"Look, I was coming over to ask, what would you and katherine think about going camping?" "Oh, man, I love camping." "When?" "Well, my schedule gets busy on the 15th, so it would have to be before then." "I don't know, this weekend?" "Oh, I'm definitely up for it." "Uh, I'm not sure if katherine will be." "Well, if she doesn't go, then edie won't go, and... well, I guess if katherine knows another girl's coming, maybe I can convince her." "Good." "Tell her the mfolk will do all the hard work-- build the fires, dig the latrines." "Hey, I wouldn't mention that, uh, latrine part until we're actually at the campsite." "that's a good point." "I'll, uh, dig my gear out tonight." " It's gonna be fun." " Yeah." "this is gonna be fun." "My, that's a butiful pen." "Is it a montblanc?" "Uh, yeah." "Yeah, I've always wanted one."

"They've added 40 people to their guest lis damn it.I only planned for a hundred." "W-we're gonna need tables." "Relax." "They always pull this crap." "So I called the rental company and had 'em put a few extras on the truck." "We'll be fine." " Oh, thank god." " But you know what?" "We can tell the chamber people that because it was so last-minute, we had to bump our fee by 30%." "I like the way you think." "What would we do without him?" "Hmm, yes." "He's worth every penny you pay him." "By the way... how many pennies is that?" "I'm not discussing andrew's salary with you." "It's none of your business." "you're right." "It's not." "So... how much?" "Andrew moved into a new home." "I simply gave him a cost of living increase." "The cost of living in a home with silver pens and rare french wines?" "Honey, please don't do this." "Oh, my god." "Is he making more than me?" "Orson, drop it." "I am not telling you how much andrew makes." "I'd be happy to give you that information, sir." "Am I speaking to the account holder?" "No, I'm her... business partner." "Very well." "Account number?" "Yes." "Um, 8-5-9-7-3." "Name on the account?" "Van deamp's old-fashioned foods." "And the password?" "Password?" "For security purses." "Yes." "Of course." "It's, um... uh, you know... uh, it's--it's completely slipped my mind." "It's the name of her childhood pet." "Right." " fluffy." " Nope." "That's not it." " Fido?" " No." "Spot?" "Rover?" "Mittens?" "Sorry, sir." "Uh, marmaduke." "Old yeller." "I cannot give out y information without the password, which you obviously don't know." "Then ask me a different question." "How about her date of birth?" "Her social security number?" "Good-bye, sir." "How about her real hr color?" "Trust me, it's not what you think it is." "if you're looking to get fed, it's gonna be a while." "No, dad called a family meeting." "Yeah, mom, he said it's about the restaurant." "Oh, boy." "I think I know what this is about." "Kids, things have been tough down at the restaurant, and I think your dad has finally decided to sell it." " I know." " Is he gonna be okay?" "I don't knowthat's why we all have to be really supportive." "Are you with me?" "Hey, guys." "Good." "You're all here." " I love you, daddy." " not yet." "So..." "I wanted to talk to you all about our pizzeria." "Just know we're 100% behind you." "That means a lot, 'cause this was a really rough day for me." "I had to let all our employees go." "So starting tomorrow... you kids are my new waitstaff." "Tom, what the hell are you talking about?" "I got it all worked out." "You and I will handle the days, and the kids will join us after school and on the weekends." "Um, at the risk of sounding spoiled... no." "Come on!" "It'll be fantastic." "We'll love working tether." "Why?" "We don't even like living together." "Look, labor is our number one cost." "If we can eliminate it, we'll start making a profit again." "What, you're not even gonna pay us?" "I'm 9!" "Is that even legal?" "I think so." "But just to be safe, you're now5." "Happy birthday!" "Mom, please do something." "I thought maybe after our conversation today, you'd realize it's time to pack it in." "I have got to do this.I can't walk away from that place until I have done everything that I can possibly think of." "But having the kids work there?" "You said that you were behind me 100%." "Really?" "That doesn't sound like me." " Lynette..." " okay." "Fine." "Kids, we are goi to support your father by working in his restaurant." "you've got to be kidding me." "Just so you know, 30 years from now, when you and dad are old and feeble-- you're putting us in the cheapest nursing home you can