1. There's a lot of good things
about weekends:
Copy !req
2. no school, cartoons.
Copy !req
3. But the best thing about
weekends is having a neighbor
Copy !req
4. like old Mrs. Jansen.
Copy !req
5. Trick or treat!
Copy !req
6. Oh, my! Look at
Copy !req
7. what nice costumes
you have!
Copy !req
8. Here's two for you
Copy !req
9. and two for you.
Copy !req
10. There.
Copy !req
11. Thank you, Mrs. Jansen.
Copy !req
12. Good-bye.
Copy !req
13. Hey, before
you condemn us,
Copy !req
14. we're the only kids
who even talk to her.
Copy !req
15. So if it wasn't for us,
Copy !req
16. she would have no
human contact at all.
Copy !req
17. We shoveled
your walkway.
Copy !req
18. Oh!
Copy !req
19. It looks wonderful.
Copy !req
20. Let me get my purse.
Copy !req
21. Okay, now you
can condemn us.
Copy !req
22. It's Mom's birthday.
Copy !req
23. She took us down
to the store where she works
Copy !req
24. so we could buy presents
for her.
Copy !req
25. So far, it's working
out pretty well.
Copy !req
26. Reese, for crying out loud!
Copy !req
27. It's killing me!
I'm so close!
Copy !req
28. Get your hand
out of there!
Copy !req
29. I can't!
Copy !req
30. Ow!
Copy !req
31. All right!
Copy !req
32. I got it!
Copy !req
33. Okay, now listen up.
Copy !req
34. I'm going to give you
each ten dollars
Copy !req
35. to buy me something.
Copy !req
36. We've never
done this before.
Copy !req
37. Usually on her birthday,
we just make her stuff.
Copy !req
38. Honey, it's... nice.
Copy !req
39. It's a potato bank.
Copy !req
40. I made it.
Copy !req
41. Now, you can each
get me something,
Copy !req
42. or you can
put your money together
Copy !req
43. and get me...
um, I don't know.
Copy !req
44. Oh, well, now, look at that.
Copy !req
45. A foot massager.
Copy !req
46. Hey, and it's only $25.
Copy !req
47. And you've got, uh, $30
Copy !req
48. between you?
Copy !req
49. Huh.
Copy !req
50. Well, I'm sure whatever
you get me, I'll love it.
Copy !req
51. Now meet me back here
in ten minutes...
Copy !req
52. Stop pushing!
Copy !req
53. Come on!
Dewey, you...
Copy !req
54. Lois!
Copy !req
55. Hi, Craig.
Copy !req
56. What are you doing here
on your... day off?
Copy !req
57. Oh, I just stopped in
with the boys
Copy !req
58. so they could buy me
a birthday present.
Copy !req
59. Oh!
Copy !req
60. It's-it's your birthday?
Copy !req
61. I'd-I'd completely forgotten.
Copy !req
62. Seems like any
other day, actually.
Copy !req
63. Yeah, well...
Copy !req
64. Craig to aisle seven.
Copy !req
65. Of course, you can't
blame me for forgetting.
Copy !req
66. I've been so busy lately.
Copy !req
67. Seems like I'm always hitting
the weights at the gym,
Copy !req
68. working on the guns.
Copy !req
69. Craig, aisle seven.
Copy !req
70. Yeah, and when
I'm not at the gym,
Copy !req
71. I'm usually with
my Dixieland jazz group.
Copy !req
72. Really? What do you play?
Copy !req
73. I'm the costumer.
Copy !req
74. You know, there are four
different types of straw hats,
Copy !req
75. and if you ever need
those arm garters...
Copy !req
76. Craig, I can see you.
Copy !req
77. Bye.
Copy !req
78. And it's my mom's birthday,
Copy !req
79. so it means a lot to her
for me to come home.
Copy !req
80. Just as a coincidence,
Copy !req
81. my friend Richie is throwing
a huge party on the same day.
