RV Page #5

Synopsis: The executive Bob Munro is stressed, feeling threatened of losing his job and his lifestyle, since his abusive boss Todd Mallory hired the Stanford's geek Laird to work in their soda's company. Bob has promised his wife Jamie Munro, his teenage daughter Cassie Munro and his young son Carl Munro to spend vacations in Hawaii, but Todd demands him to prepare a presentation and attend a business meeting with the owners of a family company in a merging operation scheduled in the same period. Bob hides the truth to his family, rents a recreational vehicle and tries to convince his dysfunctional family that a road trip to the Colorado Rocky Mountains would be good to bring old values back to their family. After many incidents and while in the trailers parking area, the rookie Bob is helped by the bizarre but friendly Gornicke family. They escape from the Gornickes and initiate a journey of difficulties and leaning, retrieving their forgotten family bonds.

Listen,

i'm no expert in waste management...

...but won't the fecal matter

come out the top hole there?

No, you just gotta hold it

up in the air like this:

There you go. Little bit higher.

There you go.

- Oh, like that there.

- There you go.

You sure this is gonna work?

Heck, yeah, man.

It's basic hydraulics.

Okay, Archimedes.

- Yeah.

There we go. That'll work.

You sure this will hold?

Hey, man, why would they sell you

a hose spreader...

...if you couldn't spread the hose?

It's getting old. Come on.

Open it up, Joe Joe.

It's blocked. I'll flush the line.

- Hey, Dad.

- Son.

Maybe now is the time

to confess to you that...

...your dad's not the master

I got that when you started

taking advice from morons.

Yeah. All we need is a banjo.

Oh, man. He didn't even open it up

- See? No worries.

- Yup.

- Hello.

- Bob.

Hey, Todd.

Yeah, I'm still pretty sick.

- Where's my presentation?

- Presentation?

It's the best work I've done,

not to toot my own horn...

- Yeah, you'll have it Thursday morning.

- Thursday?

No, that's not soon enough.

Tomorrow will be great.

Oh, I gotta go.

Oh, dude, that is nasty.

Don't worry, I'll get another hose.

Fire in the hole!

Here's where you made your

critical mistake.

You listened to anything

Howie and Joe Joe said.

Nice boys, but they're a couple pliers

short of a tool chest.

They're not the ones covered

in fecal matter.

That's a good point.

Travis Gornicke.

Bob Munro.
