Smother

Hi, you've reached Noah and Clare.

Leave a message at the-

Hi, it's Mom.

I hope I'm not bothering you.

Happy Halloween.

You probably work now so you can

just call me when you get home.

I mean you actually don't

have to call me and tell,

you know it's obviously

not important,

But if you want to call me,

please feel free to.

I just wanted to ask you... Sh*t...

I can't remember why I called now.

Anyway, I'm sleeping so much

better with this new prescription

and my jaw only clicks now

when I yawn or chew.

And I, You know what.

I remember why I called now.

Do you have my VCR manual in...

Hang on a second.

My toast just popped.

Hold on, Sammi.

Who's on the phone now?

What's that, uh?!

Who's on the phone?!

What do you mean?

Somebody's on the phone?!

Hello? Hello? There's nobody

on the phone, Gene.

I think your mom's messages

are kidding shorter.

You know how people worry about

their mothers dying?

I worry mine's gonna live forever.

There must be another

exercise I can do...

Who's the physical therapist,

Bob, you or me?

You...

All right! Keep those knees up!

We'll see some high step in!

Work that ACL!

Noah, your mom's on line one.

Tell her I'm busy, would you?

Doing great, Bob.

You look like an antelope here.

Cooper, I need you

in my office. Now

Technically, Dana, it's

your dad's office, not yours.

Yeah? That's what he thinks.

Today, Cooper.

That's good, Bob.

Take a rest.

Thank god...

Dad, I have Cooper here.

We need to take your ticket,

then I have me

first class on the website.

Didn't I tell you five

Dana! What time are we doing

the Cooper thing?

He's here now.

Put him on.

He is.

Hello, Ralph.

All right, no small talk.

I've asked Dana to meet with you

to discuss the mission you have. Dana.

We've been watching you as

Head PT now for several months,

and it's become increasingly clear

that you're not

meeting company standards.

Show personae case of number.

These are the billing guidelines

that have been established for you.

And these are the actual totals

that you've billed out.

Quite a discrepancy,

wouldn't you say?

Oh, I would say these goals are

completely unrealistic.

You're the boss now.

I didn't get the memo.

Look, I told you before, Ralph,

I'm not going to over

bill patients for you.

It's unethical.

Are you calling me a fraud?

The bottom line is this.

We've given you plenty of chances

to get with the program

and you failed.

I'm sorry to say this,

but-Actually, I'm not-

We're gonna have to let you go.

You're firing me?

You're just one germen, genius

It's not a reflection of you

as a person.

How is that not a reflect on me

as a person?

Have your testicles

even descended yet?

Did he just say testicles?

I built this office for you!

Every doctor that refers patients

to us is because of me!

Every supplier connection

is because of me!

Christ, I hit the bang winning home run

against Silverman's

Orthopedic All-Stars

and won a championship for you!

Only because I got

a two-out hit in the ninth

and kept the inning alive!

Yeah, I guess the shortstop

had a prosthetic leg!

You hit it to his weak side!

That's no pride.

Go to hell, Cooper!

I never want to see you

in my office again.

Dana, call security.

Gladly.

Calm Down.

What's that noise?

Are you all right?

Don't let him take the spin!

But the wise little Alice was

not going to do that in a hurry.

"No, I'll look first," she said,

for she had read several

nice little stories

about children who had got burnt,

and eaten up by wild beasts,

and other unpleasant things,

Sorry guys. Sorry! Sit tight! OK?

Mrs. Cooper's class.

Hello, Mrs. Cooper, it's me.

Hi me.

So I have some good news

and somebad news.

What happened?

The bad news is I got fired.

But the good news is I'm gonna

start my own practice

two years ahead of schedule.

Ralph fired you?

No, Dana did.

Ralph was on speakerphone.

Oh my God!

What an a**hole.

Look, honey, I'm really sorry,

but I'm in the middle of class

right now.

Can we talk it later?

Yeah, try not to get fired, OK?

One of us should have a job,

I think.

Happy Halloween.

Goodbye.

Oh, how's it going?

Pretty good.

Great. Who are you?

Myron Stubbs.

You know I'm Clare's cousin

from Indianapolis?

She said I could stay

here a few days

for this writing seminar

I'm going to.

Oh, right.

I thought

that was a couple of weeks.

Yeah, it got moved up.

So I called her from the airport

to find out where the spare key was.

I never would've guessed.

I'm Noah.

Nice to finally meet you.

Nice to meet you.

Can I ask you a question?

Is that my toothbrush next

to your toenail clippings?

Is it? Oh man, I'm sorry.

I forgot mine at home.

So I just Yeah, it's a simple mistake.

You know what.

I'll just go buy one.

That's okay.

You know what.

Keep it and think it as

a Welcome to our Home gift.

Really? Right on.

Thanks.

Trick or treat!

Who is this?

Oh, look at these.

Straight from Villa Villekulla.

How excited Happy Halloween.

There's my unemployed man.

Hi.

Does my cousin get here okay?

Yeah, he went out for a while.

He said He'd be back

in a minute.

So are you serious about

what you said

about starting

your own practice right now?

Yeah. I mean what have

I got to lose, right?

I've got experience, I'm clearly

executive management material.

So, what do you think?

Can we go to the Honesty Zone?
