- Hey.
- Mm.
That a vampire book? - Mm-hmm.
- Didn't you just watch a vampire movie? I like vampires.
- That is weird.
- What? Give me your hand.
Tell me this doesn't feel weird to you.
- What? - Give me your hand.
- Tell me this doesn't feel weird.
- I'm not touching your penis.
I'm serious, there's something, like, going on.
Oh, wow.
You know what? I bet it probably tastes weird, too.
I'm sure it does.
Good night.
You're shaking the bed again.
All right, you guys.
Come on.
We need to go.
We're late, late, late, late, Mom, daddy's sleeping on the couch again.
- Yeah, ask daddy about that.
- Daddy, daddy, I forgot to feed Norman.
- What? - I need you to feed Norman.
- Okay.
Who's Norman? - Norman.
My fish.
Right.
Okay.
I will feed Norman.
He's a fish.
- Can I ask you something? - Yeah, I'm here for you.
How often do you and Cindy have sex? Is that what this is about? Huh.
I don't know.
You know, we have our ups and downs.
Sometimes we do it a lot, sometimes only three or four times a week.
Really? Yeah.
Oh, you guys having trouble? The other day, I started calculating how many more times Lina and I are gonna do it before we die.
I actually, like, started crunching numbers.
All right.
And how did the numbers look? - Oh.
Pretty bad, huh? - Yeah.
It's just It's like even when we have sex, it's not like real sex, you know? It's like somewhere between, like, pity sex and-and necrophilia.
All right.
I'm gonna solve this for you.
You know how Cindy really loves dancing and I hate dancing 'cause it's a stupid waste of time? But I dance with my wife.
'Cause even though I hate it, I love having sex.
Find out what she's into.
Pretend to like it, no matter how stupid it is.
It's called being sensitive.
Did you move the kids? Good evening.
I want to suck your junk.
Ha, ha, ha.
What's this? This is your fantasy.
Okay, well, first of all, the accent? Not all vampires are from Transylvania.
I want to suck your junk, eh? - What's that? - It's a Canadian vampire.
I can be whatever vampire you want me to be.
Is this seriously supposed to turn me on? Come on.
- We had a quickie a few weeks ago.
- Yeah, and you yelled at me - for not being quick enough.
- Because quickies are supposed to be quick.
I don't understand how you can be, like, into all that fantasy stuff and not interested in the real thing.
Because the fantasy doesn't make me feel like shit every time I don't do one of its porno positions.
What are you talking about? I have four basic positions.
Um Fine.
Si seven.
- Really? Seven? - Yes, seven.
All you do is flip me over and over and over.
It's fun.
I mean, I get it.
You were doing a really cute - thing and I messed it all up.
- I was just Baby, I'm sorry.
It's just the girls they take everything out of me.
And it doesn't help that every time you look at me, I get pregnant.
That's not Always my fault.
- The last one, I wore a condom.
- Yeah, and you screwed it off.
- I didn't screw it off.
- You did screw it off.
- No, I didn't.
Your vagina, like, - Yes, you did.
- ate it and then - Don't blame this on my vagina.
- Well - Look, I'm trying to make everyone happy.
And then at the end of the day, I have to make you happy, too? I - It's just too much.
- Ella hit me! Well, hit her back.
Look Don't you think if there was some magical sex pill that I could take I would? Then let's go magic pill shopping.
I can't have this - conversation with you again.
- I know.
It's the same thing over and over and over.
I don't know what to tell you.
Maybe you should just go and be - with someone else.
- What? You want to split up? No.
Then how am I supposed to go be with someone else? You go be with someone else.
Which one was that? Well, what exactly is she proposing here? I have no idea.
She said that I basically should get my needs met somewhere else.
Well, maybe you should just get a whore.
I think one of my old roommates is an actual whore.
She was cute.
She's probably ruined in her area, - but she is a whore.
- I don't it's not - I don't want a whore.
- I wish Greg would give - me permission to bang a stranger.
- No, you do not.
- Oh, yes, I do.
- No.
Mm-hmm.
I am so tired of sleeping with someone who is old enough to be my father's friend.
Who also happens to be my father's friend, which is totally on me.
Totally on me.
Thank you.
I used to, like, fully turn Lina on, and now I I - I just annoy her.
- Dude, she loves you.
It's like with me and Greg.
I know that he loves me, but I also know that he can't keep up with me.
Did I tell you that he can only do doggy style if he wears a knee brace? - No.
- That's not a sex toy.
Doggy's my jam.
I don't care about your stupid barbeque.
It's my weekend.
Yeah.
Oh, and another thing, tell your screw pal to stop buying my daughter turtles.
I'm her father.
Nobody buys her turtles except me, do you understand? - Baby mama drama.
Oh.
- How is everything working out, you know, for you, divorce-wise? It's a big party.
What? No, but you're getting laid a lot.
At least, you talk about it a lot.
Yeah, and you have a family, huh? You want to know where I spent my last Thanksgiving? At a Panda Express with a dominatrix, all right? Don't try and out-sad me.
