The Loo-Ouch
[PHONE RlNGS.]
Yeah, hello.
BOY 1 [ON PHONE.]
: This is Radio 109.
7, and if you can tell us what song we're playing, you could win $1 0,000.
This is Special Agent Kincaid with the FBl.
- This call is being traced.
- Shh! Federal agents are on their way.
- We're in trouble.
- Hang up.
Oh, man.
You gotta love these phony phone calls.
Oh, it's the tenth time this week those juvenile delinquents have called.
DYLAN: Unh.
GlNA: Ow, ow! Since I'm up.
[SlGHS.]
- What, are you gonna work? - Yeah.
I always liked writing at night.
Well, since I'm up MAN [ON TV.]
: In a few moments we'll return to Uh, the reason I like writing at night is because it's usually quiet.
Gone with the Wind.
Heh, it's my favourite.
When I was a little girl I dressed up like Scarlett for Halloween.
It was great.
Mm-hm.
I'll tell you what, why don't we We'll catch the second half of this down in your room.
You mean you're sending me to my room? No, it's just l, you know-- I wanna write and it's late.
We had time for sex.
Well, yeah.
No, it's okay.
Next time you wanna pencil me in, you just let me know.
Hey, you got a second? - lce machine's down the hall.
- I know, I live here.
I've seen you coming out at all hours.
- Good for you.
- If you want a late-night shift, I got a gig.
A lot of girls that work the hotel dance at my club.
- What? - High rollers.
- Why don't you do a trial for me? - Take your hand off me.
You are making a big mistake.
Hey, heh, I don't mean to step on your dime.
If she's still servicing you I can-- [MAN GRUNTS.]
Yeah, now apologise to the lady.
Why? He made me feel the same way you do.
[CLASSlCAL MUSlC PLAYlNG ON PlANO.]
My parents kicked me out of the house when they found out we were dating.
- This is different.
- Yeah, it's so much worse.
- Mom, Dad, you know Steve.
- Hi.
- You're pregnant? - Yes, I am.
- All right, come on, Alicia.
STEVE: Please, don't go.
We have an announcement to make.
A, uh, second announcement.
It's one that we hope you'll be happy about because we are.
We're getting married, heh.
Well, this is all so unexpected.
Janet, you're too young to marry.
- You haven't dated enough-- - Men who are Japanese? There were so many things you wanted to do.
Like marry the man I love.
Which is exactly what I am gonna do whether you like it or not.
You're disgracing our family.
Come on, Alicia.
My point is, heh, there's the guy you hear on the radio, right? -There's him, and then there's me.
-Mm-hm.
- Oh, the guy that I kissed.
- Exactly.
Which is funny because you sound exactly like the guy that reviewed that kiss to thousands of listeners.
Yeah, but that was the other guy.
Ha, ha, I keep forgetting you're Mr.
Average.
Average? You know, l-- Things were going so good I was hoping I'd rate a notch higher but I guess-- You do.
You do.
Look, I know you hate my show, okay? Sometimes I hate my show.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
Here's my suggestion to you, all right? Listen to me.
- Next time you hear that guy-- - The jerk? - The jerk.
- Mm-hm.
Just turn it off.
Just reach out and turn the radio off.
- I can do that.
- Okay.
- The question is, can you do that? - Absolutely.
Heh, what? You didn't buy it? Absolutely.
That one sound better? ['50s ROCK PLAYlNG ON RADlO.]
Hey, look who's here.
[ALL CHEERlNG.]
A rep from KVlB dropped off a box of these.
"lf you're gonna play you might as well score"? Wait, that's the other guy, all right? That's the jerk.
It's not me.
You know, I wish I believed that.
[SlGHS.]
Wait a minute, when her parents found out she was pregnant, - they didn't even sit down? STEVE: Mm-mm.
We're expecting a baby in three months and we're trying to plan a wedding that includes both our families.
And you got lunch with your old man today.
- Yeah, the fun never ends, does it? - How's Janet holding up? She dragged me out to the hardware store last night just to find some colour swatches.
Stays up all night obsessing over what colour to paint the nursery.
You guys, uh, find a place? Add that to the never-ending list of things to do.
- What about here? - lt'd be great, but it's not big enough.
With the nursery we're one bedroom short.
Not if one of us moved out.
- I couldn't ask you to do that.
- You got enough to deal with without worrying about where you're gonna live.
- You'd do that? NOAH: Not for you, but for Janet and the kid, yeah.
Heh, we'd do that.
Oh, that is a huge relief.
Oh, thanks guys, seriously.
All right.
Hey, don't worry about it.
Have a great day.
- Yeah, heh, thanks.
NOAH: Okay.
I don't know about you but "no problem" isn't exactly accurate.
No, it's not even close, man.
I'm broke.
This is bound to bring up the whole living together issue.
Not for me.
Donna doesn't want to, and you know what? I am standing alone on this one, buddy.
- Hello.
- Hey.
- Is this for our new display? - Uh, no.
These are decorations for Steve and Janet's engagement party.
Hmm, Well, I think you can scratch Janet's parents off the guest list.
She was so freaked out, she stayed up all night picking colours for the nursery.
Nursery? What nursery? Um, the one going in Noah's room.
Or mine.
- Somebody's moving out? - Maybe me.
I don't know.
But it raises some issues or, you know, opportunities for us.
Excuse me.
Do you have any handbags? Oh, yeah, right over there.
Well, you get back to work and we can talk about this later, okay? - Okay.
- All right.
Did I hear Matt's voice? Yeah, we were just talking about moving in together, I think.
- What? - Well, apparently Steve and Janet are gonna be staying at the Walsh house.
- What about Matt and Noah? - Somebody's got to go.
- Noah didn't mention it to you? - No.
Well, I'm sure he will.
Hmm.
- Where's Dylan? - I don't know.
I've got this month's rent cheque for him.
- Fine, I'll take it.
- No, no, no.
I wanna give it to him myself.
I wanna explain why it's a little short this month.
Oh, you didn't sell enough Jell-O shots? [BOTH CHUCKLE.]
It's the lease agreement.
I do the work, he reaps all the benefits, you know.
Well, of course he does.
If it makes you feel any better that's his approach to romance too.
In fact, that gives me an idea.
What if I told you that we could double your money and you wouldn't have to share a penny with Dylan? - We.
- Yeah, me and you.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
- That's already a bad idea.
- All right, well, whatever.
I was just thinking a little side venture.
I'd plan it.
You'd run it.
Just a little after-hours business, but it's cool.
- After-hours, huh? - Mm-hm.
Strippers, lap-dancing.
Rich guys plus sleazy girls equals - Money.
- Yeah, and trouble.
[CHUCKLES.]
Yeah.
Tell me your decision to get married has nothing to do with the pregnancy.
Nothing.
Shotgun weddings don't work, son.
Dad, no one's forcing this marriage.
Can I have some sparkling water and chopsticks please? They love it when you use chopsticks.
- Dad, I could use your support.
- You got it, son.
Married or not, you got that.
Why don't you order for us, huh? Uh, maybe a nice spicy meat dish or something.
They always keep the best dishes a secret for the, uh, heh, Chinese.
Not your people.
I know.
He needs therapy.
WAlTER: Sir, I'm not sure what you'd like because I'm both Vietnamese and a vegetarian.
So I haven't tried the meat dishes.
Could you give us a minute, please? Okay, here's what I think.
You have the child first.
And then you see how it goes between you.
See how it goes? So you're saying don't get married.
Just so you know, Janet and l love each other very much.
We're not gonna take your advice.
