AWAY FROM ME?
ALL YOU DO IS INSULT HIM.
YEAH, WELL, I CAN DO THAT.
HE'S MY GODDAMNED SON.
OKAY, GUYS, WE DON'T WANT TO
WAKE THE KOREAN NEIGHBORS--
WE HAVE A BOND.
A BOND OF REAL FAMILY.
A BOND OF COMEDY.
WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE,
FUCK FACE?
-BUDDY, YOU NEED TO TALK TO HER.
-SHE SAID SHE'S GONNA STOP.
-I NEVER SAID THAT.
-YOU NEED TO CHECK
YOUR MOTHER.
-CHECK YOURSELF
OUT THE DOOR!
-THANKS, MOM.
-WAIT.
-BYE!
I'M SORRY.
YOU'RE NOT MY MOM.
IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN,
.
WE'RE IN AMERICA.
DO NOT MAKE FUN OF BUGG.
DON'T TELL ME
WHAT TO DO!
JESUS!
ARGH!
CAREFUL, YOU'RE GONNA
SNAP HER IN HALF.
AMERICAN KIDS
HAVE NO RESPECT.
I KNOW.
I WAS ONE OF THEM.
-NO.
HOW DO YOU SAY "PAIN"
IN YOUR LANGUAGE?
"TONG."
BURNING DOWN HOUSES,
SCARING THE LIVING SHI OUT OF PEOPLE?
THAT SOUNDS LIKE
A LOTTA "TONG."
VANESSA TOLD ME
YOU HAD A DAUGHTER.
MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS.
I LIKE KIDS.
THEY'RE GREAT.
ALL SQUISHY,
THEY'RE CUTE.
THEIR HEADS SMELL AMAZING.
I BET YOUR DAUGHTER
WOULD LOVE I IF YOU JUST TRIED
ONE OF THESE DONUTS.
I TOLD YOU TO
MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!
-I DON'T KNOW WHA THAT MEANS.
MEANS "ASSHOLE."
OH, SO, I'M
A DOUBLE ASSHOLE?
EH, THESE ARE FINE.
HELLO, EVERYONE!
I COME BEARING GIFTS.
GET EXCITED, PEOPLE,
BECAUSE THESE BAD BOYS
ARE FRESH
AND THEY ARE WARM.
THAT'LL DISTURB MY DIGESTION.
IT'LL GIVE ME THE RUNS.
VERY, VERY WATERY POO.
THANKS FOR TALKING
ABOUT YOUR SHITS.
DR. YEE DOESN'T LIKE
OUTSIDE FOOD IN HERE.
IT'S JUST DONUTS, OKAY?
THOSE ARE FULL
OF SUGAR AND CARBS.
THAT'S WHAT GOES
INTO DONUTS.
MOMMY AND DADDY
WON'T LET YOU HAVE
THE GOOD STUFF EITHER?
-SHUT YOUR MOUTH, RETARD!
WHOA, WHOA!
GUYS, WE DON'T NEED
ANOTHER "DANGEROUS MINDS."
IT'S ALL GOOD.
SO YOU DO LIKE DONUTS.

MISS LIAO LIKES DONUTS.
OUR TEACHER

MISS LIAO DOES NOT ASK TWICE.
OKAY, I WILL BE BACK.
FUCKIN' PEOPLE.
DOOR'S LOCKED.
AH.

