AUNT BINI [ON COMPUTER]:
I'd like all of you now

to speak about Harold.

Talk about what he did for you.

How lucky you were to have him.

Uh, well, Uncle Harold was, uh,

- my favorite uncle...
- SAM: Oh, look,

honey, it's cousin Estelle.

You always loved her.

That looks like the woman
who ate cousin Estelle.

- Nan.
- What?

All the women are so fat
on your father's side.

You girls better be careful.

Am I'm gonna get big like that, Mom?

- No, no.
- Well, you got a little more

on you than you need.

Phil!

Okay, wow.

About the guys
I fancy or didn't fancy...

This is Jewish Hollywood Squares.

EDDY [ON COMPUTER]:
About my heart and...

Hello?

Everyone can see you.

Why are you calling to tell me that?

MARION: Because you're so obvious

- with the pointing and the gesturing.
- [SIGHS] My God.

I can tell that you're screaming
even though you're muted.

You're like all those other folks

at the Hebrew Home for
the Aged on this Zoom.

- No, I'm not.
- MARION: You're horrible.

P.S., f*ck Anatoly's mom.

f*ck Anatoly's mom.

You know, I just-I always
felt respected, didn't I?

SAM: You know what?

No, Mom, Mom,

- don't you dare. Stop.
- I just wanted to...

I want to say something nice about him.

MARION [ON COMPUTER]:
Uncle Harold gave me

my love of comics.

He told me, "You should make friends

with the guy that works
at the comic book store,"

so I did,

and every week, he would
put aside the comics

that I collected.
I never missed an issue.

And one thing he said...

always hold on to your baseball cards.

[MARION CRYING]

I'm cool 'cause of him.

[SOBS]

May his memory be a blessing.

ALL: May his memory be a blessing.

CHERRY [ON COMPUTER]: I have a share.

Hey, I have a share.

Quiet. Sheket bevakasha.

- ALL: Hey!
- AUNT BINI: Listen.

- This is Harold's nurse, Cherry.
- Hello.

- She's part of the family.
- Hi, everybody.

And she never borrowed
any money, Brender.

- [LAUGHS]
- CHERRY: Harold.

God, I will miss you. You know what,

save a spot for me next to you up there,

so you can rub my feet this time,

and you can pull the
blanket over my shoulder,

and maybe I can pour
you the happy hour rosé

'cause you were always
trying to get me drunk.

[CHERRY LAUGHS] Love forever,

your Caribbean Queen,

Cherry.

Okay.

I can't hear you from down here.

DUKE: British Consulate.

I think it's the th floor.

SAM: Yes. Exciting day

of British business for me.

Sorry about the height cr*ck.

I know, tall people are people, too.

Oh, no, you can f*cking
joke in front of me.

- It's all good.
- Excuse me.

Oh, pardon me, ma'am,

because she uses the
language in the show.

I-I overstepped.

I'm a fan. I love Filthy Moms.

When-when you guys broke the sink

while you were getting pounded

in the gas station bathroom,

I-I threw up from laughing.

[CHUCKLES]

That means the world to me. Thank you.

- What show is that?
- Nothing.

Filthy Moms... What channel is that?

Why didn't you ever
tell me about your work?

Don't worry about it.

I'll find it for you, Gran.

Oh, thank you, Duke.

[LAUGHTER]

PHYLLIS: Excuse me. Thank you.

Are you planning to
move to England then?

Oh, no.

I just come to the consulate
to pick up beautiful women.

SAM: Where's the "pip pip cheerio"

- in your family?
- WOMAN: Our daddy.

Sweet Daddy.

He was born in

Dover, and he grew up

sort of all over.

A lot of it was not happy,

that much we knew.

But then, when he got sick,

he said he wanted to be buried there.

Dover. England.

[SIGHS] And all these stories...

Oh, all the stories.

They-they-they came pouring out of him.

And when we went to Dover,

we looked at each other and said,

BOTH: "We're home."

I want to go to Dover.
What's Dover like?

It's a sh*thole.

SAM: Okay, so do you
see the crest above me?

Look at your frame, right?

- Whole... Look at your frame.
- Sammy?

[CHUCKLES]

D... What?

- What?
- [BOTH LAUGHING]

Of all the gin joints...
What are you doing here?

I came to get my English citizenship.

Are you going there to work or to live?

No, just for dual. I do not renounce.

I do not renounce.
America and Britannia.

- Yes.
- Keep your voice down, Sam!

God. You remember my mom?

Yeah, I remember your mom.

Yeah.

Hi, Mrs. Fox. Remember me?

I'm the sexy charmer who used
to work with your daughter

when her babies were babies.

[SCREAMS]

Oh, God.

You never grab a lady's hand so harshly.

- Oh, Jesus.
- I apologize.

Abdul, I'm so sorry.

MAN: Oh, sh*t.

It's a Filthy Moms reunion.

My guy, what's good?

SAM: Okay, so

why are you getting...

- Well, my mom's from Londontown, right?
- What?

- ABDUL: So, I thought w-why not.
- Same.

The world is scary, you know.
I needed an escape hatch.

Church.

