1
00:00:06,105 --> 00:00:07,736
<i>There's something
scary going on</i>

2
00:00:08,001 --> 00:00:09,800
<i>in houses all over America.</i>

3
00:00:10,241 --> 00:00:12,545
<i>Nobody's talking about it,
but it's happening.</i>

4
00:00:23,725 --> 00:00:25,094
I can't sleep.

5
00:00:25,470 --> 00:00:26,902
I'll go.

6
00:00:31,679 --> 00:00:34,150
<i>That's right. I'm talking about
the 3:00 A.M. shuffle.</i>

7
00:00:34,638 --> 00:00:37,685
<i>If you're a parent and you've never
done it, you're lying.</i>

8
00:00:55,510 --> 00:00:56,974
<i>Yep, there's something scary
going on</i>

9
00:00:57,077 --> 00:00:58,974
<i>in houses all over America,</i>

10
00:00:59,190 --> 00:01:01,334
<i>and we're putting up with it.</i>

11
00:01:01,918 --> 00:01:04,765
You all right? Ugh.
Brick got into our bed last night,

12
00:01:04,862 --> 00:01:07,534
and I had to sleep on the couch again.
Well, the weekend's coming up.

13
00:01:07,646 --> 00:01:08,940
You can catch up
on your Z's then.

14
00:01:09,110 --> 00:01:11,918
No. Brick's got a book fair
he needs to get to,

15
00:01:12,021 --> 00:01:14,758
and sue needs jeggings...
whatever those are...

16
00:01:14,893 --> 00:01:17,174
and Axl has a science project
due Monday

17
00:01:17,294 --> 00:01:19,766
and needs a poster board
and an idea.

18
00:01:19,998 --> 00:01:22,613
What are you and Mike doing?
Uh, that.

19
00:01:22,862 --> 00:01:24,543
Can't you just tell them "no"?

20
00:01:24,677 --> 00:01:28,564
<i>Bob, Bob, Bob.
You so don't have kids.</i>

21
00:01:28,686 --> 00:01:30,997
That I know of.

22
00:01:31,783 --> 00:01:32,524
What you doin'?

23
00:01:32,749 --> 00:01:34,158
Well, cross-country is over,

24
00:01:34,261 --> 00:01:36,606
and like a caterpillar,
I've shed my sweatshirt

25
00:01:36,702 --> 00:01:39,542
to emerge reborn for the next
challenge that lies ahead.

26
00:01:40,893 --> 00:01:42,974
I'm trying to decide
what to try out for next.

27
00:01:44,654 --> 00:01:46,846
So what do you think...
cheerleading?

28
00:01:46,982 --> 00:01:48,918
What else?
Basketball?

29
00:01:49,038 --> 00:01:51,517
Next.
Synchronized swimming?

30
00:01:51,638 --> 00:01:54,742
Keep goin'. The everybody-makes-it
lunchroom follies?

31
00:01:54,854 --> 00:01:56,709
Hello. Now that one there
seems interesting.

32
00:01:56,822 --> 00:01:58,918
It's just this talent show thing
at lunchtime.

33
00:01:59,022 --> 00:02:01,262
I don't even think there are
tryouts or anything.

34
00:02:01,357 --> 00:02:04,021
You just sign up.
I'm really liking the sound of that.

35
00:02:04,117 --> 00:02:08,437
I made dinner!
Come get your bags!

36
00:02:08,582 --> 00:02:11,782
In here.
Okay, here you go.

37
00:02:11,901 --> 00:02:13,376
We've got tacos,

38
00:02:13,462 --> 00:02:15,917
burgers and fries, sub shop.

39
00:02:16,030 --> 00:02:18,479
I thought we were getting
a bucket of chicken.

40
00:02:18,590 --> 00:02:21,718
I wanted chicken. I know.
I wanted chicken, too, but then the kids called

41
00:02:21,822 --> 00:02:23,261
and they all wanted
something different,

42
00:02:23,383 --> 00:02:24,646
so I went to three
different drive-thrus,

43
00:02:24,781 --> 00:02:26,710
and I wasn't about to go
to a fourth place just for us,

44
00:02:26,815 --> 00:02:29,718
so we got this.
What's this?

45
00:02:29,830 --> 00:02:34,838
Chinese chicken salad from the taco place.
This isn't chicken. Chicken comes in a bucket.

46
00:02:34,958 --> 00:02:37,558
Way to go, mom!
They forgot my shake!

47
00:02:37,679 --> 00:02:40,614
No. Are you serious?
They didn't put it in?

48
00:02:40,750 --> 00:02:42,925
The whole reason I wanted you
to go there was for the shake!

49
00:02:43,015 --> 00:02:46,117
I dip my fries in the shake!
Fine. I'll go back.

50
00:02:46,223 --> 00:02:48,317
Wait. No, hold on, Frankie.
This is crazy.

51
00:02:48,405 --> 00:02:50,356
You just got home. You went
to three different places.

52
00:02:50,444 --> 00:02:55,662
You're not going back out. I'll do it.
Can I have pop from the taco place?

