Brian Robertson, speaking with us today
about his best-selling book, "My Senior Year."
- 42!
Set, hike!
Yeah, that's me.
Not him.
Him.
That's my mom.
Well, at least at the time she was.
Are you okay?
- No sweat but,
yeah, I'm fine. - Oh my goodness!
I kept asking my dad where she went.
And he always said she would be right back.
I wanted to be like most kids
and have recess to play football with the guys.
I wanted to go biking in the summer with friends
as if we were a pack of birds with nowhere to go
but just fly 'cause we had the freedom to.
I wanted to be a part of something.
But for me,
it just seemed like a far dream from being reality.
âª Happy birthday to you âª
âª Happy birthday dear Brian âª - Whoa!
âª Happy birthday to you âª
âª A succession was the first lesson of my life âª
âª Had to walk on the darker side âª
You see, when I was nine years old,
life was, wonderful.
I had a mom, a dad, and I had friends.
âª Feel like you're falling down âª
Then, everything changed.
âª Afraid to see the outcome âª
- Hey mom, I'm home!
Hey mom!
At school today we got to...
- What?
- I'm just saying I'm gonna be in my room.
âª Because I am free, yeah âª
When my best friend Joey moved,
it was the worst day of my life.
âª To stay satisfied âª
I soon found out that
things would get much worse.
âª Then I will survive âª
- Why are you always drunk when I come home from the road?
Every time I come through that door,
I found you laying on the couch
with a bottle of liquor in your hand!
What's Brian gonna think?
- You're never home!
- How to you expect me to earn money
to support you and Brian?
I have to be out on the road driving all the time!
I never understood why my mom
and dad yelled so much.
Then,
the yelling just stopped.
Mom, please don't go!
- I'm sorry.
My mom disappeared for good.
- Please mom!
There's gotta be a way! - Supposedly,
she went on a trip.
- I'm sorry, son.
- Please!
Don't leave me!
But that trip was a one-way ticket.
It seemed like there was no return.
So then, me and dad, like everything else in our lives,
just packed up and kept on trucking.
You see, my dad wanted me and him to be very close.
This could never happen with me going to school
and his career as a semi driver.
âª 'Cause I am free âª
So after my parents split up,
my dad took some classes so he was able to be my teacher.
And from then on, I was home-schooled.
I always wondered what a real life would be like.
What if my mom and dad would have stayed together
and nothing changed from when I turned nine?
Maybe I would have a good friend or two.
And even a girlfriend.
Every day I wonder about that life I've never had.
I guess, right now, life isn't it.
âª In the dark delirious morning âª
âª Colors gain in confidence âª
âª In the quiet of the morning âª
âª Rolling towards the light âª
âª Listen to the pavement go on about the night âª
âª And it's still to early to see the sun âª
âª That old piece of fruit's still hanging on âª
âª Some tangerine tree somewhere in some orchard âª
âª On the other side of this little Earth âª
âª Well I need to make this silence stop âª
âª Yes I need to be sure âª
âª Well I need to make you understand âª
âª That I don't know where to go âª
âª Who to read or who to reference âª
âª To figure out how just to say this âª
âª Such a sure and simple sentence âª
âª La la la la la la la la la la la la la la âª
âª In the dark delirious morning âª
- What's wrong?
- We've been driving for 10 hours straight.
- Why don't you go sleep in the bunker?
- You know I'll just get a headache if I sleep on that.
- Well, it's seven o'clock now.
What do you wanna do?
- We haven't gone bowling in a while.
- Sure.
- You really need to cut down on smoking, Dad.
What are you at, a pack a day?
Hey, Tom, what's your GGH?
- 20's about an hour away from the Magic Mile.
10-4, keep the wheels spinning.
- Roger that.
After this shipment, we'll head to the alleys.
- Sounds like a plan.
âª You âª
âª And me âª
âª Dancing until-- âª
âª You âª
âª And me âª
âª Dancing in slow motion âª
âª You âª
âª And me âª
âª Here in these arms âª
âª And it's all that I want âª
âª And it's all that I need âª
âª If I could love you forever âª
All I could think about was her.
She was,
stunning.
Whatever I was working on,
my mind could not venture away from that girl.
âª You âª
âª And me âª
âª And all that we are âª
- Dad!
There's something I gotta talk to you about.
- How you owe me 10 bucks?
What do you want?
- Well,
I've been thinking.
I'm 17 now,
and I've only had two friends since second grade.
I think it's time for me to actually experience
a real teenager's life.
It's just...
Well, you went to college and high school.
I've seen the pictures.
You look like you enjoyed life.
I mean, if I go to a college,
which we're both planning on.
- Of course.
- Not only will I not know how to act around kids my age.
I won't know what to do when I meet a girl
or meet a good friend.
And I love spending time with you, don't get me wrong.
But don't you want me to enjoy my life?
- Okay.
Guess we'll have to figure out
your schedule for first quarter.
- Thanks, dad.
Yes.
- Hey, man!
- Hey!
- You look pretty lonely.
You wanna come sit with me and the guys?
We love welcoming the new kid.
- Yeah, I would love to!
- Dude, don't worry.
This isn't "Mean Girls."
Instead of the new kid being popular here,
at this school, we couldn't give a shit about you.
I'm joking, man.
My name's Jake.
- What's up?
I'm Brian.