It's good to know we have another door.

CAMILLA: Hello, ladies and gentlemen.

Are we ready to follow the pony?

What I want you to do is
we're going to swear the oath

of allegiance, all together.

So, will everyone rise, please. I...

ALL: I...

- Sam Fox...

[EXHALES]

[REGULAR ACCENT]: Thank you.

Duke, Frankie, we need your passports.

DUKE: I hate the picture!

I'm not giving it to you.

[DOORBELL RINGS RAPIDLY]

[DOGS BARKING]

[SIGHS]

Jesus, you scared me.

I thought you were my mom. I'm insane.

I just came to bring you
and the girls some Barone's.

Are you kidding me?

I haven't eaten anything
today, I'm dying.

LENNY: Dare I ask, are you done packing?

Am I done packing? I
have four suitcases out.

It doesn't matter if I'm packing

for San Diego or Bulgaria.

[EXHALES] Packing shpilkes is real.

Ooh...

How are you?

[GROANS] My tribe is driving me crazy,

but mama came for some tequila.

[LAUGHS]

I got a surprise for you.

Guess who's in town? My little brother.

Oh, that's sweet. Why is
that a surprise for me?

I-I told him that you
were up to your eyeballs,

- but he said he had to see you.
- Oh, God.

- No, no, no, not tonight.
- Yes, yes.

- No.
- He just wants to love on you

a little bit, give you a hug.

Everybody, come down. Aunty

Lenny brought Barone's, people!

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm. So good.

- Mmm.
- Oh.

[OVERLAPPING CHATTER]

Oh, I'm gonna make more drinks.

- Yes, yes. Hello.

The pet lesbians are here
to take care of your pets.

Well, we're here
to turn your pets into lesbians.

Oh, we are the Quantico
of lesbianism for pets.

CHAYA: Well, I only deal with the dogs.

Look, I don't even want to
hear about the other animals.

I told you I will handle the snake.

[STAMMERS] Oh, my Go... I...

How many times do I have to ask you

- not to even say the word?
- She has

- ophidiophobia.
- Like, why do you do that?

SAM: Thank you. That's very responsible,

but I sent you an email with everything,

and we're not leaving till tomorrow.

- I can't do this right now.
- CHAYA: Right.

I know, I know, I know, but

we just need to see everything in person

- before you go.
- [SAM SIGHS]

- After Ruben, we do not take chances.
- Exactly.

- Who's Ruben?
- TRESSA: Our friend Marcy's dog.

We were watching him while she was away,

and she left one of
his meds off the list...

Like, off the list, totally.

TRESSA: And he had a heart
problem, and we couldn't reach her.

- She was in Mykonos.
- Mykonos.

And, anyway, we had to put Ruben down

while Marcy was getting
railed by Greek bartenders.

[SIGHS] Fat c**t.

TRESSA: So, just a quick walk-through

would make us feel so,
so, so much better.

- So we don't k*ll your dog.
- Or the thing that starts with an S.

I asked you not to...
Like, but it's like,

- It's like, I ask for things over...
- SAM: Okay, okay, listen.

- There's pizza in the kitchen.
- Like, we don't want to k*ll your dog.

- Go in there, go get pizza.
- Oh, all right. Okay.

- All right.
- Oh, you better have lot of sh*t bags.

Please, you have to leave soon,
that's all I'm asking.

- Not even here.
- I'm having so much shpilkes...

Sammy, Sammy, Sammy.

Little brother.

- Oh.
- [GRUNTS] Hi.

- Hi.
- Oh, it's been such a long time.

- Yeah.
- [SIGHS]

Sammy, you're a sight for sore eyes.

Is this a bad time?

[SIGHS]

Well... no.

Yes. Kind... I mean, it's just that,

you know, we're going overseas tomorrow,

and none of us are packed, so, I mean...

Okay, so this is a f*cking
nightmare. Okay, uh...

I'm sorry. Lenny didn't tell
me. I'll get out of your hair.

No, no, no, no, no. I
don't want you to leave.

I want you to stay.

I want to k*ll you that it took you

so long to come and visit us,

even though I'm leaving now.

Well, I look forward to being k*lled.

Stop.

Frankie. Duke.

Come down. Lenny's brother

Okay, breathe in and out.

She just needs a drink.

Maybe she should hold it.

[OVERLAPPING CHATTER]

Thank you, thank you, Yancey.

Hi. Have we met? Sorry. I'm Frankie.

I don't know that I've had the pleasure.

Who are you?

What are you talking about?

Max, I think I've seen you try on, like,

different personalities tonight.

FRANKIE: It's okay.

It's okay.

PHYLLIS: "Jesus saves."

It's a very controversial statement.

The phrase "Jesus saves"...

I mean, it's very assumptive.

Phil.

Release.

- I was just getting a better look.
- Sorry.

PHYLLIS: She's presuming

- we all love Jesus.
- Jesus.

CHARLOTTE: I'm so sorry, madam.

A gift from my grandmother. Aw.

My apologies. I forgot to
take it off before my shift.

- [CHUCKLES]
- Must be more careful, mustn't we?

For what it's worth, I
love the original Jesus.

