- KATE:
We're gonna send you there.

- Yeah. Yeah.

And if we can't keep the

promise that we make to you,

we are the worst parents in the world.

Oh, honey.

ALEX:
Thank you guys so much.

- I love you guys.

- SCOTT:
Love you, too.

(BOTH SIGH DEEPLY)

SCOTT:
So, as you know, Bob

took away our scholarship,

which we were kind of counting on.

But then we remembered

that we have a college fund

with our dear financial advisor, Dawn.

You don't have enough money.

I don't have any money.

Can I have a raise?

No way. No earthly way.

- I have an idea.

- Hmm?

- Can we apply for a loan?

- (GASPS)

Listen, I'm just gonna

come right out with it.

No one's gonna lend you sh*t.

But if I don't get my job back...

WOMAN:
Are you jerking off a giant?

No, I'm...

I just hung... I just hanged myself.

I don't know if you heard me.

If you don't give me a raise,

I'm walking out of this building

and I'm not looking back.

I don't believe you, and

I think you're bluffing.

Is this the face of a man who's bluffing?

Okay, right here.

It says right here, in this

account, we have $401,000.

- Jackpot!

- You missed it!

No, uh, that says you have a 401K account.

KATE:
Look, we have to tell him

that we're not going to Vegas, okay?

SCOTT:
Yeah. There's no way we can go.

Yikes.

- FRANK:
I'm not a loser.

- RAINA:
You are a loser!

- Frank? Where are you, bud?

- FRANK:
I'm not a loser! No!

RAINA:
What do you want from me?

FRANK:
What do you want from me?

- Sign the divorce papers, Frank!

- FRANK:
No, I don't wanna do...

What did I do to make you hate me so much?

We should get out of here.

Give them their privacy.

- Yep.

- RAINA:
You punched my dad!

FRANK:
He called m

a gambling addict!

- You are a gambling addict.

- BOTH:
Wow.

You lost your job, and

you stopped showering.

- We should go. She's coming.

- I know.

Just sign the f***ing

divorce papers, Frank.

Oh.

- Oh, hi.

- Hey.

Hey, Raina, you look great.

RAINA:
Oh, wow.

That was crazy.

- (LAUGHING)

- Yeah, it was kind of weird.

We don't really know. Yeah.

(SIGHS) He's your problem now.

(FRANK SOBBING)

Hey, Frank?

Hey, bud.

Hey. Hey, guys.

What's going on?

- I was fixing the sink.

- Uh-huh.

(CLEARS THROAT) Splashed

some water on my face.

- (SNIFFLES) That's what's going on here.

- BOTH:
Mmm-hmm.

'Cause I was fixing the sink

'cause the sink was broken.

Right, it's okay. We saw Raina.

I know my life seems totally awesome

and, like, things are going great, but...

Hmm. It looks pretty bleak in here.

Who am I kidding? I'm having

a pretty hard time right now.

- We get that. Yeah.

- It seems like it. Yeah.

Which is why I'm all in on this Vegas trip.
