- Nothing like my heyday.

Remember when you tried to set up that train set for Dan? Seven hours and a bottle of whiskey later, Santa was giving out cash and taking a nap under the tree.
Yeah.
Oh.
Those were the days.
Hey.
- Morning.
- Mom, are you still packing, or are we cool? Keep 'em coming.
Only gift I can give you.

That's what's important, right? - Mm.

They're monsters.
Happy birthday, Jesus.

: Hey, everybody, get in here.
There's something's wrong with Leon.
He doesn't look good.
What's going on? - Are you okay, buddy? - Why is he panting so much? - He ate Big Stan's pie.
- What? - Oh, my God.
The pecan? - BRIDGET: How did he get it? - It was on the counter.
- Why was it on the counter? Because I thought somebody might want a snack.
Nobody wanted it, Dad.
It's not about the pie right now.
It's about the dog.
Yeah he really wasn't feeling like himself la-last couple months, you know? Well, if it's his time, at least he went doing what he loved best Eating crap he shouldn't.
- Hall of fame dog.
- The best.
Oh.
I'm sorry.
Ah.
There's his bed.
I guess I better go dispose of the murder weapon.
Yeah.
Hey, nobody say anything to Stan about this, 'cause it'd crush him, okay? Guess I'll go upstairs and send out some e-mails, telling everybody we're canceling the open house.
Oh, honey, maybe that's not what we should do.
I think Leon would want us to have a party.
I don't think I'm up for it, hon.
Well, it might be good for all of us.
Yeah, he did always love an open house.
He'd park under Uncle Roger and just let it rain cheese and crackers.
[SEAN JR.
SIGHS.]
You know what, guys? I think you're right.
We got Leon on Christmas.
Let's celebrate him on Christmas, right? - That's right.
- So you guys You start chopping, and - [QUIETLY.]
: I'm gonna e-mail.
- Oh, no.
No.

I can't take it when he gets emotional.
Come on here.
- What is that? - Jicama.
Why? I got it at a farmer's market.
- I thought it'd be nice.
- [PHONE VIBRATES.]
- What Why? - You know what? Forget it.
Put out pretzels and cheese puffs.
I don't care.
Why-why is it all just white? Hey.
Hi.
I'm glad you called.
We're having an open house all afternoon.
You should stop by.
Um, can we talk about last night? Yeah.
Sorry.
I kind of attacked you.
I had a pot brownie, and I didn't want to tell you 'cause I thought it would bum you out.
I'm actually better with the marijuana than I am the chocolate, especially that close to bedtime.
- [LAUGHS SOFTLY.]
- Listen, uh, I just went for a run, kind of worked some things out in my head.
You probably don't know, but I've been into you since, like, seventh grade.
Sister Helen's Religion and Ethics class.
I-I knew, Monty.
Sister Helen told me.
I went to her in confidence.
Um, but listen, right now, you're going through so much.
[SIGHS.]
It's been a crazy week.
So I think maybe we should just kind of put the brakes on.
Yeah.
Yeah, you're probably right.
But come over anyway.
[SHORT CHUCKLE.]
I mean, we can have some food.
Everyone would love to see you.
How about I give you a call after all the holiday madness, and we can have lunch? Y I'd like that.
Okay.
Good.
Um Merry Christmas, Bridget.
Merry Christmas, Monty.
- Son? - Yeah.
One present I didn't, uh, put under the tree.
- The hell? - Yup.

- You're welcome.
Doesn't feel like headphones, but I'm keeping an open mind.
- Hey! - Huh? - Look at this.
- Yeah.
- Thank you.
I - Right? I like it.
Yeah, we had some laughs the other day, right? You know what? Let's make it official.
Open the card.

- That's a lot of money.
It's a signing bonus, and now you can pay that patent lawyer.