Copy !req
82. But enough about me.
Copy !req
83. I can't believe
that you and your schoolmates
Copy !req
84. have come all the way
from Mozambique
Copy !req
85. just to see a bunch
of national parks and monuments.
Copy !req
86. I mean, I don't
want to criticize,
Copy !req
87. but you really
haven't seen America
Copy !req
88. until you've seen
the small towns,
Copy !req
89. met the people,
Copy !req
90. studied the way my friend
Richie throws a keg party.
Copy !req
91. You're wasting
your time.
Copy !req
92. She doesn't
speak English.
Copy !req
93. Oh.
Copy !req
94. Which is just as
well, because if she
Copy !req
95. understood the crap
you were feeding her,
Copy !req
96. she'd laugh
in your face.
Copy !req
97. I, on the other hand,
find your desperation charming.
Copy !req
98. Really?
Copy !req
99. Oh, well, there's plenty more
where that came from.
Copy !req
100. Get out of my way!
Let go of me!
Copy !req
101. Come on, move, move!
Copy !req
102. Here you go, Mom—
happy birthday.
Copy !req
103. Don't you want to wrap it?
Copy !req
104. No, it's okay.
Copy !req
105. An eyeglass repair kit.
Copy !req
106. Box of
throat lozenges.
Copy !req
107. A dirt bike magazine.
Copy !req
108. I might want to look at
that when you're done.
Copy !req
109. This cost you $30?
Copy !req
110. No, it was, like, eight.
Copy !req
111. This store's
great, Mom.
Copy !req
112. When can I have my candy?
Copy !req
113. Relax, dude, we have
20 bucks worth.
Copy !req
114. Shotgun!
Copy !req
115. Hey! Wait!
Copy !req
116. Mom, what's for dinner?
Copy !req
117. Oh, I don't know.
Copy !req
118. Why don't you have some candy.
Copy !req
119. Yay!
Copy !req
120. Dewey, take off the wrappers.
Copy !req
121. Does Mom seem okay
to you?
Copy !req
122. What do you mean?
Copy !req
123. I don't know.
Copy !req
124. I think she might be upset
about something.
Copy !req
125. Maybe I should go ask if...
Copy !req
126. Ooh. Skinny Fonzie.
Copy !req
127. 19, 20, 21, 22, 23.
Copy !req
128. All here.
Copy !req
129. You can go.
Copy !req
130. This is my house.
Copy !req
131. Can't you just feel
the authenticity of it?
Copy !req
132. Not like those crappy
plastic national parks
Copy !req
133. you've been going to.
Copy !req
134. You can relax, Francis.
Copy !req
135. I got off the bus already.
Copy !req
136. Right, okay.
Copy !req
137. Here's the deal:
we go inside,
Copy !req
138. make a polite appearance
for my mother's birthday,
Copy !req
139. have some cake with her,
drop off my laundry,
Copy !req
140. and then we go
to the party.
Copy !req
141. My God!
Copy !req
142. What?
Copy !req
143. Do you even know
Copy !req
144. how astonishingly
beautiful you are?
Copy !req
145. Oh, yes.
Copy !req
146. I've had 15 marriage proposals.
Copy !req
147. That's why the general
sent me on this trip—
Copy !req
148. to keep me out of trouble.
Copy !req
149. Hey, boys.
Where's Mom?
Copy !req
150. Bedroom.
Copy !req
151. Oh, yeah?
Copy !req
152. Honey?
Copy !req
153. What?
Copy !req
154. Are you okay?
Copy !req
155. Hey.
Copy !req
156. What's wrong?
Copy !req
157. The boys.
Copy !req
158. Ah.
Copy !req
159. Don't let them get to you.
Copy !req
160. They'll be out of the house
in ten years.
Copy !req
161. Hey, what did
those mean boys do, huh?
Copy !req
162. I gave them $30 to
buy me something nice,
Copy !req
163. and they spent it
all on themselves.
Copy !req
164. They don't even care
that it's my birthday.