You guys here sure like to pull each other's chain.
- First off, you're gonna have to use different slang.
- Different what?
- Different word usage!
- Oh.
Okay.
I can do that.
- You'll find out every group has their one-liner,
"That's whack!"
"That's cool!"
And the stoners are:
"Yeah, man."
"Stay high, stay fly."
- I think I can remember that.
- That's good to know.
So,
do you know anybody at this school?
- No.
This is my first day.
- Come sit by me and the guys, then.
- All right. - All right.
Guys, this is Brian.
This is Tim.
- What's going on, man?
One on the thumb, one on the elbow.
- And this is Eric.
- What up, bro-ski?
No.
So, you new here, man.
- Yeah.
This is actually my first day of regular school.
I was home-schooled by my dad.
- What?
Wait, I thought home-schoolers couldn't talk.
No.
- Don't mind Eric.
He was dropped on his head when he was a baby.
- I'm sorry.
- I'm just kidding, man.
You're gonna fit in just right with us.
âª Baby you left me âª
âª Told me that you'd never ever leave me âª
âª How the hell could you tell me that you'd leave me âª
How you doin' there, man?
- I'm good.
- Yeah, I noticed.
- What do you mean?
- Your dick's hard.
Come on, man.
Time to get in the pool.
No!
Dude, help me up!
- I don't know, man.
You have a loaded pistol down there.
All right, you got me feelin' like a jackass.
Wha!
- Nice one, Barry.
Oh, good job, new kid!
- You little bastard!
âª And where you go âª
âª I will follow âª
âª And where you drive I will tag along âª
âª And where the wind blows I will follow âª
Please, God.
Let my son be happy.
I know this is a hard time for him, but,
just let him be healthy and happy during this time.
- Boom!
- Are you kidding me, man? - What's up?
- Any way you can, please let him find a way to fit in.
I would love for him to experience a normal teenager's life.
âª The way she walks âª
âª I want to breathe her feel her âª
I ask that you keep our family strong
while Brian is on this mission.
âª And on the streets we âª
âª We could dance and âª
âª Hit this bottle âª
- In Jesus's name, amen.
âª Live life rejoicing âª
- Hey!
Guess what, man.
- What?
- My dad's gonna be gone for the whole weekend.
- Dude, are you serious?
This is your chance to get known!
- What do you mean?
- Well, man, right now your nickname is Boner.
I think you would rather have it Brian Robertson.
That's just my opinion.
- I'm listening.
- This is your chance to make some new friends and
maybe get a girl?
- Okay, you got me!
- All right, man.
I'll spread the word.
- Pshew! - Pshew!
âª Baby you left me âª
âª Told me that you'd never ever leave me âª
âª How the hell could you tell me that you'd leave me âª
- That's weird.
Are you familiar with the term motor boating?
- No.
Motor boating?
- Yeah.
- Hey, man!
Can't wait for your party, dude.
It's gonna rock.
I know it.
- Yeah, it should be a good one.
- Oh yeah!
- Wait, when is this?
- On Friday, but ...
I mean, I can't believe the word got around so fast.
I just told Jake yesterday.
- The thing about open house parties is
everybody knows about it.
All right?
You'll learn, Barry.
You'll learn.
- Oh, remember, we're out of toilet paper,
so don't forget to get some.
- Oh, yeah.
I'll get some later.
- All right.
See you on Sunday.
- Okay.
See ya.
Yo.
- It's on!
- All right, hey, guys, how's it going?
You having a good time at the party?
Yeah!
I think we have a class together.
Anyway, what's up, guys?
Oh, Lordy, what is this called?
- What's up, man?
- Oh, Dan!
- How you doin'?
- I'm good man.
- I'm doin' great.
- Beer pong right here man.
Beer pong. - Oh, beer pong.
Crazy game, man.
- I'll have to play later.
- We'll teach you later, man.
- Hey, guys.
- Hi!
- How's it goin'?
Oh!
- Titty twister!
- All right, I'll teach you how to drive
the semi next Saturday, all right?
- Looking forward to it.
- All right.
Good talk, man.
Jakester! - Hey!
What's up?
- I'm good, how you doing, man?
- Great.
- You having a good time?
- Great time.
Great time.
- That's what I like to hear, man.
She made it.
- Sara Anderson?
You're dreaming, brother.
Her and Brad have been together for years.
- Yeah?
I suppose.
- Yo, Jasmine!
What up, girl?
Take my breath away!
That's all me, man.
That's all me.
All right, man. - All right.
Jasmine!
- Do it!
Barry!
- Oh!
- Shots.
You want one?
Or two?
- I don't know, dude.
- You said you came to our school
to experience the real teenage life.
Well this is it, buddy.
This is it.
Eh?
- All right.
All right.
âª This is it âª
- All right, I'll do one? - Oh yeah!
Yup.
- All right. - That's good.
Fill it up.
Dude.
Yeah.
Shots.
You take shots in shot glasses, Barry.
Shot glasses.
- Is it supposed to burn like that?
- Uh, yeah, it burns.
- All right.
Okay, here we go.
- I'll do one more.
One more. - Let's do this.
I mean, I might as well just throw this
in the garbage if you're gonna keep
drinking out of the bottle.
You are out of control, Barry!
- That burns. - Yeah!
Is it supposed to burn?
- Oh, it burns.
- All right, I swear to God,
you two will never work in this business again!
