I can't believe I'm going on my first L.A date.
I know. If this is the hiker, you work pretty fast.
Right. Well, are you going to tell him about that?
I mean, am I supposed to? I don't know.
Oh, okay. Let's play it out. I'll be Joe. What would you say to me?
No! No! How could you betray me?!
Macy, he's not gonna do that.
Well, I was just showing you the worst-case scenario.
Okay. Well, can we please try the best-case scenario?
Okay. So, Joe, I met this guy and we're gonna go on a date.
Oh, that's great. Have fun. I never had feelings for you anyway.
That's the best-case scenario?
Oh, wait. Here's 50 bucks. Take him someplace classy. Huh? Huh? Wasn't that helpful? Wait. Wait! (Stella is walking away and Macy follows her)
Whose dog is this? Hi, baby.
This is Chakra. He belongs to Vanessa.
Oh, we belong to each other.
Oh, no. I'm actually playing a ghost in "Forever April," so I can't be in the sun. I tan ubereasy.
(clicks tongue, sighs) Joe is such a sweetheart, agreeing to dogsit Chakra for me.
Wow. So you're dogsitting....
Well, I'm spending the weekend In an underground spa, so--
Oh, let me guess-- uberexclusive?
Oh no, it's literally underground... in a cave.
Um, I actually just came to say hi. And now I'm going So, Joe, happy dogsitting. Vanessa, watch out for bats.
It depends what part of me gets cold first. What about you?
Doesn't your cat have fur?
(baby voice) But it goes so well with his little hat.
He's taking care of Vanessa's dog.
Yeah, he is. I mean, I don't know how they got so far so fast. Usually you meet, you flirt, you date, you introduce him to your parents And then maybe you let him dogsit.
Well, he has clearly moved on and so should you.
Oh, I am moving, baby, And Ben is my moving van.
Yes, ladies, this date with Ben is going down. - I am talking frozen yogurt...
With toppings. (Aunt Lisa gasps) - Maybe a swirl.
- Now that is the Stella who came to play in L.A. - Hippy bump. (squeals)
I'm good. I'm getting ready.
- Oh, hey, Nick. Meet China's gold medalist in table tennis world cup.
And you, sir, bought a ball machine.
Just say it. You're afraid to lose to your little brother.
"Lose"? Oh, no. I just want to make sure you were properly schooled - When I beat you.
That's cute and all, but can you leave now? 'Cause she's about to teach me a move she likes to call the Cobra Chop. Chop.
Now remember he only drinks bottled water, No carbs after 4:00 P.M. And no loud noises. - His ears are very sensitive.
(whispers) I think we'll be fine.
- I'll call you when I get there.
Right.(Vanessa kisses her dog) Yeah, I knew that.
(Joe chuckles) And one for you. (she kisses Joe before she leaves)
Bye. I know where you can sleep. You can sleep in Nick's bed. (laughs) Yes, you can. Come on.
- Oh, hey, can I help you?
Yeah, I'm looking for a Stella.
- Ben. I met Stella hiking today And I found her keys on the trail. At least I think they're hers.
- Yeah, those are Stella's.
- Do you know if she's around? If not, I'll just see her tonight.
So what you're telling me is your name is Ben - And you have a date with Stella.
I think we have a lot we could talk about. Why don't you come on in?
Well, I know some words have been exchanged, some not so pleasant, so I decided to do something nice for you.
Well, I know how much you like relaxing.
I do like to take a load off.
All right. Well, try it out. Take this coconut smoothie, lay down on this thing - And just relax.
- Don't mind if I do. (sits on the hammock)
Oh, I almost forgot-- ladies.
Ah. Like a cool island breeze. It's very relaxing. Wait a second! - I know what you're trying to do here.
You're trying to recreate that sweet sweet nap I took in Maui.
Ah. The nap of all naps. The nap of your dreams. Now why would I do that?
To make me groggy for the match. You're trying to make me lose my competitive edge.
It would be nice. I mean-- No! Not at all! Absolutely not. - Not gonna work.
- All right, fine. But I know how cranky you get without your nap.
You're going down a bad road here, brother. You'll be sorry you messed with the master. No one said stop.
Ah. Here you go, my buddy Ben.
Thanks. So is Stella home?
I want to talk about Ben. What gets Ben up every morning?
So what I'm hearing is you're unemployed.
- No, I work part time too.
I invented a cell-phone app. It's kind of popular.
Well, I'm pretty cell-phone-app savvy myself. So what's it called?
It's called the side burner. - It lets you take any photo
and-- - put sideburns on it? Dude, I love that app. You invented that?
Yeah, it's no big deal It pays the rent, got my parents a new house. It's all good. So what do you do?
- Where are they? (ball clacking)
- Where are what? - Can you be more specific?
- Specifically my lucky sneakers.
The white ones with the blue stripes? I haven't seen 'em.
Oh, now you're resorting to name-calling.
- I know what you're trying to do.
You think I'm so superstitious - I need those shoes to win.
- Those are your words, not mine.
- You're not getting inside my head.
You know what? I could beat you without shoes. I could beat you without socks. I could beat you without feet! Kevin!
You know what? I ask the questions around here. So where are you taking Stella tonight? (Macy is spying)
- Um, to get frozen yogurt.
- What do you have against ice cream?
So as determined by the pre-game flip of a coin, The Kevinator will serve first. By the way, I'm no longer saying "amente." I'm now saying "inator."
The cobra chop is cheating?
Look, Nick. If you can't handle my level of play, you should quit now, - Just like you did third-grade Spanish.
I couldn't roll my Rs because my tongue wasn't fully formed yet.
