Dre: There's a little bit of me
in all my kids.

Zoey got my looks.

Junior got my work ethic.

Diane got my brains.

And Devante got
my love of Cheerios.

But Jack?

Jack's my dude.

He's just like me.

He loves sports, good food,

to read books to be smart.

When it comes
to his favorite things,

if I like it,

Jack loves it.

With one exception.

Yes! An edge piece!

All we want is
a little version of ourselves.

Vegan?

How did this happen?

Is your Uncle Johan here?

No. I saw a PETA adbefore a YouTube video

And that experiment ended,
uh, poorly,

but the ad really
stuck with me.

Son, I bought us
chicken wings.

This is our thing.

You can go vegan
tomorrow.

I'm sorry, Dad.
This can't wait.

According to that ad,

there might not be a tomorrowif people don't go vegan.

Plus,think of the poor chickens.

Poor chickens?

He wasn't gonna write
the next great American novel.

And a lot of other MMA fighters
are proving

that you don't have to eat meatto build muscle.
Okay.

Dre, come on,
this is a good thing.

Jack has been struggling

with his independence from Dianefor years.

We should be encouragingthis kind of behavior.

If Jack's a vegan,
what am I supposed to do

with all this barbecue knowledgethat I have, huh?

What -- What?
Pass it down to this guy?

Hey, the only thingI'm inheriting from you

is high blood pressure
and your chains.

[ Scoffs ]
That's what you think.

You are burying me
in those chains.

Dre!
Don't sabotage this.

This is good for Jack.
It's good for the Earth.

And it means you get more meat,
so just leave it alone.

You know what?

I think I am gonna get Jack
a bicycle helmet,

because once you go vegan,

cycling for transportation
is not too far behind.

-You know, that's true.
-Great.

Nope.

Jack went vegan.

...and my barber?

What?

Huh.
He's in pretty good company.

My barber stormed the beach
at Normandy.

Hmm.
Last year.

He's being ridiculous,

Bow thinks
it's a good idea for him.

She thinks it's good
for his independence.

Well, then you tell Bow
that she's gonna be the one

to have to buy him a bra

when he starts
developing breasts

from eating
all that soy.

Mm-hmm. Exactly.

Did he meet a girl?

I went vegan once
for a girl.

We weren't dating
or anything.

She just asked me
to do it over e-mail.

Um, it was m-more of
a-a newsletter she sent out

with lifestyle tips.

It was
Gwyneth Paltrow's Goop.

[ Snorts ]
Oh, God.

But after a few days,

I realized it was manlier
to eat meat,

so I was a meat eater.

Rawr.

Pathetic.

I myself went vegan
for a few years by accident.

Years?
Yes.

In 2006,

I came into a cargo container
full of bacon bits.

How I got that container?
It's not important.

What is important
is that those bits

kept me alive
for two years.

Long story short,
the nurse at the hospital

told me that bacon bits
are vegan.

I don't think
that's true.

Also,
if you eat nothing

but salad toppings
without salad...

your liver
starts to beat.

2 seconds fast,
11 slow.

Okay, none of this
makes any sense, Dre.

First of all,
okay, meat is delicious.

Mm-hmm.

Jack is doing this
just to spite you.

Eustace got a paternity test
just to spite me.

And just to spite him,
I gave him my brother's DNA.

So, things are...

needlessly complicated
right now.

Okay, look,
this isn't spite.

He's my dude.
He's just easily influenced.

You know,
I'm gonna put my foot down,

get things
back to normal.

Yeah, I don't know.
I'd tread lightly there, Dre.

The more you
push back on this,

the more likely Jack is
to dig his heels in.

Connor.
Mm-hmm.

He wanted to be a fireman,
and I said no,

-and you know what he did?
-What?

He set a factory on fire
just so he could put it out.

What?

That fire burned
for seven days

and, uh,
it also took down

the birthplace
of Willa Cather.

"O Pioneer."

Okay.
Point is, Dre,

Connor was just
being rebellious.

That's all he was.

And if I had just backed off
or even if I had encouraged him,

pbht, he just
would have gotten bored

and moved on
to the next thing.

Maybe you're right.
Yeah.

Yeah,
if I leave it alone,

this vegan thing
will go in the closet

next to his old karate outfits
and the saxophone.

Exactly.

It'll all work out, Dre,

just like it all worked out
for us.

Less so for those, uh --

those garment workers
in the factory.

And you just can't find
those shirts anymore.

Dre: The guys were right.

All I had to do was
let Jack run out of steam,

and things would
be back to normal.

We haven't had this
in a minute.

This is your
favorite spot.

[ Inhales sharply ]
Oh.

Well, it used to be
your favorite spot,

until you went vegan.

Uh, now we have to find you
a new favorite spot.

Look,
if you're asking me to choose

between barbecue
and animal welfare,

then it's an easy call,
playboy.

But then again,

I don't put my own pleasure
above other's suffering.

Hey, just because
I like to eat barbecue

doesn't make me
a bad person.

I didn't say
you were a bad person.

You just make bad choices.
And that's okay.

I know it's okay.

I don't need your permission
to eat barbecue.

So, then why are you getting
so defensive?

I'm not defensive.
I'm angry.

I don't want to fight.

I'm just
a little surprised

that this is the example
that you want to set for me.

is pushing back.

Well,
I couldn't break Jack,

and I offered it to Devante,
but he wasn't hungry.

You know,
I don't understand

why Jack is pushing back
all of a sudden.

testing boundaries,

don't go Christmas caroling,"

so that was
the end of that.

So, all I need to do

the $10 to $15 interest,

on the whole allowance

to buy an exclusive hat
for the doll next week.