You're my Lucky Strikes, you bitch!
- Whoa!
What is that?
- What? - Jerry Seinfeld, right?
- No, it was like a '30s film
acting like we're on the set.
- I don't get it. - Cut.
Get outta here!
- '30s? - No, that doesn't exist.
- Hey, what up guys? - Oh!
- That's right! - What's up, dude?
All right, so I got some pot, I got some ladies,
and we are gonna get laid.
All right, with the ladies.
- You're gonna get laid
- with the ladies. - I got it, I think I got it.
- Yeah, no, we all are.
What?
- Yeah, you should come with.
Yeah, yeah.
- You should do it.
- I don't know about that.
I think I'm just gonna stay here and dance it out, bitch!
- No, you're missing out, dude.
- What?
Oh, what, what?
- No, look at that.
Look at that little freshman over there.
- What?
- Yeah, yeah.
No, I gave him some Kool-Aid, and he thinks it's vodka.
That is a dude.
- Dumb ass.
- Hey, stupid. - Idiot!
What a fool, man!
You take the crown, take the crown.
- Take it, take it.
You're gonna need that.
Yeah, yeah!
What a great party. - What an idiot!
What are you talking about, Tim?
- Oh, Lisa.
Simple Lisa.
Here, let me just,
I'll just show you, how about that?
Let's say I draw a nine.
And you draw a seven.
Well, like war, the higher card wins.
Lisa, since you lost, you have three options.
You can either take a shot, remove an article of clothing,
or you can make out with the person that you lost to.
- All right.
Who's up?
- I'll play.
- All right!
Black jack for me, of course.
Am I right, am I right?
Yeah, of course I'm right. - We get it.
Yes.
And a six for you.
Ah, that sucks.
Oh!
- It's rigged.
All right.
I guess.
- All right, that's what I thought.
My man!
- I can see my work here is done.
I gotta go piss.
- Now, who wants to get nasty, huh?
Who wants to get nasty with Jake right here?
- Okay.
Bitches.
Bitches, please.
I shall return.
Just gotta,
take a piss.
Hey, guys, guys, I gotta pee.
âª Ride on the pee train âª
Am I right?
Time for papa bear to drain the main vein.
Look out below!
Oh yeah.
- Oh, oh my God!
- Only I can prevent forest fires.
Am I right, forest?
I'm looking at you.
- Tim!
- You all done, buddy?
Yeah you are.
- I'm gonna get that bastard.
Hello.
The chosen one.
Meh, I'll do the whole thing.
Since I got pee in my mouth,
I think that is a fair trade.
Blegh!
All right.
Well this will teach Tim to mess with me.
Ah, Tim, the man of the hour.
Just in time.
âª I'm on the time âª How you doing there, bud?
How you doing?
- Great. - Yeah?
- I,
took a trip to tinkle town.
You know what I'm saying? - Oh, yeah?
Oh, yeah, right all over my face.
What?
I didn't say anything.
Hey, do you want a mixed drink?
- You are damp, my friend. - I am damp.
- Moist! - Yeah, what's that small.
Oh, okay. - Yeah, that's weird.
Do you want a mixed drink?
- Yeah!
What's in it?
- All right, I've got the ultimate hard drink.
151 mixed with Everclear.
What?
- Yeah, no, you'd be the most hardcore drinker
if you could finish that.
- This isn't anything, man.
It's not anything.
- Right? - Ladies, where you going?
Watch me do this!
- Bottom's up.
- Ladies didn't even look.
- Right?
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum!
Down the hatch.
All right.
Yeah?
- Sure goes down hard.
Does it?
- Oh yeah, yeah.
- Yeah, yeah.
Well, you're the champ, bud!
- I'm the champ.
I'm the best!
A little more?
- Yeah.
- Uh-oh, what's going on?
Uh-oh!
I just popped my pants!
- Well.
That's unfortunate.
Nothing like 5 % vodka and 95 % Ex-Lax.
The perfect recipe for payback.
- Releasing the demons!
Get out of me, Satan!
This is not you!
This is not your home, sir.
Oh God.
That is refreshing.
Oh, that feels good.
No.
Barry!
No.
Oh God.
- I'm tired.
Come on Sara, let's get out of here.
- Get off me!
- Hey, man!
What do you think you're doing?
- Hey, man, she's mine!
Why don't you back off before I make you.
Come on, Sara, let's go.
- I'm not going anywhere.
- Whatever.
Stay with this faggot.
- I think I'll be fine.
Buh-bye!
Thanks a lot.
You're a life saver.
Brian, right?
Yeah.
- Or is that Boner?
- You heard about that?
- Yeah, I think the whole school heard about it.
- Yeah, I guess.
- So, you think you could give me a ride home?
- No, I drank too much already.
- Well, I only live a few blocks away.
We could walk.
- Yeah, definitely.
So let me ask you this.
What do you see in that jerk?
- Well, Brad, when we first met, was really sweet.
Then, beginning of last summer,
he really showed his true colors.
- So, why didn't you just dump him then?
- We've been daring about two years,
and our families are friends,
so I guess it just made sense in that light.
- That's ridiculous, though.
I mean, has he ever been that aggressive with you before?
- Yeah.
He's hit me in the face before.
Actually, a couple times.
I guess I felt like I wasn't worth that much.
- Hey.
