Well, the good news is that a
00:00
substantial amount of royalties is going
00:02
to come in in the next couple of months.
00:03
Great. Problem solved. Let's go out to
00:05
dinner. No, problem not solved. But I'm
00:07
hungry. Get used to it.
00:10
It's going to take a while to pay off
00:14
all the bills your accountant ignored.
00:15
So until then, you're going to have to
00:18
cut back. But you said I got money
00:19
coming. Shall I go get the paper cup?
00:21
Okay. What do we cut? Well, let's look
00:25
at your expenses. Uh, first thing is we
00:28
stop paying your accountant. That's a
00:30
little cold, isn't it?
00:33
He's a great guy. I've known him for
00:35
years. He's just going through a rough
00:37
patch. Charlie, you're broke. You're
00:38
right. Screw him. What's next? Um, you
00:39
have a gardener. Why do you have a
00:43
gardener? To tend my garden.
00:44
Garden? You mean the two potted palms on
00:48
Water them yourself. Okay, but I'm going
00:52
to have to buy a hose and one of those
00:54
watering things. So, isn't that kind of
00:56
Gone. Now, the Ultimate Premiere
01:01
satellite package. Oh, that's really
01:03
cool. I get every sporting event in the
01:05
world. If a kid in Madagascar throws a
01:07
rock at a tree, I can see it and bet on
01:09
It's gone. Oh, man. We can keep the
01:13
cable though, right? You have satellite
01:16
and cable. Sometimes there's solar
01:18
flares. Okay, we can cut back to basic
01:20
cable. Basic cable? That's what they get
01:23
Hey, what you doing? Bad time, Rose.
01:30
Money problems, huh?
01:33
How did you know? I bought your espresso
01:36
maker from Bura. I got a great deal cuz
01:38
she didn't want to carry it on the bus.
01:40
Wonderful. Charlie, miscellaneous cash
01:43
expenses. What exactly is that?
01:46
I don't know. Go see a movie, buy a hot
01:49
dog, stuff like that. It was $80,000
01:51
Oh, that that's women and gambling.
01:57
Gone and gone. Great. Why don't I just
02:01
shoot myself? You can't afford a gun.
02:05
You know, I could lend you some money,
02:10
Charlie. That's very sweet, Rose, but I
02:11
don't really want to shoot myself.
02:14
Charlie, the way I see it, you're either
02:16
going to have to slash expenses or find
02:17
the money to pay your bills someplace
02:19
I'll borrow on the house. You've already
02:23
got three mortgages. Is that a lot? Not
02:25
if you have three houses.
02:27
Let me ask you a tough question. What
02:30
would you think about going to mom for a
02:32
short-term loan? H interesting idea.
02:35
I think I'd rather have a pack of hyenas
02:39
tear out and devour my intestines.
02:41
Yeah, I know. I know. I can't afford
02:45
Need some help? Yeah. Come to my house
02:51
and explain to my daughter that we don't
02:53
put up bail for cute guys with Costa
02:55
Morning. I got your groceries, Charlie.
03:00
You owe me $74. Why don't you just use
03:02
my credit card? I tried. Funny story.
03:04
Look what they did to my platinum card.
03:15
They decapitated my holographic eagle.
03:18
Yeah. Yeah, that's sad. You owe me 74
03:22
bucks. Relax. I'll write you a check.
03:24
Vera, I'm good for $74. Well, there's an
03:29
assistant store manager with bad skin
03:31
and a pair of scissors who begs to
03:33
differ. He obviously made a mistake.
03:35
Leave it to me. I'll straighten it out.
03:38
Alan, what do I do?
03:42
Uh, call the bank that issued the card
03:44
and figure out what's going on. Good
03:46
How do I get the number? It's usually on
03:51
the back of the card.
03:53
Okay, this may take a while.
04:00
I don't believe it.
04:09
None of my bills have been paid in four
04:11
months. My credit is shot. All my cards
04:13
are dead. Well, you don't have to worry
04:15
about paying me this week, Charlie.
04:17
Thank you, Ba. I'll just take this
04:19
espresso maker and be on my way.
04:20
Call me when things pick up.
04:24
Hey, how's the jingle coming? The lyrics
04:29
are fine. The music needs a little work.
04:33
How's Jake? Oh, he'll be okay. Uh, I
04:37
stayed over at the house a little while.
04:39
We watched some movies. I uh I made us
04:41
some soup and a couple of sandwiches.
04:43
And uh Judith suggested I take mine to
04:45
Well, she started my car and threw my
04:51
sandwich in the back seat. It's rough.
04:53
Uh, listen. Uh, I'm afraid I got some
04:56
more bad news for you. Oh, no. I forgot
04:59
to bring Porky back.
05:02
See, that's the thing.
05:04
Nothing's bringing Porky back.
05:07
What? What? Porky's dead. Buddy, buddy,
05:10
buddy. That's all, folks.
05:14
It's okay. We can We can get Jake
05:26
another guinea pig. Jake will be fine.
05:28
This is his fourth porky in three years.
05:32
He goes through them faster than shoes.
