Another Happy Day
Do you think mom is hot?
No. Not really.
Why?
I don't know.
She's not my type.
You don't think
she's pretty?
Like, even if
she wasn't mom?
Uh, look, every opinion
is subjective.
You know, maybe she's pretty
in the universal sense.
I mean, who the f*** knows?
I'm just saying she
doesn't do it for me.
think she's hot?
I don't know.
I mean, some people
f***ing like McDonald's.
I like McDonald's.
Right, and apparently,
you think mom is hot, so.
What took you so long?
Find yourself a nice morbidly
obese rest stop suitor
To take that much needed edge
off the family road trip?
- I just got that.
- Yeah, me too.
Mom?
Shut up and get
in the car, Elliot.
Ben, who gave you
money for that sh*t?
Dad.
Guess her bathroom tryst
was not satisfying.
Seat belts.
We good?
Um, okay.
And action!
So, Lynn.
Where are we headed?
We're going to Annapolis,
Maryland.
Hmm. And why?
Why are we going
to Annapolis, Maryland?
Because my oldest son,
your brother,
Is getting married.
Hmm. Now what is his name?
Dylan.
And, um, his bride to be?
Does she hail from Annapolis?
Yes. She does.
And what is her name?
Her name is Heather, Elliot.
Heather.
And do you like this
Heather Elliot?
she's very sweet.
Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.
So then, you have
three sons, correct?
And a daughter.
Your sister Alice.
And does this... this Alice.
Is she, uh, from
a previous marriage maybe
Or the current one?
She's from a previous one.
Hmm. And, um,
this daughter, Alice,
Does she live with you
or the ex-husband?
She lives with us, Elliot.
Hmm, and this Dylan character.
Let's return to him
for a moment.
Does he also reside with us?
That's not funny, Elliot.
Okay, well,
I'm not trying to be funny.
I'm just trying to
establish the residency
Of the two eldest children.
Yeah, well, I've had enough.
Okay, well,
maybe we'll circle
Back around to that
a little later.
We won't circle back
around to anything later.
Okay, well, um,
moving right along then.
Moving right along.
Uh, let's see.
This daughter, Alice.
Is she coming to
the wedding?
Why are you doing
this, Elliot?
Why... why am I...
You know, to document.
Document.
The... the travels
and the wedding
And just family time.
I'm not interested.
In what? You're not interested
in keeping a record?
No.
Okay, then how will we know that
any of this even took place?
You know, that it existed.
That what took place?
The wedding.
All that surrounds matrimony.
I'm sure they hired
a videographer.
True, but those guys don't
really dig deep enough.
Okay, you know what, Elliot?
I have...
Jesus f***! F***.
Turn that f***ing
camera off, Ben!
Turn it off!
Taylor, like, told me
that mom and dad
Bought grandma and
grandpa this house.
I don't wanna hear another
word from either of you
For the next 24 hours.
Well, is that,
like, true?
Do you think I'm kidding?
I will take away every f***ing
privilege you have.
Oh ho, and you are
quite privileged.
That goes for you too, Elliot.
Alice gets here
in three days.
Please, I'm begging you.
Don't make this any more
difficult for me
Than it already is.
I won't.
And no smoking.
Your grandfather already
has one foot in the grave.
But not from smoking.
It doesn't matter.
Oh, and just so
you're prepared,
The last time you went to rehab,
I told them you were in Sweden.
Sweden? What?
Jesus. I don't know
anything about Sweden.
Oh, sh*t.
Oh. Fantastic.
What happened?
Dad's heart slowed
down again.
Was he okay?
Is he alive?
He's fine.
He's all right.
They're just making sure
everything's okay.
Don't go in there.
Dad?
You can't say the
pacemaker doesn't do its job.
- Mom?
- He's stable, Doris.
Mom, are you okay?
Yes, I'm fine thanks,
don't worry.
Does that feel good?
Well, I don't understand.
He has a heart attack...
No, no, no.
It wasn't a heart attack.
The fentanyl just set
off his pacemaker.
Slowed down his heart.
Yeah, well, why didn't you
take him to the hospital?
I mean, I don't think he...
Why don't you go
get settled now.
I know you're worried,
ma'am, but he's stable.
In fact, he's fine.
Just needs to rest up a bit.
Take it easy.
In the morning, Doris,
you can give his doctor a call.
See what he thinks,
but his vitals are solid.
Yeah. I know.
Thank you so much
for coming, Jason.
I really appreciate it.
Has that wife of yours
had the baby yet?
- Two more weeks.
- Oh, good.
I gotta tell you girls,
your mother is just a doll.
You. Thanks again.
- You're welcome.
- Hey, can I ask you something?
If you took one of these
say with, like, Aderol
And you're about 130 pounds.
Could... could you stroke?
When's dinner coming?
I don't know.
Just be patient.
So, man, you all right?
You feeling all right?
You look a little pale there.
You need vitamin D.
I read...
You read that report, Donna.
It's not like I'm sick, I'm just
not really into the sun.
So it's like a trend
or something?
I think it's the Goth thing.
No, it's not Goth.
I'm not Goth.
But you always wear black.
That's Goth. He's Goth.
Brandon, isn't Elliot Goth?
Oh, god, Donna, do you remember
when he was 12 years old?
I'm, not.
Brandon pantsed him,
He was wearing Lynn's
pantyhose under his jeans?
Hysterical!
You don't still do that,
do you?
Go from fried chicken
to grilled chicken.
- Food's here!
- It's here.
What it is, is global warming.
That's exactly what it is.
The record temperature,
Was back in the 1950s.
Tell me how
that makes sense.
Where do you get this?
Actually, since 1880,
Average temperatures around
the world have risen
1.4 degrees Fahrenheit.
What is he?
Doogie Howser?
No, because Doogie Howser
was a resident surgeon.
I was scared to death when I saw
that ambulance in the driveway.
- He's in bad shape.
- He's not in bad shape.
all day with nothing to do.
But he's a fighter, mother.
He is.
Lord knows,
we've been through this before.
You couldn't kill him with
The doctor said his heart
only had 30% capacity.
Yeah, but he's
in good spirits.
Well, that's good.
Lack of oxygen!
I would just like
to say to everyone,
That I make fantastic Martinis.
Sit down.
That's original recipe,
crispy, extra crispy.
Yo, wait until you see
Heather's friends, man.
Dude, your dick
will be dying, son.
It's f***ing...
f***ing fire.
My dick will be dying?
Tell you, man, these b*tches
are f***ing delish.
Just like top notch,
you know?
It's just that p*ssy
you dream of.
Intriguing.
Hope you don't mind, man.
a little bit of llello.
No, it sure as sh*t
beats the two packs
Of Coricidin cough & cold
I ate last night.
What do you mean Alice isn't
coming until Friday?
Nothing, just that Alice
will be here Friday.
The rehearsal dinner
is on Saturday.