find." "Yeah, I got it." "Mrs. Solis, I didn't realize you were here." "I've got your bracelet l polished and ready for a night on the town." "Oh, put it on and have a good time." "Turns out t m nogonna be able to afford it right now... unless you can help me out on the price." "what did you have in mind?" "You give it to me, and then call your insurance and say it was stolen?" "I didn't think so." "I'm really sorry about the bracelet, mrs." "Solis." "Perhaps I can showou something a bit less expensive." "Maybe some, uh, earrings-- oh, will you excuse me a minute?" "Get in here!" "I got a real shockeroo for you!" "You are not gonna believe this!" "Brad!" "Uh, what's going on?" "He just stopped by with great news." "I'm getting that bonus after all." "really?" "Well, I went to our C.F.O.," "And I told him it just didn't seem fair that my right-hand man should go unrewarded." "Isn't that great?" "What kind of guy does that?" "oh, I think I know the kind." "So, brad... what sort of bonus are weooking at?" "How does 20 grand sound?" "Like a great jumping off point." "Gaby." "Oh, honey, you heard maria the other night." "Your hard work is what's brought them so much closer." "Pay no attention to my wife." "20 grand is a fantastic bonus." "You know, now that I hear the number out loud, it does seem a little low, after all you've done." "25 is probably more fair." "Oh, brad." "Come on." "Saving a marriage?" "You can't put a price on that... at least not a small one." "Gaby, will you knock it off?" "You're being rude." "You're right." "I'm sorry." "It's just--I really wanted to buy this bracelet I saw today downtown in this little jewelry shop." "You know the place, honey." "It's right next to the, lexington tel." "30!" "30000." " Are you sure?" " Yes!" "You deserve it." "You both do." "I don't know what to say." "You're the only one getting a bonus, so what I think might be best is if we all agreed not to say anything." "Do we all agree?" "Absolutely." "now if you'll excuse me, I'll leave you two to siness." "All this negotiating just goes right over my head." "Thunder mcfadden." "what a hoot." "What's that?" "Oh,it's my porn name." "A friend sent me an e-mail." "You take the name of your childhood pet and the street you grew up on,and voil?" "That's the name you'd use if you were a porn star." "So I'm thunder mcfadden." "My buddy here is snoop windemere." "hey,who would you be?" "Orson,I'm preparing a buffet for 200." "I don't have time to explore my hypothetical career in the adult film industry." "Fine." "But you should know that's why people find you so rigid, because you can never just let go and have fun." "coco saugatuck." "Happy now?" "Sure am." "Thanks,hon." "Of course it could just as easily be munchy cedarhurst." "What?" "Or taffy swallow." "We moved around a lot and had three dogs." "Bree,focus." "It has to be your favorite pet." "Like if I asked you,"what's your childhood pet?"" "Thiss the one you'd say." "Well,I didn't really have a favorite." "I loved them all equally." "Oh,please." "If coco,taffy and munchy were in a burning building and you could only save on." "orson,why are you being so morbid?" "No." "I-I just want to know your porn name." "Okay,fine." "If I had to pick a favorite,I guess it would be munchy." "she was a bit rambunctious." "Father sent her to a farm so she'd have room to run." "I cried for weeks and weeks." "Munchy,huh?" "This was fun." "All right,that's a large mushroom pepperoni pizza and two salads." "I'll get tt started." " Tom,I got need a large-- - large pep/mush at table nine." "I'm way ahead of you." "Thanks." "And do you have the calzones for table three?" "Oh,crap." "sweetie,I need two dinner salads." "What's the matter?" "Parker said the only reason you had me make salads is because it's a job for babies." "Well,clearly,that's not true because you're n a baby." "You're 15,remember?" "Also,I can't find my band-aid." "Okay,you fill water glasses." "I'll make the salads." "Hey,mom?" "Yeah?" "This is for table five." "Oh,thanks." "you didn't give them enough change." "Yeah,I know." "I figured this out." "You can short people 1%,and they won't even notice." "If they got a buzz on,3%." "Okay,you make the salads." "I'll handle the register." "dude,back off." "That's my table." "Not anymore." "You can take the 4-top of old farts." "No way." "I-- what's going on?" "He took my table." "So?" "Take another one." "What's the difference?" "Well,since I'm the only one here who c wait on that table without