53
00:02:55,774 --> 00:02:56,900
I'll take more fries!

54
00:02:56,998 --> 00:02:59,174
Wait. What are we
doing here, Mike?

55
00:02:59,317 --> 00:03:02,294
What? Uh, shake, more fries,

56
00:03:02,382 --> 00:03:05,101
a pop from the taco place,
not the burger place. I got it.

57
00:03:05,197 --> 00:03:08,693
When did this happen? When did
the kids become our bosses?

58
00:03:08,799 --> 00:03:10,374
Napkins!

59
00:03:10,630 --> 00:03:12,927
Bob was right.
What about us?

60
00:03:13,028 --> 00:03:15,670
We never do anything
for ourselves anymore.

61
00:03:15,759 --> 00:03:17,196
We're always catering to them.

62
00:03:17,302 --> 00:03:19,821
<i>As soon as I said it,
I realized it was true.</i>

63
00:03:19,918 --> 00:03:21,262
<i>Somewhere along the way,</i>

64
00:03:21,310 --> 00:03:24,014
<i>we had become second-class
citizens in our own house.</i>

65
00:03:25,678 --> 00:03:27,733
Sue, how many times
do I have to tell you

66
00:03:27,821 --> 00:03:29,590
to take your backpack
to your room?

67
00:03:29,693 --> 00:03:30,966
I'm not doing it for you!

68
00:03:33,133 --> 00:03:34,941
<i>Is "wizards
of waverly place" over yet?</i>

69
00:03:35,062 --> 00:03:36,670
No!

70
00:03:39,157 --> 00:03:41,798
Oh, thank God. A rest stop.
Pull over. I really gotta go.

71
00:03:41,894 --> 00:03:44,719
We are not stopping!
We're only 52 Miles from home, mom!

72
00:03:44,846 --> 00:03:48,157
Fine.
If traffic's good, I think I can hold it.

73
00:03:52,982 --> 00:03:55,046
We're pathetic, Mike.
Pathetic.

74
00:03:55,149 --> 00:03:57,197
Our parents would have
never put up with this.

75
00:03:57,294 --> 00:04:00,814
Hmm. I hated green peppers, but
my mom always made me eat them,

76
00:04:00,909 --> 00:04:02,334
'cause that's what we had.

77
00:04:02,431 --> 00:04:04,998
On Thursdays, I had to choke
down those green peppers.

78
00:04:05,109 --> 00:04:07,438
My dad watched "the hoosier
farm report" every night.

79
00:04:07,550 --> 00:04:09,941
And guess what I watched?
"The hoosier farm report."

80
00:04:10,038 --> 00:04:12,741
And here's our kids
stretched out on our couch,

81
00:04:12,838 --> 00:04:15,294
watching our big tv,
eating like kings,

82
00:04:15,414 --> 00:04:17,382
and we're standing here
hunched over the counter,

83
00:04:17,493 --> 00:04:19,462
eating crappy shreds of chicken
from the taco place.

84
00:04:19,581 --> 00:04:22,525
How did we let this happen?
When did this start?

85
00:04:22,678 --> 00:04:25,254
I don't know. But I'll
tell you when it stops.

86
00:04:25,374 --> 00:04:27,613
No, no. That clock is broken.
Axl was playing ball

87
00:04:27,710 --> 00:04:29,478
in the house
after I told him not to.

88
00:04:34,430 --> 00:04:36,182
What are you doing?
I'll tell you what we're doing.

89
00:04:36,270 --> 00:04:38,861
We're taking back the house.

90
00:04:40,904 --> 00:04:43,839
Come on. Get up.
Hey, we were here first.

91
00:04:43,968 --> 00:04:45,936
You were? Because I don't
remember seeing you

92
00:04:46,015 --> 00:04:49,536
in 1991 when I bought this house.
"Taking back the house"... what does that even mean?

93
00:04:49,617 --> 00:04:51,776
It means that we've been letting
you get away with way too much,

94
00:04:51,952 --> 00:04:55,064
but that is over.
It's our house, our tv,

95
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:56,456
and we're gonna watch
what we wanna watch.

96
00:04:56,552 --> 00:04:59,033
What, you mean like after our show is over?
No, I mean like right now.

97
00:04:59,135 --> 00:05:01,368
So we're doing picture-in-picture?
We call the big picture.

98
00:05:01,489 --> 00:05:06,511
<i>No, you do not get a picture.
You are out of the picture. Well, we... but...</i>

99
00:05:06,616 --> 00:05:08,505
Ahh! But... but what are...
what are we supposed to do?

100
00:05:08,599 --> 00:05:10,416
We'll be... bored.

101
00:05:10,520 --> 00:05:12,617
We don't care.
That's the beauty of it. Mm-hmm.

102
00:05:12,719 --> 00:05:14,631
This is unfair. You're parents.

103
00:05:14,727 --> 00:05:16,143
It's your job
to put your kids first.

104
00:05:16,312 --> 00:05:20,104
Who says? (Scoffs) I'll tell you who says.
"The giving tree."

