04x19 - Vacation!

[bunniefuu]

Thanks to Anna-Kat selling the most cookies and winning this trip, tomorrow, we'll be eating breakfast in Hollywood, California.

It's our first real vacation.

It's gonna be awesome.

Sunshine, beaches, celebrity sightings, no laundry.

If you run out of underwear, you ride dirty.

This vacation is gonna be so much better than our usual trip to colonial Crapsburg.

And Valley Forge! Don't forget, you guys hated that, too.

And while we're in California, we're gonna be celebrating your birthday -- the big 4-0.

We're not gonna make a big deal about my birthday.

It's a day like any other day, so I don't want to be treated any differently.

You hear me? I hear you.

No special treatment.

Now go help the kids finish packing.

I'm gonna go meet Doris and Angela.

You're going out now?

There's still so much to do before we leave.

How can you give me a hard time about this?

It's my birthday.

♪♪

♪♪ Did you remember to pack everything?

Swimsuits? Toiletries? Hats?

Nope, nope, and nope.

Then what have you got in here?

"The Big Finish: Rich, Famous, and How They d*ed."

I want to go to the Hollywood Walk of Fame and find all the celebrities that d*ed horrible deaths.

m*rder, dr*gs, the occasional yacht mishap.

[ Chuckles ] Hollywood, baby.

Taylor, could you come in here?

Please help your sister pack.

Why do I always have to take care of her?

Because the older sister takes care of the younger sister.

It's been that way for hundreds of years.

You know, back in colonial days, the eldest --

Oh, my God. Enough! I'll do it!

Anna-Kat, I need you to make room in your bag for this.

It's Mom's birthday gift.

I can't pack it with our stuff. She'll find it.

I'll try to fit it in.

You know, you don't need to take your pillow.

They have them at the hotel.

Did you know that after two years, hotel pillows are mostly dead skin cells?

I'm gonna go pack my pillow.

The best part about flying west is you gain three hours.

You'll get there by lunch.

I don't know about that.

We have a long layover in Dallas.

So change your tickets to nonstop.

And first class.

And make it Monaco.

[ Scoffs ] We can't just change the tickets.

We won this trip.

We have to take what they give us.

They can't tell you what to do.

Last time I checked, this was still America.

You know regular people can't just switch flights whenever they want.

It's actually the first time my family's taken a plane to a vacation, so don't ruin this for me.

Alright, I hear you. I was totally out of line.

[ Drawer opens ]

But you've, like, been to Monaco, right?

[ Drawer slams ]

You just don't get anything about me or my reality.

I don't feel seen or known by you.

"Seen or known"?

Working at Teen Help Line's made you super emo, dude.

[ Scoffs ] Oh, yeah.

You know, this vacation's come at a perfect time.

I need a break from you.

Well, did you ever stop and think I need a break from you, too?

Great.

Uno, dos, tres, cuatro -- What are you doing?

Stopping myself from saying something I might regret.

No, say it.

You can't pull off that belt.

Get...out.

♪♪ This is from me and Doris.

Happy 40th, honey.

Thank you. Mm-hmm.

Just promise not to open it until the night of your birthday. Mm-hmm.

So, 40.

How you dealing with that?

I don't care about 40. Bring it on.

It's just one step closer to 48, when the last kid is finally out of the house.

Then it'll be Katie time all the time.

[ Chuckles ] What about Greg?

By then, he'll probably have, like...a train set?

[ Both laugh ]

What are you guys gonna do in L.A.?

I want to go to that restaurant PUMP and meet Lisa Vanderpump from "Real Housewives."

Mm-hmm. Oh, yeah.

LVP rules! She is the best of the H-wives.

Mm-hmm. She's British, so when she calls you a whore, it sounds polite. [ Chuckles ]

And then we'll do whatever vacation stuff everybody else wants to do.

I hate to break it to you, but you ain't going on vacation.

You're going on a family trip.

What's the difference?

A vacation is when you do what makes you happy.

A family trip is when you drag your kids all over the place, everyone is arguing about where to go and what to do, and by the end, you realize that your friend who chose to stay single was actually right.

Okay, don't listen to her, Katie.

This trip is for everyone.

This is also the first time your family's traveling to a place where no one's wearing a bonnet.

Crapsburg!

My advice -- ditch the kids and do what you want to do.

Take a vacation, Katie, not a family trip.

I can do both.

Oh! That's what Angela said when she was dating those two women at once.

How'd that turn out?

One's in a coma... and the other one's in jail.

That's on Angela.

I got this.

♪♪

[ Indistinct conversations ]

Ah! [ Gasps ]

I'm gonna go check us in.

Wow! Whoa!

[ Laughing ] Oh, my gosh.

This is awesome!

This is the first time we've stayed anywhere with an actual lobby.

And I'm not worried we're gonna be m*rder*d here tonight.

There's a complimentary continental breakfast on the mezzanine level between 8:00 and 10:00!

You know what that means, kids.

All: Load up our pockets with muffins.

Cooper?

What are you doing here?

I don't like to go to bed angry.

I took my jet here so we could talk.

Huh. Must be nice.

This place is pretty cool.

Yeah, the Ottos are finally doing it right.

But it's not on the beach.

You know what you got to do?

Rent yourself a place in Malibu.

I can't afford that.

Sure you can! It's just the 'Bu.

You just don't get it. What?

You keep suggesting things that I can't do.

And it's embarrassing to keep saying, "I can't do that."