Let's go.
- Well, hello.
- Oh, great.
- You smell good.
- Uh, don't.
I came to pick up my bag and here's your key.
I was gonna order some dinner.
Why don't you stay? - I'm off the clock.
- Oh, ugh.
The living situation has nothing to do with how I feel about you.
No, Dylan, don't even-- You make me feel like a whore.
I wanna be with you, not live with you.
I don't wanna hear it.
It's always about you.
Mr.
McKay, I'm Maria Alvarez.
I'm a housekeeper here at the hotel.
And my sons have something they'd like to say to you.
- Sorry about the phony phone calls.
- Me too.
It's my fault.
Ever since the community centre stopped their programs, I've had to bring them to work with me.
I take it Hector caught you? Yeah.
Yeah, Hector used to bust me too all the time.
- May I have a word with the boys? - Okay.
All right, you two knuckleheads, listen to me.
You see this joker over here, Room 701? This guy needs a wake-up call every, uh-- Every 1 5 minutes starting at 6 in the morning.
- You guys think you can handle it? - No problem.
Remember, I owe you one.
And I am the best.
So when you least expect it, expect it.
All right? Get out of here.
Get a haircut.
Why hasn't Noah told me he might be moving out? Noah's moving out? I don't know.
He hasn't mentioned it.
That's weird, right? I'm sure there's an explanation.
Okay, um, let's get back to party planning.
We'll just forget about Noah.
Let's forget about Janet's parents' hostility too okay? Let's forget about Steve's father's insensitivity.
- I think it's about hostility, don't you? - Hula skirt anyone? Anyone? At least your mom's happy about the news.
Thank God she's out of town filming in Toronto.
You know why? See, she's a Caucasian, and she's a lesbian.
Which means she's a double threat to your parents.
"Have the baby.
See how it goes.
' Did you father say date other women? - Or was that just the subtext? - Oh, please, Janet.
Well, we could call the florist about the leis.
[KNOCKlNG ON DOOR.]
Surprise! [CHUCKLES.]
- Hi, Karen.
- Hey, congratulations! [BOTH CHUCKLlNG.]
KAREN: Your mom told me about the party and though she couldn't make it, I was in San Diego and she insisted I come.
Oh, great.
- Oh, you must be Janet.
- Yes, uh, Donna, Janet, this is Karen Lewis.
My mom's girlfriend, uh, partner? You're here for the engagement party? I'm here to represent the healthy loving side of Steve's family in your gorgeous mother's absence.
Heh, I can't wait to meet your parents.
[SCOFFS.]
- Janet.
- Hey, are you all right? Is it the baby? No, something's wrong.
Call Dr.
Long.
Tell her to meet us at the hospital.
Oh, my God.
- All right, so after the club closes-- - We open for an after party.
-Right, 20 bucks a head-- - No.
We can get 30, trust me.
- Really? - Yes.
But all the girls negotiate their own deals and pocket their own money.
They can negotiate whatever else they want.
- How do we fill the seats? - Compliments of Kelly's publicist.
It's so weird because she lost her contact list of power players.
And suddenly it ended up in my purse.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Finders keepers.
- Losers weepers.
- Heh.
- That's right.
So, what's up with your sudden change of heart? First and last month's rent.
You're moving out of the Walsh's? NOAH: Maybe.
And apartments are a lot more expensive than I remember.
- Move in with Donna.
- She wouldn't want to.
And even if she did, I'm not gonna freeload off her.
Considering how bad it feels for me to freeload off of Dylan, you're probably making the right decision.
Why are you staying here living off his money? - Because I'm broke.
Just like you.
- All right, I'm curious here.
What happened to all the money Donna's mom forked over? My mother spent it all.
[GRUNTS.]
It doesn't matter.
I'm gonna make it all back and then some.
[CHUCKLES.]
I can't remember the last time anybody asked to use our projector.
Yeah, well, video and DVD, it's not quite the same thing.
Oh, hold on a second.
[SPEAKS lN SPANlSH.]
And finish your homework.
And don't move.
Do you hear me? [BOTH SCREAM.]
[CHUCKLES.]
Oh, yeah, when you least expect it, expect it.
- You're good.
- Very good.
Hmm Homework.
Now.
[CHUCKLES.]
I'm happy to say the ultrasound images were normal.
Baby's heart rate was normal.
And your blood work was normal.
So she's okay? As far as we can tell, mother and baby are absolutely fine.
Ugh, thank God.
Why did it feel like my heart was beating a million miles a minute? Have you been under a lot of stress lately? [SCOFFS.]
Some, heh.
From what you described you might have had a panic attack.
- A panic attack? - We were just sitting around talking.
- I've never had one before.
- Good.
Let's avoid another.
I'm reluctant to prescribe any medication this late in your pregnancy.
So my advice is light exercise, plenty of rest, and most of all, avoid stressful situations.
Janet.
- Mom, what are you doing here? - I called her.
- Are you all right? - I'm okay.
- Oh, thank God.
I was so terrified.
- That makes two of us.
- I completely panicked.
- Being pregnant can be scary.
I know, I was with you.
There have been so many times I wanted to call you.
Your health, this child, that's the most important thing now.
Remember, no stress.
I'm Michelle Sosna, Janet's mother.
I know Donna, but, uh Uh, Mrs.
Sosna, this is Karen.
My adopted sister.
Come on, sis, let's get some coffee.
I'll explain, I'll explain.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Grand Central Market was amazing.
- Yes.
And Angels Flight, ah, that was so cool.
Shortest railway in the world.
Thank you for taking me.
Thank you for giving me another chance.
What did I tell you, huh? Me and the guy on the air don't have to mix, right? You know, I would love to invite you in right now, - but I would feel really weird about it.
- So don't.
- You don't have to.
- Then you won't call.
It's your choice, I'm just saying-- - I'll call you tomorrow.
- Come on, David.
I listen to your show.
This was our third date.
You're in or you're out.
We sleep together or I'm history.
- lsn't that your rule? - You wanna hang out tomorrow night? If you're offering me an extension on that deadline, I'm gonna pass.
My friends, Steve and Janet, are throwing an engagement party.
It's a luau.
[LAUGHS.]
Huh? Sounds irresistible, doesn't it? I really want you to meet my friends.
I'll think about it.
You do that.
[SMACKlNG LlPS.]
Good night.
Thanks.
I saw this, uh, townhouse today, driving back from work.
And it had two bedrooms, an office, upper and lower deck.
- Hmm, Sounds big.
- Not for two people.
Let's give it a shot.
I think it would be fun.
It would be fun someday.
I like living with Donna.
I like walking around with a mud mask.
Knowing there are nights when I don't have to look cute.
Well, mud masks are cute.
I like things the way they are.
Things are good, right? - Thought it could be better, that's all.
- I'm not saying they wouldn't be.
You're just talking about living with Donna and beauty treatments and pretty much everything but us, right? - I have to tell you something.
- Okay.
I'm listening.
- I can't make the luau.
- Oh, okay.
- Is that it? - I've got so much work at the club.
Got to stock the shelves, do the books and we are way over budget.
- Anything else? - I'm crazy about you.
Come on, Noah, I know that you might be moving out.
Matt told Kelly and-- - Kelly told you.
- Yeah.
Look, it's my problem.
I'll deal with it.
It's not our problem? I'm getting my own place, it's no big deal.
Mm-hm.
You kidding me? This club is gonna make every other club in Los Angeles look like a church picnic.
[CHUCKLES.]
Yes.
Of course I'm gonna be there.