05:36
No, this is about my life.
05:40
Everything is going to hell.
05:44
Okay. Well, I I I don't don't cry. We
05:46
can still be friends.
05:49
What? I'm sorry. It's the only thing I
05:53
know to say when someone cries around
05:56
I am so sorry, Porky.
06:02
You just kept running around in your
06:05
little cage trying to make everybody
06:07
And what do you get? You get dead.
06:10
You do know the pig can't hear you,
06:15
Don't you get it? I am the pig. Okay.
06:19
Okay. I I I'm just asking because your
06:23
your reaction doesn't seem very healthy
06:25
to me. And what do you think would be
06:27
healthy, Charlie? I don't know. Why
06:28
don't we toss pork in the ocean and go
06:31
How could you? How could you?
06:38
Charlie, I'm telling you right now, I'm
06:48
not going to sleep with you tonight. Oh,
06:50
whoa, whoa. Where'd that come from?
06:52
Buy you a couple of drinks, invite you
06:56
back to my house, and all of a sudden,
06:58
you think I want to sleep with you?
06:59
Yeah. You mean you don't? Hey, we just
07:03
met. Let's talk. Get to know each other.
07:06
If later down the road something
07:09
happens, great. If not, we've each made
07:11
That is very sweet. Well, my mother
07:15
raised me to be respectful of women, and
07:18
I've always said, "Son of a bitch."
07:21
That That's what butterscotch candies.
07:30
In about 30 seconds, they're going to be
07:35
butterscotch suppositories.
07:36
Thank you. Well, we have a wild show.
07:40
Morning. I couldn't help but notice the
07:54
guys from Goodwill hauling away Allen's
07:56
Oh, yeah. He doesn't live here anymore.
08:00
No kidding. Allan's gone. Yep. Wow.
08:03
So, you couldn't think for even a second
08:08
that I might want to hide a bit?
08:10
Sorry. You want some flowered towels? B.
08:15
So, what broke your two love birds up?
08:20
He crossed the line. Must have been a
08:23
big one. Very big. Was it money? Worse,
08:25
a woman. Worse. What's worse than money
08:29
He bought an ugly bowl and put it on the
08:34
Then when I told him to get rid of it,
08:43
he filled it with candy and put it on
08:45
the coffee table. Dear God.
08:47
What kind of candy? Butterscotch. M.
08:52
I mean, the son of a
08:57
Are you making fun of me? I'm trying.
09:01
So, what? You think I should just let
09:05
him put a candy dish wherever he wants?
09:06
No, you're right. He obviously had to
09:09
go. He's an ungrateful parasite who
09:12
overstepped his boundaries. Exactly.
09:14
While you, on the other hand, are a
09:17
completely reasonable man with no
09:18
control issues whatsoever.
09:20
I don't pay you to mock me, Charlie.
09:23
You'd have to pay me not to
09:25
tell the doctor that if I was a tree,
09:28
the rash is predominantly around the
09:30
but I'm starting to see some redness on
09:40
the adjacent boulders.
09:42
Oh, come on. Tree, two boulders. What
09:46
part don't you understand?
09:48
Hey. Hey. Okay, just have him call me.
09:51
Heard from Jake? Nope. I'll call him at
09:55
his mom's. See how school went? Alan,
09:57
does this look infected to you? What?
10:00
get that away from me. I'm not asking
10:04
you to tickle it. Just take a look. No,
10:06
thank you. But you're a doctor. I'm a
10:08
I work with vertebrae. And contrary to
10:13
popular belief, there's not a single
10:15
Uh, no, nothing. I was I was just
10:23
talking to Charlie. Uh, hey. Hey, is
10:24
Jake home from school yet? No. Oh, okay.
10:26
Well, I was just wondering how his first
10:29
day went. Uh, have him call me. Okay.
10:31
Hope he didn't wander under the
10:37
bleachers during lunch hour. Ah, he's
10:38
smarter than that. Smart, Charlie. He
10:40
only got out of sixth grade cuz he
10:43
couldn't fit in the desks anymore.
10:44
Well, if you're that concerned, just
10:47
call him on his cell. Good idea.
10:49
Well, this is going to be a sucky
11:01
weekend. Try spending it with an
11:03
11-year-old who does nothing but
11:05
Well, no wonder they got to write your
11:11
name in your underwear.
11:12
What am I supposed to do?
11:16
Watch TV. There's nothing on. Play a
11:18
video game. I played them all. Read a
11:21
book. You're right. Who's the now?
11:23
Okay, here's a rainy day activity. There
11:28
are 12 college basketball games on this
11:32
weekend. Dial this number and ask for
11:34
Coupe. Tell him you're calling for Mr.
11:37
Bo Jingles and write down everything he
11:38
tells you. Do I get to make some of the
11:41
picks this time? You got money? If you
11:43
pay me what you owe me,
11:45
you get an education here. That's
11:47
What's going on? Just talking about
11:52
picking colleges. I'm Duke over Wake
11:54
Forest. Got a hunch.
11:57
You've got him thinking about college
12:00
already. You're welcome.