105
00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:21,705
You're the ones
who read us the book.

106
00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:22,928
The tree gave up all its leaves

107
00:05:23,008 --> 00:05:25,136
and... and its apples
and its branches,

108
00:05:25,528 --> 00:05:28,625
and it let the little boy cut
it down so it could be a canoe,

109
00:05:28,728 --> 00:05:32,112
and it didn't complain and go
nuts and kick anyone off the tv.

110
00:05:32,223 --> 00:05:34,432
No! It wanted to be a stump!
It was happy!

111
00:05:34,528 --> 00:05:37,016
I don't think he was happy.

112
00:05:37,111 --> 00:05:40,249
I don't think he had the guts to
do what we're doing... say "no."

113
00:05:40,343 --> 00:05:41,872
Well, your dad and I
aren't stumps.

114
00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,103
Not anymore.

115
00:05:47,001 --> 00:05:49,337
<i>That night, we slept better
than we had in weeks.</i>

116
00:05:49,456 --> 00:05:52,303
<i>And the
next day, I took it further</i>

117
00:05:52,423 --> 00:05:55,183
<i>and started a little extreme
home makeover of my own.</i>

118
00:05:55,289 --> 00:05:56,432
Oh, hey, honey.
How was school?

119
00:05:56,528 --> 00:05:59,616
What's going on?
What is this?

120
00:05:59,696 --> 00:06:03,151
Oh, I'm taking back my house.
I thought that was just yesterday!

121
00:06:03,288 --> 00:06:04,560
No, no.

122
00:06:04,664 --> 00:06:06,679
I have tripped over
my last tennis ball.

123
00:06:06,800 --> 00:06:08,872
I have sat on my last joystick.

124
00:06:08,968 --> 00:06:12,417
You guys are gonna start keeping
all your crap in your rooms.

125
00:06:12,511 --> 00:06:13,856
So dig in this pile
for what's yours,

126
00:06:13,944 --> 00:06:17,280
'cause anything that's left
is going in the trash.

127
00:06:17,408 --> 00:06:21,320
Oh, my God. What did you do
to the family room?

128
00:06:21,431 --> 00:06:23,863
What did you do
to the family room?!

129
00:06:23,993 --> 00:06:27,090
You like it? I've always
wanted it this way.

130
00:06:27,193 --> 00:06:29,384
No, I don't like it.

131
00:06:29,504 --> 00:06:32,215
It's like you're trying
to pretend you never had us!

132
00:06:32,312 --> 00:06:36,864
Dad, look what she did
to the family room.

133
00:06:36,993 --> 00:06:38,881
Oh, hey. Looks great.

134
00:06:38,976 --> 00:06:42,112
I know, right? We actually have
a pretty nice family room.

135
00:06:42,223 --> 00:06:43,935
I'm not embarrassed to have
people over anymore.

136
00:06:44,056 --> 00:06:46,144
Don't worry.
We're not having people over.

137
00:06:46,289 --> 00:06:49,063
Can one of you take me
to the library?

138
00:06:49,176 --> 00:06:51,640
Brick, do you not even
notice what they did?

139
00:06:52,832 --> 00:06:56,520
Weird. So can one of you
take me to the library?

140
00:06:56,625 --> 00:06:58,272
I feel like reading about Peru.

141
00:06:58,399 --> 00:06:59,960
No, brick, sorry. Can't.

142
00:07:00,064 --> 00:07:01,776
Actually, won't.

143
00:07:01,927 --> 00:07:04,304
I just got home from work
and I am going to eat my pizza,

144
00:07:04,391 --> 00:07:06,128
for once, while it's still hot.

145
00:07:08,344 --> 00:07:09,584
That is really annoying.

146
00:07:09,720 --> 00:07:11,575
If you're really dying
to find out about Peru,

147
00:07:11,712 --> 00:07:13,112
look it up online.

148
00:07:13,536 --> 00:07:16,591
But I like books. I like
the feel of paper in my hands.

149
00:07:16,705 --> 00:07:18,520
Well, I like the feel
of pizza in my hand,

150
00:07:18,625 --> 00:07:19,976
so nobody's taking you
anywhere right now.

151
00:07:22,001 --> 00:07:23,472
God, if you don't want
to do anything for us,

152
00:07:23,544 --> 00:07:26,263
why'd you even have kids?
'Cause babies are cute.

153
00:07:26,352 --> 00:07:29,289
If you'd had come out teenagers, we
might've had to rethink.

154
00:07:29,457 --> 00:07:30,816
Great. You guys got
the wrong pizza.

155
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,665
It has yellow things
all over it. What is this?

156
00:07:32,768 --> 00:07:36,960
Pineapple pizza!
Oh, Mike.

157
00:07:37,072 --> 00:07:38,320
Still good, huh?
Mwah.

158
00:07:38,400 --> 00:07:39,592
I still don't get it.
Why are you doing this?

159
00:07:39,696 --> 00:07:41,216
What is this about? You trying
to teach us some kind of lesson?

