Morning, mom.

Good morning, puppy.

Hump day, am I right, Jay?

Your day ends at 2:30.

Can’t come fast enough. Quitting time. Am I right, Jay?

Let’s not make this a thing.

Whoa, whoa, whoa. What is this? Where’s my soft-boiled egg?

I scrambled it. It’s good for u to try new things.

I don’t want to try new things. You can’t just spring this on me.

I have bad new, this is not the biggest curve ball that life is going to throw you.

Buddy, don’t close yourself off from new things. I ever tell you the story about me and crab cakes? Thought I didn’t like them, tried them, love them.

Are the movie rights available for that one?

Hey, mom, can I go to the movies with robin.

No, you may not, ‘cause you are still grounded.

Then can I be sent to my room?

No. ‘Cause we’re having some fun family time. We’re gonna spend this beautiful afternoon outside in the fresh air, getting some exercise, okay?

Pitch it, Phil.

Oh, well.

That’s the game.

What do you mean? We jus started.

That was our only ball.

So what? The game’s over just because you’re afraid of stupid Mr. Kleezak?

Yep. I’m not going over there. That was fun.

Hey. Haley. 

Oh, hey, uncle Mitchell.

Hey, is your mom home?

no. she had to take Alex to the oncologist.

Oh, my god, what’s wrong?

She need new glasses.

Oh, did you mean optometrist?

Whatever. So, should I give her a message?

Yes, yes. Could u ask her if she could possibly babysit Lily on Saturday night? We’d really, really appreciate it.

Saturday night, we’re having  diner with Pepper, Longinus, and Crispin.

They’re gay friends.

I think that was clear. I’ve been spending a lot of time with a lot of straight people lately. And, darling, I need a night with my homies.

You mean homos.

Okay, yeah. You know what? Maybe you should stay in and babysit.

Being grounded is so much worse that it was in the older days. Y friends text and Facebook while I’m stuck at home playing Jenga with my dad.

Okay, well, that would be great. Thank u. Yes, well, we’ll see u on Saturday night. Bye sweetie.

What are u thinking?! Healey is a very sweet and fashionable girl, but seems hardly a responsible caregiver!

Well, you know what? We needed a sitter. She’s family. I say we give her a shot.

A shot? With our only child? Sure, why not? If something goes wrong, we’ll just pop over to the orient and grab another one.

That’s your big solution—embrace ignorance?

What are u two arguing about? Never mind. I don’t want to know.

Be back in a couple hours.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, where are you going?

To my friend Walt’s house to watch “High noon.”

Ooh, I love westerns— the bloodier, the better, that’s my favorite type of movie—that and anything set against the backdrop of competitive cheerleading.

Is Walt the one who’s always skateboarding.

No. Where would he put his oxygen tank?

Okay, now I’m really confused.

You sound like Walt. He get confused a lot. It’s hilarious.

Yeah, I went over to his house to get my ball, and we’ve been hanging out.

wait, are we talking about  Mr. Kleezak?

You were in Mr. Kleezak’s house? Luke, that is not okay.

Why not? He’s really nice and funny. Listen to this joke. Okay, two krauts walk into a bar.

Phil, this is not good. 

Honey, don’t jump conclusions.let him finish the joke. And one of them has a limp.

You may not go back to that man’s house.

Why not?

Because … he’s weird.

And not very nice.

Yeah.

That’s what you said about my friend Oliver.

Oliver who almost burned down our garage? He likes to melt stuff. Like you ‘re so prefect.

Luke, I’m sorry, but your mother and I just aren’t comfortable with this.

That’s so unfair. You don’t even know him ‘cause you’re two afraid to talk to him.

Buddy, we’re just looking out for u.

You never like any of my friends.

We’re doing the right thing.

Absolutely.

aren’t we?

I don’t know. I mean, he makes a point. We don’t know the man, and little kids can be friends with old people, right?

Of course they can, there’s tons of examples.

“Up,” um, “ Gran Torino,” “True grit.”

well, what if he’s cute?

Then save him for us.

Nobody in, nobody out.

I‘m telling u kid, this is a concert you’re never  gonna forget. Greatest music in the world. Wait a minute. What’s this?

What do you mean?

What are we seeing?

The symphony “The four seasons.”

I thought we were seeing Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons.

No. No, it’s Vivaldi.

Oh, crap. You mean nothing but instruments?

I’m out of here.

No, you’re not out, you’re in.

I hate this kind of music.

Jay, you always do that. Every time we try something new, your first reaction is always no.

It’s ‘cause I’m old enough to know what I like and what I don’t like.

What about the crab cakes?

That was a fluke. And I can’t slather that boring music in tartar sauce.

So I have to try new things, like scrambled eggs, but you don’t have to?

You see what you’re doing? You’re tearing this family apart.

Let’s take it down a notch. You two go in. Have a great time, I’ll see u later.

What are u going to do?

I’m gonna walk like a man, fast as I can. To that bar over there. And if you knew Frankie Valli, you’d be cracking up right now.

I will cut you like it was nothing, farm boy.

Oh, see, I miss this.

