Mmm.

Ah.

(whines)

And... switch feet.

Mmm.

Ah.

(whines)

A reminder. You have facials
at 10:00, ice baths at 11:00,

then lunch at La Palme
d'Or with Amir and Sandra.

I should mention, they owe you
quite a bit of money.

(chuckles):
Luis, please.

Who speaks of such things?

Whatever the amount,
it's insignificant.

My apologies.
I thought it was significant

because it is more than I make
in a year.

After lunch,
you have volcanic clay wraps,

then an algae detox
followed by your afternoon nap.

Mmm.

Just once, I'd like
to go on vacation

and not have to do
a million things.

Yeah.

Oh, and lastly, Sammy's
tenth birthday is coming up.

Oh, of course, Sammy.

You have no idea
who I'm talking about, do you?

No, I don't.

Our nephew. Jackie's son.

Oh, yes.

It's just been so long since
we've seen him or Jackie.

Perhaps we should visit.

Oh, no.

Reseda's not that nice
this time of year.

Hmm.

Or any time
of year, really.

Oh.

It's a dump.

Oh.

Let's just send
Samuel a gift.

Yes.

Perhaps a nice bottle
of wine.

Oh, or a set
of titanium golf clubs.

Ooh, maybe a simple Rolex?

Nothing chunky.

Remember, he's turning ten,

not retiring
from Morgan Stanley.

Okay, well, how about a
handcrafted Fabbrini marionette

from Italy?

(gasps)
Great idea, darling. A toy!

JAVIER:
Yes!

Though the marionette's
made out of porcelain,

so it should not
be played with.

It's more like a "do not touch
it, you're gonna break it" toy.

What child
wouldn't want that?

We shall find out.

Guess what, guys.

Some sucker on eBay
paid me 400 bucks

for that creepy puppet
you sent Sammy last year.

400? It was worth
ten times that.

That's true.

Yeah.

And it was a marionette,
not a puppet.

That is also true.

Yeah.

And it was
certainly not creepy.

(scoffs)

♪ ♪

The point is that I
used the money to book

this super cool new
laser tag place,

Zaptown, for Sammy's birthday.

Oh, wow. I'm shocked
you're willing to spend $400

for a children's party.
It's quite extravagant.

I'm shocked you know
that's extravagant.

Yes, I know.
I used to spend that much

buying extra sheep
on FarmVille.

It was a problem.

We had to sell
our actual farm

to pay for his
intervention.

The more I hear you guys talk,

the more I realize
why your dad cut you off.

Yeah. Me, too. That is why
it's obvious that mi papá

won't be returning
our fortune anytime soon.

So, looks like Javi and I
are going to be stuck here

a little longer
than we had hoped.

Yeah.

If it makes you feel better,
you've already been here,

like, way longer
than I hoped. (chuckles)

Anyway, I'm just saying
why not have the party here?

Save some money.

Uh, every time
I've had Sammy's birthday here,

it's been terrible.

There was the time I gave
the wrong kid an EpiPen shot

and that time that Superman
showed up, like, super drunk.

And then last year,

the-the trampoline piñata.
That was the worst.

That actually sounds
kind of fun.

Yeah.

It was,

until Sammy launched himself
over the fence

and got attacked
by the neighbor's cat.

So I just need this year's
birthday to be the best.

I wouldn't worry.

Sounds like you set the bar low.

Exactly. And Zaptown
has everything. It's got

the food and the drinks,
entertainment. It's great.

Well, I'm glad
we could help.

After all, our marionette
did pay for the party.

You might even say that we were
the ones pulling the strings.

(both chuckle)

JACKIE:
Well, I'm glad

you were pulling the strings,
'cause you haven't

really been pulling your weight
around here.

I'm sorry, Jackie,
are you saying

that Javi and
I are mooches?

Because that's
really unfair.

Yeah.

Who ate the last Twinkie
and put the empty box back?

Are there
any cameras here?

No.

Then it certainly
wasn't me.

♪ ♪

Javi, are you okay?

I love boba
as much as the next person

who just discovered what it is
and is somewhat disgusted by it,

but you only seem to want it
when you're upset.

Well, it's just that your sister

has been making
a lot of jokes lately

about us not contributing
and taking advantage.

I wouldn't take that personally.

You know Jackie's
a little rough around the edges.

And also in the middle.

What if there's some truth
behind her jokes?

I think it's time for us to put
our backup plan into action.

Okay.

But how are we gonna fake
our own deaths?

No, well, I meant we should get
a place of our own.