HEY, GUYS,
I KNOW IT'S COMMON.
I LOCKED MYSELF
OUT OF MY ROOM,
SO, UH, WHAT DO WE DO
IN THAT SITUATION?
TOUCHE.
YOUR WATER, PRECIOUS.
GREAT, NOW I CAN
CHECK "GETTING HAZED
BY THE MENTALLY ILL"
OFF MY BUCKET LIST.
GET EXCITED, CLASS.
WE'RE ABOUT TO HAVE
A HUGE LESSON,
'CAUSE TODAY WE'RE LEARNING
ABOUT THE HISTORY...
OF COMEDY.
ANY QUESTIONS?
YOU'RE WORSE
THAN MY COUSIN TAN.
HE WAS RETARDED.
...MASTURBATING
THIS MORNING,
AND ON MY WAY HERE,
IT MADE ME KINDA LATE.
SO... THAT HAPPENED.
AH, KNUCKLES.
I DIDN'T THINK YOU CAME
TO FRINGE SHOWS, BUDDY.
YOU KNOW, I MAKE
AN EXCEPTION
WHEN I'M ON THE FRINGE
OF BEING INTERESTED.
-OH! GOOD ONE.
-THANK YOU.
LOOK, I JUST WANT TO TALK
TO STEPHAN, OKAY?
I DON'T KNOW IF HE'S
GETTING MY MESSAGES.
STEPHAN'S NOT HERE.
HE'S LITERALLY
RIGHT BEHIND YOU.
-NO, HE'S NOT.
-JESUS.
IS HE EVEN LISTENING
TO THIS GUY?
-HE'S ABSORBING.
-MAYBE.
-LOOK, I JUST WAN TO TELL HIM
I'M DOING SOME
NEX I'M TAKING THINGS
IN A WHOLE NEW DIRECTION.
OH, THAT'S
A BOY BAND, RIGHT?
PRETTY GOOD ONE.
JUST LET ME--
CALM DOWN, OKAY?
STEPHAN'S GOTTEN