160
00:07:41,313 --> 00:07:43,808
Axl, you really think
we have nothing better to do

161
00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,431
than sit around, thinking up
lessons to teach you?

162
00:07:46,528 --> 00:07:49,088
This isn't about you.
Your mom and I love this pizza,

163
00:07:49,185 --> 00:07:52,424
and we never get it. Now we're getting it.
But we don't like this pizza.

164
00:07:52,519 --> 00:07:55,417
You'll eat what we provide.
In the wild,

165
00:07:55,503 --> 00:07:57,680
when the lion brings back
the zebra he just killed,

166
00:07:57,776 --> 00:07:59,632
the cubs don't get to say...

167
00:07:59,735 --> 00:08:01,727
"We don't like zebra.
We wanted wildebeest."

168
00:08:01,856 --> 00:08:04,424
When the lion brings back zebra,
everybody eats zebra.

169
00:08:04,544 --> 00:08:07,287
But I don't like zebra!
I want wildebeest!

170
00:08:07,417 --> 00:08:10,712
Well, all we've got is zebra.
But the zebra has pineapple on it.

171
00:08:10,832 --> 00:08:12,944
Wait. Who's the lion
in this story?

172
00:08:13,071 --> 00:08:13,961
I'm the lion.

173
00:08:14,096 --> 00:08:15,984
I'm the lion
in all the stories.

174
00:08:21,848 --> 00:08:22,703
What are you doing?

175
00:08:22,840 --> 00:08:24,872
We're afraid to go in.
We don't feel welcome.

176
00:08:24,992 --> 00:08:27,224
They're not backing down, axl.

177
00:08:27,328 --> 00:08:29,496
I don't even know
who they are anymore.

178
00:08:32,177 --> 00:08:33,360
You know, carly and I are
working on this dance

179
00:08:33,463 --> 00:08:35,608
for the lunchtime follies,
right? And we saw

180
00:08:35,696 --> 00:08:37,248
these polka-dot umbrellas
at the mall that are, like,

181
00:08:37,368 --> 00:08:39,656
essential to the number.
So I called mom and asked

182
00:08:39,768 --> 00:08:41,209
if she could pick one up
on her way home from work.

183
00:08:41,312 --> 00:08:46,249
She said "no." I should just use whatever
we have in the closet. That's nothing.

184
00:08:46,352 --> 00:08:47,609
Today she doesn't remind me
to bring my lunch,

185
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:49,808
and then when I text her, she
refuses to bring it to school.

186
00:08:49,944 --> 00:08:52,400
I had no lunch.
No lunch!

187
00:08:52,511 --> 00:08:55,336
No one's taken me to the library
in two days!

188
00:08:55,512 --> 00:08:57,793
Well, just complaining
about it's not gonna help us.

189
00:08:57,936 --> 00:09:00,505
The more we complain,
the stronger they get,

190
00:09:00,616 --> 00:09:03,258
and the longer they live.

191
00:09:03,600 --> 00:09:06,272
The Internet has no paper.
It doesn't smell like paper.

192
00:09:06,368 --> 00:09:07,440
It doesn't feel like paper.

193
00:09:07,568 --> 00:09:08,951
Okay, here's the plan...

194
00:09:09,064 --> 00:09:12,288
we're taking back the house
from them taking back the house.

195
00:09:12,392 --> 00:09:13,432
You see,
it's a double takeback.

196
00:09:13,536 --> 00:09:15,200
Starting today,
we're not gonna react.

197
00:09:15,312 --> 00:09:19,088
We're just gonna play along.
They'll never know what hit 'em.

198
00:09:25,400 --> 00:09:26,552
Hey, axl.
What you watching?

199
00:09:26,648 --> 00:09:29,287
It's Southern belle week
on "say yes to the dress."

200
00:09:29,416 --> 00:09:32,247
Everyone's from the South.
Oh, awesome! Mind if I join?

201
00:09:32,408 --> 00:09:36,032
<i>Mm. (Man) Last week on
"say yes to the dress"...</i>

202
00:09:36,143 --> 00:09:37,178
Oh! Can't do it.

203
00:09:41,936 --> 00:09:43,392
No.

204
00:09:44,576 --> 00:09:46,360
<i>Yep,
it was a strange new world.</i>

205
00:09:47,296 --> 00:09:49,392
<i>And brick knew if he had a hope
of surviving in it,</i>

206
00:09:49,496 --> 00:09:50,695
<i>he was gonna have to adapt.</i>

207
00:09:50,824 --> 00:09:52,961
"P"...

208
00:09:54,392 --> 00:09:55,152
"E"...

209
00:09:55,864 --> 00:09:56,664
"R"...

210
00:09:56,856 --> 00:09:58,056
"U."

211
00:10:08,106 --> 00:10:08,897
<i>You may think Mike and I were
crazy for what we were doing,</i>

212
00:10:09,090 --> 00:10:12,857
<i>but the only crazy thing is
we hadn't done it sooner.</i>

213
00:10:17,889 --> 00:10:21,602
Mom, can you please change the station?
I can, but I won't.