- Always an excuse with this guy.
You know what? - Just serve the ball, Kevin Percy.
- Don't you use my middle name.
- Oh, I think I just did, Percy. (Dennis gives Kevin the ball)
- Whoo! Nice. Intensamente.
Code red. Code red. (enters the guest house)
Actually, this is crimson crush.
No. Joe, Ben, here together.
Joe is grilling Ben like a shish kebab. - You've gotta get in there.
- Right. Wait. - What about my toes?
So what you're telling me, ben-- If that's your real name-- Is that you're gonna take stella out to "fro-yo," and if it goes well, you might ask her out again?
- Stella. - Don't talk to her.
No, we are talking. We're talking up a storm.
Oh, and you brought them here. Thank you. That is-- that's so sweet. Thank you. Thanks. You-- game room, now.
- Look. If tonight's not gonna work--
- Oh no, it's perfect. It's perfect.
You ate baby food until you were 10.
It was just the applesauce.
Oh! Point to the Nickinator! Whew. Guys, this is getting personal.
How dare you interrogate my date!
What am I supposed to do, Seeing as you decided to keep the whole thing from me?
I tried to tell you, but you were a little too busy... Playing house with Vanessa and Shakira.
It's Chakra, and he's a boy. (Chakra is barking) The point is you had a date tonight - And you didn't tell me.
- Well, you didn't tell me about the dogsitting.
I didn't tell you about my dentist appointment either.
Vanessa is trusting you with something that she loves. That's a big step in a relationship.
We're not in a relationship.
Well, she thinks that you are.
Yet you're the one who has a date tonight.
It's just yogurt! (barking continues)
Chakra! Chakra! No, Chakra! Come back! Chakra!
So it all comes down to this: The winner of the next point will take the crown, And moi, to meet Justin Timberlake. (Nick takes the ball out of the hat) (dramatic music playing) (Chakra barks and swallows the ball) (Dennis gasps)
That was our last ball. - When did we get a dog?
Chakra! - Heel! - Stay! Stay! - Chakra, come back! - Chakra, come on! Don't run! (Dennis runs after Chakra)
Our dog's name is Chakra?
- It's not our dog. I'm watching him for Vanessa. He got scared when Stella and I were arguing.
- She has a date tonight - And she didn't tell me.
- Didn't you guys decide to be friends? Doesn't that mean you're free to date whoever you want?
Yeah, but I just pictured myself dating and Stella just... not.
You do realize how it sounds, right?
When I just said it, I realized what a jerk I sounded like.
Yeah, well, you shouldn't tell us. You should tell her.
(panting) Okay. Come on, boy.
You're right. Thanks. (leaves)
Yo, bros. Ah. It's game point. (gives the ball that Chakra swallowed to Kevin)
Yeah, that's gonna be a problem.
Maybe it's for the best. This game was getting pretty ugly.
Yeah, there's no such thing as a friendly game of ping-pong. (fistbumps Nick)
Hey, guys, hold on. We're real close-- one more point.
Guys, wait. I don't want to have to come down on you. All right, look. I promised my guy a JONAS and I don't front. Okay? So you guys have
Or our friendship is in serious trouble.
Our friendship will be fine. Trust me.
Listen. I was way out of line back there. I'm sorry.
It's okay. I may have slightly overreacted to that whole dog thing.
We should be able to date whoever we want without the other one of us freaking out about it.
Or if you prefer not to date at all, I'm cool with that too.
- Okay, the first one. Listen, Ben's a really nice guy. You should have fun tonight.
Just do me one favor-- Tell him what band I'm in.
Hello. - Where have you been? I've been worried sick. It's 8:00.
I've been gone for an hour.
Okay, let's put it all behind us and tell me everything.
Okay. So we got to the yogurt place--
- He opened the door for me...
And then he let me pick the music.
He cares about your interests.
Then we opened the sunroof so we could look at the stars.
- Oh, when we got to the date, - He made me something.
- What? (gasps) He sideburned you?
Yes. Oh, Joe is so cool. - I just said--
- That can't happen again.
Hm-mmm. - How about I sideburn you?
- Okay. - Let's go full-on werewolf.
We've got you covered, D.Z.
Oh, so it's you. Great, I was hoping for you. - Don't hate Kev or anything.
Kevin baby! My favorite brother!
So you guys are leaving me hanging?
We're not gonna leave you hanging. We promised you a brother, so fresh off the jet from Jersey...
Baby applesauce. Guys, it's just a lot smoother. (Nick put his head down)
So... clears throat) are you any good?
Back home they call me the Frankinator.
(chuckles) Where have you guys been hiding this kid? Let me see you do this. Yeah. Definitely. How long have you been playing?
- Here you go, man. I made you breakfast.
No problem. Feeling good? Feeling loose?
Feeling awesome. I'm going to be in a movie today.
Not just any movie! From the best-selling novel, "Forever April," Comes the major motion picture event Starring my brother Joe.
(chuckles) Dude, no sausage.
In a world with no sausage, - One man-- -
--tells his brother to stop talking like that.
Oh, yeah. Sorry. Hey, let's practice your lines.
Kevin, we've been practicing all weekend. I'm pretty solid.
Okay, then you wouldn't care if I did this-- Scene 36, interior, high school gymnasium, Your character Dade is alone. The ghost April appears. She says, "Dade, you're not safe here. - You have to go."
- I'm not going anywhere without you.
- You without anywhere going not I'm.
You are going to be a great actor.
And you are going to be a great director. Director Kevin?
- And what time do I have to be on set?
- So we should probably-- - (he and Kevin are going to leave)
