"Damn." "I don't believe it." "What?" " She's here." " My ex-wife?" "No!" "It's Chelsea." "She's with that Brad guy." "So, what do we do?" "Do we say hello?" "No." "We get the hell out of here." "Charlie?" "Look who's here!" "Alan, Chelsea's here!" " You guys remember Brad." " How's it going?" "Good." "Great!" "Looking forward to the movie." "I'm surprised."

"People grieve in different ways, Alan." "And the stripper was already married, so no harm, no foul." "Everybody's got somebody but me." "Hello?" "I'm not with anyone, either." "Hello?" "You're a big loser that says "Hello"" " I wonder if she's slept with him yet." " Don't go there." "Don't punish yourself." "If she hasn't already, I'll bet you she does tonight." "Okay, punish yourself." "What man's gonna sit through a three-hour gay French flick unless he figures he's got a shot at getting laid?" "You didn't even give that movie a chance." "I'll bet you right now he's driving her back to his place." "They're talking about the movie." "He'll make up some crap about how it made him cry." "Then he'll ask her in for a cup of coffee, which he'll turn into a glass of wine." "One thing leads to another, and before you know it, he's got her in the bathtub running like a jet ski."

"Great, they're kissing." "Good thing he doesn't know where her mouth has been." "Wait a minute." "He's getting back in his car." "And there he goes." "Well, denied, Mr. Greenpeace Sissy Pants!" "There." "You feel better?" "Can we go home?" "I want to make sure she gets inside okay." "You know, there's a soft side to you that I just applaud."

"We'll hoof it." "What, I'm supposed to leave my car abandoned on the side of the road?" " What if somebody tries to steal it?" " Good thinking." "Leave the keys, gas money, and a thank-you note."

