for a buzz cut.

Why don't I give you a buzz cut?

Okay, stop.

Sweetheart, your hair is beautiful

just the way it is.

I don't want you pulling

any of your pranks tonight,

and please be good for Jenny.

I'm too old for a babysitter.

Me, too.

Katy Cooper, freeze.

I thought diamonds were forever.

Oh, no.

This is not happening.

- Hello.

- Hey, Lola, what's up?

No, this isn't Lola.

I just... I have her phone.

Welt, are you coming

to the toga party tonight?

No, I don't wanna come to a toga party.

Toga, toga, toga!

Ugh!

Hey, dude, what's your name?

You're so cute.

Alison, what was that?

Lola? Helen Anderson.

So nice to meet you.

Please come on in.

I see that you've met Alison.

- So sweet.

- Yes.

So my niece was supposed to sit,

but she flaked because of

some silly concert in the city.

So how long have you known

our Jenny?

Oh, um...

Since forever.

We share a love

of geometry and children.

- Oh, how unique.

- Yeah.

Lola, this is Bobby.

He has to finish 100 cupcakes

for his junior chef

competition tomorrow.

- Taste my frosting.

- Sure.

Oh, dig that color, dude.

- It's the melted gummy worms.

- Smart.

Oh, Bobby, you didn't.

Mom, all the great chefs improvise.

I'm never gonna win

with ordinary cupcakes.

It's not bad,

but you could kick it up a notch.

I know. It needs something.

I just have to find

the perfect ingredient.

Now, Trey is upstairs, grounded,

Alison is sulking

because of the Roller Derby,

and this little precious baby girl

is Lady Marmalade,

aren't you, my precious?

Yes, you are.

Now, she has a very big day tomorrow

at the Kennel Club,

so she needs complete relaxation,

and no stress.

No stress for my baby.

Now, very important.

The stove and the hot tub

are strictly off limits when we're gone.

Make sure that Bobby

returns the kitchen

to its pre-cupcake tidiness.

Tidiness? I'm creating.

And you would be my personal hero

if you could just toss in

a couple of loads of laundry.

- Laundry. I got it.

- Yes. Thank you, my dear.

Okay, here's the invite and my number.

- Oh, hi. I'm Hal Anderson.

- Lola.

- Nice to meet you.

- Hi.

Oh, no, we are not taking my

brand-new freshly detailed SUV

into the dirty, grimy city.

We're taking the sedan.

- You're the boss.

- Thank you.

Okay, Lola, here is my cell,

and the place we're going to be tonight.

Now, are you sure

you can handle three kids?

Oh, my gosh, what am I saying?

Of course you can.

You were recommended by Jenny.

- She taught me everything I know.

- Great.

- Hi, Jen. Come on in.

- Hi.

Oh, Mr. Cooper, that's a nice tux.

Okay, honey. Honey.

She did it again.

- That's enough.