HE JUST DOESN'T WAN TO TALK TO YOU.
HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT,
KNUCKLES, OSMOSIS?
-WAY TO WORK IN
A CALLBACK.
-OH, THANKS.
HEY, STICK AROUND AND YOU CAN
WATCH A REAL PRO ON STAGE.
-ME.
THANK YOU FOR THA WARM WELCOME.
I APPRECIATE IT.
ALL RIGHT, GUYS,
I WANT TO TALK TO YOU
ABOUT A NEW JOB THAT I GOT.
I'M TEACHING
STAND-UP COMEDY
AT A PSYCHOLOGICAL
COUNSELING CENTER.
THAT'S RIGHT.
I'M TRYING TO TEACH
THE INSANE
HOW TO BE FUNNIER.
THAT'S LIKE TRYING TO TEACH
THE BLIND HOW TO DRIVE.
I MEAN,
WHAT'S THE POINT?
THERE IS
AN ASIAN WOMAN THERE
WHO IS COVERED IN CUTS.
I MEAN, SHE'S KIND
OF ATTRACTIVE,
PROVIDED YOUR TURN-ONS
INCLUDE
A HORRIBLE PERSONALITY
AND KNIFE SKILLS.
SHE IS A MAIL-ORDER BRIDE,
THOUGH, WHICH IS KIND OF COOL.
FIRST ONE I'VE EVER MET.
SHE BURNED HER HUSBAND'S
HOUSE DOWN.
IMAGINE HOW PISSED
YOU WOULD BE
IF YOU PAID FOR A WOMAN
TO BE SHIPPED FROM CHINA
AND THEN SHE BURNED
YOUR MOTHERFUCKING HOUSE DOWN.
SHE "LEFT-EYED" THIS GUY.
THERE'S AN AFGHANISTAN
WAR VE WHO IS A REAL CHARMER,
LET ME TELL YOU.
HE HAS SOME SERIOUS
ANGER PROBLEMS,
BUT HE'S SINGLE,
SO LADIES,
IF YOUR BUCKET LIS INCLUDES DEATH BY
MURDER-SUICIDE,
-I THINK I'VE GOT YOUR GUY.
BUT THE BEST PERSON THERE IS
A BLACK SCHIZOPHRENIC GUY
WHO GOT FIRED FROM VONS.
YOU HEAR THAT?
LET'S COUNT ALL THOSE
SHITTY THINGS
THIS GUY'S DEALING WITH.
I MEAN, HE'S A BLACK GUY.
SORRY, BUT HE'S ALREADY
GOT A FEW STRIKES AGAINST HIM
WITH THAT.
HE'S SCHIZOPHRENIC,
AND HE GOT FIRED FROM VONS!
WHO THE FUCK GETS FIRED
FROM A GROCERY STORE?
MY COUSIN IS 14,
AND HE'S A MANAGER THERE.
THE ONLY THING WORSE
THAN THAT IS AN INDIAN
IN A WHEELCHAIR
SWEEPING UP AT A CASINO.
HE'S SWEEPING!
THEY COULDN'T EVEN
GIVE HIM A JOB DEALING?
SO GUYS, WHEN YOU THINK
YOU GOT IT BAD,
KEEP IN MIND--
YOU'RE DOING ALL RIGHT.
-THANKS, GUYS.
GOOD NIGHT.
HE GOT FIRED FROM VONS.
HOW THE FUCK
DO YOU GET FIRED--
-IT'S THIS UGLY CAT MEME.
I DON'T KNOW.
MY NIECE SENT IT TO ME.
I'M ACTUALLY JUST GETTING
A TON OF WRITING DONE.
-THAT'S GREAT.
-YEAH.
I TOLD YOU YOU'D FIND
YOUR INSPIRATION.
-YOU WERE RIGHT.
-MM-HMM.
SO, HOW ARE YOU FEELING?
-HUNGRY.
-OH, LITTLE BABY.
I'M FINE.
-HAVE YOU CHECKED
YOUR MESSAGES?
-NO.
WHEN I'M AT WORK
TYSON SAID,
"DON'T CHECK YOUR PHONE."
-DON'T BE A DICK.
-THAT'S WHAT HE
SOUNDED LIKE.
DON'T BE A DICK.
YOU SHOULD CHECK
YOUR MESSAGES.
-HE'S CALLED
YOUR LAND LINE,
HE'S EVEN CALLED ME.
-STEPHAN MARTIN.
-UH-HUH.
THIS'LL ONLY
TAKE A SECOND.
HEY, THAT WAS
A VERY INTERESTING
PERFORMANCE LAST NIGHT.
YEAH, DID YOU SEE IT OR
DID YOU JUST ABSORB IT?
-HA, HA.
-WILL YOU PLEASE
BE QUIET?
WILL YOU PLEASE
ADHERE TO YOUR OWN
DHARMA EXPERIENCE?
UH, EVERYTHING OKAY
OVER THERE?
JUST SOME HUMAN SOUL
LOST IN SAMSARA.
SO THAT WAS QUITE
A DARK SET.
-COMPELLING.
-SHH!
-OH, THANKS, MAN.

WHERE THAT CAME FROM,
AND I KNOW YOU GO THE JUBILEE COMING UP, SO...

THE PHONE WITH BUDDHA?
BUDDHA CALLS NOW.
SO DO SHUT UP,

ANYWAY, LET'S SEE WHA YOU CAN DO ON THE JUBILEE
EMERGING STAGE.
NIGHT ONE.