knocking over a glass with my pants, how about I take it?" "You handle the cash register." "You bus tables." "Go on." "Welllook at this." "Everybody's happy." "Things are running smoothly." "Don't worry." "I'm not gonna say,"I told you so."" "Katherine said you wanted to talk to me." "Yeah." "Come on in." "you know,you could have just called." "You don't have to use her as an intermediary." "Really?" "I thought we were using katherine for all sorts of things-- sending messages,raising our kid." "I don't see what the big deal is." "I have to work,and she has some free time." "It's better for everybody." "Well,it's not better for me,especially when I'm not even told about it." "Fine." "Here I am telling you." "I have to work friday,so katherine will be picking M.J.Up from school." "No." "What do you mean,"no"?" "Let me remind you,I have custody on fridays." "Hey,thanks." "Let me remind you that the reason I agreed to custody is so our son could spend time with his father." "You have a problem with katherine?" "No,she's a peach,but she's not the one that dragged me to court to hammer out some custody agreement." "Now if you'd like,we can go back, and the judge can explain to you the difference between you and your girlfriend." "Okay,you listen to me." "Mommy?" "Are you guys fighting?" "No,sweetie." "We are just trying to figure out what is best for you." "aren't we?" "I'll see you friday,buddy." "Looks like I'll be picking you up from school." "Andrew makes twice as much as me?" "Who told you that?" "A little bird or should I say a little dog named munchy?" "That's why you wanted to know the names of my pets?" "Orson hodge,you are shameful." "What's shameful is how much you're paying him." "Andrew has been with me since I launched the company." "He runs every aspect of the business." "He deserves what he's making." "But I am your husband,for crying out loud." "Yes,orson,we're all aware of how you got the job." "You know what the real travesty is?" "I'm more educated than the lot of you." "I went to grad school." "I'm a dentist." "No,you were a dentist." "Now you're a caterer,and you're paid fairly based on your expertise and contribution." "Oh,this is not about money,bree." "It's about value." "And you're saying I'm wortess." "No,I'm just saying you're worth..." "less." "I'm sorry,honey." "I'm just being honest." "Very well." "Oh,since we're being honest,munchy didn't go to any farm." "That kids when they just had their pets gassed." "You got a minute?" "I have a really big favor to ask you." "Uh,sure." "I need a little detective work done." "It's about bradley." "so... what's going on?" "I'm gonna buy a golf club." "A baball bat would be cheaper." "Maybe I should let you finish." "See,I don't know anything about golf clubs,but I know carlos does, so I was hoping you guys could snoop around and find out what kind of driver brad wants." "Oh,it's a gift." "Sure,yeah." "We'd love to help out." "so what's the occasion?" "No occasion." "I just want to thank him for being a wonderful husband." "Well,don't spend too much." "why don't you just get him a card?" "So our marriage counselor said we should get each other little gifts now and then to keep things spontaneous." "Oh,you're in counseling." "That's great." "We were,but we stopped." "We don't need it anymore." "Are you sure about that?" "Yeah." "Brad and I are solid." "Well,ice is solidtoo,until it cracks and you're drowning in freezing water." "I'd stay in counseling if I were yo gaby,I'm home!" "Can you come in here for a minute?" "brad gives me a huge bonus and you repay him by telling his wife that they need marriage counseling?" "I'm sorry." "I think they do." "Their marriage is none of your business." "Besides,I think they're a very happy couple." "Who?" "Him and maria or him and the blonde I saw him kissing yesterday?" "What?" "No way!" "Yeah." "And brad saw me." "Why do you think your bonus jumped from a stuffed chicken breast to 30 grand in a day?" "oh,my god." "This is illegal." "I'm getting a bonus no one else is getting based on blackmail." "You're welcome." "I can't believe you did this." "Well,thank god you came to your senses." "All right,let's get in there and tell her." "No,we can't tell her." "We'd have to give the money back." "Don't we have a moral responsibility to tell her?" "It's like you said-- their marriage is none of our business." "He's the one who's cheating." "If we say anything,it'll just make things worse." "We're the good guys here,carlos." "Really?" "'Cause