Copy !req
165. Oh, well!
Copy !req
166. Those boys are going to hear
from me, let me tell you.
Copy !req
167. They are going to get
one heck of a talking-to.
Copy !req
168. And th-then I think
I'll go for a drive,
Copy !req
169. I'm just so furious.
Copy !req
170. Damn it, damn it, damn it!
Copy !req
171. Her birthday's on the 12th.
Copy !req
172. It can't be the... oh!
Copy !req
173. No, no!
Copy !req
174. I programmed this stupid watch
Copy !req
175. to remind me that...
Copy !req
176. No, no, no, no!
Copy !req
177. You boys
are in so much trouble!
Copy !req
178. Help me on this.
Copy !req
179. I can't believe
Copy !req
180. that you could be
so thoughtless!
Copy !req
181. We all
screwed up really big this time.
Copy !req
182. I have a good mind to use
the belt on all three of you!
Copy !req
183. Why are you yelling at us?
Copy !req
184. Sorry isn't good enough, mister.
Copy !req
185. I forgot your mom's birthday!
Copy !req
186. Oh... Oh!
Copy !req
187. What?
Copy !req
188. What?
Copy !req
189. What?
Copy !req
190. Hi, Hal.
Copy !req
191. Craig, what do you want?
Copy !req
192. Well, Lois and I had
an exchange, and I felt bad,
Copy !req
193. so... I'm sure
she told you all about it.
Copy !req
194. No, actually,
she didn't say anything.
Copy !req
195. Craig, we're in the middle of...
Copy !req
196. Well, it's complicated.
Copy !req
197. You see,
I didn't buy Lois a present,
Copy !req
198. even though I wanted to,
and I thought "this is silly,"
Copy !req
199. so I went ahead and got her one,
and here it is.
Copy !req
200. Oh... great.
Copy !req
201. I-I'll take it in
to her right now.
Copy !req
202. Oh, such a nice,
Copy !req
203. nice gift.
Copy !req
204. You know what,
second thought, uh,
Copy !req
205. I can take care
of this tomorrow.
Copy !req
206. I'll bring it in to work. Oh, no, wouldn't be
Copy !req
207. any trouble at all. Really?
Copy !req
208. No, I'd be happy
to take it in to her.
Copy !req
209. Yeah, I'd really hate
to put you out.
Copy !req
210. Don't be silly.
Copy !req
211. Give it!
Copy !req
212. Lois, it's Craig!
He's stealing your present!
Copy !req
213. It's a present
that I paid $129 for!
Copy !req
214. Honey?
Copy !req
215. Honey, where
are you going?
Copy !req
216. Wherever I want.
Copy !req
217. Well...
Copy !req
218. when are you
coming home?
Copy !req
219. When?
Copy !req
220. Whenever somebody
in this family gives a damn.
Copy !req
221. Happy birthday, Mom!
Copy !req
222. This is bad.
Copy !req
223. Mom's never taken off
on us like this before.
Copy !req
224. Yeah. She usually
throws usout.
Copy !req
225. You bought candy?
Copy !req
226. You don't just...!
Copy !req
227. It was her...!
Copy !req
228. If I only had the...!
Copy !req
229. Stupid watch!
Copy !req
230. Candy?
Copy !req
231. What were you...?
Copy !req
232. D'oh!
Copy !req
233. What's his problem?
Copy !req
234. He's not the only one
pissed at you little twerps.
Copy !req
235. What are you
talking about?
Copy !req
236. I had this great
party lined up
Copy !req
237. with this beautiful girl,
Copy !req
238. and all I had to do
was come home,
Copy !req
239. make an appearance
at Mom's birthday—
Copy !req
240. be the good son.
Copy !req
241. Everything would've been fine,
Copy !req
242. but now my trip home
has been tainted.
Copy !req
243. In her mind,
we're all thoughtless jerks,
Copy !req
244. thanks to you guys.