214
00:10:28,354 --> 00:10:29,969
Is that the last cookie?
Yep, it is.

215
00:10:30,090 --> 00:10:34,466
Dad. (Mouth full) My mistake.
There's one more.

216
00:10:40,769 --> 00:10:41,465
Mom, dad,

217
00:10:41,570 --> 00:10:43,858
a Nigerian prince
desperately needs our help.

218
00:10:44,001 --> 00:10:46,074
There's a coup, and he needs
our bank account information

219
00:10:46,185 --> 00:10:48,721
in order to transfer millions
of dollars out of his country.

220
00:10:48,810 --> 00:10:52,074
In exchange for our help,
he'll give us $3,000!

221
00:10:52,185 --> 00:10:54,385
Hurry! The bank closes
in half an hour.

222
00:10:54,530 --> 00:10:55,882
It's a scam, brick.

223
00:10:55,993 --> 00:10:57,713
Not everything
on the Internet is true.

224
00:10:57,866 --> 00:11:01,017
So there's not beautiful singles
in my area dying to meet me?

225
00:11:01,154 --> 00:11:04,449
I have to update my blog.

226
00:11:07,689 --> 00:11:11,193
Oh, shoot! My bus is outside,
and nobody packed me a snack!

227
00:11:11,346 --> 00:11:12,929
I need a paper towel roll
for science!

228
00:11:13,074 --> 00:11:14,202
Good luck with that.

229
00:11:14,361 --> 00:11:18,114
Fine! Just sit there
sipping your coffee

230
00:11:18,209 --> 00:11:20,480
while we run around!
That's the plan.

231
00:11:22,882 --> 00:11:25,657
You know, I'm pretty sure
we could sue you for this.

232
00:11:25,738 --> 00:11:28,897
I... well, brick... found
this web site with a lawyer

233
00:11:28,993 --> 00:11:30,290
who will take our case
for 29 bucks,

234
00:11:30,385 --> 00:11:33,866
and I'm pretty confident we would win.
Oh, no. I hope I don't lose custody.

235
00:11:33,961 --> 00:11:36,644
Mom, about the
polka-dot umbrella...

236
00:11:36,729 --> 00:11:37,906
No.

237
00:11:45,626 --> 00:11:46,890
Brick!

238
00:11:47,058 --> 00:11:48,474
Huh? Brick, what are you doing?
You have school.

239
00:11:48,586 --> 00:11:50,145
I woke up
in the middle of the night,

240
00:11:50,242 --> 00:11:52,489
and you won't let me
in your bed, so I came in here

241
00:11:52,634 --> 00:11:54,810
to look up native Americans,
which linked me

242
00:11:54,905 --> 00:11:56,554
to the Albuquerque
balloon festival,

243
00:11:56,657 --> 00:12:00,002
which linked me to stars, which
linked me to "us" magazine,

244
00:12:00,089 --> 00:12:02,145
and it took me all night
to finish clicking

245
00:12:02,241 --> 00:12:05,394
on who wore it best. Well, that's just great.
You missed the bus.

246
00:12:05,520 --> 00:12:06,985
I voted for Ashley Tisdale,

247
00:12:07,114 --> 00:12:09,098
but now
I'm second-guessing myself.

248
00:12:09,217 --> 00:12:11,105
I should make up
a new user name

249
00:12:11,209 --> 00:12:13,338
and vote
for Scarlett Johansson instead.

250
00:12:13,441 --> 00:12:16,034
It's hard
'cause they both wore it well.

251
00:12:16,193 --> 00:12:18,890
Scarlett Johansson.

252
00:12:19,634 --> 00:12:20,826
I'll meet you in the car.

253
00:12:20,986 --> 00:12:23,169
Unh-unh. I'm not driving.
You've got feet.

254
00:12:23,266 --> 00:12:25,953
You're gonna use 'em.
Actions have consequences.

255
00:12:26,082 --> 00:12:28,185
Maybe not before,
but they do now.

256
00:12:36,665 --> 00:12:39,777
Frankie, what's going on?
I saw brick walking to school.

257
00:12:39,881 --> 00:12:42,330
He said he missed the bus and you
wouldn't drive him. That is correct.

258
00:12:42,402 --> 00:12:45,874
Oh, no. Are you and Mike having
problems? Did you lose your job?

259
00:12:45,978 --> 00:12:47,977
Are you drinking mouthwash
to get drunk

260
00:12:48,082 --> 00:12:52,306
in the middle of the day? No.
Mike and I have decided not to be stumps anymore.

261
00:12:52,393 --> 00:12:55,258
If brick misses the bus,
he has to walk to school.

262
00:12:55,393 --> 00:12:59,608
Oh, look! The little river band
cover band

263
00:12:59,715 --> 00:13:01,984
is playing at t.J. Schnauser's
on Wednesday.

264
00:13:02,114 --> 00:13:03,426
I love little river band.

265
00:13:03,521 --> 00:13:06,729
Me, too. Mike and I used to make
out to them when we made out.