If I was even fortunate enough to have you in my life,
I'd show you the true princess you really are.
- You're so sweet.
- Smooth job, Brian.
You should've kissed her.
- Brian.
What's this?
- It's,
it's--
- It's a must-ground is what it is.
- Dad!
- What?
If one of those kids drove home drunk,
got in an accident, we'd be liable!
We'd lose everything!
- Well, I'm sorry!
- You're damn right you are.
No TV, no internet, no hanging out with friends for a month!
- Dad, you can't do this!
I just started making friends!
- You should've thought of that
before you had the party, shouldn't ya?
- You know the misery you've put me in?
I mean, sure, at times it was fun driving with you
all across the damn country,
but all I really wanted was
to have a normal teenager's life!
To be able to have friends, and to play baseball,
something, you know?
You know what it's like to not have anyone to talk to
besides you or maybe Fat Joe,
the local semi driver who tells the same boring-ass stories
every god-forsaken time you talk to the guy?
I mean, that's fine if you want that life.
But after mom left, all I wanted was for her
to come back so we could have a normal family life again.
Driving for 50 hours a week for 52 weeks isn't normal!
Never having a first kiss at 17 isn't normal!
So if I want to throw a party so I can try
to make some friends to make up for the
shitty life I've had, I mean, I don't see the problem.
- You know what?
Life hasn't been anything near normal for me either, Brian.
You know what it's like to love someone
only to have 'em leave ya?
You're the greatest thing that's ever happened to me.
And son,
when your mother left, it was hard.
Hard for me to move on.
- Dad.
Don't worry, I'll always be there.
So does that mean I'm not grounded anymore.
- One month, grounded!
âª He's colored her haze that âª
âª I couldn't deny âª
âª As you weaved your way in and out of my mind âª
âª I thought I'd never âª
- Who's the guy?
Oh, Sara.
Why?
- He's nice.
He's good looking.
He's funny.
And I finally found a guy I could
actually see myself dating.
- Sara, you just broke up with Brad.
Don't you think it's a little soon?
- It's just different with him, you know?
He might not be my typical guy, but I'm okay with that.
There's just something about him.
- Think about what you're doing.
You just broke up with Brad.
- I have.
And Brad and I are through.
- I hope you're making the right decision.
- Now that sounds like a friend.
- Yeah, I finally talked to Sara, dude.
I actually walked her home after the party.
- Aw, how cute.
Did you guys hold hands?
- No, man.
I mean, she's perfect.
I just hope I get another chance to hang out with her.
- I hear you, brother.
She is cute.
- Right?
- Hey, what up, Brian?
- Oh, what's up?
- Tight party, man.
What are you doing this weekend.
- I don't know.
What's going on?
- Party at my house, man.
Hit me up.
All right.
Good shit, homey.
- Sounds good.
- Aren't you Mr. Popular?
- Well, it comes at a price.
My dad found out about the party
and we got in a huge fight.
Now I'm grounded for a month.
- Shit, dude.
And I thought we were gonna get away with it.
- Well we would have if some idiot
didn't leave liquor bottles under the couch.
Dumb ass!
- What do you all think you're doing?
- Yo, Brad.
Chill.
Sasha and I will go elsewhere.
- Nah, it's cool, man.
Ever since that new kid started putting the moves on Sara,
all I can think about is bashing that dude's head in.
- Shit, he deserves it.
- I don't get it, man.
I mean, that kid's poor.
Shit, I got a full ride to college.
Plus, I'm packing a summer sausage.
She'll find out.
Prom night.
- So what are you gonna do about the new kid, then?
- I don't know.
But I'm gonna give him a welcome he won't forget.
- Hey Brian, it's Sara.
- How did you get my number?
- I got it from Jake.
Did you not want me calling you?
- No, no, no.
I do.
- I just wanted to thank you again
for walking me home the other night.
It was really nice of you.
- Yeah, it was no problem.
Did you have fun at the party?
- Yeah.
Well, except for my ex-boyfriend
making a big scene in front of everyone.
- Ex-boyfriend?
- Yeah.
I split it off with him.
It was time.
- Sorry to hear about that.
- Are you?
- Honestly,
no.
That guy seemed like a jackass.
Any guy that hits a girl should probably be in jail.
- Yeah, you're right on that one.
- But, good news.
My dad's actually gonna be gone next weekend out of town.
I was gonna ask if--
- Are you trying to ask me out on a date, Brian Robertson?
- Sorry, I'm not real good at talking to pretty girls.
- Well, how 'bout I pick you up at three?
- Yeah, sounds great.
- Hey. - Hey.
Nice wheels.
- Thanks.
So glad you're not grounded anymore.
- I know.
Luckily my Dad isn't good with sticking to punishments.
- Well that's good.
- Yeah.
âª In the warmth âª
âª Oh it's what I needed âª
âª We battle winter til the summer is born âª
âª And the warmth âª
âª Oh you know I feel it âª
âª There's no denying how the West was won, yeah âª
- Hey, there's someone I want you to meet.
- Yeah?
Who's that?
- My Dad.
I've told him a lot about you,
and he really wants to meet you.
- What have you told him?
- Just--
- Just what?
- Just that
I think
you're beautiful and
you have a really good personality.
I mean, you have no idea
how many times I've thought about you on a shipment,
just wishing that I could talk to you.
- Really?