12:02
Well, you don't have a fever. I told you
12:06
he's fine. Let's go. Charlie, he threw
12:08
up in your umbrella stand. Did you miss
12:11
that? So Vegas is full of people who
12:13
They built that city on a sea of vomit.
12:18
I'm okay. I can go. That's the spirit.
12:22
You really want to drive 5 hours through
12:24
the desert with a puking kid in the back
12:26
of your new Mercedes? He can stick his
12:28
head out the window. Let the guy behind
12:30
We're not going. Oh, come on. It's
12:34
probably just something he ate. All
12:36
right. What have you eaten in the last
12:37
24 hours? Well, let's see. Two bowls of
12:39
cocoa puffs. Uh, a couple of blueberry
12:42
Pop-Tarts. bag of string cheese. That
12:45
reminds me, we need more string cheese.
12:48
Then for lunch, a hot pocket and a bagel
12:50
fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and a
12:57
Okay, it's not what he ate.
13:01
Then for snack, I had a glass of tang
13:04
That explains the orange vomit. It's
13:07
probably some kind of stomach virus. Oh,
13:10
please. I throw up all the time. It's
13:12
just nature's way of saying everybody
13:14
I'm putting him to bed. Come on. They
13:18
have beds in Vegas. What if he needs a
13:19
doctor? They have doctors in Vegas. I
13:21
bet if we looked around, we could find a
13:24
casino with a hospital theme. You know,
13:25
Caesar's cyani or something.
13:28
Hello. Hey, Mom. Fine.
13:36
Nothing. Oh, yeah. I threw up in Uncle
13:40
Charlie's umbrella stand and we're going
13:42
What kind of a father are you? Hey, I am
13:48
a good father. The minute he threw up, I
13:50
canceled the trip. But you were planning
13:52
to take my 11-year-old child to Las
13:54
Vegas. It's really a family town now.
13:55
The mob hardly has any influence at all
14:00
Oh, good. Charlie, that helps. When were
14:04
you planning on telling me about this
14:07
trip? What happens in Vegas stays Vegas.
14:09
Oh, good, Jake. That helps.
14:14
Honey, why don't you go lie down? Why?
14:16
I'm fine. Uncle Charlie, is it too late
14:19
to get our beds down with Coupe? What
14:21
beds? Whose coupe? Go lie down. You're
14:22
Oh, Charlie. Charlie, come here. Say
14:28
hello to your uncle Charlie. Hey, Uncle
14:29
Charlie. Hi, Jake. I can see you. I can
14:31
How much? What's new with you? Nothing.
14:41
Oh, wait. I Googled you and you'll never
14:44
guess what I found. Jake, are you in the
14:47
bathtub? Yeah. Got to go. No, no, no.
14:49
Wait, wait, wait. Jake, what are you
14:52
talking about? What's he talking about?
14:53
I don't know, but if you Google me,
14:56
you'll find two pages that mention my
14:58
San Frernando Valley Chiropractor of the
14:59
That's nice. Get out of the way.
15:03
Oh. Uh, careful. There's a there's
15:07
another Alan J. Harper. Uh, he's a
15:08
school bus driver and he he also makes
15:11
these decorative pigs out of bleach
15:13
bottles and pipe cleaners. I'm not
15:15
googling you. I'm googling me.
15:18
charlie Harper sucks.com.
15:24
It's got to be a different Charlie
15:28
Okay. I have a bad feeling.
15:37
Are you still reading that thing? How
15:51
can I not? It's an entire website
15:53
devoted to trashing me. Listen to this.
15:55
Has anybody had sex with Charlie where
15:58
he actually bothered to take his socks
16:00
That's just mean. I have bad circulation
16:04
in my feet. They get cold.
16:06
Check this out. Some girl posted audio
16:09
off her answering machine.
16:12
Hey, it's me. I just wanted to tell you
16:15
I had a great time last night. I'm
16:17
looking forward. Hello, Charlie.
16:19
Yeah. Hi. We weren't together last
16:22
no. Beth, Thursday.
16:30
I had a great time with you Thursday.
16:34
And I thought that maybe
16:35
Oh, well, what am I going to do? Every
16:38
woman in the city can see this stuff.
16:41
Every woman in the world.
16:43
Well, you know what they say. Any
16:47
No. No. No. No. What I do requires
16:54
secrecy. I need shadows and darkness.
16:56
I'm like a magician. If everybody knows
16:59
how I do it, it ceases to be
17:01
Frequently asked questions. Don't read
17:07
that. Yeah, right. Uh, okay. Question.
17:09
How long can you expect to date Charlie
17:13
after you have sex with him? Uh, answer.
17:15
It depends how late you sleep the next
17:17
Oh, come on. This is funny. You're just
17:21
Is this the new Oshikuru Demon Samurai?
17:28
Yeah. What are you doing with it? It's
17:31
being turned into a Saturday morning
17:34
cartoon and they asked me to write the
17:35
theme song. Awesome.
17:36
Yeah. Want to hear what I got so far?
17:39
Sure. So, I'll be like the first kid in
17:41
the world to hear this. Yep.
