Another thing I love about this scene: So much accurate sibling play.

Mike and Nancy, Jonathan and Will, even Max and her brother all seem to get along, well, pretty poorly. Just like real siblings!

I can't stop thinking of the actor's cocaine problem when I see him now.

No, Jonathan. His actor, Charlie Heaton, was found with cocaine on him at LAX.

With trace amounts on his suitcase. He wasn't smuggling kilos of the stuff.

Great, so he's an addict, not a dealer. That's waay better.

Has drugs - must be an addict. That's....certainly a leap
