My First Claire (2010)
I had big plans that summer,
I was going to learn some things. Ted, we're home. Teddy! What are you doing in here? - Nothing! See, that year, 1989, everything had gotten confusing. It all started when I danced with my cousin at her birthday party and got a hard on. Completely naked? Oh that's - Oh yeah! And I realized that all the guys at school knew things that I didn't. What's wrong with him? He is such a loser! They had secret hand signals and their own code. Come on, let's go guys. And I was just trying to keep up. Bernie Plotkin was a big help. He was kind of an expert on all things sexual. So you wake up and then there is stuff in your pants. Yup! From the dream. He told me a few things for a price. He charged a buck for one of his dad pornos. I had always assumed that my father would be the one to teach me this stuff. But things changed. I met someone and we've fallen in love. Oh bullshit, he's an asshole. He doesn't even know what love is. A horny fucker. He just wanted something tighter he could stick his dick in. Shit! I've gotta go. But at home, now that my dad was gone, everything was different. I had to figure it all out on my own. And I had a lot to learn. Teddy, come on! OK, sorry. Fluff? Yes fluff, of course fluff. No fluff. Shit! You are always forgetting my stuff! It's not fair! I am not Teddy, it was an accident. The babysitter will get you something. Hannah it's your turn to help. You finish unpacking. I'm in the middle of some stuff. You are not! Who ever heard of a fluffernutter without fluff. That's called a peanut butter sandwich and it is disgusting! Ted, I'm sorry about the fluff. Now please just help me. I need to get on the road. What the hell! Guys, please! I'll be gone in just a few minutes then you can kill each other all you want. You're just a lazy lardo! Are you kidding me?! - Just knock it off! Mrs. Kargman? - Fuck. Claire Hi sorry to interrupt. Oh, no, no don't be silly, just a little family spat. OK, this is Hannah and this is Teddy. Hi. Hannah why don't you show Claire her room? Fine. I'm gonna show you your room. Teddy! Teddy, clean that mess up. Please. OK Teddy I'm off! Now I want you to try and behave this weekend, OK? Mom, I don't need babysitting! Please, I am exhausted. I need a break. Please, let me get out of here, OK? Mom, I've been going to sleepovers alone for like a year now. OK, Teddy please, just stop, this now. Claire! Mom!? Teddy, listen... I will be back in 2 days. All right? Before you even know it, OK. All right. Claire! Oh there you are Claire Teddy is a little worried about staying home alone. You'll take good care of my little teddy bear, won't you? Of course I will! See, my little baby. Have a good time, OK? I'll see you later. I love you. I love you too. Have fun baby. Don't worry about a thing while you are gone. We'll be fine. Thank you Claire. Goodbye buddy. I don't feel so good. Okay. Teddy? One fluffernutter sandwich, at your service. Wow, thanks! Sure! Your mom said that you love those, so... I mean, she's gone and Hannah won't come out of her room so you wanna hang out? I just don't feel good. Is is this, normal Ted? You know everybody hanging out in their rooms not talking to each other? Aha. Well, I want to have some fun this weekend. You gonna help me out? Aha. All right. You and me we are going to have some fun. Yeah, Hi, is Bernie home? It's Teddy Kargman. OK, thanks. Bernie, Hi look, I need some advice.... Hey Claire, thanks for the sandwich. Decent, but I'll give you some pointers for next time. Well I'm sorry it wasn't up to par you'll have to show me some of your tricks. Want some coke? I usually have wine with dinner. You know, European style. Why didn't anybody tell me the pizza was here? You want some? There should be a decent white in the fridge. What are you doing? Teddy. Give me this. Guys! You're such a moron. Why are you wearing dad's stupid shirt anyway? Hannah come on, he's just, being sweet. No. It's because you like her, isn't it? Shut up. He's just horny. Hannah?! Shut up! We're like the same age! Jeez, what a little badass. It's a nice shirt, whosever it is. It's mine. I promise. Well it looks nice on you. Very spiffy. Thanks. So how about we go to the beach? Beach?

No. No? You mean there aren't any little girls around the neighborhood that you're interested in or, at school? Oh, well I haven't really ever gotten to I haven't even thought about having a girlfriend really. Really? Little stud like you. Well... I mean the kids at school aren't exactly, very well nice to me. What? I'm not exactly the coolest kid around. Is what I'm saying. That is unbelievable. I need to go have a word with those children. Cool! Well I bet your teammates loved you for that.
