AND I WANNA COME UP WITH A SOLUTION HERE.

- WELL, WHY, OF ALL PUNISHMENTS, DID YOU CHOOSE THIS?
- BECAUSE IT JUST CAME OUT OF MY MOUTH, OKAY?
I NEED TO FOLLOW THROUGH ON THIS.
- WELL, CAN WE THINK CREATIVELY?
COME UP WITH A DIFFERENT PUNISHMENT?
- CREATIVELY WHAT?
- MAYBE JUST ISSUE HIM A WARNING?
THIS IS SO IMPORTANT TO MY DAD.
- HIS HAPPINESS IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN ME
FOLLOWING THROUGH ON A PUNISHMENT?

I NEED TO STICK TO MY GUNS ON THIS, OKAY?
I WARN HIM ALL THE TIME, AND IT'S MEANINGLESS.

THIS IS INSANE. - OH, YEAH, WELL, THE ONLY THING
I ASKED YOU TO DO WAS JUST GO UP
AND VISIT MY MOTHER ON HER 86TH BIRTHDAY.
- WHAT THE HELL YOU THINK WE'RE DOING HERE?
- THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN YOU THINK IT'S A WAR CRIME
OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT. - DAD, IT'S NOT A WAR CRIME.
IT'S JUST THAT W-- - YEAH.
- IT WAS KIND OF OUT OF THE BLUE, NOT A WHOLE LOT OF NOTICE.
AND SO WE ALL WORKED REALLY HARD
TO GET OUR SCHEDULES ARRANGED TO BE HERE.
- SO ALL OF A SUDDEN, IT'S LIKE YOU GUYS
ARE DOING ME THIS GIANT FAVOR.
- NO, SWEETIE, THAT'S NOT WHAT SHE SAID.
- THAT'S-- - NO, THAT IS WHAT SHE SAID.
I GOTTA TELL YOU SOMETHING. YOU KNOW, REALLY.
YOU GUYS-- YOU REALLY JUST--
YOU SUCK.
I'M GONNA GO TO BED.
[chair slides]
- MOM.
- YOU DON'T NEED TO TURN THIS SO MUCH.
JUST HOLD IT STRAIGHT AND THEN WAIT WHEN YOU--
- HE CHECKED OUT A WHILE AGO.
MAYBE, LIKE, BEFORE 8:00.
[bell rings] - TRUCK'S NOT THERE.
- HE CHECKED OUT. - THANKS, JOEL.
UH, DID--DID HE SAY WHERE HE WAS GOING?
- I DON'T USUALLY ASK PEOPLE
WHERE THEY'RE GOING WHEN THEY CHECK OUT.
- OKAY.
- NEITHER OF THEM ARE ANSWERING THEIR CELL PHONES.
- HOW DO I DO THIS? - YOU GOT IT.
[cell phone ringing] - NO, DON'T ANSWER THAT.
- REALLY? - YEAH, REALLY. REALLY.
- OH, COME ON. - NO, I DON'T WANT THEM
COMING ALONG ON THIS TRIP ANYMORE.
HECK WITH IT.
I DON'T WANT THEM THINKING THAT I MADE THEM DO IT.
AND THEN THAT'S NOT WHAT THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE ABOUT, CAMILLE.
MY GOD, LET THEM LEARN A LESSON, FOR CRYING OUT LOUD.
- IT REALLY-- IT'S SO TYPICAL OF DAD.
SELFISH. - IT'S SO MANIPULATIVE.
- I DON'T LIKE BEING TOLD I SUCK.
I KNOW THAT FOR SURE.
- AND NOW WE'RE SUPPOSED TO FEEL GUILTY.
- YEAH. - BUT I DON'T FEEL GUILTY.
- NO, I DON'T FEEL GUILTY.
- I DON'T. I JUST FEEL ANNOYED.
- YEAH. - I FEEL GUILTY ABOUT THE CHAIR.
I REALLY BLEW IT ON THAT ONE. - WELL, THAT--
YOU SHOULD FEEL BAD. - YEAH, YOU SHOULD.
- HE DID ASK ME TO WATCH IT. - WELL, WHAT ARE WE DOING?
- WELL, LET'S JUST DO WHAT WE'RE SUPPOSED TO DO, AND LET'S--
LET'S PUT OUR TAILS BETWEEN OUR LEGS
AND GET UP THERE AND APOLOGIZE.
- THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT HE WANTS US TO DO.