266
00:13:06,849 --> 00:13:11,442
On a Wednesday night? Yeah.
We'll get Sean and axl to babysit.

267
00:13:11,554 --> 00:13:12,593
Oh, it would be so much fun.

268
00:13:12,698 --> 00:13:17,082
I haven't been to a concert since the state fair.
I don't know if Sean will want to.

269
00:13:17,170 --> 00:13:18,498
That is stump mentality.

270
00:13:18,626 --> 00:13:21,098
We put a roof over their heads
and food on their table.

271
00:13:21,202 --> 00:13:23,306
We will tell them
they are babysitting.

272
00:13:23,410 --> 00:13:24,658
Are you with me, Nancy?

273
00:13:24,754 --> 00:13:26,466
We're not just gonna
take back our house.

274
00:13:26,568 --> 00:13:28,905
We're gonna take back
our lives.

275
00:13:37,130 --> 00:13:38,489
Wow! They were awesome!

276
00:13:38,586 --> 00:13:40,578
You'd never know
the little river band cover band

277
00:13:40,688 --> 00:13:42,658
is not the little river band.
Yeah.

278
00:13:42,754 --> 00:13:43,905
Why haven't we done this before?

279
00:13:44,043 --> 00:13:47,075
We should! We should do this
every Wednesday.

280
00:13:47,185 --> 00:13:49,954
Mike, we're doing it every Wednesday.
Beer and dollar wings?

281
00:13:50,051 --> 00:13:51,642
Hell, yeah, we're doing it
every Wednesday.

282
00:13:51,753 --> 00:13:54,913
Oh, no more for us.
We gotta head home.

283
00:13:55,025 --> 00:13:56,648
What?!
What? No!

284
00:13:56,762 --> 00:13:57,754
You can't leave now.

285
00:13:57,856 --> 00:13:59,202
They haven't even done
"lonesome loser."

286
00:13:59,298 --> 00:14:01,354
You can't leave
before "lonesome loser."

287
00:14:01,458 --> 00:14:02,985
It's just,
we told Dottie and Shelly

288
00:14:03,074 --> 00:14:05,073
we'd be home in time
for their bedtime ritual.

289
00:14:05,210 --> 00:14:07,273
They love the way
Ron says "good night"

290
00:14:07,400 --> 00:14:09,090
in the voice
of their lambie pie.

291
00:14:09,201 --> 00:14:12,218
I say...
Good night.

292
00:14:12,394 --> 00:14:15,232
It's like a sheep.
They like it.

293
00:14:15,338 --> 00:14:18,170
Oh, come on. You should at least
stay and...

294
00:14:19,226 --> 00:14:20,298
Oh, shoot.
I have to go, too.

295
00:14:20,409 --> 00:14:23,488
<i>Ugh. What? Nicole's texting me.
She needs help with her homework.</i>

296
00:14:23,586 --> 00:14:25,440
People, this is exactly
what I'm talking about.

297
00:14:25,546 --> 00:14:27,497
You are allowed to put
your own happiness first

298
00:14:27,602 --> 00:14:29,578
once in a while.
Is that true?

299
00:14:29,682 --> 00:14:32,762
Yeah. Yes!
We took our lives back a week ago,

300
00:14:32,873 --> 00:14:34,569
and it has been like
being on vacation

301
00:14:34,666 --> 00:14:37,529
in Paris or myrtle beach.
It's that good.

302
00:14:37,634 --> 00:14:41,346
And just last night,
we kissed... on a Tuesday.

303
00:14:41,449 --> 00:14:44,250
She's asking if we've left yet.

304
00:14:44,346 --> 00:14:45,978
Think about when you were kids.

305
00:14:46,065 --> 00:14:48,714
Did your parents spend their
whole weekend entertaining you?

306
00:14:48,802 --> 00:14:50,906
Did they cater
to your every whim? No.

307
00:14:51,018 --> 00:14:54,652
Somewhere along the way, we all started drinking
the kool-aid. And how about all the weekends

308
00:14:54,754 --> 00:14:55,785
we spent with the kids
at the zoo?

309
00:14:55,922 --> 00:15:00,570
They don't remember any of it. Might as well take 'em to a bar.
We took Sean to the space needle.

310
00:15:00,666 --> 00:15:02,521
He said it was boring.

311
00:15:02,626 --> 00:15:03,834
<i>Oh, God, now she's texting me.</i>

312
00:15:03,930 --> 00:15:06,817
Algebra homework.
I hate algebra.

313
00:15:06,937 --> 00:15:08,538
What are we gonna do?
Shh! Let me think.

314
00:15:08,617 --> 00:15:10,874
What is there to think about?
You did your homework.

315
00:15:10,961 --> 00:15:13,538
You studied algebra.
You made the bus.

316
00:15:13,635 --> 00:15:16,265
And now it's our time to take
a night out for ourselves

317
00:15:16,320 --> 00:15:18,346
to just dance
to the sweet sounds

318
00:15:18,481 --> 00:15:20,313
of the little river band
cover band.

319
00:15:20,400 --> 00:15:23,018
Are you joining the revolution
or not?

