I can only hope that

when it comes to fathers,

the children in this school

are as lucky as Mary is.

Yeah, you're in.

Congratulations.

Look at you.

What's the matter?

- Stuff.

- What kind of stuff?

I don't know.

I feel different.

- Says who?

- People.

Oh. Who cares

what people think?

- People think I'm different.

- You are.

Yeah, well, so,

see?

That's good.

Listen, let me

tell you something here.

It's okay

to be different.

You don't have to be

like everybody else.

- Okay?

- Okay.

Okay, now,

unfortunately, your daddy

has to go off and be famous.

But you...

a-ha-ha.

But you are mine

forever!

Anything you want.

Money's no object.

- Hamburgers look great!

- What can I get for you?

Do you have a penis?

Can we hear

your specials?

This table's

a little wobbly.

Give us a minute.

Mary, that's a very adult word.

Where did you hear it?

Jenny said her father

and brother have a penis.

Peter, you're

the architect.

You explain it

to her.

The penis is...

the urinary and

copulatory organ...

of the male mammal.

It's composed

primarily...

Thank you.

- What?

- Did you memorize that?

I bet he says that

to all the girls.

Mary and I are

going to wash our hands.

I can't believe

she said that.

- I didn't know about sex

until I was in college.

- I'm stunned!

- I was exaggerating.

- I'm talking about Mary.

She's not

a baby anymore.

That one word was

like a trumpet...

announcing

her adulthood.

- First comes penis, then...

- Pete, can you say it louder?

She's susceptible

to the outside world,

- boys, sex.

- You're overreacting.

Yeah, what's a genital

here and there?

Be quiet.

They're coming.

Stop, Peter,

stop.

I can't.

My lips are stuck.

- It tickles!

- I can't get 'em unstuck.

- What are you doing?

- His lips are stuck.

Whoa! Whoa!

Boy, that was

a close one!

- Good night. I gotta go.

- Good night.

You two

are crazy!

It's time for you

to go to bed, little lady.

- Have sweet dreams.

- Okay.

Hi, Stan.

How you doing?

- Hello, gorgeous.

- Hello, darling.

- Look what Mary made for you.

- What a talent.

Love, I need

to talk to you.

I did something wrong

last night, didn't I?

- I missed a cue at

the end of the first act?

- Sylvia, relax.

You were your

brilliant self.

I have been asked

to direct...

"Midsummer Night's Dream"

at The National.

Really?

Oh, congratulations!

I want you

to play Helena.

- Me?

- Yes, you'll be sensational!

- Will you do it?

- I'd love to do it.

- But?

- Mary's starting school here.

Take her. We do have

schools in England.

- Her family is here.

- Your roommates, you mean?

- They're more than roommates.

- I realize that.
