I'll agree with the post above that it is rather exposition-heavy. Another example is the bit about Denver's major -- rather than just telling us as you do here, it could be shown in dialogue between Denver and his father. We can find out they're in conflict over this issue by seeing them argue/snipe at each other over it.

It hasn't been laugh-out-loud funny -- no real sitcom-like punchlines, but if it's not a sitcom you're going for, that's okay. It seems on track for the "dramedy" tone. I liked the "Now he just nods a lot" line! Some of those lines I can imagine the humor really coming alive when an actor delivers them.