Copy !req
245. What did we do?Think about it.
Copy !req
246. Mom gave you money
to buy her a present
Copy !req
247. and you spent
most of it on candy.
Copy !req
248. And the rest
on her presents.
Copy !req
249. But you spent
most of it on candy.
Copy !req
250. We've established that.
Copy !req
251. We're just going around
in circles here.
Copy !req
252. Okay, look.
Copy !req
253. How would you feel
if Mom didn't buy you a present?
Copy !req
254. Mom's not buying me
a birthday present?
Copy !req
255. No, that's not what I'm saying.
I'm saying...
Copy !req
256. But it's my birthday.
Copy !req
257. No, it's not.
Copy !req
258. Francis, it's Mom.
Copy !req
259. We've never made a big deal
out of her birthday.
Copy !req
260. And plus, she said she'd be
happy with whatever we got her.
Copy !req
261. And was she happy?
Copy !req
262. Oh, man... we suck.
Copy !req
263. Did we make Mom mad?
Copy !req
264. No, Dewey, worse.
Copy !req
265. You hurt her.
Copy !req
266. Okay, I'm lost.
Copy !req
267. Ow!
Copy !req
268. That's how Mom feels
on the inside.
Copy !req
269. So what are we
supposed to do?
Copy !req
270. "We"?
Copy !req
271. Haven't you guys been listening?
Copy !req
272. You screwed up, not me.
I'm not doing anything.
Copy !req
273. I don't know what you're going
to do, and I don't care.
Copy !req
274. I have my own problems.
Copy !req
275. I have to go to a kegger,
party with my friends,
Copy !req
276. make out with an African goddess
with this hanging over my head.
Copy !req
277. Come on, Amaani.
Copy !req
278. This isn't fair.
Copy !req
279. Mom never should
have taken us
Copy !req
280. to a store that
sells candy.
Copy !req
281. She set us up!
Copy !req
282. Shut up, Reese.
Copy !req
283. We blew it.
Copy !req
284. We made our own mom
run away from home.
Copy !req
285. Where do you think she is?
Copy !req
286. Hey, lady, are you going
to hog that cage all day?
Copy !req
287. I got news for you, kid.
I'm a grown-up
Copy !req
288. with a credit card
and no curfew.
Copy !req
289. I could stay here all week
if I want.
Copy !req
290. Yeah, but we want to hit. Yeah, we do.
Copy !req
291. When you getting out of there?
Copy !req
292. You want me to get out?
Copy !req
293. Okay, I'll get out.
Copy !req
294. If you do one
thing for me.
Copy !req
295. You give me back
15 years of my life.
Copy !req
296. Can you do that?
Can you reverse time?
Copy !req
297. Can you take me back
to when I was 23,
Copy !req
298. so I can stay single,
go to music school
Copy !req
299. and become
a concert violinist?
Copy !req
300. Huh?
Copy !req
301. No? Okay.
Copy !req
302. Looks like I'm going
to have to keep on batting.
Copy !req
303. You can't just hog the cage
because you're crazy!
Copy !req
304. That's not fair!
Copy !req
305. You think I'm crazy?
Copy !req
306. I'll show you crazy.
Copy !req
307. I hope your friend Richie
Copy !req
308. has some place
where we can be alone.
Copy !req
309. You know my mom's going to
end up blaming me for this.
Copy !req
310. What?
Copy !req
311. This whole
birthday fiasco.
Copy !req
312. By the time she's done
spinning it in her head,
Copy !req
313. I'll be the one who gave
her the crappy presents.
Copy !req
314. Any chance my mom gets to
make my life miserable,
Copy !req
315. she pounces.
Copy !req
316. You know, in Mozambique,
Copy !req
317. talking about your mother this
much isn't considered a turn-on.
Copy !req
318. Sorry.
Copy !req
319. Is Mom ever
coming home?
Copy !req
320. Of course she is.
Copy !req
321. Reese, what
are you doing?
Copy !req
322. Making a list of women
for Dad to look into.