17:44
Now, this is just a rough version, but
17:48
you get an idea of the feel of it. Okay.
17:49
shuru. My oh my. He's a demon samurai.
18:00
Who's the guy who had to die? Oh shu.
18:06
Excuse me. Did you even read the comic?
18:16
Yeah, I looked it over.
18:20
Oh, really? What's it about?
18:22
Uh, it's about this guy named Oshikuru
18:25
who dies and comes back as a what do you
18:28
No, it's about a teenage boy in a
18:36
futuristic society who's possessed by
18:38
the torture soul of a fetal Japanese
18:41
warrior condemned to walk the earth
18:43
fighting the evil he once embodied. So,
18:45
what's your point? He lives in a dark
18:48
world. He battles the spirits of the
18:51
damned. Your thing doesn't capture the
18:52
mood at all. It just blows.
18:54
Okay. Okay. You said blows already. Did
18:57
I say big baby chunks?
19:00
All right, fine. Thanks for your input.
19:03
Now, why don't you go read Lord of the
19:06
Flies and let me do my job. Well, if
19:08
your job is ruining a great comic book,
19:10
you can call it a night. I heard that.
19:12
shu. My oh my. He's a demon samurai.
19:26
Who's the guy who had to die? Oh shu.
19:32
That's not what we wrote. That's your
19:36
original sucky version. What can I tell
19:38
you? Network like that one better. What
19:41
are they? Brain damaged.
19:43
Welcome to show business, kid.
19:46
I still think it's snappy.
19:51
You're not going to get much done with
19:58
the TV on. What are you, my mother? Your
20:00
mother says that, too?
20:03
Listen, when you write music for a
20:06
living, you have to wait for
20:07
Hey, Charlie. You want to come to the
20:16
movies with us? I can't. He's working.
20:17
On what? Liver failure.
20:21
Wonderful. He's my mother. You're my
20:24
Oh, I assume you finished reading Lord
20:27
of the Flies for your book report.
20:29
Uh-huh. Oh, good. Uh, how'd you like it?
20:30
I thought it was a timeless American
20:33
I see. So, tell me, what's it about? You
20:38
Yeah, the book. Um, it's called Lord of
20:45
and it's about a really big fly that all
20:50
the other flies prey to.
20:55
You thought he didn't read it.
21:00
Oh, I was just joking.
21:03
It's more like Charlotte's Web, but from
21:07
the flies point of view.
21:10
Jake, you've had more than a week. Well,
21:14
why didn't you read the book? Um, I've
21:15
been waiting for inspiration.
21:18
Okay. How's this for inspiration? We're
21:23
not going to the movies. And you're not
21:25
doing anything else until you finish
21:27
That's not fair. Of course, it's fair.
21:31
We had a deal and you didn't keep your
21:33
end of it. Oh, so now two wrongs make a
21:34
Bet you didn't see that one coming.
21:39
Look, Jake, you're really going to like
21:42
this book if you give it a chance. It's
21:44
about kids stranded on a deserted
21:45
island. How they get stranded? Their
21:47
plane crashes. Oh, really? Then what
21:49
happens? Well, this one kid named Ralph
21:52
becomes their leader and they form the
21:55
society and just read the book.
21:56
Hey, I took a shot.
22:05
Everybody's fine. How's Vegas? You know,
22:22
the usual. How was your weekend? Pretty
22:25
Did her name happen to be Gretchen?
22:36
That's indelible marker, you know. I
22:44
know. And don't worry, it'll come off in
22:46
a few weeks. That's what I figured. Does
22:47
she still have her little mustache? You
22:49
know, down at the Russian front.
22:51
I wouldn't know what she's got. I was
22:55
blindfolded in hog tied. Right.
22:57
Why are you wearing sunglasses? No
23:01
reason. Why don't you take them off?
23:02
Okay, fine. You might as well know.
23:05
Oh no. What happened? Uh, some bikers
23:14
were giving a stripper a hard time, so I
23:16
jumped in. You're kidding. You know me.
23:18
I can't stand to see a naked high heeled
23:22
glitter covered ping pong ball shooting
23:24
Oh, that that sounds very brave. Good
23:30
for you. Thank you. H um Charlie. Yeah.
23:34
Uh if you're going to go with that
23:39
story, you might want to ask mom to stop
23:40
telling people you had your eyes done.
23:42
The mummy strikes again.
23:47
You know, it's actually not a bad look.
23:52
Shame one guy had to ruin it for
23:57
Are you sending us to military school?
24:00
No, of course not. Why would you think
24:03
that? I don't know. 16 years of bargain
24:05
pizza with fake cheese and Sam's Club
24:07
vanilla wafers for dessert.
24:09
I don't want to go to military school.
24:13
No one's going to military school. But
24:14
there is uh something we wanted to talk
24:17
to you about. Here it comes. Relax. It's
24:19
good news, Alan. All right. Uh, as you
24:22
both know, uh, Lindsay and I have been
24:26
dating now for 6 months. Oh, man. Did he
24:28
knock you up? No. just be quiet and
24:31
listen. Anyway, uh we've both grown very
24:34
fond of each other during that time. You
24:38
are using protection, right?
