why did grandma have to stay in our room
when it comes to town I hate Flint thing
in that spider infested basement oh
honey you perfectly safe I sprayed a ton
of poison down there I'll tell you what
for every spider you find and bring to
me I'll give you a nickel better mean
that because the only thing I hate more
than a spider is a liar okay so it's not
just me she's creepy right ooh bill what
time's your dad get in here any minute
I'm really looking forward to spending
time with him sweet your baked aren't
you no no this visits gonna be great
ever since he started dating that woman
joy he sounds different on the phone
more optimistic and happy less mean
drunk and r*cist oh maybe joy is a very
calming presence or sobriety counselor
for black anyway this time it's going to
be different he said on the phone he
wants to work on being a better dad so I
bought us 50 yard line seats for the
bear game this Sunday that's sound
expensive oh you can't pinch pennies
when it comes to family but from now on
we got a tiny tina's braces ourselves
you know don't leave you ever thought
that seeking your father's approval
might be I don't know an unattainable
dream that's really just a distraction
from the other painful things in your
life kind of like how you're droopy eye
bags distract us from your gigantic
forehead be quite daddy loves me
hey everybody decent ovarian how you
doing dad good kids I want you to meet
my fiance joy so wonderful to meet you

point see it's going to be confusing
having two bills which one he wants to
keep your own name not it's settled
alright large bill we're gonna have to
give you a nickname so we'll know which
one is which you know I got a few
thoughts just off the top of my gigantic
forehead I'm not really a nickname oh I
like it that's a totally fake name all
right from now on your puppy I don't
want to be bumpy you should have thought
of that 5000 peaches ago well you have a
surprise for your dad too what's your
surprise puppy wow I got us tickets for

important to you yeah yes all right way

these pants okay you know what just keep
those pants on for a minute I'll show

his son you know share his interests hey
Brian wait been waiting for you the
Chess Club father-son banquet where you
were supposed to introduce me as
chessmen of the year
I hope you don't mind my taking over
your kitchen but I flipped up a tasty
bet of smiley cakes they're really
pancakes but I call them smiley cakes

I don't care for hey you excited about
the game you know I actually am yeah
sure the whole I have a brother thing
was kind of weird but I'm not gonna let
it ruin today I got five hours blocked
off but just me my dad and nobody else
are you ready for the game oh god don't
be i've been thinking about some how
long you ought to trade in those two
expensive seats for three cheaper seats
that way Billy can come with us uh yeah
the thing is el bill was kind of hoping
that it was just gonna be you and him oh
yeah right gorgeous was rude of me to
make that decision on my own all right
who thinks it's a good idea for all
three of us to go Jimmy that's doing
favor to abstain the eyes have it that's
not really fair I take a lot of money
for those tickets oh I see other words
you don't want a little Billy to come
all right you want to break the little
boys hot go right ahead and do it right
over there
you still come in the eye and say Billy
you can't come we don't want you I
understand Billy bad news
[Music]
never going downtown on a weekend again
it was a nightmare the city is
disgusting yond on the arrow and someone
costs directly into my mouth my mouth
keeps like old man what a lovely day I
don't know why they call it to cago the
second city is downtown smells like
number two leave me when you come from a
sleepy little town like I do the hustle
and bustle a big city life is a real
tree son stole your wallet I can finally
get rid of that horrible driver's
license photo a little crazy I mean
isn't there anything you just hate I
mean you know heat there's got to be
something that brings you down let's see
w*r crime disease poverty you have the
prettiest brown eyes thank you
hey how's the game bears won and
overtime on a 54-yard field goal oh
we're billion out well we couldn't get
three seats together so we traded my two
unbelievably great seats for two decent
seats and one behind a pole guess who
got the pole little bastard can raise
his hand so what happened to your pants
cuz it looks like yeah yeah that guy
next to me spilled my beer luckily no
one noticed the stain really know
everyone noticed everyone on the L was
laughing of me including guys who
actually had urinated on themselves had
a great time at that game today me me I
swear to god he's gonna lose that arm
this kid had the time of his life he
loves to bears you know how many players
he can they 55 I can name more than 50
good for you at least he didn't sit
through the game in his own filt
happening is it was my beer maybe you
should cut back when you start peeing
yourself that's a wake-up call no I'm
gonna b*at your pair of pants out of
beer stick well without that beer stain
wait wait a minute what you get that he
felt it up by places in the back of the
closet that's my old Stretch Armstrong
oh jeez bumpy he took you dolly let it
go any more beer left in his joint
there's it all on the front of your
pants
I see that no no i meant can I see it
use your eyes not your hand just for one
second that was one sec no it was not
what not Oh fine fine fine I don't have
to see it I'm a grown man I have money
and I sleep with ladies so haha I
couldn't care less my toy alright so
I'll buy you another one it won't be the
same I was talking it in evening Judy
good evening Bill may I say what a
delightfully uncomfortable evening you
provided us with however do you mean
well you did break a nine year olds toy
I've thought about this long and hard
and there's a rational explanation for
my behavior this kid is a buttface well
I don't think he's going anywhere so you
probably should learn to get along I
just don't see why billy gets everything
Rick what Oh like for example my dad's
taken into the field museum tomorrow do
you think he ever took me to the field
museum he took me to a petting zoo once
but all they were were roosters and they
were fighting each other
I mean I love dinosaurs when I was a kid
would it k*ll them to take me look I
know he was a lousy father to you but it
isn't Billy's father else being a better
dad to him and it's wrong to take it out
on the kid he's just a little boy
without a father responding to a little
kindness I know look if you want your
dad to treat you better than you need to
confront him about this because he's the
one you really mad at ya the Billy I
know I can take his soul fine fine I'll
talk to my dad tomorrow so you in the
mood that depends are you just doing it
so you can brag about it to Billy
tomorrow good night
[Music]
so in a way having my ex-husband gamble
away my life savings gave me a fresh
start I sure got good at sleeping in a
tent for those six months so you are of
me using you're just so positive about
everything I just believe in my heart
that people are good and that life is a
wonderful thing and we should enjoy each
and every day of it because if the only
life we get as far as I know so for me
it's easy you just wake up every morning
and you make the choice to be happy and
then you're happy beautiful way to live
mom in the mouth from the basement yeah
Brian's down there he's got him trapped
under a laundry basket I am NOT going
back down there until it's gone oh it's
just a little mouse I'll take care thank
you joy she's just a sweet thing we
ought to be ashamed of ourselves what's
wrong with us that we people need to
pick and pick up a sweet woman to find
some flaw you're right we need to look
at ourselves
huh I saw things down there that I can
never unsee you just cared that little
fella for you oh happy go put on my face
well I guess we don't have to look at
ourselves yeah hey Dad what was all that
racket about downstairs joy catch a rat
actually yeah hell of a mouse or that
one so that it's been great having you