WE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING.
WHAT DO WE HAVE TO APOLOGIZE FOR?
WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO FEEL BAD. - I KNOW, BUT--
- OKAY, YOU KNOW, I LEFT HALF MY FAMILY BEHIND,
SO I COULD DO THIS FOR HIM. WHERE'S THE APPRECIATION?
- YOU'RE NOT GONNA GET APPRECIATION.
- YOU'RE NEVER GONNA GET APPRECIATION.
- AND THAT'S WHY WE SHOULDN'T GO ALONG AND GIVE INTO THIS STUNT.
I-IT'S LIKE SAYING, "YOU WIN."
- WELL, WHAT ABOUT GRANDMA?
- PERSONALLY, SHE DOESN'T APPROVE OF ME.
I KNOW THAT BECAUSE SHE SAID TO DAD, "I DON'T APPROVE OF SARAH,"
AND THEN HE TOLD ME, SO--
- I SAY WE DON'T FOLLOW THEM.
- LET'S GO HOME. - THAT FEELS GOOD.
I LIKE IT. - LET'S STOP AT THAT SPLIT PEA--
- WOW, REALLY? - COME ON, BUDDY.
WE'RE GOING HOME.
- HI, BUD.
YOU HUNGRY?
- NO.
- DO YOU WANT ME TO HELP YOU UNPACK YOUR BAG?
- [sighs]
- CAREFUL. - [grunts]
- CAREFUL, CAREFUL.
- SO BUDDY, WHAT KIND OF A LESSON DID WE LEARN
FROM ALL OF THIS?
- I CAN'T CALL YOU NAMES. - RIGHT.
EVER. - EVER.
- ESPECIALLY THAT NAME. IT'S NOT A NICE NAME.
WHAT IS THIS, BUDDY?
- IT WAS FOR MAMA BLANCHE.
LAST TIME I SAW HER, SHE SAID SHE LIKED BUGS AND THINGS
LIKE THAT, SO--
[rattling]
HOW DO YOU FOLD A SHIRT?
[rock music]
- ♪ IF YOU'D IMAGINE
♪ THE MUSIC SO REAL
[song volume decreases]
- I'M SORRY THAT I WASN'T PAYING ATTENTION TO YOU.
- THAT'S ALL RIGHT. I WAS TIRED.
I OVERREACTED. IT'S OKAY.
- I JUST ALSO WAS THINKING THAT--
I'M JUST SO USED TO BEING ABLE TO HANG OUT WITH YOU...
WHENEVER.
I DON'T THINK ABOUT NOT SEEING YOU,
LIKE WHEN I'M GOING TO SCHOOL-- HOW THAT'S GONNA CHANGE.
'CAUSE IT'S SCARY TO THINK THAT I'M GONNA BE, LIKE,
AN ADULT, AND YOU HAVE TO TAKE THINGS SERIOUSLY.
AND IT'S SCARY, RIGHT?
YOU'RE JUST MY DAD.
I'M SO USED TO HAVING YOU AROUND.
SO I JUST WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I AM HAVING FUN WITH YOU.
- WELL, I WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT I THINK YOU ARE
AN AMAZING YOUNG WOMAN.
I DO. IT'S TRUE.
- THIS IS HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT YOUR PARENTS, RIGHT?
[blinker clicks]
- OH, GOD. - WHAT IS HAPPENING?
- I'M FEELING GUILTY.
- OH, GOD. - YES.
- OKAY, YOU? - YEAH, I FEEL PRETTY LOUSY.
I MEAN, BIG, BIG, GUILT, SO-- - IS IT WRONG THAT I DON'T FEEL
ANYTHING AT ALL? - YES, THAT IS WRONG.
- LET'S GO. - YOU MIGHT NOT BE HUMAN.
- LET'S GET A SPEEDING TICKET AGAIN.
[engines start]
[knocking at door]
- WHY ISN'T SHE ANSWERING THE DOOR?
- MAYBE SHE CAN'T HEAR IT.
- WELL, SHE CAN HEAR.
I MEAN, HER EARS ARE JUST FINE.
IT'S HER HIPS, YOU KNOW, COULD BE SOLD FOR PARTS,
BUT SHE CAN HEAR GOOD.
MOM!
YOU THINK SOMETHING HAPPENED?
- MAYBE THERE'S A WINDOW OPEN.
- MOM!
ARE YOU OKAY?
MOM! - HEY.