Yeah, no, just bring whoever you want.
[KNOCKlNG ON DOOR.]
Okay, yeah, hold on.
Yeah, come in.
Hey, I'll see you there.
Okay, bye.
Whoa, wait, wait, excuse me.
Uh, that's-- You have the wrong room.
This is-- This isn't-- That is-- What are you doing? Well, here you go.
They're for your enjoyment.
Now take a ticket, take two.
- What? - So I can be your date.
Thank you very much.
Now, give me that back.
Enjoy the show, miss.
Quickly, gentlemen, we have a beautiful young woman to impress.
Uh, it was Gone with the Wind, was it not? GlNA: Heh.
- Gone with the Wind.
Oh-ho, yeah.
And it is showtime.
Ow.
GlNA: Heh, you're insane.
- All right, let's just-- - Heh, What are you--? - What is that? - Oh, wait, I'll Is that your date book? Get that out of here.
STEVE: I hope Kelly and Donna never come home.
JANET: Mm-hm.
- How's that? Feel good? - Good.
- Give me some.
- Okay.
[DOORBELL RlNGS.]
You'll get it.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
Mr.
and Mrs.
Sosna, come in, please.
ALlClA & JANET: Hi.
We've come because now we have an announcement to make.
I told him about your scare.
Some events can be a blessing in disguise.
I shouldn't have pushed you away.
STEVE: You're right.
You shouldn't have.
She's your daughter and she needs you.
I couldn't agree with you more.
Which is why we want you to move back in with us.
- Is that your announcement? - We wanna help.
With the child, with expenses, with everything.
- Well, thanks, but we're fine.
- And I'm gonna keep working.
What about school? You always talked about a graduate program in French Literature.
That was two years ago, Dad, you said that was a waste of money.
- We'll take care of it.
- And the baby.
And you can have freedom, and be a mother.
Excuse me.
But where do I fit into this happy well-funded picture you're painting? You're the child's father.
You can come visit.
Visit.
Remember how scared you were in the emergency room? - Well, you won't be with us.
- I'm fine here.
But I do need you.
Steve and I both do.
BEN: Please, Janet.
Think of what's best for the child.
Raising your baby with us or alone with him.
She said no.
Think about it.
Hey, you two.
I thought I told you to place those calls to Room 701.
- We did.
- You didn't get one, did you? Oh, did I get one? No.
I got eight.
You know what this means? - War.
- Yeah.
Get your stuff.
We're leaving.
Hey, what's going on? I got fired.
- Fired? Hector, what, why? - Because Mrs.
Haverhill found two large crabs in her bathtub this morning.
[SlGHS.]
We were just trying to keep them alive.
Yeah, listen, Hector, I put these guys up to it, okay? I will take responsibility.
And I will take care of old Mrs.
Haverhill.
- I'll send her up some schnapps.
HECTOR: Dylan, this is a hotel, - not a daycare centre.
- I know.
Listen, as a favour to me, I'm asking you, please don't do this.
I'm sorry, but I have no choice.
Oh, come-- Hector.
[SlGHS.]
Noah said the cases are waiting inside.
Wait, we'll help you.
Figure out what else we need for the party.
Do roommate things, whatever.
Roommate things? [DOOR CLOSES.]
Pedicures, collagen treatments, mud masks, heh.
I told him that I didn't wanna move in with him.
Well, at least your boyfriend asked.
Noah told me he's getting a place.
End of story.
But Noah was the one pushing to move in before Before I went temporarily insane.
Yeah, I know.
Well, is that what he said? Because if it isn't, don't assume.
Oh, it's getting over this hurdle is like our first test since we've been back together.
We're failing.
[CHUCKLES.]
We can't commit but the ultimate adolescent Steve Sanders is going to be a father and a husband.
And we're throwing his engagement party on the beach in less than two hours.
We're really behind.
My point exactly.
[ENGlNE REVS.]
Woo-hoo! That's it! Last remnants of the beach party.
I explained, the adopted sister thing just kind of popped out.
Can you please just run with it for the party? I didn't realise you were ashamed of us.
I am proud of my family.
Janet's parents are completely uptight.
They're coming here tonight to change her mind and move back in with them, all right? So for this evening can we just take a deep breath and rise above, please? - By lying? - Exactly.
- Dad.
- Hey, son.
I'm so glad you could make it.
Come on in.
Dad, look, this is very important, okay? I need you to focus.
All right.
You see the woman over my shoulder? - I sure do.
Is she single? Heh.
- Dad, that's Karen, Mom's lover.
But for tonight she's my adopted sister, okay? See, Janet's parents don't know that Mom and Your mother, my ex-wife, has a lover named Karen? Yeah, Dad, she's gay.
I thought you knew.
[CHUCKLES.]
We can talk all about that later.
But for now she's my adopted sister, your daughter, okay? Please, I'm begging you, please, please.
- All right, son.
This is your night.
- Thanks, Dad.
But no wife of mine was ever gay.
[CHUCKLES.]
No, listen I don't want you to worry about that woman getting fired because her kids, they're total nightmares.
Come on, they're just having a good time.
Yeah, in a juvenile delinquent sort of way, heh.
Dylan, Noah really wanted to be here tonight.
- Yeah, so why didn't he? - Because he's running your club.
Uh, I think a really strong drink-- Do you have any of those umbrellas? Do you think you can relieve him? Yeah, Donna, I'll think about it.
Um, actually, I'll have some wine, heh.
Tonight, please? Could you fill it all the way up, because I'm really thirsty.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Oh, my God! I'm so sorry.
[GRUNTS.]
- Do you want me to help you? - Spare me.
[DOORBELL RlNGS.]
Sorry.
Don't let her guilt trip you.
Yeah, I'm just not in much of a luau kind of mood anyway.
Oh, me neither.
These people give me a headache.
How did your mother ever marry that man? - Oh, Mr.
and Mrs.
Sosna, hello.
RUSH: Hello, everybody.
And how's my baby girl tonight? Why, you must be the Sosnas.
I'm Rush Sanders, Steve's dad.
How do you do? My wife, Michelle.
Michelle, this is Karen, my daughter.
- Uh, is Steve's mother here? - Pumpkin, where's mommy? She's on location.
She's a wonderful actress, heh.
She can fake anything.
[THUNDER BOOMS.]
Sis, Dad, look.
Poi.
[DOORBELL RlNGS.]
I'll get it.
- Hi.
Can I help you? - I'm a special guest.
- Is Rush Sanders here? - Trish.
- Rush.
Hi.
- You're here, huh? - Dad, who's your friend? - The entertainment.
STEVE: What? - I thought it was a bachelor party.
STEVE: Unh, thanks so much for coming but we're not gonna need your services.
TRlSH: That's David Silver.
[STEVE GRUNTS.]
Hi, I'm sorry, you are? - This is, uh-- - Trish.
- Our prospective nanny.
TRlSH: Heh.
Promise me you'll keep looking.
David Silver.
I recognise you.
- Can you take this to Robin? - I listen to your show.
- And I've seen your face around town.
- Yeah? - Um, can I have your autograph? - Yeah, yeah, sure.
Great.
So how'd that third date go? I'm gonna need a napkin.
No, no, no.
Sign here.
More poi anyone? - Heh, you're not serious.
- David, come on.
Live a little.
Ugh, so the third date.
Did you sleep with her? - Did you get some? Come on.
- Yeah, yeah, tons, all right? Thanks.
Thanks a lot.
You could try to explain but what could you possibly say? It's all just a phase.
Samantha's always trying new things.