AND I'LL BRING YOU BACK
FOR THE COMPETITION.
I WANT TO KISS
YOUR BALD HEAD.
THANK YOU!
OOH, I'M FUCKING THE WORLD!
I'M SORRY ABOUT THAT.
I... SHOULDN'T HAVE SAID THA TO A SOCIAL WORKER.
AH, I'M STILL FUCKING
THE WORLD, THOUGH! OH!
OH-HO, YES!
TO QUOTE THE PROPHE ICE CUBE,
"TODAY IS A GOOD DAY!"
OH, YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M GONNA TEACH YOU GUYS
A LITTLE COMEDY.
A LITTLE QUID PRO QUO.
WHAT DID WE DO FOR YOU?
-IT IS LATIN.
I THINK.
GUYS, NOT A LANGUAGE CLASS.
OH, LET'S GET BACK
TO OUR LESSON.
WHAT DID YOU GUYS TAKE
FROM THAT JERRY VIDEO?
HIS VOICE SOUNDS
NASAL AND STRANGE.
WELL, I LIKED IT.
I LIKED THE PUNCH LINES.
IT SEEMS LIKE HE THOUGH A LOT ABOUT 'EM.
YEAH.
THAT'S A GOOD
OBSERVATION, BUGG.
HERE'S ONE OF HIS CLASSICS.
"MEN WANT FROM THEIR UNDERWEAR
THE SAME THING THEY WAN FROM THEIR WOMEN--
A LITTLE BIT OF SUPPOR AND A LITTLE BIT OF FREEDOM."
I SAW THAT.
I SAW THAT, MISS LIAO.
YOU LIKED THAT ONE
DIDN'T YOU?
I DIDN'T KNOW THE COMMUNISTS
WERE FANS OF FREEDOM.
I HAVE PRETTY UNDERWEAR.
TARGET.
-OH.
OKAY, WELL,
LET'S NOT SHOW ANYBODY,
ALL RIGHT?
ANYBODY ELSE WANT TO
TALK ABOUT THEIR UNDERWEAR?
OH, I'M SO GONNA
GET FIRED.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S STAR THE LESSON.
HOW DO YOU NOT GE SCARED UP THERE
WHEN EVERYBODY'S
JUDGING YOU?
BELIEVE ME,
YOU'RE SCARED.
ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED.
BUT, YOU KNOW, YOU GOTTA
LEARN TO USE THAT FEAR.
YOU KNOW
HOW MOMS CAN, LIKE,
LIFT A CAR OFF
OF THEIR KIDS?
SAME THING WHEN
YOU'RE ON STAGE, MAN.
WHEN YOU'RE A COMEDIAN,
IT'S KILL OR BE KILLED.
HOW'D YOU GET STARTED
DOING THIS?
I JUST NEEDED SOMETHING
TO MAKE MYSELF FEEL BETTER
AFTER MY PARENTS
GOT DIVORCED.
YEAH, MY FOLKS
GOT DIVORCED TOO.
YEAH, PRETTY COMMON.
THAT'S IT, THOUGH.
MY FOLKS DIVORCE
MESSED ME UP.
THAT'S WHAT DROVE ME
INTO THE MILITARY.
YEAH, I COULDN'T GET IN.
-TOO MANLY.
ALL RIGHT, LET'S GE BACK TO THE LESSON--
YOU KNOW, WE'RE KINDA
EXPERTS ON PAIN.
THAT'S ALL WE FACE,
RIGHT?
THERE'S ALWAYS
SOMETHING MORE.
TELL US.
YOU GUYS WANT TO
HEAR A STORY?
ONE NIGHT, AFTER
MY MOTHER PASSED OUT...
I WENT INTO THE BATHROOM
AND TOOK ABOUT 20 PILLS.
APPARENTLY THAT'S
NOT ENOUGH...
BECAUSE I WOKE UP...
IN THE LONG BEACH CENTER
FOR MENTAL HEALTH.
I WAS THERE
FOR SIX MONTHS.
THAT PLACE
IS TERRIBLE.
TAKE THE GLASS
OUT OF THE MIRRORS,
SO YOU DON' KILL YOURSELF.
FOOD IS TERRIBLE.
JESUS, OLIVER,
YOU WOULD BE SO
DISAPPOINTED
IN WHAT THEY CALL
CHICKEN SALAD THERE.
ALL RIGHT...
HOW ABOUT WE LEARN
SOME COMEDY, HUH?
HEY.
HEY, BUDDY.
HEY, MAN.
HEY, THAT WAS...
THAT WAS REALLY COOL OF YOU
TO SHARE THAT WITH US TODAY.
WHAT'S A LITTLE STORY
ABOUT BEING INSTITUTIONALIZED
AMONG FRIENDS?
GOES A LONG WAY,
TRUST ME.
THANKS.
OH, UH--
OH, YES.
WE WERE GONNA GO OVER
YOUR JOKES TODAY, RIGHT?
-SURE.
YOU DON'T, UM...
YOU DON' HAVE YOUR NOTEBOOK
WITH YOU TODAY.
-THE NOTEBOOK THA YOU WRITE IN
AFTER EVERY CLASS?
YEAH, I JUST MUST'VE
FORGOT IT, OKAY?
IT'S NOT ABOUT ME.
COME ON, HIT ME.
ALL RIGHT.
UM... OKAY.
OKAY, ALL RIGHT.