- Yeah.
- So how come you're not taken, Mr. Robertson?
Seemed too good to be true.
- Well, I didn't really have a normal life
until a few months ago,
so I guess you kinda lucked out.
- I guess I did.
So what does the future hold for Mr. Robertson?
- To be honest, I'd like to be a teacher.
Yeah?
- Yeah, I just like being around kids and
I just want to be able to help them.
And having the summers off wouldn't be a bad gig either, so.
But what about you?
- I want to be a singer.
When I heard my aunt perform, it was amazing.
I was blown away.
And since then, it's been my dream.
- That's really awesome.
I'd love to hear you perform sometime.
- I have a possible show next month in Colorado.
They have the top high school singer
perform there every month.
It'd be amazing if they'd want me.
Well I'm sure they will.
- I hope so.
- Hey, Susie.
It's me, Tom.
I know it's been years since I last called you, but
I wanted to let you know that Brian
finally talked me into letting him enter high school.
He's got a pretty girlfriend now.
They remind me of us when we were that age.
I miss how it used to be.
Me, you, and Brian.
Thought I'd let you know that I'm working part-time now.
Imagine that.
20 hours compared to 70.
I hope everything's going good for you.
I'd really like you to see Brian now.
He's becoming a fine young man.
Call me soon.
We really need to patch this thing up.
And if not,
just do it for Brian.
I...
- Yeah. - Yeah.
- Sara, Brad's coming this way,
and he looks like he's about to kill someone.
- Oh God.
Get out of my way!
What the hell are you doing seeing the new kid?
- Brad, settle down.
You're making a scene.
- I don't care!
- Of course you don't care!
All you care about is you!
- Do you want me to stay?
- No, I'm fine.
- Okay.
- Yeah, you better walk away, you chicken head bitch!
- See?
That's my exact point.
You're an asshole to everyone you meet!
You think the whole world revolves around you?
You might have a scholarship for football,
but I couldn't care less!
- So if I act nice,
can I have you back?
- That's the thing.
You have to act, Brian doesn't.
- So you want to leave me?
After all we've been through?
- All we've been through is bullshit, Brad.
What about our families?
- They can still be friends.
Doesn't mean I have to be forced into dating you.
- Fine!
See the new kid.
I don't care.
Both your broke asses can watch me
score touchdowns on Sunday.
Thought I told you to get out of the way!
- Hello?
- Hey, Brian, it's Brad.
- Oh.
Hey.
- So, you know, I've decided I've been an asshole
about the whole situation with Sara.
- It's all right.
I understand it must be tough.
- Oh, it sure is, buddy.
So, I think we should talk, you know,
to be civil about things.
Would tonight work to meet?
- Sure.
- You know, 'cause I've dated Sara for a few years now,
and I think I could give you some good pointers
if you want to have a long-term relationship with her.
- All right.
We can do that.
- Great.
Meet me at St. Charles church at 10 p.m.
Brian!
Oh, I forgot to mention
some of the guys were coming along.
You know Tony and Brock?
- You don't have to do this.
- You don't steal my girl from me,
especially at a party,
and not expect to pay the consequences.
- Maybe if you weren't such an asshole
she'd still be with you.
- All right, listen, Brian.
I get what I want.
Plain and simple.
I wanted the football scholarship, I got that.
I wanted a girl with a nice ass so I could pound it
for a few years, and I got that.
And now, I want you to have a black eye
so the whole school knows you don't mess with the Bradster.
âª Haven't spoken so long âª
âª Back when it was me, gran, and reaper âª
And I got that.
Let's roll, boys.
- That's what happens.
- Brian!
Oh my goodness.
I'm so sorry.
- It's okay.
Freakin' bitch didn't even throw the first punch.
And his friend blindsided me!
- Where's your dad at?
- He's doing a few shipments in the south.
- Well, hopefully that'll be enough time for it to heal.
- Yeah.
Man, that kid needs to get a taste of his own medicine.
- It's gonna do no good.
Dad is super-protective.
If he finds out, he'll probably take you out of school.
- Well, I'm gonna be 18 in about a month,
so then I'll do whatever I want to do.
I lived his life for 10 years!
It's my time now!
- What's wrong?
This was a good time in my life.
- How old are you there?
- I was eight.
You have no idea how many times I've looked at this picture.
- Why is that?
- Well,
after this,
life was hell.
After this picture was taken, my parents divorced and
I was basically stripped of my childhood.
- What's wrong?
- Did you see Brad the other day?
- Brian, I did, but it was nothing.
- So, what, you're gonna leave me for that tool?
- No!
Of course not.
- So why are you seeing him, then?
I thought you liked me.
- I do like you.
Maybe a little too much.
Honestly, it was nothing.
He came up to me in the hallway and was a complete jackass.
Don't worry.
I have no intentions on ever seeing him again.
Let's go to bed.
- Oh my God, did you fight a bear?
- Nah, I got set up by my girlfriend's ex-boyfriend.
- Oof.
You know, I could kill him if you like.
- I think I can handle him.
- All right.
So, what are you doing here?
- Well, I actually came by to see if you knew
when my dad was getting back from the South.
- Have you heard of this brand-new thing?
It's called a cellphone, Brian.
- Yeah, well, ever since that party,
me and him haven't really been that cool.
- Ah, don't worry about that, kiddo.
He loves you more than anyone I know.