I can understand your feeling of emasculation.
Mm-hm, I bet you can.
Can you tell when a woman fakes an orgasm? Yes, absolutely.
That's not what mom says.
I got something you don't have.
- Penis envy? - All right, that does it.
Come on.
You and me in bed.
Right now.
Your father and your sister? Come on, Michelle.
Great.
BEN: Get your coat.
Hold on a second, I have a confession to make.
That woman, she's not my sister.
It doesn't matter.
I've seen enough.
My mom's gay.
Karen is her lover.
Well, that changes everything.
- We don't care who your family is.
STEVE: That is so not true.
You don't even know me and you judge me.
We know you run a gossip sheet.
It's garbage.
- I work there too, Dad.
- You said it was temporary.
A lark.
Until you met him.
ALlClA: We only came here to get you to move home.
You're wasting your time.
You're wasting our daughter's potential.
Janet, you're a smart girl.
You wanted grad school.
Have you noticed that my life's gone in a different direction, Daddy? That I'm happy? - Do you even care? - Of course we do.
You're throwing your life away.
That's right, Dad, it's my life.
And my choices.
Admit it, you're not disappointed in the man I've chosen, - you're disappointed in me.
- You're right.
We are.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
- I gotta get to the club, man.
- Oh, um, well, don't go yet.
Wait just one second.
NOAH: Now, we want stripping, lap-dancing anything the customer wants.
[CELL PHONE RlNGlNG.]
[LOUNGE MUSlC PLAYlNG ON STEREO.]
- Hello? - Noah, listen, - you better be done with auditions.
- I need another hour.
No, just listen to me.
Donna is guilt-tripping Dylan about the hours you're putting in and he's on his way down there.
- I need another half an hour.
- He's coming right now! - Well, stop him.
- How? I don't know.
Use your head.
Improvise.
Do something.
No, Noah, l-- Hello? Noah? [GRUNTS.]
Um, my headache seems to have disappeared.
- Yeah, so did your clothes.
- Oh, yeah.
[CHUCKLES.]
- You sure you have to go to work? - Yeah.
Um, this looks like a job for me.
Your parents wanna send you to the grad school, and I've got you digging through celebrity trash.
Well, maybe I will get my Master's.
Are you afraid that I won't be able to take care of you and the baby? No, I'm not.
Well, I'm kind of scared that if you choose me over your family that you're gonna resent me.
My family's no consolation prize.
It's my father that's making me choose, okay? Not you.
Then there's this culture that I know nothing about.
- You never speak Japanese.
- I hardly know any.
Neither will your kid.
[SlGHS.]
The worst part about your family, they have a point.
Thanks to an anonymous donation, we've reopened our after-school program.
DYLAN: Hmm.
- Go on.
Go.
Dylan, I got your message.
You said it was important.
Yes, it is important, Hector.
It's important for you to know that the hotel will no longer be functioning as a daycare centre seeing as how this place is open for business.
Does that mean I could have my job back? You know, I spoke with old Mrs.
Haverhill and, she's, uh-- She's feeling no pain.
- Please, Hector.
- I suppose.
Heh, thank you.
But I'm expecting some schnapps.
Oh, and some schnapps you shall get.
You know, we could use a guy like you around here.
No, I don't think so.
I'm not really very good with kids.
Hmm, I don't know about that.
[ALL CHUCKLE.]
Trust me, I've been running this place for two years now.
Kids only mess with the grown-ups they like.
- Well, if you'll excuse me.
- Okay.
Thank you.
I won't disappoint you.
[CHUCKLES.]
Boy, are you gonna get it.
MATT: Here we go.
Okay, we got the answer to our problems.
- Tails, I move out.
- Heads, I do.
We need to talk.
It just kills me that we're gonna let a coin decide what we're gonna do.
You mean, what I'm gonna do.
Are we gonna talk about this? Because I really want to.
Okay, what do you wanna talk about? Us moving in together? - Maybe.
- Heh.
We've already been down that road before.
- You said no.
- I know.
I just-- I freaked out when we were looking for places.
- It's a big decision.
- Yeah, it is.
You know all that stuff I said about liking how and where I live? Yeah, something about mud masks, if I recall.
Part of me wants to live with you so bad.
- But? - I'm confused.
Steve and Janet are getting married.
They're having a baby.
- And how does that affect us? - I feel left behind.
And I don't wanna commit to living with you just because I feel like my life is passing me by.
- Does that make any sense? - No, you're 25 years old.
I feel a lot older than 25.
- Well, I understand.
- I know you do.
- That's why I love you.
- And I love you too.
Now root for me because I hate packing.
Come on.
You ready? Here we go.
Let's do it.
- Noah and I are moving in together.
- Heh.
See, heads, tails, we win.
I want us to live together.
- Are you sure? - Absolutely.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Congratulations.
- Yeah, let's, uh, go out and celebrate.
I have to go to work right now.
But we are gonna celebrate when I get back.
You bet we are.
NOAH: See you.
- All right.
STEVE: Thank you all for coming.
Let's try this one more time.
We wanted to apologise for all the mistakes we've made.
We're not proud of the way we behaved at the luau.
And we want you to know we've considered your advice.
I know you think this is a shotgun wedding.
I'm not holding a gun.
We've begged Janet not to marry your son.
Because you don't think he's good enough for me.
Wait, wait a minute.
Who are you, the emperor of Siam? That's Thailand by the way, not Japan.
RUSH: Well, you're in America now, buddy.
Where we've lived and done business for 43 years.
All right, stop this, all right? Look, it's not about race or class or stupid things that we've said and done.
It's about the fact that Steve and I love each other and we're getting married.
I would have proposed eventually.
Just so you know.
This baby This baby's just an added bonus.
So you can be happy for us and be a part of this child's life.
And you can share all the things that you have to offer.
Or you could sit back and wait and see if we fail.
JANET: It's your choice.
STEVE: Because right now, we have our own family to think about.
- You weren't gonna tell me, were you? - About what? About your anonymous contribution to the community centre.
- Oh, Hector.
He ratted me out.
- Hector's a rat.
He's proud, though.
Kiss me.
Ugh, lift your head.
[GRUNTS.]
You know, you don't have to go.
That's a switch.
Yeah, I'm a little slow on the uptake, but I learn.
[CHUCKLES.]
You know, despite how hard you try to hide it you can be a pretty great guy.
You know that? Sometimes.
- So stay with me.
- I can't.
[ROCK MUSlC PLAYlNG ON STEREO.]
- Hey, what's up? - I feel like a pimp.
You look like a pimp.
Give me numbers.
Three grand and change, your half.
Whoa! My hal--? My half? - Yeah, I'm doing this for Donna, okay? - I know.
That's so romantic.
I'm doing this for me, me.
- You didn't pick up the phone, so - No, I'm picking up, selectively.
I'm just talking to you right now because I'm curious.
Did we sleep together again tonight? Was it good for me, David, huh? Yeah, we did.
And I was great.
Robin, I don't know why I lied about that.
Because you're David Silver.
You shoot, you score, right? Something like that.
You know, when I was in high school, I wasn't like I am now.
I never would have had a radio guy with a three-date rule.
I fell in love with this girl and I actually waited years before I slept with her.
David, It's been a really long time since I found somebody that I could trust.
I got to be honest with you, you scare me.
Because when I see you standing at my door I don't know which guy you are standing there.
It's me.
- Robin, it's just me.
- Whoever that is.
But I got to tell you that guy that you talk about from high school Yeah.
That's the guy that I would have liked to have met.
Yeah, hello.