- ALL RIGHT, THIS IS IT. MOM!
I'M COMING IN.
[grunts]
- MOM?
- MOM! HEY!
- MOM? - MOM!
HEY!
HELLO?
SHE'S NOT HERE.
- NO, TODAY'S TUESDAY.
RIGHT? "BRIDGE CLUB, 1:30."
- WHAT?
- SHE HAS BRIDGE CLUB.
- SHE SCHEDULED A BRIDGE GAME THE DAY WE ARRIVE?
- WELL, I M-- - AND WE--
WE DRIVE HUNDREDS OF MILES, WE GO THROUGH HELL TO GET HERE,
AND SHE SCHEDULED A BRIDGE GAME? I MEAN, THAT DAMN WOMAN.
- I'M SURE IT'S-- IT'S EVERY TUESDAY AT 1:30.
SHE'S OLD.
- WELL, SO AM I, DAMN IT. I MEAN, COME ON.
IT'S JUST-- YOU KNOW WHAT?
I'M THROUGH WITH THIS. I'M DONE.
FINISHED. I'M OUT OF HERE. I AM SO FINISHED!
KNOWS WE'RE COMING. WHY THE HELL--
- SURPRISE! WE'RE HERE!
- WHERE'S MAMA BLANCHE? I HAVE A PRESENT FOR HER.
- WHOA, MAX. WE FLEW DOWN TO SURPRISE EVERYBODY,
SO I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE-- - YOU DESERVE A MEDAL,
FLYING WITH A THREE-MONTH-OLD.
- THANK YOU. I HAD A BEER ON THE PLANE,
SO THAT HELPED A LITTLE BIT.
WHERE DID EVERYBODY GO? WHAT HAPPENED?
- OH, YOU WANNA KNOW WHAT HAPPENED?
- YEAH. - OH, I'LL TELL YOU
WHAT HAPPENED. - OKAY.
- COME HERE.
[grunts] WELL, UM...
KRISTINA, THE DEAL IS...
[sighs] I LOOK AT MY LIFE, AND I'M THINKING, YOU KNOW,
WHAT REALLY MATTERS, AND, I MEAN,
YOU GOT THE MEMORIES AND ALL THAT.
YEAH, THAT'S GREAT.
BUT THE WHOLE PURPOSE IS FAMILY.
I MEAN, THAT'S REALLY WHAT I WANT IT TO BE ABOUT,
AND I WANTED THE KIDS TO COME WITH ME TO VISIT MY MOM.
AND, UH, THEY WERE KIND OF RELUCTANT, SO I GOT ANGRY.
I GOT MAD AT THEM AND JUST COMPLETELY DROVE THEM AWAY.
AND, UH, PRETTY MUCH JUST SCREWED--
I--I JUST PRETTY MUCH SCREWED THE WHOLE THING UP.
THAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE.
- [sighs] ZEEK, COME ON.
ARE YOU KIDDING?
YOU'RE KIDDING. - MM.
- YOU DIDN'T SCREW ANYTHING UP.
I MEAN, I CAN SAY THIS, BECAUSE,
WELL, YOU KNOW,
COMING FROM A FAMILY THAT'S REALLY LACKING, AND...
YOU SHOULD BE VERY PROUD
OF YOURSELF AND THIS FAMILY.
YOU AND CAMILLE HAVE CREATED THIS WONDERFUL AND WEIRD
AND CRAZY... [chuckles]
GREAT FAMILY.
AND I'M SO LUCKY TO BE A PART OF IT.
I CAN'T TELL YOU.
YOU KNOW, YOU'VE ALWAYS TREATED ME LIKE A DAUGHTER.
AND YOU'VE ALWAYS BEEN THERE FOR ME,
AND I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THAT.
SO THANKS.
YOU'RE A GOOD DAD-- - REALLY?
- AND A GOOD MAN. MM-HMM.
- THANKS.
[soft rock music]
[horn honks]
- HI. - MA!
- I'M GONNA GET CAMILLE.
- ZEEK. - HI.
HERE, LET ME HELP YOU.
- I'M OKAY. - ARE YOU SURE?
- YEAH. - LOOK WHO'S HERE.
- HEY, MA. - OH, THAT'S IT.
- HOW ARE YOU? - GOOD.
- LOOK WHO'S HERE.
- LOOK, MILLIE. - MOM.
YOU LOOK WONDERFUL. - CAMILLE...