In fact, if I got paid for every time he talked about you,
shit, I wouldn't work here.
- You're a dork, Steve.
- Be that as it may,
I have a very serious question for you, Brian.
Have you heard of this shirt called the slim fit?
- The one that makes you look skinnier?
- Yes, that is the one.
The good news is is that it does work as advertised.
I mean, look at me, right?
- Right.
- But with that it's like, boom!
I look buff as shit!
- You must have the ladies rolling in then, right?
- Oh, yeah!
Yeah, absolutely.
As long as that shirt stays on, we are good.
But when the shirt comes off, shit hits the fan.
I mean, girls will literally try to kill you
when the see the blubber field coming at them.
They can't move it.
One girl, she got lost in it.
But that, it's a different story for a different day.
- You're crazy, Steve.
- You know, a little birdie told me
that you have yourself a girlfriend.
- Yeah.
- Just don't fall in love.
- Why's that?
- Well, you love this girl and she doesn't love you back,
ain't nothin' worse.
And I mean nothin'.
All right.
I better get back to work.
Make 'em think I'm doing something.
- Right.
See you later, Steve.
She sang like an angel.
I knew right there this was the girl for me.
All those years staring into the stars,
wondering if I would find somebody that could make me happy,
and now I found Sara.
âª A storm can feel the canyon's breath. âª
âª The blowing dust can blind the best âª
âª And when the dust returns to stone âª
âª Remember that you're not alone âª
âª All the hopes that refuse to part âª
âª With healing hands upon your heart âª
âª When the pale moon sleeps at night âª
âª An angel falls from celestial light âª
âª She feels the tears that fall like rain âª
âª And for a moment she will lose the pain âª
âª As it becomes misunderstood âª
âª That all things evil once were good âª
âª And good things will never fall apart âª
âª With healing hands upon your heart âª
- I can't believe you brought a megaphone
to the game last night.
I feel like you'd have such a fun Dad.
- Well, trust me, I mean,
there were times when we were at each other's throats.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
- Dude, listen!
Leave Sara and me alone, or next time I'll hurt you twice--
- Hey, Brian!
You're coming with me!
- This isn't over Robertson!
- Brian!
First you're throwing parties when I told you not to!
Then your grades start slipping!
Now you're getting into fights at school and making threats!
Where's my son at?
- Dad, he threw me into a locker
and was throwing a punch at me!
What do you expect, you know?
For me to shake his hand when he's a no-good piece of shit
that hits girls and that's actually hit Sara?
- He's hit Sara?
- Yeah!
That's a big reason why she dumped him!
Because he's so aggressive.
- Well, still, let the law take care of itself!
Bad people always get what they got coming to 'em!
- Well I'm not just gonna sit back
and watch a guy who's hit my girl
and who's throwing a punch in my face
and say, "Oh, geez, I think I'm gonna
"let the law work itself out."
That shit's not gonna happen!
- I'm not even gonna ground you.
You're 18 now.
Figure it out for yourself.
But if anything else happens,
I'm not gonna bail your ass out of jail.
And if you keep it up,
you can look for a new roof over your head, too!
You got that?
- Hey, man.
You look like you need to, chill out.
- Dude, I know.
My dad and I got in another fight
after he found out what happened between me and Brad.
- Man, he had it coming!
That's what I'm saying.
- Hey, man, we're about to go out for lunch.
You wanna roll with us?
- Only if it's cloudy.
'Cause if it was nice out,
I was gonna play catch with Steve.
- Oh, it definitely will be cloudy.
That's right.
- All right, I'll come with.
- Oh, let's go. - Let's go.
- Let's take my scooter.
- You want some of this shit, man?
- What is it?
- What?
Have you ever heard of Mary Jane?
- Like from Spider-man?
- Right, but this is called Marijuana, as in the drug.
- Nah, you guys, I can't smoke.
If my Dad finds out, I'll have to move.
- Our parents don't care.
That's why we went to Highville High.
- Boner.
The smokin' Boner.
- That makes sense.
- Nah.
I'm kidding with you again, man.
You gotta stop being so gullible.
- All right, well, I'll still hang out with you guys.
- No, get out of the car.
Ah!
God dude, help me, I'm starving!
Well it just so happens I've got some sweet,
sugary goodness in my pocket.
Do you?
Yeah.
It's a special brownie.
You know the one thing I regret from high school?
That I didn't run for class president.
I mean, you guys just think Tim's all about partying, but
I could've made some real changes.
Shit, shit, shit!
It's a cop!
Pull over, man!
We're already parked.
Serious?
Yeah.
Wait, somebody get me some eye drops.
Hello.
- Go, go, go, get out!
- Is there a problem, officer?
- License and...
I'm sorry, sir, are you crying?
- Yeah.
- I'm sorry, sir, are you crying.
- I'm not,
I just...
- Are you crying.
- Get emotional when I see you boys in blue doing your job.
- Protect and serve.
Right?
- Live the dream.
- Right.
License and registration.
- Okay, yup.
- Oh, here you go, here you go.
License.
- And believe this is what you're looking for, man.
- Do I look like a man?
- Dude, it's a trick question.
He's a lady cop.
- Are you a lady cop?
- What's up, man?
- Do you need a ride?
- Yeah.
Yeah, I do need a ride.
- All right, let's go.
This is great.
Are you going back to school?