BOY 1 [ON PHONE.]
: This is Radio 109.
7, and if you can tell us what song we're playing, you could win $1 0,000.
This is Special Agent Kincaid with the FBl.
- This call is being traced.
- Shh! Federal agents are on their way.
- We're in trouble.
- Hang up.
Oh, man.
You gotta love these phony phone calls.
Oh, it's the tenth time this week those juvenile delinquents have called.
DYLAN: Unh.
GlNA: Ow, ow! Since I'm up.
[SlGHS.]
- What, are you gonna work? - Yeah.
I always liked writing at night.
Well, since I'm up MAN [ON TV.]
: In a few moments we'll return to Uh, the reason I like writing at night is because it's usually quiet.
Gone with the Wind.
Heh, it's my favourite.
When I was a little girl I dressed up like Scarlett for Halloween.
It was great.
Mm-hm.
I'll tell you what, why don't we We'll catch the second half of this down in your room.
You mean you're sending me to my room? No, it's just l, you know-- I wanna write and it's late.
We had time for sex.
Well, yeah.
No, it's okay.
Next time you wanna pencil me in, you just let me know.
Hey, you got a second? - lce machine's down the hall.
- I know, I live here.
I've seen you coming out at all hours.
- Good for you.
- If you want a late-night shift, I got a gig.
A lot of girls that work the hotel dance at my club.
- What? - High rollers.
- Why don't you do a trial for me? - Take your hand off me.
You are making a big mistake.
Hey, heh, I don't mean to step on your dime.
If she's still servicing you I can-- [MAN GRUNTS.]
Yeah, now apologise to the lady.
Why? He made me feel the same way you do.
[CLASSlCAL MUSlC PLAYlNG ON PlANO.]
My parents kicked me out of the house when they found out we were dating.
- This is different.
- Yeah, it's so much worse.
- Mom, Dad, you know Steve.
- Hi.
- You're pregnant? - Yes, I am.
- All right, come on, Alicia.
STEVE: Please, don't go.
We have an announcement to make.
A, uh, second announcement.
It's one that we hope you'll be happy about because we are.
We're getting married, heh.
Well, this is all so unexpected.
Janet, you're too young to marry.
- You haven't dated enough-- - Men who are Japanese? There were so many things you wanted to do.
Like marry the man I love.
Which is exactly what I am gonna do whether you like it or not.
You're disgracing our family.
Come on, Alicia.
My point is, heh, there's the guy you hear on the radio, right? -There's him, and then there's me.
-Mm-hm.
- Oh, the guy that I kissed.
- Exactly.
Which is funny because you sound exactly like the guy that reviewed that kiss to thousands of listeners.
Yeah, but that was the other guy.
Ha, ha, I keep forgetting you're Mr.
Average.
Average? You know, l-- Things were going so good I was hoping I'd rate a notch higher but I guess-- You do.
You do.
Look, I know you hate my show, okay? Sometimes I hate my show.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
Here's my suggestion to you, all right? Listen to me.
- Next time you hear that guy-- - The jerk? - The jerk.
- Mm-hm.
Just turn it off.
Just reach out and turn the radio off.
- I can do that.
- Okay.
- The question is, can you do that? - Absolutely.
Heh, what? You didn't buy it? Absolutely.
That one sound better? ['50s ROCK PLAYlNG ON RADlO.]
Hey, look who's here.
[ALL CHEERlNG.]
A rep from KVlB dropped off a box of these.
"lf you're gonna play you might as well score"? Wait, that's the other guy, all right? That's the jerk.
It's not me.
You know, I wish I believed that.
[SlGHS.]
Wait a minute, when her parents found out she was pregnant, - they didn't even sit down? STEVE: Mm-mm.
We're expecting a baby in three months and we're trying to plan a wedding that includes both our families.
And you got lunch with your old man today.
- Yeah, the fun never ends, does it? - How's Janet holding up? She dragged me out to the hardware store last night just to find some colour swatches.
Stays up all night obsessing over what colour to paint the nursery.
You guys, uh, find a place? Add that to the never-ending list of things to do.
- What about here? - lt'd be great, but it's not big enough.
With the nursery we're one bedroom short.
Not if one of us moved out.
- I couldn't ask you to do that.
- You got enough to deal with without worrying about where you're gonna live.
- You'd do that? NOAH: Not for you, but for Janet and the kid, yeah.
Heh, we'd do that.
Oh, that is a huge relief.
Oh, thanks guys, seriously.
All right.
Hey, don't worry about it.
Have a great day.
- Yeah, heh, thanks.
NOAH: Okay.
I don't know about you but "no problem" isn't exactly accurate.
No, it's not even close, man.
I'm broke.
This is bound to bring up the whole living together issue.
Not for me.
Donna doesn't want to, and you know what? I am standing alone on this one, buddy.
- Hello.
- Hey.
- Is this for our new display? - Uh, no.
These are decorations for Steve and Janet's engagement party.
Hmm, Well, I think you can scratch Janet's parents off the guest list.
She was so freaked out, she stayed up all night picking colours for the nursery.
Nursery? What nursery? Um, the one going in Noah's room.
Or mine.
- Somebody's moving out? - Maybe me.
I don't know.
But it raises some issues or, you know, opportunities for us.
Excuse me.
Do you have any handbags? Oh, yeah, right over there.
Well, you get back to work and we can talk about this later, okay? - Okay.
- All right.
Did I hear Matt's voice? Yeah, we were just talking about moving in together, I think.
- What? - Well, apparently Steve and Janet are gonna be staying at the Walsh house.
- What about Matt and Noah? - Somebody's got to go.
- Noah didn't mention it to you? - No.
Well, I'm sure he will.
Hmm.
- Where's Dylan? - I don't know.
I've got this month's rent cheque for him.
- Fine, I'll take it.
- No, no, no.
I wanna give it to him myself.
I wanna explain why it's a little short this month.
Oh, you didn't sell enough Jell-O shots? [BOTH CHUCKLE.]
It's the lease agreement.
I do the work, he reaps all the benefits, you know.
Well, of course he does.
If it makes you feel any better that's his approach to romance too.
In fact, that gives me an idea.
What if I told you that we could double your money and you wouldn't have to share a penny with Dylan? - We.
- Yeah, me and you.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
- That's already a bad idea.
- All right, well, whatever.
I was just thinking a little side venture.
I'd plan it.
You'd run it.
Just a little after-hours business, but it's cool.
- After-hours, huh? - Mm-hm.
Strippers, lap-dancing.
Rich guys plus sleazy girls equals - Money.
- Yeah, and trouble.
[CHUCKLES.]
Yeah.
Tell me your decision to get married has nothing to do with the pregnancy.
Nothing.
Shotgun weddings don't work, son.
Dad, no one's forcing this marriage.
Can I have some sparkling water and chopsticks please? They love it when you use chopsticks.
- Dad, I could use your support.
- You got it, son.
Married or not, you got that.
Why don't you order for us, huh? Uh, maybe a nice spicy meat dish or something.
They always keep the best dishes a secret for the, uh, heh, Chinese.
Not your people.
I know.
He needs therapy.
WAlTER: Sir, I'm not sure what you'd like because I'm both Vietnamese and a vegetarian.
So I haven't tried the meat dishes.
Could you give us a minute, please? Okay, here's what I think.
You have the child first.
And then you see how it goes between you.
See how it goes? So you're saying don't get married.
Just so you know, Janet and l love each other very much.
We're not gonna take your advice.
Let's go.
- Well, hello.
- Oh, great.
