32 Is Ancient When You're 12
TEQUILA RED: This year is the first year in a long time that I didn't have a birthday party.
DYLAN: Why not?
TEQUILA RED: I don't know. I guess I just didn't feel like it.
DYLAN: Yeah. As you get towards the end of your life those things don't matter so much anymore.
TEQUILA RED: You'll be getting towards the end of YOUR life if you don't watch it.
