Chuck, this is the guy from last night.

Oh, hi.

Very nice to meet you.

She's something else, isn't she?

Well...

enjoy your brunch.

What just happened?

Maybe she really was a prostitute

and took a liking to Wally,

and that guy was her pimp.

He didn't look like a pimp.

How do you know

what a pimp looks like these days?

It's Las Vegas. Everything is cleaned up.

It's possible. You're right, Wally.

She was beautiful in a normal kind of way.

Sh*t, we gotta get gas.

Hey.

Look who's here.

Oh, my god.

Wally, you have to ask them

what was going on.

You know you're dying to know.

This is your one opportunity.

-Okay.

Yes.

Stand up.

This will be weird.

Excuse me. Excuse me!

Sweetheart, look who it is.

Hey.

Oh, wow!

-What a weird...

-I know.

Are you heading back to the Eastside?

Back to Century City?

-Actually, we live in Cheviot Hills.

-Right.

Jeanine just works at Century City,

at The Art of Shaving.

I know.

I just wanted to ask...

I didn't understand...

It was just a little confusing to me,

uh, about her and me,

and then, and then you and her.

Totally understand your confusion.

Whole damn thing is my fault.

You see, Jeanine and I,

we're getting married in June,

and before we do, I just felt like

it was very important for us

to spend one night with another person

-to, you know, get it out of the system.

-Right.

We were gonna do it tonight,

but then, when we got to Vegas, we...

I don't know, it just seemed weird

to spend Valentine's together,

and then sleep with someone else

the next night.

-Yeah.

-So last night,

I had this stripper

from the Sapphire Club,

not a lot going on upstairs,

if you know what I mean.

But just, like, been around the block

-Babe, let's...

-which is just... Yeah, but it's perfect

for this kind of thing.

And I told Jeanine,

I told her to go

and find something similar,

you know, like a Chippendale,

love-them-and-leave-them kind of dude,

I didn't.

-but, no.

She went and found herself

a nice guy like yourself.

And, listen, she and I both feel

that she made a terrible mistake.

I am so sorry, Wally,

if you thought that you and I...

It was not my intention at all, and I...

I really feel terrible about it.

Are you okay, champ?

Yeah. Yeah, no problem.

No problem at all.

Congratulations on your marriage.

-Thank you.

-Thank you.

Hey, Wally.

Think about it.

-She could have had anybody in Vegas,

-Oh.

-she picked you.

-Hm.

Let's get out of here.

There's something wrong with those people.

Something seriously wrong.

You don't mind that we didn't spend

another night in Vegas, do you?

Oh, no. No, it's fine.

I am so glad to be home.

Are you okay?