- You smell good.
- Uh, don't.
I came to pick up my bag and here's your key.
I was gonna order some dinner.
Why don't you stay? - I'm off the clock.
- Oh, ugh.
The living situation has nothing to do with how I feel about you.
No, Dylan, don't even-- You make me feel like a whore.
I wanna be with you, not live with you.
I don't wanna hear it.
It's always about you.
Mr.
McKay, I'm Maria Alvarez.
I'm a housekeeper here at the hotel.
And my sons have something they'd like to say to you.
- Sorry about the phony phone calls.
- Me too.
It's my fault.
Ever since the community centre stopped their programs, I've had to bring them to work with me.
I take it Hector caught you? Yeah.
Yeah, Hector used to bust me too all the time.
- May I have a word with the boys? - Okay.
All right, you two knuckleheads, listen to me.
You see this joker over here, Room 701? This guy needs a wake-up call every, uh-- Every 1 5 minutes starting at 6 in the morning.
- You guys think you can handle it? - No problem.
Remember, I owe you one.
And I am the best.
So when you least expect it, expect it.
All right? Get out of here.
Get a haircut.
Why hasn't Noah told me he might be moving out? Noah's moving out? I don't know.
He hasn't mentioned it.
That's weird, right? I'm sure there's an explanation.
Okay, um, let's get back to party planning.
We'll just forget about Noah.
Let's forget about Janet's parents' hostility too okay? Let's forget about Steve's father's insensitivity.
- I think it's about hostility, don't you? - Hula skirt anyone? Anyone? At least your mom's happy about the news.
Thank God she's out of town filming in Toronto.
You know why? See, she's a Caucasian, and she's a lesbian.
Which means she's a double threat to your parents.
"Have the baby.
See how it goes.
' Did you father say date other women? - Or was that just the subtext? - Oh, please, Janet.
Well, we could call the florist about the leis.
[KNOCKlNG ON DOOR.]
Surprise! [CHUCKLES.]
- Hi, Karen.
- Hey, congratulations! [BOTH CHUCKLlNG.]
KAREN: Your mom told me about the party and though she couldn't make it, I was in San Diego and she insisted I come.
Oh, great.
- Oh, you must be Janet.
- Yes, uh, Donna, Janet, this is Karen Lewis.
My mom's girlfriend, uh, partner? You're here for the engagement party? I'm here to represent the healthy loving side of Steve's family in your gorgeous mother's absence.
Heh, I can't wait to meet your parents.
[SCOFFS.]
- Janet.
- Hey, are you all right? Is it the baby? No, something's wrong.
Call Dr.
Long.
Tell her to meet us at the hospital.
Oh, my God.
- All right, so after the club closes-- - We open for an after party.
-Right, 20 bucks a head-- - No.
We can get 30, trust me.
- Really? - Yes.
But all the girls negotiate their own deals and pocket their own money.
They can negotiate whatever else they want.
- How do we fill the seats? - Compliments of Kelly's publicist.
It's so weird because she lost her contact list of power players.
And suddenly it ended up in my purse.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Finders keepers.
- Losers weepers.
- Heh.
- That's right.
So, what's up with your sudden change of heart? First and last month's rent.
You're moving out of the Walsh's? NOAH: Maybe.
And apartments are a lot more expensive than I remember.
- Move in with Donna.
- She wouldn't want to.
And even if she did, I'm not gonna freeload off her.
Considering how bad it feels for me to freeload off of Dylan, you're probably making the right decision.
Why are you staying here living off his money? - Because I'm broke.
Just like you.
- All right, I'm curious here.
What happened to all the money Donna's mom forked over? My mother spent it all.
[GRUNTS.]
It doesn't matter.
I'm gonna make it all back and then some.
[CHUCKLES.]
I can't remember the last time anybody asked to use our projector.
Yeah, well, video and DVD, it's not quite the same thing.
Oh, hold on a second.
[SPEAKS lN SPANlSH.]
And finish your homework.
And don't move.
Do you hear me? [BOTH SCREAM.]
[CHUCKLES.]
Oh, yeah, when you least expect it, expect it.
- You're good.
- Very good.
Hmm Homework.
Now.
[CHUCKLES.]
I'm happy to say the ultrasound images were normal.
Baby's heart rate was normal.
And your blood work was normal.
So she's okay? As far as we can tell, mother and baby are absolutely fine.
Ugh, thank God.
Why did it feel like my heart was beating a million miles a minute? Have you been under a lot of stress lately? [SCOFFS.]
Some, heh.
From what you described you might have had a panic attack.
- A panic attack? - We were just sitting around talking.
- I've never had one before.
- Good.
Let's avoid another.
I'm reluctant to prescribe any medication this late in your pregnancy.
So my advice is light exercise, plenty of rest, and most of all, avoid stressful situations.
Janet.
- Mom, what are you doing here? - I called her.
- Are you all right? - I'm okay.
- Oh, thank God.
I was so terrified.
- That makes two of us.
- I completely panicked.
- Being pregnant can be scary.
I know, I was with you.
There have been so many times I wanted to call you.
Your health, this child, that's the most important thing now.
Remember, no stress.
I'm Michelle Sosna, Janet's mother.
I know Donna, but, uh Uh, Mrs.
Sosna, this is Karen.
My adopted sister.
Come on, sis, let's get some coffee.
I'll explain, I'll explain.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Grand Central Market was amazing.
- Yes.
And Angels Flight, ah, that was so cool.
Shortest railway in the world.
Thank you for taking me.
Thank you for giving me another chance.
What did I tell you, huh? Me and the guy on the air don't have to mix, right? You know, I would love to invite you in right now, - but I would feel really weird about it.
- So don't.
- You don't have to.
- Then you won't call.
It's your choice, I'm just saying-- - I'll call you tomorrow.
- Come on, David.
I listen to your show.
This was our third date.
You're in or you're out.
We sleep together or I'm history.
- lsn't that your rule? - You wanna hang out tomorrow night? If you're offering me an extension on that deadline, I'm gonna pass.
My friends, Steve and Janet, are throwing an engagement party.
It's a luau.
[LAUGHS.]
Huh? Sounds irresistible, doesn't it? I really want you to meet my friends.
I'll think about it.
You do that.
[SMACKlNG LlPS.]
Good night.
Thanks.
I saw this, uh, townhouse today, driving back from work.
And it had two bedrooms, an office, upper and lower deck.
- Hmm, Sounds big.
- Not for two people.
Let's give it a shot.
I think it would be fun.
It would be fun someday.
I like living with Donna.
I like walking around with a mud mask.
Knowing there are nights when I don't have to look cute.
Well, mud masks are cute.
I like things the way they are.
Things are good, right? - Thought it could be better, that's all.
- I'm not saying they wouldn't be.
You're just talking about living with Donna and beauty treatments and pretty much everything but us, right? - I have to tell you something.
- Okay.
I'm listening.
- I can't make the luau.
- Oh, okay.
- Is that it? - I've got so much work at the club.
Got to stock the shelves, do the books and we are way over budget.
- Anything else? - I'm crazy about you.
Come on, Noah, I know that you might be moving out.
Matt told Kelly and-- - Kelly told you.
- Yeah.
Look, it's my problem.
I'll deal with it.
It's not our problem? I'm getting my own place, it's no big deal.
Mm-hm.
You kidding me? This club is gonna make every other club in Los Angeles look like a church picnic.
[CHUCKLES.]
Yes.
Of course I'm gonna be there.
Yeah, no, just bring whoever you want.
[KNOCKlNG ON DOOR.]