it sure doesn't feel like it." "Susan,you got our message." "Yes,and imagine my surprise,'cause the last time I talked to mike, he promised me he was picking up M.J.From school." "Oh,mrs." "Nelson had another plumbing emergency." "Apparently this new oat bran diet she's on" "I don't need the details." "I had a long day." "I just want to pick up my kid." "Mommy,we had paninis for dinner." "You want one?" "No,thank you." "Let's go." "But we were gonna make brownies for dessert." "But we can make brownies at home." "The box kind?" "Katherine says those aren't real brownies." "Except when your mommy makes them with love." "good save." "Let's go." "Susan?" "Look,I know you were surprised to find M.J.Here again today, but I really was trying to do you a favor." "Well,I don't need you to do me any favors." "What I need is for everyone to just stick the plan." "Monday,wednesday,friday-- mike watches his son." "He doesn't pawn him off on his girlfriend." "I had a really fun time." "big group coming in." "It is now officially saturday night." "Finally." "oh,great." "They're kids." "1 ate of spaghetti and 15 baskets of free bread." "Stop being such a downer." "We're finally making a go of this place." "All you want to do is complain." "we're taking a break." "N-not now." "We just got a big party." "Good luck with that." "We're outta here." "What's going on here?" "Those kids go our school." "And you know who that big guy is?" "Kevin mcdermott." "The guy called me "jesus" for a year 'cause I wore sandals one day." "If he sees me wearing this,I'll never hear the end of it." "Fine." "Don't wear that apron." "That'S... no,I'm not waiting on a kid who's gonna make fun of me on monday morning." "It's humiliating enough having to work here." "Humiliating?" "Guys,easy." "No,you're-- you're not humiliated when you use the money that we make here to buy your clothes." "Tom,it's fine." "I'll take the table." "No,no,no,no,no,no." "Your mother can't wait on this whole restaurant by herself." "Well,then you do it." "Porter,I'm your father and your boss,and I'm telling you right now to go take that table." "Or what,you're gonna fire me?" "Go for it." "you think this is a joke?" "This is my life!" "Tom!" "You worry about being embarrassed?" "I have put everything I have into this restaurant!" "All right,that's enough!" "Let go of him!" "Let go of him!" "Let go of him!" "Guys?" "I just sat a 1p.P." "Who's taking it?" "I will." "I started getting our accounts in order." "If we're gonna sell this place,we should probably know exactly how much it's worth." "I think this can all wait until morning." "Don't you?" "I just booked us into the brunswick inn for this weekend." "Great." "prepare to be pampered!" "Oh,shoot." "This weekend isn't gonna work." "Mike really wants us to do that camping trip that we've been talking about." "camping?" "Have you met me?" "I figured you were gonna say that." "I just can't blow him off." "This is the only weekend that works for him." "Then you're on your own." "Have fun wiping with leaves." "Oh,edie?" "Please don't tell katherine that you're not coming." "All right?" "Mike really wants her there,and if she hears that u're not going,she won't either." "Will you take me to the brunswick inn next weekend?" "Yes." "Then I won't say a word to katherine." "almost done here,will be back by the 15th." "Dr.H." "When did you two get here?" "Just a minute ago." "They said they have something personal they want to talk to us about." "Oh,really?" "What is it?" "We're pregnant." "I know." "We are so happy." "But that's not all." "See,even though we've only known each other for a short time, your friendship has meant a lot to us, which is why maria feels strongly that you should be the baby's godparents." "Do you hear that,carlos?" "Godparents." "You are such good people,so kindhearted and decent, and that is the kind of influence that we want in our baby's life." "How could we say no?" "I see you got your bracelet after all." "Oh,yeah." "Uh,but I'm not enjoying it as much as I thought I would." "Okay,****" "I'm gonna take a quick shower." "Try not to get any crumbs on the couch." "What's wrong?" "It's peanut butter,no crusts-- your favorite." "I want a panini." "I don't know how to make paninis." "It's just turkey and cese." "Do we have any provolone?" "No,we do not have any provolone." "Can we borrow some from katherine?" "Absolutely not." "In this house,we do not eat pretentious cheeses." "We eat honest american peanut butter."