- Oh, yeah.
What are you doing on the side of the road?
- Taco Bell receipt.
Really?
- I guess.
- Sir, get out of the vehicle.
Now?
- Get out of the car!
- We're on our way to school.
- School.
You're hindering our learning.
It'll be fine, it'll be fine.
- Put your hands on the vehicle.
And spread your legs.
Hands on the vehicle and spread your legs.
Getting frisked!
Ah, this is one of my...
- Stop moving. - This is not how
first dates usually go.
- What have you guys been doing in here?
- Yeah, reading books.
Goosebumps Gang, that's what they call us.
âª Real sexy lady âª
âª She's got me going crazy âª
âª And every time she goes a walking âª
âª The texts they keep on calling âª
- Clarence?
History class, right?
I mean, for real, you realize.
That's what I'm talking about, you realize.
Jackie.
Jack-uh-dee-jack.
Smack-uh, smack-uh, smack-uh-dee-smack.
San Diego, check it out!
Jackedy, South Park.
It's a great episode.
Oh my God.
I'm so thirsty.
David Letterman!
What's up, man?
Yeah!
That's how they do it so fast.
David Letterman, see you later.
- Robertson!
Oh, man.
How you doing?
I heard you're banging Sara.
- What you talking 'bout, Brad?
- Oh my god, let me give you some advice, dude.
This one time, I had her on the kitchen table
with her leg on my shoulder, and I was just like, oh!
- You look like a large wildebeest.
Oh shit I'm high.
- Dude, I still can't believe you got away from that cop!
- Yes!
- How'd you get away?
- All right, Jabs, it's kid of a crazy story.
For all of you.
But I saw the cop behind us.
And you saw it, I dipped out, you closed the door, right?
So I booked it.
I was like sa, sa, sa, sa, down the road,
and guess who picked me up.
Jonesy, from history class.
Jonesy picked me up, brought me back to school.
- Always there, always there, yup.
Picks me up!
He brought me back to school and everything.
What was he even doing there?
- I don't know.
Who drives around like that? - That's crazy man.
I completely made it out.
Too bad for Tim though.
- Yeah, Tim, fuck man, no, he's in jail.
- Well, I think we gotta head out.
- Me too man.
It's been fun, you guys have a good time.
You guys have a good night all right?
- Have a good night.
It was nice chatting.
See ya later Jabs.
All right man.
- Can we talk?
- Yeah.
- Just, things are getting serious
and I think we've gotten to that stage in our relationship,
I just wanna know where things are going.
- What's up?
- Just freaking out with college approaching.
- College isn't gonna break us up.
- I'm just glad we both got accepted to U.
- Don't worry, we're gonna be fine.
Trust me.
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
Dad?
Dad, stop kidding around.
Dad!
No, no, Dad.
Dad, Dad no!
No Dad!
No!
Dad no!
I love you so much Dad.
I love you so much.
Dad, I can't do this alone!
Dad, please!
Please come back Dad, please come back!
Dad!
âª Oh please forgive me now âª
âª There ain't a thing left of this town âª
âª And there was never time âª
- Does it hurt when you shave?
- Oh, every once in a while maybe.
You wanna give her a try?
- Sure. âª And I reside in you âª
- Prime your face here.
- You got some in my nose.
- Just a little bit.
Razor down, curve of your face.
Go here and come on down.
âª I felt your leather coat âª
âª Seeing you closed eyed âª
âª A knot in my throat âª
âª Such a helpless feeling âª
âª When you've got no cards to play âª
âª Well this can't be âª
âª All that there is âª
âª There's a silence I can't forget âª
âª But with a faint smile, a tip of your cap âª
âª You said it's all right now âª
âª Well it could rain down sheets in the dark âª
âª But I will never let you drown âª
âª And I know âª
âª I âª
âª Know âª
âª Tried to make the best âª
âª Where you've gone there's no âª
âª Pain in your chest âª
âª But 25 years âª
âª Well it was not long enough âª
âª If it were up to me âª
âª You'll be there on the day I got married âª
âª Watch your grandchildren run âª
âª Circles around the yard âª
âª Well this can't be âª
âª All that there is âª
âª Well there's a silence I can't forget âª
âª With a faint smile, a tip of your cap âª
âª You said it's all right now âª
âª And it could rain down sheets in the dark âª
âª But I would never let you drown âª
âª And I know âª
âª I know âª
- How has my life gotten to this point?
I didn't tell Sara.
And I didn't tell my friends.
And,
I stopped going to school.
Hello.
- Brian.
Why haven't you answered any of my calls?
- I don't wanna talk about it.
- Well I'm your girlfriend.
I think I'm entitled to that.
- I'll tell you about it later.
- Okay.
Hey,
Jake and Ashley are coming over to my house
to watch a movie,
you wanna come over?
- I'm okay.
- Please, babe.
I really wanna see you.
- Okay.
Yeah, I'll be over in an hour.
- Okay.
See ya.
- Bye.
- So, what movie do you guys wanna watch?
- Let me see.
I don't really care.
What are you in the mood for Jake?
- Porno.
- At least he's honest.
- This looks pretty good.
Is everything all right Brian?
- Yeah, I'm fine.
I love you so much Dad!
I love you so much!
- What was that all about?
- He's dead.
- What?
Who's dead?
- My Dad.
- What?
