$50 in the *** bag jar?
Yes, absolutely.
I feel like it should actually be
more in the 100, 200 range, so that's a discount.
Think about what you did, Schmidt.
I lost it.
I lost the party bus.
The party bus for your birthday party?
Yeah.
Apparently,
my business isn't as important
as Frankie Muniz's.
They canceled my rez.
There's nothing I can do; the party's off.
You should torch them
on Yelp.
Actually, I can do it.
I have an account under the name Fantastic Jacques.
He's a French diplomat
with very little patience.
Or you could just get another bus.
In two days?
(scoffs) Okay, yeah, sure, Winston.
W-Why don't I just go down to the party bus store,
where all the party buses have a state-of-the-art sound system,
a stripper pole, a love grotto,
and a steering wheel in the shape of a ***.
You honk the ***.
It's pretty awesome.
Just have the party at a bar.
Nick, this is it.
This is my 29th birthday party.
This is the year. After this,
I don't know, it's just... just all darkness.
Was he crying a little?

(door closes)
Hey, I just came to make sure you're okay.
(sighs)
I'm not okay, Jess.
I had to cancel my birthday party.
It's social suicide.
I can feel my it factor going away.
And then what am I gonna tell Benjamin?
Why are you so worried about Benjamin?
He's your friend.
We have a very weird, girl-style friendship
where we kind of hate each other.
We're bronemies.
He's my fremesis.
I'm so confused right now.
Okay, look, Benjamin and I-- we were suitemates in college.
Benjamin, I can't wait to get to L.A.
We're going to have so much sex--
in the morning,
in the afternoon,
at bedtime.
Mmm, peanuts.
I'm telling you, man, I'm gonna run that town
one day-- You'll see.
I'm gonna write you a check
right now for $100 million.
How do you like that?
Damn, dude.
And this is a real check.
You can cash it when I'm rich and awesome.
Give me about four years.

(both laughing)
If it wasn't for Benjamin, I, I never would have become
a Los Angeles baller.
Holla.
I changed everything about myself, Jess.
I lost all the weight, I changed my clothes,
I even dropped my voice half an octave,
but it wasn't enough.
I guess I'll just never be cool enough, Jess.
Okay, I've got it.
No.
Yes, 'cause it's his 29th birthday
and we care.
Jess, Schmidt's world is different than ours.
They speak a different language.
They shorten every word to one syllable.
Okay, he once called an oven an "ovs."
He called ketchup "ketch."
Last month he went to a party called
Bros before Hos on the Moon.
What does that even mean?
And the dress code was "yacht flair."
Schmidt has a friend
who legally changed his middle name to Doin' It.
Just one word: Doinit.
You are not emotionally, mentally,
and spiritually prepared to throw these d-bags a party.
I'm gonna do some research.
Actually, I'm sorry, I do have to go.
Where are you going?
And why are you wearing your jury duty pants?
I'm not, man, I'm just-- mumble, mumble, mumble.
JULIA: Come on, lawyer party...
the classic fifth date.
What are you talking about?
I'm not gonna apologize for it.
I got nothing to apologize for.
No, I'm having a really fun time.
I love wearing a Bill Cosby sweater
in front of a bunch of lawyers who are younger than me.
(à la Cosby): Hello, I'm Bill Cosby, do you like pudding?
My son's name is Theo and his best friend is Cockroach.
That supposed to be Bill Cosby?
(normal voice): That's as good as I can do.
Would you like to hear
Yes.
(à la Cosby): I want to get some more pudding.
That's the worst Bill Co... How about this?
(à la Cosby): I got a daughter named Rudy Huxtable,
and she's the cutest of all my daughters.
(normal voice): I'm really glad that you're here with me.
(normal voice): Yeah, I'm happy you let me be here with you.
No, I really am because
I got to, like, kiss all the ***
of these 24-year- old law students
to try to get 'em to work here.
I went to law school.
Yes.
Quit law school-- why?
Because I realized I hated lawyers.
He says to the lawyer.
And for some reason I find you
ridiculously attractive for saying that.
Why don't you kiss my ***, then?
Look, Julia, I got turned around.
I thought we were doing a flirty back-and-forth...
I'm actually just kidding.
I really do want to do that.
Oh, you would?
Well, we can make that happen.
Let's go.
Let's go to your place.
Want to go to your place?
Do you mind?
Are you married or what?
No, no, no, n-no, no, no, n-no, I'm not married.
I am the opposite of married.
Before you, there was like, there was like nothing.
I've got, like, no girls on the horizon.
In a hot way.