"Have you two...?" "Wipe that smile off your face." "You wipe it off." "You're gonna have to do better than that." "One question." "What was with the mustache?" "When I'm out with Alan, I don't like people to recognize me." "They are doing it on the couch." "So what's the deal with Uncle Charlie and Chelsea?" "Are they back together, or was that just a booty call?" "What do you know about booty calls?" "In theory, everything." "Crap." "What?" "Just a little disappointed." "I saw Chelsea's car outside." "I didn't see yours." "She spent the night, but are they back together or just scratching the old itch?" "What do you know about the old itch?" "It's intercourse, Dad." "Why do we play these games?" " Good morning, all." " Morning." "What?" "Come on." "Give." "There's nothing to give." "She came by, said she misses me, spent the night." " So is she moving back in?" " Is the wedding back on?" "Or was it just making the beast with two backs?" "What is wrong with you?" "!" "I'm at an awkward age." " Morning, everyone." " Morning." "Coffee?" "I have to get home and change for work." " Can we talk?" " Sure." "That's never good." " How do you know?" " That's what Mom said to you." "So I'm thinking, you grab some things from your dad's for tonight, and then we move all of your stuff back this weekend." "I'm not coming back tonight." "Why not?" "Last night was good, right?" "It was great, but it doesn't solve our problems." "It sure solved mine." "It's not that I don't love you, but I'm still not sure that we have a future together." "You're really freaking me out here." "I've gotta go." "Come on." "Wait." "I found your mustache." "Where was it?" "Where do you think it was?" "It was stuck to my ass." "Feel like talking?" "I do not." "Understandable." "You gotta admit you're in a better place now than you were this time last night." "24 hours ago, the woman you love was on a date with another man." "But presto-change-o, she wound up spending the night with you." "Of course, come the morning, once again, she dropped you like a lead turd." "Sorry." "You didn't wanna talk." "Me, I'm just the opposite." "When I get my heart broken, I have to talk." "You cannot shut me up." "Sorry." "I've tried to be the strong, silent type, but... it's just not who I am." "I mean..." "Not to mention there's physical manifestations to bottling up your feelings." "I mean, constipation, migraines." "Or it goes the other way:" "gas, diarrhea." "You just cannot predict it." "It's kind of an emotional crapshoot." "Crapshoot." "That just came to me, right off the top of my head." "Got it." "But you are lucky." "You've got your music to express your feelings." "You could play the blues, for instance." "My baby done left me." "She ain't coming back." " What's going on?" " I'm smothering your daddy." "I'm just saying it seems like every time it's my turn to pick up the crap, he's got the runs." "Well, stop feeding him Chili." " Are you looking for Chelsea?" " No, he came to see two old queens walking a dog." "Who are you calling a queen, Elizabeth?" "She's not here, Charlie." "She went to dinner with that Brad guy." " You want to come in, have a beer?" " I don't want to bother you guys." "Don't be silly." "Come on." "Okay, thanks." "You had to tell him she's with Brad?" "What, I'm supposed to lie?" "No, but you can dummy up." "Look at the poor bastard." "I'm sorry." "I wasn't thinking." ""I wasn't thinking. " That should be your middle name." "Don't be getting in my face when I'm holding a bag of poop." "I'll grab some brews." "Chelsea told me about last night." "I don't understand it, Tom." "I thought we were back together." "Yeah, well, you can't make sense out of a woman." "They're like beautiful puzzles with missing pieces, or a great book with no ending, or like my old man used to say, "They're all friggin' nuts"" "I don't know what to do." "Should I leave her alone?" "Should I pursue her?" "If I might chime in." "I would say that stopping by unannounced, with some liquor store flowers, sends up a rather desperate flare." "I know." "I just couldn't sit home and do nothing." "I keep turning it over in my mind." "What did I do wrong?" "What could I have done differently?" "Man, how many times did I ask myself that question when I was married?" "Me, too." "What have we got between two of us..." "something like 80 years of marriage?" "Let's see..." "I was with Beth for 38, and you were with Martha for 40, 41..." "I didn't need you to actually do the math." "Don't bark at me." "I'll beat the snot out of you." "Bring it on, mister." "Maybe I should go." "No, sit down." "Finish your beer." "We're just sparring." "I love this broken-down son of a bitch." "Oh, for God's sake, don't gay it up in front of company." "Now you listen to me, young man, in the final analysis, it doesn't matter what you did or didn't do." "You want Chelsea back?" "You've got to make her miss you like you did last night." "She's not going to miss you if you're squatting in her living room with those sad-ass petunias." "So, what, I'm supposed to just go about my business hoping that one day she shows up and says, "I'm back"?" "Or you can do like me and Ed did." "Change teams." "A lot easier living with a man than a woman." "Tom and I watch the same TV shows." "We like the same food." "You don't have to leave the room to fart." "You don't have to, but it sure would be a nice idea." "Okay, well, thanks, fellas." "This was real helpful." "We're always here for you." "Thank you." "Don't tell Chelsea I stopped by." "I wouldn't dream of it." "Remember what we told you:" "lay low for a while." " Run silent, run deep." " There you go." "Well, what do you think?" "Watch Sports Center and then fool around a little?" "You... you need to take a Viagra?" "You're my Viagra, baby." "That's so sweet." "Just for that, you can hold the remote." "Sorry." "Didn't mean to disturb you." "Just grabbing a water." "No, no, no, it's fine." "Come on." "Join me." "Really?" "Yeah, sit down." "Listen..." "I want to apologize for..." "you know..." "Trying to kill me with a pillow?" "It was horseplay." "Don't make a big thing about it." "What I'm saying is that I know you were trying to cheer me up, and I appreciate it." "Thank you." "I realize that I give you a hard time about living here, but frankly, it's probably a good thing to... have you around." "That means so much to hear you say that." "Well..." "I do..." "I do love you, buddy." "And I love you, too." "I know, I know." "I don't want this moment to ever end." "Okay." "I mean it." "I am not letting go." "Well, you're gonna have to, 'cause it's starting to get a little weird." "We don't need women." "We've got each other." "All right, you brought this on yourself." "Don't worry." "I'll wait for you on the other side."
