I still think we should call first
before we go all the way to Boston to

your folks. Jason, they just tell us not
to come.

Oh, here, here, let me, I'll get those
for you, Dad.

Carol, honey, we're almost ready.

Were you speaking to me? No one spoke to
me when this trip was being planned.

Honey, we didn't know we were going
until last night.

Carol, we're worried about Grandma and
Grandpa.

Oh, Maggie, I think you're overreacting.

Then why did they call and cancel the
trip at the last minute? And why did my

dad say everything was swell?

Uh, because it is.

No, Jason, my father doesn't use words
like swell, good, or nice.

Certainly not when I'm in the room.

Let's go, let's go, let's go!

Well, you sure are excited about this
van.

Are you kidding?

Grandpa's going to let me use this
nightstick and his handcuffs and even

his badge.

Hey, maybe you'll get fingerprinted,
too.

Wow!

Well, Dad, again, I just want to thank
you for letting me stay home and earn

some extra money helping Mr. Sachs
fertilize his lawn.

I'm sure that earning money will teach
me a new respect for the dollar and help

me grow as a person.

Bet you'll be pretty good at spreading
manure, too.

And I'm so sorry that I'm going to miss
that sing -along around Grandma's piano.

Yeah.

Well, just remember, if you have any
problems here, you call the Kuzmans next

door. And only one guest stays over
tonight.

This is not fair.

No one thought that old Carol might have
other plans.

No one in this entire house treated me
like a real, living, breathing human

person. Carol, get in the car.

Oh,

and Mike, I know everything will be
fine, because if it isn't...

you'll be grounded until you're 35.

That's it.

Bye, Mom.

Bye, Dad.

See you tomorrow, Mike.

All right, have fun. Bye -bye.

I'm, uh, Ed and Kate's daughter, Maggie.

Good. Excuse us, please.

Oh, did you just walk in there like
that?

Well, we should not stand out here in
the cold waiting for some jerk to open

door. Who are they?

Mom, are these people the relatives you
don't send Christmas cards to?

try and find Grandma and Grandpa.

How are you, folks? Come on in.

Oh, I see you brought your luggage.

Well, don't worry. We'll try to close
this deal by nightfall.

The kiddies, too. This is so nice.

Cocktail Frank?

My name's not Frank.

Who are you?

Who am I?

I don't know you. I don't know him.

Harry Biddle. Great American Dream
Realty Company.

This house is for sale?

Yes.

Oh, well, the sellers are never present
for the showing.

Especially sellers who have put 30 years
into a place. This would break their

heart.

I'm sure.

Well, honey, they haven't sold it yet.

You folks are interested in this house?

Deeply. Oh, well, then let me point out
some of the fine features of this

timeless classic.

If you do, I'm going to cry.

Pardon?

Why are they selling?

You're not interested in hearing about
the house?

I love this house.

I do my homework right by the fireplace
waiting for my daddy to come home and

hang up his gun and give me a hug.

Why are they selling?

Oh, well, I can't really violate their
confidence.

But I will say, retirement income,
balloon payment, disaster.

It's all right. I'm her psychiatrist.

Oh, well, can I do anything?

Yes, you could just give us a moment
alone, please. Thank you.

Come on, Maggie, sweetheart.

Come on, we'll look into this.

Selling this house has to be breaking
their heart. I know. Why didn't they

to us for help?

Oh, my father's pride.

There's no way he could ask us for money
knowing the way he feels about what you

do for a living.

What?

Forget I said that.

I mean, I knew he didn't care for me. I
didn't think he hated my entire

profession. Oh, honey.

Not that he hates your profession. It's
just that he doesn't know what it is.

Oh.

So now, after 17 years, I find this out?
Now, what good would it have done to

let you know that he thinks you're a
quack?

A quack?

Jason, can we talk about this later?

Now, I don't want this house sold until
we get a chance to talk to Mom and Dad.

Sure, sure.

Genuine loft and plaster on real two -by
-four studs.

Excuse me, I don't mean to interrupt,
Harry.

No problem. What you were saying over
there confused me. Were the victims'

bodies found in this room or all through
the house?

His

life

as it should be.

Mike!

Mike!

