- Yeah, that one.

- (SAM AND FRED LAUGH)
- Joel, come on, it's your turn.
- It's been his turn.
- I'm still deciding what to do.
- Joel, come on.
- Oh, my God.
Do you ever think about
what people do in your house?
Well, you know Joel made
a list of rules, so
- So?
- TIFFANI: Exactly.
No one pays attention
to rules in a rental.
- (TIFFANI LAUGHS)
- Wait, seriously?
Yeah, seriously.
I don't think anybody would, like
- do anything
- What? Like
- fuck in your bed?
- They're definitely banging in your bed.
- And your couch.
- And on your kitchen counter
where you make those peanut
butter and jelly sandwiches.
- (LAUGHTER)
- Ew, gross! No!
- (KNOCKING)
- Did you invite somebody else?
SUSAN: (SING-SONG): Hello!
Is this where the party's at?
- Hi!
- TIFFANI/JOEL: Hi.
It's so exciting to
finally meet the gang.
- Can I get some hugs? Well, first
- Me first.
- I gotta hug Fred.
- Hey, babe.
What is happening?
(SUSAN GIGGLING)
- Hi! (GIGGLES)
- Okay.
- Hi!
- Hi. Oh, my God!
- This is crazy, isn't it?
- Mm-hmm. Yes.
(JOEL LAUGHS)
Just had a long drive.
I'm gonna go freshen up
and then you can deal me in.
FRED: Babe, you want me
to come up there with ya
- and help you get settled?
- No, no, no, babe.
- You stay here.
- You sure?
- I'll just be a few minutes.
- Okay.
- Joel. Still your turn.
- (DOOR OPENS)
- Um, "babe"?
- Babe?
- Who was that?
- Who was that?
Susan, my fiancée.
- Excuse me?
- What?
(WHEEZES) Your what?
What, I never mentioned her?
Uh, I don't believe so!
Y-you guys never listen
to me anyway, that's why.
(SIGHS) Oh, my God.
This is so mysterious!
I mean, congratulations,
but are you gonna fill us in?
Yeah, after you take your turn.
- Oh Okay.
- W
We're just gonna play cards
like that didn't happen?
- Don't worry about it.
- Oh, my God, full house.

- (CHIPS CLATTER)
(LAUGHTER)
Come on. Who doesn't love
a beautiful mathematician?
- Oh, Fred.
- (LAUGHS) What?
This woman right here?
She's like a mustang.
- (GIGGLING)
- I never thought I'd catch her.
The timing just never worked out.
I was dating someone, then
Fred wasn't available
I thought all these
trips you were taking
- were to visit your mom.
- FRED: Well, you know, sort of,
but I needed a little help
with my, uh, arithmetic.
(ALL LAUGHING)
- So, when did you guys meet?
- SUSAN: Oh, when was grad school, hon?
- Um, what?
- SAM: Wait.
You you went to grad school together?
FRED: Yeah, we were
friends at grad school,
and then, uh, a little bit more.
But then, she got engaged to some guy,
and then, she got
engaged to another guy.
Oh, that was a mistake.
- He was a pig.
- Copy that.
- (LAUGHS)
- FRED: But then, I, you know,
I slid in there, and let
her cry on my shoulder.
- Yeah, you did!
- FRED: Tiffani!
- (LAUGHTER)
- SUSAN: Is that how it happened?
It's always been Fred for me.
He didn't want me to hide, so
I had to come out to my dad.
I said to him, "I'm dating
someone who is important to me.
He's trans, and I want you to know."
- That's really beautiful.
- So sweet.
Come on, I'm turning 50!
I'm not gonna play the field anymore.
Plus, I have this situation right here.
- (LAUGHTER)
- Susie, you know,
she helps me tie my shoes
every single morning.
- (LAUGHTER)
- That's love.
- Okay, how about some shots, people?
- Yes!
TIFFANI: Yes, please.
ALL: Shots, shots, shots,
shots, shots, shots!
- JOEL: Holy shit.
- SAM: Holy shit is right.
I cannot believe that Fred
was keeping that from us.
I know.
And that he's getting married.
I know!
- (SAM SCOFFS)
- (JOEL GIGGLES)
I thought she was pretty great.
Uh, she was cool.
Just a little boring, but
- (SCOFFS)
- What?
I don't know, I just
think it seems a
little fast, that's all.
They've been together for 25 years
Yeah, but dating other
people, blah, blah, blah.
And now, he's just gettin'
married? What the fuck?
I think it's wonderful.
They're so cute together.
They seem really happy.
You're happy for them, right?
Of course, I'm happy for them.
I just don't want her
playing poker with us
- every fuckin' week.
- Sam!
What?
Just kidding.
Don't worry.
I'll always tie your shoes for ya.
You gonna be all sweet to
me when I'm being a cunt?
- Kinda ruins my thing.
- (LAUGHS)
- Tender moment alert.
- Ah!
- Fart sound, fart sound. Get me outta here.