Copy !req
323. Now that Mom's gone.
Copy !req
324. Mom's coming back.
Copy !req
325. Hey, if you want
to be in denial,
Copy !req
326. it's fine with me,
but I'm trying to keep Dad
Copy !req
327. from making
the same mistake twice.
Copy !req
328. It's called being proactive.
Copy !req
329. "Mrs. Larson"?
Copy !req
330. She can cook,
and her daughters are nymphos.
Copy !req
331. Ask me what she did
for my birthday?
Copy !req
332. Just ask me.
Copy !req
333. Francis...
Okay.
Copy !req
334. I'm sorry.
Copy !req
335. That is the last time.
Copy !req
336. It's out of my mind.
Copy !req
337. And this next track is a special
request to Lois from Hal.
Copy !req
338. He loves you and misses you
and says if you come back,
Copy !req
339. he'll give you
that sweet monkey love...
Copy !req
340. What are you doing? Nothing.
Copy !req
341. And this next song
Copy !req
342. goes out to a very special lady
from Craig.
Copy !req
343. Oh, no.
Copy !req
344. What is it?
Copy !req
345. It's my mom.
Copy !req
346. What's she doing
at a batting cage?
Copy !req
347. And why am I surprised
by anything she does?
Copy !req
348. Don't worry, I am not going
to let her ruin this for us.
Copy !req
349. We are going to that
party— end of story.
Copy !req
350. Damn it!
Copy !req
351. Oh, thank God.
Copy !req
352. She's crushing the ball.
Copy !req
353. How come she didn't teach us
how to play baseball?
Copy !req
354. Because there's more to hitting
than making contact.
Copy !req
355. So what do we do now?
Copy !req
356. Okay, Timmy,
blow out the candles.
Copy !req
357. Hang on there, Timmy.
Copy !req
358. What are you doing?
Copy !req
359. Can I talk to you
for a second?
Copy !req
360. Happy birthday, honey.
Copy !req
361. Yeah.
Copy !req
362. What are you doing, Hal?
Copy !req
363. Well, what's it look like?
Copy !req
364. We're celebrating your birthday
as a family.
Copy !req
365. Who are you?
Copy !req
366. I'm sorry, Mom.
Copy !req
367. Yeah, me, too.Me, too.
Copy !req
368. Actually, I'd like to point out
that I'm clean on this one.
Copy !req
369. Lois, honey, come home, please?
What do we have to do?
Copy !req
370. A lot of things.
Copy !req
371. I don't want to be taken
for granted anymore.
Copy !req
372. If I come back, you guys are
gonna make some changes.
Copy !req
373. Anything, whatever you want.
Copy !req
374. I don't ever
want to have to remind
Copy !req
375. my own family
that it's my birthday.
Copy !req
376. You are so right.
Copy !req
377. It will never happen again.
Copy !req
378. Mm-hmm. And one night a week,
Copy !req
379. I don't want
to have to fix dinner.
Copy !req
380. Absolutely, good, fine, done.No problem.
Copy !req
381. And I want dirty laundry
in the hamper,
Copy !req
382. not on the floor,
not over a lampshade,
Copy !req
383. not shoved
in some mattress crack.
Copy !req
384. No problem. We'll throw it in the hamper.
Copy !req
385. It's just that easy, huh?
Copy !req
386. Yes, it's just that easy.
Copy !req
387. Then why do I
even have to ask?
Copy !req
388. If it's so obvious
Copy !req
389. I need a little
human consideration,
Copy !req
390. I shouldn't even have to ask.
Copy !req
391. Oh, geez, honey,
that's never going to happen.
Copy !req
392. What?
Copy !req
393. We're not smart enough
to do that.
Copy !req
394. Look who you're talking to.
Copy !req
395. You might as well
ask us all to be a foot taller.
Copy !req
396. Sweetie, you're always going
to have to tell us what to do.
Copy !req
397. I mean, look at this
half-baked celebration.
Copy !req
398. I mean, we're at the top
of our game here.
