I know.

One more minute.

I haven't seen you in,

like, forever.

Can we just move this hug along?

Hello, Philip.

(MEOWS)

Okay, honey.

So you can stay here

for as long as you want.

Carte blanche, okay?

I definitely have

to go back tonight.

Oh, tonight, right?

Tonight, I'm going back.

All right.

Well, do what you want.

Thank you.

We're in the kitchen.

Oh, Jeffrey's home?

What a shock.

Okay, don't start!

What?

Agoraphobia is not a joke.

Mama, Mama, Mama... Oh.

Hey, Em.

I thought you were Mom,

'cause you guys have, like,

the exact same voice.

LINDA:
Okay.

No, we don't.

You have the exact same

haircut, too.

You know who you have

the haircut of?

Who's that?

Harry Potter.

Harry Potter is the greatest

of all the wizards.

He's a hero

and a great role model.

So, I'll take it

as a compliment.

Mom, can I have

a chocolate milk?

Oh, God, Mama! Mama!

Yeah?

Very cold!

I didn't heat it up.

It's bread temperature.

Maybe three to four minutes

and get it nice and toasty?

We could toasty-toasty!

Don't ask Mom to toast

your bread for you!

What? ls something wrong

with your legs?

They're in a seated position.

She's already up.

I'll put the butter on myself.

Thank you, Mama.

Wow, you're gonna

butter it yourself?

Yeah, I'm gonna

butter it myself.

Does Mom feed you like a

baby bird when I'm not here?

I eat plenty. Don't worry

about my diet. Don't!

Mama! She's showing me

her food in her mouth.

No, I'm not, Mom. I'm

chewing like a person.

Then she opened her mouth

and showed it to me.

He's lying again.

Hey, guys!

This is supposed to be fun.

I know what's going on

with you, man.

Ah, please.

You got shot through the heart.

Okay, Michael's gone.

Ew.

And it sucks.

Because you know what? He was

the best you'll ever do.

Mom, can I eat upstairs?

No!

I would like to eat right

here with you, Mom. Mama.

You're so gay for Mom.

I'm not gay for Mom.

You're gay for Mom!

She's a woman.

She has a vagina.

You suck Mom's dick.

(GROANS)

Guys! Cool it!

If you keep this up,

I'm not cooking anymore

and I'm not feeding you.

Stop it.

Truce.

Truce.

LINDA:
Arthur!

Here, kitty, kitty.

Honey, have you seen Arthur?

Did he get out?

He's right there.

LINDA:
Oh, good.

Hi, okay.

Does he ever move?

Sweetie, want to watch a movie?

I don't care, Mom.

Oh, honey,

I know you feel so sad.

But everything is going

to get better, honey.

I'll tell you, when Dad left

I thought I would

never have sex again.

And I was right.

What?

But I tell you,

I am really, really relieved

that you are not going

on that trip.

Who said I'm not going

on that trip?

I'm definitely going

on that trip.

I'm just trying to pick
