So, Trav asks me if I thought it was a problem
that all we do on the weekends is sit around and drink wine.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, wait.
Are we only drinking on the weekends now?
Because we need to vote on that. Guys?
No!
Wow, democracy works.
But still, maybe we shouldn't just sit with our wine glasses in our hands,
doing nothing, you know? So...
I got us these!
Now our hands are free to do stuff.
But I liked holding my glass.
I feel like an animal.
Take it off! Hate it.
Wait. What if we think of these necklaces as our on deck circle?
That way we don't have to get up so much.
I don't like getting up.
Cheers, everyone.
Wow. That's some pretty serious PDA for you.
What can I say? You bring it out in me.
Let me ask you something.
When we first met, did you see us falling in love?
No.
Yes?
All I wanna do is make you happy.
Really? Maybe tonight you'll...
It's not about sex, babe.
But I want you to try to keep listening.
I'll try my best.
Promise me that we'll always surprise each other.
All I really want is a life
full of surprises.
You know what would be a huge surprise,
is if you didn't mess with these kids right now.
Right? Hey, fellas,
I'm trying to talk to my man here,
so could you take that thrashing down to the park?
Whatever, lady.
Hey, none of you are gonna have girlfriends
unless you cut your hair and take a shower!
That's not true.
When I was younger I was crazy about dirty long hairs. Now, where were we?
- Surprises. - Right.
Love them, want them. Lock it down.
Okay, without Laurie or Bobby here,
it's just not as cramped or stupid or noisy.
I'll just say it. I think this should be the gang.
Too mean, babe.
I know.
I think this should be the gang.
I heard that!
Good.
Nothing on two legs should walk that loud.
It's just hard to walk with this stupid ankle monitor.
Seriously, Jules, this is why
you shouldn't have hassled those skateboarders.
Last month I was in real need of a spiritual, soul-cleansing journey.
But, of course, I didn't have enough cash to fly to India,
so I just drove north.
It was total Eat Pray Tampa.
Anyway, I let this cute-ish bartender
trade me free drinks for a little action upstairs,
and his ex-wife showed up.
I should have minded my own business, but did I?
Don't care.
Next thing you know, she is kicking me
and I have got this very heel in my hand,
and I am popping her eardrum.
You don't wanna go down that road, honey.
Not a huge worry for me.
I knew you would mess with those skate rats.
You are very predictable.
In what way?
In every way?
That's not funny.
Honey, we just know how you're going to react in most situations.
- Every situation. - In every situation.
I am not predictable!
- I'm not. - I'm not.
- So, you're only gonna be mad at me? - I am.
Ellie! Stan punched Rosa!
Stanley Torres, you are gonna clean up all of these toys
and then go write Rosa an apology note.
Doubt it.
Okay, let's go take a nap, champ.
No, no, no.
Sharp teeth there, pal.
All right.
That kid.
Feisty little fella, isn't he?
No.
That black eye you had last week, that was from playing tennis?
Sure, sure.
What happened to the couch?
Just say it!
He is a devil baby. I don't know what happened.
He likes to sneak out of our house with a hammer
and smash the neighbours' landscaping lights.
Make me feel better. You always know what to say.
Sweetie, this should be the gang.
It totally should.
Hey, buddy-boy!
Dad! To what do I owe
the unannounced-didn't-call-ahead pleasure?
I just came by to check out the new college digs.
It's a two-bedroom house, but the rent is super cheap
because nine guys live here.
I don't even really know most of their names.
I think there's a Steve. Yo, Steve!
- What? - What's up, bro?
Two Steves.
What's that?
That is our homemade greenscreen.
Nice.
You're okay being a nerd, right?
Yeah. Love it.
Hey, I also came by 'cause I want to do you a favour.
Now, every college house needs a pet.
Dad...
I mean, you have a big yard, there's plenty of people around.
I mean, he's gonna love it.
And, brother, there's no better panty dropper than a giant, cuddly horse-dog.
Yeah, we use the greenscreen to bring in the chicas.
Yeah, I don't see the ladies getting all weak-kneed over a green wall.
Whoa, Seabiscuit!
Partner, I stand corrected.
Damn!
I'm not predictable, you say Perhaps it's true
But when you wake Here's what you'll do
Brush your teeth, wash your face
Check your nose, just in case
Eat your breakfast, bacon and eggers
Take your pill so you don't get preggers
Find your mouth guard Check your mail
Work out time, if it's late you bail
Where's your mouth guard? You threw it away
It's all the same, every day
But we don't mind, we're glad to wait 'Cause we all know that right at 8:00
You'll come downstairs Then on our knees, all together
Coffee, please.
