'Cause that gets real nasty.

[Ringing]

- Hello?

- Chad! What are you doing up so early?

- It's Mommy's birthday.

- Hey, that's right!

- Did Mom ask you to remind me?

- No.

- I'll bet she did.

- No, she didn't.!

- I'll bet she did. You can tell Daddy.

- Give me that.

- She did not!

- Go back to bed, young man.

- Stormy.

- Yeah!

How'd you know?

Two more hours. Please!

- Who else would call me at the crack of dawn?

- Hey, who was that? Chad?

- What do you want, Stormy?

- I just wanted to see what was on the agenda.

I got Chad tonight, you know.

Wanna join us?

Whoops. Sorry, sweetie.

[Sighs]

I really like the Wymans.

Don't you?

Who?

The doctor and his wife.

Marian.

And Ralph, I think his name is.

You know, the ones from the concert.

He seems, uh, kinda lofty.

Off to work early, huh?

Well, I got two birthdays today.

He's a doctor. Remember?

- And she's an artist, I think.

- Oh, yeah? What kind?

What kind? She's a painter.

- You know. She paints pictures.

- [Car Horn Honks]

- There's Vern.

- They really want us to come to dinner.

- Well, we'll see. I'm off.

- [Car Horn Honks]

- [Honking Continues]

- What does that mean?

We already agreed to go.

We made a date.

[Woman]

Bye.

- [Whistles]

- Close the door, Stuart.!

Sorry.

- [Gasps]

- [Chuckles] Got it.

- Oh, Christ.

- I think it's broken.

The little thing didn't come up.

F***.

[Grunts]

Why'd you let me sleep?

- How am I gonna explain this?

- I don't know.

- What, is it broken?

- Yeah.

Is your kid awake?