- I always told him to stop smoking
and to eat right.
The last time...
I mean I was all that he had
and the last time I ever saw him
we got in a big fight.
Screw off!
I should've stayed the course with how
we were living our lives.
I was all that my Dad had!
And I abandoned him for a freaking bitch.
- Brian!
- I wish I would've never met you.
I'm sorry.
I just can't look at you right now.
- Brian.
Brian.
- Fuck off!
Don't call me anymore, we're through.
- Brian, stop!
âª I imagine you âª
âª Singing a song âª
âª One that I play along to in my head âª
âª I imagine you âª
âª Holding me close âª
- Brian, you really messed it up!
Damn it!
âª Have your pictures âª
âª And sweaters âª
âª Letters of words âª
âª Still I'd rather be âª
- Brian, what the hell are you doing here?
- I couldn't sleep.
- Brian, you broke her heart.
I want her as far away as possible from you.
It's okay.
- Okay.
If he's causing any troubles let me know
and I'll wake up Dad okay.
- I'll be fine.
Brian, why are you here?
- For you.
- You broke my heart.
- Just, hear me out.
It's all I'm asking you for.
- I'm really tired, can't this wait?
- No, it can't.
Just, I have to tell you now.
Or else, what do I have to live for?
- Don't say that.
I'm sorry, I'm just too hurt.
- Every time I think about you, I smile.
The sound of your voice makes my day.
I mean, I feel like the biggest idiot
in the world for what I said.
Sara, before I met you,
I didn't know what true happiness was.
And after what I did,
I never felt my heart hurt so much.
Words can't even describe.
Without you, my life is meaningless.
- I'm sorry Brian.
It's over.
âª Take your time âª
âª Find your meaning âª
âª I showed up âª
âª When you were bleeding âª
âª And I want âª
- I'll be joining you soon Dad.
âª Then there was left to give âª
âª Find your light âª
âª Reclaim the feeling âª
âª Like a child âª
âª When they're dreaming âª
âª And I hope you know âª
âª I'll be your biggest fan âª
âª We have to learn to let go âª
âª In the end âª
âª Acknowledge somewhere âª
âª There's a better man âª
âª I thought of you âª
âª On this evening âª
- Brian, where are you? âª Sometimes we âª
âª Just start spinning âª
- This is my one spot I come to
to kinda just
get rid of everything you know,
when everything's going wrong.
I kinda just come out here
and let all my problems go.
âª But we have to learn âª - Brian.
âª To let go in the end âª
âª Acknowledge that âª
âª We cannot just be friends âª
âª In my memory where you wait âª
âª Hair is perfect and I ache âª
âª To brush your lips just one last time âª
âª And my conscience is to blame âª
âª For letting me hold on to my pride âª
âª In a thing, that's where I'll stay âª
âª In a truck on Christmas day âª
âª When you said you knew âª
âª You wanted to be mine âª
âª And I'm sure that I was right âª
âª When I suggested you take time âª
âª Before you left two weeks in the night âª
âª 33rd Avenue South âª
âª On the day I kissed the pain straight âª
âª Out of your mouth âª
âª And it's one that I carry âª
âª Til the day I get you out âª
âª Of my mind âª
- Dad?
- What are you doing boy?
- Dad, it's all my fault for your death.
- No, don't say that for a second.
When it's your time, it's your time.
I taught you to be a strong young man son.
- I just, I just don't know what to do.
I feel like there's no hope.
- Son, don't blame yourself for what happened to me.
I didn't take care of myself as well as I should've.
Remember son,
I love you.
And if you ever need to talk, I'm right here.
Now, promise me,
promise me that you'll make me proud?
Everything's gonna turn out fine.
Just let the light in son.
Just let the words light in.
- Dad!
Don't leave, I need you!
- Brian, what the hell are you doing?
- I thought my life was over.
- Don't say that.
- How did you know I was here?
- I saw the note that you left at your house.
I knew you'd be here.
Thank God I got here in time.
- Yeah.
- I need to tell you something.
I keep thinking about what you said and,
the truth is Brian,
what you did, is messed up.
But I forgive you.
And I know after what you went through,
it must've torn you apart.
But I think we can get through this.
- You really mean it?
Of course I do.
I love you.
- I love you too.
âª I imagine you âª
âª Spinning yours âª
- You guys come over we can do pigs in a blanket.
Absolutely, pigs in a blanket.
âª I imagine you âª
âª Singing a song âª
âª One that I play along to âª
âª In my head âª
âª I imagine you âª
âª Holding me close âª
90 % of how you live the rest of your life,
is off the 10 % of failures and successes.
The important thing is not getting knocked down.
It's how to get back up.
In life, we will cry, and we will die.
But the important thing,
is how you try to make this world better.
How to treat people with respect.
How to not take things for granted.
âª She walked away âª
And to tell the people you love the most
three words after every conversation.
I love you.
I hit rock bottom,
and I realize that in life,
there's always a way to find happiness.
There's always a way to live on,
find a hobby, join a church group,
find God.
Love the ones that matter
and forget the ones that don't.
Through this journey, that was "My Senior Year."
I've had my ups and I've had my downs,
but through it all, I stood tall.
âª She walked away âª
âª She walked away from me âª
âª Yeah ah âª
âª Whatever you hide inside yourself âª
âª Still can be seen by the sun âª

âª To be reminded âª