It's Jules' slightly longer morning routine song
Yeah!
No singing. I'm just too cranky.
Jules! They sharked your car.
Jellybean, use your words.
Sharked it! Come!
My car got sharked!
Told you.
Bet it was those skate rats.
This is so on!
Three waters.
Jerks.
We need to make sure it's them.
Sorry. I used to get really embarrassed when I would sneeze in public.
Now I've just put a happy noise with it, you know, to own it.
I got the idea from my new shrink.
Honey.
Yeah, he's probably gonna have to go.
Yeah.
No.
Jules, if you get married again, how do you want to be proposed to?
Tom, I don't know.
Yes, you do.
Okay, I want it to look something like it was out of a fairy tale,
and I want everyone I love to be there.
And I wanna do all the talking,
because when it comes to love, I'm a street rapping poet, yo.
Wait, why are you asking me?
Does he wanna know?
No.
We should hang out more together, just the two of us.
Raise your hand if you just built a hot tub.
I gonna have to throw my "too creepy" flag.
I knew it when I said it.
You know, I used to think that Tom was secretly gay.
That's because you think all single men over the age of 35 are secretly gay.
When we met, I was over 35 and single. Did you think I was gay?
Hello?
Jules, they're getting up.
Check for guilt in their eyes.
I think I saw guilt. Did you?
I don't know. I just got mesmerized by their greasy hair. I love it!
- Right? I wish I was in high school. - Me, too.
This should be the gang.
- What? - Nothing.
Poor old Andy and Ellie, mostly Ellie.
Afraid of your own son.
- We're not afraid of Stan. - No.
Then why are you whispering?
- It's sexy. - It's sexy.
Look at this cute picture that Stan made. What is that?
- That's a sunflower. - Little bunny rabbit.
It's a what?
It's a rabbit sun... Rabbit flower.
Really? It looks like a flesh-eating demon.
- I told you. - Stop it!
Well, if you guys aren't scared of him,
then you won't mind if I just... If I take this off.
- No. - No. Take it.
- We're gonna fix it. - It just needs new tape.
Sometimes it loses stickiness. It's the stickiness, Stan!
Someone is gonna get hit with a hammer.
I got skater boy's address!
Get ready for Operation Revengeance.
Not a word.
Stop being so precisional.
We're going to do something that gorgeous skater boy will never expect.
We are going to TP his house.
All right!
I called you predictable,
but just when I thought you were gonna zig, you zig.
You did not see this coming.
Really? Why do you think everyone here wore black?
Everyone raise your hands.
All right, everybody out.
So you looked in the mirror and thought that looked good?
Yeah.
Stan?
Hey, check it out. I'm gonna keep talking while he drinks water.
- This is Sig, one of my roommates. - Hey, Sig.
That's a pre-shot computer image. I'm over here.
It's all very confusing.
Dad, I'm sorry, but I don't need the dog.
I wish you would have said that right off, 'cause, Trav,
the thing about Dog Travis that he decides where he lives on his own.
And once he's found a nice spot and eaten a shoe, he's home.
Sorry, buddy, nothing I can do.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no! Wait, wait, wait. Hold on.
Come here. Come here, boy. Come on. Come on, boy.
Oh, my God, what are you made of, cement?
And then she was like, "Stay away from my man!"
You know, he is a handful, but he's got spirit.
The spirit of the devil.
I am not gonna say another disparaging thing about Stan.
I love him too much.
I do, too.
I just worry about the future.
Like, how's he gonna turn out? Who is he gonna be like?
Hey, Ellie.
Look, I made him a matching ankle bracelet out of electrical tape.
Separated at birth! What-what? What-what? What-what?
Please, no.
You know, you'd be less mad just by getting naked, right here.
No, no, no, no, not the mouth guard.
Yes. Once the mouth guard is in, this store is closed.
One day I will sleep with you after you've put that vile thing in your mouth.
It's my Everest.
- Now, come here. - Stay back.
- Just come... - I mean it.
- A little bit... - It's going in.
Look, why do you care so much if I think you're predictable?
Because, you dummy, it's like...
It's like you're saying that I'm boring.
But I like boring. That's not the right thing to say.
And now she grabs her robe, and sleeps down the hall.
You think you know me so well, don't you?
I do.
Then turn off the lights, handsome.
Oh, my God, it's really happening.
Yeah.
Please don't make me kiss.
Tom!
- Dad? - No.
You want to do stuff, just the two of us?
- Yeah. - Let's go!
Come on, get up.
You sleep nude!