24:40
That's none of your business, but I'm
24:42
glad you're paying attention in health
24:44
But what I'm trying to say is that
24:47
Lindsay and I have decided to live
24:49
I don't think Uncle Charlie's going to
24:55
like that. He's never been real pleased
24:56
that you and I moved in.
24:57
Uh no, no, no. We're going to live at
25:01
Lindsay's and Eldrich's house. But I
25:02
stay here, right? No. When you're not at
25:04
your mom's, she'll be with us. So, I'm
25:07
losing my weekend beach house.
25:09
Yeah, but you're gaining a whole family.
25:12
I'd rather have a weekend beach house.
25:14
Do I have to share my bathroom with him?
25:17
Eldridge, what's wrong with sharing a
25:18
bathroom with me? I like my privacy.
25:20
Yeah, we all know what that's about.
25:22
Jake, you're Mr. Whack-a-ole, not me.
25:23
Yeah, well, at least I don't watch gay
25:26
porn. That was a total accident.
25:27
I don't want to live with him. Well, you
25:31
don't have to worry about it cuz I'm not
25:32
going. Guys, guys, come on. No, forget
25:33
it. I mean, it's bad enough you're
25:35
sleeping with this loser. Aldridge, are
25:37
you calling my dad a loser? You call him
25:39
a loser all the time. He's my dad. I'm
25:40
allowed. Well, uh, Jake, technically,
25:43
you're not allowed. Is it okay for me to
25:45
call your mom what you call her? What do
25:46
you call me? Okay, we've gotten off
25:48
track here. Uh, who's ready for
25:50
cupcakes? Screw you and your cupcakes.
25:52
I'll just uh take one for later.
26:01
Days are here again. The skies above are
26:06
clear again. I'm getting rid of the
26:10
queer again. Happy days are here again.
26:12
Hey. Hey there. Oh, there. What are you
26:16
doing? Just thought I'd help you get a
26:20
jump on the packing. Oh. Oh, well, you
26:21
can unpack cuz I'm not leaving. What?
26:24
No. The boys just won't go along with
26:27
it. You're giving those two morons a
26:30
vote. It's too traumatic. You know,
26:32
turning their lives upside down. So, let
26:34
them be traumatized. That's the trouble
26:36
with kids these days. Not enough trauma.
26:38
Charlie, I'm sorry. I know you were
26:41
looking forward to having the house back
26:42
to yourself, but it's just not going to
26:44
happen. Oh, it's going to happen. As God
26:45
is my witness, and by all that's holy,
26:48
it's going to happen.
26:50
Hey man, keep packing.
26:53
He couldn't spell miscellaneous.
27:04
It's my life in my house. I don't need
27:06
your permission. I don't care. I'll just
27:08
go live with dad and Stephanie. Oh,
27:09
won't that be nice? You'll be reunited
27:11
with your old babysitter. Excuse us.
27:13
Walk. Dude, don't dude me. I'm in no
27:16
Dude, don't dude him, dude.
27:27
All right. What's this I hear about you
27:30
guys not wanting to live together. I
27:32
know my privacy, and I think things are
27:33
fine. It was a rhetorical question. I
27:35
don't give a rat's ass.
27:36
Now, the happiness of your parents is at
27:40
stake here. So, we're going to reason
27:42
this out like adults in the interest of
27:44
Here's five minute notes.
27:48
Split it up any way you want. Nice. And
27:52
that's just the down payment. There's an
27:55
extra hundred in there for every month
27:56
you keep my brother out of my house.
27:57
$100 a month? That's like a $1,000 a
27:59
Do we have a deal? Deal. Great.
28:08
I should write a book on parenting.
28:12
How are we supposed to split this? I
28:17
don't know, dude. No matter how I figure
28:19
it, there's going to be one left over.
28:21
I'm never going to drink again.
28:27
Charlie. Oh, right. Data, boy.
28:32
Here's your waist basket. I rinsed it
28:37
out, but there are still some tiny
28:40
chunks in the weave.
28:41
Maybe you could use your dad's water
28:44
Give the kid a break for his hung over.
28:48
Next time, tell your friends to puke out
28:54
Want to know a surefire hangover cure?
29:00
Never stop drinking.
29:04
Charlie, let me finish. Or never start
29:07
in the first place.
29:10
See how I turned that around? Bring it
29:12
All right. For starters, you and
29:18
Eldridge stole beer that did not belong
29:20
to you. That is not how I raised you.
29:21
Hey. Hey. Jake's friend show up. Yeah,
29:25
he's here. When's he leaving?
29:28
I said he could spend the night. Really?
29:31
Did you consider clearing it with me?
