Hello, good to see you.

Hi.

It's everything I never wore.

You're funny.

Hmm.

So...

Well...

We decided that we would use

this time to be with family.

First we're gonna go to West

Virginia, see my sister

and her husband and the two boys.

Even though we just saw them.

We just saw them.

And then Lacey wants to go to

her stepfather's in Aspen

so that she can tell him to f*** off.

And also ski!

And ski.

Great!

- Yeah.

Karen?

Oh.

Um... Hmm.

Okay, well, I think I'm finally

gonna take that pottery class.

And... Well, I'm gonna

eat whatever I want,

and totally not even care. Just...

Go, girl.

And maybe I'll, um,

be spending a Iittle time

with someone special.

Yeah.

Oh, me? Let's see...

What was the question?

Qu ser, ser!

We're gonna ski first, and

then she's gonna tell...

Because it is a different world now.

It's a different world.

The sky is falling.

And it's raining p*ssy!

It's raining p*ssy

Dude, ever since Deliverance, man,

I've been with a different girl every day.

And they don't care about

getting pregnant.

They don't care about diseases,

or are you gonna call them back,

or can you provide for them,

or do you have a small dick,

or are you related. AII right?

And it's Iike the apocalypse...

The apocalypse has Ieveled the field, man.

Oh, my God. Do you want to

double-stuff that cookie?

Do you want to double-stuff

that cookie with me?

Two chefs in the kitchen

We're double-stuffing the

cookie Dodge and Roache

You guys, Iook! Sarah and

Dave brought heroin.

Put some Radiohead on.

I want to do heroin to Radiohead.

I'm kidding! It's not.

It can't hurt you unless you

get about this close to it.

Are you hiding?

Yes.

You don't have to do heroin if

you don't want to, sweetie.
