I do not remember

Jersey being this cold.

Well, it's been uncommonly

cold this month.

We've gone through

seven bags of rock salt.

Your house is just

so quaint, Mrs. Brander,

I mean, Chris, you never told me

you were so provincial.

It's like a true

rags to riches story,

but I've always found the middle class to

be just so much more real.

I mean, isn't Chris great?

Yeah, he is a nice boy.

You know, he usually

flies us out to Los Angeles.

It's been, uh...

oh, nine, 10...

- It's 10 years. Yeah.

- 10?

since he's been home.

- All right. Good job, Dougie.

- Oh, hi, honey!

Oh my God.

- Mikey.

- Oh my God!

- Is that my Christmas present?

- Sam, my younger brother Mike.

- Samantha James.

- Samantha James.

Mike Brander.

It is an honor.

I have your poster

on my wall,

- but you are way hotter in person.

- I know!

- You have her poster on your wall?

- Yeah.

I slapped the ham

to it like an hour ago.

What ham did you slap?

Not the ham

that I just bought?

Oh, Mrs. Brander, do you have

anything else besides ham?

Because I'm on

the Perricone diet

and I need salmon

like now.

I love salmon. It's the prettiest

color for bedrooms.

- So relaxing.

- I'm gonna start drinking.

Um, does anybody want anything?

Some coffee?

Maybe some salmon

or something?

Just gonna...

yeah.

Mike! Good to be home.

Oh, boy. Okay.

Hi. Yes, I know,

very exciting.

Hi. Hi.

Oh. Chris,

let's get it to go.

People are staring at me.

Oh my God...

plastic menus!

Well, this isn't gonna work,

is it now, Chris?

Chris?

Excuse me, but I was

wondering if you think

America will ever switch

to the metric system?

Well, that's

a very interesting...

- Oh my God! Chris!

- I don't believe this!

- Oh! God, you look great!

- I don't... you look great!

- Well, thank you! How you been?

- We're married.

- You're married!

- Married?

- Oh, yeah, we're married, we got a kid. TJ.

- We have a son. TJ.

- TJ!

- He looks like me. He's got Clark's eyes...

Oh my God!

Where does the time go?

He's like the creative mind kid, he's like,

brilliant and you can meet him.

- That's great!

- God, look at those teeth!

Those are some nice veneers

you got, my friend.

- Don't tell me that you're a dentist.

- A dentist?

- I totally sold out, dude.

- Hey, you and me both, buddy.

Hey, lover, aren't you

gonna introduce me, huh?

Yes!

Samantha, these are

my old friends.

This is Clark,

this is Darla.

Your names are

"Clark" and "Darla"?

- Yeah.

- Mm-hm.

Oh my God,

that is so cute!

I just wanna

eat you both up!

Okay, I am gonna go

to the little girl's room.