I kind of like the
idea of our own place.

Yeah.

A little pied-à-terre...

(coughing)

I'm sorry, I
caught a boba.

Ooh.

I mean, a place
to call our own.

Mmm.

Something small
but cute.

Cozy yet chic.

Ooh!

I can just see it.

Excuse me,
but where's the rest of it?

With your budget, this
is the largest apartment

you can afford.

Well, at least
there's air conditioning.

That hasn't worked since 2004

when a robin
built her nest in there.

Shame what happened
to those birds.

Take your time. Look around.

Done.

Note the high ceilings,
which are perfect for...

Making sure the rope
doesn't reach the ground.

I was going to say
opening up the room.

Mmm.

Let me give you some privacy.

I'll be in the kitchen
while you discuss.

Mm-hmm.

Well, I think there's a lot
to like about this place.

Ooh, I bet it looks even better

with natural light.

Huh?

Anyway,

some paint and furniture

would spruce the place right up,
don't you think, Luis?

It couldn't make it worse.

I think it has potential.

To be a crime scene?

My love, I-I know

this doesn't compare
to the now relative luxury

of Jackie's place,
but look at the bright side.

We can make love in
every single room of the house

at the same time.

(chuckles)

(Tonya laughing)

Oh, Javi,

as long as
we're together, I'm good.

It's about time we give Jackie
and Sammy their space back.

And if I close my eyes,
being here

is actually
kind of exciting.

Mmm.

If I wear a blindfold,
I might grow to love it.

(both chuckle)

I'm a little envious

that you are starting
a new adventure.

Though there's not
going to be too much

for me to do around here.
(chuckles)

Heads up.
If you want this place,

you'll need to act fast.
It won't be on the market long.

Is that because the city's
going to condemn it? (chuckles)

Mom, Lily texted me.

She wants to know if it's okay
if her younger brother

comes with her
to my party today.

I guess.

But I show no mercy
when it comes to laser tag.

You're not on my team,
you're getting zapped.

He's only five years old.

Kid comes to a party uninvited,
he's going down.

Yeah!
I'm gonna go after him, too.

Morning, Jackie.

You'll be pleased to know
that I went to Costco

and bought the smallest
box of Twinkies

to make up for eating
the last one here.

And also,

we have some
pretty big news.

We just put in
an application

for what I think
is an apartment,

and if it's accepted,

we're moving out.

Yeah.

What?

JAVIER:
Well,

you'll finally get
your house back,

and you and Sammy
could visit anytime you like.

One at a time.

Wow.

That is great news.
(chuckles)

(helicopter blades whirring)

That helicopter
sounds close.

There's a car chase!
It's on the news!

ALL:
Ooh!

I love car chases.

I hope it's a fast one.

I like the slow chases.

More time for the
drama to unfold.

I like when the chopper
gets really close to the car

so you can see
how crazy the driver is.

Does he have a mullet?
Does he have a face tattoo?

Does he have both?!

Ooh!

You guys,
they're in Reseda!

Ooh, yeah!

(whoops) 818!

Yeah!

818!

Ooh!

They just passed our favorite
boba place, Boba De Niro's.

Oh, look at that.
They're headed towards...

Wait. Wait. Wait.
No. No. No, no.

Sammy, turn up
the volume. No.

NEWSMAN:
It appears the driver
of the stolen vehicle

has crashed into a local laser
tag establishment, Zaptown.

The police are there,
and yes, the driver is safe

and being taken into custody.

Thank God nobody was hurt.

But somebody's birthday plans
just got zapped.

Back to you, Karen.

Worst car chase ever.

Come on, Sammy.

Let's go upstairs,
get dressed.

And don't worry,
babe. I got this.

Everything's
gonna be fine,

'cause we have a backup plan.

Ooh, what's the backup plan?

How am I supposed to
know?! That just happened!

So, I just came
from Zaptown.

They obviously
can't do Sammy's party.

But the good news is
the car didn't hit

the cake or the party favors.

(gasps)

Oh, great.

Bad news is

the crash
set off the sprinklers,

which ruined the cake
and the party favors.

What the hell, Barry?

BARRY:
Sorry.

I thought part of being
a good dad was, you know,

giving everybody a
brief moment of hope.

I see I was wrong.

Okay, so,
party's supposed to start

in an hour and a half,
but that's okay.

We've got five capable people
that can figure it out.

Oh, great. And when
do they get here?

Honey, she means us.

Oh.

I had the same question. I'm
glad you asked first, man.

Oh.

Okay, so, what do you need?