Why don't you ever invite me to your place
or, like, tell me all that much about yourself?
It's weird-- I don't even know where you live.
I'm 30 years old,
and I live in a loft with three roommates.
In a hot way.
(à la Cosby): But maybe you can kiss my butt when I talk like Bill Cosby.
All right, let's go.
Uh-huh.
(laughs)
Hi, yes, I'd like to order a last-minute stripper.
Oh, um, preferably of Asian heritage,
very bendy, with a heart of gold
and a crotch of gold.
Mm-hmm, yeah, I'll hold.
Oh.
We're just saying hi.
Nice to meet you guys.
Welcome to our home. Hold on one second.
We're doing
a surprise party for Schmidt.
Oh, I didn't tell you
That's our other roommate.
You know what? You should come.
Cool, yeah.
You should stay as far from that party as possible.
Is it like a presents thing
or more like a donations to charity situation?
Just bring yourself.
Do you want to head to my room for a little bit?
Give you the rest of the tour around the place.
Bye.
NICK: Bye.
Hold on one second.
Hey, Winston, why'd you do that?
Are you hiding her from us?
Like, are you ashamed of your friends?
100%, and you're not my friend right now.
You're my enemy, Winston, my enemy.
Give me a kiss, give me a kiss.
No, that's the problem.
Thank you, Ms. Phatbooty, you're the best.
(chuckles)
Yes, I just hired my first stripper.
Anything else I should get?
Do you like jazz cigarettes?
Hi, Tanya.
Patti told me that...
Patti told you to break in my office to look for drugs?
(laughs)
Hey, JK kidding, JK kidding.
You can do whatever you want.
I didn't know you liked to shop
at the Confiscation Station.
So what are you looking for-- grass?
'Cause I can do a locker search on Monday.
Monday's too late because...
Oh, so what do you got cooking this weekend, huh?
You have to tell me; I'm your boss.
What is it, a list thing, Paperless Post?
I'm free Friday,
but I can also make Saturday or Sunday work.
Jess, what are you doing?
I'm making an egg yellows omelet.
The shallots and gouda are going to congeal.
I can't-- what is this?
ALL: Happy birthday!
It's a party bus.
I'm so excited.
Whoa, Jess, you really did all this for me?
Okay, so...
over here is kosher yogurt and honey.
We got some condoms
over here-- small, medium, large,
whatever your preference.
I don't want to know.
And the R-rated section in the back
with the stripper pole.
It's normally used for stability,
but tonight it's going to be used
for $50 worth of seminudity.
Coincidentally,
I'm wearing my lap dance pants.
This is, like, your world, huh?
It is.
It's you in your natural habitat, it's fascinating.
I'm just here for Schmidt. I don't know any of these people.
BENJAMIN: Nicholas, what's up, N-word?
Don't call me "N-word."
I don't know this guy.
How's your family in Chicago?
Really good, thanks for asking,
they're all healthy.
That's good.
Oh, look at this big old pile of birthday Schmidt.
(laughs)
Hey, do you mind if I get a ride on your school bus?
I don't want to be late for first period.
(all laughing)
Why you got to do me like that, Been-ja-meen?
(both laugh)
What up?
Why don't you sing us your birthday song?
Oh, you have a birthday song?
All right, all right, guys, come on.
Sing it, come on.
♪ We built this *** ♪
BOTH: ♪ We built this *** ♪
♪ On Tootsie Rolls. ♪
JESS: Is that the lyrics?
Yeah, we used to make him sing that
because he was fat.
You know I'm just playing at you.
Yeah, hilarity, my man, hilarity.
Yeah, come on, man.
You really live with that guy, huh?
Yeah, I really do.
Does he, like, tuck his shiny jeans into boots
when he goes out at night?
You know, the truth is, I met Schmidt a long time ago
when we were in college
and he was this sweet, chubby communications major
Yeah.
I'm actually just messing with you.
Seriously, I think all of your friends seem
completely awesome and nice and fun, so relax.
You don't have to say that.
I don't want to tease them.
I tease them all the time, they don't care.
Schmidt's a d-bag,
you know, but, like, not in a bad way,
and, like, Jess is a total nut.
And Winston is like this
competitive maniac
who loves Sister, Sister and he's, like, afraid of thunder.
Behind you, he's behind you,
Right now he is?
Currently.
And he's also one of my best friends.
Oh, no, keep going.
(mutters)
You want to go on the bus?
Yeah, let's go on the bus.
I'm really sorry, man, I was just saying that
Oh, no,
man, I am bringing you down.
(chuckles)
Bro juice?
