and they can feel

when the other one's hurt.

Oh, Jack and I can do that.

What? Why are you

making a face?

When we were kids, you felt

it when I broke my ankle.

I felt it 'cause

you fell on my head.

You like that one? Yeah.

All right, good, good.

Oh, please!

Tell me you don't feel this.

I didn't feel it.

Maybe if you did it harder.

Little harder.

No, Jill. Stop it.

He's kidding. What?

Donkey fight!

Jill, are you okay?

Yeah, no, I'm fine.

Gary, that was...

He didn't 100% connect.

Feel that, Daddy?

I... I actually did

feel something there.

Pride in my son.

Oh, will you stop it already?

These sweet potatoes need salt.

I'm so sick of that.

Why are you so afraid to

admit that we are connected?

Face it.

We shared Mom's womb.

We were womb-mates.

Oh, that is just disgusting.

I have an idea.

On the show,

there were these twins,

and they finished

each other's sentences.

Jack, maybe you could

start a sentence,

and Jill, you could finish it.

No. No.

Come on, Daddy, please!

Please, Daddy, please!

Please. Oh, my God.

Ready to receive mental images.

Beep, beep, beep, beep,

beep, beep, beep, beep...

All right, will you stop?

You're scaring him.

That's just noises

she's making.

Okay, ready? Yes.

I'm very tired, so I'm going to

Go to the supermarket.

No, I'm going to sleep.

What is... Why would I go to

a supermarket if I was tired'?

That's what I would do.

The cold air

always wakes you up.

Isn't it nice when it's...

You go over there in

the frozen food section?

God bless...

You! God bless you!

I finished your sentence.

Got you, Pagogo.

What's Pagogo?

Oh, it's... It's a name

that Aunt Jill used to call your

dad when they were growing up.

I was Pokee, and your

father was Pagogo.

We had our own secret language.

Ook maga do do, Pagogo.

I have no idea

what those words mean,

nor have I ever known

what those words meant.

You do know what they mean,

and you're lying right now.

"Ook maga do do"

means "I love you."

"Bongi" means "thank you."

"Klapa" means "left."

Hey, do you remember what

"Locky mocky koko" means'?

Mmm. What does it mean again?

Jack, don't.

It means, "I can't

stand you being here!"

This is really awkward.

I'm going to go.

Dessert is coming.

I'm full.

Okay...

I love how nice we are

to this homeless man,

a person we don't even know,

who probably is pretending

to be homeless!

You don't look homeless to me!

You're fat! You're al-Qaeda!

Sofia, why don't you

go upstairs?

No, Mom, this is my favorite

part of Thanksgiving.

You know what? I'm leaving.

I'm leaving. That's it.

That's it. I'm going.

I am going!

I hope you're happy!

I'm sleeping out here