320
00:15:23,290 --> 00:15:25,401
I'm texting her back "no."

321
00:15:25,537 --> 00:15:26,904
I'm shaking.

322
00:15:27,617 --> 00:15:28,962
What did she text back?

323
00:15:29,090 --> 00:15:31,690
I don't know.
I'm turning it off.

324
00:15:31,809 --> 00:15:33,434
Whoo!

325
00:15:38,145 --> 00:15:39,562
We're changing the world, Mike,

326
00:15:39,657 --> 00:15:41,226
one couple at a time!

327
00:15:58,298 --> 00:16:00,306
<i>I can't believe
you are just getting home!</i>

328
00:16:00,418 --> 00:16:01,634
It is 10:20!

329
00:16:01,754 --> 00:16:05,145
Wow! (Laughs) No wonder I'm so tired.

330
00:16:05,241 --> 00:16:06,754
You leave me alone
with sue and brick.

331
00:16:06,856 --> 00:16:09,218
They won't go to bed.
You're out doing God knows what,

332
00:16:09,313 --> 00:16:10,634
and I just don't understand

333
00:16:10,777 --> 00:16:15,306
what do you wanna hear? E
I appreciate you. I'm bad.

334
00:16:15,417 --> 00:16:17,730
You're good. I haven't been
focusing enough on my grades.

335
00:16:17,834 --> 00:16:20,290
I should call grandma,
clean my bed, pick up my pants.

336
00:16:20,409 --> 00:16:23,546
What? What do you want from me?
Just tell me, and I'll do it

337
00:16:23,641 --> 00:16:25,674
so we can go back
to our normal lives.

338
00:16:25,803 --> 00:16:30,569
Okay, axl. Well, uh...
Here's the truth.

339
00:16:30,689 --> 00:16:35,667
This whole thing has been
about... um... your grades.

340
00:16:35,794 --> 00:16:37,378
Thank you.

341
00:16:37,481 --> 00:16:41,065
God! You're always on me
about my grades! Ugh!

342
00:16:41,193 --> 00:16:43,321
Mom, dad...

343
00:16:43,418 --> 00:16:45,073
The follies are tomorrow,

344
00:16:45,170 --> 00:16:47,170
and I just have to have
that polka-dot umbrella,

345
00:16:47,250 --> 00:16:49,201
'cause the twins are gonna have
matching sparkle scrunchies

346
00:16:49,298 --> 00:16:50,635
for their act...
go to bed, sue.

347
00:16:54,130 --> 00:16:54,994
Brick! Bed.

348
00:16:55,329 --> 00:16:58,218
Okay! Hold on! I'm just
bidding on a speedboat!

349
00:16:58,347 --> 00:17:00,010
I think I'm gonna get it!

350
00:17:02,122 --> 00:17:02,723
Mornin'.

351
00:17:02,842 --> 00:17:06,481
Whew! Was I drumming
last night?

352
00:17:06,578 --> 00:17:07,746
My wrist hurts.

353
00:17:07,826 --> 00:17:10,273
No, you slipped
in Nancy's vomit.

354
00:17:10,361 --> 00:17:13,033
Ohh. You know, I don't
think we're gonna be able

355
00:17:13,138 --> 00:17:15,178
to do this every Wednesday.
Hmm.

356
00:17:15,321 --> 00:17:18,810
Did you guys know that you can
find anything on the Internet?

357
00:17:18,922 --> 00:17:20,690
<i>And I mean anything?</i>

358
00:17:20,930 --> 00:17:22,090
Like what exactly?

359
00:17:22,170 --> 00:17:26,185
Like, I looked up "Moby dick,"
the hard edition.

360
00:17:26,298 --> 00:17:27,321
Oh. You didn't.

361
00:17:27,434 --> 00:17:30,681
And you can't believe what came up.
Oh, I'm afraid we can.

362
00:17:30,786 --> 00:17:33,321
All these first editions
and stuff.

363
00:17:33,409 --> 00:17:36,218
It's all right there
on rareprintbooks. Com.

364
00:17:36,321 --> 00:17:39,386
Oh. See?
Oh. Good for you, brick.

365
00:17:39,485 --> 00:17:41,081
That's what the Internet
is for... books.

366
00:17:41,178 --> 00:17:42,962
Oh, and then I met
some guy online

367
00:17:43,074 --> 00:17:44,674
who wants to meet me
at the park.

368
00:17:47,379 --> 00:17:50,398
Maybe we should have
taken him to the library.

369
00:17:50,665 --> 00:17:53,497
I can either bring
a black umbrella

370
00:17:53,570 --> 00:17:54,842
or a hello Kitty one.

371
00:17:54,953 --> 00:17:57,178
No, it's okay, carly.
They don't have to match.

372
00:17:57,282 --> 00:17:59,621
Well, I have a pink raincoat.

373
00:17:59,714 --> 00:18:03,185
Maybe I can cut it into dots
and staple it on.

