Q

I’ve learned that the only way I can move to the next level of my awakening is if we all can somehow get past the incident.

Until I am past this whole wedding debacle, I can’t be intimate with him.

I would love to get this thing behind us, but Gloria would never forgive me if I pulled a fast one on her.

We’re gonna move past this.

A

get past something: to be able to stop something from affecting you, upsetting you, or influencing you

debacle: an event or situation that is a complete failure

pull a fast one: to trick someone

Guys pull pranks like that all the time. You just gotta prank ‘em back. You just gotta show ‘em you’re willing to give as good as you get.

I’m not sure what you’re asking me to do.

Everyone is mad at me. Maybe you could pave the way so that I can apologize.

That fish would look at Mitchell’s relationship with his mother and say, “that’s messed up”.

someone who is messed up has emotional or mental problems because of something that has happened to them

Things with your mom got pretty intense down there. You feeling me?

A
22
Q

I think concerts are rad.

Rich Girl just spoke to me.

if something such as a poem, painting, or piece of music speaks to you, you like it because it expresses a particular meaning, quality, or feeling to you

Modern art just doesn’t speak to me.

Just in the hood. Do you remember how mom gave up a career to raise us?

Promising career.

32
Q

Not making this easy.

A
33
Q

When mom makes a mess, there’s Mitchell to clean it up.

This is so not true. If anything, you are the one with the screwed-up relationship with Mommy.

It sounds good, but I’ll have to clear it with my wife.

The Prime Minister insisted that we clear every press release with her first.

34
Q

She’s out dealing with a Manny situation.
He set a kid’s bike on fire.

A

get even with someone:

A
40

So you just spring it on Gloria like this. What the hell is wrong with you?