Wait. What about u, Mitchelll?

Um, okay, well, I didn’t know it was a crush, because I was only 8 at the time.

I knew when I was 8.

Everyone knew when you were 8.

Longinus, get up. We’re switching seats.

Okay, okay, back to me, back to me, back to me. So, I had just seen “ST. Elmo’s fire,” And— oh, Mitchell, look, it’s your father.

Ooh. That’s your father? He’s cute.

Okay, can u please turn it off for one second?

Ooh, he’s all alone. Invite him over.

Yeah, that’s not something we’re gonna do.

Relax, your dad knows you’re gay.

He doesn’t  know I’m this gay.

Excuse us?

Oh, Mr. Pritchett!

I know where this is going.

You’re better than that, Crispin.

So, we sneak off to the movies, and we see this little picture called “Solomon and Sheba.” And Sheba was…

Gina Lollobrigida!

Bingo!

And for the rest of my life, I swore, one day, I would marry Gina Lollobrigida!

Well, dad, you kind of did.

I hear that! Mmm. These are good. What’s in them?

It’s a margarita with a shot of absinthe.

no, no, no, no. you have a darling figure. I was just concerned that,

That hurts so much. This is like kind of thing that I expect from my mother, but not from my cool uncle, so thank u for all of your trust.

Okay, I’m sorry.

Unbelievable. You got to go.

Okay.

Hip臀部

Yeah, all right.

Thank you. Thank you.

Dad, I’ve never seen you sing before.

Well, you never saw me in the shower. And don’t anybody go there.

When I was 12 years old, my father walked into my bedroom and caught me doing the most embarrassing thing that a boy can do— dancing to Madonna’s “Lucky star.”  And from that moment on, there’s always been a part of me that I’ve kept from him. And yet, yeah, here he was, you know, laughing with my friends. And I don’t know, maybe the problem was me.

Rob Lowe.

Where?

No, no, Rob Lowe from “St. Elmo’s fire,” that was my crush. I loved him.

I get that. He was a good-looking kid.

Right?

Yeah. Hey, “Walk like a man”?

Well, I can sing it, but I can’t do it. I think I just broken something.

Ow!

Nurse!

Keep from隐瞒

Hello?

Please tell me that you have my shoes.

Why would I have your shoes?

Because I left then at your uncle’s house last night.

What? How could you leave without your shoes?

I got a lot of places without shoes. I’m not wearing shoes right now. Oh, wait. That’s cause I left them at your uncles’s house.

This is a disaster!

Well, maybe they’ll think they’re theirs.

They’re gay. They know what shoes they own.

Thanks a lot, Walt. You couldn’t be nice to my parents for two second, so now I’m not allowed to hang out with you.

What do you want from me?

I thought you were my friend. You promised to teach me how to grew tomatoes, and you were gonna take me for egg cream.

Forget it. You’re a little kid.

I don’t need the aggravation.我犯不着生气

oh, sorry I “Aggravated” you. And , just so you know, a lot of people think I’m adorable.

Yeah.

Woof, not a morning person. Good to know. Listen, I’m five away.(还有5公里？还是5分钟路？）

I’m telling you , I know a guy in Palm Springs who has every single vintage record known to man. I’m driving out there tomorrow. Come with me.

It’s a date.

All right.

I was drunk. I’m not going shopping with Priscilla, queen of the desert.

Okay, dad. Well, I’m feeling really good about our relationship, and I wanted to hold on to that for a little while longer, so I’m gonna go ahead and hang-up with you. Give pepper a big kiss for me.

Gloria, now, listen. I know that you’re upset with me about that concert thing, and rightfully so, but you have to help me.

What is it?

It seems I made plans with Mitchell’s friend pepper.

That’s someone’s name? Pepper?

Yes, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg. There’s another guy named Longinus. But Pepper’s gonna be here any second. He’s gonna take me to Palm Springs to go shopping for records. Now, when he gets here, can you pretend there’s some kind of an emergency?  Can you do that, please?

iay, jay! I think you’ll have to take me now to the hospital. My head is in pain. Do you mean like that?

Yea, thank you. Okay, it’s showtime. And with this guy, I mean that literally.

I’m here. Oh, my god. What I could do with this house.(这个家无可挑剔）hello, Jay. Chop, chop— it’s a two -hour drive, not counting our stop at the outlet mall.

Oh, okay, um. Gloria, we’re leaving!

Hello. You must be Pepper.

What’s the matter, gloria?

Nothing. I just had a little ice cream, huh? He hasn’t stopped talking about you all day long.

You are stunning.

How rich are you?

Are you sure you’re right, gloria?

I feel great, mi amor. I’m so happy that he’s doing this with u, because I never get him to do anything different, like the Vivaldi, hmm? I thinks he likes you more than me. You two have a great time together.

All right, but we got to be back early, because, you know, I got that work thing.

No, no, I canceled everything, you don’t have anything. You spend all day long with him.

Wonderful. Well, shall we?

I know.

You were invading my first-amendment right to privacy.

You were.

I’m sick and tired of people not trusting me.

I get it.
