a big deal if you say no.

I just would love to go.

And if I'm allowed to go,

I would much rather go on the jet.

Got it.

- Okay, I love you.

- I love you.

- Hey, China.

- Yeah?

Have you, uh, have you thought

at all about what you're gonna do?

With your life?

I don't know, Daddy.

Okay, w-w-we'll talk about it, okay?

Yeah.

Hi.

Hey, can you look into uh,

availability on a jet

for next week?

Just find out if there's any days

it's not being used.

Yes, no, for me, I mean...

Yeah, just... okay? Yeah, thanks.

Yeah?

The fat one is here.

Oh, okay.

Should I let her in?

Oh, I guess she's here, so...

Yes, sir, I already let her in.

Yup, thanks, Albert.

Hey, Maggie.

Glen.

What is up?

- Nothin'

- Awesome.

Maggie?

Hi, baby!

Maggie!

Oh, my God! Look at you.

You got so f***ing tan.

F*** off!

Baby!

It's March in New York and you

look like a schwoogie came all over you.

- Oh.

- Maggie.

What's a schwoogie?

It's Jewish for n*gger.

No, it's not!

- Yes, it is.

- Maggie.

But not in a bad way.

Wait, Maggie, I miss you.

- I miss you so much.

- I miss you, I miss you too.

- Sweetheart.

- Why don't I ever see you anymore?

Well, that's your stupid dad's fault

for breaking up with me.

Ugh!

I did not break up with you.

No, no, you totally married me.

Totally.

Chine, go put on some clothes,

I'm gonna take you to lunch.

And then we're gonna go buy some

stuff with your dad's credit card.

Okay. I can go like this though.

No, honey.

I don't wanna get poked in the

face by every boner in New York.

Go throw on a burqa or something.

Okay, Maggie.

Oh, Daddy, is it okay

if I go out with Maggie?

I didn't know

if you wanted to make plans.

- No, it's fine.

- Okay, I love you.

- I love you too.

- Oh!

Daddy, also, I wanna

go to Brooklyn tonight.

Would you mind booking me a car?

It's fine. Sure.

Okay, I love you.

I love you too.

What?

Nothing. You're a bad father.

What?

If your 17-year-old daughter

says, "I love you" all the time,

that means you're

doing something wrong.

Why?

Because, Glen, she's seventeen.

It's a complicated age.

A girl that age is getting into trouble.

And if she "loves" her "daddy",

that means you're doing nothing.

You know something, Maggie?

I appreciate you staying in her life

since we-we broke up.

She loves you very much

but you're not her mom.

And you're not my wife.

So...

let's maybe have

some boundaries, okay?

Oh, God.

Did you just say all of that?

Ugh, yes.

Yecch.

God. Jesus, Glen.

You suck so bad.

Seriously, man!

You suck. Look at you.

"Oh...

"Er... I appreciate you

staying in her life

but let's have a boundary", Oooh!
