I can't spend the night.

I got a wife and family.

Joey, you don't love your wife.

Who says so?

Of course I love her.

Just because I make love to you

doesn't mean I don't love her.

What kind of marriage is that?

It's a good marriage.

I buy the food, she cooks it.

- I can cook for you.

- You can't cook for me.

You're not my wife.

You're not even Italian.

Neither is your wife. She's

some kind of Eurasian or something.

No, she's not from there. She's-

Her mother's from Yugoslavia.

It's a good Catholic country.

Right next to Italy.

In fact, it used to be part of Italy.

I think.

Joey, this isn't Italy. This is America.

Hey, America was discovered by one

Italian, and it's named after another.

So what? What does that prove?

It proves that America

is an Italian country. I gotta go.

Joey, if you're such a good Catholic,

why do you commit adultery?

I'm a man.

I got a lot of hormones in my body.

He jumped so high, high, high

He hit the sky, sky, sky

And didn't come back, back, back

Till the Fourth of July, ly, ly

Okay, here we go again.

Last time. One, two, three.

Miss Mary Mac, Mac, Mac

All dressed in black, black, black

With silver buttons, buttons, buttons

All down her back, back, back

She asked her mother, mother, mother

For 50 cents, cents, cents

To watch the elephants, elephants

Jump over the fence, fence, fence

They jumped so high, high, high

They hit the sky, sky, sky

And didn't come back, back, back

Till the Fourth of July, ly, ly

Then they got worried, worried, worried

And went to Hong Kong, Kong, Kong

To see the King Kong, Kong, Kong

To get his advice, vice, vice

But he didn't have any, any, any

So they went back home, home, home

And didn't come back, back, back...

With silver buttons, buttons, buttons

All down her back, back, back

Rosalie, listen to this.

It says here some woman was eaten alive

by her own houseplants.

Can you imagine?

Mama, want more coffee?

If not, I'm gonna throw it out.

Oh, no. Go ahead. Throw it out.

Otherwise,

I'll be in the bathroom all night.

Remember how your father

used to drink a big cup of black coffee...

...every night right before bed?

- Yeah, boiling hot too.

- With four sugars.

Very sweet.

Just like him.

You know...

...I miss him every day.

I forget almost everything

I hate about him.

Yeah, I know. I miss him too.

I got it.

He jumped so high, high, high

He hit the sky, sky, sky

- Hey, Devo.

- Hello.

Come on in.

How you doing?

I'm doing good.

I was just gonna catch the end

of the ball game. Wanna watch?

Oh, no, thank you. I think I'll visit

with Rosalie and Mama Nadja.

- Sure. They're in the kitchen.

- Thank you.

What do I do?