I'll see you downstairs.
If nerd's the new cool, why are they all asleep at 9:15?
Who cares?
This is beautiful.
Hey, why all the games with getting Dog Travis over here?
Why not just ask Travis to take him?
I guess I can't ask Trav cause I m scared he s gonna say no
And I'll think it's because I've been such a crap father for so long
that he feels he doesn't owe me anything.
He's not the one keeping stupid thoughts like that alive.
- You are. - Yeah, maybe.
Is it weird that we're doing this and we can't see ourselves on the monitor?
Yes.
Don't let go!
Come on! Come on!
I got Stan into his crib.
He's gonna be just like you, isn't he?
Fingers crossed.
Have your moment. Tell me what to expect.
Okay.
If Stan does go down my path,
in the near future there'll be more
screaming, crying, anger, breaking stuff,
getting kicked out of pre-school,
getting kicked out of kindergarten, getting kicked out everywhere,
crashing cars, getting arrested, piercings, drinking and sex.
- When he's 13... - Enough!
Is this karma?
I mean, I'll admit, I'm not always the most
lovely person.
Are you laughing?
Yes.
For shame!
Relax.
You know the main difference between me and Stan?
I had
five different crappy stepfathers.
Stan's got two amazing parents.
What? Whatever, he does.
Look, I think that if you guys just stay in the game,
he's gonna be fine.
Thanks.
Of course, some devil babies are just devil babies.
Sorry, had to say it.
I get that.
Jules?
What are you doing?
You can't come. It's just the two of us.
Get in.
You just lost shotgun.
Damn it!
Revengeance is mine!
- Let's get that hedge over there. - I'll get it.
Tom sleeps nude.
Why would you tell me that?
Well, I want it to be in someone else's head.
- How fun is this? - So fun!
- It's the fuzz! - No!
Scatter!
I want to come clean.
Dog Travis isn't a chick magnet.
Dad, for me, college will never be about girls anyway. So...
Well, you're my son and I love you no matter what.
Wasn't coming out to you.
Just meant that I'm here to learn.
Not 933'-
Well, if you were, I might cry for a minute,
not because I'd be upset about it,
just because I know how hard it'd be for you to admit it to me, and yourself.
It's a little weird how much thought you've put into it.
Sorry. Your mom thinks everyone secretly swings that way
and you know how susceptible my brain is to other people's thoughts.
I do. But it's late. You're probably getting really tired.
You're right, I am.
Anyway, I need to ask you a question
that I probably should have asked you yesterday.
Wait! Both of you wet your hair first.
Just go with it.
I know this is a lot to ask, but could you please take Dog Travis?
Of course, Dad.
Really?
I mean, come on, after all you've done for me?
Come here. I love you.
I'd pay $12 to see that.
Right?
We gotta go pick up Ellie!
What do you think your therapist is gonna think about this?
Who knows? It's only been a couple of months.
I'm still not comfortable enough to stop lying to him about everything.
He thinks I'm 35.
No, he doesn't.
I'm not sure,
but I think there's a chance
that me getting caught here with my ankle monitor
could be considered a third strike, so I'm gonna bolt.
No, no, don't leave me. Prison's great.
You can get those neat teardrop tattoos.
I'll create a diversion for you.
Taser!
Oh, God!
Anybody else out there?
All right, look, Officer, it's a funny story...
Really? I'm all ears.
What?
- Hey, Jules. - Hi there.
Taser.
What's going on?
Those kids didn't shark your car. I did.
I even had Laurie give you this fake address.
Well, then, whose house is this?
It's empty. It's actually your listing.
Yeah. House shows really well at night.
I knew you'd come here and do this.
So that's what this is about, huh?
You just wanted me to look stupid so you could laugh at me again?
No, Jules.
I mean, didn't you say that you wanted a life full of surprises?
And look, everyone you love's here.
And isn't this all kind of...
Isn't this all kind of like a fairy tale?
I mean, when I sent Tom to you in the bar,
isn't that what you told him you wanted?
I thought you wanted to do all the talking.
I'm speechless.
Really? You?
I love you so much.
Will you marry me?
Okay, I'm gonna say yes, so don't get nervous.
I just...
I want to think of a way to say it so you know how happy you make me.
That was pretty good.
I'm not boring, am I?
No. You're a crazy person.
Okay, fan.
Nice. Mountain top.
Okay, this is for our grandkids, so when you propose to me this time,
please try to squeeze out a tear. Okay.
Action!
My dearest Jules.
Yes, my love?
Dude, how often is your mom gonna come over?
Probably more than I'd like.
Damn it.