29:33
You would have said no to Jake having a
29:35
friend over. If you recall, seven years
29:37
ago, I said no to having Jake over. And
29:39
yet here he is. So, what's the point in
29:42
What do we know about the little drummer
29:47
boy? Not much. Jake says he's one of the
29:48
cool kids at school. Why is he hanging
29:51
You're saying my son's not cool? I'm
29:55
saying your son got his tongue stuck to
29:56
the freezer last weekend. That could
29:58
have happened to anybody. Anybody who
30:00
tried to pick up an Eskimo pie with
30:02
His hands were full. With a honeybaked
30:05
Okay, so he's not cool and he eats a lot
30:10
of crap and his grades aren't the best
30:12
and his personal hygiene is a little
30:14
Is there a butt coming?
30:18
But he's my son and I love him.
30:20
What's so funny? Mom says the same thing
30:28
Really? Mom says she loves me.
30:33
Hey, Charles. So, when you say a bunch
30:37
of you stayed to clean up, how many are
30:40
you talking about? I don't know. A
30:42
You know, technically a couple is two.
30:48
So, are you saying there were two people
30:51
in addition to you and Brad or just you
30:52
and Brad? What are you getting at?
30:54
Nothing. Just trying to get an accurate
30:56
headcount. You could have come with me,
30:58
you know. I know. It'd be nice for us to
31:00
do some things together once in a while.
31:03
We do plenty of things together besides
31:06
when Brad's wife was alive, they played
31:12
tennis every day. Probably what killed
31:13
She was hit by a car.
31:17
Maybe she was chasing a tennis ball.
31:20
You know, like a dog.
31:24
You throw it, run after it, even if
31:28
The hell is that? Two guys in a cage
31:44
beating the snot out of each other.
31:47
Can't believe I wasted so many years
31:49
Turn it down. Hi, Captain Douche. Who
31:53
needs to talk about Brad? No. No, we
31:57
don't. I'm sorry. I trust you and I was
32:00
totally and completely wrong to think
32:04
there might be something going on
32:06
between you two. Thank you for that.
32:07
You're welcome. Okay, let's go home.
32:09
Hold on. I do have a confession to make.
32:13
Oh, this is never good.
32:17
The reason I got so upset by the things
32:21
you said was because well, you kind of
32:23
touched a nerve. Yeah, I do that. I'm a
32:26
nerve toucher. Runs in the family.
32:28
Okay. Hey, well, confession's over and
32:32
you forgive me. I forgive you. Let's go
32:34
home. I'm not done. A crap.
32:36
Thing is, I was kind of attracted to
32:43
He's a great guy and we have a lot in
32:47
He loves his family and really cares
32:51
about his friends and his community.
32:54
I'm taking from your tone that stuff's
32:57
Yes, Charlie. It's important to me.
33:01
Did you and Brad do anything
33:05
other than talk? Of course not.
33:08
Nothing's happened. Oh, thank God. But
33:11
while I do love you, I need to know you
33:14
care as much as I do. I do. You say
33:17
that, but are you willing to really work
33:20
on our relationship? Of course I am. We
33:22
can start doing things together,
33:25
community things, you know, with the the
33:27
the the kids that are poor and the old
33:29
people that fall and can't get up.
33:32
What about your family? I get a new
33:36
I'm telling you, I can change. I can be
33:40
a better man, the man you want me to be.
33:43
Oh my god. I am so so sorry. You threw
33:53
Anyway, to be fair, I don't think the
34:00
carrots were mine. Get away from him,
34:02
you kid. I'm sorry. I'm sorry.
34:04
I just got a call from Chelsea.
34:31
She said she wants to postpone the
34:36
Believe it or not, I do love you and I
34:48
hate to see you hurt.
34:52
Yeah, well, I guess I kind of had it
34:54
I just have one question.
35:05
What's that? Did you really vomit on a
35:08
Don't beat yourself up too much. We've
35:18
Of course, most of us do it on our own
35:26
Hey, Jake. What's this? A phone message?
35:33
Yeah, some lady called for you. Who? I
35:35
can't read your writing.
35:38
You're a big selfish jerk.
35:42
Okay, I know who this is.
35:48
Yep. Amy, she wants you to call her
35:57
back. Yeah, that'll happen. Why not? Cuz
35:58
I never said I'd call her back.
36:02
Remember this, Jake.
36:06
Never make promises to women that you
36:08
don't intend to keep. And you know how
36:09
you do that? Always keep my promises.
36:11
A better way is never make promises.
36:16
What happens if Amy calls again? Okay,
36:19
I'm glad you asked that. When the phone
36:22
rings at Uncle Charlie's house, we don't
36:25
just willy-nilly pick up the receiver
36:26
what we do is we check the caller ID.
36:31
And only pick up if we want to talk to
36:36
that person. Like mom, it depends.
36:38
Your mom? Yes. My mom knew.
36:43
How come you don't want to talk to your
36:47
mom? I'll tell you all about that when
36:48
you're old enough to drink.
36:50
What if I want to talk to your mom?
36:53
Okay. That kind of attitude is going to
36:55
break down the whole system. I really
36:57
want to apologize for putting you
37:00
through this. I was wrong to blame you
37:01
for my unhappiness. No, no need to
37:03
apologize. What what's important is that
37:05
we're here and we're working on our
37:07
marriage. You look great, by the way.