*** pom, right?
Winston said it was a tradish.
Look, Benjamin's smiling.
Jess, you did so good.
MAN: Is this stripper pole weight-bearing?
Looks like some pretty shoddy workmanship on the cap ***.
Martin Fuller, GrindPalace.com.
Hi, I'm Jessica Day.
I spoke with your supervisor on the telephone.
(whispering): Um, are you bringing the stripper?
'Cause I really wanted to see her jugs first,
you know, just so... um, I do right by my bro.
We have a little miscommunicado.
Did you make the call?
Because if they hear a woman's voice, then they send me.
I'm your stripper, folks.
Hey, need to clear this aisle.
It's a joke-- no.
Are you the birthday boy?
You are going to love it.
I do wet towel tricks.
No, he does not love wet towel tricks.
We're not... No. Sir, you are not gonna...
I don't want to be rude, but, uh, times are hard.
It is Saturday night,
so if I get hired to take my clothes off,
I'm gonna get naked.
So, I'll just put my gym bag down,
and I'll take my pants off.
No, no, I'll handle it.
(grunts)
Hey, Mr. Fuller.
Mr. Fuller.
Oh, no.
It's getting a little nippy out.
Not a good time to start turtling. (slaps thighs)
Jess, make it stop.
I'm gonna pay you...
$50 to never show us your ***.
But what about tips?
I make my living on tips.
Well, can you do anything else for the money?
I'm a baritone at my gospel choir
at First Presbyterian.
(partiers whooping and cheering)
JESS (over bullhorn): Everybody, everybody...
hey!
Welcome to Schmidt's 29th!
(whooping and cheering)
Safety is of the utmost importance,
so the person sitting next to you
is gonna be your bus buddy for the night.
Any time you're up and about,
please wear one of these fashion helmets.
Tanya has
half a pot cookie, so maybe she'll share.
Okay, everybody, have fun!
Martin, sing us out.

$50. I've never put $50 in the *** bag jar.
Well, that's really impressive, Schmidt, considering.
Someone's personalized condoms just came in the mail.
Hey! Jar! $20.
Winston, did you know
that NWA didn't stand for "Never Walk Alone"?
$30. Jar.
Hey, man.
No! Jar, Schmidt.
What?
Somehow, Schmidt, you've outdone yourself this time.
It was my birthday.
I was very drunk.
All right, everybody, it's time for a shot.
A little bro-juice shot for Benjamin!
What?
For Benjamin is a true...
I'm the king!
JESS: Winston and Nick, come and get your bro juice!
Bro juice!
ALL (chanting): Bro juice! Bro juice!
Bro juice?
I have no idea.
Yeah.
Nick Miller invented bro juice
on Schmidt's twenty-second
Bro juice.
ALL: Bro juice! Bro juice!
Get over here for your bro juice!
(cheering)
(mutters)
This is not gonna be attractive.
(cheering)
Oh, yeah!
Oh, definitely.
Happy birthday, brother.
Happy birthday, ***!
(whooping)
(whooping)
Bro juice!
Bro juice!
When I say "Par," you say "Tay."
ALL: Tay.
Tay!
Holla!
(whooping)
What am I doing?
It makes you think, huh?
Twenties-- they're almost over, man. It's crazy.
Are you hitting that?
No.
Well, then I think I'll help myself.
To sex... with your friend.
SCHMIDT: No, no, no, Benjamin, you can't.
Not with Jess. Please don't.
Well, I can. I can, and I will.
JESS (over bullhorn): Good evening, night owls.
It's about to get bubonic in here,
for tonight, we're going to...
The Plague.
Sorry. Just... It's just Plague.
It's a discotheque.
We'll be going there next.
Whose list are you on? Tristan's?
Isn't it just like a bar
or something?
What do you pull down a year in the game?
Ever since I started doing full frontal,
I pull down seven K a year easy.
Why? You interested in the life?
Me? A male stripper? Come on. You're too kind.
But you know, theoretically, if I were to get into the game,
you know, what are they looking for in the gator department?
You know what I mean?
Or is it just moving so fast that it doesn't really matter?
It's all about storytelling, taking 'em on a journey.
Let me ask you some basics.
When you thrust, what's your range of motion, side-to-side?
Well, left-- right-right.
What about your testicles?
Are they more or less symmetrical?
Size-- yes, location-- no.
What about your persona?
What? Fireman or a cop?
I didn't ask you your character.
Your persona.
I'm a Wolf-Hawk. What are you?
Luxury. Dessert.
I'm a warrior poet, man.
That's it.