THIS IS THE ONE?
ALL RIGHT.

"ONE COOL THING ABOU BEING SCHIZOPHRENIC IS
YOU NEVER
HAVE TO BE ALONE.
THERE'S ALWAYS ANOTHER
VOICE TO TALK TO
IN YOUR HEAD."
OKAY.

I-- I GOT--
I GOT A BETTER ONE--
IT DIDN'T SUCK.
YOU'RE JUST NO IN THE MOMENT RIGHT NOW.
I GOT AN IDEA,
COME ON.
FOLLOW ME.
TRY YOUR JOKE
WITH THE BALL.
-YEAH, YEAH.

OUT OF YOUR HEAD.
TRUST ME, IT WORKS.
I USED TO PLAY
IN GARRY SHANDLING'S
PICK-UP GAMES.
YOU KNOW A LO OF FAMOUS PEOPLE?
HMM.
I'VE BEEN TO THEIR HOUSES.
-OH! NICE!
YOU'RE TERRIBLE
AT BASKETBALL.
-SOCCER'S MORE MY THING.
NO.
JUST RELAX.
WE GOT ALL DAY.
WE GOT ALL DAY, OKAY?
JUST YOU,
THE BALL, THE HOOP.
ONE OF THE GREAT THINGS ABOU BEING SCHIZOPHRENIC IS
YOU NEVER HAVE TO BE ALONE.
THERE'S ALWAYS ANOTHER VOICE
TO TALK TO IN YOUR HEAD.
ESPECIALLY IF ONE OF
THOSE VOICES IS A GIRL.
THAT'S RIGHT.
ONE OF THE VOICES
IN MY HEAD
IS A GIRL.
YOU KNOW HOW MANY TIMES
A DAY I HIT ON MYSELF?
SO MUCH BETTER.
HEY, CAN I ASK YOU
SOMETHING?
-WHY ARE YOU WORKING
SO HARD AT THIS?
I KNOW TOURING COMICS
THAT DON'T PUT IN
THIS MUCH TIME.
MY MOM WANTS
TO COME SEE ME.
I WANT...
TRINA TO SEE ME
TELL JOKES.
WE'VE BEEN THROUGH
A LOT.
JUST WANT HER TO BE
PROUD OF ME AGAIN.
LET'S GET YOU

-LET'S GE THIS PUT AWAY.
-OKAY.
THANKS FOR
LISTENING TODAY.
HEY,

HOW LONG YOU BEEN
HAVING EPISODES?
ABOUT A YEAR NOW.
I WAS GETTING GOOD GRADES
UP AT CAL POLY
WHEN... I STARTED
SEEING GHOSTS.
REALLY FUCKED ME UP.
WE DON'T HAVE TO TALK
ABOUT THIS.
NO, I NEED TO
TALK ABOUT IT.
-OKAY.
-WHEN IT HAPPENED,
I'D...
SHAKE SO HARD...
THAT MY FRIENDS WOULD CALL ME
"POLAROID PICTURE."
LIKE IN THA OUTKAST SONG?
'CAUSE I'D DO THIS.
PISS IN MY PANTS, TOO.
NEVER TOLD ANYBODY THAT.
THAT'S FUCKED UP.
I'M SORRY, MAN.
-I KNOW, YOU JUS MET ME, MAN.