Okay, yeah, hold on.
Yeah, come in.
Hey, I'll see you there.
Okay, bye.
Whoa, wait, wait, excuse me.
Uh, that's-- You have the wrong room.
This is-- This isn't-- That is-- What are you doing? Well, here you go.
They're for your enjoyment.
Now take a ticket, take two.
- What? - So I can be your date.
Thank you very much.
Now, give me that back.
Enjoy the show, miss.
Quickly, gentlemen, we have a beautiful young woman to impress.
Uh, it was Gone with the Wind, was it not? GlNA: Heh.
- Gone with the Wind.
Oh-ho, yeah.
And it is showtime.
Ow.
GlNA: Heh, you're insane.
- All right, let's just-- - Heh, What are you--? - What is that? - Oh, wait, I'll Is that your date book? Get that out of here.
STEVE: I hope Kelly and Donna never come home.
JANET: Mm-hm.
- How's that? Feel good? - Good.
- Give me some.
- Okay.
[DOORBELL RlNGS.]
You'll get it.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
Mr.
and Mrs.
Sosna, come in, please.
ALlClA & JANET: Hi.
We've come because now we have an announcement to make.
I told him about your scare.
Some events can be a blessing in disguise.
I shouldn't have pushed you away.
STEVE: You're right.
You shouldn't have.
She's your daughter and she needs you.
I couldn't agree with you more.
Which is why we want you to move back in with us.
- Is that your announcement? - We wanna help.
With the child, with expenses, with everything.
- Well, thanks, but we're fine.
- And I'm gonna keep working.
What about school? You always talked about a graduate program in French Literature.
That was two years ago, Dad, you said that was a waste of money.
- We'll take care of it.
- And the baby.
And you can have freedom, and be a mother.
Excuse me.
But where do I fit into this happy well-funded picture you're painting? You're the child's father.
You can come visit.
Visit.
Remember how scared you were in the emergency room? - Well, you won't be with us.
- I'm fine here.
But I do need you.
Steve and I both do.
BEN: Please, Janet.
Think of what's best for the child.
Raising your baby with us or alone with him.
She said no.
Think about it.
Hey, you two.
I thought I told you to place those calls to Room 701.
- We did.
- You didn't get one, did you? Oh, did I get one? No.
I got eight.
You know what this means? - War.
- Yeah.
Get your stuff.
We're leaving.
Hey, what's going on? I got fired.
- Fired? Hector, what, why? - Because Mrs.
Haverhill found two large crabs in her bathtub this morning.
[SlGHS.]
We were just trying to keep them alive.
Yeah, listen, Hector, I put these guys up to it, okay? I will take responsibility.
And I will take care of old Mrs.
Haverhill.
- I'll send her up some schnapps.
HECTOR: Dylan, this is a hotel, - not a daycare centre.
- I know.
Listen, as a favour to me, I'm asking you, please don't do this.
I'm sorry, but I have no choice.
Oh, come-- Hector.
[SlGHS.]
Noah said the cases are waiting inside.
Wait, we'll help you.
Figure out what else we need for the party.
Do roommate things, whatever.
Roommate things? [DOOR CLOSES.]
Pedicures, collagen treatments, mud masks, heh.
I told him that I didn't wanna move in with him.
Well, at least your boyfriend asked.
Noah told me he's getting a place.
End of story.
But Noah was the one pushing to move in before Before I went temporarily insane.
Yeah, I know.
Well, is that what he said? Because if it isn't, don't assume.
Oh, it's getting over this hurdle is like our first test since we've been back together.
We're failing.
[CHUCKLES.]
We can't commit but the ultimate adolescent Steve Sanders is going to be a father and a husband.
And we're throwing his engagement party on the beach in less than two hours.
We're really behind.
My point exactly.
[ENGlNE REVS.]
Woo-hoo! That's it! Last remnants of the beach party.
I explained, the adopted sister thing just kind of popped out.
Can you please just run with it for the party? I didn't realise you were ashamed of us.
I am proud of my family.
Janet's parents are completely uptight.
They're coming here tonight to change her mind and move back in with them, all right? So for this evening can we just take a deep breath and rise above, please? - By lying? - Exactly.
- Dad.
- Hey, son.
I'm so glad you could make it.
Come on in.
Dad, look, this is very important, okay? I need you to focus.
All right.
You see the woman over my shoulder? - I sure do.
Is she single? Heh.
- Dad, that's Karen, Mom's lover.
But for tonight she's my adopted sister, okay? See, Janet's parents don't know that Mom and Your mother, my ex-wife, has a lover named Karen? Yeah, Dad, she's gay.
I thought you knew.
[CHUCKLES.]
We can talk all about that later.
But for now she's my adopted sister, your daughter, okay? Please, I'm begging you, please, please.
- All right, son.
This is your night.
- Thanks, Dad.
But no wife of mine was ever gay.
[CHUCKLES.]
No, listen I don't want you to worry about that woman getting fired because her kids, they're total nightmares.
Come on, they're just having a good time.
Yeah, in a juvenile delinquent sort of way, heh.
Dylan, Noah really wanted to be here tonight.
- Yeah, so why didn't he? - Because he's running your club.
Uh, I think a really strong drink-- Do you have any of those umbrellas? Do you think you can relieve him? Yeah, Donna, I'll think about it.
Um, actually, I'll have some wine, heh.
Tonight, please? Could you fill it all the way up, because I'm really thirsty.
- I'll see what I can do.
- Oh, my God! I'm so sorry.
[GRUNTS.]
- Do you want me to help you? - Spare me.
[DOORBELL RlNGS.]
Sorry.
Don't let her guilt trip you.
Yeah, I'm just not in much of a luau kind of mood anyway.
Oh, me neither.
These people give me a headache.
How did your mother ever marry that man? - Oh, Mr.
and Mrs.
Sosna, hello.
RUSH: Hello, everybody.
And how's my baby girl tonight? Why, you must be the Sosnas.
I'm Rush Sanders, Steve's dad.
How do you do? My wife, Michelle.
Michelle, this is Karen, my daughter.
- Uh, is Steve's mother here? - Pumpkin, where's mommy? She's on location.
She's a wonderful actress, heh.
She can fake anything.
[THUNDER BOOMS.]
Sis, Dad, look.
Poi.
[DOORBELL RlNGS.]
I'll get it.
- Hi.
Can I help you? - I'm a special guest.
- Is Rush Sanders here? - Trish.
- Rush.
Hi.
- You're here, huh? - Dad, who's your friend? - The entertainment.
STEVE: What? - I thought it was a bachelor party.
STEVE: Unh, thanks so much for coming but we're not gonna need your services.
TRlSH: That's David Silver.
[STEVE GRUNTS.]
Hi, I'm sorry, you are? - This is, uh-- - Trish.
- Our prospective nanny.
TRlSH: Heh.
Promise me you'll keep looking.
David Silver.
I recognise you.
- Can you take this to Robin? - I listen to your show.
- And I've seen your face around town.
- Yeah? - Um, can I have your autograph? - Yeah, yeah, sure.
Great.
So how'd that third date go? I'm gonna need a napkin.
No, no, no.
Sign here.
More poi anyone? - Heh, you're not serious.
- David, come on.
Live a little.
Ugh, so the third date.
Did you sleep with her? - Did you get some? Come on.
- Yeah, yeah, tons, all right? Thanks.
Thanks a lot.
You could try to explain but what could you possibly say? It's all just a phase.
Samantha's always trying new things.
I can understand your feeling of emasculation.
