here? What's your name?

Max.

- Who let this kid in here?

What's this, an amusement park?

Well, Mack,

the tour is over.

It's not Mack.

It's Max.

Maxwell.

- Okay, Maxwell.

- Connor.

Maxwell Connor.

You're my son.

Hey, everybody, quiet down,

quiet down! Check this out!

- This is my boy,

Maxwell Matteo.

- I want you to meet everybody.

This is Cindi.- Hi, Max.

- And this is Frankie over here.

- Hey.

And that's Theo over there.

And you know who this is.

- What's up, little Max?

- Come over here.

And this amazing wonder

is Asia Moon. Son of a gun.

I can't believe it! Look how

big you got! This is my son.

- Champagne?

- What, are you stupid? He's a kid.

Get that outta here. Hey,

don't we have some pizza comin'?

You like pizza, kid? Come over here.

I want you to check something out.

You like music? Come here. Sit

down, sit down. Listen to this.

So what do you think?

Is this place smokin' or what?

- How old are you?

- Twelve.

Where the hell's the pizza?

Three large, two medium. Pizza

'Zaam's here to bust the tedium.

You know him?

- What?

- Maybe a football or a basketball?

I don't think rewarding him

is a very good idea right now.

It's not to reward him.

- Hi, guys.

- It's to straighten him out.

Where have you been, hmm? Not

at school. You are grounded!

- I've really had it this time, Max.

- Hold it, hold it.

- Two days you have not been-- -

Wait a minute. Wait a minute, Alice.

- What?

- Why don't we sit down and talk?

- Because I am not finished.

- I'm a little busy.

Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no.

One second, Mr. Connor.

You know, we are going to start

changing the way things work around here.

From now on, you're gonna come home from

school, and you're gonna start doing chores.

- ''Chores''?

- Yes, chores.

What do you mean, chores? Milk the

cows, feed chickens? I don't get it.

- Max, this is exactly the thing...

- All right, all right.

- That is really putting me over the edge.

- Wait a minute. Forget chores.

Forget chores. What we mean

is, we want to help you.

We're gonna get you a tutor, and I'd

like to start picking you up after school.

He's not picking me up after school. I

don't have to listen to you, all right?

You're not my father. You

will never be my father!

- You watch your mouth.

- Watch yours! You lied to me!

You told me my father wasn't

here, but he is! I've seen him!

Max.

Please.

Wait.

You're right.

I did lie.

Your father showed up a

couple of months ago and...

I didn't know

what to do.

Why did he leave?

Sometimes things just don't

turn out the way you plan.

I know that I'm not the best

mother in the world, Max...

but I want you

to have a real father...
