You know what would seduce him?

You know what would

seduce him? Findin' money.

What?

Findin' money. Nothing

makes me happier.

It's satisfying.

I mean, you're walkin' along and then, bam,

there's 5 bucks just lying there, you know?

You feel lucky.

We have one chance at this.

Let's not mess it up.

- You said small details!

- Henry, don't... mess... this... up.

Well... one of the first

houses he'll see.

I know.

It does not give a good

first impression, boy.

Bloody painful.

Turn it! Turn it! Hold it!

That's it, that's it!

Right. So, here's

the cricket uniform.

There's the cricket field...

The rules...

I could print it for ya.

- Yeah. Mm-hmm!

- Yeah.

Is there, uh, anything else?

Can you show us some

photos of naughty nurses?

Sure.

- I got 'em.

- Great.

All right, okay.

Now, it is your civic duty

to study these rules. We must

all become cricket aficionados.

Put them out there. Here we go.

It's kind of like baseball

but it's only got two bases

and no one wears gloves.

One guy wears a glove!

One guy wears a glove.

Now the cricket pitch is a circle

with a rectangle in the middle.

You can do that, right?

You got lime?

Sure, I got bags.

All right, let's get to it.

Oof! We're gonna need

a whole lot of whites.

Where are we going to

get all these whites?

Hmm...

One, two, three.

- These are pink!

- Yeah, we can just bleach 'em.

- But these are pink!

- We can just bleach them!

And so the doctor will be staying

in our beautiful home for a month.

What about us?

Oh, we'll be staying

with the Williamses.

Anyone else have any announcements

they'd like to make?

- Lucy?

- What?

Anything anyone would like to share?

News, updates?

New milestones achieved?

Barriers broken?

- This is it.

- What?

Huh?

Sweet Jesus.

Do we know how to hook it up?

No idea.

It's still very pink.

That's not pink.

It's pink.

Even at night, it's horrendous.

- What the hell are you talkin' about?

- Nothing, really.

- Just, you know, everybody's pitchin' in.

- Yeah,

- you're using my attic!

- Oh, well, we appreciate that,

but this would really help,

and only you can do it.

Out of the question!

Just... a little flirt.

Murray, no!

- I'm not talkin' about intercourse.

- Intercourse?

I said I am not talking

about intercourse.

- I'm not a hooker, Murray.

- I know you're not a hooker!

You're a beautiful, young woman.

All I'm asking is if it's possible

to adopt a flirtatious

attitude towards the doctor.

No! He's happily engaged.

Yeah, exactly!

So what would be the point

of me flirtin' with him?

Well, just his manhood, you know,

just let him feel

desired and feel alive,

make Tickle Head a great