Mm-hm, I bet you can.
Can you tell when a woman fakes an orgasm? Yes, absolutely.
That's not what mom says.
I got something you don't have.
- Penis envy? - All right, that does it.
Come on.
You and me in bed.
Right now.
Your father and your sister? Come on, Michelle.
Great.
BEN: Get your coat.
Hold on a second, I have a confession to make.
That woman, she's not my sister.
It doesn't matter.
I've seen enough.
My mom's gay.
Karen is her lover.
Well, that changes everything.
- We don't care who your family is.
STEVE: That is so not true.
You don't even know me and you judge me.
We know you run a gossip sheet.
It's garbage.
- I work there too, Dad.
- You said it was temporary.
A lark.
Until you met him.
ALlClA: We only came here to get you to move home.
You're wasting your time.
You're wasting our daughter's potential.
Janet, you're a smart girl.
You wanted grad school.
Have you noticed that my life's gone in a different direction, Daddy? That I'm happy? - Do you even care? - Of course we do.
You're throwing your life away.
That's right, Dad, it's my life.
And my choices.
Admit it, you're not disappointed in the man I've chosen, - you're disappointed in me.
- You're right.
We are.
[BOTH CHUCKLE.]
- I gotta get to the club, man.
- Oh, um, well, don't go yet.
Wait just one second.
NOAH: Now, we want stripping, lap-dancing anything the customer wants.
[CELL PHONE RlNGlNG.]
[LOUNGE MUSlC PLAYlNG ON STEREO.]
- Hello? - Noah, listen, - you better be done with auditions.
- I need another hour.
No, just listen to me.
Donna is guilt-tripping Dylan about the hours you're putting in and he's on his way down there.
- I need another half an hour.
- He's coming right now! - Well, stop him.
- How? I don't know.
Use your head.
Improvise.
Do something.
No, Noah, l-- Hello? Noah? [GRUNTS.]
Um, my headache seems to have disappeared.
- Yeah, so did your clothes.
- Oh, yeah.
[CHUCKLES.]
- You sure you have to go to work? - Yeah.
Um, this looks like a job for me.
Your parents wanna send you to the grad school, and I've got you digging through celebrity trash.
Well, maybe I will get my Master's.
Are you afraid that I won't be able to take care of you and the baby? No, I'm not.
Well, I'm kind of scared that if you choose me over your family that you're gonna resent me.
My family's no consolation prize.
It's my father that's making me choose, okay? Not you.
Then there's this culture that I know nothing about.
- You never speak Japanese.
- I hardly know any.
Neither will your kid.
[SlGHS.]
The worst part about your family, they have a point.
Thanks to an anonymous donation, we've reopened our after-school program.
DYLAN: Hmm.
- Go on.
Go.
Dylan, I got your message.
You said it was important.
Yes, it is important, Hector.
It's important for you to know that the hotel will no longer be functioning as a daycare centre seeing as how this place is open for business.
Does that mean I could have my job back? You know, I spoke with old Mrs.
Haverhill and, she's, uh-- She's feeling no pain.
- Please, Hector.
- I suppose.
Heh, thank you.
But I'm expecting some schnapps.
Oh, and some schnapps you shall get.
You know, we could use a guy like you around here.
No, I don't think so.
I'm not really very good with kids.
Hmm, I don't know about that.
[ALL CHUCKLE.]
Trust me, I've been running this place for two years now.
Kids only mess with the grown-ups they like.
- Well, if you'll excuse me.
- Okay.
Thank you.
I won't disappoint you.
[CHUCKLES.]
Boy, are you gonna get it.
MATT: Here we go.
Okay, we got the answer to our problems.
- Tails, I move out.
- Heads, I do.
We need to talk.
It just kills me that we're gonna let a coin decide what we're gonna do.
You mean, what I'm gonna do.
Are we gonna talk about this? Because I really want to.
Okay, what do you wanna talk about? Us moving in together? - Maybe.
- Heh.
We've already been down that road before.
- You said no.
- I know.
I just-- I freaked out when we were looking for places.
- It's a big decision.
- Yeah, it is.
You know all that stuff I said about liking how and where I live? Yeah, something about mud masks, if I recall.
Part of me wants to live with you so bad.
- But? - I'm confused.
Steve and Janet are getting married.
They're having a baby.
- And how does that affect us? - I feel left behind.
And I don't wanna commit to living with you just because I feel like my life is passing me by.
- Does that make any sense? - No, you're 25 years old.
I feel a lot older than 25.
- Well, I understand.
- I know you do.
- That's why I love you.
- And I love you too.
Now root for me because I hate packing.
Come on.
You ready? Here we go.
Let's do it.
- Noah and I are moving in together.
- Heh.
See, heads, tails, we win.
I want us to live together.
- Are you sure? - Absolutely.
[CHUCKLES.]
- Congratulations.
- Yeah, let's, uh, go out and celebrate.
I have to go to work right now.
But we are gonna celebrate when I get back.
You bet we are.
NOAH: See you.
- All right.
STEVE: Thank you all for coming.
Let's try this one more time.
We wanted to apologise for all the mistakes we've made.
We're not proud of the way we behaved at the luau.
And we want you to know we've considered your advice.
I know you think this is a shotgun wedding.
I'm not holding a gun.
We've begged Janet not to marry your son.
Because you don't think he's good enough for me.
Wait, wait a minute.
Who are you, the emperor of Siam? That's Thailand by the way, not Japan.
RUSH: Well, you're in America now, buddy.
Where we've lived and done business for 43 years.
All right, stop this, all right? Look, it's not about race or class or stupid things that we've said and done.
It's about the fact that Steve and I love each other and we're getting married.
I would have proposed eventually.
Just so you know.
This baby This baby's just an added bonus.
So you can be happy for us and be a part of this child's life.
And you can share all the things that you have to offer.
Or you could sit back and wait and see if we fail.
JANET: It's your choice.
STEVE: Because right now, we have our own family to think about.
- You weren't gonna tell me, were you? - About what? About your anonymous contribution to the community centre.
- Oh, Hector.
He ratted me out.
- Hector's a rat.
He's proud, though.
Kiss me.
Ugh, lift your head.
[GRUNTS.]
You know, you don't have to go.
That's a switch.
Yeah, I'm a little slow on the uptake, but I learn.
[CHUCKLES.]
You know, despite how hard you try to hide it you can be a pretty great guy.
You know that? Sometimes.
- So stay with me.
- I can't.
[ROCK MUSlC PLAYlNG ON STEREO.]
- Hey, what's up? - I feel like a pimp.
You look like a pimp.
Give me numbers.
Three grand and change, your half.
Whoa! My hal--? My half? - Yeah, I'm doing this for Donna, okay? - I know.
That's so romantic.
I'm doing this for me, me.
- You didn't pick up the phone, so - No, I'm picking up, selectively.
I'm just talking to you right now because I'm curious.
Did we sleep together again tonight? Was it good for me, David, huh? Yeah, we did.
And I was great.
Robin, I don't know why I lied about that.
Because you're David Silver.
You shoot, you score, right? Something like that.
You know, when I was in high school, I wasn't like I am now.
I never would have had a radio guy with a three-date rule.
I fell in love with this girl and I actually waited years before I slept with her.
David, It's been a really long time since I found somebody that I could trust.
I got to be honest with you, you scare me.
Because when I see you standing at my door I don't know which guy you are standing there.
It's me.
- Robin, it's just me.
- Whoever that is.
But I got to tell you that guy that you talk about from high school Yeah.
That's the guy that I would have liked to have met.