There you go, buddy.
How are you holding up? Good.
Good.
I'm just, uh gonna get some air.
TONY: Well, my cousin has a time-share.
So I'm thinking of heading down to Florida tomorrow.
Don't you have a leaky tub to fix? Does Ann know? - [PHONE DINGS.]
- Not yet.
Bonne chance, my friend.
As predicted, no one has touched - - the all-white jicama.
- So-so you're not pissed? - Of course I'm pissed.
- It was beyond uncool, bro.
- I know.
I know.
I'm just saying that I see the bigger picture now.
You clarified things.
Big epiphany.
Thought of losing Cora terrified me, man, to my marrow.
That's deep.
That's, uh, as deep as it goes.
Yep.
So I got my abuelita's ring.
- Oh, wow.
- Yeah, it's legit.
It's, like, two and a half carats.
I may rim it up with some pave ice, bring the whole thing up to, like, 25K.
- When are you proposing? - At dinner.
When my parents get here.
I got to do it tonight.
Ring's burning a hole in my pocket.
Hope that's not weird for you.
No.
No, no.
I'm-I'm happy for you, man.

Maybe not tell him at all.
Yeah, he can be a prickly pear sometimes.
- When's Cora coming? - Later.

- [SCOFFS.]
We can't keep it.
- Why not? I'm barely in control as it is.
I can't have them better armed than me.
Okay, I'm not a parent, but that seems kind of shortsighted.
Look, it's very sweet, but we're gonna drop it off in the next few days.
Uh, okay.
Well, why don't you just come by now? We're having kind of an open house thing.
Um, no.

[CHUCKLES.]
You were right, by the way.
I I am a disaster.
No, that-that was harsh, and I didn't really mean it.

I was actually single last Christmas.

The photos I took of your jewelry for your website.
Hope it helps.
You're really talented.
Thank you.
Goodbye, Dan.
Goodbye, Cora.

He was totally self-involved, but, wow, were we sexually compatible.
- Mom, wh-where's this going? - Well, he got a residency in St.
Louis, and I was devastated.
- Yeah.

- I can't unhear it, Mom.
- Sex is great.
- Sex is still great.
- Cool.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
Got it.

So I guess I'll see you at Uncle Roger's wedding.
Yeah.
That's in June, right? Cancún? Yep, it's hurricane season, but he couldn't pass up the deal.
[CHUCKLES.]
You were right, by the way.
I I am a disaster.
No, that-that was harsh, and I didn't really mean it.
No, no, no, I I acted like an idiot.
I just kind of ruined everyone's Christmas.
- But take it as a compliment.
- [CHUCKLES.]
Timing, huh? [CLICKS TONGUE.]
Yep.
I was actually single last Christmas.
- But then you wouldn't have met Marco, - Yeah.
Who's pretty much the best guy I know.
Hey, uh, I, uh, have something for you.
The photos I took of your jewelry for your website.
Hope it helps.
You're really talented.
Thank you.
Goodbye, Dan.
Goodbye, Cora.
Ah.
I was rooting for you, buddy.
But I'm a Sox fan, so I like an underdog.
Bridget says you're bailing.
You Christmas coward.
Yeah.
I should go pack.
Need a lift to the airport? No, I'll take an Uber.
All right, good.
It was a hollow offer.

- Cool.
Yeah.
[DAN CHUCKLES SOFTLY.]
[INDISTINCT CHATTER.]

Cora.
I get it.
- Yeah.
I haven't been my best this week.

The holidays.
It's been stressful.
Dad has cancer.
Yeah.
- That can't be easy on you.
- No.
- But he's gonna be okay.
- Yeah.
- I know that.
Most of the time.
- Yeah.
And I lashed out at you when I found out about Ali.
- I'm not really sure what I said.
- Uh, you said there must be a reason they're fleeing in droves.
- Yeah.
That sounds like me.
- Yeah.
- I'm sorry.
- It's okay.
Probably not wrong.
[CHUCKLES.]
- [SIGHS.]
- You know, before I met your father, I was dating this med student.
He was totally self-involved, but, wow, were we sexually compatible.
- Mom, wh-where's this going? - Well, he got a residency in St.
Louis, and I was devastated.
- Yeah.
- But then I met your father.
[CHUCKLES.]
And we're extremely sexually compatible.
I mean, I'm sure you've heard us.
- I can't unhear it, Mom.
- Sex is great.
- Sex is still great.
- Cool.
Thank you.
- Thank you.
Got it.
- You know? But your dad, above all else, is my best friend.
[CHUCKLES SOFTLY.]
And you're gonna find your best friend, and when you do, you marry her.
Yeah.
Or him.
Them? They.