WHAT, ARE YOU GONNA
LEAVE ME OVER THAT, TOO?
PLEASE DON'T TALK
LIKE THAT.
WELL, IF YOU WERE HERE MORE
OFTEN I WOULDN'T HAVE TO.
JESUS, I'M HERE

-WHOA, WHOA!

GOING WITH THE GROUP?
YOU KNOW,
THEY'VE GROWN ON ME.
WELL, NOW YOU'VE GO A FEEL FOR THE PLACE,
I WANT TO TELL YOU MY PLANS
ABOUT YOUR WORKSHOP.
STAND-UP COMEDY
IS LIKE PUBLIC SPEAKING.
I WANT YOUR STUDENTS
TO FINISH YOUR CLASS
WITH A SPEECH ENTITLED,
"WHO AM I?"
-SOUNDS EXCITING.
-NO, NO, I'M SERIOUS.
COMEDY CAN BUILD CONFIDENCE,
DON'T YOU THINK?
YES, IT JUST...
SOUNDS A LITTLE ACADEMIC.
REPEAT AFTER ME--
WHO AM I?
WHO AM I?
WHO AM I?
WHO AM I?
WHO AM I?
"WHO AM I?"
IT'S NOT A REQUEST,
BUDDY.
I DO NOT GE THIS GUY.
"
-THAT'S LAME.
AGREED.

WHO WE ARE.
A BUNCH OF
ANXIETY-RIDDEN CRAZIES.
HEY, GUYS, COME ON.

I ACTUALLY
GOT QUARANTINED.
THE ONLY THING
THAT GOT ME THROUGH
WAS THERE WAS THIS BRITISH
SOLDIER NAMED WINSTON.
HE WAS PARALYZED AND HE WAS
DYING FROM A SHRAPNEL INJURY.
I THOUGHT THIS
WAS SUPPOSED TO BE
A FUNNY STORY.
ZOE, QUIET.
ANYWAY, HE NEVER LOS HIS SENSE OF HUMOR.
HE'D WAKE UP EVERY
MORNING AND HE'D GO,
YOU KNOW, ELLIOT?

WHEN I WAS A KID,
I WAS AFRAID OF EVERYTHING--
ROLLER COASTERS,

I DIDN'T BRUSH MY TEETH
IN FRONT OF THE BATHROOM MIRROR
UNTIL I WAS 23.
I MEAN, I WAS AFRAID

YOU'RE SO UGLY THA WHEN YOU WERE BORN,
YOUR MAMA NAMED YOU
"SHIT HAPPENS."
-NO!

I DIDN'T MEAN IT.
-I LOVE YOU.

