A slow, painful death.

Maybe I'll put him in my spin dryer

on high heat.

That'd do it.

Barney, will you get off of her?

My dear lady, are you all right?

I have a very weak heart.

I can't stand a shock like that!

What is that dog doing in here?

This is a bank, not a pet store.

Very good, Gerald.

He wouldn't hurt you.

Excuses, excuses.

You're just like your father.

I've listened to his excuses

for 10 years, the loser!

As for you, you mangy cur...

...I'll get you...

...when you least expect it!

Oh, my heart!

I must apologize

for this most unusual....

You putz.

The old bat never looked better.

It's great. You're doing fine.

Thanks.

Hello, Gerald.

If it isn't Captain Clip-on.

Guess who almost applied

for unemployment today?

- I give up.

- You.

But Mr. Corben had second thoughts.

He gets so sentimental

about the holidays.

Imagine that.

I would've fired you in a second.

Merry Christmas to you too.

Excuse me, Mr. Jones.

Hey, Peltzer.

Look, I'm a junior

vice president at 23.

By the time I'm 25,

I'm gonna have Mr. Corben's job.

By the time I'm 30,

I'll be a millionaire.

Look at you.

You're practically supporting

your whole family.

The world's changing.

You gotta change with it.

You gotta be tough.

Tough? And no one's

tougher than you, Ger?

Don't call me that.

My name's Gerald.

Can I get you a drink?

Give me a vodka martini.

Shake, don't stir.

You work here?

Weeknights, so Dorry doesn't

have to pay an extra waitress.

That's great.

Yeah, that's swell, if you

like working for nothing.

Two more rounds for the pool table,

on the house.

You haven't seen my new apartment.

I haven't seen your old apartment.

We're talking cable.

Can we have dinner tomorrow night?

I'm working.

Why don't you tell Dorry you're sick?

He can't dock your pay.

Billy, is that you?

Yeah, Mom. It's me.

I'm in the kitchen.

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas, movie house!

Merry Christmas, emporium!

- Hi, Mom.

- Hi, sweetie.

Do you need any help?

Yeah, you could do the eggs.

Thanks.

Dad's machines work so well

the first couple of weeks, then....

Use the sink.

Is something wrong?

No, it's a sad movie.

How was your day?

It was fine.

Come on, what is it?

What's wrong?

Mrs. Deagle called again

this afternoon.

Let's not talk about it now.

Don't say anything to Dad.

Fine with me.

Don we now our gay apparel

Hi, sweetheart!

- Welcome home.

- Hey, Dad.

I'm glad you're back.

How was the trip?

It was great.

The Miracle Company, who has

the Kitchen Companion...

...might be interested

in the Bathroom Buddy.

Great!

- Thanks!

- You'll like this.

What is it? A birdcage?

No, don't shake it. Open it now.

It won't wait till Christmas.