I'm 12 hours away from stuffing muffins in my pockets.

You know what?

I really want to understand what's going on with you.

Okay.

Tomorrow, let's go out in L.A.

I'll show you what it feels like to be me.

The bottles of water on the nightstand are free!

But don't touch the big FIJI.

♪♪ We have a rain shower.

That's nice.

And a toilet that flushes different for ones and twos.

That's great.

What are you watching?

I hired Maria to stay at the house and take care of Luthor.

We have a camera in the living room?

Yeah, we put it in to spy on Taylor when she first started dating Trip.

What?! Oh, my God! Relax!

We stopped watching after the 15th time you guys tried to play "Clue" and couldn't figure it out.

Ugh.

Principal Ablin?

-Ewwwww! -Oh. Oh, no.

I told Maria no boys!

Okay, here's what we're doing tomorrow.

We're all meeting up with Cooper in Beverly Hills --

No! I want to go to the wax museum and Venice Beach!

I want to see the Walk of Fame!

I want to see the Michelangelo exhibit at the Getty.

Great, great, great. We're not doing any of that.

We're going to go to PUMP so that I can try to see the queen, Lisa Vanderpump.

But I promised Cooper I'd meet him!

No one would be here if I hadn't won this trip!

I want to see the Specific Ocean!

[ All shouting ]

I'm the one reason that everybody is here...

Doris: Do what you want... Not a vacation...

Ditch the kids...

Why is there so much melon in this fruit cup?

Stop!

Here's the deal -- tomorrow, everyone is free to do whatever they want.

[ Gasps ] Really?

It will be nice going to a museum without your mom saying, "Big whoop, I could do that," after every painting.

Sorry, nerd. Birthday. You're coming with me.

So, we're on our own tomorrow?

Yes. And then we can all have dinner together for my birthday.

It's official -- this is no longer a family trip.

We're on vacation!

♪♪ Don't even think about it.

Okay, guys, listen up -- keep your cellphones handy in case we need to reach you.

Unless you got diabetes overnight and it's for your insulin, that fanny pack is unacceptable.

Cooper's downstairs. I'm gonna go meet him.

I also have a money belt for my most irreplaceable items.

Like your lip balm?

It's actually nipple cream for nursing mothers.

It's the only thing that keeps these babies from cracking.

Ugh.

People say Van Gogh cut off his ear because of a woman, but I'm pretty sure it's because his dad said the words

"nipple cream."

Okay, you two -- sun block.

I want you to watch the "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" season nine reunion show so that you can realize, "A," it's fantastic, and "B," there's crazier out there than what you married.

How can you watch that garbage?

Interesting. [ Inhales deeply ]

I seem to remember the head of the school recycling committee saying that we need to, quote, "rethink garbage."

That's out of context.

♪♪ Fun fact -- in 1932, actress Peg Entwistle committed su1c1de by jumping off the "H" in the Hollywood sign.

The "H" in Hollywood or the "H" in sign?

[ Door opens ] Greg: Taylor.

When you and your sister walk to Hollywood Boulevard, you need to keep an eye on her at all times.

Great! So once again, I'm stuck looking after Anna-Kat.

Maybe you can use this as an opportunity to cross another thing off your life-skills list.

Like what?

[ Smacks lips ] 52 -- Keep a plant alive.

That's close enough.

Oh, my God.

Mom's present!

It's broken! How did this happen?

[ Plastic rustling, bubbles popping ]

♪♪ Look, I'm a kid.

You give me bubble wrap, I'mma pop it.

You guys need to get this re-framed by dinner tonight.

Why do we have to get it fixed?!

Because you broke it.

Anna-Kat broke it!

How could I break it? I'm a plant.

Just fix it.

Taylor: We have three hours until the frame is fixed, so we'll do the Walk of Fame first and then the wax museum.

Look -- Marilyn Monroe.

She lived a really sad life.

She grew up an orphan.

And I'm sure she d*ed in a super depressing way.

Yeah. Drug overdose.

At least that's what the Kennedys want you to think.

See? They're fine.

Greg: I know. I just worry about them.

Me too.

But this is a vacation, and we're doing stuff that we want to do.

Stuff you want to do. Same thing.

And the only way to do that is to trust the kids to take care of themselves, which they're clearly doing. [ Sighs ]

You just need to find a way to relax.

Oh, I could use my new meditation app.

My cellphone is readily accessible right here in my convenient fanny pack.

[ Sighs ]

Or we could relax California style.

Oh, I don't know.

What? It's legal here.

And it's not like you've never done it before.

Okay, remember when I told you I partied a lot in high school? Yeah.

Replace "partied" with "learned calligraphy in my basement."

Don't worry. I'll be with you.

They didn't nickname me Katie "Dank-Nasty Bong-MacGyver Babylon" for nothing.

♪♪ If you're gonna understand me, you need to live within my limitations.

So I'm giving you $20.

That's all you have to spend.

Piece of cake!

That's really nice.

Cooper: Sure is.

I think I'm gonna get one in white.

Ah, you want it, but you can't have it, because that sweater definitely costs more than $20.

I was talking about the Lamborghini.

[ Sighs ]

But I do like that sweater.

Aw, I'm sorry. You can't afford it.

It costs at least 3 grand.

Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm.

You know what? I'm gonna get it.

[ Sighs ] I can't. I'm done.

♪♪ Pot store was a lot nicer than I thought it would be.