YOU LOOK LOVELY. - THANK YOU.
HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY. - HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
- THANK YOU. - WHAT HAPPENED?
I MEAN, WHAT DID YOU DO? FORGET WE WERE COMING?
- NO, I KNEW YOU WOULDN'T BE HERE TILL NOW.
THE TRAFFIC'S A BITCH IN THE AFTERNOON.
[horns honking]
- SEE? - OH, MY GOSH, LOOK.
- CAN YOU GET THE GIFT OUT OF THE CAR?
GRANDMA, HEY! UH!
HOW YOU DOING? SORRY I'M LATE.
HONEY? - SURPRISE!
- HAPPY BIRTHDAY. SO GLAD TO SEE YOU.
WE HAD TO STOP WITH THE KIDS AND IT WAS JUST CRAZY.
- HI, HONEY. I'M SORRY.
[overlapping chatter]
- HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
- AW, YOU'RE HAPPY TO SEE ME?
I SPENT $500 ON PLANE FARE, SO--
- THANK YOU, HONEY, I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE HERE.
- YOU'RE WELCOME.
- I DON'T EVEN KNOW EVERYBODY.
- OKAY, WE GOT A WHOLE CREW DOWN HERE.
- OH! - YOU JUST LOST A TOOTH?
- SEE, THEY ALL SHOWED UP. THEY ALL WANTED TO BE WITH YOU.
- HADDIE! - HI!
- SORRY FOR EVERYTHING, POP.
- YOU'RE A GOOD KID, ADAM.
- REMEMBER SYDNEY? SHE'S GROWN A LOT.
DO YOU REMEMBER YOUR GRANDMA BLANCHE?
[overlapping chatter]
- GOODNESS, THIS IS SOMETHING.
- I'M SO GLAD YOU LIKE IT.
- OH, THIS IS BEAUTIFUL. JULIA, THANK YOU.
THAT'S SO USEFUL.
- GRAMS. - YES.
- THAT'S FROM ME. - OKAY.
WHAT IS THIS?
- UH, WHAT YOU'RE LOOKING AT THERE IS AN EGG COOKER
FOR POACHED EGGS.
IT'S GOT A TIMER ON THERE
SO THAT YOUR EGGS WON'T BE RUNNY.
- OH.
I HAVEN'T EATEN EGGS IN YEARS.
THAT WILL BE INTERESTING.
- [chuckles] - SHE DOESN'T EAT EGGS, CROSBY.
- DO MINE NEXT. - OKAY.
- OPEN IT. - OKAY.
OPEN IT? - AND THEN YOU CAN OPEN THIS.
- [laughs] - OKAY.
OKAY.
HERE WE GO. THIS IS SO EXCITING.
IT'S A SNOW GLOBE.
- YAY, I LOVE SNOW GLOBES. I LOVE THAT ONE.
THAT WAS THE BEST ONE IN THE STORE.
- LOOK AT THAT. - SNOWY!
- I PICKED THAT OUT. - SNOW.
- OH, THANK YOU.
- HEY, WILL YOU COME OUT IN THE CAR WITH ME?
I NEED SOME HELP CARRYING SOMETHING.
- I REMEMBER WHEN WE GOT THAT.
- YEAH. - GOOD.
- IT'S JUST--YOU KNOW, IT'S A REALLY HEAVY THING.
I DON'T REALLY HAVE ANYTHING FOR YOU TO CARRY.
I JUST WANT TO TALK THIS OUT WITH YOU.
I'M SORRY YOU SAW WHATEVER-- YOU KNOW, WHATEVER IT WAS.
- NO, NO. - I KNOW.
I DON'T WANNA BOTHER YOU ABOUT IT, AND I--
I FEEL LIKE WE CAN'T EVEN TALK NORMALLY.
I MEAN, I--I REMEMBER,
IN JUNIOR HIGH, I SAW MY TEACHER BUYING
1/5 OF VODKA, AND YOU KNOW, I THOUGHT THAT WAS BAD.
AND THIS IS MUCH, MUCH WORSE. - YEAH, OF COURSE.
YOU DIDN'T SEE TEACHER HAVING SEX WITH MOM, OKAY?
IT'S DIFFERENT AND BAD.
- LOOK, DREW, PEOPLE ARE JUST PEOPLE, OKAY?
I'M A PERSON, AND YOU'RE A PERSON.