Got a number for you to call.
You ever hook up with the ladies?
It's ladies,
like, one out of ten times at most.
You're dancing for dudes?
Yeah, I'm dancing for dudes.
All right, I'm sorry, okay?
You're so quiet. You're having a terrible time.
I don't mean to be. I'm probably just intimidated.
I'm sitting right next to the inventor of bro juice.
That's... I'm gonna brag about that.
I did. I invented bro juice, okay?
What?!
I get it. When we get off the bus, it's over, I blew it.
It's ridiculous. I don't care about any of it.
I really don't. Everyone's got embarrassing stuff.
I mean, I have stuff that you don't know about.
Like what?
Just don't lie to me about stuff,
Fine.
Uh-huh.
I listen to Huey Lewis because it pumps me up.
Not ironically. Want to hear something else?
I don't believe dinosaurs existed.
I've seen the science. I don't believe it.
No, I think I'm good.
And I believe you,
and I appreciate all of this truth-telling.
I don't think you have stuff.
All right.
You're just perfect.
Uh... yeah.
Oh.
Okay.
So, I texted Tristan.
Oh, o-okay.
He said he could get us into Plague.
Yeah.
Well, just you and me, of course.
So why don't you ditch that zero and get with the hero?
The hero is my ***.
Oh. Uh... no.
Hey, Benjamin.
Just leave her alone.
Schmidt, your party is slugs, bro.
All right, you know what?
WINSTON: No, man.
This party is badass, all right?
Don't act like I didn't see you over there
eating on the charcut... the charcut... the charcut?
Charcuterie.
Charcuterie. Don't act like I didn't see you
Charcuterie.
Charcuterie...
Hey, you know what, Curly?
You don't like the bus, then get off it, pal.
You guys suck.
Let me talk to him for a sec.
I'm a lawyer.
She's a lawyer.
Hi. Why don't you just say that one more time?
What? You guys suck?
(groans)
(clamoring)
(blows landing)
Look out! Look out!
(bus crashing)
Oh!
(engine sputtering)
Is everyone okay?
Yes. No worries, Jess.
Is everybody okay?
I'm so sorry.
What, are you nuts?
Oh, God.
(Benjamin groaning)
Who are you?
TANYA: Whoo!
JESS: Tanya, please stop flashing the driver.
What, are you like the Bourne Identity person?
I've got these iss...
like, these anger management issues.
Anger management?
But I'm trying to fix it.
I go to all these class...
They're court-ordered classes, but...
And what was, like, all this stuff you...?
It's martial arts.
I started doing martial arts,
ironically, because I thought
it would give me a little bit more Zen in my life.
You must be really freaked out right now.
Yes, I am really freaked out.
I'm so sorry.
I hate that I'm so turned on by your craziness, but I, um...
I'm going with it.
You guys sure you're cool waiting for the tow truck?
Yeah, it's fine. I'll see you back at the loft.
Bye, guys. Happy birthday.
SCHMIDT: Thank you.
JESS: Bye, Julia. Bye, Bro Juice.
SCHMIDT: Bro-J, my man.
So, it's my birthday.
Right now.
Happy birthday, Schmidt.
I'm 29, folks. What's up?
29!
(laughs)
29!
Can you please not tell anybody I just did that?
That feels embarrassing.
Actually, you know what? I don't care what people think.
Do you think I care too much about what people think, Jess?
Maybe.
What? Did you have fun tonight?
'Cause I know it was a little bit... flawed.
Jess, are you kidding me?
Tonight was... tens across the board.
No splash.
No. For real, I had...
Nobody's ever done that for me before.
Any time, Schmidt. Any time.
Schmidt, why are you looking at me like that?
(laughs)
Shh.
(whistling)
'Cause you had... you had fuzz on your face.
Oh, my God.
Oh, my God! Jar.
You had a piece of fuzz, and...
NICK/WINSTON: You tried to kiss her?!
It was right there and just...
Yeah, come on. No excuses, Schmidt.
Okay. For you... for you guys.
Happy birthday.
29!
Ten more.
Sorry about that.
Ah, Frankie Muniz.
Ooh, Jess, I just found a Groupon for hypnosis lessons.
Think about what you can do with that.
JESS: Jar.
Look, guys, has anyone seen my good pea coat?
WINSTON: Jar!
NICK: Jar!
Darn it! Has anyone seen my croquet cleats?
Hey, Jess, have you seen my other timepiece?
Nick, I came up with the best name for an uncircumcised ***.
NICK: Ugh! Jar!
Damn it! I can't find my driving moccasins anywhere.
