"Whoa, whoa, whoa." "What is this?" " Where's my soft-boiled egg?" " I scrambled it." "It's good for you to try new things." "I don't want to try new things." "You can't just spring this on me." "I have bad news, Manny." "This is not the biggest curveball... that life is going to throw at you." "Buddy, don't close yourself off from new things." "I ever tell you the story about me and crab cakes?" " Thought I didn't like them." "Tried them." "Love them." " Wow." "Are the movie rights available for that one?"

"Then can I be sent to my room?" "No, 'cause we're having some fun family time." "We're gonna spend this beautiful afternoon outside... in the fresh air getting some exercise, okay?" "Pitch it, Phil." " Oh, well." " That's the game." "What do you mean?" "We just started." "That was our only ball." "So what?" "The game's over just because you're afraid of stupid Mr. Kleezak?" "Yep." "I'm not going over there." "That was fun." "If Hannibal Lecter and Freddy Krueger had a love child... he would be afraid of our next door neighbor." "I don't have a mean thing to say about anyone... but Mr. Kleezak is... not a nice person." "Easy, honey." " [ Mitchell ] Hey, Haley." " Oh, hey, Uncle Mitchell." "Hey, is your mom home?"

" You being smart?" " You mean in school?" "Well, I do okay." "My teacher says I get distracted." " Why do you have that tube in your nose?" " For fun." "Really?" "Can I try?" " It's oxygen." " We have that in our house, but we don't need tanks." "Oh, for God's sake." "Just get your ball." "Okay." "[ Inhales Deeply ]" "Oh, my God." "I was watching the news... and another flock of birds fell out of the sky." "Dead." "What is happening?" "Sweetie, you gotta stop watching the news." "That's your big solution?" "Embrace ignorance?" "What are you two arguing about?" "Never mind." "I don't wanna know." " Oh." " Be back in a couple hours." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Where are you going?" "To my friend Walt's house to watch High Noon." "Ooh, I love westerns." "The bloodier the better." "That's my favorite type of movie." "That and anything set against the backdrop of competitive cheerleading." "Is Walt the one who's always skateboarding?" "No." "Where would he put his oxygen tank?" "Okay." "Now I'm really confused." "[ Chuckling ] You sound like Walt." "He gets confused a lot." "It's hilarious." "Wait." "Are we talking about Mr. Kleezak?" "Yeah." "I went over to his house to get my ball, and we've been hanging out." "You were in Mr. Kleezak's house?" " Luke, that is not okay." " Why not?" "He's really nice." "And funny." "Listen to this joke." "Okay." "Two crabs walk into a bar" " Phil, this is not good." " Honey, don't jump to conclusions." " Let him finish the joke." " And one of them has a limp." " Uh-huh." " You may not go back to that man's house." " Why not?" " Because he's weird." " And not very nice." " Yeah." " That's what you said about my friend Oliver." " Oliver." "The Oliver who almost burned down our garage?" "He likes to melt stuff!" "Like you're so perfect." "Luke, I'm sorry, but your mother and I just aren't comfortable with this." "That's so unfair!" "You don't even know him 'cause you're too afraid to talk to him." "Buddy, we're just looking out for you." "You never like any of my friends!" "[ Sighs ]" " We're doing the right thing." " Absolutely." " Aren't we?" " I don't know." "I mean, he makes a point." "We don't know the man." "And little kids can be friends with old people, right?" "Of course they can." "There's tons of examples." "Up, um, Gran Torino, True Grit." "Cartoon, kills himself, she loses an arm." " We've gotta go talk to that guy." " Now?" " Yeah." " It's so dark." "Okay." "So the numbers are by the phone." "There's food in the fridge." "I just changed her diaper." "So all you need to do is put her down in about half hour... and not let a serial killer in the front door." " Well, what if he's cute?" " Well, then save him for us." "[ Laughing ]" " Nobody in, nobody out." " No." "Oh, we're gonna be totally fine." "You just go, get your gay on." "Oh, it is on like Donkey Kong." "Or clearly it's not on yet." "But it will be." "So, okay." "Come on." "Let's go." "I'm telling you, kid, this is a concert you're never gonna forget." "Greatest music in the world." "Wait a minute." "What's this?" " What do you mean?" " What are we seeing?" "The symphony." "The Four Seasons." "I thought we were seeing Frankie Valli  the 4 Seasons." " No." "It's Vivaldi." " Oh, crap." "You mean nothing but instruments?" "I'm outta here." " No, you're not out." "You're in." " I hate this kind of music." "Jay, you always do that." "Every time we try something new, your first reaction is always no." "I'm old enough to know what I like and what I don't like." " What about the crab cakes?" " That was a fluke." "And I can't slather that boring music in tartar sauce." "So I have to try new things- like scrambled eggs- but you don't have to?" "You see what you're doing?" "You're tearing this family apart!" "Take it down a notch." "You two go in, have a great time." " I'll see you later." " What are you going to do?" "I'm gonna walk like a man, fast as I can, to that bar over there." "And if you knew Frankie Valli, you'd be cracking up right now." "It's okay." "[ Chattering ]" "John Schneider was the one." " John Schneider from Dukes of Hazzard?" " That was your first crush?" "Oh, my God, yes." "Bo Duke." "Delicious." "He was a redneck who drove a car called the General Lee... with a giant Confederate flag on it." "That wasn't a turn off for you?" "I know he was all kinds of wrong, but the heart wants what the heart wants." "Richard Gere." "Oh, my God." "I'll be the officer- don't be a gentleman." " Montgomery Clift." " Who?" "Don't do that, Crispin." "You're not that young." "Anyway, my crush was gay." "At least I had a shot." "You had a shot with Montgomery Clift?" "How old are you?" "[ All Laughing ]" "I will cut you like it was nothing, farm boy." "Oh." "See, I miss this." " Wait." "What about you, Mitchell?" " Um, okay." "I didn't know it was a crush because I was only eight at the time." " I knew when I was eight." " Everyone knew when you were eight." "Longines, get up." "We're switching seats."

"What" " What" " What are you doing here?" "Oh, um, our son, Luke, told us that you invited him over here to watch movies." "And I'm sure you could understand why we would be concerned about that." " No." " Phil." " You're doing great." " Honey" "What, are you saying that I'm some kind of pervert?" " No!" " Probably not." "Look, I didn't ask him to come over here." "I was minding my own business, like you should be." "Okay." "But in all fairness, our son is our business." "Well, then keep him." " And keep your daughter from driving into my garbage cans." " Uh" "And keep your blinds closed when you're doing your little sexy dance." "Oh, God." "He's seen my sexy dance." "So I'm 12 years old." "I'm staying overnight at my best friend Jim's house." " Neither of us want to go to sleep." " I know where this is going." " You're better than that, Crispin."

"Justin, more booze!" "Oh!" "[ Cameron ] Haley!" "Hi." "Is everything okay?" " Yeah." "Why?" " Because I just saw a man walk through the living room." "What?" "Where are you?" "I can see through the camera on the computer." "You're spying on me?" "Oh, my God." "Oh, my God." "That is so lame." "Look, I don't know what you think you saw- maybe the TV or the reflection." "Or maybe you think that my body is just shaped like a boy, like I don't have hips or something." "No, no, no, no." "You have a darling figure." " I was just concerned that" " That hurts so much." "This is the kind of thing that I expect from my mother, but not from my cool uncle." " So, thank you for all of your trust." " Okay, um, sorry." "Sorry." "[ Beeps ]" "[ Sighs ] Unbelievable."