AND YOU KNOW, SOME OF THE PEOPLE THINGS THAT I DO
YOU'LL THINK ABOUT SOMEDAY OR SOMETHING, AND YOU KNOW,
YOU'RE--YOU KNOW, I KNOW I'M YOUR MOM, BUT I'M ALSO A--
I'M A PERSON.
- IT'S JUST LIKE MOMS DON'T HAVE SEX, AND SO--
- I KNOW, BUT AT-- ON THE OTHER HAND,
HERE YOU ARE, SO-- - YES, I'M AWARE.
I'M AWARE, SO, YEAH.
- I GUESS MAYBE YOU NEED MORE TIME.
- MM-HMM. YEAH.
- [sighs] WELL, CAN YOU--
CAN WE AT LEAST TRY TO ENJOY THE REST OF THE TRIP AND--
- YEAH. SHOULD WE JUST GO BACK IN?
- CAN I GIVE YOU A H-- HUG?
- LISTEN, TOMORROW IT'LL BE BETTER.
- TOO SOON? - YEAH.
- THANKS FOR HAVING THIS CONVERSATION.
THAT'S NOT A GOOD HANDSHAKE.
IT'S VERY LIMP. - YEAH.
- [sighs]
- NO MORE SUGAR. YOU'RE GONNA GET PINWORMS.
- HEY, YOU'RE GONNA DROP IT. - MAX, STOP IT, OKAY?
GO PLAY WITH YOUR COUSINS, PLEASE.
IT'S, LIKE, GRITTY.
- SO HOW HAVE YOU BEEN, GRANDMA BLANCHE?
- OH, JUST FINE. - YEAH?
- YEAH, I'M VERY INDEPENDENT.
DON'T NEED MUCH FUSSING OVER.
COURSE, IT WOULD BE NICE TO SEE CERTAIN PEOPLE
A LITTLE MORE OFTEN.
- WE'RE HERE NOW, MOM.
- YEAH.
- BUT, UM, DID YOU ENJOY YOUR PARTY AND YOUR AWESOME GIFTS?
- OH, YES. THEY WERE GREAT.
OF COURSE, ZEEK FORGOT AND HAD TO PICK ME UP A HAT
AT THE TOURIST STOP ON THE WAY HERE.
HE WAS ALWAYS FORGETFUL.
BIT OF A WANDERER.
MAYBE THAT'S WHY HE NEVER STAYED IN ONE BUSINESS
VERY LONG, ALWAYS MOVING FROM PLACE TO PLACE.
- YOU KNOW, HE'S HERE, GRANDMA. HE CAN HEAR YOU.
- IT'S OKAY, SON.
GIVE IT A REST. IT'S NOT WORTH IT.
- YOU KNOW, HE BOUGHT YOU A REALLY NICE RECLINER
FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY, AND HE WENT TO A LOT OF TROUBLE
TO PUT IT IN THE BACK OF HIS TRUCK AND ROPE IT DOWN.
AND THEN I WAS SUPPOSED TO WATCH OVER IT, AND IT WAS STOLEN.
AND IT'S MY FAULT, NOT HIS.
- [sighs]
[door slides open]
[dog barking]
[sighs]
- WHAT'S WRONG?
- IT'S NOTHING, MA.
- CROSBY TOLD ME ABOUT THE CHAIR.
DON'T WORRY ABOUT IT.
WHAT AM I GONNA DO WITH A BIG RECLINER ANYWAY?
- IT'S NOT THE CHAIR.
- WELL, WHAT IS IT THEN?
- [sighs]
YOU KNOW WHAT I TOLD MY KIDS
EVERY DAY OF THEIR LIVES?
I MEAN, ALL FOUR OF THEM,
WHETHER I WAS ANGRY OR FRUSTRATED OR SAD OR WHATEVER,
YOU KNOW WHAT I TOLD THEM EVERY DAY?
"I LOVE YOU."
I WANTED IT TO BE CLEAR TO THEM.
THAT'S WHY I TOLD THEM.
THEN YOU HURT YOUR HIP, AND, UM, SUDDENLY I THOUGHT,
JEEZ, I GOTTA GET THOSE KIDS UP THERE.
MA, THEY ARE THE BEST THING THAT I HAVE DONE...
WITH MY LIFE...
AND I WANTED YOU TO SEE THAT.
- THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL.
- THANK YOU.
- [sighs]
I LOVE YOU, ZEEK.
OF COURSE I DO.
YOU'RE MY BABY.
