Kid Action-”The Long Walk Home”

Zack: Surprise! I was your secret Santa!

Max: Your Jewish. You don't celebrate Christmas.

Zack: Its the THOUGHT. Now here.

He hands Max a present. They roll their eyes and unwrap it

Max: Whatever. This is still a dumb holid-

They then see it's a photo in a picture frame...of them, Emily and their parents on Christmas.

Zack: I asked Em if she had any old pics of you and your folks. I know that no matter what you celebrate....families important. And you lost yours a long time ago. Merry Christmas Max.

Max: ...

Emily: Max? You okay?

Max: ...This...is acceptable. I guess.

Emily: Aw, (To Zach) That means they love it.

Max: So, you hate ALMONDS but you'll eat candy bars filled with COCONUT?

Coconut's good.

The fuck it is!

You're just saying that because you're a picky eater. They've always have been.

Would YOU willingly eat it?

...It IS a little weird that you prefer that over almonds, Bruce.

Jess: Please don't do that. I DON'T need a hug.

Max; I don't know. Even I kind of feel like your life before us sounded like shit. Especially since you clam up so much about it...

Like, every time someone asks something about your past, you always give a thousand mile long stare and eventually respond with a short answer. Sometimes barely a sentence.

And while it definitely seems like something you should go to therapy for...a hug is at least free for now.

...I'll take the shortest hug you can manage.

A two-minute hug it is!

Two minutes?!

Yeah, I'm a hugger. HUG!

Ugh....This actually does feel nice.

Max: You know they make vegan cheese pizzas right? Like, just get a weird cashew cheese pizza or whatever.

Annie:...That's a thing?

Max: I mean, it probably tastes like ass, but yeah.

...Well, there's only one way to find out! COMMENCE COOKING MONTAGE!

Is that kind of thing allowed? Because I wouldn't do that if it's not okay...

Everyone does it. I think the people who run the place even expect kids to do that.

...You detest violence in every conceivable way, yet you're totally fine with torture porn like the Saw movies?

It's easier to digest when knowing everything is fake. And it's not torture porn. It's a thrilling soap opera of people trying to prove their good with some great special effects that try not to rely on CGI.

WHAT ARE YOU?!

An enjoyer of film...So is that a NO on watching them together or...?

...Yeah, why the hell not. We can watch them.