JACKIE:
So,

the party
is gonna have to be here.

Um, I need ideas, guys. Go.

Turn off the lights
and pretend we're not home.

BARRY: Boom.

Next. No marionettes.

Oh, I've got it.

Come back to me.

Uh, beer pong.

They're kids.

Root beer pong.

That's not a thing.

Ooh! How about...

No kind of puppet.

Come back to me.

Luis, please tell me
you have something.

Eh, nothing much. I've just
sketched a few simple ideas.

How did you do that so fast?

You should see what he can do
when he has a little time.

Yeah.

His plans for our possible
new apartment are inspired.

Yes, we're embracing the
lack of square footage.

He's putting in a Murphy
bed, a Murphy table,

even Murphy shelves.

There'll be more Murphys
than a Boston AA meeting.

(laughing)

JACKIE:
Guys,

stop blabbing about
your apartment, okay?

This is supposed to be
about Sammy's party.

Apologies. Luis?

You enter the backyard,

your eye is drawn
to a bouncy house

which a childless neighbor
of mine has.

Do not ask why.

To your left,
tables filled

with snacks and treats.

To your right, a makeshift stage
with instruments,

so kids can perform karaoke.

There will be
a fun cake,

and, of course, what is a party

without hundreds
of origami swans?

BARRY: Dude,

you are wasting your talents
working for these guys.

You know, you should be, like,
planning parties for NASA.

Coming from you,
that means...

Well.

Okay. We're gonna go
with Luis's plan.

It's the only one
that makes any sense.

Luis,
you take care

of the bouncy house and
everything here, and we will

take care of the food
and the drinks and the tables.

How are we gonna do that
with no money and no time?

We're gonna do it the Dixon way.

What does that mean?

It means we steal.

Okay, guys,
we're on the clock.

So just grab something
and move.

Stealing stuff
for our kid's birthday--

if that's not what co-parenting
is all about,

I don't know what is.

We're not stealing;
we are borrowing.

Except for the food
and the drinks and the napkins

and the plastic utensils--
just steal everything.

Except these mozzarella balls.

I think they've turned.

Those are pickled eggs.

Is there a different bar
we can loot?

Not one that I have the keys to.

Guess what, mi corazón.

The Realtor texted.
We got the apartment!

Wow. That's actually
kind of exciting.

And it won't take Luis long
to sage the place.

He could do it with one puff
of a clove cigarette. (laughs)

Eh, well, about Luis,
I'm a little worried about him.

He said he was envious
about our new adventure.

Maybe he would like to move on.

Yeah, you're probably right.

Maybe catering to our every whim

isn't as satisfying
as he used to pretend it was.

Any fool would see
that Luis's talents

are being wasted
working for us.

I still can't believe
you guys tricked Luis

into working for you.
(chuckles)

What am I bringing these for?

Eh.

ELIZABETH:
Oh, Jackie.

Great news-- we
got the apartment.

Congratulations!

Are we celebrating you today,
or Sammy?

'Cause if you
don't want to help...

We've been helping.
We are helping.

Well, it doesn't seem like it,
'cause we have

less than an hour,
and you're standing around

talking about
your new apartment.

Well, I'm certainly going to
miss lovely moments like this.

Come on, Javi,
let's load up the car.

You okay?

Yeah. It just
makes me angry

that Lizzie's always
thinking about herself.

Yeah, maybe. Or...

maybe you're acting angry,
'cause, you know,

you're sad or scared.

What?

Yeah, it's natural.

When you feel that someone
you love is moving away,

it can be scary.

But that's not the case.

I'm here.

And I'm not going
anywhere. (laughing)

Ah, that was good.

I'm joking, of course.
We're obviously talking

about how your sister
and Javier are moving away,

and, you know,
you're not ready for it.

Well, I don't know.

I mean, that may be true.

I just... actually, I'm a
little thrown right now,

'cause I think you just
said something insightful.

Hey. Even a stopped clock
is right three times a day.

Good point, Barry.

Uh, hey, you know
what I was thinking?

Last time I pushed
a wheelbarrow

was 11 years ago,
and you were in it.

Yeah.

You were taking me
to the hospital

to give birth to Sammy.

(chuckles)

Yeah. Good thing our car broke
down right next to Home Depot.

That was a crazy day.

(chuckles) Yeah. It was also
the best day of my life.

Mine, too.

♪ ♪

BARRY:
All right,

all the stuff we
stole is unloaded

and in the back.
What's next?

Set up

all the chairs and tables
as indicated by the schematic.