I'M PROUD OF YOU, RIGHT?
I CAN'T WAIT.
HI THERE, HI THERE.
I AM TYSON YEE.
YOU KNOW ME AS
THE HEAD COUNSELOR HERE,
AND I WILL BE
YOUR HOST TONIGHT.
OH, WELCOME TO MAPLE HILL'S
BIG SHOW!
NO PRESSURE.
UP FIRST, WE HAVE ZOE.
UH, I'M NOT VERY
GOOD AT JOKES,
BUT HERE GOES.
WHEN I WAS LITTLE,
I WANTED TO BE A DOCTOR.
NOW I NEED A DOCTOR.
SOMETIMES WHEN I
TELL PEOPLE
I DID DEMOLITIONS
IN THE MILITARY
THEY'RE LIKE,
"WOW, WAS IT FUN?"
AND I'M LIKE,
"FUN?
I DEFUSED BOMBS ALL DAY.
THE LAST THING I WANT TO BE
DOING IS HAVING A BLAST."
I HAVE EXTREME ANXIETY.
SO I'M A LITTLE NERVOUS
IN FRONT OF A CROWD.
BUT I'M EVEN MORE
NERVOUS IN FRONT OF
THESE CROOKED LIGHTS.
FIRST JOKE, PERSONAL.
MY EX-HUSBAND BEAT ME
AND MY DAUGHTER.
PAIN.
IT HURTS.
SECOND JOKE, PERSONAL.
I HATE MY EX-HUSBAND.
PAIN.
I BURNED DOWN HIS HOUSE.
UP NEXT, WE HAVE OUR VERY OWN
BUFORD "BUGG" JACKSON.
YOU GOT THIS.
I-- I'M BUGG.
-I'M SORRY, SORRY. SORRY.
HEY.
DON'T APOLOGIZE.
JUST GE YOUR FIRST JOKE OFF.
IT'S OKAY.
I INVITED HIM.
I USED TO BE ASHAMED
OF BEING DIFFERENT.
BUT NOW I'M NOT.
I HAVE TWO VOICES
IN MY HEAD.
ANY MORE AND WE'D BE
A WALKING GANG.
ONE IS THE MOS INTIMIDATING BLACK DUDE
THAT YOU'LL EVER MEE IN YOUR LIFE,
AND THE OTHER IS A 70-YEAR-OLD
CHURCH WHITE LADY.
SO I'M PRETTY MUCH COVERED
FOR ANY SITUATION
THAT YOU CAN
POSSIBLY THINK OF.
IF SOMEBODY CUTS ME OFF
IN TRAFFIC,
THE BLACK DUDE
IS LIKE, "HEY, HEY, HEY!
FORGET YOU, MAN!
OL' JIVE TURKEY.
YOU SEE THIS BICYCLE."
AND IF I'M EVER
GROCERY SHOPPING,
THE WHITE CHURCH LADY PRETTY
MUCH HAS ME COVERED WITH,
"EXCUSE ME, SIR.
I KNOW YOU'RE BLIND, SO YOU
PROBABLY DIDN'T SEE THE LINE,
BUT IT STARTS BEHIND ME.
THANK YOU.
GOTTA GET THIS WINE
TO CHURCH COMMUNION."
THANK YOU.
YOU WANT TO DO
A SET?
OH, NO, NO.
I'M GOOD, THANKS.
COME ON.
WHO AM I?
WHAT'S HE DOING?
OUR ASSIGNMENT, DUMMY.
I'M BUDDY SOLITAIRE.
I'M HANNA BALES'S SON.
MY MOTHER WAS MY HERO
GROWING UP.
I PROBABLY WATCHED
HER "LETTERMAN" SE THOUSANDS OF TIMES.
WHICH IS ABOU HOW MANY TIMES THIS WEEK
SHE'S CALLED ME
"A COMPLETE PIECE OF SHIT."
THE PHYSICAL ABUSE
WAS BAD.
SHE WAS EITHER
HITTING ME TOO HARD
OR HUGGING ME TOO CLOSE.
WE'RE KIND OF LIKE
NORMA AND NORMAN BATES
FROM "PSYCHO"...
EXCEPT WE NEVER HAD
A FUNCTIONING SHOWER.
SHE'S MY MOM.
THE ONLY FAMILY I GOT.
SO WHATEVER I FEEL
FOR HER,
I REALIZE I GOTTA LE A LOT OF THAT SHIT GO,
BECAUSE IF I DON' I'M NOT GONNA MAKE ANY ROOM
IN THE FUTURE
TO MEET--
TO MEET NEW PEOPLE.
AND THAT HAS BEEN
AWESOME, GUYS.
I TRULY MEAN THIS.
THANK YOU.
THANK YOU SO MUCH.
IT'S SO NICE, SO--
EXCUSE ME, SORRY.
VANESSA, PLEASE.
TALK TO ME.
THAT WAS GREAT.
YOU SHOULD BE PROUD.
THAT MEANS A LOT.
BUDDY, WE DON'T WORK.
-WE JUST DON'T.
-THAT'S NOT TRUE.
WE CAN'T FIX EACH OTHER.
I HAVE TO DO IT MYSELF.
OKAY?
OKAY.
I LOVE YOU.
I LOVE YOU, TOO.
GOODBYE.
OKAY.
