good idea Johnny's waiting to Baia what

we can't let him break your mother's

heart again I'm not getting in the

middle of this oh please don't tell me

you want mommy and daddy to get back

together come on Judy give me some

credit i'm a grown man then what is it

my dad's big and scary oh good mr. not

the way she looked at him he'll sweet

talker and she'll cancel the wedding

then he'll turn around and cheat on her

again you cannot let him do that to her

okay fine I'll go talk to him but you

should know that if that old man swings

at me I'm swinging back and then he will

k*ll me

[Music]

who the hell is it it's your son oh so

Phil who's who's Carl and it was a woman

in Missouri not important anyway I'm

glad you're here need your help really

yeah your mother won't take my calls I

need you to talk to it for me ah you

know dad I think we should talk about

that get me my belt oh why I just said

we should talk it's for my pants all you

you brought your wedding album yeah

that's to remind your mother of all the

good times we had you know dad they

weren't all such good times maybe

there's a reason mom's not returning

your calls maybe she doesn't want to

talk to you why wouldn't she want to

talk to me there something wrong with me

you think there's something wrong with

me Belle come out say it or maybe she's

not home yet I just don't understand how

she can turn her back on all those years

used to be your mother and I would make

love and then your mother would get up

all flushed in the afterglow of our

nights passion and then she would make

me a stack of pancakes I give anything

to have that back I'd give anything to

have my love of pancakes back

she's very happy now you weren't happy

you couldn't kick the smiles off our

faces then we got a little apartment we

used to walk to the bus together it was

wonderful what happened I don't know

maybe some people just shouldn't have a

kid wait wait you're saying I ruined

your marriage well you drove me to drink

son only I don't hold it against you cuz

you were too young to know what you were

doing I can't believe you did you ever

stop for one second to think that maybe

the problem was you I saw how you put

mom down and cheated on her you were a

lousy husband and it's too late to make

up for that maybe you're right no reason

your mother should give me a second

chance but I love her I love the woman I

saw today I thought my heart was gonna

bust out of my chest I was an idiot to

let her go and I'll never be happy

without her dad you gotta get her to

talk to me get me one hour to plead my

case if she turns me down I'll be on the

next plane back to Florida I swear

please Billy okay okay I'll get her to

talk to you but I can't tell her to take

you back I wouldn't expect you to you've

never asked for my help before they

didn't me too I had Carl

still can't reach Louise bill do you

have any idea where your mom is yeah I'm

very friendly know when I searched all

over town to find the caterer who could

pull off this wedding in two weeks and

she doesn't bother to show up to try the

dessert samples are delicious oh I'm

sure she's just I'll bet it's nothing

bad it's nothing bad where you go I just

thought I'd go for a little run really

will lions be chasing you because that

is the only reason you would ever run I

afraid my mother's with my father why

would she be with him she told me she

didn't want to see him I may have called

her last night on his behalf you called

your mother for him I said may have did

you yes he thanks me he's got their

wedding album he cried he needed me

after all these years he finally stopped

being such a jerky he let his guard down

and let me in that is so sweet I'm

really happy for you getting the family