Schematic--
say that in English, please?

Drawing.

Got it.

Mucho thank you.

Make sure the cake table's
in the center.

Yeah.

(gasps)

I have my moments.

Well, you have more than that.

Luis, I think
the reason

my father took my
money away from me

was so that I could learn
to find my own way.

Um, spread my wings
and-and fly.

Like these paper swans.

These don't actually fly.

I didn't have enough time.

Okay, the point is that

if you ever want to spread
your wings and fly,

I don't want to be
the one stop you.

What are you saying?

Well, you know how
to do so many things.

Are you sure you want
to keep working for me?

I want you to be happy.
And if you're not...

I have never been happier.

I have a wonderful boyfriend,
a job that I love,

and the time to enjoy it.

In fact, thank you
for losing all your money.

Because of that,

I have gotten to live
my best life.

Well, my pleasure.

Anything for you.

Lizzie.

Sorry about
lashing out at you.

I was just feeling
kind of sad.

Why?

Well, because you guys
are moving out,

and Sammy really loves
you being here.

I mean, especially
Javi. No offense.

None taken.

I'm comfortable with my ranking.

And we will
always be here for Sammy.

And by "we," I mean mostly Javi.
(chuckles)

Is there something else
you want to say?

Yeah.

Maybe Sammy's not the only one
that likes you being here.

What do you mean?

Don't make me say it.

Oh, I'm gonna make you say it.

Okay.

Since it's just the two of us...

The last six months,

with you here,

things have been... easier

and way better.

And I know this wasn't
gonna be permanent,

but... I guess
I just thought

maybe it'd be longer,

that we were all together.

Wow.

I never thought
I'd hear you say that.

JAVIER:
Me neither.

Me neither.

You want us to stay?

I thought we were
in your way.

Oh. You are.

Oh.

But I like you
being in my way.

I mean, today would've
been a disaster

if it was just me.

But it wasn't just me.

You know? It was all of us.

And that's how the last
six months have felt.

And that sounds really corny.

Incredibly corny.

But it's true.

I mean, I'll be fine.

And I know you guys
are really excited

about your new apartment...

I never want
to go back there.

It was a coffin
with a toilet.

Yeah.

They don't want to leave.

Well, I don't want you to leave.

I'm glad you're staying.

Now, what are you moochers
just sitting around for, okay?

We have a party in 20 minutes.

Oh, yes, sir.

You know,
I was just thinking back

to where we were
a year ago.

Thank you.

You know, Javi,
I'm glad me, you and Bijou

have this time together.

At first, I found it
pretty annoying

that Amir and Sandra
canceled lunch last-minute

just because
of some child thing...

Their daughter
has appendicitis.

Which is Latin
for "drama queen."

Yeah.

The point is,
we're lucky it's just us.

I could not agree with
you more, mi corazón.

Luis, could you sigh for me?

(sighs dramatically)

Javi, what's wrong?

Well, mi amor, you know
I love the Riviera.

I think it's beautiful.
But-- I don't know-- lately,

I think I've been
feeling a little...

bored.

Honey,

I've been feeling
a little bored, too.

Oh.

Just a suggestion: if you
are both feeling this way,

consider the life
you're living.

Perhaps it is time
to make a change,

to find a life filled
with purpose.

Mm. "Purpose" sounds
like "porpoise."

Great idea, Luis.

We'll go to Bali and
swim with the dolphins.

Yes. We will
certainly be happy there.

Mm. Mm-hmm.

Ay.

E-Excuse me.
That sigh was for me.

This might sound crazy,

but I think our life
might be better now.

Hmm.

Want to hear something crazier?

I agree.

I'm glad you feel that way.

After all,
it's not like mi papá

is gonna magically drop
from the sky, give us our money

and welcome us back home.

(chuckles softly)

That would be cool
if he did, though. (chuckles)

Yes.

Can I look?

Two more feet.

Okay,

now look.

I can't believe this.

Luis, this is amazing.

It was a team effort.

The cake, however-- all me.

Sammy, do you like the cake
made out of my Twinkies?

Aunt Lizzie, Tío Javi, this is
the best birthday party ever.

Well, it's the first one we've
been to, but I promise you

we'll never miss
another one.

(chuckles)

(helicopter whirring overhead)

Another helicopter?

It's close.

Is there a chase
happening on our block?

Oh, my God!

The helicopter's landing!

The cake!

The bouncy house!

(yelping)

This is not
what it looks like!

It isn't?!

I don't believe it.

Who is that?