Let me do it. My cousin Gus works for
Paradise Pizza. I can get us a discount.

All right. So, Mikey, what's the action?

Not much, not much. We're going to eat a
little pizza, watch a little TV.

TV?

Mike, your folks ain't home.

This is like the chance of a lifetime
and you want to watch TV?

It's already started.

Mike, what could be so important that...
Wow.

So, like, when did you get cable?

This is great.

Gus doesn't let us have the pizzas for
nothing. All right.

If he and a couple friends can stop by
after work. How many? Because I don't

think we should have one.

You mentioned women.

All right.

Carol, why don't you and Ben go watch TV
in Grandpa's den?

Great! Sure, it's great for you. You get
to spend time with me.

Ben, don't you go touching any of your
Grandpa's police stuff.

You know me.

Jason, we've got to help him.

I'm not so sure your dad wants our help.

Then again, what do I know? I'm just a
licensed quack. Oh, Jason.

Daddy!

Ed, you almost shot Jason.

Not supposed to be here.

No one's supposed to be here.

Oh, Mom, how are you? It's so good to
see you. I'm fine.

Oh, did you say you were coming and I
forgot?

No, Mom, no.

Always a pleasure to see you.

Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!

So, what's this about selling the house?
Uh, well,

we... thought we'd do this retirement
thing right. Move into a smaller place

with less upkeep.

A condo.

Grandma! Grandpa!

Carol, honey!

Look how she's grown.

Where's Mikey?

Oh, well, Mike couldn't come.

Grandpa! Is that Benny? Yes.

Look out.

All right. Come out with your hands up.

Watch the door.

I'm going to rough him up.

But we're going to fix a little dinner.
Come on, Ben.

Let your dad and granddad talk.

I don't think that'll be necessary. Come
on, Ben. You can peel potatoes with the

other prisoners.

If you and Mom are having financial
problems, we would be... No.

Things are swell.

They're fine.

Even good.

Dad, any money you need, Jason and I
would be more than happy to help.

just in case you can't remember, little
girl, I kept a roof over your head and

food on the table for over 18 years.

Until he came along anyway.

Daddy! Dammit, I can still take care of
your mom and myself without your

charity. Ed, Ed, Ed, please.

There's no reason for you to turn down
this offer just because of how you feel

about me.

Jason, let's not mention... No, no, no,
no. Your dad should overcome his

feelings about me and save this house.

Why hurt your wife, your daughter,
yourself, all in the name of some

pride?

Foolish?

Don't use your shrink talk on me!

The day I accept one dime of your money
will be the day they bury me.

I think that went well, don't you?

Yeah, Jerry, listen.

Call Bruce Vinegar.

Tell him to party central to 15 Robin
Hood Lane.

Yeah. Uh, excuse me. Slug is it?

I don't think we should invite any more
people.

Well, what's it to you?

Didn't you hear? The bozo that lives
here?

Parents are out of town.

Bozo? Hey, listen.

Remember me?

Linda McManus.

We had a karate class together.

Yeah, yeah, of course I remember you.
You have got killer hands.

I mean, I didn't mean... I know what you
mean.

Mike, come here.

Would you excuse me for just a second?
Okay, but just a second.

Michael,

there are two guys out back throwing up
and a guy upstairs shaving.

I mean, this has got to be the coolest
party I've ever been to.

Shaving?

Mike, I need a couple bucks. Your mom's
car ran out of gas.

Eddie, you can't take my mom's car.

I didn't. Frank did.

Who's Frank?

I thought you knew him.

No.

All right.

Gus's pizza mobile wouldn't start,
right? So he calls Frank and says we'd

to pick up our own pizzas. And since
they're free, could we make a couple

deliveries? In my mom's car?

What was Frank supposed to do? What was
Frank?

What was Frank supposed to do?

All right, all right, all right.

Relax, baby. It's under control.

Now just give me a little gas money.

Jake, Dad, take the money. It's your
home, too.

Well, your father's the boss. And on our
wedding day, I promise to love, honor,

and obey.

Mom, Mom, Mom. Every modern woman knows
obey is just a figure of speech. Maybe

that's why every modern woman seems to
get divorced.

Kate, the kids are glued to the piano.
They're waiting for one of your songs.

