A Weekend with the Family Page #2

Synopsis: A young attorney looks to gain a position at a prestigious law firm while secretly dating his boss' daughter, who he's hoping to marry; but when his loving girlfriend decides to arrange a surprise family weekend get-together, his plans blow up in his face, especially with the arrival of his ghetto-fied family, the Stankershets. Travis and Courtney portray love interests who struggle to hold on to their relationship all while their two families wage war in an explosion of hilarity. It's the far east against the deep south; strict, traditional, Korean customs versus a backwards, country way of life. In the end, Travis must find a way to make the two families peacefully co-exist long enough for him to propose to the woman he loves.

-[Courtney] Wake his ass up.

All right, Steve, you ready?

[Steve] Yeah.

[Courtney] All right. Okay, all right.

Thank you, girl.

Open up.

Ah...

[Courtney] Ew!

[Travis] So what you think?

Are we the two new hotshot attorneys

at Clancy Lynch and associates?

I felt pretty good about myself today.

[both talking excitedly]

[John] That's what I like to see.

You guys are always working.

Great work today, fellas.

You guys really pulled it off.

Thank you, Mr. Clancy.

You guys should be

really proud of yourselves.

I don't remember seeing

a rookie win record like that

since... Hell, myself.

-That's a good thing, right?

-Yes, of course, it is.

We got our eye on you two.

I specially got my eye on you, young man.

Travis, you got a bright future

ahead of you.

Thank you, Mr. Clancy.

Yeah, well, you know what, call me John.

You're part of the family now.

This is the pen!

The board voted, and they will make

their official announcement

on Monday morning.

I don't know what to say!

-John...

-Don't say anything.

Look, just show up at work

on Monday morning,

bright-eyed and bushy-tailed,

ready to work.

I expect you to arrive early

and leave late, just like me.

-Just like you.

-Just like me. Good.

Let me get outta here before my wife

sends out the FBI for me.

But anyway, you guys

enjoy yourselves tonight, you deserve it.

-Have a drink on me.

-Thank you...

John!

[both whisper in amazement]

[both start shouting excitedly]

-I take it you won your case today?

-Yeah.

Fourteen in a row.

Ugh! Smells like Joey drowned you

in shots.

Yeah.

Joey went for the big one tonight.

I swear, that boy will never change.

Get some rest, babe. I'm proud of you.

[sleepily] After this weekend

our whole lives are just gonna change.

"You're part of the family now."

[mouthing] What?

[phone rings]

Boy, didn't I tell you

I just don't feel like it?

if your thirsty ass call me

one more damn time...

Rosie, it's me.

He's gonna ask to marry him this weekend.

He's gonna ask you to marry him

this weekend!

Girl, yes. What do I do?

Calm down.

I mean, girl, I was in my deep REM sleep.

I still got my damn mask on.

Okay, how do you know for sure?

'Cause he just came in here drunk,

and he said, and I quote,

"After this weekend our whole lives

are gonna change."

Then, he passed out.

Oh, my gosh, girl, he's gonna ask you

to marry him!

Okay, so what you gonna do?

Girl, I don't know,

that's why I called you.

Okay, right.

I want him to ask me really bad,

but I know if he does it

before he meets my family,

my dad will not respect him.

Travis will be crushed.

-Is it really that serious, Court?

-You have not met John Clancy.
