Still feels weird.

My kids.

Still feels odd to say it.

'Cause it doesn't

seem real to me.

- Oh, I'm Dara and I'm

married to Gilbert.

I'm Dara and I'm Gilbert's wife.

- This is the first

I've heard of it.

- Nice to meet you.

- Yeah, okay.

(laughing)

- He never had a

girlfriend by the way.

He never had a relationship.

Then he ends up with a

beautiful girl with two kids?

There's hope for everyone.

- Oh, come in.

- Oh, yeah.

- Nice to meet you.

I'm the mother.

(light music)

- Okay so this picture is a

family picture from this year.

Max, Dara, Gilbert, and me.

- Max Gottfried.

- Say nice to meet you.

- Nice to meet you.

- And this picture was

from two years ago.

- [Neil] Who's that?

- It's the same people there.

(laughing)

It's the same people

in this picture.

I already told you.

- He does, he tells

jokes to people.

- And he sells books and movies.

- Yeah.

- That what he does?

- And there's toys of him

and stuffed animals of him.

- Um...

(laughing)

- Not really.

- Not really, not really.

(laughing)

- Daddy.

Want some candy, you

want the gummies Lily?

- I don't have gummies.

Love you.

- [Max] Quick Lily, love

you Daddy, love you Daddy!

- Bye bye, bye, bye!

- Bye.

- Bye.

- Quite often I look at my life

as a Twilight Zone episode

like those episodes

where a guy wakes up

and he's in this totally

different world,

totally different life.

I wake up and I go what

are these other clothes

hanging here and what's

this weird apartment

where the furniture matches?

And they go why,

you're married sir.

What so me and some

woman live here?

Yes, you a woman

and two children

that are your children sir.

(laughs)

I don't think I could

have imagined it

and I wish I can

enjoy things fully,

but I feel like I

still haven't woken up

and said oh, this is my life.

(phone ringing)

Let me just see

if this is Dara's.

(beeping)

Hello, hello?

- [Gilbert] Eventually,

Neil's here.

- Uh yeah it means f*** you.

- Okay.

(beeps)

(laughing)

- When I first met Gilbert--

- I did nothing but clean.

- There was nothing

dirty in his act.

He would not say one

dirty word in his act.

For a long time.

It wasn't until The

Aristocrats, right?

- Maybe.

- You were like adamant

about staying clean.

- Yeah.

- You were the

complete opposite.

- I was like Art Linkletter

they used to compare me to.

- No 'cause you used

to say that you thought

that it was easy to work dirty.

- Yeah.

Yeah like f*** and sh*t c*nt

and blowj*b and dick and p*ssy.

Those words I never say.

- You never used to say that.

When we first started dating--

- P*ssy.

- You were adamant about

having a clean act.