Oh, good. I just got the sheet music to
Like a Virgin.

Actually, they're not glued. They're
handcuffed.

Oh, Jason, I got nowhere with my mother.
It's up to us. What are we going to do?

What are we going to do?

I don't have the slightest idea.

Well, we can't let them lose their home.

Jason, all they need is $6 ,000.

Well, correct me if I'm wrong. Didn't we
just offer your father money?

And you're giving up just because he
said he'd rather be dead?

Forgive me. What was I thinking?

It's better.

Okay.

So what's your plan?

I don't have a plan.

Do you think it's wise to proceed
without a plan?

We just heard this record.

That was great.

The band should be here any minute.

The party is completely out of control.

I know, man. Congratulations.

I've got to do something to stop it
without everybody thinking I'm a wimp.

That's like it. I'd like to make a party
yesterday.

Hey, bud.

Excuse me. Do you mind if I cut in?

years.

Hello, police?

Yeah, this is, um, Mr. Gandhi.

Yes, Bob Gandhi.

Yes, I am a very peace -loving man, and
I am living on Robin Hood Lane.

Yes, it is normally a very peaceful
street, but tonight there is a very,

loud party at number 15.

Yes, it is, I believe, the fever home.

It isn't very hard to believe, since
they are such a loving, peaceful family.

Yes, and please be going easy on this
evil boy called Mike.

He's a very, very spiritual boy, and
none of this could possibly be his

Still busy.

I wonder who Mike will be talking to.

Mom, come and take your turn.

Yeah. Am I doing this right?

Is he in his den? Yeah.

Okay, Maggie, you're the one who wanted
me to come up with a plan.

What are you going to do?

I have no idea.

Ed?

Come to make another generous offer, did
you?

Ready with another gracious turndown?

No, I didn't come to offer you anything,
Ed, except an apology.

Here.

I request it.

Well,

you know, I thought that maybe deep down
I really did want to embarrass you a

little when I offered you that money. I
admit that.

I'm sorry.

Sit down.

Grab a couple of glasses there. Okay.

Game of checkers?

Sure.

How are we going to get any ginger ale
in these?

Ginger ale?

That's Irish, man.

No, you can't drink that straight.

Blasphemy! Oh, big talk.

Well, you just what?

A one -sip big deal.

Bet you can't drain that. Keep watching.

$100. You're on.

Well, well. Can't be that tough.

Double or nothing says I can do it.

You?

You're on.

I won again.

Well, you have to give me a chance to
get even.

Ben Carroll? Go ribbon!

Where are the cops?

Where are the cops?

Let's shove all the furniture into the
kitchen.

Um, Michael, tell your mother she should
have her brakes checked.

Oh, brakes are still in the back seat,
and for the record, he puked. Not me.

Pizza! Remove that.

All right, that's it.

Cops or no cops, this party is over.

It's like my life.

this is not cool i don't care i want all
you people especially you slug just

double or nothing, starting at $100.

Right. So you owe me, then one goes to
two, that's four, eight, 16, 32, $6

$6 ,400?

What?

That's what it comes to. I don't get it
either.

Oh, sure you don't, Ed. No, no, nice
job. You got me.

How did I do that? I only had three
shots.

You never got all the way through one of
yours.

The big Ed finally shows the overpaid
psychiatrist just who's smarter.

I don't like to be taken, Ed.

I didn't take you.

I won that fair and square.

Well, I'm not paying.

The hell you're not. I want my money.

Well?

Jason, you're not leaving this house
until I get my $6 ,400.

We get to keep our house and you get to
keep your pride.

Hey, I told you I'd take care of you,
didn't I?

Thank you, honey.

Hey, I just lost six grand and I may
lose my lunch.

I knew you'd take care of me.

Thanks for your help, officer. I can
handle it from here. You are very, very

welcome, Mr. Gandhi.

We came with Grandma and Grandpa. Oh,
fine, fine.

Actually, your father was a hero this
weekend. He saved a house.

Oh, really?

What a coincidence.

What?

Oh, you know, it's just nice to know
that you guys are up there and I was

here. Hey, it's a wonderful world.

I thought your manure spreading job was
over yesterday.