374
00:18:03,299 --> 00:18:05,609
I know it's not exactly
what we wanted,

375
00:18:05,681 --> 00:18:08,923
but our dancing
will make up for it.

376
00:18:09,025 --> 00:18:10,818
Frankie, be strong.

377
00:18:10,930 --> 00:18:13,025
I am. I totally am.

378
00:18:13,138 --> 00:18:16,794
<i>The truth is,
I sort of felt bad.</i>

379
00:18:17,002 --> 00:18:19,041
<i>But it was ridiculous.
What was I gonna do...</i>

380
00:18:19,129 --> 00:18:21,706
<i>go late to work
so I could drive by the mall</i>

381
00:18:21,809 --> 00:18:23,393
<i>and buy
a stupid polka-dot umbrella</i>

382
00:18:23,506 --> 00:18:25,377
<i>for a one-time
lunch performance?</i>

383
00:18:25,473 --> 00:18:27,817
<i>Yes, I was.</i>

384
00:18:27,913 --> 00:18:31,489
Oh, my gosh!
Thank you! Thank you so much!

385
00:18:31,595 --> 00:18:34,961
You're the best mom ever! Oh!
Honey, you're welcome.

386
00:18:35,050 --> 00:18:37,162
Hey, listen, we don't need
to tell your dad about this.

387
00:18:37,241 --> 00:18:39,554
Got it. I gotta go find carly
and tell her!

388
00:18:45,161 --> 00:18:47,762
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
Hold up there, mister.

389
00:18:47,849 --> 00:18:49,505
You're a little too big
to hide.

390
00:18:51,201 --> 00:18:54,843
Aha. Wow.
Look what we have here.

391
00:18:54,946 --> 00:18:57,449
Looks like what we have here
is a stump.

392
00:18:57,570 --> 00:19:00,338
<i>Oh, I'm the stump?
No, you're the stump.</i>

393
00:19:00,441 --> 00:19:02,849
I can't believe
that you would do this.

394
00:19:02,953 --> 00:19:05,577
Then you go behind my back
and get the umbrella for her

395
00:19:05,665 --> 00:19:07,634
so that I look like
the bad guy?

396
00:19:07,753 --> 00:19:10,153
<i>You mean like you went
behind my back? Stump?</i>

397
00:19:10,242 --> 00:19:15,537
Okay, look, we were
weak, but this doesn't mean

398
00:19:15,634 --> 00:19:17,705
that we still can't be strong
in the future.

399
00:19:17,834 --> 00:19:19,905
No, this is a one-time thing.
It's just an umbrella.

400
00:19:20,002 --> 00:19:22,194
It's not like we're giving up
on the whole revolution.

401
00:19:22,322 --> 00:19:23,945
And now we own the umbrella.

402
00:19:24,074 --> 00:19:25,555
I mean, after the show,
we can still use it.

403
00:19:25,697 --> 00:19:29,738
Yeah. I mean, you can't have too many umbrellas.
Never. And just 'cause we're giving up on this,

404
00:19:29,865 --> 00:19:34,130
doesn't mean we... we gave in on everything.
Oh, no, it's not like it's the beginning of the end.

405
00:19:34,282 --> 00:19:35,473
<i>It was the beginning
of the end.</i>

406
00:19:35,578 --> 00:19:38,265
<i>In a few weeks, we had
slipped back into old habits.</i>

407
00:19:38,386 --> 00:19:44,386
Yay, cheese! Don't worry.
The pineapple slice is for your dad and me.

408
00:19:44,498 --> 00:19:46,978
What? I love pineapple
on pizza now.

409
00:19:54,185 --> 00:19:57,441
Oh, what's the matter, sweetie?
You want your binky?

410
00:19:57,561 --> 00:19:58,473
Your bottle?

411
00:19:58,577 --> 00:20:01,347
Tell me what you want,
and I will get it for you.

412
00:20:01,466 --> 00:20:04,866
<i>Stop. Don't do it. Give him
what you want him to have.</i>

413
00:20:04,969 --> 00:20:07,515
It's too late for me,
but you're just starting out.

414
00:20:07,626 --> 00:20:09,034
It's not too late for you.

415
00:20:09,146 --> 00:20:10,770
Tell your friends.
Spread the word.

416
00:20:14,545 --> 00:20:15,473
<i>She won't.</i>

417
00:20:16,074 --> 00:20:16,826
Mom!

418
00:20:18,385 --> 00:20:19,873
Coming!

419
00:20:21,633 --> 00:20:22,714
<i>So why do we keep
running around,</i>

420
00:20:22,809 --> 00:20:25,577
<i>doing for our kids, even when
it makes our lives hard?</i>

421
00:20:28,410 --> 00:20:29,537
<i>'Cause we love them,</i>

422
00:20:29,986 --> 00:20:32,505
<i>and it makes you happy
to make them happy.</i>

423
00:20:34,002 --> 00:20:35,897
<i>Damn it.
That's how they getcha.</i>

424
00:20:40,232 --> 00:20:42,263
<i>At least in the end,
it's worth it.</i>

425
00:20:42,313 --> 00:20:46,863