37:08
Must be all the extra oxygen they pump
37:10
And and and and you were right. I I see
37:14
now that the time apart did us both a
37:16
lot of good. I know I've grown. I am not
37:17
that suffocating guy you threw out of
37:20
the house four and a half days ago. Let
37:21
me tell you that. Alan. And Jake's doing
37:23
fine. I know you were concerned about
37:25
him being around my brother, but it
37:26
turns out Charlie's great with kids. All
37:28
right, last card. Down and dirty.
37:30
Dollar. I'm in. In.
37:36
I'll see the dollar.
37:39
You raise $5 on that. I call
37:45
queens full of nines.
37:51
Hey kid, don't you know what a full
37:54
house is? Yeah. And I also know what a
37:56
And and and I I think that we're going
38:03
to look back on this as as as a new
38:05
beginning for our marriage, a rebirth, a
38:07
renaissance, if you will. Alan, I think
38:09
on one side. We'll put gay stuff.
38:22
Think he's got you, pal. He's bluffing.
38:34
He always pulls his ear when he bluffs.
38:37
By the mighty mouse, you win.
38:41
What the hell is going on here? You said
38:58
Throw a dollar in the pot. What? Hey, we
39:02
Charlie, may I speak with you privately,
39:09
Whose deal is it? Jake, go to bed. I'm
39:13
Hey, where have you guys been? Van Eyes.
39:18
What were you doing in Van Eyes? That's
39:22
What? I got arrested. You're kidding.
39:26
Apparently, I ran a red light at 64 mph.
39:31
And I was in the passenger seat.
39:34
Yes, I was driving. Therefore, you were
39:38
in the passenger seat.
39:40
Anyway, it turns out I had a couple
39:44
unpaid parking tickets. 17.
39:46
Thank you. They arrested you for unpaid
39:51
parking tickets? Well, there was also a
39:53
bench warrant when I didn't show up in
39:55
court. Well, how could you not show up
39:57
in court? Don't they send you a summon?
39:59
Lots of them, but I threw them away.
40:01
I thought they were for jury duty.
40:06
Long story short, when I didn't show up,
40:09
they suspended my license. Then I was in
40:11
the passenger seat.
40:14
So, you were driving with a suspended
40:16
license? Only for a couple of years.
40:18
Luckily though, my license was fine. So,
40:23
when they took him to the police
40:24
station, I followed in the Mercedes. By
40:25
the way, I reset all your radio stations
40:28
I'd like to be alone now, Jake.
40:32
Understandable. You've been through a
40:33
lot. By the way, if you need anyone to
40:35
drive you to the movies or the mall or
40:38
strip club, I'm available.
40:39
Appreciate it. And you can just relax in
40:42
the passenger seat like I did earlier
40:44
All right. I put Jake to bed. I folded
40:50
the laundry. I put the groceries away.
40:52
Guilt thing doesn't work on me, Alan.
40:55
Yeah, well, that's all I got. I'll be
40:57
back in a little while. Where are you
40:59
going? Oh, I have to bring the garbage
41:01
cans back in. Today wasn't garbage day.
41:03
Oh, no, not here. At Judith's. At
41:05
Alan, your wife threw you out. Yeah,
41:10
well, that doesn't mean she doesn't need
41:12
me. Yeah, it kind of does.
41:14
Well, look, we're still married. It's
41:18
still my house, and she still counts on
41:21
me to do a few chores. It It's good. It
41:23
leaves the door open for, you know,
41:25
I see. So, how do you lift those garbage
41:29
cans without a spine?
41:32
What are you watching?
41:50
I'm watching a movie. And you're not
41:52
supposed to be watching anything. Oh,
41:55
yeah. Is that guy a good guy or a bad
41:57
guy? Good guy. And you're not supposed
42:00
to be watching TV. I know.
42:03
Is that his girlfriend? Ex-girlfriend.
42:10
But he still loves her, right? I'm not
42:13
going to walk you through the whole
42:15
Who's that guy? That's the guy who's in
42:28
jail with and told him where the money
42:30
was heading. All right.
42:32
Hey, you're being punished. No TV. I
42:35
What the hell is going on,
42:41
Hey, I'm watching that. What part of no
42:51
TV didn't you understand?
42:53
Jake. It was on when I came in.
43:29
Yeah, right. What did I tell you about
43:34
leaving juice boxes on my piano? How do
43:37
you know it's mine?
43:39
Oh, come on. Who else around here drinks
43:42
Transylvania goofy juice?
43:45
And another thing, were you on the deck
43:51
feeding the seagulls again? Sorry, I
43:53
Okay, we need to talk.
43:58
Love you, Uncle Charlie.
44:02
Look, we don't feed the seagulls because
44:05
you can't get rid of them. And we don't
44:07
leave the doors and windows open because
44:09
we get all kinds of bugs and crap flying
44:10
in the house. Okay. No, no, no. Don't
44:12
don't don't just say okay. This is not
44:14
the grown-up telling the kid what to do.
44:16
This is just two guys agreeing how to
44:18
live together. Are we cool? Yeah. Cool.