I am the king of sad.
- Congratulations.
- Thank you.
What's his problem? He's just so sad because his wife says he can have sex with other people.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
Did you get it in writing? No.
I don't want it in writing.
I just want her.
- I get it.
She's hot, all right? - She is.
Sure.
Those legs, that ass, those nipples that say howdy.
But trust me, man don't let sex ruin what you guys have.
If I could do it all over again I would've just gotten a mistress.
It might've saved my marriage.
That is actually a smart idea.
Excuse me.
- No.
Don't.
- Yes.
Do.
- Don't.
Don't.
- Yes.
- Excuse me.
Hi.
- Yeah.
How can I help you guys? Well, would you be interested in being my friend's mistress? It's for a good cause.
He needs to save his marriage.
And don't worry it's that - friend, not that one.
- A mistress.
- Um, well, what are the hours like? - Oh.
Very honest.
- Funny.
Okay.
- That's very funny.
Russ, this is - I'm Ella.
- Oh, that's my daughter's name.
- Oh, no way.
- Yeah.
- That's a good name.
- It's a great name.
But maybe not so much for a mistress.
'Cause then I'd be, like, inside her and I'm feeling like it's incest.
- That's gross.
- Don't be so old-fashioned.
- You are a buzzkill.
- This is not going well.
I don't - No, it's going so poorly.
- I find you very - attractive, I just don't want - I actually have other tables.
- Yeah, sure you do.
- No, you're released.
Thanks, you guys.
- Of course you do.
Yes, enjoy your other tables.
- Okay.
If you really are serious about getting a mistress, then you're gonna need to do something about that ear hair that's in there.
You need to wax it out or something, - because ear hair is not sexy, it's not - I'm not getting a mistress.
- Why not? - Ugh.
You know me, I get too attached.
And then there's the cost.
Like, Lina would kill me if I was out buying shoes for other women.
So keep it on the cheap.
Get her some flip-flops or something, you know? Flip-flops and a sandwich, man.
That's all it takes.
Oh what are you, so romantic? Well, we're not talking about romance, here.
Even if I did do it, right like, I haven't been single in a very long time.
I would ha have no idea where to start.
Start with the ears.
Really? _ You know, I've always wondered what the inside of this place looks like.
My my wife used to actually come here and get waxed all the time.
That was, uh, that was before we had kids, obviously.
Just Ow.
Lately, she's, uh, really let things go, down there.
Kind of looks like a pirate.
Did you say something? No, I did not.
Just, uh It's not important.
- Are those your girls? - Yeah, three girls.
You gonna try for the boy? I don't really care about the boy part, but, uh, I'm always down for trying.
I like funny guys.
Do you, uh, do you have any kids, or My ex and I were supposed to have a boy.
- Charlie.
- Oh.
That's what we were going to call him.
We were at 23 weeks, and then one day Now he walks with Jesus.
Um Uh, Charlie is That's a great name.
It's a great name.
- Sorry about losing it like that.
- Oh, please, don't worry about it.
I lose it all the time, so No, it's, you know, it's hard being with the same person forever, you know, and ever.
And ever.
- Look how cute.
- Aw.
After we lost the baby, Angel my ex wanted to start trying again.
But I couldn't be with him no more.
Every time we tried to, uh I just thought of Charlie, and his cute little sonogram.
Maybe God doesn't think I'd be a good mother.
Maybe that's why He took Charlie.
Oh, thank God you picked up.
Hey, uh, I need a favor.
Yeah, I'm, um I need 400 bucks.
- Thank you so much, dude.
- There you go, $400.
Oh, you're a lifesaver.
- So, this is it, you're getting a whore.
- No, of course not.
- Uh, okay, okay.
- But do me a favor, though Don't say anything to Cindy, she'll say something to Lina.
Then Lina will know - you're getting a whore.
- Again, Bernie, not - getting a whore, okay? - Right, okay.
- Thank you.
- I won't say anything.
But, uh, if it is a whore, just promise me don't choke her.
I don't want to get that call.
Hands off.
- Here you go.
- Oh, you're crazy.
Well, you said he was cute, right? We should call him Charlie.
- Hi, Charlie.
- Charlie, like, like, Charlie, Charlie? - Oh, my little Charlie.
- I was Yeah, I was I was just thinking maybe, like, Hercules, you know, or, uh Okay, we'll go with Charlie, I guess.
- You gonna come in, right? - I don't know, uh - Maybe just for a minute.
- Sorry about the mess.
I didn't know I was having company.

You need to get home.
Fine.
- When? - I don't know like 20 minutes.
Okay, bye.
Look, I I got to go.
- You gonna come back? - You know, I I don't think it's a good idea.
Yeah, I feel like I could be back in an hour.

Okay.
- What is the emergency? - Norman died.
The fish.

Daddy? Look, I'm sorry I killed the fish.

Oh, really? then what was the $400 for? It was I can't tell you that.
It's a surprise.
Well, that surprise better not be AIDS.
Herpes? You already gave me that.
No, I did not.
Oh, I get it.
Does it turn you on that I may have had sex with someone else? I thought you said you didn't.
I didn't.
But if it turns you on that I - did, then I did.