I'm a fan, Charlotte.

I don't trust white South Africans.

[GROANS SOFTLY]

Mom.

Mom.

Mom.

[TAPPING]

Can I see one of your
grandmother's poems?

Yes, baby.

[GRUNTS]

Okay.

'Scuse me. [GRUNTS]

♪ Let me pick a special one for you ♪

[GRUNTS]

Here you go, baby.

- [SEAT BELT CLICKS]
- Mm.

- [GASPING]
- FRANKIE: Mom.

- Mom.
- It's okay.

- It's okay.
- Shh. Calm down.

- JONAH: Mummy.
- Just keep your eye on your drink.

You see? Just watch the
drink and how it moves.

It's just air pockets.

That's all.

It's just air pockets.

- SAM: Oh.
- PHYLLIS: It's all right.

It'll pass. It always does.

[GASPING]

- Mummy. Mummy.
- WOMAN: Bit of chop, folks.

Flight attendants, please be seated.

Do your little thing.

You'll see.

It doesn't work like that anymore, Nan.

It's gone. I swear to God.

Whatever I... had, I broke.

[ALL GASP]

SAM: Whoa.

Whatever was...

special about me

is gone.

Never gone.

Just changing.

Everything changes.

Everything moves ever forward.

- [RATTLING]
- [GASPING]

[JONAH FUSSING]

One day, trash.

Next day, you're
wearing diamond earrings.

- [GASPS]
- [JONAH FUSSING]

Oh! That's enough!

Control your child!

MOM: I'm doing the best I can, sir.

- Oh.
- JONAH: No!

- I'm sorry. I'm just...
- JONAH: Aah! No!

There is no need to apologize.

Been there, done that,
bought the factory, mama.

[SIGHS]

This is a long flight.

Your child is keeping me awake!

SAM: Um, bro,

the child is not the issue here, okay?

Did you hear the pilot?

The flight attendants are seated.

Don't speak to me. I'm not your bro.

- [CALL BUTTON CHIMING]
- This is ridiculous.

Utterly ridiculous.

Okay, could you just maybe chill

and take it down a notch, okay?

You don't need to be,
like, so over-the-top.

This is a little much.
It's just a baby, okay?

Who the f*ck are you?!

I know my rights! Don't
tell me to bring it down!

[GASPING]

JONAH: Mummy.

Mummy.

- [PHONE BEEPS]
- My name is George Carter.

I'm on Flight

to London Heathrow.

And I would like you all to see

what these people are doing!

I have called the flight
attendant times,

and nothing!

Okay, Scottish Karen.

- Ooh, Karen's mad.
- [SCOFFS]

My wife's name is Karen
and that is so offensive!

You are violating our rights!

SAM: Oh, we made the movie.

Hi to you and your wife.

Okay, you know what I'm trying to do?

I'm trying to un-genderize
the word, okay?

So it's not differentiated
between man, woman,

idiot, flower,

Tootsie Pop,

whatever you are.

CHARLOTTE: Sir. Sir.

You get ahold of yourself
or I will duct-tape you

to the f*cking seat.

[JONAH FUSSES]

[APPLAUSE]

[WHOOPING]

[CHEERING]

- Mm.
- Jesus does save.

Indominus nabiscos.

- Mm. Hmm.
- JONAH: Yeah.

[GIGGLING]

[BABBLING]

Okay.

SAM: Yeah.

Uh-oh!

- [BABBLING]
- [MOM CHUCKLES]

To you both and to Dormin.

I really wish he could have come.

I miss him. I do, too.

Thank you, guys, for this
incredible opportunity.

I-I really needed the change. [CHUCKLES]

- Really bad.
- MARION: Yeah.

Sometimes you got to
shake the cocktail up.

It's our pleasure.

- MAX: Cheers.
- [SIGHS]

Oh, hello, Maxwell.

Hi, Mom.

Sam, how is it back in steerage?

You're not hearing that?

There is a psycho assh*le back there.

- [SPUTTERS]
- It's insane.

- I'm not hearing a thing.
- [CHUCKLING] No.

Good. We would hate to disturb you.

There's no disturbance at all.

[SIGHS]

This is cute.

- Family time.
- Yeah.

- I got to drain the main vein.
- Okay.

These toilets are
for first-class passengers only.

I completely understand.

But there is a really
definite type of situation

back in my section. Can I just go...

Oh, I'm sorry.

Those are the rules.

[MARION SNORTS]

Okay, Stove.

Did you see Bridesmaids?

What is it with you
people in first class?

We're monsters.

Hmm!

SAM/MARION: "Call me
when you have no class!"

- Cham! Boo! Bee!
- Do it now, Hank.

- MARION: Jerk.
- That's it, Rodney.

I'm going to need you to
return to your seat now.

Okay. All right.

Well, I'm so sorry to bother everyone.

In first class. Enjoy
your sublime seats.

- Oh, it's really nice.
- I'm so glad that everybody

in first class belongs here.

[ENGLISH ACCENT]: I'll see
you in Blighty, daughter!

Good night, Detroit!

Chill out, Stove! All right, I'm going.