44:19
what you got there? Just a little bread.
44:26
Please tell me you're not feeding the
44:29
Man, did you let another one of those
44:38
big flappy bastards in the house?
44:39
You have to put it all in the swear jar.
44:42
You some bastards. Smart. Poke the bear.
44:43
I'm telling you, Jake, this is the last.
44:48
I got to get Gail out of here before I
44:59
do something I'm going to regret. You
45:01
know, after I thoroughly enjoy it.
45:03
Just tell her to leave. I can't do that.
45:07
She's Chelsea's best friend. And they
45:09
were college roommates. Really?
45:11
You think they experimented?
45:15
I got to figure out a way to get Gail to
45:25
leave on her own. You got the perfect
45:27
tool for the job. What are you talking
45:29
about? The one tool that's guaranteed to
45:31
drive any woman out of your house.
45:34
Oh, look. It's an Allen wrench.
45:40
What was that about? Nothing. Nothing. I
45:46
was just telling Burda that maybe I was
45:49
wrong about you not having a shot with
45:51
Gail. Why did you say something? Did she
45:52
Charlie. No way, Alan. I really think
46:30
you need to wake up now.
46:34
Chelsea's sleeping perhaps, but not
46:38
What the hell is your problem?
46:45
What happened? I don't know.
46:53
What the hell do you know, Alan? I know.
47:00
We're in a strange woman's bed together.
47:03
Let's get the hell out of here. Good
47:17
Do you remember anything? Well, I
47:23
remember we were in Pavlos. Oh, yeah.
47:25
Yeah. Yeah. You were hitting on some
47:27
You don't remember how I did it. Focus.
47:32
Okay. Right. Right. I I I think there
47:35
was something about a trailer in Sun
47:36
Valley. Are we in Idaho?
47:38
No mountains, no snow.
47:43
Why are you wearing my underwear?
47:48
Why are you wearing mine? Oh, boy.
47:50
Let's just go. Should we leave her a
47:56
little note? What? You know, thank you.
47:58
Maybe my phone number. Are you crazy?
48:01
Just keep moving. But she's cute and I'm
48:03
going to need a plus one for your
48:05
wedding. Oh my god, my wedding. You're
48:06
right. It could be awkward. You are a
48:08
misogynist. You are a mistake.
48:11
You are a What are we up to? N. Thank
48:15
you. Uh, you are a necroiliac.
48:20
She was drunk, not dead. I challenge
48:24
Okay, fine. You're a narcissist. Better.
48:32
You are a Nancy boy.
48:36
You are a parasite. Not your turn.
48:53
Hello. Oh, hey Judith. What's up?
48:56
What do you mean? What happened with
49:00
Jake? We had a nice weekend. Well, we
49:01
went driving to the movies. Um, ice
49:04
cream. Quack. Rectal. Suck one.
49:06
I never got my pee. All you do is pee.
49:09
What? What? Nothing. Little little word
49:14
game, you know. Exercise the brain.
49:16
Twit. Turd burglar.
49:18
Judith. I don't know what Jake's problem
49:21
is. We had a terrific weekend.
49:23
Jake says he doesn't want to come here
49:28
anymore. Really? Why?
49:30
I know it. Did he say why?
49:33
Charlie and I don't bicker.
49:36
I mean, no more than any other couple
49:39
Right. Right. Oh. Oh. Oh. You are a
49:47
That's E, not you. Learn to spell.
49:52
Look, I don't know what to tell you.
49:57
He's a teenager. He'll get over it.
49:59
Okay. Okay. Bye-bye. Well, I hope you're
50:02
happy. I haven't been happy in 7 years.
50:05
For your information, I will not have
50:09
been here 7 years until next fall. Oh,
50:10
good to know. Circle the date on the
50:13
calendar so I know when to hang myself.
50:15
Haha, funny. It's because of you. Jake
50:17
doesn't want to come here anymore.
50:19
Great. Tell me what I did so I can do it
50:21
You are such a What are we up to?
50:26
You are a varmint. Yeah, well, you are a
50:31
You're calling me a vagina? No, no, no,
50:41
no, no, no. That's too good for you.
50:43
You know, for some women, this could be
50:52
considered a hostile work environment.
50:54
Uncle Charlie, what you hungry?
51:02
Cuz if you are, we could go get
51:07
something to eat. And I'll even drive.
51:09
Jake, I'm sleeping.
51:13
You know, you can nap in the car. I just
51:20
got to have an adult with me. They don't
51:22
have to be conscious.
51:24
I'm not hungry. Okay, fine.
51:26
You want to go see a movie? Cuz if you
51:33
maybe after your nap.
51:37
Crap. Now I'm awake. Great. You hungry?
51:45
Can't I at least back it out? No. Come
51:51
on. Nothing's going to happen. Look, you
51:54
want to eat or not? Fine. What if we
51:57
went to an empty parking lot? Could I
52:00
drive it then? Damn it, Jake. How many
52:01
times I got to tell you?
52:03
What was that? I don't know. Sounds like
52:08
you ran over a cat.