If you're early, you're on time.
If you're on time, you're late.
Oh, my God, just do a cross-stitch.
- Why don't you just go in?
- 'Cause I'm not going in.
Well, I'm not going in either!
- I went in last time. It's your turn!
- Sam!
Please, I'm just I'm too tender
to handle all of this
right now! I can't!
Can't you just I mean
We're going in together.
Gimme the laundry.
Fine, but if she says
anything, I'm leaving.

- Hello. Mary Jo Miller.
Oh. Um, Sam?
No, that's her.
Uh, she put you on
the "no visitors" list.
Oh, just me?
- Yeah. Sorry.
- TRICIA: No. No, no, no.
Can you override that in the system?
- Uh
- TRICIA: Is there like a
manager that we can talk to?
- Because
- Karen, cool it.
See? You are her favorite.
If you try just a little bit harder,
I know she'll put you
on that "no fly" list.
I am making her take you off of it.
You're back in tomorrow.

- They're squirrels.
- Or muskrats.
- Muskrats! Oh yeah.
Okay, sir.
Here is your French toast,
and, uh, rest of the order
is gonna be out shortly.
Alright, but who sent this?
Y-you did, s
It's just a joke.
(LAUGHTER)
- Did you have your coffee yet today?
- No.
You should have some more. (LAUGHS)
- God, I've missed you.
- Can I get a piece of that?
Of course, it's for
the table! Thank you.

So, kids, lay it on me.
What'd you think of Susan?
(SIGHS) I love her. I love her.
- I love you two together.
- Thank you.
- It's so nice.
- SAM: Yeah, totally.
I can't wait for the wedding.
When is the big day, by the way?
Alright, alright, settle
down. Before we get to that,
I want you both to be a part of it.
Now, Joel, I'd like you to officiate,
and Sammy, you gotta sing.
- Like, at the ceremony?
- Yes.
Are you sure?
Of course, I'm sure, you ding-dongs!
Who else am I gonna ask?
I-I don't wanna fuck up your big day.
You can't fuck it up.
- Alright, shit, I'm in.
- FRED: Okay, good.
Um, what were you thinking?
I don't know, could do, like,
- "Rock You Like a Hurricane."
- FRED: (LAUGHS) That is a good song,
but Susan has something in mind,
- so I'll send it to you when I get home.
- Okay.
I could also just be, like, a greeter,
or the person who
guards the gifts, or
(LAUGHS) The person
that guards the gifts?
- Well, you know, from theft.
- FRED: Joel, come on.
You're family.
I want you standing
up there with me, okay?
- Your buddy needs you.
- Okay.
Now, kids.
I need to have the big pieces.
I gotta keep my figure for the big day.

I wonder if this is
good for my diabetes.
- (BANGS TABLE)
- (LAUGHTER)
JOEL: Fred!
SAM: With all due respect,
what exactly are we looking for today?
It's Fred, so I was thinking
something really sweet,
- but also edible.
- Okay.
The real question is,
what am I gonna say?
(SIGHS) I don't know what to say
in front of a big audience at a wedding.
Yeah, you do, Joel. Just
get up there, and speak from your heart.
Oh, speaking of your
heart, Clone-A-Pussy.
(BOTH LAUGH)
I'm gonna make one of those for you
and put it right on your nightstand.
- (EFFEMINATE): No, thank you.

(NORMAL): Look at this
one. Looks like it could
take care of two things at once.
- Sign me up.
- Yes.
Oh, this is more us.
Sex gummies and
kissable body powder?
- Uh-oh. Here comes a little tickler.
- (LAUGHS)
Tickle, tickle.
If you start it, you better
be ready to finish it.

You know, I have, um, I have the song.
Oh. Well, what is it?
Hm, it's
Listening to it, it's kinda
I don't know, see what you think.
- Oh, I love this song.
- I mean, Joel, I can't sing this.
I can't sing this style of music.
Are you kidding? You're gonna kill it.
- You're gonna kill it!
- Maybe
Maybe Susan has, like,
a sweet little niece
that can sing all these
sweet little notes,
and then I'll get up at the reception
when everybody's shit-faced
and do my thing then.
(EMOTIONAL SIGH)
- You're not crying.
- (SOBBING LAUGH)
- Are you fucking crying? Come on, Joel.
- (LAUGHS, SNIFFLES)
It's just so beautiful.
You singing that song with
Fred up there at the altar,
Susan in her beautiful dress.

Need help with anything?
Yeah, I need so much help.
I'd like something that
can split me in half.

It's always been Fred for me.
He didn't want me to hide, so
I had to come out to my dad.
I said to him, "I'm dating
someone who is important to me.
He's trans, and I want you to know."

Come on, I'm turning 50!
I'm not gonna play the field anymore.
